The unapologetically honest documentary, "Fire in the Blood" commits to its name while exposing the horrendous consequences multinational pharmaceutical corporations created by withholding life-saving antiretroviral medications from third world countries.
"Fire in the Blood" presents a raw look at HIV and AIDS in Africa. Photo: Zoriah.
"This isn't a depressing film," director Dylan Mohan Grey promised the audience. "The title was carefully chosen."
This film won't make you cry, but it will make you angry—it will fill your blood with fire.
The devastation of HIV/AIDS has taken the lives of nearly 30 million people. In 2000, North American HIV/AIDS deaths went down to 20,000, while more than 2 million died in Africa.
The documentary exposes the jaw-dropping reality that millions of deaths could have been prevented. Instead, pharmaceutical giants essentially held hostage the drugs that could save countless lives.
Mohan Grey presents his years of work creating "Fire in the Blood" with a courageous amount of dignity using the terms, "a crisis of humanity" rather than what could easily have been more politically provocative.
Notable public figures including Bill Clinton and Joseph Stiglitz voiced their stance in this devastating reality.
Pfizier, one of the top pharmaceutical giants, made $1 billion in 2000 from the sales of Fluconazole, an antiretroviral drug sold at $40 a pill. This and many other stark statistics were a large emphasis in the documentary. The power of big pharmaceutical companies is so astronomical that millions of lives have been affected by their selfish choices.
Despite the sobering facts, the film leaves room for light and optimism. The reality is still terrible—miracle drugs are available and not always accessible. Yet in the viewing of the film itself, an awareness is being reawakened and spread to the masses.
"Don't let there be a sequel," the final words seen on the screen solidify the message that we can't let this happen again.
Upcoming screening:
Jan. 25, 7 p.m., Holiday Village Cinema 4, Park City

Minister Reynders condemns the attack on Doctor Mukwege
Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs Didier Reynders was horrified to learn of the attack on the Congolese Doctor Mukwege and his family. He firmly condemns this cowardly act and expresses his condolences to the family of the guard who lost his life in the attack.
Didier Reynders salutes the efforts of Doctor Mukwege, who has long been engaged in his community and on behalf of women in the Kivu region who are victims of sexual violence. It is primarily thanks to the efforts of the Doctor that crimes of sexual violence in the Kivu region, and the unbearable suffering they cause, have been brought to the attention of the international community.
Sexual violence is unacceptable. The fact that an effort was made to silence the Doctor by means of this attack, so that the perpetrators can continue to terrorise the population unhindered, cannot be tolerated.
Minister Reynders calls on the Congolese government to do everything in its power to guarantee the safety of Doctor Mukwege, to bring the attackers to justice, and not to turn a blind eye to the unbearable suffering of the population.
For Didier Reynders, this attack reiterates how important it is to re-establish the rule of law in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The Orange County Register Crossword Submission Guidelines
The Orange County Register, one of Southern California's leading daily newspapers, welcomes crossword submissions from both new and established constructors. Crosswords appear in the paper's weekly associated (community) newspapers across Southern California; combined, these weekly papers have a larger total circulation than The Register's Sunday edition. Puzzles should be top-quality 15 x 15 crosswords that have never been published before, including on the Internet. Author bylines (in boldface type), photos, and mini-bios appear with the puzzles, and constructors receive copies of their published puzzles.
Basic Guidelines
Puzzles submitted to The Orange County Register must be thematic 15 x 15 crosswords and adhere to all the standard grid rules (rotational symmetry, no 2-letter words, no unchecked squares, and no isolated sections). The maximum word count is 78, and the maximum block count is 42. These limits may be slightly exceeded if the theme warrants doing so.
Puzzles must be consistent and have at least three theme entries, though constructors are strongly encouraged to include more. Themes relating to Southern California, Orange County, California government and pop culture, etc., are especially welcomed but not required. Puzzles with the same word repeated in several phrases or overused themes (colors, animals, etc.) will not be accepted unless they are executed in an original way. Please query me before constructing a puzzle with a California- or Orange County–related theme; please also query before submitting a rebus or puzzle with a particularly unusual theme. Your query should list the theme entries with clues and include a brief description of the puzzle.
Nonthematic Fill
Please do not include any references to death, drugs, sex, or diseases in your theme, fill, or clues. Use moderation with edgy pop-culture references—in general, try to stick with familiar words, phrases, and names. Keep uninteresting obscurities (such as African antelopes and all the various shorebirds) and crosswordese (e.g., ESNE) to a minimum. Please do not include more than two partial phrases (I LEFT, IN THE, etc.) per puzzle. Partial phrases may not be longer than five letters. Also, only the most common variant spellings and foreign words are acceptable. Finally, be sure not to include a word or part of a word more than once in a puzzle—for example, if you use the entry SUN RAY, SUNLIGHT may not also be used.
Please make the clues at about a Monday to Wednesday New York Times difficulty level. Try to use original clues wherever possible and avoid using more than a few one-word clues per puzzle. Be sure to include an appropriate balance of straight definition, fill-in-the-blank, and easy punny and question mark clues.
Only e-mail submissions will be considered. Please send your puzzle to David Steinberg at email@example.com as a Crossword Compiler (preferred), Across Lite, Crossdown, or CrossFire file. If you can't send your puzzle in any of these formats, type the puzzle into the body of your e-mail using periods as blocks and include the clues below the puzzle. I will try to respond within two weeks, though that may vary depending on how busy I am. If you haven't heard back after two months, please send me a follow-up e-mail.
Payment of $50 will be made upon publication.

|Route Climbed: South Climb Trail Date Climbed: April 1997
|This one was a steep one. There was a tad bit of snow on the summit. Gorgeous view! This may have been more strenuous than St Helens, I still haven't decided!
|Posted Jan 15, 2006 10:48 am
|Route Climbed: West Ridge via Hot Spring Road Date Climbed: 8/7/2004, 7/10/2005
|This is one of my favorites in the george. I went solo last year and had views of the entire Gorge and surrounding Mountains. This year I took three other people and was clouded in. Still an excellent day hike in almost any weather.
|Posted Jul 12, 2005 12:42 am
|Route Climbed: PCT/ South Trail Date Climbed: May 8, 2005
|We started at the Bonneville dam trailhead, caried overnight gear and camped at 2900 feet on the Southwest ridge. The sky was overcast in the evening with Mt Hood ocasionally peaking thru. After a steady rain all night we summitted in the morning with amazing views of the gorge shrouded in rings of fog.

|Route Climbed: southside route. Date Climbed: June 9th, 1985
|A great article was published in the Oregonian in May, '85, written by Don and Roberta Lowe, of guidebook fame, describing this climb and including a great photo of it. Had to go up there at my first opportunity and give it a try. Didn't know then about the much shorter powerline trail so got the full 14 miles+ this time. Took my 10 year old and really wore him out, to the aggravation of his mom.
Great views, a real pucker looking down the cliffs, climbed it about 10 times since and it never loses it's appeal.
|Posted Oct 25, 2004 8:48 pm
|Route Climbed: standard Date Climbed: 9/20/04
|Parked about 1 mile past Bonneville Hot Springs Resort where the road ends and gravel road begins. About 8 miles Round trip from here. Not much of a view from the top as it was socked in with clouds and kinda windy. Nice trip though, didn't see another person the whole time.
|Posted Sep 21, 2004 12:15 am
|Route Climbed: Pacific Crest Trail Date Climbed: May 1, 2004
|Cut out some miles by parking by the lake under the power lines and walking up the road to the trail crossing.
The trail going up the grassy field to the top was closed due to erosion and sensitve plant life, so we had to take the ridge trail to the top. Showed me how out of shape I really am.
The bugs sucked.
|Posted May 4, 2004 6:00 pm
|Route Climbed: Cross-country on the South Side Date Climbed: January 11, 2004
|Starting under the powerlines, the snow was deep and covered with ice from the trailhead to the summit. It was windy with only occassional views on top.
|Posted Jan 13, 2004 6:09 pm
|Route Climbed: NW Ridge Date Climbed: April 5, 2003
|Great conditioning hike. Very mellow along the PCT, trail to ridge was hard to follow due to unusual amounts of snow. Not much of a view on top with driving snow all around.
|Posted Jun 10, 2003 7:07 am
|Route Climbed: South Trail Date Climbed: May 11th, 2003
|Left the bonneville trailhead with mostly sunny skies. as soon as i left the pacific crest trail and it got steep the rain came, which made things a little slippery. needless to say there wasn't much of a view from the top, but the cliffs were still impressive looking. I took the trail down on the north side of the mountain to make a loop. shortly after rejoining the pacific crest trail the rain stopped.
|Posted May 12, 2003 12:00 am
|Route Climbed: Variation on the South Trail Date Climbed: April 2001
|My wife and I did this with a group of Mazamas. Don't remember the exact details, but we started not at the the "proper" trail head but rather near some power lines. This cut the hiking distance (though not the elevation) considerably. Great steep scramble near the top with excellent views of rock faces.
|Posted Apr 29, 2003 9:49 am
|Brian Jenkins
|Route Climbed: South Trail Date Climbed: April 27, 2003
|Did this as a training and conditioning hike. Long approach trail and for the first mile or so I had to keep stepping around groups of fire-bellied newts on the trail. They looked like they were circling each other for a fight. Then on the middle part of the trail I had to sidestep groups of big green slugs doing the same thing. Looked like a Slug Battle Royale. Title fight was Mucous Toe Miller vs Phil the Phlegm-inator (see picture) but each round takes two days so I decided to keep on hiking. Hmmm, I wonder if they were really fighting though. This IS Spring and maybe I was just witnessing Nature's porn.
At the 6 mile mark the climb begins and it got steep real quick but wasn't that bad. Surely not enough to warrant the big red DANGER tape at the turnoff for the summit trail.
Made the summit and was sitting on the cliffedge enjoying the sun and tranquility when a large group of Mazamas suddenly converged on me. One of them even said "So much for your solitude." I walked the summit ridge to the north side through the last remaining patches of snow and then headed back down the loop trail. Unfortunately, a lot of the big slugs didn't survive the Mazamas group and there were lots of globs of green goo on the trail on the way back. Nice, eh?
Long day but had great weather and views of the Gorge, Hood, Adams and St. Helens, and, got in some good training.
-- 11/20/04 -- went hiking on the south side, a really neat waterfall is down there and we hiked up to the base of the cliffs at the crack in the right side. No canyon found though, it is a dead end unless you can find a way to protect a crackless wet dripping overhung groove. Very steep scree too and slippery.
Did this one time, probably about 2009 or 2010 with Ian and Luna.
Did again a couple years later, up the old east route but it's blocked off and overgrowing now.
Then 4/5/15 did solo, up and down in 4 hrs 17 minutes, up the old east route, very overgrown and not worth it anymore to do. Trail disappears a few times and you are crawling through tunnels of saplings. Only good thing about it was a group of about 8 kids followed me. I lost them quickly as they didn't know what they had gotten into. I feel confident that I taught them a valuable lesson about not following somebody else just because you think they know what they are doing. ;- )

Fashioned with as much form as function, today's high-style floor lamps are standouts in rooms of all types and styles.
SAVE: VÄTE Floor Lamp, $39.99, Ikea, Draper
SPLURGE: Mode Floor Lamp by Baker $5,385, CCG Howells, SLC
We love floorlamps. In the current issue of Utah Style & Design, designer Kelly Wallman with San Francisco Design gave us pointers as to why they are so useful and stylish for today's décors:
Have low ceilings? Floor lamps add visual height to a room. Their verticality draws the eye upward.
Need light in the center of the space? In vogue during the 70s and enjoying a big comeback, arc floor lamps deliver light to the center of a space, much like a hanging fixture, but in a much more contemporary and easy-to-install manner.
Short on space? Floor lamps are ideal for tight spaces where there is no room for an end table, or if you need a small surface for a glass or book, choose a floor lamp with a small, built-in table.
Need to read? Floor pharmacy lamps can be unobtrusively positioned near the arm of a chair or sofa for directional task lighting.

Update: It's over—anti-gay dietary activist Trestin Meacham apparently swayed the highest court in the land with his non-eating streak. Meacham broke his fast with yogurt following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to stay same-sex marriage until the state can appeal to the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver.
Meecham told reporters that he was seeking to roll back same-sex marriage by following in the foot steps of other activitsts and starving himself—apparently bullying the Supremes into a stay was enough.
For more than 12 days Meacham had been ingesting only water and multivitamins.
He explained to a Channel 4 reporter: "You can start a blog and you can complain on social networks until you're blue in the face and nothing will happen—but actions speak louder than words and I'm taking action."
Gay rights advocates fear Meacham may be the beginning of a wave of solidarity on Utah's political right.
Imagine the impact of Eagle Forum's Gayle Ruzicka and Paul Mero of Sutherland Institute jumping aboard this powerful starving-to-stop-gay-marriage juggernaut? And will they stop with Utah's ban or continue until a U.S. Constitutional amendment passes to prohibit same-sex marriage?
It's certainly cheaper than taking it to the courts.
Finally: Somebody please get a web camera on Trestin.

BOULDER - Non-conference basketball schedules are all about preparing for the real thing - conference play. If a team can improve game-by-game, that's good. If it can remain unbeaten while improving, all the better.
The University of Colorado women's basketball team is doing both. The Buffs used a 9-0 run midway through the second half to pull away from Wyoming and win 68-59 on Wednesday night at the Coors Events Center.
"When you're not in your conference schedule, you want as many different scenarios as you can get," said CU coach Linda Lappe, whose team went to 5-0 and 3-0 at home this season. "We're starting to get that with this year's schedule . . . . I feel we'll be prepared for whatever we see down the road."
What the Buffs saw Wednesday night from the previously unbeaten Cowgirls (4-1) was an opponent that runs its offense efficiently, was strong on the boards, goes to the rim often and still was shooting just over 40 percent from beyond the arc.
"We've seen a lot of good things from good teams," said CU senior guard Chucky Jeffery. "It's good because in the Pac-12 we'll be seeing a lot of different things from different things . . . (Wyoming) has some good three-point shooters. They ran a lot of pick-and-pops, which we haven't seen a lot, but we adjusted and got the win."
Jeffery's contributions were major; she recorded her 21st career double-double with 21 points and 10 rebounds in what Lappe called "kind of her breakout game so far . . . she's eased her way back in. It was good to see her play and get into her flow. She was more aggressive and we needed her to be."
The Buffs also got double-figure scoring performances from Arielle Roberson (14) and Jen Reese (10), with Lexy Kresl adding eight.
With the exception of a 39-39 draw on the boards, CU held a statistical advantage in every other category. The Buffs outscored the Cowgirls 34-20 in the paint, 27-9 off of turnovers, 13-6 in second-chance points, 8-0 on fast breaks and 22-12 in bench productivity.
"Wyoming's a good team," Reese said. "I give them props . . . they came out and played their game. But we came out and got the win."
Lappe was particularly pleased with her team committing just 12 turnovers and converting the visitors' 18 errors into 27 points. "We made their turnovers count," Lappe said, adding that her team regained its composure in the second half and turned the ball over only five times.
Although far from perfect, the Buffs led most of the first half and were up 31-26 at intermission. They didn't shoot exceptionally well (40.6 percent) from the field, but their defense on the Cowgirls compensated for that.
"We came out a little slow," Jeffery said. "We were just not hitting our shots, not recognizing to get the ball inside. After we figured it out, we got it going."
Wyoming went almost 5 minutes between field goals to open the game and at the 5-minute mark, the Cowgirls had hit only two field goals and trailed 10-4. But the Buffs encountered their own cold spell shortly thereafter and the visitors quickly caught up.
The Cowgirls tied the score at 15-15 on a three-pointer by Kaitlyn Mileto, who scored a team-high 16 points, then went up 18-15 - their first lead since 2-0 - on another trey by Ashley Sickles. But a 9-4 run to close out the half gave the Buffs their five-point advantage at intermission.
The Cowgirls took a pair of three-point leads early in the second half before the Buffs settled down and took control with their 9-0 run. Trailing 43-42, CU got a three-pointer from Kresl, a conventional three-point play from Roberson and a three-ball from Brittany Wilson to go up 51-43 with 11:55 to play.
When that 9-0 spurt extended to 15-4, the Buffs were in command. Wyoming pulled as close as four points a couple of minutes later, but never threatened again. CU increased its lead to as many as 14 points in the final 7 minutes.
Teams' identities change yearly, and Lappe said this CU team's second-half focus is much better than last: "We've come out with the right focus in the second half and we have some confidence in us. I think that is where your experience comes into play. We have experienced players on the floor that have been in those situations, and they've been able to provide whatever the needs, at whatever point. I think you definitely saw that tonight."
The Buffs travel to Illinois on Saturday, with the next home game coming on Wednesday, Dec. 5 against Colorado State in the first game of a men's-women's doubleheader against the Rams. The women's game tips at 5:50 p.m.
NOTE: Junior guard Ashley Wilson will undergo arthroscopic knee surgery on Thursday and be sidelined for two to three weeks. Lappe said the Buffs missed Ashley's energy off the bench Wednesday night, but she was counting on someone else stepping up to fill that void. "I thought (freshman) Lauren Huggins did a great job coming in and providing a spark that we needed," Lappe said.

I love the classic children's stories by Beatrix Potter. One of my favorites is The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin, about a naughty squirrel who loses his tail. Little Squirrel Nutkin has been the inspiration for my latest nursery design. With rich browns and cool greens, this nursery is perfect for any tiny fall addition.
I love the idea of framing a print or two from The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin to be used as artwork.
This adorable block print pillow would be perfect tucked into the corner of a glider.
This is absolutely the most adorable fall bedding that I've come across. It is playful, bold, and I love the contrast of the dark brown against the beige background.
This squirrel lamp is whimsical and so unique. He will be the perfect assistant for late night feedings or diaper changes.
Clocks are so often overlooked in a nursery, but are essential for a nursing mom. I love this modern squirrel—so cute!

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 15 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Connie888 Taste Great I love Oebel Stollen, all flavors and finding it in World Market has been a Godsend! However, there is a flavor they do not carry and I had to go online to order from Germany. Which is the RUM flavor stollen. Last year the day before Christmas Eve, I went to HEB-Central Market and found it there. So now I'll buy the gift stollens at World Market and the Rum Stollen from HEB. Since World Market sells wine, I wish they would consider selling Rum stollen!!! December 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MamaB23 Great German Treat This is one of my favorites. I travel to Germany often and look forward to this seasonal treat each year. October 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by mary coleman orange stollen EXCELLENT ORANGE STOLLEN December 22, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rooha just love them....... I wait all year long to go buy stollen cakes when the holliday season begins. This year I bought several of them before Christmas. Today, after Christmas sale, I bought another 6 of them to freeze and have them later during the year so that I donot have to wait till next season to eat them!! December 26, 2009
Rated 5 out of 5 by Garden Queen Oebel Stollen I chose the apple stolen and was pleasantly surprised. It was very moist and yet not real sickening sweet with a lot of powdered sugar. I would definitely recommend this for a nice holiday treat. December 23, 2009
Rated 5 out of 5 by Hase Oebel Stollen I prefer the Original flavor. This year was the first time I tried the Apple/Marzipan and the Cranberry but didn't care for them as much. We love to just slice it and put butter on top. I am German and every year in early November I check with our local store if the Oebel Stollen came in and when it does I buy several of them. We usually eat them up quickly, so I have to go and buy more. I always make sure I have one left for Christmas morning. To me Christmas without a Stollen, that's just not right. December 10, 2009
Rated 5 out of 5 by shortie Cranberry is delicious I bought the cranberry for a gift. The recipient liked it so much she called today to ask me to ship her 6 more. Her neighbor, who was born in Germany, liked it better than the stollen her brother overnighted to her from Germany and she said, "It is the best Stollen she has ever had." The neighbor requested me to ship one for her as well. November 23, 2009
Rated 5 out of 5 by Niece As good as it looks! Great for a light dessert! November 19, 2009

- Stakeholder type: Major Group
- Name: WPC Greenskills
- Submission Document: Not available
Full Submission1. National commitments should be presented and compared graphically. My country, Australia, has set up a Department of State with outcomes under four headings or programmes:
Australia's future.png
See slide 4 of my attached presentation to the 2011 Low Carbon Earth Summit in Dalian, China
2. Clear and well-organized presentations only point to, but do not necessarily describe lasting outcomes. For example, after two years of the present minority Government finally introducing the Carbon Price legislation (passed the first of two Houses of Parliament in October 2011) , the outcome is threatened with immediate repeal when the Opposition party gains Government in the next two years.
3. Encouraging energy efficiencies in industries and trades is especially important in the majority of countries whose alternatives to fossil fuel energy sources are generally well below 10% of total energy (see slide 3).
4. Every Job is capable of contributing to sustainability, of becoming a green Job. Most young people in Australia ?Would prefer to work for an employer who practices environmental sustainability ? (see slide 12) however knowledge across industries and trades of general sustainability measures in the workplace (slide 13) is not matched by industry-and trade specific training in sustainability best practice.
5. In Australia 11 Skills Councils (slide 14) have received directions and resources from Governments to redevelop, in collaboration with industries and trades themselves, skill training curriculums incorporating sustainability practices but progress is very slow.
6. Securing political commitment to sustainable development (the aim of the 2012 Rio de Janeiro Conference) should include presence or absence of commitments under predefined headings (similar to Australia?s quadrilateral of energy efficiency, carbon price, renewable energy and land sector conservation) as well as commitments to monitor and exchange progress information under each heading and identifying forces militating against sustaining sustainability outcomes.

Rated 3 out of 5 by ev12345 A little disappointing The pictures on line are not even close to the way this rug looks in real life. Colors are extremely muted. Would not recommend this rug unless you are looking for something on the dull side. Also, I thought we could return this rug to a local World Market, but that is not the case. Must be sent back by mail which is in and of itself not an easy task. February 1, 2013

Do you pinch pennies until you bring tears to Honest Abe's eyes? Being cunning with cash is swell to a point; point being when you start acting more squirrelly than savvy when it comes to saving cents.
If thrift is a virtue, this quiz will tell you if you're really, really, really virtuous. By the way, the quiz is free.
We know a woman who never, ever bought perfume -- all right, she's our mother -- because every day she passed a department store filled with free-spritz-and-sample-laden fragrance counters. You think she's:
A number of years ago, Oprah had a beauty expert on her show offer this tip: When your hair frizzes up or otherwise misbehaves midday, casually stroll through a nearby drugstore, take a bottle of hand cream -- or was it hair cream? (whatever) -- and surreptitiously work a smidge of it through your tresses. Oprah looked ever-so-slightly horrified at this pro's petty-pilfering pointer. You:
Are horrified, too: This guy's shameless!
Are tempted by the tip, but just don't have the chutzpah to pull it off.
Have been doing it for years. (Yawn) Next beauty tip, please.
It's Halloween and your candy cupboard's bare. The neighbors' kids are coming calling, so you:
Darken the house and shush the dog.
Let 'em eat cake. Literally. You must have some sweet around, even if it's boring old tea biscuits.
Give coins -- big bunches of them. You feel bad enough disappointing the kids with your lack of candy.
A waiter gives you substandard service. Your tip is:
Less than the usual amount: You don't want to totally stiff the server, but good tips must be earned.
The usual 15 to 20 percent -- substandard or no, the poor schlub has to earn a living.
''Thunderbolt in the fourth.''
Your favored type of dining situation when you're footing the bill is a:
Big all-you-can-pocket ... er, -eat buffet.
Place where they pamper you with plenty of frills and options.
A cozy bistro with a BYOB policy.
Continuing in this culinary vein, you're at a nice restaurant with a first-time date (if you're married, just pretend your spouse lets you date -- OK?). After your nice meal, said date pulls out a coupon for said meal. You think:
''I'm in love!'' (or: ''Am I in one of those quickie-divorce towns?'')
''I wonder if I could fit under the table?''
''Hmm. OK.''
You're at your favorite gift store, where everybody knows your name. If you asked to be shown ''something cheap,'' the clerk would most likely show you:
Appropriate items priced under $10 or $20.
A shocked expression.
A mirror.
Rumor has it that a fruitcake received by an Alabama woman last Christmas was originally given by Mary Lincoln -- yes, Abe's wife -- to her church's pastor. Just kidding with this one -- but, hey, it could be. We know true fruitcakes-that-wouldn't-die stories that are just one notch less amazing. Anyway -- do you recycle gifts?
Did Elvis love his mama?
No -- it's the height of tackiness.
On rare occasion.
Ever steam an uncancelled stamp off mail you've received?
Of course not. That's just pitiable.
No. Does that really work?
It's been your vast experience that snip 'n' save works best -- especially with those newfangled self-sticks.
Waiting to make reduced-rate late-night calls is:
Something that doesn't even occur to you to do -- your mind doesn't work that way.
A root cause of that kith-and-kin class action lawsuit against you.
An occasional occurrence -- but you're really careful not to disturb your early bird pals.
Speaking of early birds, what do you think of eateries' early-bird specials?
They're for the birds. You eat when it's convenient for you. Period.
They're handy when you're really watching your budget.
Heck, you'd show up for dinner at 3 a.m., if the price was right. You can nap before and after.
When do you pay full retail price?
When it's the only, or best option, after all factors are considered.
Almost always -- it's the easy, no-hassle way to go. You get what you
want, when you want, how you want.
What eez zees -- how you say? -- ''full retail price''?

Brooklyn-based tattoo artist Scott Campbell and veteran Central Coast winemaker Clay Brock took to the legendary Chateau Marmont to launch the fruits of their labor, Saved Wines. The duo debuted two all-California grown vintages, Saved Red (2011) and Saved Magic Maker Rosé (2012), that were sipped poolside by guests including Lake Bell (Campbell's wife), Katie Aselton, Alexandra Holden, Aimee Garcia, Terry Richardson, Emily Ratajkowski, Fred Melamed and The Butler producer Hilary Shor. Designed by Campbell, the bottle features folkloric and superstitious symbols—a hint at the romance and alchemy inside. Photography by Aleks Kocev/BFAnyc.com

Most reviewers have hated on The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman for its weak story line and failure to engage the audience—even when it gets dramatic—at Sundance Film Festival. And it is bad, but it's not all bad.
With some pretty cool visual effects and photography, along with Shia LaBeouf's admission to actually dropping acid for the role, it has the potential to reach cult status. It's just too bad the story isn't as good as other drug movies, like Trainspotting, and, other than Charlie Countryman, most characters seem one dimensional.
The film follows Chicago kid Charlie Countryman (Shia LaBeouf), who has a vision of his deceased mother telling him to go to Bucharest. Why Bucharest? Why the hell not? Charlie makes friends with a Romanian musician who dies on the plane. He later falls in love with the man's daughter Gabi (Evan Rachel Wood), but that puts him in conflict with Gabi's sadistic husband Nigel (Mads Mikkelsen) and club owner Darko (Til Schweiger).
Legendary English actor John Hurt does the hope-filled narration through much of the film, which was a nice thought, but didn't actually fit the dark mood of the film. To be completely honest, it got kind of annoying.
Charlie's "trips" throughout the movie offer some cool visuals, like seeing his mother's spirit leave her body. Drugs come into play even more when Charlie meets Luke (James Buckley) and Carl (Rupert Grint) at a Bucharest hostel. Grint, who played Ron in the Harry Potter series, takes the unexpected role of a bloke in Bucharest who does ecstasy and aspires to become a porn star.
There are a bunch of scenes to laugh at, but some that are supposed to be funny just make you say, "Umm . . . Ok?" Examples are Charlie getting hit by a car, just to have a midget and dog staring at him. In another, two ambulance drivers crawl out of their flipped vehicle after a tragic accident very happy that the "hash" is still ok.
The ending, which is also the beginning, is just as confusing as the rest of the movie.
Bottom line: If you want to see some cool visual effects, Rupert Grint get stoned and Shia LaBeouf get punched in the face repeatedly, this is the film for you. If you want good storytelling, opt for another Sundance film.

On a windy April morning, Tim Love bounds onstage to Kiss' "Calling Dr. Love," blond hair spiked, eyes alight with mischief, to kick off the first Austin Food & Wine Festival.
Two hundred fifty people are fanned out in front of him in a park, 100 charcoal grills making the air between them shimmer. Love's demo, titled "Grills Gone Wild," will require class participation. Attendees have paid for the privilege—$250 for a basic weekend pass, $850 for VIP—of donning white aprons and cooking their own food. Accompanying those 100 grills are 100 red plastic coolers containing bottles of white wine, two gorgeous cuts of meat (skirt steak, New York strip), and a head of broccolini. "What is it, 9:30?" Love bellows as he calls for everyone to take a shot of tequila. The audience will be sunburned, sand-whipped, and smelling of smoke tinged with rendered fat by the end of the two-hour event. "Y'all don't understand," Love says. "This is the greatest day of my life. People grilling, smoke everywhere, cold tequila, white wine, my friends all here. This is some of the craziest shit you've ever done in your life."
For me, it's a lot to process. Before moving to Texas, I spent most of my life as a yoga practicing, California-dwelling vegetarian. For my adopted state, I hold the fascination and fierce loyalty of the convert. But friends say I still use meat like a condiment. It also does not bode well that I have dual French-American citizenship. A recipe note in a cookbook I picked up before the demo has Love making jabs at French classical tradition and its fancy sauces; who needs them? So I can't help but feel equal parts bewildered and intrigued by this man who makes jokes about "uncovering your meat" and starts every third sentence with the word "shoot."
It seems to be working, though. Love has created an empire. The Woodshed Smokehouse, his latest success, snagged a prime spot on the Trinity River and a best new restaurant nomination from Bon Appetit. D Magazine named it one of the 10 best new restaurants of 2012. Love bounces between festivals in New York and Aspen and gives grilling tips to men's magazines. At the Austin demo, attendees wore Tim Love aprons and cut skirt steak on Tim Love cutting boards, part of a new Tim Love line sold at Sur la Table. "People love him," says Food & Wine publisher Christina Grdovic. "Everyone want him everywhere."
Certain realities—for instance, Love's smiling mug appearing on Sur la Table's catalog the day after his demo—make it tempting to conclude that the man is nothing but the product of clever marketing. Witnessing a crowd high on his energy, you might take him for an opportunist who capitalized on an image and is grilling it for all it's worth. You would be wrong. To understand Love is to grasp something fundamental about Texas—its mix of authenticity and myth, showmanship and sincerity. They are not mutually exclusive.
As Love signs autographs after his cooking demo, Margaret "Queenie" Love, having found a seat in the shade, tells me that her son's folksy demeanor betrays him. "People always say the same things," she says. "They don't get how hardworking he is. He's the most hardworking kid."
Growing up in a family with a single mother and six older siblings, Love couldn't afford nonchalance. When his mom came home with a $50 bag of groceries, it was everyone for himself. Love ate a lot of cheese and mustard sandwiches. When you grow up as he did, says Queenie, who still works as a surgical assistant, you learn you have to fight to get what you want.
As a 12-year-old with a paper route, Love changed the way the Denton Record-Chronicle did business. It made more sense to bill first, then deliver, he reasoned. So they let him. On Sundays, when the paper was thick and heavy, his mother drove him. If friends slept over on Saturday, they knew they'd be up with him at 6 am and return to the house with ink on their hands.
From the age of 11, when his parents divorced and his father bought a 26-acre farm in Tennessee, he also learned the discipline of farm chores and the pleasure of making things grow. His father, an anesthesiologist, had bought the farm "more or less for tax reasons," Love says, but father and son grew to relish country life. "I was always a big outdoors person," he says. On the farm, he fed rabbits, cleaned chicken coops, and cared for a couple dozen head of cattle and goats, pigs, and lambs. He cut grass, tended the 1-acre garden, and turned clippings into compost.
Love's descriptions of the farm have a mythical, Tom Sawyer quality. The creek where he caught crawdads was bordered with wild watercress. Blackberries and purple Indian corn grew wild. He was 12 when he shot his first deer, and he used its hide to make the backpack he carried through the halls of Denton High School. "I sewed it with my dad," he says. He relates the details matter-of-factly, without flair. For him, advanced calculus and a deerskin backpack are part of the same story.
Now, on his 4,500-acre ranch in Gordon, Texas, Love hunts oryx, blackbuck antelope, white-tailed and axis deer, wild pig, dove, duck, and wild turkey. Sometimes media people ask him about his hunting. Conversations go something like this:
"So you kill it. Then what?"
"Then you skin it."
"You mean you skin it?"
"Well, yeah. Who else is gonna skin it?" Silence. And an "Are you for real?" kind of look.
"What am I supposed to say?" he asks. "You see a snake, you get a broom, you step on it and kill it. I don't know how else to explain it. There are lots of people who like to talk about food, but they've never killed anything. It's a lot of talk. And that's okay. It's just a different world." Then, almost as an afterthought: "Slaughtering a cow isn't easy to do." This is not mere machismo on display.
Love thinks deeply about what he eats. "I want people to understand where food comes from," he says. "In America, we have divorced ourselves from the way food is made. Get rid of hormones. Get rid of antibiotics. Take the risk of growing food the right way." He stops, grins. "And then eat the shit out of it." Love didn't go far from his father's farm when it came time for college. While studying at the University of Tennessee, he worked 50- to 60-hour weeks, many of them for a Knoxville restaurateur named Frank Kotsianas, whom Love calls a "short Greek dude and a tremendous butcher." He learned he could "kick anybody's ass on the line," but it was hard to balance the work with his studies.
Unable to crank out problem sets for a class one time, he told his professor: I work full time and just can't do the homework. The professor cut him a deal: maintain a B-plus average, and he could skip the problem sets. When the scores came in for the next test, his name was called: 98 percent. "Giddyup!" he says, thumping a counter.
He graduated with a double degree in finance and marketing and wrote a thesis on the wine industry of Napa. "I'm a businessman," he says, not for the first time. But by then he'd decided he wasn't going to be a banker.
Love was 28 when he opened Lonesome Dove Western Bistro in Fort Worth in 2000. With no culinary degree, he relied on what he'd learned while working in restaurants in college. The man who leased Love the space for Lonesome Dove wasn't hopeful. "He anticipated me closing in six months," Love says. But he also got odd and unexpected votes of confidence, including from one of the owners of the historic saloon around the corner. The White Elephant Saloon had been in business for more than 100 years and had become an institution in the Stockyards.
"We've all decided you're going to buy the White Elephant," the man said.
"That's great," Love shot back. "It's kind of interesting how this is going to work out, because I'm broke."
The story feels like a tall tale. Details fall away. Plot simplifies to its essence. Where are the logistics of budget predictions and risk-assessment plans? Why did the owners want to sell? The plausible and the mythical collide. Love's stories are like that. And for some reason, the questions seem irrelevant. As you're carried by the story, you know it's fundamentally true.
As for the White Elephant, buy it he did. "Shoot, that's where my wife, Emilie, and I would go at night, have a beer and go home. I love the bar," he says. He found himself saddled with more debt than he'd ever carried. He jokes when he says that their balance sheet left Emilie curled up in the fetal position, but he's serious when he calls it one of the scariest times of his life.With Lonesome Dove and the White Elephant, Love's feet were planted firmly in Fort Worth. Still, the city wasn't sure it trusted him. Some thought he would ruin the White Elephant. Others looked askance at menus whose kangaroo carpaccio nachos with habanero-fig demi-glace were a far cry from home cooking. But Zagat quickly ranked Lonesome Dove the No. 1 restaurant in the city, and the Dallas Morning News awarded it a four-star rating. "For a restaurant in the Stockyards, that was kind of unheard of," Love says.
His "urban cowboy" cuisine aims for the boldness of unfussy food, well executed—like a steak that tastes of wood smoke and grassfed beef. Communing with fire and a hunk of meat is a primal urge, he'll tell you. It taps into something deep, like a hunger for the Western frontier. Everyone wants to be a pioneer at heart. "They wanna be Americans," he says.
"I love the whole attitude of what the cowboy is and was," Love says. "A pioneering person with this innate politeness, yet adventurous and risk-taking. Not scared. I feel like I've always had that attitude in everything that I do, including my food. I'm not afraid to get beat, either. Cowboys are not always the winners, by any means. They're just the ones that weren't afraid to take the risk."
His success cemented in Fort Worth, Love was soon ready to light out for a new frontier. Instead of heading west, though, Love went east. And his experience in New York raised doubts about whether you can export the cowboy without turning him into a cartoon.
In 2006, with the original Lonesome Dove doing well, Love opened a second one in Manhattan. Texas-born New York transplant Lisa Fain, whose cookbook The Homesick Texan evolved out of her blog of the same title, remembers walking over to meet her compatriot at the opening of Lonesome Dove. "The door was open, and he and some workers were working on the bar. He was just so nice. Really friendly," she says. "It's interesting, though. In the early days, it was packed, and later there were fewer people. It made me sad. He was Texan." That was the problem. New York, it turned out, wasn't sold on the cowboy thing.
Frank Bruni of the New York Times played up the culture shock. In his "First Impressions" piece, he feigned ignorance, wondering if he should have worn a Stetson. "Isn't that what they're called?" he asked. "Those widebrimmed hats on the range?" His full review one month later was titled "A Texas Saloon Rides Into Town," and clearly the town Love rode into didn't know what to make of what Bruni dubbed a "festive hoedown" of flavors.
Reactions registered bewilderment, even pity. Adam Platt of New York magazine commented on the "tattered-looking steer skin" spread on the sidewalk like a welcome mat that took a beating in the late-fall weather. It was a question of bad fi t, he theorized. While Love earned laurels in his hometown, the restaurant seemed "goofy and a little off-key" in New York. The antler chandelier, the paintings of jumbo-size cowboy boots, the chefs in cowboy hats—everything felt like a gimmick.
"It was a little over-the-top, I think, for New Yorkers," Love concedes. "We should have gone for a more polished ranch feel, as opposed to the more rustic feel that we went for."
In retrospect, Fain blames bad timing. "I honestly think that it was just too soon," she says. "I think Texan cuisine has just in the last two years become recognized. There's a lot of excitement now, but back then, people were like, 'Oh, it's the hick from the South.' "
Maybe there's nothing Love could have done. "The George Bush thing didn't help," he says. "People hated George Bush in New York City. I mean, hated him. With a passion. It's like they wanted to not like the restaurant."
Lonesome Dove closed its doors after eight months. "It was a business decision," he says. "The restaurant wasn't losing money, but it wasn't making significant money. Someone wanted to buy us out. It's about what's best for the business, not for my ego. I put a lot of emotion in the food, and I get excited about it, but at the end of the day, it's gotta have cash fl ow, or we just move on. It's not emotional for me."
In many ways, New York's response to Love makes sense. I recognize the skepticism. They doubted how much of the place could be genuine. How do you convince the sophisticates of the Flatiron district that cowboy boots and Stetson hats aren't a gimmick where you come from—might, in fact, be so familiar to you that you forget they could seem foreign elsewhere? Removed from its context, Love's cowboy aesthetic became a caricature. How could it not be? Attempts to provide context only drew the cartoon in more garish hues.
Ultimately, though, Love calls the New York episode the most fortuitous move he ever made because of the connections he forged, connections that landed him on shows such as Food Network's Iron Chef and pulled him into the high-profile food festival circuit.
After the New York misadventure, Love remembers talking with his publicist. "What are we going to do about it?" Love asked.
"We're not going to do anything," came the reply. "The only way you have good PR is if you create it. You gotta be yourself. You gotta build a restaurant that people love."
Reflecting on the time, Love recognizes his youthful ambition. "What I didn't realize, maturity-wise, was that what I really needed to do was develop my cuisine in my own town. I cook with so much more confidence now. I know what I want to cook."
The Woodshed Smokehouse, the restaurant he opened last winter that feels like a backyard barbecue on the banks of the Trinity River, is the perfect expression of where they've arrived together, Love and his city. "The city trusts me now," he says. "It's a very traditional town. That's what I love about it."
But he also notes an adventurousness absent a decade ago. Which may explain why by 10 o'clock on a weekend morning, a welldressed woman can perch at the Woodshed bar and order the last goat-meat breakfast taco before reaching for a newspaper. For the intrepid, there's Korean barbecue-style Bulgogi beef with house-made kimchi. But there's also a pulled pork sandwich.
"If you ever get nervous, you can always get that and know it'll be okay," he says. Love's underlying principle: make people comfortable so they try new things. He says, "I'll see things on Twitter: 'I don't know what the hell I had at the Woodshed, but it was awesome.' "
But, he says, "I probably wouldn't have served the Woodshed menu 12 years ago. They would have said, 'Hey! Do you know where you're at, boy? This is Fort Worth!' "
This kind of honesty—and mature understanding of place—are part of what impressed chef Marcus Samuelsson, a friend of Love's and owner of the celebrated Red Rooster in Harlem. Samuelsson recognizes Love as a fellow "outsider" with pride in his roots and someone whose hunting background reminds Samuelsson of his Ethiopian heritage. "He's not wearing a cowboy hat for image. That's why it'll always look good on him," Samuelsson says. "Lonesome Dove is four walls that show that community. It's in and of that community."
Midafternoon on a Saturday in the Stockyards, past the original Love Shack hamburger joint, a line forms for the mechanical bull as white-knuckled kids take turns whooping and gyrating. Between rides, the man in the control booth dips French fries from a paper bag emblazoned with the Love Shack logo. This, too, is what it means to be "in and of" a community.
When I ask Love when he first thought he'd made it, he balks. At some point, though, you must realize you've gone from cheese and mustard sandwiches to an empire. His is undeniably a success story, yet he seems uncomfortable characterizing it as such. What about the 4,500-acre ranch? It's a 20-year lease, he says, deflecting. But the question has brought a scene to mind, and in recounting the exuberant moment, he finds himself answering the question:
A festival atmosphere reigns on the ranch as friends join him and his son for the opening of dove season, celebrating with drinks afterward. "Shoot," he says, "I never thought I'd even come close to that. Everything I do is a dream. I forget it a lot, because I'm so busy trying to make it happen. You either pull the trigger, or you sit back and watch somebody else do it. We started everything from scratch
We had nothing. Not that I'd ever want to go back to that place, but I'm not afraid of it."
Like he wasn't afraid to make the Austin festival happen, with its 250 people playing with fi re. "It was a gigantic risk, financially," he says. (He won't give figures but likens it to opening two restaurants, all for one weekend.) His co-founder, Tyson Cole, a chef who opened the first high-end sushi restaurant in Austin and was named Best Chef Southwest by the James Beard Society in 2011, later told me the festival was the biggest risk of his career. He said this slowly, thoughtfully, and with certainty.
"Before, I've always been the talent," Cole says. "I've never been the one who puts his signature on the bottom line. We didn't want to go too large, but we wanted to make sure it looked great. We handed out a whole bunch of extra tickets, and we basically wanted people to have a good time. We knew we would lose money the first year. It's a first year."
The latest outpost of the Love empire is at Amon G. Carter Stadium, on the TCU campus. Love is working with Sodexo, the company that runs the university's concessions and catering. Horned Frog fans can now enjoy Woodshed menu items, like the pulled pork sandwich, Mexican corn on the cob, and sausage of the day.
"It was me and all these big companies," Love says of the bidding process. "Everyone looks at me like, 'Why the hell is Tim Love here?' Shoot, I wanna bid on it."
Feeding thousands? Done that at the Austin City Limits music festival, where he has cranked out 70,000 burgers in three days and fed the rockers rabbit-rattlesnake sausage and venison foie gras sliders. Now he had a vision to shake up college sports concessions, go for "real cheese, real meat, fresh ingredients, made-in-house sauces, onions that weren't cut three weeks ago." Maybe peddle Bulgogi beef tacos from street carts. Give them something to talk about. "You don't want to change the sporting experience. You can serve burgers. You just gotta serve quality burgers," he says. "Course, I wanted to start it in my own town first."
And there it is again: the way he casts himself resolutely as a mere participant in—not orchestrator of—his success. It's there in the way he describes the Austin festival as the best day of his life. It's in the fact that a lived moment on the ranch is his answer to a question about how he knew he'd made it. That's why you can't reduce Love to marketing.
Love's TCU project has his "Giddyup!" ambition written all over it. But this is not bravado. His confidence is both earnest and earned. In this business, he says, you're like a duck swimming: never let them see how hard you're working under the surface.

Scientific Misconduct Is Jeopardizing the Quality...
In an RNA-seq-based study, investigators at the University of California, San Francisco, have found that the human genome encodes far more long, intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) than were previously known.
And while lincRNAs had largely been considered genomic "junk"—transcriptional noise—the scientists present in PLOS Genetics new evidence to suggest some may have functional consequences.
"We found that the lincRNAs we identified have many characteristics that are inconsistent with noise, including specific regulation of their expression, the presence of conserved sequence and evidence for regulated processing," UCSF's Michael McManus, Ph.D., and his colleagues write. "Furthermore, these lincRNAs are strongly enriched with intergenic sequences that were previously known to be functional in human traits and diseases."
Dr. McManus et al., studied a large set of RNA-seq data covering an array of tissue types and performed de novo transcriptome assembly.
Overall, the investigators identified tens of thousands of putative lincRNAs expressed at a level of at least one copy per cell. Finding many more lincRNAs than they had anticipated, the researchers write, actually helps "to resolve the discrepancy between the vast amount of observed intergenic transcription and the limited number of previously known lincRNAs."
"Now that we realize that all these RNA molecules exist and have identified them, the struggle is to understand which are going to have a function that is important," Dr. McManus said in a statement. "It may take decades to determine this."
"Pervasive transcription of the human genome produces thousands of previously unidentified long intergenic noncoding RNAs" appeared in PLOS Genetics June 20.

A Harrington man was arrested Saturday after he allegedly wielded a knife and threatened to burn down a convenience store.
Milford police said they were called to the Mills Brothers Market at 508 S.E. Second St. about 9:52 a.m. after receiving a report of a disorderly man in the store causing a disturbance.
Thomas H. Scott, 38, was leaving the store as officers arrived and refused to comply with their verbal commands, Milford Police spokesman Detective Dwight Young said.
After subduing Scott, police reportedly found him in possession of two knives.
Officers later determined that Scott was involved in a domestic dispute with a 35-year-old woman in the store when he pulled out a knife and threatened to kill her.
Scott also threatened to "burn down the store and everyone it in," Young said.
Scott is charged with aggravated menacing, carrying a concealed weapon, terroristic threatening, resisting arrest, harassment, offensive touching, disorderly conduct and criminal trespass.
He is being held at the Sussex Correctional Institution on a $12,500 secured bond, police said.

NFL Network should just cover 31 teams
6 comments
Hey Richard..I'm a long suffering fan like yourself. I lived through the end of Woodley/trock years, the Marino years and all of these sh*t 12 years since they pushed him out. The organization is an absolute disgrace. The NFL channel, Espn and any other media source is 100% correct...and is not nearly as excessive as it should be.
That is the lamest thing I have ever heard. I have been a fan since 70's and and am laffing my ass off over this organazations stupidity, that being said, I have noticed for the past 15 years the Dolphins are always the target of certain morans on all the sports networks, this includes the two mororans on mike and mike in the morining. I will never stop being a Dolphin fan and long after this front is gone and some semblance of normalicy ensues this organization will continue to flounder. Until then sit back and have a good laugh, because that is about sll we can do at this point.
Yea I agree with you that Ireland should have been doing more during free agency but it's just free agency. You build your team through the draft, that's why all the consistently top teams don't make big splashes. I just think that they can make their point across once but after you keep hammering home the subject I think its a little repetitive. They are just pouring it on.
Sadly I was not able to watch the Dan Marino or Don Shula era, so maybe my idea of how a franchise should be run is a bit different. Thanks for reading and giving me your perspective in which you were able to watch the Marino era.
Also it must be really hard living in New York being a Dolphin fan lol
After a while of watching the Dolphins getting bashed on a regular basis I guess I was just a bit fed up. And I think some of the local media is too, this is from Ben Volin's twitter in reference to the video
"It's actually Joey Porter and Warren Sapp tag-teaming Ireland on that video. Everyone's piling on at this point, seems a tad excessive"
Can we please trade for who we should have drafted last year...? Ryan Mallet out of Arkansas??? I wanted him last year and OMG look at what he did in the preseason!... I know it was preseason but he is an NFL QB that could've been ready to take the reigns this year.
Lets start the Ryan Mallet trade theories now!!! Please!!! The next thing I want to hear is "Sources are stating that the Dolphins are in discussions to trade New England for Ryan Mallet."
