Just a quick game I made for fun.
Use your barrage balloon to deflect away falling bombs.
Rated 2 / 5 stars
It's okay...
I mean, you did alright, but it's boring and super easy. After 107 I just quit. Just add something and I might actually touch this contaminated keyboard again.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
ok I'd just like to say that this game gets really repetitive and the difficulty never changes the only thing I saw change is the rate of bombs dropped and even then I did the same thing (move left and right along with the plane) I got bored after 125 bombs and quit.....also......the way the bombs are deflected usually would blow the city up.....but whatever......just...add....something .....to have the levels change difficulty cuz...currently......theres nothing to do that
suggestion:maybe some bombs need to be deflected 2 times would be a good idea but I dunno
Rated 4 / 5 stars
not too bad...
needs expansion though, as other people say, its repetitive
what about like, some bombs which require several reflections before they explode?
more enemies rather than just the one plane?

About the Cover
Up close and personal, that's the stunning photography of cichlid enthusiast Mo Devlin. This Nandopsis haitiensis is as tough as he looks-nicknamed the black nasty, this fish is not for squeamish hobbyists! More than a foot long and with a truly nasty attitude, this cichlid is well worth the trouble, at least for many "cichlidiots," like those attending the American Cichlid Association (ACA) Convention July 21-24, 2011 in Washington, D.C.

Tip of the Month:
That while most fish are either freshwater or marine, with a small number of species regularly inhabiting brackish estuarine habitats, a few fishes are at home in water of any salinity, including hypersaline - saltier than seawater! Some of these species, like the bull shark Carcharhinus leucas, are not potential aquarium specimens, but the group includes the popular sailfin molly Poecilla spp. and the much underappreciated native American sheepshead minnow Cyprinodon variegatus. These can be kept under fresh, brackish, or marine conditions.

This is also kind of hard to see. I know but at least most of it was already inked before I took the picture. This pic took the most work all because of 002's nose. I had so much trouble drawing his nose just right and boy did it take forever :( If you want to know what's going on, my cyborg OC 0015 (a.k.a. Makani) decided to pick a fight with 002 (a.k.a. Jet). In this pic 0015 reveals his ability to Jet and luckily he just barely moved out of the way in time. If he hadn't seen it coming Jet would have been fried by 0015's laser beam! o_o I actually went for the 009 style with this drawing so that's why their bodies are shaped strangely XD Once again, if my dad let's me borrow his scanner I'll post the scanned version of this pic and replace it. *Gah! My hand is in the way!

Film Review: The Bay (2012)
SYNOPSIS: Chaos breaks out in a small Maryland town after an ecological disaster occurs. REVIEW: Admittedly, when I first heard about a found footage style horror film being directed by the guy who gave us Rain Man, Good Morning Vietnam, and Toys I was a tad skeptical. Certainly Barry Levinson is a great director—he as an Oscar for crying out loud–, but the question that piqued my curiosity was what does he know about horror?? … Continue reading →

Agency is also planning a February discussion of environmental issues at ports.
Despite presence of federal mediator 'no further agreements have been reached.'
Councilman believes ports have taken "another step closer to a lockout."
Port director's tenure has seen projects to deepen harbor, raise Bayonne Bridge, expand marine terminals and intermodal rail.
Hueneme CEO says port could offer relief valve for congestion.
Consensus shows better growth than other parts of world.

Guest Column: City of Rockford needs to work with, not against, property owners
By Paul Gorski
If government wants to punish us for the actions of others, we should be given the tools to solve or prevent those problems. Paul Arena's guest column, "City fails public-private partnership" (June 6-12 issue of The Rock River Times) describes a local business association's frustration in dealing with the City of Rockford on such an issue.
As Mr. Arena points out, "The public should be aware that representatives of the Rockford Apartment Association (RAA), along with representatives of the Rockford Area Association of Realtors (RAAR), have been meeting with the city regarding regulation of rental property for more than four years." But after all that time, the city "circulates a proposal that encompasses all of the provisions of a licensing ordinance that we oppose most."
The city and the RAA want to be able to deal with problem tenants more effectively. To be clear, we are talking about tenant behavior or activity problems, not property conditions. The city appears to prefer disciplining the landlords, whereas the landlords would like to be given the laws or solution to deal with the tenants. I don't have a problem with the city going after the landlords, but only after giving the landlords the tools to deal with tenant behavior problems themselves, or to work through a review process.
One legitimate hurdle is that if a complaint is filed against a tenant, the police may not be able to share that information with a landlord because the case is under investigation. The city needs to solve that problem. It isn't fair to punish landlords for tenant behavior without giving landlords the information they need to work with the tenant. Otherwise, refer the matter to an independent body.
A solution proposed by the RAA is a review committee, supervised by the City of Rockford Housing Board, to consider complaints about repeat offenders. The review committee would be independent of the landlords. This seems to be a reasonable and low-cost solution. I was a member of such a committee almost 30 years ago, reviewing nuisance complaints for college housing units. So, the idea isn't new and is time-tested. It's about time the city gives it a try.
I urge the City of Rockford to work with the RAA to resolve this shared problem and consider a community review committee to hear chronic tenant complaints.
Paul Gorski is a Cherry Valley Township resident and a former Winnebago County Board member.

Yum? Apparently, the new overdubbed lyrics are: "I am hungry, I am hungry, I like Cup Noodle, I don't need other one." Which, to be fair to the Japanese branch of Cup Noodle Co., aren't any dumber than the original lyrics. Although, if I had come up with this commercial (oh man, dream a little DREAM!) I would have had him sing this:
Noodles made of virtual insanity
now always seem, to be governed by this cup we have
For noodles, twisting, our new technology
Oh now there is no sound for we all eat noodles underground
But I didn't come up with this commercial. Because I'm not a GENIUS. (Via Dlisted.)

"I'm sure this is a phenomenal story but..."
This is definitely a read only story. It seems beautiful however I don't think I'm intelligent enough to grasp it by listening. I will be buying the book though
not audio. he is a wonderful author however I need the written version so that I can have my dictionary next to me while reading it
He has a lot of feeling in his voice
I'm sure in written version I would adore it
"Just trying to make it through it"
I love Stephen King Duma Key, 11/22/63, and Under the Dome are wonderfully great books. I am not finished with this yet so my tune may still change but this book has bored me to tears. I am half way through and keep thinking and when am I going to stop being depressed. In all fairness though I for one do not like to listen to female narrators (it's just a personal preference) so that may have a little to do with it as well.
This book is a little hard to follow listening to it, maybe reading it would possibly be a bit better. But this book bores me with the baby talk and the senseless rambling.
It's not her fault, I am not a fan of females reading to me is all.
Well it is Stephen King so YES but I am positive when the movie cuts off some of the fluff it would be good.
Like I said this is only my review halfway through so who knows I may get to the end and say Wow what a wonderful story. But, so far I'm like OMG I know; I can't imagine how you must feel I feel sorry for you. And your hubby seemed like a bit of an egotistical donkey's behind that made you feel less than him, you stood in his shadow and actually thanked him for it. But, come on can you please get on with the story behind the story!
Do you think Stephen King ever gets tired of hearing "Stephen King has done it again" I am going to say that about this book!!! It's very much worth a second listen
Elizabeth - Her strength and courage
Yes but I don't want to give anything away. You know when you get to that part because it will move you as well. Although, really the book as a whole was very moving.
Thumbs up again!!
"Stephen King a Romance Novelist too Who Knew!!"
Love, Life, Loss
Cuthbert Allgood, I love his sense of humor!!
Hands down Detta Walker. He does an out of this world job on Detta Walker's character.
Getting through the first Dark Tower book was a little like pulling teeth. But oh so worth sticking to it! Every other book in the series is wonderful, with this book being my very favorite.
I fell in love with the characters, they were so real I actually missed them when the story was over!
Saying the best Stephen King is like saying the best piece of chocolate in the box. They are all good but this one really stands out. What I liked best about this story is probably the link to history, the research that must have went into this is astounding. If you like history meets fiction you will LOVE this book!!
Mr. Wasson is wonderful!!! He brings the story to life!
Every one of Stephen King's books bring an extreme reaction that is what makes him great, but yes there were tears at least twice that I remember.

Police: man lied
about crash
A Chittenden man charged with lying about being the driver in a crash on Adams Road in Pittsford pleaded innocent to the felony offense this week.
Andrew N. Rasulo III pleaded innocent in Rutland criminal court to a charge of false swearing, which carries a potential 15-year jail sentence.
Vermont State Police arrested Rasulo late last month following a crash on Jan. 6 that involved his 2001 Nissan Maxima. A passing motorist found the car at the crash scene at 3:32 a.m. No one was in the vehicle, but police say they found Rasulos cell phone in the wreck, according to court records.
Rasulo reported the car stolen later in the day and also filed a claim with his insurance company. Police say using evidence obtained from the phone, they suspected that Rasulo was driving the car at the time of the crash.
When confronted with evidence, Rasulo allegedly told police he struck a patch of black ice, lost control and crashed. He told police he was in shock and scared after the crash and left the area.
Asked later why he lied about his vehicle being stolen, Rasulo told police Because I thought my insurance company would pay for it.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER Vermonts state auditor is asking lawmakers to beef up the information consumers can...

The Holy Prophet Of Islam, Muhammad Ibn `Abdullah (Peace be on him and his progeny)
Name: Muhammad. Title: al-Mustafa. Agnomen: Abu'l-Qasim. Father's name: Abdullah ibn Abdi'1-Muttalib. Mother's name: Aminah bint Wahb. Birth: Born in Mecca on Friday, 17th Rabiu'l-awwal, in the Year of Elephant. Death: Died at the age of 63 in Medina on Monday, 28th Safar, 11 AH; buried in his apartment adjoining the mosque, in Medina.
The Holy Prophet said: "The first thing God created was my nur (light)."
The oldest and noblest tribe in the whole of Arabia was Banu Hashim. They were the descendants of Ibrahim through his son Isma'il. The Arabs respected and loved them for their goodness, knowledge and bravery.
In Mecca, baby boy Muhammad was born on 17th Rabi'ul-awwal, 570 AD. His father `Abdullah, son of 'Abdu1-Muttalib, died before he was born and when he was six, he lost his loving mother Aminah bint Wahb.
His grandfather, `Abdu1-Muttalib, took the responsibility of bringing up the orphan. At the age of ten, he was berefted of his venerable grandfather. On his deathbed, he appointed his son Abu Talib as the guardian of Muhammad.
Gentle, soft spoken, tall and handsome boy, Muhammad, accompanied the trading caravans of Abu Talib, across the deserts, giving him deep insight into nature and man.
In his youth, Muhammad participated in Hilf (Confederation of) al-Fudul for helping the widows and orphans and protecting the oppressed.
The Apostle of Allah was the handsomest of men and the most liberal and the bravest. He said:
*Convey to others no words of mine save, those you know for a certainty.
*Whosoever ascribes doctrines or precepts to me, and they are not mine, the same shall go to hell.

- Studio: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Distributing Corporation (MGM)
- Release Date: Jun 14, 2002
- Starring: Adam Beach, Nicolas Cage
- Summary: In 1942, several hundred Navajo Americans were recruited as Marines and trained to use their language as code. In John Woo's Windtalkers, Marine Joe Enders (Cage) is assigned to protect Ben Yahzee (Beach) -- a Navajo Code Talker, the Marines' new secret weapon. (MGM)
- Director: John Woo
- Genre(s): Action, History, Romance, War
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 14 out of 35
Mixed: 19 out of 35
Negative: 2 out of 35
Despite some of the sentimentality that is also Woo's stock-in-trade, I was moved and absorbed throughout.
Well matched both to the material and each other, Cage and Beach capture Windtalkers' true struggle, the fight to hold on to values like honor, friendship, and tenderness in an environment that demands otherwise. This is as much a Woo trademark as the carefully orchestrated gunplay.
While I don't always have the stomach for Woo's viscera or the heart for his pure, angelic heroes and impure, diabolical villains, I found myself responding to the context and subtext of Windtalkers while closing my eyes through what one might call its text. It's two-thirds of a great film.
We can only view Windtalkers with the same shaken detachment that characterizes Mr. Cage's Joe Enders, wishing that the codetalkers' real story, a little known and fascinating chunk of American history, had been given its true dramatic import.
The strength of Windtalkers is in its occasional, all-too-short respites from battle, when Enders is struggling with his demons and Yahzee is trying to understand his aloofness.
The movie deals superficially with Native American pride and racism in the ranks, but it's hardly about the codetalkers at all: Neither Woo nor the screenwriting team of Joe Batteer and John Rice seem to appreciate the bitter irony in a Native American soldier protecting his land by serving the very government that took most of it from him in the first place.
The Navajos must have sent much more crucial messages at much higher levels during the war, but you'd never know it from this movie. Windtalkers is practically all action and no talk.
Score distribution:
Positive: 6 out of 17
Mixed: 6 out of 17
Negative: 5 out of 17
PeterS.Sep 25, 2005Strange that a film with so much bloody carnage could be so unexciting.

Inevitably someone is going to say ANY lemongrass is too much But anyway... I brewed a wheat beer last year which was something akin to a witbier although a little darker, and included no unmalted wheat. I included coriander, orange peel and a little ginger, pitched T-58 yeast and it worked out quite well. I have a notion that lemongrass might work well in this beer but I'm unsure of how much to add, when to include it in the boil and whether I'll need to add more in secondary. I'm looking for a noticeable taste/aroma but I don't want it to overpower the beer. The recipe will be more or less 50/50 pale malt/wheat malt or could well be Wheat DME and a little CaraPils if time is a factor. I'll probably hop with Amarillo & Styrian Goldings to get a little citrus hint from the hops, I reckon it will be in the region of 15 to 20 IBUs. Any thoughts, tips, experiences to share?
The only reference I can remember for lemongrass is from Brew Like a Monk. In the recipe formulation section, Ron Jerffries makes up a Blond Ale with lemongrass in it. He says one short stock in 117 litres.
This place really went to hell. Follow the OF standard stout. Bye.
ANY lemongrass is TOO much. There, I said it. Wheat Malt, Pils Malt, Hallertau hops. That is all that is allows. Alles anderes ist VERBOTEN! (for a Bavarian Hefeweizen of course)
Cheers, EdWortHaus Pale Ale, Bavarian Hefeweizen, Robust Porter, Oktoberfest Ale, Wounded Knee IPA, Rye IPA, BCB IPA, Kolsch, Apfelwein
Another reference:http://www.probrewer.com/vbulletin/s...ght=lemongrass
Thanks for the tips guys, even you EdWort - the brewing world sure would be boring if everyone complied with the Reinheitsgebot Reading the ProBrewer thread it seems steeping it at flameout would be the thing to do - would you worry about infection? Granted I didn't worry about the spices in my last wit but the lemongrass is a bit more 'veggie' so I wonder if I should soak it in vodka (or spray it with Starsan? )
I wouldn't worry about infection if you use it at flameout - the heat should kill anything bad.
It had its moments

Despite my obsession with Game of Thrones and Lucy Worsley's The First Georgians right now, I am still televisually smitten with MTV's Catfish. The show that exposes online love fraudsters. The throwaway youth TV show that one's mind just cannot throw away. Instead, one sits post- episode genuinely saddened that our human need to love and be loved is so destructive. Or that the earth's supply of gullible optimists may well be infinite.

Troublemaking actor Shia LaBeouf chased after a homeless man — demanding he hand over a McDonald's bag in Times Square — a few hours before he went berserk at the Broadway musical "Cabaret," new video footage reveals. "He really wanted whatever was in that bag. He had so much focus … If there were French fries in the bag, maybe he really wanted to eat them," a witness said. He added, "He was dodging people and yelling, 'Yo, come on!' … He was on a mission. It was so bizarre." [NYP, earlier, earlier]

Given that it's very close to the pier, the rates are reasonable. The rooms were a bit small, as were the beds, and could use some upgrading. However, if you are here to see the sights and not spend all your time in your room, this hotel does the job. No restaurant on site but plenty are within a few blocks. If you have your own car, or a rental larger than a sub-compact, you may want to park elsewhere. I have never seen so many cars crammed into such a small space. Parking is open to the public and there aren't that many spots to begin with. Ask about the discount available at Jinky's (great breakfast place). Apparently they offer a 10% discount if staying at the Ocean View Hotel but the hotel staff doesn't mention it, even when asked for a breakfast recommendation.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Text of report by Hungarian privately-owned newspaper Nepszabadsag
website, on 19 August
[Report by Ildiko Csuhaj: "The Szell Plan Is Not Set in Stone"]
Certain measures in the schedule of planned structural changes, namely
the Kalman Szell Plan, are not set in stone, they can be rewritten - a
source close to the government confirmed to Nepszabadsag, mentioning for
example MAV's [Hungarian Railways] consolidation (the company's debt in
itself is approximately 300 billion forints), which could even be
The decision on revising the Kalman Szell Plan was made after the prime
minister [Viktor Orban] had announced in view of the worse than expected
economic data that the budget would have to be changed because a 100
billion forint hole had burst open in it. They did not say it in
concrete terms at Wednesday's [17 August] government session but -
according to one of the government players - it was clear that "the
number three economic action plan was to come" in September. According
to Nepszabadsag's information, the autumn package, namely the "number
three action plan" will become an organic part of the Kalman Szell Plan.
The prime minister insisted "above all" on adhering to this year's 2.94
per cent deficit plan, as well as reducing the state debt, what is more,
in several steps. It was confirmed to our correspondent that they do not
feel that the 2011 targets are in danger, rather, they would like to
create an adequate "starting position" for adhering to the 2012 deficit
(2.5 per cent), for which the 550 billion forints adjustment of the
Kalman Szell Plan would not be enough. (According to plans, the schedule
would improve the state administration balance by 902 billion forints in
each of 2013 and 2014 along a 2.2 per cent and 1.9 per cent deficit
The government does not consider it a guarantee for financial viability
that the Hungarian government bond market is one of the better
performing ones in the [European] Union. Government politicians have
drawn attention to analyst opinions that the value of foreign-owned
government bonds is continually rising and is already at around 3,500
billion forints. They consider it a warning that most of these are not
held by long-term strategic investors who keep their money in Hungarian
bonds for a long period. Furthermore, in 2012 it will not be possible to
rely on the savings redirected from private pension funds, while the
foreign exchange bond issue will rise, partly because the repayment of
the IMF loan will start.
The government does not consider it a sufficient condition that the
Hungarian budget deficit can be financed with Chinese and Arab money.
This is in spite of the fact that, after his talks with the Chinese
prime minister two months ago, Viktor Orban called it a historic help
that China was willing to buy Hungarian government bonds. At the time,
he said it with a fair amount of optimism that this security was needed
for Hungary to be able to boldly follow the road of economic
restructuring to the end. The programme of restructuring the Hungarian
economy cannot become halted owing to financial uncertainties. He said
that "as for me, with this, I can see the uncertainty of the country's
medium-term financial viability to be disappearing."
For now, Fidesz [-Hungarian Civic Alliance] and Christian democrat
deputies asked by Nepszabadsag do not know what kind of cost cutting the
government would like to use in addition to the "serious reduction in
bureaucracy" Orban mentioned on Wednesday. They are certain that Orban
would insist on the labour market measures mentioned also in Tusnadfurdo
[Baile Tusnad in Romanian]. According to the government, the essence of
this is that life strategies cannot be built on living on unjustified
disability allowance, early retirement, or hundreds of thousands living
on benefits. Not even if these changes "will all torment families,
require change and effort, and of course they will also torment
society," the prime minister admitted. It was made clear by Fidesz, as
well as the KDNP [Christian Democratic People's Party] that the deputies
would not support solutions that went against the decision of the 2008
welfare referendum (which prevented the introduction of the ! visiting
fee and tuition fee) in education or healthcare. "I am certain that no
proposals will be made on cutting costs which affect issues that we have
already closed and decided through policy decisions," a high-ranking
government politician said.
Fidesz-KDNP circles - emphatically without concrete information - expect
that the government will be able to make savings on "institutional
levels" and obtain resources from these.
The Budget Will Be Saved Without MOL
As Nepszabadsag has learned, the prime minister is unchanged in his
opinion that he would not like the MOL [Hungarian oil and gas company]
package to be the lifebelt in the case of an emergency. "We did not buy
the MOL shares to sell them," this is said to be his opinion. However, a
few weeks ago, along with others, Mihaly Varga [state secretary at the
Prime Minister's Office] said that ultimately it could be possible that
the government would sell part of the recently acquired MOL package in
early 2012. Varga held out this prospect for a situation if the
country's safe financing was at the stake. According to Nepszabadsag's
information, even if this did take place, only a small part of the
government-owned package would be offered for sale.

"The Boy Next Door" is terrible, but it isn't delightfully terrible enough. An R-rated erotic thriller starring Jennifer Lopez as a sexy high school English teacher being stalked by a hunk half her age should wallow in its over-the-top premise. And it does, eventually — but the insane climax of Rob Cohen's film only makes you wish the rest of it were as much fun. My RogerEbert.com review.
Jan 15
First of all, I'm not sure why I care so much. I said this to my husband this morning after the Academy Award nominations came out and I was thoroughly worked up over how terrible they were. I'm not sure why any of us care so much, actually. Maybe it's because we see movies to get lost in them and end up becoming emotionally invested in them. Maybe it's just fun to make predictions and be right. In theory, it should be satisfying enough to see a film and be dazzled or touched or provoked or whatever. It should be about the art, not the congratulatory hardware.
Still, here we are on Hollywood's Biggest Morning, waking up at 5:30 a.m. Pacific time, analyzing and agonizing over what went wrong and what went right. I have a few thoughts but then must dash off to write a review of "The Wedding Ringer." We still have January releases to contend with, after all.
SELMA: It scored a well-deserved best picture nomination and one for Common and John Legend's original song, "Glory." But that is not nearly enough for this powerful, beautifully acted and passionately made picture. Ava DuVernay belongs in that best-director category — and she would have made history as the first female filmmaker of color. And it's unfathomable that David Oyelowo didn't get a best-actor nomination for his searing and sensitive portrayal of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He tore that role up but he also found the quiet humanity in this iconic figure. I'd like to think the paltry number of nominations had more to do with a late release date and a lack of screeners than an institutional racism and sexism within this extremely white, extremely male voting body. But it doesn't look good. Maybe this will inspire more folks to go see it, though.
THE LEGO MOVIE: The biggest stunner of all and the one that made the Unikitty in me want to explode with rage. Heading into this morning, "The Lego Movie" looked like the favorite to WIN the Oscar for best animated feature. It didn't even receive a nomination. Nothing about this makes sense. How is it possible that this gorgeous, detailed, lively, funny, crowd-pleasing and affirming film isn't one of the five best animated features of the year? Was it just too different aesthetically — too edgy, too innovative? Did the brief mix of live action at the end throw people off? It did earn a nomination for best original song, though: the now-ironically titled "Everything Is Awesome."
LIFE ITSELF: Steve James' look at the life and last days of Roger Ebert, based on Ebert's autobiography of the same name, seemed like a shoo-in for the documentary feature category. It's resonated with audiences worldwide, earned rave reviews and drew strong ratings when it aired earlier this month on CNN. It's a well-made and intimate look at a man who has influenced so many of us, one who remains a revered and adored figure among anyone who loves film. So not seeing "Life Itself" listed among the five nominees was indeed a shocker. But interestingly, "Finding Vivian Maier," co-directed by Gene Siskel's nephew, Charlie, did receive a best-documentary nomination. The rivalry remains strong in the afterlife.
BEST ACTOR: As I mentioned earlier, Oyelowo should be in this race.So should Jake Gyllenhaal, doing the best work of his life as a supremely creepy TV news videographer in "Nightcrawler." Instead, we get Bradley Cooper, who is admittedly very good in "American Sniper" and earns his third consecutive nomination following "Silver Linings Playbook" and "American Hustle." We also get Steve Carell, who was chilling in a rare dramatic turn as John DuPont in "Foxcatcher," a movie that was too chilly as a whole. (Carell's nose also got nominated in the hair and makeup category.) It was an extremely tight year. There are a good dozen actors who belonged in this race. The other three who did make it — Michael Keaton in "Birdman," Eddie Redmayne in "The Theory of Everything" and Benedict Cumberbatch in "The Imitation Game" — have been major players all along.
SPEAKING OF "FOXCATCHER:" The film's director, Bennett Miller, surprisingly received a nomination this morning. I've enjoyed his previous films — "Capote" and "Moneyball" — but this one just felt too emotionally detached, even though it's based on a dramatic, real-life story. Miller takes the spot Clint Eastwood earned at the Directors Guild nominations for "American Sniper"; otherwise, the Oscars and the DGAs are aligned, as they so often are. And as usual, they are all men: Besides Miller, there's Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu ("Birdman"), Richard Linklater ("Boyhood"), Wes Anderson ("The Grand Budapest Hotel") and Morten Tyldum ("The Imitation Game").
AND SPEAKING OF MEN: They're the subjects of all eight of this year's best-picture nominees: "American Sniper," "Birdman," "Boyhood," "The Grand Budapest Hotel," "The Imitation Game," "Selma," "The Theory of Everything" and "Whiplash." And all but one of those, "Selma," are about white men.
AND SPEAKING OF WHITE PEOPLE IN GENERAL: Every single acting nominee is white. All 20 of them across all four categories. There hasn't been this complete lack of diversity since 1998. Way to shake things up, Academy.
I'M SORRY, WHAT WAS THAT?: "Interstellar" earned nominations for both its sound mixing and editing? I couldn't hear what you were saying, the music was too loud. (The overpowering score earned Hans Zimmer yet another Oscar nomination, by the way.)
AND YET, "IDA": The subtly powerful Polish drama "Ida" from director and co-writer Pawel Pawlikowski was a lock for the foreign-language category. I was pleased to see it make it in there, but it also received a surprising nomination for its exquisite black-and-white cinematography from Ryszard Lenczewski and Lukasz Zal. Every single frame is a work of art. This is my favorite nomination of the day. But! They'll probably lose to Emmanuel Lubezki for his daredevil work on "Birdman." This means my hero, Roger Deakins, also will lose once again — for the 12th time — for his dramatic work on "Unbroken," which is the best part of the whole film.
AND "FEAST": The adorable little movie that plays before "Big Hero 6″ got a much-deserved nomination for best animated short. "Feast" does so much in such a small amount of time — which is appropriate given that its subject, a Boston terrier, is the kind of dog who thinks he's much bigger than he really is. Now, maybe I'm a tad biased because we are the proud human companions of a Boston terrier ourselves, but this movie was a complete charmer. It also left me with tears streaming down my face and my 5-year-old son in my lap wondering what the hell was wrong with me. Go find it.
DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS: And finally, after all this bitching, I'm going to end on a positive by noting that this was a great day for Texas filmmakers. Linklater and Anderson — both born in Houston, with Linklater remaining a major force in Austin — scored their first best-picture and best-director nominations. This is sort of mind-boggling given that they've established themselves as such important, singular voices over the past couple decades. So maybe there's some reason to celebrate, after all — with a Shiner Bock, even.

One of the most powerful aspects of Jonathan Glazer's gorgeous and daring "Under the Skin" is its score from British singer-songwriter and producer Mica Levi: a haunting mix of strings, percussion and flute that's sometimes unsettling, sometimes dreamlike and always original. It keeps you on edge from the very beginning, and it beautifully accompanies the transformation that Scarlett Johansson's character undergoes.
Last night at the newly reopened Regent Theater in Downtown Los Angeles, I had the great pleasure of rewatching the film with Levi conducting a 25-piece orchestra which performed the score before a sold-out audience. The century-old theater, which was home to grindhouse fare and porn in the 1970s, has been restored to its former glory, and it provided an intimate and appropriately dramatic setting for such a bold film.
In case you haven't seen "Under the Skin" — and you really should, since it's one of 2014′s best — Johansson stars as a sexy, otherworldly being who prowls the streets of Scotland in a minivan seeking lonely, single men to fulfill her nefarious purposes. It's challenging and intentionally ambiguous but also just exquisite in its imagery, visual effects and sound design.
Watching it again with Levi at the helm, I noticed several different elements I didn't catch completely upon initial viewing. When I first saw the movie, it blew me away from both a technical and a narrative perspective. And Johansson's performance truly wowed me: It's probably the best work of her long and eclectic career because it requires her to be both seductive and elusive, often within the blink of an eye.
This time, there was a heightened buzz in the room with such gifted musicians performing this awesome and avant-garde score right in front of us. The staccato of the violas sizzled even more, and the steady drum that's the heartbeat of Johansson's hunt provided an even more unbearable feeling of suspense. But I also felt more aware of her arc — possible spoilers ahead — as she goes from cold and driven predator to uncertain and emotional prey. Glazer establishes subtle parallels: the way she walks backward as she lures various men into her lair, and then later follows a man who's walking backward as he leads her down a narrow, scary staircase. His camera tracks men walking down the street, lingering as it sizes them up, but regards the women who walk by with indifference.
I also noticed the first contacts with humanity that touched her even earlier — the blood on her hand from a street vendor's rose precedes her encounter with the kindhearted, facially disfigured man who earns her reprieve. And the terror she experiences once she opens herself up to mortal sensations felt even more chilling this time around. It felt immediate and intense, and I'm certain that had everything to do with hearing the climactic section of the score played live.
It was also just extremely cool to see Levi do her thing so calmly, so commandingly, before a packed house. She's only 28 years old and this is her first film score — she's probably best known as Micachu of the experimental pop band The Shapes — which makes her the rare woman composing music for movies today. Think about it: When you consider the most prominent and acclaimed composers in film history, names like Nino Rota, Ennio Morricone, John Williams, Hans Zimmer, Alexandre Desplat and Danny Elfman come to mind. All men.
Levi is blazing a trail both musically and just through her sheer presence. She also happens to be the Los Angeles Film Critics Association's winner of the best music score award, tying with Jonny Greenwood for his work on "Inherent Vice." I'd say we chose pretty well — and I can't wait to see (and hear) what she does next.
Jan 2
Greetings from Banff, Alberta, where I've been skiing all week with my family in the stunning Canadian Rockies. My L.A. kid had never even seen snow in person, much less skied on it, prior to this trip. He's having a blast — we all are — but naturally, the dramatic scenery got me thinking about movies, as most things do. (Thankfully, we've avoided "Force Majeure"-style, avalanche-as-metaphor antics during our vacation.)
So here's a list of five great movies in which snow is a crucial factor. Bundle up and let's go …
"Doctor Zhivago" (1965): David Lean's Oscar-winning epic, set during the Russian Revolution, features Omar Sharif and Julie Christie in a seriously dramatic love affair with some seriously dramatic costumes. So. Much. Fur. Plus, you have 3 1/2 hours to kill, right?
"The Shining" (1980): It doesn't snow for the entirety of Stanley Kubrick's Stephen King adaptation, but the icy, frigid backdrop of the labyrinth chase makes the film's climax especially haunting. Just try to un-see the look on Jack Nicholson's face here.
"For Your Eyes Only" (1981): Perhaps THE greatest James Bond chase scene ever. Nothing this stressful (or athletic) has happened to us during our vacation, but Chris just mentioned to me that every time we go skiing, he gets the iconic Bond theme song stuck in his head at least once a run.
"Fargo" (1996): The snow is so essential to "Fargo," it almost feels like a character itself. The unforgiving bleakness of the surroundings sets a pervasive tone, and it provides a striking backdrop for the film's violent, bloody moments. Easily one of my favorites from the Coen brothers.
"A Simple Plan" (1998): As in "Fargo," the snow heightens the sense of dread and isolation in Sam Raimi's great (and greatly underappreciated) crime thriller. If you found a giant bag of cash in the dead of winter near a plane crash in middle-of-nowhere Minnesota, wouldn't you keep it, too?
UPDATE, Jan. 3: A frequent visitor to my Facebook page, Shannon Nutt, astutely points out that I completely spaced "The Empire Strikes Back" (1980). Because, Hoth. This is embarrassing as the parent of a "Star Wars"-obsessed child, so I'm going to break my own rules here and add a sixth movie to the list, with my thanks to Shannon for the great pick. Enjoy.
