Boston, July 25, 2004
Social Forums from Brazil to India and now Boston are often accused of failing to generate anything more concrete than a brief up-tick in Fair Trade coffee sales, but that's not exactly fair.
Despite what critics of the movement say–that opponents of neoliberalism are more proficient in puppetry than in articulating solutions to global economic ills–those who do believe in the possibility of another world have been quite effective at summing up that vision. It's clear, for example, that the Forum crowd opposes the privatization of water; that they support economic models that put the globe's people above profit; and that, when given a choice, they'd pick peace over war any day.
But aside from these big-ticket items, much of the "another world is possible" view remains murky. For example, what will we do for amusement in this other world? Will there be a dress code? Will papers still be sold at our events? While a weekend at the Boston Social Forum wasn't able to provide answers to all of these questions, it did put some of them to rest.
We Are Party People
BSF attendees rocked into the wee hours Saturday night to the sounds of Billy Bragg, local rap-consciousness boys the Foundation and the Reagan Babies at the "Another World is Possible" benefit party in Cambridge. But the late-night affair was far from the only party at the BSF. Plenty of the political variety were on the scene as well, from the International Socialist Organization to the recently expanded Committees of Correspondence (now the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism). The heavy presence of sectarians lent a fevered air to even innocuous sounding workshops on topics like labor rights, or challenging corporate power. ("I don't have a question, I have an answer," said one such party member, taking the floor at Friday's opening convocation.) Said one attendee, who appeared visibly shaken after having run the left party gauntlet: "They all want me to buy their newspaper, but what am I supposed to do with all of them?" Then an idea came: "I could use them to line my bird cage."
New Docs
If the Boston Social Forum introduced Beantown to a laid-back Forum vibe, more common in Brazil than in this uptight burg, it also marked something of a cultural coming of age on the left. Documentary films including Fahrenheit 9/11, The Corporation and Outfoxed are only the most visible of a flourishing, left-of-center, documentary film movement. The BSF screened more than forty largely well-done independent documentaries, ranging from professional jobs to low-budget, "guerilla" productions. One to watch: Julie Rosenberg, co-producer of the disturbing portrait of Colombian trade unionist Hector Giraldo.

Huzzah! Rapid sundries procurement at the Trading Post. I even splurged on a lovely display of Gerbera hybrida to add some color to our home during these dreary midwinter days. Oh dear. Frozen precipitation. Must hustle the wagon to the general grocer posthaste. # ThisIsMySaturday # SoundsBetterThisWay
I was getting out of hand, but I was running errands on a Saturday morning instead of drinking coffee and reading a book, which is what I wanted to be doing.
Dear me. It appears most of the village has congregated at the general grocer. May need to brandish the buggy whip.
# ThisIsMySaturday # SoundsBetterThisWay
Somehow the lot was full but the store not. For a Saturday morning, I call that a win.
Oh, I do hope the eldest son has risen from his slumber, for I shall require assistance with the day's purchases.
CHANTECLER Bracelet for Women Black Rose Gold 9Kt 2017 One Size lbcD1XHus
By this point, it was well after noon, and if he hadn't been up I would have hired a marching band to blast him out of bed. I know people, I can get that done .
Eldest son was engaged in an extended visit to the privy and unable to assist with the day's purchases. If he had still been abed, I would have spent the remainder of the afternoon investigating educational institutions of a military nature.
The intense concern for my son's colon from friends was amusing and appreciated, but said son has a phone and a reddit account, so I guarantee his colon is just fine, thankyouverymuch .
My Saturday only got better from there, as I had the pleasure of emptying the central vacuum bin and scrubbing the tile floors. NOBODY SATURDAY NIGHTS LIKE I DO.
But at least I can laugh at it.
A personal note. I'm going on a bit of a personal hiatus here, not that you'd be able to tell as posting has been sporadic at best. But I have a book to finish and, more urgently, I've taken on a new job. It's only part-time, and it's only until June, but I'm pretty sure the middle school band students I now teach know how to use the google and I'd prefer to not give them loads of gossip about my smart-ass snark and salty mouth. As I have flute students who have
started following me on Instagram, I'm sure this is too little too late, but at least I'm making an attempt. We'll see how long that attempt lasts, as I plan to participate in upcoming blog hops. So, what I'm saying is…probably nothing will change but I'm teaching in a public school and ya just never know.
Peace out.

Feb 19 2018
For some reason, I have several friends with newborns right now. I see their posts on Facebook about sleepless nights and my heart goes out to them. I remember those days and nights far too well. Ok, full disclosure…I don't remember those days and nights very well at all, because sleep deprivation is real and I'm pretty sure those months of barely conscious parenting left giant gaps in my grey matter. But I definitely remember how awful it all was. Begging this mewling creature to please, for the love of all things, go to sleep. Freezing stock still after putting him into his crib, believing that infants were like T. rexes and their sight was motion-based (fact: it is not. Infants track onto parental sleeplessness and terror, so we're all doomed from the start). Discovering that a stretch of sleep longer than two hours was better than any sex you'd ever had or would ever have again. Sleep, glorious sleep. I feel for them.
It is every pop and rock star's nightmare: missing out by the narrowest of margins on the coveted Christmas Number One spot because of the public's unnerving appetite for "novelty" tracks such as Mr Blobby or, for the past four years, the inescapable X Factor.
Almost since the charts started 50 years ago, musicians have been frustrated by the nation's fondness for froth. This year, however, record-buyers (and downloaders) are in revolt. The latest spawn of Simon Cowell is being held off the top spot by an expletive-laden alt rock anthem recorded 17 years ago. Rage Against the Machine have gone head-to-head with The X Factor's Joe McElderry. So far, Geordie Joe is behind on points, with today his last chance to land a knockout blow.
Zack de la Rocha's "Killing in the Name" could not be further from the Hannah Montana ballad "The Climb", this year's offering from the ITV talent show. Whether or not Rage win the top spot battle, it could still be said that they – with the help of a huge Facebook campaign – won the war, with 60,000 sales more than Joe last week.
Dave McAleer, record historian for the Official Charts Company, spoke for many yesterday, saying he'd love to see X Factor kicked off the number one pedestal. "It works wonderfully well," he said, "but I can't wait for it to stop working wonderfully well."
Rage guitarist Tony Morello, who has pledged that his unexpected royalty bonus will go to Britain's Youth Music charity, told BBC6 Music: "This is a grassroots effort. Your country has such a rich history of exciting rebel music. It's a little dose of anarchy for the holidays; it's good for the soul."
Kenny Rogers and the First Edition – Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town
"Success is never what drove me – I always loved the music," Kenny said after he lost out to Rolf Harris and "Two Little Boys". "It wasn't so much that I could make great money or do this, that or the other; it was that I could do everything that I truly loved for a living."

Argentine Bahiagrass is a warm season perennial grass imported from South America about 65 years ago. Imported as an improved forage grass for livestock, it was soon recognized as a good choice as a lawn grass. Recognized for its ability to thrive in a wide range of soil types with minimal maintenance it soon became one of the most popular lawn and pasture grasses in the Deep South. Characteristics of Argentine Bahia are a wider leaf, darker green color, fewer seed spikes, and stay green and tender longer in the fall than other Bahia varieties. Forms a dense sod from seed and root stolen.
Pensacola Bahiagrass is a warm season perennial pasture grass discovered near Pensacola, Florida, by a University of Florida Agricultural Extension Agent. Pensacola provides abundant forage even on the poorest of soil types. Used also as a lawn grass on poor sandy areas and used throughout the deep south as a road embankments grass. Prolific seed production during the summer months May through September. Spreads by seed and root stolen.
Developed at the University of Georgia in the mid 60'S Tifton 9 came from a unique strain of Pensacola Bahia. Very fast growth, great drought tolerance, and improved cold tolerance are a few of the unique characteristics of Tifton 9. Due to the fast growth characteristics in the summer we do not recommend Tifton 9 as a lawn grass. However, the fast growth makes it an excellent choice for forage and hay production.
Bahia grasses are very good low maintenance, warm season, perennial grasses used for both lawn and pastures throughout the deep south. Argentine and Pensacola are dual purpose grasses used both for lawns and pasture. Tifton 9 bahiagrass is used primarily as a pasture grass or for hay production.

ROME (AP) — Police in southern Italy on Friday broke up a multi-million euro insurance fraud racket run by a crime syndicate that depended on the collusion of doctors, lawyers and auto repair shop owners.
Rodolfo Ruperti, a police official based in Catanzaro, a stronghold of the Calabria-based 'ndrangheta syndicate, said the bosses of the Giampa' clan used the proceeds from the reporting of fake accidents — millions of euros each year — to pay the "salaries" of rank-and-file mobsters.
A total of 65 warrants were issued, but many of those sought were already in prison for other crimes.
In a separate crackdown in the Rome seaside suburb of Ostia, police aided by search dogs and helicopter surveillance fanned out to arrest 51 people suspected of involvement in a money laundering scam that used the town's bathing establishments and other local businesses, prosecutors and police told a news conference.
The investigation, aided by information supplied by turncoats from the Sicilian Mafia, probed a series of killings, arson fires and bombings of businesses to intimidate owners into letting mobsters' infiltrate or take over the enterprises.
In another development, Italy's war on organized crime has a new anti-Mafia czar, Franco Roberti, a veteran prosecutor who has battled the Camorra crime syndicate in the Campania region. He fills the vacancy created a few months earlier when Pietro Grasso, now Senate president, quit to enter politics.
Italy's anti-mafia initiatives have relied heavily on turncoats, but some of the top imprisoned bosses have resisted.
Among those is Bernardo Provenzano, the reputed "boss of bosses" who was captured in a farmhouse near Corleone, Sicily, in 2006, after decades on the run. Imprisoned for life for the murders of more than a dozen mobsters, Provenzano has been held in strict conditions prescribed by law for convicted organized crime bosses, including infrequent visits by family members.
On Friday, prosecutors, citing health reasons, gave their backing to less stringent prison conditions for Provenzano, Italian news reports said. Last year, he had brain surgery after injuring his head in a fall at a top-security prison, and his health has reportedly been deteriorating. The justice ministry must still sign off on any easing of prison conditions for Provenzano.

Always providing practical information, he is a master at tackling technical topics and making them easy for all of our readers to understand. He and his wife, Becky, live near Bouton, Iowa.
The word "re-work" sends chills down a mechanic's spine. It means having to repeat a repair because some aspect of the original repair failed. It means an unhappy customer. It means the mechanic may "lose money" because in some cases he won't get paid for having to do the same repair twice. It's a bad deal.
Some re-work is flat-out due to mistakes. We all make mistakes, and they must be corrected. A limited amount of re-work is due to faulty parts. If that's the case, the dealership usually tries to get the manufacturer to stand behind the faulty parts, and to pay for not only the newest set of parts but also the mechanic's labor to replace the faulty parts.
Some re-work just "happens." Some machines refuse to be fixed. All a mechanic can do is tear things apart again, carefully examine the situation, and then determine if there is a microscopic flaw, aberration or misalignment that is causing repeated failure of the piece or component.
Honesty helps. I once repeatedly had to repeatedly unplug the threshing cylinder on a combine. My boss was beginning to wonder if I was misaligning the concave or doing something that made the machine prone to plugging. After the third trip to laboriously dig out material packed between the concave and rasp bars, the operator finally confessed that he had been using the combine to "mow" the grass and weeds in waterways when he crossed them, rather than raising the header over the lush green growth. Once he used the combine only to combine soybeans, his (and my) problems with plugging the concave disappeared.
The most frustrating type of re-work is intermittent electrical problems. Things like seed tube sensors that sometimes work and sometimes don't, or sprayer boom shut-offs that sometimes don't turn on/shut off like they're supposed to. A mechanic can't fix something if it's not broke, and trying to diagnose an intermittent problem is a hair-puller because you can't be certain it's "broke" while your testing, or if the testing has accidentally jiggled a faulty wire or connection and "fixed" the intermittent problem.
That's why, if you call a mechanic to come fix a gushing oil leak, a smoking belt or a smoldering bearing, they usually are confident as they make the repair. It was plainly, obviously "broke." Confidence is harder to come by when the mechanic is chasing some nasty little electrical gremlin causing an intermittent electrical problem.

The first drug I was prescribed was Tegretol but the side effects of it were so horrible that I chucked it and went unmedicated for years. During that time I learned how to at least get some measure of control over my condition through diet and exercise. I cut out all caffeine, booze, and sugar and got into body building. Other than the tofu and the brown rice, I was pretty much primal without knowing it. That really helped but I still had about a seizure per week.
About 20 years ago I was prescribed Phenobarbitol which made things much better. Maybe one seizure a month. Then 7 years ago I added Valproic Acid to the mix and have been seizure free since then. It's wonderful.
Now I have been researching non-phamaceutical ways to deal with epilepsy and it turns out ketosis has been used effectively for ages, but, since the advent of the pills, kind of got forgotten. I am concerned about the long term build up of pharmaceuticals in my body.
So, I'm doing a little N=1 here with myself on a strict keto diet and reducing the medication gradually. I have cut my Phenobarbitol dose by 25% (3 pills instead of 4 per day) (And, yes, my neurologist is being kept in the loop)
So far so good. I'm feeling great and sleeping better and being able to bounce out of bed more easily. I think some of this may be the metabolic suppression side effect of this drug.
I know that there are a few other PBers out there who have seizures. Has anybody done any dosing experiments since they have gone Primal?

Predators' Fisher out 4-6 months after foot surgery
The Nashville Predators could be without center Mike Fisher until the middle of the upcoming season due to a foot injury.
The team announced Monday that Fisher ruptured an Achilles tendon last week while training, and he underwent surgery Thursday. The recovery period is expected to last four to six months, meaning Fisher is likely to miss at least 20 games in the 2014-15 season.
General manager David Poile told the Tennessean, "I hope we have enough depth. We will give certain guys a chance to be successful and give Mike a chance to get back."
Fisher, 34, posted a career-high 29 assists last season, and he added 20 goals. It was his sixth campaign with at least 20 goals.
The Predators' alternate captain is halfway through a two-year, $8 million contract.
Nashville did not land a center in recent days despite making runs at Jason Spezza, Ryan Kesler and Paul Stastny, the Tennessean reported. Spezza was dealt from the Ottawa Senators to the Dallas Stars, and Kesler was traded from the Vancouver Canucks to the Anaheim Ducks. Stastny, formerly of the Colorado Avalanche, signed a four-year, $28 million free agent deal with the St. Louis Blues.
"We're not going to sign a player for the sake of signing," Poile told the Tennessean about replacing Fisher. "It has to be a fit."

Two days after its first loss, Syracuse played like a top team again.
Kris Joseph scored 17 points Monday night, repeatedly driving past defenders for layups, and No. 3 Syracuse recovered from its first loss of the season by beating Cincinnati 60-53 with an offense that attacked inside and a defense that had its way.
"We had to come into this game with a lot of focus," said Joseph, who scored 11 in the second half. "What's done is done. It was a tough night (at Notre Dame) for everybody. You can't let a loss lead to another loss."
The Orange (21-1, 8-1 Big East) used a late 12-2 run to pull away from the Bearcats (15-6, 5-3), who tried to use the energy of their first home sellout to get a signature win.
Instead, coach Jim Boeheim came away with career victory No. 877, moving him ahead of Adolph Rupp into sole possession of fourth place on the Division I coaching list.
He'll remember this one more for his team's grit.
"I told our players this was probably as good a regular-season bounce-back win that I can remember at Syracuse," said Boeheim, in his 36th season as coach. "We were just so woeful (Saturday) night. To come in here with that atmosphere to start the game and play the way we did I thought was tremendous."
Syracuse was coming off a 67-58 loss at Notre Dame on Saturday that ended the best start in school history and cost the Orange their No. 1 ranking.
"You have to go over bumps," guard Brandon Triche said. "When we played against Notre Dame, it was a bump. We didn't want to go over more of them."
That lone loss stuck with Boeheim, who couldn't believe his team had played so badly at Notre Dame and wondered how it would react two days later.
"I don't think I've ever had a game where not one guy did anything," Boeheim said. "Not only didn't they do anything, but they played badly — every guy.
"I watched the tape twice because I couldn't believe what I was watching — seniors making defensive errors, missing easy shots. It was just an awful experience. If we'd have played that way here tonight, we would have gotten beat by 30 points."
Instead, they quickly got back on their game. Their zone defense held Cincinnati to 53 points, matching its season low against Xavier.
Cashmere Wright had 17 points for Cincinnati, which suffered its first back-to-back losses of the season. The Bearcats were coming off an overtime loss at West Virginia on Saturday.
"If you've got an opportunity to close out a game, you've got to take it," power forward Yancy Gates said. "Because if the other team gets it, nine times out of 10 they're going to take it. We've got to do a better job of closing it out at the end."
The Bearcats wore throwback uniforms for their biggest home game of the season. Most of the 13,176 fans dressed in white, and the coaches wore white button-down shirts without jackets. Syracuse's late spurt sent them to the exits before the buzzer.
The Orange was missing 7-foot center Fab Melo for the second straight game. Melo is their top rebounder and shot blocker. The school hasn't disclosed the reason for his absence.
Syracuse leads the Big East with 78.9 points per game and 48 percent shooting, fueled by fastbreak layups off turnovers. Cincinnati kept it close until the late Orange run.
The Bearcats fed off the crowd's energy and made four of their first five shots from behind the arc, including three long 3s by Wright, for a 15-6 lead. They went cold after that and had trouble scoring consistently.
C.J. Fair had a fastbreak dunk and a baseline jumper during a 9-0 run that tied it at 15. Both defenses then dug in, keeping it close the rest of the half.
Syracuse never led during its loss at Notre Dame, unable to overcome a slow start. The Orange got their first lead Monday in the final minute of the half. Joseph had a driving dunk — he went past two Bearcats on the baseline — and Dion Waiters hit a pull-up jumper with a second left for a 28-25 halftime lead.
Cincinnati went inside to Gates at the start of the second half and got a lot of open shots. The power forward had three layups and a 15-foot jumper, scoring eight of the Bearcats' first 13 points in the half.
Gates had his best offensive game since returning from a six-game suspension for a brawl against Xavier, scoring 16 points.
Syracuse finally found its touch from behind the arc. Scoop Jardine hit a 3 with 9:30 left — the Orange had been 0 for 8 — and Triche followed with another during the 12-2 run that gave the Orange their biggest lead at 52-44 with 6:08 to go.
Another 3 by Jardine pushed it to 59-48 with 1:52 left, sending the white-shirted fans to the exits.

Good morning Russell'
I ordered some warranty parts from you several weeks ago and haven't received the parts yet.
I am the one that the hook broke off on. I ordered the wrong part first and got it,but when I saw my mistake and ordered the right part it never came.
Since then my Hi side knob has broken again and so has another clamp and the holder for the clamp on the left side wobbles and I can't tighten it.
I like my SMAN3 but some of the plastic leaves something to be desired.
PS I do not abuse my tools.
Thanks Bob

Chris Leak knows what it takes to win a national title at Florida.
The former Gators' quarterback was named the MVP of the 2007 BCS National Championship after leading Florida to a convincing 41-14 victory against Ohio State.
Leak, now a TV and radio college football analyst with an eye on a future career as a coach, recently visited with GatorCountry.com to weigh in on the direction of the program under Will Muschamp and the progression of quarterback Jeff Driskel.
Of course, Leak likes what he sees from his alma mater. He believes Muschamp was the perfect hire when his former coach, Urban Meyer, resigned two seasons ago.
"The transition year that the Gators needed after Urban Meyer left was going to be difficult, and I think Will Muschamp was definitely the right guy," Leak said. "A blue-collar, chopping-wood type of disciplinary that this Gator team and the Gator Nation needed. He's hard-nosed and believes in playing great defense.
"I think that's exactly what Florida needed at the right time."
The 27-year-old North Carolina native said Muschamp is a head coach who commands respect from those around him. Discipline on and off of the field was needed to right the ship and that's exactly what Muschamp brought to the table.
Still, Leak did not expect the turnaround to happen this quickly.
"I tell you what, going from 7-6 to (11-2) says a lot about the effect he has on players and obviously about the coaching staff that he has as far as him being a leader for this Gator Nation, so my hat's off to him," Leak said.
While understanding discipline and defense had a lot to do with that turnaround, Leak also credits quarterback Jeff Driskel for performing well as a first-year starter. Sure, Driskel made mistakes along the way, but that's to be expected out of a "young quarterback," he said.
Most of all, Driskel didn't make many mistakes that got his team beat, leading the program to its fifth 11-win season.
"Any time you have a young guy starting at quarterback in his first year, especially in the SEC, there's going to be a growing period," Leak said. "The good thing about him is he's a quarterback that takes care of the football. He continues to improve week in and week out, and that's what you always wants to see as a player, as a coach and as a fan. You want to see your players, especially your quarterback, who is a guy who is going to get a lot of publicity, doing well at improving from week-to-week."
Leak also lauded first-year offensive coordinator Brent Pease for "catering" to his personnel by developing a creative running game behind senior Mike Gillislee. He's certain Pease would have liked to pass the ball more but said the Gators did not have the "weapons in the perimeter" for that to consistently be effective.
Given time this offseason, Leak believes Gators fans will witness less of a one-dimensional offense led by a much-improved Driskel. The biggest jump often occurs between a player's first and second years, which Leak expects to happen heading into Driskel's second season as the starter.
"I think in the future and in time with another offseason to develop the offensive line and the receivers – to develop routes and to get that chemistry will be good because that timing, that chemistry takes so long for quarterbacks and receivers to get," Leak said.
After all, Driskel didn't even start the 2012 season opener at quarterback, which won't be the case in 2013. Before the Sugar Bowl, Muschamp said he wouldn't re-open the quarterback battle during the offseason, cementing Driskel's spot atop of the depth chart.
"These wide receivers didn't know who their quarterback was going to be before the (2012) season, so it takes time to get that chemistry down," Leak said. "To try to do it during the season is very tough, because you have your game plan and you don't have the time to work on routes and work on timing like you would if you had an established quarterback.
"Now they'll have an entire offseason with their established quarterback, so I expect to see a lot of improvement going into next season."
Leak said he tries to visit UF as often as possible. He believes it's the responsibility of former players to give back to the program that gave so much to them as a student and an athlete. He remembers former players like Alex Brown, Rex Grossman and Danny Wuerffel helping mentor him as a college player.
Usually those alumni visits come during the spring, he said. During the season, former players may catch a few games, but the current team is so focused on the task at hand that players don't need too many outside forces offering up tips on how to handle themselves on and off of the field. Plus, with classes, practices, film-room study and road trips for games, little time remains for mentoring sessions.
"Through my career having 50 starts and playing four years, I definitely have some things I can share that may help them," Leak said. "I think one of the great things about Gainesville and the University of Florida is how former players come back to give to the school. Whether it's advice, whether it's time, whether it's money, they always do their part as far as giving back to the athletes and helping them grow, not just as athletes but as student-athletes and as young men.
"I want to do my part by coming back and giving back with anything I can give."
As for Leak, he has stayed close to the game as an analyst on "College Sports Nation," a talk show on Sirius XM satellite radio, Channel 91. He also has been on the CBS Sports Network and runs the Chris Leak Championship Football Academy. While saying he's been "blessed" to have been guided into sports talk because "college football is dear to my heart," Leak has a different career path in mind than simply serving as a former player turned media mouth piece.
"I really think, long-term for me, I'll be a college football head coach somewhere — Maybe Florida, who knows," Leak said with a smile. "I know I have a lot of head coaches out there that I played under and at a lot of special schools just like Charlie Strong at Louisville, Larry Fedora (North Carolina), Urban Meyer (Ohio State), Dan Mullen (Mississippi State) — you go down the line.
"But I tell you what, there would be nothing like going to your alma mater, going to the school you love and the school that you played for, there's nothing that would be more special than that.
"No matter where I end up, I know I will be coaching somewhere on down the road."

The final trailer for "X-Men: Days of Future Past" has debuted, and the clip spotlights the critical role in the narrative played by Hugh Jackman's Wolverine.
"I was sent here for you, from the future," Jackman's Logan says to a younger Charles Xavier, played by James McAvoy.
"Could you give me that one more time please?" the disheveled Xavier asks with a laugh.
Mutant fans can check out the clip promoting the director Bryan Singer's film, which is set to arrive in theaters May 23, below.
Adapted from one of the beloved comic book story lines conceived by Chris Claremont, "X-Men: Days of Future Past" stars actors from Matthew Vaughn's 2011 prequel "X-Men: First Class,"and the original "X-Men" trilogy, which launched in 2000 with Singer's original "X-Men" and arguably ushered in the current golden age of comic book films.
"Future Past's" expansive cast includes McAvoy playing the younger Xavier, with Michael Fassbender and Ian McKellen playing Magneto. Also featured are Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique, Nicholas Hoult as Beast, Page as Kitty Pryde, Ashmore as Iceman, Halle Berry as Storm, Omar Sy as Bishop and Evan Peters as Quicksilver.
"Game of Thrones" star Peter Dinklage joins the ensemble as Bolivar Trask, the mastermind who initially creates the Sentinels, robots who in the future seek to drive mutants into extinction.
In Singer's film, the X-Men ultimately hit upon a plan to prevent the bleak future — by projecting Wolverine's consciousness back in time into the body of his younger self, they hope to unite friends-turned-adversaries Xavier and Magneto and avoid the events that will trigger the dystopia.
In an interview with Hero Complex, Singer pointed out one unlikely inspiration for "X-Men: Days of Future Past": Schrodinger's cat.
"There's a theory about things: Until they're observed, they haven't really quite happened yet … it's called a superposition in quantum mechanics," he explained. "If you put a poison that may or may not release inside a box with a cat, until you observe the result, the cat is both alive and dead at the same time. The outcome hasn't happened yet, so you can muck about in the past, but until you return to observe the future, it doesn't take hold. That's called collapsing the superposition.
"I applied this notion to our story line, and it really helped me create a narrative where both the past and future can coexist at the same time."
Are you excited to see Singer return as a director to the franchise with "X-Men: Days of Future Past"? What do you think of the final trailer?

People may not automatically connect sleep to NBC's reality show The Biggest Loser , but sleep is an increasingly important part of this highly successful show. Since the show's seventh season, sleep studies have been added to the contestants' pre-show medical work-ups, and treatment for those with sleep apnea has been provided, courtesy of Philips Respironics.
The results have been striking. Doctors found that a majority of the contestants had sleep apnea, often severe cases.
In one season, every cast member had a positive sleep apnea diagnosis. Pam Minkley, a sleep technologist from Philips Respironics who works with the cast members, explained, "In the first seasons of the show, the show's doctor talked about the three pillars of health... psychological, healthy eating, and healthy exercise. Now he has added a fourth pillar called 'sleep optimization.'"
The National Sleep Foundation's Sleepmatters magazine spoke with two prior contestants from The Biggest Loser , Sean Algaier and Sherry Johnston, about how receiving treatment for sleep apnea changed their lives.
Sean's Story When Sean Algaier arrived at the Ranch for Season 8 of The Biggest Loser , he was 29 years old and weighed 444 pounds. Sean had been overweight since high school. In his home, he found comfort in food, and exercise was a form of punishment. Sean didn't know that he had sleep apnea before the show, but his wife suspected it.
She would wake up frightened when he gasped for air and stopped breathing in his sleep. Despite these signs, Sean opted not to have a sleep study . Even with health insurance, it would have cost a few hundred dollars, and Sean preferred to spend the money on his family rather than himself. Meanwhile, Sean's friends teased him about constantly falling asleep.
He felt tired so frequently that it became the norm. He could fall asleep five or six times a day, even when he was driving. Sean snored so loudly at night that it affected his marriage.
"For lack of a better description," he said, "we would go to sleep in the same bed, but we would move

Spine and Back Health
Natural Fusion
I had a herniation removed from lumbar 4/5. I developed MRSA in the disc that they removed the hernitation from. The MRSA has removed all the cartilage and the two discs are now bone on bone. I am being told that the disc may naturaly fuse togeather on it`s own. Is this possible?
Hello, thank you for your question. It turns out that cartilage is a very effective barrier to bone growth or bone fusion. If you take away the cartilage (i.e. disc) between two vertebrae, it's actually pretty common for them to just fuse together. I've seen patients who fused all by themselves a while after having a disc infection, so it's definitely possible. I hope you heal up and get better. Good luck.

Voter Intimidation in Pasco Schools? | News
Pasco County, Florida- It's an incident gaining national attention- a volunteer with the Obama campaign is allowed to enter a bay area high school, register students and speak to classes, yet other political groups are denied the same opportunity.
Does this break any laws? Well, that's the question at hand. Posing as a worker with the Supervisor of Elections office is considered to be a crime.
The Republican Party of Pasco County has filed complaints with the State Attorney's Office and the state's Division of Elections. That office is looking into possible voter intimidation.
If there's evidence, the case will be sent to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, and some think what's happened in Pasco is not an isolated incident.
"Politics should not be in the schools," says Carol Lee Schmidt, whose son attends Gulf High School.
She says last month a volunteer from President Obama's campaign, Organizing for America, gained access to her son's school by allegedly posing as a worker with the Supervisor of Elections Office, and her visit was not bi-partisan.
Carol Lee recounts what her son told her, "He said she had Obama stickers all over her clip board- trying to promote to register for Obama."
Carol Lee says the volunteer also made partisan comments about issues such as abortion.
She says, "They were asking her questions: 'Does she approve of abortions?'- she says 'Yes, where Mitt Romney doesn't approve of abortions.'"
Internal school district emails obtained through public records requested by the Republican Party of Pasco County shows principals at two other high schools were under the same impression- that the volunteers registering students to vote worked for the Supervisor of Elections, but they did not.
Carol Lee says, "There should have been equal time. They had somebody representing Obama. They should have someone representing Romney- not one sided."
"I think it's underhanded," says Bill Bunting, the Republican State Committeeman for Pasco County's Republican Party.
Bill says his attempts to speak to students at Gulf High School were canceled twice, once by the principal and the second time by Superintendent Heather Fiorentino.
"These kids are impressionable. They're (Obama supporters) are getting in, and they can swing an election...that's what's important to us," says Bill.
The following statement was released by the Organizing for America group:
"This incident represents a simple misunderstanding regarding a volunteer who is no longer with our organization. All of our volunteers go through a rigorous and extensive training process to ensure they comply with all laws when registering voters. A month ago, immediately after the incident in question, the volunteer apologized to the school. As the Pasco County School Superintendent has indicated in the press, the school has moved on from this and so have we," said Obama for America-Florida Spokesman Eric Jotkoff.
Carol Lee says, "To me, it was under false pretenses. They should not have been there in the first place."
The district does not allow partisan speakers in the classroom and that's why the Republican representative was not allowed to speak at Gulf High School.
Neither Pasco's School Superintendent nor any other school district official would go on camera, but they say this is an active investigation- one they hope to resolve soon.

Clarkson's Horizon Programs Introduce Girls To Career Possibilities In Science, Engineering And Technical Fields
[A photograph for newspaper use is available at http://www.clarkson.edu/news/photos/horizons2004.jpg]
Although women constitute nearly half of the American labor force, they make up a much smaller percentage of the nation's lucrative jobs in science, engineering and technology.
And according to a 2001 report on women in science and technology published by the National Council for Research on Women, while women and girls have made progress in the sciences over the last two decades, gains have stalled – and in some cases eroded – in engineering and computer-related fields.
Clarkson University hopes to help reverse this trend and remedy the imbalance by getting more middle-school-age girls interested in science and technology careers through the summer Horizon programs.
"Studies show that women have an aptitude equal to men in science and mathematics, yet few girls choose to pursue careers in these areas," said Program Director Bobbi Laird, a school psychologist and educational specialist. "Horizons are intensive residential programs designed to encourage and inspire girls at an important time in their lives, just as they begin to think seriously about identity, higher education and career pursuits. We offer them role models and empower them to see options where before they may have seen limitations."
Clarkson created the Horizon programs 18 years ago. Since then, more than 200 girls each summer are introduced to the excitement of science, math, engineering and technology through hands-on activities and team projects – from building working robots to mixing up magic in the laboratory.
Each year, Horizon I invites participating schools around New York state to nominate two girls enrolled in seventh grade who display an aptitude and strong interest in science and math. The program features an integrated curriculum, which includes science, mathematics and computer science, as well as workshops in career opportunities, personal development and leadership training. Theme and project-based activities provide entertaining, hands-on opportunities for understanding and reinforcing important scientific concepts.
Students learn about wetlands biology in the "Stomp in the Swamp" excursion and participate in an interactive chemical magic show, among other activities. The program culminates in a poster presentation of research projects.
Upon successful completion of the first-year weeklong program, students may apply to return the next year for Horizon II, a second week of exciting activities. The program features interactive projects in engineering, environmental analysis and robotics, along with further explorations of career opportunities, personal development, and leadership training.
"I came for Horizons I last year and really loved it," said Emily Morrison, a rising ninth grade student at Ogdensburg Free Academy in Ogdensburg, who returned this week for the Horizons II program. "The friends I made last summer are back again this year and I am having a great week. The program is more challenging this year, but still a lot of fun. I really like the robotics class."
Jaymie Merry, a student from Willink Middle School in Rochester, N.Y. also returned for a second week this summer. "It has been really great to meet other girls interested in some of the same things I am. Most of my friends back home are not as science- or tech-oriented as I am. I am interested in engineering and robotics but until I came to Horizons I didn't really know what kinds of jobs there are in these fields. "
In the end, according to Horizon Director Laird, the young women gain an understanding that "engineers are dynamic leaders and innovative, critical-thinking problem-solvers who enjoy exploring new things and want to help people."
The Horizon programs are sponsored by Clarkson's Pipeline Programs and Academic Success (PPAS) office that offers a continuum of programming from pre-college through graduate school to provide academic, cultural and social support for a wide range of under-represented students in science, mathematics, engineering and technology.
Clarkson University, located in Potsdam, New York, is an independent university with a reputation for developing innovative leaders in technology-based fields. Its academically rigorous, collaborative culture involves 2,700 undergraduates and 350 graduate students in hands-on team projects, multidisciplinary research, and real-world challenges. Many faculty members achieve international recognition for their scholarship and research, and teaching is a priority at every level. For more information, visit http://www.clarkson.edu.PHOTO CAPTION: New York State middle school girls cheer on the robot they designed and programmed for a robotics competition held recently at Clarkson University. The design project and competition was part of Clarkson University's residential Horizon programs, which each summer introduce more than 200 girls to the excitement of science, math, engineering and technology through hands-on activities and team projects.

Throwback Shade: See These Insulting Tweets Celebrities Said About Their Peers Before They Were Famous
- By Bossip Staff

Celebrities Sent Insulting Tweets Before They Were Famous
Be careful what you tweet…or it might come back to bite you. The folks at Baller Status deserve a Pulitzer or something for digging up these tweets. The've managed to find tweets from rappers and celebrities from before they were famous…and more willing to be candid. And boy are they interesting. You see a lot of people throwing shade on celebrities they consider peers now.
There's Wale throwing shade at Ross. Wiz throwing shade at Amber. Frank Ocean throwing shade at Nicki. It's all crazy. These tweets are going to create some awkwardness from now on. Yikes.

Kazenga LuaLua has been told not to waste his chance with Albion.
Boss Gus Poyet has issued the warning after watching LuaLua under- perform for the development team in Monday's 4-1 defeat by Swansea at The Amex.
It was his first appearance since a jury at Newcastle Crown Court failed to agree a verdict and was discharged after the winger had been accused of affray.
Poyet said: "He trained well after Monday. I would prefer not to make any comment on Monday's performance by Kazenga but he trained very well on Tuesday and Wednesday.
"He probably knows himself how he performed on Monday, because there was a real change in attitude and belief on Tuesday morning, which is quite strange.
"In football nowadays if you play 90 minutes one day it looks like for the next two days you are dying, you need to rest because your body is exhausted, but Kazenga was not exhausted on Tuesday morning. He trained very, very well, which is very pleasing for the manager.
"He hasn't been performing well in terms of quality in training, so maybe he was affected by it, this personal situation, and now that apparently it's gone we'll see. It's up to him."
LuaLua, 22 next Monday and under contract until June 2014, has made only two starts this season and not featured at all in 12 of Albion's 20 Championship matches.
Poyet said: "There is not one player that has been fantastic in training and fantastic on Saturday afternoon who doesn't play the next Saturday and if somebody thinks differently he is lying to himself, so it's up to him.
"I hope that he realises what he has got at the moment, because I don't think there is a better situation for Kazenga to be in in terms of having the chance to play for this football club, the way we want him to play, having the kind of life he's got. I hope he doesn't lose this big opportunity to be part of the future."
Seats for Albion's FA Cup third round clash against LuaLua's former club Newcastle at The Amex on January 5 (12.30) went on sale last night to season ticket holders.
The home game against Hull on February 9 will be screened live on Sky Sports and is now a 5.20pm kick-off.

Smokes for Dad!
Have a carton of smokes! Or two. Or three... or four...?
Times sure have changed, haven't they? I can't believe how absurd this looks from our modern day perspective. I've actually been on the planet long enough that (had my parents been smokers) I'd have considered this perfectly acceptable as a kid. In fact, a great gift idea! I certainly witnessed plenty of little kids buying cigarettes back in the 70's with no more than a "they're for my dad."
But this ad is beyond hilarious. Even Scraps, the dog is getting in on the act. I get the feeling this guy's family is hoping to cash in his life insurance policy - and soon! "Here dad, smoke your brains out. Mom's got State Farm on speed dial."
Its summer... I'm feeling lazy... and I love old cigarette ads. This week we'll dig out another batch and enjoy a chuckle or two.

Hah... yeah, exactly, Huw. The show "Madmen" does such a good job casually throwing in all these amazing 50's "normal behaviour" motifs like rampant smoking, lunch hour drinking and no seatbelts EVER. One that we've been chuckling about is a scene where the family is enjoying a picnic... and then shakes out their blanket and walks away, leaving all their trash on the grass! Times have certainly changed. ;^)ReplyDelete
Leif: What an outstanding post. Over and over again, illustrations of such breath-taking intimacy and warmth, so beautifully done; all to sell a cancerous, death-dealing product.

Poster of the Day: Tank Abbott Returns on 4/13 With KOTC Superfight Title Match Against Warpath Villareal
(Let's all have a moment of silence for the career of Trevor Prangley. / Props: King of the Cage via MiddleEasy)
Before Tank Abbott re-enters the UFC and takes the heavyweight strap back from these pussy-ass point-fighters, his latest comeback will begin with a tune-up fight against guyliner-clad palooka Ruben "Warpath" Villareal, who has lost eight of his last ten fights. The match will go down April 13th at King of the Cage: Fighting Legends, at Gold Country Casino in Oroville, California.
According to a KOTC press release published last week, Tank Abbott is "the world's most famous cage fighter" (!!!), and his fight against Warpath will be for the King of the Cage Superfight title, whatever the hell that means. And of course, Abbott's second-career as a novelist also gets a plug:
"[Abbott] recently took a few years off to write a 300,000 word trilogy about the origins of cage fighting entitled "Befor There Were Rules" with the first novel, "Bar Brawler", now available for purchase as a paperback or digital download from Amazon.com."
I think it's really cool of KOTC to keep the misspelling of "Befor," so as not to embarrass or confuse Tank. Anyway, there's a little video profile on Tank after the jump hyping the 4/13 fight. Check it out if you want, but just keep in mind that his fascinating toupee is still in hiding.Read More DIGG THIS

Wii U is "good, but it's not great", says Molyneux
Peter Molyneux seems a little disappointed in what he's seen of the Wii U so far.
The legendary designer and 22 Cans co-founder told GamesIndustry he likes the Wii U, but isn't blown away by it.
"I think the Wii U is good, but I don't feel it's great," he said.
"I find holding the device in my hand – looking up at the screen and looking down at the device – slightly confusing as a consumer."
Molyneux said he'd enjoyed the games he'd played so far but repeated that they were "not great".
"And we really need these new pieces of hardware to be great in today's world, because the competition is not just consoles anymore," he said.
"The competition is everything, all the technology. When you're holding a Kindle Fire or an iPad in your hand, it's just amazing technology. It really is. It's expensive, but it's amazing technology. And people like Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft need to match that. They need to match that in my mind, and exceed it. And I'm not sure the Wii U really did that."
Molyneux isn't the first to air doubts regarding the console's capacity to wow consumers; Gamasutra noted that new devices really need to "sing" straight out of the box. But the 22 Cans creative lead isn't ready to give up on the Big N just yet – it's surprised us all before.
"I can remember everybody in the industry laughing and giggling about how stupid the Wii was, what a stupid name it was, and who would want motion control," he noted.
"And then it went on to sell what, 60, 70 million copies? It got people who never considered computer games to play them."

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The U.S. Justice Department has told Congress the deadline has passed for Bush administration attorneys who wrote the so-called "torture memos" to respond to a crucial internal investigation of the lawyers' performance.
John Yoo is among ex-Bush administration lawyers given a chance to respond to the Justice Department probe.
But the department late Monday hedged on making the nearly completed investigation report public.
Sources familiar with the much-anticipated report by the Justice Department's ethics unit, known as the Office of Professional Responsibility, said it is sharply critical of the authors of the controversial policies.
Bush administration lawyers, including Jay Bybee, John Yoo and Steven Bradbury, had been given an opportunity to respond.
In a letter to key congressional leaders, the Justice Department said the attorneys under investigation had until Monday to respond to the report's findings.
The letter did not say whether the lawyers responded to the internal investigation.
The lengthy investigation has focused on whether the legal advice regarding interrogation techniques was consistent with the professional standards that apply to Justice Department attorneys. The investigation also will determine whether any findings of misconduct should be forwarded to the respective state bar disciplinary authorities for possible sanctions, which could include disbarment.
The letter from Assistant Attorney General Ronald Weich, who reports to Attorney General Eric Holder and his deputy, David Ogden, said the final report with any responses now will go to Holder and Ogden.
"After any additional review they deem appropriate, the department will determine what disclosures should be made," the letter said.
Weich told Rep. John Conyers, D-Michigan, and Sens. Richard Durbin, D-Illinois, and Sheldon Whitehouse, D-Rhode Island, the Justice Department "will be mindful of the considerable interest that Congress has previously expressed in connection with this matter."
But the communication stopped short of a promise to make the report's findings public despite suggestions from then-Attorney General Michael Mukasey it would be released publicly.
"While we appreciate your request for a disclosure commitment, we can only fully evaluate the scope of appropriate disclosures once the review process is completed," the letter said.
If the report is made public as Democratic lawmakers demand, it is certain to play a role in decisions such as whether to seek prosecutions of the former Justice Department officials, whether to appoint an outside counsel to explore criminal charges, whether to establish a so-called congressionally mandated truth commission and whether to call for more Capitol Hill hearings.

Got this installed on my 2006 coupe after the intake, plenum spacer, headers, and straight test pipes into the stock catback. Car is a different ride! The power is nicely linear and I picked up 4mpg compared to my untuned ecru with the mods. Higher redline, no 0-60 training wheels, and all smiles here.

ObamaCare's Silver Plan is a type of Metal Plan on the Health Insurance Marketplace. Silver Plans qualify for both Tax Credits and Cost Sharing subsidies.Silver Plans have lower out-of-pocket costs than Bronze Plans but higher out- of-pocket costs than both Gold and Platinum Plans. All Silver Plans share the same minimum health benefits, but the way they charge out-of-pocket costs can differ significantly.
The fundamental difference among the new Obamacare health plans is the percentage of covered medical costs paid by the health plan. The Silver Plan pays 70% of covered medical costs for a typical enrollee. Silver Plans are also the only metal plans which offer cost-sharing reduction (CSR) versions to consumers that require financial assistance for out-of-pocket costs.
The monthly premium for a Silver Plan depends on the insurer from whom you purchase the plan, the number of people to be insured by the plan, your age, whether you smoke, and the region in which you live. You can use HealthPocket's comparison tool to compare Silver Plan premiums in your area.
The Open Enrollment period for the 2018 Affordable Care Act health plans begins November 1, 2017 and ends December 15, 2017. See our Open Enrollment article for more information.
HealthPocket is a free information source designed to help consumers find medical coverage. Whether you are looking for Medicare, Medicaid or an individual health insurance plan, we will help you find the right healthcare option and save on your out of pocket healthcare costs. We receive our data from government, non-profit and private sources, and you should confirm key provisions of your coverage with your selected health plan.

Give yo ass some pretty wings

Arm less sergeant salute me

Off the head like a noogie and my life's like a movie
Play your role while I roll another doobie

Look in my eyes, never lie boy I'm on my toes

Top notch on my hand, I'll be such 'till its over

So if I say I'm cold then that's an antonym
You can't stand it huh?

Uh, yo yo

And so a syllable is like a sex between the sheet
And you can buy your vowel if you show 'em the receipt

My futures so bright you can see it in the dark
With the blindfold on the hindsight of a blind dude

Disneyland Park
Kids, Tweens, Adults
Slow Rides, Dark, Loud, Scary
Accessibility and Other Information - Opens Dialog
1955 Original Ride, Indoor
Zig and zag in a motorcar during a manic drive through the English countryside.
Driven mad by his first automobile, Mr. Toad embarks on an uproarious trip toward "nowhere in particular"... and you're invited! Recreating the frenzied journey of J. Thaddeus Toad, Esq. from the Wind in the Willows segment of the animated film The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride is a frantic flight through the English countryside the whole family is sure to love.
Hold On! Stroll through a well-manicured garden into a lavish manor known to all as Toad Hall. Hop inside a 2-person, open-air buggy and begin your wild drive by zooming beneath the vaulted ceiling of the main parlor, the cheerful song "Merrily On Our Way" playing overhead. Skid past teetering stacks of books in a library and barrel through a fireplace before hurtling wildly into a formal dining room, dishes rattling and glass crackling. Then, careen through a wall-sized window and race past a riverbank narrowly missing a sheep herder and his flock.
That's when the motor mayhem really begins! While avoiding a platoon of pursuing policemen, you'll crash through scaffolding, splatter a stack of pies, smash crates and even ignite a fiery explosion. But when you're caught and sentenced for your runaway crimes, it looks as if the jig is up. Will you escape your punishment? Or is something even more dire waiting for you down the road?
Mr. Toad's Wild Ride was an Opening Day Attraction at Disneyland. In 1983, the original façade was updated to include the stately Toad Hall; inside, various scenes and settings were recreated with more detail and special effects. Today, this attraction is unique to Disneyland Park.
Mr. Toad's Wild Ride may close intermittently to accommodate fireworks performances and will reopen approximately 20 to 30 minutes after the show has concluded.

SEATTLE (AP) — The FBI is confirming that the lethal poison ricin was on a letter sent to Fairchild Air Force Base in Washington state earlier this month.
Authorities had said Thursday that three ricin-tainted, hand-addressed letters postmarked May 13 in Spokane were mailed to President Barack Obama, a federal judge in Spokane and a post office in that city.
The FBI had said a fourth letter that was also postmarked May 13 in Spokane and sent to the nearby Air Force base was being analyzed. Agency spokeswoman Ayn Dietrich said Friday that testing shows there was ricin on that mailing.
A 37-year-old man accused of sending one of the letters, containing ricin and a death threat to U.S. District Judge Fred Van Sickle, was arrested May 22. Matthew Ryan Buquet was charged last week with one count of mailing a threatening communication. He pleaded not guilty and is being held without bail in Spokane.

Your move, Batman!
"Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?"
Oh it's on! Joseph Gordon-Levitt has been confirmed to be in the next installment of the Batman saga currently titled "The Dark Knight Rises". Which character he will play has yet to be released but if I know my Batman trivia, which I think I do, I assume he'll be playing the role of King Tut. Google it, trust me it's funny.
Jodi Foster will step behind the camera for a new sci-fi flick that she's developing. No real details on the movie but apparently it'll have a nice warm family feel to it. So maybe something like "ET 2". The world demands it!
"The Seventh Son" has added Julianne Moore to its cast list which already includes Jeff Bridges. Moore will play the most bad ass of all witches who uses blood magic, whatever the hell that is. This is funny because I've always assumed Julianne Moore was a witch in real life because she looks exactly the same as she did 20 years ago. In days of old she would have been burned at the stake for being in her 50's and still being pretty hot.
Everyone and their mother has joined the cast of "Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters 3D" including Derek Mears who you might remember as Jason from the "Friday the 13th" remake. Fans of the "MacGruber" movie may also recognize him as "Large Henchman" which I believe got him an Oscar nomination.
As Andy Williams once sang, "It's the most wonderful time of the year"! Sure, he was talking about a different holiday, but I think you'll all agree with me that the statement is just as fitting for Halloween! It's a time to get spooky, a time to get scary.
We try to control our collective nerdgasms over "The Dark Knight", and frankly we didn't do so well.
