Cillian Murphy Movies
A soft-spoken, fair-skinned actor with startling blue eyes, a penchant for playing volatile characters, and a reluctance to forsake his critically lauded stage career for a life in film, American audiences may best know Irish actor
Cillian Murphy
as the bike courier making his way through infected London in director
Danny Boyle
's apocalyptic thriller
28 Days Later
. Though the film may have been
's first to find wide stateside exposure, he has been appearing onscreen in the U.K. and his native Ireland since 1997. Born in Douglas, Cork, Ireland, in 1974,
's father was a school inspector and his mother a French teacher. Attending school at Presentation Brothers College Cork while intending to enter into a career in law,
was an avid rugby player who was turned on to the Concordia Theater's unique stage productions in his fourth year.
soon signed up for a workshop with Concordia's
Pat Tiernan
and it quickly became apparent that he had a natural flair for the stage. Soon cast as the wildly emotional Pig in Concordia's production of Disco Pigs,
debuted to rave reviews and was soon skipping school to go on tour with the production. Though his acting had initially begun as a hobby and a way to kill time on the weekends, it was quickly taking over his life and a career in law seemed less and less appealing. Though he would attempt to continue his law studies, it was soon obvious to
that his heart just wasn't in it.
Subsequently cast in a series of interesting and complex roles,
made his feature debut in the 1998 film
Sweety Barrett
and quickly followed with the coming-of-age comedy drama
. Though it was obvious that his stage talents translated well to the silver screen,
still maintained that the rush of theater couldn't be touched by celluloid. The problem in Ireland of suicide and poor mental health among young men prompted
to accept a role in the 2000 drama
On the Edge
, and his role of a suicidal psychiatric patient proved memorable and affecting. Following
How Harry Became a Tree
(2001), it was time to adapt
Disco Pigs
into a feature film, and with director
Kirsten Sheridan
at the helm,
reprised his role of Pig to enthusiastic results. By the time
28 Days Later
rolled around, it seemed that everyone except United States audiences were familiar with the rising star, and with the stateside release of the film in mid 2003, all that was soon to change. Noting that, in his opinion, the best actors alternate frequently between stage and screen,
strived to keep a balance as his growing popularity found his film career taking precedence. Following 2003's Zonad,
began preparation for such features as
Girl With a Pearl Earring
(both 2003).
's resumé amassed higher and higher profile roles. 2005 brought his most popular film to date as he played the villain opposite hero
Christian Bale
Batman Begins
's "boy next door" face seemed to make his performance as the menacing Scarecrow all the more disturbing, and he would go on to play the bad guy again later that same year in
Red Eye
, though this time he wore makeup to cover his boyish features. Soon he was donning even more makeup, however, as a transsexual in the indie hit
Breakfast on Pluto
. Playing both a victim and a hero in the U.K. of the 1970s,
's ethereal performance as a boy who leaves his Ireland home to live as a woman in London was praised by critics, and the film was a cult success. He followed it up with another passion project in 2006:
Ken Loach
's award-winning
The Wind That Shakes the Barley
, a look at the Irish Republicans of the early 20th century and the anti-British rebellion that would continue to tear families apart for decades to come. He next signed on to star with

With this unusual, way-offbeat documentary, Joel Conroy offers an unique take on a familiar subject: the film examines the Irish origins of the west coast surfing culture. Conroy filters this history through the tragic life of George Freeth - an Irish transplant who turned early 20th century Hawaiian kings onto surfing, and thus resurrected a long-buried pastime that eventually spread to the masses. The film immediately delves into Freeth's tale, then travels around the world charting his influences across numerous cultural boundaries - from Hawaii, to sunny Southern California, to the "mother country" of Ireland. The film culminates with the makers' decision to take on-camera rides on colossal, 50-foot waves just off of the Irish coast. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

A film freak has his life turned upside down when he starts dating a real-life femme fatale in this comedy. Neil (Cillian Murphy) is a dyed-in-the-wool movie fan who runs a video store, "Gumshoe Video," specializing in classic film noir and offbeat cult items. Neil spends nearly every evening on the couch, soaking up classic movies from the blue glow of his television; Neil's lack of a social life has not been good for his relationships with women, and his latest girlfriend walked out on him after he declared he wanted her to be more like Katharine Ross in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. But then Neil meets Violet (Lucy Liu), a sexy and adventurous woman who is immediately taken with him. However, Neil soon decides Violet may be a bit
adventurous -- while he's content to get his excitement from watching movies, she would rather throw herself into thrilling situations rather than observe them from a distance, and her appetite for danger proves to be far more than he bargained for. Watching the Detectives was the first directorial effort from Paul Soter, who as a member of the Broken Lizard comedy troupe helped write the films Super Troopers and Beerfest. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Two brothers are caught on differing sides of the battle for Irish freedom in this politically minded historical drama from veteran British filmmaker Ken Loach. It's 1920, and Damien O'Donovan (Cillian Murphy) has recently graduated from medical school. Damien plans to leave the small village in Ireland where he was born to take a job in London, much to the annoyance of his brother Teddy (Padraic Delaney), who is an Irish loyalist and wants to see the British stripped of their rule of his land. While visiting Peggy (Mary Riordan), a longtime friend of the family, Damien and Teddy witness a visit by "Black and Tans," British soldiers who supposedly keep the peace in Ireland; the soldiers turn violent and murder Michaeil (Lawrence Barry), Peggy's grandson, when they discover he only speaks Gaelic. Damien is radicalized by the event, and with Teddy joins the local chapter of the Irish Republican Army, who use violence to drive British troops out of the country. While the IRA is a poor and ill-equipped fighting force, their willingness to give their lives for their cause is taken very seriously by the British, who step up their reprisals against the locals; the Black and Tans even begin directing their violence and torture against women and children, including Damien's girlfriend, Sinead (Orla Fitzgerald). In 1921, Britain attempts to end the violence in Ireland by creating the Irish Free State, a compromise government which will give the Irish greater autonomy while Great Britain still retains final political control of the nation. Teddy sees this as a victory and believes it's an important first step to a truly free Ireland, but Damien sees the IRA's goal as nothing short of complete independence, and the brothers and allies soon become rivals in a battle neither side can win. The Wind That Shakes the Barley received the Golden Palm award as Best Picture at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A friendship between two young people grows into a dangerous obsession in this drama based on the acclaimed stage play by Enda Walsh. Darren (Cillian Murphy) and Sinead (Elaine Cassidy) were born moments apart in the same hospital in a small Irish community. Nicknamed "Pig" and "Runt," Darren and Sinead grew up next door to each other and became inseparable friends while they were still toddlers; at the age of 16, their bond is even stronger than ever. However, Darren and Sinead also have a fondness for making trouble, and over the years Darren has developed a taste for violence; one of his favorite pranks is to have Sinead flirt with a man at the local disco, and then storm up, posing as her jealous boyfriend, and start a fight. Several people in town feel there's something not entirely healthy about Darren and Sinead's relationship, and Sinead's parents are persuaded to send her away to a school in the northern part of Ireland. Darren's attachment to Sinead grows only more intense in her absence, and in time he runs away to find Sinead and bring her back, only to discover she's made a new best friend, Mags (Tara Lynne O'Neill). Disco Pigs was the first feature from Kirsten Sheridan, whose father is veteran filmmaker Jim Sheridan. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The Way We Live Now

The six-part British miniseries The Way We Live Now was adapted from the satirical 1875 novel by Anthony Trollope. The central character was Augustus Melmotte (David Suchet), a mysterious international financier of questionable parentage. Invading the uppermost circles of Victorian society, Melmotte inveigled a considerable number of prominent Londoners in a spectacular get-rich-quick scheme. Among those involved were the Carburys, an aristocratic but cash-poor family anxious to recoup their fortunes by whatever means necessary. Details essential to the plot include the somewhat one-sided romance between Melmotte's rebellious daughter Marie (Shirley Henderson) and caddish Sir Felix Cadbury (Matthew MacFadyen), the exploits of an American adventuress (Miranda Otto) with a predilection for shooting her lovers, and a high-born author of trashy romance novels. Though written in the late 19th century, the story line had a queasily contemporary significance to those burned by such financial peccadillos as the Enron scandal in the early 21st century. Originally telecast by the BBC beginning November 11, 2001, The Way We Live Now was shown in America (as a four-parter) on PBS' Masterpiece Theatre starting April 1, 2002. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A group of Irish college students are about to leave for the United States, where they've landed summer jobs in Long Island, when a slightly shady friend of one of the gang, Davin (Cillian Murphy), decides to tag along as a quick way out of a doomed romance. While the students all have jobs and working papers lined up, Davin is an illegal alien in the States. But he leads a charmed life, and manages to get by quite nicely, even finding an American sweetheart, a cab dispatcher named Aideen (Paloma Baeza). Robert (Barry Ward), meanwhile, gets more from his job than he expected when he serves as a houseboy for a well-to-do artist named Carolyn (Ingeborga Dapkunaite). The rest of the group works hard in the day and plays even harder at night, as they relish the opportunity to enjoy adult life far from the eyes of their families. Sunburn marked the feature debut for director Nelson Hume; it was produced by Jean Doumanian, who produced a number of films for Woody Allen and briefly produced the TV series Saturday Night Live. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

But things turn sour when a crazed, injured soldier shows up at their door, claiming that a virus is sweeping through a nearby city and is headed their way. With no access to the outside world, there's no way to know if the man is telling the truth, and whether he's motivated by a real plague, by insanity, or by something even darker. ~ Cammila Collar, Rovi

Hippie Hippie Shake
The landmark obscenity trial surrounding a satirical Australian magazine becomes a metaphor for a wild ride through swinging 1960s-era London in director Beeban Kidron's adaptation of Richard Neville's memoir Hippie Hippie Shake: The Dreams, the Trips, the Trials, the Love-ins, the Screw Ups: The Sixties. Cillian Murphy stars as Neville in a film that follows the editors of Oz as they relocate to London and are forced to defend a sexually explicit issue of their irreverent magazine after it raises the eyebrows of the Obscene Publications Squad. The resulting legal battle would become the longest obscenity trial in the history of English law. Though the publishers of Oz were initially sentenced to hard labor, a subsequent appeal would find their sentences commuted under the agreement that they cease publication of the controversial magazine. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

The Jacket director John Maybury adapts playwright Sharman MacDonald's account of the true-life relationships shared between Welsh poet Dylan Thomas; his wife, Caitlin; his lifelong friend Vera Phillips; and her husband, William Killick, in this biographical drama centering on the curious incident in which Thomas found his home turned into a war zone when Phillips and Killick attacked the abode with a machine gun and a grenade. Sienna Miller assumes the role of Dylan's wife, Caitlin, and Keira Knightley joins the cast as the trigger-happy Phillips in a film that not only reunites Knightley with Jacket director Maybury, but takes its cue from the play penned the Pirates of the Caribbean star's mother as well. Lindsay Lohan was originally tapped to play Caitlin, but dropped out due to contractual disagreements. The film also stars Matthew Rhys (Brothers & Sisters) as Thomas and Cillian Murphy as Killick. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

As the sun begins to dim along with humankind's hope for the future, it's up to a desperate crew of eight astronauts to reach the dying star and reignite the fire that will bring life back to planet Earth in this tense psychological sci-fi thriller that re-teams 28 Days Later director Danny Boyle with writer Alex Garland and producer Andrew Macdonald. The skies are darkening, and the outlook for planet Earth is grim. Though the encroaching darkness at first seems unstoppable, scientists have concocted one desperate last-ditch plan to buy the human race a temporary reprieve from the grim future that looms just past the horizon. A crew of eight men and women has been given a nuclear device designed to literally reignite the sun and sent hurtling through infinity on the most crucial space mission ever attempted. Suddenly, as the crew loses radio contact with mission control, everything begins to fall apart. Now, in the farthest reaches of the galaxy, the men and women who may hold the key to ultimate survival find themselves not only struggling for their lives, but their sanity as well. Rose Byrne, Chris Evans, Cillian Murphy, and Michelle Yeoh star in a film that asks audiences just what would become of humankind if the sky suddenly went black. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

An Irish boy becomes an emotional and sexual outcast as the 1960s fade into the 1970s in this period drama from director Neil Jordan. When he was just a baby in the early '60s, Patrick Braden (Conor McEvoy) was abandoned by his mother and left on the doorstep of a church overseen by Father Bernard (Liam Neeson). Placed in a foster home, sensitive Patrick doesn't much care for the emotionally chilly attitude of his new "family," and psychologically buffers himself against the world by writing stories that make fun of Father Bernard and the other authority figures in his life. As he grows into adulthood, Patrick (played as an adult by Cillian Murphy) also discovers that he enjoys dressing in women's clothes and prefers the company of men, and as a teenager he falls into an affair with Billy Hatchet (Gavin Friday), a nightclub performer who also runs guns for the Irish Republican Army. In the early '70s, Patrick -- who has since taken on the drag name "Kitten" -- makes his way to London, where he becomes involved with Bertie (Stephen Rea), a small-time nightclub magician who gives the young man a place to say, a sense of security, and a job as his on-stage assistant. However, Patrick's idyllic life with Bertie proves short-lived when his old friends come to town on IRA "business." Breakfast on Pluto also features a supporting performance from former Roxy Music frontman Bryan Ferry. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

In the suburbs of Dublin, more than a dozen strangers find their paths colliding in sometimes violent, sometimes absurd ways in Intermission, the first feature from director John Crowley. Setting the chain of events in motion is Lehiff (Colin Farrell), a small-time crook whose most recent petty theft has him on the run from Jerry (Colm Meaney), a self-aggrandizing police detective who's even more full of himself now that he's being constantly trailed by a TV news documentary crew. Meanwhile, Lehiff's friend John (Cillian Murphy) is going though a trial breakup -- or "intermission," as he calls it -- with his girlfriend, Deirdre (Kelly Macdonald), who has promptly taken up with the older, more conventionally responsible bank manager Sam (Michael McElhatton). When Lehiff suggests that the answer to all of his and John's troubles is to set up Sam and rob his vaults, John's too eager to comply -- and their plan spells dire consequences for everyone in their immediate circle of relations. Also starring David Wilmot, Brian F. O'Byrne, and Shirley Henderson, Intermission had its premiere at the Galway Film Festival, where it won the Audience Award, and secured berths at the Edinburgh, Telluride, and Toronto festivals. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi

Animal rights activists free a group of infected chimpanzees to horrifying results in this speculative sci-fi horror effort from Trainspotting director Danny Boyle. Waking from a coma in a deserted London hospital 28 days later, bicycle courier Jim (Cillian Murphy) takes to the deserted city streets in a state of mystified confusion. Joining forces with another group of survivors following a terrifying encounter in a seemingly abandoned church, Jim soon learns the truth behind the deserted streets and the menacing creatures that lurk in the shadows. It's soon revealed that the chimpanzees had been harboring a deadly virus that sends its victims into a furious, murderous rage, and in the days following the initial exposure, the entire population was nearly wiped out due to the resulting homicidal rampage. Is there still a glimmer of hope for humanity -- or has the deadly "rage" virus found its way to foreign shores and infected the entire planet? ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

The young Bruce Wayne (Gus Lewis) leads a privileged life as the son of wealthy, philanthropist parents, both of whom stress their commitment to improving the lives of the citizens of crime-ridden Gotham City. After his mother and father are murdered by a mugger, however, Wayne grows into an impudent young man (Christian Bale), full of rage and bent on retribution until encouraged by his childhood sweetheart, Rachel Dawes (Katie Holmes), to search for answers beyond his own personal vendettas. Wayne eventually finds discipline in the Far East under the tutelage of Henri Ducard (Liam Neeson), a member of the mysterious League of Shadows who guides him in the study of martial arts -- and the ways in which an ordinary man can hone his senses to an almost superhuman acuity. After seven years away from Gotham, Wayne returns, determined to bring peace and safety back to the city. With the help of his faithful manservant, Alfred Pennyworth (Michael Caine), and Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman), a scientist at his late father's corporation, Wayne develops a secret identity as Batman, a masked fighter for justice.

The subject of one of Johannes Vermeer's most enduring portraits becomes the focus of this biographical period piece from director Peter Webber. Girl With a Pearl Earring is told from the point of view of Griet (Scarlett Johansson), a teenaged girl who leaves her family's care in the country to become a servant for the Vermeer household in the comparatively bustling, canal-laden burgh of Delft. When she arrives, she finds herself at the low end of the servant totem pole, until she's allowed to clean "the master's" painting quarters. There, she catches the eye of the taciturn, reclusive Vermeer (Colin Firth), and over a period of time, he begins to craft her portrait. Of course, this does little to further his relationship with his jealous, pregnant wife, Catharina (Essie Davis), or with his most vocal benefactor, van Ruijven (Tom Wilkinson), who often dictates what portraits Vermeer should paint. Meanwhile, Griet navigates a sweet, tentative relationship with a peasant boy her age (Cillian Murphy).

THE LION of JUDAH UNVEILED, and the KING OF KINGS by Apollo
The year 10, 500 BC marked the beginning of the Aeons, and the Age of LEO and the Ancient ones in the first age regarded HU as the giver of life. NUT the Sky Goddess in the Egyptian beliefs, revealed her celestial canopy after the Virgo ruled land of MU Lemuria disappeared under the sea along with Atlantis ending the Age of Cancer and Gemini in the flood of Noah 3,000 years BC when the protective sky canopy broke and paradise was lost .
The male rulership of Jehovah was claimed to decree this catastrophic event . It was the age of Taurus in which he chose a group of people to represent him and the age of Aries in which a ram replaced the sacrifice of a cherished Son of Abraham.
It wasn't until the age of Pisces that a Lion of the Tribe of Judah was prophecied to arise to restore the first ancient ways of pacifism to a people accustomed to war. A lion was to lay down with the lamb. A great teacher was to preach peace to the war weary Hebrews under Roman Dominion .
The lion was a mighty animal free to roam in the Lebanon, Hermon and Jordan ranges and the southern Judean wilderness. The mane of the lions hair reminded people of the sun, so fittingly the symbol of the Sun God became the lion and the ruling planet was the sun. A lion cub grew its golden shaggy mane at around three years old. It was around three years of age that a child was visited by three wise men in a country home.
From lead to Gold was the escape and promise from the structures of Saturn to the freedom of exhaltation to whom would bear the light.
"Then one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep! See, the lion of the Tribe of Judah, the Root of David has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals. Revelation 5:5
Let us look back on the history of the formations of the tribes..
Tribe, The Hebrew words representing tribe was "matteh" and "shevet" meaning rod or staff. Exodus 7:12 and Proverbs 13::24 . Cause of the leader of the clan would carry a scepter or staff.
The tribal arrangement of Israel was based on Jacobs twelve sons who had to encamp in the wilderness under their representative zodiac signs.
The Tribe of Levi was the Priestly class under the Sons of Aaron.
The Tribe of Benjamin produced Israels first king, King Saul who was anointed by Samuel. The Tribe of Judah produced King David who slew Goliath. Judah was Jacobs forth son from first wife Leah whom Jacob was tricked into marrying (his heart was tied to her more beautiful sister Rachel) . The Tribe of Judah was described as a lion cub and the prophecies of Judah was pronounced in Genesis 49: 10. "the scepter will not turn aside from Judah, neither the commanders staff from between his feet until Shiloh comes , and to him the obedience of the peoples will belong."
David fulfilled this when King Saul died and David fought to obtain the lands of Israel until he claimed all the Benjamite territory and made Jerusalem the capital and claiming Zion. For 500 years, Judah claimed the Kingship Sceptre and Staff until King Solomon lost favor and his Son Rehoboam lost ten tribes from his Kingdom so Israel was united no more. Benjamin and Judah was the only ones that stayed loyal to the house of David splitting the Kingdom to Israel of the Northern Kingdom and Judah to the South. In 722 BC Assyrian invaders from what is now (Iraq) invade the Northern Israel and Babylon (also what is now Iraq) attacked the nation of Judah in 586 BC and destroying the temple of Solomon. These invasions began the Lost Tribe theories when many of the individuals of the tribes became un accounted for when they had been taken prisoner. Many have intermarried with the invaders bloodline, but others have migrated and scattered.
Restoration for the prisoners of Babylon occurred when King Cyrus of Persia allowed the land of Judah restored. The nation of Judah at least could commence the generations to fulfillment in Ezekials promise
" A ruin, a ruin! I will make it a ruin ! It will not be restored until he comes to whom it rightfully belongs, to him I will give it. Ezekial 21:27
"In that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples : the nations will rally to him and his place of rest will be glorious. In that day the Lord will reach out his hand a second time to reclaim the remnant that is left of his people from Assyria, from Lower Egypt, from upper Egypt , from Cush, Fom Elam, from Babylon, from Hamnath and from the islands of the sea. Isaiah 11:10
… Judahs enemies will be cut off. Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah. Isaiah 11:13
The promise of the Lion was to be fulfilled. The sphinx of prophecy was to become the Capstone the builders rejected.
12 golden lions lined the walkway to the Throne of Solomon in the Porch of the throne that stood on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem. Even Solomon knew that there was to be a man of Gold to arise from one of the 12 tribes of God. LEO, The Lion of Judah.
The Hierosgamos of the Sacred marriage of Sun and Moon occurs with Leo Sun and Cancer Moon. The shining brilliance of the summer sunlight is the golden mane of the Lion of Judah who is crowned as King. The sign of cancer was also known as the sheepfold congregation which hosts the beehive constellation of stars and the two donkeys of Aselus Borealis and Aselus Astralis which was the manger of the Christ child. The moon is the fruitage of Yesod which births the young child Mercurius .
The sign following the Hierogamos and the divine mystery of union and conjunction is the sign of Virgo, the woman and the Mother of God.
This brings to mind the bible verse: Isaiah 7:14, 15 . Therefore Jehovah himself will give you men a sign: Look! The maiden herself will actually become pregnant, and she is giving birth to a son, and she will certainly call his name Immanuel. Butter and honey he will eat by the time that he knows how to reject the bad and choose the good.
Spiritual apotheosis is the nourishment of the material world into connection with the divine. The pomegranates is the blood that the High Priestess nourishes when the ascending spirit passes between the twin pillars . Judgement is given in the scales of Maat, "justice" and the works of equilibrium heals the monad on his return and reunion of the ONE.
In the late summer and fall we have Virgo appearing right before Dawn with the Sun shining around her head as a halo in mid September which is near the Jewish New Year of Rosh Hashanah. She announces the Fall Equinox and the harvest of grain and crops which nourishes our body
In October the sun is moving down her arm to conjunct with Spica every October 16th, In the western zodiac, the suns placement is Libra, but in the skies he shines in virgo and nourishes her sprig of golden wheat which brings to fulfillment this Bible verse in Jerusalem more than two thousand years ago ..
"Also, he took a loaf, gave thanks, broke it, and gave it to them, saying,"This means my body which is to be given in your behalf. Keep doing this in remembrance of me. Also the cup in the same way after they had the evening meal, he saying. "This cup means the new covenant by virtue of my blood, which is to be poured out in your behalf" Luke 22 : 19, 20
Under the sun, the wheat berries have grown to harvest and the stones would grind them into flour for the bread. The sun also ripened the grapes which was to be fermented into wine'
South east of Virgo lies the cup of Christ, the constellation of crater which is the Holy Grail of Bloodlines. We are the children of the Sun, and his bread is our body and his wine is our blood. How fitting it is that the ancient Holy land announces the new year (Rosh Hashanah.. Various dates in September) at harvest time when the Mother rises with the Sun shining as her halo and blending all faiths into the apotheosis monad of ONE

Located at the southern tip of Vancouver Island, this scenic metropolis, also known as the "City of Gardens", is renowned for its sweeping harbor views and British-inspired historic sites. Originally a trading post in 1843, Victoria became the port of entry to the colonies and Vancouver Island during the Gold Rush. Today, the city is home to Canada's western naval base, a major fishing fleet and a growing ship-building industry.
Voted one of the top 10 cities to visit by travel magazine Conde Nasté Traveler, Victoria is known for its regal ambience that can be felt all throughout town. From the narrow city streets which are emblazoned with English-style lamp posts and hanging floral arrangements to the countless boutiques and eateries nestled inside historic Victorian buildings, the city imbues a sense of timelessness to all who visit.

US Subsidies Grease the Skids Into Chaos
US Subsidies Grease the Skids Into Chaos
- Ross Gelbspan's blog
- Log in or register to post comments
off the top of my head (yeah thats what I do)
I'd say it works like this. When oil was cheap, oil company lobbies succceeded in getting gov royalties eliminated - to keep the industry healthy or whatever.
Now that oil and profits are up - a reintroduction of royalties could be done - effectively a tax on the industry - that would inevitably raise prices at the pump and other downstream consumer locations.
Consumer price jumps are not necessarily a bad thing, but the government of the day won't want to see a big jump at the pump. people get testy when that happens.
Uh, oil companies do not get 20 to 40 billion dollars in subsidies. That's just a number made up by a guy called Doug Koplow that doesn't adhere to government rules or accuracy.
You want to talk about subsidies? Let's have a chat about wind power. :)
No. It is a number derived from the value of indirect market protections. And even if one went with just cash amounts of Federal dollars, fossil energy does receive an order of magnitude greater amounts of cash subsidies than non-fossil energy, and that is counting in the cash-money given for Corn-Ethanol boondoggle.
. . . fossil energy does receive an order of magnitude greater amounts of cash subsidies than non-fossil energy . . .
Oil provides a huge proportion of our energy compared to the miniscule amounts provided by wind and solar. As a percentage, subsidies are much lower for the oil industry then wind or solar.
...well two things trump your equivocation of the two.
First is that fossil fuels have been receiveing the their protections and subsides since the early 20th century. With the exception of conventional hydro-electric.
Second is that the high and long term environmental costs to the local and global Commons are not included in those numbers.
It's a tough situation to be in. The administration that is... They received their jobs through lobbyists and voters... now they'd have to sort of bite the hand that fed them by doing the right thing and changing an archaic system? The same "issue" exists with nuclear waste. US is the only country that still burries its waste while others ship it to France to get it recycled - why? Because of an old (WW2 era) passage in the law-books stating that no nuclear tech shall leave the borders (paraphrasing - can google if you like for the details).
Anyway, until the broken system of "special interest groups" is fixed - we'll have a minority running the country. Until the people can see past the spin and special interet group propoganda - we'll have a minority running the country. It's up to the people to make that change - to self educate and elect based on principles that are required for a healthy sustainable country. Until that happens, the majority will appoint people that won't do what they're supposed to do & won't give money where it needs to go...
Just a question:
Why do greenies and lefties hate oil and energy companies so badly.
These companies are responsible for providing millions of jobs world wide and in many cases are the only real economic drivers for whole countries.
Without them of you would be very much poorer.
So why do you hate the hand that feeds you?
Could it be that the socialistic loathing for anything prosperous.
The idea that profit and prosperity are inherently evil?
Or perhaps you just like the idea of confiscating from the hard working and successful and sharing it amongst the lazy.
Either way it is an interesting question, even without the myth of AGW to complicate it.
Didn't you see the George Clooney movie "Syrianna" Gary? I know it's just a movie, but oil companies are evil. They do bad, bad things. They control the world. And did I say they were evil?
The left, and greens, have a tendency to distrust corporations. In particular, they distrust any really successful corporations. Hence, oil companies have to be bad.
When oil was cheap, oil company lobbies succceeded in getting gov royalties eliminated - to keep the industry healthy or whatever.

San Diego County Agriculture – How Sustainable and Resilient are we?5:30 pm – 8:00 pm
Event Summary (from event website):
San Diego's Agriculture industry is both robust and challenged. This $5 billion industry includes extensive flower production, dairy farms, citrus and avocado acreage.San Diego's Mediterranean-like climate is home to more than 6,000 farmers who make their living on 6,565 small family farms, 65% of which are less than nine acres. The high cost of water (more than $600/acre foot) and land make San Diego farming here expensive and encourage growers to raise products with a high dollar value per acre.
In the coming years, climate change and water scarcity challenge this industry. More and more citizens are educated about genetically modified organisms (GM0) and organic growing processes. Farmers markets are popular but what else can be done to increase demand, reduce resource use, and allow us to remain sustainable?
How prepared is San Diego agriculture industry to face these challenges and increased demand?Where San Diego County Ranks Nationally
- 12th largest farm economy among more than 3000 counties
- More small farms (less than 10 acres) than any other county
- #1 producer of avocados
- #1 producer of nursery crops
- #1 in number of part-time farmers
- #2 in acres of guavas, pomegranates, limes, and macadamias
- #2 in farms with women as principal operator
- #3 in honey production
- #5 in lemons
- #9 in strawberries
- #10 in egg-laying hens

SANTA MARIA - The eleven men and women charged in the murder of Anthony Ibarra earlier this year were back in Santa Maria court dressed in street clothes and not their county jail jumpsuits.
A condition the judge granted defense attorneys in the case in order for the local news media to be allowed in court to photograph and videotape the defendants in court as long as they are not photographed in handcuffs or other restraints.
Defense attorneys in the case told Judge Rick Brown they are not being given adequate, confidential access to their clients while they remain in county jail most with no bail allowed.
The defense attorneys also argued for a larger venue for the case going forward, in order to ensure the accused are given a fair and adequate defense.
"The inadequate facilities discussion only dealt with the courtroom, the fact that defense council doesn't have a place to sit, or a table, a place to put their binders, that type of thing", says Santa Barbara County Assistant District Attorney and lead prosecutor in the case, "so the next time I don't know where we will be but they are going to move this case to a setting where all of the defense counsel can have tables and chairs and everybody can have adequate defense."
The Ibarra defendants did not enter pleas to the various charges against them which include kidnapping, torture, murder and accessory to murder after the fact in the brutal killing of Anthony Ibarra at a home on West Donovan Road in Santa Maria earlier this year.
Ibarra's naked body was found two days later in an abandoned U-Haul trailer parked in Orcutt.
Grand Jury transcripts reveal the alleged motivation behind Ibarra's kidnapping, torture and murder was unpaid drug debts.
The eleven defendants will return for another hearing on September 12 at an undetermined location off of the Santa Maria Superior Court campus.

national has different meaning depending how competitive your country's sport.
A 19 yr old TH is at least 2 leverl better than howard shu but both are 'national' players.
A 19 yr old howard shu may got into national team under different motive than say TH when he got into national. In short, one by merit and the other by charity.
look at the current US ranking MS as of Nov 17. 2009

come on, even in canada, #12 doesn't get into national team unless for charity reason. IMO, our mike beres, 36.5 years old, can beat all of the above MS.
I dont mean to start a US vs CAN debate. I just want to show at what level was of howard shu.Last edited by cooler; 11-30-2009 at 09:46 PM.
^^Off topic-What is that ranking based on??..^^
..is that ranking similar to the current much talked about and much questioned BWF ranking??..Is the list reflective of the talent? Or is it based on how many tournaments a player entered (you forgot to list how many tournaments each player entered)??
Looking at the list, most probably Lee Hock Lai, who is not a U.S. citizen, is the best of the bunch.

What do you mean "one by merit and one by charity"??..You meant Howard Shu made the U.S. team out of charity??..If under different motive, mind shedding a light on that motive??..Last edited by ctjcad; 12-01-2009 at 04:38 AM.
obviously, u haven't read or kept up on my defintion of levels, to make your pseudo guess of level.
it is also obvious u have no fresh or strong stand alone case to support your view but only trying to discredit or poke holes on our example case -not working tho LOL
I believe u would not do well under the NSS since it favors offensive and creative shot making players, not for the old reactionary and defensive type of players LOLLast edited by cooler; 12-01-2009 at 11:59 AM.
There are so many holes in your argument LOL. For example, so you are saying ZJH could do better against today's player? In other words Ardi losing to young US player could not serve as evidence for "past cannot match present"?
Btw, LCW is a defensive player. So is today's LD. More precisely, both of them are "counter-attack" players. In contrast, PG, TH, CH, XXZ are pure offensive players. Badminton is not as simple as "offensive strong, defensive weak". Furthermore did you forget CJ and LHI when you talk about "old style", "new style"?
My opinion of styles, from defensive to offensive:
As usual, you cannot say anything with information and turn to personal attacks...
At the pure amateur level (which I believe both you and I belong to), I don't think it matters which system is used. 15x3, 21x3, 7x5, 5x9, whatever. The one plays better wins, as simple as that.
1. LOL, if i have so many holes in my argument, why did you follow up with more questions??? LOL, Show me those holes instead LOL
Today's players are more omni-fensive than before. This is just common sense, we know more about tactic, skills, training, etc than previous players and coaches. Even the great tang fu knows more about badminton today than we he was at his peak form.
Let me say this, when LD is playing, ALL his opponents are defensive players, period. LOLOLOLOLLast edited by cooler; 12-01-2009 at 12:18 PM.
Your post in contradicting. In one example you say the past great is no good because he stopped systematic training. Your other example then suggest the past great is still better than average(or much better) even after they are out of systematic training.
Or are you telling me that Howard Shu is stronger than Sun Jun? (Since he is present? LOL)
Why don't you just accept the fact that today's player are stronger and stop your non-sense?
It seems you don't see the big difference between one game, 7 pts and 3 games 15 pts?
ZJH at 32/33 has no difficulty adapting to the pace of the game 5 yrs after his retirement, but due to age and lack of systematic training, he won't be able to keep up with the pace for the whole game/match and therefore if it's a full match, he would definitely lose. Where's the contradiction? confused:
"past great is no good because he stopped systematic training"? Isn't it common sense that "any player is no good without systematic training"?
Just look at CH. 2 years out of national team (and he is indeed under systematic training, just not as high quality as the training he used to be under), he has already fallen to the level of a good provincial player. What would happen in 10 years if he stops training now, and spend his time walking around coaching kids and playing some local tournaments now and then? Would he be able to beat the a US MS?
Therefore, a past great without systematic training losing to a young gun is not a surprise at all.

u gone side way, again.
we are talking about present vs current best. Lets not compare out of condition vs new condition. yes, wong8egg had highlighted the video of ardy losing to a young lad. This video served 2 purposes:
1. that older generation tactic and skills are no longer potion enough for today's game. Past players have stamina but less speed. Today's top players have both.
2. we acknowledged that aged players have higher mountain to climb to beat younger and lesser experienced players. It will be a case by case basis. The point was, at #12 ranking of a no powerhouse MS country, he still beat ardy the ex-pro with titles galore. Since ardy competed, surely he felt he has the chance to win and fit enough to compete.
this thread is about debating point #1. Don't try to inject point #2 as our sole argument here. Point #2 is just a side menu, not the main course. By hammering point #2, u r going off topic. Show me the money on point #1Last edited by cooler; 12-01-2009 at 02:18 PM.
So, here are the answers (as promised)..
..so here are the answers (as promised) from the same person i chatted with:
- Probably not.
- Sure.
- Yes.
- He has no sentimental feeling. Just from what he recall.
Then i asked 5 other people, all varying from different ages, but who've watched YY and ZHJ play in the 80s. Taking into account both YY and LD are playing with the same racket equipment.
Person A (another M'sian fellow, same age as the person i chatted with, in his 40s): He told me, in is opinion, it's very hard to tell since they came from different eras. But YY would win over LD simply because he could set up and not give LD much chance to attack.
Person B (another M'sian fellow, older gentleman, in his 50s): He told me, in his opinion, LD would win simply because he's a smarter player esp. late in the match.
Person C (another M'sian fellow but a younger generation than the others, in his 30s): He told me, in his opinion, it's hard to say. But technique wise YY would outmaneuver LD and would win over LD. He even tried to copy YY's style when he was growing up. He told me, the difference nowadays is that players are quicker and more explosive because of the level of training. If LD were to win, it won't be easy and the scoring system would matter.
Person D (a HK fellow who've followed badminton for a long time, in his 40s): He told me, in his opinion, it's really hard to tell. The game and style at that time was different, a slower pace and a lot of rallies. LD would win but more so with the NSS. But if he were to win with the OSS, it would be a very tough one.
Person E (an INA fellow, younger than the other 4 older folks, in his 30s): He told me, in his opinion, LD would win because he's much faster and has more stamina and power in his game. However he is not sure which scoring system would LD prevail in.
So, there you have it. A gamut of frank opinions and no, they were given without any under the table deal..Last edited by ctjcad; 12-07-2009 at 05:51 AM.
Thanks for replying. But what he said is contradicting.
He believes YY could penetrate LD's defense but probably not able to outmaneuver him. That's require FHF smashing power plus extreme precision and I don't see anyone has that ability so far.
It doesn't make sense that a player with less powerful smash could penetrate a more mobile player and not the vice versa.
Ever wonder why today's MS use mostly low serve? The reason is simple, today's player can leap from the base and hit a killer shot unlike in the past that a high serve could give a server the advantage. That's explain today's player are more agile, more dynamic and fitter.
I find it extremely annoying that people always use the OSS as an excuse or turtle shell for the old school player. The better player win and that's like the law of physics and it doesn't matter how you draw the equation. Peter Gade cannot beat LD in the OSS and he still can't in the NSS!
LD is fitter, faster, stronger, more mobile, and has more stamina but people suggest that YY would win if we count differently?! (Look how Table Tennis has changed their scoring and guess who is still winning most? )
I remember each time when I beat the old folks in my club using the NSS , they blame the scoring. And when I beat them in the OSS, they blame their partner, lighting and blah blah blah...
Feel free to pass on to your friend.

- Outmaneuver in terms of speed, quickness, explosive movement (we all know LD has the edge). But, according to that person, YY would counter or diffuse those with his more superior techniques, deception/trickery. According to him and most of those same people i asked, they said YY's defense is pretty good and would probably be able to absorb/handle LinDan's smashes.
Another factor to consider is the equipment used during that time and now (if LD were still using the same racket technology as before, would he be able to generate the same smash? and vice versa for the older players). Yes, it's hard to tell/judge.
The comparison was strictly based on each player's physical abilities/techniques.
- I'll pass whatever you wrote to the person i chatted with, but i don't think it'll convince him to think otherwise.
- Have you asked the same question(s) to some of your baddy friends (who actually watched YY, ZJH play) in your club?? What are their responses??..Last edited by ctjcad; 12-08-2009 at 07:05 PM.
i'm back
let me begin on their comment on today's equips. In their argument for the YY and ZJH case, it is similar to excuses that wong8 got from the old folks, they lost because of NSS, if not, it's the lighting, floor, if not that,it is because of wong8's better racket, shoes, blah blah blah. During the peak years of YY and ZJH, they were using cab20, IMO, which is still a great racket, and form the core design of today's racket, all carbon fiber, seamless joint, 2U range (pros actually prefer U to 2U). There are players today still seeking cab 20/21/22, so i do not think their old cab20 made them perform anything less in term of racket performance. I bet YY and ZJU likely using bg65, today's LD uses bg65ti (during yonex sponsor years). On the string side, again, i don't see equip difference here that could influence performance difference between past and present. If your frens think the MP grommet, armortec shape frame, or the nanocarbon powder in the resin could help YY and ZJH to play better than today's pros, then i really question their confidence they have on YY /ZJH's natural ability in the first place.Last edited by cooler; 12-08-2009 at 11:50 PM.
again, i question their judgement. Back those days, YY and ZJH jumpsmash is really more like leapsmashing. Today's jumpsmashing is real full body lift, twist and leg kicking jumpsmashing. The latter is steep and harder smash. No comparison. YY has pretty good defense? maybe but pretty good is not good enough for today's MS, LD, LCW, SDk, etc can dive save as well. I have not seen YY or ZJH does full jumpsmashing or dive saving. One last point as well, today's MS can smash way more accurate than past pros. Steeper, harder, more accurate smashes, old pros don't stand a chance in these departments.

Pumpkin Cookies with Brown-Butter Icing
Shane went to an Oktoberfest party this weekend, and of course I wanted to bake something for him to bring. Believe it or not, these cookies were the third treat I attempted to make for the party. The first two? Well, let's just say they didn't turn out very well. I completely under-baked another batch of cookies I attempted and while they were still edible, I didn't want to send semi-gooey cookies with Shane. The pan of brownies I had such high hopes for developed a weird crunchy top as they baked (not the thin, crispy top that's so enviable). This crunchy top puffed in the oven then completely caved and cracked as it cooled. Not good eats. I was beginning to think I had completely lost my baking mojo until these pumpkin cookies came along and saved the day.
Anytime I bake something with pumpkin I'm inclined to combine it with cream cheese frosting - it's easily one of my favorite combinations. When I came upon this recipe though, I knew if anything could compete with cream cheese frosting on pumpkin, it might be brown butter. Nutty and rich, it not only smells amazing, it makes everything it touches better. It didn't disappoint - these cookies are probably one of the best treats to emerge from my kitchen in months. Soft, cakey and warmly spiced, the cookies would be great even if you skipped the icing. But please don't :) It's super easy to make, and works so well on these cookies. I loved that you could see the little flecks of brown butter in the icing. Shane said the cookies were very well received at the party, and I know I've eaten more than my fair share!
While we're on the topic of pumpkin, I thought I'd take a minute to highlight some of my favorite pumpkin recipes from the archives. These are the recipes I long to make when pumpkin season arrives each fall :)
Pumpkin Whoopie Pies
Pumpkin-Cinnamon Streusel Buns
Pumpkin Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
Pumpkin Spice Scones with Maple Glaze
Cinnamon Swirl Pumpkin Yeast Bread
Pumpkin Cookies with Brown-Butter Icing
from Martha Stewart's Cookies
{You'll see the recipe calls for piping the batter onto the baking sheets, which I think just ensures the cookies have a nice, consistent shape. You could use a cookie scoop to dish them out if you're looking for a shortcut, but they may not be perfectly round.}
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 1/4 teaspoons ground ginger
3/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin puree
3/4 cup half-and-half (or evaporated milk)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
10 tablespoons (1 1/4 sticks) unsalted butter
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon half-and-half (or evaporated milk)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg together. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs until combined. With the mixer on low, add the pumpkin, half-and-half and vanilla and beat until very well blended, about 2 minutes. Keep the mixer on low and add the dry ingredients. Beat until just combined.
Transfer the batter to a pastry bag fitted with a plain tip. Pipe 1 1/2-inch rounds onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 to 1 1/2 inches between them. Bake for 12 minutes, or until the tops of the cookies spring back when lightly pressed. Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack and let the cookies cool for 5 minutes than remove them to the rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining batter.
To make the icing: Add the confectioners' sugar to a large heatproof bowl. Put the butter in a small saucepan, set over medium heat and let it start melting. Continue cooking, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter becomes golden brown and smells nutty (be patient and watch carefully, it can go from brown to burnt quickly). Remove it from the heat and pour it over the confectioners' sugar, scraping the browned bits from the bottom of the pan as well. Add the half-and-half and vanilla and stir until the icing is smooth. Using a small offset spatula, spread about 1 teaspoon of icing on each cookie. (If the icing stiffens before you get them all frosted (it probably will), add a little more half-and-half and stir vigorously to lighten it up.)
Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

I love the look of those cookies. Pumpkin and frosting just go together very well. I would love to have one of those cookies right now, but I haven't even had breakfast. The pumpkin cinnamon rolls and the bread look awfully good too :)

I hate when I have a couple flops in a row like that! But good for you for pushing on - I would've given up and told my husband to stop at the grocery store for something! :P
The cookies look seriously delicious! I've always avoided pumpkin cookies but with brown butter icing? Yeah, I'm making these. - October 23, 2011 at 10:05 AM

Mmmm. I'm definitely making browned butter icing for something. That sounds too good to pass up. I have a favorite pumpkin cookie recipe (not sure if I've blogged it, actually), but I might have to try these anyway.

Oh, yeah, I think brown butter icing is a fabulous alternative to cream cheese icing...these look yummy!

These sound freaking delicious! I know how you feel with the failed recipes. That happened to me last December while I was doing my Christmas baking. I need to try these cookies though. The browned butter icing is making my mouth water like crazy!

Doh...I hate it when baking goes bad. But clearly it was your destiny to make these cookies. They look great and I love the brown butter icing idea in place of cream cheese. I've made many recipes from Martha's cookies book, but not sure how I've missed this one. I must try these.
- October 25, 2011 at 1:15 AM
