The Huffington Post: The Bailout Is A Secret Coup! Revolution!
Over at the HuffPo, some wacko named Larisa Alexandrovna is actually claiming that Bush created the bailout crisis as part of a coup and that we may need to stage a revolution to stop him.
It's the most novel (if by novel, you mean crazy) take on the bailout yet,
In 2000, the long fought for and long admired democracy of the United States of America began a slow and steady decline toward fascism – a Bush family tradition – with the installment of a president – a man the citizens overwhelmingly rejected (although the funny math told a still believed myth) – by a few corrupt judges on the US Supreme Court. That coup is now nearly complete and checkmate is all but unavoidable.
Let me first point you to the Bush administration's so-called Wall Street bailout bill, here, so that you can see for yourself that this treachery is being conducted in the light of day. Fascism is finally and formally out of the right-wing closet even if the F word is not yet openly being used (although it should be, and often).
…It seems this time around, the Bush family is trying the more subtle approach to open bloodshed: first create a crisis, then under the guise of addressing that crisis, overthrow democracy. Yes, it does sound terribly conspiracy-theory-esque when explained just this way. But what else does one call a criminal conspiracy to destroy Congressional powers permanently, alter Judicial powers permanently, and steal public funds?
As I see it now, we have but two options and I have long alluded to hoping against hope that one of these options would not be the only one left to a peaceful people. The first and frankly most preferable option is for Congress to immediately begin impeachment proceedings against the members of this latest Business Plot.
No time needs to be wasted on hearings as we already now have in writing, formally as presented to Congress, the intentions of this administration to nullify Congressional powers permanently, to alter Judicial powers permanently, and to openly steal public funds using as blackmail the total collapse of the US economy if these powers are not handed over. You do see how this is blackmail, do you not? You do see how this is a manufactured crisis precisely designed to be used as blackmail, do you not?
The other option, the one I have long prayed we would never need to even consider, is a total revolution. But, If Congress won't act in its own self-defense, in the defense of democracy, in defense of us – the people who have elected them to protect us from this very danger – then what is left for us to do? I don't want to see it come down to this, but I fear that it will.
Welcome to crazy town! Meet the town's mayor, Larisa Alexandrovna, and a collection of gibbering lunatics who love her work at the HuffPo!
PS: Does anybody think somebody from the HuffPo, anybody from the HuffPo, would be capable of successfully leading a revolution against anything?
PS #2: How are these kooks going to function when they don't have George Bush in the White House to blame for every ill, real or imagined, that they can conceive of?

Miami Visual Collective Hosts SYNERGY OF ART & COMMERCE IN PHOTOGRAPHY Gala Tonight
Miami Visual Collective (MVC) announces a gala event for tonight, September 28, 2013, to showcase two sides of their talent, to be held at the prestigious Border Gallery at 1601 SW 1st Street, Miami, FL 33135.
Miami Visual Collective is a group of professional photographers who come together to share knowledge, friendship and collective promotion via a web blog presence and gallery exhibits. MVC members have put together a new show with a desire to appeal to audiences from the art world and the commercial arena. The show features selected works from commercial assignments in synergy with personal fine art projects.
The September 28th event entitled "Miami Visual Collective Presents Synergy of Art and Commerce in Photography" is intended to bring members of the fine art, and commercial imaging worlds together to enjoy the show, meet the five photographers and indulge in food and drinks with friends.
Inhabiting different corners of the photography sphere, the members of Miami Visual Collective each boast a particular commercial strength in areas like - aerials, food, fashion, cars/trucks, dance and corporate - and while those elements define their commercial side, they also exhibit an artistic passion, producing limited edition collections and contemporary art for display, professional collections, art dealers, and the commerce/corporate sector.
Headlining the MVC roster are founding members Jorge Parra, Jorge Cardenas, Lucrecia Diaz, Matthew Pace, Paul Morris and Sid Hoeltzell, all very well recognized professionals in their fields of expertise.
Border Gallery is located at 1601 SW 1st Street, Miami, FL 33135. Ph: 305.649.0324 or www.MiamiVisual.com.

We chatted to an American couple in the queue behind us while we waited for the doors to open at 7pm, and they told us that it was their second visit after coming a few nights before as well.

Below are the all-time best Connie Marcum Wong poems as chosen by PoetrySoup members
View ALL Connie Marcum Wong Poems
I see God in nature, surrounded in the beauty of our earth. As God may speak with his spark of life dwelling in me, Expressed though HIS thoughts in my poetic word's birth. "Now all of my children born and reborn in this world, I will be your parent, grand teacher, and protector. Know you are part of me as your earthly body is unfurled. Fragrant flowers should be known as your sister and brother. Breathe in deeply of the varied glorious tree's blessed breath; A gift from me, your omnipotent father and mother. Each season praises that divine dominion of poetry. With each season new life emerges with the beginning of spring Into the warmth of summer across verdant fields and forestry. Do not fear as I cause autumn season's winds to blow In seeming wrath, set upon colorful trees, leaves are freed To invite winter and the blessings of new fallen snow. Receive my blessing of light that opens a direct path to me. Let it shine bright in your life, in all that you say and do. Share your delight of this blessing through inspired poetry. Be aware of your words for they embrace the real you. Others may be hurt by careless words spoken. Remember, words mean as much as your actions do. Any kindness you display by reaching out to those in need Is always a welcome gift and returned to you in kind, Only in much more abundance to help YOU succeed. As you question the heavenly stars in their distant galaxies The answers lie within yourself, if you will be still and meditate. You may seek the truth in your own mind for life's realities. I am near you always, within and without, have no doubt. I only wish you love and happiness, even though I know You must experience difficult times to learn what life's about. For you are my child and I rejoice in lessons you've learned of. Teach your children to revere and love me, not fear me, I'm here to guide and protect them, for you see, I am LOVE!" Please put your trust in me both below and above For my divine power and glory is centered in love. © Connie Marcum Wong For Brian Johnston's contest: "God's Kind of Poetry"
I carry our friendship in my mind And like a "Welcome Home" banner It warms my heart. When I see flowers in bloom I think of your poetry; How your words paint such colorful, Vivid tapestries. Even on the greyest of days They brighten my world, Shed light on my emotions, Lift my spirits, and give comfort to my soul. We are kindred spirits in our love of nature, The gift of children and the wonder of the Animal kingdom, how it nurtures us in love, Inspires us to want to share through Poetry the beauty of this planet. When you write of waterfalls I feel the cool mist on my face. When you write of trees I see their lovely trunks and limbs And how closely they resemble people. When you write about the wayward wind An awesome chill cloaks my body. As you relate the power of the moon I feel her tug at my emotions and Her authority as she reigns over the seas. The contrast of serenity and excitement Abound when you speak of the sparkling Stars, their soft glow or burst of beauty as they Burn a bright light through a cobalt sky. Tears of joy stream down my smiling face As you describe the sunrise and sunset In a rainbow of hues from silver to scarlet. It leaves me breathless in awed elation. Each season offers a new delight in what you write And our friendship grows deeper and more Meaningful with each creation. When you write of love, I feel loved. You are a blessing and a joy in my life. I carry our friendship in my mind. © 2011 Connie Marcum Wong
In solitude I dream tonight And watch a moth in fevered flight. It's drawn toward my quaint porch light And flies consumed with all its might. Through open window I can see Its desperation shared with me; How freedom in this world is light— And we as souls are drawn to fight. Though freedom's light may cause our death, It's worth the risk with every breath. I understand the moth's sad plight When drawn to the glorious light. Though it knows not of human trust, It buzzes on because it must! For Chopped II Poetry Contest Sponsored by Craig Cornish
Poet—Your words, Like garments of Gold and silver thread, Shimmering in sunlight Or bathed by moonlit glow, When shed— Leave me breathless, Caught up in their naked truth And timeless flow— And I become aware Of nothing else. © 2012 Connie Marcum Wong
Heavens are open to view in the late night sky. Celestial bodies spinning in orbit, moving Light years away, exploding out of our sight, Some on the same primordial path our World once took; inviting travelers who Roam the infinite universe, because they can! How shallow minded to think we are alone, To scoff at proof and stubbornly cling To antiquated concepts of the past. Visitors walk among us, though we Are not aware of what we share. . . They know the id is filled with fear and Programmed to annihilate that which We do not understand. The times of enlightenment are at hand. . . A special gift for those willing to let go of Their egos and open their minds and hearts To embrace the destined future.
Palm trees are swaying island style Within the gentle trade wind's flow, As Egrets glide on salty air— Then land where verdant grasses grow. Breathe in sweet scents of tuberose And let fine mist caress your face, Dive deep into aqua waters— Become enchanted with this place. Let your eyes consume the beauty, Let rhythmic music soothe your mind. You'll feel the aloha spirit— A kinder people you won't find. Go hiking in hillside forests, There are no bears or snakes that hide, Just waterfalls you'll find waiting, That flow toward the ocean side. In the distance whales are breaching, Humpbacks with little calves in tow. They share waters with the dolphins, And green sea turtles down below. Can you hear paradise calling? Whispering your name at sunrise, To later bask on pearly sands. Swaying hula hips at moonrise, Coaxing you to join in the dance. Exotic Mai Tai in your hands, Sweet flower leis caress your neck, Come investigate our islands, And board on wild waves at surfside, Cast your cold and cares to the breeze. Sailing out on sunset cruises— Take homeward bound warm memories. © Connie Marcum Wong To all my poetry friends suffering in the cold states. Come take a mini vacation from the freezing temperatures. Aloha-- Read more at: http://www.poetrysoup.com/member_area/submit_poems.aspx
History journeys along with its meandering flow as a wide birth from bank to bank has eyes straining trying to see across to the other side, far too wide. Muddy rivulets stirred up by the river boats drift by and my dreams become intertwined with what I have read and the sleepy house boats floating near the banks that the river dwellers call home. A huge stainless steel arch with its catenary curve looms gracefully nearby as a gateway of welcome, built as a monument to Thomas Jefferson and the pioneers who braved making their way to St. Louis, why it is fondly called "the Gateway to the West." I felt as if the Arch was paying homage to the mighty Mississippi with its tall shadow falling on her erratic waters. Children were waving from the banks at contented tourists waving back as they drifted slowly by and time stood still with the music of the river taverns mingling with the contrasting sounds of riverboat whistles, and I drifted along with them sensing serene pleasure into another time and place.
Earth's sphere of fire bids adieu to me As dying embers gleam across the sea In rare hues reflected by autumn trees, Swirling in motion with October's breeze. I feel the joy this season has to share In golden harvest that the branches bear, And I am thankful for this blessed year, For divine abundance I share so dear. The sun and moon take on a special glow As thunder clouds move swiftly with the flow. Yes, autumn coaxes feelings to revive, Those mem'ries of past seasons still alive. When autumn spreads her dress of lacey frost I know, in breathless beauty, I'll be lost. © 2013 Connie Marcum Wong
Oh my regal Eucalyptus friend, Your tall rainbow trunk is rooted deep, Stationary, yet your tree tops bend In constant unison with the wind. My camera can't capture your awesome sweep. Thin limbs try to reach the azure sky While your trunk fascinates passersby. An army of ants reveals a platoon Moving over bark to their marching tune. Your small leaves sing in susurrate song, A Queen amidst trees where you belong! © Connie Marcum Wong We have this lovely tree here in Hawaii. The rainbow eucalyptus, Mindanao gum, or rainbow gum is the only Eucalyptus species found naturally in the Northern Hemisphere. Its natural distribution spans New Britain, New Guinea, Seram, Sulawesi and Mindanao.

In Laura Miller's quasi-memoir The Magician's Book: A Skeptic's Adventures in Narnia, she talks about her intellectual development in the context of the books she read as a child, with a particular emphasis on Narnia.

Calah Alexander has a post up about her frustrations with Disney storylines, where plot can warp around the characters to make sure they get whatever they wanted at the beginning of the movie. Ariel's father is portrayed as tyrannical, not prudent, when he tries to forbid her from chasing after Prince Eric, even though her choice puts her entire kingdom at risk. Magic abounds to help characters realize they've been special all along, and that they deserve their happy ending. She writes: See, … [Read more...]

In the run up to the release of Catching Fire, the second Hunger Games movie, the director sat down with io9 to discuss some of the changes they made to the second film.

First Things has a review up that I liked very much of a Macbeth that the reviewer did not like very much. Kate Havard watched a Macbeth that took all the tragedy out of the Scottish King, reducing the title character (played by Ethan Hawke) to a stumbling, unpleasant man. She writes: Yet there's something right about making the Scottish tyrant so vulgar and unromantic. It reminds us Macbeth is ultimately a butcher, not a hero. True, in a more nuanced Macbeth, we'd see him as both: a fallen he … [Read more...]

In Mark Oppenheimer's most recent column in the New York Times, he speaks to a number of Mormon authors to try to figure out why so many of them write genre (F/SF) or young adult fiction.

Katie Holmes and Suri Kick Off Their Week With Crafts and Treats
Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise were out and about in NYC yesterday. The mother-daughter pair checked out the craft shop Make Meaning and then headed to Two Little Red Hens bakery. Suri brought a doll wrapped in a blanket along for the fun while Katie carried her stuffed animal. The duo kicked off their week with activities after an equally exciting weekend. Katie taught Suri how to ride a bike and they also met up with friends at Alice's Tea Cup. They're enjoying the last few weeks of Summer before Suri starts school at Avenues in September. Katie will also be busy in the Fall with plans to show her Holmes & Yang collection at Fashion Week and a starring role in Dead Accounts on Broadway.

No, it is not only not necessary is not even discussed. Your firend's request has nothing to do with Judaism as it is practiced. As a Jew it is very offensive to me that she would use this to try to justify the situation. If she is that religious she would not be dating a non-Jew long enough to consider marraige anyway. There are various ways to convert (although conversion is rare- we don't prostletize) depending on whether you are Orthodox, Conservative, etc. If you have more questions or would like to discuss this with her I'd suggest posting in Spirituality to get the low-down on conversion. It is a VERY long and involved process and should not be undertaken just for the sake of a marriage. |
This insistence seems somewhat hollow because I suspect she has been sleeping with him for years including foreskin and it seem irrational that this would suddenly be a problem. I'm wondering if she is really ready to end the relationship and figures that if she requires him to do this, he'll back out and then she can justify ending the relationship with "I just can't marry a man with a foreskin because it's against my religion." If this is true, even if he has the circumcision done, she'll leave him. That would be a sad thing. |

I want to say this to them, but our mutual friend says she will cloak herself in, "I wish it didn't have to be this way, but my religion and family demand it." And how do I argue with that without implying that her religious requirement, and, by extension, her inferring that her religion is crap? |
Still, I thought the Jewish ceremony to circ grown converts only involved cutting the foreskin to make it bleed |

The CIA and the Pentagon pulled out all the stops for the creators of "Zero Dark Thirty," staging interviews with officials and a Navy SEAL for an inside account of the hunt for Osama bin Laden.
Critics praised the movie's gritty and gripping feel but, with the film due for release in major European markets this week, controversy has erupted over claims that it justifies US agents' use of torture on detainees.
The access granted to director Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal has turned the Oscar-nominated movie into the most detailed public account that exists of the May 2011 raid on a Pakistani compound to kill Bin Laden.
Nate Jones of the National Security Archives research institute dubbed it "the closest thing to the official story behind the pursuit of bin Laden."
Bigelow has been forced to release a statement denying widespread allegations that the film set out to justify or sanitize the "enhanced interrogation techniques" employed during the so-called 'war on terror'.
Although the assistance offered to the "Zero Dark Thirty" crew sparked accusations that the White House used the movie as a propaganda tool, cooperation between Hollywood and the Pentagon or CIA is nothing new.
The first film ever to win Best Picture at the Academy Awards, "Wings" in 1929, featured dogfight scenes with bi-planes thanks to help from the army.
It was the beginning of a relationship that has grown over decades.
The film industry covets access to hardware and expertise that only the armed forces can provide, while in return, defense officials want to burnish the military's image on the big screen.
The Pentagon's criteria for justifying cooperation on any film or television project is loosely defined, but until recently has never been seriously questioned by Congress.
"It just basically says: 'Is it something that might be of benefit for recruiting and retention? And/or is it something that might tell the American public more about the US military?" explained Philip Strub, who leads the Pentagon's liaison unit with the entertainment industry.
For the Pentagon, the decision whether to work on a film project all comes down to the script.
Characters in uniform need to reflect what officials consider to be an accurate picture of the practices and the ethos of the military.
If not, then the Defense Department refuses to grant permission to film at a base or to rent out US tanks or aircraft for a production.
To the Pentagon's critics, the arrangement amounts to stealthy propaganda, with the military using its leverage to effectively censor screenplays.
"They make prostitutes of us all because they want us to sell out to their point of view," director Oliver Stone told author David Robb in the book "Operation Hollywood," which blasts the Pentagon's role.
"Most films about the military are recruiting posters," the director said.
It is out of the question for the Pentagon to assist movies with a sadistic drill sergeant, like a memorable character in "Full Metal Jacket," or the reckless, rule-breaking soldier in "The Hurt Locker," officials said.
"I wouldn't claim pure innocence to the notion of trying to shape military portrayals so that they come a little closer to what we believe is the real military," Strub told AFP.
Hollywood heavyweight Jerry Bruckheimer, producer of "Black Hawk Down," "Top Gun" and "Pearl Harbor," said the horse-trading with the Pentagon is about finding a practical compromise.
"If we feel it's hurting the integrity of the film, then we won't do it. And if they think it's going to hurt their image, then they won't do it," he said in "Operation Hollywood."
"So there are certain ways to change things, to change wording that they'll feel comfortable with and you'll get what you want."
Sometimes attempts at compromise fail, and movie makers have to spend more cash tracking down old US-made military equipment in foreign countries.
Kevin Costner clashed with the Pentagon over the script of "Thirteen Days," a film recounting the Cuban missile crisis.
Defense officials objected to the portrayal of Air Force chief General Curtis LeMay as a bellicose hawk, a description shared by most historians. But the Pentagon wanted his character depicted in a more positive light.
As a result, the production had to be moved to the Philippines at great cost.
Ties between the Pentagon and Hollywood frayed in the aftermath of the unpopular Vietnam War, and most movies about that conflict received no assistance from the military, including Stone's "Platoon" and Francis Ford Coppola's "Apocalypse Now."
But the release of the gung-ho fighter pilot movie "Top Gun" in 1986 was a watershed, reflecting a shift in American attitudes and a resurgence of collaboration between the Pentagon and Hollywood.
Strub's office receives dozens of proposals every year, and fewer than half get the green light.
He and his small team spend much of their time reading through scripts, looking for scenes or characters that are unrealistic, inaccurate or inappropriate.
But he dismissed the idea that the Pentagon coerces movie makers into sanitizing screenplays.
"The whole idea that we can force these creative people to do our bidding is quite hilarious," he said. "There are people who won't come to us just because they don't want the perceived taint of having even talked to us."

HoopsHype Thabo Sefolosha Buzz Meter
by HoopsHype - Updated: January 25, 2015 | 07:59 PM
Hawks' Sefolosha has extra motivation to face Thunder. ajc.com/news/sports/ba… #ATLHawks
Any extra motivation for Thabo Sefolosha to face Thunder: "Definitely. I would be lying if I didn't say that." #ATLHawks
"We're going to keep track of how many he gets." - @Thabo Sefolosha on Korver's dunks
Hawks 25, Pacers 21 after one quarter. Sefolosha with six for Hawks. C.J. Miles with eight for Pacers. #ATLHawks
Bulls proudly declaring we're within 10 of Thabo Sefolosha, Kent Bazemore, Mike Scott, Shelvin Mack and DeMarre Carroll
That Thabo assist for an Elton Brand basket took the heart out of this United Center crowd. #Bulls
Thabo came back out to get his man, but Al had already switched. Left Hansbrough wide open for a dunk. Bud was grossed out.
Raps miss 3 threes in a row, Thabo, the Hawks' worst shooter from range, knocks one in. Welp.
The analytics certainly suggest Andre Roberson is the best defensive choice to start at the 2. But 5-37 on 3s?! Rather have Thabo back.
To reiterate, Hawks starters are: Teague, Sefolosha, Carroll, Millsap and Antic. #ATLHawks
Confirmed...Al Horford and Kyle Korver both out tonight. Sefolosha and Antic will start in their place.
So your Hawks starters are: Dennis Schroder, Kyle Korver, Thabo Sefolosha, Mike Muscala and Al Horford. #ATLHawks
Rest for some Hawks. Schroder, Sefolosha and Muscala will start vs. Sixers. #ATLHawks
Thabo Sefolosha with nine points, eight rebounds and two assists on Sunday and somebody somewhere still thinks he was a bad signing
Singler triple cuts the lead to 13, but Sefolosha goes length of the court for a runner. 90-75 Hawks
Stan Van Gundy to the bench: "Does anybody here want to play tonight?" after a Sefolosha 3. #Pistons trail 37-25
I asked Thabo Sefolosha about what Mike Muscala was doing during bench celebration vs. Grizzlies. "You have to ask him." #ATLHawks
The Oklahoma City Thunder sent $550k to the Atlanta Hawks to make the Sefolosha deal a S&T - used his TPE to get Waiters @BBallInsiders
My estimates yesterday on the 3-way trade were all accurate - Varejao DPE, Sefolosha TPE, new TPE for Smith, Shump & Thomas @BBallInsiders
Updated @BBallInsiders Oklahoma City Thunder for Dion Waters - likely used Sefolosha TPE - new Thomas TPE $915k basketballinsiders.com/oklahoma-city-…
Oh, and for housekeeping purposes: Remember how the Thunder sign-and-traded Thabo Sefolosha to the Hawks? That's how they worked this deal.
The Thunder can absorb Waiter's contract with their Sefolosha TPE - but won't go over tax line - so whatever it is - $ coming off
Blazers foul DeMarre Carroll and he misses both, but Lillard's layup attempt is blocked. Hawks grab the loose ball. Sefolosha to the line.
Paul Millsap with 11 points, Al Horford and Thabo Sefolosha with nine each for Hawks. Hawks have forced 13 turnovers to just 5. #ATLHawks
Weekly notes column: Thabo Sefolosha getting 3-point shot back. myajc.com/news/sports/ba… #ATLHawks
The Swiss Guard @Thabo Sefolosha is having a nice little game off the bench tonight.
This may be as disengaged all season that I've seen Gordon Hayward. Carroll and Sefolosha have completely taken him out
Thabo Sefolosha went 4-for-32 from 3-point range in first 22 games. Is 7-for-13 in last 7 games. #ATLHawks

Black, Latino Firefighters in New York City Settle Long-Running Suit over Racial Discrimination
Some 1,500 Black and Latino applicants to the Fire Department of New York have settled a long-running lawsuit with the city and the Justice Department over racially discriminatory hiring practices at the nation's largest fire department. The agreement grants almost $100 million in back pay to those impacted. When the case was filed in 2007, the Fire Department was 90 percent white, even though African Americans and Latinos totaled half the city's population. Under the new agreement, the Fire Department will be required to change its recruiting policies in order to increase diversity and make the department more representative of the city's population. We discuss the settlement with two guests: Paul Washington, past president of the black firefighters' group, the Vulcan Society of Black Firefighters, and captain of Engine 234 in Crown Heights, Brooklyn; and Richard Levy, the case's lead attorney.
Fukushima Fallout: Ailing U.S. Sailors Sue TEPCO After Exposure to Radiation 30x Higher Than Normal
Three years after the triple meltdown at the Fukushima nuclear power plant, scores of U.S. sailors and marines are suing the plant's operator, the Tokyo Electric Power Company, for allegedly misleading the Navy about the level of radioactive contamination. Many of the servicemembers who provided humanitarian relief during the disaster have experienced devastating health ailments since returning from Japan, ranging from leukemia to blindness to infertility to birth defects. We are joined by three guests: Lieutenant Steve Simmons, a U.S. Navy sailor who served on board the USS Ronald Reagan and joined in the class action lawsuit against TEPCO after suffering health problems; Charles Bonner, an attorney for the sailors; and Kyle Cleveland, sociology professor and associate director of the Institute for Contemporary Asian Studies at Temple University's Japan campus in Tokyo. Cleveland recently published transcripts of the Navy's phone conversations about Fukushima that took place at the time of the disaster, which suggest commanders were also aware of the risk faced by sailors on the USS Ronald Reagan.

On March 21, 1915, a motion picture was screened for the first time inside the White House. President Woodrow Wilson sat down to watch D.W. Griffith's "The Birth of a Nation," considered one of the most nakedly racist of all time. One hundred years later, another film was screened at the White House, this time at the invitation of the first African-American president. The film was "Selma."

WGBH's Rear Window Captioning To Be Installed in 12 D.C.-Area Theaters; U.S. District Court Approves Movie Captioning Settlement Agreement.
Entertainment Editors/Business Editors/Legal WritersBOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 4, 2004
Movie theaters in the Greater Washington, D.C., area will become more accessible to moviegoers who are deaf or hard of hearing due to the settlement of a class action lawsuit, the Court announced on Friday, April 30, 2004. Closed-caption movie technology invented by Boston public broadcaster WGBH has been designated as the accepted solution by all parties to the case.
In April 2000, three deaf plaintiffs brought action against two theater chains, Loews Cineplex and AMC Theatres, alleging that a lack of captioning was a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). In November 2001, the Court certified the matter as a class Action and negotiations began in earnest to find a solution that met the needs of both sides of the case.
In December of 2003, recognizing that, "Rear Window(R) Captioning was an existing cost-efficient technology that would allow deaf persons to attend first run movies without fundamentally altering the nature of movies or placing an undue burden upon Defendants," a proposed settlement agreement was filed.
Rear Window Captioning (RWC), is a theatrical closed caption system developed by Boston public broadcaster WGBH. RWC enables access to movies as of the first day a film debuts, and for all subsequent showings in equipped theaters. More than 70 films are slated to be closed captioned this year, including the highly anticipated blockbusters "Shrek 2," "Spider-Man 2," and "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban."
Larry Goldberg, director of the Media Access Group at WGBH said, "This is a great step forward in equal access for people with disabilities. The magic of movie-going is undeniable, and we at WGBH are thrilled that the system we created has been recognized as the best possible solution for the Greater Washington area. The Court joins Hollywood studios, theater chains, and deaf and hard-of-hearing moviegoers in accepting that RWC can improve the quality of people's lives."
The patented Rear Window Captioning System displays reversed captions on a light-emitting diode (LED) text display which is mounted in the rear of a theater. Deaf and hard-of-hearing patrons use transparent acrylic panels attached to their seats to reflect the captions so that they appear superimposed on the movie screen. The reflective panels are portable and adjustable, enabling the caption user to sit anywhere in the theater. The Rear Window System has been patented by WGBH and Rufus Butler Seder of Boston, Mass.
Judge Gladys Kessler, in approving the settlement, said, "The parties decided that the provision of RWC would best serve the class's needs given that RWC is the closed captioning system with the most available movies, positive user reviews, movie studio acceptance, and the ability to make any showing of a movie in an RWC-equipped theater available to class members."
Rear Window Captioning, and its companion technology that makes theater and films accessible to blind audiences-- DVS Theatrical(R)-- are collectively known as the Motion Picture Access (or MoPix) system. MoPix is the brainchild of the Media Access Group at WGBH, the pioneer in making television accessible to audiences with sensory disabilities (captioning in 1972, descriptive narration for television and video in 1990). The first MoPix system was installed in Sherman Oaks, CA in November 1997. Today there are more than 120 installations of the systems in theaters across the U.S. and Canada. The systems are also installed in IMAX theaters, national park visitor centers and attractions at Disney theme parks. More information about MoPix, including the full list of equipped theaters, the schedule of current and upcoming MoPixed movie titles, and a FAQ are available at www.mopix.org.
AMC Theaters currently has 53 MoPix installations across the U.S., including a system at its Springfield Mall location outside of D.C. Loews has two equipped locations, both in California.
The settlement stipulates that the RWC system will be available in the following D.C. area locations:
AMC Mazza Galleria 7, D.C. AMC Union Station, D.C. Loews Wisconsin Avenue 6, D.C. Loews Georgetown 14 AMC City Place 10, Silver Spring, MD Loews Centerpark 8, Laurel, MD Loews Rio 18, Gaithersburg, MD (installation complete) Loews Wheaton Plaza 11, Silver Spring, MD AMC Hoffman Center 22, Alexandria, VA AMC Potomac Mills 15, Woodbridge, VA (installation complete) AMC Springfield 10, Springfield VA (installation complete prior to suit) Loews Cineplex Odeon Fairfax Square, Tysons Corner, VA
The settlement also requires any new theaters built by Loews and AMC in the geographic area covered by the settlement have at least one auditorium equipped with RWC.

The Media Access Group at WGBH is a nonprofit service with offices in Boston, Los Angeles and New York. The Group includes DVS, which has made television, film and video more enjoyable to audiences who are blind or visually impaired since 1990, and The Caption Center--the world's first captioning agency--which has made audiovisual media accessible to audiences who are deaf or hard-of-hearing since 1972. The third branch of the Media Access Group, the CPB/WGBH National Center for Accessible Media, is a research, development and advocacy entity that works to make existing and emerging technologies accessible to all audiences. Members of the Group's collective staff represent the leading resources and experts in their fields.

Few strands of cob web enough to scare off garden pests
Related Articles
Published: 28 November 2012
A few strands of spider's silk may be all that is needed to keep garden pests at bay, research suggests.
Draping the silvery threads on green bean leaves helped protect the plants from ravaging beetles, scientists found.
The spider's silk appeared to deter the pests, even though no spiders were present.
Even when beetles were trapped in enclosures with the plants, they caused about half as much damage as normal.
A similar but less pronounced effect was seen with silk from silkworm cocoons.
The gardener's tip appears in the Royal Society journal Biology Letters.
Researchers focused on two serious green bean pests, the Japanese beetle and Mexican bean beetle.
Adults of both species are hunted and eaten by web spiders.
Studies were conducted both under controlled conditions both in the laboratory and outside.
In the field experiments, each treated leaf received five strands of spider silk evenly spaced along its length.
The scientists, led by Dr Ann Rypstra, from Miami University in the US, wrote: "These results provide robust support for the hypothesis that the presence of silk reduces the foraging activity of pest insects leading to lower levels of herbivory.
"Spider silk consistently had the strongest impact on leaf damage, whereas silkworm silk tended to have more modest effects"
The freshly drawn spider silk sent out chemical signals that deterred the beetles, the researchers believe.
They added: "It is reasonable to conclude that beetles recognised spider silk as coming from a potential predator.
"Silk has many remarkable properties; these results add plant protection to the list and suggest that strategies promoting spiders and silk production could be important to integrated pest management programmes."

Lady Cats Drop to 0-5 After Centralia Game; Carlyle Wins Salem Tourney
SALEM – Salem freshman Dearria Watson exploded for nine points in the fourth quarter, but Salem couldn't overcome a 12-point halftime deficit and fell to Centralia 50-35. The loss came in the 7th place game of the Salem Girls Thanksgiving Tournament. Salem lost earlier in the day to Olney 55-39.
Carlyle won the tournament with a 54 to 35 win over Teutopolis. Belleville East took third place with a 48 to 40 win over Highland. Bethalto Civic Memorial was fifth with a 58 to 54 win over Olney. Carlyle's Paige Rakers was named tournament Most Valuable Player. Centralia's Abbey Holtkamp made the first tournament all team. Salem's Morgan Hawkins was on the second team.
The Lady Wildcats, who saw their record drop to 0-5, couldn't find a rhythm in a game with Centralia littered with 48 total turnovers and 43 combined fouls. Despite improving their turnover margin, Salem couldn't capitalize on the 22 turnovers committed by the Orphan Annies.
Watson used her nine-point fourth quarter to lead all scorers with fifteen points. No other Lady Wildcat was in double figures. Centralia's Danielle Meadows and Erica Starr each had ten points for the victors.
Salem returns to BE Gumm on Thursday and will seek their first win as they host Paris.

Seizing opportunities to minister on the field
Written by JEFF MIELCAREK, Director of CYO Athletics
Saturday, 25 September 2010 12:46
Recently, I sat back to reflect on the many different opportunities that the Lord has blessed me with in terms of being able to spend time in the lives of so many youth. I try to never take these opportunities for granted because these youth will only go through this stage of their life once.
All of us who have been blessed with the ministry of coaching youth must always look upon it as a ministry. Kids don't choose to go to math class, they have to; they don't choose to go to English class, they have to; sometimes they don't even choose to go to Sunday Mass, they have to. However, in most cases, kids choose to come to sports practices or games.
When we look at our coaching ministry in these terms we can begin to realize the great opportunities that we have to make a positive impact on a young person's life in our classroom. We can teach them about the sport that we are coaching, which is certainly important, but we also need to take the opportunities to teach them about being good Christian people and practicing teamwork, sportsmanship and respect for the game, teammates, opponents, game officials and others.
This past summer we were all shown a great example of how we can turn a negative into a positive learning moment in our sports classroom. By now we have all seen or heard about the near perfect game that Detroit Tiger Armando Galarraga pitched in June only to lose that opportunity because of a missed call by the umpire. This was the bad part of the story, but it took a very positive turn in the following 24 hours.
The next day the umpire and Toledo native, Jim Joyce, admitted that he missed the call and told the world how badly he felt for taking the perfect game away from this young pitcher. Tiger manager Jim Leyland and Armando Galarraga both made statements the next day saying how good of an umpire Jim Joyce is and that they had no hard feelings toward him. When Jim Joyce walked onto the field the next day Tiger fans stood and applauded him as Galarraga brought the Tiger line-up to home plate. All of this caused Jim Joyce to tear up with emotion.
What these three men taught us all was that no one tries to make a bad call or a bad play in a game and we really can't control some of these things. What we can control is how we react to these tough situations. In this case, all three of these men showed us a bright spot in the world of professional athletics. It was one of the best displays of sportsmanship I had seen in quite a while.
As ministers to youth we too are presented many opportunities to teach the people around us, but on a much smaller stage. We are all challenged on how we react to adverse situations.
We coaches need to continue to minister to our youth through our words and actions. It's a great opportunity and ministry with which the Lord has blessed us.

Sample Report
Eli Klein Fine Art is pleased to present Wang Yang's first solo exhibition in New York. Into His Dreams, a new series of acrylic on canvas paintings in a variation of scales, will be on view in our Gallery B.
In Wang Yang's whimsical world, humans have abandoned their most frivolous creations and left them to their pets. Dogs, cats, birds, and one pig revel in the joys of a domesticated utopia complete with water sprinklers, ferris wheels, manicured lawns, and abandoned mansions. Overpopulated, highly detailed scenes such as Paradise bring to mind the Dutch master Brueghel whose genre scenes also featured animals frolicking. Departing from depictions of animals as religious and mythical allegories or to represent the human subjects' characteristics, Wang Yang portrays animals simply with poise and discernible training, revealing little about the disposition of each beast. However, born into a world of our human perspective, her subjects continue to engage in animal behavior, napping, sniffing and copulating.
With a disciplined hand and years of study, Wang Yang brings the paintings' muted palette, unambiguous settings, precisely rendered body parts, and understated mastery of perspective together in a story of animals uninhibited and independent from humanity. The combinations of stark buildings, sparse trees, and illuminated lights against gray skies and pink sunsets in her compositions create a landscape both dim and charming as humans have exited this place where animals have learned to live serenely and harmlessly.
Wang Yang was born in Shanghai, China and graduated from the Graphic Design Department of Tsinghua University, Beijing, China. She currently lives and works in Beijing.
The exhibition will be on view at Eli Klein Fine Art from March 3rd through March 31st, 2011 and is accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue. The artist will be present for the opening reception on Thursday, March 3rd from 6 - 9 PM.
For further information, please contact the gallery at (212) 255-4388 or email@example.com.

Nato denies helping Libyan rebels to advance
Nato has denied a Libyan government claim that the alliance is intentionally using its airstrikes to assist rebel advances.
Wing Cmdr Mike Bracken, an alliance spokesman in Naples, says Nato is "not involved in the ground battles", although he acknowledged that the alliance was tracking the fighting between rebels and forces loyal to Muammar Gaddafi. He says Nato's mandate remains to protect civilians.
Libya's Deputy Foreign Minister Khaled Kaim had accused Nato of intensifying its bombing campaign and backing foreign mercenaries to lay the groundwork for a rebel advance. Wing Cmdr Bracken says Nato has no evidence that mercenaries are helping the rebels.
