Ranking Beyonce's film performances
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Beyonce will be the halftime performer at next year's Super Bowl, we learned this week when the AP broke the news. This got me thinking about the multi-talented multi-hyphenate's movie performances. The R&B superstar has appeared in a lot of films over the past decade, with some decidedly high-profile roles. And while she shouldn't quit her day job just yet, she does have a radiant screen presence.
So here's a ranking of Beyonce's film work — although her greatest role of all may be that of the now-defunct Sasha Fierce persona she created to give herself the confidence to be wild and sexy on stage.
— "Fade to Black" (2004): Admittedly, this choice is a bit of a cheat. Beyonce wasn't exactly acting here, per se. This was the documentary that captured the 2003 Madison Square Garden concert that was supposedly Jay-Z's last. By the time the film came out, he'd already "unretired" — as if he'd ever actually retired in the first place. Beyonce, his then-covert love interest who since has become his wife and the mother of his child, absolutely tore it up here, upstaging Jay-Z himself with "Crazy in Love." In black sequins and bright yellow pumps, she was a post-millennial Ikette, all flying hair and grinding hips.
— "Austin Powers in Goldmember" (2002): In a spoof of the attitudinal blaxploitation movie heroine, Beyonce played Foxxy Cleopatra, a whole lotta woman. This basically called upon her to say things like: "I'm Foxxy Cleopatra, and I'm a whole lotta woman!" But in her first big-screen role, she did look the part in the giant 'fro and flashy, form-fitting get-ups of the era. In this tired third installment in the franchise, Austin Powers (Mike Myers) time-traveled to 1975 to rescue his dad (Michael Caine). As the undercover spy who tags along on the slapsticky mission — and a former flame of Austin's, naturally — Beyonce seemed to be having a blast.
— "Cadillac Records" (2008): Beyonce faced the daunting task of playing Etta James, a role that would impact her so deeply, it would find its way into the songs on her "I Am ... Sasha Fierce" album. As the tormented, drug-addicted vocal powerhouse, Beyonce packed on the padding and donned a wig to make her look older, less beautiful. From the second she entered the film as the tempestuous James, you wanted to see her sing her signature hit "At Last," and that was about it. In telling the story of Chicago-based Chess Records, the label that launched so many important artists during the 1950s and '60s, the music was better than the movie itself.
— "Dreamgirls" (2006): Beyonce played the Diana Ross-esque lead singer of a '60s singing trio in this movie based on the 1981 Broadway musical. As an actress ... well, she sure did look great. Beyonce didn't seem ready at this point to dig deep for the big, dramatic moments in which she found herself, and hadn't really improved by the time she made "Cadillac Records." Co-star Jennifer Hudson stole the entire movie away from her and went on to win the Academy Award for best supporting actress. But Beyonce was the main beneficiary of costume designer Sharen Davis' infinite resourcefulness; the big-earring-and-bell-bottom phase was fun, and even the unfortunate foray into a black "Cleopatra" movie was a hoot.
— "Obsessed" (2009): The catfight between Beyonce and Ali Larter sent this domestic thriller scratching and clawing its way to the top of the box office, where it debuted at No. 1 with nearly $29 million. And the knock-down, drag-out brawl between these two gorgeous women is probably the only thing anyone will remember about this movie afterward. Beyonce played the happily married wife and mother who would do whatever it took to keep her husband (Idris Elba) from succumbing to the seductive charms of a sexy new temp in his office (Larter). Beyonce struck one note throughout ... but it was fierce.

WASHINGTON (AP) President Barack Obama is asking Congress for $615 million to help fight wildfires as the summer season is already prompting blazes across western states.
The White House said Obama will submit the request along with a bigger, $3.7 billion proposal to confront a wave of Central American children crossing the southern border illegally.
The$615 million would go to the Department of Agriculture. White House officials say the money is designed to pay for all wildfire needs in 2014.

text: Ferris Hill Baptist Church NWFL Goes Back Into The Deep Freeze By Dave Dunwoody • Jan 6, 2015 AccuWeather.com Temperatures in the Florida Panhandle are heading south this week, with a hard freeze and single-digit wind chills expected by Thursday morning. A big dip in the Jet Stream is enabling a dome of frigid air to slide out of western Canada southward, says Dave Eversole at the National Weather Service in Mobile. That's expected to drop temperatures to about 20 degrees below normal in northwest Florida and south Alabama. "We're going to see teens for most of the area Wednesday night," said Eversole. "Highs on Thursday probably just in the lower 40s for much of the area." EscaRosa Cold Weather Shelters Open By Dave Dunwoody • Dec 30, 2014 ferrishill.org With temperatures forecast to hover around the 40 degree mark Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, cold weather shelters have opened in Pensacola and Milton. Brian Nall, the Pastor at Ferris Hill Baptist Church, says they've been opening the church's doors for seven years when the weather turns frigid. He says the shelter is a part of their larger Benevolence Ministry. More Arctic Chill Is Coming By Dave Dunwoody • Nov 17, 2014 accuweather.com One week after the first taste of winter for northwest Florida and south Alabama, another, colder round is on tap for the next couple of days. Shelters are gearing up as the temperatures go down. According to the National Weather Service in Mobile, a cold front is pushing through the area, bringing with it will push through our area later today. Forecaster Joe Maniscalco says this is an atypically cold air mass for November, for the central Gulf Coast. Freezing Temperatures On The Gulf Coast By Dave Dunwoody • Jan 3, 2014 Andrew Seaman The winter storm pounding the northeastern United States brought rain to the Gulf Coast this week. Northwest Florida and south Alabama are also slated for a return to the deep freeze. As Temperatures Drop Emergency Shelters Open By Dave Dunwoody • Nov 27, 2013 Two weeks after the first taste of winter for northwest Florida and south Alabama, another, colder round is on tap for this week. The same weather system that's pushing winter storm conditions towards the northeastern U.S. is sending frigid air into the Southeast. For this area, that means the coldest temperatures of the fall on Wednesday – highs in the upper 40s during the day, then dropping into the 20s that evening. Wind chill indices will be in the 20s.


text: Hey there, according to this: http://www.reddit.com/r/Planetside/comments/13xa2a/so_higby_answered_a_ton_of_our_questions_about/ (points 3 & 4), the devs want to make the LA a lone wolf/1v1 assassin class. I've spent tons of time and money on that class, and this sounds terrible and is NOT what I want. You gave us C4, which is awesome, and we can unlock special grenades. Why not build onto that and make the LA a Demolitions Expert? If you want to buff the class, give us some nice new tools to cause some havoc on the big battlefields, because a lone wolf 1v1ing people (where in this game can you even do that?) seems like a waste of a class. Demolitions expert would be something new, and there's nothing comparable in the game yet. Think of it as the TF2 Demoman.

If you already have a slot-2. You can use them as passthru devices if you want. Including the Micro-SD, they are only about $30 more than a passthru card.

SuperCard LITE Micro SD or the R4?
Posted 22 April 2007 - 03:07 AM
Right now, the supply of M3 simply is very tight and you won't find it in stock at most places. So I would recommend getting an R4. They work well they update their firmware regularly.
Now even the price of m3 ds simply and R4 are same.
I got one m3 simply for www.nxpgame.com $39.99
Posted 14 May 2007 - 08:55 PM
With the DS-Xtreme I don't like the fact that you are limited on size, and if you want the bigger size (which you do because Nintendo just upped the size limit on games) you have to pay twice as much as the M3 Simply or R4.
With the M3 and R4 I am worried about wifi play (I've heard Mario Kart doesn't play well w/ wifi). I am not to concerned about the Download Play feature, but I definitely want wifi play.
Today the CycloDS Evolution was announced and it looks to be promising.
So basically I'm looking for input from everybody. Has anyone had problems with wifi play on any cart, what cart would you recommend, etc.?

Bil "Negril" Szarabajka owns two of the hottest clubs on Frenchmen Street in New Orleans, The Spotted Cat and Café Negril. On Sunday, January 31, Bil (yes, that's one "l") used the two clubs' proximity — they're practically across the street from each other — to host a benefit for Haiti relief.
He contacted 30 bands that regularly play at his clubs about performing and wound up with a total of 24 acts. Bil recounts, "We had 24 bands, and every hour on the hour, we switched it up. All the bands donated their time, and nobody said 'no'. I was pretty proud of that."
100 percent of the $10 door donations, which got you into both clubs via a stamp on the hand, went to Doctors Without Borders for much needed Haiti relief efforts. Bil also donated a percentage of the bars' cash rings during the event to the same organization, bringing the total proceeds from the event to $5007.
While attendance wasn't as heavy as Szarabajka hoped, he says, "I was just happy that people turned out and we had a lot of fun. And I hope we get to do it again!"
Performers included Soul Project, Sunpie Barnes, Jazz Vipers, New Orleans Moonshiners, Cottonmouth Kings of New Orleans, John Lisi & Delta Funk, Higher Heights, Jamey St. Pierre & the Honeycreepers, Jerry Jumonville, Dominic Grillo, Washboard Chaz, Margie Perez, Panorama Jazz Band, Loose Marbles, Dave Gregg, Meschiya Lake, Smoky Greenwell & the Blues Gnus, and more.
WWOZ salutes Bil Szarabajka and all the performers at the event for lending a hand where it's needed.

5. Arriving at LIB
• Car & RV Campers: Have your RFD Vehicle Pass sticker on the inside top corner of the driver side windshield upon arrival. It will be scanned and verified before you are able to proceed to the campgrounds. If EVERYONE in your vehicle has their RFID wristbands on you will pull straight into the main festival gate where our staff will scan your wristbands. Piece of cake, you are in!
• Will Call: If you did not have your RFID wristbands mailed to you you'll need to pull into the on site Box Office upon arrival and pick up your wristbands at WILL CALL. (Follow street signs upon arrival to get to the box office) If one person in your vehicle doesn't have a wristband on, the entire vehicle will need to go to the box office.
Wristbands and Vehicle Pass Hangtags can both be picked up at will call, however... If you already have your shipped wristbands and printed Vehicle Pass Voucher prior to arriving, you do not need to stop at will call.
All wristbands and printed vehicle pass vouchers will be scanned and verified by our LIB staff from the comfort of your own cars. At that point, scanned and verified vehicle pass vouchers will then be exchanged for an official vehicle pass hangtag.
If you purchased a Car Camping pass this will be mailed to you when your festival wristband is sent to you. Simply follow the instructions and you're good to go!
If you purchased a Car Camping pass and it does not arrive in the mail or if you have a pass at Will Call you will need to pick it up at the box office upon arrival.
Don't let your procrastinators slow you down! Encourage your friends to purchase their festival passes before the wristband mailing deadline on May 13th and avoid any chance of of being stuck in a vehicle with someone who needs to stop at will call!

The hub of our local communities
We've made significant progress developing relationships with our local communities, with a focus on children at primary school age.
Breeze - helping to get more women cycling
We're delighted to be partnering with Breeze so that, together, we can help more women get into cycling.
British Cycling's Breeze network is the largest programme in Britain designed specifically to get more women cycling. Led by women for women, Breeze is underpinned by an amazing network of volunteers - Breeze Champions - who organise local rides for women ranging from six to 60 miles and more. Since launching in 2011 over 15,000 rides involving 75,000 women have taken place and the movement is still growing.
You can read more about Breeze here – www.breezebikerides.com
Bikes for Primary School Children
For some families, buying a bike can be too much of a stretch when they've got other, more immediate household bills to pay. To help address this at Halfords we will recondition and donate 500 bikes and new helmets to primary school children in the most disadvantaged areas of our eight cycling cities.
The bikes come from regular trade-in events we hold and are re-conditioned at our cycle workshop in Onley prison, which trains prisoners to be professional cycle mechanics.
Schools in the eight cycling cities can apply for a donation here - application form.
Other community activities we support include:
Kids' Holiday Bike Club
At Easter and in Summer we offer a free in-store Kids' Holiday Bike workshop for 7 to 11 year olds. The workshop shows children – and their parents – the key things to check on a bike, providing a perfect starting point for children to go back home and, together with their parents, make sure their bikes are safe. So far, over 48,000 children and parents have attended the workshops at our stores.
You can find out more here.
Gear-UP! School Workshops
Building on the success of our holiday bike club, in June 2014 store colleagues visited over 12,000 pupils delivering a Gear-UP! bike workshop.
Gear-UP! is designed to teach key bike maintenance and safety to children in their final year of primary school.
Teachers can register an interest in the next set of workshops here.
Cub bike workshops
We have also teamed up with the Scouts Association to help Cubs achieve their Cyclist Activity badge when they attend a more in-depth workshop at our stores.
So far, over 7,500 cubs attended a workshop towards their badge. Cub Leaders can access more information on the workshops here.
In 2013, we began a long-term partnership with Re~Cycle, a UK charity that sends unwanted bikes to Africa. In some areas of Africa, a bike can be the only means of transport and owning a bike enables people to travel to work, school and carry goods and passengers, whilst small scale farmers and traders can reach customers further afield.
The bikes can similarly be an invaluable resource for travelling health workers and provide access to training and employment, helping to improve lives in a sustainable way. However, bikes can be too expensive for the majority and additionally the skills to maintain them might not exist, whereas millions of unused bikes go to waste in sheds and garages in the UK.
So far we've raised over £210k for the charity and collected over 12,000 unwanted bikes from kind hearted members of the public following trade-in events.
You can read more about Re~Cycle on their website - http://www.re-cycle.org/
Bike Trade-in Events
On a regular basis we hold bike trade-in events, where members of the public can donate unwanted bikes in return for a discount off a new bike.
The majority of adult bikes go to Africa through our charity partnership with Re~Cycle. Many children's bikes are re-conditioned and donated to schools via our Bikes for Primary School Children scheme (see above). Any bikes unsuitable are recycled responsibly.
Customers can also simply donate a bike at any time at some of our stores too - you can find out which stores accept them here
Halfords Academy
We've set up a full cycle mechanic training facility inside Onley Prison near Rugby and we're training prisoners to be professional cycle mechanics. We will be offering the very best candidates the opportunity to become full-time Halfords colleagues. This will help them to rebuild their lives following their sentences and it will provide us with fully trained and committed colleagues.
We operate the largest independent Apprentice Scheme in the motor industry via our autocentres. In twenty years of operation, we have offered employment to the majority of apprentices who completed the three-year scheme.
In 2015, we also announced plans to place 500 apprentices in our retail stores over the next 12 months - you can read more here.
In 2013 and 2014 we brought together the biggest company network in Europe and raised over £25k for Movember, helping to increase the profile of men's health with colleagues and customers across our stores.
We are proud to have received four awards for our work - winning an International CSR Excellence Award for Community Commitment, Retail Week Finalist Award for CSR Initiative of the Year and Business Charity Award Finalist for Charity Partner - Retail & Leisure and CSR Team.

Finn fleet start at Delta Lloyd Regatta in Medemblik, Netherlands
Despite blotting his scorecard in race five today, Friday, Giles Scott (GBR) has maintained his seven point lead at the top of the Finn fleet after day three at the Delta Lloyd Regatta in Medemblik, Netherlands. A third in race four was followed by a 10th in race five as the sailors enjoyed another tough day on the IJsselmeer.
However in a gusty 15 to 20 knot winds it was his team mate Andrew Mills (GBR) who took the first gun of the day. Mills, who took race wins at both the Palma and Hyeres regattas is another product of the strong GBR team that now has three inside the top 10 here in Medemblik. Mills was followed over the line by Pieter-Jan Postma (NED), with another Brit, Ed Wright (GBR) in fourth place.
In the wavy conditions, there were big gains to be made downwind and most of the top 15 places were tight until the finish.
After a pretty average start to the regatta, Wright, who is the current leader of the ISAF Sailing World Cup was back on form in race five with a race win to bring him right back into contention. Postma was also going fast in the increased wind to post another second place while Zach Railey (USA) picked up a third for his efforts.
Railey said, 'It was very tough again today. Both sides of the course were paying at times, so playing shifts was key. The waves also made for big gains and losses on the downwind legs, and if you could get into a good groove you could make a lot of distance on boats around you.'
Wright's win lifts him to second overall, while Railey climbs two places to finish the day in third. After two low teens results yesterday, Postma's two second places today moves him up to fourth.
ISAF Sailing World Cup in Medemblik, Netherlands - Results:
Finn (after 5 races)
1. Giles Scott, GBR (9pts)
2. Ed Wright, GBR (16pts)
3. Zach Railey, USA (16pts)
The final qualification races will be sailed on Saturday to be followed by Sunday's medal race, tracked live through the event website.

Uh, no - you don't get to 'deflect questions' on this one. Your administration caused a panic, Obama. Why?
I predict Gibbs won't make it to 2010. he's too much of a smart alec. Obama will throw him over board asap.
How much did this cost the taxpayer? What was the photo for?
There was a lot of panic downtown and Jersey City this morning, and no one will take responsability for it. Shame on all of them. There people running off building screaming and yelling and yet, no one has an answer for what went wrong. All they had to do is send a notice to building managements and it would have been a non issue. We always get notices saying, low flying planes around this time or that time, not this time around.
Are you using military time, as in 8:10 pm tonight? ; )
I don't think Glibbs should make it through the end of the week.
Read as: "I don't need to answer for this." Arrogance, plain and simple.
Why does Mr. Gibbs always repsond to a question he does not know the answer to or want the answer to with sarcasim? It is rather unprofessional. BTW, where are all the enviormental groups denouncing the carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere as a result of this stunt?
The airplane was not "Air Force One" as the President was not on board.
Just goes to show how much he doesn't care about our nation's safety... after 9/11, this incident should be of major concern and Obama's reaction should NOT be... "I was working on other things," he said. "You might be surprised to know, I don't know of every movement of Air Force One or what happens to it. But I will certainly talk to the Military Office." - ... ignorance
JUST more example of a brain dead so called president that has gone absolutely insane with his new found power
and the hundereds of thousands of retarts standing in line to kiss his butt
Gibbs is smartass and should go ____ himself.
A photo opp? How much did this cost? This administration claims to try to save money and they go out to do a (likely very expensive) photo opp (not to mention causing people to evacuate buildings, etc...)
May I ask, who cares? I mean seriously, after tomorrow who will really care? The delusional will use this as an excuse to blame Obama but most people will not give two craps about a simple scare that caused people to overreact. This is coming from a guy that was in the city when the planes hit.
A] The Air Force is a very publicity-conscious organization. Think of every air show in the country or every big ball game where a flight of fighter jets does a fly-over. The idea of capturing the presidential 747 above the Statue of Libery was actully brilliant publicity.
B] Telling the FAA to NOT tell the general public makes perfect sense to me. Would you announce exactly where and when a plane that would make the best terrorist target ever was going to be making big lazy circles, low, over an uncontrolled area with open site lines in all directions? Sounds like thhe perfect opportunity for someone with a stolen missle to score major points with Allah to me.
What are you talking about. The paranoids and fearmongers are in a panic because AF1 flew over Manhattan escorted by military jets to get a few pictures?
Welcome to a saner world but do not forget to take your xanax until you are completely cured of your phobias and anxieties.
We are not too afraid anymore....
This caused a major panic, the NYPD and Port Authority were given gag orders to NOT inform the public, the white house press sectretery is arrogantly claiming ignorance, and yet all we still get is circular finger pointing as if this were no big deal? Wow. That's some leadership this new administration is showing. Not.
My guess is the photo op was for Wednesday's prime time address on the first 100 days. And with the markets somewhat settled (for the time being), Obama will probably read Reagan's Morning in America speech Wednesday night to show how much of a difference he has made!
If this stunt had been pulled during George Bush's administration, rabid hyper-partisans would have been calling for that president's hide.
This was a boneheaded move by the federal government. As the man in charge, Obama should have had his spokesman ready to apologize for the poor communication in the operation. Instead the spokesman answers with sarcasm and lack of concern. Consider the amount of fear generated and the number of work-hours wasted over something that could easily have been prevented.
"Louis Caldera, Director of White House Military Office says he authorized 'mission over New York,' apologizes."
Looks like they found a scapegoat! Let the spin begin!
Thanks, WSJ, for the good coverage of this disquieting incident. I've checked all day for another publication's take on it and on many not even a mention. I notice some comments make like it is nothing at all, but it is a big deal. Gibb's comments on it are pathetic.
I don't understand this whole apology thing. Apologize for what? What was done that deserve an apology? A bunch of people overreacted everyone else kept working?
I had my sister text in a panic as she evacuated her building this morning while I sat in midtown trying to figure out what was going on. Thank God it was just a stunt for our celebrity president. Who cares? New Yorkers care Steve.
Louis Caldera is a former Democratic State Assemblyman from California. He's now a White House staffer appointed by Obama.
Still think it's wrong to blame the White House?
Gibbs' sarastic answer pointing at the Air Force should get the Air Force an apology and Gibbs fired. Period. There has to be accountability on this one.
I cannot believe Gibbs' callousness and lack of seriousness when answering these questions. He's a dishonest, sarcastic and arrogant apologist who should be shown the door.
So, basically the terrorists have won. You cannot fly a HUGE American plane, with a presidential seal on the side over the greatest city in the world/country?
All of you who want to attack the president for some sort of error ought to look in the mirror. How sad is your life and your outlook that you cannot see that we should have something to be proud of? New York, PROUD, Air Force One, PROUD, USA, PROUD, Moving Forward, PROUD. Too bad there are too many people who want to live in fear.
Something doesn't smell right about this ...
What is the Big Deal here??!!!
The President stated that there is no longer a war on terror. Therefore, we were not to be supprised by this sort of incident. It that that simple and straightforward.
And how much carbon dioxide was emitted for the photo op?
Oh noooooo!!!!!! The sky is falling! We want answers! Give me a break... so what, they did a photo op or whatever over NYC. Between this swine flu thing and now this Air Force One thing it's obvious why the country is going down the tubes... exagerrated concerns. What a bunch of wimps! Just go to work and live your life.
Fired and Fired....
That's not acceptable Caldera - you should resign or be fired for what happened today - dumbest move I have seen in a long, long time!
May be this is the treatment for the swine flu - after all there are no health officials in this administrations....
I think Caldera should come to Broadway and Wall and apologize.
the real question is: who requested the photo op?
J.Canavan, I think people have a right to be concerned. I'm not sure if you live in New york or not but people here take it very seriously.
Obamy should be fired.
You mean to tell me the AirForce took his ride out for a spin and he was not aware of it!?
What a goofball and clown.
Hey j.canavan
So when they say "Ignorance is bliss," - I guess they are referring to you - correct? Just shut your eyes, keep your head down - continue to let the puppet master pull your strings .... sad people like you ....excatly NOT what this country was built on!
The cost of the idiodic flight notwithstanding, the stupidity of not notifying those most likely to be traumatized by the event is unforgiveable. Fire Caldera's sorry behind summarily.
Have they not heard of Photoshop?
It is time to blame Bush again!
Whatever happened to goverment "of the people, by the people, for the people?" It seems all we have now is government "to the people", in an anal sense.
How much carbon was spewed by the F-18 and The One's blinged out 747 during today's photo op? They tell you its a photo op but it was probably footage to be used in next summer's Hollywood blockbuster.
How many more hiccups can the Obama Administration have before the 100-day marker? Seriously, thoughtless, great question. I am sure it was our Ego-in-Charge.
Inexperience. Inexperience. Inexperience.
Geez - shaking hands with Chavez - embracing Cuba - taking Air Force One for a joyride over lower Manhattan - what next? I can't believe I actually voted for this screwy administration - wish I could go back and pull the "McCain tab" now
Just look at all the cons drooling all over this and blaming Obama for everything under the sun. Typical response from a marginalized, fringe party with no solutions for America. Just petty bickering and whining.
What was the carbon footprint of this little excursion? How much did it cost taxpayers to have a jumbo jet and two F-16s touring the airspace around lower Manhattan? How much time and money was lost in productivity from terrified workers in New York and New Jersey as a result? What a pathetic mess; this administration clearly has no feeling for Americans' concerns.
For those of you who continue to make comments on the order of "who cares?", below is video footage from Fox5. If you don't know what that is, you already lost your right to comment on whether or not New Yorkers have a right to be concerned. I was not in the City when 9/11 happened, but I work for a hedge fund in a landmark building now and we received several horrified phone calls from brokers downtown and in Jersey City. Our manager debated evacuating. It's not a joke, but I can see how things would look rosy from a suburban living room where Palestinians and Iranians only need a friendly handshake to stop wanting to send us to oblivion.
It's scary to think that someone who works for the Commander in Chief would actually authorize this flight.
All you Republicons need to sit down and shut up and give Obama a chance to succeed or it will be your fault that he failed.
I will bet you that this was far more than a "photo op" These people are lying through their teeth and think the American public is just that stupid. They promised jobs, money and a better life, and also added a bunch of photo ops to the gift they are giving us. You will see this also blow up into another problem for them.
They probably had some crazy on staff pilot take off with it and decide to not listen to their direction and headed off towards NYC. Why would they want a picture of their plane and fighters around NYC, can they find stock film or just animate it ? These guys are really something
Gibbs and Caldera are in over their heads. Caldera's position is that he did what was required of him. He is in the whitehouse yet he cannot to see the big picture or he just doesn't care. Caldera needs to go. Gibbs has no empathy. He only needed to acknowledge that yes he understands the distress this could cause. Gibbs needs to read a few more books on leadership and communication. Both Gibbs and Caldera need to go. They are in over their heads. Everything they deal with IS a major project with major change and citizen equity concerns. Some please queue Donald Thump.
Anonymous at 5:30 p.m. -
I think if Mr. Obama fails, it will be HIS fault. After all, HE won.
The embed of the video from Fox5 didn't work, so I'm trying a link. If this doesn't work go to myfoxny.com and click on the story in Local News "Bloomberg Furious About Flyover". In case you are one of those people who thinks this is an issue of Republican v. Democrat rather than common sense v. ignorance, he's our mayor here in New York. Try taking your head out of the left-wing sand and demanding a little responsibility from your government. A fall-guy with no explanation is not sufficient for the panic that was caused - New Yorkers have a right to know why this picture could possibly have been so important.
I suppose now that we see how both wreckless and powerful our leaders are when it comes to their agenda. What if that plane was ordered to divert or that the people on board were working for the same who attacked in 2001. This was a test most certainly to create fear and disruption on a small scale in concert with this new flu outbreak. Cui Bono? That is the phrase of the century.
Let's see if I've got this straight...
Top Secret memos on interrogation techniques need to be released for the public good, but flying a jumbo jet, (and if the President isn't on board, it IS just another airplane,) low over New York for a photo op requires the utmost secrecy...
CEO's BAD for flying to DC for hearings, but one of the President's airplanes buzzing the Statue of Liberty for some sort of publicity GOOD!
Really??? Can this administrations priorities truly be THAT screwed up???
This is not a partisan issue. This is wrong regardless who did it.
I work on the 40th floor of a Financial district building.
I was talking to a workmate and we saw the planes passing by. I grabbed my bag and ran downstairs in panic along with all my coworkers.
We were waiting on the street downstairs with many other concerned people from our building and neighboring buildings.
It took almost 40 minutes until we found out this was JUST and photo-op.
This should have been anounced before on the news so not to put the people in fear, especially in this area!!!
Re WH press spokesman Gibbs, he really is an arrogant, sarcastic and condescending individual. An odd choice for a WH spokesman.
Hey - most of you clowns voted for this arrogant jerk and his equally arrogant posse. NY & NJ are the bluest of the blue states.
Wait until he gets comfortable in his chair at 200 days! Then maybe they'll drop some white powder on the streets just to see if everyone is still alert. But wait - the war on terror is over - now it iis a war on man-made disasters.....which describe this Administration and Congress. Get used to such treatment.
I posted the last 2 Anonymous references to Fox 5 and I wanted to back up Andrea, who just corroborated what I was saying. If anyone in here who thinks demanding accountability is partisan doubts the truth of what we're saying, have some intellectual fortitude and curiosity and find out for yourselves - watch the video and see just how scared people were. Take the reins and demand something more of our government, or at least keep your condescension of the people who live this reality to yourselves.
What exactly is this photo-op and why was a F-16 shadowing Air Force One? Was the picture taken from the F-16 or Air Force One? Neither scenario makes sense. I suspect this was a favor to some Hollywood donor so they could get some great pics for some Harrison Ford action flick.
Yes - you have it exactly right!!
Remarkable, isn't it! Other people's money, and other people's sensitivities. Through the Looking Glass.
Unfortunately (?) he has fulfilled all the charges of making a felony (terroristic) threat - this translates to: "it's clear that the mission created confusion and disruption" - by his own admission.
I just saw a plane flying over my house.
Nostro, I was wondering about that Hollywood favor too. I can't believe Air Force 1.1 and fighter escorts for a presidential infomercial, this whole thing is so bizarre. Still waiting to see good pics of AF 1.1

Let's see if I've got this straight…
Top Secret memos on interrogation techniques need to be released for the public good, but flying a jumbo jet, (and if the President isn't on board, it IS just another airplane,) low over New York for a photo op requires the utmost secrecy…
CEO's BAD for flying to DC for hearings, but one of the President's airplanes buzzing the Statue of Liberty for some sort of publicity GOOD!
Thank You, David, for putting this in perspective! Well said!
Fire Caldera at once. The government needs to dismiss incompetents. just as in businesses
Just another "transparent" response from the Obaman's.....nice. Change...yeah, right.
Just another "transparent" response fropm the Obaman's. Change, yeah...right.
Obama can't afford even the slightest suspicion that he harbors incompetent people in his efficient administration. Caldera should have been asked to resign immediately. Only by showing rightful presidential assertiveness, compassion for the rightfully terrified people in lower Manhattan, and demanding strict accountability can Obama keep proving that the past eight years of irrationally mindless behavior are truly a thing of the past.
Wow, People will fall for any cover story. There is no way this was a legit "mission." Sounds like even the political hack is sending a SOS signal calling it a mission. Where are the photo's? Let me guess, they sent them out to ritz photo.
I agree with cornel. Obama should be the first to go.
I work at 2 broadway. I was on the 29th floor. I looked up from my work, The jet was coming right at us. Unbelievable!!! It still hasn't hit me. Then it turned sharply. If it wasn't for my slow pda phone/camera.. I would have detailed photos of the underbelly. People who watched it coming from far left their offices. I didn't have enough time to do anything. I turned to Sandra and said " there's a plane heading toward us"!! Anyway, let's hope they are testing a defense system on let's say Gov. Island. Any other reason would be stupid, stupid, dumb.
Incident ? What incident ? So what ? Big deal !
If it was a real incident that would have taken place , every government officials would have been informed of the situation and on alert .
This is just when I inform my spouse that I am going to the loo to get regular , she respond by saying :" too much information ...."
Boats gotta float, planes gotta fly
republican losers want a reason to cry
Can't stop loving that Obama of mine
and the stealth black helicopters were there also.....
Where does Obama find all these low-grade garbage people? If Obama is sincere about accountability in government, Louis The Loser Caldera will be fired with minimal delay. Plainly, this guy's judgement is wildly defective.
.....and with the men in black .
If you had been doing your work and not goofing off you would have missed everything?
You survived 4/27. Congratulations
I can't believe this... a lot of people are just questioning this... and there are still these people that want to turn a blind eye to the Obama administration... and think that people who panicked? You have got to be kidding me.... i am just absolutely blown away by these individuals who will continue to make excuses for this guy
1. Where are the photos?
2. As posted before, why can't you photoshop this?
3. Hollywood favor? See #2
4. Who paid for this?
5. Why is it right to fly a plane toward a building full of people but you can't wave a gun at someone's face? I am sure if you waved a gun at the white house, you would be shot or man handled.
" On October 30th, 1938, the United States experienced mass hysteria--most pronounced on the east coast in New York and New Jersey--in response to a radio broadcast put on by Orson Welles and his Mercury Theater On The Air. The public reaction has prompted decades of research into mass hysteria, been used as a model by the military around the world to design information warfare against enemy troops and civilian populace, and used as the most compelling reason to protect the public from the knowledge of the presence of aliens on Earth. "
Not everyone lost his cool. Mr. Shimon, the manager of the barbershop where people fled on Monday, was present for the attacks in 2001, and in fact at that time worked in a shop even closer to the World Trade Center than his current one. He watched the towers fall that day.
So did the events of Monday scare him? "To tell you the truth, not really," Mr. Shimon said. "I didn't think it was such a big deal. I'm a New Yorker."
I think the President spokesman Mr. Gibbs needs to stop smiling and joking all the time, however, may God bless the United States and President Obama.
"I don't know of every movement of Air Force One ..." ?
Well it's your job to find the hell out. I can't believe this guy has this attitude. He's representing the White House. Obama should apologize and then apologize for this guy's behavior to boot.

Felony (Terroristic) Threat
(a) A person commits an offense if he threatens to commit ANY offense involving violence to any person or property with INTENT to:
(1) cause a reaction of ANY type to his threat by an official or volunteer agency organized to deal with emergencies;
(2) place ANY person in fear of imminent serious bodily injury;
(3)prevent or interrupt the occupation or use of a building, room, place of assembly, place to which the public has access, place of employment or occupation, aircraft, automobile, or other form of conveyance, or other public place;
(4) cause IMPAIRMENT or INTERRUPTION of public communications, public transportation, public water, gas, or power supply or OTHER PUBLIC SERVICE;
(5) place the public or a substantial group of the public in fear of serious bodily injury; or
(6) INFLUENCE the CONDUCT or ACTIVITIES of a BRANCH or AGENCY of the FEDERAL GOVERMENT, the STATE, or a POLITICAL SUBDIVISION or the STATE.
Neither the White House nor the F.A.A. explained why the mission was deemed a secret, even though officials conceded the primary purpose was picture taking... and
Officials at the Department of Transportation and at the Pentagon each denied responsibility for the secrecy.
We conclude:
The LACK OF WARNING MEANT that, Notify NYC, a pilot emergency service, intended to quickly alert New Yorkers who sign up, did not send out text messages and e-mail messages explaining the flyover until well after the exercise had ended.
The Threat (Warning) of NONDISCLOSURE essential to a public's well being constitutes felony threat.
On his radio show today, Rush Limbaugh went on a long rant about how anything associated with President Obama ends up failing. He used newspapers and CNN as his primary examples, but then turned to some far more inflammatory (and completely inexplicable) examples.
"[E]verywhere Obama is spreading Obamaism, there is a deadly disease taking place, either in the TARP community or in the newspaper business," he said. "Obama goes to Mexico -- they have an earthquake. Obama goes to Mexico -- get pig flu."
What absolute, utter STUPIDITY! I have NEVER been more ashamed of the person occupying the office of the U.S. President or his accompanying "administration". There is no valid reason or intelligent excuse for such irresponsible behavior on the part of the F.A.A. and those with the current power to "control" it.
I just saw another plane flying over my house.
Hush, Your comment is even more empty than that one since not one of the points you listed have any relevance to what you are attempting to call a threat in your "conclusions".
So another plane lands ...
The times they are a'changing
PS. Get rid of your tinfoil hat ... you look silly.
Come on people , let's get a life .... It's much ado about nothing .
Wake up my friends!
I have some interesting calculations :
The date is 4/27. Check.
2 + 7 = 9
4 (The month) + 7 = 11
A veiled threat against Obama. We did it once, we can do it again??? Is that it?
No toture hearings????
just for starters.....
The lack thereof (disclosure) constitutes felony threat.
'It's ok", your hat and statements fit you perfectly..they lack nothing...be loud, proud and..pointless.
The suggestion that Mr.Caldera should be fired is preceded by the demand that Mr.Caldera should resign.C'mon,anyone with a brain stem knows that this will be President Obama's preference...or should be.A man that oversees the,uh-hum,FAA, just confessed that he failed in sound judgment;there was no reason to keep this away from public knowledge.He needs to do the right thing and step down.Give us someone with sound judgment,please.The stakes are too highI I hope you have learned something,too,President Obama.God bless America.
It was wrong for Obama to fly a plane a few feet above the buildings in Manhattan but Rove made Bushy land on an aircraft carrier and Obama was just taking a page from the architect's manual on how to steal elections. Why is anyone surprised at Obama's bravado tactic when the Repiglicons mastered them for the past 8 years. Give Obama a chance and let his agenda get through.
O must be thrilled simulated symbolic attack on the Statue of Liberty got done in time for his 100 day highlight reel !
Robert Gibbs, Louis Caldera, Nepolitano, Geithner, Pelosi,Feinstein, O's team ,worry, the worst is yet to come. Still no head of Health and Human Services, no Surgeon General among other key positions.
This episode, the release of sensitive security info., attacking veterans as UnAmerican. Common sense is not apparent in this admin.
Mr. Caldera should be given the opportunity to resign before he is fired.
No explanation is necessary.
Mr. Caldera has accepted the blame and must not be left in a position to repeat such a mistake.
For the bleeding hearts, losing this job is not in any way similar to being tried and convicted of a crime. Losing a job is a just consequence for his blunder.
One more example of the poor decisions of O appointees and blunders being made in Washington. We don't need change, we need reality.
what if obama WAS there? will that sound as a new JFK failed version?
who is to say that the big O knew anything about it..
or for that matter had any part in the decision.. there are things that happen in a BIG government that happen without the leaders knowledge or control...
i am a skeptic in general and do not hesitate to call a spade a spade... i am still waiting and seing.. on the big O..
but from what i see so far he is trying to do the right things.. i am happy to wait and watch.... it is doubtful that the big O can be worse that GW.. ( he should be charged and convicted and incarcerated for his actions.)
this is a time for rebuilding the nation .. i believe that even though we may have disagreements we should help this guy out..
demonstrate a bit of restraint and practice patients... reserve our collective judgment until the facts are drawn out...
mistakes happen and there is a learning curve.. OK, he has made a mistake. this counts as experience.. if he learns from it he will be better at his job.. if not then he should go..
this incident has shown a breakdown in communication that must be repaired..
if this had been a real attack .. where would we be now.. let us learn and move on.. reprisals are not warranted..
the main message to be read..
lighten up world.. stop being so damn reactionary.. enhance your calm..
just my two cents..
As citizens we have more pressing issues to think about and decide upon in the coming few years than an AF bad move. Let's leave gossip to gossipers and get our priorities right: the upcoming state elections for one!!
Hey JASD, you said "it is doubtful that the big O can be worse that GW". Obamanation is morally reprehensible. As some one said earlier, chastise corporate titans for using a private jet, but take Air Force One out for a joy ride is OK. Obambi likes taking big blue out for a ride every chance he gets. This falls squarely on his lap regardless of what the Obamimites do to try and defend him. Obamanation, admit you are wrong tomorrow night on national TV and fall on your sword so this country can move on!
1) Don't blame the US Air Force or even the , the plane is tasked by the White House Military Office (WHMO) at the direction of the President or his designate (generally the Chief of Staff or his deputy)
2) Caldera said that he approved the mission. True enough, but that was after someone came to him and directed him to come up with a "photo-op" that is likely for a political reason (first 100 days?). In reality, the order was simply processed through the WHMO. Place the blame where it lies if you are unhappy. Why beat up the clerk?
3) People see a clearly marked plane and start wetting themselves? C'mon.
It would take a computer nerd 5 minutes on Photoshop software to come up with a picture of Air Force One flying above the Statue of Liberty. Scheduling an actual 747 flight to do this had to cost hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars, in addition to the panic in lower Manhattan. Whoever came up with this photo op idea should lose his job, and so should anyone along the chain of command who OK'd it when an inexpensive and no-risk Photoshop option would have sufficed.
If Mr Caldera doesn't have the brains to understand what terrorism does to americans, maybe a little WATER BOARDING would help his memory.. How Stupid can you be!
geezzz!!! i failed to take into account the massive quantity of racist, conspiratists..
get real, after the crap that gw pulled, one would think that the big O's office would be under even more scrutiny than ever..
early in my life my father sent me to a particular summer camp in warrior Alabama,..
the hope in his eyes was that i would conform to his primitive xenophobic ideals..
it was his greatest mistake. he had already taken me around the world and allowed me to explore different cultures.
i am certian if my father ever met my first girlfriend he would have died of a massive heart attack..
i had by then already experienced racism by being the sole Caucasian in an otherwise all black school in Virginia.
my eyes were opened.. and he tried hard to close them..
i later joined the army and received the indoctrination that comes with it.. again they tried to orient my philosophy to fit their mold.. it failed..
i had worked as a bartender in a gay bar ,( i am hetro) i have a lot of non hetro friends..
i had friends that are Russian ,Chinese ,Vietnamese ,African, Egyptian, Iranian, Samoan, Columbian.. and more..
the thought that those evil ruskies are going to slice my innards and rape me were by that time to me at least outdated comments of crap.. ( it is unfortunate that the military routinely brainwashes naive recruits with xenophobic dribble)
so i have a unique position to speak from..
people are people there is little difference between them once you remove the barriers caused by language, culture, skin color, economic disposition... and the total menace of religious difference.
strip away those barriers and at the heart they are no different.. each person has their fears and strengths.. they each need reassurance that they will be free to conduct their lives in peace and tranquility.
their methods may be different but if you look at the root it is the same..
it is unfortunate that people like 39 cents have to live in the fear he or she creates..
it is also unfortunate that their are people that would abuse the authorities they have been entrusted..
this sort of behaviors perpetuates the myths and fears associated.. there are laws on the books that are designed to punish those in power that abuse them..
unfortunately the FBI has it's head so far up it's ass that when given hard evidence and a road map laying out the details .. they simply refuse to formally investigate.. ( they are corrupt themselves) thus allow the corruption to perpetuate...
the question of just who guards the guards arises.. i would hope that the big O firmly and consistently presses for a gross change in policy and returns justice to America..
i have seen first hand the department of injustice.. and the politics within.. it is despicable..
forget the forgin policy.. rebuild the honor within the country..and we can accomplish anything...
forget the hysteria , the fear.. lets put it into the past and move forward bravely and boldly ..
i write this expecting flames from small minded simpletons ... i would love to have a discussion with open minded people with honest differences of opinion..
that said, i refuse to have a battle of whits with the unarmed dim whits obsessed with fear and paranoia, driven by the muckraking urges of uneducated primates.. or other dullards.. dittoheads. or fans of talk radio who cannot think for themselves.. aka..sheeple..lemmings and the like..
i do hate spell check...and auto-correct..
but you get my drift.. give the man a chance.. do not cast stones in a glass house.. .. ect..
New Yorkers against Louis Caldera
Plane stupidity, err plain. The area is a no fly zone for a great reason. One would think common sense would have at least prevailed.
It seems none of those involved had thought of ADOBE---then HEADS SHOULD ROLL---from Washington to NY & NJ! These are brains our tax dollars pay for?
It is only when government officials are held accountable for their actions and decisions, and SWIFT consequences are applied that we will begin to see our government reform! Louis Caldera should not only be fired but be held personally responsible for paying back the $328,000 price tag for this photo op! I could have created the same photograph in Photoshop for about $50. Unfortunately the terror and scars this ineptness has created cannot be removed! Completely unacceptable! Typical of our tax dollars at work!
Great! It's a "big plus" for Obama! Probably while he took a nap his people decided to have some fun! When the cat's away, the mice will play.))))))
But shame on them! Its totally irresponsible! They should be publicly punished & everybody has to learn a lesson!
President Obama had to know this was going on. He needs to know where his planes are at all times just in case he needs them in an emergency. I just heard on the news, this little stunt cost all of us another $130,000 to add to the $10 trillion he has already spent. Not to mention the carbon emmissions for this & all he flew on Earth Day.
Caldera's approval was an administrative task.
What reporters should be asking is who requested the mission.
My money is on Axelrod -- he's the publicity guy, and whoever requested such a mission had to have a lot of juice.
Classifying the mission would be the responsibility of the local commander. The local commander of the White House is Barack Obama.
Move on..
Nobody cares about this.
dejense de joder facistas cretinos
It has been said that success has many fathers but failure is an orphan. Unfortunately, we are a society obsessed with this illusion of success. Yes, mistakes are made but real leaders take responsibility. In the end, these are the people we need when it counts because they have learned to make decisions and not just avoid them; learned how to deal with the pressures without being pressured; and learned how to maintain their integrity with a sense of humility. What are we teaching any organization or society as a whole when we continually tear down our leaders for taking responsibility for making a mistake. It leaves us with organizations filled with pseudo leaders whose resumes are built on the fact that they never supposedly made a mistake let alone took responsibility for anything. These are serious times and we need mature people who are willing to take responsibility for mistakes and learn from it. My concern is not with the one person who took responsibility. Rather, I am more concerned why he is the only one willing to say "it was me, I messed up, I take responsibility" Harry Truman famously said that "the buck stops here" which meant that he took on the final responsibility and that it ended with him, but that buck sure as hell passed thru a lot of other hands before it ever got to his desk.
way to put it matt.
this is very similar to the message i was trying to communicate. although i was not so eloquent as you..
responsibility is a dangerous thing in today's society.. and it exactly what we need...
i agree with the discontent with those who passed the buck.. this is a cowardly damaging behavior.. and those who passed the buck should do the right thing and leave.. hunting them down and firing them serves no purpose.. they should just leave..
i have made a ton of mistakes.. i live with them.. and i am moving on.. the mistakes i made have made me a better person..
the law enforcement officers who pursued my mistakes did so out of retaliation and self serving motivation..
( i caught them stealing .. and they pursued possession charges long after i turned the contraband over after they left it for me to find. they knew that i had only obtained possession by means of a power of attorney ,, and the material was not made by me,wanted by me, nor requested by me...
they knew that they left it.. they were negligent and i had them squarely pinned for theft..
but they refused to take responsibility for their own actions and in fact deflected the path of justice and did harm..
i spent 3 years fighting and in the end mentally lost the will to fight because they threatened my wife .. and me ... so i took a 1 count plea to 18u.s.c.4 and took a 3 year probation..
my probation officer is great.. he knows the truth and leaves me alone and i stay out of trouble.. that is my nature..
it must be said that the politics of my situation went way out of control..
the first prosecutor lied lied to the grand jury, abused his discretion and had a sexual affair with my investigator.
the judge in my case had and demonstrated conflicts.. ( she did not recuse herself when she considered testimony given to her outside of court.) .and other statements she made but sealed the comments.
the u.s attorney in the case when approached to dismiss the charges as they did not merit prosecution refused because her team was invested in pursuing the case ( for political and personal reasons) on no less than 3 separate occasions, by 3 different attorneys..
i have seen how passing the buck affects people.. personally..
we all are guilty of it.. in some sense...
i guess i am not moving on in some areas of my life.. i do feel let down by the system.. i feel hurt by others in authority.. and i feel disenfranchised as a citizen..
i hope that one day the truth comes out in my case and the wrongs are corrected... and my life is restored..
until then i will wait and see.. i will continue to keep myself out of trouble and once my probation is over .. and my ability to travel is restored.. .. if the wrongs are not corrected by then .. i will leave.. disenchanted and disheartened .. and find a new country .. perhaps a small one where the access to government protection is less difficult...
we are all guaranteed equal protection under the law.. what a crock..
i just hope that the big O helps to correct the problems within..
Hey JASD, you're too easy when chum is thrown out.
I have lived in 4 continents in the past 40 years, am multi-lingual, and have learned to understand and appreciate diverse cultures.
I just don't like Obambi. I don't think he has the nation's best interest at heart. I think he is a meglomaniac. That doesn't mean I live in fear. I am more of a socially conservative libertarian than a republican by political bent. GW was a bumbling buffoon but he didn't cause the current mess. He is a convenient scapegoat for the mistakes and largesse of congress and for us - the faceless mob.
The adulation that is poured upon Obambi is mind blowing. He still hasn't DONE ANYTHING! Maybe that's what a good president should do - nothing but talk.
39 Percent ..... get a new moniker according to latest gallup your name is 35 percent
If Bush did it ,the newspapers would have headlines for the next six months wanting heads to roll. Since it is the Savior who did it no problem,lets move on. Newspapers I wouldn`t wrap fish in them, it might cause the fish to smell.
Too bad Mr. Caldera had to be a sacrificial lamb over this ill-advised stunt. The President is distancing himself from the incident, but he has created an Administration that acts as though 911 never happened, and no stunt is too costly or arrogant for the Ego-in-Chief to approve. Obama should be grateful to the softball press, who has given him a pass on his version of "Mission Accomplished."

Ratings: CBS Holds Steady Versus World Series, Super Fun Night Flat, Arrow Dips, SVU Drops
CBS' Wednesday crime dramas failed to get beaned by Fox's World Series coverage.
Opening the Eye's night, Survivor — with 9.4 million total viewers and a series-low 2.3 rating, per finals — shed some eyeballs but was flat in the demo as Game 1 was just getting underway. Criminal Minds (11.5 mil/2.7) held steady in the demo while scoring its largest audience since March 20.
Similarly, CSI's 300th episode (10.4 mil/2.1) copped its largest audience since April 10 and inched up a tenth in the demo.
With 14.4 million viewers and a 4.2 rating, Fox's World Series coverage was up some 16 percent versus last year's Giants/Tigers Game 1. (12.2 mil/3.6).
NBC's dramas, however, took a hit. After Revolution delivered a 5.0/1.4 (dipping in audience but steady in the demo), SVU's Weiner riff (5.5 mil/1.4) sagged more than 20 percent. Ironside's final episode capped the night with 3.9 mil and a 0.8, down two tenths.

Over on ABC, The Middle (8.2 mil/2.2) was flat, Back in the Game (6.2 mil/1.7) dipped two tenths, Modern Family (10.3 mil/3.9) dropped two tenths and Super Fun Night (6 mil/2.1) held steady, its first instance of not sliding week-to-week. Nashville matched last week's 5.5 mil/1.6.
RELATED | Kim Roots' Nashville Recap: Rayna's Back, Y'All!
The CW's Arrow (2.8 mil/0.9) was down two tenths in the demo, while The Tomorrow People (1.9 mil/0.7, per finals) ticked down one tenth.
