Stay away from my window
Stay away from my front door
I don't need no company
I live in the darkness
With my misery
And it all belongs to me
I was wrong such a fool
The dreams I have taken
Blame it all on me
How long
Will I be unforgiven?
How long will it be?
How long
'Til a heart becomes unbroken?
It's all that matters to me
How long will it be?
If there's a light in this darkness
Let it shine on me
'Cause this guilt is all I see
In the flash of a moment
My whole world has changed
So many broken dreams
Now I search, in my soul
To find my salvation
Oh, forgive me
Each day goes by
Like a cold and gray December
I close my eyes
The guilt is all I see
For all my life
I will remember
Oh, God forgive me

On this page the Nikon 35mm f/1.4G is compared to the older-design Nikon 35mm f/2D (rented from LensRentals.com). One wonders just how good a lens could result if Nikon spared no effort on a new f/2 design, for similar cost? Most users do not need f/1.4 after all.
It's critical on a target like this to evaluate performance across the frame before reaching a conclusions, not just in one or two particular areas.
Neither lens shows left/right symmetry.
The 35/1.4G is without a doubt an exceptionally high performance design, but the assembly of my copy was apparently was less than perfect. Whether symmetry matters to most users is an open issue; this is a planar target, one that is a severe challenge to any lens. Still, I deem the left edge results too blurred compared to the right edge. Some of this interacts with field curvature, but it is "off" nonetheless.

Monday Night Raw in Dallas
In October, WWE is doing an episode of Monday Night Raw in Dallas. They are hoping to receive a huge spike in the ratings by bringing in some very big name players. Undertaker, Steve Austin, Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels have all been signed for the show. An official announcement has been made by the company that all four of them will be involved in some sort of segment throughout the night.
September 23, 2015
Steve Austin major announcements
During an interview with Sports Illustrated, Steve Austin teased that he had a couple of major announcements to make before the end of the month. He stated that they were so big that a large press conference will be required. Austin also stated that these deals were so big that he was forbidden from even mentioning any details about them. There are speculations that he could be joining GFW or TNA, but take that with a grain of salt for now.
May 7, 2015
Steve Austin contact
As wrestling fans have been pondering his involvement with the show since the announcement of a new season of Tough Enough, reports have now surfaced that WWE has yet to even contact Steve Austin to be a part of the program. It is being said that management is leaning towards using Bill DeMott and the other trainers as the host of the show. There are speculations that the move by the company is being done for financial reasons.

I've been working as a freelance journalist for 15 years, writing
both news and features for a range of publications. I have developed
several broad specialisms, including education, parenting, business
and health. A good deal of my writing has been on the use of
technology in different contexts: currently I'm writing a lot
about the use of imaging informatics in healthcare, but I've
also extensively covered the increasing use of technology in
education and the impact of technology on businesses, both large
and small.
Over the years, I've observed and written about numerous trends
in business, including globalisation and outsourcing, for clients
such as the Financial Times, the Economist Intelligence
Unit and a variety of B2B publications, including CIO
and Computing.
For seven years, I wrote a monthly article for Futurelab about
innovations (mostly, but not always, technological) in education,
and I've also contributed numerous articles to The Guardian
on the use of technology in education, as well as articles on
more general educational topics. I contributed several blog
posts to The Times's much-missed Schoolgate blog. For
information about my books on education, see the link to Books
in the side panel.
Between 2009 and 2014, I edited Perspective, the continuing professional
development magazine of NCT, the parenting charity. As well
as commissioning and editing copy, I wrote articles for the
magazine on topics such as maternal health and improving provision
for minority groups.In 2013, I published Birth Trauma,
a book for women who suffer post-traumatic stress disorder after
a difficult birth.
Here are some examples of my work (I haven't included any links
that are behind paywalls):

If you are either old enough to remember the 1964 election or are a student of politics, you are familiar with Lyndon Johnson's campaign ad that was called "Daisy." It showed a little girl picking daisies. That bucolic image was replaced with footage of a nuclear explosion. The ad suggested that if Barry Goldwater became President, we would have a nuclear war. The ad worked. Goldwater never became President.
Now in 2012, we have seen the footage for what may be the "Daisy" ad of 2012.
What is it?
Appearing on MSNBC today, Foster Friess, the billionaire who is bankrolling Rick Santorum's presidential run said, "On this contraceptive thing, my gosh, it's so inexpensive. You know, back in my days, they used Baer Aspirin for contraceptives. The gals put it between their knees and it wasn't that costly."
There are times you have to ask if some people think before they speak.
This line has already shot through the blogosphere.
Rick Santorum has already come out saying that as President he would "confront the dangers of contraception." He went on to say further on contraception, "It's not OK, because it's a license to do things in the sexual realm that is counter to how things are supposed to be."
Rick Santorum believes states have the right to outlaw contraception.
We are in the second great depression and this is a priority for Santorum? It is something he should not even be talking about.
If Santorum becomes the nominee, he has given the left so much ammunition that will split away many Americans from the conservative movement and the Republican Party that it will make not only a Republican Presidency impossible, but it could turn the tide in the battle for control of congress as well.
A majority of the members of the Tea Party movement are either baby boomers or seniors. A lot of us do not realize what this issue will do to the twenty and thirty something generation.
Each younger generation is a little more liberal than their parents. The generation that is the children and grand children of so many of those in this movement will look at Rick Santorum, not as a conservative but as the man who wants to lead a government that will peek into their bedrooms and control some of the most important decisions in their lives.
Obama cannot win reelection in 2012. Unemployment is over 8%. The real unemployment rate is really 15%. Gas is certainly going to be over $4 a gallon this summer and possibly as much as $5.
Obama cannot win.
The Republican nominee, who ever he is, can lose.
As much as Americans are unhappy with Obama, if they fear the Republican nominee, they will put Obama back in office.
Rick Santorum and Foster Friess, with their insane comments on contraception have the possibility of driving voters under forty back into the arms of Democrats and Obama.
If they fear Santorum more than they fear the economy under Obama, this is a recipe for disaster and that is exactly what will happen.
Friess' statements today and Santorum's statements yesterday and earlier this year will be incredible fodder for the Democrats and their allies in the drive by media.
Those statements will be the soundtrack for the 2012 edition of the Daisy ad for the Democrats.
And it will be just as effective.
Views: 2781
Scary indeed! If each generation is more liberal. More liberal means more government, see definitions of the direction we are heading, below:
(Definitions: Communism: Government ownership of the means of production. Fascism: Government control of the means of production. Nazism: Fascism with a genetic component.) This means that whenever anything goes wrong with the economy Capitalism is blamed even if brought about by government interference like the housing boom and bust. The solutions proposed are more government control (read Fascism). This creates more economic turmoil for which, once again, Capitalism is blamed. And the vicious cycle continues.
"According to the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University, there are clear gender differences in voter turnout: In recent elections, voter turnout rates for women have equaled or exceeded voter turnout rates for men. Women, who constitute more than half the population, have cast between four and seven million more votes than men in recent elections. In every presidential election since 1980, the proportion [of] female adults who voted has exceeded the proportion of male adults who voted."
Rick Santorum is making a losing argument and its tainting the Republican brand. After the contraception argument, personhood amendment in Mississippi and now Virginia, Susan G Komen rescinding Planned Parenthood funding before reinstating it, my mother has vowed to vote Obama this year. And she's a practicing Catholic. She thinks our side is anti-woman.
The Left loves this. Instead of discussing the issues that are important they will just keep pushing the Conservatives faces in the mud and exploit the social issues.
Unfortunately our candidates are falling right in step with them and allowing this.
Where are the detailed plans for our economy when the European Union collapses. It will collapse because it must.
Where are the detalied platforms for long term jobs, trade reform, tax reform, regulation reform, immigration reform, energy policies and foreign policies. The candidates need to shift their focus onto the main problems confronting our nation. This religious "compromise" is just a stall tactic, as are all of Obama's delays, until after the election.
He knows if he gets reelected his Socialist/Marxist machine will be unstoppable as he won't be constrained due to being term-limited. We already have seen his blatant abuse of recess appointments, executive orders and Constitutional usurpation.
We MUST retain control of the House and regain control of the Senate at bare minimum. Defeating Obama can only be done on the issues he has failed so miserably on.
COC & ABO (Control of Congress & Anybody But Obama) 2012
I usually agree with a lot of what this post says. I love Newt and would love for him to be the nominee. However, if anyone would listen to the words spoken by Friess just before the selected quote in this article, he pointed out just how ridiculous it is that with all the economic problems our country is faced with, so many choose to focus instead on issues of contraception and sex. I COMPLETELY agree with Friess on this point!
I agree with him as well. Most of our fiscal problems can be traced right back to un-wed mothers staying in the welfare system and producing more babies to get more of that money. The trillions that we have spent on these social issues are linked. John Adams said that our Constitution was for a Moral and Religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. If that is not what we are witnessing right now, then what is it? The Constitution if being used against us, BECAUSE we are not a moral and religious people anymore. If girls would keep their legs closed and men would stay with their wives and raise their families we would be in a lot less mess than we are in today. Our moral foundation has rotted to the core, and we have no moral compass left in this country. It wouldn't be until we return to that compass (God) that we can get on the right track. That my friends IS the bottom line and the ONLY thing that will save this nation. Not Rick, Newt nor Mitt or even the "chosen" one, Obumma. ONLY GOD HIMSELF!
Can't disagree with any of this. The #1 thing the GOP nominee, whoever that is, needs to focus on in order to beat Obama and win the White House is simple: JOBS, JOBS, JOBS!
Start by asking Americans this question: what has Barack Obama done to get people working again, and has it worked? If not, why not?
Then, after giving them the answer to those questions, tell them: "THIS IS WHAT MY PRESIDENCY WILL DO TO GET AMERICA WORKING AGAIN." There .... that's the first conversation to have with Americans. Are other things, like defense, the courts, Obamacare, etc. important? Sure they are. But if you want to talk to Americans about what WE talk about at the dinner table, it's JOBS; both ours (if we have one) and the fact that so many of our families and friends DON'T have one. THAT will get voters' attention and hold it. Tell them you know what's happening, why, and how Obama - with four more years - will make it worse, and you've drawn them in. Tell voters you have a PLAN to fix things (that WON'T involve people hurting more, unless it's absolutely necessary), and that you know how to execute that plan .... then you'll find yourself sitting in the Oval Office .... and I don't mean just for beer and brats.
The candidate who can accomplish that will get voters on their side. And if they have answers for other problems, dandy. But they gotta start with the JOBS issue - period.
A man who is faithful in the small things will be faithful in the large. While you may not agree with his stance on contraceptives and such, it is refreshing to see a man who will stand by his convictions rather than acting like a fish out of water flip-floping all over the place. Michael Radisson's mother may feel that Santorum is anti-woman, but she plans to vote for a person who isn't a natural born citizen, is anti-American, anti-free market, anti-Christian who wants to give our missle defense secrets to the Soviets and our money to our enemies. With all respect, she needs to stop sipping the Kool-Ade....and so do many others.
Had an exlady friend ,managed a realty company in Fl, voted for Clinton because he was so charming, this contraceptive issue isn't about Catholics, it's designed to drive dumbass women to vote for Ovomit & it will work.
Now we are to believe a practicing Catholic who will be vindictive because Santorum associates with a comedian & this will drive her to Ovomit, she really has her priorties in order. I have never seen scripture whereby there were differences allowed due to personal interpretations, but Hell what do I know?, just a Baptist
With friends like Foster Friess, Santorum doesn't need enemies.
OTOH, challenging contraception is part of Santorum's social conservative milieu, and while he can choose how he wants to frame the debate so as to appeal to the widest possible audience, he cannot avoid the subject and be true to himself. I, for one, believe that Santorum could beat Obama even with this issue as part of his platform, if he had a national organization that could carry the fight. Unfortunately, Foster Friess has created an unwanted issue for Santorum that could hurt him, and also unfortunately, Santorum's organization is weak. I support him, and I hope he can make it all the way to the convention with enough delegates to win or at least strongly influence the platform, but I am concerned, and comments like Mr. Friess made do not ease my concerns at all.
Santorum is stuck on stupid! So at this point we have Romney who has failed to win over most conservatives and won't win over independents. And Santorum who is all about social issues and Iran not about jobs and the economy. That leaves only one person to bounce back and take the nomination, who has the bold ideas and who we need to invest our effort in. Newt.

How to invest in commercial property: a beginner's guide
Britain is a nation of property lovers. But rather than buying a residential property, how about investing in commercial property?
The asset class hasn't always had an easy ride. In 2008, commercial property prices fell by an unprecedented 44 per cent almost overnight as the US sub-prime mortgage crisis resonated around the globe and prices outside of London are only now starting to regain their lost ground.
Since 2007, the market has gradually got itself back on its feet, and is becoming an increasingly attractive investment again.
Mat Oakley, head of commercial property research for Savills, points out that while the price of property in premium areas such as London has largely recovered, there could still be value in the other areas, not to mention potential rental income.
'The attraction of UK commercial real estate is that you get capital growth and income return,' says Oakley. 'Certainly if you were looking to capture the capital yield bounce from 2007/08 in the premium markets you might have missed it.
'But when you get outside London rental growth is only just going positive. The prospects for rental growth are starting to accelerate.'
The basics
The commercial property market is made up of shops, industrial buildings such as warehouses, and offices. You can typically invest directly by investing in a fund which holds actual physical property in its portfolio or by buying a property yourself, or indirectly by investing in funds exposed to property companies, developers and housebuilders, for example a real estate investment trust (Reit).
'Direct' property investment funds or trusts buy these units and rent them out to other businesses on long leases, making a profit from the rental income as well as (hopefully) capital growth in the price of the property. This makes them popular with income seekers, as rental income typically rises in line with inflation.
For ideas on which funds and trusts you can invest in, view Money Observer's Rated Funds in the property category.
Bricks and mortar traditionally has little correlation with equities and bonds, so in times of volatility commercial property can help to preserve wealth. 'The only time there is a correlation is when property rents are falling,' says Oakley.
'For many investors, the most appropriate way to invest in commercial property is via a collective investment scheme,' says Gordon Kearney, investment director of Colchester-based Fiducia Wealth. 'Property funds on the whole are a cheap and easy way to gain exposure to commercial property as an asset class.'
As mentioned above, investment funds and trusts providing exposure to the sector are divided into two types. A traditional bricks and mortar fund will invest in the property directly, and be structured as either an open-ended fund or a closed-end investment trust.
It will physically buy the property and be responsible for its maintenance and rent collection, and have the added benefit of a regular rental income. However, as offices and warehouses are not easily bought or sold, such funds can be very illiquid.
Conversely, a property securities fund invests in the shares of listed property companies and so is far more liquid, but exposed to the ups and downs of the stock market.
Investors can also buy shares directly in a Reit (real estate investment trust) such as Land Securities or British Land, which runs a portfolio of properties, although this is a far less diverse way to invest as it's just one company.
Those who can afford it can also buy a property outright and lease it to companies themselves, although this is without question a labour and capital-intensive - not to mention risky - way to gain access to the sector.
Within bricks and mortar funds, managers will typically invest in the whole spectrum of commercial property: offices, warehouses, shopping centres and car parks. In addition, the property is divided by quality into prime, secondary or tertiary property.
Prime property, much as the name suggests, is good-quality property, usually situated in big towns and cities and attracting a string of top-drawer tenants.
Secondary and tertiary property is situated in less prime locations, with high-quality tenants harder to find. There's a higher yield available from these sub-prime properties, as the risk of void (empty) periods and defaults is higher.
What to be aware of
Since the crash of 2008, the UK's commercial property sector has staged a recovery. However, there remain some struggles in the market. A large risk in the commercial property sector is finding tenants for empty buildings as Les Lang, head of the Infinity Real Estate Development fund, points out.
'In addition, we have seen the market "split" into two - property in good-quality locations, which continues to be investable, and property in poorer, secondary locations that are often un-fundable and provide a poor return,' he says.
Property investors should be wary of three key areas: volatility, diversification and liquidity. On the upside, property funds can be less volatile than those focused on other assets, but direct property funds in particular are much less liquid because you are selling an actual property.
It can be especially hard to sell in a market crash. Note that open-ended funds are particularly sticky because the fund manager has to cash in units - meaning selling property.
Closed-ended funds like investment trusts are more liquid because you just need to sell the shares in the trust, not the underlying assets.
In addition, investors should ensure they take a well-diversified approach. 'Investors should be wary of funds that are too concentrated in one particular sector or region; a good spread of properties across retail, office and industrial should diversify sector-specific risks,' says Kearney.
'They should also be cautious with funds only holding a small number of properties, which increases tenant-specific risks. Ideally you are looking for a fund to hold at least 40 properties.'
The main disadvantage of commercial property is that the location and management of the property is 'everything', according to Lang. 'Get these wrong and commercial property can be unforgiving.' It's also worth remembering that commercial property funds can be slightly more expensive than funds invested in other assets.
We make every effort to ensure our beginner's guides are kept up-to-date. However, in the constantly shifting environment of investment and financial services, occasions may arise where elements of a guide become out-of-date. Please double-check the facts before taking any important financial decisions.
When we write about
When we write about commercial property, we're talking about office space, retail stores, industrial units and warehousing; basically any building or structure suitable for operating a business. This of course means that commercial investment opportunities vary greatly in size, location, and cost; but importantly, also in risk and return.
Another point in addition
The property is rarely a representation of the owner. Office space, retail stores, and industrial units are almost always rented out without reservation. If the company can pay rent, they almost always get the space. And as one of the biggest commercial property owners told me recently, the major difference between commercial and private is that private renters will destroy an apartment, while commercial will try to improve the property.

Photofixation of CO2 to produce synthetically valuable molecules can be achieved on a photoelectrode based on silicon nanowires. In their Communication on page 6709 ff., K. L. Tan, D. Wang et al. develop a strategy that uses aromatic ketones to receive the photogenerated electrons. The resulting radicals then react with carbon dioxide to afford α-hydroxy acids, which are precursors for the drugs ibuprofen and naproxen. In close resemblance to natural photosynthesis, their strategy gains reaction specificity by avoiding the direct reduction of CO2.

The motion of a single water ligand around a peptide bond in acetanilide was probed in real time by time-resolved IR spectroscopy. In their Communication on page 6604 ff., O. Dopfer, M. Fujii et al. observe that triggered by photo-ionization, the H2O ligand is released from the CO site of the peptide linkage and trapped after a migration time of 5 ps at the NH site of the same peptide bond. The migration occurs via an intermediate in which the H2O molecule binds neither to the CO nor the NH site.

In control: By controlling the kinetics of alkynylation over aldolization, the challenging asymmetric catalytic alkynylation of acetaldehyde has been realized. The resulting products are attractive synthons which are produced with good to excellent enantiocontrol, and show broad tolerance and applicability, as demonstrated by the synthesis (+)-tetrahydropyrenophorol.

Lights on: When illuminated, p-type Si nanowires donate photogenerated electrons to aromatic ketones, producing reactive radicals that can harvest CO2 to yield α-hydroxy acids (see scheme). The reaction scheme closely resembles that of natural photosynthesis and gives up to 98 % yield and selectivity. Products obtained by this reaction include important precursors for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen and naproxen.

Hitting the right target: Differentiation between two keto moieties was accomplished by a regio- and enantioselective bioamination employing ω-transaminases. Using 1,5-diketones as substrates gave access to the optically pure 2,6-disubstituted piperidine scaffold. The approach allowed the shortest synthesis of the alkaloid dihydropinidine, as well as its enantiomer, by choosing an appropriate ω-transaminase.

By combining DNA probes having different target affinities, but with similar specificity on the same electrode, an extended dynamic response of a biosensor spanning three orders of magnitude in target concentration was obtained. By using a different strategy, the useful dynamic range of an electrochemical DNA sensor was narrowed to only an 8-fold range of target concentrations.

Five in one: Catalytic cascade reactions of dienynes catalyzed by cationic rhodium(I)–binap complexes lead to the formation of 1,2-dihydronaphthalenes, naphthalenes, and 1,4-dihydronaphthalenes. These cascade reactions involve up to five fundamentally different transformations, including the catalytic enantioselective carboformylation of alkenes with aldehydes or the cycloisomerization of enallenes.

The radiochemical synthesis of [18F]4-fluorophenols is based on phenol umpolung under oxidative conditions and direct nucleophilic fluorination with [18F]fluoride (see scheme, TBAF=tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride, TFA=trifluoroacetic acid). Readily available O-unprotected 4-tert-butyl phenols are used as precursors in this one-pot protocol. The reaction is completed in less than 30 minutes at room temperature and can be performed using standard or microfluidic technology.

Distorted germylene: A distorted seven-membered N-heterocyclic germylene, which has a germanium center of relatively high Lewis acidity, reacts with benzaldehyde to give (2+1+1) or (2+2+1) cycloadducts. The type of cycloadduct produced in the reaction is dependent on the ratio of substrates used. It is considered that the reactions involve stereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of an in situ generated carbonyl germaylide.

Resistance is futile: A platinum(IV) prodrug conjugated to a gold-nanorod-based delivery agent avoids the type of drug resistance that is associated with cisplatin (see picture). This conjugate is taken up into cells through endocytosis, thus avoiding the resistance-associated uptake mediated by the copper transport protein Ctr1. The platinum(IV) prodrug is more inert than cisplatin to glutathione and metallothionein, which cause deactivation.

The tungsten benzylidyne complex [PhCW{OSi(OtBu)3}3] efficiently catalyzes the metathesis of conjugated diynes and ring-closing diyne metathesis (see scheme). Although this reaction implies CC single-bond activation, 13C labeling studies reveal that it proceeds by classical alkylidyne group exchange and involves cleavage and formation of carbon–carbon triple bonds.

Coordinative flexibility and ligand bifunctionality play important roles in a biomimetic iron complex of a hexadentate ligand (see picture). This system can bind an auxiliary iodosylbenzene ligand to give the first structurally characterized metal complex of this important oxidizing agent. The complex is a protected precursor for FeVO species, and the selective high-yielding catalytic oxygenation of a sulfide is demonstrated.

A radical B12 synthesis: A recently described blue 7,8-secocorrinoid, a degradation product of vitamin B12, has a remarkable structural predisposition for ring closure. Reductive reconstitution of the corrin macrocycle by means of a stereospecific radical reaction leads to a 7-epicobalamin.

Sometimes interviewing Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige can feel like an interrogation. "Tell us about which sequels you're working on!" "Just admit that Dr. Strange is your next movie!" In all fairness, though, Feige is always a total sport about the geek-heavy grilling sessions, and is more than happy to talk about how Marvel Studios has completely reinvented the movie-making game over the past few years, to the point that all the major studios are now chasing their fresh, inspired ideas.
Superhero sequels are quickly becoming the most successful kind of sequel (if they aren't already), surpassing animated sequels, comedy sequels and horror sequels as a surefire way to strike box office gold, assuming you get it right. For Marvel Studios, they just keep getting it right, and their latest sequel, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, continues their streak of wildly entertaining superhero movies.
We recently spoke to Feige about all things Marvel and Captain America, and here's a quick, nerdy taste of our lengthy conversation.
The best thing about these Captain America movies…
"Finding different genres to graph our stories onto has been very important to us, and I think the best examples have been the Captain America movies. Very early on we knew that if the first [Captain America] was going to be a World War II movie, we wanted the second one to be like a '70s conspiracy thriller."
Is Captain America: The Winter Soldier more violent than previous Marvel movies?
"I think there's an intensity to the movie, and a relentlessness to some of the action that makes it feel very intense. But in terms of graphic violence, it's no more or less — and in most cases less — than some of our other movies. But because it's car chases on the street and it's not iron suits flying in the upper atmosphere, it feels much more real, which was the idea. The idea was to take a super soldier and place him in this conspiracy thriller, which is why you have the car chases, gunfights and hand-to-hand combat."
The Captain America scene he's been dreaming about ever since he was a young kid
"Cap walking through the Smithsonian is something I've been dreaming about for years and years. I used to go to the Smithsonian as a kid. I grew up in New Jersey, and we'd go down to Washington D.C. and walk through the Air and Space Museum my entire childhood. I always used to think to myself, gosh, what would it be like if you were an astronaut walking through this museum and seeing the capsule that you were in. So it's always been a dream of mine to put a character in a movie in that kind of scenario, and Steve Rogers was the perfect opportunity for that."
What's the latest with Captain America 3 and Thor 3?
"Both are in the very early stages of development; getting scripts going, getting stories going. And it's really not until we're comfortable that we got something, that we're onto something, before we set a date and announce it. But I would see [both movies arriving in the same phase] as a possibility for sure, in the way both Dark World and The Winter Soldier were in the same phase."
Will Marvel have to recast its most popular heroes at any point in the near future?
"Well I'd argue that Iron Man has passed his part four, and starts shooting his part five in two weeks with The Avengers: Age of Ultron. It is definitely ongoing. The contracts are set, and the general idea of what movies are going to go where is fairly set for the next five to seven years. So I hope I don't have to worry about that anytime soon."
How close is Marvel to announcing a director and star for Dr. Strange?
"Not as close as the rumors would have you believe, but we are absolutely actively taking meetings and honing in on our choice, and I hope we have it soon."
Will Marvel Studios ever create brand new superheroes for their movies?
"Not necessarily when we have thousands and thousands of characters that we haven't brought to the screen yet. There are so many great characters that I don't think we'll need to invent any for the movies. I'd rather the comics invent new characters and develop great stories for them and give us things to adapt in the decades to come."
How different Ant-Man is from The Avengers: Age of Ultron
"I wouldn't describe Ant-Man as a quieter movie by any means, but I would describe it as very, very different [than Avengers: Age of Ultron], just in the way Guardians of the Galaxy in a few months is going to be very, very different than The Winter Soldier. Or how different Dark World was from Iron Man 3. That's very important to us. We like what we're coming into now. How The Winter Soldier is a new story in an existing franchise and Guardians of the Galaxy is wholly new. Next year Age of Ultron is the next chapter in an existing franchise saga, and then Ant-Man is wholly new. I hope we continue that into 2016 and 2017 because I like that as a balance, and as a way of keeping our movies fresh."

Hey everyone. I have the following problem, I recently bought a new laptop (a Lenovo Ideapad) and it seems as if it came without a Windows 7 Installation disk (though it is on the laptop). The problem is that I usually reinstall the OS to get rid of all the bloatware, but without the Windows 7 CD, I dont know how to get rid of all of the bloatware. I know of PC Decrapifier; not sure how well that works; would have preferred to just reinstall the OS, but I was wondering if there was anyway of doing this without having the actual CD, but having a genuine copy.
Thanks in advance!

Maclaren Beginning – a product review
As many of you know, I'm very choosy about the personal care products I will use on my children. I'm kind of selective about what I will use on myself too, but the truth is I'm much more discriminating when it comes to my kids. That's just how mothering goes, is it not? ;) I recently was given some new holistic personal care products from the Maclaren Beginning line to review and I have to say I was quite pleased with them. First of all, they use natural and organic ingredients and 100% pure essential oils. All essential oils and exotic butters are sourced throughRead More →

I refuse to fight the good fight regarding barbecue-on-the-bone: spareribs vs. baby backs, Kansas City vs. Memphis, Texas vs. "Lou-zee-anna." I love ribs every which way.

At his Lake Forest Park roadside attraction you'll find him playing central casting's good ol' boy, insisting fried-alligator virgins have a complimentary bite of the house specialty. His menu's long on frog legs, fried peppers, fat shrimp and beignets borne from a cloud, but "hush!" puppies.
Don't be missin' those mighty slow-smoked pork ribs ($14.45 as a "supper plate") dripping with a sassy sauce and delivered by friendly staffers — or Casper himself — who joke "dentures are optional." Come rain or come shine, set yourself up in the sprawling room-with-a-view: a tented year-round patio overlooking Lake Washington.
A second love shack — a mobile takeout unit — is parked in Bothell, 19510 Bothell-Everett Highway, 11 a.m.-8 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays (425-482-9692).
Dixie's BBQ
11522 Northup Way, Bellevue; 11 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Mondays-Saturdays (425-828-2460).
It's been a long time since I met "The Man" — that hot-sauce-in-a-pan famously doled out on a toothpick by Bellevue mechanic turned 'cue-man, Gene Porter. But there I stood, in the famously cramped hallway at Porter's former automotive shop, waiting for an audience with the barking cashier.
"Next in line!" she directs from a chair next to "Mom" (who sweats over a cafeteria-style steam table, slooowly stuffing generous helpings of meats into takeout containers).
Rolling her eyes, she shakes her head as the guy behind me asks for potato salad with his 520 Special: barbecued pork plus a bloated "hot link" as tame as a toddler's tube steak. (They're out.)
"Put the lemon cake in the bag!" sarge shouts to her counterpart, a fella who stands helpless as Mom slooowly dishes up my combo "dinner" ($20).
At a parking-lot picnic table I take a plastic fork to my mushy, flavorless, overcooked pork spare ribs, a haunch of chicken and a literal mess of beef brisket doused with a tomato sauce that tastes like ketchup and begs for spice, for nuance — for "The Man?" And I shake my head.
Pig Iron Bar-B-Q
5602 First Ave. S., Seattle; 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Tuesdays-Fridays, noon-8 p.m. Saturdays (206-768-1009, www.pigironbbq.net).
Georgetown's popular pit stop looks like a cross between a Texas taproom and a Jersey diner. Here you're greeted by Johnny Cash (segue to Elvis Costello) and something you don't find much of in local 'cue joints: a lineup of booze.
I was happy to hoist a first-rate 'rita, its canning-jar rim subtly salted. My "3-Way Combo" ($19.50) offered spare ribs, chicken and beef brisket piled on a tin plate. That meat was lukewarm and far less moist than it should have been (as was my sidekick's half-rack of baby back's ($19.50) and helped along with a squeeze-bottle-squirt from a trio of sauces (do try the mustard-stoked version). Loved the sides of crisp sweet-potato fries, plus creamed corn and jalapeno-spinach casserole served in a tin cups.
Smokin' Pete's BBQ
1918 N.W. 65th St., Seattle; 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Mondays-Wednesdays, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Thursdays-Saturdays in summer (9 p.m. close after summer), 11:30 a.m.-9 p.m. Sundays (206-783-0454; www.smokinpetesbbq.com).
There are those who say Ballard's Smokin' Pete's wrote the book on Northwest-raised meats and poultry. They wouldn't be wrong. Co-owner Julie Reinhardt is author of the new estrogen-fueled griller, "She-Smoke: A Backyard Barbecue Book," sold here along with other must-buys like her 'cue-master husband Eric's bottled sauces. Settle in alone at this barbecue bistro to contemplate the Memphis-style dry-rubbed drama of a "2+2 Combo" ($15.95) with two meats and two sides.
Going solo? May I suggest smoky spareribs and fabulously marbled beef brisket backed by blackened broccoli and pineapple-laced "Island" slaw.
"The Family" — a $43 option that feeds four — bought mine a mountainous trio of meats and another of sides, plus sweet-potato muffins or hush puppies. Fruit pies? You won't need any, but since when did that stop you?
Willie's Taste of Soul Bar-B-Que
3427 Rainier Ave. S., Seattle; 11 a.m.-8 p.m. Mondays-Thursdays, 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Fridays-Saturdays, 1p.m.-5 p.m. Sundays (206-722-3229, www.williestasteofsoul.com)
Willie Turner won me over way back when — when his was a one-man-stand on Beacon Hill and I could watch him tend to his flock. Then, as now, fans are religious about his rib tips and ends, his tender chicken, his homemade hot links plus his bone-i-fied pork ribs and daintier (but no less delightful) baby backs, whose meat offers the teeth a tantalizing tug.
Willie's since moved his show to Rainier Valley, parked his smoker out back and his mile-high layer cakes upfront, and I'm still nuts about the Southern comfort of his greens, his candied yams, his mac 'n cheese-elbows and the good grace with which he cooks and serves it all.

Words of Wisdom for MBA Grads at Investiture Ceremony
June 12, 2011 by Susan J. Boutwell
Jeff Immelt graduated from Dartmouth with a degree in applied mathematics in 1978. He's been GE president and chairman since 2000. (photo by Joseph Mehling '69)
Soon-to-be Tuck School of Business MBAs received an early graduation gift from GE CEO Jeff Immelt '78: five tips for success.
In a packed Leede Arena at the Tuck Investiture Ceremony, Immelt told the MBA candidates to think globally, have the courage to make difficult decisions, be problem solvers, connect with people, and understand context.
Tuck will graduate 254 MBA students on Sunday, June 12, 2011. At the Investiture, they received the academic hoods they will wear at Commencement. Tuck Dean Paul Danos wished the students well, encouraging them to "exercise your leadership with grace."
For the ceremony's keynote speech, Immelt, a member of Dartmouth's Board of Trustees, says he decided to speak in concrete terms, in contrast to the more philosophical speech he gave at Dartmouth's 2004 Commencement. "You're up to eyeballs in debt and you're looking for work, so I thought I'd speak more directly to you," he says.
As more than 1,600 family and friends watched, Immelt advised students to embrace globalization, despite the fact that those around them may not.
"Every one of you is going to be a global thinker in the future," he says. "And one thing you all have in common, no matter where you came from, is that you're the only ones that are going to like globalization. The people in your communities don't. Your parents don't. You can't be afraid of it. You have to embrace it, you have to accept it. You have to lead from a global framework."
Before he arrived at Dartmouth as an undergraduate, Immelt had never been more than 100 miles from his Ohio hometown. Today's young business leaders must travel far from home, he says, cautioning them to be humble in far-away places. "You can't have any arrogance in order to learn."
Another change from his early years in business, says Immelt, is that for young executives, decisions must be made quickly. "You could go five years in the 90s without have to make a really tough decision. You can't go five minutes today without making really tough calls."
Many of the world's biggest crises have happened on Immelt's watch at GE, and touched sectors of his business. He was there through 9/11, having the world's biggest airplane fleet; through Hurricane Katrina, having one of the biggest insurance companies in the world; through the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy, having one of the biggest financial service companies in the world; through the BP oil spill, having a large oil and gas business; and through the Japan earthquake, having nuclear power business in GE's portfolio.
They point up "the amount of adaptability you have to have to be a winner and survivor in the business world today," he says. "Make decisions. Don't fear. Your MBA gives you the right and gives you the strength to make decisions."
Immelt urged students to learn to be good at solving problems, and to ask for the toughest assignments. He said too often people look for work in areas of business that are doing well.
"It's really the bad businesses that are going to make you a good leader, and that's where you have to be willing to go," he advises. "Learn how to be the person who takes on the toughest challenges. That's how you get ahead."
And to be a good leader, "you have to like people," Immelt says. He said Dartmouth teaches students "how to build connections with people. And that's the foundation on which great leaders are built."
It's also important to understand context around business, he says. "How does any of the work you do fit into a larger context?"
Lastly, Immelt told students they have an important role in a competitive society. "The future's going to be created by persistent, tough-minded optimists, like the ones I hope we have in this room."
