To Robertin: Unlike Johnny Knoxville, you have nothing to apologize for. Just wanted to point out that at least ONE "oversight" we're being ragged about WASN'T an oversight after all!

I gotta admit, I saw the Ringer and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I didn't really care for Johnny Knoxville ( He was better in this than Hazzard, though), but Brian Cox was awesome. The movie was good when he was on-screen, otherwise it dragged.

Please, admin of this forum! Could you please explain how come someone could add more than 200 votes to Keanu Reeves in less than 24 hours? Probably it was some Keanu hater with so much time in hands to that but, is that accepted? because, if so, this Poll is totally a wasted time for people who really comes here, add a vote and try to discuss it.
DEAR Pjam Fan (from HeadRAZZberry): We are currently attempting to figure out HOW our Polls are (apparently) being hacked, and what (if anything) we can do to prevent it. We share your concerns on this matter...

Michael Jackson? Please. I never saw Michael Jackson in that performance. I think you fellas have Michael Jackson on the brain to even go there.
As for Keanu Reeves, he simply doesn't belong, and from previous nominations, I'd say you pretty much hate him and it's a personal thing. Why?

It´s really strange with Keanu Reeves. He was really good in Constantine movie. And Tom Cruise was Good too. War of The Worlds was good. Kennedy, Slater, Ferrell and Schneider are in right places.

Orlando should soooo be up there.. let me count the ways:
Reviews from Kingdom of Heaven:
The hairless whelp barely registers on-screen. Even perched atop Golgotha in a moment of what we're told is religious contemplation, Bloom looks like a kid staring out the window during study hall.
The dispiriting result of Bloom's blandness is that in a movie touted as the first big-ticket picture of the summer, even Edward Norton's leper king proves more interesting than Bloom's French blacksmith. And Norton spends the entire movie behind a mask.
New Yorker - Rouses the tremulous defenders of Jerusalem with all the assurance of a head prefect addressing a school assembly.
And let's not forget Elizabethtown...
New York Times - Mr. Bloom, in contrast, cute as he is, is all blank stares and shy smiles. Perhaps Drew is meant to be dazed by shock and grief; perhaps he is supposed to be dumbstruck by his noisy Kentucky relations and Claire, his chatterbox love interest with whom he can't seem to get off the cellphone. It's hard to tell, and harder to care, as Mr. Bloom distinguishes himself, in this performance as in most of his others, by his steadfast reluctance to explore his range as an actor.
The bad reviews just go on... and on... and on... Please, somebody finally give this guy attention for the right reasons - totally inappropriate and irritating screen presence if one was ever handed to an audience on a platter.
But anyway, it's just a poll. *deep breath... heh heh*

Houston, we have a hacker. I saw the votes for
Jamie Kennedy go up over 200 in a matter OF
minutes while there were virtually no votes for
anyone else and no votes in the other polls.

Okay. Apparently the board is under seige by a lot of Keannu fans.
All you have to know about Constantine the movie is this.
The character of John Constantine in the comics, was created by a British bloke named Alan Moore. Alan is famous for being of the opinion that it is impossible to do justice to a story written for a book in a film adaptation.
I cannot find the interview where he said this, but his feeling is that the media are two different things and that the best you can hope for is something like Blade Runner... which has sod all to do with the story that inspired it, but which emphasizes the same themes and ideas the author intended.
He has refused any money he was owed for the adaptations of his works for these reasons. But he has also allowed them to put his name in the credits of these various films, though he himself refuses to see the movies.
And the movies that were based off of his books? Some old Razzie nominees and contenders. From Hell. The League of Extraordinary Gentlmen. And the upcoming V for Vendetta. Great books. Not so good movies.
Anyway, Constantine was different. Constantine is the only movie Alan Moore threatened to sue to have his name removed from. THAT is how horrible the movie is in comparison to the comics.
And let me tell you... even ignoring the lack of a British accent, the lack of wit and the fact that he runs around with a magical shotgun and everything else that flies in the face of the very British, very sarcastic and very not-a-fighter John Constantine of the comics... Keannu made a total bollocks of the movie.

Starman, I am not a fan of Keanu and esp. not of Constantine - far from it - but I remember the story about Alan Moore different.
Alan Moore was pissed about LoEG and wanted to erase his name and doesn't want any money from now on! He mentioned that this was NOT against Constantine. The lawsuit was settled at the time of Constantine's release.

Alan Moore wasn't happy with LoEG, this is true. But he didn't actually threaten suit over that one. I think he requested his name be taken off the DVD, but it's been a while since I read his thoughts on this. He did, however, I distinctly remember, threaten a suit with Constantine.
As it stands, Constantine is the only one he asked to have his name removed from BEFORE the release of the film after reading the script. Last I heard, I believe he has allowed his credit to stand in V for Vendetta, despite being rather annoyed at how Joel Silver has been promoting the film.

Alan Moore is always pissed about adaptations of his movies, that's not news. IMO he should not sell the rights for them if he will be badmouthing every project that's made. And don't come here saying that he doesn't get money for them, because he gets. And he wont have his name attached to V for Vendetta neither, despite that early reviews are raving about the movie and how much it's faithful to the comic. And Constantine, despite the changes, was a hell of a good movie. Keanu can't be blamed because of the changes, it's utterly ridiculous! it's like to blame Depp because his Willy Wonka was like night and day if compated with the original character!
And someone really believes that Reeves, Depp and Cruise were worse in his movies than Paul Walker, Orlando Bloom, Ashton Kutcher, who are not even in that list, or Will Ferrel (in a bad, bad year), or Johnny Knoxville? Those 3 are only in that list because they are huge stars and some people can't live with that fact and try to attack them because of other motives and not because of their acting or projects. And because nominating huge stars The Razzies get so much more media than some C-list actor. It's politics folks. Only that.

Uh... Alan Moore doesn't have any say on the sale of rights. All of the movie rights for these various books he wrote are held by the publishing houses that published the books. You honestly think he'd let them make movies only to complain about them if he had the power to stop them?
There were also raving reviews about how faithful Hitchhikers Guide was to the book... mostly written by people who hadn't read the book. Early reviews don't mean Jack. The most well reviewed test-audience wise movie of 1989 was UHF and it did horribly at the box office compared to its projections.
It was HELL, I'll grant you that. A good movie, hardly.
Keannu can't be blamed for the writing or the direction but he gave a flat, unemotional performance even if you take the movie as a seperate entity from the books.
And I do not believe I said one word about Willy Wonka.
There's also the simple fact that MORE PEOPLE HAVE SEEN THOSE MOVIES, so more people are likely to vote for them.
I don't even know who Paul Walker is... so yeah, I'm gonna vote for Keannu and Cruise because I saw Constantine (for free, thankfully) and got dragged to War of the Worlds. And they stunk. That's my opinion. I'm stating it. If you think they are good actors, fine. But don't go harassing me or anyone else because we disagree with you. If you have a problem with me stating my opinion, then I'm not gonna bother responding to anything you have to say because then it's going to be teaching pigs to ride bicycles time.

I'm sorry, but they are only being sold because the author agreed with that at first place and, in accordance with the basic legislation, received for those rights.So, if they are being adapted into movies, Moore knew at first that it could be made and agreed with that. If he is so against any change that everybody in the world knows Hollywood loves to do with any material, he should not agree in sell the rights or do what Frank Miller, for example, is doing, following the process of adaptation since start to finish and only allowing the project to be made with his approval. To bad mouth every project, refusing any participation (and he was approached by Vendetta producers, for example), sounds pretty incoherent to me. And I'm a fan of Moore's work, yes, but that attitude sounds anti-professional and this is my opinion.
Well, he sold the rights of them! The man isn't an idiot by any means so he knows a producer can make anything of his writting if he refuses to even talk about a project. It's very ingenuous to think that Moore is a Hollywood victim...far from that.
Maybe they don't mean jack at the end but early reviews for Vendetta are from fans of the original comic book and it's known that The Warchowski approached Moore about the project. They show respect for the material and Moore could at least wait to see the movie (a thing I don't even believe he does) to bad mouth the project.
I'm not a fan of the comic. Tried to follow some material on the web and wasn't interested at all. But liked the movie. I consider the best of the year? No. But bad? Not even near. And Keanu gave a good performance for my taste. I was connected with the character and I thought his characteristics were quite fitting with the character I saw on the big screen. No big deal about him and in my book the man doesn't deserve to be in that list this year.
Like I said before, I was ranting in general, not directly to your post. But I read complaints against Depp's Wonka based on the original character. That's all.
Well, I don't get it. How many people actually saw The Mask 2? Why is the guy so front loaded? How many saw Stealth? Much more saw Into the Blue and Paul Walker isn't in that list! Much more saw Cruzade and Elizabethtown and Bloom got some of the worst reviews of the year and his name isn't there! So Cruise, Reeves and Depp are there only because it's more fun to put A-List names and not because they are worse than the others.
That's OK and I respect your opinion, but we have to agree that there are much more actors in movies much worse, with much worse works last year who deserved to be there and they aren't. And the excuse that those movies were seen by more people isn't fair, as we knows it's a poll for worst leading actor and not worst leading actor in the most seen movies of the year...
Well, I guess you already understood my point and know I wasn't "harassing" your opinion. As you have the right (and everyone here) to post your's, I have mine.

This... is an amazing idea. At that scale and with those images, you're on a roll.
I have a few questions/suggestions.
Where on the continent does the sun rise through the middle of the world? I don't see anywhere that seems to look like that. For that matter, where does it set?
How do seasons work? Why is that little bit up top white? This isn't a spherical world, so it has no axis to make seasons...is there a canonical explanation for this?
Lastly, how did you do the coastlines? Just wondering.

On October 9, 2013, at approximately 12:44 a.m., a female victim met with a deputy at the Sheriff's Office substation on 8th Street. She told deputies that the father of her 11 month old infant had taken the child and was traveling to Mexico. The victim stated that while she was en route to the substation, the suspect rammed her vehicle multiple times in an attempt to prevent her from notifying law enforcement. Moments later, the suspect vehicle was observed traveling at a high rate of speed by responding deputies. Deputies attempted to stop the vehicle; however, the suspect refused to stop and attempted to ram one of the patrol vehicles, forcing the deputy off the road way.
The San Luis Port of Entry was notified due to the suspect managing to elude deputies. A short time later, the suspect ran through the San Luis POE, where spike strips had been deployed by Customs and Border Protection agents. The vehicle failed to stop and also ran through the Mexican Customs POE into Mexico. Mexico authorities gave chase and located the abandoned vehicle a short time later. The victims' brother went to the suspect's father's residence in San Luis, Mexico and located the child. A short time later the child and mother were reunited. The child was unharmed.
Suspect: Raul Tejeda, 23 year old, Hispanic male, 6'ft tall, 250 lbs. He is wanted for kidnapping and aggravated assault.
Raul Tejeda
The Yuma County Sheriff's Office is currently investigating the incident. Anyone with any information concerning this investigation or the whereabouts of Tejeda is asked to contact the Yuma County Sheriff's Office at (928) 783-4427 or 78-CRIME to remain anonymous.

Approximately 15 million years ago, in what is now known as Australia, there lived the bird Bullockornis, which stood approximately 2.5 meters (8ft 2in) tall. The flightless bird, now extinct, is believed to have weighed up to 250kg (550 lbs). The bird featured a skull with a large beak, ideal for shearing, which indicates the bird may have been carnivorous. According to Wikipedia, The birds skull is larger than that of many small horses.
Many paleontologists believe that Bullockornis was related to geese and ducks. This generic relationship, in addition to the birds tremendous size and skull beak, is why Bullockornis eventually received the nickname The Demon Duck of Doom.
Imagine one of these primordial creatures chasing you down a block, or using their massive beak to tear open your chest. After all, they were carnivorous, and standing approximately eight feet tall, there are a few creatures who would have taken on a flock of these birds.
That's a fear you don't see featured prominently in Halloween props: avian. More haunted houses needed to follow in Alfred Hitchcock's footsteps. That man understood what it meant to use birds to scare audiences. If anyone uses birds in their haunt, let me know, because I demand more avian!


text: Triggerfinger is a Flemish rock band from Antwerp, Belgium, formed in 1998. The band consists of vocalist and guitarist Ruben Block, bassist Paul Van Bruystegem and Mario Goossens as drummer. The band gained a small amount of popularity while performing prior to the band's debut album. They released their self-titled debut album Triggerfinger in 2004, after previously having released the singles Inner Peace and Camaro from the album. The album was well-received by rock fans, with the band's sound being compared to bands such as Queens of the Stone Age, by the younger audience, and Led Zeppelin, by the older rock fans. The album was followed by a live album called Faders Up, which featured several of their previous album's songs as well as a few covers of other bands. The following year, they released their next studio album called What Grabs Ya?, which, despite efforts, failed to make the band break through in Belgium and the Netherlands. In 2009, What Grabs Ya? was re-issued, with several new songs added to the tracklist.

- Harry Potter: "Where are we, exactly?"
- Albus Dumbledore: "Well, I was going to ask you that. Where would you say that we are?"
- Harry Potter: "It looks like King's Cross station. Except a lot cleaner and empty, and there are no trains as far as I can see."
- — Harry Potter finds himself in limbo.[src]
Limbo is a state of being that exists between life and death. Its appearance is different for each person who visits it.[1]
In May of 1998, Harry Potter allowed himself to be struck by a Killing Curse cast by Lord Voldemort in an attempt to protect his friends and loved ones and to destroy the piece of Voldemort's soul that resided within him. What neither he nor Voldemort realised, however, was that when Voldemort used Harry's blood in his resurrection in 1995, he unwittingly took Lily Potter's magical protection of Harry into himself as well, thereby tethering Harry's life to his own.
Harry awoke to find himself lying naked in a formless mist. As he adjusted to his surroundings, he wished to himself that he were clothed, and as this wish came to him a short ways away a pile of clean fresh clothes appeared. After putting the clothes on, the mist began to take shape into a copy of King's Cross Station, Harry saw a stunted, whimpering child-like form lying on the ground, for which he felt both pity and revulsion. He also saw Albus Dumbledore, his deceased mentor, and the two had a long talk in which Dumbledore answered many of Harry's questions and told him that he was not actually dead. As a soul that was whole and complete, Harry was given the choice to return to the world of the living to finally stop Voldemort, or to board a train and "go on".[2] Harry chose to return, and when he stood against Voldemort in Hogwart's Great Hall, Harry warned him that he had seen what fate awaited Riddle when he finally died, unless he were to attempt to mend his broken soul through remorse.
With the destruction of all of his Horcruxes, when Voldemort's Killing Curse rebounded and finally ended his life once and for all, his broken and mangled soul[3] was forced to exist in the stunted form Harry saw in King's Cross, unable to move on or return as a ghost.[4]
In Dante Alighieri's Inferno, Limbo is the first circle of Hell. It is where pagans who were good people go, because they did not believe in the Judeo-Christian God. The word itself derives from the Latin word, limbus, meaning "edge, border". So Latin "in limbo" came to mean "in a condition of neglect or oblivion". The word is entirely unrelated to the Muggle dancing game, limbo, which derives from West Indian roots (same as "limber").
Behind the scenes
- It is not specified if all souls of the dead pass through Limbo before moving on, or if Harry's visit there was due to the unique circumstances that tethered both Voldemort and himself to life.
- When Graham Montague was trapped in the broken Vanishing Cabinet, he was described as being in limbo. However, that term does not refer to this place, but rather being stuck between Hogwarts Castle and Borgin and Burkes, unable to pass into either.
- In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, Harry wakes up in limbo in his clothes (different clothes, however, to the ones he was wearing in the Forbidden Forest) rather than being naked like in the book. This was likely done for censorship reasons.
- It is unknown if the mangled form of Voldemort's soul was a standard fate that all Horcrux creators were given at death, or it was unique in Voldemort's case, given the nature of his many crimes over his lifetime and the creation of more Horcruxes than anyone else:
- It is interesting to note that Voldemort's soul in Limbo greatly resembles the rudimentary body that Voldemort used during the period from 1994-1995. Whether this is a coincidence or intentional on J.K. Rowling's part is unknown.

Nashville, TN (SportsNetwork.com) - Shea Weber shook off a back injury to
score a pair of goals, including the game-winner 1:29 into overtime, as the
Nashville Predators rallied for an improbable 3-2 victory over the New Jersey
Devils at Bridgestone Arena.
After David Legwand forced extra time by tallying with just 10.8 seconds left
in regulation, Weber -- a game-time decision coming into the contest --
converted on a 2-on-2 rush with Colin Wilson to give the Predators the two
Carter Hutton did his part as well by coming up with 24 saves, including a
game-saving stop on a breakaway from Michael Ryder mere moments before Weber
ended it.
"This was a real good win for the team," said Weber. "We found a way and
battle hard. Tied it up and then we took our chance in overtime."
Patrik Elias and Jaromir Jagr each had a goal and an assist for New Jersey,
which ended a 1-1-1 road trip on a down note. Cory Schneider finished with 30
saves in the loss.
"It's tough, two nights in a row, giving up a lead in the last minute," said
Schneider in referencing Thursday's 3-2 overtime win at Dallas, during which
the Stars tied the game with 51.5 seconds in regulation. "We should've had an
extra point tonight again."
With Schneider leading the way with a near-flawless performance between the
pipes, the Devils were on the verge of victory until a frantic attack with
Hutton pulled resulted in Legwand's equalizer with little time to spare.
The Nashville forward was perfectly placed to the right side of the New Jersey
net, and a long shot from teammate Roman Josi that was blocked in front came
straight to Legwand, who promptly fired the puck into an open side to knot the
score at 2-2.
Hutton kept it deadlocked by sticking out his right pad to stone Ryder in all
alone with 1:20 elapsed in OT. Shortly after the subsequent faceoff, Wilson
skated hard into the Devils' zone before dropping a pass to a trailing Weber,
who ripped a wrister into the top right corner for the clincher.
Nashville owned a 1-0 lead at the end of a first period it mostly dominated,
with Weber showing no ill effects from his recent injury by opening the
scoring 6:45 in.
Schneider failed to clear a puck out of his own zone and it was stolen away by
the Predators' Patric Hornqvist, who sent back a pass that Weber wound up and
rocketed past the New Jersey netminder for his first goal of the night.
The Devils surged ahead in the second period behind two of their established
veterans, with Elias and Jagr scoring nearly six minutes apart.
Elias' attempt while skating down the left wing bounced off Hutton's glove and
over the line with seven minutes remaining in the session. He later got the
puck to Jagr behind the Predators' net, and the 41-year-old sniper worked his
way into the slot before spinning around and firing a shot between Hutton's
pads 1:01 prior to the second intermission.
Game Notes
The Predators improved to 11-1-2 this season when Weber, who had never scored
in eight previous meetings with New Jersey, records a goal ... The Devils lost
for only the third time (7-1-2) in 10 lifetime visits to the Music City ...
Elias now has four goals in his last four games ... Jagr's marker was the
698th of his career ... The Devils assigned rookie defenseman Eric Gelinas to
Albany of the American Hockey League prior to the game.

Call Crime Check anytime to do a report over the phone. When the runaway returns call back to cancel the report.
The Police Department and the Sheriff's Office contract with Crime Check to write some types of police reports.
911/ Crime Check call receivers are not authorized to give out warrant information over the phone. Call receivers can take the information on who you believe has the warrant, where the suspect currently is, and pass it on to police and sheriff's dispatchers for whatever action is appropriate.
When you make a police report, you indicate to law enforcement that you want to press charges for the crime. Charges are "pressed" when sufficient evidence exists for the prosecutor to file the charge. Not all reports will conclude with charges being pressed.
When you call to make a police report, the call receiver you speak to will try to get as much information as possible to give investigators a greater chance for follow-up.
You may contact Crime Check anytime at 509.456.2233, however call volume is usually highest between 3:00 PM and 9:00 PM Monday through Friday. Calls are answered in the order received.
Whether you e-filed or phoned in your report information, once a report number has been assigned it is:
No, call receivers are civilian employees of Spokane County.
No, call receivers are not allowed to give legal advice. In some situations you might be told that your situation seems civil (vs. criminal) and it will be suggested that you seek legal advice.
Call your cell service provider and ask them to shut off the service to your lost or stolen phone. Provide the cell company with the date and time you knew you last had the phone and ask them to check for any outgoing calls made from your cell phone after it was lost or stolen. Ask them to send you the list of any such calls. Once you have the list, either mail or fax the list to the records department to be attached to your report as evidence.
Fax to: 509.477.4059
Mail to: Records Department
PSB-1, 1116 W Broadway Ave.
Spokane, WA. 99260-0001
Make sure to write your full name, address, phone and report numbers on each page of the list you send in.
Requests may be faxed, mailed or emailed to the SPD Records office.
Mail to: Records Department
PSB-1, 1116 W Broadway Ave.
Spokane, WA. 99260-0001
Fax Number: 509.625.4059
Reports cannot be faxed to you. You must include your address and a phone number to reach you when it's ready to be picked up.
Please allow a minimum of two-t business days for the report processing to be completed.
Have your report number available. If you've lost your report number, you can call records at 509.625.4030 to get it.
The 911/Crime Check call receivers do not have information about the status of your report. Do not call 911 or Crime Check to ask these questions. If you do, you will be given a recording about the proper use of 911. Please call the appropriate case-screening number above.
911 call receivers do not dispatch the calls for service and cannot guarantee a response. They relay your information to dispatchers. It is very important that you call 911 back if your situation changes so they can update the information to the dispatchers. Dispatchers need current information to determine appropriate response. Do not call only to ask when officers will arrive. If you do, you will be put on a recording about the proper use of 911.
Call Administration 509.532.8911 to request information on access to 9-1-1/Crime Check recordings or follow the directions on the Spokane 911 website.
Call the Records Dept. at 509.625.4030.
There are several locations, including, the Washington State Patrol office and website, the lobby of the Public Safety building, a staffed COPS/SCOPE station, or a staffed fire station as well as some public libraries.
If the injury/illness isn't due to circumstances like those listed above, please contact a vet or rescue shelter. After hours, or a day your vet isn't open - you will need to contact a Pet Emergency clinic to get help for your animal/pet.
Spokane County has adopted an ordinance regulating noise disturbances in the unincorporated areas of Spokane County. The Spokane County Noise Disturbance Ordinance can be found in Chapter 6.12 of the Spokane County Code. Read more about Noise Disturbances in Spokane County

Police say some of the 14 workers held hostage overnight during a robbery at a Los Angeles clothing store were assaulted, and one was stabbed.
Police Lt. Andy Neiman says the stabbed worker was treated for a non-life threatening wound.
He says another worker was sexually assaulted and others were manhandled during the four-hour standoff at a Nordstrom Rack store near Los Angeles International Airport.
At least two robbers are being sought.
The ordeal began around 11 p.m. Thursday and ended around 3 a.m. Friday when a SWAT team entered the store but found no robbers.
Police are also trying to determine whether a car found in neighboring Culver City was the getaway vehicle.

Scripps Ranch High suspensions, charges criticized by parents Scripps Ranch High suspensions, charges criticized by parents of 'twerking' teens
Parents, residents and lawyers urged the San Diego school board Tuesday to reconsider the suspensions and sexual harassment charges that were handed down to 31 students at Scripps Ranch High School for their role in the now-infamous "twerking" video that was posted on YouTube last month.
Speaking to trustees before they met behind closed doors to discuss the twerking discipline and other matters, the group accused the high school of overreacting. Some suggested that the San Diego Unified School District was more interested in backing up administrators than giving students their due process.
After the closed session, board President John Lee Evans said the trustees do not have the authority to overturn suspensions, only expulsions. "What's more important is students learn from this as they mature," Evans said.
Trustee Scott Barnett said both students and administrators showed poor judgment. He suggested a compromise that the punishment could be altered by the school principal in return for an apology from the students.
Local attorney Ruth Hargrove, who represents one of the girls suspended, wants the sexual harassment violation expunged from her client's record and an apology from the district.
"Sexual harassment is an incredibly serious charge to have on one's record to follow to college," she said. "It is conduct that is so pervasive and it is generally repeated and is so hostile that it generally interferes with the education of a student."
Speakers expressed a range of emotions as they approached the school board. Some were in tears describing how their daughters have been humiliated, others expressed anger and outrage at what was described as a series of flawed decisions.
"This has been a nightmare for my daughter and my entire family," said a parent, who spoke publicly but did not identify herself. "The video doesn't represent what the girls thought they were getting into by a stretch of the imagination."
Twenty-eight girls participated in the video that was shot on campus with district equipment. Many of the girls were featured from behind, popping their hips while crouching or doing handstands. The video was organized, executed and edited by three boys who set it to rap music with R-rated lyrics.
"When the boys returned to campus after their suspensions, they got a standing ovation," said the mother of one of the suspended girls. "The girls have been treated very differently." Some of the girls reportedly thought the video was a class project and were unaware it would be posted on YouTube. Their parents said they had participated in previous video projects that were featured on the campus TV station.
Furthermore, many of the girls had no idea that twerking was not allowed on campus because the dance is common. One parent submitted a DVD to the school board that included footage of several events held at Scripps Ranch High that features students twerking — including a pep rally and a powder puff football game.
Superintendent Bill Kowba told school board members in a confidential memo earlier this month that he personally considers the video "a deeply offensive production with implications for lewd conduct, sexual harassment and gender victimization."
A subsequent letter made public Tuesday from the Scripps Ranch High "counselors and counseling support staff" criticizes Trustee Kevin Beiser for giving them a "lack of support" that has hurt the school's image.
"If you and the board do not support the school's decision to suspend, then we believe you are sending the students a message that they do not have to follow rules and that whatever they put online is OK," the staff said in the memo sent to Beiser.
The memo goes on to state that the video has created a "major disruption on our campus and community. We now have an administrative team and staff whose reputations have been compromised and damaged. ... We hope very much you see our concerns and are planning to work with the school by supporting the appropriate actions taken by the administration and staff based on school and district policies."
Six of the students involved in the video are 12th-graders, and some were told they could lose some "senior privileges," such as participation in prom and the commencement ceremony. Board President Evans said Tuesday the students will be allowed to take part in those events.

More Music Festivals in Mallorca
We continue to talk about places in Majorca where festivals are held year in, year out.
Since 1998, Pla de Mallorca -a comarca comprising 15 farming districts- has been hosting the Mancomunitat Pla de Mallorca International Festival, going from July to September, which promotes free music concerts at churches, temples and parishes. The small fishing seaport town of Cala Rajada hosts a festival in July called Serenates d'Estiu de Cala Rajada-Capdepera, organised by Youth Music Groups. It takes place in the gardens of the Sa Torre Cega estate, which is owned by the March Foundation.
In the north-west, the Pollença Festival is now a regular feature. It is held in the 17th century convent of Santo Domingo, which has excellent acoustics.
There is room for more than just classical events in the Majorcan summer. Hosted in Sa Pobla since 1995, the International Jazz Festival was created by a group of young people seeking to introduce an element of innovation to the long "pobler" summer. Musicians such as Pedro Iturralde, Max Sunyer or Dave Holland have since raised its profile.
Sóller and Palma gather the best names in folk music. The Sa Mostra Folk Festival, founded by Aires Sollerichs, gathers bands from around the globe in over 8 days in July. Performances are free of charge and take place in all of Majorca's municipal districts, with Sóller hosting the main event. The Cançons de la Mediterrània festival, hosted by Palma Local Council, has, since 1984, featured sounds and rhythms based on shared cultural heritage. It takes place in Parc de la Mar, with the spectacular Cathedral towering above the stage.

Species range limits
Snow-gums, Eucalyptus pauciflora, approaching climate limits on the Bogong High Plains, Victoria, Australia.
Species range limits (SRLs) are defined as the spatial boundaries beyond which no living individuals of a given species occur. Populations occurring near or at SRLs are often referred to as "marginal," "peripheral," "edge," or "border" populations. SRLs may represent areas beyond which individuals cannot physiologically tolerate ecological conditions or areas where they have not yet dispersed. SRLs may be stable (i.e., at equilibrium) or may represent areas where range expansion through migration or population growth is in the process of occurring. SRLs are significant to ecology, evolution, and conservation for several reasons. They provide opportunities to understand the conditions under which populations expand or contract, and the conditions under which populations may evolve new forms. Additionally, SRLs can provide clues about how species may respond in the face of rapid environmental change.
Characteristics of Species Range Limits
Biologists have long been interested in whether populations near SRLs possess predictable properties, such as differences in abundance or genetic variation when compared to more central populations. Two general patterns have emerged by reviewing patterns of DNA variation across a broad set of species, mostly from the Northern Hemisphere. Genetic differentiation levels (defined as the degree to which populations differ in their genes to one another) among nearby populations are higher approaching SRLs than genetic differentiation levels among populations more centrally located within species ranges. Also, genetic diversity levels (defined as the diversity or variety of genes within a population) are generally lower near SRLs. These patterns are not especially strong, and their general causes are still not understood, but the following factors may contribute: stronger natural selection near SRLs, increased isolation or genetic drift near SRLs, or greater fluctuations in environmental suitability near SRLs that translate into unstable population dynamics. Importantly, despite the general genetic signature of decreased diversity in the majority of species examined, exceptions to this pattern are common. Additionally, populations near SRLs, even those having lower genetic diversity than interior populations, can host unique genes and adaptations that can have high conservation value.
Causes of species range limits
SRLs can be maintained by a variety of interacting factors. Barriers may cause range limits, such as a rapid transition in ecological suitability (e.g., a land to sea transition) that prevents individuals from establishing elsewhere. Non-biological environmental factors, termed abiotic factors (e.g., climate, soil type, etc.), explain large biogeographic divisions such as biomes (deserts, tropical forests, etc.) and often determine the occurrence of SRLs. Species interactions, often termed biotic factors, include predation, parasitism, mutualisms, competition, and hybridization and can also cause SRLs. Abiotic and biotic factors can interact, and any one range-limiting factor, or set of interacting factors, may change gradually or abruptly across space to determine SRLs. Evolutionary constraints, or the failure of a given species to adapt to all conditions on Earth, are the ultimate cause of SRLs.
Adaptation at species range limits
Why do species fail to adapt to conditions at SRLs? The main reason for evolutionary constraints at SRLs, or anywhere, is a lack of genetic variation to respond to natural selection. This lack of genetic variation to adapt to novel conditions may be a characteristic of populations approaching SRLs or a characteristic of the species as a whole. In this vein, species with very limited levels of genetic variation (contained within their populations) may have smaller range sizes.
Rainforest specialist flies such as these (Drosophila birchii) have been shown to have low levels of genetic variation related to cold-climate tolerance, which likely explains their narrow species ranges in the tropics. Source: Science.au.dk Adaptation to conditions at SRLs can result in a species range expansion as newly adapted populations spread into new areas. This process of species range expansion through adaptation at SRLs is essentially niche evolution, or the evolutionary broadening of niche breadth (e.g., an increase in the range of growing degree days in which a plant can grow and produce viable seeds). As genetic mutations arise within a species' range, and as populations trade these new genes through gene flow, genetic variation may accumulate and increase over time, allowing a gradual increase in range size known as secular migration. When genetic variation is not limited at range limits, beneficial traits can evolve quickly. This phenomenon has been observed at the spatial margins of recent biological invasions. For example, dispersal speed (through increased leg length) has rapidly evolved in edge populations of the cane toad invasion in Australia.
Cane toad, Bufo marinus, Queesland National Park, Australia. Source: CC-sa-3.0 Gene flow between populations can have negative and positive consequences on adaptation to novel conditions, and these consequences can depend on the environmental source of gene flow. Gene flow between very different environments may increase genetic variation within populations, but this gene flow may also disrupt the process of adaptation by natural selection by mixing adapted genes with maladapted genes. In this vein, gene flow could stall adaptations occurring near SRLs, thereby contributing to the maintenance of SRLs. Alternatively, gene flow may introduce beneficial genes to stressful environments near SRLs, especially if originating from similar environments where beneficial adaptations already exist. Gene flow between similar environments of ecological gradients may be an important force in adaptation at species range limits. In this vein, populations occupying similar environments should be considered collectively for their potential to share genes with adaptive results, and not just as a set of populations that are individually high or low in adaptive and conservation value.
Shifting limits under climate change?
The extent to which SRLs are at equilibrium is unknown for most species. If SRLs are in tight equilibrium with current climates, we may expect a rapid shift in range limits with rapid climate change. This would result in leading-edge and rear-edge portions of species ranges where adjustments to climate change are occurring. Leading-edge areas are those that become more favorable during climate shifts and where populations will migrate towards through a process of niche tracking. Rear-edge areas are expected to become unsuitable during climate shifts as the species niche moves away from populations inhabiting environmental extremes that are becoming even more extreme (e.g., warming of the current hottest areas inhabited by a species). Indeed, The low-elevation species range limit of the alpine chipmunk, Tamias alpinus, from the high Sierra Nevada of California, has retracted upwards over the last century, resulting in reduced genetic diversity. Photo courtesy of Risa Sargent. many species have already responded to recent human-linked climate warming during the past few decades by expanding their geographic ranges towards the poles. An important question is, which species will be most vulnerable to range shifts under modern climate change? The challenge of conservation efforts during climate shifts is to assist populations in tracking their species niche as it moves away from them, or to promote rapid climate adaptation in cases where individuals are unable to migrate due to habitat requirements unrelated to climate (e.g., species restricted to certain soils or bodies of water).
