A few months ago, the British government denied entry to Geert Wilders, the Dutch parliamentarian, who was scheduled to show his 15-minute film about Islam, Fitna, which intersperses selected excerpts from the Koran with clips showing violent acts by radical Islamists. Nazir Ahmed, a Muslim member of the House of Lords who was born in Pakistan, raised a hue and cry. The British Foreign Ministry collapsed and kicked Wilders out as soon as he got off the plane. He was, the British border agency said, a threat to harmony and public security.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton arrived in Mexico on March 25 for a two-day visit that will include stops in Mexico City and Monterrey. The State Department website posted a statement: "While in Mexico, Secretary Clinton will discuss a broad range of bilateral and international issues of mutual interest, including cooperation under the Merida Initiative." The Washington Post reported that in addition to anti-drug cooperation, Clinton's visit will also include discussions on trade, energy, and the upcoming summit of the G-20 nations.
North Korea Adamant on Missile LaunchWritten by Super User
On March 24, the North Korean government warned the UN, the United States, and Japan against issuing sanctions in retaliation for its planned launch of a communications satellite between April 4 and 8. The communist nation's foreign ministry issued a statement published by the Korean Central News Agency that said the imposition of UN sanctions would violate a September 2005 six-nation agreement on mutual respect.

We are in love with our new rug! I was a bit reserved ordering the rug online without seeing it in person first, but it surpassed my expectations. It is much softer than I imagined, and even more pretty than I thought it'd be! It arrived at our house within 3 days... I was so excited to get it so quick!
LOVE, LUV this rug! I wish I would have bought this a long time ago. I have a 60 lb. dog with long black hair and this is the perfect rug, It vacuums up nicely AND this rug does not shed one bit!!!!! Also the rug always looks neat. As much as I try to go with color, when it comes down to it I am a beige, white, cream girl and then just have a few pops of color on the walls!
I really like this rug. In the past I have purchased rugs that are this plush and every time I vacuum the shedding seemed to never stop. This rug doesn't do that. It is a low pile BUT feels great underfoot. I do not even have a rug pad under it yet. Overall I am very pleased~

Hajipur/Patna: Proprietor of a private engineering college in Bihar`s Vaishali district on Sunday alleged that former JD(U) MLA Munna Shukla had demanded Rs two crore from him for the party`s `Adhikar rally` at Patna on November 4, police said today.
Pataliputra Engineering College Director Santlal Yadav has lodged an FIR at Bhagwanpur police station against Shukla for allegedly demanding Rs two crore to raise funds for JD(U)`s rally next week, Superintendent of Police (SP) Upendra Kumar Sinha said.
Yadav alleged that Shukla, presently lodged in Muzaffarpur central jail, called him on mobile phone on October 26 and demanded the amount while threatening him with dire consequences if this was not met, the SP said, adding that an investigation was going on in the matter.
Shukla, husband of JD(U) MLA Anju Shukla, had successfully contested Lalganj assembly seat on the party`s ticket in November 2005 polls. He was denied another run in the last assembly polls after his conviction in the murder case of former Gopalganj district magistrate G Krishnaiah.
In Patna, the state unit JD(U) president Vashishth Narayan Singh said he was gathering details about the extortion demand made by the former party MLA.

Saturday, December 18th 2010, the Senate passed H.R.2965 Dont Ask, Dont Tell Repeal Act of 2010. While the majority of Congress voted with America and our soldiers, Senator Hutchison chose to vote her own personal hatred. DADT does not simply keep soldiers silenced. It mandated the removal of any honorably serving soldier who happened to be lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. Join us on Tuesday Dec, 21st outside of her offices in Austin, Houston, San Antonio and Dallas at 12 PM Noon as we celebrate the end of DADT and tell the Senator that enough is enough of her putting her own ideology over the will of the people and over the Constitution.
PLEASE HELP YOUR VOTERS! We are life long hard working people who are becoming homeless because the lack of work. Please vote for the UI extension and y'all are wrong about the unemployed being lazy scum who take advantage of the system. It is your duty to create the jobs, isn't that the way we got out of the last depression? I was republican and thought you understood the basic needs of your State. We will even dig ditches (and that's even with a degree…yes I did go to college compared to what you want to believe). We are about to loose our home because of this and I know more people are too, do you not have any compassion? My husband is an "American Tradesmen" and there is no work. Y'all went on a vacation for the 4th of July and now I find out that this may not be passed until y'all get back from another vacation? THAT IS SICK and INHUMANE!!….I pray that humbleness, compassion, and understanding fills your heart and quick because you are about to loose big.
Ms Kay is clueless in her fine home and job. Her record speaks for itself. No wonder she couldn't get to the TX governor seat. This lady needs to be voted out as soon as possible. Texans read her record and decide for yourselves, she is NOT what we need in Washington.

This piece of trash is a globalist she works in the interest of the BANKS (Federal Reserve(A PRIVATE holding company BTW)/IMF/World Bank) that have destroyed this country.
She was an attendee at the Bilderburg meeting just as old guv'na GOOD-HAIR Perry who sold our TOLL roads to SPAIN "CINTRA" @ Bilderberg……. you globalists are disgusting,don't worry the conflagration is coming and the New World Order will die!
Dear Senator Hutchison,
S.3520 needs to be passed immediately. There are 15 million Americans who are "unemployed through no fault of their own," and who are also frantically attempting to find new jobs that do not exist. The majority of these 15 million have a family dependent upon their income, so that increases the number to possibly 30 or even 45 million Americans who are in imminent danger of losing everything. When this happens, the financial and moral ramifications for this country will be dire indeed. I'll say it again— S.3520 needs to be passed immediately! Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
You are a disgrace to your country and should be embarrassed to have the UNITED STATES in front of your title.4th of July is upon us-it reminds us of history and how the people can come together to make a difference.I hope you and your family meet the same outcome as the 15,000,000+ unemployed.You turned your back on the Citizens by playing games and stupid antics.Assistance needs to be offered to ease the minds of the families and allow continued dignity no matter the cost. You spend OUR money like water and the American people MUST and SHOULD be priority one!
"As good government is an empire of laws, how shall your laws be made? In a large society,inhabiting an extensive country,it is impossible that the whole should assemble to make laws. The first necessary step, then,is to depute power from the many to a few of the most wise and good."
John Adams, Thoughts on Government, 1776
Obviously we dont have the few wise and good in the senate-but we have the power to change that.
Before you go invoking the Constitution try reading it and doing some research on the men and vision which influenced it! I am so sick of these Neo-Cons trying to twist the spirit of one of the most sacred documents of human (not just American) history.
Thomas Paine (not that you would even know who he was) said "The cause of America is in Great measure the cause of all Mankind," Common Sense, 1776
When John Cornyn held the position of the Attorney General of Texas his office was absolutely no help to help to me while I was trying to recover the more than $18K my exhusband owed me in back child support for my oldest daugther. Now that you and he are US Senators, neither of your offices are of any assistance. I am now raising two young children and have been unemployed for more than a year. The $392 I draw each week in unemployment is the only reason we are not homeless! I have worked, paid taxes and social security for more than 30 years. I am 25 years away from being able to draw social security, for which I am sure I will never see a dime due to government's overspending and I'm not talking about overspending on unemployment extensions! I have also been a lifelong Republican but not anymore. You and John Cornyn will both receive a nay vote from me come re-election time and hopefully from everyone else I can convince to do the same!

If you are apart of the American unemployed or share the same views as the unemployed and want to have a peaceful march on Washington to show that we do need our unemployment or in support of unemployment, email me at firstname.lastname@example.com. This has to be done, a peaceful stand needs to take place soon to make a difference. Before a lot of Americans lose the little bit that they do have. We didn't ask for the economy to be this way and it is not our fault that we can not find jobs all at the same time. We worked all of our lives and now that we need help, the people in congress is saying no! We are the ones that help pay for wars, national disasters, and the congressmen paychecks. Now they are telling us that they cannot pass a bill so we can feed and house our families. What is more important the "Oil Spill" or the unemployed and their children. I don't think so, it's time for a peaceful march, email me at firstname.lastname@example.com, to make a peaceful stand now.

Lastly, I know that I might not appear to be the most credible of minds in manners of formal politics nor the most informed. I fail to see a concrete reason why I should not be heard. I am going to college, I am working on becoming the best possible person I could be. I have my fair share of regrets and terrible mistakes as much as the next person, but I am working on making up for them. To get a point, I would appreciate it greatly if you could provide me with some sort of feedback here, or if desired, by other means(we can work out those details on a more personal level). Please excuse my bad grammar in my comments, I am limited to a certain amount of characters.
I have so much more to talk about, but sadly my homework calls. Thanks for your time Senator.

A youth that mostly finds education boring. A youth that would rather help themselves than strangers. This could even be said about adults in this country as well. I know that this idea might seem farfetched (if not down right ignorant) to many people as their imagination has been crushed by our "way of life". But just imagine the amount of funds to be appropriated across the board. Any education crisis, gone. Health care can be free. Energy can be made and used better. Environmental concerns can be tackled. The change that this idea could bring us would be unprecedented. Hopefully, you might see a glimmer or hope in this idea. I just want nothing but a better life for everyone world-wide, and if some people can't see this then I hope they will in the future. Now myquick second topic, I noticed on your bill section that you are supporting bills that would temp. ban certain apparel production(?), if you could provide me with more information on these bills I would greatly appreciate it.
Good day Senator, Allow me to touch on one of the comments that stuck out to me personally, first; specifically HR-45. I feel that this bill wouldn't be entirely wrong (and excuse my naive idea) if only it were to rid the firearm fully. For what is future peace if we still deem it necessary to arm ourselves in every corner? People feel fear partly because we are conditioned to do so by countless numbers of sources. While on the other hand, people are "forced" to commit crimes because of a flawed system across the board; i.e. insurance, education system, healthcare. We should be trying to help one another, not kill or even rise above. We should remain fully equal; no greying. We could even push this bill at an international level, should it go further as to banning all weaponry. Our government alone spends tremendous amounts of money on weapon systems upgrades as well as new weapon technology. This of course is spun off by some media as ,"cool". The direct effect of this is a mad youth.
Let this be a lesson to you: http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/03/texas_sized_lesson_the_new_ton.html
CFR and Bilderberg member: That alone makes you one of them, and not one of us. It's time for you to go. You don't represent the interests of Texans by any stretch of the imagination. You are part of the problem and don't have the power to stand up to your 'Masters.'

So instead of forcing people to purchase affordable health insurance which is clearly far more important than car insurance we have the emergency room as our concept of basic care. Well that is the heart of the problem. For all of those people that go to the emergency room and cannot afford the procedures, the cost gets passed on to those of us who already pay for health insurance. The liberty to think for myself has allowed me to rationalize that it is far more logical for every American to purchase health insurance rather than pass on the cost to everyone else. It would also be nice to know that in the case that I or someone in my family has cancer or a long term illness loses their job, they will be able to maintain coverage in the future despite their condition. So you are right it is ludicrous to compare it to car insurance because the cost of a human life and the necessity of affordable basic care is far more important than any material item.
I am from Texas and would like you to support the Internet Preservation Act, H.R.3458.
Your husband has cancer and you don't support fixing our broken healthcare system?
These bills are not anti-constitutional by any stretch of the imagination. It should be a right, not a privilege to have affordable healthcare coverage. There are far too many lies out there about what these bills will or will not do. Americans deserve quality healthcare and should not be denied coverage due to pre-existing conditions. How sad is it that as a country many of us accept the fact that when people are sick and cannot get coverage due to a pre-existing condition, we have come to just accept it.
If these bills are unconstitutional, then the same argument should be made about being forced to have car insurance, or wear seat-belts but nobody makes that argument because it would be ridiculous. The same should be true for basic health insurance. Those without coverage are driving up the costs for the rest of us.
The voters will hold all of you accountable come Election Day for selling THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA TO China by passing and letting your other brethren to pass bills we cannot afford. I think the first spending cut should be in politician's salaries. However, I am just one man with only one vote but I am not the only one who feels this way and you all in DC will reap what you sew come Election Day.
Our beloved country, land of the free and home of the brave, is disappearing right before our very eyes! Would ANYBODY have even DREAMED 10 years ago, that our politicians would even be CONSIDERING some of the bloated, anti-constitutional bills they have been PASSING?? The US dollar is on the brink of collapse, China and many other debtors are bailing on it, and the FED just keeps on printing!! This senator has helped to usher in inflation, corruption, greed, socialism, marxism, and ultimately communism. If we continue down the road we are headed, we will be a police state in less than 3 years. The USD will be non-existent; our sovereignty dissolved with the stroke of "progressive" (which is code for communistic) pens….all for the good of the collective. There IS no right or left! There is either AMERICAN, or anti-American!!

American needs Health Care Reform with a Public Option. Insurance companies have a monopoly and needs competition to drive costs down. Congress has had over 40 years to get it right. We need it now.
I can't believe you voted for HR2454. Let's vote her out in 2012. We don't want you for Govnor either. You have been in Washington too long!!!
Sunnydayz, I couldn't have said it better myself. There is enough government interference in our lives without having them coming into our homes.
I am very concerned about my 2nd amendment right to bear arms. Our society is fraught with criminals and the safety of our family is in our own hands. I am concerned that my right to protect myself, and my children from an intruder is about to be taken from me lest, I agree to unannounced government searches upon my home. Neither choice is acceptable. Please help us fight to protect our right to protect ourselves. We do not need more government. We need more people in office to protect the rights we already have. I am counting on you to be one of those people.

Jeff Scrima has returned from Harvard.
For the second time in a year, the Waukesha mayor attended a leadership seminar at the prestigious Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass.
Last summer, Scrima attended the three-week Senior Executives in State and Local Government program that was designed to help public officials learn more aboutleadership, negotiations, public/private partnerships, cooperative governance, behavioral decision making and microeconomics.
This year's program was a five-day seminar titled Leadership for the 21st Century: Chaos, Conflict and Courage at the John F. Kennedy School for Executive Education.
According to the online brochure, the program required participants to be actively engaged in the classroom, in small groups and in individual reflection.
Its website says the program "is a provocative seminar that introduces a set of conceptual frameworks and a unique teaching method designed to challenge fundamental assumptions about how you can courageously and effectively exercise leadership and authority during hard times.
"It challenges you to look beyond formulating quick technical solutions that act as band-aids to deeper organizational challenges, and instead asks you to examine yourself and the competing commitments and loyalties in your organization or community."
The program explored a wide range of leadership strategies and ways of exercising leadership.
The program cost $6,900 that covered tuition, housing, curricular materials and most meals. Scrima said $3,677 of that fee was covered from the Mayor's Office Conference and Training Budget. He said he paid for the rest.
Last year's three-week program cost $11,450 and like this year, $3,677 was covered by the Mayor's Office Conference and Training Budget. The rest was covered by Scrima.
"I'm thankful to go out and learn from the best in order to bring new ideas back to Waukesha for our community," Scrima said.

I've wanted to play Will Wright's next game, Spore, for years. I first wrote about Spore way back in February 2007, proudly and naively stating that "our wait will soon be over." Well, I was right if by "soon" I meant "in another year and a half." Spore has been in development since 2000, and it finally has a reliable release date: September 7, 2008. Let's hope the wait has been worth it.
Spore is a video game unlike any other. Following in the tradition of Wright's SimCity and The Sims, it's a... READ ON
There's a special place in my heart for weird Garfield parodies, but today's subject really raises the bar for weirdness. The Garkov comic strip activates my Nerdy Spidey Sense, as it uses a Markov chain process to create the absurdist dialog. For those of us who don't know/care what a Markov chain really is, let's just say it's a mathematical process that takes an existing body of text (say, all the dialog from Garfield comic strips) and uses it to create new text that almost makes sense.

George Dyson returns to TED with a seventeen-minute talk explaining the origins of the digital computer -- in hilarious style. Briefly starting with Leibniz's machine-based calculus proposal from 1679, Dyson takes us on a humorous ride through early computer development, with tons of anecdotes from early computer engineers' notebooks (including scans of all sorts of amusing notes). (If you can't see the visuals well enough below, try downloading the full-size MP4 file). If you like history or math,... READ ON
I've never solved a Rubik's Cube. I'm that guy who takes the stickers off puts them where I want them in order to get it over with. (Much to the consternation of any legitimate puzzle-solver who might try to use my cube in the future.) So it was with some amazement that I learned that Rubik's Cube solutions are an area of active mathematical research. There are scholars out there working on ideal cube-solving algorithms, and major progress is being made towards "God's algorithm" -- more on that in a... READ ON
Danny Hillis is best known for his Connection Machine, a massively parallel supercomputer that led to breakthroughs in computational science and parallel computing. (It also was the subject of Hillis's book The Connection Machine, which was a highly technical but fascinating version of his thesis paper on parallel computing. If you want the only halfway mind-blowing version, check out The Pattern on the Stone.) Hillis later led R&D at Walt Disney Imagineering, but in my book the Connection Machine was... READ ON
Howard Rheingold gave a TED talk in 2005 discussing the nature of cooperation, and how it contrasts with classical views of competition as the driver of progress. Discussed: The Prisoner's Dilemma (and how he suggests eBay solves it), Tragedy of the Commons (and how humans create social structures to overcome it), The Ultimatum Game, Wikipedia, Bittorrent, and finally Rheingold's proposal for a Cooperation Project to embrace a cooperative form of economic progress.

The other day I was reading ESPN's Jayson Stark's review of the strange happenings in the 2007 baseball season when I came across this nugget.

On Tuesday we looked at Jessica Hagy's Indexed -- a blog in which diagrams are a source of humor. Today we turn to Le Grand Content, a short film inspired by Hagy's work -- using a series of diagrams and slightly rambling narration to comedic (and poignant) effect. Filmmakers Clemens Kogler and Karo Szmit explain:
Le Grand Content examines the omnipresent Powerpoint-culture in search for its philosophical potential. Intersections and diagrams are assembled to form a grand 'association-chain-massacre'.... READ ON
My friend Dave pointed me to this brilliant weirdconverter. When people used to ask me my weight I used to reply 137 pounds. That's all in the past, though (the English system is so last year. And also all the years before that.). From now on I will say one of the following:
"How much do you weigh?"
"Roughly 30.07196 chickens. Or, you know, 1.2454 Jennifer Anistons."
Of course, if your friends don't use the Aniston as a measure, there are other options.... READ ON

I have always been captivated with dogs, other animals, nature and photography. I prefer taking candid shots as opposed to studio shots as I believe a candid photograph captures the dog's and other animals true personality and great personal charm! I enjoy photographing all dogs, regardless of breed, show quality, purebred or otherwise as well as other animals in their natural habitat. I have always had a special connection with dogs and other animals and take pleasure in sharing a mutual affection and friendship with them. I am able to bond with the animals effortlessly. Over the years I have had the pleasure of owning several dogs, including the magnificent and devoted Dobermann Pinscher. I have participated in training dogs in...

D-Link's Boxee Box
Local Media, Boxee Style
Boxee always has handled local media in two ways. Users can access their filesystems directly and peruse their video collection folder by folder. Where Boxee really shines, however, is with its media library function. If files are named correctly (basically with the name of the movie and year), Boxee downloads genre information, cover art, ratings and other metadata. It's possible to browse your media collection like you'd look through movies at the rental store. Because Boxee downloads metadata, you even can sort your collection to find that perfect popcorn companion. Granted, the media scraper isn't perfect, but the Boxee Box gives you the ability to identify media it can't figure out automatically.
Go to www.linuxjournal.com/video/review-boxee to see Shawn's video review of D-Link's Boxee Box.
Shawn Powers is the Associate Editor for Linux Journal. He's also the Gadget Guy for LinuxJournal.com, and he has an interesting collection of vintage Garfield coffee mugs. Don't let his silly hairdo fool you, he's a pretty ordinary guy and can be reached via e-mail at email@example.com. Or, swing by the #linuxjournal IRC channel on Freenode.net.

If some fool wants to target a turret over me or an ally, so much the better for my side. If they pop during an FAW/Torpedo Volley, not a big deal, toss another one out.
If ship devices were the biggest complaint I had about this game, I would take that in a heartbeat.
Well, fools are players and NPC's because they get targeted as soon as you drop them. It's like as soon as you drop it, BAM! It's blown away. If they garner that kind of attention then they need to be more durable to count as cover fire.

Here's The Scoop ...on Peg
"You're not going to put that in your column!" Well, I guess it's nice to have a reputation.
Those words rang in my ears numerous times during my years of authoring Here's The Scoop. My mother, Margaret "Peg" Sweeney, spoke them often. I'm sure others will echo similar sentiments about not wishing to be a column topic, but Peg will no longer be trying to keep her name and potentially embarrassing incidents out of this space. Peg passed away on Saturday at the age of…
Captured on film
The other day, I was scrolling through my MacBook looking for photos to show someone regarding a particular topic. I finally found the pictures, but it took awhile because I often don't label photos once I transfer them from the camera.
The hungry season
When it comes to whitetail deer, the term "wild animal" hardly seems appropriate. Sure, these creatures live in nature, but that seems to be end of the "wild" description.
Deer, as anyone who lives in these parts can attest, are pretty tame specimens. Cute, too, for the most part. They aren't quite on a par with dogs and cats, but they sometimes seem kind of like pets — and are treated that way by some people who enjoy having deer visit their yards.
Must be that time again
It's official. I've crossed the annual line — I'm hating firewood. Well, "hating" is a strong term, but my relationship with all things bark-covered is certainly strained.
This happens every almost spring, of course. After nearly constant wood burning since October, the romance with the fireplace has cooled. It's OK, though.
Leather season is here
It's nine degrees this morning. The stiff breeze shaves quite a few additional degrees off the thermometer in terms of wind chill. Despite temperatures near 50 over the weekend, there's still a thick blanket of snow all around.
The winter trudges on and there's little for us non-snowbirds to do about the situation, but look ahead to better days. And read about baseball.
A 50 percent chance
I have been overrun, so to speak, with feedback on last week's column regarding my recent slipper purchase. That topic really picked up steam — a slipper-y slope, if you will.
Apparently, lots of readers have a deep connection to their in-house footwear of choice. I had no idea when I wrote about this, just how passionate folks are regarding slippers. It's actually a bit scary. I mean that in the good way.
If the slipper fits
One of the reasons that I prefer to buy things online is because I don't really like hanging out with big groups of people in places such as shopping malls. It's kind of weird, then, that I often rely on others to help me shop — based on their reviews.
In recent years, I find that I'm letting the shopping experience of the general population guide my spending habits. I recently accumulated enough credit card bonus points to put me within purchase range of a decent pair of slippers. That's good. And bad.
There's no place like Home Goods...
A little chapter in local history will soon come to a close when Dorothy Maffei steps down as owner of Home Goods of Margaretville (HGM).
In a small town, businesses come and go. In fact, the "go" enterprises somehow seem to outnumber the arrivals. As opposed to mega-malls, shopping in rural areas usually offers a much different type of experience. Stores are often unique. Owners usually know your name.
Frosting on the...cupcake
The waiting, as they say, was torture. The sweet variety.
I could detect the tempting aroma of the cupcakes baking a mere 20 feet away, but was not allowed a sample. Not even a nibble. This may seem harsh, but the initial description of the setting doesn't tell the entire story. Cupcakes and I should never be left alone in a room. Throw in a half-gallon of milk and all bets are off.
Rocks in my head
It's probably a good bet that I'm not the only person who logs on to the Internet each day to get a full update of Kardashian mayhem.
OK, so maybe that's not entirely true, since I'm not really sure how many Kardashians there are and why, exactly, the folks who deliver the stunning Yahoo Home Page "news" think that anyone cares. We don't. Not one bit. Stop this madness, please.
I know, it would be simple enough to change my Home Page, but there are usually just enough non-Kardashian (K-folks) stories on there to keep me from doing so.

"From the beginning of the writing process through creating the drawings, and then scanning the individual frames it probably took about three weeks in total. But the results are wonderful."
O'Hare set the film it in the 1950s because he thought that era would suit the grainy, black and white style of the film, and also because he wanted the film to have an older narrator to emphasize the main character's sense of regret. "It's all about the stupid things people do to f*** up relationships because they get jealous, and really that's what it's about, so the time period is secondary," Mulligan said.
As for the usual rostra of celebrity guests on the night, Mulligan is understandably reluctant to be drawn on them.
"If they're in town they come down," he says. "I believe HBO's new show the Boardwalk Empire is having its launch around the same time as the Wee Craic night so it's possible there'll be some overlap between us.
"Plus the Wee Craic stars like Devlin will be staying at the upscale Hilton Garden Inn in Tribeca so it's quite likely they'll all meet and greet each other."
Behind the scenes now the Wee Craic shorts night creative group have been finalizing the line up with the help of their selection committee and though festival programmers they have longstanding relationships with.
"With the shorts a lot of the process is about timing," Mulligan adds. "You have to worry about releases and distributors and you have the most talented short film makers between New York and Ireland.
"Thankfully there's dozens of them. The other thing that people don't realize is that the Irish government actually has a scheme to fund short works that assists and promotes new Irish work. That's great for us too because it means there's a talented pool to choose from each September when we do this event.
"There's also a two hour open bar sponsored by Stella Artois and Jameson," Mulligan adds with a laugh. "If that's not enough to get the Irish down I don't know what is.
"For $20 bucks you're going to see really award winning films, Colin Devlin, and from eight to 10 o'clock you're getting complimentary whiskeys. Come on lads, buck up, what's not to like about that!"
There are 150 tickets in total (many have already sold) to the Wee Craic shorts night. The after party and live music takes place from 8-11 p.m. at the Tribeca Cinema Lounge. For tickets visit www.ticketweb.com or call 646-549-1349.

Check Out Kat's DIY Dia de Los Muertos Sugar Skull Makeup for Halloween
I did my own sugar skull makeup, Dia de Los Muertos style for a Halloween party that I attended this weekend. Check it out!

In 'The Monster Squad,' a gang of monster movie-obsessed adolescents end up waging an epic battle against the ghouls they idolized after they learn that Dracula, Frankenstein, et al. are real.
With Halloween fast approaching, it's time to get your home into the swing of things. Don't worry—you still have plenty of time to convert your domicile into a spooky haunted house (or just a scary home that kids will think twice about approaching during their quest for candy). Here are five fairly simple, but clever ways to get your apartment or house in ghoulish shape for Halloween, and any one of these ideas would do a witch, or decaying zombie, proud:
The 2013 North Main Christmas Parade will be held on November 24th beginning at 3:30 pm. This year's parade will begin in the Civic Center poarking lot and end at at Garvin Park with a sneak peak of the Ritzy's Fantasy of Lights (to benefit Easter Seals)
The museum's seventh annual event will take place on Saturday, November 9th beginning at 9:00am.
Ah, Halloween: the one time of year when it's completely appropriate to scare the fecal matter out of loved ones and friends. If your goal is to make sure children can't sleep at night, a disturbing urban legend is just the ammunition you need.
Bring out your four-legged friends and join the City of Evansville for the First Annual Howl O' Ween at Oak Hill Cemetery benefiting the Spirit Medical Fund.
Dennis Lalime is going to have a tough time showing his (unmade-up face) around town.
From the goofy to the grotesque, there's no shortage of campsites caught up in the Halloween fever during the month of October.
Sure, Halloween is all about the kiddos. Opening the front door to the neighborhood wee ones (yours or someone else's) dressed in their trick-or-treating finery is a sugar rush unto itself.
With Halloween right around the corner, it's time to start getting serious about your costume! Why not go as Katy Perry from her official music video for "Roar?"
The Centre'd on Kids Trick or Trick candy giveaway was a HUGE success! I brought my son Jr. along with me to help pass out some treats. Check out some of the great costumes and all the happy faces!

Enormous flowers on a Meyer branch
I am pretty familiar with citrus flowers. I have Meiwa kumquat, Limequat, Thompson grapefruit, Owari Satsuma and another unlabeled satsuma, as well as a Meyer lemon. The Meyer has a water sprout with enormous leaves, not from below the graft. One of these water sprouts had a few huge flowers, bigger than any flower, even the grapefruit. What is up with that?
A qualified yes, as to whether they will produce "different" fruit; the water sprout IS the parent plant, so the fruit will still be a Meyer; however, it will typically be larger and with a thicker/rougher skin.
I would trim the water sprout back to the level of the canopy as Patty suggested, even if that means sacrificing the fruit.
Eve, you're better off starting your own message thread, instead of tacking onto this one, but in general, citrus do this on occasion. When they're extremely happy :-) Some cultivars tend to send up water sprouts more frequently that others (lemons). They often happen in young trees, or older trees that are being revived. It they are not providing symmetry, then trim them back to the trunk. If they are providing a nice symmetry to your tree, simply cut them back to the canopy edge. They will settle down and become normal branches. There is some argument that the attachment of a water sprout at the trunk is weaker than a normal branch. I have not found that to be the case with my trees, nor can I find any supporting documentation for that theory, and I am still trying to research that notion. For now, if the water sprout suits the tree, then it stays. If not, I trim it at the trunk.

Church Relevance's list of 2015 church conference recommendations has been updated to over 80 ministry conferences throughout 2015 and 2016. It is not too early to start planning which ones you can attend.
The 11th edition of the top church blogs list is out.
But it is no longer called the top church blogs. In fact, the name, the criteria, and the metrics have all been revamped for the better. The previous topical scope prevented too many great blogs from being included.
It is now 300 blogs, which includes 157 new additions to the list!
The 9th edition of the biannual Top 200 Ministry Blogs is out!
We've received great feedback on how to improve the list, and we've made a few tweaks to improve the quality and reduce confusion.
Studying best practices from other church websites can give you ideas that can improve online communication, avoid costly mistakes, and even yield greater spiritual fruit for the Kingdom. There's certainly a place for such pragmatism, but only if it goes hand-in-hand with listening to and obeying God. To help give you ideas and inspiration, we've compiled a list of 40 Great Church Websites.
Are there any that we didn't list that you think should be included?
Church Relevance has compiled a list of 493 churches to watch in 2013. It is by no means a comprehensive list, but it is great place to start for ideas, inspiration, and studying ministry techniques.
And if that's too overwhelming, we've also curated several much shorter lists featuring the churches best known for size, growth, influence, innovation, and church planting.
Church Relevance's average visitor reads 24 books each year, but the United States publishes 899 new books each day.
To help you sift through the clutter, we're putting together a list of the Top Books for Church Leaders. We're starting off with 14 works by early church fathers and we will be growing the list with more recent titles in the months to come.
Happy reading!
It's that time of year again! The fall edition of the top 200 ministry blogs comes with some notable changes.
Visit the top 200 ministry blogs list to learn more and to discover some new gems worth adding to your daily reads.

"50th meeting" European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages (ECRML)
The Committee of Experts of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages (ECRML) will hold its 50th meeting at the Council of Europe in Strasbourg from 17-20 March 2015. To mark the occasion of this anniversary meeting, a commemorative event will take place on 17 March 2015 and will provide an opportunity to take stock of achievements and point the way forward in order to continue and improve the protection and promotion of regional and minority languages in Europe. It will allow those present to share their knowledge and experience and to identify trends and challenges. The impact of the Charter will be presented and illustrated by examples of good practice. One of the "founding fathers" of the Charter will give an "eyewitness account" of its conception. Read more

Linguistic and cultural diversity are assets to European societies. The right to use one's mother tongue is a basic human right.

Strasbourg, 14/1/15 - The Charter is the European convention for the protection and promotion of traditionally used minority languages and applies in Sweden to Sami, Finnish and Meänkieli. The report, drawn up by a committee of independent experts, which monitors the application of the Charter, acknowledges the high level of commitment and continued efforts of the Swedish authorities to protect and promote their regional and minority languages. However, the level of protection varies according to municipalities. The regulations concerning both the Minority Act and the Education Act on mother tongue instruction should further be clarified with respect to what kind of support the municipalities are obligated to provide.

Critics Consensus: It struggles to enliven its uneven script, but Stuck in Love boasts enough winning performances from its solid veteran cast to offer an appealing diversion for rom-com enthusiasts.
Movie Info
Three years past his divorce, veteran novelist Bill Borgens (Academy Award (R) nominee Greg Kinnear) can't stop obsessing over, let alone spying on, his ex-wife Erica (Academy Award (R) winner Jennifer Connelly), who ignominiously left him for another man. Even as his neighbor-with-benefits, Tricia (Kristen Bell) tries to push him back into the dating pool, he remains blind to anyone else's charms. Meanwhile, his fiercely independent collegiate daughter Samantha (Lily Collins) is publishing her first novel while recoiling at the very thought of first love with a diehard romantic (Logan Lerman); and his teen son Rusty (Nat Wolff) is trying to find his voice, both as a fantasy writer and as the unexpected boyfriend of a dream girl with unsettlingly real problems. As each of these situations mounts into a tangled trio of romantic holiday crises, it brings the Borgens to surprising revelations about how endings become beginnings. (c) Millenium … More

Critic Reviews for Stuck in Love
All Critics (41) | Top Critics (8) | Fresh (23) | Rotten (17)
Highlighted by standout performances by Greg Kinnear and Lily Collins, this film has it all, some humor, some tears, and a lot of truth.
A little heavy-handed at times, "Stuck in Love" is saved from the maudlin pile by its stellar cast.
[VIDEO ESSAY] A well blended cocktail of familial connections, aspirations, and separations, "Stuck in Love" is a complex romantic comedy that keeps on giving even when you think it has run its course.
[Boone's] semiautobiographical film is a confident, at times wonderfully nuanced, and often well-paced rewrite of his own parents' divorce.
The story, while unsurprising, is also quietly satisfying. Everyone comes to accept some hard truths about themselves.
Cliched literary trappings come together in "Stuck in Love," but the final product feels more like a footnote than a finished work.
Although "Stuck in Love" is an indie film, it hews slavishly to Hollywood formulas right down to its comfy Thanksgiving Day ending. It's all so easy, isn't it?
Like many films paying lip service to the world of writing and publishing, Stuck in Love is in a big hurry to get to the good parts
Just like most romantic comedies (though this is more of a "rom-dram"), Stuck In Love. believes nothing is worthier than refusing to give up after you've been rebuffed in no uncertain terms.
Worthwhile for its fine performances, including the best work that Greg Kinnear and Jennifer Connelly have done in quite a while.
Set in a world of resplendent beach homes and scrubbed-clean towns, populated by genetically blessed people who wouldn't know a real concern if it smacked them in the face.
Writer-director Josh Boone populates Stuck in Love with smart characters breaking from emotional holding patterns of varying contours.
The movie's not especially urgent or inventive, but it has small moments of grace ...
But all too soon, Boone's questionable taste level and constant, very self-conscious but none-too-deep emphasis on the what, how and why of Writers becomes oppressive and extremely precious.
Immensely likable but a little too tidy in its emotional payoff, the movie benefits from its charming, empathetic ensemble.
Starts sit-comish but as it becomes more complex it takes on a somewhat literary tone.
Audience Reviews for Stuck in Love
Despite the great soundtrack, here is a frustrating movie that shows every sign that it could have been great, with a lot to say about moving on and opening up our hearts to something new, but the payoff is contrived and doesn't ring half as true as what came before it.More

What a sweet movie! Loved all the characters, the story line, the heart, and the simplicity. I love Greg Kinnear- he has a certain charm to him always! This movie was lovely, genuine, and I absolutely loved the ending message.More
Super Reviewer
A story of first loves and second chances.
Great Film! The film is technically well-balanced between slick Hollywood production values and a relaxed indie look. The casting was great, as was the plot and story line. It was a touching story, where despite the indiscretions of a married couple, you had them rooting for each other to find their way back to each other and to bring their family together. The movie went fast and even though you hoped for a happy ending, you weren't quite sure how it was going to turn out. I won't spoil it, but the ride to the end was worth it. It is a cute, summer drama that is worth checking out.
Meet the Borgens. William Borgens is an acclaimed author who hasn't written a word since his ex-wife Erica left him 3 years ago for another man. In between spying on Erica and casual romps with his married neighbour Tricia, Bill is dealing with the complexities of raising his teenage children Samantha and Rusty. Samantha is publishing her first novel and is determined to avoid love at all costs - after all she's seen what it has done to her parents. In between hook ups, she meets "nice guy" Lou who will stop at nothing to win her over. Rusty, is an aspiring fantasy writer and Stephen King aficionado, who is on a quest to gain 'life experiences'. He falls for the beautiful, but troubled Kate and gets his first taste of love and a broken heart. A tale of family, love (lost and found), and how endings can make new beginnings. There are no rewrites in life, only second chances.

Chloe Sullivan Should Be Introduced in Superman Secret Orign
View Single Post
July 3 2009, 06:47 AM
Location: The End of Time
Re: Chloe Sullivan Should Be Introduced in Superman Secret Orign
As far as Allison Mack's likeness goes, comics and other media have been side stepping that issue for decades. One of the biggest examples is
The Real Ghostbusters
which changed the character appearances to sidestep likeness rights disputes (mostly from Bill Murray if I remember correctly).
But has it been conclusively stated by official sources that Allison Mack is the problem? I would have thought DC is avoiding the issue because Chloe Sullivan is a creation of Miles Millar and Alfred Gough. If DC was to fully insert Chloe into the Superman mythos, then they would be stuck paying those guys extra for every appearance the character makes in any media from then forward. There's no way around it in the modern creator's rights culture, and the bean counters at DC probably don't want to even start an expense like that when they don't feel they have to (especially given the battles they've already got with things like Superboy).

This "Plimsoll Mark" is painted on the port side of Balclutha and named for Samuel Plimsoll, an Englishman who fought to pass the Merchant Shipping Act of 1876. Before this law, many ships were dangerously overloaded and many sank. These "coffin ships" claimed the lives of many sailors. More...
