Terry A. Tegnazian, president and co-founder of Aquila Polonica Publishing, based in Los Angeles with an office in England, is not Polish, not of Polish descent, not married into Polishness, and is a lawyer by training, not a publisher. Yet she finds herself scouring archives and histories for unknown accounts about Poland during World War II because Aquila Polonica's sole purpose is to bring out books about the Polish experience during that war. (Aquila polonica is Latin for "Polish eagle," and the company is so named for the eagle that adorns the Polish flag.) The house brought out its first small list three years ago, and Tegnazian is still enthusiastically dedicated to her mission.
The newest release is Capt. Witold Pilecki's The Auschwitz Volunteer: Beyond Bravery (just out in April), which recounts the Polish officer's undercover operation to get himself arrested by the Nazis and imprisoned at Auschwitz in order to smuggle out intelligence to the Allies about the then-three-month-old camp and to build a resistance organization among the prisoners.
Witold Pilecki (pronounced VEE-told pee-LETS-kee) survived nearly three years of starvation, disease, and brutality, but he accomplished his mission before escaping from Auschwitz in April 1943. "His clandestine intelligence reports from the camp, received by the Allies beginning in early 1941, were among the first eyewitness evidence of what was going on at Auschwitz," a press release notes. Pilecki was eventually executed in 1945 by the Communists as a Western spy.
Pilecki's heroic story was uncovered during the course of dissertation research by Jozef Garlinski, the father of Jarek Garlinski, the publisher's usual translator, and Tegnazian jumped on the book as an example of exactly what drew her to her cause and sustains her in it. Jozef Garlinski's dissertation was published in 1975 as a book called Fighting Auschwitz; Aquila Polonica will soon be bringing out an updated edition.
How did Tegnazian get to be so specialized? "That's the number one question I always get asked," she says. "People don't know about this page of history. Part of why we don't know more is that the Communists suppressed it. We are filling in blank pieces of the canvas. It's pretty exciting, sometimes overwhelming. I meet tons of people, and I feel as if I'm doing something that matters, bringing a lost history out to the world."
The house is working with the Polish embassy in Washington on an event for the book to take place in the fall. The Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles and the YIVO Institute in New York have also expressed interest in sponsoring events in the fall. The book is a Featured Selection of the History Book Club and a selection of the Book-of-the-Month Club and the Military Book Club.
Aquila Polonica titles are distributed in the U.S. and internationally by National Book Network. Look for the publisher at the NBN booth (3757, 3758).

Re: DVD GIVEAWAY: Industry Insider Techniques with Louise Cutting Volumes 1-4
I've been on a sewing spree this summer with simple and easy garments. I've gained some confidence and now I'm ready to tackle the next two complicated projects: a winter coat and a glamorous evening dress. I need this series to help me get the knowledge and guidance to dive into sewing these two challenging pieces for my wardrobe. ;-)
Re: What's your New Year's Resolution?
Making it public is what I think will make a difference this year. I also made it public and include it in my signature in another popular sewing forum in which I am a member. My resolutions are 4: 1- sew more (30 min a day, probably in mornings before work); 2- be more organize (clean up cutting table after each project and put everything back in its place each time); 3- learn pattern-making and machine embroidery; and 4- buy less fabric (aka make a significant dent to stash). Let's do it!!!

US President Barack Obama has renewed his call for the development of new technologies to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and move American cars and trucks off petrol and diesel.
"The only way we're going to break this cycle of spiking gas (petrol) prices for good is to shift our cars and trucks off of oil for good," Obama said on Saturday in his weekly radio and internet address.
"That's why, in my State of the Union Address, I called on Congress to set up an Energy Security Trust to fund research into new technologies that will help us reach that goal."
On Friday, Obama visited the Argonne National Laboratory outside of Chicago, a research facility that is focusing on electric car engines and other ways of reducing US dependence on oil.
The president is proposing to take some of the oil and gas revenues from public lands and put it toward research on energy efficient engines, developing cheaper batteries and advancing biofuels and natural gas.
"Now, this idea isn't mine," Obama said. "It's actually built off a proposal put forward by a non-partisan coalition of CEOs and retired generals and admirals. So let's take their advice and free our families and our businesses from painful spikes in gas prices once and for all."
Obama last month called on Congress to do more to combat climate change and he plans to introduce further efficiency standards for cars and renew a push on the development of wind, solar and cleaner natural gas energy.
His proposed reforms face a tough ride in Congress, however, as Republicans have criticised government spending on green energy programs during Obama's first term, arguing that the outcomes did not justify the cost.

A Moving Feast: Buy a food truck for refugees in Lebanon
In a refugee camp in Beirut, a remarkable woman has created a catering business that's offering dignified employment and new hope to a group of Palestinian refugee women. Please help us atAlfanar – the Arab region's first venture philanthropy organisation – to buy these amazing women a food truck, so they can sell their mouth-watering food to even more people, and grow their business even further.
Living as a refugee in Lebanon
For many of us, the life of a refugee appears impossible. After leaving behind everything that's familiar to them, they are torn away from the sights, sounds and tastes of home, taking only what they can carry.
This is the reality for 1.5 million Syrians, Palestinians, Iraqis and others who have found their way to Lebanon, a tiny country with only 4 million inhabitants located at the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea.
They wait, hoping that the conflicts raging in their homelands will one day end, and they can go back home. In the meantime, daily survival is the goal.
'Soufra' – serving up a feast in Burj el Barajneh
But in the permanent Palestinian refugee camp of Burj el Barajneh, the leader of a women's organization – the soft-spoken, but incredibly fierce and focused Mariam Shaar – has other ideas.
She doesn't just want her community to survive: she wants it to thrive.
Mariam runs the Women's Program Association (WPA) in Burj el Burajneh, which provides education, vocational skills training and micro-loans to women – most of whom, unlike today's new wave of refugees, were born in the camp.
In 2013, Mariam asked us at Alfanar for funds to set up a catering unit. She could see the opportunities to market delicious Palestinian food, build women's skills and confidence, and help WPA start to generate its own income.
We decided to take a risk on Mariam. As well as providing start-up funding to help cover the costs of the catering unit – now called 'Soufra', which means dining table in Arabic – we've provided Mariam and her team with business support and advice to set the business on the path to growth.
We are so glad we did. Surpassing Mariam's – and our – wildest dreams, with our help, Soufra recovered most of its costs in its first year.
Today, Soufra isn't just bringing refugee women an income – it is giving them a voice. Mariam describes the pride and joy the women in her kitchen experience when they head out of the camp on Saturdays to sell their products at Beirut's famous green market Souk el Tayyeb, or to cater a Ramadan iftar at the Spanish embassy.
Mariam's vision is close to becoming reality.
So why do we need your help?
During Alfanar's business planning work with Mariam, it became clear to us that while the business was growing, demand for catering is seasonal. That means lumpy revenue for Soufra – and erratic income for the women.
So we started brainstorming new ways of generating steady orders. As ideas were being thrown about, we remembered the US movie The Chef, and realised that if Mariam could buy a Soufra food truck, the women wouldn't have to just sit and wait for the phone to ring – they could take their food to straight where their customers are.
Staring us in the face was the solution: right outside Burj el Barajneh is a major hospital, which has high footfall…we worked out that this could be a great potential market to serve on a daily basis.
Our idea was a bit a controversial at first – the camp is a pretty conservative society, and women rarely leave it on their own, let alone to cook and sell food out of a truck!
But the Soufra team were soon convinced, and now love the idea of serving affordable, delicious lunches to people coming in and out of the hospital, with the chance to build Soufra's profile even further.
What we need to buy the food truck
Please help us raise the $48,640 we need to:
- Buy a food truck for Soufra
- Equip it with necessary equipment to safely serve food
- Cover its initial running costs for a year, including gasoline and maintenance
Once the food truck is up and running, we forecast that the revenues from food sales will:
- Cover the costs of running the truck
- Provide steady income to the women cooking and selling the food
- Generate additional review to support WPA's desperately needed education and empowerment activities
This is not a charity case…
Please help us to help these amazing women as they chop, slice, dice, sauté, fry, bake, and garnish their way to a better future for themselves and their families.
This is not a charity case, these are business women. They need more business, and they need your help.
So please contribute to our kickstarter campaign and find out just what the Soufra women are capable of!

NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 590: Duking It Out For The Single Card Kingby Ryan Smith on March 24, 2011 9:00 AM EST
Final Thoughts
If my final thoughts start sounding like a broken record, it's because once again a set of NVIDIA & AMD product launches have resulted in a pair of similarly performing products.
The crux of the matter is that NVIDIA and AMD have significantly different architectures, and once again this has resulted in cards that are quite equal on average but are all over the place in individual games and applications. If we just look at the mean performance lead/loss for all games at 2560, the GTX 590 is within 1% of the 6990; however, within those games there's a great deal of variance. The GTX 590 does extremely well in Civilization V as we'd expect, along with DIRT 2, Mass Effect 2, and HAWX. Meanwhile in Crysis, BattleForge, and especially STALKER the GTX 590 comes up very short. Thus choosing the most appropriate card is heavily reliant what games are going to be played on it, and as a result there is no one card that can be crowned king.
Of the games NVIDIA does well in, only Civ5 is a game we'd classify as highly demanding; the rest are games where the GTX 590 is winning, but it's also getting 100+ frames per second. Meanwhile on the games AMD does well at the average framerate is much lower, and all of the games are what we'd consider demanding. Past performance does not perfectly predict future performance, but there's a good chance the 6990 is going to have a similar lead on future, similarly intensive games (at least as long as extreme tessellation isn't a factor). So if you had to choose a card based on planning for future use as opposed to current games, the 6990 is probably the better choice from a performance perspective. Otherwise if you're choosing based off of games you'd play today, you need to look at the individual games.
With that said, the wildcard right now is noise. Dual-GPU cards are loud, but the GTX 590 ends up being the quieter of the two by quite a bit; the poor showing of the 6990 ends up making the GTX 590 look a lot more reasonable than it necessarily is. The situation is a lot like the launch of the GTX 480, where we saw the GTX 480 take the performance crown, but at the cost of noise. The 6990's performance advantage in shader-intensive games goes hand-in-hand with a much louder fan; whether this is a suitable tradeoff is going to be up to you to decide.
Ultimately we're still looking at niche products here, so we shouldn't lose sight of that fact. A pair of single-GPU cards in SLI/CF is still going to be faster and a bit quieter if not a bit more power hungry, all for the same price or less. The GTX 590 corrects the 6990's biggest disadvantage versus a pair of single-GPU cards, but it ends up being no faster on average than a pair of $280 6950s, and slower than a pair of $350 GTX 570s. At the end of the day the only thing really threatened here is the GTX 580 SLI; while it's bar none the fastest dual-GPU setup there is, at $1000 for a pair of the cards a quad-GPU setup is only another $400. For everything else, as was the case with the Radeon HD 6990, it's a matter of deciding whether you want two video cards on one PCB or two PCBs.
Quickly, let's also touch upon factory overclocked/premium cards, since we had the chance to look at one today with the EVGA GeForce GTX 590 Classified. EVGA's factory overclock isn't anything special, and indeed if it were much less it wouldn't even be worth the time to benchmark. Still, EVGA is charging 4% more for about as much of a performance increase, and then is coupling that with a lifetime warranty; ignore the pack-in items and you have your usual EVGA value-added fare, and all told it's a reasonable deal, particularly when most other GTX 590s don't come with that kind of warranty. Meanwhile EVGA's overclocking utility suite is nice to see as always, though with the changes to OCP (and the inability to see when it kicks in) I'm not convinced GTX 590 is a great choice for end-user overclocking right now.
Update: April 2nd, 2011: Starting with the 267.91 drivers and release 270 drivers, NVIDIA has disabled overvolting on the GTX 590 entirely. This is likely a consequence of several highly-publicized incidents where GTX 590 cards died as a result of overvolting. Although it's unusual to see a card designed to not be overclockable, clearly this is where NVIDIA intends to be.
Finally, there's still the multi-monitor situation to look at. We've only touched on a single monitor at 2560; with Eyefinity and NVIDIA/3D Vision Surround things can certainly change, particularly with the 6990's extra 512MB of RAM per GPU to better handle higher resolutions. But that is a story for another day, so for that you will have to stay tuned…

valenti - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - linkRyan, I commented last week on the 550 review. Just to echo that comment here: how are you getting the "nodes per day" numbers? Have you considered switching to a points per day metric? Very few people can explain what nodes per day are, and they aren't a very good measure for real world folding performance.
(also, it seems like you should double the number for this review, since I'm guessing it was just ignoring the second GPU) Reply
Ryan Smith - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - linkLast year NVIDIA worked with the F@H group to provide a special version of the client for benchmark purposes. Nodes per day is how the client reports its results. Since points are arbitrary based on how the F@H group is scoring things, I can't really make a conversion. Reply
poohbear - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - linkGood to see that a $700 finally has a decent cooler! Why would somebody spend $700 & then go and hafta spend another $40 for an aftermarket cooler??? nvidia & AMD really need to just charge $750 and hve an ultra quiet card, these people in this price range are'nt gonna squabble over an extra $50 for petes sake!!!! it makes no sense that they skimp on the cooler at this price range! this is the top of the line where money isnt the issue! Reply
Guspaz - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - linkLet's get this straight, nVidia. Slapping two of your existing GPUs together does not make this a "next-generation card". Saying that you've been working on it for two years is also misleading; I doubt it took two years just to lay out the PCB to get two GPUs on a single board.
SLI and Crossfire still feel like kludges. Take Crysis 2 for example. The game comes out, and I try to play it on my 295. It runs, but only on one GPU. So I go looking online; it turns out that there's an SLI profile update for the game, but only for the latest beta drivers. If you install those drivers *and* the profile update, you'll get the speed boost, but also various graphical corruption issues involving flickering of certain types of effects (that seem universal rather than isolated).
After two goes at SLI (first dual 285s, next a 295), I've come to the conclusion that SLI is just not worth the headache. You'll end up dealing with constant compatibility issues. Reply
strikeback03 - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - linkAnd that is why people still buy the 6970/580, rather than having 2 cheaper cards in SLI like so many recommend. Reply
JarredWalton - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - linkFor the record, I've had three goes at CrossFire (2 x 3870, 4870X2, and now 2 x 5850). I'm equally disappointed with day-of-release gaming results. But, if you stick to titles that are 2-3 months old, it's a lot better. (Yeah, spend $600 on GPUs just so you can wait two months after a game release before buying....) Reply
Guspaz - Friday, March 25, 2011 - linkI don't know about that, the original Crysis still has a lot of issues with SLI. Reply
Nentor - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - link"For the GTX 590 launch, NVIDIA once again sampled partner cards rather than sampling reference cards directly to the press. Even with this, all of the cards launching today are more-or-less reference with a few cosmetic changes, so everything we're describing here applies to all other GTX 590 cards unless otherwise noted.
With that out of the way, the card we were sampled is the EVGA GeForce GTX 590 Classified, a premium GTX 590 offering from EVGA. The important difference from the reference GTX 590 is that GTX 590 Classified ships at slightly higher clocks—630/864 vs. 607/853.5—and comes with a premium package, which we will get into later. The GTX 590 Classified also commands a premium price of $729."
Are we calling overclocked cards "more-or-less reference" cards now? That's a nice way to put it, I'll use it the next time I get stopped by a police officer. Sir, I was going more or less 100mph.
Reference is ONE THING. It is the basis and does not waver. Anything that is not it is either overclocked or underclocked. Reply
strikeback03 - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - linkBad example, as in the US at least your speedometer is only required to be accurate within 10%, meaning you can't get ticketed at less than 10% over the speed limit. This card is only overclocked by 4%. More importantly, they a) weren't sent a reference card, and b) included full tests at stock clocks. Would you rather they not review it since it isn't a reference card? Reply
Nentor - Thursday, March 24, 2011 - linkThat is a good point actually, I didn't think of that.
Maybe reject the card yes, but that is not going to happen. Nvidia is just showing who is boss by sending a non reference card. AT will have to swallow whatever Nvidia feeds them if they want to keep bringing the news. Reply

Clarke - We have no fear
Michael Clarke wants Australia to continue attacking in the field after moving 2-1 ahead in the One-Day series with Pakistan.
Last Updated: 28/04/09 10:00am
Stand-in captain Michael Clarke wants his team to continue attacking in the field after Australia beat Pakistan to move 2-1 ahead in the five-match one-day series in Abu Dhabi.
A flawless fielding display helped the Aussies come from the brink of defeat to gain what looked an improbable victory when Pakistan were cruising towards the 199 winning total on 95-0.
Clarke's troops took every catching opportunity to clinch a 27-run victory at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium - the highlight of which was the returning Andrew Symonds' stunning diving catch to dismiss Pakistan captain Younus Khan.
"I think it's just the attitude, no matter what we're going to have a go. If there's an opportunity to try and dive and take a good catch we're going to have a crack at it," Clarke told Fox Sports.
"If we drop it so be it. If we see an opportunity to get a run out we're going to throw the ball.
Fantastic spirit
"I think that's how we field our best, if we've got that intent and that attitude I think you'll see Australia field their best like that."
Clarke also refuted claims that team-mate Shane Watson approached umpires to complain about Pakistani off-spinner Saeed Ajmal's bowling action.
Ajmal, whose action was reported as illegal during the second ODI on Friday, accused Watson of conversing with the on-field umpires about his action.
But Clarke said: "All we know is that Watson certainly didn't go to the umpires and say a word, none of our players have approached (the umpires) and spoken about him (Ajmal).
"The series is being played in a fantastic spirit and we want to continue with that."
The fourth ODI will be played at the Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Friday.

Evaluation of Cross-Border Leakages in Community Support Frameworks. The case of Andalusia (Spain)
The enlargement of the European Union to 25 members implies that relative position of Andalusia will improve with regard to the new GDP per capita average. This fact may derive a reduction in structural funds support for this Spanish region objective 1. This paper is focused in the ex-post assessment of the CSF 1994–99 in Andalusia. Direct and indirect effects, as well as cross-border leakage are analysed. We aim to compare stimuli induced from structural funds in the rest of the national economy with those remaining in Andalusia. If effects on the rest of Spain were important in relative terms, the central idea of regional policy, which defines community convergence tools, would be questioned. Results show evidences for this hypothesis in the case of Andalusia, given the importance of the effects generated in the rest of Spain and the biases of CSF funds towards sectors with a high need for imports, some of which are characterized by an intensive use of the region's natural resources.

Tre'viance Markese Walker, 22, from Oklahoma, US was looking after his girlfriend's baby for a few hours on December 7 while he watched a football match on TV, police said.
After the baby's incessant crying, Walker allegedly grabbed the baby so hard that he caused head trauma and hematoma on the brain, which autopsy revealed killed the infant, 'Fox 25' reported.
He also dropped the infant from a height of two-feet, the report said.
The boy was found four hours later "unresponsive" with bruises in his head and blood in his ear.
The infant was taken to a local hospital where he was soon pronounced dead.
A neighbour reportedly heard Walker saying he grew angry because, "the baby wouldn't stop crying," police said.
Walker was arrested and police said he initially denied that he had harmed the child but later admitted the abuse.

Accusing the Congress of practising dynasty politics, Bharatiya Janata Party's prime ministerial nominee Narendra Modi on Wednesday blamed it for denying Pranab Mukherjee the PM's post at least twice -- in 1984 and 2004.
Kolkata: BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi on Wednesday blamed the Gandhi family for twice denying the opportunity to Pranab Mukherjee to be the country's prime minister.
"When Indira Gandhi was assassinated Rajiv Gandhi was in Kolkata and he went back. Under a democracy, that time the senior-most minister in Indira Gandhi's government was Pranab Mukherjee. It would have been good had he been sworn in as the country's prime minister," Modi told a party rally at Brigade Parade grounds here.

"They didn't give it. Not only that, the family (Gandhi) felt that something is going on. So when the Rajiv Gandhi government was formed, senior-most minister Pranabda was not even taken as a minister," he said.
"Again in 2004, Pranabda was the senior-most politician. It was very natural that had madam Sonia Gandhi not wanted to become (the PM), then the opportunity should have been given to Pranabda, but Manmohan Singhji was made (the PM). Pranabda was not given the opportunity," Modi said.
He urged the people of Bengal not to forget this. "People of Bengal should not forget this. I request you," the Gujarat chief minister said.

Crocodile Tears, Double Speak. Why was he silent when Pranab was denied the post. If he was really such a great desh bakht, he should have voiced his concern about having a able prime minister back then .All these years it was okay for him if a able person was not made a prime minister. He remained silent at the stake of the country suffering from a bad prime minister. So Modi chooses the well being of Bharat Mata as per his convenience. What a Banya? Wonder what he does if he becomes the P.M.

Batman Returns is a 1992 motion picture based on the Batman character created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger. It is the second Batman film, and the last in the series to be directed by Tim Burton and to star Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne/Batman. The departure of Burton and Keaton paved the way for the Joel Schumacher films. It was also the first film to feature Dolby Digital technology when it debuted in the summer of 1992.
Cobblepot Heir
- "I was their number one son, but they treated me like number two!"
- ―The Penguin[src]
The story begins 33 years ago at Christmas time in a mansion in Gotham. The wealthy Cobblepots have just given birth to a child - but it is shown that there is something horribly wrong with the child. They soon decide to abandon the child by dropping it into the sewers. As the baby's basket rushes through the sewers, the credits roll, and eventually the child comes to rest at the feet of a group of Emperor Penguins from the zoo.
Thirty-three years later, it is Christmas time again in Gotham, as the ambitious but ruthless business tycoon Max Shreck gives a speech at a treelighting ceremony. However, the speech is soon disrupted by a criminal group of clowns known as the "Red Triangle Circus Gang". Although Batman is summoned and is able to restore order, Shreck is kidnapped amidst the chaos and is brought to their leader, a short, deformed man known as "The Penguin". The Penguin informs Shreck of the reason he has taken him: he wishes to return to the society of Gotham, and he wants Shreck to help him achieve this. Shreck is skeptical, but the Penguin blackmails him with incriminating evidence of his more dubious business practices.
Creature Threesome
- Batman: "Mistletoe can be deadly if you eat it."
- Catwoman: "But a kiss can be even deadlier if you mean it."
- ―Batman and Catwoman[src]
Shreck arranges for the Penguin to "rescue" the mayor's infant child from his own gang members. The plan works, and Penguin becomes a hero to all except Bruce Wayne, who remains skeptical. The Penguin asks to be allowed to find his parents, and is given private access to the Gotham's Hall of Records, where he is seen jotting down an apparently unrelated list of names. He discovers his parents were a wealthy aristocratic couple. Adopting his birth name of Oswald Cobblepot, he publicly forgives his now-dead parents, winning more hearts and minds. Shreck decides to use Oswald's fame to his own advantage, persuading him to run for mayor to remove the final obstacle to building a new power plant. Cobblepot reluctantly agrees, noting he still has his own plans to carry out.
During this time, Shreck attempted to murder his timid secretary Selina Kyle when she discovered his "power plant" was in fact a giant capacitor, created to suck power from the city and give the Shreck family a complete monopoly over Gotham's power. She survived her subsequent defenestration at Shreck's hands after her body was circled by a large number of cats, and came back with a more assertive but unstable personality, ostensibly with a cat's nine lives (minus her first "death"). Kyle makes a homemade black vinyl catsuit and becomes a costumed vigilante under the name "Catwoman". During Penguin's efforts to cause chaos through his gang to create dissatisfaction with the current Mayor, Catwoman blows up Shreck's department store. She subsequently fights Batman, who had been neutralizing the Red Triangle Circus earlier, and is apparently killed again in the process when she falls off a roof.
A Plan is Forming
- "Sickos never scare me. At least they're committed."
- ―Selina Kyle[src]
While Selina Kyle is pursued in a romantic relationship with Bruce Wayne, as Catwoman she allies herself with the Penguin to get back at Batman for his killing her, although the two are still unaware of the other's alter-ego's. When the subsequent plan is put into action, Batman is framed for kidnapping and murder and finds himself trapped in the Batmobile under Penguin's control. He barely survives, but Cobblepot has become more popular than ever. Although their plan was a success, Catwoman and Penguin's alliance falls apart when she rebuffs a sexual advance from him, and Penguin opts to kill Catwoman himself. However, his campaign to recall the current mayor is quickly destroyed when Bruce Wayne plays selected comments he stated while controlling the Batmobile. He was recorded insulting the people of Gotham, and this audio is played over the sound system at a rally. Penguin flees into the sewers, renounces his humanity, and reveals his secret plan: kidnap and kill the firstborn sons of Gotham's most prominent by drowing them into the toxic water of his own base, as revenge against what was done to him.
Face to Face
- "You didn't invite me, so I crashed!"
- ―Penguin[src]
Before this scheme is launched, Bruce Wayne meets Selina Kyle at a dance hosted by Shreck, where she reveals to him her intentions to kill Shreck. The two subsequently discover the other's secret identity, but before they can leave to discuss this development, Penguin storms the hall and tries to take Max's son Chip. Max persuades Penguin to take him instead, and Bruce and Selina depart. Bruce, as Batman, attacks Penguin's Red Triangle Circus goons, and puts a stop to the kidnappings. However, Penguin has a backup plan: an army of rocket-armed penguins dispatched to bomb Gotham. But Batman manages to jam their control signals and turn the birds around so that they attack the base instead. Batman confronts the Penguin and in the end, the hero drops him into the toxic water of his base.
Batman glides through a broken window and discovers Catwoman has come to kill Shreck, which he unsuccessfully attempts to talk her out of as he is trying to bring Shreck to face the police. During this, Shreck draws a gun he took in the confusion and attempts to kill them both. Batman is shot once while Catwoman is hit four times, apparently leaving her with two "lives". She decides to sacrifice her next-to-last life by putting a taser in her mouth and "kissing" Shreck, while also grabbing hold of a large electric generator and pushing Shreck into it, causing a huge explosion. When the smoke clears, Batman searches the rubble for Selina, but all he finds is Shreck's smoldering corpse and Catwoman´s whip. Penguin, barely alive, emerges from the toxic water and grabs for his gun umbrella to kill Batman, but picks up his "cute" one by mistake. He finally falls dead on the floor and is slid gently into the water by the penguins as a final tribute.
- Alfred: "Well, come what may... Merry Christmas, Mr. Wayne."
- Bruce: "Merry Christmas, Alfred. Good will toward men... and women."
- ―Alfred and Bruce[src]
Driving through Gotham, Bruce sees Catwoman's shadow. Investigating, he only finds Selina's pet cat, which he decides to take home. As the bat-signal lights up in the sky, the figure of Catwoman appears looking at the signal from a rooftop.
Batman Returns received a lot of controversy for being too dark and received a PG-13 rating for brooding, dark violence by the MPAA. Like the first film the BBFC gave the film an original 12 rating but later re-rated it to a 15 rating.

The film's casting process was convoluted and, according to Burton, poorly managed. Annette Bening, Burton's original choice for Catwoman/Selina Kyle, bowed out due to her pregnancy. Sean Young, who had already missed out on the part of Vicki Vale in Batman, was so upset about not getting the part of Catwoman that she went to the studio in a homemade Catwoman costume to prove that she was a better choice. Madonna was also considered for the role. Billy Dee Williams was contractually entitled to play Harvey Dent, who would later become the villain Two-Face, and an early draft of Batman Returns included the role. Williams' contract was bought out, his characters' lines were given to Max Shreck, and all Two-Face elements were removed.

After the success of Batman, Warner Bros. was hoping for a sequel to start filming in May 1990 at Pinewood Studios. They spent $250,000 storing the sets from the first film. Tim Burton had mixed emotions from the previous film. "I will return if the sequel offers something new and exciting", he said in 1989. "Otherwise it's a most-dumbfounded idea". Burton decided to direct Edward Scissorhands for 20th Century Fox. Meanwhile, Sam Hamm from the previous film delivered the first two drafts of the script, while Bob Kane was brought back as a creative consultant. Hamm's script had Penguin and Catwoman going after hidden treasure.
Burton was impressed with Daniel Waters' work on Heathers; Burton originally brought Waters aboard on a sequel to Beetlejuice. Warner Bros. then granted Burton a large amount of creative control, demoting producers Jon Peters and Peter Guber to executive producers. Dissatisfied with the Hamm script, Burton commissioned a rewrite from Waters. Waters "came up with a social satire that had an evil mogul backing a bid for the Mayor's office by the Penguin", Waters reported. "I wanted to show that the true villains of our world don't necessarily wear costumes". The plot device of Penguin running for Mayor came from the 1960s TV series episodes "Hizzoner the Penguin" and "Dizzoner the Penguin". Waters wrote a total of five drafts.
On the characterization of Catwoman, Waters explained "Sam Hamm went back to the way comic books in general treat women, like fetishy sexual fantasy. I wanted to start off just at the lowest point in society, a very beaten down secretary". Harvey Dent appeared in early drafts of the script, but was deleted. Waters quoted, "Sam Hamm definitely planned that. I flirted with it, having Harvey start to come back and have one scene of him where he flips a coin and it's the good side of the coin, deciding not to do anything, so you had to wait for the next movie". In early scripts Max Shreck was the "golden boy" of the Cobblepot family, whereas Penguin was the deformed outsider. It turned out that Shreck would be the Penguin's long-lost brother. Max Shreck was also a reference to actor Max Schreck, known for his role as Count Orlok in Nosferatu. According to casting director Marion Dougherty, Burton was reportedly uncomfortable with casting Christopher Walken as Shreck, on the basis that the actor scared him.
Burton hired Wesley Strick to do an uncredited rewrite. Strick recalled, "When I was hired to write Batman Returns (Batman II at the time), the big problem of the script was Penguin's lack of a 'master plan'." Warner Bros. presented Strick with warming or freezing Gotham City (later to be used in Batman & Robin). Strick gained inspiration from a Moses parallel that had Penguin killing the firstborn sons of Gotham. A similar notion was used when the Penguin's parents threw him into a river as a baby. Robin appeared in the script, but was deleted due to too many characters. Waters feels Robin is "the most worthless character in the world, especially with [Batman as] the loner of loners". Robin started out as a juvenile gang leader, who becomes an ally to Batman. Robin was later changed to a black teenager who's also a garage mechanic. Waters explained, "He's wearing this old-fashioned garage mechanic uniform and it has an 'R' on it. He drives the Batmobile, which I notice they used in the third film!". Marlon Wayans was cast, and signed for a sequel. The actor had attended a wardrobe fitting, but it was decided to save the character for a third installment.
Michael Keaton returned after a significant increase in his salary at $10 million. Annette Bening was cast as Catwoman after Burton saw her performance in The Grifters, but dropped out due to pregnancy. Raquel Welch, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Lena Olin, Ellen Barkin, Cher, Bridget Fonda and Susan Sarandon were then in competition for the role. Sean Young, who was originally cast as Vicki Vale in the first film, believed the role should have gone to her. Young visited production offices dressed in a homemade Catwoman costume, demanding an audition. Burton was unfamiliar with Michelle Pfeiffer's work, but was convinced to cast her after one meeting. Pfeiffer received a $3 million salary ($2 million more than Bening) and a percentage of the box office. Pfeiffer took kickboxing lessons for the role. Kathy Long served as Pfeiffer's body double. On Danny DeVito's casting, Waters explained, "I kind of knew that DeVito was going to play The Penguin. We didn't really officially cast it, but for a short nasty little guy, it's a short list. I ended up writing the character for Danny DeVito".
The Batman Returns score was composed and performed by Danny Elfman. The soundtrack also includes "Face to Face", written by Siouxsie & the Banshees and Danny Elfman, used to promote the movie prior to its release. Two versions of the music video were made (the other added shots from the movie), and a club version, remixed by 808 State, was released. Elfman added chorus to main theme making it similar but not as dark as the original.
Although reviews were mixed, the film was a box office success and was the third highest grossing 1992 movie in North America. Many lauded the film's dark atmosphere and intense characters; the film has a freshness rating of 81% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is considered "fresh". However, some others found the film to be overly dark and sadistic and criticized it as inappropriate for children; McDonald's marketing tie-ins, including special cups and Happy Meal toys, were protested by parents' groups because they thought that Danny DeVito's Penguin portrayal would give children nightmares. However, the filmmakers intended that the film was not suitable for children, which is a probable reason why Batman Returns, like most Batman films, was rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America.
In addition to criticisms of the film's tone and demeanor, some found Burton's interpretation of the central characters problematic, arguing that the Penguin's physical deformity and homicidal tendencies, Catwoman's degenerative mental state, and Batman's brooding melancholy, as well as his tendency to kill criminals, simply added to the somber and unsettling nature of the film.
The initially negative reaction to Batman Returns, however, prompted Warner Brothers to re-think their approach to the franchise, and the series was handed to director Joel Schumacher, who adopted a much more lighthearted and camp approach to the characters. However, the generally very negative critical and fan reaction to the Joel Schumacher films in the franchise, particularly 1997's Batman & Robin, sparked a critical re-evaluation of Tim Burton's dark, gloomy and expressionistic first sequel in the franchise.
Box Office Performance
Awards and Nominations
- Batman Returns was nominated for two Academy Awards for Best makeup, and Best Visual Effects.
Batman Returns was released on VHS and Laserdisc in October 1992.
The film was first released to DVD five years later in 1997, shortly after the format debuted; it was a bare-bones, single disc release featuring the ability to watch the film either in widescreen or in fullscreen but not featuring any bonus materials.
To coincide with the release of Batman Begins on DVD in 2005, Warner Brothers decided to give all four of the original Batman films new DVD treatments and special edition versions of all four films were created. The special edition DVDs feature newly restored audio and video, a re-mastered Dolby Digital audio track, a new DTS audio track and a second disc filled with bonus materials. Each title is available both individually and as part of a pack featuring the special editions of all four films in the franchise. The Region 2 DVD is missing the director's audio commentary although it is listed on the box as a special feature, and is also censored. Although it restores the nunchaku sequence which was cut from the original Region 2 release, the scene in which Catwoman places aerosol cans in the microwave remains cut. The DVD also suffers from a very noticeable audio glitch. Although, in the Swedish and Bulgarian Region 2 DVD, the directors commentary is included, as is the scene with the aerosol cans. The audio glitch is also missing.
Behind The Scenes
- Sam Hamm's original script had Vicki Vale and also had The Penguin and Catwoman looking for buried treasure. Also, Batman would investigate Jack Napier's past life. However, the ideas were scrapped when Tim Burton returned to direct the movie.
- Daniel Waters' original script had the Batsignal blinking on and off at the end of the film as a sign that Selina's electrocution of Max had disrupted the power supply of the city. Tim Burton decided later in the production to end the film with Catwoman looking out at the signal over a snowy sky, hinting at her survival and possible appearance in a future film. Pfeiffer was not available, so an articulated, upper torso dummy was fabricated for the shot, but ultimately a body double was used. Test footage of the dummy is included with the 2005 DVD release bonus features.
- Robin was originally considered to be introduced in this movie, and had been written in the original script, but was later removed. However, despite Robin's exclusion from the movie, an action figure of Robin was still made.
- Max Shreck is a new character of the Batman franchise created in this movie. Originally, Harvey Dent would be played Shreck's role, and in the moment in that Catwoman electrocuted him, Dent would be survived, but his face was deformed by being electrocuted, and so would become Two-Face for the next film.
- According with the producers of Batman: The Animated Series, Shreck was planned to appear in the show, but Tim Burton didn't like the idea, and Roland Daggett was created in replacement.
- Many fans suggested that the The Riddler would be appeared in the film with Penguin and Catwoman. However, this rumor ended up false. Despite this, Riddler appeared in the next movie.
- This movie was an inspiration for LEGO Batman: The Videogame.
- A few months later after the movie's release, Batman: The Animated Series was released.
- Burgess Meredith, who played The Penguin in Batman: The Series, was considered for the role of Tucker Cobblepot. However, due to his illness, Meredith was forced to reject the offer, and Paul Reubens was hired for the role. Meredith died for his illness in 1998.
- Curiously, Paul Reubens returned to play The Penguin's father years later in the TV series Gotham.
- Originally, after this movie, Tim Burton would be directed the third installment of the saga. However, Burton was changed by Joel Schumacher, and didn't direct Batman Forever.

We conducted a systematic study on two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) of hemoglobin using the near transform-limited and Gaussian-shaped femtosecond pulse sources. We found that the two-photon action cross section of hemoglobin drops over 2 orders of magnitude in the wavelength range from 550 to , while the spectral and temporal characteristics of hemoglobin TPEF are insensitive to the change of excitation wavelength. In particular, our new findings showed that the hemoglobin fluorescence could be excited with sufficient efficiency using a conventional Ti:sapphire laser tuned at the wavelength close to . With the employment of a time-resolved detection method, we demonstrated that the TPEF signals of hemoglobin excited by a Ti:sapphire laser could be clearly differentiated from other nonlinear signals presented within the living biological tissues, indicating that a standard TPEF microscope can become a routine tool for in vivo label-free microangiography imaging.

Coming a day late (The Wall Street Journal broke the story yesterday which quickly sped through media outlets) Condé Nast announced this afternoon its plan to move its titles into the 21st century with its Digital Magazine Initiative. This includes the much-talked-about e-readers version of Wired magazine, which will "deliver full-color, high resolution magazines" to your smartphone, laptop and "netbooks."
But that's not the only thing S.I. Newhouse's team is working on: Condé Nast Digital has been busy reorganizing its sales sector into 5 different sectors, and hiring on its digital arm even as deep cuts are being made into its print divisions. Good strategy for looking ahead, or cutting off the nose to spite the face? You tell us.
Press release after the jump.

Company Announces Strategic Initiative with Adobe to Create Authoring Tools
Company is also in Discussion with Hewlett Packard
NEW YORK, November 19, 2009 — Condé Nast announced today a plan to develop magazines for the next generation of digital devices.
"We have formed a strategic alliance with Adobe to collaborate on creating technologies that will allow the company to design and produce a new generation of digital magazines," said Charles H. Townsend, President & CEO of Condé Nast.
One of the first products of this strategic alliance with Adobe will be a magazine application built on the Adobe AIR runtime. Adobe AIR lets developers use proven web technologies to build rich Internet applications that run outside the browser on multiple operating systems. The application is expected to be deployable to an array of devices from laptops and netbooks, to future generation smartphones, to the first electronic color slate devices due next year.
The initiative, which will first be deployed with Wired magazine, will enable Condé Nast to deliver full-color, high resolution magazines that combine the immersive experience of its award-winning titles with the convenience and functionality of a digitally distributed and internet-connected product.
"This is the next piece of the puzzle for developing our unique magazine content in a digitalized format that will drive the new devices that will hit the market in 2010," said Mr. Townsend. "Our hope is that the product of our work with Adobe will be used widely throughout the magazine industry."
"Condé Nast is home to renowned publishing brands, with magazines and reporting that help drive and hold a mirror to our culture," said John Loiacono, Senior Vice President of Creative Solutions at Adobe. "Our unique collaboration is a natural extension to the commitment that Condé Nast has made to the Open Screen Project and their support for the Flash platform. Condé Nast is trusting Adobe technology to deliver, in digital format, the high design values and visual aesthetic that readers and advertisers expect from them. We're confident that the resulting work will set new standards in visual impact and reader engagement for Wired and other flagship Condé magazines."
The announcement comes as Condé Nast is also expanding development of iPhone applications for many of its brands. Yesterday, the company began selling an iPhone version of the GQ "Men of the Year" issue through the iTunes App store. GQ's December issue is the first consumer magazine to be certified as a replica edition by the Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC), which means digital downloads will be counted in the magazine's paid circulation. Other iPhone applications have been launched by Lucky and Wired magazines, along with several of the company's digital properties, including Epicurious.com and Style.com.
In addition, Condé Nast said it is also in conversations with Hewlett Packard, one of the leading technology companies in the world. "Hewlett Packard shares the vision held by Adobe and Condé Nast for a more compelling way to publish and consume magazine content," said Satjiv S. Chahil, Senior Vice President, Global Marketing, Personal Systems Group, Hewlett Packard. "We are pleased to be involved with them in defining the technologies that will enable this transformation."
The effort with Adobe and the company's discussions with Hewlett Packard are intended to move beyond the current generation of eReader with black and white screens and deliver a full magazine-like experience, with high-resolution color displays. Many current devices do not carry advertising, but in its work for the iPhone and with Adobe, Condé is seeking to create the kind of environment its advertising partners value.
"These initiatives are part of a strategy by the company to extend its iconic brands into the digital world," continued Townsend. "Condé's goal is to create experiences that closely resemble the process of reading its print magazines. The creation of a digital magazine using Adobe's authoring tools will create reader engagement that matches or even exceeds what it achieves in print."

HP OpenVMS Systemsask the wizard
The Question is:
What are the implications of putting an Alpha 4100 server w/a CIPCA into a cluster with an HSC50 on the same CI? I know its not supported, but what does that mean? Is is because this has not been tested, that there are problems on the bus, or that the 4 100 cannot 'see' the hsc - if the latter, that's ok. We only need the hsc to get access to a 9-track tape drive.
The Answer is :
Unsupported simply means that an administrative decision to not support a particular configuration has been made. This decision can be based solely on business issues, on problems that were identified during testing, on incomplete testing, or on combinations of these and other factors. In general, more specific statements are not normally made. In this particular case, at least some testing and some evaluation of the configuration was performed, and at least some revision configurations involving HSC50 storage controllers and CIPCA CI controllers were found dysfunctional. You will want to consider a SCSI-based tape directly connected to the AlphaServer 4100 series, or the use of a more recent storage controller such as an HSJ-series storage controller.

To lower costs for the airlines he would also talk with various state government to bring down the price of aviation turbine fuel, which currently comprises around 50% of airlines cost as most state governments levy higher state level duties. He is all for facilitating more competition in the aviation sector and would bring about transparent guidelines to allow newer players to enter the market.
The minister told FE in the course of an interview that privatising Air India at this stage is not possible as the airline is not in a shape which would see buyers interested in it.
Putting the carrier back on rails will be a priority task for him but he agrees that a view regarding how it has to function in future on a long-term basis needs to be taken rather than leaving the issue open-ended.
On the current policy which bars the government from building another airport within a 150 km radius of the existing one, Raju said the issue would be seen on a case-by-case basis meaning where expansion of the existing airport is not possible like in Mumbai another one is coming up, but in Delhi where the existing one has enough expansion capacity, it makes sense not to build another.
On the issue of domestic airlines opposing the entry of new players, he said, any type of competition is healthy, and any competition resulting in people getting better facilities should be encouraged.

The Supreme-Court appointed Special Investigation Team has filed a report finding lack of evidence to charge Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi for a role in the 2002 killings in the state. This has been widely interpreted as the country's justice system having absolved Mr Modi of any culpability in the killings. This is absurd, for three reasons.
One, the SIT is not the court. The court has received the SIT report, all right. It still has to evaluate the report, along with the separate assessment, by the amicus curiae appointed by the Supreme Court, of the evidence compiled by the SIT and other material facts. The SIT is an investigation arm, not the judiciary.
Two, lack of evidence does not mean innocence. Take any of the unsolved crimes that dot the case histories of our police forces. Lack of evidence has led to failure to identify, leave alone apprehend, those who perpetrated these crimes. Just because no one has been pronounced guilty, does it mean that these crimes have no culprits?
Even when a plausible culprit is identified, it is possible that there is not sufficient evidence for successful prosecution. The Indian judicial system deems an accused innocent till he is proven guilty. This, of course, is entirely appropriate. However, it has the downside that the more perfect the execution of a crime, the criminal having taken care to destroy the evidence afterwards, the less the likelihood of his being punished.
In Mr Modi's case, evidence that could have established his guilt, in the form of crucial call records of those fateful days, have wilfully been destroyed by the Gujarat administration. These self-same call records could well have established his innocence as well, had these been available and had these shown that he or his office did not receive repeated, desperate calls from Mr Jafri at the Gulberg society before the mob got to him.
Three, Mr Modi is in command, if anything. He does not waffle, he does not dither and he does not suffer insubordination or indiscipline in the state administration. How come the Gujarat state apparatus wandered into a bout of lethargy precisely when communal tension was at its height and mischief-makers were visibly in action, crying havoc and letting slip the dogs of war? Did Mr Modi temporarily lose control or was he in total control when the state machinery played comatose?
The Supreme Court found it necessary to appoint an amicus curiae to make an independent assessment of the evidence compiled by the SIT. Reportedly, it has reached conclusions different from those of the SIT. The courts would consider this report as well. It is in the public interest to make both the SIT report and the amicus curiae's report available in the public domain.

Appraisals are underway in most organizations. Some of us are hopeful of a raise. Some of us are hopeful of a promotion. After all, we stuck to our guns (the organization to be precise) during the deadly recession. We have executed the responsibilities of an engineer one level up, but our designation rots at one level down. Or so we think. Our friends/batch mates in other organizations are already leads/managers and making lots of money while we still struggle to make ends meet in terms of money as well as the roles we play hiding behind designations.
As a college-goer, I kept staring at Infosys/Wipro/TCS buses and the employees' access cards on many days as I waited for my bus. I dreamt of finding a job (just any job) for gaining good experience as a fresher. I also dreamt about how I would be promoted to the next level as Senior Test Engineer after two years. I also imagined that by the time, I have like 6 years experience in testing; I would be a Team Lead. And then, obviously I would become a manager in a couple of years. I relived this dream each day until I became the CEO of some company with the fattest paycheck in the family. I was mostly amused with the idea of being a role model to all the younger kids in my family. Till date, it has been just that – a dream.
To the best of my knowledge, higher designations are awarded as promotions to encourage outstanding employees to take on newer responsibilities and help the organization achieve higher objectives. Typically, they are given for people who are already acting in that role for a few years. Promotions also happen to uplift employees salaries if the money they make is too less for the quality and quantity of work they do. Promotions also happen when some key employees threaten to quit if they are not promoted with jazzy designations on time. Promotions happen also because some managers might think that it is one of the easiest ways to project that their team is an outstanding team. You never know. He may be expecting a promotion himself.
What's in a name? How does it matter if you are an Associate Software Tester or a Senior Software Tester? You might say "Money" and "Type of Work". May be, you are right. If these are what matter to you, then why do you quit organizations because you did not get a fancy designation? Why argue over it? Why compare against others? Why fool yourself? As long as you are happy with the work, and get paid well enough, it should not matter what designation you hold.
I have seen designations create a divide rather than unify the teams. The entire concept of bell curve, normalization and foul play wrecks havoc to team spirit. Outcome – demotivated employees. Some designations appear to give great power over others which are precisely the reasons why many want these high power positions. In this fight for designations, team members end up fighting, involve in useless gossip and encourage unethical ways to promote wrong people who rule from the throne as if they are the chosen warriors for fighting people's war. As humans, we love money, power, status, position amongst others. In that journey, we sometimes fail to be human.
Are we a designation hungry generation? Why are we making a fuss out of it? Why are some people giving up great jobs just for designations sake? I know of a friend who quit his job just because he did not get designated his way. What I also know is that he was so much in love with the work there that he almost misses it at his new job. Letting go of great work for a fancy designation sounds very weird to me. Weigh down right.
Wake up guys!

Orange County Sheriff's deputies have arrested an Anaheim woman on suspicion of dumping her newborn daughter in a trash bin.
Sheriff's spokesman Jim Amormino said the 19-year-old, whose name was not released, was being treated Thursday at a hospital. He said she will be booked into county jail after being medically cleared.
The woman came under suspicion Wednesday when she went to West Anaheim Medical Center and complained of pain. A doctor who examined her recognized that she had just given birth, but the woman denied it. The hospital called police, and investigators were able to determine she dined at a Mexican restaurant in Stanton the night before.
They went to the restaurant and found the body of a full-term infant in the trash bin in the back alley.

San Antonio Spurs Manu Ginobili spoke to the media after Sunday night's win over the Miami Heat in game five of the NBA Final.
SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS: Game Five
Miami Heat – 104
San Antonio Spurs – 114
Q. Manu, when did you find out you were starting tonight? And did that affect your mentality going into the game?
MANU GINOBILI: I found out yesterday before practice. He came to me and told me I was going to start because of the way they had been starting. Not anything else. He wanted to play from the beginning four smalls. So he told me I was going to start.
And it really didn't affect╩‑‑ I just had a better game, but I'm not sure it was just because I started. It just happened. I made the first two shots. I played with Tony more, so I was off the ball in more situations. I attacked better, get to the free‑throw line a little bit more, and those things combined got me going.
Q. After the series you had so far, did you almost need game like that just to feel confident about yourself?
MANU GINOBILI: Yeah, yeah, for sure. I needed to make a couple of shots. Not that I made that many; from the three‑point line I still shot 1‑for‑4. But I just had a better overall offensive game, and I needed to feel like that.
So good that it happened in an important situation.
Q. After some of the criticism maybe you had heard the last couple of days, could you describe your feelings during that moment when the crowd is basically chanting your name, 18,000 strong?
MANU GINOBILI: As I said before, I needed it. I was having a tough time scoring, and I needed to feel like the game was coming to me, and I was being able to attack the rim, get to the free‑throw line, and make a couple of shots.
So it felt great when I heard that. To feel that I really helped the team to get that 20‑point lead, it was a much‑needed moment in the series. So I'm glad to see it happen.
Q. Manu, the last time you had a 24‑10 game was way back in 2008. When did you realize in this game that you were back in a rhythm that you needed to be in? How early?
MANU GINOBILI: The first two long‑distance shots went in, and that helped. I knew that I was going to be more aggressive regardless if those shots didn't go in. But I really didn't expect a 24‑point game. It didn't happen all season long.
The assists just happens. When your teammates and╩‑‑ we shoot 60%, it's easy to get assists. I think I passed the ball pretty well last game, too. It just happened that we couldn't score. So that's a different part.
But I needed to feel more important, more of a threat attacking the rim, and good to see it happen.
Q. Manu, it looked like tonight there was more isolations, whether it was you or Tony, you were just taking guys off the dribble. Were there more isolations tonight?
MANU GINOBILI: I think I designed╩‑‑ I ran only one, like the end of the third quarter, because I didn't want them to blitz me and we couldn't control the time. I knew it was the last possession, so I wanted to have control of having taking the last shot.
Tony had a few more because he was rolling, and we knew that was going to happen. My thing was just moving the ball and attacking seams. It's not they were just falling flat and going one against my defender. It just happened randomly.
Q. Timmy said yesterday that he thought you were angry with yourself the last couple of days. Was he accurate? And what were you angry about?
MANU GINOBILI: I was angry, disappointed. We are playing in the NBA Finals, we were 2‑2, and I felt I still wasn't really helping the team that much. And that was the frustrating part.
I really╩‑‑ I'm being honest╩‑‑ I don't care about scoring 24. But just being more aggressive, trying to get to the line, being sharper with the passes. For example, Game 3 I was thrilled and I scored 7, too. But we moved the ball so well, everybody felt so active and responsive, and we all attacked and passed well. I don't care about that. I was very happy.
But Game 4 was a different situation, and I was a little upset.
Q. Manu, you're much loved in this town and you haven't received much criticism over the years. When all of a sudden a lot of people are saying, "what's wrong with Manu?" "What's going on?" Did any part of that hurt at all? Was that difficult to hear some of that criticism or what?
MANU GINOBILI: I really don't know exactly what was going on, but with so much media around, they ask you things that you are not used to answer. So that's when you realize you're being criticized. But I really don't read what's going on. I knew that I was not scoring much, and I feel it in the air. But I tried not to care about it.
I know╩‑‑ I'm critical enough of myself to be worrying about what other people say. So as I was telling before, I was frustrated enough knowing what I played, how I played and what I could do better. So I really didn't need to listen what other people were saying or reading about it.
Q. Pop was saying a few minutes ago how popular you are here in town. You walk around, it seems like everybody is wearing a Ginobili jersey. Did any part of you think, I'm letting these people down, all these great fans I have?
MANU GINOBILI: Yeah, sometimes. Sometimes. You know, we all are very popular. In Argentina there's a lot of people following and your family and friends and everybody, they think great of you and they expect great things. And sometimes that affects you a little bit.
But at the end of the day, we all watch video. I watched the game again, and I see and I watched the things I could do better, how I pass the ball, and I don't think that I struggled that much. I just wasn't much of a factor offensively. And I had to be more aggressive.
But we talk in the team and we╩‑‑ that's what I care the most about, what Pop thinks and what Pop tells me what to do and what TD and Tony expects from me and other teammates. That's the main concern now.

My Envy Box Review
What are your plans for New Years Eve ladies??Me and my friends go to this place every year for new years (Magique for those in Delhi) , but after 3 successive years of going there we decided we should try something different, except noone really has any clue where else to go? So im sitting on the 18th, with absolutely nowhere to go and prices that are rising faster than a Diwali Rocket ! So if you have your plans all sorted and are planning to get all dolled up and go to some fab party then i am supremely jealous because for the first time in about 4 years, i have zero plans at the moment ! Nil . Nada. Zilch.
Talking about jealousy, the people over at the My Envy Box think their box is going to do just that. Make all the girls around you envious- they should have made it green dont you think? (I have to say, the only time im going to be jealous of a box, is if it has like Ryan Gosling jumping out from it ..*mental image*)
But coming back to the point, My Envy Box is basically the latest of these ' Sample Box' concepts which is an Indo-French box service. You guys know the drill by now- pay a monthly fee, get a box of luxury sample sized products that you can use and then once yv used up your samples and you feel like you totally love some of them, you can log on to the site and actually buy the full sized product! Kind of like Blisscovered and Velvette Box etc !
I think its hard to really ' review' a box service without being a consistent member but this is what my box contained:
– Roberto Cavalli Perfume Sample
– Avene Eau Thermale Emulsion
– Remy Laure Eye Contour Cream
– Remy laure Eye Contour Gel
– Remy Laure Eye Contour Mask
– Elle Magazine (Yes, the full magazine)
– Bonne Marie Strawberry Preserve
Overall this is what i thought:
– Right now i am in the process of experimenting with a lot of skincare, so it was a fun box for me because the Remy Laure stuff was the kind of things i wanted to try at the moment ! Plus they have Shiseido, Loccitane etc on board so kudos for that
– The sample sizes are 5ml to 10 ml, but honestly i dont care about how big or small the samples are- the essence of the boxes is to make you 'try' something and there was enough inside for a weeks use atleast!
– I specially liked the little cards with information that they put into it- definitely something useful and interesting to read.
– Infact i even got a full Elle Magazine with my box along with a cute little tub of strawberry preserve (which the boy has devoured). So super high points for the Elle Magazine that was a nic e surprise !
– To me whats impressive is that they are one of the few box brands that have actually tied up with the Original brands- i dont know if many of you know this, but a lot of box services in India buy samples illegally from the grey market (heck, forget samples a lot of top Indian websites do that ..lets not get into names) so its nice to see someone who has gone about it the right way.
– I also like that they have like special curated boxes like ' The Goa Box' or ' The Elle Magazine Box'.
– What could be better: I definitely think they need some makeup in there- its going to be hard since sample sizes in makeup dont exist but i dont know maybe they can find a way out? I definitely would like to have a bit of color in my box for me to continue subscription!
My Envy box is priced at Rs 850/- .
