I could take it anywhere.
Well, I can take it mostly anywhere, but not here. At least not anymore.
Sorry. That was a long way to go to butcher a song lyric. And what the hell am I talking about?
As most of you probably know, it's incredibly easy these days to have complete control over the diagnostic portion of your health care. You can go online, select and order blood and other diagnostic tests, and get the results online — in many cases, for much cheaper than if you had paid out-of-pocket for doctor-ordered tests. Easy, that is, except in seven states: MA, MD, ND, SD, NJ, RI, and good 'ole New York, New York. For whatever reason, legislators in these states have decided that information is inherently dangerous, and you need to be protected from obtaining it without a doctor's supervision.
Which means this experiment shouldn't have been possible for me. But thankfully, one company — Direct Labs out of Florida — essentially cobbled together a workaround. A limited number of tests could be ordered online, at which point a requisition form would be generated by a doctor in FL that you could print out and bring to LabCorp.
At least you could until about three days after I last posted. Which is when under pressure from the NY Attorney General, Direct Labs terminated its so-called Direct Access program.
I had a brief email exchange with their CEO; she doesn't believe she was breaking any laws by administering the workaround, nevertheless, she stated that her company couldn't shoulder the legal and financial burden of trying to fight it.
Which of course makes me reallllly wish I had wrapped up this thing on its original schedule. Because without an ongoing way to order the NMR tests (if I haven't mentioned it before, my doctors never wanted any part in this endeavor), I can't really continue.
There is the option of getting the tests done in Pennsylvania. The biggest hurdle there is it would require the time and fuel for a four-hour round-trip to the closest lab. The financial costs of that are potentially doable; the time requirements haven't been.
The time to make the required remaining trips down there will potentially open up when I finish the semester in May, but this latest setback is making the whole thing seem like a giant windmill I'm tilting at.
Any ideas welcome. Also, if you live in any of the states that have made online test ordering illegal (or even if you don't), write somebody. Write the AG or your congressperson. The notion that we need to be protected from information about ourselves is insane in 2015.
It's amazing that both the genetic and diagnostic testing that originally inspired and made this experiment possible — at least in New York — both no longer exist.

What is a G-Pass?
Samuel E J. asked on Mar 29, 2014
With a G-Passâ"¢ for a GrouponLive event, there is no need to exchange it for a ticket at the venue, as your G-Pass is actually your ticket. Your G-Pass will include your seating information.
Once the deal closes, it will take up to 48 hours for Groupon to obtain your seating information and place your G-Pass in your account. During this time, your G-Pass will show as processing on your "My Groupons" page.

Professor of Communication Deirdre Johnston Selected as Dean's Global Education Grant Winner
Professor Deirdre (Dede) Johnston has been selected as the 2014-15 recipient of the Dean's Global Education Grant. This grant is given to one faculty member in the division each year to promote the global mission of Hope. Her specific proposal for this grant competition will allow her to connect with colleagues from Bratislava International School of Liberal Arts (BISLA) in Slovakia and the American University of Beirut (AUB). Her plan is to engage Hope students with faculty and students from these other institutions. In so doing, Hope students will study and
gain understanding in, among other things, the causes of conflict and violence, the processes of peace building, effective intergroup dialog, and the religious and philosophical perspectives that impact human relations.
The grant will also allow Hope to develop a conjoined course entitled "Narratives of Peace, Conflict and Reconciliation" that will be taught with Hope, BISLA and AUB students. The students will connect via Skype during the Spring semester 2016. The students from all three institutions will then meet together in South Africa for a two-week study and tour in May 2016, applying what they have learned in the Spring semester.

It's nice to see someone else representing traditional art. I wasn't sure who Genndy Tartakovsky was but I'm guessing he was the lead writer on Dexter's laboratory and Samurai Jack, which I like both of those shows.
I have always had a soft spot for water color partly due to liking the aesthetic and partly due to not being able to do it myself.
Anyways good job and good luck.
Thanks for the review. Yes, Genndy Tartakovsky created Dexter's Laboratory, Samurai Jack, and plenty of other cartoons. He's actually making a new season of Samurai Jack on Adult Swim. What has been shown of this season looks awesome.

I've updated Balikas 1 & 2 (poetry in Pangasinan dialect.) Also corrected some spelling errors after learning from a fellow Pangasinense that there is no syllable wa and letter k in written Pangasinan. Thus, the word wala (meaning There is) should be written as oala and sika tan siak (meaning You and Me) should be sica tan siac. However, to make the poems contemporary I have retained the use of letter K instead of C.

Chris X' (real name: Chris Yonts) was founder, editor and publisher of Scrud, Plagiarist, Rockabilly Maniac, and The Knot fanzines, and co-founder of KOA.
Armed with a cast-off IBM Selectric and a box of childhood art supplies, and using John Holmstrom's PUNK (Issue 14) as inspiration (and Good Times as anti-inspiration), 14-year-old Yonts conceptualized and laid out SCRUD #1 in his mom's living room in Fall of 1979.
He printed 10 copies of Issue #1 on his dad's office copier and was incredulous when Polio Ferrari (working the counter at Cymbaline Records) bought the whole run for resale in the store's venerable periodicals rack.
The first issue had ten one-sided pages and a K-Mart Shoppers cover story.
SCRUD had a total run of approximately 10 issues (10-40 copies per issue) on a quasi-monthly schedule, culminating in a Ramones cover story/interview (Spring 1980) which was arranged by SKOT.E Wheeler.

The leadership of the Palestine Liberation Organization this week condemned Israel for delaying the implementation of the Palestinian self-rule accord.
"The trouble that is facing the negotiations is the result of a deliberate and planned policy by the Israeli government to use different excuses since the signing of the Israeli-Palestinian accord to stall carrying it out," the PLO's Executive Committee said in a statement issued in Cairo on wednesday.
"The peace process is starting to go 'round in an empty circle and is losing its credibility and ability to continue," the statement continued.
PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat convened the Executive Committee for a two-day session in Cairo to address what he termed the "impasse" in negotiations with Israel.
The meeting followed talks in Paris between Arafat and Foreign Minister Shimon Peres and coincided with ongoing Israeli-Palestinian negotiations in Cairo.
In the statement issued at the conclusion of the PLO session, the committee condemned Israel for failing to withdraw troops from Arab population centers in the West Bank.
The step was called for under the terms of the Declaration of Principles signed in Washington in September 1993, but Israel has delayed the move, citing security concerns in the wake of repeated terrorist attacks against Israelis by Palestinian rejectionists.
The PLO leadership also called the expansion of Israeli settlements in the territories a violation of the self-rule accord. It also called upon release all Palestinians still held in Israeli jails.
The meeting in Cairo took place following an earlier decision by the committee not to suspend talks with Israel.
But the committee said it would seek international help to pressure Israel to fulfill its part of the agreement.
Only nine of the committee's 18 members attended the meeting. Some members refused to take part because of their opposition to the direction taken in the Israel-PLO negotiations.
Their absence leaves open the possibility that those members of the committee opposing the peace process can declare the committee's decisions null and void, since Arafat failed to gather the two-thirds quorum required under PLO rules.
During its session this week, the committee also called upon leaders of the Arab world to convene to discuss the state of the peace process.
Israel Radio reported Wednesday that several Arab member states of the United Nations are planning to request that the U.N. Security Council hold a discussion on continued settlement expansion in areas around Jerusalem.
On Sunday, the Israeli Cabinet denied an appeal by the left-wing Meretz bloc of the coalition to stop the expansion of communities around Jerusalem.
Meanwhile, Israeli and Palestinian negotiators concluded another round of talks in Cairo on Wednesday.
The two sides were unable to bridge their difference on issues relating to the withdrawal of Israeli forces in the West Bank and the holding of Palestinian elections.
Among the topics discussed was a Palestinian suggestion to bring international observers to the West Bank and Gaza Strip to monitor the elections.
Yoel Singer, the Foreign Ministry's legal adviser who is head of the Israeli negotiating team, said the two sides were still far from reaching an overall agreement on elections.
"I can't say we are agreed on all the elements of the agreement, but we are moving forward as fast as we can," he said.
In an effort to keep the momentum of the talks going, the two sides agreed to reconvene in Cairo in two weeks.
Singer said he would meet with Saeb Erekat, the head of the Palestinian delegation, next week in Israel or in the West Bank Jericho enclave.

OEM, Renovated and Remanufactured: Understanding the Distinction Could Save You In the Long-run
When buying injectors it is important to know the main distinction between common market terms regarding the health of the injector under consideration. Used, Renovated, Refurbished, Renewed, Renovated all mean different things. Not teaching yourself on a big difference can eventually cost you money. The information below should help tell you the difference:
New Injectors:
New injectors are directly from the producer and have never been used. These injectors generally come from Bosch, Delphi, Cummins, CAT or GM. They usually come with a supplier 2-3 season assurance and certification of verification. Each source is different.
OEM Injectors:
OEM Injectors are used injectors that are absolutely dissembled analyzed by qc then absolutely rebuilt from the ground-up. The rebuilt procedure is finished using new and modified elements and concentrates on alternative of all closes, valves, plungers, solenoids and injector misting nozzles. Everything is changed except the injector body/housing which is either nasty, metal or graphite. The recently rebuilt injector is then examined by the unique producer not a 3rd celebration rebuilder. Bosch, Delphi, Cummins etc… perform these assessments and restore procedures.
Refurbished/Used Injectors:
Refurbished or used injectors have been eliminated from operating diesel fuel google. They are not rebuilt but rather washed inwardly and outwardly and examined to create sure they still fulfill or surpass the unique OEM requirements. If the injector is still in good operating situation it is noticeable as Renovated and marketed at a less expensive lower price rate simply because they are indeed used. Almost all refurbished injectors still come with a 1 season assurance which create them a great deal for those looking for a great deal. You can learn more about how an energy injector performs through supplier sources often times found at Bosch or Delphi.
Remanufactured Injectors:
Remanufactured energy injectors stand out from Renovated injectors in that they have been absolutely ripped down, analyzed and examined for use and then remanufactured using product new elements. This is where most clients get puzzled. Renovated injectors can be rebuilt with used areas or remanufactured but not to OEM requirements. All remanufactured areas should be imprinted or etched with the machinist's name to be able to monitor the particular remanufacturing procedure on said injector. If there is security problem then a store can back monitor to see what possibly went incorrect. A reliable device store should create sure the remanufactured injectors are remaned to OEM requirements using new or 100% reman areas. Finally, create sure you ask your injector sales rep to ensure with a qc claim that the injectors are indeed remanufactured to OEM requirements and if they provide security.

Carolinas MED-1 Deployed for Flu Vaccinations On Saturday, January 9th, Carolinas MED-1 housed a clinic for residents of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County to get H1N1 flu shots outside Eastland Mall. The event was held from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm and featured paramedics from our very own Mecklenburg EMS Agency. Saturday's event marked the first time Carolinas MED-1 was operational in Mecklenburg County. Previously, it had been instrumental in providing medical care to Hurricane Katrina victims and in the flood-ravaged Midwest. It was developed and is owned by Carolinas Medical Center. The first mobile hospital of its kind, Carolina MED-1 was created by our medical director, Dr. Tom Blackwell and is owned by Carolinas Medical Center. The 53-foot trailer consists of an 11-bed critical care unit, an emergency department and full ICU capabilities. The mobile

The concept for Carolina MED-1was first conceived in 2000 as a solution to providing medical care following a natural disaster or other unforeseen events. "We're really excited, " said Dr. Tom Blackwell. "We have made a difference in the lives of more than 10,000 people, but have never had the opportunity to help residents in Mecklenburg County. To provide a facility where our neighbors can come and get flu shots is an honor." The event on was held in conjunction with Carolinas Medical Center and Mecklenburg County Health Department. 1

Out of County Equipment
Social Media and Networking Sites
As one of the country's top providers in emergency medical services, our field crews continue to set the standard of excellence for other area EMS agencies. It is especially important that we continue to be mindful of this high standard when using equipment from other "outof-county" departments.
Social media and its impact on our lives has increased greatly within the last 5 years. People are now more easily connected, information is shared and on-line communities are formed. Medic recognizes the value and popularity of on-line social networking sites (e.g., Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, etc.) and blogs as vital communications and networking tools for individuals, agencies and businesses.
Currently, Medic has a group focused and working on the development of policies and Recently, field crews have begun to find more spine boards practices specific to the use of from out-of-county departments on our units.

Postal Service anticipates plenty of cards in the mail
Even though fewer people are using first-class mail in general, relying instead on email and social networking sites, the tradition of sending Christmas cards remains strong.
"We still do get a lot of Christmas cards," said Dan Reilly, Saratoga Springs postmaster.
"Are you going to send Grandma an email?" he asked. He said a Christmas card sent through the mail "means more — you took the time.
"It shows that you care," Reilly said.
The Postal Service expects to deliver 16.5 billion cards, letters and packages during the holidays from Thanksgiving to New Year's Eve this year, according to Maureen Marion, a U.S. Postal Service spokeswoman.
"During the same 28-day period last year, the Postal Service delivered 16.8 billion pieces of mail," Marion said. This reflects a downturn of 1.7 percent comparing the two holiday seasons.
The Postal Service processes 551 million pieces of mail daily during non-holiday times, but during this holiday season, the Postal Service anticipates that number will jump to 589 million pieces per day, reflecting holiday cards in the mail stream.
Kim Haley, the manager of Tracy's Hallmark store on Altamont Avenue in Rotterdam, said Christmas cards remain very popular in her store.
"It's the one holiday we do see [remain strong]," Haley said. "We do see other holidays dwindle down, Thanksgiving, for instance."
People continue to buy boxes of cards in preparation for the holiday season.
"Thomas Kinkade is the most popular right now," Haley said. A box of 18 Kinkade cards sells for $9.99, while a box of 40 cards goes for $14.99.
Religious holiday cards are also very popular, along with individual cards for family members, the dentist and the mail carrier and foreign-language cards, Haley said.
A postage-paid greeting card created by Hallmark is a quite popular. The card is pre-stamped so the customer just has to sign it, address the envelope and drop it in a mailbox. The postage-paid cards are $3.99 each.
Customers also like the selection of 99-cent cards, Haley said.
To support the volume of holiday mail, the Postal Service will increase its air cargo transport of mail 31 percent this holiday season compared to non-peak mail periods, Marion said.
The Postal Service also expects to process about 30 million pounds of holiday mail to military personnel in Afghanistan and Iraq. The Postal Service suggests that mail going to these military destinations be mailed by Dec. 10 in most cases but as early as Dec. 3 in other cases. Express Mail to the military overseas should be sent by Dec. 17.
Postmaster Reilly said holiday mail, including cards, has remained steady in the past two or three years.
"Everybody [at his post office] gets really busy," he said.
Reilly's suggestion is that people mailing holiday packages use Priority Mail.
"It makes a big difference in time," Reilly said. He said Priority Mail is delivered within two or three days and those sending it can track it. He said the cost difference is usually negligible.
"While Christmas remains the holiday that sparks the most greeting card sales, fewer people send cards each year, according to Unity Marketing," says a Dec. 9, 2010, story in the Chicago Tribune.
The percentage of consumers buying greeting cards for Christmas fell from 77 percent in 2005 to 73 percent in 2007 and to 62 percent in 2009, according to that report.
The Christmas card outlook is particularly weak for teenagers and college students, who are accustomed to communicating in ways that are more immediate, more efficient and more cost-effective, said Pamela Danziger, president of Unity Marketing, the Pennsylvania-based firm cited in the Chicago Tribune story.
"Compared to these instant forms of communication, addressing a preprinted card and sending it via snail mail seems like an antiquated waste of time," Danziger said.

George C. Ginsberg, known as the Penny Philanthropist because of his charitable donations in small denominations, wanted to see The New York Times Neediest Cases Fund break the $5 million mark. He had predicted that it would happen last year and when it did not, he simply started giving all over again.
''The enclosed $5 bill shall be the catalyst to the 5 millions, so please put it to the '96-'97 camapign,'' he wrote in a letter to The New York Times just after the end of last year's drive. ''I hope and pray that I will be around (now at 96 plus 5 mos). One can never tell, but I assure you that my family will carry on in my absence.''
Mr. Ginsberg, a retired photographer who by his modest example spurred scores of people to give to the fund, died at 97 on Nov. 18, less than two weeks before the start of the fund's 85th annual appeal.
Now, with only two weeks to go in the campaign, there is slim hope that the generous donor's dying wish will come true. To date, the fund has recorded $4,627,913.31. To reach $5 million, it would have to record $26,578 a day until the campaign closes at the end of the month.
The fund is still ahead of last year, when $4,270,092.16 had been collected by this time. Its record of $5,083,520.81 was set in 1992.Continue reading the main story
Mr. Ginsberg was right on the mark when he said his family would continue his charitable work. ''Our late father, George Ginsberg, known as the 'Penny Philanthropist,' was a frequent contributor to the N.Y. Times Neediest Fund,'' wrote his daughters, Annette Lawrence and Bea Slater of Springfield, N.J. ''His loving children thought the start of a new year would be the fitting time for us to continue his good work, and so, in his dear memory, please accept the enclosed check for your very worthy fund.'' They sent $25 -- quite a lot when counted in pennies.
''We didn't think much about it,'' Ms. Lawrence, 72, said of her father's generosity. ''He lived for 97 years so we got pretty used to him. He did a lot of wonderful things. I always knew everyone had to die, but I thought they might make an exception for him.''
Mr. Ginsberg used a plain white envelope with ''The Penny Philanthropy Fund'' printed on the outside to hold his donations before he sent them. He called the envelope the ''kitty'' and recruited a crew of fund-raisers to help him fill it, including his three grandchildren and five great-grandchildren, who called him Papa George. Spare change or dollar bills found on the street would all go into the kitty.
His family members were not the only ones inspired by his generosity. Mr. Ginsberg urged donors to send whatever little they could. If every reader gave $1, he said, the $5 million would be easy to reach. ''Don't be ashamed to send it,'' he wrote in one of his letters to the fund last year. ''Those dollars add up.''
Scores of people from around the country have sent modest contributions to the fund, saying Mr. Ginsberg's example emboldened them.
As Mr. Ginsberg showed last year, when his prediction of $5 million did not come true, he would have wasted no time in reaching for the goal once again. ''It's odd that I am writing this letter on the Ides of March,'' he wrote in his letter last March. ''My predictions did not come true, but $4,815.609.76 as of report 3-12-96 is not bad . . . . My personal contributions came to about $60, not bad considering that about five years ago, all I gave was $2.''
And he recognized that while the Neediest Cases campaign officially runs from Thanksgiving until March, the need exists all year long. ''While the campaign is over as far as the calendar date is concerned, the spreading of the hundreds of dollars by the N.Y. Times Fund has no calendar date,'' he wrote in his final letter.
''The hungry, the poor, the orphans, the jobless, the homeless continue to he helped with the funds donated . . . (same as I the PENNY PHILANTHROPIST do 365 days of the year not with hundreds but with a dollar or two, or three) which by the way is my secret to longevity.''
Checks payable to The New York Times Neediest Cases Fund should be sent to P.O. Box 5193, General Post Office, New York, N.Y. 10087, or any of these
285 Schermerhorn Street, Brooklyn, N.Y. 11217.
1011 First Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10022.

130 East 59th Street, Room 427, New York, N.Y. 10022.
No agents or solicitors are authorized to seek contributions for The New York Times Neediest Cases Fund.
The Times pays the fund's expenses, so all contributions go directly to the charities, which use them to provide services and cash assistance to the poor.
Contributions to the fund are deductible on Federal, state and city income taxes to the extent permitted by law.
To delay may mean to forget.

We wanted to give this restaurant a very cool style where simple and heart ideas could took place. So when we were developing the graphics and Felipe (client) told us: Why not put chairs? We understood it that way, the instinct was consistent with the strategy.
The logo uses a very sensual curve font comparable to the culinary sense of the place. Cupholders and postcards have a compendium of some of the most important chairs in the history of industrial design with explanation and credits. In the restaurant card, the data forms a chair.
The wine per glass menu is designed with the colors of wines for diners to choose the wine by its color. The industrial signaling is framed as a work of art. Anyway, everything is made to exalt the artistic abilities of people.
The video Back to basics (original idea by Lip) tells us the vision of the English chef Andrew Blackbourn, desires, motives and dreams, and how these are embodied in the restaurant 80 sillas. We design the poster campaign to communicate the launch of the video in youtube

Exclusive: Harriet Tubman Actress Aisha Hinds Reacts To 'Underground' Cancellation Rumors
The Underground season finale aired on Wednesday night, but don't worry, no spoilers here. However, if you are a fan of the show, this news may spoil your day.
According to several reports, there's a good possibility WGN America will not renew the hit show for a third season, despite it being one of the network's top-rated series. Why, you ask? Well, WGN's parent company, Tribune Media, has been purchased by the Sinclair Broadcast Group for a cool $3.9 billion. Unfortunately, Sinclair's CEO Chris Ripley has gone on the record saying, "The ratings WGN America [delivers] doesn't justify the type of spending they do on the original programming side. The channel could be run much more profitably on a fraction of what they spend on programming." Translation: Bye-bye, original programming.
The network has already cancelled Outsiders, which was its No. 1 show. Next in line could be Underground … the network's second top-rated show. But don't fret, producer of the stellar program, Sony Pictures Television, is reportedly looking to take the project elsewhere. Actress Aisha Hinds, who plays Harriet Tubman on Underground, is banking on that very thought.

I love meals that are clean and healthy, simple and fast to make, easy to clean up. Here is a meal that I make a few times per month for my family. Hope you enjoy it too! This recipe takes me about 15 minutes to make. Aloha!
Rinse rice until water runs clear. Pour coconut milk in, put in rice cooker or on stove. If cooking on the stove, heat uncovered until boiling. When boiling, cover and lower to simmer 15 min.
Heat coconut oil in non stick pan on medium. While pan is heating, put coconut flour in small dish, beat eggs in another dish, put Panko crumbs in another dish.
Rinse and pat chicken dry. Using a fork, cover chicken in coconut flour.
Dip in egg wash.
Cover in Panko.
Place in heated pan with the coconut oil. Repeat with all chicken breasts. Cook flipping once so each side is golden browned. Top with coconut flakes.
Serve with Coconut Hula Rice and side salad with raw vegetables drizzled with my Magic Maui Salad Dressing that literally makes salad disappear.

What I wore: Dress: Vince | Sandals: Tory Burch | Sunnies: Tom Ford
Hey guys!! Just popping in to share a few snaps from our trip to Paris. Let's start by saying how much I luvvvvvvv some Paris. The french architecture + the fashion + the open-air cafes along the streets make me swoon. We arrived late in the evening after taking the train in from London. We went straight to our hotel to catch up on some zzzz's only to find out that our hotel's air conditioner was B-R-O-K-E-N. It was 90 that day (way hot for Paris), and it just wasn't going to happen. So, we hopped over to a cafe and booked a new hotel -- Hotel D'Aubusson. We dropped our bags off and headed to a cafe down the street where we noshed on wine and baskets of french fries until 3 in the morning. The next day we grabbed breakfast a few blocks away from our hotel at Cafe de Flore. All of the cafes in Paris face their chairs toward the street for people watching -- which in Paris is aHMazing if you're into fashion. After we fueled up, we headed to the Louvre for a bit and then did some street browsing. We ate at Cafe George V {twice... oops!} and at tiny, tiny Ferdi (you have to text them for reservations and you MUST have reservations). Every hour on the hour the Eiffel Tower sparkles -- so we headed down to watch at midnight on our last night. A must see if you're ever in Paris!
Sorry I've been stingy with posts lately. It's been a busy few weeks. I finally fought off the jetlag but am still pretty tired. We traveled down to the 'Sip to get Charlie back from my mom last week (she kept her while we were away). This is our first weekend to get some R&R in Nashville, and I plan to do as little as possible. The boy just informed me that we have to go to dinner before 5 o'clock because he has "games" to watch tonight. Sigh... Check back next week for pictures from lovely Portofino!
Thanks for stopping by! X.

The Season : 8
If Season One were titled "Jax" and Season Two "Gemma" then Season Three would no doubt be "Abel." Sons of Anarchy is about succession. Clay may be the leader of the club, but Jax is the original leader's son - his father long deceased, and his mother, Gemma (Katey Sagal), married to Clay . In the first season Jax (Charlie Hunnam) found himself at a crossroads as regards his attitude about the direction the club should take and his commitment to being a first-time father. Reading his father's journal made it clear that Clay's direction for the club was not his father's, but was it his?
Taking on fatherhood also means Jax needed to sort out who should take on the role of his son's mother. The biological mother was too far gone on drugs to maintain those responsibilities so it fell on his once-girlfriend, Tara (Maggie Siff), recently retuned to Charming to practice her pediatric surgical skills at the local hospital. Both of these threads are taken up with a vengeance in Season Three, which picks up immediately after the previous season left infant son Abel kidnapped by a member of the IRA, his son having been killed by Jax's mother - or so he was led to believe by FBI Agent Stahl (Ally Walker). Gemma, around whose rape early on in season two became the emotional undercurrent throughout that season, is on the run at the start of season three though she does not yet know that her grandson is missing. Jax and Clay send out vain feelers throughout their club network, and the FBI are without a clue since SAMCRO is unwilling to tell them why the club would be in bed with the IRA.
We soon learn that IRA fugitive Cameron (Jamie McShane) made it all the way to Belfast with Abel in tow, though he already regrets his action - all the more so when he learns that he and Gemma were set up by Agent Stahl. The IRA has its own set of troubles, and Cameron's folly hasn't made things any easier for them. Two people that figure prominently on the Ireland front are: Maureen Ashby (Paula Malcomson, who herself hails from Belfast, and whom you would recognize from Deadwood, and who pretty much steals every scene she's in by her unselfconscious investment in her character) is well known to SAMCRO's old timers and her brother, Father Kellen (James Cosmo). These two don't exactly see eye to eye on how to deal with the baby. One thing is clear, Jimmy O'Phelan (Titus Welliver), SAMCRO's IRA contact stateside, now in Belfast, is a major fly in the ointment - the question is: whose ointment, and to what purpose? Much the same could be said for Father Kellen.
[Speaking of Deadwood, Sons of Anarchy also features Dayton Callie as Sheriff Unser, formerly Wild Bill's close friend Charlie Utter. And keep an eye out for Robin Weigert, whose Calamity Jane touched our hearts despite the profuseness of her inebriated profanity; she's all but unrecognizable here - or there, if you knew her prior to Deadwood. I leave the surprise of finding her to you. And while you're about it, there a great Sarah Palin joke that whizzes by so fast you could easily miss it.]
As for the club, they have their hands full with a Mayan incursion into Charming - the Mexicans intend to set up heroin manufacturing and distribution operations - leading to the inevitable violence that would and does destabilize the delicate balance between police and SAMCRO. Each season fleshes out one or two members of the club - this year "Chibs" (Tommy Flanagan) gets to share some of the spotlight with Jax, Clay, Opie and Tig, which only makes sense given his character has strong Irish roots and that a considerable piece of the season finds several club members in Belfast.
A subplot early on introduces us to Gemma's father, Nate (Hal Holbrook, now 85) who either is or is not coming to terms with the death of Gemma's mother some whiles back, depending on the status of his dementia. Meanwhile Ally Walker's Agent Stahl continues to play God. Very creepy. The character we most love to hate.
Jax is so bent out of shape about Abel and his inability to get a reliable bead on his whereabouts that he repeatedly and noxiously pisses all over what's left of his relationship with Tara - one moment willing to accept her decision to be a supportive part of his life and at the next abruptly slamming that door shut - most often the latter. It's really astonishing to find in a single character such a level of pig-headed self-righteousness and rampant impulsivity. No. Now that I think of it - it isn't. You gotta love Jax.

Perhaps its my equipment, but the Image quality seems to be even better than previously. There is a natural denseness to the image that is positively palpable. denser, than we saw for season one. There might be a little less grain and noise (except in dark scenes where noise is till evident, if not distracting) than previously without falling victim to heavy or inappropriate DNR, though there is still a tendency, easily overlooked, for blue fringing to occur with dark objects against light sky. As before, fabric textures, especially those ubiquitous leather jackets, are especially well rendered; facial texture, too, is faithful to the flesh. I should qualify all this with one negative vote for what seems to be to be a capricious decision on the part of the filmmakers to use a strong blue filter for the Belfast segments. The resulting loss of contrast does not serve the drama well, in my opinion.
Audio & Music: 8/8
The vocal peculiarity I observed in some parts of Season Two have righted itself. There is the occasional increase in presence at ties with Clay and Jax for certain emphasis, but this now seems deliberate now rather than arbitrary. Dialogue has sufficient clarity and focus that I did not feel the need to activate subtitles - except, of course, when anyone is speaking the Irish, even in English (this goes for Chibs as well as natives). My comments about the effects and music from Season Two still hold: The soundfield field opens up nicely for the occasional music and when gunfire is exchanged. I thought the small arms fire to be particularly effective, with remarkable variety depending on the gun and the location from where it is fired. Motorcycle engines are well-panned, back to front and side to side; they chug along deeply and have a bit more weight and vibrating punch than I observed last year.
Operations: 6
In contrast to many other series where the story continues from one season to the next, there is no reprise of the previous season in any form. As with Season Two, the first episode of the new season starts where the last one left off with enough "clues" as to make connections easy and without dumbing down the writing to bring you up to date. Perhaps it's just my OPPO but I was not able to obtain a memory function in "Season Play" to help find where I left off once the disc leaves the tray. That function does allow for each ensuing episode on any given disc to start immediately after the credits of the previous episode.
My one gripe is that a scene still goes to black for a couple seconds, as it would have for an FX commercial, even if the next shot picks up exactly where the previous one left off. There should be no blackout. It's an unnecessary and lazy adherence to the way it was shown on TV, minus the commercials. I would go so far as to say that most blackouts on video could be eliminated to good effect.
Extras: 8
The worthy highlights:
There are three audio commentaries, the season opener features Kurt Sutter and the writers; the other two: Sutter and cast members. All very listenable and absorbing. Three slightly extended cuts for the season premier and final episodes all get some extra time. "The Future Begins Now" consists of four vignettes (averaging two minutes or so) that take us via one imagined possibility from the end of season three and the beginning of season four. In the Writer's Roundtable, series creator Kurt Sutter and his writers field questions from fans.
You say you want to see how a motorcycle is built from the ground up, then you'll want to watch "Bike Customizer" - it's in HD so you can really get a close look at all the detailed work. Finally, you might want to check out want's on BD-Live: Kurt Sutter, Charlie Hunnam, Ron Perlman and Katey Sagal meet the fans at this years Comic-Con.
Recommendation: 8
The Sons of Anarchy is relaxed and confident going into its third season that isn't as tight a story or quite as focused in performance as the season just before. The Third Season has considerably more money at its disposal and it shows in its delirious delight plundering a new location. Despite a few missteps, like Sutter's unsubtle direction of the season finale and the few moments where the screenplay gets a little careless - as when Clay discusses his plans in the presence of a Mayan patch leader he just humiliated - an uncharacteristically lazy solution to moving the plot from point A to point B, and making Clay out to be stupid, which he ain't, Season Three is a riveting, if fairly humorless roller-coaster ride. The move to Belfast will perhaps upset some fans who demand something like purity, but let it not be forgotten that a considerable amount of SAMCRO's business relies on gun-running for the IRA. The politics of such things are not smoothed over or simplified, either for easy understanding or ethical consumption.
As with the previous season, Fox's high definition image and audio treatment is deserved but never feels like high resolution for the sake of showing itself off. A solid recommendation.
