Bruce Wayne: eccentric billionaire, one of the most well respected people in the city of Gotham and to many, the Batman. If Batman had an email address, you can bet that he'd take steps to ensure it, and his true identity, were protected, not only from his enemies but hated spammers and scammers as well. Do you take steps to protect your email?
Failing online protection from a superhero here's five things you can do to ensure your email address is properly protected.
Give your email a disguise
Superheros often protect their identity through the use of a disguise. We're not saying you need to dress up in spandex, go out and search for spammers/scammers to beat down, or prevent from getting your email. Instead, you should be aware of how scammers operate – largely by writing programs that search websites for email addresses – and disguise your email from this.
Many programs look for traditional emails like [email protected], so to disguise your email, spell it out: imthebatmanATgmailDOTcom or, imthebatman(DELETETHIS)@gmailDOTcom. People are smart enough to figure out that the AT and DOT are actually @, . or to delete (DELETETHIS). You'd be surprised at how much this will cut down on spam.
Protect your email's identity
Aside for a disguise, superheroes will often go to great lengths to protect their identity. You should do the same with your email address. When signing up for a new service, forum, or anything that requires a username, don't use your email as the username. If possible, don't use your email address at all.
You should also read the Privacy Statements of all websites you have accounts with. Yes, there is lots of legal speak and they are long, but thats to get the user to scroll to the bottom of the document and hit accept. Look for clauses regarding your email, and note any companies that say they reserve the rights to sell your email to advertisers or aren't held liable for stolen information, as you can ensure that your email will be spammed.
Beyond that, many websites allow you to hide your email address from other users. It's highly recommended that you do this and an option to do so can usually be found in the Account Options or Account Security sections of your user profile on websites.
Don't respond to flashy requests
When a superhero is not out fighting crime, they're off cultivating and maintaining their alter-ego. They hardly do anything outside of their normal character, and normally won't respond to flashy requests for super luxury balls (unless you're Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark of course). If you get an email that sounds too good to be true, such as announcing that you've won something spectacular, it's a good idea to not open or respond to it, as chances are near 100% that it's a scam or simply aimed at getting your email address or other information.
Get your email a side-kick
Some superheroes have sidekicks that help them fight crime or solve mysteries. We recommend that you get your main email a sidekick and sign up for a separate email that you use for online shopping, forum registration and basically anything that's non-work/family/friends related.
Take a picture of your email
In numerous Spider-Man story arcs, Peter Parker is tasked with taking pictures of Spider-Man. Of course, being Spider-man, all he has to do is take a picture of himself and people seem to be happy with that. As many spam programs don't take information from pictures, it's a good idea to make your email addresses into a picture that you place onto email signatures, or into the body of the email itself.
The easiest way to do this is open MS Paint, (if you have a windows machine), or an online image creator like pixlr and type your email address into the image, resize so it just fits the font and hit save. The best format to save it as is a .jpeg, as it can be easily read by Internet browsers and email programs. Most email programs will allow you to put an image into your signature, typically done under Settings.
You don't have to be a superhero to protect your email, just take these precautionary steps and your important email addresses will be as safe as any superhero's true identity. If you'd like to learn more about staying secure while surfing the Internet, please contact us, and we will come to your aid.

Force Structure:
Army and Marine Corps Efforts to Review Nonstandard Equipment for Future Usefulness
GAO-12-532R: Published: May 31, 2012. Publicly Released: May 31, 2012.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-3000
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
What GAO Found
In summary, the Army and the Marine Corps have taken steps to determine the future usefulness of nonstandard equipment but have not finalized all of the decisions on whether to add such equipment to unit authorization documents. As of November 2011, the Army had reviewed 409 equipment systems through its Capabilities Development for Rapid Transition process, determining that about 11 percent of that equipment is useful for the future and about 37 percent is not needed and should be terminated. The Army has not made a final decision on the future need for the remaining 52 percent of the equipment, which it continues to sustain for current operations primarily through the use of overseas contingency operations funds. The Army has also taken some additional actions to review nonstandard equipment through other forums and reviews which have led to recommendations for some items to be retained for the future. Since 2008, the Marine Corps has reviewed 144 different requests for capabilities to fill gaps identified by commanders. Of these, the Marine Corps has determined that about 63 percent will continue to be needed in the future to meet enduring requirements and should be incorporated into the Marine Corps force structure and about 17 percent will not be needed. An additional 21 percent are in initial development or are still being evaluated for future usefulness. In addition to service-provided equipment, some nonstandard equipment, such as Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles (MRAP), was fielded by DOD and managed as a joint program. According to the Army and the Marine Corps, both services are now transitioning the management of MRAPs from a joint office to service offices, and are in the process of determining how many MRAPs they want to retain for the future and add to their respective authorization documents.
Once decisions are made to retain nonstandard equipment for the future, multiple steps have to be taken before equipment can become standard and authorized for all like units, and delays in the Army process for reviewing and approving plans to add equipment to unit authorization documents may have hampered the authorization of some equipment items. As part of the process for adding equipment to unit authorization documents, the services develop detailed plans that describe how equipment will be made available across the force, including how it will be sustained and which existing equipment it will replace. Delays in the completion of some of the Armys plans, known as basis of issue plans, may affect when equipment can be authorized. While many factors can contribute to delays in the approval of these plans, such as changes to military strategy and the corresponding equipment requirements, Army documentation showed that delays in completing many of the plans were due to the originators failure to include essential data elements when plans were initially submitted for consideration. Army officials noted that current guidance is not as helpful as it might be in specifying which elements should be included in the plans to facilitate approval. Without comprehensive procedural guidance on developing basis of issue plans, initial plans may continue to be incomplete and rework may contribute to delays in issuance of documentation and new capabilities.
Why GAO Did This Study
This letter responds to the House Armed Services Committee report accompanying a bill for the Fiscal Year 2012 National Defense Authorization Act that directed us to examine the Army and Marine Corps tables of equipment and submit a report to the congressional defense committees. Over the course of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Army and the Marine Corps have quickly acquired and fielded new equipment to meet evolving threats. Largely supported with overseas contingency operations funds rather than through the Armys and the Marine Corps regular budgets, this nonstandard (rapidly fielded) equipment is not listed on units equipment authorization documents. However, with the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq, their planned drawdown from Afghanistan, and the likely reductions in overseas contingency operations funding, the military services face decisions about which rapidly fielded equipment should be retained for future use, funded through regular budget processes, and incorporated into unit equipment authorization documents.
We assessed (1) the status of Army and Marine Corps efforts to decide whether nonstandard equipment should be kept for the future and (2) the steps these services must take before adding nonstandard equipment to unit authorization documents and possible areas for improving the efficiency of these steps.
What GAO Recommends
To improve the efficiency of procedures for reviewing and approving equipment to be added to Army authorization documents, we are recommending that the Secretary of the Army supplement the Armys basis of issue plan guidance with additional instructions that specify the essential data elements that are required for basis of issue plans to be approved.
For more information, contact John H. Pendleton at (404) 679-1816 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: In October 2014, the Department of the Army released its revised Army Pamphlet 700-127, which addresses the data elements required for basis of issue plans. Specifically, section 9-3 of the revised pamphlet offers a list of elements to be included in the basis of issue plans pertaining to equipment items for which approval is sought, such as their fuel consumption and transportability requirements, power consumption and power generation data, and tactical capabilities.
Recommendation: To improve the efficiency of procedures for reviewing and approving equipment to be added to Army authorization documents, the Secretary of the Army should supplement the Army's basis of issue plan guidance with additional instructions that specify the essential data elements that are required for basis of issue plans to be approved.

text: Posted August 28, 2013 Nope, you're putting words in my mouth... I think some of what happened was deplorable... I also think you've got enough ammunition for your argument that you probably can do without quoting speeding tickets, or peeing outside... Stick to issues that people actually care about (not many are going to care about a kid getting a speeding ticket, or pissing in an alley), and it won't make it look like you're reaching for anything to pile on more rage for your anti-UNC arguments... Yup. Only an idiot would argue that there hasn't been some questionable behavior going on in CH, but what college kid didn't get a speeding ticket or take a drunken piss behind a bar? Out of all the stuff that's happened over the past few years at UNC, Hairston being busted driving with an ounce of pot, a gun, and 2 guys who I'm sure are stand up dudes was pretty deplorable. That shows an extreme lack of judgement and character. I'm still wondering how they didn't pin that gun on anybody. Still, nobody cares about that. The charges were dropped and everyone's got their panties in a wad about what manipulative leach rented a car for him. That really shows where our society is. I mean, Obama and the USA are about to bomb the crap out of a country we have no business getting involved with and 90% our country are more outraged about the little slut antics Hanna Montana did at some stupid award show! 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bilingual Mass Never Quite Jives For Me: A Note on Translation
Yesterday's Spanish debut was a direct response to posts, on Facebook and Twitter, covering the USCCB's conversation about new media with Catholic bloggers. (Here's a great recap by Leah Libresco, with links to other posts by Patheos bloggers who attended.)I wasn't able to attend, but I gathered that there was some data presented that indicated a disproportionate gap between English and Spanish language Catholic blogs relative to the demographics of the data. My reaction was straightforward: I … [Read more...]

The Time to Talk is Now
It is hard to have a conversation when politics are at stake. The news makes fools of us all. I find it nearly impossible to discuss important things in serious ways during election cycles. Besides my close friends, most people suspect that I'm secretly trying to pull a political maneuver. Mistrust abounds.For instance, I've been asked "Why don't you have anything to say about abortion?" several times. I have my reasons. The main reason is that I will not let the sloganeering lexicon rule the … [Read more...]
What's Left of the Left? Did the Grand Old Party Get Old?
The election has passed. Obama won the big one and the list goes on and on from there. Casualties in every direction. 2014 and 16 loom thick and heavy already, as depressing as that seems. What did we learn? I hope someone learned something. Especially the so-called "Left" and the GOP. Now remember: I'm a Catholic mercenary, unbeholden to either party. I have no dogs in this nation-state fight. At least not right in the middle of it. Just howlin' on the fringes, the margin. A Conservative … [Read more...]
Thanking the Candidates, All of Them
Those who read and know me understand that my politics tend toward the cynical. Especially during election season. At Mass today, my wonderful pastor broke through to me in the way that good priests do from time to time. He changed my attitude a little.His voice and demeanor carried a heavy, languished sense of relief. Confusion, too. He's told me about how elections wear on him because he finds the candidates and their parties to be such imperfect options for Catholics. He doesn't understand … [Read more...]
Abstention is Still a Choice: The Power of Negative Voting
Atheists go nuts when they stand accused of believing in something, despite their unbelief in the existence of God. Theists usually make this accusation in a simplistic, easy, and clumsy way, deserving all the distain that atheists have for it and more.But there is another way into this argument that ought to disturb atheists and theists alike: negative theology. The dark, apophatic path to God.Hold that thought.Alongside this thread, there is another conversation going on. Have you heard? … [Read more...]
Suffrage as Nihilism: Voting is Dead
I've seen and heard an election dogma that can only be described as pure, unadulterated nihilism. A complete void of being. It goes as follows: "it doesn't matter who you vote for, the only important thing is that you vote." Another version plays with words a bit: "the only wrong choice is not to vote."How clever!The implication is clear: who or what gets elected isn't important; the only thing that has importance is that someone, anyone, gets elected. It may not even matter that anyone or … [Read more...]

Impact of Car Accidents Can Be Long-Lasting
Aug. 20, 2001 -- Approximately every 10 seconds someone in the U.S. is injured in a motor vehicle accident, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Fortunately, most accidents are not fatal, but even minor ones can cause long-term anxiety as well as fears and phobias about driving or riding in a car.
The latest study by British researchers suggests that at least one-third of all people involved in nonfatal accidents have posttraumatic stress disorder, persistent anxiety, depression, and phobias one year after the incident.
The study suggests there may be "rather large psychological complications even when the motor vehicle accidents have medically not been in the least bit serious," says study author Richard Mayou, FRCPsych, professor of psychiatry at the University of Oxford's department of psychiatry at Warneford Hospital in Oxford, England.
"In the past there has been an assumption that people who have more severe injuries are more likely to get psychiatric complications, but that is not so," he tells WebMD. His study appears in the August issue of the American Journal of Psychiatry.
Most of the more than 1,000 men and women in the study who had been taken to a hospital after an accident recovered from the psychological impact within three to 12 months. Others had persistent problems or suddenly developed anxiety and other symptoms months after the accident. Interestingly, most people with persistent anxiety were passengers in the accident rather than drivers.
Mayou says anxiety about traveling may mean feeling anxious when driving or riding in cars or avoiding cars altogether. You also may feel nervous or anxious when passing the site of the accident, seeing similar road conditions or traveling in the vehicle involved in the accident or a similar type or color of car.
The most important factor in recovering from the trauma of the accident is recognizing that you are having a problem and getting help, Mayou says.
Like other types of trauma, car accidents can cause long-term stress that affects your work and relationships and can eventually lead to depression, anxiety, and sleep problems, says Alan Steinberg, PhD.

A clean-as-you-go policy is required by all guests.
Please treat the apartment as you would your own home.
|Check-in before
Nice clean & comfortable room. Great host.
It was a nice apartment in East London, although it was in a rather rough neighborhood and not really in Shoreditch as the title suggests. (After our last night, we found a notice by the police saying that there had been a lot of burglaries in the area and that we should look out for anything suspicious.)
The apartment itself was clean and great for 3 people to live in. It was especially nice for cooking your own meals, as food and hotel prices in London are not that cheap. The WiFi connection was also great.
The city can be reached by tube in 20-30 minutes. If you plan on staying out longer at night, Taxis from Central London can cost up to 35 pounds, so better look for night busses. Another thing was that it is located in an area where it is rather hard to get to the airports.
Clean and comfortable room. Good transport links.
A quiet room.No T,V. unfortunately.shared toilet and shared shower good hot water.Saw the manageress for 2 minutes. close to tube/buses etc no real issues with the place you get what you pay for...Wetherspoons 5 minutes away, lots of takeaways very close. A good visit in all..
Room was clean and instructions for getting to the location and getting the keys were good. There weren't any troubles with the other guests staying in the apartment, they were respectful and kept the shared areas clean. The sink faucets in the bathroom were loose, but they still worked.
Really central - Great accommodation
Hello, we just been a few days in London, For start the good things = Good location, good instructions from the owner, Medium things = Clean so so, bins not being empty every day. Bad things we stay in room 4, next door from the shower, and was annoying to listen noises and being fully booked the use of the bathroom was constant. Front door handle is naked.
It is a shame as the apartment is decent size and very good located and average as per London standards, I would not repeat in this place due to the comments I told, maybe another room with no bathroom next door .........
Lovely accomodation, really nice big bedrroom, everything clean and well provided for. Well recommended, would stay here again. Only thing is was locating the property due to the fact that external renovations in the area have covered everything in scaffolding. Best thing is to concentrate on the photo and look for the red wooden fence on the right.
Room was clean and as described, situated in a great location. Very good value for the price, i would stay again.
It was not too bad although we were very allergic to dustmites.

Olympic Games: Spartan Athletics HD
By SpartanApps
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Wouldn't you love a game where your actions control the movements of your character? Well that is exactly what we have done with Spartan Athletics.
Just like our users, we wanted a sporting game that isn't just button smashing. We wanted to produce a game where the natural motion of swiping and flicking are directly related to how fast and how powerful the characters actions are.
And that is exactly what Spartan Athletics is. The natural gestures and the amazing iPhone screen make this game a sensation. We are not the only ones who think so... Have a look at what FreshApps had to say...
"... It's fun and refreshing to be directly physically responsible for what your avatar is performing on the screen... the game is fantastic!"
- Review by Freshapp http://www.freshapps.com/iphone-app-review-spartan-athletics/
If you are like us the you're tired of playing games that are too easy to master. Cheap games shouldn't mean cheap gameplay.
Swiping like a madman to make your character run faster is boring and not at all realistic! Running is as much about technique as it is about speed of movement.
Start with slow motions and get a feel for how the characters react to your swipes. Once you get the hang of it you will be hooked and chasing those records just like a true Spartan athlete.
Throwing and jumping are all about timing. Get that right and you will improve greatly!
Take your time and get familiar with the controls and you will be swiping and flicking you way to glory!

Not good
If your looking for a good Olympic games app DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP it has lag the multiplayer doesn't work and the controls are bad but if they fixed the controls and the lag it would be alright please do this and I will rate you 5 stars plus comment.

Hi all,
I have a small problem with SPAM and users registering on my site.
I think I know where the problem is but I do not have enough knowledge to solve it and was wondering if anyone could help me out.
I have installed Mike's SI CAPTCHA which has always worked a treat on my other sites (which reminds me, I must make a donation!), but on a particular theme that I have now, it uses it's own login and registration page and I think that they are getting in here as the CAPTCH does not show on this page.
My problem is, how do I call the CAPTCHA plugin from this other /registration page?
As the CAPTCHA does not show, then I assume it will not be working, but I do not know how to 'call' it to work on the different login/registration page. The themes own login page deals with login and registering (same page).
Could anyone help me out with this?
Can it be done?
Many thanks in advance.

I am working on a browser plugin for Firefox, Safari, Chrome that will intercept data on the page, run it against a regex and then if it matches - reformat it. I have this working on page load using:
var meth = {
replaceInElement : function(element, find, replace) {
// iterate over child nodes and replace
run : function(evt){
// doc is the document that triggered "run" event
if (!(evt.target.nodeName === "#document")) { return; }
var doc = evt.target; // document that triggered "onload" event
if (!(doc instanceof HTMLDocument)) { return; }
if (!doc.location) { return; }
// perform substitutions on the loaded document
var find = /regex/gi
meth.replaceInElement(doc.body, find, function(match) {
var new_content;
//do stuff
return new_content;
//content.document.addEventListener('DOMNodeInserted', ezcall.node_inserted, false);
window.addEventListener("load", meth.run, false);
This is working for static pages, but for anything using ajax calls, it fails. I cannot find the right listener or figure out how to intercept the XMLHttpRequest.
I have tried similar event listeners for XMLHttpRequest with no luck.
XMLHttpRequest.addEventListener('load', meth.run, false);
I would like to either intercept the request and modify the content. Or find the target that was updated and scan it after the ajax call is finished.
I will accept an answer that says it cannot be done, but I will need some supporting data as to why it cannot be done.

Gallery | 24 Mind-Blowing Movie & TV Plot Twists
- '24' (2001 – 2010)
Like "Lost," "24" depended on a cliffhanging twist every single week, as levels of conspiracy ran deeper and deeper and trusted characters turned out to be double agents. Even series finales had such twists, as viewers discovered at the end of the very first season. After 24 straight hours of counter-terrorism action, Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) finally seems to have thwarted the bad guys, only to discover that his lover-turned-traitor Nina (Sarah Clarke) has murdered his wife. Thus did viewers learn that there's no safety for anyone in Jack's world, and that he would always be snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
- 'Boardwalk Empire' (2010 – 2014)
Throughout the first two seasons of this ensemble drama about prohibition-era Atlantic City, there were two essential, standout characters: city boss Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi) and his protégé-turned-rival, Jimmy Darmody (Michael Pitt). By the end of the Season 2 finale, Jimmy seemed to have patched up his differences with Nucky. But Nucky refused to forgive him and shot Jimmy dead. It was a shocker, first because we'd never seen Nucky kill someone himself instead of delegating the hit (but then, as Jimmy told him in the pilot episode, "You can't be half a gangster"). Second, it didn't seem like the show could survive the death of such a central character. Some would argue that it hasn't, though the show is about to start its fifth and final season.
- 'Citizen Kane' (1941)
When you think about it, the "Rosebud" twist makes no sense; after all, not even Kane's (Orson Welles) nurse is close enough to hear the dying man's cryptic last word. Still, it's clever of the film to reveal only in its final moments that "Rosebud" is the name of his childhood sled, a memory of the last time he was truly happy, before money corrupted everything. Of course, even once you know, the reveal doesn't really solve the mystery of how Kane became the man he was. Maybe that's why this remains the most famous plot twist in film history; knowing the surprise doesn't prevent you at all from enjoying the film as it traces Kane's evolution from idealistic firebrand to reclusive tyrant.
- 'Chinatown' (1974)
In Roman Polanski's classic neo-noir, the case that private-eye Jake Gittes (Jack Nicholson) is investigating starts out as a simple adultery case, but it soon evolves into a massive cover-up of political corruption, land theft, and murder. And then, Jake's client/lover Evelyn Mulwray (Faye Dunaway) reveals the big shocker that adds a huge, new dimension of evil to the story: that her "sister" is also her daughter, the product of incest with her father, Noah Cross (John Huston). It becomes clear to the viewer, maybe even before Jake knows it, that he is no more capable of escaping his past than Evelyn is, and that some evil is so vast and overwhelming that there's simply no reckoning with it.
- 'The Crying Game' (1992)
Maybe if we'd paid closer attention, we'd have spotted the clues — like Jaye Davidson's Adam's apple — but then Stephen Rea's fugitive IRA operative didn't spot them either. It's not until he and his new love are getting hot and heavy for the first time, late in the film, that Davidson doffs drag and reveals his manhood. Writer/director Neil Jordan's films often center on impossible relationships, but this one manages to remain swoony, dangerous, and romantic even after the startling reveal.
- 'Dallas' (1978 – 1991)
The classic nighttime soap had one of the worst plot twists ever — the reappearance of Bobby Ewing (Parick Duffy) in the shower, indicating that the entire previous season (during which Duffy had left the show) had been a dream. That seemed likea cop-out at best, a cheat at worst. But the CBS drama also had one of the all-time best twists with the season 3 finale, in which J.R. Ewing (Larry Hagman) was shot by one of his many enemies. Back in the days when CBS was one of just four channels, the entire nation — and much of the rest of planet Earth — spent the summer of 1980 pondering the question of "Who Shot J.R.?" (Also, would he live or die? It wasn't clear, since Hagman used the break to renegotiate his salary.) Months later, when the shooter was finally revealed — it was J.R.'s sister-in-law, Kristin (Mary Crosby)! — the episode was one of the most-watched events in TV history.
- 'Fight Club' (1999)
You'd have to be at least a little crazy to buy into Tyler Durden's (Brad Pitt) program of reclaiming one's masculinity through bare-knuckle brawling and anti-consumerist vandalism. More than a little, actually, since Tyler turns out to be an alternate personality of the nameless narrator (Edward Norton). The revelation itself is more than a little crazy — how would a guy beating himself up have attracted such a following? — although director David Fincher plants some Easter eggs throughout that hint that Tyler is not real, that he's some trickster spirit whose anarchist heart is in the right place, even if his frontal lobes are not.
- 'Game of Thrones' (2011 – Now)
Sure, if you've read George R.R. Martin's books, the plot twists aren't really a surprise. Maybe you didn't blink when, just eight episodes into the series, the show killed off seeming protagonist Ned Stark. (In retrospect, the fact that Ned was played by Sean Bean, king of the death scene, should have been a tip-off.) Maybe you didn't flinch at any of the shocking deaths of season 4, from Joffrey to Tywin. But even readers blanched at season 3's "Red Wedding," at which conventions of hospitality (and genre) were tossed aside so that guests Robb and Catelyn Stark could follow Ned's example and die violently. The TV version was even more brutal than the print version, since it also depicted the slaughter of Robb's pregnant bride and her fetus. Now, that's brutal.
- 'The Good Wife' (2009 – Now)
The most recent season of the legal drama was full of twists, including the splitting of the law firm into two rival firms, which essentially rebooted the show. But a bigger shocker lay ahead, with the unexpected death of Will Gardner (Josh Charles). For one thing, Will seemed an essential part of the show, both as a founding partner of Gardner Lockhart but also as part of the show's central romantic triangle. Trade news readers might have known that Charles wanted to leave the show, but they wouldn't have expected that he'd exit by being shot do death in a courtroom by a desperate defendant who grabbed a bailiff's gun. His death sent the rest of the characters reeling, especially his erstwhile lover Alicia (Julianna Margulies). If viewers hadn't realized it before, they knew it now: all bets were off.
- 'House of Cards' (2013 – Now)
In a show made to be binge-watched, the plot twists come fast and furious in the Netflix political drama. Season 2 has scarcely begun when one major character kills another by pushing her in front of a train. But the moment in Season 2 that really made jaws drop and eyebrows vault was the sequence when Agent Meechum (Nathan Darrow), the Secret Service bodyguard to Frank (Kevin Spacey) and Claire (Robin Wright) gets into a threesome with the Washington power couple at their home. Did we know that Frank played for both teams? He did hint at a gay sexual experience in college in a throwaway moment in Season 1. The sequence did seem to grow organically out of past events while forcing viewers to reevaluate what they knew about the Machiavellian couple. At least, now we know why Frank so carefully groomed Meechum for this position.
- 'Lost' (2004 – 2010)
The bread-and-butter of "Lost" was a plot-twist cliffhanger every week, so it's hard to pick just one great one. There was the third-season finale, "Through the Looking Glass," which upended the series' typical flashback story structure and revealed that we were now looking into the future, when at least some of the castaways have returned to civilization, only to try to return to the island to rescue the rest. There was the fourth season finale, where we learned that the island could disappear and travel through time. But let's go with the early Season 1 episode "Walkabout," where we learned that, before the plane crash, John Locke (Terry O'Quinn) had been a paraplegic, and that the island had mysteriously restored his ability to walk. This let us know that the show was entering a metaphysical realm, where the usual laws of science didn't apply. It also let us know that the show wouldn't just boggle our minds but also move us to tears.
Even though the series took place in a military hospital near the front lines of the Korean War, death largely spared the primary cast and stuck to claiming the guest stars who played severely wounded patients. Or so it went until the end of the third season, when McLean Stevenson chose to leave the show. His character, beloved camp commander Henry Blake, was discharged and sent home, only to die (off-screen) when the troop transport plane taking him home crashed. It was the most shocking, somber moment of the show's 11 seasons, and one of the few reminders that, in wartime, no one is truly safe.
- 'Newhart' (1982 – 1990)
There may be only one time the "It was all a dream" twist has really worked, and that was when it was spoofed in the series finale of "Newhart." The episode began with a mass exodus from the New England hamlet where Dick (Bob Newhart) ran his inn — the departing villagers even sang the mournful "Anatevka" from "Fiddler on the Roof" as they left — and ended with the star waking up next to Emily (Suzanne Pleshette), his wife on the classic "Bob Newhart Show" of the 1970s. In other words, the whole absurd "Newhart" series had been a dream of shrink Bob Hartley, the actor's "Bob Newhart Show" character. Well played, Bob, well played.
- 'No Way Out' (1987)
This spy thriller sees Pentagon naval office Kevin Costner forced to bring down the Secretary of Defense (Gene Hackman) lest he himself be made the fall guy in a murder investigation. It's an effective, suspenseful, by-the-books thriller until the last two minutes, when we learn that Costner really is a Soviet sleeper agent, one at risk not only of being falsely fingered as the killer, but of being correctly revealed as a mole. Arguably, the movie would work just as well without this revelation, which casts the whole rest of the movie in doubt. But maybe that's a good thing.
- 'Oldboy' (2004)
Revenge is a dish best served cold, and in Korean director Park Chan-wook's bleak modern classic, the dish gets 15 years to chill. That's how long Dae-su (Choi Min-sik) is imprisoned by an unknown captor. Suddenly released back into the world, he swears vengeance on his kidnapper and sets out to find the man's identity and the reason for his long confinement. Along the way, he has an affair with an 18-year-old woman, Mi-do (Kang Hye-jeong). Ultimately, he learns the truth: that his captor was an old schoolmate who blamed Dae-su for exposing his incestuous relationship with his sister, leading to her suicide. The long captivity was necessary so that Dae-su's three-year-old daughter could grow to adulthood and commit unwitting incest with her father, for she is none other than Mi-do. Dae-su's discovery leads to more Oedipal bloodletting and the realization for both men that vengeance does not bring closure, only more horror.
- 'Planet of the Apes' (1968)
If you've seen any of the "Apes" movies that followed this 1968 franchise launcher, you already know the big surprise reveal at the ending. Even so, there's a lot to appreciate and enjoy in this initial entry — most of it having to do with Charlton Heston's scenery-chewing performance. Still, it's hard to top that final moment, when he sees the half-buried Statue of Liberty and realizes that the ape world is, in fact, Earth, and that his own species all but destroyed itself. "Damn you all to hell!" is actually a pretty sensible reaction to all that.
- 'Primal Fear' (1996)
Sometimes a plot twist relies on smart casting to put it across. That's the case here, where Edward Norton plays a stammering, shy murder suspect named Aaron who has a vicious alternate personality named Roy. Unscrupulous lawyer Richard Gere easily exploits Roy's sudden rages to win Aaron an insanity defense. Only then does his client reveal to him that Roy is his true self, and that Aaron was just a calculated invention. The ploy worked — on the viewer, at least — because it was Norton's first major film role, and viewers had no idea what to expect from him. Then again, now that we know what an elusive chameleon Norton is as an actor, it still works.
- 'The Prisoner' (1967 – 1968)
The brain-twisting British sci-fi/spy drama ended with the biggest brain-twister of all. After 17 episodes of Kafkaesque frustration, former spy Number 6 (Patrick McGoohan) finally penetrates to the heart of the mystery village where he's been incarcerated and gets to confront the leader, Number 1. When they meet, Number 1 is wearing a gorilla mask, but it comes off to reveal the face of… Number 6 himself! What did it all mean? Fans have spent nearly 50 years trying to decode the symbolism and explain the conundrum.
- 'Psycho' (1960)
Hitchcock's masterpiece is a turning point in Hollywood history, thanks to both of its horrifying twists. There's the awful, final revelation that the murderous "Mother" no longer exists, except as a mummy in the cellar and as a projection of Norman Bates's (Anthony Perkins) own tortured psyche. But before that, viewers were thoroughly unsettled by the murder early in the film of its ostensible protagonist, Marion Crane, played by the film's top-billed star, Janet Leigh. Out the window went all audience expectations, based on half a century of accumulated knowledge of genre conventions and the star system. If Leigh could be killed off, who knows what might happen next. The dread itself was as terrifying as Leigh's shower stabbing — and has haunted viewers and storytellers alike ever since.
- 'Saw' (2004)
The whole killer-disguised-as-one-of-his-own-victims thing goes back at least as far as Agatha Christie. Still, this first installment in the long-running horror franchise executes it particularly well. It's only at the end of the film, after game-playing killer Jigsaw has forced his captives into acts of extreme self-mutilation, that a bloody corpse that's been in the room since the beginning of the film suddenly comes alive and reveals himself to be Jigsaw (Tobin Bell). Pretty good trick.
- 'The Sixth Sense' (1999)
A second viewing of the movie about the caring shrink (Bruce Willis) and the haunted kid who sees dead people (Haley Joel Osment) reveals a number of clues that Willis's character has, in fact, been a ghost himself the whole time. But on first viewing, the final revelation transforms the movie; what had been a scary enough horror tale turns into a poignant spiritual parable about letting go of one's past. The twist made M. Night Shyamalan into a brand-name director; unfortunately, viewers came to expect plot twists in his movies, and the ones he offered up in later films weren't that surprising or even well-executed. This one, however, still holds up as the textbook example of a plot twist done right.
- 'Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back' (1980)
If you watch the "Star Wars" movies in the order of their release, rather than the order of the episode numbers, then "Empire" contains a shocker that may be the single greatest plot twist in film history. After all, most of us who'd seen only "A New Hope" were as horrified as Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) was to learn that his mentor Obi-Wan Kenobi had deceived him, and that his father hadn't died at Darth Vader's hands but was, in fact very much alive because he was Darth Vader. That Oedipal stunner forces Luke to rethink his notions of good and evil and forces viewers to rethink all that they've learned over the course of the original trilogy.
- 'The Twilight Zone' (1959 – 1964)
The stories in the classic sci-fi/fantasy anthology series almost always ended with a twist, so there are many to choose from. Think of "To Serve Mankind," where the book of that title, the handbook of seemingly benevolent alien visitors, turns out to be a cookbook. Or "Eye of the Beholder," where a botched plastic surgery leaves a woman looking beautiful (to our eyes), on a world where everyone else has a gnarled snout. But the most memorable may be "Time Enough at Last," where a hermit-like bookworm (Burgess Meredith) is the lone survivor of a nuclear holocaust and now has time to read all he likes — only to break his glasses. There's a twist that's not just surprising, but karmically cruel.
- 'The Usual Suspects' (1995)
The final reveal makes the whole crime drama that precedes it look like an elaborate con job. Which it is. Turns out that the whole yarn spun by limping, small-time crook Roger "Verbal" Kint (Kevin Spacey) was improvised on the spot. Watch it again and wonder if anything Kint says about unseen criminal mastermind Keyser Soze is true. Even the surprise fax at the end, which seems to identify Soze as Kint himself, seems dubious. All we know for sure is that Kint was telling a tall tale, and that, by the time anyone figures it out, he's shaken off his fake limp and strolled off into anonymity and freedom.

Protecting your hard-earned money
Talking Points 3/26
Hawkeye: Trust, Integrity, Transparency, Patriotism and responsibility is much more important to avoid corrupt politicians! Case in Point: In 2008 Obama had Hillary sign a memorandum promising complete transparency to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee because she was Secretary of State and they were concerned with their Foundation donors. 1000 donations from donors have been hidden and nothing was ever done about it. The US law prohibits aid to foreign countries known to be corrupt unless a waiver is signed by the Secretary of State. She signed a waiver and 1 week later Bill Clinton received 1.2 million dollars for 2 speeches. In 2010 the Swedish telecommunications giant, Erricson, was accused of violating US sanctions with Iran. 1 week later Hillary unveiled her new sanctions list against Iran, and telecommunications was now not part of the sanctions. After this Erricson then paid Bill Clinton $750,000 for one speech. Their's is a lifetime of corruption and scandal, dirty back door deals. God only knows what this hag will do when President. The movie "Clinton Cash" has already been seen by Millions all over the world and this week, the Erricson CEO was forced to resign! The whole world is in the process of cleaning up the cesspool like this in their governments!

Catification: Jane's DIY Cat Run
Jane and her husband saved a lot of money building this outdoor cat enclosure at their home in Virginia by using plans available from Just4Cats.com. This kind of enclosure lets cats enjoy the outdoors without being exposed to threats. You don't always have to spend a lot of money to create something that will really benefit your cats!
Here's what Jane has to say about their project:
"My wonderful husband built our cat run with the help of Just4Cats.com. I came across their site after looking at expensive (unaffordable) ready-made runs on the web. I bought a copy of their book, which provided great instructions (even though my husband said he didn't need them!) All the materials were available at our local home improvement store and it cost about a quarter of the pre-made enclosure I had been looking at.
Unfortunately, the only suitable access point is via a window in the house, but my husband created an enclosed ramp and our local glass company cut a hole in the window to fit the cat door and it works perfectly! We currently have six rescued cats and all but one love going out (she's rather timid about the outdoors but likes to sit with her head sticking out of the cat flap!)
We've put a cat house and shelves in the run, and pots of catnip, but there's still some "interior design" I'd like to do. We also have bird and squirrel feeders and a bird bath at the back of the run for their viewing pleasure! The honeysuckle & passion flower are running a little wild at the moment but provide much-needed shade in the summer."
You can purchase the Just4Cats Do-it-yourself manual of outdoor enclosures at Just4Cats.com for $25 plus shipping. The manual includes 65+ detailed drawings with instructions for building your own outdoor cat enclosure. Thanks to Jane and her husband for sharing their photos!
Notes from Jackson:
Jane and her husband really built a wonderful world for their cats here. I'm sure if there were any territorial difficulties between the cats, that they were diffused by simply adding more territory. This is beautiful, functional and vital for the cats' happiness. Great job!

This looks exactly like one my husband and father built for me several years ago at our last house. Cats loved it. The only problem we ran into was we used the kind of fencing you did but ended up having to cover the whole thing with bird netting. Birds kept getting in through the large holes and when a cat would go after them they would try to fly out and couldn't. Thus getting caught by the cats. And many times the cats would bring the birds back into the house – dead or alive. And not to mention the time a squirrel got in and in an attempt to escape the cats, it ran right up the ramp, through the cat door and into the kitchen! What a mess until I was able to get him out of the house!
This is what I need for my Bengal. But I'm wondering about close exposure to other cats from the neighborhood. In my case, there is a stray cat house two doors down, a major reason I don't let my cats go outside. I don't want them catching diseases.
HI Catherine – I have thought about what you say and as I consider creating a safe cat run for my indoor girls, I wonder about adding another barrier, such as simple, black deer fencing a couple of feet beyond the border of the existing cat run, as a buffer to keep other animals at a safer distance? A veterinarian may provide some thoughts on this as well.
That cat enclosure is awesome! Wish I was able to do something like that. I am, however, waiting for a contractor friend to come over to check out the yard/fence so I can buy one of the more-expensive ones from a company.
And Renee-I have to laugh at your entry. I'm sure it wasn't funny for you at the time. I can just imagine a squirrel getting into the house. How the heck did you get it out?
LOL!! It was interesting to say the least, especially since all my cats (3 at the time) were all trying to help me "catch" it. The back door to the house is just a couple of feet from the cat door, so I opened it wide up and just tried to herd cats while the squirrel found its way out, which it did pretty quickly, but not before totally tearing up the blinds on all the kitchen windows! 🙂
If you have your cat vaccinated then you don't have to worry about most diseases. But just like humans they can get cat colds and whatnot. At our last place I had a 6x6x16 cat enclosure, and there were strays cats around that visited. My cats never got sick, but they sure went nuts and wanted out of the enclosure all the time. At our new place it is fenced in almost 90% 2 more weeks it'll be entirely fenced in with a tall privacy fence.Half of the fencing now is chain linked I leave a window open so they can come and go. I also spend a lot of time out doors with them. They have access T to outside for about 4am to 9pm. Trust me when I say the cats are happier then and healthier then ever. They have room tor run and jump, climb trees and catch birds. Viewing pleasure aside in my opinion that is torture to cats, their instincts are to chase and they get frustrated when they run up against a barrier. The only time my Maine coon got out is because he could see outside the chain link and saw a squirrel down on the ground. With a privacy fence they won't be able to see outside their huge back yard. Temptation is limited to what is in the yard, and since we have 4 fruit trees that are plenty enough temptation that comes in the yard. Cats,kids and even our adult selves, you can't protect from everything.. I had to chose between locking my 3 cats inside a tiny mother in law unit or letting them be the felines they are. Inside they have high places to nap and a big cat tree, so I more then met my cats halfway!
I too was worried about diseases. When I built the cats" outdoor playground, I put attached the wire fencing on the inside of the wood posts. since the posts were about 4″ wide, I attached bird netting to the outside of the posts thereby creating a 4″ buffer zone between my cats and creatures outside. No more nose touching possibilities. I feel much better letting the mother/kittens I foster outside now.:-)
We are trying to figure out an appropriate spot for a catio, but so far, not so good. The one thing we aren't worrying about is Herbie's exposure to other cats. We have two dogs (a lab and a pug) who are Herbie's good buddies. Head butts, rubs, purrs, etc. They have free roam of our 1/3 acre and the two neighbor cats know it. They sit on the fences and stare at Herbie as he stares back. But they never attempt to get in the yard, even when the bird feeders and bird bath are in full use. What they don't know is that the Lab would lick them until they were soaked and the pug just want's to sniff their behinds. LOL
The justforcats.com website isn't working. Anywhere else I can find the things I need to build something like this??
It's just4cats.com I just was on it.
If anyone is interested in using either an area of their yard or the entire yard as a cat run, check out http://www.purr-fectfence.com. We bought the needed parts to do our entire back yard and it is wonderful and aesthetically pleasing as it disappears against the cedar fence it is installed on.
I love this idea for an enclosure. I am wondering though if this would be better than an electrical cat fence. I am debating on which to install, any suggestions?
Go with the Purrfect fence. I have nearly half an acre fenced with it for several years and it is wonderful. The cats love it. An electric fence will not keep other animals out and it is useless if your cat's collar comes off. One tip, where it attaches to the house, be careful that the rain downspouts are not inside/nearby as these can be used to climb out. If there are trees near the fence, just wrap them in brown metal flashing to stop climbing.
My cats have always been outdoor cats, without boundaries. But I understand your concern about hat can happen to the cat.
My experience is that cats are more self-confident and proud when they develope 'street smartness' or wandering in the the woods close to home.
I understand that cats in big asphalt jungles needs to be held indoors or enjoy their 'catios', but to be honest I dont understand why people want their pets live a life without freedom.
In my opinion cats should be free and have a good home. Cats are by nature independent animals – and I'm honored that my cat wants to live with me, That she comes home to get food, sleep and cuddeling. But I would't let her stay indoors.
In the winter she's out for half an hour a day. She feels the cold, and learns how to find shelter — and then we know where to find her and take her home.
Greetings from Britt, Norway.
Unfortunately some of us live in cities that actually have ridiculous laws about roaming cats. Here most people don't mind them, but one complaint to the city and the owners can be fined. So a good catio is better than nothing. I totally agree that cats have much better mental health when they aren't confined. I've never known a "problem" cat that wasn't an indoor only cat.
Depends upon what side of the fence you are sitting on. I am sure the indigenous life feels differently about which cat is the "problem".
In some parts of the world domesticated cats are invasive species that can have devastating effects on the ecosystem. Properly constructed enclosures can allow pets with predatory instincts to enjoy the outdoors without presenting a threat to wildlife.
Hi Jane!
Can you please tell me the total costs for this beautiful cat enclosure. I want to build one just like that but I am worried i will end up spending too much money. A rouch estimate of the cost for wood and other supplies would really help. Thanks!
We built our cat run for our 6 cats 5 years ago. They LOVE it. I like that I don't have to worry about finding them in the street.
My husband built a out doors enclosure with many levels. We have trees next to it and a wonderful bush. We have a door also to be able to get in in case we need to get in, with a lock. My cats love, love it. We have had a few birds come in, boy was that fun:( We are in the process of putting beams on the ceiling so they can walk to each room and never touch the floor, and what my husband has done to their room is short of amazing. They all have sleeping boxes and hiding places. I know many may think this is to much,But we feel if you own a pet you should do everything you can to give them the best life possible and we do, and maybe some more.By the way our cats are rescues and let us know each day the love they have for us.
I absolutely love the Jackson's enclosure but I rent a duplex with a large back yard. Does anyone have an option using a movable enclosure similar to this. My cats are very important to me. I'd like to build something that can be moved to another location in the future. I have 4 indoor rescues and 4 out side rescues. I worry about the outside kitties as I have a very busy street with a small front yard; I keep my angels on call all of the time. I like to play with my Kitties and would love to stand and sit inside their enclosure as well.
We made panels using 2 2×2's for each panel, then we stapled chicken wires on one side of the panel, and a green wire mesh on the other side of the panel, the panels are put together forming a wall using heavy gauge wire instead of nails, we stood up the panels by planting the bottom of the panels a few inches into the dirt, and they are anchored by cement blocks on both sides, the ceiling of the enclosure is built the same way as the walls. We decided to use panels so that it is modular enough if we decide to make it bigger or smaller later on, we simply add or reduce the panels, the heavy gauge wires make dismantling the enclosure easily in case we need to pack up and move, the chicken wire and the green wire mesh is to discourage the kitties from trying to escape from the enclosure, and to keep a couple of inches of distance between my kitties and the strays roaming in my yard, the cement blocks prevent the kitties from digging out from underneath the enclosure, on 1 panel we put on door hinges to connect to the next panel, and we have a door to go in and out of the enclosure, it is extra work to build an enclosure this way, but it is versatile, we painted it once and it has been almost 10 years, at one point we had 10 rescued kitties in the enclosure, it still works well and looks great!
I would love to see a picture of your enclosure! This sounds like something I want to make, but with a partially covered area. Feel free to email it and thank you for sharing!
Used 2×2 and at what length? (2x2x8?). Also I'd love to see a picture of your panel as well as the enclosure! Thanks
I have a 5 year old male cat who loves to bite. I find scabs on my three other cats and he loves to nip me whenever he gets the chance. How can I get him to understand that his behavior is not acceptable?
We regret that Jackson does not answer questions posted in the comments. This is due to his demanding schedule and the high volume of requests he receives. But most importantly, since he has not met your cat, it would be contrary to his approach for him to give specific personalized advice for your specific situation. That being said, general questions and issues are addressed throughout this blog, in his book Cat Daddy and of course, the show My Cat From Hell.

Dont' get a prompt or anything on the blackberry so it just hangs. Really wish I could browse more easily from emails, including loggin in from them. I have been on other sites that do that.

Electric Bikes Buyers Guide
An electric bike is a great option for getting around as well as having some fun! Check out our guide to find out why.
Electric Bikes Buyers Guide
Electric bikes are great fun, and really useful too! Whether you're looking to get outside more but you don't like the hills, or just want a practical way of getting to work and the shops without getting sweaty, an electric bike (also known as an e-bike) can be the perfect choice.
What is an e-bike?
An electric bike is like a normal bike, with the addition of an electric motor and battery. You still have to pedal, but the electric motor can kick in to give you some help. Most e-bikes have different settings, so you can decide how much of a boost you're getting!
The law on electric bikes
There are few regulations with electric bikes that you probably should know about:
- You can use an e-bike anywhere that you're able to ride a regular bike, and you only need the same safety equipment you'd wear on a normal bike, too.
- An electric bike shouldn't weigh more than 40kg. Get yours from Halfords and that won't be a problem - most of ours weigh around 20kg.
- The maximum power output of the motor can't be more than 200 watts.
- You've got to be at least 14 years old if you want to ride one on a public road.
How fast can they go?
E-bikes can power you along at up to 15.5 miles per hour. Of course, you can go faster than that, but you'll need to put in the legwork if you want to! They make a huge difference when it comes to accelerating up to a good speed, making them perfect for stop-start urban cycling.
Battery capacity and voltage
When you're choosing an electric bike, you'll normally see some figures for the electric motor to tell you how powerful it is. There are two figures you should look at:
- Battery capacity in amp hours - This tells you how much energy the battery can store. A higher number means that the battery can go further!
- Voltage - This tells you how powerful the motor is. The amount of power an e-bike can produce is limited by law in the UK, so this is usually similar for different bikes. Of course, the more powerful your motor, the more quickly you can empty your battery!
A good e-bike will have a selection of different modes to choose from; depending on whether you just need a bit of help to get up to cruising speed or you want more of a push up the hills. You can still get around and get some exercise, but without getting too sweaty in the process! Being able to pick the right mode also means that your battery will last for longer.
Charging an e-bike
When it's time to charge the battery on your e-bike, simply plug it into a household socket. You can buy e-bikes with different sizes of battery depending on how long your journey will be, but some bikes can get between 40 and 50 miles from a single charge! Of course, if you prefer you can just turn up the power to get more speed and help on the hills instead.
Money saving
Riding on an e-bike can save loads of money. An e-bike costs on average 0.4 pence per mile to run. Just compare this to a medium-sized diesel car, which costs 34 pence per mile! What's more, an e-bike is also much more eco-friendly than a car, so you can be kind to Mother Earth as well as your wallet!
Other e-bike features and types
It's important to have a think about where you'll be riding when choosing an e-bike. If you use public transport to get around (or you don't have much space to store your bike at home or work) then you might want to consider a folding electric bike. These have all the benefits of e-bikes, but can be folded up and stowed under a desk or in a cupboard!
If you'll mostly be riding on cycle paths and in the park, or are just looking for a bit of extra comfort, then an e-bike with a suspension fork could be right for you. The fork can take the bumps out of potholed roads, as well as letting you tackle the tracks with confidence!
Electric bikes at Halfords
Electric bikes are getting really popular with people who want to get around more easily and save some money. We've got a great range of e-bikes available at Halfords, and all of our bikes come with a free build and six week service. Take a look online or visit your nearest Halfords store to find the right e-bike for you!
