Lorraine Courtney: Toddler heels, baby scents. . . when did just letting children be children fall out of vogue?
Published 31/01/2013 | 05:00
'VOGUE' has just announced that it is to launch 'Miss Vogue', a UK edition that will join its American counterpart, 'Teen Vogue', and the Italian 'Vogue Bambini' in Conde Nast's international line-up. Editor Alexandra Shulman said: "We are really excited at the opportunity to create a slightly different 'Vogue' for this readership. I wanted to produce something that would have bespoke content for a younger audience."
The launch has stirred excitement in the fashion industry, but naturally, news of this 124-page glossy has been received with caution by campaigners for body image issues. The British edition of the iconic fashion publication has a strict policy that states it will not use models under the age of 16 on its pages, though whether or not this policy will also be attributed to the new magazine is unknown.
Once upon a time, kids were kids. They wore Startrite shoes and clothes that would withstand the rough and tumble of the sandpit. Now, fashion-fixated five-year-olds have their role model in Suri Cruise with her painted nails, faux-fur jackets and high heels. It's claimed Suri has a wardrobe that's worth more than $3m (€2.2m) that includes designer handbags and one-off commissions. And she has been voted the most influential celebrity child in the world. She has also fuelled a whole trend for high-heeled shoes, with versions for girls as young as three being sold in GapKids, Asda and Next.
There's now a huge fashion industry for children of all ages, so it's little wonder that small children now have problems with body image. In the UK, Mumsnet is running a campaign entitled 'Let Girls Be Girls', where they are asking retailers to agree not to sell products that encourage the premature sexualisation of children. It's a small victory in a cultural trend that treats children as mini adults.
Where does all this madness end? Not in the cradle, apparently. Molton Brown has a range for what it calls "hip infants". Some of the baby products available seem pointless. Both Givenchy and Kiehl's do a baby lip balm. Have you ever seen a baby with chapped lips? Me neither. Possibly some Scandinavian six-month-old who skis. Then there are baby scents.
D&G has just launched a new scent for babies. It has warm floral heart notes of cyclamen, orange blossom, lily of the valley and jasmine. You might think it sounds a tad far-fetched, but according to Stefano Gabbana, the new perfume is "designed to cuddle and pamper every little boy and girl". But babies smell heavenly anyway, so why would you want to mask that with a manufactured scent? Simply because it makes good business sense. Adult fashion might be limping along, but demographics support the sudden interest in infant-led spending.
We can dismiss 'Miss Vogue' as frivolous, over-priced fluff that nobody is going to take seriously. No one, except maybe your pre-teen daughter. She will be getting the message loud and clear that for girls it's the aesthetic, external attributes, the cut of your dress and the quality of your accessories that define you as a person. There is a drip, drip, drip to all this, and it does have a cumulative effect.
The new wave of baby products takes this a step too far. Can we just sleepwalk into a world where this is considered normal?

Next treasurer to be elected in primary
At this point, at least one thing is certain: The office of Kitsap County Treasurer will stay in Democratic hands no matter who is elected to replace retiring Treasurer Sharon Shrader, since there isnt a Republican on the ballot.
After that, the question gets murkier, because both candidates former City of Poulsbo Accounting Manager Paulette Alvarado and Barbara Stephenson, the executive director of the United Way of Kistap County carry with them vast accounting and finance experience, in addition to a long list of ringing endorsements from other elected officials and private citizens.
In the end, both agree, the decision will come down to what type of experience voters value most.
While Alvarados focus has been in the government sector, Stephensons experience centers more on the private and quasi-public sectors.
The voters truly have a choice to make, Stephenson said. They have an opportunity to look at the differences between the two candidates and make a decision. We are very different.
Alvarado agrees.
She points to her 25-year history with the City of Poulsbo, calling herself a hands-on player, a manager who can take on any role in the office when called upon to do so and with a deep understanding of how government banking works.
She is a Certified Municipal Finance Administrator.
The citizens deserve a qualified, experienced government finance officer, Alvarado said. I am qualified for the position.
Stephenson, meanwhile, points to her 11 years with the United Way and her 14 years with the banking industry.
The reality, coming from the private sector, is that you have to manage to the bottom line, she said. Thats truly how it is.
Whoever is elected will have a challenge ahead of her. The Kitsap County commissioners earlier this summer asked all department heads to shave their budgets by 10 percent next year and by an additional 5 percent in 2004 a move that could mean layoffs.
The treasurers office currently has a staff of 14, including the treasurer.
As the executive director of the United Way of Kitsap, Stephenson said she hasnt increased the staff level once in her 11 years.
You look at the budget each year and figure out the most economical way to get the job done, Stephenson said.
Alvarado points again to her government experience.
I was a manager for the accounting department at the City of Poulsbo, Alvarado said. I was a working manager; I was able to step in and do any of the jobs I supervised. The county treasurers office needs someone who can step in at any time. You dont know what youre going to be faced with, with diminishing resources, but citizens deserve good services.
Meanwhile, voters dont have long to make a decision.
The primary election is set for Tuesday, Sept. 17.
But the Kitsap County Auditors Office mailed out 84,887 absentee ballots from Aug. 28 through Aug. 30.
Elections staff members say that 67.8 percent of the 124,745 registered voters in Kitsap County have qualified for absentee ballots.
With the voting deadline fast approaching, Alvarado and Stephenson say theyve pushed ahead with their campaigns.
Theyve posted campaign signs along roadways, attended service organization luncheons and door-belled all up and down the county.
People seem to be please that youre taking the time to give them the information, Stephenson said. And I am happy to have informed and educated the voters.
Alvarado said doorbelling has been a rewarding experience.
Ive received a good reception while Ive been doorbelling, Alvarado said. The citizens seem to be really glad to be face-to-face with a candidate and put a face to a name.
Alvarado has never before sought a public office, but opted to pursue the elected position of county treasurer, retiring from her post at Poulsbo City Hall in July. She opted to run after state Treasurer Michael Murphy encouraged her to do so.
Alvarado has Murphys endorsement, as well as the endorsements of retiring County Treasurer Sharon Shrader, Port Orchard Treasurer Kristene Tompkins, Poulsbo Finance Director Donna Bjorkman and Kitsap County budget manager Rich Hanna, to name a few.
Stephenson, on the other hand, has sought and secured a public office once before.
She secured a position on the Kitsap County Board of Freeholders more than a year ago the board that crafted the proposed charter for Kitsap County.
The charter failed to pass in February.
It was from this overall experience, said Stephenson, that she learned the nuts and bolts of government practice and, during that time, learned that Shrader intended to retire.
It was a natural progression, Stephenson said. I have been taking care of other peoples money for 25 years.
She soon learned that she had backing, as well.
Stephenson is also being endorsed by Poulsbo Mayor Donna Jean Bruce, former Poulsbo Mayor Mitch Mitchusson, Kitsap County Assessor Jim Avery, Kitsap County Prosecutor Russ Hauge and Billie Eder, a former county commissioner and county treasurer.
I truly believe experience counts and I have a demonstrated record of leadership and commitment to Kitsap County, Stephenson said.
I really do have all the qualifications, Alvarado said. And thats important. I am trained in the rules and regulations in state and national accounting levels as a government finance officer.

One of the things I learned about emergency finances recently is that you really have to be on your guard against a fleecing. The bottom line is that companies that respond to your distress call in a time of need are businesses, and they are likely to act in their interest, and press all sorts of services — and their attendant costs — on you in your time of stress. We discovered this the hard way when our crawl space flooded and overflowed into our downstairs. We called a cleaning and restoration company to suck the water out, and found a few unexpected surprises along the way:
- They sprayed "anti-microbial" solution without giving us the option to decline. They just told us they'd done it. This ended up costing right around $170.
- They pulled up the carpet and removed the pad, but no one would tell us how much it would cost. They spoke as if it was part of some sort of package. This ended up costing pretty close to $300.
- They left air movers and a de-humidifier, but it took two days before someone would tell us how much the rental cost was on these items. This ended up costing $25/day for each air mover, and $68/day for the de-humidifier. When we found out the cost, we had some of the air movers pulled (we just moved one around) and rented a de-humidifier from a cheaper rental company.
- They arranged for a plumber to come, as well as someone to replace the carpet pad and re-lay the carpet. But didn't tell us how much those services would cost — in spite of several attempts to find out. The carpet re-lay and pad ended up costing $445 (between $145 and $265 more than some of the quotes we got after the fact). After all this, we insisted that the plumber's bill come directly to us, rather than going through the cleaning and restoration company and getting the mark-up they charge for making a phone call.
In fact, the whole time, we felt as though we were unable to make informed decisions about anything. We called the office multiple times, since the guys "in the field" weren't authorized to "estimate" costs. They didn't even tell us whether we would be charged by the hour or by the square foot. When we called the office to ask about charges, we were finally told (after more than one questioning phone call) that we would be charged by the square foot, but no one told what the cost for each service would be per square foot.
On top of all this, we were still charged full price for the water removal from the crawl space — even though the crew left before the job was done. The plumber actually had to remove about an inch and a half of water, so we ended up paying for that water removal. When we finally (after two weeks and multiple phone calls; the web site promises estimates within 48 hours) received an itemized invoice, we were not happy. I made a note of the issues — especially not being able to decline some services (like the anti-microbial spray) before they were carried out, as well as dissatisfaction that no-one would tell us how much services would cost.
I pointed out that they could have told us the cost per square foot of services, since that information was available to them. I made it clear that we would have declined the anti-microbial had I even been given the option, and that if I had know the square-foot cost of the pad removal and carpet lifting, we would have stopped the guys on service call when they began (without asking us) performing these actions. I pointed out my disappointment that they didn't finish sucking out the water, and we then had to pay the plumber on top of it to finish the job so that we could get a sump pump installed.
After I explained my trouble and disappointment, they did knock off $300. I'm glad I have an emergency fund, and that I'm financially ready for this coming year. But, am I totally satisfied? No. Will I be calling Alpine Cleaning and Restoration to do anything for me again? No. And next time something like this happens, I will be very explicit in telling the cleaning and restoration company that the only thing I want done is the water sucked out. All of it. We can do the rest of the stuff, or call around for other services, on our own.

Product Description
Is there a situation in your life that needs God's divine intervention? What if God spoke into that place and brought the peace, resolution, and outcome you've hoped for? Do we dare believe that God can speak into our lives powerfully? Tangibly?
Jesus did this. During his earthly ministry He healed the sick, opened the eyes of the blind and even raised the dead. What if He could do these things today?
In The Grave Robber, Mark Batterson explores the seven miraculous signs of Jesus found in the Gospel of John. Beginning with the wedding at Cana and ending with the resurrection of Lazarus, Batterson takes a closer look at each of these moments, sharing inspiring stories of God's movement today, and pointing out everyday miracles big and small that often go unnoticed. Don't be mistaken, this isn't a book about seeking miracles for the sake of miracles. Batterson wants to draw you closer to Jesus, the source of our salvation, and the reason for our hope.

Publisher's Description
"There are miracles all around us all the time," says Mark Batterson, "but you won't see them if you don't know how to look for them."
Now the bestselling author of The Circle Maker reveals the incredible power of the seven miraculous signs of Jesus found in the Gospel of John. Batterson shows how they were not simply something Jesus did in the past, but something he wants to do now, in the present. He shares true stories of people today who are experiencing miracles in their lives. And he brings to light countless miracles, big and small, that we take for granted every day that point us toward the One who healed the sick, calmed the storm, and yes, even raised the dead.
But this is more than a book about miracles. It's a book about the only One who can perform them. Batterson cautions readers, "Don't just seek miracles. Seek Jesus. And if you seek Jesus, miracles will find you."
Nothing has changed since Jesus called Lazarus out of his tomb four days after his funeral. Our impossible situations still double as God's greatest opportunity to reveal his glory. No matter how big the problem is, God is bigger still. Anyone who longs to see God work in miraculous ways today will love Batterson's faith-building, life-giving message.

Mr. Batterson brings to life the 7 miracles in the book of John by Jesus Christ. Not only does he brings it to life but he breaks it down in layman's terms to where you can actually see the miracles happening in 3D. Well at least I did. Now I just don't see just another miracle by Jesus just in the bible. I see miracles become reality in my every day experience. All things are possible if we would only believe.....

Why do we need to flip the kernel in 2D convolution in the first place? What's the benefit of this? So, why can't we leave it unflipped? What kind of terrible thing can happen if you don't flip it?
SEE: "First, flip the kernel, which is the shaded box, in both horizontal and vertical direction"
It's not meant to be a "benefit" or to avoid disastrous consequences. It's meant to be a definition. If you don't flip, then you violate the agreed upon definition of convolution. Convolution without the flip has a name of its own: correlation.
What motivated people to define convolution with a flip? Well in 1D, it means, for example that the convolution of causal signals will also be causal. Also, when you flip, then the convolution with an impulse response function of a system gives you the response of that system. If you don't flip, the response comes out backwards.
Why do the same in 2D? Using a different definition in 2D would make it inconsistent with 1D.
The time to flip in so miniscule it's inconsequential. If you go through the theory (linear systems theory) you'll understand. If you want to understand the causality, imagine a filter that's a right triangle, with the small pointy end on the left and the steep edge on the right. Now shift that past a delta function. If you don't flip and just start shifting your filter past it will hit the tall steep edge first and then ramp down. So then your response is opposite to your filter, but they must be the same if it's a delta function. Basically it's because time goes along the x axis with the small time values on the left and the big (later) time values on the right. So if you start shifting in, you're having the big time values hit your signal first, which is not right (causal). So you have to flip it to make the small time values shift in first. Not sure if that's such a great explanation but it's what I offer just off the top of my head.
I can't image the response coming out backwards as a result of this...
Try it (with an asymmetric impulse response).
"convolution of causal signals will also be causal" <- yeah, so, why is that important???
It's just consistent with other things in linear systems theory. We know that the response of a causal system to a causal signal is supposed to be causal (by definition of a causal system). We also know that the response is supposed to be the convolution of the impulse response with that signal. For both to be true simultaneously, convolution must preserve causality.
And btw. didn't 'the flip' had something to do with the Fourier transforms?
That's another good way to make sense of the flip. If you multiply two spectra together and then apply an inverse Fourier transform, you will get the convolution (defined with flip) of the IFTs of the respective spectra.
very good explaination
It doesn't need to be flipped, at least not by you. You pass in the array and the flipping is done internally, automatically, because that's the definition of convolution. If it didn't flip, it would be correlation, not convolution. If you flipped it before passing it into conv2(), then you'd be doing a correlation instead of a convolution because the internal flip in counteracted by your advance manual flip. If you want, you can use imfilter() or xcorr2() which do no flip internally.

Baby of a human or animals are same because they are so cute and lovely. Cuteness is usually characterized by some combination of infant-like physical traits, especially small body size with a disproportionately large head, large eyes, and round and softer body features. Infantile personality traits, such as playfulness, fragility, helplessness, curiosity, innocence, affectionate behavior, and a need to be nurtured are also generally considered cute. To those who are living in the concrete jungle, we have collected the following cute animals, hoping they could bring you a good mood and maybe, remind you of the wild world. Intellectual honesty. Intellectual honesty is an applied method of problem solving in academia, characterized by an unbiased, honest attitude, which can be demonstrated in a number of different ways, including but not limited to: One's personal beliefs do not interfere with the pursuit of truth;Relevant facts and information are not purposefully omitted even when such things may contradict one's hypothesis;Facts are presented in an unbiased manner, and not twisted to give misleading impressions or to support one view over another;References, or earlier work, are acknowledged where possible, and plagiarism is avoided.
Harvard ethicist Louis M. Guenin describes the "kernel" of intellectual honesty to be "a virtuous disposition to eschew deception when given an incentive for deception.

Product Homepage:http://crystalmark.info/software/CrystalDiskMark/index-e.html
Download here:http://crystaldew.info/category/software/crystaldiskmark
CrystalDiskMark is a disk benchmark software.
Key Features:-
* Sequential reads/writes
* Random 4KB/512KB reads/writes
* Text copy
* Change dialog design
* internationalization (i18n)
Note: Crystal Disk Mark 3.0 is not available to the public yet, but the Technical Preview does allow us to test 4K performance at queue depths of 4 and 32 in addition to 1. The current release Crystal Disk Mark only shows us QD 1.
In CDM we get to look at the 4K and queue depth performance. This is one area that I thought the new 3.5" design would start to pull away from the 2.5" model, but it looks like I was wrong. For the most part both drives run nearly identical when measured at the same 120GB capacity.
Keeping with the theme so far, the OCZ Vertex 2 3.5" drive also matches the 2.5" model in 4K write speeds at depth. Let's get to the real world tests and see what happens there.

Disc 1 covers the concepts of Balance Sheet vs. Income Statement Affluence, the Sticky Forces of Class Mindsets, and the Rules of Money.

In June it will be one year since I got rid of my rubbish bin. One year since I started my journey towards zero waste living. One year since I sent anything to landfill.
It requires a little forward planning, but it's not impossible. And what an education. An education in how much waste we generate. In how unclear we've become about the difference between want versus need. How driven we are by consumerism.
An education in that no matter how educated we are we put convenience before the health of our planet, and in turn ourselves, our future and the future of our children.
When I first read this post to Noah he looked at me rather solemnly, gave me a hug and said, 'Thank you for caring so much'. Bless. But really, how could I not? Michael Jackson and a whole bunch of his friends got together and sang 'We are the world' to me (and a few million others) when I was just 6 and let's not forget that other upbeat tune from back then 'Don't kill the world' by Boney M. It's not like I haven't had time to get my shit together.
It's not like I haven't been warned.
We have a limited number of years of landfill left. This simple truth should scare the bejesus out of anyone. I have no desire to live on a pile of waste. And even less desire to have that be the legacy I leave my son.
So this is what I've been doing.
I compost. It was a bit of a challenge initially as I live in a small apartment and have no garden but I did a little research and now I put my compost waste in a bucket (treat it with a little Bokashi from time to time) and when it's full I take it to a local urban farm in exchange for an empty bucket. Before that I had discovered a group on Facebook asking for these kind of food bits for their worm farms, pet rabbits, etc, so it just requires a little digging around to find what the best solution is for your particular circumstances.
I say no to plastic. I take my own shopping bags when I buy groceries. I have a bread bag. I buy fruit & veg that hasn't been packaged and will only buy packaged if absolutely necessary. ( You have no idea how long it's been since I bought a cucumber. Why do they have to be wrapped??) I purchase glass before plastic. I take jars to Fruit & Veg to buy nuts and dried fruit. I'll only purchase plastic that is not recyclable in extreme cases. And usually this is only the case when purchasing cheese. While I am vegan my son is not. He dapples in vegetarianism but that particular adventure is another blog post altogether.
No single use items. (Is it true that the guy that invented coffee pods killed himself?). No straws. I carry napkins everywhere. Jars for take away smoothies or drinks. My own containers or napkins if ordering take out. I make my own toothpaste and Noah and I both have bamboo toothbrushes. I use my leftover coffee grounds as body scrub and oil cleanse my face with products from the kitchen. I've replaced tampons with a mooncup.
I recycle.
Most of my clothes are second hand but that's nothing new. I've always loved items that have already lived a story, be it clothing or furniture. Some things I buy new. Like underwear. And shoes. But then I start paying careful attention to where those items were made.
I don't always win.
Till slips can not be recycled. The fruit and veg that I buy loose and rescue from being packed in those horrible, non-reclyable thin see-through bags never escape the savage indoctrination of those price stickers. Also not recyclable. Cling wrap. Not reclyable. The foil sachets housing the medication that I have to take for another three months – not reclyable. The baking paper from my previous 'not zero waste' life – not recylcable. The wax sheet that was glued to the adhesive paper that Noah had to wrap his school books in – not recyclable. My hair. Dental floss.
For these items I use empty plastic 2l bottles (the irony). I stuff as much of the above into these bottles as is humanly possible and then they get used as Eco Bricks to build educational facilities in South Africa. They said to keep the contents plastic so I'm guessing they wouldn't be that excited about human hair and stickers in their bottles so I've put those things in a separate container and will be burning them at a friend's place soon.( Along with a pizza box or two:/) I have to admit though that they may find some floss and maybe some foil in my bricks but I'm hoping they'll let this slide.
Burning stuff is not ideal. And I recycle a lot more than I'd like. So I'll be increasing my efforts. But I've sent nothing to landfill in nearly a year. And that feels good.
Can't stop.
Won't stop.

10 Buildings That Changed America Series and Curriculum
Posted by
A PBS documentary and multiplatform initiative, 10 Buildings That Changed America explores ten influential American buildings that changed the way we live, work, and play.
The PBS television special, 10 Buildings that Changed America, can be used as an interdisciplinary teaching tool for grades 6-12. Students can explore the history of a place and shape its future through their own designs, test structural design ideas and create scale drawings of your architectural ideas with lesson plans designed support academic standards in the core subjects of English Language Arts, Social Studies, Art, Mathematics, and Science.
PBS SoCaL was involved with the 10 Buildings That Changed America initiative on-air, online, and on the ground engaging the community. In May, PBS SoCaL hosted a sneak peak of 10 Buildings That Changed America at the Richard J. Riordan Central Library. We were fortunate enough to be joined by Frank Gehry, renowned architect featured in the documentary and mastermind behind the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles; Dana Hutt, Architectural Historian; and Michael Webb, Architectural Writer; for a lively panel discussion following the screening. In addition, Dan Protess, Producer and Writer for 10 Buildings That Changed America, introduced the documentary, and Geoffrey Baer, Host and Supervising Producer of the documentary, moderated the panel discussion.
Check out our web-exclusive video highlighting the night in the PBS SoCaL Extras.

Local funding to PBS SoCaL for this outreach initiative has been provided through a grant from the Corporation of Public Broadcasting and WTTW. Special thanks to the Los Angeles Public Library for their partnership on this event. National major funding for 10 Buildings that Changed America is provided by The Negaunee Foundation, ITW, Robert & Joan Clifford, and BMO Harris Bank.

It would be nice to see a sharp, funny, penetrating satire of the new, kicked-up culture of empty media fame, but Tom DiCillo's scattershot buddy movie Delirious isn't it.
Owen Gleiberman - Entertainment Weekly
Tom DiCillo's angry comedy Delirious subjects modern celebrity culture to a microscopic examination that shows the toxic virus of fame squirming under its lens.
Stephen Holden - New York Times
Someday, far in the future, a team of archeologists will dig up the black, wizened, still beating heart of New York City, and it will look exactly like Steve Buscemi.
Ty Burr - Boston Globe
Tom DiCillo's Delirious is a mild Midnight Cowboy, a minor King of Comedy, and mainly a vehicle for Steve Buscemi as a lower Manhattan-based paparazzo.
J. Hoberman - Village Voice
In the end, I don't know that Delirious has all that much to say about the fame game, but you'll laugh nonetheless.
Jack Mathews - New York Daily News
The movie is exhilarating in a way that only hard-won knowledge of the world can be.
David Denby - New Yorker
Delirious, by writer-director Tom DiCillo, has a special quality because it does not make paparazzi a target but a subject.
Roger Ebert - Chicago Sun-Times
...it depends so consistently on plot contrivances and other movies (The King of Comedy,Midnight Cowboy, even All About Eve) that it often comes across as wannabe muckraking.
Jonathan Rosenbaum - Chicago Reader
Tom DiCillo's Delirious, from his own screenplay, presents a paparazzo's worm's-eye view of the ridiculous world of celebrity culture.
Andrew Sarris - New York Observer
A high-energy rags-to-riches satire about a deranged New York paparazzo and a wannabe thesp, Delirious is hilarious.
Jonathan Holland - Variety
Despite some plot holes, Delirious hits the bull's-eye with razor-sharp performances and dialogue.
Lou Lumenick - New York Post
For all its time-worn situations and observations, Delirious has a truth or two to impart about our lust for celebrities.
Roger Moore - Orlando Sentinel
DiCillo's themes are loyalty and friendship and betrayal and redemption.
Jonathan F. Richards - Film.com
Delirious, is among DiCillo's best, and returns to the central theme of his career: the elusive and destructive nature of fame.
Andrew O'Hehir - Salon.com
No one is spared in this whip-smart comedy about the entertainment industry.
Sura Wood - Hollywood Reporter
Buscemi makes this pathetic and potentially lethal shutterbug a figure of surprising humor and compassion.
Peter Travers - Rolling Stone
It's an achingly funny film that is also a little sad around the edges.
Kevin Crust - Los Angeles Times
David Fear - Time Out
Cliff Doerksen - Time Out
Steve Buscemi and Michael Pitt are easily the best odd couple the movies have seen since Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon.
Beverly Berning - culturevulture.net
Leaves us with the same old familiar and empty Hollywood storyline on the world of celebrity culture.
Dennis Schwartz - Ozus' World Movie Reviews
It's not as sharp as his indie gems from the mid-1990s, but the thing's packed with bright performances and unique characters, which is what DiCillo does best.
David Cornelius - eFilmCritic.com
The film isn't as broadly funny as the previous DiCillo-Buscemi collaboration Living in Oblivion, but its outsiders peering in have an uncomfortable resonance.
Jesse Hassenger - Filmcritic.com
DiCillo hasn't lost his gift for artfully skewering both those basking in fame's spotlight and those lurking in the shadows, while still finding a measure of affection for all of them.
Rob Thomas - Capital Times (Madison, WI)
Dean Essner - Sydney Morning Herald
A victim of its own vitriol.
Eric Kohn - Orlando Weekly
This satirical comedy is a connoisseur's delight, with Steve Buscemi in top form as the runt of a paparazzo who tries to exploit a homeless young man.
Urban Cinefile Critics - Urban Cinefile
Mature paparazzi drama isn't quite in focus.
S. Jhoanna Robledo - Common Sense Media
Dean Essner - St. Louis Post-Dispatch
As always, Buscemi masters his portrayal of needy desperation, but he still makes Les admirable for his capacity to go with the flow.
Jeff Shannon - Seattle Times
DiCillo is ultimately grounded in the eccentric, awkward relationship
Sean Axmaker - Seattle Post-Intelligencer
With Delirious, writer-director Tom DiCillo has crafted a wonderfully giddy meditation on the nature of fame, the people who sell it and those doing the buying, and their mutually parasitic dependence on each other.
David Wiegand - San Francisco Chronicle
The movie is a provocative little pleasure, and the gleefully vile Buscemi and dreamy-eyed Pitt make a fine 21st-century odd couple.
Mary F. Pols - Contra Costa Times
The jokes are sparse and predictable, and the storytelling is, too. But Buscemi and Gershon have great fun with their roles, and Pitt is strangely agreeable about the whole thing.
Shawn Levy - Oregonian
DiCillo's spot-on writing -- and the exceptional performances by Buscemi and Pitt -- creates a touching and vivid friendship that stabilizes the film.
Jeffrey M. Anderson - Combustible Celluloid
DiCillo finds comedy in the tragic, depth in the shallowness, and surprises in the cliche
Andrea Chase - Killer Movie Reviews
A great romp with both Steve Buscemi and Michael Pitt having the time of their lives. Especially fun to see Pitt do something completely different.
Ron Wilkinson - Monsters and Critics
A prickly look at the poisonous nature of celebrity and the unsavory subculture it breeds around the edges.
Wade Major - Boxoffice Magazine
DiCillo gets at how celebrity culture can erode a person's dignity and self-worth, and Buscemi's performance strikes just the right note between unctuous bottom-feeder and loveable loser. It's unfortunate that the rest of the movie tends to get too glib.
Scott Tobias - AV Club
There are some hilarious scenes here, and some moments so sad they'll make you wince.
Richard Roeper - Ebert & Roeper
A lark, a fairy tale, a tantalizing mix between John Scheslinger's much darker Midnight Cowboy and John Water's ultra sweet Pecker.
Marcy Dermansky - About.com
At once chaotic, moody, outrageous, ridiculous and deeply tragic, Delirious reaches way beyond Buscemi's wacko rabbit hole excursion into the fetid, goofy shallow heart of celebrity glitz.
Prairie Miller - Long Island Press
Short, sharp snapshot about celebrity and life on the fringe has nothing new to say, but it says it with considerable charm and affection.
Maitland McDonagh - TV Guide's Movie Guide
Delirious is a funny, insightful, entertaining poke at celebrity culture that lands quite a few notches above the typical, New York-set ensemble indie.
Gary Goldstein - Reel.com
The caricatures of Hollywood sycophants and media scumbags are obvious and painfully unfunny, while the life lessons about friendship feel as if they've been lifted from a Hallmark card. Delirious? Not quite. Delusional? Most definitely.
David Fear - Time Out New York
The film's got some good, amusing moments and, perhaps, an insight or two into hanger-on psychology.
Bob Strauss - Los Angeles Daily News
There's enough retro modern social satire here to support the comical efforts of a talented cast adding layers of emotional nuance. Alison Lohman ("White Oleander") remains a rising star with yet another inspired performance that surprises and charms.
Cole Smithey - ColeSmithey.com
Too many different stories are vying for attention here, and none of them are very good.
Peter Rainer - Christian Science Monitor
Dave White - Movies.com
The prickly camaraderie between Buscemi and Pitt puts Delirious back on track, abetted by a hilarious turn by Gina Gershon.
Jan Stuart - Newsday
The overall, overstressed tone is one of cynical whimsy meant to be incisively hard-hitting, but more often coming off as merely tiresome and abrasive.
David Noh - Film Journal International
Off beat in the best sense of the term; surprisingly successful with a theme that could easily have gone down the gully hole of corn; "Delirious" delivers.
Jules Brenner - Cinema Signals
With Delirious, Tom DiCillo puts our national obsession with fame under the magnifying glass, and what he spies is a bunch of people in desperate need of attention, approval, and friendship.
Nick Schager - Slant Magazine
A poignant satire of the national craze of celeb culture, with a touching buddy tale at its center, well played by Michael Pitt and particularly Steve Buscemi, who dominates every scene he's in.
Emanuel Levy - EmanuelLevy.Com
While Delirious doesn't have the sophistication of DiCillo's Living in Oblivion, nor the biting wit of The Real Blonde, it's still worth a look for those who enjoy the entertainment industry's POV.
Staci Layne Wilson - Buzzine Magazine
One of those savvy, low-budget crowd-pleasers that arrive in local theaters only via film festivals like San Sebastian and Sundance.
Susan Granger - www.susangranger.com
Buscemi again proves himself one of our great character actors in the role of a paparazzo who feels regularly betrayed--by his parents, by the celebrities, and by a homeless kid he helps.
Harvey S. Karten - Compuserve
The story's surprises range from clever to annoying, but [director] DiCillo manages to hold it all together with his consistently amusing cast members, who make you laugh at their characters' self-absorbed folly.
Jeremy Mathews - Film Threat
Just when you're sure you know how Delirious is going to close, DiCillo comes up with a capper that's as satisfying as it is understated.
Scott Weinberg - Cinematical
A joyously raucous, sexy, deliciously biting fable...Delirious is superbly entertaining and completely satisfying
Clint Morris - Moviehole

6 Comments on "Video: Missy Franklin Inspired By Bootsma's Big Swim"
Congrats to Missy. I'm sure she's the only swimmer in the world who can break the world record in the 100 back. Because of NBC I haven't watched her race and I don't know how were here underwaters. But she's so good between the two walls. I still hope she doesn't swim the 200 free to focus on the 100 back. It would be a pity to kill chances of a gold medal in the 100 back at the next olympic games. I hope she will take the right decision after the trials.
Missy is the real deal here !!! Hope she swims well the 200 free and shows what she has in the tank !
I totally agree!
I am even predicting Missy to win 200 free in London, beating Muffat and Schmitt
Don't you worry about Missy.
I predict she can still swim 58.7-58.8 even after the 200 free 20 mins beforehand.
I believe Missy is also the only swimmer in the world who can break Pellegrini's WR, if she focuses only on 100-200 free. That's how good she is.
I agree with you most of the time but here not about the schedule of Missy Franklin. I'm not a swimmer but I think when you swim 1.56 in the 200 free 20 minutes before the 100 back your legs are killed. I know she's giant but it's a big disadvantage over her opponents. Not specifically in these trials but I talk about the olympic games. How can you beat Emily Seebohm or Anastasia Zueva who will be fresh if you have this big disadvantage? I say that just because the gold medal would for her in the 100 back and because Camille Muffat from my country is unbeatable in the 200 free. For me it's a bad choice but perhaps she'll prove me the opposite.

Independence Day Parade in Greeley part of family tradition (video)
July 7, 2014
Stampede mascots
Many were delighted to see the Texas longhorns back again at the Independence Day Parade after a short hiatus several years ago.
What parade-goers may not know is that among them were semi-famous longhorns that serve to represent the parade.
Bucky and Bertha, the Stampede longhorns, regularly help promote the Stampede during the year at school functions, parades and Greeley Chamber of Commerce events.
During the Stampede, they can be found at the daily parade in the park, at mutton bustin' or at the demolition derby.
Vonda Rhodes and Vicki Steiner are parade pros in the know.
For more than 30 years, the Greeley native sisters have reserved a patch of land to view the Greeley Stampede's Independence Day Parade from a shady sweet spot near Gunter Hall on the University of Northern Colorado campus.
But as thousands of families, couples and kids donning patriotic skirts, hats and bandannas flocked to 10th Avenue to view the parade on Friday morning, Rhodes and Steiner found their spot — marked with specially made stakes, red, white and blue rope, and little American flags — had been pilfered.
The pair, joined by a daughter, grandson and coworkers, found another shady spot farther north, and they said they wouldn't let the loss of their regular spot dampen their spirits this Independence Day.
"We're doing fine down here," Steiner said, her headband with two antennas covered with red, white and blue tinsel moving as she nodded her head.
The sisters, 59 and 56, have a Fourth of July kit, complete with headbands (Rhodes' had a red fabric star that protruded from the band, and Steiner's baby grandson wore one with little plastic windmills), and patriotic beads. Rhodes and Steiner said they had a smaller crowd this year because some family is out of town.
"We still set up like we're going to have 20 people," Steiner said amidst the jovial pre-parade chatter on 10th Avenue.
She said it's for the best, just in case some friends would like to join the party, who Steiner said text her to ask if she is at the parade — like it's even a question.
"Of course we are going to go," she said.
Added Rhodes, "They think it's going to change — it's not."
"We already told our kids that even if we are too old to remember, they need to drag our wheelchairs up to the parade," Rhodes laughed.
At the opposite end of the parade on 5th Street, floats, marching bands and baton twirlers scattered from their linear route and headed for home, but not before Arturo Trejo caught a couple photos on his phone.
Unlike Rhodes and Steiner, who staked out their spot for the parade on June 23, the chuckwagons and women dressed in period clothes caught Trejo by surprise.
Trejo, who is from Zacatecas, Mexico, said he has only been in Greeley for about a month. But it wasn't his first Fourth of July — a holiday Trejo said he thoroughly enjoys. Apart from enjoying a day off from work, Trejo said he planned to get together with some friends later and cook up some carne asada — some barbecue.
"It's what everybody in the U.S. does," he said with a smile.
In between the beginning and end of the parade route were throngs of patriotic people ready to catch a glimpse of beloved parade favorites such as the flyover and Texas longhorns, including the likes of Dennis and Maria Puchalski, 62 and 64, who have been coming to the parade for 29 years.
"I think we like the marching bands the best," said Dennis, who wore his annual outfit of an American flag top hat and vest. "There's not too many of them any more, but the marching bands are so traditional for the parade, that's the main thing."
"We like those the best and the politicians the least," Dennis said, tongue-in-cheek.
Meanwhile, 23-year-old Kenny Grady of Denver watched the Greeley parade for the first time as he pushed a merchandise cart with flags, umbrellas and blow-up figures.
"I like what I have seen so far," said Grady, who said he worked on Friday so he could start saving money for his son's college education.
Darlene and Ernie Mirelez of Brighton kept cool at the parade in lawn chairs under the shade of a UNC building on Friday.
In addition to the flyover of several aircraft, the Mirelezes said they look forward to celebrating their freedom and recognizing the sacrifices that were made to get it.
The Fourth of July, Darlene said, means remembering that.
