Donovan Looks For Leaders
With Marreese Speights gone and Billy Donovan's incoming freshmen set to arrive next week, who wil lead the young gator basketball team this season?
Donovan hesitates to single any one player out, but has hinted that Nick Calathes is best suited to the role. Last season, Calathes lead the Gators in points, assists and steals.
"When you look at the playing time situation from last year, you think Nick should be a leader," says Donovan. "But I think Nick will have to do things from that position that he hasn't had to do yet."
Donovan says he will look to Calathes' sophomore teammates to ease the burden.
"He's gonna need some help. Jai Lucas played a lot of minutes for us, he started every game, he needs to help out in that role."

Inside the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant
04/12/04 12:00AM By John Dillon
| Download MP3
(Host) For the rest of the month, the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant will be shutdown for a major overhaul. Over a thousand people are working around the clock to install new equipment so the plant can boost its power by 20 percent.
Yankee officials say the upgrade is a relatively low-cost way to gain an additional 110 megawatts. But opponents worry that safety will be compromised as more power is squeezed out of the aging, 32-year-old reactor.
VPR examines this issue in a two-part series. Today, reporter John Dillon takes us inside the Vernon power plant.
(Dillon) The Yankee nuclear plant is a now a huge construction site. Eleven-hundred workers go through these gates and pass through a rigorous security screening. Private security guards wearing black uniforms and carrying automatic weapons check IDs. A machine puffs air over each worker and then sniffs for hidden explosives.
Once inside, dosimeter badges are required to detect radiation.
"So here we go. As soon as it's green you've got to go." (Clanking sound) "Perfect, you're in. We've still got to go down to dosimetry to pick up the self-reading dosimeters."
(Dillon) Last month, state regulators allowed Vermont Yankee to install the equipment needed for the increase in power. Entergy, the Louisiana company that owns Yankee and nine other reactors, still needs approval from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
But under the federal rules, it can start the work now. So Entergy is betting the $60 million cost of the upgrade that it will win federal approval next year, after the equipment is installed. It's probably a safe bet. The NRC has reviewed more than 90 previous upgrade requests, and rejected none of them.
"Now you've entered what we call the radiation controlled area..."
(Dillon) Craig Nichols, the manager of the project, leads me through the reactor building. A nuclear power plant harnesses a controlled chain reaction from radioactive uranium to generate heat. The heat boils water and the steam from the water spins a turbine, which in turn drives a generator to produce electricity.
To get the 20 percent power boost, the reactor needs to generate more heat and send more steam through a new turbine. It's this higher temperature and pressure that critics worry could weaken the plant and compromise safety. Nichols says key components will be replaced.
(Nichols) "We'll walk all the way down to the front of the turbine and over here, and you'll see the new high pressure turbine that we're putting in. That's another power uprate modification that actually allows the 20 percent more turbine to make more power. Nice shiny new high pressure turbine."
(Dillon) But to produce more power, about 20 percent more fuel will be consumed.
(Nichols) "As you can see down there - without going over - this is our spent fuel pool. This holds all our fuel since first starting up..."
(Dillon) Thirty-two years worth of old fuel rods are stacked here under water that reflects a pale blue light. The tank is smaller than a swimming pool, but much deeper - about 40 feet deep. And it's running out of room.
(Nichols) "We have 368 fuel assemblies in this reactor. Normally we would replace approximately 100. When we do this refueling for the purposes of power uprate, we'll have to replace approximately 20 more each time."
(Dillon) The spent fuel remains highly dangerous for thousands of years. Yankee plans to store the excess waste in dry concrete casks on site until a permanent repository is built in the Nevada desert. Opponents of the power boost have focused on the fuel issue. They say it doesn't make sense to produce more waste, which could become a target for terrorists, without a safe or permanent place to put it.
The critics have also challenged the overall safety of the project. They point out that Yankee would be the oldest plant to undergo the largest-ever power upgrade, and that it's exempt from some newer federal safety standards. And they argue that the power increases have led to shutdowns at other nuclear plants.
Outside the plant, the issue is hotly debated. During a recent Switchboard on Vermont Public Radio, Peter Alexander, director of the New England Coalition that opposes the Yankee upgrade, challenged plant spokesman Brian Cosgrove.
(Alexander) "Of these eight plants that Brian has cited that have received large uprates, five of them according to our information and the reports that we're seeing from the NRC, five of them have experienced serious uprate-related breakdown of one sort or another."
(Dillon) Vermont utility regulators also focused on the reliability question. Since replacement power is more expensive than Yankee's, the state Public Service Board recently pointed out that extended shutdowns at Yankee could bring financial harm Vermont ratepayers.
Back at the plant, Yankee executive Craig Nichols says each retrofit is different and that Yankee has learned from the ones that have gone before. He says that the upgrade allows Yankee to install new and safer equipment.
(Nichols) "We're making some of the components thicker, and adding some bracing, so under increased power operation we won't get a vibration that could cause a problem that they did at some of the other plants. Those plants did not do those modifications in advance. We've learned from that and are making these pre-emptive modifications."
(Dillon) The scale of the work here is enormous. Overhead, a 140-ton crane stands ready to lift the main piece of the generator out to a railroad car. From there, it will be shipped to Brattleboro for rebuilding.
The boost in power production will also cause a slight increase in radiation that leaves the plant. If the levels exceed state limits, Yankee will be required to install additional shields or reduce power. The 1,100 people who work here are all checked for radiation. Two machines scan for signs of exposure:
(Mechanical voice) "Right hand, left hand, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 - please go back! (Nichols) "Oh, go back."
(Dillon) Visitors are also checked. And there's a delay as the last machine warns of contamination as I walk through. After a morning inside the plant, even my microphone has picked up some faint radioactivity. Yankee officials assure me that the levels are safe. And after a few minutes for the particles to decay and disperse, the device flashes the green light, and we're free to go.
For Vermont Public Radio, I'm John Dillon in Vernon.
In Tuesday's story, VPR examines whether federal regulators have weakened a key safety standard in their review of the project.

Amanda Rich Response: The fabric that we are using for our tricot gowns is the exact same gown that we have been selling for the last 5 years. Yes, the fabric is thin, but is designed that way and cut full across the bust and in the body to gently fall and drape on the bias. Our customers love the way that the fabric does not get wrapped tightly around them while sleeping. I would recommend that you select a deeper color than the pastels, if you feel like it is too thin.
There are only a couple of fabric mills that produce the nylon fabric that was so popular over 30 years ago. Technology has changed the yarns and the market demand has shifted back and forth, so we don't have a lot of control over the size of the yarns. 98% of the customers are satisfied with the fabric, but the ones that have worn these gowns for many years may remember a slightly heavier fabric.
Jacqueline from Chevy Chase, Md. USA

text: Made in Chelsea NYC: Alex Mytton leaves New York as Binky and Jamie turn a cold shoulder Having alienated his friends and ex-girlfriend, the MIC gang's black sheep was back on a plane headed for London by the end of tonight's episode ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW By Susanna Lazarus Sunday 17 August 2014 at 9:58PM Episode two of the Made in Chelsea cast's jaunt in NYC and guess who's reared his bouffant head? Alex Mytton, that's who. Last seen begging his friends to leave his and Binky Felstead's relationship alone, before being unceremoniously dumped by his girlfriend after all those many, many, many cheating allegations. The first we see of Al in tonight's episode is his emergence from one of New York's famous yellow cabs, wearing a pensive expression and gazing up at the blue skies. His first move? An ill-advised phone call to his ex. "You'll never guess where I am?" "Let me guess, you're in New York." Full marks, Binky. Top of the class, although she was less than happy to hear his voice... "I don't want to see you, I don't want you to be here." Alex tried to go all Chelsea on her and arrange to meet in Central Park at 9pm but Binks wasn't having any of it. Never mind, at least his boiiis had got his back. Oh, wait... If you cast your mind back to last week's episode, you'll remember Alex Mytton has done something bad. Very, very bad. Something so bad that Jamie Laing ended up in tears. Well, tonight we found out the full extent of his crime - hooking up with Mr Laing's ex-girlfriend Tara. "I f**king hate him," raged Jamie when he received a text revealing the full extent of his friend's betrayal. He marched down to Central Park - only to find Alex with an equally raging Binky whom he was – unsuccessfully – attempting to make peace with. "You want to make sure it's OK with me before you go off with the boys and f**k half of New York," she accused him. "Do you think coming here and saying you want to be friendly is going to change all the things you've done?" In short, no it wasn't. But things were about to get far, far worse for Mr Mytton as Jamie showed up, ready for a good old MIC-style showdown. Of course, Alex denied all the allegations but Jamie hit back with, "I know you Alex. I know your lies. I've lied for you, I've lied about you. Do not lie to me or I'll think you're a bigger piece of s**t than I do right now." "You know what state I get in," was all a wimpering Alex could come up with but it just wasn't good enough. "You don't understand how much this hurts," sobbed Jamie. "We can't patch this up because you broke my loyalty. Especially with f**king Tara, you prick. I wouldn't ever do that to you. Go to London you prick, I f**king hate you." Touché. And with that Alex was all but given his marching orders. Jamie went over to Binky's to patch things up and apologise for placing his misguided loyalty with Mr Mytton. Alex tried to make amends, heading over to Jamie's flat to, well, we think he meant to apologise... but "you're no angel, mate" probably wasn't the best angle to take. "I understand why Jamie is livid and hurting," added Spencer, and, for once, we agreed with him. The writing was on the wall for Alex and as Binky dropped Fran and Cheska at the airport, she saw her sullen-faced ex standing on the concourse, passport in hand. He glanced longingly in her direction, she got into her taxi, and we cheered loudly at our screens. Bon voyage, Mr Mytton! Made in Chelsea NYC continues next Sunday at 9:00pm on E4 continue reading

Don't be obsessed by possessions, Pope says in starting Lent
By Philip Pullella
ROME (Reuters) - Pope Francis, leading the world's Roman Catholics into the penitential season of Lent on Ash Wednesday, urged them not to be obsessed with possessions and to shun a culture where everything can be bought and sold.
Ash Wednesday is the day Christians are reminded of mortality and hear the phrase 'from dust you came and to dust you shall return' as ashes are smudged onto their foreheads.
Francis led a traditional procession between two churches on the streets of Rome's Aventine Hill to begin the pre-Easter season of Lent, when Christians are called on to fast, pray and give alms to the needy.
In the second church, a cardinal smudged ashes onto the pope's head and then the pontiff, wearing purple vestments, did the same to cardinals accompanying him.
"We live in a world that is always more artificial, in a culture of 'making,' of 'profit,' where without realizing it, we exclude God from our horizon," he said in his homily at a Mass concluding the service.
"Often today, giving freely is not part of daily life, where everything can be bought and sold, where everything is calculated and measured," he said.
Francis, leader of the world's 1.2 billion Roman Catholics, said the best way to give was to not expect anything in return.
This way, he said, people can free themselves "from the obsession of possession, from the fear of losing what we own, from the sadness of those who do not want to share their well-being with others". Continued...

Restoring E30, No Spark...
So my latest project is a 92 325i e30, it's been sitting in a barn for about 9 years and I'm trying to get it running again. So far I have changed the oil and filter, spark plugs, emptied and refilled the gas tank, fuel filter, added injector cleaner, new battery, coolant flush, changed power steering fluid, air filter, checked all the fuses, topped off the brake fluid, and of course pumped up the tires. The car ran fine when it was parked back in 04 but when I tried to start it the engine would turn over, and sounded healthy, but wouldn't start. I pulled one of the spark plugs to see if there was any spark but it wouldn't fire. Any ideas on what would cause this? All of the electrical connections looked good. If the immobilizer is preventing the car from starting would it allow it to turn over? Also when I had all of the spark plug boots disconnected from the plugs a friend tried to start it not realizing the boots were not connected. Would this have done any damage? Thanks for the help, clearly I don't know much about the electrical side of an engine :(
Test the crank position sensor. Also, can you tell if it's firing the injectors? How about fuel pressure?
If it were the immobilizer, turning the key would do nothing. No spinning of the engine at all, just the idiot lights come on.
^this. The crank sensor is what the DME is looking for in order to start the car. These have been known to go bad and/or operate intermittantly.
My $ is on CPS or DME, would also be a good idea to check the cap and rotor.
Ok thanks guys, I'll see if I cant test it, also on these cars will the tachometer move if you are just cranking it? This might prove its the CPS...
No, the tach won't react until it's running.
Damage to the HT spark system depends on how long you turned it over for and if a spark was ok when you started that proceedure. I've seen both 'buggered up' and 'got away with it' for the same time cranking.
I had a similar problem try testing the ignition coil for spark, try changing the crank position sensor, I did both and still didn't start, so I changed the engine relay and it started, Doh
Also pull apart your glove box and look for an immobiliser or you can pull up the back seat and see if you have a relay for it, if you have one and the battery has gone flat for a long time you may need to re-set it or by pass it, like I had to.
Good Luck
Imobolisers just stop the car starting - Alarms make a noise.

Well said. David Robert Grimes gives science a bad name - his scepticism is prejudiced, and therefore, not true.ReplyDelete

I agree. I am all for science and genuine skepticism, but the skepticism of people like David Robert Grimes is rather militant and prejudiced, and thus difficult to take seriously. He tends to write good articles on social issues, but the article he wrote on water fluoridation was highly dubious. For example, he failed to mention a lot of related counter-arguments (e.g. proven negative synergistic effects of lead uptake in developing brains when exposed to fluoride) and he selectively uses data sets. See this article published in The Lancet which names fluoride as a toxin in neurological development: http://download.thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/laneur/PIIS1474442213702783.pdf?id=eaaQK7ctyw93Lb0ZPhqruReplyDelete

When the first explorers entered the Missouri Ozarks, they encountered a landscape that in many respects would be nearly unrecognizable today. Explorers such as Henry Rowe Schoolcraft described the landscape as thus, " a character of unvaried sterility, consisting of a succession of limestone ridges, skirted with a feeble growth of oaks, with no depth of soil, often bare rocks upon the surface, and covered with coarse wild grass, and sometimes we crossed patches of ground of considerable extent, without trees or brush of any kind". What Schoolcraft was describing was typical of much of todays Taney county and other parts of the southwest and southeast Ozarks.
These open rocky areas, characterized by thin, drought prone soils, harbor plant and animal communities more a kin to the Desert Southwest and western prairies , than to the Midwest.These areas are what we call glades. Six different types of glades occur in Missouri, limestone,dolomite, and chert in the Southwestern Ozarks, sandstone and shale in the northern Ozarks, and to the east, igneous rocks of volcanic origin.
Creatures such as the Striped Scorpion, Texas Brown Tarantula, Western Pygmy Rattlesnake and Greater Roadrunner make their homes in this semi-arid environment. Prickly Pear Cactus and other drought tolerant plants feel right at home here.
There a number of these interesting places that are waiting to be explored, one high quality glade lies in the city limits of Branson Missouri. the Henning Conservation Area. The Henning Conservation Area protects the last remaing sizeable glade left in the Branson vicinity. Those familiar with Harold Bell Wrights story " The Shepard Of The Hills " will find that some of the scenes depicted in the book occured in Henning C. A. This glade contains the rare Smoke Tree and Ashe Juniper which is more commonly associated with the Hill Country of Texas.
In the springtime the glades are covered with the lovely yellow blooms of the Missouri Primrose and the reddish orange blooms of Indian Paintbrush. Summer time brings the delicate purple flowers of the Smoke Tree . Late Summer and early Fall brings forth members of the Sunflower And Daisy families as vibrant yellows rule. All this beauty lies just a short distance from Silver Dollar City on the 76 Strip.
Interpretive signs will tell you the pertinent information about the area and guide you to scenic trails that wind through the glade. This is a must see destination for the Branson visitor who enjoys the great outdoors. In the next installment i will highlight another glade. Stay tuned.

The red peppers and onions dangled overhead. The hams and the venison hung in their paper wrappings, and all the bunches of dried herbs, the spicy herbs for cooking and the bitter herbs for medicine, gave the place a dusty-spicy smell.
Do you remember that description of the attic from Little House in the Big Woods, where Laura and Mary would play house with pumpkins for furniture and a corncob for a doll when the late autumn chill drove them indoors? Maybe, if you're lucky, you've re-visited the world that Ma and Pa worked so hard to sustain with your own little ones recently. It's just as engrossing to read as an adult, and the careful descriptions of domestic endeavor are just as fascinating. I am certain my romantic notions about 'putting up' the summer's bounty in preparation for the winter must stem from reading about this tiny attic when I was a child. And something about those drying herbs hanging from the ceiling – unlike the deer meat – took hold of my imagination and hasn't let go since.
Though I love our vegetable plot in the backyard, I think the perfect garden for life with young children must be a perennial herb garden. It's both manageable and delightful. I wish I had figured this out when my children were babies! Back then I determined with some disappointment that I must be immune to the gardening bug that had struck so many of my friends and family members. The truth was that I simply couldn't get excited about nurturing new life in the backyard when my heart, mind, and body were so wrapped up in nurturing a baby. So I let my husband be the gardener – for awhile. Eventually my kids got bigger, and I found I was capable of forming ridiculous attachments to plants after all.
Last year we planted a small patch of perennial herbs in an area just outside our front door. The children, then two and four years old, loved tasting and smelling the leaves and I loved having fresh herbs available just a few steps from the kitchen. It looked a bit scraggly, but I could at least imagine the plants filling in the bare places and scenting the walk leading to our front door. (Remember, I'm dreaming of bunches of herbs drying from the ceiling). I was positively stunned to see the tiny sorrel leaves pushing up through the chilly dirt this March. Perennials are magical! How do they do it, harboring life under the dead soil all winter long? But there were the herbs, returning to life with renewed vigor. The thyme began to green, the sage leaves became pliant and fuzzy once again, and by April the cat mint and oregano seemed to have doubled in size. Magic, I tell you.
Perennial herbs are easy to grow. You don't need to obsess over their care or expend stores of creative energy that you'd rather save for higher priority pursuits. They don't need endless hours of bright sun like fickle eggplants and peppers, many are beautiful and feature delicate flowers, and the fragrance that floats gently in the air around a patch of them will delight any harvester. Children, who are so much closer to the ground (and so much more comfortable in a squat) are ideal candidates for the job! Plus, the sensory pleasures of herbs are most available to small people who are possessed of incredible powers of observation. Often I send my three year old out with a pair of green plastic safety scissors to snip a few leaves for dinner. He returns to the kitchen a moment later, immensely pleased with himself, carrying in a contribution to our meal picked by his hands alone.
Perennial herbs are fun to grow and harvest with kids, and fun to cook with too. One of the children had a nasty cough this morning. We were out of our favorite tea, but then I remembered the mint growing outside, already big enough to spare plenty of leaves. Out came the safety scissors. We snipped three small branches, covered them in boiling water, added honey, and waited five minutes. Our "homemade" mint tea was a great success, soothing an irritated throat and delighting the children with its simplicity and refreshing taste. Try it! If you're feeling fancy, call it a tisane. Have a homemade tea party.
Make lavender sugar. Fry sage leaves for pizza. Have a child snip chives into tiny pieces to sprinkle on roasted potatoes, or blend olive oil and herbs for a pretty green drizzle that children can pour onto their own bowl of soup. Fill a vase with flowering herbs together to enliven a room in preparation for summer house guests. Sing Wild Mountain Thyme (a la Dan Zanes and Dar Williams) while you dig holes for baby thyme transplants in the yard. Sit in the sunshine amidst your hardy herbs and conduct tasting and smelling experiments. Who can – with closed eyes – identify the lemony sorrel, the sharp oregano?
The growing season is long, your labor will be relatively little, and your children will happily sniff their way through summer. The baby probably won't destroy anything (and even if you think she did, it may very well come back next year!). It'll be a lovely garden plot to share. Then one day, months from now, just as winter is finally over, you'll notice little green leaves on an oregano plant that had seemed long dead. And it will feel like a gift.

Described by police as 'a prize catch', Yakub Memon, 33, is an accountant whose brother, Ibrahim 'Tiger' Memon, is one of Bombay's underworld gang leaders and the man who allegedly plotted and executed the bombings. The Home Minister, S B Chavan, said that Yakub Memon was 'a conspirator and financier' of the blasts which ripped through Bombay's Stock Exchange and several crowded bazaars.
Indian security sources said yesterday that Mr Memon had expressed fears that his family now would be 'eliminated' by Pakistani authorities. Mr Memon told his interrogators that he and his family had been held 'like hostages' in an army compound in Karachi.
Pakistan's alleged role emerged with Mr Memon's confession that the day before the explosions, he and his family flew to Dubai, where he was met by Pakistani officials who then flew them to Karachi. On arrival, Mr Memon was given a Pakistani passport, a national ID card and a driving licence.
Mr Memon is also accused of providing over pounds 30,000 for some of the terrorist recruits to travel to Pakistan for explosives training. Pakistan has always denied any connection with the Bombay blasts.
Relations between Pakistan and India, always seething, are now worse. Pakistan is threatening to shut the Indian consulate in Karachi, and in Islamabad the secret police are harassing Indian diplomats and their families. Armed with Mr Memon's testimony and his fake Pakistani ID papers, Indian authorities are preparing to renew their battle to have the US and Europe denounce Pakistan as a terrorist nation.
The arrest of Yakub Memon is seen as the first breakthrough in the Indian police's 18-month investigation into the Bombay bombings. The police had tried to camouflage their failure by the much-publicised arrest of a film idol, Sanjay Dutt, for allegedly buying a semi-automatic rifle from a member of the Memon gang.
The actor's ties with the actual bombers are tangential at best, and the charges against him have only infuriated the press and the public against the investigators.Reuse content

I have never been much of a fan of The Rock. My love of professional wrestling tapered off around the time I was about 15 years old, and that was before The Rock's heydey. His movies (the ones I have seen) have been marginal at best in my opinion. But for a guy who was ushered into the field of acting to capitalize on his popularity and not to win Academy Awards, he has come a long way from The Scorpion King. What I liked about "Snitch" is it's the anti-action movie. I expected a movie like the terrible "Last Stand" starring Ah-nold Schwarzenegger. I expected fabricated car chases and shootouts where the bad guys must be shooting blanks because they are unable to shoot the good guy even when they have a clear shot. I expected scenes where The Rock would beat up 10 guys who all take turns coming at him instead of simply jumping him. But "Snitch" was different. It's a story of the lengths a father will go to help his son. I don't want to give away any spoilers but he goes very far. The Rock -- he's credited as Dwayne Johnson (I guess so viewers take the movie seriously) -- is very believable and does himself proud with some consistent good acting. He shows the trepidation and vulnerability of a father who puts his life on the line to save his son, who is imprisoned after committing a dumb crime. But the actor who steals the movie is John Bernthal, who plays an ex-con trying to live an honest life but is dragged back to the dark side in order to help The Rock, whom he works for doing construction. Michael Kenneth Williams will forever be known as "Omar" and is typecast but does a good turn as a drug dealer. The other supporting cast, including Susan Sarandon as a district attorney, are excellent. "Snitch" moves at a deliberate pace, which gives it more of a natural and believable feel. The few action sequences are good and do not seem overly exaggerated. I will go out on a limb and say this movie will not be nominated for Best Picture, but compared with the junk I've seen so far this year (including the latest Die Hard), I recommend "Snitch".
I'm going to be somewhat vague about the plot to not give away
My wife and I decided we wanted to go see a movie, both of us enjoy action movies and both of us enjoy Dwayne Johnson as an actor. Neither of use really thought it was going to be anything but a bunch of explosions, gun fights, and ass-whippings. I was amazingly surprised at how far Johnson has come in his acting ability since Mummy 2/Walking Tall. He showed real and believable emotions in his interactions with his "family" and others. Jon Bernthal was the perfect choice for his role. He showed even with this supporting role he is ready to be a major lead in my opinion. Susan Sarandon played her job as a career politician to the absolute limit.
If you are looking for a generic action movie, go see Die-Hard. If you want to see the story of how far parents will go for their children see this movie.
This movie marks the departure of Dwayne Johnson from action actor to dramatic actor and the transformation works. Johnson demonstrates a surprising aptitude for dramatic acting as his character struggles with a number of distressing issues. The problem with the movie is the story. It's premise is implausible. The main character's son is busted on drug charges and he is in fact guilty, which makes him a far less sympathetic character. Nevertheless, that doesn't stop his father, played by Johnson, from coming to his son's assistance, albeit as unbelievable as it, and the entire movie hinges on the audience having to believe that the son is a victim, which he is not. If a movie needs a victim, then the victim should in fact be a victim. Another interesting character is the drug dealer played by Benjamin Bratt who plays the role effectively. Susan Sarandon and Barry Pepper also provide excellent performances as an ambitious DA and an undercover vice police officer respectively. Despite the flaws in the story, this is still a good movie and one that is worth watching.
Dwayne Johnson better known has The Rock, was thought of to be like
another Arnold Schwarzenegger, a muscle bound action hero who acts
tough and shouts out funny one liners. But then he did the movie
Gridiron Gang(2006),and my opinion of him changed, he took a little
departure from action films, and took a stab at drama, and he gave a
pretty descent performance, and he showed that he can act.
John(Dwayne Johnson) has his own construction business, is also happily married with a daughter. But Johns happy life is quickly turned upside, when his teenage son from another marriage is arrested for drug possession, cause a friend set him up. John not wanting to sit back and do nothing, is determined to get him out of prison. He volunteers to go undercover to infiltrate a drug cartel in hopes that it will get his son out of prison, with the help of U.S. Attorney(Susan Sarandon) and a D.E.A. agent(Barry Pepper), but will John pull it off?
I disagree with the critics, I thought the crime drama was very real. And when it was getting intense, you the audience feel it also. Dwayne Johnson gives a great performance, like he did in Gridiron Gang. You won't think of him as The Rock, but Dwayne Johnson the actor. Barry Pepper is good, so is Susan Sarandon.
Snitch is a searing indictment against the current drug laws and the
fact that the draconian principles behind them. As we see in this film
it forces those ensnared to become police informants on friends to get
themselves out of a jackpot. Young Rafi Gavron gets himself in such a
jackpot as a friend who does deal drugs sets Gavron up beautifully with
enough Ecstasy to guarantee at least 10 years in Federal Penitentiary.
Young Gavron can work his way out of his jackpot, but the problem is that other than the kid who set him up, he doesn't know anyone in the illegal drug trade.
Dwayne Johnson is the kid's father and a working man who owns a construction company. He's divorced from Melina Kanakaredes, Gavron's mother and now he's got a second wife and child. Still he sees US Attorney Susan Sarandon and she's small comfort. She's running for elective office and is looking to get some big drug fish as notches on the prosecutorial gun.
So Johnson volunteers to bring in the big fish himself. Now he offers the use of his trucks to be drug couriers. But Sarandon and DEA agent Barry Pepper keep him in the game hoping for a bigger fish. Soon enough its one of the biggest fishes out there, a veritable whale in Mexican cartel leader Benjamin Bratt.
For action fans Snitch will definitely satisfy you. But also Dwayne Johnson creates a real character not a superhero. He's just an average man who is really putting himself in harm's way for his son.
The film reminds me a lot of both versions of 3:10 To Yuma where Van Heflin and Christian Bale are just citizens pressed into some disagreeable action like Johnson for the forces of law and order. There are also elements of the Robert Mitchum classic The Friends Of Eddie Coyle where Mitchum gets caught in the switches between the law and his criminal pals and is forced into the role of informer. The difference is that Mitchum is a petty crook and Johnson's a stand-up guy.
Susan Sarandon will chill you no end as the ambitious US Attorney who knows these laws are foul, but will use them for her own purposes. Also Barry Pepper as the law enforcement professional has some qualms and conscience. But even he's looking for the big bust and is willing to put Johnson on the line for it.
Snitch deals with the federal drug laws, but here in New York we pioneered that with the draconian Rockefeller drug laws. The sooner they're repealed the better, but we have to get through to some politicians who parade their law and order credentials by sponsoring such things.
This is a film both entertaining and informative and a real triumph for Dwayne Johnson.
Dwayne "the rock" Johnson hands down did an amazing job portraying the father who would go to any length to save his son! I wasn't expecting this movie to be this good but it had me. I wanted to immediately know what was going to happen next. Although this movie doesn't seem so realistic it is very intense and you want to know how each scene is going to turn out. If you are looking for a good action packed drama then this movie is definitely for you. I would recommend to go see this movies while it's out in theaters. It is by far a great entertaining movie and the characters believability in the movie is great! Although if you are a critic on films which aren't realistically possible then maybe this isn't for you. But overall I would give the rocks performance in this film an A.
I expected this to be a more physical type of movie, more suited to The
Rock, but it actually wasn't that at all. He plays the role of a dad
caught between two rival gangs: the DEA and a drug cartel. The stakes:
get his son out from prison where he pretty much was tricked into
The part that I felt most vividly about was this dirty aspect of the law called Minimum Mandatory Sentencing. A kid receives a package from a friend, filled with MDMA pills and then is caught by the police. The law required that he either rat somebody out or serve a minimum of 10 years in jail. That pretty much is the end of life for an 18 year old kid. I wonder, what if Dwayne Johnson's character would have been a tough muscle guy with a lot of guns? Wouldn't he feel it "mandatory" to kill at least two prosecutors?
The bottom line is that the movie had, beside the obvious thriller action bit, a deeper message about rigid laws that force, nothing more than the threats to your family that a gangster would use. I quite liked the film. The quality of it, though, was more like that of a TV movie. It must have been low budget, or at least it looked like that. Besides some of the names in the cast and the message I was talking about above, it was quite ordinary.
I went into this film alone, on a lazy Saturday to get my mind off things. I wasn't expecting much, but I didn't want it to be a waste of 11 bucks. Knowing the market of action/thriller blockbusters, I guess I was expecting cars blowing up, gun fights all through the movie, and some crazy, somewhat unrealistic hand to hand combat by our huge friend Dwayne Johnson. I was expecting you're average, predictable "normal citizen suddenly becomes Jason Bourne" type action packed movie. If you're expecting that, and ONLY that, you will be somewhat disappointed. Lucky for me, I am a huge film buff and am open to sitting through any movie of any type and I just look for something entertaining, and this movie did not disappoint in that regard. The first hour and a half of it can legitimately be classified as more of a suspense-drama than a thriller. The screenplay wasn't anything amazing, but I do think Dwayne Johnson might have thrown himself in the eye of some producers and directors who write him off as no talent. His acting made the movie as believable as it was, and along with some of the supporting characters, and gritty suspenseful situations, this film found a way to intrigue me more than I thought it would have. The quote at the end of the film spoke volumes as to what the message of the movie was, and I think it was very well put together. If you're going to see this movie solely for action/entertainment value, then you might not be so happy with your investment, but if you want a well rounded, legitimate movie to go when you're bored or with a friend, I would recommend Snitch.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
I would normally expect to see Dwayne Johnson in either a silly comedy (Tooth Fairy) or an action packed drama (the upcoming G.I. Joe: Retaliation). This film was neither. There was not a lot of action in this film; it was more of a psychological thriller. I did not think that I would really like this film and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised. The trailer told the main gist of the film where John Matthew's (Dwayne Johnson) son is wrongly imprisoned and John will do anything to get him released. He strikes a deal with Joanne Keeghan (Susan Sarandon) who is the federal prosecutor, to help catch bad guys. In order to even get starting in figuring out how he is going to help Jason (Rafi Gavron), John has to get introduced to the dark side (so to speak). He discovers that one of his new employees, Daniel James (Jon Bernthal) may have some insight and so the partnership begins. The roller-coaster ride that these two take definitely keeps the story interesting. With the introduction of the cartel and its regional leader Juan Carlos "El Topa" Pintera (Benjamin Bratt), things really start to heat up. I can tell you this much, by the time you get to the middle of the film you will be thinking, how the heck is he going to get himself out of this mess. This film is supposedly based on a true story; if that is true than our legal system has gone hay-wire and some laws should really be amended. I think that the film succeeded in delivering the message that it intended to deliver. I just want to add that it was hard to see the "Rock" as a guy who really didn't know how to fight, but he is still pretty easy on the eyes. This film was pretty fast-paced and there were not a lot of lull moments (although there were a couple), which gives the film added appeal. I am glad to see Dwayne stretching his wings. Is he ready to do Hamlet? No, but he was not terrible in this film. I think that former stunt coordinator turned director; Ric Roman Waugh did a halfway decent job for his major film. Kudos! Although I am teetering between amber and green for this film, I am going to go ahead and give this film a green light.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Hey guys, I'm giving this 7 out of 10. I liked it! Good setup and good
When a friend offers to send him a package of ecstasy pills, teenager Jason Collins (Rafi Gavron) is more than a little reluctant, but still curious. He accepts, and bam, he's arrested for drug distribution and sentenced to 10 years. Kid's doomed unless he sells out somebody else, which he can't. He knows nobody in the drug scene. End of the line? Not if his dad John Matthews can help it. Good old man of action Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson slips into the market to sell the baddies out himself, and a tight action thriller ensues. "Snitch" delivers a solid plot, tension, drama and effective action in the right places. At the same time, it raises interesting observations about US drug laws.
"Inspired by true events," one of the first lines on the screen said. Oh well, I thought. Another one of those. Sells better, huh? Then, I learned about those true events going on in the US legal system. Wait a minute, a boy is caught with a box of ecstasy pills no evidence he wanted to sell them, no criminal record and he gets a mandatory minimum of 10 years in jail?! Um... This is a country where pedophiles and rapists can go free.
It reminded me of an interview with US economist Jeffrey Miron that, just a coincidence, I'd read the same day in German newspaper "Der Spiegel". Legalize drugs already, he says. Portugal did it, and they're fine! People here take them anyway! The nation could save tons of money, crime rates would go down, less people would die. Interesting, I thought as I watched the movie. Instead, there's expensive drug laws possibly doing more harm than good.
I was impressed with the detail put into the main characters. Matthews has two families: his ex-wife and son, and his current wife and little daughter. We see the effects of his actions - past, as a bad father, and present, as a drug informant on both sides. We are also introduced to a ex-convict colleague he teams up with, that guy's family and the effects on them when things get tough. A rich plot and lot of tension derive from these back stories.
To boot, Susan Sarandon deserves special mention as the US District Attorney on the kid's case. Introduced as a cold, cynical bitch, she alternates between law enforcement, her agenda as a candidate for Congress, and eventually doing the right thing. But is it for the right reasons? She's an interesting character I could never completely dislike. Very nice performance.
All that said, "Snitch" isn't a deep masterpiece of modern cinema. Although slow-paced, it's designed as an action movie, with flashy stunts, a big ol' shootout and fist fights. The writing is effect- conscious, and so is the shaky-cam direction.
Looking around the Internet, I see "Snitch" receiving mixed reviews. Personally, I think this movie is well above average. Seeing it in the wake of the random and bad "A Good Day to Die Hard", I'll admit I was on the lookout for "this is how it's done, bitches" moments. Here are some: "The Rock" delivers a good performance in a rare serious role, a solid cast supports him, there's thought in the plot, characters are well- drawn with fleshed-out back stories, and they develop. Tangible stakes amount to "Breaking Bad"-level suspense, and you get well-placed, effective action scenes. Overall, "Snitch" makes for an evening well spent.

With summer right around the block, I thought I'd put together a list of the top summer beauty essentials, that no one NEEDS but everyone SHOULD HAVE.... So here are my 3 summer "MUSTS" that are light n' fresh (sounds like a laundry detergent.) Ohh I picked some at every price, b/c why not?
Surf Spray: Unfortunately, spending every day at the beach just isn't possible! Bumhummer. But seriously, you can still get that "au natural" beach look wherever! Salt-water spray is perfect for all hair types and this style gives your hair a break from constantly styling it with the hot tools. Straight hair? Not my problem but NOT to worry...
Braid you luscious straight hair first and spray the product directly onto the braid. Continue with your usual morning beauty routine, remove the braid, and have what will be the perfect waves.
Tinted Moisturizer (with SPF): Because of the summer heat and humidity, I usually transition into a lighter foundation. You still get coverage with the bonus of SPF protection (an absolute must!) I find that the "heavier" foundations don't usually offer this protection…shame. The Shiseido moisturizer is even extremely waterproof! I wore it everyday when I was a swimmer.
Cream Blush: I almost considered doing a separate "obsessions" post for this stuff! That is how much I love it! It is so easy to apply; you don't even need a brush! That means this stuff can travel in the beach bag with ya! Ohh and here is a little secret…it also doubles as a lip stain and eye shadow. Seriously! It is a 3 for 1.
ps: Cream blush usually doesn't come off in the pool or gym. Fun Fact.

I can't tell you how excited I am about the opportunity Bassmaster.com has given me with this column. My wife Bobbi and I — along with our son Mason and daughter Makayla — are excited about sharing our experiences on the road with all the great fans of our sport.
With this column I'll not only be sharing some great tips to help you catch more fish, but also a behind-the-scenes look at life on the Tournament Trail as we camp our way through the 2013 Elite Series.
There's only one problem. I don't know what to name the column. So, I'm going to leave that up to you.
Give me your best name for our column, and if it's selected you'll win a prize pack loaded with good fishing stuff, including a Wright and McGill Victory reel, several bags of Tight Lines UV plastics, some Trokar Hooks, some Gamma line and a Chapmaniac T-shirt. Just post a comment to this blog with your suggested name, and I'll pick a winner before next week's entry.
I could write a book after the 2012 season and last week's experiences, but I'll keep it short and sweet.
First, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of our family, friends and fans. All of your texts, emails and Facebook messages mean the world to me, and I hope to get the chance to thank each of you individually.
We had a great homecoming in Lake Quivira, Kan., from our neighbors and friends and a couple of television crews. It's something my family and I will never forget.
The Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Angler of Year title is just starting to set in. As I sit here typing this, I'm looking at the Bassmaster Open, Elite Series and Angler of the Year trophies, and I'd be remiss if I didn't say it's been an incredible year for the Chapman family. What's funny is we wrapped up the season on Sunday last week, and on Monday we were already scouting next year's schedule.
We headed up to the St. Lawrence River and checked it out. It's a huge place, and that tournament should be a lot of fun for us fish and for fans to watch.
I'll get a lot more in-depth in future columns, but I wanted to introduce the column to you right away and find a good name for it.
So, what should be the name of the column?

: Yet another "itchy scalp" case.
I've been co-washing for about 3 years -- the first 2, I was more mod-cg, and this past year I've been following cg more closely. In all that time, I have
had an itchy scalp.
A few months ago, I gave water-only washing a go. I was thorough with deep massaging while "washing," and despite my scalp feeling clean and my hair soft -- no excessive grease whatsoever -- I developed an extremely itchy scalp after 2 weeks. I quit water-only and went back to my normal routine.
My scalp is
itching! It's driving me mad! I went back to the exact same routine as before; I've tried clarifying with various things -- sulfate shampoo, bs & acv -- all to no avail. Tea Tree oil helps for awhile, but hasn't been a solution. I cannot pinpoint the problem.
I did see a post recently about Tresemme Naturals Moisture containing an ingredient that irritates scalps. Does anyone know if this is true? I started using this conditioner last fall; however, I would've thought an irritation or allergy would've presented well before now.
I'm at my wit's end. If anyone has
suggestions -- please, please, please offer them.
2a/b/c ~ high to normal porosity ~ medium density & texture
