New work knocking at the door
Barbara's working on a suspense thriller, and I've offered to give her some crits on it. It's a cool, slick novel, and even though it's about Russians, who I don't particularly have a fondness for, critting it has me in the mood to write a suspense of my own, and I've got notes on two that I'm considering doing. On the other hand, I'd love to write an urban fantasy in the spirit of Charles de Lint, but I don't have a good solid idea for that as of yet.
Choosing what's next is simple for some people, particularly those who write fast. But for someone like me, who is the proverbial tortoise, the next project has to be right, because if the next one takes five years like this one did, then it may be my last because as much as I drink, I expect to die of liver disease at an early age. Okay, I kid, but the books I'll get to write while still of a relatively sane mind will be limited. I'd like to write ten, but there's no telling whether I'll get that much time.
On a different subject, I was going to post my strategy on naming characters, then I had a conversation with my good friend Marie Dees. Marie has a degree or maybe even a masters in writing (I can't remember for sure) and she's published a bunch of stuff the old fashioned way, not the do-it-yourself Indie plan. We were discussing a writer's website on which the writer gives lessons. I don't remember if she said the writer charged for them, but even if the writer doesn't, the advice given by amateurs like myself can do more harm than good sometimes. So I decided to put up this disclaimer instead: don't listen to anything I say. It's all bullshit. I don't know what I'm doing, and if you follow any of the advice I've given, you're a fucking moron.
There, I feel better. (The name post was going to be my best one, too. I guarantee it was going to change the way writers think about names, but now I'll keep it to myself.)
Seriously, most writers' blogs are for the benefit of their friends. Nobody in their right mind peruses blogs like this, unless they know the person writing them. Generally, they're diaries. Anyone who's seen Avatar remembers the scenes in which the MC records his thoughts for science and posterity. That's what this is. A record of milestones and bullshit, half of it so cryptic because I can't bring myself to show any words from the WIP until it's done, that the posts probably don't make sense.
I actually started blogging about ten years ago over on AOL Journals, or J-Land, as it was known. They've since nuked that part of their services since it wasn't bringing in any money. At the time, there were writers on there who weren't published yet, but have published since. One of those authors I befriended on there was John Scalzi, the very talented author who has since hit the NYT bestseller list with one or two of his sci-fi books. Scalzi's blog on J-Land was riot. Now his website is boring as shit, but it's well designed to promote his novels and book signings. There's an innocence lost I think once one is published. A hesitation to show prospective clients a seedier or more amateurish side. I think that's a shame. Presenting a controlled persona just doesn't float my boat. If I'm ever lucky enough to land an agent, it'll be one of the more interesting conversations I think I'll have with him/her. Is showing one's true colors detrimental to sales? I'd like to hear how that is.

At least your blog posts are cohesive, Fred. I know I just waffle. But luckily you're right - only friends read them so I'm safe from some snazzy agent deciding I'm a moron.ReplyDelete
That chapter sounds like a book in itself! Funny thing the way my chapters sort of come out at the same length - yet my WIP they are all much shorter. I have no idea why. When I say short - I mean less than 3,000 words. Usually that would be a minimum length for me.
A 13k chapter? *faints*ReplyDelete
Bah, blogs should be fun. Websites can do the selling, but I like a little personality from writers themselves.

New energy economics: How soon will cellulosic ethanol arrive?FARGO - The arrival of ethanol produced from cellulosic feedstock sources has almost been a standing joke within the ethanol industry. Each year it has always been "four to five years down the road" before commercial production would become viable. That has changed because the "four to five years" is now.

Arizona Cardinals
Former Arizona Cardinals QB Matt Leinart not a fan of Titans' hiring of Ken Whisenhunt
Ken Whisenhunt was out of a head coaching job for exactly 379 days.
The Arizona Cardinals fired Whisenhunt on New Year's Eve 2012 after six years on the job. Tuesday, at a news conference in Nashville, he was named the head coach of the Tennessee Titans.
Undoubtedly Whisenhunt had success in the desert, leading the Cardinals to two straight NFC West divisional titles and their only trip to the Super Bowl. But following Kurt Warner's retirement in 2010, things went downhill for Whisenhunt and the Cardinals, who struggled over the next three seasons and failed to groom a quarterback to fill Warner's shoes.
One of the candidates to take Warner's job was Matt Leinart.
The former Heisman Trophy winner and 2006 first-round draft pick of the Cardinals completed 78.6 percent of his passes during the 2010 preseason, but was passed over by Whisenhunt for the starting job, which went to Derek Anderson, who had signed as a free agent prior to the season. Leinart was cut, and signed with the Houston Texans.
Three years later, Leinart is a free agent and dabbling in the media. Monday, on Fox Sports Live, the 30-year-old shared his thoughts on Tennessee's coaching hire.
"I don't think it's a great fit, and I don't think it's great timing, and here's why," Leinart said. "You look at his tenure in Arizona -- only two years, he had success, and in those two years, Kurt Warner ran that football team -- I was a part of it.
"Every single Monday, Kurt Warner would come in an implement 20-to-30 new plays which he would say �I want these in my game plan.' We became a spread offense and we became Kurt Warner's offense. Then Kurt Warner retires, they go 5-11 twice and they go 8-8."
Leinart's thirty-second clock expired at that point, but he concluded with this: "The Tennessee Titans do not have a quarterback right now."
When asked by host Charissa Thompson if Whisenhunt or Warner should have received the credit for the Cardinals' two-year run as a playoff team, Leinart responded again.
"Kurt Warner was fantastic," he said.
Certainly, Leinart was clear that it was Warner, not Whisenhunt, that was the key to Arizona's success. The numbers certainly support that claim.
The Cardinals went 24-18 under Whisenhunt when Warner started games and 21-33 when others were under center.
Tennessee doesn't currently have a franchise-type quarterback on its roster. Jake Locker, a 2011 first-round pick, has been mostly ineffective when healthy. In three seasons, he's only been able to start 18 games, going 8-10. Journeyman Ryan Fitzpatrick is also under contract for 2014.

Katy Perry Takes Prismatic Tour To Belfast
Katy Perry took her Prismatic World Tour to Belfast, bringing her rolling carnival of bright colors and sparkly costumes to a sold out crowd.
Perry dressed as Cleopatra, rode atop a giant golden horse, wore a sparkly pink catsuit to assume her alter ego Kitty Purry, a yellow outfit complete with a smiley face bra and dressed as a peacock as well. She also took the time to toast a pint of beer to the crowd.
Perry performed all of her most beloved tracks including "I Kissed a Girl," "Roar," "Part Of Me," Wide Awake" and "Teenage Dream."
After the show Perry took to Twitter, writing: "Um . . . It feels like we never left! Tonight was INSANE in all the best ways. I have a feeling the light hit everyone! #ThePrismaticWorldTour."

Love in the Time of Neoliberalism: Grammars of Affect and Cultures of Capitalism
A defining feature of the contemporary moment has been a radicalization of market ideologies and corporate culture. A series of profound transformations that occurred in the last 40 years have produced a new configuration of the world's political-economic order—variously referred to as "globalized new economy," "late capitalism," or "neoliberalism." Analyses of the neoliberal age usually focus on political, economic, and structural transformations but often fail to consider the impact that these processes have on the everyday and on our intimate modes of experience. This course suggests that there is great analytic promise in the study of how institutional transformations co-articulate with the affective and moral lives of individuals. Moving from the idea that all great transformations "must be affective in order to be effective," we will thus engage the languages and cultures of neoliberalism and explore how the relation between structures and sentiments has been impacted by capitalist rationality and neoliberal morality. Rather than conceiving neoliberalism as a political and economic doctrine, our anthropological journey into the contemporary reorganization of affect will promote an understanding of neoliberalism as a structure of action—and as a form of practical conduct that is—as a "way of doing things." Drawing on a series of hands-on exercises and a combination of theoretical and ethnographic readings from various cultural settings, we will discuss how global forces have been affecting public and private expressions of love, friendship, and sexuality. We will explore the novel aesthetics of desires and pleasures emerging in North America and the Global South and the new romantic vocabularies originating from the digital transformations of love and companionship. And we will reflect on the forces underlying the contemporary commodification of emotions. While learning about specific examples of the neoliberal political economy of intimacy, we will engage broader theoretical questions: How pervasive are neoliberal structures of practice? To what extent can neoliberalism be represented as an overarching and coherent global trend externally generated by the homogenizing forces of Late Western Capitalism? Is our moral and affective experience completely shaped by the extension of economic rationality to all areas of life? Or is there a way of looking at the current hypertrophic expansion of market logics that can reveal hidden fissures and unlock a potential for emancipatory expression?

John Travolta & Olivia Newton John Reunite for Christmas Album, Out Today, 11/13
When your first single from the Grease album, the biggest movie musical of all time, is chart-topping "You're the One That I Want, and it becomes the best-selling duet in pop music history -- that's a tough act to follow. But almost 35 years later, John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John have combined their iconic voices for This Christmas, available today, November 13 from Universal Music Enterprises.
A true labor of love made specifically for "the giving season," Travolta and Newton-John will donate the artist proceeds from the album equally to their respective charities, the Jett Travolta Foundation and the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre in Melbourne, Australia.
One of the highlights of the album is the one original song, the aptly titled "I Think You Might Like It." This is the sequel to John and Olivia's Grease smash, "You're the One That I Want," a new tune by that song's writer/producer John Farrar, marking yet another This Christmas-spawned reunion. "John Farrar was just as hard on me now as he was then," laughs Travolta. "We went for perfection on it." "It was really fun to do that," says Olivia. "If it wasn't for that song, we wouldn't be here talking about it 30 years later."
Produced by veteran keyboardist/arranger/orchestrator Randy Waldman, This Christmas is the audio equivalent of those classic network TV specials hosted from the stars' homes, an intimate, warm set of traditional holiday songs from an all-star lineup that includes Barbra Streisand ("I'll Be Home for Christmas"), Tony Bennett and the Count Basie Orchestra ("Winter Wonderland"), James Taylor ("Deck the Halls"), Chick Corea ("This Christmas"), Kenny G ("Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree"), Cliff Richard ("Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas") and the original "I Think You Might Like It" by writer/producer John Farrar.
The idea for the collection came from Travolta after receiving a Christmastime text from his old friend Olivia noting that their 1978 smash, "You're the One That I Want," had just become the best-selling duet in pop music history. "From the moment we decided to do this, magic happened," says Travolta. "Everyone we contacted agreed to do it."
"It just fell into place," added Newton-John, a four-time Grammy® winner, who has scored five No. 1 singles and two chart-topping albums, selling a total of more than 100 million albums worldwide. "With our busy schedules, I don't know how we got it done. John and I have always connected. That's never gone away. When we're together, we have a good laugh and feel bonded to one another. We've been through some amazing experiences together."
"My desire was to make This Christmas an intimate album, not something too ostentatious or showy," says Travolta, who early in his career was featured as an actor/singer/dancer with the touring company of Grease. "I wanted people to be able to play it around the house or in the car during the holidays, and make us part of your celebration. Gathering around house listening to Christmas music has always been an important part of that time of the year to my family."
But the real importance of This Christmas is the money it will raise to fund Travolta and Newton-John's charities -- one to combat children's disabilities, including autism and seizures, named after John's late son, Jett; the other to help search for a cure for cancer and to help victims of the disease.
"We all felt a wonderful, joyful energy while recording this album," adds Olivia. "We want to make a lot of people smile and happy. It's a project that we're hoping turns into a perennial, one that can continue to raise money for these causes year after year, a gift that keeps on giving."

Pomegranate Glazed Asado
December 6th 2013By Bracha Arnold
For those of you who just want a recipe to wow your guests at a shabbat meal, we have a slow-braised asado recipe. Asado is a popular cut of meat in Israel. It's a short-rib cut, highly flavorful and full of delicious fat, which makes it wonderfully succulent and tasty. it works best when braised for long periods of time. We made ours with pomegranate juice and garlic, and served it with fried disks of polenta and a mushroom-fig ragu.
Pan Seared Marinated Hanger Steaks with Peppers and Onions
October 6th 2014By Ronnie Fein
Hanger steaks have become extremely popular in recent years (you may have noticed how expensive they have become as a result). They aren't as elegant as the even more costly rib steaks, but they are flavorful and just perfect for a casual, bistro-type meal. Serve them with "frites" or corn on the cob as accompaniments.

Grilled Steaks with Chimichurri
May 6th 2013By Jamie Geller
Chimichurri originally hails from Argentina and is a great sauce for marinating or serving with grilled meat. The classic base mix is a combo of minced parsley, oregano, garlic, olive oil, vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Because finding checked versions of these herbs can be difficult I used a mix of frozen cubes of chopped parsley, basil and cilantro—cutting the prep down to less than 10 minutes. Dorot also offers a jar of pre-made chimichurri if you really want to save time.

Asian Steak
March 7th 2011By Jamie Geller
This braise features bone-in chuck steak in an irresistible Asian-style sauce. You won't be disappointment by this effortless dish. Another winner from Grandma Martha Geller's treasure chest inspired by a New York Times recipe published a few decades back. She told me to put everything in the pan in stages—but of course, I didn't listen. I wish all chefs would try making their recipes easy first. It seems to me they make them complicated and time-consuming on purpose: "In 1 hour add celery; twiddle your thumbs and wash your hair; and an hour later, add the water chestnuts, one at a time." Do you find that everyone seems to be working backwards—taking simple recipes and then figuring out how to make them more cumbersome—or is it just me?

Knee injuries are among the most common injuries in sports and exercise.
Fortunately, most knee injuries do not require surgery. Maybe you injure your knee landing awkwardly from a jump playing volleyball on the beach on Sullivan's Island. Maybe you twist your knee playing Mount Pleasant coed league soccer.
If you suffer a knee injury, how can you know if it is serious and worth seeing an orthopaedic surgeon? Or do you need to go to an emergency room or urgent care facility in the Charleston area?
This list is far from comprehensive, but here are some signs you have a knee injury that might require surgery or absence from sports or exercise.
You heard a pop. I don't mean a small pop like the one you feel when you crack your knuckles. I'm also not talking about the popping many of you feel under your kneecaps normally with knee motion. If you hear or feel a loud, painful pop during an awkward landing or when you get hit in the knee, you could have torn a ligament. Many athletes say that their teammates heard the pop when they tore their ACLs.
Your knee buckled or gave way. If your knee buckled when you landed from a jump or changed direction suddenly, you could have suffered ligament damage, such as an ACL tear. Alternatively, if you experience your knee giving out with twisting or landing movements in sports weeks or months after an injury, you should consider seeing a sports medicine doctor. True knee instability with activities can risk further damage to the meniscus or articular cartilage.
Your knee is swollen. It might not be a big deal for your knee to have a small amount of fluid present. On the other hand, if your knee swells up like a basketball in the first few hours after an injury, you could have an ACL tear or fracture.
Your knee is locked. Younger athletes can often tear the meniscus in such away that the inner, torn fragment can flip into the center of the knee and block motion. These bucket-handle meniscus tears often require surgery. The surgeon must push the meniscus back into place and repair it with sutures or anchors. Milder or more chronic forms of knee locking or catching also can suggest you have a meniscus tear.
You can't bear weight. Extreme pain trying to walk is somewhat of a generic complaint. Many injuries can be serious enough to cause pain when you try to put pressure on the injured leg. It is still a sign you might consider seeking medical attention.
You cannot fully extend the knee. Pain, swelling, and inflammation after acute injuries can all make knee range of motion difficult. If a patient comes to my office days after an injury and I can't straighten the knee, I get at least a little concerned. It can be a nonspecific finding, though. Regardless, I have often found ACL tears, acute meniscus tears, patellar dislocations, and more in these circumstances.
Your knee hurts in a very specific location. Patients with meniscus tears usually complain of pain in a very specific spot along the joint line rather than throughout the knee. Medial meniscus tears often hurt along the medial (inside) and posterior (back) side of the knee. Lateral meniscus tears often cause pain along the lateral (outside) and posterior aspect of the knee. Likewise, stress fractures usually cause localized pain on the bone at the site of the fracture.
I hope that this list is helpful. Again, it is by no means comprehensive. Also, please understand that it is not intended to replace the advice of your doctor of orthopaedic surgeon. If anything, I hope you would consider seeing your doctor sooner after injury if you have any of these complaints.

The museum's executive director says the sinkhole appeared before dawn under the Skydome section of the site. The hole is about 40-feet wide and between 25-to-30-feet deep. The executive director says six of the cars were donated to the museum.
For now, it's unclear what the value of the damaged cars is, but the executive director called it "substantial."
A structural engineer was called to the scene to assess the situation.

Asian Pacific American Heritage Month recognizes the history, concerns, contributions and achievements of Asian Pacific Americans and their role in the American story. While the Asian Pacific American experience reaches across borders and spans oceans, with roots in the Asian continent and archipelagos across the Pacific Ocean, the Asian Pacific American story reflects the American spirit. Like so many other communities in America, Asian Pacific Americans worked to expand frontiers, forging the iron rails that linked sea to shining sea. They shed blood to defend the nation and stood up to preserve its cherished values, in classrooms and courtrooms, in legislatures and in the streets.
This quintessentially American story—the story that the Smithsonian seeks to tell—has yet to be fully told.
The Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center has selected the title of a poem by Filipino American writer Carlos Bulosan (1913–1956) as the theme for Asian Pacific American Heritage Month 2013. Born after the end of the Philippine-American War (1899–1902), when the relationship between the Philippines and the United States remained uncertain, Bulosan came to America in search of opportunity. But, like most Asian Pacific Americans of his time, Bulosan's life in America was defined by hardship and discrimination. In spite of this experience, however, Bulosan continued to believe in America as a powerful symbol of freedom for the world. Bulosan's poem, I Want the Wide American Earth, captures how the Asian Pacific American experience is aspirational—in spite of the challenges that define a particular era, generations of Asian Pacific Americans have remained steadfast in their belief in America.
As Bulosan so eloquently writes:
"Before the brave, before the proud builders and workers,
I say I want the wide American earth
For all the free.
I want the wide American earth for my people.
I want my beautiful land.
I want it with my rippling strength and tenderness
Of love and light and truth
For all the free."

2 x line-ins and 2 x headphone outs?
Hi all
Wondered if anyone could help me on this one:
In my teaching studio I want to be able to mix the line outputs of my DTX module and laptop (playing mp3 or CD play-along tracks) and have 2 pairs of headphones listening to the combine output (ie.myself and the student).
Most small mixers only seem to have 1 x headphone socket and most compact headphone amps only seem to have 1 single input. I have some across this http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...ter_Mixer.html
Will this do the job? I don't think the line-in levels will be a problem but I'm concerned that, being passive, the headphone level will be too low.
Any thoughts?
Re: 2 x line-ins and 2 x headphone outs?
Seems like you should break the problem down and get 2 devices, a line mixer and a headphone amp. You can get a 4 channel headphone amp for like $20 or $30.
Re: 2 x line-ins and 2 x headphone outs?
On my DTXplorer kit I have an AUX in, and I will make the assumption yours has the same thing.
If it were me, (and I just tried this on my DTXplorer so I know it works) I would run the Laptop into the DTX, adjust the balance using the AUX IN volume (Laptop volume) and the DTX volume. Run a 1/4" TRS to 1/4" mono TS splitter cable from the Left and Right outputs on your DTX to a Behringer HA4700 headphone amp (or similar, its just what I have).
The two mono ends go in the "Left Out" and "Right Out" of the DTX. The stereo end (TRS or Tip Ting Sleeve) goes into the "Direct In" on the front of the HA4700. Then up to 4 people can listen in and have their own volume bass and treble controls.
Re: 2 x line-ins and 2 x headphone outs?
Hmm. I always distrust set-ups like this if you opt for a 'no mixing board' approach, just because you'll be dealing with different levels on the lines. For such a simple set-up, I would suggest a little Behringer mixer (sub-$80) and adding a small headphone amp. ART makes a small headphone amp like the box you pictured that I bought for $50. So, a small investment, but you'll have separate control of all the line levels, which I think is the best solution.
Re: 2 x line-ins and 2 x headphone outs?
Thanks for your help guys. I am very limited in terms of space and power sockets in my studio so I'm looking for the most compact way possible to achieve this. Ideally I'd like to have the whole set-up (lap-top, mixer/headphone amp) mounted onto my DTX rack (RS500).
Have any of you heard of Alto mixers, like this one? http://www.absolutemusic.co.uk/recor...ixer.html#info
How about that with just a headphone splitter cable?

Toronto, Ontario (PRWEB) February 27, 2013
Customers are becoming more and more accustomed to searching, finding and interacting with their favourite brands and businesses online. Social media marketing has now become a necessity for businesses of all sizes.
Bassem Ghali, Founder and Head of Client Strategy at Green Lotus recommends businesses incorporate a social media strategy in their online marketing plans, promoting social engagement, reach, and brand awareness.
Even though businesses recognize the need for social media, Bassem notes that many businesses either don't have a social media plan and use social platforms irregularly; or they are simply too busy to manage their social media accounts, develop their networks, provide fresh content to their audiences, and keep up with messages and comments.
"Having a stale, or worse - inactive, social presence can be very damaging to a business, and their online reputation. An inactive social profile has no benefit in lead generation and SEO, and also reflects on a businesses' lack of marketing management, and commitment to online audiences. If a business cannot implement and consistently manage their social media strategy, on a consistent ongoing basis, they are better off outsourcing the job."
Green Lotus Social Media Strategies are tailored to meet the specific online marketing needs of businesses; large, medium and small.

In the last few weeks, there have been several developments related to Unification of the profession. We updating you on events that have transpired across the country, and most fundamentally, here in Saskatchewan.
On May 15th CGA Ontario announced that they have terminated discussions. There were several communications from Ontario citing their concerns about significant issues that remained unresolved. CMA Ontario also terminated their involvement in the discussions. However, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Ontario has confirmed that they remain committed to the national unification process.
On Wednesday, May 16th, the Quebec CMA, CA and CGA bodies informed their members that the Province of Quebec has passed Bill 61, the Chartered Professional Accountants Act to create the Ordre des comptables professionnels agréés (CPA) du Québec. The Canadian accounting landscape now includes four professional designations with approximately one in five, or 35,000, of Canada's 170,000 professional accountants, being Chartered Professional Accountants.
On May 17th the CGA Alberta and CMA Alberta Boards released a Provincial Merger Proposal, based on common principles. The Institute of Chartered Accountants is not part of the merger discussions in Alberta.
On May 23rd, CGA New Brunswick announced that it was withdrawing from talks there.
Further, on May 24th CGA British Columbia advised that, following CGA Ontario, they have determined to terminate discussions. Both the CAs and CMAs remain in discussions in B.C.
Lastly, CGA Canada announced today that they have terminated National unification discussions.
Over several months of merger discussions, provincial bodies have been negotiating on different terms and with different timelines.
CGA Saskatchewan Decision
The Board of Governors of CGA Saskatchewan have considered developments across the nation and carefully assessed the situation. The Board endorses unification under the right conditions. After keen thought and extensive deliberations, the CGA Saskatchewan Board has made a determination to withdraw from unification discussions. The Board does not believe that proceeding with discussions at this time would be prudent and in the best interest of our members.
The Board and the Association remain committed to advancing the profession and the interests of our members and students. We continue to work with other CGA Affiliates and the Federation regarding next steps. We will keep you apprised of these next steps, other developments and decisions.
As always, we want to hear your views and we encourage you to contact us at: email@example.com.

Drama, SciFi/Fantasy
Wim Wenders revisits his masterpiece Der Himmel Uber Berlin in this film which picks up several years after the original left off. Cassiel (Otto Sander) is an angel who watches over the lives of the people of recently reunified Berlin with Raphaella (Nastassja Kinski). Damiel (Bruno Ganz), Cassiel's former partner who opted to return to the land of the living in the first film, now lives happily as a pizza chef with the woman he loved and married, circus performer Marion (Solveig Dommartin). While angels are forbidden to directly intervene in the lives of humans, Cassiel impulsively breaks this rule when a little girl falls from the balcony of an apartment block, and he swoops down to catch her. Suddenly made flesh and blood, Cassiel has earned the enmity of Emit Flesti (Willem Dafoe), a sort of overseer of the angels on the physical plane. Emit makes it his business to make things difficult for Cassiel now that he's living among the humans, and after a period of alcoholism and imprisonment, Cassiel finds himself working for gangster Tony Baker (Horst Buchholz), who distributes weapons and pornography on the black market. However, Cassiel has a change of heart and decides to destroy Tony's stockpile in a bid to make the world a better place. Peter Falk, who played himself in Der Himmel Uber Berlin, makes a return appearance when a gallery shows the sketches that he was making in the first film; rock singer Lou Reed and former Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev also appear as themselves.~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

A SUICIDE bomber yesterday blew himself up and killed 22 people in Pakistan as Zimbabwe prepared to leave today for a cricket tour of the violence-torn Asian country.
However, Zimbabwe Cricket chairman Peter Chingoka insisted all the players and officials travelling to Pakistan were "comfortable".
There were doubts that the tour would go ahead due to the violence that has rocked Pakistan since former prime minister and opposition leader Benazir Bhutto was assassinated on December 27.
Yesterday's blast at the Lahore High Court was the latest in a wave of attacks targeting politicians and security forces ahead of parliamentary elections on February 18.
Because of the volatile situation, the International Cricket Council was forced to move next month's qualifying tournament for the Women's World Cup in which Zimbabwe are participating to South Africa.
However, Chingoka said Zimbabwe would proceed with the tour after getting assurance from the Pakistan Cricket Board over the safety and security situation.
"We will be touring Pakistan. The players and their technical staff are all comfortable with the tour," Chingoka said yesterday.
"I will accompany the team on the first leg of the tour."
The Zimbabwe squad were scheduled to fly from Harare to Johannesburg today en route to Karachi, Pakistan, for the tour which comprises five one-day internationals and opens with a four-day match in Karachi.
Prosper Utseya leads a familiar 15-man squad that includes Raymond Price, Tatenda Taibu, Brendan Taylor and Elton Chigumbura.
Since 1992, Zimbabwe and Pakistan have played 35 times, with the Asian giants winning 31 of the encounters.
Zimbabwe have won just two times, while two matches between them were tied.
The two sides last met at Sabina Park in Jamica in a World Cup match last year which Pakistan won by 93 runs.
Zimbabwe squad
Prosper Utseya (captain), Gary Brent, Chamunorwa Chibhabha, Elton Chigumbura, Keith Dabengwa, Timycen Maruma, Hamilton Masakadza, Stuart Matsikenyeri, Christopher Mpofu, Tawanda Mupariwa, Raymond Price, Vusimuzi Sibanda, Tatenda Taibu, Brendan Taylor, Sean Williams.

I spend most days looking at new business models for entertaining us Americans and let me tell you, we spend a lot of time and money on distraction. But the cultural Eeyores who bemoan this often overlook an essential truth: We will pay attention when it is really important.
Which could almost make a retweet on Ann Coulters' account yesterday ironic:
I say "almost" ironic, because truly ironic would imply Coulter actually cares whether Mitt Romney wins the presidential election next month. I doubt she does. Four more years of Obama does her brand more good than anything, and she knows that.
But let's set aside my own cynicism for a moment and say Coulter really does want Obama to lose. Then that retweet, nestled alongside a series of lame race-baiting, would be a reflection of how badly she misses the point. Because instead of focusing on the release of a set of emails written by White House administration officials hours after the raid and massacre in Benghazi, which could potentially do the Obama Administration damage, Ann Coulter was one of two sideshows gobbling up Social Media last night. The other was Donald Trump.
Technically, it wasn't Coulter burning up Twitter and Facebook. It was John Franklin Stephens, whose guest post on the Special Olympics Blog took Coulter to task for writing:
Stephens wrote:
Well, Ms. Coulter, you, and society, need to learn that being compared to people like me should be considered a badge of honor.
And with that powerful "Open Letter," Stephens was deflating a story that really does deserve consideration at this point in the election: Why did the Obama Administration continue to obfuscate about the real source of the Benghazi attacks weeks after the fact?
But that's not all. No, Donald Trump dropped a bombshell on that important question by offering this October surprise yesterday:
Surprise! Nothing. If you're interested in the reaction, it was well covered by the Hollywood Reporter.
As Alex Pereene points out in Salon, there really never is an October surprise. What we're getting instead is an October distraction. The complaint is often made that celebrities are too involved in politics. And they are involved. This semester at Colorado State University, we've seen President Obama visit, but also Will.i.am, Jared Leto, Kal Penn and John Cho (of Harold and Kumar fame — Penn, to be fair, has worked intermittently in the White House for Obama).
But they are not the biggest distraction. Far larger, it seems, are semi-public figures, or quai political thinkers, who purposefully blur the line between that role and celebrity. And this where the cynics who fret we've lost our way have their best argument.
Coulter and Trump aren't taking their lumps for, but they're fine. Because most importantly:

Adrian Mutu scored twice as Romania came from behind to record a 3-1 victory over Luxembourg, their first win of their UEFA EURO 2012 qualification campaign.
Lars Gerson gave the visitors a surprise lead midway through the first half, but Mutu struck back immediately and completed the comeback in the 68th minute. Ianis Zicu added a third to put the game beyond Luxembourg and give Romania their first win in five Group D games.
They stayed fifth in the group, but moved to within a point of Bosnia-Herzegovina and two of Belarus and Albania.
The hosts were stunned in the 21st minute when Gabriel Muresan could only clear Mario Mutsch's free-kick as far as Gerson. The 21-year-old, who plays his club football in the Norwegian second division, fired a left-footed shot back into the top corner from the centre of the area.
Romania were back on level terms three minutes later, though, as Mutu slid a low shot into the corner following Muresan's ball from the right. Luxembourg were frustrating their opponents, who needed a win to stay in touch with the race for second place in the group, but were struggling to create chances.
They had to wait until the 68th minute to take the lead, and again it was Mutu to provided the finish. Gabriel Torje sent in a right-wing cross and Fiorentina striker Mutu headed it high into the net.
Luxembourg almost hit back immediately, but Ciprian Tatarusanu tipped Daniel Da Mota's close-range shot over the bar. Zicu sealed the points for Romania in the 78th minute when he headed home from Razvan Rat's corner.
Muresan had a chance to make it four a minute from time, but goalkeeper Jonathan Joubert saved his shot with his feet.

"Poised" Rule 5 kid could be factor in Cubs' penContinue reading.
Cubs acquire another elbow-surgery comeback pitcher in Rule 5 draft
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — In keeping with an emerging pattern, the Cubs this morning nabbed another Tommy John surgery graduate with the potential to be an impact pitcher if healthy – taking 6-foot-3 power pitcher Hector Rondon with the second overall pick in Thursday's Rule 5 draft on the final day of the winter meetings.
The right-hander, once a touted starting prospect in Cleveland's system, has missed much of the past three seasons because of the elbow reconstruction surgery, and, subsequently, a broken bone in the elbow suffered while pitching.
More recently, he was throwing 97 mph in a handful of late-summer rehab appearances and into the Venezuelan winter season, and was considered a contender for the Indians' bullpen in 2013.
According to the Indians, Rondon, 24, was left exposed to the draft because the team was especially deep in relievers.
"We've been watching him in Venezuela this winter, and he's throwing the ball really, really well. He's got a great arm," Cubs general manager Jed Hoyer said. "We feel we can capitalize that he's healthy now and throwing the ball really well. Hopefully, he can recapture what made him [one of the] Indians top pitching prospects.
"We felt like this is a guy that has a chance to be really good right away. If he can stay healthy, obviously that's been his challenge. But the stuff coming out of his hand is pretty impressive right now."
As with Lendy Castillo last year, the Cubs must keep Rondon on the 25-man roster all year or offer him back to Cleveland for half the $50,000 drafting price.
The Cubs also lost four players in Thursday's draft, including right-hander Starling Peralta to the Arizona Diamondbacks in the major-league portion of the draft. Peralta 5-8 with a 3.44 ERA in 20 games (17 starts) for Class A Peoria last season.
The Cubs lost three more players in the minor-league side of the draft: outfielder Michael Burgess (to Houston), infielder Matt Cerda (St. Louis) and right-hander Alvido Jimenez (Toronto) – a surprise to some considering how thin on talent the front office has said the system has been since taking over a year ago.
"Sometimes [losing so many players] is a good sign, that you have enough depth that you can't protect everyone at the AAA roster," Hoyer said. "You never want to lose guys but you know it's part of what happens. As we get deeper, we'll lose more. But it's something you never want. You're always disappointed when you hear your name called during these meetings."

Robert Englund's The Last Showing - New Official Poster
Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger) and director Phil Hawkins are bringing us new horror movie, The Last Showing (2014). Robert Englund is a very scary actor and I can not wait to see where he takes this role. The Last Showing stars Finn Jones (Game Of Thrones), Emily Berrington (The White Queen) and Keith Allen (Trainspotting). Drop us a comment with your thoughts on this horror movie.
Synopsis: When a life-long projectionist (Robert Englund aka Freddy Krueger) is made redundant he looks to exact his vengeance on a generation that no longer requires his skills. He traps a couple inside his multiplex cinema and manipulates them into becoming characters in a horror film being captured by CCTV cameras.

Glover Teixeira Not Worried About Being No. 1 or Fighting for the UFC Belt Just Yet | MMAWeekly.com
Im a big fan of Quinton Jackson, Teixeira said on the Fuel TV post-fight show. I told him, hes my idol. And he said, Now Im your fan. Go get em. Go and be a champion.
With such an impressive winning streak, coupled with his UFC trifecta, Teixeira, alongside Alexander Gustaffson and Strikeforce transplant Gegard Mousasi, are among the top contenders to the light heavyweight throne.
Teixeira is a realist, however, knowing that he doesnt want to sit on the sidelines waiting for possibilities, and wants to be ready when the possibility becomes a reality. He wants to jump right back in the Octagon and stay busy. Now that hes in the UFC, he wants to fight, not wait.
Asked if he now considered himself to be the No. 1 contender in the division, Teixeira made no bones about his answer.
No, thats not my job (to determine), he said. No. 1 contender now is Chael Sonnen. You gotta respect that and let him see whats happening. I think Chael is a good fighter, but I believe that Jon (Jones) is going to keep the title.
Jones and Sonnen, currently the coaches on the latest run of The Ultimate Fighter, will square off in the UFC 159 headliner this April in New Jersey. And UFC president Dana White has already declared that if Dan Henderson defeats Lyoto Machida in the UFC 157 co-main event in late February, he will be next up for the Jones vs. Sonnen winner.
Thats an element that factors heavily into Teixeiras thinking when asked if he wanted to fight the winner of Jones and Sonnen, especially with the possibility that Henderson could already be waiting in the wings ahead of him.
No, because its gonna take too long. I want to fight before that.

Rastafarians believe that the infighting among Africans and Afro-Diasporic people has to stop. This idea was influenced by Marcus Garvey's ideology of Pan-Africanism, which promoted unity and "collective self-reliance" among the nations of Africa and the people of the African Diaspora.

WASHINGTON, DC – Life is beautiful in the nation's capital: tulips and azaleas line the streets, the air is sweet with the scent of the city's signature cherry blossoms, now past their peak. It seems a shame to pollute the atmosphere with something as crass as politics, and Washington residents are happy to oblige. "When... Read more »

Education is in shambles. Blame can be equally split between deteriorating morals and values, and also the No Child Left Behind program. In reality, it IS partially about funding, as teachers' compensation is sometimes tied to students' test scores. Also, the curriculum is taught to a test, not to promote knowledge. It's all about the kids doing well on a test, which does nothing for their brains.
As for the potential economic boom, yes, Obama will probably get credit for it. However, as good as the 90's tech boom was, Clinton actually STIFLED the economic expansion with his fiscal policy. Let's hope Obama makes the right fiscal moves during the economic rebound so that we can really springboard out of this recession in the next year or two.
Understood, but religion must have a part in your comment because by asking for fellow Christians' defense of Obama, you are indirectly suggesting that Obama's policies are not as good as McCain's in the context of Christianity.
Gay Marriage and abortion should be a moral dilemma, not a religious dilemma, but in reality there is far more religion involved in these issues than there should be.
God has nothing to do with who won the election. There are plenty of other religions and agnostics that voted in this election too. It is the will of the people, not the will of God. I am sick of hearing about God from presidents. I think republicans bring Church and State way too close together.
Also, "we are going to pay for it" is an incredibly ignorant thing to say. As DC Dave said, no one even blinked at Obama's skin color. It's unfortunate that we still have a racist population in the south.

I get lunch from there every day and the food itself is great, big portions the whole 9 yards. My issue is with the service itself. I provide clear, simple written instructions and they fail to provide me with what I request. Sometimes it's something completely different than what I order. It's a real shame since the food is so good. I've even started ordering the same thing every day, to help avoid confusion on their side, and they still mess it up. I've spoken to them on multiple occasions and there is still no change. Poor customer service Ben and Irv's....

This place is defintely better than the other so called Jewish style delis in the area. I have been there a few times and recieved great service and good food from a menu that is quite varied. The other ones are a waste of time and apppeal only to the folks that wanna stuff their gut versus getting quality stuff. the cabbage borscht is real good here

2014-2015 Religion Courses
The Buddhist Tradition in East Asia
This introductory course focuses on the Buddhism of East Asia: China, Korea, Japan, and Vietnam. Buddhism first began to take root in China in the early centuries of the Common Era, having been transmitted from India via Central Asia and the maritime states of Southeast Asia. Buddhism initially met with much resistance, being branded an "alien" cult that was at odds with native Chinese (especially Confucian) values. Eventually, however, the Indian religion adapted to Chinese culture and came to have a profound influence on it, spawning new schools of Buddhism such as Tiantai, Huayan, Pure Land, and Chan (called Zen in Japan). The smaller, neighboring countries that fell under the sway of Chinese civilization—Korea, Japan, and Vietnam—first imported forms of Buddhism that had taken shape in China, not India; but each, in turn, further changed the religion in ways that accorded with their own indigenous cultures. Equal attention is paid in this course to (1) matters of philosophy and doctrine, (2) religious rites and practices, and (3) social and institutional arrangements. The lectures are accompanied by copious audiovisual materials. The course has no prerequisite; it is suitable for students who have already taken the companion lecture—The Buddhist Tradition in India, Tibet, and Southeast Asia—offered in the fall.
The Buddhist Tradition in India, Tibet, and Southeast Asia
This intoductory course treats the evolution of Buddhism in India from the origins of the religion as a group of "world-renouncing" ascetics through the development of large, state-supported monastic communities and the emergence of the major reform movements known as Mahāyāna and Tantra. The course also focuses on the Buddhism of two regions of the world—Southeast Asia and the Tibetan plateau—where the respective traditions have been most self-consciously concerned with maintaining precedents inherited from India. Equal attention is paid to (1) matters of philosophy and doctrine, (2) religious rites and practices, and (3) social and institutional arrangements. The lectures are accompanied by copious audiovisual materials. For students who wish to continue studying the development of the Buddhist tradition in other parts of the world. The Buddhist Tradition in East Asia, a companion lecture, is offered in the spring semester.
Chan and Zen Buddhism
This course is an in-depth, historical examination of the philosophy, mythology, literature, institutional arrangements, religious practices, art, and architecture associated with this most famous and widely misunderstood branch of East Asian Buddhism. The Chan (Zen) school of Buddhism arose in China as the result of a cross-cultural exchange of epic proportions: the gradual intrusion of an alien set of religious ideas, values, and practices—those belonging to Indian Buddhism—into China between the first and the eighth centuries of the Common Era and the subsequent efforts of some 20 generations of Chinese Buddhists to defend, adapt, domesticate, and finally make the foreign religion entirely their own. Chan became the most "Chinese" school of Buddhism by defining itself in terms of indigenous concepts of clan genealogy, by exalting members of its spiritual lineage as native-born buddhas, and by allowing those buddhas to speak in the vernacular, using a mode of rhetoric that was heavily influenced by the Confucian and Daoist traditions. The course begins by outlining the Indian Buddhist doctrines and practices that were imported into China and by summarizing the indigenous cultural milieu that was initially quite hostile to the alien religion. We then explore the various compromises and adaptations of Indian Buddhist teachings, practices, and institutions that took shape within the Chan tradition and enabled it to emerge in the Song dynasty (960-1278) as the predominant school of Chinese Buddhism. The main theme of the second semester is the transmission of the Chan school of Buddhism to Japan, where it became known as Zen, and the subsequent development of the tradition in that country from the 13th century to the present. No prior knowledge of East Asian history, languages, or religions is required.
Jewish Mysticism From Antiquity to the Present
This course examines a powerful, vibrant countertrend within Judaism known as mysticism. We begin with the ancient "Chariot Mysticism," proceed to ascetic medieval German pietism, and dwell at length on the erotically-charged "kabbalah" that emerged in medieval Spain and Southern France—its unique conceptions of God, evil, demonology, sin, death, sexuality, and magic. We then follow the emergence of ambitious circles of mystics in 16th-century Safed (Land of Israel) that eventually sparked a mass messianic movement around the figure of Shabbetai Tzevi. In the second semester, we delve into the most popular and enduring Jewish mystical movement, Hasidism. Founded on the teachings the Ba'al Shem Tov (The Besht) in 18th-century Eastern Europe, Hasidism was forged into a mass movement by charismatic miracle workers called "tzaddikim" and spread by means of oral and written tales. We follow the emergence of Hasidic dynasties, gauge Hasidic responses to modern phenomena like Zionism and the Holocaust, and follow the movement's continued flourishing today in tight-knit communities from Brooklyn to Jerusalem. Finally, we will examine the phenomenon of neo-kabbalah. Throughout, we strive to appreciate new manifestations of Jewish mysticism within changing historical contexts.
Pariah Lives: Modern Jewish Fiction and Autobiography
In the late-18th century, Jewish authors began to emerge from the ghetto and grapple openly with the challenges of modernity through genres like fiction and autobiography. Some, like Solomon Maimon, Franz Kafka, Isaac Babel, and Sholem Aleichem (whose short stories formed the basis of the play Fiddler on the Roof), achieved universal acclaim. But the path of the modern Jewish writer was rarely smooth. It usually entailed alienation and rebellion against the Jewish tradition; bouts of nostalgia, longing, and regret; and rejection by non-Jewish societies that were generating increasingly virulent forms of anti-Semitism, culminating in the Holocaust. Despite the ambivalence, tension, and anguish that runs through their writings, we will discover works of great beauty and poignancy that yield profound insights into the modern experience. Throughout the course, we interweave modern works of fiction and autobiographies by Jewish men and women whose outsider, "pariah," status gave them a unique perspective on the world.
Contemporary Muslim Novels and Creative Nonfiction
In 1988, two writers from Muslim backgrounds achieved international fame. One was the Egyptian writer Naguib Mahfouz, who became the first Arab to win the Nobel prize in literature. The other was the British Indian writer Salman Rushdie, who published his novel, The Satanic Verses, in the same year. Within a few months, protests against the portrayal of the Prophet Muhammad in the novel spread worldwide, leading to the banning of the book in numerous countries and the issuing of a fatwa by Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran calling for Rushdie's death. Although the perspectives of Mahfouz and Rushdie on Islam are markedly different, their writings have, in common, a keen interest in religion and culture. In the years since 1988, many new writers have emerged in Muslim majority and minority areas of the world. Their works embrace, resist, reject, transmute, and show nostalgia for the beliefs and practices with which they grew up or have adopted. As natives, immigrants, third culture, or converts, some have actively promoted themselves as Muslim writers, while others question this label or view it as only one signifier of many. The writings that have been selected for this course will be ones that deal substantially with issues of Muslim identity. Previous coursework in Islamic Studies is desirable but not required.
Classical Sufi Texts
Between the 11th and 13th centuries, an impressive body of literature emerged from the religious movement that came to be known as Sufism. These writings describe spiritual disciplines, moral guidelines, and metaphysical thought—sometimes in highly appealing stories and poetry and sometimes in dense but very rich prose. In this course, we will explore excerpts in English translation from the classics of three of the most influential of the mystics from this time period. Qushayri, Rumi, and Ibn 'Arabi are among the most widely read and studied Sufis. Their remarkable intellectual and literary talents have given their works longevity, especially among those who continue to mine them for spiritual wisdom and guidance. All three were intensely committed to Muslim practices, which they sought to understand in profound and expansive ways. This meant thoughtful attention to the details of the legalistic norms of Shari'a even as they articulated a more refined system of ethics based on their readings of the Qur'an and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad. For these Sufis, the subtler virtues to which humans aspire are inextricably linked to views of reality and the human self that are radically different from common notions. Spiritual practice is as much about discipline as it is about understanding things "as they really are." The works to be studied will include long passages from Qushayri's Risala, Rumi's Mathnawi, and Ibn 'Arabi's Futuhat al-makkiyya. Previous coursework or knowledge in Islamic Studies, Sufism, or another mystical tradition is desirable. Permission of the instructor is required.
First-Year Studies: Islam
This course will provide a comprehensive introduction to the foundational texts of Islam, the historical development of different Muslim cultures, and the contemporary issues that animate Islam's ever-evolving manifestations. We will begin with the Qur'an, a book whose juxtaposition of narrative fragments, apocalyptic imagery, divine voice, and sociopolitical themes conveyed in rhymed Arabic prose has both entranced and confounded readers. We will look at the historical roots of the "isms" used today to describe the orientations of Sunnism, Shi'ism, Sufism, and Salafism. Looking beyond the Middle East, where only about 20 percent of the current global Muslim population resides, we will examine how migrating people, concepts, texts, and practices both transform and are transformed by existing traditions in different geographical locations. Contemporary preoccupations such as the status of women in Islam and the relationship between Islam and violence will be examined from a variety of perspectives, illustrating the intricacies of Muslim and non-Muslim acts of interpretation and their relationship to power and authority.
The Hebrew Bible
The Hebrew Bible stands at the foundation of Western culture. Its stories permeate our literature, our art—indeed, our sense of identity. Its ideas inform our laws, have given birth to our revolutions and social movements, and have thereby made most of our social institutions possible (as well as the movements to remove them). What is this book? How was it written? Who wrote it? Who preserved it for us? Why has all or part of this body of literature been considered holy to the practitioners of Judaism and Christianity? Four thousand years ago, various groups from small tribe-wandering nomads would get together and tell stories. These stories were not preserved on stone tombs but in the hearts and memories of the people to whom they belonged. We will read this collection of traditions in a book called Genesis and compare these stories with other texts (written in mud and stone) such as The Epic of Gilgamesh and The Babylonian Creation Epic, which were contemporary with biblical traditions. We will read the great biblical epic of liberation, Exodus, and the oracles of the great Hebrew Prophets of Israel—those reformers, judges, priests, mystics, and poets to whom modern culture owes its grasp of justice. We will trace the social intellectual and political history of the people formed by these traditions until the Roman age.
Christianity and the Roman Empire
Roman culture has traditionally been studied for its capacity to absorb and transform the ideas and beliefs of others, most notably those of the Greeks. This course seeks to examine the interaction between traditional Greco-Roman religious belief or ideology and various religious movements within Judaism from late Hellenistic and Roman times. Judaism of this period was itself complex and diverse, including breakaway groups such as the Essenes, as well as the messianic movement that eventually produced Christianity. The course will consider such developments against the background of Hellenistic Greek and Roman imperial religion and ruler glorification, eventually focusing on the transition of Christianity from its initial setting into an evermore significant component of Greco-Roman culture that diverged increasingly from its Hellenistic Jewish origins. The course will then examine the imperialization of Christianity in the fourth century under Constantine and his successors, concluding with the emergence of the Church as the heir of imperial institutions in the fifth and sixth centuries. Though focusing extensively on historical and religious texts, the course will also examine the evidence of artistic monuments.

Touch, in dogs, is the only other sense that functions fully at birth. Whereas in humans the skin receptors respond to pressure, vibrations, mechanical and thermal stimulation, pain, and many others, dogs experience four primary types of sensations: pressure, temperature, pain, and proprioception (a sense of where one's limbs are).
The main difference between man's and dog's touch is the presence of specialised whiskers (known as vibrissae). Vibrissae are present above the dog's eyes, below his jaws, and on his muzzle. They are sophisticated sensing organs.
Vibrissae are more rigid and embedded much more deeply in the skin than other hairs, and have a greater number of receptor cells at their base. They can detect air currents, subtle vibrations, and objects in the dark. They provide an early warning system for objects that might strike the face or eyes, and probably help direct food and objects towards the mouth.
A dog doesn't need to feel environmental stimuli directly on the skin, because each hair on his body has a receptor (known as mechanoreceptor) nerve at its base. The nose pad has high concentrations of sensory nerves, which are also found at the base of the vibrissae. The pads of the feet have sensory nerves which respond to vibration.
Besides containing the nerves associated with feeling, the skin acts as the body's first line of defense against bacteria and toxins, helps to control moisture loss, and protects the body from extremes of temperature.
Touch is an important form of communication with other dogs and with humans – studies have shown that stroking reduces pulse rate, blood pressure, and states of arousal, especially if carried out by someone whom the dog knows and trusts.
Touch is a protective adaptation that results in feelings of pleasure or discomfort when something stimulates pressure and temperature-sensitive nerve endings. These sensory nerves inform the brain if something feels good or painful, or is too hot or too cold, so that the dog can respond accordingly.

We wanted to do an impromptu podcast that was informal, non-structured, probably NSFW and loosely centered around Green Day. Listen to our first episode where Mikey and I talk about the trilogy, and .... Game Of Thrones for some reason.
Welcome to Dirty Rotten Bastards Episode 1: A Green Day podcast with no rules, no organization, and no decency.
