i feel so bad or cardinal fans lol. As a raider fan i came in optimistic but after about 3-4 games I knew it was truly going to be a long rebuilding year. The cardinals ****ed over their fans and many in the nfl thinking they're a legit grind it out team that can make the playoffs. 4-0 now 4-9 lol. Thats some ********.
Yall let me slip?!?!
Barry Lamar Bonds. .393/.967/1.054....on 3-0 counts.

No QB will be taken in the top 10 this year. Barkley is another Sanchez/Leinhart USC pretty boy with no NFL talent. Get Wilson in the third or fourth and use first couple picks on linemen.
According to what? The internet...........
Ponder was a late second. Gabbert wasn't even on the radar over the 3rd round at this point.
This is the biggest myth out there right now that all these QB's are late 1st talents.
QB's will still go early like they always do. Reaches or not.
The problem for Arizona is I don't see them drafting a QB in round 1. Kevin Kolb plays, Arizona is 4-0; Kolb gets hurt, they are 0-9. Coincidence?

Earlier this off season, the San Francisco Giants doled out a two year contract extension to Javy Lopez for $8.5 million while also picking up the $5 million option on Jeremy Affeldt's knee buckling curve ball. Combined with the $8.5 million that the team already committed to closer Brian Wilson for 2012 and the $6 million they are projected to pay the arbitration eligibles Ramon Ramirez, Santiago Cassilla and Sergio Romo, the team has suddenly accumulated one of the more expensive bullpens in the league.
That's not to say that Giants relievers haven't earned their increased price tag. The six pitchers mentioned above along with Guillermo Mota (and a few other spare parts) had the highest ground ball rate and lowest home run rate among all bullpens in baseball while putting up the second lowest ERA and FIP in the league.
Yet, despite the team's early off season commitment to keeping the bullpen locked up, high cost be damned, the San Francisco Giants appear to be having second thoughts. It's worth mentioning that these second thoughts came about almost immediately following a contract extension security blanket being handed to General Manager Brian Sabean.
For a club looking to rebuild its bullpen through means other than the free agent market, second thoughts can be very good. While the contracts that come with Affeldt, Lopez and Wilson aren't all that appealing and the availability of Romo's low cost dominance should be nil, there are two relievers at the rumoured Giants bullpen sale worth asking questions about. Ramon Ramirez and Santiago Casilla are both projected to earn something in the neighbourhood of $2 million through arbitration this coming season and both were brilliant for San Francisco this past year, arguably just as good or better than closer Wilson.
While this is the second season in a row that Casilla has shown this type of ability, it was something new for Ramirez, who according to Ken Rosenthal is the more likely of the two to be shopped by the Giants.
Ramirez came to San Francisco at the trade deadline in 2010, and while he was effective down the stretch, disappointing results came during the playoffs because of an over reliance on his fastball. That changed in 2011, when he began relying on his hard 87 miles per hour slider for more than situations with two strikes. By using his video game ridiculous slider earlier in the count, Ramirez was able to get ahead and force bad at bats from his opposition.
This one change forced batters to chase and gave Ramirez the freedom to work the edges of the strike zone. We see evidence of this in the increased percentage of opposition swings at pitches outside the zone and an overall decrease in pitches in the zone. As a result, overall swing rates went way up while overall contact rates went down.
With this approach, Ramirez went from a common right handed reliever to the type of bullpen stalwart that any team would want to call their own.
The Toronto Blue Jays have been rumoured to be associated with several available relievers, and while Ramirez shouldn't be an exception, it's worth noting that the Boston Red Sox pitching coach overseeing Ramirez when he was foolishly saving his best pitch for select situations was none other than current Blue Jays manager John Farrell. It will be interesting to see if that history plays a role in not only the pursuit of the pitcher, but also his potential use.
I wonder if the Giants would be interested in including Dave Righetti in a proposed deal as well.

Sitting down at the dinner table to eat is usually about being with family and enjoying a meal. Why can't it be a party of sorts every time!? The DIY LED table from Evil Mad Scientists is a great way to pump some life into dinner time.
Evil Mad Scientist is offering full instructions on this delightful DIY straight from their website. It's fun, exciting and not too confusing either (it probably is, unless you're an engineer).
I personally believe that every dinner needs to be a joyous occasion celebrated by an array of colourful lights. Who better to make that happen than YOU!

Issues running .php files in subfolders on WebProject? [PHP & IIS7]
I'm running IIS7 as a webserver for my PHP project, initially the project had a single index.php file (in the root of the web space) and everything was working fine.
Now I've important all these new PHP files (into the root) and created subfolder (/includes/) which contain a bunch of .PHP scripts which I "include" from my main index.php, oddly enough these don't seem to run...
I've asked around and a bunch of people mentioned setting "Execute Permissions is set to Scripts Only" in the Home Directory Tab... I beleive this is for an older version of IIS because with IIS7 I can't find anything like that ...
So, two quick questions
a) any clues what it could be? aside from permissions (which I find odd, I would have assumed any subdirectories to the webspace would be ok)
b) how do I add "scripts only" execute permissions?
Is there a way to debug/test this?
(note - I am running Microsoft Windows Vista 64b)
Any help/hints or ideas would be much appreciated...

Unfortunately I'm not very familiar with IIS so I personally won't be able to help you out there, hopefully someone else has the answer. If you're interested in just developing locally and you need a server I highly suggest WAMP Server. This will install Apache, PHP, and MySQL on your computer and is a great testing environment.
Unless otherwise stated, any code posted is most likely untested and may contain syntax errors.

Elsa's Ice Palace LEGO Set Needs Your Votes
Frozen has turned out to be one of the most popular movies Disney has put out in a long time. The films racked up big bucks, and the toys that go along with it have sold well. Over on the LEGO Cuusoo site someone has posted a blocky version of Elsa's ice palace complete with minifigs and guardian snowman.
Designed by Fohzen L, the entire castle is modeled in blue parts that are translucent and it looks great. With the popularity of this film, I would think it could easily rack up the votes needed to become a reality pretty easily. Whether or not LEGO can get the licensing done to make it real is another story.
It would be great to see more LEGO sets aimed at girls. My daughter plays with "boy" themed LEGO sets all the time and thinks the LEGO Friends sets aimed at girls are "lame" so it would be great to see some other gear that is a bit more girly yet still cool from LEGO.
[via Topless Robot via Nerd Approved]
Comments (5):
I don't see this getting approved as a Cuusoo set. Not because it isn't an excellent idea, but because I feel LEGO is already working on this. They just started their Friends-scale Disney Princess theme this year, and if it to continues next year I would not be surprised to see Frozen-themed sets in the line. Their current line has sets based on Cinderella, The Little Mermaid, Brave, and Tangled (http://brickset.com/sets/theme-Disney-Princess). Though, I would not expect any sets that come out officially to be as elaborate as the ice palace here.
Wow I'd buy it for myself I loved thr film Frozen and I want to spend a night in the Ice Hotel it be thr nearest thing to spending a night at the castle this is awesome and it go down well with all Frozen and Lego fans I think it should be released
I love lego frozen elsa's ice palace
We are ready to buy it right now. It's awesome!!!!
Fantastic! But I do miss the two boys, and the horse and the reindeer! Very important parts!

Shadow of Rome
- Platformen: PS2

- Genre: Action, Adventure
- User Score: 0 votes
- Voeg toe aan MyGames
The year is 48 B.C. The grandeur of the Roman Empire has been tarnished by political corruption and society has been overrun by unruliness and violence. Julius Caesar advocates for drastic reform to rebuild the republic to its former glory, but is metwith opposition. Before changes could be implemented, the enlightened head of state is murdered. Consequently the horrific news finds its way on the battlefield and to the ears of one soldier, Agrippa, who rushes back to Rome only to be confronted withthe announcement that his father, Uesnius who was a close advisor to Caesar, is the accused murderer. Unfortunately, time is running out for Agrippa as his father is to be publicly executed by the winner of the next gladiatorial event. Together with the help of his best friend, Octavius, and a freed female gladiator named Claudia, Agrippa embarks on a mission to restore his family's honor and uncover the truth concerning Caesar's assassination.
Shadow of Rome has been designed to allow players the opportunity to venture throughout the world of ancient Rome by flawlessly switching between Agrippa and Octavius, each of whom have their own area of expertise. Playing Agrippa lends itself more to action while Octavius is towards the more stealth and adventure elements of the game. To remain true to the Roman era, players will have to use objects in the environment and weapons of the day such as stones, slingshots, spears and swords in order to progress through the game. Also, situations will arise whenAgrippa or Octavius will rely on nothing but their hands in order to combat those impeding his quest to absolve Uesnius.
The venerable city will be reconstructed in full 3D with startling realism, compelling players to explore ancient Rome. Diverse environments including a bustling market place, vast forests, sea vessels, citadels and the Coliseum will be the stage for the various battles and interrogations, all the while searching for the truth. In addition, a colorful cast of characters that appear throughout the game, including actual historical figures, deepens the level of realism and make this saga more immersive

Jun 19th 2011 7:24AM @Tarragon
Is this some sort of trolling? I've cleared the entire content, including Sinestra and Al'akir, since March. I think 10m is a silly format that can barely provide me entertainment. Am I in for easy epics, am I not good enough for 10s? Our altraid (10 man, by the way, without special comp or handpicking players, just whoever is available) cleared 8/13 in 3 hours or so without breaking much sweat, and that is with some players being in 353~ gear.
The amount of good 10m guilds is abyssal. Most of you have no idea what you are talking about because your knowledge is limited to what happens after X waves of nerfs and reaching certain bosses after Y months of farming gear from previous ones. You have guilds in #10 world, in the 10m format, that raid 2-3 days/week, that should give you a good indicator of how much "dedication" goes around there.
Matter of fact is, the core of players who are actually above the wave in this game still raid 25. Plenty of people rushed to the 10m format thinking it's gonna be a chicken with golden eggs and when they discovered that the times of wrath triviality are long gone and the format's difficulty has been increased, they started crying.
Except the part regarding the future of 25m guilds (which is, by the way, grim, seeing how there are almost no new 25m guilds forming and the old ones are dying left and right - fact triggered by 10s also further reducing the already small recruitment pool available), Tyler is pretty much spot on in his post.

Blood Pact: The Soulburning warlock {WoW}
Sep 10th 2010 5:36PM Not sure how you made the leap from ditching the new shard system meaning keeping the current shard system.
The current shard system blows, and I'm confident no one wants it back regardless. IMO the new system seems redundant with other new toys and just feels like a mechanic in search of a reason to exist.
Blood Pact: The Soulburning warlock {WoW}
Sep 10th 2010 2:53PM I think the new system is exceptionally MEH and should be shelved pending some more thought.
Any interesting soul burn effects can be accomplished with glyphs, are already semi-covered with talents (like summons), or are just kind of hokey (afflic locks throwing instant Soul Burns). And the regen mechanic is pretty... wait for it... clunky!
We have tons of other new toys to be excited about, ditch this one plz.
Patch 3.3: Fishing pool guarantees and what it means for the market {WoW}
Dec 2nd 2009 9:21AM The only things that make fishing "fun" are the rare catches and, like many things in this game, the gear aspect. These two things are what made Fishing transcend gathering professions, creating a Fishing subculture at sites like 'http://www.elsanglin.com'.
Seems to me taking away needing cool toys to fish in difficult areas without lures reduces the "fun" aspect pretty drastically, and certainly makes the new fishing contest rewards look pretty pointless. Why would I wanna bother now?
Disappointment with the patch 3.1 game world {WoW}
May 7th 2009 4:31PM Yea, I'd agree that this has been a problem with Wrath in general. Overall there has been a lot of great content, but the little things tying the content together and making you feel immersed are pretty huge for overall excitement, and have been fairly lacking in Wrath.
In BC, all the major raid zones were tied tightly into the quest story line, and it seemed obvious why you should care about downing the big bosses. Anyone have any idea why we headed into the Obsidian Sanctum to slaughter Sarth? I've done every quest in the game and couldn't tell you. Heck, I'd never have known it existed if not for websites like this one.
Same for Naxx... it was taken as given that everyone was familiar with Naxx, but does the story or anything in the actual game give you any indication why we should be heading into Naxx to kill KT? Beats me. Just seemed like mindless raiding.
Malygos is the only one of the pre-3.1 raids that seemed nicely tied in to the storyline. Plenty of quests and lore leading you right to his door.
Ulduar does have a but more tie in, but you really have to look for it. I agree that it'd be nice if it were a little more in our faces.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not some uber lore-nerd, but this stuff is a lot more important to most players than maybe even they realize. It's the soul of the game.


text: Here is a really interesting article, which shows the differences between Search Engine Optimisation and mobile SEO. An example of this is the fact that locations (i.e. Google Places) plays a really important part in search results, e.g.: if a user searches for the keyword 'shop', the location of this user will have a significant impact on the search result (the first result might be the closest one).

To an Irish audience, JB Keane's The Field hardly needs an introduction.
It is, in some ways, as essential to the Irish theatrical canon as
Shakespeare's plays are to that of the English. It might be even argued that it
remains the most quintessential of Irish plays. Since its first production at
the Olympia in 1965 it has tapped into our enduring fascination with land, land
ownership, and questions of entitlement. Indeed, given the circumstances that
led to Ireland's present economic woes, what was true then seems uncannily true
now: Land not only defines what we are but who we are, and the means by which we acquire it do not
always stand up well under scrutiny.
Keane's fearsome Bull McCabe embodies that moral ambiguity and, as a law
unto himself, challenges the civic authority of Church and State. He claims to
speak for the people, yet, in one of his ironies of character, does not flinch
from coercing them into accepting his own corrupted notions of right and wrong
with threats of violence. Courage does
not prevail and, as a consequence, very few reputations emerge intact. Everyone
in this hard, brutal world of underhand dealing is tainted by the ensuing
conspiracy of silence, including the innocent young Leamy. Not even the victim of the plays, murderous
assault is presented as entirely sympathetic. After all, what is William Dee
but a property developer with his plans to cover "grass and clover with
concrete"? Today such a figure has become a byword for corruption. Yet the
suggestion that he might deserve what he gets is surely a provocative one.
Keane even allows The Bull a certain grandiloquence as a defence of his
actions; though beneath it all we hear the same crude message: To the man of no
means, the ends are justifiable; the law of the land is for those who can
afford it. Since the bursting of our own property bubble in 2008, such
sentiments once again seem palpable.
Despite its time and place, The Field remains a kind of mirror,
compelling us to re-examine the questions Keane wrestles with; questions of
culpability, complicity, and moral hazard. The answers are not always
comfortable ones. They do, however, illustrate the thought-provoking power of
this great play and its continuing relevance. I hope you enjoy our presentation
of it.

She won Steve's heart and, finally, a long-overdue Emmy as no-nonsense lawyer Miranda on Sex and the City. Now Cynthia Nixon's revisiting another role from her HBO past: Alex Tanner, the worry-prone daughter of a presidential candidate in Robert Altman's mockumentary Tanner '88. In the follow-up mini, Tanner on Tanner (the Sundance Channel, starting Oct. 5), Alex has graduated to full-blown neurotic and become a financially strapped documentary filmmaker shooting a movie about her father's failed campaign. That's right, it's a mockumentary about a documentary...
So you won the Emmy what does it feel like?
It's heavy. It's a little sharp. But it doesn't have the thing that says my name. I wonder if I have to send it back or something? I really want it to say my name.
Is there really no chance of a Sex and the City reunion movie?
I don't think there's any chance of any kind of reunion. It's all over. I don't want to say too much about what was going to happen [in the movie], but I do know Charlotte was going to go to China to get her baby, and Steve and Miranda were going to have a lot of marital trouble.
Why revisit Tanner now?
We reran the old Tanner earlier this year, and all of us were shocked at how well it held up. Plus, it was the year of the documentary film, and it was a nice way to spoof the documentary.
Tanner's a Democrat. Do liberals use entertainment too much to propagate their point of view?
We've also got The Passion of the Christ, don't forget. I think there's a place for all of these films.... Michael Moore's films are impressive, but I think Bob [Altman] wanted to criticize Moore [with Tanner] just a little bit because he is so propagandist. That's one of Bob's strengths as a filmmaker he shows the strengths and weaknesses of everybody.
Alex and Miranda are both driven Manhattanites. Any chance they'd be friends?
Alex would completely annoy Miranda. Completely. She'd be like, ''Why do you not have your stuff together, and why do you take up all the oxygen in the room?'' Miranda could afford to fund her, but she wouldn't. She'd be like, ''You're not going to make your stupid little films with my money.''

Oh hell, like a weekend poker player determined to drive his buddies to distraction.
"Spit it out, ya' bastard," Conlon demanded.
Marconi nodded, smiling his greasiest publicist's smile. I could feel my cholesterol count rise as he picked up the cards. "Okay, here it is: movie titles are wild."
"For this I'm skipping an AA meeting?" Bill Morris said. He took a long slug from his rum and coke. He was kidding. I hope.
"What the hell is that supposed to mean, movie titles are wild?" Elliot asked. "What kind of fershlugginer game is this?"
Elliot was always using Mad Magazine words like "fershlugginer" and "potrezebie." He thought it made him a character. His screenplays suffer from a painfully similar dearth of imagination. I saw Hall wince when he said it. When Hall opened his mouth Marconi raised an eyebrow - Luke is in awe of Hall Emerson; there has to be someone, I suppose - but Hall didn't say a word, just mashed another cheap cigar between his lips.
"How long you been saving this baby up?" I asked.
Marconi winked at me.
"So how does it work?" Elliot pleaded.
"Oh, for Christ's sake, use your brain," Conlon said. "Which movies have playing cards as part of their title?"
Elliot looked stumped. Frankly, you'd expect more from someone who got paid two million dollars for his last script. Okay, maybe not someone who got paid two million dollars by Joel Silver.
"One-Eyed Jacks?" Conlon prompted. Elliot still looked blank.
"Marlon Brando," I added. And no one pays me two million dollars.
"Oh, yeah," Elliot said, nodding.
"King of Hearts," Marconi suggested.
"Whatever happened to Alan Bates?"
"Isn't he dead? Or is it just his career?"
"Same difference."
"Jack of Diamonds," Hall muttered. "Though you'll observe the knave has two eyes."
"Boy, I don't remember that one," I admitted.
"George Hamilton. Zsa Zsa Gabor."
"Ahhh," we all said at once.
"My dad ghosted on the script. Not his proudest moment. He always claimed Zsa Zsa blew him under a commissary table while he ate a chopped liver sandwich. And that was the only payment he ever got."
"Was she any good?" I asked.
"I asked him once. All he'd say was: 'She ain't chopped liver.'"
"Any others?" Elliot asked. He still looked worried.
"Ace in the Hole," Conlon suggested.
"Nope. Got to be the exact card name," Marconi said, starting the deal. "Anyway, the real title's The Big Carnival."
"There must be a Queen of Hearts," I said, trying to remember.
"Of course: but surely that's our Kathy Lee."
"Not anymore. Regis is better off without her."
"There was a Thief of Hearts."
"That's no help."
"Definitely a Three of Hearts," Conlon said, drawing a roomful of blank stares. "Billy Baldwin."
"Remind me: is he the untalented one, or the unbelievably untalented one."
"Daniel's the merely untalented one. Billy's the one who couldn't act dead with his head blown off, a tag tied to his toe, and Jack Kervorkian as the attending physician."
"Don't you guys ever get tired of Baldwin Brother jokes?" Elliot asked.
"Not me," Conlon said.
"Me either," I agreed. "They're eternal: like mother-in-law jokes or travelling salesmen jokes."
"Or any Baldwin Brother movie," Conlon added. "In the far, far future, when only giant roaches and Dick Clark are left to scamper across the radioactive remains of the Earth, there will still be Baldwin Brother jokes."
Marconi and Emerson nodded. Elliot sighed.
"So about this wild card nonsense. Do projects in development count?" Morris asked. Trust an agent to suggest such a thing.
"Yeah," Marconi conceded. Then he held up a finger and flashed his oleaginous grin at Morris. "But not if they're in turnaround." Everyone knew Morris had spent six months trying to get Brad Pitt to commit to a script called Ace of Spades. But after Meet Joe Black Pitt was avoiding death movies like the plague.
"Bastard," Morris grumbled. Serves him right for having that name and working for CAA.
"I don't like this at all," Elliot said, studying his hand. "I'm much better with TV shows."
Maybe yes, maybe no, but he turned out to be the big loser. Which in our friendly little poker circle only left him a c-note down on the night. Chump change to a two million dollar man. Not that it stopped him from grumbling about it as he poked through his alligator skin wallet. I think Elliot Feinstein is the kind of guy who'd pay up in penny rolls if he could. I'd been down on the night, but made up for most of it with five sevens in that last hand. God bless Marlon Brando, though not for his acting. Or his kids.
"Same time next week, gents?" Conlon asked.
"Not me," Marconi said. "I got to go down to Phoenix for some sci-fi thing."
"What are you pushing?"
"I'm stuck with this Schumacher nightmare. I've got to convince two thousand fat, smelly Star Trek geeks that the guy who ruined Batman is now god's gift to science fiction movies. Cyberpunk, yet. Who makes this stuff up?" He glanced accusingly at Elliot.
"How bad is it?" I asked.
"I just told you it's a Joel Schumacher film, didn't I?"
"Right. Sorry," I muttered.
"Marconi cheats anyway. Stupid wild card games. What about the rest of you?" Conlon asked.
"I'm in," Morris said. "The wife looks forward to these games more than I do. If it weren't for our nanny-cam, I might suspect she's having an affair."
"Maybe she's shtupping the nanny."
"That wouldn't be so bad. I like a little girl on girl action."
Hall flicked his ash in an affirmative way and grunted. Elliot whined some more about losing, but said he'd be there. For all his money, I know he hasn't got many other friends. I half-suspect he's the kind of guy who'd attend sci-fi conventions if he didn't write the damn movies.
"How 'bout you, Marty?"
I pulled on my sports coat, straightened the cuffs, neatened my collar. I ran a hand through my Rogaine-assisted hair and struck a Hollywood pose. "Do you really think that a man who stars in a network action drama - not to mention the newly anointed spokesperson for Shmears 'R US, the nation's fastest growing chain of bagel-and-muffin cafes - has nothing better to do with his weekends than fritter them away playing penny-ante card games with the likes of you?"
"Seven thirty?" Conlon asked.
"Sounds good," I said, and made for the door
"And Marty?"
I turned around.
"Only Rupert Murdoch and people who take his money think that Fox is a real network."
"Didn't you just do some doctoring for Warner? That teen horror soap thing?"
"You'll have to be more specific than that," Morris interjected. "You just described Warner's entire schedule."
Conlon turned a sophisticated shade of red that clashed with his walls.
"Pot. Kettle. African-American," I said. "Seven thirty next week."
As I walked toward my car, I heard a low rumbling noise and glanced up at the skies. I expected to see a thunder cloud, but you could nearly see stars through the glow of a relatively thin L.A. haze. I could almost imagine how the place looked before Carl Laemmle stole it from the Mexicans.
"Marty," the rumbling articulated and I turned around. Hall Emerson limped up the sidewalk toward me, one massive hand raised in the air. Emerson was a huge man and he walked like John Wayne the morning after prostate surgery. Marconi once told me that Emerson suffered the injury in a motorcycle accident some years before. He often gambolled about with an elaborate walking stick - it had a silver wolf's head for a handle - though the item always struck me as more of a prop or affectation than a medical necessity. Everyone acts in L.A., whether they have a SAG card or not. Indeed, the best performances in town are rarely captured by the cameras; they take place everywhere you look, an entire city as theatre-in-the-round. (And yes, I realize that Shakespeare said it first. Fortunately, he's out of copyright.) Emerson didn't have the cane with him tonight, but the stub of his filthy stogie remained wedged between the fingers of his raised hand in good, Churchillian fashion. I detected the brief flash of an acknowledging smile through his salt-and-pepper beard and moustache when he saw me stop and wait for him to catch up.
Though we'd been playing cards together for a year, I couldn't say that I knew Hall Emerson all that well. I got invited into the weekly poker game by way of Jon Conlon, who I met when he came to do some repair work on my TV series, Burning Bright. Conlon is one of those guys who no one who's not in The Business has ever heard of, but who makes a nice chunk of living by fixing the writing that the big names can't be bothered to do right. Nice enough for a million dollar house in Hancock Park, anyway. Seven figures makes a fellow happy with his anonymity.
Hall, on the other hand, is a more familiar name, if only by association. Not so much for the dozen or so scripts he's had produced, none of which, it must be admitted, is especially memorable. Or even the multitude of TV writing he's committed. Rather, Emerson is Old Hollywood: celluloid runs in his veins. His father, Frank Emerson, was a moderately successful screenwriter in the forties and fifties. Emerson Pere, it must be admitted, was no great shakes of a scribe either, but he hung out with lots of interesting people and ended up with a bigger rep than his work alone might have accorded him. Hall inherited some of his dad's prestige, along with his big schnoz, and even enjoyed a brief period of flavor-of-the-month back in the seventies. He picked up a reputation as a bad boy at the time, though I don't know that he did anything more than get his picture taken with Dennis Hopper or have lunch with Bob Altman. I do know that he'd fallen on tough times of late. But in an age when Dennis Hopper appears in car commercials and Robert Altman directs John Grisham movies, being the fifty year old son of a once-famous screenwriter doesn't count for a whole lot.
And in the land of the golden la-la, fifty is at least twenty five years too old. Especially if you're an actress or a screenwriter.
Hall was breathing hard by the time he caught up to me. But then, he's a big man - in both size and demeanor - and always seems to be breathing hard. It didn't stop him from shoving the cigar between his lips as soon as he stopped and resting a meaty hand on my shoulder. Hall's got some of that Orson Welles' presence, crossed with Hemingway looks by way of Sterling Hayden. There's clearly enough of him for two medium-sized men, and sufficient facial hair to equip an entire writing staff with fashionable Van Dykes. Yet he's not exactly fat. Just big. And imposing.
Casting a shadow somehow smaller than himself, Hall is Hollywood to the bone.
"I wanted to catch a private word with you," he said. He gave my neck a little squeeze with the word "you" and I heard my collar bone creak.
"Sure, Hall, what's up?"
"Got a few minutes? I know a place just around the corner. They never close."
I casually glanced at my watch: 1:30 A.M. We'd been playing poker and drinking beer since nine. I already shouldn't drive, though even at this hour it would take me half-an-hour to cruise back to my place in Hermosa Beach. Not to mention that I had a breakfast meeting to dot the i's on the deal with the bagel-and-muffin mogul and his people in Beverly Hills in less than eight hours.
"Sure," I said.
And such is how long stories begin.
"Just around the corner" proved to be a good mile walk. I should have been L.A.-snooty that we didn't take a car, but the night air tasted unusually fresh, sullied only by the rancid poots from Hall's cigar. Other than a few half-hearted exchanges about the game neither of us said much as we strolled up the quiet streets - needless to say we were the only pedestrians about, though the same would likely have been as true at two in the afternoon. We agreed that Elliot was an idiot, entirely undeserving of the vast sums of money thrown at him by even dumber producers, but there was no real venom behind our bitching. Elliot did, after all, have the good grace to leave his money behind at most of the games, however gracelessly he actually lost.
"Fact that the bastard can't bluff's paid my electric bill twice already this year," Hall guffawed.
It occurred to me that someone who can't pay his utilities might be better off not playing poker, but who am I to judge? Been there, done that, post-dated the bouncing check.
The place Hall led me to was one of those nondescript neighborhood bars that, on a cloudy day or a dark night, could pass for an empty storefront. No neon Bud signs or beer promotions dangling in the smoked glass windows, and only the peeling remnants of a stencilled sign above to give the place a name. Steamers or Streamers - I couldn't even tell. It had the look of a serious drinker's bar.
Hall nodded at a big bartender with a bowling ball head and Chia Pet hair. Plugs, I assume; an aspiring actor, no doubt. Every ex-con with a twice-busted nose fancies himself Eddie Bunker these days. The guy practically smiled back at Hall, not so much out of friendliness, I think - Steamers/Streamers was the kind of place where nobody knows your name and you're never glad you came - but because even in the most unlikely of places, people always seem happy to meet Hall. As if he has some secret gland which exudes a "good to see ya" pheremone.
Perhaps he should have been an actor, and not a writer. I know I could do with a little of that eau d'presence.
We ordered a couple of bourbons with Buds back. Frankly, I would have felt gauche ordering anything else in such a place, like those pathetic bastards who order veal cutlet off the tiny "American" menu in Chinese restaurants. When in Beijing and all that.
The only other patrons I could discern through the gloom were a shopworn, middle-aged couple in a booth who looked like they'd wandered in from Days of Wine and Roses, and a semi-toothless old geezer at the far end of the bar who might have been a waxwork prop that came with the place for atmosphere. Except he moved once every minute or so to spill a little bit more amber liquid into his mouth. And shake his head from side to side regretting, it seemed, just about everything it was possible to regret. You might think a man with his own television series would feel disgusted by the sight of such a creature, but once, not that long ago, I readily envisioned myself coming to a not very different end. Who's to say I still won't? I didn't have to ask Hall how it was he knew about a bar like this, because in that same once upon a time I would have known, too. Maybe not Steamers, but another place, interchangeable in look and purpose, twelve blocks the other way. And two dozen more like it, strategically located in any part of town I might happen to be. That's simply the nature of being a sad and lonely fuck in a happy place like The City of Our Lady of the Angels.
And everywhere else, I suppose.
"Been a while?" Hall asked. Before I could question his question, he raised one bushy eyebrow (actually he only had one, straight across) and managed to take in the entire bar with a half-flick of his eye.
"Not so long," I told him. "Not long enough."
"Pretend we're slumming."
He let out a raucous belly-laugh that rolled around the room a few times before bouncing back like a boomerang. It was enough to rock Jack Lemmon and Lee Remmick out of their stupor in the corner. They stumbled from the booth, arms around each other's waist, and slipped out the door. Gappy, at the end of the bar, didn't blink.
Hall drained his bourbon and called for another. I was happy to sip mine - though sipping liquor it most certainly was not - and shook the bartender off. He brought two more anyway, took the money out of the cash Hall left on the bar.
"So, what's going on Hall?"
The big man grabbed up another full-to-the brim shot in his fist, raised it toward his lips, then changed his mind at the last moment. He placed it gently on the bar without spilling a drop, picked up his beer and drank that instead.
"The devil on Sunday," Hall said.
"And angels on horseback with gossamer wings."
"Sorry, I thought we were free associating."
Hall drank his bourbon. Chased it with the rest of the beer.
"It's a movie. The Devil on Sunday."
"Don't know it," I told him. "Should I?"
"John Dall, Ann Savage, Tom Neal. Connie Clare."
I shook my head. "Doesn't sound like a David O'Selznick production."
"Hmmmph. Hardly. Could have made it a dozen times, even in 1950, for what it cost to burn down Atlanta on the back lot. Buzz Day directed it."
"I don't recognise that name, either."
"No reason to. Billy 'Buzz' Day. What a hack. Though he started out as a Max Castle protege."
"My old man wrote it. The Devil on Sunday."
"Ahhh," I said. As if I now knew why Hall Emerson was talking about this to me at two in the morning in a seedy bar when I had bagel and muffin money to make in the morning.
"The screenplay, at least. Based on a short story by a hack named Rheems. Crap, really."
"The story?"
"Bad pulp fiction. You can hear the tinkle of ankle bracelets on every musty page. Smell the shoe gum."
"Hell of a thing for a TV shamus to admit, but I don't know what shoe gum smells like. So is the movie any good?"
Hall paused, glanced at me from the corner of his eye, and signalled for more bourbon. He never took that eye off me as the bartender refilled his glass and slipped more cash out of the pile, just offered a weary half-smile.
"Not bad," he said. Then raised his glass and tossed back the shot. "The old man could do a day's work when he was so inclined, and the bottle didn't beckon, especially if it was hardboiled. 'Course, you got to get offered a day's work before you can do one."
Hall started looking toward the bartender again, but I slid my still-full shot glass in front of him, took a sip of beer for sociability's sake as he downed it.
"Things a little slow?"
"Freeze frame more like."
"What's the problem?"
"The problem," Hall said, slapping his hand down on the sticky bar, "is that I'm too fucking old for this town."
"Who isn't?"
"You're making out all right."
"You think that's anything other than dumb luck? If I hadn't stumbled into the Jack Rippen mess, managed to expose the dirty dealings at Celestial Dog, would anyone have taken a second look at me for a job? Two years ago you had to be a trivia master just to know my name. I'd still be skip-tracing and running down subpoenas but for the fickle finger of fate. Hell, I never even wanted to act again, and here I am starring in a network - sorry, Fox - show. You can't figure this town, Hall."
"Yeah, I know. Hell, I'm second generation: it should be genetic. But it still pisses me off."
"You doing anything at all?"
"Doctoring some syndie shit. And I'm 'collaborating' on a few projects. Know what that means?"
I shook my head.
"I do all the writing while some twenty year old takes the meetings, the money and the credit."
"I sympathise, Hall, I genuinely do. But Hollywood's a bitch and that ain't never gonna change. Like you say, I can't complain at the moment, but you know what? I sent in the renewal slip on my PI license just in case. I don't mean for PR reasons, either. So who ever feels secure here?"
He harrumphed what I took to be agreement, looked again toward the bartender, but didn't order another round. Highlights of the day's baseball came up on ESPN and we watched in silence for a while. The Dodgers lost. Quelle surprise.
"I can talk to my producer," I said as the baseball was replaced by MotoCross. Who watches this stuff?
"About some work on Burning Bright. I think the scripts are pretty well set for the season, but there may be something. You know, there's always room for another story consultant."
"No thanks, Marty. Really. I didn't intend to go off on that tangent and I'm not looking to scrounge work off you. Though I do have a favor to ask."
"It's The Devil on Sunday. They're remaking it."
"You're kidding."
"Nope. It's an indy project, but there's real money there. Believe me, I checked that out first."
"You're involved?"
"They asked. Kevin Ryan Paul's producing. You know him?"
"Vaguely. Never trust anyone with three first names. Jan Michael Vincent's owed me money for years. He always ducks when I walk into a room. Wasn't Paul the guy who produced the Rat Patrol movie?"
"That's him. Not big on imagination, I admit, but he gets stuff made."
"Huh," I said. Paul, to the extent I knew his work, was a shit-merchant, but then who am I to judge? One critic, after all, described Burning Bright as the Cannon of the nineties. I don't see it, but I started a diet the day I read the review.
"I've got first shot at the script. Paul's got this idea that he can play some publicity off the fact that my dad wrote the original."
"Sounds thin."
"No, Marty: not eating sounds thin. The Devil on Sunday sounds like a paycheck."
"So go for it," I said.
"I am. But I've got a problem. The video version of the original is incomplete. It's on one of those dire labels and they've taken no care with the print. I have Frank's copy of the original script and it runs a good twenty minutes longer than what's on tape. I've also heard that there's at least one scene they shot that the old man didn't write. I've read descriptions of it, so I know it exists, but it's not on the video or in his script. I'd like to see the whole shot version if I can. And any extra footage that might exist."
"You try any of the local archives? I hear U.C.L.A. is pretty good."
"Yeah, they don't have it. I went to the AFI, too, but they're a bunch of prissy snots."
"What about Paul?"
Hall made a face. "He's not that interested. I think he came by the rights cheap and likes the idea of doing something dark. Apparently dark is the new black."
"I'm sorry, I have no idea what that means," I said.
"I don't either, but Paul says it every time we meet. Maybe I am too old for this business."
The bartender was making closing-up movements and a glance at my watch revealed that it was past two-thirty. I stifled a yawn, but Hall waved for one more bourbon. The bartender hesitated - he wanted us out - but it was the kind of place where he'd rather have the extra two bucks. It didn't take Hall long to drink it in any case.
"So what is it I can do for you, Hall?"
"Fox has a hell of a vault and according to Variety, they once distributed Devil. It was part of a library they bought out before Murdoch came along. I made some calls, but I can't seem to get anywhere with their archive people. And I sort of had an incident with a Fox exec a couple of years back. I think I may be persona non grata over there."
"Hmmm. Was this the famous studio chief's wife at the County Museum incident?"
"You heard about it, huh?"
"Hall. Her silicon implant ruptured. Medical students across the country read about it every day. Hell, they dramatised it on ER."
"They work with the same exec and she's his ex now. And it really wasn't my fault."
I laughed out loud, and even Hall had to smile. The bartender removed our glasses and whatever money was still on the bar.
"So you want me to track down a print of The Devil on Sunday if I can."
"Would you mind?"
A pretty small favor, really. A phone call or two at most. "Not a problem, Hall. I'll check into it on Monday."
"The thing is if you could make sure and ask if there's any footage beyond what's in the print. I'm really interested in that lost scene. They may keep stuff like that someplace separate."
"Hey," I said, standing up and straightening my jacket, "Marty Burns is on the case."
He smiled and thanked me, but he didn't exactly look reassured. They never do, even when the cameras roll. A lesser fellow might nurture self-doubt.
We walked back toward our cars in silence. There's nothing quite like L.A. at night: you can almost believe it's a real place. But then you look up and see the Hollywood sign on Mt. Lee. Hall and I shook hands at Conlon's and Hall thanked me again. I watched him drive off in a beat-up yellow Nissan, buzzed open the locks on my Lexus but paused to take a deep swallow of the nearly-fresh night air.
The Devil on Sunday, I thought.
And angels on horseback with gossamer wings.

Just call me Faith, collector of quilt tops. Seriously though, I have the fronts and backs finished for my last two quilts I've shown you, so I let myself cut into my new Denyse Schmidt fabric Just.This.Once. I had the itch, I've scratched it, and now I will go back to finishing my other two before continuing this one.
Organized Chaos…Echino Style
I finished my Echino quilt top last week, after practically a 6 month break. I'm not sure why it took me so long to pick this one up again, I really love the Echino patterns and colors. And I even have enough fabric left over to make something else fun…perhaps an improv quilt like Elizabeth?
I will be working on the back this week…still throwing around ideas in my head. I'm not sure how to quilt it either, any suggestions? I do need to get to the store to buy batting today. The snowpocalypse is on the way to Chicago and I'm getting excited for a potential 18+ inches of snow!

LAKE PLACID — The proposed tax levy for Lake Placid Central School District is at the 3.01 percent tax-cap maximum.
School Business Manager Leonard Sauers said the total proposed tax levy is $14,201,792.
The total 2013-14 budget is $17,264,976, up 2.65 percent from this school year.
The tax rate for both Wilmington and North Elba residents would go up about 20 cents, to $6.78 per $1,000 assessed property value. The rate will be adjusted for final assessment figures this summer.
"What's built into this is no increase or no decrease in assessment values," Sauers said.
The district gained an increase of $186,000 in state school aid to total $2.5 million.
"That helped us tremendously. We would have had to cut other areas if we hadn't received that increase," Sauers said.
But the payment for the Teachers Retirement System went up $312,000, or 4.4 percent, the business manager said.
The school is in the final year of a three-year union contract that gives teachers 3.25 percent salary increases.
The Civil Service Employees Association increase for staff in the proposed budget is 2.5 percent, Sauers said.
The average pay hike proposed for administrative positions is at 2 percent, though two of them — and maybe a third — will be new hires.
One proposition on the ballot seeks voter approval to ask the state for 10 percent increase in building aid to support an Energy Performance Contract already approved by the School Board.
The extra money would be used to replace a boiler at the Elementary School.
"The 15-year performance contract allows the school to pay for the equipment over time with the energy savings we receive," Sauers said. "In order to get the extra 10 percent aid, the district does need voter approval."
The proposed school budget is fairly straightforward, the business manager said.
The district won't opt for the pension-smoothing program offered by Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
The measure was designed to allow schools and municipalities an option to lock in pension rates for a period of 25 years, which would "smooth" the pension increase against the tax-cap limit.
"No smoothing in this plan," Sauers said. "We've budgeted the full pension increase.
"In the long run, pension-smoothing is going to cost you (taxpayers) more money."
Email Kim Smith Dedam: email@example.com
Two public hearings on the Lake Placid Central School proposed budget are set -- 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Wilmington Community Center and 7 p.m. May 14 in the Lake Placid Middle/High School cafeteria.
The budget vote is 2 to 9 p.m. Tuesday, May 21, in the Lake Placid Elementary School cafeteria and the Wilmington Community Center.

What Backpack is Best for Back to School?
As sad as it makes my son when I say it, the reality is that we can no longer ignore the fact that we need to start thinking about going back to school. With the list of supplies nearly fulfilled, my thoughts turn to backpacks.
At BlogHer 2009, I received a free backpack from Lands End which we gave to our son who was going into the first grade. Two years, grades and summers at camp later, the backpack is going strong, with only a few minor tears in the piping on the front. It's a little stinky and dirty, but I'm hopeful that after a trip through our washing machine, it will make it through another year, despite my son's pleas for a new pack.
Now it's our daughter's turn to go to first grade, and to get her first real backpack.
Given how well my son's pack has stood up, I'll probably purchase another Lands End backpack – I think she will like the Solid ClassMate SmallHaul Backpack in pink ($29.50) despite the fact it does not have Barbie, Tinkerbell or the Power Puff Girls on the side.
But before I pull the trigger on a new backpack I thought I'd ask – what backpack do you think is best for back to school?

Bangalore City is just recovering from a major garbage pile-up in the city due to the virtual collapse of the BBMP's garbage disposal system. The protests of village communities close to the dumping grounds of the enormous quantity of garbage a metropolis generates triggered the crisis.
Managing waste has become a major and contentious issue world over and the 10 th Aug 2012 issue of Science has a special section dealing with waste, with many new ideas thrown in about how others are managing the problem. Municipal solid waste management in India has already become a major problem and just dumping the unsorted urban waste into landfills is no solution and will have serious environmental consequences. The special section on "working with waste ought to be of interest to all of us. (Science, v.337, 10 Aug 2012, pp663-703)

The number of job openings and the pace of hiring both declined during March, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data released on Friday. There were a seasonally adjusted 4.014 million jobs available at the end of March, down 2.7 percent from February. But even with the month-to-month drop, job openings were 3.5 percent above year ago levels with March representing only the third time over the past six years in which the count was over 4 million job openings.

I have been frustrated by avahi apparently not working properly on Fedora. Turned out I just had to disable the firewall… One more thing fedora could polish…
You say 'polish', someone else says 'leave insecure by default'…
Atleast Fedora may provide an option in firewall to seamlessly allow LAN transfers. They may even provide a warning, when enabling it :)
You're having problems with avahi, while I can't get either NFS or UPnP/DLNA to work. Yeah, and the Fedora guide to getting NFS working needs updating, or firewalld made more me-proofed. Not to mention SElinux (though I believe it is at least shipped nonenforcing).
Really, the networking thing bugs me the most since that should be easy.
It's obviously wrong, except that your advice wouldn't be enough, because, hey, the port to the actual _service_ needs to be opened too.
And we did think of it before:
Because if your machine successfully advertises a service, you'd expect it to be usable. Did you even read the threads I pointed to? It's not up to us (the desktop people), but things are slowly moving. Look for "network zones" work in firewalld and NetworkManager.
We know it's f'ing annoying, that's why we send e-mails like the one in the thread. It's "the security guys" that want us to keep the firewall even when we push back and say that with SELinux we're already closing down most of the problems. So we try and solve it properly because that's the only way the neckbeards in Fedora will let us.
If bitching about it in a blog was enough to fix it, it would already have been fixed 2 years ago when I sent that mail. And your bitching only frustates _me_. So it would be nice if you could stop it there.
Sorry, I wrongly assumed you were a reasonable person that would see that efforts had been made. But you choose to ignore those and rant. Fine, do whatever you want. It's a GNOME blog though, you'll want to check the code of conduct :)
I too really wish there was an /etc/iptables.d directory or "something" so that firewalls can be configured "externally" by packages.
With the Security Vs Usability arguments the answer is simple: Disable "stuff" by default, if it's enabled… make it work.
Jesse, I stand by you. It's a free world and you should be free to express your discontent. Is the Gnome community not a free speech loving one?
