Topic: This is truly the worst film of 2007.
Posted: January 14 2008 at 9:36am
*copied and pasted from the Christmas in Wonderland thread so more people could read it*
I saw it yesterday...why? Because I was an extra in the film, so I felt obligated to see it. When they were filming, I knew right away, that the film was incredibly rushed. And, they treated the extras like crap. (during the break, we were fed microwaved cheap hotdogs. Those sucked.
I'm visible in one of the shots, (I'm DEFINITELY not telling you which one. :P), but thankfully, you can't see my face. Just the back of my head.
Anyway, this is one of the worst movies I have ever seen in my entire life, and definitely the worst Christmas movie I have ever seen. (and, there are a lot of crap-Christmas films out there)
The writing is brilliantly bad. It's amazing that there were three writers on the project. It definitely deserves worst screenplay.
The performance from Patrick Swayze...is...well, it's brilliant. He deserves worst actor for sure!
And, definitely worst director. I mean, this guy did a total rush job.
And, this is a bit of a stretch, but I think this film deserves worst special effects. Sure, there aren't as many special effects shots in this movie as there are in other films that have been released in 2007. But, the shots of Santa disappearing were...bad. Very bad. And the CG elves...they were disturbing. Brilliantly bad. And creepy too.
I'm not sure if it's still too late for voters to make last minute decisions..but, please, give this film a chance and vote for it. I know not many people saw it. But this definitely deserves at least a nomination.

Wyoming, MI – Johan Kazmirczak, a 25 year old native of Itaipulandia, Parana, Brazil is a person who has many reasons to be thankful.
He has shelter for a good night rest daily, a great job as a pharmacist in a hospital and a loving family who supports him in everything he does. For these reasons and many more, Kazmirczak has put his life on hold for an 18 month period to help others who are less fortunate.
In February 2013, the Brazilian man will travel to Africa, where he will spend six months participating in training programs to help local farmers, as well as projects to prevent the spread of AIDS.
For the past three months he has been preparing for the trip, taking classes, and learning about how his role will play into the African communities, at the Institute for International Cooperation and Development located in Dowagiac, MI, approximately 85 miles west of Wyoming.
On Friday November 30, 2012 Kazmirczak was at the entrance of Mexico Supermarket, located at 3355 Avenue S. Division seeking donations for the trip. From what we witnessed during our visit, the area's Hispanic community is a caring community filled with great heart and compassion. Customer after customer, paid for their purchase and without saying a word, deposited their donations into the box the man was holding.
"My parents were volunteers in the church; they set the example for me to help others" Said Kazmirczak. "I have the time and desire to help those in Africa, there is much need there" he added. When asked about the date of his departure, he replied "I feel happy; it is a reality of a dream. When you help somebody, you are giving back twice."
He is part of a team of likeminded people from various countries who will make the trip. This will be the first time he travels to Africa. While he has waived his salary to be a volunteer, he said he is very secure with the commitment he has made.
"I am ready," said Kazmirczak "anxious to get to Africa and help with whatever I can."
For Information on IICD Michigan and how you can help, please call 269.591.0518

text: Alright. Sometime back, I fell and my back brake lever released itself. I have Hayes HFX-9's and there is a little machanism that when you fall, it releases itself. But now if I hit a ramp or something like that, the brake lever flys out of place and I have to put it back into the little mechanism. It is like loose. Is there any way to prevent the lever from falling out. Thanks.

Give me a break! I'm a newbie in Sun City Lincoln Hills but I'm already sick and tired of all the whining about stop signs and people trying to make raceways out of our streets.
Since I've been here, the problems I've experienced are speeders, tailgaters and just plain discourteous drivers who think they're driving in New York or something.
The worst are women in fancy cars, even failing to wait their turn at four-way stops.
This is a retirement community. Slow down and enjoy it.
Observe speed limits, traffic laws and driving courtesy, and plan your daily schedules better so there's no need to hurry.
If that doesn't work, how about getting up earlier? Not only will it help to manage your day better, you'll have more time to bask in the splendor of this beautiful place.
Bill Helm, Lincoln

Army wife credits experiences, opportunities provided by military life
January 12, 2009
By Sgt. Micah E. Clare. U.S. Army Europe Public Affairs Office
HEIDELBERG, Germany -- Rosella Glenn doesn't live like most Army wives.
She wakes up in the morning and checks to see if the lights turn on. If the heat has gone out again she decides whether to drain the radiators. She tries the water to see if it's working and clean enough to take a shower. Sometimes she takes a walk and chats with farmers and villagers at the local bazaar in Tajik, Uzbek and Russian.
This is Glenn's life in the Central Asian republic of Tajikistan. Just north of Afghanistan, the country is the poorest of the former Soviet republics. Her job there is to teach people about America and conduct research about the hardships the nation's women face.
It's a far cry from her own humble roots in northern Italy to her mission today as a U.S. State Department expert in international affairs, from small-town girl with a limited grasp of English to Fulbright scholar. And Glenn gives much of the credit for her success to the opportunities and experiences provided by 16 years as an Army spouse.
"There are always challenges," she said. "But within the military community there is always help. Even moving around; it allows you to think outside the box, to adapt to different cultures and environments. You just have to learn to organize your life in a way that gives you support."
When Glenn left Borgosesia, Italy, at age 22 to live with her new husband, then an Army captain stationed at Hohenfels, Germany's Combat Maneuver Training Center as an observer/controller, she immediately faced obstacles because of her limited English.
"I spoke what broken English I learned in high school with my husband, but it was overwhelming speaking with a lot of people at once," she said.
In a new environment with many challenges ahead, Glenn said she realized her situation actually offered unique opportunities.
"The military always has something for you to do, even if it's just volunteering," she said.
So that's what she did. One day before leaving for a field exercise, her husband took her to Army Community Service to see what they could offer.
"The best way for someone to get around handicaps like a language barrier, or simply not having friends or knowing the area, is to dive right in and volunteer," said Col. Mike Glenn, now serving as deputy chief of U.S. Army Europe's global rebasing and restructuring division here.
While she may have been new to life as a U.S. Army spouse, Rosella discovered she had skills ACS could use.
"Back in Italy, I had some background in fine arts," she said. "ACS started me off designing flyers, which led to learning computer skills, which then opened up doors to marketing and advertising."
Eventually volunteering led to a paid job as a marketing specialist. At the same time she began studying German affairs and started the process of becoming a U.S. citizen.
When the Glenns were later reassigned to Garmisch, Germany, Rosella said she was compelled to return to volunteering, and a new window of opportunity opened.
"While I volunteered at the visual information branch I saw published material that dealt with former Soviet republics. I then saw and met people from those countries coming to Garmisch to attend conferences and courses," she said. "I was so curious, because I've always enjoyed reading about world affairs and watching news."
That curiosity drove her to continue her formal education in foreign affairs, even as she added raising two boys, Bryan and Martin, to her challenging regimen.
During the family's next tour in Virginia she enrolled at George Mason University, earned her bachelor's degree in global affairs with a focus on Russia and Central Asia, and began work on a master's.
Unfortunately, delays in her citizenship application process pushed back her goal of working for the U.S. government. Yet she said even that delay led to opportunity.
"I had to go back to volunteering in the Washington D.C. area," she said. "I took any opportunity that came along, and I was given an intern position at the Helsinki Commission."
She said her work with the congressional commission, which is responsible for monitoring and encouraging international human rights compliance, taught her about many issues involving the Central Asian Turkmen, Uzbek, and Kazakh peoples.
Faced with even greater challenges when her husband deployed to Afghanistan, leaving her to take charge of the household, she said she still managed to continue her studies and seek out opportunities. She said that while studying the Uzbek language she became involved with the Fulbright program, a renowned academic fellowship whose membership has included heads of state, congressmen, and Olympic athletes.
The State Department calls its Fulbright Student Award the largest international exchange program offering opportunities for students to undertake international graduate study. Rosella said the program seemed ideal for her.
"I thought it would be very exciting," she said. "It would finally be something that would match what I'd learned with a practice."
The program required her to choose a country in which to pursue that practice. She said she chose Tajikistan because she felt women there were most affected by changes after the fall of the Soviets.
While her formal education prepared her for the job, she said the Army taught her how to do something equally vital to her new mission.
"Move to a new place and adapt," she said. "My 16 years as an Army spouse prepared me so much for what I'm doing now. Because of it, as they say in Italy, I'm not lost in a glass of water."
Rosella said working, studying, and raising a family has not always been easy, but that she feels strongly about giving back to America because it has given her so much.
"I'm not sure what's ahead, but I can feel that it's going to be good," she said.
"I'm very proud of my wife," said Mike Glenn. "I'm most proud of the example she has set for our children. They see in her the ability to jump right in and do something without reservations. She has shown that life is full of experiences ready for the taking."

Thursday December 27, 2012
NEW YORK (AP) -- Free agent slugger Hideki Matsui has retired from professional baseball, saying he is no longer able to perform at the level that earned him a World Series MVP with the New York Yankees and three Central League MVPs in Japan.
Matsui announced his retirement Thursday at a news conference in New York that was conducted only in Japanese and broadcast live in his home country.
Nicknamed Godzilla, the 38-year-old Matsui batted .282 with 175 homers and 760 RBIs for the Yankees, Los Angeles Angels, Oakland Athletics and Tampa Bay Rays. Before joining the Yankees in 2003, Matsui played 10 seasons for the Yomiuri Giants in Japan.
Always cool under pressure, Matsui hit a grand slam in his first game at Yankee Stadium and had six RBIs in his finale with the Yankees -- Game 6 of the 2009 World Series.

Bamboo offers investors potentially mouth-watering returns.
As the fastest-growing land plant in the world, it can reach 41 ft within a year. Bamboo, which is a type of grass, creates up to 20 times more timber/ha than trees.
With mounting environmental concerns about the lack of sustainable forests, demand for bamboo is soaring. Producers claim they can double investors' money in as little as five years, or grow it fourfold within 15.
EcoPlanet Bamboo recently launched a "bamboo fund" for investors. David Cox, president of EcoPlanet, says: 'While you must wait at least 25 years for a tree to grow and be harvested, bamboo is ready in less than five years.' A key appeal of bamboo is that it can be used for a wide range of products - from building materials to bio-fuels, and even clothes.
In Nicaragua, and the minimum investment is US$15 000 for 0.25 ha plot on which about 100 plants are grown. Investors are offered a guaranteed return of 7 percent of the amount invested in year one. They receive 8 percent on their initial investment in year two, followed by nine percent in year three. It is not until year four that the bamboo is ready for full harvest. EcoPlanet Bamboo is not the only outfit in this specialist sector. Touchwood, which farms bamboo in Thailand, sells it in grass "clumps". For full story, please see: www.dailymail.co.uk/money/article-2005304/Bamboo-offers-green-shoots-opportunity.html
Facts and figures
There are enough commercial and environmental reasons why you should plant bamboo. Statistics show that after planting, one can start harvesting after four years. The solid bamboo can grow up to 24-30 m tall, 20-30 cm diameter, usually 2-2.5 cm thick-walled. Each crump is harvested once or twice a year. The minimum number of nine meters tall poles per harvest is approx. 20 to 35. A three meters pole can sell up to Ksh 2,500.
The solid bamboo can grow up to 6-10 m tall; 6-10 cm in diameter. It is a drought-resistant species of bamboo that can also grow even in savanna woodland, semi-arid wooded grassland and thicket.
Solid bamboo
Strategic planning for the next four years. Remember! Bamboos are some of the fastest growing plants in the world. They can grow up to four inches a day and you can harvest your bamboo forest for over 40 years. To the tea factories! this is your opportunity to develop your own forests and become self sufficient in bio fuel. Bamboo has been used as feed for cattle and other livestock for hundreds of years.
Is this real wealth? Indeed, it is! Apart from enjoying an improved ecosystem, a bamboo floor is now one of the most luxurious of all floors. While it may take over 100 years to replace a hardwood tree such as a Brazilian teak, bamboo reaches full maturity suitable for hardwood applications in about 4 years, and can actually regenerate without replacing or replanting.
In addition, bamboo plays a very valuable environmental role. Its complex root system, can act as a fantastic water filter, removing nutrients and dangerous poisons such as heavy metals and not get it into the food chain. As such, bamboo could have a lot to offer in the slum areas, where it can be used to clean up waste water, including the Nairobi river.

Based on a swap-spread-based model, EURUSD should trade around 1.30, but based on GDP-weighted sovereign credit risk EURUSD should trade around 1.00; so who is right and what are the factors that supporting the Euro at higher levels than many would assume (given the rising probability of a Euro-zone #fail and the 0.82 lows from 2000). UBS addresses four key reasons for the apparent paradox based on the difference between ECB and Fed 'monetization', the EZ's balanced current account (independent of foreign capital flows), and the high-oil-price induced petro-dollar circulation diversifying into Euros (or out of USD). The final and most telling of factors though is bank deleveraging as European financial entities, who remain under pressure to shrink their balance sheets and re-build capital, have been selling foreign assets. They remain EUR dismalists with a year-end target of 1.15 but expect the slide to these levels to be cushioned (absent an imminent break-up) by banks' 'shrinkage'.
Based on a pure swap-spread model, it appears EURUSD is starting to price in liquiidty risk once again (as it did last year - green ovals)...
But the pressure remains on EURUSD via the massive rise in credit risk across the Union's members (with parity seemingly attractive)...
and so from UBS - EURO - Who's Buying?
Financial markets are starting to price in the risks that the Eurozone may split apart following this month's inconclusive elections in Greece. But the euro, while trading back to this year's lows against the dollar at 1.27-1.28, remains far above its lifetime lows of 0.82 recorded in 2000.
What explains this paradox?
First, the European Central Bank so far has not engaged in outright quantitative easing during the financial crisis. Moreover, while the Federal Reserve, the Bank of Japan and the Bank of England all have cut interest rates to between zero and 0.5%, the ECB's benchmark interest rate remains at 1.0%. In contrast, investors are concerned the Federal Reserve will engage in a third round of quantitative easing. Similarly, the Bank of Japan and the Bank of England have also been printing money and buying government bonds.
Second, the Eurozone as a whole runs a balanced current account. Thus it is not dependent on foreign capital inflows to support the value of the euro.
Third, high oil prices have increased the petro-dollars accumulated by central banks and sovereign wealth funds in the Middle East, North Africa, Commonwealth of Independent States and Norway. These official investors diversify a portion of their new foreign reserves into Eurozone markets.
And, last, Eurozone banks under pressure to shrink their balance sheets and rebuild capital have been selling foreign assets.
As Chart 1 shows the ratio of loans-to-deposits peaked in the Eurozone close to 125% in 2007 when the credit crunch began. Since then the ratio has declined to 115% but largely because of an increase in deposits. As Eurozone banks further reduce the size of their balance sheets, they are likely to cut loans now including those from abroad. That leads to repatriation flows supporting the euro.
How long can such deleveraging go on?
Chart 2 shows how the ratio of loans-to-deposit has fallen from its peak in Japan in 1992, the US in 2008 and the UK in 2007. For the last two decades Japanese banks have steadily reduced their loans-to-deposits ratio from 130% in the early 1990s to below 80% now.
American and British banks have also been deleveraging sharply over the last few years. But Eurozone banks have been much slower, suggesting they will spend many more years slimming down their balance sheets now. That should lead to more repatriation flows to the benefit of the euro.
Thus while the euro is set to keep sliding owing to the debt crisis in the Eurozone - our end year target is 1.15 against the dollar - in the absence of a break up of the single currency area, the euro's decline should be cushioned by the Eurozone's banks.

A little pressure for the squeeze. Also, they're probably dumping both foreign and domestic assets at this point. Particularly in Greece. They got to pay for those bank runs somehow.
The euro isn't crashing because it is worthless paper, it has no value, so how can it possibly crash.
How can something have any translatable value to something else if it is worthless. Its fx rate is a perception, and it can be set at whatever the politicians can agree, and it can stay there forever even as all currency becomes worthless and prices of real goods rise. Other than scalping to make a leveraged profit (or loss) I can't see why people bother trading it, it's not like trading patterns have any real link or the subject being traded has any realistic basis to gauge, and therefore any real meaning. It's just a gamble, pure and simple on a figure set by others at their whim which has no link whatsoever to any 'real' market. Fx traders exist to be parted from their money.
Buy gold, at least you know what you're getting.
Oddly enough, as the bank runs speed up across Europe and into France, I see the Euro getting stronger just like the dollar did in the 30s. Everyone is delevering, margining out, going to cash. Cash is hard to come by if everyone is dumping positions in even more worthless assets like derivatives and eurostocks.
The euro, unless the ECB can create a tsunami of liquidity- hard to do with no real central bank, should inflate in value as it deflates in liquidity. In a huge run to cash. Then, with government disorientation and excessive printing( new unified bonds coming soon) hyperinflation will set in with all the fighting and political trail wrecks. This ain't Japan. They are not gonna sit down and take this from the governments
yes, we've seen this before haven't we?
but not in so many places concurrently...
Are concerns over a Greek Euro exit overdone ?
Is the Euro area Credibly on Target?
Not to mention the huge short position in the euro now. A small move up could cause a ridiculous short squeeze. That would be a great time to short after that move up.
"Eurozone as a whole runs a balanced current account. Thus it is not dependent on foreign capital inflows to support the value of the euro"
Hey, you lazy Yank bitches...TRY TO DO EVEN THAT! When it was the last time there was no current account deficit in the US...it must have been back when Ray-Gun met Gorba.
The US has 50 billion in forex reserves. That is just enough to cover ONE MONTHS trade deficit.
The US has $100 per person in forex reserves. Switzerland has $40,000 per person in forex reserves.
Dollar is the best fiat ? Yeeeeah right
And Italy?, and Spain?, and France? LMFAO!!!
Nothing like having the best house in the fucking projects. "Winning"
Right on Nussi, one thing left out of the equation is sovereignty. The countries in the EURO ZONE owe no allegiance to the 12 yellow stars on that flag and we already know Germany is not in compliance with paying everyone else debt. That would be like asking Texas to bail out the dumb asses in California then States rights come into play kinda like in 1861
I'm in a boat made out of Jodi Foster.
LOL, I will be impressed when the swap windows close. Until then, not so much.
Here are some excerpts:
Herman Van Rompuy: "I saw a case of banknotes turned into golden leaves. I saw a handful of coins turned into iridescent pebbles that made a sound like music as they fell to the floor. Could it be that the single currency we believed in for so long was just a dream? Just a wonderful, wonderful dream?"
German financier Hans Gruber: "I stared at my 20-Euro note as the colours and lines on it writhed around like a thing alive, never the same twice, until it turned into an old Reichsmark note bearing the face of Hitler. And – God help me – I was glad to see him."
Told you fuckers (dollar bulls)
The Euro is KING
"Eurozone as a whole runs a balanced current account.
and the high-oil-price induced petro-dollar circulation diversifying into Euros ( out of USD)
More gold then the US
Its about time a main stream institution realized some of this
europe is not the problem that the world faces. the problem is the "full faith" in the worlds reserve currency...... once the piigs fall back to their own currency that is pegged to the euro (a trick that worked with the dollar many times in latin america), the world will find a euro that is not saddled with debt overhang like the almighty u.s. dollar is.......the euro will live on, having grown stronger by that which did not kill it. wish we could say the same for the u.s. dollar.........
That new reserve will be called the Renminbi
Yes, the reason underlying all the listed reasons:
Gold, bitchez!
We might have the most gold but it's NOT like its IN EUROPE!
Buck fifteen seems like a good guess. Now....what does that number do to buy/hold gold bugs....??
it's ben it's ben with qe & interset rates (and some illegal stuff with foreign banks) he keeps the dollar devalued but he will fail in the end & then zhers see where gold goes and by the way ben is a felon
The path to a ONE WORLD CURRENCY (wet dream of NWO), leads directly through 'test tube babies' (like the Euro, the 'soon to be' AMERO, & Asian consolidation)...
The NWO-ists will not let this dream go no matter what (or what sort of dismal failure it appears to be on the surface)...
Correct. If the EU survives the Central Bankers will try to expand on it.
If the EU crashes and burns, they will blame it on nationalism (rather than their demented-Keynesian-financial ponzi scheme that is the real culprit).
The only real 'hitch' to the plan are places like Russia & Iran who simply want to say 'FUCK YOU' to that kind of system (& have the resources to do so)...
Got popcorn?
Reason #5: Central Bank support in the 1.30 EURUSD area. If true market dynamics were involved the Euro would have been in the 1.teens last year.
What about a story on how nothing is really crashing. Oil is trading up 1.25% because of future hope of increased demand. Not reality but HOPE OF FUTURE DEMAND!!!!
Natural Gas is trading based on the weather. If next week is going to be hotter, nat gas goes up, colder it goes down. A whole bunch of speculative traders went in long after nattie went below $2. THEY CAN'T LOSE MONEY, WON'T BE ALLOWED. They want natural gas to head beyond $5 again before cashing out. It will get there regardless of record surplus inventory and producers burning it off.
Supply and Demand has been replaced by the speculation of future supply and demand. The speculation is always that prices will always be higher, thus you buy now and pump the price up. That way when the price does go higher in the future, based on your speculation, you can cash out even more profit.
Remind me of the definition of insanity again.
some "apparent paradox"s are easier than others
the last few words were: "...the euro's decline should be cushioned by the Eurozone's banks."
whoever wrote that needs to self-medicate a bit defferently imo, unless this was meant to be comic material, in which case it is great and why didn't you say so, tyler? xlnt stuff!
First time I#m reading a realistic article regarding the Euro in Zerohedge.
The Euro is a stable currency no doubt as long as the people trust in it. And I do not see a reason why one should not have trust in the Euro.
The Greek tragedy is showing us, that things are handled different in the Eurozone compared to the "Printerzone" (US,UK, Japan).
In the "Printerzone" the Greek problem would be no problem at all. Ben would just make a key stroke on his computer and whoops, the money to save Greece would be already on the bank accounts where it is needed. Which means on the TBTF accounts at the end, because all the money sent to Greece is not meant for Greece , its just reducing the losses of the TBTF banks
Anybody with a half sane mind can therefore recognize that there is a huge quality difference between "Printerzone" currency the Dollar money and the Euro (former DM).
the SNB (swissNat'lBanksterity) has been supporting the EUR since they (SNB) devalued last year to do so and they have printed just about enough swissFrancs to do the job, now, for something like the eighth fuking month
all these fiat bullshit schemes are not the same; we know that; but they are fungible
the level of ignorance in the EU about what tf is ACTUALLY happening there vs. what people "believe" is still second to america, japan, china, canada, india, and saudi arabia in many respects, while surpassing that of gBritain, israel, and iceland, and possibly ireland, but probably not...
so Swiss pegging is equal to unsterilized QE 1 and 2 ? The ECB doesnt even have bonds and yet the Fed is the biggest owner of treasury bonds.
Beyond reasons given above - I think biggest culprit of elevated Euro is the open FED window borrowing.Buying euros continually to keep euro banks solvent and/or credit flowing,with dollars is the ongoing reason for high euro.
It is puzzling that Obama is asking the one powerhouse with positive account balances (germany) to start acting recklessly.
no, it isn't
they are fresh meat, not zombified with the decay functions of hypothecality over inflationary/deflationary CTRL+P ponzi-time
in short: they have assets
soon, like us, they will not have as many assets b.c of the "commonGood" or the greatestGood4daBoyz
so, they better watch out, b/c they are totally fuked, no matter what, and as was written long ago, germany shoulda been free of this nonsense by now if they wanted to cut their losses
now, they are squidFood, collectively, and undividually, if they are zeroHeads, they may be starting to understand why...
why, slewie?
to protect themselves and their families, as individuals, against theCollective, comrade BiCheZ!
Why the Euro is not crashing : Pax Americana wants to protect the banking ponzi; aka USD weak and WS strong. So Euro gets pumped up to sustain the world wide ponzi. Its a long slide down with all revolving doors working overtime.
The whole show is organised from DC with FED/City pump and Oligarchy primary distributor collusion; those very banksta shills who would burn if the pump went dry.
Only problem : Frau merkel is not on board...
The trade is too trendy right now. Euro shorts just reached a historic high. Wait for a near-term short squeeze then hop back in.
Like bernanke would allow that to happen to the dollar. They'll just print to even it out

Wood-Ridge school officials have noted that student activity fees – those added charges students pay to participate in extra-curricular activities – will not be charged this year.
The option of charging the fee to students in the district was discussed in May at a Board of Education meeting where several parents said the added charge would present a financial hardship.
The issue was then tabled.
At the time, the plan was considered because a recent survey showed that most school districts charge activity fees, school officials said. They also said keeping spending within the guidlines of the state's mandated 2% cap made it harder to operate its day-to-day budget without increasing fees.
Earlier this month, Superintendent Beth Ebler said no action was ever taken so no fee will be charged.

John Carpenter's "They Live" has an awesome plot. However, casting wrestler Roddy Piper as the lead role was a slight mistake. The movie's ideas and story are awesome, but Roddy Piper is pretty corny with his punch lines. However he doesn't totally ruin the film, and well into the film you get used to his over the top acting and the movie is really great.
Nada (played by Roddy Piper) is a homeless man looking for work. He gets a job as a construction worker and becomes friends with Frank (Keith David). Frank takes Nada to the shelter he lives at for a place to stay and a good meal. Nada begins to stumble upon something strange, as he spies on a few of the people in the shelter who seem to have a cult. He finds a box full of weird sunglasses, but thinks nothing of it the shelter is raided and everything is destroyed by the police.
Nada later tries on a pair of the sunglasses and something extremely frightening happens to him. When he puts on the glasses he see's a whole nother world. The real world. Where people appear as they're true selves, hideous monsters, and the media brain washes us.
The movie has some very cool ideas and is carried out very well. The long fight scene between Frank and Nada is so classic, and the ending is fucking great. This movie is highly recommended to John Carpenter fans, Roddy Piper fans, and fans of good sci-fi, disturbing stories. Very good movie!

For me the highlight was the sodomization of a queer-basher. The cast is terribly shocked that one of the gay men is so enraged that he rapes a man who tries to hurt him but I could only say "Right on!" (Not really, but I did approve.)

For more than 60 years, Samsung has raised the quality of life for people everywhere. As the world's largest electronics company, we apply the same innovation, technology and resources that have driven our commercial success to advancing the education and health of children around the world through our global citizenship program, Samsung Hope for Youth. It's one of the ways that Samsung uses INNOVATION TO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF PEOPLE.
Through Samsung Hope for Youth, our more than 50 subsidiaries and 180,000 employees worldwide partner with leading nonprofit organisations to effect positive change.
By supplying Samsung products, lending our expertise and providing financial support, we're able to give thousands of children in communities around the world access to education, mentorship, leadership skills and life-saving medical treatment.
In 2011, we extended the mission of Samsung Hope for Youth to address needs stemming from the global recession, especially workforce readiness and job skill training.
Our U.S. and South African subsidiaries have developed two Samsung Hope for Youth programs that exemplify our global mission to improve quality of life and education for children: the Engineering Academy and Solve for Tomorrow.
Samsung Hope for Youth
Engineers Academay - South Africa
Not only is Africa facing a critical shortage of technical and engineering skills, its young people also are falling behind in their educational achievement in physical science and engineering. To help boost both the skills and education crucial to Africa's economic growth, Samsung opened the Samsung Hope for Youth Engineering Academy in South Africa. With the help of Samsung service engineers, this state-of-the-art training centre prepares students in Grades 10 through 12 for careers in the field. Students recruited from local technical high schools receive hands-on education that provide the skills and practical experience they
will need to be effective and competitive in the local job market. Some students will even earn the chance to be hired as Samsung service engineers when they graduate.
Through the Academy, we are building a workforce of technicians that's in line with the South African government's drive to create good jobs, especially for its younger citizens. Our goal is to expand the program to other African countries such as Nigeria, Kenya and Sudan, and to develop 10,000 engineers in Africa by 2015.

Samsung Hope for Youth
Solve for Tomorrow - United Sates
Science and math education continues to be a challenge in the United States. American students are not advancing in these subjects at the pace exhibited in other countries. In fact, only 43 percent of U.S. high school graduates in 2010 were ready for college curriculum in math and just 29 percent were ready in science.
Samsung Hope for Youth Solve for Tomorrow is a nationwide video contest that encourages students and teachers to share the wonder of Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) education. The contest is designed to raise enthusiasm in these subjects by making them fun and interesting. The goal is to boost STEM proficiency among U.S. children, ultimately strengthening the nation's future competitiveness. We are partnering in this effort with several leading education non-profits, including the National Environmental Education Foundation, as well as with leading technology companies such as Microsoft and Direct TV.
Using Samsung technology in exciting new ways, students created videos that answered the question, "How can science and math help improve the environment in your community?" The top five winning classrooms won $1 million in Samsung technologies, and educators began to recognise our deep commitment to improving STEM education in the United States. In its first year, the contest received over 1,100 submissions and almost 350,000 votes from the public.

Attorneys for Martin's parents said in a statement that the photos and texts were irrelevant to the trial and could pollute the jury pool.
"Is the defense trying to prove Trayvon deserved to be killed by George Zimmerman because (of) the way he looked?" they said. "If so, this stereotypical and closed-minded thinking is the same mindset that caused George Zimmerman to get out of his car and pursue Trayvon, an unarmed kid who he didn't know."
As for the delay, O'Mara said he needed more time to review the qualifications of a prosecution witness with an expertise in speech identification. O'Mara said prosecutors only made him aware of the expert a short time ago. The expert could be used to testify whose voices were on 911 calls that captured the fatal fight between Zimmerman and Martin.
O'Mara said in an interview that he needed another month or two to prepare.
O'Mara also said in the interview that he is going to ask a judge to sequester not only the jury but the jury pool in the upcoming trial. That may involve sequestering 500 potential jurors in order to find six people who can serve on the jury, O'Mara said.

Here in Colorado: Colorado ammo magazine maker Magpul threatens to leave state over gun bill
Colorado's largest and most profitable manufacturer of high-capacity ammunition magazines has vowed to leave the state if lawmakers pass a measure banning the devices — a move officials with the company say could cost hundreds of jobs and upward of $85 million in potential spending this year.
Magpul's threat has Democratic lawmakers scrambling to strike a balance that remains true to their goal of limiting the number of rounds a magazine can hold without frightening off businesses.
Of course, then we have the 3-D printer issue: 3D printing could muzzle new gun laws

If the leaders of the State of New York are willing to limit the right of the free and law abiding citizens of New York to arm themselves as they see fit under the Rights enumerated to all citizens of the United State through the Second Amendment, we feel as though the legislators and government entities within the State of New York should have to abide by the same restrictions.
This action has caused a division of the people into classes: Those the government deems valuable enough to protect with modern firearms, and those whose lives have been deemed as having less value, and whom the government has decided do not deserve the right to protect themselves with the same firearms. Olympic Arms will not support such behavior or policy against any citizen of this great nation.
As Glenn Reynolds likes to say: PUNCHING BACK TWICE AS HARD
I'm sure the 3-D printer legislation will start later this year.

Do we need more pupillages?

Miss.shah 25 October 2011 at 04:55
We most Definately 'need' a greater number of pupillages. Being a recent BPTC graduate, the chances of pupillage seem very slim. If you are to compare the amount of money spent on the course, not to mention the time and dedication, it seems unjust that the chances of successfully attaining pupillage stand as they are. As the course has also changed not just by name, however through the syllabus and marking criteria, it is much more difficult to successfully complete the course. However it seems this change has not made it easier to attain pupillage.
There is no doubt that more pupillages are necessary, however the chances of more pupillages being available are are slim. If this is not a possible avenue, should there not be a restriction of the number of pupils who can undertake the BPTC, in order to reflect the number of pupillages available. It seems very unfair, to have to compete against so many applicants for a limited number of pupillages. Baring in mind that applicants would not only be those who recently completed the Bar, yet pupils who completed it maybe 3-4 years ago. There is simply too much competition. Furthermore for those students from poorer backgrounds, would suffer the affects of a lack of pupillages much more. After all they have invested so much money into it, and thus should have a high chance of gaining pupillage rather than a very minute chance.
There is no denying that something needs to be done.
Sensible Lawyer 25 October 2011 at 18:04
Miss.shah – We "need" a greater number of pupillages? Is there vast quantities of legal work going undone? Do clients weep at the difficult task of finding an advocate? Are barristers forced to turn work away – "no time, I'm afraid, try somewhere else"?
I think not.
A vital legal skill is grasping the essential issue, and here the essential issue is this: the number of pupillages is determined by the demand for the services barristers provide, not by the number of people who want a pupillage. The Bar is a professional organisation not a charity or a club. No-one owes you a living, nor a pupillage.
Furthermore, it is not "unfair" that there is so much competition or "unjust" that your chances are as they are. Presumably you knew when starting the BVC or BPTC that the competition was fierce and that the most likely result was that you would not obtain pupillage? If so one wonders why you started. If not one wonders why you would spend so much money with so little idea of what you were spending it on.
Anonymous 26 October 2011 at 16:15
The problem is huge numbers of students on the BPTC shouldn't have ever been allowed anywhere near it. Because they have absolutely no chance of getting pupillage. It's an absolute scandal that you can get a place on the course with a 2:2 from any old cruddy poly, but chambers can take their pick of the very best of the top university grads. After all, only 4% of pupils have 2:2s, almost all of whom will be mature applicants who have had a first career.
For almost everyone on the course, it's a complete waste of time, effort and – most importantly – money.
Jonny 7 January 2013 at 15:07
The problem is providers being allowed free reign on who they let onto the course. These are big businesses who are abusing their position as the keepers of the keys to the legal market; thousands of fresh-faced students are given the illusion that if they pay £15000 for a "respected" qualification (one that is virtually useless outside of the bar) they will have a fighting chance of getting a job. The very fact that the college of law has been bought out by private equity shows that this is a lucrative area.
Anonymous 11 March 2013 at 18:09
This issue can be easily resolved but before i get to that let me write a preamble:
Everyone in the law business would agree that there is a paramount need for acces to justice. Why then is there such huge disparity between the publicly funded side of the Bar and the private one. Answer: the private one is beyond the ambit of governmental powers (dispite the mamouth efforts of Lord Wolf to reform it), and the sad truth is that barristers, clerks, solicitors and partners in law firms want to keep it this way because the fees they charge are very handsom indeed.
My suggestion to solving the problem then would be as follows:
Have a level playing field in relation to funding both for barrister and solicitors alike when it comes to pupillages and training contracts and this should be the minimum requirement. this way more pupils and trainee solicitors can be taken on; as a result evryone benefits because:
a) the pupil/trainee solicitor would have completed the next stage and a such be entitled to a practicing certificate;
b) Chambers/Firms will be spoiled for choice and definitely choose from an array of quasi-qualified lawyers rather than finding half-way through the aprenticeship that the people they selected are not up to scratch;
c) the access to justice conundrum is aided by the fact that pupils without tenacy but with a practicing certificate will be doing a lot of pro-bono work to keep their certificates alive until they finally get employed or obtain tenancy.

Tomb raider coop? why u dont buy it?sagamaru | July 28, 2013 | Review of Lara Croft And The Guardian of Light - PC
I was deeply sceptical about this isometric entry in the Lara Croft games, but I was proven wrong. Everything that is good about the best entries in the regular 3D series is present and accounted for. Great underground caves and structures to explore, overgrown, exotic and sometimes rightfully extinct enemies to defeat, great navigational challenges to overcome, deviously hidden treasures to uncover and last but not least, Lara herself and her posh accent. It even has a very well implemented multiplayer mode, something that none of the Tomb Raider games ever did. Highly recommended. The game features a story on the same level as the previous First coop game from the Tomb Raider series....sold it Fans of the series should not miss it

<title>PropertySet Database Tips</title>

Most PropertySet implementations persist data in a relational database. Because
the PropertySet module stores a wide variety of data that is unknown at development
time, the resulting tables are not entirely in optimized (Boyce-Codd) normal
form. Since the schema design is not "optimized" to any sorta of specific
data structures, querying on these tables can be very slow if the database isn't
aware of any functional dependecies. We recommend that you create the following
indices on the OS_PROPERTYENTRY table, which will speed up queries by up to
a factor of 20:

CREATE UNIQUE INDEX os_PropertyEntry_keyidx ON os_PropertyEntry( entityName, entityId, keyValue )
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX os_PropertyEntry_allidx ON os_PropertyEntry( entityName, entityId )

Please note that these two SQL calls may or may not work with your database
vendor and you may be required to modify them accordingly. They may or may not
be specific to the propertyset implementation you are using. These indices provide
only a general idea of how you can speed up queries on your PropertySet tables.

Besides indices, another speed optimization to take in to account is the key
names that you choose when writing your application. If all your keys all look
like com.acme.foo, com.acme.bar, and com.acme.baz, your
database may not be able to properly partition data in the OS_PROPERTYENTRY
table accurately. It is recommended that your key values be chosen such that
they are evenly distributed, either by picking names such as foo, bar,
and baz (essentially removing the common prefix), or my using a reverse
key naming convention: oof.emca.moc, rab.emca.moc, and zab.emca.moc.
By properly distributing your keys, your database should be able to have much
faster access to ProperySets.

How can we prepare our toddler for a sibling?
I have a 20-month-old daughter and I'm pregnant with our second child. Everyone asks if we've told our daughter about the new arrival, but I just don't know how to explain it to her. We point out babies and talk to her about them, but she's just too young to understand. Any ideas on how we can prepare her for a sibling?

My older daughter turned 4 just before my now 18 month old was born. I really dont know that she understood at all until the baby actually got here. I had told her that there was a baby in my tummy, and she kept asking me why I ate the baby!!! It was actually pretty funny. I would explain to her that I didnt eat the baby, and then she would ask me how it got there. I told her that when a mommmy and daddy love eachother sometimes God will give them a baby. She kept telling me that "you're not telling me the truth, that doesnt make sense, you must have ate it." She insisted that until the baby came. She is okay with her now, tho sometimes I think she gets a bit jealous of her little sister. Just make sure not to let her feel left out. Make sure she knows that you still love her just as much, but now you have someone else to share your family's love with. Tell her she is "big helper" and let her know what a good big sister she is. Good luck!!!posted 03/09/2007 by *Lil*Nik*
I am in the same position as you are. I think that it would be a good idea if you would play a little family game with her. Get a doll and pretend that it is your new addition that has arrived. Let her hold and feed the doll just as she would the new baby. Then when you do have baby # two she would now what to do and expect.posted 03/09/2007 by mwilliams2006
I told my 18 month daughter that I'm pregnant, and her reaction was really funny! She was kicking me in the stomach, so I said, "Be gentle and no kicking. Mommy has a baby in her tummy." She pulled back my maternity pants and peered down them, then said, "No!" as if , "No, there's no baby in there." I told her again, she looked again, shook her head and said, "No!" like I was crazy to think there was a baby in there. I'll keep trying!posted 02/17/2007 by blackacre03

Hi Every1 I'm pregnant with my third child. Yes, I have two children, my son is going to be 10 yrs old this May and my daughter is going to be 8 yrs old next month. I am 28 yrs old, and going to be changing diapers again after 7 yrs of break. My kids are 22 mths apart and it was wonderful. Yes it's hard when your pregnant but in the end, it's worth every moment. Make sure that you include your child with your pregnancy. Show any u/s pics that you may have, even if you think that your child will not know exactly what he/she is looking at. Keep her involved, make her touch your tummy as much as you can so that she can build a bond with her little brother or sister. My kids are very happy to know that their will be another addition to the family. Obviously my daughter wants a sister, and my son a brother. As long as the baby is healthy, I'm glad. So far I'm 15 wks preggo and going strong. Baby had begun to move a little, it's wonderful. I feel so emotional these days, I cry for nothing and my skin is horrible. I didnt'seem to have these symptoms with my other pregnancies. As they say, every preggo is different, and it's true. For all you ladies that are worried about how your little one is going to react, regardless if she is the only child. Don't worry, just make your child feel apart of the experience and everything should go well. Best of Luck, Montreal, QCposted 01/23/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
Kids this age DEFINITELY understand more than we expect them to! All of these suggestions about talking to her, showing pictures, reading books, taking her to appointments... and especially explaining to her that she was once in your tummy too will help. I really think she'll grasp it pretty wellposted 01/17/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
I have a daughter that is almost 2 now. When we found out I was pregnant again she was 20 months. We told her mommy has a baby in her tummy and it was sleeping. Now she hugs and kisses my belly and sees it getting bigger and giggles. I think it's best to tell them other then avoiding it. Then brining home a baby. They might feel replaced.posted 01/14/2007 by a BabyCenter Member

Hi, I am pregnant with our second child due in March. My daughter will be 4 in June. My husband is active duty Marine Corps and might not be here for the delivery. How do I prepare her for daddy leaving and a new baby, so to try and alieviate as much jealousy as possible.posted 09/24/2006 by a BabyCenter Member
To Angie, Is this his first child? My husband was like this with our first. Once he saw her born, it changed him forever, I hope the same happens with yours. make him be in the delivery room with you, he'll really respect you more if he sees what you have to go through. If he doesn't respect you more, and if seeing his newborn child doesn't change him, then I'd say he probably is a real loser and should just stay out of your way. With my husband, it seems as if he had a bit of a midlife crisis when he learned he was going to be a father, and went to get everything out of his system as if he'd never be able to do anything again. But he came around in the end and i"m a stay at home mother who is provided for and supported by him. Until the birth, spend less time focusing on him and focus on yourself and your children instead, otherwise he'll consume you and knock you down. You can't rely on him right now, and you can't count on him for support and validation, so seek it elsewhere (with family, God, etc I mean). Good luck, I feel your pain!posted 08/16/2006 by gckronenberg
