Richard Pryor Live On The Sunset Strip
It's a given that Richard Pryor is one of the most influential stand-up comedians ever (along with Lenny Bruce or George Carlin or Mort Sahl or whoever you want to put on a short list). His feature length performance film, Richard Pryor Live On The Sunset Strip, along with Richard Pryor Live in Concert a few years earlier, are still the benchmarks for stand-up comedy films. Sunset Strip may be slightly stronger because of the incredible autobiographical detail and honesty. He might have been a train wreck in real life, but on stage he was completely self-assured - without being cocky - and utterly honest about his own shortcomings, not to mention his takes on sex and race. Besides being hilarious, this film stand as a documentary about the mind of Richard Pryor and the unique way he interprets the world.
Like Bruce and Carlin, Pryor started off a TV-friendly, joke man who evolved when he found himself, got dangerous, got dirty, and embraced the counterculture. On The Sunset Strip is almost like an autobiographical one-man show; he talks about growing up in a brothel, how going to Africa changes him, working for the mob, but, most revealing, his cocaine abuse. In an almost too honest moment he discusses his famous "blowing himself up" incident. At the same time he still hits some great standards like the differences between men and women and black and white people. He also does his down & out character of Mudbone, for what he claims, thankfully, is the last time.Continue Reading
To Kill A Mockingbird
One of the great American books, To Kill A Mockingbird, makes for one of the great American films. Horton Foote (Tender Mercies) compactly adapts Harper Lee's dense semi-autobiographical novel. Now an adult, Scout Finch recounts two summers in her childhood during the Depression in a sleepy little Alabama town. She and her brother Jem befriend a boy named Dill (based on Lee's lifelong friend, Truman Capote), while her father Atticus, a righteous lawyer (righteous, in an admirable way), defends a black man accused of rape. Scout learns many simple lessons and the film, with such simple qualities, packs a gentle emotional wallop.
This was 1962 disguised as the Depression. An innocent '62, pre-assignation of JFK and MLK; pre-Vietnam War making the front pages; pre-Black Panthers and "black power." When the naïve still believed that one crusading white man could potentially save a black man's life. And though in the end Atticus doesn't actually succeed (thematically it has something to do with why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird), it has enough of an impact on a child that she could grow up to be a great writer. Though in real life, unfortunately, Harper Lee would never write another book again, instead becoming Capote's babysitter (Lee, along with Emily Bronte and John Kennedy Toole, would be one of the great one-hit wonders in literature history).Continue Reading
The King Of Kong: A Fistful Of Quarters
Going back to Grey Gardens in 1975, so many successful and fascinating documentaries have been about misfits in their exotic sub-culture world. Through Gates Of Heaven, The Cruise, American Movie, and Hell House the viewers are given a glimpse into a unique world that they may not have otherwise known exists. Not only do these often oddball worlds exist, but the people who live in them are completely passionate or even obsessed with maintaining their status in them. One such "world" is the competitive classic arcade game scene. It started - and maybe peaked - in the '80s but according to the fascinating documentary, The King Of Kong: A Fistful Of Quarters, it still continues and the nerds who occupy this world are obsessed with it.
Like many amazing documentaries, The King Of Kong: A Fistful Of Quarters has a plot so complete and ready-made, with a clear hero and a villain, it gives the impression that it could only have been concocted by a screenwriter. But no folks, it's real.Continue Reading
Altamont Now
Ever since Marlon Brando's Johnny in The Wild One was asked, "What are you rebelling against?" and he answered, "What have you got?" youth rebellion has been a mainstay in movies, making for some good, bad, and often subversive films. From Rebel Without A Cause to Wild In The Streets to Rock & Roll High School and Over The Edge -- all films that have elements of screwing the man. Altamont Now, directed by Joshua Brown, is more of a spoof of the genre but still keeps the spirit alive.
Like the late '60s films of Peter Watkins (Privilege, Punishment Park) or Haskell Wexler's Medium Cool, Altamont Now has faux-documentary elements and mixes in a lot of old B-roll using numerous film sources. Unlike the acid pace of those films, this has a more modern, hyper visual and editing style that helps contribute to the movie's anarchy. The film opens a la Blair Witch Project, reporting to be lost footage; luckily that angle is never really pushed (unlike the recent fake doc Catfish where the directors are still doing press claiming the obviously staged film is real). The "this is lost footage" claim is actually making fun of an already stale storytelling element. We never for a second believe that it works as a documentary; when only two people are in a room, there always seems to be a third person in the room working the camera.Continue Reading
The Day Of The Jackal
I often recommend The Day Of The Jackal to people and they always come back and say the same thing, "That was great. What are some more movies like that?" I'm hard-pressed to answer because there are none as good of the type (maybe in the general ballpark: State Of Siege, Z, Black Sunday, The Manchurian Candidate - I don't know). The Day Of The Jackal is the best assassination thriller ever made. Ever. Not to be confused with the Bruce Willis sorta remake Jackal, which sucked. This, the original version based on the great novel of the same name by Frederick Forsyth (The Dogs Of War), is a taut, textbook example of how to make an exciting, sophisticated, suspense film with a cast of non brand-names and without having to rely on overblown action sequences.
After France ended their occupation of Algeria their military was left with a number of pissed off killers (the O.A.S.) who wanted revenge against their president, Charles de Gaulle (see the brilliant docudrama Battle Of Algiers for further study on that subject). So they hire the world's greatest assassin - code-named "The Jackal" (Edward Fox) - to kill him. Traveling all over Europe, the film meticulously follows the small triviality of how The Jackal puts together his plan (the goal is not only to shoot and kill de Gaulle, but to escape alive, without getting caught). He's British, but can slip into any country; he's an enigma and sleeps with both men and women if they fit into his plan. The film details everything in his plan, including the ways he obtains forged passports and even has specially designed bullets made.Continue Reading
How The Grinch Stole Christmas
Based on a book by Dr. Seuss (Theodore "Ted"' Geisel), this little 26-minute television special has been a holiday tradition since it first aired in 1966. But it's more than just a Christmas cartoon. Besides being a moving story about the power of love, it may be the greatest animated (long) short ever made. It really is a tribute to three unique talents coming together: the prose of author Dr. Seuss, the voice of actor Boris Karloff, and the vision of the legendary animation director Chuck Jones (co-director Ben Washam was also a very respected animator and a long time collaborator with Jones).
The Grinch is a grumpy, old, green, Scroogey creature with a heart "two sizes too small" who lives with his sweet little mutt, Max, atop a mountain overlooking Whoville (though his actual color varies on different DVD versions). In a spat of bitterness listening to the Whos prepare for their Christmas festivities, he decides to ruin their Christmas. Disguised as Santa he descends on Whoville in a sled, with poor Max dressed as a reindeer and forced to pull the sled down the steep, snowy ledge. Then he slithers around the homes of the Whos and steals everything Christmas related, including trees, candy, gifts, and even burning fire logs.Continue Reading
Rocky III
On paper the first Rocky may be a better film than Rocky III - and don't let the fact that Sylvester Stallone would become a muscle-headed goon persuade you that he didn't once have talent. The original Rocky was a moving film and Stallone gave a nice performance - though not sure if it deserved to win the Best Picture Oscar over All the President's Men, Network and Taxi Driver - but still, it was a film to admire. Rocky II was a dull follow up that stuck to the formula. Rocky III sticks to the formula and gives it some twists. In terms of sheer entertainment it's a knockout (that's a boxing term, get it?) and at a compact 100 minutes it's a fast and easy ride.
Bill Conte's infectious "Rocky Theme" opens the film and a recap of the final fight from the previous movie as Rocky predictably finally beats Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers). Then BAM! It's the rockin' sounds of Survivor's "Eye Of The Tiger" and a montage of Rocky living the celebrity life while busting heads in the ring. Meanwhile a new Mike Tyson-type of up & comer, Clubber Lane, is demolishing opponents (played very well by Mr. T). After a wild charity match against a pro wrestler, Thunder Lips (Hulk Hogan looking like a giant), Clubber publicly pressures Rocky into meeting him in the ring. Clubber trains hard and Rocky trains soft. Before the fight Rocky learns from his manager, Mickey (Burgess Meredith), that he's not as good a fighter as he thinks he is - since fighting Apollo those were all tomato-cans he has been beating up on. And then in a twist to the Rocky formula Clubber gives Rocky a real whuppin', so bad in fact it kills Mickey and Clubber becomes the new champ.Continue Reading
Citizen Kane
Just because Citizen Kane is often cited as the greatest film ever made or the most important film of all time and just because you might have had to watch it in an "intro to film" class does not mean it's homework. Unlike other landmark filmmaking oldies such as Birth Of A Nation or Battleship Potemkin, Citizen Kane is not a snoozer - it's really amazingly entertaining. (Actually the "Odessa Steps" scene in Battleship Potemkin is a rather gripping piece of editing, but the rest of it is rather boring.) With his first film, Citizen Kane, the twenty-something wunderkind, Orson Welles, took on the Hollywood establishment (as well as William Randolph Heart's publishing empire) and changed film, but most importantly made a fun, fun movie that still holds up quite well today.
The complicated plot of Citizen Kane famously mirrors the life of publishing tycoon William Randolph Hearst. As a boy Charles Foster Kane is taken from his mother when he inherits a small newspaper. Eventually he grows up to be Orson Welles. The film follows him from a cynical kid fresh out of college who thinks it would be fun to run a newspaper, to old age when he dies a miser and an extreme treasure hoarder. But what really made Citizen Kane revolutionary in 1941 was the way the story was told (besides Gregg Toland's groundbreaking camera work). It opens with a long Newsreel documentary after Kane has died which tells his life story (though a press eye view). On his deathbed his last word was "Rosebud" and" a group of reporters sets out to find what or who was Rosebud. They interview the key people in his life, each telling different versions of Kane's story, in flashbacks, from their perspective.Continue Reading
On Her Majesty's Secret Service
Until the more recent Daniel Craig Casino Royal, it would have been easy to call On Her Majesty's Secret Service the strangest James Bond film ever. This, of course, is not counting the original Casino Royal, a mostly unbearable, unfunny disaster. But like the original Casino Royal, On Her Majesty's Secret Service almost plays like a spoof with its bizarre villains and story-lines, but it's much more than that. It has some of the best action sequences of any Bond film. It has the most character driven story and romance (until the more recent Casino Royal). It's considered a bona-fide cult film. And even with Sean Connery on a one-film hiatus, it deserves its more recent status as maybe the best Bond film ever.
On Her Majesty's Secret Service is the sixth film in the Bond series, it's said to follow Ian Fleming's 1963 book as closely as any of the films have. But it's most famous as the film Connery sat out. A big shouldered Australian ex-car salesman, George Lazenby, with little acting experience, replaced him. One of the new Bond's first lines of dialogue is, "This never happened to the other fellow," referencing what, at the time, was an abrupt shift in actors - something we have become accustomed to since. Lazenby would prove to be one and done as Connery would return for the weak Diamonds Are Forever and then years later repeat the role one last time with the utterly pointless Never Say Never Again, basically a remake of the much better Thunderball.Continue Reading
The Longest Yard (1974)
Along with Deliverance a few years earlier and Boogie Nights decades later, The Longest Yard is one the three best movies of Burt Reynolds' career (there are not a lot of good ones to choose from) and maybe his best performance. It's the perfect role to show off his machismo sense of humor and the laid back, good-ol' boy charm that made him a superstar in the '70s. He had his share of very successful films (Smokey and The Bandit, etc) and a few nice ones (Starting Over), but the trio of Deliverance, Boogie Nights, and especially The Longest Yard are about the only times he teamed with major directors and had perfect scripts to suit him. (By the time he did Nickelodeon with Peter Bogdanovich or Rough Cut with Don Siegel or Semi-Tough with Michael Ritchie those once great directors' shelf-lives had already expired.)
Director Robert Aldrich had a diverse and distinguished career - only a handful of home runs, but those hits were massive. Moving from television to film he would make one of the last great noir films, Kiss Me Deadly, and then the classily twisted What Ever Happened To Baby Jane?. He would direct a number of solid action films including Flight of The Phoenix, Too Late The Hero, and peak with the wildly popular rowdy WWII film, The Dirty Dozen. The Longest Yard would repeat the cynical formula, making the bad guys the heroes. And with it Aldrich would prove he still had one more great film in him (unfortunately after The Longest Yard the rest of his career was pretty much junk, including reteaming with Reynolds for the listless detective film Hustle).Continue Reading

Quick question on potting for 5-1-1
I'm getting 2 gallon blueberries I ordered online soon and would like them to go into a 5-1-1 mix in much larger containers. Do I wash all the old soil off when transplanting into the 5-1-1? I know this is an important step with the gritty mix but couldn't find info on this for the 5-1-1. Thanks!
PROBABLY your blueberry plants will come in a similar BARK BASED medium. Secondly, I don't see a reason for disturbing the plants too much, as those are going to be an out doors plants. JMO
BTW: for blueberries you will need to acidify the potting mix, instead of adding lime, methinks.
If the plants arrive dormant (as they probably will), gently removing the original potting mix would be ideal. Nonetheless, it's not essential, especially if the mix looks very similar to what you'll be using (as seysonn mentioned) or if the plants have emerged from dormancy. You might already be aware of everything after this point, but, just in case, I'll add a few more pointers about fertilization/irrigation...
The pH of 5-1-1 mix without lime is usually in the acceptable range for blueberries, so no further acidification is necessary (and could very well be detrimental).
If your fertilizer doesn't supply calcium and magnesium, you'll need a supplemental source of both. Since it doesn't affect pH, gypsum works well as a Ca source (premix 1 tbsp per gallon of potting mix). Epsom salt is a good source of Mg -- just dissolve 1/8 to 1/4 tsp in each gallon of irrigation water once a week or so.
Ideally, you should water your potted blueberries exclusively with rain water. If that's not possible and your irrigation water contains bicarbonates (as most ground water and municipal water does), you'll need to add an acid to your irrigation water to lower the pH to 5.5 or so. The simplest option is white vinegar, but there's a good argument to be made that sulfuric acid is more effective in the long term. If you choose the latter, be sure to read up on how use it safely (if you don't know already, of course).
Finally, blueberries do best with fertilizers that supply nitrogen in the form of urea or ammonium (as opposed to nitrate). Nitrate forms of nitrogen aren't necessarily toxic (although they can be at high doses), but blueberries don't use them very efficiently (their native acidic soils are naturally low in nitrates).
Thanks! I was planning on using the Foxfarms Acid Loving Fertilizer since it has Magnesium and Calcium in it but when I emailed them and asked about it in regards to blueberries, they told me that I should probably add some more on my own as well since blueberries will want more. Should I still add gypsum and epsom salts if I choose to go with Foxfarm? Or just add a lesser amount? Or do you think I'll be fine with just their fertilizer since it does have those two elements in it?
Also, with the epsom salt, do you have to dissolve it when irrigating or can it be placed around the dripline in the container to be watered in?
Maybe cut the gypsum by half? Sprinkling epsom salt on the surface and watering it in should be fine (just don't over apply it). As for a CRF, I did try Osmocote Plus* with one potted blueberry last year, and it flourished. If memory serves me correctly, I top dressed it at approximately 1/2 tablespoon per gallon of mix. The same plant also received weak doses of Jack's Classic Acid Special at every watering.
*Osmocote Plus has been discontinued and is hard to find at this point, so I'll be switching to Dynamite All Purpose Select this year.

Andrew Miller continued to battle control problems on Thursday, issuing seven walks in four innings as the Memphis Redbirds beat the New Orleans Zephyrs 7-5 in Jupiter, Fla.
Miller allowed three runs on five hits and hit a batter. He struck out three while dropping his second game to Memphis in five days.
Tim Wood, optioned to New Orleans a day earlier, gave up four runs (two earned) in the sixth inning as the Redbirds built a 7-2 lead.
Jay Buente struck out two while surrendering one hit in two innings.
The offense was led by Logan Morrison and Ryan Klosterman, who each delivered two-run triples. Morrison's three-bagger in the first inning gave the Zephyrs a 2-0 lead. The Slidell native also walked twice.
Klosterman's triple was part of a three-run ninth inning that drew the Zephyrs within 7-5. Jason Delaney followed with an RBI double to score Klosterman, but the Zephyrs would get no closer.
Danny Richar doubled twice for the Zephyrs, who struck out nine times on the day.
The Zephyrs face the Buffalo Bisons on Friday, with Rick VandenHurk, getting the start.

Requesting feedback is a valuable - and critical - element of the writing process. When it's positive, feedback can encourage you to keep going when you might otherwise lack momentum. On a more granular level, it can reveal what's strongest about your writing, which characters and storylines readers respond to the most, etc. All in all, it's a wonderful motivator in what can be an extremely lonely endeavor.
Negative feedback, while sometimes (or perhaps always) tough to swallow, is equally important. Constructive criticism on plot, character development, dialogue, or even grammar can alert you to weaknesses in your writing - and give you time to address them before taking your manuscript to a bigger stage.
However, while many people would love to help you, not everyone is cut out to criticize the work of friends or family members. So unless you're sure the person in question will be completely honest with his or her opinion, good or bad,…Continue

If you want to get the most out of life, discover joy no matter what your circumstances, and have an endless supply of ideas and inspiration for your writing, then I suggest you take up the ancient and powerful Way of the Scavenger.
Scavenging is a way of being, thinking, and living that:
sees the world as trove of pirate treasure
values the broken and discarded
puts to use all manner of things others hold to be worthless, ugly, ruined, or done with.
Scavengers have always existed. They are the dumpster divers, the junkmen, and the ragpickers of the world. They are the ones who survive the toughest of times. Because they know how to make do.

Having worked my entire career for small presses, I've received the "why isn't my book in the bookstore?" e-mail many many times from authors. Most new authors assume their books are going to be carried in any brick-and-mortar store they go into; savvier authors who've been around the block a few times know that it's not that cut-and-dried. This is only becoming harder in today's publishing climate, as more and more books compete for less and less shelf space; and if you're a self-published author, you're operating at a significant disadvantage. Though your local bookstores might support local self-published authors, without traditional distribution, it's almost impossible to get your book carried beyond your local mom-and-pop store, let alone to get a non-local bookstore to host an event…Continue

DIY Pavers

Hi there,
I purchased the Quikrete Paver mold and Quikrete concrete in hopes to make a walkway that was smooth like the video I watched. Instead it looks very rough and rocky. I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong or using the wrong concrete.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Organizing Photos on the Apple TV

Q: I have thousands of photos and videos on my Windows 7 PC that I stream to my third-generation Apple TV. The problem is, the Apple TV puts ALL of my photos and videos into very large "buckets" in the browsing interface, making it very difficult to find a particular video or picture. Is there any way to browse by folders on the Apple TV similar to the way you can with the Roku or PS3 Server?
- Doug
A: When accessing photos from a folder, the Apple TV will organize each top-level folder into a separate album, however sub-folders within those are basically ignored, with all photos aggregated into an album named for the primary, top-level folder.
If you've already built a photo folder structure more than one level deep on your PC, this means that there's really no way to reflect this organization on your Apple TV without either reorganizing your existing photo collection into a single tier of folders or copying them to a separate folder structure exclusively for sharing with the Apple TV.
Note that you do not have to share ALL of your photo folders with the Apple TV; you can choose the Selected Folders option from the Photo Sharing settings in iTunes to see a list of all of the top-level folders and choose which ones to share with the Apple TV.
As another alternative, you can selectively share photos via iCloud Photo Stream with the Apple TV, where they can be accessed from the "Photo Streams" section. This requires the iCloud Control Panel for Windows to upload the photos to a free iCloud account, from which they can then be accessed on the Apple TV without requiring your computer to be powered on. However, although this allows you to organize your photos into albums independently of your PC's file and folder layout, it still only supports a single, top layer of albums.

I am currently pursuing my Bachelor's degree in Psychology at University of Houston-Downtown.
I am a very responsible, reliable, trustworthy individual who takes this type of employment (childcare) extremely serious. I really enjoy being a nanny/babysitter and to provide you with "peace of mind (POM)", as I am CPR, AED and First Aid certified. I have a lot of experience working with children; for the past summers (2008, 2010 and 2011) I was a camp counselor, I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old, I was a nanny for a few families, as well as an after-school babysitter. Most of my clients have been long term with me, at least a year or more. I think it's safe to say I love working with children!
I am currently looking for a family who would need my help starting in the Fall semester in August, for an after-school position Monday through Friday from around 3pm-6 or 7 p.m. would be great, I am flexible.
Engaging with the children is a great part of their learning process. By now you've decided that I am a "great fit" for you and your family, right? So, don't hesitate to contact me now to add your family to my list of clients/references. If you would like to contact my references in advance, I would be happy to provide you with my list. I look forward to hearing from you soon.


text: #27 of 52 Just finished Joe Hill's NOS4R2. I really liked it quite a bit. Very reminiscent of Stephen Kings earlier work. There is even a nod to one. The only thing I was disappointed in was the ending. I mean it ended well, but I felt a bit of it was glossed over that I would have liked to see how it was dealt with. If you've read it you probably know what I mean. But all in all, it was a great read. I highly recommend it! From Amazon; NOS4A2 is a spine-tingling novel of supernatural suspense from master of horror Joe Hill, the New York Times bestselling author of Heart-Shaped Box and Horns. Victoria McQueen has a secret gift for finding things: a misplaced bracelet, a missing photograph, answers to unanswerable questions. On her Raleigh Tuff Burner bike, she makes her way to a rickety covered bridge that, within moments, takes her wherever she needs to go, whether its across Massachusetts or across the country. Charles Talent Manx has a way with children. He likes to take them for rides in his 1938 Rolls-Royce Wraith with the NOS4A2 vanity plate. With his old car, he can slip right out of the everyday world, and onto the hidden roads that transport them to an astonishing and terrifying playground of amusements he calls Christmasland. Then, one day, Vic goes looking for troubleand finds Manx. That was a lifetime ago. Now Vic, the only kid to ever escape Manxs unmitigated evil, is all grown up and desperate to forget. But Charlie Manx never stopped thinking about Victoria McQueen. Hes on the road again and hes picked up a new passenger: Vics own son.

Are You Into the Drama of Jersey Shore?
by Celebrity
Like us on Facebook
MTV seems to have done it again with their latest reality show, Jersey Shore. It only debuted last week, but the program is already grabbing headlines due to a cast member leaving, another wanting to pose for Playgirl, and because of death threats against producers due to its potentially offensive portrayal of Italian-Americans. The teaser trailer for the season features a distressing scene in which the female housemate Snookie is assaulted in a bar by a man who has already been prosecuted for the attack. It's a whole lot to take in, so buzz in about the show and tell us — are you into all the drama of Jersey Shore?

New Jersey does have people with IQ's of greater than double digits. But then, who watch that show? This show plays to the lowest common denominator, and that's what sells.

Wasn't MTV originally for music...yes. So they need to go back to showing music videos and TV shows concerning that. They love to hire people to be on shows, that will degrade their own race beyond belief. We don't need America embarrassed anymore than it already is to outsiders. This has been going on for too many years now. Weak minded people sadly believe that this is how most Italian's act in their daily lives. We need more quality television for our own people.

i've watched the show more so because of a lack of anything else on, but i'm not at all surprised about what's being said about it. i think that MTV knows what types of things to put on reality shows to increase buzz and well this is just an example of that.

text: Syria calls Egypt's severing of ties a US-Israeli conspiracy Egypt Egypt Syria Kaitlin Funaro on Dec 31, 1969 @ 7:33 PM Syrian army troops patrol a ravaged street in Qusair in Syria's central Homs province on June 5, 2013, after government forces seized total control of the former rebel-stronghold. Syria is lashing out against Egypt's decision to sever ties with Damascus and close its embassy in the Syrian capital. The Syrian government said that Egypt's decision to cut ties with Damascus is an "irresponsible" move led by pressure from the US and Israel. Egyptian President Muhammad Morsi on Saturday announced "definitive" plans to cut diplomatic ties with Syria and close its embassy in Damascus. Morsi also called for a "no fly" zone over Syria. A Syrian government official quoted in state media on Sunday said, "the Syrian Arab Republic condemns this irresponsible position." The official told SANA that Morsi had joined the "conspiracy and incitement led by the United States and Israel against Syria by announcing the cutting of ties yesterday". "Syria is confident that this decision does not represent the will of the Egyptian people," the official added. Egypt made the decision to sever ties amid growing pressure from Sunni clerics to launch a "holy war" against Assad's regime. The BBC reports that Sunni clerics from several Arab countries met in Cairo on Thursday and issued a statement calling for "jihad to help our brothers in Syria by sending them money and arms". "The flagrant aggression of the Iranian regime, of Hezbollah and of their sectarian allies in Syria amounts to a declaration of war against Islam and Muslims," the statement went on. Morsi also demanded that the Lebanese Shia movement Hezbollah withdraw from the fighting in Syria, where its members are assisting Assad's army fight the rebels. In Egypt, CBS News' Alex Ortiz reports that the Syrian flag still flies over the Embassy in Cairo, for now. Around 50 Syrian citizens were gathered outside the embassy on Sunday morning, Ortiz reported. Embassy staff or security from inside are calling out names of the Syrians who have come to retrieve their passports, according to CBS.

However, Linus' comment that niceness levels are absolute, and you may want things to be more dynamic than that and fine-grained. For instance, if Xorg started being mean, you wouldn't want all your other processes to be destroyed. That's my understanding of that anyway.
Also, I think this issue is more complex than just scheduling of jobs, and there seems to have been a lot of improvements in actually making things more able to run in parallel, or in other words I think the multitasking ability of Linux just got a whole lot better with the recent coding that has gone into it. Being also able to make it so GUI responsiveness and user interaction in general gets higher priority is just one of the improvements.
Seriously, before all this, Linux had much worse multitasking capabilities than Windows 2000 did. Very happy to see this getting fixed.
For real good io scheduling linux 2.6.36 got a cgroup blkio subsystem.
Unfortunately it does not support deep hierarchy, so i need to run an own, flat mapping there.
But i hope that oom killer will never fire at all.
The GUI tasks should have a high priority, mainly the front window; audio should have a high priority too.
I'd like to make two points.
Point one:
Guys, what are you talking about? Do you even realise a bunch of students can't write an OS scheduler! It's Operating System Science, a lot of research has been put into it, it's a highly theoretical and a very complex matter. It's not done overnight or in any way fast.
Point two:
Desktop latency is a very complex issue, spawning across numerous subsystems, and the disorganised approach we have now in Linux, with new scheduler variants appearing every day, a few control daemons, and now this ULatencyD daemon being developed without necessary synchronisation and unified planning. Take a look at the Windows approach, for example:there the scheduler talks to the window manager and to some other subsystems, such as I/O and don't remember what else, dynamically adjusting itself and the process timeslice to the current situation. However, it is desktop-oriented, and this is where the window manager ties and the general quantum calculation and distribution algorithms originate. So we need to tackle this issue in a more broad and integrated way (not to be messed up with generic, that's another thing), and less UNIX/Linux (distributed/independent development) way, if you want.
This is what I mean:imagine some guy comes and says, "I want to introduce a mechanism for providing window manager feedback into the kernel a la Windows scheduler." Imagine the flame that comes right next to this? "It's not generic enough! We can't rely on a window manager in the kernel! We chanbge window managers every day! You're making too many assumptions, and this s not how Linux and UNIX in general is developed! Go go go develop your non-generic code somewhere else but not here! Never will it be included in the kernel!" And so on and so forth. We're too generic, and that's our problem. Sometimes you need to make compromises and develop something less generic and more exact, but solving some certain problem well instead of trying to be a jack of all trades and not succeeding in any of the problems you're trying to solve.
.... However,
You seem to mix "multi-tasking" and "interactive performance".
Linux is -very- good at juggling huge amount of process on large amount of processing cores, In fact, it's -far- better than Windows Server 2K8 (Let alone Windows 2K).
However, as a desktop OS, Linux, at least out-of-the-box, is less optimized for interactive performance. (What is usually called responsiveness)
On the other hand, I spent parts of the weekend working (including gaming...) on my Xeon workstation while 16 out of the 24 (hyper)threads were busy compressing a 1.5TB storage into an external USB drive using tar+pbzip, so I guess Linux is not that bad when it comes to interactive performance....

I just wanted to inform, that i made a real release 0.3.1
It got a lot of features since the project announcement. This release contains a plugin that detects the process of the active x window and gives those more cpu shares. And much more...
There is now a ubuntu PPA.
Xorg sure does use a lot of CPU. I wonder just how CPU-hungry Wayland will be in comparison. :P
so, even when x will not set the property on the menu windows, the focus information is not lost.
there are already rules that add ui apps of kde and gnome to a ui group that has more priority then any other running program, so switching desktops etc always feels fast.
xserver itself is placed in the group system.essential which gets lots of cpu shares.

This Dollar goes a long way.
A new Dollar General will open in Catawba this week, giving town residents quick and easy access to basic grocery store needs. There is no grocery store in Catawba, and many residents have to drive outside town lines currently to get food or a general item quickly.
The store is located at the intersection of U.S. 70 and Oxford School Road.
A Conover man faces a charge of driving while impaired after he wrecked his moped Tuesday morning on N.C. 16.
Gregory Eugene Shook, 51, was impaired by medication, not alcohol, when he lost control of his scooter just before 5 a.m., said Trooper B.K. Perkins of the N.C. Highway Patrol.
Perkins said the first person to arrive after Shook's accident was Keith Cranor of Roan Mountain, Tenn.
"He found him across the center line of the road, called 911 and waited," Perkins said of Cranor.
Shook was transported to Catawba Valley Medical Center.
Alcohol was involved in a Sunday crash on U.S. 321 that killed a woman, according to the N.C. Highway Patrol.
Tyler Harold Shull, 27, of Hickory, is charged with driving while impaired and felony death by vehicle after a crash that killed 21-year-old Jessica Justice of Stanley.
Shull, with Justice in the passenger seat, was driving his 2008 Volkswagen Passat north on 321 when he hit a 1996 Jeep SUV driven by Brooke Nicole Shipman of Clyde.
Pieces of a recreation trail in Newton and Conover were in the spotlight on Sunday, even as dark rain clouds threatened.
Leaders in both cities dedicated segments of the Carolina Thread Trail – a planned 126-mile pathway that will meander through 15 counties in North and South Carolina. The trail is named for the counties' rich fabric manufacturing heritage.
Just after 2:30 p.m., members of Conover's city council lifted a white sheet off a sign that marks the Thread Trail on a stretch of the Gateway Trail off 1st Street.
A homemade pipe bomb was found in a Newton man's home after he was arrested on a charge of drinking and driving this weekend.
Police first arrested Mark David Leatherman, 41, of 1950 Ira Drive in Newton, on Saturday for Driving While Impaired (DWI) on his street, according to Catawba County Sheriff's Office Capt. Joel Fish.
Authorities returned to Leatherman's home on Sunday in response to a domestic argument and found a homemade pipe bomb on the front yard.
Fish said Leatherman's girlfriend had found the pipe bomb previously and had hidden it for safety purposes.
Filing for Claremont's city council race will re-open on Monday after the recent death of incumbent James "PJ" Stanley.
Stanley, a 2011 incumbent who has served as a city councilman since 1987, died Wednesday after a short fight with leukemia.
The Catawba County Board of Elections announced on Friday that it will re-open filing for the council race from Monday until Wednesday.
Only two other candidates have filed for the race at this time – incumbents Nicky E. Setzer and M. Dale Sherrill. There are three open seats on the Claremont City Council.
Gov. Beverly Perdue and other state and county leaders saw what they called the future of health care training and workforce development Friday at Catawba Valley Community College.
CVCC presented its 28,000-square-foot regional simulated hospital on the fifth floor of the campus' Cuyler Dunbar Building in Hickory.
There is a hospital inside Catawba Valley Community College. On Friday, it came to life.
In a simulated Intensive Care Unit (ICU), second-year student Ethel Downey pulled a hunk of innards from the chest of a "gunshot victim." She lifted it up for her fellow students and audience to see, and a line of fake blood squirted from the "patient's" sliced artery and hit her on the forearm.
"You got me that time," she said to fellow student Leslie Casey, who was controlling the reproduced blood palpitations. Downey looked at the patient simulator and continued operating.
A pink fire truck parked in front of the Catawba County Justice Center in Newton on Friday afternoon.
People walked up with black pens and wrote all over it – each set of words a message of support for women who have battled cancer.
The truck's visit was a stop on the Pink Heals Guardians of the Ribbons Tour, a nonprofit effort that began several years ago in Arizona as a way to raise awareness of breast and other cancers that women face.
Justice didn't taste so good this week for a group of men who set up a drive-through robbery in Denver last year.
Police arrested three men on Wednesday associated with an armed robbery at the Denver KFC/Taco Bell on May 26, 2010. The robbery was a setup and involved one suspect taking money from his acquaintance who worked at the restaurant, said Capt. Joel Fish of the Catawba County Sheriff's Office.

I do not know really how to start as there is no way I can fit into a nutshell. I am carefree, laid back, sarcastic, and easygoing. I do have some spunk and by no means a wall flower. I love quick wit and love a good debate. I am outgoing, have a kind heart, and can be random at times. I love to laugh and all about enjoying life. I am over the SD bar scene, though will not turn down cocktails in sunshine with good company and as long as it is outdoors. I do have a little side kick named Crosby, my french bulldog.

hello dkcurt, first please see if installing the search reset addon can resolve the issue: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/ (a restart of the browser is necessary afterwards).

otherwise try the following steps in order to manually restore the search function on the default homepage:

go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information and click on profile folder/show folder. a windows explorer window should open up - in there delete the file named chromeappsstore.sqlite.

then enter about:config into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone - right-click and reset that entry to the default value.

restart firefox
