If you've seen the trailer for Alex Ross Perry's Listen, Up Philip — or really any of his films, including Impolex and The Color Wheel — you may wonder aloud, to friends, if he's an asshole. Many of his characters are miserable egoists — like the self-absorbed novelist Philip, played by Jason Schwartzman — and it would surprise no one to find a one-to-one correlation between the roles he writes and his own personality. This is not even to mention that Perry routinely cites the egographomaniacal Philip Roth as an inspiration. One might consider, too, that given the critical praise his new film has already received from critics like Richard Brody (at The New Yorker) and Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (at Mubi), Perry has all the more reason to be a prick. … Read More

Flavorwire's Guide to Indie Flicks to See in October
It's an odd time of year at the cinema — with fall studio movies rolling out and Oscar Season™ in full swing, the multiplex is presumably filled with the kind of smart, adult-minded fare we usually head to the art-house to see. But don't be fooled; there's bound to be some wolves in sheep's clothing out there, and the indies have got you covered this month just in case, with the help of several sharp documentaries, terrific new movies from the likes of Lynn Shelton, Gregg Araki, and Alex Ross Perry, and the smartest social satire in many a moon. Here are the indie movies you can't miss this month. … Read More

How 'The One I Love's' Twisting Narrative Addresses Serial Monogamy
*Spoiler alert: This whole article is about the twists critics were asked not to talk about before the film was released. Proceed very carefully, knowing full well that if you haven't seen The One I Love, you're fucking yourself over.*
As Jason Bailey recently wrote, the final "twists" of The One I Love aren't that twisty compared to its first major twist, which itself wouldn't have been particularly twisty if the film had been marketed less opaquely. Aptly (and unavoidably) likened to Charlie-Kaufman-lite, The One I Love takes a fundamental but abstract element of human relationships and removes it from the realm of the abstract. What if the ideals we project onto the people we love (or are ceasing to love because they don't match said ideals) actually coalesced to form entirely different people? This is the fundamental question of the film, at least until it begins branching off into another, more convoluted, pseudo-twisty (yet more interesting?) question towards its end. … Read More
'The One I Love's' Big, Secret Plot Twist Is About the Marketing, Not the Movie
When the screening invite for Charlie McDowell's new film The One I Love landed in my inbox, an odd disclaimer caught my eye. "Please note that no one will be admitted to screenings of The One I Love once the film has begun," it went. "We kindly request that you abstain from plot spoilers in your coverage and on social media." This has been the movie's big bullet point since it premiered at Sundance, spotlighted in the pull quotes of its trailer — there is a big twist, so overarching that when co-star Elisabeth Moss appeared on The Daily Show to promote it, she told Jon Stewart that said twist "basically means that I can't tell you anything about the movie." But once you see the movie, all of the coy pre-release hand-wringing doesn't make a helluva lot of sense. It's not a film that somehow hinges on explosive surprises; the fact that it's being marketed as such is less a protective measure for the picture's delicate fabric, and more an uninspired marketing hook. … Read More
I Love Elisabeth Moss — But I Don't Want to See Her Star in 'True Detective' Season 2
This is not a post about how Elisabeth Moss won't do an amazing job on True Detective. We know she will: Moss is a veteran of obsessively recapped, Emmy-magnet Prestige TV, and the woman behind two of its most memorable roles. Whoever Moss is potentially playing in the second season of HBO's anthology series — according to The Wrap, it's "a tough, no-nonsense Monterey sheriff" struggling with gambling and alcohol abuse — her character will doubtless join Mad Men's Peggy Olson and Top of the Lake's Robin Griffin on the all-too-short list of well-written female characters on "serious" shows. (The label of "serious" often keeps Olivia Pope and company out of the critical picture, but that's a conversation for another day.) So why was my gut feeling about the Moss rumor ambivalence, if not outright disappointment? … Read More

Dakine's Navigator Glove is an easy option for colder weather with its wool lining, durable water repellent leather, and DWR treatment.
- CampSaver.com
Backcountry madman Sean Pettit is arguably one of the most progressive guys on skis today, so it's understandable that Dakine is offering the Sean Pettit Navigator glove. It's based off of the work glove-inspired Navigator, and it gets a look dreamed up by Sean himself. The full leather palm is mated to a shell built from leather and softshell, for the durability and dexterity that you need. The only insulation comes in the form of the fixed wool liner, which makes this an ideal spring glove, or an all-season glove for those that run hot. They're built tough for back-to-back hundred day seasons. In other words, they're reliable, exactly like they should be.

The Dakine Men's Navigator Glove was created for those of us who hate feeling like we're wearing boxing gloves on the mountain.

Nylon reinforcements and leather palms increase the Navigator's lifespan by shunning wear and tear. Pre-curved finger construction aids in pole grippage, and the hook-and-loop wrist closure adjusts easily for a dialed fit.

From the soft, reclined driver's seat, you notice nothing of the distant 90-degree V-6's uneven firing interval (it lacks split crankpins), only how superbly mellow it is. Like all Bosch K-Jetronic fuel-injected cars, the De Lorean is a delight to drive smoothly, and the five-speed manual transmission's shift action is surprisingly precise. The steering is modern-car quick and lacks power assist -- unnecessary in a 2800-pound car with little more than a third of its weight up front. Not much feedback comes through the wheel, but the Lotus backbone's meager torsional rigidity allows the steering column -- and the rest of the interior -- to rattle around over bumps.
The interior of Christopher Kiss's 14,500-mile 1981 De Lorean is finished in the optional gray, which relieves much of the claustrophobia that bothered original road testers. Compared with modern cars and their high sills, visibility from inside the De Lorean is surprisingly good. Airflow through the tiny side windows? Not so much.
We had to restrain ourselves from asking if the paint was original, because, as we know, the De Lorean isn't painted. Kiss gives his car an annual once-over with Ajax, just like he's cleaning his kitchen sink -- touch-ups are done with a scouring pad. And we were careful not to fondle his car too much during the photo shoot -- if you think your stainless-steel fridge is hard to keep free of fingerprints, imagine a whole car in sunlight.
We couldn't, of course, stop ourselves from trying to hit 88 mph. Dense traffic and the laid-back V-6 conspired against us, but in retrospect, hitting that speed -- and inducing time travel -- was unnecessary. Now that the De Lorean itself is as old as the 1950s cruisers in Back to the Future were, we already know that John De Lorean's creation lived up to one of its main goals: being truly timeless.

Incidence of Gastrointestinal Symptoms in Children With Autism: A Population-Based
Pediatrics, Ibrahim, Voigt, Katusic, Weaver, and Barbaresi
Year Published:
The Mayo Clinic study finds that autistic kids in the study were more likely than their nonautistic counterparts to be picky eaters or constipated. But the researchers did not find a significant difference between the two groups when it came to diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, bloating, reflux or vomiting.
According to Pediatrics, "as constipation and feeding issues/food selectivity often have a behavioral etiology, data suggest that a neurobehavioral rather than a primary organic gastrointestinal etiology may account for the higher incidence of these gastrointestinal symptoms in children with autism."
For years, parents, physicians and researchers have wondered whether people with autism suffered from more digestive problems than the rest of the population. Many autistic children are following aggressive medical regimens aimed at treating suspected gut trouble, including multiple nutritional supplements, and anti-fungal, anti viral and antibiotics medications. Some also are on a restrictive diet.

City officials anticipate that Larkridge will generate around $8.5 million in sales-tax revenue in its first year of operation. Much of that will be funneled to the urban-renewal district that the city created in order to upgrade the vast infrastructure improvements that the development will necessitate, but Busck is still giddy about the revenue possibilities that the mall will create. He's much more wary of growth to the north, especially in the fast-growing towns of Dacono, Firestone and Frederick, and has been an outspoken critic of large-lot, semi-rural ranchettes in Adams and Weld counties. "These folks are going to be coming into my city one way or another," says Busck, who's also a boardmember on the Denver Regional Council of Governments. "And they're coming in now, and a lot of them aren't even counted in the metropolitan district."
But as long as they come with cash -- and leave when they're done shopping -- he can live with it.
In Northglenn, the earliest of the mall pioneers, officials recognize that the continued growth will have its effect -- particularly since landlocked Northglenn is missing out on the northern I-25 boom. With the opening of Larkridge, the city is preparing for a 10 percent drop in sales-tax revenue at the Marketplace at Northglenn. But that's not much of a concern to Perlmutter, which recently put the Marketplace up for sale, with a reported top bid of $87 million.
The company wants to focus on bigger and better properties. The future, after all, is just one zoning change away.

Jones arrived at Mile High just in time to help with the point-in-time study, an annual count of the metro area's homeless that this year put the count -- once all those layers were added in -- at around 10,000. While she was at the Brandon Center, a local shelter, one woman asked if she was homeless. "I said no, but I know how lucky I am," Jones says. She'd been downsized, then was out of a job for a year, and without a family to rely on, she could have been one of those people speaking before council Monday night. "A lot of people in that situation don't have anyone who can help them out," she says.
Except us.
You Must Memorialize This
The living are not the only ones competing with Katrina's victims. As each disaster hits -- 9/11, the tsunami, now the hurricanes -- plans for the Columbine Memorial are scaled back. Initially, the Foothills Park and Recreation District hoped to have a monument in place in Clement Park by mid-2001, less than two years after the worst school shooting in this country's history. But the families of the victims asked the district to put the project on hold while another memorial -- the creation of an atrium where the school's library had been -- was completed.
So it wasn't until April 2003 that the 28-member Columbine Memorial Committee came up with a design -- a reflective monument in a grove of trees -- that worked for everyone. After 9/11, though, fundraising had lagged, and although former president Bill Clinton delivered on his promise to help, the project was still far short of its $3 million goal -- and nowhere close to being completed by April 20, 2004, the fifth anniversary of the shootings.
Then, after the sixth anniversary came and went without a memorial, the committee "took a look at it from both the fundraising side and the cost estimate side," explains Bob Easton, director of the Foothills district. "Through a meeting held with the families, we reduced the construction cost from $2.5 million to $1.5 million." Expensive staircases to the top of the hill were eliminated, as was a substantial water feature, but "we essentially preserved the core area, the ring of remembrance," he says. That's where writings chosen by the families and dedicated to the victims will be inscribed.
The committee has about a million of the $1.5 million needed for this scaled-back version -- a third in cash and pledges, a third in in-kind service donations, and $330,000 from the Hope Fund that financed the library-rebuilding effort. Right after Labor Day, it planned to announce a new campaign to raise the rest of the money, reaching out nationwide for 25,000 donations of $20 each.
And then Katrina hit.
"It's certainly created challenges for us," Easton admits. The committee decided to postpone announcing its new fundraising effort (donations can be made at www.columbinememorial.org) and spring groundbreaking goal until mid-October, "and then hopefully we'll be off and on our way," Easton says. "We're about $500,000 short, but back in May we were about $1.5 million short."
And if another disaster should strike? "Even if we're not successful with the additional $500,000, the intent is to move forward with the million dollars that we do have," he replies, "although we'd certainly like to implement the full plan."
But you know what they say about the best-laid plans...

Hi everyone! I am trying to remodel a 1950s-era, galley-style kitchen.
My hope is to make it more contemporary, more in sync with our busy family lifestyle. The catch: my husband and I are doing EVERYTHING by ourselves. Refacing the cabinets, laying hardwood floors, opening walls... I need design ideas from you savvy home remodelers! I started a blog to document our remodel here: http://fiftieskitchenredo.blogspot.com/ Any ideas/thoughts/suggestions are super welcome. Thanks!! |

Why contemporary? Mid century kitchens were all about making things easier for the modern home-maker, and did it with futuristic style. Below is a link to a site with lots of pics for period rooms and kitchens. Mid-century is IN right now, so I'd try to stick close to the style of that era and increase resale value. :) Anyone can have granite and stainless if they have deep enough pockets...but I guarantee that in a few years, that will be out and some new fad will take its place. |

Hi Everyone, I'm new to this forum, and I need some advice/perspective on my situation. Thanks! A week ago today, I had Sileston Lagoon quartz countertops installed. I chose to go to a certain business on the recommendation of my contractor. I trusted his opinion, since he's seen many a countertop in his time.I visited the showroom, gave a rough estimate of the size of my "U' shaped kitchen, which came out to be about 40 sq. ft. I was told that because of the size of my kitchen counters, they might have to use 2 slabs instead of one, doubling my cost. They mentioned that Silestone had jumbo slabs in certain patterns, and one was "Lagoon". They "played" with possible configurations on the computer to see what could work, seemingly trying to place any seams in an inconspicuous place. A configuration was never actually finalized. I said would I think about it, and let them know. I had ordered a sample of Silestone Lagoon so I could test the durability and stain resistance before I made my final decision. After my testing, I returned to the showroom, and confirmed that I wanted the Lagoon. They sent out someone to template with a laser and take pictures of my kitchen earlier in the week, and they gave me a quote based on 41.5 sq.ft. on a jumbo slab. On this estimate it read on the bottom, "Estimate only. Need actual drawing to quote. Will review after template." I never got to review anything further. I never saw a final drawing. This is what I signed. A week or two later, I called to see what the status of the countertop installation was since I hadn't heard anything, and they said they had me scheduled for a week from that day for installation. In retrospect, I should have asked what happened to the final quote, and drawing. Anyway, the crew was scheduled to come between 1pm and 3pm. I had hired my contractor for some other things to do around my house that day and wanted him to be on hand for the installation. The crew finally arrived at 5pm. My contractor was long gone by then. I left them alone to do the job, since it was already so late, and I was already perturbed that no one called to tell me they were running so late. When they were finally done, around 7:15pm, I entered my kitchen, and there, right in front of me, in the middle of the "U", is a seam! A very evident seam. The seam itself didn't look good to me either. They tried to make one "chip" in the seam look less obvious, but in general, that didn't make me particularly pleased. Meanwhile, I've smelled too much construction adhesive and am stressed, and sign off on it, reluctantly giving them a check, the last half of what we owe. (I asked if I could pay by credit card tomorrow instead, and they said there would be a 4% surcharge.) My husband comes home and is not happy. He doesn't like where the seam is or how it looks. We put a stop payment on the check. We call, send emails the next day to the showroom. No real response.The next day, Saturday, my husband and I decide to pay a surprise visit to the place and talk to the owner. He says he will send a crew over to try to correct the seam. We ask the question as to why the seam was placed there in the first place, and he says it might have had something to do with the "pattern" in the Lagoon. (There may be a "flow" to the Lagoon, but I see no detectable pattern.) He assures us this will be resolved by Friday. Monday no one calls me. Tuesday someone tries to set me up with an appointment for Friday, and I told them the owner told me it would be resolved by Friday, how about Thursday? She makes it for this afternoon (Thurs.) between 1 and 3pm. I just now get a call, at 2pm, that the crew has gotten tied up and cant get here today, could they come tomorrow at 9:30am? Unreal. (I have attached a pic of the seam in the kitchen.) I mentioned as to why I could not have had just one seam at the sink, and was told that it would have been heavy and hard to maneuver. Really?? My kitchen is all open on one side. Thanks for being patient and reading my saga. Am I being unreasonable to expect better service for $4,000? How does this seam look to you??? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Momdr1010, I am just a mostly lurker, lay person on GW, so I do not feel that I can speak to the quality of the seam. However, it does seem the color they used to join the slabs is too white, if you will. I am so sorry the seam was put in a place that you did not officially approve. I had Silestone installed in December and at templating I specified exactly where I wanted the seam. If I'm not happy, it's my fault. Fortunately it worked out well. I hope you will get some attention and support as you work toward an acceptable solution. So sorry...commiserating with you. By the way, the countertop is lovely... |

momdr1010: Your seam appears to comply with most manufacturer's specifications. Place a 4' straightedge over the seam and see if it rocks or if there are gaps below it. A picture of the inside corner radii would be helpful too. If you sketch your layout with dimensions, I could review your seam placement. |

Sum5463, Thank you for your response and kind words, I appreciate it. We shall see if they can do some "smoke and mirrors" tomorrow when they try to fix it. We shall see! |
- Posted by hollysprings (My Page) on Thu, Jun 19, 14 at 22:53
Looks 90%. Tweaking the color slightly should get it the rest of the way. |
Thanks, hollysprings, and Treruchet, I appreciate your input. Thanks for offering to go through seam placement, but I am going to wait and see what happens with the "fix" they are currently doing on the seam. If it is not to our liking it may be that we will have to go back to the drawing board with owner. |
Hi Everyone, Here's a picture of the "fix". It's better, but for $4000.00, the seam needs to be in the correct place to begin with, in our book. Since we never saw where it was to be placed during this process, I think we have a right to do this over correctly. Any thoughts??? |
- Posted by may_flowers (My Page) on Fri, Jun 20, 14 at 11:43
It seems strange that they would put the seam in the most obvious place. Were they unable to put it near a corner because the slab wasn't large enough? Trebuchet asked to see your layout with dimensions, so we'd want to know what other choices they had. I don't know if they can recut one slab back to a corner and buy a new slab and do a better seam. They need to be able to cut a clean edge and use the device I mentioned in your other thread to pull the slabs tightly together. Color-matching of the epoxy isn't really the issue. Unless they feel responsible for making a poor choice for seam placement, chances are they won't do anything since the seam looks okay--hard to tell from the photo though. Is it still visible 8 feet away? A quartz seam should only be the width of a razor blade. |
Be prepared for them to tell you that you will need a second slab based on your seam request, and you would be responsible to pay the difference if that is the case " but for $4000.00, the seam needs to be in the correct place to begin with, in our book." How do you come to that conclusion? If the yield is such that you need the second slab to get the seam in the "correct" place this top is going to be $6000 If you did tell them that you would need to sign off on seam location before production and they ignored that request..then yes I would agree that you have a complaint, but I think that the only thing they would offer was to remake the top but you buy the added slab and they would provide a new slab to replace the original |
- Posted by sjhockeyfan (My Page) on Fri, Jun 20, 14 at 12:44
I think you're going to get absolutely nowhere with your request, and do not have a legal leg to stand on. Even if you did tell them you needed to sign off on seam location before installation, so what - you didn't have to let them in your house for the install, but you did. Sorry to be harsh, but unless you have a contract where it says where the seam will be, or a template you signed off on that they didn't follow, I think you're out of luck on seam placement. |
- Posted by Swentastic (My Page) on Fri, Jun 20, 14 at 13:14
Yeah I don't think you're going to get much out of them - best bet is to keep tweaking the color until it matches. Beware, you'll probably have to replace that filler eventually - in my experience it turns yellow. Either way, you have a beautiful counter top! Don't let it get you down - nobody will notice the seam once the rest of the kitchen is done. Good luck! |
- Posted by Trebruchet (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Fri, Jun 20, 14 at 14:45
momdr1010: Sorry, but I liked the "before" picture especially on the edge. It looks like they've jammed some contamination in there or created a void. I'd hit that with some #40 hydrogen peroxide. |
Thanks, everyone for your comments. I will consider it all!The only thing I signed was a quote based on one Jumbo slab, and it was an "Estimate Only. Need Actual drawing to quote. Will review after template." I paid half of the estimate, and never heard from them again until they gave me my install date. During the signing, we had discussed the positioning of the seam(s) and that it/they would be put in the most inconspicuous place possible....never saw the final drawing. I guess, it was our mistake to trust that they would call us, if there was an issue, like pulling out another slab, if the seam needed to be in a more inconspicuous area. We never got that opportunity to make that decision, or if there were other issues in installation. Their templater had taken numerous pics of the house, etc. to show any problems that might lurk to make the installation difficult. Also, I trusted my contractor''s recommendation on these people, so I was more confident that they would do a good job. He was surprised when he saw where, and how they did the seam. I posted my "saga", in part, so that others could learn from my naivete. There are many places where this process can go very wrong. Thanks again, everyone who responded. I'll keep you posted!! |
Do you think you even got the jumbo slab you paid for? I don't know if you have any options after accepting it, but I certainly don't think that business did the right thing. You were treated shabbily, whether it was intentionally sleazy or just a mistake. Maybe it was a clerical error on their part but if they don't fix it, I would not be at all shy with sharing my opinion online and anywhere else. |
fori, Thanks. I think I probably did get the slab that I paid for, but I do believe I wasn't treated right at all. Part of that was they didn't follow through with the process. After we spoke with the owner last week, I got the feeling he was going to work with us to make it right somehow. Now, after my husband just him called today, he's conveniently on vacation, and we ended up talking to the second in charge. Not at all happy with this outcome. Their professionalism leaves a lot to be desired, that is for sure. There should be a process in place, and the steps were not followed. I will be online with MHO very shortly, believe me. Thanks, again. |
re the seam placement, it is possible that they thought it was the best place for it to be. as an explanation, my fabricator came to template and showed me his 3 seam options. i thought in the corner was the best but he pointed out that the corner or near the dishwasher was my prep zone and not what he recs. he recd it being toward the end of the sink run, far away from the sink. his reasoning was it was where the coffee pot/toaster etc would be and the seam would blend with the counter clutter. at first it seemed so crazy obvious and now after 2 months, i don't notice it at all. granted you didn't have this discussion with your fabricator but maybe he was doing what he thought was best? |
- Posted by may_flowers (My Page) on Fri, Jun 20, 14 at 17:45
For that color of quartz, the seam should not be visible enough that it even mattered where the seam was. If it were a hair's width like mine is, I'm sure you'd accept the seam in the center of the U and be more forgiving of its poor placement. So why couldn't they do a tighter seam? |
- Posted by Trebruchet (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Fri, Jun 20, 14 at 19:14
"So why couldn't they do a tighter seam?" may_flowers: Because here you're looking at saw-cut edges butted to make a seam instead of CNC or Seamphantom edges butted to make a seam. |
- Posted by Trebruchet (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Fri, Jun 20, 14 at 20:47
I was called to reinstall this quartz countertop. When I butted the pieces together, this is what resulted. Not quite up to my standards. This is why the pieces won't butt. They've been cut with a drifting saw blade instead of a CNC machine, nor have they been run on a Seamphantom. When the pieces are laid level, the bottom of the seam touches before the top as you see in the first picture. Fortunately, I was able to relieve the bevel freehand with a grinder and got the above seam out of the deal. |
Great job, Trebuchet! Thanks everyone. My husband contacted the owner today, and lo and behold he's on vacation! Surprise, surprise. So he had to talk to #2 in charge, who was the guy I originally talked to when I signed the estimate. They gave my husband many excuses as to why the seam had to go there....mainly that the countertop is heavy and it would not have been possible to maneuver it over the half wall with the moulding that sticks out an inch, or some such nonsense.. I could have had that moulding easily removed, if they had taken the time to call and ask me, He never said why they did a poor job on the seam in the first place. I think you guys are awesome, and many of you were "right on" with the end result. I've learned a lot. Hopefully, my backsplash will outshine the seam and make it less of an eye sore. Put a fork in it, ladies and gents, 'cause I am done! |

Thanks for the story and sorry about all of the aggrivation! But your experience definitely will be in the back of my head when we do our template :) |
- Posted by greenhaven (My Page) on Sat, Jun 21, 14 at 7:27
I hope you will learn to love it! I do not know much about proper seaming technique, but I did do a lot of reading before I had my quartz countertops templated and installed. It made it very easy to know they were doing a good job, and gave me the confidence to say "Hey, is this right?" about a surface imperfection that they quickly and easily filled. It is always useful to someone when we post our experiences good and bad, thanks for being forthcoming and sharing. Knowledge is power! |
Thank you everyone. Think I will have to learn to love it. :) green haven, sounds like you really did your homework! Had the crew arrived on time my contractor would have been here to oversee the process. In the past I have had Corian....the seam was truly invisible. I knew quartz might be somewhat different, but not that different! Guess I should have done my due diligence and really done more investigation like you did! |
- Posted by Jackie54016 (My Page) on Fri, Jun 27, 14 at 19:29
So sorry you have been put through this ordeal. On a related note, I am having Cambria Torquay installed in my kitchen in a couple of weeks and they will be laser measuring in the next couple of days. They have already notified me that based on the slab being 119 inches and my countertop running 147 inches, and to the angle of the counter where the L shape angles out at 125 inches, they will have to put a straight seam somewhere. Sad there needs to be a seam at all, but grateful they gave me a heads up. Now just not sure which side I want it on. Photo is showing my old laminate. |

Frankenstein (Dover Thrift Editions)by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Staff Pick Written by an anonymous19-year-old, rejected by two publishers, and finally given a printing of only 500 copies, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein would go on to become one of the most influential novels in the science-fiction and horror genres. But Shelley's work is much more than a Gothic tale of terror; it's a classic piece of literature that raised many disturbing questions about humankind that are just as relevant today as when they were written. On October 31, 1831, Shelley published a revised edition that has become the more widely read version, not because of its textural superiority, but for its availability. In fact, it has been argued that the original text, with its darker undertones, may be the most definitive work. Whichever version you read, Frankenstein is a masterpiece! Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Few creatures of horror have seized readers' imaginations and held them for so long as the anguished monster of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. The story of Victor Frankenstein's terrible creation and the havoc it caused has enthralled generations of readers and inspired countless writers of horror and suspense. Considering the novel's enduring success, it is remarkable that it began merely as a whim of Lord Byron's. "We will each write a story," Byron announced to his next-door neighbors, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin and her lover Percy Bysshe Shelley. The friends were summering on the shores of Lake Geneva in Switzerland in 1816, Shelley still unknown as a poet and Byron writing the third canto of Childe Harold. When continued rains kept them confined indoors, all agreed to Byron's proposal. The illustrious poets failed to complete their ghost stories, but Mary Shelley rose supremely to the challenge. With Frankenstein, she succeeded admirably in the task she set for herself: to create a story that, in her own words, "would speak to the mysterious fears of our nature and awaken thrilling horror — one to make the reader dread to look round, to curdle the blood, and quicken the beatings of the heart." Synopsis:The story of Victor Frankenstein's monstrous creation and the havoc it caused has enthralled generations of readers and inspired countless writers of horror and suspense. With the author's own 1831 introduction. Synopsis:At this challenge, Mary Shelley began work on the 'ghost story' that was to evolve into the most celebrated horror novel in literary history. Frankenstein was published the next year and become the rage of London. In the generations since, the story of Victor Frankenstein and the monster he created has been read by millions all over the world. It has inspired hundreds of imitations, but it has never been equaled for its masterful manipulation of the elements of horror and suspense.

Lakshmi Manchu who debuts in Hindi films says the only time she spoke Hindi was to get an auto while bunking college.
Lakshmi Manchu is a popular name in Telugu films and is making her foray into Bollywood with Ram Gopal Varma's Department. Ramu was so impressed by Lakshmi Manchu's performance as a witch in the Telugu film ' Anaganaga O Dheerudu' that he roped in the versatile actress to play the leading lady opposite Sanjay Dutt in his forthcoming Hindi film Department. Department also stars Amitabh Bachchan as a politician and Rana Daggubati.
Lakshmi plays the role of a conventional housewife but it's more unique than ever before. Lakshmi is working with Ramu for the second time, the first one being a Telugu movie Dongala Muthu. "Ramu is truly inspiring to work with him. When Ramu asked me, I had the dates available and I jumped into it", says Lakshmi.

Officer woman files claim over police photos; privacy violated by male officer, she tells town
[Paradise Valley, AZ]
By Stephanie A. Miller, The Arizona Republic
March 10, 2001 Saturday, Final Chaser
Copyright 2001 Phoenix Newspapers, Inc.
The Arizona Republic
March 10, 2001 Saturday, Final Chaser
(PARADISE ALLEY, Ariz.) -- A claim for $500,000 has been filed against the Town of Paradise Valley by a woman who says her rights were violated when photos of her partially naked body were taken by a male police officer during an investigation.
Although there is no law that requires police agencies to use an officer of the opposite sex to take a victim's photo, the law does acknowledge the right to privacy, said Keith Knowlton, an attorney for Laura Myers, who was a resident of Paradise Valley when the incident occurred in November.
The claim states that during a domestic violence investigation police violated Myers' right to privacy after she objected to a male police officer taking the pictures of possible injuries.
There were no arrests in that incident.
An internal investigation is being conducted into the complaint, Police Chief John Wintersteen said.
Although the department has only one female reserve officer, efforts have been made to recruit female officers, Wintersteen said.
The efforts have been unsuccessful because of the lack of candidates who have applied or qualify for the position, he said.
"Our position is that what they did was unreasonable," Knowlton said. "Even though the officer was trying to gather evidence, the way he did it was not a way to respect her privacy when there were reasonable alternatives available," he said.
"The Paradise Valley Police Department is not set up to gather evidence of sexual assault or domestic violence or prepared to protect women, and that's wrong. In 2001, that should not happen."
Several other Valley police departments have trained female staff to take photos or provide support for victims who make such requests, according to Tracey Wilkinson, coordinator of the domestic violence action team for Scottsdale.
"I think the victim should be treated with respect because it's a basic human right," Wilkinson said.
The notice of claim seeks $500,000 as compensation "for her humiliation and the deprivation of her constitutional rights."

Konoba Matana in Pomena: why not some pasta after long time?
There are few restaurants in Pomena but if you go before noon not all are serving lunch or breakfast yet and others remain closed before 12.
The one I speak off now was in beginning of Pomena and displayed menu by the road, promised organic food and it was open - I browsed vegetarian options which were reasonably priced but didn't feel like having 'cheese from oil' again - I had it almost every day and like it a lot, but it was time for change.
Plus we sat here alone by the terrace by the door, next to the road and it was great spot for watching people and activity on the road side and I would stop here even if I had only something to drink... yes, you quickly adapt to easy goingness of Mljet folk, you're not in hurry and share greetings with those few passer-by, didn't matter they were one of the inhabitants of visitors, anyone who felt similar way.
Staff by Matana was very friendly and helpful, plus they had lovely grand dog whom was laying next to us... on floor, which made us feel like at home. Other than restaurant they give appartments to rent (like almost everyone else in Pomena), we saw few young people came here to stay and were picked by landlord, and in general the place had cozy atmosphere altogether.
Favorite Dish: My 'breakfast' was spaghetti with sheep cheese. It is actually dish you would normally have it for lunch, but why not once strong breakfast... tomato sauce was thick and heavy, one of better ones I remember eating in restaurants recently (and I have to say I was often disappointed over eating out, and wonder why simple sauces must be those ground tomatos from can whcih all taste the same if they are really easy to make from fresh vegetables, couple of minutes work, really, and I can make very good tomato sauce myself... but on the seaside (not only Croatia, lets be fair) you'd get charged more or less 10 euro for that). Why I actually chosed the very simple pasta then? Well, I kinda loved the idea of sheep cheese with the regular sauce (after I though avoiding cheese, yes, I know...it's easy to change one's mind if eyes are hungry, haha). The cheese was actually nice, shredded and plenty: one plate and I didn't have to eat anything untill dinner.
I think I had to thank cheese plus pasta combination.
One more note: their portion was larger than by others, comparatively speaking so I think it's good value for money.
Other food they served: well, it's a seaside and you know what you get from the sea :)- Budget Travel
Konoba Pikala in Soline: traditional salted sardines
We got hungry when we ended in Soline after many hours spent in shadow - and water of course - of the big lake and walking slowly though wonderful forest. It was time to sit down and Soline is very quiet village with a few houses, with very a few small and family run restaurants (better called 'konoba' which is local, Croatian word). Here you won't go for ordinary, continental culinary. Here is what sea feeds and what is born from the local, red soil and sun and prepared in their Soline way.
Favorite Dish: We ordered light dishes - as we already had lunch that day and it was already late afternoon when sun isn't too hot anyways. Traditionally prepared 'slane gere' or salted sardines were my choice. And slight warning for continental folk: they are really salty. This is one of the ancient (and still practiced today by the Mediterranean people) ways to keep sardines, to conserve the meat. Eaten all with bone yet skinned and meat is raw, strong as fish goes. It is interesting, but yes, very simple meal and traditional which I actually liked. You get to taste very essence of the local sardine. Eaten with delicious raw tomato and onion, together with bread... juicy tomato felt like it was juct picked form their garden couple of minutes before served... heavenly! It is actually great to have that meal - will make you full no matter you have it as lunch or as dinner.
Octopus omelette was yummy as well, although I just tried a little by my man. Was served with boiled potato, which is nice combination, not typical one.
I recommend also their home made biscuit - kolac with shredded apples.- National/State Park

bbq on the kerb
i cant recall the name of the place but as you leave the pier in polace you turn left and a few hundred metres up the road there is a big bbq on one side of the road and the restaurant on the other. the service was great, the food was excellent and the pricing was a nice change from restaurants on hvar, korcula or dubrovnik.
Favorite Dish: friends ordered the scampi which was presented as a true work of art.

"My 7 year old son doesn't want to take his Ritalin anymore. It makes him feel YUCK!" This is the gist of a post that went crazy on a Facebook page set up for locals in our area. After about 200 comments a member of the group took the initiative and started a separate Facebook Page called "Ritalin + the Alternatives".
If you want to cause World War 3 just mention the "R" word. It doesn't matter if you know anything about ADHD or not. Everyone has an opinion. "Half of my child's class is on Ritalin", "An entire grade in my child's school is on Ritalin and they are being given this stuff without prescription". "The teacher insists my child has to go on Ritalin". "It worked for my child". "Stop drugging your kids". Blah blah blah.
Those who have ADHD in their family may mention Concerta which has the same active ingredient as Ritalin. They may also mention Strattera which is also used to treat ADHD.
Then of course there are the diets, the good and bad foods, and a vast array of nutriceuticals and other treatments. But nothing stirs up the emotions as much as the word Ritalin. I could almost feel the blood and vitriol spurting out through the ether as the slanging matches gathered momentum.
As the end of year exams draw near, this debate about Ritalin hots up. More prescriptions are written to supposedly help children and teens achieve better results. Who is writing these prescriptions and on what basis are they justifying their decisions to give a particular person ADHD medication?
If this medication is being obtained without the necessary monthly prescription who is supplying the medication?
These are the questions that should be asked.
At LADD® we repeatedly say, and I have to confess that I join the Facebook bunfights, that ADHD medication has a role to play in a multi-disciplinary treatment plan for managing ADHD. See Dave's article on Medication only being 12.5% of a good treatment plan.
There is no magic bullet and no one thing works. ADHD is a complex condition and requires a thorough diagnosis and the medication needs to be constantly monitored. What we need to remember is ADHD medication makes you aware that you have been distracted, the primary characteristic of ADHD, but you still need to learn the life skills and tools necessary to manage the ADHD.
Watch this video clip to see how Ritalin and Concerta work in the brain.
Is it really ADHD?
There are many conditions that look like ADHD but aren't. Teachers can not, and should not, tell any parent to put their child on Ritalin or any other medication. They can and should suggest that the parents take their child for an assessment to see why the child is not reaching his or her potential.
We live in a violent society with a great deal of family trauma and poverty. Teachers and Medical Professionals should be looking out for some of the following situations that may be causing ADHD-type symptoms:
- Is the child hungry? No-one can concentrate on an empty stomach.
- Is the family going through a break-up?
- Is Dad or Mom having to live elsewhere in order to earn a living?
- Is there even a Mom or Dad around?
- What time does the child have to get up to get to school? Does the child even have a roof over his or her head? It is not only those who live in our informal settlements who are battling poverty. It is happening in our middle class schools too.
- Has the child been involved in, or witness to a violent crime?
- Is the child emotionally immature?
- Is there bullying going on within the school or in the home environment?
- Is the child being sexually or emotionally abused?
A simple question to ask yourself. Could you focus if you were struggling with any one of the above situations? If not, how can a child be expected to?
There are of course many other aspects that Medical Professionals consider when making an ADHD diagnosis. Teachers can - should - educate themselves about ADHD and learn how to manage ADHD in their classes a little better.
Parents, don't be bullied into making decisions until you are sure you fully understand all the implications of a diagnosis. Make a list of your questions and fears and demand that your medical professional answers your questions to your satisfaction. On the other hand, don't reject medication out of hand. It has its place alongside a loving family, adequate nutrition, exercise and the correct therapy to overcome specific disabilities.

The CEDC provides transactional legal assistance to nonprofits and community-based organizations, and social and creative enterprises in Detroit and throughout southeastern Michigan. Students engage in the supervised practice of law in a professional setting. The CEDC's goals are to provide first-rate legal services to enable our clients to transform their vision into reality, enhance the community, and contribute to the economic vitality of the region, while providing our students the opportunity to enhance their professional capabilities by doing actual "lawyering."
Click on a heading below to expand.
The clinic can also satisfy the Capstone requirement for JD/MUP dual-degree students. Please contact the Urban Planning Program for additional information.
You will be responsible for interviewing and counseling clients; planning your matters; drafting legal documents, memos and correspondence; and managing relationships with your clients and others. You will identify the legal issues, research them, consider different alternatives, negotiate agreements, and implement client decisions. Each student team will normally work on several client matters throughout the semester. We try to accommodate, where possible, your particular areas of interest or expertise, but are bound to represent clients that have retained the clinic and feel a responsibility to consider the needs of clients that have requested our assistance. Students will learn various substantive areas of law. Students interact with client CEOs and board members. At times, clinic students provide community education workshops on substantive law issues pertinent to the clinic's practice areas.
We meet twice a week to discuss our work, lawyering skills, and issues facing the community and the region. The weekly seminar is a time for reflection and discussion with a strong emphasis on critical evaluation. We use simulation exercises to explore lawyering skills such as interviewing, counseling, case planning, and negotiation, among others. Part of the seminar is devoted to case rounds, with students discussing what is new and difficult in their cases.
Students typically work in teams of two. The team will meet with their supervisor on a weekly basis. In the seminar and supervision meetings, you will explore important lawyering issues through the lens of your client matters, such as decision-making under conditions of uncertainty, the allocation of power between lawyer and client, and the challenges of representing groups. We will ask you to think through the ethical issues that arise in the matters and in representing organizations. We will ask you to reflect on your work in seminar and through reflection papers.
Some of the CEDC's clients are new nonprofit organizations and social enterprises that need assistance in structuring, developing governance structures, obtaining tax exemption, and complying with government regulations. Others are more established groups that need assistance as their programs grow. For these clients, we may draft and negotiate contracts and leases, create worker-owned cooperatives and social enterprises, counsel groups regarding land use and other regulations, provide tax advice regarding income-generating activities, advise on employment issues, counsel on risk management, and research and advise on copyright and trademark issues. The CEDC represents a broad array of clients, including groups working in urban agriculture and food security, youth development, the sharing economy, and art, media, and artistic production.
You will receive seven credits for the clinic: three for the seminar and four for the client work. Each component is graded separately. The course is graded without a curve. Students are expected to work approximately 20–30 hours per week through the semester (including class preparation and attendance). The clinic has developed an evaluation and grading criteria, which you will receive when you enroll in the clinic. Grades for the seminar take into account class attendance, participation, and preparation for exercises. In grading your client work, we will consider the quality of work you produce, success in collaboration, demonstrated professionalism and effort, reflectiveness, and "billable" hours, among other factors.
Registration for the clinic happens through the clinic registration process. There are no formal prerequisites for the clinic. The substantive law of enterprise organizations, tax, nonprofit, land use, intellectual property, and employment are often used in client work. Prior experience in business or corporate law is not necessary.

"My experience with the clinic was among the most valuable of my time in law school; no other law school class or activity prepared me for practice as effectively as my work in the clinic. It allowed me to work with unique clients with diverse legal needs, exposed me to complicated ethical scenarios, and forced me to explore my own strengths and weaknesses as a lawyer.
"The clients the CEDC takes on are immensely rewarding to work with. The clinic's clients engage in grassroots community development work in distressed communities. These groups need a wide variety of legal services, and the clinic allowed me to personally work on issues ranging from environmental impact statements to criminal trespass. I can't think of another client base that provides the breadth of issues as the clients in the CEDC.
"The professors in the CEDC allowed me to essentially manage my own practice. From my first client meeting, I was required to balance my clients' needs with my other classes and activities, and to ensure that my projects proceeded to completion. While the professors and my classmates provided valuable guidance and input, the decisions on my cases were my own to make, which allowed me to grow tremendously as a lawyer. I learned a lot about how to interact with different clients, how to monitor my own workflow, and also how to create boundaries in my practice and my personal life. These lessons—on top of the practical legal experience I gained—helped prepare me for practice beyond law school."
—Tim Cunningham, '09 Associate, Davis Wright TremainePortland, OR
"What I got from the CEDC was an experience driven by my clients' needs, and shaped by careful guidance of my professors. The first shock of my semester came with the amount of direction and control that my clinic partner and I had over representing our clients. Our professor asked pointed questions and provided advice, but it was up to us to create our timelines, set the agenda, and determine what to do and how best to go about solving our clients' problems. I was also surprised by how personal the practice of law could be. We had to work to establish relationships with our clients, build trust, and get information from them by asking the right questions. We discovered that representing a client isn't like taking a law school exam; the facts you need aren't on the page, and sometimes the client doesn't know or appreciate the legal significance of those facts. My involvement in CEDC…made my legal education complete."
—Kelvin Lawrence, '07Associate, Baker HostetlerColumbus, OH
"My participation in the CEDC was the most valuable educational experience that I took away from my time at Michigan Law. Not only does the clinic provide an opportunity to build life lawyering skills, it gives students interested in a wide range of areas—from housing to government to cities in general—the chance to learn the ins and outs of representing clients in a challenging urban environment. The Michigan Law Quad may be unparalleled in the caliber of its faculty and the quality of its architecture, but Detroit is truly the greatest classroom."
—Margaret Hayden, '10Associate, Paul WeissNew York, NY

Overbey heading home to eastern Kansas
Special to
Special to
The Hays Daily News
Bill Overbey, former chief financial officer at Hays Medical Center, resigned a few months ago to find the next chapter in his life. After an extensive search across the country looking at larger medical centers and hospital systems, Overbey found an open door in his home community of Topeka.
He recently accepted the position of CEO at Kansas Rehab Hospital. KRH is 60-percent owned by HealthSouth, and 40-percent owned by Stormont-Vail HealthCare. Overbey will start his new duties approximately June 16.
Overbey said he would miss several things about Hays, most importantly his friends and acquaintances.
"The people. ... Life on the prairie has its challenges. We live a long ways from pro football and reliable airports, but there isn't one person in this community that wouldn't break his back to help you if help is needed," he said. "That's something you don't find everywhere else.
"Karen and I will always appreciate the impact Hays had on our kids. The support and commitment of teachers and parents within this school system is second to none. All three of our kids chose music instead of sports. They have been a part of a music dynasty in Hays, much like Smith Center or Hutchinson football. There is something extraordinarily special about this music program that brings the best out of every kid it touches. We have been blessed to have leaders like Elise Peterson and Johnny Matlock make a positive mark on our children that will last the rest of their lives. We won't soon forget the impact many, many teachers from O'Loughlin, Felten and Hays High had on all three kids."
When asked about his experience at HaysMed, Overbey said it was special to work for the growing hospital.
"It has been an honor and a privilege to work at HaysMed for the past 13 years," he said. "Hays Medical Center is a class act, and the leadership -- including the board, administrative team, and department directors -- is what made the difference. I have thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the team that helped to make a difference in the lives of people in our community and the region through the delivery of quality patient care. I will miss many friendships made at HaysMed."
Overbey participated in the community as a coach, Boy Scout leader, church trustee and a board member on the Downtown Hays Development Corp. His wife, Karen, worked as a dental hygienist for Dr. Bud Dalton and Dr. Troy Hallagin during her years in Hays.
She also taught fitness classes at the Center for Health Improvement all 13 years.
Their daughter, Kelsey, lives in Manhattan; daughter Kayla graduates this May from the University of Kansas with degrees in journalism and English, and son Nicholas will attend Kansas State University this fall to study finance and music.

Buffer/Polisher Tool
I'm looking for a standard automatic buffer or polisher that you would use on your car. Are there types that let you do sanding if you change out the buffing pad with some sandpaper? I don't mind wet-sanding by hand, I'd probably sand off too much anyway with a tool but I just don't have the energy afterwards to properly buff by hand.What would be cheaper? A) Buying a cordless - I see some for $30 - but they don't come with the battery or charger? B) Buying a corded one - usually $25-30 - but I'd also have to find some cheap and really long extension cords because I live in an apartment complex and would have to run it all the way out to the parking lot. Any help is appreciated as I did the 'rustoleum paint job' on my truck recently and need to finish it off by doing one last wetsand+buff job. |
i tried to wetsand the orange peel out between coats but because this is the first time i ever tackled a major paint job, and a thrifty version of it at that, i didn't really succeed. the paint has been settling for a week now and there's not much uniformity in the surface. it's not really smooth in most areas. any parts that you might be able to see a reflection (because its a gloss enamel) would be like a rough water reflection. |
Is the paint you used a single-stage paint (color and clear in one product)? How much experience do you have with colorsanding (what you're calling "wetsanding") and using a high-speed buffer? |
before this, i've zero experience wetsanding/colorsanding and using a high speed buffer. |
Especially since Rustoleum is not particularly hard paint and you could easily remove large amounts if it wirh your proposed wet sanding procedure. It's a lot like paint with a flex additive already built in, which is not good in places where you don't need that. I would have used more expensive paint from someplace like a boating store ($30/quart as opposed to $10/quart). Having said that, I have repainted a car with gloss black Rustoleum, about 5 years ago. It's faded quite a bit, but way better then crappy MAACO paint jobs (and I used an air compressor and paint gun. This is what the car looked like 5 years ago after repainting (I only repainted the front end): http://forum.videohelp.com/images/gu...escort_001.jpg |
i did wet sand in between coats without taking any paint off except for one or two minor spots so that doesn't concern me as much. right now, i'd like to basically wetsand and buff the hood and see what happens, if it works out then i can continue and if i screw it up then the damage is limited and i can easily fix it the truck itself is 17 years old and prior to this paint job it had a lot of oxidation and faded paint that i didn't like. i could live with the rustoleum problems i have now as its better than what i was working with before but again it's all part of a learning process where i want to gain experience. i was going for the cheap fix, i think i just rushed a little bit trying to get it all done in one weekend otherwise i think i would've come out a lot better. nice job on your escort, it came out pretty clean. now does anyone know where i can get a good deal on a buffer? |
If you want cheap, you could just get a buffer wheel attachment for a drill. Well, that route is cheaper assuming you already have some kind of drill.
Unless I know I'm going to beat the hell out of a tool and need a true "professional grade" one, my first stop for a tool is Harbor Freight. And even then I guess HF is still my first stop just to see what they have. And if the sanding and polishing doesn't work, just repaint the car white. White hides imperfections better. I've used Rusto white on cars using a brush and didn't even bother doing a final sand/polish since it passed the 10-foot test. The 5-foot test... eh, it started looking iffy if you stare at it. And even that depended on the lighting and the angle. Last edited by Deusxmachina; 07-24-2012 at 12:08 PM.. Christmas is a time when kids tell Santa what they want and adults pay for it.
