Boston — As church bells ringing to "God Bless America" echoed through the city, in the Cathedral of the Holy Cross the Boston Children's Chorus sang "I Went Up to the Mountain," Cardinal O'Malley relayed a prayer from Pope Francis, and the mother church of the Archdiocese of Boston welcomed pastors, rabbis, and imams of various faiths to a morning of prayer.
"Lord bless this broken-hearted city," Reverend Liz Walker from Roxbury Presbyterian asked near the beginning of the service, which was also attended by Boston mayor Thomas Menino, Massachusetts governor Deval Patrick, former governor Mitt Romney, and President Obama.
But the overall tone of the interfaith gathering was less requiem than revival. Religious leaders mourned for the victims — 29-year-old Krystle Campbell, 23-year-old Lingzu Lu, and eight-year-old Martin Richard — but they also celebrated Boston's bravery and America's resolve.
"The Massachusetts licenses plate says 'the spirit of America,' and I pray the world right now this moment will look at us and see the true spirit of America," said Bishop John W. Borders III, of the Morning Star Baptist Church of Boston.
The president's fine speech spoke of the city of Boston's unique place in American history, and predicted that next year's Boston Marathon will reflect the city's determination to heal. "Of that I have no doubt. You will run again," the president said to a standing ovation. "Bet on it."
The president and others invoked the scripture of 2 Timothy 4:7, assured that Bostonians will "keep the faith," and "finish the race."
Taking a walk around the crime scene last night I had my own interfaith experience. As I approached the cordon at Boylston Street (where a Port Authority PBA canteen had been set up to refresh law enforcement still working on scene), I saw a group of young men and women singing and chanting at the site of the informal memorial that had been set up for the victims. They turned out to be students from the nearby Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology, here because a few of them had suggested gathering at the site to pray.
I didn't catch the beginning, and unfortunately the very end of this song is cut off, but what I captured moved me greatly.

Reads quite well. I dig it.
Hercules Morse
You idiots realise that people were capable of getting 4k+ health since, I dunno, the launch of the game? And will continue to be able to do it even if/when one item (warmogs) is nerfed? Of all the things to complain about... Xelnath, you didnt exactly pick the best words, implying that this is a 'fix' for health stacking, but I didnt think GD was this dumb. This is a good addition to the ui, has nothing to do with the power of warmogs.
I also find this ironic that they used an Amumu (broken champ) model with the name 'Towerkiller'. Because they know towers are ****ing useless when you have more health than a tower at level 7, and Amumu is ****ing broken to boot. Insult to GD's injury. Good subtle trolling on Xelnath's behalf.
Alright, I'll be the one to ask. What exactly is a "Wizardlock, right hand of the 7th order of obsidian blackfire ebonstone dark Witchlords"? And what are its job duties?
I know you said your topic title in jest, but it's not a joke to people man. It's sucks having to play this boring stale meta full of health. It's not tomorrow, it's right now. It's not funny.
Makes sense. Keeps everything simple and doesn't make people learn something new. Other than the black bars meaning 1k hp.

Investors can benefit in the long run
Overreliance on it can be a major problem

Technology giant Apple ( AAPL ) reported blockbuster second quarter fiscal 2014 results after the bell yesterday. The company beat on both the top and bottom lines, and surprised the market with huge 7-for-1 stock split announcement. This has lent optimism not only to the company's growth story but has also spread bullishness in the entire tech world, which has seen broad sell-off in the past weeks.Apple Results in Focus Earnings per share came in at $11.62, which comfortably surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $10.22 and improved from the year-ago earnings of $10.09. The company's earnings growth reached the highest rate in six quarters. Revenues rose 4.7% year over year to $45.6 billion, and were well ahead of our estimate of $43.4 billion. Gross margin was 39.3%, up from 37.5% in the year-ago quarter and higher than the company's expectation of 37-38%. Apple sold 43.7 million iPhones compared to 37.4 million in the year-ago quarter and topped the Wall Street estimate of 38.5 million iPhones. iPad sales fell to 16.35 million from 19.5 million (read: Technology ETFs: Pain or Gain Ahead? ). The ubiquitous gadget-maker sees revenues in the range of $36-$38 billion for the current quarter; the midpoint of which is lower than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $38.76 billion. Further, Apple expects gross margin in the range of 37-38% for the third quarter of fiscal 2014. Apple showed increased confidence in its future growth by raising shareholders' reward. The company raised its share repurchase program by $30 billion, boosted its quarterly dividend by 8% to $3.29 per share and split its stock on a 7-for-1 basis effective June 9. This will increase the company's capital-return program to $130 billion by the end of calendar year 2015.Market Impact Outstanding results and the expanded capital program sent the Apple shares higher as much as 8% in after-market hours on heavy volume. This indicates smooth trading for some of the ETFs having the largest allocation to this giant. Further, the stock has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) and its industry also has a solid Zacks Rank (in the top 40%) as per the Zacks Industry Rank , suggesting room for upside. Given this, investors should closely monitor the movement in these technology-focused ETFs and could catch the opportunity from any surge in AAPL price. Below, we have highlighted some of the ETFs having double-digit exposure to Apple and could be in focus in the coming days (see: all the Technology ETFs here ):ETFs to ConsideriShares Dow Jones US Technology ETF (IYW ) This ETF tracks the Dow Jones US Technology Index, giving investors exposure to the broad technology space. The fund holds 143 stocks in its basket with AUM of $3.9 billion while charging 45 bps in fees and expense. Volume is moderate as it exchanges nearly 378,000 shares in hand a day. Apple occupies the top position in the basket with 15.94% of assets. The product is heavily skewed toward the technology hardware and equipment segments, as these make up for half of the portfolio. Software and computer services take the remaining portion in the basket. The fund has added nearly 2.4% in the year-to-date time frame and has a Zacks ETF Rank of 3 or 'Hold' rating with a Medium risk outlook.Select Sector SPDR Technology ETF (XLK ) ) The most popular technology ETF on the market, XLK follows the S&P Technology Select Sector Index. This fund manages about $12.5 billion in asset base and trades in heavy volume of roughly 7.7 million. The ETF charges 16 bps in fees per year from investors (read: 3 Dirt Cheap Top Ranked ETFs to Buy Now ). In total, the fund holds about 73 securities in its basket. Of these firms, AAPL takes the first spot, making up roughly 13.41% of the assets. In terms of industrial exposure, the fund is widely spread across hardware storage & peripherals, software, IT services, Internet software & services and diversified telecom services that make up for double-digit allocation. The fund is up over 2% year-to-date. XLK currently has a Zacks ETF Rank of 3 or 'Hold' rating with a Medium risk outlook.Vanguard Information Technology ETF (VGT ) This fund manages over $5 billion in asset base and provides exposure to a large basket of 394 technology stocks by tracking the MSCI US Investable Market Information Technology 25/50 Index. The ETF has 0.14% in expense ratio while volume is moderate. Again here, AAPL is the top firm with 12.7% allocation. From a sector perspective, technology hardware & storage take the largest share at 18.2%, closely followed by Internet software & services (16.70%) and systems software (14.30%). VGT has added 1.4% year-to-date and has a Zacks ETF Rank of 2 or 'Buy' rating with a Medium risk outlook (read: Time to Bargain Hunt with This Technology ETF? ).Bottom Line Due to heavy allocation to Apple, the three products could see solid trading in the next few sessions. Investors should definitely cash in on any surge in the prices of these funds resulting from Apple results and the ways to increase shareholders return given that the trio has decent ranks and the potential to outperform or perform on par with the broad market.

Comments about Classic Garden Bench:
As I was assembling, from instruction that were tattered with rather poor pictures, I had not one, but two screw heads shear off during assembly! The first I was able to remove, given 10 minutes and a vise grip. The second required another drill hole and deck screws I had in the basement. Shoddy..

Comments about Classic Garden Bench:
The bench looks great and indeed looks like weathered teak except from VERY close. Construction was solid and the assembly instructions were easy to follow. The only problem with assembly is that the screws used have a star pattern on the heads. There is a screwdriver/drill bit included but the star pattern in the screws is not deep enough for the bit to "grip" the screw, so you almost strip the heads of the screws when tightening them fully. Also, using a power drill is impossbile for this reason. I ended up using my own bit with a ratchet to tighten it---which was quite cumbersome.

Theeve Trucks TiAX - Titanium Axle - Pair
Great trucks!!
I have skated a variety of trucks for transition and pool skating over the years, Indys, Gull Wing, Grind King, etc. The Theeve TiAX titanium axle trucks are the most stable and best turning trucks I have ever owned.
The trucks can whip carves and turns quickly but are very stable riding pools or grinding coping. Good for 50-50s too. I thought Indys were stable but the Theeves are better.

Annie Altschul
This article relies largely or entirely upon a single source. (March 2010) |
Annie Altschul, CBE, FRCN (b. 18 February 1919, Vienna – d. 24 December 2001, Edinburgh) was a British nurse, midwife, researcher and educator.
Early years[edit]
Born in Vienna, Annie Therese Altschul was five years old when her father was killed in a railway accident. She was studying mathematics at the University of Vienna when she and her family fled the Anschluss in 1938, winding up in London.
She trained as a nurse and midwife at Epsom County Hospital. In 1946 Altschul became a staff nurse at the Maudsley Hospital, a psychiatric centre. In 1964 Altschul left Maudsley to be a lecturer in the Department of Nursing Studies at Edinburgh University. In 1972 Altschul wrote Patient-Nurse Interaction. In 1976 she became Professor of Nursing Studies, and remained at Edinburgh University until her retirement in 1983.
Prof. Altschul observed the effects when patients were moved to smaller accommodations during the redecoration of the large wards at Dingleton mental hospital in the Scottish Borders. She observed that the closer interaction between nurses and patients resulted in less hyperactivity and less need for certain types of medications.
- Mental Health Commission in Scotland
- The Socialist Medical Association
- The Scottish General Nursing Council
- Royal College of Nursing
She was appointed CBE in 1983. She established the Professor Annie Altschul Publication Prize.

"Even at the beginning, not everyone in the administration was intent on honoring this promise. Robert Gates noted in his memoirs that Dick Cheney, then the defense secretary, took a more opportunistic tack: 'When the Soviet Union was collapsing in late 1991, Dick wanted to see the dismantlement not only of the Soviet Union and the Russian empire but of Russia itself, so it could never again be a threat to the rest of the world.'
"... As it happened, NATO was indeed active, under Bill Clinton's leadership, and moving decisively to expand eastward, whatever prior Republican understandings there might have been with the Russians... Already plushly installed in Warsaw and other Eastern European capitals were emissaries of the defense contractors. 'Lockheed began looking at Poland right after the Wall came down,' Dick Pawloski, for years a Lockheed salesman active in Eastern Europe, told me. 'There were contractors flooding through all those countries.'

LANL's Central Mission
Los Alamos Lab officials have recently claimed that LANL has moved away from primarily nuclear weapons to "national security", but what truly remains as the Labs central mission? Here's the answer from one of its own documents: LANL's "Central Mission"- Presented at: RPI Nuclear Data 2011 Symposium for Criticality Safety and Reactor Applications (PDF) 4/27/11
Radioactive Quotes
"The US modernization program is producing nuclear forces that will severely complicate the chances of backing away from disaster if a crisis were to occur. Anyone who looks at history knows that such crises will occur, and that they result from unpredictable and unforeseen events. This basic truth should be the basis for a sober re-evaluation of the modernization program. In a world that is fundamentally unpredictable, the pursuit of an unchallenged capacity to fight and win a nuclear war is a dangerous folly." "...This is a very, very serious issue and I am afraid it may be just the tip of the iceberg... And part of it may be some reductions in our nuclear inventory, but I think we just have to look at every option here rather than just say 'OK we are just going to spend X more billions of dollars'." "Nuclear war is the black swan we can never see, except in that brief moment when it is killing us. We delay eliminating the risk at our own peril. Now is the time to address the threat, because now we are still alive."
Every little bit helps!
"We cannot at once keep sacred the miracle of existence and hold sacrosanct the capacity to destroy it." -Gen. Lee Butler (Ret.), former Commander in Chief, U.S. Strategic Command |
Our Mission: Through comprehensive research, public education and effective citizen action, Nuclear Watch New Mexico seeks to promote safety and environmental protection at regional nuclear facilities, mission diversification away from nuclear weapons programs, greater accountability and cleanup in the nation-wide nuclear weapons complex, and consistent U.S. leadership toward a world free of nuclear weapons.
Nuclear Watch New Mexico is supported by the Ploughshares Fund: Investing in Peace and Security Worldwide, the Columbe Foundation, Santa Fe Community Foundation Donor Advised Grants, the New Mexico Community Foundation, the New-Land Foundation, and by generous donors like you. Thank You! |

International Edition
On the first day of 2011, our Facebook and Twitter feeds were glutted with friends' New Year's pledges to graze through hectares of leafy greens, ferry home wheelbarrows of winter roots and bunk down with Brussels sprouts and broccoli.
Celebrity chef and Meatless Monday booster Mario Batali publicly resolved to make and eat dinner with his kids, and "master more vegetarian dishes, like simple bruschetta, that are fun to cook as a team." By January 3rd, the Wall Street Journal aided George Ball, chairman of the W. Atlee Burpee Co. in dubbing it yea and verily to be the Year of the Vegetable.
Yet within days of the work week commencing (or the Champagne finally wearing off) that fervor wilted, giving way to an apologetic trickle of, "Yeah...I give up. Vegetables are too much work." "Too...cold...for...farmers...market..." "zOMG the organic stuff is sooooo expensive!" and "#resolutionfail Back to Lean Cuisine. I don't know what to DO with vegetables." They're hardly alone. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Healthy People 2010 data, only six percent of men and four percent of women eat enough vegetables.
That's not good enough.
Vegetables aren't just rich in the vitamins, minerals, fiber and healthy carbohydrates it takes to build and maintain healthy bodies. They're often wallet-friendly, fat-free and most importantly to us (we're a food site, not a health site - though we know a really great one) they're packed with incredible flavor and can be prepared in endless ways. We'll share a few of our favorite ways to cook vegetables that are in season right now, but first, a few tips:
Suggested Seasoning Yup, there will be people telling you that you shouldn't eat this vegetable or that one because it's not in peak season. Tell 'em to go and pick a peck. It is, of course, more natural and often more delicious to enjoy vegetables at the height of their natural cycle, and a good chance that they've used up less trucking fuel. But if that's what's tipping the scale toward you eating a vegetable that day or opting for something processed - then munch that off-peak pepper, friend. We're not here to judge.
Food Police? Puh-leez Again, we won't argue that it's not better for your local farmers, the planet's future and your palate to eat locally, sustainably grown produce. Try and do that as frequently as possible - maybe join a CSA or a co-op to make sure you have a steady supply of the good stuff. We also live in the real world, where time and cash flow sometimes trump good intentions. Just do your best.
Michael Pollan is not going to come into your kitchen and smack the hothouse cucumber out of your hand and Alice Waters (probably) won't rappel into your dining room and mace you for serving non-organic melon. So long as you're trying to incorporate as many simply-prepared vegetables as feasible into your diet, you're ahead of the game.
Fresh Is Best, But... Folks online really do love getting their knickers in a knot over the mere existence of pre-sliced, pre-packaged, frozen and otherwise removed-from-nature vegetables. In an ideal world, we would all be peeling, chopping and shucking all produce just moments after it came from the ground, but life just loves to get in the way.
The world will not end if you have some frozen kale at at the ready (Whole Foods just announced a new line of flash-frozen veggies today as a part of their Health Starts Here program), nab a bagged salad on your way home (just wash it thoroughly) or pick up a pack of pre-chopped cauliflower. It doesn't mean you're lazy, an insufficient parent or, heaven forfend, a "bad foodie."
Someday, we'll all have that heirloom, from-seed, pesticide-free, Martha-esque garden just steps from the back door and oodles of hours to while away in veggie prep. Until then - just do the best you can.
Winter vegetables in current rotation chez Eatocracy:
Kale chips - Pre-heat oven to 350°F, strip leaves from the center stalk, spray or brush with cooking oil (we dig olive oil, but use what you've got), sprinkle with kosher salt and spread in single layers on baking sheets. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until crispy but not burnt. Eat 'em like potato chips.
This method also works well with spinach or chard leaves, and benefits beautifully from a sprinkling of sesame seeds or a spritz of soy sauce or tamari.
Cauliflower florets - Pre-heat oven to 400°F, trim florets from the center stem, spray or brush with oil, place on a baking sheet and sprinkle with a mixture of equal parts cumin, paprika, curry powder and salt - or your favorite spices. Bake for 5 minutes, flip florets with a spatula and bake for another 5 minutes or until tender and very lightly browned. Serve immediately as a side or a snack.
Winter squash - We've got you covered with Chef Tony Conte's 5@5 on squash cooking tips and our primer on roasting butternut squash, but the cucurbit that's currently rocking our socks is acorn.
Pre-heat oven to 400°F, slice acorn squash in half vertically and scoop out the seeds. Score the insides of the squash a few times on each side and brush with melted butter. Sprinkle some brown sugar and a pinch of salt on the cut sides, along with a drizzle of maple syrup if you'd like it a bit sweeter.
Place the halves, cut side up in a baking dish with 1/4 cup of water at the bottom of it. Bake for 1 hour, then check for tenderness; the flesh should be quite soft and the tops browned. Check again at 10 minute intervals until they reach desired doneness. Let the halves cool slightly and serve as-is, cut-side up, with a fork to scoop out the deliciousness.
Want to stick to the savory side? Nix the brown sugar and syrup and go with butter, grated parmesan and a bit of nutmeg. Cumin and coriander also play well with most squashes' nutty sweetness.
Roasted root vegetables - Pre-heat oven to 400°F, then peel and cut your favorite root vegetables - this works well with carrots, sweet potatoes, rutabagas, parsnips, onions and celery root - into roughly 1-inch pieces and place them in baking dishes. In a bowl, whisk together equal parts olive oil and beer or apple cider and brush this over the vegetable pieces. Sprinkle with kosher salt and place baking dishes on separate racks in the oven for 30 minutes.
Stir the contents of the dishes, swap racks and check after another 30 minutes. Vegetables should be tender and browned. Stir as needed and check at 15 minute intervals for doneness. Scoop into a bowl and serve hot.
Sweet potato mash (a.k.a. the deeply delicious dish that began a romance) - Pre-heat oven to 425°F, pierce sweet potatoes several times with a fork and bake until tender and can easily be pierced with a knife. Depending upon your feelings on potato skin, either scoop out the flesh into a large bowl, or cut the potatoes into chunks and place those in a large bowl.
With a masher or a large fork, work in butter (we dig yogurt butter), a pinch of salt, a few splashes of orange juice and a few drizzles of maple syrup to taste. Sprinkle in some smoked paprika if you're feeling wacky and mash to desired consistency. Fall in love as desired.
Brussels sprouts - These are fabulous sauteed with stock, wine and shallots, blanched by boiling for a minute or two, then shocked in a bowl of ice water, served in raw ribbons with a vinaigrette dressing and countless other ways.
Our go-to method, though, is to pre-heat the oven to 350°F, slice off the stem, cut them in half, place halves on a baking sheet, then brush or spray them with oil and sprinkle with a bit of kosher salt. Then they go into the center of the oven for about 10-15 minutes or until tender, but not browned. Then boom – on goes broiler, the pan goes on the top rack and those babies sizzle until the tops are browned. Keep a close eye so they don't burn up - it'll only take a minute or two. Remove from heat and gorge.
Note: the roast-then-broil method also works well for broccoli and cauliflower - just keep an extra-close eye during the second phase so the florets don't crisp away to nothing.
Collard greens - We could write an entire treatise on these (many have) and you owe it to yourself to nab a copy of The Lee Bros. Southern Cookbook, which houses our favorite method ever. Until your copy arrives, grab a smoked ham hock or about 4 oz of your favorite smoked bacon (we like hog jowl) and place that at the bottom of a heavy, lidded pot with a tablespoon of oil. Place over medium heat until some fat is rendered off. CAREFULLY add 8 cups of water (it will pop, so stand back), a tablespoon of kosher salt and a tablespoon of red pepper flakes if you like heat (less if you don't.) Bring that to a boil, then cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
In the meantime, thoroughly wash the collard leaves (or dandelion, turnip or beet greens), strip out the hard spines and stack the leaves together. Tear them into pieces, or roll up and cut into 1-inch ribbons.
When the water is ready, add the greens a handful at a time, stirring until they have wilted in, and add the next handful. Once they're all in, cover, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for one hour.
Once they're ready, scoop them out with a slotted spoon and serve with a bowl of vinegar into which a few red pepper flakes have been added. And don't you dare discard the cooking liquid; the nutrient-rich broth is called "potlikker" and it's an excellent base for soup and simply dynamite with cornbread.
Veg Out We cannot stress this enough - it's not an all-or-nothing proposition, either organic-local-heirloom or it's Hot Pockets Penitentiary for you. It's also not a competition to determine who's the very bestest foodie in all the land (and for the record, we hate that word.)
Do the best you can with the time and cash you have, and it will get easier. And hey - if you want help, we're here. Post your veggie queries or favorite winter produce tips and recipes in the comments below, and we'll do our darndest to get you through 'til springtime.
Woah! I'm really enjoying the template/theme of this website. It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's very hard to get that "perfect balance" between superb usability and visual appeal. I must say that you've done a very good job with this. Also, the blog loads super quick for me on Chrome. Excellent Blog!
great job wasting half the article on nonsense/wanna be jokes instead of the actual SUBJECT yet another cnn fail
Radishes are cheap and taste like mild turnips when roasted. Easy to grow as well!
seriously some of you people are crazy with this vegetable diet GET A GRIP. By the way i am size 2 and 5'7 and i hardly ever eat vegetables and i am perfectly healthy.
What's your number, sugar?
I love just about any veggie roasted, especially brussel sprouts. I toss them with olive oil, kosher salt and black pepper, and throw in some whole cloves of garlic (peeled). After they're done roasting, I sprinkle a bit of balsamic vinegar over the whole thing. It compliments the nutty sweetness of the roasted sprouts quite nicely.
Vegetables (and fruits and whole grains and seeds/nuts) rock! Want proof? Original, creative recipes and beautiful photography through the link below to my partner's food blog.
Vegetables are so flavorful sauteed with simple olive oil, salt and lemon juice. I like to steam brussel sprouts, then pan sear with olive oil, garlic and salt. Squeeze some lemon juice and yummm. Divine. http://www.travelbyfork.com
My favorite way to eat collard greens is sauteed in olive oil with fresh garlic and sea salt, then when they are tender add a sauce of 2 Tbsp ground whole grain mustard, 2 Tbsp cider vinegar, 1+ tsp sugar, salt & pepper...cook just long enough to cook off the vinegar. I'll add steak strips, chicken, pork, bacon (whatever I have around) and make it a meal. I could eat this every day.
I like my brussel sprouts w a little butter salt garlic n paprika greens as cnn listed n salad salad salad romaine tomatoe cucumbers mmmm
I can't get enough veggies (yes, brussels sprouts are one of my favs!). A great web site for fellow veggie (and fruit) lovers is http://www.fruitsandveggiesmorematters.org. They've got nutrition info on every fruit or veggie I can think of and some I had never heard of along with some tasty recipes.
No, but I've seen it, doesn't look too good. I think I prefer to just go with veggies on meals where I omit the meat...eggplant parm, french onion soup, the possibilities are endless so no need to substitute meat when I still eat it for other days/meals.

Not sure how Korea can have such a short final journey given where the camp is!
To be the first one to mention something other than the Americans, why are the Koreans way out by Foz do Iguacu? With all the hanky-panky going on out there, S.Korea will not be leaving the group stages and will be lucky to get a win.
And queue the American conspiracy theorists...
As if the American team needed any extra disadvantages besides being American.
"In total America will spend about 20 hours in the air, to play only 4.5 hours of football"
Hey! Is the Economist forecasting that the USA does not make it past the group stages?
No! We're just referring to the group stage of the competition. But I'm afraid that in this earlier chart we did calculate that the United States had only a 2.9% chance of eventually winning: http://www.economist.com/blogs/graphicdetail/2014/06/daily-chart

Seattle Times movie critic
Michael Radford's handsome screen version of "The Merchant of Venice" has a lovely, dusty light; its colors are soft and burnished, like a Vermeer painting, and its air seems of another world. And the faces who breathe that air have an artistry of their own: the curly, amused smile of Lynn Collins as Portia; the etched lines of Jeremy Irons' face as Antonio; the earnest, classical beauty of Joseph Fiennes as Bassanio; the weariness in the eyes of Al Pacino as Shylock. Shakespeare's language — particularly such gems as "The quality of mercy is not strain'd" and "All that glisters is not gold" — would seem embellishment enough, but Radford gives the words a setting appropriate to their glory.
He's also given this troublesome tale a bit of context. The play (classified among Shakespeare's comedies, though much of it is hardly lighthearted) has long faced charges of anti-Semitism: Shylock, the Jewish moneylender, is a greedy, vengeful character, and his ultimate comeuppance for attempting to extort a "pound of flesh" from the merchant Antonio includes a demand that he convert to Christianity. Yet it's too easy to dismiss a play this way, particularly one that includes the famous "Hath not a Jew eyes?" speech, with the line, "If you prick us, do we not bleed?"
Movie review
"William Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice," with Al Pacino, Jeremy Irons, Joseph Fiennes, Lynn Collins, Zuleikha Robinson, Kris Marshall. Written and directed by Michael Radford, based on the play by Shakespeare. 127 minutes. Rated R for some nudity. Neptune.
"Still have I borne it with a patient shrug," he says of the abuse he has received from Antonio, "for sufferance is the badge of all our tribe." And his behavior comes from an easily identified source: those who have mistreated him. "The villainy you teach me," he says, "I will execute."
Pacino's portrayal of him, minus most of the actor's usual bellow-and-swagger gusto, brings a layer of delicacy to the role. His Shylock is tired, worn down by his own grim life, and his speeches feel like he's delivered them before — you sense that he's tired of having to explain his own humanity. It's a restrained performance (well, restrained for Pacino; what's subtle for him would be scenery-chewing from a different actor), and a thoughtful one.
Elsewhere, the lovers carry out their subplot with great delicacy; particularly Collins, who's a real find (she was a late replacement for the pregnant Cate Blanchett). The wise Portia is a challenging role, but Collins finds a delightful sense of humor within her character; watch how she holds her stomach, as if ever-so-slightly nauseated, while disparaging a suitor.
And Radford gives the film — shot partly in Venice — a golden glow and a real-world grubbiness. Beauty and ugliness mingle in this play, with the beauty of language ultimately triumphing.

When Frontier took to Kickstarter to fund Elite: Dangerous in 2012, netting £1,578,316, they said folks would be able to play an offline singleplayer mode. They weren't entirely sure how it'd work, given that many of their space sim plans involved an online and interconnected galaxy, but they said it'd be in there. With Elite's official launch less than a month away, Frontier have now said that won't happen. It'll have an online singleplayer mode, as always planned, but no offline support.

The Elitist, Part Four: Spacer, Miner, Robber, Jerk
By Brendan Caldwell on November 12th, 2014.
Brendan's misadventures in deep space continue in our Elite: Dangerous diary. This week, he tries out the new features of Elite's Beta 3.0.
I was lounging in Alison City station listening to to the Lauren Laverne show when the call came in. I say "when the call came in" to give you the image of a space rat in his natural habitat, feet up on the sensor monitor, drinking spiced wine and flicking the dust off the thruster in boredom until his screen lights up with "INCOMING MESSAGE" and he dives for the comms panel. What I really mean is: "when the bulletin board lit up". The bulletin board marks all the jobs in Elite's many space stations. My eyes fell from one job to the other – dead, fed-up eyes – then faltered and stopped as they saw a plain-looking advert marked "Light cargo transports required".
I slouched closer to the screen, utilising the powerful hunch that would inevitably give me repetitive strain injury. This can't be right, I thought. 174,000 credits for one job? That's crazy. I'd be lucky to get 20,000 for a single gig. I clicked on the ad. The orders: take 18 tonnes of gold to Foucault Landing. Good lord, is that all? I instantly accepted the job and smiled an obnoxious, greedy smile. Then I looked at my mission screen. That's where I saw the catch.
I had 14 minutes to get there.
A Spaceship For Christmas – Elite: Dangerous Dated

Fear not, people who've been getting confused or offput by alphas and betas and premium betas: Elite: Dangerous is in for a full release (complete with a more affordable price) on December 16th.
Dear me from two years ago: hey, Elite 4's coming out in a few weeks. Betcha never expected that, eh?

Space Whir: Elite Dangerous Beta 3 Out, New Trailer
By Graham Smith on October 29th, 2014.
Frontier have been adamant all along that Elite: Dangerous would be in final form before the end of the year, but floating around its fun-but-feature-sparse galaxy made me think a delay was inevitable. Then beta 2 hit in September, vastly expanded the playable area and added new exploration mechanics. And now beta 3 has just arrived, bringing mining, an even larger galaxy, new ships and much more. Watching the new trailer below, suddenly it seems like this might really happen.
The Elitist, Part Three: Picking A Fight
By Brendan Caldwell on October 29th, 2014.
Brendan's misadventures in deep space continue in our Elite: Dangerous diary. This week, he gears up for some risky bounty hunting and runs into his old foes, the space police.
It was the silence that worried me. I had dropped out of warp into a pocket of space marked on my navigation chart as a 'High Intensity Combat Zone', and yet when I looked into the distance there was nothing but empty, quiet space. The only thing on my sensors was another lonely player, floating through the noiseless void, probably just as spooked as I was. It did not make sense. Where was everyone? Then we heard it. The instantly recognisable sound of trouble.
The Elitist, Part Two: The Exploratory Romp
By Brendan Caldwell on October 22nd, 2014.
Brendan continues on his journey through space in this series on Elite: Dangerous. This week, he sets out to discover strange new worlds, in search of profit and prestige.
Well, here we are. The rickety, unsanctioned outposts of the Gamma Serpentis system, where dismantled shipwrecks lie opposite a huge skull mural painted, somehow, in Zero G. I'm sitting on landing pad number 1 of the Tepper Relay outpost, brimming with fury. Not because I have been blown up in some ridiculous crash, or because I've been mugged by an intergalactic pirate king, but because I have gone all across the starways in search of glory and this — this! — is all I have to show for it. A measly, pathetic, laughable 459 credits and a parking spot in the interstellar equivalent of South Armagh.
Sigh. Sorry, I'm getting ahead of myself. It is possible to do that in the space-age era. (No, I mean you can literally get ahead of yourself, something to do with faster-than-light travel). Let me start from the beginning.
The Elitist, Part One: How To Make Money In Space
By Brendan Caldwell on October 15th, 2014.
Elite: Dangerous was recently updated with some new features. Brendan takes us on a journey through space in this new series, where he will be exploring faraway stars and getting into trouble with the space police.
My first mistake was packing my cargo hold full of stolen explosives. My second mistake was trying to fly that cargo full of explosives, at high speed and with my engines off, through a tiny opening in a giant space station. By the time I realised my trajectory was all wrong, I had already belly-flopped into the metallic surface of the station, hundreds of metres away from the gateway I had intended to speed through. I exploded on impact. Such is the fate of many pilots who try to emulate the Isinona Manoeuvre.
Elite Dangerous Beta 2 On Sep 30th, Original Elite Is Free
By Graham Smith on September 23rd, 2014.
I continue to find Elite: Dangerous's version names slightly confusing. Premium Beta 2 came out back in June, but the new update coming September 30th is called "Beta 2″. Thankfully I can overcome my confusion for the exciting feature list, which includes a reputation system, the introduction of exploration mechanics, 500 new star systems, a vaster collection of upgrade spaceship modules…. And so on. The full list is below the fold.
Elite: Dangerous Seeks Out New Exploration Features
By Graham Smith on September 8th, 2014.
Elite: Dangerous has a continuing mission: to be regularly updated with new features until it's a robust space sim. Right now the purchasable beta includes 55 star systems to visit, some trading to trade, some combat to combat, but there's a lot that's still to come. Including, hey, around 100 billion more star systems. For all that new space terrain to mean anything though, there needs to be a set of mechanics in place which make exploration fun and rewarding. Features aiming to do just have been explained in the latest newsletter, and I've picked out the salient details below.
Elitist Open World: Jameson The Pilot
By Adam Smith on September 4th, 2014.
Published by 11 Bit Studios (Anomaly, This War Of Mine) and created by 'a mysterious one-man dev team', Jameson The Pilot is Elite, except you'll be looking at the life of your spacefarer from a bird's eye view. Except the term 'bird's eye view' doesn't really make sense in space. Obviously, I'd love to see a flock of pigeons trying to guide themselves through the cosmos, or just a single vulture, but they wouldn't be the best place to hang your camera. Jameson is a top-down space sim, in which the player can take on all manner of roles, from pirate to space-bus driver. I hope that the world is at least as robustly simulated as that in the glorious Space Rangers 2. Trailer below.
Holiday Space Japes – Elite: Dangerous Smuggling Video
By Graham Smith on August 25th, 2014.
It's a bank holiday Monday in the UK, which means that the Rock, Paper, Shotgun crew is still writing news and articles about videogames, but instead of posting them here we're printing them off, feeding them directly into a shredder, and then deleting the source files. It's a cruel shame, but that's the world we live in.
Perhaps you still want some entertainment to get you through the day wherever you are, in which case here's a video of someone smuggling illegal goods into an Elite: Dangerous space station. It's nine minutes of interstellar stealth and pleasant space ship noises, with on-screen text to describe the tactics used at each stage, and it's brilliant. Space!
Gamescom 2014 Verdict: Diversity, Doom And Automatons
By RPS on August 18th, 2014.
The megabooths have been disassembled, the lanyards have been discarded and the crowds have dissipated – Gamescom has run its course for another year. RPS sent its two best Smiths to Cologne last week. Their brief was to see the games, talk to the creators and meet as many terrifying mechanical puppets as possible. They succeeded on all fronts and returned with tales of Elite: Dangerous, Pathologic, Warhammer and Dead Island, among many other delights and disappointments. Here are their thoughts on the show as a whole, along with a few highlights.
Marginally Beta Price: Elite Dangerous Standard Beta Out
By Graham Smith on July 31st, 2014.
It's been a little hard to keep track of the different ways to buy access to Elite: Dangerous, but it's a lot simpler since yesterday's launch of the Standard Beta. Players who want to start fighting and flying in the space-faring sequel immediately can now do so for £50/$75, and those willing to wait for the finished game can pay £35 to pre-order. The higher or additional costs of the Premium Beta and Lifetime Expansion Pass are no longer available.
What does that mean? Another notch along Elite Dangerous's attempts to make a space game with 400 billion star systems. I've outlined some of the notable Standard Beta patch notes below.

Chronicles the shift from delayed interventional to predictive and preventive medicine and personalised treatment approaches
The paradigm change from providing delayed reactionary medicine to predictive, preventive and personalized medicine (PPPM) is a leading global challenge in the 21st century. In order to achieve this shift in focus, it is important to facilitate communication among professionals, including clinicians, biotechnologists, computer scientists, healthcare providers, policy-makers and educators. The aim of EPMA Journal is to provide such professionals with open access to cutting edge research and expert viewpoints to help inform clinical practice and support the move towards predictive, preventive and personalized medicine.
The EPMA Journal provides insights, strategy and solutions to growing healthcare problems across the clinical spectrum, such as diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular disease, neurological disease, nutrition and sports medicine. While any one (or more) of predictive, preventive and personalized medicine can be the focus of manuscripts submitted for consideration in the journal, authors are encouraged to include reference to the current state or needs of the field in the other areas as well.
The EPMA Position Paper on the European programme "Horizon 2020" (http://www.epmajournal.com/content/5/1/6) provides a global overview of the challenges related to medical services and presents a consolidated position of PPPM professionals towards providing long-lasting strategies for scientific and technological progress in medical services and health care-related programmes.

'Mission: Impossible' Star Paula Patton Strips Down for GQ
Paula Patton is one sexy spy! The actress is the latest sexy co-star alongside Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible- Ghost Protocol.
The starlet posed and chatted with GQ magazine, and said of starring in the gritty film:
"I was doing physical stunts, feet in the mud, fingernails full of dirt, shooting and fighting for my life."Paula is known for her roles in Idlewild and Precious, and she's married to R&B hottie Robin Thicke. She said of fitting in with her Canadian in-laws, jokingly, "Canadians are a lot like us, actually, I've figured out how to blend in."
M:I hits theaters Dec. 21, and the IMDB description reads: "The IMF is shut down when it's implicated in the bombing of the Kremlin, causing Ethan Hunt and his new team to go rogue to clear their organization's name."

An 18-year-old Waihi man has appeared in Hamilton District Court this morning charged with the murder of Murray Wilkinson who was stabbed in the early hours of New Year's Day.
The arrest took place at 4.30pm yesterday as police, including dog handlers, converged on Waihi.
Judge David Ruth remanded the man in custody without plea to reappear in Tauranga District Court on Monday, and granted interim name suppression.
He was dressed in a blue boiler suit and appeared alert, regularly looking at the gallery and smiling at a woman - the pair exchanging thumbs up - who was in court supported by a friend.
Duty solicitor Mike Curran said the man did not seek bail and requested his counsel be Paul Mabey QC.
Earlier today, Waikato district crime manager Detective Inspector Chris Page said the Wilkinson family were told of the arrest last night.
As part of the ongoing investigation, Page said he would like to hear from anyone who stayed on Citrus Ave, Waihi Beach on New Year's eve.
People with information could contact the Operation Brad enquiry team at the Waihi Beach and Waihi police stations or dial 0800 OP BRAD (0800 672723). Alternatively information could be left anonymously with Crimestoppers on 0800 555-111.
The announcement of the arrest came one week to the day after the Queensland-based New Zealander was stabbed in an attack at Waihi Beach, where he was staying with his wife in a caravan outside a friend's house.
He had gone outside to check a noise at 1am.
He died two days later in Waikato Hospital from his injuries.
Page said a flurry of information and photos of New Year celebrations in the area where Wilkinson was attacked contributed to the arrest.
Page thanked the Waihi and Waihi Beach communities for their help and support.
