Mobil SHC™ 600 Series Optimum-performance synthetic oils for gears and bearings
Mobil SHC™ 600 Series
Optimum-performance synthetic oils for gears and bearings
Scientifically engineered to help ensure equipment reliability.
From heavy loads to extreme temperature variations, marine gearboxes operate under challenging conditions. Since keeping critical gears and bearings turning is key to reliability, choosing a lubricant that offers optimum performance is essential.
Performance well beyond the capabilities of standard mineral oils.
Advanced Mobil SHC™ 600 Series oils are optimised with a balanced formulation to meet the changing demands of your vessel's increasingly complex machinery. The products offer performance advantages that mineral oils cannot match.
Formulated from unique synthetic base oils with an inherently high viscosity index and a proprietary additive system, Mobil SHC 600 Series oils provide outstanding performance in extreme operating conditions at high and low temperatures — well beyond the capabilities of standard mineral oils.
Mobil SHC 600 Series oils' balanced formulation also provides exceptional resistance to rust and corrosion, excellent demulsibility, and superb foam control and air-release properties, all of which help to ensure problem-free operation.
Reducing energy consumption helps lower operating costs.
Mobil SHC 600 Series oils have the potential to significantly reduce energy consumption in gearboxes and circulating systems — exhibiting energy savings of up to 3.6 percent versus conventional oils in statistically validated field and laboratory tests.* This energy efficiency is delivered without sacrificing the high level of proven performance and protection for which Mobil SHC™ products are renowned.
Long oil life helps extend oil-drain intervals and reduce oil disposal costs.
Mobil SHC 600 Series oils last up to six times longer than mineral oils. This helps to extend oil-drain intervals and reduce waste oil and disposal costs. A longer oil-drain level not only saves money on lubricant purchases, it can also reduce a vessel's environmental impact.

LETTER: Feedback? Arden Hills officials don't want to hear it
To the Editor:
I attended the recent TCAAP Public Forum hosted by the City of Arden Hills. I came to offer and to hear feedback regarding the very bad idea of designating significant TCAAP real-estate towards a civic center. The parcel was originally zoned as retail, but the city has now zoned it for civic use, i.e., no tax generation.
My hopes for dialogue with the project's leaders were quickly dashed when Mayor David Grant indicated that nobody would be allowed to "monopolize the microphone" (except for him), and that feedback could be given by adhering Post-It Notes to the posters on display. Interestingly, the posters had pretty pictures, but there were no cost-estimates provided. Nobody in the room, including project leaders, had even a remote idea of potential costs. It's hard for us to assess the project's merits without such information!
Also of note was that all options under consideration assume the civic center will go forward; the idea of re-zoning the parcel back to the private sector is not under consideration. This attitude of fait accompli only added to the arrogance of the evening.
If going for a swim and a spa is desired, we are surrounded by choices. If not the various health clubs, then we can go to the community centers in Shoreview, New Brighton or Roseville. Our leaders assume residents are a "wannabe" crowd. It's too bad the evening's leaders weren't really interested in our feedback. I now understand Ramsey County's concerns about the city's trustworthiness.

MSNBC - February 27, 2009, by Irene Klotz
Researchers in a Florida laboratory are working with the most basic building blocks of life to try and understand how biology first arose on Earth — and how it might appear on other planets.
When NASA began thinking about missions to look for life beyond Earth, it realized it had a problem: how to recognize life if it were found.
Scientists came up with a definition for life — a self-sustaining chemical system capable of Darwinian evolution — but remained understandably fuzzy on the details.
It is still not known how life on Earth took hold, what happened to a bunch of chemicals that made them capable of supporting a metabolism, replicating and evolution. But a new field of science, called synthetic biology, is aiming to find out.
One of the most promising developments lies in a beaker of water inside a Florida laboratory. It's an experiment called AEGIS — an acronym for Artificially Expanded Genetic Information System. Its creator, Steve Benner, says it is the first synthetic genetic system capable of Darwinian evolution.

Well, this is an outfit that "recreates" the fashion of two centuries ago on my island, women dressed just like that of 1800 here,, so this is the "Traditional Canarian Costume".
This is because today is a holiday on the island, as we celebrate the patron saints of the island "La Virgen del Pino".
During these days is a tradition to walk from all sites of the island until the middle of it, where is the Basilica (Temple) that "lives" the Virgen del Pino. And people dressed in traditional costumes of the island, which are varied, mine is only a model of it, but there is much variety of clothing and all beautiful.
The outfit consists of several overlapping pieces, a linen blouse and a petticoat of cotton, up goes the skirt ... this skirt is made of wool fabric and has about five meters in overall width, so it´s quite heavy.
I sewed this costume for ten years ago and it´s totally respects the way that the ancient inhabitants of the island made this clothing, the buttons of the blouse are made with a piece of tape rolled up on itself and stiched, and the waist of the skirt is covered with honeycomb stitch to make the pleat.
Observe how to adjust the skirt without zippers or buttons.
Then, the vest that is made of "rich" damask fabric and lined of linen... and apron, of course!!
And finally, the shawl on the head and hat to hold it. Cover hair was very important to be "decent"...
Do this sound like something to you???
I decided to "enrich" a little my shawl making a nice embroidered on the back of it.
So this was my day today, a little incomfortable with the heat, but this is a tradition not to be missed, but I wonder... if my ancestors were dresses like this every day... How the hell that endured the heat????
This is a mystery.....

Grantee in the News: Malaz Boustani in the NY Times New Old Age blog
A September 26th article in The New York Time's New Old Age blog cited, 2000 Center of Excellence Fellow and 2005 Beeson Scholar, Malaz Boustani, M.D. As a featured expert in this article, Dr. Boustani praised the methods used by French and Canadian researchers on a study connecting Anxiety Drugs to increased risk of Alzheimer's disease. The studies found that long-term use of benzodiazepine based medications resulted in a 51 percent increased risk of developing dementia. While it is not yet clear whether this relationship is a causation or a correlation, Dr. Boustani believes the research…

Grantee in the News: Dr. Timothy Platts-Mills Find Malnutrition May be a Serious Health Concern for Older Adults
On September 11, 2014 the New York Times' New Old Age Blog featured findings by 2014 Center of Excellence Fellow, Timothy Platts-Mills, MD, stating that as many of 60% of adults ages 65 and over seeking emergency room care may be malnourished or at risk of malnourishment. Dr. Platts-Mills' research follows-up on earlier findings that large percentages of older adults in hospitals, nursing homes, and rehabilitation centers may be suffering from malnutrition. Malnutrition can cause serious health concerns including muscle wasting, fatigue, weakness, functional decline, risk of infections, exacerbation of chronic illness and death. Common cause of malnutrition include,…

Grantee in the News: David Walker Identifies Gene That May Slow Aging Process
On September 4, 2014, Cell Reports released research authored by 2009 AFAR Award recipient, David Walker, Ph.D., showing that activation of the gene AMPK in fruit flies increased average lifespan by 30%, from roughly 6 to 8 weeks. AMPK, a gene that also exists in humans, is a key energy sensor in cells and is activated only when cellular energy is low. Once activated, AMPK helps to cleanse the cell of old and damaged cellular components. Dr. Walker's team found that activating the gene in one organ, such as the easier to access intestines, also initiated AMPK in harder…

In a few weeks I'm off to Europe for a 4-week holiday (mid-April to mid-May). Its tempting to say that 4 weeks is a lot, but it really isn't. Living in Rennes for more than 3 years means I've got a lot of friends I'd like to to visit, and in the years since I've left, they've been inconsiderate enough to scatter themselves across the continent (or so it seems, anyway). The last few weeks I've been wracking my brains to work out how I can get around to visit 20 or so people scattered over 5 or 6 countries (France, Switzerland, UK, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Norway). The additional complication is having other people travelling around concurrently, and trying seeing to what extent we might join forces.
Its all a bit hard. Every time I think I have a plan, something changes and everything goes up for renegotiation. I'm getting to the point where I have to start booking transport within Europe, and accommodation, at which point changing requirements will have to be ignored.

back to books
This year is proving to be extremely eventful. The end of March is not yet here, but already the year has brought me floods, a change of jobs, a couple of papers being accepted, the achievement of a long-held goal, a family wedding, a bunch of concerts and just a generally more active social life. Nonetheless, one of the things I enjoyed more and more towards the end of last year was getting back into reading, and I've managed to keep that up pretty well.
Since the start of the year, I've read 7 books, across a nice variety of genres. In a less busy time I probably would have blogged about each individually, but in lieu of that, and with more busy times ahead of me, I'll just summarize them here:
- The Code of the Woosters (Wodehouse): This was the second of three (see below) in an anthology of Wodehouse's Jeeves stories. I hadn't read any Wodehouse before, and they're nice little stories, very well written and very easy to read. They reminded me in time and tone a little of The Importance of Being Ernest, light-hearted and bouncy. To be honest, I can't precisely remember what this one was about - the three I read tended to follow a fairly similar pattern of interwoven personal intrigues - but its the tone and style and movement that matters more than the story.
- A History of the World in 10 and a Half Chapters (Barnes): I didn't know what to expect of this book, although Michael L recommended it, which made me optimistic. I wasn't disappointed. The book is a series of occasionally and very loosely related parables about, well, the world, I guess. Its hard to pull out more specific themes - certainly religion is prominent, and the way that it influences people's outlooks on the world. I got the feeling that there might have been deeper analogies going on than I was understanding, but that didn't adversely affect my appreciation of the book.
- Right Ho, Jeeves (Wodehouse): See above, more Jeeves, reliable and fun.
- The Breaks of the Game (Halberstam): This was an impulse buy based on repeated passing praise of this book by the FreeDarko guys and probably other basketball blogs that I've read over the years. Set around the 1980 Portland Trailblazers, its a really very well written insight into basketball people, from players to coaches and administrators, how they got to where they are and how they relate to the larger changes that were going through basketball, be the implications of race, the role of television, the growing professionalism and salaries, or the onset of injury. I can see why the book has the status it does among basketball pundits.
- Claudius The God (Graves): After finishing I, Claudius a couple of years ago, I had started on the sequel, but for one reason or another, be it needing a change of style, or because my copy was so fragile I wasn't comfortable carrying it around, I kept putting it aside. Finally this year I started again, and read it through within a few weeks. Like the first book, it treads a fine line between sacrificing narrative form for historical detail, but on the whole it manages it pretty well. I can't help but feel that the first instalment was better, just because it had more going on in terms of having 3 emperors (Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, with snippets of Julius at the start and Claudius at the end) rather than one (Claudius). I also felt that Livia, for all that I read she might have been hardly done by, made for a better villain than Messalina. Still, a good book.
- Notes From Old Nanking (Hamilton): This was a nice little book about observations made by an Australian diplomatic aid in China in the years between 1947-1949. This was the time when the communists overthrew the nationalists, but to be honest, most of the book is vignettes about the lifestyle at the time, and the revolution itself gets relatively little treatment. This surprised me, but changed rather than diminished my enjoyment of the book, in that it made for more of a historical portrait rather than a war story.
- Holden's Performance (Bail): Murray Bail is one of those Australian authors who I have been remiss not to have read before now. I can see why. This is the story of Holden Shadbolt, and his life between growing up in Adelaide in the years after WWII, before moving to Manly and Canberra in the 50s and 60s. He falls in with a bunch of delightful and delightfully named characters along the way - his stepfather McBee, his uncle Vern and friends Flies & Wheelright, the eccentric theatre owner Alex Screech, his love affair Harriet, the womanising politician Hoadsley, and the collection of bodyguards like Colonel Light and Irving Polaroid. The book is frequently funny and delightfully written, and when Bail extends himself he can be really quite adventurous with his prose. The characters border on caricatures at times, but all are treated with love and respect, and come across as very real. Its also really nice the way he taunts us with historical fact, references to the PM R.G. Amen, to the "one syllable PM" who follows him, enough to give us some context, but steering well clear of historical fiction.
So there you go, 7 books in 3 months. Last year it took me until at least September to get to that point, and so far I've been really enjoying the books, and their variety.

The IMDB Top 250
Its a bit strong to call it a quest, or even a resolution, but over the last 5 or 6 years, when I've been looking for a movie to watch, my first port of call has been the IMDB's Top 250, a list of films ranked by an adjusted average rating of all the users of the IMDB site. It has been a moving target, obviously - there are probably well over fifty films that have entered and departed the list since I started following it, so I've ended up seeing a lot more than what is currently in the list. This has been to my great profit - some of these I had never heard of, but now count among my favourite films.
On Saturday, I went down to Palace Centro and watched True Grit, the Coen Brothers' latest western, a good film with very strong characters and performances, even if the denouement was disappointing (note to self: if I start a film review blog, consider "disappointing denouement" as a name - its an epidemic). At the time I saw it, this was the last remaining film I hadn't seen on the list, so as of March 5, I have completed the list. I expect this will only last a few weeks at the most, but its something that, for no particularly good reason, I'm a little bit proud of.
I've had a wonderful time going through the list. There are so many films, directors and genres that I had never really watched, and would not necessarily have expected to like. I loved the westerns, from Sergio Leone to John Wayne, Butch and Sundance to Unforgiven, and new ones like 3:10 to Yuma (the remake) and the Coen Brothers' latest. I was surprised by how much I liked the silent films I saw, especially Chaplin and Keaton (especially Keaton), but also films like M, Metropolis and The Passion of Joan of Arc. I saw more Asian films because of the 250 list than I had seen previously, and really enjoyed Kurosawa, Old Boy, Infernal Affairs, and In The Mood for Love. Some of the films were "tough" to watch - Bergman and Fellini come to mind - but there was always something to take away from them. The worst film I saw from the list was without question A Christmas Story, which has no place in the list, but its the only one that springs to mind that really disappointed me.
In some ways, its a little sad that I've finished the list, in that I no longer have it as a reference to go to when I want to find a film to watch. On the other hand, I have a much fuller appreciation now of different filmmakers, and I know there are a bunch who I really haven't explored as much as I'd like - Truffaut and Godard, and the French new wave (having really liked Les 400 Coups and Au bout de souffle, and La Salaire de la Peur), and some filmmakers who didn't make the list, like Fassbinder. I also feel a little more comfortable now going back and rewatching some of the films, especially those I haven't seen for a long time now. Also, its only a matter of time before there are new entries to check out :)

up the creek
Some people who follow me on twitter and had some inside connections already knew this was happening, but it probably warrants a proper announcement for anyone else who's still subscribed here or elsewhere.
A couple of weeks ago I tendered my official resignation to QUT. In just over a week I will be starting a new position as lecturer in the School of ITEE at the University of Queensland.

Milwaukee Water Works
Our customers are saving water! Our Use Water Wisely program can help you find and repair water leaks. Together, we can help you save money on your bill, reduce water waste and conserve our Lake Michigan water resource. We designed the program in collaboration with the environmental group Clean Wisconsin.
From billing data, Customer Service employees identify customers with unusually high water use and advise them on how to find and fix leaks. They then mail customers the Use Water Wisely brochure and toilet leak-detecting dye tabs. Toilet leaks are the most common culprit of higher water usage and higher-than-normal bills. Most leaks are easy to repair with parts from a hardware store. Or, call a plumber for help.
Meter Services technicians provide these informational packets as they investigate high water use cases, approximately 100 a month. The Milwaukee Water Works has a multi-year program to replace over 156,000 water meters in homes and small businesses in Milwaukee and Greenfield, Hales Corners, St. Francis, and West Milwaukee. A letter detailing meter replacement is mailed in advance of the meter exchange appointments, and it includes the Use Water Wisely brochure. Meter technicians also offer the Use Water Wisely packets as they make their calls.
In a survey of customers who returned a feedback card, 76% used the leak-detecting dye tabs, 33% found and fixed leaks in their homes, and nearly everyone, 96%, said the Use Water Wisely advice was useful.
Sewer charges are based on how much water you use. The City of Milwaukee Local Sewerage Charge and the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) Sewer Treatment Usage Charge are based on the amount of water that passes through your water meter, whether you consumed the water or it dripped, leaked, and was wasted down the drain. A toilet that runs all day and night will waste 200 gallons per day, at an additional cost of about $100.00 each billing quarter or over $400.00 each year.
How do I know that I have high water use?
The typical person in Milwaukee uses 10 Ccf of water per quarter. Multiply 10 by the number of people in your household to give you the number of Ccf of water used in one quarter (for example, 4 people x 10 = 40 Ccf). If you are using much more than 10 Ccf per person per quarter, you might have something leaking in your home.
Large fluctuations in use could indicate leaks. Expect increased water use during warm weather months if you water your lawn and garden, fill a pool, or wash your car frequently.

The Week Life Carved a Backwards 'B' On Your Face
- Mr. Blackwell died and Sumner Redstone got divorced and something about Chuck Bass and Neeil Kashkari and the only winner, this week, was Tina Fey.
- Oh, Madonna got divorced too so now she and Sumner Redstone can finally be together.
- We learned who ruined John McCain and who slept with Austrian Neo-Fascists and how much the Obamas spend on their elitist clothes.
- And speaking of those elitist clothes! Sarah Palin spent $150,000 on clothes. Which confused and upset everyone! Even though it shouldn't have, they were just being elitist. Also the money was maybe not spent on clothes? There is a shady robocaller involved.
- Sheila had a fun week! She almost made friends with creepy Terry Richardson (don't do it!!) and we all read her email and oh, she explored what to do when you angrily storm out of the office before noon (spoiler: you drink). Then we learned about put-downs and other matters of etiquette.
- Lindsay Lohan did not have a fun week. She was cut from
Gossip Girl.Ugly Betty [Whoops! -ed].
- Ok so Ashley Todd called the cops and said a large black guy attacked her in Pittsburgh's Little Italy. He carved a backwards "B" on her face, for "BARACK BOBAMA <3s BILL BAYERS." Some people got kinda skeptical and it turned out the whole thing was bullshit. It was a heartwarming tale.
- Then Radar died.
- And Ian is leaving us. (At least for the moment.) Welcome Alex Carnevale.

On the Difference Between Remembering and Creating
It may be stating the obvious, but when you write memoir, you become a slave to your recollections. The story you're telling isn't necessarily "true" in any empirical sense. It's true only in that it's how you remember what you and others did or said at some specific moment in time. And it's likely only part of a larger narrative – the part with which you happen to be familiar. Although you are free to interpret the actions or the emotions of the players, you don't, when writing memoir, fundamentally change their behavior or how they expressed themselves. When you inevitably ask yourself — "wouldn't it be so much more dramatic if, instead of opening the letter at that moment, alone in the room, he hesitated and opened it in front of his wife?" — the answer may be an emphatic "yes, it would be more exciting or consequential." But that isn't the way it happened, and you can't write it that way.
I have felt the limitation and the frustration of memoir in the short pieces I have written about critical moments in my own life, restrained by the need to be faithful to my memory and unwilling, on principle, to improve upon what actually happened. Although there are many features of memoir writing that can be painful, there is one aspect that can render the process impossible – the deficiencies of memory. There are times when I am not certain what my own subjective truth is. I cannot remember clearly some core facet of the story – that truth that forms the basis of the piece before my thoughts and perceptions are layered on top.
Not long ago, I wrote an essay about a loss I experienced when I was 17 years old. One beautiful May evening in the early 1980s, Ed, the 35 year-old director of the youth center where I and my friends spent most of our free time throughout our high school years, died of a massive heart attack, practically before our eyes. It was a defining moment of our teenage years, but I had not written much about that day, with the exception of a letter, about twenty years afterwards, to Ed's daughter, who was two at the time of his death. I believed that the events were seared into my memory, starting with the picnic in a local park where we had hung out in the afternoon, through the theater performance at the youth center that night when there had suddenly been a call for CPR, and the terrible hours that followed.
In the essay, I described how that night had ended. I had been waiting outside the youth center for my friend D, who had been one of two young men to answer the call to administer CPR and who had gone with Ed to the hospital. When, after what seemed like a very long time, he didn't return, I went home. It was late at night. I learned the next morning in a telephone call at my parents' house that Ed had died.
I sent the essay to another one of my friends with whom I had spent much of that day and night so many years ago. I wasn't asking J to verify my memories; I was absolutely confident of my recollections. I wanted to share with her my perceptions, to remind her how much a part of that experience she had been for me, even though we are no longer in close touch. I had not expected what would follow. Although she remembered the sequence of events in much the same way I did and recalled me being central to how the tragedy unfolded for her as well, she had a different memory of how the night had ended. "I waited for D," she told me. "I saw him come back. And I learned what had happened to Ed." And suddenly, I was there too, with J, waiting for my friend to return from his journey – could I really have left without seeing him, without knowing something of what he had been through and making sure he would get safely home? With J's input, I could see D's eyes and the terror of what he had witnessed. I felt, with a certainty, D's utter silence as he passed me and went inside the center, unable to even acknowledge my presence.
And now, I'm no longer certain of the truth of those final moments that evening in 1983. I can see every detail as J described it, but is that only because I knew D so well? Or was I actually there? Did I really get the terrible news of Ed's death that night, standing outside with my teenage friends? Or did I learn what had happened later, securely at home and after a night's sleep, with my parents there to hold me up? My memory has been called into question, and it is unsettling. Could I claim in my essay to be there when D returned, even if I don't know if that is true? It would be the better ending, the one I would like to think is true because it speaks well of me as the friend I know I was. And who would be the wiser if I changed the ending? Only J, who read the original version – she doesn't claim to recall whether I was there or not. But I cannot fool myself. To write memoir with conviction, you must at least be certain of your own truth.
Fiction doesn't care what I remember, and, in that sense, the writing is intensely cathartic. I decide what makes my characters noble and appealing, what makes the story whole and satisfying, without the tether of my memory. But it isn't that simple, because, at least as a novice, a significant part of what I invent is based on people and places and events that I know from my life. Perhaps one day when I have gained confidence and when I can free myself from the ties of my own experiences, I will write more directly from my imagination. But for now, my fiction is built on inspiration and liberation – I am inspired by what I have actually lived, but I am liberated from the requirement to be accurate. I no longer need to match the story to what happened.
Nonetheless, the transition to fiction involves a different set of unexpected challenges. When you write fiction, you create. But it's more profound than that. You are "the Creator." As a religious person, I don't say that blasphemously or frivolously. In the small world that is your story, you are omniscient and omnipotent. No longer wed to the truth, you decide what people say, how they act, the consequences of their behavior. Ultimately, you have the power over life and death. While it isn't "real," it isn't not real either. It is something in-between. It can be wonderfully empowering and terribly frightening.
The creation starts with the small things, and, at least for me, it is subconscious at first. You name your characters, and you find, surprising yourself, that one woman has the name of a doctor who once helped you when you were sick, and one man has the name of a teacher who encouraged you. Someone else has the name of the first boy you kissed at summer camp when you were fifteen. The protagonist has your daughter's blond curls, and her parents occasionally use expressions you heard when you were a child. The kitchen table in my novel is unabashedly the kitchen table of my youth, with all the emotions of my teenage years and hours spent with family and friends etched into its wood veneer surface.
When you realize your power is infinite, the temptation is almost unbearable to make everything turn out better – happy endings for every person you have loved who makes a cameo, however disguised, in your story. But you have to resist, unless you are writing a fairy tale or fantasy. You are no longer writing the truth, per se, but if you write a story populated only by characters who are intelligent and beautiful and sensitive and thoughtful and always do the right thing, your fiction will not pass the test of plausibility.
And as much as you fall in love with your characters and wish everyone in your novel could live forever, the pull of that desire for immortality must also be resisted. Perhaps if your characters have no resemblance to anyone from your own life, this is easier. But when a character is inspired by a real person you care about, the impulse to rewrite the ultimate ending is intense. I indulged in some better outcomes and refrained on others, dictated by the requirements of the story but undoubtedly influenced by my needs as well. So while I pushed myself to let a character inspired by a friend succumb to her illness, as she did in real life, I allowed myself to save my rabbi, permitting the character he engendered to go on living and spreading words of Torah rather than perishing in a fire as he did in reality.
What lessons have I learned from writing memoir and fiction? That each, in its own way, dares the writer to confront her own truth, factual or imagined, and to determine how best to convey it to the reader. Memoir demands recollection and an honest reckoning, no matter how subjective; fiction demands a wise use of the creative power that both serves the invented world and pays homage to the real world. Each form of expression has its unique purpose and methodology – the writer's task is to honor the possibilities of beauty that inhere in both.
Reyna Marder Gentin lives in Westchester, New York, with her husband of almost 25 years and their two wonderful teenage children. After over twenty years practicing law, Reyna is now pursuing other interests, including taking courses in memoir and fiction at The Writing Institute at Sarah Lawrence College. She has published in Mothers Always Write, Mamalode, and The Jewish Literary Journal, and is currently working on her first novel.

Most talented
I was hesitant to see Primal Fear until I saw Norton's incredible performance. And Fight Club remains to be one of my favorite movies of all time. He does everything well, and that's pretty much a must-do for actors. Most of the actors on this list are incredible, but Edward Norton should be higher up.
American History X, Primal Fear, Fight Club.3 of my favourite films of the 90's. Should have won at least 1 oscar if not 2.
Surprised to see Edward this low. His performance in American History X was Oscar worthy and Fight Club was great. As the first comment stated, I also wonder what he has been up to. I haven't seen him in many Hollywood movies since his heyday in the late 90s.
The perfect Bond for the 90s and many other great performances outside of the franchise like The Thomas Crown affair, Dante's peak and The Tailor of Panama. - Szonana
His best film of James Bond was a prestigious performance
Two questions:
1. Am I the only one who knows Pierce Brosnan ONLY cause he was in Mamma Mia 1and 2?
and 2: WHY THE HECK ISN'T JOHN STAMOS ON THIS LIST?!?!?!
All bond flicks...remington steele...this guy

At first he finished his college then became a television actor slowly slowly he gained popularity and came to Hollywood then he married Afton Smith and became successful when Afton saw that he was not earning much she gave him divorce then he was still good but suddenly his career failed and Hollywood had thrown him out now in 2017 Mummy they didn't give him the leading role instead they gave it to Tom Cruise. It has been years since had appeared at the big screen now he's offered "The Field" a Bollywood movie. Best of luck to him if he is reading this comment.☺
He must be back in Hollywood. He is a really talented actor. The reason his career had drown is because of his stupid Ex-wife Afton smith who is a gold digger. Just used him for money. She came into his life and went away just like a passing cloud. But his fans would pray for him to be back in Hollywood. Best of luck for his upcoming Bollywood movie "The fields" ☺

Everybody Wants Some!!
Set in 1980 in a university in Texas, a group of baseball players assemble in a run-down house two days before classes begin. But instead of getting ready for classes or actually playing baseball, all they do is to look for parties and girls, or to play juvenile games and pranks with each other. There are quite a few people living in the house. Although it's not hard to distinguish them by their distinct facial hair and personalities, it's hard to figure out what their names are and why they are in the house. They are pretty much a bunch of horny guys who live up to the tradition of a college fraternity house except that they neither live in one nor look like a frat boy.
However, two guys' names actually stand out and stick around: one is Jake (Blake Jenner), the blond freshman who is always called out and picked on by other housemates; the other is Beuter (Will Brittain), Jake's cowboy roommate who appears clueless while being made fun of because of his name. The rest, you can just call them lascivious, immature, cocky, and freaky guys.
There isn't really a narrative to follow in the film, except Jake's wooing of a theater-major Beverly (Zoey Deutch). The film leisurely and loosely follows these ballplayers from one party to another, and eventually catches them playing baseball for once. It's a big relief that the '80s is finally behind us after two hours.
This isn't the first time for the write-director Richard Linklater to tell his stories and to craft his characters with the most ordinary everyday happenings. His Oscar-nominated "Boyhood" (2015) and Before Trilogy all created fantastic characters via small yet philosophical talks in daily lives. But that's not the case in this film. This film's characters appear to be nothing more than being dumb, drunk, and obnoxious. The film might trigger some people's memories about college life, but it fails to remind me why I should care about that period or about these guys.
But the film's biggest problem is casting. These actors are in their late 20s if not in their 30s while playing college kids. With their awkward mustaches, you would think they might be occupying the college campus while visiting their nephews or nieces. They look absolutely ridiculous and pathetic when they chase college girls and get wasted. If you witness a real fraternity party on a college campus, even though it won't be pretty, at least they might be easier on the eyes than these bums in the film. Maybe it's true that everybody wants some, but I want nothing from these guys in the film.
"Everybody Wants Some!!," a Paramount Pictures release, opens on Friday, April 1, 2016 in San Francisco Bay Area.

We suspect that there's no other way to watch Jonah Hill and Russell Brand than in an expletive-riddled red band video.
Putting a green leash on them - as happened with the earlier trailer for their transatlantic jaunt Get Him To The Greek - is like neutering your prize mule. Or cutting your nose off to spite your face. Or something.
So we're ecstatic that a new, filthy, flea-bitten (sort of), foul-mouthed trailer for Get Him To The Greek has been released online. The green peek was okay, but this is the one that really gets the party going.
"I got six fucking kids!" rages P-Diddy. "You know how many pairs of Air Jordan six kids wear?!"
Apart from a few expletives, what else do we get from this new trailer? Well, a lot! Jonah Hill having sex in a toilet, then having a dildo slapped in his face, then secreting a package in a very intimate place at an airport....
If that sounds like your idea of fun, why are you reading this?! Get down there, click play on that video and get giggling...
Pitched as a dirty-minded Midnight Run , Get Him To The Greek stars Russell Brand as out-there rocker Aldous Snow (a part he previously played in Forgetting Sarah Marshall ). Jonah Hill's record company assistant has to get him to fly from London to LA.
It's a tough job, and one made tougher by the fact that all Snow's interesting in is partying. Oh it's a hard life being a rocker. The film opens here on 25 June, 2010.
Seeing red? And liking it?

Léo Apotheker left the helm at computer giant Hewlett-Packard in September. He'd been there less than a year and lost inventors billions. Now he's back, or at least speaking publicly.
Veteran software analyst Rick Sherlund, with Nomura Group, hosted a conference call with Apotheker this morning. Sherlund tends to ask smart questions and Apotheker has a uniquely vast perspective on the industry. Apotheker has seen this industry from each side: hardware and software. Before attempting to re-invigorate HP he had a long stint at German software firm SAP. Both companies are competing with Oracle, IBM, and the smaller Web software firms like Salesforce.com and Workday.
A few key points from Apotheker:
Kevin Durant's Business Partner Rich Kleiman On How Star Athletes Are Handling The Coronavirus Crisis.
Virus Expert: Drugs Touted By Trump Likely Won't Cure Coronavirus, But This Treatment Could
Exclusive Poll: Many Millennials Remain Unconcerned About Coronavirus — Still Socializing, Dining Out, Dating
-On the subject of building vs. buying cloud software, and whether we'll see more acquisitions like Oracle's recent purchase of Taleo and SAP's acquisition of SuccessFactors:
"There's a real cultural issue at the big companies. The DNA isn't there. The temptation for them is to port existing technology into the cloud. That's impossible. So that's why you see Oracle and SAP doing these acquisitions. They realized they have to buy and then build on the platforms they are buying.
Both companies, SAP and Oracle, have a lot of catching up to do. It isn't just technical work, meaning building apps. They need to re-skill their salesforces. They aren't used to selling these edge applications. They're used to dealing with one or two corporate buyers who buy the whole suite. They need new models for compensation. Then you have the big issue of maintenance revenues."
-Sherlund pointed out that in client server era, best of breed lost out to integration. Will we see the same in the cloud?
"You can argue either case passionately. What will at the end of the day prevail is the data model. It is all about capturing the data and having it at your disposal to run a smart business. Computers will be exchanging data, people will simply collect that data. You need a coherent data model to do that.
Big data aims to combine the two types (structured and unstructured) so you can mine it. Let's say you do a call into a call center. Your name pops up. I can see all your purchases. I can analyze the tone of your voice. I can look at your tweets, your Facebook activity and say I decide you are an important customer. You are annoyed. So I will pass you on to a human being in New York who will sell you something. All of this data is combined on huge fast machines. That is big data."
-On the subject of customers buying integrated hardware and software stacks:
"Your hardware moves every four years. Software is different. So you won't buy an integrated appliance. You'd be depriving yourself of an innovation cycle."
-Sherlund asked whether manufacturing software will move to the cloud, mentioning that the privately-held Workday told him last year they have to plans to take on manufacturing. Apotheker agreed:
"Yes, I believe so. There's tremendous complexity. My guess is that manufacturing will be the last thing that moves into the cloud. Design, though, is moving into the cloud already."
-On HANA, SAP's in-memory database:
"I announced HANA. I was a big believer in it. An in memory database has huge advantages and great promise. I hope SAP comes up with an application that has been designed specifically for a high speed database. The vast majority of applications are designed for the client server era. We haven't yet built the algorithms and all of the logic into software so it is real time all the time. That would be the killer app.
Also, the trick is: can SAP deploy the salesforce so that their salespeople know how to sell something they weren't traditionally good at selling, which is technology. How would you deploy HANA in this circumstance? How can you make this piece of data more relevant? The SAP salesforce needs training to be able to do this."
-Sherlund asked: Is big data a risk or opportunity to Oracle?
"That's a super smart question. Pragmatically speaking if you run a business that has a profit pool that has probably way beyond 90% margin, and it is cash rich because people pay in advance, then when you do something that cannibalizes that business, that's a big challenge. That can be a painful transition. Maybe they can manage to do it."

Study Genesis 1 with John Walton
John Walton has written several Logos resources about Genesis 1:
In The Lost World of Genesis One: Ancient Cosmology and the Origins Debate, John Walton presents and defends twenty propositions supporting a literary and theological understanding of Genesis 1 within the context of the ancient Near Eastern world. He also unpacks its implications for our modern scientific understanding of origins. This work is deal for students, professors, pastors, and lay readers with an interest in the intelligent design controversy and creation-evolution debates. Walton's thoughtful analysis unpacks seldom appreciated aspects of the biblical text and sets Bible-believing scientists free to investigate the question of origins.
In Genesis 1 as Ancient Cosmology, John Walton presents comparative studies of ancient texts and their cosmologies. The first half of the book focuses on the ancient texts that inform our understanding of Near Eastern cosmology. Egyptian, Sumerian, and Akkadian texts are the primary focus, but occasionally Ugaritic and Hittite are included as appropriate. Walton posits that functional ontology was pervasive in ancient writing because bringing about order and functionality was the very essence of creative activity.

In CA and Other States, Black Migration Alters the Political Landscape
LOS ANGELES—African-Americans once were clustered so heavily in urban areas that the terms "black" and "inner city" came to be used almost synonymously. According to the 2010 U.S. Census results, that time is history. While blacks have by no means vanished from cities, unprecedented numbers have headed for the suburbs or left the big cities of the North and headed south.

GOP Ploy: Blame Black Joblessness on President Obama
Commentary, Earl Ofari Hutchinson LOS ANGELES, Calif.–GOP presidential contenders Michelle Bachman and Newt Gingrich figured out yet another ploy to knock President Obama. Blame him for joblessness among blacks now at nearly Great Depression levels, especially for young black males. Both candidates made the claim in recent speeches at the Republican Leadership Conference. Gingrich got so carried away with this absurd notion that he went off the deep end by claiming that Obama's … Read entire article »

Redistricting Black Political Survival
Ask the average person about redistricting and the response, most likely, would be a perplexed stare. Yet, redistricting is one of the fundamental "deciders" of who gets to represent the community (district) in the Congress (House of Representatives only); the state Senate, the state Assembly and the state Board of Equalization. (The county and the city officials draw their own district lines). It is important to understand the rationale behind the state mandated redistricting … Read entire article »

Back in March, he realized that the fledgling panel, with its 14 citizen members drawing political districts instead of politicians and its commitment to openness and transparency instead of behind-the-scenes deal-making, offered a golden opportunity for conservative Californians to influence the redistricting process at a time when their political clout was waning … Read entire article »
