An auto-ascent sequencer is a device that regulates the motion of a mag-lev carriage on an orbital tether.
In 2373, Neelix had to control the speed of a Nezu tether carriage manually, because the auto-ascent sequencers were offline. (VOY: "Rise")

Great brake lines and good quality. Installation seems a little harder than it should be.
Reviewed By Kevin M (Stockton, CA) Reviewed for a 2009 Nissan 370Z —3/10/2014 9:22 AM
Installed on 09 370Z. Replaces all of the hard & soft lines on the front brakes. Was a straightforward install, but could have included an instruction sheet to ID the clamps and their locations. Product looks and functions awesome! The pedal feel has improved and the lines look great next to the powdercoated calipers and drilled rotors!!! Installed on the rear as well. Highly recommended...

text: One week into ownership and I'll be performing my 620 mile service tomorrow. I stopped by a local Kymco dealer and did a parking lot comparison to a Kymco People GT 300i and a Downtown 300I. I now understand why the People comes with a topcase, because if it didn't there would be very little storage. The Downtown was a little better. Both paled in the comparison of fit & finish, as well as the feel of the switchgear and seat release mechanisms. However, I think I liked the seat on both Kymcos a bit better than the BV 350. I did not ride either of the Kymcos, but I am sure I made the right choice. The BV has been a lot of fun, has plenty of power, and there are only a couple of very minor things I can find to pick on, such as the fuel gauge reading empty with nearly a gallon left in the tank. But once I figured that out it's not a big deal to compensate for.

Now, she's off to find him again, with the assistance of the biggest, meanest bounty hunter money can hire -- but the biggest, meanest bounty hunter ''her'' money can hire is a small, blue-grey, hamster-like critter called Marion, who has enough attitude for several regular-sized bounty hunters but not a lot to back it up with. He does, however, have two special advantages: he has all kinds of useful stuff stashed in his cheek pouches (now, [[RummageFail if only he could find what he needed when he needed it]]...), and he goes into an UnstoppableRage whenever [[BerserkButton someone calls him "cute"]].Each episode is packed with {{homage}}s and {{shout out}}s to earlier works of animation, science fiction, and comedy (the episode where AppliedPhlebotinum creates seven Marions -- one happy, one bashful, one grumpy, and so on -- is ''classic'').----!!This series contains examples of:* AliensOfLondon* AllJustADream: In the season finale "School's Out" it turns out the whole series is just a comic Cassie is drawing in class... [[OrWasItADream or is it]]?* AppliedPhlebotinum* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: "You stand accused of breaking [[Franchise/StarTrek the Prime Directive]], 5000 speed limits, and a really nice vase!"* {{Autocannibalism}}: In one episode, Marion discovers his BagOfHolding cheeks are actually a portal between dimensions so, in order escape the dimension they're trapped in, he eats Cassie then himself.* BadassAdorable: Yes, Marion is played for laughs and he's a cute little hamster like creature. He's also capable of kicking some serious butt when he needs to.* BadlyBatteredBabysitter: "Bringing Up Baby"* BagOfHolding: Marion's cheeks.* BalloonBelly: Cassie gains one for a short time in "Chin Raiders" after eating lots of pancakes.* BarBrawl: "Bringing Up Baby"* BerserkButton: '''Never''' call Marion "cute".** This even includes any word that has "cute" in it (ie "acute")* BluffTheImpostor: In "Twin Cheeks" Cassie realises Alt!Marion isn't the real one when she calls him cute and he doesn't flip out.* {{Bouncer}}: "Fashion Victim"* BountyHunter* BrickJoke: Lampshaded in "The Good, the Bad, and the Adorable". A group of cute critters accidently take off on a huge rocket engine and fly around the entire planet returning just in time to run over the BigBad at the crucial moment, whereupon Marion pops up and says, "[[BreakingTheFourthWall Bet you forgot about those guys, huh?]]"* BunglingInventor: Professor Notgerman* CatchPhrase: "Don't... call... me... CUTE!"* CaptainErsatz: A silver [[Franchise/StarWars C-3PO]] sometimes shows up out of nowhere to [[NeverTellMeTheOdds point out their odds of surviving, with Marion beating him up in response]]. On at least one occasion Cassie wonders who he is.* ClipShow: "The Trial"* ConspicuousCG* CrowdSong: "The Good, the Bad, and the Adorable" is set on a planet of crowd-singing creatures.* CuckooNest: "School's Out"* CuteCrittersActChildlike: The critters in "The Good, the Bad, and the Adorable".* DisguisedInDrag: "Fashion Victim"* DontTryThisAtHome: In one episode featuring the Galaxy of a Million Suns, Marion escapes using an electric fan that he switches to "turbo". A message then pops up saying: "Never try to escape the Galaxy of a Million Suns with an electric fan, it is dangerous and [[TooDumbToLive stupid]]".* ElmuhFuddSyndwome: Cassie, occasionally.* EnergyWeapon* EvilLaugh: In "Lonely Planet" Cassie and Marion laugh evilly while shining flashlights in their faces.-->'''Cassie:''' I have no idea why we did that.* EvilTwin: Alt!Marion in "Twin Cheeks". Alt!Cassie looks evil, but she's more of a JerkAss.* EyepatchOfPower: Marion, one of several shout-outs to ''TrueGrit''** Alt!Cassie from "Twin Cheeks" also has one.* {{Fartillery}}: In "Somewhere That's Green" when they're eaten by a man-eating plant, Cassie gets Marion to pull her finger, causing her to fart and the plant to spit them out.-->'''Cassie:''' If we ever do find my dad, don't you dare tell him that I did that!** She tries it again later without Marion's help, but it doesn't work.--->'''Cassie:''' Why doesn't it work when you pull your own finger?* FreakyFridayFlip: "Trading Spaces" is an entire episode full of body-swaps. A criminal steals a body-swapping device and uses it to go joy riding in other people's bodies. Highlights of the episode are Cassie stuck in the body of a humanoid rhino, a body-swap conga line with over half a dozen body-swaps in a row and the criminal, Cassie and Marion all being stuck together in the same body, where they try to beat each other up. The insanity ends with the criminal's mind trapped inside of a cactus.* TheFuture* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: From "Somewhere that's Green":--> '''Marion:''' Let's go skinny dipping!** "Beached" has Cassie say "What the... [[LastSecondWordSwap fog]]?"** After Marion reveals that he is a man to the security guard attracted to him at the end of "Fashion Victim", he says [[AmbiguouslyGay he doesn't mind]]. Marion reacts appropriately.* GrandTheftMe: "Trading Spaces"* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Cassie always does the right thing and gets angry with Marion when he doesn't.** She was also able to ask the All-Seeing Chin a question that only answers those pure of heart, and it does.* HatesBeingTouched: Alt!Cassie.* HerrDoktor: Parodied with Professor Notgerman, who isn't.* {{Homage}}: Many, including one to ''Franchise/IndianaJones''.* IdiosyncraticWipes* IdiotHero: Marion* IntelligentGerbil* InterspeciesRomance: Marion once got married to a Space Whale, who broke it off and hooked up with a defrosted, eloquent saber-tooth cat, and he once gambled Cassie away while trying to flirt with an alien like a multi-eyed, four-legged bird-woman.* IWillFindYou: The OpeningNarration has Dad shouting "I'll come back for you!" as Casey drifts off in an EscapePod. A GilliganCut then has Cassie saying "But he didn't...so I went looking."* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Marion* LimitedWardrobe: It seems that there weren't any extra outfits in that escape pod.* LiteralSplitPersonality: Did we mention the episode where AppliedPhlebotinum creates seven Marions?* LostHimInACardGame* LotusEaterMachine: "Wish You Were Here"* MadScientistLaboratory* MeaningfulName: Marion is a homage to the character played in the 1969 film ''TrueGrit'' by JohnWayne, whose real name was Marion Michael Morrison.** Cassie is short for Cassiopeia, named after the constellation. Her surname is Harrison, after Creator/HarrisonFord.* MediumAwareness* MirrorUniverse: "Twin Cheeks"* MissingMom: Cassie's mother does not appear, even in Cassie's fantasy in "Wish You Were Here" where she's reunited with her father. According to WordOfGod, Cassie's mother is dead, and the LotusEaterMachine chose not to bring back someone Cassie knew was dead in order to maintain the illusion that it was real.* TheNapoleon: Marion.* NoNameGiven: Cassie and Marion are being pursued by another bounty hunter (a horse with a poncho and Creator/ClintEastwood mannerisms) who calls himself "The Horse With No Name". Cassie points out that if he's called "The Horse With No Name" then that ''is'' his name.* OpeningNarration* OpeningShoutOut: In "Twin Cheeks" when Alt!Cassie gives her backstory.* ParentalBonus* ParentsForADay: "Bringing Up Baby"* TheProfessor: Professor Notgerman* RaisedByWolves: In Marion's case, literally.* RecapByAudit: "The Trial"* RummageFail* ShoutOut: Tons, especially in "Lonely Planet".-->'''Cassie:''' [[LampshadeHanging Don't you just love gratuitous film references?]]* SmallUniverseAfterAll: See the quote at the top of the page.* SpaceIsAnOcean: Complete with {{Space Whale}}s, in some episodes.* SpaceIsNoisy* SpaceWestern: Several episodes.* TemporaryBulkChange: Cassie in "Fashion Victim".* ThisAintRocketSurgery: "Actually sir, it is!"* ThisBananaIsArmed: "Hah! You didn't think that banana was loaded!"* {{Tomboy}}: Cassie* TooDumbToLive: In "Somewhere That's Green", while Marion is trying to hang up a banner he accidentally steps on a button that ejects all their food supply. When Cassie asks him, he demonstrates by pushing the button again and ejects all their water supply.* TrainingThePeacefulVillagers: Parodied in "The Good, the Bad, and the Adorable".* {{Tsundere}}: Cassie is this towards Marion at times.* TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: "Mutiny on the Bounty Hamster"* UnstoppableRage* UpToEleven: During the Body Swap episode, when the villain (in Cassie's body) complains about Marion's ship going too slow, he takes out a marker and writes "12" on the speed controls. ''It actually works.''* UsedFuture* WigDressAccent* YoungerThanTheyLook: Cassie looks and sounds like she's in her late teens, but she's actually 13.----

In January I made a post about whether or not to reconcile with my husband. I just wanted you to know that we have decided to reconcile and that we are attending therapy 3x per week (1 couple session, 1 individual session each).
His son was born on February 9th, and we had our first weekend with him last weekend. We will apparently be having him on the weekends now. I admit to being slightly annoyed that she named him Dylan Samuel (OUR son is Vincent Samuel), but he's a sweet baby.

United signed the 20-year-old Uruguayan from Penarol on a five-year-contract this summer but he could move straight back to South America to continue his development with Argentine giants Boca interested.
"It could be a good solution," Varela admitted in an interview with Tutto Mercato Web.
"I would be able to play continuously for a year but I'd be always thinking about returning to United who are a club that believed in me."
If he stays in Manchester, Varela will provide competition for first-choice right-back Rafael, who enjoyed his best season for the club last term.
When Varela completed his move to Old Trafford in June he said: "I'm very pleased to be a part of this club, one of the best teams in the world.
"As everyone in the world knows, this is a huge club that has won everything and I really hope that continues.
"I'm very lucky there are quite a few Spanish-speakers here. It will certainly help me settle in."

Sunday, Chicago and Carolina meet up in the first NFL playoff game in history where the over-under is an imaginary number.

Thanks for a job well done
Published: Monday, July 9, 2012 at 9:55 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, July 9, 2012 at 9:55 p.m.
U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu was in Thibodaux Monday, and the news was all good.
Landrieu was taking a victory lap across coastal Louisiana to celebrate the passage and signing into law of the federal Restore Act.
The measure, which President Obama signed into law last week, will direct the lion's share of the fines paid by BP over the 2010 Gulf oil spill to the Gulf Coast states that were affected by the spill and its aftermath.
The bill was always an issue of fairness. The states most affected by the spill should get some compensation from the fines paid by the oil giant.
That, though, is no guarantee of success.
Plenty of measures have gone down in failure despite being fair for all parties.
This one, though, met with the ultimate success of becoming law.
"The Restore Act is a tremendous step forward in jumpstarting critical coastal restoration in Louisiana after the worst environmental accident in our nation's history," Landrieu said. "This tremendous victory would never have been possible without the broad support of environmental, wildlife and business groups in Louisiana and throughout the Gulf Coast."
Landrieu is right.
The vast majority of officials across the Gulf Coast — regardless of political affiliation — got behind the effort to pass what would be a great deal for the coast.
The BP fines, after all, could range from $5 billion to $20 billion, according to estimates. This state's share would equate to a significant stream of money dedicated to coastal restoration and flood protection for south Louisiana.
The money would allow Louisiana to take its first huge steps toward implementing its 50-year, $50 billion master coastal plan.
But none of the benefits of the Restore Act could be on the horizon without the remarkable support and bipartisan cooperation of all of Louisiana's Washington, D.C., delegation.
Sens. Landrieu and David Vitter sponsored the act, and the entire congressional delegation supported it.
In what is unfortunately a rare accomplishment, lawmakers reached across party lines to work for a larger good.
That is a testament to the importance of the legislation and the willingness of all the lawmakers to patiently work together.
Landrieu and all the rest deserve a hearty round of applause for their diligence in getting something done that will be felt by Louisianans now and for decades into the future.

Comments about Meinl Classics Medium Hi-Hat Cymbals:
The first cymbals I ever bought were a pair of 14" Meinl Classic Hi-hats when i was starting off as a beginner.They're good quality and I used them for a very long time even as my cymbals and kit changed they stayed there - I still have them now as auxillary hi-hats. There are barely any bad points, but one is that when you hit them open, they resonate for a VERY VERY long time! They are great hi hats though and I would recommend buying them. If you want to go with something that has more chick, you can go for the Soundwave style hats, where the bottom cymbal is rippled. And if you want to move on from these I reccommend the MB20 range, which has a more aggressive sound for music like rock.

West Rutland man accused of DUI 5November 13,2013West Rutland man
accused of DUI 5
BENNINGTON A West Rutland man, who told a judge he lives in his truck, is facing his fifth charge of driving under the influence of alcohol.
John F. Swan, 45, pleaded innocent in Bennington criminal court Tuesday to two felony counts related to driving under the influence of alcohol.
According to court records, Swan was previously convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol in May 1989, July 1991 and November 1994 in Vermont and in April 1987 in New York.
In an affidavit, Officer Robert Murawski, of the Bennington Police Department, said he was dispatched to a Route 7, near Exit 2, on Nov. 8 around 10:25 p.m., because of reports that someone was driving erratically. Police stopped Swan, who was driving a 1972 Chevrolet truck, on Route 7 after seeing him fail to stay in his lane of traffic, the affidavit said.
Swans blood-alcohol level was measured at 0.107 percent around 10:45 p.m., police said. The legal limit in Vermont is 0.08 percent.
Swan was released without bail but ordered not to drive unless he has a valid license.
Frederick Bragdon, who represented Swan, said he expected there was going to be some issue in the case whether it was Swan or Swans sister who was actually driving at the time.MORE IN This Just InLike the rest of you, Ive spent the past week immersed in the local conversation about welcoming...

Turner Broadcasting Selects Digital Rapids' Kayak Workflow Platform For Multi-Screen Media Operations
MARKHAM, Ontario, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Rapids announced today that Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. (TBS, Inc.) has chosen the Kayak™ dynamic workflow platform as the technology foundation to power Turner's media processing operations for its current and future multi-screen video initiatives. The two companies have expanded their relationship, collaborating on advanced workflows to bring Turner's extensive range of premium content to audiences across an expanding range of viewing platforms. As the technology platform powering the upcoming version 2.0 of the Digital Rapids Transcode Manager ® high-volume media processing software, Kayak integrates seamlessly with existing Transcode Manager deployments while adding unprecedented new levels of intelligent automation and new video processing functionality not available in any other solution on the market.Turner's initial use of Kayak and Transcode Manager 2.0, processing and transforming content for multi-platform distribution, showcases the capabilities of the Kayak platform. Incorporating tasks from multi-stage image processing and transcoding to packaging the media into the multiple formats required by varying viewing devices, the Kayak-based workflow addresses the challenges of processing a vast back-catalog of content with widely varying technical characteristics. Leveraging its robust metadata handling and continuous analysis of the media on a frame-by-frame and sample-by-sample basis, Kayak's intelligent, logic-driven automation adapts the workflows to the source content, minimizing manual effort while maximizing processing efficiency and eliminating unnecessary steps. Kayak's modular, component-based architecture and rich development environment also enable the easy integration of custom-developed functionality directly into the Kayak architecture. "We have developed our own custom Kayak components, enabling seamless integration with Turner's existing business systems," said Brooks Tobey, SVP Sales Solutions and Multi-Screen Development & Delivery at Turner, "and we are pleased to partner with Digital Rapids to further our digital encoding initiatives." "This platform allows us to efficiently process and deliver content from our news and entertainment services across a wide array of consumer platforms," said Keith Chandler, Vice President, Media and Multi-Platform Operations at Turner. "We're proud that Turner Broadcasting, a pioneer in the multi-screen delivery of premium content, has chosen Kayak as the foundation of their media operations," said Brick Eksten, President and CEO of Digital Rapids Corporation. "Kayak is the ideal platform to enable forward-thinking media organizations to execute on their ideas, while freeing them to focus on their core business rather than the technology that supports it. We're also thrilled to be building on our successful relationship with Turner with our new strategic partnership, through which both of our companies will benefit from our close collaboration."

Vaginal Bleeding at 5 weeks
I am now bleeding at 5 weeks. It started off as spotting (light pink, dark pink, light red) Now I'm bleeding. It is still not very heavy, but I wouldn't call it light. Is this okay?

i don't really know what to say cause i roo have been spotting here and there so idk.posted 02/03/2011 by Kelly Lazala
i too i'm starting to spot but it's been on and off i spotted yesterday and the day before what should i do?posted 02/03/2011 by Kelly Lazala
I was 6 weeks pregnant and was spotting lightly. Then all of sudden I was bleeding a bright red/brown blood. I called my OBGYN dr. and wanted to be seen the next day. It turns out I had a miscarriaged. I am upset but believe that everything happens for a reason and it was nothing I could have done to prevent this.posted 01/05/2011 by a BabyCenter Member
See your doctor. Sometimes bleeding is no big deal but in some cases it is a big deal. My advise is stay calm and call your doctor for an ultrasound. Good luck!posted 11/06/2010 by Lara35
@michellecpalma -- I m sorry to hear what happened. It happened to me too..and yeah its surprising that we get so attached in such a short period of time. I started singing songs :) just 2 weeks into the pregnancy..so yes it can hurt! Again....the only consolation is this pregnancy is not meant to be..and if this is forced it may not be a healthy baby...thats how i got thru this..and the other surprising thing is..u mightve had miscarriages before too..in the form of a period..and u wouldve never known.. So really ..this is not to worry about..u ll be fine..good luck :)posted 03/31/2010 by fabmom5
jadey_lady20 I'd also suggest you get one or two more blood tests done to be absolutely sure. Also you mentioned feb 3rd and 7th did you mean March?posted 03/07/2010 by fabmom5
don't worry! even if the HCG is low...as long as its doubling every 2-3days that's a positive sign! I hope things go well for you...:) Lemme know how the blood work went...posted 03/02/2010 by fabmom5
I'm 6 weeks pregnant . It was all ok ,and I've heard the baby's heart beats ,but today I had I a bleed , a fresh brownish blood , called my doctor and the answer was : take complete rest ...till next ultrasoundposted 10/13/2010 by SavetheQueen
jadey_lady20 Do you have cramps? If yes its not the greatest sign but it could still be normal. as they say its not uncommon but its not normal either. If you bleed for more than a few days go to your obgyn immediately and get blood work done for HCG levels - 2 or 3 tests to make sure all is well. Your levels should double and definitely not drop. Its quite possible that this might be totally a normal thing too so try not to worry/stress out (its easier said i know) but just stay positive.posted 03/02/2010 by fabmom5
well this is a relief. It looks like it is very common to have bleeding early on. I had a miscarriage in May and am bleeding now with this pregnancy...no pain though and the ultrasounds showed the sack and my HCG numbers were still ok. I too have been going in for bloodwork, but Sat the bleeding increased so I spent the whole morning in the ER. Still seems ok for now. It has been almost a full week of bleeding so yesterday my family doc checked me out and said everything looked and felt normal. They put me on progesterone to stop the bleeding. I pray that it works because we probably won't go down this road again.posted 10/12/2010 by wtexmom66

Skip to comments.Gingrich's $2.50 gas promise (After years of bashing Bush, MSM now claims nothing can be done)
Posted on 02/24/2012 4:13:10 AM PST by tobyhill
Gas prices are on the rise, and so like clockwork, a cadre of politicians are now selling the promise of lower prices at the pump.
Newt Gingrich, struggling to regain momentum in the Republican presidential primary, is leading the way, promising to get prices down to $2.50 per gallon.
"I've developed a program for American energy so no future president will ever bow to a Saudi king again and so every American can look forward to $2.50 a gallon gasoline," Gingrich said during his self-introduction at Wednesday's CNN debate.
The promise might garner attention on the campaign trail, but there's little more than snake oil in that rhetorical well.
(Excerpt) Read more at money.cnn.com ...
this MSM cannot even report on this admin using tax money to pay off it';s donors in this green energy scam , heck they can;t even report on this admin giving guns to the drugs lords which in turn kill hundreds which in turn kill our border agents.
There is no way on this earth this MSM will ever report on o ama closing down a pipeline which will create jobs , which in turn get out oil from a neighbor and which in turn will reduce prices
The enemy of this country , the first enemy is the MSM
As it says in the Bible: "for truth has stumbled in the public squares, and uprightness cannot enter."
I hate the LIBERAL MEDIA!
Once we get our nominee, hopefully some one will make an ad with MSM blaming Bush and then saying it's OK under ZERO.
We all hate them however they can be useful idiots. We can use their exact words and make them look like the fools they are.
More & More people are turning away from the MSM once they see how biased they really are. . . . .
If they don't think that anything can be done then the media needs to cast its eyes to the Bakken Formation and realize that the oil industry is just 'scratching the surface' there. If the US makes it a priority we could (within 10 or 15 years) be a net exporter of each of oil, coal and natural gas. Could you imagine the impact on Medicare and Social Security if we sold our energy to the rest of the world and used the profits from foreign sales to boost those two entitlements? It would take a major committment...but its possible...if we allow ourselves to try.
I listened to Newt's 1/2 hour long ad/address yesterday. I must say it was a good one, very, very good. I liked what he had to say especially his chain of events that would eventually lead up to us getting out of the Middle-east. I liked how it would reduce or eliminate the Saudi's and Iranian economic power in the United States and possibly elsewhere.
If he keeps up this theme and then does it as President. Well then, He's earned a supporter in me.
No mention of the price inflation caused by Fed money printing. The Gingrich plan works on that as well.
On the bright side, we have all of that '08 campaign footage of obama, Hillary, Pelosi and a bunch of other rats putting the gas crisis front and center. Splice those clips together and you have one powerful campaign ad.
You want to take the taxes and lease option profits from some of our most valuable natural resource pools and give them over to two of the least sustainable and unconstitutional entitlement programs? I would rather not imagine that. How about we use it to pay our debts? Or maybe reduce taxes?
Is Newt's plan the entire answer to reducing gas prices? ..no, but it is far more likely to reduce gas prices than some algae boondoggle. There is no to my knowledge nothing more than a lab experiment for turning algae to gasoline. To go from a lab experiment to being able to commercially make gas from algae in quantities to meet even part of our needs might take decades and likely consume billions of dollars of tax payer money without ever being successful. Look at the ethanol boondoggle that has consumed billions in subsidies and hasn't reduced our dependence on foreign oil one bit.
Well, except for during the Bush administration. Bush could have then...but he didn't...so it was his fault. Not now. No, there's nothing Obama can do.
This article effectively says that the laws of supply and demand don't work.

Only the corparate income taxes for sales/earnings of energy EXPORTS should be used to give a boost to Social security and Medicare. The corporate income taxes on on domestic sales should be taxed at a lower rate.
The truth of the matter is that Social Security and Medicare are very popular programs and not going to be cut. If we have to give them a boost then we should do so with taxes from sales to foreign countries. Let foreigners subsidize our entitlements.
You could open every wellhead in the world and push the price down for a year or two.
But afterward, you'll wish you hadn't when the price rockets.
One last binge.

THIS is precisely the problem. The Elite GOP knuckleheads REFUSE to fight this fight. They'd rather "get along with my friends across the isle". I am so sick of this I could scream. As you say, use their own words against them. Turn the Joe the Plumber moment into an ad. Turn the "enerygy prices necessarily will rise" into an ad. Turn ALL the photos of Zippy bowing to our enemies into an ad. Need I go on?
Seriously folks, when you are out in public, at a restaurant, in a store - have you EVER heard so many people talk about zippy in the manner of "this guy has got to go" ???? Mr. WWWF and I are happy to state we hear this everywhere we go. Even our lib friends are disgusted with this guy occupying our White House.
Ads from the elite GOP ??? I won't hold my breath. The NEW Tea Party candidates MUST do this.
It was a jaw-dropping moment on Bret Baier's Roundtable discussion, last night, when the guy from the Washington Post said "he couldn't remember the coverage in 2008" about high gas prices when GWB was president.
It showed how far the libs will go to protect the Prez.
" Could you imagine the impact on Medicare and Social Security if we sold our energy to the rest of the world and used the profits from foreign sales to boost those two entitlements?"
What entitles the government to "use the profits" from profits realized by private companies?
With all due respect to Newt this is bigger than a supply & demand problem — at least as far as petroleum and gasoline go. Most of the increase in pump price for gasoline is due to inflation. All commodities are up. If you track the price of gasoline to the price of gold or silver the price for gas has actually dropped.
Now some of this is due to speculation in gold & silver, but it points to the unrestrained spending & borrowing by the federal government as being the crux of the problem. It took Ronald Reagan and Paul Volcker (Fed Chairman at the time) almost 3 years of tight credit policies to kill inflation the last time it got out of control.
Fortunately for Reagan the economy turned in time for his re-election. Until that time his popularity had drifted downward and his re-election numbers looked poor. This is the kind of thing that the next president will be dealing with. There's no more road to "kick the can" down.
All we need is a president who opens up drilling across the board and the price will fall before the first drop is on the market.
People said the same thing about slavery, so the Republican party was formed to fight it. Maybe we need to form yet another party to fight the modern form of slavery.
One last binge of what?
Tobyhill is obviously one of the "Peak Oil" advocates and ignores all the new discoveries and new methods of drilling that have become available lately. He is saying that if we increase production shortly we would run out of oil and then prices would sky rocket. This attitude totally ignores the facts and relies on the old "The Sky is Falling" theory.
Most likely tobyhill is a greenie and simply thinks he is a conservative or else he is a troll. I think the former, that he is in reality a liberal who actually believes he is a conservative.

This is pyrepl 0.8.1, a readline-a-like in Python.
It requires python 2.2 (or newer) with the curses and termios modules built and features:
- sane multi-line editing
- history, with incremental search
- completion, including displaying of available options
- a fairly large subset of the readline emacs-mode keybindings (adding more is mostly just a matter of typing)
- a liberal, Python-style, license
- a new python top-level
- no global variables, so you can run two or more independent readers without having their histories interfering.
- no hogging of control -- it should be easy to integrate pyrepl into YOUR application's event loop.
- generally speaking, a much more interactive experience than readline (it's a bit like a cross between readline and emacs's mini-buffer)
- unicode support (given terminal support)
There are probably still a few little bugs & misfeatures, but _I_ like it, and use it as my python top-level most of the time.
To get a feel for it, just execute:
$ python pythoni
(One point that may confuse: because the arrow keys are used to move up and down in the command currently being edited, you need to use ^P and ^N to move through the history)
If you like what you see, you can install it with the familiar
$ python setup.py install
which will also install the above "pythoni" script.
Please direct comments to email@example.com.
(If you've released open source software you'll know how frustrating it is to see a couple of hundred downloads and only get a handful of emails, so don't think I'll be irritated by the banality of your comments!)
- Summary of 0.8.1:
Fixes - in the area of unbound keys and unknown commands - in quoted-insert - in unicode support
make Reader and subclasses new-style classes - make the inheritance hierachy look like this
- HistoricalReader CompletingReader
Turns out I've been wanting new-style classes since before they existed!
- needed to slightly change the way keymaps are built
- Summary of 0.8.0:
A whole bundle of things. - unicode support (although working out what encoding the terminal
is using can be "tricky")
- internal rearchitecting
- probably a bunch of new bugs...
Development and web-presence moved to codespeak.net
- Summary of new stuff in 0.7.1:
- A non-broken setup.py...
- Summary of new stuff in 0.7.0:
Moved to a package architecture.
Wrote a (very simple!) distutils setup.py script.
Changed the keyspec format to be more sensible. See the docstring in pyrepl/keymap.py for more information.
Portability fixes.
Various tortuous changes to use 2.2 features where possible but retaining 2.1 support (I hope; haven't got a 2.1 here to test with).
Jumping up and down on control-C now shouldn't dump you out of pyrepl (via a large hammer kind of approach).
Bug fixes, particularly in the history handling stuff.
reader.Reader has a new method, bind(), intended to be used by the user.
Changes to the init file handling.
Sundry code reorganization. Libraries built on top of pyrepl will probably require small modifications (but I'm not sure anyone has written any of these yet!).

Frostee Rucker relocates to the desert after signing with Cards
Deemed a poor fit by his former team, which plays its late-season games in frigid conditions on the edges of Lake Erie, Frostee Rucker is relocating to a more arid region.
Rucker, an eight-year veteran, has agreed to terms on a one-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals, the team confirmed Thursday. Last month, the Browns released Rucker after the hiring of defensive coordinator Ray Horton. Cleveland made the move when its new staff determined that Rucker did not fit within its multiple-front defensive system.
Originally a third-round pick of the Bengals in the 2006 NFL Draft, Rucker's best season arguably came in 2011, his final year in Cincinnati. Rucker had 44 tackles and 4.0 sacks, posting the highest stops-per-snap percentage of any defensive end in the league. In 2012, Rucker's only season with the Browns, he put up similar numbers finishing with a career-high 48 tackles and 4.0 sacks.
The Cardinals have two menacing defensive ends in the starting lineup in veterans Darnell Dockett and Calais Campbell but entered the offseason needing to add depth to their front seven. Arizona bolstered its line last week with the signing of former Raiders defensive lineman Matt Shaughnessy to a one-year deal. The signing also likely signals the departure of veteran linemen Vonnie Holliday and Nick Eason, both of whom are free agents.
In 2012, Arizona ranked fifth in sacks per pass attempt and fifth in defending the pass, as Campbell ranked second on the team with 6.5 sacks. New defensive coordinator Todd Bowles, though, could look to spell his starting defensive linemen at times. Dockett and Campbell ranked among the top 15 in snaps among 3-4 defensive ends last season, according to Pro Football Focus.

GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost review -
Final words and conclusion
Final words and conclusion
If Nvidia prices this product competitive enough then really, the product might be a little gem in terms of performance for money. Now, this product was released basically as allergic reaction against AMD's Radeon HD 7790 released last week hence we do not know what the volume availbility will be like. Make no mistake though, the GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost edition graphics card is a great little card that offers plenty of muscle to play today's games with good quality settings and Full HD monitor resolutions. Where the rest of the 650 Cards are marginal and lack just a that little extra bite in performance, this Boost edition simple delivers what is needed.
Realistically the GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost edition graphics card is a good chunk faster compared to the R7790. Where the AMD card with your standard image quality settings is in the 30~35 FPS range at Full HD resolutions, this GTX 660 Ti Boost is continuesly in the 40 FPS range at 1920x1080/1200. And really it's precisely where you need to be. The frame-rates are based on modern game titles with good image quality settings. So Yeah Nvidia did really well. To be fair, this card is not a GeForce GTX 650 ... it's a GTX 660 with a few shader processors disabled. As such you see this product continuously being only a few frames per second lower than that GeForce GTX 660. But who cares right ? For less money you get nearly the same performance -- that's a win.
That makes the GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost the all new affordable 169 EUR entry-level to mainstream gaming card. Based upon Kepler architecture this product will get you all the benefits and features this architecture has to offer. Even getting 3 or 4 monitors connected is an option. For the GTX 650 series new is a SLi connector.
Looking at the reference product that NVIDIA send us we can only conclude one thing, that's 100% similar looking to the GeForce GTX 660. And yeah, it really is that very same product with a minor GPU alteration. You can't complain at the looks though, the 650 Ti Boost / GTX 660 is a mean looking card all dark black and stylish. I mean .. look at that.
Noise levels
Directly related to the aesthetics is the cooling and thus the noise levels. The GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost edition graphics card have one fan. It's low RPM so it's not noisy airflow wise, however it makes a slight humming noise while spinning. That boosts sounds pressure and effects the measured ratings. Realistically the card is silent, but you can hear it. Should something like that bother you then be sure to check out some 3rd party cards from NVIDIA's board partners as they are mostly bound to have a customized cooler.
Power consumption
The GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost edition is rated at a 140 Watt TDP. That is on the high side for a 650 series card really but this again is due to the nature of the GTX 660 DNA this card uses. Our measurements show that 135 Watt at peak with a modern game is more in line with what you'll see, our model was a factory reference version so expect slightly higher numbers with Factory Faster clocked products. Take that 135 Watt and add to that the processor, memory, motherboard and other peripheral devices, our recommendation stands at a 500 Watt power supply, with a decent overclock that should be sufficient.
Overclocking then, we again notice nice results. The board power design is 140 Watt, you may increase the power limit with another 10% which means 150~155 Watt of power consumption is at your disposal when overclocking. Basically we added 150 MHz on the clock offset, Added 300 MHz on the memory slider and that resulted the games to run 1228 MHz on the GPU core with the memory running at 6610 MHz. Remember that GPU clock can differ a little with the dynamic clocks in relation to the power signature of the application running. But yeah, if you need a little more bite, don't be afraid to overclock these cards. A 10% gain could be easily achieved allowing you to pass the 1200 MHz region based on a dynamic boost clock.
As always prices remain debatable. A small overview of the lowest prices I could find:
- GeForce GTX 650 135 EUR
- GeForce GTX 650 Ti 145 EUR
- GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost 2GB 169 EUR, 1GB 149 EUR
- GeForce GTX 660 190 EUR
- GeForce GTX 660 Ti 250 EUR
These are of course the prices for the reference clocked models. Expect the factory overclocked, or should I say faster clocked, products to be 10 to 20 bucks more expensive. And those I find to be mid-range prices. Realistically if prices come down to 160 EUR then the GTX 650 Ti Boost edition is a little gem to purchase. For that money you will receive a nice 2GB graphics card that can play all the latest games at good image quality settings with very acceptable framerates at a resolution of 1920x1080/1200. So is it good value ? Yes, it is a versatile and progressive card when it comes to features and options.
Final words
Once there is volume availability and prices will settle in the say 150 ~ 160 EUR region for the 2GB models then as far as I am concerned the GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost edition graphics card is the card to get when it comes to mid-range performance versus price. I mean really, each and everyone of you guys by now will have upgraded towards a monitor with a resolution of 1920x1080/1200, and that's where this card will be a perfect fit as it balances out game quality and performance really well. If you need that wee bit extra then tweaking wise the product will not disappoint either, 1150~1200 MHz should not be an issue as well as with 6.4 Gbps on the memory, and that will drive performance upwards another notch.
Overall though this is the stuff that will put a smile on your face, very much recommended and embraced.

"Wabush - Labrador City - Churchill Falls" Wabush by jamiesno
Wabush Travel Guide: 39 reviews and 90 photos
Western Labrador is an area of big business! The twin mining towns of Wabush and Labrador City are homes and products of two very big mining companies. Wabush Mines in Wabush and the Iron Ore Company of Canada in Labrador.
Churchill Falls down the road 239 kms was once the largest hydroelectric project in the world and today remains the world's largest underground power plant lighting up the eastern USA seaboard.
I have traveled to Wabush / Labrador City many times for work and many more times to Churchill Falls to visit my inlaws over the years so I know both regions fairly indepth.
Due to the VT database, Labrador City and Churchill Falls don't have seperate pages. For the purposes of navigating my site, Wabush and Labrador City are the same both towns are side by side. All of my Churchill Falls tips are in sequential order under "Off the Beaten Track".
Labrador West is one of the great industrial regions of the Newfoundland and Labrador province. From iron ore to hydro development in Churchill Falls many people don't realize what is happening there.
I always enjoy my visits. The people are great and its one of the premiere spots in Newfoundland and Labrador to hold a conference.
Be warned as well in January it can reach temperatures such as -50. That is cold!!!

We loved your photos and descriptions of the Churchill Falls power plant and the iron mine tour. The pre-plant falls looked beautiful - too bad they can't let a little more water keep flowing over them.
That was nice picture of Wabush area.. We were kidding when we were youngers about the place's name but at least.. I found very interesting all those informations avalaibles there! Continue the good work and be please of the work done
Great page Jamie,stunning pictures and they even named an Inn after me.lol.
This is a really geat page Jamie!! Thanks for the virtual tour of Churchill Falls, the best information on it that I have ever seen! Maybe the next time I'm in Wabush I will hop in a car for the drive!!
A very interesting page Jamie. Of course the "Former Glory" Falls are so much nicer, but technology..... How is little Jonah ?

Well, I like the way you spin the plot. Unlike some plots, your characters aren't the Powerpuff girls. Running into a new completely independent bad guy/girl every comic or so. Instead, they often run into bad guys related, and any switch in organizations is explained cleanly. Well, almost cleanly. Any chance of some more of SS' leader in a comic?
And this time it seems like you are gonna hit the 100+ mark.
Sibling is just for this storyline (Think anime episode style!). The leader of SS... I don't know if I want to reveal him - I like meeting the Ex-O's first. 100 is my next goal (That means 200 overall!).

Astigmatism IOL Implants (Toric)
Toric lens implants are designed to correct astigmatism in cataract patients. Astigmatism causes blurred or impaired vision if the astigmatism is moderate or severe. The blurred vision is the result of the eye's cornea having an irregular shape. A normal eye's cornea and lens have a circular shape, while an eye with an astigmatism has a longer oval shape.
For cataract patients with pre-existing astigmatism, a Toric IOL implant could eliminate the need for prescription glasses after surgery, because a Toric IOL has the ability to correct both the cataracts and the astigmatism.
Now with the advancement of the Lensx Laser, smaller amounts of astigmatism that cannot be corrected with the Toric lens implant can now be corrected with exquisite precision leaving patients with enhanced distance vision.
What would it be like to see at a distance without relying on eyeglasses or contact lenses? Mississippi Vision patients who have astigmatism and are candidates for cataract surgery have the option to have their astigmatism corrected with either a Toric lens implant or the LenSx® laser to help improve distance vision. Dr. William Aden, Dr. Brannon Aden, and Dr. Christopher C. Evans will discuss the options that are best for you.
Vision with cataracts
and astigmatism
- clouded
- blurred
Vision provided by a
traditional replacement
lens implanted after
cataract removal
- may be blurred or distorted
if astigmatism is not also corrected
- may require corrective lenses or additional surgery
With AcrySof® Toric IOL, you
- leave your glasses and contact lenses behind
- recapture quality distance vision in only one step
An Ophthalmologist is a medical doctor who is trained in traditional medical school and then in a residency focused on diseases of the eye and all types of surgical procedures for the eyes and eyelids. Ophthalmologists have the ability to provide total eye care. Optometrists are trained through specialized schools in the diagnosis and treatment of all types of vision and refractive problems of the eye, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism, and are also trained to fit glasses and contact lenses and to prescribe aids for low vision, such as glasses and contact lenses.

I had the distinct honor collaborating with an incredible dream team to design and create a fresh new approach to winter wedding style– and I get to share it today! Here in the Finger Lakes Region of New York State, among its lakes and its rolling hills, we have a lovely luxury of dreamy winters. Whether you have a love or hate relationship with them, you cannot deny its beauty. Tucked among the snowy hills is the Springside Inn, covered in country charm (yet still embraces a modern sensibility), boasts a darling backdrop to our glamorous fashion and beauty. Together we paired this lavish look with the country charm of lush florals by Fleur de Lis Florist, bold checked & elegant linens by La Tavola Fine Linens and simply styled & welcoming paper design by Annie Taylor Design. Inspiring beauty design by Syracuse Makeup Artistry and Christy Robinson Hair Studio were effortlessly matched by the gorgeous gowns & accessories by Mirror, Mirror Inc. Bridal (hands-down our heroes for the day– but that's another story!). We had way too much fun with two dresses and three different looks– we even gave our wedding table an evening glow as the day slowly faded into dusk. Taken by Sarah's photography's unparalleled vision for romantic images, captured each moment and element with glowing light-infused delight. And take-the-cake details to finish the look came from The Patisserie, Maggie's Jewelry Box, Giovanni's Tuxedos and Follow Your Arrow Fabric Art, a unique guest book. What happens when all these seemingly unrelated ideas swirl together? A whole lotta lovely.
Sparkling, simple, lavish, whimsical– how can they be in the same sentence? I just goes to show that you can dream your wedding into a tapestry of things that inspire you– as long as you have an inspired & talented team! Congrats to our real couple Meghan & Andrew on their engagement and wedding planning journey– thanks for stepping outside your comfort zones and bearing with the subzero temps! Thanks to all who collaborated and to Sarah for pursuing her craft in such fine form. This is the conclusion of winter over here on The Post, a dreamy send-off I would say!

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Even last-place teams are having their way with the Philadelphia Phillies.
Julio Lugo homered twice, Damon Hollins had his first four-hit game and drove in three runs and the Tampa Bay Devil Rays beat the struggling Phillies 10-4 on Friday night.
James Shields pitched six solid innings and Carl Crawford also
had four hits for the Devil Rays, who have the second-worst record in the American League.
"We did a little bit of everything, timely hitting and pitching," Devil Rays manager Joe Maddon said.
Shields (3-0) allowed three runs and six hits, striking out six in his fourth major-league start. Hollins, who entered in a 1-for-20 slump, fell a triple short of the cycle.
Rookie Cole Hamels (1-2) lasted just 3 2/3 innings for Philadelphia, which has lost five straight and seven of eight. The Phillies (33-34) fell under .500 for the first time since they were 13-14 on May 3.
A week that began with a showdown against the first-place New York Mets has turned into a nightmare for Philadelphia. The Mets swept the Phillies to take a commanding 9½-game lead in the NL East, dropping Philadelphia closer to last-place Florida in the
division standings.
"It's a concern to see where we're at and where we've gone in the last week," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said.
Tampa Bay came in with the lowest batting average (.240) in the majors but had 13 hits, including seven for extra bases.
Lugo hit a leadoff homer to give the Devil Rays a 1-0 lead. He made it 3-0 in the third inning with a two-run shot to left field after Shields singled to right-center in his first career at-bat.
"I love it here. The ball travels well, but you still have to hit it," Lugo said.
Crawford followed Lugo's drive with a double, moved to third on a grounder and scored on Jorge Cantu's groundout to first baseman Ryan Howard, who wanted to throw home but dropped the ball and settled for the out at first.
Former Phillies infielder Tomas Perez put the Devils Rays ahead 5-0 with a sacrifice fly in the fourth inning. Crawford then chased
Hamels with an RBI single that made it 6-0 after a throwing error on shortstop Jimmy Rollins kept the inning going.
Hamels allowed six runs -- five earned -- and seven hits. A former first-round pick who was promoted after dominating batters in seven minor-league starts this season, Hamels has struggled recently. He has given up nine earned runs in his last two starts -- both losses.
"I know I'm young and I'm going to go through tough times, but I don't want it to last too long," Hamels said.
Hollins hit his ninth homer off Aaron Fultz in the fifth for a 7-0 lead, but the Phillies cut into the deficit with three runs in the bottom half of the inning.
Chris Coste drove in the first run with an RBI single, snapping Shields' scoreless innings streak at 17. It was the first major-league hit and RBI for Coste, a 33-year-old rookie. Coste was 0-for-13 before he lined a single up the middle.
Rollins added a two-run double to get the Phillies within 7-3.
The Devil Rays used an unusual shift on Howard when the slugger batted in the second inning. Third baseman Perez moved to left field, giving Tampa Bay four outfielders. Second baseman Cantu played shallow right field and shortstop Lugo played near second base. It didn't matter because Howard struck out. The Rays have used the same defensive alignment against Boston's David Ortiz.
Howard beat the shift with a sixth-inning single. He had an RBI single off reliever Tim Corcoran in the eighth against a less-drastic shift.
Game notes
Phillies left-hander Randy Wolf's next rehab start could be Tuesday or Wednesday. The former All-Star, sidelined since having elbow surgery last July 1, left his second rehab outing this week after being hit on the pitching hand with a line drive. ... Phillies right fielder Bobby Abreu went 0-for-3, ending his 14-game hitting streak. ... Lugo has three career multi-homer games. ... Shields was 2-for-3. He and Phillies center fielder Aaron Rowand are first cousins. Rowand was 1-for-3 against Shields.

I had a marvelous interview with filmmaker David Russo in preparation for the profile I penned for the Weekly earlier this week (read the feature here). Only a fraction of that interview, conducted over an easy hour-long brunch, made it into the article. Here are a few clips from the interview.On getting Little Dizzle made:
It lurched into production without anyone seeing where it came from, really, because it was just a last ditch effort that we went to L.A. and held auditions. Well, we don't have any money, we're just going to go down there and make believe that we have money, so I got a hold of my commercial agent, got a beautiful office to hold these wonderful auditions, I saw hundreds and hundreds of actors, worked with each and every one of them. It was an opportunity for me to show to potential investors that I can relate to actors just fine. And after that, the thing just lurched. We had to shoot only three weeks after it was greenlit, because of the availability of certain actors, and it got greenlit out of nowhere. I wanted to shoot this in the winter or the autumn, I didn't want to shoot in the middle of summer - a night movie, are you kidding, where we're having to shoot graveyard during the solstice? It was a nightmare. I didn't want to, I didn't want to, I didn't want to, and then just, bang. If I had it to do over again, I would have had six weeks of preparation and not just three because it was chaos. I am amazed that we pulled it together. Think of all the locations that are in there. All the casting had to be done in that three weeks. We never did raise all the money, but who does?
On the visions of Little Dizzle:
The movie is a great excuse for me to create little moments of what I hope are appreciation of this non-story. I came up with a plot that involved visions because that's a part of human life and we don't recognize it enough in movies. That fish sequence [animated by Russo in the style of his recent short films] might not have a whole to do with the story other than he's having a vision, but it's my chance to do my homage to bar art. I love bar art and I love having two beers, three beers, and all of a sudden some piece of junk that's up there at the bar transports me so much more effectively than any museum experience I've ever had. Why don't movies indulge in the visions people have all the time? So it seems like a diversion to say that, 'All right, we're all going to go to a fish place now because Dory's having a vision,' and believe me, I work on it. In Dolby Digital Surround sound, with that beautiful woman's voice singing that starts to slowly surround you in all the speakers creating an acoustic chorus effect that will envelope you. You really go somewhere during that fish sequence if you're in the right environment. That's a great excuse to make a feature, just that moment. So I equipped my script to contain little areas where we could take a break. We could let it go off the rails.
On the sound of Little Dizzle:
I just love sound. It's half of the movie for me. If there's one masterpiece part of "Dizzle" that I'm so satisfied with, it's the sound. I love it. I made mistakes everywhere else, but with the sound I think we did about as good as we could do it.
On the character OC:
OC and Dory represent two parts of myself. I didn't know where to begin so, like a good beginner, you start with yourself. I'm going to write a movie that's basically dividing up sections of me. OC is the artist that I've always wanted to be, the one that really believed in what he was saying, maybe not that talented but it didn't really matter. He believes it and is not a depressed guy. OC is the manic side of myself. I sit around for months waiting for twenty minutes where I can feel like OC and come up with kernels of ideas that I can spend years pursuing. That's who OC is. He's the optimist, a generative artist that people like being around, almost like a bonfire. You just like warming your hands near him. I've always had a great admiration for artists like that and it usually it has nothing to do with their work. There was a lot of creativity going on in my formative years in the late eighties and early nineties in the Seattle music scene and for every musician that people have heard of there's three hundred that people haven't heard of. OC is an amalgamation of a couple of people I know.... I was a janitor for eleven years and I was trained by an OC.
On Dory and religion:
I like the feeling of religions just washing over us until he gives birth, and then something happens that makes him just slightly more whole, whole enough that he can help a friend of his pray and really mean it. That's my biggest achievement, I think, in Dizzle, was the prayer. That it didn't come off as a burn. I've watched audiences cry during that scene. They go with it. And it takes a whole movie to get an audience to break down their defenses. All that toilet humor, all that comedy, all that what seems like meaningless character development, it's realty important because audiences have a defense against religious movies. I want to get past that, because religion, fortunately or unfortunately, is a part of our future, it's a part of our culture, and it will only become more so. So I created Dory to be that kind of guy who would wander in and go, 'Oh, wow.' And then just as easily go into a Mosque and, with just as open a heart, get his ass in the air and his nose on the ground and pray to Allah. Or walk into a Buddhist temple and go, 'Okay, now I'm going to pray.' I think it's a great form of tourism: it's carbon friendly, I don't think enough people do it. If you want a new experience, instead of going to Rome or to Hawaii or the Bahamas, walk into a Mosque and say, 'I want to understand more about this religion.' Come with some respect and you will go places and it will benefit you in ways you would never imagine.
Final thoughts:
Everything in Dizzle, for better and for worse, has a foundation in a real thought. It is a movie of real intention. There are no accidents. There are mistakes but in terms of its design - the characters, the effects, the allegory that's going on, the subject matter, the religious part - it's all a part of a design to create something for people's memories, something to chew on. I enjoy chewing on movies. I do not like to be spoon fed what I'm supposed to think and so I just try to give an intelligent viewer something to think about if they care to. If you want to show up for toilet humor, you still might not go away unhappy. If you're a frat boy who just shows up wanting blue poop humor, hey, we serve it up in the third act.
What I'm hoping I've done at the very least is given a movie for intelligent people who find the film a chance to maybe revisit it at one point. Because I think just on one viewing it is a little overwhelming and your thoughts will be nebulous because you do have to figure out what this means. Not just what I'm trying to get you to understand, but you have to figure out what these things mean. I give you a lot.
