You may have noticed this new acronym popping up on some of our products. RoHS stands for Restrictions on Hazardous Substances, and it's a directive that could have a huge impact on the production and disposal of consumer electronics. First adopted in Europe in 2006 (and later adopted in California in 2007), RoHS restricts the use of six dangerous substances in lots of common electronics. According to the official RoHS compliance Web site (www.rohs.eu), the RoHS symbol indicates that "new electrical and electronic equipment put on the market does not contain any of the six banned substances: lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, poly-brominated biphenyls (PBB) or polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE), in quantities exceeding maximum concentration values."
While some military and medical equipment is exempt from RoHS compliance, the electronics governed by the standard are among the most common you'll find in your home, from radios to MP3 players to cell phones and (increasingly) computers. In practical terms, the standard protects factory workers at the production level, sharply reducing their exposure to hazardous substances. The standard also has a profound impact on the disposal and recycling of electronics, in that disposed substances will no longer have at least six of the most hazardous chemicals formerly found in electronics, and recycled electronics will not expose workers to toxics as they harvest components.

PHOENIX, Ariz. ― Everyone knows that fluid milk consumption has been declining for years.
A major reason: Lack of innovation among milk processors.
I want to thank Alan Bernon, senior advisor and president of the affiliate division at Dairy Farmers of America, for providing clarity on this at an industry meeting this week in Phoenix.
Bernon participated in a panel discussion on innovation and was brave enough to field the moderator's $64,000 question: Why didn't milk processors see the need to innovate sooner?
For years, processors didn't think they had to because milk was a product with so many positive attributes, Bernon said. Then, as other beverages continued to take market share (or "share of stomach") away from milk, the processors wondered what innovation would cost.
Now, they are looking back at four decades of declining milk sales and saying "we can't afford not to invest," he said.
Too bad that time was lost. But as the old saying goes, "Better late than never."
Over the years, we as a magazine have attempted to keep this issue in the forefront ― and pass on creative ideas.
Here in the Kansas City area, for example, the Shatto Milk Co. has developed a loyal following because of its creativity with fluid milk. Recent rollouts have included blueberry-flavored milk (in glass bottles), as well as mint chocolate and apple pie.
A few years ago, I attended the Alltech Symposium in Lexington, Ky., and company founder T. Pearse Lyons suggested branding milk for different age groups, which I thought was a good idea. Then, at this week's meeting, I heard similar ideas expressed. Barb O'Brien, president of the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy, said that by the year 2020, one-third of the U.S. population will be over the age of 55. It piqued my curiosity, since I am already in that age category, so I asked her to be more specific on how milk might be marketed to older Americans. She said the protein in milk is an important attribute, since it helps older adults keep their muscle tone. Having containers that are smaller than the traditional gallon jugs might be a good idea, as well.
After listening to Bernon, O'Brien and a representative from the Shamrock Foods Co., I felt good knowing that innovation in fluid milk marketing is well under way.
From my vantage point ― responsible for putting out an online newsletter every day ― I process a multitude of stories from professional health journals, the vast majority of which support the nutritional value of milk. Over the course of a year, I see 40 or more of these stories and try to pass them on to my readers. It always amazes me that a beverage like bottled water, with little or no nutritional value other than its ability to keep a person hydrated, is so successful when fluid milk is experiencing a sales decline.
The only thing that is holding milk back is a lack of innovation. Fortunately, it appears that fluid milk processors have gotten the message and are doing something about it.

Manhattan, Kan. • Police in northeast Kansas say a missing Manhattan man has been found dead in his van off Interstate 70 in Utah, the apparent victim of a one-vehicle accident.
The family of 54-year-old David Welch reported him missing Sept. 3, one day after he drove away from his home without saying where he was going.
The Riley County Police Department says it was notified by the Utah Highway Patrol that a hitchhiker found Welch's van and his body Friday at the bottom of a ravine along I-70. The site is about 47 miles west of Green River, Utah, and 770 miles west of Manhattan, which is also located near the interstate.

Hi Razoir,
I'm glad you brought this up again.
NI has discovered that the likely cause of repeatedly seeing error -200361 is a bug in the Windows 7 EHCI driver when handling split transactions (which occur when queueing multiple IRPs on USB Full Speed devices such as the 6008/6009). Since NI does not have control over the Windows USB stack, the best we can do for now is to provide a workaround. Limiting the number of outstanding transfer requests will prevent split transactions from occurring and thus will prevent error -200361 from being thrown incorrectly (there is still a possibility that -200361 is being thrown legitimately if the data transfers over USB cannot keep up with your sample rate for some other reason).
Long story short, I suspect that you can fix the problem by adding the following property node to your task configuration (set the property before starting the task):
The above property was added in DAQmx 9.4 specifically so users can work around this one issue (assuming that this is what you are running into). The only downside of setting it is that you would theoretically have a lower maximum throughput when limiting the number of outstanding IRPs to 1, but at the rates the 6008/6009 is capable of I haven't yet found this to be an issue.
Best Regards,
Thanks John,
That all makes sense, however, I don't have the USB options in the final dropdown panel as your example has. I only have Data Transfer and Compression options. ( NIdaq 9.4, Win XP, LV 2011)

Hi Razoir,
To get the property to show up you'll need to do the following:
Right-click the property node and choose "Select Filter..."
Change the Filter Settings to "Show All Attributes":
The property is supposed to show up by default for the 6008/6009 but in the current version of DAQmx it does not (this should be fixed with the next release). I have also filed a corrective action request (#331459) for us to investigate making the default transfer request count to 1 for the 6008/6009.
Best Regards,
Hi, i have the same problem on my Win7/64 bit computer. Unfortunately the reqcount option doesn't exist in my LabView version :-/ I use the Labview 2011 with the latest NI Device Drivers.. I've tried reinstalling Labview and the Device Drivers several times but still no luck..The filter option is disabled.
Florian Gather
The property was added to the DAQmx driver in version 9.4.
The latest driver DVD (from August 2011) includes DAQmx 9.3.5, so you will likely need to update DAQmx to obtain access to the new property.
Best Regards,
Resolved...thanks John...
i am having the same issue with the daq 6009, actually iam sampling the data with the help of daq assistant vi , not the conventional way.
any possible solution to issue.(using daq asistant vi as iam a begginerin lab view)
iam working on the acer aspire 5749 ci3 machine.
please help thanks
Hi ryuzakiyaghami,
Are you using the same setup as mentioned in the posts above? We might need some more information about your application and the issue you are seeing.
Can you post your OS, DAQmx version, what error you are seeing, and when you are getting the error? Do you have any problems using the Test Panels in MAX?
Also, did you take a look at this KnowledgeBase article posted above?
04-18-2012 12:35 PM - edited 04-18-2012 12:35 PM
The workaround mentioned in my previous post is unfortunately not currently available in the DAQ Assistant. If you are indeed seeing the same problem as the other posters in this thread, I'd suggest using the lower-level DAQmx API (you can start with a shipping example or generate code from the DAQ Assistant) so you can add the property into your task configuration.
Best Regards,

Having Longoria back should improve defense
CLEARWATER, Fla. -- Last season the Rays earned the dubious distinction of becoming the first team since the 1945 Washington Senators to lead the American League in ERA (3.19) and finish last in fielding (114 errors). Making that fact tougher to swallow was the fact the Rays finished first in the AL in fielding in 2011.
Rays manager Joe Maddon believes much of the problem had to do with losing Gold Glove third baseman Evan Longoria for 85 games.
"The argument was made that we were moving people to different spots and that's something we always do and we've done successfully without guys making mistakes," Maddon said. "Last year, once Longo was out, we started doing what we thought would be normal and OK, but it didn't work out that way. Guys had difficult defensive years. Had Longo been [at third base], guys would not have been stretched to play there as often as they did.
"And I just think maybe the thought of having to cover for him for so long really was difficult. Everyday players are everyday players for a reason. And guys who are backup players, there's a reason for that also. The everyday player has a unique ability both physically and mentally to handle the grind on a daily basis and is probably better able to handle failure better. I think that's the real key."
Typical of Maddon, he found a silver lining in relation to the Rays' fielding.
"Moving forward, hopefully the same situation doesn't occur," Maddon said. "But if it did occur, hopefully we're covered depth-wise to where we can fill those spots in a better defensive way than we did last year."
Maddon believes this year's team has the potential to be the best fielding Rays team since his arrival prior to the 2006 season.
"I think it can be the [best] ever with good health," said Maddon, noting that such a compliment was high praise based on the high bar the 2008 club set with standout defenders Longoria, Jason Bartlett, Akinori Iwamura, and Carlos Pena. "That was pretty good. And this is right there with the guys that are out there right now. If we keep them on the field you're going to see some fantastic defense out there this year."

Police who went to the aid of Anthony Gardner, 72, who was viciously attacked by Bartosz Radoch, 25, in an unprovoked incident in Trowbridge were shocked by what happened.
Radoch, of Henderson Close, Trowbridge, had been drinking heavily when he set upon the pensioner, who was walking home from the Conservative Club along Gloucester Road, Trowbridge, on July 5 last year.
After grabbing Mr Gardner by the collar and shaking him 'like a rag doll', Radoch threw him to the ground, where he cut his hands badly on gravel.
Radoch, who needed a Polish interpreter at Swindon Crown Court on Friday, then kicked him, pulled him to his feet and punched him, cutting his right eyebrow.
Radoch then walked off, while Mr Gardner managed to crawl back to the Conservative Club, where staff raised the alarm.
He was taken to the Royal United Hospital in Bath, where he had surgery on his hand.
Radoch, who was arrested nearby, told police he had been drinking heavily at the Polish Club.
He pleaded guilty to assault causing actual bodily harm.
Radoch, who is married with an 18-month-old daughter, told police he had been drinking heavily at the Polish Club. He pleaded guilty to assault causing actual bodily harm.
Trowbridge Inspector Lisette Harvey said: "This incident is shocking and distressed officers who attended the call, as this behaviour is totally unacceptable.
"The conviction shows the police have been proactive and have found who is responsible.
"I hope the prosecution acts as a deterent to anyone else who might consider carrying out this kind of offence."

CHRISTIE Miller recorded their first win of the season in the central section of the Wessex League last Sunday morning, writes DAVE EATON.
They won the local derby against North Wilts by 11 shots as they ran out 82-71 victors.
Christie took the honours on two of the four rinks, drew on another and in the one they lost only suffered a one shot reverse. This gave them a haul of 13 points out of a possible 16.
Both matches at home in Melksham were very close affairs with Brian Routledge's rink having to come from behind before winning by three shots. While Andy Moore's quartet dropped a two on the 21st and last end decider to lose by one shot.
Routledge's rink trailed 11-4 after ten ends at home to Justin Davis but had cut the gap to only 12-10 at 15.
They edged in front for the first time on the 16th end and led 14-13 at 18 and finally won by three shots.
Andy Moore alongside was always just behind for most of his game trailing 4-3 and 9-8 at five and ten ends respectively.
He then dropped a five to go 14-8 down but clawed his way back to 14-13 down at 15 ends and 17-17 all at 18.
He scored a two on the 20th end to lead for only the second time in the match 19-18 but then saw hopes of victory go as he dropped a crucial two on the last end.
Away in Chippenham, the Christie Miller rink skipped by Keith Fletcher were always in control from early on and led 14-4 at ten ends and had moved 20-6 clear at 15 before finally winning 25-16.
The other match looked to be going in North Wilts favour as Paul Macdonald's four trailed 13-5 at ten ends and 14-9 at 13 against Wayne Snook's quartet. However, a big count of seven on the '14th end changed the match completely.
Macdonald just led 18-17 at 18 ends and moved 20-17 clear at 19. But they were unable to hang on for a win as Snook forced a draw.
This weekend Christie Miller complete the two away rinks against Bristol while their next full Wessex League game is against Clarrie Dunbar on January 20 (10am).
Rink 3: Keith Hicketts, Dale Hayward, Dave Laws and Andy Moore lost to Derek Clarke, Bob Hayes, Geoff Smith and Matt Clark 19-20. Rink 4: Tom Newman, Paul Barnes, Bob Pratt and Brian Routledge beat Clive Swift, Keiron Holmes, Trevor Cook and Justin Davis 18-15.
Rink 1: Chris Easton, Adrian Bolwell, Graham Archard and Nigel Price beat Dave Edmunds, Andy Blake, Jan Rodgers and Keith Fletcher 25-16. Rink 2: J Bailey, Mike Savin, Dave Godwin and Paul Macdonald drew with Richard Jennings, Dave Williams, Mal Curtis and Wayne Snook 20-20.
Score: Christie Miller beat North Wilts 82-71 and by 13pts to 3.

Topic: Great checkup at MD Anderson
Since radiation in November, I have not been on any treatment because my CA 19-9 had dropped to 12. Well, after bloodwork, it shows my CA 19-9 has again dropped to 9.2!!! My tumor is slightly turning the same color as my liver......it is so stable that we were sent home with no orders for another 3 months!! Dr. Milind Javle says I am as stable as can be......its not usual to be as stable as I am...and the fact that my cancer marker is still moving in the downward direction. My liver and kidneys are in great shape....and the liver is regenerating from the radiation.
I asked Dr. Javle about Immunotherapy and since my tumor was so stable wouldn't it be a great time to attack it? He said he agreed it made sense but that is not how it would work. First off, Immunotherapy is still in clinical trials but has been approved for melanomas and lung cancer tumors. GET THIS: He stated he believes and hopes that Immunotherapy will be approved to start using in about a year if it is approved for CC. He truly believes it will work on CC and that it will be approved. I asked that if it was approved....could I immediately start getting it....he stated NO...you would THINK it would be like the Measles shot (you get the shot BEFORE you get the measles) but with Immunotherapy---you have to have an active tumor/tumors to start the process of Immunotherapy. I left feeling so hopeful and that it is just a matter of time (which we all know is sometimes NOT on our side) before we can squish cancer (even for our rare CC)!! Feeling blessed to hear all of this first hand from one of the top drs in the US. at MD Anderson for cholangiocarcinoma!!!!

The future of iOS music. Polychord virtual MIDI (BETA preview) from Shoulda Woulda Coulda on Vimeo.
The iOS music creation environment is devoloping. First we had great single purpose apps. Next there was audio copy/paste between some apps. Then apps like Tabletop showed up multiple devices in a single app. Coming soon we can sync multiple single purpose apps (video above). It's starting to seem like this is all heading somewhere. All you old time mouse point and clickers (myself included) better sharpen your fingertips!
"Now you'll be able to have your music apps talk to each other, while they run in the background, and use polychord to control them. In this video we show how polychord can control another app (MoDrum) running in the background — all through virtual MIDI, all without any cables. Polychord sends MIDI clock signals out, keeping everything in sync. Stay tuned — we'll have even more exciting things to share soon as we test out polychord with some of the iPad synthesizers that are supporting this game-changing new feature." – Shoulda Woulda Coulda

Family Christmas Traditions
ON CHRISTMAS DAY, my siblings and I and our families gather at our parents' house and take part in the Polish custom of sharing "oplatki", a thin bread wafer much like the unleavened host at Mass. We're each given a large piece and go from person to person, breaking off small pieces of each other's wafer and exchanging good wishes. It's a heartwarming way to reflect on the importance of family. —Carol Fischer, Pewaukee, Wisconsin

No disruptions planned for North Island College classrooms this week
There will be no class disruptions due to CUPE college support workers striking at North Island College this week, according to CUPE 3479 president Michelle Waite.
Classes were cancelled for two days last week as CUPE Local 3479 members picketed at all North Island College campuses to try to pressure government to move on wages in contract negotiations.
Waite says talks between CUPE college workers and the Post-Secondary Employers' Association (PSEA) are set for this Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so there will be no picket lines this week.
"There will be no class disruptions in light of the fact that the Employers' Association has agreed to reconvene our provincial bargaining table for this weekend," says Waite. "That doesn't say that there won't be any actions; there will just be no class disruptions."
She adds CUPE is keeping quiet about what those actions could be right now, but that other forms of job action are "a possibility."
She adds the main thing on the table is expected to be wage negotiations; the union wants a four-per-cent pay hike over two years, similar to what university CUPE workers received in their recent deal.
"We're hopeful that now that the Employers' Association has agreed to reconvene the provincial table that we'll have some fruitful discussion and be able to reach an agreement," Waite says.
CUPE college support workers, of whom there are about 3,000 in the province, have been without a contract since 2010.
Other CUPE locals at public colleges across the province — like Camosun College and Vancouver Island University — were also on strike last week.

WALNUT CREEK — An actor who has performed on stage and worked in other roles at the Lesher Center for the Arts turned himself in Friday on charges that he sexually assaulted two underage girls last fall, according to police and prosecutors.
The Contra Costa District Attorney's Office charged 27-year-old Jason Pedroza on Wednesday with two felonies — using a minor for a sex act and contacting a minor for the purpose of engaging in lewd and lascivious behavior — and misdemeanor sexual battery and child molestation.
The DA's office would not reveal the girls' ages or how Pedroza knew the alleged victims.
Pedroza turned himself in to a Martinez courtroom on Friday. He was arraigned and freed after posting $40,000 bail.
Pleasant Hill police, which began investigating Pedroza in November, said Pedroza contacted minors inappropriately via text and through social media networks. The nature of the messages was not disclosed.
Pedroza worked as an actor with the Center Repertory Company and also held several other positions during productions at the Lesher Center, police said. He also worked at a ballet school on North Main Street in Walnut Creek. He was listed as one of the actors taking part in the company's production of "A Christmas Carol" at the Lesher Center in December.
Calls to the Center Repertory Company and The Ballet School were not immediately returned.
Walnut Creek police are asking parents of children who may have had contact with Pedroza to talk to their children about him. If any inappropriate contact is suspected, parents should call the Walnut Creek Police Department at 925-943-588.

As health-minded consumers look to improve their overall wellness, whey protein — a complete, high-quality dairy protein — has all of the amino acids necessary to build and maintain lean muscle. A study presented recently at the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) Annual Meeting found whey protein to be more effective in developing lean muscle when compared with soy protein.
America's dairy farmers and the dairy industry have a longstanding commitment to sound, scientific research with a focus on better understanding and promoting the value of dairy ingredients. the U.S. Dairy Export Council® (USDEC) Global Marketing Program staff and representatives from affiliated dairy checkoff programs — including the Dairy Research Institute®, and Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy — will be at the 2012 Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) Annual Meeting & Food Expo through June 28 in Las Vegas. In booth #1458, USDEC is showcasing a number of on-trend applications for whey protein to help food and beverage formulators meet consumer demands.
"Consumers are looking to their food and beverages not just for great taste, but to support a healthy lifestyle too," said Vikki Nicholson, senior vice president of Global Marketing for USDEC. "Whey protein is an ideal dairy ingredient to help meet these demands — it's easy to digest and a complete protein providing one of the best sources of branched-chain amino acids."
Increase in lean muscle mass greater with whey
The study, funded by the Dairy Research Institute and presented at ACSM by the study's principal investigator Jeff Volek, Ph.D., R.D., associate professor at the University of Connecticut, followed participants for nine months as they completed a thrice-weekly resistance training program. They were given either 20 grams of whey protein concentrate, or soy isolate daily (at breakfast on non-training days or immediately following exercise).
"After completing nine months of resistance training, all participants experienced increases in lean muscle mass," said Volek. "The gains for participants consuming whey protein (3.3 kg) were significantly greater than for participants consuming soy protein (1.8 kg) group – potentially due to the branched-chain amino acid content of the whey protein."
Leucine in whey is key
The study builds upon the growing research supporting the value of resistance training combined with whey protein supplementation in building lean muscle. Whey protein naturally contains leucine, a branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) that plays a significant role in muscle maintenance and repair. It cannot be manufactured by the body and must be obtained through foods.
"Protein is an essential nutrient that plays many important roles in American's diets. Beyond building and repairing muscles it has been found to increase satiety and may combat age-related loss of muscle mass," said Keigan Park, Ph.D., director of nutrition research, Dairy Research Institute.
In addition, whey protein delivers these benefits with a fresh, neutral taste, which complements the intended flavor of a product and makes it an ideal ingredient, specifically for health-conscience consumers.
To find out about the variety of ways whey protein and other U.S. dairy ingredients can help food and beverage formulators target today's consumer trends, visit USDEC.org or InnovateWithDairy.com.

Though some people may claim their life is an open book, I think most of us would be known primarily on the surface level. We are known by what jobs we do at home or outside the home, whether we are married or single, whether we have children or not, maybe what kind of car we drive and the type of home in which we live.
A couple weeks ago, my sister, Bev, challenged me to come up with a list of five things which I thought people might be surprised to know about me. Some of those surprises are deep and personal, but most of them have been fun to realize as I think about who I am.
In the name of full disclosure, or nearly full disclosure, I now share some of those surprises in this column.
I think many people, especially those around my age, would be surprised to know I am a big fan of the Mumford and Sons and the Avett Brothers music groups, and that most of the time I can tell the difference between the two.
I think most people would be surprised to know when I am driving through the countryside, any countryside in any state, I notice the different designs of barns, specifically the gambrel and gable designs, plus their variations. This is something I have learned through my reporting at the BCR.
People may also be surprised to know I went about 20 years without going to the movie theater. My first time back was for the "Sixth Sense" movie in which this child sees and hears dead people. Probably not my best choice for a first time back, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I was a vegetarian for a year and still often eat only vegetables for lunch.
I like mowing the yard, but only with a push mower, not the rider. My sister, Marilynn, has conned me into mowing her yard, claiming a leg injury, for the past several years. I actually enjoy it, but I try not to let her know that.
The last live concert I attended was given entirely in Spanish by a South American woman rapper who was on a tour in the United States and giving a concert in a downtown Salt Lake City park. I don't understand Spanish, and I don't understand rap music. But still it was an amazing concert.
I have never hit a deer while driving, though I have run over a dead one. There is a difference.
I have been in the same room as Danielle Colby-Cushman from the "American Pickers" television show, and I have also seen a contestant from the first season of "So You Think You Can Dance" in a grocery store in Salt Lake City.
I learned to drive a stick shift car while living in Rockford. I still start to hyperventilate when I come to a certain intersection on State Street.
As I completed my list and sent it to my sister, I couldn't help but think I have had more fun in my life than I originally thought. Maybe it's a good idea to reflect every once in a while on the fun things in life, instead of just the challenges.

The Blue Jays have turned over much of their team this winter, but they're still depending on a bounceback season by Jose Bautista. Will they get it?
Over the past few weeks, Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos has orchestrated an organizational overhaul of Pygmalion proportions. Essentially, he's turned a perennial non-threat in the American League East into the division's foremost...uh, well the baseball equivalent of Audrey Hepburn. You know, she played Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady.

With a new owner and GM in charge, the Astros are ready to right the wrongs of the previous regime.
The Houston Astros announced late Wednesday night that former Cardinals scouting director Jeff Luhnow had been hired to replace Ed Wade as the club's general manager, Houston's fourth since 2004.

Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria would like to make a smash as the Fish move into their new park, but the team would be better off making only minor moves.
Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria wants people to forget about the Florida Marlins, forget about Sun Life Stadium, and forget about a miserable year that saw the team spend 92 of the final 105 days of the season in the cold, dark cellar of the National League East, only its second last-place finish since Loria purchased the team, unopposed, from John Henry in 2002.

Were the Mariners wise to issue a contract extension to Jack Zduriencik?
Last week, the Seattle Mariners announced a multi-year contract extension for general manager Jack Zduriencik, putting to rest the speculation that a second-consecutive losing season would put his job in jeopardy. Keeping Zduriencik in charge of the rebuilding effort for at least two more years seems like a wise decision on the surface, but how much has he really accomplished in his time with the Mariners?

This interactive graphic will allow you to look up nearly anything you want about Derek Jeter's hits. Each circle at the top of the graphic represents one of his hits. The size of the circle correlates to the value of the hit (singles are small, home runs are big), while the color throughout the graphic represents average leverage index (how "clutch" a situation the hit came in).

A new Nationals manager: the Cliffs Notes version.
On June 23rd, 2011, Jim Riggleman resigned from his post as the Washington Nationals manager, convinced he wasn't in the Nationals' long-term plans. The Nationals didn't look far for his eventual replacement, spending the three games bench coach John McLaren ran the team working out the details of front office consultant Davey Johnson's return to the dugout after a hiatus of nearly 11 years. Johnson will manage the Nationals for the rest of the season and has an option to return for 2012, according to MASN. At whatever point he is done with managing, he will stay in the Nationals front office to help hire his successor.

The Twins have been bitten by ineffectiveness and the injury bug this year, but it didn't take a magic 8 ball to foresee some of their season's troubles.
I touched on the Twins a bit over on the SweetSpot on Thursday morning, but they're a fun topic, and I can expand on it here. My hope is that you're willing to indulge me, even as the Twins retreat from San Francisco after a pair of losses to the world champs. They're 15-5 this month, so they still rate as one of baseball's hottest teams, and in a division where nobody's a good bet to win 90, they're worth listing among the living.

Can the surprising second-place Snakes make a run at the NL West, or is a .500 record a more realistic goal?
In 2007, the Arizona Diamondbacks roared back from three consecutive losing seasons to win 90 games and the National League West pennant, sweeping the Cubs in the first round before being swept themselves in the NLCS by the Rockies. Despite the disappointing end to the season, the D-Backs looked to be in solid position to contend for years to come. Six of the eight everyday players in 2007 were 26 or younger, and 19-year-old mega-prospect Justin Upton had forced his way to the big leagues to join them in August. Following the season, they acquired Dan Haren from the Athletics to pair with Brandon Webb to form one of the most imposing starting pitching duos around. As the young players matured, the idea went, the aces in the rotation would help them lead the club to glory.

A few examples from the Giants' recent past show exactly what Brian Sabean thinks about collisions at the plate.
On Thursday, San Francisco Giants' general manager Brian Sabean took to the airwaves in the Bay Area to tell how he really feels about Scott Cousins, the Florida Marlins player who injured Buster Posey in a home plate collision last week. This is what Sabean had to say:

While some teams have been stocking up on pen help, two playoff teams have let their own veteran relievers slip away.
This winter has seen several teams stockpile relievers: the Yankees' signing of Rafael Soriano or the Red Sox adding Bobby Jenks, both in set-up roles, command the most headlines, but the Cubs and Athletics and even the Blue Jays have been active as well. But set against that activity, two of last year's playoff teams from the American League, the Twins and the Rays, have let a number of their veteran relievers walk away, with little or no effort to retain them.

Is it possible in today's prospect-stingy market that the Rays and Cubs pulled off a win/win deal?
To see the Cubs step into the shrinking market for starting pitching was a mild surprise, but not that much of one. Very early on this winter, Jim Hendry was fidgeting over getting pitching help. What we didn't know was that he would wind up landing one of the best starting pitchers in play this winter. Most of the early-Hot Stove speculation centered on Hendry magically making Kosuke Fukudome go away, say for Daisuke Matsuzaka, in the latest exchange of expensive regrets, exactly like the previous winter's banishment of Milton Bradley for Carlos Silva.

The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is reminding people to be vigilant around tax time, when the scammers may be active.
Assistant Commissioner Kath Anderson says that while Australians have been generally good at catching out scams, 48,084 scams were still reported to the ATO between July and October last year. In total, $1.5 billion has been lost to frauds, and about 25,000 people have handed over personal information since October.
Ms Anderson warns that people should be wary of emails, phone calls and SMS during tax time that claim to be from the ATO, even if it seems legitimate. A scammer may be very convincing they may project a real ATO phone number into their caller ID, or use the ATO logo on their website.
The Australian Tax Office offers these tips to avoid "tax time traps:"
- If someone asks you for your bank account or personal details, or demands money, refunds or free gifts, be cautious.
- Only share personal information with people you trust and organisations with a legitimate need for it.
- Keep mobile devices and computers secure by changing your passwords regularly, keep your anti-virus, malware, and spyware protection software up dated and don't click on suspicious links.
- Don't reply to any SMS or email with your personal or financial information.
- Avoid requests in emails or SMS requesting you to click on a link to log onto government or banking digital services.
ATO urges consumers to visit their website for more information on scams and approved payment methods so that scams are easier to spot.

Wrestlemania 30 - New Era.
The night after Wrestlemania 30 the WWE have the chance to create a new era. They have the chance to make Mania 30 the biggest of all time, maybe The Undertaker will have his last match, maybe HHH will have his last match. We could be looking at a new era where the WWE moves along with the younger talent moving into the main event spot challenging for the WWE
Over-thinking about how good or bad WWE or TNA is, something we are all guilty of.
Whilst watching Monday Night Raw now it seems a must that we should all be on twitter during the show to see whats trending, then we should go on to various websites to see what everyones opinions is and then offer our opinion of the show. We all sit there and critique the show, whether we are reading
Hi everyone, first time blogger so just giving an opinion on something which I believe should happen at the Hall of Fame 2013. With Brock Lesnar going to be at Wrestlemania 29 and the company building a main event around him which will be a certain, then surely it would make sense for his real-life wife to be inducted into the Hall of Fame... the ONE and ONLY Sable!

Forget about losing. The way the San Francisco Giants are rolling, they might not trail again this season. After their 8-3 pummeling of Justin Verlander and the Detroit Tigers in Game 1 of the World Series on Wednesday night, the Giants have outscored the opposition 28-4 during their four-game postseason winning streak.
The Giants have not trailed since the end of their Game 4 loss in the NLCS and beginning with their four-run fourth inning in Game 5, they have held the lead at the end of 33 consecutive innings.
Three Strikes from San Francisco's Game 1 victory:
1. Giants are clicking
That Verlander threw 98 pitches and lasted only four innings was more than a result of him not being able to command his fastball. The Giants made him work by refusing to swing at pitches outside the strike zone.
The Giants' three-run third was keyed by long at-bats from Angel Pagan and Marco Scutaro, the first two hitters in the order. Both came up with two outs and both worked eight-pitch at-bats. Pagan got a break—yes, the Giants are getting their share—when he grounded a ball that hit the third-base bag and rolled into left field for a double.
Scutaro followed by showing why he was the toughest hitter in the majors to strike out this season. After working the count full, he managed to foul off two 98-mph fastballs and then singled sharply up the middle to score Pagan. Verlander ended up making 38 pitches in the inning, the most he threw in an inning all season.
In the fourth, Brandon Belt fell behind 0-2 before working a walk, taking a changeup that just missed for ball four. He would come around to score on a single by Barry Zito, who picked up his second RBI of the postseason. A .097 hitter for his career, Zito had two RBIs the entire regular season. Giants pitchers now have driven in a run in four consecutive postseason games.

2. Melky who?
To anyone who thought the Giants should have brought back Melky Cabrera after his 50-game suspension, Gregor Blanco delivered a message: Have you seen me play defense?
Blanco took away a hit from Miguel Cabrera in the third and another from Prince Fielder in the sixth with nice, sliding catches. Both catches came with runners on base and ensured the Tigers mounted no rallies.
With a .244 average in the regular season, Blanco hit 102 points less than Melky Cabrera. But Blanco has contributed offensively as well in the playoffs. He led the Giants in runs scored through the first two rounds.
3. Valverde's fall continues
Hoping to pull one positive from the blowout loss, Tigers manager Jim Leyland brought in Jose Valverde to give the former closer a chance to boost his confidence. Whoops. That didn't work so well, either.
Entering in the seventh, Valverde struck out Tim Lincecum before giving up consecutive hits to the first four hitters in the Giants' lineup and was charged with two runs while getting only one out.
In his past three outings, Valverde has allowed nine runs and gotten only five outs, which amounts to an unsightly 48.50 ERA. Valverde, who will become a free agent after the World Series, likely has made his last pitch in a meaningful situation for Detroit.
There was a small consolation, though: Valverde was the only Tigers pitcher to face Pablo Sandoval and keep him in the ballpark.

Sorry for being late and letting close member's not know earlier how i got on but this week here as been like a mad house.
I got to the hospital for 11am and they kept me in the day unit till 3-30pm till i saw a Doctor, they took my blood pressure still low and urine sample that came clear again.

He had'nt got my full details but new the results from my last 11 tests, he said one blood test said you was on the verge of being anemic and within a minute one showed being anemic, he asked if i had trouble eating food i said meat off a dinner but not meat cooked in sauce and apparentley that came positive, my actual gullet is drying out and not much juices or saliva is going down.
He wanted me to have a steroid Jab i told him no and the reason's why and i told him i suffered from manic depression and he said i could'nt have it because it makes it worse plus sends you paranoid and that's when i mentioned plaquenil and he said i can't have it as i've got to wait to see my specialist in january but told me that my joints and muscles are inflammed plus my past history of breakages from my epilepsey have'nt helped and he told me someone suffering ill like yourself with depression and coping with two forms of epilepsey and Todds -paralaysis don't realy need to know what they do have, i tried to push him furthur put got no where and was sent for a furthur 12 blood tests and two x-rays on my back of my spondalitis and my hips where i get the pain but i've damaged my pelvis twice in the past and caused severe damage to that.
I won't let it rest there come january, as like alot of members on the site i actually feel like i'm being fobbed off now, no more blood will be given as i'll be needing a blood transfusion at this rate. I've been so angry all week hoping i could start the plaquenil to ease the pain and symtoms.
Thankyou to everyone for your support and waiting to hear and i do apologise again.

A MAN has died after his car was hit by a train in North Yorkshire.
The incident was reported to British Transport Police and North Yorkshire Police at about 9.15am on the line at the Ivy Lea rail crossing at Scampston, near Malton.
A spokeswoman for British Transport Police said North Yorkshire Police, Yorkshire Ambulance Service and North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue service were at the scene.
She said: "Sadly the driver of the car, who is believed to be a 77-year-old local man, has died.
"The train involved was the 8.48am Scarborough to Liverpool Lime Street TransPennine Express Service. There have been no reported injuries to passengers on the service though the driver of the service is being treated for shock."
John Oxley, city archaeologist with City of York Council, was a passenger in the first carriage of the train on his way to work when the crash happened.
He said: "There were no shouts within the carriage, we just heard the loud bang and the sound of the train shuddering and then silence.
"I was sitting facing backwards so the impact sort of pushed me back into my seat. Some other people were thrown forward a bit, but not sufficient to cause anyone any injuries in our part of the train.
"The brakes went on straight away and the whole train jerked and shuddered and about 400 metres down the line it came to a halt.
Mr Oxley said the conductor then made his way through the train to the driver's compartment, then told passengers there had been an incident, and staff were inspecting the train and the tracks.
He said: "Passengers knew we'd hit something, but we didn't know what."
Mr Oxley said some passengers were using social media to find out what was happening, and emergency services were on the scene within minutes to reassure them and try to help the motorist, who has not yet been named.
He said: "My sympathies go out to the family of the man who was killed and to the driver.
"It makes you think that you set off on a morning heading to work and then half an hour later someone has died as a result of an impact you were part of."
BTP officers worked with the emergency services to remove the passengers from the train and transport them to Malton station.
Annie Wilson, who was walking her dog nearby, told BBC Radio York: "There was a gentleman in a car waiting to turn into Ivy Lea, and I stopped to let him go through the crossing - I assume that's where he was going because it's quite a narrow track there, and carried on across the field.
"I must have been about 400 metres away and I heard a loud bang, and then heard all the horns of the train so I wasn't entirely sure what had happened."
Chief Inspector Derek O'Mara of BTP said: "My thoughts and prayers are with their family. It is a farm crossing and people that use the crossing have to phone up the signal box to find out if it is safe to cross."
Anthony Armstrong, 33, who was travelling from Scarborough to York said: "I heard a big crunch when it happened and it was a pretty full train so everyone was quite shaken up really.
"We got off the train for about 25 minutes and you could see a car door attached to a door at the front of the train."
Mike Williams, who lives nearby in Low Moor Gate, Rillington, said: "This will affect people as everyone knows everyone else round here.
"There was an enormous amount of fire engines going down there along with a doctor and the air ambulance."
Rillington resident Beverley Goring said: "That level crossing is use lots by walkers who live around here and live on farms. It is dreadful to think that this has happened. It's really sad news."
Passengers evacuated the train and were transported to Malton. The line was closed for several hours, with trains replaced by buses.
These pictures were Tweeted from the train by Mr Oxley:

Washington, D.C.-- With Congress back on Capitol Hill for such a short time and the Sept. 30, expiration of the current farm bill looming, farmers, ranchers and a variety of supporters congregated in Washington on Wednesday.
The "Farm Bill Now!" rally drew hundreds of agriculture supporters from across the nation. The American Farm Bureau Federation and the National Farmers Union hosted the event.
"We are all united on one thing; we need a farm bill and we need a farm bill now," Roger Johnson, president of the National Farmers Union, said.
Joining the farmers and ranchers were participants from across the country, including congressional members and leaders from agriculture, conservation, energy, consumer and nutrition organizations. For a variety reason, not the least of which involves the nation's worst drought in five years, the rally goers want Congress to get focused and pass a new, comprehensive, five-year farm bill before the 2008 Farm Bill expires. While the House and Senate each have passed their versions, the divide between the two is large and election politics will likely stall progress.
Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., chairwoman of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry, said the new farm bill is "stuck at the moment,"
"Perhaps never in the history of farm legislation have so many diverse farmer and rancher voices joined together for such a common call for action on a farm bill," said Bob Stallman, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation.
The farm bill isn't just a bill for farmers. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, one in every 12 American jobs relates directly back to the farm. Rally supporters are encouraging Congress to reach agreement on the House Agriculture Committee- and Senate-passed bills.
The event was endorsed by 88 organizations representing a broad range of commodity and specialty crops, livestock, dairy, state and local governments, energy and bio-based products, farm cooperatives and financial groups. However, the National Pork Producers Council was not among them. Instead, pork producers joined in Washington, D.C., for the bi-annual Legislative Action Conference to visit with their representatives and senators one-on-one.
Congressional members who spoke at the event included Stabenow; Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kan.; Rep. Collin Peterson, D-Minn., ranking member of the Agriculture Committee; and Rep. Kristi Noem, R-S.D.

Alessandra Ambrosio By Russell James for Nomad Two Worlds/
Victoria's Secret man behind the lens, global art activist and friend to high-powered women like Barbara Streisand and Donna Karan photographer, Russell James shares a non-angelic photo of Alessandra Ambrosio in culturally relevant caves and a traditional Chumash Indian village for Russell's Nomad Two Worlds project.
Created by world renowned photographer Russell James, NOMAD TWO WORLDS began as a collaborative art project with Indigenous artists. In the last decade it has evolved from James' individual attempt to understand the clash of ancient and modern cultures he witnessed growing up in Australia to what it is today - a powerful expression of partnership, reconciliation, and economic opportunity in action through art, music and film that has become a global example of true collaboration across deep cultural divides.
One hopes that Alessandra's images will be published in a new Nomad book in the style of last September's. As for Russell James' V2, he produced some of the most sensually divine images of primarily Victoria's Secret models that I've seen in a long while.
On that note, I see that James has a new book coming out in March titled 'Around the House with Candice Swanepoel'.

When the power company told him he couldn't take time off to harvest his watermelons, Joe Sumner told them to stick it. Went out and made a whole bunch of money.
He's independent. So were his father, grandfather and great-grandfather, all of them cattle ranchers who helped put eastern Hillsborough County on the map.
Sumner, 69, lives on a Balm ranch, where cows stand in the middle of a dirt road and stare you down. Once, his family owned all the land from Boyette Road to south of the Little Manatee River. As a boy, Joe used to get on his horse and be gone. Take a shotgun, some fishing line and a bird dog, and not see another human being. Today, Sumner's 2,000-acre ranch is still spacious. Nestled at the back on the property, there's a hammock on a front porch that wraps around two sides of the house.
He turns the key on his Ford 4x4 truck and the engine gargles diesel. A dog trots behind the truck as Sumner and Paula Moore, a close friend, creep across a field to a group of smallish horses with flowing manes. He shuts off the truck at a safe distance. They slip out quietly, Moore carrying a bucket of feed. "Walk real slow," Sumner says.
To the untrained eye they look like, well, horses, but just a hair smaller. They are Florida Cracker horses, and their history is embedded with that of the state.
A 1500s import
Spanish conquistador Juan Ponce de Leon is thought to have brought Cracker horses to Florida in 1521, along with cattle and livestock and the 200 men he mistakenly thought would be enough to fend off Calusa Indians. Accounts say Ponce de Leon was astride a horse when he took a poison-tipped arrow to the shoulder, which proved fatal. The overmatched troops fled to Cuba, leaving some horses behind.
Over the next 50 years, several other explorers raised horses and livestock at Caribbean outposts and brought the animals to Florida for farming. Many of the horses were later lost or abandoned, and they survived in the wild for hundreds of years.
Cracker horses descended from the Iberian horse of Spain. They carry Arabian and Andalusian bloodlines and are genetically similar to the Spanish mustang. The Florida Cracker Horse Association has unearthed descriptions of the breed's ancestors as having "a short back, sloping rump, wide forehead, beautiful eyes, delicately formed nostrils and sloping shoulders." Those phrases could also apply to the Florida Cracker horse.
The narrow-chested Cracker horses stand slightly shorter than quarter horses and weigh less. Surviving in feral herds for so long made the breed more hardy and resourceful.
Great cattle herders
Sumner's family used the horses for generations to herd cattle.
"They have cow sense, just like you and I have traits," he said. "This horse has a job to do, and he's looking to see where the cows are going to go."
Those street smarts and toughness also enabled the horses to guide cattle through vats of tick repellent, an unintended consequence of importing Brahman bulls in the 1920s and 1930s. The cattle wouldn't walk through tick vats without being roped.
"Had it not been for that little Cracker horse to rope these cattle and calves with, we wouldn't have any cattle industry," Sumner said.
The cattle industry prospered. Ranchers bred for bigger cows and needed bigger horses to hold them. Cracker horses began to be phased out for herding duties in favor of quarter horses, all-terrain vehicles and even SUVs.
By 1989, there were only about 100 Cracker horses left. Concerned individuals formed the Florida Cracker Horse Association and began advocating for the breed.
A companion group, the Florida Cracker Cattle Association, also formed in 1989. That breed was also introduced by the Spaniards and later nearly wiped out through crossbreeding with the larger Angus, Hereford and Brahmans.
Pretty Tiger Lily
Sumner grew up with Cracker horses, but didn't have any at his ranch in recent years. Then he saw a dark mare named Tiger Lily at a horse sale. The horse reminded him of one his grandfather used to ride. He bought her.
In the years since, he has acquired half a dozen more, and also owns between 20 and 30 Florida Cracker cattle. In part, he's doing it to preserve a legacy.
"Horses and cattle," he said, "that's the way they made money. That was the thing that made Florida."
A few dedicated breeders have since nursed the population to 800. The state owns three Cracker horse herds, and there's a yearly auction in Brooksville.
In February, Carlton Dudley and Billy Ray Hunter rode Cracker horses from Cockroach Bay to Tallahassee to raise publicity for the breed.
Cracker horses are known for something other than cattle. Unlike a conventional trot, their peculiar gait ensures that one to three hooves are always touching the ground at any given time.
The result is an uncommonly smooth ride.
"They'll outwalk a quarter horse like they weren't even there," Sumner said.
The Tallahassee ride achieved its goal. In one of their last acts of the legislative session, Florida lawmakers declared the Florida Cracker horse as the state horse.

Return of the Finn ???

OK, OK, this does not deserve lots of media coverage
Though I am attempting to read between the lines
Mclaren Mercedes are ending their engine deal with Mercedes
Well not ending it, just allowing it to expire
Kimi Raikkonen is bored again, reiterating that he would return to F1, in a top seat
There is speculation in the media, about Hamilton and now Button.
Could it B that the Finn is wanted for the new Mclaren team, without a mercedes engine??
???19th June 2011, 14:18 at 2:18 pm #171578
The current deal between McLaren and Mercedes ends in 2015, when Raikkonen turns 36. I'm not sure that returning to F1 after six years is going to turn out well, though I could be wrong. Also, who said McLaren were definately not going to renew their deal with Mercedes?19th June 2011, 14:21 at 2:21 pm #171579
I doubt it. Kimi walked away from a Mclaren seat that seemed to be his if he wanted it at the end of 09 and since then he's had two years out of the sport which has seen a fair few changes. If Kimi came back I doubt he'd be on the pace right away and because of that a big team wouldn't gamble on him unless they had no alternatives and I think Kimi knows that.19th June 2011, 14:33 at 2:33 pm #171580
Red AndyParticipant
Are we on this again?
Kimi left F1 at the end of 2009. He has shown no indication of wishing to return, nor has any team shown any indication of wishing to hire him.
He is gone. He has left. Departed. Ceased to race. Quit. Absconded. Fled. Decamped. Withdrawn. Exited. Moved on. Escaped. Walked away.
There are lots of new, exciting drivers coming through the junior formulae. Let's talk about them, rather than some overrated, tired has-been who has indicated he wishes to continue rallying rather than fill a seat in F1. Even if there were one available. Which there isn't.19th June 2011, 14:51 at 2:51 pm #171581
sbl on tourParticipant
i,m sure kimi can find much more exciting thing to do than return to the F1 madhouse19th June 2011, 14:53 at 2:53 pm #171582
I wonder how many 'Kimi comeback' threads we've had now! :P19th June 2011, 14:54 at 2:54 pm #171583
Ah, another "Kimi back to F1" thread! It's been a while!
Red Andy is right, the guy is long gone and isn't coming back.19th June 2011, 15:00 at 3:00 pm #171584
Mclaren are definitely NOT going to renew the engine deal with Mercedes.
They could still B a customer that is true and admitted, by Ron & Norbert.
Though Ron is working on building his own engine. He is hoping to supply it to the
F1 works team, in the near future.
His side project is the mclaren roadcar. In the 90s there were the mclaren f1 road car, now he is producing the mp4 12c.
He wants to live the dream and create the british ferrari.
Part 1 the F1 team. Part 11 the road car (which is in the process)
Part 111 Mclaren F1 powered by Mclaren19th June 2011, 15:20 at 3:20 pm #171585
Kimi walked out on F1 so why do people want him back?
He's best of racing circles in America with fellow quitter JPM19th June 2011, 15:21 at 3:21 pm #171586
Ned FlandersParticipant
Click on pepsiperfect's name, and look at the threads he has already created. You'll find that this is the second thread he has started with the title "Return of the Finn". He's also created two threads claiming that the McLaren- Mercedes partnership is about to end, with absolutely no evidence to back that up.
I have three questions for Mr Perfect:
When did Raikkonen reiterate he would move back to F1?
What makes you so sure that McLaren won't renew their engine deal?
And, most importantly, WTF links the two issues??!19th June 2011, 19:19 at 7:19 pm #171587
Kimi Raikkonen left F1 because he had his championship and fancied a new challenge. Do you blame him? He fancied ago at Rallying and has gone and done that. Now, to those saying that Kimi has left Formula 1 forever is pretty clueless. He had talks with McLaren before Button joined the team, these talks went on for a while and looked like he was going to join, it wasn't a simply "Hey Kimi, fancy joining us?" And he replied "No" He considered it. The only reason I think he decided against it was 1) He didn't get the wage he wanted 2) Button wanted out of Brawn, and McLaren know they could of got him, and decided too.
Kimi has said that he may return to Formula 1 if its a championship winning team. So lets say Webber leaves Red Bull at the end of 2012, who would replace him? Buemi? He doesn't deserve it, he's just about managing to keep his Toro Rosso seat. Hamilton? Who knows. Kimi? It wouldn't surprise me. He has links with Red Bull and they are a very rich team that could supply Kimi the wages he would want.
I'm not saying Kimi will return to Formula 1, just simply saying that a return isn't off the cards and them long talks with McLaren weren't for nothing.
The reason Mercedes and McLaren won't renew their deal is because by then Mercedes will be pushing at the front and won't want to supply McLaren their Engines.19th June 2011, 19:46 at 7:46 pm #171588
Ever since he left F1 in 2009, Kimi has never totally ruled out a return. Only a few weeks ago (http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/91560) he reiterated that an F1 return is still on the cards.
And why shouldn't it be? When he left in 2009, he was still at the top of his game, and still one of the best drivers the sport has seen. And if he did decide to come back, who wouldn't him?
Personally I'd love to see Raikkonen return, almost as much as I wanted Schumacher to come back. To those of you who dismiss this as a wild dream, the more fool you. I wouldn't say it's "likely", because I'm not him. But if Kimi himself, a person who famously dislikes the media attention, says it's a possibility, well that's good enough for me.19th June 2011, 19:46 at 7:46 pm #171589
i cant believe that the only evidence you have given us to why Mclaren and mercedes will end their partnership is because mercedes will be up at the front and not want the competition, first who says theyll be at the front???? and do you imagine that renault will stop supplying red bull if they became good??19th June 2011, 21:53 at 9:53 pm #171590
The only thing redeeming this topic is the fact that I actually thought for three thousands of a second that someone would be talking about a Mika H�kkinen comeback.19th June 2011, 21:54 at 9:54 pm #171591

Seth Rogen and Jay Chou ready for action...

This isn't your father's Green Hornet.
More a "re-imagining" than a true remake or reintroduction, The Green Hornet is directed by Michel Gondry, written by Rogen with help from Evan Goldberg and stars Seth Rogen, Jay Chou, Cameron Diaz and Christoph Waltz.
Millionaire playboy Britt Reid (Rogen) doesn't have a care in the world...until his father dies and leaves him a fortune and a newspaper to run. Soon, Reid begins to see how crime is affecting his town and decides something must be done. With help from his father's former mechanic, Kato, and his new secretary, Lenore Case, Reid becomes the Green Hornet and fight crime.
There's something about Seth Rogen movie goers either really really love or really really hate. Rogen's got a unique sense of humor that's one part Mary Jane, one part Scotch, and two parts super hero. Considering the guy has stared in what I consider some of the most hilarious comedies of the last few years - including The 40 Year Old Virgin, Superbad, and Pineapple Express - it's safe to say fans who apprecaite this brand of childish, immature and inappropriate sense of humor, writing, and acting will appreciate The Green Hornet.
Again, this isn't your father's Green Hornet.
While the film itself is often times outright ridiculous and unrealistic, there's something invigorating about watching Reid - a slacker and immature, childish brat - grow, mature, and take on the mantle of the Green Hornet. That said, while Rogen's Reid is truly the heart of the film, it's Jay Chou's Kato who's the soul. Truly a scene stealer if there ever was one, viewers can't help but gawk - astonished and dumbfounded and much like Reid - at the sheer awesomeness of this Taiwan-born musician and actor's on-screen performance. He agilely kicks and punches his way through waves of criminals and holds his own with veteran Hollywood actor Rogen as the two spar - both with words and fists - numerous times throughout.
Together, the pair make for an exceptional duo, Rogen the comic relief to Chou's straight man. The pair's cooperation and competition makes for great entertainment - often at the expense of Chou, whose speed, agility, and poise make him the perfect Kato. Likewise, both men fighting for one another against criminals while fighting each other for Lenore Case's affection and attention makes for some downright laugh-out-loud moments.
Director Michel Gondry - whose previous work includes Eternal Sunshine on the Spotless Mind, The Science of Sleep, and Be Kind Rewind - does a solid job here, though at times it seems he steps aside, allowing writer/actor Rogen to take the helm and lead. While not necessarily a bad thing, Gondry's true skills aren't highlighted here (as they were in films like The Science of Sleep and Eternal Sunshine).
With a great cast - including Cameron Diaz and Christoph Waltz - one would expect better supporting acting. Of course, with this plot, it's hard to find it, though that's not to say they're not worth watching. As Reid's secretary and supporting character Lenore Casem, Diaz does a decent job, though her role seems almost unnecessary at times. While mostly eye candy for viewers, Case's true merits lie in her ability to cause Reid and Kato to argue over her attention, giving rise to some of the most entertaining and hilarious moments in the film.
Likewise, Waltz, who's coming off of his Oscar win for Inglorious Basterds, should be looking for bigger and better roles than this, though everyone needs to pad their resume with something. As the villainous and somewhat creepy criminal boss Chudnofsky, Waltz does what he can with what the character and story present...it's just a bit hard to watch one of the greatest villains in film history (Col. Hans Landa) play a no-name, forgettable character like this.
While it may sound like I'm bashing the film (and I am a little), overall, I found The Green Hornet to be obnoxious, crass, hilarious, and overall one of the most entertaining action comedies I've seen in a long time. While maybe not the same masked crime fighter our parents and grandparents grew up with, I'm thankful for the immaturity Seth Rogen brings to this new, re-imagined Green Hornet.
The Green Hornet is rated PG-13 for sequences of violent action, language, sensuality and drug content and is playing everywhere now.
- Jess C. Horsley
