Johnny Holm Band Returns for RAGBRAI Route Announcement Party
Fri, Nov 16, 2012 | by TJ JuskiewiczShare
Be there as the RAGBRAI XLI overnight towns are revealed for the 41st ride across Iowa! Join us for the RAGBRAI Route Announcement Party benefitting the Iowa Bicycle Coalition on Saturday, January 26, 2013 in the Grand Ballroom of the Community Choice Credit Union Convention Center at the Iowa Event Center in Downtown Des Moines.
RAGBRAI and the Iowa Bicycle Coalition have worked together for the past several years to bring you the Iowa Bicycle Summit & Expo. This year's Summit will again include advocacy workshops and the January Meeting for Clubs and Teams in addition to the expanded consumer expo.
The Iowa Bicycle Summit will once again conclude with a cycling-filled evening of fun with the revealing of the much-anticipated RAGBRAI XLI route and loads of fun!
The evening will feature the live music of the Johnny Holm Band, who are considered RAGBRAI's premiere party band! Check out this video of the band and you'll know why!
In addition to live music and the RAGBRAI route announcement, this special night will feature:
- Silent Auctions
- Door Prizes
- "Guess the Route" Raffles
- Iowa Bicycle Coalition Updates
- Complimentary RAGBRAI-style hors d'oeuvres & Drinks
- Complimentary Michelob Ultra and Bud Light Drafts (also a Cash Bar)
- Special Commemorative Pint Glass
- Fun for ALL!
Last year, the RAGBRAI Route Announcement Party set a new record for fundraising with $77,000 of funding generated for the Iowa Bicycle Coalition, a non profit bicycle advocacy organization. Mark Wyatt, executive director of the Iowa Bicycle Coalition said, "this was great opportunity to help bicycling at a time when we really need it. Our programs are working to build bicycle traffic, but we have a lot more work to do with bike safety to reduce crashes, and safe routes to school to increase bicycling for children."
The doors will open at 8:00 p.m. and the fun lasts until 11:00 p.m.! Iowa Bicycle Coalition members and Reserved VIP Table guests are invited to enter early for a VIP Pre-Party beginning from 7:00 - 8:00 p.m.
All proceeds from the event benefit the Iowa Bicycle Coalition. The Iowa Bicycle Coalition builds partnerships, educates Iowans, and helps to establish safe and enjoyable bicycle transportation and recreation networks throughout Iowa.
Tickets on sale now: $30 (early bird rate until January 15) $35 (after January 15) $40 (day of). A limited number of reserved VIP Tables (includes 10 guest tickets) are available for $400.

Then the real workout begins with intervals, including a variety of cardio exercises (suicides, floor sprints),
plyometric jumps (vertical jumps, hurdle jumps) and strength-building
moves such as push-ups, squats and lunges.
Insanity is really an tremendously demanding
program. The Insanity Workout Program is not as new or special as it makes itself out to be.

If you are saying, "I want to grow taller",
then just sleeping alone will not do the magic. Make it a journey for the whole family, as kids of all ages enjoy taking part in the growing process.
You owe it to yourself to get the truth about building muscle.

Churches Slam British Government's Welfare Reforms
By JILL LAWLESS
LONDON (AP) â¿¿ Government welfare reforms that include a contentious cut dubbed the "bedroom tax" will cause upheaval for some of Britain's most vulnerable people, religious leaders and anti-poverty activists claim.
The measure, which takes effect Monday, will reduce rent subsidies to social housing tenants if they have a spare bedroom.
The government â¿¿ which prefers the term "under-occupancy penalty" â¿¿ says it is one of a series of changes that will make the country's unwieldy welfare system simpler, cheaper and fairer.But thousands of trade unionists, advocates for the disabled and anti-poverty campaigners held protest marches against the change on Saturday, and on Sunday four churches released a joint criticism of the reforms. The Baptist Union of Great Britain, the Methodist and United Reform churches and the Church of Scotland argued that "the cuts are unjust and that the most vulnerable will pay a disproportionate price." "Our feeling is that these benefit changes are a symptom of an understanding of people in poverty in the United Kingdom that is just wrong," Methodist spokesman Paul Morrison told the BBC. "It is an understanding of people that they somehow deserve their poverty, that they are somehow 'lesser', that they are not valued." Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, leader of the Anglican church, has also criticized the welfare reforms. The British government is trying to reduce public spending by 50 billion pounds ($76 billion) by 2015 in a bid to deflate Britain's ballooning deficit and kick-start its spluttering economy. It says its welfare reforms will save 4.5 billion pounds by 2014-15. The measures include changes to disability benefits, below-inflation increases and, eventually, the replacement of a patchwork of housing, unemployment and parental benefits with one payment called the Universal Credit. The Department for Work and Pensions says the spare-bedroom levy â¿¿ a cut of 14 percent to households with one extra room and 25 percent for two â¿¿ will save taxpayers money and will help free up social housing for families because people with too many rooms will downsize.

February 9, 2010
A reader asked whether the U.S. is still in an official state of emergency, and if so, what that means.
The answer is yes, we are still in a state of emergency.
On September 11, 2001, the government declared a state of emergency. That declared state of emergency was formally put in writing on 9/14/2001:
"A national emergency exists by reason of the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center, New York, New York, and the Pentagon, and the continuing and immediate threat of further attacks on the United States.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America,
by virtue of the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, I hereby declare that the national emergency has existed since September 11, 2001 . . . ."
That declared state of emergency has continued in full force and effect from 9/11 [throughout the Bush administration] to the present.
On September 10 2009, President Obama continued the state of emergency:
The terrorist threat that led to the declaration on September 14, 2001, of a national emergency continues. For this reason, I have determined that it is necessary to continue in effect after September 14, 2009, the national emergency with respect to the terrorist threat.

The Washington Times is a newspaper that looks with favor upon the Bush/Cheney/Obama/neocon wars of aggression in the Middle East and favors making terrorists pay for 9/11. Therefore, I was surprised to learn on February 24 that the most popular story on the paper's website for the past three days was the "Inside the Beltway" report, "Explosive News," about the 31 press conferences in cities in the US and abroad on February 19 held by Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, an organization of professionals which now has 1,000 members.
I was even more surprised that the news report treated the press conference seriously. How did three World Trade Center skyscrapers suddenly disintegrate into fine dust? How did massive steel beams in three skyscrapers suddenly fail as a result of short-lived, isolated, and low temperature fires? "A thousand architects and engineers want to know, and are calling on Congress to order a new investigation into the destruction of the Twin Towers and Building 7," reports the Washington Times.
The paper reports that the architects and engineers have concluded that the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the National Institute of Standards and Technology provided "insufficient, contradictory and fraudulent accounts of the circumstances of the towers' destruction" and are "calling for a grand jury investigation of NIST officials."
The newspaper reports that Richard Gage, the spokesperson for the architects and engineers said: "Government officials will be notified that "Misprision of Treason,' U.S. Code… Continue reading

There they are, the people who brought you every bit of the action in the WikiLeaks video and all of the other horrors flowing from invasion of Iraq. Madeleine Albright (far right, above), former Clinton Secretary of State, is a good place to start. From 60 Minutes:
Lesley Stahl on U.S. sanctions against Iraq: "We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?"
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright: I think this is a very hard choice, but the price–we think the price is worth it. –60 Minutes (5/12/96)
An exhaustive study found that 227,000 children under five (table 13) died during the George H.W. Bush – Bill Clinton regime of total sanctions against Iraq from 1990 through 2000.
Albright is distinguished as the most direct spokesmodel for senseless death and suffering that's characterized our engagement with that battered country.
But others carry much greater responsibility. The Bush administration had top secret plans to invade Iraq as early as February 2001. First hand witnesses in the prewar White House were unable to name a point when the decision to invade was made. It was a fait accompli.
Prior to the war authorization from Congress, the various intelligence agencies submitted a report that claimed Iraq had weapons of mass destruction (WMD). Many nations had WMD. The report had to find that Iraq was an imminent danger to the… Continue reading

A short production of news clips detailing George W. Bush's 9/11 inaction, including his post-attack foot dragging on establishing an independent investigation into the worst attack ever on United States soil.
Bush was clearly negligent in his duty on 9/11, not only as President, but also as our Commander in Chief. His inaction alone is reason enough to re-open the 9/11 investigation. Throw in the fact that Donald Rumsfeld was not at his post directing a defense for this country, and that Dick Cheney tracked the Pentagon attack "vehicle" from over 50 miles out and still did not shoot the object down, and you have negligence and dereliction of duty at the highest levels of the U.S. government.
Don't just ask for a new investigation. Ask for a real 9/11 investigation.…Continue reading

In July 1987, during the Iran-Contra Hearings grilling of Oliver North, the American public got a glimpse of "highly sensitive" emergency planning North had been involved in. Ostensibly these were emergency plans to suspend the American constitution in the event of a nuclear attack (a legitimate concern). But press accounts alleged that the planning was for a more generalized suspension of the constitution.
As part of its routine Iran-contra coverage, the following exchange was printed in the New York Times , but without journalistic comment or follow-up:
[Congressman Jack] Brooks: Colonel North, in your work at the N.S.C. were you not assigned, at one time, to work on plans for the continuity of government in the event of a major disaster?
Both North's attorney and Sen. Daniel Inouye, the Democratic Chair of the Committee, responded in a way that showed they were aware of the issue:
Brendan Sullivan [North's counsel, agitatedly]: Mr. Chairman?
[Senator Daniel] Inouye: I believe that question touches upon a highly sensitive and classified area so may I request that you not touch upon that?
Brooks: I was particularly concerned, Mr. Chairman, because I read in Miami papers, and several others, that there had been a plan developed, by that same agency, a contingency plan in the event of emergency, that would suspend the American… Continue reading

According to several left-leaning critics of the 9/11 Truth Movement, some of its central claims, especially about the destruction of the World Trade Center, show its members to be scientifically challenged. In the opinion of some of these critics, moreover, claims made by members of this movement are sometimes unscientific in the strongest possible sense, implying an acceptance of magic and miracles.
After documenting this charge in Part I of this essay, I show in Part II that the exact opposite is the case: that the official account of the destruction of the World Trade Center implies miracles (I give nine examples), and that the 9/11 Truth Movement, in developing an alternative hypothesis, has done so in line with the assumption that the laws of nature did not take a holiday on 9/11. In Part III, I ask these left-leaning critics some questions evoked by the fact that it is they, not members of the 9/11 Truth Movement, who have endorsed a conspiracy theory replete with miracle stories as well as other absurdities.
I. The Charge that 9/11 Truth Theories Rest on Unscientific, Even Magical, Beliefs
Several left-leaning critics of the 9/11 Truth Movement, besides showing contempt for its members, charge them with relying on claims that are contradicted by good science and, in some cases, reflect a belief… Continue reading

RT filmed this emotional footage of 9/11 first responders pouring their hearts out at a speech just blocks away from where the twin towers fell. The rally was in response to Congress defeating a federal bill that would have provided billions of dollars in health care for those sickened by toxins released by the collapse of the World Trade Center towers Sept. 11, 2001.
"As the tragic deaths of the 343 members of the New York Fire Department on 9/11 make plain, America's first responders are on the front line of this war," McCain said.
"Whatever happened to supporting our nation's heroes?" the video asks before dissolving into a scene of President George Bush at ground zero.
They passed symbolic legislation to honor first reponders:
That the House of Representatives supports first responders in the United States in their efforts to prepare for and respond to natural disasters, acts of terrorism, and other man-made disasters, and affirms the goals and ideals of National First Responder Appreciation Day to honor and celebrate the contributions and sacrifices made by all first responders in the United States.

NEW YORK, Sep 27, 2010 (IPS) – Hundreds of people who believe they were falsely detained and imprisoned by the Department of Justice in the wake of the Sep. 11, 2001 attacks are now seeking redress through the U.S. courts.
The exact number of detainees is unclear, as no lists were ever released publicly. But according to a report by the Office of the Inspector General in 2002, 475 9/11 detainees were arrested and detained in New York and New Jersey. Hundreds more were arrested across the country.
Some of these men are plaintiffs in a federal class action lawsuit against former Attorney General John Ashcroft and other top officials in the administration of President George W. Bush (2001-2009) who were responsible for their illegal roundup, abuse and detention.
The suit charges that the detainees were kept in solitary confinement with the lights on 24 hours a day; placed under a communications blackout so that they could not seek the assistance of their attorneys, families and friends; subjected to physical and verbal abuse; forced to endure inhumane conditions of confinement; and obstructed in their efforts to practice their religion.
Some of the abuse included beatings, repeated strip searches and sleep deprivation. The allegations of inhumane and degrading treatment have been substantiated by two reports of the Justice Department's Office of the Inspector General, and several defendants in the case have been convicted on federal charges of cover-ups and beatings of other prisoners around the same time… Continue reading
Memoirs reveal former US president gave order to shoot down any hijacked planes before United Airlines flight 93 crashed.
by James Meikle
29 October 2010
George Bush initially believed the only plane not to reach its intended target during the 11 September attacks had been shot down on his orders, according to leaks from the former president's memoir of his two terms in office.
Bush reveals that he gave the order for any further suspected hijacked planes to be shot down after the first aircraft were flown into the World Trade Centre in New York during the 2001 terror attacks.
He at first thought the crash of United Airlines flight 93 in Pennsylvania had resulted from this instruction, although it later emerged that passengers had stormed the cockpit as hijackers flew the plane towards the Capitol building in Washington.
The memoir, Decision Points, is due to be published on 9 November, in the aftermath of the US midterm elections, and Bush is already lined up for interviews on the Oprah Winfrey and NBC Today shows.

Susan Lindauer is a former U.S. Intelligence Asset, accused as an "Iraqi Agent" for opposing the war. Her new book, "EXTREME PREJUDICE–The Terrifying Story of the Patriot Act and the Cover Ups of 9/11 and Iraq" relates her ordeal facing secret charges and secret evidence on the Patriot Act, and the shocking conditions of her imprisonment on a Texas military base without a trial, threatened with indefinite detention and forcible drugging.
If only I'd known Julian Assange, everything would have been different.
Mine was a spook's world of black ops and counter-terrorism. The real stuff–not color coded threats. For a decade I performed as a covert back channel to Libya and Iraq at the United Nations in support of anti-terrorism.
My special access made me one of the very few Assets covering Baghdad before the War. Our team started talks for the Lockerbie Trial with Libyan diplomats. We also held preliminary talks to resume the weapons inspections with Iraq's Ambassador, Dr. Saeed Hasan. Once Baghdad agreed to rigorous U.S. conditions for transparency in the inspections, I notified the Security Council myself, and within 72 hours the UN invited Iraq to attend formal talks to ratify the technical language. By then it was a done deal. Contrary to official reports, Iraq always welcomed the return of weapons inspectors as a necessary step to ending the sanctions. Ordinary people just didn't know it.

Sometimes the hypocrisy is just overwhelming. So, it probably shouldn't surprise us that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would deliver a speech hailing the peaceful protests that changed Egypt while 71-year-old Ray McGovern was roughed up and dragged away for standing quietly in protest of her support for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"So this is America," said McGovern as he was hustled from the room by two security guards. "This is America."
McGovern, a former Army intelligence officer and a 27-year veteran of the CIA, was wearing a "Veterans for Peace" t-shirt and, according to witnesses, was standing silently with his back to Secretary Clinton before he was set upon by the two agents who bruised, bloodied and handcuffed McGovern, a cancer survivor. [For video, see below.]
McGovern, who writes for Consortiumnews.com, has been detained at other events protesting both the illegality of U.S. wars and the hypocrisy of demanding accountability for others but not for senior U.S. officials implicated in war crimes, like the torture authorized by former President George W. Bush and ex-Vice President Dick Cheney.
For instance, last December, McGovern joined a Veterans for Peace protest at the White House, which he described in an article "Thoughts at the White House Fence."
In the article, McGovern described thinking about "Casey Sheehan and 4,429 other U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq, and the 491 U.S. troops killed this year in Afghanistan (bringing that total to 1,438). And their… Continue reading

In March, 2002, American citizen Jose Padilla was arrested in Chicago and publicly accused by then-Attorney-General John Ashcroft of being "The Dirty Bomber." Shortly thereafter, he was transferred to a military brig in South Carolina, where he was held for almost two years completely incommunicado (charged with no crime and denied all access to the outside world, including even a lawyer) and was brutally tortured, both physically and psychologically. All of this — including the torture — was carried out pursuant to orders from President Bush, Secretary Rumsfeld and other high-ranking officials. Just as the Supreme Court was about to hear Padilla's plea to be charged or released — and thus finally decide if the President has the power to imprison American citizens on U.S. soil with no charges of any kind — the Government indicted him in a federal court on charges far less serious than Ashcroft had touted years earlier, causing the Supreme Court to dismiss Padilla's arguments as "moot"; Padilla was then convicted and sentenced to 17 years in prison.
Padilla — like so many other War on Terror detainees — has spent years in American courts trying unsuccessfully to hold accountable the high-level government officials responsible for his abuse and lawless imprisonment (which occurred for years prior to his indictment). Not only has Padilla (and all other detainees) failed to obtain redress for what was done to them, but worse, they have been entirely denied even… Continue reading

It was another important moment in the education of Barack Obama.
He began his presidency with a pledge to close the military prison at Guantánamo Bay within a year. Within months, he realized that was impossible. And now he has essentially formalized George W. Bush's detention policy.
With Monday's announcement that the Obama administration will resume military tribunals at Gitmo, conservatives rushed out triumphant I-told-you-sos. Liberal supporters were again feeling betrayed. Administration officials had some 'splainin' to do.
And so they assembled some top-notch lawyers from across the executive branch and held a conference call Monday afternoon with reporters. The ground rules required that the officials not be identified, which is appropriate given their Orwellian assignment. They were to argue that Obama's new detention policy is perfectly consistent with his old detention policy.
Not only had he revoked his pledge to close Gitmo within a year, but he also had contradicted his claim that the policy "can't be based simply on what I or the executive branch decide alone." His executive order did exactly what he said must not be done, in a style pioneered by Obama's immediate predecessor in the Oval Office.
"This detention without trial – what's different from the Bush administration?" a French reporter from Le Monde asked during the call.
Good question. The answer, from the Anonymous Lawyers, was technical. "We have a much more thorough process here of representation. . . .… Continue reading

The Obama administration's decision to use a military tribunal rather than a federal criminal court to try alleged 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four others means the real motives behind the 9/11 attacks may remain obscure.
The Likud Lobby and their allied U.S. legislators can chalk up a significant victory for substantially shrinking any opportunity for the accused planners of 9/11 to tell their side of the story.
What? I sense some bristling. "Their side of the story?" Indeed! We've been told there is no "their side of the story."
For years, President George W. Bush got away with offering up the risible explanation that they "hate our freedoms." The stenographers of the White House press corps may have had to suppress smiles but silently swallowed the "they-hate-us-for-our-freedoms" rationale.
The only journalist I can recall stepping up and asking, in effect, "Come on; now really; it's important; why do the really hate us" was the indomitable Helen Thomas.
In January 2010, just weeks after the "underpants bomber" tried to down an airliner over Detroit, President Barack Obama asked White House counter-terrorism guru, John Brennan, to field questions from the White House press.
Helen Thomas took the opportunity to ask why the would-be bomber did what he did. The exchange with Brennan is, hopefully, more instructive than it is depressing — highlighting a limited mindset still stuck in bromides.
Thomas: "Why do they want to do us harm? And what is the motivation?… Continue reading

NEW YORK, April 7, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — Confounding lawyers and legal scholars all over the world, Judge John Walker, first cousin of former President George W. Bush, was one of three judges of the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals to hear argument Tuesday in Gallop v. Cheney, Rumsfeld and Myers.
The lawsuit was brought by a soldier injured during the attack on the Pentagon and accuses former Vice President Dick Cheney, former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, and former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Richard Myers, of conspiring to facilitate the terrorist attacks of 9/11.
The attacks killed 3000 Americans, plus many who have died from the toxic clean-up conditions at Ground Zero.
Attorney William Veale, acting for April Gallop, learned of the assignment the usual 5 days before the argument, and filed a motion to disqualify Judge Walker.
There was no prior decision regarding the motion, and when Veale asked about it in court the motion was denied by Judge Winter. Veale then requested a continuance to seek appellate review of the court's ruling but that was denied as well.
Argument followed but Walker, and fellow judges Cabranes and Winter diverted attention to whether Veale, former Chief Assistant Public Defender, and lecturer in Criminal Trial Practice at the University of California, Boalt Hall, was properly licensed to practice before the court.
The Tuesday appeal followed a ruling by then District Court Judge Denny Chin, dismissing… Continue reading

Just one of the Legacies of 9/11
by Kevin Fenton Boilingfrogs
Two of the terrorist hijackers who flew a jet into the Pentagon, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar, communicated while they were in the United States to other members of al Qaeda who were overseas. But we didn't know they were here, until it was too late.
The authorization I gave the National Security Agency (NSA) after September the 11th helped address that problem in a way that is fully consistent with my constitutional responsibilities and authorities. The activities I have authorized make it more likely that killers like these 9/11 hijackers will be identified and located in time.
-President Bush, December 17, 2005
In the aftermath of 9/11, reams of newsprint were given over to discussing the CIA and FBI failures before the attacks; the agency had some of the hijackers under surveillance and allegedly lost them, the bureau was unable even to inform its own acting director of the Zacarias Moussaoui case. However, the USA's largest and most powerful intelligence agency, the National Security Agency, got a free ride. There was no outcry over its failings, no embarrassing Congressional hearings for its director. Yet, as we will see, the NSA's performance before 9/11 was shocking.
It is unclear when the NSA first intercepted a call by one of the nineteen hijackers. Reporting indicates it began listening in on telephone calls to the home of Pentagon hijacker Khalid Almihdhar's wife some time around late 1996. However, although Almihdhar certainly… Continue reading

Sean Bean is tackling multiple roles this summer as an undercover agent on TNT's Legends. There's struggling dad Martin Odum, socially awkward pseudo-anarchist Lincoln Dittmann, and womanizing Dante Auerbach, to name a few. (But all Bean fans are concerned about at this point is that all of these characters stay alive.)
Take our "Which Sean Bean Character Said It?" quiz here to test your knowledge of his roles, from Legends to Lord of the Rings.
Sean Bean takes the term workaholic to a new level on TNT's Legends.
The latest action series from Howard Gordon (Homeland, 24) follows Martin Odum (Bean), an agent in the FBI's Deep Cover Operations division who becomes so enmeshed in the personas ("legends") he adopts that the lines between his real and fictional identities start to become blurred.
"This guy ... has a kind of personality disorder, to put it mildly," Bean tells TVGuide.com. "He's a very driven man who creates characters and people from his past experiences. He's very good at it and he totally immerses himself, to a point where he kind of pays quite a big price psychologically."
Unlike poor Ned Stark, whom he played in Game of Thrones' first season, Sean Bean won't be losing his head anytime soon as Martin Odum, the rugged chameleon hero of TNT's Legends (Wednesday, 9/8c). Losing his mind, however, might be an occupational hazard.
The best parts of this otherwise disappointingly generic spy thriller depict Bean burrowing into Martin's psyche as a (what else, and wait for it) legendary FBI deep-cover operative, who commits so fully to his carefully manufactured false identities, or "legends," that he signs alimony checks with his alias's name. His unsteady sense of self only gets more confused when a hooded stranger warns him that Martin isn't even really Martin, that "everything about him is fake."
Yes, in case you haven't guessed, this special agent is apparently Bourne again, and if Legends itself falls short of instant-icon status (despite producers with Homeland and 24 among their credits), it's no fault of Bean's, who is riveting as he occasionally morphs into character before his colleagues' amazed eyes.
A rookie journalist uncovers police corruption in Yorkshire.
Director Wolfgang Petersen recreates a long-ago world of bireme warships, clashing armies, the massive fortress city and the towering Trojan Horse.
A young boy discovers he's the descendant of a Greek god and sets out on an adventure to settle an on-going battle between the gods. Based on the book by Rick Riordan
Heather Mason (Adelaide Clemens) and her father (Sean Bean) have been on the run, always one step ahead of dangerous forces that she doesn't fully understand. Now on the eve of her 18th birthday, plagued by horrific nightmares and the disappearance of her father, Heather discovers she's not who she thinks she is. The revelation leads her deeper into a demonic world that threatens to trap her forever.

Return to a place of insanity and blood-curdling chills in this shocking sequel to one of the most surreal and gruesome horror films ever created. Heather Mason (Adelaide Clemens) and her father (Sean Bean) have always tried to stay one step ahead of the malevolent forces intent on their destruction. But on the eve of her 18th birthday, a dangerous revelation leads her deeper into a demonic world that threatens to trap her in a nightmarish landscape forever. Based on the hugely popular video game series and written and directed by Michael J. Bassett (Deathwatch), it's a psychological trip into absolute terror unlike anything you've ever known.

anyone that uses any of these stupid shortcut words needs to be executed as fast as possible
29 terms we obvi need to totes elims from our lexi forevs
Didn't understand that headline? Don't worry–you're not alone. I had to have half those words on the list below explained to me by other people at different points. Which is a little ridiculous, isn't it? I mean, I'm not the sharpest stick, but coinkydink? Really? REALLY?
I've complained plenty publicly lately about my disdain for the term "peeps" in the past–but really, the gut feeling goes a lot deeper for terms like this. Why?
Because we're destroying our language.
I understand we're turning into a "texting culture" full of shortened and unintelligible words. But, at some point, we need to draw a line in the sand. And, today's that day.
I'm making a list of ALL the short-hand and unintelligible words we need to eliminate from our every day conversations. I know, I sound a little sanctimonious here, but follow my logic. I'm all for fun. I'm all for funny. But, the more you say these words, the more likely they are to seep into an email or a discussion with your boss. Or, her boss. Or, her boss' boss. I mean, ever sit in a conversation where someone says "Our peeps were all over Facebook today for obvs reasons. Totes." to the CMO. That'd go over real well.
So, we're going to stop. OK, fine, I'm going to stop. Because, truth be told, I'm guilty of this "language bastardization", too. More than a few times. But, I'm making a pact with myself to cut it out. And, maybe you should, too.
I'm starting with the list below. These are obvious choices–and a few were added by friends online (and for the record, I'm poking fun at my friend Chuck by using the screen grab above. He doesn't really talk like this. He's being funny. OK, he's trying to be funny).
Totes — This is a word my four-year-old would use; try saying "totes" in your next conversation with your CMO, see how that goes for you
Peeps/Tweeps/Tweeple or any derivation thereof — I've harped on this long enough, it's time to end it. Forever.
Jelly — I'm not even sure if this is real–people really use "jelly" in place of "jealous"? If you've done this, please light yourself on fire immediately; courtesy of Pamela Shamblin
Obvi — courtesy of Chuck Hemann
Ridic — courtesy of Chuck Hemann–even though he uses this word about 4,312 times a day
Vacay/Staycay — courtesy of Greg Swan
Adorbs/Adorbz — It's three more letters people. Really? REALLY? (to confirm, the cap letters indicate I'm screaming)
Twitter ridiculousness
Twitterview — We get it, it's clever, but enough already.
Twesume — I just threw up in my mouth.
Tweetheart — Remember when Forbes had this term on its cover? I still haven't forgiven them.
TwinkedIn — Really, you can't just say I met someone on Twitter and then connected on LinkedIn?
The unintelligible
Noms — and all variations including noms, nom noms and nomming; I still don't even know what this means. Call me stupid…
Amazeballs — Amazing was just too popular–you had to take it up a notch, didn't you? via Teresa Basich
For realz — Also see "For reals"; via Heather Cmiel
Awesomesauce — Awesome by itself: totally acceptable; Awesome+ any other word–not so much, via Julio Ojeda-Zapata
Coinkydink — For "coincidence" according to friend Kate Selner; I wish I was kidding.
Tradigital — via Adam Kmiec; not completely opposed to this one, but it does sound a bit stupid.
Yummers — Again, this one doesn't totally bug me, but it certainly falls in the unintelligbile category; via Colleen McGuire
Stabby — Not even sure what to say about this one–still don't understand what it means after Laura Scholz explained it to me.
FTW — Hasn't this one worn out its welcome? courtesy of Nicolena Vratil
FML — Just discovered what this meant. OMG. FML. LMFAO. LOL.
BRB –Be Right Back-it's 11 characters!!!!! via Matt LaCasse
LMAO — I mean, you've seen the "band" right? I rest my case.
Other terms that just need to go away
Guru — Honestly peeps.
Maven — I know, everyone likes to say "marketing maven." There's alliteration. I get it. It just bugs the crap out of me.
#justsayin — Popular hash tag, but it's starting to get pretty darn annoying; via Jason Keith
#fail — I think this one has run its course; agree with Andrew Meyer here
Epic — Isn't epic the new "amazing?" Regardless, overused and worthless; via David Murray
That's the start to my list. What would you add?
While I totes see peeps using obvi something, it really needs to be just obv. I mean rly. Leik rly gais.
I don't care so much about people abbreviating words or using acronyms-- I hate it when people spell things how they sound and the only way you can read it is by reading it out loud and by the. You just feel like an idiot. Need an example " I'm finna eat rhy nah". "I'm about to eat right now". "Aaah luh you gurr". "I love you girl". "Ion know" "I don't know". Do I need more?
Wow, I'm guilty of more of these then I'm proud of. But some of them I actually think are acceptable - I can't find a better way to describe my "tweeps" without that word. "Twitter people?" That sounds even more strange.
I would love to print this out and staple it to the forehead of a great many people that I deal with on a regular basis. The language is quickly becoming an awful mess.
@AveusLLC Your favorite Nancy?
@rdopping crap.
I hate buzzwords - especially when I don't know what they mean.
@ggretchko @chuckhemann Chuck's one of the worst offenders. He's beyond help at this point...
I would add BTW and maybe whatev. Just sayin'! :)
@elwirakotowska Visst låt oss "TwinkedIna". lol
I already like you a whole bunch, but if you can make the hashtag #fail disappear from Twitter forever, you'll be my new favorite person.
@JenPioneerPress You do? Which ones? Amazeballs, obviously.
@keithprivette Interestingly enough, that one *wasn't* on the list ;)
@ThePRCoach LOL OMG LMFAO
@laurabesh I'm sorry, but I can't take spelling/grammar advice from you. The person that says, "chicken tender baskettttttt" #huh #fail
Add "social media" to the list.
Why? Because nobody can agree on its definition. M'kay?
Ah! I am a "language bastardizer!" Great discussion in comments by @ryanknapp & others. RT @DavidBThomas This. Go! http://t.co/2rdwu044
@KyleFlaherty @poneal @lovecomplaining @evangu3 That guy sounds like a crybaby.
I'm going to jump in and play the former linguist card and disagree, but also throw something else into the mix. (Note: I understand the lighthearted nature of the post, but thought it would pave the way for some interesting discussion)
We are not destroying our language.
Languages evolve. Simple. Go back and attempt to read a novel or play in Middle English and you may understand some of it, but it will seem foreign and weird to you. Why? Our current modern English evolved just the same way that our language is evolving now and will continue to evolve as long as humans are communicating.
Now, is totally going to be replaced with totes? Probably not, but there is no reason it could be except for people saying "that isn't what the rule is." or "We are destroying our language".The overarching issue at hand that isn't addressed above is the problem of register - varieties of language that are used in certain social settings for certain purposes. A clean example is the use of -ing at the end of words (think walking vs. walkin'). If you are amongst friends, you would more than likely say walkin, but if you are in a professional meeting, most default to saying the entire word, 'walking'. There are five different registers in language, generally speaking.
Static - Things that are frozen in time (Pledge of Allegiance, Our Father)
Formal - Commonly accepted format, aka.the right way to speak (Speeches, sermons, announcements)
Consultative - standard form of communication (two business people meet, you talk to your boss)
Casual - informal way to speak. In this register, you have to be a member of the group to speak (soccer team, letters to friends, drinking buddies)
Intimate - private way of speaking. (how you speak to your wife, your parents, children)
All languages across the world have different register types for different situations. This is as common as languages itself. However, what is happening is that the situations in which people switch registers are becoming blurred.
More importantly, the Consultative and Casual registers are blurring together. As the boss-worker relationship begins to change and evolve, so does the formality of the language used between them. When I'm friends with my boss, and we get into a conversation, my language register can slip into casual instead of consultative.
Look, people use ridiculous saying and names with their friends all the time. It's part of how language shapes friendships and solidarity. But, now that the definition of friendship is changing (think offline to online) the way in which language is being used is undergoing the same change, and being brought out into the limelight.
you are an idiot of the highest order. One day you will be rounded up with the other idiots of your kind, put on a boat, and sunk in the middle of the ocean. seriously you sound stupid saying these kind of words and by defending them or saying that they should be even shorter, truly you have proved my point. You have very little brain capacity.
@AdamBritten I think the appropriate term is followers.
@arikhanson @ggretchko ok, that's not true, Arik. I'm not the WORST offender. And, FTR, I do it to joke around.
@CalleOdn du är såå välkommen Calle:)
@Nikki Little I can do my best ;)
@arikhanson the first word to come to mind when you asked the question was totes. That one makes me ill.
@arikhanson I don't mind vacay & like awesomesauce, though I generally use it semi-ironically. Don't like it, but coinkydink is an old word.
@arikhanson let's not elimination that one, the seniors need one to stick.
@Ari Herzog You weren't the first person to nominate that one, Ari :)
@shannopop @DavidBThomas no one bastardizes lgs. You are moving them forward.
@ewwcilantro @KyleFlaherty @poneal @lovecomplaining @evangu3 "neologisms"?
@ewwcilantro LOL. No, seriously, LOL. @poneal @lovecomplaining @evangu3
@ryanknapp Very interesting. Thanks for the more academic look at this, Ryan. I still hate adorbz though.
@ryanknapp As an unapologetic English major and lover of literature, you can dd me to the Agree List, Ryan. I never really liked or understood rap and hip-hop (I agreed with Wynton Marsalis' description of it as "Syncopated Cussing") until it dawned on me that it was more about the clever use of language than it was necessarily about the music. Now I love hip hop for that very reason.Language is NEVER static; it always evolves along with our experiences and thinking about those experiences.
I certainly get annoyed with the use of jargon but it is typically only when the person using the jargon could have been clearer or more concise without it or with plain English. Or throw-away phrases. "Moving forward" is my most recent aggravating example. I have yet to see an example where the phrase was NEEDED; it's always implied by the context of the sentence.
If you want to complain about the use of language, complain about people using words for which it's clear they do not know the meaning or people using unnecessary words or simply not being clear. I think what annoys people is that the use of shorthand in language is often simply the use of cliches. #JustSayin has become a cliche. But that doesn't really bother me because I've come to accept cliches as simply an efficient way of communicating. Were I to run across them in a work of literature, I'd likely stop reading but I don't really have problem with them in Twitter. Lastly, it's not like the English language hasn't had flaws running through it a mile wide for a very long time.
Why do we have to make a distinction between words that have an F sound but are spelled with PHs? What the hell is up with the silent GH? That makes no sense at all. It's not just me.
Benjamin Franklin was all about reforming the English language to make it simpler and more consistent.
@ryanknapp Completely agree with this comment. Language is fluid - it's always evolving, just as we are. Thanks for this well-written explanation of that.
I enjoy how you're upset at the guy for being silly, but you seriously can't use the shift key consistently.
Let's have a round of applause for augustwest630. It's a truly magnificent feat to not only miss a joke, but to comment on it 8 months later like a grandparent who just figured out how to use the Internet outside of AOL.
Hats off to you, you hero of the dense. You master of missing the point. You lieutenant of lateness. It takes commitment to produce this kind of Internet outrage, and for this, we will archive the point for all to see.
@chuckhemann @ggretchko True test: Gina have you heard Chuck utter the term "sitch" around the office?
@JenPioneerPress Totes adorbz
@JenPioneerPress Vacay was one of those on the brink. I'm 50/50 on that one. Awesomesauce is unacceptable though.
Neologisms are the only fun I have all day. :-( @tmanning @ewwcilantro @KyleFlaherty @lovecomplaining @evangu3
I was never upset at anyone. I'm still not. The shift key comment made no sense at all. So congratulations on making less sense than most of the internet. All im saying is that if you, personally use any of these abbreviations you need help. If there was a joke in there any where, the reason I didn't get it was because it was so UNfunny it gave me cancer. So go get an HBO special. Oh wait. .. you'd probably call it an Hspesh
Who said that? I can't see so well. My 90 year old wife picked picked up the phone while I was trying to use the Webernet. Goodness kids these days. Their pants are well below their nipples and I'm outraged. While your rebuttal was well worded, it too obviously missed the point. The fact that I saw this post "8 months late" says nothing. It means only that I don't consume useless internet garbage at the same sad rate you do. So mock me all day. The real sadness is how fast you responded to it. And if I missed the point, it was only because I couldn't read any more of your dreck. So you E watching losers can go find something else to do. I'm done. Attack my credibility. I don't care. You people are all beneath me, and sadly always will be. Keep defending your 8 month old posts. The fact that you responded so fast is a little disarming. How long have you been waiting for human contact? For some one to validate your pathetic opinions? Far too long I suspect.
Here is your award, augustwest630. You stand above all in your amazing abilities to miss the point completely. http://imgur.com/zlSrBBt
@arikhanson How about fantabulous? :P
@augustwest630 Abbreviations are as old as the hills. There's no evidence there's any harm in them or the people that use them are uneducated or use them out of carelessness. In fact, linguist David Crystal has shown that the fastest texters are also the best spellers (you need to know which letters you can leave out without losing the sense of the word). The Victorians were particularly fond of abbreviating words.
So here we are having a respectful, civilized discussion about all this and you barge in and advocate the murder of anyone who abbreviates a word and then start making bizarre personal attacks when you're laughed at. That's your entire contribution. Which one of us needs help again?
@Tsordi To the contrary, there are mountains of evidence to prove that abbreviations are extremely harmful...in some cases, life threatening. David Crystal has been exposed as a quack on numerous occasions. The Victorians never EVER abbreviated. Please stop propagating these myths, it's disgraceful! You need to reconsider what you are contributing to society. Stop your nonsensical commenting and go-go-go... stop wasting time calling people out in comment threads and examine your own life.
@UgandaMellyButton I think you might be being ironic with your post, but I'm not sure so I'll respond as if you're being sincere.
There is no evidence that abbreviations are harmful or life threatening. I'm not even sure what you could mean by that, and I don't think you can support it. Happy to be surprised, however.
You can't show that David Crystal is a quack. It's an empty insult.
Abbreviations are indeed as old as the hills, and the Victorians did use them. IOU dates to 1618. From 1867, we have the emblematic poem An Essay to Miss Catherine Jay:
To U, sweet K T J
I wrote 2 U B 4
He says he loves U 2 X S
U R virtuous and Y's
Now fare you well dear K T J
I will not go-go-go. A common strategy of pedants is to insist that discussion is not possible and demand the silence of those they disagree with. I need to be clear I won't oblige you in this way. (But I do suspect we won't be hearing from you again.)

Allergan Board Of Directors Unanimously Rejects Unsolicited Exchange Offer From Valeant
Allergan, Inc. (NYSE: AGN) ("Allergan" or the "Company") today announced that its Board of Directors, after consultation with its independent financial and legal advisors, unanimously determined that Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc.'s ("Valeant") unsolicited exchange offer to acquire all outstanding common shares of Allergan is grossly inadequate, substantially undervalues the Company, creates significant risks and uncertainties for Allergan stockholders, and is not in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Accordingly, the Board strongly recommends that Allergan stockholders not tender any Allergan shares to Valeant.
Pursuant to the Valeant exchange offer, Allergan stockholders would exchange each share of common stock of the Company for 0.83 shares of Valeant common stock and $72.00 in cash, or subject to proration, an amount of cash or a number of Valeant common shares with the implied value set forth in the exchange offer (the "Exchange Offer"). The Company noted that the implied value of the Exchange Offer is $173.20 per share, based on the closing price of Valeant's stock on June 20, 2014, which is substantially lower than the initial $179.25 per share implied value of Valeant's May 30, 2014 re-revised proposal, which also included a contingent value right that is not included in the Exchange Offer.
"Our Board is unanimous in its determination that Valeant's unsolicited exchange offer is grossly inadequate, substantially undervalues Allergan, and is not in the best interests of Allergan and its stockholders," said David E.I. Pyott, Allergan's Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. "The Board strongly recommends that Allergan stockholders reject Valeant's exchange offer and prevent Valeant from taking control of Allergan at a price that does not appropriately reflect the underlying value of Allergan's assets, operations and prospects, including our industry-leading position and projected growth opportunities. Allergan has a track record of consistently acting in the best interests of its stockholders and the Board continues to be confident that Allergan will create significantly more value than Valeant's proposal."

In the last few days I've had two op-eds published by The New York Times describing a discovery I'd made on Wikipedia early last week. I noticed that American female novelists were being dragged out of the main category "American Novelists" and plopped into the subcategory "American Women Novelists." I looked back in the "history" of these women's pages, and saw they used to appear in the main category "American Novelists," but they had recently been switched to the smaller female subcategory. Male novelists were allowed to remain in the main category, no matter how obscure they were. At first I assumed the sexist thinking of whoever did this went along the lines of, "All men novelists are worthy to be taken seriously, even small ones. But only the most famous and revered female novelists are worthy to remain in the big category." As I investigated further, I realized this didn't seem to be the case, because I was finding some extremely famous female novelists in the "American Women Novelists" category, who had been actively transferred from the "American Novelists" category to the smaller, less prominent, female subcategory.
In my op-ed, I listed 17 of the most famous women that this had been done to: Harper Lee, Anne Rice, Amy Tan, Donna Tartt, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Ayn Rand, Ann Beattie, Djuna Barnes, Emily Barton, Jennifer Belle, Aimee Bender, Amy Bloom, Judy Blume, Alice Adams, Louisa May Alcott, V. C. Andrews, and Mary Higgins Clark. And I noticed the same thing had been done to me and hundreds of others.
As I wrote in my first op-ed:
People who go to Wikipedia to get ideas for whom to hire, or honor, or read, and look at that list of "American Novelists" for inspiration, might not even notice that the first page of it includes far more men than women. They might simply use that list without thinking twice about it. It's probably small, easily fixable things like this that make it harder and slower for women to gain equality in the literary world.
I wrote two op-eds on this topic because after the uproar the first one created when it was published online Wednesday night, The New York Times asked me to write a follow-up describing recent developments for the Sunday print edition (where my first op-ed had been scheduled to appear). The story was picked up online, appearing on sites from The Atlantic Wire to Forbes to Salon to Jezebel to Think Progress. It appeared in The Guardian and The Independent newspapers and The Week in the UK, plus news sites and publications in Italy, France, Canada, Brazil and more.
Related Story
On social media, a debate has been raging over the accuracy of my pieces. At least one writer has been widely retweeted and quoted on Twitter as having "debunked" my original op-ed (claiming, incorrectly, that Donna Tartt and Amy Tan had never been removed from the "American Novelists" category). This has helped contribute to the misperception— which has been repeated on Wikipedia "Talk" pages—that this re-categorization of women novelists was the work of a single editor.
This so quickly became the "conventional wisdom" that James Gleick's latest post for The New York Review of Books repeated it, and Salon's Andrew Leonard wrote yesterday:
In the furor that erupted on Wikipedia in response to Filipacchi's article, it was quickly determined that the bad behavior she noticed appeared to be the work of a single misguided Wikipedia editor. One could argue that, if true, this made the Times' headline "Wikipedia's Sexism Toward Female Novelists" unfair and inaccurate. All of Wikipedia was being tarred by the unthinking stupidity of one bad editor.
This is not true. The "sub-categorization" (or what some are calling the "ghettoization") of the 17 well-known women I listed in my original op-ed was performed by at least seven different editors. The people spreading this false information are not doing any favors to Wikipedia. Another reason to stop this rumor is that it is not fair to dump all the blame on one poor Wikipedia editor who—even though it's true he did go on a bit of a spree in early April—was far, far from the only one. Plus, he did women a huge favor by inadvertently making this Wikipedia problem more visible. Who knows how many more years this would have continued if it hadn't been for his energetic work of accidentally exposing the sexist category rules that had already been implemented and followed by many others? If anyone wants to check the facts I've stated, here they are, chronologically. They include the editors' anonymous usernames:
