Jack Hancock, my Grandfather
Grandfather Jack Hancock; 1880-1928
Upstairs I'm reading Zora Neale Hurston's 'Their Eyes Were Watching God', a novel and the downstairs book is 'Black Cloud, The Great Hurricane of 1928' by Elliot Klienberg. Both Florida natives, Hurston's book was published in 1937 and Kleinberg's in 2003. Hurston's fictional account of what happened to the Black folks around Florida's Lake Okeechobee mirrors Kleinberg's documentary reporting of the events surrounding the devastating hurricane. The two books are definitely enhancing my understanding of this chapter in American history. There's another reason for me reading these books.
My grandfather, Jack Hancock, perished in this hurricane of 1928.
His story begins at Williston, Barnwell county, South Carolina with his birth in 1880. A sharecropper, he and his family suffered under the boot of the Jim Crow south where circumstances undoubtedly forced him to remove his family to New York in the early 1920's.
One of his daughters, my Aunt Sayde, was thrown into a holding pen with drunks and criminals, for staring at a dress in a for-whites-only shop window. Armed with revolvers, her father and uncles shot her out of that pen.
One of his sons, my Uncle Robert, struck his white teacher and had to leave Williston immediately.
One of his brothers, my Grand Uncle Jim, was murdered.
Another brother, my Grand Uncle Tink, was a bootlegger and constantly involved in shootouts.
Uncle Robert ended up in Buffalo, New York and then Rochester where he summoned his family to join him. Grandfather Jack and Grandma Willa along with the older children, Uncle Leonard and Aunt Sayde went north. My mother, Pearle, and Uncle George had to stay behind with their Uncle Tink until they were called for. They were the youngest.
According to family oral history, once somewhat settled, Jack went back down South to Florida to make some money building cabanas during the real estate boom. That's when he met up with the Great Hurricane of 1928. The whites were buried in pine boxes and the blacks were gathered into large piles - and burned.
There's no gravesite or headstone for my grandfather, Jack Hancock.

It's hot out there! And if your Golden Retriever or long-haired kitty seems to suffer when the mercury rises, you might feel some temptation to break out your grooming tools and give your pets a full shave-down. We get where you're coming from.
But wait! Put down those clippers! According to experts, you'll be doing your pet a disservice. Here's why:
- While you or I would hate to sport a fur coat in 100-degree weather, your pets' fur coats are actually providing them with heat relief.
"A dog's coat is kind of like insulation for your house," explains Dr. Louise Murray, Senior Vice President of the ASPCA Animal Hospital. "Insulation stops your home from getting too cold in winter, but it also keeps it from overheating in summer—and your dog's coat does the same thing."
Dogs' coats have several layers, and these layers are essential to your dog's comfort in the heat. Robbing your dog of this natural cooling system can lead to discomfort and overheating. And keeping your dog cool isn't the only reason to leave his coat intact, Dr. Murray warns.
- Your dog's coat prevents your pup from getting sunburn and helps protect her from skin cancer.
To protect your pet from sunburn and skin cancer, save longer walks for evenings, and consider applying pet-specific sun block to thinly covered areas like the bridge of your dog's nose, the tips of his ears and his belly, Dr. Murray suggests, noting that pets with thin coats, as well as those with white or light-colored coats, are especially at risk for sun damage.
- There are better ways to manage your pets' coats to keep them cool: trimming and brushing.
"It's OK to trim your long-haired dog's long hair, such as any hair that hangs down on his legs," Dr. Murray says. Just never attempt to clip mats off your pet's coat with scissors, Dr. Murray adds. And if you've got a long-haired kitty, leave her coat intact. Instead, brush her a little more frequently during the hot summer months.
Of course, pet parents should remember to keep pets inside with plenty of water during hot days—hydration is key! For more important information on summer pet care, visit our Hot-Weather Tips. Stay cool out there!
Dogs don't sweat, it's a well-known fact. They cannot sweat. That's why they pant. Seriously, look it up.
Dogs' primary method of cooling down is by panting, but they DO have sweat glands and DO sweat.
Then You need to find more knowledgable and experienced groomers, cause Their dead wrong. Shaving fur bearing dogs not only removes natural protection, it irritates and destroys their follicles. Their coat can change texture, or not grow back at all, even if they've been shaved for years with no issue. I try to talk my clients out of shaving their pets.
Just get them washed more frequently, and keep them brushed. That will allow them to keep cool properly.
My cat Tiger is part yak it seems. All 3 cats go in and out as the chose. He cannot clean his 6" long-haired fur with a 2" tongue. I call it a shave-down, but they use a #3 clipper so maybe its not what you mean by shaving. He is far happier when he can clean himself fully. I have to say I disagree for cats with long hair.
Of course the groomers would say that, it's their job!
dogs do NOT sweat! They do not have the same body cooling system that we humans have! Do you pant? we are different biologically and it is important you talk to a vet rather than project your own human ness onto your dog.
Dogs don't sweat, Dale. That's why they pant.

A short history of Northern Sun
Northern Sun got its start back in 1979, right before radiation
started leaking from the Three Mile Island nuclear plant in
Harrisburg, PA (March 28, 1979). Riding a bicycle and carrying
a backpack full of t-shirts, etc., Scott (the owner) began
selling message-oriented items at anti-nuke events.
In 1980, Ronald Reagan was selected President, creating a big
demand for anti-war stuff. G W Bush was good for business too.
Who are you?
We're a small group of individuals who work for a company that sells progressive,
message-oriented t-shirts, button, stickers, etc. through a paper catalog and on our
website. Northern Sun also does events, but these are mostly done by Scott, the owner.
Northern Sun donates to local community radio (kfai.org), the Midwest Renewable Energy Assoc
(midwestrenew.org), the Institute for Justice and Democracy in Haiti (ijdh.org), Women Against
Military Madness (wamm.org), the Resource Center of the Americas (americas.org) and others.

SUBJECT: Chelsea Botsch and Katie Warrington Lead Wilmington Softball to Doubleheader Sweep at USciences
Pitching once again dominated the diamond for the Wilmington University softball team on Thursday, as Chelsea Botsch and Katie Warrington led the team to a 5-2 and 3-0 sweep over Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference foe University of the Sciences at McNeil Field.
Each pitcher went the distance for the Wildcats (18-14, 5-3 CACC), who won for the sixth time in a row and seventh in their last eight games overall to move above .500 in the conference for the first time this season. The University of the Sciences (12-12, 8-6 CACC) fell to .500 overall, being hurt by three errors and five unearned runs in the first game.
Wilmington got off to a hot start in the first game, jumping out to a 3-0 lead, scoring all three runs with two outs. With the bases loaded, Skye Boris singled into right field to score the first two runs of the game. Rachel Painter reached on a fielding error, the second of the inning, to allow the visitors to jump up 3-0 before the Devils even came to bat.
Jillian Stafford made it 4-0 in the top of the second, singling home Emily Nowell with another unearned run charged to Courtney Spina. The starter went all seven for the Devils, giving up five runs but with only one earned run.
The Devils split the deficit in half with a pair of runs in the bottom of the third, but Botsch buckled down for the rest of the way to even her season record to 6-6. Cambria Ziemba gave the Wildcats its fifth and final run of the game in the sixth, hitting a single down the left field line, scoring Shelby Thompson from second.
Botsch struck out seven batters while only walking one, allowing two runs on six hits. The sophomore has now won each of her previous three appearances, lowering her earned run average to 2.77.
The bats didn't jump out as quickly in the second game, but Warrington was up to the task to keep the Devils down and allow the Wildcats to get on the board.
Warrington recorded the first six outs by strikeouts, needing the sixth one to get out of a first and second jam in the second inning.
After getting out of the inning unscathed, the Wildcats put the only run they would need on the board in the top of the third off Devil started Cassie Lapotsky. Ziemba started the inning with a leadoff walk, followed promptly by an infield single from Brook Ash. Both runners moved up 60 feet on a passed ball, allowing Christin Headley's single to left field to score Ziemba for the games' first run.
Warrington responded with a shutdown inning in the bottom of the third and recorded another strikeout in the fourth to bring the Wildcats back up to the plate in the fifth.
Once again Ziemba was the catalyst for the rally, leading off the inning with a walk. Ash singled through the left side to put two runners on once again. Headley squared and laid down a sacrifice bunt, moving the runners up a base before an errant throw by the first baseman allowed Ziemba to score for the 2-0 lead. Stafford followed with a single back up the middle, scoring Ash to give the Wildcats the 3-0 lead.
More than enough runs for Warrington on Thursday afternoon.
The senior pitcher finished with 12 strikeouts to record double digit punch outs for the eighth time this season. Warrington improved to 10-2 on the season, winning for the fourth straight game. She now carries a 1.11 earned run average.
The Wildcats remain on the road for one more doubleheader when they head to Bloomfield for another CACC matchup. The team will head to Bloomfield on Saturday for a pair of games with the first starting at 1:00 p.m.

Spring is here, which means summer is right around the corner. With summer's arrival come vacations, swimsuits and a change in apparel. It is time to throw in your cozy winter sweaters for something a little lighter. Are you feeling a little "soft" after a cold, long winter? If so, keep reading for a few tips to prep your body for summer.
Jump on the NordicTrack x9i and increase the incline by 40% to really work your glutes. Walking at an incline will greatly increase the intensity of your cardio workout while toning your backside.
Do more than just the basic crunch because they only target a limited area of your core. There are many moves that can strengthen and tone your core, i.e. the plank, the bicycle and v-sits.
Unlike creams, gels, and wishes, jumping rope is the most effective way to rid your butt and thighs of cellulite. In addition to blasting cellulite, this great workout shapes your calves and strengthens the heart.
If you don't do this already, make this a regular addition to your workout program. Squats are possibly the best weight-training exercise you can do to improve your lower physique. They will tone your thighs and glutes while burning calories making this a double reward.
Doing intervals instead of slow steady cardio will burn more calories, and help you get results in a shorter period of time.

3D Modeling of Impedance Spectroscopy for Protein Detection in Nanoneedle Biosensors
H. Esfandyarpour1,2, A. Maiyegun1, and R. W. Davis21Center for Integrated Systems, Department of Electrical Engineering, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA
2Stanford Genome Technology Center, Stanford, CA, USA
We present a preliminary investigation of a Nanoneedle biosensor as an ultra sensitive and localized impedance biosensor using COMSOL.
This preliminary study was performed to prove the feasibility of the impedance biosensor for detection of protein or nucleic acids. By monitoring the change in capacitance and impedance of this structure, we aim to characterize and classify biological species such as protein or nucleic acids as they are attached.
Our localized geometry and monitoring approach aims to overcome some of the current limitations of biosensors. Impedance biosensors have enormous potential for point of care diagnostics; situations where low cost, small instrument size and speed of analysis are crucial.

What can they do? They gotta build the whole house and fix what's broken. I think everyone is expecting decent working 2.1 support at end of year releases. And I don't think everyone is expecting 3.0 and 4.0 to work perfectly till next end of year releases.
Die shrinking is slowed to a crawl so 4.0 is end of the line for many many years. But still best get there as quick as possible as it will be selling cards for quite some time.

Have you ever heard of any country controlled and ruled by a joint-stock company?
This happened in India. The East India Company ruled an entire country of huge size for 101 years (1757–1858). During this time they did almost everything they wanted to do and won almost every battle in India. That was like the Russian natural gas company Gazprom administering Brazil – incredible.
But, what was the principle of the successful gradual takeover of India by Britain?

As noted by other reviewers, this jacket is not for warmth. However, as a Floridian dealing with frequent unexpected rain, this is a great stylish topper piece. It does run a tad large and the sleeves were longish (although the contrast neon yellow on the khaki jacket looks nice). I liked the collar okay, but would've liked a hidden hood better as well. Still, this was a great versatile find!
May 15, 2013
Not sure it's worth keeping...
I was prepared for the thinness based on others' reviews, but I am disappointed at how big my usual size runs in this jacket. I love the neon yellow accents against the khaki, and I didn't find the fabric see-through. Even still, I don't know if it'll be useful. Maybe on a rainy day with temps in the 60s? It sure won't keep you warm, but it might be a nice slicker on a rainy spring or summer day.
May 13, 2013
Beautiful, good for spring
I love the yellow color. Really beautiful material, too. It looks high quality and classy. Very lightweight though; not meant for warmth. Not lined. I will love wearing this in the spring. It runs big.
April 15, 2013
Lightweight and great color
I have this jacket in red and I love the color. Very light-weight and will be a great piece for spring. There are many pockets and it's perfect for a windy day. The only problem I have with this jacket is the belt sometimes falls out.
April 7, 2013
colors are must have
The only downside to this is the lack of a hoodie. I mean, a hidden one would have been fine.
Yellow and red are MUST have colors. I can't stress enough how amazing of a last touch is to have either color.
fits well, not sure how practical, but fashion isn't about practical.
March 27, 2013
Nice lightweight jacket, odd collar
This is a nice lightweight jacket, good for the springtime. The jacket fits well in my usual size S. However, the collar looks odd either way it can be worn. It would have been better to have a detachable hood instead of the bulky collar.
March 23, 2013
I really like this jacket. Yes, it is thin, but it's stylish and fits perfectly. I ordered red. It's bright and beautiful. I think this will be excellent for spring!
March 10, 2013
Very Stylish
I ordered both the red and navy online. I kept the red, it popped. I returned the navy, it was blaa on me. I ordered knowing how thin it is because of the other reviews. It is very thin but very cute.

Japan's bargain Kei Cars
Kei cars are a uniquely Japanese phenomena which began as a tax and insurance stimulus for the Japanese car industry in the post WWII era. Kei regulations only restrict physical size, engine displacement and power, so manufacturers have used every square centimetre and stacked it with as many advanced technologies as possible. The top-selling Kei car is Suzuki's Wagon R which offers a DOHC VVT 660cc engine, CVT transmission, engine stop-start, EBD, ABS, plus a Viscodrive coupling that provides on-demand AWD capability without electronics. Prices start at under 10 million yen (USD 9100) and the fully optioned Wagon R still comes in at under USD15,000. Maybe we need a similar stimulus based around size and emissions.

Tuesday morning federal headlines - Nov. 20, 2012
Tuesday - 11/20/2012, 8:43am EST
The Morning Federal Newscast is a daily compilation of the stories you hear Federal Drive hosts Tom Temin and Emily Kopp discuss throughout the show each day. The Newscast is designed to give FederalNewsRadio.com users more information about the stories you hear on the air.
- The Food and Drug Administration has a poor reputation, harming its ability to attract top scientific talent. That's the main conclusion in a new report from the Partnership for Public Service. The report says scientists don't see FDA as a place they can innovate, compared to agencies such as the National Institutes of Health. The report also says criticism from Congress and regulated industries hurts FDA recruitment and retention. Still, the report says FDA has made progress thanks to a hiring roadmap it started developing in 2010. (Partnership for Public Service)
- Would-be presidential management fellows can spend the Thanksgiving weekend touching up their applications. That's because they've been given an extra week. Applications are now due Monday, Nov. 26. Not that the process has gotten any easier. A notice on the program's website says the multi-phase process takes patience and endurance. Last year, the fellows program received 9,000 applications. Only 630 became finalists. The class of 2013 finalists will be notified next March. Then they'll attend a job fair in Washington. (Presidential Management Fellows)
- Chairman Martin Dempsey says there's good reason to ask whether the joint chiefs of staff is distracted by recent tales of misconduct by senior officers. The Pentagon has demoted a four-star general for misusing travel money and it's put others' careers on hold pending the results of investigations into Marine Gen. John Allen's relationship with a Tampa socialite. But in a blog post, Demsey says: no, military leaders are not distracted because they cannot afford to be. He says they're concerned but committed to learning and adapting. Dempsey says service members and their families' well-being remains the chiefs' top priority. (DoD)
- A federal panel is recommending HIV testing for all Americans between the ages of 15 and 65. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force believes universal testing will slow the spread of AIDS. The Task Force is made up of outside experts who work through the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. The recommendation is open for public comment until Dec. 17. The task force says more than a million people in the United States have HIV, but 25 percent of them don't know it. That increases the risk they can spread the disease to sexual partners. (U.S. Preventive Services Task Force)
- Congressional leaders say they could strike a deal by Christmas to avoid sequestration. Details are emerging from that meeting Republican and Democratic leaders had Friday with President Barack Obama at the White House. Democratic staff describe a short-term fix to the National Journal. GovExec reported they said they're banking on a bill that has already passed the Senate. It holds tax rates steady for families with less than $250,000, but the wealthy would have to pay more. They said they would work toward entitlement reform next year. Republicans have not ruled this idea out, but they said silence doesn't mean they support it. Leaders may meet again as early as Friday. (GovExec)

A unique contribution to the series, this 1865 volume embodied the grief and shattered hopes of foreign governments and common people, both at home and abroad, upon learning of President Abraham Lincoln's assassination on April 14, 1865.
This release is part of the Office's ongoing project, in partnership with the University of Wisconsin Digital Collections Center, to digitize the entire Foreign Relations series. These volumes cover events that took place between 1948 and 1951 and were originally published in print between 1973 and 1998.
This volume is the second of two volumes that document U.S. efforts to achieve a negotiated settlement to the Arab-Israeli dispute.
To mark the centenary of the First World War, the Office of the Historian and U.S. Embassy France have carried out a study into the role of the U.S. diplomatic corps stationed in France during 1914–1918.
This volume covers the organization and management of the foreign policy process and the development of U.S. public diplomacy.
This compilation focuses on the creation and overseas work of the Committee on Public Information (CPI). The CPI's foreign work constituted a sustained effort to educate a foreign public about the United States, and, in particular, its role in the war effort.
This volume documents the intellectual foundations of the Carter administration's foreign policy. The documentation seeks to illustrate the collective mindset of administration officials on foreign policy issues in the broadest sense.
This volume documents U.S. policy toward North Africa from 1973 until 1976, as the Nixon and Ford administrations sought to broker settlements to conflicts in the Middle East and to limit Soviet exploitation of tensions in the region.
This volume documents U.S. policy toward Chile from January 1969 to September 24, 1973, when the Nixon administration announced its extension of diplomatic recognition to the military junta under General Augusto Pinochet.
The focus of this volume is U.S.-Western European relations during the Nixon and Ford administrations, 1973-1976.
The focus of this volume is on U.S. policy towards the Eastern Mediterranean region during the Carter administration.

Once Again
Sunrise, here we come
The secrets to Stonehenge and beyond
Trip Start
May 31, 2006
Trip End
For some reason I was always under the impression that Stonehenge was way up in northern England. I was delighted to find that is was actually about a 2.5 hour drive from London. So Saturday morning, we were about to cancel our road trip due to the BBC's disheartening weather forecast : rain, rain and more bloody rain. Since bad weather is already starting to get on my nerves, I refused to go but Ed dragged me out of the house and into the car.
He was right to do so, because as we were driving through the English rolling countryside, a break in the clouds illuminated the hills with the scattered herds of white cotton balls in the distance, and the damp bark of the bare trees, and the stacks of golden hay in the middle of a lime-green field. Yes, today we were being blessed with the presence of He who does not reign in these Nordic parts, but who would seem rather more of a guest: my friend the Sun.
We arrived to Stonehenge surprised to find hardly any people which was encouraging. Nothing worse than having to dodge other people while taking pictures of a landmark such as this one. Our first look upon the stones was breathtaking; they were much better than I had imagined them! The sun was glittering off the stones' surface and a bunch of black crows lazily hung around looking for worms, or just resting on the ancient rocks.
The audio tour said that Stonehenge literally means hanging stones and that the site is around 2,500 years old. Its strange to think about how humans lived in the Bronze Age, or even if the area looked the same then as it does now, with its wavy treeless landscape. The most accepted theory of Stonehenge's reason of being is the accurate alignment of the stones with the Summer and Winter solstices built with mathematical precision. Some scholars attribute them to the Druids while some others to the Romans, and some to aliens. There are many supernatural folktales written throughout the centuries starring Merlin the wizard, Uther Pendragon and the Devil himself, trying to explain their meaning too. Some say it has religious significance while others argue it's a scientific observatory. The only truth is that no one really knows and Stonehenge will remain being a secret. Some things are better kept this way.
I spotted a lonely man in a Druidic white robe contemplating the stones, as if for the first time, with his wooden staff and jeweled medallion. I chased him throughout the site and managed to get a picture with him to which he shyly agreed. He certainly added to the ancient mystic sense of the place. We couldn't tell if he was working for the site or not, but when we spotted him in the souvenir shop looking at trinkets, we decided he was your everyday Stonehenge New Age Druid, and how lucky were we to run across him!
Speaking of lucky, we also ran into our new stalkers: Lucy and David! They knew we were coming and David had mentioned that he wanted to come but needed to persuade Lucy. Glad he did cause they knew the area better, and although we wanted to go to Bath for the rest of the day, we decided to tour the ancient ruins of these parts together.
We followed Lucy and David into Avebury Circle just 20 miles away, which was yet another Neolithic stone site. What remains of the circle now is only a small proportion of what must have been an awe-inspiring place when it was in use over 4000 years ago. What was it used for? Again, no one truly knows. An even if they did know the reason, and just like in Stonehenge, we will probably never know how these technologically challenged primitive humans managed to stand the 50 tone stones upright and hold them there.
These circles were much larger than in Stonehenge, taking up the entire length of the town. That's why the site could be walked in through fields and dirt paths and little hills and over ancient trees, so it was free to see them and you could walk through the earthworks. It wasn't as interesting or as mysterious as Stonehenge but the old stones against the misty meadows were perfect. It was also very muddy which gave Ed the perfect opportunity to humiliate me with pictures while I carefully tip-toed through the squish, to the sound of David's and Lucy's giggles.
Next we headed towards West Kennet Long Barrow, a Neolithic burial site. By this time the sun was long gone and it had gotten gray and horrible, and even started raining. But that didn't stop us. Nor were we stopped by the flooded path we had to cross. Ed came up with the idea of putting plastic bags over our shoes and, wouldn't you know it, Lucy and David had a few plastic bags in the car trunk. It was bizarre when I saw that plastic bags was the ONLY things they had in their trunk. Crazy bag people.
We had a great laugh crossing the small river and a few bypassers stopped to look at our madness. Madness or not, we all got to the other side fairly dry. I can't really complain as I was carried across by Ed on piggy back. We finally started trekking up the long green hill that would take us to the graves. The landscape all around us was stunning and although it was raining, I suddenly saw what was so charming about the mist and rain and gray clouds in the English countryside. One wouldn't be the same without the other.
The graves were trapezoidal earth mounds believed to be collective tombs. The stones were all strategically placed in the entrance of the tombs and the chambers. It was great cause we could walk inside the dark caves, and since no one else was there, the only sound we could hear inside were the tiny droplets of rain falling into puddles. There were white chalk pathways up and over the mounds that looked like patches of snow from afar.
It finally it was lunch time and so after taking a quick glance at Salisbury Hill, which David wanted to illegally trespass and climb, we headed over to Malborough for a late lunch. The town was gorgeous, with the typical Gothic towers and high spires lurking above all the other black and white rooftops. We picked a simple brasserie and enjoyed simple hearty food over pints and more stories.
After the day was done we drove back home under the rain and the forthcoming twilight. The Neolithic sites we had visited were probably the oldest man-made monuments I had ever seen or touched for that matter. All the sites had an arcane feeling to them, of our ancient ancestors lingering on their old sacred grounds, probably wondering what the hell it is we are all doing in their old graves/temples/observatories. They�re keeping their intents and designs secret, as we gaze depthlessly upon their works.

Bill Murray Gossip
Bill Murray gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
SNL40: The Good
Like Saturday Night Live itself, the 40th anniversary celebration show was a mixed bag. Here's everything that was good. Andy Samberg's digital short Because they are ALWAYS good, but this one, sung with Adam Sandler featuring an assist from Chris Parnell, highlighted the history of character breaks on the show. Full Story
CIFF Review: St. Vincent
I have officially hit the halfway point of the Chicago International Film Festival. It is October 16th, and between the festival and squeezing in some commercial releases to meet writing commitments, I've seen sixteen movies so far this month. I have fifteen left to go, including four double-headers. Full Story
Melissa & Bill's big night
FameFlynet, Splash
The highlight of TIFF tonight is probably the premiere for St Vincent at 9pm at the Princess Of Wales theatre. The festival is honouring Bill Murray. They're telling fans to dress up as him. And of course, he'll put on a show, like he always does. All that on top of his performance in the film, said to be one of the best, if not perhaps the best, of his career. Full Story
Dear Gossips,
The best article I read yesterday was about Bill Murray. Murray's film St Vincent will be screening at TIFF. The festival wants to also take the opportunity at the gala to honour Murray's career. Only no one was able to find him. Because, as you know, Bill Murray isn't available like that. It's legendary now how Murray lives his life – disconnected from Hollywood, absent from the carpet, but more likely to show up at some random person's wedding and give a speech.
Apparently a search committee, that included Harvey Weinstein, had to be formed to track Murray down. So he didn't jump when Harvey said "call me back"? LOVE that.
St Vincent was originally intended for Jack Nicholson and written in collaboration with him. Read Full Intro
Lady Gaga: Oscars Most Unwelcome
Fame/ Kevin Winter/ ROBYN BECK/ Getty Images
For someone who claims to exist purely for the fans, Lady Gaga wasn't so much about the fans at the Oscars. The Academy sets up several sections of bleachers along the red carpet where fans can scream at their favourite stars. The call time for the fans is around 10:30am. But celebrities don't start arriving until close to 3pm. Full Story
George is not the best dressed
Kevin Winter/ Getty
Portrait session for The Monuments Men yesterday. George Clooney put a political message on under a leather jacket. But he's been overshadowed. By Cate Blanchett? No. Not even Cate Blanchett. Bill Murray. Please enjoy his pink pants. It's award season and George Clooney's in a film – Gravity – that is in contention for Best Picture. Full Story
The fun dinner party without Stacy Keibler
RKVideo/ Splash
George Clooney is in Germany directing his next film The Monuments Men with Matt Damon, Bill Murray, and John Goodman. Goodman has starred in the last two Oscar winning pictures, right? Will he go 3 for 3 for George? Now this looks like a good time. And especially hilarious, to me at least, is that Bill Murray's on a smartphone. Full Story
Dear Gossips,
Moonrise Kingdom opened Cannes last night. Photos of the cast on the carpet at the Palais including Bruce Willis, Tilda Swinton, Bill Murray, and Edward Norton, who looked sooooooo great and so fresh and not truculent at all, are attached. And how was it?
I love Wes Anderson movies. If you love Wes Anderson movies, you'll probably love Moonrise Kingdom too. I LOVED it. Yes, he is so full of random it borders on pretentious and can, for some, feel smug. No I can't argue against those who would insist that he's odd by choice and as such not really odd but artificial. Not that I agree, but it's pointless to argue. Or, rather, that is the point. There will never be a Show Me The Money! moment in a Wes Anderson movie. This time however there is some emotion. A lot of it. In place of the detachment that accompanies much of his work, Anderson's Moonrise is devastatingly heartfelt. Read Full Intro
Cannes 2012: Heavy on Hollywood
(Lainey: I'm still catching up after flying overnight to Cannes. Trying to rush out a few new articles but let's start first with Sarah's Cannes preview since they're all starting to arrive. I screen Moonrise Kingdom tonight. Attached - the cast at the photo call today.) The Cannes Film Festival is always glamorous and Hollywood is always well represented, but this year seems particularly heavy on the star power, headed, of course, by the Brange. Full Story
Funny people award shows
Less than two hours. Remarks are kept short. No montages. And no James Franco. The First Annual Comedy Awards hosted by Comedy Central took place in New York this weekend. That would have been a good ticket, non? Tracy Morgan presented to Eddie Murphy. Colbert was a bitter bitch, you know, on stage with Jon Stewart. Full Story
Bill Murray hot dog and karaoke
Bill Murray's random amazingness was a regular part of this blog in 2010. Click here for his feature in the Best of the Year article. When he walked into an elevator. And kissed some dude. And then walked back out, ominously declaring "no one will ever believe you". Full Story
Best of 2010: Bill Murray
This was the year I started featuring random Bill Murray stories. Click here and here for a couple of examples. We'll end the year with one too. But first, if you haven't seen Get Low, you should. Full Story
Be jealous
A reader called Leah R sent me this email earlier this week and made me so jealous I couldn't post it until today. Thank you Leah. But I hate you a little. I've been writing about Bill Murray's amazing randomness for a while. Click here Full Story
6 narcissists at the table
This is your weekend assignment. Because who has the time during the week to spend an hour on this, even though it's 60 minutes of pure amazingness? The Hollywood Reporter Actors' Roundtable is embedded below. Enjoy it, maybe over breakfast on Sunday, really savour the experience. I broke it up into two parts on Wednesday night during my playlist making, loved it, but wonder if I would have even more if I hadn't paused. Full Story

FBI Oswald Mexico City File (105-3702)
This version of the FBIs Mexico City file on Lee Harvey Oswald was processed by the ARRB in the 1990s, and thus has far fewer redactions than previous releases. It is, however, not complete - about one-third of the complete file is present here. The file is roughly chronological, and the portion here is from the beginning of the file.

Heading to Kill Devil Hills/Nags Head area next week. Haven't been down in 5 years. I may surf one of the piers, but I problably will just scout out some random sandbar breaks at one of the beach access points in the area to surf in solitude or with my son. So what tides work best in that area?
Also, our family really enjoys doing a day trip down to Hatteras Point, drive our 4x4 out on the beach and make it a day. Last time we went down I didn't take my board to the point. Is there a good surfing area there? Currents look rather treacherous. All I really saw were fisherman everywhere, and it really didn't look like many spots to surf. I know there have to be some good breaks on that "drive on the beach" area. I'm not trolling for a "secret spot" out of anyone, just looking for somewhere surfable down there where the fisherman's lines aren't in the way.

Wednesday November 14th, 2012 at 10:10 AM Well, what a weekend this was. I took the girls on a road trip to Dallas and before we left, they must have read my post about not too much going on in our little family. At least, I know Marleigh did.
Everything was going along just fine. The girls had made friends with the dogs of the family I was visiting, wrestling and playing chase the whole evening. I was so happy that everything was going well on this road trip!
Those feelings vanished over night.
The next morning we all went on a walk...
The Dreaded Grass Awn

Friday November 2nd, 2012 at 03:00 AM It's fall in New Mexico, and in addition to Halloween where ghosts and goblins show up, it's also grass awn season here and they show up in the strangest places.
If you hike with your dog you probably know what I mean when I talk about grass awns. They get stuck in your socks and in your dogs fur, and sometimes they get stuck in other places.

She has a great job in the summer helping Phil spot fires from the Hillsboro peak fire lookout overlooking the Black Range in the Gila National Forest here in South West New Mexico. Our hike was in a super secret valley or arroyo known only to local archeology buffs. We live in an area that was home to the Mimbreno culture about 1000 years ago. Our area is rich in rock...

The topic was how hard it is to be away from home; how you start to miss the little things that you never really thought of, like your own bed, routines, etc. Then the conversation switched to "kids". I put that in quotes because I think the concept of children comes in...

SPORTSBIZ -- KEVIN KLEPS Oddsmakers take a liking to KyrieBy KEVIN KLEPS 9:24 am, February 14, 2013
Would you bet on Kyrie Irving? The 3-point favorites are the Warriors' Stephen Curry and the Knicks' Steve Novak, both of whom are making 44.7% of their attempts from downtown this season. Curry, a 5-2 choice by Bovada to win the contest, leads the league with a norm of 3.1 treys per game. Irving is getting some love from the bookmakers in the showcase event, too. Bovada has given the second-year phenom the ninth-best odds to win All-Star MVP at 15-1 — better than such stars as Dwight Howard and Russell Westbrook. Spending money to make money
The Indians' entertaining offseason is paying off at the box office. You can follow me on Twitter for sports information, analysis and day-by-day updates on the amount of visitors to Indians.com.

Glenda Watson Hyatt: Is Your Blog Disabled?
At the Successful and Outstanding Bloggers Conference (SOBCon) this weekend in Chicago, the famous Left Thumb Blogger, Glenda Watson Hyatt of the Do It Myself Blog rocked the attendees world with her powerful How POUR is Your Blog presentation, reminding us that if our blogs don't meet web standards for accessibility, it could be disabled.
Glenda's powerful presentation wasn't the typical dry stuff of web accessibility. Dry? Boring? That's not possible with Glenda around. She has a wicked sense of humor and used it in her PowerPoint presentation, accompanied by her voice program, Kate, which read her presentation out loud. I've never laughed so hard over such a serious subject as web accessibility.
Glenda has cerebral palsy. It restricts her movement and speech but it doesn't impact her intelligence, though many have labeled her otherwise in the past. In her book, I'll Do It Myself, she shared the trials and tribulations as well as the challenges of being a highly intellectual woman trapped in a body that just can't keep up. I highlighted Glenda in How WordPress Changes Lives, showcasing how WordPress changed her life by giving her a voice that connects with people around the world through her blog.
One of the great points she made was on how to justify using ALT attributes in your blog images: read more

Former PhD-student in Artificial Intelligence, with extensive knowledge of programming, LaTeX (and friends) and font technology. I'm also fairly well versed in cognitive science.
Apart from knowledge in computers and programming, I'm a sceptic (and a Bright). I'm also well-read in dinosaur palaeontology (although strictly as an amateur with no practical experience).
My current day-job is as SysAdmin at the European Spallation Source. Running mostly OS X (incuding Server) but some Windows and Linuxes as well. Currently (as of may 2012) I am on loan to the Integrated Controls Group as a software developer.
Avid Gamer, Role-player and SciFi-fan.
