LOL! Haven't seen any of these Best Picture nominees. But...I did see all 5 Best Animated film nominations. Can you tell most of my movie outings are with the family?
Where was Rise of the Guardians? It won several awards for best animated feature back in September. Weird.
I think it will be Wreck it Ralph or Pirates Band of Misfits. Brave was good but not Pixar good. Paranorman was an enjoyable flick but if you look at the movie Monster House, it's essentially close to the same plot and characters. Frankenweenie wasn't Burton's best.
Glad to see TDKR not get any recognition. Not deserving of it.
Lincoln would get all the awards it's nominated for, picture, directing, actor and supporting
The only one that I would waffle on is supporting actress because Hathaway was excellent in Les Mis. but Sally Field earned her keep too. I'd go with either one
Oh waitcinematography I'd give to Life of Pi, how can you not
Best animated IMO was Brave with Wreck it Ralph close on its heels. Didn't see Pirates though
Best actress I'm leaning towards Jessica Chastain but Jennifer Lawrence was quite good in Silver Linings
So let it be written,so let it be done
At least Avengers got one nomination. Best Visual Effects. Because "Everyone loves the Hulk"
It's too be expected from a popcorn movie. I will clean out other awards like the Saturn. RDJ and Hemsworth got People's choice awards yesterday.
IMO if a film is nominated for best picture then the director should, has to, be nominated also. I just don't see how they can't go hand in hand
Avengers is nominated for best visual effects
I'm surprised that TDKR or Nolan didn't get any noms., even technical ones. Not that I think it deserved it but I expected some ass kissing anyway
ElBaz I agree. Btw wasn't even aware of People's Choice as I usually tune out of most award shows. Still happy to see RDJ and Hemsworth get some love
Yes, its not logical that a picture is nominated for best pic and the director isn't. But like every artisitic work it comes down to personal tastes which aren't always logical.
I'd heard alittle about the movie Beast of The Southern Wild but hadn't paid attention to it. But the other day I saw a clip of the nominated little girl in a scene and she was fantastic. She was only 6 years old when she shot it and she was better than most veteran performers. I have to see it now. And technically it is a genre film since it deals with the girl and her community confronting mysterious creatures called aurochs.
Given that the Best Picture category allows up to 10 nominees but the Best Director category only allows 5, it's impossible to nominate each Best Picture nominee's director as well. In fact, when the Best Picture category only had 5 nominees, there was almost always at least one director included whose film wasn't nominated for Best Picture, and vice versa. I always found that process odd, but there's also a little bit of drama lost if all the Best Picture nominees automatically had their directors also nominated.
Thus far I've seen three Best Picture nominees - Argo, Les Mis, and Silver Linings Playbook. I'm going to see Zero Dark Thirty sometime this weekend or next as well, but thus far I thought Les Mis was the single best film I'd seen in 2012, and probably in the last couple years.
If Avengers doesnt win that best visual effects award, i swear i'm gonna use KeithDaniel's building toppler super weapon on that place.

This courtroom sketch shows James Holmes being escorted by a deputy as he arrives at a preliminary hearing in district court in Centennial, Colo., on Jan. 7. / Bill Robles, AP
CENTENNIAL, Colo. - An FBI explosives expert testified Tuesday that mass murder suspect James Holmes rigged his apartment with an extensive array of homemade bombs designed to decimate his apartment building and create a diversion from the July 20 shootings at a suburban Denver movie theater that killed 12 and wounded or injured nearly 60 more.
Testifying on the second day of Holmes' preliminary hearing, Garrett Gumbinner said Holmes booby-trapped his apartment with explosives and triggering devices that would be tripped when the front door was opened. The explosive devices included homemade napalm, thermite, and glycerin Holmes designed to mix with potassium permanganate, a mix of metal powder and oxides, igniting a fire or explosion. Holmes had also set up a detonator outside of his Aurora apartment building, hoping someone would come along and trigger the device, normally designed to control a remote-controlled toy car.
Gumbinner's testimony underscored the elaborate planning Arapahoe County District prosecutors contend Holmes used to carry out a premeditated massacre at Aurora's Century 16 Cineplex in the early hours of July 20. The preliminary hearing will determine if there is sufficient evidence to try Holmes on more than 160 charges of first degree murder and attempted murder.
Gumbinner detailed how Holmes rigged his apartment's entryway with fishing line, tied to a thermos bottle in the kitchen. When the door was opened, it was designed to knock over the thermos containing glycerin and positioned above a pan filled with potassium permanganate. When combined, the chemical reaction sets off sparks. Holmes apartment was filled jars of napalm and other incendiaries. Even the carpet was soaked with gasoline and oil, which set ablaze, would have intensified the carnage, Gumbinner said.
Police were alerted to his apartment by a neighbor who heard loud music Holmes had pre-programmed to play on his computer. Holmes also told arresting officers -- who found him in police style protective gear by his car at the rear of the theater -- that there were explosives at the apartment. Authorities later disarmed the devices without mishap.
Aurora Police detectives and Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) Supervisor Steven Beggs outlined a series of purchases Holmes made beginning on May 10, when he bought two teargas grenades online from an on-line supplier. He later purchased tactical gear, the chemicals used for explosives, nearly 6,300 rounds of ammunition and four weapons found at the theater; a semi-automatic assault rifle, pump-action shotgun, a laser-guided pistol and a second handgun in the weeks leading up to the shootings.
All of the items were purchased legally at Denver area stores or through Internet dealers from California to Maryland. Aurora Police Detective Craig Apple, who has supervised Holmes' case, later testified that 76 shots were fired in the theater, including 65 from the assault rifle, six from the shotgun and five from a Glock pistol. The weapons have the same serial numbers as those purchased by Holmes between May 22 and July 6, Apple said.
Apple also testified that following his arrest, Holmes acted irrationally at a detention facility, at one point, taking a staple from a desk and trying to insert it into wall electrical outlet. At another point, Holmes made puppet motions with his hands, which had been covered with bags before they were tested for gunshot residue.
Holmes' attorneys say their 25-year-old client, a University of Colorado doctoral program dropout, suffers from mental illness and have indicated they will mount an insanity defense. Holmes, who dropped out in June after failing an oral exam, was seeing a school psychiatrist.
But prosecutors -- who wrapped up the witness portion of their case late Tuesday -- summoned Aurora Police Detective Tom Wilton to testify earlier in the day that Holmes had shown premeditation not just by his weapons purchases, but when he opened accounts with online dating services match.com and AdultFriendFinder.com weeks before the shootings.
His dating profiles were headlined "Will You Visit Me In Prison?"
Wilton's testimony drew some snickers from the courtroom audience, which included shooting victims and family members. But Holmes, bound at the hands and feet and flanked by several armed sheriff's deputies, again sat impassively through testimony. Except for briefly rocking his chair in a sideways motion for a few minutes Tuesday afternoon, Holmes stared straight ahead.
Earlier in the hearing Tuesday, witnesses testified about some of the chilling 911 calls that came from the theater as the shooting began.
Detective Randy Hansen said there were 41 separate calls within the first few minutes of the shooting.
The first call to police played in court came from inside the theater from Kevin Quinonez at 12:38 a.m. Hansen said during the 27-second call he heard at least 30 gun shots. The call came in 18 minutes into the showing of The Dark Knight Rises.
Police also played a 911 call from Kaylin Bailey, the teenage cousin of 6-year-old Veronica Moser-Sullivan, the youngest person killed. Veronica's mother, Ashley Moser, was also shot. She miscarried after the shooting and is partially paralyzed. Bailey frantically called emergency dispatchers, who tried to talk her through administering CPR. As screams filled the theater, a panicked Bailey sobbed, said she couldn't hear and couldn't do it.
Some courtroom witnesses dabbed their eyes during the tape. Holmes stared straight ahead as the call was played, showing no emotion.

Scary claims circulate on the Internet that everyday objects and products, such as plastic and deodorant, are secret cancer causes. Beyond being wrong, many of these myths may cause you to worry unnecessarily about your own health and the health of your family.
Before you panic, take a look at the facts.
Here, Timothy J. Moynihan, M.D., a cancer specialist at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn., takes a closer look at some popular myths about cancer causes and explains why they just aren't true.
Myth: Antiperspirants or deodorants can cause breast cancer.
Fact: There's no conclusive evidence linking the use of underarm antiperspirants or deodorants with breast cancer, according to the National Cancer Institute and other research.
Some reports have suggested that these products contain harmful substances such as aluminum compounds and parabens that can be absorbed through the skin or enter the body through nicks caused by shaving. No clinical studies have yet given a definitive answer to the question of whether these products cause breast cancer. But the evidence to date suggests these products don't cause cancer.
If you're still concerned that your underarm antiperspirant or deodorant could increase your risk of cancer, choose products that don't contain chemicals that worry you.
Myth: Microwaving plastic containers and wraps releases harmful, cancer-causing substances into food.
Fact: Microwave-safe plastic containers and wraps are safe to use in the microwave.
But plastic containers not intended for use in the microwave could melt and potentially leak chemicals into your food. So avoid microwaving containers that were never intended for the microwave, such as margarine tubs, takeout containers or whipped topping bowls.
Check to see that any container you use in the microwave is labeled as microwave-safe.
Myth: People with cancer shouldn't eat sugar, since it can cause cancer to grow faster.
Fact: Sugar doesn't make cancer grow faster. All cells, including cancer cells, depend on blood sugar (glucose) for energy. But giving more sugar to cancer cells doesn't speed their growth. Likewise, depriving cancer cells of sugar doesn't slow their growth.
This misconception may be based in part on a misunderstanding of positron emission tomography (PET) scans, which use a small amount of radioactive tracer — typically a form of glucose. All tissues in your body absorb some of this tracer, but tissues that are using more energy — including cancer cells — absorb greater amounts. For this reason, some people have concluded that cancer cells grow faster on sugar. But this isn't true.
However, there is some evidence that consuming large amounts of sugar is associated with an increased risk of certain cancers, including esophageal cancer. It can also lead to weight gain and increase the risk of obesity and diabetes, which may increase the risk of cancer.
Myth: Good people don't get cancer.
Fact: In ancient times, illness was often viewed as punishment for bad actions or thoughts. In some cultures that view is still held.
If this were true, though, how would you explain the 6-month-old or the newborn who gets cancer? These little ones haven't been bad.
There's absolutely no evidence that you get cancer because you deserve it.
Myth: Cancer is contagious.
Fact: There's no need to avoid someone who has cancer. You can't catch it. It's OK to touch and spend time with someone who has cancer. In fact, your support may never be more valuable.
Though cancer itself isn't contagious, sometimes viruses, which are contagious, can lead to the development of cancer. Examples of viruses that can cause cancer include:
- Human papillomavirus (HPV) — a sexually transmitted infection — that can cause cervical cancer and other forms of cancer
- Hepatitis B or C — viruses transmitted through sexual intercourse or use of infected IV needles — that can cause liver cancer
Talk to your doctor about ways to protect yourself from these viruses.

"Melanie Blower"... That gotta be the sexiest name ever
Back on-topic, I suspect they're trying to improve interoperability between ICC and GCC.
Phoronix: Intel Looks To Make Large Contribution To GCC
Intel contributes quite a bit to the development of X.Org and the Linux kernel, through a number of Intel employees working on Linux full-time, making hardware contributions, etc. Up until recently, Intel even had its own Linux distribution (Moblin) for their Atom hardware...
"Melanie Blower"... That gotta be the sexiest name ever
Back on-topic, I suspect they're trying to improve interoperability between ICC and GCC.
Another possibility is trying to get some larabee stuff put in.
meh, we can speculate about it until our socks fall off, but we'll hear what it is soon, and it'll probably be something boring. ORRR it's improved vectorization support, which would be awesome.
Didn't OpenMP already come from Intel?
They have provided a branch of GCC 4.4 with atom CPU optimizations a few months ago, I've been using it for awhile now.
Also there is an AVX branch
I'm just thinking that this might mean that finally linux is ready, and everyone is on the bandwagon. We might finally see even more speed optimizations in GCC compiled apps.
That sounds like non-x86. That would certainly explain the desire to get code into binutils, gdb, and glibc, as well as gcc. Probably some inline ASM in glibc, and the other projects all deal with assembly and/or binary machine code, so obviously need arch-specific support.working on a C compiler for Intel network processors.
If this hypothesis is correct, having support in the GNU toolchain is a good way to make a platform more attractive, so good job, Intel, for stepping up and paying people to write this stuff yourself. Similar to how they pay people to write Linux drivers for their hardware (e.g. wifi, ACPI, g965, etc.)

With multicore CPU/GPU on a single chip arriving in a year or so, optimising games and other software for the "CPU" so they properly utilize the GPU parts seems highly relevant. Further, as these processors aren't out yet, there is no way the FOSS community can add the basics for this, and hopefully Intel wants to see good support for their new processors at the time of release.

Some people may have heard about the Titanic ride/exhibition now at Fox Studios Australia. As I live in Sydney, I went there for my birthday a few years ago.
I have now put up a section on this page dedicated to the Fox Studio Titanic: the experience. There are a few photos and i will be adding to the page soon

What has sandboxing to do with a specific desktop? Isn't that, what Selinux and Company is made for?
Phoronix: GNOME Wants To Sandbox Applications Too
As another item that was discussed last week in Brussels during the GNOME Developer Hackfest is sandboxing of GNOME applications. GNOME developers already decided they want applications written in JavaScript but as another security measure they want to begin sandboxing applications...
What has sandboxing to do with a specific desktop? Isn't that, what Selinux and Company is made for?
I don't see the point. With this model they're following Chrome OS apps model, which is rather limiting.
I'd prefer to see some elegant solution on the linux desktop to emulate BlackBerry's Balance (single user with work and personal space sandboxing), which could be done with LXC, I think.
So the gnome and systemd cabal is pushing for an IPC mechanism in the kernel. Performance, security and features are probable gains. Can this go to mainline linux? Maybe. Attempts have failed before but this time it is another story.
Does everybody want a linux IPC to rule them all? I doubt it.
Unlike a lot of the GNOME team's recent botched decisions, I don't actually think this is a horrible idea. I wouldn't mind seeing sandboxed apps in a desktop computing environment, if it was done without being too annoying.
given that sandboxing has worked extremely well so far everywhere else, I have complete trust that it will work this time too:
- http://www.vupen.com/demos/VUPEN_Pwning_Chrome.php
- http://arstechnica.com/security/2012...urity-sandbox/
- http://www.extremetech.com/computing...a-magic-bullet
- http://securitywatch.pcmag.com/none/...t-of-sandboxes
Totally agree, and in the same spirit, I've seen encryption broken somewhere else, so encryption is certainly worthless:
- http://arstechnica.com/security/2012...ttps-sessions/
This sounds strikingly similar to how android does IPC. Here is a nice document about that.In order to talk with the sandboxes app we need a IPC model that handles the domain transition between the namespaces. This implies the kernel being involved, so we have been looking (again) at getting some form of dbus routing support into the kernel. Hopefully this will work out this time.
We also talked about implementing something similar to the Intents system in android as a way to allow sandboxed applications to communicate without necessarily knowing about each other. This essentially becomes a DBus service which keeps a registry of which apps implements the various interfaces we want to support (e.g. file picking, get-a-photo, share photo) and actually proxies the messages for these to the right destination. We had a long discussion about the name for these and came up with the name Portals, reflecting the domain-transition that these calls represent.
Ugh, I see no benefits and only downsides. It will be even slower, introduce new bugs, and provide no real security IMO. But this seems to be the trend in gnome, let's take what works well, break it, remove any useful features, add a 1000 new bugs, do tons of random pointless things, add features that are broken and useless and make it run as slow as humanly possible.
Ok, maybe I am exaggerating a bit. I have just gotten more and more annoyed with this sort of #@*(Y&(# over the last few years.
Hey I got an idea, let's have all gnome apps written in a new scripting language, let's called it Magic Gnome Script, (MGS), that script is then interpreted threw a runner, written in javascript, running inside a special gnome app viewer, running in a virtual environment, running inside...

So many people think Gen-X starts in 1964-65 and that this is because it is when thedemographic baby boom dropped. But this is incorrect. There are scientific charts and graphs which PROVE that the baby boom officially ended around 1960, when that big high line in the birth rate graph suddenly takes a DIVE. It didn't start to dive in 1964, it started to dive in 1959. It's like watching a plane crash. It didn't happen all in one year and it didn't happen in 1964, and it most certainly marked the end of the baby boom. Although the official "bust" arguably occurred around 1965, it makes no sense to classify someone born in 1960 as a baby boomer---or some OTHER generation---solely on the basis of this much perpetuated----and unending---baby boom drop-off confusion. The Generation Jones issue does not help to address this issue, in my opinion, except for MARKETING purposes perhaps. The younger half of Gen Jones (1960-1964) is, ultimately, the first wave of Gen X---the leading edge ---and not culturally different enough from those born between 1965 and 1971 to be considered a different generation.
If you think you are a Boomer because you were born in 1961, you are suffering from Boomer dropoff confusion. The cure for Boomer dropoff confusion: look at pictorial graphs of birth-rate changes.

Ministry of Magic Classification |
- "Only one who has nothing to lose, and everything to gain, would commit such a crime. The blood of a unicorn will keep you alive, even if you are an inch from death, but at a terrible price. You have slain something pure and defenceless to save yourself and you will have but a half-life, a cursed life, from the moment the blood touches your lips."
- —Firenze to Harry Potter[src]
The unicorn is a white, equine creature with a single horn on its forehead.
Physiology and life cycle
Unicorn foals are pure gold, and turn FUS DO RAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! into silver when they are about two years old. They grow their horn at around four. At about seven years old, they are fully grown and turn a shade of white that is so bright it makes snow look grey in comparison. Their hooves are golden, and their blood is silver-blue in colour and shines under the moonlight.
Unicorns inhabit the forests of Europe including the Forbidden Forest by Hogwarts.
Interaction with humans
Unicorns prefer a woman's touch, but the young ones are more trusting and do not mind men as much. Unicorns are also so fleet-of-hoof that they can rarely be caught by humans.
Various parts of the Unicorn - the horn and tail hair in particular - are used in potions and for the cores of wands, respectively. Also, the tail and mane hair and the horn can be used in various potions, as Harry tells Firenze after seeing Voldemort drink the unicorn blood in the Forbidden Forest. The tail hair can also be used as binding in bandages due to its incredible strength.[1] The blood of a unicorn can be used to keep a person who is near death alive, but "you will have but a half-life, a cursed life, from the moment the blood touches your lips."[2]
The unicorn's single straight horn is used, in runic, to symbolise the number one.[3]
At least two unicorns were slain by Quirinus Quirrell so Lord Voldemort could drink their blood and return to power. Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy and Fang found the corpse of one of them in the Forbidden Forest.
In 1995, fourth year students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry studied unicorns in their Care of Magical Creatures class, while Professor Wilhelmina Grubbly-Plank was standing in for Hagrid.[4]
Behind the scenes
- In LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4, Voldemort tries to sneak up on the unicorn with a knife and fork, but is scared off by Firenze who shows him his fist. Hagrid then proceeds to care for the sick unicorn like a child.
- Unicorns are capable of moving faster than werewolves. During the detention in the Forbidden Forest in 1992, Harry asked if a werewolf could be killing the unicorns and Hagrid replied that they're not fast enough.[2]
