The Grand Hotel
I smiled as I sang along with the radio, dancing and drumming on the steering wheel. My windows were open, and the wind off the bay whipped my hair around, stinging my face. It was dark here, and there weren't any streetlights until the Grand Hotel. I was reminded of Jack, as I mused. He was so cute, and his scar was so sexy. We talked whenever I was there, watching my brother as he and his friends played in the hotel pool. I was almost there. Ah, and then the curve! I laughed aloud. I loved hitting turns, feeling the force of acceleration pulling on me. My legs jittered slightly from caffeine. I shouldn't drink such strong coffee, I thought, giggling. I was driving home from Coffee Loft, where I had met some friends for a few hours and had coffee. Not going to sleep tonight.
I turned off my high-beams as soon as I saw the glow from the hotel lights. Abruptly rounding a bend, I was dazzled by the rows of lighted rooms, and all the reflections glittering on the water surrounding the old buildings. I looked out over the water and took my foot off the gas, coasting. Mobile glinted from across the bay. Everything was peaceful, complete, and alive.
Without warning, my vision went black, and I braked hard. The sudden darkness lasted only a split second, and the dancing lights twinkled once more. Odd. That must have been another blackout. Weird that it got Mobile, too. I'll be sure to look for it in the paper tomorrow. Since my car had come to almost a complete stop, I pulled into the small marina parking lot and got out, inhaling sharply; it was so cold. I walked along the docked sailboats, and into the covered bridge. It was much warmer, shielding me from the biting gusts. I sat down and leaned my head against the wood, listening to the wind.
When I opened my eyes, it was light, but as I left my shelter, I saw the sun was setting. Have I been here that long? I began to run toward my car; my parents would have no idea where I was! I was supposed to be back home almost twenty-four hours before!
I reached the spot where I had left my Impala, but it was gone. Oh, God, they've towed my car! I had a members' sticker, though! I saw two men, wearing employees' maroon polo shirts, sitting on a bench, apparently in conversation. I waved and called, trying to get their attention. They didn't look. I ran towards them until I was a few yards away. I started to speak, but something stopped me before I could interrupt them.
I inched closer, to hear them."…forty-three years ago today. Drove straight through the curve, hit the hotel gatehouse. Died on impact, they said." My heart sank. Wait, no. "Her car – it was a gold Impala; I still remember it, all smashed up – was flattened. There was no way she could have lived." I swallowed hard. No. "The funny thing was," he continued. I looked down at the keys in my hand, at my picture smiling up from the change-pouch. No. Don't say it. Please don't say it. "The funny thing was, they had the hardest time identifying her body. They never could find her keys, with her ID, you know."
"But did they ever find out who she was? Surely they must have used the license plate or something."
"Oh, yeah. That's exactly what they did. Sweet girl, too. Bright. About to go to college. I used to talk to her sometimes, when work was slow. She hung out by the pool often. Nice girl. Two years younger than me." He looked up from his arthritic hands. A long scar stood out from his wrinkled forehead. Jack? "What was her name? It was something like Brianna, Breanna. Something like that. I called her Bree." No… I reached out, touched his shoulder. He shuddered, pulling his jacket closer around him. "It's a cold night, hmm? Let's go in." The younger man helped him up, and the two left slowly. I watched them as their voices slowly faded into the night.

Prosecution became easier in 1976 with laws that divided rape into several categories and created charges for sex offenses such as touching and fondling. The divisions helped prosecution because before rape -which carried a possible life sentence included such actions as a man forcing intercourse with his girlfriend at a drive-in. The life-sentence would decrease the jury's willingness to convict such a Roessler said. The same suspect now would be charged with second-degree a felony carrying a maximum 20-year sentence.

The 17-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was walking along Easton Lane in Portland, Dorset, after a night out drinking with friends.
He and a 19-year-old man saw a large, metal A-frame sign bearing the words "Site Closed" and placed it in the centre of the southbound carriageway facing oncoming traffic on Easton Lane for "horseplay".
Lucy Breakwell, 21, and her half-sister, Catherine Breakwell, 15, had finished work as restaurant staff at the nearby Riviera Hotel in Weymouth and were on their way home to New Street, Easton, Portland.
Lucy was driving the silver Ford Fiesta along Easton Lane with Catherine in the front seat when she was forced to swerve to avoid the sign, hitting a tree on the opposite side of the road, in the early hours of September 4, 2004.
Both girls suffered serious injuries and were pronounced dead at the scene.
District Judge Roger House ruled there was no case to answer at Weymouth Youth Court yesterday.
Defence counsel Ian Brazier said today: "The question was whether placing the sign was dangerous and quite simply the District Judge ruled it wasn't.
"That was the question upon which the Crown had offered no evidence. We made an application for no case to answer which was successful."
James Dowley, 20, a sound and light technician at the Riviera Hotel, had been driving in tandem with the sisters at the time of the incident.
He said in a statement to the police: "I don't think Lucy probably realised that it was so dangerous to drive so close to the car in front."
The court also heard that Lucy had taken one hand off the steering wheel to wave to Mr Dowley as they negotiated a roundabout and that Mr Dowley had said in the car "F*** me, she's going fast".
Mr Dowley estimated Lucy had been driving at between 70 and 80mph.
He said in his statement to police: "I think this accident happened because of a mixture of speed, lack of concentration and the road sign."
He also said in his statement: "It (the sign) didn't present a problem to me. I saw it and steered round it."
Mr Brazier said today: "The District Judge was making it clear he had to concentrate on the law and whether the defendant had obstructed the highway in such a way as it would be likely to cause a danger to road users.
"He found placing a reflective sign in the road, with 200 yards visibility, under a street light, while it may be other things, was not dangerous.
"A number of people drove round it and saw it at various distances.
"You would have to be not paying any attention at all, or going far too fast to do anything about it, to not avoid the sign."
The 17-year-old and 19-year-old were charged with interfering with traffic equipment endangering road users.
The 19-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, voluntarily attended the police station with his father the day after the crash and pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing, while the 17-year-old had pleaded not guilty.
Mr Brazier said today: "It's the right verdict. The only difficulty now is what happens to (the other defendant) who pleaded guilty some time ago."

20 Years To The Finish Line
Louise Farr
Craig Borten & Melisa Wallack win the Dallas Buyers Club marathon.
Screenwriter Craig Borten remembers the first day of the Dallas Buyers Club shoot. In 2012, on location in Louisiana, Matthew McConaughey emerged from his trailer emaciated, having lost 45 pounds to realistically portray his AIDSstricken character, Ron Woodroof. "Here's to a 10-year pregame," the actor said casually to producer Robbie Brenner, standing nearby. Glancing at Borten, he added: "There's the other 10."
McConaughey's math was off, but he couldn't be blamed for not grasping the time it had taken Borten's script to be in front of the camera. Borten had invested a whopping 20 years, and Brenner had been championing it for 18.
The saga began in 1992 when, fresh out of Syracuse University, Borten first read about Woodroof, whose story was both gritty and emotion-grabbing. In the early days of the AIDS panic that was sweeping the gay community, the homophobic cowboy-electrician-womanizer had been diagnosed with the disease and given 30 days to live. Denied a place in a trial for the promising drug AZT, he began smuggling underground alternative medications into the United States to use and to sell to other desperate sufferers—hence his Dallas Buyers Club organization. Despite his original prognosis, Woodroof would survive for seven years.
Intrigued, Borten interviewed Woodroof, wrote a screenplay about his life, and immediately had it optioned—with Woody Harrelson set to star and Dennis Hopper to direct.
"I love ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances and how they react," says Borten, a lean figure dressed in black, speaking in the swanky United Talent Agency building in Beverly Hills, where an office has been cleared for the interview. "Writing is almost easier when you know that every scene speaks to their survival."
By late 2000, though, no production had come of his script. That's when he met Melisa Wallack and they began writing together. Pixieish in turtleneck, skinny jeans, and thick-soled hipster sneakers, Wallack joins the conversation: "I always found it inspiring that someone with a seventh-grade education would take on an industry—and a government agency—that is so rarely taken on," she says about Woodroof. "It's a lesson that, if you're going to wait, it's never going to happen."
On the other hand, Dallas Buyers Club happened after a near-interminable wait that included three rewrites by other screenwriters and Brad Pitt and Ryan Gosling attached to the project after Harrelson. During this time, Borten fought a successful battle with substance abuse. Finally a "go" project, with McConaughey on board and the Canadian director Jean-Marc Vallée at the helm, the production lost funding a few weeks before shooting was scheduled to begin.
"We were down in New Orleans, and people were being paid with credit cards," Wallack remembers of the days after the money evaporated. "It was like, literally, everyone willing this movie to happen—the actors, the director, us."
Undaunted, Brenner—Relativity Media's president of production— immediately helped orchestrate the $4 million production's new financing, put together by Cassian Elwes, with Nicolas Chartier of Voltage Pictures, and Truth Entertainment. "To me there was no no in the equation," Brenner says by phone. "It was when and how. We had to find somebody to step in, and we did. I was just the one who pushed the rock up the hill and never lost hope."
Skip forward a year to 2013, when Borten and Wallack walked the red carpet at the Toronto International Film Festival, where their movie debuted to strong reviews and immediate awards chatter. At press time, both McConaughey and Jared Leto, who plays Woodroof's transgender fellow AIDS patient Rayon, had won Golden Globes and Borten and Wallack are up for a Writers Guild Award.
"We had been rewritten three times, but what was fantastic is that the draft that was used and bought was our original," Borten says. "There was all this money against all these other writers, but Robbie was, 'No, we just want Craig and Melisa's draft.'"
Louise Farr: Let's start at the beginning. Craig, how did you persuade Ron Woodroof to talk to you after you read about him and his Dallas Buyers Club?
Craig Borten: I just thought, Wow, what an interesting character. I wrote a letter. I called three or four times. I started calling late in the day hoping his secretary had left and he'd answer the phone, and that's exactly what happened. I said, "I'm Craig Borten; I wrote you a letter." He said, "I know who you are. Okay, be here tomorrow." I drove to Dallas from Los Angeles. I slept in a tent in a triple-A park, got there the next day, and met him at the Dallas Buyers Club.
You did 25 hours of interviews? He died a month later. How did his health seem when you talked to him?
Craig Borten: We sat in his office. He was thin, his speech was a little slow, but he was aware, present, engaged, and affable. Very into discussing his life. He was filling me in on all these worlds and situations that were not in the media. When you're dying, there's a lot that you want to do. You become reflective. You want to leave behind some kind of legacy. The Buyers Club gave his life meaning. He was proud of what he did from the point of getting AIDS as opposed to his life before that.
You were fresh out of Syracuse when you wrote Dallas Buyers Club. How did you land that initial option?
Craig Borten: I was in a basketball league with Chris Moore [Goodwill Hunting, American Pie, The Adjustment Bureau]. I used to play with Ben and Matt—Damon and Affleck. I had finished the draft, and Chris was an up-and-coming producer. I said, "Chris, I have this script I just finished. Do you want to read it?" He read it and said, "I'm going to option it from you, give you some money, and we'll develop it." I liked him. So I would go to his office and on one side of the blackboard it would say dallas buyers club, and he would flip the board over, and on the other side it would say good will hunting. He'd meet with me in the morning, and in the afternoon Ben and Matt would come in. So that was my first experience. We went down that road for one year. That was the first script I wrote, and I got paid. It was pretty incredible the first time out.
Dallas Buyers Club was optioned four times over the next eight or nine years. Did you get discouraged?
Craig Borten: I'd always wanted to just make this small little movie, which this ended up being, anyway, but the emotional impact was, How am I going to get there? This is really frustrating. Robbie Brenner had read the first draft I ever wrote, trying to get it set up at Miramax, so it had always had its fans. People saying, "This is an incredible story. This is the perfect antihero." I had people championing me as a writer, people championing this story. They said, "These are difficult stories to come by. Don't lose sight of this. Believe in it and just keep going." And I just kept going.
How did the collaboration with Melisa come about?
Craig Borten: I met her in the latter part of 2000 through a mutual friend. We were working on a book we were adapting for Harrison Ford.
Melisa Wallack: It was love at first sight. We immediately became friends.
Craig Borten: I thought she was a terrific writer. She had great insight. [Dallas Buyers Club] was being optioned yet again, by another producer, and I said that I could use another eye, and if you like it you can rewrite it with me. It had been nine years or so. I'd been through many different producers. Many different drafts.
Melisa, the background I've read about you seems oversimplified. You were a business person in Los Angeles and decided to try screenwriting after you began meeting writers?
Melisa Wallack: Well, I came out here for something completely different. I was an English major at Skidmore, and a lot of my friends were out here writing. I had always been writing short stories, but I never thought professionally that I'd be a writer. It was when I was introduced to the screenplay format that I became interested. A friend of mine dragged me to this class at AFI, and I attended three of them because I was working full time. And then my brother was working at an agency. He suggested I do coverage. He said it was such a good way to learn structure and dialogue— what works and what doesn't—and you can see what's selling and not selling. So I went and did coverage for Roland Emmerich for a year. I learned a lot. When you have to do five [breakdowns] a week and know nothing, it's a good introduction.
How did you tackle the script?
Melisa Wallack: We just sat down and researched and researched. There was no information available when Craig was writing. We had access to eight more years of information, and that made it a lot easier to see what the macro was. Why was Ron fighting? Why did he have to fight? What was the AZT fight about? All these things became apparent. We both decided the script Craig had written was great, but it was dark. It had to have levity. Ron was a very engaging, funny off-the-wall person. That was one of our primary focuses. We can't write a dark, dark movie only about AIDS. We need to speak to something else. What drew people to him? The longer we wrote it, the more we liked Ron. We looked at what we were going to keep and what we were not going to keep. It was a long process.
Craig Borten: We had about a solid year of continual research, continual writing and rewriting. We worked mostly at Melisa's house—in her home office with all of our dogs by our side. Most of the characters were in my original screenplay. We just opened it up and made it better. This world of AZT, and how doctors felt about it, and why drugs get approved. There's so much discovery in writing. The more you're writing, the more you find the nuance.
How did you get along as collaborators?
Melisa Wallack: We have been to therapy a couple of times together. At what point?
Craig Borten: At many points. Who chose the therapist?
Craig Borten: I did. It just happens because you're in this intimate relationship with someone. You spend all of your days together; you're working on intimate material that's emotional. It's the most intimate you can get with another person you're not having sex with. It's a drama, the lead character is dying, and it brings up issues. Melisa's forward with her feelings. She might say, like, "Craig, you're an asshole." And we'd get into it: "This is horrible. I'm leaving. I don't like you anymore. I'm never going to talk to you again." Then you have to come back tomorrow morning at 8.
Melisa Wallack: In retrospect, we can laugh at it, but at the time you're arguing about, "This character, he would not say that." Which is hilarious in and Of itself because the person is dead and we have no idea what he would be saying.
Tell us about the decision to make Jared Leto's character, Rayon, transgender?
Craig Borten: What we discovered was that we wanted to service this unlikely friendship between Ron and Rayon and let that be the emotional throughline. They're both outcasts now in the world, and how do they come together? We just thought this is a great way to put it in Ron's face, to make him face his own fears. He can't look away. Then at the end of, I think it was around a year, we got Brad Pitt and a big director, Marc Forster, who Robbie went to NYU film school with. The script was optioned in 2002 by Universal Studios, which then purchased it. It was a big deal. The negotiations were crazy.
Melisa Wallack: As our friend Rashida Jones always says, "Congratudolences."
Craig Borten: There was a seven-year reversion clause that Melisa and I fought for—very hard, actually. It was a big point of our negotiation, which is why, seven years later, the rights reverted back to the writers by WGA bylaws. We gave it to Robbie, and then Robbie got it to Matthew and Jean-Marc. I feel Matthew was this film's champion. Without his passion for the script and the great risk he took, we never would have gotten to the finish line. Three and a half weeks out, and we had no money, and Matthew had lost 45 pounds. Matthew said, "This is a moving train, and I've got to get on it. I cannot keep this weight off, and it's got to be shot now."
Melisa Wallack: The inspiring part for any writer with Buyers Club is that both of us would see it slipping away. And as the months ticked by, it would start reversing, and we would be thinking, It's getting closer to the seven years. Then when we got it out, we didn't even read the other [writers'] drafts.
Craig Borten [eating an office candy]: What's inspiring?
Melisa Wallack: You've had way too much sugar. You need to calm down. No one said this movie was going to get made. We'd been turned down by 95 percent of the financiers: "AIDS is not relevant." We were told by a huge director to take Rayon out: "Do not make him a transgendered person because it's offensive." Just the constant battle you have to fight in your head.
How did you get along with Jean-Marc Vallée?
Melisa Wallack: The working relationship evolved from the time he was on board to when we were shooting. Jean-Marc is amazing. When you're working with someone who has such a strong vision, you can learn so much about writing. You can learn whose point of view you're supposed to be in, what each scene is supposed to be doing. He was very collaborative. We were down in New Orleans for two weeks writing with him. To be able to do that with someone else is like taking a class in filmmaking.
Craig Borten: We just found our way. He said, "I want to go from Ron's point of view. Let's switch things to seeing everything from his point of view." And then, of course, his biggest note was, "Is this real life? Is this authentic?" And we would just go through each moment. Jean-Marc's thing was, "I want to make a film where we drop into someone's life and we don't feel like we're watching a movie. My actors won't look like movie stars. The people I cast around them, the character actors, will look like real people. It's going to be natural lighting and handheld, and I want everything to seem real and authentic." And that's what we did. We were there the whole time. Preproduction, production. He invited us up for post, although he was in Canada. And he included us in his cuts. I sat in on casting with him and consulted with him. It was a dream. We were in New Orleans, so we went to some great French restaurants. We'd go to his home, and he'd have cheese and wine, and we'd order dinner, and then we'd write, and we'd talk about films and filmmakers, and he'd talk about directing. It was kind of a perfect artistic experience.
Melisa Wallack: Jean-Marc makes it so you want to work hard for him.
Craig Borten: Which is the talent of a great director.
What do you mean when you say he wanted authenticity?
Melisa Wallack: If there was a derogatory line of dialogue, for example, saying sand n***** in it, he wanted to make sure that people actually in the 1980s would have used that term. I would be arguing that, yes, people did use that term. And then he'd say, find me examples of literature in the '80s where that's used. Things like that, even the smallest details. Thank God for the Internet. It's healthy to have arguments, as long as they're not screaming matches, because you can learn a lot. You can change your mind about things. It's painful when you write something, sometimes, to let go, and even when you're on set it's painful too when people aren't delivering your lines. It's so difficult to kind of extricate yourself from the narcissism.
What did you lose from the film that you regret?
Melisa Wallack: There were some scenes that were just too dark. There was one scene where he was having anal sex with this prostitute. I loved the scene, and he loved the scene, but it was so dark we rewrote it because it was going to seem like an X-movie. There had been so much time that we had been writing it that we weren't that precious about it. When you first write something, you also are handicapped by the struggle of just writing it.
Craig Borten: What I've learned through the recent years is … there's nothing to be precious about. The only thing you want to be precious about is moving your hero forward, moving your story forward. And if it serves that purpose, great, and if it doesn't, you have to let go. And I've also learned there's 20 ways to skin a cat and write a great scene about the same subject. A lot of the scenes are similar or the same. They're just shaved edges of moments. A line distilled from three to one.
Melisa Wallack: It's so difficult to finish a script, so when you've first finished, the last thing you feel like hearing is what's wrong with it. Mentally, you want to be done with it, done with that world. But given enough space, you kind of welcome it. I don't find myself possessive over the minutia so much as the specifics of the character.
Craig Borten: We cut a ton of fat. We had an embarrassment of riches. Melisa always said, "How do we fit all this in two hours? And what happens when life doesn't happen in a three-act structure?" This film, especially, was a beast because there were so many worlds we were trying to tackle: the FDA, the pharmaceuticals, the doctors, the gay movement, Ron Woodroof's world, his old life, his new life. There was a lot going on. It was a rodeo to wrangle.
What are your favorite scenes? What about the grocery store scene where Ron defends Rayon?
Melisa Wallack: When we wrote it the first time, Ron was on this rant about, "Look what's in our food. This is what's killing us." Then when we shot it, Jared did this thing with potato chips at the end, that was not scripted, where he looks so broken but so grateful. That was a moment where my script was elevated to a level I never would have expected.
Craig, did Ron talk about how he came to terms with his homophobia through his illness and the AIDS patients he met through the Buyers Club?
Craig Borten: He had to do it as a need for survival, for making money, then embracing these people. He found his humanity. He spoke about homophobia, but he was also just a racist on all fronts. He was an equal opportunity racist.
What about your favorite scenes?
Craig Borten: I've probably got eight or 10 that I love. I love that scene where he's told he's got AIDS. It speaks to who he thinks he is. It's the last moment before everything is about to change. You're dealing with his homophobia and his mistrust of doctors, and then you're dealing with the fact that he's hearing that he's got 30 days to live. There's anger coming through, there's denial coming through, and there's fear coming through. And you're trying to get information into the scene.
To change the subject, Craig, you've mentioned that you had a drug problem in the past that Melisa helped you through. Can you talk about it?
Craig Borten: What's the best way to talk about it? I went through a dark period, and I struggled with substance abuse. All kinds. Everything. Melisa's a dear friend, and she helped pick me up.
Melisa Wallack: It strengthened our relationship, me going to Craig's hovel once a year and telling him to get his shit together.
Craig Borten: My addiction was tougher on Melisa than on me. We were working a little bit through it, then I just disappeared into the vortex of addiction. I have no regrets because the end result of it was to be able to look at myself and make a decision about whether I wanted to continue down the rabbit hole toward possible death, or being the walking dead, or actually going out there and making a decision to get my life back and dare to live. I can relate it to Ron Woodroof. I'm going to choose life. [Recovery] has given me so much. It's given me a life. It's given me a work ethic. I went into treatment, and I went to rehab many times. I've been five years sober.
Melisa Wallack: Craig would call me all the time. "You need to get me the fuck out of here right now."
Craig Borten: What ended up happening was, at my darkest moment, I looked in the mirror and I didn't recognize myself, and I fell on my knees and was crying. And I said, "I don't want to be this way anymore. I'm going to fight and change." I ended up at a state-run rehab where 95 percent of the people were straight out of prison. Not only was it a hostile environment where people had a propensity for violence, but also people died there. People took their own lives there. I ended up staying seven months, and it probably saved my life because I grew up there. I learned to become a man. I just wrote a movie about it. About my relationship with a skinhead that was my roommate who had done 13 years for involuntary manslaughter. He had a swastika on his neck. We became best friends, and he was killed. He was murdered.
Sounds like a friendship as unlikely as that of Ron Woodroof and Rayon.
Craig Borten: It was an unlikely friendship where you found your humanity and you got rid of your ignorance. There's a poetry to life in so many stories. I've been writing it for two years. I just took another pass at it over the holiday. I don't know if anyone will let me direct.
Melisa Wallack: Eighteen years from now you'll be directing it! You must have been relieved when he got himself together.
Melisa Wallack: Very. It was a long seven years. There were some moments in there.
Craig Borten: That's enough I want to say on this subject.
Dallas Buyers Club is a triumphant story in terms of its 20 years. My story is part of it. It's part of our story. I want it to inspire people. I'm reborn. This is my rebirth. But I don't want it to take away from our story.
Was your drug use related in any way to the movie not getting made?
Craig Borten: Not at all. Substance abuse and alcohol are much deeper issues. You can't put it on an event.
Melisa Wallack: It was in no way a response to the industry. We had barely sold it to Universal at that time. If anything, the opposite should have happened.
But Ron Woodroof and the world of AIDS is such a dark world to live in for such a long time.
Craig Borten: I like living in that world. A lot of the new stuff I'm writing is dark and human. Someone said to me the other day, "My perception of the film was that it's about a man dying of AIDS, but actually it's quite the opposite. It's about a man with a will to live."
Melisa Wallack: Writing it was inspiring
Craig Borten: Because she had me.
Melisa Wallack: Because I love Craig.
"It's healthy to have arguments, as long as they're not screaming matches, because you can learn a lot," says Melisa Wallack. "You can change your mind about things. It's painful when you write something, sometimes, to let go. Even when you're on set, it's painful too when people aren't delivering your lines. It's so difficult to extricate yourself from the narcissism."
"The only thing you want to be precious about is moving your hero forward, moving your story forward," says Craig Borten. "If it serves that purpose, great; if it doesn't, you have to let go."

Author has written 8 stories for StarTrek: Enterprise, and StarTrek: Deep Space Nine.
I'm a wife, mother, editor, love astronomy, play ice hockey. I archive Trip and T'Pol fic at Triaxian Silk.
About a week after I viewed the Enterprise finale, I sat down and wrote my first Trip-centric fanfic. And 4 years, 6 stories, 100,000 words later, I guess I'm done. LOL . . .
I loved the Rosanne show. It was funny and realistic and it tackled some uncomfortable, yet important, topics. Along with the various Star Trek series, that show is my model. I am concerned (OK, obsessed) with Trip, T'Pol, and their teenage son Lorian, and how they negotiate the impossible situations I throw them into. ;) I was inspired by Lorian's comment in a deleted scene of E-squared that his parents had a "loving, if somewhat contentious" relationship. That's what I'm going for: I want to portray a realistic family, with conflicts but strong connections.
My space soap opera explores several themes: finding hope after a loss; the value of marriage; the "joy" of parenting a teenager; sexual temptation and responsibility; and identity issues, including sexual identity (or some Star Trek analogue thereof). But for the characters, the personal issues come second to the mission: saving their planet(s) from the Xindi threat.
I've been a Trekkie since The Next Generation. I aspire to be funny, hopeful, and respectful of the canon. I LOVE the writers who gave us these compelling characters.
My E-squared series is done! It has a wild plot.

Painted cells to increase emissivity
> 100A discharge yields 21AH
Put 3 coats of flat black paint on the cells to make the cell surface more of an emitter, so I can get some good thermal uniformity photos.
The discharge was at the highest so far at 103A, and as the photos show. we had some red glowing load bands. Even the #10 lead wires got up to over 100F.
The cells did even better at the 103A than they did at 68A, so I suspect that warm is better than cool for getting the most energy out out of the cells.
Next test will be to freeze the fixture and see what the differences may be.
Pretty impressive cells for sure.

Gordon Brown was joined by several Cabinet ministers to launch a package of measures aimed at boosting social mobility and unlocking the talent of the most disadvantaged children.
The New Opportunities White Paper includes free nursery places for the poorest two-year-olds and a new legal duty requiring all public bodies to take background into account when delivering services.
All "high potential" children from low-income backgrounds will be given mentors and other help in secondary school to get them into university, with leading academics offering summer schools and placements.
To help children avoid poverty, "vulnerable" pregnant women will be given a dedicated family nurse for the first two years of their child's life. Some 35,000 new apprenticeships will also be created to help working-class teenagers secure skilled jobs.
The legal requirement for Whitehall departments and local councils to consider "the persistent inequality of social class" is expected to be tacked onto the Equalities Bill. This could mean poorer pupils having more spent on them and councils being forced to consider lotteries of school places. Currently, public sector bodies only have to take account of race, age, gender and disability.
In a speech this weekend, Equalities minister Harriet Harman will trumpet the move as a step towards "a new social order" in the UK. "We want to do more than just provide escape routes out of poverty for a talented few. We want to tackle the class divide," she will say.
The Prime Minister said: "Every generation can do better than the previous generation - that is what upward mobility is about. Measures we are announcing today are designed to do exactly that."
Cabinet Office Minister Liam Byrne said: "For 30 years after the Seventies social mobility did not move, but since 2000 the signs are that things are changing."
Tories shadow skills secretary David Willetts warned that legislating against the wealth gap was a "classic example" of Labour believing it could use laws to achieve its ends.

I personally found more enjoyment out of the .hack//G.U. trilogy than the original .hack//'s.
Granted, the games objectively were pretty simple and at many points just plain repetitive and/or lazy, but I loved the combat, story and characters.
It doesn't look like CyberConnect2 is working on a new series though, which kinda sucks.

The symbiotic relationship between laser ablation mechanisms and analytical performance using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy are addressed in this work. For both cases, it is important to ensure that the ICP conditions (temperature and electron number density) are not effected by the ablated mass. By ensuring that the ICP conditions are constant, changes in spectral emission intensity will be directly related to changes in laser ablation behavior. Mg ionic line to atomic line ratios and excitation temperature were measured to monitor the ICP conditions during laser-ablation sample introduction. The quantity of ablated mass depends on the laser pulse duration and wavelength. The quantity of mass removed per unit energy is larger when ablating with shorter laser wavelengths and pulses. Preferential ablation of constituents from a multicomponent sample was found to depend on the laser beam properties (wavelength and pulse duration). For nanosecond-pulsed lasers, thermal vaporization dominates the ablation process. For picosecond-pulsed lasers, a non-thermal mechanism appears to dominate the ablation process. This work will describe the mass ablation behavior during nanosecond and picosecond laser sampling into the ICP. The behavior of the ICP under mass loading conditions is first established, followed by studies of the ablation behavior at various power densities. A thermal vaporization model is used to explain nanosecond ablation, and a possible non-thermal mechanism is proposed to explain preferential ablation of Zn and Cu from brass samples during picosecond ablation.

* Pat Fitzgerald is our coach. Do not underestimate the job our young coach has done with this team the last two weeks. The X's and O's can be learned, the emotions and personal side of coaching can not. You either got it or you don't and Fitz has "got it."
We all felt how devastating the MSU loss was - to head to Ann Arbor and Iowa City following that loss, the biggest task was not to just get blown out of the Big House and Kinnick. Not only has this team held together, they've gotten better.
That fight, unity, drive and bond can all be credited to our leader on the sidelines. This man is ready to be a coach, my friends. He'll have to tinker with coordinators and play calls and learn a lot there, but he has the biggest thing in a coach - he has his team and his players will play for him.
* C.J. Bacher can run this offense. We saw what a big difference the loss of Baz made in the first half of the season. In the last 3 games, we've seen what a big difference a CJ can make in getting the O back to where it should be. This guy's our quarterback, and he has a couple more years left!
* When the offense is balanced by a solid QB, Tyrell Sutton is one heck of a running back. His numbers will show sophomore slump, but he hasn't lost a step from last year when the offensive rhythm is established and has even added some strength in running over foes.
* Long offensive drives rock! And they let the defense rest to rush more! Just as Fitz is finding his groove, our OC appears to be finding his way rather nicely. Now just don't let up on offense with a lead! Oh yeah - and on 3rd and 1, do NOT run an option to the SHORT SIDE of the field, especially when Brewer doesn't yet know how to make the defender commit on the option.
* Our defensive players have a lot of heart and hustle. I'm not sure Colby deserves to be back next year, but it's nice to see our players hustling and fighting hard - with the right schemes they can be effective and we can hopefully add to the talent pool.
* Special teams is still a glaring weakness on this team. The missed FG hurts and thankfully the interception wiped out a horrible punt that set Iowa up for a TD. We really need to focus on improving this area ASAP.
* We have our own excuses this year, so I don't want to keep hearing about the weather in Ann Arbor or Iowa's slew of injuries. We have our own injuries and trials.
* If we had had this team on the field in place from the start of September, we may be thinking Phoenix right now ... not the BCS bowls, but the Insight Bowl.
Much like the 1997 team where an early injury (Bates) really killed the season, we were hurt at the start of this year by Walker's death and injuries. But we're really playing decent football right now and looking like a much improved team - the opposite of what you'd expect would happen after a loss like the MSU game - so that has me optimistic for next year and the future.
Oh yeah, one more thing I know ...
* WE WILL BEAT ILLINOIS in two weeks!

Backup QBs await chance
Credit: AP
PHILADELPHIA — As far as backup quarterbacks are concerned, this is the most crucial stretch of their season.
Ryan Mallett and Tim Tebow will each draw a huge workload in the Patriots' preseason opener tonight against the Eagles, and their performance in exhibition games is significant. With the obvious best-case scenario that neither player takes a meaningful snap while wearing a uniform, Mallett and Tebow have to make their film count every time they get under center in August.
That's why the guaranteed playing time is a huge deal.
"It's great," Mallett said. "If you're a competitor, you love it. I feel like that's what I was born to do, and I can't wait for (tonight)."
Mallett, a 2011 third-rounder who has two seasons remaining on his contract, was the subject of trade calls by the Browns and Buccaneers before April's draft, but the Patriots couldn't corral the second-round pick they coveted. Next offseason, when Mallett can restructure or extend his contract, teams are expected to be more aggressive for his services, so long as he shows improvement this preseason.
Sporting News: WR Plaxico Burress suffers torn rotator cuff, career could be in limbo [1]
Sporting News: Michael Vick resurrecting career after disastrous 2012 [2]
Sporting News: Falcons RB Steven Jackson picking up at 30 where others drop off [3]
A source said teams have still done some background work to prepare for a potential chase of Mallett, whether because of injury or a change in organizational direction next offseason.
In the last two preseasons, Mallett completed 69-of-130 tosses (53.1 percent) for 657 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions. The numbers are indicative of his accuracy woes, which have steadily improved due to better footwork and mechanics. The numbers should also be noted in proper context, as Mallett played with second- and third-stringers and against similar opponents.
Regardless of Tom Brady's playing time tonight, Mallett would figure to get more chances with projected starting receivers and tight ends who also need on-field exposure. Mallett's recent run of good practices could carry over to the game.
"I feel like I've improved a lot," said Mallett, who felt his accelerated understanding of the system caused the game to slow down. "Overall, I feel confident. I'm ready to go."
Tebow walks a different path. He could be more than a quarterback for the Pats, who would love to throw opposing defenses for a loop with Tebow-specific personnel packages. But mostly, a competent third-stringer would give Bill Belichick the peace of mind to entertain Mallett's trade offers.
Tebow, too, has a lot to gain if he can develop in Josh McDaniels' offense during his two-year contract. His first few sessions in camp were expectedly rocky due to his reputation as a poor practice player, but he has been better in the last week. Tebow's mechanics have visibly improved after his offseason training with Chris Weinke.
The lefty hopes to show those strides to his new teammates for the first time in game action.
"It's going to be fun. Playing the real games are always a lot of fun, although this has been great practicing against the Eagles," said Tebow, who had never participated in a joint practice. "It's been a good experience for me. I feel like I've learned a lot. It's been good preparation, and it's always good to play the real thing."
Of his goals, Tebow said "competing, try to execute, move the ball, try to lead the guys when I'm out there."
Neither Mallett nor Tebow came nowhere close to caring more about their league-wide audition than the Patriots' success, but that's the reality for all backups in preseason. Players with big-time name recognition like Mallett and Tebow only harbor more of that spotlight.
For the time being, the best way for personal advancement involves mastering their responsibilities.
"Like always, I'm just trying to do my job, do what the team asks me to do," Mallett said. "And if my number is called, I'll be ready."

Facebook Privacy Question
So, this came up at work yesterday, and nobody knew the answer. I thought maybe a wise person here did.
We all know privacy is a bit of a sham in the online world, and even the most private of security settings have loopholes for companies that are interested enough to poke around in your profile.
So, we got to discussing what happens when you delete or deactivate your profile.
Presumably, if you actually do 100% delete your profile, it is gone and any scandals involving pictures you posted or inappropriate comments you made disappear. Does that seem correct?
We were just unsure about deactivating a profile. If you deactivate, it can still be brought back at a later date. However, what about that intervening time? Is it still searchable by the powers that be? Or does it really seem just as deleted as a real deletion, and all your idiotic choices you chose to post on social media are not possible to find?
It's never deleted. If you ever re-active your account everything is back.
Why did you begin your discussion with "So"? Were you already in conversation or is this topic continued from another thread ?
It came up because we had a staff appreciation last night, and there was a lot of teasing about who would get fired for out-drinking the executive director and how we'd have to delete our Facebooks to hide the evidence from future employers :laugh:
But, I guess if everything is always there....well, that is kind of creepy actually. Haha.
One pathetic thing I recently learned about Facebook is you can take anyone account that you want as long as you have 2 friends willing to help out.
Facebook gives you the option if you 'forgot your email password' to have "3 trusted friends" have codes sent to them and then submitting all 3 to recover the account. Now, all someone techincally has to do is have 3 people start sending friend requests to people and you can have their account within minutes. It is honestly one of the dumbest things they could have added and I hope it gets removed.
Now that is a REAL security issue.
I have the most amazing security on my Facebook account. No one can access it......
Once you put it on facebook they own it, why would they delete it?
If you "delete" your profile then employers/people aren't going to be finding your pictures.
But yes the pictures aren't "gone", Facebook owns them.
Sorry yeah that's what I meant. If you delete/deactivate your profile then Facebook will still have that content, but me, or your boss, or your wife or whoever aren't going to be able to access it.
And to the other guy, your 'security' doesn't matter at all here, it is all about Facebook's recover system. If you don't believe me try to recover your own account and click on the "No longer have access to these?" spot.
The general rule of thumb is this:
Once you upload something to the internet, it's there forever.
The only question is how hard you want to search for it.
Even "permanently deleted" files from things like facebook are still on their servers or elsewhere on the internet at some point.
Facebook has no legal compulsion to truly delete your stuff by the way, why would they delete property they now own? They most likely put it on a storage server, or an offline server, but your info is not gone.
Anything that you put online that is tied to your name will stick to you forever. Heck, if any of your usernames get tied to your real name then people can find even more about you. Imagine your employer finding out about your HFBoards name and coming and reading all of your posts :laugh:.

CANADA STOCKS-TSX down on energy, banks; Valeant surges
* TSX down 22.77 points, or 0.18 percent, at 11,927.49 * Banks and oil companies push index lower * Valeant surges 15 pct after announcing acquisition By Alastair Sharp TORONTO, Sept 4 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index edged lower on Tuesday morning, weighed down by heavyweight energy and financial stocks and shrugging off a surging Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc which said it would buy a rival. Shares in Valeant, the largest publicly traded drug maker in Canada, jumped more than 15 percent to C$58.33 after it announced a $2.6 billion deal to take over U.S. dermatology competitor Medicis Pharmaceutical Corp. Valeant has been on an acquisition spree since its 2010 takeover by Biovail Corp, preferring growth through acquisitions to heavily spending on research. But the broader market was sluggish, with mining and energy companies among the biggest decliners despite investors widely expecting U.S. and European monetary easing that would boost appetite for commodities. Financial stocks also pushed lower, with Royal Bank of Canada down 0.7 percent at C$54.78. The banks gained last week on surprising robust profit and dividend increases. At 10:52 a.m. (1452 GMT) the Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index was down 22.77 points, or 0.18 percent, at 11,927.49. The president of the European Central Bank, Mario Draghi, told European lawmakers that purchases of short-term sovereign bonds would not breach European Union rules, according to a recording obtained by Reuters. "You would think that commodity stocks and the cyclical stocks would try to rally strongly on the back of that and you're not seeing that kind of participation from these sectors," said Sid Mokhtari, director of institutional equity research at CIBC World Markets. That is partly because miners and oil companies have already enjoyed a recent rally, he said. "People bought ahead of the news -- the buy the rumor, sell the news assumption," he said. The energy sector has gained 7.3 percent in the past three months, the best performance of any of the top ten groups on the index. Adding to worries, manufacturing data out of the United States showed a third straight month of contraction in August.

AntiSec's 'Shooting Sheriffs Saturday Release' Dumps 10GB of Police Info
10GB of data concerning law enforcement officials has been leaked by the hacktivists known as AntiSec, largely a combination of the anarchic global Anonymous group and the smaller and more recently publicized LulzSec.
"We are releasing a massive amount of confidential information that is sure to embarass [sic], discredit and incriminate police officers across the US," explained the group. "Over 10GB of information was leaked including hundreds of private email spools, password information, address and social security numbers, credit card numbers, snitch information, training files, and more."
The information was initially retrieved from a breach of the servers at Brooks-Jeffrey Marketing, which hosts sheriff's association sites. Antisec claims that despite awareness of the intrusion and subsequent safeguards, they were able to return and deface the sheriffs' sites again.
The release was heralded as usual by a Pastebin manifesto which began with a number of quotes from law enforcement officials denying or expressing skepticism that the hackers had anything of worth or that anything would actually be released. "We lol'd as we watched the news reports come in," read the statement, "quoting various Sheriffs who denied that they were ever hacked, that any personal information was stolen, that they did not store snitch info on their servers."
"Many lulz have been had as we taunted the sheriffs by responding to their denials by tweeting teasers exposing their SSNs, passwords, addresses, and private emails," Antisec wrote, going on to state that they found "a few credit card numbers, which were used to make involuntary donations to the ACLU, the EFF, the Bradley Manning Support Network, and more. Despite active FBI investigations and their additional security measures, they could not stop us from owning their servers, stealing their identities, and dropping all their data."
The group makes no bones about their motivations. "We are doing this in solidarity with Topiary and the Anonymous PayPal LOIC defendants as well as all other political prisoners who are facing the gun of the crooked court system...you may bust a few of us, but we greatly outnumber you, and you can never stop us from continuing to destroy your systems and leak your data."
"Hackers, join us to make 2011 the year of leaks and revolutions."
