Oklahoma earthquake linked to oil extraction wastewater – BBC News - 3/27/2013 (link)Scientists have linked the underground injection of oil-drilling wastewater to a magnitude-5.7 earthquake in 2011 that struck the US state of Oklahoma. Wastewater injection from drilling operations has been linked to seismic events in the past, but these have typically been much smaller quakes. They also have tended to occur in the first weeks or months of injection. The study in Geology suggests that "induced seismicity" can occur years after wastewater injection begins.

Face-Off Over 'Fracking': Water Battle Brews On Hill - NPR - 5/27/2009 (link)Environmentalists and the natural gas industry are getting ready for a battle in Congress over something known as "hydraulic fracturing."
In July, a hydrologist dropped a plastic sampling pipe 300 feet down a water well in rural Sublette County, Wyo., and pulled up a load of brown, oily water with a foul smell. Tests showed it contained benzene, a chemical believed to cause aplastic anemia and leukemia, in a concentration 1,500 times the level safe for people.
Cathy Behr says she won't forget the smell that nearly killed her. An emergency-room nurse in Durango, Colo.'s Mercy Regional Medical Center, Behr was working the April 17 day shift when Clinton Marshall arrived complaining of nausea and headaches. An employee at an energy-services company, Weatherford International, Marshall, according to Behr, said that he was caught in a "fracturing-fluid" spill. [Fracturing chemicals are routinely used on oil and gas wells where they are pumped deep into the ground to crack rock seams and increase production.] The chemical stench coming off Marshall's boots was buckling, says Behr. Mercy officials took no chances. They evacuated and locked down the ER, and its staff was instructed to don protective masks and gowns. But by the time those precautions were enacted, Behr had been nursing Marshall for 10 minutes--unprotected. "I honestly thought the response was a little overkill, but good practice," says Behr, 54, a 20-year veteran at Mercy.

The Price of 3 DB
A 3 DB LEVEL INCREASE is a modest one. Subjectively, one might describe it as being a ?tweak? to the loudness of a system. Most infrared remote controls for home entertainment systems are about 1.5 dB per step, and most people who go to the trouble to pick one up and point it will change the level by at least two steps. Quit reading and go try it now....
A loudspeaker will eventually succumb to that "next 3 dB." It doesn't sound like much, and it came so easy at lower levels. But eventually heat takes its toll and failure occurs. When a loudspeaker is power tested, once its response changes by a few dB due to heat, it's very close to its thermal limits. You can't expect another 3 dB. Level is very deceptive. You many only want "a little more," but at some point a slight increase produces distortion or component failure due to the logarithmic increase in power.
We hear about "the straw that broke the camel's back." But in this case, we're doubling the number of straws each time we add to the camel's load. If he's showing signs of fatigue, it isn't advisable to keep piling it on. It's better to add a second camel.
The moral of the story? Don't load your camel logarithmically! Yet that's exactly what happens each time you turn up a loudspeaker by 3 dB.
Power vs. voltageThe truth is that amplifiers seldom run out of power. They're rated using sine waves — a signal that has a much higher RMS voltage (and therefore generates much more power) than typical audio program material. Instead, they run out of voltage swing. When normal program material lights the clip indicator on an amplifier, it's likely at one-tenth or less of its rated sine wave power output. Further level increases produce more severe clipping, and the amplifier power output continues to rise, escalating toward the sine wave power production reflected by its power rating. An inexperienced system operator will often turn the sound level up so much that the amplifier clips. They want it louder yet, so they continue upward with the volume control. Because the amplifier is out of headroom, each 3 dB increase clips the signal more severely. The power output of this amplifier is going up, even though it's heavily distorted.
It takes an amplifier rated at about 100 watts to produce 10 "clean" watts into a loudspeaker. Likewise, it takes an amplifier rated at about 1,000 watts to produce 100 "clean" watts into a loudspeaker. Peak limiters can allow an amplifier to play louder by reducing the program peaks and allowing the amplifier to generate a higher RMS voltage across the loudspeaker. While the fidelity may suffer, the sound definitely gets louder, and the voice coils definitely get hotter.
A system's ability to go 3 dB louder diminishes with increased level. Eventually the next 3 dB will max out a system component, causing amplifier clipping, thermal failure of the loudspeaker, or both.
The bottom line? At some point, a sound system simply can't go "a little louder." A perfectly reasonable request for a slight loudness increase at low playback levels can be an absurd request at high playback levels. If you ignore the warning indicators, something will fail. A sound system that's operating at "half power" is nearly all the way up.

Apex Energy Solution has partnered with Alside from Day One.
Apex founder Michael Foit was attracted to Alside by its unique story; he stayed with Alside exclusively over the years because only Alside offers the products, craftsmanship and service to match Michael's high standards.
Founded in 1947 by a former World War II pilot who had marveled at the lightweight-but-durable materials used in German aircraft, Alside pioneered aluminum and vinyl siding for homes. Based in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, Alside designs its own groundbreaking products, develops its own polymers and distributes its products through a carefully controlled family of authorized dealers – and never through big-box retailers or home-improvement discounters.
The bottom line is this: From the very beginning, Alside's reputation for innovation leadership and customer-service excellence made it the perfect match for Michael's vision and ambition. And from there the relationship has continued to grow, fueled by a shared purpose and mutual respect.

TIACA, Lufthansa oppose German night-flight ruling
TIACA is the latest organization to react to the move by the Federal Administrative Court in Germany to uphold Frankfurt Airport's night-flight ban. Last fall, the Hesse Administrative High Court imposed a cessation of all flights between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m., which was enforced until the higher court had a chance to rule on the issue.
Carriers and airline organizations had hoped that the administrative court would overturn the previous ruling, but also agreed that outcome was likely a long-shot. Nonetheless, associations like TIACA have come out against the final decision.
"Slots are a major battle ground for airlines at major airports across the globe and in recent years to satisfy the requirements of passengers, all-cargo operations have been pushed into the hours of the day, and usually the night, when passengers don't want to fly," Oliver Evans, TIACA's industry affairs committee chair, said in a statement. "The air cargo industry has adapted to this and made it work. Today, night-time cargo flights are part of a seamless supply chain that means consumers and businesses can plan their stock levels and production schedules with confidence. This is now at risk."
Officials from Lufthansa, which utilizes Frankfurt as its primary airfreight hub, slammed the court's decision as potentially hazardous to cargo operations. "On North Atlantic routes, in particular, the night-time departure is indispensable for our customers," Lufthansa Cargo CEO Karl Ulrich Garnadt said in a statement. He predicts that the ban could cause express shipments to move away from Frankfurt Airport, which currently ranks as the seventh largest cargo airport in the world.
"The migration of urgent express products to other hubs in Europe will continue," Garnadt stated. "Switching to other airports is impossible for Lufthansa Cargo, however, as more than half the cargo on-board passenger aircraft is transported via Frankfurt."
After all, Garnadt said, "Frankfurt is an indispensable part of our business model. This is the only place where freighters and passenger aircraft can be linked quickly and smoothly."
Initially, the Hesse court proposed that Frankfurt Airport be allowed to operate 17 flights at night. This reduction in night flights was the price imposed for allowing Frankfurt workers to build a new runway. Detractors wanted more, however. Citing noise pollution, night-flight opponents demanded a total ban, a complaint the Hesse court passed on to the Federal Administrative Court in Leipzig. Before the high court could issue a ruling, however, Hesse made night flying illegal at Frankfurt.
Christoph Franz, chairman of the executive board and CEO of Deutsche Lufthansa AG, called the Federal Administrative Court's decision to uphold the ruling a "terrible blow to Germany's reputation as a place to do business."
"Frankfurt, Hesse, and yes, even Germany, as an export and logistics nation, would have their wings clipped," Franz said in a statement. "There is no doubt that one of Europe's largest hubs will fall behind in international competition. … A rigid night-flight ban without any operational flexibility is completely unreasonable. It is unique in its kind worldwide and ignores the realities of international competition."

I suppose it shouldn't come as too much of a surprise that AMD decided to bring something a little new to us in time for the holiday season. The new Tahiti LE based HD 7870, though, seems to be extremely limited with only a few companies choosing to pick up the new variant. AMD themselves don't have the new model on its website, though, and it seems that only a few companies have decided to pick up the model.
Alongside Sapphire the other main company we know that has bought the new Tahiti LE based video card to us is PowerColor and it comes in the form of the PowerColor PCS+ HD 7870 2GB Myst Edition. The main problem is that you're not quite sure that the model is based on the new Tahiti LE chip. Hopefully today, though, we'll be able to give you a bit of a clearer picture of what exactly we're dealing with.
While we'll go into a bit more detail on the next page when we look at the specifications side of things the main thing to remember is that this is an "LE" based chip. The Tahiti chip is used on the HD 7900 series while the Pitcairn chip is used on the HD 7800 series. What I like here is that while they're using the Tahiti chip, AMD have decided to bring the "LE" based version of it to the HD 7800 series.
In the end from a specification point of view it looks good for the consumers because by bringing it under the HD 7800 series name we feel like we're getting a supped up HD 7870 where if it was called the HD 7950 LE, the impression of a cut down HD 7900 series based card just doesn't sit as well.
Anyway we don't want to go into too much detail when it comes to the specifications side of things as we'll cover that in the next page. Before we get there, though, we'll quickly see what's going on with the package before taking a closer look at the card itself. Once we've done that we'll check out the specifications, our testbed, the cards we'll be using in our graphs today and finally get into the performance side of things.
I always love the box design from PowerColor; it looks great and you can see on the front we've got the main information we need. Including the fact it's a HD 7870, PCS+ cooler and the Myst Edition card which helps let us know it's based on the Tahiti LE chip. As for the back of the box you can see we've got information on some of the components and a large chunk is dedicated to showing off the cooler and the benefits it brings.
Moving inside the bundle we don't have a whole lot going on with a Quick Installation Guide and Driver CD being included alongside just a single cable which is a Mini DP to DisplayPort connector.

The golden moment has finally arrived when Monia's dream to be crowned a princess will come true in the show "Dekha Ek Khwaab". As stated by the Raj Purohit, one can rule the kingdom only when one is emphatic towards the people and understand their needs and Monia has proven herself to be worthy of the title.

BRUNSWICK, Maine - The Bowdoin College women's hockey program was ranked among the best in the nation in the preseason, and the first two weeks of the season have seen the team live up to that ranking. In national polls released today, the women's hockey team sits at number two in the nation.

The Czechs love their beers. When novelist Jeffrey Eugenides (left) realized he'd be in Prague when the Pulitzer Prize winners were announced, he imagined uncapping a cold one. ''My idea was that if I didn't win I could drown my sorrow in Czech beer,'' he says. ''It turns out I was lucky enough to win, so we had Bohemian champagne instead.''
Eugenides, 43, took the fiction prize for Middlesex, a generations-spanning epic framed around a Greek-American hermaphrodite first called Callie, then Cal. The novel appeared nine years after his first book, The Virgin Suicides, made his name and spawned a movie. ''I took a lot of grief about the nine-year writing period,'' said Eugenides on the phone from Prague, where he was attending a writers' festival, the day after his big win. ''Getting this after all of that is a wonderful testament that I haven't wasted the last 10 years of my life. Believe me, some of the time I did feel that I might be doing that.'' -- Gregory Kirschling

Working Capital Solutions for Businesses Nationwide
Home > Blog
When you apply for a small business loan, you'll be required to provide several items regarding your company and its financial situation. While it may seem difficult to get this various paperwork together, it's good for both parties that this documentation is required: it helps ensure that the final loan you're offered is what's best for you, something that you can afford and that really fits your needs. While the exact documents needed may vary between loan types, everything on this list is virtually guaranteed to be useful during the application process.
Business Plan
In order to be granted small business capital through the SBA, you'll need to show evidence of a solid business plan to show future steps and goals. In many cases, the required information could go well beyond the business plan. Additionally, you'll need to show personal information to identify yourself, and sometimes include a resume that shows your leadership and management experience.
Credit Reports & Tax Returns
Expect the prospective lender to pull your individual credit report and the credit report for your business, if you have already started it. Before you apply, it's smart to pull your own report(s) and check them for inaccuracies. It's not uncommon for the reports to have an error or two, , and even a slight problem could have a big impact when you are applying for credit or a loan. By the same token, most lenders will want to see three years of personal and business tax returns (if you have them).
Financial Statements
You will likely need to show your personal and business financial statements to the lender. This helps them determine your small business capital needs and how much debt you can realistically afford to carry. Expect to present both financial statements of your own and documents from your current bank.
Agreements, Leases, and Licenses
If you've had to fill out any kind of official form or agreement, you'll likely need to present it as part of the loan. This applies to articles of incorporation, any kind of local business licenses or accreditations required in your area, franchise agreements, and lease arrangements. And in some cases, you may be asked to provide information on who your customers are.
This is not an exhaustive list covering every potential situation for every lender. You should always check and ask them what, specifically, they'll want to see so that you can be prepared. But if you're just starting the process and want to have some idea of what they're looking for, this list is a good starting point.

Small business loans
There are many different ways to fund a business. Starting out, you'll have the option to lean heavily on venture capital or similar investment vehicles, but you may also choose to finance through more traditional loans, or potentially even to self-finance. But as your business develops, you may discover that your initial financing method isn't the one that best suits your current needs. In this kind of situation, it'll be time to look at recapitalization financing.
The Funds You Need To Restructure
Recapitalization financing is, at its heart, a way of re-organizing the way the finances of your company are structured. This can mean consolidation, but it often means adapting payment structures to better fit your current method of production. For example, it could mean switching from a more debt-oriented structure to a line-of-credit oriented one.
Changing Your Business Capital
At Crestmark, we often help our clients transfer to lines of credit as their main source of business capital. We offer four main types of line of credit. The first is an asset-based line of credit, which is secured by inventory and/or receivables. Accounts receivable financing is another common choice. This kind of line of credit is secured purely by invoices with every invoice being considered individually. Finally, the last two common options are both types of invoice factoring. Factoring offers flexible financing that functions very similarly to a line of credit but is not technically considered one. Under an invoice factoring agreement Crestmark structures your funding facility based on accounts receivable/invoices. The invoices are purchased at a discount to provide immediate availability of funds to your company
If you're interested in learning how Crestmark can assist you with recapitalization, don't hesitate to contact us. We're always looking to help business owners looking for financial solutions.

Providing space and science-related companies strategic advice and practical assistance with federal decision-makers to develop solutions for today's space exploration and scientific challenges.
Although Cornerstone's experience in space policy is wide and varied, the primary focus in this area has been in advocacy for sufficient funding resources to continue development by both U.S. and foreign partners of the International Space Station; maintenance of the integrity of the Space Shuttle program including, where appropriate, the upgrade of technologies and systems; and the continuation and enhancement of numerous research and construction programs undertaken at both NASA facilities and at academic institutions throughout the country. Additionally, we have worked in support of NASA's COTS program in order to keep the nation's ability to travel to the ISS intact. Cornerstone's personnel include both former House and Senate staff with specific appropriations oversight of NASA's complex budget and programs. In addition to this hands-on experience, excellent working relationships have been fostered with key Congressional advocates, numerous agency personnel, and with many of the corporate participants helping to execute NASA's mission.
Just as with the abovementioned space program, Cornerstone's experience extends deep into science and research programs directed through the National Science Foundation (NSF) as well as through the policy-making activities of the President's Office of Science and Technology Policy. Specific work performed by Cornerstone personnel through the NSF has been in the areas of mathematics; computer and information science; geophysics, including oceanography and atmospheric sciences; physical science; social and behavioral science; and polar programs, including research conducted in the Arctic and Antarctic regions. Additional experience has been garnered through participation in the development and construction of numerous NSF sponsored projects, including new research and living facilities at the South Pole; the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland; a new high altitude, atmospheric research airframe to be operated by the National Corporation for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado; two different earthquake-related research programs, and the new Gemini telescopes located in Chile and on Muana Kea on the Island of Hawaii, among others. The breadth of experience in this field links important relationships with numerous academic institutions to both NSF and OSTP personnel, and to important decision and policy-makers on Capitol Hill.

For many people, a new year means a time for new habits, resolutions, and fresh starts. For myself though, it's always been about one thing and one thing only: 365 days of brand-new films!
And of course, Hollywood being Hollywood, there's the usual litany of sequels, super-hero spectacle, remakes, and state-of-the-art Hollywood summer craziness filled with all manner of digital monsters and explosions. But there's also new films from Scorsese, Christopher Nolan, and - most intriguing of all - a ballet thriller from Darren Aronofsky. Come on, admit it - you know you got excited when you heard the words "ballet thriller!" All that, and we also see the return of Michael Douglas in his seminal role as Gordon Gecko.
Read on after the jump for my list of the ten films that - for reasons both good and bad - I'm most looking forward to seeing in the new year. »

The joy of list-making continues today as I'm running down who I thought gave the best performances of the year plus what I thought were the best quotes and kills of 2009. Please keep in mind that regarding the performances, I haven't seen a few key films that could have very well changed the winners and runners-up: Crazy Heart (Best Actor), The Last Station and Bright Star (Best Actress), and a few others. If you think there was someone who clearly should've won or been nominated, shout out in the comments section and I'll let you know whether I saw the film or not.
With this disclaimer out of the way, I present to you my picks for the best performers, directors, quotes, and kills of 2009. Hit the jump to check them all out.

So the first trailer for Christopher Nolan's Inception recently appeared online, but I'm still hearing some people say that if the trailer wasn't stamped with "from the director of The Dark Knight" they would have little motivation to actually care about the movie.
Now granted, Inception has maintained an air of almost total mystery every since we first learned of its existence, but with the clues that have been carefully sprinkled here and there, we here at Screen Rant think there's enough potential for this to be a breakout film in 2010. We'll explain why, with some hi-res photos helping to paint the picture (click on any still image below for a hi-res version).
So let's take a crack at the most obvious question – What is Inception all about?
In past coverage of the movie, we've learned that Leonardo DiCaprio stars as "a CEO »

Leonardo DiCaprio's latest flick "Inception" has all the elements to be a blockbuster sci-fi, fantasy action-adventure movie: Hot director, Christopher Nolan, hot leading lady, Marion Cotillard, and edgy hot co-star Ellen Page. Now, if only the plot makes sense. The latest trailer has just been released and it shows the film talking place in a mushy, squishy world, otherwise known as the mind. Think a blend of the "Matrix" movies and 1998's "Dark City." »

Matt Fraction and Brian Michael Bendis have been spending some time together, and last night's topic of conversation was "Siege" #1. Judging from the comments, Bendis may or may not have trapped Fraction in his home, and being sealed in Bendis' house may or may not be a good thing.
Elsewhere, Ron Marz had some fighting words for illegal comics downloaders -- and particularly for those who are superhero readers. Check out his take on comics pirating after the jump along with some original Nova artwork from Philip Tan, Bryan Lee O'Malley's clarification on his "Inception" tweet yesterday and Robert Kirkman's beard.

It's got a hot leading man in the form of Leonardo DiCaprio; costars including a grown-up, post-Juno Ellen Page, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Cillian Murphy and Ken Watanabe; supercool visual effects; a heart-pounding score; and, oh yeah, it's director Christopher Nolan's first flick since his Dark Knight became the second-highest grossing film of all time behind James Cameron's Titanic. So what's the big idea? At first glance, it's a story about a guy who's out to steal some newfangled concept that allows people to build cities and other things in the matrix of their mind. It's no Vertigo. But it sounds like something Hitchcock would do if he were alive today. »

A few movie-related cheers and jeers got tossed around the Twitter Report's feed over the last 24 hours. Joe Hill seems to have been catching up on his "Green Hornet" news, and both Michel Gondry and Anvil have his approval. Bryan Lee O'Malley, meanwhile, sounded a little skeptical of Ellen Page's role in the new Christopher Nolan film "Inception."
In sports/comics crossover conversation, Brian Michael Bendis noticed the trending Vikings topic last night that was spurred by the Chicago Bears victory over Minnesota. He hoped that "Viking" writer Ivan Brandon would notice as well. Check out all of those retweets after the jump along with a birthday wish I endorse going out to Jeff Katz and a memorial shout out to Star Trek actress Majel Barrett, which I also support.

Warner Bros. has dropped a second teaser trailer for Christopher Nolan's Inception and, like the first, tells us very little other than to expect the unexpected.
The film's official tagline is "a contemporary sci-fi actioner set within the architecture of the mind" and the trailer confirms that a crime has been committed within someone's mind, most likely Leonardo Dicarpio's CEO-type character. But is he asleep or awake during this trailer? Or both?
There's a great shot of a city literally folding over on itself as Ellen Page and DiCaprio look on. This must be in his mind, or their mind ala The Matrix. Either way, Nolan likely has some great twists up his sleeve.
Inception also stars Ken Watanabe as the "bad guy," Marion Cotillard, Joseph Gordon Levitt and Batman Begins' Cillian Murphy. Look for it in theaters on July 16.

Of all the movies at holiday time Up in the Air seems poised for the most lofty awards as well as commercial success. A luncheon at 21 was planned for the movie prior to the announcement of its Golden Globes nominations. Before, we were talking about an exceptionally sophisticated indie film with a big star, George Clooney, in the lead. Now we are looking at a wunder-film that hits the Zeitgeist just so, landing on every top ten list, with major Oscar potential, and yet, the celebration at 21 could not have been more grounded. As it happened, two years ago, when director Jason Reitman had a little film called Juno, a luncheon at 21 featured their famous hamburger. Juno played winningly by Ellen Page had a hamburger phone and plastic versions were doled out for a winning ticket. Sigourney »

We had "Inception" originally pegged as a sci-fi film, but let's face it, this thing isn't really all that sci-fi. So, we're going to start covering it on BeyondHollywood.com more often now as a result. The latest — a brand spanking new trailer for "Inception", which reveals more of a plot, complete with voiceover narration by Leonardo DiCaprio, who plays a high-tech thief named Cobb in the movie. He's joined by Ken Watanabe, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Ellen Page, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, Tom Berenger, Michael Caine, and Lukas Haas. "Inception" tantalizes July 16, 2010. And here's a fresh poster from the movie released a week or so ago. Looks like Warner Bros. is trying to ape the success of Nolan's "The Dark Knight" by way of posters. »

Warner Bros. has released the second trailer for Christopher Nolan's Inception. Yesterday, the studio yanked the French trailer and, we're not sure if they had planned to release the U.S. this soon, but here it is for your eyeballs.
The same thing happened in November when the Russian trailer for Angelina Jolie's Salt landed online. The trailer was quickly squashed and replaced with a U.S. version because we just can't handle foreign shite.
Inception revolved around a "CEO-type" who who becomes involved in a blackmailing scandal. The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Ellen Page (Juno), Ken Watanabe (The Last Samurai), the lovely Marion Cotillard (La Vie en Rose), Joseph Gordon Levitt ((500) Days of Summer), Tom Hardy (RocknRolla), Cillian Murphy (Batman Begins), Tom Berenger and Michael Caine.
Inception hits theaters on July 16.

You may have already seen this online with French dubbing but if you want to see the new trailer for Christopher Nolan's Inception in all its English language glory then check out the video below...
Not that watching the trailer in our native tongue makes things any clearer though, as Leonardo DiCaprio gets busy with the "architecture of the mind" and indulges in all manner of brain-twisty shenanigans as Ellen Page and co look on with knotted brows. Needless to say, nothing more plot-wise is explained here but it's looking like Nolan's visual eye is still finely attuned and our interest is naturally highly piqued.
Take a look at the trailer and don't forget to let us know what you think in the comments section...

A brand new trailer for "Inception" has just been released, and it gives a closer look at Leonardo DiCaprio as main character Cobb. While the promo video, which came out courtesy of Apple, still doesn't help to explain what the movie will be dealing with, it does tease on that Cobb's mission is stealing ideas.
In addition to displaying footage of an entire city folding over on itself, the sneak peek to the sci-fi movie exposes some of the scenes in which Cobb is joined by his sidekick Ariadne, played by Ellen Page. It also shares more glimpses on other characters, including Ken Watanabe's Saito.
Described as a "contemporary sci-fi actioner set within the architecture of the mind", "Inception" is based on an original script written by "The Dark Knight" director Christopher Nolan. In addition to serving as director, he will carry out the role of co-producer along with Emma Thomas. »

In case you didn't see Sherlock Holmes this weekend or catch the French version of this video, Warner Bros has released an English, high-resolution trailer for Christopher Nolan's Inception. The studio has kept details surprisingly secret for the science fiction story, so please pardon the lack of explanation for the eyegasm of random images and confusing dialogue. I honestly have no idea what's happening either. I can't wait to find out.
Set "within the architecture of the mind," Leonardo DiCaprio plays a CEO type that becomes entangled in a shady business of stealing ideas? Ellen Page, Marion Cotillard, Cillian Murphy, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Michael Caine, and Ken Watanabe also star.
Watch the embedded teaser below or in super high-res Quicktime at Apple.com:
Do yourself a favor and watch it twice. Inception is out in IMAX and traditional theaters on July 16, 2010.

Assuming there's any of your mind left to blow post-Avatar, the newest trailer for next summer's IMAX thriller Inception would seem to imply that director Christopher Nolan is seeking to do just that. This short but enticing clip features Leonardo DiCaprio and Ellen Page staring intently at objects and architecture, mostly with somewhat cataclysmic results. Still unclear on plot -- although Page's voice pleading "Wake me up!" would seem to indicate it's all a dream -- but for those looking to gnaw on some sweet visuals, this should be a tasty treat. What do you think, PopWatchers? »

Photo: Warner Bros. The previously released French international trailer for Inception was removed as it was accidentally made available to online outlets, but today the English version of that trailer has made it's online debut and I am sure you are chomping at the bit to hit play on the video below.
Inception is the new film from The Dark Knight helmer Christopher Nolan and stars Leonardo Dicaprio, Ellen Page, Ken Watanabe, Marion Cotillard, Joseph Gordon Levitt and Cillian Murphy. The only plot clue we have is the line describing the film is "a contemporary sci-fi actioner set within the architecture of the mind."
Make of that what you will. I haven't watched the trailer and am holding out for the film's July 16, 2010 release. So if you like it let it be known in the comments below.

The second, official trailer for Chris Nolan.s Ieception has arrived and it offers clues to what the heck this thing may be about. It.s the same trailer that showed up last week in French, only it makes a lot more sense when you actually speak the language. It.s narrated by star Leo DiCaprio, who talks a lot about ideas and seems to be hinting at the notion that he.s trapped in some sort of world controlled by the human mind. Late in the trailer he says this to Ellen Page: .Never recreate from your memory, always imagine new places.. More than ever I.m starting to get a Dark City vibe off this movie, and not just because there.s a scene in which the city seems to be folding in on itself. It looks fantastic.

If you like Mango Chutney, this one isn't a Major Grey type, but is very good: Mango Chutney (about 2 cups) 1 T oil Heat the oil in a saucepan over a medium heat and saute the ginger and garlic for about a minute...you want to smell the fragrance, but not brown the garlic. Add the rest of the ingredients except the salt, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for about an hour, or until the mango is cooked and starting to break down into a thick, chunky sauce, almost like preserves. Now salt to taste, remove the cinnamon sticks and cloves and pour into hot sterilized jars. Seal the jars and allow them to cool completely, then store in the refrigerator. Sometimes, since I like a pretty hot chutney, I'll slice some serrano peppers into very thin rounds (removing most of the seeds, I'm not crazy :D ) and mix them into the chutney just before I take it off the heat. This chutney is wonderful with just about any kind of grilled meat or fish. It's also terrific as a snack, with Indian pappadams (thin lentil crackers) or some other kind of cracker or chip to dip. For a walk on the wild side, substitute it for jelly in a peanut butter sandwich! |
I don't know about Major Grey's, but here's an old family recipe from my aunt that is really good. She got it from a native Hawaiian when they lived there about 50 years ago and we've been making it ever since. This makes a huge batch, so you might want to try a smaller one first to see if you like it. I prefer it without the almonds.

Overall we had a wonderful stay in this house. Our vacation was a bit over shadowed by the hurricane's this past summer. The owner had a care taker on island who was very helpful in getting us prepared for the [what turned out to be a non-event] and sharing evacuation details with us.
That being said this house might not be for everyone…I will break down the pros/cons.
--Location was perfect. Short easy drive to town, right on the ocean with a swimmable beach less than 5 minutes walk away.
--It easily accommodated our party of 8.
--We had beautiful ocean views and could watch the sea turtles right in front of our house.
--Kitchen was adequately equipped.
--Lots of outside furniture.
--Owner was very responsive and easy to work with.
--Price was incredible for what you got and the location.
--Windows were showing wear and tear from all the sea salt [some couldn't really be opened/closed]
--The worst part was only having AC in bedroom and not one in the common living area. The hurricane made it hotter and muggier than normal, but we had to close the windows every time we left so it got pretty hot. Although all the rooms had fans and it did cool of some at night it was uncomfortable, particular in the separate mother-in-laws bonus room. In all fairness we knew the place didn't have AC throughout, but I thought the trade winds would do a better job of cooling the place down.
--There was a small mix-up regarding having the place ready for our check-in. The owner quickly remedied this and refunded us the first night because of this delay.
The Best!
This rental house is incredible. It is exactly what it looks like on the pictures. WE have a total of 9 ppl stayed at this rental house and it was way more than enough...We held our wedding at this rental house and there was enough space for the ceremony, reception,dance and everything(we had 18 guests and some other helpers from the wedding planning company). The view is also phenomena. We enjoyed the greatest sunset view almost everyday. The kitchen is equipped with almost everything we needed to cook.(even salt and some salces, you probably still want to stop by at the grocery to buy stuff if you are going to cook) Hapuna beach nearby is a must go!The owner and the people who are responsible for questions during stay were extremely responsive. High recommend!!!

Carson Cunningham interviewing for college job; Kirk Kennedy likely new coach at North Judson
By MIKE HUTTON email@example.com Twitter: @MikeHuttonPT May 6, 2013 6:36PM
Lowell Red Devils coach, Kirk Kennedy, talks to his players after a close win over Plymouth during the second round of the sectionals. | Scott R. Brandush~Sun-Times Media

Updated: June 8, 2013 6:33AM
Six reasons Kirk Kennedy should return to Northwest Indiana and coach again.
1. It's colder here in the fall and it's way cooler to see a guy stomping up and down on the sidelines in shorts in below freezing weather than it is in central Indiana.
2. Kennedy is a run first coach, a Woody Hayes disciple, whose personality fits the rough hewn edges of the Region like a billowing steel mill. He is one of us, not one of them. He belongs here, not down there.
3. North Judson, the school that has offered him its head coaching job, has a wishbone history, dating back to Russ Radtke days as the head coach.
4. The rural, agricultural fit in North Judson-San Pierre is the perfect place for Kennedy to park his motorcycle. He did his best work at Lowell, a city that mirrors North Judson in many ways.
5. Newspaper guys love covering his games because they always finish at least 30 minutes earlier than a normal high school game. Why? Because when passing the ball is a distant second option, it makes the game move along much faster.
6. Kennedy hasn't changed his cell phone number, which has a 219 area code, since he left for Bloomington South at the start of the 2010 season.
More Kennedy notes: Kennedy's good friend, Brad Stewart, the coach at Kankakee Valley said on Friday that Kennedy was offered the North Judson job. Kevin Cox, the Blue Jays coach, resigned after 11 seasons this year. North Judson finished 5-7 in 2012 and they lost in the 2A sectional final to Lewis Cass this year. Stewart also said that Kennedy, who resigned from Bloomington South after three seasons with a 4-26 record, had other options he was exploring.
North Judson athletic director Rob Vessley, in an e-mail Tuesday, wrote in response to a question about Kennedy being named the new coach, that he "would be sending out an official statement Wednesday."
The North Judson school board meets the third Tuesday every month. They have a work session scheduled for 5 p.m. on Tuesday. What does this all mean? I'm guessing that Kennedy will be the new guy. Kennedy said he didn't have any comment at this time in a text message.
Cunningham interviews for college job: The Carson Cunningham era at Andrean could be coming to an end after five seasons. Cunningham, 84-39 in his tenure as the 59er's coach, is one of four finalists for the Carroll College Saints job in Helena, Montana. The Saints are an NAIA school.
The interview process, to say the least, is unique.
The school posted the names of all four finalists on its website and the local newspaper, the Independent, ran a story about all the candidates. On Monday and Tuesday of next week, all four of the applicants will have an open forum in front of the community, where the public can ask questions.
The job looks like a good fit for Cunningham, who doubles as a history teacher at DePaul in addition to being the 59er's head coach. Andrean won a Regional title for the first time since 2000 this year. He also is probably a long shot. The Independent story leads with Stephen Keller as the top candidate. Keller coaches at the University of Montana Western and he was an assistant at Carroll for three seasons. He has guided UMW to four NAIA play-off appearances. The other two coaches all have college coaching experience. Cunningham will interview later this week for the position, which had more than 200 applicants. Cunningham played out west at Oregon State before transferring back to Purdue and finishing up as a Boilermaker in 2011.
In a text, Cunningham wrote: "I'm flattered that Montana's Carroll College, one of the West's leading academic institutions and an NAIA athletic power, has invited me out to talk further about being its next men's basketball coach. When I return from Montana, I can comment further."
