so… I'm going to actually post something deep thoughted for the first time in a couple days…
you're excited right? I know…
oh you're not? o.o
sucks for you.
anyway, two things.
first thing, and its short. These people on tumblr who complain about followers. No offense, but PLEASE, shut up. It's a blog, not a popularity contest. If you want popularity, go back to your facebook tab (which is probably open right now). And you probably have a some source of music somewhere. (I know, I'm psychic >:D)
But for real. ITS YOUR PERSONAL BLOG (probably). You shouldn't be so obsessed with how many followers you have, rather who's following you. Don't start changing everything you blog just to get more followers, or go into those stupid random (you'll get 50 follower) chains.
The people who actually appreciate the things you love to talk about and post on your blog are the ones you want to follow you. Who cares if its a few people? They're people nonetheless, and unlike the rest of the tumblr mass, they are ones who respect and enjoy your opinion. Stop trying to be the eyes of the world. The world has its eyes on itself. It always will.
I mean, have you ever stopped to think. There's thousands of people out there who's blog is nothing but pictures. You really don't know anything about the person. It's just funny or popular pictures from the internet/tumblr. Again, you know nothing about the individual or their purpose, but HEY, THEY HAVE 500 FOLLOWERS….
do you see my point? That kind of blog seems pointless to me. Let your blog mean something. Let it be everything you WANT to say on Facebook but can't, because you don't want to lose the popularity contest.
Second thing:
I hate society. Alot. And in turn, I hate facebook, because facebook is the popularity contest of digital society. Screw that -.-
(and yet it's still open in my other tab o.o)
We were sitting at the pool today… and I just sat there and stared at people the whole hour. (NO I'M NOT A CREEPER) But like, first of all, it was hella cold… like I'm gonna get in the water with that kind of breeze. And second of all, I couldn't just help but notice. I couldn't help but think. I think alot.
I caught myself, comparing myself to other guys there and thinking "should I do this" and "should I maybe do something like that"
and I was like "WOAAH!!! What are you doing here Speedy?"
I mean, I'm staring at people, and I just see these different traits and attitudes about them. So self-centered. So worldly. It makes me sick. Like… what's the point? Your life may seem so great at the current moment when you can sit there feeling cool under the umbrella while you shoot the stuff with your buddies talking about this and that, admiring your tattoos and making the occasional eye at the next chick in a bikini to walk by. But later, doesn't it all seem so pointless?
I don't know. Maybe I'm over thinking it. But I dislike going out in the mass public, because then I see so many things on people, just in the smallest seconds. I am fairly good at summing people up in a few quick looks. I'm not bragging. To be honest I'm complaining. I see all these things on people and it reminds me of everything I hate about our society. Just the attitude. The drama. The way people carry themselves. Excuse me but it's all so fucked up. Extremely.
I don't know. I can't handle it some days.
It's just one of those things I constantly wonder on.
And then I realize I think too much, and turn my MP3 up louder XD
but yeah….
My thought of the day.
Hope God is blessing you all with our daily such in life.
Have an awesome night/morning Tumblr :D
Speedy shutting up.

Luke Sheehy
May 2, 1985 — June 10, 2013
Luke Sheehy, 28, died June 10, 2013 as a result of an accident while working a fire in the Warner Mountains, Modoc County, Calif. Luke was a member of the Smokejumpers, an elite wildfire fighting group of the U.S. Forest Service.
Luke was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Donald and Dorothy Sheehy.
He is survived by his parents, Lynn and Douglas Sheehy, of Quincy and Susanville; and his sisters, Kate, of Las Vegas, and Meg, of San Francisco. He is also survived by his maternal grandparents, Patsy and David Foster, of Susanville.
His survivors include his Sheehy aunts and uncles, Dawn Marie, Diane, Denise, Debbie, Doria, Danny, David, Dean, Devin, Dale and Derek. Luke has many beloved cousins.
Lynn's side of the family includes aunt and uncle, Kyle and Ed Schefter, of San Luis Obispo, Calif., and their sons, Kellen and Tyler, who was Luke's motorcycling buddy; and aunt and uncle, Jane and Jack Medici, of Westwood, and their family, Shannon, Darrah, Ellen and Mitchell. Lynn's aunt and uncle, Karen and Joel Samuelson, and their family gave Luke a connection to Nebraska, which he treasured. Go! Cornhuskers!
Luke graduated from Lassen High School in Susanville, and received a certificate from the Shasta College Fire Academy. Luke's firefighting career began with Calfire. He was next a member of the Diamond Mountain Hot Shots before he became a Smokejumper stationed in Redding, Calif., Region 5.
Luke had good times in Westwood, and lived for a while with his cousin, Shannon Medici Brinkman, and her husband, Richard Brinkman. He went logging and hunting with Jack Medici and snowmobiling with the family. Luke loved to pester the girls, Jane, Darrah and Ellen. He learned to fly fish and tie flies with his Grandpa Dave.
Luke loved people in general and firefighters in particular. Mike "Big Money" West in Susanville and Aaron Burrough, who lived next door to him in the Anderson area, were among his very good friends. Luke especially loved Burrough's young family.
"People usually have valleys and peaks in their life," said Redding Smokejumper Luis Gomez, "But for Luke there were no valleys, he danced from peak to peak."
Luke liked nearly all kinds of music. He took fiddle lessons from Carol Fontana, known as the Concert Mistress of the Susanville Symphony Orchestra. He, of course, learned the guitar from his father, Doug, and they enjoyed playing together. He especially liked bluegrass (with his grandpa) and music by Jackson Browne.

The link is foreseen as an export route for wind and solar power to Norway and hydropower the other way
UK and Denmark study subsea link to share renewable power

National Grid and Statnett commit to 700km UK-Norway link

Europe's grid is stuck in the slow lane and it's hurting renewables
06 March 2012 02:44 GMT
By Darius Snieckus, Bristol
Tuesday, December 04 2012
Updated: Friday, December 21 2012
Plans for a 1.4GW subsea power link between Norway and Germany have advanced after a project deal was signed by transmission system operators (TSOs) Statnett and TenneT, and German bank KfW Ipex.
Expected to cost €1.5-€2bn ($1.96-$2.6bn), the high-voltage direct current interconnector – which is using the working name of GerNor – would run for 500-600km between two as-yet-unspecified connection points.
The offshore line is foreseen as an export route for wind and solar power from Germany to Norway, with the latter sending its surplus hydropower into Europe during low-production times in Germany.
A final investment decision on the project will be taken next year, with commissioning of the line envisaged as early as 2018.

Half the weight and twice as strong as most cast-iron clamps.
The Mega Clamp is created from high-tensile, aircraft-grade, extruded aluminum, so it's both stronger and lighter than cast-iron clamps by The Light Source. The Mega Clamp's safety factor far exceeds industry standards, finally breaking at over 2-1/2 tons at an independent testing laboratory.
First introduced in 1993, this solid one-piece clamp body is designed to grip pipe with it's micro grooves, and will not "rock" when making adjustments to the light fixture. The Belleville spring washer has 600 pounds of spring load when compressed. This spring pressure keeps the fixture from drifting after making small pan adjustments to the light fixture. Just grab the fixture by the top of the yoke and twist to pan the fixture. Usually, you will not need to pull out your wrench to tighten the pan bolt, the fixture will stay securely held. The Mega-Clamp fits from 1" pipe to 2" pipe sizes (1-1/4" OD to 2.375" inch OD tubes). This means you can hang fixtures from a 2" pipe without having to buy a special, expensive, heavy-duty clamp. The Mega-Clamp fits the larger pipe standard.
Get a heavy-duty clamp you can rely on. Order today.

David Wilson. Wait, you'll see. Right this second... Nicks and JPP neck and neck.
JPP without a doubt, probly one of the biggest steals too, next to Bradshaw of course.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say S. Moss. Man what a WR he was. I think most would agree he's first ballot Hall of Fame material. Lol

2013? LGNYG bring home another Title this year!!!
Football has been very, very good to us.
In the midst of this losing season, we can console ourselves with this fact-
# of Super Bowl victories since 1985:
1-Chicago, St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, New Orleans
2-Washington, Green Bay, Denver, Pittsburgh, Baltimore
3-San Francisco, Dallas, New England
4-New York Giants!!!!!
***Stat provided by "Schloss22"***
Taking value into consideration, i'd say Justin Tuck.. The guy should of gotten the SB MVP in first meeting against the pats, and has been more consistent then OSI has, and more all around game then OSI has...
Travis Beckum or JPP..
Probably Tuck. If it hadn't been for two great games by Eli he could have been MVP of both Super Bowls.

Benjamin Walker
Hollywood has a long, rich tradition of historical abominations, but never has there been a history done more abominably than Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.
If only they had made this insane conceit more fun. If only they had taken it all a bit less seriously. But the film, adapted by the same fellow who wrote the inexplicably popular novel of the same title, isn't even decent camp.
Seth Grahame-Smith's silly script re-imagines the Rail Splitter as a vampire vanquisher, a man seeking vengeance on the monsters who killed his mother, who conveniently are mostly Southern and support slavery because they're in need of a "a fresh crop" to feed on whom no one — no one white, anyway — will miss in pre-Civil War America.
Snippets of real history slip into the story as Harriet Tubman makes an appearance, Abe debates Stephen Douglas (Alan Tudyk), courts Mary Todd (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) and wears the burden of the bloodletting of the Civil War.
Abe carries his mother's maxim in his heart, that "until every man is free, we are all slaves." And because he is a samurai of the swinging ax, he has the means to have his revenge — and free the slaves, too.
Director Timur Bekmambetov (Wanted, Nightwatch) brings his usual visual verve to Abe's many vampire battles — musket balls hurtling into the 3-D camera lens, slo-mo ax arcs, digital horses stampeding into our noses. But everything in between the action is badly written, badly acted and boring.
Which brings us to our leading man. Throughout Hollywood history, the towering screen presences of each era have blanched at playing Lincoln, arguably America's most iconic president. Henry Fonda, Raymond Massey and Gregory Peck are among the few who dared and got away with it.
Inexperienced Benjamin Walker lacks the spark, the charisma, the confidence to be anything but a limp Lord of the Ax Dancers.
Vampire Hunter is an all-around failure, with poor Walker a tall, thin deer caught in the kerosene headlamps of a locomotive going off the tracks.

Question - is the deck crown always produced as a centreline part of a template set out to the widest beam, or is a ratio used to re-jig, as the beam changes - i.e. a parabola based on a ratio is a different curve to a portion of another parabola
The curve of a ten foot width of the centre (top section of the parabolic curve) of a template set for a crown of 1' in 20', is a different curve from a crown that is 1/2' in 10'.
So does everyone use the upper part of the same (max beam) template along a deck?

The University at Buffalo is ready to strike a deal with its incoming Class of 2016 with a new program called Finish in 4.
While nearly all of UB's undergraduate majors can be completed in four years, most students in the U.S. take longer, sometimes as long as six years, to receive their degrees. Finish in 4 will provide students with clear information and guidance on exactly what it takes to complete their degree within the traditional four-year timeframe.
UB students who sign the Finish in Four pledge will be given a roadmap of what courses to take and when, and what grades and other requirements must be met. UB will also provide regular academic, career and financial advisement to enable students to complete their degrees on time.
In turn, students must fulfill their requirements pertaining to academic advisement, course registration and grades.
Students who fulfill all obligations of their plan, but who are not able to graduate within four years, will be given the opportunity to complete the UB courses required for their degree free of any tuition and comprehensive fee charges.

Evolution can not explain the existence of creationists, concedes D...
'It's a flaw in our argument, for sure,' said Dawkins today. 'By any reading of evolutionary theory, creationists ought to have died out ages ago. They serve no function in the planet's ecosystem, and no other species has survived so long while in such fundamental disagreement with observable reality. If I wasn't such an ardent believer in secular materialism, I'd wager this is really troubling Darwin in the afterlife.'
LOL. Thanks
existance of creationists via group selection, perhaps? Social cohesion?
Mr Dawkins, with all respect due, you're on the wrong train of thought.
You don't need evolution to figure out why there are still creationists on this planet.
Simple logic is enough.
Consider this:
The dead, they don't know they're dead - it's the others who suffer because they're dead.
The stupid - ditto. They don't know they're stupid - and the others suffer because they're stupid.
Therefore, stupidity is like death.
Creationists are stupid, therefore they're like the dead, and thus can't die out.
Brilliant and funny, thanks for the link, any of you read the other articles ?
I just love the article :Rupert Murdoch launches subscription-only dreams app, The Nightly
"Those wanting more dangerous dreams can press the red button for a selection of 'Fox News Nightmares', including being chased down the street by a naked Glenn Beck and waking up screaming as you discover that you have just spent the night with Sarah Palin."
Fracking brilliant.

Summary and Book Reviews
Unbroken: Summary and book reviews of Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand
When a book generates as much pre-publication buzz as Laura Hillenbrand's Unbroken, I tend to be a bit prejudiced against it from the start. I've found that rarely do books live up to the expectations I've developed for them based on the press they've generated. I was delighted to find, though, that Unbroken not only lives up to its hype, but far surpasses it. I can honestly say that I can't remember the last time a non-fiction book held my attention as well as this one did, from start to finish. It's the first book I've read in a very long time that I've wanted to force on all my friends. Yes, it's that good. (Reviewed by Kim Kovacs). Full Review (1328 words). Media Reviews

Northwest Sports Update
Some Bet Online reviews of Washington's 2011 season would point to a defense that couldn't stop anyone, but this year's unit should be much better and the Huskies are garnering talk of being a sleeper in the Pac-12. The Huskies probably won't win the division, but eight wins is attainable, possibly nine.
The offense may have to replace two of their three starters at receiver and a star at running back in Chris Polk, but quarterback Keith Price should be on the radar of those that use price per head (read more on price per head systems) systems, especially after his duel with Heisman winner Robert Griffin III of Baylor in the most entertaining bowl game of last season. The replacements at receiver are all solid recruits and furthermore, whoever is the running back will be behind a line with four returning starters. Online college football betting players know that having experience up front can go a long way for a team, especially if they have to fill holes elsewhere and the offensive line could be the reason that the Huskies really don't fall that much in terms of offense.
The defense was absolutely atrocious at times last year, but this year's unit will be anchored by a secondary that could be one of the best in the country. All four starters are back and they also have a few recruits that could step into the nickel and dime packages, and that will come in handy when the Huskies face off against USC, the NCAA football betting favorites in the Pac-12 and for the national title as well as they return off a postseason ban. Four of the front seven from last year return and that should help them improve, but Washington also have to navigate a new system under coordinator Justin Wilcox, who is going from a 4-3 to a 3-4.
The problem with Washington this year is that they have an insane start to their season. Four of their first six games feature LSU (road), Stanford (home), Oregon (road) and USC (home); that's three national-title contenders in the first half of the schedule. If the Huskies can get out of that with a .500 record, the second half of the slate is very manageable and you would have to think that they would learn a few things from playing the best. The defense is going to be the key and you should watch the secondary because that is going to come in handy in the pass-happy Pac-12. The Huskies aren't going to beat out Oregon in the North, but they could surprise some folks and they could be good for covering an extra spread in your online sports book.

Since we all know the end of the world is coming in 2013 — best git ready! Don't believe us? Here's 12 Reasons the World will End in 2012. But never fear — we've got 10 brilliant dumb ideas to make your last days on earth the best ever.
1. Stop doing laundry now
The end of days is coming — how much time might you waste washing stuff or bringing it to the cleaners? Time to dive into your closet and wear all that stuff you never let see the light of day. So what if people point and laugh at you? They'll be toast soon too.
2. Eat all you want
Sorry Weight Watchers, but you won't be seeing any of us in 2013 so it's time to party. Need some ideas on what you should and can eat when you don't live to suffer from high cholesterol, diabetes and obesity? Check out our Dumbest Things Americans Eat photo gallery. Oh and since we won't ever see the next NFL championship — best whip up some awesome Super Bowl Party Foods STAT.
3. Tell your boss what you really think of him or her
Won't that feel awesome? If you like them, great! If you don't, yeah, you'll be fired. But do you really want to spend these final moments trapped in a job you hate? No way!
4. Adopt all those cute dogs and cats who are in shelters
Poor puppies and kitties should spend the end of days in behind bars, right? Petting animals can lower blood pressure which will be very soothing when the skies rain fire and brimstone. Or heck — adopt a monkey — if it rips your face off or poos all over your living room, big whoop!
5. Buy an iPad 3 and an iPhone 5 and the biggest HDTV you can find
Impress all your friends and have fun — what credit card bill? Those things won't show up before the apocalypse arrives.
And feel free to ask people who are totally out of your league — maybe even ask some porn stars. Be sure to tell them the end of world is coming and they need not live with the embarrassment or guilt for long. Helpful hint: Dumbest Things that Will Get You Laid
7. Stop pinning things on Pinterest
I know it's hard but do you really want to waste your precious time pinning adorable Bento boxes?
8. Hit the beach and/or the tanning booth
You look pasty. Melanoma schmelanoma — if we're not seeing 2013 you're never going to hafta get your moles checked — go get yourself as burnt as Bon Jovi!
9. Post social network stupidity
Be an idiot on Facebook. Tweet naked pictures of yourself. Tell your high school chum their baby is ugly. You know you want to.
10. Tell the people you love that you love them
This is kind of like something you should always do but it probably takes your dumb rump the threat of certain death to do it. So, like, just do it already.
Get social with stupidity! Stalk us on Facebook and Twitter.
And follow blogger Susie on Twitter: @susiefelber

Davis County residents, however, have the chance to explore both at the Utah Botanical Center's upcoming Explore the Garden Family Night, which focuses on the trees in the center's Varga Arboretum. The event, set for June 25 from 6:30 to 8 p.m., will include both a guided tour by a USU Extension Specialist and tree-related art activities for all ages and skill levels.
"We want to give people the chance to enjoy parts of the garden they may have never been to before," said Jayne Mulford, the Utah House Coordinator at the USU Botanical Center. "We just want people to have fun, learn, and explore the world around them."
The June event is part of the botanical center's family night series, which was originally only a spring and fall event but expanded this year. Though there is a small fee for the arboretum tour – $3 per person, or $10 for a family of up to six people – the money is only to cover the increased overhead of the expanded events.
"We're asking for just a little cost to cover expenses," said Mulford, mentioning the presence of the extension specialist and the treat that will be included.

Quick launcher for the desktop
Desktop icons are not the only way to launch programs; in fact, a kicker that is not hidden by a muddle of windows is often preferable. Tablaunch is a flexible and attractive program launcher for the Linux desktop.
The kickers that come with the major desktop environments are full-fledged universal tools that offer a variety of features, including pag ers, menus, and clocks. This was too much of a good thing for developer D. Lam; as a user who preferred a simple window manager, he did not fancy the idea of cluttering his machine with the KDE or Gnome libraries. While shopping around for an alternative, D. Lam dis covered YeahLaunch, the launcher belonging to the YeahWM [1] window manager. This is a kicker that is easy on resources, and it automatically hides in the background when you don't need it. The only drawback, from D. Lam's point of view, was YeahLaunch's very plain appearance. This prompted him to fire up his editor and develop a new kicker based on YeahLaunch, which he dubbed Tablaunch [2]. Although Tab launch is still easy on memory, the new kicker has vastly improved optics, add ing options such as a zoom feature that activates when users hover the mouse over an icon. But if you prefer a more staid approach, Tablaunch is still an interesting option. If asked to do so, Tab launch will give you simple pushbuttons rather than icons, and that should keep even the strictest of purists happy.

Josh McDaniels speaks on Von Miller and Broncos defense
The New England Patriots coordinators spoke to the Boston-area press on Monday via conference call. The Pats offensive coordinator is Josh McDaniels, who was the Broncos' head coach from 2009 until he was fired with four games remaining in the 2010 season.
The Broncos have recovered nicely, thanks in part to selecting pass-rushing strongside linebacker Von Miller with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2011 draft. The No. 2 pick came courtesy of McDaniels leading the Broncos to a 4-12 record.


text: So I've had my Eastman 605 for about a month, and I'm love with it, but what suprises me is just how much of the violin lessons I had as a kid are suddenly relevant! I studied violin for 12 years under serious classical teachers (as my dad shelled out for private lessons), but I haven't picked up my violin in 20 years. When I tried fairly recently my fingers couldn't remember where to go and I was very frustrated -- like those years of guitar erased my memory. Imagine my surprise when I picked up my mandolin for the first time, and I was doing all kinds of runs and concertos from memory. Granted, it'll take few years to play a good tremolo, and it'll take forever to learn the nuance that makes mando such a special instrument. But, the more forgiving nature of the fretted neck is doing wonders for me as I shake the ice off my fingers, and they start again to react to all that violin knowledge. I wish I did this 20 years ago -- though I'm very thankful for my years playing guitar. Cool!

Born on March 13, 1985, Hirsch was raised in Topanga, CA, a historically bohemian enclave near Malibu where he lived with his father, David, an entrepreneur and producer, and his mother, Margaret Davenport, a visual artist and teacher who designed pop-up books. When his parents split, Hirsch moved with his mother to Santa Fe, NM, where as a middle school student, he landed his first show biz break in a local commercial. By his preteens, he was serious about acting. After returning to Los Angeles, he began landing appearances on "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch" (ABC, 1996-2003), "Third Rock from the Sun" (NBC, 1995-2001) and "Two of a Kind" (ABC, 1998-99). Hirsch took a turn toward the dramatic with episodes of "NYPD Blue" (ABC, 1993-2005) and "ER" (NBC, 1994-2010), before his career kicked into full gear when he landed a role as young Houdini in the movie-of-the-week, "Houdini" (TNT, 1998). He went on to star in "Gargantua" (Fox, 1998), a Jurassic Park-like tale that brought the 13-year-old actor to the Australian rainforest opposite Adam Baldwin and a large mechanical monster.
Hirsch made a major jump to the big screen in Jodie Foster's indie drama, "The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys" (2002), receiving positive reviews for playing one of two rebellious teens - the other played by Kieran Culkin - who fight boredom, hormones and the discipline of their parish school. In another period piece, Hirsch appeared opposite Kevin Kline's dedicated private boys school teacher in "The Emperor's Club" (2002), playing the cocky son of a West Virginia senator (Harris Yulin) who challenges the cloistered world of tradition and goes off the deep end of rebellion in flouting the school's rules. Hirsch followed up with the lighthearted "The Girl Next Door" (2004), a rather tepid comedy where he played a straight-laced high school kid who falls for the titular girl next door (Elisha Cuthbert), only to learn that she is a successful porn actress. The film opened to mixed reviews and sub-par box office, barely raking in $6 million despite its "Risky Business"-style approach.
In the offbeat "Mudge Boy" (2004), Hirsch earned positive notices for playing a young man who becomes unhinged in the wake of his mother's unexpected death. The drama "Imaginary Heroes" (2005) also dealt with family death, but revolved around the surviving son's relationship with his unconventional mother (Sigourney Weaver) and earned positive critical reviews, though the film only received limited release. In "Lords of Dogtown" (2005), Hirsch starred as Jay Adams, the enigmatic real-life skateboarder who revolutionized the sport in the mid-1970s, but lost out on potential fame and fortune when drugs and partying landed him behind bars. A former teenage skate rat himself, Hirsch received fine notices for his charismatic portrayal, but the film was an overall financial flop and co-star Heath Ledger received the majority of the press. Hirsch fared considerably better at the box office with "Alpha Dog" (2007), a fact-based chronicle of a cocky, upper-class 15-year-old whose drug dealing thug life made headlines after the kidnap and murder of another teen in 2000.
With the film adaptation of Jon Krakauer's "Into the Wild" (2007), Hirsch finally earned overwhelming accolades from critics and audiences alike. He starred in the true-to-life chronicle of Christopher McCandless, a philosophical 23-year-old post-grad who gave away his worldly possessions and set off on a mission to live off the land in remote Alaska, only to die from starvation. The Sean Penn-directed film topped critics' lists that year and earned Hirsch a number of accolades, including several critics' award nominations and a nod for Best Actor at the Screen Actors Guild Awards. He followed with a supporting role as a rising young member of a corrupt crime family in the little-seen pastiche "The Air I Breathe" (2008) and the critically maligned "Speed Racer" (2008), the highly-anticipated adaptation of the popular cult cartoon series directed by the Wachowski Brothers that was ultimately a commercial flop.
But Hirsch returned to prominence with a strong supporting turn as Cleve Jones, friend of openly gay San Francisco supervisor Harvey Milk (Sean Penn) in Gus Van Sant's highly praised biopic, "Milk" (2008). Though Penn received the lion's share of critical acclaim - not to mention the Academy Award for Best Actor - Hirsch was duly noted for his strong performance. After narrating the Disney sports documentary "X Games 3D: The Movie" (2009), he had a supporting role as a Vietnam War veteran in Ang Lee's period drama "Taking Woodstock" (2009) before being featured as one of several celebrities and activists who climb Mount Kilimanjaro to raise social awareness for global causes in the made-for-MTV documentary "Summit on the Summit" (2010). Back in the feature world, he starred as a none-too-bright pot dealer who plots to kill his mother to pay back a debt, only to run afoul of a cop moonlighting as a contract killer in William Friedkin's little-seen black comedy, "Killer Joe" (2011). Hirsch next joined a top-notch cast that included John Travolta, Blake Lively, Selma Hayek and Benicio del Toro for Oliver Stone's crime thriller "Savages" (2012), which was based on a popular novel by Don Winslow.

"I think a lot of actors feel like they have to make everyone happy. I feel like that too in a way, but I also know I'm there to play a role. I don't look at it like it's a getting-to-know-you experience. What's important to me is the performance. But, when were not shooting, it's completely different." - Hirsch to actor Vincent D'Onofrio, in Interview magazine, April 2004 |
"Acting is like being very willing to battle or achieve something, Playing another person, in the dark. And being happy about it, being professional." - Hirsch to actor Ben Foster, in Interview magazine, February 2007 |

Connecticut Supreme Court Tackles Judicial Immunity For Conservators
April 16th, 2012
Before we jump into this landmark case from Connecticut, let's take a very brief look at the procedural and factual history of Gross v. Rell (concurrence and dissent here).
Daniel Gross had a leg infection, which was treated in New York. After being discharged from the New York hospital, he went to Waterbury to further convalesce. He was admitted to Waterbury Hospital because of complications, and nine days later a hospital employee filed an application for appointment of conservator in Waterbury Probate Court. An attorney was appointed for Gross in the involuntary conservatorship action. A conservator was ultimately appointed, and a week or two later, the conservator placed Gross in the 'locked ward' of Grove Manor Nursing Home, Inc.
Gross filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus, which was granted. A free man, Gross then brought a claim in federal court alleging that his civil rights were violated by the conservator, the attorney, and the nursing home. The federal court dismissed the case finding that the conservator, attorney, and nursing home were entitled to immunity from liability. Gross appealed and the federal appellate court certified several questions of Connecticut law to the Connecticut Supreme Court, mostly dealing with the immunity questions.
Well, how did the Connecticut Supreme Court respond? (more…)

Ask any passionate angler, hunter or outdoors person what he or she loves about nature and getting outdoors, and key points come up, including a love of connecting with nature, being able to relax and spending quality time outdoors with friends and families.

BY MARCY SHORTUSE - It's been a peaceful 2011 around here, and in Boca Grande that's usually a good thing. As the year dwindles down to its last few hours, it's time to reflect on what has happened this year. We realize that this line-up of events may not mean much to the infrequent visitor, but every little detail in a seemingly-innocuous monthly line-up can elicit memories for all of us who spend a good portion of our time here.Join us in a trip back in time, through the year that was 2011.
Almost three-quarters of a ton of food was collected during the Boca Grande Christmas Food Drive. The Harry Chapin Food Bank of Southwest Florida was the recipient, and Joyce Jacobs, the associate director of the food bank (above, in red) stood with Jim Cochrun and Bob Elliot when she picked up the van on December 21. Representatives for the Boca Grande food drive said they surpassed last year's food collection by 250 pounds, with a total of 1,480 pounds of food.
It is believed to be the most successful Christmas food drive ever in the island's history.
A barrel for food donations will be available at the administrative office of the Boca Grande United Methodist Church until the spring food drive begins in mid-February.
BY LIZA STROUT - A huge part of a child's life is their education, and whether that education is a good or bad one can make a huge impact in the rest of their lives.
Emily Steffan, a teacher from New Orleans, is the daughter of Dr. Michael and Angela Steffan of Boca Grande. She is one of the four panel members that will discuss this country's educational system in the next segment of the Friends of Boca Grande Community Center Film Forum series of movie viewings and panel discussions based upon the movies.
