The Time Is . . . Now Reveals Little More Than New Age Rhetoric and Lofty Generalizations
"An eye for an eye means everyone ends up blind." So opens the documentary The Time Is . . . Now, with a tidy example of its problem with logical fallacies: It ignores the fact that most of us have two eyes. Rife with hasty generalizations, tautologies, and false choices, the movie is also tricked out with plenty of visual kitsch, most prominently frame-filling flames reminiscent of The Hunger Games movie poster. Director Vishal Hiraskar wants to "show common people trapped in uncommon situations and how they turn out to be survivors instead of . . . victims." It takes 20 minutes to get to the stories, animated in A Scanner Darkly style. A Kenyan recounts his brother's slaying in a brutal ethnic cleansing and credits God for his strength. Another man improbably survives the 9/11 attack, hiding under his desk appealing to Jesus, on the 81st floor of the World Trade Center. We're meant to believe his faith saved him. Some will treasure this and the film's overall New Thought/New Age sensibility. But, despite much testimony, these and other survivors and accompanying experts reveal precious little about human resilience in the face of calamity. Narrator Clarke Peters provides more than a sonorous voiceover; he is a visible, lordly guide who dutifully indulges Hiraskar's fondness for weighty rhetoric and famous quotations. They left out Erasmus, though: "In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king."

Re: DS9 Forum Welcome Thread: Hello fellow Niners!
This is the best board here. I purchased DS9 on DVD when it was first released at $99 per season! After I completed my set the price eventually dropped to less than half. As a result I have seen the show backwards and forwards three times already. I read the DS9 novels and am disappointed that it isn't continuing with the momentum it once had.
I love the show and Far Beyond the Stars is my favorite and most heart felt episode to me. I was hoping there would be a revival of some type; however Paramount doesn't agree. It's sad to me to think that some Star Trek fans don't get this show. All you have to do is watch and see that it has a lot more depth than the others. This is not to say I don't enjoy NG,Voy and Ent. It's just that I wish it was well written as Deep Space Nine, which I'll always miss terribly.

Transfer money to Israel. Transfer commission was announced on the website as 2%. In reality, the Commission has provided more than 10% - Translation 100 euros cost the 7 819.24 rubles. at the rate of the Central Bank euro 70.6320 rubles.
For fleecing customers already built a whole scheme: EUR calculated as 1.1656 dollars, and the dollar is overvalued - 65.40 € (CB rate was 61.7235 rubles.), Plus $ 3 commission (instead of 2% - $ 2 as stated on the site). In short, MMM rest.

Repeatedly used the system moneyfram. Very high-speed system, which I have no time for yourself. Do not leave any claims and ease of using the system, it is available in so many banks and even gas stations. On the fact that money away, I do not know, I did not think, but because the site has the most intuitive appraiser costs if the price is not happy at any time to opt out and find an alternative.

Service quality will not argue, many offices, but to go to mani graham can, in extreme cases, if there is no other system out there where you will get. A very large percentage of the transfer. Money down the drain.

(Not) getting money in France
I sent money to France, but after a month went by and I still can not get the money. Addresses of the agencies listed on the site where you can get money untrue. I obbegat several agencies (shops ephemeral dubious) where I found excuses such as "we can only send money, but not receive," "we are the new owners and we do not deal monegram system." For other telephone numbers of agencies simply no answer. In the only agency where I was told that you can get the money, there was a technical problem and need to wait 3 weeks! In general, it seems that it is just a solid Arnak! I do not advise you to send money abroad for system Moneygram. Better to pay a large sum for transfer by western union and be sure that you will get your money.
andrey5608 108
Often I use, many online stores are using, which is convenient. Comes quickly, without delay. Interest advise small, very convenient
difficult to obtain
Disgusting service when receiving transfers in Moscow. Branch of Sberbank refuse to serve the issuance of money under various pretexts usually they need for that any particular staff member, which is not always in place. The last time walked 4 branches of the Savings Bank in the street. Rustaveli, everywhere denied. Finally given out, "creaking" only after I took the book of complaints.
Someone heard about the new rules for recipients of transfers?
I got a call from the Ukraine, and told that it is now the beneficiary has to pay tax on the amount received, and, in addition, the currency issue is not - only greens (as I understand it, at the current exchange rate). Someone heard about it? What percentage of this tax?

Ho, Ho, Ho. No but seriously…
Miley Cyrus performed at Jingle Ball over the weekend dressed like a sexy elf from the '80s and since Miley can't get on a stage without backin' dat a*s up, she twerked all over Santa Claus during her performance.
First of all, what? Second of all, no.
She ruined teddy bears and now she's ruined Christmas.
How the Grinch Stole Christmas? More like, How Miley Twerked on Christmas and Ruined It…or whatever.
However, the "Santa" was actually just her best friend/assistant Cheyne Thomas, so like, somehow that makes it almost okay.

The Ag Minute: U.S. Seeks Resolution to Brazil's Retaliation
Tamara Hinton (202) 225-0184
WASHINGTON – This week during The Ag Minute, Ranking Member Frank Lucas highlights his concerns about Brazil's retaliation efforts aimed at U.S. exports, and how this measure will impact American agriculture.
Click here to listen to The Ag Minute. The transcript is below.
"Brazil recently announced measures that would jeopardize future trade relations with the U.S.
"Country officials have threatened to apply tariffs on more than a 100 U.S.-made products, and will do so in 30 days unless Brazil and the U.S. can reach a settlement.
"I join my colleagues in expressing disappointment that the Brazilians have decided to move in this direction. Though, I am fully aware that this is just the next step towards a negotiated settlement.
"This dispute comes from a World Trade Organization ruling when Brazil challenged support programs for U.S. cotton. However, the U.S. made changes to programs in the 2008 farm bill to address some of the concerns. But, we still haven't heard from Brazil on what additional changes are necessary to comply with our WTO commitments.
"I am concerned about how these tariffs would negatively impact American agriculture. One example is the tariff on U.S. wheat, which would triple from 10 percent to 30 percent. This would be a devastating blow to our farmers during a time when they can't afford it.
"Brazil is an important export market for the U.S. It is my hope that Brazil will begin to negotiate. We are ready to have sincere discussions that will put our trade relationship on solid footing once again."
The Ag Minute is Ranking Member Lucas' weekly radio address that is released each Tuesday from the House Agriculture Committee Republicans.

By Johns and Finch. Provide reasons for why or why not.
Personally, I'm usually adverse to buying multiple books which follow the same subject matter - for both variety and monetary reasons. That being said, I'm kinda stoked for Trinity War and I'm pretty sure this new book is going to be closely tied to that. Furthermore, I like Finch's art and I enjoy reading about the lesser-known characters of the DC Universe. I think Johns has a proven record of elevating second-tier characters to first-tier status and I think this book provides some fertile ground where he can do that again.
So in short, I think I'm going to buy this book in the early going. I'll probably follow it through Trinity War, and then reevaluate whether I should keep with it afterwards.
What do you guys think? Are you pumped or not so much?

Technically, this training technique is known as tapering. Elite athletes employ tapering prior to an event to bank their energy, but athletes of all levels can use tapering to allow their systems to gather steam prior to a specific day (or days) when they want to put in the most powerful performance possible.
The most effective tapering technique I've found involves decreasing the volume of exercise but not the intensity. For example, say you normally power-walk at high intensity for an hour a day. Three or four days before a major hike, you would trim your power walk to 45 minutes but still do it at high intensity. The next day you would walk for 30 minutes, and the day after for 15 minutes, both still at high intensity. Then you would take a rest day or two before the hike.
Timing, of course, is key. My colleague Max Testa, M.D., says that ideally, you should taper your exercise volume three days to one week before your event, depending on the type of event you will be doing. If it's an endurance event (a long hike or bike ride, marathon or triathlon), your tapering should start about a week in advance. If you are preparing for a sprint or team sports event, you should start two to three days beforehand.
How long you should taper within the advised range is tied to how quickly you detrain, which is generally mirrored by your trainability. Do you require months to get in shape? Then you likely lose your improvements slowly, too. You should taper over the greatest number of days within the advised range. Or do you see improvement in a matter of days or weeks? This generally means you also detrain quickly. I do, and that means I need to taper my exercise volume over the fewest days within the advised range.
The final step is what elite trainers consider the "art" of exercise-performance science: tinkering. Once Testa gives athletes a tapering range, he advises even the most experienced athletes to experiment within it to discover the ideal number of days they need to taper. Likewise, you will need to try different amounts to discover your ideal tapering time. Do you do your best after four days of tapering or after 12? And what feels best? Some athletes prefer to compete supple and pain-free; others prefer to have some tension in their muscles.
If you taper for a week, say, and do not shine, you have probably tapered too little; you need to adjust your tapering schedule next time. But if you taper for a week and then execute a powerful performance, you are seeing the benefits of the right amount of rest via the technique of tapering.

I'm in. Can't wait.
I'll be there. Really stoked for a nice long set.
Yeah the long set makes it that much better. I thought they were wonderful at the Pomona.
Anyone familiar with Quasi? How are they live?
Quasi is Janet Weiss from Sleater-Kinney, her ex-husband who recorded bass parts for Elliott Smith, and Joanna Bolme who is the bassist for Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks.
Their sound makes sense for Pavement (other than the clear Malkmus connection). They're alright live. I've never seen a headline show of theirs, so I can only judge their opening abilities. I imagine that if the crowd likes them, it'll go over well.
*based upon tedious fact checking.
I really love quasi, but to me anything Janet Weiss touches is gold.
Well shit, I've always liked Sleater-Kinney but I also seem to always overlook them. From the YouTubes I'm watching, Quasi sounds interesting. We'll see how the crowd reacts.
If anyone's trying to go to the Stockton show tomorrow I'll sell my extra for under face, just hit my PM's up

hey guys, it's butt fucking cold up here right now (welcome to our summer) so make sure to bring layers as the fog will likely roll in (but not probably be as cool as when it did for Radiohead).
and, if you want to chill out with some other board dorks, look for Tallguy underneath the soundboard along the stone seats. that's where we're shooting for.
Well Im going to head out in 2 hours. Hopefully I get there in time, I have to stop off at davis first.
I was all in for Stockton, but didn't want to take a vacation day for Berkeley.
Whiskey Sour
2 oz blended whiskey
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 tsp powdered sugar
1 cherry
1/2 slice lemon
Shake blended whiskey, juice of lemon, and powdered sugar with ice and strain into a whiskey sour glass. Decorate with the half-slice of lemon, top with the cherry, and serve.

for anyone in SF that is on the fence about going to see Pavement tonight at the Greek in Berkeley, check Craigslist. complete buyer's market right now. tix are ridiculously cheap.
wow, i saw heaps for $20! i wonder if the Greek is gonna be barren tonite. now i don't feel so bad selling my extra pair a couple weeks ago for $90!
Apparently the Stockton show wasn't very full, either.
*based upon tedious fact checking.
I'm going tonight btw, if you see a Hispanic guy in a Atoms for Peace shirt say hi. It will be my 1st time at the Greek. Is parking hard to find?
