Almost by its very nature, "Edmund Kean" is bound to fall short. For Raymond Fitzsimons' solo play, starring Ben Kingsley, which came to the Atkinson last evening, requires of its leading actor not merely the ability to perform Shakespeare, but to transcend him.
Kingsley, whose name is joined to Kean's in bold type on the program's title page as if they were one and the same, is an accomplished actor. But while he is rarely less than entertaining in this one-man show, which comes to us following a successful London engagement, he does not command the role, the stage or the audience with the bravura called for.
As Kingsley, with numerous costume adjustments, describes the career of the great early 19th-century Shakespearean actor whose reckless boozing and womanizing led to his death at 46, he lards the account with great swatches of Shakespeare. And although his readings, except in one or two questionable instances, are interesting and sometimes compelling, they never truly soar (as, for example, John Gielgud's did in his "Ages of Man" recital), and must always lapse into what is, without the genuine Kean actually before us, a rather routine and far from stimulating account of the rise and fall of a stage star. Though Kean on stage must have been an awesome figure, which Kingsley is not, his offstage behavior followed an all-too-familiar course of a sort that has served the stage, screen and TV ad nauseam.
Fitzsimmons, in his haste to intersperse the highlights and lowlights of the career with Shakespearean soliloquies, has provided no insights into the real man. As a result, we have a rather shoddy show given moments of dignity by some fine borrowed speeches. And with all Kean's fussing and fuming with provincial managers and eventually the Drury Lane management, no time has been allowed even for a reference to Kean's American visits.
Moving from clothes rack to dressing table, and almost always clutching and pouring from bottles of brandy hauled from a large wicker hamper, Kingsley is, as I have already indicated, graceful, accomplished, and enjoyable enough for the better part of two hours (there is an intermission). But his descriptions of his home life (he was married to a steadfast woman who bore him two sons, one of whom died at age 4) and his wild carryings-on away from home, most notably his long affair with the wife of a Drury Lane board member, seem oddly impersonal.
We don't really care much about Kean off the stage, and on the stage he lacks the thrust and sorcery - in Kingsley's performance, that is - with which the true article must have transported his listeners.
Alison Sutcliffe (Mrs. Kingsley) has staged the evening buoyantly enough. Indeed, I think I enjoyed the scenes of Kean's early days when, skipping and dancing about, he was rarely called upon by provincial managers to play anything other than Harlequin. These frolicsome flights are, of course, recalled in the actor's last days as the evenings ends up in a somewhat maudlin way.
One of Kingsley's greatest deficiencies for this sort of thing is his voice, which, while expressively used, lacks the body and richness to move us on its own.
Along with the direction, the simple but atmospheric setting, the interesting lighting effects, and the clever bits of choreography (the latter by courtesy of Cleone Rive) are perfect for the occasion in their own way. All that is missing is Kean.
Would Edmund Kean have played Ben Kingsley? Somehow I doubt it - and this is the inbuilt fallibility of Kingsley's one-man show at the Brooks Atkinson Theater, Edmund Kean, written expressly for him by Raymund FitzSimons. And it is a play - not merely a card-house of characterization, or a pit of mimickry.
But mimicking comes into it. Kingsley is one of the most remarkable actors of our time - at least, our decade. I have watched his career with wonderment for years. By chance - which will soon be remedied - I have yet to see his Oscar-winning portrayal in Gandhi. I did notice recently when I was in Bombay it provoked lines around the theater that New York could scarcely envisage. A star, then.
A lovely actor. A superlative actor. But Kean? He looks like Kean, just as, I noticed from photographs he looked like Gandhi. And he does have that genius in acting that suggests there will be no more tomorrows - or tomorrows, or tomorrows - the petty pace of his range is terrific.
His Demetrius in Peter Brook's A Midsummer Night's Dream, for me, redefined a role. His Squeers in Nicholas Nickelby (not seen in the Royal Shakespeare Company's N.Y. version) was acting at the edge of existence.
From the first time he came on stage - well, OK, the 17th, it has been evident that Kingsley was an actor not just of moment but of mark. Everything he ever did, quite unaffectedly, had its own following spot of starlight.
The man was destined to be one of the few chosen classic actors of his generation. He is terrific as Kean - but Kean himself would have been better. Mind you, Kean himself would not have been messing around with such a peurile script.
The premise of the play itself is peculiar. We seem to be making some backstage visit with Kean - almost an interview. He tells us about his life and career. The situation itself is somewhat off-beat. It trembles.
There have been plays on Kean before - notably Sartre's Kean, his finest dramatic work, which has yet to be seen in New York. The late Alan Badel in London and Keith Baxter in its American premiere in Hartford, were both magnificent. Kingsley would have been just as good - at least.
But here he is locked into a very crass script. There are, at least, many quotations from Shakespeare. Indeed, compared with FitzSimons, Shakespeare undoubtedly had the best of the night.
There were concepts here in the play that were fascinating. For example, we have a speech from Othello repeated, more or less, three times.
First it is spoken by the neophyte actor, trippingly and nervously on the tongue, then it is given in full flight and unaffected authority, finally, in its third time round, it has an overblown quality of decadence.
This, subtly, Kingsley desperately searching for the words to match his image, makes the most of. And his director, Alison Sutcliffe also knowing where art comes from, encourages him magnificently.
Good decor by Martin Tilley, svelte lighting by John Watt - everything that could be done for Kingsley and Kean has been done. But nothing entirely works.
For heavens' sake I am grateful to have seen it. I am happy to have seen Kingsley try to poise his acting style between Kemble and Macready. I happen to be fond of the area.
Can you believe what Coleridge said of Kean: "Seeing him act was like seeing Shakespeare by flashes of lightning."
Kean, at least by reputation, is a tough act to follow. But there is something about Kingsley that is adorable.
When he forgets the weight of impersonation and becomes an actor simply in taunting wonderment at his success, he is absolutely lovely.
Bottom Line. Last Paragraph. Should you see Edmund Kean? Emphatically, yes. Kingsley has a style of genius.
Another answer to my very first question: "Would Edmund Kean ever have played Ben Kingsley?"
Well, if the price was right, and the booze and the girls were there, he might have done it. And there is not one time when Kingsley - cheeky, naughty and absurd - disgraces his memory.
Kingsley has the makings of a great classic actor. For his own sake I suggest he stay away from parodies. For your sake, I suggest you see him while he's hot.
There's no reason to fear that Hollywood's Oscar-night canonization has turned Ben Kingsley's head. In ''Edmund Kean,'' the one-man show Mr. Kingsley has brought to the Brooks Atkinson, this actor refuses to behave like a Star - even though his role, that of the legendary early 19th-century tragedian and scoundrel, gives him every license to do so.
Mr. Kingsley instead remains what he has been since first emerging at the Royal Shakespeare Company over a decade ago: an actor of quick intelligence and self-effacing humor who, in sharp contrast to some of his British peers, seems incapable of turning a performance into a mannered exercise in technique.
Always valuing his art more than his own ego, Mr. Kingsley also has an exceptional ability to work between the lines. No wonder he proved a consummate Pinter player in the film of ''Betrayal'': he grabbed onto the subtext with the tenacity of a mad pup, carving high drama out of silences and monosyllables. But even if a writer provides no subtext, this actor will, rather astonishingly, find his own. Though there's hardly a scene in ''Gandhi'' that presents its hero as much more than a plaster saint, Mr. Kingsley created a quirky, complex man who bled right out of that film's immaculate frames and into our consciousness.
In ''Edmund Kean,'' this actor undertakes a similar chore - and he executes it as well as anyone could. As a portrait of Kean, or as a satisfying theater piece of any kind, Raymund FitzSimons's script is perilously weak. But Mr. Kingsley turns nearly every worthwhile moment into a passionate image haunted by a character larger than the one in the text.
That the evening gathers little cumulative power is an indication of just how scattered the play is. Not only are Mr. Kingsley's juicier turns separated by dry spells of prosaic exposition but they're also distributed among a whole gallery of cameo-sized characters: toy versions of the Shakespearean roles Kean played, as well as of Kean himself. Coleridge said that watching Kean act was like ''reading Shakespeare by flashes of lightning.'' Watching Mr. Kingsley in ''Edmund Kean,'' we also see flashes of lightning - but there can be too much quiet before and after the storms.
With his flowing velvet robes, swords and scarves, the curly-maned actor looks a lot like the Kean of portraiture. His supple voice, however, is not the high-pitched screech often attributed to the star of Drury Lane, and it's hard to imagine Mr. Kingsley's Kean inducing audiences to riot or throwing his good friend Lord Byron into convulsive fits. But perhaps if Kean's full-throttle acting style were exhumed from the grave today, it would look ridiculous. What we do get is a flickering slide-show of the private Kean's attributes: his Napoleonic megalomania, his paranoia and self-pity, his self-destructive appetites for booze and whores. If this isn't quite the robustly romantic or comic Keans of the plays of Dumas and Sartre, it can pass for a rough Dickensian sketch of O'Neill's James Tyrone.
As resourcefully directed by Alison Sutcliffe, ''Edmund Kean'' unfolds in a musty, heavily draped dressing room that John Watt's inventive lighting can instantly turn into a footlit Regency stage. In the first and better act, Mr. Kingsley narrates Kean's long and embittering tutelage in the ''wilderness'' of provincial theater. Wanting only to ''interpret the heroes of Shakespeare as he himself saw them,'' Kean must instead play Harlequin in tawdry pantomimes, at starvation wages.
It's a sad spectacle. As Mr. Kingsley dons Harlequin's motley jacket and lifts a tambourine to perform a jerky jack-in-a-box's jig, his embalmed grin fully suggests the degradation the ostensibly merry role inflicts on his artistic soul. Soon he is fiddling absently with the lid of his props box, bringing tremulous guilt and grief to the bare lines that describe the death of his 4-year-old son.
There are some laughs, too. Kean ridicules the ''sculptured attitudes'' of his rival John Philip Kemble, puckishly contrasting their respective Hamlets. Once Kean belatedly takes his London throne as the self-decreed ''monarch of the English stage,'' he glories in his despotic rule. In Act II, he rejects new scripts in which the lead role is upstaged by ''too many people'' having ''too much to say.'' By then, Mr. Kingsley really does become a snarling, vainglorious matinee idol - not unlike the breed he might have encountered in Hollywood. Yet Mr. FitzSimons is less interested in integrating Kean's neuroses into a coherent characterization than in yanking Mr. Kingsley from one Shakespearean interpolation to the next. Some of the transitions are absurdly literal-minded - Kean's mistress is, ipso facto, Desdemona - and the whole device is dubious. Unlike, say, John Gielgud or Ian McKellen in their one-man Shakespeare recitations, Mr. Kingsley often must jump in and out of two-minute excerpts that begin at full emotional blast. The great soliloquies weren't designed to be performed as a medley of show-stoppers.
Under the circumstances, Mr. Kingsley can be surprisingly effective - especially with his hypnotic, crazed Richard III and a Shylock that fulfills Hazlitt's observation that Kean's range encompassed more notes of pain than of ''joy or hope or love.'' The splinters of Hamlet and Macbeth, among others, make less of an impression. The recurrent Othello, performed with variations to graph Kean's changing fortunes, ultimately pays off in a spectral, basso profundo display of inner collapse. (Though surely Mr. Kingsley was in fact born to play Iago.)
When the evening becomes tedious and confusing in Act II, that's because we can't care about Kean's own tragedies. The tale of the actor's decline into scandal, debt and alcoholism flies by with a speed and superficiality that defy even Mr. Kingsley's ability to add flesh; the absence of onstage embodiments of Kean's wife, mistress and enemies takes a harsh toll. Only at the very end do the fragments pull together: Mr. Kingsley almost miraculously remakes himself into the fever-eyed, shrunken, brandy-pickled dodderer who collapses into his death throes in mid-performance.
But even then, we feel tantalized, not satiated. After seeing ''Edmund Kean,'' we are mainly left longing to watch Mr. Kingsley play Richard or Shylock for keeps on a New York stage - in their entirety and, in all likelihood from the impressive evidence here, just as Shakespeare himself saw them.

I am gonna be there for a few days next month and was wondering how the surf is in comparison to DE and OC.
I am gonna be there for a few days next month and was wondering how the surf is in comparison to DE and OC.
Fairly different from OC/DE in my opinion, the sandbar situation being the main difference. It's kinda deep near the shore, and the sandbar setup is further out.
On a small swell, you need to get it near low tide. Overall, the wave is more mushy than steep, so you need a longboard/funshape type of board.
You should have it to yourself.
Chincoteague is a clone of Assateague except it breaks better at mid tide than the Maryland end. You will find it relatively uncrowded compared to Assateague and the locals are pretty cool there too. Not as many lazy longboarders as you will find at Assateague either. Hope you catch some swell- good luck!
toms cove?
It's best at Tom's Cove just to the left as you enter the north parking lot and the locals are cool and friendly. Go low to approx. two hrs before high tide. I've been there a dozen times. Chincoteague is a very cool, vintage island. There is one, sometimes two sandbars to choose from in distance from shore.
Good surf generally around the low tide....similar to AI
Yo Trifin,
gotta be hatin' on "lazy longboarders." Give it up dude, we're all surfers and we all are surf because we love the feeling of riding waves. We all choose to surf however we choose to surf and it's all good.
Don't be hatin' just because a longboarder sits outside and catches that set wave you were droolin' over... it all equals out and the big thing is the camaraderie and having fun.

360 Achievements More Popular Than Microsoft Imagined
Re:My awesome idea (117 comments)
It would work great for consumers-- if you play more, you get more games to play.
But it would be a terrible idea for the business. "Spent" achievement points don't show up on a company's profit reports.
Right now, Microsoft is winning on both sides of the achievements equation-- it costs very little for them to keep the Achievements system up and running, since they've already built in a tracking system, and it obviously (as they say in the article) drives both sales and rentals.
Turning Achievement points into some kind of currency wouldn't do anything but cost them money. Sure, it would give you free games, but none of the major videogame companies are in the business of giving away free games.

5 The Glory DaysBengUK | 12/06/2007 | See all BengUK's reviews (19)GT Legends brings to life the cars of the 60s & 70s. Everything from the lowly Fiat 500 to the classic Mini up to the Ford GT and Porsche 911.Now this is a petrol heads game, you can tweak many of the settings of the cars, gear ratio, suspension etc.But if your not a mad petrol head you can still have fun just leaving the cars on their default settings.The game works best with a wheel and pedals rather than keyboard or joystick. Saying that you can still play with keyboard and its still great fun so don't let that put you off.But as I said it works best with a wheel and pedals, the reason being the cars in this game are from the era before traction control, ABS etc so you have to be careful with the throttle or you will find yourself spinning off into the wall more that completing laps.If your old enough to remember the glory days of racing you will remember the titanic battles on the race track where leaders would have to fight hard to stay in the lead and a single mistake would end up in a lost place so quickly.This game captures that feeling and puts it within your grasp.Down sides?To the arcade racer player (NFS RD2) you will be frustrated with the apparent lack of speed while working your way up through the ranks but stay with it, there are beasts of cars to race at the higher levels.The graphics, while being very nice are just a little too clean and the damage engine could have been a bit better.While this game is starting to show its age, it is one of the best racing simulators out there.
4 Excellent Game but Win 7 users need to download patchCaptMalcolmKirk | 13/05/2011 | See all CaptMalcolmKirk's reviews (2)Like all Simbin simulations, this is an excellent racing simulation. In fact the front end is similar to Race 07, GTR evolution et all. Handing is a dream and graphics are very pretty. Released in 2005 means that it will run on most machines (I'm running it on my laptop). However Windows 7 users need to download a couple of patches to make it run on this system. Do not let this discourage you from buying this game -especially at this price. However best to google before you install.

The official seal of Indian Creek Village depicts a closed front gate. That's all the chic North Miami-Dade island's 33 multimillionaire residents want you to know. You're not welcome.
So it was illuminating to attend a rare gathering last Tuesday of some residents, who include auto mogul Norman Braman, financier Carl Icahn, and former Dolphins coach Don Shula. The event: a village council meeting about a proposed new levy for the town country club.
There was the stately Mary Anne Shula, Don's wife, earnestly pleading poverty. "My husband is 80 years old... He's on the back nine of his life. Don is unable to do talks and signings like he used to. If our taxes go up, he'll suffer... What gives you the right to do this?"
What was the financial hit to the Shulas, who live in a $4.14 million, 13,300-square-foot, white-columned mansion? $3,427.
"Maybe they have serious financial trouble," village attorney Stephen Helfman says. "I was frankly surprised that she was objecting."
Later in the meeting, Miami's recently ousted police chief, John Timoney, testified as an expert. Then former U.S. Sen. George Smathers's widow, Carolyn, tearfully pleaded for the long-battling country club and village council to "learn to get along." But in the end, the council approved the new tax anyway.
Don Shula's caddy-tip fund is just one unintended casualty of the shank-to-the-side of the notoriously exclusive Indian Creek Country Club. The vote will increase the amount that club members pay toward Indian Creek's ten-officer police force by nearly 30 times, from $29,819 to $842,315 annually.
The club's racist past has made it toxic. To this day, it has permitted only a handful of Jews and blacks into its ranks. As a result of the restrictive policies, it's been boycotted by the Orange Bowl Committee and former Gov. Jeb Bush.
The village, meanwhile, has been home to tough Jewish Americans such as car magnate Braman, financier Icahn, and hip-hop producer Scott Storch. Four of the five council members are Jewish.
Last Tuesday's decision was sweet payback for some villagers. But it's not over. The decision will likely be challenged in court. The "absurd" assessment will "only result in high legal fees and the real possibility of judgments borne by the village residents," club spokesperson Bruce Rubin says. He also insists that its discriminatory reputation "isn't true. The club in no way has any of those archaic policies."
Indian Creek Village was founded on the lofty ideal that rich people need not share streets with the huddled masses. In 1939, the 660-acre man-made island just south of the 123rd Street Causeway — winter haven to FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover and the Woolworth family — incorporated to evade annexation by Surfside.
From the beginning, the village and the club, a Mediterranean-style golfer's paradise built in 1930, were uneasily conjoined. The club never rushed to accept villagers into its ranks. The rift grew deeper as the village grew more Jewish and the country club's membership policies became more outdated.
For 25 years, the Orange Bowl Committee held its annual soiree at the Indian Creek club, which then allowed Jews and blacks on its grounds only as party guests. In 1986, the bowl committee buckled to pressure from county officials and found less toxic gala grounds.
In 1999, then-Indian Creek Village Mayor Leonard Miller, who was Jewish, refused to meet Bill Clinton after the president golfed at the controversial club. "It's embarrassing to live here and have to explain why I'm not a member of the club," Miller told the Miami Herald. A year later, Governor Bush didn't make the same public relations mistake: After speaking with Miller, he cancelled plans to tee off.
To join the club, candidates must be recommended by at least one current member and approved by 75 percent of the 15-man board of directors. The initiation charge is $125,000, plus $10,000 in annual dues. Though rolls are carefully guarded, New Times has learned its members include former Ambassador to Belgium Paul Cejas, tennis Hall of Famer Butch Buchholz, crooner Julio Iglesias, farming magnate and philanthropist Paul J. DiMare, auto dealer Gus Machado, and University of Miami Board of Trustees chairman Dr. Philip George. Village attorney Helfman estimates "eight or nine" residents are also members of the club, including Cejas and Icahn, one of the few Jews who have penetrated its ranks.
For decades, Helfman says, club members dominated the village council and made its rules. Like everybody else, residents paid village property taxes based on their home values. (Last year, for instance, totals ranged from $9,219 for the island's least valuable house, worth $1.7 million, to the $85,705 paid by Cejas for his 18,000-square-foot manse. The country club, with its property valued at $5.6 million, paid just less than $30,000 to the village annually.)
But by 2008, the village council was full of non-club members. At least two of the current councilmen, bank executive Javier Holtz and physician Scott Segal, applied for membership to the club but were denied.
With consultants' help, the council crafted a plan to exponentially increase the club's tax. To do it under Florida law, they had to reclassify the Indian Creek Village Police force as a "security service." Residents would save as much as $60,000 less in property taxes a year. Only four, including the Shulas, would have to pay a few thousand more.

13 Important Lessons This Year's Movies Can Learn From the Criterion Collection
Best of 2013 By Landon Palmer on December 22, 2013 | Be the First To CommentThe Criterion Collection is an ever-expanding accumulation of canonical works of cinema. Yet Criterion's selections don't only represent deliberate attempts to construct a pristine archive from cinema's past, but also force a conversation with cinema's present. These releases (and the cult of anticipation that develops around them) produces a distinctive contrast between the best of cinema history against the spoils of the current moment. And while 2013 did introduce us to some very good films (three of which made it into the Collection), the best selections of cinema's past always have a lot of instructive lessons to offer the smorgasbord of cinema's present. So here are some useful pieces of advice that we think current filmmaking should take from this year's crop of Criterion releases.
'Drinking Buddies' and Robert Altman's 'Nashville' Are Among the Best Blu-ray & DVD Releases of the Week
Features By Rob Hunter on December 3, 2013 | Be the First To CommentWelcome back to This Week In Discs! If you see something you like, click on the title to buy it from Amazon. Drinking Buddies Kate (Olivia Wilde) and Luke (Jake Johnson) are friends and co-workers at a beer brewery, and both are in relationships. She's dating Chris (Ron Livingston), and he's engaged to Jill (Anna Kendrick), but when the four get together for a weekend at Chris' cabin some lines are crossed in the realm of love and fidelity. Ignore the marketing as it's selling something (a romantic comedy) that this film is most definitely not. Director Joe Swanberg keeps the improv method used in his past "mumblecore" films, but it still manages to tell a cohesive and truly affecting story. A big reason for that is a cast of extremely talented actors with wicked good comedic timing in the lead roles. The four performers, along with a more assured Swanberg directing and editing, have crafted a story about heartbreak, temptation, and friendship. While they're all fantastic, this is Wilde's show, and she absolutely crushes it with a character that will leave you frustrated, aroused, entertained, and engaged in nearly equal measure.

Features By Caitlin Hughes on December 4, 2012 | Be the First To CommentThe Fitzgerald Family Christmas marks writer/director/star Edward Burns' return to capturing the working class milieu of his earlier work in films like indie darling The Brothers McMullen. Somewhat surprisingly, the film also marks Burns' very first foray into a making a film about the holidays. In the film, Burns plays Gerry, a grown man who still lives with his mother (Anita Gillette) on Long Island. He also lives with the burden of running his family's bar and filling in for his father (Ed Lauter), who walked out his large Irish family – a total of seven siblings – twenty years ago. When his father announces that he's dying and wants to spend his last Christmas with his family, the disparate siblings come together and debate whether or not they are ready to forgive their father for the transgressions of the past. Amidst all the family drama, Gerry also strikes up a romance with at-home nurse, Nora (Connie Britton). Here's what the very prolific Burns had to say about his inspirations for the film, the benefits of working with friends, how VOD is changing independent film, and a little rumor that he might guest star on Nashville…
Culture Warrior: 'Taxi Driver' at 35
Culture Warrior By Landon Palmer on March 29, 2011 | Comments (6)You hear the phrase "This movie could never be made today" quite often, and it's typically a thinly veiled means by which a creative team allows themselves to administer loving pats on their own backs. But in the context of at a 35th anniversary exhibition of the restoration of Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver with a justifiably disgruntled Paul Schrader in attendance, such a sentence rings profoundly and depressingly true. Like many of you, I've seen Taxi Driver many times before. For many, it's a formative moment in becoming a cinephile. But I had never until last weekend seen the film outside of a private setting. And in a public screening, on the big screen, I'm happy to say the film still has the potential to shock and profoundly affect viewers so many decades on. For me personally it was the most disturbing of any time I'd ever seen the film, and I was appropriately uncomfortable despite anticipating the film's every beat. Perhaps it was because I was sharing the film's stakes with a crowd instead of by myself or with a small group of people, or perhaps the content comes across as so much more subversive when projected onto a giant screen, or perhaps it was because the aura of a room always feels different when the creative talent involved is in attendance. For whatever reason, I found the film to be more upsetting than in any other context of viewing. But one of the most appalling moments of Taxi […]
Hank Williams Biopic Destined for Solid Soundtrack
In Development By Scott Beggs on August 11, 2009 | Comments (2)Country music's biggest star is headed for the big screen. Yes, I realize that Walk The Line came out years ago. Luckily, we'll finally have a biopic of Hank Williams, too.

Reproducing chosen <select> option with large lists
Hey guys... if say I have a <select></select> field with many many options & the users selects an option & submits the form..... now, if there was an error on the submission I am going to reload the form with the error & load all their answers into the fields....
My question is.... is there a quicker way to make their answer in the select field the selected option (<option value="blah" selected>blah</option>) other than looping through each & every field as they are output on the page to see if that was the answer they selected?
Cheers for any ideas!

Variable variables
They're a bit complicated at first, but come in handy every so often
PHP Code:
$$_POST['blah'] = 'selected="selected"';
echo '<select name="blah">';
echo '<option value="opt_1" '. $opt_1 .'>1</option>';
echo '<option value="opt_2" '. $opt_2 .'>2</option>';
echo '<option value="opt_3" '. $opt_3 .'>3</option>';
echo '</select>';

pretty nifty... very simple.
This would be susceptible to XSS if Register Globals is turned on however.
Would also generate E_NOTICE level errors (not really a worry if you're using it on your own server).
I can't find anything as simple as that, but here is another solution:
PHP Code:
$bla = isset($_POST['blah']) ? $_POST['blah'] : false;
echo '<select name="blah">';
echo '<option value="opt_1" '. $bla == 'opt_1' ? 'selected="selected"' : '' .'>1</option>';
echo '<option value="opt_2" '. $bla == 'opt_2' ? 'selected="selected"' : '' .'>2</option>';
echo '<option value="opt_3" '. $bla == 'opt_3' ? 'selected="selected"' : '' .'>3</option>';
echo '</select>';

Having PHP throw this many errors could actually be slower.
You should be looping through all the options anyway if you tore them in the database.
An alternative would be to have the selected item twice in the select box - as the first option and in the place in which it's supposed to be.
I'm not sure if this was any help, but I hope it didn't make you stupider.
Experience is something you get just after you really need it.

5 Things You Might Not Know About the Xbox One
We answer your questions about Microsoft's just launched console and hopefully educate you in the process about something you may not have known about the Xbox One.
Thief 1 and 2 did not have the greatest editor but the community was able to create great mods/levels up to this day. Will the new Thief have an editor?
Ever since Gamespot change their web layout, everything became so slow, loading page is slow, loading video is even slower, what's going on?
I just want a machine that has good games, that's why I'm sticking with my 360 and Ps3 for now!
5. It costs too much. 4. It's underpowered. 3. It is a cable box that plays video games. 2. It spies on you. 1. It sends pictures of your junk right to Bill Gates' desk so he has wanking material.
Why is GS deleting my comments pointing out the true meaning of "Joy Division"? Is GS anti-Semitic?
You mods are pocket deep in M$ aren't ya?
Microsoft bans users for expressing themselves over Skype or upload videos with any amount of swear words whether used as a positive or negative context.
This message will self destruct in as fast as whoever censored my last post sees this.
Also, screw that person you had no proper legitimate reason to delete that post. Damn commie
Xbox One doesn't
allow free speech even when on Skype with a friend, they screen your
call and ban you from Skype and you upload anything to Skydrive you will
also be banned if you use any amount of swear words.
Have fun complacent idiots who love supporting companies that companies that give you less and less till you have no rights left even outside your gaming room.
Enjoy your BUY FIRST THEN FORCED CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENTS LATER consoles.
Buy a PC. For the price of $560+Tax
you could already build yourself a system on newegg dot com that exceeds
this DRM filled flip-flopper of a console from one of America's most
notorious haters of free speech next to google.
@MrMan2000 Videos are not that bad. Some people don't have time to read articles.
I remember when I could go to the Gamespot site and actually READ the articles. Now I'm bombarded with endless videos. I can only surmise they believe their audience prefers watching / listening to reading....but not me. Since the "update" and the migration to virtually all video / zero articles I find this site almost useless.
everyone is sounding so stupid with these fanboy comments,
if you purchased one over the other, that means u prefer that particular console, and thats it,,,
end of the day, both are great, it just depends on what u feel u will have more fun with.,,,
stop trying to make your purchase justified by slaming the competing product, imagine the ps4 had no competition, or the xbox one had no comeptition, neither console would be as good..
we have two great new consoles with great games and great graphics,, just enjoy them for gods sakes,,
also, fanboys talking about superior graphics,, go buy a pc,,
Getting awfully tired of this console war bullshit. Do you people who contribute to this crap have nothing else in your lives?
Lol why am I even asking... Of course you don't.
All i see is a fat black box which is bad.Better wait for the slim version if they release it
The only thing I really want to know about the Xbox One right now is: are there going to be extension cables for the Kinect module? A lot of people need more than 10'.
Ahh..look at all the sony fanboys. Still calling it a spybox even though the kinect never has to be plugged in? Thats cute. Inferior hardware? Perhaps on paper, debatable in real life. Take ANY game and the x1 version will have better textures and brighter colors. PS4 games seem washed and and at times blurry. Not to mention PS4 COD is having framerate problems while the x1 is not. I've played the ps4 and x1 and would much rather keep playing the x1.
Does anyone else find that Maxwell Mcgee just tries too damn hard? I find him incredibly irritating to the point I want to slap his stupid face.
PSN also banned people when fondling girlfriends over playroom. Apparently the problem is widespread among PSN users. Both companies have a right to ban you for doing some obscene things. It's DOESN'T belong.
Don't let companies get away with stripping your rights of free speech. Don't let companies treat you like lambs. Spread this or any video that shares awareness to these attacks on freedom and forced contracts you sign on to after being tricked to buy it without being told what you're truly getting into.
@MadelaineDuhh @MrMan2000 My problem with the videos is they take too long. It's quicker to read the article. Unless you're slow.
@MrMan2000 I haven't even been able to watch the videos yet. The new upgrade to their site is very poorly done. I have a 2 year old computer (which every half wit web designer should aim for when designing a new web site). So Game Spot has been off my regular stops for video game info for the past 3 months. Also you cannot watch videos on a Subway, in a cafe or anywhere in public without headphones, which always sucks. I vote IGN on the goto for games.
@nparks wtf are you talking about ?what you got you kinect in the garage or something?or maybe you want it long so you can hide it some were in you sister room or you mom room and spy on them you sick fuck
@DVONvX they like to talk shit when they really dotn know shit maybe it make them feel good about them self or smart
Honestly stop living in a dream world. Digital Foundry did comparisons of all multiplats. AC4,BF4 and Cod all look better on the PS4. The Xone has its advantages but graphics and performance isn't one of them.
@Sky_Stifler Like what you have to say but its the same idea for Face Book, and I do not see people stopping that in the slightest.
@Sky_Stifler You do realize that your cell phone and anything else connected to the internet in your home can be monitored? Why do you somehow think Sony is exempt? Their security has been breached and millions of users have been comprised before. Please think before you troll.
@lee0577 I made an account for the sole purpose of liking your comment. Assuming you're referring to the idiot on the right, I was thinking the same thing through the entire video (which I could not continue visually watching due to all the ridiculous hand/arm gestures he was making). He's trying so hard to "animate" the video where absolutely no animation is necessary. Is he always like this? If so, is this website geared towards 13 year olds who need such things to hold their attention?
@sammoth You're talking about people uploading videos of themselves. I'm talking about free services like Skype chat which you use to talk to people PRIVATELY as well as Let's Play's that record ONLY THE GAME with VOICE and no video of players fornicating.
THOSE ARE TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT things. So NO THEY DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO BAN YOU OVER A SIMPLE SWEAR THAT WASN'T USED AS A NEGATIVE TOWARDS ANY PLAYERS.
NO Sammoth. No!
That type of poor complacency and want to censor people just because you're too immature when you overhear someone else saying a swear word that doesn't pertain to any individual but expressing their enjoyment in something of what took place in a game is exactly why America is going to shits.
NO I say. NO!
@10000000002 @MrMan2000 IGN is just as bad these days with video.
It really annoys me for reasons already discussed in this discussion (quicker to read which is probably one reason they do video to keep you on the site longer, easier to digest in areas where it is not appropriate to have audio blaring, and I just don't have the patience to listen people to ramble about something... it's faster to skim the article to get the important points).
Because I was interested in the article. The end. Can I get to a video games discussion without troglodytes starting console pissing matches with each other? That'd be fucking awesome.
@AM-Gamer Oh really! To me, AC4 looks better on the Xbox One. Must admit, that is from in-game screenshots comparing AC4 on PS4 to X1.
My opinion doesn't really matter to you, but suck it up, you just read it :)
@AM-Gamer Talk shit BF4 looks better on Xbox One than it dose on the PS4 not only has Dice already confirmed it but look up youtube videos of the comparisons of BF4, it has a better frame rate it has better draw distance it has better colors and it also has better textures on the Xbox One, your in denial, u can also see this comparisons on the EU game website where the X1 is the clear winner.
@AM-Gamer I've seen them, and ps4 looks sharper but also loses color and appears blurry. Digital foundry just put up a comparison of FIFA and you can instantly tell that the x1 has better colors, and once again the screenshots of the ps4 appear blurry in places where the x1 appears sharper. The ps4 is not doing native 1080p without some graphical shortcuts.
@guvnafuzz @Sky_Stifler he just want to sound like he is smart but he does not know that he really sound like fucking moron but dont tell him that probably break his heart
@PrinceOberyn I have no idea but it would appear that way. He is always like that though!
I agree that it is wrong that they would censor Skype calls in the first place, but saying that Microsoft doesn't have the right to do so is also wrong. You are apparently forgetting that Xbox Live is a subscription that you agree to pay for. Not Microsoft, you. They set the Terms of Use, and if you do not like them, well...tough shit. It is akin to a restaurant owner kicking someone out of their restaurant because they do not like the way they look or the way they behave. It may seem wrong in some instances, but the restaurant owner is fully within his or her rights to do that.
@jayjay444 not really interested in either of these consoles but i'd like to point out an ACTUAL FACT... BF4 on Xbox1 runs at 50fps 720p and on PS4 at 60fps 900p

Spending September with the 2014 Reds
Unfortunately, we won't be experiencing the dramatic month that the Reds and their fans had hoped, let alone October. Sure, the team still has 25 games left to play, mostly against NL Central rivals.

One Record Only Glitch
Hey folks,
I've got a real doozy of an SQL problem, if anybody out there can help me. This is for a business website with the standard shopping cart system and so forth, on an ASP page with a SQL Server 2005 backend. For whatever reason, after it goes through the checkout process, the two order related tables (order_info and order_details) start acting really strange. When the user goes in to view his past orders, sometimes that query will only return the very first row. What makes it even more strange, is that by hitting F5 and reloading the page, it will fix itself then break then fix itself, over and over. This only happens for the first 5 minutes or so after the user has submitted an order, after which, he doesn't have any problems.
It's using the default settings for the ADO Recordset.Open - nothing special there - and I've tried messing with different settings to get it to behave. I thought it was some kind of locking issue, but that doesn't appear to be the case (I can't say I'm aware of a case where a locking conflict would cause something to return 1 row and then halt without throwing an error). I know that its not a problem with the data in the table, both because it will sometimes work right and also because if I go and view the table data through SQL Server Query Analyser it always works, even while the web page is fritzing out.
I'm thinking there's something in the ADO Recordset or Connection, but I don't know what. I've done so much poking and prodding that I'm sure it isn't the SQL (I mean, what could go wrong with "SELECT * FROM order_details WHERE order_id = '" & order_id & "' AND is_submitted = 1") that's causing it to only return one row sometimes.
Any help?

You can replicate this?
If so, go into SQL Server Profiler and start a Trace. Run through whatever sequence of steps on your site that produces the error, and look at the Trace output to see which SQL statements are actually being run against the database.
If you can't replicate it... your world just got a lot more painful I'd start by suggesting things like:
1. Get your ASP page to write out the SQL statements it's generating. Like a Trace, you need to see what's actually being run against the database.
2. Post your code.

Sadly, I have to VPN into a specifically set network machine, and that machine doesn't have SQL Profiler installed for reasons that are beyond me. And I'm just a contractor, so it's not like they're going to be helpful... *rolls eyes*
Anyways, I think I've found the culprit, and it's something I didn't expect. The client has this include file which, when I don't include it, fixes the problem. Even if I don't run any of the functions that are in the include file. So now I get to run through this include file to check and see just what kind of insanity it's pulling that can cause such a weird error.
I'm not sure if I should just close this as resolved (since I have, essentially, found the error), or wait until I pin down the exact thing... If for no other reason than to allow somebody who comes after me with the same problem to be able to search and find my solution.

The one thing I will tell you is this, have your paperwork in order to cross the border. The border is a much more serious business than it used to be. You also might want to consider going to buy only and not bring anything with you for trading/selling. When I went with 3 other collectors, one of the guys brought a small box of card for trade, and I brought 2 sealed boxes to open for the Expo freebies. When we got to the border, we were told that our items constitiuted importing goods for financial gain, and the border guard made us go to the building to claim our goods and pay the appropriate import duty fees. The 2 guards inside laughed about it, and let us go, but did tell us that TECHNICALLY the first guard was right, they just weren't going to enforce it against a couple a guys with hockey cards....

I would go with the contrast option, myself and choose the white. If the floor was lighter like the shower tile, I would have said the chocolate vanity. Hope this helps! |
- Posted by annkathryn (My Page) on Fri, Aug 24, 12 at 1:41
I'm using Yakarta Wenge for my wall tile and a dark vanity from Decolav. The vanity is unfortunately higher than your price range (and mine!) but it was the best I could find. Is this your shower tile? This is the vanity I'm using (Decolav at Home Depot and Lowe's): |
Thank you both for your feedback. After having viewed several bathrooms on Houzz, I am nervous about using the dark floor. I wanted more of a conistensy with the wood flooring throughout the first floor. AnnKathryn, I like your choice of vanity, but it looks larger than 30". I'm going to take another look. Thanks again, both for your help. Mydreamhome, I agree with you about the contrast and was hoping the white sink or copper sink would provied that contrast, but I do tend to agree with you. |
- Posted by annkathryn (My Page) on Fri, Aug 24, 12 at 12:21
Hi zen4d the picture is probably of a 36" vanity, but they come in 24" and 30" as well. Also a friend of mine bought a similar vanity on amazon.com, you might look there if you haven't already (unlikely source, I know...) |
I would worry about the dark floor being slightly off the color of a dark vanity. Depending on whether there's any gray cast to the shower tile, the greige Martha Stewart Seal Harbor vanity might work. Have you seen it? It's 30", but may be too cottage-y for your look. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Seal Harbor Vanity
AnnKathryn, I wasn't able to find your Decolov vanity. By any chance, do you have a model name? KMCG, I have seen that vanity and I like it but didn't think it would work. I'll give another look. I exchanged the floor tile today. I thought I would use the Yakarta Floor in the color pictured above, but the Blanco has grey tones and it didn't work. Instead I went for a light gray tile - after much agony. I am thinking about getting this vanity American Standard Casada 30" but it doesn't come with a top or faucet so it's beginning to run a little high - along with everything else. |
Here is a picture of the new floor tile. It's the lighter grey tile in center and the Yarkarta is upright, just behind the grey tile. The wood floor sample is just a sample of the floor of the hall that the bathroom opens up to. The grey tile has just a speck of rust in it. |
I like that combination much better! The large format gray tile is nice and neutral, and it lets the shower tile really stand out. |
- Posted by annkathryn (My Page) on Fri, Aug 24, 12 at 17:41
The vanity is Decolav Cameron. I hope the link below works for you. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Vanity at Lowe's
I bought the Martha Stewart Seal Harbor vanity kmcg suggested. Please offer opinions on the combination with my new floor choice. I wanted the casada but total cost for that would have been $1000 vs. 300 for M.Stewart. Martha stewarat had a nice sink and also nice drawer set up, sturdy too. What do you all think of the new combo? |
Well, I like it :) I assume you had the gray tile with you and were able to compare it to the vanity. From the photos, I think it would look great, and it's a pretty neat vanity for the price. I love that Sharkey Grey color. |

The year was 1957, the month September, and I had just turned eight years old. Dwight Eisenhower was President, but in my life it was the diminutive, intense Sister Mary Lurana who ruled, at least in the third-grade class where I was held captive. For reasons you will soon understand, my parents had remanded me to the penal institution of St. Brigid's School in Westbury, New York, a cruel and unusual punishment if there ever was one.

An EMT. A volunteer. A spectator in a cowboy hat.
Moments after bombs exploded at the Boston Marathon, these three helped rescue a man whose legs were blown off, a scene captured in an Associated Press photo. That man, Jeff Bauman, was lauded as a hero himself when he gave authorities a description that helped them track down two suspects.
A year later, the AP revisited the lives of the four people in the image.
Mitchell has been a Boston EMT for five years. Like the others in the photo, he refuses to take credit for saving Bauman's life.
"I think a lot of things went into Jeff being alive today, not to mention the will of this guy. I met him once or twice. He's got the attitude. The positive spirit."
Looking at the photo reminds him to "live life to the fullest."
"Two of those people in that picture, not me, don't have any training, don't have any obligation to run in there — and they did."
Wang is an aspiring athletic trainer, a senior at Boston University and a world-class synchronized skater. That day she was a race volunteer.
"I think instinct kicked in, knowing that there were spectators in that general area, not knowing if there's going to be another explosion, not knowing what I was going to see once I got there," Wang told ESPN. "I felt like I did not do as much as so many other people, yet I was getting all the credit for being that hero."
In his native Costa Rica, Arredondo was a rodeo clown, helping get fallen riders out of the way of angry bulls.
"Years of doing that kind of adrenaline, you're rushing in and out, running up and out to get people out of there. ... In a way I was training myself for the Boston Marathon."
He was passing out American flags on the race sidelines and ran to Bauman after the blasts.
"I thought, 'How am I going to get him out of here?'"
"And then I saw this miracle woman coming with a wheelchair," Arredondo recalled. "And it saved his life."
Bauman, who wrote a book about his experience, says he has mixed feelings about the photo.
"I never look at it. I can't. I Googled myself once, and I looked at it and I was like, I can't look at that. That just brings me right back to me laying on the ground."
But Bauman says it sums up the good that happened that day.
"I thought that was amazing that they helped save my life like that. ... Everyone was just trying to help me, help us, you know. Help the people that were hurt."

Eva Longoria Parker as Gabrielle Solis There may be no female TV character as complex as Desperate Housewives' Gaby Solis. The manipulation, the affair with the gardener, the murder, the tortured mother. Somehow she's still with Carlos, demonstrating that sometimes sexiness comes from the most unexpected place: commitment. Top 10 Best TV Husbands
Angela Bassett Remember How Stella Got Her Groove Back and Waiting to Exhale? This woman will not be defeated. Her sensual, savvy roles have earned her nominations for the Emmy, Oscar and Golden Globe and a film gross of over $750 million. We're convinced: strong women come out on top.
Kelly Kapowski Yep, Tiffani Amber Thiessen was the quintessential '90s girl next door, and Saved by the Bell set the precedent for "platonic" high school friendships with a super-secret crush. While the Jessie Spanos and Lisa Turtles of the world were whining about school stress and boys, Kelly Kapowski was breaking hearts with that innocent face—not to mention what Tiff went on to do at Melrose.
Wendy and Cindy Lubbock Who could forget the Lubbock Babes from Growing Pains' spinoff Just the Ten of Us? Cindy and Wendy were the redheaded/blonde duo, the troublemaker twins who coined "Hieeee" as one of the best words to pick up boys.
