Acción Mutante
Waging war against all things glamorous and beautiful, crippled terrorists Accion Mutante plot a series of attacks on society's elite, gaining a fearsome reputation before their activities are stalled with the jailing of their leader and mastermind, Ramon. Soon reunited with their newly released leader, Accion Mutante plots the elaborate wedding reception kidnapping of Patricia, a wealthy socialite. Though many die in the botched kidnapping, the gang gets away with Patricia and jumps aboard their spaceship, destined for a distant planet and a healthy ransom. Celebration is short-lived as greed kicks in and Ramon plants the seeds of distrust among his fellow mutants shortly after take-off. With all of the mutants gone sans a vengeful Siamese twin (or at least half of him), Ramon takes his cash cow to the pay-off site, though a curious case of the Stockholm syndrome has thrown an unexpected wrench into Ramon's devious plan. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Fifteen-year-old CIA operative Cody Banks (played by Malcolm in the Middle star Frankie Muniz) is back in action in this comedy adventure, which sends the youthful secret agent to Old Blighty. Banks returns to Kamp Woody, the CIA training center disguised as a summer camp, where he's given a new partner, the bumbling but sharp-witted Derek (Anthony Anderson), and a new assignment, to track down a sinister double-agent who has made off with an experimental mind-control machine. The villain has made his way to Great Britain, so Banks is enrolled in an upscale private school in England, where he's forced to join the school band despite his lack of musical talent and finds himself working alongside Emily (Hannah Spearritt), a fellow teenage espionage agent. Keith David, Daniel Roebuck, and Cynthia Stevenson all return from the first film, while British filmmaker Kevin Allen takes over as director. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A cop sets out to find a man who has been delivering too much of a good thing in this offbeat comedy. Police detective Martinez (Jesus Ochoa) has been handed a most unusual case -- a number of local prostitutes have been murdered, and it's up to Martinez to bring in the killer. What makes the case truly unusual, though, is the manner of death; it seems the hookers all died as a result of having orgasms so powerful they were literally fatal. Teaming up with cultural anthropologist Onofre (Daniel Giménez Cacho), Martinez hits the streets looking for clues, and eventually gets some unexpected help from Father Gorkisolo (Santiago Segura), a priest with a unusually deep knowledge of sexual matters. Asesino en Serio was the first feature film from director Antonio Urrutia; noted Mexican filmmaker Guillermo del Toro served as executive producer. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Asterix at the Olympic Games
Rene Goscinny and Albert Uderzo's internationally popular cartoon characters Asterix and Obelix take on the world of athletics in this live-action comedy-adventure. It's 50 B.C., and short but wily Asterix (Clovis Cornillac) and his rotund sidekick Obelix (Gerard Depardieu) hit the road for Rome, where they hope to compete in the Olympic Games. Obelix figures he's a sure bet for a weight-lifting medal until he learns his special strength elixir is against the rules, and Asterix is soon distracted by the behind-the-scenes chicanery. Princess Irina (Vanessa Hessler), a beautiful member of the Greek royal family, is being wooed by well-meaning Lovesix (Stephane Rousseau), who is using love poems stolen from Obelix to win her heart, and untrustworthy Brutus (Benoit Poelvoorde), whose father is the Roman emperor Julius Caesar (Alain Delon). Brutus is eager to take over the throne from his father, and keeps trying to kill Caesar off to speed up the process. Asterix Aux Jeux Olympiques (aka Asterix At The Olympic Games) also features cameo appearances from a number of European sports stars, including Zinedine Zidane, Michael Schumacher and Tony Parker. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Once again tampering with mother nature to disastrous results, Dr. Herbert West (Jeffrey Combs) continues his research in director Brian Yuzna's second sequel to the 1985 splatter classic Re-Animator. Currently serving time in a maximum security prison for his previous exploits, West's limited prison-cell experiments are suddenly interrupted by the arrival of Howard Phillips (Jason Barry), the new prison doctor and the brother of the girl who suffered from West's experiments 13 years earlier. Knowledgeable of West's previous experiments and eager to assist the mad doctor in continuing his studies, the naive Phillips discovers that West's continued studies have revealed a more effective means of bringing back the dead -- the removal of an individual's Neuroplasm, or soul, and the injection of it into a newly reanimated corpse. An electrical phenomenon discharged at the moment of death, with the discovery of the Neuroplasm West may have finally discovered the missing link to effectively bringing life to death. Or not. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Four years after scoring a box-office touchdown with Blade (1998), actor Wesley Snipes returns to portray the Marvel Comics character again in this sequel that teams him with Mexican horror director Guillermo del Toro. A half-vampire, half-human hybrid, Blade (Snipes) is a merciless vampire hunter bent on destroying the bloodsuckers that feed on humanity. The keys to Blade's success are a serum that allows him to resist the urge for blood and an array of inventive, deadly weapons, both of which were once supplied by his mentor, Whistler (Kris Kristofferson). Since Whistler's death, Blade has relocated to Prague and recruited the pot-smoking slacker Scud (Norman Reedus) to take the place of his father figure, but then he discovers that Whistler's not dead after all: He's been infected with the vampire virus. Reunited with Whistler, Blade is dealt an even bigger surprise: His greatest enemy, vampire leader Damaskinos (Thomas Kretschmann), wants to make peace with him. It seems that the vampires are facing a greater threat than Blade and hope to persuade him to fight the Reapers, a mutated super-race of vampires on a rampage of murder, indiscriminately killing both humans and their fellow bloodsuckers while sucking their victims dry. Blade agrees to a truce and joins the Bloodpack, an elite squad of commandos originally formed to fight Blade himself. Soon, the vampire soldiers discover that the virus responsible for creating their enemies is spreading rapidly and can be traced back to a mysterious "Patient Zero." Blade 2 (2002) co-stars Ron Perlman, Leonor Varela, Donnie Yen, and Matt Schulze. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

The title character of this Alex de la Iglesia film made her first appearance in David Lynch's Wild at Heart (1990) and was originally played by Isabella Rossellini. Rosie Perez takes over the role in this blend of black comedy, graphic sex and violence, voodoo, and weirdness. Perdita Durango is pure trash, a fact she establishes at the film's beginning. Her adventures begin when she hooks up with Romeo Dolorosa (Javier Bardem), a sleek, black-clad, sexually adventurous practitioner of Santeria who routinely kills, robs banks, and steals corpses from graves for his cannibalistic blood-soaked rituals. Santos (Don Stroud) is a pedophile and a crime boss. He hires Romeo to steal a truck filled with human fetuses that are slated to be used for cosmetic experiments. Romeo accepts but feels he must make a human sacrifice before he goes. This bothers Perdita not a bit and she even picks out a pair of blonde teens for the ritual killing. The two crooks kidnap the kids, ritually feather them, sexually abuse them, and are preparing to kill them when Romeo's cheated partner shows up with policemen. The crooks and their prey manage to escape, but the scheme to commandeer the truck gets botched and an ensuing shootout between Santos' men and DEA agents goes wrong. Santos loses many men and swears revenge upon Romeo and Perdita, who continue on their journey with their two doomed victims. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Recalling the darkly surreal world of Terry Gilliam, director Daniel Monzon debuts with this delirious film about a teenager shifting between grim reality and the much more alluring world of fantasy. The film opens with the muscle-bound Beldar (Joel Joan) and the vivacious Sonja (Neus Asensi) decapitating monsters and interpreting ancient languages in a dank labyrinth as they hunt for a legendary gem called the Heart of the Warrior. Without it, Beldar is cursed. Just before the dynamic duo meets their demise, Ramon (Fernando Ramallo), a pimply teenager, awakes from a dream. We learn that Beldar and Sonja are characters in a Dungeons and Dragons-style role playing game that Ramon plays along with Victor (Juan Diaz) and the perpetually horny Javi (Jaime Barnatan). As the film progresses, Ramon's intense fantasy world begins to bleed into reality. A one-eyed midget (Javier Aller) who Javi spies on the subway becomes the guardian of the evil Netheril (Santiago Segura), who in real life is a sleazy TV psychic. The fictional character Sonja, who Ramon is in love with, finds her real world incarnation as streetwalker Sonia (also Asensi). Soon Ramon begins to confuse fiction with reality when he bursts into the building of a prominent politician and hurls a sword at him, prompting a nationwide manhunt. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

El Dia de la Bestia
Spanish filmmaker Alex de la Iglesia followed his outlandish sci-fi/horror debut, Accion Mutante, with this colorful apocalypse fantasy about Father Angel (Alex Angulo), a scholarly priest whose intensive research into cabalistic "Bible Code" prophecies leads to a horrific discovery: the exact birthdate of the Antichrist. Convinced that Satan's spawn will be born somewhere in Madrid on Christmas Day, Father Angel embarks on a bizarre journey down the path of sin, committing the foulest possible acts against God and humanity in order to worm his way into the Devil's inner circle and face the ultimate foe on his own turf. Comprised of equal parts high-concept horror and scathing social satire (in the mode of the director's peer and former collaborator Pedro Almodovar), this ambitious horror film has garnered a sizable cult following. ~ Cavett Binion, Rovi

A mild-mannered banker finds himself living out his wildest dreams, only to wake up to a major dilemma in a continent-hopping comedy. Raymond (Hugh Laurie) is a British bank clerk who doesn't much care for his job, and whose marriage to Cathy (Lia Williams) has hit a rut. It would appear Cathy feels the same way about their relationship, since she's been fooling around on the side with Raymond's boss, Strothers (Patrick Barlow). Raymond's one escape from his dreary life comes from his part-time job as a dance instructor, and he often fantasizes about Orlinda (Vanessa Nunes), a beautiful and famous dancer from Brazil. One day, Raymond discovers that Cathy has finally left him to run away with Strothers, and Raymond snaps; he embezzles a fortune from the bank, and hops on the first plane for Rio, where with the help of taxi driver Paulo (Santiago Segura), he finds the lovely Orlinda, and to his amazement ends up spending the night with her. The next morning finds Raymond in a more stable frame of mind, and he decides he should return the money to the bank, but when he discovers Orlinda is gone, he realizes she took the embezzled funds with her, and now he has to find her and recover the money before it's too late. Santiago Segura is a major comedy star in Latin America, but he was cast somewhat against type in this film, since he's not Brazilian, but a Spaniard. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Mike Mignola's acclaimed comic book series about a creature from Hades who joins the battle against evil arrives on the screen in vivid form in this adaptation directed by distinctive horror filmmaker Guillermo del Toro. During World War II, the Third Reich has joined forces with the evil Grigori Rasputin (Karel Roden), who has used his occult powers to summon up a young demon from the depth of Hell to be used as the ultimate Axis weapon. However, the demonic creature is captured by American forces, and put in the care of Professor Broom (John Hurt), the founder of a top-secret organization called the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense. Under Broom's tutelage, the creature develops empathy and a desire to do good while his physical powers and paranormal talents are honed to a fine point. Sixty years later, the demon, now known as Hellboy (Ron Perlman), is part of an elite secret defense team alongside Liz Sherman (Selma Blair), a beautiful young woman who can create fire with her mind, and Abe Sapian (Doug Jones), an aquatic humanoid with the power of telepathy. Despite his many years of fighting for right, Hellboy finds himself facing his greatest challenge when the powerful Rasputin returns, determined to bring the demon back to the forces of darkness so that evil may finally rule the world. Hellboy's supporting cast also includes Jeffrey Tambor, Rupert Evans, and Brian Steele. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Post-Franco filmmaker Fernando Trueba's first Spanish-based feature since 1993's Oscar-winning Belle Epoque, La Nina de Tus Ojos begins in 1938, when Spain is torn by Civil War. As a sign of cordiality between General Franco and Adolph Hitler, a Spanish film crew is invited to Nazi Germany's UFA Studios in Berlin to make two versions of a popular Andalusian musical. The cast includes sexy, golden-hearted Macarena (Penélope Cruz), director Blas Fontiveros (Antonio Resines), leading man Julian Torralba (Jorge Sanz), art director Castillo (Santiago Segura) and alcoholic Rosa Rosales (Rosa Maria Sarda). On arrival, they gape at the resplendent shooting facilities, thankful to escape the misery of their war-torn country. However, it is not long before they realize what they have got themselves into, particularly when Nazi propaganda minister Josef Goebbels (Johannes Silberschneider) falls for the Latina charms of Macarena. German actress of Fassbinder fame Hanna Schygulla makes a cameo appearance as the wizened wife of the lustful propaganda minister. La Nina de Tus Ojos competed in the 49th Berlin International Film Festival in 1999. ~ Gönül Dönmez-Colin, Rovi

Show business legend is full of stories about comedy teams who don't get along offstage, but Muertos De Risa/Dying Of Laughter takes this notion to new heights in this story about two comedians who hate each other so much that it leads to attempted murder. In the early 1970's, Nino (Santiago Segura) is a nightclub singer whose career is going nowhere, and Bruno (El Gran Wyoming) is a comic who isn't doing any better. A talent agent, Julian (Alex Angulo), teams them up for a sketch on a popular TV show, and when Nino is suddenly stricken with stage fright on camera and can't speak, Bruno impulsively slaps him. The audience finds this hilarious, and their career as a duo is off and running -- while their personal relationship starts at a low point and keeps getting worse. Over time, Bruno steals Nino's girlfriend, Nino gets arrested for dealing drugs, the act periodically breaks up and reunites, and in the midst of a New Year's Eve broadcast in 1992, the two exchange gunfire on live TV. Starring two of Spain's most popular comedians, Muertos De Risa/Dying Of Laughter was massively popular in its initial release, and boasts exacting recreations of the look and mood of each decade presented, as well as witty references to Spain's contemporary political and social history. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Two struggling filmmakers land a big star for their next production the hard way in this dark comedy. Benito (Santiago Segura) wants to direct movies, and his friend Carolo (Pablo Carbonell) is a would-be actor who dreams of starring in Benito's productions, but their careers in show business are going nowhere fast. Benito has an idea for a new film, A World For Us, and is convinced Carolo would be perfect for the male lead -- and that screen siren Amanda Castro (Ariadna Gil) is just the actress to play his love interest. But Benito can't afford Amanda's salary for participating in his Super-8 project, so he and Carolo sneak into her dressing room in hopes of shooting some footage of her on the sly that they can use. But things don't go as they hoped, and Benito and Carolo end up kidnapping Amanda, who becomes the unwilling star of their newly expanding film, with the actress "playing" many of her scenes while handcuffed to a wheelchair. The plot line for Obra Maestra bears a certain similarity to the John Waters film Cecil B. Demented, which was released earlier the same year -- so much so that Waters considered legal action against the producers. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Veteran Spanish director Luis Garcia Berlanga created this anarchic black comedy about sexual impotence and millennial anxiety. Though a Paris-based plastic surgeon spends much of his time and wealth on prostitutes, he is plagued by impotence. Despondent, he plans to commit suicide. After happening upon a bike with "Paris-Timbuktu" painted on it, he decides to bike from France to Africa and kill himself there on New Year's Eve. But when his plans are thwarted in Spain by a painful boil on his bottom, he is forced to room with a pair of sisters in a remote village. Through them, he finds himself increasingly immersed in the local community, populated by the likes of a clergyman suspected of murder, a nudist garage mechanic, and a bizarre champion cyclist. Paris-Timbuktu was screened at the 1999 Montreal Film Festival. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

Promedio Rojo
Can a hopeless geek win the heart of the impossibly hot new girl at school? One fanboy hopes the answer can be "yes" in this teen-centric comedy from Chile. Roberto (Ariel Levy) is 17 years old, draws comics in his spare time when he isn't busy reading them, and likes to imagine himself an invincible superhero called "The Strange Obesity of Being." However, Roberto's daily life is anything but heroic; he's the target of cruel jokes from most of his classmates, and his only friends are a pair of fellow outcasts, nerdy Papitas (Sebastian "Berta" Muniz) and Condoro (Nicolas Martinez), who has a less-than-wholesome interest in girls. When beautiful Cristina (Xenia Tostado) arrives from Spain and enrolls at the same school as Roberto, he immediately falls head over heels in love, and is determined to make her his own. However, there's a problem -- she already has eyes for Fele (Benjamin Vicuna), the Big Man On Campus who is Roberto's nemesis and wants to make Cristina his next conquest. Promedio Rojo (aka Below Average) received its North American premiere at the 2005 South by Southwest Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

French history gets turned upside down in this lavishly mounted comedy with an international cast. As Napoleon (David Suchet) prepares for the Battle of Waterloo, he's nearly killed by an assassin. The attempted murder is foiled by Corporal Armani (Dominique Pinon), and a grateful Napoleon promotes the soldier to Field Marshal, not realizing that the rescue was a happy accident rather than an act of heroism, or that Armani's ineptitude will cost him dearly later on. Meanwhile, Napoleon is looking for inside information on the Duke of Wellington (Stephen Fry); accordingly, he is happy to make the acquaintance of Lady Edwina (Alexandra Vandernoot), who claims to be a French spy with some major dirt on the British command. Napoleon is smitten with the comely intelligence agent and soon they're enjoying a fling, but what he doesn't know is that she's actually working with the British to uncover information on the diminutive French ruler. When Edwina beats a hasty retreat, Napoleon thinks foul play is afoot, and he decides to follow her, disguising himself as a peasant woman to avoid suspicion. Though set in France and directed by Spanish filmmakers, Sabotage! was shot in English with an eye toward the American market. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A clown and an abusive sociopath vie for the attentions of a beautiful woman in this metaphorical drama from filmmaker Álex de la Iglesia. In 1938, civil war is raging in Spain, and the performers with a traveling circus are confronted by a band of Partisans who want them to fight against Franco -- or else. While the circus artists fight bravely, they're no match for the fascist leader's army, and many meet a bloody fate while others, like the Stupid Clown (Santiago Segura), end up in prison. The clown asks his young son, Javier, to avenge him someday, and in 1973, Javier (Carlos Areces) becomes a clown himself, working with a traveling carnival alongside Sergio (Antonio de la Torre), a man with an ugly and violent nature. Sergio has a girlfriend, a lovely trapeze artist named Natalia (Carolina Bang), who lives under his constant threats and abuse, and Javier soon falls for her. While Javier hates Sergio for what he does to Natalia, he has a hard time working up the courage to stand up to the bully, much as his father was hard-pressed to stop Franco's violent minions. Balada Triste de Trompeta (aka The Last Circus) earned Álex de la Iglesia prizes for Best Screenplay and Best Direction at the 2010 Venice Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Torrente, the thick-headed cop from the successful Spanish comedy Torrente, el brazo tonto de la ley, is back on the beat in this sequel, which actually outdoes the low comedy of the first film. In his second go-round, Torrente (once again played by Santiago Segura, who also wrote and directed the film) has managed to squander his savings while enjoying life (and chasing women) in the resort town of Marbella, so he goes back to work, finding employment as a private detective, with dope-addled ne'er-do-well Cuco (Gabino Diego) signing on as his assistant. Through a series of misunderstandings, Torrente ends up crossing paths with Spinelli (Jose Luis Moreno), a corrupt international arms dealer, and when Spinelli threatens to blow up Marbella unless he receives a ransom of two billion pesetas, the bumbling skirt-chaser becomes the only man who can prevent the destruction. Torrente 2: Mision En Marbella features cameo appearances from a number of popular Spanish comics and television personalities; the first film was one of the biggest grossing homegrown features ever in Spain, and the sequel's box-office success led many to predict Torrente could become the subject of a long-running series. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Bushnell Trail Cameras take viewing your favorite stomping grounds to a whole new level. Sure, these awesome Bushnell Game Cameras have all the features you would expect from a leader in the hunting industry, from amazing image quality and long lasting battery life to extraordinary memory capacity capable of recording thousands of photos or hours of video, but Bushnell didn't stop there. Game often comes out in the twilight hours of dusk and dawn, as well as at night. Adding a regular flash to a trail camera would scare off game, and if the deer learn the there's something strange in the area near your trail camera, they might stay away. That's why many Bushnell Trail Cams have the ability to take night vision video and pics. In addition, just in case there's too little ambient light in the area, Bushnell added in black LED lights in some models that don't give off light that animals or other people will see, but will provide an abundance of light for the NV camera. When you combine the trusted quality of Bushnell with innovative new features, great materials and more, you really have something special. The next time you're out hunting you'll be glad you first prepared for your trip by scouting the field with a Bushnell Trail Camera.

On the Democratic Attorney General campaign trail…June 21
Monday, June 21st, 2010The three Democratic lawyers running for Arizona Attorney General (Rep. David Lujan, Vince Rabago, and Felecia Rotellini) are debating at the Saguaro Eastside Democrats meeting tonight, June 21st.
The debate kicks off at 7 p.m. but there will be light refreshments starting at 6:30 p.m. with a chance to meet the candidates. Location: New Spirit Lutheran Church, 8701 Old Spanish Trail (northeast corner of Camino Seco). Attorney Roger White will be the moderator.
These three candidates have debated previously at events hosted by the Arizona Borderland Democrats, the Nucleus Club, Drinking Liberally, and probably elsewhere in Southern Arizona. Some voters I know have already decided whom to select for this run off in the August 24 primary, but if you haven't seen or heard these three candidates speak, attend this debate to hear how they will enforce Arizona's laws.
You can also read my previous blogs–with photos–of these candidates (click here for the May 13 debate) and here for the January 29 one.
For more information about Saguaro Eastside Democrats, log onto their website:
or call Program Chair Pat Weidhopf at 520-850-6755. They say they are "dedicated to galvanizing people who share a commitment to Democratic values, which include:
* Loving liberty
* Working for justice
* Actively participating in our political system".
Their political area encompasses Pima County 's Eastside communities in Legislative Districts 28, 29, & 30.

For example, which of these is correct:
Ich esse gern Pizza
Ich esse Pizza gern
For example, which of these is correct: or |
Both are correct. To me, Ich esse gerne Pizza hints at a question like Was ist Dein Lieblingsessen, whereas Ich esse Pizza gern would be more appropriate as an answer to Magst Du Pizza? That is, I would put the important word (the one carrying new information) at the end of the phrase. | |||||
Ich esse gern Pizza sounds more natural than Ich esse Pizza gern to a native speaker, even though both are correct. Better: Ich esse gerne Pizza (standard language) | ||||
It depends. When you want to express that pizza is your favourite meal you can say: When you admit that you would be happy to eat pizza, e.g. that has already been ordered or served, you would say: In the first case, I would prefer "gerne" instead of "gern". | ||||
You can also say "Ich esse Pizza gern" is a more formal way of saying it but if you want to say it to friends you should just say "ich mag Pizza" - they all mean the same thing. | ||||

A big change to the Whoniverse perpetrated by the creators of Nu Who is, obviously, the obliteration of the rest of the Time Lord race and presumably the planet of Gallifrey — though the 10th Doctor's description of it burning could simply be the surface burnt off; actual whole planets are not easy to destroy, no matter what George Lucas says. I suppose, though, that in the context of said Whoniverse, if there was ever a weapon that could obliterate a whole planet so that even the Master couldn't find it, then the Time Lords were the people who could make it.
Anyway, all that aside, I have a problem with the conception of 1) the Time War, 2) the destruction of Gallifrey not after all being so much the fault of the Daleks as the Time Lords themselves, who apparently went so badly off their heads that they had to be put down like rabid dogs.
My problems with the Time War are brief: I don't understand it. This is probably due to my low scientific intellect — math is haaaard, and I don't understand skiencefikshun talk about time streams and time loops and "higher races" being able to perceive what was going on while "lower races" just went about their lives and all that stuff. For example, did it happen in the past (besides the Doctor's own past, that is), the future, or some "outside time" place. In which case, if it's outside time, is it still going on? (Because how can things "outside time" stop or start.) Do you see what I mean? Well neither do I. And that's the problem I have.
Moving along to what is more important to me: this conception of the Time Lords as (finally I guess, because they didn't start out that way) evil villainous beings of evil who were so evil they had to be killed a second time! Heck they were so evil we had to sacrifice Susan (that woman Claire Bloom played was not the Doctor's mother, that was Susan, several decades or centuries older and just looking that way because she needed to regenerate), so evil that the Master had to help kill them. It just… frustrates me.
By the way, why couldn't the Doctor just have grabbed Susan (not his mom) and dragged her out of the way just before the Master's laser beam hands sent the whole crew back to Gallifrey's galaxy, or time loop, or time cave, or whatever? Ten, despite having fallen several feet through a glass roof onto a marble tiled floor, seemed pretty limber.
Anyway, Steven Moffat, currently in charge of Nu Who, thinks that Russell T. Davies' character rape conception of the Time Lords as evil etc. is just fine and dandy. "Brilliant" is what I think he said. Now keep in mind this is Moffat we're talking about and he has a way of… not saying everything. But let's just go with that. The writers have decided to basically not only isolate the Doctor but do it in the most traumatic way possible. That's one thing. Another thing is… what is so brilliant about taking a complex conception of a race of beings who were, in their own minds at least, super-intellectual, super-civilized, and one of the oldest civilizations "in the universe" and simplifying them into a group of "oh they're just evil!" My thing is this: the original conception of the Time Lords as being sometimes superior, sometimes just tool old and decadent, often manipulative for all sorts of reasons good and bad and beyond good and bad, sometimes helpful, sometimes helpless (and thus needing the Doctor's help), sometimes ossified and unable to see the solution right in front of them because they were too set in their ways, sometimes outright jerkasses — was much more interesting then turning them into a bunch of evil freaks who were a-okay with destroying "time itself" so they could "ascend" — though where they were supposed to be ascending to without any time or place existing any more no one seems to have cared to speculate on. In short, I find the reduction of Time Lords to psycho villains too simplistic.
It also removed an entire set of plot possibilities from the show. I am not so sure that that wasn't the intention of the writers — for all his geek credentials, Davies didn't seem very interested in the wonders of exploring alien space — most of his shows took place in the human universe, which he conveniently extended to the very heat death of the universe, and way too many of his shows took place in the same few square blocks of 21st century London. I had hopes for Moffat, but his show seems to have turned into a Rory-Amy-Doctor-River soap opera, which is interesting, I guess, unless you were looking for an episode of Doctor Who.
Perhaps this is due to the constant calls for more stuff about the Doctor's personal life coming from a certain segment of fandom. Forty-eight years ago when the show first aired, people hadn't been nurtured forever on 24/7 television drama. They were, it seems, more okay with a character being of mysterious origin, and not needing him to be a cute guy they can "identify with" (I hate that phrase, by the way — it's so condescending, implying that I can't feel sympathy towards the plight of anyone who doesn't look or act like me). I don't know what the problem is. But if there's a way to approach the actual Life Of The Doctor, I do think that disappearing his whole race, refusing to talk about it, and saddling him with the companionship of humans and only humans (and only humans from 21st century Earth) isn't the way to go about it.
This is all a long roundabout way of saying I wish they'd retcon away the Time War somehow. It's just awkward. The Doctor is an alien, not a human, and getting rid of his people to somehow make him "more human" just makes it look like you don't like science fiction and really want to write a show about 21st century Earth. Don't get me wrong — the new show is still vastly entertaining — but I want my sense of wonder back. I just don't get it from the new shiny show like I did from the old gimcrack low-budget joke with the cardboard sets and bad special effects.

There's something about this lace and mesh suspender that's a little bit country, and a lot rock and roll. The feathery floral embroidery is feminine and delicate, while the shilhouette (long lines, corsetry, peek-a-boo panels, swoop-up back) is more than a little wild. Sign us up.
May We Recommend?
With lovely botanical navy midnight lace, subtly scalloped edges (especially along the cheeky bum), and flecks of luxurious gold this pretty thong is a medina treasure.
Crimson silk, sugarplum dusted ivory lace appliques, and classically cheeky thong shape make this sweet and festive little bottom the stuff of dancing visions.
$13.00 - $26.00
The cardinal and the peacock have nothing on this extremely cheeky luxe and luscious boythong. We think it's finally our turn to shake a tail feather.

Bjarke Ingels Group recently unveiled a proposal for a school in Asminderod, Denmark that is topped with a series of undulating green roofs. The bands of greenery create an immersive landscape for the children that compliments the school's focus on nature and sustainability. The building themselves are remarkably energy efficient and make great use of daylight. The school features a variety of green building techniques that teach environmentalism by design, including water catchment, biodiversity preservation, and minimal site impact.
The peaked roofs are offset from each other, creating spaces for large windows that saturate the interiors with sunlight. Rooms are connected by intersections within the building's bands. The result is a series of spaces both intimate and large. Natural cooling is provided by a displacement system that removes warm stale air from on top and replaces it with fresh air cooled by the local landscape.
We've seen a lot of green roofs lately for a good reason. They help cool and insulate buildings, control rainwater runoff, and add much needed biodiversity. BIG's proposal takes the unusual step of setting up the roof be a part of the school grounds, providing a diverse environment for kids to explore. The entire project blends man-made structure with nature as an exploration of what lessons can be learned from building with the environment.

I love this concept. I've always wanted to have my very own Earth Home one day, they seem to be so much more energy efficient and practical. I just don't see how a new architectural style of homes getting built like this will ever catch on, at least here in the US. I am hopeful, though, that one day a developer will catch the idea and move us all to a more sustainable way of constructing new homes. As a collective society, we all have to bare in mind the environmental issues that are present in our modern day lives. I also try to discuss some of these topics @ http://www.theenvironmentalblog.org . Thanks for the great post. =)

Fright night for Strictly hopefuls
8:38pm Saturday 2nd November 2013 in National Entertainment News © Press Association 2013
Cobwebs were shaken off and bones were rattled as the Halloween spirit descended on Strictly Come Dancing.
The first 10s of the series were awarded to actress Natalie Gumede and her partner Artem Chigvintsev who glided through the ballroom dancing a Viennese waltz.
Judge Len Goodman described it as "lovely", while Bruno Tonioli told Gumede she "leaves us all spellbound".
Darcey Bussell said: "I expect so much from you but you never disappoint."
The couple scored 38 - receiving the first 10 pointers of the year, courtesy of Tonioli and Bussell.
Actor Patrick Robinson and his partner Anya Garnis scored 34 for their quickstep in which they concocted a "magic spell".
Goodman said he was "bewitched, bothered and bewildered" by how great it was, while Craig Revel Horwood said their energy was "phenomenal".
Former Bond girl Fiona Fullerton and her partner Anton Du Beke scored 28 for their Charleston.
The pair, dressed as scarecrows, were criticised by the judges for being out of time.
Tonioli said it was "like Halloween at Doris Day's house".
A topless Ben Cohen and his partner Kristina Rihanoff got a standing ovation for their paso doble - described by Goodman as "an explosion".
The couple scored 32 , and Bussell told Cohen he had given her a "great lasting image".
Revel Horwood meanwhile admitted he was "slightly distracted".
Sophie Ellis-Bextor and her partner Brendan Cole took on the jive this week and Bussell said it was a "real shame" the singer had bent knees and no sharp kicks.
Goodman said she needed to come out with "more confidence, more impact".
The couple scored 28.
Actor Mark Benton and his partner Iveta Lukosiute performed the paso doble with a space theme, but Tonioli said it was "more space cadet than matador".
Scoring 25 for their effort, Revel Horwood commended Benton on his good rhythm but said it was a bit heavy and stompy.
Countdown presenter Rachel Riley and her partner Pasha Kovalev performed their "best dance yet", according to Goodman.
Revel Horwood welcomed them back into the competition, while Tonioli told Riley she had found her mojo.
The couple scored 30 - their highest score so far.
Actor Ashley Taylor Dawson and his partner Ola Jordan tackled a tango, and it was described as "aggressive, dark, mysterious" by Revel Horwood.
Bussell said: "I'm really attracted to the evil Ashley."
Goodman, however, said he needed to work on "small details".
The pair scored their highest of the series with 33 out of 40.
Abbey Clancy and her partner Aljaz Skorjanec danced a rumba which received much praise from the judging panel and a score of 34.
Tonioli said: "You're here to stay."
While Revel Horwood simply summed it up as "impressive".
Hairy Biker Dave Myers and his partner Karen Hauer attempted the jive, but Tonioli said it was more of a "soft shoe shuffle".
Adding: "The jive was non-existent."
Goodman praised Myers for being a "trier", and t he couple scored 19.
Susanna Reid and her partner Kevin Clifton danced a Charleston which was described as sweet, fun and cheeky by Bussell.
The couple scored 34 for their performance.
A couple will be voted off tomorrow night in the results show.

Jc Sportfishing Weekly Fish Report.
As the Admiral Seas It
Fishing Report: 2/10/13 to 2/17/13
Now is the time to come to Cabo as the fishing is still really good and not only that there is some really good deals on airfares lately as Spirit Airlines has some really good deals. You might want to look into this and also if you are in LA or San Diego you might think about flying out of Tijuana as the rates are much cheaper for TJ to Cabo. Just something to think about.
Jc Sportfishing Charters is a family owned and operated business and has been fishing in Cabo San Lucas for the past 18 years. Jerry, explains that his charter business is geared more for families and novice anglers, making sure everyone who charters a boat with him has a great time and lots of fun. We welcome families and groups. We want everyone who fishes with us to take all the sites in and have memorable experience. This is what is most important to us. We have and do a few tournaments each year and can cater to fisherman who might be interested in tournament fishing. Lets get on with the report for this past week.
WATER: The water has been pretty much the same as last week with temperatures in the low 70,s in most areas. There are reports of green water and temperatures in the ladder 60,s on the pacific side in some areas. We did have the warm water move in over last couple days picking up the fishing.
WEATHER:.The weather has really been good over the last week it did drop the temperature at night to where it got a little chilly but the days have been really nice. Some light breezes in the afternoon but nothing major as far as wind. There were a few days over the last week that even dropped into the low 50,s at night. Then in the day time it went back up to mid 80,s. So all in all its great weather really typical Cabo weather this time of year.
BILLFISHING: We are still catching good numbers of Striped Marlin from the Light House to the Golden Gate. Our own Bob Marlin did have a really cool and unusual day a few days ago with catch of a Swordfish this was the first one for us in 8 years and it tipped the scales at 175 pounds and took 2 and a half hours to land with 4 anglers fighting the fish. The Swordfish are really big fighters and this was a great surprise and lots of fun for the guys on the Bob Marlin. We do not have a lot of Swordfish caught here in Cabo but there are times of year where there are a few landed.
The swordfish has a stout, fairly rounded body and large eyes. The first dorsal fin (rising from the back of the fish) is tall and crescent-shaped. The second dorsal fin is quite separate from the first and very small. Both are soft-rayedhaving thin, bony rods that extend from the base of the fin and support the fin membrane. The anal fins approximate the shape of the dorsal fins, but are noticeably smaller. Ventral fins, found on the underside of fish, are absent. There is a strong, longitudinal keel, or ridge, on either side of the caudal peduncle (the base of the tail where the tail fins project from), which leads to a broad, crescent-shaped tail. Adult swordfish have neither teeth nor scales.
The swordfish snout elongates into a true sword shape. Measuring at least one-third the length of the body, it is long, flat, pointed, and very sharp. The lower jaw is much smaller, though just as pointed, ending in a very wide mouth.
The bodies of swordfish fry (recently hatched fish larvae) are quite different form those of the adults. Their upper and lower jaws are equally prolonged; bodies are long, thin, and snakelike; they are covered with rough, spiny scales and plates; tails are rounded; and they have just one long dorsal and anal fin.
Swordfish coloration varies greatly among individuals. The dorsal side can range from dark brown to grayish-blue. This dark shading can extend anywhere from halfway down the side to almost the full extent of the body. The remaining area of the skin is tinged silvery white.
Other billfish, including marlins, inhabit Northeast waters, but only the spearfish bears a strong resemblance to the swordfish. It is distinguished from the swordfish by its rounded sword, small teeth, a long, continuous dorsal fin, and ventral fins.
While the largest swordfish recorded in the North Atlantic ocean weighed 550 kg, fish over 200 kg are unusual. Today, the average fish caught in the commercial fishery weighs between 90 and 150 kilograms (1 kilogram equals 2.2 pounds). The largest fish to be caught on a tackle weighed 274 kg. These larger fish measure approximately 4.5 meters in length (1 meter equals 3.3 feet)with a 3 meter body and a 5 meter sword.
Female swordfish grow faster, live longer, and are proportionally heavier than their male counterparts. Research shows that by 1 year of age, the female is already almost 4 kg. During the next 2 years, she triples her weight of the previous year. By age 4, the female is likely to weigh 70 kg, and at age 5, 110 kg. Similar data for males and older swordfish are inconclusive.
Swordfish reach sexual maturity at about 2 to 3 years of age, and live for at least nine years. While they may survive longer, no such documentation exists. The majority of swordfish caught in the North Atlantic sport fishery are thought to be 4 to 5 years old.
Swordfish are pelagic fishliving within the water column rather than on the bottom or in coastal areas. They are typically found at depths of between 180 meters and 580 meters, and are found worldwide in temperate and tropical waters. They are believed to prefer waters where the surface temperature is above 15°C (58°F), although they can tolerate temperatures as low as 10°C (50°F). There seems to be some correlation between larger size and the ability to tolerate colder temperatures. Few fish under 90 kg are found in waters less than 18°C (64°F).
Swordfish are summer and fall visitors to New England waters, entering the warming Atlantic coastal waters from far offshore in the Gulf Stream around June and departing in late October. Evidence suggests that such onshore-offshore seasonal migrations are more prevalent than are migrations between the northern feeding areas off Cape Hatteras and the southern spawning grounds off Florida and the Caribbean.
Swordfish are not schooling fish. They swim alone or in very loose aggregations, separated by as much as 10 meters from a neighboring swordfish. They are frequently found basking at the surface, airing their first dorsal fin. Boaters report this to be a beautiful sight, as is the powerful jumping for which the species is known. This jumping, also called breaching, is thought by some researchers to be an effort to dislodge pests, such as remoras or lampreys. It could also be a way of surface feeding by stunning small fish as they jump out of the water, making the fish more easily captured for food. Swordfish feed daily, most often at night when they rise to surface and near-surface waters in search of smaller fish. They have been observed moving through schools of fish, thrashing their swords to kill or stun their prey and then quickly turning to consume their catch. In the western North Atlantic, squid is the most popular food item consumed. But fish, such as menhaden, mackerel, bluefish, silver hake, butterfish, and herring also contribute to the swordfish diet. Swordfish are vigorous, powerful fighters. When hooked or harpooned, they have been known to dive so quickly that they have impaled their swords into the ocean bottom up to their eyes. Although there are no reports of unprovoked attacks on humans, swordfish can be very dangerous when harpooned. They have run their swords through the planking of small boats when hurt. The adults have few natural enemies, with the exception of large sharks and sperm and killer whales.
BAIT: Bait is the standard 3.00 dollares a piece and there has been plenty around. DORADO: We have experiencing some very good Dorado fishing this past week but it seems to be good for a couple days and then bad for a day or so. This pattern has been going on for awhile now. The Dorado have been caught from the Light House to Margarita over the past week. Really this time of year the Dorado should be gone by now but it doesnt seem that way this year even today and yesterday warm water moved in making for some really good Dorado fishing over last couple days. It has been hot up around the Los Arcos area about 1 to 2 miles offshore. Normally this time of year we would be fishing more for Snapper, Jack Crevell, Sierra and Yellowtail. So were hoping for more of the same good fishing to last into this coming week.
INSHORE: Some Yellowtail still in the area but not the numbers we expect to see when water cools some. There even has been numbers of Dorado close to shore being caught off of the Pangas. Most Dorado being caught close to shore are in the area of Solmar to the Pump House. Good numbers of Sierras being caught off of the Solmar all the way up to Los Arcos. A few Jack Crevells were also being caught off of Solmar.
TUNA: We had a couple days of Commercial Tuna boats moving in on us and cleaning out the Tuna for a couple days. The Tuna fishing hasnt really been that bad lately. We were catching some outside of Jamie Banks before the commercial guys showed up. We expect it to get back on track when they leave the area.Cedar Plugs and Spreader Bars have been being used to catch the Tuna. Most were 15 to 30 pounds with some going to 50 pounds.
WAHOO: I havent heard of any Wahoo this past week.
BEWARE: Remember if your not renting charter boats from companies who have been established in Cabo for the past 20 years ( Jcsportfishing, Pisces Sportfishing, Minervas, Redrum, Picante Fleet) you might have problems. There are many sportfishing fleets on the internet who are really not established business, who are operating illegally. Lots of these outfits are renting you a boat they have never even looked at and dont even know where you would board the boat, leaving you the task of trying to find the boat. They dont even have an office you can go and confirm your charter boat. You do not want to spend a day walking around looking for the boat and where you board. If you wait till the day you are fishing and go to the dock where your boat is many times people will mislead you to another boat or dock trying to put you on a boat that was not meant for you. You need to have a person guide you to your boat, who is from a reputable charter company. This way there is no confusion or misleading. Lots of vendors renting boats in the hotels are not reputable and dont care about your interest and care more about a commission . 75% of the Cabo Fishing websites on Google are not even in business anymore or might be just brokers who dont have an office in Cabo. Some of the Google websites are misleading and not established .Please remember when renting Sport fishing boats in Cabo that you rent your boat from reputable and established business. Walk into a fishing fleet office and ask questions about what you are getting and what are the costs. You dont want to rent boats from vendors in the streets and you do not want to book through shady websites offering you the world. You need to go to the fishing fleet office, while in Cabo and book your boat. Check through travel forums about reputable fishing fleets to deal with. Look for testimonials about the fleet your booking your charter with. Ask about what will the boat be supplying? Will it include beverages or lunches? How much does it cost to fillet your catch? Check to see if charter boat is insured? Ask about getting your catch smoked? Check cost of fishing license. These are just a few things to consider when booking your charter boat. We will be talking more about this in next weeks fishing report. Until next time good fishing and we hope to see you in Cabo soon. Come by the office here in Cabo and get all the latest up to date fishing report.

We are a group of pug lovers who get together once a month for pugs and parents to socialize. We have been meeting since February 2004 and have gradually grown to a nice size group. Many of our pugs (and parents) have really gotten to know each other and look forward to our monthly play date. We currently meet at the A.D.O.P.T.

Soccer is passion. Played, lived and loved by more players and fans than any other sport on the planet. And 5-a-side soccer has its own special brand of passion. Fast, intensive, exciting, it's the game suitable for just about any age and any ability. It's also the perfect focus for any small group of friends who just want to play. The English FA says participation rates in the small sided game have overtaken and far exceeded 11-a-side. You don't need to spend all of your time recruiting a 15 pe …
There are no upcoming Meetups.
We are a group of people that want to meet other people who own & love Puggles. This is a fairly new breed of dog that is half pug and half beagle. We also are Puggle owners that want our Puggles to meet other Puggles and play and have a Barking Great time!

Forever has always existed.
In the mythology of Oceanic peoples, it's been there along with Darkness and the Sea.
The Earth came from the efforts of Old Spider, who soared over the endless sea and found a giant clam. She opened it and crawled inside, finding a snail there to share the space with her. She set the snail in the west and made it into the Moon to shed some light into the darkness. Together they raised up the top of the clam shell to make the sky, pushing it until it was wide open.
Then they pushed the bottom half of the clam shell in the other direction to make the ground. The earth was called Papa and the sky Ranga. These are the two first beings who created all the flowers, plants, trees and animals on the islands, and fish in the sea.
They celebrated all their open space by making as many beautiful creatures as they could imagine, but they still remained separated by the work of the original Old Spider. Each night, Ranga weeps for his beloved Papa earth, and this is where the morning dew comes from.
Polynesia means "many islands" and when you see these pictures, you will want to visit all of them. To make it simple, the islands sit in a triangle described by connecting Hawaii, New Zealand and Easter Island.
There are over a thousand of these islands of surfer's paradise in the central and south Pacific Ocean. It's stunning. Look at the color of the water here! And the sunset... these speak for themselves. Could you be happy in this little house? How about some reef diving inside a lagoon?
Put this one in full screen and don't come back. Love, 360.

OK our last thread got locked so before anything happens I want to get a few things straight:
- Don't bash Aurisonics based the impressions you read.
- Aurisonics IEM's were not specifically designed with audiophiles in mind, musicians (specifically vocalists) were the target.
- SO DON'T COMPLAIN BEFORE YOU LISTEN! It is not fair to the manufacture and it can be particularly misleading.
- Don't comment on the sound if you haven't listened to any of the AS series whether positive or negative (really just repeating the last point).
The old thread has gotten kind of lengthy so I will try to put links to useful posts from the last thread here (Thanks to AuralHygiene and Gilly87 for compiling this list from the old thread and to everyone who sends/sent me their link(s) to their review(s)):
