Grandma's Prison Pen Pal
Prudie offers advice on what to do when an elderly relative is looking for love in all the wrong places—and other dilemmas.
Emily Yoffe, aka Dear Prudence, is on Washingtonpost.com weekly to chat with readers about their romantic, family, financial, and workplace problems. A transcript of this week's chat is below. (Read Prudie's Slate columns here.)
Emily Yoffe: Good afternoon, everyone. It's hard to get used to writing "2010" on the checks, isn't it?
Alma, Ark.: My 75-year-old grandma has been widowed for more than 10 years. Most of our family doesn't include her in any outside activities, so she lives a lonely existence. She still works part time outside her home, lives alone, and is healthy. She has been writing to a prison pen pal for almost four years now. She also regularly drives three hours each way to visit this man in prison. She recently told me she and this man, let's call him "Steve," are planning on getting married at the end of this month. Steve is 37 years old and won't get out of prison for six more years. I truly believe my grandma loves Steve and that he makes her happy, but I also know that the rest of my family will disown her if she does this. Should I be happy for her or not? What should I do? Please help. I love my Grandma and want her to be happy, but I don't want her to be hurt by the rest of the family either.
Emily Yoffe: I wonder which came first, your grandmother's estrangement from her family, or Steve? If your 75-year-old grandmother plans to marry a 37-year-old convict, I think the family would do well to try to have some kind of intervention and at least see if Grandma is suffering from a medical or mental condition. What you can do is maintain a loving relationship with your grandmother. Does she have interests besides prison reform that you two could share? Maybe she could tell you some of her memories of her childhood, and you can put them in book form for her. If she brings up Steve, feel free to tell her the truth: that you want her to be happy, but you think marriage to a convict young enough to be her son is not the path to follow.
Danbury: I'll be getting married this October. My fiancee's maid of honor is getting married two weeks before us. She is putting off searching for her own wedding dress because she is insisting that she will lose 60(!) pounds before this September. Both my fiancee and I think this is an unrealistic expectation (she's done nothing to change her lifestyle so far), and it creates a problem with the bridesmaid dresses for our wedding. My fiancee wants her friends to order their dresses by February. How can she politely tell her maid of honor to order a dress in a reasonable size, rather than an idealized one that will probably be way too small?
Emily Yoffe: She should say that what makes the most sense is to buy a dress that fits now and that if the bridesmaid has changed dress sizes as the fall approaches, there will be plenty of time to get the dress altered. If the bridesmaid insists she'd rather alter herself, then the bride should let it go. Somehow or another, the maid of honor will have something to wear on the wedding day. And if it's something ridiculous, it will be a good story to tell in the years to come.
New York, N.Y.: I am about to earn my doctorate! This process has taken me six years of graduate school in addition to four years of college. I am still struggling to finish the last chapter of my dissertation in order to meet the deadline to graduate this May. This is not the problem. The problem is my mother. Six months ago, she and my best friend were jointly planning a birthday party for me (with my knowledge) while I was out of the country. The day before my birthday, I received frantic phone calls from both of them, telling me their side of "the story" (they had a huge disagreement that resulted in hurt feelings on both sides and the party being called off).
It is now six months later, and in a recent conversation about my graduation, I mentioned to my mother that my best friend will (hopefully—if she can get time off from work) be there and sharing the large house I will be renting for those who come to attend my graduation. (My friends and family do not live on the mainland U.S., and I have long envisioned having everyone together under one roof as we celebrate the graduation festivities with barbeques, etc.) My mother refuses to stay in the house if Best Friend is there. I wrote her, explaining that this event would be about me and my accomplishments, and not their argument/power struggle. (Incidentally, Best Friend, who is my age, is over this "fight.") In her most recent e-mail, my mother seems to be threatening not to attend graduation at all, as I have "chosen" Best Friend over her. What to do? I have told her I won't choose and will instead invite everyone who has helped me achieve this life goal, but she seems unwilling to budge.
Emily Yoffe: Congratulations on your accomplishment. Since you heard both sides of the story of the fight, and your best friend is still your best friend, you sound smart not to be mediating whatever happened. I often get letters from people marking a milestone who have to contend with family members who say, "If X is invited, I won't be coming." Unless there truly is a good reason someone can't be in the room with X (sexual assault, for example), I think the best approach is to say, "I know you don't get along with X, but it would mean the world to me to have you at my graduation/wedding/etc. X has been invited, so I hope you can put your disagreements aside for this one day. If you can't, I will truly miss you."
Vienna, Va.: I am unsure how to respond to a woman in my neighborhood who cannot control her large, aggressive Doberman. The dog lunges, snarls, and barks at anyone within 20 feet—the dog often blocks paths and crossings because there's no safe way to pass. The woman will yell at the dog and jerk the leash, but with no result. When I encounter them, I basically have to stop walking until the woman hauls the dog out of sight. The woman is short and slight, and the dog is going to pull her off her feet one of these days. I feel strongly that she needs to either train her dog or keep it off the street. Is there anything I can say or do?
Emily Yoffe: You should ask to have a conversation with her, sans Doberman, and explain that when you encounter her and her dog, you feel threatened by the dog's aggression and how large and strong he is in comparison to her. Suggest that she needs to get dog training classes, because he is a potential hazard if he ever knocks her off her feet. Then if things don't improve, report her to the local animal control authorities. Explain the dog hasn't bitten anyone yet, but the owner needs an official visit because an unfortunate incident seems like just a matter of time.
Bay Area: This may be more of an etiquette question. ... I wasn't into someone I went out with twice and I am getting e-mails/texts from them. How do I say "I'm not that into you" without being unnecessarily harsh? Since it's been just two dates, one set of friends says ignore the messages and they'll get the hit; another says don't respond till days later and they'll get the hint. I would like a happy medium between being that passive and being too assertive for me, such as "It was great meeting you, but please never contact me again. Thanks."

Holocaust usually reminds people of the sorrowful period of death camps
and of the annihilation of the Jewish people. However, of the eleven
million killed during this tragic time, only six million of them were of
Jewish decent. A question uncommonly asked is, "Who were the other
five million cruelly exterminated?" One possible answer is
'homosexuals.' Accompanied by others who were also "defective
elements," (Friedman 63) homosexuals were also persecuted.
Approximately five thousand to fifteen thousand homosexuals died in the
concentration camps of the Holocaust.
Adolf Hitler's reign of terror began in January of 1933 when he was appointed Chancellor of Germany. After suffering from the humiliation and devastation of loosing the first World War, Germany was plagued with economic problems. Many were unemployed. Consequently, Hitler and his followers, the National Socialist German Workers Party, or Nazis, were provided with the opportunity to govern Germany with their promises of better lives and a better Germany.
With Hitler in power, Germany was now a dictatorship where freedoms were stripped away from its citizens. No longer was there freedom of speech, press, or assembly. By inflicting terror and fear into the hearts of the Germans, Hitler was able to do as he pleased. Baited with the wages, a feeling of belonging, and with the uniform consisting of brown shirts and high leather boots, unemployed men became Nazi Storm Troopers, or SA, and members of the Protective Squad, or SS. The SA patrolled the streets, beating and murdering those who opposed the Nazis. The SS guarded Hitler and other important figures, and later served as concentration camp guards. With these two groups, Hitler had the ability to enforce his power.
Hitler believed in the theory of the one master race. Consisting of blond, blue-eyed whites, the master race, the Aryan people, were superior to all other living beings. Hitler felt the need to eliminate all who did not fit his description of the master race. Hitler sustained that those who were different from him were to be rid of. This also included people who were considered physically and mentally unfit, homosexuals.
In 1871, Paragraph 175 of the Prussian Penal Code was passed stating that homosexuality was indeed a crime punishable by imprisonment. During the reign of the Nazis, the law still existed and was strictly enforced. During the end of the year 1934, the Nazis began gathering all the homosexuals they could retrieve. There were approximately one point two million homosexual men living in Germany during 1928. These men were found in any way possible. Their meeting places were invaded by police, lists of know homosexuals were submitted by police, and even address books of those suspected were stolen in hopes to find more. By simply going to a gay bar could have had one put in jail for six months.
Accusations of homosexuality against people who posed a threat to the Nazis were commonly made in attempt to benefit the Nazis. In one instance, General Werner von Fritsch, one who opposed Hitler's war plans, was charged with the degrading crime of being a homosexual. As a result, von Fritsch was humiliated and became the lowest ranking officer although it was later confessed that the accusation was a lie.
Once arrested and proven guilty, the prisoners were sterilized or put in prison. Then they were either taken to the concentration camps or castrated. At the camps, all prisoners were categorized with patches of various colors and shapes. Homosexuals were required to wear a serial number and a pink triangle which were sewn to both the left shirt breast pocket and the right pant leg. The triangles pointed downward.
Wearing a pink triangle meant total humiliation and discrimination against. Those seen wearing this symbol were beaten and poorly treated by not only prison guards, but by other prisoners as well. Homosexuals were to speak only to others with a pink triangle. They were only permitted to sleep in their night-shirts with the lights on and their hands above their blankets. If caught not abiding these rules, a person would be drenched with water and left in the cold for an hour. Most did not survive this harsh treatment. Those who did would have at the minimum bronchitis. Others taken for medical help rarely lived.
At the death camps, homosexuals were also not to go within five meters of the blocks of differently categorized inmates. If found doing so, the person would be whipped fifteen to twenty time. Experimental procedures were also conducted on homosexuals, often leading to death. One such experiment was to convert the homosexuals into heterosexuals by surgically inserting a capsule releasing testosterone.
Many died in the hands of the Nazis. The homosexuals and others were murdered without heart and without just or fair cause. Unfortunately, even to this very day, some people still discriminate against homosexuals and people of different colored skin. The Holocaust should serve as a reminder to everyone in the world of the mistakes of the past and how we should avoid this sort of catastrophe in the future.

>>Back to Past Projects
Project: Fan Shirt
Date: Summer 2002
This project was made specifically for Burningman 2002. It was completed in
just a few days. There were three driving factors behind making this vest.
This project consists of just a few simple parts.
Besides getting lots of compliments, on what seemed to be a first for burningman
a few other results came of this outfit. The Center Camp Cafe gave me a free
ice coffee, because the liked the fan shirt so much. Wendy and I had problems
riding our art vehicle together because my fan shirt would scrap her chest.
Several people asked to have photographs of it, and see the fans spin. It wasn't
until late in the summer of 2003 did I change the battery pack. I had been using
four nine-volts in parallel. This configuration was silly. The 9Vs would stop
spinning the fans after ten minutes. I switched over to a 12V configuration
using two large lantern batteries, which were capable of spinning the fans for
hours on end.

Article Date: 9/1/2007
Almost one in five Hispanic patients reports seeking a Hispanic eyecare provider, and 14% of African Americans seek eye care from African-American providers, according to "Americans Attitudes and Perceptions About Vision Care," a nationwide survey, conduced by Harris Poll (a market research company) and published by The Vision Care Institute, LLC (TVCI) a Johnson & Johnson Company, which funded the study. (For a PDF of the study, go to www. harrisinteractive.com/news/newsletters.)
Also, the survey revealed that the majority of Americans rely on their trusted eye doctor for information on vision care. (The poll examined Caucasian, African-American, Hispanic-American and Asian-American's perceptions and behaviors in regards to eye care.)
A nationally representative cross section of 3,716 adults age 18 and older participated. This included a total of 690 Hispanics, 676 African Americans, 686 Asian Americans and 1,566 Caucasians. Asian-American perceptions and behaviors are not covered in this article, as the survey revealed this population is generally able to find an O.D.).
Several studies have shown that minority populations have an increased prevalence of many sight-threatening diseases, such as glaucoma and increased morbidity associated with those diseases.1-3 According to the National Optometric Association (NOA) — an organization dedicated to improving the quality and accessibility of eye care in minority and other historically underserved communities — minority populations have a profound lack of awareness of asymptomatic eye disease. The TVCI survey results clearly show that one way to prevent and properly treat eye disease in minority populationsis is to provide these communities with minority optometrists.
Here, I'll discuss the history of minority students in optometry and the steps optometry must take as a profession to ensure minority populations can find an O.D. with whom they are most comfortable.
In 1972, optometrist Charles Comer, of the NAO, received a grant from the federal government to recruit minority students into optometry school.
"We had minority optometrists work with our regional trustees in going to the schools and colleges in five different regions and wherever we could find minorities who might be interested in optometry," Dr. Comer recalls.
The result: Dr. Comer, his NOA colleagues and several optometry schools helped increase the minority pool from 13 students at optometry schools across the country in 1972 to approximately 135 by 1981.
Another pioneer dedicated to making the optometric profession available to everyone: optometrist Edwin C. Marshall, associate dean of academic affairs and student administration at Indiana University School of Optometry, in Bloomington, Ind., and chairman of the Association of Schools and Colleges of Optometry (ASCO) Diversity task force.
"In just looking around I said to myself, 'Hey, there's a lack of diversity around here, and we need to do better.' So, I started the Indiana University Summer Institute program under the Health Careers Opportunity Program (HCOP), which was the federal program that provided funding," says Dr. Marshall. "The program brought 40 minority college students to campus for six weeks each year. Unfortunately, the federal funding became sparse, so the program was discontinued after 17 years." (The program ran from 1973 until 1990.)
Despite these optometrist's valiant efforts, the current enrollment percentages of African-American and Hispanic students in optometry school is dismal at best. In the United States, only 3.5% of currently enrolled optometry students are African American, according to ASCO. Hispanics do not fare much better at 5.7%. Further, when including the Inter-American University of Puerto Rico, the enrollment of Hispanics in U.S. optometry schools and Canada is even lower than that of African Americans, according to ASCO data.
Optometry can move from diversity to inclusion by following these seven steps, based on the feedback I received from students, college representatives and diversity experts:
If we, as a profession, work together to recognize that diversity in optometry is severely lacking, and we follow the seven steps mentioned above, optometry has an excellent chance of moving from the idea of diversity to the reality of inclusion. OM

Things I Learned in Yale
Almost every medical school student takes a course or two in biostatistics to learn how to understand research data. But Donna Windish, an assistant professor at the School of Medicine, has shown that the information often doesn't stick. "A significant percentage of physicians-in-training do not understand the statistics they encounter in the medical literature," she says.
In her own teaching, Windish had seen that trainees often read only the abstracts, or "ignored the statistics and skipped right to the results." This practice turns out to be common throughout the medical profession -- and potentially troubling. "An abstract usually says little about methods of design, conduct, and analysis," says Windish, citing an earlier study that showed frequent data mismatches between the abstract and the paper.
"Doctors don't necessarily need to know how to do the mathematical calculations," Windish says. "They need to understand the concepts and how to use them."
Funny, talk to most doctors and they will tell you that only MDs can prescribe because they "know all that calculus, stats and stuff." Really? I've never seen a doctor do any calculations to write a prescription. Now, I've learned that many of them them don't know how to interpret a piece of research thoroughly. That really breeds confidence.
Next, I found out in the magazine that:
Morning people are more likely to be emotionally stable than their "night owl" counterparts. Yale psychology postdoctoral researcher Colin DeYoung and his colleagues studied 279 students in an introductory psychology class at the University of Toronto and found a moderately strong correlation between "morningness" and character traits associated with stability.
Uhmm, okay, but I am not sure I buy this theory for the population at large. Undergrads are notorious for partying at night and sleeping during the day. When they have kids or get older and have to be at a job, I wonder if this still holds true? Can't researchers ever get away from studying undergraduates, who are such a peculiar type of cohort that findings may not carry over to other people at different points of life or in different environments?
Finally, I learned that working at Starbucks can save your life. There was an interesting book reviewed in the magazine with the intriguing title, How Starbucks Saved My Life: A Son of Privilege Learns to Live Like Everyone Else. Apparently, the author, who is a member of the Yale class of 63, got a plum job with J. Walter Thompson ad agency only to lose it at the age of 53. Then he goes on to have a number of misfortunes including impregnating a mistress, getting kicked out by his wife, a brain tumor etc. He loses his job and ends up working at a Starbucks in Manhattan and loves it. Naturally, the book review makes fun of this fact, describing the author as a "Starbucks sycophant" but whatever.
The book sounds fun and interesting enough to consider for my collection of reading material that I can never get to since I am too busy reading magazines such as the one described for no other reason than it was sitting beside me on the coffee table.

An adult spring breaker visiting Panama City Beach has learned a hard lesson. It is not safe to do a handstand on a balcony railing, especially if it's on a fourth floor condo.
Paramedics and Bay County sheriff's deputies were called out Saturday night at the Pelican Walk Condominiums on Thomas Drive.
Witnesses say the 30-year-old man had been drinking when he fell from the fourth floor.
He apparently landed on his feet as he tumbled to the ground. The good news is he hit a grassy area rather than a nearby cement sidewalk.
The man's identity had not been released, and neither has the blood alcohol level.

Yolngu art practice
The painting that you see today in the bark paintings or whatever, we have it all the time. It is in our body. Whatever we do the painting is there. That represents who you are and what we are and what clan we come from… That's my painting and it represents my land at Waṉḏawuy. It talks about the river, the land, the nature and it's really important. I have that painting all the time in me wherever I go, I can't lose it. I can't lose that one. – Wäka Munungurr, Yirrkala, 2013
The designs used by Yolngu artists, whether on paper, bark, ḻarrakitj (hollow logs) or on the body for ceremony, reflect each artist's clan and country. They are an expression of connection to family, country and to the Wangarr or period of ancestral creativity.
For Yolngu people the country is an embodiment of ancestral actions, the result of epic journeys by ancestors who gave shape and substance to the land as they travelled, before settling to rest in the country where their presence continues today. The land still bears the physical evidence of these journeys and the painted designs represent and embody these ancestral actions. Diamond designs, for instance, are associated with clans that have Baru the ancestral crocodile, Birrkuda (wild honey) and Gurtha (fire) as their Wangarr, and are associated with a particular area of country. The designs may also be read as title deeds to country, representing generations of intimate and deep connection to, and care for, particular areas.
Questions and activities
- In 1963 senior Yolngu artists including Munggurrawuy Yunupingu and Mawalan Marika created the Yirrkala Bark Petitions. These founding documents of the Land Rights movement in Australia, were painted with sacred designs that embodied and demonstrated their connection to country. Research the Yirrkala Bark Petition and discuss the role played by art in achieving Indigenous self-determination. Create an artwork that asserts you belong to a particular place. Consider how you will communicate your connection to this place.
- With a partner, research and discuss bark painting styles across Arnhem Land. Find examples of work by Mawalan Marika, Wonggu Mununggurr, John Mawurdjul and David Malangi. Identify and list stylistic features of art from the north-east, central and western Arnhem Land regions. Write a short newspaper article describing and comparing these regional variations and locating work by artists from Yirrkala within them.
- Find out about the tools and materials used by Yolngu artists such as bark, ochre and the marwat, a thin hair brush. Design and make your own painting or stamping tool using materials from your environment such as scrunched up paper or a ruler's edge. Collect other materials from your classroom to paint onto. Present your works to the class and talk about how the materials reflect your environment.
- clan – an extended family group sharing a common line of ancestors. Each clan is linked to a specific estate that can be on land and in the sea and to a single major ancestral being or set of ancestors.
- Wangarr – a term used by Yolngu people to describe the creative era when ancestral beings created the cultural, social and physical landscape of Aboriginal Australia. This period continues to influence the spiritual beliefs and cultural practices of Aboriginal people today.
- Yolgnu – the term used by Aboriginal people of central and eastern Arnhem Land to describe themselves

I've received a few emails over the course of the past month from the National Republican Congressional Committee denouncing Democratic U.S. Rep. Murphy.
Today's installment rips Murphy for supporting the stimulus package. "One long year after House Democrats passed their trillion dollar 'stimulus' boondoggle, Americans are facing daunting double-digit unemployment numbers and a skyrocketing deficit," said NRCC Communications Director Ken Spain said in the email. "Rather than putting the brakes on his party's reckless tax-and-spend policies, Murphy has continued to rubber-stamp their runaway spending, further pushing the federal deficit into the red."
Here's the problem: the focus of the attack is Scott Murphy, a Democrat from New York's 20th District, which stretches from Rhinebeck to Lake Placid, not Chris Murphy, a Democrat from Connecticut's 5th District.
"After a year of punishing middle-class families with mountains of debt fueled by partisan government giveaways, New York families deserve to know: Would Scott Murphy vote for the 'stimulus' today if he had the chance?" the NRCC asks.
Perhaps the good people of New York will weigh in. In the meantime, the NRCC might want to consult this before sending out another news release.

Writer-director Michel Gondry's Be Kind Rewind follows two small-town friends, Jerry (Jack Black) and Mike (Mos Def) as disaster at a VHS-only video rental store forces them to try to replace the wiped tapes ... by re-shooting the films they once contained. When their ultra-low-budget, ultra-high-spirit remakes of films like Ghostbusters, King Kong and The Lion King become hits with customers (who are told the tapes are Swedish imports), Jerry and Mike's absurd yet logical attempt to save the store becomes an unexpected starting point for their own artistic journey -- and a celebration of movie making and movie watching. Gondry brings Jerry and Mike's collaborations to life with the mix of big-idea film making and intimate wonder he's demonstrated in all his work, including Human Nature, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Science of Sleep and Dave Chappelle's Block Party. Be Kind Rewind will premiere at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival; Gondry spoke with Cinematical about everything from the joy of creation, racism in film and popular culture, and how Sundance feels different from other film festivals: " (At Sundance) ... I felt encouraged to continue; in Cannes, I felt really like people were asking me to stop doing my job."
(The audio file of this interview, like all of Cinematical's podcast offerings, is now available through iTunes; if you'd like, you can subscribe at this link. Also, you can listen directly here at Cinematical by clicking below: )
Cinematical: I guess the first, and easiest question is where did the idea behind Be Kind Rewind come from for you?
Michel Gondry: It comes from a utopia I had -- do you say 'having a utopia?' -- a belief I have that people can create their own entertainment. I always wanted to create this community that would come and tell their own story, shoot it -- and watch them. The idea is to not have one entity who creates the work, the project, and another entity who consumes it; the idea is people create their own work, like somebody cultivating his garden.
Cinematical: And in the film, we see the characters go from imitation to actual creation; that was always part of the idea?
Michel Gondry: Yes; it's very important to me that they go through this journey; I don't want to advocate imitation; I want to encourage creation. In this case, they start with imitation because their goal is not being creative; they don't realize they're being creative until they become successful and they are forced to be creative. And actually Alma (Melonie Diaz), who's sort of the smarter, the smartest guy of the band -- she's a girl -- tells them that they are much more creative than what they think they are. And then they realize that they don't have to copy movies; they can create their own. And I think it's very important that people not just make their own entertainment, but that they create it, that they really invent the story. style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold" />Cinematical: I was sort of taken by comparing Be Kind Rewind to The Science of Sleep, which was very well received, very stunning film visually -- but a lot of viewers, critics and audience members felt that it was a bit airy on a narrative level, that it didn't really have a plot engine to it; was part of Be Kind Rewind's "We have to save the store ..." plot because of that, to give something to move the movie forward?
MG: Ehhhhh, it's not my favorite part of the film, the fact that they have to save the building; in fact, at the end, you don't even know if they save it or not; what's important is that everybody can recognize they fought, and they brought the city together. I think that's more important than the building. Even if the building goes (away), they're going to find another space. But it's true; in fact, it was an idea from my producer, this idea that the building had to be demolished. I was not really in favor ... but if it can help the plot move forward and then the film is more accessible, then fine, I don't mind.
Cinematical: I was very curious about how you chose the films to "Swede" (Jerry, Mike and Alma's term for the re-shot, re-invented films the store rents); was the engine for that affection or admiration? Was it "Oh, this'll be funny to 'Swede,' or ...
MG: It was more affection; it's more effective, as well, when the movies are more iconic, when everybody remembers them. They cannot be too modern, because they aren't in VHS anymore; the store has to be in VHS in order to be erased for the story. But there is not much nostalgia about (the films chosen) -- although you could find a parallel between, for instance, Ghostbusters and Be Kind Rewind in the way that it's about a business that gets started and it's kind of very '80s; I like this idea that three losers start a business, and it becomes huge, and it's absurd. I always loved that; it's a very good comedy principle. But except from that, I didn't mean to "tribute" movies ... it's not about that; it's about people creating their own entertainment.
Cinematical: Was it tricky getting the permissions to do the "Sweded" versions of the films?
MG: It was tricky to get permission to use the box's artwork; that's what's protected. The film, you can copy the story, it's not forbidden; you can make any spoof of any movie you want. But we had to see the boxes because they make reference to them; sometimes, they shoot the movie only based on what they see on the box. So, every time we had to show the box, that was the difficult part.
Cinematical: On a lighter note, why Sweden?
MG: Completely random.
Cinematical: It's very interesting the film's playing Sundance this year, because in many ways it's about the joy of creation. Do you feel like that's a nice happy accident, that this movie about the joy of making movies wound up at a film festival that we still, correctly or not, think of a beginner's or experimental or avant-garde festival?
MG: Yeah, I think it's a good place for this movie to be; I'm still a beginner anyway, so I feel it's completely justified.
Cinematical: Do you remember what it was like when you had Human Nature, your first full-length feature, here at Sundance?
MG: Yeah, it was much nicer than Cannes, I can tell you, because I've been in both places for the same film. (Sundance) was much more friendly, and welcoming. Although, I know (Human Nature) was not really a big hit (at Sundance), but I felt encouraged to continue; in Cannes, I felt really like people were asking me to stop doing my job.
Cinematical: When you're at something like Sundance, do you get the chance to sneak out and actually see a movies?
MG: Yeah; generally, I see two other (movies), or something like that; it's great but ... I wish I could see all of them. It's just ... (Gestures at the lunch he's finished.) I have to eat while I'm talking to you, and (Sundance) is the same. It's not like I'm busy like a president, but I spend a lot of time talking about the film because I want people to know about it and go and see it, so combined with the time it takes to make a movie, (there's) not much time left. Especially when I go to a festival; it's very close to the opening, so I have other stuff to do, I can only stay two days. But we're going to play music (at Sundance) -- with Mos Def, and Jean-Michel Bernard, the composer of the film, so it's going to be good fun.
Cinematical: It's kind of simplistic, but you take on so many different roles in the making of this film; does making Be Kind Rewind just feel like a slightly larger version of making one of Mike and Jerry's efforts (in the film) where everyone does a little bit of everything?
MG: A little bit, yeah; all those techniques I wanted to use, and of course I couldn't use them in a traditional film, because some of them are so simplistic that you would not believe the world you're creating. So, it was a great opportunity to use all these ideas I constantly have. ...
Cinematical: Was it working on Dave Chappelle's Block Party that introduced you to Mos Def and made you go "I want to write for him?"
MG: Yeah -- well, I didn't write for him; I didn't have him in mind. I didn't have anyone in mind on the first draft; second draft, I think had him in mind. But definitely working with (Mos Def) and, as well, working with Dave Chappelle, made me want to do a movie more about community, about racial issues -- about more American elements; because I'm a foreigner, I would not dare do a story about that, but after Block Party, I felt much more engaged into this type of story.
Cinematical: And race really only comes up once in Be Kind Rewind, when you have to explain to Jack's Black's character Jerry that he cannot, in fact, play Fats Waller. ...
MG: There are a couple of other times; re-enacting the Fats Waller stuff, they talk about him being rejected from (boarding) the plane, and you see the black people sitting on the wing ... and I think another time we talk about the fingers (of people's hands, used as a mock piano keyboard for Jerry and Mike's Fats Waller biopic,) being black and white, but not too much. It's a delicate subject (race), but maybe by hanging with Dave a lot, I felt more comfortable bringing the subject up ...
Cinematical: ... And maybe in a more organic way, not saying, "Let us stop the film to have a heavy moment ..." but just putting it through (the film) it where it belongs ...
MG: Humor is great for talking about important subjects; I mean, if you look at the history of films, they were all paved by super-racist movies. I was talking (about D.W.) Griffith before; his movie (Birth of a Nation) is advocating the Klu Klux Clan; the first talking (picture) is The Jazz Singer, and it's a guy (in) blackface. Movies are really racist, and it's kind of amazing now how the biggest star is actually Will Smith; it's sort of a good revenge in a way. Pop culture has been invented by, I think, people coming from an African ancestry -- maybe not African ancestry, but in more recent centuries if you look at pop music -- or sports, one of the most prominent elements of pop culture -- and it's primarily performed by African-American or Black people. So it's sort of a good turnaround, how do you say?
Cinematical: Reversal?
MG: Reversal, that now the biggest star (is African-American), and there are more and more African-Americans that become big stars.
Cinematical: Looking through all of your films -- and even back to things like the stunning video for (Bjork's) "Bachelorette," which I'm a huge fan of -- storytelling seems to be a big element in your films, whether it's a magical book, or people telling their stories into the camera in Human Nature or people remembering the story of their lives in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind ... do you feel like that's something that you're especially interested in, or does it feel more like it's impossible to tell a story without talking about the nature of storytelling?
MG: It's very intriguing to try to understand: What is a story? My girlfriend and I tried to put in words what a story is, and we wrote a list of our ten favorite stories, and trying to figure out what it is. Because people tell you what a story should be in the film industry, and it's very restrictive; I think a story can be a lot of different things. But it's interesting, what makes something be a story; to me there is something I like in storytelling -- you have an event, you have some characters and locations, you have an event that later is going to interfere with the storyline and change the course of it. And I like to visualize the story in geometric shapes, to understand and compare ... that's why it was great to work with Charlie Kaufman, because he has this geometrical sensibility as well; he likes to talk about story in a geometrical way.
Cinematical: And it's good to know the rules before you break them.
MG: Yeah, but I'm not talking about rules, necessarily; I'm trying to understand what it is that makes me feel I'm following a story. What fulfills my sense of "Oh, I heard a story, I lived a story." It's not something I want to learn, it's something I want to find out by myself.

text: I'm putting a new FSA Alpha drive 3 ring crankset on my bike. The old bottom bracket was a 68x127 Shimano UN54. This is way to long and my chainline is way off. What measurment do I need to take to determine the correct spindle length? With the old BB and old crankset in the distance from the centerline of the seattube to the rings are 40mm,50mm, and 60mm. With the new crankset on the measurments are 50mm, 60mm, and 65mm. So I'm guessing that since the new crankset is out by about 10mm vs the old one I need a spindle length that is about 10mm shorter (so about a 118mm). Does this sound correct? It's a 7 speed if that makes any difference.

Rydges Esplanade Resort Cairns
Elliot Lovejoy, the male half of HOT FM 103.5 brekky duo, Stace & Elliot, was a special guest at Rydges Esplanade yesterday.
He arrived just after wrapping up his morning program and was whisked to the ninth floor by executive housekeeper, Michelle, who would put E-Dog through his paces in Man Challenge #2 – the art of bedmaking.
You could tell that Elliot considered bed making a far easier prospect than challenge #1, changing a tyre – that was until he hit the hospital corner! But hat's off to Elliot, under the capable scrutiny of Michelle, he mastered the corner to make a perfect bed.
While he was there we took the opportunity to show him how to fold the perfect towel – easy peasy – no more messy towel cupboards!

Thrill ride!
About myself
To start off, I am almost always horny! Its hard to find someone with the same sexual level as me, Im not saying its got to lead to sex all the time, but most of the time its whats on my mind. I work full time during the week and some weekends, so finding time can be a little tough if we cant be flexible. I live with two room mates who come and go as they please, also enjoy spending time outdoors, whether it be hiking, swimming, playing basketball or just hanging around a fire. I do enjoy nights in as well, maybe a nice home cooked meal and a movie with some popcorn to start the night off. I consider myself to be funny and open minded, I also know how to listen when need be.
The person I would like to meet
Im looking for someone who I can be myself around. I like to surround myself with goofy, smart and of course horny people, lol. Someone who knows that this is going to at least start out as a fwb situation and if more comes out of it, great. Someone who enjoys being outside just as much as me but someone who also likes to spend some time cuddled up with one another. I must admit that I do like a nice rack and someone who takes care of themselves, no you dont need to be a model, I actually like women with a little meat on their bones, but I dont want to be stuck sitting on a couch all day either.
What do you like to do for fun/hobbies?
I like to play basketball, baseball, golf, swimming, hiking or walking. Catching a new movie or just catching up on a tv series is a good way to spend a rainy day. Going out to dinner or bbq in the back yard is also at the top. As long as we can keep a conversation going and not having any awkward silence, we will be alright!
My idea of a great date
Chemistry plays a small part, need to be attracted to one another physically and being able to laugh and have a conversation. Going out to dinner at some outside patio, having a few drinks, teasing with words with a little touchy feely going on under the table. Then after dinner driving around for a bit and finding a nice secluded spot, start kissing a little and then....
What do you find attractive in people?
Personality is key, the ability to laugh (even if its at yourself) and have a good time with it. I do love a nice set of eyes and a stellar smile! I also find someone who is open minded and willing to try new things and take chances attractive. Speaking whats really on their mind is also an attraction.
What do others do that irritate you?
Not being honest. We are all adults, no need to lie, dont try and make it into something its not.
What do you think is your best quality?
Im funny, at least I think I am. I like to joke around and have a good time. I have been told that my eyes are nice.
What one thing would you change about your personality if you could?
I dont think I would change too much, I mean, thats what makes me, me.
What one question would you want answered in an initial email from another member?
What are some turn ons/offs?
Describe your physique.
I guess you could say stocky. I have a little extra weight that I am attempting to lose, I mean who doesnt. I have broad shoulders (played football in high school), average size arms, a little cushin but not too bad.Tall, I fill out well i guess.
What do you do well sexually?
Foreplay. I love oral sex, both giving and receiving it. I know how to use my hands, tongue and package. After I cum, I am able to stay hard and cum again, so high stamina.
What is the favorite thing you like sexually done to you?
I love getting a nice blowjob then having her get on her hands and knees and entering from behind while grabbing at her tits, reverse cowgirl and missionary are good too.
What fantasy(s) are you still waiting to experience?
I have never had a mff threesum.
Never had an experience with a woman over 40
Do you have any STDs (Sexually Transmitted Diseases)?
Are you looking for a one night stand, to play for a while, or a long-term Adult relationship?
One night stands are good when a dry spell hits, however I am looking for more of a fwb relationship. One where we can hang out without having sex as well. Although, sex is a big part of this.

I think that you should follow your gut. If you think your baby is ready, then go for it. If you try it out and your baby is having problems, then stop and ask your pediatrician. Don't let anyone put you down, people should realize that it can be difficult to know what is the right thing to do. I'm going through the same thing and am trying formula first, and then I'm going to try the rice. That's what I'm comfortable with. Hope that helps :)posted 11/16/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
I can't belive that someone would call any one stupid for giving a baby rice or cereal before 4 months! When I was a baby my mum started ween me at 3 months, as that was the current guidance... Do what you feel is best, seek advice for sure but you know what to do for the best and I really hope that you don't take that "stupid" reply to heart xposted 08/17/2012 by staceyfaye
I started my daughter on rice at 3 weeks she wasnt getting enough milk and wouldnt keep it down she is a tall little infant who was 7lbs and 5.5 ounzes. i started rice so she would gain wieght and my mom said it would help her sleep(she never had a problem with sleeping) but it makes her sleep up to 8 to 9 hours at night so it helps keep them fuller longer and helps them gain wieght. also with my daughter i but rice ceral in her bottle with a cut nipple and if i thought she wouldnt poop i put in a2 (baby) spoon full of apple sauce and its pretty much a laxitive so she still has runny poops but is still getting a full tummy.posted 06/01/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
7 week old son started taking formula like crazyposted 02/04/2012 by klm627
I was 14 when my mom had my youngest sister so I remember it pretty well. The baby had acid reflux and spit up every meal. When she was 2 months old, she went to the hospital because she was not back to her birth weight. The doctor recommended putting cereal in her bottle for her. She stopped spitting up and she gained weight. She didn't have any problems with bm either. It was very little cereal in the bottle though, and we did not try feeding it to her as a solid until she was 4 months. Good luck!posted 09/16/2011 by mabulhosn
I have an aunt who just had a baby and at the end of 1 mth they began putting one ounce of cereal in the bottle and he accepted, he has no problems at all and is now 5 mths old and is completely healthy. Do what feels good to you.posted 08/21/2011 by Arybaby123
My doctor agreed on me to give our baby 1/2 spoon of cereral on the last milk to help her sleep thru the night. We have being doing it and she hasnt shown any problem in her digestion or her poops. I use an oatmeal cereal.posted 05/18/2011 by apsuazo
I would ask a dr or nurse first. But it wouldn't hurt to try rice or oatmeal cereal in one of the bottles. I would try it during the day if you can and see how your baby reacts to it. I would do 2 baby teaspoons of cereal at first and see how the baby likes it. I don't believe this will harm your baby because you are not trying to feed him baby food, it's just cereal. Hope this helpsposted 02/07/2011 by evemommyof2
I would suggest aot-meal if any solid at that stage (the "jelly" part) to feed him, 2-3 baby spoons at the time of the day his apetite is the biggest. My mom used to do this with all 3 of her babies since we were good eaters and used to spit up due to too our need of too much fluid (formula) at a time and we were much more relaxed. Also, try a few spoons of tomato juice p/day - it is helping my LO (5 weeks) so much with his constipation (when I accidently use to skip a day, his stool is hard the next...). And yes I agree w/indpndnt.mommy on ppl that can't wait for the chance to show you how "morally superior" they are to you! With a healthy amount of common sense you can make your own choices. Doctors love to scare you with all the worse-case scenarios - it is their job and they tend to generalize too. Good luck ;)posted 10/13/2010 by Jurika
first and foremost... the way u choose to parent ur child is completely up to u. not up to ur dr and certainly not up to any of us... so please dont listen to people who call u "stupid" if u choose to do something against any of our advice. we are simply PARENTS or SOON-TO-BE-PARENTS so any one of us who would call u "stupid" for choosing to do something we feel is not for the best would be STUPID themselves. u do what u feel is best for ur baby, dont listen to overly hormonal pregnant women who feel belittling others make themselves feel smarter and/or look smarter to others. ur that babys mother... if u want him to have cereal, then go for it. others have done it and i doubt any baby has died from a cereal overdose. but if ur not ready to give him cereal due to the opinions and experiences of the other mommys on here, then i would wait. either way, ur not STUPID.posted 08/30/2010 by indpndnt.mommy

Yellow Fever
What is yellow fever?
Yellow fever is a rare viral disease caused by the bite of a mosquito. But many countries still require visitors to be vaccinated for it before entering.
Yellow fever is found mainly in certain areas of Africa and in Brazil. In Brazil, infections happen only every now and then. They are usually among forestry and agricultural workers. In Africa, infections occur mostly in the tropical areas of western and central Africa. But they also happen in cities and jungle areas.
What causes yellow fever?Yellow fever is caused by a virus (flavivirus). The virus is passed on to people through the bite of a mosquito (Aedes aegypti).
What are the symptoms of yellow fever?
Each person may have slightly different symptoms. The following are the most common symptoms:
- Flu-like symptoms, such as fever, headache, vomiting, and backache
- Slow and weak pulse
- Bleeding of the gums
- Bloody urine
- Yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice)
Symptoms usually occur within 3 to 6 days after you are exposed to the virus. Symptoms may look like other health problems. Always see your health care provider for a diagnosis.
How is yellow fever diagnosed?Your health care provider will ask about your past health and travel history. You will also need an exam. Blood tests can also help with a diagnosis.
How is yellow fever treated?
Your health care provider will figure out the best treatment for you based on:
- How old you are
- Your overall health and past health
- How sick you are
- How well you can handle specific medicines, procedures, or therapies
- How long the condition is expected to last
- Your opinion or preference
Treatment is aimed at controlling your symptoms. This includes rest and plenty of fluids. You may also need to take medicine to help relieve fever and aching. You should not take aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicines. These may raise the risk of bleeding.
You should protect yourself from mosquitoes during the first few days of illness. This may mean staying indoors or under a mosquito net. This will help keep you from passing the disease on to other people.
What are the complications of yellow fever?Most people who get yellow fever do not have complications. They may not even know they have had the disease. Some people who get it may have some weakness and fatigue for a few months after symptoms go away. If severe disease occurs, death is possible.
Can yellow fever be prevented?A vaccine is available for yellow fever. The disease no longer occurs in the U.S. But talk with your health care provider to see if you need the shot before visiting areas where yellow fever still exists. People who have had yellow fever develop lifelong immunity.
When should I call my health care provider?Call your health care provider right way if your symptoms get worse or you have new ones.
Key points
- Yellow fever is a disease caused by a virus passed on through the bite of a mosquito.
- Yellow fever occurs only in certain areas of Africa and South America.
- The disease causes flu-like symptoms, slow and weak pulse, bleeding of the gums, bloody urine, and jaundice.
- Treatment is aimed at controlling the symptoms. It includes rest and plenty of fluids. You may also need to take medicine to help relieve fever and aching.
- A vaccine is available to prevent yellow fever. You may need it before traveling to some countries.
Next steps
Tips to help you get the most from a visit to your health care provider:
- Before your visit, write down questions you want answered.
- Bring someone with you to help you ask questions and remember what your provider tells you.
- At the visit, write down the names of new medicines, treatments, or tests, and any new instructions your provider gives you.
- If you have a follow-up appointment, write down the date, time, and purpose for that visit.
- Know how you can contact your provider if you have questions.

Pulse Pause Moments: Wolverine
I don't know if I've posted a Pulse Pause post about Wolverine (or Hugh Jackman) before, but even if I have, I figure he's worth a repeat.
The release of Wolverine, which is the "Japan story" that the comic book fans have been drooling over for years, prompted us to trek through all the X-Men movies — the original three, plus First-Class and Origins.
Next year, the Days of Future Past story will be released as a movie. I haven't read that one, but Wolverine is one of the principal players, and Mark (who is a fan of the original X-Men comics) says the Days of Future Past story is an absolute doozy. In the comics, the story begins somewhere in the future. Logan is old…and married to Storm.
Just that teaser alone is enough to have me waiting impatiently for the movie, which is written and directed by Bryan Singer, who wrote and directed the first (and arguably the best) X-Men movie.
The character of Wolverine, especially as he is played by Hugh Jackman, is everything you could possibly want in a bad boy hero. Apart from being physically indestructible, he's tough to the core with the sort of personal grit that defies odds and wins wars.
Yet at the same time, he's vulnerable, able to love deeply, and in the first three X-Men movies, he was pulled from the lonely darkness into human comfort and company, all because of his love for Jean Grey. The ultimate moment, when he stepped up to kill her because no one else could, is possibly the most fraught dilemma any thinking man could face…and he faced it squarely.
It doesn't hurt that Hugh Jackman makes the character sexy and oh, so attractive.
Jackman has said in interviews that he loves the Wolverine character and will continue to play him as long as the fans demand more.
That's just fine by me.

even if you did, he is definitely worth the repeat and another. I husband anticipates anything with Hugh Jackman simply because even though its an action flick, I'll cuddle when Jackman is in the movie. No romances here, unless its a comedy when it comes to movies. Books on the other hand are a whole new ballgame and all bets are off.
Wolverine is the alpha and the omega of the whole franchise. I remember the end of the first movie when he kisses Anna Paquin. Yowza!
Jackman has never done a character better. (Well, I haven't seen Le Mis, so…) I'm glad he gets how awesome he is in this role.

Health officials say they haven't found a connection between four cases of flesh-killing bacteria infections in Boulder County in the past 16 months.
In fall 2004, University of Colorado physicist and Nobel laureate Eric Cornell was diagnosed with the rare, invasive form of streptococcus A- bacteria.
Since then one person has died after becoming infected and two others had to have multiple surgeries to remove infected tissue.
Boulder County health officials tell the Daily Camera newspaper that there appears to be no evidence that strep A- infections are on the rise in the area.
But they say it does not track incidents of the infection.
Necrotizing fasciitis, commonly known as flesh-killing disease and strep-linked toxic shock syndrome are the rarest but most severe ailments associated with strains of the bacteria.
Strep A, commonly found in the throat and on the skin, causes more than 10 million cases of strep throat and mild skin infections each year nationwide.

Wow that is a terrible example of an AP'er.
I think it is a terrible example of behavior in general at these sort of events. I've seen not-so-relaxed behavior when just observing as well. And I haven't even run into the guy who has been having collimation issues all night and trying to tweak it yet.
If a guy is letting themselves be wound up over something, then that is a possible problem in the making. It doesn't really matter what it is.

Home Opinion Editorials High stakes
High stakes
Normally we're leery when local government officials fly to Washington, D.C., to lobby.
But the plight that might be facing Ash Grove Cement Co. later this week — and by inevitable extension also facing Baker County — surpasses normal by a goodly distance.
If the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency imposes mercury-emissions limits that don't include a subcategory that acknowledges the higher-than-average levels of mercury in the limestone that Ash Grove uses at its plant near Durkee, then the company probably would have to close the factory.
The damage to Baker County's economy that would result is significant.Plenty significant to justify County Commission Chairman Fred Warner Jr.'s trip to the nation's capital last week, at a cost of about $1,000, to plead on Ash Grove's behalf.
Here's a couple of numbers to put into context what's at stake:
• $9 million — Ash Grove's approximate annual payroll.
• $1 million — Ash Grove's approximate annual property tax bill to Baker County. The county's general fund totals about $8 million.
Without Ash Grove's payment, it's almost inconceivable that the county could balance its budget without laying off workers and cutting services.
Yet as dire as the effects would be on the county's budget, the private sector economy would suffer more.
The multiplier effect — the notion that each dollar spent starts a sort of cascade effect that generates more economic activity — also works, unfortunately, in reverse.
Closing Ash Grove would delete millions of dollars from the county's economy.
We hope EPA acts reasonably. It's certainly reasonable for the agency to limit mercury emissions from cement plants. That should have happened decades ago, in fact.
The Durkee plant is the second-largest industrial source of airborne mercury in the nation. That's not acceptable.
Fortunately, Ash Grove agrees. Over the past two years the company has spent $20 million to install devices that, according to the company, cut the Durkee factory's mercury releases by 90 percent.
Yet the EPA, absent the subcategory, would require 99 percent.
90 percent is major progress.
Battering a rural economy, for want of a meager 9 percent more, is the opposite.

Our house phone has had many phone attempts (morning, noon and night) from this number. I finally answered it and the caller "clicked on" identifying herself as Amanda with Breast Cancer Research" and asking for the lady of the house. After explaining she wasn't available she said, "oh I can talk to either one of you". I explained we were on the do not call list and had an unpublished phone number. She then began to get very "pushy" at which time I got hotter under the collar and told her in no uncertain terms to remove us from their list. I am so tired of all these bogus phone calls on landline and cell phones I could strangle someone. What does it take to get these "dickheads" to leave us alone. One thing is for certain, we will not contribute to these "nonprofits" anymore! Perhaps that is the way to get the message across. Good luck. Ken in WI07/20/2013 11:14AM

Former Palau Leader Poised For Return To Presidency
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (Radio New Zealand International, Nov. 8, 2012) – A former president is poised to return to office to lead the Palau government for the next four years.
About 8,000 of the country's 15,000 registered voters came out to vote in the general elections and unofficial results have Tommy Remengesau leading the incumbent president Johnson Toribiong by 1,300 votes.
Oceania TVs Rolynda Jonathan says there are still at least one thousand absentee votes to count but says Senator Remengesau is in a good position.
Ms. Jonathan says the senator, who was president from 2000 to 2008, is popular for a variety of reasons.
"He's one of the presidents that a lot of people basically grew up with and he has a lot of relatives so in Palau voting really doesn't depend on the policies that you want to work with but sort of depends on the many people that you know."
Rolynda Jonathan says the race for vice-president is much closer, with Antonio Bells leading the incumbent Kerai Maruir by just 300 votes.
The absentee votes will be counted next Tuesday and official results announced the following week.
