Diverse crowd on hand in Willmar, Minn., as officials discuss statewide biking opportunities
WILLMAR -- Mayors, public works directors and people who just like riding their bikes met Monday with state officials to discuss what could be done to improve cycling in Minnesota.
About 30 people attended the Statewide Bicycle Planning Study public meeting at the Willmar Municipal Utilities building.
There state transportation department officials and consultants led the group through a series of activities to determine the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats faced by efforts to improve cycling opportunities throughout the state.
"What changes can we begin to make today?" asked moderator Antonio Rossell of Community Design Group in Minneapolis.
"What can we do to make bicycling as maximally wonderful as possible?"
Comments and questions collected during the public sessions and those with MnDOT staff at the department's eight districts will be used to better implement planning for bicycling, Rosell said.
One issue already uncovered is the absence of a single registry of bikeways throughout the state.
"The last one was done in 2001 and a lot has changed since then,"Rosell said.
A single electronic map of trails and streets and road that accommodate cyclists throughout the state would allow people to plan rides using a computer or smartphone. It would allow them to find out where they can go for a ride with their children and where they can set up a ride for their cycling club, Rosell said.
Monday's event was the fifth public session, said Greta Alquist, a senior MnDOT transportation planner and manager of the bike study project.
"What we've seen consistently is a diverse crowd of people,"Alquist said. There are people at each session who bike for transportation and others who do it for exercise.
"There are people who like trails and there are people who like to be on streets," she said.
But, no matter their preferences, many people attending the sessions were worried about the state's financial situation and its impact on bicycle projects, Alquist said.
"It's best to improve the process for project development to have an idea how to prioritize," she said, adding that the meetings were intended to help do that.
"There's a big demand for more and better bike facilities spending," Alquist said.
But Minnesota has already proven its support for cycling, Alquist said, explaining that it is rated fourth among states for its accommodations for bicyclists.
That status was earned because of efforts by the state, counties, cities and concerned citizens, some of those attending pointed out.
But much of what has been done for cyclists is because of a factor Jeff Vetsch explained: "There's broad support for biking," Vetsch said. "It's not from the top down but from the bottom up."
Other public planning study meetings will be held today in Detroit Lakes, Wednesday in St. Cloud and Thursday in Duluth. There will be a webinar discussion from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. March 22 at www.dot.state.mn.us/bike/study.html. More information on the study can be found at the same website.

The availability on the market for general use of the jet dermal injector has raised many questions in the minds of the medical profession and lay individuals who have either purchased such instruments or are contemplating doing so. This applies particularly to use in the administration of insulin.Unfortunately, the only published work on the comparative efficiency of needle vs. jet administration of insulin was done in 1949 to 19501 and appeared to show no significant difference in the effect or dosage between the two methods.In the succeeding five years, approximately 35 diabetics received their insulin by jet injection with generally satisfactory results, although a few were unable to master the necessary technique satisfactorily. These diabetics were composed of three groups for whom this type of injection has special advantages or appeal: (1) children in the 10 to 16 years of age group who were

THEATER REVIEW: CSC's Movable Shakespeare's RICHARD III
"No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity. But I know none, and therefore am no beast."
― William Shakespeare, Richard III
There is no shortage of villains in the oeuvre of the writer known as William Shakespeare. From the machinations of Hamlet's Uncle-cum-Father who puts Hamlet 'too much in the Sun', to the deviousness of Othello's 'trusted' Iago, to the bloody, eye-plucking Cornwall in King Lear, but none are so ever quotable, and perhaps as eminently watchable as Richard III, who is of such expanse in his villainy that he is the star of his own self-titled play, rather than just a player in another character's tale.
And this comes to life in florid detail in the Chesapeake Shakespeare Company's unique production of RICHARD III. Directed by Ian Gallanar, one of the CSC's founders, RICHARD III is presented in a 'movable' style that puts the audience, truly in the heart of the action and makes them mute(and not so mute) chorus to this tale of treachery and tragedy.
Taking place in the 'haunted' ruins at the Patapsco Female Institute Historic Park in Ellicott City, Maryland, beneath the stars and the eyes of God, it is truly a presentation to remember. Particularly on a good, clear fall night (which we were blessed to see it on) with the wind picking up just a little, and showering Richard III with leaves, almost on queue, as he woos a man's widow over his corpse. Ay, it's a great thing, when the heavens provide your special effects.
And the whole play went thus, as a crowd of over 100, moved from picturesque room or steps or courtyard, moved from scene to scene, and watched actors of talent and temper… a tale unfold.
And before getting into the actors, a bit more on the setting.
Ellicott City is a 30 square mile area, more loose community than incorporated sub-division, that traces its history back to its founding as a Flour Mill back in 1772 by Quaker Brothers named Ellicott. Nestled in the Baltimore-Washington bosom, the area is rumored to, like Rome, be built on seven hills.
So this is no concrete jungle or 'great white way' for your theatrical experience, it is a beautiful and languid tree-lined drive, followed by a pretty spooky uphill walk to make the (typically) 8pm showing, that takes place in the Grecian tinged ruins of the Patapsco Female Institute.
So that is the stage, not New York, or Charlotte, or DC or LA, but the woodlands of Ellicott City; and the PFI Historic Park is a stage worth traveling to see.
Now for those who prance upon that stage.
While there are many strengths to an outdoor production, there are also obvious weaknesses. There are minor moments of congestion and confusion inherent in herding a hundred people to and fro, and that very act of going in and out of the 'reality' of the play, perhaps can limit how engrossed the viewer can get into the play.
However I think the immediacy of being 'in' the play, and viewing that closely the actors and interacting in their space, compensates for any loss of concentrated immersion in the piece.
However one other weakness of an outdoor production, is the sound. Without the acoustics and sound system of a real theater the actors have to project to be heard, particularly should the weather pick up. Some actors were better at doing this than others. Some actors needed to project better. And some actors were stellar.
The word stellar has to be kept close to the name Vince Eisenson who stars as the titular Richard the IIIrd. He has, as expected, to carry much of the play, much of the language, much of the energy. It is a ponderous role to undertake, and Eisenson manages not just to suffer the weight of the role, but to carry it as if he was born to it.
Part of this may have to do with his youth, but more than that Eisenson's Richard is a far more vibrant and lively Richard, no less tortured than other actors who have portrayed the character, but there is a sophistication there, a deft touch to his portrayal, that eschews mustache twirling, that makes the character's ability to charm and deceive, more believable here.
Also of note is the performance of Associate Director Scott Allan Small, as he makes the role of Buckingham, that I think can often come off as no more than a yes man, into one of the formidable figures of the play. He particularly just shines in the scene where he mixes with the audience as he 'attempts' to get Richard to accept the crown.
Also the scene where Buckingham draws the line at the slaying of children, and demands his due of Richard, I thought was just played beautifully between the two actors of Eisenson and Small. The physicality of how they played that role, with Buckingham played as the brick wall in that scene (like Marvel Comics' Kingpin transplanted to Shakespeare), against Richard's flowing water, that seeps into the brick… and breaks it all to pieces.
And the CSC performance is filled with such capable actors, among them Dave Gamble, Greg Burgess, and Jamie Jager in a passionate performance as Richmond. Another highlight scene is with Ron Heneghan delivering a very captivating performance as the imprisoned Clarence; it takes place in a fireplace dominated prison opposite equally entertaining performances by Bart Debicki as Brackenbury (the lieutenant of the tower) and the actors playing his assassins (Rebecca Dreyfuss and Jared Murray).
All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable and recommended production, by a theater company I do not think you would be wrong, in calling world class. And this is typified by the fact that the last few performances of their RICHARD III (ending the weekend of this writing) are all sold out.
But don't mourn too much, if moved by this review to sample the Chesapeake Shakespeare Company in the future and will be visiting the East Coast, 2013 brings new CSC productions of Shakespeare's classic plays, among them ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA and THE TAMING OF THE SHREW.
And If RICHARD III is a gauge, both shows will be much labored over in their construction, and much loved in their delivery.
Accolades go out to communications Director Sandra Maddox Barton for all her assistance, in making this review possible.
THE TOP 3 Actor Ad-Libs of All Time!!!
To paraphrase Rodney Dangerfield, Actors, their salaries aside, tend to have to put up with more than their share of disrespect. Generally from people that don't have anything close to talent, and their only joy is pushing people from pedestals. The unwashed masses that have nothing but venom to spout about the personal lives of the Cruises or the Woods or the Gibsons.
As long as someone's personal life isn't affecting my life, or is not changing the laws or policy I have to endure, I don't give a good darn. Someone wants to be a Scientologist or Mormon or the last Scion of Zion… more power to em.
I tend to give people more leeway than most. Mostly because though I don't believe in much, I do believe that 'let him without sin, cast the first stone'. So Romney needs to shut the eff up.🙂.
And getting back to actors, in particular, they are often seen as primadonnas, who get paid much and bring little. And no doubt there are the ones for whom that belief is completely accurate. But on the whole I think it's something of an impressive calling.
To give everything, your hurt and your joy, to crowd and stage and screen.
Writers particularly tend to view Actors adversarially, 'Don't you dare change my line!'.
But when you have a committed actor, feeling the part, living the role, being the moment…their ad-libs, their additions…. can be priceless. Can be in certain cases, the most memorable lines of a film.
Three standout cases come to mind.
And counting down….
PAT GARRETT AND BILLY THE KID- I've mentioned this before, but can never get enough PAT GARRET & BILLY THE KID.🙂
R.C. Armstrong, born in 1917, (95 years ago, and by all reports still going strong) delivered one of the quintessential lines in Pekinpah's PAT GARRETT & BILLY THE KID. As is well documented, Pekinpah had a way of riling up actors to get a performance out of them, he did that with the 6'3″ mean as a rattlesnake R.C. Armstrong and Kris Kristofferson had the bad luck of being the object of that realism.🙂. R.C. bringing his fundamental upbringing into the crafting of this line…
"Your problem is you don't know about Jesus! I'll show you! I'll take you for a walk across Hell, on a Spider Web!"
What an awesome line, next up….
THEY LIVE- Roddy Piper's biggest step from the squared circle, into the lights of Hollywood came with this John Carpenter film, and the wrestler turned actor attacked it. Giving a great performance in a great film, opposite the always impressive Keith David. But even more than his performance, it's probably this line he added, that stood out for a whole generation of people seeing the film—
"I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass… and I'm all out of bubblegum."
heh, heh, heh, I never get tired of that line (A really close followup to that, from the same movie is.."Life's a b*tch… and she's back in heat!". Aww that roddy Roddy Piper!🙂 And the number #1 Actor Added Line of ALL Time IS!!!!!
Rutger Hauer in Blade Runner!!!!!
BLADE RUNNER- Rutger Hauer seeing the climatic scene of Ridley Scott's chaotic production needed something, came up with this, my favorite bit of 'not in the script or the book' writing, that anyone has brought to the table—
"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I've watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."
Well all three actors take a bow. Your Awards are being kept safe for you, until you ask me for them🙂.
As far as you writers, you can all stand suitably chastised. And all you film fans… go out there and treat yourself to a classic flick!!
Enjoy!!! And remember (leaving you with one more Actor Added line)…
Who Loves Ya Baby?🙂
WARNER BROTHERS, CASABLANCA, PIRATES, and The Rights of MAN?!
You know, after a hellacious week of giving people what for, nothing relaxes me more than curling up with a nice nature DVD. Attenborough's LIFE, or in this case the documentary SHARKWATER.
So here I go, I put in this DVD to relax, while planning the latest update for the blog, and more mundane things like bills, when what the heck should come on the screen than one of those pirate warnings. You've seen these idiotic videos, that if anything only makes me want to do the exact opposite just to give it to them for interrupting my damn movie.
However I had not seen this one before.
This one used scenes from CASABLANCA to make an anti-pirating commercial. Excuse me? WTF?
You're going to use one of the greatest movies ever made like a 2bit whore to sell your political or corporate viewpoint?!!
(And it is worth noting that the FBI warning on these DVDs, having very little to do with any sane legal system. A sane system would say to the studios "It's not our business to ensure your corporate profits or protect your corporate losses. That's a civil case… at best.". Instead in the corrupt America we live in, the FBI warning is a product of studios making their commercial and corporate whims into laws. Using a system, not designed for corporations, to pass corporate whims and lunacy as Federal laws. Such a thing can not be looked at, by anyone rationally, and not see it as something… obscene)
You want to show violating rights is wrong, by using a commercial where you violate artistic rights?
Is the paradox lost on the studios?
Where do we draw the line? Next we use Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman's images to praise one candidate for President and put down another? Where do we draw the line?
Both Bogart and Berman were deeply humanistic and activistic people, Bogart stood up against the McCarthy Witch-hunts. Bergman spent her days, after the lights of Hollywood, feeding and fighting for the poor.
I don't think either one would have signed on in life to do a commercial for some companies new generation witch-hunt. And I don't think they sign over those rights in death.
Because they did a popular movie, and you own the movie, should not then translate into you re-purposing their images to sell either your political agenda, your new vacuum cleaner, or your poorly made or counter-productive pirating campaign.
Those actors didn't sign off on that, and weren't paid for that. And this push to extend ownership beyond the exact product they created… to ownership of their likenesses… reeks. It is immoral. That, if anything, is true pirating.
They purpose not this end, when they purpose their services.
It sets an ugly an abhorrent precedent, an argument that flies in the face of Warner Brothers Anti-Piracy message. Warner violating with impunity the artistic integrity of their own film, and the rights of the actors.
Unless you're paying them, their images, not their likenesses but their actual images, should not be re-purposed to create a new item, inherently different from the item they signed on to produce.
In many ways it's like rewriting someone's autobiography or a writer's novel. For an actor all they have is the work, the images they leave behind. So to then insert them convincingly in a commercial, is just as wrong as inserting them into a porno.
It's a violation.
And to not understand that, is to be very young, or very stupid. Or an executive.
Is piracy wrong? First I think it is an idiotic term, unless you're at sea. Now if you're talking about the copying of copyrighted DVDs, I think it's a tempest in a teapot. If Warner Bros and other studios embraced their customers rather than criminalizing them all in advance (which is what me having to sit through an FBI warning or one of those stupid commercials on a DVD I just bought or rented… is doing. It's saying to the consumer we're going to treat you all as guilty until proven innocent) they would realize most people are happy to pay and own, a quality and reasonably priced product.
But there's the rub, quality and reasonable prices. All companies want to do today is give you the least they can, for the most they can.
I'll tell you what is wrong… Warner Brothers and all the studios like them are wrong, they are dinosaurs trying to survive in a changing technological society where big studios are increasingly superfluous. Rather than try and survive by being better and winning customers through innovation and great products, they instead want to survive by removing from you… choice. By scaring, suing, legislating, themselves as a law that we must fear, and bow down to, and pay tribute to because they are using the FBI and the courts like their personal thugs,
Warner Brothers should be glad people think enough of their work to desire it. Because the alternative is… people stop wanting… ANYTHING from them.
The consumer may start saying "You know what, there's a lot of choice out there, despite Warner Brothers attempt to eradicate choice, why don't we just stop buying or supporting anything Warner Brothers?"
Can you imagine that. People just get fed up of being treated like dogs by Warner Brothers, and just say to them, 'you're that worried about your intellectual property? Well you keep it then. You keep it all. We already have the memories of all the decent movies, keep anything new. Keep your DVDs, keep your games, keep your movies, keep your books.'
And after a few months of them not having to worry about patron or pirate, I'd love to see how their effing tune changes. They'd be crying for someone to think enough of their movies to sell bootlegs on the streets of Nepal.
It's about perspective. And the perspective the studios and record companies and media oligarchies must come to, is that of earning customer business and customer goodwill… rather than attempting to lock in customers through terror.
Because here from these subtle fights, do great things grow.
And they are things the studios will not like at all.
As simple a thing, seemingly insignificant a thing as a tax on tea changed the face of the world, Today's corporate atmosphere of pushing and prodding, with every move a crime, and in every hand a club… cannot do less.
There is a war of terror coming, that much the media 'talking heads' have right. But it's not one of religions. It's one between the mindless stupidity and greed of corporations… and the very rights of man.
And it is a war, that in the waging the rich will lose. And the poor, who have only lives to lose…and pushed to it… can only win.
So a wise man would say to the rich… 'now may be a good time to stop pushing'.
Something to think about.🙂.

-The first US combat troops arrive in Vietnam. By the end of the year, 190,000 American soldiers are in Vietnam.
-In the Audubon Ballroom in New york City on 21 Feb 1965 El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz (perhaps better known as Malcolm X) was assassinated before a crowd of hundreds including his pregnant wife, and 3 of his 4 children.
-18th March, 1965: A Soviet cosmonaut known as Lt. Col. Alexei Leonov exited the spacecraft Voskshod II for a short "spin". He completed a somersault, and then proceeded to take pictures of space. This took place just days before the U.S. planned to launch its first two-man spaceship and becomes the first man to walk in space.
-18th February, 1965 : An avalanche and Glacial Slide caused the deaths of 26 miners who were removing copper ore from underneath a glacier in British Columbia.
-15th February, 1965 : It was proclaimed by Queen Elizabeth II of England that the Maple leaf would become Canada's new national flag symbol.
-20th February, 1965 : The Ranger 8 spacecraft crashed on the moon after sending back thousands of pictures of the lunar surface
-2nd March : The Sound of Music Premier 1965
-7th March, 1965 : Troopers with night sticks, shotguns and tear-gas grenades violently confronted 600 civil rights marchers during an attempted 50-mile march from Selma to the Alabama state capitol Montgomery.
-Optical Disk —– 1965 USA by James Russell – now Compact Disk CD / DVD
-The Supremes, "Stop! In The Name Of Love" rises to the top of the charts
So that's a look at the world 46 years ago. And for a bigger kick to put that world in perspective, here are what things cost then (US prices):
Cost of a new home: $21,500.00
Cost of a first-class stamp: $0.05
Cost of a gallon of regular gas: $0.31
Cost of a dozen eggs: $0.53
Cost of a gallon of Milk: $0.95
Federal debt: $322.3 billion
Average Income per year $6,450.00 (Needless to say this average income bought you a lot more more back then, than today's average income of $39,423.00 is going to buy you. For one thing far more of today's money is eaten up in taxes upon taxes, and most things have multiplied faster than income… ie stamps and petrol and the price of a house are nearly 10 times 1965 levels, while income is barely 6 times 1965 levels. So income is trailing inflation by nearly 50% overtime, and that's not even accounting for various new forms of taxation. And just think, you thought this was just a Doctor Who review!🙂 )
While the Brits may have been watching Doctor Who (and let's be honest, very few of them were doing that), In the States the airwaves were packed with shows eating up the ratings from THE FUGITIVE to BEWITCHED to MAN FROM UNCLE to VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA to BONANZA to ED SULLIVAN to JONNY QUEST to popular music shows such as SHINGDIG. And 1965 would only provide more programs to keep Americans occupied.
It wouldn't be till the late 70s, and Public Broadcasting's increased efforts going across the pond for programming… that would introduce the States to this thing called Doctor Who. And indeed give the show the added funding to keep it running, when other BBC shows of the period had given up the ghost.
And being one of the few shows of the fantastic, Doctor Who offered a cross cultural appeal that continues to… stand the test of time. So to speak.🙂
So without further ado the review of the 13th Doctor Who story, starring William Hartnell and written by Bill Strutton, produced by Verity Lambert, and directed by Richard Martin:
THE WEB PLANET- by Bill Strutton. More shockingly bad alien costumes. Dennis Spooner graduates to script editor. This is a mysterious but not particularly satisfying series opener. Unimpressively directed by Richard Martin. C.
THE ZARBI- Strange premise with more shockingly inept alien costumes. Here's the thing, if you don't have the budget to do something convincingly… then don't do it. Not without interest, but those sets and costumes… uggh. C-.
ESCAPE TO DANGER- I do like how the Menoptra move. Very elegant. It was Richard Martin's idea to have dancers play the Menoptra, and a great idea it was. Lacking their… grace, and performances, and strangeness I would not be writing this review. Roslyn de Winter, an Australian mime, was hired to choreograph the Menoptra's movements and speech, and also plays the central Menoptra… Vrestin. For the actress to act through all that makeup is impressive… for all the actors actually. With this episode I became interested in the serial, in spite of its constraints. B-.
CRATER OF NEEDLES- You have to give this serial points for sheer imagination. So much creativity. If I was a kid, the target audience, I would have loved this serial. It is very well written, and passionately performed. And the flying scenes, and battles are quite lovingly staged. While as an adult I could ask for better costumes, effects, sets, what they pull off is still quite impressive. The strength of Doctor Who, being the same strength of The Simpsons or any good Pixar movie, it is layered, smart writing to appeal to both adults and kids. B+.
INVASION- From a serial I almost did not finish, when I saw the first one, this has really grown on me. Beyond the questionable budget it is quite a lovely fable, and also at times quite touching, and quite dire.
THE CENTRE- All routes lead to the center, as the Doctor and his Crew and the butterfly like Menoptra battle the Animus, an eater of worlds, at the center of all things. A strong denouement, for a surprisingly good serial. B/B+.
So in summation this six part series is not, when recalled, fondly remembered by most. That said its first episode, THE WEB PLANET, originally brought in 13.5 million viewers, the most of any Doctor Who broadcast of the 60s.
Doctor Who never brought in great numbers, but it managed to be consistent, and have a passionate fan-base. Which accounts for the longevity of both the original series, and the success of the new series. If you can get past the questionable first couple episodes, and go along with the conceits, I think you'll find a serial that is surprisingly… fun. Overall grade: B/B+.

Doctor Who Season 5 Review: Steven Moffat's Reign?
Steven Moffat, on the strength of some stellar self-contained DR. WHO stories in the first four seasons of the revamped WHO series (see my Best of Doctor Who posting), was rewarded in the fifth season by being promoted to lead writer/show runner, replacing Russell T. Davies.
Russell T. Davies the heart of this new WHO, was clearly running out of things to say with the character by the 4th season, so Moffat would seem to be the perfect choice to replace him (the episode BLINK written by Moffat and directed by Hettie MacDonald being arguably the finest hour of Dr. Who done to date).
Particularly when you consider between season 4 and season 5, (specials not counted) was an almost 2 year delay, you would have thought Season 5 would have had all the kinks worked out and been a solid season… ready to… wow.
Unfortunately that is not the case.
Season 5 sporting a new Doctor, a new companion, a new look and a new lead writer, is a season I was rooting for to be great, but it just isn't. It's not even good.
I mean the first two episodes show promise, THE ELEVENTH HOUR is a good into to the new Doctor, though almost immediately the character of Amy begins to annoy me. Still overall an okay B- episode.
Next is THE BEAST BELOW which was a good episode, and was one of the only times all season I thought the character of Amy was remotely helpful/interesting. It's solid writing by Moffat that elevates this episode to a B/B+.
However, after this episode from the VICTORY OF THE DALEKS on, Amy and her boyfriend, and their whole angsty issues just like the Mickey/Rose subplot, annoyed. And the shows felt like chores to get through rather than entertainment, all the way up to the mess of a two part season finale.
And while a lot of this is the writing, a lot is the casting (There are exceptions such as the character of River Song, played by the brilliant Alex Kingston [of ER fame] , who was fantastic last season, and is even better this season. And I also quite like the character of the Bloody Queen played wonderfully by Sophie Okenedo).
The new Doctor is okay, Matt Smith is likeable enough, but his companion and her boyfriend are "turn the channel people". When I see them on the screen, I want to change the channel. That's harsh I know, unfortunately… it's not untrue.
We'll get back to that in a bit, but all this adds up to not good omens for the 5th season, because Matt Smith is filling big, and overwhelmingly liked and respected shoes in David Tennant's Doctor, and Matt won't fill those shoes on his personality/performance alone. He'll need everything working with him in this season, including the cast, the scripts the direction, all working at full steam… and unfortunately for the most part it doesn't.
And as stated one of the big hangups this season is the casting. One of the weaknesses of RTD 's reign was the horrendous writing of the character Mickey, however this was made up for by the great character of Rose and a stellar, endearing, effervescent performance by Billie Piper, and the great dynamic between her and the great actors that played the Doctor, Eccleston and Tennant. Martha, played by the wonderful Freema Agyeman was likewise a fantastically written and performed character (In fact my personal favorite of the companions).
Unfortunately the character of Amy is no Rose or Martha, she is as annoying as those characters were charming. She and her boyfriend/fiance are this season's Mickey, largely annoying characters.
Evidently BBC is skewing younger for this season of Doctor Who, a British Dawson's Creek feel, and I think that is to this season's detriment.
And on top of the irritating characters, this season suffers largely un-compelling scripts and tired plot-lines.
Example: Daleks AGAIN!??
Are you going to use them every other episode?? Come on, really?!
The Daleks have built up fleets and been destroyed seemingly half a dozen times in the last couple of seasons. It cheapens and weakens the "ultimate' enemy, for it be pulled out and dispatched like a parlor trick every other episode.
And the season seemed replete with such retreading of RTD plotlines, and "ultimate enemy" storylines. Moffet seemingly trying to outdo RTD in the universe shaking event, and for my money fails. Universe destroying event after event, becomes meaningless and boring when not used sparingly. Moffat forgetting that the intimate smaller stories is what got him the job as lead writer, that's his strength, and in this season he completely fails to play to those strengths. Epic is what RTD does, trying to follow him up with more epic, to out epic him,… was not a wise decision.
Watching the season, it was hard to believe the innovative writer behind BLINK could helm a season so lacking in innovation or interest. It felt like a redo of other/better seasons.
Season 5 did the one thing a Dr. Who season should never do… it bored me.

100g or leave offer.
just fyi, this item is useless.
T_T...i lose a great 8
u didn't lose a gb8, i'm insisting that it's not worth half as much as ur price, due to many reasons:
1.slimes are rare, lvl60+ slimes are even more rare, so slime items aren't price competitive
2.there are many items that gives more +str, which is a slime's main attribute to add (str, dmg)
3.this item has medicore stats, and dex is a useless stat because the effect of dex on a cool down time is not very noticeable
i'm posting this in the wrong place, but it might help you later on.

Best of the Best
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this is a baseball book -- and is packed with real baseball hints -- but it's also about a 12-year-old boy dealing with the disappointment and pain when his family falls apart. Josh has talent but he also works hard, listens respectfully to his coaches, and works with his team. That is what makes him a star. He has supportive friends -- including a smart, loyal girl -- who help him make sense of things. This book brushes up against some intense issues, from divorce to blackmail, but it's mostly about dedication, friendship, loyalty, and just what makes a team work.
User reviews

What's the story?
Josh is feeling pretty good since his travelling baseball team won a national tournament, especially after he's asked to play in the Little League World Series. But then he finds out his father is seeing another woman, and his parents are heading for divorce. Luckily he has baseball, and two very supportive friends -- a goofy teammate and an aspiring journalist who uses her investigative skills to help him try to unravel his father's relationship. As Josh's team works its way through the tournament, the friends encounter other problems -- they have to handle an obnoxious teammate and even uncover a scam being worked on his dad. And as Josh deals with his emotions both on the field and off, the friends help him learn to find the focus he needs.
Is it any good?
Though this is not exactly great literature, it will definitely appeal to kids who love baseball. It will also impart some gentle lessons about being honest, focusing amid distractions, and what it means to be a good friend. The dialogue amongst the friends is realistic, as are the plans they come up with to get back at a bully, destroy Josh's dad's new romance -- and save him from a scam. Even the gross-out humor is right on target for tweens. These genuine characters will make it easy for young readers to care about these three friends, and learn something from their adventures and struggles.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about the way Josh and his friends use cell phones and computers to tape conversations and examine behaviors. Jaden makes the point that recording people in public is different from recording them in private situations. When is recording OK and when does it cross the line? Do you know of kids who use their phones to embarrass other kids?
Can you think about other books or movies about baseball? Why do you think it's such a popular backdrop for stories -- and what do these stories have in common?

My Updated Nail Polish Collection
Hi guys,
At the beginning of the year I had to leave most of my nail polishes behind because I moved and I wanted to update you on which ones I took with me and which ones are new to the tribe.
Hope you like it!
Cosmic Lilac?
Hi guys,
I found this old mani on my drafts today from earlier this year and decided to go ahead and post it since I've been MIA for a really long time. (I've missed you too haha)
As base color I used Deborah Lippmann All Day Sucker from the spring collection this year. Honestly these polishes are great, application is super easy and you only need 2 coats for full coverage. The stamp is from the Moyou London Enchanted 16 plate with MDU Bones.
St. Patty's Day Nail Art
Hi guys!!
I had different plans for my St. Patrick's Day nails but most of my stamping plates are still in moving boxes (cause I'm moving again on Sunday) so I decided to go for something simple and cute like a green holo gradient using Color Club Halo Hues in Angel Kiss and Kismet (I notice a pattern there) and also I found that super cute stamp on my Moyou London Origami 10 plate. The pattern looks like shamrocks to me so it matched the theme.
For the stamp I wanted to do dark green but I didn't have any so I tried mixing MDU Black with Avocado that's why some fingers have a lighter stamp than others, not exactly what I wanted but it's still pretty (don't judge!)
Spring is here!
Happy Friday Guys!!
I recently asked on my instagram if you wanted to see a spring or St. Patrick's Day mani and you decided spring so here it is. I really worked hard on this mani cause I wanted to use this design as my new banner and I think it turned out pretty cute for spring.
The stamp is from the Cici & Sisi 31 plate from their 6th set, stamped with MDU black and colored with polishes from the Deborah Lippmann Sweets for my Sweet collection. I'm really liking the colors and since I'm obsessed with pastels they were perfect. Check it out!
Spring Flowers
Hi guys,
Today I have my first spring mani even though it's still winter but it's been warmer outside these past few days and I got the Deborah Lippmann Sweets for my Sweet collection on Valentine's so I've been dying to start painting my nails in pastel colors because they're my favorite thing ever. I really like dark colors as well and when I see them on other girls nails I think to myself that looks so good but I don't like taking them off cause they can stain your cuticles and be a mess and I'm just lazy for clean ups, lets be honest.
Enough rambling, on to the mani... The base color is DL Candy Girl which is a pale pink with violet undertones, some pics might not look it but there's really more purple than red in there, application was easy, just 2 coats. For the flowers I used the same stamp twice, first with MDU Barbie and then with MDU Fantasy. Stamping plate is Moyou London The Pro 06.
Orange and Pink Hearts Mani
Hi guys!!
I hope you had a great Valentine's Day, I didn't have big plans, my hubby and I don't take this holiday too seriously so we went out to explore Atlanta and get something to eat. I painted my nails with something simple for the ocasion cause I really wanted to use orange polish for some reason and I ended up with light pink hearts :)
The base color I used is Butter London Silly Billy (gotta love that name) and stamped with my Gogo only plate and MDU Light Pink. I really liked the combination, it's valentine's day related but it also feels like a spring mani and I'm so ready for pastels and brighter colors.
Valentine's Mandala
Hi guys,
I've been wearing this mani for almost a week (that's definitely a record for me) and I took pictures days ago but haven't gotten around to post anything, so before Valentine's Day is over here you have my second design of the holiday.
For this mani I just did a 3 colored gradient using Nubar Pink Lily, Butter London Cake Hole and OPI Coca Cola Red sponged over Wet n Wild White. For the stamp I used MDU Black and Moyou London Mandalas 04 plate. I know mandalas are not valentine's "themed" but there are some hearts in there :)
Pink Hearts
Hi guys
I'm back after a hectic January, I basically moved out of my apartment, sold all my stuff and moved to Atlanta, Georgia with my husband. I managed to take some of my polishes and plates with me so I won't have naked nails forever and I'm really excited to start building my nail polish collection again.
For today's mani I used Butter London Black Knight as a base cause I wanted something different, not your typical white and pink color scheme, I stamped the hearts with MDU Barbie and Moyou London Pro XL 08 plate. I filled out the bigger hearts using a small dotting tool and Butter London Cake Hole. Check it out!
New Year's Ball Drop
Hi guys!
My last mani of the year is inspired by the Ball Drop of New York City, I've never been there but I've watched it on TV and it's always such a beautiful, bright thing that I just thought it would be perfect for the occasion.
The black pattern is from the Bundle Monster BM 21 plate stamped with MDU Black and colored with Color Club HAlo Hues Shades. For the glittery fingers I used a black base and Kleancolor Midnight Seduction.
Hi guys,
I have another New Year's mani today, I tried a million different options for fireworks stamps and none of them looked good enough so I decided to keep it simple cause I was getting frustrated and couldn't make it work.
I pulled this beauty from my stash called Lady of the Lake by AEngland cause of the awesome holo sparkle it gives out, and added a simple gold starry stamp from the Moyou London Festive 06 plate and with China Glaze Passion that I mixed with some Kleancolor Metallic Red to give it a little extra color like fireworks have. It's not the best design but I think it can work out if you don't have time to do a full on, out of this world mani.
What do you think?

This review is from: ASUS P8B WS LGA 1155 Intel C206 ATX Intel Xeon E3 Server/Workstation Motherboard
Pros: Configuration of this board was to be in best interest of company usage.
Cons: Well system is configured with 16gb of ram win server 2011 standard 2 raid 1 configurations. The issue is that 1 drive keeps dropping from controller on both raid volumes at different times. At first it sounded like bad hard drive or sata cable but drives and sata cables have been verified and tested fine with seagate tools as well as acronis drive monitor. Running 750 watt power supply which is more then minimum recommendations as specified by several power consumption tests. now after powering down server reseating cables to HDD the missing drive comes back to life with a raid rebuild. Now my natural concerns are one day a total system failure on controller and having employee downtime for a restore of data
Other Thoughts: As per Asus there recommendations
1. replace power supply -
2. replace sata cables
3. update BIOS (on version 0704 - dated 7/25/11)
well after doing first 2 options the 3rd option seems easy enough as i have done literally hundreds of BIOS mb flashes dating back to the 486 boards and reading reviews how the BIOS update crashed the board - this is in no way an option for a production server and to spend 3k on a new identical test lab server is all but out of the question. Any other options would be recommended outside a BIOS update and SATA driver uninstall and reinstall.

Liverpool boss: we have to quit Anfield
Too many hurdles force reds to seek a new home
Published 11/07/2011
Liverpool have provided a graphic insight into their mounting frustrations with the local council bureaucracy which they believe is destroying their hopes of staying at their spiritual Anfield home.
After the club's principal owner John W Henry hinted at suspicions over the transparency of Manchester City's £400m sponsorship deal with Etihad, Liverpool managing director Ian Ayre yesterday publicly lamented the "barriers to our ambition" being created by a host of logistical planning issues relating to a refurbished Anfield.
And he admitted that a departure to a new purpose-built stadium in nearby Stanley Park — which is dependent on Liverpool securing a naming rights deal of their own — is now the most likely outcome for the club.
Of City's deal with Etihad, the Abu Dhabi airline which is investing up to £40m a year for a decade despite being loss-making for its seven years of operation, Henry tweeted to a fan: "How much was the losing bid?"
City insist that Etihad, owned by the Abu Dhabi royal family, is not being used as a vehicle to artificially inflate the club's balance sheet to enable the club's Abu Dhabi owner to comply with the imminent Uefa Financial Fair Play rules — despite Etihad paying out a world-record sum, having failed to make a profit in its seven years of existence.
Though Ayre's statement was issued in conjunction with the council, it served only to reveal the very definitive divide between the two.
He cited problems with "land/property acquisition, environmental and statutory issues".
The cheaper option of extending Anfield entails dealing with the problem of buying and demolishing nearby properties behind the Main Stand and also paying out money in a number of other ways — under what is known as a Section 106 agreement — to make an application for the expansion of the site acceptable.
Liverpool's Section 106 agreement includes paying for a programme of community involvement of up to £700,000.
The necessary local infrastructure improvements required of Liverpool could take up to four years to complete and, since the club will generate around £1.7m per home game next season, while Manchester United, for example, bank £3.6m, they simply cannot afford to stand still.
Liverpool's current stadium is the sixth-largest in the Premier League in terms of capacity, significantly behind United, Arsenal and Newcastle's stadia but also smaller than Manchester City and Sunderland's grounds.
Stand closures and a heavily reduced capacity for games would also be necessary during any rebuild.
The city council have granted Liverpool a three-month extension to decide on whether to take up the option of a 999-year lease on the Stanley Park site, though councillors are losing patience with the club's years of prevarication over the new stadium idea and will probably allow Fenway Sports Group only until late September to make a decision.
Construction costs which prevented the Stanley Park option in the Hicks/Gillett era have fallen, reducing the costs and also make a new-build stadium a more commercially viable option — below £300m.
It is Henry's desire to replicate his sympathetic restoration of Fenway Park, the home of his Boston Red Sox.
Though shirt sponsor Standard Chartered have expressed an interest in a stadium naming rights deal, it will not be on the same scale as City's.

Several tribal members expressed their growing concern over the megaload issue.
The Nez Perce Tribe gathers twice a year for three days straight to discuss natural resources, debate resolutions, and talk about the issues affecting the tribe. However one issue that's dominating the conversation this year is megaloads and the ongoing litigation between the tribe and United States Forest Service.
"I don't think our leaders knew what was in us, what was in our hearts to show up every night and not give up and to continue and continue and continue," said Rebecca Miles.
August 5th 2013 was the first of several megaload protests along Highway 12, and the emotions still raw to this day.
"Our Nimmipu women we go everywhere with our babies," said Mary Jane Oatman. "We don't leave them behind, their right there with us. It was our papaya it was our babies that kept us from getting pepper sprayed that night
That first stance on the highway prompted a series of events afterward. The first being a lawsuit against the United States Forest Service.
"I was very glad to sit there with you and hear the testimony and the declaration," said Erik Holt. "And the response from Judge Winmill and to hear what he says."
The federal judge ruled to temporarily block the big rigs until an impact study is done on the scenic corridor. However many feel that decision only buys time.
"They're going to plug in to the minimum requirements to get the megaloads to go by us again," said Holt. "It's just a study, a time-frame and a loophole."
The tribe strategy for moving forward and handling the newly filed appeal to the judges ruling was discussed in executive session.

The Boys Who Loved Birds
"In this area you should go just behind me," the stout man says, the th of his this buzzing like a bee. Then, as if to reassure me, he adds, "I've been here before, with other colleagues and journalists, and no one died." I've traveled here, to the former Iron Curtain, still studded with the occasional land mine, in pursuit of a love story. It's an improbable tale about two boys, a friendship, and a passion for birds. Twenty-five years earlier, in 1989, the man in front of me had hatched a plan to transform the former no-man's land that separated Western Europe from the Eastern Bloc into an eco-corridor running through the heart of Europe. It was a preposterous idea. The Iron Curtain had been just that—a series of steel-reinforced barriers. Electrified fences, razor wire, land mines, trip lines, and machine guns: If it could stop, maim, or kill you, the Soviets put it there. Not exactly "eco."

A simple, beautiful solution to clearing landmines in Afghanistan. From the public filmmaker competition section of Focus Forward, a series of documentaries about people who are changing the world.
World Citizen
The Groundbreaking Japanese Electronic band, Yellow Magic Orchestra, has been mentioned on the Blue before, and, not too long ago, the band's most famous album, Solid State Survivor, was noticed as something every science fiction fan should listen to(#98 on list). But if one really wants forward looking and innovative it is worth taking a closer look at the career of YMO's most prolific member, Ryuichi Sakamoto. [more inside]
HeroRATs Clear Landmines
Unexploded landmines still remain a huge problem the world over. What is more, landmine clearance is an expensive business. One man has found a potential solution, however. All hail the HeroRAT.
The Mine Whisperer.
As a child soldier in Cambodia's notorious Khmer Rouge army Aki Ra laid many landmines. He now clears these deadly bombs with a stick and a pocketknife, more than 10,000 to date. It is very dangerous. No one pays him to do it. Aki is the real deal.

Miss Landmine: We are currently preparing the live Miss Landmine Angola 2008 pageant in close collaboration with the Angolan government (CNIDAH) and supported by the European Union. The crowning of the world's first Miss Landmine will be taking place in Luanda, Angola on April 4th, 2008, the UN International Day for Mine Awareness and Assistance in Mine Action. Stay tuned! The web voting for Miss Landmine Angola is open until April 3, 2008. [more inside]

Cluster Bombs, landmines and bombhunters
While the world debates the use of cluster bombs due to their impact on civilians in post conflict areas, today is also Landmine Awareness Day in Cambodia. Some ignore the warnings and seek out the landmines to defuse and sell... while others seek a much larger quarry (Youtube)
damn hippies
bomb sniffing flowers. Danish, Canadian and U.S. scientists are closing in on a genetically engineered plant that will send up a floral signal: "DANGER—land mines below." Scientists in Denmark have been tinkering with Arabidopsis thaliana [...] to produce a plant [that] will turn a warning red whenever close to a land mine." Arabidopsis can be genetically sensitized to the nitrogen-dioxide (NO2) that leaches from buried explosives.
WMD's Dumped By Army Off U.S. Coasts
Decades of dumping chemical arms leave a risky legacy The Army now admits that it secretly dumped 64 million pounds of nerve and mustard agents into the sea, along with 400,000 chemical-filled bombs, land mines and rockets and more than 500 tons of radioactive waste - either tossed overboard or packed into the holds of scuttled vessels. These weapons of mass destruction virtually ring the country, concealed off at least 11 states - six on the East Coast, two on the Gulf Coast, California, Hawaii and Alaska. Few, if any, state officials have been informed of their existence.
Rats are being trained to detect buried land mines in Africa. Giant African pouched rats! Mine-detecting is definitely not a suicide mission, the rats are trained with care and attention and are expected to give about eight years of service. They can also detect tuberculosis. And so cute! Here's a page on keeping them as pets (but you'd need a spare room and a nocturnal lifestyle.)
Willard appointed assault commander
According to UPI, the United States has been offered by coalition partner Morocco its tide-turning force of 2,000 monkeys trained to detonate land mines. It wouldn't be so unbelievable if the U.S. wasn't already training dolphins and sea lions to do the same. Considering the carnage already happening to humans in Iraq, this news doesn't inspire thoughts of happy endings for our animal friends.
The Self-Healing Minefield
The Self-Healing Minefield From the current Village Voice: "Utilizing commercial off-the-shelf computer chips and 'healing' software, the networked minefield detects rude attempts to clear it, deduces which parts of itself have been removed, and signals its remaining munitions to close the hole using best-fit mathematics."

Animals thought extinct found in remote Cambodian jungle:
Animals thought extinct found in remote Cambodian jungle: British scientists have found a wilderness in the Cardamom region of Cambodia where exotic species, some though to be extinct, have been found. These include the Siamese crocodile, the wolf snake (a new species so named because of its dog-like fangs), large populations of tigers and Asian elephants, and the gower, a forest cow. Ironically, the habitat was protected from significant human intrusion because it was a longtime Khmer Rouge stronghold and also because routes lead to and from it are landmined.

So easy and delicious! We really enjoyed this treat. The honey adds a nice hint of sweetness that doesn't overwhelm. I used fresh blackberries and strawberries. Thanks for sharing!
Yummy! Definitely 2 big servings! I used mostly fresh blueberries, two big fresh strawberries and 2 % yogurt. Had this as part of breakfast with DD (toddler). We both loved it and it made me think of Summer time. I would make this again with a better blender as mine doesn't make a smoothie too smooth. Made for India -- More Than Just Curries Tag Game -- March 2010.
What a great tasting drink. For my mix of berries, I used frozen raspberries and cherries. I did nuke em for a minute to make it easier for blending. Also added in 1/2 packet of splenda for just a touch more sweetness. Lovely lovely drink. Made for my Veg-n-Swap partner~
