Peter Riegert Movies
University of Buffalo graduate, former Bella Abzug campaign worker, and onetime schoolteacher
Peter Riegert
finessed an early flair for comedy into appearing with an improv troupe called the War Babies. This led to
's Broadway bow in 1975, then to his being hired by the National Lampoon people for several projects, the first of which was
Animal House
(1978), in which the actor portrayed Donald "Boon" Schoenstein. He went on to play such roles as the feckless corporate-flunky good guy in
Local Hero
(1983) and the unhitched pickle vendor Amy Irving would never marry in a million years but does anyway in
Crossing Delancey
(1989). Usually bypassed by the gossip columnists (which he doesn't seem to mind at all),
raised journalistic eyebrows when he was cast opposite his onetime lady friend
Bette Midler
in the 1993 TV version of
. In the years to come, Riegert would venture behind the camera as a director, in addition to continued roles on screen, including regular appearances on One Tree Hill and The Good Wife. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Two young men are looking for a better life but may have to go to the wrong side of the law to get it in this independent drama from director John Gray. Brian Leary (Nick Thurston) and Danny (Geoff Wigdor) are brothers living in a decaying Brooklyn neighborhood in 1975. Tired of dealing with their angry and abusive father (Stephen Lang) and high-strung mother (Karen Allen), both Brian and Danny want to move out and do something different with their lives, but their ambitions travel different paths. Danny, the older brother, is a petty criminal who is trying to finance a new life one hold-up at a time; Brian, meanwhile, works at a movie theater and paints in his spare time, though he doesn't tell anyone about his dreams of becoming an artist. Brian thinks he might be able to bankroll a few years at art school when Whitey (Peter Riegert), the manager of the theater, tells him they have a shot at booking the Rolling Stones for a special show at the theater, which would mean a big payday for everyone. But when Danny hears about the big show, he starts making plans of his own to rob the box office the night of the concert. White Irish Drinkers received its world premiere at the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The First Basket
David Vyorst's documentary The First Basket takes a look at the early days of the Basketball Association of America. When it was formed in 1946, the majority of players were Jewish -- a fact that certainly is not true of American basketball just 60 years later. This film showcases how these athletes provided inspiration for Jews suffering discrimination. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

Back When We Were Grownups
Adapted from the novel by Anne Tyler, the made-for-TV "Hallmark Hall of Fame" presentation Back When We Were Grownups stars Blythe Danner as 53-year-old Baltimore widow Rebecca Davitch. Having long since given up her dreams of college to get married and raise a family, and also having abandoned all of her other goals and ambitions in order to manage her family's catering business, Rebecca is attending an engagement party for her stepdaughter when it suddenly strikes her that she has, in the words of the film's press release, "been living the wrong life!" Thus begins Rebecca's quest to reclaim her lost youth -- with her childhood sweetheart Will Allenby (Peter Fonda) figuring prominently in Rebecca's "second wind." Boasting a star-studded supporting cast (Faye Dunaway, Jack Palance, Nina Foch, Peter Reigert, Ione Skye), Back When We Were Grownups was first broadcast November 21, 2004, on CBS. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A man looking for a new purpose in his life finds one that last place he expected in this comedy. Leo Spivak (Peter Riegert) is a man slowly sinking into the quicksand of a midlife crisis. He's become increasingly unsatisfied with his career in product testing, especially now that his young assistant Ed (Jake Hoffman) has taken to stealing his ideas and passing them on to his boss as his own work. Leo's marriage to Rachel (Isabella Rossellini) is not what it once was, especially now that she's shifted into a constant state of near-hysteria over their daughter, Elena (Ashley Johnson), and her budding romance with an aspiring juvenile delinquent. And Leo is spending every other weekend with his aging father, Sol (Eli Wallach), who has lost his will to live but uncooperatively won't die. As Leo puzzles over his path in life, he finds some very unexpected answers when he makes the acquaintance of Evelyn Fink (Eric Bogosian), a "freelance Rabbi" with some unusual spiritual advice. King of the Corner was directed and co-written by leading man Riegert; the screenplay was adapted from stories in the collection Bad Jews by Gerald Shapiro. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit: Conscience
Detectives Stabler (Christopher Meloni) and Benson (Mariska Hargitay) investigate when the five-year-old son of prominent psychiatrist Brett Morton (Kyle MacLachlan) vanishes from a toy store. Though the most obvious suspect would seem to be the convicted child molester seen hanging around the store just before the boy's disappearance, the trail of clues ultimately leads to the victim's 13-year-old neighbor Jake O'Hara (Jordan Garrett). Despite his youth, Jake proves to be a cunning sociopath, adept at manipulating the detectives and leading them down several wrong paths. Ultimately, however, Jake meets his doom at the hands of someone even more clever--and far more manipulative--than he is. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Unseen + Untold: Animal House
On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the release of the classic "raunch comedy" National Lampoon's Animal House, the Spike TV cable channel offered this behind-the-scenes special on the making of the film. Amidst a sea of anecdotes concerning the mercurial behavior of the film's star, John Belushi, the documentary offers a number of hitherto unknown factoids. Though filmmakers John Landis and Ivan Reitman, National Lampoon editors Matty Simmons and Chris Miller, and Animal House stars Tim Matheson, Peter Riegert, Karen Allen, and Bruce McGill are among the noteworthy interviewees, the real "star" of the documentary is the original film's script, which spoke more eloquently to its generation than many another more serious efforts of the era. Also featured are outtakes, alternate scenes, and clips from the dead-at-birth TV series spin-off, Delta House (which co-starred a very young Michelle Pfeiffer). The original telecast of Unseen + Untold: Animal House coincided with the DVD anniversary edition of the film, which contains even more bonus material. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Add Bleacher Bums to top of Queue
There are people who like to watch a ball game every once in a while, and then there are baseball fans, individuals of rare dedication whose passion for their favorite team defies conventional logic, and this comedy-drama follows a group of fans whose devotion to their hometown heroes is rarely tainted by the fact they almost never win. It's a typical summer afternoon, and a group of fans are watching the Chicago Bruins play a typically lamentable game from the cheapest seats in the stadium. Decker (Peter Reigert) is the owner of a hardware store who is playing hooky to watch the game. Marvin (Brad Garrett) and Zig (Wayne Knight) are compulsive gamblers who will bet on anything -- even the hapless Bruins. Richie (Hal Sparks) is a loyal Bruins booster who probably knows more about the team than the players do. Melody (Sarain Boylan) is a sexy fan who likes going to the game, getting some sun, and showing off her figure. And Greg (Matt Craven) likes to follow the game, even if he can't see the players -- he's blind. Bleacher Bums was based on a long-running stage play created by Chicago's Organic Theater Company; Joe Mantegna and Dennis Franz were among the actors who wrote and performed the play in its original incarnation, and Stuart Gordon, who went on as a filmmaker, also contributed to the script, as well as directing the premier production. This film adaptation of Bleacher Bums was produced for the Showtime premium cable network, where it premiered in the spring of 2002. Incidentally, in the stage version of Bleacher Bums, the baseball team in question was the Chicago Cubs, but the team and Major League Baseball refused to give the producers of the film permission to mention the Cubs in this adaptation. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Family Guy: When You Wish Upon a Weinstein
While Chris (voice of Seth Green) has problems with his math homework, an insurance salesman talks Peter (voice of Seth MacFarlane) into using Lois' (voice of Alex Borstein) rainy day money to buy "volcano insurance." When Lois finds out about it, she's very angry, and questions Peter's maturity. "If I'm a child," Peter responds, "you know what that makes you? A pedophile." When Peter finds out that Quagmire (MacFarlane) and Cleveland (voice of Mike Henry) both have Jewish people handling their finances, he decides to find a Jew of his own to help him with his money. He sings a little prayer, "I Need a Jew," to the heavens, and the next day, Max Weinstein (voice of Peter Riegert), an accountant, shows up at his door with car trouble. Peter convinces Max to get his money back from the insurance agent, and balance his checkbook. Peter even goes with Max to temple. Convinced that Judaism is the path to wisdom and financial security, Peter decides that Chris should convert and have a bar mitzvah. When the rabbi (voice of Ben Stein) at Temple Beth Thupporting Actor refuses to perform the ceremony, despite Peter's contention that his son is "bi-curious," Peter drags Chris off to Las Vegas for a quickie bar mitzvah. When Lois finds out where they've gone, she frantically races to stop them. This episode features the voices of Tom Kenny, Mark Hamill, and Ed McMahon. It was never aired on FOX, presumably due to its controversial nature. It eventually debuted on Cartoon Network, with one line from Peter's song changed, and was included in the Family Guy, Vol. 2 DVD set. ~ Josh Ralske, Rovi

Add Bojangles to top of Queue
Actor and dancer Gregory Hines served as both executive producer and star for this biographical drama that chronicles the life of legendary entertainer Bill "Bojangles" Robinson. In 1916, Robinson was a successful vaudeville performer and considered the finest tap dancer of his generation when he met Fannie (Kimberly Elise), a college student nearly two decades his junior. Even though Robinson was already married, he quickly fell in love with Fannie, and in time she was swept off her feet by the charismatic dancer and became his second wife. Fannie was one of the first people to encourage Robinson to stop performing in blackface (common for African-American vaudeville performers of the time), and in the 1930s, she and manager Marty Forkins (Peter Riegert) persuaded Bill to move to Hollywood and find work in the movies. While roles for black actors in Hollywood were severely limited at the time, Robinson managed to become a recognized film star, headlining the musical Stormy Weather and appearing in a number of pictures with child star Shirley Temple. But while Robinson's film work helped make him the best-known black performer in America, his frequent roles as domestic servants did little to earn him respect among his own people, and he was often seen as an "Uncle Tom" for his aggressively cheerful on-stage demeanor. And while Robinson was confronted with the less fortunate consequences of fame, he and Fannie had to deal with his growing addiction to gambling, which threatened to leave the highest-paid black man in America flat broke. Bojangles also features Savion Glover and Maria Ricossa; the film was produced for the Showtime premium cable network, where it first aired on February 4, 2001. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Described by director Steven Soderbergh as "Nashville meets The French Connection," this multi-character drama explores the effects of international drug trafficking on all fronts: from their source, to the U.S. border, to the federal government, to the private lives of users. Based upon a miniseries originally aired on Britain's Channel 4, Traffic divides its time among three main storylines and almost a dozen locales. The first and primary plot thread, set in Ohio and Washington, D.C., concerns freshly-appointed drug czar Robert Wakefield (Michael Douglas), whose enthusiasm for his new prestige position is quickly offset when he realizes his 16-year-old daughter Caroline (Erika Christensen) is graduating from recreational drug use to habitual abuse -- a secret that his wife, Barbara (Amy Irving), has kept from him. South of the border, Mexican cop Javier Rodriguez (Benicio Del Toro) attempts to wage his own war on drugs, heading off a cocaine shipment in the middle of the desert with his less-than-virtuous partner Manolo Sanchez (Jacob Vargas). Surrounded by corruption, Javier approaches the drug war with an attitude of patience and compromise, which opens him up to investigation from General Arturo Salazar (Tomas Milian), the country's dubious drug-enforcement liaison to the U.S. Meanwhile, San Diego drug kingpin Carlos Alaya (Steven Bauer) is caught in a sting operation spearheaded by DEA agents Montel Gordon (Don Cheadle) and Ray Castro (Luis Guzman), leaving behind his very pregnant and very oblivious wife, Helena (Catharine Zeta-Jones). At the behest of Carlos' lawyer and shady confidante, Arnie Metzger (Dennis Quaid), Helena decides to carry on the family business -- with tragic consequences. Adapted by Rules of Engagement scribe Stephen Gaghan, Traffic marked Soderbergh's second major release in 2000 after the critical and box-office success of Erin Brockovich, as well as his second feature as cinematographer (credited under the pseudonym Peter Andrews). A favorite with various guild and critics' awards, Traffic won four Academy Awards in 2001, including statues for Best Supporting Actor (Del Toro) and Best Adapted Screenplay (Gaghan), and surprise wins for Steven Mirrone's editing and Soderbergh's direction. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi

Somewhere in L.A., Peter (Kenneth Branagh), a washed-up British playwright, struggles to duplicate his past glory as he surfs a foul-smelling tide of disenchantment. His wife, Melanie (Robin Wright Penn), manages to maintain an optimistic outlook even as she longs for the baby that her husband is hesitant to help her conceive. When Peter befriends Amy (Suzi Hofrichter), a neighborhood girl who has mild cerebral palsy, their friendship softens him to the idea of fatherhood and propels Melanie's maternal yearnings into hyperdrive. As if baby fever weren't enough, Peter is plagued by a seemingly benevolent stalker (Jared Harris), his neighbors' incessantly noisy dog, and the flighty cast and crew of his latest play. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

Marie (Moore) is an American widow trying to raise two children under difficult circumstances in a small town in France. Marty (also played by Moore) is a successful businesswoman in New York City who wants to leave her busy life and lead a quieter existence in Europe. But Marty is just a product of Marie's imagination -- or at least that's what Marie thinks. Marty, on the other hand, is convinced that Marie is just someone she dreamed up. Who is right? Or are both of them wrong? And where does it leave the men in their lives (Stellan Skarsgard and William Fichtner)?

Scandalous Me: The Jacqueline Susann Story
The flamboyant novelist who brought the world such deathless literary masterpieces as Valley of the Dolls and Once is Not Enough is the subject of this made-for-cable biopic. Michele Lee stars as Jacqueline Susann, a second-string actress and well-known party girl who turned to journalism after her marriage to producer Irving Mansfield (Peter Reigert). Though constantly surrounded by Show Business Glitterati, Susann would not achieve celebrity status herself until age 47, when she published the lurid best-seller Valley of the Dolls. Though outwardly giving the impression that she was tough as nails and utterly invulnerable, Susann in truth had her share of anguish and tragedy, coping with the challenge of raising an autistic son, struggling against substance abuse, and ultimately waging a long, losing battle against breast cancer. According to studio publicity, star Michele Lee (who also served as executive producer) wore some of Susann's own jewelry and wardrobe in the course of making the film. Largely based on the biography by Barbara Seaman, Scandalous Me: The Jacqueline Susann Story made its USA network debut on December 9, 1998, several months before Bette Midler's theatrically released spin on the Susann legend, Isn't She Great. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Actor Matthew Broderick made his directorial debut with this romantic drama based on the life of Nobel Prize-winning scientist Richard Feynman. Feynman (Broderick) grew up in New York, where, early on, he began to display a remarkably keen intelligence and a fascination with science encouraged by his parents. While in high school, Richard meets a beautiful girl named Arline Greenbaum (Patricia Arquette), and they quickly fall in love. Richard and Arline intend to marry someday, but they decide it would be prudent to wait until after they finish college -- they have no money, and Richard intends to attend Princeton after finishing his undergraduate work at M.I.T. However, these plans are changed when Arline discovers that she has tuberculosis, which was a very severe illness in the '30s; treatments were not always effective and victims were generally sent to sanitariums, where they could be quarantined from the rest of the population. With Arline's health in question, Richard agrees to marry her immediately. He's also offered a position in Los Alamos, NM, working on a top-secret project for the government. Richard tries to help Arline through her illness as he begins to develop ethical qualms about his new assignment, which is to help design and construct an atomic bomb.

Former Player of Year Holland to Play for Thunder in NBA Summer League
Former Boston University men's basketball standout John Holland has landed a spot on the Oklahoma City Thunder's NBA Summer League roster. The 2011 America East Player of the Year and his 12 teammates will represent the reigning Western Conference champions in Orlando, Fla., for five games on Monday, July 9 - Friday, July 13.
Looking to fulfill his dream of signing a NBA contract, Holland played this past season with Chorale Roanne in France's top league. He finished second on the team in scoring at 14.1 ppg while shooting 54.6 percent from the field and 41.2 percent from behind the arc. He also averaged 4.6 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 1.9 assists per game.
A 6-foot-5, 205-pound guard/forward combo player from Bronx, N.Y., Holland finished his career as just the second in America East history alongside NBA star Reggie Lewis to have at least 2,000 points, 700 rebounds and 200 steals.
A three-time First Team All-Conference honoree, he repeated as the league's scoring champion at 19.2 ppg in 2011 and also led BU in rebounding at 5.8 rpg. That same season, he picked up the program's fourth-ever Player of the Year award before the start of the conference tournament and followed with his 10th-career double-double (27 pts., 11 rebs.) in the title game for the championship's Most Outstanding Player honor.
During the second half against Stony Brook, Holland single-handedly cut a 15-point deficit to one and scored the last two points of the game with two seconds remaining from the free throw line for the 56-54 victory.
Tallying a game-high 19 points against Kansas in the second round of the NCAAs, he was recognized by the Associated Press as an All-America Honorable Mention and was also placed on the Lou Henson "Mid-Major" All-America Team.
Fans will be able to watch all of the summer league games live on NBA TV and online by clicking here. Holland will be wearing jersey number 25.

More students are using LinkedIn, and you should too
You've probably heard of LinkedIn, the "Facebook for professionals" with over 200 million users. We've assembled a list of reasons of why it's a great idea for students to start using LinkedIn while still attending college.
Connecting with professionals - At its core, LinkedIn provides professionals an opportunity to connect with each other over the internet. While students might say "add me on Facebook", professionals will ask that you add them on LinkedIn. This way, when that executive looks at your profile, they don't see party pictures, but a polished profile with work history and skills.
Sharing ideas and discussion - Attending a college like Whitman is about exploring your passions, and LinkedIn has over a million groups dedicated to sharing thoughts about every topic you can think of. They provide an excellent opportunity to connect with professionals and enthusiasts who share your interests, and can expand your network to broader horizons.
Exploring your career options - There are so many different paths to take with your career, and LinkedIn gives you an opportunity to browse the paths of other professionals. Are you interested in consulting? You can search for consultants on LinkedIn, and view their skills and career history. If you have more questions, you can contact them and ask for an informational interview, which gives you the opportunity to network and learn about the important skills and experiences relevant to your career path.
Researching organizations - Over 1 million organizations have public profiles on LinkedIn, which gives you an opportunity to learn more about their company culture, connect with employees, and apply for job openings.
Increasing your visibility - LinkedIn is a huge network, and once you have registered and fully completed your profile, you have made yourself visible to professionals and organizations around the world. The overwhelming majority of recruiters now use social media (and LinkedIn especially) to scout for potential employees. This trend is only increasing, with more hiring occurring in-network than on public job boards.

3 Deadly Business Phrases to Avoid
Tweet Share on Facebook January 29, 2009 Comment (2)Earlier today I caught the top 10 myths about small business by blogger Wealthy Bag Lady. She proves with examples that you don't necessarily need megabucks, a certain minimum or maximum age, or fancy offices, but you do need to know how to sell, and you have to keep learning, and you can't do it all on your own.
That reminded me of the myths I deal with way too often in the world of start-ups and small business. Several of them make me mad. For example:
Be your own boss ...
Competition Good for Small Businesses
Tweet Share on Facebook January 29, 2009 Comment (4)You need competition, and your business will do better if you have some competition. That was the point made by a successful entrepreneur from my hometown.
He told a local restaurant owner to quit worrying about the restaurant up the road. They aren't wasting time worrying about you, he told her, and you both benefit from putting people in the habit of eating out more often.
Using Social Media and Crowd-Sourcing for Quick and Simple Market Research
Tweet Share on Facebook January 27, 2009 Comment (11)The Internet is fundamentally changing how market research and data collection are done. Low-cost, online survey tools like Survey Monkey make it easy for small businesses to afford, design, and conduct survey research.
Even cheaper and easier is using social media sites and tools to ask questions.
Bloggers have long used their blogs to ask questions of their audience. They simply post a question on their blog and ask readers to use comments to answer. The Small Business Trends blog does this quite often.
But even if you don't blog, you can still ask questions online.
Job Loss in the Recession: If You Work for Yourself, Are You Worse Off?
Tweet Share on Facebook January 26, 2009 Comment (4)Lately, there has been a lot of discussion of job losses. Most of that discussion has focused on people who work for others because it's easier for people to grasp the meaning of job losses in terms of company layoffs than in terms of decisions by self-employed people to shutter their operations.
Perhaps because loss of jobs by the wage employed is easier to explain, the media have been pretty silent about how bad recession-induced job loss has been on the self-employed. So, I decided to take a look at this question.
Below is a chart that I created from data downloaded from the Bureau of Labor Statistics website. It measures the change in the (seasonally adjusted) number of self-employed and nonagricultural private-sector wage-employed people between December 2007 and July 2008 and between July 2008 and December 2008. I set the baseline to 100 percent in December 2007 for both groups so that the different job-loss patterns for the wage- and self-employed are clear.
Obama Has a Message for Business Owners
Tweet Share on Facebook January 21, 2009 Comment (2)So, do you feel any different?
This week, Barack Obama took the oath of office, became the unhyphenated 44th President of the United States, and will now saddle up his Juggernaut of Change for its date with destiny.
Meanwhile, you and I have businesses to run.
But it's worth pausing for just a moment to contemplate the shift in direction that so many of us have been longing for and, thus, voted into office last November.
Obama: Business People Could Learn a Thing or Two From Him
Tweet Share on Facebook January 13, 2009 Comment (1)People are more or less obsessed with our soon-to-be 44th president of the United States, for any number of reasons.
There's a rather large dollop of Bush Fatigue (if that's not an understatement). There's the historical significance of having elected our very first African-American president, not least of which is how much better that makes us feel about ourselves on the icky race issue.
And there's the simple fact that Barack Obama is just different. We watch him carefully because we really don't know what he'll do next.
Helping Women-Owned Businesses
Tweet Share on Facebook January 12, 2009 CommentAccording to the Equity in Contracting for Women Act, businesses owned by women are supposed to be awarded 5 percent of all federal government goods and services contracts. It turns out that over the past few years, women-owned businesses have received only 3.4 percent of awards.
Because of the size of the federal government, a difference of 1.6 percentage points adds up to $5 billion per year. And with huge federal economic stimulus spending expected over the next few years, the difference could easily reach $8 billion by 2010.
Needless to say, federal contracting is a huge opportunity for women-owned businesses.
Why Do People Become Entrepreneurs?
Tweet Share on Facebook January 12, 2009 Comment (7)Today is the first of what will be regular blogs of mine on this site. Because it is my first posting, I thought that I would start with a basic question: Why do people become entrepreneurs?
Researchers have identified myriad reasons why people start their own businesses, but across all of the surveys, interviews, and other efforts to understand entrepreneurial motivation, one reason stands out above all others: People start businesses because they don't want to work for someone else.
It's interesting that the desire not to have a boss is the primary motivator of entrepreneurs because "being one's own boss" appears to be the prime source of entrepreneurs' job satisfaction.
The Hidden Advantages for Small Businesses in a Recession
Tweet Share on Facebook January 8, 2009 CommentHow many 12-year-old girls do you know who would be able to boot up a Unix system of networked computers that could lock the doors and keep the raptors out?
That's the thing about movies, isn't it? The people who get into trouble often have the precise set of skills and characteristics to get them out of trouble.
But occasionally, real life imitates art. When there's trouble, those with the right skills flourish and those without them perish. Same principle but with higher casualty rates.
How Do I Weigh the Decision to Get a Business Degree?
Tweet Share on Facebook January 7, 2009 Comment (21)I get this question a lot, I guess because I founded a successful company and ran it for 20 years, and now I teach an entrepreneurship class. Maybe it's that I got my degrees in literature and journalism first, then an M.B.A. 10 years later. And I have mixed feelings.
And maybe it's that a lot of people are suddenly thinking about the M.B.A. shelter as a port in the storm, to hide out until the economy gets better.
So I've made you a list; that's a typical M.B.A. trick. It comes with the degree:
1.If life gives you a way to get the M.B.A. degree without huge sacrifice—like maybe you're still young and don't have a family, maybe you're having trouble with getting a new job, or whatever—and it sounds like fun to you, do it. Consider it a luxury.

The mission of this 325-acre wildlife refuge, the largest area of continuous open space on Aquidneck Island, is to provide quality environmental education to a wide range of audiences and preserve the land of diverse habitats. It reaches 40,000 people each year who attend programs and events and who visit the sanctuary to walk the seven miles of hiking trails.
Volunteers at this site on Community Service day will help install 200 bird boxes that immediately attract migrating birds, mostly tree swallows. It involves making a hole and pounding the stakes that hold the boxes into the ground. Volunteers are encouraged to bring gloves and sunscreen, if possible, and to wear long pants and sturdy shoes.

"Earth Scientists Pin Climate Change Squarely On 'Humanity'"
"The weather is one of those topics that is fairly easy for people to agree on. Climate, however, is something else. Most of the scientists who study the Earth say our climate is changing and humans are part of what's making that happen. But to a lot of nonscientists it's still murky. This week, two of the nation's most venerable scientific institutions tried to explain it better."
NOAA 2012 Climate Change Report: Rising Seas, Snow Melt, More Warming
"WASHINGTON -- A new massive federal study says the world in 2012 sweltered with continued signs of climate change. Rising sea levels, snow melt, heat buildup in the oceans, and melting Arctic sea ice and Greenland ice sheets, all broke or nearly broke records, but temperatures only sneaked into the top 10."
"New Mexico Is the Driest of the Dry"
"As an extended drought bakes the West, nowhere are ravages of changes in the climate worse than in New Mexico."
"Study: Watching Fox News Makes You Distrust Climate Scientists"
"In the past several years, a number of polls have documented the huge gap between liberals and conservatives when it comes to their acceptance of the science of climate change. Naturally, then, researchers have increasingly turned their attention to trying to explain this dramatic divide over what is factually true. And it wasn't long before they homed in on the role of conservative media in particular -- thus, a number of studies show that watching Fox News increases your risk of holding incorrect beliefs about the science of climate change."
"Climate Change Pushing Marine Life Towards the Poles, Says Study"
"Marine species, more than land-based species, are altering their breeding, feeding and migration patterns."
"Will Global Warming Lead to More War? It's Not That Simple."
"Last week, various news outlets were publishing all sorts of dire headlines about climate change and war.
"Roots Breakthrough for Drought-Resistant Rice"
"PARIS, France -- Japanese biotechnologists on Sunday said they had developed a rice plant with deeper roots that can sustain high yields in droughts that wipe out conventional rice crops."
"Google's Own Scientists Ask Google To Stop Funding Climate Deniers"
"Google's climate scientists are not happy with the company's political support for climate science denying Senator James Inhofe (R-OK)."
Opinion: "A Republican Case for Climate Action"
It is news that four former EPA administrators who served under Republican presidents wrote an op-ed published in the New York Times making "A Republican Case for Climate Change." Whether their persuasiveness will persuade may be in doubt -- but the fact that they tried may say a lot about the current US political situation.
Koch, Halliburton Use Revolving Door To Lobby Against Regulating Carbon
"The Koch brothers have turned to a former aide to House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) and Senator Jim Inhofe (R-OK) to lobby against the simple idea of a carbon tax."
"The Great Burning: How Wildfires Are Threatening the West"
"Terrifying blazes are the new normal in the West, where a mix of climate change and Tea Party politics has put an entire region at risk."
"Aviation Climate Pollution Flying Under the Radar"
"Climate change pollution from the airline industry is massive. Each plane that takes off emits about the same amount of carbon as 3,500 cars."
"Once Resilient, Trees In The West Now More Vulnerable To Fires"
"On any given day, there's a wildfire burning somewhere in the U.S. — and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Many western forests have evolved with fire, and actually benefit from the occasional wildfire."
"As New EPA Chief, Gina McCarthy Vows To Act on Climate Change"
"BOSTON -- The new head of the Environmental Protection Agency told an audience at Harvard Law School on Tuesday that cutting carbon pollution will 'feed the economic agenda of this country' and vowed to work with industry leaders on shaping policies aimed at curbing global warming."
"'Climate change will not be resolved overnight,' EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy told the 310-member audience. 'But it will be engaged over the next three years. That I can promise you.'
"With Too Much Rain in the South, Too Little Produce on the Shelves"
"FORT VALLEY, Ga. -- Peaches, the gem of the Southern summer, are just not so sweet this year."

FACTSHEETS on the EU
The Fact Sheets were created in 1979 for Parliament's first direct elections. Since then, they have been regularly reviewed and revised. They are intended to provide non specialists with a straightforward and concise overview of the European Union's institutions and policies , and of the role that Parliament plays in their development.
[ edit ] Energy resources The European Union has large coal, oil , and natural gas reserves . There are six oil producers in the European Union, primarily in North Sea oilfields . The United Kingdom by far is the largest producer, however Denmark, Germany, Italy, Romania and the Netherlands all produce oil. If it is treated as a single unit, which is not conventional in the oil markets, the European Union is the seventh largest producer of oil in the world, producing 3,424,000 (2001) barrels a day. It is also the world's second largest consumer of oil , consuming much more than it can produce, at 14,590,000 (2001) barrels a day.
Economy of the European Union
This survey looks into attitudes and perceptions of Europeans towards discrimination, based on different grounds (gender, ethnic origin, religion or beliefs, age, disability, sexual orientation and gender identity). As the last Eurobarometer on this topic, from 2009, this survey also includes several questions on the impact of the crisis on the implementation of anti-discrimination policies and efforts. New questions have been added to cover important or emerging topics, such as the situation of the Roma in Europe, discrimination outside the workplace or the links between discrimination and accessibility. Perceptions on discrimination against transsexual and transgender persons are also explored for the first time.

Carole Waugh: Arrested Man Charged With Fraud
A man arrested for the murder of businesswoman Carole Waugh is charged with four counts of conspiracy to commit fraud.
Carole Waugh's body was found in a lock-up garage in south London
Gallery: Police Have Issued Six More Pictures Of Ms Waugh
EnlargeA man arrested in connection with the murder and kidnap of oil executive Carole Waugh has been charged with conspiracy to commit fraud.
Nicholas Kutner, 47, of no fixed abode, is accused of pretending to be Ms Waugh's brother Chris in an alleged attempt to sell her London home.
He also faces two charges relating to the renting of the property and a further charge of unlawfully withdrawing money from the 50-year-old's bank account.
Kutner, who is charged along with unemployed Rakesh Bhayani, will appear at Camberwell Green Magistrates' Court on Monday.
Bhayani has already appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court charged with three counts of conspiracy to commit fraud by false representation to the value of £280,000.
Ms Waugh was found dead in the back of a car in a lock-up garage in south west London on Thursday evening, almost three months after her family reported her missing on May 7.
Her body was found in the boot of a blue VW Golf in a garage at Lime Court in New Malden, south west London. A post-mortem found she had died from a single stab wound.
Detectives said she met men through a variety of internet sites, including dating websites, and they were investigating the possibility that she might have been an escort.
So far, a total of 10 people have been arrested in connection with the inquiry into her disappearance. At least three women have tried to pose as her since she vanished, police said.
Officers are still appealing for information about the car Ms Waugh's body was found in.
Detective Chief Inspector John McFarlane said: "The vehicle is a blue VW Golf, registration number W466 NHL. We need to hear from anyone with information on the car, particularly since April this year."
Kutner has been bailed to return to a police station on August 25 in connection to his arrest for Ms Waugh's murder and kidnap.
He has not been freed because he is being held in custody on the fraud charges ahead of his court appearance.

Just for Me
My Dream To Be an Olympic Athlete
The Olympics are about to begin.
Which of course means I will once again have that deep longing to be an Olympic athlete.
I can do it this time around, I promise myself. I'll get up at 4 in the morning and hit the gym. I'll dedicate every waking hour to training and honing my skills to perfection. When my kids demand things like snacks, water and entertainment, I'll say, "Not now children! Can't you see that mommy is becoming an Olympic athlete?!" They will immediately put aside their needs and watch with pride as their mother goes for the gold.
My first step of course is to pick a sport.
Gymnastics is an obvious choice because I can still do a pretty sweet cartwheel. But I just looked up the median age of a gymnast and it is unfortunately not 40 something.
Well, how about the equestrian competition? 71-year-old equestrian Hiroshi Hoketsu is competing in London this summer and he's like a billion years older than me! Score!! Except I'm not really a horse person. I consider myself more of a miniature pony at the local fair kind of girl. Or better yet, I like those carousel horses. People rarely fall off of those.
Fencing is out since I got a C+ in fencing in high school. Seriously, shouldn't just showing up in gym class get you at least a B in fencing?! No, I'm not still bitter. Why do you ask?
Synchronized swimming sounds super fun. Except I get so cold in the pool that I don't like to stay in too long. They really need a speed synchronized swimming category.
Beach volleyball would be a blast but there is no way, post four children, I'm wearing one of those skimpy volleyball bikini outfits. Do you think a muumuu would hinder my volleyball skills? I'm thinking not because I don't have any volleyball skills! Bonus!!
Great. So I've found my sport. Beach muumuu volleyball.
Now I only need to find a coach, a place to train, perfect the sport, compete in regional, national and international competitions, ultimately secure a spot on the Olympic team, obtain sponsors like the National Association of Muumuu Wearers and become an Olympic champion!
I'm suddenly so exhausted.
Maybe I'll just sit on my couch, eating candy, drinking wine and cheering for the athletes. I could totally win a gold medal in couch cheering.

Fox Chase Receives Humanitarian Award

The honor recognizes those "whose humanitarian purposes and endeavors contribute to finding a cure for cancer, unselfishly and devoutly in the name of mankind."
The occasion marks the first time the award has gone to an organization instead of an individual. Biologist Biao Luo, director of the Cancer Genome Institute, accepted the award on the Center's behalf at a gala in Edison, New Jersey.
The Greek American association also awarded Jeff Boyd, senior vice president for molecular medicine, a $10,000 grant for research on ovarian cancer.

Amy Stretten, '11, Moderates United Nations Panel on Indigenous Media
Stretten's panel included Kenneth Deer, founder of The Eastern Door newspaper, which serves the Mohawks of Kahnawake, Quebec; Nils Johan Heatta, chairman of the World Indigenous Television Broadcasters Network; J. Kehaulani Kauanui, radio producer and professor at Wesleyan University; and Angel Tibán Guala, director of the television of Movimiento Indígena Campesino de Cotopaxi (TV MICC).
Stretten has been working on her journalistic startup, NativeRemmix.com, an indigenous arts and culture news site for Native youth of the U.S. and Canada. She earned $5,000 for the project from the Tow-Knight Center for Entrepreneurial Journalism after she began developing it in Prof. Jeff Jarvis's Entrepreneurial Journalism class last fall.
"From community radio and television to feature films and documentaries, from video art and newspapers to the internet and social media, indigenous peoples are using these powerful tools to challenge mainstream narratives, bring human rights violations to international attention, and forge global solidarity," U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said in a message preceding the Aug. 9 event. "They are also developing their own media to reflect indigenous values and fight against myths and misconceptions."
There are an estimated 370 million indigenous people in some 70 countries around the world. Practicing unique traditions, they retain social, cultural, economic, and political characteristics that are distinct from those of the dominant societies in which they live.

LeBron James and the Miami Heat are one win away from an NBA championship. James scored 26 points, dished out 12 assists and grabbed nine rebounds before dealing with leg cramps late in Game 4, while Dwyane Wade scored 25 and the Heat rallied from 17 points down to beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 104-98 on Tuesday night.
The Heat now lead the best-of-seven series 3-1, and could win the title in Miami on Thursday.
Mario Chalmers scored 19 of his 25 points in the second half for Miami, which got 13 from Chris Bosh. Russell Westbrook had a career playoff-high 43 points and Kevin Durant added 28 for the Thunder. They were the only Thunder players to score in the last 16:46.

The Fatal framework is written in C++, and thus can be ported to any C++ supporting device.
The modularity of the framework allows to make most of the game code portable, mostly game logic, and only specific modules need to be rewritten for every platform.
Portable mean that the game logic code works AS IS for every platform without any need to change it or adjust it for each platform. The non portable code is mostly the framework code, which means once it's written, it's good for all the games using it.
This make it possible to have a consistent game throughout many platforms, and thus allows what the following video shows:

Why is the symbol @ used in e-mail addresses?
An e-mail address identifies a location to which e-mail messages can be delivered. The first electronic mail delivery engaging two machines was done in 1971 by Ray Tomlinson, a programmer at Bolt, Beranek and Newman, an engineering company in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He needed a way to separate, in the e-mail address, the name of the user from the machine the user was on. He wanted a character that would not, under any conceivable circumstances, be found in the user's name. He looked down at the keyboard and chose the @ sign among various punctuation marks available on his Model 33 teletype keyboard. He had no idea that he was creating an icon for the wired world. Today, e-mail is the most used application on the internet. Each e-mail account has a unique address. A general format for an e-mail address is: username@computer_name. The part before the @ sign is the local part of the address, the user name of the recipient, and the part after the @ sign is the domain part which is a host computer name.

'Time Light' Steven Holl Lecture at the Cooper Union
Hosted by the Architectural League and co-sponsored by The Irwin S. Chanin School of Architecture of The Cooper Union, Steven Holl will lecture in the Great Hall at The Cooper Union on November 28 at 7:00pm. Holl's architecture and writing has undergone a shift in emphasis, from his earlier concern with typology to his current interest in phenomenology. This "Time Light" lecture is dedicated to Lebbeus Woods and will show both early and recent works by Steven Holl Architects. Following the lecture, Steven Holl will be joined in conversation by Sanford Kwinter. For more information on the event, please visit here.

Form of Public Control / Co-De:CounterDesign
Designed by Jae K. Kim of Co-De:CounterDesign, the Form of Public Control project is aimed at being the 20th century's notion of a skyscraper in Manhattan. As a symbolic individual in the city, it should be redefined due to the reinterpretation of the grid to accommodate more public amenities and facilitate the cultural contexts of Manhattan. Currently, the project is exhibited for the collateral event of the Venice Architecture Biennale, at Palazzo Bembo, which was invited from the Global Art Affairs Foundation.

Steven Holl: 'Scale' Lecture
Taking place at Cooper Union in New York, the Steven Holl: 'Scale' lecture focuses on the firm's current work in exploring new ways of integrating an organizing idea with the programmatic and functional essence of a building, "always using the unique character of a program and a site as the starting point for an architectural idea." Steven Holl was the recipient of the 2012 AIA Gold Medal. His firm has been honored with many awards, publications, and exhibitions for excellence in design, most recently, their Cité de l'Océan et du Surf Museum (pictured in the slideshow above) won the Emirates Glass Leaf Award, the Annual Design Review, and the American Architecture Award.

Save the Prentice Wrecking Ball: The Monument to Bruce / Design With Company
The Save the Prentice Wrecking Ball: The Monument to Bruce, designed by Design With Company, is a response to the situation of the Prentice Women's Hospital in Chicago which aims at creating a new narrative for the building's afterlife. By combining literary and architectural narrative strategies, their design tries to recapture the narrative and produce the universe we need to steer us toward the conversations we want to have. This story is not a means to an end, it is the ends. More images and architects' description after the break.

LIVE MAKE Industrial Arts Center Cincinnati Competition
AIA Cincinnati, in partnership with the Over-the-Rhine Brewery District Community Urban Redevelopment Corporation, recently launched the LIVE MAKE Industrial Arts Center Cincinnati competition. They are calling for architectural proposals for a membership based facility that will feature private residences, maker-in-residence studios, light industrial studios and an open workshop that will help shape a new economic opportunity for the neighborhood. Proposals should realize the history of innovation and civic engagement of the surrounding community as inspiration for the next generation to develop innovative ways of making that can impact the neighborhood's future. Submissions are due December 21 and all participants must register by December 6. To register and for more information, please visit here.
'Your Text Here' Installation / Marcos Zotes/UNSTABLE
The 'Your Text Here' participatory, site-specific light installation challenges the condition of the city constantly telling us what to do, what to think, and how to act. Using explicit visual language, a multiplicity of billboards, signs, images and symbols invade our public spaces in order to tell us something. The project by Marcos Zotes/UNSTABLE aims at empowering local communities by providing a tool that transforms people voices into citizen proclamations the size of buildings. You just submit an anonymous text message in a website through your mobile phone, and in turn it is automatically projected at large scale onto the façade of a building.

'NAWT Balloons' Land Art Generator Initiative Competition Entry / Norman Kelley
Designed for the Land Art Generator Initiative competition, the 'NAWT Balloons' concept, which was recently shortlisted in the competition, aims to couple the image of an oversized helium-filled teardrop with a nuanced application of wind energy technology. While the balloon's image and subsequent geometry are the primitives to the proposal, the deployment on the Fresh Kills site ignites an interest in the oversized and the attenuated. Designed by Norman Kelley, through its multiplication and reconfiguration, this design may be able to produce new, yet familiar, collections of iconicity. More images and architects' description after the break.
'Solar Loop' Competition Entry / Paolo Venturella & MenoMenoPiu Architects
Designed by Paolo Venturella & MenoMenoPiu Architects, their 'Solar Loop' finalist entry for the Land Art Generator Initiative competition aims to expose more surface as possible to the southern solar rays. Sited in FreshKills Park in New York City, the shape comes directly from the solar diagrams, and deals easily with the sun following it with the best angle almost like a frozen artificial sunflower.bThe aesthetic of the sculpture is the result of this dialogue that becomes synthesis between the solar power and the park.

by Beeslo & Rusty
(inadvertently picked two old, bald men as their respective doctors)
In honor of the first official Fallout installment being released in almost a decade this week, Rusty and I have compiled a list of what we considered to be the best post-apocalyptic movies ever made, many of which were most likely inspirations for the Fallout series. This list turned into quite the beast where many deserving movies did not make the cut. As far as guidelines for what is to be considered a post-apocalyptic movie, we felt the word "post" was the one to concentrate on. Considering that a zombie outbreak is a pretty apocalyptic setting, most zombie movies wouldn't be considered a post-apocalyptic movie since you rarely see what happens afterward. So to be defined as post-apocalyptic, the audience needs to be given an idea to how society has responded and adapted to a particular type of apocalypse on a whole. Also, we mainly stuck to live action movies but we did delve into anime as well. Considering that practically 85% of anime is set in post-apocalyptic locations, we had to be pretty choosey to what we let through.
Honorable Mentions were:
- Omega Man
- Reign of Fire
- Akira
- Logan's Run
- Big-O
- Planet of the Apes

Fried Green Tomatoes
This is a great southern recipe that is delicious itself as an appetizer or as a surprise under a juicy burger. Turn it into its own sandwich altogether by layering it onto chewy pretzel bread or a flaky biscuit. Or, layer the fried green tomatoes with fresh citrus and some healthy greens. Top a fried gren tomato with sausage for the perfect spicy-meets-juicy flavor. Go crazy and, once the green tomatoes are fried, drizzle them with my Homemade Remoulade Sauce; it will surely impress.
cooking information
- Yield: 12-15 Individual Slices
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Cooking Time: 10 minutes
all ingredients
- 4 Green Tomatoes
- 1 Cups Flour
- 4 Eggs
- 2 Cups Yellow Cornmeal
- Salt/Pepper
- Vegetable Oil
recipe instruction
1. First, clean your green tomatoes. Slice the tomatoes into ½-inch-thick slices. (You don't want to slice them too thinly or they'll become mush once they are cooked.) Discard the core and the base of the tomatoes.
2. Next, season lightly both sides of the tomato slices with salt and pepper.
3. Create three stations for breading your tomatoes — one with flour, another with eggs whisked with a bit of water to thin them out, and another with cornmeal.
4. To a large saute pan, add enough oil to be about one inch up the sides of the pan. Preheat to medium-high heat.
5. When your oil is hot enough, dredge your tomatoes first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally in the cornmeal. Add immediately to the hot oil. (The oil should be high enough to completely surround the tomato.)
6. Flip the tomato after one minute or so of cooking to make sure it browns evenly. After both sides are browned, remove from the oil and let drain on paper towels.
7. Serve hot with remoulade sauce.
cooking tips
- Green tomatoes are important to this recipe because they are unripe tomatoes and can withstand the heat of the oil.
- The tomatoes can be sliced and seasoned beforehand but if you bread them too early the crust will become mushy and won't crisp us when fried.
- A great way to figure out if your oil is warm enough without a thermometer is to sprinkle a little cornmeal into the pan. If it floats to the top and begins cooking, the oil is ready; if the cornmeal sinks to the bottom right away, the oil isn't ready.
- When frying, the more you place in the pan the lower the temperature will get, so don't overcrowd the pan. Also, allow a couple more minutes for the second batch of slices as the temperature of the oil fluctuates with the movement in the pan. More than anything, stay on top of the tomatoes as they fry.
