For today's piece, I want to try something a little bit different, especially because this isn't the first time I've spoken of Seth MacFarlane here. Last year, I wrote about MacFarlane as a future A-list comedy filmmaker on the eve of his sophomore feature A Million Ways to Die in the West opening. Then, that movie underperformed, so he's still waiting for that second hit (after Ted) to solidify his cinematic standing in the same way that he has on television. Well, this weekend he has the opportunity with Ted 2, so I wanted to repost part of my MacFarlane piece, updated with some Ted 2 extra goodness. Hopefully this is a fun idea, since honestly…it's fun sometimes to double dip and give something another go.
Below you'll see a re-edited look at my thoughts last year on MacFarlane, tailored more now for Ted 2 than A Million Ways to Die in the West, along with some extra remarks on that new flick. Take a gander:
We've known for years now that Seth MacFarlane was one of the kings of animated television comedy, but it was only a few years ago that we saw him conquer cinemas as well with his directorial debut Ted. The film was hilarious, clever, and better received by critics than anyone was expecting. In a heartbeat, MacFarlane had the keys to the Hollywood comedy kingdom. If his new movie (Ted 2, this time) is a success this weekend, could MacFarlane be on his way to surpassing Judd Apatow as the biggest comedic filmmaker out there?
To be fair, that's not exactly an apt comparison. Apatow and MacFarlane are both masters of different crafts, with the former also someone who consistently has his hands in more pies and seems to have somewhat artier ambitions at times. They're also shooting at different audiences now too. The people that came out in droves for The 40 Year Old Virgin and Knocked Up aren't the same targets for Funny People and This is 40. In fact, they're the target audience for Ted, A Million Ways to Die in the West, and Ted 2. If his newest work is a big hit like his debut as the character, MacFarlane will certainly be able to at least stake the claim that there's nobody bigger in comedy today than him.
While his work is far from highbrow, I think his writing doesn't get enough credit. […]

Seth MacFarlane looks to establish comedy dominance with "Ted 2"
For today's piece, I want to try something a little bit different, especially because this isn't the first time I've spoken of Seth MacFarlane here. Last year, I wrote about MacFarlane as a future A-list comedy filmmaker on the eve of his sophomore feature A Million Ways to Die in the West opening. Then, that movie underperformed, so he's still waiting for that second hit (after Ted) to solidify his cinematic standing in the same way that he has on television. Well, this weekend he has the opportunity with Ted 2, so I wanted to repost part of my MacFarlane piece, updated with some Ted 2 extra goodness.

The 82nd Academy Awards: If I had been a voter
As I mentioned last time out, this series has officially returned. Yes, once again I'm going to be taking a look back at a recent (or now recent-ish) Oscar lineup and explaining what my vote would have been in each of the big eight categories we all follow so intently each season. I previously mentioned that potentially I could do this once a week with previous Academy Award ceremonies, and while I'm going to be attempting to do just that, time will still tell if it's something that gets stuck with or not. Again, if nothing else, this continues to give you an interesting look into my cinematic tastes. Over the course of the year you can sort of get a feel for what my current favorites are, but now we can look to the past a bit more.
Alright then, here goes nothing folks…behold my picks for this particular ceremony:
Best Picture – Up in the Air
The nominees here were A Serious Man, An Education, Avatar, The Blind Side, District 9, The Hurt Locker, Inglourious Basterds, Precious, and Up. The main snub here, in my book at least, was (500) Days of Summer, and I nearly went with the actual winner in The Hurt Locker, but Up in the Air was my #1 film of this year, so that made it pretty academic in the end.
Best Director – Kathryn Bigelow for The Hurt Locker
A history making and diverse category this time out, the field consisted of Kathryn Bigelow for The Hurt Locker, James Cameron for Avatar, Lee Daniels for Precious, Jason Reitman for Up in the Air, and Quentin Tarantino for Inglourious Basterds. I believe Marc Webb was snubbed for (500) Days of Summer and really wish that Reitman had come closer to winning, but when you come right down to it, I can't argue with Bigelow. The first woman to ever win Best Director gets my vote here as well.
Best Actor – George Clooney for Up in the Air
Here the nominees were Jeff Bridges for Crazy Heart, George Clooney for Up in the Air, Colin Firth for A Single Man, Morgan Freeman for Invictus, and Jeremy Renner for The Hurt Locker. The Academy missed the boat on nominating Sam Rockwell for Moon, but aside from him, I'd have to go for Clooney.
Best Actress – Carey Mulligan for An Education
The big snub to me here was Zooey Deschanel for (500) Days […]
Gary Lucchesi and Lori McCreary Elected Presidents of the Producers Guild of America
The Producers Guild of America (PGA) announced today its 2014 National Board and officer election results, which were shared during the Guild's annual General Membership Meeting tonight on the Warner Bros. Studios lot. The Producers Guild elected Gary Lucchesi and Lori McCreary as Presidents. Other newly PGA national officers include: Vice Presidents of Motion Pictures David Friendly and Lydia Dean Pilcher; Vice Presidents of Television Tim Gibbons and Jason Katims; Treasurer Christina Lee Storm, and Vice President PGA East Region Peter Saraf. Outgoing PGA Presidents Mark Gordon and Hawk Koch, who served since 2010, received special recognition at the meeting for their unwavering service to the Producers Guild over the years, including their seminal advocacy on behalf of the Guild's credit certification, the Producers Mark.
"We are extremely honored and excited to begin this new chapter with the Producers Guild," said McCreary and Lucchesi. "We have seen numerous positive changes over the past four years as a result of the hard work of our Presidents, the PGA National Board and its committee members. We hope to continue to build upon the great work of our predecessors and to protect the rights of our industry's hardworking producers."
Gary Lucchesi has served as the PGA's Vice President of Motion Pictures for the past four years as well as co-chaired the Produced By Conference for the past four years.
Lori McCreary has served as the PGA's National Treasurer for the past two years as well as co-chaired the 2014 PGA Awards with Michael De Luca.
McCreary and Lucchesi's election marks the second time the Guild's nominating committee has selected a pair of members to stand for election together as Presidents, following Mark Gordon and Hawk Koch. The only other time the Guild has been governed by a pair of presidents was from 2001 – 2002, following the PGA's merger with the American Association of Producers, when the Guild was overseen by Kathleen Kennedy and Tim Gibbons. The 2014 election represents the first time the PGA has nominated pairs of candidates for its Vice Presidential offices.

He has also served as the Vice President, Motion Pictures for the Producers Guild of America since 2010. Lucchesi executive-produced MILLION DOLLAR BABY, which won the Oscar for Best picture of 2004.

Transcendence – Johnny Depp, Paul Bettany, Rebecca Hall, Kate Mara, Morgan Freeman, Cole Hauser, Cillian Murphy
Directed by: Wally Pfister
Written by: Jack Paglen
Main Cast: Johnny Depp, Paul Bettany, Rebecca Hall, Kate Mara, Morgan Freeman, Cole Hauser, Cillian Murphy, and others
Past Oscar relations: Pfister won Best Cinematography for Inception and Morgan Freeman won Best Supporting Actor for Million Dollar Baby
Here now we have the next article in this series on 2014 contenders hoping to compete for Oscar attention at the Academy Award ceremony in 2015. Next up is DP turned filmmaker Wally Pfister's directorial debut Transcendence, which hopes to more or less establish Pfister as the next Christopher Nolan (especially since he's Nolan's longtime cinematographer), though that may be a somewhat overly optimistic ambition. There's clearly a bit of Nolan in Pfister though, so we'll see. He's got a top notch cast in place here, including Johnny Depp, Paul Bettany, Rebecca Hall, Kate Mara, Morgan Freeman (a Nolan veteran), Cole Hauser, and Cillian Murphy (ditto), so that's a big help. If Pfister can take scribe Jack Paglen's well regarded script and make it into something special, perhaps this can be the sort of smart blockbuster that the Academy notices?
What this flick has going in its favor is mainly its pedigree. From the A list cast to the directorial debut of one of the best cinematographers in the business to the hot script that got this all start, hopes have been high from day one here. There's also the allure of seeing Depp in a role that doesn't require massive amounts of make up, so older fans of his may be intrigued by this more than many of his recent Disney outings. Followers of Nolan also know Pfister pretty well, so there's some level of anticipation of him getting to helm his own movie. There's an original premise on display as well, which is sort of rare these days. This all adds up to a film with lots of potential.
Working against Transcendence is that it appears to be caught between the worlds of heady science fiction and summer blockbuster action. The film could be too talky for the crowd who wants to see things blow up and it could be too reliant on adding spectacle for those who are looking to really get into the nitty gritty of the story here. Honestly, the release date makes me think that Warner Brothers themselves aren't quite sure how this will all play out, so unless there are top notch […]
Meryl Streep and Katie Couric join together against cancer
Academy Award®-winning actress Meryl Streep encourages people to get screened for colon cancer in new broadcast public service announcements (PSAs) that launch in March, in conjunction with National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month.
The PSAs, which will premiere today on Katie!, are the latest collaboration between the Entertainment Industry Foundation's National Colorectal Cancer Research Alliance (EIF's NCCRA), co-founded by Katie Couric, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for the CDC's Screen for Life: National Colorectal Cancer Action Campaign. This initiative is a multi-year effort to educate Americans about the importance of regular colorectal cancer screening for men and women aged 50 years and over.
Streep is one of the world's most renowned actors, having won three Academy Awards as well as multiple Golden Globe, British Academy of Film and Television Arts, and Screen Actors Guild awards, in addition to Primetime Emmys and a Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Film Institute. She is the third Oscar-winning actor to appear in the Screen for Life campaign, along with Morgan Freeman and Diane Keaton.
Of cancers that affect both men and women, colorectal cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States, taking the lives of more than 50,000 Americans every year. Yet the disease is highly preventable through screening. Screening can detect pre-cancerous growths called polyps that can be removed before they develop into colorectal cancer. Screening can also detect colorectal cancer at an early stage, when treatment is most effective.
Streep explains these benefits of screening in the PSA, titled Control, adding that, "For me, screening was simple and quick. It was no big deal, except for the huge sense of relief you feel afterwards."
The colorectal cancer death rate has declined steadily for several years. According to the CDC, half of this decrease can be attributed to more people getting screened. Despite that progress, one third of U.S. adults age 50 and over are still not up to date with recommended screening.
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends colorectal cancer screening for men and women aged 50–75. (The decision to be screened after age 75 should be made on an individual basis. People older than 75 are advised to ask their doctors if they should be screened.)
The CDC considers Screen for Life one of the most effective campaigns it has undertaken to encourage screening.
Streep said she was motivated to get screened after seeing Katie Couric's […]
Shirley MacLain Receives AFI Lifetime Achievement Award
HollywoodNews.com: Last night, stage and screen legend Shirley MacLaine was lauded with the 40th annual AFI Life Achievement Award – the highest honor for a career in film. Some of Hollywood's most revered luminaries turned out to pay tribute to one of America's most beloved artists. The gala, entitled "TV Land Presents: AFI Life Achievement Award Honoring Shirley MacLaine," was taped at historic Stage 15 at Sony Pictures Studios last evening and will air on TV Land on Sunday, June 24 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT.
The evening's festivities kicked off with MacLaine entering the gala of over 1,000 attendees to "If My Friends Could See Me Now," a song she made famous in the 1969 screen version of "Sweet Charity." Immediately following dinner, Warren Beatty, MacLaine's brother, Academy Award®-winning actor and fellow AFI Life Achievement Award recipient (2008), talked about how the AFI Life Achievement Award was established in 1973 to ensure that "the great masters of film may take their deserved place in history beside leaders in other arts" and introduced the award recipients in attendance to celebrate MacLaine and the award's 40th anniversary – Sidney Poitier (1992), Jack Nicholson (1994), Steven Spielberg (1995), Meryl Streep (2004) and Morgan Freeman (2011).
Academy Award®-winning actress Julia Roberts took the stage to speak about MacLaine's love for playing cards and "the boys" of her life – Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and even Chicago mob boss, Sam Giancana. Fellow "Steel Magnolias" star Sally Field paid tribute to MacLaine by saying, "She is generous beyond a fault, a one of a kind original and an extraordinary actor. She's a renowned world traveler who collects people. They are her most valued treasures. And I'm very proud to be included in her lifelong collection." Dakota Fanning ("I Am Sam") and Katherine Heigl ("27 Dresses") both spoke about how MacLaine had inspired them in their own journeys in Hollywood. John Travolta introduced an inspiring video with footage from "Sweet Charity" and described MacLaine as "a woman who does it all – but always first – a dancer." He went on to say that she "fills the world with a presence never seen before."
Last year's AFI Life Achievement Award recipient, Morgan Freeman, recounted MacLaine's impressive journey that led her to where she is today, and Elizabeth McGovern, who stars on "Downton Abbey," shared a never-before-seen clip from […]
"Blade Runner" Screenwriter Hampton Fancher in Talks to Pen Sequel Idea for Director Ridley Scott
HollywoodNews.com: Hampton Fancher is in talks to reunite with his "Blade Runner" director Ridley Scott to develop the idea for the original screenplay for the Alcon Entertainment, Scott Free, and Bud Yorkin produced follow up to the ground-breaking 1982 science fiction classic, it was announced by Alcon co-founders and co-Chief Executive Officers Broderick Johnson and Andrew Kosove.
The filmmakers are also revealing for the first time that the much-anticipated project is intended to be a sequel to the renowned original. The filmmakers would reveal only that the new story will take place some years after the first film concluded.
The three-time Oscar-nominated Scott and his "Blade Runner" collaborator Fancher originally conceived of their 1982 classic as the first in a series of films incorporating the themes and characters featured in Philip K. Dick's groundbreaking novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep", from which "Blade Runner" was adapted. Circumstances, however, took Scott into other directions and the project never advanced.
Fancher, although a writer of fiction, was known primarily as an actor at the time Scott enlisted him to adapt the Dick novel for the screen. Fancher followed his ?Blade Runner? success with the screenplays, ?The Mighty Quinn? (1989) and "The Minus Man" (1999). He has continued to write fiction throughout his career.
Scott also will produce with Alcon co-founders and co-Chief Executive Officers Broderick Johnson and Andrew Kosove as well as Bud Yorkin and Cynthia Sikes Yorkin. Frank Giustra and Tim Gamble, CEO's of Thunderbird Films, will serve as executive producers.
The original film, which has been singled out as the greatest science-fiction film of all time by a majority of genre publications, was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." The film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry in 1993 and is frequently taught in university courses. In 2007, it was named the 2nd most visually influential film of all time by the Visual Effects Society.
State Kosove and Johnson: "It is a perfect opportunity to reunite Ridley with Hampton on this new project, one in fact inspired by their own personal collaboration, a classic of cinema if there ever was one."
Released by Warner Bros. almost 30 years ago, "Blade Runner" was adapted by Fancher and David Peoples from Philip K. Dick's groundbreaking novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" and directed by Scott following […]
The Hunger Games: The hunt for a new director is on
HollywoodNews.com: The Playlist doesn't break news all that often, merely seeing fit to be a one-stop shop for the movie news that everyone else breaks during the day (I don't mean that as an insult, The Playlist is the site I go to if I only have time to surf one movie news site in a given day), So it's somewhat of a big deal that The Playlist has broken a pretty major story, confirming that director Gary Ross will not be back to helm the second and/or third films in the Hunger Games franchise. There have been rumblings all week about contract negotiations, and Ross has now politely passed. The site chalks it up to both Ross's lack of desire to stay in the same universe for the next several years combined with a somewhat low-ball offer from Lionsgate. Whatever the case, Ross is gone and the hunt for a new director is now on. While editing my John Carter obituary a few weeks ago, I removed a large paragraph dealing with the trend of giving young white-male filmmakers with barely a feature credit to their name the keys to $100-300 million franchise films while seasoned pros and/or minorities remain noticeably absent from the 'wish-list' (yes, I was glad to see F. Gary Gray on the Marvel wish-list for Captain America 2). And while I wouldn't consider The Hunger Games a 'female film', it would be a great opportunity to make a point that female directors can indeed handle the kind of big-scale filmmaking that studios are all-too willing to offer to mostly untested male directors as a matter of course. So, perhaps arbitrarily, perhaps to prove a point about how inaccessible the 'wish list' is for female directors, here are nine directors who happen to be women who also belong on 'the wish-list' as Lionsgate hunts for a second director. These are in alphabetical order, with the exception of the final entry, who would be my 'top choice'.
Kathryn Bigelow
Duh. In fact, she'll probably make the wish-list as a token nod to gender-diversity, and all she had to do was become the first female in history to win a Best Director Oscar. I don't really have to explain this pick. She's been directing hard action pictures for thirty years. She's helmed the likes of Near Dark (a […]
Oscars: Billy Crystal Was Far From His Best
By Michael Russnow
HollywoodNews.com: The Academy Awards was a lot better than last year's offering and generally moved along pretty well. However, Billy Crystal's performance was mixed. Sometimes he was spot on and in other instances resorted to forced humor that missed its mark.
After Morgan Freeman's opening we saw Billy in an uninspiring repeat of what he'd done so well many times before, inserting himself into reproductions of well-known clips from the top films. Maybe it's because he's done it so many times. It's true that he hasn't been host since 2004, and we often enjoy an entertainer repeating his or her best work, but like an aging singer whose voice doesn't hold up when the muscles sag, what was downright hysterical in past years, like when he came out as Hannibal Lecter in 1992, this go-around didn't work too well for me in 2012.
The one exception was from The Descendants, when George Clooney recreated his visit to his comatose wife, played by Crystal lying in bed. Clooney's kiss was so heartfelt it provided a big laugh. The Justin Bieber bit from Midnight in Paris wasn't bad. Not so much the scene with Tom Cruise from Mission Impossible, nor was Crystal's business spoofing The Help or Tintin particularly funny.
Oddly when he segued into his Oscar medley it worked better, with the lyrics sharp and engaging. After that, it was hit and miss. Sometimes very clever and other times flat. And when the latter happened he often responded defensively, at one point indicating the band in the pit liked the joke. He also was a bit insensitive regarding the age of some of the nominees as he mentioned octogenarians Christopher Plummer and Max von Sydow, followed by senility jokes at their expense. Considering that Crystal himself is pushing 64 and that ageism besetting Hollywood is rampant with many talented professionals unemployed, it's just not funny anymore.
As the three hour ten minute show progressed, they whizzed through awards at a relatively rapid pace. Instead of starting with a celebrity award, such as supporting actor and actress, they began with Tom Hanks presenting Oscars for cinematography and art direction, both of which went on the scorecard for Hugo.
There was a montage of film clips that moved along all right, but, unless I missed one, it appeared that it was as if movie history began with 1969's Midnight Cowboy, because none of the featured films […]
Magnolia Takes US Rights to Rob Reiner's THE MAGIC OF BELLE ISLE
HollywoodNews.com: The Wagner/Cuban Company's Magnolia Pictures announced today they have acquired US rights to THE MAGIC OF BELLE ISLE, a warmly funny drama directed by Rob Reiner, starring Morgan Freeman, Virginia Madsen, Madeline Carroll, Kenan Thompson, and Fred Willard. The film was written by Guy Thomas, and produced by Alan Greisman, Lori McCreary, Salli Newman and David Valdes.
Reuniting with his director from the hit film, The Bucket List, Freeman plays Monte Wildhorn, a famous Western novelist whose struggle with alcoholism has
sapped his passion for writing. He takes a lakeside cabin for the summer in picturesque Belle Isle, and befriends the family next door?an attractive single mom (Madsen) and her young daughters?who help him find inspiration again.
Magnolia plans a theatrical and VOD release in its Ultra VOD program in the summer.
'We're thrilled to get the chance to work with Rob Reiner on THE MAGIC OF BELLE ISLE,' said Magnolia President Eamonn Bowles. 'It's a real pleasure to watch this stellar cast at the top of their game.'

Whether you're applying to be a remote contractor or an in-house employee, you can make the employer's decision an easy one by following these steps to make yourself a top candidate every time.
1. Assess yourself against the job description. With a world of opportunities out there, you can think of yourself as Goldilocks – you want to find the ones that fit "just right"! The job post is how you can assess fit and it can be your ticket to the top of the applicant list. A good job description will tell you a lot about the role, the employer and the must-have skills for the position. The best way to stand out among other applicants is to read the post carefully and make sure the fit is spot on. Do you have all the skills they are asking for? If not, this position may not be the right one for you – moving on will net you more time to find the one that fits your particular talents. If your resume fills all the needs laid out in the job description, make sure you address the must-haves in your cover letter to pass the initial resume review.
2. Bring all of your talents to the table. There are a lot of talented people out there – especially when employers are willing to fill the position remotely. How do you compete? Once you've highlighted the must-have skills from the job description in your cover letter, the next step is to think ahead. What else do you have in your arsenal that would add value to this position? If you're going for a marketing position, also being a published author could serve you well. Development and an eye for design is also a great pairing for value-conscious employers. What sets you apart is your ability to see how other skills you have would be an asset to the employer, and presenting them as needs the employer didn't realize they had.
3. Give them a taste of your expertise. Savvy employers will be interviewing their top candidates – so let them know you'd love the opportunity to discuss the position in more detail. Don't just ask for the interview, give them a hint as to what you'd like to discuss to tease them into giving you the nod for an interview. Present a few examples of standout activities you've done in similar roles, or ideas you have to take the assignment over the goal line on-time and under budget. I once had a writer tell me about his idea for blog post in a cover letter, and suggest that he'd be happy to discuss it in more detail during his interview. He not only got the interview, he got the job!
Bonus points: Tell them the best days and times to reach you for an interview up front. Got a busy schedule? Let them know you're happy to find a time mutually convenient to talk. Employers tend to squeeze interviews in between other obligations, so being flexible and available may automatically put you at the top of their list.
4. Close the deal. Once you've made it to the interview phase, you should get a good sense from the employer where you stand among other applicants. Employers with a number of qualified applicants may decide to hire them all for a brief assignment. Take the initiative and let them know you're not only interested in a test hire, you have ideas on ways you can prove your worth to them. Note: This is not an offer for free work or custom samples – you should always be paid for your time and efforts! Open to a offering a discounted rate for the first few days? Tell the employer that – its a great way to build their confidence in your abilities and prove that you are worth every penny of your full asking price. Let your work speak for itself, and show the employer how easy you are to work with!
5. Know your skill sweet spot. Let's face it, if you've never worked on this type of position before, you're not likely to nail it the first time through. The interview phase can be the most instructive – ask lots of questions and don't be afraid to admit where your skill set may fall short. Top candidates are the ones who know their skills inside and out, and can truly sell themselves to the employer as adding value to the position. Be confident in your abilities and honest about your experience. While your skills may not get the job this time, sticking to your area of expertise will earn you the respect of the employer – and the invitation to interview when they are hiring in your sweet spot.
Got tricks that make your own application process successful? Let me know in the comments!

Rarely a day goes by where I don't end up in a car park that looks like the scene from a disaster movie, where vehicles have been left abandoned. All it would need is for a few to still have doors open to round off the illusion that they were deserted by those attempting to flee the terror that was destroying the city behind them.
This week the world must celebrate the election of Catherine Samba-Panza, the first female president of the Central African Republic. Beating her nearest rival Désiré Kolingba, son of a former CAR president, her election brings hope to a country becoming so seeped in the blood of its own people. In her victory speech, Ms Samba-Panza urged Christian militias, known as anti-balaka, and Muslim fighters in the ex-Seleka rebel movement to end the bloodshed.
There have been very few direct threats towards international journalists in the country, but getting caught up in the crossfire, being robbed, or even sexually assaulted are all daily risks. Some writers still managed to get the story out from a distance, relying on telephone or email interviews, and press releases from Human Rights Watch or Doctors Without Borders to embellish their copy. So, what changed?
Time is of the essence in a sport that is measured in the one thousandth of a second and to change all four wheels in under two seconds is a terrific feat by anyone's measure. Teams practice pitstops regularly and in Austin you could catch some of those practice sessions during the pit walk on Thursday.
For a family car, the annual summer holiday is perhaps the biggest test it can undergo. Not only does it have to put in the extra mileage, but it does so whilst being rigorously poked, prodded, and abused by children who care not a jot for the cars resale value. Perhaps the best way to avoid this kind of scenario is by keeping children occupied on a long journey.

Opinion: 'Dear Mr. Lieberman, in General, You Are not Welcome Here'
Throughout his political career, Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has rattled sabers in the Middle East. On Thursday, Germany's foreign minister is meeting with the ultranationalist. Here's the dressing down Frank-Walter Steinmeier should give him when the press isn't listening.
Avigdor Lieberman: Israel's foreign minister is visiting Berlin on Thursday.
In the matter of Iran's bid to acquire nuclear weapons, you will achieve the opposite of what you are aiming for: No one will be prepared to even consider tougher sanctions against Iran unless you commit yourself to a two-state solution with your Palestinian neighbors, unless you finally accept and implement a halt to the construction of settlements in the occupied territories, as demanded by the United Nations, the US and the European Union. You cannot seriously expect to use the UN and insist, right down to the last detail, on the enforcement of all sanctions that have been imposed on Tehran and, at the same time, unscrupulously ignore all UN resolutions on your settlement policies. In the Arab world, this is called "Israeli two-facedness" and, although I persistently stand in your defense against broad, sweeping generalizations -- particularly from this camp -- I have to say: I share the Arab position on this point.
My dear Mr. Lieberman, I see the indignation in your eyes. You have a reputation as a very engaging and charming man. But I know that you occasionally tend to insinuate that your critics harbor disingenuous motives, and you believe that they seek to personally vilify you. That is not my intention. Some would maliciously say that your past as a market hawker in the former Soviet Union, and as a bouncer at Israeli nightclubs, is not exactly the best qualification for your high office, and that the extent of your corruptibility is exemplified by the fact that law enforcement officials have already been investigating you for years on corruption allegations.
I'm in no position to judge your difficulties with the justice system; I have faith in the Israeli constitutional state in this matter (although I have to say that I was flabbergasted at how quickly Israel shrugged off the obvious misconduct of its military in the war against Gaza and "fully exonerated" the suspects, to quote the Neue Zürcher Zeitung, a newspaper which is known for its balanced reporting). I also must admit that I greatly admire your life accomplishments -- you went back to school and earned a degree in political science from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The best politicians are not always the smart-looking ones who have strived for nothing other than a position within the party. My German predecessor in office, a former taxi driver, also boasts a comparably unconventional career. In my opinion, a politician's quality is reflected solely by what he has learned from his life, how open he has remained or become in his thinking, and how tolerantly he behaves -- and it is here in particular that I have my problems with you and your positions.
"You Demand They Take an Oath to the Jewish State"
We are not talking about sins of youth. Over the past few years, you have seized virtually every conceivable opportunity for provocations -- and played with fire in the process. Back in 2002, when you were already a member of the government, you seriously proposed bombing Egypt's Aswan Dam if Egypt didn't stick to its peace agreement with Israel. In 2003, when then-Prime Minister Ariel Sharon decided to release 350 Palestinian prisoners, you made the unfathomable comment: "It would be better to drown these prisoners in the Dead Sea." And so on: In 2006, you advocated that Arab Knesset members who held talks with Hamas or Hezbollah be treated like "Nazi collaborators" and executed.
I am sorry, but much of what you are planning is reminiscent of South Africa's apartheid. Your world view, Mr. Lieberman, has been called "fascist" and "racist" by the respected Israeli newspaper Haaretz -- and with good reason, I'm afraid.
Racists are generally not welcome in Berlin; and I have always avoided fanatics. I am receiving you because I still hope that there will be a learning effect -- because there are experts in your country, and in mine, who say that we will see by your political actions that we should not take your verbal slip-ups and statements so seriously. And yet just recently you again spoke of "preparations for war" and said that under no circumstances would you speak with the Syrians about the return of the annexed Golan Heights -- as if there were much else to talk about?

Xen being ported to the ARM architecture by Samsung
Just two weeks ago virtualization.info published an article detailing some of the conditions needed to bring virtualization to the embedded/mobile devices.
Being possible (and profitable) or not, one of the first platform that seems ready to go was KVM.
Now also Xen embraces the portable architectures.
At the end of the annual XenSummit, Samsung officially announced a port of the open source hypervisor to the ARM hardware.
The involvement of Samsung is a major sign of interest from the mobile industry, and the choice to start the porting from ARM a remarkable thing considering the huge diffusion of this processor.
The phone giant is working on Xen for Arm since over a year and the progress made so far can be tracked on this dedicated wiki.
There's also a very interesting presentation titled Secure Xen on ARM: Status and Driver Domain Separation that is worth a read.

Solvency II's strict reporting requirements, that necessitate the need for timely, quality data will significantly increase insurers use of spreadsheets and other End User Computing (EUC) applications. To manage these requirements and ensure compliance, insurers will need to implement robust spreadsheet management systems that quickly and easily identify a situation before it becomes serious. CIMCON Software provides a complete set of Spreadsheet Compliance Solutions. Our suite of products provide the traceability, audit-ability, fraud detection, security and accountability that insurers need under Solvency II for Excel spreadsheets, Access databases and other End User Computing (EUC) applications.
Create an "accurate and complete inventory" of all your spreadsheets, Access databases and other files in weeks with an automated solution that saves time and money while complying with CCAR, DFAST and other regulations.Thursday, April 16, 2015 at 11 am
This webinar will explore the Solvency II Directive requirements in the context of EUC concerns and deficiencies highlighted by the PRA, and act as a guide for companies to assess their spreadsheet risk management system, and readiness for Solvency II compliance.Thursday April 23,2015 2pm GMT 9am ET
November 5, 2014, Boston and London. CIMCON Software, Inc., CIMCON Software, Inc., the recognized global market leader that pioneered spreadsheet management technology, has announced the launch of its two new websites, www.sarbox-solutions.com and www.solvency2compliance.co.uk.Read More

The CIMCON tools have proved invaluable as we work through our "Finance Transformation" project and re-engineer processes around our spreadsheets. By mapping data lineages and spreadsheet links in our financial processes, the tools have identified a large number of redundant spreadsheets for significant savings in time, labor, cost and infra-structure required to manage the EUCs.
We have had tremendous success with CIMCON's XLRisk Software. Unlike other vendors' products that we tested, XLRisk provided us with an enormous amount of valuable data right out of the box, within a few days.
We selected CIMCON's software to not only support our audit and SOX-compliance activities, but to provide an additional resource for aiding our business partners. The software can be used by my team with minimal training and provides a significant amount of functionality to address many of the risks associated with complex spreadsheet files.
CIMCON's SOX-XL provides us with more control and visibility into our high risk spreadsheets at multiple departmental
levels than we have ever had before.
CIMCON's SOX-XL enterprise software has been successfully implemented in our company since 2008. We chose CIMCON after other similar tools did not meet business requirements. Initial Configuration is very simple and straightforward.

Jerry Brown basked in adulation during his whirlwind trip to Paris, and the evening of December 8 figured to offer more of the same. Standing alongside governors of states and provinces from Brazil, Mexico, and Peru, California's governor planned to tout his state's leadership role on global climate policy. The event was one of 21 presentations that Brown delivered during a five-day swing through France during the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
If Portland is to ever become truly world class, it needs to finally atone for (among other transgressions) its role in the ethnic cleansing, internment and internal exile of its entire Japanese American population during WWII. Back then, the Rose City stood out as a hotbed of vicious racism that couldn't get its Japanese Americans - most of whom were American citizens - rounded up andremoved from the city fast enough.
The list of well-known Palestinian hunger strikers exceeds Al-Qeq, Adnan, Allan and Sharawneh and includes many others, not forgetting Samir Issawi, Hana Shalabi, Thaer Halahleh and Bilal Thiab. But what all of these former hunger strikers seem to have in common is their insistence that their battles were never concerned with the freedom of individuals only, but of an entire group of desperate, oppressed and outraged people.
Protests against Monsanto's Roundup - with its poisonous, weed-killing glyphosate - have spread around the globe. An arm of the World Health Organization declared it a probable cause of cancer in 2015. California's Environmental Protection Agency recently decided to label it as such. Environmental groups and activists in Northern California, a region known for its wines, advocate a moratorium on this herbicide as health concerns mount. Roundup is the world's most widely used pesticide.
I have long argued that how candidates for high office speak about the Middle East should be a critical test of their capacity to lead our nation. Since the end of the Vietnam War, we have spent more money, sold or given more weapons, sent more troops, fought more wars, lost and taken more lives, expendedmore political capital and have more vital interests at stake in that region than anywhere else in the world. Yet our candidates have not faced this reality by providing us with a substantial discussion.
The worst worry of a child's school day should be homework. Maybe a lost book, or an argument with a friend. No child's walk to school should routinely involve armed soldiers and fear of sometimes being chased and assaulted by angry adults. But for the Palestinian children who live with their families in the small rural villages that make up the South Hebron Hills, this is how the school day begins. Illegal settlements and outposts isolate and separate their villages and soldiers are a constant in their lives.
The trajectory is becoming clearer day by day. With Hillary Clinton's lead shrinking in Democratic polls, Bernie Sanders is inching towards a possible victory in the primaries, something the mainstream media is slowly coming to grips with. As voters become more familiar with his message, Sanders' poll numbers surge. His ascendancy in polls is particularly remarkable because Clinton is a known quantity, but Sanders does not enjoy the same kind of national visibility.
Pundits and politicos incessantly invoke but seldom define "terrorism." Like the phony "war on drugs," the phony "war on terrorism" promotes economic interests and serves political agendas. Neither war reduces drug use or violence. Nor are they designed to. "Terrorism" - past and present - pervades the US psyche and economy. "Terrorism" - the fear thereof - blunts our minds and shrinks our hearts.
We all know about Monsanto. The agribusiness giant is a huge international corporate entity that wields immense power and courts controversy wherever it operates. We know that Monsanto spends undisclosed millions each year to block elected local governments from introducing and implementing GMO-labeling laws. We know the way that Monsanto has continued to push the use of known carcinogens in increasing volumes on food crops around the world.
At the Democratic town hall on January 25, 2015, Hillary Clinton said: "You know, when I'm actually in office, they say really nice things about me, we have a whole list of the nice things they say. What a good colleague I am. How easy I am to find common ground with. How willing I am to try to find common ground. And then when I run, oh my goodness, it's just unbelievable… I'm going to be just giving them all bear hugs whether they like it or not."

The legendary (or is it mythical?) Dell Streak (Dell Mini 5) is finally almost here. However, what you might not have known is that its screen features the uber-resilient Gorilla Glass, which can take some ultra-heavy punishment. This 5-inch slate beauty is certainly a viable option for anybody who's accident-prone, or anyone who wants to stab their screen frantically with sharp objects. The folks over at Engadget went with the latter, and from the looks of things, this MID's only weakness might be kryptonite. [via Engadget]
Dell Streak's screen has no problem taking a beating

Richardton Dental Clinic
Phone: (701) 974-2118
Address: 200 3rd Avenue West
Richardton, ND 58652-7103
Areas of Practice: Dentists
Choosing the correct dentist is a very essential choice. Having a healthy smile and mouth area could have a major effect on your personal and professional life. When you meet someone new one of the first items you notice is their smile. Choosing the best dentist in Richardton is definitely an important step with regards to looking after your teeth. In this article I will share with you some methods to find the right dentist.
The first thing you must do is decide what is important to you. Are you looking for a dentist in Richardton-58652 to get significant work done or perhaps searching for some standard cleanings? Are you looking to have any cosmetic dental work done? If you're simply looking for basic teeth cleaning treatments then you won't have to be as picky.
The second thing you need to do is have an idea of your would-be dentists' experience and education. It is good to learn about the practice too. Are there several dentists in Richardton, ND who work there or is it just a solo practice. Picking a dentist who specializes in what you're looking for is a good idea. Many dentists will also have pre and post pictures available, and these could give you an idea of the caliber of the work.
The last thing you need to do is look at the price. If the prices are suprisingly low, there is quite possibly a reason. Most of the dental clinics who advertise low prices are simply seeking to do a lot of volume. If you're looking for specialized treatment, this isn't a good thing. You can learn a lot by researching online and also contacting the practice. Remember to ask a lot of questions. Following the advice above will make selecting the most appropriate dentist a lot quicker process. when looking for a dentist in zip code 58652.
Have you used Richardton Dental Clinic? If so remember to leave a precise review.

DETROIT - General Motors Corp. may get rid of some brands, speed the introduction of small cars from other markets and make further white-collar job cuts as it tries to deal with a shrinking U.S. auto market.
A person familiar with the company's discussions said Monday all the options are being considered as GM tries to cope with the dramatic shift in consumer buying habits from trucks to cars and crossover vehicles.
The person asked not to be identified because no decisions have been made.
GM shares dropped briefly Monday afternoon to $9.92, tying their lowest point since Sept. 13, 1954, according to the Center for Research in Security Prices at the University of Chicago.
The price is adjusted for splits and other changes.
It has traded as high as $43.20 in the past year.
GM announced last month it would close four truck and sport utility vehicle plants and boost production of several existing car models. Its sales are down 16.3 percent this year.
Further job cuts could be considered by GM's board of directors when it meets in early August, The Wall Street Journal reported Monday.
Company spokeswoman Renee Rashid-Merem would not comment on potential job or brand cuts, but said the company has made it clear that action would be taken if the U.S. auto market worsened.
"If conditions persist or deteriorate, then we'll continue to take aggressive actions," she said Monday.
GM's stock price tumbled to its previous 54-year low of $9.96 on Wednesday after Merrill Lynch analyst John Murphy wrote in a note to investors that a GM bankruptcy "is not impossible if the market continues to deteriorate and significant incremental capital is not raised."

Cons: none

Best mousepad ever
This review is from: 3M MP114YL Licensed Mouse Pad
Pros: Awesome Mouse pad! Better than the Razer Sphex garbage i ordered 2 weeks ago and now use as a coaster for my coffee, because the Razer straight out sucks! It's like sliding a mouse on sandpaper! Not only does the razer "sphex" make annoying noise it's cheap! This mousepad on the other hand is awesome. Precise surface browsing at a cheap price.. My 2nd one.. The one before this one lasted 3 yrs..
Cons: The glossy surface can tear on the side of the mousepad. That's what happend to my previous one which is why I'm buying this one. Not really sure how it happened...
Other Thoughts: I would pay $30-40 for an identical mousepad like this one that's just a little higher in quality. This thing is awesome

Beware of the hidden cost
This review is from: 3M MP114YL Licensed Mouse Pad
Pros: Colorful mousepad, decent price
Cons: Shipping cost exceed the cost of the items. I ordered several items and they were shipped separately. The hard drives (weigh more, cost more) shipping was $3. The mouse pads (3 of them) were shipped for $21. No longer a decent price.

The one you're looking for
This review is from: 3M MP114YL Licensed Mouse Pad
Pros: Thin
Cons: Surface graphic shows up dull as if the photo had bad lighting. It looks worse than you can see from the product picture online. The choice of graphic is also kinda cheesy. I would've preferred some generic pattern or logo. This is hardly a complaint though, I love this mouse pad to death. To death, I say.
Other Thoughts: Surface material is a thin flexible polymer coating over cloth. It's got a slickness like plastic but it's also got the texture of the cloth coming through, and it's not hard or abrasive.

Other Thoughts: I LOVE this pad.

My Favorite Mouse Pad
This review is from: 3M MP114YL Licensed Mouse Pad
Pros: I love this mouse pad. I work as a computer consultant and have tried almost everything out there. This is my favorite mouse pad. I have ordered it for many of my clients.
Cons: It usually ships from a different warehouse than the rest of my Newegg order. Sometimes the shipping is quite high compared to the usual Newegg price.

PORTLAND — Authorities say two people have been arrested in connection with an attack on a Portland Timbers fan in downtown in April.
The Oregonian reports that 29-year-old Jennifer Marques and 21-year-old Uriel Vargas were arrested by U.S. Marshals in Santa Clara, Calif., on Wednesday.
Authorities say 40-year-old James Decker was in his car when he saw a group of San Jose Earthquakes fans walking toward Jeld-Wen Field to attend a match between Portland and San Jose. Decker told officers he yelled at the group and held up his Timbers scarf. Marques then ran towards the car, hit him in the face and tried to grab the scarf.
Police say Marques fell as Decker began driving away. When he stopped to check on her, a large group of men jumped onto the hood of his car, smashed the windshield and attacked him.
Marques faces assault, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, harassment and disorderly conduct charges.
Police said additional suspects have been identified and they may also face criminal charges.
