The Safest Lie(2015)
A novel by Angela Cerrito
Nine-year-old Anna Bauman is one of the Jewish children who Jolanta (code name for the real-life World War II Resistance spy Irena Sendler) smuggles out of the Warsaw ghetto. Anna, given a new name and false papers, must keep her true identity secret, first at a Catholic orphanage and then with a foster family. Ironically, she discovers that the most difficult part isn't remembering her new identity, but trying not to forget the old one. Anna's story, suspenseful and deeply moving, sheds light on yet another aspect of the Holocaust: rescued children who lost not only their loved ones, but their very identities and Jewish heritage.

Behind the Screen
Friday, January 18, 2008; 12:30 PM
Washington Post film critic Desson Thomson was online Friday, Jan. 18, at 12:30 p.m. ET to discuss acting itself, as seen this year, and in the past. What is about Daniel Day-Lewis's performance that makes "There Will Be Blood" so powerful? Why does Javier Bardem capture us so powerfully in "No Country for Old Men"? What performances this year -- or in the memorable past -- really held your attention and why?
Thomson, a movie critic at The Washington Post for 15 years, was raised in England where he was entranced, like most, by Hollywood movies. It was a visit to see David Lean's "Lawrence of Arabia," that made him realize movies had to be a part of his life.
A transcript follows.
A transcript follows.
Desson Thomson: Hello folks. As we near the Oscars or the non Oscars, depending on whether the writers' strike nixes the show, it seems like a great time to get to what the awards -- at least in some part -- are all about. I am talking about the performances that affected us this year. What reached you? What didn't? Talk to me baby.
New York, N.Y.: I must be the only person who really didn't like Annie Hall -- jittery Diane Keaton and misogynist Woody just didn't do it for me. I'm glad he's found peace in his life but I really have to wonder why actors agree to star in his stinkers. I know that Scarlett Johannsen was very helpful in reviving press interest in his movies but I think it was bad for her career. It's come to the point that when I see an actor signing up for one of his films I just assume their career is going nowhere.
Desson Thomson: Ha! I know what you mean. But even a blind New Yorker can find the occasional acorn. I mean Woody not you. And he produces a Match Point, which was a fabulous movie. I think the problem is, he has become a hack unto himself. He's more obsessed with having made a movie than making a good one. Or so it seems all too often.
Arlington, Va.: Got to see There Will Be Blood last Friday night at the AFI in Silver Spring! I will be VERY surprised if Daniel Day-Lewis doesn't WIN the Oscar for Best Actor, as he was an extremely powerful presence on screen. And I kind of interpreted his character as Bill The Butcher turned oilman.
But what fascinated me more than anything else was the format of the movie, in that it wasn't an early 20th-century Syriana, depicting oil and capitalism and greed. Rather, I found it to be a very strong and fascinating study of Daniel Day-Lewis's character, and how he essentially self-destructed.
As to the pacing of the movie, the slowness didn't bother me. Rather, I felt the pacing to be very deliberate, very patient. A very well-crafted movie, in my opinion!
Desson Thomson: I agree with you a thousand per cent. Well said. It's a very powerful movie and I intend to see it many more times for its many brilliant qualities.
Washington, D.C.: What did you think of Mad Money? It looks stupid to me and a waist of Keaton's talent.
Desson Thomson: Haha. I like the "waist" of talent pun, intended or not. Ann Hornaday dismissed this with such authority I wouldn't dream of seeing it.
Washington, D.C.: I was very disappointed in American Gangster.
Desson Thomson: I was too. But perhaps you could elucidate why?
Washington, D.C.: I adored Juno. Great ensemble.
Desson Thomson: Many liked this movie too. Me among them.
Waldorf, Md.: Have you heard of any new movie theaters opening up or anymore closing?
Desson Thomson: None either way, unless someone has news to share with all of us?
Washington, D.C.: With the passing of the CO Dupont Circle, we've only got complexes from here on out. I wonder if chatters could share memories from movie palaces gone by, Kiss of the Spider Woman at the MacArthur in Georgetown (1985), Rope at the Key (1984) Manon of the Spring at the Biograph (1987), Indochine at the Outer Circle (1993) Blair Witch Project at the Janus (2001) and Eyes Wide Shut (2001) at the CO Dupont Circle. Anyone?
Desson Thomson: Great question.
Weston, Fla.: FIrst, I am 66 years old and don't usually watch a movie more than once. However, I have watched Michael Mann's "Heat" several times. It's not the Godfather, but it gets better each viewing. To me it's almost a classic. Your thoughts on "Heat" please.
Desson Thomson: I enjoyed it very much. And I know what you mean about repeated viewings. I believe Michael Mann has a hypnotic quality to his sequences, which are powered literally and figuratively by music. His stories and scenes have a flow which always get to me. And Heat, of course, has that incredible meeting between two great actors for the first time: Pacino and De Niro.
washingtonpost.com: 'Youth': Coppola's Dizzying Spin On Fleeting Time ( Post, Jan. 11)
Berkeley, Calif.: Hi Desson,
Thank you for such wonderful chats! Always enjoy them. I'm a law student who probably spends too much time watching movies, reading about movies, dreaming about movies, etc. I am often delighted and even overjoyed by what I see, but "Once" captivated me to the point where I felt (and feel) changed. Six months later, not a day goes by when something doesn't remind me of the movie. After I saw it, I went back to read reviews as always and I don't know if I've ever seen such rapture for a movie. Kenneth Turan actually said that "Once" was going to come into your life and make it whole, and many reviewers spoke in similarly dazzled tones. That said, why oh why is it not getting more love from the awards circuit? Just too strong a year? Unknown cast? Not enough glitz? I try not to get too caught up in the politics of the Oscar race, but I feel a little hurt somehow this year because there seems to be such a chasm between popular and critical reception ("Once" and also "Ratatouille" come to mind) and award recognition. Thanks!
Desson Thomson: Thank you so much. Very nice of you to say.
I felt similar rapture for Once and put it on my top 10 list. I know what you mean by the apparent forgetfulness of critics for the film at the end of the year. I hope that it resurfaces somewhere in the Oscar kudos list--at the very least for its fabulous central song. Saw it again recently and it had lost none of its powerful innocence.
Cassandra's Dream: I got a charge out of this sentence from your review:
(These British ears could also easily detect a Scot and an Irishman playing English.)
I guess Woody thought 99 percent of his viewing audience wouldn't know the difference...but he didn't reckon with Desson! Keep up the good work!
Desson Thomson: Ha! Thanks, mate. (There was a lot of negative stuff from British critics, at least the ones I know, towards Match Point too. They felt it was a very sanitized, sentimental view of English life.)
Iowa: I'm really, really hoping that Keri Russell's performance in "Waitress" isn't overlooked despite being so early in the movie season.
Desson Thomson: Me too. She was terrif.
Boston, Mass.: Hi Desson,
I'm going to see "There Will Be Blood" tomorrow, but I feel like I shouldn't go until I've already seen "No Country For Old Men." Please assure me that I'm making this up.
Desson Thomson: You should see both in any order you want.
Washington, D.C.: The latest Francis Ford Coppola film must be really awful if it's heading out of the E St. Cinema after only one week (down to 2 showings a day this week, which usually means it's on the way out). I realize the reviews were uniformly awful, but feel I should see it anyway, because, well, it's FFC's first film in over a decade. Have you seen it? If so, is it really that awful? And if so, should I go see it anyway? I saw all my "must see" movies over the holidays, and a very good lot they were (Atonement, Kite Runner, No Country, Diving Bell, Great Debaters and more) so can can afford to take a gamble. I've not yet seen TWB Blood, but that's because I want to be well rested for a 3-hour, serious film.
Desson Thomson: Yes, get the rest for TWBB.
I have posted my Youth Without Youth review for you.
Jargon: Who is John Anderson and why is he "special"? Is this a euphemism? Has the Post run out of reviewers?
Lots o' questions, but my main point concerns language like "despite director Reeves's tenacious grip on the film's visual signature, the not-so-novel DV view of the world"
I assume that he means Digital Video, but why not spell it out, or has this acronym entered common parlance?
washingtonpost.com: 'Cloverfield's' Monster Also Behind the Lens ( Post, Jan. 18)
Desson Thomson: John Anderson is a terrific person and movie reviewer who reviews for Newsday and Variety. (I presume by special, you mean the "special to" credit that we use for freelancers.) He's based in LA these days. He is filling in for Stephen Hunter who is on book leave. I agree, he should have spelled it out. I don't think it's quite universal yet, in the way that, for instance CGI (computer generated imagery) has become.
Aspen Hill, Md.: What did you think of Christian Bale's job in "Rescue Dawn"? Fairly Oscar-worthy (at least in terms of getting a nod -- not that he necessarily deserves the award) in my opinion. Any thoughts?
Desson Thomson: He was really good in that movie. But it was a small movie in the greater scheme of things Hollywood and I fear it will be overlooked.
Washington, D.C.: I think No Country for Old Men will take home a lot of awards.
Desson Thomson: It is certainly a huge front runner, and the Coen brothers are due many things. And Javier Bardem has a virtual lock on the supporting actor award.
Baltimore, Md.: Re D.C. movie theaters gone by: #1, the MacArthur wasn't actually in Georgetown, it was in the Palisades on MacArthur Boulevard. Last movie I saw there was Aguirre The Wrath of God. There was also a large, very large, theater in Spring Valley on Massachusetts Avenue that closed and was subsequently torn down. I remember seeing The Man Who Would Be King there, but I am darned if I can remember the name of the theater.
And long time Washington moviegoers are most fond of recalling the sadly departed original Circle Theaters that were on Pennsylvania Ave. near Washington Circle. They were called The Circle and the Inner Circle, which was why the theaters up on Wisconsin Avenue got dubbed The Outer Circle. The Circle was a repertory house in the days before video. Daytime double features back in the late '60s cost a buck!
Desson Thomson: Ah yes, I remember all of these places. The theater you are trying to remember was called the KB Apex.
Penelope Cruz/Volver:: we finally saw it this week. Wow! She is simply mesmerizing. I even missed some of the subtitles because I was watching her so intently. Yes, she's stunningly beautiful, but it was her performance that kept me riveted. Funny, haunting, assured, just amazing .Spanish, English, I don't care. She just needs to be in more films.
Desson Thomson: Absolutely! Agreed!
Alexandria, Va.: Isn't Forest Whitaker amazing? I think is Idi Amin was one of the best acting performances ever, and then compare that to his carefully nuanced James Forest St. in The Great Debaters. Wow.
Desson Thomson: Forest W. is a treasure on screen. You should see him in everything, including Ghost Dog: the Way of the Samurai, Bird, and A Rage in Harlem. But to borrow from Borat: As for his role in "Battlefield Earth", not so much.
Eastern Market, D.C. -- no movie theater here: Hi Desson.
Glad you thought highly of Zodiac, as did I. I'm awaiting the director's cut DVD.
What did you make of Atonement? I was actually annoyed while watching it and the gimmicky music score grated my nerves after about the 3rd time of hearing the typewriter clacking.
In stark, stark contrast, I fell in love with There Will Be Blood and its unconventional music score. I cannot recall ever being more mesmerized in a movie theater before.
As your namesake David Thomson blogged yesterday, he predicts the Atonement director will win the Oscar cuz there's no justice in this world!
I for one hope Blood will sweep the awards -- it's one of the most accomplished pieces of American cinema, IMHO.
Desson Thomson: Well hey, hey Eastern Market. I am glad you appreciated Zodiac. A supreme movie. And I am among the few, apparently, who wasn;t quite as enamored of Atonement as I should have been, I suppose. It's a good movie, though. I will say that. But emotionally, I wasn't as engrossed as others have been. As for There Will Be Blood, I know I am a stuck record, but what a great film. Hope it cleans up too.
Harrisburg, Pa.: Will the Oscar nominations show any love to "3:10 to Yuma"? Ben Foster, maybe? Not the best movie of the year, but I was disappointed the Globes didn't even nominate it for anything.
Desson Thomson: It hasn't been widespread but the movie has shown up on critics' lists here and there. If you check out Film Comment which culled a lot of critics' top 10 lists (which I was a part of), you'll see it made an appearance.
Cinemas of yesteryear: Anything and everything I ever saw at The Foundry -- Ponette, Kolya, The Color of Paradise, The Spanish Prisoner ...
Desson Thomson: Good movies, lousy theater. But it was near good Vietnamese restaurants in Georgetown.
Ocala, Fla.: In memory of the great but crazy Bobby Fischer, whose death was announced today, are there any outstanding movies set in the chess world besides "Searching for Bobby Fischer?"
Desson Thomson: Good question: I recall most immediately The Seventh Seal by Ingmar Bergman in which a medieval knight plays chess with Death himself. And wasn't that sexy scene in 1968's The Thomas Crown Affair, between Steve McQueen and Faye Dunaway, when they play footsie under the table during a game of chess?
Check this out too:
Rosslyn, Va.: See Forest Whitaker in The Crying Game. Great flick!
Desson Thomson: Oh duh, I can't believe I forgot that.
Washington, D.C.: I actually feel this was a good year for films.
No Country for Old Men
There Will be Blood
To name a few. I also applaud Ben Affleck and Sean Penn's directorial efforts.
Desson Thomson: I agree with you. Although I would applaud Casey Affleck, who was the real revelation in "Gone Baby Gone" (not to mention the "Jesse James" movie) rather than his semi talented brother.
Washington, D.C. is wrong: About all theaters here being cineplexes. We have a wonderful theater in The Avalon in upper NW on Connecticut Avenue, and if you're willing to drive an hour or so, the Senator in Baltimore. If you clicksters have not seen a movie at the Avalon, do it -- this is the way movies were meant to be seen. It's also in the middle of a commercial block, with a few restaurants and a fabulous funky clothing store, Catch Can. Don't do the mall cineplexes!
Desson Thomson: Hear hear!
How many were there?:
I posed this to Ann last week, and she liked the question.
Some friends sprang this on me after seeing THERE WILL BE BLOOD.
Were there really twins? Or did Eli have some kind of personality disorder?
Desson Thomson: I believe your latter interpretation is mine.
Palisades: The MacArthur was not in Georgetown -- it was in the Palisades neighborhood. It, like the Biograph, which was in Georgetown, is now a CVS. Ugh.
Don't forget that within the past two years, we also lost the great single-screen "Cinema" theater on Wisconsin Avenue, and its neighbor, the great six-screen, auditorium-seating (which was a good thing) and well-managed Wisconsin Avenue 6 theater.
Desson Thomson: Yes, we have lost a lot.
Arlington, Va.: Deeson,
Good to have you back!
It seems to me that The Silence of the Lambs has become the gold standard for psychological/serial killer movies. Do you find that to be the case? If so, why? Don't get me wrong, The Silence of the Lambs is a good movie, but I can still think of several other psychological/serial killer movies that are FAR scarier (psychologically) and far more creepy than Silence.
Just off the top of my head, Copycat and Se7en.
Desson Thomson: Thanks for the welcome. I think that Silence has a subtly creepy quality, not to mention one of the top 5 movie villains of All Time in Hannibal Lecter. I loved Se7en too.
Bucket List: Hi, Desson. Have you seen Bucket List? Ann's chat last week had people saying, it can't be that bad, it's a feel-good movie with 2 great actors going at it, go out and enjoy. Well, I've seen it, and I'm afraid yes, it is that bad. Part of the problem is that it so trivializes the cancer experience. I mean, I realize they can't, or don't want, to show actual effects of cancer and cancer treatment, but these guys might well have been misdiagnosed, judging from their symptoms and treatment. Aaarrgh.
Desson Thomson: Based on reviews I have little desire to see it, and your posting makes that lack of enthusiasm even more pronounced!
Alexandria, Va.: What do you hear about "Honeydripper," the new blues flick highlighted on CNN.com today. When's it coming here?
Desson Thomson: It's coming Feb Uno and Ann Hornaday is reviewing it for Style. Haven't seen yet.
Baltimore, Md.: Zodiac is still getting a lot of Oscar buzz despite its early release, but the same cannot be said for Breach. I found Breach to be far superior to Zodiac, especially in its central storytelling and the performance of Chris Cooper compared to that of Jake Gyllenhaal. Did critics complete forget about this movie?
Desson Thomson: Breach did seem to be forgotten, alas. I liked the movie much but Zodiac was, for me, far more assured in the categories you mention.
Ambler, Pa.: Love your chats!
FYI, my college writing professor chided us for using the phrase you used "one thousand percent." She said there is no such thing as more than one hundred percent.
Desson Thomson: With all due respect to your college professor, who is right in such a dull way, I give you full permission to use a thousand per cent whenever you feel like it. It is so liberating isn't it?
Washington, D.C.: Re: Theatres gone bye -- I saw "She's Gotta Have It" at the Outer Circle. As a Howard student then, I was so very exciting to me. The movie hooked me and I've been a Spike Lee fan since. Prior to that I'd seen Spike's "Joe's Bed-Sty We Cut Heads" screen at the MLK Library downtown.
Desson Thomson: Very cool. Spike was a revelation when he busted out.
Washington, D.C.: Hi Desson! I love your chats! We invoked your name during a discussion last weekend, hoping you could settle a question raised upon our seeing a television commercial for The Spiderwick Chronicles. Here it goes...
I had received passes to see the movie at the end of December. My husband thinks that since the theater release of the movie is in February, this is a very long delay -- meaning that the movie was retooled upon audience reaction during previews in December. I wasn't sure about this, since a six-week delay (the time of the previews we saw and the release date in mid-February didn't strike me as so long).
Can you tell us? Was this movie reworked?
Desson Thomson: Well, I am honored to have my name invoked without a court summons involved. Big movies are very often subjected to preview audiences and re-jiggered accordingly. So I wouldn't be surprised at all. Although such practices tend to strike me as bad and tacky at first blush, there is something to be said for being responsive to audiences so you can build a better mousetrap.
Bethesda, Md.: And don't miss Forest W. in "Fast Times at Ridgmont High" (along with other frequent Oscar contenders Sean Penn and Nicolas Cage). Great stuff.
As for lost theaters, I do miss some of them, not for their "character" (they were claustrophobic and/or dive-y), but simply for the convenient locations. The Dupont one in particular, but also one of the Odeons (I forget which) that used to be in the West End (it was near work, at the time). And I have great memories of seeing "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Rocky Horror" (at midnight, of course) at the Foundry.
Desson Thomson: Ha, yes to all you said.
Washington, D.C.: I didn't write the initial statement, but I too was underwhelmed by American Gangster. I think with the pedigree that the movie possessed, I may have expected more. The biggest problems with this movie occurred in the editing room, which resulted in a movie that had very little flow and LOTS of unnecessary scenes (Could someone please tell Carla Gugino that she needs to give her agent a raise). The movie tries to replicate the "family" aspect of The Godfather and Goodfellas, but does so without falling into the cliches created by other mob movies, and in doing so, it is devoid of a singular tone.
I guess I shouldn't have been surprised considering the number of changes in personnel (actors, directors, and writers) that occurred during the production.
Desson Thomson: I think those are some excellent thoughts on the movie's problems. It amounts to a permanent virus on the left coast: Hollywood overwriting.
RE: Michael Mann's Heat: One of the greatest movies ever made! Though unlike the previous poster, I WILL rank it on the same level as The Godfather. (Just my own personal opinion. Not a shot at the original poster.)
The one thing that burns me about Heat, though, is how it was totally snubbed by the Oscars when it came out. Because I think for such a masterfully crafted and acted movie as that, it deserved Oscar nominations for Best Picture, Director, Actor (De Niro), film editing (the fabulous coffee shop scene and the legendary gun fight in the street), cinematography, sound (the real echos of gunshots), and screenplay.
Desson Thomson: Glad you appreciate this movie!
Philadelphia, Pa.: Actually you can have more than 100 percent literacy. A population is 100 percent literate at the 8th grade level; more than that is above 100 percent. So go for it!
Desson Thomson: I have no idea what this means, but it sounds great.
Underlooked performances, departed venues: A performance that really captivated me this year was Paul Schneider as the brother in "Lars and the Real Girl." The entire ensemble was superb and of course we expect the best from Ryan Gosling, Emily Mortimer, and Patricia Clarkson, but Paul Schneider took what could have been a sit-com-ish role and made it very tender and touching. He was also excellent in the Jesse James movie. My favorite performance of the year was probably Amy Ryan in "Gone Baby Gone," and she seems to be a front-runner for the Oscar. I know you said Bardem is, too, but I would so love to see it go to Hal Holbrook. He broke my heart in "Into the Wild."
I miss the Biograph and the Circle, and I also miss the small AFI theater at the Kennedy Center. We saw many great films there and one of the best evenings ever was when Irene Dunne appeared in person for an interview following one of her movies. I still remember her explanation of why Cary Grant was her favorite leading man: "Don't tell Cary I told you," she said, "but he always said I was the sweetest smelling actress he ever worked with."
Desson Thomson: Fabulous - good stuff. I hear you on all.
Wisconsin: I miss that cinema. My parents took me there for my first R-rated movie: The Commitments. It was the first time I'd ever heard an audience talk back to the screen.
Desson Thomson: Ha, really? They talked back? That's great. I loved that movie. I'll date myself now and tell you the first movies I saw there were Klute and Sleeper.
Re: 1000 percent: That clearly wasn't a math professor. 1000 percent of something is the same thing as times as 10 times that whole something. You agreed with that person 10 times over.
Desson Thomson: I ma getting so immersed in zeros, I am starting to see my math teachers of the past (all of whom who threw their hands up in disbelief at my numerical illiteracy): Mr. Foster, Miss Bostock, Mr. Cairncross...
Austin, Tex.: So the BAFTA nominees were announced this week? Does the American writers' strike affect this awards show at all? Does any U.S. TV outlet have broadcast rights to the BAFTAs? If the strike torpedoes the rest of awards season as it did the Globes but can't touch the BAFTAs, it may be the only full-on red carpet-style awards show we get this year.
Desson Thomson: I seem to remember the BAFTAs can be picked up on a cable channel coz I saw them in the US on one of mine. And it does stand to be the only kudocast (as Varietyspeak would call it) we'll see this year, since the Brits are not on strike.
Petworth, D.C.: I could write an essay on lovely, long-gone theaters. The Circle, The Biograph, The Ontario, the Embassy, The Outer Circle... I could keep going for far too long.
But don't neglect the Uptown, the Avalon and the AFI Silver. Keep them alive people!
Desson Thomson: Agreed. Keep em alive.
Washington, D.C.: I had broken up with a boyfriend and in order to occupy my Sundays which had previously been spent watching soccer (he was English) I went to the Cineplex Odeon to see Chocolate. I was the only person under 75 in the theater and one older woman patted me on the shoulder when she walked by and said "don't worry dear, you'll meet someone."
Desson Thomson: I am so sorry it didn't work out between us.
Washington, D.C.: Hi Desson! Performances I loved this year include Robert Downey Jr. in "Zodiac", Tilda Swinton in "Michael Clayton", Keri Russell in "Waitress", Jennifer Garner in "Juno" (although the entire cast was great, I've never seen JG look so radiant or be so effecting) and Michael Cera in "Superbad." At 32 I am way too old for him, but I do harbor a wee crush!
Desson Thomson: Yes, as Diablo Cody (Juno screenwriter) said of Cera and his impact among girls: You can actually hear teenage girls ovulate as he passes.
The Great Debaters: Hi, Desson. I went to see this film and loved it, but I'm reluctant to take my 11- and 13-year-olds because of the lynching scene. They know a bit of this situation; in fact, two of their grandparents were "freedom riders" and we're very proud of this heritage. But I'm afraid that even if I discuss this situation beforehand, they will have nightmares forever. I don't know how old your children are, but would appreciate your thoughts on this. Or perhaps other chatters can help? Thank you very much.
Desson Thomson: I regret that I haven't had time to see this yet. Good question. And unfortunately we are at the tail end of the chat. If anyone has thoughts on this, I am back on Feb 1. Orf you can raise it with Ann next Friday?
Washington, D.C.: I felt a lot was lacking in the American Gangster script. The acting was fair, but the script didn't call for that extra edge that The Departed had. It tried but failed. Also Denzel didn't bring any to the role that we haven't seen him do before. After much hype, you left thinking that it was only okay.
Desson Thomson: Yep. I can understand that reaction.
Formerly D.C.: Re the poster who asked about memories of D.C. theaters past. I lived in D.C. 1969-1990. My memories are of "mainstream" pornographic movies at midnight at the Biograph on Fridays, such as "Misty Beethoven" and "Behind the Green Door," great for "ending" a Friday night date. Also, wonderful double bills at the old Penn at Penn and 21st, like "Walkabout" and "Zulu" together.
Desson Thomson: You have been around the block, I see.
The MacArthur: The last movie I saw there was "Return of the Jedi" on opening day. I was in the Navy at the time and had worked a 12-hour shift and got off at 06:00 (6 a.m. for you civvies). My friend and I ate breakfast and went to the theater where we took a nap on the lawn nearby before our show time.
I only hope the Uptown can remain. That place has many good movie memories for me.
Desson Thomson: Hear hear.
Union Station, D.C.: Someone misses the Dupont Circle 5? I saw one movie there once and I never went back. What a dump. The Landmark downtown is light years away in quality. There is still the Uptown, though I'm almost hoping that MAC sells it, maybe to the P and G folks, because they don't know what to do with it. I just hope they don't sell it to the church who's renting it on Sundays.
New theaters? I thick the Consolidated folks opened three new ones last year at PG Plaza, Kingstowne and somewhere west of Dulles, but I can't think of any more right now.
Desson Thomson: Thanks for all that.
Re: psychological/serial killer movies: Please don't forget about the often overlooked "Memento." It should have not only won for best original screenplay in 2002, but also been at least nominated for best picture.
Desson Thomson: What a great picture. Was my number one that year.
Washington, D.C.: Hiya Mr Thomson,
Always look forward to the chats. We saw 'The Orphanage' and talk about creepy -- I thought it was much scarier than the 'Freddie'-type horror movies that clue you in when something bad happens by the sudden change in background music. Really a good follow-up, I think, to 'Pan's Labyrinth.'
My question: totally different genre, but, did you see 'The Water Horse'? If so, did you like it (or not)?
Cheers thanks,
Briony (yes, that Briony that was depressed over Atonement)
Desson Thomson: Who can forget that name, Briony. Alas haven't seen the Water Horse. But glad you liked Orphanage as I did.
Waldorf, Md.: Movies that were memorable based on the theater, Blair Witch Project at Outer Circle before it went wide. Got tickets 2 days in advance, got in line, and there was a scalper there! I have never seen that at a movie theater since.
Desson Thomson: A scalper? Seems appropriate for the kind of grass roots success that movie turned out to be.
Daniel Day-Lewis: I haven't seen the movie, only the trailor and while the movie does seem powerful...DDL grates on my nerves in the the TRAILER. I think it's the accent he is working in the movie, it really is jarring to me...anyone else?
Desson Thomson: He is jarring throughout, in an intentional way. But also hypnotically compelling.
Baltimore, Md.: I love a good monster movie and rank The Host among the best movies I saw in '07. I am intrigued by Cloverfield but have not seen anything to indicate that it's worth my $10. Am I better off seeing "There will be Blood" or "The Orphanage" and catching Cloverfield on DVD?
Desson Thomson: You liked the Host too? Great flick! Was on my top 10. I suggest you see Orphanage in case it goes. And see them all. Cloverfield could work just as well on dvd, I'd wager, since it's essentially shot as a point of view video anyway.
Arlington Cinema 'N' Drafthouse: If they ever close that place, I will cry for a year!
Desson Thomson: Great place.
Re BAFTAs: Thank goodness for BBC America! Oh and Up the Villa!
Desson Thomson: You are a true supporter of things British. Good for ya.
Greenbelt, Md.: Even though I was spoiled to the fate of the dog, I went to see 'I Am Legend.' After watching, my major objection to it was that religious faith was brought in. Until that point, it was a great popcorn flick for me. Does anyone out there know why they decided to supercede the science aspect with religion?
Desson Thomson: It sure got cluttered up with some messianic business, which wasn't to my taste--not in that movie anyway.
Richmond, Va.: Cloverfield -- yay or nay?
Or, more importantly, since I've already agreed to see it, should I bring my itty bitty book light?
Desson Thomson: I intend to see it soon and am dreading the vertigo.
Desson Thomson: Thanks everyone for playing. Hope you have a great weekend and we will chat again soon!

text: Urata Manufacturing was a company connected to the Ferengi Alliance that was trading by the early 25th century. A miscalculation in early 2409 by the Ferengi Futures Exchange led to excess inventory and mounting debt. As a result, the business attempted to desperately stabilize its cash flow and liquidized some of its remaining assets through quiet sales. However, this plan failed and the leaders of Urata Manufacturing cooked the books and moved their remaining debt onto a subsidiary that was spun into its own company known as Sluga Military Technology.[1]

Business executives, Christian artists and sports campers rank among 84 groups eager to use high-tech facilities that would otherwise sit empty on the Greenville, S.C., campus. For Furman, 10 frenzied weeks means $1.5 million in revenue, including up to $300,000 in profits.
About 1,800 of the nation's approximately 4,000 colleges and universities host conferences or other meetings for outside groups, according to Unique Venues, the largest marketing firm in the field, with about 900 client schools, up from 600 five years ago. At least 20 have created conference centers to serve this market in the past 10 years, says Unique Venues president Chuck Salem.
The field barely existed two decades ago, says CarolAnn Paul, president of the Association of Collegiate Conference and Events Directors and head of conference services at Wheaton College, in Wheaton, Ill. But by the mid-1990s, she says, hundreds more colleges were marketing spaces. And a new revenue stream from conference fees provided much-needed help in holding down tuition increases.
For colleges challenged to make ends meet, industry experts say outside events can provide critical cash flow and boost name recognition. But tax-exempt schools must make sure they don't run afoul of their core institutional purpose — or the Internal Revenue Service.
"The more income that can be generated during the summer, the less expensive the housing rates have to be for students who live there during the school year," says Eddie Hull, president of the Association of College and University Housing Officers-International.
A conference "really has to be for a mission related to the mission of the university, otherwise there is the potential (to) unintentionally invite upon the university some negative tax implications," he says.
On some campuses, conferences have already become big business:
• University of Nebraska-Lincoln hosted 122 groups last summer, bringing in 12,500 visitors and $2.6 million in gross revenue.
• Wheaton College expects to take in $2 million in gross conference revenue this summer, Paul says, up from $1.6 million in 2003. Thirty percent will be profit, she says, adding that the school pays taxes on a portion of its summer conferencing income.
• Rhodes College in Memphis expects to bring in $600,000 this year, thanks in part to a nine-week institute sponsored by the American Cotton Shippers Association.
• Furman's summer events, including a martial arts camp and a high school enrichment program, will generate $1.5 million.
The savings can be tough to beat. A weekend meeting of the Barbershop Harmony Society cost $20,000 for 200 men at a hotel; it's about $10,000 at Alfred University in Alfred, N.Y., says organizer Rick Collins. And cancer patients and families are staying in campus housing for the first time in the 10-year history of the "Cancer as a Turning Point" conference at Furman. Two nights and six meals cost $140 a person, says founder Jan Adrian — half the cost of hotels and restaurants.
"So many cancer patients have depleted their resources. The more they have to pay, the less likely they are to come," Adrian says. She adds that for technical assistance with multimedia presentations, students charge a fraction of the cost in major cities.
But schools need to be selective, says John Ross, a communications and college marketing consultant in Upperville, Va. A truck-driving school might be appropriate for a community college, he says, but not for a liberal-arts school.
"Institutions are known by what they do," he says. "A portfolio of summer conferences should reflect" a school's mission. "If you do a lot of things outside your mission, then the reputation of the institution becomes fragmented."
Other trade-offs can arise as well. Wheaton College, for instance, wouldn't have space to expand its summer school even if it wanted to, Paul says. And if a building is booked all summer, contractors don't get much time to make repairs and do maintenance.
Still, colleges are thankful for the extra traffic — Alfred University, for instance, enrolls about 20 students a year who attended its summer institutes in science and other subjects.
Making $100,000 in summer profit is helpful, but it's not the primary goal, says Melody McLay, director of summer programs.
"It's kind of an investment in the future," she says. "Of course, it means summer is not a quiet time of year on campus, and there's additional wear-and-tear on our buildings, but with the revenue it brings in and the boost it gives to recruiting, it's all worth it."

The rapid spread of the AIDS virus in Russia has set the stage for an epidemic of tuberculosis unless medical officials move quickly to contain both diseases, an article in the British medical journal The Lancet stated. Tuberculosis readily infects people who have depressed immune systems, and Russian and American researchers who studied Orel Province, southwest of Moscow, found that H.I.V. infections there had risen almost 34-fold from 1997 to 2000.

In its previous three wins, it has been Andrew Hicks and the Belle Chasse offense carrying the load. On Friday night, it was the defense's turn.
Belle Chasse used a stiff defense to blank Chalmette 27-0 before a homecoming crowd.
"Coach preaches to us about being physical every day, and we brought it tonight," senior linebacker Peyton Cooper said. "That was our best defensive performance as a team."
Cooper couldn't recall ever having recorded a shutout since he has being playing for the Cardinals, who improved to 4-1 and rebounded from last week's 44-21 loss to South Terrebonne.
Neither could first-year coach Stephen Meyers, who spent the previous two seasons as defensive coordinator.
"We played tough and we played physical up front, but the main thing is we didn't give up the big play," Meyers said. "The defense did a good job. By far that was their best performance. Chalmette is a good team."
The defense set up two touchdowns and scored another on a 79 yard fumble return by Kazmi Antoine in the final minute that preserved the shutout.
The Belle Chasse offense, which came into the game averaging 38.5 points, wasted little time. The Cardinals scored on their opening possession when quarterback Hicks scampered for a 41-yard gain on fourth-and-2 to give the Cardinals a 6-0 lead.
On Chalmette's ensuing possession, quarterback Dominic Curole completed a pass to Malik Blaise, who fumbled on the play. Belle Chasse linebacker Austin Messa scooped up the fumble and raced to the 2-yard line. Hicks scored a play later on a keeper.
Hicks, who came into the game with 903 yards in four games, finished with 100 on 16 carries to eclipse the 1,000-yard mark already.
"I thought we did well in spurts on offense," Meyers said. "We were physical the first half but killed ourselves with turnovers and penalties."
In the second half, it was the defense setting up the next touchdown as well. This time it was Trey Green picking off a pass and racing to the 11-yard line. Hicks then connected with Brett Dingler for an 8-yard touchdown pass.
Antoine, the brother of Mississippi State linebacker Quadry Antoine, closed out the scoring with his late fumble return. It was one of five turnovers by the Owls (1-4). They committed two fumbles and two interceptions (one by Green, one by Cooper).
It was the first time the Owls had been shut out since losing 38-0 to Northshore in the second week of the 2013 season.
"We have to do a better job offensively puting points on the board," Chalmette coach Jason Tucker said. "I thought our defense stayed on the field a long time and played as hard as they could. We have to do a better job of helping them out."
Dominic Curole completed 10 of 24 passes for 60 yards for the Owls. Blaise took over at quarterback late. Masen Mitchell led the Owls with 54 yards on 15 carries.
Belle Chasse now turns its attention to a brutal three-game stretch when it begins District 9-4A play. The Cardinals host Warren Easton on Friday, then have back-to-back road trips to Behrman Stadium to play Landry-Walker and then Karr. All three teams are ranked in The New Orleans Advocate's Large School Super 10.
"I'm going to need a helluva defensive performance going against that type of talent," Meyers said.

We already know smoothies are a super easy way to get a quick hit of healthy nutrients… but I never thought about how a smoothie could actually be good for my skin.
Top Irish chef, Clodagh McKenna (you might have seen her on The Rachael Ray Show, NBC's Today Show, or CTV's The Marilyn Denis Show) recently shared with me her smoothie recipe that not only keeps her going with a hectic schedule but has her looking fantastic! We met up at Toronto's Green Juice Co. where we rolled up our sleeves to have our own smoothie party.
Do you have a smoothie every morning?
"I do. I travel so much and I don't always get to eat all the fruit and vegetables I should."
What do you add to your smoothie?
"My base is fresh kale and spinach which has lots of iron. Don't feel like you need to add both. I just like the different texture they both create. I also like to add celery and cucumber. They are everybody's friend as they are wonderful for reducing water retention. Here's a tip for you: Don't forget to use the celery leaves as well…they add a beautiful peppery taste."
It seems like all of the ingredients in your recipe are readily available year-round.
"Yes, they have to be accessible. I can't deal with making things with ingredients that aren't available. That's too exclusive and I don't like exclusivity. I'm adding a local apple to this particular smoothie. I add an apple just for the sweetness."
What would you add to to make it a little heartier? Perhaps to tide you over between meals.
"I love adding a banana and avocado with a touch of cinnamon and ginger, which is really nice. Cinnamon and ginger are both good for your digestive system. I'm also adding some lemon. I could talk day long about lemon. It's the detoxifier and cleanser, the best thing for your skin."
Being a Irish chef, you act as a bit of a food ambassador for the country. Is there anything people could be adding to their lives to bring them more culinary enjoyment?
"Yes, I think people could be baking bread more."
You travel so much, besides the smoothie recipe, can you share your beauty routine?
"I love my beauty routine! I'm a big fan of face oils. I put it on during my flights, and its just incredibly hydrating. As well as the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream. I also make sure I exfoliate and use a hydrating mask at least once a week. The other thing is for my hands, because I cook so much they are constantly in water, which makes they dry. So one night every week I smother my hands with Vaseline and wear cotton gloves. It makes a big difference."
Green Goddess Juice
25 g baby leaf spinach
20 g kale
½ apple, cored
¼ cucumber
1 stalk celery, cut in halves
Juice from ½ lemon
¼ inch of fresh ginger
¼ cup (50 ml) water
• Wash the spinach, celery, cucumber, apple and kale. Chop coarsely.
• Place all the ingredients (save ½ celery stalk for garnish) in a juicer and blitz to a fine pulp, adding water as necessary.
• Garnish with remaining celery stalk.

I'm looking for good quality probiotic that my whole family can use. Any recommendations?
Also interested in digestive enzymes. TIA!
Emily-Wife to Adam and Mama to Steven 7/08 and Theo 3/11
Or do you use foods for probiotics? I ferment foods and drinks, but the kiddos don't usually eat much or it.
Emily-Wife to Adam and Mama to Steven 7/08 and Theo 3/11
Kirkman Labs Pro-Bio Gold Hypoallergenic probiotics :)
Tina - mama to DD1 12yrs, DD2 7yrs, DD3 4 yrs & baby and wifey to DH.
Thanks! I'll check them out.
Emily-Wife to Adam and Mama to Steven 7/08 and Theo 3/11
I LOVE Klaire Labs probiotics. They are very high potency and are completely dairy free. They have several different probiotic formulas, but the Ther-Biotic Complete is the most comprehensive (12 strains of bacteria and 25+ billion per capsule!)
I use iFlora or FloraBaby for my toddler. Myself I sometimes get Renew Live probiotics. Usually though we rely on kefir and other fermented foods for that.
THe best tasting probiotic I have ever had was one I made myself.... a water based kefir and I fermented a combination of welch's grape juice and coconut water.
It's hard to maintain consistency though.
The probiotics you make yourself are usually very powerful because they are so fresh. I would advise eating some live probiotic thing with every meal.
HMF Probiotics are the strongest on the market. You can google it and find it many places. We drink raw kefir and yogurt and they probiotics are really strong. One thing your kids may drink that has probiotics is a cultured whey drink. Add the whey (liquid ) on the top of yogurt to some organic juice. we use grape juice. Then they are getting the probiotics and it is really good. This should be cheaper.
I let some raw milk sit on the counter for 3-4 days until the whey separates, I strain it and we drink some of the whey with breakfast, in a bit of juice, everyday. I also make very low temp raw yogurt and cream cheese, retaining the bacterias. This is new for us and I'm thrilled b/c I was also looking for a good probiotic but this is so much cheaper!
Another vote for Klaire Labs probiotics...at least for the kids. We use their infant powder and their chewables for our 2 yr old. We also try to get probiotics into them via food...Bubbie's pickles and saurkraut. But I'm not sure how reliable those are and so the Klaire Labs probiotics insure that they're getting what they need. The adults in our house take the Mercola probiotics. Sometimes the powder in juice and sometimes the capsules. Both seem to make me feel/function better.

Rainbow Dash Soul (AKA Rainbow Dash's Soul) is a character in CSB. She is what happened to her after the events of Camwoodstock Adventure , permanently a ghost angel mix, but able to fight. She has AMAZING, the most in fact, HP in the game, but all the other stats excluding defense are bad.
List of special attacks
- Roaming (She isn't a platformed character, she floats around freely. Walls do still stop her.
- Rainbow spectrum bullets (Acts like the mega buster in mega man, they home towards the nearest enemy. The colors vary in this pattern. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, loop from red forever.)
- FINAL SMASH: PUNCH, KICK! (Karate man from the rhythm heaven franchise makes a cameo, where he punches 3 GIANT bombs separately at the foes. All do critical damage She can also throw hyper bombs (but these are weaker) to add insult to injury.)

Mr. Louis is an amazing attorney who is knowledgeable of both state and federal laws. Having never needed a lawyer before, I was quite nervous about approaching anyone. Mr. Louis took the time to explain the costs vs. benefits and kept me informed during the time that he assisted me with a wrongful termination lawsuit. Quite simply, he is an advocate for those who are mistreated by bullies. If you think you might need a lawyer, call or email Mr. Louis Koerner.

I have only recently learned about James Baldwin. But for the last several hours I have been watching his interviews and work. You know what I find most troubling about watching this? The fact that much of what he is saying in 1963 is still true today! This video could have been filmed yesterday, and with only a few exceptions, most of what they are saying still holds true today.
Baldwin speaks about the white liberal, and how they are only "helping" the black man as a way to alleviate their own guilt. That's something that I am sure most readers here would agree with considering the way you view liberals. But that's not all that can still apply today, there's much more.
I'm sure that many of you will attack Mr. Dupree for allowing me to share things like this on the site, but I hope that you would take a few minutes to listen to what is being said by this man. Actually stop, and listen with an honest, open mind. If you do, then maybe one day in our lifetimes, we can see the true change that will take us into the next level as a nation. We all need to listen to one another, divisive tactics will not work!
Please share your thoughts, and remember, direct any questions at me! Dupree did not write or endorse this, or any of my articles. He allows me to provide alternate viewpoints, but make no mistake, the views are mine and mine alone.

Documentary Hopes to Bring Turkish, Armenian Communities Closer
By Alin K. Gregorian
Mirror-Spectator Staff
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — A murder almost a decade ago and a genocide a century back impacted one woman so much that she altered the course of her life.
The woman, Gonca Sönmez-Poole, a Turkish-American, formed the grassroots group Turkish-Armenian Women's Association (TAWA) in 2012, to bring together women who could speak frankly and openly about the Armenian Genocide and its impact on both Turks and Armenians.
"I wanted to do something on the overall subject," said Sönmez-Poole recently, after the murder of Hrant Dink. "I knew there was something I had to say. I can keep talking myself," she said, noting she could not change minds on her own. "I decided to start after Hrant Dink. I threw myself into the dialogue group."
The resulting conversations and friendships between September 2012 and May 2014 are now in the process of becoming a documentary.
She did not tape the sessions, but asked some of the people involved to speak on camera at a different time.
Sönmez-Poole, who spent more than two decades at the WCVB program "Chronicle," explained that she realized that a lot of people could benefit from the documentary in terms of education.
"I want to do it for those other people" who did not participate in the conversations, she said.
In an earlier interview about the film, she said, "The documentary, titled 'Neighbors in Memory…A Personal Journey,' will be a first of its kind project, exploring the Armenian-Turkish relationship from the bottom up…starting from the reeducation of one Turkish woman (that is myself) and weaving in the thoughts and feelings of others who have been — or still are — pondering the question: why does this hundred year old event — the Armenian Genocide — continue to be so controversial, so sensitive and so significant?"
Sönmez-Poole moved to the US as a college student from her native Turkey, knowing next to nothing about the Armenian Genocide. According to the history books she had in school, during World War I Armenians had betrayed Turkey by siding with their Russian enemy. Her sister, 13 years younger, also received "outright misinformation" about the Genocide.
She recalled that she came to the US to study after graduating from a private French high school in Istanbul. "I have a very hardworking and amazing father," who agreed to send his daughter to the US to study at Emerson College.
"It was culture shock," she recalled.
After Emerson, she attended graduate school at Boston University, where she met her future husband, Curtis Poole. She and her family, including her two children, stayed in the US. Her children, she said, have grown up with a strong sense of their Turkish heritage.
Sönmez-Poole said her enlightenment on the Armenian Genocide is "both a blessing and a curse."
She credited Dr. Pamela Steiner of the Harvard School of Public Health for drawing her into a dialogue.
"It was an effort eight or nine years ago for public diplomacy to get people to break down walls," she recalled. Those efforts included workshops, with Sönmez-Poole often the only Turkish person in the room. Once Hrant Dink was assassinated, Sönmez-Poole "couldn't stop" herself from wading into the deep end of the pool.
Forming TAWA and delving into the subject "has been wonderful, incredibly enriching," she said, adding, "The Turkish community knows me very well. They respect me, however, absolutely there is no support when it comes to this subject."
Moving to Turkey and Back
For two years in the early 1990s, the family decamped to Turkey, in hopes of better opportunities. However, though the children enjoyed the great care of their grandparents, the couple decided living in Turkey was not to be their fate.
They returned to the US, and when they did, Sönmez-Poole attended the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy mid-career program, during which she focused on the Kurdish issue in Turkey. "It was extremely satisfying," she said. Her curiosity about and interest in minority rights in Turkey and human rights in general were born.
At the same time, the subject of the Armenian Genocide had always been a "taboo" one with her parents. However, she added, in the past two years, she has seen "elements of acceptance." She said her mother recently told her stories that she had heard about Armenians' forced disappearances from her youth.
Sönmez-Poole is the founder of Mediation Way, Inc., a small Boston-based nonprofit that was in operation from 1999 until 2012. Mediation Way was also home to a series of panel discussion/screenings about the Roma population in its earlier years, as well as an author/discussion event related to Turkish-Armenian relations held at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy in 2010.
Sönmez-Poole holds a BA in mass communication from Emerson College, an MS in broadcasting and film from Boston University and a mid-career MA from the Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy, where she studied international human rights, minorities and methods in mediation and conflict resolution.
She held a screening of the snippets of the taped dialogue at the Elie Wiesel Center for Jewish Studies at Boston University last month. Now she is in the process of raising funds to complete the film. "I need money to hire a very good photographer/videographer to [produce footage] to go along with the interviews," she said.
She is seeking to raise $25,000 to complete the film. A showing for the completed portion has been planned for April 6 at Framingham State University.
"It is a phase-by-phase process," she recounted.
She said her long-term wish for the film is that it would be shown in the US, as well as Turkey and Armenia. In the short term, she said, she would like to have it shown in local venues such as the recent Boston University showing. "I would like to use it in a panel discussion for people to talk," she said.
The value of the documentary is to "explore the other people's feelings and thought. There is value in listening to and observing other people's thoughts and feelings," she added. "It is a tool that people can use to listen to each other."

Breast Cancer
Students of Breast Cancer studies need not worry about paying for over-priced textbooks anymore – renting textbooks is an option! Breast Cancer textbooks – for example Preventing Breast Cancer: The Politics of an Epidemic by [Cathy Read], and The Department of Lost & Found: A Novel by [Allison Winn Scotch] – are often some of the most frequently updated books by Publishing companies. The field of Breast Cancer is constantly changing, and new editions can come yearly and at a huge cost to students who continually buy new books. So why buy when you can rent cheap textbooks? There are plenty of Breast Cancer books to rent – BookRenter has of them all!
Used book sales can be a cheap option as well, but often can be more expensive than textbook rentals. However, there are very few return policies with used books, and especially when taking Breast Cancer classes, buying a used book can be dangerous and costly.

* ECB governing council member Honohan backs growth drive
* Says supports EU fiscal treaty due to its flexibility
* Calls on banks to work harder on borrowers in arrears
DUBLIN, April 26 (Reuters) - The governor of Ireland's central bank on Thursday called on Europe to focus on boosting growth and tackling unemployment as the fastest way to address the continent's debt and deficit problems.
The comments by Patrick Honohan, a European Central Bank Governing Council member, follow ECB President Mario Draghi's call on Wednesday for a European "growth compact".
European cooperation "must emphasise a growth and employment focus which, if successful, could have the effect of dissolving debt and deficit problems faster than anything else", Honohan said in a speech in Dublin.
The European Union, which generates about a fifth of global output, has struggled to strike a balance between austerity and growth as it seeks to overcome a decade of high spending while grappling with recession.
Leaders of EU member states have intensified calls in recent days to balance the continent's new fiscal treaty, which would impose automatic sanctions on states with a budget deficit over 3 percent of GDP, with moves to boost growth.
Ireland on May 31 is to hold what will probably be the only popular vote on the treaty, which will make it harder for countries to use borrowed money to boost growth during downturns.
Honohan said he supported the treaty because the rules involved "considerable discretion and judgment" that would offer flexibility to countries who sign up.
"It will be important to ensure that, if needed, such flexibility is fully exploited in Ireland's case," he said.
Honohan said the Central Bank saw some benefit in the idea of speeding up the fiscal adjustment in Ireland, which aims to reduce its deficit from 9.4 percent last year to 3 percent in 2015 under its EU-IMF bailout.
"The duration of the negative demand impulse and any associated uncertainty would be shortened, in order to speed the resumption of more rapid growth," he said.
Ireland's EU/IMF lenders said on Thursday they would let it spend more proceeds from the sale of state assets on stimulating the economy, suggesting greater willingness within the euro zone to temper relentless austerity with some growth strategies.
Honohan also called on Ireland's banks to speed up efforts to deal with borrowers in arrears. Nearly one in seven home loans in Ireland are not being fully repaid.
"Overall we now feel that the main banks have been too slow to organise themselves sufficiently for the very large and complex task of engagement with delinquent borrowers," he said.
The central bank believes lenders should proceed "with realistic loan modifications where - and only where - necessary and not shying away from foreclosures in the (buy-to-let) segment in cases where this proves inevitable", he said.

swak4Foam Warning messages during runtime postprocessing
Hi All,
I have setup a simulation with a good set of measures... For this task I am using swak4Foam. The simulation seems to be OK, although I still need to check for coherence of the values. However, something that is baffling me is the good amount of warning messages that are coming out:
Expression UMeanAtPlane01LeftBranch : --> FOAM Warning :
The only exception from this are mapped patches if their "partner" patch is used as a remote because OpenFOAM provides a mapping there.
I'm not quite sure what you're trying to do with this functionObject so I can't give you a recommendation how to fix it
Hi Bernhard,
Thanks for your fast reply and explanation. I am not really an expert in swak4Foam, just a big fan, so maybe a lot of "not-really-well-designed" expressions are already contained in this simple example (I am pretty sure my full set of swak expressions already look like a Frankestein case!!).
Well, what I am trying to do is relatively simple. I just want to extract average pressure and mean velocity (besides some other measures) at some specific points/planes. The problem is that the domain is composed by a set of ducts, not parallel each other. In this case, any plane defined to sample points, within any of the ducts, will intersect sections of the other ducts. Here I am assuming that, then, these averages (or any other measure) will be "contaminated" with (i.e. will take into account) values extracted from other parts of the domain being intersected by the given plane, but that do not correspond to the specific duct I need to analyze. Another small complication is that the planes are not necessarily aligned with any major direction.
In any case, I also have a "back-up" measure: using the probes functionality, but I would really like to have a compact form, as usually provided by swak4Foam. I really would like to have the data almost ready, instead of "postProcessing the postProcessed" data.

It looks like a very big mouthful. However you look at him, Gabe is one hot man!
