The following is a compendium of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer-related authorized Library of Congress subject headings from the LC Authorities. This list is important to me professionally as a cataloger and librarian, as well as personally as a gay man. The language we use to catalog and classify our literature and media matters, and incorrect or outdated language can create access barriers to those resources, so it is critical that we study and are familiar with these headings. This compendium is hopefully a step in that direction. There are 875 unique terms altogether, so rather than present them all on one infinitely scrolling page, I have broken them out into the following fourteen categories: For this compendium, I chose to focus chiefly on Demographic Group and Genre/Form terms that are related to people and culture of the wider LGBT community. For the sake of brevity, I decided not to include the names of persons, organizations, events, places, and titles—an entire list could be devoted to those headings alone. The associated metadata is taken from the 150, 4XX, 5XX, and 667-68X MARC fields. For non-catalogers, below is a key to the numbers. In short, the 4XX fields record subject links to terms that are “unauthorized” by Library of Congress — vernacular expressions or old headings that have since been revised, but that still point users to the “authorized” headings. Similarly, 5XX terms point users to related “authorized” subjects or concepts. 430: Tracing for a uniform title see from reference.

Currently, the majority of Britain's energy is generated from burning fossil fuels. Coal accounts for 28 percent, while 48 percent is obtained via natural gas. Nuclear power stations generate around 16 percent, but they too are being retired by 2023 as the government looks to invest in safer and more reliable forms of nuclear energy. "We are tackling a legacy of underinvestment and ageing power stations which we need to replace with alternatives that are reliable, good value for money, and help to reduce our emissions," says Rudd. "It cannot be satisfactory for an advanced economy like the UK to be relying on polluting, carbon intensive 50-year-old coal-fired power stations." By cutting carbon emissions and investing in "a new energy infrastructure, fit for the 21st century," the government hopes to increase its reliance on renewable fuel sources like wind, wave, hydro, biomass and solar. This would help it reach the EU Renewable Energy Directive, which mandates that the UK generates at least 30 percent of its electricity from renewable sources by 2020. Although the government is no longer providing subsidies for onshore wind farms, private energy companies are still investing heavily in UK renewable energy projects. In the last month, Denmark's largest energy company, Dong, and Norway's Statoil announced they would build the world's largest offshore and floating wind farms respectively.

Apr 30, 2017- Swiss climber Ueli Steck, more popularly known as "Swiss Machine", died on Sunday in an accident near Camp II on Mount Everest, making it the first death of the season in the Everest. The 40-year-old renowned climber was in an acclimatising process to make an attempt on the mountain when he fell into a crevasse and died on the spot, police said. Chief of Himalayan Rescue Association in base camp Lakpa Nurbu Sherpa said the climber headed towards Mount Nuptse when he had to head towards Camp III. His body has been flown to Kathmandu. The climber had reached the summit of Everest on 2012 without oxygen and in 2015 climbed all 82 Alpine peaks over 4,000 meters in 62 days. Steck and his fellow climber, in 2013, was involved in an altercation with Sherpas when the pair ignored Sherpas orders to hold their climb and triggered an icefall which hit the Sherpas fixing ropes.

The Ukrainian military has occupied the city of Kramatorsk after an assault, local self-defense has said. Hospitals are “overcrowded with injured,” activists say, claiming that 10 people died in fighting overnight and two were “killed by snipers.” Anti-government activist, Ilya Dolzhnitsky, told RT that only the central square remained under the control of the self-defense forces by Saturday afternoon, gathered in and around the city council building, the self-defense HQ member said. At least two people were “shot dead by snipers” during the street battles in Kramatorsk on Saturday, the activist also told Rossiya-24. Ten people had been reportedly killed during the storming of the city overnight, according to self-defense. “The hospitals are literally filled up, they are receiving a lot of injured, some of those injured are sent from Kramatorsk to Slavyansk,” Dolzhnitsky said, adding that the locals have been bringing medicines to checkpoints as all the drug stores in the city are closed. В центре города пока все тихо-мирно. У исполкома pic.twitter.com/k7Ds0WVB92 — Федор Иваница (@FedIvanica) May 3, 2014 Security forces “shoot at everyone, including civilians,” the activist claimed. Self-defense think the military intends to cut them off to “start the operation in Slavyansk overnight,” according to Interfax. Every road in and out of Kramatorsk blocked off pic.twitter.com/bmR2leDEux — GrahamWPhillips (@GrahamWP_UK) May 3, 2014 Soon after the city's TV center came under control of the military, the broadcast of Ukrainian channels was restored. Due to the ongoing operation, city markets, parks, and some supermarkets remain closed, while transport has ground to a halt. Via Facebook, the coup-imposed Ukrainian Interior Minister Arsen Avakov asked local residents to stay indoors. The Ukrainian troops' assault on Kramatorsk started Friday and continued overnight into Saturday, with the Ukrainian security forces moving forward despite resistance from self-defense squads. Snipers who are controlled by the Kiev government occupied multi-storey buildings and have been firing from there, an unnamed source in the Donbass self-defense HQ told Interfax news agency. He added that the fighting was going on on the city streets, with different kinds of weapons used. The source also claimed there were dead in the fighting, “most of them civilians who happened to be next to the location where the fighting is now on.” Unconfirmed reports also claimed that armed units of the radical Right Sector group are committing atrocities in Kramatorsk. Right Sector leader, Dmitry Yarosh, has allegedly arrived to the city. Uncertified but local tells me he heard #RightSector putting people on knees and shooting in back of head at #Kramatorsk — PaulaSlier_RT (@PaulaSlier_RT) May 3, 2014 Avakov earlier warned that the special military operation in Kramatorsk would resume on Saturday morning. “The active phase of the operation will continue at sunrise,” Avakov said on his Facebook page. “We are not going to stop.” The storming of Kramatorsk is part of a wider military operation in eastern Ukraine, which intensified on Friday morning when Ukrainian troops attacked the anti-government stronghold of Slavyansk. The city was surrounded by the military with dozens of APCs and 20 helicopters engaged in the operation. The fighting reportedly resulted in three casualties. Two helicopter pilots have died, according to Ukrainian military officials, while self-defense forces in Slavyansk said that one of their members was killed. Also on Friday, clashes in Odessa between supporters of the authorities in Kiev and anti-government protesters turned deadly and claimed the lives of 46 people. About 200 people were injured. Much of the casualties were a result of a fire in the House of Trade Unions. Regional council member and Odessa mayoral candidate Alexey Albu, who was in the building but managed to escape, told RT that anti-government protesters barricaded themselves inside the House of Trade Unions, which was set ablaze by pro-Kiev radicals.

BUDAPEST (Reuters) - A divide within Hungary’s leftist opposition has deepened after leaders of its two biggest parties clashed over who would challenge Prime Minister Viktor Orban in next year’s election. Former Hungarian Prime Minister Gordon Bajnai speaks during a recent Reuters interview in Budapest, February 28, 2013. REUTERS/Laszlo Balogh Orban’s conservative party Fidesz is leading in opinion polls but about half of Hungarian voters are undecided and the economy is barely growing after a recession last year. Late on Friday, talks between the Socialist Party and former Prime Minister Gordon Bajnai’s breakaway leftist party Egyutt 2014 stalled after their leaders proposed different methods for choosing a joint leftist candidate for the premiership. Senior Egyutt 2014 figure Viktor Szigetvari said on Saturday he expected the negotiations with the Socialists to continue. “There is no need for a suspension or break-up of talks ... and there is no intention of that on our side,” Szigetvari wrote in a reply to questions from Reuters. Attila Mesterhazy, chairman of the Socialist Party which evolved from the communists who ruled Hungary from 1956 to 1989, is competing for the leadership against Bajnai, who from 2009 to 2010 was part of a government that introduced painful spending cuts to put the economy back on a sustainable path. On Friday, in an attempt to resolve the deadlock, Bajnai proposed the two men conduct brief campaigns followed by a televised debate. Hungary’s main polling institutes would then ask voters who was the better candidate. He said the Socialists should present candidates in 71 of Hungary’s 106 parliamentary constituencies and his own party would field 35. Mesterhazy called Bajnai’s proposal an unexpected ultimatum and responded with a proposal for the two parties to hold primaries in all the constituencies and to decide who would stand for the premiership. Szigetvari said any other method than an opinion poll would be too expensive, time-consuming and potentially damaging to the opposition, but they would study the Socialist proposal. The tension has dimmed prospects for a strong alliance that can unseat Orban, said Peter Kreko, political analyst at think tank Political Capital. “Anti-government voters can consider this opposition totally incompetent. How can these people govern the country if they are unable to make any compromise on the nomination?”, he said.

Changes – neilhayeswrites Skip to content neilhayeswrites Fiction & Nonfiction ☰ Menu Home (Latest) Fiction Nonfiction Photos About Contact Changes Posted on August 11, 2019 by neilhayeswrites I haven’t posted anything in quite some time and now I have decided to get back to it. There are various reasons why but the main one was certainly time. It was just taking too much of my time to post and promote my blog and I found that there was less time for the actual writing. So I decided to take a break and with a step back came a new perspective. I haven’t stopped writing, it’s just all in my notebooks and for my eyes only, up until now anyway. I also decided that major changes needed to happen in my life, for my own wellbeing as well as for those closest to me. It became apparent to me that I needed to repurpose and reprioritise my days and my life as a whole. I have done this through various means, some have been successful and are still a part of my life and some have fallen by the wayside. But all have been valuable experiences which I may return to one day, who knows? It all started with running, that was over a year ago now and I am still going. Slowly getting faster, going further, feeling better and stronger. That was to be the start of my physical improvement and help mentally too, it feels good to be out there in nature getting plenty of fresh air and even better to be able to chase my kids around. But I was still stressed and anxious, some days were worse than others but something just wasn’t right. So I decided to make changes, do some of the things that I had read about and listened to people discussing. Once you hear several people recommending the same ideas it is perhaps time to listen. Before I go into it all I would like to thank two people who I would credit with inspiring me on this journey. First of all Dr. Rangan Chatterjee, who is a British doctor and television personality, and I can’t recommend his books and podcast enough. You should read The 4 Pillar Plan and The Stress Solution, they both contain so much wisdom and I still find them enjoyable just to look at, leave alone read. I have taken several ideas from both books and included them in my daily routine. If you have a bad back do the exercises in the first book, if I wasn’t an atheist I would believe in miracles. Seriously I have had a bad back for 20 years and it disappeared after 2 weeks! The second person is Mr. Rich Roll, an American athlete and wellness influencer, whose personal story in the book Finding Ultra and even more importantly his podcasts have proved incredibly inspiring and influential to me. It is so easy to find inspiration in the modern world we live in, you just have to open your eyes and look. The biggest change I made was firstly to give myself the time to do some of the things I wanted. I was always guilty of thinking there just weren’t enough hours in the day. How could I possibly find more time? I did it in a very simple way, I started getting up earlier. This concept was always slightly scary to me, I already got up at 6am every day. But I started getting up at 5 am to allow myself more me time before the rest of my household awoke. Once I realised that this was achievable by simply going to bed earlier and not wasting time in the evening watching television or YouTube then it wasn’t that difficult. I would say though that you need the agreement of your partner, he or she needs to be going to bed early too or you won’t sleep properly. So what is my morning routine? It consists of stretching and light exercise, glute exercises for my back, journalling, meditation, pranameyic breathing, an affirmation and away I go. Sounds like a lot, doesn’t it? But all in all it takes around 75 minutes, then I am in the shower, have breakfast and after 2 hours I am awake, alert and ready to start the working day. There are many parts to this routine and they all work together but the most important, and the one I never miss, is my journalling or Morning Pages. That last phrase comes from the author Julia Cameron and her book The Artist’s Way. This is not a diary, it is free form writing where you just let your thoughts flow onto the page. You can also have particular ideas which you would like to explore but you think about them on the page. I find it a wonderful way to start my day, it slows the mind and allows you to really think things through, you can only write so quickly after all. As I said, this is the one morning practice which I never miss. Normally I would write 3 A4 pages but if there is some reason where time is a problem, when I am on holiday for instance, I will shorten my writing. But I will always do at least a page. I have been doing this every day for more than 150 days now and I have only had to change my routine on a handful of occasions. All of these things add up to making a calm and purposeful start to the day and they have improved my levels of stress and anxiety immensely. Some people might still claim that I am a grumpy bugger, and they would be right, but I certainly feel better and that has to transfer to others too. I am a work in progress, it hasn’t even been a year and there were 47 years before that of totally different behaviour and routines to make up for! Then that brings me to the latest change, I have stopped drinking alcohol. It started with a 28 day challenge and when that finished I felt good and not especially like starting to drink again, so I haven’t. I am not saying I have given up forever but I have done these types of challenges before and I was dying for a drink by the end of them. But this time it felt different, I finished the challenge with a shrug of the shoulders and haven’t really been tempted. Again there was a book involved, The 28 Day Alcohol-Free Challenge by Andy Ramage and Ruari Fairbairns. Reading this book whilst doing the challenge seemed to help convert a short term change into a long term lifestyle decision. I never drank that much, just Fridays and Saturdays, a few beers and maybe a whiskey, but I feel so much better with none in my life. No more fuzzy head on the weekend mornings, less grumpiness, more energy and I am ready to get up and get out there with my family. Perhaps there will be more changes to come, I am sure I will read more books, listen to more podcasts and try new things. Some of them may work and replace things that do not but I will certainly be keeping the things that still work for me. As I said, I am still a work in progress, as are we all. © Neil Hayes and neilsworldofenglish Share this: Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Like this: Like Loading...

Then, I could talk to Grandma and she and I could carry on conversations built upon the memories of the past, places we had been, family gatherings we remembered, and could spoke of our passion to love as only a Grandmother and Grandson could! Elsie Mae Jenkins turns 86 today! She never wrote a book, or owned a business. She never lived in a large house, or had lots of money. Her name isn’t found on Google, she has never had an email address, or a Skype Account. Elsie Mae Jenkins has lived in the same city all her life, in the middle of North Carolina! Yet, I named my daughter after her – Isabella Mae. You see she changed my life. I don’t call her Elsie Mae, I call her grandma! Grandma, I know you aren’t listening today, but I want the world to know how much I Love You! Thank you for praying for me every day and changing my destiny! I will always be your #1! Today, somebody that changed your world, tell them how much you love them, you may be the only one to tell them! She turned 92 in January 2019 and I can’t believe it! I still remember her playing in the yard with me. She seemingly was always cooking for an army with just a gentle touch and measurements from a pinch or a dash. She drove her car with the speed of Dale Earnhardt Jr. Her cute and playful smile will go down as one of my forever memories, and I will always feel her sweet hands holding my cheeks with a warm, “I Love You Danny!” Christmas at her house, was special; but everyday was special at her house. She made a trip to the grocery store seem as if I had hit the jackpot with a bottle of my favorite soda – Cheerwine and Peppermint Patty from the candy aisle. For lunch, we would find our way to a one of a few favorite little North Carolina BBQ joints, there is nothing like it, and I had the best date all the way until the day I married Jen! Sunday dinner at her house was a College course in smells, taste, and food that I have long forgotten how to make – but manage to remember the order in which all sat. I learned how to wash dishes there on Bedford Dr., I must admit – dishes have never been that fun anywhere else. There are a few things that I remember around her house. A writing desk that my mom and grandpa made together. An old Mountain Dew bottle – with a cartoon figure akin to Yosemite Sam as the logo. There is the knife holder on the side of the cupboard, with several of Grandpa’s homemade knives, I used to stare at them, hoping to one day use them myself. There is the picture of the mountain lodge that she used to go to with my Aunts and Uncles, the place she always found peace and rest. I remember the family photos, the trinkets from a time long ago past, the cards and well wishes from folks from her church, her plant, family and friends the she had touched with gentle love and kindness. The one thing I remember most is her copy of the Living Bible that she read everyday. Every morning before the bacon would hit the skillet, before the cup of Cheerwine was first poured. Before the rest of us had even opened the door of our rooms, much less our eyes, she had already read of the goodness of her Heavenly Father. She knew the promises to stand on, to count on, and she could tell you how to make things right when everything was caving in around. Grandma loves Jesus! She doesn’t remember a whole lot anymore. The phone calls are lacking of fruitful thought and memories. I don’t know if she prays like she used to, even if she can recall her favorite memory verses. But I know deep down inside is a little girl that loves her heavenly Father and longs to be in His presence. I have to admit, I will cry like I did the day mom died, I’ll be a wreck on the day she goes to see Jesus. But this I know for sure – she won’t be wreck! She will be so happy and dancing and full of Joy! She will be with Grandpa and Memaw and Papaw. She’ll see her siblings and cousins and family that went before. She see my her daughter, my mom – and have a long loving embrace. But I know you Grandma, you will want to get to the lap of Jesus who you loved so much and were just like him! Until that day comes Grandma, I know that you reflect your Savior every day! You love like He does, you care like He does, and you serve like He does! You are such an earthly example of how to be like Him! So today, as you prepare to meet Jesus… I know I can’t hug you or celebrate with you, but I ask Jesus to speak peace to you. I pray that the love He has for you will be so real and so powerful that you know. That your dreams soon take you to a place that bring a smile to your sleep filled body. I pray that the presence of the Holy Spirit will comfort you and take away the discomfort that old age has brought on you. I pray that tomorrow when you wake up you will sense, feel, and know how much your daughters, your grandsons, your family and friends love you so much! But you will be in the arms of your loving Savior! Grandma, I want to you know that I will always love you and be forever honored to be your #1 Grandson! Love You Grandma Elsie!

In the late 1970s, writer Peter J (or 'PJ') Hammond was recruited by Thames Television to create a new series, a fantasy story for children that bore the working title of The Time Menders. Hammond's project - later rejected by Thames and subsequently picked up by ATV (Associated Television) - eventually developed far beyond this original notion, becoming Sapphire & Steel - a television classic that remains one of the most bizarre, imaginative shows to have hit the airwaves. Sapphire & Steel: Originally broadcast from July 10 1979 to August 31 1982 "All irregularities will be handled by the forces controlling each dimension. Transuranic heavy elements may not be used where there is life. Medium atomic weights are available: Gold, Lead, Copper, Jet, Diamond, Radium, Sapphire, Silver and Steel. Sapphire and Steel have been assigned." Hammond's show followed the exploits of Sapphire (Joanna Lumley) and Steel (David McCallum), a pair of mysterious operatives who appeared at various points in history to fix problems in time. Their origins remain a mystery throughout the 34 produced episodes, which are divided into six 'assignments'. ITV It's probably fair to say that Sapphire & Steel relies more heavily on atmosphere than plot. Frequently, the viewer is offered only a garbled explanation as to what exactly has gone wrong with time. In the first episode, Lumley delivers the following mouthful while straining to explain the threat they face... "There is a corridor, and that corridor is time. It surrounds all things and it passes through all things. You can't see it - only sometimes and it's dangerous. You cannot enter into time, but sometimes time can try to enter the present." - You'd be forgiven for feeling more than little confused. Yes, the plots are often baffling, but where Sapphire & Steel absolutely thrives is in its mood and ambience. It's difficult to believe that this creepy, moody show was ever intended for younger viewers, so stuffed is it with horrific imagery. Many horror-themed pieces have been branded "nightmarish", but Sapphire & Steel, with its combination of surreal visuals and frequently wild narratives, truly merits the description. Like the most terrifying nightmares, the show preys on childhood fears, playing with notions of the familiar becoming unfamiliar. Nursery rhymes take on a terrifying power, the still images in photographs spring to life and trusted figures - parents, police officers - are replaced by sinister impostors. In later life, Hammond confessed that he still received dozens of letters from adults who had been spooked by Sapphire & Steel as children - images such as the faceless man from 'Assignment 4' remained vivid in their memories. The show's tight budget also lent it an intense, claustrophobic feel. Each 'Assignment' took place in a single, contained setting - a spooky house, a train station, a café - and featured a small cast of, usually, no more than three or four major characters. And unlike most paranormal drama, we don't even have a strong, heroic figure to guide us through the darkness. Sapphire and Steel are remote, otherworldly, distant - their true motives remaining a mystery even to the viewer. Which brings us to our leads. Both Steel and Sapphire are perfectly cast - Lumley is glamorous and playful, a perfect partner for the severe, sour-faced McCallum. The show's recurring stars don't disappoint either - Val Pringle is terrific as the grinning gentle giant Lead, while David Collings is perfectly suave and mischievous as red-haired dandy Silver. Sapphire & Steel drew to a close after three years, with the final 'Assignment' ending on a cruel cliffhanger - our heroes were outfoxed and left trapped, seemingly for all eternity. Though a seventh adventure was planned, it never materialised, with various explanations emerging over the years for the show's abrupt axe. ITV Some have cited declining viewer interest, while others have claimed that McCallum and Lumley had decided to move on from the series. Whatever the reason, Sapphire & Steel was at an end, with those behind it moving on to even greater success. PJ Hammond's writing career continued to flourish, with the scribe penning two episodes of Torchwood in 2006 and 2008, while David McCallum currently stars in America's highest-rated drama series NCIS and Joanna Lumley... well, she's Joanna Lumley. If you're a fan of science-fiction or dark fantasy, we'd strongly recommend you check out Sapphire & Steel - a complete series box-set is available on DVD for you to enjoy! Just don't watch it alone, in the dark, with the curtains drawn... Were you a Sapphire and Steel fan? Share your memories of the show below!

India seals Rs 70,000 cr missile deal with Russia New Delhi, Nov 2 (UNI) In what could easily be said the biggest ever defence deal with Russia, India has stitched a contract to acquire S-400 anti-ballistic missile systems from Moscow at a cost of around Rs 70,000 crores, top sources in the Defence Ministry said here today. The modalities, including the price of deal and number of systems to be acquired, were agreed upon in the meeting of India-Russia Inter Governmental Commission on Military-Technical-Cooperation (IRIGC-MTC) which concluded today in Moscow, with Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar co-chairing it jointly with his Russian counterpart Sergei Shoigu. The mega deal, along with an agreement to get another nuclear submarine, is likely to be formally signed during the visit to Russia of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who would be travelling to Moscow sometime in December for an annual summit with President Vladimir Putin, the sources told UNI.

For 88 years, the historic structure at 300 Pine St. has been the epicenter of retail in Seattle, first as the home to The Bon Marché and later Macy’s. Now Amazon has ensured that it will continue into the next generation of retail, leasing a big chunk of office space in the building. Amazon confirmed Monday that it has leased six floors of office space above the downtown Seattle Macy’s store. The company expects to move into the building around late summer 2018. Starwood Capital Group owns the office space in the building. Initially, Starwood’s space encompassed four floors totaling about 312,000 square feet. But Starwood picked up two more floors last month, bringing the footprint to more than 475,000 square feet. At the time, Starwood didn’t say why it scooped up the extra space, but it appears that it was necessary to satisfy Amazon’s needs. To those fretting that Amazon will halt its growth in Seattle as it pursues a second North American headquarters, the lease is the latest sign that the retail giant plans to continue expanding in its hometown. Combined with the announcement earlier this month that Amazon plans to take all the 722,000 square feet of office space in the Rainier Square redevelopment project, Amazon has committed to approximately 1.2 million square feet of new office space in Seattle recently. Additionally, Amazon has become more willing to venture outside of its traditional hotspots of South Lake Union and the Denny Triangle as big blocks of available space become more scarce. At the 2017 GeekWire Summit, Amazon’s Worldwide Consumer CEO Jeff Wilke said the company employs 50,000 people in Seattle — the same amount it could eventually hire at HQ2. Another 6,000 jobs are coming, and Amazon is gearing up to occupy 2 million more square feet of office space in its hometown. A GeekWire analysis of Amazon’s office footprint in the Seattle area showed that between everything Amazon owns and occupies, as well as future projects, commitments and these two new leases, the online retail giant’s presence could eventually balloon to as much as 13.5 million square feet across 44 buildings. Amazon’s arrival at 300 Pine, which opened in 1929 as a location for The Bon Marché, effectively turns the building into a symbol of the past and future of retail. As Amazon has thrived in retail, expanding both online and in brick-and-mortar, its future neighbor Macy’s has struggled. Amazon has played a role in declining sales at department stores like Macy’s in recent years. In fact, a report last year predicted Amazon will pass Macy’s as the nation’s top clothing retailer this year. Macy’s is closing approximately 100 stores in the next few years and has sold off parts of other locations, as it did with the 300 Pine building in Seattle. Macy’s sold the top floors of 300 Pine to Starwood in 2015 for $65 million. The company said at the time the space was underused and Starwood quickly began a massive renovation project to turn the floors into office space and add a rooftop deck. Macy’s has downsized its Seattle store as it sold off space in the building. Before the sale to Starwood, selling space spanned across floors one through six and the basement. With the extra floors Starwood picked up last month, Macy’s will be down to just two floors plus space in the basement. Before closing the deal with Starwood, Macy’s was actually close to landing Facebook to fill the upper floors of the building, but couldn’t get an agreement done quick enough to satisfy Facebook’s immediate need for office space. Facebook instead opted for a building in Amazon’s backyard of South Lake Union, where it can house up to 2,000 people.

As fast as North Texas is growing it might surprise you to know that the growth comes in spite of a significant skilled labor shortage in the local construction industry. (Published Wednesday, June 28, 2017) As fast as North Texas is growing, it might surprise you to know that the growth comes in spite of a significant skilled labor shortage in the local construction industry. Construction companies in Dallas-Fort Worth report that they have between 10,000 to 20,000 jobs that are currently unfilled, according to the Dallas Builders Association. DBA president Michael Turner, who runs Classic Urban Homes, said it takes his crew eight to nine months to finish a home when it used to only take about six months. That delay translates into a higher cost for the customer. “What we’re strapped with is during the recession we lost about 50 percent of the labor force and they just really haven’t come back,” he said. “So we are trying to do more work with half as much workforce as what we had previously.” Due to the lack of qualified workers, Turner said he and other employers must pay more to retain the good workers they do have. For example, a qualified bricklayer recently would fetch about $10 per hour. Today, Turner pays his bricklayers $18 to $19 per hour. A survey of the construction industry in Texas from 2013 revealed that nearly 40 percent of construction workers were foreigners, with many of those people being Mexicans. DBA executive director Phil Crone went to the White House recently to meet with representatives of the Trump Administration, along with other members of the home building industry to make sure Washington is aware of what’s at stake in Dallas-Fort Worth. Crone noted there is a lot of disconnect between support for the President’s talk of a border wall with Mexico and the reality of the modern construction industry. “A lot of this misunderstanding has been created by the rhetoric of the president, and there has been a lot of focus on enforcement action and people who are here and who may need to not be here,” he said. “But the vast majority of the people that are working on the job site are just well-meaning people, they have a great work ethic [and] we need them to get the job done here.” Crone does praise the President’s proposal to expand the H-2B guest worker visa program that currently allows 66,000 non-agricultural workers from foreign countries to work in the United States. President Trump’s budget proposal would double that number. “I think it’s going to take a long time before [the worker shortage situation] gets better around here,” he said. “If we continue to see the demand that we are seeing in the DFW area, more than 100,000 jobs coming in, 20,000 workers short. That [will take] a long time to bridge that gap.”

QUEENSLAND’S remarkable Riversleigh World Heritage Fossil Site has produced another amazing world first — giant sperm. The sperm came from tiny shrimps that lived at least 17 million years ago. Thought to have been longer than the male’s entire body, the sperm are tightly coiled up inside the sexual organs of the fossilised freshwater crustaceans, which are known as ostracods. And perhaps the weirdest thing about the find is that it likely took a steady rain of disgusting bat poo into a rainforest pond to preserve the cells. Mike Archer, of the UNSW school of biological, earth and environmental Sciences, who has been excavating Riversleigh for 38 years, said they were the oldest fossilised sperm ever found. ``The discovery of fossil sperm, complete with sperm nuclei, was totally unexpected,’’ Professor Archer said. ``It now makes us wonder what other types of extraordinary preservation await discovery in these deposits. ``It’s one thing to find cells but to find internal structure in cells like the nucleus is staggering. It’s mind blowing.’’. Riversleigh in remote northwest Queensland has seen the discovery of many extraordinary prehistoric animals, like giant, toothed platypuses and flesh-eating kangaroos. ``We have become used to delightfully unexpected surprises in what turns up there,’’ he said. A UNSW research team led by Professor Archer, Suzanne Hand and Henk Godthelp collected the ostracods from an area known as the Bitesantennary Site at Riversleigh in 1988. They were sent to John Neil, a specialist ostracod researcher at La Trobe University, who realised they contained fossilised soft tissues. He showed them to European specialists, including Renate Matzke-Karasz from Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Germany, who examined the specimens with Paul Tafforeau at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility in Grenoble, France. The microscopic study revealed the fossils contain preserved internal organs. Within these are almost perfectly preserved giant sperm cells, and within them, the nuclei that once contained the animals’ chromosomes and DNA. Also preserved are the Zenker organs — chitinous-muscular pumps used to transfer the giant sperm to the female. The researchers estimate the fossil sperm are about 1.3 millimetres long, about the same length or slightly longer than the ostracod itself. Professor Archer said the animals lived in water in a cave in the middle of a vast rainforest. ``Tiny ostracods thrived in a pool of water in the cave that was continually enriched by the droppings of thousands of bats,” Prrofessor Archer said. UNSW’s Suzanne Hand, a specialist in extinct bats and their ecological role at Riversleigh, said the bats could have played a role in the preservation of the sperm cells. The steady rain of poo from thousands of bats in the cave would have led to high levels of phosphorous in the water, which could have aided mineralisation of soft tissues. ``This amazing discovery … is echoed by a few examples of soft-tissue preservation in fossil bat-rich deposits in France,’’ Associate Professor Hand said. ``So the key to eternal preservation of soft tissues may indeed be some magic ingredient in bat droppings.’’ Perfectly preserved cells of leaves have been found, as well as the preserved soft tissue of eyeballs in the eye sockets of extinct marsupials. The study is published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B.

A random act of kindness, that took place at Woodland Mall in Kentwood on December 18, is inspiring many. We've been highlighting the amazing and generous people of West Michigan all week. Hundreds of people across West Michigan have been volunteering their precious time to bring joy to others: Volunteers bring power in numbers, but sometimes just one person can bring great joy. David Sisson lives in Grand Rapids. He is the Manager of Data Initiatives for First Steps , a non-profit which focuses on early childhood development and access to services for children in Kent County. On December 18, Sisson stopped at Woodland Mall around 7:00pm. He was walking through the center of the mall, on his way to Williams Sonoma , when he was approached by a young boy. He then experienced a random act of kindness he will never forget. Sisson couldn't wait to share his experience. As soon as he got back to his car in Woodland Mall's parking lot, Sisson posted the following on his Facebook page: I ran in for something quick, Starbucks travel mug in hand, when an 8-year-old boy walked up to me, tugged on my jacket, handed me an envelope with the words "For You" scrawled across it, and wished me a Merry Christmas. I thanked him, wished him the same in return, and stood there a moment to process what just happened. The boy was gone before I knew it, lost in the hustle and bustle of the mall crowd one week before Christmas. Inside the envelope was a gift card to Starbucks and the following note: "This is random act of kindness #15 of 26 in honor of the victims of Sandy Hook Elementary. Please enjoy this, and pay it forward by doing something kind for someone else." Wow. Merry Christmas is right. Thank you, Lord, for visiting me tonight. I hear you. Consider it done. What a great and inspiring reminder of the impact that just one person can have. Whether it's a $10,000 check to pay off layaway at a store , a small gift card to a stranger, or a special visit from Santa ...one person CAN make a difference! The $5 gift card is still in Sisson's pocket...for now. Eventually the gift card will be gone, but the act of kindness from a young boy at Woodland Mall will continue to inspire. The spirit of Christmas and the memory of those lost at Sandy Hook Elementary are both strong in West Michigan.

A portly man outside a Town Hall meeting carries a sign reading "Abolish federal government." A middle-aged banshee screams "Nazi" at a pro-health care reform Israeli emigre. Tap dancing Tom DeLay, caught up in the thrall of his own voice on national TV, demands that Obama show the world his "gift certificate." Rep. Michele Bachmann says that prayer and fasting will defeat health care reform. Meet the Stupids circa 2009, folks, a familiar perfect storm of the flimflammers and the flimflammed, united as one to make nonsensical noise. I say "familiar" because, no matter how aberrated the recent spate of AstroTurf antics may seem, they are as American as apple pie. In fact, they are based on two of this country's founding principals: paranoia and righteous stupidity. Our foundation in a nutshell using the above precepts: "We've arrived in a new land. Look! People with red skin! Let's kill them before they kill us!" and "It's okay because God is on our side." Seen through such a prism, it's no wonder, then, that you have someone like Bachman whining that Obama is "reaching down the throat and ripping the guts out of freedom" or that someone is protesting health care reform with a sign reading: "Stop the Trojan horse of Islam." America has always had sort of a schizoid nature in terms of dealing with truth and intellect - not exactly a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde set-up as much as a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Shithead scenario. When faced with truth that can't be ignored, shout it down. When confronted by change, shout louder. When shown that you're in error, kill the messenger. A large swath of this country has always defined itself as white Christians who are opposed to anything that doesn't seem white or Christian enough. That same swath is also paranoid about some secular ruler telling them what to do, perhaps owing to their ancestors fleeing the monarch of choice to get over here. (Ironically, from "manifest destiny" to "spreading democracy," these are pretty much the same people who want to duplicate the Empires of old by taking over and subjugating countries and peoples who aren't white and/or Christian, handing them an American flag, a crucifix and a Coke.) Once patriots of old found out they could subjugate red folks, they turned their attention to black folks, yellow folks and brown folks before moving onto white ethnic or religious groups that didn't fit in with their concept of what America should be. "No Irish Need Apply" was one step away from "Back of the Bus." Defining Jews as "money-grubbing power mongers" later evolved into Arabs as "money-grubbing power mongers" in the 1980s and, of course, our current "Muslims as heathen war-mongers" motif. We're equal opportunity paranoids. Even the much-lauded Protestant Work Ethic was once used to justify being rich. If you were rich, God was giving you a thumb's up. If you were poor, God didn't really care for you and was giving you the celestial equivalent of the Bronx cheer. So, when you add the "greed is good" axiom to the fear and stupidity mix, there's no reason to be shocked at the current anti-health care reform sideshow. It has nothing to do with health care reform. It has everything to do with fear of change, fear of a Black president and the perceived loss of power. The fact that most of the people protesting are powerless doesn't matter. They are being bankrolled and directed by those who have power, members of the GOP and big business. Let's concentrate on the protestors for a moment. Most of them wouldn't know Socialism from Botulism. Their worldview is in Braille. Yet, there they are carrying signs decrying "Obama's Nazi health care plan" and offering "Send Obama Home To Kenya" and "Black National Socialism Is Not Utopia." (Note: Normally, I would shield the names of these folks and refer to them by the generically nonjudgmental term "fucktard A" or "fucktard B." However, these idiots have worked so long and hard for their fifteen minutes of fame; let's ridicule them by name.) William Kostrick showed up with a pistol strapped to his leg at a New Hampshire Obama speech and a sign referring to the quote "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time by the blood of tyrants and patriots." When asked if the gun was loaded, he replied that only an idiot would carry an unloaded one. D'oh. Chris Broughton, who brought an assault rifle to an Obama rally in Arizona, said, "I don't want to be Joe-the-Plumber. I'm hoping my fifteen minutes of fame are over." He said that in an interview that was recorded BEFORE he showed up to the event armed to the teeth. (He's also a member of a group called "We the People" which pledges to restore "Freedom and Constitutional Order through the exercise of popular sovereignty by all possible non-violent means." Rest assured, folks, guns don't kill people. Non-violent dickwads with guns kill people.) At the event, he declared, "We will forcefully resist people imposing their will on us through the strength of the majority with a vote." Whut? (Note: a lot of the gun-toters and their defenders state that they're exercising their Second Amendment rights to protect their First Amendment rights. Here's hoping they combine the two and just shoot their mouths off.) Before he attended the event, Broughton attended a service conducted by pastor Steven Anderson of the Faithful Word Baptist Church who, in a sermon, entitled "Why I Hate Barack Obama," said he wished Obama would die and go to Hell. He later said that he wasn't advocating assassination. "I don't want him to be a martyr," Anderson clarified, "we don't need another holiday. I'd like to see him die, like Ted Kennedy, of brain cancer." When Broughton was asked if he favored violence he said, "I'm not going to answer that question directly. I don't care how God does it, I'm not going into further detail than that." Welcome to Fox Nation. Probably the most entertaining of the "I am clueless, hear me roar" group is a curly-haired lass named Katy Abram, a 35-year-old mom who showed up trembling at an Arlen Specter event, blurting "This is about the systematic dismantling of this country. I'm only 35 years old. I've never been interested in politics. You have awakened the sleeping giant. We are tired of this. This is why everybody in this room is so ticked off! I don't want this country turning into Russia, turning into a socialized country. What are you going to do to restore this country back to what our founders created according to the Constitution?" Later, on Sean Hannity's geek show, she said, "I know that years down the road, I don't want my children coming to me and asking me, 'Mom, why didn't you do anything? Why do we have to wait in line for, I don't know, toilet paper or anything?'" Now, one can scoff at this woman's lack of knowledge. (Excuse me. I think I will now. Scoff! Scoff!) She managed, however, to crystallize the intellectual acumen of the protestors the following day with an appearance on "Hardball" with guest host Laurence O'Donnell. She complained that the health care bill would raise her taxes. O'Donnell pointed out that taxes would be raised only on families earning $250,000 or more a year. "Would that include you and your family?" he asked. Abram blinked. "Honestly, I'd rather not say. I don't even know. My husband takes care of the bills and everything. You know, he takes care of us, and that's all that matters." Um, how many of you reading this have no idea of how much money you're earning? (Let me take off my wax lips and ponder this.) Here are a couple of priceless exchanges that show the true depth of her knowledge. O'DONNELL: "Well, do you believe the president when he says, if you like the health care plan you have, as you say you do, you can keep that health care plan? Is that something, when you hear it, you simply don't believe it?" ABRAM: "I don't believe it because I heard him say on a quote on television that, you know, it may take five or 10 years, but we will move to a single-payer health-or to a single-payer..." O'DONNELL: "He - Katy, he's never said that. He has never said we will move to a single-payer plan." ABRAM: "I heard - I heard it on TV. I heard it on TV. I heard him saying it." O'DONNELL: "The president of the United States - Katy, the president of the United States has never said." ABRAM: "This was a couple years..." O'DONNELL: "Oh, yes, it was a few years ago?" ABRAM: "It was like in 2002 or 2000.... It was a couple of years ago. This wasn't - it's not since he's been in office." O'DONNELL: "Now, do you - are your parents on Medicare?" ABRAM: "No, but they're very, very close. My father is very close." O'DONNELL: "So, when they cross the line into 65, are they going to not participate in Medicare? Would you like them - would you tell them please don't participate in Medicare because it's a single-payer government-funded system? Have you had that conversation with them?" ABRAM: "No, we don't talk politics..." As we all know, Medicare discussions between family members are always really political. It's right up there with that hot button Social Security decision. Here's another good one. O'DONNELL: "You said in your statement that you're 35 years old, and nothing has gotten you interested in politics before. And what's interesting to me about that is, that means you, as an adult, lived through 9/11." ABRAM: "Yes." O'DONNELL: "You lived through the invasion of Afghanistan, the war in Afghanistan, the first chapter of what became two wars in the Middle East, including the Iraq war. "You lived through all of that, and were not, as you put it... awakened into an interest in politics. How could those things pass through your life like this, and not spark any interest in politics, prior to the - Washington saying we think we want to help out some people who can't afford health insurance the way you can? Why would it - why would this be the thing that wakes you up, after you were - you were willing to just ignore politics as we went past 9/11 into Afghanistan, into Iraq?" ABRAM: "Sure. Sure. I - I always seemed to have faith in the government. And, honestly, I didn't really care. I had other things going on, you know, getting married, having children. It just - it wasn't a priority in my life. "And, you know, I really didn't start even watching the news at all, I think, until maybe 1991, I guess it was, when we first went to the Gulf War. I remember watching CNN with my dad and watching the infrared missiles going across that you could see. And I think it -to me -maybe I'm just not that smart, but, you know, it seems like we have kind of been at war for - since then. I mean or maybe even before. I don't know. It just always seems like we're - we're having some kind of conflict. So, that, you know, whether-about wars, I don't know. That just seems commonplace now. I think everybody's just so used to it. But you asked why - why - what has woken me up to - why I have woken up to get to this point." O'DONNELL: "Well, let me actually - let me just go now to the - what-the question you actually put to Arlen Specter, which was, you said to him... what are you going to do to restore this country back to what our founders created, according to the Constitution? "Let's just go through a checklist of what you think that would require. I assume that would require repealing Medicare, because that's a single-payer government-funded health care system, which is socialism. I agree with you, by the way. That is socialism. I think it's successful, practical, smart socialism, but it is definitely socialism. So, you would want to repeal that, wouldn't you?" ABRAM: "I hate to have words put in my mouth. I mean, I - I honestly..." O'DONNELL: "Well, the founding fathers did not anticipate Medicare. So, we can repeal that, can't we, in order to get back to what you think the founding fathers would have us do?" ABRAM: "Yes, I think a lot of the programs that - that are in place were not supposed to be - were not supposed to be here." So, you got that? She knows Obama said stuff before he became President because she heard about it on the tee-vee. We've been at war since 1991. She was kind of preoccupied during the Bush years, so the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, the financial collapse, the whole torture thing sort of escaped her. But now? HEALTH CARE REFORM HAS GOT 'ER ALL RILED UP! Let's strike all laws that weren't in the Constitution. While we're at it, let's bring back muskets and slavery and stop all this electricity nonsense. Okay, let's give everyone the benefit of the doubt. I'm sure these folks are good people, good parents and howdy-do neighbors, no matter how ill-informed. Now, surely, their leaders, in an attempt to improve these people's outlook, would advise them to learn the facts, have level-headed discussions at various group functions and, most of all, embrace change as a way to strengthen this nation and improve the lives of its citizenry. Naaaah. If you're a Republican in office, thoroughly P.O.'d about not being the majority party, you'll encourage these people to stay ignorant by spreading lies, distortions and warn about a government takeover. Tha'rs gonna be euthanasia, recess break free abortions, pre-assigned commie doctors, eugenic experiments, high taxes, the above-mentioned toilet paper lines and, of course, the takeover of your checking account. What does all this have to do with the facts? Nothing, but play along, here. Republican waffle maker Mitch McConnell is totally against evil health care reform, although he's admitted he hasn't read any bill. Louisiana Rep. David Vitter hasn't read anything, although he's in the opposition, because "I have a fundamental problem with any 1,000 page bills." Yeah. When they don't have game pages, it's a bitch. Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe, who still doesn't believe in global warming, is also against reform, saying he doesn't have to read anything to know its bad. "I don't have to read it, or know what's in it. I'm going to oppose it anyways." Inhofe has also said that blocking health care reform would mean a "huge gain" for Republicans in 2010. How's that for our government inaction? When everyone's favorite fabricator, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, raised the specter of government run "death panels" (on Facebook, no less) wiping out the aged and infirmed like the Grim Reaper, she was promptly smacked-down. This made her bring it up again, adding that the V.A. had a "death book" for sick GIs encouraging veterans to off themselves instead of seeking care. The end result was these two peas in a pod headlines: "Palin Doubles Down on Death Panels" and "Limbaugh Praises Palin's 'Intellectual Heft' On Death Panels." A "Dumb & Dumber" remake? If only. Grinning Gomer and talk show smoothie Mike Huckabee said that, under Obama's health care program, Senator Ted Kennedy would have been urged to die. Sen. Chuck Grassley, who is nobody's fool (perhaps EVERYbody's, but that's another story), decided to pour gasoline on the fire by declaring, "You have every right to fear... We should not have a government program that determines if you're going to pull the plug on grandma." When it was pointed out to him that he was speaking out of an orifice usually reserved for Preparation H and that there was no such provision in any of the proposed health care bills, he blamed the uproar he caused on liberals. Said Grassley, "Well, listen. I see that as nothing more than a distortion from the far left bringing up these end-of-life concerns, which are not the issues we ought to be talking about. We ought to be talking about government takeover of the health care system. We ought to be talking about the exploding deficits. We ought to be talking about the failure to get on top of high health care costs, and all of these things are in the Pelosi health care bill. And it seems to me they don't want to talk about the real issues." Another nail in he coffin of the word "irony." Grassley, who actually brought a copy of Glenn Beck's book "Common Sense" to a rally, fancies himself a bi-partisan mediator but said that he wouldn't vote for a bill he had a hand in creating if other Republicans wouldn't. "I'm negotiating for Republicans," said Grassley, who is the Finance panel's ranking member. "If I can't negotiate something that gets more than four Republicans, I'm not a very good representative of my party." When you get around to representing the American people, let us know there, cheezoid Chuckie. Chuckie, who's into the Insurance lobby so deep he needs a periscope, also declared, "When you have the government running something, government is not a fair competitor. The government is a predator, not a competitor." (Wotta patriot!) After two weeks of Preparation H applications, Chuck finally admitted that there were no provisions for "death panels" in any bill. Dancing fool Tom DeLay declared that the bizarre anti-health reform antics were perfectly fine. In fact, the Lefties did the same to him. On "Hardball," he said, ""This has been going on forever. When I did my town hall meetings -- I'll never forget one back in the 80s, on health care, by the way. They brought in quadriplegics on gurneys and dumped them on the floor in front of my podium." The only possible flaw in DeLay's assessment is that the above demonstration never happened. Plus, in order to revive his tarnished GOPee street cred, he tossed in a few "birther" demands, too, asking a slack-jawed Chris Matthews, "Would you ask the president to show me his gift certificate -- uh -- birth certificate?" The GOP sent out a survey suggesting that, should health care reform pass, Republicans would be denied care. Probably the most interesting voice of insanity has been Rep. Michele Bachmann, who spews sound bites the way Linda Blair did pea soup in "The Exorcist." In the past two weeks alone, she has called for everything from revolution to prayer shawls. Together with South Carolina's Sen. Jim DeMint(ia) she advised conservative governors not to obey any health reform laws. "We'd have to see some fairly revolutionary action taken by these states," she opined. She also declared "Under no circumstances will I give the government control over my body." (Uh, especially since you're having so many problems with the mouth-brain connection as is.) She stated that the battle against health care would be won "On our knees in prayer and fasting." My personal favorite is her plan to bring a brotherhood of anti-reform folks together via a primitive ritual, gone horribly wrong. "What we have to do today is make a covenant, to slit our wrists, be blood brothers on this thing." Here's hoping she and her followers do just that (Make sure to make the razor cut vertical and not horizontal, sweetie. You'll be a lot bloodier brothers that way.) As someone who has become a blood brother through pricking a finger or slitting one's palm and then shaking hands with a person's similarly slit outstretched hand, I can say that I'm really impressed with Bachmann's one-off method. It represents the Grand Guignol wing of the GOP. Now, that takes care of the fear and ignorance factor of the debate. How about a little racism? Well, Rex Rammell an Idaho Republican gubernatorial candidate thought it was funny when he said he'd buy a license to hunt President Obama. Although, later, he clarified, "I would never support him being assassinated." That's mighty white of you, Rex. Arizona Rep. Trent Franks said, before the election, he came within three days of launching a lawsuit against Obama, forcing him to prove his citizenship. Why? He was "terrified" of Obama. Kansas Rep. Lynn Jenkins said the only salvation of the Republican Party would be in the finding of "A Great White Hope." In Florida, the head of the state GOP, Jim Greer, is denouncing Obama's address to school children next week as an attempt to indoctrinate the children in Obama's ideology. GOP flack Katie Gordon told "Talking Points Memo," "Students can't pray in school, but they can discuss new ideas and actions that the President is challenging them to think about. Well, I know that a lot of the President's ideas don't reflect my values and don't reflect the values that I would be teaching my children. And to be quite honest, there are a lot of the President's ideas that I wouldn't want my children discussing in a public school. It's not appropriate, the place for that is in the home." Right-wing web sites like Worldnetdaily and Americanfreepress have been telling readers that Obama's government has purchased 30,000 guillotines to behead its critics. If there are more critics than blades, the government is also constructing concentration camps for its detractors. Man, Obama's guys think of everything. So, why is everyone surprised when someone shows up at a demonstration holding signs reading "Death To Obama" and "Death To Michelle and her two stupid kids?" For its part, the MSM has been covering these exercises in paranoia as if they were the product of a concerted political movement. They're not. They're a product of traditional fears being amped-up and directed by those who get off and profit from pulling the strings, including those of the right-wing persuasion in the MSM. How else do you explain CNBC's Maria Bartiromo asking 44-year-old Rep. Anthony Weiner: "If Medicare's so good, why aren't you on it?!!!" Uh, because he's only 44? Just a guess, ditz. These are scary times, folks. They're also stupid times. After health care, there will be another GOP cherry-picked Obama policy to compare to either Nazi Germany or Krakatoa. Bet on it. And there will always be protestors like the one wearing a goatee and sporting big ol' shades who held up a pocket copy of the U.S. Constitution and declared: "Right here. I got a book here called the 'U.S.S. Constitution.' I'm sure everybody's seen this before. And you know what? I've read this book three times now, and I've referenced it dozens of times and I can't find one little paragraph in here that says the government has the right to take over our health care." What can you call a guy who holds "Old Ironsides" in his hand for scrutiny? Ignoramus? Wouldn't faze him. He'd have to look it up. And, to look it up, he'd have to know how to spell it. Which, in turn, would lead us to the topic of raising the standards of the American Education System which is, of course, a socialist/facist/Nazi plot to enslave and indoctrinate our children into a state of, uh, smartness. Morans. _______

A photo of a drowned migrant baby is being circulated online by a German humanitarian group trying to prompt more help for refugees attempting to cross the Mediterranean. The photo — similar to last year's viral photo depicting a drowned three-year-old boy — shows an infant who was pulled dead out of the sea after a wooden boat capsized. The rescue was carried out by the group Sea-Watch, which is urging European governments to help refugees make the dangerous voyage safely. An Italian navy ship responding to the overturned boat picked up 135 survivors and 45 bodies, arriving in the southern Italian port of Reggio Calabria on Sunday. More than 8,000 people have died while crossing the Mediterranean since the beginning of 2014, attempting to escape violence in Syria and surrounding areas. Last year, a photo showing a three-year-old boy who washed up on a Turkish beach prompted widespread sympathy toward the plight of refugees. The rescuer of the infant said he had spotted the baby in the water "like a doll, arms outstretched." "I took hold of the forearm of the baby and pulled the light body protectively into my arms at once, as if it were still alive," he said in a statement. "It held out its arms with tiny fingers into the air, the sun shone into its bright, friendly but motionless eyes." "I began to sing to comfort myself and to give some kind of expression to this incomprehensible, heart-rending moment," added the man, who gave his name only as "Martin." "Just six hours ago this child was alive." Sea-Watch says the child's body was immediately handed over to the Italian navy. The group, which says it collected about 25 other bodies, is calling for European authorities to allow migrants safe and legal passage for refugees in order to halt people-smuggling. "If we do not want to see such pictures we have to stop producing them," the group said in a statement.

Half of the telegraph and electrical linemen in this country died on the job. In 1883, a group of them, members of the Knights of Labor, went on strike protesting low pay and unsafe working conditions. Their strike was broken. Still unsung, still suffering an appalling percentage of tradesmen electrocuted on the job, it took eight more years for a small contingent of courageous leaders to form a national union of electrical workers, the precursor of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. One hundred and thirty years later, all across the country, unsung workers in the fast food and retail industry are walking off the job in major cities protesting low pay and benefits. They don't face the appalling safety conditions that linemen did. But these mostly-young workers face the same ruthless resistance to decent wages and benefits from powerful and profitable companies, underscoring the growing chasm between the wealthiest Americans and the rest of society. Striking workers include Chris Thomas, a Nike store employee in Chicago who told The Huffington Post how he only made $10 an hour after working for Nike for years. He got a raise to $11, but then the store closed for renovations. When he came back to work, his pay was dropped back to $10 an hour. "They say we're low-skilled workers, but we're helping generate billions of dollars in profits," says Thomas. The Pew Research Center says that the top 7 percent of Americans saw their average net worth skyrocket by 28 percent between 2009 and 2011. The remaining 93 percent of the population saw their paychecks erode. The wealthiest 400 individuals in America have more cash and assets than half of all the families in the entire country put together. Even billionaires Warren Buffett and Lloyd Blankfein, the CEO of Goldman Sachs, say the lopsided distribution of wealth in the U.S. has reduced the purchasing power of average workers to a point that it endangers our economic future. In New Jersey, several IBEW locals have joined with 200 other groups in a petition campaign in support of a referendum on this coming November's ballot to increase the state's minimum wage to $8.25 with a cost-of-living adjustment. Hundreds of new voters are being registered under the slogan: "Register to Vote Yourself a Raise." Other states are seeing similar efforts. Workers who fill orders for expensive electronic equipment at Amazon.com have sued the company to be paid overtime for unpaid hours waiting in line to be checked by security personnel at the end of their shifts. In June, a caravan of workers and advocates will travel to Wal-Mart's annual stockholder's meeting in Bentonville, Ark. They will call for limits on executive pay while spreading awareness about the company's arrogant refusal to recognize the rights of their employees to speak out and organize. Some say members of a union of skilled workers like the IBEW don't have much in common with the strikers at restaurant chains, who began their protests on April 4, the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King's assassination in Memphis 45 years ago. They say we've got no skin in the struggle against wealth inequality. But we have everything to gain by supporting men and women who are putting a human face on the statistics about growing inequality in America. We all lose because the polarization of wealth threatens our economy and our democracy. Nothing makes the case better than the narratives and the spirit of men and women who, like our own members, exhibit the courage to speak up and demand justice on the job. These people aren't strangers. They are our neighbors, our kids, our brothers and sisters. This is our future. The Bureau of Labor Statistics says that at the current rate, by 2020, nearly three-fourths of all job openings in the U.S. will pay a median wage of less than $35,000 a year, with nearly 30 percent paying a median of about $20,000 a year. In November, hundreds of IBEW members will join other unions, individuals and organizations to participate in grassroots campaigns for candidates who pledge to stand up against growing wealth inequality and support real steps to reduce unemployment by rebuilding our nation's infrastructure. Sometimes our campaigns will help to win elections. Inevitably, some of our candidates will lose. When they do, it can make us feel like all of our talk is cheap or our voices are echoes in the desert. The low-wage worker strikes, campaigns like the one in New Jersey to raise the minimum wage, and the lawsuits of the workers at Amazon, show that we are part of a growing movement that reaches far beyond the men and women who belong to unions and even beyond which political party we belong to.

From Voz Iz Neias (Yiddish for “What’s News?”), September 5, 2012: Jerusalem – Israel is refusing to allow entry to a small group of African migrants huddled at a desert border fence with Egypt, officials said Wednesday, underscoring a toughened entry policy. The Eritrean group appeared to number a dozen, including two women and a teenager, according to activists and an AP photographer who was at the site Tuesday. They were crowded beside Israel’s new border fence, shaded by blue-striped plastic they hoisted above themselves. … Israeli Interior Minister Eli Yishai said they will not be allowed in, because that would encourage more African migrants to make the trip. “If there were no fence there, and we were not determined (to stop the influx of migrants), then that number would become 1 million people,” he said. Israel has almost completed a barrier along 200 kilometers (125 miles) of its border with Egypt to block African migrants and militants from the lawless Sinai. Officials have also expanded the capacity of detention centers to ensure those entering are immediately held, said Cohen of the rights group.

Ad Standards Board rules UltraTune ad vilifies women - Collective Shout About About Our Team Board Members Ambassadors Partners Campaigns Campaigns Our Wins Submissions Brands Join Us Join Us Events Become a CSR Pledge Partner Request a speaker Resources Resources Parents and Carers The Research Porn harms News News Media Releases YouTube In the Media Donate Donate Home / News Ad Standards Board rules UltraTune ad vilifies women Posted by Coralie Alison 24081sc on February 24, 2016 Earlier this year UltraTune launched its new series of television commercials which attracted substantial criticism from the broader community. UltraTune opted to screen their ads during the Australian Open while families were watching the tennis. You can read about them in our earlier blog post here. We encouraged people to lodge a complaint with the Advertising Standards Board - some did so for the very first time. Yesterday we heard the news that the Advertising Standards Board had upheld the complaints against UltraTune's ad. The Advertising Standards Board's response said: The Board noted that the intent of the advertisement is to depict two women unexpectedly breaking down – with the advertiser suggesting that regular services from Ultratune will prevent such an ‘unexpected situation.’ The Board accepted that the intent of the advertisement is to show an unrealistic situation. However the Board considered that the women are depicted as unintelligent in the way in which they sit passively, with blank faces, in the car on the train tracks and also in the way they appear to not notice the oncoming train. This behaviour, in the Board’s view, makes the women appear unintelligent and presents them in a stereotypical helpless female situation. In the Board’s view, the depiction of the women’s reaction to their situation is a negative depiction of women and does amount to vilification of women. The Board considered that the advertisement did portray or depict material in a way which discriminates against or vilifies a person or section of the community on account of gender and determined that the advertisement did breach Section 2.1 of the Code. UltraTune responded saying they "intend to seek an independent review of the Board’s decision" and "vigorously dispute these findings". UltraTune executive Chairman Sean Buckley still has the ad available on his YouTube channel at the time of writing. To read the full report click here. UltraTune's refusal to comply with the ASB ruling raises some serious questions about the effectiveness of ad industry self-regulation. The ASB has no power to compel advertisers to abide by its rulings, nor are there any penalties for advertisers who refuse to do so. Companies who have failed to act in line with ASB rulings in the past include Aussie Boat Loans, Wicked Campervans and more recently sex shop Honey Birdette, who posted on their Facebook page "Nobody tells Honey Birdette to take down her signage!" It is clear that industry self regulation is not working.

The plans, which will see 30 million euros ($33.6 million) set aside to compensate homosexuals convicted under an old law for their sexual preferences, were revealed by the German daily "Süddeutsche Zeitung" (SZ) on Saturday. Germany's Justice Minister Heiko Maas of the Social Democrats (SPD) told the paper that compensation would "depend on concrete individual cases," taking sentence duration into consideration. A draft law, set to be formally announced this month, will provide for "relatively uncomplicated" individual claims, Maas said. It also allows for collective compensation. Convicted homosexuals would also have their names cleared. The minister told "SZ" that he expects more than 5,000 men to have a personal claim. Thousands of victims The infamous Paragraph 175, which was part of Germany's criminal code from 1871 to 1994, made homosexual acts between men a crime. Over 140,000 men were convicted in total, with around 50,000 of them having been prosecuted since the end of World War II. The anti-gay code was tightened during the Nazi era, which saw thousands of gay and bisexual men rounded up and taken to concentration camps. After the war, gay men were often arrested again. As well as being jailed, they often lost their jobs and homes and suffered social exclusion. Repealed but no recompense In 1968, the former East Germany stopped applying the law, a year before the West, and the code was eventually abolished altogether in 1994. Nazi-era convictions of homosexuals were lifted in 2002, but there has been no pardon for those sentenced over the past 70 years. Germany's Green and Left parties have often demanded compensation for those affected by the legislation; the Green's spokeswoman Katja Keul described the lack of willingness to make amends before now "a monstrous disgrace."

Finding Time to Become a Better Developer Bill Sourour Blocked Unblock Follow Following Jun 27, 2016 It’s not as hard as you think. There’s no time for anything. At least that’s how it feels doesn’t it? No time to learn all the things you think you need to learn to stay ahead of the curve. No time to go back and refactor that ugly piece of code. It works (sort of) and there’s a deadline approaching. No time to write unit tests for everything. No time to write documentation or comments for the next guy who gets stuck maintaining what you wrote. No time to think. No time to breathe. No time! Well… if you take the time to read this article, I promise you’ll find yourself with more time for what’s important. I used to think that the only way to be a great developer was to work myself sick. My health, friendships, and family all suffered because of it. Understanding the following 5 truths about time management for a developer is what saved me. 1. You don’t need to learn every new thing in order to stay relevant. You don’t. There is no question that a good developer should always be learning, but where you focus your learning can make a huge difference in the amount of time it takes to stay on top of your game. “The old thing is dead. Long live the NEW, about-to-be-old thing!” First of all, don’t get suckered in by headlines on dev blogs that announce a new standard every 37 seconds. Most new technologies, frameworks, and features will never get any real traction and you’ll never need to know them. Those that do emerge will take a lot longer to gain adoption than the blogosphere — and the vendors who hock these new technologies — would have you believe. Companies are invested in their tech stack and, other than a handful of tiny tech startups, they can’t just turn on a dime. So, relax, your career is safe. Focus your learning on three areas, in the following order of priority: Fundamentals — It’s a lot easier to pick up new skills when you have a real command of the underlying fundamentals. For example, if you understand JavaScript deeply, you can master any new JavaScript framework in record speed. If you understand Object Oriented Programming deeply, you can master new object oriented languages quickly, too. Deeply learning the fundamentals will 10x your learning efficiency. Always focus on improving fundamentals above all else. The latest version/feature of the stack(s) you use the most — There’s a stack of technologies that you probably use every day. These are the tools that will put food on the table for you and your family. When new versions of these tools are released, it’s worth investing the time to learn about them. In-demand tech that is backed by market leaders — if a big, well established company like Google, Facebook, or Microsoft puts out something new and it starts getting some buzz, it’s worth looking into. There were a hundred and one JavaScript frameworks all vying for attention and then Angular and React showed up and wiped them off the map. I’m not saying there won’t be disruptors that come from nowhere and become the next big thing but, more often than not, no-name tech is just noise. Learning time should be a part of your schedule. Set aside a specific amount of time for learning every day. It doesn’t need to be a lot of time, even 25 minutes of reading and experimentation every day adds up quickly. 2. Writing good code takes less time than writing bad code, BUT it doesn’t feel that way. Time is a flat circle. You probably feel like the time you spend on a new feature ends when you run the code and it appears to work. But that’s just the beginning of your time investment. Time spent on a feature includes time spent debugging that feature later and also time spent refactoring and working other code around any poor design decisions you made when implementing that feature. When you start to understand your time investment this way, it becomes obvious that, in the long run, fewer errors and better design are a worthwhile investment. There are two things you can do that will reduce errors in your code and lead to better design. Use test-driven development. Write the test first, then write the code that satisfies the test. This not only leads to less buggy code but also to better design, because when you have to structure code in a testable way, you end up making smaller, simpler functions that have fewer dependencies. Use an iterative design approach. Don’t spend time trying to make code perfect before you’ve spent time trying to make the code work. You’ll never, ever get it right completely in your head. You have to get those fingers banging on a keyboard and produce code that runs and does what’s expected. The problem is that developers tend to make one of two common mistakes; either they spend too much time thinking and not enough time actually doing, or they don’t spend enough time improving their first solution. Follow the mantra first stated by Kent Beck: “make it work, make it right, make it fast” — and in that order. 3. Working 24/7 does NOT make you a hero. Managing expectations does. Home from work. Time to work! This is the one that nearly killed me. I used to agree and commit to any crazy timeline my boss or client could come up with. I was afraid of saying “no.” I was afraid of letting anyone down. I would do whatever it took to deliver. I have literally slept under my desk, and pulled multiple caffeine-fueled 40+ hour marathon coding sessions. At first I was a shining star. I would get a big pat on the back and I felt like a hero. But I set an expectation that was impossible to live up to. Working like that is unsustainable. Eventually, I started to burn out, get sick, and miss deadlines. I started getting a reputation as unreliable and inconsistent. It was bad news. What I eventually came to understand, and what you should commit to learning too, is that the real heroes are the ones who are consistently reliable. They say what they’ll do and do what they say. The only way to be that kind of hero is to manage expectations. You need to take control of the timelines so that you are always and without fail delivering high quality work exactly on time. This is incredibly difficult at first. It means having to say “no” and having to push back. In the beginning, your boss or client won’t be thrilled by your resistance, but once you demonstrate that you are trustworthy and reliable, everything will start to change. Over time, other developers will be late, deliver sloppy work, or burn out and become unreliable. Then you will become the real hero of your team. In fact, learning this made me one of the most in demand consultants in my market. I’ve built a stellar reputation for quality and timeliness, because I vigorously manage expectations. 4. Not all time spent “improving” code has the same ROI. Spending time is an investment. Like all investments, it’s reasonable to expect a return on investment (ROI). You should be getting back at least as much — and hopefully more — value than you put in. We talked about “make it work, make it right, make it fast.” It’s a good mantra but there is a trap: “right” does not mean perfect, and “fast” does not mean absolutely as fast as possible. “Right” means that the code works consistently and is easy to refactor. “Fast” means that the speed of execution does not have a negative impact on the overall user experience. The most important thing is that your application feels fast to the user. So, don’t waste time trying to shave time off a function that is barely used, or trying to save another few milliseconds on something that already runs faster than a human can blink (~300ms). And don’t waste time trying to refactor working, well-structured code because you just learned some new technique or approach that you’ve convinced yourself you suddenly have to go back and apply to everything you’ve ever done. 5. Scheduled down time makes you more productive. Dude, relax. This was a very hard one for me to learn and accept. How can you possibly be more productive when you’re not spending all your time producing? Well, it’s true. According to Allison Gabriel, an assistant professor of management at Virginia Commonwealth University who studies job demands and employee motivation, “There is a lot of research that says we have a limited pool of cognitive resources. When you are constantly draining your resources, you are not being as productive as you can be. If you get depleted, we see performance decline. You’re able to persist less and have trouble solving tasks”. Always working sets off strain reactions, such as stress, fatigue, and negative mood. These drain your focus and your physical and emotional resources. The brain’s ability to self-regulate — to stay disciplined — wanes with each exercise of self-control during the day. It’s a loss of resources that must be replenished. Otherwise it becomes harder to stay on-task, be attentive and solve problems. Your mind and body need down time, and they’re going to get it whether you like it or not. So, schedule that down time. Actually plan and put on your calendar real scheduled breaks. This will allow you to take down time without feeling guilty about it. It will make work-time easier to endure because you’ll know that you have a scheduled break right around the corner. More help and resources To help you even more, I’ve put together a list of free and useful resources (videos, tutorials and websites) that can help you better understand and implement the insights I’ve just shared with you. You can get it here. I hope you found this article valuable. Don’t forget to help others by recommending ❤ and sharing it.

ATLANTA, April 14 (UPI) -- An Atlanta judge orderd stiff sentences, ranging from probation to seven years in prison, to 10 former public school educators found guilty of cheating in standardized testing. One by one, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Jerry Baxter sentenced three of the educators, all regional directors in the city's school system, to seven years each in prison. Sharon Davis-Williams and Tamara Cotman were each sentenced to 20 years, with seven years of incarceration and the balance as probation. They must also perform 2,000 hours of community service and pay a $25,000 fine. Michael Pitts received the same sentence with an additional five years to run concurrently on a charge of influencing a witness. Two weeks ago, jurors found the group guilty of violating the state's Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act by conspiring to change test answers to make a variety of schools look better and open to additional funding. Some of those convicted have said they are innocent. During the sentencing hearing, Baxter told the court, "If you don't do what your supposed to do or break the law, they can bring you back to me and I can re-sentence you. If you do complete this probation and do all the conditions of community service, then you would not have a felony on your record." In addition to the prison sentences in the cheating scandal, some were sentenced on lesser charges including making false statements.

As League of Ireland clubs prepare for their entry into European Competition for 2013/2014 I thought I’d go through some European statistics and trivia. So far LOI clubs have played 475 European games, including 228 knock out ties. Here’s the European record for the 22 clubs who have represented the League of Ireland in European competition; I have them sort by European entries, then games played, then ties won.. You can see that Bohemians have entered European competition the most with 26 entries. Irish teams have competed for 55 years so no club has been in Europe more than half the time. Shamrock Rovers have played equal most games. Their superb run to the Europa League group stages in 2011/12 accounts for 12 of these games. St Patrick’s Athletic have the most knock out ties won with 9. 8 of these have come in their last 4 entries into Europe. Drogheda United are the only club without a losing record. They have won 5 and lost 5 of their 14 games so far. The above shows that Irish clubs have won 53 knock out ties. On 10 occasions Irish clubs have won through 2 rounds in Europe. They’re broken down as (4 – St Patrick’s Athletic, 2, – Cork City, 1 – Derry City, Dundalk, Shamrock Rovers, Shelbourne). Shamrock Rovers is unique as they won in the Champions League, then lost in the Champions League, then won in the Europa League. Dundalk and Shelbourne had their wins in the European Cup/Champions League, Cork City have one ‘double’ in the Inter-toto Cup. All other doubles in the UEFA Cup/Europa League. The record aggregate win by an Irish club in Europe is Shamrock Rovers 7-0 win over Fram (Iceland) in 1982/83. The record loss is 1-16 by Finn Harps against Derby County in 1976/77. If you’re a Euro snob and you refuse to acknowledge the Inter-toto cup. Here’s the records with those games excluded; As ever, any questions ask away Advertisements

Design engineers and systems integrators benefit from considerably shorter development times and gain significantly more flexibility. As a result, the modules open up a whole raft of new options for developers and users. The company will premiere the new display module to a wide audience at electronica 2016. The new EA uniTFT050 makes it remarkably easy to combine, modify and adapt a great many objects to a particular need. All objects can be positioned, rotated and zoomed in on as required on the screen and attributes such as transparency and color assigned, while there’s also the option of linking objects to actions. It couldn't be easier for design engineers needing to create keys, dials and other control elements and assign specific functions to them. And that's not all: with the use of style sheets, it is also possible to standardize the look of these elements, thereby creating elegant and user-friendly designs. Tones can also be incorporated for a range of functions from acoustic feedback for operating procedures to entire jingles. The module also allows designers to create fonts to suit their needs, and with Unicode on board the control unit is prepared for all fonts and for marketing worldwide. uniSKETCH, a specially designed PC graphic tool, enables users to create screen layouts and interfaces, edit the properties of objects and adapt style sheets. Also available as an option are display modules with a touch panel that use resistive or PCAP technology. With the PCAP Touch, multi-touch inputs familar from smartphones and tablet computers can also be provided. The appropriate touch controller and software are already integrated into the display modules. Where they are to be connected to external devices, actuators and sensors, the display modules are able to access all interfaces which are significant for industrial electronics – such as SPI, RS-232, I2C-Bus and USB. Several analog inputs, one PWM output and 16 digital I/O lines allow the module to be integrated into all types of control tasks. Moreover, the video input also provides for the direct playback of video signals. This comprehensive design even allows the display modules to be operated as stand-alone units, e.g. for controlling different devices. The EA uniTFT050-A, ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLY's first model to come onto the market, has a screen diagonal of 5 inches (12.7 cm). Designs with diagonals of 8 inches and 10.1 inches will follow shortly.

Love the One You’re With Skip to content Love the One You’re With Birding, like fishing, is unpredictable, which can be either frustrating or exciting, depending on how you view it. As I noted here in 2002, I loved fishing with my dad as a kid, so, it’s probably not surprising that birding is exciting, not frustrating, for me. If you don’t see the Harlequin you were hoping/expecting to see, keep looking and you might see something equally exciting. On this weekend, that was the Red-breasted Merganser. I only saw two at Fort Flagler and they were both a long ways offshore, so far I could barely see them without my 840 mm telephoto lens, and, even then, this shot is heavily cropped. Still, it’s impossible to miss that dramatic hairdo. This shot of a male Red-breasted Merganser with a large Sole taken a few miles down the road at Mystery Bay State Park would have been the shot of the day if it hadn’t been for the green reflections in the water. I was pleasantly surprised to be greeted by two male Red-Breasted Mergansers when we visited the Marine Center at Fort Worden. It was a little disappointing that the two males never came closer even though I waited several minutes for them to come closer, but I was pleasantly surprised when three female Red-Breasted Mergansers swam right up to Marine Center dock where we were standing. This female sat on the beach nearby preening herself before rejoining the others and swimming right under us as they left, so close that I could never get all three females in the frame. It would seem ungrateful to complain about not seeing as many Harlequins as I had hoped to see when I saw so many Red-breasted Mergansers, a bird I seldom see around Tacoma.

Reply Loren says: February 8, 2022 at 10:18 pm You’re really asking the guy who’s going bald what the evolutionary function of the merganser’s hairdo is? No idea, but it does distinguish it from a male Common Merganser that looks quite similar. My guess is that it has to do with attracting a mate. Loading... Reply WoodswomanWrites.com says: February 8, 2022 at 9:32 pm You are so right about going into a birding outing with an openness to whatever you find, and I love reading about your unexpected discoveries. And that shot of the merganser with the fish is incredible. Loading... Reply What do you think? Cancel reply This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed.

Interior Planning Tips - Decorate Like A Pro – Custom Window Treatments by Suzanne Jones Custom Window Treatments Home About Make An Appointment Interior Planning Tips – Decorate Like A Pro If you need a little guidance in order to begin designing others’ houses, you’ve come to the right place. The following article was made to help people learn more about interior decorating. Read this article and learn. If you are interested in interior design, you may want to invest in art. You might not ever care about art, but you will be surprised at the outcome when you put it in. A good painting is a great way to get started with your interior decorating. When you are furnishing a small space, use furniture that can be used in different ways. Instead of a sofa or chair, you may want to go with an ottoman. The ottoman can be used as both a place to sit as well as a table. Finding items with two functions can help maximize tiny spaces. TIP! One tip that you should follow is to use as many designs and patterns as you can. Patterns and textures attract the eye and add visual interest. An tip when interior designing a room is to always be mindful of how much light the room will get. If one of your rooms doesn’t have a lot of windows, you should consider using a light shade to prevent your room from looking too dark. If you are redecorating the kitchen you have a lot of fun options to consider regarding counters. Though granite is a great, traditional option, surfaces such as cork, wood or even concrete can offer great appeal. If granite will put you over your budget, consider wood, concrete or cork for your counter tops. Focus on the details. You could create a wonderful looking room simply with color patters or using smaller elements of decor. You could use cupboard knobs, fixtures and try to have a theme that contributes to a larger picture. It is much cheaper than purchasing new furniture or changing your floors. TIP! Once you have an idea of what you want, check mass retailers for quality equivalents of designer work. Designer goods are very expensive and it’s easy to find comparable goods for lesser costs. With the knowledge you have gained, feel confident in your interior planning abilities. This confidence is important because you will need to provide reasons for changing things a certain way. So, have confidence when designing your home’s interior and you will receive positive results.

Named after the migrant workers of America's Dust Bowl, these novels convey Blish's "history of the future," a brilliant and bleak look at a world where cities roam the Galaxy looking for work and a sustainable way of life. In the first novel, They Shall Have Stars, man has thoroughly explored the Solar System, yet the dream of going even further seems to have died in all but one man. His battle to realize his dream results in two momentous discoveries -- anti-gravity and the secret of immortality. In A Life for the Stars, it is centuries later and antigravity generations have enabled whole cities to lift off the surface of the earth to become galactic wanderers. In Earthman, Come Home, the nomadic cities revert to barbarism and marauding rogue cities begin to pose a threat to all civilized worlds. An armada of renegade cities attempts to destroy Earth, their ancient birthplace. In the final novel, A Clash of Cymbols (The Triumph of Time), history repeats itself as the cities once again journey back in to space making a terrifying discovery which could destroy the entire Universe. A serious and haunting vision of our world and its limits, Cities in Flight marks the return to print of one of science fiction's masterpieces. Excerpt No excerpt currently exists for this novel.

Behind Jessie Fleming’s quiet facade lies a very bright mind that’s helped her in more than just soccer. Fleming will head to UCLA this fall but first will have the small task of helping get Canada back on to the Olympic podium. She turned 18 years old in March and after the goal she just scored as Canada beat China 1-0 in a closed-door friendly in France on Wednesday, Fleming has made her case to be one of the players who could step to a new level in Rio. Scroll to continue with content Ad “I just got into the 18 (yard-box), took my touch and just finished top corner,” Fleming said in a Canadian Soccer Association video of her lovely goal. Surrounded by defenders, she still managed a sublime finish from the penalty spot. “I saw a little bit of space and I guess I just cut it past one player and had a quick second so I took my chance.” That’s what sets Fleming apart from her peers. She’s already got a tremendous touch on the ball to go along with the vision that’s another level, but it’s her ability to make quick decisions is what makes her a player of tremendous potential. Story continues Canada is going to need players to step forward to supplement the likes of Sinclair, Schmidt and Matheson if they have any chance of upsetting the higher-ranked teams they’ll face in most of their games at the Olympics. She may be young but Fleming already has that expectation placed upon her. Ricketts the latest MNT player to come home When Canada assembles for its next national team camp at the end of August, many of the players won’t have to travel as far as in the past. Canada's Tosaint Ricketts (C) fights for the ball with El Salvadr's Juan Barahona and Henry Romero during their 2018 World Cup qualifying soccer match in San Salvador, El Salvador, Nov. 17, 2015. REUTERS/Jose Cabezas As veteran Canadian internationals are willing to come back and play in their home country Canadian clubs are willing to sign them. Tosaint Ricketts' signing with Toronto FC earlier this week added to the list of established talent that includes David Edgar, Marcel de Jong, Nik Ledgerwood and Julian de Guzman. With the men’s program gaining more prominence in recent months, Canadian players are more recognizable than in years past and until team academies churn out a steady supply of Canadians that can eat up minutes, bringing back names that have had careers in Europe is a winning situation for clubs, the players and the national team. Canada will likely assemble in Florida (Orlando has been the preferred choice in recent camps) at the end of next month before making the trip to San Pedro Sula, Honduras. For many years, players would assemble from all over the globe and hope chemistry could quickly return but with players in Canada, they’ll have less travel and will come in with experience playing together. New injury sidelines Doneil Henry In the 18 months since joining West Ham United of the English Premier League, Doneil Henry has yet to see the field in an EPL game but has seen plenty of the training table – and he’s about to spend more time on it. The club announced Friday that Henry will be sidelined for up to two months with a knee ligament injury picked up in a preseason friendly against the NASL’s Carolina Railhawks. Since moving to London from Toronto FC in January 2015, Henry has only seen competitive action for West Ham in a Europa Cup game. He did have a pair of loan deals to Blackburn Rovers in the Championship and start with a few good performances but then was sidelined by a long-term hamstring injury. The injury will likely sideline Henry from the two World Cup qualifiers in September and will leave Canada looking for a starting right back. Despite some critics who said Henry wasn’t a fit at right back, Benito Floro had trusted the big defender - but now will likely need another option. Hutchinson with Besiktas in Austria As the unsuccessful coup unfolded in Turkey, Canada’s best soccer player was watching it all unfold in Istanbul, the nation’s largest city. Atiba Hutchinson, an invaluable member of a Besiktas team that won the Turkish League and qualified for the Champions League, was a few days away from heading to Austria with his club for preseason matches. On the night of the coup, he confirmed to Yahoo Canada Sports that he was safe and it was obviously a nervous time. German international Mario Gomez has left the club due to the political instability but for now, Hutchinson is still with the club as Besiktas plays Italian side Udinese in a friendly on Sunday. It begins its title defence next month.

Refuting The Argument That The Quran Is Complete; Therefore, We Don't Need Hadith by Bassam Zawadi Quranites usually point to the verses of the Quran which state that the Quran is fully detailed and clear and that there is nothing left out of the Quran. Therefore, they ask the question, "Why do we need the Hadith?" The Quran is clear in saying that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is here to explain and teach us the Glorious Quran as we have previously demonstrated here . So does that mean that the Quran is wrong when it says that it is clear and explains all things? There is a fallacy in reasoning going on here. Let me give an example. Professor X says to his students that in order to know everything for the exam they must read textbook A. The Professor says that textbook A is clear, fully detailed and enough to pass the test. However, you must do everything that textbook A commands you to do. When students read textbook A they find out that textbook A says that textbook B clarifies and explains in better detail textbook A. So what should the students do? They should read textbook B of course because text book A is CLEARLY stating that textbook B should be referred to. Textbook A clearly explains to the students that textbook B should be referred to. Similarly the Quran, which is fully detailed and clear, clearly states that we should refer to the Prophet. How do we refer to the Prophet? Through the authentic hadith of course! Dr. Ahmad Shafaat says... b. And We have sent down unto you (O Prophet) the book explaining (tibyanan) everything and as a guidance, and mercy, and glad tidings for those who have surrendered (to God) (16:89). Here the words "explaining everything" are said to show that we need no source of guidance other than the Qur'an. Once again we should not abandon the use of `aql (reason) and fikr (reflection) in interpreting any verse, since the Qur'an itself tells us to use these. Now `aql and fikr immediately tell us that we cannot take this verse in an absolute sense. For we would then have to take "everything" literally. But that is obviously impossible, since there are clearly things that the Qur'an does not explain; for example, the rules of Chinese grammar or the way to fix your computer. Thus common sense requires that we qualify "everything" as something like "everything that is relevant to religion, spirituality, and morality". Reason further requires us to bring another element in the understanding of this verse and that is that many statements in a text have a context both within the text as a whole and in the circumstances in which the statements were made. This is why we find it easier to understand books written in our own time and in the society in which we live than those written in a different time and place: in the former case we know not only the context within the books themselves but also the context provided by external circumstances; whereas in the latter case we know the context within the books but we have much less knowledge of the external context. Now the Qur'an no doubt rises as far above its context as it is possible for a book written in a human language to do, but still it has both types of contexts. Hence the Qur'an explains everything only when its verses are interpreted by taking into account both the context within the book as a whole as well as the context of circumstances, practices, and events that are assumed in those statements. Now this latter context is provided partly by the Hadith. If the above verse does not support the Qur'an-only position, it also does not fully agree with the traditionalist point of view. For, the verse clearly shows that the Qur'an views itself far more complete and self-sufficient than the traditionalist Muslims are inclined to think. In the light of this verse it is difficult to view Hadith as a second primary or independent source of guidance/law. It can only be regarded as a secondary source. This conclusion will find further support as we proceed with our study, especially in this part and Part II. c. There is no animal in the earth nor a flying creature with two wings but they form communities like you. We have neglected nothing in the book. Then unto their Lord they will be gathered (6:38) The words "We have neglected nothing in the book (al-kitab)" are used by the Qur'an-only people to conclude that everything is found in the Qur'an and hence there is no need for the Hadith. But in the Qur'an the book is not always the Qur'an. Sometimes it is a heavenly book where everything that happens or exists is written down. Thus a little later in the same surah it is said: "There is not a grain (buried) in the dark depths of the earth nor anything fresh or dry but is inscribed in a manifest book" (6:59). In other verses we read: "And there is no moving (i.e. living) creature on earth but sustenance thereof is dependent on God. He knows its habitation and its repository. All is in a manifest book (kitab)" (11:6). "And the book (al-kitab) will be displayed and you (O man or Prophet) see the sinful in great terror because of what is in it (the book) and they will say, Woe to us, what a book is this! It leaves nothing small or great, but takes account thereof" (18:6). But even if we take the words "We have neglected nothing in the book" to refer to the Qur'an, they would have to be understood like the words "the book explaining (tibyanan) everything" in the verse discussed earlier. d. And We have indeed coined for humanity every kind of similitude (mathal) in this Qur'an that they may reflect (39:27; see also 17:89, 18:54, 30:58). Again, this statement should be understood in the same way as the statement that the Qur'an explains everything. e. Shall I seek other than God as judge when it is he who has sent down unto you the book well explained (mufassalan)? ... The word of your Lord (O Prophet) reaches perfection in truth and justice. There is none to change his words. He is the hearer, the knower (6:114-115). A book whose revelatory statements (ayat) have been firmly formulated (uhkimat) and then explained (fussilat) by One wise and informed (11:1). The word mufassal in 6:114-115 is understood by the Qur'an-only sect to mean "fully detailed" and with this understanding they deduce from the passage that the Qur'an is complete and perfect and therefore does not need Sunnah or Hadith in any way. But neither the statement that the Qur'an explains its verses nor the statement that the word of God is perfect in truth and justice can mean that the external context provided by the Hadith is not relevant in understanding, interpreting and applying the book of God. Thus even the verses most favorable to the Qur'an-only people do not support their contention, or at least do not oblige us to accept their position. But now we show that there are many passages in the Qur'an which clearly do oblige us to conclude the opposite. To begin with, if it were just a matter of delivering a book, God could have used other ways to achieve this. The book could have fallen from heaven or an angel could have brought it to the people. Or, the Qur'an could have been miraculously written down on tablets of stone or tablets of gold and then carried by someone to the people (as said to be the case with the ten commandments and the Book of Mormons). The unbelievers actually raised such possibilities: The people of the book ask you that you cause a book to descend from heaven ... (4:153) Had we sent down to you writing upon parchment so that they could feel it with their hands, the unbelievers would have said, This is nothing but mere magic. They say, Why has an angel not been sent down unto him? ... (6:8-9, see also17:94-95) But God did not follow any such mechanical method. Instead he revealed the Qur'an through the heart of the messenger, stressing that a messenger sent to human beings has to be a human being (2:97, 26:194, 42:24). Clearly, then it was not simply a question of delivering a book but the human heart and the person of the messenger also plays an important part in the process of delivery. There are other verses showing that the Prophet's involvement in his work as the messenger was much deeper than that of a mere deliveryman. The Qur'an says: Have We not opened your breast (O Prophet). And lifted from you the burden that was weighing down your back (94:1-3). From these verses it becomes clear that a great deal happened within the soul of the Prophet before he embarked on his mission. Simply conveying a message as a postman need not have involved such inner back-breaking struggles. (Dr. Ahmad Shafaat, The Sacred Hadith Project, Chapter 2: The Message and the Messenger, Source ) Taqi Usmani says... Does the Holy Qur'ân Need Explanation? Before concluding this discussion, it is pertinent to answer a question often raised with reference to the explanation of the Holy Qur'ân. The question is whether the Holy Qur'ân needs anyone to explain its contents? The Holy Qur'ân in certain places seems to claim that its verses are self-explanatory, easy to understand and clear in their meanings. So, any external explanation should be uncalled for. Why, then, is the prophetic explanation so much stressed upon? The answer to this question is found in the Holy Qur'ân itself. A combined study of the relevant verses reveals that the Holy Qur'ân deals with two different types of subjects. One is concerned with the general statements about the simple realities, and it includes the historic events relating to the former prophets and their nations, the statement of Allâh's bounties on mankind, the creation of the heavens and the earth, the cosmological signs of the divine power and wisdom, the pleasures of the Paradise and the torture of the Hell, and subjects of similar nature. The other type of subjects consists of the imperatives of Sharî'ah, the provisions of Islâmic law, the details of doctrinal issues, the wisdom of certain injunctions and other academic subjects. The first type of subject, which is termed in the Holy Qur'ân as Zikr (the lesson, the sermon, the advice) is, no doubt, so easy to understand that even an illiterate rustic can benefit from it without having recourse to anyone else. It is in this type of subjects that the Holy Qur'ân says: And surely We have made the Qur'ân easy for Zikr (getting a lesson) so is there anyone to get a lesson? (54:22) The words "for Zikr" (getting a lesson) signify that the easiness of the Holy Qur'ân relates to the subjects of the first nature. The basic thrust of the verse is on getting lesson from the Qur'ân and its being easy for this purpose only. But by no means the proposition can be extended to the inference of legal rules and the interpretation of the legal and doctrinal provisions contained in the Book. Had the interpretation of even this type of subjects been open to everybody irrespective of the volume of his learning, the Holy Qur'ân would have not entrusted the Holy Prophet with the functions of "teaching" and "explaining" the Book. The verses quoted earlier, which introduce the Holy Prophet as the one who "teaches" and "explains" the Holy Qur'ân, are explicit on the point that the Book needs some messenger to teach and interpret it. Regarding the type of verses which require explanation, the Holy Qur'ân itself says, And these similitudes We mention before the people. And nobody understands them except the learned. (29:43) Thus, the "easiness" of the subjects of the first type does not exclude the necessity of a prophet who can explain all the legal and practical implications of the imperatives contained in the Holy Qur'ân.

emoved. Practically speaking there are still technical limitations, but those will lift in the future as we optimize the system. Please note: there is currently no way to create large volumes through the user interface but you can do so through code. API improvements The ColoredCubesVolume class has been split into ColoredCubesVolume and ColoredCubesVolumeData, and a similar split has been made for the TerrainVolume. The idea is to correctly separate responsibilities. ColoredCubesVolume is a component which handles rendering, interaction, etc while ColoredCubesVolumeData is just the data it operates on and can be serialized to an asset (probably… not really tested). More splitting of responsibilities will probably occur in the future. Please look at the code for the examples discussed in the video to see how you should now construct volumes from code. Things that are missing Some functionality may have got lost in the refactor, in particular it is no longer possible to import a colored cubes volume from a stack of images. We plan to bring this back in the future as a separate command line tool so that we can also demonstrate the Cubiqity C API. So if you really need this functionality you might want to hold off upgrading for a while. Download the snapshot You can download the snapshot corresponding to the video with the link below. Just extract the zip file and import the .unitypackage file into Unity. Be aware that it’s still Windows only at the moment. You can also get the latest version of the code directly from our BitBucket page (may be unstable): We hope you enjoy the new system! As always you can ask any questions on our own forum or on our ‘Works in Progress‘ or ‘Assets and Asset Store‘ threads on the Unity3D forums. Do let us know if you have any feedback 🙂

Anti-aGin You no longer have to mix your cocktails with water from the Fountain of Youth to stay young, if bold claims from a new gin are to be believed. Named "Anti-aGin", the spirit was produced by UK hotel group Warner Hotels, together with food designers Bompas & Parr, and has apparently been distilled with pure collagen, along with a variety of "anti-ageing botanicals". "The ingredients were specifically chosen due to their revitalising qualities," Warner Hotels claims, "including healing sun damage, being rich in minerals, inhibiting scar formation and to help smooth cellulite." While I'm all for having a good night out and feeling younger, as well as hungover, it's important to note that no scientific studies have been done into the effectiveness of the gin as an anti-ageing product. In fact, many studies have shown that alcohol can accelerate the ageing of your skin. Still, if you're drinking gin anyway, you may as well give it a shot to see if the years fall off. You can pick it up in Warner's UK hotels, or buy it directly from Drink Supermarket around the world. I'll be doing my own testing to see if the gin works as claimed. For science, of course.

As this story is being written and published, Jon Bernthal is behind the wheel of his pickup truck, bombing clear across the United States from New York City to California. With his two dogs riding shotgun, the 40-year-old actor will drive late into the night, pulling over for a few hours to get some sleep before hitting the road again, in hopes of making the transcontinental journey in just two days. It’ll be a 48-hour or so stretch of silence, those hours asleep not included, but Bernthal is used to silence. To prepare for his role as a battle-scarred, shame-plagued mute in Pilgrimage, an Irish film about medieval holy wars, Bernthal went to totally quiet for the last week of pre-production and the first week of actual filming. The Mute is a monster of a man who did horrible, unforgivable things in the name of the Church while fighting during the Crusades, and his self-imposed punishment is staying quiet while serving at an Irish monastery. When the monks are forced to take to the road to deliver an ancient relic to Rome, he travels with them as their silent security detail. “The first thing I really found out was that when you stop talking, you can’t ask for things. And [the character] is a guy who took this vow of silence really out of shame and regret and remorse because of all the ugly things he had done,” Bernthal told Inverse during an interview before the film’s premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival. “The cast all lived together, in the middle of nowhere, 30 miles from any town, with no access to the outside world, no internet. So to stay silent for all of that, it was very isolating.” The film’s director, Brendan Muldowney, knew that Bernthal going a bit method was unusual, but he had no qualms about his doing so. “That was interesting directing him. His only communication was shrugs or pointing,” the filmmaker told Inverse. “He had said he was going to go the whole film like this, and I was fine with that, whatever it takes.” The process allowed Bernthal to discover how to communicate silently, learn more about his castmates, and take away some important lessons about human nature. “I learned how much time people spend talking, and they’re not really saying anything. They’re just passing time,” he remembered. “They’re disguising what they want a lot of the time through just words.” The verbal silence meant that the physical beatdowns he delivered as the Mute were even more pronounced and spoke far louder than words ever could. But he didn’t just want the character to be an enforcer and felt his vow of silence was making it harder for Muldowney to get his best work on camera. “At a certain point, I felt like I learned what I needed to do, and now I’m just doing it out of personal pride, to say I did it,” he admitted. “I really had to check myself on that. I really started to think it was getting in the way. It was making all the other artists around me work so much harder. Things I did while silent, in reaction, those things aren’t in the script. So Brendan doesn’t know I’m doing it, so I’ve got to hope that while they’re looking somewhere else, he’s going to see that in me — and that’s a tough thing to do in an independent film when you don’t have a lot of time.” Jon Bernthal in 'Pilgrimage' No one will question Bernthal’s passion or commitment, of course. The road trip, he says, is a way to clear his head after going all-in while playing complicated characters. And he always plays complicated characters, none of them more so than the Punisher, the merciless, bloodthirsty anti-hero of the Marvel Universe. INVERSE LOOT DEALS Meet the Pod The first bed that learns the perfect temperature for your sleep, and dynamically warms or cools according to your needs. Buy Now Bernthal just wrapped the first season of the character’s solo TV series, which will air on Netflix later this year. It’ll be his first solo headlining role after a decade of playing deceptively deep tough guys on shows and movies like The Walking Dead, Mob City, Fury, and Daredevil, on which he first appeared as the Punisher. The character is a remorseless, cold-hearted killer on a quest to avenge his slain wife and kids, leaving enough bodies in his wake to make John Wick look like an amateur. And while he is an out-and-out criminal, Frank Castle — the Punisher’s alter-ego — is a man to whom many can relate, including Bernthal himself. “To live with that day in and day out, I wouldn’t be able to play that part if I wasn’t a dad or a husband,” Bernthal told Inverse. “I get it. I get what that love is, and to dive into it. You start asking yourself the question like, ‘What if?’ It’s a very painful place to go but a very easy thing for me to understand and empathize with.” He has to reach deep down to play that role, pushing himself to new emotional extremes. But he’s done similar things before. The 2014 war film Fury in particular, he says, broke him down more than any other role, thanks to director David Ayer’s hardcore attitude. Beneath his mean exterior is a man who is a theater actor at heart, having studied at Harvard and opened his own stage in Brooklyn, before he made the leap to big-budget projects. “He’s an intelligent actor, and has a look that when you look at him, you get a sense of sadness and vulnerability, as well as dangerousness,” Muldowney said. Bernthal prides himself on being heavily involved in the production of the movies in which he acts, and it’s led to the realization that he wants to write and direct as well — and he’s already in the process of making that happen. “I have stories that I really want to tell, that I’m working on, that I really want to get out there,” he said. “I’m developing a couple of things that are very exciting. I have something that I’ve been working on for awhile now. It’s about a little neighborhood in Shreveport, L.A. in the late ‘80s that’s extremely near and dear to my heart. I have a bunch of stories that I really want to tell about Washington, D.C., where I grew up. The real D.C., and the hypocrisy of the real D.C., this forgotten city and forgotten people in such proximity to such power.” But all that will wait for a while; after all, he’s been talking about the Shreveport project since 2014, and his star has exploded since then, with little sign of slowing down. More immediately, he’s got a lot of driving to do, with a friend that’s been by his side since he began his journey as a professional actor. “My one dog, Boss, he’s getting older now — 12 years old — and when I got him, it was before I had ever been a series regular on TV,” he reflected. “There was oftentimes no money at all in my bank account, and there were times I didn’t know where I’d get money to pay for a meal. Boss and I have been on this journey forever, and after every job I’ve done, he jumps in the truck and he looks at me and I look at him and we’re like, another one done, man. There’s something ceremonial about that. I’m a creature of habit, and I don’t know how many more he’s gonna be around for.” Pilgrimage hits theaters and VOD on August 11.

Finn Says Hello…and Goodbye – Tammie Painter Skip to content Search for: Tammie Painter Menu Welcome FREE Story! Books The Cassie Black Trilogy The Circus of Unusual Creatures Day Sixteen The Osteria Chronicles Domna Short Stories 13th Hour Where to Buy Shop Blog About Who Am I? Contact Legal Blah Blah November 3, 2018 TammiePainter Around the World, Finn McSpool, The Writing Life, Travel Finn Says Hello…and Goodbye Here’s the deal. I had plans to finish out the last few days of my Irish Adventure with Finn McSpool (I love that autocorrect now recognizes “McSpool”!) over the next couple weeks and then continue on with my regular Saturday Finn-filled posts. But plans are changing. Don’t worry, I’ve already got some pics loaded so any Finn-atics out there will get their weekly dose of monster, but enjoy that dose because it will be the last for a while. The problem is that my blog stats are WAY down. As in down to the same levels they were when I was barely posting once a week a few years ago. I have more followers than ever, but the traffic on my blog is something akin to those car commercials where a driver is zipping through a mountain pass with no other cars in sight. I’m completely unsure why after three years in a row of rising numbers, my stats have changed. I’ve altered little in my posting frequency or my post topics and have tried to keep up with liking and commenting on other blogs. But alas… Basically, I feel like I’m wasting my time here. While my Wednesday writing posts don’t take me too long, the photo- and research-laden Finn posts eat up at least an hour of my time. I didn’t begrudge (my fancy word for the day) that hour+ when readers were streaming in to see what Finn was up to, but when I can count the number of blog visits on the fingers of my right hand, that hour+ just isn’t worth it. That’s not to say my writing posts are doing stellar. They’re not, but I’ve committed (or is that “should be committed”?) to posting a weekly chapter of my upcoming novel Domna and I plan to stick to that commitment. After the chapters are done, well, I don’t know. I have some ideas of how to go forward with the blog if I do go forward with it, but there is a strong temptation to only use this blog for the occasional announcement. Sorry if this sounds whiny. I’m totally not whining in my head as I type this, but am instead putting on my Business Hat and using that hat to evaluate the best use of my time. Over the past few weeks, Business Hat (an uptight cousin of the Sorting Hat) has told me the Saturday posts are not a valuable investment of my time….and the Wednesday posts might not be either. But Finn-atics shouldn’t despair. He’ll still be hanging around with me on Instagram and Twitter, so if you haven’t already, you might want to follow me him over on those channels. And I’m sure he’ll make a cameo on here now and again because, you know, Finn. Finn-induced eye roll! And for those of you who do come around looking for my writing updates, THANK YOU! Like I mentioned above, the chapters of Domna will still be posted on a weekly basis, but you’ll be far better served by signing up for my newsletter (which also includes the occasional Finn photo and you get free books just for signing up). As promised a few months ago, I intend to shift my focus more toward getting cozy with my mailing list and less cozy with my blog. I guess the blog gods are pushing me toward keeping that promise! Blah, enough of this soul-bearing, let’s get on with some Finn-fun…. Our second-to-last day in Dublin was spent on a looooong walk through Dublin’s major parks: Iveagh Gardens, St. Stephen’s Green, and Merrion Square. Famine Memorial at St Stephen’s Green Wolfe Tone at St Stepehn’s Green Somewhere amongst all this “parking” we slipped into the National Gallery to see some art and, well, let’s be honest, visit the loo. After all, I drink a lot of tea and there’s a reason why “tea” rhymes with “pee.” Besides the toilets, there was a painting I really wanted to see: “The Meeting on the Turret Stairs” by Frederic William Burton. There’s just something so desperately passionate about this scene that I’ve always loved it. So we made a beeline to Room 20 where it’s supposed to live. Then Room 21. Then Room 19. Back to Room 20. Huh???? Yes, of course, the painting was on loan to another museum. I swear, If I find out it was to the Museum of Sheeran, I will scream! At least they had a postcard of it. After a wander and a gander at the art, it was back to the parks because I promised Finn he could get his picture taken with a famous Oscar. He was a little disappointed when he found out it wasn’t Oscar the Grouch, but Oscar Wilde will do. Then (yes, our legs were very tired at this point) it was off to the National Museum of Ireland – Archaeology which features more bling than a Tiffany’s. Seriously, you could go blind from all the gold on display. Unfortunately, this was another one of those vacation times when I had gotten photo weary, so hopefully this will give you an idea of what it was like….. SMAUG!!!! or maybe this… Oh, that Scrooge McDuck! As for our final day in Dublin, we were given another personal walking tour of the city by Helen of Crawcrafts Beasties beginning with our last Irish breakfast. Oh, cholesterol, how I’ll miss you… Then, it was up at 2 a.m.(ugh) on Tuesday to make a late-night/early-morning (depending on which side of the pint glass you’re on) stroll through Temple Bar to catch our bus to the airport. Finally, like these Saturday posts, we were saying goodbye…or perhaps, see you later. Dear future generations, this is what the area of the Arctic Circle used to look like. Thanks to everyone who has smiled and liked Finn over the past couple years! I’ve appreciated every single one of your likes and comments.

Newsletter & Blog PHILIPCHALK & ASSOCIATES CPA'S Home Services Contact Newsletters & Blog Newsletters & Blog Tax and Accounting Issues that Matter to Small Businesses and Individuals Property in Vancouver 6/21/2018 Everyone's favourite dinner conversation - Real Estate! Many people have made a lot of money in real estate buying, selling, flipping etc. Maybe you're now being taxed half to death, so you are debating between moving or converting part of your house to a rental suite. Vancouver and the surrounding areas are encouraging density, so many lots are now zoned for laneway homes. Vancouver has restrictions on short-term rentals for laneway homes, so its important to be aware of what is allowed, and what isn't. To curb speculation and discourage empty houses, there have been rules put in place to tax empty homes. If you have been in a coma for the past few years, things have changed dramatically in all manners relating to real estate in Vancouver, and its time to get up to speed. With the increases in property value in real estate, now all levels of government are attempting to take their share of the pie. This post will discuss some of the relatively recent changes that affect real estate. First let's talk about the federal requirement to report the sale of your principal residence (PR). Starting in 2016, Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) started requiring taxpayers to report the sale of their principal residence. In the past, you only had to report the sale of your PR if the property was not your PR for all of the years you owned it. Not reporting this opens you up to a possible fine. This is an example of the increased tracking of the sales of homes that is taking place at the federal level. What are they looking for? CRA is looking for people that are abusing the principal residence exemption. If you sold your principal residence, make sure it is reported on your tax return. If you forgot to report it, in most cases CRA allows a taxpayer to report it under a voluntary disclosure. Empty home tax (City of Vancouver) - this is a 1% tax levied by the City of Vancouver (COV) on the property's assessed value if the home is empty by the city's definition. Per the COV's website, most homes will not be subject to the tax, as it does not apply to principal residences or homes rented for at least six months of the year; however all homeowners are required to submit a declaration. To get out of the tax, the property has to be rented for at least 6 months during the year in 30 day increments (short-term rentals won't help). Another way is to have a friend or family member move in for at least 6 months and claim it as their principal residence. There are exemptions, such as if the house was empty due to the owner passing away and the house went into the estate. If you have an empty home, or your home is going to be vacant in the future, make sure you know the rules. 1% on an average detached home in Vancouver would be $22,000 according to a recent report (2,200,000 x 1%). Speculator tax - this is a provincial level tax, that is applicable in certain areas around the province of BC, such as Metro Vancouver, Kelowna, Victoria. The rates that apply are gradually going to increase from 2018 to 2019. Who does it apply to? It applies to second homes, so primary residences are not subject to this tax. What about rentals? Long-term rentals qualify for an exemption. For 2018, homes must be rented out for at least 3 months to qualify for the exemption. In 2019, that goes up to 6 months. What rate is the tax? In 2018, the tax rate is 0.5% of the property's assessed value. In 2019, it will stay 0.5% for BC residents who are Canadian Citizens or Permanent Residents. It will go up to 1% for Canadians and Permanent Residents who are not BC residents. The tax will be 2% for "foreign investors and satellite families." Is there a tax credit available? There is a tax credit available for B.C. residents. If the second house is $400,000 or less, the credit will offset any tax. Foreign buyer's tax - this is an additional property transfer tax that is charged when a foreign entity or taxable trustee purchases a property within a specified area of BC. The tax has recently been increased from 15% to 20% and the specified area has been expanded from the GVRD to include the Capital District, the Fraser Valley, the Central Okanagan, and Nanaimo. Purchases before Feb 21, 2018 in the GVRD were subject to the 15% additional tax. Purchases on or after Feb 21, 2018 in the expanded areas are subject to a 20% tax. In a future post, we'll discuss what happens when change part or all of your principal residence to an income producing property, or vice versa. Just a quick note on the "change in use" rules - make sure you communicate to your accountant that you've made a change in use if you've changed your principal residence to a rental property, or changed a rental property into a principal residence. There is a deemed disposition and re-acquisition that has tax consequences, and there are elections that could help minimize the tax consequences. If you have any questions about the above, or any other related tax matters, please give our office a call. -Josh Is your business Ready for Cloud accounting? 6/5/2018 7 Comments Moving your accounting function to the cloud can be a daunting task. In this article, we'll take a brief look at the history, look at how it works, and look at the pros and cons of moving your accounting to a cloud-based software solution, and hopefully you'll have an idea of whether your business is ready. First, how new is this type of software? Quickbooks Online was introduced in the UK in 2011. It was revamped in 2013, and has grown in popularity to become one of the most used cloud-based accounting software solutions for small businesses. Another popular cloud-based company is Xero. Xero was formed in 2006 in New Zealand, and entered the U.S. market in 2011. Xero officially entered the Canadian market in 2018, although it has been unofficially around for longer than that. Second, what exactly does the process entail? A typical scenario would be for a business owner to have an app on their phone (like Receipt Bank) and take a picture of a receipt that they just purchased, for example, gas from Chevron. The receipt would be stored in Receipt Bank and the software would recognize the type of receipt (with a high degree of accuracy). The App would be connected to your Accounting Software (QBO or Xero, for example), and would post the receipt to the appropriate expense account (after you told it what the expense was, it would remember that Chevron is for Auto-Gas). At the outset, it would require you to tell the App what the expense was, but after that, the App would know, and would post automatically. You could see how much time this could save if used properly. You could also see how this could go wrong, if it was not set up properly! Pros - real time accounting - audit-ready receipts (stored and ready if CRA requests them) - financial information that is more timely - accessible from anywhere there is an internet connection - allows business owners to make decisions in real-time to correct course before things become costly - potentially cost savings by using data import function by using latest software To me, the biggest pro I see in this list is having access from anywhere, to your accounting data in real-time. Of course, this will mean having your accountant or bookkeeper stay on top of your accounting throughout the year, and not doing it all right before your company's filing deadline! Cons - increase software subscription fees (can typically be mitigated by bundling with your accountant's plan) - security concerns (where is your info being hosted?) - internet connectivity concerns (could be an issue in remote areas if internet is not consistent) - learning curve with new software/apps Most of these can be overcome, but Cloud-based accounting is not for everyone (at least, not yet).

[np_storybar title=”Live results: A riding-by-riding breakdown” link=”http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/canadian-politics/canadian-election-results-2015-a-live-riding-by-riding-breakdown-of-the-vote”%5D Justin Trudeau’s Liberals’ powerful election victory shows that the environmental left’s message remains on the political fringe — even if it does mean a more cautious federal approach to energy development in Canada. The anti-energy movement’s failure to translate opposition to oil pipelines, tankers and oilsands development into political support is apparent in British Columbia, where the Liberals dominated Metro Vancouver, the Green party failed to build on Elizabeth May’s single seat in Saanich-Gulf Islands, and the NDP’s early lead collapsed despite efforts by politically active groups like Dogwood Initiative to turn the election into a referendum on oil pipelines and tankers. The Liberals even scooped the new riding of Burnaby North-Seymour, a closely watched race where political newcomer Terry Beech, a small-business owner, defeated by a wide margin the NDP’s star candidate, Carol Baird Ellan, a former chief judge of the Provincial Court of British Columbia who was endorsed by activists opposed to the expansion of the TransMountain pipeline. The Greens scraped out just five per cent support for Simon Fraser University professor Lynne Quarmby, who was involved in the Burnaby Mountain protests against the Kinder Morgan project. The riding straddles Burrard Inlet, where TransMountain’s pipeline terminal is located, and where oil tankers sail by. “Maybe Burnaby North-Seymour was a referendum (on energy) after all — one in which the alarmist tanker safety views of some candidates were contrasted with a Conservative approach that seemed too soft on the proponent, and voters chose a middle path,” said Stewart Muir, executive director of Vancouver-based energy research organization Resource Works, in an analysis of election results. In an interview, Muir said the bellwether riding demonstrated that British Columbians want a balance between the economy and the environment. While the Conservatives failed to successfully promote that, voters did not flip to an anti-oil party but chose one that would strike the balance better, he said. The Liberals took 17 seats in B.C, gaining 15 from 2011; the NDP ended with 14, up 2; the Conservatives held on to 10, down from 21. [np_widget id=”101″ /] The anti-energy vote also failed to build in Alberta, where the federal NDP kept its single seat and did not benefit from May’s historic win by the provincial NDP under Rachel Notley. Her government has been pursuing an aggressive environmental agenda at a time of energy industry distress. In contrast, the Liberals won four seats, including two in Calgary, which last elected a Liberal MP in 1968. Trudeau’s majority win means a second wave of political change for Alberta after the provincial NDP defeated the long governing provincial Tories. Harper’s loss and leadership resignation means the province has lost influence in Ottawa, but Trudeau seems eager to do what is right for its energy sector. He has given qualified support to the Keystone XL, Energy East and Kinder Morgan’s TransMountain pipeline projects, though he also plans to bring in tougher environmental review processes and a national plan to tackle greenhouse gases. He is opposed to the Northern Gateway project. Michal Moore, professor of energy economics at the University of Calgary’s School of Public Policy, said there is a bright side to Trudeau’s win for the energy industry, which has been struggling to get important pipelines built, something frequently blamed on Harper’s slow progress on climate change policy. “There is every reason for a Trudeau-led government to want to find a successful and resilient rebirth of the energy industry, and that is probably going to be one that has more carbon responsibilities,” Moore said. “The issue of carbon control is going to turn out to be such a global market issue that, even if you don’t believe in it, you won’t be able to sell your stuff at a competitive price until those concerns are met.” During the campaign, the Liberal position was “Canada needs new infrastructure, including pipelines, to move our energy resources to domestic and global markets. However these projects must earn the trust of local communities, respect Indigenous rights, and cannot put our lands and waters at risk.” The party also said the Conservatives’ “polarizing approach to resource development and pipelines has hurt rather than enhanced Canada’s ability to get resources to market.” Trudeau’s pro-Keystone stance won’t please Washington., where President Obama is expected to reject the project now that the Canadian election is out of the way. But U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Tuesday Canada’s change in government won’t change the outcome. “The decision on Keystone is being based on the merits and on the countervailing balance of all the input that has come from a very exhaustive agency review. I have said again and again I want to get that done as fast as possible, and that is very true. I want to get it done,” he said Tuesday at the Climate and Clean Energy Investment Forum in Washington, D.C. With Obama’s term in office ending next year, Trudeau has more time on his side and fresh support for Keystone could still emerge under a new U.S. administration. With Harper out, the Liberals have a chance to try showing that gentler face of Canada’s energy sector and keep hardliners at bay. That’s assuming they haven’t underestimated the complexities of pipeline politics — and are genuinely willing to do the hard work required to get them back on track.

About Bruce Voyce Bruce Voyce sculptures Home Artist Statement Contact CV Public Art Artist Statement Bruce Voyce Artist Statement I feel that art has transformative power; It can open our minds and hearts. Public art can shape our shared spaces into places of inspiration and connection. By exploring the interface between nature and humanity, I am creating artwork that celebrates life. With each project I am pursuing the realization of the public imagination by changing a passing moment into something mysterious and beautiful. Through an evolving exploration of materials, hybrid forms are created that are simultaneously natural and artificial. These sculptures read in a way that is familiar and enigmatic, there is a step beyond self-expression, towards illuminating our physical consciousness. Sculpture can interconnect the realms of art, science, nature and humanity. Public art can act as a unified gesture of permanence. Nature gently reclaims technology; the landscape is integrated with the art, and the art with the land. With these principles in mind, the environment becomes a theatre, creating a world of possibilities and wonder. Arts have been integral throughout my life. Later public art became my guiding force. I studied art in Florence and Pietrasanta Italy, these are inspired places where art defines the public spaces and connects us through time. At Capilano University independent studies allowed me to develop processes for creating large scale artwork. Since 2005 my public art has animated public spaces as far away as Japan. Each project is an exploration of history, culture, form and public engagement. Each work of art speaks of craftsmanship and a unique vision. Art, science, nature and technology, history and mythology all have influence in my process and these influences mingle within the artwork. I feel that connecting these disparate fields is important for human progress. I have a strong belief in the transformative power of public art. It is clear to me that this artwork not only defines our public spaces, but our shared values and future.

Quilty Habit: Welcome, Fat Quarter Shop + Giveaway! Pages Home About Portfolio Classes & Lectures Community Friday, February 12, 2016 Welcome, Fat Quarter Shop + Giveaway! *Giveaway closed - congrats to the winner, Annette!* I'm excited to announce that the Fat Quarter Shop is my newest blog sponsor! I only partner up with shops and companies that have proven their worth to me, and FQS has done that and more - especially with their commitment to developing the online quilting community. I've always been impressed with FQS's fast shipping, wide selection (the latest and greatest in fabric), and professional, friendly YouTube tutorial videos (seriously, have you seen them?). They also spread the love for fabric and free tutorials by involving bloggers. This partnership is exciting to me because I also feel so passionate about the quilting community. Thank you, Fat Quarter Shop, for seeking me out! My current fabric picks: I'll start with Blueberry Park by Karen Lewis Textiles/Robert Kaufman, since it's so scintillating in all different Kona colors. Here is one of my favorites (unsurprisingly, purple). Have you hear about Cozy Cotton Flannel by Robert Kaufman? I hadn't until I recently browsed through FQS's always-exciting Coming Soon section. I LOVE using high-quality flannel for backings, and I can't wait to try this one out (Hot Pink Apple Peel). Looks like orange peels to me. And I love orange peels. P.S. I always love the graphics that FQS uses to show all of a fabric line - so clear and easy to see everything. See what I mean? Finally, can I just say how much I always love Carolyn Friedlander's fabric? This Carkai half yard bundle is looking miiiiighty fine. It would also look even finer in my quilts and stash. ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ To celebrate our new partnership, the Fat Quarter Shop is giving away a $25 gift certificate to their shop!

Mack Brock Covered EP Available March 22 {Pre-Order Today!} #MBCoveredEP #FlyBy — A Modern Day Fairy Tale Pages home _Bible Journaling _Recipes _Beauty _Crafts Bookish Things _Book Reviews _Author Interviews Giveaways PR Statement & Advertising search A Modern Day Fairy Tale Faith. Family. Fiction. Fun. 08 Mar 19 Uncategorised Mack Brock Covered EP Available March 22 {Pre-Order Today!} #MBCoveredEP #FlyBy “Disclosure (in accordance with the FTC’s 16 CFR, Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising”): Many thanks to Propeller Consulting, LLC for providing the product/product information. Opinions are 100% my own and NOT influenced by monetary compensation. I did/will receive a sample of the product in exchange for this review and post. Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Most of us know these words from Philippians 4:8 very well, don't we? But the real question is not whether we know those words, but how we live them in our day to day life. Let's be honest, that can be quite hard these days. Never mind the hardships and bad news we are bombarded with on a daily basis, but the TV shows, movies and music are so often filled with messages and language that is far from 'praiseworthy'. While I certainly love a wide variety of music in all genres, I do find myself being mostly drawn to Christian music for that very reason. Not only can I feel comfortable in allowing my children to listen without fear of messages they need not hear (even though they may be too young to realize what those messages actually are), but there is something that changes in our perspective when we surround ourselves with positive words. It draws us nearer to God, much like a form of prayer for so many of us. Yes, there is certainly something to be said about surrounding our life with these things worthy of praise. For this reason, I am always looking to add great new music to my collection. Today, I'm excited to announce an all new EP from Mack Brock, 'Covered'. About the Artist: Mack Brock's greatest passion is to lad people into a heightened awareness of the presence of God and to see individuals experience the breakthrough God has for them through worship. He has been a worship leader for over 15 years and co-wrote 'O Come To the Altar', 'Resurrecting', 'Here As In Heaven', and 'Do It Again'- each have had a significant impact on the church worldwide.

Jewish Wedding in Paros • Michael Salis Photography MENU HOME ABOUT PORTFOLIO WEDDING BAPTISM ARCHITECTURAL BLOG CONTACT CLIENTS Jewish Wedding in Paros It is always a great pleasure to receive a request from a partner that you have worked with in the past, especially if the previous collaboration was a pleasant and fruitful experience for all the parts involved. When the wedding planner Cristy Lagiou contacted me for this small symbolic wedding in Paros, I was delighted to have the opportunity to work with her again since I was sure that everything would run smoothly and in a relaxed manner throughout the wedding day. Although this is a subject for another post, I will briefly say that a wedding planner can be of invaluable help for the photographer and of course the couple, but I have also experienced the case where he or she can be a hindrance and a distraction for the professional. These are rare case where the wedding planner puts more emphasis and importance in showcasing his work rather than making everything easy for the couple and their guests. Although I understand and appreciate the professional ‘s need for promoting their business, it is crucial to remember that first comes the couple, this is who must me happy at the end of the day. This happiness will ensure the success and longevity of the business in the future. Back to this memorable small symbolic wedding in Paros, I met Natalie and Paul a few days before the wedding and I instantly realised that this would be a fun wedding and a joy to photograph. They are both easy going and relaxed, fun to work with, in love and lucky enough to already have a gorgeous baby daughter in their lives. They both got ready in Boudari Hotel near Drios and the intimate symbolic wedding took place right in front of the hotel and next to the sea, in a beautiful ceremony area prepared by Christy and her associates. Soon after, everyone enjoyed a drink and wished and hugged and kissed the newly weds under the setting sun and took their seats in the long wedding table by the pool. The relaxed and joyful atmosphere continued through the rest of the evening and the wedding day ended with loud music and partying till late!

GEELONG veteran James Kelly is expected to be released from hospital soon after surgery to repair his ruptured testicle was deemed successful. Kelly suffered the unusual injury when he landed heavily after marking in the third quarter of the Cats' win over Richmond at the MCG. The 31-year-old, three-time premiership player was promptly substituted out of the game and taken to hospital in an ambulance. Geelong's general manager of football Steve Hocking, who suffered a similar injury while playing for the Cats in the 1989 grand final, revealed on Sunday morning that the operation at Melbourne's Epworth Hospital had gone well. Five talking points: Richmond v Geelong "It was obviously a very painful injury for James and the doctors made the decision to surgically repair the testicle last night," Hocking told the club website. "All reports from the surgeon was that the operation was successful and now we will continue to monitor James over the coming days. Right now James' comfort and wellbeing is our sole focus." Selwood finds a way to to hurt the Tigers Watch: Chris Scott's full media conference Well... the right pill has seen better days. All good now thanks to the people at the Epworth. Thank you 4 all the ball jokes & well wishes — James Kelly (@JamesPopsKelly) May 3, 2015 The injury was one of the few drawbacks in Geelong's nine-point win over a fast-finishing Richmond, just their second victory this season. The Cats led by 32 points midway through the final term before the Tigers made a late but futile dash for victory. The win leaves Geelong better placed at 2-3 after five rounds, and it was the influence of its key position players at both ends of the ground that did plenty of damage. In attack Tom Hawkins kicked three goals but set up plenty of other opportunities with deft touches and handballs, while the defensive trio of Harry Taylor, Jared Rivers and Tom Lonergan proved difficult for the Tigers to counter. Scott said after the club's difficult start to the year – it has lost to premiership contenders Fremantle, Hawthorn and North Melbourne – he expected his side to improve. He acknowledged the Geelong team is not the same one that has won three premierships in its golden era, but was confident about what lies ahead. Watch: Tom Hawkins terrorises the Tigers "[After] the first month or so of footy, we're behind some of the best teams, there's no doubt. But I'm not even exactly sure who some of the best teams are going to be at the end of the season," Scott said. "We know Hawthorn, Port Adelaide, Sydney and Freo are good sides, but I reckon there's a big bunch of them behind them coming at them, and you can probably throw North into that mix as well. I'm not sure where we sit, but that's the exciting part. "There's less certainty when you go to watch the Cats play, and we're working to give (our supporters) a little more certainty. It's different, but we're on a course that we're pretty confident in. But we're well aware of how good the competition is." Scott praised the game of midfielder Mitch Duncan, who starred with 29 disposals and two goals, and conceded the Cats may have "erred" in pushing him out of midfield roles in recent weeks. Forward Mitch Clark, who missed the clash with a sore foot, is likely to return for the Cats for next Friday night's match against Collingwood.

Infowars' Alex Jones has lost a custody over his three kids with ex-wife Kelly Jones in a case where the fiery conspiracy theorist's attorney argued that he is only "playing a character" on his show. The Travis County, Texas, jury was comprised of 12 jurors. Ten agreed with the verdict on Thursday, which means Kelly Jones will get the best of custody rights. Alex will still have visition rights but with their children, ages 9, 12 and 14, with the exact plan yet to be ironed out. Alex Jones' ex-wife described him as a "violent, cruel and abusive man" who is "enraged and out of control most of the time," according to the Austin-American Statesman. In the lobby, after the verdict, Kelly Jones said "I'm so blessed," referring to her support base and family. Here's video of Kelly Jones here in the lobby post verdict pic.twitter.com/w81jfvMKbE — Charlie Warzel (@cwarzel) April 28, 2017 As host of Infowars, Alex Jones has perpetuated such conspiracy theories as "Pizzagate," which ties Hillary Clinton to a child sex ring, and consistently condemns the mainstream media. In a somewhat ironic turn of events, last week Jones urged the media to be "respectful and responsible" during the trial. Jones' attorney Randall Wilhite said he is "a performance artist" and during the trial, Alex Jones' legal team tried to convey Kelly Jones as being emotionally unstable. Jones is having a pretty rough week, considering he was also sued by Greek Yogurt producer Chobani for suggesting the company was complicit in sexual assault involving children.

HARDCORE rave music will outlast everything else in the universe, scientists have proved. Researchers at the Institute for Studies tested the permanence of hardcore by putting a ‘tape pack’ from 90s rave party Fantazia into a particle accelerator. Professor Henry Brubaker said: “Physicists agree that the universe, and time as we know it, will eventually come to an end. However, hardcore will never, and can never, die. “Our experiments have demonstrated that the music of DJs like Seduction, Slipmatt, Vibes and Easygroove is immune to the rules that bind everything else in existence. “It appears that hardcore – by which I mean jungle, happy hardcore and various types of techno – is made of special particles that reverberate at a unique frequency. Although we do not understand how or why this is possible. “Effectively what I’m saying is, hardcore is mental. “When the universe eventually implodes, there will still be hardcore, just banging away in the void. “No ravers though.” Professor Stephen Hawking said: “Hardcore will never die? We already knew that. “I said it myself last week while listening to the seminal ‘Grooverider at Biology ’91’ mix tape.”

Want to protest the Senate Republicans’ health care bill, but don’t know how? After you call your senator and attend a local town hall meeting, you can now also send your Congressperson a vibrator. Yep, you read that correctly: You can now send your Congressperson a vibrator to protest the health care bill that threatens to defund Planned Parenthood, make deep cuts to Medicaid and take away health care coverage from millions of people. On Wednesday, Unbound announced a campaign called “Vibes for Congress” that allows people to send any $15 vibrator along with an educational pamphlet on women’s health to a specific representative. As an Unbound spokesperson told HuffPost, they recommend people target congresspeople who are “in favor of the GOP healthcare bill.” Seventy-five percent of the proceeds from each sale will go to Planned Parenthood. “The initiative is meant to shed a light on the importance of women’s health in the face of changes that would threaten it, while demonstrating that women will not stay silent in the face of such dire risks,” an Unbound spokesperson said. The educational pamphlet included with each vibrator package features facts about women’s health care and the potential repercussions of reducing access to it. Scroll below to see the information included on the two-sided pamphlet. Unbound One in five women in the U.S. has visited a Planned Parenthood health center at least once in her life. Unbound Only 5 percent of U.S. high schools have made condoms available to their students. Once you decide on a vibrator, Unbound helps you find the address of the representative you’d like to send the lovely gift to. The landing page includes a drop-down menu that allows users to search and choose their specific representative. As the campaign’s tagline quips: Let’s “send the message that female sexual health and wellness is NOT up for grabs.”

The Pennsylvania Game Commission on Monday asked the public's help in finding who shot and killed a bald eagle last week near Lehighton. The white-headed raptor was shot Wednesday evening near Germans and Stone Mountain roads in East Penn Township, state wildlife conservation officer Joel Gibble said. A witness heard the shot and found the wounded bird, which died a short time later. Gibble asked that anyone with information on the shooting contact the Game Commission at 610-926-3136. East Penn residents said they were disheartened by the shooting. "I cannot believe it," said Ann Marie Bonner of Stone Mountain Road. "That's a shame. I enjoyed seeing him fly over. He used to fly over all the time. It could have been more than one, but we thought it was just the one." Bonner said she saw a wildlife officer investigating the shooting Saturday. "It's upsetting," her husband, Michael, said. For about three years, the bald eagle had been a common sight in the area, about 6 miles southwest of Lehighton, he said. The bald eagle was designated an endangered species in 1967 but was taken off the endangered list in 2007. Other laws still prohibit shooting — or shooting at — bald eagles. — Frank Warner

Jim DeMint adds momentum to Convention of States movement Former South Carolina senator and ousted president of the Heritage Foundation Jim DeMint has found new purpose in rallying Americans to use an Article V Convention of States to take back power from Washington D.C. and amend the Constitution to restore power to state governments and the people. USA Today exclusively reports that DeMint will serve as senior adviser to the Convention of States Project in its mission to “marshal grassroots support for a state-led movement to amend the U.S. Constitution.” “The Tea Party needs a new mission,” DeMint told USA Today. “They realize that all the work they did in 2010 has not resulted in all the things they hoped for. Many of them are turning to Article V.” Republicans in Congress have failed to deliver on the promises they made to Tea Party conservatives who put them in power. Obamacare remains the law of the land. A GOP-controlled Congress recently passed a $1.1 trillion spending bill funding the Democrats’ priorities. Even calls for tax cuts by Republicans are peppered with stipulations for “revenue neutral” proposals to create new taxes or eliminate tax deductions (an effective tax increase). Congress seems incapable of passing truly conservative legislation, and now it’s time for the states to take power themselves, says DeMint. “This is a perfect time for us,” DeMint said. “People are disgusted with Washington. They are ready to move power back closer to home.” Republicans have full control of the legislatures of 32 states, and there are Republican governors in 33 states. Article V of the U.S. Constitution requires “the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states” to go around Congress and call for a convention to propose amendments to the Constitution. If 33 states call for a convention of states, Article V is triggered, and the process of amending the Constitution begins. Three-fourths of the several states — 38 states — must ratify any amendment proposed by convention delegates. This constitutional requirement will serve as a proper check against the threat of a “runaway convention,” proponents of Article V argue. So far, 12 states have adopted resolutions calling for a convention of states. A separate effort calling specifically for a balanced budget amendment currently has the support of 27 states. DeMint will travel to North Carolina later this month on behalf of the Convention of States Project to encourage the state House to follow the state Senate’s lead in passing a resolution calling for a convention of states. Should the House do so, North Carolina will become the 13th state to call for a convention to amend the Constitution. Sen. DeMint said in an official statement that his experience in Washington D.C. has taught him that real change will never come from the nation’s capital. “I tried to rein in Washington from inside the House and Senate, then by starting the Senate Conservatives Fund to elect good conservatives, and finally as President of the Heritage Foundation, creating and promoting good, conservative policy. But once I realized that Washington will never willingly return decision-making power back to the American people and the states, I began to search for another way to restrain the federal government,” said DeMint. “I am excited to get outside the beltway and work with the grassroots of the Convention of States Project to continue the fight I started almost two decades ago.” “The time is now for bold action to save America, and Jim DeMint knows how to fight the opposition to do what is best for Nation and the People,” said Mark Meckler, co-founder of the Convention of States Project. “He is a principled legislative leader and a friend of the grassroots, which makes his addition to the Convention of States Project a natural fit.” “I’m telling you this is going to be an earthquake,” Conservative Review Editor-in-Chief Mark Levin said of Article V earlier this year. “This is the greatest threat against the statist, utopian progressives in 125 years.” Editor’s note: This article has been updated to include official comments from Jim DeMint and Mark Meckler.

The FBI has arrested a Utah man who is accused in court documents of making machine guns and discussing the bombing of an Internal Revenue Service building and other government facilities. Keith Max Pierce, 34, of Provo, Utah, currently is only charged with three federal firearms charges – failure to register as a firearms dealer, illegal possession of machine guns and possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number. Officials have not said what Pierce’s motivations may have been. Pierce was arrested Wednesday in Provo, Utah, by federal agents assigned to a Joint Terrorism Task Force. He is scheduled to appear at a bail hearing Monday in U.S. District Court in Salt Lake City. Debbie Dujanovic Bertram, a spokeswoman for the task force, told Hatewatch today she could not discuss if Pierce is a “sovereign citizen,” someone who believes himself exempt from most laws and taxes, or a member of any antigovernment groups. “This [is] an individual who made comments indicating he could be a threat to the community," Loren Cannon, assistant special agent in charge of the FBI office in Salt Lake City, said Thursday, the Provo Daily Herald reported. The investigation of Pierce began last November after he allegedly made comments to an FBI informant, according to court documents unsealed Thursday. Pierce’s statements concerned “bombing the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) based in Provo, Utah, the Provo Police Department and a court building (believed to be the Provo City Justice Court),” the court document says. Pierce also discussed having access to fully automatic weapons and having the tools and knowledge to make fully automatic weapons. During the ensuing investigation, an undercover FBI agent was introduced to Pierce through an online gun advertisement, authorities disclose in federal charging document. On March 20, the document says the undercover agent and Pierce “made a deal” for the purchase of a fully automatic AR-15, the same type of weapon used by U.S. military forces. Without a federal registration, it is illegal to possess fully automatic weapons. On May 28, Pierce delivered the machine gun with an obliterated serial number to the agent in the clubhouse parking lot of the Branburry Apartment complex in Provo, the court document says. In a subsequent conversation secretly recorded by the FBI, Pierce discussed just how easy it is to take a legal, s semi-automatic AR-15 assault rifle and convert to a fully automatic weapon. “Actually make that full … you only need to take out one part, it’s easy as hell,’’ Pierce is quoted as saying in the court documents. “I brought the tools with me. … I could’ve shot it, taken the one part out and pocketed it and nobody would’ve been able to figure it out.”

One great way to go green is to practice conservation, or as I like to call it, "avoidance." In other words, avoid using gas by missing traffic, avoid using excess electricity by turning your lights off remotely, avoid waste by buying used goods. One little tool has a growing ability to help you ditch the need for the little-bit-mores that we want to cut out: the iPhone. While other phones are starting to adopt apps and web-based programs as well, the iPhone has a seriously wide selection of apps a user can download. And with mobile service technology, there are a few energy saving solutions that link up with your phone and alert you on how and when to cut back on energy use. We've scoured the apps store and internet for the coolest green options and programs that will help save gas, energy, time and money in four main areas of life.iPhone Apps for Gas, Driving and Car Maintenance iPhone Apps for Traveling, Carpooling and Mass Transportation iPhone Helps with Home Energy Use iPhone Apps for Greener Shopping

Share. Taking on the challenge. Taking on the challenge. Xbox boss Phil Spencer has confirmed that Microsoft is currently looking into making it possible for Xbox One owners to stream PC games to their console. "We understand if you're going to go PC to Xbox, we need to get keyboard and mouse working completely so you could play those games," Spencer told The Verge. "In terms of where we want to go with our platform, those are absolutely in scope of things that we want to do." Exit Theatre Mode With the launch of Windows 10, gamers can now stream their Xbox One games to PC, but thanks to a few challenges, a solution to make the reverse possible hasn't been worked out just yet. However, Microsoft is aware of the demand for such functionality and is looking to make it a reality. "It's actually a little more challenging doing the encoding on the PC side to the Xbox, but challenge is good," Spencer added. "[Gamers] want to play games on the device that they want to play on. They want to play with their friends and they progress whenever they sit down. Because of that, the roadmap and our focus on what's going on, Windows is incredibly strong." Exit Theatre Mode The Xbox boss didn't provide a target date for when PC-to-Xbox One game streaming might be available, but based on his comments, the company is clearly committed to working out a solution.

HTC began what they hope will be turnaround for their mobile division today by announcing the third smartphone in the new ‘U‘ series for 2017. HTC U 11 is the first of its kind, but adopts traits from the HTC U Ultra, which launched earlier in the year, as well as last year’s HTC 10 flagship device. It starts up front with the device’s name, which combines both the ‘U’ moniker from HTC’s 2017 lineup of smartphones, as well as the numbering from HTC’s flagship line which has consisted of One M7, One M8, One M9, and HTC 10 before it. Of all the companies, HTC has definitely become the most unpredictable in the naming it chooses for its handsets. Here’s everything to know about the HTC U 11. HTC announced perhaps would could mark a turning point for the company today at an event in Taipei, Taiwan. HTC U 11 seems like it will be the company’s 2017 flagship smartphone, which will succeed last year’s HTC 10 and coexist alongside HTC U Ultra and HTC U Play. The three ‘U’ smartphones are part of a new series for 2017 that HTC has delivered. The trio is part of a new strategy the company has employed, fewer low-end smartphones and more of what “You” want, so the company says. So far, the strategy used for marketing purposes that is supposed to indicate a shift for a company that has been struggling, hasn’t quite resonated well with consumers and has left many unsettled only wanting more. Earlier this year, we held a poll concerning HTC’s recent moves and asked you if the U Ultra was good enough to succeed the HTC 10 from last year. We wanted to know whether or not you thought HTC’s altered strategy has been good or bad, and if the company should go back to its old self. The public opinion we received was overwhelming split. After months of conflicting reports, rumors and leaks, we finally have HTC’s mysterious handset. The company held a private event in its homeland on May 16th at 2:00PM local time, which translated over to mid-way through the night for many of us here in the states. This is typical of HTC, who as of late has held events on their own. The company teased the event as “Squeeze for the Brilliant,” which refers to the new and outlandish design of HTC’s latest handset. Some of which we got was already known, but there’s quite a bit of new information HTC kept good lock on until its unveiling. The company has taken a bold stance in many areas, as it will try to set itself apart from rivals once reaching the consumer market. If they don’t, this could very well be the last flagship smartphone from HTC. The HTC U 11 packs mostly high-end internals starting off with Gorilla Glass 5 protected 5.5-inch Quad HD display that curves around the edges. It’s of a Super Clear LCD 5 screen type that nearly resembles what we get on AMOLED displays, meaning vibrant colors and high brightness for improved outdoor visibility. Unlike the HTC U Ultra, this model comes without the tinker-like display that housed shortcuts to many apps. Though, HTC has gone with squeeze edge functions instead, which we’ll soon explain in greater detail. HTC has also improved its screen-to-body ratio over previous smartphones, but has retained the 16:9 aspect ratio for its display. This means that the dimensions will be slightly wider and less tall compared with the newest arrivals in the space from Samsung and LG. Therefore, using the phone in one-hand may be of struggle to some. The good news is, the phone is made for the moment, and the truth is, the advantages of 18:9 or 2:1 haven’t yet outpaced the negatives to having it. When it comes to hardware specifications, the HTC U 11 should perform like a champ with its simplified interface and Snapdragon 835 processor. This is the later high-end chipset from Qualcomm. Included at the core will be 4GB of RAM and 64GB on internal storage. A built-in microSD card slot will also let you expand out the storage to include up to 2TB of additional space if you desire. The phone incorporates a 3,000mAh battery, the same that is inside HTC’s larger counterpart, the U Ultra. We would have liked to see more mAh, but 3,000mAh for a phone of this size isn’t much to complain about. Owners of the device will also get Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 3.0 through a wired USB Type-C charging connection located at the bottom of the phone. We also have support for dual SIM and NFC (for payments). For cameras, we have both front and rear-facing lenses, and each has been improved to provide crisper picture quality, even when in low-light. HTC isn’t well-known for their camera tech, so we’ll make sure to put this model through its paces before declaring anything special. The rear contains a 12MP UltraPixel sensor with a f/1.7 aperture and dual-LED flash. The front camera is of an even larger 16MP sensor with f/2.0, which could very well be capable of taking some of the best selfies out there especially in combination with a new selfie panorama mode that is on board. HTC noted in its announcement that the selfie camera on HTC U 11 received a score of 90 on DxOMark, which is the highest rating for a smartphone to date. Both front and rear cameras are equipped with OIS. The HTC U 11 also gets it right when it comes to software. Google’s Android 7.1 Nougat (MR1) will run the house from the very packaging. It will also be first among those waiting in line for Android O, as well as new security patches. We should hear more on this soon at Google I/O 2017. But for now, stay tuned to our Droid Updates Weekly Series, as we post information about the latest Android device updates each week. Google’s latest software will bring about a range of new features including doze on the go, bundled notifications, split-screen multitasking, enhanced security, new emojis, and a new Vulkan API for better overall graphics performance. You’ll also have some Android 7.1 Nougat exclusive features like app shortcuts, GIF touch keyboard support, live wallpaper metadata, and more. And of course, the Google Assistant will be present, which uses AI and machine learning to improve over time. On top will be a new version of HTC Sense in version 9.0 that will bring a much-needed refresh with useful features and minimal bloat. This is probably the most slimmed down skin out there next to Motorola’s, and should as a result give off smooth and fluent performance for years to come. Perhaps best of all, owners will get the latest Google applications pre-loaded, which have replaced many of the stock apps. Thanks to the curved edges of the HTC U 11, we have something HTC is calling ‘Edge Sense’, which is part of the company’s overlay on top of Android, Sense version 9.0. This is a collection of features from HTC that make good use of the curved screen. Users will be able to squeeze long or short on the phone to activate apps and take different actions. For example, users can activate the Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa (available on the handset in select markets) from anywhere. HTC claims that squeezing your phone will even work if your hands are wet or have gloves on, and promises that the pressure sensitivity won’t deteriorate over time nor consume much battery. There are also some squeeze gestures built into the interface. Take the camera app for example, where users can squeeze to take shots. This will be customizable from the device’s settings menu. The functionality is similar to what we get on Samsung’s Edge smartphone models, but way cooler in the way it operates. You’ll have to try it to see how interesting it really is. Let’s hope buyers take advantage of it unlike the tinker-like display on HTC U Ultra. Present on the HTC U 11 are HTC’s signature Boomsound Hi-Fi stereo speakers, which have improved over the last generation. Though, unlike some previous flagship iterations from HTC, the HTC U 11 follows suite with the U Ultra and U Play, boarding the speakers at the bottom of the phone rather than out front. One benefit of having the speakers lower-mounted is HTC’s addition of water resistance (IP67), meaning that the phone will be able to withstand some rain or a splash of water. Making the experience that much better will be 3D audio recording and high-res audio. This allows users to capture rich audio from all directions using 4x included microphones, and even pin-point where they want to boost reception. Many of the remaining design elements are in line with HTC’s U class, meaning glass back with a high gloss finish and shiny look that’ll show all your lovely fingerprints. Taking a look around the device there are side-mounted volume controls, a power key, and fingerprint scanner which doubles as a non-tactile home button. HTC will have some grumbling about the chosen set up for navigation that also includes two capacitive keys rather than software programmable buttons. And that 3.5mm headphone jack you like so much; it’s not here either. Pre-orders for HTC U 11 have already gone up for an unlocked model on HTC.com and Amazon, as well as U.S. carrier Sprint, who will sell a carrier oriented version of the handset exclusively in the states. The unlocked model will work on T-Mobile, Verizon and AT&T. Every unit will come with a pair of USonic tech earbuds, which feature active noise cancellation and adjust to fit your style. Color choices will include White, Black, Blue, Red, and Silver, though HTC has its own names for them, and may vary on the basis of location and carrier since there are so many of them. Pricing will go for $649 unlocked. Sprint’s version will be sold at $29 per month for 24 months, or if you prefer to pay up front, $696. They’ll sell only the Blue and Black models. Pre-orders will ship out June 9th when the handset becomes available to the masses. The product links are below.

Traffic signs in China – Photo by James Schwartz / The Urban Country Winston Churchill once said that it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried. Like all other good things, democracy certainly has its flaws. In North American democracy, transportation policy often caters to the majority instead of considering the best interests of everyone. For example, if 51% of citizens in a North American city commute using motor vehicles, 29% take public transit, 15% walk and 5% ride bicycles, then in our current “democratic” system will usually cater to the majority (drivers) at the expense of the 49% of the population who don’t drive cars. Today is the fourth day since I arrived in China – on Hainan island in the South China Sea. Although most would say the Chinese government is “undemocratic”, when it comes to transportation, the government often looks at the best interests of everyone rather than catering to a single group. One could possibly even argue that this is more democratic than North American transportation policy which plays favourites with the largest group of voters. To be sure, China is no saint on many issues. But when it comes to transportation, China’s commitment to looking out for the greater good is evident by the vast expenditures invested in public transit in its cities, its world-class bicycle infrastructure, and regulation on the number of motor vehicles allowed to be registered in major cities. All three of these initiatives have helped to reduce pollution and traffic congestion in Chinese cities as well as providing affordable alternative means of transportation for its citizens. Democracy has failed us in North America. Our government has catered to drivers without considering the consequences or working toward the greater good of everyone. The result of our “democracy” is that we end up with little bits of inadequate bike lanes neighbourhoods represented by “bicycle-friendly” elected officials, but then those bike lanes end when they reach neighbourhoods with anti-bike officials. Our democratic process rewards polarization to win votes by isolating groups of people – the “divide and conquer” approach. We thus end up with an us vs. them attitude when it comes to allocating the limited space on our streets. You are either “for” cars, or “for” bicycles. There doesn’t seem to be a middle ground, even though most people who use bicycles in North America also drive cars. The result is that it becomes inconvenient and uncomfortable to ride a bicycle in North American cities. This leads more people to resort to motor vehicles as they are sole mode of transportation. Here in Haikou – Hainan’s capital city of ~2 million people – virtually all new roads are constructed to include bicycle infrastructure. The decision to include bicycle infrastructure cannot be blocked by a particular car-loving neighbourhood. Bike infrastructure is included with standard road design, just like we do with sidewalks in North America. Further, the bike lanes here aren’t just a painted line on the shoulder of a road or located directly in the door zone of a row of parked cars. Bike lanes here are wide and physically separated, making riding a pleasurable and safe experience instead of a stressful and dangerous one. Below is a photo of a new road that hasn’t yet been built. The street signs have preceded the road itself. Each of these new roads come equipped with a sign that is so common across China to indicate which lane is dedicated to bicycles: China bike infrastructure – Photo by James Schwartz / The Urban Country You can see in the photo above the physical separation between the motor vehicles and bicycles. These physically separated lanes are everywhere (when not prohibited by lack of space), and extremely comfortable to ride. Here is a photo on a new road in a brand new development zone in Haikou: China bike infrastructure – Photo by James Schwartz / The Urban Country Some bike lanes are shared with motor vehicles. But vehicles drive much slower in this lane and only enter this lane when they are parking or entering a driveway. These are also common in the Netherlands, but they are virtually nonexistent in North America: China bike infrastructure – Photo by James Schwartz / The Urban Country Including properly-designed bicycle infrastructure as standard planning in North America would provide what many North Americans crave: a comfortable alternative to driving cars. A way to avoid traffic jams. A way to get daily exercise without even thinking about it. A way to know exactly how long it will take to get to your destination – regardless of traffic. But until we include bicycle infrastructure as a key aspect of road design we will always be fighting for short patches of bike lanes that seem to end even before they begin. James D.

Country pledges to stick to terms of €10bn bailout after president's appeal for more help is turned down Cyprus has pledged to stick with the terms of its €10bn (£8.6bn) bailout after EU officials signalled they would reject an appeal from the country's president, Nicos Anastasiades, for additional help. Three months after accepting a deal with international creditors, the government in Nicosia denied reports that it had demanded an overhaul. Cyprus claimed that Anastasiades had been trying to alert fellow leaders to the economic problems in the island republic when, last week, he wrote to them pleading for more help for its banking sector. "There is no attempt to renegotiate the memorandum of understanding," said a spokesman. The programme co-ordinated by the International Monetary Fund, the European Central Bank and the EU includes raids on Cypriot bank accounts containing more than €100,000. The notion of further bank aid was slapped down by EU policymakers on Wednesday. As in Greece, adjustments to the bailout could be made further down the line but only if the island stuck to the conditions of the rescue package, they said. "There's no chance we'll revise the terms of the bailout," one official told Reuters. The official conceded, however, that the matter could be discussed when eurozone finance ministers meet in Luxembourg on Thursday ahead of next week's summit. Despite Nicosia insisting it would implement the onerous conditions of the programme, the rejection once again raised the spectre of the island exiting the single currency. Ladbrokes cut the odds on Cyprus leaving the euro in the next 12 months to evens. Indicative of the frustration felt by officials in Nicosia, Anastasiades described the bailout in his letter as insufficiently prepared. "Artificial measures" such as capital controls, imposed to prevent a mass outflow of money when it became clear that depositors would also be forced to endure losses as part of the bailout agreement, were eroding confidence in the banking sector by the day, he said. "It is my humble submission that the bail-in was implemented without careful preparation," the leader wrote in his letter. "There was no clear understanding of how a bail-in was to be implemented; legal issues are being raised and major delays in completing the process are being observed." Referring to the haircut to Cypriot bank deposits, he added: "Moreover, no distinction was made between long-term deposits earning high returns and money flowing through current accounts, such as firms' working capital." As a result, he said, businesses had suffered significant loss of working capital, driving the economy into deeper recession. "The success of the programme approved by the Eurogroup and the troika depends upon the emergence of a strong and viable Bank of Cyprus. It is for this reason that I urge you to support a long-term solution to Bank of Cyprus's thin liquidity position." In a first for a eurozone member state, the island accepted to enforce steep losses on large, uninsured deposit holders at its two biggest banks, Cyprus Popular Bank PCL – also known as Laiki – and the Bank of Cyprus. In exchange for €10bn in rescue loans from the EU and IMF, it also agreed to press ahead with €13bn worth of measures to cut its deficit in addition to winding down Laiki. Anastasiades said Cyprus had been made to pay an excessive price for the restructuring of Greece's own debt to which Cypriot banks had been heavily exposed. "The heavy burden placed on Cyprus by the restructuring of Greek debt was not taken into consideration when it was Cyprus' turn to seek help," he wrote. "At this crucial juncture, we are calling upon you for active and tangible support."

Story highlights A Danish professor said a South American fish was found in Danish waters He said the fish may attack male private parts, but now he says it was a joke A fish expert says the fish are vegetarian and don't swim in saltwater There is no record of them attacking humans, the expert says It is safe to go back into the water again -- at least in Scandinavia. A warning over the weekend for male swimmers off the coast of Denmark and Sweden to protect their private parts because of a testicle-munching fish appears to have been a joke that got out of hand. After a Danish fisherman caught a South American pacu among his eels and perch this month, a professor at the Copenhagen Museum of Natural History told men to be careful because the fish sometimes mistake male reproductive organs for tree nuts, one of their favorite foods. "Anyone choosing to bathe in the Oresund these days had best keep their swimsuits well tied," Professor Peter Rask Moller said in a Saturday news release about the fish discovery in the strait separating Denmark and Sweden. Wednesday, however, Moller said he was just joking and never meant for his warning to get so much publicity. "We did say that we recommend men to keep their swimsuits tied up until we know if there are more pacus out there in our waters," Moller told CNN by e-mail. "Of course, this is half a joke since it is very unlikely that you would actually meet one here and that it would bite you. It's up to people themselves how careful they want to be. I'll keep my shorts on, though." Finding a pacu, a close relative of the piranha normally found in South America, is unusual so far north. Moller said it was likely dumped in the strait by an amateur aquarium owner or fish farmer. William Fink, a piranha researcher at the University of Michigan who is also curator of fishes at the school's Museum of Zoology, poured water on the pacu warning. For one thing, he said, pacus are vegetarian -- and there's no record of them attacking a human. "They're fruit eaters. Those big crushing teeth they have is for crushing seeds," he said. Pacus tend to swim under fruiting trees during high water, waiting for the trees to drop their fruit, seeds and nuts, Fink said. The fish then swim to the surface to eat the tasty morsels. In fact, Fink said, that's how fishermen catch them: by putting a piece of fruit on the end of a line and letting it float in the water. Pacus swim up to grab it and then get caught. "The nuts that they're eating, the fruits that they're eating, are splashing down from above, and humans don't act like that when they're swimming," Fink said. And unlike piranhas, which have rigid, razor-sharp interlocking teeth, pacus have teeth that resemble human molars and fit together in a similar bite, Fink said. The pacus use those teeth to crush their food, not to rip it apart -- or off. He speculated that the pacu found in Denmark was probably released shortly before it was found because pacu species can't survive in either saltwater or chilly temperatures. "It's just too cold for pacus to be living there. They certainly wouldn't make it through the winter," or even past October, he said. CNN was among numerous news outlets around the world that reported the Danish news release over the weekend, focusing on the special warning for male swimmers. Moller said he only meant to publicize the surprise discovery of a pacu in the Baltic and to advise the public that the fish can be invasive and possibly dangerous. "The story about the 'nuts' was never meant to be the headline. But it certainly got people's attention," Moller told CNN. "I'm sorry if it has caused you any trouble. It was a bit of a joke, but I still will keep my swimsuits tied up, and I will never swim in an aquarium with these fishes."

ABOUT GaryJohnson 2016 Does Hilary for President have you projectile vomiting? Is Trump for President making you pour bleach into your eyes? Don't throw your vote away! Don't let the establishment roll you over! Gary Johnson is running for the Libertarian party!#FeelTheJohnsonMessage to Bernie 2016 supporters: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nee3Ig7zupY Bio:Governor Johnson, who has been referred to as the ‘most fiscally conservative Governor’ in the country, was the Republican Governor of New Mexico from 1994-2003. A successful businessman before running for Governor of New Mexico in 1994, Gary Johnson started a door-to-door handyman business to help pay his way through college. Twenty years later, he had grown that business into one of the largest construction companies in New Mexico, with more than 1,000 employees. Not surprisingly, Governor Johnson brings a distinctly business-like mentality to governing, believing that public policy decisions should be based on costs and benefits rather than strict ideology. Johnson is best known for his veto record, having vetoed more than 750 bills during his time in office — more than all other governors combined. His use of the veto pen has since earned him the nickname “Governor Veto.” He cut taxes 14 times while never raising them. When he left office, New Mexico was one of only four states in the country with a balanced budget. Term-limited, Johnson retired from public office in 2003. An avid skier, adventurer, and bicyclist, he has scaled the highest peak on each of the seven continents, including Mt. Everest. In the 2012 presidential election, Johnson placed third and garnered more votes than any other Libertarian candidate in history. Johnson was raised Lutheran. He has two grown children, a daughter Seah and a son Erik, and currently resides in a house he built himself in Taos, New Mexico.

In documentary filmmaking, truth is almost always filled with lies. It’s just the nature of the form, really—of any filmmaking at all, for that matter. Even a home video recording, if you’ve ever made or watched or starred in one, is marred by manipulation: Whether you’re aware you’re being “watched” or not, your truth is a sort of surreal quilt of camera placement, cuts and atmosphere, totally mitigated by the lens and then, further down the food chain, the ultimate observer. If you know you’re being watched, you act accordingly; if you don’t, the recording may carry a subtle tone of voyeurism, of intrusiveness—the feeling that something isn’t quite right. And yet, from direct cinema to Dogme 95, truth has always been an idealistic goal for many filmmakers, and not necessarily the purity of it, but the translation of its most deeply held essentials. Arguably, documentary filmmaking has always been at the forefront of that aim, though during much of its primordial beginnings—especially throughout the 1920s, ’30s, and ’40s—documentary filmmakers trolled truth as if it was yet another stuffy branch of bourgeois power. In Land Without Bread (1933), Luis Buñuel parodied the white guilt of popular travelogue docs of the time, pointing out that sadness and economical devastation existed in Spain itself—no need to travel to some faraway land. In Nanook of the North (1922), the life of an Inuit clan was notoriously messed with. And Man with a Movie Camera (1929) pretty much just made a bunch of shit up. Their goals weren’t to leave truth unfondled, but to say that an unfondled truth is an unexplored one: shallow and meaningless. Once Jean Rouche, Frederick Wiseman, D.A. Pennebaker and the Maysles, however, pioneered and then defined throughout the 1950s and ’60s what came to be known as cinéma vérité, documentary filmmaking shouldered the burden of truth, resolving to allow life to operate on its own, brushed only briefly by the manipulative fingers of the filmmaker. This was coupled with advances in filmmaking technology, notably that equipment became lighter, and more mobile. In turn, crews shrank, and coverage became paramount. That Nick Broomfield’s films are filmed with a minute crew on minute budgets, or that Oscar-winning Searching for Sugar Man (2012) was captured partly on an iPhone camera, means that today, as it is with most art, anyone can be a documentary filmmaker. Which isn’t a bad thing. Because truth belongs to the people, by definition—it is ours to shape and hone and mold into something that enriches each of our lives and each of our worldviews however we see fit. That the following list leans heavily on films released in the past five years isn’t a coincidence, nor is it a factor of some shortsighted list-making. Instead, it points directly to our increased capacity to capture, reproduce and respect truth. If anything, we’re coming full circle. Will the truth set you free? Probably not, but we believe the following 100 documentaries are the all-time greatest attempts to find out. 100. Deep Water Directors: Jerry Rothwell, Louise Osmond Year: 2006 Louise Osmond and Jerry Rothwell’s 2006 documentary Deep Water feels like an homage: to sailing, to the sea, to adventure, to vindaloo paste, but mostly to the unknown. In it, Osmond and Rothwell, with narrative help from friends and then—sure—Tilda Swinton, chronicle the 1968 round-the-world Sunday Times Golden Globe yacht race, wherein nine of the world’s best sailors, plus one large-hearted electronics engineer named Donald Crowhurst—pretty much the definition of a “weekend sailor”—set out to circumnavigate the globe. They started in the UK, went south and around the Cape of Good Hope, across the Indian Ocean, around Cape Horn, and then back across the Atlantic to complete the loop. It was supposed to take about nine months. Instead, Crowhurst’s story found incomprehensible tragedy—and weirdness. While Deep Water often trumps melodramatic musical cues and interstitial vignettes even Errol Morris would call cheesy, pushing the narrative into heartrending territory the story itself could easily attain on its own, long passages of screen time are devoted, just as simply, to staring at the sea. Like Herzog’s seemingly interminable shots of whitewater on the Amazon in Aguirre, the viewer is expected to hold her gaze. It’s a hypnotic sight; it’s also simultaneously overwhelming and calm, vicious and passive, loud and susurrate to the point of silence. In that middle ground, between poles (or, rather, where two ends meet, at both the end and the beginning), there is the terror of the unknown. There is this ocean and that ocean and thousands of miles of incomprehensible vista. —Dom Sinacola 99. Low and Clear Directors: Kahlil Hudson, Tyler Hughen Year: 2012 Reading the description of Kahlil Hudson and Tyler Hughen’s remarkable film—two friends who are world-class fishermen, half a country apart, take a trip to British Columbia to fly fish and reconnect—you’d think that you’re in for a slow, meditative, deeply felt journey with beautiful scenery so bounteous you’re bound to take it for granted. It is all of that: meditative and deeply felt and beautiful—but it’s anything but slow. Having two fascinating, outspoken and often at-odds subjects helps, as does the deft and slightly mischievous touch of editor Alex Jablonski. But most of all, Hudson and Hughen seem determined not to settle for a tone poem. They want to tell something thrilling—and what they come up with is up to the task, a mesmerizing feast for the senses. —Michael Dunaway 98. Spellbound Director: Jeffrey Blitz Year: 2002 The oh gawrsh factor is through the roof in this crowd-pleasing look at the efforts of eight youngsters, in 8th grade and under, to win the 1999 Scripps National Spelling Bee. It’s also a surprisingly suspenseful watch, thanks to some smart editing and the bright-eyed charisma of these kids—among some 250 hopefuls—cheered on by parents, teachers and audiences at these de facto intellectual Olympics. A quintessentially “American” portrait, Jeffrey Blitz’s Oscar-nominated film touches on issues of race, class and ethnic background in delving into each competitor’s journey to the event in Washington D.C., but Spellbound gets a pass for its many tropes because they’re, well, true—that, and its up-with-nerds charm. —Amanda Schurr 97. Dig! Director: Ondi Timoner Year: 2004 Chronicling seven years in the turbulent career of the Dandy Warhols and the Brian Jonestown Massacre, Dig! reveals the messy details of not only what it meant to rise in the ’90s indie rock scene, but what it took to navigate the complicated friendships and ambitions that formed it. The film goes beyond footage of sex and drugs to tell the urgent story of two bands seeking fame and radical musical revolution—but mostly fame. At the most, it’s a test of endurance: To what extent are you willing to tolerate the excessively putrid behavior of people who may (or may not) be making brilliant art? Those on the fence with Kanye, take note. —Caroline Klibanoff 96. Murderball Directors: Henry Alex Rubin, Dana Adam Shapiro Year: 2005 As a documentary that sets out to shatter our assumptions about quadriplegics, Murderball tries admirably to paint its characters as regular guys. Except these aren’t; they’re testosterone-fueled jocks proud of their aggressive playing and even prouder of their dicks (which still function, they’re quick to point out, when their legs or arms don’t). These young men devote themselves to wheelchair rugby, which they aptly dubbed “murderball” before it gained enough popularity to earn corporate sponsorship and a place in the Paralympic Games. It’s a sport played by teams in armored wheelchairs, by guys who arguably have chips on their soldiers rolling around on an indoor court in order to knock each other sideways and incite a roar from the crowd. It has all the trappings of any other team sport, including hot-headed coaches, displays of bravado and nail-biting championship games. Yet, despite the adrenaline and dick-waving, the heart of the film is something more important than just a game: It’s watching these guys struggle to accept themselves. Each tough, competitive personality shelters a damaged but recovering self-image. —Robert Davis 95. Room 237 Director: Rodney Ascher Year: 2013 There exists a rare species of obsessive cinephile: the hyper-fan who focuses on one film, mentally and emotionally ingesting it dozens, maybe hundreds, of times. Along a certain parallel, there is also a serious breed of conspiracy theorist, compulsive in his or her beliefs, taking things far beyond just watching Doomsday Preppers for fun. Push these two types inextricably together, you get Room 237, the confounding, eye-opening and often hilarious documentary about individuals whose over-wired brains are devoted to one cinematic masterpiece, Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining. The most outlandish—and perplexing—theories in Room 237 posit The Shining either as a vehicle meant to comment on dark, oppressive periods in history, or as a massive, cryptic revelation. As a cinema sociologist, director Rodney Ascher acts as non-participant observer, letting his Room 237 subjects sell themselves, leaving us to jump on, laugh or stare in amazement. As a documentary filmmaker, Ascher voraciously digs into the stories, freezing frames from the 1980 classic, adding explanatory graphics and complex maps of the hotel’s physical layout. As the subjects analyze Kubrick, Ascher analyzes their analyses, which in turn inspires an analysis of Room 237 itself, making for a documentary film that twists in on its own guts so thoroughly one can’t help but feel similarly obsessed by film’s end. —Norm Schrager 94. L’amour Fou Director: Pierre Thoretton Year: 2010 At first, this exceedingly quiet film seems to offer little in the way of insight: through the laconic accounts of long-time partner Pierre Bergé, the story of fashion industry icon Yves Saint Laurent is laid out in strikingly economical detail. He gained notoriety, and with it critical respect, as he lost much of a perspective on the bounds of his wealth and the impenetrability of his depression. In fact, upon learning Laurent had only a few weeks to live due to brain cancer, Bergé elected to keep the information from his partner—and husband, married only a few days before Laurent’s death—because he knew the designer wouldn’t be able to functionally deal with the news. In these moments, L’amour fou plays out like a touching, though slight, testament to a great artist and the unyielding love some people felt for him. It’s probably no surprise that as his profile rose, Laurent began to pull away, both physically and mentally, from the person with whom he chose to spend his life. Yet, the film’s success lies in the way it thoughtfully dwells over every insignificant piece of rare art or expensive accoutrement amassed by the couple over their lifetimes, so much so that (especially with Laurent’s presence removed) Bergé’s home looks little more than a stuffy, poorly organized museum—fastidious and far from homely. And then, when Bergé endeavors to sell all of it on auction, the sense of loss grows to tenuous levels: Is he trying to find closure, or instead proving that everything they accumulated did nothing to make their lives any better, or any worse, when viewed in retrospect? Bergé, the inheritor of an astounding amount of money due to the auction (which Thoretton documents plainly, watching Bergé as he calmly hears one astronomical closing bid after another), finds nothing in the end but whatever security all that wealth provides … which, as we watch Bergé blankly stare out of a dreary window, Come Aguiar’s perfectly nuanced score accompanying his silence, feels like even more of nothing at all. —D.S. 93. Koko, the Talking Gorilla (Koko, le gorille qui parl) Director: Barbet Schroeder Year: 1978 Koko, the Talking Gorilla uses the story of Koko, a gorilla who is able to communicate through sign language, to ask: “What rights should animals have?” As part of that project, director Barbet Schroeder plays with various levels of conundrum: money-focused interests want to put Koko on display while Koko’s trainer, Penny Patterson, argues that Koko should have the same rights afforded human children, because Koko demonstrates the same capacities as a typical young child. To his credit, Schroeder doesn’t shirk the obvious fact that the whole reason any of us are watching a documentary about a talking gorilla is right there in the title: it’s a talking gorilla, meaning we too are implicated in the exploitation of Koko’s humanity. Schroeder also chooses to linger on Patterson’s confessionals and her interactions with Koko, suggesting that Patterson’s expectations may be far too ambitious, and that her faith in Koko’s humanity might say more about Patterson herself than Koko, the latter of whom spends most of the film studiously ignoring the camera. Watching it now, I’m struck by another way to view the film. Because this was released the same year as the English translation of Michel Foucault’s The History of Sexuality, it’s also possible to see the film as an exploration of how scientists were dealing with emerging anxieties over the postmodern assertion that “nurture” was as or more important than “nature.” In that sense, Koko is merely a prop for a broader discussion about what the “self” is, sure, but it grants the film an intellectual and cultural context that makes it more than just an early missive in the debate over animal rights. —Mark Abraham 92. The Hellstrom Chronicle Directors: Walon Green, Ed Spiegel Year: 1971 When Dr. Nils Hellstrom (played by a flamboyantly serious Lawrence Pressman) says that The Hellstrom Chronicle will convince us of our inherent folly in assuming we will forever be Earth’s dominant species, we balk—because why wouldn’t we? His statement seems laughable at best, and evidence of his mental instability at worse. Yet, in proving that the Kingdom of Insects will eventually dominate the globe due to a brilliant combination of groupthink, corporeal efficiency and sheer attrition, the film is a convincing case for, at the very least, respecting the lives of those creatures we habitually take for granted. Filmed in sumptuous close-up, timelapse and nearly suffocating intimacy with worlds that, typically unavailable to us, feel completely alien, The Hellstrom Chronicle gleefully farts all over stuffy nature documentaries and sci-fi B-movies and cheap-o public access diatribes in order to come up with a viewing experience that is awful, hilarious and terrifying all at once. —D.S. 91. Biggie & Tupac Director: Nick Broomfield Year: 2002 From its very first moments, Biggie & Tupac—a sort of truther’s glimpse into the murders of rappers Notorious BIG and 2Pac—is an exceptionally strange film. Director and narrator Nick Broomfield speaks in a clipped cadence, as if English isn’t his first language, and Earth isn’t his home planet. That he is somehow able to waddle his way into the most exclusive (and sometimes terrifying) situations is nearly incomprehensible, until one realizes that, to some extent, all his weirdness probably makes him seem so non-threatening that the folks who spill deeply incriminating confessions probably never figure his footage will ever see the light of day. And yet, Biggie & Tupac is endlessly compelling, far from an actually competent procedural but still ringing with enough sincerity that, buried beneath Broomfield’s weirdness and his very dubious journalistic intentions, there must be something true he’s tapping into. I’ve heard Broomfield referred to, among other epithets, as a “bottom-feeding creep,” and it’s not a stretch to see how his methods and results could be construed as the work of such. Yet, the access the man gets … when it comes to documentary film, do the ends justify the means? Because: the last 10 minutes of the film alone are worth the journey, in which an interview with Suge Knight (whom the film pretty clearly portrays as the orchestrator of both murders) reveals unnerving opinions on socioeconomic and racial realities. —D.S. 90. Fambul Tok Director: Sara Terry Year: 2011 In this incredible documentary, people of the African nation of Sierra Leone practice an ancient ritual of family talk called Fambul Tok. These are citizens whose lives were horrifically changed by civil war, a time when family members became killers of their own families, when where torture and cruelty were everyday occurrences—a time when, even though the fighting had finished, rapists and murderers still walked among the victims and victims’ families with impunity. Yet, instead of imprisonment, perpetrators are reconciled with the citizenry through Fambul Tok. The film portrays a body of people who demonstrate a remarkable amount of tolerance and forgiveness as they gather to heal the emotional scars of everything they’ve endured. Sierra Leone, we learn, has a saying that sums it up best: “There is no place to throw away a bad child.” —Tim Basham 89. Bus 174 Director: Felipe Lacerda, Jose Padilha Year: 2003 On July 12, 2000, a young homeless man named Sando took hostage a bus carrying 11 people on a busy Rio de Janeiro street. Because of the police force’s ineptitude, the area around the bus was never secured and TV reporters were able to place their cameras within just a few yards, broadcasting the entire ordeal live. Bus 174 wants to be more than just an account of a hostage drama, exploring the class issues that eventually steered the young man toward crisis, as well as why the police had such a difficult time resolving it. Though the movie is more sympathetic to the gunman than some viewers might appreciate, look only to its opening helicopter shot, which tracks the bus’s normal route, highlights the enormous division in Rio. By situating a hostage drama within a larger socioeconomic setting, Bus 174 forces the audience to see the story as so much more than just a spectacle. —J. Robert Parks 88. Helvetica Director: Gary Hustwit Year: 2007 What’s in a font? Gary Hustwit examines the go-to typeface, now almost 60 years old, in this fascinating look at graphic design and its effects on sensory-overloaded consumers. Along with an inherent self-awareness comes a po-mo debate about aesthetics and global impact, from corporate and pop culture to the warfront. Lest we take for granted the efficiency of the images we encounter every waking minute, Helvetica probes the reasons for its namesake’s ubiquity, as well as the psychology and politics behind its multi-purpose appeal. Straightforward, agreeable and with few stylistic frills, the film—the first in a “design” trilogy including Objectified and Urbanized—echoes its subject. (Full disclosure: The above was originally written in Arial. Cough.) -A.S. 87. Brooklyn Castle Director: Katie Dellamaggiore Year: 2012 The premise behind Brooklyn Castle is the stuff of soppy, Oscar-baiting drama: At I.S. 138 in Brooklyn, New York, a competitive chess program has helped an extraordinary number of lower-income inner city students improve their standings in life. Which makes the triumphs and failures of these kids all the more biting. More than just a run through a delightful roster of vibrant young people, Brooklyn Castle is as much about the struggles of public schools with funding and the suffering extracurricular world of your typical student. It’s is a timely cry for help from a broken educational system. —Dan Schindel 86. How to Survive a Plague Directors: David France Year: 2012 A New York journalist who has covered the AIDS epidemic for 30 years, first-time filmmaker David France has assembled both a superbly researched record of the decade-long fight for a viable treatment protocol and an intimate portrait of the personalities leading the charge. Serendipitously, the arrival of HIV coincided with the availability of consumer-grade camcorders, and as a result, much of this developing story—from private conversations to public protests—was recorded for posterity. France combines this historic footage, courtesy of more than 30 videographers, with archival news reports and present-day interviews to craft a complete picture of the founding, mission, strategies, in-fighting, splintering, failures and successes of ACT UP, a Greenwich Village-based protest group that forced government agencies and health organizations to take AIDS seriously and invest in finding a cure. Yet, by the time this story ends in 1996, with the development of a combination drug therapy that actually works, 8.2 million people had died. How to Survive is indeed a tale of survival, but the AIDS community didn’t get there without a fight—and a steep personal toll. —Annlee Ellingson 85. Born into Brothels Directors: Zana Briski, Ross Kauffman Year: 2004 Zana Briski was working as a documentary photographer in Calcutta when she began teaching photography to the children of prostitutes. The resulting film, Born into Brothels, though not without controversy, offered a glimpse into the difficult lives of the kids who were finally given a medium and a voice to document their lives. Briski’s continued Kids With Cameras project offers hope and a path for some of these children to find new opportunities outside the brothels, but there’s no candy-coating the difficulties facing them, even once they’ve headed off to school. If the documentary form has any sort of social-shaking effect, in Born into Brothels the form finds its most welcome, most populist purpose. —Josh Jackson 84. Waltz with Bashir Director: Ari Folman Year: 2008 As much about memory’s hallucinatory inventions as the facts of the 1982 massacre at a Palestinian refugee camp in Beirut by the so-called Phalangist Christian militia, Ari Folman’s animated Waltz with Bashir begins with 26 barking dogs rushing through a city—from there, the emotion builds, relentlessly. Though Folman, a veteran Israeli documentarian, calls Bashir a documentary based on the interviews at its core (mostly with fellow soldiers), his cameras go places the handiest cinematographer could never venture: Beams of light bend between branches during a forest battle; and the dream images of men rising naked from the sea—while balls of fire fall from the sky—are just as real as the chasm-like blank spots in Folman’s mind as he reconstructs his mission into Lebanon. Powerful beyond a doubt, especially during a fourth-wall shattering climax, Waltz with Bashir borrows the visually manifest mind games of Richard Linklater’s Waking Life or A Scanner Darkly and dances them to the deep end. —Jesse Jarnow 83. Dark Days Director: Marc Singer Year: 2000 Marc Singer never intended to be a filmmaker when he befriended a few groups from New York’s homeless community; he never intended to move in for a few months with the denizens of the Freedom Tunnel when he became so close them. And he never intended a documentary, crewed by its own subjects, as anything more than a way to financially help those same subjects. Yet, despite Singer’s less-than-artistic origins, Dark Days rings with unmitigated sincerity—so immersive as to be practically claustrophobic, capturing in stark chiaroscuro a world suffocating beneath the City. It’s rare that a documentary feels almost too up close and personal. —D.S. 82. The Imposter Director: Burt Layton Year: 2013 From the beginning, it’s obvious The Imposter is going to be a thriller—which it is, and then some. Three years after the disappearance of their 13-year-old son, a Texas family receive word he’s been found in Spain. When they go to pick him up, they’re so desperate to believe he’s alive that they don’t even notice that the “boy” is actually a French man in his mid-twenties. Is it a monumental case of grief and hope blinding sense, or is there a darker explanation? Director Bart Layton mixes elements of documentary and narrative filmmaking seamlessly, uncovering in each and every character he encounters more of a treasure trove of odd nonfiction than the last, crafting endlessly compelling portraits of people willing to push their lies to obsessive, and ultimately sad, extremes. —M.D. 81. 12 O’Clock Boys Directors: Lotfy Nathan Year: 2013 An elegant mix between a scrappy visual bildungsroman of a 13-year-old Baltimore youth and a cursory glance at the dirt-bike and four-wheeler culture that’s risen to near legendary status in the city, 12 O’Clock Boys is a gorgeously shot testament to the social climate that has made Baltimore such a focus for racial and institutional tension in the past two weeks. But don’t dare compare this to The Wire—Nathan’s documentary is almost totally removed from any particular time. Instead, it’s concerned more with the quotidian, how the City’s youth live for their bikes, for the thrill of testing their physical limits, for the freedom and personality such machines afford them in a place that rarely allows them to ever express the same. Baltimore’s problems have been indelible to its personality for so long, and yet, as embraced by Pug—our protagonist, the boy who obsesses over joining the 12 O’Clock Boys, Baltimore’s so-called biker gang—the City is a complex web of thoroughfares and blank slates ready to be etched into stone by anyone with a motor and a death wish. Between goose-pimply vignettes of the 12 O’Clock boys posturing for the camera—popping wheelies and grinning wildly—and sobering passages in which Pug’s family (and friends) face one tragedy after another, the film is moored to the foundation of Pug’s dream: That one day he too will be legend. —D.S. 80. Jiro Dreams of Sushi Directors: David Gelb Year: 2012 Jiro Dreams of Sushi is about one of the greatest masters of the culinary world, one of whom casual foodies have never even heard. Although Jiro’s work—literally, the dishes he so effortlessly prepares, and then the act of watching him as he watches his customers eating the dishes—is ostensibly the film’s focus, the story is truly propelled by the chef’s relationship with his two sons: the youngest started his own restaurant, and the oldest, at the age of 50, continues to work with his father, training to one day take over Jiro’s infamous restaurant. Devoid of the typical familial jealousy you may expect (and so devoid, arguably, of much conflict at all), Jiro Dreams of Sushi is only a beautifully filmed documentary about three men who have devoted their lives to the pursuit of perfection. Which in itself is conflict enough, as the film airily asks: Where do style, artistry, practice and perfection meet? —Emily Kirkpatrick 79. National Gallery Director: Frederick Wiseman Year: 2014 National Gallery focuses on problem-solving and theory, which prove together to foster a fascinating juxtaposition. On one hand, a museum is a business that has to worry about economics and marketing—but on the other, its mission is grander, connecting us with our cultural, as well as our political, history. But Frederick Wiseman never beats us over the head with these observations: We glean them from the footage he compiles, in which the daily business of running a museum is undertaken with crisp precision. In this way, National Gallery is itself open to interpretation as much as the paintings on display are. There are far more questions and suggestions in this film than there are firm answers—about the meaning of art or anything else. And in kind, Wiseman (as is his wont) doesn’t show any interest in judging what he sees. As he’s done with several of his recent films, the man lends a sympathetic, slightly detached perspective to National Gallery, portraying a sense of a place, its mission and its struggles. —Tim Grierson 78. The Square Director: Jehane Noujaim Year: 2013 Bringing calm insight to an impassioned, still-developing historic event, The Square looks at the 2011 Egyptian Revolution from the perspective of those who were on the frontlines from the very beginning, personalizing the dramatic developments without losing a sense of greater stakes. Director Jehane Noujaim, who previously helmed Control Room and co-directed Startup.com, has delivered a snapshot of a grassroots political movement over its bumpy two-year history, embracing the emotional complexity and logistical obstacles that have made Egyptians’ road to democracy so difficult. Using no voiceover narration and only a handful of intertitles that inform the viewer about the exact time period of events, The Square seeks to create an urgent, immediate experience that tells its story through the reactions of its main participants. In the West, the scenes of peaceful, joyous protest at Tahrir Square were warmly greeted as hopeful signs of a new Middle East. The Square doesn’t throw cold water on those hopes as much as it meticulously demonstrates that systemic change does not come easily. That’s why you care so deeply about the people you see in this movie—it’s not that their quest is easy but that it’s so very hard. —T.G. 77. Nanook of the North Director: Robert J. Flaherty Year: 1922 A groundbreaking documentary that isn’t really a documentary, Robert J. Flaherty’s seminal, silent work takes liberties with the life of an Eskimo family in Northern Quebec. As Flaherty follows the Inuk clan, staging scenes, advising his subjects, flat-out fudging details and otherwise ramping up the onscreen drama, he nonetheless manages a remarkably authentic portrait of man vs. nature. The transportive power of cinema is rarely more evident than here, in what afforded the earliest moviegoing audiences a glimpse of a remote existence they’d never experience otherwise. And of course, regardless of its truth, this milestone of verité filmmaking was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the U.S. National Film Registry. —A.S. 76. Koyaanisqatsi Director: Godfrey Reggio Year: 1982 The first in a trilogy that explores the symbiosis—or lack there of—between humankind, nature and technology, uniformly depicted without dialogue or narration, is a cult film that only within the past year saw a high-definition release. Which is a shame, because Koyaanisqatsi’s visual splendor is not anything that should be digested with less than optimal aesthetic conditions. A cosmically broad, all-encompassing montage of everything from oil fields to mall escalators, from hot dog factories to the demolition of housing projects, from microchip layouts to aerials of arteries of urban planning as it’s seemingly always exited, the film isn’t so much a documentary as it is futurist’s tone poem. After all it is literally about everything, nothing less than the totality of modernity, timelapsed and slo-mo’d and hypercolored to the point of absolute synergy: life as motion as life, forever and ever, amen. —D.S. 75. Life Itself Director: Steve James Year: 2014 Life Itself may tell the story of a remarkable life, but it’s at its most enlightening when dealing with death. Steve James’s documentary on Roger Ebert naturally chronicles its subject’s exploits, trials and triumphs as he became the most recognizable film critic in the United States. But it weaves his life story around footage shot during the last months of his life, as we see the effect his impairments and mortality have on him and his loved ones. While the director’s best-known works like Hoop Dreams and The Interrupters mainly use location footage and naturalistic interviews shot by James James himself, the historical segments of Life Itself take on a slick production quality that would be more closely associated with Ken Burns—complete with old photos and archival footage. While the movie jumps around chronologically, its contemporary footage is the pivot on which it all turns. But James is most at home while working with his own footage, and that’s where the movie really shines. Shooting began a few months before Ebert’s death, but no one knew that the end would come so soon. Ebert had been publicly battling cancer for several years, after all; surgeries and subsequent complications in 2006 left him with no jaw, nearly unrecognizable and unable to eat without tubes or speak without a computer. When James joins him, Ebert is doing even worse after breaking his hip. It’s fitting that Ebert often professed his love for documentaries that unfold in a way the filmmakers couldn’t have predicted when production began. He would have loved this one. —Jeremy Mathews 74. Inside Job Director: Charles Ferguson Year: 2010 Matt Damon narrates this excoriating exposé of the Powers That Be behind the 2008 financial collapse. Not that we aren’t aware of the corporate machines whose wanton disregard for global consequences precipitated the “completely avoidable” economic devastation—but it’s doubtful we knew the extent of what is essentially fraud and its reach back throughout history. Enter Charles Ferguson’s bracing, exhaustive doc. The Oscar-winning film traces the national hemorrhage from deregulation through credit and housing speculation, “The Bubble” to the ensuing crisis, bailouts, and subsequent attempts at reform. The corollary timeline makes perfect sense, and it’s mind-boggling. Ferguson’s tone, while polemic, is cut by its incredulous humor and sharp pacing. You’ll be pissed, but you’ll also be riveted. —A.S. 73. High School Director: Frederick Wiseman Year: 1968 Today, watching High School feels at best like visiting with a curio: Steeped in minutiae and unsurprisingly thorough given the way in which director Frederick Wiseman takes an institutional term as a palimpsest all over which to scrawl meaning and feeling, the film operates as straightforwardly as it seemingly can. But in 1968, the intimacy Wiseman wrenched out of his subjects was practically scandalous—not only was he defining a film movement that to him was filmmaking as a matter of fact, but he was getting much too into the awkward lives of teenagers already burdened with the embarrassment of growing up. And yet, the sentiment that still bears such incriminating weight, all these decades later, is that in High School, Wiseman is leering at these children. It’s uncomfortable, actually: How his camera lingers over dancing girls in rompers, focusing on their butts, on their litheness, on the fact that they have no idea we’re watching. When, later in the film, we sit in on sex education seminars for each of the sexes, wherein abstinence is an ambiguous suggestion and the first dregs of promiscuity peek their pimply noses over the purview of these myopic children, Wiseman’s approach bears the burden of prescience. High school isn’t about learning, it’s about staring: Waiting for those inevitable urges to bubble to the surface, and then exploiting them for all they’re worth. —D.S. 72. Cave of Forgotten Dreams Director: Werner Herzog Year: 2010 Werner Herzog’s Cave of Forgotten Dreams is the story of humanity’s oldest surviving pieces of artwork: everything they can teach us about ourselves and how we got here. It’s yet another one of those seemingly random yet functionally primordial bits of human minutia that the German director’s imagination so often keys upon, and in this case it yielded one of his most placidly beautiful, intimate films. As Herzog provides minimal narration, drifting with his camera through Chauvet Cave in southern France, the film unfolds rather like an educational movie that one might watch at a museum or informational kiosk at a historical site, except infused with the director’s personal, unflagging sense of wonder. Here, we learn the stories and historical perspective behind the oldest cave paintings on record, estimated at 32,000 years old, the product of some of the first modern human beings in Europe. The walls depict vivid impressions of their surroundings—and in some sense breaches the fabric of their imaginations. The film has that same sleepy, oneiric quality; it’s never in any hurry, and it feels remarkably self-sufficient, thanks to the three-person crew that filmed the entire thing due to French law regarding access to the caves. Herzog himself even worked the lights, in what is also his only 3D film, offering moving, unprecedented, tactile access to a piece of our biological history which the majority of us will never be able to see in even our wildest dreams. —Jim Vorel 71. Man on Wire Directors: James Marsh Year: 2005 In 1974, high-wire walker Philippe Petit fulfilled a longstanding dream by sneaking into New York’s World Trade Center, stringing a cable between the tops of the two towers, and (with almost unfathomable guts and without a net) walking across it, back and forth, for almost an hour. The man is clearly a nut, but he’s also a great storyteller with a heck of a story, and Man on Wire gives him a chance to tell it. Petit’s stunt was both an engineering challenge and a test of, well, a test of something that most of us don’t possess in this much quantity. Filmmaker James Marsh uses standard documentary techniques, combining new interviews, as well as a satisfying pile of footage and photographs, with re-enactments that both build the kind of suspense more suitable to a caper movie and shade the film’s climactic moment with all due respect for (yet, thankfully, no literal mention of) the visceral symbolism of the two buildings that are no longer there. The title comes from the report written by a police officer on the scene; he was more than a little uncertain about how to respond to the audacity on display. —R.D. 70. Detropia Directors: Heidi Ewing, Rachel Grady Year: 2012 Detropia paints a modern likeness of the City of Detroit as the United States’ greatest failure, and perhaps its most representative example of the untenable nature of the so-called American Dream. But the film is rarely as big as it’d like to be. Though there’s something there to dissect about the dissolution of the middle class—how that doesn’t really mean much of anything anymore—directors Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady can’t seem to get past a melancholic tone and make a serious case about American exceptionalism dooming the rest of the country in the same way. And yet, basic facts are brutal: How in 1955, 1.86 million people lived in the city, but by the time the film was made, there were less than 800,000 people; how there are currently 40 square miles of vacant land within city limits. Detroit is simply too big, and the film struggles underneath that weight. Ewing is from Detroit suburb Farmington Hills, and as someone who also grew up in the area, I recognize sincerity and possessiveness in the way the film chronicles the city’s current plight. Which is maybe why, despite all of the despair and slow-burning nightmares and wreckage it portrays, Detropia ends on a hopeful beat, more of a lullaby than a soundless death throe. It’s quite beautiful. —D.S. 69. F is for Fake Director: Orson Welles Year: 1974 The extent to which you’ll enjoy F is for Fake probably depends on the extent to which you believe a documentary needs to have a point, or stick to that point, or not use the point as a platform from which to grift the audience. The film is half-documentary, half-biography (…of several people at once, including director Orson Welles), and half-excuse for Welles to wear a vampire cape. It starts as a delightful analysis of authenticity and art centered around art forger Elmyr de Hory. Welles focuses on the question of whether de Hory’s work, as good as it is at mimicking the work of famous artists, is also great art, even if it is faking somebody else’s work. But then the film begins to weave other stories into the mix: for example, de Hory’s biographer, Clifford Irving, was, at some point in the filming process, revealed to have faked a biography of Howard Hughes. Welles plays with the boundaries between truth and fiction, wondering if the very act of replication—in other words, filming people who are either acting as they would anyways or pretending to have feelings—is no different than forging art. F is for Fake is whimsical to the point where it refuses to really answer any of its own questions, but there’s a joy here that’s compelling … even if the whole thing’s a con. —M.A. 68. This Is Not a Film Directors: Jafar Panahi, Mojtaba Mirtahmasb Year: 2012 In December 2010, renowned Iranian director Jafar Panahi (Offside) was sentenced to six years in prison and banned from making films for 20. His crime? Supporting the opposition party during Iran’s highly charged 2009 election. Three months later, on the eve of the Iranian New Year, while his wife and children are away delivering gifts, Panahi is home alone in his apartment. He turns on a camera. What follows is a document of the day-to-day life of a man under house arrest: He spreads jam on bread; he brews tea; he feeds his daughter’s pet iguana; he calls his family; he checks in with his lawyer. But This Is Not a Film also evolves into a provocative meditation on the nature of filmmaking itself, because, although he has been barred from directing films, writing screenplays, leaving the country and conducting interviews, Panahi’s sentence says nothing about reading or acting, so this is what he does in front of a camera, explaining what his most recent film would have been about had he been allowed to make it. Like René Magritte’s The Treachery of Images, in which the artist scrawls the words “This is not a pipe” under a painting of just such a smoking device, this is not a film but a representation of one. Which, in fact, might make it all the more truthful. —A.E. 67. At Berkeley Director: Frederick Wiseman Year: 2013 Frederick Wiseman is a national treasure, a filmmaker who has spent his career diligently and perceptively documenting institutions, whether they be mental hospitals (Titicut Follies) or French burlesque clubs (Crazy Horse). At Berkeley is one of his best, and one of his longest: a four-hour examination of the University of California at Berkeley that chronicles everything from administrative meetings to classroom lectures. With Wiseman’s trademark restraint—rather than interviewing his subjects, Wiseman simply stands back and observes them in their natural habitat—he asks us to consider the college experience as a microcosm for the world with its warring philosophies and agendas. And if Wiseman’s thesis is accurate, we live in a pretty remarkable world. —T.G. 66. Général Idi Amin Dada: Autoportrait Director: Barbet Schroeder Year: 1974 Roger Ebert once criticized this film for not being “a very good documentary.” And it’s absolutely true that this isn’t, at least on the subject of Idi Amin’s three-year rule of Uganda (at the time of filming), or of Uganda itself, or of Amin as a mass murderer. Still, Général Idi Amin Dada: Autoportrait is a fascinating portrait of how Amin saw himself in 1974, and how Amin was a precocious self-mythmaker. Amin’s sense of self is incredible—only three years after the military coup that brought him into power, he displays a level of self-aggrandizement here that simply doesn’t seem possible. That conceit remains consistent throughout, in spite of the fact that most of the scenes in the film that are meant to show off Amin’s power were clearly staged for the benefit of the cameras. So while I do wish director Barbet Schroeder had done more with the film’s offhanded suggestion that Amin is not just the result of colonialism but also a reflection of Western colonial ideology—in context, it comes off more like a half-assed way to address the fact that this film is kind of exploitative than it does an actual argument—in the sense that this is a look at how a mass murderer might present himself to the world, Autoportrait is a compelling study of (in)humanity. —M.A. 65. Actress Director: Robert Greene Year: 2014 Robert Greene uses what might be considered sleight of hand with Actress. The director of Kati With an I and Fake It So Real, Greene presents Actress as a portrait of Brandy Burre, an actress whose showiest credit was a recurring role on The Wire. She left her profession behind to focus on motherhood, but now that it’s been a few years, she’s getting the itch to start acting again. This would seem to indicate that Actress will be a look into Burre’s comeback, probably with insights into the struggles of a 30-something actress who’s been out of the game. Except that’s just one facet of Actress, which confidently wanders along with Burre as she begins to make decisions that don’t just affect her career but her home life. The surprises are best not to spoil in Actress, not just because they add to the film’s melancholy spell but because they also enhance Greene’s meditation on role-playing and identity. Those might not have been the filmmaker’s themes when he started, but Burre’s life created the opening, and Greene is smart enough to explore where it leads, serving as a compassionate but clear-eyed witness to her unexpected tribulations. —T.G. 64. Marwencol Director: Jeff Malmberg Year: 2010 One night in 2000, Mark Hogencamp was beaten close to death by five men outside of a bar he frequented. No one really knew why it happened; after nine days in a coma, Hogencamp awoke with severe brain damage and little memory of life before. Unable to pay for intensive therapy, he slowly devised a world of his own to reconstruct in place of the one he’d lost: Marwencol, a World-War-II-era Belgian town made from 1/6th scale hobby sets and GI Joe/Barbie dolls, He populated the place with characters transposed from his life as he knew it—himself, friends and the men who attacked him. In order to find reason, and one assumes come to some sort of closure, Hogencamp—charmingly chain-smoking—acts out serialized plots in his little town, meticulously positioning tiny hands or dragging action figure vehicles down back country roads, all the while in thrall to every trivial detail within his control. Marwencol explores Hogencamp’s imagination as he attempts to rediscover the identity he lost, following the man to New York when his photos of Marwencol are featured in Esopus magazine and shown in an art gallery. The trip proves to be the first time since the accident that Hogencamp’s left his rigorously controlled, excessively private life, and with that director Jeff Malmberg captures him finally getting a grip on the quietly slumbering truths that may have—somehow—brought him to that point. It’s a story rich in awakenings, about the precarious nature of identity and the surprises of spirit awaiting us, somewhere, out of our control, yet held deeply within. —D.S. 63. Stories We Tell Director: Sarah Polley Year: 2013 With Stories We Tell, actress-turned-director Sarah Polley has proven herself a consummate filmmaker, transforming an incredible (and incredibly) personal story into a playful yet profound investigation into the nature of storytelling itself. The central mystery of her documentary—that the man she grew up believing to be her dad is not her biological father—is public knowledge at this point, easily revealed in the film’s trailer. Yet Polley conceals and reveals information—starting with her relationships to her interview subjects—in such an effortless way as to constantly surprise, even shock, her audience. The result is a film that scrutinizes the ultimate purpose of truth and comes up with a gorgeously rendered shrug. —A.E. 62. Paris is Burning Director: Jennie Livingston Year: 1991 Madonna’s “voguing” phase has nothing on—that is, took everything from—the drag scene of 1980s New York City chronicled in this vibrant doc. Delving into the subculture of fierce, catwalk-styled posing and the clubs in which it thrived, Jennie Livingston depicts the less-than-glamorous realities of life as a drag queen before RuPaul was mainstream: issues of gender and sexual identity, race, bigotry and hate, HIV/AIDS, poverty, crime—theft is a commonplace means by which these would-be “Legends” seek a desired end: transformation. Named after one of the underground balls in which its subjects find a sense of family—in “houses,” no less—Paris is Burning is a joyous affair, and a curiously meta celebration of what it means “to be real.” —A.S. 61. When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts Director: Spike Lee Year: 2006 Part indictment of FEMA and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, part celebration of the unfailingly resilient spirit of New Orleans, Spike Lee’s four-hour-long look at “The City That Care Forgot” a year after the near-obliteration of Hurricane Katrina is an exhausting, comprehensive, worthwhile experience. There’s a reason so many residents refer to the catastrophe as the “Federal flood” and not Katrina itself—Lee’s Peabody-winning doc examines the systemic failure at all levels of government to maintain the storm barriers and deal with the consequences of their negligence. It’s political, it’s racial, it’s accusatory and it’s utterly compelling viewing. It’s also inspiring, thanks to the resolute locals shown struggling to survive and rebuild in the disaster’s aftermath. This is very much a Spike Lee joint; don’t expect anyone in the Dubya administration to come away without a tongue-lashing. But the heart and soul of the doc is the people of New Orleans, and they won’t let you down—on the contrary. —A.S. 60. The Last Waltz Director: Martin Scorsese Year: 1978 Martin Scorsese’s painstaking attention to detail—particularly in the editing booth here, alongside Jan Roblee and Yeu-Bun Yee—secures this film’s place among the best rock documentaries ever made. A tapestry of American music is interwoven with the farewell concert by roots outfit The Band—who most famously backed Bob Dylan in the 1960s—who invite viewers onstage for an all-star jam with an astonishing lineup of guest players: Dylan himself; Eric Clapton; Muddy Waters; Joni Mitchell; Neil Young; Dr. John; Ringo Starr … for starters. The backstories are rich, the drug use is infamous, the friendships are complicated, but the music remains the thread that binds them all together. Scorsese’s portrait stays true to that, even if, after 16 years on the road, it’s painfully clear these guys need to “take a load off” like whoa. —A.S. 59. Roger & Me Director: Michael Moore Year: 1989 Self-aggrandizing provocateur Michael Moore made a name for himself with this doc, in which he tours his hometown of Flint, Michigan, in the wake of GM’s closure of local factories. As the company outsources labor to Mexico, crippling Flint’s workforce, infrastructure and collective psyche, Moore totes his camera around in search of then CEO and president Roger B. Smith to get answers and, you know, be Michael doing Michael. He poses as a TV reporter to get the word on the (crime-ridden) streets, and then a shareholder to crash a GM convention. His lens encounters a who’s who of visiting conservative personalities (Pat Boone, televangelist Robert Schuller, Ronald Reagan), along with outraged blue collar citizens. It’s a pointed (if highly manipulative) commentary on class and capitalism—and gonzo demagogue Moore at his most tolerable. —A.S. 58. The Overnighters Director: Jesse Moss Year: 2014 The bulk of The Overnighters is about Williston, ND. It may not be the most happening city in the United States, but it is one of the fastest growing thanks to the controversial fracking boom and subsequent influx of jobs. Thankfully, Moss leaves the fracking debate for other documentaries to handle. In turn, he focuses on the economically challenged men who seek work in the area, and the harsh realities they find instead. Rather than the instant riches and six-figure salaries afforded a lucky few, scores of job seekers are left to fend for themselves, living out of cars and alienated by a less-than-welcoming community. The notable exception is Lutheran pastor Jay Reinke, who happily throws open the doors of his Williston church with a housing program dubbed “The Overnighters.” Without the consent of his congregation, Reinke invites these desperate pilgrims to make the building their temporary (or semi-permanent) residence. For Reinke, this radical act of charity is simply the Christian thing to do. For many of his parishioners, it’s an uncomfortable intrusion on their spiritual sanctuary—especially when the local paper prints a list of registered sex offenders in the area and a few of those names are Overnighters. One even lives in Reinke’s own home, with the approval of Reinke’s wife and three children. The experience of The Overnighters is about so much more than just what does or doesn’t drive Reinke. It’s about what’s happening in America right now, how we can have as many abstract discussions about economics, the environment, crime and punishment, and religion as we want, but that these abstract ideas have real impacts on real people. —Geoff Berkshire 57. Land Without Bread Director: Luis Buñuel Year: 1933 Ever since the Maysles and Frederick Wiseman and D.A. Pennebaker became direct cinema heroes in the 1960s, cinéma vérité has become something of a default method for documentary filmmakers—the less mitigated the experience, the more illuminating the truth. But the further one digs into the form’s origins, the more an ethnography like Luis Buñuel’s Land Without Bread begins to rear its suspiciously exaggerated head. An exploration of the Las Hurdes region in Spain, where inhabitants are steeped in such poverty that the idea of “bread” is alien to them, Buñuel’s account is part travelogue, and part surrealist parody of the kinds of over-exoticized travelogues of the time. In attempting to describe the extent of the region’s scarcity (where one practice is to take in random orphans in order to claim the government welfare that accompanies them), Buñuel spares no brutal detail, setting out to make these peoples’ lives seem as excruciating as possible. Undoubtedly over the top, yet terribly stirring, the film claims that one doesn’t have to look far to find a compelling documentary subject—sadness and devastation can be found right in your backyard. —D.S. 56. King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters Director: Seth Gordon Year: 2007 In Seth Gordon’s feature directorial debut, newcomer Steve Wiebe challenges longtime world-champion Donkey Kong player Billy Mitchell for the highest score in the game’s history. After it becomes obvious that Wiebe may threaten to depose the competitive gaming world’s longtime hero, countless roadblocks are thrown in his path by both Mitchell’s fans and the gaming institution itself. As Wiebe becomes increasingly embroiled in this subculture, he ends up learning ?rsthand about the disturbing lengths people will go to in order to be the best at something, regardless of how silly that something may be. A comedy in the vein of Errol Morris’s earliest documents of humanistic absurdity, the ?lm’s contest is every bit as exciting as anything you’d find in a 30 for 30 ?lm, while shedding light on how obsessions can combine with corrupt power structures to drive otherwise normal people to ridiculous ends. —Sean Gandert 55. Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father Director: Kurt Kuenne Year: 2008 Kurt Kuenne was childhood friends with a man named Andrew Bagby, who, in late 2001, was murdered by ex-girlfriend Shirley Turner. Relieved he’d finally put an end to a turbulent relationship, he had no idea Turner was pregnant. So she killed him, then fled to Newfoundland, where she gave birth to Bagby’s son, Zachary. This is how Dear Zachary begins: a visual testament to both Andrew Bagby’s life, as well as the enduring hearts of his parents, who, as Kuenne chronicles, moved to Newfoundland after their son’s murder to begin proceedings to gain custody of Zachary. Kuenne only meant the film to be a gift, a love letter to his friend postmarked to Zachary, to allow the baby to one day get to know his father via the many, many people who loved him most. Told in interviews, photos, phone calls, seemingly every piece of detritus from one man’s life, Kuenne’s eulogy is an achingly sad portrait of someone who, in only 28 years, deeply affected the lives of so many people around him. And then Dear Zachary transforms into something profoundly else. It begins to take on the visual language and tone of an infuriating true-crime account, painstakingly detailing the process by which Bagby’s parents gained custody and then—just as they were beginning to find some semblance of consolation—faced their worst nightmares. The film at times becomes exquisitely painful, but Kuenne has a natural gift for tension and pacing that neither exploits the material nor drags the audience through melodramatic mud. In retrospect, Dear Zachary’s expositional approach may seem a bit cloying, but that’s only because Kuenne is willing to tell a story with all the disconsolate surprise of the tragedy itself. You’re gonna bawl your guts out. —D.S. 54. Citizenfour Director: Laura Poitras Year: 2014 Few documentaries have cameras rolling as history is being made. But director Laura Poitras found herself in the middle of momentous times while making Citizenfour, which takes us behind the scenes as NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden works with (among others) journalist Glenn Greenwald to expose the organization’s systematic surveillance of everyday Americans. From the worried initial meetings in a Hong Kong hotel room to the later fallout across the globe, Citizenfour has the rush of a thriller, humanizing its subjects so that we see the uncertainty and anxiety coursing through them—along with the guts and indignation. —T.G. 53. Taxi to the Dark Side Director: Alex Gibney Year: 2007 A shade overshadowed by controversy surrounding the film’s distribution and promotion, Taxi to the Dark Side is still a punishing document of American imperialism—both a product and condemnation of the democratic system that’s failed us for so long. Part post-9/11 discourse on torture and those who facilitate it for a so-called greater good, and part slowly simmering nightmare, Gibney’s film draws out a labyrinth of bureaucracy only slightly less enraging than the feeling of sitting there, watching this documentary, knowing there’s pretty much nothing you can do. This is the way the world ends—not with a bang but with the whimper of a man being tortured to death. —D.S. 52. Welfare Director: Frederick Wiseman Year: 1975 An unholy mess of dog-eared government forms, sad-sack stories of disappeared husbands, suicidal tendencies and public servants with permanently prickly demeanors, Welfare gets in the face of a civil edifice with the same fearlessness and devotion as any other Wiseman joint. For almost three hours, we sit by—sometimes idly, and sometime rapt—in the midst of a welfare office in New York in the middle of the 1970s, listening to applicants and recipients explain their cases to (mostly) deadpan employees. We’re exposed to the many-sorted maladies of a modern urban malaise: psychiatric, educational or racial; due to addiction, bad luck or some sort of institution. Though every story rings with a dull tone of tragedy, in time, all that sound runs together, and the viewer finds relief in white noise. But Welfare’s homogeneity may even be its point—beneath the tedium and repetition of hearing countless people voice one complaint after another, there crouches a harsher truth: If New York is supposed to be a microcosm of our species, then we are a people absolutely brimming with pain. —D.S. 51. Hearts of Darkness Directors: Fax Bahr, George Hickenlooper, Eleanor Coppola Year: 1991 There’s no movie industry machine to fault for Francis Ford Coppola’s own personal brand of apocalypse, just the immensity of the production itself—self-financed by the director—and his relentless need to make Apocalypse Now his crowning artistic achievement. This means that Coppola’s surreal Vietnam odyssey, which reached a whopping 265 days of principal photography, was, somewhere in the director’s brilliant, anxiety-riddled mind, his definitive statement on what it took for any human being to make a massive piece of art like Apocalypse Now. The experience was, as he tells a crowd at the very beginning of the making-of doc Hearts of Darkness, not about the Vietnam War; it was the Vietnam War. Far from an exaggeration, Hearts of Darkness spends 90 minutes defending that initial statement, and after millions of dollars, a heart attack, a number of psychological collapses, serious drug abuse, a rebellion in the Philippines, threats of suicide, and endless rewrites to John Milius’s almost-legendary script, the audience might be hard-pressed to disagree with Coppola’s assessment. In fact, one wonders—along with practically everyone involved—if Apocalypse Now was even worth the trouble, despite a respectable awards showing and suitable box-office returns. Because at the heart of all that turmoil was an impenetrable something that Coppola spent nearly a year trying to find. In the end, just like in the Joseph Conrad novel upon which the film was based, it’s hard to tell if Coppola ever found what he was looking for. —D.S. 50. Calcutta Director: Louis Malle Year: 1969 Calcutta is a confounding, compulsively rewatchable documentary—probably the closest thing we’ll ever get to a cinematic Where’s Waldo book. Louis Malle and his camera seemingly leave no crevice of the Indian city un-glimpsed, rarely commenting, and almost wholly observing, stepping gingerly through the slums or weaving helplessly through traffic, as if the full truth of a metropolitan area of 8 million people could be documented only through comprehensive coverage—as if success in Malle’s mind is measured in the sheer amount of ground one camera can touch. Malle breaks his silence at one point to inform us that projections see the population rising to 20 million by 1990; that never happened, but under the oppressive bulk of that possibility Calcutta shudders. —D.S. 49. The War Game Director: Peter Watkins Year: 1967 In the final moments of this film, a child, dripping with blood and coated in ash, says, “I don’t want to grow up to be nothing.” Based on interviews with leading professionals, extensive research and a heady dose of well-educated speculation, Peter Watkins’ The War Game exists in a sort of interstitial reality between documentary and drama. Using mostly non-actors to portray Watkins’ estimation of what a nuclear holocaust in the UK would be like, the film conjures up an alternate reality in which an unsuspecting population freefalls into total annihilation. What’s scarier than the images Watkins depicts of people burning alive or of a riot erupting in the midst of the desperate institution of martial law—all (obviously) dramatized but all very difficult to watch—is also one of the film’s most trenchant truths: the lack of awareness most citizens have of the devastation our elected leaders have at their disposal. If we became suddenly aware that our future generations could grow up to be nothing—to mean nothing in the grand scheme of things—we’d have no idea how to prevent it. —D.S. 48. Little Dieter Needs to Fly Director: Werner Herzog Year: 1997 The story of former fighter pilot Dieter Dengler, told in his own words, is one that, while pretty unbelievable, best illustrates the mastery manipulation of the man helping tell it. Werner Herzog makes no apologies for the way he so often bends truth to more snugly serve the grandeur he finds in the subjects he chooses for his documentaries—but he’s never been interested in unadulterated truth anyway. Instead, he’s in the documentary game for the exultation of truth, conveying it in such a way as to focus on the overpowering emotions at its core. And so, in Little Dieter Needs to Fly, Herzog takes Dengler back to Southeast Asia, where, in the early days of the Vietnam War, he was shot down and taken prisoner, tortured and starved—but then, somewhere within him, found the will to escape. Dengler leads us step by step through this harrowing experience, accompanied by locals who Herzog hired to help Dengler “reenact” the events, and in a sense help him remember. That Herzog later went on to make a narrative feature based on Dengler’s story isn’t at all surprising—Rescue Dawn, starring Christian Bale in the lead role, walks a fine line between harsh reality and patriotic melodrama. Because, as Herzog told Paste more than eight years ago: “Rescue Dawn is not a war movie. It’s a ?lm about the test and trial of men … And survival.” It doesn’t necessarily matter how Dengler escaped, but that he was able to at all. Whatever you want to call it, it was that titular “need” that propelled him onward—and that’s the truth Herzog wants to discover. —D.S. 47. Exit Through the Gift Shop Director: Banksy Year: 2010 When renowned graffiti artist Banksy took the camera away from Thierry Guetta, the man shooting his biopic, and decided that the subject would become the documentarian (and the documentarian, the subject), an incomparably zany (and very, very funny) documentary was born. Against all odds, Mr. Brainwash, as Guetta christens himself, puts on the largest and most profitable street art exhibition in history. The film never quite takes a side on the Warholian question of whether Guetta/Mr. Brainwash is actually a legitimate artist or has merely convinced enough people that he is—or whether those are one and the same, or whether it even matters. But the most compelling theme of the film is its cinematic exploration of Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle: That a phenomenon cannot be observed or measured without simultaneously changing it. Guetta never puts spray can to wood until he’s being documented by Banksy. Does that mean Banksy made him what he is? Destroyed, in some sense, what he was? And is that good or bad, or neither? Banksy’s not saying. —M.D. 46. From the East Director: Chantal Akerman Year: 1993 Chantal Akerman once said, “In my films I follow an opposite trajectory to that of the makers of political films … They have a skeleton, an idea and then they put on flesh: I have in the first place the flesh, the skeleton appears later.” So goes the corporeal nature of From the East, in which Akerman travels to East Germany, and then Moscow, shortly after the institution of perestroika. Her vignettes, devoid of context and explanation, are as rich as they are varied: peasants planting crops, people preparing dinner, streets ever-thickening with snow, someone listening to music—each calmly documented, without any noticeable agenda. Akerman’s intent could be practically anything—a visual reconstruction of the Soviet deconstruction perhaps, or an exploration of the museum of communism, limned in ruin—which seems to be her only intent. And yet, as we watch people waiting, as we watch people reminiscing, as we watch people stand between monoliths and silhouettes, the whole film conjures up an ineffable atmosphere of nostalgia—what these people are nostalgic for is left to us to imagine. —D.S. 45. Crumb Director: Terry Zwigoff Year: 1995 Robert Crumb, one of the most controversial cartoon artists of the late ’60s and ’80s, continues to impress his fans with his eccentric persona and borderline gross perspectives even today. Starting his own Zap Comix in 1968—printed by filmmaker and Beat writer Charles Plymell—he’s since dedicated his time to creating his own work (notably, Fritz the Cat). He also managed to merge his passion for music with his illustrations, as can be seen in the book R. Crumb—The Complete Record Cover Collection, in which you can enjoy his artwork for bands like Big Brother & The Holding Company, Blind Boy Fuller and of course his own musical formation, R. Crumb and his Cheap Suit Serenades. Crumb tends to mix his own personal fetishes and obvious sexual preferences into his work without ever losing face with Freudian clichés. Anyone who has ever studied his comics and other illustrations must have noted that this is not just a man who is evidently hung up on some satirically sexual identification with his characters—derived squealing from his Id—but a man who must depend upon his privacy. A documentary about himself and the people closest to him … Who could be trusted enough to be granted such an intimate insight into his family? There was only one man for the job: friend and fellow cheap suit Terry Zwigoff, who ended up spending nine years on this project. Crumb might make you blush uncontrollably at times—it will definitely leave you with a bit of a gabble in your throat—but as a piece of totally DIY insight into artistic genius, it’s achingly personal. —Roxanne Sancto 44. Lessons of Darkness Director: Werner Herzog Year: 1992 “The collapse of the stellar universe will occur—like creation—in grandiose splendor.” — Blaise Pascal With this quote Lessons of Darkness begins, and so it approaches the aftermath of the Gulf War from the perspective of an alien observer—not so much from another world as functionally from a different dimension, removed and slightly off, then suddenly thrust back into a reality, our reality, brimming with violence and fire. The images to which Herzog lays himself interminably bare are able to be viscerally understood, because they are grandiose: towering, apocalyptic and past the point of logistical comprehension. Every Herzog film comes with at least one near iconic image—an infant desperately gripping an immigrant’s finger; a marching line of slaves down a mountainside; a dwarf laughing himself to death; an infinite vista of windmills—and Lessons of Darkness is no different. Though, it could be said that the whole film is one of those images, a meditation on the glamor of devastation: It’s the logical sequel to Herzog’s Fata Morgana, but even more gorgeous, because there’s probably no more thrilling and unadulterated vision of the sheer cataclysm of the human condition than an oil field—burning until the end of time. —D. S. 43. Muscle Shoals Director: Greg “Freddy” Camalier Year: 2013 Freddy Camalier’s masterly Muscle Shoals is about the beginnings and then the heyday of the recording scene in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, a tiny town that improbably changed the face of rock’n’roll forever. First-timer Camalier is obviously a natural storyteller, but there’s so much more to the doc than promise—the cinematography is lush and beautiful, the editing is crisp and precise, and it’s in turns heartbreaking, inspiring, wry, thought-provoking, nostalgic and genuinely funny. It’s simply a stunning debut film. It helps that Camalier and his producing partner Stephen Badger are after more than just a lesson in musical history: They delve into the Civil Rights Movement and its effect specifically on Alabama, especially as it relates to a Muscle Shoals music scene that was, shockingly enough, lacking in any racial tension. They return again and again to the ancient Native American legend about the river that flows through the town, and the water spirit who lived there, sang songs and protected the town. Not to mention that the personal life of Fame Records founder Rick Hall, the protagonist of the film, is itself worthy of a Faulkner novel. Muscle Shoals is thrilling, it’s engaging, it’s fascinating, it’s stirring, it’s epic—whether you’re a music lover or not. —M.D. 42. Harlan County, USA Director: Barbara Kopple Year: 1976 Years in the making, Barbara Kopple’s Oscar-winning Harlan County, USA joins the families standing behind the miners’ strike against the Duke Power Company at the Brookside Mine in Kentucky, which started in 1972. Though in itself, the film is near heedless examination of the ever-shifting relationships between labor unions and the corporations almost preternaturally bent on dismantling them—not to mention the unsustainable reality of small towns centered wholly around one company (see also: Roger & Me)—what’s perhaps most transgressive about Kopple’s film is the way in which her presence, and that of her crew, steered the course of the documentary’s events. When Duke hired armed guards to accompany scabs into the mines, Kopple infamously claimed that her cameras kept inevitable violence at bay—as well possibly contributing to, among other circumstances, the revelation that former union president Tony Boyle contributed money to the murder of well-loved presidential candidate Joseph Yablonski, who was found, with his whole family, dead in their home not long after the elections (which were also pretty obviously considered corrupt). What began as a documentary about union members’ attempts to unseat Boyle grew to a film about the injustice at the heart of unchecked capitalism. In that evolution Kopple proved that for some of the best documentaries, the value is in the journey, rarely in the destination. —D.S. 41. Gimme Shelter Directors: Albert Maysles, David Maysles, Charlotte Zwerin Year: 1970 The December 1969 killing of Meredith Hunter at a Rolling Stones concert happened, was reported on and was commented on by this very documentary in the space of a year. A duration made to seem even shorter, perhaps, since Gimme Shelter was only the second film about the Rolling Stones that turned out to be less about the Rolling Stones and more about The End of the 1960s—the first being Jean-Luc Goddard’s One Plus One (1968). But duration makes this film important: it’s all reaction, tempered by very little perspective. So while Gimme Shelter does tend to play into the tired Baby Boomer narrative that the violence at Altamont was the straw that broke the camel of Woodstock’s back, marking a definitive end to The Hopes and Dreams of the 1960s, its depiction of the Altamont Free Concert as a series of bad decisions that led to bad results is still fascinating. The best reaction in the film comes from Jerry Garcia, stoned out of his mind and clearly only half-understanding the news that the ad hoc security at the event, the Hell’s Angels, were beating people in the crowd. He blinks, slowly, and simply drawls, “Buuummer.” This should be watched with a critical eye. Hunter’s death is often invoked as a sad footnote that emphasizes how truly awful Altamont was, and Gimme Shelter doesn’t quite correct that—there’s no real attempt to provide character or detail to the man who can be seen sporting a lime green jacket in the crowd, and no sophisticated analysis of the race or class politics of the event or the killing. But even if the Maysles and long-time collaborator Charlotte Zwerin aren’t attempting to answer those important questions, to their credit they provide an awful lot of fascinating footage to be critical about. —M.A. 40. West of the Tracks Director: Wang Bing Year: 2003 Length is hardly ever a demarcation of where quality begins and ends, but the nine-hour running time of Wang Bing’s excruciatingly measured account of the decay of China’s industrial Tiexi district (in Shenyang) is crucial to truly understanding the region’s fate. Segregated into three parts (the alliteratively blank “Rust,” “Remnants” and “Rails”), West of the Tracks creeps toward oblivion, watching sullenly as the director winnows down his focus—from a group of factory workers caught between disastrous working conditions and idle hours waiting for their livelihoods, and lives to end, down to a boy and his dad who pick through rail yards in order to find raw materials for the emptying factories—attempting somehow to zero in on one reason, one feeling, one reality that could sum up, or at the very least provide consolation for, why life is this way for these people. If you’re able to make it through this meandering spiral, down to its empirical roots, there’s no guarantee you will be rewarded for what you did—there is only the knowledge that you had the endurance to do so. —D.S. 39. In the Year of the Pig Director: Emile de Antonio Year: 1968 Consider this a flawless companion piece to Hearts and Minds (spoiler alert: look further down this list), a dedicated investigation into the political and social context that somnambulantly found America embroiled in a disastrous war effort during a time when it felt as if America was capable of anything but staying out of the business of others. Sharing a few key interviews and footage with Peter Davis’s film, Antonio’s bleakly atonal documentary expresses nearly identical contempt for the inscrutability of American actions. And yet, In the Year of the Pig is the better glimpse into Vietnamese culture at the time, and so is one side of an equation that Hearts and Minds would rather complete with a film about America—all of it—during the Vietnam War. Today, Antonio’s more experimental editing choices feel a little too obvious—especially the sequence in which he pairs “patriotic” music with a blatantly jingoistic recruitment film for anti-communist North Vietnamese—but on the whole In the Year of the Pig is no less incendiary: frank, full of rage and so scrappy it might as well be every young idealistic American’s introduction to the reality of our supposedly time-tested democracy. —D.S> 38. Paradise Lost Directors: Joe Berlinger, Bruce Sinofsky Year: 1996 If you’ve never heard of the West Memphis Three, do some research before you begin—you’ll want to be prepared. Within only a minute of the film’s opening, as Metallica’s “Welcome Home (Sanitarium)” noodles forebodingly over pixelated camcorder videos, intolerable images taken straight from police evidence glance across frame, so quickly and frankly you’ll immediately question if they are, in fact, real. Of course, they are—they are images no person should ever have to see, and yet Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky use them only to expose the unbelievable horror at the heart of the appropriately named Paradise Lost. What unfolds over the following two and a half hours is just as heartbreaking: a trio of teenage boys (one with an IQ of 72) is put to trial for the brutal murders of three prepubescent boys, the only evidence against them a seemingly forced confession by the young kid with the below-average IQ, and laughably circumstantial physical proof. The film explores the context of West Memphis, its blindly devoted Christian populous, and how the fact that these teenagers dressed in black and listened to Metallica somehow led to their predictable fates at the hands of a comprehensively broken justice system. With surprising access to everyone involved in the trial, as well as a deft eye for the subtle exigencies of any criminal case such as this, Paradise Lost is a thorough, infuriating glimpse of the kind of mundane evil that mounts in some of America’s quietest corners. Welcome home. —D.S. 37. Buena Vista Social Club Director: Wim Wenders Year: 1999 A good 15 years before Obama moved to lift the embargo, Wim Wenders helmed this exuberant introduction to a members club in Havana that closed in the 1940s, only to find worldwide popularity in the 1990s. Wenders’ camera follows his friend, American musician Ry Cooder, as he gets the band of legendary Cuban talents back together for an album and a few transcontinental performances. The soundtrack is, unsurprisingly, exceptional. So too are the individual players and their stories: Take Ibrahim Ferrer, a soft-spoken septuagenarian with a dulcet falsetto, or Omara Portuondo, a soulful chanteuse and dancer who once performed with Nat King Cole. Wenders’ film is more than just a journey of discovery for Cooder and his accompanying son Joachim, or for the group’s members, many of whom had never been to the U.S. (where they sold out Carnegie Hall); it’s the viewer’s passport to an indigenous African-Spanish sound theretofore blockaded by politics. Back in the studio, back in front of a crowd, back with each other, the Club’s members are positively radiant. It’s damned near impossible for audiences to not bask in that warmth. —A.S. 36. Burden of Dreams Director: Les Blank Year: 1982 Werner Herzog is no stranger to the ecstatic toil of movie-making, and so it comes as no surprise that one of the greatest films ever filmed about filmmaking is Les Blank’s The Burden of Dreams, a documentary ostensibly about the harrowed making of Herzog’s Fitzcarraldo in the jungles of South America, and really about, like Hearts of Darkness, what an artist is willing to do to wrench his or her vision free from the mind’s morass. Herzog, an experimental documentarian in his own right, seems to at times toy with Blank, posturing himself as a madman on the brink of a psychotic break, unleashing one bout of intimidating crazy talk after another; years later, Blank admitted as much on his end, claiming that he fussed with the film’s vérité style, asking Herzog, for example, to repeat rants the director once shared off-camera. Whether Herzog’s playacting or not, his horrific monologues only service the narrative Blank’s building: that sometimes an artistic vision must be seen through, no matter the cost. Whether Blank was instigating drama in the director’s reality or not, Herzog was on board: the audience must understand the seriousness of his vision. And leave it to Herzog to describe such primeval urges in Conquest of the Useless: Reflections from the Making of Fitzcarraldo, the director’s own diary-like chronicle of the production: “A vision had seized hold of me, like the demented fury of a hound that has sunk its teeth into the leg of a deer carcass and is shaking and tugging at the downed game so frantically that the hunter gives up trying to calm him. It was the vision of a large steamship scaling a hill under its own steam, working its way up a steep slope in the jungle, while above this natural landscape, which shatters the weak and the strong with equal ferocity, soars the voice of Caruso, silencing all the pain and all the voices of the primeval forest and drowning out all birdsong. To be more precise: bird cries, for in this setting, left unfinished and abandoned by God in wrath, the birds do not sing; they shriek in pain, and confused trees tangle with one another like battling Titans, from horizon to horizon, in a steaming creation still being formed. Fog-panting and exhausted they stand in this unreal misery—and I, like a stanza in a poem written in an unknown foreign tongue, am shaken to the core.” Just try to not imagine that in Herzog’s now infamous voice: the voice of a man at war with the wide world around him—and the voice of a man who may win. —D.S. 35. The Look of Silence Director: Joshua Oppenheimer Year: 2015 Like The Act of Killing, Joshua Oppenheimer’s companion film—the syntactically similar The Look of Silence—asks you to contemplate the literal meaning behind its title. Again returning to Indonesia, a country languishing in the anti-communist genocides of the 1960s, Oppenheimer this time sets his eye on Adi, a middle-aged optician whose brother was murdered by the men who were the focus of the first film, people today treated as local celebrities. Without question, the film is an interrogation of what it means to watch—as those who led the genocides; as those who are loved ones of those who led the genocides; as those who must repress the anger and humiliation of living beside such people every day; and, most palpably of all, as those of us who are distant observers, left with little choice but to witness such horror in the abstract. As in its predecessor, Oppenheimer’s patience and ability to acquaint himself intimately with the film’s subjects make for one gut-scraping scene after another—the sight of Adi’s 100+ year-old father, especially, is harrowing: blind and senile, the man is abjectly terrified as he scoots around on the floor, flailing and screaming that he’s trapped, having no idea where, or when, he is. Yet, moreso than in The Act of Killing, Oppenheimer here demands our undivided attention, forcing us to confront his quiet, sad documentary with the notion that seeing is more than believing—to see is to bear responsibility for the lives we watch. —D.S. 34. The Fog of War Director: Errol Morris Year: 2004 The primary thrust of The Fog of War is a series of interviews Morris did with Robert McNamara, beginning in May 2001 and continuing through the winter of 2002-03. For those who lived through the ’60s, the name Robert McNamara provokes an entire range of emotions and experiences. But even those too young to remember the former U.S. Secretary of Defense will find The Fog of War an incredibly relevant portrait of a man who helped shape the 20th century. Not enough can be said of Morris’s rhythmic editing style. He’s a master of the subtle use of slow- and fast-motion. It’s reminiscent of Dziga Vertov’s Man with a Movie Camera, one of Morris’s favorite documentaries. The propulsive minimalism of the musical score by Philip Glass perfectly matches Morris’s editing, creating both energy and drive. At other times, it heightens what the director calls the “existential dread” of war, as archival footage from WWII and Vietnam flash on screen. The Fog of War is principally a movie about war, which is why McNamara’s 13-year reign as the president of the World Bank is unfortunately ignored. However, the film raises enough issues, provokes enough questions and challenges enough assumptions to make it essential viewing. —J. Robert Parks 33. For All Mankind Director: Al Reinert Year: 1989 “You recognize that you’re not there because you deserve to be there—that you were just lucky. You were a representative of humanity at that point in history, having that experience, in a sense, for the rest of mankind.” Al Reinert did mankind a solid by poring over nearly six million feet of film and 80 hours of NASA interviews to piece together an immersive, elegant and above all awe-struck cinematic document of humankind’s first missions to the moon. Laying astronauts’ VO accounts over lunar vistas that even today ply the imagination, For All Mankind is really the only thing Reinert’s known for—though he did write the script for Apollo 13, because duh—and even then he acts more like an expert curator than a director. Yet, there is an intimate, intuitive grace to the voices he chooses, and the quotes he places delicately throughout, splicing the astronauts’ insightful testaments to wonder and the fragility of life with mundane descriptions of how to go pee in space. Plus, having Brian Eno compose an original score for the film was nothing less than a genius decision. “Already I was getting the impression that this was such an amazing thing, that I’m going to forget these things. And more: I’m going to lose this image; it’s going to be replaced with another. Each image came up, it was there for a flash to be appreciated and savored and then reluctantly let go because you know it’s going to be superimposed with others.” More than a necessary historical record of our species finally pressing into the incomprehensible beyond, For All Mankind is a searching glimpse into what it’s like to be—on the simplest of levels—in the midst of an experience you desperately want to keep with you forever. Because, for all of the prestige and unbelievable luck attached to their being on such missions, the astronauts in this film are portrayed as uncomplicated, good-natured men—and really only that. In their ordinary lives aboard the shuttle, in the countless hours they spend spinning junk through zero gravity, in the way they pull some dumb fun out of playing the theme from 2001: A Space Odyssey—in all of that Reinert finds a perfect way to portray both the immensity of their accomplishments and the insignificance of so-called “mankind” against the vastness of the universe we’ve only begun to explore. —D.S. 32. American Movie Director: Chris Smith Year: 1999 In 1996, Chris Smith joined unknown Wisconsin filmmaker Mark Borchardt as the Midwesterner did everything in his power to finish a little horror film called Coven. The two-year account of Coven’s rigmarole, which Smith deigned to name American Movie, finds Borchardt, a good-hearted but estranged father of three battling his burgeoning alcoholism, obsessed with only one dream: to be a filmmaker. He sees Coven as the gateway to eventually making his real pet project, another film called Northwestern, a film whose success on which he’s seemingly hung his whole adult life. Northwestern of course, and Coven subsequently, represent so much more to Borchardt than a distant ambition or idealistic art project—instead, he’s convinced that the films are his only way to redeem himself after years of personal failings. As we watch Smith watching Borchardt desperately keep his production going, despite lack of financing, disorganization and poor communication with a meager crew, the title of the documentary becomes ever ominous. “Making movies” in America is a vocation best left for the hardheaded dreamers, Smith implies, and Borchardt is probably out of his depth. But even when Coven inches ever closer to completion, failure is never far from the film’s purview, which leaves us with a heartbreaking question: why do we ever even participate in such a hellacious process as filmmaking? Why do we even make art at all? If the Jodorowskys and Herzogs and Coppolas of the world are the rare kinds of people so obnoxiously headstrong they can survive a process most directors would abandon, maybe they don’t have the noblest of intentions in when it comes to holding the art of filmmaking above the fray. Maybe they just have something to prove. It’s this realization that leaves American Movie so honestly, endlessly heartbreaking. —D.S. 31. Style Wars Director: Tony Silver Year: 1983 Affectless and workmanlike, Style Wars takes a surprisingly in-depth snapshot of hip-hop culture in the early ’80s in New York, just as the form was poised to break from street devotion to commercial acclaim. The film elects to focus on the (relatively) least popular elements of hip-hop—namely breakdancing and, especially, graffiti—joining these burgeoning, and young (my god, so young), artists as they navigate the New York underground, trading jargon and insider’s critiques on the art and lifestyle they love, holding no doubt that the work they were conjuring nightly would someday become the stuff of legend. Meanwhile, director Tony Silver stops by mayor Ed Koch’s office to get his smarmy take on what will or won’t deter such hoodlums, and then saunters over to the head of the Metropolitan Transit Authority to hear a voice of sympathy, only to have that voice devolve by film’s end into yet another disciplinary finger-wagging. Yet, Silver’s best accomplishment isn’t in painting authority figures as the artists’ archnemeses, but instead casting as super-villain that of anonymous graffiti “bomber” Cap, who confesses throughout the documentary that, in so many words, the most beautiful pieces (created by, among others, Seen, Kase2, Dondi and Skeme) deserve to be hastily sprayed over with his haphazard tag. Cap may seem like a monumental jackass—and war room meetings between the City’s other prominent burners reveal as much in their opinions—but his actions are laced with respect, bringing to light the competition and fleeting nature of hip-hop’s earliest manifestations. That a climactic scene involves a few artists already showing their work in hoity-toity art galleries only reinforces the already doomed nature of what they were trying to accomplish: They were literally rewriting, in miraculously constructive and non-violent terms, the rules of an urban jungle they felt no longer had room for them. —D.S. 30. The Times of Harvey Milk Director: Rob Epstein Year: 1984 Rarely can one historical figure’s story so saliently capture a point of immense cultural transformation, yet director Rob Epstein’s account of Harvey Milk’s time as a San Francisco City supervisor—which, unbelievably, lasted less than a year before he was assassinated by ex-supervisor Dan White—is in itself a brilliant attempt to manifest Milk’s message, stretching the man’s advocacy for human rights into the sphere of documentary filmmaking with a hope and urgency that the gay rights movement had never experienced before. Paying little attention to Milk’s past, Epstein is frank about the ordinariness of Harvey Milk—so much so that his accomplishments sometimes come off like the work of a lucky man who was in the right place at the right time. Still, he was an incredible speaker with seemingly boundless empathy, a true man of the people, and so his story essentially speaks for itself, so much so that the tragedy of his death makes The Times of Harvey Milk as much a testament to his spirit as it is a compelling true crime dissection of why the United States even today seems so unable to escape the bigotry and hate that’s courted us since the beginning. —D.S. 29. Symbiopsychotaxiplasm: Take One Director: William Greaves Year: 1968 Symbiopsychotaxiplasm is an unnerving medley of three films: 1) a documentary of the casting process for an unmade film called Over a Cliff; 2) a documentary of the documentary of the casting process for an unmade film called Over a Cliff; and 3) a documentary about the documentary of the documentary of the casting process for an unmade film called Over a Cliff, wherein the director of the first documentary also happens to be directing the third documentary to capture additional footage of people in Central Park that has anything tangentially to do with “sexuality,” which may or may not be what Over a Cliff is about. That the first documentary seems to be only the repeated filming of different actors having the same offensively tone-deaf conversation is but one point of contention; that the crew can’t seem to possibly grasp what’s going on, let alone get any sort of coherent idea about what they’re supposed to be doing from director Bill Greaves, makes much of the film feel like an inchoate disaster. Which of course compels the crew to gather, apart from Greaves, in a sort of mutiny room to discuss whether they should continue with the production, filming that meeting with full intention of giving the footage to Greaves at the end of whatever it is they’re doing, whenever it is that will happen—all the while debating if, somehow, Greaves orchestrated the whole thing, because there’s no way the audience will know what’s staged and what’s not. And we don’t. So when later Greaves gathers the crew to hear their dissent and then—shutting them down like the genius badass he is—plainly tell them that he did orchestrate all of this, we immediately call into question how easily any kind of film, whether it’s fictional or not, can manipulate our experience of truth—no matter what side of the camera we happen to find ourselves on. —D.S. 28. When We Were Kings Director: Leon Gast Year: 1996 This Oscar-winning look at the October 1974 heavweight boxing match between champion George Foreman and challenger Muhammad Ali is a thrilling document of not only the hype leading up to the event, but the sociopolitical climate in its host nation, Zaire. The capital city of Kinshasa was essentially operating as a police state, the republic at large under Mobutu Sese Seko’s dictatorship, while the Black Power movement was gaining momentum. So the fight, orchestrated by ever-calculating Don King, was more than a cultural event—it encapsulated a pivotal moment in contemporary African-American history. So too does Leon Gast’s electrifying portrait, tracing Ali’s return to the ring after his anti-Vietnam stance cost him his title, and characterizing Foreman’s seemingly undefeatable Olympian. That we know now what was then an unthinkable outcome, and yet are still on the edge of our seats, is Gast’s own triumph. His way with the larger-than-life subjects puts into context just how extraordinary “The Rumble in the Jungle” was, with edits and pacing as sharp as Ali’s left hook. —A.S. 27. Dont Look Back Director: D.A. Pennebaker Year: 1967 The breakthrough of Primary allowed for a more freewheeling kind of filmmaking, and Pennebaker soon used it to document a U.K. acoustic tour from rising star Bob Dylan. Pennebaker wasn’t a huge Dylan fan—he only knew a song or two—and had no idea that what they made together was, outside of A Hard Day’s Night, destined to be the most significant music movie of the 1960s. “When I made Dont Look Back with Dylan, we just shook hands,” Pennebaker said in 2011. “It was 50/50 … I think that bond means you will be fair about money, but it also means you’re not making the film just for yourself. You’re making it for the subject because it’s all he’ll ever have of that experience, and it should be as true for him as it is for you.” Far from a disposable fan item, Don’t Look Back is a bracing portrait of an artist colliding headlong with both his growing fame and the confusion of those in the press who don’t know how to approach this mercurial young man—or the generation he represented. Most famous for its iconic, much-parodied non sequitur opening—Dylan flipping white cards with lyrics from “Subterranean Homesick Blues”—Dont Look Back somehow manages to capture the promise of the decade’s counterculture movement, all embodied in a willful little genius who loved tormenting reporters and Donovan with equally bratty gusto. Explaining the movie’s eternal appeal, Pennebaker used an analogy. “In the ’60s, every kid would buy certain records,” he once explained. “To their parents, the record covers were just pictures. But for [the kids] it was a whole secret symbolic language that told them what kind of dope to smoke, where things were hidden, where to go and all kinds of things they naturally needed to know. Film is one more way you can convey secret information. Dont Look Back provided coded information for people who didn’t want the other generation to know what they were really into. When the older generation looked at it, all they saw was out-of-focus, shaky pictures they weren’t used to.” —T.G. 26. Capturing the Friedmans Director: Andrew Jarecki Year: 2003 This is the story of Arnold Friedman and his son Jesse, convicted of multiple counts of child molestation that supposedly took place in the basement of their home in a quiet New York suburb during the ’80s. In Capturing the Friedmans, filmmaker Andrew Jarecki interviews the victims and prosecutors, but never reaches a conclusion as to the veracity of the charges, tacitly acknowledging that guilt and innocence are fluid concepts in such sensational and shameful circumstances. Instead, he documents the implosion of the family and the destruction of an already tenuous marriage. Surely, the details of the abuse are disturbing, but almost as unsettling is the cruelty with which the two older Friedmans reject their mother in blind loyalty to their shamefaced father and numb younger brother, further facilitating the family’s emotional separation. —Emily Reimer 25. Primary Director: Robert Drew Year: 1960 Here begins the stuff of legends: the unheralded celebro-presidency of JFK; the careers of iconic filmmakers D.A. Pennebaker and Albert Maysles; the legacy of a sort of pre-gonzo filmmaking that embedded the audience face-first into the fray of history. While Primary is a relatively quaint hour of man-on-the-street insight into one of the most important elections in American history—capped by a stump speech that illustrates, in a brisk couple minutes, why John F. Kennedy became the figure we now intuitively know him as—the influence this film has is incalculable. From 20/20 to To Catch A Predator, Primary, in following the Wisconsin primary between JFK and Hubert Humphrey, has helped us define that uneasy gray area of our personal politics, giving heft

Dear Database Professional, Did you know that MSSQLTips.com publishes new SQL Server content on a daily basis as well as offers free webinars and tutorials? Let us help you stay informed and learn something new each day. Click here to keep informed. Thank you, Greg Robidoux and Jeremy Kadlec (MSSQLTips.com Co-Founders) Problem I have seen many of the changes with SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS) versus SQL Server 2000 Data Transformation Services (DTS). Integration Services certainly has much more functionality out of the box than DTS and I am learning SSIS as my projects move forward. One item that has seemed to be a thorn in my side is deploying an SSIS package. So, I have read your tip (SQL Server Crosswalk - Deploying a SQL 2000 DTS vs. a SQL 2005 SSIS package) related to deploying a package and wanted to find out if any other options are available? Can you shed some light on the situation? Solution You are right about SSIS vs. DTS. SSIS certainly has a great deal of functionality out of the box as compared to DTS, but in some respects some of the simpler aspects of DTS Packages have been over shadowed by a standardized development platform (Business Intelligence Management Studio) with SSIS. The net result is for the sake of new technology, new processes are needed. One of those items could be considered the deployment of an SSIS Package with the deployment manifest wizard. In the SQL Server Crosswalk - Deploying a SQL 2000 DTS vs. a SQL 2005 SSIS package tip we talked about creating a deployment manifest file and using that file for deployment purposes. Let's also outline another approach in this tip which is using Management Studio to import or export an SSIS Package. Deploying an SSIS Package Although the detailed steps for deploying an SSIS Package are outlined in this tip (SQL Server Crosswalk - Deploying a SQL 2000 DTS vs. a SQL 2005 SSIS package) let's outline the general steps: Build the package in Business Intelligence Management Studio (BIDS) Change the package configurations to build the deployment utility Build the deployment directory with all of the needed files Execute the deployment manifest file which launches the wizard In the course of the wizard, deploy the SSIS Package to either the file system or the MSDB database Execute the SSIS Package via the DTExec utility, a SQL Server Agent Job or a script As you can tell, this is a much different process as compared to the SQL Server 2000 DTS Packages where all of the development and deployment was directly in Enterprise Manager. Importing an SSIS Package in Management Studio As compared to the process above, importing an SSIS package via Management Studio may be considered a much simpler approach. Let's walk through the process of importing the SSIS Package via Management Studio once the package is saved in BIDS. Import Process - In order to start the SSIS import process follow these steps: Open Management Studio Login to the SQL Server Integration Services instance where you want to import the SSIS Package Expand the 'Stored Packages' folder To access the 'Import Packages...' option, right click on either: The 'File System' folder The 'MSDB' folder An individual SSIS Package Once the SSIS Import Package interface opens, complete the options Import Package Options - Below outlines the interface options: Package location SQL Server - MSDB database File System - Directory with the SSIS Package (*.dtsx file) SSIS Package Store - Directories related to the SSIS installation i.e. C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\DTS\Packages\ Server SQL Server instance with SSIS installed Authentication Windows Authentication SQL Server Package path Current directory with the SSIS Package Package name Rename the SSIS Package name when imported Protection level Level of security assigned to the SSIS package Additional information - Setting the Protection Level of Packages Exporting an SSIS Package in Management Studio Since we covered importing an SSIS Package with Management Studio, let's also cover exporting an SSIS package with Management Studio: Export Process - In order to start the SSIS export process follow these steps: Open Management Studio Login to the SQL Server Integration Services instance where you want to export the SSIS Package Expand the 'Stored Packages' folder To access the 'Export Packages...' option, right click on an individual SSIS Package Once the SSIS Export Package interface opens, complete the options Export Package Options - Below outlines the interface options: Package location SQL Server - MSDB database File System - Directory with the SSIS Package (*.dtsx file) SSIS Package Store - Directories related to the SSIS installation i.e. C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\DTS\Packages\ Server SQL Server instance with SSIS installed Authentication Windows Authentication SQL Server Package path Current directory with the SSIS Package Protection level Level of security assigned to the SSIS package Additional information - Setting the Protection Level of Packages Delete an SSIS Package in Management Studio The deletion process in Management Studio is very straight forward. Just right click on the package and select the 'Delete' option. Save Copy of Package in Business Intelligence Development Studio Save Copy of Package Process - In order to start the process follow these steps: Finish the SSIS Package in BIDS Navigate to File | Save Copy of Package Once the Save Copy of Package Process interface opens, complete the options Export Package Options - Below outlines the interface options: Package location SQL Server - MSDB database File System - Directory with the SSIS Package (*.dtsx file) SSIS Package Store - Directories related to the SSIS installation i.e. C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\DTS\Packages\ Server SQL Server instance with SSIS installed Authentication Windows Authentication SQL Server Package path Current directory with the SSIS Package Protection level Level of security assigned to the SSIS package Additional information - Setting the Protection Level of Packages Command line management with dtutility Although the Management Studio and Business Intelligence Development Studio offer rich interfaces to manage SSIS Packages, Microsoft also offers the option to copy, move, delete, or verify the existence of an SSIS Package with the dtutil command. This alternative may prove priceless if you are faced with a situation where you need to manage large numbers of SSIS Packages in an automated manner. Here are some simple coding examples with the dtutil command: Copy and rename the SampleSSISPackage to Export_FlatFile_Daily_CustomerData.dtsx

When To Think About Dental Veneers? - World of Article Search for: Search Education Games Health Sports Technology Home Improvement Fashion Shopping Food Automotive More Finance Lifestyle Contact us By on October 1, 2020 2569 Views When To Think About Dental Veneers?

As with every Top 50 ranking, difficult decisions had to be made towards the bottom section, and players were left out for a variety of reasons. In some cases, players on the honorable mentions list are NHL caliber talents who have questions or concerns regarding their development, be it injuries, inconsistency, or questions of character. With some prospects, there was simply a wide disparity of opinion on their overall potential. The following group of prospects, presented in no particular order, just missed the cut in HF's Spring Top 50 ranking. They are all still prospects worth keeping an eye on as the 2013-14 season winds down and the 2014-15 season begins next fall. Nicklas Jensen, RW/LW, Vancouver Canucks Height: 6-3, Weight: 186, Not ranked Though things got off to a rocky start, Nicklas Jensen has been very solid in his first full season of North American professional hockey. Considered to have a good shot at cracking the Canucks roster out of training camp, Jensen suffered an upper body injury in a preseason game and was on injured reserve until October 30th, when the Canucks assigned him to their minor league affiliate, the Utica Comets. A sniper by trade, Jensen was scoreless through his first 18 games with the Comets this season, but seemed to find a groove in the new calendar year, and by the time February rolled around, he was one of the hotter scorers in the AHL. With injuries beginning to accumulate on the Canucks roster, Jensen was recalled in early March and has been part of their top-nine forward group ever since. Beau Bennett, RW/LW, Pittsburgh Penguins Height: 6-2, Weight: 207, Fall ranking – 40 Winger Beau Bennett came into the 2013-14 NHL season expecting to compete for a top-six spot roster spot alongside star centers Sidney Crosby or Evgeni Malkin. Instead, he spent 61 games on injured reserve, first from a lower body injury in late October, then a wrist injury in late November which required surgery to repair. When healthy, Bennett is a quick and aggressive forward who possesses high hockey sense and game-breaking offensive ability. He returned to the lineup in late March and has looked extremely effective, but his health will remain a concern until he is able to prove otherwise. Oscar Klefbom, D, Edmonton Oilers Height: 6-3, Weight: 201, Fall ranking – 38 Expectations for Oscar Klefbom heading into the 2013-14 season were sky high, but after missing most of 2012-13 with a shoulder injury and struggling at times adjusting to the North American game, the Swedish blueliner spent much of the 2013-14 regular season developing in the AHL with Oklahoma City. A late season call-up to Edmonton in March has been a boon to the blueliner's stock however, as he has proven capable of skating a regular shift without hurting his club. Klefbom is a well-rounded defenseman, capable of making stops in his own end with his size or reach as well as getting his club moving towards the offensive end. While more immediate returns were expected of the defenseman, he was always viewed as a bit of a project and seems to be on track to compete for an NHL job to start the 2014-15 season. Valentin Zykov, LW, Los Angeles Kings Height: 6-0, Weight: 207, Not ranked The Kings traded three draft picks for the chance to select Valentin Zykov with the 37th overall pick in 2013. The Russian winger may not have intimidating size on paper, but his strong build and fearless style of play make him a handful for opposing defenseman. After 40 goals in his draft year, Zykov has not made quite as big of an impact in the goal-scoring department in 2013-14. The winger was also one of the more disappointing forwards for Russia's 2014 WJC club that came up short of the medal round in Sochi with zero points in seven games. He will still need to develop his game away from the puck before transitioning to the pro level, but the rough-and-tumble Zykov nonetheless has the potential to develop into a dynamic scoring winger who can fit well into the Kings' physical style of play. Shayne Gostisbehere, D, Philadelphia Flyers Height: 5-11, Weight: 170, Not ranked A junior with Union College, Shayne Gostisbehere has established himself as one of the top defensemen in college hockey. A quick, mobile presence along the blue line, Gostisbehere specializes in transitioning the puck up into the offensive zone – a skill that is increasingly valuable in the NHL. Though he has the skating and instincts to play in the NHL, Gostisbehere has less than ideal size and will have to add plenty of strength. He will also need to simplify his game, as he will not be able to routinely beat players at the pro level with his speed the way he does in college. Riley Sheahan, C/W, Detroit Red Wings Height: 6-2, Weight: 212, Not ranked Riley Sheahan is one of several young forwards who has kept the Detroit Red Wings playoff hopes alive in the face of mounting injuries. A two-way player with good skating ability, puck protection, and hockey sense, Sheahan projects as a prototypical Red Wings forward in the sense he can do everything fairly well. He played the first half of the 2013-14 season mostly in the minors, but was recalled in January and has been a contributing member of the roster ever since. Where he plays in the Red Wings lineup largely depends on who is healthy, but Sheahan has the versatility to play all three forward positions and a variety of different roles. Martin Jones, G, Los Angeles Kings Height: 6-4, Weight: 187, Not ranked A big goaltender with great anticipation, Martin Jones has finally established himself as a viable NHL goaltender after playing three full seasons with the Kings minor-league affiliate. He made his NHL debut in a rather dramatic fashion too, going 8-0 in his first eight starts and registering three shutouts. Jones' play has been so strong this season that the Kings felt backup goaltender Ben Scrivens was expendable and traded him to the Edmonton Oilers in mid-January. Jones has been stellar in spelling starter Jonathan Quick and is 11-6 through 18 starts on the season. He also has a .932 save percentage and a 1.91 goals against average. Reid Boucher, RW/LW, New Jersey Devils Height: 5-10, Weight: 192, Not ranked Reid Boucher has been a standout in his first full season of professional hockey. An undersized forward with excellent hands and goal-scoring instincts, Boucher started the 2013-14 season with the New Jersey Devil's AHL affiliate. He managed 10 goals and eight assists in his first 21 games and was recalled in early December. He stuck in the Devils lineup for 23 games, managing two goals and five assists, but was eventually returned to the AHL. The 20-year-old sniper is a strong candidate to start the 2014-15 season on the Devils NHL roster. Shea Theodore, D, Anaheim Ducks Height: 6-2, Weight: 175, Not ranked The Anaheim Ducks defensive pipeline has been productive in recent seasons, particularly with Hampus Lindholm and Sami Vatanen settling into full-time roles for the Ducks in 2013-14. Meanwhile up north in Seattle, Shea Theodore used the 2013-14 season to announce himself as the next in line. The blueliner led the WHL's defensemen with 79 points in 70 games and helped the Thunderbirds reach their highest playoff seed in six seasons. Adding strength to his 6'2 frame and continuing to improve his defensive game will be important for Theodore, but the blueliner has all the offensive skills to make an impact for the Ducks. Ryan Spooner, C/W, Boston Bruins Height: 5-11, Weight: 181, Not ranked Since turning pro, Ryan Spooner's playmaking abilities have really come to the forefront. In junior, Spooner was more of a dual threat offensively, but thus far through almost two seasons with Providence he has accumulated 74 assists through 109 games. He was rewarded this season with a 22-game stint in Boston, and while he failed to score a goal he did contribute 11 assists. He is not overly physical but plays a smart, safe game on the ice, and does not turnover the puck too much. Spooner will serve as an injury call-up for the Bruins this season and post-season, but could be a regular member of the lineup as soon as next year.

Getting #3 into her notches. Completing the Starboard side. Stringer #4, first one on the Port side and the middle stringer. Didn’t take as long as Starboard but still the middle stringer setting the alignment for the others means more care and finesse are needed. #5 out of 6. (Left) Dry fitting. (Right) Notches cut. Notches for #5 ready for Preservative and Tar All 6 stringers installed! From inside the boat All that is left now is to install the Cheeks and cut the Rabbet!

Over the last couple of days, I have heard a bevy of complaints, afflictions, and downright depression from Saints fans. It seems that our loss to the Sea-hags spurred this infliction. If you suffer from any of the following, you may be suffering as well from PTSD, otherwise known as Post Traumatic Saints Disorder: From what I have been told, there is no cure from PTSD. Saints fans have been in this dark place before, some spending over 30 years in total apoplexy. Apparently, it takes times, healing, and much soul searching to overcome this disappointment. I know that in the off-season, I'll be reviewing my wardrobe choices, what I served on game day, my game day rituals, and my previous postings. And, I'll be doing lots of reading: Black and Gold Party Gras, World Champs, Coming Back Stronger, and Home Team. And, I'm sure that I'll watch all the NFL videos regarding the 2009 season.

The baseline drive, the juke, the spin move around the defenseless chair and the ferocious slam. Do you remember it? Do you? Yi Jianlian’s NBA comeback was a quiet one. In August 2016, the seven-footer and former lottery pick signed a one-year, $8 million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers. It was Yi’s first NBA stint since coming off the bench for the Dallas Mavericks in 2012. The signing was sound and creative: Just $250,000 of Yi’s contract was guaranteed, which meant the team had inked the once-hyped Chinese forward for essentially zero risk. But the deal was widely panned, spawning articles with headlines that ranged from mystification (“Why are the Lakers Giving Yi Jianlian $8 Million?”) to mockery (“Yi Jianlian and the Lakers: A Match Made in Purgatory”). The reaction was a marked change from when Yi entered the league. The sixth selection in a 2007 draft headlined by Greg Oden and Kevin Durant, Yi drew comparisons that ranged wildly from Toni Kukoc to Dirk Nowitzki to “a young Tim Duncan.” In the years since, though, he’s become known more as a punchline, and while the Lakers might have been able to use a player with Yi’s size and skillset of mid-range jumpers, they waived Yi without giving him any regular-season minutes and tanked to a 26-56 record. It’s not that Yi can’t play. At 29, the four-time Chinese Basketball Association Domestic MVP averaged 20 points per game in the 2016 Rio Olympics, and he has displayed NBA-level talent whenever given playing time during his five seasons in the league. “Yi Jianlian is definitely not a bust,” says Pete Philo, who scouted the forward for the Minnesota Timberwolves. “A bust can’t play in the Olympics and score 30 points. A bust is a guy that never developed and just can’t play, and you can’t say that about Yi. He could be a backup 4 [or] 5 in the league right now. Yi just always had bad timing.” “I’m partial to Yi,” says ESPN analyst Fran Fraschilla. “And from what I can tell, no one ever explained to him what his role in the NBA would be. He was in dysfunctional situations in the league, and simply got a bad rap.” Advertisement Yi is arguably the most divisive draft selection of the modern era, but what Philo and Fraschilla and other talent evaluators couldn’t have expected was the trolling that has continued unabated since the Milwaukee Bucks selected him a decade ago. The genesis of that scorn centers around a pre-draft workout tape in which Yi “played” one-on-one against an empty chair. Search Google for “Yi Jianlian chair” and there are tens of thousands of results. The chair became a running joke in Bill Simmons’s writings and podcasts, and the then-ESPN columnist even went so far as to bestow Yi with a nickname that stuck: “Chairman Yi.” Here’s a partial timeline of Simmons’s chair references over the years: Senior Producer- Kiran Chitanvis | Animator - Hope Sincere | Creative Producer - Joon Chung The thing is, the chair workout almost certainly never happened, which means that the video almost certainly never existed. I’ve spoken with numerous scouts, execs, players, trainers, and media members, and not one remembers ever actually seeing the clip. I’ve obtained the broadcast-once, now-lost TV program in which the chair workout was allegedly aired, and it’s not there. No matter how sure you are you’ve seen the clip, you haven’t. Advertisement “I don’t think I ever saw it, but I was aware of it because of Bill Simmons’s tendency to joke about it,” says ESPN’s Kevin Pelton. (Simmons, through his publicist, declined to comment for this article. Multiple emails to his personal account were unanswered.) “I’ve never seen it,” says Jonathan Givony of DraftExpress. “People didn’t film workouts back then, and so I always thought it was more of a mythical thing.” Even Larry Harris, the GM of the Milwaukee Bucks, was dubious of the video’s existence: “I had heard about it, but never followed up on it because I find it hard to believe that anyone in any NBA front office would not take a guy solely because he scored on a chair.” Advertisement “I expected you to ask about the chair,” says a member of Yi’s camp when I called to talk about the video’s existence. “That was the first thing that everyone talked about at the time. Questions about the chair video. I heard he went against a chair dozens of times, but I have no idea where it came from.” Simmons claimed that he first saw the clip during the broadcast of an ESPN NBA Draft lottery show, but no one had been able to either locate that video in the subsequent years, and no footage of Yi posterizing a chair has ever surfaced. The footage’s disappearance has naturally spawned various conspiracy theories, including one that blamed the Chinese government for its removal. So why do we all have such a vivid memory of it? Before I devoted hours to combing Google and Youtube and Reddit, I wholly believed that I had once upon a time witnessed Yi spinning past a plastic folding chair. Is it possible that no one ever filmed Yi dunking on a chair, and we all shared a manufactured memory for the past decade? Advertisement The notion isn’t as mind-blowing as it might seem, and Yi’s one-on-zero workout versus a chair might be a particularly widespread example of the Mandela Effect—a phenomenon of collective false memory, like Sinbad’s genie movie or the Berenstein Bears. Even without actually seeing it, the chair workout video is “funny and easy to visualize,” says Pelton. “Why it has endured beyond Simmons is that the video—even if it never existed—knocks the importance of workouts. It served as an effective synecdoche for all NBA draft workouts.” I emailed a group of NBA writers about whether they’d viewed the video at the time or in the years since, and one—Rory Masterson, who writes for sites like The Step Back and Tuesdays with Horry—was shocked at the news that the chair video may not exist: “My knee-jerk reaction was to say that I’d seen it, but the more I think about it ... jeez, is anything real anymore?” Advertisement Bucks GM Larry Harris had an advantage leading up to the 2007 draft. His father, Del Harris, had coached China’s national team, and both had witnessed the transformation of a player who used to stand just 6-foot-4 and couldn’t run 400 meters without nearly collapsing. “Because of my father coaching him, I had an intimate relationship with Yi,” says Harris. “But everyone knew he had talent. Yao had already established himself in the NBA, and Yi was next guy in line.” Yi represented the NBA’s international evolution. The forward, sponsored by Nike since 2005, had attended several sneaker company camps stateside (including the influential Adidas ABCD camp and the famed Pete Newell big man camp) while also helping to lead his club team, the Guangdong Southern Tigers, to three straight CBA titles. He was China’s next superstar, endlessly mobbed at events and stalked by fans. Many expected he had both the makeup on and off the court to seamlessly transition to the NBA. “Yi was this Superman type of figure,” Givony remembers. Advertisement Nike pushed Yi’s international marketing potential early: The sneaker company released an ad portraying the forward as the bridge connecting not only disparate elements of basketball culture in China—Yi is the frequent recipient of no-look ally oops and ferociously athletic dunks as Communist era-esque songs play in the background—but also signaling the outsized influence the sport had attained in the country. The New York Times reported, “[Yi listens] to hip-hop, now [wears] Seven jeans and Sean John shirts and [grew] up playing pickup basketball in Shenzhen … [he] stands as a symbol of discovery that is rippling through the country.” The hip-hop comparison was often repeated: During the 2007 draft, Fraschilla gushed, “Yao is the old school, Yi is new school. He’s hip-hop, he’s 50 Cent!” Advertisement There were reports that Yi’s age had been manipulated, and that the 19-year-old was actually three years older than advertised. In fact, during the lead-up to the draft, message boards were overrun with rampant speculation that Yi was in fact an elder statesman of his class. A year after Yi was selected by the Bucks, China’s Sports Ministry admitted the ages of three dozen CBA players might have been altered; while Yi wasn’t mentioned, the Chinese-language edition of Sports Illustrated reported his middle school registration listed 1984—and not 1987—as the year of his birth. Regardless of the controversy, NBA teams were still keenly interested in the player with such an advanced skillset at his position, even if he was really in his early 20s. At the same time, the mystique of the international prospect was starting to wane. A foreign player had been selected with the top pick in two of the preceding five NBA drafts (starting with Yao Ming in 2002), and of the 29 non-U.S. athletes taken in the first rounds of those five drafts, few blossomed. Between 2003 and 2007, more than 75 foreign players were selected in the NBA draft; that total was halved in the following four drafts, while the number of international first-round picks picks fell by 44 percent. In a column before the 2007 draft, Simmons expressed what was a common sentiment at that time: “I’m very xenophobic when it comes to the NBA draft—too many foreign guys have bombed miserably, everyone underestimates the cultural adjustment. ...We overrate the younger foreigners, even though they’re playing against crappy competition … I don’t get it. What a screwed-up league.” Advertisement Outside of Oden and Durant, though, the 2007 draft was relatively light on star power, and it was in this vacuum that Yi turned pro, moving to Los Angeles that spring and beginning to train with Joe Abunassar, head of IMPACT Basketball, a celebrated academy that has become an offseason training facility for scores of NBA players. Abunassar had spent time in China the previous year improving Yi’s strength and, as he tells me, getting the big man “equipped to play the NBA style.” Though teams had scouted Yi in person or viewed hours of his Guangdong game tape, he was still very much a player whose talent level was largely undefined. “Back then, you could sneak up on NBA teams a bit,” says Givony. “The hype surrounding a player would reach a fever pitch.” Advertisement Adds Fraschilla, “Teams were still figuring out the level of play internationally, and few scouts understood the transition of a player from China or Serbia [versus] a kid that played at North Carolina.” No one was quite sure what caliber of player they would get if they drafted Yi, and Abunassar functioned both as his trainer and imprimatur. “I was blown away by his combination of athleticism and skill,” recalls Abunassar today. “It was impressive how he shot the ball and what he could do with the ball. He moved and exploded like a 6-foot-5 guy but at seven feet tall.” Advertisement Abunassar was responsible for orchestrating Yi’s workouts with NBA teams, and it is here where we need to discuss the nature of the NBA workout, which was then in the middle of a fundamental shift. For years, much of what took place was largely off the court—meetings with the coaching staff, the owner, followed by a lavish dinner to pitch a team’s vision—with a smattering of three-on-three action and individual skill work. But by the early-2000s, and certainly by the time Yi’s draft class came around, agents had begun to manipulate the workout process, transforming them into one-on-zero affairs—and teams could “take it or leave it,” as Fraschilla says. Without any type of real friction—e.g. a defender with any size, length, strength, or motivation—any player can look like a future Hall of Famer. “It’s less prevalent today because teams have caught on and, unless you’re a player like Karl-Anthony Towns, will pass on one-on-zero workouts,” explains Fraschilla. For years, Portland Trail Blazers GM John Nash used the same pre-draft shooting workout to evaluate prospects. In the lead up to the 2005 NBA draft, Martell Webster, the second-to-last high school prospect ever selected in the lottery, stunned Portland execs with his shooting, which was the guard’s strongest skillset but also a by-product of knowing what drills he’d have to prepare for. On draft night, the Trail Blazers traded the third pick to Utah in order to take Webster at No. 6, inexplicably passing up the chance to select Chris Paul, whom the New Orleans Hornets got at No. 4. “Martell is a nice guy, and he was certainly popping threes [at that workout], but he is not Chris Paul,” says one NBA writer. Advertisement At the time of Yi’s draft class, though, most teams were as ambivalent as Boston Celtics GM Danny Ainge, who said, “It’s tough to determine how workouts go when you don’t play against people … It’s worked before, and it hasn’t worked, so we’ll see.” In 2011, Bismack Biyombo rolled the dice with 30 teams watching, working out by himself in Treviso, Italy, and though he bricked mid-range jumper after mid-range jumper, he was drafted with the seventh pick. “He went one-on-zero and lost that workout,” says Fraschilla. When Yi signed with agents Dan Fegan and Jarinn Akana, his camp decided that while the Chinese big would train with other bigs, he would forego any live action in competitive NBA workouts, a tactic being employed that year by Jeff Green (later drafted at No. 5), Brandan Wright (No. 8), and Julian Wright (No. 13), all of whom were guarded by imaginary defenders in their own workouts. “Dan wanted to shield him,” says someone familiar with Fegan’s thinking. (Yi, through a representative, declined to comment for this piece.) Advertisement Brian Cusworth was one of the two hopefuls chosen to train with Yi. According to the seven-foot Harvard center, his job was to push Yi. “My role was to be someone who would work really hard for my own purposes,” Cusworth tells me, “and would hopefully inspire Yi to work even harder, move quicker, and jump higher.” He adds, “It’s the psychological component of wanting to be the best in the room.” Cusworth was present for more than a half dozen of Yi’s workouts, which were held at either UCLA’s rec gym or the velodrome of what was then the Home Depot Center in Carson. He worked out for a number of teams, including the Bulls, Hawks, Warriors, and Clippers. But not every team. Fegan and Akana, along with Zhao Gang, Yi’s Chinese representative, wanted him to play for a team in a city with a sizable Asian-American population. Advertisement Each of Yi’s workout were roughly the same: 45 minutes of drills with zero contact, focusing on perimeter shooting, post moves like jump hooks from up to 10 feet out, and even just “putting the ball down for a few dribbles and dunking it,” says Cusworth. As Abunassar describes it, the workouts were designed to “show an NBA team what they’d want a 6-foot-11 4/5 to do on a game-to-game basis … Really isolating where Yi would be in a standard NBA situational sequence.” Advertisement And there were few drills that the big “couldn’t excel at,” which is what Abunassar told ESPN’s Chad Ford at the time (Ford didn’t respond to several emails seeking comment). According to some of his draft classmates, Yi was a can’t-miss prospect: “That dude can play,” said Nick Young, a sentiment echoed by Joakim Noah, who proclaimed Yi the draft’s top pick. Though Cusworth hoped to impress a team enough to earn a summer league invite, Yi’s team just needed an extra body, someone teams could compare to Yi’s sui generis talents. While it has been a decade since Cusworth last shared a court with Yi, he didn’t remember a chair involved in any of the dozen or so workouts. “I am not sure of the chair reference,” Cusworth says. “I’ve heard of it, but I don’t remember seeing [a chair]. I think the reference is just the idea that he was working out against cones or an imaginary defender, but not necessarily that he was literally posting up a chair.” Advertisement “A one-on-zero workout is collectively considered working out against a chair,” says Givony. Matt Knight was Yi’s other training partner, and the big, who now plays for the Perth Wildcats in Australia’s National Basketball League, was flummoxed when asked about a chair being involved in the workouts. Abunassar was also at a loss when I asked about Yi abusing that hapless chair: “When an NBA team was watching, everything was live. None of Yi’s workouts involved a chair.” He continues, “We might have used a chair or a cone to simulate a ball screen, which is what Bob Knight used in his basketball videos—cross over and get to the rim—but that was just in practice and is also common in basketball. I just wouldn’t have used a prop like a chair when Yi was working out in front of an NBA team.” Advertisement Furthermore, according to a member of Yi’s team, none of the workouts were filmed. “We might have filmed Yi when he was practicing, but when NBA teams showed up, no one filmed anything,” the team member tells me. “The teams he was working out for, those were the teams of interest. We didn’t want certain teams looking at him, seeing him, and then getting excited about drafting him. Why would we want to film and show him off to teams that we didn’t want to see him work out? “I was part of the process, and there was no chair.” Bill Simmons wasn’t the first to mention Yi schooling a chair, though he has managed to thread references to the video into at least a dozen of his columns and countless podcasts over the years. The first was Danny Ainge, who had traveled to Los Angeles to watch Yi work out, who initially mentioned a chair in an early June 2007 interview with the Boston Globe. While Ainge said he felt that he had a “good feel for [Yi],” having scouted him numerous times, he wanted another in-person look. He wasn’t thrilled with the one-on-zero setup: “It was a good workout, Yi against a chair or a coach. That’s how some of those workouts are beautiful. The chair played good defense a couple times.” Advertisement Ainge was joking, and he wasn’t even the only one to use that punchline: In an interview with ESPN, Doc Rivers commented that Brandan Wright had impressed in his Boston workout, but then laughingly noted, “I could look good against a chair. I think we all could.” But from there, the myth spread—or at least found its focal point in a piece of furniture. Before Ainge’s chair comment, Simmons wrote of watching an ESPN draft special with his father, and noted the inferiority of Yi’s competition, complaining that Yi completed his drills against a “trainer who couldn’t have been taller than 5-foot-9.” The chair, though, didn’t make an appearance in a Simmons column until June, two weeks after Ainge’s comments were published. Simmons proclaimed himself the “one person who hasn’t been biased by private workouts in which players face off against janitors and chairs.” He then dropped another chair reference in a mock draft with Chad Ford in which Simmons wrote, “Hey Chad, when Yi practices during the season, will his NBA team have to play 5-on-4 and use a chair as the fifth guy, or will they use a real human being as the fifth guy?” By August, the chair workout had become received wisdom, and it had transformed into a video—as Simmons described it—of “Yi posting up actual chairs and spinning around them for layups.” Advertisement The video he refers to is an ESPN lottery special he watched in late May 2007. After much back and forth with ESPN, which first claimed to no longer have access to this particular footage within its archives, I was sent a thumb drive that contained the 90 minute-lottery special. It is a treat. From Doug Gottlieb continually referring to Kevin Durant as a “chucker” to the live chyron featuring ESPN.com comments (the best one, from Austin in Anaheim: “[Mike] Conley Jr will struggle without Oden”), the special is a snapshot of an evolving NBA, both in terms of playing style and coveted skillset. The clip Simmons references airs about 30 minutes into the program. Narrated by Jeremy Schaap, Yi showcases his potential—inside out dribbles, effortless dunks, smooth jumpers from the wing and elbow. “Yi was built like a model,” says David Thorpe, who trained the forward later in his NBA career. “He had a big chest and shoulders and legs like tree trunks, but he moved like a wing. He is one of the freakiest athletes in the NBA’s history.” Advertisement But there is no chair. In addition to the special, I scanned dozens of YouTube clips and went down every conceivable Google rabbithole, only to find more videos of Yi during his training sessions, showcasing his then-unicorn skillset all by his lonesome, no props in sight. And though Yi was one of the most talked-about prospects in that draft class—when Harris announced the pick to the Bucks’ war room, he referred to Yi as “the Chinese sensation”—a scan of the lottery specials that aired at the time, including this 10-minute NBA TV broadcast, are absent any chair footage. If the chair video had existed, had been posted to Youtube and later taken down, some blog or Reddit thread or NBA chat board would have linked to it, which would have at least confirmed the footage did exist at some point. That has never happened. And those who attended Yi’s workouts swear the chair drill is nothing more than a misinterpreted joke. Advertisement “Danny is a funny guy,” says Abunassar. “But he is also a straight shooter and wouldn’t throw a smoke screen. Using a chair is just a common analogy that means Yi didn’t play in a live game.” (Ainge, through a Celtics spokesperson, declined to comment.) “Danny is very calculated in what he says, and if you take what Danny says literally when he is going through the draft process, or when he is looking to make a trade, then you don’t know the business,” says a source close to Yi. “A chair workout is just a metaphor when guys aren’t working out against someone. I’ve never seen this video or heard of it—it’s a non-issue.” Jason Concepcion, a writer for The Ringer, referenced the chair footage in a 2016 article in which he noted it’s “now impossible to find” online. “I feel like I did see the clip,” Concepcion told me, “but it also wouldn’t surprise me if it never happened.” Advertisement That a metaphor might be repeated as literal, and spread like a game of telephone, isn’t that bizarre. But what makes this tale so compelling is that so many of us share this false memory of actually seeing Yi Jianlian dunk on a chair. Though 2007 was just a decade ago, it feels ancient, a time before the explosion of social media and streaming services. “Before the mass proliferation of YouTube, there was this weird twilight-y gray area where no one is sure if a video existed from before that time,” Concepcion says. “I remember searching for the video of Zach Randolph airballing a three-pointer while on the Knicks, and I couldn’t find the actual game footage. It had been scrubbed. That the Yi video is hard to find isn’t necessarily damning. I’ve searched for it, and couldn’t find it either, but similar to the Randolph video, it didn’t surprise me considering the way NBA videos that for some reason are embarrassing to certain parties always seem to vanish.” Advertisement There aren’t many examples of the Mandela Effect within sports in the modern era, where on-court events are invariably filmed and almost always archived, but here we are. The Mandela Effect phenomenon was coined by Fiona Broome, a “paranormal consultant” who believed for decades that Mandela had died in prison during the 1980s. She speculated that alternate realities may be in play, though more common explanations range from misinformation to confirmation bias and confabulation. Memory is of course fallible, but Broome really did believe Mandela had never been released from prison, and a whole lot of basketball fans really do believe they’ve seen Yi Jianlian show off his moves against a chair. As Amelia Tait reported last year for the New Statesman, the Mandela Effect is when we remember certain falsehoods to be verifiable truths: that the comedian Sinbad starred in a film titled Shazaam (a blatant rip-off of the Shaq vehicle Kazaam), or the “correct” spelling of the Berenstein Bears (it is really Berenstain, and always has been). Scores of people swear to having seen both Kazaam and Shazaam, but only one of those films exists. Tait interviewed those who posted on the Mandela effect’s Reddit page—they swear to have seen both movies, and their explanations mirror those who claim to have seen the Yi video, ranging from a glitch in a parallel universe to the claim that the film was intentionally “disappeared” and recalled because it embarrassed Sinbad (just like how Yi’s chair video was supposedly pulled after embarrassing the Chinese government). Advertisement These memories aren’t necessarily self-formulated or self-sustained, either. The proliferation of online communities, where the beliefs are repeated and further cemented, ensures that even if no evidence exists to support a memory, enough other people reinforce the false memory as true, and at a critical mass, can push its existence into conventional wisdom. Tait spoke with Henry Roediger, a professor at the memory lab at Washington University-St Louis, about what he refers to as the “social contagion of memory”: “One person’s memory infects another. We often forget whether we actually saw something or whether someone told us about a detail later and we filled in our memories. People infer events and then remember the inferences as if they actually happened. If someone hears ‘The karate champion hit the cinder block’ they will often later remember that he ‘broke the cinder block.’ But maybe not: maybe he broke his hand. So the inference is remembered as ‘the way it happened.’” We’ll probably never know whether Yi dunked on a chair. If the video ever existed—and that is a big if, considering the first mass-market phones capable of taking and immediately uploading video didn’t come along until a year or so later—it’s sunk into the ether. But it doesn’t take much of a leap to explain how the idea of a chair video was willed into existence. Thousands saw footage of Yi breezily working out by himself, and when coupled with Ainge’s quote and Simmons’s authoritative repetition, the myth was born. We may all remember that video, but we also can’t trust our own memories. Advertisement “People may say they’ve watched this video, but I don’t feel like everyone thinks they saw it,” says Givony of DraftExpress. “But whether the video exists or not, we found out the guy just couldn’t play.” Yi’s legacy is a bit more nuanced than that. Even though his one-on-zero workout did little to wow some GMs and NBA execs, the Bucks were set to select Yi the moment he entered his name in the draft. “No disrespect to the process,” then-coach Larry Krystkowiak tells me, “but it seemed like the plan to draft him was made months in advance. I wasn’t a head coach that sat in those meetings and had a lot of input.” Advertisement “It is great for fodder, but it had no weight at all towards our decision to draft Yi,” recalls Larry Harris, who headed a front office that thought they had drafted the next Toni Kukoc. Yi should have been a great fit for Milwaukee—“there weren’t many seven-footers in the game at that point who were as athletic as Yi and could pick and pop as well,” says Krystkowiak—but he lasted just one season, averaging 8.6 points and 5.2 boards over 25 minutes a night, before being traded to the New Jersey Nets. The two years he spent wearing a Nets jersey were his best statistical seasons in the NBA: He dropped 10.2 points per game and connected on 34.8 percent of his threes in 113 games, an indication of steady progress. But during the 2010 offseason, he was shipped off to Washington for Quinton Ross and $3 million. (Ross scored just 1.6 points per game for the Nets the next season before being waived.) Yi’s final NBA stop was in Dallas, where he flitted back and forth between the Mavericks’ bench and the organization’s D-league affiliate. “In the NBA, they don’t coach you, they just play you,” says David Thorpe, Yi’s onetime trainer. “No one sat down and ever talked to him. The NBA isn’t good at developing guys like Yi, who had every possible talent and skill available to him to be an All Star. Advertisement “The NBA failed him much more than he failed the NBA.” Soon after the 2012 season ended, he returned to Guangdong, the team where his career had started so brightly, and Yi—an annual CBA all-star—has since showed little desire to return to the NBA, which is why his decision to sign with the Lakers last August was so surprising. “In the end, I heard he wanted to leave Los Angeles,” says a source familiar with Yi’s thinking. “Guys from China want to know their role. Whether they’ll get eight minutes a game, 20 minutes a game, or even just zero, that’s fine, but it can’t be up and down. Yi has always been uncomfortable with the unpredictability.” Advertisement “I hope for the kid that he can land with an NBA team,” says Philo, the scout who enthused about Yi to Minnesota execs in the mid-aughts. “There are guys in the league in rotations that aren’t as good as him, but I wouldn’t be surprised if teams are still evaluating him based off his past performances. We’re all human, and it’s hard to reverse an opinion.” One-on-zero workouts continue to this day—Deyonta Davis’s trainer pulled out a chair during his 2016 workouts, and there were more than a few chuckles among the executives in attendance. Lonzo Ball even featured a chair in his home workout video prior to this past draft, saying, “[The chair] is a good screener, and it allows me to get my shot off.” Advertisement But that millstone, which rears itself every time there is a Yi Jianlian sighting, will never change. “Yi will go down as one of the most successful players in CBA history,” says Pelton, “but to many, he’ll be remembered more as a failed draft pick rather than for the things he has accomplished.” Of all those involved with Yi’s workouts, Cusworth likely prospered the most. Only one team invited to those workouts insisted Yi face some competition; according to Cusworth, the Golden State Warriors wanted to see Yi play one-on-one. “Coach [Don] Nelson bluntly stated they had the 18th pick in the draft and needed to know if they were going to move up in the draft to take him how he handled playing against defense,” Cusworth says. The game was simple: one field goal attempt per possession, score using just three dribbles and you stay on the court; miss, and you play defense. Cusworth says beat Yi handily several times, and in the process earned a summer league invite from the Warriors, which enabled him to land what he describes as a “very lucrative contract in eastern Europe” and subsequently pay for his post-graduate medical degree. Advertisement “My name was out there very well, and I’m incredibly grateful to Yi for allowing me the opportunity to work out with him,” says Cusworth, adding, “I was always trying to do everything harder, faster, and better than him.” Yi, it seems, never did go against a chair. His draft prospects might have fared better if he had.
