A TV review of IFC's "The Spoils Before Dying" and HBO's "7 Days in Hell."
From the very start, Anna is more in love than Jacob. They meet in a college class in Los Angeles, she leaves a note on his windshield, they start to date, it goes very well, and because she can't bear the thought of separating, she overstays her student visa and doesn't return home to London on schedule. Later, when she tries to return to California, she's nabbed by immigration officials and put in one of those bare white rooms with one table and two chairs.
They will have to be apart — not forever, but for who knows how long? This makes her feel terrible, and we do, too, because they're young and beautiful. "Like Crazy" depicts them in an intelligent, graceful indie style. It's not a clunky rom-com; it's sweeter and more intimate. The question in my mind is, how deeply does he care?
I ask this as a male who brought some cynicism to my viewing. It may be love at first sight and Anna (Felicity Jones) may not have spent a lot of time with Jacob (Anton Yelchin), but she is deep and true and trusts her heart, and she wants to build a nest with this man. Jacob, however, feels sincerely for her, but what's required is loony love, not sincerity. If you're in love like crazy, you do what the situation requires.
Anna can't get into the United States. Jacob can get into London, but he can't move there because, you see, he designs and builds chairs, and his business is in Santa Monica. Say what? You can't design chairs in London? You wouldn't rather live in London with the girl you love than build chairs in Santa Monica? His chairs look ordinary to me. The one we see is a straight chair made of wood. We see him lovingly perfecting a sketch of it. Assemble a dozen second graders, assign them to draw a chair, merge their drawings into one, and they would look like a Jacob Chair. This guy is no Eames.
I discuss these problems because I think they expose a problem. It's easy to identify with Anna, because the character is wonderfully well drawn and acted; Felicity Jones, a rising star, has a face that glows when she smiles, and radiates her love and sense of loss. She reminds me of Helena Bonham Carter. You may recall her as Miranda in Julie Taymor's "The Tempest." She may have only a case of first love, but what love is more urgent and presents a more desperate challenge?
Anton Yelchin has all the tools he needs to play Jacob, but the screenplay doesn't serve him. He doesn't seem to be as involved as Anna. And for a man so involved in the design and crafting of chairs, isn't he on the young side? (He is 22, three years younger than Jones.) There should be a time in your youth when you're free to act impulsively on signals from your heart.
That said, "Like Crazy" is a well-made film. The scenes showing Jacob and Anna falling in love have a freshness, and I learn Doremus handed his actors an outline and together they improvised every scene. Some of the whispered endearments under the sheets are delightful.
It is probably impossible to film a love story in Los Angeles without the lovers running on the beach, usually within sight of Santa Monica pier. I also understand why young lovers in movies inevitably end up on bumper cars and share ice cream cones. There's an impulse in first love to re-enact childish pastimes, as if to start anew and grow up together.
It should be noted that both Jacob and Anna, while separated, have transient affairs. Well, they're not married nor even engaged, and as the song goes, when you're not with the one you love, you love the one you're with. Jacob's affair is more interesting, because it involves his work partner, Sam (Jennifer Lawrence, from "Winter's Bone"). She is too good an actress to ever fit neatly into the slot of the Other Woman; she emerges full-blown and convincing, even in a small role, and if the actors improvised their dialogue, she created some that's very good. Anna hooks up with Simon (Charlie Bewley), her neighbor in London, but their dalliance doesn't have the same weight because she's not really available.
What am I arguing? That the movie requires a happy ending? It's not that it doesn't have one. It's more that the complications over the visa feel like a contrivance to separate them so we can share their loss. Since one of them, Jacob, is free to do something about that, we have two choices here: (1) they mourn sadly on two sides of the ocean, or (2) he bites the bullet, shuts up his shop and moves to London. That would open the way for authentic grown-up challenges, in which they find it can be harder to make sacrifices and live together than it is to suffer narcissistically while apart. As convincing as it is when it begins, "Like Crazy" tilts too much in the direction of a weepie and not enough in the direction of the facts of life.
P.S. Both of these actors are destined to become genuine stars.

New York (41-36) at Los Angeles (43-34)
R.A. Dickey's lengthy run of dominance might have come to an end, but he certainly poses a difficult challenge for the reeling Los Angeles Dodgers.
The knuckleballer looks to bounce back from his worst start in more than a month and help the visiting New York Mets hand the Dodgers a season-high sixth straight loss Friday night.
Dickey (11-1, 2.31 ERA) was coming off consecutive one-hitters and had not allowed an earned run over 44 2-3 innings before he gave up four in the third of Sunday's 6-5 home loss to the New York Yankees. The right-hander did not factor in the decision, but allowed five runs and five hits in six innings to end his six-start winning streak.
"As controllable as the knuckleball has been for me, it's still a very fickle pitch from time to time," Dickey told the Mets' official website.
Dickey, 9-0 with a 1.64 ERA in 12 starts since losing at Atlanta on April 18, hopes to get back on track and earn a major league-leading 12th win Friday.
The 37-year-old veteran is 0-1 with a 2.13 ERA in two career starts against the Dodgers. He allowed two hits in 5 2-3 scoreless innings of a 1-0 loss July 25, 2010, his only previous appearance at Dodger Stadium.
Dickey might be the last pitcher Los Angeles (43-34) wants to see in its current state. Though the Dodgers ended their stretch of 33 straight scoreless innings Thursday, they still suffered their ninth loss in 10 games, falling 3-2 to open this four-game series.
"I did see some jumping and hooting and hollering there (after scoring), but we tried to stay focused," Dodgers catcher Matt Treanor said.
Thursday's defeat, coupled with San Francisco's 5-0 win over Cincinnati, dropped Los Angeles out of first place in the NL West for the first time since April 11. The Dodgers have totaled 15 runs and batted .182 over their last 10 games, and getting out of that rut won't be easy as long as outfielder Andre Ethier remains sidelined with an oblique strain.
"At this point, we're kind of day to day," manager Don Mattingly said. "(Wednesday) I kind of assumed we were going to be in a DL situation, but the docs looked at it and didn't see any swelling, so the news couldn't be any better as far as Andre is concerned."
Scheduled Los Angeles starter Aaron Harang (5-4, 3.81) has posted a 3.24 ERA in his last three starts but is 0-1 during that stretch.
After allowing three runs and a whopping eight walks over 3 2-3 innings of a 3-0 loss at Oakland on June 19, Harang yielded three runs and walked two in six innings Sunday while not factoring in the decision of a 5-3 loss to the Angels.
"There were still times I felt a little off, but I was able to keep the ball down in the zone and execute pitches,' Harang told the Dodgers' official website.
The right-hander is 3-3 with a 6.05 ERA in eight career starts against the Mets.
New York third baseman David Wright is 10 for 18 with four doubles and a homer against Harang. After driving in five runs during Wednesday's 17-1 rout of Chicago, Wright delivered a two-out RBI double in the first inning and homered in the fourth of the series opener to raise his season average to .361.
The Mets (41-36) lead the majors with 167 two-out runs.

- 1/2 cup brandy, preferably Cognac
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1-inch piece vanilla bean
- 4 medium nectarines, halved and pitted
- Stir together brandy and sugar in a skillet large enough to hold the nectarines in a single layer. Add vanilla bean. Place nectarines cut-side down in the skillet and bring to a simmer over low heat. (Be careful working over a gas burner, as the warm brandy is quite flammable.) Cover the pan and simmer the nectarines until just tender when pierced with a skewer, 10 to 15 minutes. Check occasionally to be sure the nectarines are not sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Remove the pan from the heat, uncover and let cool briefly; slip off and discard the nectarine skins if they come away easily. Transfer the nectarines cut-side up to a serving dish and spoon the syrup over the top. Serve warm.

What's KBC?
Our Vision
KiDs Beach Club® desires to provide every 3rd - 6th grade boy and girl a Jesus experience within the culture of his or her public elementary school.
Our Mission
KiDs Beach Club® is an innovative ministry established to mobilize the Church to go outside its walls to do a Beach Club in order to take the message of Christ into the heart of its community.
Our Philosophy
Beach Clubs are high energy, fun filled "kid centered" clubs that meet after school for one hour one day a week for 24 weeks. Beach Clubs incorporate the truth of scripture every time they meet. This allows the character words taught in all elementary schools to be reinforced through the teaching of scripture.
Beach Clubs are "connectors" that link a partnering church with an approved elementary school. KiDs Beach Club® is the over arching organizational umbrella allowing churches to have equal access to elementary schools. To see a list of our partnering churches and schools or to discover the church doing the club at your school click here.
Our Program
Five Elements of a Beach Club:
- Connection Time - As kids make the transition from school into club, they enjoy a snack, fun activity or object lesson and get ready for club. During this time attendance is taken.
- Worship Time - Kids are led in worship where they can move to the music. After sitting all day in school, moving to the music is a welcomed thing!
- Memory Link Time - Each week kids are given bible memorization cards. Fun activities are included to help them learn and memorize these verses each week. As they come and say their verses they are rewarded with sweet treats.
- Bible Connection Time - At this point, kids are sitting and listening to a bible story told through drama, story telling or role play. Making the bible come alive and relevant to their life is the key.
- Make It Stick Time - Fun active games are played to review the lesson. Most kids come simply to play our games. What they end up finding is acceptance, love and a place to belong!
Our Statement of Faith
We believe that man was originally created in the image of God but has fallen through sin, and as a consequence, has separated himself from God, being dead in sin. Man is now essentially and unchangeably unholy apart from divine grace.
We believe that Jesus Christ was sent by God the Father to manifest God to man and to become the Redeemer of a lost world. Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary, lived a sinless life, and voluntarily accepted the Father's will and became the sacrificial Lamb to take away the sins of man through His death on the cross. On the third day after his burial, He rose again and was received into heaven where He now rules over all things and makes intercession for His people.
We believe in the Holy Spirit who indwells each believer at the moment of their conversion and empowers believers to live the Christian life and give service to God.
We believe all who are united to the risen and ascended Christ are members of His Church regardless of denominational affiliation. Having become members one of another, all are under solemn duty to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace, rising above sectarian differences and loving one another with a pure heart.
We believe that the local church is the primary instrument of God in the world today for the purpose of Biblical teaching, corporate worship, encouragement, fellowship, discipleship, evangelism and missions. Christians should make a commitment to a local church where they can be spiritually fed, connect with other ministries, and practice Biblical stewardship.
We believe that Christians are called to walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit, and so living in the power of the Spirit they will not fulfill the desires of the flesh. The flesh with its fallen nature needs to be kept constantly in subjection to Christ, so as not to come forth in our lives and bring dishonor to the Lord.
We believe that after death those who have trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ shall be resurrected and be reunited with Christ in heaven. Those who have not believed in Christ will be separated from God forever.
We are an interdenominational ministry that seeks to serve and cooperate with all segments of the body of Christ. We realize that there is division in the body over the matter of speaking in tongues and the second indwelling of the Holy Spirit after conversion. Our policy is that these practices and teachings should not be a part of any KiDs Beach Club® activity to maintain harmony in the ministry.

Let's just say we met at Wegmans!
So even though these About me sections always sound narcissistic as hell, I guess this is the part where i need to tell you why I'm awesome. Here's some fun facts about me..... well maybe not fun..... but things nonetheless: -My personality is a combination of humor, wit, sarcasm, blunt honesty, intelligence, and kindness. Especially once you get to really know me, I'm pretty awesome company. -I have what I consider to be an "anything goes" sense of humor. I joke about anything and everything, including things that some more uptight people may get offended by. If you're one of those people who finds yourself routinely butthurt, probably best to move on since I almost never try to offend anyone. Life's too short not to spend it laughing or smiling. -I give 100% in my relationships. If you treat me well, I'll treat you better. I'm really big on family and close friends. They're more important to me than anything. -I'm an absolutely incredible cuddler. I'm sure everyone says that, but I even have an award...... that I printed out..... from my computer..... well this is getting awkward...... either way, when we get to that point in our relationship, you won't be disappointed in my snuggle game. -I love hockey and have Sabres season tickets right behind the bench that I try to make it out to for several games during the year, so if you're a hockey fan we'll have alot of fun. -I own my own house in a nice Chili neighborhood and work in the engineering field. I think its a really nice house for someone my age, and while very rewarding is also alot of work. If you're interested in getting to know a funny, successful, and commitment minded guy, I'm sure we'll get along great. So if youre awesome and interested in a relationship, or are a catfish to give me a funny story, I hope to hear from you soon! :-) P.S. I was kidding, please dont catfish me.....

The disregard of the problem with their defense is staggering. There is no way they can beat every team 8-7. Sonner or later they will hit a hot goalie and lose every game 7-1 and look bad doing it.
Their defense made their goaltendeing look worse than the average quality it is, and it isn't just the defenseman, it is the forwards lack of defensive play, at least that is how it was in the playoffs.
The highest scoring team in the league just doesn't need to add scoring unless it is at absolute bargain prices that they cannot refuse.
I would look at trading some of the fine D propsects they have for an established high quality defensive defenseman, someone in the mold of Dan Girardi or Dennis Seidenberg. A leader on defense, a guy who will tell the other D how to play the game that the coach wants them to play at the most effective level.
Scoring is only half the game, they won't be an elite team if they can't keep the puck out of their net.
Ok, there is my rant. I live in Pittsburgh and talk hockey with every Pens fan I can, it is rare for any of them to agree with me, but every once in a while I meet someone
The flaw in your logic is you assume PIT's goal against problems lie solely at the feet of their D. Goals against are a result of a total system. Generally you have #shots against (defense) x SV% (goaltending). They aren't totally independent of each other, but you get the point.
Pens were #4 in shots against last year....#5 the year before that (that's pretty consistent D IMO)
Pens were
#23 in team SV%
....#8 the year before that
I wonder what changed for the worse to cause their problems? I would place that right on the goaltender's mat before anyone else. I wonder if the Pens acquired any top talent goaltender in the offseason that has historically been much better than MAF?

Gallery: Deep Ocean Technology Announces Plans to Build Worldwide Chain...
Water Discus Hotel by Deep Ocean Technology
Dubai is already home to some of the most architecturally stunning, advanced, and excessive buildings in the world, but the Water Discus Hotel is a showstopper – and we just received word that BIG INVEST and Deep Ocean Technology have joined forces with plans to actually build the Water Discus Hotel and possibly duplicate it around the world. Created by Polish firm Deep Ocean Technology, the design called for a pair of sci-fi styled discs, one of which would be positioned 21 stories underwater. Those lucky enough to reserve rooms in the underwater portion of this real life Atlantis would be treated to a fish-eye view of the Persian Gulf.

Product description
The first of Peter Handke's novels to be published in English, "The Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick "is a true modern classic that "portrays the breakdown of a murderer in ways that recall Camus's "The Stranger"" (Richard Locke, "The New York Times). "The self-destruction of a soccer goalie turned construction worker who wanders aimlessly around a stifling Austrian border town after pursuing and then murdering, almost unthinkingly, a female movie cashier is mirrored by his use of direct, sometimes fractured prose that conveys "at its best a seamless blend of lyricism and horror seen in the runes of a disintegrating world" (Bill Marx, "Boston Sunday Globe).

Author information
Peter Handke was born in Griffen, Austria, in 1942. His most recent novel is "Crossing the Sierra de Gredos "(FSG, 2007).
Review quote
"Handke became the "enfant terrible "of the European avant-garde, denouncing all social, psychological and historical categories of experience as species of linguistic fraud. But [he] has aged well and now...is regarded as one of the most important writers in German." --Richard Locke, "The New York Times"
