Everyone knows... or should know that Epicurious.com is an awesome website. Great recipes & articles, the opportunity to save your favorite finds to your personal recipe box... you get the idea. So it should be no surprise that their apps are equally spectacular and they are!
The first cool thing about it is that it's FREE. Not to say there are no other free apps out there. But often you have to pay to upgrade to increase the number of recipes you have access to or, at least to remove ads (a personal dislike of mine). Most magazine apps are a per pay per issue experience - not to knock them... I have a few myself.
The second really excellent feature is that it magically syncs my iPad & iPhone apps... meaning if I'm browsing on my iPhone while out somewhere and find a favorite recipe for that bunch of ... whatever... I just found at the market. I can find any other ingredients I might need, add it to my recipe box and the recipe is on my iPad when I get home and am ready to cook. I realize that I could use my phone for the cooking, but the screen on the iPad is so much easier to read in the kitchen.
Third, and absolutely brilliant element (that I only just discovered because the image at the top of the page was taken when I first got my iPhone back in the late Fall or early Winter. Check out the categories... weeknight dinners, decadent desserts... Today, it's all about Grilled mains, Spring Desserts, Graduation Parties...) is that all the recipes are seasonal! How fantastic is that!
Recipes are categorized in a number of ways.... seasonally... brunch, picnic, dinner, lunches, grilled mains, Bridal showers... etc. this time. Since there are so many recipes in each category (there were 24 just for flank steak) you can choose by ratings...
For example the Rosemary & Garlic Grilled Flank steak that I adapted for skirt steak, had a rating of 96% based on 30 user reviews. You can actually read them. Plus there's nutritional info.
The Search feature is another excellent tool. You can hunt by main ingredient, meal/course, cuisine, dietary considerations, dish type or, season. Once you've chosen a recipe you can check the "shopping list" to see what you need to buy. If you want to keep up with the "cool kids", you could just click on the "newest" tab to see what's recommended.
The recipes themselves are well presented, clear and easy to follow directions - as you'd expect from Epicurious and a simple touch has the ingredients on your shopping list. Even if you've just found everything on the iPad... your shopping list is automatically updated on your iPhone.
Bottom line: I have lots of food apps, but this one is by far my favorite.

Rockwired Magazine's 2014 Radio Music Awards have bestowed some serious love upon local rockers Stone Soul Foundation. The local boys won for best music video for Takin' Back the U.S. and won for Best Band beating out such fan favorites as Bobaflex.
Stone Soul Foundation continues to rise into the national minds and hearts of rock fans and they remain as a free agent in terms of 'getting signed'. Hats off to their manager Sherry Dobson for informing me as it happened last night. Personally, I did not watch the Grammy Awards so this was excellent news indeed.
"STONE SOUL FOUNDATiON iS THE WiNNER OF THE ROCKWiRED RADiO MUSiC AWARD FOR BEST BAND!!!
""TAKiNG BACK THE U.S" BY STONE SOUL FOUNDATiON iS THE WiNNER OF THE ROCKWiRED RADiO MUSiC AWARD FOR BEST MUSiC ViDEO!!!

Here is my announcement of their inclusion in these awards a few weeks back:
Congratulations to SSF and their manager Sherry Dobson, your talents are reaping the deserved rewards!

How It Works:
Bicycle motocross (BMX) has its roots in California in the late 1960s, around the time that motocross was becoming a popular sport in the United States. Children and teenagers unable to participate in motocross sated their appetite by racing bikes on self-built tracks close to home.
A sanctioning body, the American Bicycle Association, was founded in 1977 and over the next decade the sport gained in international popularity. The sport was introduced to Europe in 1978, which led to the founding of the International BMX Federation in 1981 and the first world championships in 1982. Once it became evident that BMX had more in common with cycling than motorcycling, BMX was integrated into the International Cycling Union in 1993.
BMX is the newest Olympic cycling discipline and made its debut at Beijing 2008. It had debuted at the Pan American Games one year earlier in Rio de Janeiro.
Riders compete on short tracks that include jumps, bumps and tight, banked corners. Eight riders line up side-by-side at the start gate at the top of a steep ramp. When the gate drops, they accelerate down the ramp onto the track, and race shoulder-to-shoulder to the finish. The overall length of a BMX track is between 300 and 400 metres, meaning each race takes about 40 seconds to complete. The men's track may include slightly bigger jumps than the women's track.

The above patch seems to fix the build process (tho' no doubt in the wrong way - I have no clue about this whole introspection thing - I just bumped the version to 1.1 and upped the configure check).
This does not result in any *.introspect files for me, but perhaps this is something that has changed in later versions of gobject-introspection??

The Pennsylvania legislature passed a bill legalizing table games at state casinos in both the House and the Senate. Governor Ed Rendell had set a deadline of Friday to pass a compromising bill, but it was not needed as the legislature came to a satisfying compromise before the deadline.
Pennsylvania casinos will now be able to add Blackjack, Roulette, Baccarat, and Poker to the existing Slot Machines. This is great news for many casino patrons who have longed to play table games.
Governor Rendell had pushed hard for the bill, stating that the budget had been planned with the expected $250 million from additional gambling revenue included, and that failure to pass the measure could mean layoffs of a thousand government employees.
The table gambling bill passed first in the Senate, 28 to 22 and later in the day in the House with a vote of 103 to 89.
Dante Santoni Chairman of the House Gaming Oversight Committee said "This is a common sense, bipartisan piece of legislation that makes our gaming facilities more competitive, improves the public's confidence in gaming, raises money we desperately need in these tough financial times, and most importantly it helps put thousands of people to work in a brand new industry,"
Under the new law, large casinos are permitted as many as 250 tables, while smaller resorts are limited to 50 tables. Casinos will now be able to give credit to qualified patrons under the new bill; this was also one of the main concerns during deliberation of the bill.

Download Now Blogs Now Video Training Series Customer Success Plan BIM Score
As part of our BIM Master Class Series for General Contractors and Owners, Vico proudly presents BIM for Executives:
What: A free online webinarHow: Fill out the form below to download the archived webinar
Vico's BIM for Executives class is taught at universities and in boardrooms across the world. Join as we bring this exclusive content to our Fridays with Vico audience.
Having BIM capabilities, whether with a professional services team or with an in-house team, is an important differentiator in today's tight market. But many executives have the daunting task of selling these new deliverables to clients... and to their internal teams. This webinar helps executives better understand the cost and time outlay to acquire these BIM skills and then how best to market them externally and internally.
Building on the coursework from the BIM Master Class Series, BIM for Executives puts the dollars and cents around the technology, methodology, and personnel. As companies embrace the technology and train their staff to use these new tools they find out, often too late, that there is a new language they need to learn and that they need to be prepared to translate for their clients.
In addition, senior managers, though they may never actually use the software or delve deeply into the services, need to know what BIM does, how BIM works, and most importantly - the many different ways it can be used to manage the project.
This webinar is for your firm if:>> Your company is considering whether or not to invest in BIM technology;
>> Your company is considering whether or not to utilize a BIM Professional Services Team;>> Your company is considering re-writing preconstruction processes;
>> Your company has a BIM Task Force in place to explore options.>> Your company has a goal to push BIM past modeling and clash detection to 4D schedules and 5D estimates;>> Your company needs senior managers to communicate effectively with clients regarding BIM.
And as with all our Fridays with Vico sessions, we'll include case studies, ROI, and plenty of time for Q&A.
Please be sure to forward along this invitation to the Quantity Surveyors, Estimators, and the Preconstruction Team at your firm.
Other courses in this series include:
BIM 101 - an overview of the 2D through 5D process, including layouting and production control
BIM 201 - a discussion of new coordination methodology that includes both space and time elements
BIM 301 - a course outlining the latest BIM contract language and addendums
BIM 401 - an overview of model-based scheduling
BIM 501 - an overview of model-based estimating
BIM 502 - an advanced course tying the model progression specification to the conceptual estimate, creating an evolving cost plan
Learn from your peers with your peers at Fridays with Vico.
You can find even more related resources on the BIM Summer Reading List for Executive Teams. You might also like to review the BIM Checklist, read the blog article, BIM Is Bigger than You Think, and consider calculating your firm's BIM Score. Be sure to take advantage of these articles, videos, and other ideas for your firm.

Sports Gossip: The Monday Morning Couch Potatoes
Page 1 of 3Fellas, the "Monday Morning Couch Potatoes" feel your pain. We understand that sometimes in life, you have to make sacrifices. We've all been there before. Spent Saturday night watching Undiscovered with the lady instead of at the bar with the boys? Picked the kids up from the dance recital instead of watching the big game? It's okay. It happens. That's where we come in.
At the start of every week, the "Monday Morning Couch Potatoes" (Peter Schrager and Adam Weinberg) will fill you in on the important things you missed while trying to pretend like you really care about all the other stuff in your life. Each Monday, you will wake up with an up-to-date summary of all the vital (and worthless) things you might have missed in the past week of sports and entertainment.
These are the six stories that sparked our interest the most during the past week of sports, pop culture and entertainment. This article, and every one of its biweekly successors, will serve as a "cheat sheet" for the various conversations you will have with coworkers and friends over the upcoming week.
So get educated, then hit up the water cooler for some conversation with the boys from accounts receivable.
Water Cooler Topic #1:
We want more Madden!
For those not familiar, Madden is to sports video games what Harry Potter is to children's books. Madden NFL 2006, the latest installment of the Electronic Arts franchise, was released earlier this month to much media hoopla and fanfare. Though the game received negative critical reviews, fans bought it. A lot of them. Electronic Arts announced that the title sold 1.7 million copies (taking into account all platforms) in its first week of release, easily breaking the record for first-week sales in the 16-year history of the series.
Adam's take: Sure, I was one of the sheep who ran out the day Madden was released and plopped down my $54.99 for the game, but I had no choice! For those of us who grew up with Madden, it has become a rite of passage to buy it every year. As for this year's enhancements, I think that the online play, the Madden Bowls and the new passing cone features are all for the birds. Just give me a big Gatorade and let me edit rosters all day long. In fact, I haven't really even played the game yet. I am still too busy making sure all the players in the games have the correct helmet configuration and that those who are supposed to be wearing eye black are. I guess I really get into the whole "If it's in the game" thing, because I just gave my virtual Jeremy Shockey a haircut.
Peter's take: Congratulations to Electronic Arts. I'm assuming the head honchos there have to feel a lot like Tom Cruise after War of the Worlds premiered. Despite taking a ribbing in the media, the company shattered records and brought in a whopping $1.7 million in its first week. That's more money than all of Cedric the Entertainer's movies combined made. My favorite negative review of Madden 06 was the one in The New York Times. Since when have that paper's readership and the fat stoner at State U playing PS2 overlapped? To give a video game that everyone loves to play while tired, lazy and in college a bad review is like taking Tom Green to task for his role in Freddy Got Fingered.
Water Cooler Topic #2:
A wild Wild Card
In its 10-year existence, the National League Wild Card has never seen a race as crazy as 2005's. The Phillies, Marlins, Nationals, Mets, Cubs, Brewers, and Astros are all currently jockeying for the prized spot. While some of these teams sport fine pitching, others are carried by big bats. Veteran squads are duking it out with young upstarts. In the National League, the playoffs will really start in September, as only one of these seven squads will make the postseason.
Adam's take: The 2005 home stretch is about the best argument the MLB could make against those stuffy anti-Wild Card baseball purists. The race this year is setting up to be can't-miss-baseball, which is something the game really needs after the big steroids syringe they stuck in their own ass to start the year off. From here on out, every play matters, and any mistake is going to be magnified on a national stage. And I believe that Steve Bartman is lurking somewhere, ready for a possible return to playoff baseball at Wrigley.
Peter's take: Gotta pull for the Brew Crew in this race. Would there be a better locker room image than Bud Selig soiling Derrick Turnbow's afro with a cheap bottle of champagne? Small market baseball, baby! You've got to think that, if by some chance the Brewers do take this thing, they'll sign Robin Yount and Paul Molitor for the playoffs. It just wouldn't be a Brewers postseason without those two starring as the featured players.

Photographs of people on the streets of New York City taken by Herb Edwards from 1966 to 1968.
I was born in Brownsville, PA in 1940. I have an BFA from The University of New Mexico and an MFA from Pratt Institute. I taught for 19 years at Brookdale Community College in New Jersey. In 1989 I retired from teaching to concentrate my full time and energy on painting. My painting subject matter consists mostly of figures in the environment, still life and the landscapes of New Mexico, Cape Cod, New Jersey, and Maine. I reside on Cape Cod with my wife, the expressionist painter Lillia Frantin.

On the fifth day they reached the mountain; and the name of the mountain was Theches. When the first group arrived on the mountain, a great shout went up. Now when Xenophon and the rear-guard heard it, they thought that other enemies were attacking from the burning area; the rear-guard had killed some of them and captured others alive by setting an ambush, and had also captured about twenty shaggy, raw wicker ox-hide shields. But as the shout became louder and nearer, and those coming up began to run at full speed toward those ahead that were shouting, and as the shout became much greater as they became greater, it seemed to Xenophon that there was something very important. So he mounted his horse, taking also Lycius and the cavalry, and went ahead to help. Soon they heard the soldiers shouting: "The Sea! The Sea!" and passing it along. Then all the rear-guard ran and the pack animals broke into a run and also the horses. And when they came to the peak, then they embraced one another, both the generals and the captains, weeping. And all of a sudden, when someone suggested it, the soldiers bring stones and make a great heap.

A photographic journal of a journey through Turkey. The people, the places and the experiences.
Originally from Sydney, Australia I studied Visual Communication (Photography and imaging) then dabbled in the photographic industry in various capacities. I moved into publishing, photo editing and design where I found I could enjoy a balance between production and creation which was fulfilling. In 2006 I moved to Spain to learn the language, challenge my comfort zone and to see the world. Currently I'm working in copywriting which has added a new dimension to my professional and personal interests. Hopefully I'll end up back in publishing one day, but for now my camera and I are happy wandering the earth.

While the Thanksgiving holiday is winding to a close, the day after is just getting started.
Some Bowling Green residents are thankful for day after Thanksgiving shopping deals.
You've probably seen the advertisements all week long for extended store hours and special deals.
That's exactly why Jason Gammon is waiting in line and in the cold tonight.
"It's been a long day. I've been out here since about 10 o'clock. It's actually competitive shopping is what I've termed. It's been pretty fun stuff though," assured Jason Gammon, an early holiday shopper.
Jason plans on buying a laptop for his dad, a navigating system and a computer among other electronics.
He thinks he's the 20th person in line to get in the door.

Thank you.
So, so good to have him back. A genuine attacking option and allows us to rotate Santi Cazorla when necessary. I loved having him back yesterday.

Recordings From The Middle East
A quick break from film reviews to give a big shout out to the debut album from the six piece Townsville band The Middle East. I'm probably a little late to the party on this one (the band has been around for a while and their album was released in May), but The Middle East is the most extraordinary Australian band I've ever heard. From the exquisite harmonic vocals to the haunting use of guitar, their sound recalls Simon and Garfunkel, The Doves and Broken Social Scene but at an almost transcendent level. This album literally took my breath away. Truly stunning.
The video clip for 'Blood' by equally incomparable Greedy Hen.

Most of us at one point all believed that wrestling was real, or at least, we really wanted it to be. New photos posted online may crush those dreams.
A script that appears to be of last week's WWE Monday Night Raw, an episode where they paid tribute to Ultimate Warrior has been leaked online. The images uploaded onto website Imgur looks like the real deal.
Those who watched the episode may be able to work out whether or not certain phrases in the script list what actually happened. The check list near the end is particularly interesting.

College Hockey:Huskies Shutout Sioux
Netminder Weslosky Stellar in Upset Win
ST. CLOUD, Minn. — The last time St. Cloud and the No. 12 ranked University of North Dakota met, nothing seemed to go right for the Huskies. However, in front of a sellout crowd of 6,108 Friday night in St. Cloud, it was a completely different story.
SCSU used a well balanced recipe of supreme goaltending, early scoring and superb blocking by defenders in an upset win over the Fighting Sioux, 3-0.
"We got in penalty trouble, but our penalty kill answered the bell tonight," Husky head coach Bob Motzko said after Friday's win. "One reason was (Jase Weslosky) was really good. Two, we blocked a lot of shots and that was one thing we had to address and was one of the things that's hurt us this year. . . I think tonight we did a really good job on that end."
Junior netminder Jase Weslosky proved perfect on the evening, while the Huskies blocked 26 shots defensively.
"We've been pretty successful at home so far, and that really gives sort of a comfort zone," Weslosky said with a smile after the win. "It's those kinds of things that we need to be able to bring on to the road with us. Tonight we saw that everyone on our team was working the system and doing what they needed to do while being where they needed to be."
St. Cloud's first tally on the scoreboard came just over 15 minutes into the first period. After UND and SCSU exchanged penalties over the first three quarters of the first, all three of the Huskies' alternate captain charted points on junior Ryan Lasch's 12th goal of the year.
Senior Michael Olson worked the puck back to the right point to senior defenseman David Carlisle, who took the puck around the back of the net, feeding Lasch for a goal on a bouncing puck.
"I was working my off side at the point and I like to come down," Carlisle said. "When I was going around the net, (Lasch) was yelling the whole way like always, you can hear him over everybody and he was just following me and I knew that's where he scores all his goalsI just knew he was going to be there . . . great play by (Lasch)."
During the second period, the two teams once again exchanged penalties for the first fifteen minutes, before SCSU was able to find their way to the scoreboard yet again.
This time, St. Clouds' other big playmaker, sophomore Garrett Roe was able to bury a wraparound five-hole on UND keeper freshman Brad Eidsness.
Freshmen Nicholas Rioux and Travis Novak connected before Novak and Roe began a game of pitch and catch. Roe then took the puck around the backside of the net, forcing Eidsness out of position, pushing the lead to two goals.
The Huskies would extend their lead to three just two and a half minutes before the end of the second, when Rioux fired a shot from the left point, once again beating Eidsness five-hole. Assists on the play were credited to Carlisle and sophomore winger Aaron Marvin.
Scoring went by the wayside in the third, as Weslosky was put to the test stopping 14 UND shots in the period. The Sioux out shot SCSU 14-6 in the third but once again, superior netminding, combined with a collection of blocked shots by the defensive core helped lock up two conference points for St. Cloud State.
"A night like this when my team is blocking as many shots as I have to make saves, it's obviously a good thing, guys are in the room right now with ice bags just because they were taking (shots) everywhere," Weslosky remarked after the shutout. "It's not a one man game obviously and when everybody is working together and doing the exact same things, you go out onto the ice and something special is put together."
Weslosky's shutout is the first for SCSU over UND since February 3, 2000. Weslosky stopped all 34 shots faced for the win, while North Dakota's Eidsness stopped 15 of 18 shots in the loss.
The Huskies (14-11-2, 9-9-1 WCHA) and the Fighting Sioux (15-11-3, 10-6-3 WCHA) lock horns again tomorrow night for the conclusion of the two game set. Face-off is set for 7:07 CT from the National Hockey Center in St. Cloud.

The Sky This Week April 12, 2010
The sky this week begins with the moon void-of-course with flat energy from 8:51 am EST until she enters Aries, the inspired warrior, at 9:31 am EST and she will remain in this head first sign through Wednesday afternoon. The moon, representative of our emotional and habitual natures, in Aries brings about strong and assertive energy and reminds us to consider the importance of our own well being first as it is essential in lending to the importance of others and their well being. Aries moons have nice energy to take physical or leadership action, just beware of overexertion and burn out.
On Wednesday the moon returns to new by conjoining the sun at 8:29 am EST. New moons are wonderful for setting an intention and growing on that intention through actions as the moon is growing or waxing to full. By the afternoon the moon will make a lovely aspect to Neptune, the planet of fantasy and illusions, and allow for some daydreaming time. Be sure to keep pen and paper handy so that you may write down any insights you may gain from those daydreams. The moon will go void-of-course at 3:23 pm EST and remain so through the early evening hours before entering Taurus, the desiring stabilizer, at 6:55 pm EST.
Be mindful on your morning commute Thursday as Mars, the planet of action and aggression will be in a tension square aspect to the moon. The moon spends her Thursday and Friday in her exalted and therefore favored sign of sensuality, Taurus, making these nice days to honor your senses with lovely smells, tastes, sights, and touches.
Early Saturday morning at 12:57 am EST the moon will go void-of-course entering Gemini, the curious communicator, at 2:08 am EST where she will remain for the weekend. On Saturday Venus, the planet of love, art, and beauty will come into a harmonious aspect with Jupiter, the planet of good fortune, expansion, and excess, allowing for large expressions in matters of the heart as well as potential for art filled explorations and possible over indulgence. Plan something quite pleasurable for this day. Take action, be sensual, stay curious, and…change the color of your paradigm. (SM)

Chimichanga, with writing and art by the multi-talented Eric Powell, is his first foray into comics for kids. In typical Powell fashion (which should tell you that this is going to be atypical for any other comic book creator) is about a bearded girl named Lula and her adventures with a traveling circus. This is a less bleak tale than The Goon but much more positive, as the main character is spunky and has a can-do attitude. Comparisons to The Goon are unavoidable but I'm going to try as much as possible to analyze the book on its own merits. Originally appearing in 3 issues published through Powell's Albatross Exploding Funny Books label, this review is of the recently released hardcover edition that is published by Dark Horse.
Writer & Artist: Eric Powell
Publisher: Dark Horse
Age: All Ages
The premise of the story is that little Lulu works at her grandfather's traveling circus, but times are tough and the circus doesn't do as well as it used to. They have a bunch of performers that can't seem to draw a crowd like the good old days, and this may or may not have to do with the fact that none of them are really all that amazing.
The Amazing Randy, for example, has the strength of a slightly larger man, and that's his whole shtick ("Gasp at his ability to open pickle jars!"). But we love the characters all the same because they put in so much effort and they're remarkable all the same if not for their qualities as circus performers. Lula trades some of her beard hair to a witch for a strange egg and that egg hatches to become Chimichanga, a mangy monster that Lulu accepts and befriends. Along the way there are problems with the witch and a pharmaceutical company but the core of the book is always that friendship between the Lulu and Chimi.
Chimichanga deals with serious topics in absurd ways, it touches upon themes of love, family, greed, accepting people for who they are, loyalty and human indifference. All the while seen through the innocent eyes of a (bearded) child. The idea of tolerance is spread on every page of the book, whether by offering up examples of how people are intolerant or by showing Lula's immediate acceptance of Chimichanga.
The art is outstanding as usual for Eric Powell. The characters are all unique and well-defined. Chimichanga looks like a giant, shaggy, googly-eyed monster dog. The circus performs reek of "carny" and somehow that's a good thing. They are all amazing at doing average things and it makes the circus scenes very charming. As an example of how the book endeared itself to me I will say that I hate clowns and find them terrifying, but I somehow couldn't help but love Gene the Indifferent Clown. The plot does involve a greedy pharmaceutical company and all those characters look appropriately sleazy. The fact that they have no conscience comes across in their actions and the way they are depicted.
Overall we have a very funny story that is all ages and is filled with strange characters, stranger situations and an underlying warmth from the book's message. Any library would be commended for having this in its children's section and it makes a great gift to fans of awesome books, young or old.
I recommend it strongly and the whole handsome hardcover package will cost you $14.99 at your local fine comic book emporium.

Tyrone Winkleman convicted of kidnapping, robbing army veteran
Tyrone Winkleman faces up to 150 years of imprisonment. He'll be sentenced Thursday, April 17.
GOSHEN — An Elkhart man found guilty of robbing, beating and kidnapping an Army veteran will be sentenced Thursday, April 17, in Elkhart Circuit Court.
Tyrone Winkleman, 34, was convicted after a two-day jury trial in March. The jury found him guilty of robbery, kidnapping, criminal confinement and carjacking. Winkleman faces up to 150 years in prison.
James Armagost, 68, the victim in the case, testified during the trial, giving a detailed account of the night of July 25, 2013.
Armagost said he approached Winkleman outside a hotel on the north side of Elkhart when he thought Winkleman was having a seizure.
As Armagost got closer, Winkleman punched him in the face, breaking Armagost's nose. When Armagost was taken to the hospital the next day, he was told he had 30 pieces of broken bone in his nose.
Winkleman took Armagost's truck keys and drove him around the city, stopping on several occasions to lock Armagost in a shed, to get money from Armagost's bank account at an ATM and to buy alcohol.
Winkleman took Armagost back to the hotel, from where Armagost escaped and called for police. Winkleman was arrested at the hotel, according to the probable cause affidavit for his arrest.
The Elkhart County Prosecutor's Office filed charges against Winkleman for an unrelated incident — a robbery that took place earlier in the day in downtown Elkhart.
Winkleman's sentencing hearing is scheduled for 8:30 a.m.

Beasts of the Southern Wild Movie Reviews
Beasts of the Southern Wild
Release Date: Jun 27, 2012
Genre: Drama
Rating: (PG-13)
User reviews on Beasts of the Southern Wild
Lets face it Hushpuppy and her father are the stars and the sole reason for the success of the movie. Unfortunately, this was a train wreck. The assorted supporting cast of characters wandered aimlessly throughout the movie without any direction. The stereotypes were insulting. The metaphors and symbolism were like a sledgehammer over the head (especially the final scene). There was a total lack of realism in dealing with the tragedies. Too many scenes reminded me of a 6th grade play. Unless you are an independent artsy film lover, just stay away.
This was an absolutely beautiful and magical film and I highly recommend seeing it in the theaters. The atmosphere that the director created in this film is full of mystery and danger and the story moves in between fantasy and reality and I have never seen it done in such a beautiful and effortless way. This film is nothing like i have seen before and it was like a breath of fresh air, I was revived after i saw this movie. It is hard to believe that it is possible to make a fairy tale out of hurricane Katrina but director Benh Zeitlin did exactly that and i praise him fo
A true 5 star independent film. Unforgettable and different. Done is a unique way the reminds me a bit of Bergman. But much grittier and down to earth than that. If there aren't Academy award nominations for this film it will be a crime. If you are a film maven - you cannot mis this film.
This film was absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend seeing it in the theaters. My friend saw this film and could not stop talking about it so I decided to give it a chance and I am so happy I did. The film was beautiful, heartbreaking and magical and in my opinion it is the best film of the year. This film is small but the impact it made on me is big and amazing and I urge you to experience this movie as well. I do not remember the last time I saw such an original and sweet film and it made me very happy.
I'd heard a lot about this movie as it made its way through the festivals earlier this year and it quickly became the "buzziest" movie around. After seeing it, it's not hard to imagine why. This is a hard hitting and yet dreamlike movie that every American should see. It will probably shock many people to learn that such places as the Bathtub still exist in modern day America. Imagine the land of Huckleberry Finn being a reality in 2012. That's the sad truth for the characters in this story, namely a young girl named Hushpuppy who is reared to live alone by her father who knows he won't be around forever. Hushpuppy is kind of a miracle child who finds magic in all sorts of unlikely places and people. She's probably the only character I can think of in a movie who can turn a garbage dump into a magical land of unknown treasures waiting to be discovered. This should be mandatory viewing for every American citizen.
Oh my god oh my god OH MY GOD! Such an AMAZING movie! Absolutely stellar and totally the kind of movie that everyone should see! It's about a destitute community in Louisiana called "The Bathtub" which seems to have been stuck in the last 100 years. There is no such thing as technology there. A little girl named Hushpuppy learns from her father how to survive so that she can live on her own even after he dies - and in the world of "the Bathtub" death can come from anything at any moment. The performance by the little girl who plays Hushpuppy is SO amazing, you have to see it to believe it. She does what even actors who have been around for decades and decades cannot do - she makes you forget that you're watching a movie. There are some parts that are hard to watch, but I think if you approach it with an open mind, you will surprised by how it also opens your heart. The BEST movie of 2012, hands down.
One of my favorite movies ever is "Precious" with the amazing Gabourey Sibide. I saw a trailer for this movie and it seemed to have the same kind of mix of reality and fantasy as "Precious" so I wanted to see it. To be honest, the movie is really confusing and seems more like a dream the director had than an actual story that takes place in the real world. I know there are poor communities in the US, but this one seems to be really extreme and I wasn't sure if they were playing it up for the sake of the movie or if it was an actual place. I hope that people these days don't really live like this and if they do then that's a shame because we're supposed to be the greatest country on Earth. I loved the character of Hushpuppy, the little girl who has to survive in a world that will surely devour her if she lets it. It's a good lesson in surviving the unimaginable but I still think it could have been better if it were less dreamy and more straight reality.
Um okaaayyy. Not exactly sure what to say about this movie because it didn't really feel like a movie, more like one of those movies they make us watch in history class about current events. I wanted to get into the story but I just couldn't. It felt like it was trying to be both a doc**entary and a fantasy and it couldn't pick one. You cant really mesh the two because then it feels really bizarre. The father character in the movie is kind of a pill and I was surprised that he could treat his innocent daughter that way. If you remember all the horrible images of the people who lost their homes and lives during Katrina, you'll think that this movie is just a recap of that kind of tragedy. Except this time there is no hurricane, it's just endless suffering and poverty that the people have to deal with. You might even wish that you could see the old footage from CNN because it makes you glad that you don't live in that world. It's a real kick in the pants, this movie. Pretty slow and not as interesting as it should be.
I liked this movie somewhat but I think it's definitely way too graphic in some ways to watch with your family. I wanted my kids to see a movie about something that has some social relevance so I took them to see this because the reviews were good. It was a good, different movie, the kind that you don't see very often. It kind of feels almost like a doc**entary and to be honest I'm not sure if the people in it were actors or not, they're so believable. But then I think there is such a thing as too much reality and this movie kind of makes you feel sad and hopeless for the people who have to live this way. After watching it, I wished I spent my time actually doing something to help the people of "the Bathtub" than just sitting in a movie theater and watching a story about it. The little girl who plays the main character is absolutely adorable and I wanted to just scoop her out of the screen and into my arms. This is a movie that kids should only see with their parents because they will have many questions about what is in it. Be prepared to have a long discussion afterwards.
Every so often you get to see a movie that's so much more than just a piece of entertainment. You feel almost like you're bearing witness to something you know exists but that you never really understood. "Beasts of the Southern Wild" is one such movie. This movie is touching, tragic, devastating, and uplifting all at the same time. It tell the story of a community in New Orleans that is so poor it almost seems untouched by the modern world. There are no computers, cell phones, internet lines or television. The most advanced technology they have is electricity - and that too only occasionally. The story is told through the eyes of a young girl named Hushpuppy who seems to be touched with a magical awareness that makes her an almost enlightened figure. She knows that what she endures is difficult, but she also knows that the outside world doesn't have use for someone like her. The movie is really well made and I am sure it will win all kinds of awards next year. If you're lucky enough to be near a theater that's playing it, then please please please go see it! Such movies deserve our wholehearted support.

Elkhorn — Criminal charges were filed Friday against a 44-year-old attorney, who allegedly was found in possession of heroin and cocaine during a search of a Lake Geneva apartment.
Stephen M. Compton, 250 Van Bee Circle, has been charged with felony possession of narcotic drugs and bail jumping.
He also was charged with misdemeanor possession of cocaine and drug paraphernalia.
If convicted of the felonies, Compton faces 9-1/2 years in prison and $20,000 in fine.
If convicted of the misdemeanors, he faces 13 months in jail and $5,500 in fines.
The Walworth County Drug Unit arrested Compton along with former Walworth Elementary School teacher Katie M. Luessenhop when they searched her apartment Edwards Boulevard March 7.
Compton appeared in court in custody Friday over video conference. Compton's bond is set at $100,000 cash.
Judge John Race, who was filling in for Judge James Carlson, wouldn't hear the case because of a conflict of interest.
Compton was a Walworth County Court Commissioner until Jan. 31. Compton asked race if he could wave the conflict of interest.

"I think it's better that I not hear it," Race said.
Luessenhop, 26, also faces three counts of felony bail jumping and one felony count of possession of a narcotic drug from the March 7 search.
She already faces charges of felony possession of narcotic drug and misdemeanor possession of cocaine stemming from a Sept. 18 incident at Walworth Elementary School.
She pleaded not guilty to those charges Feb. 25.
According to the Compton's criminal complaint:

The Walworth County Drug Unit executed a search warrant at Luessenhop's apartment around 2:30 a.m. and found her and Compton in her bedroom.
On the nightstand, police found a four inch straw and credit card with powder on it. This tested positive for cocaine.
Police also discovered heroin in the apartment. Police searched Compton's car and found cocaine, heroin and drug paraphernalia.
Compton told police he uses cocaine and heroin together and purchases heroin for $3,000 an ounce and cocaine for $1,500 an ounce.
When Compton was initially arrested, he immediately posted a $2,000 cash bond and was ordered to not make contact with Luessenhop.

Luessenhop was held in custody in lieu of as $10,000 cash bond.
On March 11, a woman came to the Walworth County Jail with $10,000 cash to post Luessenhop's bond. Police ran her driver's license and discovered her license was suspended.
Deputies stopped her vehicle as she was leaving the jail and she admitted to knowing Compton for several years.
She told police that around 3 a.m. she went to a Delavan resort and found bag containing a Trac phone, $10,000 in cash, instruction on what to say if the police questioned her and a map to the Walworth County Sheriff's Department.
There also was an additional $500 cash for her and Luessenhop to split on whatever they needed.
A note also had Compton's phone number and stated, "Katie can never say I bailed her out! Never!"
According to the criminal complaint on Luessenhop's March 7 arrest:
The Walworth County Drug Unit was conducting surveillance on Compton and Luessenhop as part of an ongoing police investigation.
The officers observed the pair driving together in the city of Lake Geneva and the village of Walworth, a violation of Luessenhop's bond conditions.
During a search of the apartment, police found a bindle of heroin, which weighed about one gram.
Luessenhop admitted it was hers and that she got it from Compton.
She also told police that she bought $3,000 worth of heroin days earlier using money she received from Compton.
Luessenhop also admitted to making numerous contacts with Compton.
According to the criminal complaint and police reports on Luessenhop's Sept. 18 arrest:
The Walworth Police Department was dispatched to the elementary school after receiving a report of a disturbance.
Outside of the school, Luessenhop turned over to police a small wrapped container, which she said contained cocaine.
She also handed over a file folder that contained a small plastic bag containing a powder.
Police then searched Luessenhop's handbag and found another small bag containing a powder.
Two of the bags tested positive for heroin and one bag tested positive for cocaine.
After the Sept. 18 incident Compton was cited for disorderly conduct at his home. Compton pleaded guilty to this charge and paid a fine.
Police reports indicate that Compton was Luessenhop's landlord and ex-boyfriend.

Background: We evaluated how comprehensive assessment of coronary artery lesions and their hemodynamic relevance by means of hybrid positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT) imaging would affect decision-making in coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG), compared with using invasive coronary angiography (ICA) alone.Methods: After undergoing ICA, 27 patients (21 men and 6 women; mean SD age, 66 ± 10 years) planned for cardiac surgery were scheduled for myocardial perfusion stress/rest evaluation with [13N]ammonia PET and CT coronary angiography. Only ICA was available to the surgeon. Postoperatively, the performed CABG was compared with the hypothetical strategy based on hybrid PET/CT findings (regional coronary flow reserve [CFR], myocardial perfusion defects). Procedures included CABG (n = 18) alone, CABG combined with valve replacement (n = 6), and CABG combined with isolated valve replacement (n = 3). A total of 56 bypass grafts (28 venous and 28 arterial) and 66 distal anastomoses were placed.Results: CT evaluation showed 93% concordance (66/71) with ICA regarding significant stenoses, with sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of 93.1%, 98.7%, 94.4%, and 98.4%, respectively. In the PET scan, 16 patients had 1 ischemic region, and 12 patients had 1 scar region, including 5 patients who presented with mixed conditions (scar and ischemia). One patient had a completely normal myocardium. Compared with the performed surgery, PET/CT fusion evaluation showed that of the performed anastomoses, 48% had documented ischemia (with a CFR <2 in 86%), 38% were nonischemic (although a CFR value <2 was found in 78%), and 14% had scar tissue (fixed perfusion defect).Conclusions: Although <50% of bypasses were placed to areas with myocardial ischemia, the CFR was low in the majority of nonischemic regions, a finding that may have important prognostic relevance. PET/CT fusion imaging could potentially influence planning for CABG and provide incremental prognostic information.

I found this command here.
The command is structured as a registry modification that will add a "Take Ownership" entry in the standard Windows Explorer file/directory context menu. I can see where it uses cmd.exe, and I can sort of understand what's happening from there.
The registry modification contains several commands, but I'm specifically interested in the command to take ownership and grant permissions on a directory tree:
@="Grant Admin Full Control"
@="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" /r /d y && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F /t"
"IsolatedCommand"="cmd.exe /c takeown /f \"%1\" /r /d y && icacls \"%1\" /grant administrators:F /t"
One of the problems is that - because of the way the command is executed - it explicitly invokes cmd.exe with the /C switch. This causes escape sequences to be required for quotation marks (which I don't entirely understand). The command also contains tokens that I have no idea how to use from the command-line ("takeown", "icacls", etc). On top of that, the command is split onto two separate lines, with a line-break in between - which I assume would cause cmd.exe to attempt to execute it as two separate commands, when it does not appear to be such.
I need to convert command into a script file (one that doesn't open another instance of cmd.exe - presumably a batch), with an explicit directory replacing the "%1". The only restriction at this point is that this script needs to be able to run as a shutdown script in the local Group Policy. I don't trust myself to do it correctly, since I have little understanding of the syntax used in this registry modification. As such, it's pretty risky for me to try to do it myself. Who knows what damage I could cause if I got the syntax wrong.
Therefore I'm asking if anyone can point me in the right direction - bonus points for explicit examples.

Mission and the Review Process
+ View
- Hide
Biomicrofluidics (BMF) is an online-only journal published by the AIP Publishing (AIPP) to rapidly disseminate research in elucidating fundamental physicochemical mechanisms associated with microfluidic and nanofluidic phenomena as well as novel microfluidic and nanofluidic techniques for diagnostic, medical, biological, pharmaceutical, environmental, and chemical applications. Rapid turnaround, multimedia capability, and wide circulation among academic, national, and industrial laboratories are the main features offered by the journal. The Editors, aided by the interdisciplinary and international Editorial Board, are responsible for the content and other editorial matters related to the Journal. Manuscripts deemed appropriate for publication in BMF by the Editor are sent to expert referees for evaluation, and may be sent to another referee for a second review. It is our intention to reach a decision on the disposition of a paper on the basis of no more than two rounds of reviewing.
An author may appeal an Editor's decision to reject a manuscript by making a request to the Editor that the case be reviewed by the Publisher of AIP Publishing. The Publisher will not make direct decisions whether or not a paper should be accepted for publication, but rather will assess whether procedures were followed properly. Additional rounds of review or adjudication would only be called for if proper procedures were not followed.
Criteria for Publication
+ View
- Hide
Papers are accepted for publication in BMF according to the following criteria:
Content: The mission of BMF is to offer prompt multimedia and electronic publication of microfluidic research with biological, medical, or chemical applications. Video clips demonstrating the basic concept or the performance of new microfluidic techniques are encouraged. All publications, including multimedia contents, will be archived by AIP Publishing. To be acceptable for publication in BMF, the submission should be original and interesting to the general microfluidics community or to the medical, life-science or environmental communities with interest in microfluidic applications.
Novelty: Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and novel techniques, BMF only publishes papers containing new techniques or experimental results that have not been submitted elsewhere. Manuscripts that, in the reviewers' or the Editor's opinion, fall short of this standard will not be accepted.
Readability: Manuscripts must be written in correct English. This is the responsibility of the authors, not the Editor or the reviewers. Papers that are judged to be not up to the standards will not be accepted.
Length: Brief Communications should contain no more than 2000 words of text (approximately 3 published pages), reduced, however, by allowances for equations, tables, and figures. An average one-column figure with its caption will displace about 220 words of text. Authors are cautioned that discovery of excess length might not occur until a late stage in publication and would then result in delay and expense. Circumvention of the length limitation by division of a long article into small parts is considered to be contrary to the purpose of this section. Whilst there are no strict length limitations for the other articles, Perspectives and Review Articles should be no longer than 50 published pages (approximately 35,000 words of text including allowances for equations, tables, and figures) and Regular Articles should not exceed 15 published pages (approximately 10,000 words of text including allowances for equations, tables, and figures). Manuscripts deemed to be too long or to require excessive time for reviews will not be accepted.
Format: Information for Contributors is available here.
Bylines: It is the responsibility of the person submitting the paper to ensure that all authors approve the inclusion of their names on the byline. In addition, whenever the name of a coauthor is removed from, or added to, the byline of a paper after the date of submission, we must have a signed concurrence of that coauthor before publication.
Copyright: Authors publishing in Biomicrofluidics will retain copyright and are required to complete an exclusive license to publish agreement. It is a tradition of long standing that submission to the Journal implies that the work has neither been previously copyrighted nor accepted for publication elsewhere. Since completion of the License to Publish Agreement is required before publication, electronic acceptance of the Agreement during the submission process can prevent unnecessary delays. Biomicrofluidics also requires authors to inform the editors if a paper has been previously submitted to another journal, whether or not it is currently active with that journal.
Submission of manuscripts that contain patentable ideas is at the author's risk, and neither BMF nor the AIP Publishing assumes any responsibility in this regard.
Article Types

- Hide
Fast Track:
Fast Track articles replace Brief Communications to report on the most novel, high impact, cutting edge, and technically significant developments in the field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, Fast Track articles have an accelerated review process. Fast Track articles will also receive prioritized consideration for the journal's Editor's Picks and AIP Publishing press releases.
Papers submitted to Fast Track will be initially screened for novelty and quality by the Editors and then reviewed by Editorial Advisory Board members, with a review response in fewer than 14 days. Fast Track authors are requested to respond to reviews within 10 days.
Fast Track articles should not exceed 2000 words (approximately three printed journal pages). Abstract, title, author list, references and acknowledgments are all excluded from the 2000-word limit. However, figures, tables, and equations are included and must be accounted for by calculating a word count equivalent to the space they occupy. Note that the abstract itself should not exceed 100 words.
Perspectives examine the anticipated future directions of a particular topic of importance or growth within the field. Papers in these sections are usually solicited from leading researchers in the subject area, although the Editors welcome proposals from prospective authors. Whilst there are no strict length limitations for Perspectives they should not exceed 50 published pages (approximately 35,000 words of text, reduced, however, by allowances for equations, tables, and figures; an average one-column figure with its caption will displace about 220 words of text) as they extend the review process. Manuscripts deemed to be too long or to require excessive time for reviews will not be accepted.
Review Articles:
Review Articles consist of colloquia that serve to provide an in-depth overview of a particular topic of importance or growth within the field. Papers in these sections are usually solicited from leading researchers in the subject area, although the Editors welcome proposals from prospective authors. Whilst there are no strict length limitations for Review Articles, they should not exceed 50 published pages (approximately 35,000 words of text, reduced, however, by allowances for equations, tables, and figures; an average one-column figure with its caption will displace about 220 words of text) as they extend the review process. Manuscripts deemed to be too long or to require excessive time for reviews will not be accepted.
Regular Articles:
Regular Articles are original contributions that disseminate new research findings that constitute a substantial advance in understanding in a subject within the scope of the journal. Whilst there are no strict length limitations for Regular Articles, contributions longer than 15 published pages (approximately 10,000 words of text, reduced, however, by allowances for equations, tables, and figures; an average one-column figure with its caption will displace about 220 words of text) are discouraged as they extend the review process. Manuscripts deemed to be too long or to require excessive time for reviews will not be accepted.
Fabrication and Laboratory Methods:
The Fabrication and Laboratory Methods section provides a published forum for revolutionary advances in methods underlying micro and nanofluidics, chemical and biological applications of lab-on-a-chip devices, and in-vitro and in-vivo protocols for biological materials. The articles in this section will carry full citation details and are limited to 10 published pages (roughly 6500 words of text, reduced as required to accommodate equations, tables and figures) with an abstract limited to 100 words. The editors also welcome proposals from prospective authors on methods review articles, limited to 50 published pages, covering a method with a broader perspective and assessment of future advancements beyond the scope of a standard article. Authors are strongly encouraged to both examine past articles from the section for style and provide additional supporting material for their submission, including multimedia of the method.

Dear RayRay,
Just had to dash off a quick note and let you know my feelings about the new collection. OMG OMG OMG what are you smoking girlfriend with these clothes? You are a far cry from designers departments these days, in fact, are you in any of them anymore … just asking!! It seems to me that you have gone off the reservation and steered directly to a contemporary collection that might be suited for a JCP girl or maybe a Macy's chick; but deffo bridge and tunnel.
Anyway it seemed to appropriate to send my condolences after seeing the collection. Your inspirations were as you said "This season is really about a Parisian woman in the 1960s – her sensibility, her lifestyle and her confidence. I wanted to create a collection that embodied French bohemia with mod elements – tailored jackets, short shifts, hounds tooth prints and textured tweeds – cool wearable pieces that women want right now." The problem is you went right to the runways of Celine, Chloe, Saint Laurent and god knows who else to get "inspired" and to complicate matters you cheapened the looks even more than they did.
From my point of view, you are treading on very thin ice and trying to hold onto whatever reputation you have left and as my advice has been to you in previous times... toss in that towel and run for the hills while you still have any shred credibility left. Only your best friends would tell you this.
Hopefully, there will be no more notes like this because it hurts my heart to tell you these things but what are friends for??
Kiss kiss... An Ivy lunch soon?
and P.S. you see , even losing the silly hats and the puddling pants, the clothes just don't cut it hon.. so say buh bye and get another styling client instead!
