Ted Simons: Good evening and welcome to "Arizona Horizon." I'm Ted Simons. President Obama says there are no winners in the fight over the debt ceiling and government shutdown. But how much will that fight impact upcoming elections? ASU pollster Bruce Merrill is here to look at potential winners and losers from all the drama. Good to see you again.
Bruce Merrill: Good to see you again.
Ted Simons: Speaker Boehner, his quote after all of this was over, we fought the good fight but just don't win. Does most of the Republican Party consider this a good fight?
Bruce Merrill: No, the party is seriously divided. Even before this all started, remember Karl Rove was saying that the far right of the party could cause a terrible split in the Republican Party and cost them election seats coming up in the next election. So, I think you're going to see a party that is going to be divided. It's going to be divided nationally, and in Arizona.
Ted Simons: It's in Arizona as well, because Arizona is pretty solidly red right now?
Bruce Merrill: It is pretty solidly red, but we're talking about within the Republican Party. What has happened within the past 10 or 12 years, right wing of the party, particularly the tea party people, have driven many of the more moderate republicans frankly almost out of the party. And with this rift now, it may very well be that you will see increased conflict between a more developing moderate wing in the Republican Party, compared with the right wingers that control the institutional party.
Ted Simons: Well, with this battle, did the tea party gain more influence or lose some influence?
Bruce Merrill: It depends on what your frame of reference it. Keep in mind, that the interesting thing is that the people, the tea party people, did not represent the majority of people in America. But they only have to represent the people in their own particular districts. And in those districts, these people are going to be seen as heroes. It is actually going to help them. Because we've got this situation where you have 435 individual constituencies, and it doesn't matter what the national interest is. If you want to get reelected, you better understand and espouse the interest of the people in your district.
Ted Simons: In Arizona is that the case as well?
Bruce Merrill: Sure, I don't think enough has been made of it. Keep in mind, in Arizona, our four republican Congressmen were involved in this split, this anti-, being very somewhat negative towards what was happening in the country. And what is particularly interesting to me, while all of the Republican Congressmen were actually more supportive of what was going on with the tea partiers, at the Senate side, John McCain has been very vociferous saying this was a mistake. I told them they could not win with this strategy. They didn't win and won't win in the future.
Ted Simons: The strategy initially was to defund and get rid of the Affordable Care Act. With all of this going on, what happens to efforts to destabilize Obamacare?
Bruce Merrill: Obamacare probably isn't going to go away. As more and more people get on to Obamacare and get the benefits from it, it will be harder and harder to make big changes. I think anybody feels that we could do a better job. The bill needs to be improved. The service needs to be improved. And it will be. But I think, Ted, one of the most significant things that I hope there is more discussion about is this wasn't business as usual. I mean, there has always been since the beginning of this country states' rights people, tea partiers, etc. But what was different about this to me is one of the most basic values that we have taught, and you probably remember when you were a kid in grade school, that the electoral process is one where we have fights during the elections. The majority wins, and there is kind of a responsibility for the minority to support the majority position until the next election. What happened this time is a small group of extremists said we're not playing that game anymore. We're not waiting until the next election when we fight this out. We want our way right now. And I think they frankly made a mistake.
Ted Simons: How do we get to the point where a small group of extremists can have this much influence and can basically say either I get my way or I shut everything down?
Bruce Merrill: Well, it has to do partially with the rules of the Senate and the House and the power of somebody like Boehner, but it also has to do a lot with the media. The media loves this kind of conflict. Whether or not this is going to affect the candidates individually a year and a half, two years from now, it depends on what media crisis exists a year from now. If the election were held today, it would have hurt the Republicans badly. Who knows what the next media crisis is going to be a year, year and a half from now?
Ted Simons: Who knows who the next face of both parties will be. Obviously the Democrats have a president in office and they have Hillary Clinton, kind of the lady in waiting there. Who is the face of -- is Ted Cruz the face of the Republican Party right now?
Bruce Merrill: No, and the reason -- in fact, what's happened, you have to keep in mind that while these -- the tea party is a very small percentage of the Republican Party overall, and even in Arizona. I've done research where my estimate is that even among registered Republicans in Arizona, about 15% are hard core tea partiers, and about another 15% are supporters of the tea party, but not in the extreme way. Even in the Republican Party in Arizona, the tea party is not a majority of Republicans. Most voters in Arizona and in the nation are moderates. And that's one of the interesting things that we've seen through this conflict in the leadership is the leadership is very extreme, where the mass public is pretty moderate. They're not -- the moderate people aren't being represented in this battle at all.
Ted Simons: Very quickly. I will give you some names. Quick profile of how they came out of all of this. John Boehner.
Bruce Merrill: Well, within the organization, he probably came out all right. In the sense that he's still speaker and it is very hard to unseat a speaker.
Ted Simons: Mitch McConnell.
Bruce Merrill: I have a lot of admiration for him. He's running in an area where he's got a tough tea party opponent in the primary, and yet he came out and was, along with the women, was probably the person that brokered this deal. You have to respect him in that he did what was the right thing to do rather than just worrying about getting reelected.
Ted Simons: Harry Reid.
Bruce Merrill: Harry Reid is Harry Reid. I mean, his expression hasn't even changed over this period. And Harry Reid depends on what happens with the Democratic Party in the future.
Ted Simons: Nancy Pelosi.
Bruce Merrill: Nancy Pelosi is Nancy Pelosi. I don't think you can change either of their images very much.
Ted Simons: Last one, President Obama.
Bruce Merrill: Well, you know, he is an interesting person in that he did stand up for what he believed, and you have to keep in mind that this Affordable Health Care Act is his legacy. And he was fighting for the most important part of his administration and you have to admire that he stood up for it.
Ted Simons: Are we going to go through this whole song and dance again come January and February, government shutdown and debt ceiling coming back up again?
Bruce Merrill: I wish we could say that we weren't. My guess is that we will. I can't see any reason, if you listen to the tea party people, they don't accept the fact that they lost in this election or this outcome. They're ready to go again. And I think we're going to have a lot of conflict in another three months.
Ted Simons: Good to see you.
Bruce Merrill: Good to see you.

Hmmm. I don't see any kind of credits for who is the author of the poems. Even on your About page. That would be a good addition.
May I also suggest the WP-Print plugin by Gamerz. Because your site is black with white text, it might be nice to have an alternative printable version.
Since your site is focused on the WORDS, I think it is nice that the theme doesn't have graphics.

El Señor Es Mi Rey Group
Update on El Señor Es Mi Rey GroupEl Señor es mi Rey (The Lord is my King) communal bank is made up of thirteen members, ten women and three men, all responsible parents who want to have personal success. They are from the north of the country. They are characterized by their hard work, responsibility and desire for personal success. In their spare time they like to spend time in their children's company. Sadly, a lack of financial resources means they couldn't pursue a career and were forced to start working from an early age. Currently they fight every day to provide a better future for them.
Thanks to her efforts and desire to get ahead, the coordinator of the group who is from Candelaria owns a grocery store - a small stall from which she sells edible products in small quantities like rice, beans, sugar, milk, bread, detergent, maize, matches, olive oil, juices, sodas, greens and eggs. She works 12 hours a day and her business is located at her home. The objective of this loan is to be working capital for her business buying and selling edible products so that in the not too distant future she can improve her income.
The El Señor es mi Rey communal bank thanks Kiva lenders for the help they provide to people without means and from poorer countries like Nicaragua so that they can have dignified jobs.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Online video key to reach millennials
5 June 2014
LOS ANGELES: Using online video to aid discovery and Twitter to build loyalty are two of six key ways to reach millennials, an executive from REVOLT, the cable network set up by music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs, has argued.
Jake Katz, REVOLT's vp/audience insights and strategy, discussed this vital – and valuable – group at the Future of Consumer Intelligence (FOCI) conference, run by the Institute for International Research.
"This is a consumer group that needs to discover and not be told," he said. (For more, including results from research with millennials, read Warc's exclusive report:
Sean Combs' REVOLT cable network lets millennials own programming
Online video plays a particularly important role for millennials who are looking for information. "YouTube is the new Google," said Katz. "This is a place in a digital space where consumers are in discovery mode."
Social media has another essential function for marketers, too: showing that their brands are honest, open and willing to interact.
"The future consumer builds brand loyalty through Twitter, expecting an honest, two-way dialogue," Katz continued.
Indeed, despite having been made available on both Comcast and Time Warner Cable, REVOLT began life on YouTube and Twitter. And it remains convinced that new media is changing the old rules.
"The future consumer is engaged through TV, while digital provides reach," said Katz. "Digital used to provide the engagement and TV provided frequency. Those two things are now completely switched."
His next guideline for connecting with millennials similarly fed into the need for social expertise, in terms of trying to effectively meet consumers "in person" and engaging them in real time.
Finally, he advised that standalone campaigns often add to the existing content overload, and are less desirable then amplifying something "consumers already are doing" – a goal also helping brands to use digital more strategically.

Playing with Stereotypes. Redefining Hispanic Identity in Post-national Literature and Cinema.
full name / name of organization:
Catholic University of Leuven (K.U.Leuven), BELGIUM; Department of Spanish and Latin-American Literature
contact email:
Keynote speakers
Ruth Amossy (Tel Aviv University)
General Presentation
Over the past ten years, the concept of the 'stereotype' has become a subject of intense debate in literary studies, especially in Europe. Although in daily usage the term 'stereotype' often has a negative connotation, the theoreticians of stereotyping (Amossy, Dufays, Lippman) emphasize its indispensable and constructive role in processes of social communication, including art.
This conference, which brings together some of the most important specialists of the theory of stereotyping, seeks to apply this theoretical reflection (about stereotyping) to a relatively new field to its study: the Hispanic world.
The conference focuses on the past two decades in order to examine how, in a post-national context, literature and cinema offer new configurations of Hispanic identity. When writers and movie directors revert to existing stereotypes to rethink this identity, how do these figure in their work? Are existing stereotypes being recycled, or, on the contrary, are new ones being forged? Is Dufays's hypothesis confirmed, according to which postmodernity, in dealing with stereotypes, is characterized by a playful attitude — a to-and-fro between participation and distancing? If so, under which modalities does this attitude present itself (irony, satire, parody, the grotesque, …)? Can other uses be observed?
The organizers of the conference invite proposals for papers on the following themes:
a) examples of concrete uses of stereotyping in literary (including essays) and cinematographical works related to the Hispanic world. Of particular interest are:

Hi there,
We've been reading the posts here, and so thankful to know that there are other families going through similar challenges. Finally I can post an intro while pumping, rather than looking up solutions online to some puzzling new thing that has me worried about our dd.
My dd was born in March, at 33.3 weeks, in the nicu for 5 weeks, and has been home for about a month. She's now 10 weeks old and ~8lbs. She's a good weight, but still on an apnea monitor and having trouble nursing.
Having our dd is an amazing experience. We are so in love with her. At times though we do have to remind ourselves that we are dealing with more challenges than the average newborn has. Thanks for sharing all of your stories. Here are some of our experiences so far...
Nursing: has been difficult. I didn't see her until 2 days after birth, when I could get up from my emergency c-sec to get to the nicu. She was on gavage feeding tube with my colostrum + fortifier, and then bottle fed so she wouldn't use so many calories just feeding...I didn't start trying to nurse until week 4 and not consistently until week 6. We are using the medela SNS - which was unsucessful for a couple frustrating weeks...but she's starting to get the hang of it, nursing for 5-30min + supplementing 70ml with SNS and bottle after. She usually stops either b/c she falls asleep or gets frustrated by latching problems or sns/shield malfunction. We are hopeful that she continues to get better and try offering a shieldless breast to her once a day to see if she can latch yet.
Sleepiness: We don't always stick to our feeding schedule because she often is too sleepy to eat. Luckily she's still gaining weight ok.
Nights: DH takes care of the night feedings, while I pump. Then one of us washes bottles and the other changes her and puts her to bed...our record is 45 min. for a session...does it get better? Our ped doesn't want us to eliminate a night feeding for a few more months.
Apnea: We are longing for the day that we can move around with her (even at home) without being tethered. She is getting better. Starting with multiple episodes a day at week 5 and now is having a couple episodes every few days. How do other families deal with their preemie being tethered?
All in all the feeding and the tethering has kept us pretty isolated (at least dh gets to see the the outside world at work) and also kept us from even taking many walks outside....I hope we will start to manage time/tasks better to be able to leave the house more often. It get's me batty sometimes. My mom has been with us since dd was born, but leaving for home in 2 days.... needless to say...we are nervous about the days to come.
Anyone else with advice or experience with any of these challenges - we'd love to hear from you! Thanks for reading. Boards like these give us strength.
:) - Linh

Iran: We have 3,000 centrifuges working at enrichment plant
Ahmadinejad confirms Natanz plant is fully operating; Italy: Iran has every right to peaceful nuclear program.
Iran has achieved a landmark, with 3,000 centrifuges fully working in its controversial uranium enrichment program, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced Wednesday.
"We have now reached 3,000 machines," Ahmadinejad told thousands of Iranians gathered in Birjand, in eastern Iran, in a show of defiance of international demands to halt the program believed to be masking the country's nuclear arms efforts.
Ahmadinejad has in the past claimed that Iran succeeded in installing the 3,000 centrifuges at its uranium enrichment facility at Natanz. But Wednesday's claim was his first official statement that the plant is now fully operating all those centrifuges.
When Iran first announced launching the 3,000 centrifuges in April, the UN nuclear watchdog agency, the International Atomic Energy Agency, said Tehran had only 328 centrifuges up and running at Natanz's underground facility.
Italian Premier Romano Prodi said Tuesday that Iran has every right to develop a peaceful nuclear program, while the international community has an equal right to verify its peaceful nature using the existing judicial measures.
In a speech delivered to Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah, on a visit to Rome, Prodi also said that Italy opposes any military action against Iran over Tehran's contentious nuclear program because such an attack could destabilize the entire Middle East.
Italy, as of this year a non-permanent member of the UN. Security Council, traditionally has good relations with Tehran and maintains a strong presence in Iran's gas market through Italian oil and gas giant Eni SpA.
Senior government officials, including the foreign minister, have spoken out against any use of force against Iran, saying that a new war in the region would be disastrous and calling instead for increased diplomatic efforts.
Iran insists its nuclear program is peaceful, but its assertions are widely disbelieved.
The Security Council has demanded that Tehran suspend uranium enrichment -a potential pathway both to generating nuclear power and creating the fissile core of warheads.
Iran could face further sanctions if upcoming reports by the European Union and the International Atomic Energy Agency do not show improved Iranian cooperation.
Germany's Merkel reaffirms readiness to impose new sanctions on Iran Chancellor Angela Merkel on Tuesday reaffirmed Germany's readiness to back tougher sanctions against Iran if it fails to back down in the dispute over its nuclear ambitions.
Before a weekend visit to U.S. President George W. Bush's Texas ranch, Merkel also stressed her commitment to a diplomatic resolution of the issue.
Germany, along with the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, has been at the forefront of efforts to address concerns over Iran's nuclear program.
The Security Council has demanded that Tehran suspend uranium enrichment - a potential pathway both to generating nuclear power and creating the fissile core of warheads.
Iran could face further sanctions if upcoming reports by the European Union and the International Atomic Energy Agency do not show improved Iranian cooperation.
In her acceptance speech for the Leo Baeck Prize - the highest honor of Germany's Central Council of Jews - Merkel stressed the special historic responsibility of Germany for the security and existence of Israel.
"I am aware that, in view of the threat to Israel from Iran's nuclear program, these cannot remain empty words," she said.
"We are looking, together with our partners, for a diplomatic solution," Merkel said. "Part of that is that Germany, if Iran does not give way, is prepared for further and tougher sanctions."
Merkel said that she would discuss Iran, as well as prospects for peace between Israelis and Palestinians, during her meeting with Bush.

The Wall Street Journal Tries to Soothe 'Anxiety' Over Fedora Etiquette
Don't worry, hat wearers. The 'Journal' will make it all better.
Don't accuse The Wall Street Journal of being behind the times. They've been on top of the hat-trend forever — in fact, the paper acknowledges, it's already "old hat to hipsters in areas like Williamsburg, Brooklyn, who started wearing fedoras, rounded derby hats and, in warmer weather, straw hats, more than two years ago." Hipsters, please. You think you can get one over on the Journal? But now that this trend is going mass, things are getting pretty tense out there. "Today, confusion over the rules of hat wearing is leading to some awkward situations."
So just how uncomfortable are things? Take Eric Soler of Hackensack, New Jersey, who went into a bar in Hoboken with a hat on his head, only to be told to take it off. Says Soler, "'I'm not wearing a baseball cap or a ski hat, I'm wearing an $80 fedora!'" It was confusing. Soler had $80 in disposable income that he chose to spend on a hat — why do the rules still apply to him?
Soler could take a page from fellow fedora-wearer Luis Quaresma, who writes his own rules of hatiquette.
"If I'm going for fast food, I'll leave it on. If I'm having a nice sit-down dinner, I'll take it off." When out at a party or club, the 30-year-old says, "I don't take my hat off unless girls want me to take it off."
Trust us, Quaresma, we want you to take it off.

The company assumes no obligation to update the information provided in this conference call. And now, I would like to turn the call over to Fusen Chen. Fusen?
Fusen Ernie Chen
Thank you, Mike, and welcome to Mattson Technology's Second Quarter 2013 Earnings Call. Over my past 5 months with Mattson, I have been able to look closely at our operations and continue to support improvements to control all operating expenses. While we are driving to reduce our cost and achieve profitability, we are also mindful of maintaining our ability to properly serve our customers. As Mattson approaches its optimal level of operational efficiency, we continue necessary investments in R&D and a direct customer support. Already, an important example is Mattson's expansion of our operation in China to support a greenfield wafer fab, where our customer has selected our products. With this focus, we should achieve sustainable revenue growth and a profitability in the future.
Now I would like to discuss our view of the overall industry and the technology trend that drive the semiconductor equipment business. Mobile electronics are well established to drive consumer electronics growth going forward. The compound annual growth rate based on production unit of smartphones and tablets will be in the range of 20% to 30% over the next 4 years.
We also see Ultrabook growing in the range of 40% to 50% over the same periods, at the low unit volume but with higher IC-content per unit. This growth is being realized today, as for the first time, we see smartphones accounting for over half of all mobile phones shipped this year, and that unit shipments of tablets expected to exceed unit shipment of laptops. What this means for the short term is that the recovery, once you start it early this year will continue through the end of the year and into 2014. The main driver for the second half of 2013 will be memory companies purchasing capital equipment in order to ramp their inventory of sub 30-nanometer technology or DRAM and the 3D NAND IC unit next year.
The overall semiconductor IC market is expected to grow approximately 5% in 2013, with the memory segment, both DRAM and the NAND, growing about 9%. While overall CapEx all remained flat for 2012, the ratio of spending shifted toward greater equipment spending. The industry has already realized higher equipment spending from foundries in the first half of the year. In the second half, we will be supporting the ramping requirement of our memory customers.
Looking forward, mobile electronics will continue to drive at advanced foundry and the memory capacity. This technology inflections will require more efficient and effective wafer fab equipment. Mattson has developed technology with higher productivity that meets and that exceeds our customers' requirement to fabricate the advanced semiconductor devices.
Now let me provide updates on each of our products and how they are meeting the challenges of this technology inflection point.
In Etch, the enhanced performance capability of our new proprietary plasma cells for our paradigmE. have been recognized by our customers. Our Etch system are being used for development of 2x nanometer DRAM and the 3D NAND processes and the initial production line. In the foundry segment, we continue to develop process solution follow requirement of 3D NAND, 3D FinFET transistors. Working closely with our customers, we are developing Etch applications to enable the complex masking scenarios along the FinFET structures for 2x nanometer and the smaller technology nodes.
In[indiscernible] anneal, our expansion in the 2x nanometer foundry segment will continue through the end of the year, with our Helios XP that is providing a high-volume manufacturing solution at the major foundries. The Helios XP is a [indiscernible]wafer heating with a differential thermal energy control, provides optimal reduced CMOS stress and the pattern-loading effect performance. The millisecond anneal, the middle hard and important law in the startup of a major 2x nanometer logic production line, having long intensive production testing in-house. We have now shipped an additional system for volume production, and that we expect incremental revenue contribution beginning in the first quarter of 2013.

Local group Next Generation among bands performing Sunday at Temecula festival

A lot of people think of bluegrass country as somewhere in the South, Appalachia and the Midwest. Yet Southern California has a very established bluegrass community made up of older stalwarts of the genre, as well as young musicians.
In fact, one group of young musicians, Next Generation, is completely local, and will be performing Sunday at the Temecula Bluegrass Festival. The band is made up of guitarist Zach Caplinger, 19, a graduate of Vista Murrieta High School; banjo player Orion Johanning, 17, a student at Temecula Valley High School; and mandolin player Sebastian Green, 16, of Carlsbad and a student at Pacific Ridge High School.
"There's a festival in Vista called Summergrass, and my dad (Jeff) was on the board for that and he found an opening for a demo band for a banjo, guitars and a mandolin," Johanning said. "So we got together and demoed the instruments, and while we up there we were accepted very well. That's how it started."
There had been some interactions previously.
"I knew Orion from the kids camp, but I hadn't met Zach," Green said.
"We were all kind of fooling around with the same stuff. I would hang out with Orion separately, but we didn't get together until then. People thought we were good musicians for our age and that we had a lot of energy."
Caplinger knew of his younger compadres.
"They had participated in the kids' program, but I hadn't," he said. "When we were approached by Summergrass to play in the demo band, they knew that I played guitar and we got together."
All of them grew up with bluegrass, an obvious background for Caplinger considering his father is Denis Caplinger of Bluegrass Etc., who will also be performing at the festival.
"I'd been interested in bluegrass at an early age," Zach Caplinger said. "I had started playing the guitar in fourth grade, mainly rhythm, but then I got more interested in playing lead and focusing on jazz, actually. I set my eyes on jazz, but bluegrass always comes first and foremost. I think it's exciting to bring jazz and bluegrass together."
For Green, he started out as many children do musically — with the piano.
"My mom put me in piano lessons when I was 5 or 6," Green said.
"It was OK, but there was a lot of bluegrass in the house, and I gravitated to it and started to play bass for a few years, then the mandolin."
Johanning discovered the banjo in a slightly different way.
"My dad had a banjo underneath his bed … he brought it out a few years back and started playing with it, and then I picked It up," he said.
"I kept that banjo and he went and got a brand new one. It just went from there, and I found some bluegrass things and started playing places."
Of particular note is that all of them are focused on not sounding like everyone else.
"The thing is, with bluegrass instruments, everyone tries to sound like Tony Rice, so then you are just playing his licks and there's no melody," Green said. "You have to make it your own."
Johanning likes the band's focus on both originals and ways to make the old standards their own.
"We have a few originals by the band and other ones that are kind of classics," Johanning said.
"We've created a few different intros. For example, on 'Salt Creek,' (Zach) Caplinger made his own little intro. We look for stuff that could make it original, but not things that would radically change the song."
This weekend, they will be at the Temecula Bluegrass Festival, a place they love.
"At the Temecula festival, there's a lot more access," Johanning said. "Anyone can walk in and we have the opportunity to be seen by promoters. We actually have started recording, and we've started to lay the groundwork."

Jet Li is a sweetie monster in Unleashed, and we're still fonda Fonda in Monster-in-Law.
Unleashed (Rogue Pictures) is a clever, expertly done variation on the old (but always potent), monster/mad-scientist fairy tale, with the scientist a cockney gangster and the monster a kung fu fighter. Danny (Jet Li) is a near-mute automaton with dead, sunken eyes. Shambling, head bowed, led around on a leash, he comes to life only when his master/creator/father, Bart (Bob Hoskins), aiming to collect a debt, removes Danny's steel collar and snarls, "Get 'em, Danny!" Then Danny is something to see.
The director, Louis Leterrier, was responsible for one of the most overpraised movies of recent years, The Transporter, in which the action was so absurdly sped up, chopped up, and jazzed up (in the manner of an unusually obnoxious music video) that it lost all connection with gravity. Leterrier's technique is better here, but what's really different is the whirligig in the center of the frame. No matter how fast Leterrier cuts, Jet Li seems to cut (and kick and punch) faster. Working with the great fight choreographer Yuen Wo Ping, Leterrier shapes the action around unbroken shots in which Li does things that no human body should be able to do at speeds that no human body should be able to travel. It's not just that his hands and feet are a blur. It's that you can't quite see how he gets from adversary to adversary: He seems to be taking quantum leaps through space.
His acting is wonderful, too. Did Li study the greatest monster, Karloff? The eyes in the middle of that homely, pockmarked face are first hooded, then beseeching. Bart keeps his good dog shut up in the cellar, and Luc Besson—who wrote the screenplay—was clearly thinking of King Kong when the bereft Danny stares up through a grate at one of Bart's prostitutes.
Unleashed is claptrap, but it would take a stronger man than I to resist it when the main characters are played by Li, Hoskins, and Morgan Freeman—as Sam, the kindly, blind (or is it blindly kind?) piano tuner who speaks to Danny like the hermit in Bride of Frankenstein and then brings him (wounded, bleeding) into his home. This didn't strike me as the wisest move, given the presence of his teenage stepdaughter, Victoria (Kerry Condon), in the house. But if Freeman's Sam is blind, he can see into a man's heart. Soon, Danny is getting all snuggly, shopping for fruits and vegetables, listening to Mozart… When it's time to fight again, he makes like Ferdinand the Bull and heads straight for the flowers. But kung fu assassins have a way of making it hard to say no.
The picture ends with a burst of pacifism, but there's one terrific fight before then: Jet Li and some really big bald guy in white robes going hand-to-hand in a tiny half-bathroom. Only people who can move so astonishingly through space could make such a witty spectacle out of the lack of it.
From the mailbag re: Monster-in-Law (below):
"Nice review, jerk. Yeah, way to puff up the insanely traitorous ego of Hanoi Jane. Next time, try licking her feet, she might be responsive. Then again, I heard she likes her Americans dead. Have some integrity next time, and let Hanoi Jane's movies go unreviewed, dick."—JM
Dear JM: Thanks for the note. But politics have no place in a movie review. At least that's what people like you are always telling me... 1:01 P.T.
We're used to films that are intellectual jigsaw puzzles—but emotional ones? They're a lot more upending. They not only keep us off base; they can make us question what we thought we understood about the characters' lives. Arnaud Desplechin's Kings and Queen (Wellspring) is an emotional jigsaw that will keep you engrossed for days, maybe years. It has two story lines—one grave and melancholy, one antic—that intersect about halfway through its two-and-a-half-hour running time. It's as if Woody Allen in Melinda and Melinda had ended by merging his comedy and his drama, and the marriage proved unexpectedly fruitful. (Come to think of it, that might have made Allen's overpraised dud more interesting.)
At the start, a woman called Nora (Emmanuelle Devos) talks to the camera. She tells a story about Zeus—the one in which he fell in love with Leda and took the form of a swan to make love to her. Why is she telling us this? A clue is that Nora buys a beautiful illustration of the myth as a gift for her beloved father, Louis (Maurice Garrel), a renowned author and published diarist, who's clearly uncomfortable with it. He's uncomfortable for another reason: His insides are ravaged by a cancer that will kill him in days.

- The opening away mission. Prime Directive be damned, the Nibirans are worshiping the Enterprise as a god, and the ship and her crew deserve it.
- Special mention to the earlier reveal that the Enterprise herself is hiding on the ocean floor.
- The Enterprise leaving the ocean is awe-inspiring in a subtle way, one often overlooked in ST: they're only using simple thrusters to power themselves out. While full specs of starships are uncommon, it's certainly a fact that they weigh at least several hundred-thousands of tons, if not more on the largest. In space this isn't too much of an issue once they pick up momentum, but the Enterprise is under the gravity of a planet, and dealing with the crushing pressures of an ocean. Yet their thrusters are fully sufficient to have them rise out of the ocean, looking all the world like a god to the Nibirans, and for good reason at the power needed to lift a starship under said conditions.
- Four words from John Harrison: My name is Khan. Cue audiences freaking out.
- John Harrison single-handedly taking down an entire platoon of Klingons and their armed transport ships with what looks like a sub-machine gun and a friggin' cannon that looks like it was ripped from a fighter.
- Later, him just shrugging off Kirk's attempts to beat him up.
- Kirk himself does well against the Klingons. He goes toe-to-toe with a bunch of them in hand to hand combat and survives, despite being physically weaker.
- Spock and Uhura also get to do some damage too. The former shows to be a damn good shoot while the latter knifes a Klingon in the groin.
- Uhura walks right up to a squad of Klingons, looks their leader right in the eye and appeals to the Klingon code of honor to ask for help finding Harrison. It doesn't work, but she gets a hell of a lot of points for trying.
Kirk: [as he and Spock watch Uhura approach the Klingons] Whatever it is, it isn't going to work.
Spock: It is the only logical solution. If you interrupt her now, you will not only incur the wrath of the Klingons, but that of Lieutenant Uhura as well.
- Spock would make an excellent lawyer.
Spock: Vulcans do not lie. [beat] The torpedoes are yours.
- To clarify: Spock does give Khan back the torpedoes, but without the cryotubes that Khan really wants. He had McCoy successfully remove all the cryotubes from the torpedos and keep them in the medbay. Spock then beams them over to the Vengeance and sets off the automatic timer. You can bet that he's "laughing at the 'superior' intellect."
- Spock vs. Khan.
- Spock hauls ass after Khan in a marathon sprint, easily overcoming every obstacle in his path - which includes a four-meter vertical leap and a thirty meter diagonal drop. Between speeding aircraft. The staccato beat of Spock's footfalls state his intentions quite clearly - "Khan, your scalp is mine, you're just too stubborn to save yourself the asskicking you have to know that I am about to give you by tearing it off yourself and handing it to me in advance."
- Even better, Spock wins the first phase of the fight by attacking Khan where he's most vulnerable: his mind.
- Also Khan shrugging off the Vulcan nerve pinch, painfully, but still successfully. Normal people just collapse into a boneless heap.
- And then Uhura beams in to save her boyfriend.
- It's two superhumans/advanced beings in an Interesting Situation Duel. And it's done well.
- Khan has spent half his time kicking the ever-loving hell out of every human he meets... and then he goes up against an extremely pissed-off Spock, and discovers Vulcans are a lot tougher than normal human beings.
- Kirk punched Khan repeatedly with literally no result, yet Spock breaks his arm, flips him a couple of times, punches the tar out of him, and even assaults Khan's mind. Hell, if Uhura hadn't intervened, Spock would have successfully killed him. Beware the Quiet Ones indeed.
- Hell, she managed to save both men from being beaten to death at each other's hands. Saving Khan as mentioned above, and saving Spock moments earlier, by distracting Khan by shooting several phaser blasts at him, all of which pretty much rolled off him like water balloons.
- Spock's Improvised Weapon in the fight, where he just tears a hunk of metal off of the vehicle they're on and knocks seven bells out of Khan with it.
- Spock breaking Khan's arm is also a nice little Call Back to an earlier taunt from Khan to Spock: "You cannot even break your orders, Mr. Spock. How can you expect to break bone?"
- Spock has extra credit for winning that fight, considering that going by the old Star Trek canon, an enhanced human like Khan is five times stronger than a normal human, whereas a Vulcanian is only three times stronger.
- Khan crushing Admiral Marcus' head.
John Harrison/ Khan: YOU SHOULD HAVE LET ME SLEEP.
- The entire Enemy Mine between Khan and Kirk is awesome in itself, particularly when they're shooting across space to enter Admiral Marcus' ship.
- The Enterprise has been badly pummeled; its warp drive is down, the auxiliary power is failing, it's got multiple hull breaches, and it's losing orbit and about to crash into a planet. It dips below the clouds... and then rises back above the clouds, its restored thrusters blasting at full power. It'll take more than gravity to take down the Enterprise!
- This incidentally happened because, with his ship falling out of the sky, Captain Kirk made the ultimate sacrifice, giving his life where in another universe, Spock did the same.
- Even if it exactly mirrored Spock's death from Wrath of Khan and even if it was only temporary, Kirk finally got a death worthy of him!
- Scotty saving the Enterprise by forcing the Vengeance to reboot, taking most of its systems offline in the process. Man's a miracle worker.
- Scotty refusing to bring the suspect torpedoes aboard ship. Bringing them aboard when he doesn't know what they are or what harm they might do would be complete dereliction of his duty as chief engineer; so he refuses to do it, and when he can't reason with Kirk, he resigns on the spot. Everyone is uneasy about the mission, but he's the only one who forces the issue, even though it costs him his ship and his career. For a character who is usually comic relief, it's an impressive principled stand against Just Following Orders.
- Kirk makes an offhand Badass Boast while escaping with Spock and Uhura from a pursuing ship.
Spock: This ship has no offensive capabilities.
Kirk: It's got us; give me all six fuel cells.
- Carol attempts to try to dissuade her father from killing everyone aboard the Enterprise. She fails as he beams her off the ship, but she did give it her all and slaps her father. She also manages to elbow one of her dad's mooks in the face.
Carol: I am ashamed to be your daughter.
- Acting Captain Hikaru Sulu, who is forced to take command with Kirk, Spock and Scotty off the ship. He's never sat in the big chair, and Bones is convinced that he can't bluff Harrison into surrendering. John Cho then channels George Takei's Captain Sulu and throws down the gauntlet, telling Harrison on an open channel exactly what he will do.
Sulu: Attention: John Harrison. This is Captain Hikaru Sulu of the USS Enterprise. A shuttle of highly trained officers is on its way to your location. If you do not surrender to them immediately, I will unleash the entire payload of advanced long-range torpedoes currently locked on to your location. You have two minutes to confirm your compliance. Refusal to do so will result in your obliteration. If you test me... you will fail.Bones: Mr Sulu, remind me never to piss you off.
- Kirk taking Harrison's ship down after he attacks Starfleet by tossing his weapon into the ship's turbine.
- As the Enterprise is falling and the gravity is off, Kirk and Scotty have to make their way to Engineering to reboot the ship. A falling piece of metal throws them off their path and as Scotty and Kirk barely hang on to the rail, Kirk's grip slips and Chekov appears just in time to pull them up from certain death.
- Villainous example. The first time the USS Vengeance shows up and how she proceeds to chase the Enterprise down in warp and deliver an utter No-Holds-Barred Beatdown.
- Spock saying William Shatner's famous line from Star Trek II. You know which one.
- Villainous example that happens afterwards. When Spock screams Khan's name, the camera then cuts to the Enterprise in the sky...and then we see the USS Vengeance, piloted by Khan all by himself, just almost brush past them as it continues to plummet down to San Francisco below. Even though it's stated that the Vengeance can be piloted by one person, it's outright mindblowing how Khan is able to do all this despite the Vengeance being heavily damaged by the torpedoes. Then there's the fact that, despite the Vengeance being outright totaled after it plows into the city, Khan is able to walk out without anything that looks like a scratch. It just goes to show how much of an unstoppable Bad Ass Khan is.
- Kirk confronting Harrison in the prison bay:
- We hear the origin of the show's famous Opening Narration. It turns out to be something Captain Pike said to Kirk.
- Harrison's Hannibal Lecture to both Kirk and Spock in the brig.
Harrison: I am better.
Kirk: At what?
Harrison: Everything.
- Anytime Harrison talks to anyone. He's just got this smooth way of talking that lets you know exactly where you stand in his eyes.
- Fast-Roping Klingons.
- When the Vengance has the Enterprise at gunpoint, Kirk attempts to bargain with Marcus, stating that the actions of his crew were at his orders, and offers to surrender on the condition that his crew be spared. It's at that exact second that Kirk fully knows the responsibility of sitting in the captain's chair.
- He still manages to sacrifice himself for the still-living crew, by climbing into the radioactive chamber. The awesome comes in when Scotty said that they wouldn't even be able to make the climb before the radiation killed them, but not only did Kirk make the climb, he still had the ability to keep going until the damn reactor was fixed. And still have enough gas in his proverbial engine to crawl all the way back to the door.
- And after all that he still manages to cling to life long enough to be put into stasis.
- Spock managing to convey "You're a dead man, Khan!" after Kirk is killed without EVER speaking a word until afterwards.
- Pike telling Kirk exactly what he's needed to be told since he drove that damn car off a cliff. He is arrogant, he doesn't know how to follow the rules, he does think the rules don't apply to him, and he is a pain in the ass. Kirk desperately needed some tough love punctuated with a verbal asskicking, and Pike was more than happy to supply both. Even better, when push came to shove, Kirk shut up, listened, and learned the lessons he needed to learn. A CMOA for Parental Substitutes if anything ever was.
- For some reason, the scene with Spock Prime stands out as awesome. "I'm not allowed to interfere by giving you knowledge of the future. It could corrupt the timeline." And then as they look like they're getting bummed out about that, Spock Prime then goes "That being said..." and goes on to tell them all about Khan. And it really says something that Spock considers Khan the most dangerous thing that the original NCC-1701 ever faced, considering all the mad gods, the planet-destroyers, mutants, entire empires, and worse that they faced. And all of this is with the knowledge that for Spock, it's been something like one hundred and fifty years since he faced Khan, and in another dimension, and still it left a psychological scar on him, one that says "Khan is involved. THINGS ARE DEADLY. SERIOUS."
- It's very subtle, but Spock's delivery when he says, "Vulcans cannot lie. The torpedoes are yours." His expression and tone perfectly match those he gave the Vulcan High Council in the first movie: it's basically a big old Vulcan "fuck you."
- This commentary of when Spock truly beat the shit out of Khan.
- Kirk confronting Admiral Marcus on the Vengeance. Admiral Marcus is the head of Starfleet - he's not just Kirk's boss, he's Kirk's bosses' bosses' boss. He gives a long speech about how war is coming, and tells Kirk that Kirk will have to kill him before he surrenders. Kirk's response: "I'm not gonna kill you, sir. But I could stun you and drag your ass out of that chair."
- The Crew.
- Visual Effects of Awesome:
- The Enterprise hiding in the alien ocean during the opening away mission - particularly when it leaves said ocean.
- A starship crashing into the Pacific Ocean in San Francisco.
- The Reveal of the USS Vengeance.

The sister of Columbus shooting victim Cary Owsley is asking that a final autopsy report on her brother remain temporarily sealed.
While the report was expected to be released this week, Cheryl Owsley Jackson is requesting assurances that her privately-hired forensic pathologist had the same evidence and information provided to a court-appointed pathologist before the report is made public, according to an emergency motion filed Thursday.
Jackson is asking Bartholomew Circuit Court Judge Stephen Heimann for "an itemization of all the documents, including the number of pages, provided to Drs. (Scott) Wagner and (Werner) Spitz to ensure that both pathologists had the benefit of the same information in forming the bases of their opinions."
Heimann is not expected to make a ruling on Jackson's motion until sometime next week, court officials said Friday.

"Zipcar's board failed to take all necessary steps to ensure that shareholders will receive the maximum value for their shares"
That's what lawyers said in a recent filing against the company that alleges the recent Avis acquisition of Zipcar shortchanges Zipcar shareholders.
I'm not an antitrust expert, so I have no idea if this filing has any teeth. Although in a recent Reuters poll, eight out of nine antitrust experts said they expect U.S. regulators to approve the deal.
Another complaint from some shareholders, as well as Zipcar customers is that Avis, in keeping with an outdated corporate approach that doesn't work with the type of folks who typically sign up for a service like Zipcar, could ruin the customer service and experience of the carsharing company.
I'd like to think the marketing folks over at Avis aren't stupid enough to screw with a formula that clearly works. But who knows? It wouldn't be the first time a behemoth corporation has fallen down such a rabbit hole. Remember Newscorp's tragic acquisition of Myspace? What a complete train wreck that was.
Of course, if Avis does go down the same path of incompetence, there are other carsharing startups out there that would be happy to fill the void. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

How about if I had a list underneath that said: Banned Members/Infracted Members - with a list of banned members/members with strikes below? That would allow us to use the auto-updating list and just keep a running list of the exceptions (that is, the members on the list who aren't members anymore).

I agree. I'll also remove the references to being a "good" member, as the landmark Supreme Court of the Shiny Hunters case #6063,
shido v. MetalMario
, prevents distinction between members. (Interestingly, it also correctly predicted shiny inflation and set the initial provisions for our future server. :cer_laugh
Haha, the original first post contained profanity directed at members who don't hunt that much - I'm definitely going to tone down the atmosphere and make it seem more welcoming and friendly.

Narendra Modi support: Mukesh Ambani threatened by Indian Mujahideen
Back To Main News
Police have launched a probe after a letter purportedly sent by terror outfit Indian Mujahideen was delivered to the office of Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani, threatening to harm him for supporting Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi and investing in the state, sources said today.
The letter, delivered by an unidentified person to Ambani's personal staff in a sealed envelope at his Maker Chambers office on February 24, also said IM would damage his 27-storey mansion 'Antilia' on Altamount Road, a police officer said on condition of anonymity.
The handwritten letter, claimed to have been penned by an IM operative, said the organisation wanted the release of its operative Danish and, if he was not set free, the home-grown terror group would cause harm to Ambani.
Police suspect the letter referred to Mohammed Danish Ansari, a native of Darbhanga in Bihar, who was arrested in January by NIA for sheltering Bhatkal brothers before they reportedly escaped to Pakistan three years back.
After receiving the letter, a senior officer of RIL met city Police Commissioner Satyapal Singh to apprise him of the development, the officer said.
Police would ask for CCTV footage from the security staff of Ambani's office to find out whether any images of the person, who had delivered the letter, were captured.
