Video: Explosive material detonated
The explosives were placed in a dump truck lined with sand and escorted by police and fire crews to an area just east of Aurora.
Authorities counter charged the material by exploding the chemicals and then placed the remains in a trench where diesel fuel was poured on top and ignited.
According to the ATF, this process burned up any explosive material that remained.
Police say samples of the material found in Holmes' apartment was taken as evidence.
Holmes is accused of barging into a crowded movie theater and shooting into the crowd. Twelve people died and 58 others were injured.

About Snowshoes for Hiking and Trail Use:
Everyone should go snowshoeing at some point in their life, there is no experience quite like it. It's also the closest I have ever come to walking on water, except for the time I went ice fishing. Snowshoes work by distributing your weight over a larger surface area, thus allowing you to safely hike across areas that have experience deep snowfalls. I bring my snowshoes with me everywhere I go, just in case there is sudden climatic shift (we're overdue for one).
Snowshoeing is a great way for hikers and runners to stay active in the wintertime. Snowshoes are also ideal for tricking people into thinking that there is an abominable snowman on the loose, or maybe just a gigantic snowshoe hare. I miss my gigantic snowshoe hare, it was even more fun to ride him than it is to go snowshoeing, which is still pretty fun.
Snowshoes have been around for thousands of years but the advances in technology that go into making them today makes me believe that one day snowshoe technology will be so advanced that man will be able to snowshoe across the surface of Uranus.
So the moral of the story is that you don't have giant snowshoe hare so you should probably get yourself a pair of snowshoes for going on awesome winter adventures. If you come across my gigantic hare in your journeys don't worry he is friendly and responds to "Duchess". Try to lure him back to me using carrots. He loves carrots.

Four-hours into the 2012 NBA Draft, the Knicks' name was finally called. With the 48th overall pick, the New York Knicks selected Kostas Papanikolaou.
This was a head-scratching pick for many Knicks fans, as Scott Machado and Darius Johnson-Odom were both still on the board. Machado and Johnson-Odom both filled immediate needs in back-up point guard and shooting guard, but the Knicks' greek scout had his way.
Papanikolaou has spent the last two years playing for Olympiacos in the Euroleague along with Giorgos Printezis, another European the Knicks possess the rights to. While many people have said wonderful things about Papanikolaou, you won't see him in the United States anytime soon. If the Knicks buyout his contract, he can come for the 2013-2014 season, or if they wait, he can come for the 2014-2015 season, aka, after Melo and Stoudemire's deals are up.
Papanikolaou stands at 6'8″ and weighs 230 pounds. He's 21 years old and will likely be 23 by the time he joins the NBA. He's a small forward and was projected to go 40th in Draft Express' mock draft. Draft Express has also listed him as the #1 international prospect for players born in 1990.
Papanikolaou is an average athlete, but has superb fundamentals and feel for the game. He works hard on defense and has a nice shot on offense. Last season, Papanikolaou knocked down 39% of his catch-and-shoot opportunities. Aside from aggressive defense and good shooting, Papanikolaou also brings great leadership.
Luka Bassin, International Scout and Coach, said that Papanikolaou "could be the steal of the draft."
John Hollinger, who seemingly has never said anything positive relating to the Knicks, is a "big fan of Knicks taking Papanikolau at 48."
Kostas Papanikolaou seems to be a talented player, but because of the fact that he cannot immediately come to the United States and help out the Knicks make me a bit weary of the pick. Time will tell.
Here's some video:

February BozemanLUG Meeting AnnouncementSubmitted by Scott Dowdle on Fri, 2008-02-15 09:55. BozemanLUG
Rusty Conover volunteered to give a presentation this month.Here's the title and description he provided:
Using Linux-based Cloud Computing to achieve scalable web hosting
Web sites are becoming bigger users of bandwidth every day so its getting harder to build an infrastructure that is scalable enough to handle serving thousands of visitors in parallel, especially when they all want to stream your videos on their high-bandwidth cable modems.
To do this you're probably going to pay a lot of money for a large internet connection that will sit idle most of the time along with all of the servers you'll need to fill that pipe. It would sure be great to have that infrastructure without having to pay for it, physically build it and then run it. The great thing is you don't have to anymore.
I will explain how I have solved this scaling problem using Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) to allow InfoGears to have bandwidth on demand and achieve needed scalability for our applications and client websites without a large effort in a extremely cost effective manner.
I'll explain how to use Apache 2.2, BIND and some Perl to make everything work together and result in a solution that is simple to use, scalable and reliable. So if your interested in how to lower your hosting costs, decrease the load on your web servers or just how to prepare to handle things when your videos go viral this will be a presentation for you.
Wow, that sounds very interesting. Please pass this along to anyone outside of the BozemanLUG who you think might be interested.
Dell Promotes Linux on the DesktopSubmitted by Scott Dowdle on Tue, 2008-02-12 12:11. Dell | videos
Want to know why Dell is offering Linux on desktops and laptops for home and small business? They've made a video.
I like how they say that Linux is easier to use in some cases than MacOS and Windows... and in some cases not. They don't do too bad of a job.
Kernel 2.6.17 - 2.6.24 Security FlawSubmitted by Scott Dowdle on Sat, 2008-02-09 21:21. Kernel | security
Just so you are aware... two days ago a bug was announced in Linux kernels 2.6.17 and above... that will give a local user root access. Here's info with the exploit code:
I have verified that the exploit compiles and works. I was able to get root on stock Fedora, RHEL and CentOS machines running the 2.6.18 or above kernels. Supposedly all distros running a 2.6.17 or later kernel are affected... even those running with the grsecurity patches.
I was unable to get root on an OpenVZ patched kernel but the exploit did cause a kernel panic that locked the machine I tried it on. I didn't want to crash any more machines so I didn't try any more. I've heard (but have not verified) that Linux-Vserver is affected on both the host node and inside of containers although exploits done within containers only get root of the container and are still trapped inside of it. Your milage may vary. Kernels prior to 2.6.17 are not affected. I hope vendors have fixes for this RSN... although I have heard that the current fix is not complete.
Update: The bug got fixed upstream late Sunday... and has found its way into a number of distro updates including Debian, rPath, Fedora, and PCLinuxOS. Red Hat, after the QA process, just released this morning (Tuesday). It seems that distros or kernel releases based on distro release updates will take a bit longer... CentOS and OpenVZ for example.
Update: 02/13/08 CentOS has released updated kernel packages.
BozemanLUG January 2008 Meeting NotesSubmitted by Scott Dowdle on Thu, 2008-01-31 23:50. BozemanLUG | HDHomeRun | MythTV
Wow, great meeting this evening. Jeffrey Sharkey and Justin Krohn gave a presentation on MythTV and the HDHomeRun networked HD tuner. Ten people turned out for the meeting.
First Jeff gave us the history of MythTV, a feature overview, and then he compared it to other DVR software packages that are available. He explained the frontend software and the backend software... and how they didn't have to be on the same machine. He also discussed the TV listing providers.
Justin showed MythTV in operation (both the fancy GUI frontend and the web-based version) and shared some of his recent recordings made using his HDHomeRun network tuner. He mainly uses his setup with broadcast HD and reviewed all of the sources of HD content available in the Bozeman area. I was surprised at the number and high quality of the broadcast channels available although it was pointed out that one needs a good antenna.
Justin gave a complete overview of the HDHomeRun device, how well it works with MythTV and other software and said that he was very happy with the device.
Justin gave a good overview of all of the related signal types and showed that broadcast HD includes a lot of information embedded within the signal. He had to wonder around the building with his laptop and the HDHomeRun device before he was able to find a good broadcast signal... as the EPS building is pretty good at blocking them. He was able to demonstrate broadcast HDTV on his laptop with VLC and it looked fantastic.
Fantastic job guys! Thanks!
Parallels Virtuozzo Containers 4.0 and moreSubmitted by Scott Dowdle on Thu, 2008-01-31 13:54. OpenVZ | Parallels | SWsoft | videos | Virtualization
Did you hear? A while back SWsoft decided to change its name to that of its partner company, Parallels. Parallels makes a commercial product very similar to VMware Server... but it seems to be most popular on the Mac. With SWsoft's Virtuozzo and their sponsoring of the OpenVZ project, is it any wonder that there would be a hybrid product that tries to compete with VMware ESX?
I haven't had a chance to watch the full video yet, and although it is mostly of a commercial nature, it advances discussion about Virtualization so I'm sharing it. They had it as a Windows Media file on their site and I've converted it to Flash so Linux users will have an easier viewing time.
Is Red Hat still relevant? You bet.Submitted by Scott Dowdle on Fri, 2008-01-04 14:33. Red Hat
I recently attended a Linux Installfest and the primary distribution recommended by those heading up the event was Ubuntu. That's all well and good but during their Linux dog-and-pony-show a statement was made regarding Red Hat that struck me. I don't recall the exact wording that was used but it was something along the lines of... Red Hat used to be very popular but not anymore. I wasn't really offended by the statement nor do I completely disagree with it... but a lot remains to be said about the importance of Red Hat within the Linux community. Red Hat is certainly king in the "Enterprise" space with Novell a respectable second... but many still seem to be unaware just how much Red Hat contributes to the development of many projects and the rapid progress of Linux.
Whenever I see any articles about Red Hat on any of the Linux community sites (think Slashdot), the comments will invariably mention a few things that I consider to be myths about Red Hat. They include:
- Red Hat is the "Microsoft of Linux"
- Red Hat abandoned the desktop/home user market
- Red Hat costs a fortune
- Red Hat created "rpm hell" and rpm based distributions suck
I do not want to even attempt to address each individual myth but I do want to make a few points about Red Hat in an effort to educate people to the fact that Red Hat does a lot for the Linux community and is a major (if not THE major) contributor.
A New Year, a New ZimbraSubmitted by Scott Dowdle on Tue, 2008-01-01 11:33. Zimbra
Zimbra Collaboration Suite 5.0 GA came out today or was it yesterday / last year? After reading the release notes(PDF) and doing a complete backup, I upgraded both my work and personal Zimbra servers. I have been using Zimbra for as my work and personal email server for... oh... something close to two years now. Over that time there have been a number of upgrades and they have always gone smoothly.
What's new with Zimbra 5.0?
Well, you could read the release notes to see, but I'll give a brief summary of some of the things that stand out in my mind:
- Briefcase - A file storage area with a nice file manager
- Tasks - Create to-do lists and manage tasks through to completion
- Instant Messaging - Beta - User to user chat
- More sharing - Mail folders can be shared, new HTTP calendar sharing, share Briefcase files
- Documents - Now out of beta... online text and spreadsheet documents
- Faster login - They split up the javascript into functional pieces so you don't have to load everything at login time
- Little touches - folder summaries, public or private calendar entries, updated help system, email priorities, enhanced tagging, and automatic http to https redirection

Bob Young on Richard StallmanSubmitted by Scott Dowdle on Tue, 2007-12-18 13:25. Red Hat | videos
Bob Young was one of the original founders of Red Hat... but he left Red Hat some time ago to establish lulu.com. Anyway, Bob gave a speech back in Oct. 2007 from which I took this little clip... where he discusses our hero Richard Stallman. Enjoy.

Advanced projects like this include countless hours of student-faculty interaction and go above and beyond the undergraduate curriculum with big rewards.
In a basement laboratory of the Robert L. Rooke Science Center sits a shiny metal cylinder that, including its base, stands about eight feet tall. Its size belies its power.
"This instrument generates a magnetic field about 250,000 times stronger than the earth's," says David Rovnyak, professor of chemistry.
In 2005, Rovnyak and a team of Bucknell faculty received a highly competitive National Science Foundation grant that made it possible for Bucknell to purchase the instrument - a 600 MHz NMR spectrometer (NMR).
"We wanted Bucknell's faculty and students to have access to the 600 MHz NMR technology because it is mission critical to almost any investigation in chemistry," he says. "Bucknell's faculty and students can use it to work on projects related to some of the nation's highest scientific priorities."
One of those priorities is to understand how micelles work. A class of electrically charged aggregates of molecules found in soaps and even in our bodies, micelles can bind oils and other small molecules. This property makes them prime candidates for pharmaceutical and environmental applications, says Rovnyak, but for 50 years scientists have struggled to understand an important class of micelles formed by bile molecules. Using NMR, Rovnyak and Timothy Strein, professor of chemistry, think they have begun to unravel the debate.
"There have been contradictory views among chemists," says Rovnyak. "The NMR data allowed us to observe the aggregates in new ways. We are finding that some of the contradictory views are actually both correct, like different sides of the same coin. By understanding micelles better, we hope such knowledge might improve their use to deliver drugs to cells or remediate oil spills."
Together, Rovnyak and Strein have included about 10 undergraduate researchers in the project. Several are co-authors in the first publication to emerge recently from this work, and many others have presented results at regional and national conferences. "Advanced projects like this include countless hours of student-faculty interaction and go above and beyond the undergraduate curriculum with big rewards," says Rovnyak. "Several of the students on this project have gone into top doctoral programs."

What if I'm on a Harvester server and some tier 2 noob wants to join? He doesn't even SEE the server (because premium servers are hidden from standard players), not to mention knowledge that he can invite pro subscribers to friends and get invited.
With servers getting standard slots, anyone would see them and be able to join them. Less popular modes (like RR/Har) would see life outside of samplers.

Disaster Assistance
Guidance For Emergency Debris Removal In Natural Streams
Guidance Document
(as approved by FEMA Headquarters 21 Jan 05 - M. Miller)
(Amended August 2006)
This document is intended to provide applicants with a working definition of FEMA regulations pertaining to the eligibility of emergency debris work in natural streams.
To be eligible for FEMA assistance, emergency debris work must be required as a
direct result
of the declared event, be performed within the
declared disaster area
, be
the legal responsibility
of the applicant at the time of the disaster and emergency debris removal measures
are required to eliminate the immediate threat to life or improved property.
Emergency protective measures must eliminate immediate threats of significant damage, or reduce hazards posing an immediate threat, to improved public or private property.
Implementation Guidance
Eligibility determinations for reimbursement of costs associated with emergency debris removal or emergency protective activities are based upon the following criteria:
The debris removal and emergency protective measure must be required as a direct result of the declared disaster event.
clearance of channel restrictions
including sediment deposition or vegetative debris
consisting of pre-disaster accumulation
of debris or sediment
is not eligible
for FEMA assistance.
Emergency debris removal efforts or emergency protective measures must be performed within the designated disaster area and must be the legal responsibility of the applicant at the time of the disaster declaration.
Emergency Debris removal work must accomplish one or more of the following;
an immediate threat
to lives, public health or safety from flooding, or
the threat of significant damage
to improved public or private property through measures that are cost effective.
These measures may not be funded in natural or wilderness areas.
immediate threat means
the threat of additional damage or destruction from an event that can reasonably be expected to occur within five years. An "immediate threat" is a threat that requires immediate action by a community to avoid continued or impending damage.
In all cases, eligible work in streams is limited to the minimum effort required
to protect lives or specific public and private improved property and measures to protect only against the immediate threat which is presented. {In general, channel clearance activities or threatened channel restrictions that occurred as a direct result of the declared disaster event, are activities immediately up/down stream of bridges and/or culverts located in close proximity (typically in recent disaster events, no greater than up to 200 feet up or downstream of improved property i.e, the culvert, bridge, waterway construction) to improved public or private property provide the greatest benefit in eliminating or reducing an immediate threat.
Note each site should be evaluated independently and decisions made based on surrounding conditions and impacting factors.
Gravel bars in natural areas are generally not eligible.
Stream bank restoration and channelization of channels in natural areas are not eligible
unless there is an immediate threat to improved public or private property.}
FEMA has defined the term "immediate threat" for a flood situation, in that an "immediate threat" exists if a 5 year flooding event could cause damage or threaten lives, public health and safety to improved property. This is not a flood which may occur within 5 years, but rather an event which has a 20% chance of occurring in any given year. Typically, an event which produces 1.0 – 1.5 inches of rainfall within a 2-4 hour period.
Before You Begin
In most instances, projects to clear event-generated debris from a clogged stream threatening lives, public health and safety, which may cause further significant damage to improved public or private property that return the affected eligible portion of a stream to pre-disaster conditions may be eligible for FEMA assistance. To this end, you should thoroughly document immediate post-event conditions at all areas where work is required or anticipated.
Eligibility of channel clearance activities
performed during the emergency period will be individually evaluated based upon FEMA's inspection of the channel clearance sites.
Maintenance records are generally required to establish previous work on the stream along with elevations or sediment loads of the pre-disaster condition. FEMA generally cannot pay to remove all debris whether sediment or vegetative, only storm related debris which is a direct result of the storm, and will not enable the waterway to pass an additional 5 year storm event.
Pay particular attention to upstream and downstream conditions from improved property and document the proximity to improved property at all anticipated work sites. Be aware that if an applicant receives federal funds from any other federal or state agency to offset any disaster-related debris removal costs, a project worksheet may have to be adjusted to reflect the anticipated co-share as an improved project. This would include advice or monetary assistance from DEP, the USACE, NRCS or County Soils and Water Conservation Districts. It is the applicant's responsibility to obtain all required environmental permits and approvals, and to ensure that all applicable regulations are complied with during stream clearance activities. If you are unsure as to the agencies you need to involve, contact your FEMA field representative for assistance before proceeding.

Since 1986, I have practised Social Work in a variety of fieldwork and hospital/hospice settings. Two of the Qualified Social Work positions I applied for [and was successful in being offered the posts], I had no previous direct experience of working with the particular service user group/setting. I believe firmly that the Social Work BA and MA courses offer students the opportunity to develop transferable skills that can be utilised in the broad range of settings where social work is practised.
I have been in my present post since August 2005.

Yasmin Alibhai Brown says that the idea of a fundamental clash between monolithic Islam and Western democracy suits extremists on all sides.
The determination of some religious and anti-religious people to blame each other for the world's evils is part of a damaging drift to fanaticism, argues Simon Barrow. What we all need is self-critique and hopefulness.

"They (the All Blacks) are a great team but a lot of their opponents are beaten before they get on the field," he said on the New South Wales Waratahs website.
"Playing against a team like the All Blacks, I think some guys are thinking, 'Oh, it's the All Blacks - I just don't know if we can beat these guys'."
The dual international, who is currently serving a lengthy suspension for a dangerous spear tackle on New Zealand skipper Richie McCaw during Australia's Tri-Nations clash with the All Blacks, said Australia was guilty of not having the mental edge to overcome its southern hemisphere neighbour.
"Sometimes if we get behind, we just don't have that mental edge to think we can win a game," said Tuqiri.
"We have the physical capabilities and can play above ourselves at different times, but being quite honest, I think we lack a bit of confidence when playing against the All Blacks.
"A lot of the northern hemisphere teams are certainly like that."
Tuqiri said the Wallabies need to be able to sharpen their mental resolve if they are going to be a contender for next year's World Cup in France.
"We do have to work on the mental approach," he stated. "It is probably underrated in our game and sport in general.
"I'd like to be part of a team where everyone from one to 22 says 'we can beat these guys - they are just in a jersey'."
The big Wallabies winger said he hoped Australia's four-Test tour of Europe this November was the catalyst for building that mental edge.
"Hopefully, this European tour will help us build that confidence within the team," he said. "Hopefully, we can go through undefeated.
"If we can win these Tests, it will give us a massive boost for next year. It will reinforce in us the belief that we have the squad to challenge for the World Cup."

Of course, being more prepared than the sheep is bad! Until something bad happens. My bug out bag, well it's my hike/camp backpack. Yep, I like to be prepared when venturing out of civilization, in case some crazy stuff happens. Who knows, fall down, step in a hole and snap an ankle. Better a nutbar than dead is my motto.

Mine too. If my reel isn't scissor action please tell me what it is? I am not trying to start an argument TX or be a smart ass, but explain to us what you mean/meant. Maybe we misunderstood your reply.
I know this thread is old but I'm going to put in my two cents.
I personally like the TruCuts, I prefer their controls over any reel made except for the higher priced Lockes. I prefer the 2 separate clutches, one for the drive and one for the reel...I like the ability to travel to my cutting location without the reel running dry. I have banged my TruCut around on the concrete and into the footer of my house and I have yet to see it come out of adjustment. For the price, I dont think you could get a more popular mower with separate drive/reel clutches and a more durable unit...like the California Trimmer, TruCuts have not changed a bit in many years...I know at least since the 70's - 80's.
That being said, I am selling my TruCut and picking up a 30" Legacy which is a Cali Trimmer/Eastman clone sold by Peachtree Mower. I am not crazy about the drive system, but I can live with it for a 30" mower...my next reel will be a Locke though.
Of all the mowers out there, I hear McClanes are some of the worst and they are not even that bad from what I have seen.

Find out why this summer horror film has the crew all in a tizzy.
I just got back from seeing the remake of "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" and I enjoyed myself quite a bit. Now, I don't have a great nostalgic love for the original; in fact, I have only seen bits and pieces of it over the past few years so I didn't go in to the theater with any great reservations over a remake. I am a sucker for the over the top gothic imagery and the dark fairytale atmosphere that can really only be created on these types of films.
"Don't be Afraid of the Dark", a remake of a 1973 made-for-tv movie by the same name, is ultimately a film about childhood innocence, fairy tales-turned real life evil, and how ignorant adults are of things that go bump in the night… in other words, it's a Guillermo Del Toro movie. Except it isn't, because this one was directed by first timer Troy Nixey, under the tutelage of Del Toro, serving as producer. It centers around Sally, a young girl played by Bailee Madison, who's sent away by her mother in Los Angeles to live with her father in a big, creepy house in Rhode Island.
I recently came across an article published by Jason Zinoman of the NY Times discussing what makes horror fans and horror directors tick. With the increasing number of horror films that have been packed into the theater this summer, especially this month, its clear that horror movies have been in the mainstream eye a bit more so than usual. However, to many of us seasoned horror fans, we've seen so many throat slashing, stabbing and torture scenes that it takes a lot to truly scare us. With all that horror directors have seen and done with their own films, they are no different.
Belen Rueda ("The Orphanage") stars as twin sisters Julia and Sara in the upcoming release from Spanish director Guillem Morales, "Julia's Eyes". Guillermo Del Toro's produced the film, which has definitely helped it create quite a buzz in early reviews. The film centers around Julia, who is trying to deal with her sister's apparent suicide while also dealing with her impending blindness due to a degenerative illness. IFC Films will be distributing the movie in the US via limited theatrical release later this month and then releasing it on VOD shortly after. Check out the trailer below:
The website for the Guillermo del Toro co-written frightfest "Don't Be Afraid Of the Dark" has hit the tubes for your time wasting enjoyment. Normally I wouldn't give a crap about a website launch but this one is actually pretty cool. Spooky voices that whisper your name and some hot webcam action make it all kinds of fun. Although it's probably going to be a giant let down after I built it up with promises of "hot webcam action".
All kind of news around "The Walking Dead" seems to be flying out of Comic-Con and probably the most exciting is that season 2 now officially has a premiere date of Sunday, October 16. The second most exciting thing is that a trailer for the upcoming season has been released. Third most exciting is a bunch of stills. Fourth most exciting is that to date I have not been notified that I won't be signed on to the cast for season 3.
AMC has officially announced a four part mini-series based on Stephan King's "Bag of Bones", a story that focuses on a man haunted by the loss of his wife. Pierce Brosnan and Anabeth Gish are both confirmed for the project which begins filming next month. Proof once again that if you wait long enough every book will be turned into moving pictures. The point here is reading is dumb.
The first trailer for the live action role playing kiddnapping succubus flick (seriously) "Knights of Badassdom" has hit the net thanks to all things Comic-Con and it looks hella good, son. Do people still say hella good? Ya know, like that No Doubt song? Is No Doubt still popular? They broke up?! Oh god.
Fans of the first two "Hellboy" films might want to cover up their cereal bowls because I'm about to piss all over your Wheaties. According to Hellboy creator Mike Mignola there's no chance of director Guillermo del Toro ever returning to make a third film. So i guess that does mean a 3rd film could be made without del Toro but who the hell wants to see that. The Canadians maybe but not this guy. Those hockey rioting sickos would probably eat that crap up with ketchup.
For those of you who aren't complete burnouts an can remember all the way back to 2004 you might remember some pretty bold words from Danny Elfman about never working with Sam Raimi again after his experience on "Spiderman 2". Well it looks like the Elf Man has had a change of heart and has signed on to do the score of Sam's new "Wizard of OZ" inspired flick "OZ: The Great and Powerful". So good news for those of you who are still holding out for an Oingo Boingo reunion.
Remember the days when people actually enjoyed Wes Craven's movies? Well I do and you should respect your elders you snotty little smartass. Anyway his 1977 classic film "The Hills Have Eyes" is finally being given the Blu-Ray treatment and will hit shelves on September 6th. So far no word on extras yet but this might be a nice place to record a little apology for "My Soul to Take".
If you're like me then you're still washing your eyes our with soap and water after seeing a Kane Hodder sex scene in "Hatchet 2". But here's a new slasher flick staring the Hodster as a creepy gas station owner who also seems to be obsessed with women titled "Exit 33". The flick has just been given an August 2nd release date and I can't imagine we'll see any hot Hodder action in it but if we do it'll most likely be in a gas station bathroom. Can you imagine what that would smell like?
The premiere we've all been waiting for is finally here my friends! Yes of course I speak of Rob Zombie's Woolite commercial and much to my surprise it looks like... well if Rob Zombie did a commercial for a laundry detergent. Shocking I know. Look for our podcast on the commercial coming in the next few weeks.
Looks like the good people behind the upcoming flick "Mansion of Blood" don't have nearly as much patience as the folks behind "The Gingerdead Man" films because they just shit canned Gary Busy from the lead role. Apparently Busy had already filmed about half of his scenes but his pain in the assness became too much and he was booted.
I love me some Guillermo Del Toro but I swear to Jesus if you break up "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" there will be hell to pay. Rumor has it that Del Toro is in talks with Sunny's Charlie Day to play a role in his upcoming monsters attack earth flick "Pacific Rim" which is set for a 2013 release. Then again there's a new season of Sunny coming out in between then and if it sucks like the last one did then he can go ahead and do whatever the hell he wants.
99% of horror comedies are neither funny nor scary and guess what folks, the upcoming Halloween romp "Fun Size" will not break the mold. How do I know this? Because Chelsea Handler has just been cast in the movie and she's not funny. If you think she is you're wrong and I'm sorry. Just because she's kind of pretty and swears a lot doesn't make her hilarious. Trust me, I pay $75 a ticket to watch her talk about diddling herself for an hour at Radio City Music Hall and I didn't crack a smile once. You drop $150 bucks and all of the sudden a goofy smile and low cut shirt isn't so funny. Learn from my mistakes!
The Guillermo del Toro produced and co-written film "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" has been kicking around for so long I honestly thought I saw and loved it 2 years ago. Of course I spent 3 years in the jungle surviving mostly on peyote and strange mushrooms so I'm not sure which memories are real anymore. But a full trailer has hit the net and honestly it looks even better then I remember it. I think.
Tom Savini has decided to dust off his makeup tools and come out of retirement to work on a couple of Australian independent horror films. "Redd Inc" is a revenge film that focuses on an online stripper who gets kidnapped and "Mary Doe" is about a woman who gets lost in the desert and finds herself smack dab in the middle of a zombie outbreak. Of course now that he's doing FX again we can only hope Savini decides to dust off the golden speedo one more time. The world needs it now more than ever.
If you're excited for this Sunday's premier of "True Blood" Season 4 than I'm sad to report you are officially off my Christmas card list. But while you sob about that loss you can check out the first 3 minutes of the new episode. I didn't watch it but I assume it's full of ridiculous accents and dry humping. The formula apparently works well.
Word around campus is an TV mini-series adaptation of Stephen King's "Bag of Bones" could begin filming as early as July. The book follows a man who returns to his summer home after the loss of his wife to try to break his writer's block. Unfortunately his wife's ghost isn't done with him yet and things don't go according to plan. Women, they'll even nag ya from the grave! Am I right, fellas? Is this thing on?
Charlie Hunnam, who you might know from "Sons of Anarchy" AKA the only show still keeping me a man, has signed on to Guillermo del Toro's "Pacific Rim". The movie will be set in a future where giant monsters threaten to destroy the earth. Hunnam will most likely play some dreamy hunk who saves the day and I will most likely have to turn to my wife every time he's on screen and ask her what the hell she's looking at.
Speaking of men my wife would leave me for, Colin Hanks had signed on to the cast of season 6 of "Dexter". No word on what sort of role Hanks will play in the upcoming season that airs in October but if I'm a betting man I'd say he'll be the ying to Dexter's yang. No I don't understand what that means either.
Absolutely no one is excited about "Night of the Living Dead 3D: Re-Animation" but yet it's still being made and now there's trailers to prove it. Wait did you say you wanted to see Sarah Palin impersonations 3 years after they were relevant? No?! Well you're getting them anyway. God bless America.
The latest director's name to be tossed into the "Leatherface 3D" hat is John Luessenhop and from his IMDB page I can confirm he owns at least one awesome suit. The film will pick up directly where the original remake of the original (confused?) left off and then will jump ahead 35 years. That may or may not put them in the future. I'm awful with numbers.

Fire started by lighter displaces family
Six people were displaced from an Oxnard home Wednesday after a child playing with a lighter started a fire in a bedroom, authorities said.
The fire was reported about 1:39 p.m. Wednesday in a single-family home in the 200 block of West Yucca Street, said Battalion Chief Gary Sugich of the Oxnard Fire Department. Firefighters arrived to find the home filled with smoke. They extinguished the fire within about five minutes, Sugich said.
All of the occupants were able to get out on their own. One woman was treated at the scene for smoke inhalation.
The fire began when a small child playing with a lighter lit toys on fire in a bedroom, Sugich said. The home's smoke detectors didn't function because they had no batteries in them, he said. The child's grandmother discovered the fire after smelling smoke.
The fire caused an estimated $30,000 in damage and displaced three adults and three children, Sugich said.

Written Answers - Appointments to State Boards
Wednesday, 28 March 2012
Dáil Éireann Debate
90. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Finance since the Government was formed the number of vacancies in State boards that have been filled by his Department without advertising the availability of the positions; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17032/12]
Minister for Finance (Deputy Michael Noonan): In response to the Deputy's question the following are vacancies on boards under the aegis of my Department since March 2011.
The following people were appointed to the Fiscal Advisory Council:
As Minister for Finance I announced the establishment of the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council on a non-statutory basis on 7 July 2011. The Council is part of a wider agenda of reform of Ireland's budgetary architecture which is envisaged in the Programme for Government and is a requirement of the EU/IMF Programme of Financial Support for Ireland. When establishing the Council, I stated that the Council would be an independent body whose existence and independence would be underpinned by legislation to be brought forward by Government in the Fiscal Responsibility Bill.
I appointed the members having regard to a number of criteria including the desirability of having a mix of appropriate backgrounds (academia, the financial sector/financial markets and public finance), macroeconomic/microeconomic expertise and a strong international dimension, as well as the need to take gender considerations into account. I am satisfied that the appointed members have the mix of skills and experience, including in relation to fiscal affairs, to ensure that the Council will be highly effective in fulfilling its mandate. The Fiscal Responsibility Bill will include provisions for the appointment of members once the Council is on a statutory footing.
National Asset Management Agency
Mr John Mulcahy was appointed to the Board of the National Asset Management Agency. He was not appointed under the new procedures for board appointments. His appointment was a National Asset Management Agency Executive Appointment. Mr Mulcahy is head of Asset Management within the National Asset Management Agency.
Irish Bank Resolution Corporation (IBRC)
Mr. Oliver Ellingham and Mr. Roger McGreal were appointed to the Board of the Irish Bank Resolution Corporation. As specific skills are required due to the nature of the business model at IBRC it was decided on this occasion not to proceed with the public advertisement of the vacancies.

Store twice as many discs in the same amount of space with the Memorex Twin DVD Storage Cases. Twin DVD Storage Cases contain two disc hubs in a standard size DVD case, which allows you to store twice the number of discs in the same space. Each case also has a clear sleeve for labeling the disc contents with Memorex DVD Storage Case Inserts.
Main Features
Comments about Memorex Memorex Twin Storage DVD Cases:
Good if you wanna take along 2 of your favorite dvd's or cd's along anytime.......
Comments about Memorex Memorex Twin Storage DVD Cases:
Lots of folks sell Twin CD/DVD cases. Lots sell CHEAP twin CD/DVD cases. I've been using Memorex cases for years and will not trust what I deliver to a client to anything else. The cases hold up to multiple openings/closings without wearing out the hinge points, adding your own printed label material to the outside sleeve is worry-free vs. cases where the transparent label holder rips from the case. Additionally the inclusion of a "booklet" holder on the inside is invaluable for any insert you may want to consider (e.g. coupon for their next order), etc. Price point [...] was excellent.

Foods using illegal battery eggs still sold
Posted: October 03, 2012|
Illegal battery eggs from Europe may still be in products on sale on shelves in this country, according to welfare campaigners and a West Country MP.
While the Government is promising to tighten up regulations and prevent loopholes, the organisation Four Paws is using the current British Egg Week to call for clear labelling of products for consumers.
In a response to a written question from Adrian Sanders, the Lib Dem MP for Torbay, Farming Minister David Heath admitted that food products containing illegally-produced battery eggs may still be on sale on shelves.
The campaigners are urging consumers to choose free-range eggs and to read carefully their food labels to ensure they are not buying products with hidden caged eggs.
Since January 1, conventional battery cages for laying hens have been banned in all EU member states. Only so-called "enriched cages" are allowed.
According to research conducted by Four Paws, farms in 14 member states were still using illegal battery cages at the beginning of the year and did not comply with the EU directive on minimum standards for the protection of laying hens.
On January 26, the European Commission began infringement proceedings against 13 non-complying member states, which are on-going against 10.
Questioned about what measures were being taken to prevent illegal battery eggs entering the country, Mr Heath said: "Non-compliant member states' action plans include the commitment that eggs from conventional cages can only go for processing in the member state of origin and cannot be exported."
But he admitted: "These egg products can then be used only in food products or industrial products manufactured within the member state of origin and only these food products can then be exported."
Angelique Davies, of Four Paws, said: "It's shocking that products containing illegal eggs may still be on sale here.
"Hens in these illegal cages suffer terribly and are confined in such tiny spaces that they often develop severe mental and physical health problems. In the 21st century it is totally unacceptable that eggs from these abused hens are on sale on British shelves in processed foods – and consumers aren't even able to tell from the label where the eggs have come from."
She added: "We commissioned a poll where 86 per cent of respondents were in favour of extending the compulsory labelling of shell egg packs to include egg ingredients in food products to indicate the production system used.
"We want British consumers to know where their eggs are coming from and buy with confidence. That's why we are calling on the Government for clearer labelling."
Ten member states – Italy, Belgium, Cyprus, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Portugal, Spain, France and the Netherlands – still use illegal battery cages.
Many illegal cage eggs are hidden in processed food like pasta, mayonnaise, sweets and egg liqueur.

Earlier this month our studio spent an afternoon with the guys of Breathe Carolina to create a series of portraits.
More often than not the artists we work with are on a very tight schedule and there isn't always the luxury of capturing enough footage for a look behind the scenes. Fortunately this time around we were given enough of a window that my good friend and cinematographer Bryce was able to catch some great footage. You can get a look at how the shoot went down from start to finish below;
Last but certainly not least I want to send out a big thank you to our stylist Cassie Boyd, the models, and the staff of The Curtis Hotel for going above and beyond to take care of the band and our crew during the shoot. We couldn't have pulled this off without each and every one of them.

The room was very comfortable. The breakfast was great. Lots of options.
Grounds are beautiful
Rooms are old and carpets were stained and dirty. The room didn't smell fresh and clean.
Beautiful grounds! The outdoor pool/patio looked fabulous as well but we didn't get to enjoy it as thew weather was a little cool.
Rooms were a little worn, you can tell that they made an effort to update recently but if you looked closer you can tell that the remodels/cosmetic improvements were not done well and attention to detail was not there. There was not a whole lot of insulation between rooms as you could hear others in room next to you pretty clearly.
The hotel is directly across the street from the lake, next to The Baker House, a few minutes of walking to the tourist downtown area. It's got everything you need!
The decor was a bit outdated, and not in the charming way
room was big.
I arrived with my 85 yr old Mother in a wheel chair and there was no one ( even if I wanted to pay extra) to help us with our luggage. However, they did make sure they charged the "resort daily fee" right away.
There was no parking for us- handicapped or my sister who had another room in the facility. They had to park across the street in public parking! There were many parties and events which made the hotel a bit manic and loud. We didn't have appropriate bedding for the pull out couch in the suites. No blankets, sheets or even pillows.
I called ahead of time to make sure if I was going to pay $275 a night they had handicap access to their two pools. They said yes definitely. We waited at the indoor pool, at 8pm ( the pool closed at 9p) for 20 minutes to get someone there to get the handicap access working. The outdoor pool handicap access never worked!
I called the concierge to get the phone number of our next hotel near the airport in Chicago to make sure we had a handicapped room. They never offered to make the call for me and actually gave me the wrong number! Consequently, I arrived late that evening at the wrong hotel.
If you stay at a basic hotel one cannot expect much more than a clean room and maybe internet. Paying $275 a night for a resort, I expect much much more.
The location was great. Our room was a little dated, but very clean. We enjoyed having our own kitchen and the Jacuzzi tub. The pool and activities were awesome.
The drain in our tub was very slow. We did tell maintenance, but we saw no change.
I like that every room has a kitchen and dining room, balcony, fireplace, as well as spacious bathrooms. Full size fridge to bring your own food. water park had enough to keep the kids busy. Great price.
I liked how October was a good time to go without a lot of people and lines, but I was disappointed at the end of the stay when we accidentally turned in our room keys (so we thought) and I handed the lady our rechargable game cards instead that look VERY similar. Our game cards already had points on them from us spending $ and we were just about to trade them in before we left and I quickly realized I mixed them up and went back and the lady at the desk said sorry you're out of luck we threw the cards in a bin and I don't know which one were yours. No apology or anything. So, my kids were pretty bummed they could not get a prize and I was disappointed that we played all those games, racked in a lot of points and then lost out. I will be emailing the resort. Also, the lady at the desk and the guy in the game room said this happens all the time so, you'd think they'd fix it by now. On the other hand, I loved the Restaurant Brisaggo at the Geneva Resort right down the road. Delicious. Pricey, but worth it. The rooms were spacious and we got to hear all the screams coming from the haunted hayrides-looked pretty creepy! FYI anyone visiting Lake Geneva, they stop selling alcohol at 9pm. We stopped at a Walmart to pick something up and didn't realize this coming from Chicago that we were out of luck for the night. Overall, it was a nice trip. I might go back depending on the reply I get from the resort after I email them.
Thought the rooms were outdated. Bathrooms small. Tub ran slow.
Location is amazing right on the lake. However you need to get a room that overlooks the lake. Mine was overlooking the parking lot.
there were no vending machines
Felt very county like and cozy
The bed was extremely squeaky. I even threw a pillow on the bed and it squeaked. I woke up every time my husband rolled over bc of the noise the bed made.
It was very cozy. A nice getaway
I had to leave
The location and activities to do on the site.
Our first stay a couple of years ago, we had a jacuzzi and a fire place the approx. same time of year and price range. this room was ok, but half the space. I would like to know if next winter if we would be able to request a fire place.
Toilet was filthy. Coffee wasnt
t available until 7:30 am
It was clean
Cozy and romantic.
All wood. They have a Carpenter Ant issue

Five things you need to know about Syria's refugee crisis
Now in its third winter, the toll of the Syrian refugee crisis continues to rise. Here are five facts you should know about this crisis, and what World Vision is doing to help.
Now in its third winter, the toll of the Syrian refugee crisis continues to rise. Here are five facts you should know about this crisis, and what World Vision is doing to help.
Today marks two months since Typhoon Haiyan made landfall in the Philippines. After the storm, World Vision communicator Annila Harris visited survivors and met sponsored child Apple, whose family is benefiting from World Vision relief supplies. The way this little girl cared for her baby sister, Roalyn, taught Annila that even when a disaster takes away almost everything, the most important thing in life is still family.
Wednesday marks two months since Typhoon Haiyan made landfall in the Philippines, causing immense devastation and loss of life. World Vision quickly mobilized more than 200 local staff members to help reach almost 400,000 survivors with relief operations.
Today, Florence, one of our team members on the ground, reflects on the past two months and the amazing love and hope she has felt from around the world as we all became each other's miracle.

2013 was a very busy year! The social media team ran and supported a wide variety of programs and work, sharing joy, answering the question Why World Vision?, promoting books and films, and responding to disasters. Out of the hundreds of blog posts published this year, here's a list of my – and your! – favorites.
Vote for your favorite! Whichever post gets the most comments below, I'll look into doing a follow-up post later in 2014!
Within these last few days of the year, many people take this opportunity to squeeze in one more charitable donation as an extra write-off for their taxes. Your tax forms don't care where that money goes, as long as it's a charity, but you probably do. You'll want to make sure that your money is going to a good organization.
But what does that mean? And how can you know?
2013 has been an amazing year (but maybe I'm biased; it was my first year with World Vision!) From responding to natural disasters and refugee crises to bringing clean water to a new person every 30 seconds, we've been doing great work around the world this year, and we look forward to continuing this work in 2014.
You can help! Are you considering making one more tax-deductible donation before 2013 is over? Here are five categories that have been important in 2013 — to us, to our donors, and to the children we're serving. Make your choice today!
