Avalon Theatre looks to future with auction of vintage gear
Bay View residents may be having dinner and a movie flanked by gaudy vaudeville architecture and twinkling lights on the ceiling of the historic Avalon Theatre by Thanksgiving, said Lee Barczak, the Avalon's owner, at a news conference Friday.
An online auction of vintage theater items this week, including a wall-sized hand-painted Spanish mural and original seating from the theater's vaudeville days, is paving the way for $2 million in renovations, Barczak said. The renovations will transform the space, which at one time had a seating permit for up to 2,300 people, into two modern theaters with 240 and 80 seats, respectively, and in-theater dinner and bar service, while leaving vaudevillian facades of the original Avalon intact. Renovations could start in a month and a half after bids are finalized and awarded. A rendering could be ready in two months. »Read Full Article(8)

Best way to invest money?
Explore the benefits of Bank On Yourself…
The ways that Bank on Yourself can be used to improve your life are almost without number. Here are just a few, as featured in Pamela Yellen's best-selling book, Bank On Yourself: The Life-Changing Secret to Growing and Protecting Your Financial Future:
- Have a Secure, Enjoyable Retirement without worrying about market fluctuations (or crashes)
- Finance Business and Professional Expenses and recapture the cost of these items and the interest you now pay to financial institutions
- What's "Better than Debt Free?" Reduce your debt while you increase your savings
- Create an Emergency Fund for peace of mind
- Build a College Fund without going broke
When you compare Bank on Yourself to many traditional savings and investment methods, you'll discover some key differences.
Is it necessary to risk your money in order to grow it?
That's what the conventional wisdom would have us believe. And the Wall Street "gurus" keep insisting that if you just hang in there, you'll come out ahead.
However, several recent studies have revealed some startling facts that Wall Street and your stockbroker are praying you don't discover:
|The typical equity investor has only earned 3.49% annually for the past 20 years, beating inflation for that period by less than 1% a year! Asset allocation and fixed income investors actually lost ground when factoring in inflation (Source: DALBAR 2012 Quantitative Analysis of Investor Behavior)
|For the past forty years, ordinary long-term treasury bonds have outpaced investing in the stock market, which means the only "rewards" investors have received for taking the extra risk of stocks and equity mutual funds are sleepless nights and broken retirement dreams (Source: "Bonds Why Bother?" Journal of Indexes, May/June 2009 Issue)
|The annual returns touted in mutual fund prospectuses are nothing more than smoke and mirrors. It's possible to invest $50,000, for example, and get a 25% "average annual return" on your money every year for ten or twenty years… and end up with only the $50,000 you started with! See the proof here.
|Four out of five mutual funds and investment advisory services underperform the overall market over the long term (Source: The Hulbert Financial Digest, July 2009 cover article)
|Wall Street lost more than 45% of the typical investor's money – TWICE – over the past decade! As a result, the majority of pre-retirees have been forced to delay retirement by an average of five years! (Source: March 2011 study conducted by The Blackstone Group)
What more proof do we need that the system is broken?
And we challenge you to give us one single shred of evidence that the system has been fixed!
Bypass Wall Street altogether!
Bank On Yourself lets you bypass Wall Street and Banks and grow your money safely and predictably – even when markets tumble.
Bank On Yourself-type policies grow your money up to 40 times faster than the policies Suze Orman, Dave Ramsey and others talk about.
Bank On Yourself is a proven alternative that can let you take back control of your financial future.
Bank on Yourself can offer more assurances of safety and growth than conventional investments.
No traditional investments – including stocks, mutual funds, real estate, gold and other commodities, options and currency – have any guarantees of growth or safety.
The policies used for the Bank on Yourself concept grow every year by a contractually guaranteed and predictable amount, and neither your principal nor your gains are lost when the market tumbles.
You can have peace of mind for retirement planning, because you can know the minimum guaranteed value of your policy in any year and the minimum guaranteed annual income you could take from it.
No two policies are alike, however. To find out what your bottom line numbers and results could be if you added Bank On Yourself to your financial plan, request a free, no-obligation Analysis.
If you haven't already started to Bank On Yourself, please take the first step today and take back control of your financial future!
Life insurance enjoys a multi-layer safety net…
A traditional whole life policy has four layers of protection:
|Life insurance companies are audited regularly by the state insurance commissioners office (sometimes by dozens of states) to ensure they maintain sufficient reserves in order to pay all claims and are on solid financial ground. (Even in the case of AIG, according to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, their insurance subsidiaries "did not receive a bailout; they are financially solvent," and has stated that AIG's insurance subsidiaries did not cause the problem [the non-insurance operations of the the company did] and will, in fact, be part of the solution.)
|If an insurance company gets into financial difficulty, or fails to maintain proper reserves, the state insurance commissioners office can step in and take over the company and run it in the interest of the policy holders. Usually a failed insurer's business is then taken over by another insurance company.
|Most life insurance companies are audited annually by a number of independent insurance rating companies, state agencies, and/or public accounting firms. According to these services, the companies preferred by Bank on Yourself Advisors are among the financially strongest and best capitalized life insurance groups in the world.
|Additional policy owner protections may be available on a state-by-state basis. Please check with a qualified professional to determine what protections apply in your state.
The policies recommended by Bank on Yourself Advisors also provide a fifth layer of protection:
The concept uses companies that are in essence owned by policy owners, rather than stockholders/investors, which allows the insurance company to focus on the long- term interests of policy holders instead of the short-term demands of Wall Street.
The insurance companies preferred by Bank On Yourself Advisors invest very safely and securely to ensure they can deliver on their promises to policyowners, just as they have done for over 100 years.
Still skeptical? We invite you to compare your best saving or investing strategy against the 18 key advantages and guarantees of Bank On Yourself. Bank on Yourself founder Pamela Yellen has a standing offer to pay $100,000 to the first person who can match or beat it.
If you want to find out how adding Bank On Yourself to your financial plan can impact your financial situation, all you need to do is fill out a simple Analysis Request Form and you'll be put in touch with one of only 200 advisors in the country who have met the rigorous requirements to be a Bank On Yourself Authorized Advisor.
Wondering where you'll find the money to start To Bank On Yourself? There are at least eight ways to do this, so don't rule yourself out for that reason. the Bank On Yourself Advisors are masters at helping you restructure your finances to free up seed money to fund a plan to help you reach your goals and dreams in the shortest time possible.
NOTE: The Bank On Yourself system uses generally available whole life policies and riders. The information presented here is for educational purposes only and is not a solicitation for the purchase of any insurance or financial product.

After the film it often happens that you emerge from the darkness of the cinema into the well-lit world of everyday life and quickly wipe a tear or two from your eye. These are the tell-tale signs of your having been moved, signs not meant for the light of day. Nach dem Film hopes to conserve this moment in its 4th issue by placing it under the scrutiny of a flashbulb, producing a still image of sorts, in order to ask what tears have to do with cinema?
We encourage submissions that consider the role of tears in film and media, including both the production of, the techniques used to produce tears, a cultural history of tears, a theory of tears. We hope to include, but are by no means restricted to, the following areas:
Tears in film and other media are of course key and are divided into issues which touch on the historical, the formal and issues pertaining to reception.
Are there classics in the cinema of tears? What impact did the conversion to sound cinema have on the depiction of tears? The historical function of tears: did the melodramas of the 1940s displace the tensions of the Second World War onto the cinema in order to produce a release valve of sorts?
Stars known for their ability to cry in the theatre of the 19th century.
Are there media that preclude tears? (the hypertext, the computer, the white cube of the gallery)? Is the melodrama, as a tear-oriented genre, a form expressly for women?
The situation of the cinema: darkness and intimacy create an environment that allows for the production of tears. Representations of tears: how does one judge if it is sufficient to produce tears? Who does one actually cry for in the cinema? What is the relationship between intimacy and anonymity in the experience of shared catharsis provided by the cinema? The clouding of vision that occurs due to tears as an indication of the passive role of the eye in perception and the production of tears. Tears as a mark of a physical "dissolution" within the spectator (suggesting a liquid state) and the contrast between the muscular tension invoked by the action or suspense film (a solid) and the gaseous quality of laughter. Is the production of tears symptomatic of the "female gaze"? Crying is a passing experience, perceived as an event (following Gertrud Koch). How is it possible that one may cry repeatedly when one sees a given film many times? What is it that one relives?
A particularly important aspect of cinematic tears is the manner in which they are produced:
How do actors produce tears? How important is it that tears are authentically produced and not artificial? Are there acting methodologies that insist on authenticity? Which artificial substances aid the production of tears such as Belladonna, onions, etc.? How are tears included in the mise-en-scčne. To what extent are they dependent on the close-up? Is there (following Deleuze) a technique of montage geared to tears? Is there a dramaturgical recipe for tears?
We are not restricted to film, however, and are as interested in a cultural history of tears:
Why are tears codified as feminine within the binary paradigm? What is the relationship between tears and individuals (following Luhmann or Barthes)? How is it that tears are per se authentic and signify emotion? The definition of public space in which tears may flow (e.g. the cinema, the church, the cemetery, the pop concert, the soccer field, the talk show). Tears are not cool: tears and social status. Crying is private, intimate, one is ashamed to cry in front of others. Why is crying not contagious, when laughing, yawning and coughing in public is? At which point may one cry: tears as a demonstration of control over affect. Tears in the history of other media beyond the cinema (eg. Within the domestic novel). The value of tears in cinema or in therapy: as a sign that one has gotten one's money's worth. The theology of tears: the purging function of tears, tears as catharsis.
And finally a theory of tears, which is still in its infancy, and therefore last but not least:
A topology of tears: where does one cry, how does one cry and on which occasion (tears of joy, tears of sadness). Somatic of tears: the economy of a bodily fluid. Are tears ideological in nature? Psychoanalysis and tears: crying in therapy, the consideration of tears by psychoanalytical theory
We invite all those interested in contributing to issue number 4 of Nach dem Film to forward material to us by April 15th 2002 at: email@example.com
Submissions may include images and other multimedia material.

Piece of history returned to Oklahoma veteran
Dog tags lost 70 years ago
Published 8:11 AM CST Jan 31, 2013
An Oklahoma veteran has been reunited with a piece of history he lost decades ago.
Alvin Krumrey, 92, lost his dog tags while he was stationed on an island in the Pacific. He said he still remembers the day he lost the precious tags nearly 70 years ago when a flash flood nearly took his life.
"I can't swim a lick," said Krumrey. "So I just bounced down the river for a half mile. I guess I came out on the right side."
An Australian family visiting the island where Krumrey was stationed found his dog tags. They worked hard to find him and on Wednesday Krumrey was reunited with the long lost tags.

By Lu Yu
Reprinted with permission from the May 2016 issue of APS News, copyright American Physical Society
A half-century ago, modern condensed matter physics was almost nonexistent in China. During the past 30 years, especially since the beginning of the 21st century, the situation has changed dramatically. A number of outstanding young physicists from China with cutting-edge research achievements now have global recognition. How did this transition occur?
I was one of about 8000 Chinese scientists trained in the former Soviet Union for Diploma or Ph.D. degrees in the late 1950s and early 1960s. After returning to China, I was appointed a group leader at the Institute of Physics (IoP), the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), even though I did not have a Ph.D. The lack of experience and scientific exchange was partially made up by intensive self- and mutual education. A group of almost starving young people passionately studied and disputed the latest results in the literature (fortunately, scientific journals were available at IoP).
Unfortunately, that joyful time did not last long. In 1966 the Cultural Revolution broke out in China, and normal research and education activities were almost completely stopped. In 1969, I was sent to the countryside to do manual labor, to be "re-educated" by farmers. Research work was out of question under those conditions.
Nevertheless, something magical happened after I returned from the countryside in 1971 — "Ping-Pong Diplomacy." Here, the exchange of table tennis (ping-pong) players between the United States and People's Republic of China (PRC) in the early 1970s marked a thaw in Sino-American relations that paved the way to a visit to Beijing by President Richard Nixon. Following the 'Ping-Pong' Diplomacy, China slowly started to open up to the West. C.N. Yang, T.D. Lee, and other American scientists of Chinese descent visited mainland China and gave lectures. We intellectuals "smelled" renewed opportunity to do research work again. There was no direct scientific exchange between the U.S. and China, but China was able to send a small delegation to attend the annual meeting of the Canadian Association of Physicists.

About Our Organization
The International Premium Cigar & Pipe Retailers Association (IPCPR) is the oldest, largest and most active trade association representing and assisting premium retail tobacconists and their suppliers. IPCPR is a not-for-profit trade association organized as the advocate for the independent retail tobacconist and recognized as the
"Voice of Authority and Reason"
on premium tobacco related issues. IPCPR provides its members with assistance to fight draconian and onerous tobacco legislation, and brings retailers and manufacturers together in mutually advantageous business relationships. In February, 2016, IPCPR opened its new headquarters a few blocks from the United States Capitol at: 513 Capitol Courts, Suite 300, Washington, DC 20002.
Founded in 1933, IPCPR (formerly RTDA):
Provides its members with assistance to fight repressive and onerous tobacco legislation at all levels.
Acts as the conduit to bring manufacturers and retailers together in mutually advantageous business relations.
Makes available for its members information on resources, market data, research, services and product information which will help in the profitable operations of their businesses.
Legislative Activities
We track the constantly changing legislation that may have an impact on our members.
We provide current legislative information through our Legislative Action Center
We partner with other powerful industry trade associations to proactively address legislative issues with a clear, consistent and convincing voice.
We convene members in individual states to help them develop effective strategies for legislative action - as a group or as individual business owners and taxpayers.
We provide the vital information, tools and techniques that tobacconists need to successfully work with - and influence - their state and local legislators, including industry statistics, correspondence, petitions and talking points for testimony.
We distribute legislative updates and calls to action so our members can immediately respond to the legislation that affects their businesses.
Products and Discounts
The IPCPR Annual Convention & International Trade Show is the retail tobacconist's most important event of the year - a four day extravaganza featuring the industry's largest trade show - and only open to IPCPR members.
The IPCPR Retailer's Almanac is considered the "bible" of the tobacco industry, with over 400+ pages of product listings, ads and information on cigars, premium cigarettes, pipes, tobaccos, lighters, gift items and merchant services. The Almanac is indexed by supplier - including address and telephone numbers - as well as by product brand name and category and is only available to IPCPR members. It is now also available in its full version online to IPCPR members at the IPCPR website.
News and Information
Members receive complimentary subscriptions to Tobacconist and Smokeshop Magazines, two premier publications for the premium tobacconist industry.
The quarterly member newsletter, the IPCPR Report, is filled with association and industry news, statistics and updates from throughout the industry.
The members-only section of the IPCPR website is constantly updated with news and developments from all segments of the industry.
Marketing Information
The Find a Tobacconist feature on the IPCPR website allows consumers to easily find a quality tobacco retailer. Searchable by name, city/town, location (state) and zip code, it also allows direct links to your website, so keeping us informed of any changes to your email and your web address is very important.

This review is from: Dell Professional P2714H Black 27" 8ms (GTG) Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor IPS 300 cd/m2 DCR 2,000,000:1 (1000:1)
Pros: Device came well packed, it would have survived rough treatment by shipper. Very easy to install, the stand just snapped in place without tools.
Excellent picture quality, I am using the Multimedia preset mode without further customization. Otherwise no customization, I did not install the software.
The pixels are about as noticeable as on my previous (23.6 inch) monitor.
Cons: None I can see.
Other Thoughts: Comes with display port and VGA cables. No DVI cable, I cannot put that down as a con since the product description said so.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: LG 32LN5300 32" Class 1080p 60Hz LED HDTV
Pros: Very good picture, standard color somewhat on the cool side, which I like. The screen can be watched from wide angles, almost like an IPS panel. The speakers are loud and clear, at least for voice, which I care about. Works well as TV set and PC monitor.
Cons: The HDMI connection to a PC produces overscan, unusual for flat panel screens. It was easily corrected using the Intel HD3000 control panel by adjusting the aspect ratios. Cinema mode also corrects it, but it changes the color temperature. I gave it 5 eggs since I could easily correct the overscan.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Rosewill METAS Rigid Aluminum Body and ABS plastic top cover 3.5" Black / Silver SATA I/II USB 3.0 & eSATA External Enclosure
Pros: Has fan to cool hard drive. Fan speed adjustable to low noise level, it appears the hard drive itself is noisier than the fan at low speed. Enclosure looks fairly good, it doesn't look out of place on my desk. Operation with e-sata works fine. Windows 7 Pro and Ubuntu 12.04 are functional. I am using a 3TB Toshiba disk.
Cons: USB 3 connection is not consistently recognized. I tried it with 2 PCs, Windows 7 Pro and Ubuntu 12.04. It recognizes a 2105 device, but the disk is not always useable.
With e-sata the blue light is permanently on, not flashing when disk is doing I/O (with USB, when it works, the blue LED flashes when there is disk activity).
Considering the price of the unit, a RMA is not cost effective. In particular since e-sata is working satisfactorily.

The Melodeon Tutor (Book, DVD and CD) by Ed Rennie
Starting from absolute beginners the step by step approach takes you through the mysteries of playing the D/G melodeon all the way to advanced techniques playing in C major and A Major.
There is no need to be able to read music with this book as Ed has devised a unique numbering system to get you playing from the start. It's also handy for explaining the more complicated fingering patterns. Many who have been taught by Ed have inadvertently learned how to read music as a by-product of this system!
This 54 page book comes with a 42 track CD, so you can hear what things are supposed to sound like. It also comes with a DVD of 30 video clips with right and left hand techniques shown in close up. Sometimes the written word just isn't enough.

This Melodeon sounds great, has only some very superficial scratches to the Cherry wood casing and comes complete with the original lined case. A slight modification was made at the time of purchase, namely that a hand carved button was installed in place of the existing air button in order to make the system a little more comfortable for the left hand thumb. The original button is in the case and can be very simply re-installed.
I am no Melodeon player (professional guitarist instead), I had envisaged learning but have not had time to really get to grips with the instrument in any meaningful way, would love to hang on to this instrument but it is too good to be kept as an ornament!
Currently these boxes are retailing at around £1800, this box is nearly mint so I'm asking for £1350 or near offer. I'm based in South East London, very happy to arrange viewing and chance to try out. Will organise delivery etc by agreement.
Contact Chris on 07861 214723 or email me at firstname.lastname@example.com (July 2014)
FOR SALE: Hello folks, Tim Edey here. I have a few boxes these days after many years of collecting varied ones that I have used to tour and record with. A Castagnari Dinn ii which was purchased new in year circa 1999 and dry tuned and in B/C tuning, very well used+played in, however great sounding and with plenty of life for a a beginner or pro alike in it yet. It comes with the original Castagnari case and I am selling because; 1. I never play it, 2. I now play a 3 row box and find the Dinn too small for my liking.
Bad points and I am totally honest with these; it needs a bass reed fixing (simple job id think as just one reed not sounding), left hand strap metal lower bracket went years ago during a concert and I just have tied it with strong string but you could easily get a proper clip/bracket done, it has usual wear n tear from an instrument that has been used on the road+in planes, trains etc few scratches, couple of hairline cracks that were professionally repaired but as I say does play great, sounds cool and is a lot less than buying a new one:)
I would be looking for around £1,400 (or best offer) and you can collect in person in Perth, Scotland or I can post in the UK for an extra £25 and elsewhere for little bit more I suspect. I have made a short video of the box and you can see that here so you can see it and hear it. My best wishes Tim:)
email or facebook me for more info; email@example.com
Wanted - Castagnari Hascy in BC. New or second hand. email@example.com (Oct 2013).

"Since the stash the UN was looking for was small enough to be hidden in MY APARTMENT"
We have a winner!
There was even some talk that the WMD was trucked to Iran or Syria.
And of course it could have been dumped into a river someplace..
It isn't an 'token' piece. The LA Times debunked Clinton's 'genocide' accusations during bombing of Serbia, and if you search the Free Republic archives, you'll find at least half a dozen times over the past two years that FReepers have given the 'hell freezes over' reaction to the LA Times being right about something. Much more frequent than for any other MSM outlet.

Murdoch is a very smart man. (And, yes: he pays me for my Sunday column.)
In a unique, home-spun experiment, researchers found that centripetal force could help people pass kidney stones—before they become a serious health-care cost.
East Lansing, Michigan, becomes a ghost town during spring break. Families head south, often to the theme parks in Orlando. A week later, the Midwesterners return sunburned and bereft of disposable income, and, urological surgeon David Wartinger noticed, some also come home with fewer kidney stones.
Wartinger is a professor emeritus at Michigan State, where he has dealt for decades with the scourge of kidney stones, which affect around one in 10 people at some point in life. Most are small, and they pass through us without issue. But many linger in our kidneys and grow, sending hundreds of thousands of people to emergency rooms and costing around $3.8 billion every year in treatment and extraction. The pain of passing a larger stone is often compared to child birth.
Americans tend to elect presidents who have a sense of humor. This is not good news for the Republican nominee.
Humor showed Clinton to be as self-aware as she was serious, and served to isolate Trump, making him seem like an angry spider caught in a tangled dystopia of his own construction.
Programs that should be crafted around people's needs are instead designed to deal with a problem that doesn't exist.
At a campaign rally in 1976, Ronald Reagan introduced the welfare queen into the public conversation about poverty: "She used 80 names, 30 addresses, 15 telephone numbers to collect food stamps, Social Security, veterans' benefits for four nonexistent deceased veteran husbands, as well as welfare. Her tax-free cash income alone has been running $150,000 a year."
The perception of who benefits from a policy is of material consequence to how it is designed. For the past 40 years, U.S. welfare policy has been designed around Reagan's mythical welfare queen—with very real consequences for actual families in need of support.
Though it was Reagan who gave her the most salient identity, the welfare queen emerged from a long and deeply racialized history of suspicion of and resentment toward families receiving welfare in the United States. Today, 20 years after welfare reform was enacted, this narrative continues to inform policy design by dictating who is "deserving" of support and under what conditions. Ending the reign of the welfare queen over public policy means recognizing this lineage, identifying how these stereotypes continue to manifest, and reorienting policy design around families as they are—not who they are perceived to be.
Conservatives have put families and communities at the center of their conception of a better America—but they're notably absent from the Republican nominee's account.
Again and again at Monday night's debate, Hillary Clinton attacked Donald Trump's record in business. She accused him of caring only about himself. Again and again, he pleaded guilty.
When Clinton quoted Trump as cheering for a housing crisis, Trump responded, "That's called business." When Clinton accused Trump of not paying taxes, Trump answered, "That makes me smart." When Clinton attacked Trump for declaring bankruptcy to avoid paying the people he owed, Trump replied, "I take advantage of the laws of the nation because I'm running a company." Clinton set out to paint Trump as selfish and unethical. Trump basically conceded the charge.
Commentators are declaring Trump's answers a tactical mistake. But they're more than that. They show how unmoored he is from conservatism's conception of America.
The potential first daughter has a knack for political diplomacy her father lacks.
It's no secret that Paul Ryan and Donald Trump are not besties. The Republican presidential pick has little use for the Speaker's wonky, establishment ways. Ryan, meanwhile, increasingly looks as though he feels about Trump the way most Americans feel about Anthony Weiner: Please, God, just make him go away!
Practically speaking, however, it simply won't do to have the top-ranked GOP officer holder completely out of touch with his party's nominee. The optics are terrible, and there's nothing the political media enjoy quite like stories about internecine unpleasantness.
Under such ticklish conditions, there was really only one way for the two men to bridge this gulf without losing face: Bring in Ivanka.
Between disaffected Republicans and energized Latinos, all of 2016's cross-currents have conspired to make this formerly red state one of the cycle's most contested targets.
PHOENIX—The Latino activists here are working their hearts out to change this red state's political complexion. But when I bring up Hillary Clinton, Marisa Franco shakes her head.
"People don't like Hillary," Franco says with a narrow-eyed frown. The cofounder of a grassroots group called Mijente, Franco has a militant attitude and a head of black ringlets. Along with two other young Latina activists, we're chatting over tacos at a counter-service joint a few miles from downtown.
Arizona might—might—be a swing state this year, thanks in part to activists like these. But they want to make sure I understand that their work is not testament to any positive feelings toward the Democratic candidate. President Obama represents "broken promises," and Clinton would be "no change," says Alejandra Gomez, who works for a group called People United for Justice.
For decades, the candidate has willfully inflicted pain and humiliation.
Donald J. Trump has a cruel streak. He willfully causes pain and distress to others. And he repeats this public behavior so frequently that it's fair to call it a character trait. Any single example would be off-putting but forgivable. Being shown many examples across many years should make any decent person recoil in disgust.
Judge for yourself if these examples qualify.
* * *
In national politics, harsh attacks are to be expected. I certainly don't fault Trump for calling Hillary Clinton dishonest, or wrongheaded, or possessed of bad judgment, even if it's a jarring departure from the glowing compliments that he used to pay her.
But even in a realm where the harshest critiques are part of the civic process, Trump crossed a line this week when he declared his intention to invite Gennifer Flowers to today's presidential debate. What kind of man invites a husband's former mistress to an event to taunt his wife? Trump managed to launch an attack that couldn't be less relevant to his opponent's qualifications or more personally cruel. His campaign and his running-mate later said that it was all a big joke. No matter. Whether in earnest or in jest, Trump showed his tendency to humiliate others.
Donald J. Trump on why he hoped for the housing market to collapse
In 2006, two years before the crash that would destroy the livelihoods of millions of Americans, Donald J. Trump said he "sort of hope[d]" for that eventuality. He stood to make money.
Confronted by Hillary Clinton with that comment at Monday's debate, Trump did nothing to disavow it. To the contrary, he defended it: "That's called business, by the way," he condescended.
Together these remarks showcase a callous indifference to other people's hardships—an indifference that, my colleague Conor Friedersdorf writes, "may matter little for a Manhattan mogul, but matters very much for someone asking to be entrusted with representing every American." No reasonable person who has followed along over these last few months could view such an attitude as an aberration. Rather, it fits in precisely with Trump's long and documented history of putting himself first, even when it means demolishing those who are in his way. Here is a person, a person who may very well become the next president of the United States, who is seemingly unable to imagine what it's like to be someone else.
Communal living is hardly a departure from tradition—it's a return to how humans have been making their homes for thousands of years.
For most of human history, people were hunter-gatherers. They lived in large camps, depending on one another for food, childcare, and everything else—all without walls, doors, or picket fences. In comparison, the number of people living in most households in today's developed countries is quite small. According to the Census Bureau, fewer than three people lived in the average American household in 2010. The members of most American households can be counted on one hand, or even, increasingly, one finger: Single-person households only made up about 13 percent of all American households in 1960. Now, that figure is about 28 percent.
Belonging to a relatively small household has become the norm even though it can make daily life more difficult in many ways. Privacy may be nice, but cooking and doing chores become much less time-consuming when shared with an additional person, or even several people. Water, electric, and internet bills also become more bearable when divided among multiple residents. There are social downsides to living alone, too. Many elderly people, young professionals, stay-at-home parents, and single people routinely spend long stretches of time at home alone, no matter how lonely they may feel; more distressingly, many single parents face the catch-22 of working and paying for childcare. Living in smaller numbers can be a drain on money, time, and feelings of community, and the rise of the two-parent dual-earning household only compounds the problems of being time-poor.
In a gorgeous new video, the SpaceX CEO lays out his vision for a human civilization on Mars.
Even among tech companies, whose product announcements are geared to be grandiose, Elon Musk's Mars-colonization rollout feels like something new.
In a video shared Tuesday at a space exploration conference in Guadalajara, Musk outlined his plan: Before this century is out, a small team of humans will open a spacecraft door, step onto red ground and stare at the sun faintly shining through Mars' hazy atmosphere. A few years later, more people will arrive, but the planet that greets them will look increasingly familiar. Mars will be swaddled in clouds, and the same watery blue that characterizes Earth.
The journey will begin on Launch Pad 39A at Kennedy Space Center, where Apollo 11 lofted humans to another world for the first time. Only now, the patron will not be a global superpower, but SpaceX. Musk unveiled his plans at an annual gathering of the International Astronautical Federation, a group founded during the Cold War.

These New Puritans' formidably serious new album 'Hidden' has been getting music critics worked up, with good cause.
Louis Pattison, writing for the BBC, describes lead-off track 'We Want War' as being "seven minutes of tinny synthesised horns, droning bassoon... and wood-on-wood clacks" - which admittedly makes it sound vaguely like your school orchestra struggling through 'Little Donkey', but bear with me.
"Elsewhere," continues the sometime NME scribe, "the mood is pagan, hallucinogenic, severe" (sort of like Glastonbury's Stone Circle on Saturday night, then). Meanwhile, one broadsheet has called TNP's second album "the first masterpiece of the 2010s."
Basically, it's a very good record indeed, but - as you might have gathered from the reviews already quoted - not exactly an easy listen. You're unlikely to hear bleak, woodwind-heavy tracks such as 'Drum Courts - Where Corals Lie' sandwiched between Kasabian and The Courteeners at your local lager-soaked indie disco. None of the songs could be described as 'steering wheel-tappers'. It's an album to be puzzled over, savoured, scrutinised. You get the idea.
We've been listening to it a lot in the office, interspersed with occasional spins (well, one spin) of The Knife's new effort, an operatic concept album inspired by the life of Charles Darwin. Again, it's not exactly Match Of The Day soundbed fare - but, like most things the enigmatic masked electro duo put their name to, no doubt it'll reveal more with repeated listens.
Listening to both these records inspired us to celebrate the thorny, more avant-garde corners of our record collections. Here, then, are a few 'difficult' albums that we love. Suggest your own by posting a comment. And no, The Enemy's 'Music For The People' doesn't count.
James McMahon
Deus, 'In A Bar, Under The Sea'. An infuriating band at the best of times - for every soul saving alt. rock belter they've got three songs with bassoon solos in them. And there's lots of songs with bassoon solos on their second record. Yet amongst the jazzy mush, the dirgy Beefheart obsessed piano ballads, the ones where Tom Barman sounds like a tramp spitting out his own teeth, there's a song called 'Serpentine'. It would shine like a diamond even embedded in the sun. Amongst the shit produced by the band at their most self-indulgent, it positively radiates.
Jamie Fullerton
Liars, 'They Were Wrong, So We Drowned'. Just before they got too clattery, the perfect balance between hypnotic fuzz-grooves and mental noises like Blair Witches trapped in radiators.
David Moynihan
Aphex Twin, 'Selected Ambient Works 85-92'. Tracks like 'Ageopolis', 'Heliospan', 'Xtal', 'Tha' and 'Pulsewidth' soar majestically or bubble along beautifully. At the other end of the spectrum the likes of 'Green Calx', 'Hedphelym' and 'We Are The Music Makers' are guaranteed to make someone near you splutter, "What the FUCK are you listening to?"
Hamish MacBain
Captain Beefheart, 'Trout Mask Replica'. Just for the bit where he goes: "A squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag is fast and bulbous. Got me?"
Luke Lewis
Of Montreal, 'Skeletal Lamping'. With its crazy lurches of tempo and subject matter - complete with pretentious song titles like 'Triphallus, To Punctuate!' - a lot of this album sounds like pop music as filtered through the mind of a swivel-eyed psycho. I initially hated. I think I still sort of hate it, but at least I can appreciate its genius.
Tim Chester
King Crimson, 'In The Court Of The Crimson King (An Observation by King Crimson)'. The prog pioneers' first album exploded into an unsuspecting '69 a beautiful mess of discordant guitars, twisted brass and about 17 time signatures, and introduced the world to the unhinged genius of Robert Fripp.

Why not take your dog on holiday
The UK has a fantastically diverse landscape which provides endless walking opportunities for you and your four legged friend. You can enjoy miles of dramatic coastal paths, wooded valleys, lakes and fells, rolling moorland, enchanting forests or pretty riverside walks together. There are also many dog friendly pubs, beaches, gardens, parks, restaurants and attractions who welcome well behaved dogs.
Whether you are looking for a coastal retreat or a cosy holiday cottage in the country, taking your pet away on holiday with you can be incredibly rewarding. Whilst it may require a little extra planning, it can help to reduce the costs and anguish involved in putting your beloved dog in a kennel or trying to find someone to look after them.
With a wide range of pet friendly cottages available, Independent Cottages offers holiday homes that can accommodate one to multiple pets. You will be able to make contact with the owner directly to check that the property you are considering is suitable for you and your pet. Most owners are more than happy to discuss the facilities available which may include secure gardens and direct access onto footpaths. You may even find some offering a few extra luxuries for your four legged friend including welcome treats, a comfy bed and a warm shower and drying area for wet muddy paws!
If you are looking for a holiday on a budget, consider taking your dog away out of the peak summer season. Accommodation is normally cheaper, you have a far greater selection of properties available and you will find less crowds. It is also worth noting that many beaches lift their dog bans throughout the winter months in the UK, so you can enjoy wonderful coastal walks on empty beaches where your dog can have a good blast!
Before you set off on your travels, take a look at our top tips for keeping your dog safe on holiday.

Q: A year ago, I registered an Internet domain name for the college club I head. Our treasurer was one day late in sending in our renewal fee last month, and in that 24-hour span the name was sold to a hardcore porn site! Is there any way to reclaim it?
Mr. Roboto hates to be the bearer of bad news, but the law's not your pal when it comes to domain name shenanigans. So-called porn-nappers, shady as their business may be, are well within their legal rights to buy up any lapsed name they wish, provided it isn't a registered trademark like, say, Villagevoice.com. Should the site really mean the world to your club, then there are ways of fighting back. But if you're going to tussle with the Web's bad seeds, be prepared to drain your bank account in the process.
As you've already discovered, remembering to re-up a domain name every year is a chore that's easy to sleep on. Registration services often fail to contact the administrator when the renewal fee is due, or send the notice to a defunct e-mail address. Should he eschew the traditional string-on-the-finger approach, perhaps your airheaded treasurer could benefit from an Internet reminder service, like Neverforget.com.
All it takes is a few hours for a porn-napper to snap into action. Scores of companies, primarily based in the former Soviet Union, scour domain-name lists 24-7, looking for sites that have fallen into arrears. They plunk down about $35 per expired name, then redirect traffic toward an adult site that offers them per-visit kickbacks of a penny or two. Unfortunately, it seems to be the most wholesome enterprises that get porn-napped; churches, in particular, tend to be rather remiss in renewing their domain names, so many parishioners have been bombarded with "I'm 18 and Wet!!!" fare while looking for info on their diocese's next pancake breakfast. More secular victims include the Ballet Theater of Maryland, the Boston Philharmonic, and even the Department of Education.

A porn-napper's greatest hope is that you'll pay up the ying-yang to recover your beloved domain name. "These cases usually settle, as the new registrant is often willing to sell the domain name back again at a nice profit," says Michael Geist, a cyberlaw professor at the University of Ottawa, who adds that it can be a particularly "expensive lesson learned"the bidding starts at $500, and high-traffic names go for several thousand bones.
Sadly, paying such extortionary prices may be your cheapest option. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (Icann.org), which manages the domain-name system, does have a dispute resolution process, but it's very expensive. It'll cost you roughly $1000 merely to file a complaint, and then there's the cost of hiring a lawyer to draft a claim. All that money will go for naught, unless you can prove the disputed name is integral to a trademark you own. Were some smut purveyor to register MrRoboto.com, for example, yours truly would have little recourse, since neither Styx nor The Village Voice has trademarked the name. (Note to said smut purveyors: Don't get any big ideas.)
If your college exists in the same wondrous Shangri-la where Gummi Bears double as doughnut sprinkles, perhaps you have enough cash to fight a court battle. The University of North Carolina recently won an infringement lawsuit against UNCGirls.com, forcing the site to shut down and garnering a $325,521.64 award.
Or you can always try appealing to the porn-napper's consciencegot a good puppy-dog act?but post-Soviet Internet varmints aren't known for being softies. In the end, all Mr. Roboto can offer is a little tough-love advice on dreaming up a new domain name: There are 26 letters in the alphabet. Use them.
Ever wondered why console games cost $50 plus, while lots of DVDs are going for under $20 nowadays? So, too, have the folks at FairPlay (Fairplay-campaign.co.uk), a British consumer group that pressing for lower game prices. FairPlay reckons game makers overcharge because the public's not quite hip to the industry's economics. Mr. Roboto's not 100 percent convinced, but any group that organizes a boycott called "Don't Buy a Videogame Week," which we're currently in the midst of, can't be all bad. For those who can't fathom why the hot Xbox title Steel Battalion costs $200, FairPlay's site is highly recommended.
