Danny Boyle Movies
One of Britain's most celebrated breakthrough talents of the '90s, director and producer
Danny Boyle
made his name with his acclaimed 1996 adaptation of Irvine Welsh's
. An angry, scabrously funny film about a group of Edinburgh heroin addicts that took a non-judgmental approach to drug use, the film won equal parts praise and controversy, as well as lasting fame for its director.
Born in Manchester, England, on October 20, 1956,
grew up going to the cinema. Somewhat ironically -- given that he didn't set foot in a theatre until he was 18 -- he started his career in the theatre, as it seemed to him the most accessible way of getting into the arts. He first worked with the Joint Stock Theatre Company and then with the Royal Court Theatre Upstairs, where he was the Artistic Director from 1982 until 1985. In 1985, he became the Deputy Director of the Royal Court Theatre, where he stayed until 1987.
During the '80s,
also began directing for television, making TV films and serials. He made his feature directorial debut with
Shallow Grave
in 1994. A stylish, darkly humorous psychological thriller set in a posh flat in Edinburgh's New Town, it was the first collaboration between director
, producer
Andrew Macdonald
, and screenwriter
John Hodge
. It received strong reviews on both sides of the Atlantic and was a commercial success in Britain. Two years later,
, and
(along with
Ewan McGregor
, who had starred in
Shallow Grave
) re-teamed to make
. The huge success of the film -- it became the U.K.'s second most popular film in history to date, after
Four Weddings and a Funeral
-- propelled its makers and star
into the international spotlight, and it became one of the most provocative and talked-about films of the decade.
followed up
in 1997 with another
A Life Less Ordinary
. A romantic comedy featuring karaoke and a pair of ferocious angels (
Holly Hunter
Delroy Lindo
), it starred
Cameron Diaz
as mismatched lovers at odds with the law and each other. Despite the anticipation surrounding the film, it met with heavily mixed reviews and virtually dissipated at the box office. That same year,
served as executive producer for
Twin Town
, a surprisingly popular Welsh film that featured much of the rough-edged humor of
's previous work.
After passing up the opportunity to direct the fourth
opted to make
The Beach
(2000), an adaptation of
Alex Garland
's acclaimed novel of the same name. A story of paradise gone wrong, it was shot in Thailand and starred
Leonardo DiCaprio
as a young American who encounters the darker side of human nature while backpacking through Asia. Though it was anticipated to be quite a big film for
The Beach
ultimately suffered from not only a severe critical backlash but also incurred the wrath of
fans by altering the bleak ending of the novel for a more safe mainstream coda. If
A Life Less Ordinary
had disappointed fans,
The Beach
made them out and out angry, and for his next two films,
Vacuuming Completely Nude in Paradise
(both 2001),
would go back to the basics. Even if neither of those films ultimately received wide release (they were shot for U.K. television), they did offer
the chance to return to his low-budget roots and experiment with digital video -- which was the format he would eventually turn to for his next wide-release effort,
28 Days Later
Perhaps his most successful and widely embraced film since
28 Days Later
offered a harrowing vision of a post-apocalyptic London ravaged by the terrifying effects of a "rage virus." A sort of updating of the
George A. Romero
zombie mainstays,
's film differed in that unlike the creatures in
Night of the Living Dead
and its sequels, the creatures in this film did not stagger mindlessly but attacked their victims with violent vengeance. A critical and financial success both in the U.K. and the U.S.,
28 Days Later
scored a direct hit at the box office, thanks to its energetic thrills and healthy word of mouth. On a curious historical note, the film became something of a rarity when, months after its initial stateside release in June of 2003, it was rereleased into theaters with an alternate ending attached to the last reel.
After a brief return to short films with the sci-fi themed comedy Alien Love Triangle,
returned to feature-film territory with a
, a comedy drama concerning two boys who -- despite having the good fortune of stumbling across a healthy sum of money stolen from a nearby bank -- must quickly spend the money before the U.K. switches to the Euro.
He reteamed with Cillian Murphy in 2007 for the sci-fi film Sunshine, but it was 2008's Slumdog Millionaire that made him an internationally known filmmaker. The tale of love and struggle and game shows in India swept the year end award race capturing Oscars for Best Picture and Best Director. He returned to the awards race ttwo years later with the gripping drama 127 Hours. He had a hit on stage directing a version of Frankenstein in which Jonny Lee Miller and Benedict Cumberbatch would regularly swap the roles of Victor Frankenstein and the Monster. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

The feature film debut of Scottish director Danny Boyle was a dark, hip, Generation X comedy about a trio of Edinburgh roommates whose narcissistic greed fuels murder and betrayal. Boisterous journalist Alex (Ewan McGregor), flirtatious doctor Juliet (Kerry Fox), and meek accountant David (Christopher Eccleston) possess very different personalities, but the roommates are bonded in mutual, self-absorbed cynicism. Seeking a fourth boarder to share the rent for their stylish flat, they cruelly dismiss several candidates before settling on Hugo (Keith Allen), whose air of detachment meets the roommates' standard of coolness. Hugo's reserve masks criminal involvement, however, as the roommates discover when they find him dead in bed from a drug overdose, with a valise containing enormous amounts of cash. Their nascent greed overwhelms them, and the trio dismembers and buries Hugo, stealing his money. Only David, who understands finance, seems to realize that someone's eventually going to seek out such a large sum. As both drug dealers and police get closer to figuring out the friends' secret, shy, nerdy David becomes violently paranoid, while Juliet's allegiance switches back and forth between her roommates. Boyle teamed subsequently with producer Andrew Macdonald and screenwriter John Hodge on several high-profile films. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

Mark Renton (Ewan McGregor), a young man with few prospects and fewer ambitions, lives in economically depressed Edinburgh. Like most of his friends, Renton is a heroin addict who loves the drug's blissful nothingness; financing his habit also provides excitement and challenges that his life otherwise lacks. Renton's two best friends are also junkies: Sick Boy (Jonny Lee Miller), a snappy dresser obsessed with James Bond, and Spud (Ewan Bremner), a guileless nerd who suggests Pee Wee Herman's debauched cousin. Renton and his pals also hang out with Begbie (Robert Carlyle), a borderline psychotic who loathes junkies even though he drinks like a fish. After one too many brushes with the law, Renton kicks heroin and moves to London, where he finds a job, a flat, and something close to peace of mind. However, Sick Boy, Begbie, and Spud all arrive at his doorstep on the trail of a big score, leading Renton back into drugs and crime. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Twin Town
In British television writer-director Kevin Allen's feature film debut, the industrial town of Swansea, Wales, is viewed through the post-punk lens of disaffected youth. Lower-class, crude, drug-addled brothers Julian and Jeremy (played by real-life brothers Llyr Evans and Rhys Ifans), steal cars, smoke dope, and terrorize the town on their joy rides. They are thought to be twins but really aren't. Their father Fatty (Hugh Ceredig) is injured while working for corrupt contractor Bryn Cartwright (William Thomas). Jeremy and Julian want to be compensated with money for their dad's injuries, but Cartwright refuses. Posing as a respectable businessman, he is actually a drug trafficker in cahoots with two corrupt policemen, Greyo (Dorien Thomas) and Terry (Dougray Scott). Greyo is smitten with the brothers' sister, who is a prostitute. The "twins" go after Cartwright and his associates with a vengeance, inflicting sick brutalities on their pets and their families. ~ Michael Betzold, Rovi

The acclaimed Trainspotting trio (director Danny Boyle, producer Andrew Macdonald, scripter John Hodge) reunited for this update of '30s screwball comedies and '40s fantasies, such as Here Comes Mr. Jordan(1941), Angel on My Shoulder(1946), Down to Earth(1947), and the 1946 Stairway to Heaven (co-directed by Macdonald's grandfather, Emeric Pressburger). Tossed together for $12 million, the result is a combination salad, a surreal salmagundi with an added animated sequence for lagniappe. In Heaven, Gabriel (Dan Hedaya) sends angels O'Reilly (Holly Hunter) and Jackson (Delroy Lindo) down to Earth to make two people fall in love. If the angels fail, they must remain on Earth. The target couple: well-to-do Celine (Cameron Diaz) and impoverished, aspiring novelist Robert (Ewan McGregor), a janitor at the corporation owned by her wealthy father, Naville (Ian Holm). Robert loses his job, kidnaps Celine, and the two retreat to a mountain hideout where they discuss splitting the ransom. O'Reilly and Jackson plan to make Robert and Celine love each other by putting them in jeopardy, so the two angels get hired on by Naville as bounty hunters. Although Robert and Celine argue, they also sing and dance together at a local karaoke bar, a scene evocative of both Dennis Potter's Karaoke and the memorable karaoke performance by Cameron Diaz in My Best Friend's Wedding. The angels make few gains, but when Jackson is on the brink of killing Robert, Celine comes to his rescue. Naville cancels Celine's credit card, so she robs a bank. Robert is shot during the robbery, and Celine has dentist Elliot (Stanley Tucci) remove the bullet. Robert awakens, finds the two together, and knocks out Elliot, prompting an argument that leads Celine and Robert to separate. Plagued by their own problems, the angels kidnap Celine themselves, and as complications mount, Gabriel eventually has God intervene. Filmed in Utah, although Hodge originally planned the story to take place in France and England. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

For his first major project after the overwhelming success of Titanic, Leonardo Di Caprio took a risky path in this adaptation of Alex Garland's acclaimed novel, directed by Danny Boyle. Richard (Di Caprio) is an American backpacking through Asia with a handful of friends from Europe. While in Bangkok, he meets a mad Scotsman who calls himself Daffy Duck (Robert Carlyle). Shortly before Mr. Duck kills himself, he gives Richard a crude map to a place in Thailand that he claims is paradise on earth: beautiful, unspoiled, and uninhabited. For lack of anything better to do, Richard and his companions try to locate the spot, which, after a dangerous and taxing journey, takes them to a beach as beautiful as Duck said it would be. Richard and his friends settle in, but before long they discover that they are not alone; a large group of fellow travelers has already dug themselves in, and they have established a community with the same social evils that Richard was hoping to leave behind. Just as important, there is an army of natives who grow marijuana in the nearby hills and do not appreciate the presence of these visitors. The Beach proved controversial during production, partly due to production delays and shifting release dates, partly due to environmental concerns after crew members bulldozed parts of the Thai island of Phi Phi Le for the planting of non-native trees. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

British filmmaker Danny Boyle offers a darkly comic glimpse of life in Britain in this short feature (shot on digital video equipment) produced for the BBC. In Strumpet, Jenna Gee plays the title character, a young woman who plays guitar in a punk rock band. One day, Strumpet is sexually assaulted by a lunatic truck driver, but she's rescued at the last minute by Strayman (Christopher Eccleston), an eccentric street poet. Strayman takes the shaken Strumpet back to his apartment (where his verse is scrawled all over the walls), and the two get to know each other. Before long, a relationship has developed between them, and Strumpet begins adding guitar accompaniment to Strayman's ranting verse. Knockoff (Stephen Walters), one of Strayman's neighbors, overhears them improvising and thinks they may have commercial potential; he offers to become their manager, and sets out to score them a record deal, though polishing their rough edges into a saleable product turns out to be a challenge. While produced for British television, this and another short feature by Boyle, Vacuuming Completely Nude in Paradise, also made the rounds of the international film festival circuit in 2001. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

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

Director Danny Boyle revisits a theme from his Shallow Grave and Trainspotting days -- greed -- but focuses on a much younger protagonist with this comedy drama. Millions opens with recent widower Ronnie (James Nesbitt) moving his two precocious pre-pubescent sons to the suburbs. Missing his mother and the comforts of his old neighborhood, the young Damian (Alex Etel) builds a cardboard-box fort on the outskirts of the suburb, where one day his placid introvert existence is literally crushed by a giant gym bag full of thousands of pounds' worth of cash. Less concerned with the origin of the money than with how to spend it, Damian and his older brother, Anthony (Lewis McGibbon), decide to keep it a secret from their father, which becomes an increasingly tricky proposition as the days pass. His conscience getting in the way of his spending, Damian debates the ethics of his ill-gotten gains with a handful of imaginary saints, and begins to try to spend his cash a little more altruistically. But his charitable deeds inadvertently attract the attention of a mysterious, threatening man who's desperate to get his hands on the money. Marking a distinct change of pace for Boyle after the horror film 28 Days Later, Millions world-premiered at the 2004 Toronto Film Festival. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi

The devastating rage virus that annihilated the British Isles mysteriously resurfaces in Goya Award-winning director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo's sequel to the Danny Boyle-directed horror hit that terrified audiences worldwide by offering a breathless new take on the familiar zombie mythos. Six months has passed since the rage virus caused British residents to indiscriminately murder and destroy everything in their paths, and now the U.S. military has declared victory in the war against the rapidly spreading infection. As the reconstruction process gets underway and the first wave of refugees return to British shores, a family separated by the devastation is happily reunited. During the initial outbreak, Don Harris (Robert Carlyle) and his wife Alice (Catherine McCormack) sat holed up with a small band of survivors in a remote farmhouse. Their kids well out of harm's way at a remote boarding school, Don and Alice's outlook for the future is decidedly bright until all hell breaks loose in the country and Don just barely manages to escape the clutches of the infected. The joy of later seeing his son Andy (Mackintosh Muggleton) and daughter Tammy (Imogen Poots) as repopulation efforts get underway in London is short-lived, however, when an innocent bid to reconnect with the past sets into motion a tragic series of events. Now, just as society struggles to sort through the rubble and rebuild London from the ground up, the virus that nearly destroyed a nation strikes back with a vengeance. Jeremy Renner, Rose Byrne, and Harold Perrineau, Jr. co-star in the frightful sequel, which highlights the dangers of declaring victory in the calm before the storm. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Accused of cheating and desperate to prove his innocence, an eighteen-year-old orphan from the slums of Mumbai reflects back on his tumultuous life while competing to win 20 million rupees on India's Who Wants to Be a Millionaire in Danny Boyle's inspirational drama. Jamal Malik (Dev Patel) may not have a penny to his name, but that could all change in a matter of hours. He's one question away from taking the top prize on India's most popular television game show, but as with everything else in Jamal's life, it isn't going to be easy. Arrested by police under suspicion of cheating, Jamal is interrogated by the authorities. The police simply can't believe that a common "slumdog" could possibly possess the knowledge to get this far in the game, and in order to convince them of how he gained such knowledge, Jamal begins reflecting back on his childhood. As young boys, Jamal and his older brother, Salim, lived in squalor, and lost their mother in a mob attack on Muslims. Subsequently forced to rely on their own wits to survive, the desperate siblings fell back on petty crime, eventually befriending adorable yet feisty young Latika as they sought out food and shelter on the unforgiving streets of Mumbai. Though life on the streets was never easy, Jamal's experiences ultimately instilled in him the knowledge he needed to answer the tough questions posed to him on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. And though Jamal makes a convincing case for himself, one question still remains: why would a young man with no apparent desire for wealth or fame be so determined to win big on a national game show? Of course, it won't be long until everyone finds out the answer to this burning question, because as Jamal sits down to find out whether he will be rich beyond his wildest dreams, 60 million viewers remain transfixed to their televisions eager to see if he'll correctly answer the final question. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

James Franco stars in director Danny Boyle's inspiring survival drama based on the incredible true story of Aron Ralston, who became trapped alone in a Utah canyon for days after slipping on a loose rock, and resorted to extraordinary measures in order to make it out of his dire predicament alive. An experienced hiker and climber, Ralston (Franco) is very much in his element when he parks his truck by a mountain near Moab, UT, hops on his bike, and peddles to the middle of nowhere. Later, when Ralston encounters a pair of young female hikers who have gotten lost while searching for a local landmark, he jovially shows them a sight that most casual hikers miss before bidding them farewell and continuing on his way. Drifting through the canyons alone, deep in thought, however, the explorer who presumed he was ready for anything quickly discovers just how fast things can spin out of control when a rock gives way as he shimmies down a crevice, and pins his hand to the unforgiving wall of stone. Over the course of the next 127 hours, Ralston tries everything he can think of to free himself, flashing back to small but memorable events in his life -- as well as forward to the future that he might enjoy should he manage to wiggle free -- as his body begins the slow process of shutting down. Eventually realizing that the only way out is to leave part of himself behind, the exhausted, delirious adventurer draws his cheap made-in-China multi-tool, and does what it takes to survive. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A thieving art auctioneer seeks the help of an alluring hypnotherapist in order to repair his damaged memory and recover the treasured Goya painting that he stashed following a brazen heist in this kinetic thriller reteaming Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire director Danny Boyle with Trainspotting and Shallow Grave screenwriter John Hodge. Adapted from the 2001 made-for-television feature by writer/director Joe Ahearne (who collaborated with Hodge on the screenplay), Trance finds prominent art auctioneer Simon (James McAvoy) dealing with brain damage after he teams with crime boss Franck (Vincent Cassel) to steal a Goya from an auction, then tries unsuccessfully to double-cross his fierce accomplice. In response, Franck knocks Simon unconscious with a vicious blow to the skull, wiping out any memory concerning the whereabouts of the prized painting. When Simon claims to have no recollection of where he hid the stolen masterpiece, Franck and his crew grudgingly agree to let talented hypnotherapist Elizabeth (Rosario Dawson) try and pinpoint its location. Now, the deeper Elizabeth probes into Simon's subconscious, the more complex the mystery seems to grow. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Granddad runs marathon for Chard schoolboy's charity
1:00pm Sunday 20th October 2013 in News By Daniel Milligan
THE grandfather of a Chard schoolboy is running the London Marathon for a charity close to his family's heart.
Paul Blackburn, 57, will run his first marathon in aid of Hearing Dogs for Deaf People – the same charity his five-year-old grandson Logan McKerrow donated money to when he sold his replica Olympic torch on eBay.
Logan, then aged five, made his torch from paper, tissue paper, felt and foil and has so far raised £32,000, had 48 different 'torch bearers' and travelled 6,180 miles around the country.
Paul is hoping to raise at least £2,000 for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People as well when he runs 26.3 miles around London on Sunday, April 16.
The family are putting on a fundraising afternoon at Lift The Latch, Blacklands Lane, Forton, Chard on Sunday from 2-4pm to help kickstart their campaign.
On a Facebook page set up to help raise awareness about Paul's marathon, it says: "Come along if you're a keen or budding gardener and see the lovely Autumn colours of this fabulous garden. There will be refreshments and cakes, a duck race, name the dog, win the wine and ping pong challenge."
There will also be a fully trained hearing hog and a hearing dog puppy at the event.
The family say they chose Hearing Dogs for Deaf People as their charity was because Logan and his mum Kerry McKerrow went through a list of children's charities and Logan picked the Let's Hear it for Deaf Children Campaign run by Hearing Dogs for Deaf People.
Hearing Dogs for Deaf People is a national charity which trains dogs to alert deaf people to important sounds and danger signals in the home and public buildings.

Christmas parade entries accepted through Tuesday
The Greater Newton Area Chamber of Commerce still is looking for a few good entries into the 2012 Lighted Christmas Parade, which will make its way through the downtown area shortly after 6 p.m. next Friday, Nov. 23.
"We only have about seven or eight (entries)," said Darrell Sarmento, executive director of the Chamber. "It's usually never as long as the Fourth of July parade but usually by the time push comes to shove, it usually gets up to about 20 or 25."
The theme of this year's parade is "Christmas On the Silver Screen," and entries already have claimed such famous holiday movies as "A Christmas Story," "It's A Wonderful Life," "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" and "Shrek the Halls."

But we didn't win.
We could've won it if we didn't concede a 2nd, and we conceded a 2nd because we needed to put so much manpower into attack as we only have one style of attack.
You can argue we also conceded the 2nd because of no Song but that again falls back on reliance on a single player, which is why we need another DM IMO.
My entire point here isn't to slate our players, or the team today. Rather, it's that we need to be active in the xfer window, to get those 3 players I mentioned so we have a more well-rounded team/squad which will make it easier to win games like today.

Handling redundancy
27/06/2012 , 5:11 PM by Fiona Poole
Fairfax announced today that in July they will open opening a round of voluntary redundancies at their masthead newspapers.
It's the beginning of major restructure for them... And a period of iinsecurity for their staff.
But job losses is something many firms and organisations have to manage - Qantas, Westpac, Blue Scope Steel... they've all had to cut staff recently.
So how do eomplyees cope in this sort of environment when redundacy packages are being offered, and when collegaues and management are jumping ship?
Organisational psychologist and Director of Voice Project Dr Peter Langford joined Fi with some advice.

The Monochrome Monologues
In reality, printers and copiers may, in fact, be built just as well as a digital press. A quick look into the rated duty cycles of the various digital presses would show a wide range. And what about the continuous feed devices? They are much more press like, yet few, if any, are referred to as digital presses.
Q: Most quick and small commercial printers are running hybrid digital/offset workflows. What criteria should they consider when deciding whether a monochrome job should be sent to a press or a digital output device?
A: Basically, you should process the job based upon the particular variables at play. Most printers know their costs. If they don't, they should start there. Then you start factoring in the other variables: time to produce, type of substrate, quality, type of piece, finishing requirements, customer preference, other jobs in the queue, when is it due, how is the copy delivered, etc, etc.
In general, processing of digital files is less labor intensive than offset, as well as the production of the sheet. If offset workflows were the most cost effective method, we wouldn't see nearly as much migration to digital as is currently being experienced by the industry. The fact that we are seeing the shift of work from offset to digital supports the conclusion that digital is more profitable.
Q: Are your customers seeing growth in the demand for digital monochrome jobs or are they doing different kinds of jobs than they've done in the past?
A: It is still anticipated that the growth will continue in color and monochrome will basically be flat. However, due to the tough economic times, there appears to be a shift away from color to the use of monochrome, especially for non-critical documents.
Customer centric documents continue to be done in color. One area of growth is personalization jobs—jobs that relate to the recipient on a personal basis.
Q: With so many MFPs and digital devices placed in offices, how can print service providers differentiate their services to continue receiving monochrome jobs?
A: It could be level of service, personal service, cost, flexibility, hours of operation, ease of use. The list goes on forever. If you don't differentiate yourself, you get lumped into the generic vendor pool, where price is king.
My advice would be to gather the entire company together and ask the question: What makes us special? Why would someone want to purchase from me, versus the other guy? It needs to be an honest, non-subjective dialogue. The answers to those questions provide the foundation for crafting your value proposition.
Q: Do you see any of your customers running monochrome jobs on color machines? If so, what are the economies of scale involved in this practice?
A: Generally, it's been the cost of the toner that's been the determining factor. In the past, the monochrome devices could offer toner at significantly less cost than black on color devices. That trend is starting to change. Some of the new color pricing models have narrowed the difference. However, you also have to look at the duty cycle, speed, etc., of the color equipment. Sometimes it'll be less expensive to purchase and use a monochrome device in addition to your color device, than purchasing a large color device. For me, I still tend to like having both a monochrome and a color device. It provides me more flexibility to meet the needs of the next customer that walks through the door.
Q: What should printers know about the new generation of monochrome digital devices that they may not be aware of?
A: Monochrome devices will continue to increase speeds and duty cycles. Offerings of inline finishing will continue to increase as they provide better economies on a personnel basis (i.e.: more production from an individual). Traditional offline binding (e.g.: perfect binding) has now been brought inline, and is offered at very attractive prices in comparison to their predecessors. Handling a wider range of substrates will also increase.
Océ North America
Eric De Goeijen, Production Printing Systems Division, Vice President of Marketing
Q: There is a lot of confusing terminology describing digital monochrome output devices in the current marketplace. How do you differentiate between a printer or copier/printer and a digital press? (For example, is the determining factor the duty cycle, speed, resolution, service reliability, or something else entirely?) Or is it all just marketing semantics?

Hopes that central banks in China, the U.S. and Europe are gearing up for more stimulus measures to help their respective economies are keeping markets buoyant.
Expectations of action by the People's Bank of China were compounded Tuesday when the National Energy Administration said electricity consumption growth slowed in July, a sign of slowing industrial output.
"Investors are expecting some kind of action like an adjustment of interest rates or reserve ratio requirements after figures showed electricity consumption grew only 4.5 percent from a year earlier," said Peng Yunliang, a Shanghai-based analyst.
European stocks were higher in early trading. Britain's FTSE 100 rose 0.5 percent to 5,862.37. Germany's DAX added 0.8 percent to 6,963.42 and France's CAC-40 added 0.4 percent to 3,440.43.
Wall Street also appeared poised to open higher. Dow Jones industrial futures rose 0.2 percent to 13,161 while S&P 500 futures added 0.2 percent to 1,405.80.
Traders were also waiting for the release of retail sales data from the U.S. for a clearer reading of the health of the world's biggest economy. Other U.S. economic data this week includes July industrial production figures.
Tom Kaan of Louis Capital Markets in Hong Kong said investors were holding back from big moves as the summer season winds down and eurozone leaders return from vacation to resume deliberating the region's debt crisis.
"I think if you look around globally, even on Wall Street, the volumes are pretty dismal," Kaan said.
Japan's Nikkei 225 rose 0.5 percent to close at 8,929.88, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng added 1.1 percent to 20,291.68. South Korea's Kospi rose 1.3 percent to 1,956.96, and Australia's S&P/ASX 200 gained 0.2 percent to 4,292.20.
On mainland China, the Shanghai Composite Index gained 0.3 percent to 2,142.53. The smaller Shenzhen Composite Index gained 0.7 percent to 893.80.
Meanwhile, Greece said Monday that the country's deep recession had eased slightly, although the economy still contracted 6.2 percent in the second quarter from the same period last year. In the first quarter, the contraction was 6.5 percent.
Stan Shamu of IG Markets in Melbourne, Australia, said in an email commentary that "the pace of Greece's economic meltdown was not quite as steep as the few economists who try to forecast the data expected."
Greece is being kept solvent by international bailout loans, granted in return for a harsh austerity program.
Benchmark oil for September delivery rose 55 cents to $93.28 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract fell 14 cents to finish at $92.73 per barrel in New York on Monday.
In currency trading, the euro rose to $1.2369 from $1.2336 late Monday in New York. The dollar rose to 78.52 yen from 78.43 yen.

Comment on Tomodachi ga Sukunai Little Sister Oral Insertion Anime by 3rdEye:
Yeah, the order is really messed up.
However we reached a crossroad where I don't even want to argue, as I actually see your concern, but our view on the topic is really, really far away.
For one, you say K-On are lolis; I say they are old hags. I'm sure you think VividRed is full of lolis; I say otherwise.
I guess when people really hate something, they will see it in everything; while if they really love something, like me, they will always think there aren't enough of them.
I'm just stating, being in a position of a lolicon, all they can have is limited and 2D, I really don't understand why a person with normal tastes, who got their needs covered in but all media and is clearly supported by society feels the need to complain about a niche character type in a niche media.
Thank you for being relatively reasonable, despite your evident disgust in lolis, and possibly lolicons.
3rdEye made other comments on this post:
- Tomodachi ga Sukunai Little Sister Oral Insertion Anime:
I like lolis because they are the most beautiful things in existence. Sexuality isn't their main point, but if it comes down to that, they're still the best. Altogether aesthetical orgasm.
- Tomodachi ga Sukunai Little Sister Oral Insertion Anime:
If you mean it's dying out almost completely, then I agree.
- Tomodachi ga Sukunai Little Sister Oral Insertion Anime:
That's a load of crap if I've heard any. Also focuses TOO MUCH? What, just because they finally got a damn episode that featured them more than the usual zero-fanservice treatment? No, this series has too little loli, if anything. God damn why can't they be the main/love interest for once?
- Tomodachi ga Sukunai Little Sister Oral Insertion Anime:
Nice loliphobic messed up view on things there. 1. Sena not looking more than 14? Please, she looks 100% grown-up no problem. 2. Loli popularity? Once again, you must see lolis even where there aren't any; lolis are very niche especially nowadays; in fact aside from Haganai you can hardly come upon any in running series; and even here they are freaking minor characters. 3. You really should get your eyes checked if you think any girls involved are "entering toddler territory". 4. Liking loli …
- Tomodachi ga Sukunai Little Sister Oral Insertion Anime:
I highly doubt that. It's not like doing their scenes with the same details as Sena/Yozora's would put it more on a risque ground, legally speaking. This is just where the animation staff's taste really comes through.
Recent comments by 3rdEye:
- Feminists Demand "Sexist" Makoto Aida Guro Art Ban:
They'll bite anything that depicts young girls or lolis to any extent, won't they? God, these bitter femnazis are the worst living beings on Earth, haven't they noticed that they have long reached the pinnacle of what feminists' goals were back even a century ago, and are now way past anything they hoped for? If things continue the way they are, it's not unlikely men have come up with their own faction to get equality.
- Vividred Operation Pierces the Heavens:
There's only, like, one loli in the whole show.
- Ebiten Further Nipplified:
Not into big breasts or traps.
- AKB48: "We'll Sue You If You Call This Child Porn!":
Breasts = sexual object to the media, and to the men of world. And this case, where they're promoting the sexual aspect of one of their idol is surely no different. The closest thing I could equate this is if a little girl embraced a man in boxer, just above the "danger zone", but still clearly in a sensual place still.
- AKB48: "We'll Sue You If You Call This Child Porn!":
Why forgive them? Just because double standards? Men got in jail because of much less than this. While essentially I wouldn't go as far as to call this CP, but in regards to the treatment of the same thing with switched genders, I'd still say; to jail with them.

I have an EVGA 780i motherboard - that's a keeper for me at this time. There are 2 components that I might be able to upgrade (My system is Water Cooled - and I don't want to invest to much - nor buy new water blocks if I can help it). 8gb ram (maxed out) E8400 dual core (clocked to 3.6ghz) <<good cpu, but would a quad core do better?) Evga 260gtx core 216 (love this, but if I can find a better card inexpensively enough - double plus if it can use the same water block!) Or add in a second 260gtx to go SLI? All suggestions welcome guys... I'm not a major FPS gamer - play mainly Supreme Commander Forged Alliance (believe it!)... So - what say you?
I think if Supreme Commander is your main game, then a Quad would likely definitely be the best choice. If you drop a Q9650/9550 in there and get it up to 3.6GHz+ you will be set CPU wise for a few years to come with games. Then focus on the graphics card next.
Thanks. WOW, even with the core i series out and running INTEL is pretty damn proud of those Core2Quads! Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 Yorkfield 2.83GHz LGA 775 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor BX80569Q9550 -- 275$$!
$275? You could move over to a Phenom II quad for that plus have some left. Where are you pricing that chip at?
That is because these chips are just that damn good. The Q9650 is only a percent or two behind the 965 BE and the 965 has a 400MHz clock speed advantage. Clock for clock the Q9650/9550 is faster than the Phenom II, and both will pretty much top out at about the same clock speeds under air.
Right. The reason I'm kind of tight focused here is to have no requirement to replace or modify my cooling loops in any way...... even if I add a second video card the second/new card would stay on AIR cooling...
Not when you factor in a board comparable to the 780i w/ 3 true PCI-E x16 slots that can push the 965 over 4GHz to compete with the firstname.lastname@example.com+.
I'd have to completely redo the cooling loops, and, perhaps need to buy new waterblock.... But great discussion guys! keep it coming!
Never said anything about motherboards besides OP is running a single card anyways and Tri SLI is a waste. 780i can be resold also if need be.
True. But Im only going to have a day to get the system back up and working... If I just upgrade the CPU I won't have to reinstall the OS, nor will I if I just upgrade the video card... How are the 400 series cards compared to my 260gtx?
Reinstall? What's that? Got Windows 7? It migrates pretty well between different hardware architectures, i'd say about 99.9999999% near flawless. Yes, my point is, I am still on the same installation of Windows 7 that I've migrated between AMD and Intel about 4 times now over the past year. No problems here. Whats the fun in that!? @newtekie Another point regarding your 3x 16x slots. 8x slots arent noticeably slower anyways.
LOL I've been playing with Windows since before 3.0... This version was upgraded from win98 to Win2k to XP, then registry hacked onto XP64... through 3 different mainboards / CPUs. It just takes more than a minute... and if you forget a step, you start over (better have a backup!) Win7 has some issues that I just don't care for.
It is always best to re-install whenever changing the motherboard, even when using the same platform. Yes, Win7 and Vista will handle switching over and usually work, however it is never as smooth as a fresh install. As for the x8 slots, yes there really isn't a noticeable difference, but even still to get a decent board that will push a 965BE up over 4GHz is going to bring the cost up to the same as just getting a Q9650 or even higher. Then add to that the fact that all decent AMD boards these days use DDR3 and the 780i uses DDR2, so add some more cost on top. Yes, he can sell his old RAM and motherboard to recoup some of the cost, but the used hardware segment isn't exactly booming, and it probably wouldn't get $150 for the 8GB of RAM and motherboard combined.
Oh really?? What about the 790x board I got for sale? Even at that nearly 75% of AM2+/3 can push a 965 to 4GHz easily. Oh and take a peak here: This is the Athlon II x4 635($115 cpu) pitted against the Q9650($250 cpu). This is 965 Black vs Q9650
I don't see what the Q9650 destroying the 635 has to do with anything. And yes, as I said the 965BE is pretty close in performance to the Q9650 within 1% like I said despite a 400MHz clock advantage. And I have a hard time believe that 75% of AM3 boards will do the 4.0GHz+ needed to surpass the firstname.lastname@example.com+ considering that the last review done on TPU of the 970BE coudln't get it over 3.9GHz in a Crosshair IV Formula.
In the end, go AMD, sell your current s775 and come out with a quad upgrade for half the cost of the Q9650 with performing just as good. That's all i am saying. Oh and that's the 970BE which in point isn't that great. Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, L... G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 ... I bet the OP could get $150, leaving his upgrade at a leftover cost of ~$125, little over the cost of the chip.
Hand me tpus chip and board and I bet I can get that chip 4.2ghz stable in linx. Its a review they don't have the time to tweak like I would or you would or jr would etc.
Add another $70 to that for 8GB of RAM to match the 775 setup. Yes, that would be a good setup, no it wouldn't perform the same as the Q9650, but it would probably be close enough.

Hooked - (Stacia Naquin)
Updated: 10/11/2013 - I'm SO CLOSE to being able to do a pull-up. So my trainer introduced something new into my training.
Colorado is preparing to expand health assistance for low-income adults, and Democrats have turned away the first attempt to put curbs on that expansion.
The Senate Education Committee decided on a party-line 5-4 vote Thursday to reject a Republican bill to require Colorado to make K-12 education a higher priority than Medicaid expansion.
Republican Sen. David Balmer of Centennial suggested the bill to require than no education funds be cut as Colorado expands Medicaid to cover more needy adults.
Colorado is planning to implement the expansion as part of the federal health care overhaul. Some Republicans say Colorado may not be able to afford the expansion.
Democrats on the Education Committee said that Colorado won't have to choose between health care and education.

Zuckoff, Mitchell. Frozen in Time
Journalist Mitchell Zuckoff knew there was a story that must be told when he set out in 2012 on a recovery mission to the isolated polar cap of Southeast Greenland. There, almost exactly sixty years before, in the winter of 1942, three downed planes were part of a unbelievable story of survival and heroism, a compelling mystery that he was now a part of.
On November 5th, 1942, a lost cargo plane carrying five American servicemen crashed into a glacier due to hazardous weather conditions. Four days after that initial crash, the crew of an American B17 ferrying a long-rang bomber across the Atlantic to England were redirected towards Greenland, attempting to follow an increasingly weak radio signal from the downed cargo plane. They flew into a complete whiteout and crashed, breaking in half on impact, the tail of the plane hanging precariously over a crevasse. Nine airmen found themselves in one of the most inhospitable places on earth with hardly any resources. For five months, the B17 crew battled starvation, madness, frost-bite and failed attempts to walk more than a few yards into hurricane-strength blizzards. Amazingly, some were able to survive by sheer will, camaraderie and ingenuity.
But the glacier was not finished. It claimed a third plane, this one a Coast Guard Grumman "Duck" carrying a pilot and radioman whose mission it was to locate and rescue the B17 crew. They were successful in rescuing some of the survivors but vanished into a storm, not to be recovered until 2012, when a perilous expedition was launched to repatriate the bodies of these lost heroes from under 30 feet of ice. The book flips between this expedition and the events that began to unfold in November 1942, providing maps and the details on the scientific techniques needed to locate missing aircrafts. Together a fascinating and complex narrative is woven; one that will not disappoint fans of military history and true adventure stories. If you enjoyed books like Laura Hillenbrand's Unbroken and Zuckoff's previous book, Lost in Shangri-la, be sure to pick this one up.
