One of America's great rural cemeteries, overlooking the falls of the James River, Hollywood provides a final resting place for Richmond's—indeed, Virginia's—political, business, and creative leaders, as well as 18,000 Confederate dead. Since before the Civil War, the elaborate ironwork, stone monuments, mausoleums, and natural setting have memorialized the varied lives of the individuals who have populated Virginia's capital city. In this lecture based on his new book, Richmond's Hollywood Cemetery, author and photographer John Peters brings these stories to life once more. (Introduction by Paul A. Levengood)

Richard Good used his Timber King 24-foot bandsaw to salvage board feet out of a Ponderosa Pine. These blue pine boards were used to construct his sawmill. (WARREN GOOD photo)
Elgin tree farmer continues family's legacy of land stewardship
ELGIN — Twice honored as "Union County's Outstanding Tree Farmer of the Year," Richard Good has earned that prestigious title by careful forest stewardship planning, applying commercial thinning practices and single tree selection to maintain an uneven-aged stand.
As a result, the Oregon Department of Forestry and the Oregon State University Extension Service twice recognized Good for his sustainable forest management at their annual Farmer-Merchant banquet in La Grande in 1990 and again in 2012.
Behind the honors, though, is a hard-working, eco-conscious farmer, who values his family's 123-year-old history of land stewardship. He and his wife, Sandy, want to maintain what they were entrusted with by sustaining their healthy 700 acres of forest, using no-waste logging practices.
At the same time, they feel a keen responsibility to preserve the forest's environment for cohabitation by cattle, domestic animals, wildlife, grasses and seven species of trees.
In 2003, Arvid Andersen, a forestry consultant from Baker City, praised Good Ranch as one of the top three tree farms he had consulted. For Good, it was the culmination of 28 years of conscientious forestry management. His tree farm, 11 miles northeast of Elgin, received its American Tree Farm Certification in the early 1980s and was added to the registry of Oregon Century Farms in 1990.
The Good tree farm is largely comprised of Douglas fir, ponderosa pine, western larch and white fir, with marginal species of spruce, lodgepole pine and alpine fir.
"In 1975, Rod Brevig of Boise Cascade cruised our forest land and set up a logging program for us," Good said. "The land was broken into 10 plots of varying sizes. A program was set up according to what plots needed commercial thinning the most. These sections were overstocked and I needed to space the trees out."
Good started to follow the stewardship plan in 1976 by doing some Cat logging in Section A. In Section B, an overstocked canyon, it was a one-man logging operation. To do it, he used an Idaho Jammer to line the logs from the bottom of the canyon up 600 feet to the road at the top of the canyon bank.
The process was laborious. Good walked down the steep canyon bank to the bottom, connected the winch line to the fallen tree and then walked back up to the Jammer that pulled the tree up to the road's edge.
"I selected the trees, marked them, cut them, skidded them out and decked them," Good said. "Then I hired Cody Hindman and Tim Gilbert to haul them out to Boise Cascade, who had first chance at buying them."
In later years, he hired commercial loggers to harvest trees for him, but even then, he always followed the stewardship plans recommended by Boise Cascade in 1975 and the Oregon Department of Forestry Service's Tree Program in 1993 and 2005.
"Good stocking is 66 trees per acre," he said. "They won't grow when they are overstocked. They can easily get bugs in them and then the whole patch starts to die."
To prevent this, he kept detailed records of each section, what species of trees were growing there and their sizes to ensure that he kept an uneven stand. As he logged, he made sure to leave plenty of good seed trees behind for natural replanting.
"I was keeping track of the Douglas firs, the white firs and the larch to show their growth, so I could log them at just the right size and get the most board feet out of each one," he said.
Conservative, no-waste forest management was something Good became quite skilled at doing. The Douglas firs, for example, would give him a 2-log length, and he learned how to efficiently scale a log to get the most out of it and subsequently the best price, too.
Utilizing everything he could from each tree, even diseased trees, was an important practice in his forest
When he spotted a tree affected by pine beetles, he cut it down and put it through his home sawmill. He used every board foot he could for fenceposts, stays or as paneling in his home. Wood that was unusable that way was chipped and used as mulch, animal bedding or for the wood stove and boiler in the house.
"After Rod Brevig cruised the land in 1975 at 1-1/2 million board feet," Good said. "From that time to 2003, I took out 3 million board feet. In 2003, forestry consultant Andersen cruised our land, estimating it had 2 million board feet remaining. Since then, we did two loggings of another 200 thousand board feet, and we'll take more out this year."
Good's stewardship also means being on fire watch, especially during the dry season of each year. In August 2007, a fire destroyed about 40 acres of land just above Rysdam Canyon and 150 feet from Good's forest.
"A neighbor called to warn me about it," Good said. "I took my bulldozer, and it took me an hour to travel three miles to the south side of my property. There I made two passes to make a fire break, and I was assisted by local fire departments who arrived in response to the call for mutual aid. There was a wall of fire 30-feet tall coming toward my property. It was terrible."
Then very unexpectedly, the winds that had been blowing north suddenly started blowing south. If that weren't strange enough, it also began to rain. This quirk of nature saved the Good's land from the fury of that blaze.
Being a steward of the land and its resources is what Good's occupation has been for the last 38 years or so. This is how he shows his respect and appreciation for a family estate established in 1890, the legacy of his grandfather and father before him and a property he has loved for the past 76 years.

Pfizer Exploratory Study Measures Effects Of Lyrica (pregabalin) On Brain Activity In Fibromyalgia Patients
Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) announced today the results of studies on Lyrica ® (pregabalin) capsules CV presented at the American Pain Society Annual Meeting in Honolulu. The studies included exploratory research designed to provide new insight into how Lyrica works in the brains of patients with fibromyalgia. A total of seven Lyrica abstracts were presented.
Pfizer and study investigators presented three abstracts from the first study to use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to measure the effects of Lyrica on brain activity in fibromyalgia patients. In this exploratory study, Lyrica decreased connectivity between various parts of the brain involved in pain processing, an important effect considering that fibromyalgia patients have elevated intrinsic connectivity. Additionally, the fMRI study suggested Lyrica reduced visual activation or sensory stimulation that activates pain and affects related brain regions in fibromyalgia patients. In an additional fMRI analysis, Lyrica was found to affect grey matter density in parts of the brain known to process pain. In this study, the most common adverse event in Lyrica-treated patients was dizziness when compared with placebo. The adverse event profile is consistent with that known for Lyrica.
It has been hypothesized that the central nervous system (CNS) in patients with fibromyalgia is hyper-sensitive to pain signals. These are the first exploratory data using fMRI and Lyrica that suggests an association between treatment and changes in central pain processing pathways in FM patients.
"This is the first exploratory fMRI study to investigate the mechanism of action of Lyrica in humans with fibromyalgia," said study investigator Richard E. Harris, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Department of Anesthesiology and Research Assistant Professor, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Michigan. "This exploratory study not only shows how fibromyalgia affects the brain, it provides further insights on how Lyrica may impact central pain processing pathways in the brain."

And I'm not really answering your questions. Your questions cannot be answered. Your questions are like a person who is in a delirium, whose fever has gone very high. He is reaching one hundred eight, one hundred nine, one hundred ten.and he is in delirium. Then he says, "Everything is moving, the table is flying in the sky." And he asks, "Where is this table going?" What to say to him? Whatsoever you say will be wrong, because the table is not going at all. And you cannot convince the man that the table is not going anywhere, it is just in the room, not moving at all. That will not convince him because you cannot convince anybody against his own experience.
How can you convince anybody against his own experience? Conviction is possible when his own experience supports it, otherwise not. He is seeing that the table is flying trying to get out of the window, that the table has wings - and not only the table, the cot he is lying on, that too is jumping and getting ready, getting ready to take off.. How can you convince a man who is in a delirium? If you try to convince him you are also mad. Only a mad doctor will try to convince. No, the doctor will say, "You don't be worried, the table will come back. We will bring it back, don't be worried. We will do something." The doctor will try to bring his temperature down; when the temperature comes down the table will come down by itself. When the temperature becomes normal the table is in its place. It has always been there - it has not moved a single inch.
That is the situation. I see, I know that you are in a delirium. And this delirium is very subtle - no temperature measuring device can measure it, it is an inner, not a physical temperature. Inside you are in a delirium. Then questions and questions and questions - like flies they go on and on. I help you to ask and even encourage you to ask, just to get rid of them. This is a catharsis, this is part of a meditation.
Listening to me, by and by you will come to a point where you will understand that all questions are futile, in fact questioning is useless. When this realization arises in you, you will have a total change of attitude. Then questions disappear. When all questions disappear, the answer arises. And remember well, there are not as many answers as there are questions, there is only one answer to all questions. Questions may be millions - the answer is one. There is only one answer, the answer, and that is self-knowledge. So I am helping you to become aware.
There is a Sufi story:
A few men were passing by a Sufi monastery; just curious, they came to see what was happening there. People were in catharsis, freaking out, screaming, jumping, going completely mad. The travelers thought, "This is a mad monastery. We always thought that people come to attain enlightenment here but these people have gone mad." And the master was sitting amidst this catharsis, this mad chaos all around him. In the midst of it he was sitting silently.
The travelers thought, "Why is the master sitting silently?" Someone from the group suggested that maybe he was too tired, he may have done this madness too much.

The mountain of books....

When do you guys start weeding through books... or do you
|Thu, 05-12-2011 - 1:19pm
We actually had an architect draw up plans to convert a screened in porch to a library to deal with this problem, but realized it would be too expensive to do and that we'd miss the porch.
For really old and less important books, we take them to the swap shop at the town transfer station or give them to the library. The other ones just get stacked on the floors of people's rooms (DD has a stack that she uses as a nightstand.) We're pretty cluttery here, but may be moving, so I am going to make the kids weed out the less valuable books this summer and give them away.
I do think having a Kindle helps. I haven't bought a book for myself in more than a year, so maybe if everyone gets some type of electronic reader, we will be able to cut down on the clutter at some point.

Finally starting clomid!!!
|Sat, 01-28-2012 - 1:59pm
Just wanted to tell everyone the good news!
|Mon, 02-06-2012 - 11:20am
We're just doing Clomid, no trigger or IUI. It's my first month with any medications. I think I missed my O though. I am pretty sure I O'd CD 16 but I still never got a positive OPK. CM was different which I think is due to the Clomid. I don't think we timed BD'ing well if I O'd on that day. FF thinks I O'd CD 14...I'm not convinced. Either way I'm a little bummed out but I still never got my positive OPK anyway, so I'm thinking things are not right yet with my cycle. I'm expecting they'll up my dosage next month.
|Fri, 02-03-2012 - 7:47pm
Dina, I O late too naturally but things actually picked up a bit faster than normal on my clomid cycle. Are you going to trigger and do an IUI? Or just the clomid? KUP!!!!
|Wed, 02-01-2012 - 10:41am
Shana, I've been O'ing on day 21-23 anyway, so hopefully I'm not any later than that. It wasn't my main doctor that told me it was ok to start it, she had gone home for the day and it was from the doctor on call. I'm not sure what to expect since I'm already O'ing, I'm just O'ing so late in my cycle.
Noelsgal, FX that you can get pg and not have to worry about the SA or starting meds.

hooray for steps forward! you'll have to let me know how it goes for you, because it's probably not too far off for us.
if we don't get preggo this month, DH will do his SA then we'll likely be starting clomid.
good luck!!

Hm, Interesting that they let you start it so late in your cycle..... Usually you should O about 5-10 days after the last pill.... That could possibly put you at an O as late as day 21..... Are they monitoring your cycle this time around on the clomid? That is the best way to go about it, make sure the medication works right, and doesn't overestimates you.. Everyone response differently to clomid, some react well to 50mgs and some doesn't respond until 200mgs, or not at all... GL to you!

A 50-year-old man wanting a hot shave suffered a gash under his eye after a can of shaving cream blew up and shot aluminum chards at his face, according to a report.
The can blew up because he was heating it on the kitchen stove, tampabay.com reported.
It happened Wednesday in Largo, where one fire official told the website the move was "not a good idea, in my estimation."

Torrington hosts film festival
Warner Theatre returns to cinema roots
|'I Own You' is among the comedy shorts to be screened at the Connecticut Film Festival in Torrington, about a black man who marries a white girl and discovers her family used to own his. Credit: Contributed
After traipsing to venues throughout the state for the past half-decade, the Connecticut Film Festival will bring its festivities to Torrington for the first time this month.
Once a movie palace, the Warner Theatre in Torrington will return to its roots as a newly added venue for the festival that showcases independent films with budgets ranging from a few bucks to a few million dollars.
The festival, fashioned as a statewide event to bolster Connecticut's efforts to emerge as a movie-making and celluloid-centered mecca, has evolved since its inception. What started in 2004 as a festival staged in Bethel graduated to one that traipses across the state and ends with a days-long, awards- and party-laden event.
In 2006, the festival expanded to eight cities and towns that offered screenings and events during the same week. Finding that model a logistical nightmare, organizers retooled the festival to a year-round, kind of traveling road show. Since, screenings and smaller, so-called weekend "mini-festivals" in locales like Norwalk have complemented a larger, weeklong festival proper. Held in Danbury in recent years, the culminating festival last year screened more than 100 films and included industry workshops, red-carpet events as well as accompanying music and digital media components.
In May, the big, downtown Danbury festival attracted an estimated 8,000 people. This year, the bigger, weeklong culminating event — replete with awards for films in categories ranging from comedies to documentaries to shorts — will likely be held over six to 10 days in late September.
In 2008, the mini-festivals staged in cities from Bethel to New Haven attracted an estimated 4,500 people across nine weekends. The addition of Torrington this month, along with another recent expansion to The Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford, brings the number of regional venues for the festival to eight, counting venues with established relationships. Organizers may yet add two or three locales.
The push into Torrington continues to work toward the goal of creating a statewide celluloid network and spreading independent film to all corners of the state, the festival's executive director explained last week.
"My goal was to spread to prominent communities that were strategically spread throughout the state," said Tom Carruthers, executive director for the festival.
The screenings continue in Torrington in December and January, with plans for a slightly larger slate of events in February. Carruthers anticipated a weekend featuring screenings of close to 45 films and perhaps a dozen educational events, workshops and panels.
"I think it's going to be very successful, because the Warner is a great partner," said Carruthers, who approached officials there last winter after years of fantasizing about adding the venue to the festival roster. He was intrigued by its location at the gateway to communities in the far reaches of the Northwest Corner and was invigorated by the atmosphere after meeting with leaders pushing to grow Torrington as a center of arts and culture. "Torrington's going through this great renaissance right now. There's such a positive energy about what's going on there."
Warner officials considered the festival a good fit, for the venue and the city. They hope it flourishes as a "signature event" — an uncommon, unique offering that makes it a distinctive destination to not only existing patrons but new crowds, as well.
"One of the principal things I've been working on for the last five years was, we really wanted to get films and movies back into the theater... because of our history and our legacy," said the theater's executive director, James Patrick.
The Warner's name nods to its silver screen past. Built by Warner Bros. in 1931, crowds used to pack what now serves as its main theater — which boasts 1,700 seats today but had closer to 1,800 before its renovation into a modern-day performing arts center — to see first-run movies. It was one of four local movie houses. The theater endured a stagnant period in ensuing decades, but reopened as a performing arts center in 1983 and received an $8 million overhaul that was completed in 2002. Since, adjacent areas have been constructed to serve different purposes, including the 300-seat Nancy Marine Studio Theatre, which has been outfitted partly for film screenings.
"It's actually a perfect space, just perfect for film" said Patrick, listing attributes from its new screen and projector to a state-of-the-art surround sound system.
Plans for the expanded film festival events in early February will incorporate workshop space in the theater's Center for Arts Education, and other areas for post-show cocktail parties. Since 2004, the theater has played host to a handful of film screenings.
Patrick, who will depart his post next month for a job out west, fondly recalled the scent of popcorn wafting through the air as close to 900 people packed one screening as part of a children's cartoon festival the Warner hosted.
"That was one of my favorite moments," he said.
If You Go:
See independent films as part of the traveling Connecticut Film Festival at Torrington's Warner Theatre this month. The festival migrates to four other venues across the state before culminating with a bigger, annual weeklong festival proper. The Warner will screen the first two films in its run for the festival on Nov. 18. They are:
"Last Stop of Paul," at 7 p.m. This film, picked up by the cable network Showtime for a television series that was slated to launch in October, centers around two friends who embark on a low-budget road trip around the world. They pose as travel writers to stay where they want. The filmmakers, according to the Connecticut Film Festival, cast the film as they traveled from country to country and acted the parts by grabbing people on the streets to act as crew with a bare-bones amount of equipment.
"L.A. Comedy Shorts," at 9 p.m., displays the best comedy shorts from the like-named, California festival. One of the films spoofs OnStar navigation, with a character who interacts with a car owner and becomes too intimate.
Tickets are $8.50, or a dollar less for students and seniors.
Coming attractions:
On Dec. 16, the Warner will screen the Connecticut Film Festival's "Audience Favorite" winner, "The Baker" at 7 p.m., followed by the festival's "Connecticut Filmmaker" award winner, "Searching for the 4th Nail" about a filmmaker's effort to understand America's mysterious Roma Gypsy culture.
In early February, the festival will screen several movies and play host to workshops and industry parties.

Jamison on Davis foul: 'My life flashed before me'
Before yesterday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Glen Davis again denied intentionally hurting Shaq, although Celtics Hub's Zach Lowe has found video evidence that he might have done so.
Then, he played the game and almost killed Antawn Jamison. Jamison made an upfake at the three-point line, and Big Baby bit on it big-time. As Jamison looked up, the silhouette of Davis' flying body cast against the rafters must have looked more like a meteor headed straight for Jamison's head than just a power forward playing bad defense.
Jamison's thoughts at that point were about saving his life, not getting the shot up. (FanHouse)
"My life flashed before me," Jamison said of seeing all of Davis' 290 pounds flying at him. He added it was "definitely not a dirty play."
Davis, 290 pounds? In his bra.
Back to the play, it wasn't dirty. But it sure as hell must have been scary to look up and see a UFO coming straight at your dome.

Score from 786 reviews Very good
Room was big, beds were comfortabel Personnel was friendly but not very capable to fix the main problem with the alarm
The biggest problem was a broken alarm that kept beeping all night and basically kept us out of our sleep. They said they were not able to fix it. Since we especially booked this place to rest from our flight this was really annoying. The bathroom was not very clean and the shower could not be mounted to the wall (broken). Room was very cold (but it was winter)
Large rooms
Rooms too dark , not enough lights.
Very available and kind staff Price $$ Location : close to airport
Quite old room which should be refreshed
The staff is flexible to assist and help you with small and things that they don't need to do. Drawing a map with the best routes to take and offering to take you to place further than 20km from their venue. Breakfast is excellent. Very large rooms with a shower and a bath.
This area is close to the airport, still, it is in an area that is moderately safe, not very safe.
Location to airport
Shower in bath;
The room space was good.close to the airport and a shopping complex.
We were bitten by mosquitoes during the night. If you can pass it on to the hotel management to carry out regular sprays for Mosquitos.
Friendly staff. Helpful staff. Quiet. Value for money
There were no drinks on sale, before supper, on the day I arrived. Had to walk to the shops.
1. The only plus was it was close to the airport
1. Very poor service. The airport shuttle was an hour late in spite of email and phone reminders prior to our arrival. When it did arrive it could not accommodate all of us and our luggage - again in spite of every detail having been provided and acknowledged by the hotel. 2. The hotel was seedy to say the least and felt unsafe. 3. Not enough towels were provided in the 4 seater room and there was no hot water in 2 of the double rooms. 4. Took one look at the breakfast and decided to go elsewhere. Would not return and would not recommend.

FIFA Football 2002

|Single-player, Multiplayer, Online multiplayer
GameCube optical disc
FIFA Football 2002 (known as FIFA Soccer 2002 in North America) commonly known as FIFA 2002, is a football video game released in November 2001, produced by Electronic Arts and released by EA Sports. FIFA 2002 is the ninth game in the FIFA series.
Power bars for passes were introduced, and dribbling reduced in order to attain a higher challenge level. The power bar can also be customised to suit the gamer's preference. The game also includes club emblems for many more European clubs as well as for major Dutch clubs such as PSV, AFC Ajax and Feyenoord, although there was no Dutch league of any kind (they were under the "Rest of World" header). This game also features, for the first time, the Swiss Super League, at the cost of excluding the Greek League. A card reward system licensed from Panini was also introduced where, after winning a particular competition, a star player card is unlocked. There is also a bonus game with the nations that had automatically qualified for the 2002 World Cup (France, Japan and South Korea), in which the player tries to improve the FIFA ranking of their chosen team by participating in international friendlies.
Many of the international teams in the game are not licensed (some of them down to the players' names like the Netherlands), as well as smaller countries such as Barbados, who were only given numbers as player names. Also, to date, this was the last FIFA edition (not counting the World Cup versions) to feature the Japanese national team, since Japan Football Association would go on to concede exclusive rights to Konami's Pro Evolution Soccer series.
FIFA Football 2002 ran for 10 years as the last FIFA to have only one person as cover, before Lionel Messi appeared alone on FIFA 13.
The soundtrack for this game is made up of a selection of tracks primarily from artists signed to electronic music label Ministry of Sound, while the theme song is supplied by Gorillaz, represented commercially by Virgin Records.
- BT - "Never Gonna Come Back Down (Hybrid's Echoplex Dub)"
- Cirrus - "Stop and Panic"
- Conjure One - "Redemption (Max Graham Dead Sea Remix)
- DJ Tiësto - "Flight 643"
- Gorillaz - "19-2000 (Soulchild Remix)"
- Gouryella - "Tenshi"
- Issi Noho - "First Snow (General Midi Remix)"
- R4 - "Revolution"
- DJ Sandy vs. Housetrap - "Overdrive (Junkie XL Remix)"
- Schiller - "Das Glockenspiel (DJ Tiësto Remix)"
- Terpsichord - "The Bells"
- The Edison Factor - "Repeat the Sequence"
- Vitae - "Energy Flow"
The game received generally favourable reviews. In the PC version, GameSpot stated "EA Sports decided to key on gameplay this time around, and in the process it has successfully propelled the game dangerously close to reality. This should sit well with anyone who truly appreciates the nuances, subtlety, and pace of the real-world sport."[5] GameZone noted "This game transcends previous incarnations of the sport, enlivening the screen with realistic game play, and lively graphical elements."[6] In contrast, IGN commented "The only decent camera angle in the game is side on, so you cannot aim accurately because you can't see all of the net."[7]
In the PS2 version, GameSpot noted "With the addition of enhanced graphics, as well as an all-new passing system, fans of soccer will find that this latest FIFA game is the most challenging, most realistic, and also the greatest yet."[8] GameZone commented "The result is a next generation soccer game that is enjoyable to play and more importantly, an accurate simulation of how the game is actually played by the pros."[9] IGN stated "It still has some ways to go before it replaces Konami's series ["ISS Pro Evolution"] in the hearts and minds of many soccer diehards, but as is FIFA Soccer 2002 is a splendid soccer title."[10]

Film review: 'Shutter Island'
Date: February 24, 2010
by: Pam Nadon | Film critic
Martin Scorsese is "the definitive filmmaker of our time." A scholar of cinema, his movies are always clearly unique and yet echo some of the greatest films ever made. His new release, "Shutter Island," is a nerve-shattering head spinner that will mess with your mind long after exiting the theater.
In 1954, two U.S. Marshals, Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo), are assigned to investigate the disappearance of a child murderer from a prison/hospital for the criminally insane. Shutter Island, miles off the coast of Boston, is accessible only by boat and houses only the most violent mental patients.
From the get-go, subtle clues are delicately dropped pertaining to Teddy's perception of reality. He is haunted by dreams of his dead wife (Michelle Williams), and they are deeply disturbing. If that's not sufficiently spooky, he also has horrific flashbacks of liberating Dachau. The prison medical director, Dr. Cawley (the ever charming Ben Kingsley), treats everyone as though they're a potential patient and that doesn't sit well with the fragile G-man.
The pressures within the dark halls of the asylum are reflective of those on the outside. Concerns regarding experimental psychotropic drug therapy and lobotomies somewhat parallel those of Cold War paranoia, HUAC hearings and the A-bomb. Scorsese mandates that his audience pay strict attention to details, lest it be lost in the quagmire of Shutter Island's seduction.
Scorsese, admittedly, is hugely influenced by the works of Alfred Hitchcock, and it's abundantly evident in "Shutter Island." Stunning visuals and exquisite imagery are as riveting as the unsettling subject matter. Employing Hitchcock's signature point-of-view shots intensely enhance the dichotomy existing within each character's psyche.
A slew of stars (perfectly cast by the ever-astute Ellen Lewis) give exceptional performances. Many have little screen time but leave an indelible impact. Max von Sydow, Emily Mortimer, Patricia Clarkson, Jackie Earle Haley, Ted Levine and Elia Koteas together manage in scaring socks off. DiCaprio, an actor who has evolved into one of the greatest artists in the business, gives the best performance of his career in this film.
At the end of "Shutter Island," the question is asked, "Is it better to live as a monster or die a good man?" I didn't quite get it. But I did get the feeling that this extraordinary piece of filmmaking definitely deserved a second viewing, as do all of Scorsese's movies.

Dear all,
We have Sophos Enterprise Console 184.108.40.2061 installed up and running but I'm afraid it has been some what neglected for sometime.....
We have loads of machine with suspicious behaviour:
My question is this, there a place to centrally manage this (ok certain exe etc)? Basically anyway of doing this on multiple PC's and not doing it one by one!
A few with virus on:
Do you have to go around each machine removing the virus manually and then ok and clean the alerts on the server or is there a better way?
And basically any tips and tricks anyone has so I can clean up our Sophos EM console without having to go round loads of machines!

Sports Business Journal reported this week that not one potential first round NFL draft pick has signed a shoe deal.

Bangladesh shuts Islamist website after blogger murder
Published on Feb 17, 2013 3:15 PM
DHAKA (AFP) - Bangladesh has shut down a blog site after it was linked to the murder of a anti-Islamist blogger who helped organise protests against the leaders of the largest Islamic party, officials said on Sunday.
Blogger Ahmed Rajib Haider, 35, was hacked to death near his home in the capital Dhaka Friday night after he joined a huge protest demanding the execution of Jamaat-e-Islami party leaders who are on trials for war crimes.
Police have yet to comment on a possible motive, but his brother said Haider was targeted by Jamaat's student wing for his online activities.
Fellow blogger Shakil Ahmed said a pro-Jamaat website had last week named Haider as a target.

Sweetness and Obesity
- Adam Drewnowski
- … show all 1 hide
* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
Increased prevalence of obesity in the United States has been paralleled by increased consumption of refined sugars and fat (Drewnowski et al. 1982b; Page and Friend 1978). According to USDA estimates for 1985, the average American consumed a total of 127.4 lb. (57.8 kg) of nutritive sweeteners, including 67.5 lb. (30.6 kg) of sucrose, consumed chiefly in processed foods and beverages. There is a popular belief that sugar is uniquely fattening. Overindulgence in soft drinks, sweets, and desserts has long been thought to be a causal factor in the development of obesity, adult-onset diabetes, and coronary heart disease (Yudkin 1966). To the obese, it is claimed, many of the most attractive, almost irresistible foods are those that are rich in carbohydrates, especially sugar (Yudkin 1983).

Actuators & Controls
Why Quarter-turn Valves 'Pop' Open
- Details
- Published on Tuesday, 16 September 2014 11:48
- Written by Ed Holtgraver
We've all seen this situation: A quarter-turn valve is in the closed position. A pneumatic actuator applies an opening torque that exceeds what's required to begin to open the valve. Suddenly, the valve "jumps" or "pops" open to as much as 45 degrees or more, resulting in a sudden surge of potentially disruptive flow. Why did this occur and how can we avoid this phenomenon?
Smaller Electric Actuators Fulfill Expanded Needs
- Details
- Published on Tuesday, 08 July 2014 07:48
- Written by Chris Warnett
The conventional perception of a motorized valve is one of a large isolating valve with a heavy-duty valve actuator, usually powered by a three-phase electrical supply. However, many processes require smaller valves, and those valves often call for small electric actuators for isolating and modulating applications. As a result, the number of these smaller actuators is steadily growing.
Fire Protection Solutions
- Details
- Published on Friday, 28 March 2014 09:39
- Written by Mike Heuseveldt
Because of the potential harm and damage to people and property, fires and explosions are a major concern in refinery, gas processing, petrochemical and offshore, and many other types of facilities. Minimizing the danger requires efficiently protecting the systems that control the potentially hazardous areas of those facilities. In many of them, valve operators, gear boxes and associated components are a top priority for safeguarding. This is because proper fireproofing of these components can mean this critical equipment can be controlled during an emergency, thereby preventing catastrophe.
Market Drives Actuation in Natural Gas Pipelines
- Details
- Published on Tuesday, 10 December 2013 09:02
- Written by by Ross Wolkart and Daniel Myers
More than 200 pipeline systems in the United States alone transmit natural gas through more than 300,000 miles of intrastate and interstate pipelines. What's more, 1,400 compressor stations operate in the U.S. to transfer the gas through the transmission pipelines to ultimate distribution points1. As the industry continues to grow, pipeline operators seek alternatives to traditional equipment to ensure pipeline safety and reliability. That includes new types of actuators.
Sizing Actuators: It's All about Communication
- Details
- Published on Friday, 14 December 2012 12:01
- Written by Rich Oaks
The key to successful sizing or selection of the right valve actuator for a job is communication. That communication occurs between the specifier of the automated valve, the valve supplier and the actuator supplier. The selection process itself is straightforward—actuator manufacturers publish selection or technical data charts. The task of the person who is sizing or selecting consists of comparing the project's valve actuation requirements against the actuator manufacturer's published data.

The attack on the Chechen parliament by militants today is a serious incident that ought to be deplored. For the Russian president, however, the most powerful message may be one of restraint.

Thank you Kneadacookie! I was hoping the small ones would be thicker but as long as it works I don't mind. I thought the big ones sounded just too big, have you used them a lot or do you use the smaller ones more often? Thanks!

Desperation is the perfume of the young actor. It's so satisfying to have gotten rid of it. If you keep smelling it, it can drive you crazy. In this business a lot of people go nuts, go eccentric, even end up dead from it. Not my plan.Uma Thurman
Only the dead have seen the end of warPlato
I am confident that there truly is such a thing as living again, that the living spring from the dead, and that the souls of the dead are in existence.Socrates
The soul comes from without into the human body, as into a temporary abode, and it goes out of it anew it passes into other habitations, for the soul is immortal." "It is the secret of the world that all things subsist and do not die, but only retire a little from sight and afterwards return again. Nothing is dead; men feign themselves dead, and endure mock funerals… and there they stand looking out of the window, sound and well, in some strange new disguise.Ralph Waldo Emerson
Capital is dead labor, which, vampire-like, lives only by sucking living labor, and lives the more, the more labor it sucks.Karl Marx
There are two perfectly good men, one dead, and the other unbornChinese Proverbs
The Old Year has gone. Let the dead past bury its own dead. The New Year has taken possession of the clock of time. All hail the duties and possibilities of the coming twelve months!Edward Payson Powell
I, for my part, wonder what sort of feeling, mind or reason that man was possessed who was first to pollute his mouth with gore, and allow his lips to touch the flesh of a murdered being; who spread his table with the mangled form of dead bodies, and claimed as daily food and dainty dishes what but know were beings endowed with with movement, with perception and with voice.PLUTARCH
It is only by softening and disguising dead flesh by culinary preparation that it is rendered susceptible of mastication or digestion, and that the sight of its bloody juices and raw horror does not excite intolerable loathing and disgust.Percy Bysshe Shelley
Can you really ask what reason Pythagoras had for abstaining from flesh? For my part I rather wonder both by what accident and in what state of soul or mind the first man did so, touched his mouth to gore and brought his lips to the flesh of a dead creature, he who set forth tables of dead, stale bodies and ventured to call food and nourishment the parts that had a little before bellowed and cried, moved and lived. How could his eyes endure the slaughter when throats were slit and hides flayed and limbs torn from limb? How could his nose endure the stench? How was it that the pollution did not turn away his taste, which made contact with the sores of others and sucked juices and serums from mortal wounds?Plutarch
Tongue - a variety of meat, rarely served because it clearly crosses the line between a cut of beef and a piece of a dead cow.Bob Ekstrom
The poetry of the earth is never dead.John Keats
Souls of poets dead and gone, What Elysium have ye known, Happy field or mossy cavern, Choicer than the Mermaid Tavern? Have ye tippled drink more fine Than mine host's Canary wine?John Keats
I like a man who's good, but not too good--for the good die young, and I hate a dead one.Mae West
Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes -- our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking around.Gilbert Keith Chesterton
Because a fellow has failed once or twice or a dozen times, you don't want to set him down as a failure till he's dead or loses his courage.George Lorimer
To holy people the very name of Jesus is a name to feed upon, a name to transport. His name can raise the dead and transfigure and beautify the living.John Henry Newman
Jesus Christ is to me the outstanding personality of all time, all history, both as Son of God and as Son of Man. Everything he ever said or did has value for us today and that is something you can say of no other man, dead or alive. There is no easy middle ground to stroll upon. You either accept Jesus or reject him.Sholem Asch
Whoso neglects learning in his youth, loses the past and is dead for the future.Euripides
Poor mortals we who crave to have it so - our grief to be deathless when we are deadPerses of Thebes
Grief for a dead Wife, and a troublesome Guest, Continues to the threshold, and there is at rest; But I mean such wives as are none of the bestîBenjamin Franklin
Excess of grief for the dead is madness; for it is an injury to the living, and the dead know it notXenophon
Learn young about hard work and manners - and you'll be through the whole dirty mess and nicely dead again before you know it.F. Scott Fitzgerald

Assassin's Creed III: live-action Independence Day trailer
Wave those flags, patriots. Watch Ubisoft's latest bit of Assassin's Creed III marketing after the break.
Wave those flags, patriots. Watch Ubisoft's latest bit of Assassin's Creed III marketing after the break.
So the game takes place in the US, it is developed by a canadian studio, and the music in this trailer is english, not american. Seems legit x)
Not bad. don't ruin it with an ingame shot at the end though. Why not just get a live action shot of the assassin?
Either go live, or go in game. Mixing the two looks balls.
Thank goodness Americans (aside from those pesky Loyalists, neutrals, blacks and Amerindians) rose up to attack a tyrannical empire that had brutalised them into being one of the most prosperous states in the world. Why, if they hadn't rebelled then they could easily have ended up as…Canada!
There were divided loyalties among all who dwelled in the states. Some from every group fought on both sides. The prosperity of the states came from the arrogant fuck ups in Europe and Asia who tried so hard to kill each other, thereby leaving a once weak nation as the only one left functioning in any reasonable manner.
A little bit of bad timing for a spot like this, isn't it? I mean i can already see republicans say "Fuck yeah, i never voted for Obamacare! Lets rise, fellas!"
What a pile of shite.
I bet some English will get reeeeally crazy over this :P.
@5 The timing is kinda the point. Latch onto all the obsessively patriotic.
@7 It's been a few hundred years. It's time they got the fuck over it.
@4 Generally speaking, there seem to have been around the same number of Loyalists as Rebels. But blacks and Amerindians overwhelmingly fought for the British, who promised respectively to free all slaves (and their families) who fought for the King, and to maintain the pre-existing borders with the Indians. I'm gently mocking the absurdly hyperbolic tone of the advert, not the American Revolution – Happy Independence Day!
"When i refuse to learn the history of a country i'll never see."
And so the downward spiral of the American educational system began.
@1 There weren't any United States or Canada dude
The Ubi Hype Shite does not work for me anymore… Time to give the franchise a bit of rest…Didnt buy revelations and will not but this until I seem some serious improvement.
@10: yes, apparently knowing things about other places is EVIL and OPPRESSIVE!!!
Assassins: Fighting for Ignorance since the 11th century!
that said, i still want this game. nothing scratches my parkour itch quite like assassin's creed.
