A driver who crossed the centre line, killing a Wanaka bar worker, was not prosecuted because he was dying, Otago Southland coroner David Crerar says.
Kirra Lee Smith, 23, a United States national who worked in a Wanaka bar, was killed in the crash on the outskirts of Alexandra on July 29 last year when Cromwell man Max Birtles crossed on to the wrong side of State Highway 8, near Butchers Dam.
Crerar's report says he is satisfied the evidence shows Birtles' driving was below the standard of a normal and prudent driver and for reasons unknown, but possibly related to illness, he crossed the centre line.
Smith was driving with her friend, Tessa Senior, in the passenger seat when there was a head-on crash.
Birtles, who was terminally ill, faced charges of careless use of a motor vehicle causing death and careless use causing injury but the case was stayed on medical grounds and Birtles died on January 27.
His lawyer previously said he planned to defend the charges.
Crerar's report cites a police crash analyst who had calculated Smith's Toyota was travelling at 90kmh and Birtles' Holden at 100kmh and that the American woman had tried to veer left.
''It is probable that, if Birtles had not been suffering from a terminal illness, he would have been prosecuted by the police and it is probable that a conviction against him for the offences ... would have been entered," the report says.
''Maxwell Birtles recalled pulling the (Holden) Captiva to the road near Fruitlands and thought that this must have been to make a telephone call or write a note necessary for his employment. The next thing he remembered was the collision.''
Crerar's findings say Smith was not able to avoid a crash and must take no responsibility for the head-on.
Birtles was well-known in Central Otago. He had been involved in heritage since the 1980s and was pivotal in the development of the Old Cromwell town precinct.

Herbert has done nothing to go beyond the minimum federal standards requiring clean air and water. In fact, the feds have had to threaten Utah with sanctions just to get those minimum standards met. Thank you, feds, for protecting our air and water.

How about some incentives to encourage the making of better choices. As the saying goes, "a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down". Threats, penalties may drive the "horse to water", but making it drink will be more difficult while creating an environment of passive aggressiveness that only makes change more difficult. The Governor's timid approach is better as we learn better how to reward improvement. Individuals, business, industry and communities will change when the changes suggested make sense and reduce their costs, instead of increasing costs and having little practicality.

PETALING JAYA: A mother of a Chinese passenger on the missing MH370 plane has denied that the Malaysian police mistreated her when she sought to get answers about her son at a press conference.
Liu Guiqui, the mother of Li Le told CCTV in an interview that she did not understand what was going on at first.
Liu also said that she believed that the Malaysian government was under pressure to search for the plane.
"I understand that they are busy searching for the plane. So it makes some sense, that they can't pay as much attention to the families.
When asked about whether the Malaysian government was hiding anything, Liu said she just wanted her son to return.
"It could very well be some kind of military secret. But I don't even want to know. I just want my son to return with all the other passengers on the plane. I don't care about the secrets. I just want my son to return," she said.
Describing the earlier incident when she was seen wailing hysterically Liu denied being mistreated.
"That's not true. I was surrounded by reporters. There was a young policeman whom I initially thought was about to grab me.
"At first I didn't understand what was going on. But then someone told me not to panic. They reassured me that they were there to protect me," she said.
Live footage of Liu being carried away by security personnel while wailing was broadcast around the world.
Many of the reports including those by CNN and Sky News implied that the Malaysian authorities mistreated her.
When asked why she went for the press conference, Liu said she needed to ask the Malaysian politicians what happened to her son.
"How is it that we have no information? At that stage, the plane had been missing for 12 days. I can't understand why there hasn't been any news.
"There has been no news about my son. None at all. I'm going to go crazy," she said.
When asked why she came to KL instead of staying in Beijing, she said that she wanted to be the first to greet her son when he returned.
"My son is such a kind-hearted, good person. In my heart, he is so loyal and so kind. He treats everyone with respect," he said.
Liu said her son has a daughter but they could not tell her what has happened.
"We have a rule that no one in the family is allowed to cry or mention this issue in front of her.
She wouldn't be able to cope with this news about her father. She really loves her father. She cried for him every night," she said.

Barcelona forward Lionel Messi reached another milestone in his phenomenal career today when he set a record for goals scored in a calendar year of 86 with a La Liga double at Real Betis, beating Gerd Mueller's 40-year-old tally of 85.
The 25-year-old World Player of the Year equalled the record with his first of the night in Seville when he picked up the ball in a central position in the 16th minute and left the Betis defence standing before sending an angled shot across goal into the bottom right corner.
Andres Iniesta's clever back heel set the Argentine up to score again nine minutes later with a sweeping shot from a similar position just inside the penalty area that flew into the same corner of the goal.
"I always say the same, it's nice for what it means but the victory is more important as it maintains our lead over the other teams," a typically modest Messi said in a post-match interview with Spanish TV broadcaster Canal Plus.
"My goal when the year began was to try to achieve everything again, with the team, in the league, the (King's) Cup, the Champions League," he added. "I always start with that idea in mind."
Favourite to secure a fourth successive World Player award when the winner is announced next month, Messi has netted 74 times for Barca and 12 for Argentina in 2012, surpassing Mueller's total for Bayern Munich and Germany in 1972.
He has scored 56 in La Liga, 13 in the Champions League, three in the King's Cup and two in the Spanish Super Cup and still has two league matches and one King's Cup game to add to his tally before the end of the year.
Mueller, known as the "torpedo" while Messi's nickname is "the flea", netted 72 for Bayern and 13 for Germany in 1972 and was 27 when he set the record.
The pair have very different playing styles, with the left-footed Messi scoring many of his goals after trademark weaving runs, while Mueller was more of a poacher inside the box.
Asked about the World Player award, Messi said he would be happy for his Barca team mate Andres Iniesta to win, one of three nominated along with Messi and Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo who won it in 2008.
"Obviously if he (Iniesta) wins it's fully deserved for what he has achieved and what he is as a player, what he does every match," Messi told Canal Plus.
"If he wins it would also be a good thing, it's an award for the entire dressing room."
Messi's double against Betis took his tally in 15 La Liga outings this season to 23 and he became Barca's all-time top league scorer on 192 goals, two more than Cesar Rodriguez.

The GameThis is a brief column about the game against Anaheim Ducks.
Colorado closed the old year by great performance. It was like its play during the Eurolanche Invasion IV few days ago. The stable was the main reason of another win – we did not see substitution of good and weak moments there – they just played the whole game on the same level. All 60 minutes and almost everybody on the ice. No frustration, no dreaming after three goal lead. Giguere did not have much work, because men in front of him were very good – but he had some big, nice and important saves. The offensive justly confirmed my theory about being stable. Hejduk scored finally and everybody expect this result from our hero. Quincey added one, so here is also defense´s contribute – I think he is our best d-man in this season. The third one was scored by Kobasew who played great in the previous game. The Avs players won in spite of missing Duchene. It is shame that Jones was invisible and also two allowed goals.

Joe Johnson hits the overtime game-winner to send Nets past Suns (VIDEO)
Nov 16, 2013, 1:48 AM EDT
PHOENIX — Joe Johnson's game-winning layup as the overtime buzzer sounded gave the Nets their first road win of the season, a hard-fought 100-98 victory that came without the team's starting point guard, Deron Williams.
Williams was lost early in the first quarter to a sprained left ankle, but the play of Shaun Livingston, along with Johnson's big-time shots late were enough to overcome a Suns team that continues to battle to the end, no matter the circumstances.
It was another wild one for the Suns, who for the second time this season gave up a large lead by being on the wrong end of a huge run, only to battle back and eventually take control. Against the Nuggets a week ago, Phoenix was able to stabilize and pull away for the win. Some poor shot selection late, however, along with a mad scramble at the finish saw the Suns drop a heartbreaker for the second straight contest.
Johnson's heroics were a big reason the Nets were able to get just their third win of the season in eight tries. He was 3-of-14 from the field through three quarters, but has a history of making shots when they matter most. Johnson hit three of his last five, and the last two were the ones that first kept Brooklyn's hopes alive, and then sent a wave of euphoria through the hearts of his teammates.
Johnson hit a runner with 29 seconds left in regulation that tied the game at 92, and then came the game-winner on a transition play where the Suns didn't seem to have a chance.
Channing Frye missed a three with just over seven seconds remaining, and after the ball was tipped a couple of times, Kevin Garnett tapped it out to Johnson at the elbow. Goran Dragic tried for the steal, but once the ball landed in Johnson's hands, there were no defenders in place and he was off to the races.
"I knew once KG tipped it out to me I looked up and there was four and a half, maybe five seconds left," Johnson said afterward. "I knew I didn't have to take a rushed shot. I just took my time coming up the court, and was able to get in the paint there and make a play."
P.J. Tucker ran back to try and defend, as did Frye, who ran straight to the rim. Johnson hesitated near the three-point line just enough to make Tucker do the same, and he was able to shake the defender closing on the perimeter before getting the game-winner to go over Frye inside.
"I hesitated to make them think I was going to pull up," Johnson said. "The way I was shooting I had no intention of pulling up."
It was an important win for the Nets, if only to try to gain some footing in this young season that hasn't exactly gone as expected. The loss of Williams will hurt depending how much time (if any) he ultimately misses, but the Nets rode Brook Lopez by feeding him plenty in the second half, and that's a formula they can use to have success against most teams. Livingston's speed and playmaking were both fantastic in this one, and if he can deliver that while Williams is out, the team can use this game as a building block moving forward.
"You know, it could be a domino effect," Johnson said of the way his team won. "Hopefully it will be, but this was a tough one — probably because it was our first win on the road. We just showed a lot of resiliency. Deron went down, and Shaun stepped up and played big, man. And that's what we needed."
Johnson's teammates understandably stormed the floor after his game-winning bucket, wanting to enjoy one of the few positive moments of this trying early season. But after playing almost 45 minutes and with a tough game against the Clippers on the horizon the very next night, Johnson had no interest in the extended celebration.
"I couldn't even celebrate I was so tired," Johnson said. "I was ready to get out of there. Those guys are trying to celebrate, I'm ready to go to the locker room and get a shower."

"Glen is a great gentlemen to rent from. His home was clean and ready to go hours before the check in time. That is always a plus with children! The views were amazing. We scootered to the beach, which was a 2min ride. The shops and pool were within walking distance as well. I enjoyed the list he left for us about the general location. Plus, the tv lineup was a hit with the little ones. The kayak was wonderful, and the paddle to 'seashell island' was great! I would most certainly rent from him again. :) You will not be disappointed! Price was perfect too!"Guest: Mallorie Date of Stay: June 2015 Review Submitted: July 9, 2015View listing
"We were so pleased with our stay at "Hinesite". The beach house was so comfortable, clean, and everything we could have hoped for. It was the perfect size for our two families (total of 7 people). Spacious enough for everyone to spend time together, eat meals together, and have some personal space when needed. I loved that the second bedroom was as big as the master. It was nestled in a quiet neighborhood which made it possible to spend evenings enjoying the breeze on the decks.

"The house was very clean when we arrived and the layout was perfect for the two of us our two children and their spouses and one toddler grandson. We loved the views and the beach. It is a workout to get over the dune, but you can feel yourself getting stronger every day. Do watch out for the hot sand on those hot sunny days. Great place for the sunrise walk on the beach and the sunset view toward the sound. The nearby sound beach is a perfect place for toddlers with easy access, just to the south in the park."Guest: Anonymous Date of Stay: July 2015 Review Submitted: July 29, 2015View listing
"Great location! Quiet residential section right by the sound. Updates abound! From the nice fluffy towels, pretty wood floors, soft linens, electronics galore,....the list goes on. Kayaks are great fun in the sound. We managed to see deer on the bank further north while we were kayaking one day. About as serene an experience you can have. We had 3 girls, age 8, 9 & 10 with us and they loved the place. Nice to be able to get them into bed at night in their own room with a movie (plenty of selections) playing to ease them into sleep. The game room downstairs was fun but only after we cleared out all of the cobwebs and swept up a few dead bugs. Musty down there. A few minor hiccups: lock code didn't work at check-in so we had to contact owner to reset remotely which took a good 30 minutes to accomplish. Of course, that gave us a little time to check out the sound so not a biggie. 2 of the 4 burners on the stove were non-functioning so we had to juggle a bit to cook for 7 people each night. There were also a few cobwebs inside the house itself. We had window unit AC for the first 2-3 days which was a downer. Owner apologized for that since the guys who were supposed to install their whole house central AC unit came up sick and weren't able to get it done in time. Out of her control and kudos for getting them in on a memorial day holiday to actually install it. Very detailed instructions on everything were laid out nicely. Since my father and I were the only ones who actually read them, it was funny to watch everyone else try to figure out how to turn on the living room ceiling fan (hint: try the white remote-lol). Plenty of extras to take to the beach including 4 chairs, lifeguard style umbrella, Frisbees, sand toys, bocce ball, plus a wheeled cart to use to roll all that stuff over the dune. Since our crew is pretty laid back, we were able to overlook the "hiccups" that I listed earlier and have a truly wonderful vacation. I could see where someone who...say resides north of the Mason-Dixon line, might not be able to overlook those hiccups. Overall, a great vacation in a nice property. Would definitely do it again and recommend to my friends & family."Guest: Eddie Date of Stay: May 2015 Review Submitted: June 5, 2015View listing

Alan Gross's wife in DC_311.
(photo credit:Courtesy)
WASHINGTON – There was a chair empty at the Gross family's Thanksgiving dinner
last week. It was also empty on Passover, and on last Thanksgiving too. This
chair was not, however, awaiting the arrival of the Prophet Elijah or a tardy
guest. The chair belongs to Alan Gross, a 62-year-old husband, father and son,
who has been condemned to a Cuban jail cell until he is 77 years old. His crime?
Cellular phones.Or plotting insurgency, if you ask the
Cubans.Gross's wife Judy spoke with The Jerusalem Post on Monday days
before the two-year anniversary of Alan's imprisonment.Judy Gross is
understated, hesitant to express emotion or admit to hardship. She maintains a
near-unbearable daily regimen, working her "day job" and then coming home to
devote hours in the evening to the campaign to free her husband. Down time, she
says, is the most difficult to bear, when she feels that she is
alone.Judy Gross is in the midst of a campaign to raise public awareness
in the hopes that something, somewhere, might give. The Jewish community has
rallied around her, holding vigils and Alan Gross solidarity
Sabbaths."Our goal is to make him a household name so that people know
what is going on, so that there will be more outrage," Judy
explains.Earlier in November, Judy flew to Cuba to visit her husband. En
route, she met with a representative of the Cuban Jewish community."It
was one of those very cordial meetings," Gross recalls. "We talked about the
community itself – she wanted to show me the community, its synagogue, and its
community facilities." Absent from Gross's recollection, however, was any help
in securing Alan's release.

RATINGS: 391 WEIGHTED AVG: 3.76 SEASONAL: Special EST. CALORIES: 270 ABV: 9%
Frangelic Mountain Brown is the quintessential taproom one-off beer: Founders brewers created the Mountain Brown series for their taproom in Grand Rapids in 2007. Frangelic Mountain Brown is the 16th iteration in the series of popular brown alesand it likely wont be the last. The singular characteristic of this beer comes from the use of hazelnut coffees in the brewing process. The beer has distinct aromatics with sweet and nutty flavors beautifully balanced. Founders is known for its beers made with coffee (i.e., the Breakfast Stout series), but this is both the brewerys first brown ale and its first beer brewed with hazelnut coffees to be bottled. It clocks in at 9% ABV.

American Optimism Lowest Since 1979
(CBS DC) Fewer than four-in-10 Americans (39 percent) rate the US in a positive manner — the most negative feedback the country has produced since 1979.
A new Gallup poll finds that Americans are as negative about the country's prospects as they have been in more than three decades. Americans are more upbeat in their predictions of where the U.S. will be in five years (48 percent positive), but this is the lowest rating since an August 1979 Gallup poll was conducted.
The negativity about the current state of the US has a politically partisan split — Republicans stated that the country's best days have already passed and Democrats say the best days have not happened yet. Seventy-five percent of Democrats gave positive reviews of how the nation will be five years from now, but only 15 percent of Republicans were positive — a 60 percent partisan gap.
Independents break 48% for 5 years from now, and 39% now.
Democrats are apparently enthused that 5 years from now they'll still be unemployed and living off the government teet, as the economy stagnates much like Europe and America's debt is in the $20 trillion range.

OPINION: While the article written by Room 3 of St Teresa's School in Bluff makes many valid points, I am concerned they have missed the point when talking about brain damage and head injuries.
Our brain is our most valuable asset and needs to be treated as such. It is our own inbuilt computer.
We only get one brain and although the doctors and specialists are extremely clever at patching us up after accidents and falls, they cannot completely repair our brain.
You do not have to be travelling fast on a scooter, bicycle, trike or skateboard to receive head injuries as well as physical injuries in a fall.
Many children have bicycles and helmets - what is the difference when riding a scooter? They are both ridden on footpaths, roads and reserves.
Yes, money is tight for families, but what price do you put on your children's lives?
Our children are precious and deserve to be protected.
What quality of life is there and what ongoing expenses are there, as the result of a fall or accident?
There are lifelong side-effects from head injuries, not only for the victim, but their families and ultimately the community.
Head injuries happen to anyone, anywhere, anytime.
In New Zealand, 90 people a day suffer head injuries.
It is the single greatest cause of disability in people under the age of 40.
Please protect your brain and wear a helmet.

Florida Atlantic University: Another Left-Wing Seminary
Question: What is the difference between Christian seminaries and American universities?
Answer: Christian seminaries announce that their purpose is to produce committed Christians. American universities do not admit that their primary purpose is to produce committed leftists. They claim that their purpose is to open students' minds.
This month Florida Atlantic University provided yet another example of how universities have become left-wing seminaries.
An FAU professor told his students to write "JESUS" (in bold caps) on a piece of paper and then step on it.
One student who did not, a junior named Ryan Rotela, complained to the professor and then to the professor's supervisor. He explained that he had refused to do so because it violated his religious principles.
Two days later, Rotela was told not to attend the class anymore. The university then went on to defend the professor in an email to a local CBS TV station: "Faculty and students at academic institutions pursue knowledge and engage in open discourse. While at times the topics discussed may be sensitive, a university environment is a venue for such dialogue and debate."
FAU further pointed out that the stomping exercise — to "discuss the importance of symbols in culture" — came from a textbook titled "Intercultural Communication: A Contextual Approach."
After the story became national news, FAU issued an apology: "We sincerely apologize for any offense this has caused. Florida Atlantic University respects all religions and welcomes people of all faiths, backgrounds and beliefs."
Of course, this "apology" was meaningless. Apologizing for "giving offense" has nothing to do with condemning the act. Not to mention that kicking Rotela out of the class belied the university's claim of open discourse.
This story is significant because it provides yet another example of the deteriorated state of American higher education. There are some excellent professors in the so-called "social sciences" at American universities. But they are in the minority. The left has taken over American universities as well as most high schools, and like almost everything the left has influenced — education, religion, the arts and the economies of most countries — this influence has been destructive.
The argument that the professor represents no one but himself is refuted by the fact that the university defended the professor until it feared the national outcry that resulted.
Moreover, in another nationally reported incident, Northwestern University acted similarly in 2011. One of its professors invited his 600 students to stay after class to watch a live demonstration of female ejaculation, the subject of that day's class. A naked young woman (not a student) then used a motorized sex toy to come to orgasm. About 120 of the students watched.
When word got out, Northwestern defended the professor: "Northwestern University faculty members engage in teaching and research on a wide variety of topics, some of them controversial and at the leading edge of their respective disciplines. The university supports the efforts of its faculty to further the advancement of knowledge."
Like FAU, only after national condemnation increased did Northwestern "apologize."
Entire books have been written providing hundreds of examples of left-wing indoctrination having replaced education in American universities. FAU is just the latest example.
It is also instructive that the name to be stepped on was JESUS, not, for instance, MUHAMMAD, ALLAH or, for that matter, BILL CLINTON or MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.
Imagine the reaction at FAU if a professor had told students to step on the name MUHAMMAD. The professor would be condemned at huge rallies organized by the university to protest "Islamophobia." And he would fear for his life. Desecrate Christianity and you get tenure. Desecrate Islam and you get bodyguards.
Or, imagine if the name had been MARTIN LUTHER KING. FAU professors would have competed with one another in expressing outrage at this example of the racism that pervades the university and America. The president of the university would have issued a statement condemning the professor and distancing FAU from his action.
And is there one reader of this column who is surprised to learn that the FAU professor, Deandre Poole, is vice-chairman of the Palm Beach County Democratic Party? Or that the party defended him?
This is why I founded Prager University (www.prageru.org): to undo in five-minute courses the intellectual and moral damage that universities do over four years. And unlike FAU and Northwestern, PragerU is free.
The universities' damage is huge and enduring. And you don't have to believe in JESUS to recognize it.

Incidental harvest of thousands of Chinook salmon in Gulf of Alaska trawl fisheries is an issue that just won't go away, simmering before federal fisheries managers as debate continues over whether a catch share program would solve the problem.
Final action on Gulf of Alaska king salmon bycatch in non-pollock trawl fisheries is scheduled for the June 3-11 meeting of the North Pacific Fishery Management Council at Juneau, as well as the initial review of discussion papers on Gulf trawl bycatch management and Gulf trawl data collection. The federal council also is working on a Gulf trawl catch share program.
Some area fishermen want full observer coverage of all trawl vessels in the Gulf of Alaska, as well as full retention of all fish caught incidentally. As a result, millions of pounds of fish caught incidentally to the directed harvest would be processed for food, rather than thrown back dead into the ocean, they contend.
The 25,000 cap on Chinook salmon bycatch in the Gulf pollock fishery approved by the council went into effect in August 2012, but the Alaska Marine Conservation Council noted that other trawl fisheries in the Gulf also caught king salmon as bycatch while targeting flatfish, cod and rockfish. In 2010, these other Gulf trawl fisheries caught nearly 10,000 Chinook salmon as bycatch, AMCC said.
At COMFISH Alaska 2013 on April 11 at Kodiak, panelists discussed the prospect of a catch share program underway for Gulf groundfish trawlers and pot cod boats.

41 inmates escape in Mexican border town
A jail in the northern Mexican city of Matamoros, across the border from Brownsville, Texas, has proven porous in the past
MEXICO CITY — Law enforcement officials are searching for two prison guards and 41 inmates have escaped from a jail in the northern Mexican city of Matamoros, across the border from Brownsville, Texas.
Prison director Orlando Saucedo Pinto has been put on temporary leave as investigators review how the prisoners broke out, Mexican prison officials told a news conference.
Prison staff are also being investigated, they said.
State leaders in Mexico have complained in the past that they do not have facilities secure enough to accommodate more serious, federally charged prisoners. Authorities said that all but three of the prisoners who escaped had been charged under federal law but were being held at the state institution. Details of Thursday's escape were not immediately available.
Last year guards stood by as more than 50 prisoners walked out of another jail in northern Mexico.

Joe Bennett
OPINION: Every week about a million people die. That's good news for undertakers and various forms of clergy.
In the same period about 2 million people are born which is good news for midwives and commodity prices. But it's bad news for everything else.
Of the million who died last week I knew one. His name was Roger. He died in a hospice in England on Tuesday, November 20, 2012.
Cancer got him. It had taken a year to strip away his flesh and squeeze the breath from him. By all accounts he bore the pain with courage. I'm not surprised. He was a brave man. But it isn't for his courage that I'll remember Roger.
He was an entrepreneur, which meant only that he liked to be independent and was full of ideas. He started numerous businesses. He sold helicopters to South America. He traded in computers before most of us knew what a computer was. When his house flooded he got painters in and by the time they'd finished he'd formed them into a limited company with a contract to paint supermarkets in Nigeria. But it isn't for his enterprise that I'll remember Roger.
One of his ventures was a language school. He'd rent a prep school near London for the summer and fill it with teenagers from Europe. To look after them he hired university students and other wastrels. Our job was to teach the kids English, entertain them and prevent them having sex. We succeeded in entertaining them.
I worked for Roger for four summers. But it isn't as an employer that I'll remember him.
He loved to argue. Often after the kids had gone to bed, and some of them even to sleep, we would sit up late discussing split infinitives or gravity or God. Roger would argue with quiet reason. I would always oppose him.
But I also listened closely, because next time the subject arose I planned to steal his arguments. He had one of the clearest minds I have known. Yet it isn't as a thinker that I'll remember Roger.
Roger's laugh rose like the bubbles in tonic water. He was a naturally funny man, but he preferred to enjoy the comedy of others. Such modesty was typical, as was his gentleness. I never saw him lose his temper or heard him raise his voice. But what I'll remember him for is his kindness.
Andy, Peter and I took the kids to see Tommy Steele in London. Once they were inside the theatre, Andy and I snuck off to watch a film. We didn't want to see Tommy Steele, and the kids couldn't get into any trouble. They could and they did. Such trouble indeed that Tommy Steele refused to come out for the second half until our kids had been thrown out.
When Andy and I returned we found them outside with a frazzled Peter and an irate theatre manager. Back at school we admitted our sin to Roger. He was the sort of man you didn't lie to. He said we had put him in legal jeopardy, and neglected our duty. Then he said he'd never liked Tommy Steele much either.
There was a German kid at the school who had a broader English vocabulary than most of his teachers. Once he found me fishing, and watched as I baited the hook with a single maggot, then reached for the bait tin. "Allow me to impale another larva," he said.
But the kid had a bad dose of adolescence. He was appallingly shy, volcanic with acne and the girls complained that he smelt. We teachers weren't far out of adolescence ourselves and we did nothing to help the lad. Roger did.
When he emerged from Roger's office clutching a bag of toiletries, he looked happier and more confident than I had seen him before. It was a little thing for Roger, a huge thing for the boy.
And it is for things like that that I'll remember Roger. He was among the kindest people I have known. I don't believe there is a greater virtue. He made people feel good about themselves.
His daughter was with him when he died. "He was sharp-witted to the end," she wrote in an email, "and so very tender-hearted."
There are a million more people on the planet than there were last week. And next week there'll be a million more. Let's hope there are some as sharp-witted and tender-hearted as Roger. There will need to be. Rest his good bones.

Alternative Explanations
There is little doubt that this movie is very much open to interpretation. There are several possible explanations and in most cases plenty of viewers will love it even though they have no idea what happened. To be honest there can't be many people who completely understood the movie the first time they watched it unless they had some inside knowledge.
The real explanation follows "The Philosophy of Time Travel" and you can read it here. When you follow this explanation there doesn't seem to be any holes in the plot. Every scene makes sense, the story is consistent and the whole movie comes together.
Here are some of the alternative theories.
It is implied in the film that Donnie is a schizophrenic and therefore the film is him going through an episode of his illness. This theory is plausible because every single event could be put down to this. Hallucinations and hearing voices is a schizophrenic trait and could easily explain Frank's appearance. There is a scene with Donnie's therapist at the end of the film where she admits to giving Donnie placebo's as medication for his illness. This would suggest that he in fact never was a schizophrenic. For me Richard Kelly put the idea of Donnie being schizophrenic into the movie deliberately as a red herring. It's an easier alternative theory that allows first time viewers to still enjoy the movie.
The whole movie was a dream theory is of course possible but ultimately pointless. When he goes to sleep on October 2nd at the beginning of the movie he dreams this mystical adventure just before he gets smooshed by jet engine.
The obvious hole in this theory is why do the first few minutes of October 2nd happen twice? An easy theory to enjoy maybe for the first watch but why would the director create this amazing magical alternative Universe theory and then just make it all out to be a dream?
Donnie Is Shown the Future
This is quite a popular theory. It portrays Frank as a kind of Ghost of Christmas Future character who saves Donnie and then either shows him or allows him to live the next 28 days of his life. At the end Donnie returns back to October 2nd and now has the opportunity to choose his own fate.
So many bad things happened in those 28 days including his girlfriend getting killed and Donnie becoming a killer himself that he decides to stay in bed at the end of the film to sacrifice himself for the good of others. By dying he saves Frank, Gretchen and his mother and sister from a plane crash.
Unfortunately this theory asks more questions than it answers:
- Why is Frank giving Donnie this choice?
- Why does he tell Donnie to Flood the school and burn down Jim Cunningham's house?
- Why does Frank appear as a dead version and an alive version?
- Why does "The Philosophy Of Time Travel" appear in the story?
- How does the unexplained jet engine figure in the story?
The biggest weakness in this theory is the fact that Donnie is shown or lives out a completely different future from what would normally have happened. Most of the events only happen because we are within a Tangent Universe.
- Frank gets Donnie to flood the school which means Donnie walks Gretchen home.
- Frank gets Donnie to burn down Cunningham's house which leads to the party
- Donnie rips the engine off the plane his mother and sister are on
None of these things would happen in the real world. What's the point in Donnie being shown an alternate future and then given the choice to live or die based on events that wont happen?
There are just too many plot flaws with this theory. It just doesn't work and there are virtually no scenes in the movie to back it up.
The Looping Tangent Universe
here is a theory out there that follows The Philosophy of Time Travel but with one major change. The idea is that every 28 days the Tangent Universe collapses, then loops back round to October 2nd and starts over again. Basically the Tangent Universe is a repeating time-loop that will continue until Donnie is successful in returning the jet engine into the Primary Universe. The film is Donnie's first successful attempt at returning the jet engine and there have been several failed attempts before.
This explanation can be read at www.themoviegoer.com/donnie_darko. One of the reasons this theory is so popular is it usually comes up on the first page of google if search for a Donnie Darko explanation.
I don't think this idea follows The Philosophy Of Time Travel accurately enough. The Tangent Universe only lasts for several weeks before it collapses and destroys the whole Universe. If it looped back round every time then the Universe wouldn't be in danger.
This theory seems to hinge on only a few pieces of the movie. The main basis of this theory is that Donnie wakes up on the mountain laughing at the beginning of the film. He's laughing as if he remembers something from the previous Tangent Universe loop.
Now the major flaw there is Donnie wakes up on the mountain on October 1st yet the Tangent Universe doesn't start until midnight on October 2nd. Why would time loop round to before the start of the Tangent Universe? Another thing is wouldn't you find it a little amusing if you woke up half way up a mountain. Surely that is a better explanation for him laughing.
Another huge flaw in this theory is if it was true the Universe would never be in any danger. Everytime Donnie failed the 28 days would just restart. This goes completely gainst the PoTT and makes the whole thing quite pointless.
Another point in this theory is the characters like Mrs Pomeroy, Grandma Death, Dr. Thurman all seem to have some kind of inside knowledge and a sense of what's going, like they have done this before. Well yes they do but not because they have done this several times before, it's because they are the Manipulated Living. There behaviour may be irrational or bizarre as they are trying to guide the Living Receiver to return the Artifact. They subconsciously behave in the necessary way in order for Donnie to succeed.
@Ringo Seed
took the words right outta my mouth.
Now go suck a fuck!
Donnie Darko to me is the savior that was chosen by god to keep his master plan going, the movie was his journey figuring this out. There are a lot of key points that suggest this to me, eg: When Dr Thurman says "Is the search for god absurd" English Teacher "Deus Ex Machina" then being able to see the future . At the end where he resurrects Grechen he purges her of sin and erases all memory of him from her , he performs many miracles during the movie, travels through portals, speeds up time, can see gods predestined paths, and many others. At the end many debate that there is no reason for him to die but he has chosen to, because he figures out gods master plan and accepts it. That goes back to the Dr Monnitoff scene where he says "If we were able to see our destinies, manifest themselves visually, then we would be given a choice to betray our destinies, the mere fact that this choice exist would make all preformed destinies come to an end" Donnie responds "Not if you travel within God's channel". It's one of the best movies to me because Donnie is a student not bound by religion or science so he can subscribe to both god and science through time travel philosophy, he fights for what is right and asks the real questions in life to later figure them out. At the end when he returns to PU he looks at the twister and says "I'm going home", this scene is actually beautiful to me because in between the twister and the cloud there's a beautiful light, it's like heaven. To me there's little chance he's talking about going home to his family in suburbia, which also bypasses the fear of being alone since he knows when he dies he will go back to heaven, his home . That's how I have taken the movie I'm agnostic like the character and is in search for some answers no one really knows, I'm not religious, not a scientist, just a normal guy. The first time I saw the movie I had little knowledge of what was going on, watching it again at a older age made the story richer. With that being said, see you fuck asses.
I think the main explanation from this site fits best and the time-loop theory as written on the listed link has some flaws. Time-loop as an extension of the main explanation is however possible in my opinion:
1) Everything in the main explanation is included as a basis for this addition although some of it will be replaced, particularly things directly regarding backwards time travel.
2) Donnie waking up on the mountain laughing is just because he was sleepwalking. He was already in therapy, already sleepwalking . . . just because he was a bit messed up although not to the point of seeing rabbits.
3) The timeline in the Tangent Universe runs from when the Jet Engine begins to fall from the sky, as in maybe a minute or so before it crashes through the roof of Donnies house.
I think the best way to start this extension is by asking: What happens when a Manipulated Dead travels through the fourth dimension, back in time? For example, when Frank dies and returns as Dead-Frank to wake Donnie at the start of the film. Does Frank return to the same Tangent Universe as a copy of himself? Both Frank and Dead-Frank in the same Tangent.
The same could be true of Gretchen. Is the Gretchen Donnie meets a copy of a Gretchen? Or are some of the times he meets her a copy and some not. She goes to English class claiming she had been put in the wrong one. Could the "real" Gretchen be in a different class or even attend a different school? That is entirely speculative, meant to show it as plausible.
Another explanation, and the basis for my loop-extension theory could be that in going back in time, any Manipulated Dead create a copy of the Tangent Universe. This copy need not cause further problems like the first Tangent did, although it would not necessarily matter if they did. This would remove the paradox of causality should multiple copies of people (dead or alive) encounter each other. It would also explain why Dead Frank may have knowledge of his previous or alternate selves, being from a different Tangent himself and possibly meeting another Dead Frank in his original Tangent.
The Primary Universe would end when the first Tangent collapses. But since a Manipulated Dead would have the knowledge of this, and the ability to travel back in time within the Tangent (or a copy thereof) then it would surely follow that before the end of the particular Tangent, any Manipulated Dead, quite literally anyone who dies in the Tangent, or indeed all of them, would travel back in time to stop the destruction of the Primary Universe. This means that the Universe is in danger but only if all of the Manipulated Dead give up and do not go back in time. Most likely the artefact will eventually be returned, if nothing else then by Infinite Monkey Theorem.
So say unknown Manipulated Dead, "Steve", "Jeff" and "Bob" could all travel back in time, creating three Tangent copies. In one of these copies Bob could kill Frank as a means of creating a Manipulated Dead who was closer to Donnie. Frank then through a series of Tangent-Copies manipulates events each time such that he eventually creates an Ensurance Trap where Donnie kills Frank. Or Frank could have died anyway in the Original Tangent.
This theory requires that either both Frank and Gretchen have come from a previous Tangent to the Film-Tangent, either appearing to Donnie whilst their Film-Tangent selves are not nearby, or Gretchen could kill her Film-Tangent self (who then could go back in time, creating another Tangent copy in case the Film-Tangent fails). Alternatively Film-Tangent Gretchen could be a Manipulated Living, when she dies in the film she would become a Manipulated Dead and go back in time, but this would create a Copy-Tangent. Manipulated Dead have no control over the Tangent they die in until linearly after they die.
Manipulated Dead would not have to go all the way back in a new Tangent. Frank could have done the eventual Film Tangent in stages, getting one part right then going back only so far and doing fine adjustments to future timelines. A Manipulated Dead could also pass through many Tangent timelines in this way. So Dead-Frank could have travelled through countless timelines.
But in the Film Tangent, Donnie returns the Artefact. How will this affect things? Any Copy-Tangent would need to send the Artefact back to the Prime Universe. The greatest problem with this is that there could be many Donnies in many Tangents, all of whom could end up sending the Artefact back. Thousands of Jet Engines falling from the sky in the Prime Tangent, this might not break the 4th dimension mechanics but would confuse the hell out of everyone in the Prime Tangent.
Quantum Mechanics may have the answer to this, something I am not an expert on. My limited knowledge of it comes from asking a question regarding the Many Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics (Hugh Everett, father of Eels frontman Mark Oliver Everett). My question upon seeing this was that if each possible action (time travel or not) creates a parallel universe, where does the energy come from? There is limited energy so is that not too many universes? Upon searching for an answer to this question I found that it was best answered by another question . . . "What you are really asking is surely that is too many quantum states?". This is where I get a little lost as I have not looked at the intense mathematics which would back this up. I have however done some mathematics with n-dimensional vectors. I think what it is saying is that like Electrons can be "everywhere at once", particles could appear across multiple universes at once, creating different outcomes in those universes, but with the same particles. Your atoms could be inside a star in some other universe.
How this affects Donnie Darko is that setting the Jet Engine to appear as it does in the Prime Universe could be done by multiple Donnies without creating multiple engines, assuming the time travel experienced by the various people is actually caused by altered quantum states. Again I am not an expert in this so I may have it wrong, an answer from someone who actually knows about such things would be interesting, to me at least.
It would also follow that there would be more than one Prime Universe, each of which capable of creating and being destroyed by Tangent Universes.
I know this theory will raise a lot of questions, but I think it does does provide a platform for explaining perhaps not time-looping, but time or tangent-cloning, which would explain Dead-Frank going through multiple timelines without breaking much of what the main explanation of this site offers.
Why did Donnie wake up on top of the mountain on October 1st knowing that the episode doesn't start until October 2nd? I mean I don't wake up every now and then on top of a mountain. So why does a normal teenager wake up on to of a mountain before Frank and the whole PoTT starts?
My theory was that Donnie was supposed to die on October 2. Over the 28 days, he played out things that never meant to happen. The fact that he was dead meant that he wasn't supposed to be here and that it changed the balance of the laws of nature. The fact that after the 28 days, none of the things that occurred should have occurred. Gretchen was a part of him that was good and kind. Frank was the evil part of himself. There are holes in this as well, but in some areas it does work. I watched it again this weekend and payed more attention to the movie. At the end of the movie it all resets and the laws of nature go back to the way it was meant to be with the characters none the wiser or some having some knowledge a feeling of what they experienced the last 28 days.
i like kids
my mind is just thinking about this story..
this is a very good website
Very nice website. It is well put together. I enjoy it.
I still pull for the repeating loop a bit. Frank says his name was the name of his father, and his father before him, which could allude to him having gone through the events of the film at least two times before. The collapse of a tangential universe would be the restart of the loop, and the primary universe would be in danger as it would not be able to continue past the events of the TU.
Not quite sure if this has been pointed out before, but there seems to be another flaw with the looping tangent theory:
It states that Frank has travelled in time from the previous TU to the current TU, but that would mean there would have been no Frank in the first TU, which kinda alters the entire storyline of the TU.
Of course, this does assume every TU features the same sequence of events with only minor differences leading to the failure of the Living Receiver, but it just feels like a flaw in the theory.
