Product description
The Gaba Receptors, Third Edition, presents a critical appraisal of our current understanding of the molecular, behavioral, biochemical, clinical, and pharmacological properties of GABA receptors. Emphasis is placed on exploring cutting-edge findings on the structureal properties of receptor sites, mechanisms of receptor expression, chemical agents that differentiate receptor subtypes, and phenotypes displayed by GABA receptor null mice. Chapters in this updated and expanded edition examine such topics as GABA receptor subypes, trafficking postsynaptic GABA receptors, GABA receptor mutations associated with idiopathic generalized epilepsies and febrile seizures, and GABA receptors as a potential therapeutic target.

My family loves homemade breakfast sausage: patties, links, in gravy… it doesn't really matter. But that pork sausage from the grocery store? It's not entirely pork! Other ingredients include: mechanically separated meat (also known as "white slime", the cousin of the "pink slime" that made headlines last year); sodium lactate (salt made from lactic acid); sodium phosphates (another salt that's been associated with permanent kidney damage); dextrose (a form of sugar); sugar (more sugar); MSG (another salt); sodium diacetate (still more salt!); and BHT (a preservative primarily used in cosmetics).
Does that sound like a good start to the day? I didn't think so, either, and that's how I came up with this recipe. It's so simple that there are only three ingredients: pork, sea salt and spices. Plus, it's easy to make!
- 16 ounces ground pork
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon rubbed sage
- ¼ teaspon dried thyme
- ¼ teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional for those who like their sausage very spicy)
- Combine all ingredients together. Mix thoroughly.
- Shape into thin patties or stuff into casings.
- Fry on medium heat until browned all over. (To reduce fat and calories, bake on a broiling pan at 375F until done.)
Now, I've made this both as sausage patties and links. Patties are easiest: you shape them as you would hamburgers, just thinner. (An easy way to get uniform patties is to cut both ends off a tuna can. Put a ball of meat in the can and, using one of the lids you cut off, press down. Voila, thin and perfectly shaped patties!)
To do sausage links, you'll need a sausage stuffer and casings. I use the stuffer attachment for my Kitchen-Aid Stand Mixer*. It's a lot more work but, wow, it sure impresses guests! ("You MADE this sausage? Seriously!") Either way, I make sausage in bulk, usually 8-10 pounds at a time, and pre-cook at least half of that before stashing all of it in the freezer.
Even if you'd rather make your own a pound at a time, this recipe will give you all the taste you're used to from the commercial stuff, minus the white slime, scary preservatives, and shockingly vast amounts of salt.
Of course, if you'd rather make sausage gravy you can skip the part about shaping it into patties. Simply crumble it in to frying pan and brown as you would ground beef, then follow your favorite sausage gravy recipe.

FOXBORO -- As late Sunday night gave way to early Monday morning in a raucous Patriots locker room, Devin McCourty had a simple explanation as to how the Patriots pulled off the most ridiculous comeback win in recent franchise history.
"Someone forgot to push the button at Buffalo Wild Wings, I guess," the defensive back said with a smile following the Patriots' 34-31 overtime win over the Broncos at a frozen Gillette Stadium.
Why not? It's a good a reason as any. How else would you explain what happened? In a game that was half-action movie and half-theme park thrill ride, the Patriots dug themselves a 24-0 halftime deficit but came roaring back with 31 consecutive points in the third and into the fourth quarters. After a late rally from Peyton Manning tied it at the end of regulation, New England won it with just over three minutes left in overtime when a muffed punt set up Stephen Gostkowski's game-winner, a 31-yarder that set a frigid Gillette Stadium into a frenzy.
"One minute we were down 24-0, the next minute we were kicking the game-winning field goal," said cornerback Aqib Talib. "It went fast, man."
It wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing game you'd ever want to see -- there were an astounding 11 fumbles, with six of them lost -- but it was an unforgettable classic, in every sense of the word. Two elite performances from the Hall of Fame quarterbacks, making plays with the game on the line. Standout individual efforts on both sides of the ball (Knowshon Moreno's amazing 224 rushing yards will go down as nothing more than a footnote, and Brandon Spikes was out-of-this-world gutsy). And a series of game-changing plays that can be discussed from now until the start of next season.
Ultimately, the Patriots just made more plays at the right time, and moved to 8-3 on the season. Given everything that has happened to this team over the last eight months, it's remarkable to think that if the Pats can run the table the rest of the way -- not a ridiculous thought, given the fact that their remaining opponents have a combined record of 20-35, with none of them over .500 -- New England could enter the postseason with the No. 1 seed in the AFC.
"It was a good win," said Brady.
Where to start? In Brady-Manning XIV, with the quarterbacks: For New England, Brady ended up going 34-for-50 with 344 yards and three touchdowns. After a miserable start, he had an epic finish, leading his team back from 24 down for one of the great comebacks wins of his career. Julian Edelman had nine catches for 110 yards and two touchdowns. Rob Gronkowski had seven catches for 90 yards and a touchdown, while Shane Vereen added eight catches for 60 yards.
On the other side of the ball, Manning finished 19-for-36 for 150 yards with two touchdowns and a pick. Manning's numbers were especially amazing given the fact that he was working with short fields, and on a windy night Denver decided to lean on the running game more than usual. As a result, Moreno had 37 carries for 224 yards and one touchdown. Wes Welker, in his return to Foxboro, had four catches for 31 yards. He was matched up against Kyle Arrington for much of the night and was a nonfactor for most of the contest.
When it was all done, Manning was asked for his thoughts.
"Disappointed," he replied simply.
According to ESPN Stats & Information, with the comeback, the Patriots became just the second team since 2001 to win a game after trailing by at least 24 points at the end of the first half. (The only other team to win after trailing by that much? Manning led Denver back from a similar deficit last season against San Diego.)
"That was a heck of an effort by our players," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. "I'm really proud of the way they fought back. You spot a team like Denver 24 points … we just took it one play at a time [and] kept fighting all the way through."
It was a resume-building victory for a New England team that displayed mental toughness, resolve and grit in the wake of a difficult situation. There were several outstanding individual performances, particularly on the defensive side of the ball from players who were clearly not at 100 percent. For a unit without Vince Wilfork, Jerod Mayo and Tommy Kelly -- as well as starting safety Steve Gregory, who was out Sunday night -- it was the sort of effort defensive coordinator Matt Patricia could be really proud of, especially against the best passing game in the league. Spikes was limping throughout the game but still managed to make more than his share of plays. Talib was hobbling. And cornerback Alfonzo Dennard gutted his way through the first half before yielding to Logan Ryan.
In the end, on a wild night, it was just enough to outlast the Broncos.
"We'll take it," Talib added.
In addition to Gostkowski's game-winner, here are nine other plays that helped define a classic.
With no score and just over 10 minutes left in the first quarter, the Patriots had done an excellent job maneuvering the ball down the field on their first series of the evening. Brady and New England had gotten to the Denver 40, and were sitting on 2nd and 3. The quarterback handed the ball to Ridley, who was popped at the line of scrimmage by Wesley Woodyard. The ball squirted free, and Von Miller immediately picked it up and ran 60 yards in the other direction for the first score of the night. It was the fourth lost fumble of the season for Ridley, who did not play for the rest of the game. The first of a remarkable 11 fumbles on the evening (three of which were lost by the Patriots), it set the tone for the fumble frenzy. New England struggled with ball security throughout the early going, losing three fumbles on the night. (Ridley, LeGarrette Blount and Brady all lost fumbles in the first half.)
In truth, we could have chosen from any one of Miller's snaps for the night, but it might be best to pick up the one where he sacked Brady and forced a fumble on New England's second drive of the evening. On a 2nd and 10 play at the New England 28, Miller beat left tackle Nate Solder off the edge and took down Brady from behind, knocking the ball free and creating the second forced turnover of the night for the Broncos. This time it was Terrance Knighton who took possession, getting the ball all the way down to the Patriots' 10-yard line before he was tripped up by Logan Mankins. Two plays later, Moreno went in over the right guard for a touchdown to make it 14-0, silencing the sold-out crowd. Miller has made lots of tackles look foolish over the years, and he really humbled Solder and Marcus Cannon on Sunday to the tune of eight tackles (six solo), two sacks for 11 yards, two tackles for loss and three quarterback hits. Ugly stuff.
Following the game, the Patriots all said -- to a man -- that the message coming out of the locker room at halftime down 24 was about stacking success, putting one positive play on top of another. They acknowledged there was no way they were going to get 24 points on one play -- instead, it was about getting back into the game one play at a time. To that point, they started the second half with a nice, sustained drive, an eight-play, 80-yard sequence that was highlighted by three passes and 25 yards through the air to rookie Kenbrell Thompkins, and capped off by a sweet 5-yard floater to Julian Edelman for a touchdown. It was a nifty one-handed play by Edelman to haul it in against Quentin Jammer, but by no means the highlight of his night -- that came on a 43-yard pickup later in the third on a play where two Denver defenders bit on a double move that left him wide open. Ultimately, Edelman again proved himself to be utterly dependable, catching nine balls (on 11 targets) for a game-high 110 yards and two touchdowns. At a time where the Patriots needed something or someone to give them a jump, they got it from Edelman (who also had three punt returns for 39 yards).
The Patriots capped off their finest third quarter of the season with a scoring strike from Brady to Gronkowski, a 6-yard pass with 23 seconds remaining that put the capper on a five-play, 65-yard drive (highlighted by that 43-yard pass play to Edelman) and cut the Denver lead to 24-21. The play started as a patented seam route from the big tight end, who simply stopped a couple of steps into the end zone and posted up a defender like a power forward on the blocks. (The score also provoked one of the most animated displays of emotion this season from the quarterback.) After going the first two quarters with one catch for four yards, Gronkowski had seven catches (on 10 targets) for 90 yards and a touchdown on the night.
By the start of the fourth quarter, despite the fact that Denver was holding a lead, it was clear the momentum had swung back in New England's favor. Manning and the Broncos opened the quarter on their own 22, and after a four-yard pickup, the quarterback dropped back to pass, but appeared momentarily thrown by the sight of a blitzing Kyle Arrington off the edge. Arrington left Welker uncovered for the briefest of moments -- and Manning likely would have preferred to get the pass to Welker, who was close to the first down marker -- but had to get rid of the ball quicker than he would have liked. As a result, he ended up almost dumping it off to Eric Decker. Only problem was, Decker didn't look like he was completely ready for it, and Ryan jumped in front of the ball. Ryan had the pick -- his second of the season -- but the play was set up nicely by the veteran corner Arrington and the fact that he was able to ruffle Manning. The Patriots cashed it in three plays later when Brady hit Edelman for a 14-yarder (a play where Edelman was able to provide all 14 yards after the catch on a brilliant spin move and splash into the end zone for the touchdown), and New England never trailed the rest of the way.
After getting the ball back, the Patriots were on the move again, marching inside Denver territory on their first extended drive of the fourth quarter when Brady found Vereen on an underneath route out of the backfield. But the running back -- who is usually pretty dependable as a pass catcher -- juggled the ball, and Woodyard appeared to come away with it. But the linebacker couldn't maintain the handle, and saw the ball drop to the ground. The Patriots would end up maintaining possession, taking the ball all the way down to the Denver 13-yard line before settling for a 31-yard field goal from Gostkowski. On a night where one key play here or there would end up turning the tide, it represented a huge missed opportunity for the Denver defense.
With the game starting to slip away, Manning led the Broncos on a tough drive late in the fourth. The quarterback helped engineer a 10-play, 80-yard series -- one that included a pair of New England penalties, one a defensive holding call on Aqib Talib and another coming on a defensive pass interference from Rob Ninkovich -- that ended with an 11-yard touchdown pass to Demaryius Thomas in the corner of the end zone to tie the game at 31 with 3:10 remaining, (On the play, Thomas beat Talib to the spot and made a nice grab.) For the Broncos to stem the tide in that situation and respond with a touchdown to tie the game showed terrific mental toughness.
In a decision that no doubt tickled former Lions head coach Marty Mornhinweg (who infamously chose the wind as opposed to the ball at the start of an overtime session 11 years ago Sunday), Belichick decided to kick the ball away and chose to defend with the wind instead of taking the ball. The OT rules have changed since Mornhinweg's infamous decision in 2002, but the move was still a curious one, given the fact that that the Patriots were giving the Denver offense a shot at a touchdown on its first possession, which would have ended the game. But the decision appeared to have paid off, as New England got a stop on its first drive.
With the two teams swinging away at each other in the extra session like punch-drunk fighters -- neither team was able to connect on their first two scoring chances in the extra session -- Ryan Allen dropped back to punt from his own 43-yard line with 3:11 in the extra session. Welker was back, waiting on a return, but defensive back/special teamer Marquice Cole had Denver gunner Tony Carter (a former New England defensive back) caught in an incredibly awkward position and ended up blocking Carter into the ball before Welker could reach it. The ball popped loose, and Nate Ebner was able to recover it. It was an incredibly heads up play by Ebner and the coverage unit to make that sort of play in that kind of situation, allowing the Patriots to get into position for the game-winning field goal by Gostkowski.

Chairy Tales at COLLECT: The International Art Fair for Contemporary Objects
We've been invited to exhibit at COLLECT: The International Art Fair for Contemporary Objects by organisers the Crafts Council. Titled Chairy Tales, the display of 11 chairs celebrates Tord's exploration in chair design starting with the celebrated Rough-and-Ready chair.
Chairy Tales is a presentation during COLLECT 2015 of eleven chairs, which I designed between 1999 and 2015. Each of theses chairs was made for different purposes in different materials, using different techniques. Together as a collection, they form a narrative of the development of my practice and illustrate the diversity of my work.

A New Era of Wonder at Swarovski Kristallwelten
Swarovski Kristallwelten (Swarovski Crystal Worlds), one of Austria's most popular attractions, is celebrating the 120th anniversary of Swarovski and its own 20th anniversary. On April 30, 2015, the wonderful crystalline destination is reopening its gates after an extensive expansion. Artists and designers from all over the world have created an expansive park landscape, with unique installations and new buildings. Furthermore, five of the Chambers of Wonder inside the Giant were also redesigned.
The Chambers of Wonder – designed along the lines of the historical Ambras Castle in Innsbruck – have fascinated the public for 20 years. In 2015, a new era of wonder will begin. As part of this new era of wonder, Studio Tord Boontje has re-designed their romantic winter landscape entitled Silent Light.
At the center of Silent Light is the eponymous, spectacularly sparkling crystal tree by designers Tord Boontje and Alexander McQueen, one of the most photographed objects in Swarovski Crystal Worlds. Its 150,000 sparkling Swarovski crystals, which inspired Tord to create a complete Chamber of Wonder, evoke images of a bone-chillingly cold and yet heartwarmingly romantic winter landscape. Especially in the spring and summer, this miracle world creates a magical contrast to the reality outside the door.

Latest commission at Barts Hospital
We recently completed our latest commission for Vital Arts in the new wing of St Bartholomew's Hospital
We needed to create a permanent treatment of the windows that would provide privacy and at the same time a level of transparency to still enjoy a view from the inside.
The pattern is a mix of 24 different herbs and plants with medicinal qualities: from Arnica to Rosemary and Dandelion to Lavender.
I set out to create a pattern for the windows that would make you feel good about being in the rooms. The herbs add a botanical, floral and healing quality to the space.

[work motivation -- assessment instruments and their relevance for medical care].
ABSTRACT The relevance of work motivation for medical research and healthcare, in particular rehabilitation, is described. Four diagnostic instruments in the German language are introduced which can assess work motivation using a scale system: AVEM, JDS, LMI and FBTM. Their possible application and potential usage for the clinical area are discussed. Apart from the FBTM, none of these instruments can be directly used as a general instrument in a normal medical clinical setting. Finally, a current model for work motivation (compensatory model of work motivation and volition) is presented that contains basis concepts, which are judged as important for future research questions concerning the development of motivation diagnostic instruments.

Article: Psychometric properties of the Occupational Stress and Coping Inventory (AVEM) in a cancer population[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background. Although the Occupational Stress and Coping Inventory (AVEM) questionnaire is used to assess work behaviour during occupation-related oncological rehabilitation, little is known about its psychometric characteristics in cancer patients. Therefore, we analysed the psychometric properties of the AVEM in this group. Material and methods. The AVEM was administered to 477 cancer patients at the beginning of rehabilitation. The AVEM consists of 11 subscales that categorise patients into one of four types of work behaviour. We obtained data from several subgroups and analysed reliability using Cronbach's α. We performed a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of the dimensional structure proposed by the authors of the AVEM. In addition, we analysed the AVEM's predictive validity by examining work-related outcomes one year after the end of rehabilitation (N = 336). Results. Similar to a population-based reference sample, half of the patients exhibited work behaviours that might be problematic in stressful working situations. The AVEM proved to be a reliable instrument, and the CFA supported the factor structure of the AVEM. The analyses of predictive validity suggest that work behaviour and mental health characteristics, that involve the tendency to feel overwhelmed and less motivated at work, might lead to an increased level of occupational stress one year post-rehabilitation. Discussion. The AVEM can be used during rehabilitation to assess the extent to which patients report work behaviours associated with occupational stress and dissatisfaction. Patients who exhibit the tendency to feel overwhelmed and helpless in stressful work situations should be identified early so they can be offered support.Acta oncologica (Stockholm, Sweden) 07/2014; 54(2):1-11.

Purpose: The development of nonradioactive and targeted magnetonanoparticles (MNP) capable of crossing the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and of concentrating in the epileptogenic tissues of acute and chronic animal models of temporal lobe epilepsy to render these tissues visible on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Methods: Nonradioactive alpha methyl tryptophan (AMT) was covalently attached to MNP composed of iron oxide and dextran. A rodent model of temporal lobe epilepsy was prepared by injecting kainic acid into the right hippocampus. AMT-MNP or plain MNP was injected in the tail-vein of two animals during the acute stage 3 days after status epilepticus, and AMT-MNP in five animals during the chronic stage. MRIs were obtained before and after particle injection in all animals. Intracranial EEGs were obtained in all chronic animals after completion of MRI studies.
Results: AMT-MNP crossed the BBB and intraparenchymal uptake was visible on MRI. In the acute condition, AMT-MNP appeared to localize to both hippocampi, whereas plain MNP only identified unilateral, presumably inflammatory, changes. In the chronic condition, AMT-MNP uptake correlated with the occurrence of spontaneous seizures, and the location of uptake appeared to agree with bilateral or unilateral epileptogenicity confirmed by subsequent intracranial EEG.
Discussion: Nonradioactive AMT-MNP can cross the BBB and may accurately localize epileptogenic cerebral regions. The MNP-MRI approach is potentially applicable to the use of any bioactive molecules as ligands for imaging normal and abnormal localized cerebral functions, accurately, safely, and inexpensively.

24366RE: [Clip] Keyboard commands
- Feb 19, 2014
The keyboard is this one:
First, it's lighted, so it's easy to see those seldom used keys when my office is darkened. Second, it syncs to three devices, so I can push one button to switch it from my desktop to my Android phone or tablet. If it's light, the keys don't light up - it senses when the lighted keyboard is needed by ambient light. It also senses when your hand comes near it, and turns the lights on only then, or when a key is pressed (Thanks, cats!)
I never use numeric keypads, and it has always annoyed me that we all have to endure a numeric keypad on the RIGHT side of the keyboard, where my mouse is supposed to sit. Why should everyone have to have a keypad on the right side, when 99.9% of us never use a numeric keypad? I actually wouldn't mind so much if it was on the left, I just don't want to have to pass over it to get to the mouse and back. So, a keyboard sans numeric keypad is a good solution for me, and a smaller keyboard is easier to deal with in an under-desk keyboard tray.
Unfortunately, a two-key combination to get to the beginning or end of the line is no easier than using the mouse, so even though this keyboard does have the function/left/right combo, I probably won't use it except in certain instances. But I love the keyboard, and will take it with my tablet when I expect to need to enter a bunch of text.

I thought I had used small keyboards but obviously not small enough.
They've all had those keys, even if oddly placed.

America isn't the only one celebrating a birthday this weekend. Suicide Squad star Margot Robbie turned 25 this past Thursday, July 2. To celebrate, her cast mates surprised her with a Harley Quinn inspired cake on set. To mark this occasion, a photo has ben shared on the official WBPictures Instagram account.
This is just the latest weird gift to arrive on set. Early on in the production process, Jared Leto, who has gone full-blown method as The Joker, never going out of character, sent Margot Robbie a live rat, which was then passed around set as the official mascot of the Suicide Squad cast. After living with various members of Task Force X, the black rat, named Venustiano, presumably after Mexican Revolution leader José Venustiano Carranza Garza, finally found a home with director Guillermo del Toro. Jared Leto also sent co-star Will Smith, playing Deadshot, a couple of bullets and a dead hog. »

While we wait to see if the Suicide Squad will make a surprise appearance alongside the cast of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice during Warner Bros.' DC panel at Comic-Con next Saturday, actress Margot Robbie has shared a new photo from the set of the supervillain ensemble as she celebrates her 25th birthday with a giant Harley Quinn cake…
Suicide Squad hits theaters on August 5th 2016 and boasts an impressive cast including Will Smith (Focus) as Deadshot, Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club) as The Joker, Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street) as Harley Quinn, Jai Courtney (Terminator Genisys) as Captain Boomerang, Joel Kinnaman (RoboCop) as Rick Flagg, Viola Davis (The Help) as Amanda Waller, Cara Delevingne (Paper Towns) as Enchantress, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Thor: The Dark World) as Killer Croc, Ray Olubowale (Resident Evil: Afterlife) as King Shark, Jay Hernandez (Hostel) as El Diablo, Adam Beach (Flags Of Our Fathers) as Slipknot, »

Adam Beach, who plays Slipknot, says the star-studded comic book epic is so dark that castmembers such as Will Smith and Jared Leto are given access to specialist life coach
The high-profile cast of pioneering supervillain movie Suicide Squad have been given access to an on-set therapist to help them cope with the "torment" of their grim roles, according to one of the film's main players.
David Ayer's film stars Will Smith, Jared Leto, Margot Robbie, Joel Kinnaman, Viola Davis and Cara Delevingne as an assortment of DC Comics baddies sent on an impossible black-ops mission in return for the commutation of their sentences. Adam Beach, who plays Slipknot, told E! Online the film was so dark that Ayer had provided access to therapy during cast members' down time.

What's more important: Quantity or quality? Cara Delevingne is playing Enchantress in "Suicide Squad," a superhero/villain movie based on the DC Comics characters, and she said the few female roles in the movie are the best roles.
Will Smith has arguably the lead role as Deadshot, with Jared Leto as Joker, and Jai Courtney, Joel Kinnaman, Adam Beach, Jay Hernandez, Scott Eastwood, Common, Jim Parrack, and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje picking up other main roles. But Margot Robbie has one of the most anticipated roles as Harley Quinn -- she's front and center in the character photo above -- and Karen Fukuhara is taking on the role of Katana. Viola Davis plays Amanda Waller, who has no superpowers, but she's the head of the agency so that's its own power, even outside the Squad.
Delevingne -- who is everywhere lately -- talked to Empire Magazine about the movie, and superhero films in general. »

Suicide Squad's new Joker endeared himself to co-stars with a dead hog, a live rat and some bullets...
Production continues on the promising Suicide Squad movie, the second of 2016's DC cinematic universe projects (after Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice). David Ayer is directing Suicide Squad, and he's assembled a cast that includes Will Smith, Adam Beach, Margot Robbie, Jared Leto, Jai Courtney, Scott Eastwood, Viola Davis, Common, Joel Kinnaman and Cara Delevingne.
In the early stages of the film's production, Jared Leto - who, of course, is playing The Joker - wasn't on set too much. But according to one of his co-stars, he certainly made his presence felt. Adam Beach, who's taking on the role of Slipknot, said Leto sent some unusual gifts to the cast near the start of the shoot.
"He sent [Margot Robbie] a nice love letter with a black box, with a rat in »

Cara Delevingne thinks most superhero movies are "totally sexist".
The actress - who will appear as Enchantress in David Ayer's Suicide Squad - questioned the outfits that a lot of female superheroes wear.
She told Empire: "There are only three girls in [Suicide Squad] but in my opinion they have the best roles. Generally though, superhero movies are totally sexist.
"Female superheroes are normally naked or in bikinis. No-one would be able to fight like that. Wonder Woman, how the hell does she fight? She would be dead in a minute."
Jared Leto, Margot Robbie, Will Smith and Jai Courtney also feature in the cast of Suicide Squad.
Suicide Squad tells the story of a group of supervillains led on a mission of redemption by soldier Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman).
Delevingne recently insisted that she has no plans to give up modelling despite her blossoming acting career. »

Jared Leto has gotten into his Joker character for the upcoming Suicide Squad movie by sending his co-stars some unusual gifts.
Co-star Adam Beach, who plays supervillain Slipknot, revealed to Entertainment Weekly that among the presents, Leto gave Margot Robbie a live rat.
"He sent her a nice love letter with a black box with a rat in it - a live rat," Beach said. "It was beautiful.
"Then he sent bullets to Will [Smith] with a letter."
Beach continued by recalling that the cast were given a dead hog, which was accompanied with a video message from Leto.
He explained: "Basically, what he said was, 'Guys, I can't be there but I want you to know I'm doing my work as hard as you guys'.
"The video he showed is in character. It blew our minds away. Then we realised that day, this is real."

Is it possible that this is our first look at Slade Wilson, Aka Deathstroke, in David Ayer's Suicide Squad? We haven't actually had any official confirmation that the character will even appear in the movie, but he's strongly rumoured to be who Jim Parrack (True Blood) will be playing. Aside from the big-ass firearm, there's nothing in the pic to suggest that it's Deathstroke, but Ayer wouldn't have any reason to obscure the identity of one of the other Squad members considering we've already had a proper glimpse of 'em - be it officially or otherwise. Whoever it is in the image, he's clearly involved in a scene at a firing range. pic.twitter.com/veCXP309Mf — David Ayer (@DavidAyerMovies) June 17, 2015 Directed by David Ayer from his script, Suicide Squad also stars Will Smith (Deadshot), Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flag), Jared Leto (the Joker), Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Jai Courtney »

All hail Liam Neeson. If anyone should be allowed to rest on his laurels, it's this veteran actor, who has earned accolades for prestige dramas and made a near-seamless transition over to leading-man action hero at this late stage in his career. But in the unexpectedly excellent Run All Night, the star isn't content to play another Taken-style hero with "a very particular set of skills." Instead, he subverts that image, playing former mob assassin Jimmy as a boozy bad seed, put out to pasture by his associates and scorned by all, especially his estranged son, Michael (Joel Kinnaman).
Jimmy is not a good guy, and Neeson never tries to redeem him in our eyes. Here, the actor seems older, sadder, more defeated – his shoulders droop like those of a man sinking into the Earth under the weight of his sins, and his run is ungainly enough »

Ever since 2008's Taken, we haven't seen Oskar Schindler in the same light. Liam Neeson was falling from grace until that smash hit and ever since has been a staple in modern action films including three collaborations with Jaun Collet-Serra (Unknown, Non-Stop), most recently the aptly titled Run All Night. Starting out, it seems all too familar. Neeson plays a father figure with a troubled past. He looks like he'll kill you just as fast as he may invite you to the bar for drinks. Considering his most recent work, it seems he's stuck in an infinite loop of playing badass 60-year olds, but he provides some of his best work of recent memory here, and predispositions soon fade. That's not to say this isn't a typecast -- it is -- but he does completely own his role and add depth to this story about fathers protecting what's theirs and owning up to their faults, »

It's been a while since we've heard anything about Terrence Malick's Knight of Cups, but thanks to The Playlist we've got a new batch of images from the film, which shows off its all-star cast including Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, Cate Blanchett, Imogen Poots, Freida Pinto, Wes Bently and Teresa Palmer; check them out here…

Rick (Bale) is a slave to the Hollywood system. He is addicted to success but simultaneously despairs at the emptiness of his life. He is at home in a world of illusions but seeks real life. Like the tarot card of the title, Rick is easily bored and needs outside stimulation. But the Knight of Cups is also an artist, a romantic and an adventurer.
In Terrence Malick's seventh film a gliding camera once again accompanies a tormented hero on his search for meaning. »

Following on from the latest spy photos featuring Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Will Smith (Deadshot), Jai Courtney (Captain Boomerang), Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flagg), Jay Hernandez (El Diablo) and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Killer Croc) [see here], more images from the set of Suicide Squad have landed online this morning, giving us another look at Jared Leto's Joker, as well as our first glimpse of Common as his as-yet-unrevealed character…
So, who do you think Common is playing? The Tattooed Man? Or are tattoos just par for the course with Suicide Squad?

David Ayer sure does like tats! These new Suicide Squad set images feature Common as yet another inked-up character. Ever since the rapper was cast fans have speculated about who he could be playing, and it looks like it might just be Bronze Tiger - though to be fair, he could really be anyone, that's just the established DC villain he most closely resemble here. There's always the chance he's Tattooed Man (a Green Lantern baddie) of course, but since practically every character in this movie is sporting some body art, it doesn't really single him out! It's probably safe to assume he's not playing John Stewart at any rate! Thoughts? Directed by David Ayer from his script, Suicide Squad also stars Will Smith (Deadshot), Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flag), Jared Leto (the Joker), Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Jai Courtney (Boomerang), Viola Davis (Amanda Waller), Cara Delevingne (Enchantress), Jessie Eisenberg (Lex »

We've already seen the Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice half of Warner Brothers' Las Vegas Licensing Expo presentation, and now the DC villains have taken their share of the spotlight, as the official logo for Suicide Squad has been revealed.
Warner Brothers has obviously taken the, "If it's not broken, don't fix it," approach to the logo, as it's the exact same one used for the New 52 Suicide Squad comics. While the logo isn't terribly exciting, it does confirm that Suicide Squad will be the actual title of the film, as there was some question over whether or not WB would change it or add some kind of subtitle, as the word "Suicide" comes with dark and negative connotations.

Steve's continued exploration of the Las Vegas Licensing Expo has led him to discover a veritable goldmine of marketing material. His latest grab is the first look at the logo from David Ayer's Suicide Squad movie. They're certainly having some fun with the title, though Task Force X better tighten up their marksmanship skills before trying to take on any DC heroes. In addition to the logo, we've also got a few shots of the characters, as outlined below. Warner Bros' anti-hero team-up film stars Jared Leto as the Joker, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Killer Croc, Will Smith as Deadshot, Jai Courney as Captain Boomerang, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag, Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, as well as Jim Parrack, Adam Beach, and Ike Barinholtz.

Texas Depot
Richmond, Va. March 6, 1865
To His Excellency,
Jefferson Davis,
President Conf: States of America,
Richmond Va.
At the suggestion of Col. Lubbock I have the honor to submit for your
perusal a short account of the scenes of prison life.
Your heart has been pained so often by the recitals of the cruelty and
barbarity of our common enemy that I purpose to draw a picture in
brighter colors-not to efface the other, for truth as we know, cannot
be removed-so that we may see in prison surroundings, as in our present
gloomy scenes-"A bow in the cloud."
Soon after my arrival at Point Lookout from Bedloe's Island the plan
of starting a school for the prisoners was suggested. We appointed Mr.
A. Morgan, Superintendent. (Of S. C.)
A parole arriving I was permitted to go to New York City for thirty days.
While there I was enabled by God's blessing to enlist the sympathies
of many persons, (on the score of humanity) to contribute books, stationery,
&c., By my return everything was in working order, and as I kept up
a very large correspondence, Books continued to arrive until we were
able to instruct over a thousand men each day. A very large Sunday
school was organized by Mr. Morgan, and the Library for the camp was
gaining in volumes every day. The teachers were indefatigable in their
exertions, and as the prison rations were very small, and the labors
of the gentlemen so wearing that I determined to see the Prison Com-
missary. God prospered the interview and I was allowed thirty six extra
rations daily one each to the teacher. The prisoners captured at the
Wilderness and Spottsylvania began to arrive in a very destitute con-
The correspondence in connection with the School had brought me in
contact with many persons in New York, Philadelphia Washington,
Baltimore, and other places. I appealed for clothes, and soon hundreds
upon hundreds of suits were sent to be distributed.
The Hospital Wards were increasing in number and as there was no
Chaplain there the Federal Surgeon appointed me Acting Chaplain.
*This document came to Frank E. Vandiver from Miss Fannie Ratchford
of The University of Texas Library, who, in her turn, seems to have re-
ceived it from Dr. K. H. Aynesworth of the Board of Regents of The
University of Texas. In the copy which came to Miss Ratchford the name
of the principal is given as Charles A. Kingley. This letter was printed in
full in Dunbar Rowland (ed.), Jeferson Davis, Constitutionalist, His Let-
ters, Papers and Speeches, VI, 504-508. As Rowland was a careful scholar,
preference has been given here to the Kingland version.
