What Affleck and Cranston Might Bring to the Next Superman Movie
The Internet lit up this past weekend with the news that Ben Affleck would play Batman in the sequel to Man of Steel, teaming up, presumably, with Henry Cavill's Superman. Now there are rumors that Bryan Cranston could be cast as Lex Luthor (though these appear to be unsubstantiated).
YouTuber Solyent Brak 1 couldn't wait, and crafted this teaser trailer using Man of Steel clips and assorted films (and one very popular TV show) featuring Affleck and/or Cranston. The only thing missing, really, is a shot of the two together from Argo. Even so, this is nicely done.

Hi Smoky,
Sooo glad to see a Pick from you again, congrats on getting this one featured on the front of the LB web page!!! It's sooo beautiful, I love sedums – don't know if the ones called "hens and chicks" qualify, the ones that grow between the crevices of rocks and come in many colors from green with red tipped petals, to mauve-lavender, they look like little flowers because of the way their fleshy leaves grow!!! How are you doing???

text: on Aug 12, 2013 @ 3:17 PMAug 12, 2013 @ 3:17 PM PublishedNew York Yankees - TeamReportMLB Team Report - New York Yankees - INSIDE PITCHDoes three straight blown saves mean it's time for the Yankees to start worrying about Mariano Rivera? Not according to Joe Girardi or his teammates. Or Rivera himself.Still, it's worth noting that on Sunday, the Yankees witnessed something they had never seen in Rivera's 19 years -- he hadn't blown three consecutive save chances until he allowed solo home runs to Miguel Cabrera and Victor Martinez in the ninth inning. The Yankees won, 5-4, on Brett Gardner's walk-off homer.Girardi, asked if he was concerned about the 43-year-old closer, held his thumb and forefinger together. Zero, in other words."My buddy Paul O'Neill would ask me, 'Can a man forget how to hit in a week?' and I'd say no," Girardi said. "And you can't forget how to pitch in a week. He just had a bad week."Rivera is not fretting, either, perhaps because he knows that every rocky stretch in his career has resulted in some ultimately false predictions of his demise."No, I don't worry about it," he said. "We always have this kind of conversation -- early, late, middle of the season. But it happens. We have to continue to work."Still, the Yankees bullpen has been a team strength much of the season and it failed Sunday. David Robertson allowed a homer to Brayan Pena in the eighth inning to allow the Tigers within two runs, setting up Rivera's ninth. Rivera has now allowed five runs and seven hits -- three of those homers -- in his last four innings, an 11.25 ERA.Both homer balls to Cabrera and Martinez were mistakes, Rivera said. "Yeah, I left the ball up. Martinez, that ball was just laying flat and also with Miguel," he said. "You're facing professional hitters and you don't put it where you need to, you're going to get hit."The Yankees hope this is just temporary. If Rivera's track record is any indication, it is."He spoils us all," said Andy Pettitte. "Any time you see him blow one, much less three, it's shocking. I don't think it's going to faze him or faze anyone in this locker room. He'll go out there and when we have the lead we'll feel extremely confident."-----------------------------------------------MLB Team Report - New York Yankees - NOTES, QUOTESRECORD: 59-57STREAK: Won onePAST 10 GAMES: 4-6NEXT: Yankees (Hiroki Kuroda, 10-7, 2.45) vs. Angels (Garret Richards, 3-4, 4.20)PLAYER NOTES:--3B Alex Rodriguez described his current state as a work in progress and said it would take 40-to-50 at-bats before he gets in the full swing of things. Rodriguez hit his 647th career home run Sunday and first since Sept. 14. He also added an RBI single and is 5-for-19 since returning from the DL Monday.--RHP Mariano Rivera blew a save for the third straight game, marking the first time that ever happened. He also allowed two home runs in a game for the fifth time in his career and first time ever in a save opportunity.--LHP Andy Pettitte allowed one run and eight hits but threw 101 pitches in 4 1/3 innings. He allowed the run in the first inning, marking his eighth straight start of doing so.--LF Alfonso Soriano batted sixth for the first time and also reached 2,000 hits with a fourth-inning home run. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, he is one of four players whose major league debuts were with the Yankees to reach 2,000 hits. The others are Derek Jeter, Bernie Williams and Don Mattingly.--3B Kevin Youkilis made an appearance in the Yankee clubhouse but really had little to report about his back that underwent surgery in June. He said he has spent the last four weeks rehabbing in New York after spending the first three recovering in California.--RHP Dellin Betances was promoted from Triple-A Scranton/ Wilkes Barre to give the Yankees an extra arm, especially one that can pitch multiple innings. Betances did that in seven of his last 10 appearances and that is part of a 30-inning scoreless streak he had in his last 17 appearances in the minors. When Betances pitches, he will be the 49th player to appear for the Yankees. He was with the team in May but did not get into a game.--3B David Adams was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes Barre again. Adams was hitting .194 with the Yankees this season.--RHP Hiroki Kuroda is undefeated in day games but 5-7 in night games. Kuroda's earned run average after dark is 2.78 but in those starts, the Yankees have scored three runs or less 15 times. The most recent instance was Tuesday in Chicago when Kuroda allowed three runs and nine hits in seven innings of a 3-2 loss. Kuroda is 2-2 with a 2.67 ERA in five starts against the Angels. Both of his starts as a Yankee against the Angels have been at home. He pitched eight scoreless innings in New York's 2012 home opener on April 13, 2012 and then allowed five runs and eight hits in 7 1/3 innings without getting a decision in a 6-5 win on July 14, 2012.QUOTE TO NOTE: "That's the first time I've ever hit a walk-off home run. It might be the last. I've had a couple of seeing eye singles up the middle and through the left side but never a home run like that." -- OF Brett Gardner, after his fifth career walk-off hit and second of the series gave the Yankees a 5-4 win over Detroit Sunday.-----------------------------------------------MLB Team Report - New York Yankees - ROSTER REPORTMEDICAL WATCH:--SS Derek Jeter (strained right quadriceps) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to Aug. 3. He missed the first half of the season due to a broken left ankle, got hurt in his first game back, and now is on the DL for the third time this year. He likely will head to the team's complex in Tampa after their current homestand ends Aug. 15 to continue his rehab.--3B Kevin Youkilis (lumbar back strain) went on the 15-day disabled list June 14, and he was transferred to the 60-day DL on July 7. It's his second trip to the DL this season because of the same injury. Youkilis, who missed 30 games in April and May, experienced numbness in his foot and calf when he woke up June 14, likely the result of a nerve issue. He had surgery to repair a herniated disk in his back on June 20, and he will be out of action until late August or early September. He said Aug. 11 he is approximately at week seven of his recovery and his surgeon told him the fastest anyone has returned from the same operation is 12 weeks.--RHP David Phelps (strained right forearm) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to July 5. He made rehab starts July 23 and July 30 for Double-A Trenton, but he was scratched from his Aug. 4 start with soreness in the forearm. A new minor strain was revealed, prompting the Yankees to shut him down for 14 more days.--RHP Michael Pineda (shoulder surgery) will be shut down for 7-10 days after feeling stiffness in his shoulder after his start Aug. 2. An MRI revealed no damage.--C Francisco Cervelli (fractured right hand, stress reaction in right elbow) went on the 15-day disabled list April 27, and he was transferred to the 60-day DL on May 1. He was diagnosed with the elbow injury July 3. He was moved to the restricted list Aug. 5 when he received a 50-game suspension as part of the Biogenesis probe. Cervelli visited Dr. James Andrews on Aug. 5 and was told he will not require surgery.--DH Travis Hafner (strained right rotator cuff) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to July 27.--3B Luis Cruz (sprained right knee) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to July 23.--OF Zoilo Almonte (left ankle sprain) went on the 15-day disabled list July 20. He was sent to the Yankees' complex in Tampa.--1B Mark Teixeira (right wrist inflammation) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to June 16, and he was transferred to the 60-day DL on July 6. He had season-ending surgery July 2 since the torn tendon sheath suffered in March never healed. He is wearing a wrist cast. He said he hopes to start his rehab at the end of August. Teixeira said he will take it slow since he won't play this year.ROTATION:LHP CC SabathiaRHP Hiroki KurodaRHP Phil HughesLHP Andy PettitteRHP Ivan NovaBULLPEN:RHP Mariano Rivera (closer)RHP David RobertsonRHP Joba ChamberlainLHP Boone LoganRHP Preston ClaiborneRHP Shawn KelleyRHP Adam WarrenRHP Dellin BetancesCATCHERS:Chris StewartAustin RomineINFIELDERS:1B Lyle Overbay2B Robinson CanoSS Eduardo Nunez3B Alex RodriguezINF Jayson NixOUTFIELDERS:LF Vernon WellsCF Curtis GrandersonRF Ichiro SuzukiDH Alfonso SorianoOF Brett Gardner

Gold Has Proven Amazingly Resilient Despite Recent Years' Extreme Headwinds [View article]
<<"Resilient" is an absolutely "remarkable" way of describing the performance of gold in the last couple of years.>>
I admire such understated restraint!
However, not sure about this <"Eastern" debt, lately> bit you mention. In this matter Devil 777 has a point. To my understanding USA and Europe collectively owe China several hundred billion - or is it a few odd trillion? - in debt. Most Eastern peoples live within their means. In sharp contrast all Western peoples live beyond their means, constantly borrowing money they do not have nor generate, their Govts constantly borrowing by selling debt they are not sure how or when to repay. (Why do you think China is quietly converting its USD reserves into gold?) Check out the balance of payments between USA/China - who owes whom how much. If China decides to dump the USD overnight or call for all its debt to be repaid at short notice, USA will be worse than Greece, or as another SA writer put it quaintly, 'less than zero'!
To the author: I do admire your work, but I really struggle to understand how you view recent international events as head winds for gold.
Can you please specify what head winds we have other than a strong US $? Amply off set by QE in USA and EU, Greece, Ukraine, mid East shenanigans, a seemingly topping US market with shrinking earnings , Chinese stock market collapse, .... all of which are supposed to be tail winds to further gold price. Instead, gold is sinking continuously.
'Forever Gold' a-la Goldfinger is a nice motif to live by if one's investment horizon is 50-100 yrs. Those looking at shorter time frames to intelligently invest in gold better pay heed to Avi Gilburt. More than a yr back right here on SA he unambiguously said gold GLD will hit <105, likely sub 100 before any real turn around. So far he has been proven right.

This Week In Pharma: Xoma's Big Day And Dyax Vs. BioCryst Vs. Shire - Who Will Own HAE? [View article]
To what end, now? After the horse has bolted the stable? XOMA is done for, for the immediate future, so it can wait. Better the bird in hand - BCRX, et al where inputs can still be acted upon.
Why heckle the author with semantics? Let him get on with his research than waste time justifying syntax he uses. Surely you understand what he meant to say, its just a stylized way of expressing feelings/thoughts.
Anyway, XOMA is burnt toast for now and it takes time for the acrid smoke to clear before one can approach its corpse, let alone dissect it.Jul 31, 2015. 08:24 AM | 1 Like |Link to Comment
Evidence-Based Investing: 5 Easy Reasons Why You Should Copiously Buy Gilead Sciences [View article]
Hello, 7777777 angels (there's always a risk of missing the odd 7 here!)
1. Steep discount in Developed world: If the medicine retail price is 84K and Japan (amongst the most developed) buys at 32K, is that not a steep discount? If EU also has similar pricing around $22,500 discounted from 84K, what would you call it?
2. ROW: Many authors project income from ROW in support of their thesis for a higher stock price in the future so I to seek clarification.
If you consider GILD does not expect any revenue from ROW, tell that to the author who claims so, not me! Quote: "I have five words for the disbelievers in Gilead's growth potential: .... 5. The rest of the world."
I am neither bull nor bear in my approach; just asking to understand better. In nutshell I am suggesting that GILD profits be calculated more realistically - not at 84K/patient but closer to 25K/patient and consider profits from 2nd world countries as bonus and from 3rd world as an anomaly! If such realistic calculations still arrive at a price target of 260 in next 12m, please let me know so I can break the piggy bank!!
Thanks!Jul 31, 2015. 08:02 AM | 0 Likes |Link to Comment
Gilead Celebrates Busted Payer Budgets [View article]
Bobcat9 has put it succinctly; will not repeat those points. Sadly, I do not see one reply or a single rebuttal to the sundry questions posed here to you; or a lucid defence of your argument supported by documentary evidence that GILD's medicine is costlier than other alternative lines of treatment available - such as a liver transplant and other temporary alliviatives - prior to introduction of a confirmed cure by GILD.
If the number of clicks is your primary objective, here's an equally controversial but more novel writing idea - How much are the middlemen such as Express Scripts (its senior Management and their ilk) costing the patient/tax payer? In my lexicon there is a befitting synonym to middleman - parasite.Jul 30, 2015. 10:13 PM | 7 Likes |Link to Comment
Evidence-Based Investing: 5 Easy Reasons Why You Should Copiously Buy Gilead Sciences [View article]
As I see it, the developed world outside USA has already secured a good price by way of steep discounts at the cost of GILD's bottom line. This is being further eaten into by the competition.
ROW (the rest of the world, as you put it) enjoys this product virtually free by way of extreme (>95%?) subsidy by GILD, not to forget generic or 'unlicensed' production by those countries who do not recognise GILD's IP rights and patents.
So the question remains - can any of the GILD experts quantify future profits outside USA that appears to support such optimism?Jul 30, 2015. 10:09 AM | 2 Likes |Link to Comment

I am a nobody and my views are of no consequence. But maybe you would like to read what an esteemed and respected personage from the Establishment that bashes gold on a daily basis has to say about gold? Maybe it will help you understand better?

Hello again, Mike!
Author's reply » "yeti786, sounds like you'd have the makings of an article idea."
Me, I shoot/write about serious fluff - nature in the high Himalayas above 5000 meters, the jungles of Brazil, Andaman & Nicobar Is., the Danube delta, etc.
Mercenary topics like these - I am happy to offer rights on this idea free to the likes of Bret Jensen, Chris deMuth, Jason Napodano and a few others whose names do not readily come to mind but are very competent and thorough analysts in the bio tech field.
But seriously, this topic should be covered in a series covering those stocks with most potential there in EU. As an editor with SA, surely you can identify and nominate suitable experts to do a far better job than I ever will.
Some names from my casual reading: GNFT, Galapagos, Ablynx, MDXHealth, Celyad, Innate pharma, Cellectis, Adocia, Erytech.
Once the US $ starts slipping against the Euro they will prove real gems for Bret to add to his collection!
The best to all!Jul 27, 2015. 11:18 AM | 0 Likes |Link to Comment
"Gold is for people who understand and are part of history; a difficult proposition for many people who don't have one...."
and your response: 'gold is for losers. price is truth.'
Kindly read more carefully and understand what I wrote - Gold is a store of value (not a trading instrument) spanning generations and retaining purchasing power.
Current gold price is inconsequential. Price is not the truth; it is ephemeral, transient. Even as temporary changes in its price can be a subject of mercenary manipulation, its value as a medium of exchange remains constant.
The purchasing power of gold, its steadfast ability to retain value has been demonstrated over several millennia of history. If you look at price action maybe you want to look at gold in other currencies than US$ and explain its rise to us?
No other medium of exchange has such global acceptability or has survived so long. Neither will paper currencies; like peak oil, we are nearing peak Dollar/Euro.Jul 27, 2015. 09:39 AM | 3 Likes |Link to Comment
"the amount of stupid statements (as if there facts) about gold never cease to amaze me."
Myopic US foreign policy echoes many uneducated views on gold here. Gold investments are generational in their life spans, not a subject of weekly/monthly pronouncements and graph tracings. Gold is for people who understand and are part of history; a difficult proposition for many people who don't have one....
"You really think it's a good idea to do like what a desperate and long dysfunctional country is doing?"
Even a simpleton knows that holding of a currency over which one has no control and especially belonging to an inimical traditional opponent is not in the best interests of any country. Why should Russia and China hold US $ and US debt? To allow Americans to continue their blissful life swamped in debt without any seeming moral will or inclination or responsibility to repay? Which they can one day just default on, like Greece, leaving the world who bought their debt to suffer their gluttony? 'Hair cut' they call it, what an euphemism for financial immorality of high order! And the insufferable cheek to point fingers at others?
Gold will buy Russia/China/Iran and even any one of us just about anything anywhere on Earth at just about the same value in real terms. 5000 yrs of human history stands witness to this statement. And the US Dollar in comparison? For the cynic I suggest you see some real graphs on the real and relative value of gold and US$ last few hundred yrs.... no, hold it; that's more history than the USD can cope with, try a hundred yrs instead. Should do.
The average person with limited vision is dumping weak currencies in favour of the king of all currencies - the $. Those with greater foresight are dumping this king of currencies for real money - Gold. That's all there is to it.Jul 26, 2015. 03:36 PM | 8 Likes |Link to Comment
Newmont Mining Stock Falls Despite Strong Second Quarter Results; Is This A Buying Opportunity? [View article]Jul 26, 2015. 06:49 AM | 3 Likes |Link to Comment
Author's reply » Thanks to everyone for your comments. I was especially interested in observations about relative P/Es and growth expectations in the biotech majors.
I think it is high time European biotech stocks were selectively put under the microscope. They exhibit similar advancement in research at far lower/realistic evaluation. Those EU biotechs planning to debut IPOs in USA or market their products in USA in the near future should make good starting points. Plus, the ongoing European QE should help secure better returns.Jul 25, 2015. 12:54 PM | 3 Likes |Link to Comment

Sentiment on gold sours further [View news story]
Do people know why the mighty US military never beat the frugal Afghan Mujahaddin earlier and are not making much headway (except on paper scribed by US sponsored Media) against the ISIS now? The Mujahaddin did not rely on EW to wage war, whereas the US military are sitting ducks in their fancy MBT tracks without C3 and EW support. The Mujahaddin hugged earth, the US military were all over, (mostly in the air), but not where it really mattered - on the ground, physically.
Morale of the story - to win, get physical. This applies as much to gold. And don't please tell me it won't help because the big sharks play by different rules, blah-blah.... (If you wish to play by their rules that use paper gold - which is easily manipulated - you will never win.) Change the rules to the extent you can. Change the key rule - refuse to play with all paper gold derivatives. Buy/Sell only physical. Change begins from within; change will happen only if each one of us decides to start first, now. Not wait like sheep to follow the herd, as and when it happens. If each one of us buys only physical (in personal capacity or a manager of funds invested in gold/silver), manipulation will not prove as effective
Unfortunately, most people do not understand the essential nature of gold - as a store of value over a long period of time, not a short term trading instrument.Jul 25, 2015. 03:21 AM | 5 Likes |Link to Comment

How-To Guides
Life overwhelming? Pressured by the constant need to look good? When you're busy everything needs to be done . . . now. Here are eight super-fast ways to fix things when you're time-strapped. Buckle up!
1) Your eyes are puffy but you don't have time for a mask
Reach for the caffeine - not the "cup of" kind but the type found in eye serums such as Clarins' Defining Eye Lift, $85, or Garnier's Youthful Radiance Caffeine Eye Roll-On, $17.49. Both products help to reduce puffiness, boost microcirculation and brighten the eye area.
2) You are off to the beach and have forgotten to apply sunblock
One of the most common reasons people ignore sunscreen is the time it takes for it to be rubbed in and absorbed. Solution? A spray. Neutrogena's Fresh Cooling Body Mist Sunblock SPF70, $22.99, is an ultra fine weightless mist that is quickly soaked up by the skin. Coola's Pina Colada Sunscreen Spray SPF35, $55, is an organic option infused with antioxidants and devoid of any stickiness.
3) You can't be bothered with eye cream
As long as your eyes aren't extremely sensitive, any SPF-free moisturiser - even those containing retinol - can be applied around the eye. So, if you are rummaging around in the dark and can't find that little pot of eye gel, substitute your night cream instead.
4) Add instant glamour
Reach for the bronzer. The makeup product with perhaps the scariest reputation (the threat of orange streaks across the cheekbones is enough to put most people off), bronzer is actually surprisingly easy to use once you get a little practice in. It also makes you look brighter, healthier and more vibrant. Using a brush, sweep a subtle product like Estee Lauder's Bronze Goddess Soft Shimmer Bronzer, $72, around the perimeter of your face, across your temples, down the sides (extending inwards over your blusher) and down under your jaw bone into your neck.
5) You have two minutes to do your face
You may be short on time but you don't have to leave the house bare-faced. Reach for a multi-purpose base like Za's Total Hydration BB Cream, $15, which protects, moisturises, covers, conceals and absorbs excess oil. Add a sweep of a grunty lash-building mascara (Shiseido's Perfect Mascara Full Definition, $51, does the job nicely) and a tinted lip balm like Clinique's Chubby Stick Intense Moisturising Lip Colour Balm, $40, a crayon-shaped balm with full-coverage lip colour.
6) You need to shrink a blemish - fast
When there isn't enough time for salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide to work their magic (up to a week), try applying a cream with 1 per cent hydrocortisone. But don't be stingy; the more you put on and the longer you leave it to absorb the better the result.
7) You've run out of moisturiser
It's only a temporary solution but a gentle, creamy face wash can keep your skin hydrated for a day. Shea butter, glycerine and oatmeal are some of the ingredients to look out for. A face wash such as QV's Intensive Moisturising Cleanser, $20.99, is soap-free and will leave a hydrating film on your skin, protecting it all day. Elizabeth Arden's Visible Difference Gentle Hydrating Cleanser, $45, also contains powerful humectants to attract and hold moisture.
8) You have three minutes to do your hair
Give yourself some glamour by rubbing a silicone-based styling balm through your hair from the mid-section to ends. Joico's K-PAK Protect & Shine Serum, $31, contains a keratin silicone complex to control frizz, add gloss and protect against further damage. It also adds definition, which helps your "do" look more "done".

Cellular Conversations
By John Upledger, DO, OMM
I've been called a lot of things in my career, from visionary to, well, almost everything else. Fortunately, I prefer to listen to my Inner Wisdom, which inspires me to focus on the possibilities - no matter how unusual they might sound.
For instance, in 2003, I published a book called Cell Talk.Essentially, it outlines my voyage into the cellular memory of the body - and how manual therapists can tap into this body intelligence to facilitate healing.
I recently received a letter from Ziporah Hildebrandt, a writer and flower-essence therapist in Massachusetts. She's a client of Charles Gilliam, LMT, CST-D, and has been using CranioSacral Therapy to help achieve better health and well-being.
Here's what Ziporah had to say about her experiences using cell-talk techniques:
So, call me crazy if you want. What can I say? Set your positive intentions and believe in the endless potential of the human body. Things just might work out.

When in Florence... thsi is something that can;t be missed. But, I must admit, part of the fun was also trying to take a photo without getting caught by the guards. LOL
Exhausted after a busy day of sightseeing and having seen the copy outside the Palazzo Vecchio we nearly passed on seeing the original but decided that while in Florence we HAD to see it. So glad we did, no words can adequately describe what an absolute master of marble Michelangelo was and David is the pinnacle of his masterwork. An absolute must!
I am not a particular art expert, I consider myself an average person, initiated not more than ordinary people in art history, or what so ever.But I have to say David is a breathtaking work of art!!! It is so overwelming and inspiring, II composed a poem near it.Michelangelo's genius cannot be doubted, but David is more than a statue: it has a life on its own! And it's just there, you can touch it, feel, see it! All for you! :)Loved it, as much as I loved the city that hosts it, Florence, my favourite city in all the wide world!
everyone gotta see "David" yes... its the only thing to see "david" but its a masterpiece of fine art.. and sculptor from Michagelango...very easy location and walking distance from downtown Florence... other parts of the museum are nice and enjoyable.. but its all about the DavidFYI - no photos are allowed
When I first walked into the Accademia, which serves as both a gallery and a school for aspiring artists, I saw the famous statue of David placed strategically at the end of a row of Michelangelo's incomplete sculptures. It looks exactly like the photos available in textbooks and on the internet;however,the mastery represented in the piece can only be appreciated while standing next to it. If you can connect with Bernardo, schedule the tour with his colorful commentary about the statue and the historical signficance of the statue. There is a fee of 6 euros to enter the gallery. Other artwork is housed in the Academia, but our tour only included the examination of "DAVID." The lifelike detail is phenomenal.

Will try to restore night running of trains: Sahay
Jamshedpur: Union Tourism Minister Subodh
Kant Sahay Tuesday said he will make all possible efforts to
restore running of trains during night between Kharagpur-
Tatanagar-Rourkela section.
The railways have suspended running of trains during
night (between 11pm to 5am) for over a year between Kharagpur-
Tatanagar-Rourkela since the Jnaneswari express mishap on May
28 last year.
Addressing a press conference here, Sahay, who was in the
steel city to campaign in favour of Congress candidate Banna
Gupta, for the July 1 Jamshedpur parliamentary by-election,
said it was really unfortunate that movement of trains has
remained suspended for over a year.
The Union Tourism minister said it was the responsibility
of the state government to ensure security of passengers.
Sahay assured he would take up the running of night
trains at the highest level.

Pressure Cooking
Okay, I admit it: I can be a food a snob.
Even before I enrolled at the French Culinary Institute, I could be fussy about the quality of ingredients I'd use to whip up a steak salad or pasta and Bolognese for dinner. Is the meat from an organic farmer? How fresh are the greens? Which brand of pasta did my partner purchase? All this has gotten even more severe since culinary school.
Don't get me wrong, there are times I still crave Dorito chips, fast food fries or Kraft mac-and-cheese. But when more often than not, cooking for myself, friends or family has changed for good.
Friends and family joke that I'm too picky (to their benefit). But it puts pressure on me - even more these days since I'm going to culinary school. Everyone expects to be wowed and surprised. The pressure! I think other culinary students can relate.
So this weekend I'm throwing a birthday for a three-year-old boy. There will be adults (a few them serious foodies), kids under age 10 and a few of my friends and family. For the foodies, I'm feeling the pressure to plan an elaborate menu to show off what I've learned in seven months of school so far. For the kids, I want something tasty but simple that they'll actually eat.
What to do? I think I'll try to keep it simple but make sure everything I use to prepare the meal is of good quality. Maybe it does pay to be a snob sometimes.

The American P&I Club warns again that stowaways continue to hide in the ship's rudder stock recess.
The P&I Club advise its members that stowaways wait in port areas until after dark and then swim to the rudder stock, climbing it and hiding inside the recess. Having gained access to an external area of the vessel, they cannot then be easily found by the ship's crew. It has been observed that most of these vessels come from Africa in ballast and, for that reason, the rudder stock recess stays above water. However, as the vessel rolls and pitches, the stowaways are exposed to the sea.
Members are advised to take all necessary measures as part of the Ship Security Plan (SSP) in accordance with the International Ship and Port Security (ISPS) Code compliance requirements. The ship's crew should make all efforts to check that stowaways are not hiding in the rudder stock recess, particularly when loading or discharging cargo at ports or terminals in Africa.
In general, it is the crew's first priority to check for stowaways onboard ship. However, attention should also be paid to ensure that no stowaways have accessed the rudder stock recess. Typically, the crew can only access the rudder trunk via a manhole cover fitted in the aft peak tank. Since this tank is normally in ballast and/or filled with freshwater, examination of the rudder stock during a pre-departure stowaway search is not always practical.
If access to the rudder stock recess cannot be gained via the aft peak tank, it is recommended that the crew use a small boat, such as a small rescue boat or paint raft, to check for stowaways in the rudder stock recess area. It is also recommended that Members consider installing medial gratings above the openings to the rudder compartment to prevent stowaways from gaining access to the recess area in the first place.

what rpg? if there's nothing unique about it other than the anime it's based on, then it's no suprise it didn't get over
but if this is a different genre then who knows...
this makes it sound promising as a game itself

It's on a Sony console and it's by Bandai, there's next to no hope this will come out in English.
Having a strong plot counts against its chances of getting localised; Sony have a thing against releaseing things without lots of gamplay outside Japan.
Namco Bandai aren't exactly doing well atm, especialy as regards to localising things.

^ Dude that is EXACTLY why! If you guys want Namco Bandai to bring over anything from Japan just forget it.
One Piece Unlimited Cruise Episode 1
One Piece Unlimited Cruise Episode 2
Tales of Graces
All these guys care about are Dragonball Z, Naruto and stupid cooking games seriously? What do they have for the 3DS? Some sorry racing game and Tales of the abyss. Capcom/Nintendo/Level 5 and I am sure SEGA are all on top of the new console. No 3DS Haruhi? Really?

|Wikipedia lists six Haruhi Suzumiya video games already, including a version of Day of Sagittarius III for the iPhone (the only one available in English). They seem to be mostly along the lines of visual novels or text adventures, not really RPGs as we know them.

So setting aside the reality that this will never be brought over here. . . .
IF the Japanese were willing to license this to someone for localization, are there any numbers floating about for what that would cost? I often find myself envious of the Japanese getting to have so many anime-related games while no export for us remains close to a actual corporate policy.
What exactly goes into localizing a game anyway? (Yes, I know the basics of translation and such but what does that really entail? How extensive and expensive is it?)
I mean, is localization a PSP/PS3 game like this a multi-million dollar deal or a thousands of dollars range deal?

Interview: Fullmetal Alchemist and Concrete Revolutio screenwriter Shou Aikawa
The screenwriter behind the original 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist sheds some light on that show's deeper meaning, and talks about his latest project for the fall 2015 season, Concrete Revolutio. ― Screenwriter Shou Aikawa scarcely needs an introduction; he cut his teeth during the OVA boom of the 1980s, working on titles like Angel Cop, Dangaioh, Blood Reign: Curse of the Yoma and more. As a television w...
Bubblegum Crisis: Tokyo 2040 DVD
I hope you like the '90s not only because this show is the most '90s thing ever, but also because it just doesn't have a whole lot else going for it. ― Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 definitely has an aesthetic. Now, whether it has a good aesthetic or not, that's the question. I hope you like the '90s. Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 is intensely, aggressively '90s, from its tone to its overall aesthetic to...

Aldnoah.Zero Blu-Ray Vol. 1
Earth and Mars go to war in the first volume of creator Gen Urobuchi's sci-fi action hit, now in English and loaded with extras, but is this 6-episode single release worth the investment? ― What sets people apart from each other? That's a question that gets asked almost everyday, with various answers like "color," "religion," or "country of origin" all getting tossed around. In the world of Aldnoah Z...
The Mike Toole Show -The Worst Anime of All Time
Fresh from his panel at Otakon, Mike runs down the absolute worst anime he's ever seen, and wonders what you might consider to be worse. ― Goku and Superman tangle furiously, then get caught up in a tender embrace; bystanders swarm them, holding up mobile phones to capture the moment. A massive line of kids, teenagers, and adults in an assortment of wigs, hats, and other odd clothes starts moving, it...
Tokyo Ghoul GN 2
Tokyo Ghoul's second volume slows down the pace a little to examine what happens when the line between "monster" and "human" gets a little blurry. ― One of the greatest tropes in horror literature is the fear that the monsters might look just like us. I call it a trope due to its widespread use, but it remains an effective one, and in the second volume of Tokyo Ghoul, Sui Ishida takes that device and...
The List - 6 Deadly Maids
These six maids will wait on you hand and foot, but are also quite capable of wasting some fools. PLUS: results from last week's Love Live poll and a new Pokemon poll! ― Maids, like catgirls, are an anime staple. Heck, some characters are even both. There's something alluring about the frilly dresses and sworn dedication to their "Master," even if that dedication involves killing a tavern full of gr...
Ultraman GN 1
Straight to you from 1966, it's Ultraman! Luckily you don't have to have seen the original TV show to enjoy this surprisingly non-campy sequel to the famous fighter's adventures. ― There's a good chance that readers outside of Asia aren't as familiar with Ultraman as those within it. While the 1966 show is available on DVD in English, it doesn't have the widespread recognition of, say, The Mighty Mor...

YieldMakes 10 balls
Hand full of almonds
4 or 5 prunes
Small handfull raisins
Honey to sitck together (spoonful should do it)
Recipe Directions
The ingredients are just suggestions because I didn't measure.
Put everything in a food processor and let it do it's thing.
More honey helps them stick together but makes them really sweet.
Roll into balls.
You can roll them in hemp seeds if you want but I found them a bit to nutty.
