This is a fun way to see Sydney. Enjoyed all stops. Matt was pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable.

Bonza is the greatest! I have taken all kinds of city tours all over the world, and this was one of the best. The people are genuinely fascinating, care about their city and most importantly, care about educating their customers on its sites while keeping them safe and entertained. I would recommend this to anyone!
We really enjoyed this experience and you do not have to be keen cyclists to do it for you are riding and stopping at sights all the time. Ben our guide was great fun and it is a great way to get your bearings around Sydney.
I would recommend this to anyone who is interested in seeing Sydney. We had a fantastic ride with our very knowledgeable guide, Pat. Simply awesome experience, a ride never to be forgotten. Sydney is a beautiful place and this truly is the way to see it!
My bike tour was the best. It was everything that it was advertised to be. Ben, our tour guide was very informative and personal, extremely considerate of everyone's needs. It was a relaxing fun tour, zipping around Sydney. A neat way to get a bit of exercise and see some sights at the same time.
The Bonza Bike Tour was a great way to see a lot of Sydney in a short amount of time. I did the 4-hour Sydney Classic Tour and the route wasn't too challenging, but there were a few hills to climb. There were six people in my group and it included an older gentleman who struggled a little bit with the hills, but he got through it and made the entire tour. We made several pit stops during the tour and even stopped at Lord Nelson's Brewery for an extended stop. My tour guide was Ben and he did a great job sharing the history of Sydney with my group and engaging with everyone in the group. Our tour guide Ben also took several photos of the group during our tour and Bonza Bike emailed all of the photos to everyone in the group. I'd highly recommend this tour.
Steve was our guide. He was fantastic. He lead about 12 of us. We covered a lot of territory. I highly recommend this tour at the beginning of your trip, rather than at the end.
Bike tours are the absolute BEST way to see a city and I will always seek these out when traveling. Our guide was knowledgeable and funny and we had a great tour - even with the rain and storm that came at end of it!
This was an excellent and energetic bike tour - 12 miles of biking, through Sydney, including some hills. The guide was excellent and helpful. We would definitely work with this group for their other bike tours in the future. We were lucky with the weather -- no rain, a bit warm toward the end of the tour, but generally quite nice. This is a tour that is weather dependent. If it is rainy, or really warm I suspect it would be less enjoyable, but for us it worked out fine.
I waited at Circular Key as advised in email but information was WRONG. I found my way to Harrington Street and missed the first hour of bike tour, I hope this has been corrected.

This is a must as an introduction to Sydney if you are a first time visitor. We rated this very highly because Patrick and Adam were fantastic and the tour was very informative. Patrick was very helpful when we popped in to ask questions and Adam was our tour guide and made the four hours fly past.
Great way to see a lot of the city in a short time frame. Lots of insider information and great pub food for lunch (not included). Enough time for pictures. Bike ride is tough here and there because of steep hills. Worth the effort though.
Thank you Sydney Bike Tours we had a brilliant tour of Sydney and would never have seen all the places we visited undre our own steam. Just the two of us on the day so we had exclusive service by the young gentleman who took us. We are both mid to late sixtys and the pace was "at our pace" so not in the least stressful trying to keep up. We enjoyed our trip so much we recommended to a Swiss couple we met on a camping safari to Uluru that they must seek out this cycle tour when they later visited Sydney.

I was in Sydney for a week of business meetings and had only a Thursday afternoon to explore. I set up my tour through Viator and went to the shop a bit early. Unfortunately, due to a mix-up my tour wasn't on their schedule. But no worries, the extremely diligent and resourceful manager juggled his personal schedule and himself took me on a terrific tour of Sydney. I was able to see everything and then some and he was an absolutely brilliant source of history, lore and where to go/what to do. I heartily recommend this company and look forward to my next trip to Sydney and another bike tour with these folks.
Four of us took the Manly Beach Sunset bike tour. It was absolutely amazing. Mike was very knowledgeable about the area and an awesome guide. The ride up the hill was a bit tough, but well worth the effort. Our total tour had six people. We could not have asked for a better excursion.
Despite having been in Sydney for 7 days, having explored and learnt alot, I was able to still learn more. By doing this tour I covered all means of transport for getting around. Thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you Kat for your super guiding
He really enjoyed the trip and had well informed guide
A great day out in Sydney. As I was the only one signed up for the cycling tour that day I had an exclusive tour with my very own tour guide, Latch. I had offered to link up with another tour but Matt was insistent that my trip would go ahead as planned. My guide had so much info and it was a great, relaxed day out. Lovely company with a lovely team.
THE best thing I did in Sydney! Believe me, I did a lot! Forget the Bridge Climb. This is the way you will really see Sydney up close and personal with a wonderful recount of history. I lucked out and had Andrew for our small group tour. Funny, charming, easy going - Andrew made the experience thoroughly enjoyable. The lunch provided with this bike tour was delish.
Me and my friend we both loved it. But when you combine professionality with friendliness, great knowledge of the city, it's history and present developments as they do, it cannot possibly be bad, can it? :) So if anyone wants to see Sydney with guidance then should book the tour! Graet job guys!
I was the only one on the tour, and they still took me on the tour.
Great experience, the moderate climb is more of a strenuous climb if you are not a regular rider even if you are in shape or run regularly.

The Harbor Bridge tour is the mother of all city bike tours---a complete introduction to all things Sydney. At times a bit of a challenge, but all the time sure to be a memorable experience. Our tour guide James was knowledgeable and helpful, the itinerary awesome and the lunch, tasty. Highly recommended!
We had a terrific guide She was very pleasant and very knowledgeable. She took us on a great tour of Sydney!
Our bike tour was fantastic. We saw and learn't so much about Sydney. We got off the main roads and really saw Sydney. Our guide Maddy was sensational, she involved everyone and was a wealth of information. Highly recommend the tour and ask for Maddy.
brilliant - our guide James was a star. There were onyl three of us so was our own private tour really, James was really knowledgeable the team were welcomong and the bikes comfortable. Lunch was a bit of a disappointment. Expected more than a sandwich and a bottle of water. Think a stop at a cafe or character pub might have been better.

Got these using a freebie out of the paper. They work very well. Even in very cold temps the plastic does not crack- often a problem with the cheap ones. Just to test it, I sat one outside for a number of hours in 5 degree weather (very cold in NY here right now) then fully kinked it over on itself and it held up fine. Maybe they've improved materials from the last review.

you are better off using the tie holding your loaf of bread closed in your kitchen. These things are brittle and actually break when you try to fasten them...tried several of them then just tossed the whole bag in trash after cursing my brains out! awful!

Shields and Brooks

- The 108th Congress: Bill Frist
- March 23, 2005: Update: Supreme Court Rejects Schiavo Parents' Appeal
- March 23, 2005: Update: U.S. Court Rejects Appeal in Schiavo Case
- March 22, 2005: The debate surrounding raising the retirement age for Social Security.
- March 22, 2005: The Schiavo case sparks renewed interest in living wills.
JIM LEHRER: Finally tonight, the analysis of Shields and Brooks: Syndicated columnist Mark Shields, New York Times columnist David Brooks.
The Schiavo case, Mark. How do you read the politics of this right now?
MARK SHIELDS: I don't think it's all fallout, Jim. I think that the acts of the Congress have been greeted by voters with an enormous sense of skepticism — that they felt it was done — motives are always scrutinized and always open to consideration but I've never seen such overwhelming negative reaction on the part of the public.
I think if there's a fallout politically they may have strengthened the president's own relationship with the religious and cultural conservative wing of his party who were given great credit and deservedly so, I think, for the turnout in the last election for their support of him but since that election had been given very short shrift in the Bush's second term agenda which has been bankruptcy, Social Security, tort limitation, liability and nothing on same-sex marriage and so forth. This time the president showed that he would stand with them on an issue that at minimal cost to himself, I think, quite frankly.
JIM LEHRER: Is that what this is all about, David?
DAVID BROOKS: Well, actually I think there's a lot of sincere belief here. I mean, one interviews these guys and they believe — they are pro-lifers, they believe in a certain definition of life, that all life has intrinsic worth. The life of comatose people, of Terri Schiavo has the same worth as our life. And I think they believe that sincerely. Is there an element of politics in here? Obviously. But that's democracy. You're allowed to play to certain opinions. I think they saw it's unpopular. I think a lot of people see them grandstanding but they were going to go ahead with it anyway partly for that sincere reason and part because it does — you know, the Republican Party has — 20 years ago was a party in the deep minority. As the social wing of that party, the religious conservatives have become more important, it has become a majority party. If there's any evidence that this wing of the party is hurting the Republicans, it doesn't exist because the party has risen as the social conservatives have risen.
JIM LEHRER: Do you think in this case the president and the Republican leadership misread the politics of it, or do you think they didn't – what do you think — how did it play?
DAVID BROOKS: I find that hard. I don't think it's settled out. I think some of the polls, when you read the questions, they're dubious. The polls lead you in one direction. I think, you know, any time a president shows sincere belief, whether it's majority or not, there's some set of respect for that. Whether there's grandstanding or whether Bill Frist and Tom Delay come out enhanced, I doubt it. But when sincere belief is expressed, I think that's fine. The one thing I'd say about the Democrats is that after they lose elections they're always saying, you know, we have got to talk more about faith and values. This was a week when they really could have talked more about faith and values. You don't have to side with Bill Frist or whatever but you have to talk that way. And when I look at the whole structure of the debate, what I saw was social conservatives making a moral case about the sanctity of life and social liberals making a legislative case about where this should be decided, so it was social conservatives talking morality and social liberals talking process. And I think that was an opportunity the Democrats missed.
JIM LEHRER: First DeLay and Frist and we'll get to the liberals and the Democrats. Have they been hurt by this?
MARK SHIELDS: Just one point, Jim. I'm not questioning sincerity but I am saying this is a truly radical premise which was laid down, that there's an absolute commitment on the part of the United States Government and the United States society to the prolongation negotiation of human life. OK? That's really — that's what underlies this. If that commitment is a serious one, it's not only radical, I mean the commitment and the terms of resources, human, emotional, financial that you're talking about for that policy's implementation, you can forget all about tax cuts. You can forget about cutting Medicaid ever. And you're really talking about —
JIM LEHRER: You're suggesting that what the Congress and the president did was say well, look, this is no longer a decision for individuals and the courts, it's a decision for the executive branch?
MARK SHIELDS: It's no longer a decision for the state of Texas in the Futile Treatment Act George Bush signed as governor which enabled a hospital to terminate — as it did last week, to a five and a half-month-old infant with a fatal disease over his mother's objections to terminate treatment and to take — end his life.
JIM LEHRER: David, do you see it in those big terms?
DAVID BROOKS: I see it halfway. I don't think the president or anybody else said the government is going to take over this. But I do agree with Mark and I go with Mark to the emphasis that this was not about legislative shifting. This was not about judiciary stuff. This was about a fundamental division of values and the social conservatives said all life has intrinsic value. The social liberals said that quality of life is really important and that life exists on a continuum. Some people have the full capacity of life and some people tragically do not and that they can be — one can envision a circumstance where their death has more dignity than their life. And so you had two entirely different ways of looking at the world. Whether they thought — each side has thought through the implications of their basic beliefs, I doubt.
JIM LEHRER: OK. Bill Frist and Tom Delay, how do they come out of this?
MARK SHIELDS: Bill Frist I think was damaged, whether permanently we'll find out. How? But how was he damaged? Bill Frist had the reputation of being — which he is — a physician, a world-class heart surgeon who takes off on his own and goes to the third world on Senate breaks to perform surgery pro bono. And if anything, that was going to be a great credential. It was going to be a doctor running for president rather than a politician. This week he looked like a politician. He gave a diagnosis based upon a videotape. Then his office scurried back to say it wasn't a diagnosis. He looked political. It was not helpful.
Tom Delay, Tom Delay demonstrated once again the infinite capacity of some office holders when they're under siege and under attack to make themselves, elevate themselves to be martyrs. He said to a meeting of the Family Research Council, he didn't know it was being taped, that in fact God had sent the Terri Schiavo tragedy at this time to draw attention to the fact that the conservative movement and he were under attack by enemies.
So, you know — Delay welcomed it as a chance — I mean, does he have a long record in that field, yes? Had he been active in this cause? No. When you get a memo circulating on the floor of the House that says – Republicans — it's important moral issue and our pro-life base will be excited that the Senate is debating this important issue, they condemned it — did the Republican leadership — they never denied it and they never disavowed it.
JIM LEHRER: What do you think, David? Frist and Delay
DAVID BROOKS: Frist and Delay, I don't disagree with anything Mark said about Frist and Delay I think they're — Frist is a sincere man and in many ways a wonderfully admirable man who sometimes doesn't let his true self come out because he's running for president. I basically think that's the situation. And Delay I think much less highly of and what Mark described is just grandiosity which afflicts some politicians.
JIM LEHRER: The memo. Now you want to talk about the memo.
DAVID BROOKS: The memo is true and untrue. Listen, I think the Republican Party is a socially conservative party. They are deeply morally offended by what's happening to Terri Schiavo. And so to discern the politics from the sincerity I think is just impossible to do. Politicians rightly identify the same. They're the same. And so most people one meets on the social conservative side are totally sincere about this and would do it even knowing how unpopular it may turn out to be.
JIM LEHRER: Now the liberal Democrats have been whopped by the liberal columnists, pundits, for remaining silent and on the sidelines during this major debate. Did they deserve to be womped?
MARK SHIELDS: They sure did. James Carville and Stan Greenberg, who are the architects of Bill Clinton's '92 race, run a think called the Democracy Corps, which conducts national surveys. They said of their last survey, "Democrats appear to lack direction, conviction, values, advocacy or a larger public purpose." They certainly did nothing to rebut that presumption this week with the handful of exceptions, I mean, people like Barney Frank and Debbie Wasserman-Shultz of Florida and Jim Moran of Virginia. Most of them just headed for the hills, people who'd die to get — would knock over their grandmother to get in front of a microphone haven't been seen. They went – Peter the Hermit somewhere. So, no, I mean, Democrats, you know, were nowhere to be found and they were missing in action.
JIM LEHRER: Sincere views on their part?
DAVID BROOKS: In part I think that's half an indication that the politics of this are much trickier than they seemed from the first pass, which I think is certainly true. The second thing I'd say there were many Democrats, members of the Black Caucus, Sen. Harkin, many others who more or less sided with the majority. And I think they did so —
JIM LEHRER: With the Republican to pass the bill?
DAVID BROOKS: — on the grounds — Robert George who was on this program before didn't get to talk about philosophy but he's a philosopher. And one of the things he emphasizes is that if we start making distinctions between different sorts of people and who can be moved toward death and who can't it's the helpless and the weak who are going to suffer. And I think what Sen. Harkin and a lot of the other Democrats and Republicans are active on this, I think it's because they have that exact fear.
MARK SHIELDS: I think that's a very good point. But what we're talking about, we mentioned last week, if we're really serious about this, let's have a public policy on it. Let's have a major debate. This was a bill that was for one — it wasn't a real piece of legislation, they knew it wasn't a real piece of legislation, all it did was celebrate this one case, this tragic woman who will probably be dead a week — by the time we get together next Friday and, you know, but is that it? I mean, is it just then going to be sort of a direct mail piece?
DAVID BROOKS: That's how a debate always works. There's one case, everybody can see it on TV, there's like a soap opera element but it sparks a real debate. I actually think there's been quite a good week. We've had the trashiness but we've had a good debate as well on top of that.
JIM LEHRER: And you think it will continue after she goes?
DAVID BROOKS: Listen — there are millions of people who are going to find themselves facing issues like this. It's certain to.
JIM LEHRER: One other just crass political question. The conventional wisdom is that Jeb Bush, the governor of Florida, has been helped by this, if, in fact, he decides he wants to run and take his brother's place in 2008, do you agree?
MARK SHIELDS: I don't think the American people are ready for a dynasty that three out of four presidents would come for from the same family.
JIM LEHRER: That aside?
MARK SHIELDS: I think Bush has always been known in the political community as the authentic Bush conservative. There were always some skepticism or doubts about George W. —
JIM LEHRER: And his father.
MARK SHIELDS: Certainly about his dad and certainly about his mother. But Jeb has been the true believer and he's certainly acted in that way.
JIM LEHRER: What do you think?
DAVID BROOKS: I always believed for the rest of our lives the presidents would be Bush/Clinton, Bush/Clinton, Bush/Clinton forever. As for Jeb Bush, I have been told that he has told people with as firm a view as you can that he's not running for president in '08. And I believe that to be the case partly because people don't want another Bush. So I don't think his presidential prospects are helped. I think he was, again, motivated by sincere belief as much as a politician can be.
JIM LEHRER: Just a few seconds left. Any big change on Social Security since we talked about it last — last week?
MARK SHIELDS: Support not hemorrhaging is eroding. Today Chuck Grassley, the important chairman of the Senate Finance Committee whose bill has to come before committee said he is not confident that they'll be able to pass it.
JIM LEHRER: I saw that. He said he didn't think there would be one this year. What do you think?
DAVID BROOKS: I sort of agree with that, though I think we're moving — we've seen proposals aggressively reduce benefits, reduce Social Security benefits but protecting the poor; we've seen Sen. Bennett, we've seen Democrats, if we do get to a point where we have one vote on personal accounts and one vote on the solvency issue, I think we're coming to a consensus on the solvency issue. So there's some subterranean movement on. Again, I'm not sure we'll ever get to that point, but it's most likely we'll have "no" votes.
JIM LEHRER: Do you think separating the two would be helpful to the debate at least?
MARK SHIELDS: I think there's just a fundamental flaw in the logic which is there's a problem of solvency, there really is — 2041, 2042 — be able to pay 75 percent of the benefits. That's a serious problem. We have to address it. My answer is we've got to have personal accounts. Wait a minute, no, that's not going to have anything to do with it. I think unless and until the president really has to lead on this. He put the issue on the agenda and I think he has to come up with a proposal.
JIM LEHRER: OK. And we are out of time. Thank you both very much.

Public space like the plaza in Al Fawwar is mostly unheard-of in Palestinian camps across the West Bank.

Weizman has also made a name for himself as the chief proponent of "forensic architecture", by which he analyses the impacts of urban warfare for clues about the crimes that were perpetrated there.

"The weapons and ammunitions are very simple elements: they are trees, they are terraces, they are houses. They are barriers." — theguardian.com
The Palestinian Authority government has estimated that it could cost $6 billion to rebuild the territory: 50,000 homes have been totally or partially destroyed, roughly 250 factories have reportedly been rendered inoperable, and Gaza's sewage treatment facility and power plant have been damaged, shrinking the available supply of drinkable water and creating a potential health crisis for residents. — Foreign Policy

User Reviews
Used for downhill. Size was a bit off - 2x isn't a true 2x, go the next size up.
I used them to go snowshoeing. I liked the side vents.
I love these pants! They fit true to size, and the velcro adjusters around the waist allows for an ideal fit. I like how the pants have lots of pockets and keep out the snow and cold. I paired these pants with Under Armour Cold Gear and I was free from Jack Frost's wrath. These pants are equipped with side vents along the hip to let a breeze in if needed. The pants are comfortable and the most affordable I've found on-line.
I had tried 3 other brands, 2 of which were considerably more expensive, this was by far the best quality and fit. Both for my trim teen and my more curvaceous self. We just wanted comfy snow pants.
I will use this for snow shoveling and winter walks, as well as for snowshoeing when I move to Montana next year. The material seems soft and easy to move in. I wish the bottom cuffs had a drawstring to make them fit closer to the ankle.

Feb 19, 2013 Bob Buskirk Networking, Reviews, Storage 8
Wireless storage is becoming increasingly popular, I cannot tell you how many wireless hard drives we saw at CES this year. Wireless storage is great as you do not need to be physically connected to the drive to access it and think about how many wireless devices you have in your house. How many of those devices do you take with you on a daily basis? For me I take my laptop, iPhone and Kindle with me everywhere. With limited storage space on these devices I want to be able to take my media with me and access it from all of these devices…at the same time. We have already taken a look at devices like Kingston's Wi-Drive and Patriot's Gauntlet Node that give you this ability. Each device has its limitations though. Today we are taking a look at a device from ADATA that everyone should add to their mobile arsenal. The DashDrive Air is a wireless storage reader and power bank that gives you that mobile storage as well as the ability to charge your devices and so much more! Read on as we take a look!

There was a time when a wireless router did little more than, well, route. It took bits from the airwaves and put them on a wire, destined for the Internet or perhaps the local network. As the technology matured, product designers started adding things. At first, it was software like firewalls, quality of service controls, and port tunneling and forwarding controls. Then came the advanced things such as VPN and jffs-based file storage – sufficient for a small, static HTML site stored on a cordoned-off part of the router's unused flash ROM. Then came the hardware changes, most relevant to this review being the advent of USB ports. This opened a whole new world of possibilities, generally USB Mass Storage devices and printers. Then Western Digital joined the fray. It added a hard drive to the router. Thus, we have the My Net N900 Central, a 450Mbps x2 high-end wireless router ready act not only as a shuffler of bits, but also as a storer of bits; a router and simple NAS all in one compact device.
Dec 21, 2012 Colin Dean Networking, Reviews 6
Not all wireless routers are equal. Every wireless router can shuffle bits back and forth between the Internet, the local wired network, and the local wireless network. Some routers are faster than others, and that's to be expected. However, there is another class of wireless router that offers more than the standard feature set. The ASUS RT-N66U Dual-band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router is one such hot rod. Featuring among other things dual USB2 ports and 450 Mbps wireless transfers and the ability to create eight wireless networks, the RT-N66U is a great device for folks who want their always-on device to do more than just shuffle bits. Read on for the review.

It always seems that no matter what improvements are made to wireless access point technology, there is always that one spot in your living or office space that has lackluster Wi-Fi reception. No matter what you do, you're just outside the bubble, and the signal drops constantly or the throughput is so slow that you might as well be back on a 56 kbps modem. Wi-Fi extenders such as this Edimax EW-7438RPn N300 Universal Wi-Fi Extender aim to fix that by cheaply augmenting the wireless network, expanding coverage and providing better reception in areas that sorely need it. Read on for the review.

Last year we reviewed a couple TP-LINK products and were extremely impressed with them. TP-LINK's latest portable router is the TL-WR700N 150Mbps Wireless N Mini Pocket Router. Its max wireless speed is rated a bit lower than standard routers, but its feature-set doesn't suffer. The TL-WR700N supports multiple modes including AP, Repeater, Client, Bridge, and can function as a basic router. Has TP-LINK tried to pack too much into a small device? Or will they blow us away again? Check out the full review to find out.

When Bigfoot Networks' VP of Marketing John Drewry unveiled its partnership with several motherboard manufacturers at CES 2011, he hinted at the possibility of a wireless version of the Killer NIC. In March, BFN announced the Killer Wireless-N series. We've finally gotten our hands on a pair of otherwise identical laptops — one with the Killer Wireless-N 1102 adapter and one with an Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 AGN adapter. We send a big thank you to BFN for arranging this comparison review.

Do you have a TV, game console, Blu-Ray player, or any other device that can connect to a network but it doesn't have built-in wireless or it is out of your wireless network's range? Then I have some really good news. TP-LINK has a 200Mbps Powerline Ethernet Adapter (TL-PA211) that'll give you connectivity anywhere there's a power outlet. The TL-PA211 is reliable enough to keep your pings low in online gaming, and even fast enough to stream HD video from one end of your house to the other. It's also pretty affordable. Check out the full review for all of the specs and a detailed account of my experience with the TL-PA211.

TP-LINK's TL-WR1043ND may not be featured on the front page of retailers' newspaper ads, and all of your friends may have no clue who they are, however, you absolutely should not overlook one of their products, the TL-WR1043ND. Fancy model numbers aside, we're talking about a Wireless N 300Mbps Gigabit Router with a clean design and nice firmware to give you the quality networking you need. It also has a USB port for NAS, and if you don't like the stock firmware, DD-WRT is fully supported. Usually a router of this caliber would cost quite a bit. Although you can get the TL-WR1043ND for less than the price of a new video game, and still have some change left over for ice cream. Check out the full review to see all of the reasons why TP-LINK's TL-WR1043ND should be your next router.

Good things come in small packages. That's right, this little USB wireless N adapter, also known as the ASUS USB-N13, is a good thing in a small package. It has style, performance, and stability of adapters that cost more than twice its price, and it even has extra features like Software AP. If you need a wireless N adapter, or just want to get something cool for a great price, the USB-N13 is what you're looking for. Check out the full review for detailed specs, performance charts and more!

We don't have a very good understanding of Judge Sotomayor's reasoning in the Ricci v. DeStefano racial preferences case because she and her two colleagues issued a one-paragraph "per curiam opinion [that] adopted in toto the reasoning of the District Court, without further elaboration or substantive comment, and thereby converted a lengthy, unpublished district court opinion, grappling with significant constitutional and statutory claims of first impression, into the law of this Circuit," as the Second Circuit's Judge Cabranes, a Clinton appointee, wrote in his dissent from the court's 7-6 denial of en banc rehearing in the case.
Thankfully, the Wall Street Journal has posted an audio recording of an hour-long hearing from the Ricci case that sheds a little more light on Sotomayor's grappling (or lack thereof) with the serious claims brought up in this case. The Journal reports that Sotomayor and "the presiding judge, Rosemary Pooler, fire questions at the firefighters' lawyer, Karen Lee Torre." I think the following excerpt, in particular, is worth reading (though it's much more powerful listening Torre make her argument).
Judge Pooler asks (I assume Pooler is speaking because she is the only other judge identified by the Journal at the hearing) why the case of Hayden v. County of Nassau "isn't dispositive" in the Ricci case. Torre replies that in Hayden, "Nobody had lost anything. Nobody had taken the test yet. ... No one was hurt".
Judge Pooler interrupts and says that the district court judge said "no one was hurt here [in New Haven] either." Torre, flabbergasted, replies:
No one was hurt? For heaven's sakes, judge, if they didn't refuse to fill the vacancies, these men would be lieutenants and captains. How can you say they weren't hurt? They're out $1,000 a piece. Half of their marriages were strained by this. They spent 3 months of their lives holed up in a room like I was and you were when we took the bar exam.
So much for empathetic appeals.
Torre then argues that New Haven's decision to throw out an exam that tested vital knowledge for firefighters endangers lives, especially in a "post-9/11 era, no less":
I think a fundamental failure is the application of these concepts to this job as if these men were garbage collectors. This is a command position of a First Responder agency. The books you see piled on my desk are fire science books. These men face life threatening circumstances every time they go out. ... Please look at the examinations. ... You need to know: this is not an aptitude test. This is a high-level command position in a post-9/11 era no less. They are tested for their knowledge of fire, behavior, combustion principles, building collapse, truss roofs, building construction, confined space rescue, dirty bomb response, anthrax, metallurgy, and I opened my district court brief with a plea to the court to not treat these men in this profession as if it were unskilled labor. We don't do this to lawyers or doctors or nurses or captains or even real estate brokers. But somehow they treat firefighters as if it doesn't require any knowledge to do the job.
Oops. It looks like Torre just made an argument that was probably a little too classist for Judge Sotomayor's tastes. Nevertheless Torre continues to drive home the point that a mastery of the knowledge required to pass the test in New Haven could have saved lives:
Firefighters die every week in this country. ... [There was a case ] a few miles away where a young father and firefighter Eddie Ramos died after a truss roof collapsed in a warehouse fire because the person who commanded the scene decided to send men into an unoccupied house, with no people to save on Thanksgiving Day, with a truss roof known to collapse early in the fire because of the nature of the pins that hold the trusses together would have collapsed. And for 20 minutes he couldn't find any air and he he suffocated to death. And the fire chief had to go tell a 6 year-old that her father wasn't coming home. I'm not being histrionic. That happens all the time, and if you can't pass a competency exam and answer substantive job knowledge questions, I think that the only compelling governmental interest or Title 7 interest I see--
Then Judge Sotomayor interrupts:
JUDGE SOTOMAYOR: Counsel ... we're not suggesting that unqualified people be hired. The city's not suggesting that. All right? But there is a difference between where you score on the test and how many openings you have. And to the extent that there's an adverse impact on one group over the other, so that the first seven who are going to be hired only because of the vagrancies [sic] of the vacancies at that moment, not because you're unqualified--the pass rate is the pass rate--all right? But if your test is always going to put a certain group at the bottom of the pass rate so they're never ever going to be promoted, and there is a fair test that could be devised that measures knowledge in a more substantive way, then why shouldn't the city have an opportunity to try and look and see if it can develop that?
KAREN LEE TORRE: Because they already developed it, your honor.
JUDGE SOTOMAYOR: It assumes the answer. It assumes the answer which is that, um, the test is valid because we say it's valid.
KAREN LEE TORRE: The testing consultant said it was valid. He told them it was valid.... They had evidence that the test was job-related and valid for use under Title VII.
Sotomayor may have not wanted unqualified firefighters to be elevated to the position of captain and lieutenant--she simply wanted less qualified firefighters to be placed in charge of the lives of other men in the interests of racial diversity. I wonder what Eddie Ramos would say about that if he were alive today.
During her confirmation hearing, hopefully we will get to find out what evidence Sotomayor had to back up her claim that this test "is always going to put a certain group at the bottom". Did she actually examine the test to see if it was unfair to a particular group? And, how, precisely, does she think it's possible to create a test that "measures knowledge in a more substantive way"?

The film that dared to bring us two Ron Silvers is coming back. Universal has announced that they plan to actually write the word "Timecop" down on paper, follow it with more pages featuring description and dialogue, hire a director to wear a baseball cap that reads "Timecop" on the front, convince an actor to play a "Timecop," and then spend money on actually getting this thing made, and mass-produce billboards and other marketing materials that say "Timecop."
Sadly, they will not cast Jean Claude Van Damme to reprise his role as the cop who cops time for this one. Good luck finding an actor who can make his foot hover in front of people's faces. They don't teach that skill. You're born with it. (What's Playing)

Production on Tim Burton's stop-motion Frankenweenie 3D is ramping up and he's bringing some of his besties onboard. Winona Ryder, Martin Landau, Catherine O'Hara, and Martin Short have joined as four voice actors who don't command a Johnny Depp-sized salary.
It is surprising that Burton's usual players, Depp and wifey Helena Bonham Carter are not attached to the project. Perhaps they'll show up in smaller Easter Egg-ish roles. I'm sure Burton can get either to bark like a dog for the right amount of money. Or the right amount of absinthe. (Deadline)
Director Gavin Hood is reportedly developing Ender's Game, the award winning novel by Orson Scott Card, into a feature film. Hood (Tsotsi) plans to direct the film using a modified script written by Card.
The story follows a group of children in the future who, because of their high intelligence, are chosen to attend a special school. Here they are taught the methods of space warfare using high-tech "simulators." Notice how I put quotes around the word "simulators." Why do you think I did that?
Although highly accalimed, Ender's Game has not had much luck in Hollywood due in part to the special effects required and the fact that a film adaptation would rely heavily on child actors. While I understand those concerns, I have full faith that the man who brought us X-Men Origins: Wolverine will have the skill and subtlety needed to pull off such a complex story.

When I began preparing for the coming Robopocalypse, my now ex-girlfriend said I was crazy. But word has it that iconic director and propagandist for the New World Order, Steven Spielberg, may be prepping for the Robopocalypse as well. Who's the "deranged moron with a small penis" now, eh Cindy?
Spielberg, who initially passed on the film in favor of his current film, War Horse, is reportedly considering Robopocalypse as his next project. The story by Daniel H. Wilson chronicles man's fight for survival as robots turn on their former masters and humanity's chickens come home to roost. If I were you, I'd unplug my Roomba right now and throw it off a bridge.

Next on TGIF, those wacky assassins in 'Odd Jobs!'
Last spring, when the cast of "Lost" was making the press rounds trying to talk-up the finale as anything but an enormous "FUUUU!!!!" to the fans, Terry O'Quinn and Michael Emerson revealed their wish to star alongside one another as retired assassins on a new show. Now that idea has some traction in the form of J.J. Abrams.
Abrams is shopping around O'Quinn's comedic drama concept to the networks, and with his name attached, it's likely to be held in high regard. Which means if the show does come together, we may see it on a real network instead of it being sandwiched in between "SVU" marathons on USA. Sounds like a fun show, though it clearly deserves to be a sitcom. I can see the opening credits now. John Locke and Ben on a bicycle made for two; Ben accidentally squirts mustard on Locke when the pair order hot dogs; then later, their bullets ricochet off one another's as they both try to assassinate an Arab royal. Good times. (Vulture)
Director: Davis Guggenheim
Synopsis: Filmmaker Davis Guggenheim follows a handful of promising kids through a system that inhibits, rather than encourages, academic growth, Guggenheim undertakes an exhaustive review of public education, surveying "drop-out factories" and "academic sinkholes," methodically dissecting the system and its seemingly intractable problems.
I was the only person who liked "Running Wilde" when they sent the original pilot out over the summer. I thought it was very Mitch Hurwitz-y, it made me laugh and I could see where it was going for a series. Of course, I like things no one else likes so they're not going to cater a show to me. I like the reshot version of the show a little less, but maybe this is what the general public will like.
Will Arnett plays Steven Wilde, a rich trust fund baby who's somewhat Gob-y, although he was more Gob-y in the original version so maybe one of the notes was "less Gob-y." He's somewhat self-centered and oblivious to the world around him. That's not to say that Arnett is rehashing his character, it's just funny to base a show around that type of main character and then take him somewhere he couldn't go as part of an ensemble.

Super 8 picked up its stars just the other day, filming is slated to begin on the J.J. Abrams' flick this week, and now the first spy photos of the set have appeared online. The story is set in 1979 in the sleepy little town of Lillian Heights, Ohio. Which means the filmmakers needed to find a town sh*tty enough to look like it stepped out of the 1970's. Weirton, West Virginia is that lucky little town that looks sh*tty enough to be a part of filmmaking history. Congrats, Weirton! Be sure to stock up on Busch. The teamsters demand it. (AICN)

"Raising Hope" is the kind of edgy comedy I want to see on TV. I don't want to spoil anything because you should experience it fresh like I did, but I could not believe what I was watching. They're putting this on TV?! And they should. It's the same half hour whether they go crazy or play it safe, so just go crazy.
The setup it takes to make Jimmy (Lucas Neff) a single dad is outrageous. By about 10 minutes in, I couldn't believe how far they took it. I don't know if they're going to be able to do this every week, but I hope so. Aside from the shocking dark comedy, the humor is just joyfully immature. They say "wiener" and that makes me smile. The characters' behaviors are so outrageous and politically incorrect, only Fox would put this show on.
Katie Cleary is a blink and miss her hot girl in movies like The Break Up and Iron Man 2. Katie founded her start in the entertainment industry as "Briefcase Model 11" on "Deal or No Deal." Since then she has risen through the ranks of other models to land a spot on this season's "Chuck," which will make the geeks that keep the show alive very happy on Monday nights.

Look what you're doing to Paul!!!
Jeremy Renner just gave us all one ticket to Bummersville. The actor recently revealed to Total Film that Paul Thomas Anderson's in the works scientology drama tentatively titled The Master has come to a grinding halt:
"I was really bummer about that," Renner revealed. "It really kind of stalled because when we were rehearsing – Phil, Paul and myself – we kept coming up against a wall that we couldn't overcome. Or at least Paul couldn't.
I'm sure he didn't mean for that to sound like a burn, but what a buuuuuuuurn. Jeremy could overcome it, Paul? Why the hell couldn't you?
At the press junket for Jack Goes Boating, Philip Seymour Hoffman also confirmed that the project is currently whack:
"I don't have any new information ['The Master']. I really mean that, I'm not being obstuse. I don't quite know what that is at the moment, but hopefully I will and hopefully I'll be part of something soon. It would be great to work with him again."
I was really looking forward to Anderson's take on The Cause — his made up word for Scientology — and Hoffman portraying a version of L. Ron Hubbard, the author of the classic novel Battlefield Earth. Everyone keep your fingers crossed so tightly that they bleed. It's the only way this project may get back on track. (ThePlaylist)
"Community" creator Dan Harmon's Christmas wish just came true. No, not a third season, stupid. He gets to live his dream of creating an entirely animated episode of his sitcom. This season's Christmas episode of "Community" will be created in the pain-staking stop motion style of the Rankin/Bass animated specials we all grew up on. Harmon recounts how this opportunity presented itself.
"It's something that I've always wanted to do but, I never anticipated having the ability to do it," he admits. But "Jeff Gaspin at NBC woke up one morning and thought "Community" should do an animated episode. I was like, 'Well, that's weird, because that's the kind of stuff I'm usually suggesting and guys like him veto.'"
Sounds awesome. Early buzz already has this (and the Halloween episode) topping last season's Paintball Episode. Sure, it will strain a few animators' eyes and backs, but I feel like it's worth it. Dibs on the Gillian Jacobs doll! (EW)
I know from previous writing experience that "Bones" fans hate spoilers, yet they love to read about "Bones." I respect that. I don't want to ruin anything for you, but I know you want to know about the season premiere, so I'll be as vague as possible and just try to tell you what's good so you can look forward to it.
Seeing some different settings in the opening of the show is cool. Fans probably know where the characters have gone off to, but just in case I'll leave that up to the imagination. Wherever they are, it adds a little epic feel, even if it was shot locally. It adds some action and a chance for characters to bring their unique qualities to a different world. The ladies get a chance to be sexy too.

MTV caught up with Keanu Reeves at the Toronto Film Festival and asked him the pressing question that everyone's dying to know the answer to: What up with another Bill & Ted? The interview takes place at a bench, where I'm guessing moments before Keanu was finishing up a meal all by his lonesome.
The recently "sad" actor says he'd love to do another Bill & Ted (duuuuuuuh), they just have to get the story right. For a story that never made sense in the first place, this is lofty goal. Keanu also says he'd love German director Werner Herzog to add his flair to the project. Now that I would pay to see. They'll need to get this project off the ground soon though or it's going to follow Bill and Ted's excellent adventure of applying for a AARP membership. And Werner tackling ageism will be a dark tale indeed.

What are you smilin' at, Riptide?
Some villains menace society with an army of henchmen. Other terrorize the world with high powered lasers and killer robots. Then there's Riptide. He spins around really fast and shoots out "calcium-growth from his bones." Scary.
At any rate, Álex González has landed the role in X-Men: First Class, joining an already impressive cast inducing Michael Fassbender, Jason Flemying and Kevin Bacon. Will this deranged milk man-type character prove to be as popular as Wolverine and his huge metal claws or Cyclops and his laser eye? Only time will tell. (Blog De Superheroes via Cinema Blend)
After building a career out of using it as a punchline, Sarah Silverman is now planning to show her vagina. She'll film her first full-frontal nude scene in Sarah Polley's Take This Waltz, the film we dubbed too "meh" to write about previously. But in light of recent news, kind of a lot of things have changed don't ya think?
In the film, Silverman plays a new mom so impressed with her post-baby body that she declares, "I look in the mirror, and I wanna f**k myself." The real Silverman however, doesn't share that sensibility. Of the role, she says:
"I go totally naked. Full frontal. It's going to be awful. It's so not pretty."
She then added, "Poop! Poop! Doody!!! Vagina! Black people!!!" (Moviefone)
Anthony Peckham, the writer behind Sherlock Holmes and Invictus, is Paramount's choice to pen the latest Jack Ryan film, Empire Online is reporting. The film, starring Chris Pine and directed by Jack Bender, will mark the 5th time the iconic Tom Clancy character has appeared on the silver screen.
In the film, Ryan and his trusty sidekick Watson will attempt to stop an attack on Nelson Mandela as he watches a rugby game atop the Tower of London. That's my guess, anyway. What do I look like, a god damn 19th century detective?
I know "Lone Star" is Fox's big push for the fall and a lot of critics like it already, but I wasn't into it. It may just be personal taste, but I just don't care about con artists and oil companies in Texas. Maybe that's your thing, but here's what I didn't like about it.
First of all, there are so many turns in the first episode that you can't really get a handle on what you're watching. Maybe three surprises an episode is exciting, but it doesn't give you any time to get involved before it pulls the rug out from under you. Not that the twists are unpredictable.

When screenwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman wrote the new Star Trek movie for J.J. Abrams, Trek fans were like, "How can you build the Enterprise on earth? That makes no sense. And Capt. Kirk in a bar fight? Come on." Then it came out and fans pretty much unanimously agreed, "Thank you for bringing back Star Trek. You did it right. Now what's the next one about?"
Now the duo is rebooting "Hawaii Five-O," a TV series everyone's probably heard of, that ran for much longer than Star Trek, but people probably don't remember as well. We know the theme song and "Book him, Danno" but there's not the attachment. The new version plays pretty much like a straight modern action show, but there are enough references and Easter eggs to make it feel special. If you know the original you'll feel like they got it. If you don't know the original, you'll feel like they're letting you in on a secret.

Someone dun goofed.
Here's a fun rumor that I hope turns out to be true. Vulture is reporting that Coach Taylor a.k.a. Kyle Chandler from "Friday Night Lights" and Elle Fanning a.k.a. Dakota's little sister have been cast in Super 8, the J.J. Abrams/Steven Spielberg collaboration that's dipped and sprinkled in secrecy. Clearly stated, Kyle Chandler is the Man. I guess Elle can come along too, as long as she doesn't get her sticky kid fingers all over everything.
Last May we saw a teaser that teased water sports, and we've been told it's supposedly about three siblings who discover footage of an alien on a Super 8 camera. The movie comes out next summer, so hopefully we'll be let in on more before then, at least casting wise. It would be a shame if they released the movie without a set cast. Actors always really bring a certain something to the screen.
Maybe I'm being unfair, but it really felt like "The Event" was just blatantly trying to be "Lost 2.0." I know some shows take a few episodes to get going, but that wasn't it. The very device of the show is contrived to build mystery artificially, meaning if they just told the story in order, it would be a silly sci-fi show, but they expect it to be more mysterious in flashbacks.

Mark Wahlberg's Reykjavik-Rotterdam remake now has a lovely lady amongst its ranks. Kate Beckinsale has joined the cast of Contraband. The film centers on a former smuggler turned security guard who is pulled back in when he can't resist the opportunity to traffic stolen goods. 2009 Black List scribe Aaron Guzikowski is on script duties, with the star of the original, Baltasar Kormakur, handling the direction.
There's no word on what role Beckinsale will play in the film, but I'm more interested in what she's smuggling, if you know what I'm saying.

They don't call him Academy Award winner Sir Anthony Hopkins for nothing. We know Sir Anthony transforms himself into any character on screen or stage, but he can do anybody in real life too. At the press junket for Woody Allen's latest movie, You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger, the actor launched into a dead on Woody Allen impression. Hopkins starts describing the direction Allen gives after a take. About 12 seconds in, he miraculously goes from Sir Anthony to Woody Allen.

From Academy Award-Winning Director Ron Howard comes… a movie where Vince Vaughn gets poison ivy on his schlong. And Channing Tatum probably gets worse when he puts his in Winona Ryder.

Let this trailer for Minka Kelly and Leighton Meester's The Roommate provide new college students with the potential warning signs to watch out for if you suspect your new roommate is a crazed stalker.
[ ] Do they watch you sleep?
[ ] Do they kill people and possibly a kitten?
[ ] Are you their only friend on their Frienderz page?
[ ] Are they off their medicine?
[ ] Do they disapprove of Cam Gigandet?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions (except for Cam Gigandet), your roommate is definitely not stable. You should move. And definitely don't agree to go see David Fincher's inevitable film about the creation of Frienderz together.

The Saint James Parish region
Barbados offers such an abundance of natural beauty, culture and history that the island is called "The Gem of the Caribbean." Located about 300 miles north of Venezuela and the most Eastern of the Caribbean islands, Barbados portrays a delightful blend of West Indian culture and English Tradition. Independent since 1966, Barbados is the most developed of the Caribbean islands and Bridgetown, the 375-year-old historic capital is its colourful and bustling center of activity. Shopping, excellent dining and a funky nightlife are just a few of the many options available. There is an extensive bus system that is cheap and fast, providing an entertaining way to discover the island.
There are magnificent caves to explore, gorgeous landscapes and tropical gardens to visit, and an abundance of wildlife to see, including the mischievous little "green monkeys" that call Barbados their home. On the South and West coasts, the Caribbean Sea with calm blue waters and endless stretches of fine white sandy beaches invites you to relax, while the Atlantic east coast with cliffs and great waves is ideal for wind and sky surfing.
There is lots to do and the choice is not easy, but whether you enjoy some of the 3,000 hours of annual sunshine or chat with a friendly "Bajan" in one of the numerous little rum shops on the roadsides, make sure to relax in the comfort of your private Rental Butler villa at the end of the day. Take in the breathtaking sunsets, have a delicious local dinner prepared for you or just lean back and dream into the starry skies.

Every week this month-May 1-31, 2014--Therm O Web, makers of HeatnBond®,
is giving away hundreds of dollars in prizes including a $200 shopping
spree at Therm O Web's online store!
Many fiber artists use a sketchbook to collect ideas, record textures, try out layouts, and even sketch. But how do you transfer drawings you love to your fabric designs? One way is to make a stamp for printing on fabric.
I love dyeing fabric with Procion-MX Fiber Reactive dyes, they allow me to create fabric that is just the color and visual texture that I need for each of my textile art projects
You know how one piece of sparkly jewelry or a metallic accessory can enliven an outfit? Using foil in your surface design can do the same thing for textile art.
When I make small fiber art projects such as prayer flags, I usually start with a vintage textile like a linen napkin or a salvaged piece of a worn-out quilt as my base.
Who says ornaments are just for Christmas? Many people decorate branches with egg ornaments to celebrate all things springy--and with my fondness for fabric art featuring nests and birds you know I can't resist eggs either.
A few weeks ago on Facebook I noticed a conversation among fiber artists on the best way to organize their fabric stash.
Looking to stir up a little fun in the kitchen? Try dyeing with resists from the kitchen! You can create many of the same effects as wax batik techniques using resists off your pantry shelf.
In our eBook Free Hand Sewing Techniques for Quilters: Learn Hand Embroidery, Stitches, and Trapunto, you'll get four hand stitching tutorials with a variety of hand embroidery techniques.
Many readers have commented on how much they like Deborah Hyde's artwork on the cover of the April/May 2014 issue of Quilting Arts Magazine. In addition to the sheer beauty of the work, they are amazed at, and curious about, how Deborah manages to sew those 1" squares together.
Why did I ever take up quilting? Necessity! I was 16 years old and redecorating my impossibly small bedroom.
I have quite a stash of hand-dyed silk ribbon, beads, buttons, and trims that I could use to embellish a quilt. The trouble is, aside from my small fabric collages, I haven't been making embellished quilts recently.
During the time when I was regularly creating prayer flags, I made a series with tiny paper tags attached. On the tag I glued words cut from old books--little phrases that fit the intention of the flag.
I love a good map. I think this fascination started as a child when my family took road trips all over New England. We would pile into the family sedan, my father always driving, and my mother always knitting in the front seat.
Sometimes, machine quilting plays a supporting role to color, fabric, and surface design on a quilt. Other times, free-motion quilting is the star.

The American Cancer Society estimates that nearly 22,000 malignant tumors of the brain or spinal cord will be diagnosed this year in the United States. Approximately 13,070 people -- 7,420 men and 5,650 women -- will die from these tumors. The cancers account for about 1.3 percent of all cancers and 2.2 percent of all cancer-related deaths in the United States.
Kennedy was the youngest of nine children, and became a U.S. senator in 1962. His older brother, President John F. Kennedy, was assassinated in 1963. Another brother, Robert Kennedy, who was also a U.S. senator, was assassinated in 1968 during his presidential campaign.
His sister, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, who founded the Special Olympics, died earlier this month.

A bipolar adventure split between a crazy storyline on the hunt for Vaas, and a huge open world ready to test our destructive creativity.
Content-rich and varied in its approach, Ubisoft's FPS does everything to avoid boredom, be it a gentle introduction of stealth-lite elements with enjoyable CQC kills, or the more leisurly discovery of a myriad side quests. Bathed in sunlight and entertained by the big guns, it is great fun to blow up and torch everything in the middle of a superb looking world - albeit monotone in its settings and ennemies.
Yes, multiplayer is particularly lame, but that's not really where the game was expected to perform. Far Cry 3 is not to be missed this holiday season. 8/10

GNU Guix 0.5 released
Item posted by Ludovic Courtès <civodul> on Wed 11 Dec 2013 01:45:57 PM UTC.
We are pleased to announce the fifth alpha release of GNU Guix.
The highlights are:
- Port to the Loongson MIPS64 processors, using the n32 ABI.
- New monad interface to handle operations on the store.
- New whole-system configuration API, allowing users to declare and instantiate a machine's settings.
- 110 new packages, including "big ones" such as GNU IceCat and hacker's favorites such as Guile-WM. ;-)
An updated QEMU virtual machine is provided, featuring Guix 0.5 and dmd 0.1.
See the original announcement for details.
