The Bank of Mexico's interest rate cut earlier this month is likely the beginning of an easing cycle, analysts say after Wednesday's US Federal Open Markets Committee meeting
The US Federal Reserve's decision to continue quantitative easing at its current pace makes it more likely that the Bank of Mexico will cut rates at its next meeting, market analysts say.
Banxico surprised markets by cutting interest rates by 25 basis points at its meeting earlier this month. Rates in Mexico are at a historic low of 3.75%.
The chance of another rate cut at the October meeting "rose meaningfully" after another market surprise — the Fed's decision on Wednesday not to taper its $85 billion monthly QE program — Alberto Ramos, head of Latin America economics at Goldman Sachs, said in a note published Friday.
"We believe the domestic growth-inflation balance of risks supports another 25 basis point rate cut at the October 25 meeting, but we also acknowledge that global drivers and their potential impact on the Mexican peso and capital flows adds an extra layer of complexity and hawkish considerations to the decision on the optimal current monetary policy stance."
Minutes of Banxico's September meeting showed that two of the five directors did not support the rate cut. One opposed the decision on the grounds that it was better to assess the market reaction after the Fed's meeting.
"The post FOMC rally in emerging markets assets and the appreciation of the peso to the USD should have eased significantly the concerns of the dovish dissenting director that saw merit in cutting but wanted to wait to observe the market reaction to the FOMC meeting, and must also have dispelled some of the fears and concerns of the most hawkish dissenting director," said Ramos.
Analysts at Barclays took a similar view.
"After this decision was made, the very dovish statement allowed us to believe that this could be the beginning of an easing cycle and that another rate cut will be implemented in October 25," said Barclays analysts in a note released on Friday. "The minutes support this view."
Bank of Mexico governor Agustín Carstens told LatinFinance ahead of the rate cut that the country's strong fundamentals would help it withstand volatility in global markets.
Markets ignite
Elsewhere, the surprise move from the US Federal Reserve has jolted Latin America's capital markets into action.
Colombia issued Thursday a new benchmark bond, its first since a $1.6 billion sale in January. Brazilian development bank BNDES also joined in with a $2.5 billion deal including three and 10-year tranches. Both were increased in size from initial expectations. Pemex sold both global peso and dollar-denominated bonds.
The US dollar and bond yields dropped, while Latin markets soared on the news. Stock indices and currencies jumped across the region, where asset prices have suffered since May when the Fed first hinted at ending QE earlier.
US growth numbers were not strong enough for the Fed to begin unwinding the stimulus. And now, many don't see the developed markets able to exit stimulus for some time.
Central banks, including the US Federal Reserve, will be hard pressed to tighten policy in the near term, Pimco CEO Mohamed El Erian told LatinFinance.
Analysts expect emerging markets will be buoyed by the news at least until next month's Federal Open Markets Committee meeting, when the central bank will again consider tapering its bond buying program. LF

Linux Standard Base 3.2 Released
The Linux Foundation has released version 3.2 of Linux Standard Base (LSB) which promise improved support for Perl, Python, printers and multimedia.
The non-profit organization did not actually intend to tackle multimedia capabilities until version 4.0 of LSB. Due to the significance of multimedia for the desktop, the Linux Foundation now has at least trial use support for the ALSA sound system, and for the Portland project's xdg-utils. The other changes in LSB 3.2 are more or less on schedule: as agreed at the conference in November, the LSB team has improved printer support in collaboration with the OpenPrinting workgroup. LSB 3.2 now has complete support for the Perl and Python programming languages. This means that Perl and Python applications will run on most Linux platforms in the future, no matter whether they were specially coded for the operating system or for cross-platform deployment.
Another feature of LSB is trial use modules which replace the previous "optional" modules. The LSB team hopes to accelerate certification in future without forcing stakeholders to support module in the test phase. Various Freedesktop.org working group standards have been implemented in menu and icon design. The FreeType and Xrender font libraries are now supported.
LSB provides a common platform for application developers, giving them the ability to cater to multiple distributions of the Linux operating system with a single software package. Several Linux distributions certify their developments with LSB, including Debian, Novell, Red Hat, Ubuntu, Mandriva, and Xandros.
Linux Standard Base 3.2 specifications with test applications and developer tools are available now from the Linux Foundation website.

Berlin Blockbuster will closeSTAFF REPORT | February 18,2013Jeb Wallace-Brodeur / Staff Photo
Customers head for the Blockbuster video rental store in Berlin last week. The local branch of the national chain is closing.BERLIN The Blockbuster Video store on the Barre-Montpelier Road began liquidating its inventory recently and town officials say the store is expected to close for good by April 1.
The stores manager declined to comment and the companys corporate headquarters did not return phone calls. But Town Administrator Jeff Schulz said he learned of the scheduled closing date during a recent conversation involving the tax bill for the store that is located in a building it shares with Bond Auto Parts next to Kinney Drugs.
Used DVDs and games are being sold at cut-rate prices as part of the sale.
The closing of the Berlin store is presumably part of Blockbusters recently announced plan to close 300 of its 800 U.S. stores, laying off about 3,000 nationwide.MORE IN National / World BusinessDETROIT The holiday weekend was good to U.S. Full StoryDETROIT A judge ruled Tuesday that Detroit is eligible to shed billions of dollars of its...

BEFORE THE WAR, there was growing optimism over the collapse of communism and the opening of eastern Europe. Survivalist organizations were seen as outdated and unnecessary, and their memberships dwindled. Many of the remaining members were labeled crazy and were ridiculed.
Then the war came, vindicating their beliefs.
Now a small band of survivalists known as the Nova Direkto is making a move for dominance in northern Poland. To keep the neighboring warlord at bay, they have kidnapped five children from the warlord's camp in Kwidzyn and are holding them hostage in a medieval castle on the coast.
Can the PCs infiltrate Nova Direkfa's stronghold and free all the hostages successfully?

Diane became interested in Japanese gardens about 20 years ago because of the "wonderful feeling" she found in them. She wanted to create her own so she could feel that way every day. Her desire for deeper understanding led her to visit more than 80 gardens during four trips to Japan. Now, all she has to do is step out her back door for comfort.
"Whenever I've been troubled, I come here and get new insights," Diane says. "Some of my most joyful times have been during moments in my garden where I feel calm, protected."

"Sometimes God doesn't 'close a door and open a window.' Occasionally He slams the door on your fingers, and you're left with a throbbing pain, unsure of where you went wrong." ~Jeff Goins, Wrecked
I hate good byes. With a passion. Even the simplest goodbye – that of telling my roommate that I'm headed off to school or to work, causes a twinge of discomfort. You see, I'm an Army brat, and my father's 23 years' service caused my mother, two brothers, and me to live the typical nomadic life unique to military families. The pros of this lifestyle afforded me the mind-opening privilege of living all over the world and the United States. This lifestyle also infused me with the qualities of flexibility and adaptability, and now helps me to embrace and welcome change rather than resist it.
Alas, the perils of that nomadic lifestyle wielded a double-edged sword: I had to say "Good bye" so many times that I grew to despise the words. When I read Wrecked by Jeff Goins and contemplated how he defined the phenomenon, it wasn't hard for me to point out the times in my life that have wrecked me: Each of those times included a good-bye.
According to Jeff, "To be wrecked begins with an experience that pulls you out of your comfort zone and self-centeredness, whether you want it to or not." My first instance of being wrecked came with being the first to recognize the onset of Alzheimer's in my beloved maternal grandmother. Former First Lady Nancy Reagan aptly called Alzheimer's "the long goodbye."
I watched my grandmother slip away before my very eyes. Eventually, her only response became the ghost of a smile that would dance over her lips when we read Bible passages to her or sang hymns. Physically present, her mind said good-bye seven years before her frail body was laid to rest.
Later, I was wrecked by the shame, fright, anger, and despair I saw in the eyes of a friend whose perky, cheerleading 17-year old daughter was raped on prom night. As if the rape wasn't devastating enough, my friend learned that this single, horrific act left her daughter impregnated – and infected with herpes and HIV. We had to say good-bye to her daughter's innocence, and the clean, trouble-free slate that had once been her daughter's future.
I was wrecked by the grief and despair I saw in the eyes of another best friend and her family, and in the eyes of my pastor and his family, each of whom lost strong, stalwart sons, 16 and 26, respectively. My girlfriend's son was killed in a car accident on the 4th of July; the life of my pastor's son was snuffed out in a motorcycle accident by a careless motorist who abruptly and fatally decided to make a quick turn – even though she knew she was in the wrong lane. These were two painful, unexpected, heart-wrenching good byes that turn the believers' world – and our faith – upside down and leave no room for pat, easy answers.
I was wrecked again when my pastor-husband, after preaching a Sunday morning sermon and praying over souls at the altar, suffered a massive heart attack that wrenched him away from me, his children, and his loving congregation. I was on an airplane when it happened, winging my way to a women's convention California. I didn't know that my kiss good-bye to him early that morning would also be our last.
Wrecked is a book I took in very slowly. I had to take my time to read it because so much of it provoked and challenged me. Musing on my wrecked experiences caused periods of deep reflection that were accompanied by tears. Jeff writes, "In our grief, we find purpose. In suffering, we find significance." I came to understand this as I tried to alleviate the pain and suffering caused by these and other good byes. I cannot reverse them; instead, I have held grief-stricken people in my arms as they cried, and cried with them. I have listened mutely, yet with understanding, as they railed against life and even railed against God. I have not insulted them – or God – by offering religious or pseudo-spiritual answers. Instead, I refuse to shrink away from them or from the pain, because I recognize that "If [I am] going to change something. . . I have to "enter into the brokenness and experience some of the pain therein."
I'd like to believe that my relationship with good byes is designed by God, because my feelings about good byes have made me uniquely suited to pray and intercede for those whose hearts are broken by them. By God's grace, I allow good byes to wreck me because by doing so, I'm enabled to say the good-bye to self that is so necessary to allow the healing love of Christ to flow through me. These are the good byes that wreck me, and I have no choice.

Type: Improvement
Status: Open
Priority: Major
Resolution: Unresolved
Affects Version/s: 1.1
Fix Version/s: None
Environment:Windows, Maven 2.0.9
Number of attachments :
I'm using an ant task (provided by Weblogic) that generates classes and compiles them with the tools.jar from the JDK.
This task doesn't allow to specify neither source or target version for the compiler.
So, the generated classes are compiled against the currently running JVM, using its rt.jar and the tools.jar provided in plugin dependencies (or placed in the lib/ext directory of the jvm).
As Maven is executed in a 1.5 JVM (1.5 is needed for some modules in my project), these classes are compiled in 1.5.
The server where I want to deploy them is running on a 1.4 JVM, so the generated classes can't run in this server.
I couldn't find a way to tell antrun to compile my classes using a different java version.
I tried the following workarounds :
- change the tools.jar dependency to point to a 1.4 version => as the compiler uses the rt.jar from the currently running 1.5 JVM, the class file version doesn't match (version 49.0, expecting 48.0)
- add a dependency to a 1.4 rt.jar => it doesn't change anything, as the rt.jar should be specified in the boot classpath.
The possible solutions would be :
- allow antrun to fork ant process to a different jvm
- allow antrun to override the boot classpath

This odd film was shot in 1967 but wasn't released until 1991. The reality of the production is quite amazing. The director, who up until then had only filmed documentaries, decided that he wanted to provoke his actors and crew beyond their level of tolerance so that they would in some fashion hijack his production. Ostensibly, they are filming an arty story called "Over the Cliff," which shows the same scene of a split between husband and wife as played by five different couples from a variety of different angles. Eventually the (secretly anticipated) revolt does happen, and the cast and crew film their late-night sessions in which they discuss what can be done to save the movie. Their uncensored and quite intelligent comments were then included in the completed film along with the footage of the continuing saga of the endlessly filmed marital break-up. While the set-up is nothing like that of the contemporaneous television show Candid Camera, reviewers professed discomfort in viewing the cold manipulations which led to the desired result. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Characterized as a "fictionalized documentary" by the producer, this bizarre experimental drama is the story of three days in the life of a highly charged and successful Long Island insurance salesman who takes a filmmaker to Las Vegas. Though the protagonists really are a salesman and a director, the line between reality and fiction is hopelessly blurred as the story unfolds. . . The brash, loud and supremely confidant salesman shmoozes his clients in a way that is a game for him. He uses his powers of persuasion to acquire more and more sales. He and his cronies drink and feast over their success before embarking on the Las Vegas convention. The company even goes so far as to provide women for the married men, rewarding their career successes with amoral excesses in this film that concludes with a dream sequence on a beach. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi

In this suspense drama, a lawyer finds out more than she wanted to know about her friends and lovers. T.K. Katwuller (Barbara Hershey) is a lawyer with a firm command of her career but an unstable hold on her private life; she's more single than she'd like to be, and she's become romantically involved with one of her clients, Steven Seldes (J.T. Walsh), a real estate agent. When T.K. bumps into her college roommate Ellie (Mary Beth Hurt), she discovers that Ellie is Steven's wife, which T.K. hardly regards as welcome news. T.K. then learns that Steven has been accused of financing porn movies dominated by underage actors; after an angry confrontation, she bitterly breaks off the affair. The next day, Steven turns up murdered, and T.K. discovers that Ellie is the prime suspect. She agrees to handle Ellie's case, and Ellie is acquitted. However, T.K.'s conversations with police detective George Beutel (Sam Shepard) begin to plant a seed of doubt in her mind about Ellie's innocence. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck co-scripted and star in this drama, set in Boston and Cambridge, about rebellious 20-year-old MIT janitor Will Hunting (Damon), gifted with a photographic memory, who hangs out with his South Boston bar buddies, his best friend Chuckie (Affleck), and his affluent British girlfriend Skylar (Minnie Driver). After MIT professor Lambeau (Stellan Skarsgard) stumps students with a challenging math formula on a hallway blackboard, Will anonymously leaves the correct solution, prompting Lambeau to track the elusive young genius. As Will's problems with the police escalate, Lambeau offers an out, but with two conditions -- visits to a therapist and weekly math sessions. Will agrees to the latter but refuses to cooperate with a succession of therapists. Lambeau then contacts his former classmate, therapist Sean McGuire (Robin Williams), an instructor at Bunker Hill Community College. Both are equally stubborn, but Will is finally forced to deal with both his past and his future. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

Would you believe that the last living descendent of Jesus Christ is a woman working at an abortion clinic in Illinois? And that she's been sent on a holy mission with two minor characters from Clerks and Mallrats as her guides? Prepare to suspend any and all disbelief as you watch the religious satire Dogma, the fourth film from writer/director Kevin Smith. Bethany (Linda Fiorentino) has been disappointed in life and has found her faith severely tested after her husband leaves her when she discovers she cannot have children. So Bethany is all the more puzzled when she's approached by Metatron (Alan Rickman), a grumpy angel. Metatron wants her to help him stop Bartleby (Ben Affleck) and Loki (Matt Damon), two fallen angels who were ejected from paradise, have escaped from exile and are heading to New Jersey. If they are able to pass through the arc of a certain church, it will prove God is fallible and the world will come to a swift end. Bethany has no idea what to do or why she's been given this project, but she heads out anyway, with her assigned assistants Jay (Jason Mewes), an appallingly rude former dope dealer and self-styled ladies man, and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith). Along the way, Bethany picks up more helpers, including a celestial muse named Serendipity (Salma Hayek) and Rufus (Chris Rock), who claims to have been the 13th apostle and that Jesus owes him 12 dollars. Boasting a huge supporting cast -- including George Carlin, Jason Lee, Janeane Garofalo, Bud Cort, and Alanis Morissette (as God) -- Dogma proved to be highly controversial even before its release. Miramax Pictures, owned by Disney, financed the film, but several weeks before Dogma's world premier at the Cannes Film Festival, they announced they would not release the picture and intended to sell it to another distributor (which would turn out to be Lions Gate Films). Director Smith, however, has always contended that Dogma is a film about the importance of faith, if not organized religion. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Heather Graham stars in this indie exploration of love and marital commitment directed by Lisa Krueger. A hardcore believer in the sanctity of marriage, plucky Joline (Graham) is stunned when her husband Carl (Luke Wilson) abruptly dumps her, leaving only a vaguely-worded note to explain himself. Undaunted, Joline leaves New York to look for her man and discovers him in the wild west of El Paso, Texas, after meeting a bevy of ne'er-do-wells and weirdos along the way. She discovers that Carl is shacked up with a beautiful Hispanic woman named Carmen (Patricia Velasquez). Meanwhile, Joline's flirtatious brother Jay (Casey Affleck) shows up from the Big Apple to look after his sister. Later, two men enter Joline's life. One is Neil (Goran Visnjic), Carl's hunky, beguiling neighbor, who increasingly becomes the object of Joline's affection, and Grampy (Alfonso Arau), an aging Mexican medicine man who becomes Joline's spiritual guide. This film was screened at the 2000 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

The longer Leo works in the yards, the more he realizes that his uncle controls a corrupt underworld where graft, violent reprisals, and even death are just part of the job.

Director Billy Bob Thornton explores coming of age in this Western based on Cormac McCarthy's prize-winning novel of the same name. John Grady Cole (Matt Damon) and Lacey Rawlins (Henry Thomas) are young Texan men who seek a more fulfilling life as cowboys in the slowly fading Old West, circa 1949. One night, the duo head for Mexico in hope of finding some adventure and employment, and along the way run into Blevins (Lucas Black), an even younger drifter who has supposedly stolen a horse from private property. Begrudgingly, Cole and Rawlins take him under their wing before they eventually find themselves in Mexico, working for a wealthy landowner (Ruben Blades). His stalwart and beautiful daughter Alejandra (Penelope Cruz) develops a romantic interest in Cole, which threatens the friendship between him and Rawlins, not to mention their living quarters, where Alejandra's watchful aunt (Miriam Colon) warns Cole that she has professed allegiance to her. Cole and Rawlins' thrill-seeking adventures with Blevins and the stolen horse catch up to them, however, and they are held prisoners in a brutal penitentiary, where their cowboy instincts are put to the ultimate test. Cole, meanwhile, wants nothing more than to get back to Alejandra and resume their love affair. The film also features Bruce Dern in a small role as a judge who eventually gives much-desired guidance to Cole. ~ Jason Clark, Rovi

Country singer Dwight Yoakam is a co-producer of this Miramax comedy about marital infidelity among the Southern redneck set. Auto dealer Lonnie Earl (Billy Bob Thornton) and his wife, Darlene (Natasha Richardson), are best friends with good-natured Roy (Patrick Swayze) and his spitfire wife, Candy (Charlize Theron), who's ovulating and trying to become pregnant. When the quartet of Arkansas natives decides to take an SUV cross-country to a monster truck show in Reno, NV, an alarming secret is revealed: Lonnie Earl and Candy have been having an affair. The revelation comes as a shock to the guileless Roy and much put-upon Darlene, who absconds with her husband's credit cards for a spending spree that includes designer boutiques and a Tony Orlando concert. Meanwhile, Candy's quest to have a baby takes on a new dimension in light of her extracurricular activities with Lonnie Earl. Waking Up in Reno (2002) is based on a script by longtime screenwriting partners/actors Brent Briscoe and Mark Fauser, who also play supporting roles in the film. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

The frequently recurring title characters, employed by writer and director Kevin Smith as supporting players in several of his films, are put to rest with this comedy that focuses on them exclusively. Jay (Jason Mews) and Silent Bob (Smith) are a pair of stoned New Jersey slackers who have long been used as the templates for a pair of popular comic book heroes, Bluntman and Chronic. When they learn that their alter egos are to be turned into a major motion picture without their consent or compensation, the pair sets off for Hollywood to sabotage the production. Along the way, they encounter an ape, a nun (Carrie Fisher), the cast of Scooby-Doo, a Charlie's Angels-style band of sexy women who use them as stool pigeons in a diamond heist, and an unhinged wildlife ranger (Will Ferrell). They also meet up with some regulars from the Smith canon, including Alyssa Jones (Joey Lauren Adams), Brian O'Halloran as Dante Hicks, Jason Lee as Banky Edwards, Alanis Morissette as God, and actors Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in dual roles as themselves and two other familiar characters. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back co-stars numerous other recognizable performers in roles of various sizes, including Shannen Doherty, Jason Biggs, James Van Der Beek, Shannon Elizabeth, Tracy Morgan, Judd Nelson, Chris Rock, and George Carlin, among others. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

Billy Bob Thornton wrote, directed, and starred in this serio-comic look at the trials (literally and figuratively) of an eccentric Arkansas family. Struggling musician Claude (Thornton) and his wife Ruby (Laura Dern) get the news that Claude's uncle Hazel (Jim Varney) has been accused of murder and is in jail awaiting trial. Claude and Ruby head for the Alabama town where they grew up, and, before long, there's a friendly (and sometimes not-so-friendly) war of words among the factions of the family, including Claude's mother Jewel (Diane Ladd), father O.T. (Andy Griffith), and sister Rose (Kelly Preston). Daddy and Them's supporting cast includes Jamie Lee Curtis and Ben Affleck as a pair of married attorneys, Brenda Blethyn as Hazel's wife Julia, and Jeff Bailey, and John Prine as Claude's brothers. While Daddy and Them was shot in 1999 -- and would have been his first directorial effort after his breakthough hit Sling Blade -- the film stayed in the editing room for several years, and wasn't released until after his third feature, All The Pretty Horses. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Chuck Barris is best known to most Americans as the guy who used to host The Gong Show. He was also the creator and producer of The Dating Game, The Newlywed Game, and a handful of other successful game shows in the 1960s and 1970s. But was he
a hired killer working with the CIA? That's the take-it-or-leave-it premise of Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, based on the memoir of the same name by Chuck Barris. Barris (Sam Rockwell) grows up dreaming of success in show biz and winning the hearts of beautiful women, but early on, he meets with plenty of resistance from both women and the television industry, despite writing the hit tune "Palisades Park" and scoring a job with Dick Clark on American Bandstand. The 1960s proves more fortunate for Barris; he meets the love of his life, Penny (Drew Barrymore), and sells ABC on the idea of The Dating Game. However, after the show has made him wealthy and successful, Barris is approached by the mysterious Jim Byrd (George Clooney), a CIA agent who wants to recruit Barris as a covert operative. Barris finds the notion of playing spy games intriguing and agrees, but soon discovers what Byrd and his partners really want is for Barris to assassinate uncooperative figures around the world. Soon, Barris finds that his life has been all but taken over by Byrd and another CIA agent, the mysterious and sexy Patricia (Julia Roberts). As he hops the globe, killing people in the name of American security (using his status as a Dating Game chaperone as a cover), Barris learns that the KGB has discovered his not-so-little secret and that his own life is in great danger. Confessions of a Dangerous Mind marked the directorial debut of actor George Clooney, working from a screenplay adapted by Charlie Kaufman from Barris' book. Dick Clark, Dating Game host Jim Lange, frequent Gong Show panelist Jaye P. Morgan, and Gene Gene Patton appear as themselves. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Writer and director Kevin Smith embraces his warm and fuzzy side with this comedy drama about a man who learns a lot about life and love in the wake of a personal tragedy. Ollie Trinke (Ben Affleck) is a guy who seemingly has it made -- he has a great job as a music publicist with a major Manhattan public relations firm, and he's madly in love with his wife, Gertrude (Jennifer Lopez). Ollie is very much excited about the fact he and Gertrude are soon to become parents, but Ollie's joy turns to despair when Gertrude dies in childbirth. Emotionally shattered, Ollie isn't sure what to do next, and he and his newborn daughter, Gertie, soon move to New Jersey to live with his father, Bart (George Carlin), who grows tired of playing babysitter after several months. Juggling his career with single parenthood proves to be more than Ollie can manage, and one day he's fired after he bungles a major press event. Unable to find work, Ollie eventually takes a dead-end job in New Jersey's public works department, and devotes himself to his daughter as he retreats from his own life. But after frequent visits to the local video store, he strikes up a friendship with Maya (Liv Tyler), a pretty girl who works behind the counter. As Ollie finally begins to come out of his shell, he's offered a chance to move back into the music industry, but he realizes that would mean moving back to Manhattan -- and Gertie (Raquel Castro), now seven years old, makes it clear she doesn't want to go. Jersey Girl also features cameo performances from Kevin Smith regulars Jason Lee and Matt Damon, and significantly is Smith's first feature not to include Jason Mewes and Smith himself as stoner archetypes Jay and Silent Bob. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The problem doesn't end there, however; LaRoche soon unveils both his certainty that the couple avoided calling the police, and -- more troublingly -- his possession of Charles' personal information. When he makes the ill-advised attempt to blackmail the couple, Charles turns to a rough-cut friend from his workplace, who offers to help out -- for a small commission.Derailed was the first American project for Swedish filmmaker Mikael Håfström. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take 2 1/2
In 1968, avant-garde filmmaker William Greaves completed his famous Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One. This experimental feature - a hybrid of fiction and documentary - broke new ground with its dual narrative; on one level, it told of a couple enduring and suffering through a nasty breakup, while on another, it depicted Greaves, as a "version" of himself ("the director") eking out a manipulative and underhanded agenda during a screen test in New York's Central Park. Greaves's sequel to that cinema vérite masterpiece, Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take 2 1/2, both reprises and expounds upon some of the events and themes of the first film, as the same two lovers (an interracial couple, in fact) return to the screen for a 2003 shoot, along with one of the crew members from the 1968 film. The paramours continue to bicker, but again, this only represents one level; on another, the film comments on the filmmaking process by revealing the selective way in which the crew determines what the audience sees and focuses on, thus providing a "running commentary" on the action. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

One day, the brothers arrive in a town and offer to help its people drive away evil spirits, unaware that the community is bordered by a genuine enchanted forest, and that young girls in the village have been disappearing at a frightful rate. The Grimm Brothers must now learn how to deal with real magic, with the help of the lovely but fearless Angelika (Lena Headey).

John Dahl directed this war drama based on the true story of one of the most daring military actions of World War II. In the waning days of World War II, General Douglas MacArthur chose to make good on a pledge that he made in 1942 -- that he would return to the Philippines after he and his troops were forced to retreat. However, MacArthur's determination was more than a matter of pride. Over 500 American soldiers were being held in Cabanatuan, a notoriously brutal prisoner of war camp in the Philippines operated by the Japanese army, and MacArthur wanted to see to it that they made it home. MacArthur chose Lt. Col. Henry Mucci (Benjamin Bratt) to lead the Sixth Ranger Battalion on a mission 30 miles behind enemy lines to infiltrate Cabanatuan and liberate the American prisoners. With the help of Capt. Prince (James Franco), Mucci leads his men on a life-or-death raid against forces known for their savagery. The Great Raid was based on William B. Breuer's book The Great Raid on Cabanatuan: Rescuing the Doomed Ghosts of Bataan and Corregidor, and also stars Joseph Fiennes, Connie Nielsen, and Marton Csokas. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Austin), race to find a home for their loyal dog Friday. Fortunately for Friday, there's an abandoned hotel just around the corner, and Bruce possesses just the kind of mechanical smarts needed to transform the rundown inn into a four-star retreat for canines.

Dec 17, 2013'Like father like son' The Idea was good to bring John Mclane's Son in the movie, but it lacked story and I was completely disappointed. The movie sure did Died Hard.
Overall 3/10
Acting 5/10
Storyline 2/10 -
Nov 4, 2013This was horrible. I've not seen any of the previous Die Hard films, but I can tell you that "A Good Day to Die Hard" is simply not good. The whole movie is filled with loud, noisy and underplotted storytelling.
Oct 27, 2013One of the most stupidest movie ever made! Amount of mistakes made in this movie is way above of any reasonable limit. Its even more offensively that it was another part of a good sequel, it wasn't McClane, it was Bruce Willis acting some guy in absurd universe.
Oct 12, 2013If you watch it with friends (like I did) then it's hilarious but otherwise it's a piece of crap and shouldn't be viewed by anyone for any reason. Should've been called Fail Hard (sorry I couldn't resist)
Oct 8, 2013Another action movie franchise based on overexploited. Bruce Willis is in his role, it is not surprising. The only surprise is how well he is for his age he has.
Aug 13, 2013Unnecessarily vulgar. The script was lacking in variety and frankly, childish. A bad script ultimately leads to poor acting. With big names and a promising promo, this film really let its audience down.
Aug 12, 2013
Aug 3, 2013Perhaps a better title for this senseless, loud, ridiculous, and tediously preposterous action droll would've been 'A Good Day to Not Go to the Movies.'
Jul 29, 2013this is why mclane son was never really shown in the other films.predictable sad and missing life. watch it it is wasteful how many minutes they waste on cliches if u get the feeling of deja vu well im with u man this is a movie ill waste 5 dollars for just to hear the commentary. sad so sad
Jul 21, 2013
Jul 14, 2013
Jul 2, 2013Far and away the worst die hard movie. The plot is nonsensical, the twists are contrived, and the script seems like it was written by a 12-year-old. This movie is unwatchably bad, even if you're only in it for the action scenes.
Jun 21, 2013A disappointment in every level imaginable. It reminded me of the other film Willis made with another on screen son 'Cold Light of Day' only worse. A good day to call it a day.
Jun 4, 2013I watched this on premiere in Belgrade... I'm pretty big fan of Mr. Willis and Die Hard genre... But i must say that this was one of the worst movies EVER! I mean.. maybe i'm too judgemental cause i really like Die Hard and this was bad No story.. no nothing... Whole movie is created around few lines like "Oh my God" or "I'm on vacation" etc...
Anyhow.. big big disappointment -
May 28, 2013
May 19, 2013A Good Day to Die Hard is a colossal disappointment. Fans of the franchise would surely agree that the fifth entry in this action-packed series pissed all over its four outstanding predecessors out of it's sheer awfulness.
May 6, 2013They should just stop making die hard movies. Each one seems to be worse than the one before it. I almost fell asleep in the middle of it. Can you imagine that...bruce willis movie..die hard...and i am almost sleeping in the middle of it...just save yourself some time and stay away from it
Apr 29, 2013

Apr 23, 2013
Apr 10, 2013Action, Action, Action... fun movie nothing unexpected and sort of predictable, yet entertaining. I can truly say that John McClane is living up to the title... This series has yet to Die, hence its title DIE HARD.
Apr 2, 2013
Mar 20, 2013I wanted so hard to be able to say that I LOVE this one. However, the only thing I do love is the son. The face, the smile, the figure.^-^ What has happened, the fun is still there and the action... They just managed to make 98mins like forever. It just never stop. Die Hard? However about just stop and breath for once.
Mar 19, 2013If you dont want to catch cancer, dont watch this movie. It is like watching 2 girls 1 cup 90 minutes and paying for it. But if you you want to hear non stop John Macklane moaning that he is on vacation see "radiation neutralizator" in action ,roadtrip from Moscow to Pripyat in one evening, unnecessary 30 minutes car chase, evil protagonist and neutral antagonist go ahead and watch it.
Mar 9, 2013Director John Moore does what no man can do kill John McClane. The script is horrible, you don't care about one of these characters including McClane, and the CGI action scenes are just a waste of time.
Mar 8, 2013
Mar 6, 2013A Good Day to Die Hard suffers from a slew of problems. Poor pacing, poor camera work at times, a weak dynamic between the two main protagonists, a b-movie plot, and at the end of the day it just simply didn't feel like a Die Hard movie.
Mar 3, 2013Wow this movie stunk compared to the other ones. The acting was awful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially Jai Courtney's acting. Not to mention how corny it is. The stupid storyline was one of the biggest problems though.
Mar 3, 2013Unmitigated garbage. This movie begins with a 20-minute chase scene that lacks a reason, then it goes steeply downhill. I liked the first few Die Hards, which had memorable villains and a McClane whose character hadn't yet become a cliche, but if this one puts the franchise out of its misery it'll be better for us all.
Mar 2, 2013
The entire enterprise is a bewildering mess, put in place only to frustrate and alienate anyone who buys a ticket. Every action scene is telegraphed, and most of the dialogue is irrevocably stupid.
I hesitate to ask, but did anyone actually tell McClane, before he arrived, that the Cold War is over?
For anyone who remembers the "Die Hard" adventures at their vital and exciting best, this film feels like a near-death experience.

A young girl becomes her brothers' sex toy, and learns that two cocks are better than one.
So, there I was, only sixteen and having sex with my brother. It wasn't long before I was sneaking into Tommy's room every night. We would cuddle in the dark under the sheets, then he would tongue kiss me, and work his fingers into my pussy until I was hot. After I came, I would go down on him and get my mouthful of salty thick cum. On one particular night, I heard his shower running....Read On

Ok, it has been over a month now since the incident with my mum. Incident! What the fuck am I talking about, It was the best fucking sexual experience of my life so far! Things had returned to pretty much normal at home.

I have a sister 2 years older than me, and there's always been occasional sexual tension between us. It came and went over the years and didn't amount to anything significant, and dissipated as we entered our late teens and I became interested in girls and she got a boyfriend or two. However, it never truly went away completely and was lurking dormant in the background, until one night that...Read On

The secret is discovered by someone
It was the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and both of my kids were coming home today. My 25 yr old son and 19 yr old daughter had not been home from college in a couple of months and I missed them both. I especially missed my son's big cock and as I stood in the kitchen preparing food for tomorrow, that was all I could think about. Even though we had been having sex for the last 7 yrs every...Read On

I fuck my aunt in her barren room the day before she has to move to her new house.
I arrived at my aunt's Friday evening. I had been sent here by my mother to help my aunt move into her new house. My aunt is the mother of three girls and she is no longer married. So I wasn't surprised when she asked my mother if she could borrow me for the weekend. I being 18 and pretty strong was perfect for the task. She wanted me to help her move some of her heavier items.

Inhibitions give way under the merriment and mistletoe.
Hey, I'm Corey and I'm in my final year of uni. As we all know, college is great. It's been sex (if your lucky like me), partying, and more sex these past 4 years. And yet the most erotic experience of my life by a long shot, was with my mother. My caring, erratic, devilishly seductive mother. Picture this: a buxom brunette, 37 years old, with perfect smooth tanned skin and big, loving...Read On

Mom watches me masturbate
I was sitting at one end of the couch in the family room, looking at my iPad, with my hand down my shorts. Not actually masturbating, but not not masturbating either. The TV was showing baseball, but I wasn't really paying much attention to it. I was dressed as I usually was for hanging around the house - just an old pair of gym shorts, commando.

Hi, my name is Robert Morgan and have I got a story to tell you. This whole thing seems so surreal that I still don't believe it happened myself.

Cecilia was only 12 at the time and at a very confusing and emotional age. Not only was...Read On

A father and daughter play a very interesting game.
I guess you could say everything that happened was my older brother's fault. In April of 2010, my then 18-year old brother got his girlfriend pregnant. Instead of going to college like he was supposed to, he went and joined the army. Three months later, he shipped off to basic training. That same month I turned sixteen. For my birthday, he gave me his MacBook; the same one my parents gave...Read On

Bowsers Dutchie Dog Bed
Great Bed! MYKA from ATLANTA, GA– Verified Buyer Great bed. Dog loves it. Only problem was that the color was significantly darker than it looked online. I ordered the Pumpkin and it's definitely more brick colored than pumpkin. |
Dutchie Dog Bed Anne from Grand Haven, MI– Verified Buyer Our puppy loves his new doggie bed. He prefers it over our king-size bed, which is a big win for us :). |
Great big, beautiful and comfortable dog bed. Joel Andres from Montreal, Quebec Great big, beautiful and comfortable dog bed. Only con about it is that light colored fabrics show the dirt fast and where the heavy concentration of dirt is. |
Plush and Comfy Brenda from OR– Verified Buyer– Top 50 Reviewer I love that the covers unzip and are so easy to wash. |
Dog Bed a HIT! Dale Newman from Sicklerville, NJ– Verified Buyer All 4 dogs (approx. 70lbs.) love this bed, I have 3 rescues and my neighbors big pointer mix don't miss a chance lay down and snuggle on it. Its very well made . |
My opinion margo from SAINT CLOUD, MN– Verified Buyer In my opinion the fabric on this bed is just great. Very good quality materials used. However it is over stuffed and does not allow enough depth . It looks good on the picture,but when I got it Iremoved the pillow out of the casing and I restuffed the case. |
Awesome price! Lori from Barberton, OH– Verified Buyer Love Dutchie beds and this is the cheapest place I found them. It was 20.00 cheaper than were I normally buy my Dutchie beds. My pup is a happy girl on her new bed! |
Bowser Dutchie Dog Bed Ferncastle from Ladysmith, Vancouver Island, BC– Verified Buyer A well made bed that our dogs love. Milano colour wasn't quite as I expected from the on-line photo (more yellow than beige). |
An absolutely first-rate pet bed Blueberry from Seattle– Verified Buyer There is absolutely nothing about this particular bed that I would change, except, or course, that it would be great if the price of it was less than it is. But even at the price I paid for it, if I had to purchase another pet bed of this size, this is the one I would purchase. |
Gorgeous dog bed!!! kiwimarie from orange county, ca This bed is not only gorgeous, it is incredibly well made and washes beautifully! Our pomeranian and min pin love these fauna beds. And to top it off, the beautiful and elegant print looks fabulous in our apartment, unlike most dog beds that look ratty and clash with decor. If you want a bed that will last a life time and look brand new, this is the bed for you! This is an investment that will pay off! |

SERGEI KHRUSHCHEV: "It was very similar to feeling among Americans when [Yuri] Gagarin went into orbit. Some of them tried to ignore it, some of them were insulted."

The Cold War between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. formed the backdrop of the Apollo program, as the two superpowers jockeyed for preeminence in space. Under premier Nikita Khrushchev, the Soviet Union had succeeded in launching Sputnik 1, the first artificial satellite, and sending the first man into orbit.
Reeling from a succession of Soviet space firsts, President John F. Kennedy promised that the U.S. would be first to send humans to the moon and return them to Earth before the end of the 1960s. On July 20, 1969, that promise came true as Americans claimed victory when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon, witnessed by some 500 million television viewers on Earth.
Sergei Khrushchev, Nikita's son, recently looked back and remembered what it felt like to be on the Soviet side. (These days, Khrushchev, 74, is a fellow at Brown University's Watson Institute for International Studies in Providence, R.I., where he spoke in his office, surrounded by Soviet memorabilia.)
[An edited transcript of the interview follows.]
Where were you when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon?
I remember the moon landing very well. I was 34. I was on vacation with my friends, most of whom worked at the Chelomei design bureau. There was also an officer from the KGB. We were in Ukraine, in Chernobyl. It was exactly the place where they later built the [infamous] nuclear power station. The KGB officer had just returned from Africa, and he had brought a small telescope. So we looked through the telescope, but we didn't see any moon landing! So it was still questionable to us! [laughs]
How widely was the news of the moon landing disseminated in the Soviet Union in advance of the event?
Of course, you cannot have people land on the moon and just say nothing. It was published in all the newspapers. But if you remember [back then] when Americans spoke of the first man in space, they were always talking of "the first American in space" [not Yuri Gagarin]. The same feeling was prevalent in Russia. There were small articles when Apollo 11 was launched. Actually, there was a small article on the first page of Pravda and then three columns on page five. I looked it up again.

text: Home Culture Oprah Winfrey's Words for Spelman Grads In her commencement address, she told graduates they "must have some vision" for their lives. By: Aisha I. Jefferson Posted: May 20 2012 7:28 PM 0 Getty Images (The Root) -- For people who never attended The Oprah Winfrey Show during its 25 years on the air, witnessing the media mogul deliver Spelman College's commencement speech on Sunday was the next best thing. A thunderous applause rippled through the hall as Winfrey approached the podium to address the college's 550 graduates and ceremony attendees at the Georgia International Convention Center in College Park, Ga., just outside of Atlanta. Winfrey, who reminded the female class that "your crown has been paid for [and to] put it on your head and wear it," stressed three pieces of advice she felt would be valuable to the Class of 2012: Know who you are and what you want; find a way to serve; and always do the right thing. "You must have some vision for your life. Even if you don't know the plan, you have to have a direction in which you choose to go," Winfrey said. "What I learned is that that's a great metaphor for life. You want to be in the driver's seat of your own life because if you are not, life will drive you." Winfrey quoted the likes of Langston Hughes, Isaac Newton, Martin Luther King Jr., Sterling Brown and Maya Angelou during her address. First lady Michelle Obama delivered Spelman's commencement address last year. Winfrey, a graduate of Tennessee State University, an HBCU, has had a long relationship with the Atlanta University Center (AUC), which consists of Spelman, Morehouse College, Clark Atlanta University and Morris Brown College. She received an honorary doctorate from Spelman in 1993, and this year, in addition to delivering the commencement address, received the institution's National Community Service Award. In 1989, Winfrey gave the commencement address at Morehouse College -- where she proclaimed that she wanted to do more to educate black men -- and since has donated $12 million to the school, making her the institution's top donor. Through the Oprah Winfrey Scholarship, more than 400 Morehouse students have benefited from Winfrey's philanthropy, with 300 of them participating in a moving ceremony during the penultimate The Oprah Winfrey Show episode that aired last year. Winfrey's AUC relationship continues as three students from the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls in South Africa will attend Spelman in the fall as part of the Class of 2016. "My cousin actually worked with them so she knows them and she's actually very excited for them. I know that they're going to have a wonderful time," Spelman graduate Janelle Duckett, who received a psychology degree Sunday and will now head to Brooklyn, N.Y., to teach first-grade math and reading at an all-girls charter school, told The Root. "I feel that a lot of the values that they learned at Oprah's school are going to transition into Spelman. I'm happy that Oprah is here to see it happen." Duckett's cousin, fellow Spelman graduate Zuri Ray-Alladice, recently completed a drama internship teaching acting techniques to students at Winfrey's school in South Africa. Spelman also bestowed honorary degrees during Sunday's ceremony to public health advocate Dazon Dixon Diallo and actress, playwright and educator Anna Deavere Smith. Actress LaTonya Richardson Jackson, wife of Samuel L. Jackson and Spelman alumna, received an honorary degree earlier in the year and attended the graduation.
