Plans for a major cross-ownership agreement have been confirmed by Malaysia's two biggest carriers under which low-cost carrier AirAsia's parent Tune Air will take a 20.5% stake in network carrier Malaysia Airlines.
Under the comprehensive collaboration agreement Malaysia Airlines' largest shareholder, Khazanah Nasional, is in turn set to take a 10% stake in AirAsia. It also plans to acquire a 10% stake in long-haul unit AirAsia X.
"Broadly, the collaboration agreement enables MAS, AirAsia and AirAsia X to respectively focus on business segments in which they are capable of developing the most value," Khazanah says in a statement.
It says the early phase of collaboration will focus on "immediate synergy opportunities" which can be realised without significant effect on any party's operations, but the deal envisages more detailed collaboration following completion of a full anti-trust review by all three companies.
MAS chairman Md Nor Yusof said: "We believe that the joint collaboration will help MAS focus on our strengths in our core markets and work towards deriving higher loads and more efficient resource utilisation.
"We will also be able to offer services in engineering and other areas to both AirAsia and AirAsia X. Firefly's resources would be refocused to launch a new regional full service airline operation."
AirAsia chief executive officer and AirAsia X director Tony Fernandes said: "By focusing on core competencies, it will enable both parties to increase product offerings to our respective customers.
"AirAsia and AirAsia X see growth opportunities in new routes and destinations. Our business model requires us to continue to reduce prices in order to increase volumes for consumers in the low-cost travel segment which we can now focus on in a more significant way."
Trading in the two companies' shares had been suspended since yesterday amid speculation of the tie-up.
Malaysia Airlines, which recorded a net profit of $73 million on revenues of $4.24 billion in 2010, operates a mix of 93 aircraft.
Fast-growing AirAsia, which also has stakes in a number of overseas affiliate carriers, recorded profits of $330 million on $1.23 billion revenue last year.

MINNEAPOLIS Ryan Doumit single-handedly beat the Detroit Tigers on Friday night at Target Field.Minnesota's designated hitter drove in all four Twins runs as they topped the visiting Tigers 4-2. In doing so, Minnesota helped shape the race for the American League Central title. Detroit led the Chicago White Sox by two games entering Friday night. The Tigers loss, coupled with Chicago's 3-1 win over Tampa Bay, means that the White Sox now trail Detroit by just one game.They can thank Doumit for that."That's a good team over there, that's a really good team, and they're playing for something," Doumit said of the Tigers. "For us it's exciting to have something to play for and that's to kind of be the spoilers. That's a team that's had our number all year. It was a big game."It was a big game for Doumit, who broke open a scoreless tie in the seventh inning. His two-run home run off Tigers reliever Phil Coke put the Twins up 2-0. Doumit connected on a 2-1 pitch from Coke and sent it to ...

Davis discusses GOP's influence in N.C. LegislaturePublished 9:40pm Friday, August 23, 2013
Beaufort County may not be a part of state Sen. Don Davis' district, but that did not stop him from speaking at Thursday's meeting of the Beaufort County Democratic Women.
Davis said he was there in his capacity as chairman of the 1st Congressional District Democratic Party.
"When I was looking at the 1st Congressional District, proportionally, Beaufort County had the highest voter turnout," Davis said after the meeting.
Davis is in his second term as a state senator. The differences between the two terms have been like night and day, he said.
With a Republican majority in the General Assembly, Davis said, his second term had seen the Senate not extend health-care coverage, reduce unemployment benefits and cut funding for education.
"Now, more than ever, I think it's important to really talk to our friends about voting in the next election," he said.
As evident in the daily protests at the capital, the level of discontent was on the rise, he noted. Davis said the state had more demands on a shrinking budget and reduced resources.
"The biggest thing is I'm not here exclusively focusing on the General Assembly," Davis said. "We have several candidates here running for office, and I just appreciate their willingness to offer themselves in public service."

"Scoop" Independent News
Washington, D.C.
(June 17, NYC). A surprise development occurred at today's hearing in the case of Susan Lindauer versus the United States. A long time associate of the accused, associate professor of computer science at Toronto's York University, Parke Godfrey, Ph.D., testified that Susan Lindauer predicted an attack on the United States in the southern part of Manhattan. According to his testimony, she said that the attack would be very similar to the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. Godfrey said that Lindauer made the prediction on several occasions, one as late as August 2001.
The testimony occurred in a hearing on Lindauer's competence to stand trial held before U.S. District Court Judge Loretta Preska, Southern District of New York, in lower Manhattan. On March 11, 2004, Lindauer was arrested for acting as an "unregistered agent" for the nation of Iraq prior to the U.S. invasion. Prosecutors have delayed the trial for over four years claiming Lindauer was delusional for asserting that she was a U.S. intelligence asset over a period of nine years, including the period covered by the indictment.
This was Lindauer's first real opportunity to argue her competence to stand trial and deny the delusions claimed by court psychiatrists. Lindauer asserts that she had been a U.S. intelligence asset since working on the Lockerbie case and subsequent antiterrorism efforts.
Appearing for the defense, Dr. Godfrey testified under oath that Lindauer told him of her specific concerns about an attack on the… Continue reading

Here we go again. President Bush goes to Israel. He talks to the Israeli Knesset about standing "together against terror and extremism." He cites the example of Osama bin Laden teaching that "the killing of Jews and Americans is one of the biggest duties." The next day, yet another unauthenticated bin Laden tape surfaces. "In a tape marking Israel's 60th anniversary," reported the BBC, "the speaker pledged to continue fighting the Israelis and not give up a 'single inch of Palestine.'" Once again, the lead was followed by what has now become the standard second line, "The tape's authenticity could not be verified." Once again, the timing is interesting. Bin Laden's message was just in time to help President Bush make his point.
The BBC's May 16, 2008 report continues with this: "The last messages attributed to Bin Laden were aired in March." Those messages couldn't be verified either.
The last clear videotape of bin Laden was released to al Jazeera on December 27, 2001. The CIA released one two weeks earlier that they claimed had been shot the month before, but the video is very fuzzy and the purported bin Laden in the tape doesn't altogether look like the bin Laden in authentic photos and videos. A couple of other videos were released in 2004 and 2007, both of which were fuzzy enough to raise questions. The 2007 video looked exactly like the 2004 video, except that the purported bin Laden's beard… Continue reading

Hamilton's carefully honed skill for balancing truth against political comity has elevated him to the status of a Washington Wise Man. In this guest essay, however, Jerry Meldon suggests that attendees at a Tufts conference on the Middle East might want to ask Hamilton about his past compromises with history.
(Plus, at the end of the essay, you may want to read an addendum from reporter Robert Parry on two questions that might be posed to Hamilton about decisions he made in wrapping up the so-called "October Surprise" case):
When former Rep. Lee Hamilton gives the keynote address – entitled "Iraq: Today, Tomorrow, and Beyond" – at a Tufts University symposium on March 27, he may be thankful if he doesn't have to discuss "yesterday."
He probably would prefer not to revisit fateful decisions he made while chairing investigations into Republican dirty work, especially those that let George H.W. Bush off the hook and cleared George W. Bush's path to the White House.
Whenever the Republicans have a touchy national-security scandal to put to rest, their favorite Democratic investigator is Lee Hamilton. Over the years, Hamilton has developed a reputation as a very reasonable fellow who knows how far he can go without ruffling too many important feathers.
As veteran journalist Robert Parry has persuasively argued at Consortiumnews.com, the Bush family name squeaked through the 80's and early 90's essentially mud-free, only because:
–On Christmas Eve 1992, lame-duck President George H.W.… Continue reading
Sources: Air marshals missing from almost all flights
By Drew Griffin, Kathleen Johnston and Todd Schwarzschild
March 26, 2008
(CNN) — Of the 28,000 commercial airline flights that take to the skies on an average day in the United States, fewer than 1 percent are protected by on-board, armed federal air marshals, a nationwide CNN investigation has found.
That means a terrorist or other criminal bent on taking over an aircraft would be confronted by a trained air marshal on as few as 280 daily flights, according to more than a dozen federal air marshals and pilots interviewed by CNN.
The Transportation Security Administration flatly denied those reports.
Greg Alter, assistant special agent in charge of the federal air marshal program, said the 280 number "grossly understates coverage by an order of magnitude" and that the number is "four digits," but he would not elaborate.
In a post on its Web site responding to the CNN story, the TSA said it would not disclose the number of air marshals flying each day so as not to "tip our hand to terrorists." However, it said, "The actual number of flights that air marshals cover is thousands per day." Read the full response
The investigation found low numbers even as the TSA in recent months has conducted tests in which it has been able to smuggle guns and bomb-making materials past airport security screeners.
The air marshal program began in 1970, after a rash of airline hijackings, and it was expanded significantly after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.…Continue reading

"The Commission" by Philip Shenon has performed a great public service, letting the world know that there are good reasons to be suspicious of "The 9/11 Commission Report." The main problem is the fact that the Commission was almost entirely under the control of Philip Zelikow, who was closely connected to the Bush White House. Although my book "Christian Faith and the Truth behind 9/11″ revealed some of the facts about Zelikow that showed him to be one of the worst possible choices for the Commission's executive director, Shenon has revealed even more facts.
It was already known that Zelikow had been on the National Security Council (NSC) with Condoleezza Rice during the administration of the first President Bush; that he wrote a book with her while the Republicans were out of power; that he helped her make the transition from the Clinton to the Bush NSC; and that he wrote at her request the 2002 version of "National Security Strategy of the United States of America" (NSS 2002), which enunciated a new doctrine of preemptive war that was used, in Shenon's words, to "justify a preemptive strike on Iraq."
But now Shenon reveals more: that in applying to Thomas Kean and Lee Hamilton, the co-chairs of the 9/11 Commission, for the position of executive director, Zelikow failed to reveal some of his conflicts of interest, especially his authorship of NSS 2002 and his role on the transition team; that he continued, contrary to his promise,… Continue reading

Sibel Edmonds is the FBI translator turned whistleblower who decided to go public late in 2002 and has been seeking to tell her story about high level corruption in the United States government involving Turkey and Israel. What makes her story particularly compelling is that the corruption relates to the theft and sale of United States defense secrets, most particularly nuclear technology. Sibel obtained her information while translating Turkish language telephone intercepts directed against several Turkish lobbying groups who had contact with senior officials in the Bush Administration, both at the Pentagon and in the State Department. Many of the officials involved are apparently the same neoconservatives who cooked the books to enable the rush to war against Iraq and who are continuing to urge more wars in the Middle East, most notably against Iran and Syria. Several of them are close allies of leading Republican presidential candidate John McCain.
To stop Sibel from telling her story, then Attorney General John Ashcroft subjected her to a state secrets privilege gag order after her appearance on CBS's 60 Minutes in October 2002 that not only forbade her providing details of her employment with FBI but also made the ban retroactive so that anything relating to her case would be considered a state secret. Edmonds had been discouraged by her experience with CBS as her most important points wound up on the cutting room floor. Then came the gag order, which she has observed while working assiduously to get… Continue reading

It was historical and exciting to watch 911 truth being questioned at the Japanese Diet (Parliament) on Jan 10, 2008. For the first time in Japan serious questions were first asked as to the legitimacy of Japans support for the US 'War On Terror'. The proceedings were aired live on NHK TV (Japan Broadcasting Corporation). See the full session below on YouTube, with English subtitles… A transcript can be read here.

Title: "Transcript Of Japanese Parliament's 911 Testimony"
Author: Benjamin Fulford
January 14, 2008
Student Researchers: Kyle Corcoran, Alan Scher, Bill Gibbons, and Elizabeth

Testimony in the Japanese parliament, broadcast live on Japanese television in January 2008, challenged the premise and validity of the Global War on Terror. Parliament member Yukihisa Fujita insisted that an investigation be conducted into the war's origin: the events of 9/11.
In a parliament Defense and Foreign Affairs Committee session held to debate the ethics of renewing Japan's "anti-terror law," which commits Japan to providing logistical support for coalition forces operating in Afghanistan, Fujita opened the session by stating, "I would like to talk about the origin of this war on terrorism, which was the attacks of 9/11, . . . When discussing these anti-terror laws we should ask ourselves, what was 9/11? And what is terrorism?"
Fujita pointed out that, "So far the only thing the government has said is that we think it was caused by al-Qaeda because President Bush told us so.
We have not seen any real proof that it was al-Qaeda." He reminded parliament that twenty-four Japanese citizens were killed on 9/11, yet the mandate of a
criminal investigation by the Japanese government never followed. "This is a crime so surely an investigation needs to be carried out," said Fujita
(Censored 2008, #16).
Fujita went on extensively to ask "about the suspicious information being uncovered and the doubts people worldwide are having about… Continue reading

These explosive and revealing comments about 9/11 have been completely ignored by the Mainstream Media. While talking about the 9/11 commission, 9/11 family member Patty Casazza reveals that FBI translator and whistleblower Sibel Edmonds had incriminating insider information about the 9/11 attacks:
The Government knew… other than the exact moment… they knew the date, and the method of which the attacks were supposed to come … And none of this made it to mainstream media. None of it made it into the Commission.
And yet, again, all of your Representatives, on the day that the Commission book came out, were on their pulpits saying, "What a fabulous job this Commission has done. A real service to this nation." And it was anything but a service. It was a complete fabrication.
Family member Patty Casazza is not alone in her belief that we do not have the whole truth about 9/11 .
The lack of Mainstream news coverage of these views is very apparent. Fox News in a secret memo implicitly admits that there is a problem with the 'official story' of 9/11:
"The so-called 9/11 Commission has already been meeting. In fact, this is its eighth session. The fact that former Clinton and both former and current Bush administration officials are testifying gives it a certain tension, but this is not ' what did he know and when did he know it' stuff. Don't turn this into Watergate."
In fact, a similar… Continue reading

Nathan Janes, a Port Clinton native, painted "With Liberty and Justice for All." He describes the painting as an expression of America's unwillingness to question the findings of the 9/11 Commission Report.
Nathan Janes' painting could create some controversy, but all he wants to do is get to the truth.
Janes, a Port Clinton native, recently completed a painting of a dog wearing a blindfold with "911" and "truth" above and below the dog.
Janes said the painting represents America's inability to question the events surrounding the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.
"It's kind of hard for people to question whether the government lied or had a part in it," he said. "I'm not say anything's a hoax. I'm saying there's information that's not been released or told."
Janes started researching conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11 last summer and said he felt he was just getting more questions and not enough answers.
*"I just felt kind of compelled to because the issue needs to be out there," Janes said. "People might find themselves asking the same questions I'm asking."
Janes, a 1997 graduate of Port Clinton High School, said the "all-seeing eye" and the silhouettes of three B-2 stealth bombers represent the government's power over the people in modern times.
Jeannie Radloff, a retired art teacher at Port Clinton High School, said Janes has always had artistic talent.
"He was an art machine," Radloff said. "He's high energy. He has a… Continue reading
9/11 family member and "Jersey Girl" Patty Casazza has just revealed that whistleblowers told her that — before 9/11 — the government knew the day, the type of attack, and the targets.
Why is this important? Because, previously, whistleblowers such as Sibel Edmonds had given more vague information on the government's foreknowledge. For example, Ms. Edmonds had hinted that the government only knew of a general timeframe for the attacks, and that they had a list of potential targets, on which the World Trade Center was just one of many potential targets.
Casazza further stated that these whistleblowers saw how Sibel Edmonds was being harrassed and gagged, and were fearful that the same thing would happen to them. So they approached the Jersey Girls to ask them to demand the 9/11 Commission subpoena the whistleblowers. The Jersey Girls tried to bring the whistleblowers before the 9/11 Commission, and the Commissioners agreed, but then never let the whistleblowers testify, let alone subpoena them.
Why is this important? Because defenders of the official government story have argued that 9/11 couldn't have been an inside job or else whistleblowers would have come forward. Ms. Casaza confirms what many have said: there are a lot of 9/11… Continue reading

There's a wonderful optical illusion which involves a graphic of a ballerina spinning around on one leg. It's called:
"The Spinning Silhouette Optical Illusion"
This illusion elucidates a very important principle concerning subjective reality, and helps to illustrate a point about the vastly differing views people can hold about events such as 9/11. Some people who look at the spinning figure will first affirm that she is bouncing on her left leg while twirling in a clockwise direction. Others may avow that she is instead bouncing on her right leg and spinning in a counterclockwise direction. Indeed, you can have many people looking at this animated graphic at the same time and not agree as to what is happening. This idea is not really foreign to many people who have made the journey from one belief about 9/11 to its diametrical opposite.
First – we must try and deconstruct the illusion and find out what is going on. When you look at a silhouette of a figure it is not possible to determine if it is facing you, or facing away from you. There is no depth to the figure, it's just an outline – our Left/Right designation of what we visually perceive will set the stage for our belief of what follows. If the human cut-out is interpreted to be facing you then you will assume it is her left foot touching the ground, and vice versa if not. The information is not sufficient when viewing a black and white silhouette, our brain makes an assumption at first glance and then proceeds toward a logical eventuality based upon that assumption.…Continue reading

It has been nearly three years since I wrote a letter to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), about their World Trade Center investigation.[1] Shortly after firing me for writing this letter, my former employer, Underwriters Laboratories (UL), began making some suspicious statements.
These included the following three claims related to the question of whether or not UL performed fire-resistance testing of materials used in the WTC. [2]
One might wonder why UL felt the need to claim that there was "no evidence" if they simply do not do such work. But what is the truth about UL's involvement in testing materials for the WTC, in terms of the fire resistance the buildings required, but apparently did not have according to the government's fire-based "collapse" hypothesis?

Apart from steel column assemblies, there were several other materials used in the WTC towers… Continue reading

Evidence Suggests CIA Purposefully Spiked Investigations
Dear Members of the Press:
A grave miscarriage of justice is afoot. After years being withheld the Administration finally is forced to release the CIA's IG Report on 9/11. While earlier news accounts said the report would be released in early September it was released in the middle of a Congressional recess, in the middle of a Summer break, thus insuring it will not receive the attention it deserves. Worse still is the conclusion in most press reports since its release that bolsters the official narrative, i.e., that all the myriad failures were simply due to 'systemic failure' and/or incompetence.
The circumstantial evidence running contrary to this conclusion is compelling and convincing.
It appears that Al-Hazmi and Al-Mihdhar were being protected by higher ups in the CIA. Respected author Joe Trento has reported that they were working for Saudi Intelligence. Others reported the two were removed from the watchlist two days before 9/11. I don't know if either was the case. It is clear, however, that there was a concerted effort to protect them, similar in some respects to the way authorities in FBI HQ refused to allow Rowley and company in Minnesota to go into Mousaoui's laptop computer or how higher ups prevented Robert Wright in Chicago from going after the money trail of Yassin Al-Kadi (Qadi) who financed the software company Ptech and the terrorist group Hamas and who was later named a "Specially… Continue reading

email@example.com - Republicans in control of the General Assembly wasted little time Monday in moving ahead with key portions of their agenda for this year's legislative session. On opening day, a time normally reserved more for speeches than action, a House committee approved revamped legislation requiring Georgians to show a photo ID at the polls. And a second House panel passed GOP Gov. Sonny Perdue's bill to temporarily cut in half the state sales tax on natural gas and liquid propane, a measure aimed at keeping the lid on heating bills this winter. "We are going to get to work and tackle those issues that are important to voters early in the session,'' said House Majority Leader Jerry Keen, R-St. Simons Island. Not to be outdone, Democrats countered with several initiatives of their own. Lt. Gov. Mark Taylor - a Democrat running for governor this year - unveiled a plan to offer health insurance to all Georgia children. And House Democrats unveiled an agenda dominated by education, health care, open government and economic development. "These are the issues that are really important to the people of Georgia,'' said House Minority Leader DuBose Porter, D-Dublin. In the Senate, President Pro Tem Eric Johnson asked legislators to consider the "tattoo test" when deciding which bills to move forward. "We don't always want to do something because of a fad,'' said Johnson, R-Savannah. "We want to think about what it will look like 30 years from now.'' Johnson said the 2006 session will focus on education and jobs. The session began on a positive note in the Senate, with Johnson leading a standing ovation for Taylor. "No one would question he hasn't been a fighter for the people," Johnson said of the lieutenant governor, who presided over his eighth and final opening day Monday. The tone in the House was more partisan, as Democrats and Republicans took opening shots in what is expected to be an election-year war of words. Rep. Bob Holmes, D-Atlanta, charged House Republican leaders with stifling the voices of Democrats last year, the GOP's first in control of the lower chamber, and urged the GOP not to repeat that approach this year. "We need to respect the right of (political) minorities,'' he said. "In order for us to represent our constituencies, we need the right to speak.'' After Monday's floor session, Keen noted that Holmes' comments were made on the House floor. "If you have access to the well of the House, how can you say you don't have an ability to speak?'' Keen said. Much of Monday's hourlong session in the House was taken up with first readings of bills being introduced for consideration this year, the second in the 2005-06 legislative term. Bills aren't voted on until after they are read for a third time. Besides Perdue's natural gas relief bill, the new legislation also included a bill on his agenda requiring local school systems to dedicate at least 65 percent of their funds to classroom expenses. Another House measure being pushed by lawmakers representing southwest Georgia and the state's northwestern counties would require that the state Board of Community Health include at least one teacher. Teachers and state employees from those regions raised an outcry last fall after the state, in a cost-cutting move, entered into a contract with United Health Care to serve members of the State Health Benefit Plan. Many hospitals and doctors in those areas were not part of United Health Care's network and were reluctant to sign on with the company. Taylor's plan to make health insurance for children more affordable also stems from a problem that plagues state employees. The proposed "PeachKids" initiative is similar to the current PeachCare program, which funds health care for 200,000 children in low-income families. Taylor said PeachKids would apply to families who make more than the $40,000 salary cap for PeachCare. The current program does not have an income cap but bases premium costs on income level.

Did Bond make mistakes? Sure he did. But then again, he didn't have a Vulcan there to mind meld for secrets, nor a doctor to cure him with a salt shaker.He had to get information the way a REAL agent does.

"Lets see, Goldfinger who has killed many innocent people is pointing a gun at me. There is no talking to him because I have already destroyed his greedy ambition to make his gold more profitable.He employed a henchman who used his razor hat to snap people's heads.I should try and reason with him and chance getting shot."

The balk rule is one of baseball's laws that's rarely enforced and often misunderstood. Even some major league umpires have admitted to not fully understanding its vague language about "deceiving" the runner. On Tuesday night, Colorado Rockies pitcher Rex Brothers somehow managed to cross the umpires twice, not just in the same game, but while pitching to the same batter. In the bottom of the eighth, with the Phillies' Dominic Brown on first base and Michael Young at the plate, Brothers threw a pitch home that ended up being called dead because of a balk, with Brown advancing to second. A couple pitches later, with Brown still on second, it happened again. For a second time, Brothers went through a full motion and delivered a pitch home, but again it didn't count and again Brown advanced a base. Brothers eventually struck out Young, but only after having delivered five strikes to the third baseman. Though, again, the balk rule is confusing and little invoked, Brothers does appear to balk both times by crossing his lead leg across the other one without throwing to a base. Then again, both calls are probably close enough that they could have gone either way. Check out the bizarre sequence in the video below. Your browser does not support iframes.

EAST LANSING, Mich. Early career scientists will leave the lab this summer to apply their scientific skills to effective teaching, sharpening their skills at workshops held around the country by Michigan State University and partners.
As enrollment in science majors grows, college-level science teaching must forego the straight lecture approach in favor of inquiry-based learning, according to MSU plant biology professor Diane Ebert-May, a passionate researcher and advocate of learner-based instruction. Under her initiative, MSU has landed a four-year, $2 million National Science Foundation grant to train 200 postdoctoral researchers to teach scientifically.
"Many postdoctoral scholars are deeply involved in research and have few opportunities to develop their skills as teachers yet many desire to do so," Ebert-May said. "Once they finish their postdoc positions and join the faculty of a university, they are responsible for both research and teaching, yet they have minimal preparation for teaching science effectively to college students. Our approach gives these future college professors proven methods for teaching science effectively."
The Faculty Institutes for Reforming Science Teaching will attract postdoctoral researchers from across the country. These are scientists who are expected to implement state-of-the-art instruction from an early point in their careers. It is the largest program of its kind, led by Ebert-May and by Terry Derting of Murray State University.
FIRST will conduct four-day workshops this summer and next for 100 postdoctoral biologists. Another 100 will follow in 2011 and 2012. Expert scientists who are innovators in teaching will conduct workshops at five biology field stations across the country, including MSU's Kellogg Biological Station north of Kalamazoo.
Participants will return to their institutions later this year to teach or help teach introductory biology courses using curricula t

Moviegoers in select cities are about to feel infinite over the coming arrival of "The Perks of Being a Wallflower," writer-director Stephen Chbosky's adaptation of his own 1999 novel.
Starring "Percy Jackson" and "Three Musketeers" star Logan Lerman as a socially ostracized youth looking to survive the horrors and hallways of high school, "Perks" offers plenty of food for thought for those still brushing up against locker room woes, and even — especially, really — those who put gym class and school buses behind them long ago. With winning performances from co-stars Emma Watson and Ezra Miller, not to mention a deft handling of delicate subject matter throughout the film, "Perks" is poised to please fans of the original book and newcomers alike.
Read on for our review round-up of "Perks," playing in New York City and Los Angeles theaters now.
The Story
"It's set in 1991 in a tranquil section of Pittsburgh, where Charlie (Logan Lerman), a freshman who has spent time in a mental ward, is quiet and shy mostly because he's frightened of how precocious he is. He falls in with a clique of smart kids, most of whom are seniors, and though he thinks he's in love with the no- nonsense Sam (Emma Watson), the drama isn't in whether they become an item. It's in watching Charlie snap out of his wallflower cocoon by waking up to the real romance in his life: the one with his newfound chums." — Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
From Hogwarts To Pittsburgh
"As Hermione Granger, Watson had a particular set of tics and mannerisms that evolved over the course of the 'Harry Potter' series. Here, I don't see any of that at all. It is such a shift for her, and she's so natural and real here, that I think this would count as the beginning of her adult career. It's a lovely nuanced performance, and at this point, it's impossible not to take note of just how striking she's become." — Drew McWeeny, HitFix.com
Not A Nothing
"'Perks' is stolen, head to tail, by Ezra Miller (sensational as Tilda Swinton's psycho son in 'We Need to Talk About Kevin'). Miller is a force of healing nature as Patrick, Sam's gay stepbrother. For Charlie, Patrick reps a world where feelings get expressed, where problems get talked out. Miller brings stinging humor and surprising tenderness to Patrick, two qualities Charlie needs badly." — Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
The Big, Dark Secret
"We know from the beginning that Charlie had been hospitalized and over the course of the story, when things aren't going as well, the film returns to the first person narrative that opened the film as he writes letters to a mysterious 'friend,' and we start getting hints to what happened that drove him to that point as the film gets progressively darker. The last ten minutes of the movie and a big reveal about Charlie's past may go a bit too far for some, but it's a real testament to Chbosky that he knows how to end on a high note." — Edward Douglas, ComingSoon.net
The Final Word
"Part 'Garden State,' part 'Wonderboys,' and with a smidgeon of 'American Beauty' thrown in for good measure, 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower' is a must-see for fans of the coming-of-age drama. At its worse, it leans toward a maudlin overly-dramatic high school mentality, but that's around 100 seconds of a 102 minute film, nothing too serious. At it's best, it is indeed very, very good, an artful film in the truest sense of the word, holding a mirror up to your memories, even if they never existed there at all." — Laremy Legel, Film.com
Check out everything we've got on "The Perks of Being a Wallflower."

Athletics-Happy 10th birthday parkrun, and my, haven't you grown
LONDON, Sept 26 (Reuters) – A decade ago 13 friends set off on a 5km run in a park in south-west London. Next week all 13 will return, though this time accompanied by 1,000 others, with some 70,000 running worldwide to mark the 10th birthday of the parkrun movement.
This is not some long-planned special event to celebrate the Oct.4 anniversary, these numbers are normal — if 6.2 million completed runs can be considered normal — and growing by the week.
Volunteers and community spirit build momentum behind parkrun
LONDON, Sept 26 (Reuters) – Keen to get a regular Saturday fix of 5km runs under the parkrun banner but finding himself some distance from his nearest event, Gary O'Leary went for the obvious solution — start one on his doorstep.
So, on Oct. 11, a week after parkrun celebrates its 10th anniversary, Panshanger parkrun, near Hertford, north of London, will become around the 290th UK adult event.
Ryder rookies in at deep end for fourball openers
GLENEAGLES Scotland (Reuters) – American captain Tom Watson has rolled the dice for Friday's opening salvos at the Ryder Cup by teaming rookies Jordan Spieth and Patrick Reed together and throwing Jimmy Walker into the fray for the morning fourballs.
European captain Paul McGinley gave Scottish rookie Stephen Gallacher an early taste of the atmosphere by putting him out with cheerleader-in-chief Ian Poulter – against Spieth and Reed, and said fellow debutants Jamie Donaldson and Victor Dubuisson would play in the afternoon foursomes.
Golf-Rookies thrown in early for Ryder Cup opener
GLENEAGLES, Scotland, Sept 25 (Reuters) – Europe's Justin Rose and Henrik Stenson will take on Americans Bubba Watson and Webb Simpson in the opening Ryder Cup fourball match on Friday as both captains revealed their initial strategy during a glossy opening ceremony.
Europe's world number one Rory McIlroy and Sergio Garcia will meet Keegan Bradley and Phil Mickelson, who will set an American record of 10 Ryder Cup appearances, to close out the first session.
Media mismatch captures Ryder Cup's glorious uncertainty
GLENEAGLES Scotland (Reuters) – A curious piece of scheduling seemingly threw the two Ryder cup teams into sharp relief on Thursday as the last three players from each camp took their turn to face the media.
Just as captains like to backload their singles lineups for a surging Sunday finish, Europe's final soundbite salvos were launched by Ian Poulter, Justin Rose and Martin Kaymer.
'Mr Ryder Cup' Poulter revved up to go again
GLENEAGLES Scotland (Reuters) – Ian Poulter has become the symbolic beating heart of Europe's Ryder Cup team, the man the home players and fans will look to and player the Americans want to beat so badly it hurts.
And he is absolutely loving it all.
Rarely, if ever, has a player produced such sustained brilliance in the biennial tournament while at the same time struggling to make an impact on the regular tours as Poulter has in recent years.
Wounded soldiers' visit reminds us it's just a game, says Watson
GLENEAGLES Scotland (Reuters) – The U.S. team were widely criticized for aligning themselves with the military during the "War on the Shore" 1991 Ryder Cup but there was nothing jingoistic about current captain Tom Watson's decision to bring two "Wounded Warriors" into his camp.
Sergeant First Class Josh Olson lost his right leg and Sergeant Noah Galloway lost his left arm above the elbow and left leg above the knee during service with the U.S. Army in Iraq but both have gone on to produce inspirational sporting performances.
McIlroy mesmerized by Ferguson pep-talk
GLENEAGLES Scotland (Reuters) – Rory McIlroy is the world's number one golfer, a four-times major winner, multi-millionaire and the focal point of Europe's Ryder Cup team, but he was like a wide-eyed schoolboy in the presence of former Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson.
The all-conquering Scot, who led United to 13 Premier League titles and a host of other trophies in his 26 years at Old Crawford, gave the team a pep-talk on Tuesday night and McIlroy, a United fan, said it was the highlight of his week so far.

I'm not the big dog, I'm just having fun, says Bubba
GLENEAGLES Scotland (Reuters) – Bubba Watson played down his newly-acquired "big dog" epithet on Tuesday and said he was ready to curb his exuberance if he felt it could help his American team deal with what is likely to be a red-hot Ryder Cup atmosphere this week.
Earlier on Tuesday United States captain Tom Watson said the big-hitting two-times Masters winner would probably be the man the Europeans would most like to beat, just as his team have their crosshairs firmly fixed on Ian Poulter.

I'm posting from behind a two meter spiked fence at the moment. Outside the fence are people living in shit conditions, suffering, and generally making the world an uglier place for me. And we still get robbed. All the money I have can't fix the side effects of living in an impoverished city. Having actually spent significant time in both situations, I've come to realize that the people who don't see the advantages of a reasonable degree of socialism are the people whose worlds have benefitted from it so thoroughly they take it for granted.
Has anyone every told you that you talk like the Borg?
The right way to level things (in all court dealings) would be to have both parties pay into a legal fund that compensates the lawyers for both sides. One side having more money should not entitle them to more power in court. If either side wants to contribute more so that the lawyers on both sides are better, that's great - go ahead. But the practice of buying a verdict by outspending your opponent on lawyer power should not be allowed.
It's happened with arson experts too. I remember reading a horrible story of a guy convicted of burning his family to death because all the experts described these "pour patterns" in the burnt floor, signifying liquid accelerant. After he was put to death, they figured out it was just carpet glue patterns.
Between the way police feel free to shoot fleeing non-dangerous subjects these days, planting evidence in full view of other officers, lying on the stand to get convictions, and the labs and experts from every field falsifying results, I'd say our legal system is a disaster.
And why isn't being obligated to serve on a jury silly? It's actually very much like voting - you are required to offer your opinion for the benefit of society, whether you feel like it or not.
From a practical perspective, required voting takes some of impact of emotions out of elections, which is good thing. It also overcomes the various ways that people are obstructed from voting. These things outweigh the unavoidable issue of people casting random (i.e. self-cancelling) votes or other shenanigans.
I guess you haven't read "The Wisdom of Crowds".
One of the things they talk about in there is how the random noise of idiocy tends to cancel out allowing for a good result - but only if the sampling is done correctly. Required voting is one means to achieve that. Letting people decide if they want to vote or not skews things toward the irrational emotional, which is fairly obviously what has happened in the US.
I've been on reddit so long it took me a minute to realize I can't upvote you. Maybe not a lot of people here will agree with you, but you've nailed it. I work IT in environments with lots of regular folk and the power and flexibility I crave is a) useless to them and b) the source of the vast majority of their problems.
Just played the WebGL version in Chrome. Works fine, looks great. I don't know what you're doing wrong, but it's probably your fault.
So here's a serious question... why can so many other countries do it well? They combine healthcare and government and it's fine. So is the US functionally retarded? I don't think we are, but if this is really the undoable task that half this thread implies, what's wrong with us?
States rights survived the civil war. Or maybe you feel they didn't. In either case, that was the point at which we decided the scope of states rights. Gay marriage is nothing compared to that.
Or maybe... just maybe... it's because it's not as bad as you think.
Of course it's much easier to assume everyone else is wrong than to question your beliefs.
> > "Everyone knew what was in it"
> Prove it.
Prove they didn't.
Oh, is that a stupid reply? Yes it is. You can't prove either thing in a meaningful way but you can look at the situation and draw a reasonably solid conclusion.
1. The basic structure of the law was fleshed out a more than a decade earlier by the Heritage Foundation. It was a well known idea.
2. The basic model was put into effect in Massachusetts years earlier. People knew how it worked in practice.
3. The ACA was discussed for months in congress and even hours on live TV, with all the key players on both sides of the aisle in attendance.
4. For the public there was a easy to comprehend, footnoted summary PDF provided by congress online many months in advance, as well as a nationwide town-hall campaign that completely backfired because of loud-mouthed reactionaries.
5. The people who claim that nobody knows what's in it apparently know more than enough to criticize it.
There was more open public discussion and understanding of the ACA than any other law I can think of in my whole life, and I ain't young. If you want to make the case that some people were willfully ignorant of the contents (i.e. death panels), I'll agree. But that is not the fault of the ACA.
> Electrons move around a nuclei the same way planets move around suns
Not even remotely. This idea was proposed back when humans had no understanding of subatomic behavior, and they were drawing assumptions based things they did know, like the solar system. If you want to actually know how electrons and nuclei behave, try to wrap your mind around quantum mechanics. It's almost impossible as it bears little resemblance to anything else you might be familiar with.
It's an interesting example, though, because it illustrates how whenever humans don't know what they're talking about, they fill in the gaps with things that are familiar. Like chariots carrying fire through the sky and an anthropomorphic God creating the universe.
From there your comment just goes further off the rails. Nobody thinks they're "smarter than everyone else". But observation and reason let us learn about the world, and we've learned over and over that mankind's notion of God is always several steps behind our observational understanding. Everything that has improved in the past two centuries has been at the hands of man. We're slowly figuring out ways to improve our lot in life. God's word was around for thousands of years before the enlightenment and didn't improve anything.
The universe is amazing, and every facet fills me with awe. But that doesn't mean there needs to be a personality behind it. I can take it for what it is without having to project my ideas of meaning onto it.
As evidence of USB being an improvement I submit the explosion of USB devices, from cameras, to mp3 players, to thumb drives, to midi/digital audio interfaces, to webcams, to wifi adapters, to external CD and DVD for laptops, to...
You get the idea. The ubiquity of such devices could never have happened under the old system. The interfaces of yesteryear were a stumbling block for innovation in many ways. Thank god they're gone, and thank god we've got a brain-dead simple (from a user perspective) interconnect that is simple and cheap enough to implement from a developer perspective to have allowed the world to move on.
Remember, you can always roll back to the DIN/COM/LPT/FDC/IDE setup. Plenty of parts still around. Heck, I fire up a C64 emulator once in a while myself
Adapt. Enjoy. Survive.

It is set amidst some of the most popular bars and restaurants of the city and a 5-minute stroll from the main shopping areas.

The rooms and suites of the venue are decorated in a contemporary yet luxurious style with distinct Asian touches.

For some al fresco dining guests can head to the outdoor terrace of the in-house restaurant or its fine dining hall, if elegance is what they are looking for. The vibrant lounge bar is a great option for a chilled drink and a pleasant conversation at the end of the busy day.

Ok, so these posts are a few years old… But I am reinstalling a copy of World of Xeen onto my wife's computer, running XP, and wondering first of all, how do I use VDMSound to get it running, and secondly, will it work? I tried DosBox, and the system froze. Not sure if I had a setting wrong or what, but it sucked. So, anyone know if Xeen will work with VDMSound, and if so, how to do it?
Normally, after installing VDMS, you just right-click on the game's exe file and select "run with VDMS". The option will show up on all 16-bit DOS programs
