Egypt's 'Daily Show'
Giglio, Mike, Newsweek
Byline: Mike Giglio
Bassem Youssef takes on the Salafis with American-style satire.
Two blocks from Tahrir Square, hidden amid the chaos and faded buildings of downtown Cairo, Bassem Youssef's studio projects the optimism of an earlier age. It's housed inside the Cinema Radio building, modeled after Radio City Music Hall and constructed in the 1930s, during the golden era of Egyptian film. After decades of disuse, the complex has recently been revived by Youssef, the Jon Stewart-styled host of a wildly popular satirical talk show, who is fast becoming Egypt's biggest new star. Youssef's likeness now towers over Cinema Radio's entrance on gigantic, Hollywood-esque billboards, a jarring sight for a man who was an anonymous heart surgeon just two years ago, and who says he still cringes self-consciously when he catches a glimpse of himself on TV.
Youssef moved into the studio for the start of his second season late last year. Called Al Bernameg, Arabic for "The Program," the weekly show--which sees Youssef dissecting the country's contentious politics with a Stewart-like mix of impishness and exasperation--started after the 2011 revolution as a YouTube series filmed in Youssef's living room. He had been planning to leave Egypt for a medical fellowship in Ohio, but the videos went viral and landed him a television deal. Al Bernameg is now must-see TV in Egypt, with crowds gathering to watch in cafes as if it were a soccer match.
Egypt, Youssef discovered, is fertile ground for political satire these days. "I think it was just the right moment, doing it the right way," he says of his show. "It all happened so fast."
Yet Youssef's success has also made him a target of Egypt's new political powers, who seem rattled by his popularity and brand of biting humor. Sitting in his office at the Cinema Radio building one recent afternoon, he described various attempts to ruin his reputation and possibly force him off the air: government supporters railing against him on their own TV shows, litigation accusing him of insulting the president--and even of blasphemy. While Youssef has not yet been officially charged with any crimes, he clearly feels the pressure, which may be the point. "Their tentacles are everywhere. They will come after you one way or another," he says. "It's not a joke."
Cinema Radio's proximity to Tahrir Square makes it a fitting venue for Youssef. With Islamists dominating the government, and gaining power in the TV news industry too, the show has become a hit with Egyptians unhappy with their growing influence. Youssef often comes across as a rare voice of reason through his satire. He has also developed into a champion for activists locked in a bitter struggle against President Mohamed Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood. The smell of tear gas, from clashes between protesters and security forces in and around Tahrir, occasionally drifts into the studio.
Morsi and the Brotherhood provide Youssef and his writers with much of their comedic ammunition--as do the combative, religiously righteous Salafi politicians and media personalities now ubiquitous on Egypt's airwaves. "They make wonderful material," Youssef says. "Actually, we get fed up with the repeated good material from the Salafis. Even Stewart wouldn't go after Glenn Beck every day."
Many of the Salafi TV hosts make Beck look staid, calling their opponents everything from atheists to hermaphrodites. Khaled Abdullah, whose histrionics are notorious, was the first to broadcast the YouTube trailer insulting the Prophet Muhammad last fall, and many Egyptians blamed him for the ensuing riots. Youssef has lampooned the hardliners as hypocrites and dismissed them as "merchants of religion." (He is also fond of mocking former supporters of dictator Hosni Mubarak and opposition leader Mohamed ElBaradei.)
But comedy took a dark turn in November when Morsi temporarily assumed autocratic powers that allowed him to push an Islamist-penned constitution through the drafting assembly. …

It is common for Chinese in the P. R. C. to hold the opinion that the management of their commercial organizations is inferior to that of foreign-owned firms in the same industry in China. It is also assumed, by outside observers of commercial activity in the P. R. C., that some aspects of Chinese culture and organizational practices in the planned economic period will negatively affect the functioning of Chinese firms, especially state-owned enterprises, or SOEs (Steinfeld, 1998).
In this study, we investigate these assumptions, contrasting the differences between Chinese and Western approaches to management in a large industrial organization operating in Wuhan (the capital of Hubei province).

Read the bestselling book that inspired the ABC television series.
As America's Mercury Seven astronauts were launched on death-defying missions, television cameras focused on the brave smiles of their young wives. Overnight, these women were transformed from military spouses into American royalty. They had tea with Jackie Kennedy, appeared on the cover of Life magazine, and quickly grew into fashion icons.
Annie Glenn, with her picture-perfect marriage, was the envy of the other wives; JFK made it clear that platinum-blonde Rene Carpenter was his favorite; and licensed pilot Trudy Cooper arrived with a secret that needed to stay hidden from NASA. Together with the other wives they formed the Astronaut Wives Club, providing one another with support and friendship, coffee and cocktails.
As their celebrity rose-and as divorce and tragedy began to touch their lives-the wives continued to rally together, forming bonds that would withstand the test of time, and they have stayed friends for over half a century. THE ASTRONAUT WIVES CLUB tells the story of the women who stood beside some of the biggest heroes in American history.
Editorial Reviews
This is one of those light, tasty summer reads you'll guzzle down like a milk shake."Entertainment Weekly (grade: B+)"
[A] perfect beach read."Entertainment Weekly's "Must List""
Breezy and entertaining. . . [Koppel] deserves credit for recognizing the richness of the subject matter. More than 50 years after its inception, many of us now take the space program for granted, but Koppel reminds readers just how bold and innovative it felt in the Sputnik era, and how mysterious the wilderness of space remains. . . Koppel is chronicling a cultural moment more than any particular person, and in this she excels. The details are superb, from the ham loaves the women cooked to the Virginia Slims they chain-smoked, the fur hot pants and the Pucci dresses they wore, the luaus and shrimp-boil parties they threw, and the Mercury-capsule-shaped community swimming pool they shared."Curtis Sittenfeld, Washington Post"
A remarkable story of perseverance and friendship in a time when women had few rights."The Daily Beast (A "Hot Read" selection)"
A fair and accomplished reporter. . . . Lily Koppel offers a grounded, irresistible and sociable social history. . . . Koppel's book deftly delivers The Wife Stuff. . . . Koppel does an excellent job of capturing a group portrait with enough highlights, low points, sunny spots and shadows for individual features to emerge. . . . The Astronaut Wives Club is wholly and consistently in Koppel's voice: smart, evocative, informed and warm-an electric fireside chat with the women who put men on the moon."Chicago Tribune"
[A] true (juicy) story. Gotta love non-fiction that feels like a beach read: Lily Koppel's The Astronaut Wives Club chronicles the wives of 1960s astronauts. . . . Put down that mystery and pick up some history!"Redbook"
[A] fascinating, behind-the-scenes look at the lives of the women married to the astronauts...Impressive."The Dallas Morning News"
Intriguing, pleasantly gossipy and often-touching. . . . in its light and engaging way, The Astronaut Wives Club is a reflection on the gap between image and reality, and a glimpse of an unstable time when "good wives" were reckoning the cost of that role."Columbus Dispatch"
[An] entertaining and quirky throwback...This is truly a great snapshot of the times."Publishers Weekly (starred review)"
Engaging. . . . [Koppel] hits the mark, crafting an exceptional story that seriously examines the imperfection and humanity of America's heroic astronauts, their wives, and their families. This work will hold vast appeal for armchair historians, and those interested in feminism, women's history, and 20th-century history."Library Journal (starred review)"
Insightful social history with a light touch."Kirkus"
Mad Men fans and history buffs alike won't want to miss a new book about . . . the lives of the astronauts' wives. . . . . We meet the Mercury Seven women in the first chapter of The Astronaut Wives Club, and author Lily Koppel does a nice job of staying close to their stories. By the time you see the women's faces in the pictures, you'll feel like you're a member of the gang. . . . It's hard to believe no one has already written their story, and this reader is glad Koppel finally did."BookPage (A "Nonfiction Top Pick")"
Koppel has launched her talents into another orbit by writing a book about America's space program that is not only smart, but also fun and sexy . . . . The Astronaut Wives Club is a clever and engaging book celebrating a group of women who, today, are often overlooked if not forgotten. It is reasonable to claim that these women held the space program together in its early years. Koppel pays tribute to their emotional stamina in a sympathetic yet unburdened manner. The Astronaut Wives Club will most definitely be embraced in the celebrity-thirsty world that we still live in today; its universal appeal is guaranteed to span generations and demographics of readers. Pack this book along on your summer vacation and you are assured to have a good read, as well as a conversation starter, wherever your spacecraft takes you."Bookslut"
With an eye for colorful detail, Koppel tells the stories of the women behind the astronauts. . . . The book often reads like a novel, energized by each moon mission."Barnard Magazine"
There's humor and heartache... we're transported back in time. This book is a Baby-Boomer's dream and is perfect for anyone who's imagined moving among the stars...[it] will send you over the moon."TDN.com"
The only thing more delicious than the idea for this book is its execution. Come, all you Mad Men lovers, you girl-bonding-opus fans, you amateur historians who've looked under rugs for unlikely heroines...The Astronaut Wives Club rockets us back to the innocence of a unified mid-century America's space race triumphalism and to an unselfconscious sisterhood-is-powerful in the bud-nice things to recall, and maybe take a tiny bit of heed from, in these more sophisticated but much more complicated times."Sheila Weller, author of Girls Like Us"
If you thought the only heroes in the history of NASA were its astronauts; if you thought the all-American family regularly seen in the pages of Life magazine was the full story of those astronauts' private lives; and if you've ever dreamed of supersonic romance, dinners at the Kennedy White House, through-the-roof beehives, a group of friends and neighbors going through this crazy time with you, and a celebrity hero husband who is the most admired man in the nation (yet, could die at any minute) ... then you're ready to sign up for Lily Koppel's thrilling, magical, nostalgic, and eye-opening Atlas rocket of a read, The Astronaut Wives Club."Craig Nelson, bestselling author of Rocket Men and The Age of Radiance"
The Astronaut Wives Club is a fun-loving romp about the devoted women behind NASA's herculean Moon Shot effort. Lily Koppel writes with humor, cunning, and integrity. I found her recounting of the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs riveting. Highly recommend!"Douglas Brinkley, Professor of History at Rice University and author of Cronkite"
The Astronaut Wives Club is spectacular, both in its intimacy and its reach. Lily Koppel pulls out delicious behind the scenes details of the stresses, formalities, pleasures and travails of being the women behind the men on the moon."Karen Abbott, bestselling author of American Rose and Sin in the Second City

The Astronaut Wives Club
A True Story

Introducing the Wives
They had endured years of waking up alone, making their kids breakfast, taking them to school and picking them up, fixing dinner and kissing them good night, promising that Daddy was thinking of them all the time. There had been lonely nights when they fell asleep wondering how they were going to get by on their husbands' measly pay for another month. During tours of duty in World War II or Korea or both, their husbands had nearly become mirages. Navy deployments had taken their men away on six to nine month cruises to the far corners of the Earth. They'd each wait for half a year imagining their man, trying not to forget what he looked like, only to have him come home hungry and tired. They'd miss him even before he left.
Things were no easier in peacetime when he was back home on base serving as a test pilot. There were times when squadrons would lose as many as two men in a week. The wives couldn't do a thing about it but pray for their prowess over the 5 a.m. skillet, hoping they'd cooked their husbands a good breakfast of steak and eggs before they left to go fly, so they'd be alert up in the air. They went to friends' funerals, sang the Navy hymn, and wore white gloves and held a handkerchief to catch the tears. They'd become conditioned to living with the daily fear that their men might not be back for dinner, or ever.
For Marge Slayton, whose wide, pale Irish face and expressive eyes made you want to hug her, it was the sound of a helicopter that sent her into a tailspin of fear and nausea. Hearing the blades of a chopper whirring overhead almost always meant that the men were searching for a plane that had gone down. Long after she stopped living on remote air bases, such as Edwards in the Mojave Desert, the sound of a helicopter still struck fear in her heart.
If a husband was out testing a new experimental plane and didn't come home by five o'clock, almost all of the wives experienced the same waking nightmare, imagining the dark figure of the base chaplain ringing the doorbell, telling her she was now a widow. They had rehearsed that awful scene in their minds, over and over. Such was the life of a test pilot wife. They could not possibly have imagined all that would be in store for them as astronauts' wives.
The United States was well behind in the space race. Soon after launching Sputnik in 1957, the Russians launched Sputnik II with its passenger Laika ("Barker," also known as Little Curly), the Soviet space dog. She was a female stray found on the streets of Moscow (and those godless Soviets let her die in orbit). The United States had responded by trying to send up its own satellite on a Vanguard rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida, but it disastrously exploded on the launch pad, leading the press to call it "Kaputnik." In the following months and years the United States tried to send up bigger rockets, such as the Atlas, but every one of them had exploded before reaching outer space. Now the United States was determined not only to catch up but to pull ahead. It was a national priority in those fervent days of the Cold War.
America's space age was officially announced on April 9, 1959. In Washington, D.C., at the buttercup-yellow Dolley Madison House, across Lafayette Square from the White House, the seven men who'd been chosen to be the nation's first astronauts were officially presented to the world. They sat onstage at a blue felt–draped banquet table under NASA's round red-and-blue logo of a planet and stars, nicknamed the Meatball. Onstage with them was a model of the tiny Mercury capsule on top of an Atlas rocket, which would fall off once the capsule had passed through the Earth's atmosphere and entered outer space. At promptly 10 a.m., the press conference began. T. Keith Glennan took the podium. A natural-born showman who had previously worked at Paramount and Samuel Goldwyn, he was now the administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
"Ladies and gentlemen," he announced, "today we are introducing to you and to the world these seven men who have been selected to begin training for orbital space flight. These men, the nation's Mercury astronauts, are here after a long and perhaps unprecedented series of evaluations which told our medical consultants and scientists of their superb adaptability to their upcoming flight. It is my pleasure to introduce to you—and I consider it a very real honor, gentlemen—Malcolm S. Carpenter, Leroy G. Cooper, John H. Glenn, Jr., Virgil I. Grissom, Walter M. Schirra, Jr., Alan B. Shepard, Jr., and Donald K. Slayton ... the nation's Mercury astronauts!"
The ballroom burst into applause. The Mercury Seven astronauts were instantly beloved, embodying the country's optimism and excitement. Space capsules and rocket launchers and men in outer space; it was a brave new world of shining silver suits, gleaming white space capsules, upward-thrusting rockets, and the awesome void of space. The stuff of science-fiction novels was now coming true. These seven young flyboy test pilots, with their strong jaws and military buzz- cuts, were the best America had to offer. Glennan explained how the seven were chosen out of 110 test pilots considered for the job. Most of all they were healthy small-town Americans. None was older than forty.
Glennan touched on how fierce the competition had been. The Mercury Seven had been exhaustively tested and checked out down to their innermost orifices at the famed Lovelace Clinic in Albuquerque, selected for its secluded location. There were all kinds of "wild theories" about zero gravity, as one NASA doctor later put it. "Some people said the astronauts' hearts would explode, or that their blood pressure would fall to nothing. Some said they would never be able to urinate, and others said they'd never be able to stop urinating." Physicians did a complete medical, psychological, and social evaluation of the astronauts. NASA looked into the backgrounds of not only the men but also their wives.
Since all of America's new astronauts were drawn from the test pilot world, they were military men who would retain their rank while on loan to the new civilian space agency. They would work together now so rank would no longer be important. They wouldn't wear uniforms besides their silver space suits. And they wouldn't only be pilots. Each would be in charge of a particular ingredient of spaceflight, such as the capsule, communications, recovery, or navigation.
When it was question time, the reporters shot up their hands and leaped out of their seats. It turned out they were mostly interested in what the astronauts' wives had to say about their men being blasted into space. It was insanity, wasn't it? Or was it the American dream? Didn't their wives want to bring the country down to earth, say there had been some mistake, no, you cannot send my husband to the Moon? What kind of woman would actually let her husband be blasted into space on a rocket? The newly christened astronauts were in the process of formulating answers when John Glenn piped up.
"I don't think any of us could really go on with something like this if we didn't have pretty good backing at home, really," he said, speaking of his Annie. "My wife's attitude toward this has been the same as it has been all along through my flying. If it is what I want to do, she is behind it, and the kids are, too, a hundred percent."
When the press conference ended, reporters dashed from the room to instruct their editors to dispatch their minions to track down the Astrowives. John Glenn, who would remain very protective of his wife throughout the space race, always did his best to shield her from the press. The other wives, however, were open game. There were seven of them scattered across the country. Air Force and Navy wives, and Annie the lone Marine wife, they had spent the best years of their lives raising kids and supporting their husbands' careers and moving their families from one end of the country to the other, from one dismal base to the next. Now their husbands were astronauts, and they, too, were instant celebrities.
NASA didn't provide the wives with any instructions. No NASA public relations spokesmen contacted them with tips on how to deal with the press that day. The wives would have to handle the reporters the way they'd handled all the ups and downs of service life—with slightly knitted eyebrows, perfectly applied lipstick, and well-practiced aplomb.
The reporters hunted down the wives, showing up at their doorsteps and even chasing them at the grocery store. Out in Enon, Ohio, Betty, new astronaut Gus Grissom's wife, was having a hellish time dealing with the journalists, who were practically crawling through the curtains into her house. Gus had vastly underestimated the new situation the night before, when he'd called from Washington to warn her, "It's a good bet you'll be pounced on by the press." She'd been sick, running a temperature of 102. Her curly brown hair was a mess. So was the house.
Betty Grissom had never thought of Gus as a potential hero. They'd met back in Mitchell, Indiana, where Gus, too short to make the basketball team, had to be satisfied with being the leader of the Boy Scout honor guard. Betty played the snare drum in the pep band. "The first time I saw you I decided you were the girl I was going to marry," he'd tell her.
Betty had put Gus through engineering school at Purdue, slaving away on the 5 to 11 p.m. shift at Indiana Bell in a room full of exhausted working girls plugging in telephone connections. Her graveyard shift gave her husband some quiet to study. She had to work hard in those days because they lived off her pay. Betty didn't have any education beyond high school, but she often joked about her hard-earned "P.H.T." degree—Putting Hubby Through.
She had sweated out Gus's tour of duty in Korea, where he flew an F-86 Sabre on one hundred combat missions. Gus was promoted, but Betty was devastated when he actually volunteered to stay in Korea to fly another twenty-five missions.
After the war, Gus was stationed at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Enon, Ohio. He was now a test pilot, and they were finally living under one roof, with their two little boys. Even though Gus was home, he was often off flying. Betty knew flying was Gus's life, and she supported him without question.
"If I die, have a party," Gus once told her after one of their test pilot friends crashed and burned.
"Okay," she promised. "We'll have a party."
"If something happens to me, I don't want people sitting over here, crying."
In January 1959 Gus had received the top-secret telegram. Gus wasn't much for words, but Betty usually knew before he did what was on his mind. In fact, they both figured that she was a little psychic. That night as the Moon hung over Enon, Ohio, and the two boys were finally in bed, he read aloud the telegram. A couple of sentences long, with the usual confusing military acronyms, it "invited" Captain Virgil I. Grissom to come to Washington, wear civilian clothes, and not utter a word of this to anyone. Neither of them had any idea what it meant, so Betty blurted out the craziest thing that popped into her head. "What are they going to do, Gus, shoot you up in the nose cone of an Atlas rocket?"
She had heard Gus talk about the Atlas rocket, which was being tested in secret at Cape Canaveral in Florida. It wasn't much of a secret, seeing as reporters had watched it blow up from the nearby town of Cocoa Beach. The rocket was unstable, and kept on exploding at liftoff after liftoff. Did men in the government really reckon someone was supposed to ride that thing?
Gus laughed. Soon Betty began to feel like a spy girl in a James Bond thriller. Federal investigators were canvassing Enon making inquiries into the character of the Grissoms: How patriotic was his wife? How many times a week did she make home-cooked meals? Did she drink too much? Did communists regularly appear on their doorstep?
Finally, Gus asked Betty's permission to accept the dangerous mission. She looked at him and said, "Is it something you really want to do?"
"Yes, it is."
"Then do you even need to ask me?"
On the day of the astronauts' press conference, Betty had gone to the doctor and gotten a shot of penicillin. She stopped at the grocery store on the way home to pick up a few things for her and her boys, eight-year-old Scotty and five-year-old Mark, who were still at school. A reporter-photographer team from Life had interviewed her neighbor and tracked Betty's trail to the store. They came right up to her as she was wheeling her shopping cart through the vegetable aisle. Being a polite midwesterner, Betty invited the duo to her home, though they would have followed her through her door whether she wanted them to or not.
As soon as she let the Life fellows in, other reporters and photographers started arriving. They didn't even knock, just marched right in her front door and made themselves at home. Asked all sorts of personal questions, Betty didn't view these invasions as a welcome opportunity to become famous.
Sitting off to the side in her living room, as if the men wanted to photograph her dingy furniture and not her, Betty slung one saddle-shoed foot over the other, hoisted up her bobby socks, and watched suspiciously. Her big round owl glasses almost hid how cute she was. A perpetual worrier, she noted every time one of the men used the toilet (which she scrubbed herself) or plugged heavy equipment into a socket without permission. She didn't like the reporters: she hadn't prepared for this at all.
Betty didn't mind putting up with a lot for Gus. But she expected some common decency.
On the other side of the country, on a windswept shore near her home in Virginia Beach, Louise Shepard had taken her three lovely girls to the beach to escape the reporters who would surely be ringing her bell at home. Louise walked slowly up the shoreline as her blonde-haired girls built sandcastles and waded in the surf.
"Mrs. Shepard?" The press had tracked her down. "We're from Life magazine, Mrs. Shepard. We'd like to take some pictures."
Louise had always played a supporting role to her husband, Alan. She was a Christian Scientist and did not like this invasion of her quiet life but assumed her new role was beginning, and she handled the press gracefully. She smiled tentatively at the two men from Life and told them it would be okay if they took a few pictures. She smoothed out the girls' windblown hair and posed for the photographer.
After Louise let them instruct her to look left and look right, look up toward the sky, where her husband's bird might one day go, she was ready to get out of there. She looked at them kindly, smiled a smile that meant, That's enough, then put two slender fingers in her mouth and whistled. "Laura, time to go."
The men were flummoxed. Louise rounded up her girls. They thought the attention was fun, but they followed their mom to the car. Louise calmly steered toward home, expecting that by now, any press that had come calling would be gone.
She was wrong. When she turned onto her quiet street, lined with wooden houses with pleasant gardens hemmed in by picket fences, she could hardly believe her eyes. There must have been a dozen news trucks in her yard.
"How does it feel being the wife of an astronaut?" The men started flinging questions right away. "How long have you been married? What do your kids think?"
Louise stared into the exploding flashbulbs.
"Do you really want him to go?" asked another newsman. "Aren't you worried he'll be killed?"
That was the question that really disturbed her. Louise had been living with the fear of Alan's death ever since he started test-flying high-performance jets. The death rate for men like Alan was staggering. If Alan didn't call or come home by five o'clock sharp, Louise would start looking at the sky for the ominous black clouds near an air base that rose from a plane crashing to the ground.
Finally, she enveloped her children in her arms and ushered them through the crowd, away from all the attention. Down the street, the neighbors were watching the drama unfold in the Shepards' yard, and a mother told her son to be a dear and go see what all the hoopla was about. He ran back home and announced, "Mom! Mom! You gotta hear this! Mr. Shepard's going to the Moon!"

May 24, 2016
Walton County commissioners recently approved a plan to buy 43-touch screen voting machines. That's the same machines at the center of a hot debate in Tallahassee.
Critics say the machines are eight-times more likely to not record a vote than optical scan equipment. Some of those critics have started a petition drive, trying to force the state to back up touch screen machine votes with a paper trail, something the state says is not necessary.
Walton elections officials say they're aware of these problems and their plans are only preliminary right now.
"We'll just have the amount required to have one in each precinct to meet the ADA requirements of HOVA. We'll still have blended system and we think the majority of our voting will still be done on the paper ballot to the Accuvote machine.
If Walton County does buy the touch screen machines, they won't be used in this year's elections. They would not go into use until after July 2005.

Take-Two Interactive is urging stockholders to reject today's extension by EA of its deadline to tender T2 shares at the $25.74 offering price.
Of the extension, Take Two chairman Strauss Zelnick said:
This is the same highly conditional proposal that EA offered Take-Two stockholders on March 13, 2008, which our Board of Directors thoroughly reviewed and unanimously determined to be inadequate and contrary to the best interests of Take-Two's stockholders. As such, the recommendation of our Board of Directors that stockholders not tender their shares to EA remains unchanged…
Take Two CEO Ben Feder added:
EA's highly conditional offer fails to compensate our stockholders for our exceptional portfolio of intellectual property… In the last several weeks, our strategy and Take-Two's value have been vividly demonstrated by… The record-breaking sales performance of Grand Theft Auto IV… We have also just announced an agreement with Universal Pictures to make BioShock, the universally acclaimed hit video game, into a feature film… EA's proposal undervalues our Company.
GP: The operative phrase around T2 HQ seems to be "highly conditional…"

No Vancouver schools were on the list Tuesday when the U.S. Department of Education announced the winners of the federal Race to the Top District grant.
Vancouver Public Schools, as the lead district in a consortium, had been named a finalist in the previous round of the grant process
The Digital Promise League of Innovative Schools consortium, comprised of districts from several states, had submitted a 1,500-page grant application for creating personalized learning environments.
The consortium's application "was ranked 19th out of 371 applicants," said Steven Webb, Vancouver superintendent. "The U.S. Department of Education made 16 awards. Our application missed the award cutoff by 1.33 points."
A $40 million grant was won by seven King County school districts — the Auburn, Federal Way, Highline, Kent, Renton, Seattle and Tukwila school districts — who competed together as The Road Map District Consortium. The districts, covering 261 schools and 150,000 students, will use the money to support students in many areas, including funds to improve math, science and English Language Learner teaching and leadership approaches.

text: I was planning to buy a smartphone for myself from a long time. Now three days back I read an internet article on Sony Xperia ion which mentioned its specifications and other details. I was impressed and thus I decided to purchase it. After purchasing it yesterday, I started using it but the actual piece didnt impress me even a bit so I returned it to the vendor. The first thing that I was disappointed with was the battery life of this phone. It would consume around 20% battery within half an hour. Has anyone else been disappointed by Sony Xperia ion?

Irremediable describes something that can't be saved, like an irremediable misunderstanding between friends that means the relationship is over.
The adjective irremediable came into English from the Latin word irremediabilis, a combination of in-, meaning "not," and remediabilis, meaning "curable." Heed the wisdom of the Latins, and save irremediable to describe those hopeless situations that simply can't be fixed or put right. For example, if something causes irremediable damage, give up and move on.
Definitions of irremediable
adj impossible to remedy or correct or redress
"an irremediable error"
"irremediable defects of character"
- Antonyms:
capable of being remedied or redressed

New UN Syria envoy tells regime change is needed
BEIRUT The U.N.'s new envoy to Syria told President Bashar Assad's regime on Saturday that change is both "urgent" and "necessary" and that it must meet the "legitimate" demands of the Syrian people, words that will not win the seasoned Algerian diplomat and international trouble shooter any friends in Damascus.
On his first day on the job, Lakhdar Brahimi also called on both sides to end violence in Syria, but said Assad's government bears more responsibility than anyone else to halt the bloodshed. These remarks were seemingly intended to push the Damascus government to ease off on military operations to create a better atmosphere for his peace mission.
His comments, made in New York, came as activists said rebels captured an air defense facility in the east of the country near the border with Iraq. The battle for control of Syria's largest city Aleppo, meanwhile, intensified, with government warplanes and ground forces pounding it with bombs and mortar rounds as rebel fighters fought off troops in the narrow alleys of the city's old quarter.
"I call on parties inside Syria to halt the fighting. Undoubtedly, this call is primarily directed to the government. More than others, it is the duty of governments, under any circumstances and anywhere, not just in Syria, to ensure security and stability for their people," Brahimi told al-Arabiya television in an interview.
"The need for change is urgent and necessary. The Syrian people must be satisfied and their legitimate demands are met," he said.
The latest violence in Aleppo shows that government forces are still struggling to regain full control of the city from the lightly-armed rebels nearly five weeks after they stormed their way into the city in a surprise offensive.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Right activist group said Saturday's clashes in Aleppo were concentrated in several tense neighborhoods - Masaken Hanano, Bustan al-Qasr, Sukkari and Maysar. It reported injuries and damage to buildings, but gave no specific figures. Another activist group, the Local Coordination Committees, said the government was making heavy use of warplanes in attacking rebel areas.
For over a year after the uprising against Assad's rule began nearly 18 months ago, Aleppo and Damascus stayed relatively quiet. But in July, rebels launched a brazen attack on the two cities, capturing several neighborhoods. Government forces have regained most of the Damascus area but are being held to a stalemate in Aleppo, the nation's commercial capital and home to 3 million people.
In the east, the Observatory reported that rebels captured an air defense post in the town of al-Boukamal in the oil-rich province of Deir el-Zour that borders Iraq. The opposition has claimed advances in the area in recent days. A video released by activists showed soldiers purportedly captured by rebels at the post.
The authenticity of the video could not be independently confirmed.
There was no immediate response from the Syrian government to the comments made by Brahimi, who replaced Kofi Annan who quit after his six-point plan including an April 12 cease-fire failed to stop the Syrian civil war.
Brahimi said he had no new ideas to end the conflict and has yet to decide when to make his first visit Damascus in his new capacity.
"I don't have anything new except insisting on the necessity of ending the violence and starting a political process that has credibility and able to bring about peace and stability for the Syrian people," he said.
"A transitional political process is what is needed. There is no disagreement inside or outside Syria that a new situation or a new political framework is needed," he said, adding that since the government and the opposition are not talking to each other, they could use him as the go-between.

The second World Whisky Day™, organised by Aberdeen University student Blair Bowman, is just around the corner. A new date of Saturday 18th May has been chosen for this year's celebrations, a date that Blair hopes one day could even become a national holiday in Scotland.

You may have already heard the exciting news that The Glenlivet have launched a brand new expression without revealing any tasting notes or cask details – even the bottle is blacked out so that you can't see the whisky until you first pour some out into your chosen glass! It's a totally blind release, the first of its kind and it will take a chap of steel to unravel its mysteries.
The Glenlivet Alpha is available now from Master of Malt, and with only 3,350 available worldwide (600 in the UK), make sure to grab one before it's too late – we expect these to sell at a colossal velocity. Once you have your bottle you can begin The Glenlivet's interactive sensory journey to discover its secrets, testing yourself or learning more about Single Malt Scotch Whisky along the way.

After poring over the entries from our recent caption competition, wherein the winner was promised a full bottle of Clynelish whisky from That Boutique-y Whisky Company, we were a bit stumped (or chimped).
We struggled to choose just one entry; there were so many outrageous images to choose from (some more so than others)! We finally caved and decided that though there can only be one champion, there were a few entries that deserved honourable mentions (and drams). Still, there can only be one, and there was one that was truly more evolved (wink!) than the rest.
So, without further ado...

Just before we officially launched 'That Boutique-y Whisky Company' in the UK (and beyond), we packed up the Mini Malt Mobile (aka Ben's car, complete with boxes upon boxes of Scotch whisky, suitcases, and a ukulele), piled in, and took to the motorways and Channel to get to Maltstock, a yearly whisky festival in the Netherlands.
Pitched as "the relaxed whisky weekend" it is—indeed—"relaxing". Akin to a summer camp for whisky enthusiasts, the weekend is packed with music, bonfires, whisky masterclasses, whisky-themed games, a whisky quiz, and a veritable overdose (if that can be said) of food and friends. This was our third year in attendance, and believe me, it lives up to the hype. By the end, we were all a bit like newborn fawns: blinking in the sun and staggering gingerly about the place. We've got a flock of photos below to give you, dear reader, a taste of some of the activities to be had. A picture is worth a thousand words, they say…

As Ian McCulloch certainly didn't say:
We've been up to Filliers terrace,
To see what's a-happening...
They're mixing up the medici-i-i-ine (Note – not medicine #drinkaware)
And we did like the taste!
The Filliers family have been making jenever near Deinze, not far from Ghent, for more than five generations dating back to the 19th century. More recently, they became the producers of the first double still Belgian whisky, and even more recently, Master of Malt made their fine products available in the UK retail market for the first time ever!
Zonder dank. (That's Flemish for you're welcome.)

After our many years in the wonderful business of whisky purveyance, it's not often that we come across something that really takes us aback. Today, however, we have the rare honour of announcing a distilling phenomenon hitherto unknown: A heady blend of spirit and science, seasoned with a shake of quackery and a dose of credulity...

It's finally here. Yes, folks, Joel Harrison and Neil Ridley have raised the anchor and set sail to release the third instalment in their A-Z of whiskies series. This time, they took to the high seas (or high rails?) to celebrate their first crack at creating a blend. And what a blend it was! It stands up to water, cocktails, and rush-hour traffic on the London Circle Line.
Our journey began with an introduction by two salty dogs, dressed to the nines in seafaring garb and presenting us with a fractured history of the London tube. Were there sea shanties, you ask? But of course!

It's an exciting one, this...
It's not often that we get involved with Exclusive, Single-Cask bottlings direct from the distilleries themselves, as there's generally much better value to be had from independent bottlings. We do lots of them instead. Lots and lots.
Every now and then though, something comes along that wouldn't usually be available on the independent market.
This is one such bottling. A (very, very rare) Peated Balblair. Well, I say that – it's actually a Balblair that's been stored in a cask previously used to hold Peated Whisky. Sort of Peated through the medium of cheating. A Cheaty-Peaty whisky if you will.

MLB Team Report - Pittsburgh Pirates - INSIDE PITCH
The Pirates are in rarified air for a franchise that has had 20 consecutive losing seasons.
The Pirates have played at a .600 clip this season, taking a 54-36 record into Friday night's opener of a three-game series against the New York Mets. The team is in the thick of the National League Central race and holds the lead in the National League wild card standings.
The most surprising part of the Pirates' success is they have done so without getting much from their offense.
Hitting figured to the team strength entering the season. Instead, the Pirates lead the major leagues in least runs allowed, giving up just 3.37 a game, but are 25th in runs scored with just 3.87 a game.
"We've got a number of individuals that probably haven't met expectations that we projected going in," manager Clint Hurdle said. "We've got a few that have. I think we all like our team, we are committed to working hard every day to getting a little bit better and from the offensive side the guys are mindful. They're not going to panic. That's not a good state or place for anybody to be."
Though they went an encouraging 5-for-9 with runners in scoring position Wednesday night in a 5-0 victory over Oakland that snapped a four-game losing streak, the Pirates have been woeful in clutch situations. They were just 3-for-27 with runners in scoring position during the losing streak while scoring a total of six runs in the four games.
The Pirates are hitting just .232 with runners in scoring position this season, including .219 with two outs. Hurdle, though, is confident those figures will rise because his hitters' mindsets are good.
"Go up there with not, 'I got to,' but, 'I get to,' " he said. "That's one thing we talk about. Your frame of mind's important. If your success is tied to a base hit, that's a very challenging place to put yourself. Your confidence is your confidence. I believe we're in that place. We're not getting the results we want now. As long as attitude, effort, preparation and focus are there, we'll eventually get the results we want."
MLB Team Report - Pittsburgh Pirates - NOTES, QUOTES
STREAK: Won one
NEXT: Mets (Jeremy Hefner 4-6, 3.39) at Pirates (Charlie Morton 1-2, 3.38)
--3B Pedro Alvarez was added to the National League team for the Home Run Derby on Monday as an injury replacement for Colorado outfielder Carlos Gonzalez. Alvarez has 23 home runs and will join Bobby Bonilla (1990), Barry Bonds (1992), Jason Bay (1995) and Andrew McCutchen (2012) as Pirates who have competed in the Derby. Alvarez, who is a New York native, was selected to the team by Mets third baseman David Wright, who is the hometown captain for the NL team at Citi Field.
--RHP Jared Hughes, who has been on the disabled list since June 6 with right shoulder inflammation, was to begin a rehab assignment with the GCL Pirates on Thursday, but the game was rained out.
--INF Josh Harrison, who was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday when 2B Neil Walker was placed on the disabled list, is likely to start Friday night in the opener of a three-game series against Mets RHP Jeremy Hefner. In his last 10 games with Indianapolis, Harrison hit .378 with a .417 on-base percentage, a .756 slugging percentage and eight doubles. Manager Clint Hurdle wants to get Harrison's hot bat in the lineup but did not want the left-handed hitter facing Oakland LHP Tommy Milone on Wednesday night.
--RHP Gerrit Cole could be optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis or Double-A Altoona because the Pirates will not need a fifth starter again until July 24 at Washington. They have an off day today and the four-day All-Star break next week. Cole has gone 4-2 with a 3.68 ERA in his first six major league starts. However, sending him to the minor leagues would enable Cole to keep pitching on a regular turn. Just as important to the cost-conscious Pirates, it likely would ensure he would not attain status as a "super two" arbitration player, meaning he would not be eligible for salary arbitration until after the 2016 season rather than 2015.
--1B Garrett Jones gets the majority of starts as the left-handed-hitting part of a platoon with right-handed-hitting 1B Gaby Sanchez. However, there have been hints that the Pirates might start giving Sanchez some starts against right-handed pitchers in place of Jones. In his last 36 games, Jones has hit just .226 (26-for-115) with three home runs and nine RBIs. That skid dropped his batting average to .255.
--C Russell Martin batted cleanup Wednesday night for the first time since June 6, 2009, and went 1-for-4 with an RBI in the Pirates' 5-0 win over Oakland. Martin became the fifth Pirates hitter to bat No. 4 in the order this season. 1B Garrett Jones has started 59 games as the cleanup man while 1B Gaby Sanchez has 24 starts, 3B Pedro Alvarez has five and CF Andrew McCutchen has one.
--RHP Francisco Liriano (9-3) won his fourth straight start Wednesday night as the Pirates beat Oakland 5-0, allowing four hits and one walk in seven innings while striking out six. Liriano has allowed just four runs in 28 2/3 innings over his last four starts for a 1.26 ERA. He also continued his polar opposite performance against the Athletics, as he has allowed one or no runs in six of his 13 career starts vs. Oakland but five or more runs four times. "I just tried to stay ready as I could during the delay, keep moving around and staying loose," Liriano said. "I was ready to go when the game started. I just wanted to come out like any other game, pound the strike zone and keep my team in the game."
--RHP Charlie Morton (1-2, 3.38) will start Friday night against the Mets in the opener of a three-game series. Morton lost his last start against the Cubs on July 6, allowing two home runs to Chicago LF Alfonso Soriano. Morton had gone six straight starts without giving up a homer, dating to last season. Morton is 0-2 with a 4.50 ERA against the Mets in five career games, including four starts.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "What he feels is more important than what I'm seeing, but he's in a very comfortable position now. His confidence level has been good. He's getting older, smarter, more experienced. He's putting his foot down and has become more of a bully in the box." -- Manager Clint Hurdle, on 3B Pedro Alvarez.
MLB Team Report - Pittsburgh Pirates - ROSTER REPORT
--2B Neil Walker (strained right oblique) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to July 7.
--LHP Wandy Rodriguez (left forearm tightness) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to June 6. He started playing catch June 13 and threw off a mound June 18. He made a rehab start June 23 for Triple-A Indianapolis, but he subsequently felt soreness in his arm. He received a platelet-rich plasma injection July 1 and will not throw for three weeks.
--RHP Jared Hughes (right shoulder inflammation) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to June 6. An MRI found no structural damage in the shoulder, and he started a throwing program June 28. He reported to the Pirates' spring training facility July 4 to continue his rehab. He was to begin a rehab assignment with the GCL Pirates on July 11, but the game was rained out.
--RHP James McDonald (right shoulder discomfort) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to May 1. He made two rehab starts for Double-A Altoona and four for Triple-A Indianapolis but still felt pain in his shoulder. He was examined July 2 by team orthopedist Keith Meister, who concurred with the Pirates' medical staff that McDonald has no structural damage in the shoulder. McDonald was told not to throw for two weeks.
--RHP Jeff Karstens (right shoulder inflammation) went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to March 22, and he was transferred to the 60-day DL on May 27. Karstens underwent surgery June 7 to debride his shoulder, and he won't be able to begin a throwing program until mid-September, which makes a return this season almost out of the question.
--RHP Phil Irwin (nerve inflammation near right elbow) was recalled from the minors and placed on the 60-day disabled list June 3. He underwent surgery on his right elbow July 3 to reposition the ulna nerve and will likely miss the remainder of the season.

.- According to recent nationwide opinion polls, support for Roe v. Wade is waning and the majority of Americans would support restrictions on abortion, observes Deirdre McQuade, director of planning and information at the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishop's Secretariat for Pro-Life Activities.
McQuade notes that "public opinion has moved progressively away from supporting unqualified access to abortion."
"This is a real sign of hope," she said, "for both women and their unborn children." McQuade is hopeful this trend will continue.
A May 4 Harris poll found that support for Roe v. Wade has dropped below 50 percent nationally for the first time in 30 years. It also showed that 44 percent of Americans said they would support a law in their own state like South Dakota's, which bans all abortions except to save the mother's life.
"An April 2006 survey by the Polling Company, Inc./WomanTrend found that 54 percent support limiting legal abortion to the extreme circumstances of rape, incest, and to save the life of the mother," McQuade said. An additional 21 percent would limit abortion to the first trimester. Roe v. Wade allows for abortion at any time throughout pregnancy.
In March, a Zogby poll found majority support for abortion regulations such as informed consent laws for women and parental notification laws, with 69 percent favoring such measures for girls under 17 years old.

Bloggers have already begun tackling the Wall Street Journal's "omnibus" article about expansive domestic surveillance by the National Security Agency (NSA). While many posts are providing large excerpts thanks to the Wall Street Journal's onerous paywall (which actually seems to be disabled for the story at the time of this writing), bloggers are reaching similar conclusions:
The Wall Street Journal's detailed article on domestic spying (Wall Street Journal, NSA's Domestic Spying Grows As Agency Sweeps Up Data (March 10, 2008), p. A1) provides critical detail and confirmation of the NSA's wholesale acquisition of domestic communications, and helps us understand the Administration's word games. It also shows that the Administration is relying upon erroneous views of electronic communications privacy law, including some that contradict the Department of Justice's own published interpretations.
BoingBoing TV features a nice interview with Mark Klein and me, done just before the Pioneer Awards. Hilariously, it features an ad by Verizon.
Update: You can find a detailed analysis of claims made in the article here.
The Wall Street Journal's front page today contains an important article that confirms key elements of EFF's suit against AT&T. Officials quoted in the article acknowledge a massive domestic spying operation run by the NSA, and confirm that the program includes the wholesale copying of entire data streams by the telecoms, as well as the existence of a "domestic network of hubs" to coordinate the spying in different cities.
