- Adjuvant therapy—This is chemotherapy that is given after surgery, either alone or with radiation (or another type of therapy), and that is designed to kill cells that have metastasized.
- Neoadjuvant chemotherapy—This is used prior to surgery to shrink a tumor, usually in conjunction with radiotherapy.
- Primary therapy—This form is used alone when leukemia or lymphoma is present. The therapy is also used alone in the management of other cancers when no hope for cure is present, and chemotherapy is given to control symptoms.
- Induction chemotherapy—This is used as the first of many therapies. For instance, in the management of some lung cancers , chemotherapy may be given first (induction) followed by either surgery or radiation therapy. In stomach cancer (either before or after surgery), chemotherapy may be given first followed by radiation therapy.
- Combination chemotherapy—This involves the use of two or more chemotherapeutic agents, allowing for each medication to enhance the action of the other or for the two to work synergistically.
How Does Chemotherapy Work?
- G0 phase—Also known as the resting phase, at this stage, the cell has not started to divide. This step can last a few hours, a few days, a few years, or a lifetime. When the cell is signaled to reproduce, it moves to the next phase, G1 phase.
- G1 phase—The cell readies to divide by manufacturing proteins necessary for reproduction. This phase lasts about 18 to 30 hours.
- S phase—The cell's complement of genes made of DNA is copied so that when the cell divides, the new cell will have a copy of the genetic information. This phase lasts from 18 to 20 hours.
- G2 phase—Further protein synthesis occurs; this phase lasts from 2 to 10 hours.
- M phase—The cell splits into two new cells; this phase lasts about 30 to 60 minutes.
What Is Chemotherapy Used For?
- Cure—The goal is to cure the cancer so that is disappears (is killed off) and does not return.
- Control—If cure is not possible, chemotherapy aims to control the growth and spread of the cancer.
- Palliation—If cure and control are not possible, chemotherapy is given to relieve symptoms caused by the cancer.
What Are the Types of Chemotherapy?

- Vinca plant alkaloids
- Miscellaneous agents such as asparaginase and dacarbazine
- Alkylating agents
- Antitumor antibiotics
- Nitrosureas
- Hormone and steroid drugs
- Miscellaneous agents such as procarbazine
- Orally—The drug is given in pill, capsule, or liquid form and swallowed.
By injection—The drug is given using a needle or syringe in one of several ways:
- Intramuscularly (IM)—into the muscle
- Subcutaneously (SQ or SC)—under the skin and into the fat tissue
- Intralesionally (IL)—directly into the cancerous area of the skin

Nov 3, 2012Kill Bill style action movie. Nothing you have not seen before but a lot of stuff you liked when you saw it in other movies. If you are in the mood for sword fighting, fantasy blood spewing, eyeball flying fun this will satisfy your appetite. Batista does a good job. Soundtrack lyrics have nothing to do with the movie? Not too long like so many other movies made this year.
Nov 3, 2012Kill Bill action. That's Ll you need to know. It's not for the story or anything, just awesome kill bill action. What else do you need to know? If you love cheesey blood, gore, and action, this is the movie for you and it won't disappoint.
Dec 12, 2012This movie was terrible.. it tried to be Tarantino and failed.. it tried to be a campy Kung-Fu movie and failed... It really just didn't do anything well. Sure, it had action, but it was so poorly directed it made me feel bad for the time and effort put in to this movie.
Nov 3, 2012
Nov 10, 2012
Nov 6, 2012To correct vpkraja, this movie is not chinese made, it just has asian actors. Anyway, if you're like him and have never seen a movie like it, don't go see it, go rent some old school kung fu movies and see if you like them before you give up the 11 dollars to see this.
Nov 3, 2012
Nov 9, 2012I like QT, RZA, Kill Bill Etc... but this movie was HORRIBLE. I literally walked out after wasting an hour... my popcorn was the best part. The movie had a great trailer... fooled again!
Dec 29, 2012
Jul 8, 2014This review contains spoilers.
May 12, 2013It is not a bad movie altough it has to many CGI Effects and the gore elements are to excessively but it still knows how to entertain you.
Nov 13, 2012
Dec 23, 2012
Dec 31, 2012Not a picture to be taken seriously, but Rza has made a pretty good homage to the old Kung Fu films by the Shaw brothers. It's a genre mix-up that works surprisingly well, kung fu with hip hop? Who would have known? Produced by Quentin Tarantino, with a surprisingly robust cast for a film of this type.
Jul 16, 2013
Nov 6, 2012I think the critics who gave low scores to this movie don't really know what a Kung-Fu movie is supposed to be. This was a pleasant surprise and follows the mold of those that came before it. If you like Kung-Fu movies this is a movie for you, if you don't know the genre, you probably won't get it.
Nov 17, 2012
Nov 4, 2012As others have said, this movie is a nice rehashing of the old Kung Fu films. The plot is threadbare, but did you really expect more? The imaginative weaponry and choreography is where this film really shines. Go in expecting violence (there is a lot) and enjoy the ride.
Nov 6, 2012I like the old school martial arts movies and you can tell that RZA is a huge fan of them. The good are the visuals, the fight scenes and (some of) the music. I was a little perplexed with a "reggaesque" track during one fight sequence...not sure it worked. What's bad are the writing, the acting and did I say writing. There was too much RZA in the movie. Bad move.
Dec 10, 2012The action goes from well-choreographed to cluttered and messy, a sign of a first time director. Overall, incredibly uneven. But the one constant is that outstanding soundtrack.
Nov 7, 2012I saw this film and was impressed with the imagery, camera angles and most of the limited action. I expected more action and was not impressed with the story line and/or dialogue. I'm proud of RZA but he should have casted someone else in his place. Maybe Michael Jai White. Otherwise I supported this film because I'm a fan of the Wu along with QT!
Nov 27, 2012I went to see this because of two(2) misapprehensions. 1. I thought it was written by Quentin. It isn't. Written by RZA. 2. I am a Shaw Brothers fan, have most of their movies on HDD, thought this would be a return to that campy/violent goodness. First 5-7 minutes of the film was exactly that, even had exposed tendons. After that...just f#$5ing BORING.
Dec 10, 2012The fight scenes are insane and well choreographed, the blood and gore are astounding and it has an amazing soundtrack featuring music from artists like Wu-Tang Clan and Kanye West but some thing's missing. Oh yeah, the story and plot make no sense. Also, the editing was a little too rubbish. See it though, even if just for the action scenes.
Feb 11, 2013
Dec 28, 2012
Feb 17, 2013The Man With The Iron Fists, is just not that good. It's sleek but really gory. The RZA sucks at making movies. Don't let the Queten Tarantino Presents logo fool you. 4/10 because of some cool scenes. Worse than A good day to die hard.
Feb 19, 2013
Mar 7, 2013For RZA's directorial debut it is well written and executed. The fight scenes were definitely a highlight of this movie. Though the plot could have been better Russell Crowe did a good job and RZA was decent. All in all it's not that bad but people won't watch this movie for the acting. I wouldn't recommend it unless you like Kung Fu movies or mindless action.
Nov 28, 2013Anyone that dare to give this movie a more than 4 is an idiot. The WORST movie I ever since. The Story, the Action, the Special effect, everything is Nonsense. Can't stand watching this.
Sep 5, 2013Movie was pretty good. Accomplished what it set out to do, which was to emulate the classic 70s cheesy martial arts films. I don't get why people are criticizing it for not "expanding" or "innovating" on the genre. Gimme a break, what do you expect? Also the soundtrack was great..
Apr 4, 2015An outstanding action movie with all the right nods to the kung fu classics of the 70's - excellent set pieces and great fun. The music is somewhat incongruous but somehow it all fits, and Russell Crowe seems to be having the time of his life.
Mar 20, 2015
It's leaden, boorish and dull.
Dec 3, 2012Don't let the 'Quentin Tarantino Presents' tag deceive you, this is a mixed bag of lumpen dialogue and martial-arts magic that never quite coalesces into the delirious mayhem we'd hoped for.
Nov 25, 2012Grisly and goofy, this ode to the Shaw Brothers' '70s-era kung fu epics serves up 96 minutes of murder and mutilation and not a lot else. Sweet soundtrack, though.

2011 iPod touch review
I was honestly excited about getting an iPod touch with an A5 and IPS backed retina display too... :(
This is my favorite review here. But it IS a monumental upgrade. I mean, people went nuts for the white iphone which was just as much of a monumental upgrade. So why all the disdain when apple uses its massive R&D knowhow to come up with the way to attach that vibrant white shell of purity to the touch? Time to squeal with joy, isn't it?
ah ya what can be more disappointing ? i think they tried so hard to disappoint people; thats what apple really did this year. great post thank you
wait what, no way, that is amazing, this is the best feature ever. A White iPod Touch, Im quivering in excitement. Not really, i don't care, i love my 4thGen in black just fine. However this is the best review I have ever seen. So detailed.
I disagree with the reviews I've read of this smart-ass, non-helpful "review," and reads as condescending to anyone who's not as "in the know" as the reviewer. It could have said what is the same as the 2010 product. Specifically: Is the processor the same? (Apparently - heck if I know from this "review.") Does it come with Siri, or can Siri be installed on it? Oh, and since Apple's advertising it as a "new" feature for the new iPod Touch, is iMessenger really a reason for someone to get a new iPod Touch? (Apparently not since it seems to come with iOS - but you wouldn't know from reading this "review.") Is there anything new about this new product that keeps it one of the top options for consumers looking for a (relatively) low-cost portable digital media player - or should they hold out for a Kindle Fire? (Probably not, and maybe - who knows?)
The reason I read this blog and the other blogs connected to it (particularly Android Central and Pre Central) is because they're entertaining and useful, most of the time. This post is the opposite of it. I hope you don't publish any more reviews like this one.
I also come here because it's informative - most of the time. The review was just smart-ass. If that's all they were going for, awesome. Smart-ass can be entertaining. But this site is billed as an iOS information site, last I checked. And since I actually came here for information on the latest iPod Touch, this review was a disappointment. I had to figure out for myself what was not different. Here's a novel idea - maybe the reviewer can actually talk about how there's basically no difference, instead of merely make fun of it and leave it up to the reader to figure it out? This was, in fact, the least-helpful review I've read on this site.
Get a life man. It's the same thing as the iPod that was launched in 2010. Just in white colour. If you needed all that information that you were mentioning, I think you're stuck in 2010, cause anyone visiting tipb would at least know the basic stuff about an iPod touch.
The fact that there was another post created to accommodate this "rerun" was a bonus. Better than reposting the same review just with a white iPod touch.
I think Siri would be good for you.
You left out the most critical information that we simply must know... What is the 'Quality" of the white used in this high tech device?
It is too important for that to be skipped over. Apple after all perfected, & probably has a patent, on white technology gizmos.
This is why I love TiPB so much, all of these wonderful, in-depth multi-character reviews (such as this one), it makes my buying decisions so much easier when I have this kind of information! :)
Apple sort of dropped the ball on this one. I figured they'd at least give it a better camera. My fiance has an iPod Touch that I got her earlier this year, and it's camera is worse than the first camera phone I ever had (V3 RAZR).
As soon as they announced the "4G" iPod Touch that I'd been waiting on for a year, I went to Best Buy and bought the 3G for $25 off.
Seriously; I took the gift cards I'd been saving and went the same afternoon. I got an iFrogz case on clearance, too. (The prices probably went back up when they figured out they were still good!) The only bummer was I'd been wanting a 3mp camera, but I guess I'll have to live without it.
the battery life on my ipod touch 4g is pure dose eny one think the same
the a4 chip is bad also just performing the smalest of tasks it heats up like a bitch wy is this ?

Republican Establishment Declares War on GOP Voters
Official Washington hailed the deal to avoid the so-called fiscal cliff as a significant bipartisan accomplishment. However, voters around the country viewed the deal in very partisan terms: Seven out of 10 Democrats approved of it, while seven out of 10 Republicans disapproved.
Just a few days after reaching that agreement, an inside-the-Beltway publication reported another area of bipartisan agreement. Politico explained that while Washington Democrats have always viewed GOP voters as a problem, Washington Republicans "in many a post-election soul-searching session" have come to agree. More precisely, the article said the party's Election 2012 failures have "brought forth one principal conclusion from establishment Republicans: They have a primary problem."
As seen from the halls of power, the problem is that Republican voters think it's OK to replace incumbent senators and congressman who don't represent the views of their constituents. In 2012, for example, Republican voters in Indiana dumped longtime Sen. Richard Lugar in a primary battle.
This infuriated establishment Republicans for two reasons. First, because they liked Lugar and the way he worked. Second, because the replacement candidate was flawed and allowed Democrats to win what should have been a safe Republican seat. So, according to Politico, the Washington team is gearing up a new effort to protect incumbents and limit the ability of Republican voters to successfully challenge establishment candidates.
That makes sense to those whose sole goal is winning a majority in Congress rather than changing the course of government policy. Seen from the outside, though, it sounds like the professional politicians are saying that the only way to win is to pick more candidates like the insiders. Hearing that message, the reaction of many Republican and conservative voters is, "Why bother?"
That's why more than two-thirds of Republican voters believe GOP officials in Washington have lost touch with the party's base.
The Republican establishment has two choices. They can act as mature party leaders of a national political party, or they can protect their own self-interest.
Mature party leaders would spend a lot more time listening to Republican voters rather than further insulating themselves from those voters. They would try to understand why just 37 percent of Republicans nationwide believe the economy is fair. They would give serious thought to why just half of GOP voters have a favorable opinion of House Speaker John Boehner, the highest-ranking elected Republican in the nation. They would acknowledge that government spending in America has gone up in every year since 1954 regardless of whether Republicans or Democrats are in charge.
Then mature party leaders would chart a realistic course to address these concerns and share those plans with the voters. To succeed, this course would have to include some painful medicine for the establishment, such as giving up corporate welfare programs that benefit their friends and allies. It also would require helping Republican voters identify primary candidates who challenge the establishment but could be effective on the campaign trail.
This is a much tougher course to follow; one that would benefit the party and the nation. Unfortunately, by seeking to protect the insiders from the voters, all indications are that most establishment Republicans would rather blame the voters and keep their perks.

So-called "energy" products prey on the scientific illiteracy of consumers. They aren't selling energy, they are selling a sense of alertness. How can you have a zero calorie energy drink? Calories are how you measure energy content. A "zero calorie energy drink" is a contradiction in terms.

KIF5B/RET is an abnormal gene that leads to the growth of lung cancer cells. Cabozantinib is an investigational drug that inhibits the effects of this gene. In addition, this drug interferes with other pathways that also cause cancer cells to grow, form new blood vessels, and spread to other parts of the body.
In this study, researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of cabozantinib in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancers that contain the KIF5B/RET gene. Cabozantinib is a pill that is taken orally (by mouth).

Lecturers and University staff can start from here to search for Estonian Colleges and Universities with whom to establish cooperative educational agreements, student exchange programs or simply research academic information.
About University rankings
Many national and international websites and newspapers provide annual rankings of Universities and Colleges based on several criteria. For many years, they have undertaken both statistical and reputational ratings / rankings of Colleges and attempted to provide relevant information to prospective students. Increasingly, the importance and validity of University and College rankings is a highly debated issue. Many Universities, including highly ranked ones, are beginning to question both the data and methods used by some ranking services. Of special concern are the aspects of the rankings / ratings which deal with the difficult to measure concept of institutional reputation.The aim of this website is to provide an approximate ranking of world-wide Universities and Colleges based on the popularity of their website only. We do not claim to rank Universities by their reputation, quality of education or level of services provided.

Tonight's Bake. . . .
The dough was very easy to work with. The flavor was spot on, overall texture was very tender even when cold, the crust was very light and airy, not chewy. 1) Margherita2) Guanciale, red onion, chili flakes3) Guanciale, brussel sprouts4) Wild boar bacon, red onion5) Guanciale, black truffle cream, mushroom, basil
1. Do the Brussels Sprouts taste bitter with the char? Are the leaves moistened with water or coated with oil before you dress the pizza?
So with all the talk about the home oven NP pies, I decided to give it a try last night once again. Dough was mixed as follows. . . .

Passport Contol
Arriving in the UK (Passport Control and Customs)
Everyone arriving from overseas at Bristol Airport has to go through Passport Control. UK Border Agency officers scan passports and cross-check passenger details to ensure that only those eligible to enter the country can do so. New technology enabling all passports to be scanned on entry into the UK has enhanced border security, but can result in slightly longer waiting times at ports across the country. You can help UK Border Agency officers by having your passport open to the photograph page and being ready for examination by the time you reach the inspection point.
Passengers not holding a British, EU or European Economic Area passport must complete a landing card provided by the airline they are travelling with. This should be provided by the airline during the flight to the UK.
If you are travelling with €10 000 or more, please declare it to customs before entering or leaving the EU. For more information, please visit: ec.europa.eu/eucashcontrols.
We endeavour to provide both a warm welcome to visitors to the South West and a convenient return home for local passengers after a trip away. However, the UK Border Agency manages all border control points, enforcing immigration and customs regulations, and the safety and security of the UK must, understandably, be its top priority.
Automated Passport gates
By using the latest technology the UK Border Agency can now provide faster checks for some passengers while maintaining border security. An automated gate system is in place at Bristol Airport and can be used by passengers over the age of 18 with an ePassport containing an electronic chip.
The UK Border Agency is manned and operational at specific times on a daily basis. The agreed times are 10:30 to 12:30, 17:00 to 18:30 and 21:00 to 23:00, to coincide with our inbound passenger peak. These opening hours are subject to staffing levels with the UK Border Agency.
For more information visit the UK Border Agency website.

Mejia, Arroyo look to keep ball in the yard
Mets, D-backs, who have been prone to allowing homers, meet on JRD
Consider it a minor miracle that despite the 10 runs between them, neither the Mets nor D-backs homered in Monday's series opener.
The teams entered this week having given up the first- and second-most home runs of any club in the Majors. With 21 homers against the Mets and 20 against the D-backs, their pitchers had served up more homers than the bottom six teams in the league combined. So despite Monday's drought, expect a firework or two when the Mets and D-backs meet again for Tuesday night's game at Chase Field on Jackie Robinson Day.
"What's hurt us is walks and homers," D-backs general manager Kevin Towers said, adding of his rotation's struggles in general: "We certainly didn't see this coming."
Neither did the Mets, whose 4.95 rotation ERA entering the week ranked 26th in baseball -- but was still four spots better and more than two runs lower than Arizona's mark. Control has not been a significant issue for the Mets, but command has. The Mets have been throwing too many strikes over the heart of the plate, resulting in all those homers against them.
"It's easy to say, hard to do," Collins said of fixing the problem. "The greatest of the greats make mistakes. We've just got to keep the ball out of the middle of the plate, that nitro zone. When we throw it there, it's loud. I think it comes with repetition and more innings and more pitches where the command gets better. You can emphasize it, but it's hard to do."
Tuesday's starters, right-handers Bronson Arroyo and Jenrry Mejia, have given up a combined five home runs in 20 1/3 innings this season.
Arroyo will be looking to build upon his last outing, in which he held the Giants to three runs over five innings while on a pitch count of 90. Arroyo should be free from limits against the Mets for the first time this season.
Mejia's biggest issue has been control, with nine walks -- nearly half the Mets' total as a rotation -- in 11 innings. He gave up four runs in five innings last time out in Atlanta.
Mets: Outfield injuries piling up
The Mets lost two outfielders during Monday's win over the D-backs.
First it was Curtis Granderson, who bruised the left side of his body crashing into the wall in the first inning. Granderson stuck around until the sixth, but ultimately left the game for X-rays and was wincing as he tied his shoes after the game. Though all tests came back negative, Granderson is unlikely to play Tuesday.
Minutes after Granderson left the game, Juan Lagares pulled up lame with a strained right hamstring. The Mets plan to see how Lagares feels on Tuesday before determining whether a disabled-list stint will be necessary.
The Mets may need to make a roster move prior to Tuesday's game, calling up either Kirk Nieuwenhuis or Bobby Abreu from Triple-A Las Vegas. They finished Monday's game with Lucas Duda, Eric Young and Andrew Brown in their outfield.
"We look at the big picture -- it's tough for us," Collins said. "Somebody's got to step up. Somebody else will need to be the guy."
D-backs: Bolsinger last to know about promotion
Mike Bolsinger went out to dinner Sunday night with about 14 of his Triple-A Reno teammates, and before they left to go, Reno manager Phil Nevin told them that Bolsinger was going to be promoted to the big leagues.
Throughout the dinner the teammates made subtle comments to him and finally Nevin called on the speakerphone to tell him he was headed to Phoenix.
"Obviously, it was a dream come true," he said. "I'm just happy to be here."
Worth noting
• Lagares has hit safely in nine straight games, extending his streak with a double in the second inning Monday. The injured outfielder, who has seven RBIs in 13 games, did not pick up his seventh RBI last season until his 36th game.
• The D-backs did not start one of their hottest players in Monday's series opener against the Mets. Cliff Pennington, who was 5-for-9 in his previous two games, sat while Chris Owings started at shortstop. Pennington grounded out as a pinch-hitter in the ninth.
• David Wright extended his hitting streak to six with an RBI single in the eighth inning Monday. Wright is batting only .269 over his streak, but also has four RBIs and three walks in the six games.

Rain water collection looks like its a religon. I know ift works for some people, who only have small shack and one little dog. But anyone who have a few cows, horses, and chickens to eat, need more water. One cow needs 35 gallons per day per head in warm weather. Animals need water daily, if it does not rain you cant spend 100 bucks on gas driving like a ambulance to town to get water daily, especially when your already standing on a auquafier below, its just down a few feet here 95ft to be exact.. We installed a surflow solar D/C water pump and we used a used free solar panel we got the idea from drillingfab.com/solarpanels they had a good idea, and it worked. The solar water pump pump 2100 gallons per day. we use a storage tank, and have plenty even in the night or cloudy days.
the real problem with rain catchment i had was it was a never ending expense to either make or buy tanks or cisterns.you just never have enough. when you trap more water you plant a little more in the garden , get another critter, its always something. i still have the stuff but i gave up on it as a primary water source.

When it's gray and rainy out, does that affect how you feel? This expression comes from the idea that bad weather might hurt a person's health and mood. The saying also may be related to "under the weather bow," the part of a boat that will take the force of rough seas during stormy weather. If you were in that part of the boat, you might get seasick!

What barely hanging on to A-list actor is a frequent guest at Singer's parties? There were pictures taken of him getting orally serviced by a young wannabe
. If those pics leak, the actor's career will be kaput.
And on another note (rant) while I'm sure some of these people coming forward are victims, I can't help but wonder if (the ones who were of age) they didn't know what they were getting into by attending these infamous parties. I know there had to be word of mouth and rumors. You go to things like that with intentions of making a name for yourself and you're gonna have to participate. Keep in mind I'm not talking about underage here although how and why in the world would a 16-17 year old be going to stuff like this and no one (parent wise) speak up. Sorry for the rant. Carry on.
ReplyCancel@talkstoomuch exactly! A consenting, of age person who attends a party such as that surely should know what's gonna happen. I didn't think minors could go either. Even I know you don't go to a party like that expecting soft drinks, Cheetos, and board games. Come on.
ReplyCancelEven if Singer's parties are notorious, no one attends a party expecting to to be raped.
The most damning thing about this is that Singer associates with the known leader of a pedophile ring. Google Marc Collins-Rector or Digital Entertainment Network (DEN) for more info. There's are good Wiki articles about both.
ReplyCancelSinger likes young guys even very young guys apparently like Hugh Hefner likes very young women.
Singer's parties are not different to Hefner's parties in my opinion.
The difference between Singer and Hefner is that Hefner wants to be sure they're legal contrary to Singer( who doesn't care)
Why were photos allowed to be taken at these parties? If you're in the closet and going to gay orgies, wouldn't you be like, "no photos!" Seems like a great way to get blackmail material on famous closeted celebrities. I wonder if anyone has gotten roles that way.
ReplyCancelCan someone tell me why gay sex is treated like drugs in the 80's? There are all these predatory pushers, hey kid do you wanna get high or I'll shot you. It's just some bs. When I was a younger bunny I knew what scenes would be too fast for me. I knew that everyone will be doing e and having sex, maybe I won't go. I just said I had something else to do and no one cared (more drugs for them). I have been invited to go back stage or got a call from the celeb you gave your number to and let it go to voicemail. I find the threatening way it is portrayed as a little ridiculous. Also just like drug dealers aren't trying to force drugs on you for free on threat of death, semi attractive successful gay men are like George Clooney (Perhaps in more ways, if gossip is believed) where folks are just lining up to be the next boy toy. Rant over.
ReplyCancelI don't really see how being outed, even with a graphic photo, would be a career killer anymore. The photo would be embarrassing but that would fade pretty quickly. Your picture would be added to the People Magazine online slideshow of happily out celebrities and everybody would move on to the next bit of trivial gossip.
ReplyCancelThe Complaint against Singer is a federal one. It would have to be seeing the attorney is from FL. It's also a civil not criminal one. The question is why is the attorney leaking the complaint and witness list to RadarOnline? My best guess is to get the word out that they expect a significant payoff and apparently there is a lot of income potential from several sources. They are in effect saying: "money will make this disappear". I really doubt they brought this suit for altruistic motives as there is no criminal complaint. But with the LA and environs law enforcement being beholden to the film industry and all, I'm thinking what's the point. Anyway, I think it's all about the payday.
ReplyCancelLet's just pretend it is Renner for a second.
-he's declared, on multiple occasions, and often in very strong and profane words, that he's not gay. He has publicly bearded and has a child with one of his beards, reported to be significantly paid off. To be photographed getting a blow job from a 19 year old male at an infamous gay sex orgy would be gossip that would follow him eternally.
Zachary Quinto – to name a recently out male actor – never bearded, never issued forceful and profane statements that he was straight, etc. So there's no lie to confess to. The only way John Travolta (or someone else dogged by relentless gay rumors) could come out, after all the deception, is to retire from public life. For like a decade.
I think a gracious statement explaining why you felt pressure to stay closeted for years and are thankful that you no longer need to live that lie would put it to bed in an instant. How long did the gossip universe wait for Jodie Foster to finally come out? When it happened it was a non-story. Most of the commentary was about the rambling nature of the speech, not the actual coming out.
ReplyCancelI tend to believe that where there's smoke, there's fire when it comes to sexual abuse cases. Now and then you do hear about a Duke Lacrosse team thing (and I believe false accusers should be prosecuted for the sake of true victims) but most of the time there is something to situations like this. Standing up and talking about being victimized must be incredibly tough, and even a large payday wouldn't make it worth all the scrutiny, time involved, and sometimes, professional (not to mention the stigma) consequences.
Call me naive, but that's my point of view.
ReplyCancelJake Gyllenhall for an actual guess. And yes, it's not so much about the US market anymore, the Asian and Indian markets do not want gay action heroes.
There are pictures of the Singer parties on Queerty, well the well known public one. There are alleged (and fairly believable) accounts from other Singer parties on Datalounge, including very specific Spacey behavior. The info is out there is you want to find it. At some point, Singer made an "effort" to make sure his boys were men of consent age, but since he was paying, a few probably lied.
Give Hugh credit for being much more careful. His parties are usually 21+ with a few exceptions because that's the legal drinking age in California, and he tries to be nice to his neighbors to keep them quiet about the traffic and noise. Singer deserves what ever is coming to
ReplyCancelA couple things:
1. Of course it's about the money. He is suing Singer. Damages in 99 percent of civil cases are money damages. It's not wrong, unusual, or indicative of the plaintiff's motive.
2. Egan absolutely accuses Singer of rape. From the lawsuit: Defendant Singer then assisted Plaintiff to their room where he again anally raped Plaintiff."
3. The lawsuit describes how promises to help careers would be made, but never materialize. The young men Singer and his buddies preyed upon were probably from such fucked up backgrounds and so desperate for a better life, that they were particularly vulnerable. It's despicable behavior, and makes it difficult to sit back and blame the victim.
ReplyCancelThere was a woman on MSNBC this morning talking about sex trafficking. She was approached when she was a lonely, awkward 17 year old, she was told she was beautiful and that she would be signed to an agency and given acting lessons if she left home. So, that's what she did. Surprise, she was locked into a house with others and made into a hooker. So yes, people are very vulnerable to promises of dreams come true, at all ages. It happens every week when the lottery jackpot goes really high, but that doesn't involve rape, just a lighter wallet.
Manipulation surfaces in our lives in many ways. We've all been victims of it, to varying degrees.
ReplyCancelRenner had a blind earlier this week about his kid being a stand in prop to protect his closet. The 'model' is not the bio-mother-its Renner's sister. Oy what a mess. This is so f*cking sad actors have to resort to these tactics. I hate how homophobic our society is. Rant over.
