The investigators tested this by going to the film location and digging down 6 centimeters (because radioactive material migrates down roughly 1 centimeter a year).
The results: 60 years after The Conqueror was filmed, the investigators found a significant "rise" or "bump" in radiation right where the crew was filming.
In fact, specifically, they found Cesium 137. Cesium 137 is not found in nature... and... it's only produced as a result of nuclear fission in reactors or nuclear weapons.
And, Cesium 137 is very problematic, because, it moves and spreads in nature quite easily.
Later in the show, one of the investigators shared these results with Richard L. Miller, a nuclear fallout expert... and then... asked him if he would knowingly participate in a film on that site. His answer? He essentially said...
"Absolutely not... not for any,
Traditional chelation therapy can be very costly.
Even the Mayo Clinic recognizes chelation therapy as "a proven treatment for lead or mercury poisoning."4
However, traditional chelation therapy can be very time consuming and quite costly. Each visit typically costs $100 to $250 and takes approximately 3 1/2 to 4 hours of sitting in a chair with an I.V. needle in your arm. (That's if you can even get in to receive treatment.)
And, most people typically go one to three times a week for months... racking up bills into the thousands of dollars... that... by the way, are not covered by most insurance companies)
Now, there have been at least five other types of chelator agents over the years besides EDTA... all requiring an I.V. needle for administration. However, a relatively new chelator that seems to work well (and comes in an easy-to-swallow vegetarian capsule) is an all-natural substance called...
This near-miracle mineral is a natural combination of volcanic ash and sea water... and... is well known for attracting and helping to eliminate heavy metals from the body and the environment.
So much so, it has been used successfully on a large environmental scale to help with nuclear accident clean up.
For internal human use Zeolite is listed on the Food and Drug Administration's Generally Accepted As Safe (GRAS) list... and... it's known to attach and hold unhealthy heavy metals (like lead, aluminum cadmium, arsenic and mercury) and help to eliminate them through the digestive system.
It's able to do this because it exhibits a "cage" crystalline structure with a negative charge that attracts heavy metals that are mostly positively charged. It then captures these metals in its cage structure so the body can then safely eliminate the Zeolite along with the captured heavy metals.
Anecdotally, users of Zeolite have reported...
These benefits are most likely the result of all bodily functions operating more efficiently when free of heavy metal contaminants and free radicals.
That being the case, we searched for the highest-grade, purest form of Zeolite in the world and acquired the exclusive rights to use this near-miracle mineral in a new product called...
But we didn't stop there. In addition to high-grade, ultra-pure Zeolite, each CheloMax all-natural vegetarian capsule contains 19 other powerhouse nutrients that are designed to work together in a synergistic way to help rid your body of toxic heavy metals and pollutants.
"Synergistic" simply means that the individual ingredients of the formula seem to work in a better way when mixed together than when simply taken by themselves.
Many of these nutritional powerhouses are herbs that have been used in the ancient and much revered Ayurvedic medicine tradition of the Far East... which... originated in India more than 3,000 years ago.
Each CheloMax
Here are the names of those nutrients and a brief description of how they work:
Apple Pectin: A soluble fiber used to treat heavy metal toxicity (lead, mercury, arsenic and other elements) and may help stop the spread of prostate, breast and skin cancer.4
Shilajit:Found mainly in the Himalayas, it is known as a potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and memory enhancer.5
Tulsi: Also known as "Holy Basil" this plant is used to treat colds, flu, diabetes, asthma, heart disease, mercury poisoning and much more.6
Ashwagandha: Used to treat arthritis, anxiety, insomnia, tumors bronchitis, backache, fibromyalgia, menstrual problems, hiccups, and chronic liver disease and more.7
Dulse: Found mainly in the cold waters off the Atlantic coast of Canada, Ireland and Norway, this seaweed is a clinically-proven antioxidant. Its use may help combat the onslaught of environmental toxins that are believed to be causing increases in auto-immune diseases like multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis.8
Bacopa: Research suggests bacopa might protect brain cells from chemicals involved in Alzheimer's. It's also used to treat other neurologic disorders such as ADHD and anxiety... and... as a stress-fighting tonic.9
Rice Bran: Popular in Japan, Asia and India, rice bran is used to treat diabetes, high-blood pressure and a host of other debilitating diseases... even AIDS! It's also well known for its energy-enhancing properties and improving athletic performance.10
Red Clover: A plant used for cancer prevention, indigestion, high cholesterol, cough, asthma, bronchitis, and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Women also use it to alleviate PMS and menopause symptoms.11
Triphala: An herb—composed of three Indian superfruits—that works as an antioxidant, lowers inflammation, helps increase lean body mass and promotes healthy blood sugar levels. It also helps remove toxins that accumulate in the colon.12
Yellow Dock: Yellow dock is used for inflammation of nasal passages and the respiratory tract, and as a laxative and tonic. It is also used to treat bacterial infections and sexually transmitted diseases.13
Milk Thistle: Milk thistle has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. It's used most often for liver disorders (like cirrhosis and hepatitis)... and... to protect liver cells from toxic chemicals and drugs.14
Amla-C: Amla-C is an ultra-potent antioxidant used to treat everything from heart disease to cancer to depression. It also protects liver and kidney function.15
Arjuna Terminalia: Used to treat heart disease... including chest pain, high blood pressure and high cholesterol.16
Cilantro: Also know as coriander, it is used for digestion problems. It's also used to treat infections caused by bacteria and fungus... and... to kill parasites.17
Turmeric: A plant-derived spice that helps treat arthritis, heartburn (and other digestive disorders), liver problems and gallbladder disorders.18
Alfalfa: A nutrient-rich herb used to treat kidney, bladder and prostate conditions. It also lowers cholesterol by preventing its absorption in the gut.19
Garlic: Mainly used as a flavoring for food, garlic also has many medicinal properties. It has been shown to be an effective treatment for heart disease and some cancers. It has also been used to prevent and treat bacterial and fungal infections... and... build the immune system.20
Green Tea: Helps prevent various cancers and is also used for diseases of the heart, Crohn's disease, Parkinson's disease and chronic fatigue syndrome.21
Ginger: Great for a wide range of stomach problems, including, nausea and loss of appetite. It's also used for pain relief.22
The real answer is everyone!
However, there are some people who definitely have had more heavy metal and/or radiation exposure than others (usually because of their occupation). People like:
But like I said, everyone could benefit from a daily heavy metal detoxification program with CheloMax. And...
You have four supply options to choose from:
Best Value! Twelve-Bottle Savings Pack. Save $240.00 when you order 12 bottles (a full year's supply) for just $239.40 plus Shipping and Handling.
Great Value: Six-Bottle Savings Pack. Save $90.00 when you order 6 bottles (a six-month supply) for just $149.70 plus Shipping and Handling.
Good Value: Three-Bottle Savings Pack. Save $30.00 when you order three bottles (a three-month supply) for just $89.85 plus Shipping and Handling.
Trial Offer: One-Bottle Starter Pack. Order one bottle (a one-month supply) for just $39.95 plus Shipping and Handling.
Fast-Reply Free Bonus e-Report:
The Dangerous Truth About
America's "Slow Kill" Agenda!
Many vaccines contain dangerous heavy metals and pose other health hazards you may not even be aware of. Some people (including prominent doctors) claim you can link vaccines directly to autism, chronic disease... and even... death!
This new report will shock you to say the least... and... it will help you realize why a daily heavy metal detoxification method is not a luxury, but a must have in today's world.
This bonus e-report is valued at $19.95, but it's yours free when you order right away!
As I mentioned before, the Zeolite we use in CheloMax is the highest-grade, purest form in the world. It has been specially-cleansed and prepared for human consumption. And, it's on the Food and Drug Administration's Generally Accepted As Safe (GRAS) list.
Therefore, with such high-quality control measures and exacting standards, we can only get a limited number of bottles of CheloMax (containing this ultra-pure Zeolite) at one time.
Right now our supply of CheloMax is pretty slim. In fact, as of this writing, we only have roughly 150 bottles on hand. And, since this announcement is going out to our huge list of friends, family and customers at the same time, we expect to sell out rather quickly.
Seriously, if you wait even a few days, it may be too late... so... it's best to take fast action!
If you try to order after current supplies are gone, you'll be given the option of being put on a "first-come, first-served waiting list" until our next shipment arrives in a few weeks to a month.
Also, please know, you never need to worry about risking anything when you order CheloMax... because... it is fully guaranteed with...
Here's How It Works: Once your order arrives, start using CheloMax as directed. And then, if it doesn't perform like I've described here... if... within a short period of daily use you don't feel an increase in energy, vigor and vitality... clearer thinking and better memory... and... an overall greater sense of well-being... simply send it back any unused portion within 30 days for a full refund of the purchase price. ( less shipping and handling of course)
No hassles. No questions asked. Fair enough? If so...

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Students in Krista Chapman's sixth grade mathematics classes at Carl H. Kumpf Middle School in Clark completed a statistics project using nutritional information from canned foods. All food that was generously given to complete the project is being donated to local food banks in Clark and neighboring communities. Together Ms. Chapman, Mrs. D'Amico, and Mrs. Veit's classes collected hundreds of food items for donation. Students were asked to create different visual displays of nutritional information such as line plots, histograms, and box and whisker plots. Students used the calorie content in the foods as their data values. Students were asked to evaluate other nutritional information to determine if they thought their food item was healthy or unhealthy. Students prepared a group presentation for the class. Pictured, Anthony Diaz, Hannah Vargas, Isabella Venizio, Saul Lopez, Samara Infantino, Brooke Gallo, Nicky DeLoretto, and John Petrucci work on their statistics project.

Rich ordered an ASUS Zenbook from Amazon. It wasn't cheap, totaling $1415 including tax. When it arrived, it had a stuck pixel. No one wants to drop that much money on a computer with a stuck pixel, so he sent it back to ASUS to have the display fixed. The company has a guarantee that their computers won't have this kind of defect, after all. He waited patiently for the computer to come back. It didn't. He became less patient. ASUS has given him two different explanations for why they won't let his computer come home, and they've had it for a month and a half when their own policies state that they won't hold on to a customer's computer for more than two weeks.
ASUS Holds My Laptop Captive For Over A Month, Keeps Changing Reason Why
Why Hollywood Video Zombie Debts Just Won't Go Away
Movie Gallery/Hollywood Video went bankrupt with only one real asset: enough outstanding overdue notices to make a librarian weep. Americans owed the chains something like $125,000,000, which is not a typo. These debts were sold, and the new owners zombified them and really, really want to get their paws on that money. A year and a half after we first reported that customers and even employees were receiving invoices from collection agencies for zombie debts, they're still at it.

Wawa Pays $12,500 To Kicked-Out Customer With Service Dog
Many people in Pennsylvania and New Jersey speak highly of the Wawa chain of convenience stores. Which is why it was a bit of surprise to folks in the area when a man was kicked out of a store earlier this summer because he brought his service dog into the building. Now the chain has not only agreed to fork over a bit of cash to the customer, but to also make sure its employees don't repeat the mistake.

Cab Company Balks At Cleaning Up After Driver Caught Pooping On Sidewalk
You may already have heard about the icky cab driver here in Philadelphia who was caught on camera using a street corner as his personal pooping ground. What you may not know is that — even though the man and his cab company have been identified — no one has come out to actually do much about removing all the offending fecal matter.
Federal Judge Revokes Bail Of Bullying Eyeglass Vendor
Threatening to stalk, rape, mutilate, and kill your customers over a $150 chargeback is not a sustainable business model. We could have told you that, but it took a New York Times investigation, a Google algorithm change, and federal prosecution to stop the Brooklyn entrepreneur who built his eyewear business on the idea that online, there is no such thing as bad publicity. He allegedly sent out counterfeit designer eyewear, or no merchandise at all, then harassed and threatened customers who wanted their money back. When customers complained online, it boosted the profile of his brand. Now a federal judge has revoked the man's bail ahead of sentencing after listening to testimony from some of those customers.
NetZero Locks Me Out Of My Account, Charges By The Minute To Get It Back
Matt has an issue with NetZero's e-mail technical support. "Wait," you might be saying. "People still use NetZero?" Well, Matt does. His e-mail address on the service is very old, but he just hasn't got around to changing the places where it's his e-mail of record. So he keeps paying for it, year after year, importing the messages into Gmail. At least, he did until he was locked out of his account, and couldn't reset the password. NetZero charges by the minute for tech support, but Matt was assured that he wouldn't be charged for a simple password reset. This was incorrect.
TomTom's Top Gear-Branded GPS Is Absolute Rubbish
Kristan, like many sensible and awesome people, was excited when GPS maker TomTom produced a limited edition unit for fans of the BBC program "Top Gear." The biggest draw: the recorded voice of Jeremy Clarkson, the show's lead presenter and an internationally beloved contrarian jerk. Clarkson's voice isn't available for separate purchase from TomTom, at least for American consumers. Oh, no. We have to shell out $269 for this spiffy satnav, and that's what Kristan did. It turned out that the unit….wasn't all that great. But the final insult came when it failed, and TomTom sent a warranty replacement of an inferior unit that contained no Top Gear content and required an additional $60 fee to reactivate the GO LIVE that Kristan had already paid for.
Gay Lowe's Customer Accuses Employees Of Making Slurs, Threats Of Violence

IHOP Apologizes For Waitress Who Mocked Woman With Huntington's
Earlier this week, we told you about the engaged couple who had gone to IHOP with the intention of enjoying a nice pancake dinner, only to end up with a waitress who treated them horribly, mocking the woman's Huntington's disease and referring to her to other employees as a "junkie." The couple had received a half-hearted apology from the manager back in March, but none of the promised follow-up. Then the Internet got involved…

Yes, There Is Such A Thing As Bad Publicity
This week, a massive customer service clusterfracas swept the gaming world, then the rest of the Internet. It involved a game console controller that was late in shipping, a a marketing firm in over its head, a popular webcomic, the unholy wrath of the Internet hate machine, and one humble customer who just wanted to know whether he was going to get his gadget by Christmas or not. What did we learn here? That there is such a thing as bad publicity, and that sometimes people on the Internet actually are who they claim to be.
Chick-Fil-A Cashier Just Assumes Customers' Names Are Ching & Chong
One would think that by this point in the internet's existence that employees at any sort of business that puts customers' names on receipts might be aware of the fact that putting a potentially offensive nickname, description or slur on said receipts is probably nowhere near as hilarious as it initially seems.
Study: Waiting For Installers, Service Techs, Deliveries Costs $37.7 Billion/Year
As I'm sitting here waiting for my new washer/dryer to be dropped off — They are still within the not-at-all-narrow 6-hour window of delivery — I stumble upon this new study that attempts to put a dollar value on the time spent idling while waiting for everything from cable installers to home deliveries.
Which Companies' Policies Do You Love & Which Do You Loathe?
All commercial businesses are in it to make a dollar, but they go about it in so many different ways. Some retailers (and airlines, banks, hotels, food services, etc.) see the customer as a money sponge from which they can — and should — wring every cent through consumer-antagonizing fees and policies. And on the other end of the spectrum are companies that keep their customers happy and coming back with policies that favor the consumer.

David Ortiz is set to get booed at Yankee Stadium, Chris Sale is ready to resume striking out Kris Bryant and the Kansas City Royals are facing a rugged road back to the playoffs.
Now that the All-Star fun is finished, a look at what's on deck as Major League Baseball makes the turn and heads home toward October:
Pennant push
NEW YORK — In a nod to new technology, Major League Baseball will tweak its postseason tradition and add a seventh umpire to rotate between the replay booth and field for the World Series and league championship series.
The changes will take effect for best-of-seven matchups this October, a person familiar with the format told The Associated Press.
KISSIMMEE — Propped up next to a satellite production truck, peering at a laptop outside Osceola County Stadium, Cullen McRae was practicing.
Not hitting. Or pitching. Or fielding.
The son of former big league star and manager Hal McRae was busy watching TV. Specifically, preparing for his role as a replay wizard, a video review coordinator for the Miami Marlins.
"It's cool to be a part of history," he said after Miami beat Houston 7-2 Friday. "It's a work in progress for all of us."
Mike Scioscia moved his left fielder onto the infield dirt, then watched him start a double play. Matt Williams tried a similar trick — he put his right fielder on the grass behind the mound, only to see a bases-loaded triple fly into the vacated spot.
All over the majors this year, the shift is on.
From the designer defenses taking over the game, to expanded replay, to opening day on a cricket ground in Australia, baseball is changing.
Those scraggly beards of the World Series champion Boston Red Sox? Shaved off, mostly. Soon Derek Jeter will be gone, too.
NEW YORK — Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter says he will retire after this season "with absolutely no regrets," ending one of the greatest careers in the history of baseball's most storied franchise.
The 39-year-old New York captain posted a long letter on his Facebook page Wednesday saying that 2014 will be his final year.
A 13-time All-Star who has led the Yankees to five World Series championships, Jeter was limited to 17 games last season while trying to recover from a broken left ankle sustained during the 2012 playoffs.
NEW YORK — Sky the wire fox terrier became America's top dog Tuesday night, winning best in show at the Westminster Kennel Club.
The No. 1 show dog in the country last year, Sky went wire to wire.
She beat out a standard poodle, a Portuguese water dog, bloodhound, an Irish water spaniel, a Cardigan Welsh corgi and a miniature pinscher.
Judge Betty Regina Leininger picked the winner inside a nearly full Madison Square Garden as the fans called out for their favorites. The standard poodle named Ally was chosen as the runner-up.
NEW YORK — Big league pitchers might feel safer on the mound this season.
Major League Baseball has approved a protective cap for pitchers, hoping to reduce the damage from line drives to head that have brought some terrifying and bloody scenes in the last few years.
The heavier and bigger new hat was introduced Tuesday and will be available for testing during spring training on a voluntary basis. Major leaguers and minor leaguers won't be required to wear it — comfort is likely to be a primary concern.
NEW YORK — All those who marvel at Miguel Cabrera can only wonder what he might've done this year if completely healthy.
Even so, Cabrera was a huge hit in Motown.
Despite being hobbled by all sorts of ailments, the Detroit Tigers slugger won his second straight American League Most Valuable Player award Thursday, once again beating Angels outfielder Mike Trout by a comfortable margin.
A season after winning baseball's first Triple Crown in 45 years, Cabrera came back to lead the majors in hitting at .348 and finish second with 44 home runs and 137 RBIs.
NEW YORK — Clayton Kershaw of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Max Scherzer of the Detroit Tigers breezed Wednesday to baseball's Cy Young Awards.
Kershaw won the prize as the National League's best pitcher for the second time in three seasons after posting a 1.83 ERA — lowest in the majors in 13 years.
"This is such a cool thing. I can't even explain what it means to me," Kershaw said in an interview on MLB Network. "It really is a huge honor."
BOSTON — David Ortiz and the Boston Red Sox romped to their third World Series championship in 10 seasons, thumping October ace Michael Wacha and the St. Louis Cardinals 6-1 Wednesday night in Game 6.
Shane Victorino drove in four runs and John Lackey pitched shutout ball into the seventh inning as the Red Sox clinched a crown on their own field for the first time since 1918.
Jon Lester pitched the Boston Red Sox within a whisker of yet another World Series championship.
Lester bested Adam Wainwright once again, journeyman David Ross hit a tiebreaking double in the seventh inning and the Red Sox downed the St. Louis Cardinals 3-1 Monday night to take a 3-2 Series edge.
David Ortiz delivered his latest big hit, too, sending this bearded band of Red Sox back to Fenway Park with a chance to clinch their third crown in a decade. Not since 1918 has Boston won the title at its own ballpark.

Used syringes, feces, grafetti on wiese at 16th ► Open83 Wiese St San Francisco, California
Tuesday June 7th 2016 4:30pm
I had to warn a mother with her 2 sons abount the dirty dangerous used syringe on Wiese St. One of her two sons already was walking ahead of her oblivious to the neddles and feces all up and down the street. When you drove down Wiese then park your car nearby don't wash it before looking for needles stuck in your tires (or shoes). Of course, hold your nose wether driving, biking or walking down wiese. The smell of urine outside Los Coyotes on 16th at Wiese was enough to make you throw up your taqarea from Los Coyotes Then there is the homeless latino lady in the wheel chair asking the few who go down Wiese for money. She is probably more than a homeless lady in a wheel chair. She seemed to be a look out for the others who were smart enough to leave. The wheel chair lady pretended to hit the curb and down she went out of her wheel chair face planted on the urine, feces syringe pavement. New Gang grafetti will be painted over and feces cleaned up by dpw ( all but the spot in front of the gand bangers house). Los coyotes will have to keep their outside area clean especially if they are going to violate code and keep their trash bins out 24 hrs attracting rats and feces spraying addicts and homeless and homeless addicts.· Reported by .. · Share · Flag Flagged

Thank you for submitting this request to the City Attorney's Office.
The San Francisco Health Code requires property owners to maintain their property free of public health nuisances such as mold, garbage, insects, pests, rodents and toxic hazards. The San Francisco Department of Public Health (SFDPH) has several programs that enforce these requirements. The Healthy Housing and Vector Control Program at SFDPH monitors environmental conditions that can lead to breeding of pests, such as garbage accumulation, neglected & overgrown vegetation, and stagnant water.
I reported the issue at 3421 20th Street to the Healthy Housing and Vector Control Program. They are processing this complaint now. When I receive an official complaint number from their office, I will forward it to you for your reference.
For more information on DPH's Healthy Housing and Vector Control Program, please visit http://www.sfdph.org/dph/EH/Vector/default.asp. If you would like to contact their office directly, they can be reached at (415) 252-3805.
Please note that service requests/complaints are assigned to an Environmental Health inspector. Most service requests result in an on-site physical inspection by an inspector. DPH's goal is to conduct an inspection within a week of receiving an initial request.
If a violation(s) is found, the inspector will issue the responsible party a Notice of Violation describing the violation, corrective actions needed, and a correction time. Correction time varies from 1-30 days.

According to the DPW's own web site, the is a DPW issue:
"Residents may call 3-1-1 to make a report, or make an online 311 service request." Is 311 going to log this as an issue?
The answer is, Yes. Once you place a call with a 311 operator, simply ask for the "service request number" and retain for follow up in the future.

There is an article on this building, I guess it's been reported extensively and the city is looking into it.

Spain's Maritime Rescue service on Sunday intercepted a boat carrying 52 sub-Saharan migrants in ocean waters south of Spain, some four miles from the island of Alboran.
Among the people on board the open boat were 12 women and five young children.
The boat - which is six meters (19.5 feet) long and equipped with an outboard motor - is being transferred to the port of Motril, in the province of Granada, emergency authorities told Efe.
The vessel was spotted initially by the military detachment on Alboran Island, which informed the ocean rescue service, a boat from which then intercepted it early Sunday afternoon.
In Motril, the migrants will be attended to by the Red Cross before they are placed at the disposition of the police. EFE

Product Description:
The mayor of New York City hires a disgraced ex-cop to identify his wife's lover, setting into motion a scandalous series of events in this post-noir thriller from director Albert Hughes (FROM HELL, THE BOOK OF ELI). Billy Taggart (Mark Wahlberg) was on his way to becoming one of the Big Apple's top cops when a high-profile shooting cut his promising career short. His reputation destroyed in the flash of a muzzle, Billy gets a break when the city's popular mayor (Russell Crowe) pulls some strings to ensure he doesn't serve time. Meanwhile, Billy puts his investigative skills to work as a private detective. When the mayor offers Billy $50,000 to expose his wife's infidelities, the offer is too good to pass up. But by the time the mayor reveals his true intentions, Billy is already in too deep. Now, with his freedom -- and quite possible his life -- on the line, Billy will risk it all in a desperate bid to expose the truth, and seek redemption in a city where second chances don't come cheap. Catherine Zeta-Jones, Jeffrey Wright, and Barry Pepper co-star.

Couple ID'd in apparent murder-suicide
GARDEN GROVE – A married couple who died Thursday in what police suspect was a murder-suicide has been identified by the Coroner's Office.
Thanh Vuong, 52, and his wife Yvone Tran, 39, were found dead inside their home in the 15000 block of Sail Avenue. Investigators believe Vuong shot and killed Tran before killing himself.
Police went to the home after receiving a 911 call about 4:15 a.m., though the original caller hung up. A man then called back and told dispatchers that a relative may have shot his wife and then himself, authorities said. The coroner estimated that the wife died about 4 a.m. and the husband about 15 minutes later.
Family members told investigators the couple were having marital problems and were considering divorce.
The couple had two children, a 4-year-old boy and 17-year-old girl, police said, but it is unclear if the children were in the home at the time of the shootings or at another family member's house.

Proposed WAC Changes
Health and Safety Regulations Specific to Washington State University (WSU) Pullman
The University is proposing the following changes to the Washington Administrative Code:
- New chapter WAC Chapter 504-38: Health and Safety Regulations Specific to Washington State University Pullman.
WSU is adding health and safety policy and regulations for WSU Pullman. WSU seeks a tobacco-free campus to include all campus grounds, state-owned vehicles, and equipment at Pullman. This will be in addition to the WSU Spokane and WSU Vancouver campuses that are already tobacco-free. The Washington Clean Indoor Act currently prohibits smoking in public buildings and places of employment, as well as within twenty-five feet of doors, windows, and ventilation intakes. NOTE: The Board of Regents adopted these new rules on October 30, 2015. The rules will become effective on August 22, 2016.
To view the text of these new rules, see the WSR 15-24-043 at the Code Reviser's Office Washington State Register website:

What to say about an uphill slog called Crazy, Stupid, Love? It's not nearly crazy enough to clear the clogged arteries of summer comedies, and when the love appears, it's in all the wrong places. Oh well, at least they nailed the stupid part.

Sep 10, 2011This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. It's raining frogs all throughout the city landscape, coming down in webbed sheets on its inhabitants, in which a chosen few, the filmically demarcated, some sad, others sadder, are just looking for somebody to love. The frogs in "Magnolia" is a verifiable miracle, proof positive that god exists. The amphibious downpour signifies hope, empirical evidence that anything can happen, and does, in the film's last scene where a drug-addled woman, lecherously maltreated by her incestuous father, smiles, probably for the first time in years, courtesy of a friendly cop, who says the magic words that jump starts Claudia's dead heart which kept daddy's plundered little girl in mental confinement since "it" happened, just before the screen fades to black. When the world(of P.T.A.) fades in again, in "Punch-Drunk Love"( the 2002 anti-romantic comedy that suggests the existence of soulmates), miracles still never ceases to amaze, offering even more proof of an all powerful, all knowing, absolute being, who manifests himself at a payphone, alongside an advancing parade down some Waikiki street, where the grace of god reflects back into the face of a bipolar bathroom supply wholesaler named Barry Egan(Adam Sandler), as he talks to Lena, the woman who falls in love with him, inexplicably. The harmonium is the miracle which started it all; the accidental harmonium, deposited curbside by some faceless man in a van, as it turns out, was a sign, a vestigial prompting which announces that a little music will soon be coming into Barry's life very shortly. Only seconds earlier, from the street's horizon where the small business owner works out of his warehouse, a fast-approaching vehicle veers from its straightaway destination, clipping a parked car, sending the wayward SUV into a flip and series of rolls, concurrently with the arrival of "the small piano". It's as if the devil and god are racing in the street, making a bid for Barry's soul. The very fact that Barry goes nowhere near the wreck would seem to indicate that the scene is largely allegorical. He knows who's driving, Like Claudia, the blue-suited man has his share of demons(he has mean sisters), yet yearns to be good, so he keeps his eyes on the prize, the harmonium, and ignores the disharmonious cacophony of pulverized metal and steel, whose music isn't suitable for deliverance. Soon after Barry meets his soulmate for the first time(when Lena drops off her car at the garage), he chooses love; chooses to take a chance on the harmonium, when he claims it from the sidewalk, clutching the instrument to his chest, tightly, at long last, taking a chance on life, as he runs back to the warehouse. The harmonium plays "soul music"; the harmonium is the filmmaker's visualization of the ancient proverb: "God works in mysterious ways." Lena is, in essence, an extension of the air-driven keyboard. A soulmate is the first miracle; a soulmate who just happens to attend the same high school as you, now that's the second miracle. "I'm pretty sure I'm your soulmate," says eighth grader Robbie Weaver quite matter-of-factly to his babysitter, in "Crazy, Stupid, Love", a multi-narrative film, that, at times, functions as an auxiliary world for "the freaks who suspect they could never love anyone," who populate Anderson's city of losers. Jacob, a serial womanizer, could be one of those guys who caught T.J. Mackey's "Seduce & Destroy" infomercial on late night T.V., bought the DVDs, and attended the seminar led by the toxic motivational speaker, sitting in a darkened auditorium with the other aspiring misogynistic libertines, taking notes on how to "tame that ****", along with other tricks of the trade, known to all great pick-up artists. Funny thing though, you never actually see the f*ck guru apply his craft; he's all rhetoric and no practice, whereas Jacob, always on the prowl at an upscale nightclub, gets the pick of the litter on a nightly basis. From the women-draped table he presides over, the tomcat spots Cal, "quietly judging [him]", and becomes his mentor, when the cuckolded man's whining over a disloyal wife starts to grate on Jacob's nerves. Emily is Cal's soulmate. But how can that be? She cheated on him. Hanna is Jacob's soulmate, but this horndog is somebody who knows "How To Fake Like You Are Nice And Caring". In "Bedtime Stories", like an ironic homage to "Magnolia", Skeeter(Sandler) gets rained on by gumballs; it's Exodus redux, but then the camera tilts up, revealing a breech in the truck carrying the sugary cargo, suggesting that for every supposed miracle, therein lies a logical explanation. Earl Partridge, a dying old man with regrets(from "Magnolia"), was once Robbie's age, thinking of his future wife in the same heavenly terms as the boy does towards the high school senior. But Earl was an adulterer, just like Emma, and so will Jacob, and perhaps even young, idealistic Robbie, because men do "terrible things".… Full Review »

DVD Review: FOX's Clever 'The Cleveland Show: Season One'Submitted by BrianTT on October 5, 2010 - 11:48am
CHICAGO – What's the best animated program on Sunday nights? Sadly, it hasn't been "The Simpsons" for years and the most-recent reigning champ, "Family Guy" has been like a tire with a pinhole leak over the last few seasons, slowly becoming less creative with each passing episode. No, the most consistent and creative cartoon on the evening is the spin-off "The Cleveland Show" and the show's first season is now available on DVD.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- In 1998, Charles Woodson was the fourth overall pick in the NFL Draft by Oakland and Raiders wide receiver Tim Brown was coming off his best season when he caught 104 passes for 1,408 yards and five touchdowns.
Woodson's introduction to Brown, the Dallas native who is a Hall of Fame finalist this year, at training camp did not go so well.
"Tim might've ran a triple move on me or something like that," Woodson said "Actually I was pretty embarrassed. We were running one on ones and there's no pass rush and he kind of left me in the dust a little bit. I had some great battles with Tim. He's a guy that they always used him in motion and he did a great job of understanding leverages and getting open coming out of his routes, so I learned a lot, playing and going against him every day. That's what prepared me to play in the games, going against a guy who hopefully is a Hall of Famer."
Brown will learn on Saturday whether he will get selected and we will have more on his candidacy n Wednesday.
What did he remember about Woodson?
"I was happy when training camp was over, I can tell you that, so we didn't have to go up against each other anymore," Brown said.

Metal Gear series
Group DescriptionMetal Gear games, self-described as "tactical espionage action", are action games with a heavy emphasis on stealth. Most Metal Gear games were designed by Hideo Kojima and developed by Konami. The events depicted in the games usually take place in the near future (a few years later than their respective release dates), though some of the games are set during the Cold War period of the 20th century. The games share an overarching storyline and recurrent characters, most notably the special forces operative with the codename Solid Snake.
The series made its debut in 1987, with the release of the first Metal Gear, which established its gameplay style and general tone. The gameplay in Metal Gear games encourages stealthy approach; the protagonist must typically avoid attention in order to succeed. However, direct confrontation is not uncommon: during the course of the games, the main character may use firearms, engage opponents in hand-to-hand combat, and face mandatory boss enemies. Many tasks in these games take the shape of mini-game-like activities.
Starting with Metal Gear Solid (1998), the series have become known for extended usage of cinematic cutscenes, conversations, and storylines that touched upon political, ethical, and philosophical problems.
- Dub-step artist Burial's track Near Dark from the album Untrue (2007) contains samples of bullet casings hitting the floor, taken from one of the Metal Gear Solid games.
