Is this the ultimate present any young buccaneer could wish for?
Ex-military man Chris Willett has converted a 26ft fishing boat into the perfect pirate play ship for his two-year-old son Caleb.
The 43-year-old, of New Laithe Farm, Upper Denby, said: "I had been researching how to make a pirate ship for some time but all the models I saw online looked tacky so I thought: 'Why not build my own?'"
Former Queen's Guard Chris bought the old boat in Cornwall and has spent four months converting it with friends and his father-in-law Jeff Griffiths.
The completed ship includes a captain's cabin, cannons, access to the hull and a mast topped with a skull and crossbones.

History, Charm and Southern Hospitality
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2013-2017 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for the Village of Pinehurst was approved by the Village Council on March 27, 2012. The CIP is a planning tool designed to aid policy makers in the acquisition and orderly replacement of capital assets. The plan is updated annually to ensure that it is based on the most accurate information available. Adoption of a CIP by the Village Council does not constitute a commitment to fund a particular item, but rather signifies an intent to fund capital outlay at the indicated level during the ensuing years.
The CIP includes improvements with a total estimated cost of $16,004,570 over the next five years. The FY 2012-2016 CIP totaled $18,787,700. This year road resurfacing has been reclassified as and operating expense to give a more standardized comparison with other local governments. Had the $5.5 million for resurfacing in this year's operating projections been classified as capital, this year's comparative CIP total would be $21,500,000, an increase of 14%.
Two (2) capital projects are identified in this year's CIP, one of which was included last year. At the direction of Council, this year's CIP includes funding for the construction of a new Public Services Facility and Downtown Improvements. The Downtown Improvements include construction of the Tuft's Memorial Park, and sand lot and streetscape improvements.
Highlights of the plan include:
Fund balance is projected to be within the Council's adopted policy range of 30%-40% throughout the planning period.
To summarize, the CIP represents a $16 million plan to address the capital improvement needs of the Village. Capital expenditures are driven by the types and levels of service the Village chooses to provide to its citizens. This proposal allows us to maintain the current level of most services to our citizens and expand others. Our projections of revenues and expenditures indicate the Village is in a position to fund the CIP as presented with no impact on the Village's current tax rate.
is a charming, vibrant community which reflects our rich history and traditions.

In the October 2010 issue of MORE, Jodie Foster talks frankly about her childhood, her two sons, what she's looking forward to in her career and the new movie she's directed that stars Mel Gibson—who despite his recent troubles remains a good friend whom she staunchly supports.
Jodie Foster's latest film, The Beaver, stars Mel Gibson as a suburban husband and toy-company CEO who rescues himself from catatonic depression by slapping a beaver puppet on his left hand and speaking (in an Aussie-Cockney accent) through that furry sidekick. His family (including Foster as his wife) finds themselves adapting to his bizarre but healing transformation—for a while, at least. It's a brave and risky film that Foster says has been an "enormous, enormous, enormous emotional challenge for me."
She's referring to finding the right tone for the story, which is about "how close we all are to mental illness and what you have to give up in order to save yourself." But after tapes surfaced of Gibson hurling obscenities, threats and racial slurs at Oksana Grigorieva, his ex-girlfriend and mother of his baby daughter, she faced challenges of a different sort. Industry pundits debated whether Foster's movie could ever be released.
When writer Sheila Weller talked to Foster months before Gibson's Tapegate, Foster extolled he actor's professionalism and said he's the "easiest, nicest person I've ever worked with. . . . The second I met him [working on 1994's Maverick], I said, 'I will love this man for the rest of my life.' " Even after the tapes surfaced and the L.A. sheriff's office opened an investigation into allegations against Gibson of domestic violence (as well as an investigation into allegations of extortion against Grigorieva), Foster told MORE exclusively: "When you love a friend, you don't abandon them when they are struggling. Of course, Mel is an undeniably gifted actor and director, and The Beaver is one of his most powerful and moving performances. But more importantly, he is and has been a true and loyal friend. I hope I can help him get through this dark moment."
Foster also describes her close and complicated relationship with her mother, Brandy, who was her manager when she started acting as a child and whose dreams she lived out on screen. Brandy's "vicarious thrill was, 'You will be respected in ways that I wasn't,' " says Foster. Many of the struggling, hard-luck characters she played were "me telling her story." But with The Silence of the Lambs, "I started to tell my story. I was no longer the one obsessed with surviving as a victim. Now I was the one who saves the victims."
It was when Foster had her children, 12-year-old Charlie and nine-year-old Kit, that she rebelled against her mother after decades of symbiosis. "The hardest time we ever had was when the kids were young," she says. For Brandy, "I think it was about 'You're leaving me' and 'We're not doing this together.' I wasn't gonna pick the [baby] name she wanted, I wasn't gonna do it the way she wanted. And she saw it as a rejection of how she raised us." There was "a test of wills," from "breast-feeding to everything—everything."
For much more from Foster—including why she's vowed never to show her kids another of her films after screening Little Man Tate for them, and why she's looking forward to acting in her sixties and seventies—pick up the October issue of MORE, on newsstands September 28.

All things Mother Earth Living
by Robyn Griggs Lawrence, Editor at Large
trends, green building, green remodeling
It's self-serving to suggest that the topics we've been covering in Natural Home for a decade will emerge as important green building trends in 2010. But all the experts agree: This is the year when everyone will want a green, energy-efficient home. Insulation is sexy. President Obama said so.
Here's the green building trends we think will happen in 2010.
Green Building Trend 1: Modular will be the new straw bale.
The i-house includes ample natural light and outdoor living spaces. Photo Courtesy Clayton Homes.
At the turn of the century, straw bale was a popular dream-house material. (People purchased a lot of books and magazines about straw bale homes and built a decent number of straw bale homes.) Now, prefab homes are the rage—and unlike straw bale, they're pretty easy to build. Prefab home manufacturers have popped up across the country, and they're building affordable, stylish, environmentally friendly homes. Clayton Homes' iHouse, backed by billionaire investor Warren Buffet, provides 723 hip-looking square feet, complete with solar panels, tankless water heaters and bamboo floors. Start dreaming.
Green Building Trend 2: Green remodeling will hang tough in a tough economy.
This year homeowners will capitalize on 2009's buzz about energy efficiency. Green remodels will be good business in 2010 as the Obama Administration continues to promote energy efficiency and clean energy. Now, more than ever, it pays for taxpayers to improve their homes' energy efficiency. Market research firm SBI predicts the U.S. home energy renovation market will grow about 15 percent per year until it reaches $35 billion in 2013. Energy-efficient remodeling and renovating is a bright spot in the still-struggling construction business, SBI says.
Green Building Trend 3: We'll see a lot more "green" building products, and we'll need to ask more questions.
NextGen Research predicts that the global market for green building materials will grow 5 percent per year until it reaches $571 billion in 2013. That growth will trigger innovations in green building technology—and some who just want to get in on the gold rush. On the upside, green products will look and perform better, and designers' creativity won't be limited by finite resources. But buyer beware: It pays to investigate a company's green claims before investing. Third-party certification will also take on more importance in the coming year.
What do you think? Are we overly optimistic? Right on track? Or just predictable? Leave me a comment in the comment section.

Placemeter was created to give people the power of knowing what a place is like before they get there. We collect and serve up-to-the-minute information like how crowded a place is, how long the wait is, and whether it will get more or less crowded in the next hour. Just like people can check the weather outside and the traffic along the way, they can now look up what to expect when they get there.
Under the hood, Placemeter is building the world's first real-time dynamic data layer. Used alongside static map databases, along with weather information, event calendars, and other information, we are able to provide very accurate information and future predictions.
Our data comes from a combination of our network of live video cameras and user reports from our mobile application. We use proprietary computer vision technology to calculate traffic levels from video feeds. With every new camera added to our system, we can provide more accurate information about more places.

Eyehategod: In the Name of Sludge
Words: Brian Giffin
It's election day in the US, yet while most of the rest of the world is holding its breath on the outcome of what would prove not to be as close as the pundits called it, Eyehategod guitarist Jimmy Bower has other far more personal things on his mind.
"I didn't vote," he says in a deep NOLA drawl. "I couldn't give a shit. Actually, today I was at the hospital with my wife. She's pregnant. We're gonna have a little girl."
Parenting brings with it a whole new set of priorities and often causes people to change their ways of life. Jimmy Bower makes it pretty clear, however, that he's not about to hang up his sticks for a while yet.
"No man," he says, "I'm not about to make big changes to what I'm doing or how I'm living my life. If anything, it's given me a bit of clarity about what I'm doing and the goals I want to achieve. But in the end, I'm just real lucky that I've been able to make a living from being a professional musician, because so many aren't able to do that."
Since establishing Eyehategod in 1988, Bower has built a solid career for himself as the drummer behind some of southern USA's greatest heavy bands: Crowbar, Corrosion of Conformity and, most notably, Down. I last spoke to him when he was in Australia with Corrosion of Conformity – "Whoah," he begins with a chuckle, "that was a looong time ago!" - on a tour with Pantera, on what would be that band's last. More recently, Bower visited with Down as they went around the country with Heaven and Hell. Coincidentally, that would also turn out to be the final tour for the headliners when Ronnie James Dio passed away less than a year later.
"Oh man, you know it was an incredible honour to have been able to jam with him," Bower says warmly. "As a kid, growing up listening to 'Don't Talk to Strangers' and 'Holy Diver' and then getting to play shows with him and having Black Sabbath into the deal as well, man it was just an amazing time. A real honour to have met him and to have been able to jam with him. He was always real supportive of us and just so down to earth and friendly."
It is in his original role as a guitarist that he returns to Australia this week, bringing with him New Orleans sludge pioneers Eyehategod, the band he formed 24 years ago with drummer Joey LaCaze. Except for a revolving roster of bass players over the years – Gary Mader currently has the job – the group has maintained a consistent line-up since second guitarist Brian Patton signed on in 1993. Together, the band has created some of the most harrowing and disturbing sludge metal ever manifested, riddled with feedback, swamp-born mutated Sabbath riffs and infected with Mike Williams' tortured screams. His contribution to the form has earned Jimmy Bower the name Godfather of Southern Metal and his band is revered as a foundation stone of the movement. Bower just takes it all in his stride.
"You know, it's great when people say that about us, but we're just doing what we love the way we love to do it," he says humbly. "If people are turned on to what we do enough to wanna do it themselves, then that's great. It's awesome. But you know we would still be playing what we do even if no one else did it or wanted us to."
Apart from some compilation material that has emerged in the last few years, Eyehategod haven't released an album since 2000 and for the best part of a decade their ongoing status hasn't always been clear. Not only were most of the band busy with other projects, but Nature herself dealt them – along with many, many other people - a crushing hand in August 2007.
"Well after [Hurricane] Katrina, it took a while for us to get things back together," Bower says with considerable understatement. "We didn't even know where Mike was for a month. It was a real messed up, real crazy time for us… for the whole of New Orleans."
Given their chequered history since that disaster (Williams, by the way, ended up in prison for six months on a heroin charge, during which time he got clean), fans were as surprised as they were delighted by the news of Eyehategod's Australian tour, which kicks off today in Brisbane. Jimmy Bower is happy to be finally returning.
"I have some great memories of playing in Australia," he says. "Great weather, great beer. Great weed! And you know, some really great, great bands. Some of the greatest bands that inspired us came from Australia. It's gonna be a great tour, man. I'm really looking forward to it."

U.S. 20 upgrade east of Elkhart resumes, work will take longer than first planned
The work, which resumed in March after a winter hiatus, will be done in mid-2015 instead of this year.
Get used to the barriers and heavy equipment along U.S. 20 east.
The upgrade of the roadway, east of C.R. 17 to S.R. 15, is going to take longer than anticipated, finishing in mid-2015, according to the Indiana Department of Transportation. It was originally scheduled to finish this coming fall.
In explaining the delay, Tony Mayo, communications and customer service director at the Indiana Department of Transportation's Fort Wayne office, said it took longer than expected to acquire the land needed to permit the expansion. U.S. 20 east of C.R. 17 is to be widened from two lanes, one going in each direction, to five lanes, two travel lanes each way with a center turn lane.
The work, meant to reduce congestion along the busy roadway, the main connector between Elkhart and Middlebury, started, in earnest, last August. After taking a break for the cold winter weather, work resumed March 24.
Here are particulars from INDOT of what to expect:
- The most immediate focus is around the dip just west of S.R. 15, called Getz ditch. The embankment will be reinforced to permit removal of "unsuitable soils and culvert replacement," INDOT spokeswoman Laurel McCurdy said in an email. Ditch, storm sewer and retention basin work will occur simultaneously.
- A barrier between the U.S. 20 travel lanes and the work zone around Getz ditch will soon be extended farther west to around C.R. 21 on the east side of Elcona Country Club. That will permit construction and widening of the roadway on the south side of the existing corridor.
- Widening on the north side of U.S. 20 in the C.R. 21-S.R. 15 section will follow later in the summer, with the upgrade in that stretch to be done by the fall.
- Because of the ongoing work, the speed limit in the C.R. 21-S.R. 15 section is 40 mph with 11-foot wide lanes. The speed limit in the C.R. 19-C.R. 21 section is also 40 mph, but there's no change to lane width.
- The upgrade west of C.R. 21 to around C.R. 17 is to be done by the middle of the summer next year.
The project has a price tag of $9.8 million, and Niblock Excavating of Bristol is handling the work. More than 10 structures along U.S. 20 had to be demolished to make way for the expanded roadway, and some living in the section expressed concern ahead of the project, worried that a wider thoroughfare will mean even more traffic.

Seven Psychopaths - Trailer
A struggling screenwriter inadvertently becomes entangled in the Los Angeles criminal underworld after his oddball friends kidnap a gangster's beloved dog.PT2M36S http://www.theage.com.au/action/externalEmbeddedPlayer?id=d-28k0i 620 349 October 31, 2012
Probably few actors know more about playing psychopaths than Christopher Walken.
So it seems appropriate the 69-year-old New Yorker plays one of the title characters in the black comedy Seven Psychopaths - even though he politely acknowledges he's nothing like any of them.
I've played a lot of strange, twisted people, but in fact my life is very normal.
''I've played a lot of strange, twisted people, but in fact my life is very normal,'' the quirky star says with amusement. ''I've been married for 46 years and I live in a nice house, my grass is always cut, I pay my bills and my cat loves me!''
Gone to the dogs ... Walken in a scene from Seven Psychopaths.
Seven Psychopaths stars Colin Farrell as Marty Faranan, a writer working on a screenplay about psychopaths. Past deadline and desperate, he seeks help for inspiration from best friend Billy (Sam Rockwell). Billy's well-intentioned attempts spiral into danger when he and partner Hans (Walken) introduce Marty to their dognapping business, in which they steal unattended dogs and return them for the reward money.
Things get even worse when they discover they've kidnapped a shih-tzu belonging to a vengeful gangster (Woody Harrelson).
The film reunites writer-director Martin McDonagh, who was nominated for an Oscar for writing In Bruges, with the Golden Globe-winning star of that film, Colin Farrell. McDonagh also worked with Walken and Rockwell when they starred in his Broadway comedy A Behanding in Spokane in 2010.

''Chris and I spent about six months together doing eight shows a week so by the time we got to this movie, he's like my uncle and I know him really well,'' reflects 43-year-old Rockwell, whose credits include Charlie's Angels, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind and Iron Man 2.
''I have a strange relationship with Chris because he's my hero and this iconic sort of actor god but he's also an actor that takes chances, and that makes him dangerous.''
In person sitting in a Toronto hotel room, there is nothing dangerous about the softly spoken veteran with gravity-defying hair who is best known for films such as Annie Hall (1977), The Deer Hunter ('78), King of New York ('90) and Pulp Fiction ('94). But he also insists it wasn't a stretch to play a psychopathic dognapper. ''If they say you're a psychopath, that's all you need to know; that you're seen by reflection,'' Walken says.
''I was once in a Shakespeare company and had to play a king and I said to one of these old actors, 'I'm a neighbourhood guy from Queens, I know nothing about kings.' He said, 'Don't worry about it, you will be seen by reflection.' He said people think you're a king if you get treated like a king, and I believe that the audience will believe I'm a psychopath if people in the film say I am.''
Critics are singling out Rockwell for his performance in Seven Psychopaths, but he confesses he's still not sure what a psychopath is. ''There's a book called The Psychopath Test that I looked at, but I did not take the test,'' he says.
Another character certain to endear herself to audiences is the shih-tzu dog, Bonnie.
''That dog was fantastic and Walken loved that dog, too,'' Rockwell says.
''We would sit it on the table and it would just stay there on its mark for hours with no yapping at all; it was really weird how well-behaved that dog was!''
Australian actor Abbie Cornish played Marty's long-suffering girlfriend, Kaya, and also got high marks from Rockwell.
''God bless Abbie Cornish,'' he says. ''She's a brave woman to be in this movie and for her to almost do a cameo in terms of size of the role was a testament to how popular McDonagh is, that she blessed us with her presence.
''I've been a fan since she did Candy, with Heath Ledger, and then Bright Star, and it's a tough movie for women, but she showed great strength in the film and was brilliant.''
GENRE Comedy.
CRITICAL BUZZ Great cast, good reviews and In Bruges connection should help.
STARS Colin Farrell, Sam Rockwell, Woody Harrelson.
DIRECTOR Martin McDonagh.
RELEASE Thursday.

Summer Fun On The Göksu
An inspiration to the Ottoman dynasty's poet and composer sultans, this elegant building is a museum today. Open daily except Mondays and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tel: +90 216 332 33 03
This hunting pavilion which rises in the middle of a large flower garden on the shores of the Bosporus was built in the mid-19th century at the behest of Sultan Abdulmejid.
Don't miss this graceful fountain in the garden of the Küçüksu Pavilion, which was used by the Ottoman sultans for rest and recreation, including horseback riding and target practice. Built in 1806 in memory of Mihrişah Valide Sultan, the mother of Selim III, the fountain is noteworthy for its domed roof and ornamentation.
This excursion ground, where fairs were held, barrel organs played and Turkish theater in the round was performed in Ottoman times, has reverted today to a beach. Boasting a matchless panorama here at the narrowest point of the Bosporus, it offers children's parks and exercise equipment as well as picnicking and sunbathing areas.
Built by Sultan Bayezid I, the 'Lightning Bolt', in the 14th century, this fortress for which the quarter is named is well worth seeing even though a portion of it has disappeared over time. Standing in all its splendor on the banks of the Göksu, it continues to be one of the Bosporus's loveliest adornments with its restaurants and tea gardens strung out along the shore.
Although the museum at the entrance to the castle is closed for now, you can nevertheless savor the pleasure of Istanbul in the large adjacent park, where elegant old mansions leaning against the castle's historic walls, century-old wooden houses lining the narrow streets, modest coffeehouses, scattered benches and the incessant calls of birds await you with naive, old-fashioned charm.
Just next to the waterside walls of the Anadolu Hisar you will spot a small garden enclosed by a wall. Hidden here is one
of Istanbul's oldest open-air mosques. Built as a place of worship for the soldiers who were preparing for the conquest
of Istanbul, it dates to 1396.
The oldest seafront mansion on the Bosporus, this 'yalı' is just one of many rare examples you will see on a Göksu excursion along with those of Kıbrıslı Mehmet Pasha, Remzi Bey, Mustafa Pasha, Sedat Bey and Salih Mehmet Efendi. Built in 1699, the Amcazâde Hüseyin Pasha Yalı is currently covered with a 'paravent' close to its original color as it undergoes restoration.
An ancient tradition is being revived on the waters of the Göksu, the famed 'Sweet Waters of Asia' and scene of legendary caïque excursions in Ottoman times. In writer Salâh Birsel's words, the Göksu's 'exquisite hour' begins at five in the afternoon with cruises outings that continue right up to sunset. Various places along the river are organizing the excursion, which runs between Hisar and Baruthane Çayırı.

London Mayor Boris Johnson mounts BMX stunt in Olympics legacy bid
15:04 14 July 2011
Balancing uncertainly astride a BMX stunt bike at the top of a steep slope, London Mayor Boris Johnson this morning unveiled a multi-million pound deal for grassroots sport to ensure the Olympics legacy itself does not slide downhill and crash after 2012.
A BMX course in Walthamstow was the location, where the ramps had been completed just the evening before by volunteers in a deprived part of east London without many custom-built facilties for youngsters to play in.
There was to be no crash by bicycle-fan Mayor Boris for the mass ranks of snappers at the event, as he heaved the bike and his bulk safely, if unspectacularly, over two sets of ramps.
Unfortunately for Kate Hoey, the Mayor's commissioner for sport, she toiled heavily on her bike to reach the summit of just one mound.
Speaking within the Labour-controlled borough of Waltham Forest, Mayor Johnson was quick to hail how valuable sport is. He also issued a warning to councils earmarking leisure venues for closure as part of Town Hall belt-tightening austerity measures.
"This is something that is incredibly important," said Mayor Johnson. "I want it to be a boost for young people in London. I have been looking at the issue of obesity and we have a serious problem in this city, so the more that happens to tackle it, the better.
"London has also high rates of child poverty and high rates of unemployment. Sport is valuable.
If it's true as they've been telling me that lots of kids came out here last night and started playing, then that's a fantastic thought."
"I don't want local councils to take what we're doing as an excuse to cut back their own funding."
Walthamstow cycling coach Mike Beasant is someone to whom Mrs Hoey could go for lessons to boost her bike power. He explained to London24.com exactly what the all-new BMX pan means for youngsters of the Highams Park Coaching Centre.
"The Olympic pathway starts here and goes into the future. If we spot people we can progress them through and refer them on; through the Go Ride group, I can nominate bikers to UK cycling talent team. It hasn't happened in this are there has not been a club in this area to do that."
But creating the next crop of super-fit athletes is not the whole purpose, he insisted.
"Bike riding gives you confidence. BMX is a technical sport, so the more complex it gets the more confidence you gain. Teenage testosterone might make some kids feel overly confident with tricks, but the bike will level that out because you fall off. But you gain confidence and enthusiasm and they apply in all areas of life.
Walthamstow's BMX course is one of 26 community sports projects and 14 big projects, designed to help seal the legacy of the 2012 Olympics.
Costing more than £12m and matched by the same figure from businesses and charity, the scheme includes micro-grants of up to £1,500 for small community groups.

Commander Curt Brown and Pilot Steve Lindsey will spend a good part of their day checking out important spacecraft systems for entry and landing. At about 7:20 a.m. Central time, the commander and pilot will begin the flight control system checkout, powering up one auxiliary power unit and evaluating the performance of aerodynamic surfaces and flight controls. The flight crew will perform a reaction control system hot fire about 8:30 a.m., followed by a test of the communications system.
At about 12:30 p.m. Central time, the crew will begin stowing the equipment used to conduct the mission's array of on-board science activities. Just before turning in for the night, Lindsey will stow the Ku-band antenna, which provides high data-rate relay and television.
The flight control teams in the Mission Control Center are also preparing for Saturday's landing at Kennedy Space Center, Florida. Preliminary weather forecasts indicate generally favorable weather to support Saturday's landing at 11:06 a.m. Central time. Remnants of tropical storm Mitch have passed through the area and moved off Florida's east coast.
Discovery is orbiting the Earth every 95 minutes at an altitude of about 341 statute miles with all systems operating well.

Richard Linklater's new film "Boyhood" was one of the most buzzed about films when it premiered earlier this year at the Sundance Film Festival. The movie has since won a coveted Silver Bear award for Best Director at the Berlin Festival and wowed audiences with a special prize at SXSW.
IFC is releasing the Sundance hit which features a career making performance by newcomer Ellar Coltrane.
Linklater is known for his eye for talent, ear for pop culture savvy dialogue and "fly on the wall" approach to narrative filmmaking. What was so refreshing about the movie is that the filmmaker took a risk on an unknown talent and it paid off.
Richard Linklater collaborates again with Ethan Hawke who first worked with the auteur in Before Sunrise. The pair have created their own trilogy of films that have spanned twenty years and earned them an Academy Award for "Before Sunset" which won Best Screenplay in 2005.
"Boyhood" is historic because Linklater follows young Mason from ages 6 to 18.
The audience is allowed to experience the awkward growing pains over 12 years of Ellar Coltrane's adolescence from grade school to his graduation day from highschool.
The movie is unique because the young actor is so riveting to watch. We are first introduced to the adorable actor who looks like the mirror image of Ethan Hawke who plays his slacker father.
Shooting on the film was done during short periods of time from 2002 to 2013. The film is so relatable because everyone has their own childhood experiences.
"Boyhood opens via IFC Films in limited release on July 11th.
We recommend that you take a break from the summer fare of rebooted superhero sequels and check out Linklater's latest work which speaks to a whole new generation.
Boyhood stars Ellar Coltrane, Patricia Arquette, Ethan Hawke and Lorelei Linklater.
Checkout some of Richard Linklater's classic films: Our favorites are Dazed and Confused, Before Sunrise, Waking Life and Gen X flick Slacker.

Chambers poised for upset
Story & photo by Rick Scharmberg
"Fast" Eddie Chambers (35-1, 18 KOs), of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania will realize his dream of fighting for the heavyweight championship of the world next Saturday, when he challenges WBO/IBF champion Wladimir Klitschko (53-3, 47 KOs), of Kiev, Ukraine at the Esprit Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany. Chambers, rated #1 in the WBO and #3 in the IBF, earned his shot with impressive wins over former WBC heavyweight champion Sam Peter and unbeaten contender Alexander Dimitrenko.
Chambers, who is a 9-1 underdog, said, "I worked hard up in the Poconos, doing what I need to do to be a champion. This is a great, great opportunity, and I am motivated to work harder and with more intensity than ever."
Chambers was born in Pittsburgh, but moved to Philadelphia in 2002 to get the best training. By that time, Eddie, now 27, was already 9-0, with 5 knockouts. He learned his craft in that fistic hotbed called the Blue Horizon, running off seventeen straight wins there over all types of competition. It should be noted that one of those victories came against Ross Puritty, who stopped Klitschko early in his career.
In boxing, it is not wise to base assumptions on performances against common opponents, but people, and TV networks, like to do it anyway. Besides Ross Puritty, both Klitschko and Chambers fought hard-punching Nigerian Sam Peter. Both fighters defeated Peter by decision, but Wladimir had to get off the floor three times to do it, while Eddie made it look easy.
Even though Wlad's older brother Vitali holds the WBC title, and David Haye the WBA belt, Wladimir has long been considered to be the dominant heavyweight champion. With his size advantage – Wlad is nearly 6'7" tall – and six-year unbeaten streak, many opponents enter the ring just hoping to survive.
Is there a chance of Chambers showing him too much respect? "I will respect him by training hard and coming in at one hundred percent. I am ready for this fight. I'm not going to allow what happened to his other challengers happen to me," he said.
An argument can be made that Chambers represents Wladimir Klitschko's most formidable challenger to date.
Some of Klischko's recent challengers, such as former champions Hasim Rahman, Chris Byrd (2nd fight), and Lamon Brewster (2nd fight) were past their primes, and others such as Calvin Brock, Tony Thompson, and arguably Ray Austin were relatively untested when they faced him.
"I'm sure every other fighter who faced him would say the same thing," stated Chambers. "But without a doubt, I bring more to the table than they did. I have different dimensions to my style that will make his night difficult. He is a big guy and has speed, but I have more speed, movement, and I am a better inside fighter. I can get close to him with my foot speed and pose problems."
Eddie's trainer and manager Rob Murray Sr. agrees, "I've been watching Klitschko for the last few years, and we match up better with him than he does with us. Eddie's style is wrong for him. Eddie has a great chin, hand speed, eyesight, athleticism, and agility. Klitschko is one dimensional. He fights in a European style and wants to keep you on the outside.
"Things like that annoy HBO," continued Murray Sr. "On the inside, he grabs and holds and wears you down. We're not doing that. Fans want to see fighters get it on and knuckle down. If you can have Tony Thompson carry him eleven rounds on a bad knee, Eddie is light years ahead of these guys, and he is not afraid to go to Europe."
Indeed, this fight will represent the third time Chambers has fought in Germany. On January 26, 2008, he went through a learning curve of sorts, and lost a decision to dangerous and highly-rated Russian Alexander Povetkin in an IBF title eliminator. The defeat is the only blemish on an otherwise perfect record.
Chalking the Povetkin fight up to experience, Eddie went on to handily defeat Peter, and then Alexander Dimitrenko in his most recent bout last July 4 in Hamburg.
"I am used to it. I fought in front of hostile crowds before. German fans are very knowledgeable, and I am looking forward to fighting there again," said Chambers.
As usual, Chambers be at a big size disadvantage. Weighing in between 215-220 pounds, he is considered a small heavyweight when compared to today's behemoths. But, Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield, and Muhammad Ali were three great fighters who fought in that weight range and defeated much bigger men.
All three possessed something special to allow them to excel. Tyson had power, Holyfield had conditioning and determination, and Ali, well, was "The Greatest".
Chambers also has something special. He can stand in front of you and make you miss. He can frustrate you, and make you fight harder than you might want to.
Trainer Rob Murray Sr. states, "I have been in this sport for forty-five years, and no one I worked with has more talent than Eddie. Klitschko is very strong and was taught to become a very skilled fighter. But his athleticism isn't as good. Eddie could have been a Division 1 or 2 point guard in basketball. He could have been a cornerback or safety in football. He can play tennis. He has God-given athletic talent that you can only be born with."
Considering his size advantages and the tear he's been on, one has to wonder if there is even the slightest chance that Wladimir will look past "Fast" Eddie.
"I don't think so," said Eddie. "He respects what I bring to the table, and will prepare for me like no other. I don't think he will ever come into the ring out of shape, and he hasn't overlooked anyone since Corrie Sanders. He overlooked him, and you saw what happened."
Rob Murray Sr. certainly believes in his fighter, and closed by stating, "There is no such thing as an insurmountable challenge. Klitschko is not insurmountable to us. I expect Eddie to win and win handily, and possibly stop him."
"It will be a great night of fighting, and the fans will enjoy it," said Chambers. "Watch for a great upset."

Twitter Opera & Tagging the Smithsonian: Arts Innovation in Social Media
by Lauren Bacon | August 19th, 2009 | Comments
Last week I blogged about Vancouver arts groups who are using Twitter to deepen their relationships with new and existing audiences, and I'd like to point to a couple more intriguing examples of social media tools finding new and wildly creative uses in the hands of arts organizations.
The first is an iPhone application I discovered recently, called The Extraordinaries. The Extraordinaries is a micro-volunteering application that enables iPhone users like myself to spend a couple of minutes here and there (I use it when I'm waiting at bus stops, or standing in line at the sandwich shop) tagging images for art galleries and libraries. (The current list of organizations who are benefiting from the service includes the Smithsonian, the Library of Congress, and the Brooklyn Museum, as well as groups from New Zealand, France, Portugal, Australia and Holland.)
Tagging -- which is all I've been able to do via the app so far -- is actually only the tip of the iceberg. The Extraordinaries' website lists the following possibilities for future development:
- Translating a nonprofit's Website into a foreign language
- Recording the GPS location of potholes and city infrastructure issues for municipalities
- Identifying birds for the Cornell Lab of Ornithology
- Tagging images for the Smithsonian
- Transcribing ancient texts for ReCaptcha
- Reviewing congressional bills for hidden pork
- Fact checking for reporters
I'm really excited about where this could go. I encourage my fellow iPhone users to check it out -- and if your organization could benefit from this kind of micro-volunteering, why not apply to be a pilot partner?
The second story I want to share may already be familiar to those of you in the classical music community, but for the rest of you: Did you know there's an opera being composed on Twitter?
Yes, you read that right. So far there are 7 acts, and the entire libretto has been written in 140-character bursts by Twitter users. From what I can make out, the plot is rather serpentine, but holy heck is this a fun project! Talk about crowdsourcing your content! Anyone can tweet a line of the opera by using the hashtag #youropera, or sending their tweet to @youropera.
The whole thing is a project of the Royal Opera House in London, rather a grande dame of the classical scene, known as a fancy-pants venue for ballet & opera. The Twitter opera is part of their Deloitte Ignite series, a 3-day festival that's a smidge more avant-garde than the Opera House's usual fare -- but still, I have to give them props for going out on a limb. A Twitter opera might seem a risky venture for far smaller, edgier companies, and I applaud the ROH for stepping up and giving it a shot.
And you know, even if your company isn't ready to let your Twitter followers write your next show, you can always follow the example of Next to Normal, the Broadway musical whose rise to success seems to have been at least partially fuelled by its clever use of Twitter.
What's next? All I know is that the arts community is sure to keep uncovering innovative ways to use social media to create, connect and inspire. More news as it happens…

BOULDER - For Colorado basketball fans, the countdown began shortly after Sabatino Chen's apparent buzzer-beater on Jan. 3 in Tucson was waived off, forcing an overtime that the Buffs, their followers and much of the college hoops world believed was unnecessary.
A 41-day wait is done. The countdown is at 0, and zero hour is 8 p.m. Thursday at the Coors Events Center. Colorado vs. No. 9 Arizona. Call it a very significant Pac-12 Conference game, the Buffs' rematch for redemption, or merely the next one on the schedule - but you're safe to assume it's gone a bit beyond that.
Has it been difficult for the Buffs not to anticipate Arizona's Valentine's visit?
"Without a doubt," sophomore guard Askia Booker said. His personal countdown began "right when that call was made at the end of regulation. It kind of got to us . . . I think it's probably one of the reasons we lost in overtime. Just knowing how we took that loss in Arizona, we were thinking we can't wait to meet up with them again. Now we know it's right around the corner. We'll be prepared."
In fact, CU coach Tad Boyle says the Buffs will be better prepared than they were on Jan. 3. That might be hard to believe given his team's first 16 or so minutes against the then-No. 3 Wildcats. With 4:30 left in the first half, the Buffs led 30-13. But finishing out the first half was a problem for CU and finishing out the game was an ever bigger one.
In the 10 games since that 92-83 overtime loss, Boyle believes his team's maturity level has climbed a couple of notches. A rare road sweep through Oregon last week left the Buffs above .500 (6-5) for the first time in Pac-12 play this season. CU picked up very few style points in the pair of wins - 48-47 over No. 19 Oregon, 72-68 over Oregon State.
But, hey, it's mid-February and style points aren't as critical as 'W's. The Buffs apparently have come to this realization. They've won five of their last six and have bought in to Boyle's "get-a-stop, get-a-win" theory.
It paid off nicely in Oregon, said sophomore guard Spencer Dinwiddie, and has been the Buffs' biggest area of improvement since opening conference play in Arizona.
"I've seen a lot of growth, especially in our commitment to defense," said Dinwiddie, whose 24 points at Oregon State came on a night of perfect shooting (six-of-six from the field, including four-of-four threes, and eight-of-eight free throws). "Now we understand how much stops matter . . . that's the biggest improvement and the most important improvement. If we can stop you, we can win. That showed at Oregon, beating a team and only scoring 48 points."
The new-found commitment to 'D' and getting critical stops has put CU into the Pac-12 lead in scoring defense (64.2 ppg) and field goal percentage defense (40.6). Showing well in both categories on Thursday night would benefit the Buffs.
Arizona leads the conference in scoring (76.2 ppg) and features two of the top nine scorers (Mark Lyons is fourth at 17.5 ppg, Solomon Hill is ninth at No. 9 at 15.4). Plus, Solomon Hill is second in three-pointers made per game (2.2) and third in three-point percentage (44.4).
The Wildcats also are No. 3 in the Pac-12 in rebounding margin (+3.06) despite not having a rebounder ranked in the league's top 25. The Buffs' Andre Roberson is the conference leader (11.1 rpg), but the team is No. 6 (+0.1).
The Buffs were out-rebounded 44-33 in the loss in Tucson and allowed the Wildcats to shoot 43.1 percent from the field. CU finished at 47.5, with one-for-nine marksmanship in the OT dragging that figure down. But the Buffs' biggest shortcoming on Jan. 3 was losing their big lead due to late turnovers and no late stops.
Said Boyle: "I think we got soft defensively and they started driving the ball. They scored and got fouled in one possession and made a free throw in four seconds, they scored on another possession in like five seconds late in the game . . . their crowd got into it and then everybody got into it. And the officials got into it, too."
If the Buffs have learned to play the defense that Boyle demands, their next rediscovery needs to come on offense. CU is averaging 65.7 points a game, ninth in the league. In wins against Stanford and California in the last home stand, five and four CU players, respectively, were in double figures. That hasn't happened since, with no more two Buffs reaching double figures in each of the next three games.
Nonetheless, CU won two of the three, and Booker reflected, "Before, we didn't know how to play to win if we weren't shooting the ball well. Lately, personally, I haven't been shooting the ball well (8-of-41 in the past three games). But I've tried to figure out other things to do, such as rebounding or getting Spencer or Andre certain shots that they're going to knock down. Or Josh (Scott), or 'Sab' (Chen) or 'XJ' (Xavier Johnson), whoever it may be.
"But we're just doing whatever it takes to finish out the game and come out on top, whether it's one point over Oregon or three or four against whoever it is. If we can figure out a way to win games . . . that's what we're starting to do. At the end of the day, whatever (the score) is, we came out on top. We did what we needed to do. At the end of the day, it's about defense and rebounding."
Boyle acknowledged Booker's offensive struggles, but noted Booker "shoots better at home" and said he expects the struggles to end. Boyle also referenced Carlon Brown's mid-season shooting slump last season and the credited the senior's perseverance in pulling out of it. Booker, said Boyle, has the same work ethic.
If the Buffs won't lack for motivation Thursday night, neither should the Wildcats. Arizona suffered a surprising 77-69 home loss on Sunday to Cal, dropping the Wildcats into a three-way tie for first with UCLA and Oregon (all are 8-3). CU has climbed into a four-way tie for third with USC, Stanford and Cal (all are 6-5 and the Buffs have beaten the other three).
A sellout crowd (11,064) is expected Thursday, giving the Buffs 14 (12-2 record) thus far in Boyle's three seasons. Booker, Dinwiddie and their coach admitted that being overhyped early was a consideration but not a concern.
Said Booker, who scored 18 points in the OT loss to the Wildcats: "In the first meeting at Arizona we were very hyped. And I think that's exactly why we came out and shot the ball the way we did. We were all prepared and ready, mentally and physically. If we can come in, especially at home, with that same intensity and contain it, then finish out the game with defense and rebounding, we should be just fine."
Being overhyped, added Dinwiddie, "actually might be a challenge we face. Everybody knows what happened in Tucson. Our crowd is going to be into it. Our crowd is already into it; the game's been sold out for a very long and it's supposed to be rocking. I understand being overhyped, but in some cases it's better to have that type of intensity and drive and focus to win a game as opposed to not taking it serious."
Staying in control but playing with intensity, said Boyle, "will be a good maturity check for our guys . . . (revenge) is on our fans' minds, there's no question, and I'm sure it's on our players' minds. But it's a big game because it's the next game. I've got a lot of respect for Arizona, their staff, their players and their program. It was a disappointing loss for us and we certainly would like to get it back. The only way to get it back is to try and win on Thursday."
Buffs the planet over have been counting the days - and it's been a long, excruciating wait.

Game of the Day: SAFC 3 Blackburn 0
by Ashley Houghton
Black Cats kick off 2011 with home win.
Sunderland 3 Blackburn Rovers 0
1st January 2011
Sunderland moved sixth in the Barclays Premier League with a comprehensive win over Blackburn Rovers at the Stadium of Light.
The Black Cats started the New Year in fine fashion with goals from Danny Welbeck, Darren Bent and Asamoah Gyan as Steve Bruce's side recorded their sixth home league win of the season.
The hosts were ahead after just ten minutes when Ryan Nelsen partially cleared Ahmed Elmohamady's cross, but his header fell only as far as Welbeck and the striker returned fire with a smart half-volley that deflected off the New Zealand defender's chest and past a stranded Mark Bunn.
The lead was doubled ten minutes later as Elmohamady's delivery invited Bent to squeeze in front of Grant Hanley and the England international directed a glancing header past Bunn.
Blackburn offered little in reply, though El Hadji-Diouf should have at least hit the target when Morten Gamst Pedersen's free-kick found him unmarked at the far post and he blasted over from five yards.
Jordan Henderson went close to finding a third early in the second-half but his long range drive shaved the post as the Black Cats exerted their dominance.
Henderson was the provider of Gyan's late goal; his pass allowed the Ghanaian to drive deep into the box and curl the ball round the retreating Brett Emerton and into Bunn's bottom corner.
Sunderland: Gordon, Bardsley, Bramble, Elmohamady (Angeleri, 85), Ferdinand, Richardson, Malbranque, Henderson, Meyler, Bent (Gyan, 81), Welbeck (Zenden, 69).
Subs not used: Mignolet, Da Silva, Riveros, Cook.

Top 10: If laptops were cars
We pick 10 laptops and their car equivalents
FLUSHED WITH THE fumes of an incredibly old printer cartridge that we found down the back of a filing cabinet, The INQUIRER has spent a portion of its afternoon considering what cars laptops would be if they were cars and not laptops.
We've picked through some of the more recent hardware to find its way into our offices and come up with some pretty blunt reasons why some devices are more like a Lada than others. We like it, you might too, whether the laptop manufacturers will, we cannot say.
Love or hate Apple, it can't be denied that Macbooks are the Aston Martin of laptops. Like the Aston Martin, the Macbook is expensive and tasteful - a rare combination. As James bond fans will know, an Aston Martin has beautiful design and outstanding engineering. On top these fine qualities, Macbooks have lots of power underneath their bonnets.
When The INQUIRER office discussed the Vaio over our lunch time pint, we used words to describe Sony's protégé including expensive, flash, and loud, especially with those luminous covers. That's why we christened it the Ferrari. Like the flash car, the Sony Vaio shouts "look at me", and is a must for anyone concerned with laptop cool.
Good old HP. It might be staying in the PC industry and with good reason, but we have decided it's most definitely a Volvo. HP laptops have sharp lines, but a bland design. They are suitable for families but in reality, you'd rather have something more exciting.
Asus is the Mitsubishi of the laptop world. Both are not that expensive, and make you look quite cool. Mitsubishis are also for those who like to tinker with their cars. How much can you soup up an Asus? We'll have a go this afternoon and report back with our findings.

Have you ever wondered why your hot flashes and other menopausal symptoms seem to have been going on forever, even though the conventional wisdom says they should have disappeared after two years? Turns out the conventional wisdom is wrong, according to the first studies to follow a group of women for as long as their symptoms lasted. The researchers found that, on average, menopause-related annoyances persist over five years—and some women endure them for a decade or more. The good news is that you may have some control over the duration: "In our research, women who exercised four to six times a week had menopause symptoms for less time," says Nananda Col, MD, director of the Center for Outcomes Research and Evaluation, at Maine Medical Center Research Institute, in Portland.
Use the news
You'll need to work out four or more times a week to attain the symptom-reducing benefits found in this study. The researchers didn't look into exercise intensity, but as a general health guideline the American Heart Association recommends moving at a speed that allows you to talk but not sing.

Most visitors to Ubud have no idea that they ar in the regency or country of Gianyar nor that Bali province is divided into eight counties each with substantial autonomy from the government at the island capital of Denpasar.Yet for the visitor to cross the invisible border into Gianyar is to enter a distinctive world or architecture and tradition where the richness and antiquity of Balinese culture is celebrated every day.
The Director of Tourism in Gianyar,Agung Ary,was born in Ubud with links to the royal palace and his pride in the county of his birth is deep,infectious and inspiring.What he says is all the more remarkable for the matter of fact way in which he says it.''Gianyar has many tourists objects and destinastion.''he begins like the good bureaucrat he is but then amzes by reeling off an apparently endless list of attractions-"religion, ceremonies, culture, art, performances, festival, palaces, temples, museums, galleries,Taman Nusa Indonesia in miniature park,adventure tourism such as white water rafting,cycling,trekking,Bali Zoo Park,Bali Elephant Safari Park,Bali Bird Park."
'Then there are the daily lives of our people:their villages and their homes where visitors are always welcome to look and their work in the fields.Every village is different and has its own special days and ceremonies."Some village have become'art village' such as Celuk, Mas, Sukawati, Kemenuh, Payangan, Kedewaton, Sayan, Lod Tunduh, Nyuh Kuning, Pejeng, Bedulu,Tampaksiring and,of course,many artists live there". "What visitors derive from Gianyar depends on what they want but there s something for almost everybody."
The fame of the art and culture centre of Ubud develoved around painting a century ago and there are many serious artists living in the regency."Gianyar is the artistic soul of Bali .We make a festival of art out life. Even our priests are artists . Once you come here you feel the spiritual power and have a good feeling yourself."It's hard to doubt him whent he says softly that in his opinion"Gianyar should be the centre of tourist interest in Bali." Laughing he adds:"we even have a beach,at keramas,on the east coast,for surfing its one of the best beaches in the world with good waves where Oakley holds international championships."
To the people of Gianyar ,the areas around the Pakerisan and petanu Rivers are the places where Balinese civilization began.Here can be found the oldest subak irigated wet rice fields in Bali dating back a thousand years and recognized by UNESCO as a World heritage Landspace.The life-giving waters of the Gianyar river valley flow south from the great crater lake of Batur , a favourite destinations for tourists who may never have seen an active volcano as well as a favourite dawn adventure to climb Mount Batur and watch the sun rise out of the night dark to bathe world in golden light.The rivers Ayung and wos flow together in Ubud at Campuhan marking the spiritually charged spot discovered 1,200 yearsn ago by the Indian holy man Marharishi Markandya and marking the beginnings of Ubud.(BTN/Ist)
