You're in Hell: English Are Cooks 2p!ArthurxReaderYou're In Hell: The English Are Cooks"In Hell, the English are cooks, the Germans are police officers, the French are engineers, the Italians are bankers, and the Swiss are lovers!"You lay on your couch, watching the Sci-Fi channel. You and Arthur were supposed to go have lunch with each other today, but he suddenly cancelled it at the last minute. Why did he cancel the date? Did he lose interest in you? Did he make other plans? Just thinking about it made you tear up a little. Suddenly, you heard your cell phone ring.You wiped the salty tears off your face and picked up your cell to see that it was Arthur calling. Your excited that he was calling you, but at the same time you were still sad and mad that he cancelled the date. You cleared your throat and answered the call. "Arthur!" You said, trying not to sound like you just got done crying, "Why...why did you cancel our date? D-do you not like me anymore?" Your voice cracked a little as you started to cry again."Oh,

Today you had to wake up extra early, and not being a morning person you were in a not so chipper mood. Later in the day you had a regular check-up with your doctor, and being the owner of a Bakery you had finally found some time to squeeze one in. You were fortunate to say your business was a success, but also unfortunate to say that left you busy and under a lot of stress. Especially when it came to the holidays. You grimaced at the thought as you stepped out of your car. You gave a little noise in response to the cold air that rushed around you, with it becoming fall the air had become to get slightly chilly. The only thing you were wearing right now was your pure white chef coat, the sleeves rolled up to your elbows, matching pants, and your (f/c) converse. You praised yourself though as you remembered to wear a tank

ALFRED!'A loud thud was heard when Alfred hit the ground, after he had tried to "fly" like "super heroes" do. He then started to cry, clutching his arm. Oh, this was just an ordinary day for you, being the teacher of these stubborn, cheeky six-year-olds.'Miss _____...!' Alfred cried, reaching out for you. 'My arm!'You sighed and rushed over to him, picking him up as you got there. You checked his arm, only to find out it was perfectly fine and that the boy would only be suffering from a bruise for a couple of days.'Why can't I fly?' Alfred asked you, tear
Jealous!AmericaxReaderxEngland- That BackfiredAlfred slung his arm around your shoulder and grinned. "The hero's here to save his princess from the bad guys!"You giggled and set down your broom. "Oh yes, please, Hero, save me from the merciless dust bunnies!"Alfred karate chopped the air a few times, trying to act like a ninja."Oh my! What a wonderful ninja!" You joked.Alfred took the broom and dusted away the bunnies 'epically' and took you in his arms, holding you close to his chest. "Those evil dust bunnies are gone now, Princess. The only thing the Hero asks for, is a simple kiss," he said in a dramatic tone.You playfully smacked his wrist and hugged him. "You pull this every day, how am I supposed to take you seriously? You're such a tease,""Well," he took your face in his hand, "What if I was serious?"You blushed slightly. "Y-you're acting like Francis,"He let go you of you but still smiled like an idiot. "Hey since you're finally done with all your cleaning, why don't we go celebrate tomorrow? We could go roller-ska
Italy Brothers: Part FourIt's been few weeks since the Italy brothers were exchanged at our school and I wouldn't have made better friends with another pair of brothers. We spent a lot of time together at school and outside of school. I've gotten to know Lovino and Feliciano a lot better and I consider them my closest friends at the moment. They really take the time to talk and listen to me. I've always thought people didn't cared what I said or thought. Not that I care what they say or think about me but still. It's one of those things where I know my opinion doesn't matter to some people. I've never been a person that people automatically think to talk to if they need advice or have a problem. Now with the Vargas boys, that's all changed. They make me feel important to this world.I was walking to Art class with Lovino, like what we've been doing everyday, and he was making me smile as always. He poked my hand quickly which grabbed my attention to look at his face. He looked a little embarrassed."________,

There was no way in hell he was going to sleep… No dreams for him, no sir! So he grabbed an action movie and popped it in before settling on the couch with his coffee.About halfway through his movie, Alfred started to feel a little hungry. Not to mention he needed some more coffee so he could stay awake. Stretching, Alfred made his way to the kitchen, but when he entered he was that little monster sitting next to the coffee maker. "Didn't _______ take you to bed?"The demon didn't answer, it just giggled and stared at him. Alfred suppressed a shudder, 'It's fine, just ignore the thing and it wont bother you…'So, ignoring the hell spawn that was staring at him, Alfred refilled his cup with the blessing that was coffee. But just when he was about to take a sip, he

Close Tweet0 Share0 Comment0 Share0 Share0 Stumble It0 Print0 More Planet Futbol Tim Howard to take one-year break from U.S. national team Photo: Martin Bureau/AFP/Getty Images The U.S. men's national team will spend the next year without veteran goalkeeper Tim Howard as he takes a break from international play. by Grant Wahl Twitter Email Posted: Thu Aug. 21, 2014 U.S. World Cup standout Tim Howard is taking off the next year from international soccer, U.S. Soccer announced Thursday, and my initial reaction is pretty straightforward: OK, he's earned it. Howard is 35, and he's coming off an outstanding World Cup in which he almost single-handedly kept the U.S. in its round of 16 game against Belgium with a preposterous 15 saves (FIFA amended the initial 16-save tally after the match). Howard has 104 caps and 55 wins in his international career, the most for a U.S. goalkeeper. He has given plenty to the cause over the years, and given that goalkeepers can stay in their prime longer than field players, there's every reason to think Howard can still compete for the No. 1 spot at World Cup 2018. Planet Futbol American goalkeeper Tim Howard is publishing a book about his life. As Tim Howard garners more fame, he increases staunch Tourette advocacy by Brian Straus 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More Howard spoke at length with U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann about the decision, and one of the things Howard would like to do is to spend more time with his children, who live in Memphis, Tenn., and whom Everton manager Roberto Martínez has given him permission to visit during international breaks. "Having played overseas for the last 12 years and missing out on spending time with my family, making this commitment to my family is very important at this time," Howard said in comments released by U.S. Soccer. "I am grateful for the willingness of both Jurgen Klinsmann and Everton manager Roberto Martínez to afford me the opportunity to spend time with my kids. It's the right decision at the right time. Jurgen has always been up front with all the players in saying you have to earn your place, which is something I agree with, so I look forward to coming back next fall and competing for a spot." Tim Howard steps away from USMNT Tim Howard is stepping away from the USMNT until September of 2015. SI's Grant Wahl explains who might be next in line for the goalkeeper job. Howard, who will suit up for Everton to face Arsenal on Saturday, will be available for selection to the national team again starting in September 2015, with the start of World Cup qualifying and the combined Copa América set to take place in 2016. And given how Klinsmann works, Howard will have to earn the top spot again, which is hardly a bad thing. Competition for starting spots is always good on a national team, and one of the hallmarks of Klinsmann's tenure has been the increased internal competition at every position on the field. Now Brad Guzan, the 29-year-old Aston Villa keeper, will get the chance he has been craving for a long time, an opportunity to stake his claim as the U.S. No. 1 between the posts. "We had a very good and productive conversation," Klinsmann said. "I totally understand Tim's situation. He was very straightforward and honest in his approach, and I admire him for that. He has a wish to take a step back to take care of his family, and we came to the conclusion that it's absolutely fine that he takes time off from international soccer until after next summer's Gold Cup, and then we re-evaluate. I told him as long as he is the same Tim Howard that we always see performing well, he will be welcome back with open arms and right back competing for a spot. He knows that he has to prove that he deserves to be back. "This gives us a huge opportunity to see Brad Guzan and Nick Rimando going forward and fighting for the No. 1 spot. We have young talented goalkeepers with Sean Johnson and Bill Hamid, who have been brought along the last couple years, so this may give them a chance here and there to get some game time. Always when somebody steps aside for a moment, it gives an opportunity for the next ones in line. " The timing for Howard's decision is simple: Next week the U.S. will announce the roster for its first post-World Cup friendly, which takes place on Sept. 3 in Prague against the Czech Republic. A mostly European-based squad is expected, including a few younger faces, according to a source with the federation. (It remains to be seen whether the roster will include Jermaine Jones, who hasn't played since the World Cup as he tries to work out a move to an MLS team.) Planet Futbol Landon Donovan puts the finishing touches on another Dos-A-Cero as the USA tops Mexico at Crew Stadium last fall en route to qualifying for the 2014 World Cup. Landon Donovan, Crew Stadium: U.S. icons bid farewell to each other by Brian Straus 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More In the wake of Howard's decision, there will be plenty who note that Landon Donovan took his share of criticism from some quarters for his three-month voluntary sabbatical from the sport in early 2013, including missing an important World Cup qualifier that the U.S. lost. But I would respond to that in a few ways: • If Donovan needed to take his sabbatical it for his own mental health, then it was the right choice, and he'd done plenty for U.S. Soccer over the years. • Howard's leave of absence is coming at the start of a new four-year cycle, not in the midst of World Cup qualifying. Klinsmann knows what he's getting from Howard, and if we're being honest, the only (semi-)important event for the U.S. men in the next year is the CONCACAF Gold Cup next summer. Let's see how Guzan or Rimando does in that tournament. It was Rimando who backstopped the USA to the title in 2013. • How a coach treats his players in any sport should always be a case-by-case decision, and to act like every player should be treated the same is naïve. Howard was the U.S.'s best performer in Brazil, and he's earned the right to take the next year off from the national team.

The Connecting Edge Website Launches To Inspire Engineers To Design High-Quality Products
Nov. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- UBM DeusM (
www.deusm.com), the integrated marketing services arm of UBM, and UBM Electronics (
www.ubmelectronics.com), the daily source of essential business and technical information for the design engineering and electronics industry's decision makers, today launched
The Connecting Edge (
www.theconnectingedge.com), a new online community devoted to inspiring and empowering engineers to design high-quality products.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121105/SF06159LOGO)
"Design engineers are constantly challenged to deliver on time, on spec, and on budget," said Kathy Astromoff, CEO of UBM Electronics. "We're delighted that TE Connectivity supports UBM Electronics' goal of scaling engineers' tacit know-how on implementing connectors successfully."
Long-time technology journalist and former design and applications engineer Martin Rowe has been named Editor in Chief of The Connecting Edge. Rowe was most recently Senior Technical Editor of Test & Measurement World. His 20-year career at Test & Measurement World and years of experience in the engineering community gives him the technical know-how and journalistic background needed for this demanding task.
"I am delighted Martin has joined UBM Electronics to take the helm of this exciting new endeavour," said Patrick Mannion, Brand, Director, EDN, Test & Measurement World, and Embedded, UBM Electronics. "Few engineers or editors are more qualified to lead the community from within." The new community-based Website will consist of blogs, message boards, live chats, whitepapers, and other educational resources to help readers address the joys and challenges of designing with electrical and fiber-optic connectors. The community will be supplemented by a presence on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. "Connectors, whether they attach to cables or circuit boards, are the often-forgotten link in a signal chain or power-distribution network. Connectors play a critical role in how well an electronic system functions," said Martin. "If not designed and chosen properly, a connector can degrade a signal's integrity or cause a disruption in the delivery of signal power. A connector failure can be a disaster, and engineers need to know how to properly specify connectors and how to manufacture products with them. Through The Connecting Edge, engineers will share their successes and minimize failures."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I wonder how others would rank them...
I never watched X-Files or Heroes, but I enjoyed the final runs of nBSG and Lost immensely. Both stayed true to the mythos that were set up in earlier seasons. Many people disagree with that, but the clues were there all along.

so many questions asked in one post lol. but meaningful questions none the less, so i'll do my best to answer them.
it's true that our privacy is becoming less and less protected as technology advances, but the law is still in effect. as a civilian, i shouldn't feel threatened by someone else trying to find out more information about me. i believe that's labelled as stalking, or somewhere along those lines - against the law.
i do believe that our privacy is being invaded without our knowing, but really, what can we do? we really have no proof, and we might just be paranoid or something. everything's based on evidence, and if we don't have any, then we'd better not go around falsely accusing others.
we do have privacy, but just not as much as we used to have. that is, before technology came into the world. i'm starting to think - those who actually invent spyware technology meant for the government or something... do they ever think their plan could backfire? because that's what's happening.
but it can't be helped. if we choose to use the internet, then we're risking a hacker hacking into our computers. if we use mobiles, then we're risking the possiblity that someone might track us down. so really, it can't be helped. but you know, i really pity stalkers and people alike them. don't they have anything better to do?

Any of more than 3,500 species (family Arctiidae) of moths, many with furry or hairy larvae called woolly bears. Most adults have a thick body and white, orange, or green wings. At rest, the wings are folded rooflike over the body. The fall webworm (Hyphantria cunea) is a serious pest. The caterpillars construct webs over leaves, sometimes covering large areas with silken sheets. They pupate aboveground in a cocoon made of larval hairs and silk. The Isabella tiger moth (Isia isabella) attains a wingspan of 1.5–2 in. (37–50 mm). Black spots mark its abdomen and yellow wings.

The Scarlet Tiger Moth (Callimorpha dominula, formerly Panaxia dominula) is a colorful moth of Europe and western and central Asia (Dubatalov n.d.). It belongs to the tiger moth family, Arctiidae.
The caterpillars feed mostly on comfrey (Symphytum officinale). The imagines fly by day.
It can occur in rare colour forms, one with yellow hindwings and body and one with extended black on hindwings.
The three morph occurring in the population at the Cothill reserve in Oxfordshire, Britain, have been the subject of considerable genetic study (McNamara 1998).
McNamara (1998) describes how amateurs can rear this species.

Translate this page Arraignment postponed for man accused of sexually assaulting girlsTuesday, August 19th, 2014 Issue 34, Volume 18.
Lionel Arechabala Morones, 47, could face life in prison if convicted of a dozen counts of lewd acts on a child, with sentence-enhancing allegations of forced penetration, and one count of communicating with a minor with the intent of committing a sexual offense. Morones appeared before Riverside County Superior Court Judge Becky Dugan, who rescheduled his arraignment to Oct. 3 after learning that the prosecutor assigned to the case, Deputy District Attorney Amy Barajas, was in the middle of a Advertisement Dugan kept the defendant's bail at $6 million. He's being held at the at the Southwest Detention Center in Murrieta. Morones was arrested last month after allegations of sexual abuse were made by an 11-year-old girl. The child, whose identity was not released, alleged she had been assaulted on numerous occasions over a period of months, according to court papers. During their investigation, sheriff's officials identified a second alleged victim, now in in her early 20s. The woman was allegedly molested in her early teens, going back to 2001. The nature of the alleged victims' relationship to Morones, if any, was not disclosed. 2 comments
I don't think he's a very smart man and I think he is guilty and he hired an attorney. What moron would get him an attorney . ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and I know the other victim. I think he is a sick man! I just hope he get what he deserve!
These sexual predators and child rapists cannot be rehabilitated. No amount of counseling, drugs, pshyco-babble, can fix them. They need to be locked away in a special institution for the rest of their lives on the first offense. No bail, no parole, no nothing. From the point they are first hand-cuffed, they spend every waking and sleeping moment for the rest of their natural born lives incarcerated. And no cable TV, no radio, no weight lifting, no magazines, no books, no computers, no internet, no phone, no doctor, no nurse, no head shrinkers, just four cinder block walls and a thick steel door with a slit in it just big enough to slide a slice of bread through. They never get to come out. No window, no talking to the person in the next cell, no cell mates, just solitary confinement and isolation forever.

St. Francis, Pa. Red Flash (3-8)
@Pittsburgh Panthers (11-1)
Tuesday, December 20
Petersen Events Center
Attendance: 8,325
St. Francis, Pa.
Pittsburgh, PA (Sports Network) - J.J. Moore scored 15 points and grabbed six rebounds, as No. 15 Pittsburgh cruised to a 71-47 victory over St. Francis-PA at the Petersen Events Center.
Dante Taylor posted 14 points on 7-of-10 shooting and pulled down eight boards for the Panthers (11-1), who won their ninth straight game.
"We got off to a really good start," said Pittsburgh head coach Jaime Dixon. "We did what we wanted to do against the one-three-one. I thought we attacked it very well. It was something we prepared for. We outrebounded them by a big number. That is our strength and we wanted to take advantage of that."
Anthony Ervin had 13 points to pace the Red Flash (3-8), who had won three of four after opening the season with six straight losses.
"Coming in here tonight we knew we were up against a really good Pitt team in a great venue," said St. Francis-PA head coach Don Friday.
The Red Flash missed their first seven shots as Pitt raced out to a 13-0 lead. A three-point play by Lamar Patterson extended the hosts' advantage to 30-7 with just under six minutes to go in the first half.
St. Francis-PA played better down the stretch but still trailed 39-21 at halftime.
The Panthers opened the second half on a 10-0 run and their lead ballooned to 31 at 61-30 on a Moore free throw with about 9 1/2 minutes to play.
Pittsburgh shot 50 percent (28-of-56) for the game and committed only six fouls. The Red Flash were limited to 35 percent shooting.

Avoid prejudging students
- Published: 21 Sep 2010 at 00.00 | Viewed: 2,829 | Comments: 0
- Newspaper section: Learningpost
- Writer: Edward Roy Krishnan, PHD
A wise old saying goes, "Don't expect clean water from a well that has just been dug. It takes time for the dirt to settle before one can enjoy the freshness of clean water."
Teachers and parents are always confronted with situations that require them to decide whether or not a child or student needs to be assessed right away or given more time to display behaviours and attitudes that comply with the norm. Typically, non-compliance with the status quo (or norm) is shunned and almost immediately negatively labelled.
Quick solution
The tendency for parents and teachers to engage in systematic diagnosis and labelling of a child is sometimes understandable. But often adults in helping professions like teaching and counselling do not reserve their judgment regarding perceived behavioural, academic or social-emotional differences.
On close examination, I realise that adults do so to reduce the stress involved in having to constantly deal with experiences with out-of-norm students. In other words, dealing with an "unknown" (or not-yet-labelled) out-of-norm behaviour, performance or emotion of a child is more stressful and frustrating than dealing with a tentatively known or labelled condition.
By resorting to labelling, an adult feels less apprehensive about a child's condition and hence is more comfortable dealing with the perceived crisis at hand. As erroneous as this may be, adults are able to discount their roles and responsibilities for a child's out-of-norm experience when the child is labelled as exhibiting experiences that are very different from those of his/her peers.
Believing that a child has an inherently imposed condition that adversely affects his/her learning allows teachers and parents to excuse themselves for failing to remedy the condition and/or situation. This allows them not to be too harsh on themselves. In this sense, labelling is and has been used for the convenience of adults more than to help children to improve and develop holistically.
There are many arguments against labelling children at school or elsewhere. For example, when we label someone, our perception and image of that person are changed. For example, once a child is labelled (correctly or incorrectly) as hyperactive, we expect them to act in ways that are typically associated with a hyperactive individual. We do not care to pause and think of that person as being an individual with different talents, preferences, aspirations and strengths. We choose to see only the features represented by the label itself.
The moment we label someone, we fail to see many attributes outside that label. We deliberately close ourselves from exploring everything else about the individual. In the process, we miss many important characteristics that make up the person's true identity, experiences and potential.
Labelling creates a barrier in the minds of adults dealing with children/students, and most often, these barriers exist only in the mind of the characterising adult. This explains why sometimes children unexpectedly surprise us with their tremendous capacity to create, innovate and problem-solve, especially when our biased expectations dictated otherwise.
Take the right action
Professionals argue that labelling is important to facilitate efficient communication among themselves in an effort to assist an affected child. At the same time, they also acknowledge the ill effects of labelling. We should stop labelling because the damage it causes outweighs the potential benefit. Additionally, any benefit is for the convenience of adults rather than for helping children/students.

T C 310 • Modes of Reasoning: Optimal Geometry in Nature, Art, and Mathematics
Unique | Days | Time | Location | Instructor |
43550 |
TTh |
Knopf |
Course Description
"Equations are just the boring part of mathematics. I attempt to see things in terms of geometry." Stephen Hawking
In many cases, nature finds optimal solutions to geometric problems. For example, among all possible shapes spanning a loop of wire, a soap film always has least area. The hexagonal packing system used by bees in their honeycombs is the most efficient (i.e. least perimeter) way to divide a plane into equal areas. Remarkably, these and other shapes found in physical or biological systems also appear in abstract mathematics as solutions to certain optimization problems. Many of these forms also frequently appear in art and architecture and are regarded as beautiful by many cultures.
These phenomena raise several interesting questions. What does it mean to have a best form? Indeed, is the concept of best even well defined in this context? Can mathematical reasoning prove that something is optimal in a precise sense? What roles do evolution and physical principles play in finding such forms? How and why do various cultures integrate such forms into their patterns of artistic expression?
This course will examine some of the attempts of science to provide rigorous explanations of optimal geometry. Historically, such attempts had both empirical and synthetic (i.e. philosophical or theological) motivations. Some even incorporated ideas that today might provocatively be labeled intelligent design. The course will examine how mathematics can contribute to understanding and explaining optimal forms. In accord with the Modes of Reasoning rubric, we will devote particular attention to the roles of geometric reasoning and mathematical proof in making our explanations intellectually rigorous.
Our studies will be divided into eight units. Each unit will focus on the overarching questions of the course as seen from one topical perspective. These are as follows:
1. What are some possible meanings of optimal geometry?
2. Case study: examples seen in soap films
3. Explanations of optimality: synthetic versus empirical principles
4. Can optimality be proved with mathematical rigor?
5. Examples from biology: patterns and similarity in growth and form
6. Optimal geometry in art and architecture
7. Symmetry: why we see it and why it breaks
8. Topology versus geometry: what is the shape of space?
Grading Policy
The course grade will be based on three components.
o Class participation (20%). This component will assess participation in class discussions and completion of daily "minute papers" brief impressionistic paragraphs written in response to a question raised during class discussion.
o Unit projects (50%). Each topical unit in the course will be accompanied by a project. For example, one project might be collecting digital photographs of optimal shapes found in nature or architecture and arranging these in a poster presentation. Another project could involve research into historical explanations of optimality in addition to those discussed in class. Several will require the students to engage in mathematical reasoning and proof. Although this is not a Substantial Writing Component course, most projects will involve writing short essays (2-3 pages).
o Final exam (30%). This component will assess the students' ability to discuss the concepts and questions encountered in the course in a precise and reasoned manner.
The course will draw on the following sources. (This list may be revised and expanded as the course is further developed. Some readings will be excerpted and included in a photocopy packet.)
o Stefan Hildebrandt and Anthony Tromba, The Parsimonious Universe: Shape and Form in the Natural World.
o Ian Stewart and Martin Golubitsky, Fearful Symmetry: Is God a geometer?
o D'Arcy Wentworth Thompson, On growth and form.
o Ian Stewart, Lifes Other Secret: The New Mathematics of the Living World.
o Kimberley Elam, Geometry of Design: Studies in Proportion and Composition.

Dear The Economist,
Mr. Booker is no match for Mr. Christie. Christie's superior girth and heft is ample evidence that he is the superior creature, a state which speaks to his ability to defend the most valuable feeding grounds, while from Booker's comparatively emaciated appearance it is obvious that his subsistence is tenuous at best, probably consisting of scavenging the remains of Christie's kills after the great animal has eaten his fill. Was the younger Booker to challenge the alpha male in a test of dominance, it is obvious the result would be Booker's defeat and exile from the pack, slinking off in the night while Christie bellows in victory, if, that is, he was not immediately crushed in the initial combat. Either way, it is evident that the only course for Booker to achieve either high political office or access to mates is after Christie's reign has grown weak through old age, or some unexpected misfortune by some debilitating wound such as might be inflicted by a particularly determined Wildebeest.
CHRIS CHRISTIE seems in no danger of losing his re-election bid this November. But for all of his bipartisan appeal, he does have a way of irking Republicans and Democrats alike. Under New Jersey's murky election laws, Mr Christie had wide latitude to schedule an election for the Senate seat left vacant by Frank Lautenberg's death yesterday. Republicans hoped he would choose November 2014, and then pick a Republican to fill the seat until then. Democrats demanded an election this year, and are still hoping Mr Christie replaces like with like in the Senate.
The governor has so far disappointed everyone. While scheduling the election for this year, he has placed it in October, apart from his own election in November, claiming that a later vote might be illegal and that the costs of a special election "cannot be measured against the value of having an elected member of the US Senate". Critics at the very least quibble with that last statement. The cost of a special election and primary is estimated to be $24m (the production of an elected senator for one month is estimated to be worth quite less). A governor so interested in budgetary matters and experienced in consolidating elections to save money might have known this, though Mr Christie admitted he did not.
Many believe the governor's scheduling is an effort to avoid sharing a ballot with Cory Booker, who is expected to be the Democratic nominee in the Senate race. Mr Booker is likely to bring a large following of Democrats to the polls, which could have affected Mr Christie's bid for re-election. Though unlikely to lose, the governor would probably like to romp home in order to set himself up as the most electable Republican presidential contender in 2016. With the Iowa caucuses a mere 31 months away, it's high time candidates started jockeying for position.
The focus now moves to Mr Christie's interim appointment. There is much speculation over who he will choose. But while the pick will affect Senate votes in the short term, it may not matter much in the long run. In research conducted in 2008 Nate Silver found that replacement picks don't have very high electoral success rates.
Senators appointed to fill midterm vacancies have fared rather poorly when it came time for the voters to give them a verdict. Over the past 25 Congresses, there have been, by my count, 49 senators who were selected by gubernatorial appointment in midterm (this excludes cases where a senator-elect acceded to office a few days early to gain seniority on his colleagues, a once-common courtesy that is becoming less so). Of those 49 senators, only 19 — fewer than 40 percent — won their subsequent special election.
...appointees who had significant recent experience as legislators performed fairly well. In seven of the 49 cases, the appointee was a sitting member of the House of Representatives; six of the seven won re-election. Seven others were sitting members of their state legislatures at the time of their appointment; five of those seven won re-election.
Mr Silver suggests two Republican representatives—Frank LoBiondo and Jon Runyan—who won re-election last year in districts carried by Barack Obama. They would likely face off against the popular Mr Booker in a state where Democratic voters outnumber Republican voters by 700,000 and no Republican has won a Senate election in 41 years. It may take some convincing on the part of Mr Christie, no matter which Republican—assuming it's a Republican—he chooses.

This morning started out… wait, wrong, it wasn't morning: it was 2 in the afternoon. Why do I think it was morning? Because my sinuses had started bugging me Friday, and when I turned in Friday night, I took copious amounts of allergy medication that knocked my ass right out. So it felt like morning, as I was still in a bit of a haze, but it was the afternoon. Anyway…
The day started out with a set of roundtable interviews with "Battle in Seattle's" Stuart Townsend, Michelle Rodriguez, Charlize Theron and Martin Henderson. Stuart and Michelle went first, and when they came into the roundtable (with me, Cinematical's Kim Voynar and Reelz Channel's Heather Huntington) they were followed by a town of photographers. This was new to the three of us, as we're normally not doing roundtables while folks take pictures, but what're you supposed to do? Michelle joked that they could take pics as long as they didn't shoot her fingering herself, so I informed them that they could shoot me fingering myself, Stuart said he didn't want to see that, so I offered to let him smell my finger instead. Yeah, this is why I don't do many roundtables, most likely.
Charlize and Martin's roundtable was pretty playful, as they joked around back and forth. She was under the weather, though, so I felt bad that she had to sit and talk to us. Plus, my sinuses were acting up again so I was sitting, arms-crossed, sweating, eyes watering and trying my best not to sniffle, sneeze or cough.
After the roundtables, and some more allergy medicine, I made my way over to the Nasher Sculpture Center to moderate my panel on the New Generation of Filmmakers; essentially all about the the up-and-comers, focusing on some high school programs in Texas and the Mobile Film School. I got there early, and got to see some of Michael Addis, Jewel (yes, THAT Jewel) and Dolph Lundgren (yes, THAT Dolph Lundgren) do their panel on audience influence on films.
On my panel was Garland High School teacher Patty Schubert, Mobile Film School's Lisa McWilliams and teen filmmakers Jorge Arzac and Joe Brittain. While the panel was a bit under-attended (it was 5:30pm on a Saturday right before the closing night film), I felt the panel was extremely interesting, informative and, overall, encouraging. Thanks to curriculum's like Patty, students are learning much about both film history and production, while Lisa's program brings filmmaking to those who may not have thought it possible. I was, and still am, honored that I got to moderate such an important panel, and can only thank the festival for taking a chance on a foul-mouthed film critic who just the night before was picking fights with audience members.
After the panel I made my way over to the opening night film, "Battle in Seattle," and my favorite moment was when festival director Michael Cain mis-named director Stuart Townsend, calling him Stewart Copeland instead. Part of me REALLY wanted the drummer from the Police to suddenly show up.
The film? Full review to come, but I pretty much knew the ins and outs of the WTO protest of 1999 (as I lived up there at the time), so the film didn't have much suspense for me because I knew how everything played out, but I hope it was a solid primer for everyone else though. Best quote from the film: "A week ago, nobody knew what the WTO was. Now… they still don't know, but they know it's evil." Oddly enough, best quote I could come up with after the movie ended too…
After the screening it was closing night party time at the House of Blues with the band the Polyphonic Spree. Previously known for their cult-like robes, the huge band had recently gone in for a more militant look, calling themselves The Fragile Army. This scared me, because it meant the cult of happy was mobilizing, and as the show opened, my fears came true…
There was a giant heart on stage…
The band revealed themselves as a wall of choreographed march moves and sound…
Confetti fell from the sky and it dawned on me that this is what the Nazi rally of Nuremberg would likely look like, had it taken place today.
Band was a fun watch, and played about an hour before calling it quits, then returning for an encore in their original cult robes. At that point I refused to drink anything anyone gave me, for few that the closing night was to be a mass cinematic suicide.
Eventually the band invited people on stage, photographers mostly, and this guy…
Who showed his excitement, leaving me to believe that the cult of the Polyphonic Spree had recruited yet again. Can they be stopped?
Favorite pic: AFI Dallas Festival Director Michael Cain is a busy man. So busy, in fact, that even while rocking out on stage, he manages to take a cell phone call…
My evening ended back at the Filmmaker Lounge for some final Guitar Hero playing. Two challengers stepped up; one at Expert on "Holiday in Cambodia" and the other at Expert on "Knights of Cydonia." How'd I do? The former I beat by 100K points, and the latter was beating me by 20K before I rallied mid-song and beat him by 40K. And thus, my legend remained intact. Serna beat me… but no one else…
Festival awards in 7 hours, and then I fly home. It's been a great experience, and I'll have more to say in my full wrap-up next week (including interviews and reviews). For now, though? Sleep.

Thus began the age of retro rock, the sound of bands that steal from groups that existed B.N., or Before Nirvana. In addition to The Strokes and The White Stripes, acts such as Yeah Yeah Yeahs, French Kicks, The Walkmen, The Vines, The Datsuns, The Libertines, and dozens more roamed the Earth. Each had its own sound, more or less, but all of them -- with their shaggy hair, rumpled jeans, and coy, pasty visages -- could be placed under that one giant umbrella.
Now, the upside of this trend is that, by and large, it produced some great music. Fashionistas or no, Yeah Yeah Yeahs are one fierce trio, and I'll concede the same for Interpol, Franz Ferdinand, Scissor Sisters, and, to a lesser extent, The Killers. But, merely as a matter of timing, Interpol's Antics is the beginning of the end, for it arrives when these bands are truly starting to become caricatures, plastic and prefabricated, and offering no new outlook on the world beyond catchy narratives about hitting the club. I'm not saying that everybody has to be tortured and overwrought, but when a band's thoughts are trained strictly on making it big, its music tends to lack pathos. And while these groups may end up making some snappy, sultry dance rock, it is, at the end of the day, pretty disposable snappy, sultry dance rock, no less contrived than music made by the boy bands and rap-rock stars they replaced.
Once upon a time, Interpol's snooty fashion sense was excusable because it was an anomaly. Now that it's the norm, it's going to get old quick. So here's what I'm willing to bet: Despite its brilliance, Antics will be forever remembered as the album that marked the time when retro rock jumped the shark, going from early-'00s movement to late-'00s embarrassment. We can expect a Creed-like version of The Strokes to show up on MTV any day now. I can expect my fifteen-year-old sister to ask for a set of hoop earrings and some leg warmers for Christmas.
Oh well. At least Kevin and I got in one good road trip with the stuff before it rotted like old fruit.

Meehan says she hasn't experienced any explicit chauvinism from coaches, players, or fellow officials. "I've been really lucky that way."
The biggest obstacle she faces, her father says, is her height. Because most football players are tall (and linemen are tall and wide), some crew positions make it difficult to see everything on the field. And staying out of the way can be a challenge too. "I told her: 'At five-foot-three, do not be an umpire. That would not be conducive to your health,'" Jack says.
Dealing with loud and obnoxious parents is part of her job. And coaches aren't exactly sweet to the striped ones, as she learned well growing up on the sidelines. That part of her story is like a modern fable: the child of a great coach wanting to be a referee, like the offspring of a lion wanting to be a zebra. For decades, Jack stalked the sidelines, eyeing the officials. "Sometimes we discussed things — maybe loudly," he jokes. "If an official is consistent and in position to call it, I've never had a complaint. I'd call them afterwards and talk to them and even asked if they wanted to come look at the game film."
"I saw my dad yelling at officials all the time growing up," Erin says. "I don't break down and cry when I throw a flag and they yell about it."
She's not Jack's only tough daughter. Her sister, "Killer" Kate Meehan, is a professional kickboxer in Tampa Bay.
Erin says it could still take her years to get to the NFL as a referee, but she's already played that role at Dolphin Stadium: Two years ago, when the Dolphins hosted the Jacksonville Jaguars, she was head referee for the halftime youth league game. Jack's mouse pad in Colorado has a picture of her from that day, wearing her white hat.
"They say there are three things polite people should never discuss over dinner: politics, sports, and religion," she says. "Well, I worked for John McCain in college, and I love to talk about it. And I'm always in the middle of a sports conversation."
And religion?
"My religion is basically football."

Should airport tower stay open?
March 20, 2013
After all the fear fanning over the federal budget sequester, most Janesville residents look around and ask, �Where�s the problem?� Well, a potential one would be the possible closing of the Southern Wisconsin Regional Airport�s control tower.
A decision is expected this week on whether the Federal Aviation Administration will close 200 towers to save $600 million.
Could closure of the tower at Janesville�s airport pose safety concerns? Could it hinder economic development?
Reporter Jim Leute provided the latest details in Tuesday�s Gazette.
We�ll share our perspectives in our editorial Thursday.

All the towns people were standing next to each other waiting for the ceremony of the wedding of the two lovers, Sonic and Princess Elise.Tails, Knuckles and Amy stopped in place noticing the crowd of people gather around the castle."Hey, what's going on?" Knuckles asked trying to get a better view of the ceremony."Hmm it sure looks important." Tails said thinking. "I know what this is!" Amy suddenly called out."You do?" Tails and knuckles said looking at Amy.Amy nodded her head and looked up to the sky. "it's the time of love, where two lovers marry and be together forever!" She sighed deeply with small glint of light shining off her eyes.Knuckles shook his head, thinking that amy would be picturing herself with sonic."Come on! Lets go see who is getting married!" Amy said with glee and ran towards the crowd. Tails and knuckles looked at each other before following amy.
