An Extraordinary On-Line Training Opportunity.
The link brings Apogee's award-winning, "Deregulation Game," training experience on-line for the first time. Now the open-market simulation that has been enjoyed by thousands of energy services professionals in workshops around the country comes to the Internet and is available to everyone at no charge. The first formal competition begins April 1, 1999. There will be three rounds of competition lasting one month each. At the conclusion of each round, winners will be announced and, after all three rounds have been completed, a "grand champion" will be named and prizes awarded.
According to Apogee President Susan Gilbert, "Playing the Deregulation Game on-line brings to anyone training about how the deregulated utility market works. It's incredibly convenient," Gilbert said. "Teams of any size can log on through the AESP Web site (http://www.aesp.org) and spend about 15 minutes getting familiar with the game. Then, each 'round' in the game simulates implementation of a new strategic marketing plan by the player's utility. And it only takes a few minutes each week to play. Decisions include target marketing, pricing, levels of program investments, and levels of investment in market research. Each team gets the same amount of money to spend and has the same supply capacity to begin with."
According to Gilbert, some utility teams are likely to go bankrupt and others will prosper, depending on their strategic decisions. Teams can spend as much time as they choose reviewing and analyzing their results. "This time and effort pays off," said Gilbert, "as it leaves players with an eye-opening understanding of how utility competition works."
With help from AESP's Communications Committee, progress round-by-round will be documented and winners announced. AESP decided to place the game on its public access Web site for two reasons:
-- To introduce the value of AESP to colleagues and friends; -- To help train energy services professionals in the skills
necessary to deal with the challenges of deregulation.
The Association of Energy Services Professionals, International (AESP) is a not-for-profit individual membership organization with nearly 2,000 members. It is based in Boca Raton, Fla.

Counsel will review reasons for city audit delay
Aguirre suggests misallocation may not just be a computer glitch
He said some employee time was mistakenly charged to the wrong accounts because the wrong codes were used.
For example, he said, an engineer working in capital projects might work on seven projects in two weeks. Hours may be funded from different sources – including water and wastewater funds, Goldstone said.
"The kink is to ensure when people have filled out time cards they are properly distributed to various accounts and funds where individual employees worked," Goldstone said. "The distribution of those costs in the general ledger weren't accurate. Until we're comfortable all the labor has been distributed to the right accounts we're not able to close the books."
City officials have yet to determine how widespread the problem is, and how much money is involved, but Goldstone insisted it's not about deliberately diverting enterprise funds. In fact, he said, the general fund has probably been overcharged.
The potential use of enterprise funds to pay daily operating costs or payroll strikes a nerve because of the city's history of improperly diverting those funds. City managers in the past balanced departmental budgets with enterprise funds. The practice was exposed by a whistle-blower in 2007.
Under pressure from then-City Attorney Aguirre, Mayor Jerry Sanders said he would put a stop to what he called "raids on enterprise funds throughout the city."
After the problem was brought to light, the San Diego County Grand Jury assailed the practice as "hidden taxes."
Aguirre said the city may be reverting to old behaviors in desperate financial times.
"The purpose of enterprise funds is to maintain the water department and wastewater departments," Aguirre said. "You can't shift general work done in the city to enterprise funds. That would be a problem with our bondholders, a problem with our financial statements and that would be a problem with our audits.
The city's Disclosure Practices Working Group, a charter-mandated panel, decided to disclose the audit delay to investors late Tuesday as a prudent response to anticipated articles in the press, said McNally, who is also president of the National Association of Bond Lawyers.
The group includes the city's chief operating officer, chief financial officer, outside general disclosure counsel, and deputy city attorneys. Its mission is to protect the city by reviewing any disclosures that would potentially subject the city to liability under federal securities laws.
The Watchdog Institute is an independent investigative reporting center based at San Diego State University.

fix it, home repair, repair, service providers, Success, tips
Life is busy and everything keeps moving faster. We need shortcuts to help us decide many things. There just isn't enough time to spend on important decisions as we would like. One of those areas is finding great service people.
We have all had bad experiences with repair folks. The latest criminals in this field are the people who tell you they will be at your house between the hours of 3 a.m. and the apocalypse! Who has time to wait for a smelly plumber that shows up at the very end of the time slot, usually a four-hour window, and then even more time is needed to actually do the work. And then usually they have to order a part and then come back next week. Ohhhhh….don't get me started.
So how do we find the gems? Well, in the words of Marvin Gaye, you've got to hear it through the grapevine. Getting information and recommendations from people we know is invaluable!
Even better than Angie's list, Yelp and other online sites, the recommendation of someone you trust is the best. And here is a fairly safe rule of thumb: find out who your affluent friends use, and if you can afford them, you will usually be very satisfied.
Here is a list of the eight 'must have' professionals that make our lives run smooth!
Car repair guy. #1 advice: stay away from dealer repair shops unless it is a warranty fix. They are always higher when you compare pricing. For years we got our cars fixed at a place called Irvine Auto Care*. They did a marvelous job of building goodwill by fixing little things for free. They also developed trust by sometimes advising us to fix something or recommended places to take our car that specialized in a certain type of repair.
Interesting side note: The store was named "Irvine" Auto Care even though it was located just across the border in the neighboring city of Tustin. Gary, the owner, said he got the idea after reading the book "Gorilla Marketing." Irvine is a considerably larger market than Tustin. Gary rightly reasoned that people from Irvine would hesitate to drive to Tustin, which sounded much further away. He built a very successful business before selling.
If you really like a mechanic, get his personal cell number and email address. If the mechanic ever decides to go out on his own, believe me his old boss will not tell you where he went!
House cleaner. The number one rule for hiring a house cleaner is trust! These folks are in your house, for goodness sakes. The number two thing to look for is how well they clean. How much you pay will be subject to the size of your home and how much you want them to do. It is recommended that you pay them a flat fee vs. paying hourly. And spot check occasionally but discreetly to make sure the work is being done correctly.
Hair stylist. women tend to not to go to their hair stylist as often as most guys do. I am a once a month guy. Obviously, when you find someone you like, stick with them. But the next most important hurdle when dealing with a hair cut is the scheduling challenge. Unless your person will allow you to schedule a specific time, convince your "barber" that they should text or email you once a month and ask you if you prefer morning or afternoon times that you would be available. This will save you from waiting in line or having to constantly figure out what days of the week your person is working.
Gardener. I believe the vast majority of landscape folks could be called "whackers" instead of gardeners. Gardening connotes growing and cultivating flowers, shrubs and grass. Over the years, the gardener's I have hired main job, as far as I can tell, is to get a weed whacker and machine gun everything, then follow up with a leaf blower and get rid of the evidence.
As a long time urban dweller, I have a very small amount of grass at my home. Literally it is a patch in front of my house that is 5′ x 9′, smaller than most family's room rugs. Yet for the last 5 years, there has been more dirt showing than grass. Finally, my wife, no stranger to plain talk, said to our man, "Aren't we paying you to make sure there is grass here?" We now have a lovely green mini-lawn!
My point, besides unloading my long time frustration on you, is you need to clearly communicate expectations and then follow up. And don't be afraid to negotiate price. If your gardener isn't "cutting it" don't be afraid to shuffle the deck and find someone else.
Dentist. One of my "thriftier" friends always went to a fairly expensive dentist. He would visit three stores to get the best price on Chef Boyardee. So when he said that you should never scrimp on dental care, he got my attention. I couldn't agree more. Look for quality individual practitioners rather than the big corporate dental factories. You will have a much better outcome.
I am appalled at the high number of bargain basement dentistry offices that exist today. Many lure you in with offers of free or very inexpensive check ups and initial teeth cleaning. Then they prescribe expensive and often unnecessary procedures. This really upsets me. These are trusted advisors and professionals. So buyer beware!
Fix it man. To find someone to hang a mirror, repair the screen door or re-hang a door and other minor repair tasks around your house, ask a residential real estate agent. Many times, in order to close a sale, something needs to get fixed: removing a doggy door, fixing a hole in the wall, etc. Real estate people are great referral sources! And since there are 3 real estate agents on every block, your resources should be plentiful!
Computer expert. Unless you are a savant, you will need the services of a computer expert. We seem to regularly have issues with our wireless capabilities, speed, printing issues, upgrades, etc. One of my best friends owns a computer store and he has saved my bacon more times than I can count (Thank you Coastline Micro!).
My single best computer tip: before you call for repair, completely shut down everything: computer, printer, router, modem, etc. Hitting the reset button solves a high degree of problems! Second best tip: don't scrimp with hardware! Get equipment that is fast. Remember, it is a new world. You don't want to be driving a Model T on the interstate!
Web guru. This is different than a computer expert. The Internet is still relatively young and we are learning more every day. Getting someone to help you navigate and use it properly is time and money well spent.

LOS ANGELES – The original idea was to put Dustin Brown in the same hotel room with Drew Doughty for mentoring purposes, to implant a little professionalism into the Kings' Next One.
Now, near the end of February, the captain found himself confiding in the kid.
The Kings were shooting at nets encased by iron bars. The NHL trade deadline was hanging like a sword from General Manager Dean Lombardi's ceiling.
The club had won just three games in February and were shut out, back-to-back, by Phoenix and Calgary at Staples Center.
Columbus was holding a yard sale, featuring Rick Nash and/or Jeff Carter, either of whom could feed the starving Kings. Brown had just 15 goals at the time. His name started bouncing around the internet like a Kardashian.
"Obviously he's been here so long, he's comfortable here, he loves all the boys on the team," Doughty said. "We didn't want him to leave either. I remember, when that was circulating, we'd talk a little bit about it."
As we all know, the Kings traded Jack Johnson for Jeff Carter. Brown stayed put.
The next day he scored three goals against Chicago. He had four more down the stretch, as he was comfortably reunited with Anze Kopitar and Justin Williams.
Then the playoff curtain lifted, and on Sunday, Brown reconfirmed the value of a mistake not made.
He fired a go-ahead laser into the top left corner past Brian Elliott for a 2-1 lead. He got the empty-netter at the end of this 3-1 victory.
It finished the Kings' first 4-0 sweep. It gives them the Western Conference finals for the second time ever and the first time since 1993, when Wayne Gretzky walked the earth and Doughty, the kid who had the Kings logo on his phone back in London, Ontario, was 3.
It is the first time a No. 8 seed has beaten the first and second-seeded team in succession (Vancouver, St. Louis). The Kings were 17 for 17 in penalty kills and Jonathan Quick's postseason save percentage is .949.
At 8-1, they are playing far better than anyone else in the playoffs. It guarantees nothing, but something must change radically for the Kings to fall short of the Cup Finals, no matter if they play Phoenix or Nashville.
"The physicality and the pounding, I think it's tough when the other team realizes it's going to keep coming," Brown said.
Yet, Brown has not really stopped to watch. Against Vancouver he leveled Henrik Sedin in Game 1. Teammate Dwight King did the same to Blues defenseman and drink-stirrer Alex Pietrangelo in this Game 1, and after Game 4, St. Louis coach Ken Hitchcock acknowledged that Pietrangelo's physical condition "isn't great."

PETERSON: That's the whole point of the idea of reconciliation. From every movie to every comic book, there have been different Earths and there were many crises. It's hard to pinpoint exactly one thing that you're supposed to line up to, so we're just one more of those different variations, but we, along with a lot of the movies, have been very reverent to the source material. Even though we've taken slight liberties, we haven't gone way off the path.
Really? The whole Henry James Olson nonsense, Lex losing his memories, and Lois and Clark inexplicably not getting married after seven years wreaks of pissing on your story in order to line-up with the Superman mythos.

Apple's 'new wave' anti-malware patent takes a leaf out of Qubes' book
A new patent awarded to Cupertino could signal that native resource and memory isolation may be a future Apple security mechanism.
A new patent awarded to Cupertino could signal that native resource and memory isolation may be a future Apple security mechanism.
Thousands of tenants of two London housing associations had their data exposed after a contractor left an unencrypted memory stick in a London pub.Banking details of 800 Lewisham Homes tenants were on the unencrypted USB drive, which contained personal information of 20,000 tenants of the housing association in total, data protection authority the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) said on Thursday.
In a stinging ruling, Judge Birss of a London patent court has rejected attempts by the plaintiffs in a file-sharing case to have the case dropped, while criticising key technical arguments against the defendants
Apple has filed lawsuit against Nokia in the UK for alleged patent infringement, this time focusing on a patent related to scrolling, according to online reports.The iPhone maker filed the suit in the High Court in London on Tuesday alleging that one of the patents — that covers the way scrolling works in touchscreen handsets — in a lawsuit brought by Nokia against Apple in Germany is invalid, according a report by Bloomberg.
Microsoft has applied for a patent for an "automated, static safety verifier" that will help verify the type- and memory-safety of an operating system. And why should anyone care? There are some connections to other Microsoft projects (and potentially, products) worth considering.
When one of our devices crashes or shuts down because of memory issues, one of the last words we would ever use to describe the circumstances is "graceful."Yes, but graceful is indeed part of the title of a just-published BlackBerry Patent application entitled Detection Of Out-Of-Memory and Graceful Shutdown.
Company files patent infringement lawsuit and asks trade commission to halt shipment of rival's flash memory into the United States.
According to London-based research firm Informa Media, consumers worldwide will buy 10.8 million next-generation players in 2004, from cheaper flash-memory units to players equipped with hard drives and massive memory, bringing the total installed base to 21.
A group of standard-setting bodies has weighed in on the patent-infringement case filed by memory designer Rambus against German memory maker Infineon. The major standard-setting bodies are parties to a friend-of-the-court brief filed in the U.
Storage Computer said Wednesday that the United Kingdom High Court in London ruled that two of the company's European patents were invalid in the United Kingdom and that Hitachi Data Systems had not infringed on the patents. Storage Computer, which provides data storage delivery systems, said it will review the court decision to determine whether there is a basis to appeal the patent action litigation against Hitachi, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hitachi Ltd.
DDR-II memory, which looks likely to take pole position as the high speed memory standard in another year or two, got its first outing in London this week
The FTC says Rambus worked with other companies in the industry to adopt a memory-chip standard while secretly applying for patent rights for itself.
Via Technologies responded this week to Intel's launch of cheaper chipsets with its own low-end solution, the P4X266E, which supports the latest Pentium 4 chips with faster bus speeds. The P4X266E comes with a 533MHz system bus as well as integrated USB 2.0, a high-speed connection for printers and other devices. While Via's Pentium III and earlier Celeron chipsets have been popular with PC makers, the company is currently engaged in a worldwide legal battle with Intel over Pentium 4 products, which has dampened some of the enthusiasm for the company's latest offerings. Intel alleges that Via does not have a license to make Pentium 4-compatible products. Via disputes this but has offered to indemnify PC makers and others who adopt Via's chips. Under patent law, Intel can file claims against companies that incorporate Via's chipsets. ZDNet U.K.'s Matthew Broersma reported from London. To read the full story, visit ZDNet U.K.
LONDON--A U.S. judge last week dismissed most of Rambus' patent claims against Korea's Hynix Semiconductor, one of the biggest memory manufacturers.
The schedule for Micron Technology's high-stakes fraud and patent-infringement lawsuit against memory designer Rambus has been reset so the court can digest findings in a similar case involving chipmaker Infineon. A U.
Chip designer Rambus stands to lose its grip on the PC memory industry as German chipmaker Infineon pursues a countersuit that could have far-reaching implications. A federal judge in Virginia on Friday dismissed the three remaining charges in Rambus' patent infringement suit against Infineon.
A federal judge in Virginia on Friday threw out the three remaining patent infringement claims brought by memory chip designer Rambus against European chipmaker Infineon.

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) July 31, 2014
The Secret Society of Happy People will be celebrating the 15th Happiness Happens Month with a 31 Day Challenge.
The idea of the challenge is to help people develop a happiness habit. We're starting the challenge on August 1 by toasting in the month with pink lemonade (or other beverage that makes you happy). Other activities include singing out loud, skipping and stargazing.
"There's so much emphasis on science and happiness that we often forget sometimes happiness simply happens when we aren't even trying to find it. It's just there and we often take it for granted," says Pamela Gail Johnson, Founder of the Secret Society of Happy People.
The Society provides lots of celebration options at the Society website (http://sohp.com) including:
"One of the goals for Happiness Happens Month is to increase our happy conversations. This naturally happens if we notice our happiness when it happens. If we start developing a happiness habit in August it helps us notice happiness the rest of the year. Our busy and stressful lives make it easy to forget all of the things that are right and make us happy," says Johnson. "Like all good habits we have to make efforts to recognize happiness so we can value it."
August was originally declared Happiness Happens Month in 2000 and is an annual tradition for the Secret Society of Happy People. August 8th will be the 16th Happiness Happens Day.
To sign up for the Happiness Happens Month activities, go to http://sohp.com/society-celebrations/happiness-happens-month/. Another option for people to share a token of happiness with family and friends is to share "happicons" via email, Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and Pinterest. The 31 "happicons" can be shared via http://sohp.com/what-is-happiness/happicons/.
About The Secret Society of Happy People:
Pamela Gail Johnson founded the Secret Society of Happy People in 1998 to encourage the expression of happiness and discourage parade-raining. The Society has thousands of members from more than 34 countries. Ms. Johnson is a public speaker for organizations and companies around the country who want to promote happiness among their members or employees. The Secret Society of Happy People offers free membership to anyone interested in learning how to improve their happiness quotient. The free membership includes a downloadable Happiness Word Poster, a monthly Happiness Happens newsletter and an optional Daily Happiness Inspiration email. The society also offers videos, books and daily inspirations to promote happiness.

I have contacted the dpthemes-support via their support form here on Themeforest as I'm having trouble with the Glide theme – it has errors within the theme that could not be fixed by a web designer.
I initially got an answer from them asking for logins to our websites' Wordpress, which we provided for both – and have not heard back from them since!
Also, I have followed up both via email and their support form on Themeforest, but no answer! It's been over a week now since we supplied the logins so I am hoping to get some kind of help via this forum now.
It seems very dubious to me that they are not responding anymore.
We really need help with those websites ASAP!
First of all what are the problems you are facing?
Second: change your password immediatly if you haven't done so already. Nobody should ask for your login details.

I think that's something that would be a lot of fun, and add something more to the PvE side of the game. It would also encourage more offensive builds, not just the farming invinci-monk all over.
Now, this could be done in various ways.
1. There is a town/outpost somewhere with one or more explorable areas around it, just like any other town. But when you enter an area, a timer starts ticking, a 60 minute one for example. (If there are more than one town/area like this, the timers could vary in lenght) So you can only spend a finite amount of time in this area. Then you just run around as usual, and do quests that you get from NPC:s either in the town or stationated out in the timer'ed area. Once the timer hits zero, you and your party are teleported back to the town, regardless if you've completed any quests or not.
2. You get the quests from NPC:s stationated in explorable areas. Once you've finished talking to the NPC and have gotten the quest, the timer starts. The problem is see with this way though is that when you get a quest from an NPC only you get it, not your entire party. Therefore, if done this way, the entire party would need to get the quest in their log if one member gets it, so that the timer would be the same for the whole party.
Personally, I like the first way better. It adds the challenge of completing multiple quests during the time limit, and overall I think this way would be the most convenient and fun. So what do you think, would time limits be a good thing to add to some future explorable areas?

it was good until they put their watermark... uninstalled
Poor app
Google Play
It was full of ads and kept crashing. Utterly useless
I had to factory reset my new phone. All of the apps I purchased before the reset works perfectly except for this one. I LOVE the blur affect and it took a lot of installing and uninstalling and restarting my phone to get it to work again. But it works OK now so yay:)
Ads suck. Forces you to post with annoying logo in corner now. Not recommended.
How about you put the watermark too on those pictures above. Fake advertising

"Unsightly commercial enterprises," prolonged drought, and unsustainable levels of recreational boating have taken a toll on the aesthetic appeal and ecological health of the second largest man-made reservoir in the United States.
Here is a representative sampling of additional anonymous comments from the panelists. They are not necessarily the views of the National Geographic Society:
"Could be threatened by the proliferation of recreational boating. Its dry ecology is very fragile. Water diversion and unsightly commercial enterprises are the largest threats."
"After years of drought, human impacts are apparent. Pollution and debris once covered by the reservoir are now exposed well above the shoreline."
"Declines in water levels are slowly making this lake in the desert look uglier and uglier."
"The lake has its own culture in the types of visitors it attracts, a large part of which is the party hearty crowd that values puttering around in their boats while intoxicated by their favorite sudsy beverage."

Alien: Isolation gets an official release date
Posted on March 31, 2014 AT 02:57am
Alien: Isolation will launch for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PC on October 7, developer Creative Assembly has announced.
The announcement was mad over the weekend during the Alien Isolation panel at EGX Rezzed 2014. "We couldn't be happier to finally announce a date for Alien: Isolation," Creative Assembly's Alistair Hope said.
"The reaction we have seen so far has been simply incredible, from the screams and shrieks to the cold sweats and racing hearts. It's the Alien game that we've always wanted to play and we can't wait to let everyone get their hands on it this fall."
Isolation is a sci-fi horror title starring Ellen Ripley's daughter, Amanda. While onboard the remote station Sevastopol she encounters a lone xenomorph, and the fight for survival begins. According to the developer, players will mainly be facing off against ordinary soldiers in combat, with the lone alien acting as the monster in the shadows.

LOS ALAMITOS, Calif., July 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Traditional medicine attempts to treat menopausal symptoms with drugs or hormones. However, they don't handle underlying causes. As a result, menopausal women may have to suffer.
There is another alternative. Through Holistic Health Solutions, a woman may significantly decrease her menopausal symptoms using a variety of all-natural treatments.
"The goal of holistic healing is to remove or reduce all of the causes of a health problem instead of just masking the symptom. Furthermore, I teach my patients to do many of the therapies at home to maintain their results," explains Dr. Stewart Edrich, DC.
As for menopause, Edrich begins by addressing the functioning of a woman's liver and adrenals. The liver must be "de-toxified" and the adrenals must be strong. These organs are key to hormonal balance.
"Giving a women more hormones is not always the right place to start." Edrich explains, "The trick lies in the efficiency of the other organs. If you make too much cortisol "The belly fat hormone" your body will "steal" the sex hormones to make more cortisol, and if the liver is too toxic it won't be able to re-cycle used estrogen which throws off the hormonal balance."
Edrich believes, "First use holistic processes that focus on diet and lifestyle, use natural methods based on Applied Kinesiology and 3000 years of Chinese medicine to determine function; such as location and types of symptoms, condition of the tongue hair and fingernails. If the problem is not resolving then saliva, blood, stool or urine tests may give additional data."
For treatment first he uses diet, exercise and lifestyle, then uses herbs and supplements along with postural balancing and acupressure.
Even though detoxification and tonification seem simple, most people will not be able to do it on their own without professional guidance and coaching.
During the course of Edrich's holistic practice (s

Brilliant B-Movie Monster Mash-Up For Those Who Can Get Past The Obvious Blemishes
Aug 21, 2014
posted in
Movie Hype
Of all the various sub-genres within the pantheon of horror films, my personal favorite has been and will probably always be the classic monster movie. This isn't to say that I'm only a fan of old monster movies; rather, I'm talking about a film's narrative structure. In a classic monster movie, the monster is never really at fault for his or her creation; it ends up being generally spawned by any number of the forces of evil working in concert with one another or (even worse) the flawed action of the perpetually flawed human race brings it about. Even when its killing, you as a viewer kinda/sorta feel sorry for it: it didn't ask to be born, it didn't ask to have such hunger, and it certainly never asked to suffer whatever cruel fate it will before the credits roll.
(NOTE: The following review will contain minor spoilers necessary solely for the discussion of plot and/or characters. If you're the type of reader who prefers a review entirely spoiler-free, then I'd encourage you to skip down to the last three paragraphs for my final assessment. If, however, you're accepting of a few modest hints at 'things to come,' then read on …)
From the product packaging: "At a climate observation station high in the German Alps, a group of technicians preparing for a visit from the Environment Minister discover a mysterious red liquid pouring from a nearby glacier. A result of the ice's melting due to climate change, the now-spreading 'glacier blood' soon comes into contact with local wildlife, causing changes in the fauna that are at first curious but soon become horrifying."
Now, yes, this is exactly what Al Gore probably dreams will happen in his heart of hearts, but let's just dismiss the obvious politics of the piece because they're honestly entirely inconsequential. While BLOOD GLACIER only flirts with indicting mankind for creating the conditions which just might spell a doom of Biblical proportions, writer Benjamin Hessler's script sticks to that old-school monster formula I mentioned in my first paragraphs with terrific conviction, allowing director Marvin Kren to serve up arguably one of the best, most claustrophic creature features this side of Ridley Scott's original ALIEN. No, it isn't nearly in the same league as ALIEN, but its heart certainly pumps the same blood.
And hats off to the casting department! While some might read this and find it as a slight or an insult to those involved, I certainly don't mean it that way in any estimation: director Kren has smartly populated his picture with wonderfully average-looking folk. From the hero to the Minister, these are faces you'd see in any crowd, and that helps elevate the otherworldly science and bizarrely Moreau-inspired creations to the point wherein the audience can accept them and not require more proof that they'd be possible. Gerhard Liebmann's Janek bares only a passing resemblance to Kurt Russell (as he appeared in John Carpenter's THE THING) – which I suspect was deliberate – but he in no way has the face one would associate with having made Walt Disney films in his youth. His is a rough'n'tumble everyman, and when he sheds tears over a loss you get a sense that he means it. Brilliant job by all involved.
Plus, BLOOD GLACIER is rendered with as few shots at the sky as possible, giving the film a tone heavily steeped in claustrophia. The rare appearance of the sky is mostly used when contrast is needed (for tonal elements), and everything remains draped in layers of Earth. It's a grim, foreboding experience, and it was shot in a way to heighten those elements.
Lastly, what an insanely creepy coda (before the obligatory last scare). The thought of what's possible is always more frightening than anything captured on film, and while I hope no one tries to cash in on any BLOOD GLACIER 2 there's enough room for a sequel if (and only if) it improves on the original's bleakness.
BLOOD GLACIER (2013) is produced by Allegro Film, Filmfonds Wien, Filmstandort Austria, and a few others (if you're that interested, check out their entry at
). DVD distribution (stateside) is being handled by MPI Media Group under the IFC Midnight label. For those needing it spelled out perfectly, this is a German-spoken-language release with either the original German track or an English-dubbed track available. (However, you've been warned: the English-dubbed track is one of the worst dubbing jobs I've seen as of late, and I don't recommend it at all. It's distractingly bad.) As for the technical specifications, this is a mostly smartly assembled production – the practical special effects aren't the best I've seen, but they're good enough so far as this fan of monster movies is concerned. Lastly, if you're looking for special features, there sadly aren't any.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Bravo to all those involved in bringing the awfully-named BLOOD GLACIER to life! It's a deliciously delightful monster movie that only resorts to CGI when it absolutely had to in order to deliver some wonderful old-school scares in such a New Age cautionary chiller. It has a few minor blemishes in the plot department – like where and how did that glacier just up and disappear in the film's middle – but that's chump change against the bloody money shots.
In the interests of fairness, I'm pleased to disclose that the fine folks at MPI Media Group provided me with a DVD copy of BLOOD GLACIER by request for the expressed purposes of completing this review; and their contribution to me in no way, shape, or form influenced my opinion of it.

Senders and Tollefson found that the force and stroke required to close the eyelid with the sling were well within the attainable range of the artificial muscle. This capability may allow the creation of a realistic and functional eyelid blink that is symmetric and synchronous with the normal, functioning blink. A similar system also could give children born with facial paralysis a smile.
The three-layered artificial muscle was developed by engineers at SRI International of Palo Alto, Calif., in the 1990s. Inside is a piece of soft acrylic or silicon layered with carbon grease. When a current is applied, electrostatic attractions causes the outer layers to pull together and squash the soft center. This motion expands the artificial muscle. The muscle contracts when the charge is removed and flattens the shape of the sling, blinking the eye. When the charge is reactivated, the muscle relaxes and the soft center reverts back to its original shape.
"The amount of force and movement the artificial muscle generates is very similar to natural muscle," Tollefson said. An implanted battery source similar to those used in cochlear implants would power the artificial muscle.
For patients who have one functioning eyelid, a sensor wire threaded over the normal eyelid could detect the natural blink impulse and fire the artificial muscle at the same time. Among patients lacking control of either eyelid, an electronic pacemaker similar to those used to regulate heartbeats could blink the eye at a steady rate, and be deactivated by a magnetic switch.
The researchers are now refining the technique on cadavers and animal modes. They estimate the technology will be available for patients within the next five years.

LITHONIA, Ga. (AP) - Some parents fear sending their children to a school bus stop in an Atlanta suburb, saying wild boars have been spotted roaming in a subdivision.
Taneisha Danner tells WSB-TV that some giant hogs chased her children back into the house. Residents say four boars have been seen wandering through their Lithonia subdivision in DeKalb County and rummaging through trash in that neighborhood.
The Atlanta station, which reports that one boar is as tall as a man's waist, aired video of the animals hanging around the subdivision. Neighbors said they've notified DeKalb County police and animal control authorities.
Police said they planned to contact the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.
