Three 2013 MOBO award nominations for Croydon
2:00pm Thursday 12th September 2013 in News By Andrew Bloss, Reporter
Croydon continues to be a hotbed of musical talent after three musicians received MOBO music award nominations.
Former Norbury Manor Business and Enterprise College student Lianne La Havas, hip hop duo Krept and Konan and African musician Frank Cobbinah have all been nominated at the Music of Black Origin Awards.
Rappers Karl Wilson and Casvo Johnson, aka Krept and Konan, have been nominated in the best newcomer category. They also debuted in the album charts this week at number 19 with Young Kingz.
It has been an emotional time for Mr Wilson who released a tribute song for his murdered stepfather Carlton Ned who was shot at his home in Thornton Heath in July 2011.
The track, called My Story, has clocked up nearly 600,000 views on YouTube and Mr Wilson said it was a relief to get nominated for a MOBO award and get in the chart within days of each other.
He said: "I am really happy. It is just crazy to be nominated. "We both put our lives into this and our past experiences shaped the album. There are paths you don't want to go down and we want to tell that to young people, not to get into gangs."
He added: "I think it is good talent from Croydon is being recognised as well. It opens up doors for everyone to get a shot at chasing their dream of being a musician."
In addition to Krept and Konan, musician Frank 'Kwame' Cobbinah aka Atumpan was nominated for Best African Act.
Mr Cobbinah, 26, who hails from Ghana but lives in West Croydon with his family when he is not touring, said it has been a long journey to get recognition for his music, which he says spans a range of genres from dancefloor to deep house.
He said: "It feels really good to be nominated. It came out of nowhere so it was a nice surprise. I started off as a studio boy more than ten years ago so to now have my own music and a nominated is great."
Lastly, Lianne La Havas, who studied in Croydon, has been nominated for the Best Female Act which sees her up against Jessie J, Rita Ora, Jessie Ware and Laura Mvula.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- In a major victory for the electronics industry, a jury decided yesterday that IBM Corp. was not responsible for cancers that developed in two former employees at a disk drive plant.
A jury deliberated for less than two days before clearing the computer company of claims that the harsh chemicals used in the factory contributed to the disease that afflicted the two retirees in the 1990s.
The trial, which was the first of more than 200 similar civil lawsuits against IBM, riveted the high-tech industry, in which workers don protective suits to shield both themselves and sensitive electronics.
The two retirees who brought the case contended that IBM hid the dangers of their job. IBM said the decisive victory vindicated Big Blue.
"We're pleased with the result," said IBM spokesman Chris Andrews. "It's an acknowledgment that employee safety and health is part of our culture."
Retiree James Moore, 62, began working for IBM in the 1960s and suffers from non-Hodgkins lymphoma. His attorney asked jurors to award him $11,000 per year for the rest of his life in lost wages, $26,000 in medical expenses, and possibly millions for pain and suffering.
Moore looked unemotional as the verdict was read in Santa Clara County Superior Court. Afterward, he said he felt disappointed and betrayed.
"I trusted these guys. I trusted IBM," Moore said. "If I knew then what I know now, I would have walked off the job."
Alida Hernandez, 73, a 14-year veteran of the San Jose plant, said during three months of courtroom testimony that IBM intentionally hoodwinked workers about the foul-smelling chemical mixtures that soaked her chest and arms.
Hernandez suffered from liver damage and breast cancer that resulted in a mastectomy, and she was asking for at least $8 million.
"The only thing I can say is at least I got the word out," Hernandez said.
"I hope someday California will change the law so they will tell people what they are working with, and so it won't be a silent poisoning."
In closing arguments, IBM attorney Robert Weber called the case "pure hokum," dismissing the notion that the chemicals caused poisoning or cancer.
Armonk, N.Y.-based IBM is facing similar lawsuits in Silicon Valley, New York, and Minnesota, including about 40 involving birth defects in children of IBM workers. The first of those other cases is due to go to court Tuesday in White Plains, N.Y.

I was uprgraded to an individual room and it was extremely nice. Room and bathroom were extremely clean. Was nice to have control of the A/C for as long/when I wanted. Situated right in Danshui center - accessible to everything
William E. on 17 October 2013
This spot is Cool and Alex is a character - if you&'re lucky enough to meet him. There is actually a sea/river view but don&'t expect a beach in Tumsui and don&'t use the back garden entrance from the lane close to the rail line. Use the front, primary street entrance.
Customer Review on 27 September 2013
Alex was really warm and friendly and helpful and definitely made us really feel welcome. We stayed in two different rooms. The first one was a really basic double. Might not be for everyone, but we liked it. It was clean, the shower was nice and warm and most importantly, it was extremely quiet. The second room was a lot different. Balcony, much much more setting and much more furniture. A little bit much more noisy because of the train but hey, you&'re nonetheless in a hostel. So with earplugs it was nice and quiet!
Ai Heok K. on 26 August 2013
Atmosphere. Extremely homely. The owner Alex is extremely warm and friendly n helpful. He helped me with my problems. Andy n xiao pang also extremely friendly. I enjoy this hostel the moment I stepped in. I would definitely come back again if I coming to Taiwan.
William F. on 4 August 2013
Great location just a short walk from the MRT. The staff is friendly and willing to help you plan your stay in Taipei/Tamsui. The beds were comfortable along with the bathroom was clean.
Customer Review on 6 July 2013
Staff friendliness - Even in case you didn&'t know any Chinese, Andy was extremely animated, helpful and kind.
Beng Hock O. on 20 May 2013
Close to MRT/bus station, stores and night market. There is a lounge to watch TV, drink and relax especially soon after a long day out. It is a bit noisy when the MRT train passes by but really did not bother me as the train service ends at midnight. Warm and friendly and helpful staff. Will be back again !
Customer Review on 22 February 2013
The hostel is very near to Tamshui station and not so difficult to find. The staff are really nice and helpful.
Bettina R. on 15 February 2013
The employees made it. Alex && Andy were welcoming, friendly and helpful all of the way. Alex even invited us to his mom&'s house for a traditional Taiwanese New Year celebration. It was amazing.

Have Financial Markets Become More Informative?Jennie BaiGeorgetown University - Department of Finance Thomas PhilipponNew York University (NYU) - Department of Finance; National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) Alexi SavovNew York University (NYU) - Department of Finance August 22, 2013 Abstract: The finance industry has grown. Financial markets have become more liquid. Information technology has been revolutionized. Have market prices become more informative? We use stock and bond prices to forecast earnings and find that the information content of market prices has not increased since 1960. We use a model with information acquisition and investment to link financial development, price informativeness, and investment. As information costs fall, the predictable component of future earnings should rise and hence improve capital allocation and enhance welfare. We find that this component has remained stable in the data. Our model also allows us to decompose price informativeness into two components, one produced in markets, the other reflected by markets. Both are unchanged. Prices have become stronger predictors of R&D investment, but this has not translated into stronger earnings predictability.

A day with Shel & Rick
Last Saturday Shel Israel & Rick Segal where in Belgium and we had the chance to spend the day with them. The fact that we could have this meeting is for me one of the best results of blogging so far.
Back in the beginning of August I wrote about 'Naked Conversations' and Shel, who obviously is very much in the conversation, commented on that the day after. In the same week, Shel also announced his plan to do a world tour with Rick. I thought of this as a opportunity and sent an email to Shel asking whether they were interesting in traveling to Brussels as well to meet up with a few people and Shel & Rick immediately said yes. So we started planning for it as well. Originally this was supposed to happen at the beginning of September, but badly enough it had to be canceled/delayed. By mid September, the new dates were set and Brussels was on the schedule for October 21st.
So Simon McDermott (who had also been in contact with them) and I looked at what the most interesting agenda could be and we decided to do a dinner with bloggers and a roundtable with agency bloggers/strategists. The dinner to take place in a restaurant called Belga Queen and the roundtable at the H2O Towers. Since I travel quite a lot myself, but hardly ever see something of the cities that I'm in, I also proposed Shel & Rick to start a bit earlier so we could have a quick walk around the center of Brussels. I'm not a big fan of Brussels, but the "Grand Place" is definitely amongst the most beautiful in Europe.
(c) Pieter Baert
It turned out to be a very interesting day and I couldn't thank them enough for this opportunity. We had a good dinner with Pietel, Ine, Peter, Luc, François, Damien, Jean Philip, Veerle, Bea, David, Geert, Tom, Coolz0r, Simon with our guests. And also the roundtable generated a really good conversation with Bert, Philip, Olivier, Evert-Jan, Tom, Tanguy, Peter and David, Geert & Simon again as well. I enjoyed the day, hope all the others did as well. Here is some coverage of the day (I'll update when needed):

- detender@media (NL)
- Bert Van Wassenhove (ENG)

- Attentio (ENG) (update 24/10)
- These Days (update 25/10)
Or check out the Flickr sets of some of the guests:
So that wraps it up. Thanks to everybody for being there and to the others: the conversation is already going on, also for your brand, so you'd better join ;-)

Sounds interesting!
Thanks so much for making this happen. It was a very special and valuable day for both Rick and me.
[...] Ce samedi après-midi, j'ai eu la chance de participer à une rencontre avec Shel Israel (co-auteur avec Robert Scoble du best-seller Naked Conversations) et Rick Segal qui effectuent actuellement un tour en Europe. Discussion très instructive sur la valeur des blogs en entreprise, Second Life, David Cameron… Je n'ai malheureusement pu rester jusqu'à la fin (j'avais déjà prévu d'assister le soir au concert de Bénabar où je n'étais visiblement pas le seul blogger dans la salle) mais Evert-Jan de Duval Guillaume E a filmé l'ensemble de l'entretien. On trouve aussi un post sur le blog de Bert et un billet de Tom sur Digimedia. Merci à Geert et Kris de MSN Belgique pour l'invitation. [...]
[...] Kris wrote a nice summary of the day we organized together with Shel and Rick: Link to A day with Shel & Rick « 'Cross The Breeze . [...]
[...] It was the most interesting professional gatherings I've participated to… the credits go to Kris and Geert [...]

Hackers have apparently broken into at least two of North Korea's government-run online sites, as tensions rose on the Korean Peninsula.
The North's Uriminzokkiri Twitter and Flickr accounts stopped sending out content typical of that posted by the regime in Pyongyang, such as photos of North's leader Kim Jong Un meeting with military officials.
Instead, a picture posted on the North's Flickr site shows Kim's face with a pig-like snout and a drawing of Mickey Mouse on his chest. Underneath, the text reads: "Threatening world peace with ICBMs and Nuclear weapons/Wasting money while his people starve to death."
Another posting says "We are Anonymous" in white letters against a black background.
Anonymous is a name of a hacker activist group.
A statement purporting to come from the attackers and widely circulated online said that they had compromised 15,000 user records hosted on Uriminzokkiri.com and other websites.

Residents of Moribaya, Yealie Boyah and its environs in the Kambia district have commended the Safer Future Youth Development Organization (SFYDO), for the installation of solar submersible pump for the supply of safe drinking water at Moribaya.
The NGO has its headquarters at Allen Town and runs a vocational institute that trains youth in catering, tailoring, gara- tie- dying among others and also a Secondary School.
The intervention of (SFYDO), in the Kambia District in particular, has contributed to the control of cholera which has become a deadly pandemic in that part of the country for the past few weeks.
Pa Alimamy Sesay of Moribaya on behalf of his people acclaimed safer Future for its efforts to control the outbreak of cholera, noting, "with the installation of solar submersible pump in Moribaya as the main water source for most of the island towns and villages of the surroundings, Safer Future has immensely contributed to saving lives."
Idriss Kamara, SFYDO Executive Director said he was impressed with the amount of appreciations received from residents and stated that although some of their building materials were stolen at Petifu Lokomassa Junction recently, they would still not relent in rendering their assistance to the people.
He further revealed that the aim of the organization is to improve the lives of the marginalized and deprived youths by providing free education in different technical and vocational skills. The Organization he said, also strives to develop and maintain infrastructure in rural and remote areas, providing life skills training in secluded communities and water sanitation by introducing the rain water harvest systems, construction and repairing of water wells.
"Safer Future has undertaken several other projects nationwide in line with its mission statement and has also transformed several youths in technical and vocational training," I. D. Kamara noted.
According to Idriss Kamara aka ID, the doors of the SLMB School which were stolen have been fixed at the School with the three suspects referred to the Lungi Police Station on Thursday 15th June, 2012 for investigation.
SFYDO was rubbed be thieves between 28th and 29th May, 2012 of its construction materials including, four steel doors, one set water well lining molds among others at its stores at the Sierra Leone Muslim Brotherhood (SLMB) Primary School, in Petifu Lokomasama Junction, Lokomasama Chiefdom Port Loko District.
The matter was reported to the Petifu Lokomassama Junction police station and investigation I still being conducted. Three suspects have since been arrested with exhibits consisting of the water well lining molds at Matein, few miles from Petifu Lokomassama Junction.
SEFDO has also been applauded by youth within the Allen Town community for its tremendous efforts in transforming their lives.
"Safer has contributed immensely to the development of youth and the country with its skills technical and vocational trainings and it also has transformed several communities nationwide with its developmental projects," Mohamed Mansaray a beneficiary stated.

Maps of Florida are an vital part of ancestors and family history research, notably in the event you live faraway from where your ancestor resided. Because Florida political boundaries often changed, historic maps tend to be significant in helping you find out the precise location of your ancestor's home, what land they owned, just who his or her neighbors had been, and a lot more.
Maps of Florida often have a tendency to be an outstanding reference for starting out with your own research, simply because they provide you with substantially useful information and facts immediately. Florida Maps can be a major resource of important amounts of details on family history.
States bordering Florida are Georgia and Alabama. Florida's 10 largest cities are Jacksonville, Miami, Tampa, St. Petersburg, Orlando, Hialeah, Tallahassee, Fort Lauderdale, Port Saint Lucie and Pembroke Pines.

@Ethne Hedren Denham @chickieD I think scentsy may make a teapot warmer if your into that kind of thing
@Truffles8761 are you a man? because I seriously want to marry you. But I like dicks
We have also had really warm weather. But there is a cold front coming through so it rained a lot today and then the temeperature dropped from like 71 to 27. Not kidding.
i went to a thanksgiving dinner and some asshole put potted meat in the deviled eggs...that should be criminal
i do the lick thing too
Try the glue blackhead remover.
you coud just like bend over. like lower your body instead of raising your legs and save 35 bucks for what is essentially a footrest for while you shit.
Or one time i read that if you're constipated you should squat. Just make sure not to slip bc you'll fall in the toilet. And be prepared for the splash.
how much did you get paid to babysit that drink
@tyntiff2012 I cant speak fpr the vaseline lol but if you know the purpose of the silica packets then it would seem a logical train of thought to go from that to putting it in a pumpkin. [they suck up moisture so they keep moisture from being excessive]
they look like penises sort of. penises in which the circumcision didnt go so well.
one time shortly after my son was born I put some of his bottles and shit in a pot to boil to sterilize. Well everyone was uber tired apparently because we all fell asleep and woke up to a house full of smoke and burned plastic smell. All the water had boiled down and all the plastic was melted. THAT was a ruined piece of cookware.
I made these last year. The ones i successfully removed did look like the ones in the picture, but a lot of them broke. And I had really sore fingers from squeezing them out. And they tasted like shit.
Trap her, Keep her >=] muahahahaha
omg I knew you were gonna say something about that. You know, I pretty much just buy my husband frozen pizzas so he can make his own dang dinner. I'd rather make money than dinner.
@TrystanTerrell @Craftpocalypse @aMUSEme8 when i was a kid my mom totally had a pot bellied pig for a pet who loved peppermints.
@JulieHaywardBrantley originally looking at the picture I didnt chuckle. I read your comment though and scrolled back up and then died...

[quote:YOUCITY 18850702:MV8xNzU0NTQ3XzM0MDE1OTE1XzE3NTNCRDM0] This was taken from an article in St.louis Magazine titled [b]The Tunning Fork of St.Louis [/b] http://www.stlmag.com/St-Louis-Magazine/December-2006/The-Tuning-Fork-of-St-Louis/ [i]But more than these, the [b]St. Louis Arch is suggestive of an immense tuning fork. I[/b] am not the first to think of the Arch this way.[b] I have heard rumors of a 1960s Marvel Comics book, of unknown title, in which the Gateway Arch is used as a tuning fork to defeat an "arch" enemy of humanity[/b]. More recently, Barbara Aho, an American white-supremacist member of the John Birch Society and follower of the neo-gnostic Ruckmanite cult, believes that the Arch is a latent but deadly tuning fork. Aho, who channels Old Testament prophets and looks much like a cross between a blond Demi Moore and a thin, furious Martha Stewart, believes without affectation that an Armageddonlike disaster will befall the Midwest once a plane, meteorite, or some other large, fast-moving object collides with the Arch. She feels that the impact will cause it to vibrate, sending disruptive vibrations into the bedrock beneath the Mississippi, triggering an earthquake so ponderous, so comprehensive, that it will not only level St. Louis but also alter the ancient courses of both the Missouri and the Mississippi, flooding vast areas of the lower United States and signaling the imminence of the Apocalypse.[/i] [i] Eero Saarinen, the Finnish-American architect [b]who designed the Gateway Arch but never saw its completion, said that a well-designed object should resonate with its "next largest context—a chair in a room, a room in a house, a house in an environment, environment in a city plan[/b]." What Saarinen did not say, but what would surely have seemed obvious to him, is that [b]an object must also resonate with its smaller context: a big object, especially an imposing one, must in some way be attuned to smaller objects[/b]. If big things did not recall to us little things, they would scare us to the core. [b]There are some objects clearly massive (such as the moon) that are not threatening at all[/b]. The moon is almost the epitome of a large, benign object. It reflects. It hangs. It floats. It moves languorously and changes its shadow just enough not to become boring. It is respectable, and if it is not entertaining, it is neither malign nor sublime. [b]There is no danger in the moon, though the potential energy[/b] it holds above us in the powerful slinging of its orbit is enough to kill all life and thrust us back to beetles[b]. In short, its sublimity and potential terror are mitigated by its resemblance to a cue ball. So if there were a large thing fixed purposefully above a city, especially one 630 feet tall, whose effect was only to suggest something truly large, it would be conceptually and emotionally intolerable; it would be, in fact, a sublime horror[/b]. [b]Such an object would be fearsome. Saarinen knew this, and this is the secret to the Arch: It is in fact a little object made to look very large. It is a tuning fork, a pair of tweezers, a staple, a paperclip, or some variant on a small silver object likely to be found in a general's desk[/i]. [/b] [i]By this I mean that the Arch, though it is physically huge, is metaphysically small. This is true despite its symbolism of expansion. It is really a contraction arch. People who are confused about the size of the universe, such as Barbara Aho, fear the Arch because they think it too large. The Arch is in fact small. I have flown over it on my computer, using Google Earth. For someone not native to St. Louis, the Arch is difficult to find with the use of Google Earth. But from 10 miles up, if one looks for the little sphincter of Busch Stadium, beside the pixelated gray water of the river, one can clearly see the Arch next to the sphincter. One spies at first not the silver of the monument itself, not the smooth beveled steel (which, in the satellite photograph, looks like a flattened staple); instead, one sees the dark stirrup of its shadow cast over the kelly green of the memorial's lawn—and the earth becomes a little horse below us that we can ride[/i].

Original Message
I'm not saying that the city that i was born in & lived in for my whole life is the center of the universe but the more that I uncover the more I begin to wonder. Id like to start this thread by talking about all of the strange and important facts or "conincedences" that I have found pertaining to St.Louis but there are other places suppounding St.louis such as southern IL, the NW Arkansas Ozarks region , and the NW Missouri Ozarks region, I would like to say that ever since I started instigating and researching my hometown & surroundings , I have wanted to & even encouraged others to do the same with their surroundings. I believe some people if not everyome live and or born in paticular places for a reason. I think most people would be suprised to find out the history and current events of their surroundings other than being dependent on the local or national media. So I mentioned some places other than St.Louis but they are are surrounding St.louis and I would eventually like to include facts and stories about the places I mentioned earlier as well.
Not everything I mention here will make sense to everyone but hopefully if just one person begins to thinks, if indeed their is any truth involved in anything i provide , then I will be more than happy. So at the risk of being ridiculed , nothing new, I will Probobly share some pretty weird theories and connections , which may or may not be Coincedences. For the record I do not believe in Coincedence but with everything their is an exception to almost every rule and someti.
I have more than a few theories and recently things have begun to happen more and more and it also seems like things are starting to fall into place with more and more dots starting to be connected. I'm not sure when or where I'm gonna start so if your curious and want to check out the thread then I would suggest that you just bookmark this or bump it and check it every so often. I'm in the middle of other things at the moment but I hope to get something started on here tomorrow. Thanks

Selling on eBay Complaint - There is no SELLER protection, Ebay always sides with BUYERS!
Review by
Comments (5)
I have been on eBay since 2006 with 100% positive feedback. Until recently I started selling things for someone, and with the way this person has asked me to ship them, a couple have broken in transit. One particular buyer sent me a message saying that his figure was broken. So I sent him a reply attempting to follow eBay policy (or so I thought) saying I would send him a refund if he would send the item back. So then he says, if that is the best you can do it will reflect in your feedback. So this I thought was feedback extortion- one of ebays "policys" saying that a buyer cannot threaten feedback if you don't do something a certain way. So I sent him a message saying if you have nothing further to say then I will send your refund. Next thing I know, I have negative feedback which drops me down to 98.4% I tried opening a case on feedback extortion telling them what happened and they excused the buyer from the case. I then tried sending the buyer a feedback revision request and he refused. So I called eBay and told them this situation to a woman who just said "uh huh, uh huh, uh huh" to everything I said and didn't listen, and she said "unfortunately we cannot take this feedback off. And basically sided with the buyer saying he didn't want to change the feedback because of mistrust, and kept trying to tell me stuff I could do now that I had already done (Hence the not listening part). Ebay does NOTHING to help the sellers and ALWAYS sides with buyers in every case. I finally sent the buyers money back anyway and when he called eBay to get them to try to change the feedback, they told him that he shouldn't still be trying to help me and that he shouldn't feel bad about anything... REALLY Ebay? They should be helping out the sellers because we are the ones who LIST the items for people to buy. Without the sellers they would be nothing. Amazon.com is the way to go. Avoid eBay at all costs!

I would venture to say, that if you search, you will find a myriad of posts here that claim Ebay always takes the side of the Seller. Just Saying.
Posted by Old Timer on 2011-10-04:
eBay is run by a bunch of idiots now. Their 15 minutes of fame is long gone. As they lose more and more business they just raise their fee's and rip off the sellers for more cash. The buyers know they can screw over the sellers now with little the sellers can do but take it.
I for one will never sell anything or spend a dime on eBay again.

I hardly sell on ebay anymore. You basically face extortion from the buyer if you don't do things their way.
And just like the OP says Ebay always goes along with the buyer not much protections for the seller. But they sure don't mind collecting those fees.
Posted by Bummed. on 2013-10-09:
They don't go by their own policies too. They always side on for the buyer even when they use feedback extortion and harassing emails. My feedback went to a 97.4 too. I will not sell either - even as a part time seller. eBay stinks.

I can wait for 10+ minutes without one person joining my race, I do Auto invite and play and have matchmaking "Open" and still no luck.

What's really to be afraid of? Unless you're a plotting terrorist, there's nothing to be afraid of. It's not like they're taking all of your private (and most certainly boring) information and using it for their own devious purposes. Our government doesn't have the time or money to listen in to your personal conversations about things that are not important to anyone, let alone terrorism.
[–]kinetophone 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Let's say you blog well about big brother's absurdities- so you get on a list. One day, taking the family on vacation- you innocently purchase a light timer for the house and propane for the grill. Could you could be held indefinitely as a potential terrorist? Not to overlook the costs involved vs ROI.

One day the government says something totally absurd(think of something that would bother you if they did, for me im upset over the NDAA) so suddenly you start voicing you concerns and objections. You want to find people just like you who oppose it and want it gone from your life, now you have landed yourself on a watchlist. This watchlist monitors your everyday activities and if you get too influential, its time to destroy you it will as simple as pressing a button. The government is supposed to represent the desires of the people, not the desires of the government.

This is not, to be sure, a movie as good as those two wonderful titles. But it's plenty good, and it has the same buried theme: Anything a guy can do, a girl can do, too. It stars Stewart as Maddy Phillips, an athletic young girl whose father Tom (Sam Robards) once climbed Mount Everest. He had a nasty fall on the way down, which is why he discourages Maddy from climbing, while her mother Molly (Jennifer Beals) forbids it. But as the movie opens, she's scaling the local water tower.
Maddy has two best friends. Austin (Corbin Bleu) is a computer geek. Gus (Max Thieriot) is a mechanic at the go-cart track operated by her father. They both have crushes on her, although at one point, when she's hanging in danger high in the air during the heist, Gus complains that he never even got a chance to kiss her once.
A crisis comes into her life with all the melodrama of a silent movie. One night while her dad and mom are dancing in the living room, he falls to the floor and says, "I can't feel my legs!" It's paralysis -- whether from the neck or waist down, we don't learn, but in any event the condition is incurable, except for an experimental procedure offered in Europe; it costs $250,000 the family doesn't have.
Common sense at this point steps in and suggests that if such an operation really existed, Christopher Reeve would already be on site with a charity to help the Toms of the world, but no: Molly the mother is turned down for a loan at the bank where she has installed the security system. The bank president, named Brisbane (Michael Des Barres), is a teeth-gnashing, scenery-chewing villain whose origins go back even before silent films -- back to Horatio Alger, if anybody remembers who that was. Been a while since we've had a banker this evil in the movies.
So the kids take things into their own hands. With Maddy's climbing skills, Austin to hack into the bank's security system and Gus to devise mechanical devices and the getaway, they'll break into the bank vault and steal the $250,000. This is not so easy, since the vault is suspended in mid-air, is surrounded by motion detectors, protected by savage Rotweilers, etc.
The movie is a remake of a Danish film, unseen by me, named "Klatretosen," which was hailed at the Berlin Film Festival. This version, directed by Bart Freundlich and sporting five writing credits, is well-made, straightforward and entertaining. It doesn't bog down in a lot of cute kid stuff but gets on with telling the story, and has some unexpected touches.
For example, the getaway scene with the kids in go-carts. Yes, and the police chase them, shouting on loudspeakers: "You kids in the go-carts! Pull over! You're leaving the scene of a crime." Sure, because any cop seeing kids on a city street in go-carts is instinctively going to link them to a bank robbery.
Stewart is at the center of the movie, stalwart and sure. You may remember her as Jodie Foster's daughter in a more harrowing thriller, "Panic Room" (2002). Corbin Bleu and Max Thieriot, as her two pals, are just plain likable, and the attraction between Bleu and Stewart may be the screen's first example of interracial puppy-love. For that matter, Jennifer Beals is cast as a possibly mixed race mother, and I would not bother to make this point, except to observe that all of a sudden racial categories are evaporating in mainstream movies, and for the first time in history, actors are being cast because they're right for a role, not because they passed an identity check.
"Catch That Kid" doesn't have the flash of "Spy Kids," but it's solid entertainment -- better than "Agent Cody Banks." Faithful readers know that my definition of a good family film is one the parents can enjoy, and you know what? In the middle of the heist scene, we're just about as involved as if the movie starred George Clooney and Julia Roberts. A heist is a heist, and a good one works no matter what.

Kabul fever ahead of Afghan-Pakistan clash
An Afghan security guard keeps watch as Pakistan football players train at the Afghanistan Football Federation (AFF) stadium in Kabul on August 19, 2013. Football fans in Afghanistan on Tuesday eagerly awaited the country's first home international in ten years, with their team set to take on neighbouring arch-rivals Pakistan in Kabul.
The "friendship match" at the Afghanistan Football Federation (AFF) stadium has ignited fierce patriotic fervour on both sides of the border and is likely to attract huge television audiences.
Long lines of fans queued for last-minute tickets at the 6,000-seater ground, which looked set for a sell-out crowd keen to witness a rare sporting highlight in a country beset for decades by war, poverty and Islamist extremism.
Afghanistan, ranked 139th in the world, last played at home in 2003 in a clash against Turkmenistan and have not played Pakistan, ranked 167th, in Kabul since 1977.
Local fans will be desperate for a morale-boosting home victory in the friendly, but players and coaches on both sides emphasised that the game was a chance to demonstrate a common love of sport.
"The main goal of this game is to build good relations between Afghanistan and Pakistan," Afghan coach Yousuf Kargar told reporters. "Winning or losing is not important for us."
Kargar dismissed fears that the game could be targeted by militants, saying "the security is what the government will take care of. We will focus on hospitality".
But he admitted his squad, eight of whom are based abroad, face a tough test when the match kicks off at 4:00 pm (1130 GMT).
"Ours is a very young team, and we never had the facilities that other neighbouring countries' teams have had. We have very little experience in football compared to the Pakistani team."
Pakistan captain Samar Ishaq said he was honoured to be part of the historic match and that his team was improving.
"We will feel the shortage of our foreign-based players, but we have put a lot of effort in over the past two years to make a good team.
"I'm feeling great to be in Afghanistan for the first time, and am very pleased."
Tickets cost between 100 and 300 Afghanis ($2 and $5) for the game, which will be played on an artificial pitch funded by the FIFA world body.
Political ties are badly strained between Afghanistan and Pakistan, which blame each other for violence plaguing both countries, with many in Afghanistan convinced that Pakistan pulls the strings behind the 12-year Taliban insurgency.
"I am sure Afghanistan will win, and hope this victory will be a response to Pakistan's interference in Afghanistan," said Mohammad Ali, 20, as he picked up tickets. "We need to win."
Football was not banned under the Taliban but the old Ghazi stadium in Kabul was a notorious venue for executions, stonings and mutilations.
Tuesday's game -- at the separate AFF ground in the city -- will be followed on Thursday by the start of the second season of the eight-team Afghan Premier League.

TVJ'S All Angles team cops Fair Play Award
BY KARYL WALKER Editor -- Crime/Court Desk email@example.com
Thursday, September 26, 2013
THE Television Jamaica's All Angles team on Tuesday won the Jamaica Broilers Fair Play Awards with their entry entitled 'The Bleaching Phenomenon' at a ceremony at the Terra Nova All-Suite Hotel in St Andrew .
The All Angles team of Dionne Jackson-Miller, Archibald Gordon, Ivan Shaw, Glenford Campbell, Andre Jebbinson, Walford Gibbinson and Shakur Brown collected the trophy and a cash prize of $300,000 -- the highest payout in the 13-year history of the competition.
The audio-visual entry took an in-depth look into skin bleaching and its social effects. One judge described the entry as an honest view- point, while another described it as an excellent journalistic treatment of a troubling topic.
There were 26 entries in total from across the print, television and radio media landscape. These included 13 entries from print, seven from television and six from radio.
Apart from increasing the cash prize, the organiser decided that all entries would be judged in one category, a shift from previous year's when print and electronic entries were treated as separate categories.
Chief judge Professor Hopeton Dunn lauded the quality of this year's entries. "It was particularly challenging. The overwhelming majority tackled human interest issues. There were noticeably few entries in the area of industry, business and commerce," he said.
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Jamaica Broilers Group Christopher Levy urged media practitioners to remain steadfast in informing and educating the public. "The role that the media are playing in this country has become more and more relevant and important. Do not lose sight of the fact that you have a greater responsibility," he said.
A plaque in honour of the late Christine Bell, who played a fundamental role in organising the awards, was presented to the Gleaner for winning the most awards.
