Mass layoff actions reach peak again in May 2009
June 24, 2009
Employers took 2,933 mass layoff actions in May that resulted in the separation of 312,880 workers, seasonally adjusted, as measured by new filings for unemployment insurance benefits during the month. The number of mass layoff events matched the peak level from March 2009, with data available back to 1995.
From May 2008 to May 2009, the number of mass layoff events increased by 1,232 and associated initial claims increased by 132,322.
In May 2009, 1,331 mass layoff events were reported in the manufacturing sector, seasonally adjusted, resulting in 165,802 initial claims. Over the year, manufacturing events and initial claims more than doubled.
During the 18 months from December 2007 through May 2009, the total number of mass layoff events was 37,059, and the number of initial claims was 3,811,307. (December 2007 was the start of a recession as designated by the National Bureau of Economic Research.)
These data are from the Mass Layoff Statistics program and are seasonally adjusted. Each mass layoff action involved at least 50 persons from a single employer. To learn more, see "Mass Layoffs in May 2009" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL 09-0703.

EA Closing Down Chicago Studio
Midwestern branch behind Fight Night, Def Jam will be no more.
Gibeau's memo was honest about EA's motives. "Within the EA Games Label, we are committed to running each franchise and facility as a city/state, teams with unique creative identities as well as responsibility for product quality, ship dates and profitability. We recognize that games require large investments and extended development cycles," he said. " [...] But each team is responsible for staying on a reasonable path to profitability. Sticking to that strategy is what gives us the financial resources and flexibility to take risks on new projects."
And then came the dagger. "Unfortunately, EA Chicago hasn't been able to meet that standard. The location has grown dramatically in the past three years while revenue from the games developed there has not," said Gibeau.
There's been no word on the future of the Fight Night and Def Jam IPs, or confirmation on what's happening to the 150+ employees currently stationed within EA Chicago -- the memo says they are offering relocation opportunities to "many" and outplacement assistance and severance for "eligible employees." 1UP is attempting to learn more from EA as we speak, but if you're one of the affected, feel free to let us know.

I'm just curious to see what theyre gonna do with the marvel game they were working on. The game looked good but the whole "sending someone flying 100 times" during a fight was just a dumb gimmick.
Fight Night is too popular...Posted: Nov 06, 2007 12:00AM PST by BlazingAero
...to go down with its studio, and as mentioned before, the corporate gods will just send it to another studio within EA. 150+ employees on the studio of Def Jam and Fight Night? Yikes.
Fight Night Round 3Posted: Nov 06, 2007 12:00AM PST by Ap3cHe_w3rrior_falco
was and is the greatest boxing game I've ever played or had the pleasure to own. I hope that EA has the brains to continue this series somehow since most of their other IPs are pure trash.
I blame IconPosted: Nov 06, 2007 12:00AM PST by DOAisMuyo365
If Def Jam: Icon wasn't so busted, EA Chi-town would still be in bussiness. I'm going to miss Fight Night. That was the main reason I got a Xbox360.

Now what will happen to the new Marvel fighting game they were making?
Nothing PersonalPosted: Nov 06, 2007 12:00AM PST by Ultimate_Gamer14
People will probably cite EA for being heartless and cruel in this business move, forcing over 100 people to relocate, but the fact is that it's just that. Business. If EA's Chicago studio is not pulling it's own weight, then the sensible business move would be to close it down and cut your losses.

Skip to comments.New Poll Shows Sanford, Colbert Busch Tied
Posted on 05/02/2013 11:11:03 AM PDT by jimbo123
For what its worth: Less than a week before the contentious special election between Mark Sanford (R) and Elizabeth Colbert-Busch (D), a RRH/PMI automated survey of 650 likely voters in South Carolinas 1st Congressional District finds the race as close as can be, with both candidates taking 46 percent of the vote and 7 percent undecided. The survey has a margin of error of +/- 5 percent.
(Excerpt) Read more at nationalreview.com ...
Wish both of them could lose.
Oh, and right on time, just when I was talking about Sanford, here is a poll with him decidedly NOT going up in smoke.
Just to be clear, I probably would not have voted for him in the primary. I forgive him, but I don't believe forgiveness means you should serve in public office again, however, people citing this as another 'Akin' before the guy has even lost, when he's not even down in the polls, is ridiculous.
I hope he wins just to shut Rove and his lemmings up.
I say let Sanford win, then primary his butt out in 2014.
Probably the best plan available.
Yes, but you'll need a challenger for that. Obviously his opponents in this primary were too weak. Hopefully someone surfaces?
The district is typically R+11. This could be entertaining.
I hope Sanford wins, and bigtime. Otherwise we will be stuck with yet one more uber liberal vote in Congress. Time to get off the moral high horse. Sanford fell in love; not commit a murder. Relationships are messy things, however, if a good amount of Freepers were willing to put up with Newt Gingrich for Prez, whose affairs outside of marriage were multiple and tacky to boot, then one should allow for a single indiscretion by Sanford with a woman he is engaged to marry.
Why anyone in their right mind would want a Dem to win here is beyond me. Any Republican is better than any Democrat, always. It's the ideology that is of concern here. I hope Sanford beats this woman by a wide margin. What possible satisfaction could one have in seeing yet another Dem put in office to vote for further liberal policies that will end up hurting all of us in our daily lives. Geez, people have got to keep things in proper perspective. Think, not react emotionally.
Remember though, Democrat voters become relatively more sucky in elections that don't have presidents on ballots. They're less cooperative when the bus comes to pick them up and take them to the polling stations. These voters weigh costs and benefits, and voting for one House seat has to compete with important Democrat activities like "go and get booze with my foods stamps" and "read my copy of Gays Monthly".
2013 South Carolina
1st District Primaries Results
Last Updated 3/21/13 4:27 PM ET
Candidate Party % of Vote Vote Count
E. Colbert Busch Dem 95.9% 15,802
M. Sanford GOP 36.9% 19,854
While I don't agree that any Republican is better than a DemonRat, Sanford is better than any DemonRat, especially this particular scum-sucking leech.
Total votes cast in the 1st district Primary:
GOP Votes in Primary: 53,793
RAT Votes in Primary: 16,484
Sanford Votes in Primary: 19,854
Colbert Votes in Primary: 15,802
There were more Sanford voters than there were general voters in the entire Democrat primary. If I had to place a bet, a crappy comedian is going to be bitter on election night.
Exactly. And the NY Times Nate Silver who has access to RAT campaign polls hasn't gone on the record declaring a Colbert win. This might be fun to watch.
If he survives to win this special election, it will be virtually impossible to find an adequate challenger in the regular election's primary. Where was that person for this primary?
By next year,, he'd be an incumbent and will have tied up the support of every important voting bloc and donor in the district and have a safe $ cushion to thwart the challenge. Same with her, tho I think the CD is strongly R enough that she could face a challenge, to what avail who knows? Nothing as good as incumbency to spell future success.
I'm just curious, if Sanford loses, will Mamacita high tail it back to Buenos Aires, because she doesn't want to be stuck with a "loser"?
I hope the republican bastard wins. Better than having a Democrat bitch, and I'd enjoy watching Rove eat crow...
I'm curious if his Mamacita is hot.
Vote for the weasel. It's important.
Seriously, is Mamacita in SC? During the election? You'd think he'd have her maintain a super low profile.
Rove will eat an entire murder of crows. He won't care though. He eats crow morning, noon, and night. Nobody ever holds him accountable.
And the ex wife?
Any Republican voter in SC-! that votes for Colbert-Busch is not all there. She is simply the lying tool put forth by Obama & Pelosi!!! Yes, he sinned, who hasn,t??? John Kennedy, FDR did, DDE, did, Thomas jefferson did, Bill Clinton, did, Ted Kennedy did, John Edwards did, etc, etc.!!!
Fact is:Sanford won two primaries. There was ample opportunities to knock him out of the running!!! Listen: we are fighting for the life of our country. Obama & Pelosi will destroy it!!! A vote for Cloibert-Busch is a vote for the continuing destruction of America. Don't be fooled, she is lying through her teeth. She is one of the enemy, period!!! One of the worst, fact...a wolf in sheep's clothing!!!
From Google's capsule summary on the right side of the SERP:
Jennifer Sullivan Sanford is the former First Lady of South Carolina, heiress, and former investment banker. She was married to Governor Mark Sanford, whose initial campaigns she substantially funded.
I hope he wins just to keep a RAT out of that seat. (Better a rat than a RAT)
Well put.
There were two candidates on the 'Rat ballot, and the winner got 96%. There were 16 candidates on the GOP ballot, and Sanford got 37%, requiring a runoff between Sanford and Bostic (13%), which Sanford won 57% to 43%.
Sanford beats Colbert's frumpy sister like a rented mule! Rove, Prince (sic), Hannity and some Freepers are very, very sad.
In their daily lives, most people don't get to do 100% of what they want, even when the decisions are entirely up to them. Some respond by insisting on getting 100% of what they want in their political candidates, even though the actual decision will be made by tens of thousands of other voters. It's a strange kind of phenom - the less control we have over something, the more we insist that this something is tailored to our individual preferences.
Polls had Sanford down by 9 points last week. Maybe folks are waking up that his opponent will do nothing but say yes to Obama.
The Republicans are so screwed if he wins. When the rest of the dirt comes out on him and he starts acting insane in public, the GOP will be a laughing stock. But people "have to" vote for him because that fruit loop is more important than the country and it's evil to "judge someone." His first agenda is gun control. It will be pretty quiet around here if Sanford is the deciding vote on the gun ban. I can imagine the quality television now, "I realized that I made terrible mistakes that hurt my family, and the only way I could ever make up for that is making guns illegal." Don't say you weren't warned.
True, but then again, any Republican voter who votes for Sanford isn't all there. Putting a wacked out, criminal, low-IQ, Left wing person into Congress to redeem himself by imposing gun control and gay marriage on the country isn't my idea of smart.
You could make a new show out of those two, Sanford and Daughter.
"Any Republican is better than any Democrat, always."
The They Who Walk on Water cult here on FR would rather see a rat in office than a conservative who stumbled. They're part of the 19th century millennialist Philistine cult who are thinking that they're one of the chosen 144,000 who will be evaporated into heaven.

Historical Traveler Reviews Montien Riverside Hotel Bangkok
Fantastic Hotel
We stayed at the Montien Riverside for four nights in June. We thought that it was a amazing hotel, incredible friendly service and great food. The hotel is a bit out of the way, but not realy a problem with the free shuttle bus and taxis are cheap and plentiful. The rooms are just bigining to look like they are ready for a refurb, but made up for by there size and the views. We will definatly stay there again.
Montien Riverside
It was a pleasure to stay at this hotel! The service is top notch! We enjoyed the time we spent here very much. Our room was perfect--overlooked the river. The laundry service was prompt and well done. The breakfast was varied and plentiful as well as delicious. The hotel provides transportation into Bangkok with a shuttle that runs on time and is air conditioned! Loved not being in downtown Bangkok due to the heat and humidity; not a problem for us even if we had to shuttle in or take a cab. The pool is really nice--attendants there to provide towels, drinks, whatever you want! Every member of the staff performed their job with efficiency and courtesy. The floor attendant was exceptional as well as the desk people. We would stay at this hotel again!
Ok, but far from everything
I stayed here in July 2004 and have made many trips to Bangkok and stayed in far nicer hotels. The hotel is very average and too far down the river away from everything. Our room was very unappealing and our river view was out to the side on some very unsightly building works. However the evening river cruise/dinner was superb and highly recommended with excellent food and cannot fault the staff. Overall it was ok but would stay at a hotel further up the river next time.
Great Service, Food, Rooms
While the location is not central, they do provide an efficient and free shuttle service to the Montien Plaza, right near Patpong and the BTS train. The buffet breakfast is fabulous (try the guava juice!!). The pool is nice. The rooms are terrific -- clean and new and wonderful. The staff cannot do enough for you, and they greet you after your long journey with a cool drink. A great experience.
Montien Riveride - Bangkok- Do try it !!
Great place to stay. My son and I spent 4 nights here and we were made to feel so welcome by all members of the team. The warmth of the Thai people is well known, but this team is exceptional. From the moment the front doors is opened you feel genuinly welcomed. What an entrance it is too. So peaceful at night, a real place to rest. The hotel is spotless everywhere.
We found the room very comfortable and we enjoyed a good view over the river. Anything we asked for was delivered quickly, and always with a real smile. The elevators are real efficient to all floors, no waiting time of any consequence. The Gym is excellant and has trainers in attendance. The pool is good, but sheltered from the sun PM. The buffett breakfast is first class, plenty to choose from. A chef on duty to cook an egg any style, he also makes a good pancake.
The downside, if it is one is the distance from the city centre. As previous reviewer has said avoid the rush hour as it can take time to travel. A way round this would be to take a taxi to the nearest sky train station, once here it is easy to navigate yourself to the city. The other choice for visiting the Grand Palace woud be to take a cab to nearest Public Pier ( about 15 minutes in non rush hr) and take a water taxi for next to nothing to the Temple of Dawn pier. Very relaxing way to start another busy tourist day. Don't forget to carry the hotel card with you for taxi journeys.
In short a great place, a real rest after the madness of Bangkok city. I will certainly stay here again. Alex and I were sad to check out. Our view is give it a try.
Oasis in BKK
We stayed 3 nights at this hotel in february. The hotel is not in the city center of Bangkok but is an oasis of calm from a chaotic city. The food, service and grounds are very nice. they also offer a free shuttle downtown from which any location is an easy ride by tuk tuk or taxi. Great deal for the price.
Most enchanting service
Not in the middle of the (charming but) chaotic city of Bangkok, but nevertheless a nice location at the river. Shuttle-Bus service to the Montien Hotel in the heart of the city every half hour (reservation necessary) is not advisable during rush hour. Parking facilities for rented cars, car delivery service to the hotel available with most car-rentals.
Rooms are comfortable, service in the different restaurants and bars in the hotel is excellent.
Most friendly personel makes you feel at home after an exhausting day in the city... "Welcome back home!"
Very nice, subtle luxury
Wonderful hotel. Very clean, spacious room. Robes and slippers provided. Beautiful bathroom and shower. Spotless.
The buffet breakfast had a huge selection of food (warm and cold), very attentive staff.
Cheap and delicious room service (if you order the non western food)!
Outstanding and eager staff, greeting you at every entrance/exit to the hotel, elevators, room floor. The service you'd expect at Ritz-Carlton or the 4 Seasons.
It is a little far away from the city proper, but as another review mentioned, taxis and tuk-tuks are readily available. Average cab fare should be about 100 Baht (~4 USD) to most any central location (grand palace, silom, etc.)
Will return without hesitation.
Reception areas were beautiful, staff could not do enough to help and were always smiling. The room was spacious and very clean, the view from the window over the river was fascinating. Only downside was it was a bit too far away from the shopping and nightlife, but taxis or tuk tuk's were always available so didn't really cause us a problem. We stayed in 3 hotels on our trip to Thailand all were very good but this one was probably the best.
Try to find a better hotel in Bangkok or anywhere!!
In one word: Unbelievable. I have been to alot of hotels with my family. They agree with me - nowhere we have ever stayed has come close to the Montien Riverside!!
One night we had dinner at the hotel. There were the three of us. Standing next to us for the mojority of the meal were four waiters!! Talk about feeling like kings! One guy waited to serve more food when our plates were getting emptier, one guy took care of the water, one guy brought the cocktails, and one guy took away the used plates, cutlery, etc. replacing it with new for the next course!
After two nights in Bangkok, we moved down the coast to the Hua Hin Hilton ( one night the Queen of Thailand had a party at the Hilton when we were there ). The Hua Hin Hilton is quite a special hotel ( just ask the Queen ) but after staying at the Montien Riverside in Bangkok, even a Hilton felt like "roughing it".
TripAdvisor Reviews Montien Riverside Hotel Bangkok
Travel Blogs from Bangkok
After waking up a touch later than intended, we rushed our breakfast, paid for the hotel and grabbed a taxi to the airport. The taxi driver was so keen to transport us again upon our return that he gave us his card. I doubt that we'll be able to locate it when and if we ever return. If Becky wasn't feeling very happy already (predominantly because we woke up late) she was even less happy when the security staff before the departure lounge informed ...
... to take a tour to the top of Doi Inthanon. At a little over 8,400 feet, it is Thailand's highest mountain. We had expected to have great views of the surrounding area from the top, but it turned out the only thing we could see was a Naval weather station. The day also included stops at two mountain villages as well as a couple of waterfalls. Our final day in Thailand we took a 5 hour minibus ride to the Thai-Laos border to start the second leg of our ...

After just over 11 hours I finished Reach last night. Not since the original Halo have I found myself thinking about a game in the series so much after I'd finished it. I didn't watch any of the videos or read any of the previews of Reach prior to playing, this was partly because I wanted to play it without any preconceptions but also because these days I really don't have time to absorb myself in games in the same way that I used to because of real life issues. In many ways I'm glad I didn't read or see anything because playing Reach really gave me similar feelings to the ones I had playing the original Halo.
The campaign delivered exactly what I wanted, some open environments and the ability to make my own decisions on how to achieve the goal. This is one of the reasons I can see myself going back to Reach and playing it on Legendary (I finished it on Heroic). Whenever I've finished a Call of Duty game I never feel the desire to go back, after all they basically seem to be designed in a way that the player goes from scripted set piece to scripted set piece. Sure, Halo is also full of set pieces, but the combat itself feels a lot more free form, I don't feel like I'm being funnelled down a corridor. I know that if I try the game on Legendary I'll probably have to play the game completely differently. This really makes it worth going back.
I don't really have anything to say about multiplayer, sure I'll probably give it a go, but I can't see myself playing it very much. For me, Halo has always been about the single player campaign. At the moment it's not like I have much choice, being a gamer in Shanghai makes multiplayer difficult. I can't play with my friends online very easily from the UK because of lag and I don't really want to have abuse shouted at me by random people. So instead I'll stick with the campaign, the Elites may insult me but at least it's in a language I can't understand.
I'm not sure I'll ever really be 'finished' with Reach. Even if I go back and complete in on Legendary there are still a ton of other challenges to complete. But it's not just ticking all the achievement boxes, it's the Halo universe as a whole. Despite what many people say about the story it is, at least to me, pretty compelling and I don't want it to be over. As corny as it may sound I do feel some kind of attachment to the universe, far more than I ever did with the more 'real world' Call of Duty series. I'm hoping that 343 Industries will be able to further expand the universe, they're supposed to be 'stewards' of the franchise after all. Let's just hope they do a better job than George Lucas has with his stewardship of the Star Wars universe...

OSHA News Release – Region 1
U.S. Department of Labor
Region 1 News Release: 05-1588-BOS/BOS 2005-221
Monday, August 22, 2005
Contact: Ted Fitzgerald
Phone: (617) 565-2074
CONCORD, N.H. -- Fall hazards and an obstructed exit at a Merrimack, N.H., warehouse store have resulted in a total of $73,000 in fines from the U.S. Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
V.I.P. Discount Auto Parts, based in Lewiston, Maine, was cited for one alleged willful and two alleged serious violations of workplace safety standards following an OSHA inspection prompted by an employee complaint.
OSHA cited the company for willfully exposing workers to falls by failing to provide stair towers long enough to reach the top rows of 16-foot storage racks safely. To remove tires from the uppermost rows, workers climbed on the stair tower's railings or the storage rack's shelving, both of which provided hazardous access. The company was fined $70,000 for this willful violation, which is one committed with an intentional disregard of, or plain indifference to, the requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Act and regulations.
"Company management clearly knew about this hazard but did not address it, even though the issue had repeatedly been raised by workers and store management," said Rosemarie Ohar, OSHA's New Hampshire area director. "It shouldn't take a significant fine to compel an employer to supply a basic, necessary and clearly- recognized safeguard."
OSHA's inspection also found that the store lacked signs to clearly direct workers to emergency exits and that one of the emergency exit doors was welded shut, rendering it unusable. These conditions resulted in two serious citations and $3,000 in fines. A serious violation is a condition where there is a substantial possibility that death or serious physical harm can result to an employee.
V.I.P. Discount Auto Parts has 15 business days from receipt of the citations to request and participate in an informal conference with the OSHA area director or to contest them before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission. The investigation was conducted by OSHA's Concord area office, telephone (603) 225-1629.
Employers are responsible for providing a safe and healthful workplace for their employees. OSHA's role is to assure the safety and health of America's workers by setting and enforcing standards; providing training, outreach, and education; establishing partnerships; and encouraging continual improvement in workplace safety and health.

MESA, AZ - A man and his horse had to be rescued in Mesa on Thursday after they crashed into a canal.
Mesa Fire Department officials said the horse and buggy crashed into a canal at Greenfield and McKellips roads around 3 p.m. Thursday.
Air15 video showed the horse being walking out of the water by fire officials.
Officials said the horse was walking near the edge of the canal to keep its distance from a car parked along the canal, when it fell into the water.
The horse and the man both escaped the crash without any injuries.

|Brian Thornton Bio
Courtesy: Ball State Athletics
Release: 05/12/2014
Brian Thornton, a former Academic All-American at Xavier, completed his second season as an assistant coach with the Ball State men's basketball program in 2015-16.
He helped the Cardinals to the fourth-largest turnaround in the nation, culminating with a quarterfinal appearance in the CIT in Ball State's return to the postseason for the first time in 14 years. Ball State finished 21-14 and claimed a share of the Mid-American Conference West Division championship at 10-8 in league play.
Thornton joined the Ball State men's basketball staff as an assistant coach in May 2014. He works directly with the Cardinals' post players.
In 2015-16, he helped forward Franko House to All-MAC Second Team and MAC All-Defensive Team honors. House and fellow post player Bo Calhoun have made tremendous strides under Thornton's guidance. In 2014-15, Calhoun ranked as the second-most improved offensive player in the MAC in terms of league scoring average from one season to the next.
Before coming to Ball State, Thornton coached with Winthrop for two years under head coach Pat Kelsey. He helped the Eagles to a 20-13 record in 2013-14, marking the program's first 20-win campaign in six years. Winthrop tied for second in the South Division of the Big South Conference and advanced to the championship game of the league tournament before falling to Coastal Carolina.
Before arriving at Winthrop, Thornton spent two years as the director of basketball operations at Xavier under head coach Chris Mack and one year as an assistant coach at Furman. He was on the staff for Xavier's run to the Sweet 16 of the 2010 NCAA tournament.
"I am thrilled to be adding Brian Thornton to our staff," Ball State head coach James Whitford said. "I had the great privilege of coaching Brian at Xavier, where he was a terrific player and a great student. He brings experience a college player, a professional player and someone who has had success in the business world. He has worked under two coaches I greatly respect in Chris Mack and Pat Kelsey, both of whom really raved about Brian's time with them. His experience as a post player will provide our big guys with a unique advantage."
Thornton played his first two years of college basketball for coach Kevin Stallings at Vanderbilt (2001-03) and his final two for coach Sean Miller at Xavier (2004-06). Whitford was an assistant on the Musketeers' staff for his final college season.
Thornton was a Southeastern Conference All-Freshman Team selection in his rookie year at Vanderbilt. He went on to score 1,175 points for his career, surpassing the 500-point mark at both Vanderbilt and Xavier. By his senior year with the Musketeers, he was a first-team All-Atlantic 10 Conference selection and an all-district pick by the National Association of Basketball Coaches.
"I am excited about working with Coach Whitford," Thornton said. "I know the way he runs things and the 'do what we do' philosophy that exists at places like Arizona, Xavier and Ball State. Ball State is obviously a place that has had a history of success, and that is intriguing. The school is in a state that has maybe the best basketball in the country, so there are plenty of kids who are available and interested in being Ball State Cardinals."
Thornton ranked among the top 10 in the nation in shooting percentage (.640) as a senior in 2005-06 while leading the Musketeers with 15.3 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game. He became the first men's basketball player in Xavier history to earn Academic All-America honors.
The Louisville, Ky., native went on to play professionally in Germany before returning to Xavier as a volunteer coach while completing work on his MBA. He graduated cum laude from Xavier with a bachelor's degree in liberal arts in 2005 and also earned his MBA from Xavier in 2007.
Thornton and his wife Kelsey have one daughter, Makayla, who was born in November 2014.

Hard people face harsh choices
We are all our own worst enemies. Rare opportunities dismissed, family ignored, bad habits embraced. And then there's Marcela Cmolíková, the wildly beating heart of Jan Hrebejk and Petr Jarchovsky's "Beauty in Trouble." She is both beautiful and trouble.
Played by Ana Geislerová, Marcela is all flashing eyes and curled lips, and it's no wonder. We meet her as her family's home and business are just emerging from the muck left behind by a disastrous flood. Marcela, the mother of two children, isn't happy. To say she's tightly wound is an understatement: You could bounce quarters off her cheeks, and every smile hides resentment over her situation.
This being a Czech film, drama, comedy, history, and social commentary are served up in equal proportion. Marcela's husband, Jarda (Roman Luknár), is a brutish man-boy who makes ends meet - barely - by turning ill-gotten cars into spare parts. Jarda's mother, Líba (Emília Vásáryová), once fervently Communist and now obsessively religious, pleads with her son to repent; but when someone's Skoda disappears in the night, there's no question where it's going.
Marcela's mother, Zdena (Jana Brejchová), isn't much better, as she's kind but weak, with a selective memory and a husband who would give the nastiest summer-blockbuster villain a run for his money. Played to revolting perfection by Jirí Schmitzer - think Steve Buscemi at his least sympathetic - Rísa is in turns crass, lecherous, duplicitous, and cruel. That he's also ill isn't his doing, but how he uses his condition to manipulate and punish those around him very much is.
Into all this descends Evzen Benes (Josef Abrhám), a Czech expatriate who's been living in Italy. He's drawn back to Prague when his childhood home is awarded to him in a court settlement. After one of Jarda's associates picks the wrong car to boost, Marcela and Evzen meet in a delightfully underplayed scene at a police station. She's there to see - and curse - her husband, while Evzen, reading an Italian translation of Milan Kundera's "The Unbearable Lightness of Being," calmly waits to press charges.
At first there's no doubt: Evzen is everything Marcela's husband isn't - wealthy, kind, and cultured, for starters - and that's good. Friendly dinners soon run late into the night, and when Marcela and her children find themselves in need of a place to stay, Evzen is there to help. "You're just a dream, right?" Marcela asks, poking him in the chest as if to verify he's real. "The look on your face suggests the opposite," he replies.
Written by Jarchovský and directed by Hrebejk (best known for 2000's Oscar-nominated "Divided We Fall"), "Beauty in Trouble" has no shortage of plot. Beyond the natural disaster that kicks it off, there are not one but two funerals, several arrests, and more than a few physical confrontations, all topped off with a generous helping of emotional - and in one case, financial - extortion. Thankfully, the melodrama is interspersed with lighter moments, in particular a fancy meal at which Rísa, Zdena, and Marcela debate in furious whispers her future and Evzen's merits while he's off selecting the wine.
What's tougher to know is whether Jarchovský and Hrebejk fully respect any of the characters whose lives they've so intricately mapped out. Like Marcela, they're inconstant, praising someone one moment only to betray him or her the next - or the reverse. Is Evzen a saint or a doormat? Both. Jarda, a lout, is also sincerely in love with his wife and desperate to reunite his family. We're made to pity Rísa, but aren't permitted to forget his all-too-numerous shortcomings. And as for our beauty, she's been wronged at nearly every turn by life, but is no prize.
It's not giving away too much to say that there's no happy ending - nor is there an unhappy one. While "Beauty in Trouble" concludes with Marcela in a very different situation from when it began, the question remains the same: Will she make the right decision? Perhaps, but then again, what is the right decision?

The scheduling partnership between the Pac-12 and Big Ten might have ended before it started, but teams in both leagues continue to end up on each other's schedules.
The latest matchup features Michigan State and Arizona State, which Tuesday announced a home-and-home series in 2018 and 2019. Arizona State will host the first matchup on Sept. 8, 2018, and the Sun Devils will visit Spartan Stadium on Sept. 14, 2019.
Pay attention, SEC and ACC. This is called a solid nonleague matchup. If the playoff selection committee has a backbone, you'll need these to make the top four after recently voting to remain at eight conference games. Both leagues are requiring their members to play at least one nonleague game against a major-conference foe, but the quality of those contests, aside from annual rivalries like Clemson-South Carolina and Florida State-Florida, remains to be seen.
Fans of both Arizona State and Michigan State, meanwhile, get nine league games plus this appetizing intersectional gathering. The Pac-12 already plays nine league games, and the Big Ten will go to nine in 2016.
MSU adds ASU to a slate of nonconference games that features Oregon this season and next, Notre Dame in 2016 and 2017, Miami in 2020 and 2021 and Boise State in 2022 and 2023. The Spartans also had a home-and-home series scheduled with Alabama, but the Tide opted to cancel it.
Arizona State has upcoming games against Texas A&M (2015), Texas Tech (2016, 2017) and LSU (2022 and 2023).
Bottom line: Both teams are in good shape, schedule-wise, for the playoff.
These games are a long way off, but if coaches Todd Graham (ASU) and Mark Dantonio (MSU) remain in their positions, it creates an intriguing offense vs. defense matchup. The teams have met just twice before, as Michigan State won on its home field in 1985 and Arizona State defended its turf the following year.
Some Big Ten fans will wonder why Michigan State scheduled Arizona State after what happened to Wisconsin last season at Sun Devil Stadium. It will be interesting to see if Michigan State asked for Big Ten officials -- customary for the road team at most venues -- for the 2018 game. Arizona State is 9-0 at home against Big Ten foes.
After the scheduling alliance dissolved, there was some concern the historic ties between the Big Ten and Pac-12 would fray. It has been just the opposite, as the leagues this year will begin playing two more bowl games (Holiday and Fight Hunger) and have several upcoming series like Michigan State-Oregon, Nebraska-Oregon and Wisconsin-Washington. Northwestern is set to play Stanford six times between 2015-22, and Michigan plays two Pac-12 teams in 2015 (Utah and Oregon State) and another (Colorado) in 2016.
Another good matchup has been added. Will it help or hurt the Spartans and Sun Devils in their quest to make the playoff? Time will tell, but fans of both teams should be excited about the series.

Food Critic Jonathan Gold Tells About Getting Stinkeye From Suge Knight
Why would Suge Knight get mad at a Pulitzer Prize winning food critic? Well, he used to be a hip hop critic.
Food Is the New Rock asked critic Jonathan Gold to be interviewed about, naturally, music. He responded with this email:
Sure, I guess. As long as you understand that with a few exceptions, my knowledge of pop pretty much slammed shut in late '96, around the time of the death of Tupac. I can talk with Talmudic subtlety about the 20 years before that, when I played in punk bands, ran clubs, wrote about rap, hard rock and what was then called "electronica" for the L.A. Times, Spin and Rolling Stone, and played the Boswell to Snoop Dogg's Samuel Johnson - but at the point when all roads led to Britney Spears, Metallica became a boogie band and hip-hop violence stopped being a cartoon, it was time for me to exit, stage left. Ever gotten stinkeye from Suge Knight? You would have changed professions too.
Let's hope he never has an issues with Gold's restaurant reviews.
- Miami Marlins star pitcher José Fernández has died in a boating accident. He was 24.

What materials did you use? We planted our garden at the top of a hill in our backyard. So we had to build a retaining wall so we wouldn't lose our good soil and mulch. This also allowed us to backfill the garden with a local landscape companies Mushroom compost soil. (http://www.shenandoahsand.com/compost.htm) This compost is the key to how well our garden has taken off! We tilled the compost in w/our existing awful Virginia red clay soil. When we marked the area for our vegetable garden we decided to build a small fence around it to keep out the bunny rabbits (and our mini dachshunds)! So far it seems to be working. Our HOA won't allow a large deer fence but so far no problems. I weed regularly and we water every day we don't have rain. Our garden has really taken off and size of some of the plants amazes me. Why Mushroom Compost? Mushroom Compost is a totally organic, dark, rich, moist mixture of wheat straw, peat moss, cottonseed meal, cottonseed hulls, corncobs, cocoa bean shells, gypsum, lime, chicken litter, and /or horse stable bedding. This combination of ingredients is used in commercial mushroom farms to grow mushrooms. These materials are composted for many weeks and then placed into a huge room, where it is completely sterilized. After the sterilization is complete, the compost is then placed into growing trays, where the mushroom growing cycle begins. Strangely enough, mushrooms can only be grown in this mixture for a short period of time. At this time the compost has to be removed. Not because it is nutritionally depleted, but because the growing environment is very dark and moist and could be subject to invasion by fungi and bacteria. This could be devastating to the mushroom farm. After 18-20 days, the compost is removed, and a brand new batch is prepared for the next crop. The mushroom compost is loaded from the growing trays directly into huge trucks and then shipped. It never touches the ground until it arrives at their facility.
What are you most proud of? I am very proud of my design. I spent a lot of time researching companion plantings. I am even more proud of how well the plants are doing! Everything is HUGE and happily growing.
These photos are from May 22 (week 1) up to June 8. I need to add updated photos of the garden today to show how HUGE the plantings have become.

Several routines that can be used to remove quotes from the contents of a variable.
In the majority of cases running any current version of Windows, the simplest method is to use %~1 Parameter Extensions to remove the quotes automatically
@ECHO OFF Set _string=%~1 Echo the string passed to this script is %_string%
(you may also want to test IF the variable is empty/NULL)
This is equivalent to the following, which can be used to remove quotes from any string, not just a parameter string:
:: Remove quotes SET _string=###%_string%### SET _string=%_string:"###=% SET _string=%_string:###"=% SET _string=%_string:###=%
An alternative one line function, uses a FOR command to run parameter expansion and remove quotes (the %~A removes the quotes), this is a good approach when you need to dequote multiple strings, just call the function with each string:
::::::::: one line Dequote example ::::::::::::
@Echo Off
Set _mypath="C:\Program Files\ss64\"
CALL :dequote _mypath
Echo %_mypath%
Goto :eof
for /f "delims=" %%A in ('echo %%%1%%') do set %1=%%~A
Goto :eof
The above will turn "C:\Program Files\ss64\" into C:\Program Files\ss64\
If the line in bold is saved as a single line batch file DeQuote.cmd, then it can be called from other batch scripts CALL DeQuote.cmd VariableName
There are a couple of edge cases where all the methods above will fail: if the string does not both begin and end with a quote, or if the string begins with two quotes ""demo"
The more complex scripts below allow you to handle these cases, or at least handle them more gracefully. Only accepting strings that both begin and end with a double quote, will make the script more robust against erroneous user input.
::::::::: DeQuote for NT 4/ XP or greater :::::::::::: @ECHO OFF :DeQuote SET DeQuote.Variable=%1 CALL Set DeQuote.Contents=%%%DeQuote.Variable%%% echo:%DeQuote.Contents%|FindStr/brv ""^">NUL:&&Goto :EOF echo:%DeQuote.Contents%|FindStr/erv ""^">NUL:&&Goto :EOF Set DeQuote.Contents=####%DeQuote.Contents%#### Set DeQuote.Contents=%DeQuote.Contents:####"=% Set DeQuote.Contents=%DeQuote.Contents:"####=% Set %DeQuote.Variable%=%DeQuote.Contents% Set DeQuote.Variable= Set DeQuote.Contents= Goto :EOF :: Written by Frank P. Westlake, 2001.09.22, 2001.09.24 :: Modified by Simon Sheppard 2002.06.09 ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
An alternative version of DeQuote (for Windows XP or later) when used with EnableDelayedExpansion by Nicholi
::::::::: Dequote for Win XP or greater :::::::::::: @ECHO OFF SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION :DeQuote FOR %%G IN (%*) DO ( SET DeQuote.Variable=%%G CALL SET DeQuote.Contents=%%!DeQuote.Variable!%% IF [!DeQuote.Contents:~0^,1!]==[^"] ( IF [!DeQuote.Contents:~-1!]==[^"] ( SET DeQuote.Contents=!DeQuote.Contents:~1,-1! ) ELSE (GOTO :EOF no end quote) ) ELSE (GOTO :EOF no beginning quote) SET !DeQuote.Variable!=!DeQuote.Contents!

Former Rep. Betsy Markey will return to Washington to work for the federal government, this time with the Department of Homeland Security.
"I'll certainly miss Colorado. I know I'll always come back because Colorado's my home," she said. "It will be a little adjustment for my family but my children are grown now. It's a good opportunity."
The Fort Collins Democrat will spend the weekend moving back to Washington and start on Tuesday as the assistant secretary for intergovernmental affairs at the Department of Homeland Security.
"Betsy Markey brings more than 30 years of experience in public service and the private sector to her new role at the Department of Homeland Security, and will be a valuable asset in leading our efforts to engage closely with state, local and tribal governments across the United States to carry out all aspects of our complex mission," Department of Homeland Security spokesman Adam Fetcher said in an e-mail.
Markey became the first Democrat to represent the 4th Congressional District in more than 30 years when she beat Republican incumbent Marilyn Musgrave in 2008. She represented the district, which includes Weld County, for one term before losing to Republican Cory Gardner in November.
Markey has been involved in government in one role or another for 30 years. She worked for the U.S. Customs Service, which is now a part of Homeland Security, and then for the U.S. Department of State's Office of Information Systems Security. She also worked for the State Department and served as a regional director for Sen. Ken Salazar before running for Congress.
She said she's looking forward to the new position.
"It suits my past experience in federal government," she said. "I'm glad to be back in federal service."

A sometimes stinging Venice Biennale
Venice, Italy — Every two years, this ancient and liquidy city is deluged by the art world, making it seem more unreal than it already is. Curators, collectors, critics and artists cram onto the Venetian islands for a three-day preview of what is effectively the Olympics of art, the Venice Biennale.
Attired like something out of "The Talented Mr. Ripley" – tailored and European and with all of the ingratiating and insinuating implied by that reference – many of the well-heeled dash like 8-year-olds sprinting for Space Mountain when the gates open each day. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

Soulstice Theatre can't find spark in Woody Allen's 'God'
In Woody Allen's movie "Love and Death," Boris (Allen) asks that quintessential Allen question: "What if there is no God?" Ten years later, in "The Purple Rose of Cairo," Mia Farrow's Cecilia answers, in words that would give any actor pause: A world without God, she tells Tom (Jeff Daniels), "would be like a movie with no point, and no happy ending."
Hence, it's no surprise that the dilemma opening "God" — a one-act Allen play written in the same year as "Love and Death" that's now being staged by Soulstice Theatre — involves a playwright named Hepatitis (Tim Kietzman) and an actor named Diabetes (Joe Dolan), struggling to come up with an ending for a play. »Read Full Article

ATI Catalyst 6.10 Performance Analysis
Half Life 2 (Lost Coast)
Version and / or Patch Used: Unpatched
Timedemo or Level Used: Custom Timedemo
Developer Homepage: http://www.valvesoftware.com
Product Homepage: http://www.half-life2.com
By taking the suspense, challenge and visceral charge of the original, and adding startling new realism, responsiveness and new HDR technology, Half-Life 2 Lost Coast opens the door to a world where the player's presence affects everything around him, from the physical environment to the behaviors even the emotions of both friends and enemies.
We benchmark Half Life 2 Lost Coast with our own custom timedemos as to avoid possible driver optimizations using the "record demo_name" command and loading the timedemo with the "timedemo demo_name" command - For a full list of the commands, click here.
Half Life 2 seems to be one of the most sensitive games when it comes to drivers and gets impacted quite often. We can see that the latest release sees the X1900XT lose some performance at the lower resolution.
