Spike Lee's 'Oldboy' adds little to original thriller
The biggest surprise in Spike Lee's "Oldboy" is that it has no surprises.
His mechanical retelling of the brutally clever Korean film hasn't been Americanized; it's been homogenized. Like Gus Van Sant's "Psycho," it's a rote, lifeless, paint-by-numbers remake so hypnotized by the original that it is too paralyzed to find fresh ways to tell an identical story.
If you saw the original film, move on. There's nothing here — hammer fight, a severed tongue, action and sex — you haven't already seen. If you haven't seen the original, see it instead of this remake.
Josh Brolin gives a one-note performance as a broadly unlikable man, abducted and imprisoned for 20 years — five years more than in the original — by he doesn't know whom for something he doesn't know he's done. While imprisoned, he learns from TV news that he is being sought for the murder of his ex-wife, and that his daughter has been adopted.
When he finally escapes, or is purposely freed, he tries to find the perpetrator in an attempt to seek vengeance. Which is what the perpetrator wants him to do. His only allies are an old friend from school, played by Michael Imperioli, and a recovering addict turned social worker, played by Elizabeth Olsen.
"Inside Man," and "25th Hour" are evidence that Lee is capable of great work. But here, as in "Miracle at St. Anna," his reach exceeds his grasp.
While the original "Oldboy" by Park Chan-Wook — which was adapted from a manga, or Japanese comic — was viscerally and visually propulsive, it portrayed a need for vengeance as a form of imprisonment.
But Lee is too busy maneuvering the convoluted plot twists to form or apply any original narrative or creative theories. His visual style — including his trademark free-floating double dolly shot — feels perfunctory. There is a memorable torture scene, but that's credit to the great Samuel L. Jackson's way with words.
Most surprising, "Oldboy" fails to exploit the film-noir embellishments that make New Orleans unique, and which might have given the film texture and coloration.

Photovoice Evaluation Guides
Photovoice is an evaluation method that engages program stakeholders (learners, service recipients, community members) in taking photographs and using them as springboards to express their experiences and points of view. With the prevalence of cameras in mobile devices, along with social media forums, many of us are already engaged in the foundational practices underlying photovoice: taking photos, posting them, and sharing our experiences. Add in some facilitators who provide systematic method design, project management and ethical oversight; and you have the potential to gather program insights that would go untouched through traditional methods. The following two practical resources are written by action researchers describing their lessons learned about conducting photovoice projects. The documents also show you or link you to photos and commentary from contributing participants.
One comprehensive guide comes from the Prairie Women's Health Centre of Excellence (PWHCE), located in Canada. The center engages in collaborative, community-based research on social and other determinants of the health of women and girls. The center's mission is to provide expert advice on social policies related to women's health. The authors (Beverly Palibroda, Brigette Krieg, Lisa Murdock and Joanne Havelock) published A Practical Guide To Photovoice: Sharing Pictures, Telling Stories and Changing Communities, a nuts-and-bolts photovoice manual. It provides detailed advice, with periodic sidebars summarizing process. An appendix includes a helpful checklist. You will find sample photovoice entries throughout the document. The manual was written in 2009. Since then, the PWHCE has introduced digital story-telling into its portfolio of participatory methods.
Another guide was produced based on a photovoice project for Brainline.org, an educational website providing authoritative information about brain injury symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment. The project featured the stories of eight members with traumatic brain injury, with a gallery of essays. Facilitators Laura Lorenz and Barbara Webster developed a succinct facilitator guide based on this project.

Music Lyrics
Bass and Guitar Tabs
and More...
You Won't Be Mine
Take your head around the world
See what you get
From your mind
Write your soul down word for word
See who's your friend
Who is kind
It's almost like a disease
I know soon you will be
Over the lies, you'll be strong
You'll be rich in love and you will carry on
But no - Oh no
No you won't be mine
Take your straight line for a curve
Make it stretch, the same old line
Try to find if it was worth what you spent
Why you're guilty for the way
You're feeling now
It's almost like being free
And I know soon you will be
Take yourself out to the curb
Sit and wait
A fool for life
It's almost like a disease
I know soon you will be

You knew it had to come back to composition, right? I know, everyone is screaming by now "But Jason, you've talked about the Rule of Thirds until the cows literally came home!" Truth be told though, most people think about composition positioning with their subject matter. It's true that subjects are ideally placed on a hot spot or along one of the grid lines in the ROT grid. But you can break the rules too, ya know! I say, put anything you want on a grid spot. Or don't have a specific point of interest! Make the subject of your photo the space! Negative space, as previously mentioned, can be a powerful thing! Read more
Five Elements of Control: #4 Context
Have you ever seen something that looks so out of place that it catches your eye? Well catch it with your lens too, because contextual positioning of subjects in interesting or unusual/unexpected areas creates visual interest. This is what I refer to as controlling the context of your subject. So many times I've heard people tell me "but how can I change the surroundings?" The answer lies not in changing the surroundings of subjects you want to shoot, butin reversing that idea: find unusual subjects in your given surroundings. Say you are on a photo walk and in a city area. Well, try and find subject matter that contradicts the sense of city. Read more
Five Elements of Control: #3 Geometry
Earlier this week, we looked at the idea of how contrast/luminance can impact a photo, and that your creative style may tend toward a wider contrast or a narrower contrast. Then, yesterday we looked at how the element of color can impact a photo, both in the sense of how colors can balance and compete against one another, and how bright versus dark colors can play off each other. Since we're moving from more theoretical to more tangible elements that we want to include in our photos, next up is the geometry of our photos. Read more

Televised images of roaring infernos devastating forests and destroying entire communities in western states have been unsettling. Having experienced frightening grass fires, I cannot imagine the terror of landowners facing the recent mega-fires.
Because super fires are becoming more common, the American Forest Foundation just devoted a large section of its new magazine, "Woodland," to this topic.
Author Gisela Telis wrote, "Across the country, thousands of forest managers and woodland owners are coping with the aftermath of wildfires that burn hotter, faster and longer than ever before."
While low-intensity fire is a natural occurrence that eliminates the build-up of undergrowth "fuel" and actually improves the viability of certain forest ecosystems, superfires simply destroy.
Forest ecologist Peter Fule said, "Large, high-severity fires burn through the whole tree and deep into the soil, making it harder for the forest to regenerate…"
This kind of fire can "sterilize the soil and leave the area vulnerable to floods and landslides," he said.
The increase in these raging, out-of-control disasters is blamed first on the former century-long practice of fire suppression that has resulted in massive understory fuel build-up. Secondly, changing climate patterns have brought prolonged droughts, drying the understory to tinderbox conditions.
Although July's major fires were in Colorado and points west, David Frederick, fire director for the Southern Group of State Foresters, said that the South "now has more fires than any other part of the country (with fires) in the Carolinas that burn three to four feet down into the soil."
Private woodland owners can play an important role in reducing the threat of runaway wildfires. Thinning forested land and administering prescribed burns greatly reduce available fuel. Maintaining firebreaks and forest roads to permit quick access by firefighters is critical. Keeping trees healthy by promptly addressing pest and disease issues will greatly improve their survivability.
To learn more about protecting your land and community from the kind of fiery devastation we have been witnessing, go to www.mylandplan.org/wildfire. Another website, www.firewise.org, offers valuable tips for fireproofing your home.

A trend that has developed into a new recreational sport in the USA and rapidly spread to Europe. With its countless lakes and rivers, Switzerland is naturally a paradise for stand up paddlers. While beginners paddle comfortably across many a lake, more experienced professionals take to fun and action on wilder waters. And whether a tranquil glide over calm early morning waters, a paddling session at noon to compensate a stressful day, or delightful sunset views as you take to the water, SUP is an enriching sport that anyone can take to at any time of day.

The Chicago Bears have hit the midpoint of their season and spend this week watching the rest of the NFL play while preparing for their game against the Philadelphia Eagles. This is a much-deserved bye week, as the Bears have already played some of the toughest games on their schedule.
Yes, there are more to come, but the Bears came into their bye week looking pretty good and have looked more like a playoff team in their last two games.
Like they did last year, the Bears are making some changes on offense, and this has helped them get back to playoff form. If the Bears can continue winning, it's possible that they could make the playoffs.
So just how good are the guys on the offensive side of the ball doing? Where do they stand heading into the second half the season? How did they grade out in the first half of the season?
Let's find out.

In GAO's audits of the Congressional Award Foundation's (Foundation) financial statements for fiscal years 2013 and 2012, it found that the Foundation's financial statements are presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. GAO also identified no material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting based on the limited procedures it performed, and no reportable noncompliance with laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements it tested. In commenting on a draft of this report, the Foundation stated that it has continued its efforts to improve operations and internal control over financial reporting. The Foundation also stated that GAO's audit findings report the positive results of the Foundation's ongoing efforts.

Armed robbers in Geneva, Switzerland break in ... to jail
- From: AFP
- June 22, 2013
MOST criminals would give anything to get out of jail, but two armed robbers in Switzerland decided Friday to turn that on its head, barging into a Geneva jail in broad daylight to steal cash.
The two black-clad men, one of them with a handgun, got into the Montfleury remand centre and made off with an undisclosed sum, said a Geneva police statement that did not provide further details.
The robbers escaped by motorbike across the nearby border with France, and Swiss authorities immediately alerted their French counterparts.
French police went in hot pursuit but lost track of them, later finding their abandoned motorbike.
No-one was injured during the raid on the jail, but the staff were left in shock, Geneva police said.

Ozzy Osbourne talks Israel ahead of concert
By Jennifer Lipman, September 27, 2010
Ozzy Osbourne
Ozzy Osbourne has defied calls to boycott a performance in Israel this week.
The heavy metal star, who arrived in Israel on Sunday for the Tel Aviv leg of his OzzFest tour, said he had "no time" for politics.
"Politicians don't understand me and I don't understand them."
His wife Sharon, the daughter of the late Jewish music impresario Don Arden, added: "Britain has the IRA and no one cancels concerts there."
The former Black Sabbath singer also blamed the fact that he had not performed in Israel before on being "drunk for years."
The concert, with supporting artists including the American band Korn, is to take place on Tuesday in the city's Hayarkon Park.

"Imagine the peace symbol. The peace symbol has three pieces in it. One piece is emotion, that's your body. Another piece has spirit in it, that's your fuel. Another piece has intellect in it and that's your steering wheel. You can never overdo the fuel that goes into the body, which is the emotions and the steering wheel to drive it."
Related quotes
"Tears are the symbol of the inability of the soul to restrain its emotion and retain its self command."
"How come the dove gets to be the peace symbol? How about the pillow? It has more feathers than the dove, and it doesn't have that dangerous beak"
"The frog is the American Indian symbol for peace and it's significant in all these different cultures. So I thought it would be a great name for international flag shorts. I just put a green frog on there. And people were really into the frog. And it just sort of hit."
"Whenever a Concorde flies, people look at it, it's very graceful, it's very beautiful, it is a symbol of peace and international understanding."
"For the peace activists, they are good, symbolic results. They can use them to impress people with how widespread opposition is. But they're misleading as far as aggregate public opinion. It's an April election, which has very low turnout. So as a public opinion specialist, I have to point out how unrepresentative highly motivated voters are in an April election."

About Carbon
What is carbon?
What is Carbon?
What makes carbon fibres so special?
How to fit the parts?
What makes Schmolke products different?
Not the least contribution to Schmolke's proven quality is our attention to detail. We use numerous thin plies because this is necessary to precisely model relevant loads. As a side effect multilayer constructions also improve fatigue strength, that's the life span of the part. On top of that more layers make for a less sudden and unpredictable failure if the parts should break. Unlike simple designs with only few plies of many thin layers do not make the part "brittle" with a tendency for sudden failure; they are more reliable and safer.
The K-factor – what is 1K, 3K and 12K?
UD – what's the story?
Oversize vs. 26/25,4 mm diameter
Does Schmolke Carbon offer a warranty for its products?
What does "SL" stand for?
How safe are Schmolke Carbon products?
Why don't we paint our parts' surfaces?
Can you repair carbon fibre parts?
Do carbon fibre parts have to be replaced after every crash?
If your handlebar shows one or more of the following it is certainly damaged:
If your seatpost does one or more of the following it is certainly damaged:
Please keep in mind, that the above is a guideline based on years of experience. Still we cannot possible guarantee a part after a crash even if none of the above is evident. If in doubt replace the part. Your safety should have highest priority!

Great views and upscale amenities draw business and leisure travelers to this uptown hotel.
A departure from the majority of the city's major business hotels, the Albuquerque Marriott is in the uptown neighborhood on the east side of the city, close to the Coronado and Winrock shopping malls and a number of other shopping, dining and office centers. With no other tall buildings around it, this seventeen-story high-rise enjoys unsurpassed views of the Sandia Mountains to the east and miles of desert, mesas and mountains to the west. Already a comfortable property with attractive rooms, the Marriott underwent a major top-to-bottom overhaul, and the 411 rooms and suites are looking snazzier than ever, with super-plush new beds and linens and such in-room perks as high-speed Internet, two phones with voice mail and coffeemakers. The 16,000 square feet of meeting space was also redone. An indoor-outdoor pool provides recreation year-round, as does the well-equipped gym.

Field Guide: 12 Hidden Outdoor Dining Spots in Philadelphia
Middle Eastern Restaurants and Food in Philadelphia
Where to Go For the Best Brunch in Philly
The Center City District now counts 412 outdoor dining cafes in just Philadelphia's downtown area. Many a sidewalk has been turned over to eating al fresco. But if you're looking to dine in the sunshine without the crowds, out of earshot of the SEPTA bus and away from the peering eyes of passersby, you've come to the right place. Here, our picks for the 12 best hidden outdoor dining spots in Philadelphia.
And Alex Tewfik of Eater, a name that vaguely rings a bell around here, has the scoop on Kanella South's opening party at its new bar tomorrow, September 19th. There will be $7 Odysseus cocktails and the first 50 guests get a free drink. The party runs from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the relocated Cypriot restaurant.
Shockingly, another month of summer has sped by, meaning it's that time again: COOK's September schedule is going up tonight at 6 PM. As usual, the best classes go rather quickly, so you'd better be at the ready if you want to score seats to the classes happening in their kitchen in September. How does a whole hog from Kensington Quarters sound? Or perhaps dumplings from Bing Bing Dim Sum and Cheu Noodle Bar. Want to learn to bake apple pie (it is fall, as scary as that is), or learn to make pasta? Or come see our 40th Open Stove competition? All that and more is on their calendar for September. Read on for the full list.

After a 28-year absence, Tom Martel has returned to Carson Valley with visions of opening a full-service music enterprise. He is beginning by offering guitar and songwriting instruction to local residents.
Martel is a life member of American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers and the Nashville Association of Songwriters International. He was the musical director for the original touring production of "Jesus Christ, Superstar" and wrote the music and lyrics for the Broadway rock opera "Hard Job Being God." He has appeared on the Broadway stage, on television and radio, has recorded for GPM Records and has performed with artists such as Jose Feliciano, Bill Cosby and the Grand Funk Railroad. His songs have been published by MCA Music, Black Mountain Music and others.
"Most of my commercial music and drama activities took place before my hair started to turn gray," Martel said. "As our family started to grow, I gravitated toward my other passion: law enforcement. That's what led to our move to Phoenix in 1986."
Until retiring last July, Martel served as a sworn officer, a securities fraud investigator in the private sector and, most recently, a private investigator working with the Superior Court system in Arizona on criminal cases, mostly gang-related homicides. He also assisted with police K-9 programs in the Phoenix area.
"I have been able to keep my love for music and writing alive by volunteering in the contemporary Christian world for the last several years," he said.
He helped various churches in Arizona develop or enhance their music and drama ministries.
"My ultimate goal is to open a free-standing music store that can not only meet the supply needs of amateur and professional musicians in the Carson Valley, but also provide studio facilities for instruction and recording," Martel shared. "There are a lot of talented people in this wonderful place and it would be nice to spare them from driving to Carson City or Reno. I hope to get this up and running by the second quarter of next year. In the meantime I'll concentrate on teaching the next generation of musicians and songwriters…in their homes…one note at a time."
Martel and his wife, Lori, have been married 43 years. They have four children and six grandchildren.
For more information, call Martel at 781-1206 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Coming in 2016…
…the long-awaited second book in the Second Age of Man series: Broken Promises and third book in the World According to Luke series: Book III: Days of Future Passed. These works are in the editing process and we hope have them in your hands soon!
Once the covers have been finalized (and the preliminary images are looking great!), we'll post excerpts and pre-order information here and on Facebook.
The World According to Luke is the tale of a boy growing into a man several years after the general collapse of modern civilization. Luke's predecessors had foreseen the impending disaster and prepared accordingly. In Book I: My Life in Knots, we meet young Luke, a twelve-year-old boy raised by his grandfather, Michael, as he experiences the growth of his family and his community in a lawless world. Book II: The Age of Reason continues the now thirteen-year-old Luke's adventures and personal growth within his ever-expanding and diversifying community.
The Second Age of Man is the epic story of the end...and beginning...of civilization. Faced with annihilation from their sun's impending nova, a distant planet plans and executes a mass exodus. The Exodus Fleet is comprised of twelve planetoid ships, each carrying ten thousand cryogenically sleeping representatives from one tribe and manned by small crews of naval personnel, scientists, and politicians to lead the search for a new home. However, the primary objective is plagued by deceit and betrayal by secret factions within the leadership. Loyal to the compact agreed upon and signed by all the non-sleeping personnel, a small group pushes the boundaries of the compact to attempt to achieve what they believe they signed on for. This epic saga begins with To Save a Planet and continues Juno and crew's adventure while searching for a new planet to call home in the up-coming Broken Promises.
Of this assortment of essays, poems, and short stories, R. E. Kelly said they gave him "the opportunity to test new voices and concepts." All pieces will eventually be availabe from the online library of R. E. Kelly's assorted works. Periodically, another of this impresive collection of short works will be added to the library of available works until all previous pieces are represented.

Box Office: 'The Vow' and 'Safe House' romancing the top spot after a shockingly potent Friday
Hollywood knew this weekend had a chance at providing strong returns at the box office, but no one predicted that four films would gross over $20 million each. If projections stay on target, that's exactly what will occur. "The Vow," "Safe House," "Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace in 3D" and "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island" are all set for superb debuts all thanks to different audiences.
Topping Friday's box office was "The Vow" starring Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams. The romance has long been projected as a Valentine's Day hit and didn't disappoint with $15.3 million on its first day. The "based on a true story" scenario of a woman who forgets five years of her life and the man she fell in love with hit a nerve with women of all ages and the Screen Gems release is now looking at $38-40 million for the weekend.
Right behind "The Vow" and completely over-performing in second place is Universal Pictures' "Safe House." The Denzel Washington and Ryan Reynolds R-rated thriller found an impressive $13.8 million on Friday for what could also be a $38-40 million three-day. If "House" finds good word-of-mouth it could actually top "The Vow" to win the weekend.
Also surpassing its pre-release projections is 20th Century Fox and Lucasfilm's re-release of "Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace in 3D." It's been over 10 years since the film first hit theaters and a whole generation of kids have never gotten to see it on the big screen. "Star Wars" also still has a passionate fan base who appear to have shown up to support the re-release. With $8.6 million on Friday and strong matinees expected on Saturday, "Phantom Menace in 3D" could easily hit $22-23 million, conservatively, by EOD Sunday.
Another surprise is the left for dead Dwanye "The Rock" Johnson and Josh Hutcherson family flick "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island." A pseudo sequel to the 2008 hit "Journey to the Center of the Earth," "Journey 2" grossed $6.5 million on Friday but is expected to be an even bigger kid player on Saturday. Many expect the Warner Bros. and New Line release to find between $21-23 million over the weekend.
Dropping to fifth place was last weekend's box office champ "Chronicle." The 20th Century Fox found footage adventure grossed another $3.5 million on Friday for an impressive $31.3 million in just eight days. It should easily cross the $35 million mark by Sunday, but anything significantly over $55 million, when all is said and done, is slipping out of reach.
Look for complete box office estimates tomorrow on HitFix.

Personable and professional manner. Spends as much time and more. If he can't handle medical issue, he refers out, and those doctors are a good compliment to him.
No one took my past medical historyNo one took urine samle since I am concerned about being diabeticI got a seminar while a student he was training was in the room with us. ( pretty female )No one asked about my symptomsI finally asked to have blood samples takenWould not go back
Brilliant doctor who was able to manage my grocery list of symptoms and prescriptions and get my medications manageable and working for me. Thanks to him, I feel better than I have for 10 years. No nonsense, practical with a sardonic sense of humor and a true insight how prescriptions should work for the patient.BTW- No wait time in the wait room, but plan on 20 minutes in the examining room
Dr. Rokaw is so smart its scary. The hospital staff has much respect for this man. Very kind, insightful, team player, assertive, and truly is excellent.He is the real life House. With out all the crazy drama.

Congrats drivers! Nice to be recognized for your service isn't it? WTG bus companies for nominating your drivers. Now if First Student would do something like that it would be nice.
ANNANDALE, Minn. — Six school bus drivers from around the state were awarded the 2011 Transportation Specialist Award from the Minnesota School Bus Operators Association (MSBOA) during its annual summer conference.
Sharyn Nepsha of Kottkes' Bus Service, Galen Nilson of Lake Crystal School Bus Service, Debra Pawlowicz of Voyageur Bus Co., Geoff Ralston of Lake City Bus Lines, Mike Schreyer of Faribault Transportation Co. Inc. and Olav Thormodson of Madelia Bus Service received the award.
The drivers were nominated by their supervisors as individuals who exemplify the best of the best in school transportation. The applications were judged on criteria such as years of service, dedication to safety, community service achievements, communication with school staff and letters of recommendation from parents, co-workers, students and school staff.
In addition to the award, a $1,000 check was awarded in each driver's name to go toward a scholarship fund for deserving youth in the school district he or she serves.
In addition to the Transportation Specialist Awards, two former MSBOA board members were recognized for their efforts to the school bus industry.
Lyle Hicks was awarded the Jim DeVeau Award in honor of his many accomplishments both as legislative chair and president of the MSBOA. Dick Plahn received the Lifetime Achievement Award for his contributions to the school bus industry.
The MSBOA was created in 1948 to focus efforts on school bus safety for its passengers in the state. For more information, visit www.msboa.com.

The Cyclones kick off their year Aug. 30. To get you ready for the season, AllCyclones.com will be gauging the depth at every position on the roster. In this installment, we're looking a strongside linebacker/nickel.
Projected Starter: Jared Brackens, Sr., Mesquite (TX)
Projected Backup: Drake Ferch, Sr., State Center
Other Players: Reggan Northrup, Fr., First Coast (FL)
The Leader: Jared Brackens
Ferch might start the season-opener, but I remain convinced Brackens is the better option among the two, once he finally gets out of Paul Rhoads' doghouse. In his first year as a starter, Brackens ranked third on the team in tackles (61) and second in sacks (two) but, despite his background as a defensive back, found himself out of position more than the coaches would like. He might never be a plus-player in that regard, which is why Ferch has been atop the depth chart since the spring, in addition to whatever issues Iowa State is trying to iron out with Brackens. However, Brackens is the best blitzer of any Iowa State linebacker, a skill he showed off in the spring game, and he's a better player in space than Ferch. Our money has him starting by Week 4.
The Wildcard: Drake Ferch
What do we know about Ferch? Not much, as far as his ISU career is concerned. He was a special teams guy last year, after redshirting in 2012, and spent his first two seasons at Iowa Western. Per the coaches, the book on Ferch is that he knows where he needs to be, almost at all times, which makes him the opposite of Brackens, but he's also not as good an athlete. So pick your poison, Cyclones. Ferch should have a nice impact in the first three games as the Cyclones face power-run opponents, given his play-recognition skills and willingness to stick his nose into a scrum.
The Future: Reggan Northrup
Reggan Northrup
Depth is scary at SAM/nickel after the transfer of Charlie Rogers, but Iowa State will do whatever it can to keep a redshirt on Northrup, even if it includes asking Alton Meeks or Luke Knott to play at the position in a spot role. Northrup was singled out by Jevohn Miller at Big 12 Media Days for his impressive showing in summer workouts. At 6-foot-1, 190 pounds, Northrup figures to add 10 pounds to his body and could be the starter in 2015. He played safety and linebacker at First Coast High in Florida.
The Cyclones have a commitment from Olathe North (KS) nickel/SAM 'backer Marcel Spears, who chose ISU over Missouri, Kansas State and Kansas. Iowa State probably won't take another SAM 'backer in its small 2015 class, but depth will be a concern at the position next year and beyond, so it's wouldn't really be the worst idea. Spears might have to play as a true freshman.

William Alison "Bill" Anders (born October 17, 1933), (Maj Gen, USAFR, Ret.), is a former United States Air Force officer, nuclear engineer, NASA astronaut, and businessman. He is, along with Apollo 8 crewmates Frank Borman and Jim Lovell, one of the first three persons to have left Earth orbit and traveled to the Moon (of only 24 people to date).
Early life[edit]
Anders was born on October 17, 1933, in Hong Kong, to U.S. Navy Lt. Arthur F. Anders (d. 2000)[1] and Muriel Adams Anders (d. 1990), and was active in the Boy Scouts of America where he achieved its second-highest rank, Life Scout. Anders attended St. Martin's Academy and graduated from Grossmont High School in La Mesa, California, in 1951.[2]
He received a Bachelor of Science degree from the United States Naval Academy in 1955, and a Master of Science degree in Nuclear Engineering from the U.S. Air Force Institute of Technology at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, in 1962. Anders completed the Harvard Business School's Advanced Management Program in 1979.
He was born and raised Catholic.
Personal life[edit]
Anders married Valerie Hoard in 1955. The couple have four sons and two daughters: Alan (born February 1957), Glen (born July 1958), Gregory (born December 1962), Eric (born July 1964), Gayle (born December 1960), and Diana (born August 1972). They live in Washington state.[3]
Air Force service and NASA career[edit]
Following graduation from the U.S. Naval Academy, Anders took his commission in the U.S. Air Force and after receiving his pilot wings in 1956, he served as a fighter pilot in all-weather interceptor squadrons of the Air Defense Command in California and in Iceland, where he participated in early intercepts of Soviet heavy bombers who were then challenging America's air defense borders.[4] He later was responsible for technical management of nuclear power reactor shielding and radiation effects programs while at the Air Force Weapons Laboratory in New Mexico.
He has logged more than 8,000 hours of flight time.[5]
Spaceflight experience[edit]
"We came all this way to explore the Moon, and the most important thing is that we discovered the Earth."
In 1963, Anders was selected by NASA in the third group of astronauts. He became involved in the NASA work in the areas of dosimetry, radiation effects, and environmental controls. He was the backup pilot for the Gemini 11 mission. Then in December 1968, he flew as Lunar Module Pilot for the Apollo 8 mission, the first mission where humans traveled beyond Low Earth orbit (also the first to reach the Moon, and first to orbit the Moon). Anders took a celebrated photograph of an Earthrise. He served as backup Command Module pilot for the Apollo 11 mission, before accepting an assignment with the National Aeronautics and Space Council, while still remaining an astronaut.[citation needed]
Post-NASA career[edit]
From 1969 to 1973, Anders served as Executive Secretary for the National Aeronautics and Space Council, which was responsible to the President, Vice President and Cabinet-level members of the Council for developing policy options concerning research, development, operations and planning of aeronautical and space systems. He was also a consultant to the Times-Mirror Organisation in Los Angeles, during which he visited one of T-M's several publishing companies, Jeppesen & Co., in Frankfurt, Germany.[citation needed]
On August 6, 1973, Anders was appointed to the five-member Atomic Energy Commission, where he was lead commissioner for nuclear and non-nuclear power R&D. He was also named as U.S. Chairman of the joint U.S./USSR technology exchange program for fission and fusion power.[citation needed]
Following the reorganization of national nuclear regulatory and developmental activities on January 19, 1975, Anders was named by President Ford to become the first chairman of the newly established Nuclear Regulatory Commission, which is responsible for nuclear safety and environmental compatibility.[citation needed] At the completion of his term as NRC chairman, Anders was appointed Ambassador to Norway and held that position until 1977, when he left the federal government after 26 years.[citation needed]
Anders briefly served as a fellow of the American Enterprise Institute, then joined General Electric in September 1977. As Vice President and General Manager of GE's Nuclear Products Division in San Jose, California, he was responsible for the manufacture of nuclear fuel, reactor internal equipment, and control and instrumentation for GE boiling-water reactors at facilities located in San Jose and Wilmington, North Carolina. He also oversaw GE's partnership with Chicago Bridge and Iron for making large steel pressure vessels in Memphis, Tennessee. In August 1979, Anders was sent to attend Harvard Business School's Advanced Management Program. On the first day of 1980, Anders was appointed General Manager of the GE Aircraft Equipment Division. Headquartered in Utica, New York, the division included more than 8,500 employees in five locations in the northeastern U.S. Its products included aircraft flight and weapon control systems, cockpit instruments, aircraft electrical generating systems, airborne radars and data processing systems, electronic countermeasures, space command systems, and aircraft/surface multi-barrel armament systems.[citation needed]
In 1984, he left GE to join Textron as Executive Vice President for aerospace, and two years later became Senior Executive Vice President for operations.[citation needed]
In 1990, Anders became Vice Chairman of General Dynamics, and on January 1, 1991, its chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO). He retired in 1993, but remained Chairman until May 1994.[citation needed]
Anders was a consultant to the U.S. Office of Science and Technology Policy, and was a member of the Defense Science Board and the NASA Advisory Council. He is a retired Major General in the USAF Reserve.
He established the William A. Anders Foundation, a philanthropic organization dedicated to supporting educational and environmental issues. The foundation was a primary sponsor of the American Experience episode, "Race to the Moon." The foundation also founded the Heritage Flight Museum in 1996 at Bellingham International Airport in Bellingham, Washington; Anders serves as its President and until 2008 was an active participant in its air shows.
The Anders crater on the Moon is named in his honor.[citation needed]
On November 13, 2008, Anders and fellow Apollo 8 crew members Frank Borman and Jim Lovell appeared on the NASA TV channel to discuss the Apollo 8 mission.[citation needed]
On June 27, 2009, Anders was a guest of the first World Moon Bounce Day.[citation needed] His interview was bounced off the Moon by radio signals and back to Earth as part of the activities. The first World Moon Bounce Day was timed to precede the 40th anniversary of Apollo 11.
In 2011, Anders spoke at the first Starmus Festival in the Canary Islands, delivering a lecture on the early American space program. His talk was published in the book Starmus: 50 Years of Man in Space.[8]
Anders is a member of Tau Beta Pi National Engineering Honor Society, American Nuclear Society, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and Society of Experimental Test Pilots.[citation needed]

In popular culture[edit]
Anders was portrayed by Robert John Burke in the 1998 HBO miniseries From the Earth to the Moon.
A family-approved account of Anders' life and career appears in the 2007 book In the Shadow of the Moon.
A recording of Bill Anders,[9] made during the Apollo 8 lunar orbit, on December 24, 1968, reading from the Bible (Genesis, Chapter 1) is included on the first track ("In The Beginning") of the Mike Oldfield album The Songs of Distant Earth, with verses repeated again in the second track ("Let There Be Light").
Anders also appeared in the 2005 documentary Race to the Moon, which was shown as part of the PBS American Experience series. The film, renamed in 2013 as Earthrise: The First Lunar Voyage, centered on the events that led up to NASA's Apollo 8 mission.
Anders is interviewed in a chapter of the book No More Worlds to Conquer by Chris Wright. The chapter is roughly evenly split between his life in Apollo and his later corporate life. Anders allowed his Earthrise image to be used as the book's front cover.

'A5X' CPU featured on purported Apple 'iPad 3' logic boardA picture that appears to show the logic board for Apple's next-generation iPad shows a system-on-a-chip labeled "A5X" rather than the "A6" processor that has been rumored.
If accurate, the name "A5X" could suggest the next iPad's custom processor is a more powerful version of the existing A5 CPU found in the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S, rather than an overhauled next-generation "A6" processor. The picture of a purported iPad 3 logic board was first revealed at WeiPhone (via MacRumors).
The board indicates the A5X chip was manufactured in November of 2011. It also includes 16 gigabytes of flash memory from Hynix.
Apple first began utilizing its own custom chips with the first-generation iPad in 2010. The A4 CPU then appeared later that year in the iPhone 4.
The strategy continued in 2011, when the iPad 2 was introduced with the A5 CPU debuting in the iPad 2, sporting a dual-core design and faster graphics processing. The A5 eventually came to the iPhone 4S in late 2011.
But the leaked logic board suggests that for the third-generation iPad, Apple will instead use the name A5X. That could support a rumor from earlier this month that claimed the custom processor to be found in the next iPad will still be a dual-core model, not quad core as had been rumored, though it was said it will feature a "significantly more powerful" graphics processor.
Purported "iPad 3" parts continue to appear as time ticks down to an anticipated March 7 unveiling of the next-generation touchscreen tablet. Other recent leaks include the external case design, and even a microscope-enhanced look at an alleged third-generation iPad LCD screen, offering further evidence that the device will feature a high-resolution Retina Display.
