Islanders still perplexed about Cannery Cove | Letters | Aug. 27
As a former park commissioner 15 something years ago, I'm still being asked what's happening with Cannery Cove?
Trust me: If I knew all that's going on with this project, I probably could do the electrical on a '70s vintage Volvo or something.
One thing I do know however is that the City Council must be happy with yet another item on their "things we should be embarrassed for" list.

Mexican Broiled Corn Salad
The broiler offers a fantastic way to give food the taste of fire, yet it's perhaps the most overlooked way of cooking. Here it brings alive the flavors of late-fall corn and peppers so they taste as good as at summer's peak. To help control the intense heat of a broiler, move foods closer to or farther away from the element--not just up or down the oven racks but also toward or away from the sides.

In the Beginning
'Wonder is the beginning of wisdom. Once you accept the principle, you will receive all the knowledge that you seek. Those things that nature denies to human sight, the Goddess reveals to the eyes of the soul. Truth is the beginning of all good acts, in life and in prayer, and those who would be blessed, should be from the first, bestowers of truth, for then they can be trusted.'

We have around 50 Macs here and I've been given a copy of the mind mapping software Inspiration to install on them. We have a Mac server here so actual deployment of the software shouldn't be too arduous. However, when the software is run for the first time you have to enter a serial number.
Does anyone happen to know where and how this information is stored? I'd like to push it out to the Macs automagically rather than go around each one and enter it manually if poss!

Like many of you, I cannot seem to get the Penn State story out of my mind. It is terrible what happened to the victims, and even more terrible that no one stepped up to stop this from happening. In the coming weeks, I have a feeling that we are going to find out much more about the case, which may become more and more disturbing. I am not a conspiracy theorist, but there are many facts that indicate a possibly cover-up by Penn State.
Ongoing investigation since 1998:
There has been an ongoing investigation since 1998 that has failed to make headlines until this year. First, there is the fact that Mike McQueary witnessed a rape in 2002 and allegedly went to Joe Paterno who then went to school officials. The biggest complaint is that Joe Paterno, McQueary, and the school officials failed to alert police about the situation. If you are familiar with Penn State and the area, you know that Penn State has its own city in Pennsylvania called University Park. The University Park Police are employed by Penn State, which would make it much easier to cover up than if the police were employed by the state. Let's just assume for a minute that Joe Paterno went to higher officials or the police, it would be much easier to keep the police quiet because they are employees of Penn State.
Ray Gricar goes missing
When the District Attorney Ray Gricar went missing, it was a shock to many. Now that the Sandusky case has evolved, many are raising eyebrows at the curious case of Ray Gricar. Why? Ray Gricar, for whatever reason, decided not to prosecute Sandusky in 1998 after charges were first brought up. Even more interesting, it appears that Sandusky is not the only one from Penn State that Gricar chose not to prosecute. In 2004 he chose not to charge Scott Paxson, a star defensive tackle accused of raping a woman at his campus apartment.
When Gricar went missing, his cell phone was found inside his car, but his wallet, keys and laptop were missing. Three months later his laptop was found in a river without the hard drive. Police discovered that Gricar used his home computer to research "how to wreck a hard drive" and "how to fry a hard drive."
Another interesting note: Gricar was pronounced dead this past summer, months before the Sandusky scandal hit headlines.
Theory 1: Gricar's disappearance had nothing to do with Sandusky and is just a coincidence
Theory 2: Recent reports indicate that the Sandusky scandal goes further than Sandusky himself. Allegedly, the Second Mile, Sandusky's foundation, doubled as sex trafficking for rich donors. Gricar was very rich and somehow involved.
Theory 3: Gricar did not have enough evidence in 1998 and continued to build a case. By 2005, he had a solid case built and Penn State caught wind that he would soon prosecute Sandusky, casting a dark cloud over Penn State's prestigious program. Penn State either paid Gricar to disappear, or used one of the many "means" that inhabits the Penn State area to take care of Gricar.

Stay strong and don't give up. I promise you that day will come."

You just make it so easy to fall for you and believe me, I'm falling harder with each passing day."

But the true and reality of the matter is that those what (if's) won't say, is that you can do it, it's possible, take that leap of FAITH, you will succeed!..."

MILWAUKEE (AP) - Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Yovani Gallardo has been cited for drunken driving after authorities said he drove with a blood-alcohol content nearly three times the legal limit.
Milwaukee County sheriff's spokeswoman Fran McLaughlin says deputies responded about 2 a.m. Tuesday to a report of a possibly intoxicated driver. She says Gallardo was driving down a Milwaukee freeway at 40 mph in a 55-mph zone.
McLaughlin quotes the arrest report as saying Gallardo had red glassy eyes, slurred speech and smelled like alcohol. The report says his blood-alcohol level was 0.22, nearly three times the legal limit of 0.08.
McLaughlin says Gallardo faces nearly $800 in fines.
A statement from the Brewers says the team expressed its disappointment to Gallardo and he is taking responsibility for his actions.

Re: WWE: A Strong Response
Great Smackdown. The #1 Contender tournament should bring some good matches. MVP and Dykstra were arrogent little pricks, so they were definately in character. Edge seemed in character as well. Edge/Chavo was an OK filler, I'm not surprised Edge won. Shelton's segment was in-character, and since it set up a match, I can't complain. Masters and Haas backstage was interesting, maybe something like the MFers is in the works. I'm glad Haas is getting a push. Finlay/Harris sounds like it would be a good match IRL. I hope Harris gets a push, maybe a US title run. Kenny was great in the interview, although he isn't on Tista's level yet. Matt/Shelton was a well-written match, I would assume Shelton will cost Matt his match next week. I hope they get a match at SNME. I liked the Pitbulls back when they were in the WWE, so I am glad they are getting a push now. One part I didn't like is that the UK Pack didn't do anything when the Pitbulls taunted them. You would think they would try to attack the Pitbulls or at least yell at them. Flair/Shane sounds like it will be a great match. You are great at writing backstage segments, and it showed during the Flair/Shane segment. Dykstra/Tista was about what I expected. I'm glad you made Dykstra look strong, but still had Tista win.

The Magic of September Wind
The cool soothing breeze,
Which blows today,
Shall not be the same,
Touching my heart tomorrow.
The night Moon which peeps,
From behind the moving clouds,
Shall be telling,
A different story tomorrow.
The stars which appears to be,
Singing a Song,
When the cool wind touches,
May not twinkle with a smile tomorrow.
The alluring clouds,
Which moves and swings in the sky,
With the dancing leaves and trees,
Will be forming some new shapes tomorrow.
The butterflies and birds,
Which sings a joyous song,
To welcome the blooming flowers and wind,
May not be spreading their wings tomorrow.
The Rainbow which has opened,
Gateway of colors to invite and welcome,
The migrating birds of September,
May not be visible even after Rains tomorrow.
All that moves and fills my heart,
With the beauty of Nature and the magic of Love,
May be pleasing some other eyes,
And it wouldn't be called mine tomorrow.
But the joy and love they have given to me,
While enchanting my mind and heart,
Will never vanish from the thoughts of my mind, and
It would remain there as a Song for today and tomorrow.

'Intrusive' issues snag Amla revisions, says Sen. Marcos
- Details
- Category: Top News
18 Oct 2012
- Written by Butch Fernandez / Reporter
Sen. Ferdinand Marcos Jr. confirmed that "unresolved issues" snagged timely passage of key amendments to the Anti-Money Laundering Act (Amla) required by global regulator Financial Action Task Force to avert putting the Philippines on the FATF blacklist of non-compliant countries.
"We [still] have so many issues to clarify and we want to put these on record during the plenary debates," Marcos told Senate reporters after the Senate adjourned on Wednesday night without approving proposed Amla amendments expanding the coverage of the law to include Internet casinos, preneed firms, jewelers and realty corporations, among other groups.
Marcos maintained that the Senate was working on a "very complicated bill [that] is very important, it is very intrusive in the economic life of the whole country. It is really very important, but it is very complicated."
For instance, he cited the concerns raised by Sen. Joker Arroyo about the potential violation of constitutional rights of individuals and firms targeted by Anti-Money Laundering Council enforcers, under the expanded powers proposed to be given to the council.
"Senator Arroyo is talking about the constitutionality of it," Marcos said, adding, "There are many more questions" from other senators.
Sen. Sergio Osmeña III, who is co-sponsoring the Amla amendments with Sen. Teofisto Guingona III, earlier named Senators Arroyo and Manuel Villar among those who have manifested intention to further interpellate on the measure, stalling its scheduled approval on third reading before Congress adjourned for a two-week recess on Wednesday.
Guingona had informed the Senate that the FATF, which was set to meet from October 15 to 19, "will decide whether or not our efforts against the global fight against corruption and criminal money are enough. In two days, we might fall into the blacklist, formally referred to as the list of Non-Cooperative Countries or Territories [NCCTs]."
He said the Philippines was previously placed on the FATF's dark-gray list because of "serious shortcomings in our anti-money laundering laws, a fact seriously recognized by the international community, by our Anti-Money Laundering Council, and by this representation."
In a manifestation before the Senate adjourned Wednesday's session, Guingona voiced fears the Philippines would "fall into the blacklist of the FATF and that its member-organizations will begin imposing sanctions against our country."
He said that being on the FATF blacklist would "send a strong message to the international community that our commitment against criminal money is not supported by strong will to establish the correct policies and laws against those who steal from the government, those who profit from the destruction of the earth, from those who rob individuals and corporations alike."
This also means, Guingona added, that any country now has the right to impose sanctions in the form of stringent requirements, and engage in closer, if not restrictive, scrutiny for financial transactions from or to the Philippines. "Transactions with Filipino individuals and corporations might be examined more closely precisely because of the suspicion that these could be [facilitated through] laundered money," he said.
But Marcos said there are many issues that remain to be clarified. "We are not operating under an idea that there is a deadline, but we will work and continue to deliberate it. As I said, it is too complicated for me."
He acknowledged that proponents of the bill have been warning about possible blacklisting of the Philippines that could adversely affect bank transactions and letters of credit, as well as dollar remittances of overseas Filipinos to their relatives here.

#1: The One With The Stabby Scissors
I made a podcast! (It's supposed to be humorously inept, or at least that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it)
Weakling Scum #1: The One With The Stabby Scissors
Remembering 'The Edge Of Destruction'
Without any preparation, research or re-watching of the episodes, Nat attempts to summarise the plot of the classic Doctor Who serial 'The Edge of Destruction', randomly selected by Steven and Josh.
I've set up a new deviantART profile under my usual quarridors handle and moved over the wildlife art and Doctor Who fan art digital paintings I'm happiest with.
It's good to have all my different accounts under the same handle now!
I wrote this article but, as always, if I post it directly in my personal Tumblr then I can't reblog it from any of the Tumblrs tied to my account…
I wrote an article appraising and critiquing this year's IoS Pink List, suggesting constructive responses and looking at how some of the eleven (binary, transitioned) trans* people included for the first time this year have inspired and represented me as a nonbinary, genderqueer, gender nonconforming, queer-identified, atypically transitioning, andrognynously presenting trans* person. Here are some extracts:
This stuff is important. I had an 'inspiration board' on the wall of my teenage bedroom, full of printed out song lyrics, pictures and newspaper clippings that kept me going through my last couple of years as a closeted queer teenager at a rural comprehensive school (1996 to 98). My board included people like teenage Age Of Consent campaigners Chris Morris (who was the same age as me) and Euan Sutherland, and famous performers like Ellen Degeneres, Wilson Cruz, Brian Molko, David McAlmont, Ani DiFranco, Michael Stipe and Skin from Skunk Anansie. Being surrounded by images of successful queer and gender nonconforming people and listening to their music made me feel like less of a freak and gave me hope for the future.
As a community, we need visible inspirational 'heroes' to look up to. Some people survive, get through it and are inspired to succeed and perhaps become activists themselves due to newspaper articles just like this one. It is possible to critique the form of an award and the nature of the organisation that issued it while still seeing it as important and valuable. As little as I believe in the honours system and the monarchy, I still found it incredibly significant and inspiring when the establishment recognised the work of trans* activist Christine Burns by issuing her with an MBE in 2004 and Stephen Whittle by issuing him with an OBE in 2005.
I see these lists and the tendency to single out certain prominent famous and notable people for recognition and awards as only problematic in isolation. If we let this be the only way that trans*, queer and LGBT people are celebrated in our communities, then yes, it is problematic. If we let this start a conversation about who else should be recognised and celebrated, the hard work that so many others do in our communities and all the different ways people make a difference, then it becomes just one of many ways that the deserving, inspiring people in our communities receive thanks.
When Dan Savage started the It Gets Better campaign, I was among the critics who found it deeply problematic. But it started a conversation that prompted complementary and constructive campaigns that focused on helping young people to Make It Better, and inspired many other It Gets Better videos that weren't problematic in the ways that Savage's had been. There are now some amazing trans* and queer It Gets Better videos out there and no end of testimonials from people saying how seeing them has helped them in the way my inspiration board helped me.
And let's not forget that we do have eleven openly trans* people and several more trans* allies recognised within the Pink List article. Forget the numbering and the different categories and focus on the recognition these people have been rightfully given. As I said above, I want to see more trans* people included, more trans men, more trans* people assigned female at birth, more nonbinary, openly genderqueer and solely gender nonconforming people, and I want us to work towards getting those people into next year's list and given recognition through our own community efforts, independent of The Independent. But let's not play down the hugely important work those who are listed have done to represent, inspire and improve the lives of all trans* people.
Travel writer Jan Morris whose groundbreaking 1974 memoir Conundrum and its journey through her transition (most notably chapter 12) was my first exposure to the reality that it was possible for me to become androgynous, it wasn't just something that some people were naturally gifted with that I could never achieve. I cannot overstate how important this was to me and how much hope and inspiration it gave me as a dysphoric nonbinary person trying to find comfort with my body and social role.
Sarah Brown, Britain's only openly transgender activist serving in an elected political position; a Liberal Democrat Cambridge City Councillor, and chair of the Lib Dem Transgender Working Group. Sarah was instrumental (along with Zoe O'Connell) in influencing Lib Dem MP Julian Huppert to raise the issue of gender neutral documentation such as passports in the House of Commons. Something that will be vitally important to many nonbinary, genderqueer, transgender and gender nonconforming people in this country (including myself).
Jay Stewart of Gendered Intelligence, an organisation that does hugely important creative work with young transgender and genderqueer people and is explicitly inclusive of the wider transgender spectrum. Jay organised the wonderfully positive and inclusive Trans Community Conference, that I was lucky enough to attend this year, and was previously the chair of FTM London, an AFAB (assigned female at birth) trans* support and social group known for being inclusive of all identities and expressions within the wider transgender spectrum. I have briefly spoken with Jay and seen him speak from stage and on video. He comes across as someone who comfortably challenges stereotypical assumptions that all trans men are hyper-masculine. Read him here encouraging readers of the Times Educational Supplement to celebrate transgender students and allow male assigned students to express femininity in their schools.
Journalist Juliet Jacques (in the 'Nice to meet you' section) whose blogging for The Guardian has talked frankly about the process of coming to terms with being a trans woman and undergoing transition in a very public and visible way that has exposed the human story behind trans* people's lives to a whole new audience. In her earlier articles, Juliet talks about how she did not have the stereotypical transsexual childhood story (in a way I hugely identified with), and tried on and explored numerous transgender identities and communities before transitioning. She writes about having been drawn to male crossdressers, made to feel less alone by the comedy of 'action transvestite' Eddy Izzard and going through years of identifying as a gay male crossdresser and later 'transgender' as described by Leslie Feinberg and Kate Bornstein. As such she is one of the few journalists to have written about transgender people who 'live beyond the traditional gender binary' in a mainstream outlet.
So while I am not aware of any nonbinary, genderqueer-identified or solely gender nonconforming trans* people recognised on the Pink List this year, every one of the trans* people listed above has either worked for their rights and/or recognition in some way, or challenged binary gender roles and the public's stereotypical view of transgender people through their openness, their humour or their own gender nonconformity. I don't know about you but, as a genderqueer and nonbinary person, I think that's worth celebrating.
I wrote this:
From my personal blog:
So I've recently been focusing on finding the right type of activism. I'm back on focusing on visibility. I might have been a poor poster child for asexuality but for non-binary gender, a visibly androgynous person who refuses to make concessions to the binary, while getting on with their life without apology, that's a pretty good example. That's a case study for the people who refuse to accomodate non-binary people because "everyone sees them as men or women anyway". That's an example of what's possible for questioning non-binary people who can't feel any hope that what they know they have to be is even possible.
I'm also focusing on practicalities, on presentation, expression and behaviour. Historically the non-binary gender community has tended to focus on identity, on carving out ever more specific identity divisions and celebrating the diversity of our differences. But in our day to day lives, those of us who present ambiguity have more in common than we do different. If we're presenting ourselves to the world as something other than female and male, women and men, it doesn't make much of a difference if that's because we see ourselves in terms of a gender continuum, as non-gender or as something else entirely. We deal with the same reactions from others, we have the same difficulties with gendered spaces, with forms and language, with mandatory gendering.
That's why I started Practical Androgyny, and that's why I'm excited to see other people taking the same focus on practical day to day living for those of us who present our non-binary genders to the world. This is the right path for me, this is activism I can believe in. And I hope it's one that will become a movement, that has its own visibility campaigns and activist weekends. If you want to get involved, please get in touch!
I'm currently working on getting the getting resources in place on PracticalAndrogyny.com, I'm aiming to do a 'shallow pass' through all the resources pages and make sure there's something written for each, with links to articles by other people on the subjects.
I've been looking at the questions people have been typing into Google to find the site and I want to make sure there are clear answers to all of those questions, even if it's just a word of hope and a link to other places to look.

Chargers defensive tackle Antonio Garay has some balls and he's not afraid to express who he is. The dude wears his personality in his hair, and apparently on the street. How many other 6'4″ 320 lb. men do you know who roll around town in a Hello Kitty Smart Car?
Anyone who would drive a Hello Kitty Smart Car with confidence would also have to have a sense of humor. Clearly Garay does — he told someone on Twitter "I was told the smart car is slimming on me." It sure is.
He also wants the VIP treatment when he drives the car. So much so, that he says he valet parks it.

Boston Red Sox pitchers and catchers report to spring training in just over two weeks.
But Friday, middle school students in Western Massachusetts learned a history lesson from the team.
On the eve of Black History month, the Red Sox shined the light on Jackie Robinson for the twelfth year in a row.
"You are being given a gift of a teaching opportunity in the dead of winter, before you're seeing the images of sunshine and palm trees from Florida," said Red Sox executive vice president Charles Steinber, who was one of several people in Western Mass on Friday.
He was part of the discussion of Jackie Robinson on what would have been the baseball player's 95th birthday.
This time around, the yearly celebration tour included the team's 2013 championship trophy.
Steinberg said the team's new ownership, which took over in 2002, wanted to make an impact on the African American community and the lives of students.
"When these children are 35 years old, they have children and it's Jan. 31, and the child says we're going to learn about Jackie Robinson, that parent whose child is now a middle schooler, will say, 'I know that story,'" said Steinberg.
It is a story that seventh-graders at Van Sickle Middle School got to know well this past week. They not only studied Robinson in class, they wrote an essay involving the player.
Students told CBS 3 that they learned different lessons from Robinson's story.
"I didn't know that he was called bad names as well," said Tommy Nguyen. "When he was playing baseball, he got hit in the head by pitchers and even his own teammate."
"It doesn't matter what you look like," said Kiara Lee Cruz. "It just matters what is on the inside."
Former Red Sox player and coach Tommy Harper also spoke to the students on Friday.
He shared his knowledge of how Robinson helped to change the game and the country.
"It's how you carry yourself," said Harper. "It's not physical violence that works, it's excellence that works. So, you're out there, not trying to prove something with force, but by your own excellence."
Students who won the essay contests were given copies of the movie 42 and tickets to Jackie Robinson Day at Fenway Park.
All of the students in attendance received a gift bag that included a Red Sox baseball hat.
After Friday morning's stop at Van Sickle, the group made their way to Holyoke for another presentation. The second event was held at Lt. Elmer McMahon Elementary School.
The final stop for the championship trophy was the CBS 3 Springfield studios.
Our staff got to spend time with the hardware, as CBS 3 is your exclusive Western Mass NESN affiliate.

US ISPs become 'copyright cops' starting July 12
Main ISPs introduced last summer season that they had agreed to consider new measures in an effort to stop subscribers from illegally installing copyrighted content, but the specifics bordering the imminent antipiracy measures ended up not made obtainable. Now, RIAA chief executive Cary Sherman has explained that ISPs are ready to start their efforts to curtail unlawful movie, music and software program downloads on July 12.
"Each ISP has to create their infrastructure for automating the system," Sherman said in the course of a talk at the annual Affiliation of American Publishers assembly, according to CNET. Actions will also be taken to create databases "so they can hold monitor of repeat infringers, so they know that this is the first observe or the 3rd recognize. Every single ISP has to do it in another way dependent on the architecture of its particular network.

Have I ever mentioned that I'm a total O-chem nerd?
From: Nearing Zero by Nick D. Kim
This is by far the funniest chemistry related comic I've ever seen.
And probably ever will see.
<3 it.
I think my favourite was most definitely the Nickel-Cadmium battery.
"Through the wormhole, the scientist can see himself as he was one minute ago. But what if our scientist uses the wormhole to shoot his earlier self? He's now dead. So who fired the shot?"
Paradoxes like these are always intriguing to me, but to me, it makes sense that he fired the shot, and then he didn't fire the shot.
If we think of the universe as a long, straight line (which, is more probable that it is definitely not) we have these little loops all over the place, where wormholes and what not overlap the linear timeline, and then continue back on their merry way.
For example:
A scientist finds a wormhole through which he is able to travel (extremely unlikely). The wormhole is directed at a point in spacetime that occurs about 5 minutes ago from his current perspective. If he travels through this wormhole, he will meet himself at the point 5 minutes ago. However, he would know he's going to do this, as he has already seen himself coming through the wormhole.
If he shoots himself, he will die in the past, and his future self will cease to exist.
So in reality, if this makes any sense and I know what I'm talking about:
He shoots himself, but there's no evidence of it.
… Right? :{P
Good afternoon.
A little tidbit of badassery:
God I love the British military, and with good reason too.
Here's a little ditty to be impressed by:
A British sniper kills two Al-Qaeda militants from a fair distance.
So far away, it set a world record.
Unfortunately, I can't find anything on the weapon he used, but to shoot that far it has to be in the .50cal leagues.
As for me:
Nothing much going on at the moment, wondering how long it'll be before BP pick up after themselves.
Also wondering how long it's gonna be before we actually prioritize finding a solution to this mess of a situation we're in.
Just my humble opinion.
Peace, yo.
Switching from blogspot to Tumblr.
Gonna try this out and see how it goes.

What I would like to see at the very least is to be able to mail soulbound items to your alts. Even if you can't use them if you could just get them out of your main bank it would helpful. I have pvp marks, hala tokens, other various rep items, old gear I can't bear to part with, etc. No way I'm going to ditch my current current gear I've worked so hard for and have been wearing for so long and I already don't have enough bank space. Larger bags even by just a couple of slots would be nice too. A third profession would be awesome especially if they continue to force us to take one in particular for good gear, ie Frozen Shadoweave Set.

Size and linkages of the Spanish construction industry: key sector or deformation of the economy?
AbstractUntil its recent end, the Spanish construction industry enjoyed a decade of unprecedented growth, absorbing labour and capital from other sectors of the economy in huge amounts. Using the input--output methodology, we compare the picture for different countries in order to seek patterns and identify possible distortions associated with the extraordinary growth of the construction sector in Spain. We find that the sector is plainly oversized in Spain in comparison to its closest benchmarks, namely a group of OECD advanced economies. The available input--output data for Spain, covering several years, also provide evidence of a process of 'deformation' of the economy. On this basis, we provide an initial estimate of the impact a hypothetical adjustment in the industry would have on total income and employment in the economy. Copyright The Author 2010.

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today's Behind the Scenes Pic!
I can explain! This time the big gap between BTS images wasn't work overload or travel (although I've had my fair share of both in this last week), but something even more beyond my control.
While in LA for a big Jaws Blu-Ray junket (video interviews coming up, fancy right?) my laptop took a little spill. To quote Hooper, "and this is what happens:"
Also I didn't quite have my desktop computer (or my computer desk for that matter) set up at my brand new house, so it took a little elbow grease when I finally got home to get me back up and running. Many apologies for the delay. It kills me to be inconsistent with this column, which was set up with the express purpose of being a regular, daily dose of movie geekness. For a couple years I've been pretty on the ball with it, but it seems recently the fates have conspired against me.
So, mea culpas aside, here's the long-awaited BTS picture, this time from the making of ET. We can file this one under the "this is why I love practical effects" tab. I bet you're never going to look at ET's hands the same way again!
Thanks once again to the good folks at the Practical Effects Group for sharing this one. Click to enlargen.
If you have a behind the scenes shot you'd like to submit to this column, you can email me at email@example.com.
I'm still scrambling a bit here, trying to pull as much material off of my laptop as I can. The hard drive still seems to run, so I'm going to firewire rescue as much stuff as I can. That's my fancy way of saying I'm not exactly sure what tomorrow's pic will be.

Re: Feel Fortunate ...
by ArmageddonProductions
... we got an E.T. BTSD pic of the "hands" puppeteer. They had to use all kinds of goofy shit to animate E.T., the most disturbing one, of course, being the double-amputee that walked on her hands, which they used for E.T.'s waddling around full body stuff. Spielberg got the idea from Douglas Trumbull, who used the double-amputee-walking-on-their-hands trick for the robots in SILENT RUNNING. As you can tell from the four or five shots in the entire movie where you see E.T. actually walking around full-body, it didn't work out quite so well.

Time to upgrade
by solvseus
I use that same model, and it's been great, but it's starting to show it's age. When I get some money together and sell my old desktop I'm getting another one (from B&H in New York if you're wondering... not affiliated with them at all BTW). The new ones are pretty nice. Looks like you don't really have the luxury to wait. Might I suggest a cover in the future. I always get a plastic or rubber case (like Speck, but they're expensive) as well as a keyboard cover. Not saying it would have prevented this from happening, but couldn't hurt. Sorry, I do this for a living, so that was the first thing I thought of when I read this.

On a side note, I once worked a boring temp job and sat next to a girl who's most famous family member was the unfortunate bikini clad skier in Jaws 2 who also (according to her) served as the model for the poster painting for that film. I don't speak of anything that followed Jaws 2. Speak no evil.

armageddonproductions: That's not exactly correct. E double amputee was used for only once scene...
by Emperor_was_a_jerk
The filmmakers found a boy (around age 12-13) with no legs who was able to walk around on his hands. He was used only for the scene where ET drank all the beer in the fridge. Spielberg wanted ET to have "drunk walk" and the boys particular "waddle" fit the bill. For the rest of the movie two different little people were used for the walking scenes- one a man the other a woman.

by bdc777
.... sentimental claptrap of the highest order. I've never understood the love for this movie. Aside from it being the most overrated entry in Spielberg's filmography, it derailed the careers of both Ridley Scott and John Carpenter. If this piece of shit hadn't had whipped up a bunch of dumb shits Blade Runner and The Thing, two vastly superior films, wouldn't have been overshadowed. Fuck ET. Fuck that film right in the ass.

**I had cut out a line of dialogue and inside the line of dialogue I manufactured artificially a new line: *This is what happens.* Originally, he said more than that. I can't remember what he said exactly. (Editor) Verna Fields and I pieced together, *This is what happens,* from other words he was saying because the scene was too long. I was able to cut a huge — maybe 30-second — part of the scene out, simply by cutting to the insert of the arm coming up and putting the words, *This is what happens,* over it.** - SS http://jawsmovie.com/forums/topic/finally-spielberg-on-this-is-what-happens/

And you'll see elements of Edgar Rice Burroughs, and even a touch of Ray Bradbury in the evolution of ideas. It ain't some wimpy Walt Disney lite kinda thing. It works as wonderful whimsy for kids, and hard sci-fi for adults.

Ok for the sake of arguement we'll keep it easy and just describe an ET bukkake. Ok so
by UltraTron
they're all standing there and instead of the woman it's an ET. So we've already covered the whole not gonna make a baby decision. Ok. So then they all start rubbing on the ET and squeezing the various folds and nooks and crannys and at this point ET's neck is fully extended. Hold on I'll be back in a bit.

Still works brilliantly. I've made a few special modifications over the years (well, okay, I doubled the RAM and put in an SSD drive). Still runs as smooth as butter, although the graphics card is getting a little long in the tooth. People say that Macs are overpriced but this thing keeps going with no pressure to replace it. Running Mountain Lion just fine (although I don't recommend people upgrading yet as that thing is full of bugs).
Aug. 5, 2012, 10:07 a.m. CST
by Keith
I like it. But it's interesting how it hasn't stayed in the popular imagination as much as other big movies of the era (despite it being the biggest of them all). I guess this is due in large part to it having had no sequels or spinoffs, and it's not the kind of movie to prompt a series of action figures and vehicles. (T-shirts and plush toys, yes.) Its 25 year anniversary re-release at the cinema went virtually unnoticed, as I recall.

More info on the JAWS line
by Monroville
I have sworn for years that i have seen the dead body of Chrissie in the morgue in the tray. there are a couple of my friends that swear by it too! from what i can remember, if my brain serves me correctly, i remember seeing like the upper torso sort of ripped from the rib cage up to the opposite shoulder, with only one arm intact, and i swear, that she had an eye hanging out. maybe i am remembering correctly or not, i am not sure, and i am not sure where or when i seen it, it would have been in the real early 80s on tv and i was very young, 5 or 6 years old, but i have loved the movie for as long as i have been alive.
Aug. 5, 2012, 3:03 p.m. CST
Stupid TB: even MORE info on the JAWS line
by Monroville
I saw this twice at the cinema in the UK. I remember the dialog distinct as I wrote it down that evening in an essay for school… it goes like this… "So this is what happens when a young girl goes swimming". The camera pans up and shows you more of what is in the container. Hooper then picks up a tape measure, and measures a bite on the remains of the torso. (I cannot remember if you saw this completely – or, if there was any dialog from the others). He then says "The bite radius" (and that is where the cut joins in) "indicates…". That's why when he measures the bite radius on the Tiger shark, and discussed it with Brody, it doesn't make as much sense… after all, you never saw him with a tape measure in the autopsy scene, but he's got it when he's measuring the bite of the wrong shark. That adds further credence to the cut.
Aug. 5, 2012, 3:04 p.m. CST
Info is from nitpickers.com
by Monroville
I'm guessing the TBs don't like web site links or something, as I've tried to post that for the past 5 minutes without it showing up.
Aug. 5, 2012, 3:08 p.m. CST
I suspect it was a cut to make JAWS "PG" instead of "R"
by Monroville
Maybe Speilberg had some bad experiences with the ratings board after the shooting and editing. Considering how well THAT went down, it was probably the icing on the psychological breakdown cake.

I remember a guy running out of the theater while holding his mouth--and vomit streaming through his fingers. I was 8 years old and remember seeing Chrissy in the tray. To this day, I can't get anyone but my father (who was with me in the theater) to confirm this--including that dickhead Spielberg.

ET looks real even when you can see the puppeteers
by performingmonkey
The only time he doesn't look real is in the stupid waddling around drunk scene. It's a shame Spielberg couldn't pull that off in any other way. When it's the main puppet it's one of the most believable effects in history.
Aug. 5, 2012, 9:04 p.m. CST
Mr. Douchbag: that is awesome
by Monroville
The bit with the vomit seeping through the fingers... I remember seeing STIGMATA (which is a decent enough movie for what it is, ie. an EXORCIST rip-off) and the movie had to be shut down because one of the underage girls who snuck in with her friends passed out. They brough 2 paramedics and had her carted out on a stretcher (she was awake by then, and looked thoroughly embarrassed). (Sigh) Remember when that kind of stuff used to happen? Now when they re-release THE EXORCIST you have 14 year old kids making fun of a little girl cussing. Of course, now that I think about it, it did get really quiet as the movie went along...
