Let's put the show on right here! Or rather, let's not. The charming American way of finding a decent story from, well, anywhere, and turning it into a showbiz monster on Broadway has been dumped upon from an extreme height by the French director of Amélie, Jean-Pierre Jeunet.
On hearing that his saccharine tale of a cutie in Montmartre, (which went on to become the biggest grossing French movie ever), is to be turned into a Broadway musical, Jeunet had these choice words to say, namely "I absolutely can't stand musicals and I hate Broadway. I consider that place to be the embodiment of tackiness."
He well might be thinking about the fate of his fellow Gallic creative, one Victor Hugo, whose literary masterpiece Les Misérables will now be consigned to being enjoyed solely by a select audience of French academics and bookish people like my mother, since it became a musical juggernaut. I actually showed my children a yellowing copy of Les Mis at my parent's house the other day. "Is that the book of the film?" one asked. Indeed.
Or M Jeunet might be thinking of one C Dickens. Who reads Oliver Twist any more? Not many people. It's not the best of his novels, by a long chalk, but it certainly is not as delightfully easy to enjoy as the version with the exclamation mark. You only have to say "consider yourself" to someone and they will start hopping around, twanging imaginary braces à la the Artful Dodger. Indeed, one could almost say the job of the Broadway musical is to provide a sort of grinning Cole's Notes to other art works, sometimes outdoing the original in chutzpah and charm.
Of course, it had to take a Frenchman to say all of this. We Brits are far too cowed by the importance of Broadway and the acknowledgement of showbiz's Midas touch to complain when some of our prized intellectual assets are turned into tapdance material. As went Oliver, so go Roddy Doyle's The Commitments. Even Sting, Gawd bless him, has been arm-twisted into writing a musical about how lovely life is for shipbuilders in Tyneside.
This would never happen in France. The French, whose disdain for the culture of the rest of the world is such they have official quotas for their own films, insist on their own crazy words (courriel) when everyone else says something else (email), and spend millions of euros annually on maintaining far-flung outposts of Francophile culture across the globe, really don't give a flying croissant about insulting Broadway.
"I won't go to see it [the musical]," Jeunet has said, sniffily, "I don't want to hear about it, I will not listen to what they do." Formidable.
This of course is how the French are, in politics as well as culture. They don't want to hear how the rest of us get on with life, because they consider they have the most superior culture going, and the best bread to boot. Everyone else in Europe creeps around America, because she is so big, strong and, frankly, loaded. Not the French. Well, we could all do with a bit of such stubborn independence. Vive la France!

WARNING: Do not play alone.
Review written by
To a lot of people, Mario Party 8 was just another set of mini-games and a new design. The game may be that with more to it, but only thanks to the hardware shift. But does the Wii bring a new experience even with a game such as this?
Mildly impressive, if they were done on GameCube. It doesn't run in 16:9 which feels odd when playing on a widescreen TV. Animations have moved up from the last game, but not as much as they did from N64 to GameCube with Mario Party 4. Although graphics are in my opinion the least important part of a game, it would be nice if Nintendo put in some effort for the series.
There's hardly any voice acting in the game besides a big "HeyheyHEYYY!!!" from the host of the game (what's his name again?) but then again if there was, it'd probably be somewhat annoying, such as the "MARIO PARTY 8 AAAAHH!!" you hear when you choose the game from the Wii menu. The music is not something to be impressed about, my little brother's band class in 5th grade does better. Then again he's in a private school.
Probably the best aspect of the game.. if you have a lot of friends. On the board game section, even Easy CPU's get exactly what they want no matter what, whether it's a dice roll or a small mini game on the board.
But on the mini games, the CPU's are just too easy. Playing alone is torture. However the mini games themselves aren't that bad. Sadly not even half of the mini games use motion sensor control and actually go to the NES WiiMote style. But for those that do, they're fun to play, especially with friends.
This game will actually stick with you for a while. There's a lot to achieve and unlock, but you'll find it's just not worth it if you're alone. It'll happen to be played around parties and holidays, but won't last longer than two years at the most seeing to it that a new Mario Party (sorta) will be out by then besides Mario Party DS.
Don't buy the game if you aren't a social kind of person. There's nothing for it. However if you are like that, you'll have a lot of fun with this game no matter how GameCube-ish it seems. Actually renting it for a one time thing isn't too bad an idea though.
No posts yet for this game. Go for it.

95-Year-Old Veteran Finally Gets Medals
NewsRadio 920 WHJJ and the Associated Press
CRANSTON, R.I. (AP) — A 95-year-old Army veteran from Burrillville has finally gotten military honors he earned in World War II.
Percy Wilson was presented with numerous medals Friday at a ceremony in U.S. Sen. Jack Reed's Cranston office.
Reed's office says Wilson joined the Army in 1941 when he was 22. He served with the Headquarters Battery Field Artillery Battalion during the battles of Normandy and the Rhineland.
He has now received the Good Conduct Medal, American Defense Service Medal, World War II Victory medal and American Campaign medal, among others. He was honored for his "exemplary conduct, efficiency and fidelity" while on active duty engaged in combat.
The Rhode Island Democrat calls the medals a "small token" of the country's gratitude and respect for Wilson's service.

Ready to stand up and create positive change at work, but reluctant to speak up? True leadership doesn't always come from a position of power or authority. By teaching you skills and providing practical advice, this handbook shows you how to engage your coworkers and bosses and bring your ideas forward so that they are heard, considered, and acted upon.
Authors Carmen Medina and Lois Kelly—once rebels themselves—reveal ways to navigate your workplace, avoid common mistakes and traps, and overcome the fears that may be holding you back. You can achieve more success and less frustration, help your organization do better work, and—most important—find more meaning and joy in what you do.
Lois Kelly, an author and marketing strategist, counsels executives in large corporations like FedEx, SAP, HP, Fidelity Investments, Dunkin' Donuts, TJ Maxx, SAS Institute, University of Massachusetts, The Conference Board, USAA, Sapient, Communispace, and many more. They hire Lois presumably for help on communicating change and mobilizing word of mouth marketing. The unstated, real reason they hire her is that they are rebels at work, looking for a rebel emeritus who can guide them in successfully shepherding their change agendas inside large, complex organizations – and outside to customers. Being a rebel can be dangerous, and they recognize the value of having an experienced guide.
View Lois Kelly's full profile page.
Carmen worked at the Central Intelligence Agency for 32 years, rising to become one of the highest-ranking women at the Agency. During her career at CIA she achieved positions of apparent importance, such as the Deputy Director for Intelligence and the Director of the Center for the Study of Intelligence (CSI.) But she thinks her greatest achievement is that most people who worked for her are still her friends. She had many ideas about how the CIA could do its job better—not all were welcomed. Being true to yourself, being a rebel at work, Carmen learned, means you will often feel uncomfortable and not welcomed at work. Since her retirement from the CIA in 2010, Carmen has led two new careers. One with Deloitte Consulting and the other as a curator, connector, and synthesizer on social networks. At Deloitte, she continues to support the Intelligence Community on issues such as social networking and future trends, and mentors Deloitte's consultants about how to become innovative and independent thinkers. (She prefers to think of it as being their Yoda). She tweets regularly under the handle @milouness (She started on Twitter while still at CIA so chose an obscure user name; she has 2,504 followers.) She also writes regularly both on her own blog, recoveringfed.com, and on the joint website with Lois Kelly, rebelsatwork.com.

Unique guide for corporate innovators
By KatDee
from Berkeley, CA
About Me Designer, Maker
As corporate culture become more and more mired in policies and procedures, there is very little guidence for those who struggle against the odds to add meaning and improve their organizations.This book offers a lot of inspiration and some practical advice for those who find themselves out of the mold. I really liked how the book clearly defined the types of behaviors that support the rebel's cause and those that don't, as well as excellent actionable advice on gaining credibility, navigating the organizational chart, managing conflict and communicating ideas, as well as dealing with your own self doubt and taking care of yourself.

The sight of an outdoor cat wandering around on a cold winter day is enough to tug at anyone's heartstrings. While these cats might be accustomed to fending for themselves, the cold weather certainly adds another layer to the challenge.
Short of taking them in (which is often not feasible when dealing with feral or barn cats), there are several ways you help keep outdoor cats in your neighborhood safe, warm, and fed when the temperature drops.
Give them shelter
Thickened winter coats do help feral and stray cats when the winter chill sets in according to the Humane Society, but they still need warm, dry, well-insulated and appropriate-sized shelters. One thing you can do is provide neighborhood cats with a little house.
"The kind of cat house you want in your neighborhood is approximately two feet by three feet and at least 18 inches high," according to Vetstreet.com. "It's just the right size for a cat or three (so they can snuggle for warmth) but not so large that heat will disperse quickly."
A small doorway, no larger than eight inches wide, will help keep larger predators out, and attaching a plastic flap will help keep warmth in. Blueprints for a feral cat house can be found here.
Extra calories
Both cats and dogs need extra calories during winter to help them stay warm, but outdoor cats' food intake is often random and sparse. The kindness of a stranger can go a long way in keeping outdoor cats fed when the cold weather hits.
Putting out slightly warmed canned food at regular times each day can help keep them healthy. Because canned cat food will freeze if it's not eaten right away, experts say it's also a good idea to leave out plenty of dry food.
The Humane Society recommends placing food and water near the shelter, so the cats won't have to travel far. Protect food and water from freezing by using thick plastic containers or solar-heated pet bowls.
Look under the hood
Outdoor cats often look to car engines for warmth, so it's important to check for their presence before starting the engine. Unfortunately, car engines are responsible for the deaths of many cats each year.
"I've been in the pet industry for thirteen years, and every year there is a story that comes up about a cat that's gotten trapped in a car [engine]," says Jane Harrell, Editor-in-Chief of the Pet Health Network. "Give a little pound on your hood or slam the car door before you start [your car]. It's always a good idea to check underneath your car to see if cats are hiding."
Watch for antifreeze drips as well. Lapping up just a small amount of the sweet liquid — as little as a teaspoon — can kill a cat. Wipe up antifreeze spills right away to protect your own pets and any outdoor cats who may come across them.

|Question on mod_jk and tomcat
|Thu, 28 Jul 2011 21:42:06 GMT
All, We have apache running on Windows Web Server 2008 R2, fronting tomcat. We use mod_jk to connect. We see these kind of log messages in mod_jk logs. What do they mean? [Thu Jul 28 12:30:56 2011] [14264:10144] [info] jk_ajp_common.c (1882): Writing to client aborted or client network problems [Thu Jul 28 12:30:56 2011] [14264:10144] [info] jk_ajp_common.c (2540): (workerXtsRbge) sending request to tomcat failed (unrecoverable), because of client write error (attempt=1) - Specifically what is the client here? The browser that called apache, or mod_jk as a client of tomcat? - What do the numbers in brackets mean [14264:10144] - bytes and time? - Does this mean that the browser was sent a http 500? - Is there a way that I can get the uniqueId logged along with these lines to make correlating the access and mod_)jk log easier? - I think I read somewhere that by default mod_jk will try a tomcat call once, and if that fails try again before giving up. Does the "attempt=1" mean this is the result of the first attempt or is it the result of the second (e.g. 0 based)? I assume that in the absence of a attempt=0 this must mean that the first attempt failed, and therefore assume that the second succeeded. Is this a fair assumption? Under jkstatus I see Err and CE. From the legend Err means "Number of failed requests" and CE is "Number of client errors". Apache 2.2.17 - httpd.conf LoadModule jk_module modules/mod_jk.so JkWorkersFile d:/apps/Apache2.2/conf/workers.properties JkShmFile d:/apps/Apache2.2/temp/mod_jk.shm JkLogFile "|d:/apps/Apache2.2/bin/cronolog.exe logs/mod_jk.%Y%m%d.log" JkLogLevel info JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y] " JkExtractSSL On JkHTTPSIndicator HTTPS JkSESSIONIndicator SSL_SESSION_ID JkCIPHERIndicator SSL_CIPHER JkCERTSIndicator SSL_CLIENT_CERT JkEnvVar UNIQUE_ID unknown JkEnvVar SSL_CLIENT_V_START Then within a virtual host element JkMount /* workerXtsRbge JkUnMount /index.html workerXtsRbge JkUnMount /ie6unsupported.html workerXtsRbge mod_jk v1.2.30 - worker.properties worker.list=mystatus, workerXtsRbge worker.template.type=ajp13 worker.template.host=localhost worker.template.ping_timeout=1000 worker.template.ping_mode=A worker.workerXtsRbge.reference=worker.template worker.workerXtsRbge.port=8010 Tomcat v7.0.12 - server.xml <Connector port="8010" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443" enableLookups="false" /> Thanks Chris

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on the U.S. presidential transition (all times EST):
8:40 a.m.
The White House says President-elect Donald Trump's team will start working directly with federal agencies this week on the transition.
Trump's team will start getting briefings related to the Defense Department, State Department, Treasury Department and other agencies. The briefings will include budget details, flow charts for staff and other information.
Officials at those agencies will start speaking regularly to Trump team members to facilitate the handover of power in January. And Trump's team will start creating policy teams that will work out of government-provided offices near the White House.
The White House also says the Obama administration will host two "exercises" involving multiple agencies to help familiarize Trump's team with government practices and systems for responding to domestic emergencies.
8:25 a.m.
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie says he has not talked with President-elect Donald Trump about a role in the Trump administration.
Speaking on NBC's "Today" show Thursday, the Republican said he does not believe the George Washington Bridge lane closure scandal will cloud his future.
Christie says he's not committed to doing anything in a new administration. He says his job is to get Trump through the transition and he'll talk with the president-elect if there's any job that Trump wants him to do.
Christie refused to say if he was interested in a specific job.
8:05 a.m.
President-elect Donald Trump will meet with House Speaker Paul Ryan to talk about the Republicans' legislative agenda.
The meeting Thursday with be the first face-to-face between the men since Trump's surprising win. Trump and Ryan have had a tense relationship. Ryan did not campaign with Trump and has been critical of some of his policy proposals.
Trump has blasted Ryan as disloyal, "weak" and "ineffective."
A source familiar with the plans tells The Associated Press that Vice President-elect Mike Pence will also attend the lunchtime meeting. It will follow Trump's White House meeting with President Barack Obama.
The source asked for anonymity to discuss details before an official announcement.
—By Kathleen Hennessey in Washington
7:55 a.m.
A top adviser to Donald Trump is dismissing post-election protesters as "a bunch of crybabies."
Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani was asked Thursday about protests in several cities following Trump's victory Tuesday.
There have been protests in New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington and elsewhere. Some demonstrators carried placards declaring "Not My President."
Giuliani said on Fox News Channel's "Fox and Friends" that most of the protesters are college-age students and seem to be "1 percent of 1 percent of 1 percent."
Giuliani said he would advise the president-elect to tell them to calm down and after a year, "you'll be living in a better country. If not, go cry then."
Giuliani is widely expected to get a major position in the Trump administration.
7:45 a.m.
Don't expect Donald Trump to apologize for his "birther" campaign when he meets with President Barack Obama at the White House.
That's according to New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who has been overseeing the transition for Trump. The president-elect and Obama are meeting later Thursday. Christie was asked on NBC's "Today," whether Trump would apologize for his repeated comments casting doubts on whether Obama was born in the United States.
Christie said "I think that's all past us." He noted that Obama has made barbed remarks about Trump. He said: "That's politics though."
Asked if Trump's birther comments were "just politics," Christie said "everything is in the context of politics" — though that doesn't mean Trump didn't believe what he was saying.
Obama was born in Hawaii.
3:30 a.m.
President Barack Obama is set to welcome his successor, Donald Trump, to the White House, extending an olive branch to a man he blasted as unfit to serve as commander in chief and who led the charge to challenge the legitimacy of his own presidency.
The Oval Office meeting on Thursday symbolically begins the transition of power. Obama is a Democrat who ushered in a sweeping health care law and brokered a landmark nuclear accord with Iran. Trump is a Republican who has vowed to wipe those measures away after he takes office on Jan. 20.
First lady Michelle Obama also plans to meet privately in the White House residence with Trump's wife, Melania Trump.

Andrews County Texas
The county was formed from Bexar County on August 21, 1876, a year after the first detailed explorations made by Col. William R. Shafter from his military base at Fort Concho. The county was named for Richard Andrews, a hero of the Texas Revolution who was killed at the battle of Concepcin in 1835. Subsequent boundary alterations occurred in 1902, 1931, and 1932. For administrative purposes the area was placed within the jurisdiction of Shackelford County in 1876, within the Howard Land District from 1882 to 1887, and within the Martin Land District from 1887 to 1891. The area was placed within the jurisdiction of Martin County from 1891 until 1910, when Andrews County was formally organized with Andrews as its county seat.
In 1886 O. B. Holt first filed on county lands, although the huge Chicago Ranch, founded by Nelson Morris, a Chicago meat packer, purchased 228,000 acres in the southeastern corner in 1884. The county's aridity and its lack of surface streams encouraged novel rain-making experiments in 1891 by the United States Department of Agriculture. Sixty mortars charged with blasting powder and thirty kites suspending dynamite loosed their destructive forces at clouds while a number of ten-foot balloons, each holding a thousand cubic feet of oxygen and hydrogen gas were simultaneously discharged. Despite these notable bombardments no rain fell locally, although a copious precipitation to the east and south was, perhaps, a result of the experiment.
After the draughts of 1886 and 1887, Nelson Morris introduced windmills to draw ground water until he had seventy-nine of the wind machines spaced on his ranch. Morris also introduced barbed wire drift fences to contain cattle.
In 1894 the Scharbauers purchased the Wells Ranch, which with Morris's C-Ranch occupied most of the eastern part of the county. A year later the Texas legislature passed the four-section law, which helped to end open-range ranching in Texas by encouraging the breakup up of great ranches for the benefit of homesteaders and small tract purchasers.
In the early 1880s the building of the Texas and Pacific Railway through Midland, Midland County, the supply point of Andrews County, gave promise of future growth. The railroad promoted immigration and had millions of acres to offer settlers. But since there was plenty of land in West Texas with better access to transportation than Andrews County, the population grew slowly; the census showed only twenty-four residents in 1890, and as late as 1900 only eighty-seven people lived in Andrews County.

Walking together again and the singing Nuns
... it took to reach Carrion.
As we hadn't planned our destination it was by chance we ended up at the albergue run by the Augustian Sisters. We got a bunk, cleaned up as usual then wandered around a bit. I saw quite a few familiar faces so it took a while to return to get on with blog and photo sorting. This job was soon disrupted when Joe, a cruisy mid 50s Italian, needed help ...

I felt like I already knew Luis, because I had seen him on Skype so much while Maria was in Middlebury. After dinner we tried to find a place to drink in town but there were no people anywhere.

The Electric Guitar Turns 75
On August 10, 1937, the Electro String Corporation was awarded the first-ever electric guitar patent. Invented by G.D. Beauchamp, the instrument was known as the Rickenbacker Frying Pan.
The new sound of the electric guitar was a dramatic shift from the strum of the acoustic guitars that had been played for centuries. For the first time the guitar could hold its own in a band and it revolutionized the sound of popular music for decades to follow.
Rudy Pensa is a guitar expert and the owner of Rudy's Music in Manhattan. He discusses the history of the electric guitar, and its evolution into modern culture. A 63-year-old originally from Argentina, Pensa started playing the guitar when he was nine or ten years old.
"In New York City, John D'Angelico [was] making violins and cellos," he says. "He realized that jazz was starting to get big, and developed this amazing jazz guitar." From there, the electric guitar began to move from the back of the stage to the front.
By the 1970s, it had rocketed to the forefront of the rapidly growing hard rock scene. Legendary guitarist Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin was one of the first to perform solos, bending the strings as had never been done before. Pensa hesitates to name him the outright greatest, as rock star Jimi Hendrix was another pioneer of the electric guitar. Gibson.com's list of the top 50 guitarists of all time has Hendrix at the top spot, but the guitar expert is adamant in sharing the top honor between the two masters.
"I will never say which one is better. I'll put two crowns on each head, the two together," Pensa says. "Hendrix was playing the [Fender] Stratocaster, and Jimmy Page was playing the [Gibson] Les Paul standard at the time."

Recent legislation passed in November suddenly changed the already complex Social Security claiming rules, as well as increasing Medicare Part B premiums for many Americans. How will this impact you?
Baby boomers now face two sets of rules for guiding their Social Security strategies, and some boomers MUST act by April 30, 2016 to get covered by the older, more lucrative "loopholes" governing Social Security. Meanwhile, there will be no cost of living adjustment (COLA) for current Social Security recipients in 2016, but many will face increased Medicare premiums.

The story is dedicated to "Henry Pain, Esq.," also known as Henry Neville Payne, a Roman Catholic agitator who was later arrested and tortured for his involvement in the Montgomery Plot of 1689.[1]
In The Fair Jilt, Behn claims that the story is true and that she witnessed much of it herself. Editor Montague Summers writes in his introduction to The Works of Aphra Behn (1915) that the story is only loosely based on actual events: "With all the nice skill of a born novelist she has so mingled fact and fancy, what did occur and what might have been, that any attempt to disentangle the twain would be idle indeed."[1] There was in fact a Prince Tarquino who was condemned to death by beheading in 1666 for the attempted murder of his sister-in-law. The London Gazette reported that the prince was only slightly wounded due to a mistake by the executioner, and was subsequently pardoned.[2]

Tempting as it is to assume that finalised guidance is the same as the draft you first set eyes on several months previously, the August publication of Who Pays? Determining Responsibility for Payments to Providers provides a salutary warning to anyone inclined to add 'final' documents to the 'one-day-next-day-sometime-never' reading pile with which busy managers are necessarily all too familiar.
After all, it's scarcely a good use of your day to do a word-for-word comparison, is it? Don't you have more pressing calls on your always insufficient time? And most of the time, you will be right. For the fateful remainder, we can do no better than borrow from Ellen de Generes: 'You should never assume. You know what happens when you assume? You make an ass out of you and me…'
The final guidance is much briefer and offers little assistance in deciphering the complexities of the NHS Commissioning Board and Clinical Commissioning Groups (Responsibilities and Standing Rules) Regulations 2012. In this briefing, Mills & Reeve guides you through the rules on who is now responsible for commissioning mental health aftercare services for different groups of patients…

The Pub
Will was still feeling wobbly legged by the time he reached the pub.The warm,beery smelling cavern of the inside felt like a sanctury for him,
"Ey-up,lad!" Exlaimed John ,the lanlord."Tha looks like tha`s seen a ghost!" a lop sided grin on his faced. Will was amazed how far Johns booming yorkshire tones could carry across the packed bar. His remark had the effect of making the entire room stop mid-pint and mid conversation and stare at Will. By the time Will had got to the bar the hum and buzz had returned.
"I think I have." Will replied as John pulled him a pint.John had the ability to get people to open up and tell him things without saying anything. Over the next pint will explained to him what had happened, omitting his fainting episode.
"This area is well known for ghosts you know." John replied,"Most places round here have at least one. We`ve got one in the cellar."
"Nah that`s just yer first wife!" Said Brian Jones.He was the local odd job man.Will smiled at the reply .Over the next hour or so Will was regaled with tales of the local ghosts.None of this helped will want to go home.Finally when John called time Will reluctantly began to trudge home.

I've been thinking about the importance of 'Black Oscars Matter' and I've come up with a few ideas on the subject. I think the first thing to do is to hijack the blockbuster meme. Start making films like, "Blackman and Robin". You know what? I could get real comedic here but I'm not going to. What I am going to do it treat with the absurdity.
First off, the Oscars are full of shit. Very often the best films don't win. Like when, increasingly those CIA inspired propaganda movies like "Hurt Locker', "American Sniper", "Argo" and "Dark Zero Thirty" start getting megaloads of press, nominations and positive reviews, when they are basically garbage and who is it that runs Hollywood and who is primarily responsible for where blacks would be at and how their characters are expressed in the medium? Do I have to say it?! Let's go back a few decades when the only blacks you saw in films were the google eyed Stepin Fetchits. Maybe you weren't around when this was happening. I was. No one has victimized and culturally slandered black people like the Tribe cabals that own the studios. From Aunt Jemima to Amos and Andy they kept black people in their place and they don't want them in Israel either.
All of this has changed somewhat in these modern times but now we got the gansta theme and the playa theme and various themes that accent the sexual dynamism angle, in order to promote certain cultural changes in real life. Now... whether they want to run their 'blacks on blondes' agenda, or create their myths of super potency and superior sexual prowess is none of my business. I grew up on military bases and was exposed to black people before most others. I played with them and had them as friends and that has continued through my life. I've been locked up with them in the most dangerous environments and it is a testimony to my freedom from racist attitudes and fears of the kind that I walked out of the whole affair untroubled by horrible possibilities that were rampant at the time and probably still are.
Still... equality is not about handing out appreciation and merit when there is nothing to appreciate, as is the case this year with films that got black actors in them. The ones I know about were subpar and in some cases, like "The Hateful 8", a total piece of garbage. I don't recall any Asians getting attention and I don't hear any of them crying about it either. Native Americans? They hardly get any roles, much less nominations. Did The Chief get one in, "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest?"
This year, "The Revenant" is getting all of the buzz and there was no acting to speak of in it. Apparently it is Decaprio's turn in the barrel and it doesn't matter whether it was any good or not. The best one can say is that it was much better than "The Hateful 8." Probably the best acting job this year was Steve Carrell. Christian Bates is nominated too and that was pretty good but then, he was also in that abortion, "The Knight of Cups" and he should be docked points simply for that (grin).
I don't want to talk about movies. The reason there was no post for over a week is that I don't know what to talk about anymore. I've said all I can say and I've said it a hundred times. I seem to drift these days. I awaken but I do not know what to. I let myself get lost in the rubbish of certain entertainments as a preventive against making up my mind about what to do. Every time I have made up my mind in recent years, I have made a mistake. I don't know where to go anymore. I don't know where to stay. I think perhaps I should go to India because the commercial wastelands of this world are not going to offer anything and I know I could find succor in the Himalayas.
Some of you know what it is like to be possessed of a longing and an attraction that is not of this world and which yearns with an unspeakable passion for another; half invisible and half potential. It stands to reason that one cannot find this in the marketplaces of the world and of course Mumbai and so many other places qualify but I know of only two places that are somewhat possible and that is The Andes and The Himalayas. There are brotherhoods in both locations and possibly elsewhere too. I was told years ago that there were seven locations that would be saved when the heavy shit went down, as it will. One is also in Mexico and one in Russia, another in Mongolia. I suppose I know more than I am saying but I don't get to say all kinds of things because they are hidden from my sight every time I go to say them, they aren't there anymore and anyone who has these labors upon them knows what I am talking about.
So... each day I rise to some occasion and often just sit there, frozen in some moment of time... suspended like chemicals in solution... waiting on something and I have no idea what that is. I never imagined it would be as hard and difficult as it is. I never imagined that every decision I would make would be wrong. I am not a stupid person but somehow, I have failed at everything. Destiny can be merciless and fate unforgiving. So now I wait. John Milton once said, in his Ode to My Blindness, or whatever it was called, "they also serve who only stand and wait." I take some comfort in that. I wish I were stronger, I'm sure all men do but we have only what is sufficient to the day at hand. I think of the immortal poets more now than I ever did and I know this transient veil of life, obscures a brilliant light that is beyond our mortal ken.
I feel humbled by that which is beyond the reach of my essentially corrupt nature. I wish I were a better man but I am not. I would stand and fight but... the greatest enemy is within. As the Lord of the Rings plays alongside my writing this today, all I can think is that I wish I were an elf. I'm told that a human birth has so much more potential than a Devic birth but I have been attracted to that realm far more than anything I have ever found here. The human experience has left me with the taste of ashes and an enormous sense of regret for all of the things I could have and should have been and done and didn't; paths that might have been taken and were either ignored because of reckless abandon or... never possible to begin with and simply imagined in retrospect.
I'm not a bad person. I serve in every moment where opportunity provides but I fall short. I always fall short. I say this with all the naked agony of my kind. Somehow the miles and the years pile up and when we look back upon them they seem so brief but... as the mind conjures an awareness of where one was at the time, it seems so long. How did we manage to fuck up so many possibilities? Perhaps they were only phantasms. Perhaps we never had a choice and it is just the nature of our ignorance that we believe we could have done better but no... we did the best we could. Regret is the perpetuating state of the dream worlds of mortals and... I am not that but it seems as if it is so.
I'm just sharing this with you today because I don't know what else to say. I don't want to talk about all of the dumb and mindless crap that we use around here as a backdrop for what we really want to say and always get around to saying at some point in these epistles to whomever. I'm tired of this Ashkenazi bloodbath around the world and what they don't kill in the body they kill in the heart and the mind and the soul. I'm tired of the male driven imperatives of the Arab world; the contempt for women who are the single bravest and most beautiful portions of ourselves, who are in reality, our higher selves, who are the gentler and sweeter and more perfect portion of what our souls are all about. I suppose I am heartbroken at my own insufficiency and the fact that I never appreciated them half as much as I should have.
This is a cruel and unfortunate world where we, in blood and flesh, consummate and extract our debts from our own person within ourselves and upon ourselves by extension. Were it not for the greater love and mentoring that is bestowed upon us in this crucible of pain we would never escape. Thankfully we are saved according to our ability to sacrifice ourselves before the greater challenge of service to our fellows. There is no greater joy that is possible here and one discovers this to the extent that their selfish nature persists in keeping them from the recognition of this and at the expense of grievous suffering in respect of that lesson learned. It is just how it is.
So... it is that I have written this today and I hope the day finds you well.
End Transmission.......

Photos: Skyharbor Kick Off India Tour at The Festival, Kolkata
American-Indian prog band may have played a scaled downNews & Updates, Photos December 05, 2016
With guitarist Devesh Dayal flying down from the U.S. just in time, and a few days of rehearsals, prog metallers Skyharbor kicked off their first India tour with vocalist Eric Emery, playing in the country after two years. On their first stop in Kolkata, as part of concert series The Festival, things seemed to go their way, but not without initial concerns about the show itself. The organizers first encouraged fans to think of buying a ticket for the show as a way of "crowdfunding" the show and eventually moved the show to 10 Downing Street club on account of lack of sales.
The lineup, which was first revealed to include supporting sets by Kolkata experimental metallers What Escapes Me and prog rock band AlienZ, added (of all the things) a Belgian bluegrass act called the Louvat Brothers and Bollywood/classic rock covers act Jojo Nathaniel and Shiva.
Nonetheless, Skyharbor remained the main draw, with about 300 people gathered to catch the band run through a setlist similar to their Europe tour earlier this year, performing "Chemical Hands," "Blind Side," "Allure" and "Patience" among others.
