Gebremariam and G. Dibaba secure Ethiopian double in Atapuerca
Atapuerca (Burgos), Spain – Reigning World Cross Country champion
Gebre-egziabher Gebremariam of Ethiopia captured a thrilling sprint victory
ahead of Spain's Alemayehu Bezabeh as the new Spanish Cross Country season
kicked off with the '6th Cross Internacional de Atapuerca' today on a cold
and very windy day.
On the women's side, Ethiopia's current World junior Cross Country champion
Genzebe Dibaba snatched a convincing eight-second win over Kenya's Ines
*MEN – Gebremariam defeats quality line-up *
The 8.76km men's race offered a star-studded field with no less than four
top-10 finishers from the last World Cross Country championships in
contention - Gebremariam, the Kenyan pair of Mathew Kisorio (6th) and Mark
Kiptoo (7th) plus the Eritrean Teklemariam Medhin (9th).
It was the powerful Eritrean contingent – also comprising Samuel Tsegay, who
was a solid fifth at last month's World Half Marathon Championships with a
1:00:17 PB – that ruled the race in the early stages while the hot
favourites Gebremariam and the Ethiopian-born Bezabeh ran comfortably tucked
Firstly the Ethiopian and then the Spaniard were in charge of the leading
group but it was Medhin who made a decisive move with the clock reading 16
minutes; only Gebremariam and Bezabeh could live with his frantic pace.
However, the 20-year-old Eritrean started to fade once he was overtaken by
his rivals with last year's victor Bezabeh pushing hard inside the last
kilometre while Gebremariam remained at the Spaniard's shoulder with ease.
The key moment came with some 80m left when the reigning World champion
found another gear to pass Bezabeh and romp home in 24:41 while the Spaniard
was given the same time. Medhin completed a classy podium three seconds in
The winner was quoted as saying: "Before the race, I was worried because of
the bad weather but as long as the race developed I felt better and better.
I was making my cross country debut for the season so my performance was
really a question mark. Happily, everything was fine in the end. Once the
race got underway I realised the wind was very annoying and decided to save
energy for the final sprint."
As for Bezabeh, the 23-year-old Madrid-based rising star declared: "I'm
satisfied with my result although the wind prevented my victory in the
sprint. Anyway I have been beaten by the World champion!"
*WOMEN – Dibaba's successful start on the senior scene*
The women's 4.825km contest soon became a two-horse battle in the guise of
double (2008 & 2009) World Junior Cross Country champion Genzebe Dibaba and
Kenya's Ines Chenonge, a creditable 10th placed last March in Amman.
The 27-year-old Kenyan dictated the early pace of the race with only the
youngest of the Dibaba sisters for company. Last summer, both athletes
clashed on the occasion of the World Championships in Berlin over 5000m with
Chenonge (sixth) prevailing over Dibaba, who finished eighth at the age of
The Ethiopian, who is still eligible for the Junior race at next March's
World XC Championships to be held in Bydgoszcz, injected a brisker pace with
500m to go and found no answer from Chenonge, taking away some kind of
revenge from her Berlin loss to the Kenyan. Dibaba, who is also the reigning
World Junior 5000m silver medallist, was timed at 14:53 while Chenonge
crossed the line eight seconds adrift.
The fight for the minor place on the podium became a tight sprint between
two reigning European bronze medallists such as Portugal's Ines Monteiro
(Cross Country) and Ireland's Mary Cullen (3000m indoors) with the
29-year-old Monteiro getting the better of the Irishwoman by just one second
although well back (22 seconds) from the winner.
Spain's World 3000m Steeplechase champion Marta Domínguez came a distant
19th some 1:31 behind Dibaba; reportedly, the 34-year-old Spaniard is far
from her best form due to the number of media and publicity appearances on
her schedule since winning the European Athlete of the Year honour.

Alchemist and Evidence Team Up as The Step Brothers
The Step Brothers

[Editor's note: Weekly scribe Jeff Weiss's column, "Bizarre Ride," appears on West Coast Sound every Wednesday. His archives are available here.]
You can't re-acclimate to high school after spending a year getting high with Cypress Hill. But Alchemist got an A for attempting to graph quadratic equations in the fall of 1994, after he'd already hot-boxed across the country on the Soul Assassins tour.
Barely old enough to buy a Beamer, Alan Maman had already learned industry rule No. 4080: Record-company people are shady. After one commercially inert single, label Tommy Boy shelved The Whooliganz, his teen-rap duo with future Hawaii Five-0 Danno Scott Caan.
Blunts on the bus with B-Real became pipe tokes every morning at 8:15 -- as soon as he got safely out of sight of his parents' Beverly Hills house. The dial was always cranked to Howard Stern on 97.1 FM, until the signal faded as Sunset Boulevard exhaled onto PCH. Then the 16-year-old Alchemist would slip in a cassette of beats and rhymes laced the night before with an ASR-10 sampler and four-track.

School was Colin McEwen High, an education sinecure in a Malibu shopping center. Classmates included Nicole Richie, Roy Orbison's son and Mike Einziger of Incubus. His closest friend was Venice-raised Michael Perretta, later raptized Evidence.
"School was a fucking joke. We'd be fully high ... blasted," Alchemist recalls at his Venice studio, surrounded by Evidence and an abundance of THC and vinyl wax.
After two decades, the longtime allies formed The Step Brothers, whose debut, Lord Steppington, drops this month on Rhymesayers. Full of inside jokes and absurd film clips, it's as rewindable and ruthlessly stoned as a Beatnuts record.
"We could see the waves breaking from the campus," Alchemist continues. "You'd work for an hour and then we'd have discussion time. They ask, 'What do you want to talk about?' We'd be, like, 'WEED!!!' "
"School ran from 9 [a.m.] to 1 p.m., but we couldn't make it to 1, so it was more like 9 to noon. Then we'd go record and smoke at Al's house," Evidence laughs conspiratorially.
If this narrative sounds vaguely Malibu's Most Wanted, you've never absorbed the barbecued-lung griminess of either man's music. Since graduating nearly 20 years ago, both Alchemist and Evidence have achieved levels of rap respect and success more common to kids from South Central than from west of La Cienega.
After graduation, Alchemist enrolled at New York University, but he quickly opted to study under DJ Premier and eventually place beats on records from the likes of Mobb Deep, Nas, Nelly and Lil Wayne.
Evidence stayed local and formed Dilated Peoples. When Fat Beats was still brick-and-mortar on Vermont, Dilated ruled the underground, selling 5,000, 10,000, then 15,000 copies of their 12-inches -- eventually earning a Capitol deal.
Sending asphalt beats from back East, Alchemist supplied the trio's sound.
Over the last half-decade, a Dilated Peoples hiatus allowed Evidence to pursue a solo career, while Alchemist moved back to L.A. and formed his own West Coast Wu-Tang, four blocks from the beach. Casting himself in the RZA role, he has directed metal and smoke classics from Prodigy, Boldy James, Curren$y and Action Bronson.
Step Brothers are another armored suit -- two old friends exchanging friendly jabs and caustic raps. The Whooliganz even reunite with an assist from an Odd Future member.
"Either he played a big trick on me or I tricked myself, but it never once felt like work," Evidence says. "Some albums might have bigger drums or faster rappers, but when you listen, the funk is there."
"I need to leave open a variable in my equations because nothing is for sure. I know I'm ill and the people are around me are ill and the weed is good and the speakers are on," Alchemist summarizes their last two decades of collaboration. "The older I get, the more I realize that the wisest person knows that they know nothing.
"It has to be fun. If it isn't, what the fuck are you doing it for? Working together ... we get high off this shit."

Seriously, there is a time — and a reason — to back off a little when the game is over. Soon to be MVP Derrick Rose showed why Tuesday night.
Rose rolled his ankle on the final, meaningless possession of the Bulls 103-95 loss to the Hawks Tuesday. With seven seconds left and the Hawks up eight Jamal Crawford dribbled the ball up court to run out the clock, and normally guys just back off and let the clock run out because the game is over.
But Rose decided to pressure the ball, and in doing so stepped on Crawford's foot and rolled his ankle. This is the same ankle he rolled in Game 4 against the Pacers, and once you do that once it is more susceptible to re-injury until it is fully healed.
We don't know how serious it is, but any injury to Derrick Rose is serious to the Chicago Bulls. Rose said he was going for X-rays after speaking to the media postgame.
The Bulls were shocked by the Hawks in Game 1, but if Rose is even slowed some this series becomes very different.
- winstonhussein - May 3, 2011 at 12:01 AM
If both teams wind up short a starting point guard, what's going to be the new reason everyone will say the Hawks don't stand a chance?
- chitownbulls - May 3, 2011 at 2:14 AM
There won't be a reason to give. The Bulls will be completely done without Rose.
- fordman84 - May 3, 2011 at 1:51 PM
Rose get a case of the Kobe's? Why is it that every loss is followed up with an injured ankle story, only to have the player come back in the next game and play like nothing happened?

September 24, 2012 Riots, filmmaking and the wrong thing to sayhttp://www.jewishjournal.com/blog/item/riots_film_making_and_the_wrong_thing_to_say/ |
In the past week, Muslims from all over the world lost it because of a movie. Since I haven't seen it, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and say it is, in fact, more offensive than any artistic protest ever made before. Does this justify violent behavior on such scale? Does this justify murder? Of course not, nothing does. But it happened anyway. Islamists all over the world were so offended, they didn't set in for the civil reaction which is a legit protest and a request to ban this film. Instead they shook up the world, causing damage on an unbelievable scale because of somebody's opinion on Muhammad. Being extreme is never a good thing, and unfortunately with every religion comes an extreme group which causes all the negative opinion on that religion. That extreme group is usually easily offended and is willing to use all means to protect its honor. Judaism has it and Christianity has it, but the extreme Islamists are by far the worst. First of all, there are more extreme Islamists than extreme Jews or Christians (simply because there are more Islamists in the world, but also in relation to the total number of the religion followers). Secondly, they act more often and tend to shake the world into listening to what they have to say.

Password fatigue
Password fatigue is the feeling experienced by many people who are required to remember an excessive number of passwords as part of their daily routine, such as to logon to a computer at work, undo a bicycle lock or conduct banking from an automated teller machine (ATM). The concept is also known as password chaos or more broadly as identity chaos.[1]
The increasing prominence of information technology and the Internet in employment, finance, recreation and other aspects of people's lives, and the ensuing introduction of secure transaction technology, has led to people accumulating a proliferation of accounts and passwords. According to a 2002 survey of British online-security consultant NTA Monitor, the typical intensive computer user has 21 accounts that require a password.[2]
Aside from contributing to stress, password fatigue may encourage people to adopt habits that reduce the security of their protected information. For example, an account holder might use the same password for several different accounts, deliberately choose easy-to-remember passwords that are too vulnerable to cracking, or rely on written records of their passwords.
Other factors causing password fatigue are
- unexpected demands that a user create a new password
- unexpected demands that a user create a new password that uses particular pattern of letters, digits, and special characters
- demand that the user type the new password twice
- frequent and unexpected demands for the user to re-enter their password throughout the day as they surf to different parts of an intranet
- blind typing, both when responding to a password prompt and when setting a new password.
Some companies are well organized in this respect and have implemented alternative authentication methods[3] or adopted technologies so that a user's credentials are entered automatically, but others may not focus on ease of use or even worsen the situation by constantly implementing new applications with their own authentication system.
Password fatigue will typically affect users, but can also affect technical departments who manage user accounts as they are constantly reinitializing passwords; this situation ends up lowering morale in both cases. In many cases users end up typing their passwords in cleartext in text files so as to not have to remember them, or even writing them down on post-it notes which they then stick in a desk drawer.
Single sign-on software (SSO) can help mitigate this problem by only requiring users to remember one password to an application that in turn will automatically give access to several other accounts, with or without the need for agent software on the user's computer. A potential disadvantage is that loss of a single password will prevent access to all services using the SSO system, and moreover theft or misuse of such a password presents a criminal or attacker with many targets.
Many operating systems provide a mechanism to store and retrieve passwords by using the user's login password to unlock an encrypted password database. Microsoft Windows provides Credential Manager to store user names and passwords used to log on to websites or other computers on a network, Mac OS X has a Keychain feature that provides this functionality, and similar functionality is present in the GNOME and KDE open source desktops.
In addition, web browser developers have added similar functionality to all of the major browsers, and password management software such as KeePass and Password Safe can help mitigate the problem of password fatigue by storing passwords in a database encrypted with a single password.
Additionally, the majority of password protected web services provide a password recovery feature that will allow users to recover their passwords via the email address (or other information) tied to that account.
These tools pose the problem that if the user's system is corrupted, stolen or compromised; apart from problems of the data being misused, they can also lose access to sites where they rely on the password store or recovery features to remember their login data. For this reason it is often advised to keep a separate record of sites, usernames and passwords that is physically independent of the system.
Many sites, in an attempt to prevent uses from choosing easy-to-guess passwords, add restrictions on password length or composition which contribute to password fatigue. In many cases, the restrictions placed on passwords actually serve to decrease the security of the account (either by preventing good passwords or by making the password so complex the user ends up storing it insecurely, such as on a post-it note). Some sites also block non-ASCII or non-alphanumeric characters.

Park in the parking lot. Paddle from the beach. In general the best wave is a right that breaks just to the side of the little groin. Low tide is the best and you can expect some barrels, with short punchy rides. Best at 3-4 ft, early in the morning, in summer as the winter banks close out a bit.
It is a fun wave, but does not hold much swell. No locals makes it a favorite for some soul surfers.
It is a great alternative if you do not want to get dropped in on at New Pier and North Beach.

U.S. National Team forward and three-time World Cup veteran Brian McBride announced his retirement from international soccer. The decision brings to an end a 13-year international career that produced 30 goals through 95 matches, leaving McBride as the second all-time leading scorer in team history.
The only player in U.S. history to score in multiple World Cups (1998, 2002), McBride is also the USA's all-time leader in World Cup qualifying goals (10). The three-time World Cup veteran (1998, 2002, 2006) has the second-most appearances for the USA in World Cup matches (10), starting all five games in the 2002 FIFA World Cup and netting the game-winners against Portugal and Mexico. He also netted the USA's lone goal in France '98.
"It was an honor to have a player like Brian McBride at the core of the national team during my tenure," said former U.S. Manager Bruce Arena. "With his goal scoring, ability in the air and intelligence on both sides of the ball, he is truly a player with qualities unlike any other player to wear the national team uniform. I always admired both his commitment and his leadership, and have nothing but the greatest respect for him as a player and a person. I would like to personally thank him for everything he has done for our national team program, and wish him and his family the best of luck for the future."
McBride will continue playing at Craven Cottage. He has scored 19 goals in 54 league appearances for Fulham.

Wide foot, narrow foot, high instep...? Here's a lacing solution for your problem
The tongues of my Asics always slip towards the outer side of the shoe despite lacing through the tongue loop. I've tried lacing criss cross and straight across but nothing seems to help. Any ideas please.
I just pull them tight, tie them in a bow then tuck down the side of my trainers.
I can't stand big bows flapping about. They've got to be neat and streamlined.

Last month, Massimo Giunti of Androni Giocattoli, was found positive for EPO during a targeted out-of-competition test. He was consequently suspended by the International Cycling Union and was quickly pulled out of the Tirreno-Adriatico race.
Androni Giocattoli principal Gianni Savio received the news with shock. This is due to the unexpected result from the blood work done on the 35 year old cyclist. He lamented on the unfortunate turn of events because the team underwent a half-day course on anti-doping last November on their training camp.
Giunti showed an unusual blood profile in his biological passport which led to the testing by the World Anti-Doping Agency in Lausanne, Switzerland. The urine test on February 23 showed positive EPO findings. Giunti can still request for analysis of a B sample.
Savio pushes to point out that this was not a team violation and expects the invite for Giro d'Italia in May to be still…

With the battle to oust Indian Premier League commissioner Lalit Modi shifting to the Board of Control for Cricket in India, the Centre on Wednesday turned its full attention to allegations that the wheels of the T20 juggernaut were being lubricated by political influence peddling and illegal infusion of funds. In a coordinated move, Income Tax officials in Mumbai swooped down on three event management and broadcast firms connected to the IPL, while IT investigators sought financial and shareholding details from the 10 team-owning franchisees across India.
At the political level, BCCI vice-president and Congress MP Rajiv Shukla met Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to apprise him of the developments on the IPL front.
Modi hits back
On his part, Mr. Modi finally hit back at his detractors, challenging the BCCI's right to convene a special meeting of the IPL governing council on April 26. 'Leaked' emails between the IPL boss and BCCI members also mysteriously surfaced on Wednesday, part of the widening armoury of a battle that looks set to become as gladiatorial as the cricket tournament itself.
Amid swirling allegations of benami shares involving politicians and their relatives in the IPL, the Finance Ministry has constituted eight enforcement teams. Their investigations will be spread out across the country with I-T offices in Mumbai, Kolkata, Chandigarh, Delhi, Kochi, Hyderabad, Bangalore and Pune asked to source out information about financial transactions, money flows and team ownership across all franchises.
The Enforcement Wing of the Finance Ministry is also learnt to have sent a team of officials to Mauritius to probe certain "shell companies'' suspected of routing unaccounted money into IPL franchises.
In Kolkata and Chennai, taxmen visited the offices of the Kolkata Night Riders (KKR), owned by Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, and India Cements, which owns the Chennai Super Kings team, "seeking information" on the investments made by their managements in the IPL. I-T officials are slated to visit the premises of the other six IPL teams in their quest for information.
Moving swiftly, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) slapped notices under Section 3 of the Foreign Exchange Management Act. As of now, the ED has registered a case against unknown persons and will inquire into the transfer of foreign funds. But if the name of any person crops up during the inquiry, show-cause notices would be issued to him and he would be included in the case, highly placed sources said.
In Mumbai, a team of over 50 I-T officials started "search" operations on the premises of Multi Screen Media, World Sports Group and Pat Magnarella Management on Wednesday morning. It is alleged that MSM paid WSG a facilitation fee of $80 million for the IPL telecast rights, a deal in which the IPL management is said to be involved. There have been reports that funds from tax havens like Mauritius and the Cayman Islands have been pumped into the league by various franchisees in violation of FEMA provisions.
Known earlier as Sony Entertainment Television, MSM bought the telecast rights for the T20 tournament for 10 years from 2008 from WSG, which had acquired them through tender.
The IPL tax probe started with the Kochi franchise on April 14, amid allegations that the former Union Minister of State, Shashi Tharoor, had a proxy stake in the team. I-T officials visited the IPL offices in Mumbai and questioned Mr. Modi. When none of the documents pertaining to the recent bids were available at the IPL or BCCI offices, the I-T department obtained a search warrant and broadened the probe to cover all teams.

Bordeaux must fight anti-alcohol lobby
anti-alcohol lobby, Allan Sichel, BIVB, Evin News Wine News http://www.decanter.com/news/wine-news/485847/bordeaux-must-fight-anti-alcohol-lobby- 2008-04-28T17:54:00+01:00 Monday 28 April 2008
'This directly concerns all of us,' said Marie-Christine Tarby, president of alcohol lobby group Vin & Société, reiterating her group's cause at the Bordeaux Wine Bureau's annual general meeting last week. 'We are in an absurd situation where we have to defend the place of wine in French society.' Lambasting the recent threats to the industry from anti-alcohol groups, Tarby noted in particular the rulings against newspaper editorials and websites - such as Heineken - that mention alcohol. Tarby called for an update of the 1991 Evin Law which governs alcohol advertising. She currently is visiting wine bodies around France to inform them of the gravity of the current situation. An open letter to President Sarkozy will demand that he support the inclusion of websites in the allowed list of alcohol publicity outlets, and that he do more to protect one of France's oldest and most important industries. She added that it is essential also to keep the current legal drink/drive limit of 0.5g per litre. 'If this goes to zero,' she said, 'wine service in restaurants will be in grave danger.' Allan Sichel, president of the Bordeaux négociant's union, cautioned that it was important to work together. 'We must not each present individual arguments to the government, but get behind Vin & Société to argue with one voice.' Reflecting the growing national obsession with this topic, the Ecole Superieur de Commerce Dijon-Bourgogne - a Burgundy business school - has created a new academic post to teach students about the medical implications of marketing of food and beverages, including alcohol.

Last month, we explored two traditional Guatemalan dishes that opened our eyes to the flavors of a country we have never been to, but feel slightly more connected to now that we've eaten something so simply delicious. Every month, our challenge is to find yet another cuisine that confounds us and make it less intimidating–not only for ourselves, but for others. We've bounced around to different continents, and this time we're returning to a place we've been. Unlike the first time, we're exploring the southern portion as opposed to the western coast. Back in March, we slurped down a Ghanian stew with fufu and snacked on sweet pan-fried plantains. This time, we took a culinary food trip to Zimbabwe, which of course has its own signature dishes, ingredients and preparations. As many of us know, one of the best ways to begin to get to know any new culture is through its food. That's exactly where we'll start. This time, we're sharing the adventure with loyal readers and a few new friends. Venture over to the Hills of Africa's travel blog, Live the Magic of Africa, to read the rest of this post.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.

Ayurveda Fenugreek Spice Is Scientifically Proven To Lower The Bad (LDL) And Increase The (HDL) Good Cholesterol
Fenugreek is the common name for the latin botanical name. Trigonella foenum-graecum. Plasma Insulin levels are found to increase when given fenugreek in vivo. This results in Increased conversion of hepatic cholesterol to bile salts. Which facilitates reducing the LDL and increasing the HDL. Research in Indian Medicine Annals are rich in research on fenugreek. Fenugreek along with other household spices is one of the main ingredients for urinary,kidney tract, pancreas repairing,cleansing and nourishing.
The Ayurveda High Cholesterol Herbal Recommendations
One Cup Fenugreek Tea per day.
Haritaki Powder 1/2 tsp with one teaspoon of honey.
Kutaja Powder,Onion Powder, Garlic Powder i/2 teaspoon of each in a copper cup, room temperature. If you do not have the copper cup it will still work wonders.
Half teaspoon of Triphala before going to bed mixed with warm water strained and taken If it too sour for you put sweetener to taste in it.
I have heard more than one Ayurvedic physician say s/he or he took triphala routinely for long periods of time.
Tri Phala simply is three fruits that cleanse different tissue in all three sections of the body.
These are all very common easy to obtains herbs and spices.
We must take our understanding of cholesterol back into our own hearts and mind.
When we do that we will have the fortitude to make these teas and take them daily if you have a cholesterol problem or even if you don't. So you don't get one.
There are no studies done to date with any of the modern pharmaceutical used for cholesterol and ayurvedic herbs. the ayurvedic herbs are working in gross levels compared to the pharmaceuticals because the ayurveda herbs have to be digested like food. In many cases that is exactly what they are food called herbs.
Back to the earth with plant medicine that is not processed beyond simple ancient techniques that have been done for millenium is where ayurvedic herbs take us.
Meda is sanskrit for fat. there are several types of fat. Lipid, cholesterol. adipose tissue, white fat and brown fat.
All these tissues play a role in your cholesterol health.
You must be educated to understand from an ayurvedic point of view to choose herbs and practices that specifically like a bullseye accuracy give you the desire results you are wanting within a very short period of time between 7 days ,maybe 21 days, or 45 days and beyond depending how severe the problem is.
Or how long you let it go before tending to it properly.
Finding and consulting an Ayurvedic Practiconer is possible worldwide.
Exercise, Exercise, Exercise cannot be over emphasized. Mild.moderate or sports players level whichever you find yourself you must exercise at your level of comfort seven days a week. Ayurveda prescribes specific types of exercise based on your body type.
If you chant the word Meda because it is a sanskrit mantra it will vibrate the specifics biochemical frequency and amplitude and strengthen that tissue. Chanting has been a science studied and perfected in the advanced siddha traditions. Now ther is irrefutable evidence to the health benefits of chanting the sanskrit mantras.

Waiting for Guffman is a comedy in the documentary style starring, co-written and directed by Christopher Guest that was released in 1997. Its cast included Catherine O'Hara, Eugene Levy, Fred Willard, and Parker Posey.
The title of the film is a reference to the Samuel Beckett play, Waiting for Godot. As in the other mockumentaries created by Guest, the majority of the dialogue is improvised. Because the film is about the production of a stage musical, it contains several original musical numbers.
In the fictional small town of Blaine, Missouri, a handful of utterly delusional residents prepare to put on a community theater production led by eccentric director Corky St. Clair (Christopher Guest). The show, a musical chronicling the town's history titled Red, White and Blaine, is to be performed as part of the town's 150th anniversary celebration.
Cast in the leads are Ron and Sheila Albertson (Catherine O'Hara and Fred Willard), a pair of married travel agents who are also regular amateur performers; Libby Mae Brown (Parker Posey), a perky Dairy Queen employee; Clifford Wooley (Lewis Arquette), a "long time Blaineian" and retired taxidermist who is Red, White and Blaine's narrator; Johnny Savage (Matt Keeslar), a handsome and oblivious mechanic, who Corky goes out of his way to get into the play; and Dr. Allan Pearl (Eugene Levy), a tragically square dentist determined to discover his inner entertainer. High school teacher Lloyd Miller (Bob Balaban) is the show's increasingly frustrated musical director.
Corky has used connections from his "off-off-off-off" Broadway past to invite Mort Guffman, a Broadway producer, to critique Red, White and Blaine. Corky leads the cast to believe that a positive review from Guffman could mean their show might go all the way to Broadway.
The program itself is designed to musically retell the history of Blaine, whose founding father was a buffoon incapable of distinguishing the geography of middle Missouri from the Pacific coastline. We also learn why the town obtusely refers to itself as "the stool capital of the United States." The music is a series of poorly performed songs such as "Nothing Ever Happens on Mars" a reference to the town's supposed visit by a UFO, and "Stool Boom". (The DVD contains "This Bulging River" and "Nothing Ever Happens in Blaine", which were edited from the cinema release.)
Central to the film are Corky's stereotypically gay mannerisms. He supposedly has a wife called Bonnie, whom no one in Blaine has ever met or seen. He uses her to explain his habit of shopping for women's clothing and shoes.
When Johnny is forced by his suspicious father (Brian Doyle Murray) to quit the show, Corky takes over his roles, which were clearly intended for a young, masculine actor, playing a lusty young frontiersman, a heartbroken soldier, and a little boy wearing a beanie and shorts. Corky never sheds his dainty demeanor, bowl haircut, lisp, or earring in spite of his historical roles, and his face is pasted with an overkill of stage rouge and eyeliner.
Corky is also faced with creating his magic on a shoestring budget, at one point quitting the show after storming out of a meeting with the City Council, which turns down his request for $100,000 to finance the production. But the distraught cast and persuasive city fathers convince Corky to return. At the show's performance, Guffman's seat is seen to be empty, much to the dismay of the cast. Corky reassures them that Broadway producers always arrive a bit late for the show, and sure enough a man (Paul Benedict) soon takes Guffman's reserved seat. The show is well received by the audience, whereupon Corky invites the assumed Guffman backstage to talk to the actors.
The man is actually Roy Loomis, who came to Blaine to witness the birth of his niece's baby, but he did enjoy the show. Corky then reads a telegram stating that Guffman's plane was grounded by snowstorms in New York City, meaning that, like the "Godot" being spoofed, the real Guffman himself is destined never to arrive.
An epilogue shows the fates of the cast: Libby Mae has returned to Dairy Queen. Alan and the Albertsons have pursued their dreams of being entertainers, Ron and Sheila traveling to Los Angeles, California to work as extras, Alan now performing for elderly Jews in Miami, Florida retirement communities. Corky has returned to New York City, where he has opened a Hollywood-themed novelty shop, which includes such items as Brat Pack bobblehead dolls, My Dinner with Andre action figures, and The Remains of the Day lunch boxes.

Are You Kidding?
"Mocad, as everyone calls it, opened just over a year ago in a one-story former car dealership. Its current show, "Words Fail Me," organized by the New York artist and curator Matthew Higgs, explores language as a visual-art medium that is also directly linked to poetry. Most of the 16 artists included are familiar names in New York. I wondered if they would look out of place in Detroit, but they don't."
I can't even to begin to critique the last sentence of that statement. Stick to the review of the DIA, avoid the condescending, ignorant bull.

MOCAD is not working. Sorry.
firstname.lastname@example.com - 28 nëntor 2007 në 23:14
I'm going to have to disagree with you on that one "Billy Lantern". What's your story anyways, where do you live and what do you do that informs you to the point of poor judgement?
- 7 dhjetor 2007 në 10:40
How is that condescending. I just saw a photograph taken by a west coast artist, obviously of L.A. or some similar area, in a show in Chicago in the middle of fuck cold winter and it seemed out of place. It didn't make sense displayed in this world at this time.
Whether NY based text artists would jive in Detroit (where one never sees text based art) is a legitimate question.
Does text art work in it's airy philosophical form within the context of a visceral poverty stricken city?
Once again, it's a good question. - 9 dhjetor 2007 në 21:04
Curtis I definitely see your point. Certain styles of work can certainly look out of place at certain locations. However, as a journalist from New York, working for the times and writing an article about the DIA, I'm upset with the way he chose to bring in a little jab elsewhere- at the MOCAD. Its the way in which he stated it- about "New York" work looking out of place, like thats the only city producing relevant work, and surely it would not fit in a culture-voided city like Detroit. Had he said something about a certain style, about a certain movement, I probably wouldn't have picked up on it. I personally felt that it was his chance of looking down on the city while reviewing the re-open, from hi-atop his "New York is Art" throne....
Again, its all opinion I suppose. - 10 dhjetor 2007 në 06:12

A GaMnAs nanoelectromechanical resonator is used to obtain the first measurement of magnetostriction in a dilute magnetic semiconductor. Resonance frequency shifts induced by field-dependent magnetoelastic stress are used to simultaneously map the magnetostriction and magnetic anisotropy constants over a wide range of temperatures. Owing to the central role of carriers in controlling ferromagnetic interactions in this material, the results appear to provide insight into a unique form of magnetoelastic behavior mediated by holes.

What do you think of the
Bogs Classic High Handles Boot - Women's
? Share a...
I have a very wide calf - 16". Would these stretch enough?
Monique Seitz
See Ya Later Cold Toes!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
When I was 18 my mother introduced me to Bogs. I initially bought them as a muck boot for cold mornings in the horse barn. They proved themselves well there! Super easy to clean, pull on and the best part is that they didn't stink like horse manure after you hosed them down. So when I went to college in Vermont, so did my Bogs! Over the years I had purchased a handful of different "snow" boots: Sorels, Columbia, etc. Sorels' sole froze in the cold temperatures, Columbia's were clunky and everything else just wouldn't cut it. Nothing stood up to the salt, giant deep puddles, or the freezing cold temperatures like my Bogs did. Hands down these are the best winter boot - I even prefer them to my LL.Bean boots! I'm pretty sure these boots are in their last season since the sole is worn through on the heel and they finally (FINALLY) stink like old socks. (This stinking process finally occurred after 5 years of wearing them). They keep me super dry, super warm and very comfortable. The height is perfect - they fit under jeans well and even look cute pulled up over skinny jeans. Also, on the taller version you can roll them down into the "short" version without it looking super weird / if you want to regulate your body temperature a little bit. Hands down, best boot. I don't slip, I'm warm and they're the lightest winter boot out there! (my favorite part is that they keep you warm up to -32 degrees!). I wouldn't go with any other boot! Oh and they also have a dang good warranty policy!!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
Love these boots---has everything you need in a totally waterproof boot and MORE. The fit cups your foot and heel more than your average rubber boot of this type but still a comfortable feel and easy on and off. No worries about weather, water, mud, slush, snow, these boots can handle anything. I found the size to be true. I'm generally in between sizes so I opted to go up a half size and they have a little room to spare.

Bogs Classic High Handles Boot - Women's
BOGS are the BEST!
My first Bog purchase and I'm in LOVE! Super comfy and warm. I was nervous about what size to purchase. I read a lot reviews and was even more confused. So hopefully this will help the next shopper. I normally wear a size 8 and have a wide foot. I bought a size 9 and they are perfect. There is a little bit of wiggle room so I can wear thicker socks on those colder days. Hopefully this helps :)
Aline Andersen
Could I use these for snowshoeing?
Could I use these for snowshoeing?
Mark Parrett
Aline - you CAN use almost any shoe for snowshoeing but this boot isn't going to have much support around your foot so I think it will be pretty uncomfortable for that purpose. I'd look at something more hiking-oriented so that when you secure a snowshoe to your boot it doesn't compress the boot so much. Something like the Salomon snowtrip would be ideal:
Great Boots
I bought these boots based on the reviews here. I was tired of freezing my feet while I was out shovelling snow. Not sure why but nothing I did was keeping my feet warm and that includes using those little heat inserts. I got these boots and used them during the next storm and I had warm feet!!!! Warm but not sweating feet.
They fit well, and are easy to get on and off. And, I have pretty well developed calves, so not all boots work with me.
And the blue color rocks.
Bought These For my Mom, She loves 'em
It was My Moms Birthday, I have the Hawthorne's for men and Have bought my Nephews the classic high handles For Boys. Her Birthday is in February, She Lives in Maine. February in Maine can be the definition of "Mixed Precipitation". She loves them, They keep her dry and warm, whether its a walk through the parking lot in post blizzard slush or turning soil in the garden. Although geared for Cold weather, they breathe very well so they are useful pretty much year round.
