That would make them more "perfecter!"

8th Summer Institute on Migration and Global Health
Berkeley and Oakland, California / Monday, June 24, 2013 – Friday, June 28, 2013
The Summer Institute on Migration and Global Health is an international event that offers researchers, faculty, graduate students and professionals working with migrant communities around the world, a unique opportunity to learn about different health issues that affect mobile populations. International experts will present on the relationship between migration and global health from public health, public policy, and social science perspectives.
The organization of the 8th Summer Institute on Migration and Global Health is a joint effort of the Health Initiative of the Americas –a program of UC Berkeley's School of Public Health-, the UC Global Health Institute through its Center of Expertise on Migration and Health, and the Migration and Health Research Center.
UC Graduate Student Workshop Proposals
As a special track of the Summer Institute, the UC Center of Expertise on Migration and Health (COEMH) will offer a Research Training Workshop for University of California graduate students, recent postdoctoral scholars, and junior faculty attending the Institute.
The Research Training Workshop will feature presentations of ongoing or recently completed research relating to migration and health, undertaking by graduate students, recent postdocs, and junior faculty, through the UC system. UC faculty members will serve as discussants, providing expert feedback on the student's work and commenting on its relevance to their own research. The workshop organizing committee will seek publication of selected papers in a peer-reviewed journal.

Two dozen pots of chili that will send mouth watering aroma through the halls of the Manteca Senior Center on Saturday, Aug. 29 is in the planning stages by the Del Webb Volunteers and the Second Harvest Food Bank.
During his younger years, Eric Scholz had limited vision.
You might know how to get to downtown from the Bass Pro Shops and Big League Dreams but the more than 2.5 million out-of-town visitors that the two entities attract in a given year may not.

Personal Debt Journeys: Consolidated Credit Announces Contest Winners
FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., Jan. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Clients shared their personal journeys of being divorced with children to finding financial independence; learning credit cards should not be a way of life; and scammed by crooks to finding freedom from debt.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120215/FL53612LOGO )
The national credit counseling agency asked clients to write about how the organization impacted their lives, helped them to live within a budget, or assisted them in achieving a goal.
Linda Diaz of Houston, Texas won first place for her submission: "Desperate to hold on to my house while raising two teenage daughters alone I maxed out my credit cards. I turned to payday loans and the nightmare grew. I didn't know where to turn. I heard about Consolidated Credit and decided to reach out for help. It felt like the weight of the world was lifted from my shoulders. What a welcome relief."
"I am so thankful to the representatives for being so kind to us," writes the second place winner, the Tebbenkamp family of Alma, MO. "They were able to negotiate with our creditors and get us lower interest rates. No longer, do we feel that our life is spinning out of our control. We are beginning to start thinking about saving for our retirement and our children's education. I hope that I can teach my children how to have financial freedom." "Client stories are great to share with others who may be facing a similar situations and are unaware that there is help available. We want people to know that they are not alone," said Howard Dvorkin, CPA and founder of Consolidated Credit. Alan Hogan of Rowlett, TX told his story, "I lost my job as a well-paid systems analyst. My world crashed. I tried to downsize, but I kept seeing the credit cards maxed out. A co-worker convinced me to get involved in a program to completely eliminate my debt - it was a scam. I lost several thousand dollars and had debt collectors harassing me to no end. You can only imagine how distrusting I would be after being scammed. I decided to do my homework. I took the plunge and had Consolidated Credit to take over my accounts. From the beginning, they explained the program and offered solutions. My life is getting back to normal. Thanks Consolidated Credit, I'm a believer." About: Consolidated Credit is one of the nation's largest credit counseling organizations and has helped over 5 million people.

Rifle Range Gets the Boot From Mont. Park
Mar 18, 2:31 AM (ET)
By SUSAN GALLAGHER
HELENA, Mont. (AP) - Erosion by wind and water is a big part of the story at Makoshika State Park, a place of badlands and dinosaur fossils, bobcats and bluebirds. Now some people who enjoy firing guns at a range there fear erosion of what they have come to view as an entitlement.
The state parks agency plans to eliminate a decades-old rifle range at Makoshika, a rolling expanse of peculiar sandstone formations in eastern Montana. The 11,500-acre park gets about 54,000 visits a year, and is especially popular among gun enthusiasts in Glendive, about a quarter-mile from the rifle range and its plywood targets.
"Things have changed," said Tom Reilly, an assistant administrator in the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks. "Now we have a visitor center on one side and a public campground on the other."
Shooting may disturb people who "come from New Jersey to camp and wake up to gunfire," he said "We may be used to that, living here, but others may not be."
The state agency's new 10-year management plan for Makoshika calls for moving the shooting range, but no new site has been selected.
That concerns Glendive shooters such as Ernest Huether, who sells and repairs guns. He worries the alternative to the state range will be a private one, with fees and a less convenient location.
Another shooter, Henry Mischel of the Dawson County Rod & Gun Club, said state planners should keep in mind that guns are a traditional part of life in Montana.
His response to concerns about visitors: "I don't like the sound of sirens when I go to a big city, but I have to deal with it."
Mischel said the rifle range has existed at least for the 50 years he has lived in Glendive. On a busy day, the range - passed by visitors heading to the park's interior - draws dozens of shooters carrying handguns and rifles.
The new Makoshika plan, prepared after study of recommendations from a public advisory group, was approved in late 2005 by Jeff Hagener, director of Fish, Wildlife and Parks.
The state commission overseeing the agency will take up an appeal Monday by John N. Haas of Glendive, who has challenged removal of the range. Eliminating it might be OK were there a suitable replacement, but one has not been found, Haas said.
"I'm not sure that a suitable replacement site exists - it depends on what is defined as suitable," he wrote in the appeal. And without an alternative site, he said, "future development within the park cannot successfully be planned around a faulty assumption that the range will be moved."
There have been no reports of accidents or close calls associated with the range, but the plan says "the possibility of a misfire" into a populated area cannot be ignored.
"People wander all over," said Jim Swanson of the park advocacy group Friends of Makoshika. "They can drop over a hill and, boom, they're right in a rifle range."

"Should I hold on to my tears or let them roll down my cheek?" Suchitra Sen (April 6, 1931 -- January 17, 2014) asked Ajoy Kar, the director during the shoot of one of the scenes of "Saat Pakhey Bandha". Tears soon filled her eyes, the way Ajoy Kar had wanted them. To the Mahanayika, it came naturally, without any glycerine.
Known in the film circle as Mrs. Sen, she in many ways was a trendsetter. A married woman and a mother when she joined the film industry, she was the first to be viewed as both assertive and feminine. And unlike others, socially, she was notches above as she was married to a renowned Sen family from Dhaka.
Almost always in cotton saris on celluloid, at least to begin with, she was what the Bengali middle class liked -- a beautiful face, an amiable personality with a penchant for 'care', 'sacrifice' and 'understanding'! Directors in the likes of Bibhuti Laha ("Agradoot") and Saroj Dey ("Agragami") created this 'La Femme Mystique' around her with their films, "Agni Parikkha", "Shobar Uporey", "Sagarika", "Shilpi", "Pothey Holo Deri" etc. So, as these films unfolded on screen, it was kind of a routine affair to find her oversee the 'goody' Uttam Kumar, who was always the underdog socially or financially!
The films had the usual stuff to pull in the middle class -- the ill-doings of some characters and the omnipresence of a good 'Kaku' to help her sort out the mess. Some dramatic scenes, tear-jerking dialogues, catchy songs formed the rest of the items of the films' menu. Frankly, to serious film critics, Mrs. Sen's roles from this perspective was no great shake when compared to the ones depicted by Arundhuti Devi in "Mahasthaner Pothey", Kaberi Bosu in "Shyamoli" and Supriya Chowdhury in "Meghe Dhaka Tara" during the same period.
But then, why a fairytale-like story about Sen?
First her grace, then an original style of screen presence and finally the roles that allowed her to travel to areas without male company, something women always dreamt of but seldom attempted. The combination of these three laid the foundation to her immense popularity, to the extent, that in Bengal anyone with these traits was 'Suchitra Sen'! But were these enough for her to be the cynosure of all eyes for her 25 years in films and then again be a subject of discussion for another three decades despite being in seclusion? The answer lies elsewhere.
It began with Debaki Kumar Bosu's 1954 hit, "Bhagoban Sree Krishna Chaitanya" where she was Vishnu Priya opposite Basanta Chowdhury. The film caught the sharp eyes of Bimal Roy who took her to Bombay for "Devdas". Here, despite her flawed Hindi she left an All-India mark that led Raj Khosla to cast her in "Bombai Ka Babu" and Hrishikesh Mukherjee in his maiden directional venture, "Musafir" while at home, Kolkata, it was Asit Sen's "Dwip Jele Jai". Her unconventional roles in these films singled her out from her contemporaries. "Smriti Tuku Thak", "Hospital", "Saptapadi", "Saat Pakey Bandh" (for which she won the 1963 Moscow Film Festival's best actress award), "Uttar Falguni", "Sandhya Dwiper Shikha" and "Mamta" -- the Hindi version of "Uttar Falguni" -- further cemented this fact. Here, she transported her characters' innermost feelings through her movements, gestures and above all those eyes of her which subtly conveyed complex attitudes, feelings toward others and the gravity of the situation. She didn't act, she lived her roles. If she had to look at someone with anger and another with love, one could see it in her eyes as she looked from one to the other; there was no need to change the expression. Call it 'underplaying' but she outplayed all others in the scenes with the cine-goers and critics both swept off their feet. She continued doing that till end as in "Megh Kalo", "Fariyad", "Aandhi", "Debi Chowdhurani", and "Datta". And mind you, these are all non-Uttam films except "Saptapadi". Regretfully, most of us undervalue her by linking her with Uttam Kumar with whom her biggest achievement was "Agni Parikkha", "Harano Sur" and 'Sapatapadi', if one was to evaluate her work, truly cinematically.
In the mid-sixties when Sharmila Tagore, Aparna Sen, Madhavi Mukherjee and Tanuja gave the Bengali cinema a new turn, Sen tried to evoke a sensation in the industry with scanty outfits and even played some trendy roles -- as in "Fariyad" for example. But that did not last long as by then that magnetic charm in her largely got jaded. When "Pronoy Pasha", in 1978 bombed at the box office, she wisely chose to quit. Her portrayal of Sarat Babu's feministic Bijoya in "Datta", a blockbuster, released the year before kept her image of the past.
Interestingly, Sen always worked with mainstream directors and never with the greats of Bengali cinema, Satyajit Ray, Tapan Sinha, Ritwik Ghatak and Mrinal Sen, where make-up mattered little and natural self was the top priority. Satyajit Ray wanted her for "Debi Chowdhurani" with the condition that she would not work for others during the making of the film. Sen refused it on the ground that her colleagues who made her 'Suchitra Sen' would be seriously affected by it. Ray shelved the project and she missed the opportunity to become the artists' artiste. Her lifetime desire was to play Tagore's Damini in "Chaturanga" but Hemen Ganguly, the producer suddenly committed suicide and director, Purnendra Potri gave up. She then considered enacting the role in theatre, but no one came up with a script.
Sen's 'worshippers' often recall her tough personality. In the late fifties, Uttam Kumar kept her waiting on the sets of "Harano Sur" of which he was also the producer. She did not like that and 'paid him back' by demanding her name be put first in the film casting and posters when the trend was the other way round. Again, when Uttam Kumar chose films bypassing her in favour of others, she dumped him and went to Bombay to work with stars like Dev Anand and Dilip Kumar as a result of which the release of "Saptapadi" -- again an Uttam Kumar production -- was delayed by three years. This time it was her way of settling score with the 'flop master general' whom she gave the first 'break' of a big hit through "Share Chuhattor" in 1954. Yet they were the best of friends!
She never chased Bollywood. In fact it was the other way round. Raj Kapoor was on his knees with a bouquet trying to sign her but failed (she thought it was demeaning for a man to do that) while Dev Anand tried unsuccessfully to contact his 'doe-eyed, dusky beauty and immensely popular star of Bengal' whenever in Calcutta.
After retirement, she made no public appearances and assiduously tried to avoid publicity. This created the Greta Garbo-esque image that also worked for her being deeply missed. Plagued by ill-health, the last few years were kind of a long death watch but she never slipped from public memory as she was 'Bengal royalty'.
The life of Mrs. Sen was blazing, giant size and yet so underwritten. But that was what she had wanted.

His heart began to pound faster and faster as he stared out into the darkness, unable to find the cause of the sound. He threw aside his covers, sat up and groped on the bedside table for his wand. Lumos! He whispered, his voice surprisingly even. Light flooded the small, cramped room and he peered out of the window. But still nothing. George, you git!George immediately relaxed at the sound of the muffled voice and flung the window open. A gust of freezing air slapped his face.Whatre you doing down there, Fred?What does it look like? I cant see, its too dark. Well then get down here and bring some water! George pushed his hair out his eyes and furrowed his brows. B

His father, James, had recently been promoted to Minister of Magic and had gotten his only son a job in the Ministry.Harry, hurry up, or youll be late! His mother, Lily, yelled up the staircase.

Sensors and MEMs devices make up about 3 percent of the total semiconductor market. Products are being utilized in all types of applications that have never required them before. Sensors and MEMs are able to make applications "smarter" by being able to sense the world around them, therefore making end products much easier to use.
For 2014, the sensors and MEMs market is expected to grow by only about 2 percent, but in 2015, the market is expected to jump from $10 billion to 12 billion. Driven by accelerometers, and sensors used in automotive, the market is expected to grow by a compound annual growth rate of 10 percent each year thru 2019.

Ford 'E-Rod' Is An EV for the NASCAR Set
- |
- 8:00 pm |
- Permalink
The world's coolest electric car was ready to roll. The battery was charged. The software was updated. The tires were fresh. But all that leading-edge tech was undone by the most mundane of parts.
The tie rods.
Mike North and his crew discovered the rods were buggered while checking the alignment. No problem, North thought, we've got spares.
They didn't fit.
The clock was ticking. North had booked Infineon Raceway north of San Francisco for one hour to give E-Rod a shakedown. Phil Sadow, the electrical engineer responsible for making the 1933 Ford run, grabbed a chop saw and set to work.
"We've got 26 minutes," North said as sparks flew from the saw. "Tell me we'll be ready."
Sadow leaned into the saw, willing it to cut faster. After what seemed an eternity, the blade cut through the rod. One down. One to go.
"Is it gonna work?" North said. "Tell me it's gonna work."
The saw cut through the second rod. Sadow eyeballed the parts. They weren't pretty, but they'd do.
"Yeah," he said. "It's gonna work."

Fall 2003
GOV 310L • American Government - Honors - W
Unique | Days | Time | Location | Instructor |
35585 |
Course Description
Fulfills first half of the legislative requirement for 6 hours of American government. This course introduces honors students to the government and politics of Texas (some) and the United States (a lot). It concentrates on the political philosophy and political history of the United States: What are the ideas about politics and government that are most relevant to understanding the United States as a representative democracy? What were the events, ideas, and realities behind the political development of the United States from thirteen states on the Atlantic coast to its emergence as a superpower and, now, as sole superpower at the beginning of the twenty-first century. The course similarly discusses the political development and institutions of the state of Texas. Course lectures will be supplemented by guest lectures and videos. Class attendance and participation is expected, and students may be called upon.
Grading Policy
3 exams consitute 70% of final grade: 2 during the semester, each worth 20% of the final grade. The third test is a cumulative final exam, worth 30% of the final grade. The two exams will be a combination of multiple choice (10%) and take-home essay tests (10%). The final exam will require an in-class essay. There will be no makeup exams. Also, your are responsible for two short papers. One is due the second week of class. You are to write an autobiographical account of what politics means to you. This should be no longer than four pages double-spaced (or 1500 words). You are to put in your own words what politics means to you;it is up to you-and there is no right answer here-to define "politics". The paper is worth 5%. The other paper will be due later in the semester and is worth 10% of your grade. Third, you are responsible for attending and engaging in class discussion. There will be pop quizzes on the assigned readings and students are expected to participate in the discussion of course materials covered in class or that week. Discussion, participation, and the quizzes constitute the final 15% of your course grade.
There is no textbook; there is a reading packet available at Longhorn Copies on Guadalupe St., which has readings in US and Texas government.

Hi. I did this journey in January 2010. I don't suppose much has changed. So, we arranged transport from Don Det through to Hue in Vietnam. This involved: a boat to the mainland; a big bus to Pakse ; a tuk tuk to the bus station; a very long wait (4 hours or so) at the bus station; and an extremely cramped, smokey, noisy and lengthy overnight bus to Hue.
We arrived in Hue sometime late morning I seem to remember and booked straight onto a train to Hanoi which left at 4.30pm or something like that. It arrived in Hanoi about 12 hours later. So our overall journey door-to-door was something like 44 hours.
So it's not easy! And I would say the leg from Pakse to Hue was the worst journey I did in 7 months of travel. But I got over it pretty quickly!
There are other routes you can take e.g. bus to Vientiene then the bus from there to Hanoi but I don't think there's anything significantly quicker.#2 Posted: 4/11/2011 - 05:44

Quite recently i've just returned to my country(Japan) after 2 months travelling --China, Viet Nam and Laos, and in my travelling i took a route for going to Ha Noi from 4000 islands as below.
*China-Viet Nam -northern Laos -southern Laos "4000 islands- Pakse - Attapeu -Ngoc Hoi (north of Central Highlands in VN)- Hue -Ha Noi"- China-Japan
You can use this route for going to Ha Noi as one more very good option besides "Pakse to Hue via Savannakhet and Lao Bao border" route. I used this route ="via Bo y border" many times for my travellings between southern Laos and Central Highlands & central Viet Nam. It's very good route with no stress and no conflictions, and you can enjoy very good scenery all the way from Pakse to Hue.
(my recent travel from 4000 islands to Ha Noi)
(A)from 4000 islands(Nakasang) to Pakse--booking bus ticket with any agent in Don Det or Don Khong is almost the same content.
(B)from Pakse to Ngoc Hoi via Attapeu and Bo Y border (actually:Pakse 07:00am-Ngoc Hoi 15:00pm)---by Mai Linh Express's(=the Vietnamese biggest bus company) direct bus(Cap:45 persons)= run between Pakse and Gia Lai (=Pleiku in VN) daily
(C)from Ngoc Hoi to Hue (actually:Ngoc Hoi 08:45am catching on NR.14-Hue16:00pm near touristy area)---by Quinh Ngoc's minibus(Ford=Cap:16 persons= run between Gia Lai and Dong Ha daily), with this minibus we can directly go to Hue passing through Da Nang
(D)from Hue to Ha Noi (actually:Hue 05:30pm-Ha Noi 06:00am next morning)---by Sleeper bus operated by TheSinhTourist(this company's sleeper is very comfortable with it's structure of inside)
I stayed at Ngoc Hoi one over night and at Hue 3 overnights and in sleeper bus one overnight before reaching to Ha Noi, but if you want to go to Ha Noi as fast as possible, you may need one overnight at Ngoc Hoi or Kon Tum + one overnigh in sleeper(Hue to Ha Noi) in minimum.
If you are interested in this route for going to Ha Noi, i'll offer you more detailed informations, especially about 2 bus services--booking point & departure point in Pakse and catching point of (C) in VN, timetables, bus fares, driver's Tel number of (C)-it's very important for being picked up, because any travel agencies have no informations about these 2 bus services because those are still out of their buisiness with the reasons of not tourists use but Vietnamese people use even in Laos--but we also can use them as very good transports for our travellings.

I use Retin-A, and I found that this cleanser stings my face. I prefer the "gentle" version, though even that also sometimes stings my sensitive skin.
so i just started to use this product its been ok it feels like i still have soap on my face but i still do wash it again with dessert essance tea tree after just to feel fresh but my face does not get/feel dry at all but so far its been ok..
More reviews by isabelheitmeier
I was so troubled by ance at one point I need to see a professional dermatologist. They prescribe several skin care products for me and Cetaphil Normal to Oily Skin Cleanser is one of it.
It's very mild that it won't dry out your skin and at the same time keep you from shinny face.
I have used this stuff for a couple of years and I love it. It cleans fairly well and is very easy to use. I love the pump action, makes washing my face at night all the quicker. I wouldn't say that it deep cleans, but it does a thorough job of removing my makeup. Doesn't dry out my skin and leaves me feeling clean!
This is probably one of the most inexpensive cleansers but still gets the job done. I would usually use DHC deep cleansing oil to remove all my makeup since I don't trust a cleanser can remove makeup and get my face clean. However, DHC will always leave a bit of oily residue on my face. So this is the perfect cleanser to get rid of the residue without leaving my face dry. I have combination skin that is a little on the dry side. This cleanser never dries out my face but I will probably try the one for normal to dry skin in the future, since I like to try everything out. But this one will probably last me a while since the bottle is huge!
I bought this on accident, I meant to get original Cetaphil. I decided to try it anyway. First impression was that it was too harsh for my sensitive skin, so I wasn't thrilled. However, this does remove makeup better than the original formula. I think it will be something I could use seasonally as well. This might prove to be a humid oily-season product. I will continue to use the original formula until then. This summer I will update.
This was a so-so product. Disadvantages: dried out my sensitive/oily/acne-prone skin, strong smell, doesn't remove makeup (but I always use an oil-based make-up remover anyway). Advantages: cheap, lasts a long time, a good, generic cleanser for those who don't have skin issues.
Well I made a mistake purchasing this - I meant to get the regular Cethaphil for my dry and now turning sensitive skin. Lesson learned- READ LABELS! This stuff immediately burned when I applied to my wet face. Stinging, irritating... I could not get it off fast enough. I thought Cethaphil was supposed to be gentle, but apparently not all of it is, for me anyway. Definitely taking it back since I had a reaction to it, but I also just hate the smell - too strong and yucky powder.
This product is pretty great. I do remember feeling a film the first time I used it--don't ask why--but I haven't had that problem since the first or second time I've tried it. It leaves my skin feeling soft, smooth, and moisturized without it being greasy. If you use it to remove make-up, though, you'll want to invest in a good toner to use a few times a week. It's also gentle enough to use twice a day without my skin developing a tolerance to it. Absolutely love it!
This stuff is pretty awesome. It really does what it says, and I have yet to have a problem with it. At first I didn't like it because it made my skin feel tight and dry, but then I realized if you use just a little dot (a little larger than a pea) and lukewarm water, that the dry, tight feel goes away. The stuff lathers up pretty well so you don't need a lot of it, which is probably why I had dry skin when I first started using it. It's great for removing makeup and oil, and it has helped me keep my really problem skin under control, I absolutely love it!

Dissecting Trailers: Horror Movie Malarkey
By Kyle Anderson on August 4, 2011
As promised, friends, I'm back with trailers for upcoming horror movies. The tricky thing about horror trailers is that they tend to look good all the time, even if the movie itself ends up being incredibly stupid. Horror trailer editors need to be given a special award, but that's neither here nor there.
Let's get to the trailers, shall we?
Remember when I just said horror trailers tend to look good all the time? Forget all that; This looks like balls. For some reason, people find the "ParaSNOREmal INactivity" movies scary, and they cost, like, $8 to make, so why the hell not keep making them? And it's a prequel, my favorite. Did you notice? It takes place in 1988 when HD movie cameras were all staticky.
Here's my main problem with this: Ghosts? Fine. I can buy houses are haunted or even that specific people are in some way more affected by paranormal stuff than others, but Bloody Mary? Are they that bereft of ideas that they have to turn to an old game kids play? Yes. I think the answer is yes.
Oh good, another found-footage movie. I love those. (I do not really love those at all) At the very least, though, this one is more inventive than the others. Also, it's an interesting way to explain why America stopped giving a shit about the moon. I wouldn't want to go, either, if there were weird little critters up there. Or big critters. This movie was supposed to come out in the Spring and was held back, which I hope doesn't reflect on its quality, though it's possible. Even though I'm pretty interested in seeing this, I admit I've grown really tired of the gimmick of somebody getting pulled by their feet into darkness. They did it in Jurassic Park, for golly's sake. Let's just all agree to stop doing it, okay?
Sonofabitch. Twice. This trailer does the pulling into darkness thing twice. Ugh. John Carpenter's 1982 film The Thing is one of my favorite movies of all time, so the idea of prequel-remaking it doesn't sit all that well with me anyway. It does look like they're trying to at least stay true to the look of Carpenter's film, which I appreciate, but one of the hallmarks of the earlier film was its amazing use of practical effects. All of The Thing's many incarnations were made in all their visceral, tentacular glory by Rob Bottin or Stan Winston, and the craftsmanship of those effects were such that you really felt like these things you were seeing were real. This film, as is all too common, just uses CGI. No matter how good CGI looks, it doesn't look real. Period. Done. End of. But, I'll probably still go see this movie.
Okay, let's completely gloss over the fact that this trailer also does the pull-into-darkness thing; This movie looks bonkers. Some kind of gargoyle or demon thing is surrounded by fire. The fuck? Although 11-11-11 is one of the lamest titles ever, especially for a horror movie. Also, did I miss something about the "11 11″ prophecy they talk about? That's made up, right? That's not a real thing? I will say, the direction looks good and it's nice to see Darren Lynn Bousman doing non-Saw stuff.
Leave it to Guillermo del Toro to remake a 1973 TV movie and turn it into something that looks absolutely terrifying. The sound design alone is enough to give you nightmares, with the whispers and all that. Yikes. While not directed by del Toro, it was produced and written by him so it's got the style and the creepy fairy tale vibe of his other films. Is moving into an enormous, old, rundown house ever a good idea? No, no it isn't. And do you know why? Because likely there will be goblins living in the over-sized duct system. Ask anybody in charge of zoning, it's a lot more common than you think.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, how can you have more than one FINAL destination? I will give it to the franchise that they do think of incredibly horrific and elaborate deaths for people, but that's what I said about the Saw movies, too. It's the law of diminishing returns. Remember how the last one was just called The Final Destination, implying that it was going to be the last one they did? But that movie did unbelievably well at the box office, so they went "aw, fuck it," and made yet another one. This is what's known as the "New Beginning Phenomenon." In 1984 they made Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, and only one year later there was Friday the 13th: A New Beginning, which then gave birth to six more films. Money will always win out.
So, go get scared at the movies. Next time on Dissecting Trailers, I'm going back to my original, pick-it-apart-by-the-second format and do the trailer that made me call "No Way" faster than any trailer in recent memory: Battleship.
-Kanderson enjoys watching trailers but enjoys even more having you as a TWITTER follower
Well, if you look at it right these trailers give an interesting message: PA3 means that the camcorder will always be with us, just like our parents, or our past. Apollo 18 is space travel, which is fancy, and our future. The Thing is the unknown, the being hiding inside our own skin. If you change the dashes in 11-11-11 to 0's, in binary to text that stands for "Û" which obviously is the "and number to won nine colons" which is what my grandfather used to say about how healthy he was. Don't be afraid of the dark is about the fear of abandonment, such as when your parents would leave you alone in the dark. Final Destination 5 is about fear of death and how death happens to everyman. So, the final message is "Your past and present will lead to the unknown, but trust in yourself and stay healthy because soon you will be abandoned and die." I like this article. Two thumbs up!
My wife likes horror movies, and we go to see them, even if bad. Her philosophy on it is this: horror movies are, at best, scary, and at worst, funny–even more so than most comedies, which tend to be just moronic. So yes, we will see Final Destination 5, if not for the not-so-unintentional comedic value. On another note, I remember seeing Paranormal Activity, and I thought "Hmmm, this whole shakey-cam- in-the-dark-thing, where have I seen this before? Oh yeah, the Blair Witch Project! Duh!"
I was hoping you were going to hit "Grave Encounters" which is a send-up of this goof-tastic show called "Ghost Encounters" only in the horror film we see the himbo-host lose his mind when all hell breaks loose.
As for Battleship, I look forward to your dissection of the first "nautical disaster" of 2012.
I've personally renamed "Battleship" as "Sailors & Aliens".
… Is it me or does Bloody Mary look like the creepy people the main character sees after putting on the Super Specs in the Are You Afraid of the Dark episode The Tale of the Super Specs?
(like 20 years later and I'm still trying to keep it spoiler-free.)
I stopped reading when I realized you were going to be negative about PA series as a whole. I like the series, so we obviously have very different tastes. I am sure there will be more movies that leave little to the imagination and have much bigger budgets to keep you satisfied.
Did anyone freeze the "Don't be Afraid of the Dark" trailer at 1:36?
Not so scary when they're creepy little fuzzy things…then 2:24 comes around…
Also I will see the Thing out of loyalty to Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
Correction, the Thing trailer does the pulling people into darkness three times.
I love horror movies, but I hate horror movies. My imagination gets the best of me. This post was brilliant. I saw the best part of all these movies, and I will be able to sleep tonight! Thank you!
I don't want to believe that bloody mary was the entity that was harassing them all this time. I think that it's just the demon playing around with them, but of course they don't notice it. Plus, they can completely remove this scene from the movie. They've done it with other films and their trailers in the past. Enjoyed your article lots though, and I can't wait until you crucify that "Battleship" trailer.
As a big fan of horror movies, I think you've hit the nail right on the head. Thank you sir.
@Kyle Anderson
It isn't that I cut myself off from differing opinions. I simply know what I like, and I have heard many people crap all over PA and Blair Witch. I personally love both of those films. They show you nothing but give you enough to let your mind conjure the rest. For example, I loved the first half of Jeepers Creepers, but everything after the reveal was dreadful to me.
So crapping on those types of movies is hardly unique to you, but I was able to ascertain that our tastes were very different and I would probably disagree with most of what you said. Generally, I would have left the page and said nothing. However, I was irked by hearing, I guess, one too many people crap on PA. There will always be Saw and Final Destination movies for those who like blood, gore and to see new and interesting ways to kill somebody, but let me have my little imagination movies.
P.S. I don't want you to get me wrong though, that PA3 trailer does look awful.
I usually hate it when people bitch about movies they haven't seen yet but unlike others, I can tell your at least joking about it.
People think the PA movies are scary because it manages to make them jump. To be honest, who are we to judge what's scary and whats not. Some people are afraid of snakes while others are of heights. I wouldn't say their good movies but I watch them because they tend to be a good laugh with friends whenever someone jumps and I like the feeling of being uneasy and waiting for something to come out at me in a movie. If a movie has kept me entertained for the duration of the film, it's done it's purpose.
Apollo 18 was supossed to be direct to video earlier this year I believe but was only pushed back because a studio picked it up much like The Last Exorcism was. The movie looks like an okay rental. I love the tagline though.
I loved Carpenters the Thing and the makers said they were only going to use a little CGI but you can clearly tell when they guys face is going to split open, It's going to be full direct to video CGI. I love Mary Elizabeth Winstead though.
The other films I don't care about. I might see Final Destination 5 but it looks like it's shot the same way the last one was which was horrible. Everything was just too bright and full of CGI.
Ugh I should have proofread that last post. I missed some punctuation marks and used thier instead of they're. Oh well.

Wine List on an iPad
"We're not trying to take away the personal touch of a live sommelier," says Jack Serfass, owner of Naples Tomato, "but enhance the guest's dining experience."
Diners will have a choice at the Italian fine-dining restaurant, where servers will still provide a classic printed wine list or offer the IPad programmed with the full list. The server also can help the diner navigate the computer's offerings or demonstrate the program briefly, then walk away to allow the guests to search it on their own.
A tech background
Serfass has a background in software development and helped design the program that allows users to choose a wine from the 550-plus bottles on the restaurant's list based on how they want to choose one. The restaurant's menu is programmed in along with the extensive wine list, and databases include Robert Parker's and The Wine Spectator ratings.
"The diner can match a wine by food, a varietal, a flavor profile, a price point -- or they can say, 'I want to look for wines with a rating of 90 points or above,'" Serfass said. "It's up to them."
Computer cracks the code
The IPad choice is meant to smooth the wine choosing experience and eliminate the sometimes intimidating sommelier, Serfass said.
"For the last several years, we've employed several sommeliers and tried to do staff training to educate the servers about the wines on our lists -- and we'll still do that. But we never really felt we had cracked the code as to how to give our wine its proper showcase and take our diners to the next level in exploring the list.
IPad idea started with birthday gift
Serfass came up with the idea when he picked up his daughter's 16th birthday gift of an IPad and tried it out. "I thought to myself, this would be amazing to use for a wine list." From there, he contacted software developers he had worked with in the past and came up with the user-friendly searchable databases.
He hired some well-known wine experts to help him with the recommendations that are programmed in to match foods and wines and specify flavor profiles. "I can't say who they are without first getting permission," he said, "but they're well-known in the industry and work for large companies." They also helped him fill in holes in the wine list, recommending varietials and eliminating duplicates.
The response among those who've tested it has been positive, he said, even among older diners who haven't grown up with technology. "I think that's changing -- grandparents are Skyping now and texting -- they're adventurous, and most are embracing the technology."
Serfass is now franchising the 5-year-old restaurant -- a new one is opening in Stamford, Connecticut, in 2011. He said more than 230 people have expressed interest in opening others around the country and in Florida, specifically on the East Coast, but plans are still in talking stages.
As for the IPad program, he's planning to offer it to other restaurants and take it national and eventually release it as an "app."
Other software releases are possible, he said. "It's got a lot of potential. Customizing menus or using it to specify dietary restrictions -- there are all kinds of ways to use this. We'll be exploring more of these once we get this up and running."

The projected crest of the Red River at Fargo, N.D., has dropped a half-foot, which is good news for a city braced for flooding.
The National Weather Service revised its projection Friday to show the Red at 37.5 feet above the flood stage by Sunday morning. That's down from an earlier forecast of 38 feet.
Spokesman Mark Frazier says models suggest water levels should decline slowly but steadily after the crest, though flooding from the river could continue to threaten homes and roads much of next week.
He says it's doubtful that another flood this large will happen in the Fargo area this season, though heavy spring rains could cause temporary bumps because the land will remain saturated for a while.

I can't believe November is already here! The school year has progressed fairly well for me [or as well as can be expected for a second year teacher] and my little beasties are preparing for their winter concert. Costuming-wise, I recently purchased my first serger and have been putting it to good use. I hope all of my DeviantART friends are doing well and looking forward to the holidays!
I will be attending Anime USA in Crystal City, VA in a few weeks and thought I might post my costume schedule, since everything seems to be fairly concrete:
Friday AM/PM: "Mechanic Jumpsuit" Lavie [Last Exile] - NEW!
Friday PM: Bellatrix Lestrange [Harry Potter]
Saturday AM/PM: Amano Terra [FFVI] - NEW!
Sunday: Ema Skye [Phoenix Wright]
There's also a slight possibility of Suki hopping into my luggage. ^__^
Please let me know if you'll be attending so that I can keep an eye out for you! I'm very shy, but I love meeting new people and making connections, and conventions are the best place to do so!

Hi, actually, you wouldn't have to compile m0n0wall at all, since it is essentially just PHP scripts around a very minimal BSD-install (of course, that combined makes it much more :)).

Yooper In Training
Stealerships at their finest
I was on my way to the gym from work and saw a lifted XJ sittin on the rocks at the dealer I got my truck from....figured I'd pull in and take a look. It's at Szott Chrysler/Jeep on M-59 in White Lake.
Black 01 XJ, 78k miles, 5-6" lift, 35" BFG ATs, Mickey Thompson Classic IIs, 8.25 rear, ProtoFab front winch bumper, sh1tty side exhaust, etc. Nice lookin XJ, but nothing special. Bottom was bedlined and seemed like it was done to hide the rust that was bubbling through. I pull up by it, get out, and start lookin at it. Within 15 seconds the sharks catch my scent and here comes the used car salesman. He comes up and the conversation goes something like this: Him: Hey how you doin today? I'm Doug. Me: Hi, I'm Sean. I've already got one bigger than this, I just saw it driving by and thought I'd check it out. Him: Oh....ok. Me: Nice lookin Jeep. (though it really wasn't all that great) Him: Yep, it's a nice one. Only 78,000 miles. Me: Not bad. Just outta curiosity, how much you askin for it? Him: $11,900 Me: (as I try not to laugh) Alllllright. Typical BS small talk, I make it very clear that I've got one better and know what I'm talkin about, more small talk, then he realizes he's not gonna get away with BSin me much. Him: So is the lift for this thing really $4,000? Me: Ha! Umm....lemme look. I look, just a shortarm lift, coils, leafs, shocks, 2" t-case drop. Poorly repainted everything. Me: It's worth $1000 tops. Him: Oh. Interesting. Me: Yep, it's just a standard issue Cherokee lift. Him: I'm new here, so I don't really know much about it. Me: It happens. Him: So are you at all interested in this? Me: Nope, just figured I'd stop and look as I was driving by. I've already got one and I need to save up for a trailer to get it back up to school. Good luck with the sale though. Him: Thanks. Think we'll have any luck selling it at this price? Me: Honestly, no not really. The price is high for the Jeep itself, and you probably won't get anything out of the mods on it. You'll probably actually lose money cuz of that. Not as much demand for something like this. Him: Really? Me: Yeah. Maybe you'll get lucky and find someone who wants a lifted daily driver just to stand out. Most people who want a wheelin rig want something cheaper, and older, plus they'd rather build it themselves. Him: Oh yeah? Me: Yep. Maybe you'll get lucky and some high school kid who wants a big Jeep and has mommy and daddy paying for it will come by and talk them into it. That'll probably be your best bet. Him: Think so? Me: Yeah, there's a pretty small customer base for stuff like this. Well good luck. Have a good one. Or if you don't wanna read all that.....he believed an EBay issue 6" lift was worth $4000. Good ole dealerships. |

(Except during black powder season, then the customers become so stupid that they actually make gun shop lackies look smart.) |

$50 billion later, taking stock of US aid to Egypt
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak meets with President Bush Sunday in Crawford, Texas.
Amid fresh fighting by US forces in Iraq, Sunday's meeting between Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and President Bush at his Texas ranch serves as a reminder of America's deep involvement in this other key Arab nation.
Aid is central to Washington's relationship with Cairo. The US has provided Egypt with $1.3 billion a year in military aid since 1979, and an average of $815 million a year in economic assistance. All told, Egypt has received over $50 billion in US largesse since 1975.
The money is seen as bolstering Egypt's stability, support for US policies in the region, US access to the Suez Canal, and peace with Israel. But some critics question the aid's effectiveness in spurring economic and democratic development in the Arab world's most populous country - a higher US priority after Sept. 11, 2001.
"Aid offers an easy way out for Egypt to avoid reform," says Edward Walker, the US ambassador to Egypt from 1994 to 1998. "They use the money to support antiquated programs and to resist reforms."
Egypt's economy is deeply troubled. Unemployment has climbed to 25 percent, foreign investment last year dropped to a 20-year low, and until recently the currency was losing value on a weekly basis. Rather than helping, American aid is "depressing the need for reform," according to former Ambassador Walker.
Meanwhile, the Mubarak regime is inching towards political reform and democratic pluralism at a pace so slow that many question the sincerity of the government's pro-democracy rhetoric.
In the past, issues like democracy and economic reform were of secondary concern to policymakers looking to shore up a friendly government. Support for Egypt jumped after it made peace with Israel in 1979.
However, US policy has changed since 19 hijackers demonstrated that bolstering stable, pro-American, but undemocratic regimes in the Middle East affected America's security. The ringleader and four of the 9/11 hijackers were Egyptian.
In 2002, the US National Security Strategy articulated a new aid doctrine, saying that money should go to "countries whose governments rule justly, invest in their people, and encourage economic freedom."
