405 - Being from Another Planet
Chat Comments (58) Best Riffs (205)
I'm watching it now so I can give out spoilers for everyone who's watching it at 9pm CDT today teeheeheee
Is it me, or is Ben murphy not so egregious in this movie as he was in "Riding with Death"? Maybe even a little bit cute in a 70's kind of way... I mean maybe it's the lighting... (he is always shirtless in very dim light), Actually he is often shrouded in very dim light... maybe that is why he looks good to me...?)
But even his acting doesn't seem so bad in this, The movie is really, really bad... I'm jus' talkin' 'bout Murphy.... Maybe I'm just a cock-starved idiot... That MUST be it...
One of the few ep.s I've never seen before...this is the ~only~ time I've ever seen a FilmVenturesInternational movie (see Pod People, Stranded in Space, Cave Dwellers) where the title seq. DID pertain to the movie at hand. Amazing how they did that.....
I remember when this episode aired, we thought it was funny how this mummy moved around. Now when I'm navigating a big office building or walking through the mall I can see how convenient this mobility would be. When wishing for superpowers its easy to shoot for the stars with your flying and superhuman strength. I wish for the ability to hover sanding upright and glide around at the speed of a brisk walk.
Maybe having a mummy turn out to be an alien was a big twist back then but nowadays it's about as cliche as, well, anything.
The mummy has ebola!
No, it looks like a spermatozoa's vacation pictures.
This movie is nowhere near as painful to watch as Castle of Fu Manchu...seriously i hope the guys were joking when they threw that bit in there ;)
crow needs his mummy asap.. bring him his blankie
has ur mummy tucked u in tonight
This movie was a forerunner to History Channel 2's "Ancient Aliens".
If your methods of research are crummy,
You could unleash an alien mummy.
He will chase down the fools
Who stole his magic jewels,
And their flesh will turn greenish and gummy.
I'll never understand during the credits why Tom is insisting this is the worst stinker they had to sit thru, so far. Any movie "starring" Ben Murphy is a huge win!
A guy off in the shadowy distance waving a flashlight around, and NO "NBC MYSTERY MOVIE" RIFF!?! My world no longer makes sense!!!
So after decades of tourist traffic they inexplicably find another mummy in Tut's tomb. Why does a third-rate (at best) California college get to unwrap it AND have it as a permanent installation? Shenanigans I say!
WESCOM...that was the unit I was assigned to Western Command in Hawaii...didn't know they were making cheeszie movies now.
TV's Frank's Shopping Network REALLY took me back 2 when shop-by-tv channels first came out. Where I lived during the summers, we only had antenna TV at the beach LOL and ALL we got was the newly established I guess it was Home Shopping Network? That and some old fisherman named Scrochy who gave us the next day's fishing report real late at nite... God I miss the simple times at the beach. Thank u MST, thank u 4 inspiring as well as MAKING the good memories!!!
Just finished watching this episode... Let me see if I got this right: so an alien crashes on Earth 2000 years ago and unintentionally murders King Tut, then awakens in the 80's and spends the whole movie collecting batteries for his transporter thing. Then, at the end of the film, he just leaves. Awesome, next they'll make a movie about an alien waiting for an intergalactic bus that's late.
The bracelet that Frat Boy #3 gives Teacher Crazy Student Girl at around 51:30 is the ugliest, most ostentatious piece of jewelry I've ever seen.
Cybill's on Sunday on CBS!!
The archeologists examining the space mummy seem pretty amateurish, in my humble opinion.
At least Shari Belafonte is in this film.
Clayton STONEWALL Forester ?!?!
If only Servo knew the horror to come.
Hey, Billy Mummy was in Papillon and that was a damned good movie. …and I liked the Phantom Tollbooth.
"No, this is a very sick individual." … who punched a hole through the bottom of an elevator.
Good episode for the Halloweeny times.
Just take the hand!
I heard "squirrel" too.
Has anyone ever compiled a list of the "twas beauty killed the beast" variations the guys made over the years? There must be 50 of them.
What in Gay Hell is going on behind them, on the view-screen, at 1:09:30?
Tragic Moments figurines. LOVE it when the mads get dark!
Who the hell leaves a 3000 year old mummy alone with a college student?
I have to agree with Crow that it wasn't that bad of a movie. I mean this production was kind of lame, but with some touches here and there, a bigger budget, and some better acting, this would make a great remake. Also, I totally remember that Ridge Racer commercial. I do miss the 90's.
Tom Servo nailed the Jack Palance impersonation to a tee! Loved it! And love Jack Palance. RIP, sir.
Check out the Tom Selleck AT&T commercial at 1:32:00. It only took 20 years to get these things!
The alien was misunderstood! Sure he brought "terror" and hurt/ mudered several innocents for his own selfish goal. Hidden behind those monstrous rags was a sweet...blue...bug-eyed...thing--KILL IT!
I miss old school Comedy Central their current lineup of shows sucks except the Daily Show and the Cobert Report.
First thought: "Oh No! It's Ben Murphy!"
Sam Chew Jr. (as the scenery-chewing administrator featured in the stinger) is also the lead in "Rattlers" as performed by Cinematic Titanic.
Don't x-ray fungus and the enunciating guy at the end. Oh man this movie, whew!
Dr. F.: "And I hope you haven't made plans for dinner, My Little Corn Muffin." :D
While I concur with Tom that this film is awful, I don't think it's quite as bad as Castle of Fu Manchu.
I loved this movie, I thought it was one of the most original stories I have seen made into a movie in a while, this is one I would like to see be re-made with a larger budget.
I love how scared the bots get every time the screen shows the mummy's point of view. It's so cute that noise they make when they're frightened.
I don't get it, was Ben Murphy "The Being From Another Planet" lol . Ben Murphy was also in "Riding With Death' and that was a CBS Night Of The Movie"
28:42 - Servo asks "Where's Geraldo?" Oh Lord I fell over laughing. If you are old enough to remember April 19, 1986, Geraldo Rivera's 2 hour special to open Al Capone's vault... and there was nothing in it! Thank you Kevin!
I wonder if they tried to pitch this movie as "Indiana Jones meets Animal House?" Swing and a miss on that but still it was about on par with Temple of Doom and Delta House…
Tragic Moments, that is soooooo funny!!! This has got to be on my top five invention exchanges. I love it. Plus Joel and the bots come back with the Jack Palance voice imitator, another hit outta the park.
This is one of the episodes where it's hard to keep track of who makes more puns: the riffers or the characters!
So the old, veteran cop obeys the command to shoot by some jackass in a really bad suit? This movie..... ugh.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the old school commercials and Comedy Central that we occasionally get at the end of these archives. I had forgotten how bad Apple's advertising was in the pre-Steve Jobs round 2 era.
Don't worry Suzie, there's not enough money in the budget to have you killed!
'Whaddya lookin at?!?' -Tom Servo [1:10:10]
Ben Murphy here.
I love that at the end Servo looses it and they actually list off almost every movie they've watched. I won't give away the punch line but there's only one movie the Servo feels is as bad as this one... and he is mostly right. I feel Robot Holocaust is worse.... but I'm no Servo, and I am sure I didn't suffer as badly.
Bonus Jim Breuer at the end.
Maybe "bonus" is the wrong word.
I like how the movie acts like the whole "The mummy is an alien" thing is a twist when IT'S IN THE FREAKING TITLE.
Well, the original title of the movie is "Time Walker", maybe you're thinking about that.
I had forgotten the name of it, but I remember seeing this movie at the theater when I was a kid. This is a much better version.
Riffs you quote here will appear randomly in the above.
"I can't, myself, take a quantum leap into the supernatural."
Not in these clothes anyway.
Others in the collection include, He Raises a Hand in Anger, World's Deadest Grandma, and Dad's Liquid Breakfast.
(Co-Ed fleeing mummy falls from roof on to parking lot)
Oh, she missed the pool and that will affect her score.
A fish finder? In a HOSPITAL??!!
Was I Smith or Jones? It's been so long, I can't remember.
Sherry Prophet
"I predict her career will go nowhere"
"He hasn't seen the light of day in over 3000 years."
So he's gonna be crabby.
phay, nnnt ooo airyy bmmmahnnntay rrppprrrr?
I think you're just getting all wrapped up in yourself.
--'cause I was dizzy with lust.
"If you don't find anything, come right back."
But if you do find something, stay there.
Hey! Wrap that thing up! It'll spoil!
I'm watching you!
OK..we're all going to join hands now and try to contact the script.
And, thus, the classic library chase scene comes to a close.
Maybe we should have coffee somewhere...really OLD coffee!
What's all this then?
"I'm sorry, did I startle you?"
No, that's why I wet myself.
(Golem voice) What has its gots in its pocketzes?
Frank, let's pretend I hurt you and move on.
"What's this?"
I have no idea. I'm a complete phony.
Folks, I apologize. I had no control over the content of this film.
Caution: Snow angels in progress.
Oh, he's doing his paint by number clown.
Shaddup , you mug!
That's it, I give up on women. I'm gonna be a priest. "Well, forgive me father for I have sinned."
Okay I'll grant you, 'Castle of Fu Manchu' was just as bad, but we've never done a worse film !
Sarah, what happened?
Figure it out, you look like Bea Arthur.
Stalagmites, stalactites, stalagmites. Did I get that right?
Hey kid, here's a belly chain for ya. Enjoy.
We'll flip for the lady. Tails seems appropriate.
When you find that guy, I wanna be the first one who knows.
You got it.
Unless you're dead.
Pete, Linc, Julie
Super suave love man Ken Melrose
It's probably a hidden compartment.
It's only hidden unless you look.
If we could see that I bet it'd be real scary.
"What are you doing here?"
We're staging a hat party and everyone's invited!
Hey, there's a harp back there!
"I'll get it"
I think she would say, "Why don't you cover those things?"
Oh no! My mom found my stuff.
And the snake knives, Mr. Pretzky...
What are you lookin' at?!
- Is that a contoured sheet?
- It is, now...
♫Michael Goldstein! Michael Goldstein! What a beautiful naaaaaame...♫
Huh-huh... Shiny! Who's Helen?
It's a Fremen!
Oh, no, there's a Steadicam in the boiler room!
Someone's got their finger on a DX-7, here!
Stick to hockey, Wayne!

Smile! Say Mummy Meat!
My Move?
'Jaaanne!' "His Wife!"
I feel like I'm in a Beer Commercial!
Oh! He's at the Airport.
Let's pretend I hurt you and let's move on.

Uhhh! Sportsweeaar Please!!!
Hey Lady! I just want my thing back!

[ ' Like that Fungus' ] ["Among Us!" ]

*Robert Random*
Ah, they picked him out of nowhere.
Isis oh Isis!
Aww, it's an orange-out.
"-Sorry I screwed up your show.
-It's okay." I get paid anyway.
"You know damned well what I'm talking about." I've seen your shower.
"Michael?" Row your boat a shore.
Ditch the coffin, we got what we need.
- Shut up.
It's Dali's 'Last Supper'...
Eat At Joe's... Eat At Joe's...
- They're paying $8000 a year for THIS?
- It's not tuition, it's a cover charge!
Character: Who told you, some hustler?
Crow: I don't read Hustler!
Why did they send a mummy to Pine City VoTech?
Oh great, the plague!
Jan Brady like you've never seen her before.
Quick, down a completely different hallway.
I feel like I'm in a beer commercial.
Ah, and here's my zygote in Ft. Lauderdale.
*Professor puts his hands on his face*
Oedipus! No!
*Tom makes squishing sounds*
Looks like ABBA in college.
Who is humming??
It's just Dave Lennox he's there to change the filter
Then go down to the shower and take a picture of my girlfriend
He flushed!
I forgot to mention that I LOVE real brain!
It's so warm...like me
Meanwhile in Friday the 13th...
Last tomb on the left!
So what you're saying is that this movie is going directly to...radio.
Oh, no! There's a steady cam in the boiler room!
Nice snake.
Thanks. I just threw it on.
Dont tell mom the babysitter's hot!!!
Dear aunt Nefertiti....thanks for the socks?
"You've been sleeping all day. You must have been really tired" Ah, you're brilliant.

she can't stand the sight of pudding
"He's got an electric dance belt on!"
"Wasn't Robert Redford in that?"
"Oh, don't worry, Susie. There's not enough money in the budget to have ya' killed!"
"Aaahhh... 'Two scoops of raisins...' my ass!"
"Hey, all right. I got Hardbodies and Mannequin II!"
"Y'know, this looks more like spermazoa vacation pictures."
"Please, Honey. Not while I'm decoupaging."
"Oh, not my color. I'm definitely a Fall."
" 'Bless... This... Mess' ?!"
Turns out the mummy's a lame styrofoam-headed alien.
Bots (Scared & upset while viewing creepy "mummy vision" camera pans on boiler room pipes) Crow: Ooh! No more green pipes & things!! Joel: U guys, there's nothing 2 b afraid of; it's just This Old House, okay?
You know, I've got the weirdest feeling someone is touching a girl right now.
And get me a pound of goat cheese!
Moses supposes his toeses are roses.
It's that thing again! The thing that's been driving the plot nowhere!
Go get Ken Melrose. He'll touch anything!

Looks kinda like a van mural...
I pity the dirt that gets in my way.
Honk if you hate this film!
Here at DeVry you can work on computers from 1978!
Dear aunt Nefertiti, thanks for the socks ..?
Be scared. Be very ascared!
I'm Leonard Nimoy in search of...my career.
"Ah! An asparagus monster!"
Folks, I apologize... I had no control over the content of this film.
"Did I startle you?" No- that's why I wet myself...
Oh! She missed the pool, and that will affect her score.
-Trumpy you can do magic things
do we have ten pound balls?
Being from another planet, I didn't have much to do with this film.
Did you check out Ludlum's "Mingmang Patingtang"?
Oh, it's the Ludlum Library. There's "The Horshack Conspiracy".
It's not easy seeing green!
Jim Henson's Baby Babies.
"It wasn't a mummy, it was a daddy." Ugh, booz, free me!
And I still haven't figured out how many licks it takes to get to the tootsie center.
"And nobody has to know about it. Not the police, not the press." Certainly not the audience.
Finally, the Warren Commission files!
Boy, Trapper John M.D. lives next to Medical Center.

Carbon Reduction through Energy Efficiency Isn't Just a One-Man Show
Though ambitious carbon emission reduction goals are not exactly anything new, over the course of this past year there have been some exciting developments in pushing the envelope on carbon standards at the national and local levels in the United States.[read more]
Procuring Clean Energy in the Developing World: The Appeal of Auctions and the Way Forward
Meeting rising energy demand with cost-effective new generation capacity is a critical challenge facing most developing countries. As policymakers and regulators seek out support schemes for clean energy, one procurement mechanism seems to lead the charge – the renewable energy auction.[read more]
Maryland's SREC Market: Nothing to be Crabby About
Despite consistently ranking in the top 15 state solar markets, Maryland flies under the radar for developers. Due to moderate electricity prices and thin margins, the Maryland market doesn't command the same level of attention as do the frothy markets of California, Massachusetts, or New Jersey.[read more]
North Carolina Opts for Delayed Sunset of the State Tax Credit
Last week, the North Carolina legislature passed a bill offering a soft landing to the official end date for the state's 35% state tax credit. While the tax credit cliff is scheduled for December 31, 2015, new legislation will extend eligibility for projects that are "significantly complete" but not operational by the end of 2015.[read more]
Nuance or Nuisance: the Challenge of State-Level Incentives in Renewable Energy Development
A market closes, a market opens – such are the sharp ups and downs currently inherent to renewables development. Incentives in the US are currently decided at the state level. This adds challenge to an already inherently complex business, and more should be done to create parallel structures across state lines.[read more]
Increasing Private Sector Involvement in the International Climate Negotiations
Simultaneous support and action from both business and government is difficult, especially with climate change and clean energy. The reality is often a chicken or the egg question of whether policy should come first and give business the confidence to invest, or whether business interests shape the policy.[read more]
Embracing our Best Shot at a Low-Carbon Future

(Don't) Drill, Baby, Drill: Economic, Environmental, and Military Conflicts Associated with Offshore Drilling
In 2008, a 25-year congressional prohibition on offshore drilling off the Atlantic coast ended, opening it up to energy exploration and poising it to be the next energy frontier. The intersection of increased energy prices and rising demand made drilling in this area an appealing endeavor.[read more]
Jobs: The Number One Word Clean Energy Advocates Should Be Using
Ads from the oil and gas industry with job-centric taglines are popping up all over D.C., implying that while renewables may have feel-good qualities, fossil fuels still power the economy and provide jobs. There's just one problem: Clean energy does provide a lot of jobs, with the potential for many more.[read more]
Know Your Audience: Energy Efficiency and the Small Commercial Class
Investment in energy efficiency saves money, enhances productivity and competitiveness. Yet energy efficiency is underutilized by the small commercial sector. A survey found that 52 percent of small commercial businesses see cash flow as the primary barrier to investing in energy efficiency.[read more]
Why Liberals Shouldn't Be Afraid of Big Money
Liberals everywhere: It is time for a different kind of climate legislation. For the US energy economy to power itself, it must develop new relationships with Wall Street. There are good reasons why anyone interested in avoiding climate disaster needs to be open to this idea.[read more]

Why Venture Capitalists are No Longer Seeing 'Green': And How the Sector Will Overcome
As a sector, cleantech did not prove to be a profitable investment for many of the venture capitalists who were zealous about the idea of a triple bottom line underlying their investments.

"In that case I do wish that the EPA would take Global Warming seriously. A 30% improvement, by 2030, in just the coal burning CO2 emissions is far too little.

A place for educators to find thought-provoking news, conversation and support for those who care about diversity, equal opportunity and respect for differences in schools
Stereotypes Rampant in Single-sex Classrooms
With all the recent news about single-sex classrooms, it would appear that the idea is gaining traction. Not true.
Supporting Cross-Cultural Friendships
When I was growing up, most of my friends were a lot like me. We looked a lot alike, lived in similar neighborhoods and rarely questioned the racial and cultural uniformity that was the fabric of our lives. This isn't to say that my high school lacked all diversity. Like many high schools, our student population was fairly segregated, and I stuck with the group where I felt most comfortable. It wasn't until college that I experienced some authentic diversity, developed friendships with people who were different from me, and began to recognize how isolated I had been in high school.
Mapping Out a Get-to-Know-You Project
One of the simplest ways to foster compassion and understanding in our classrooms is to give students opportunities to share stories about their lives. By communicating and listening, students can break down stereotypes and see each other as real people. This can be done through curriculum-related projects such as personal narrative and poetry or as part of a daily class meeting.
Celebrating Leo and the Special Olympics
Every morning, Leo's smile brightens the cafeteria at my elementary school. He hobbles in, holding his teacher's hand. His eyes squint at the bright lights. He squirms at loud noises. And always, he smiles.
Bullying is Not a Team Sport
We are ending this school year mid-sentence in an ongoing conversation about what it means to live together in a learning community and treat each other with basic respect and human decency.
Size Bias Does Not Justify Bullying
A war on obesity is raging. Everyone from Jillian Michaels to Michelle Obama is calling for all Americans to lose the fat. But as doctors spend millions of dollars on fat-shaming billboards targeting children and studies proving that dieting simply doesn't work, one might ask where does encouragement end and bullying begin?
Beefcake Images Disturb Boys
My eighth-grade girls squealed at the shirtless male movie star photos in a magazine. "Oh my gosh! Check out the abs on this one!"
"Yeah," responded another. "And look at that picture of Taylor Lautner. His face isn't very good looking, but who cares. Look at those muscles!"
This is a typical exchange in my classroom during lunch or before morning meeting. As a teenager, I remember flipping through fashion and celebrity magazines, looking at female models with long legs, luminous skin and perfect hair. They represented what I was supposed to be. Knowing how far away I was from looking like them definitely made me feel ugly. But the magazines were also telling me what kind of guy I should find attractive. Apparently, not much has changed in teenage popular culture.
Never Lose the Feeling of Being a Student
I was anxious, opening the cover page of my literacy project. I paused and took a deep breath and held it.
"Excellent job," my professor's comments began. "I especially liked your focus on how to increase the literacy of boys not interested in reading." I beamed. I'd worked hard on this project. Although her words were few—about 20—it was rewarding to be praised. I felt recognized, validated.

If Rick put up 40 win seasons regularly, it would have been one of the best contracts ever. But he signed after several injuries and his unorthidox style which combined with massive weight training could only lead to disaster (which I said years ago and knew he'd be an injured gimp if you go back to my posts around 2002).
But yeah, if Rick won 40 games instead of sitting 80, he'd be a great contract. And going back to 2002, six goalie coaches could not get him to play smarter. No trainer could convince him to rest long enough. So....stupid contract for Meathead. How do you say "Meathead" in German?
Meathead seems a bit harsh. Again, not sure what the guy has done except get hurt and not retire. Hard to trash him for that. I know some people called him cocky, but from what I remember most of the cockiness was post-draft, when he was 18-20 years old.
As far as everything else, I would blame the front office/ownership for the whole situation. I suppose they could have changed his style a bit, but didn't they draft him because they thought he could "revolutionize" the goaltender position? What would be the point of sticking an anchor on him considering his goaltending qualities themselves were never good enough alone to put him in the elite, Henrik Lundqvist category. He was a solid goalie pre-injury, but his goaltending abilities + his ability to play the puck is what could have made him great. IMO, it would have gone against everything(trading away Luongo and drafting Ricky instead of Gaborik/Heatley) had they tried to eliminate or even limit that aspect of his game.
Regardless, the contract never made sense. Even if he had no injury history, it wouldn't have made sense. Even if he was Lundqvist, it wouldn't have made sense. 15-year contracts really shouldn't even be discussed, much less offered.

The Leader in Virtualization, Storage & Disaster Recovery.
Varrow's mission is to provide world-class information solutions and unparalleled service that enable our clients to rapidly and efficiently achieve their goals and objectives.
This is a poem that we put together to describe our culture and values at Varrow. We thought this rhyming pattern was more fun to read than a list of statements. We read this out-loud together as a group during new hire training and other group events like our annual kick-off. It seems kinda weird but it is a good reminder of who we are and who we strive to be. We start the poem off with a personal leadership affirmation because we think all employees must believe and think of themselves as leaders and take personal responsibility for helping us build and maintain a great company with a great culture. Enjoy :)
- Jeremiah Cook, CEO
I am a Great Leader
On a Wonderful Team!
We do Great Work
We dream Big Dreams!
We take pride in our work
But we must remain humble
We try new things
It's ok if we stumble
We work with passion
We work with care
We take strange pleasure
As we pull out our hair
This is our tribe
We must show our true face
I will not be afraid
To state a good case
We will build strong bonds
Through work and through play
We are refreshingly honest
We will do what we say
We are quick to respond
We treat theirs like its ours
The little things are important
Don't forget to bring flowers
We will embrace change
Adapters earn their reward
That's how we beat 'em
Look forward , move forward
It's not easy being cheesy
And it's not easy building something great
But it's kinda easy and not so cheesy
To wear a smile as we create

... last days there, we were at the pool and there was a "fouling". We weren't' sure what happened at first but everyone was asked to leave the pool because they needed to hyper chlorinate. We assumed one of the small children had pooped in the pool, but in fact someone had vomited. So, now "fouling" is used all the time as a joke.
We had a lovely week on our family vacation!

Little Otik 2000 | Movie Watchlist
For sheer perversity, Jan Svankmajer's CONSPIRATORS OF PLEASURE is a tough act to follow. But the renowned animator did it with this wickedly funny, deeply disturbing, live-action retelling of an old Czech folktale. Bozena Horakova (Veronika Zilková) is depressed. She and her husband Karel Horak (Jan Hartl) have been desperately trying to have a baby, but to no avail. One weekend at their country house, Karel tries to cheer up his wife with a little joke: He takes the knotty stump of a dead tree he's uprooted from their garden, trims its roots to form arms and legs, slaps on a coat of varnish and offers it to Bozena. Bozena is ecstatic. Believing it to be a real baby, she plunges little "Otik" into a bassinet, powders his bottom and dresses him in booties and a bonnet. She then stages an elaborate fake pregnancy to explain Otik's sudden appearance to the neighbors back home. But when the happy day finally arrives, Karel is horrified to find the baby actually suckling at his wife's breast. Like Pinocchio, the stump has somehow come to life, and it's hungry. Worse, its hunger seems impossible to appease: The more Otik is fed, the larger he grows, and when the food doesn't come fast enough, Otik fillets the family cat. When the postman goes missing, the Horaks realize they have a serious problem on their hands. None of this escapes the watchful eye of Alzbetka (Kristina Adamcova), the discomfitingly mature little-girl-next-door who's not only up on sexual dysfunction but on K.J. Erben's folktale, "Otesanek," in which a tree stump adopted by a poor, childless couple grows to monstrous size by eating everything — and everybody — in sight. It's hard to isolate exactly what makes Svankmajer's deliciously bizarre nightmare comedy so horrifying. The film simultaneously touches on so many fears: from male discomfort over where babies come from (Karel has surreal visions of floating newborns being found in watermelons and scooped out of a baby monger's tank like carp) to anxieties about unnatural creation and the terror of an all-consuming baby that literally feeds off its mother. Perhaps it's simply the realization that we're all slaves to our desires: Like the obsessed fetishists of CONSPIRATORS, Svankmajer's characters are consumed by their own appetites, rapacious cravings for sex, alcohol and, most revoltingly, food. Gooey porridges and slimy stews are slurped with such revolting abandon that Otik's voracious flesh eating pales in comparison.

'You're a graduate Chemist. Can't you just work it out?'
Hi I'm MC. I'm a Chemistry Masters student studying at Cardiff University and an all round gothic geek. I am an unashamed die-hard Woodie and superhero fangirl with more than a slight vampire obsession. I write, I beta, and I have enormous fun whilst I'm doing it. :D
Location: Wales, UK. It's official; my University department IS Sherlock's mind palace. And that is why I live here. :D
Most Fanciable Fictional Character: Lestat de Lioncourt, and then Richard Grayson.
Currently Betaing for CornerOfYourEye and HelenaVonValsa: Check out the stories by these two. They really are fabulous pieces of writing, and I mean that both as a reader and a Beta.

Anything with decent vampires; ie. not Twilight, True Blood and The Vampire Diaries.

Vampire Chronicles: Lestat & Louis, Marius & Armand.
Dorian Gray: Dorian & Basil, Dorian & Toby.
Blood Ties: Vicki & Henry.
Sherlock: Sherlock & Molly (Sherlolly), Sherlock & Janine (Sherline? It's what I call them anyway.).
Nightwing: Dick Grayson with pretty much anyone. He's my favorite manwhore. ;)
Avengers: Loki & Tony Stark (IronFrost). Don't ask; it's what happens when people read FanFiction after midnight.
Top Fan Beliefs
1) Harry died and came back in Deathly Hallows, no matter what JKR says.
2) Jack does love Ianto, but has good reasons for why he can't say it (ahem, whilst Ianto is alive and Jack is immortal).
3) Harry should have killed Voldemort, but JKR didn't have the guts to make him do it.
4) Lestat and Louis are made for each other; it's like naughty and nice.
5) Gwen Cooper is a whore.
6) Sirius Black is awesome. Dolores Umbridge, on the other hand, deserves a slap for being more evil than Voldemort.
7) The writers may create and kill off characters as they please, but it's the fans that make the show.
8) Nightwing is the ultimate troll. Loki comes in as a close second.
9) Loki isn't redeemable, but we should love him anyway.
10) Our obsessions define us.
11) Always meet your heroes. They are so much better looking in person.
12) Antiheroes are the best kind of heroes.
13) You don't have to see a picture of a character in order to crush on them.

Technology Associate Intern InterviewNo OfferPositive ExperienceDifficult Interview
I applied online. The process took a week – interviewed at Bridgewater Associates in March 2014.
Took about a week.
Filled out a coding challenge for the company and passed most of the tests (did the harder portion better than the easier one). A recruiter contacted me a few days later to schedule an interview.
Half was personality/fit, the other half was "technical" in the abstract sense; development procedure too.
Interview Questions
- How would you make an elevator better? Asked me to essentially start from scratch and develop an algorithm/program to do this. They helped me through this in places, but I guess I didn't run with the decision-making as thoroughly as they wanted me to. Answer Question

Technology Associate Intern InterviewNo OfferNegative ExperienceDifficult Interview
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days – interviewed at Bridgewater Associates (Cambridge, MA) in October 2013.
I was initially contacted via a cold email by one of their recruiters, who encouraged me to apply for their summer position in their Technology Associates (TA) program. I submitted my resume, applied online, and then had an in-person interview when they came to my campus. I made it to the final round (top 6-10, I think) but ultimately didn't get an offer.
They asked about tech details (typical algorithmic questions, nothing overly intense, all pretty interesting), cultural fit, and personality/discussion assessment. For personality/discussion assessment you just debate/discuss a topic with the interviewers (tip: I thought it was a debate, it turns out they just wanted it to be a discussion, so I was far too debate-like and argumentative). Cultural fit was a bit odd, definitely have some familiarity with Ray Dalio's "Principles" guide, they asked some very probing questions about my self development. This was the main place where BS does not fly AT ALL - when they ask you about your biggest flaw, they'll keep probing until they get to the issue you're most afraid of, and then analyze what you're doing to fix it.
Interview Questions
- The tech side was relatively straightforward, but the cultural fit questions on "What's your biggest flaw?" followed up with "Do you think what you're doing is really fixing that flaw, or just addressing the surface level?" Answer Question

Food is Good, Service is Rude, Rude, Rudeby amtzamtz on 07/07/2009
Co-workers and I used to go here on a weekly basis. Last year we ran into a problem of roaches. Not on only one occasion, but three. We stopped going. We decided to give it another try a year later and the place has really cleaned up! Fresh paint, new tv's, and new decor. Looks Great! Went there today w/ co-workers. Had left over food. Return to salsa bar to get some "taco"cups to go. Cashier came up to me in front of other patrons and stated, " You cannot take that. We charge for salsa to go!" I advised I had leftovers, but she did not care.
Fresh Taste Aboundsby jlfloyd on 09/15/2008
I haven't eaten at this restaurant in many years and thought I would try it again since I moved back to the old neighborhood. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was still clean and had maintained it's high standard in quality and service. Everything I have tried there is wonderful, the salsa has a clean tomato flavor with that wonderful cilantro. My husband's palate runs more towards the Taco ???? chains but he loves their Steak Burritos and Gorditas and has just asked me to place our lunch order @ ZUZU's. I highly recommend you try it, you will not be disappointed. A big 5 star rating in my book. Good food for a good price!

Had a great experience with Landmark Computers. Service was top-notch and I like the the helpfulness. Pricing is a little (and I mean a little) more than some other competitors but the service means more to me.They'll be seeing me and my friends again.

Well done, great shopping experience with a wide range to choose from.

Excellent and timely service, kept me in the loop of my order being processed every step of the way.

I have dealt with this dealer for a long time and have ordered lots of items from them(mostly high-end products) and I must say it is the best I have experienced. The owner even supplies his private contact number if by chance you have inquiries. If I need anything that has to do with computers/electronics this is my first and last stop.Thanks for excellent service and then also excellent pricing and delivery which is always top notch
By Shooter
I have not received my order as of yet, as expected arrival is 2 days time ;) Andy helped greatly, always willing to find what you/I want/ed. I tried placing the same order with another on-line e-tailer, after 14 days waiting & countless attempts on my behalf to change stock items due to no stock at suppliers, I turned to Landmark via recommendation from some chaps at www.tomshardware.com.Lets hope they can pull it all-together and become my next place to order all my high spec PC parts from :)
By D.T
Fastest delivery ever. The package arrived about 20mins ago in Grahamstown, which isn't exactly a major center, and it shipped at like 3:30pm yesterday.Nuf said.
By Uvedale
Cannot comment on delivery just yet as it only shipped today. I don't generally write testimonials, but Landmark well and truly deserve it!The website is quite well organized and functional, but the best feature is the "Live Help" chat that allows you to speak to Andy directly.Andy is friendly, helpful, and perhaps most importantly, gets things done on the spot. There is no I'll get back to you (which generally never happens), he gets hold of his suppliers there and then and tells you the situation. He even went through the trouble of letting me change my package's shipping address after he had given it to the couriers. That's impressive .Well done Andy, I'll certainly recommend you to my peers.
By Uvedale
The service I received was top-notch! The prices are the most competitive I have seen, and ordering the items, payment and delivery went off without a hitch; the guy also responds to emails almost immediately. Only took two days for my order to be completed, will definitely buy from them again!
By Occam
I have bought my entire system from Andy , over a period of a few months , some of the components were specially ordered from overseas, as they were not locally available , Landmark PC was the only online shop willing to do so for me at a fair price . I can honestly say I will never use another shop ever again , if like me you value honesty and great service look no further than Landmark PC.
By roan
I have used Landmark 3 times and every time Andy is so friendly, so fast with the email and the prices so low that I saved ALOT. Easy shipping options, user friendly website, online products details very accurate and useful. You cant go wrong with Landmark! Keep it up Landmark!
By Chief
I ordered a graphics card from Landmark Computers just because their website stated they have the card in stock. I could have bought the card cheaper somewhere else but really did not want to wait a week or more for the card. I made full payment within 10 minutes after placing the order(On Sunday), with the hopes of the money being in their bank account in time for them to ship the card Wednesday. To my surprise I got an email from Andy 4 days later stating that they don't have stock of the card and they only expect to have stock mid July... I requested that he send me a list of similar graphic cards which he does have in stock. More than a full day later he replied with one card that he can offer me for a higher price even though the card is a older model than the one I originally ordered. I have now requested a refund as I will rather order the card from companies that do deliver. I hope to get my money back as fast as I paid it into their bank account... In all, a terrible experience for me and I would never make use of this company again.
By Dean
I have bought lots of computer equipment from Andy!His prices is outstanding and his service and back-up even better!

We've been testing the Black & Decker Home Café System Generation II single serve coffee maker over the past week and thought before the full review (you can check out our review of generation I here) we'd give our first impressions.
If you can remember way back to 2004, the first generation Black & Decker Home Café System was nothing short of a disaster. We didn't like the plastic tasting coffee and readers continually write in with issues regarding the overall quality of the machine.
The Black & Decker Home Café System generation II isn't a big leap forward. The machine features a single, double, and special pod holder and has been redesigned as far as look and controls but that's about where it ends and begins. So far we've been largely unimpressed with the coffee maker - the machine is mostly made of plastic including the pod holders, and we've yet to brew a cup of coffee comparable to the Mr. Coffee Home Cafe (which is a very good machine), Senseo, or the more expensive Bunn My Cafe.
Finally - it's here. Grindmaster has announced their new consumer pod brewer the GPOD. This may be the first consumer single serve coffee maker to be a few letters off from an iPod. We'll be getting one of these to test in the Single Serve Coffee.com test kitchen as soon as we can. In the mean time you can read our review of their Commercial OCS Pod Brewer. We really liked the commercial brewer but often found larger pods would not fit as well as a 10 gram and under coffee pod in the brewer over the past several months.
Grindmaster GPOD Consumer Coffee Pod Brewer Features:
At Review of Grindmaster Commercial Brewer
It's been over a year since we tested the original Mr. Coffee Home Cafe. We liked this Home Cafe single serve coffee brewer much better than the Black & Decker Home Cafe. The quality of the Mr. Coffee was a little better and we also felt the coffee it produced was a little better as well.
The new Mr. Coffee Home Cafe Single Serve Coffee Maker - Model AT13 features:
We've been testing this new machine (check out our first impressions) with various coffee pods from Flava Pods, Baronet Coffee Pods, Cool Beans Pod, and of course even the included Folgers pods. Since the machine features 3 pod holders - a single, a double, and a specialty pod holder the range of coffees you can make is quite broad.
We're currently testing both the Mr. Coffee Home Cafe and the Black & Decker Home Cafe second generation coffee makers. We'll have a full review of both coffee makers next week but we thought we'd give you our first impression on opening, priming, and brewing our first cup of coffee with the new Mr. Coffee Home Cafe AT13 single serve coffee brewer.
Just seeing the box gives you a better first impression of the Mr. Coffee Home Cafe. We were excited to see that throughout opening the coffee maker the Home Cafe feel seemed to permeate throughout the box and included accessories. This version of the Mr. Coffee Home Cafe comes with a set of Folgers coffee pods, Cappuccino coffee pods, and a pod holder from Tupperware for loose pods. The Tupperware pod holder inclusion is a little odd given the Folgers pods are individually wrapped.
We then unwrapped the Mr. Coffee Home Cafe single serve coffee maker and our first impression - much better. Simply - a much better feeling and looking brewer. The buttons right away and the little Home Cafe logo on the side has better presentation and the brewer just feels more solid and designed.
Another new arrival to add to the review queue - it's the Senseo Gift Pack edition. This slightly redesigned Senseo features a shorter spout to accomodate travel mugs. Expect a full run down and comparison to our current Senseo in the Single Serve Coffee test kitchen (now almost 1.75 years old!) and our impressions of the Senseo Travel Mug and how the short spout improves the amount of mugs you can fit under your Senseo spout.
At Amazon.com
We've received the new Mr. Coffee Home Cafe and the new Black & Decker Home Cafe to review. We reviewed their earlier releases and weren't as impressed as we were with Senseo and other single serve coffee pod brewers.
The new Black & Decker Home Cafe Generation 2 is a bit more compact and features a total redesign.
We can only hope the quality of the machines has been improved. The first generation models didn't pass the Single Serve Coffee review process with flying colors and several threads and posts continued to point out the quality concerns of this single serve coffee brewer.
Expect a full review in the coming weeks and we'll add these two brewers into our Big Brew Off article.
The ProctorSilex 42114 Single-Serve Pod Coffeemaker features a 500-watt heater and brews an 11-ounce cup of single serve coffee. You can use either ground coffee or pods by using the pod holder or the permanent filter that's included. We like the small footprint and will be getting one of these to review very soon.
Features include:
The staff here at Single Serve Coffee.com have been kicking the tires on the new Aerobie Aeropress for over a month now. Did you notice something about the title of the coffee maker? Yes. The same company that makes the Aerobie flying discs and other fun outdoor products makes the Aeropress. If you've ever thrown an Aerobie you know it really works. The frisbee like rings are much easier to throw than frisbees and go very far. So we had high expectation s for the Aeropress coffee maker from such an ingenious inventive company.
Since this is a little different than other single serve coffee makers we normally review we want to ensure you that it is in fact a single serve coffee maker. Yes - you will need espresso ground coffee from either your grinder or by purchasing some pre-ground coffee from coffee companies like illy but making a cup of Aeropress coffee is very easy and intended to make one cup of perfect coffee or espresso.
Well - it looks like Flavia is in the game and with lots to offer. When you're around for over 10+ years you have 30 flavors at launch and we're sure you can perhaps have it down with regards to a decent machine. Priced at $119.99 at Sharper Image - we'll see what we can do to procure one. We do remember liking the hot chocolate over the coffee but perhaps the coffee has gotten better. Best of all - they come in different colors at launch including Red, Black, Aqua, and others.
Flavia Details:

The Chicago Tribune has an excellent overview of the state of the pod. We love these newspaper articles as they are always so - well - chuck full of recaps we've been doing daily for the past 1.5 years. It's hard to believe so many people are still unaware of the convenience and great coffee single serve coffee can bring them daily - but we'll take more converts any time.
Phil Timberman believes his single-serve coffeemaker is the greatest improvement in brewing since the percolator was invented in 1865. "No more trying to figure out how many beans to grind or measure out. Pop in a pod, hit a button and get a great cup of Joe," the coffee lover said. Rolled out last year, the first generation of single-serve machines makes little more than coffee. The next-generation machines, which are being introduced in time for the holiday season, do a bit more. They claim to make coffee-shop-quality coffee, lattes, cappuccino, hot chocolate and tea. And some of the nation's biggest food and candy companies, including Kraft Foods Inc., Sara Lee Corp., Mars Inc. and Procter & Gamble Co. are staking millions in marketing dollars on a product they hope could emulate the success of bottled water.
