The defense of the "truth" in the matter of faith and science within the LCMS is certainly alive and well. An article published in the Summer 2017 edition of the Concordia Seminary St Louis Concordia Journal by Prof. John Jurchen of Concordia Seward caused such an uproar that various districts and other bodies in Synod called for the virtual crucifixion of that professor, without even a Pontius Pilate-style trial. Prof. Jurchen's grand heresy was daring to suggest that one might interpret Gen 1 in a way that might allow for Old Earth Creationism. The beleaguered professor was forced to "recant" his false teaching, and Pres. Harrison of the LCMS found it necessary to issue a definitive decretal on the matter in the official publication of the Synod, the Lutheran Witness, in January 2018. He stated the issue very clearly and succinctly: either the account in Genesis 1 is essentially video-camera verifiable history, or it is a totally fabricated myth. [Lutheran Witness, January 2018, Vol. 187, Number 1, p. 1] There is simply no middle ground. He cites article 5 of the 1932 Brief Statement of the Synod as the only and indisputable doctrinal position of the LCMS.
Most recently, Prof. Charles Arand, Professor at Concordia Seminary St Louis and editor of their Concordia Journal, found it necessary in the Winter 2018 volume to address this synodical uproar over Prof. Jurchen's article [Concordia Journal, Winter 2018, Volume 44, number 1, pp. 7-9]. Though Arand tries to suggest otherwise, there is no distinctively "Lutheran" character to the LCMS "confessional" position on creation. It is part and parcel of the generally Protestant Fundamentalist "Battle for the Bible." It is notable that Arand blames the pre-walkout Seminex faculty for the lack of transparency that caused all of our present synodical troubles. In reality, the journal of the seminary faculty at that time, the Concordia Theological Monthly, was trying in numerous articles to do just what he claims his Concordia Journal is trying to do now, namely to raise up for discussion matters of biblical interpretation. Unfortunately, his equating of exegetical resolutions such as the Brief Statement with confessional subscription severely limits the space for any serious hermeneutical discussions.
While Arand and Jurchen may well be textually correct in questioning the "day-age" interpretation of the word "day" in Genesis 1 [see 2 Peter 3:8] and asserting its literal meaning, they totally miss the context of the term "day" in their interpretation of the style of literature of Gen 1. Taken "ad literam," literally, according to its letter or literary character, Genesis 1 begs to be read as a metaphorical story conveying significant historical truths regarding God, creation, and humanity within creation. It does so by casting God the creator as a good Jewish worker, and creation within the time frame of a typical Jewish work week, culminating in the appropriate — even for God! — observance of the Sabbath at the end of that work week. (Incidentally, all other biblical references to this work-week imagery do so only to emphasize the importance of keeping the Sabbath, not to support the historicity of the Genesis 1 account of creation).
Contrary to the most natural, literal reading of Gen 1, Young Earth Creationism interprets Genesis 1 in what amounts to a video-camera verifiable scientific account of how God actually created the universe. As the Brief Statement expresses it succinctly, "God has created heaven and earth, and that in the manner and in the space of time recorded in the Holy Scriptures, especially Gen. 1 and 2, namely, by His almighty creative word, and in six days." [Concordia Journal, p. 8] In other words, if someone had been there with a video camera, they would have recorded creation "in the manner and in the space of time" described in Gen 1. One must note that the Brief Statement begs the question entirely of the two distinctly different metaphorical images of creation in Gen 1 and 2; in the second account God shapes creation like a potter working with clay, not by speaking, and does so in the time frame of "in the day," not in six days.) Young Earth Creationism thereby pits so-called "creation science" against otherwise generally accepted natural science. This "defense" of the Bible fails to recognize that modern science per se, including evolution, deals only with penultimate phenomena or matters of "secondary causation" in nature, and begs the question of whether there is a "primary cause" or God in and behind the secondary phenomena which it investigates.
The fundamental misunderstanding reflected in this manner of casting the "battle" is that the truly alternative positions are not faith and science, but theism and atheism. These two faith positions go beyond any scientific or other evidence in making ultimate claims about reality. Theism looks the created order and believes (but cannot prove to the satisfaction of the atheist) that God is the creator, and therefore is able to comprehend scientific concepts such as evolution as God's means of working out his purposes in and through creation. Atheism looks at the world and believes (but cannot prove to the satisfaction of the theist) that there is no creator god, and therefore claims that everything we observe in science, including evolution, is happening "more or less of itself" (to quote the Brief Statement), with no higher power or ultimate purpose and plan involved. The Brief Statement, and all subsequent LCMS statements regarding creation based upon it, are therefore woefully inadequate and inaccurate regarding this critical distinction between faith and science when they equate the scientific theory of evolution with an atheistic faith position, and therefore find themselves obliged to assert that the Bible in Genesis 1 gives us a scientifically accurate "video-cam" verifiable account of how creation came into being. It could be that Prof. Jurchen in his way was trying to get at this actual locus of the "battle," the true alternative of theism and atheism, in his suggestion that scientific evidence for an old earth could be comprehended within a theistic-creationist approach to natural science, over against an atheistic approach.
The editorial piece by Professor Arand is noteworthy on two counts. At the formal level, it is sad to see this thoughtful seminary professor and editor reduced to groveling before the "purity police" of our Synod, desperately trying to be reinstated into the good graces of the "neo-confessionalist" base needed for the survival of his more "liberal" and "suspect" of the two LCMS seminaries. It is regrettable to observe Arand having to confess, "our intention was not to provoke concern, especially in a time when our confession of Scripture's teaching regarding creation if often ridiculed in our culture. I apologize that we were not clearer with regard to the purpose of this issue of the Concordia Journal or the direction of the Concordia Journal when it comes to what we teach, promote, and defend on the doctrine of creation…. knowing this history [that is, of Seminex] it is all the more important to us that we do not lose your trust for the sake of our life together as a church." [Concordia Journal p. 7] Truth be told, he is also apologizing for the sake of not losing their support, for the sake of his future and the life of the seminary.
Arand does try to make the case that Prof. Jurchen was simply raising an innocent exegetical question in suggesting that Old Earth Creationism might be a "credible exegetical argument." Jurchen himself in his letter in the Concordia Journal asserts that in his original article, he did not see the need to clearly state his own exegetical position, which he avows stands in opposition to Old Earth Creationism. [Concordia Journal, pp. 13-14] It seems quite evident in context, however, that Jurchen is backtracking in the face of the vicious attacks on him. In his initial article it seems that he was trying to make room for an Old Earth Creationist option as indeed a "credible exegetical argument," for those who on the basis of the findings of modern science might have real problems with Young Earth Creationism.
In another brief editorial comment on this matter Arand grovels even more abjectly in admitting his editorial "error. We apologize and ask forgiveness for the confusion this has caused." [Concordia Journal, p. 11] What pressure this poor fellow professor must be feeling in having to stoop so low to apologize for doing what he is properly called to do as a scholar and editor. Prof. Jurchen likewise is reduced to having to write a letter confessing his grave errors, certainly on pain of losing his position at Concordia Seward. The fear of being characterized as the "liberal" seminary of our Synod is palpable in this particular issue of the Concordia Journal, as reflected in an editorial by seminary President Dale Meyer, a biblical scholar in his own right. Dealing ironically with the topic of "fear," Meyer reflects his fear of the threats against the seminary over this evolution uproar when he is compelled to caricature the theory of evolution as "enthroning human intellect," in order to disavow it –even though he surely has a more nuanced understanding of the matter than he reflects in his editorial.
Beyond the formal level, the Arand editorial at the material level does homage to the "confessional" constituency of Synod in the reverence he is obliged to pay to the Brief Statement. What is striking is his virtual equating of this particular exegetical opinion, adopted by the synodical convention of 1932, with the constitutionally prescribed confessional stance of our Synod, to which all members subscribe. Arand apparently feels compelled to assert "we will not promote or advocate or defend any teaching that runs counter to the doctrinal position of the LCMS. This includes the Brief Statement…" [Concordia Journal, p. 8] Following his citation of Article 5 of the Brief Statement, Arand continues "This statement not only provides a clear confession of God as the creator…," seemingly equating the Brief Statement with Scripture and the Confessions as the doctrinal position of the LCMS.
While Arand's need to appease his "confessional" attackers is understandable, his virtual equating of the Brief Statement with the confessional basis of Scripture and the Lutheran Confessions, to which all members of Synod (congregations and individual workers) subscribe, is contrary to our synodical constitution. Any additional statements/resolutions of the Synod are offered only as advice, and are not of binding force until the given congregation deems such advice to be "in accordance with the Word of God" and "[in]expedient as far as the circumstance of a congregation is concerned," and therefore adopts that advice as its own.[LCMS 2016 Handbook, pp. 13-14] Despite this constitutionally insured advisory relationship between Synod and its members, there is a strong tendency of LCMS "neo-confessionalists" to cite synodical resolutions as equivalent to Scripture and the Confessions. These "neo-cons" seek to regularize by inference this elevation of resolutions to "confessional" status.
The addition in 1973 to the Synodical Handbook of a "dissent" process for members who do not agree with a given synodical resolution seeks to reframe the constitutional relationship of Synod to its members. It is true that in the Bylaws of Synod, Paragraph 1.72 "Agreements" does acknowledge the advisory relation of Synod to its members when it states "The Synod, being an advisory body, recognizes the right of a congregation [or worker member] to be the judge of the applicability of the resolution to its local condition." [LCMS 2016 Handbook p. 34]. Nonetheless, Paragraph 1.8 "Dissent" [Handbook p. 35] strongly implies a more legislative and compulsory view of its resolutions. It presumes that all members automatically accept as their own position all resolutions of Synod, unless they take specific prescribed steps to register their dissent from a given resolution.
In point of fact, the opposite is constitutionally the case. While a member congregation or worker of Synod, as part of "walking together" in "Christian love and charity" will generally respect, acknowledge, and take under advisement a given resolution of Synod such as the Brief Statement, the member congregation or worker has no need to register officially its "dissent" from the position of the Brief Statement, for the simple reason that the resolution is not the position of that member until such time as the member expressly adopts for itself that advisory resolution of Synod. The member will in good faith acknowledge that Synod did adopt a certain position, for example on evolution in the Brief Statement resolution in 1932. Nonetheless, a member of Synod has every right and prerogative of stating that it has not adopted for itself that interpretation of Scripture reflected in the Brief Statement resolution.
Such a furor as we are witnessing over a humble professor's sincere effort to invite discussion regarding how most effectively and pastorally to deal with the evidence of science relative to our faith affirmations regarding creation does not bode well for the future of our Synod and its missional efforts. When agreement with particular exegetical positions of Synod embodied in synodical resolutions is equated with confessional subscription required for membership in Synod, then precious little room is left for honest theological discussion based on Scripture and the Confessions. If membership in Synod is a matter of unquestioning agreement with currently defined "orthodoxy," where is the room for Gospel freedom and Christian charity for the likes of Prof. Jurchen and Prof. Arand? Or for any of us, inside or outside of LCMS academe? The fact is that Synod in its history has passed resolutions and taken diverse and even conflicting exegetical positions on Scripture, while maintaining consistently its confessional foundation on Scripture and the Lutheran Confessions. Members constitutionally are held to the same standard and must be allowed the same latitude.

Karen Mathis' ability to convert ideas into action has been described as "remarkable." That adjective may be applied to her entire career.
As president and principal in the Denver law firm Hall & Mathis, Karen Mathis practices law in the areas of business, estate planning, and trusts. Her professional contributions to the American Bar Association, as well as regional legal associations are numerous. When in July 2000, she assumed the two-year post of Chair of the ABA's House of Delegates, the Association's policy-making body, she was only the second woman to do so in the Association's 125 year history.
A past chair of the ABA Commission on Women, she was instrumental in launching a legal advocacy project to help breast cancer patients. "The goal of our breast cancer advocacy project is to empower breast cancer patients, to help them make informed decisions about their medical coverage," explained Mathis. "Many women learn of their rights, or decide to appeal denial of [insurance] coverage, after it is too late to beneficially affect their chance of survival."
As a participant in the ABA program "Dialogue of Freedom," Karen Mathis' activities extend into the classroom as she conducts dialogues with high school students on issues related to law, American values, and living in a democratic society. In September 2002, she helped announce the ABA initiative "Tolerance Through Education." The program has modules geared for different levels, from elementary school to high school. According to Mathis, "In today's post-September 11 world, it's more critical than ever that children learn to embrace diversity and respect the differences in others."
Mathis currently serves as Chair of the ABA General Practice, Solo and Small Firm Section with more than 22,000 members. She has served on The American Law Institute-American Bar Association Executive Committee and its Commission of Continuing Professional Education. She is a past chair of the ABA Membership Committee and, for four years, she served on the Board of Editors of the ABA Journal, including service as Chair of the Journal's Production and Technology Committee.
Karen Mathis is an internationally sought after speaker on the topic of the status of American women in the field of law. She has spoken throughout the United States and Canada, at the United Kingdom's Women Lawyer's Conference, and at the International Bar Association Barcelona meeting in 1999. She is a member of the Women's Forum of Colorado, and since 1991 has been a member of the prestigious International Women's Forum. She was appointed by Colorado's governor to serve as a board member of the Colorado Office of Childcare Resources and Referral Agencies.
She received her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Denver in 1972. In 1975, she received her law degree from the University of Colorado School of Law. The School of Law awarded Karen Mathis the 1992 Alumni Award for Distinguished Achievement as a practitioner and an honorary Order of the Coif in 2002. She has been honored by the Denver and Colorado Bar Associations as the State's outstanding lawyer.
Today, Siena College honors Karen Mathis with the degree of Doctor of Laws. A distinguished member of the legal profession, she serves as an example that it is possible to live both a successful professional life and a noble life of service to others.

Todays look is unusual for me. No one has ever seen me in an overalls-dress, and neither had I. Overalls are one of the items I tend to love on everyone, but myself, except when I saw this suede overalls-dress. I just had to try it. Just by looking at the model, I kinda became obsessed. It looked so comfortable, and practical. Especially because I am pregnant, again! Which only gives another reason to try this dress. It will give me room to grow (hope it won't look too weird with a big belly. Haha, we'll find out).
I love to experiment, and get out of my comfort zone with style. I always end up surprised, and very happy with the overall look. If it looks good on others, it most likely will look good on you, and If it doesn't, at least you tried. There is no hurt on exploring with your style, only benefits. You will be amazed at what you discover about yourself once you do it. Take me for en example. All you have to do it look at the transformation of my style in the passed two years. I believe it was certainly a change towards the good!
Overalls-dress are trendy, and girly. They give a perfect playful, and fun look for spring, and summer, but can be styled during fall or winter as well. This dress from Romwe came in a light pink, with my favorite unexpected touch, pockets! Everyone who knows me will tell you how much I love pockets. They bring almost every piece to a score of ten (in my book at least. Haha).
Styling overalls-dresses are easy. They are great layering pieces that can be added anytime of the year. I styled it for spring, with a white T-shirt, this dress, and of-course I always have to add a "chic" touch, my Matrix Glitter Sneakers by G by Guess. The sneakers definitely give it that laid back, yet stylish look. For a summer style, wear it with a crop top or off-shoulder top for more edge. Overalls-dress would still look great during fall, except I would probably choose another color, like burnt pumpkin orange or deep green with booties, and a dark top. To finish the cold winter, wear it with high knee boots, and a warm sweater.

Selecting an appropriate issue for research is the main step in your research project's success. Still, it may be one of the hardest steps besides. You need to make a plan and consider the ideas, investigate relevant materials, and find some instruction from your tutor before you start any research assignment. The following steps listed below will be helpful for you in case you don't know how to select good research topics.
1)	The first step you need to do while looking for a topic is to think, where you can find ideas for your research paper. There are four main recourses of ideas. Firstly, your tutor may assign you a topic. Secondly, you may remember some interesting topic that was discussed on a TV for example. Thirdly, you may be interested in some subject matter your tutor mentioned during the classes. And finally, maybe you have some hobby or personal interest that you want to write about. And in case you don't have any topic assigned or any subject of interest you may use the sources available to suggest interesting, practical topics for the research work.
2)	Next thing for you to do is to refine your interesting ideas of good research topics. When you have some general topic for the research, make sure it is a good project by thinking on the methods to improve and narrow such topic. Because of the nature of the research projects, you probably won't have the time to study any broad subject efficiently. For that reason, you need to shorten such broad topic into narrower manageable topic. Start with checking the sources that suggested the topic to you. Almost in all sources you can see the headings, outline or a table of contents that will give you some ideas for narrower topics.
3)	Your final step in developing strong and good research topics is to making your information search plan. Start to write down notes and make the lists. Such lists should include the publications in which you think you can find the data related to your topic, some key questions concerning your topic, all the subject areas in which experts may discus it, all specific notions and phrases that are made use of by professionals who study the same topic and finally, important dates and names related to your topic. Such list making should continue all through your research and study. When you have all that data at hand it will be much easier to make the search of proper materials.
Now you know that it is not so easy to find good research topics for your research papers. For that reason, you may visit custom research writing vendor Samedayessay.com and get professional assistance. Besides, you can find there a lot of useful information, for example, essay examples such as classification essay samples and more other. Don't hesitate to apply for help and soon you will get you excellent rating!

Q: How can I have NHibernate only generate the SQL without executing it? I know how to log the SQL to log4net/NLog/trace window at runtime with the show_sql configuration option.
What I'm looking for is a way to give a Query<T>() to NHibernate retrieve the generated SQL.
I've looked through the Persister class, the Drivers, different Interceptors and Events. There are so many places to look, even narrowing down my search would be of great help.

A: For NHibernate 5.2 in case you want to see actual DbCommand prepared for query (so you can check both SQL in cmd.CommandText and supplied parameters in cmd.Parameters):
//For LINQ
public IEnumerable<DbCommand> GetDbCommands<T>(IQueryable<T> query, ISession s)
{
    return GetDbCommands(LinqBatchItem.Create(query), s);
}

//For HQL
public IEnumerable<DbCommand> GetDbCommands(IQuery query, ISession s)
{
    return GetDbCommands(new QueryBatchItem<object>(query), s);
}

//For QueryOver
public IEnumerable<DbCommand> GetDbCommands(IQueryOver query, ISession s)
{
    return GetDbCommands(query.RootCriteria, s);
}

//For Criteria (needs to be called for root criteria)
public IEnumerable<DbCommand> GetDbCommands(ICriteria rootCriteria, ISession s)
{
    return GetDbCommands(new CriteriaBatchItem<object>(query), s);
}

//Adapted from Loader.PrepareQueryCommand
private static IEnumerable<DbCommand> GetDbCommands(IQueryBatchItem item, ISession s)
{
    var si = s.GetSessionImplementation();
    item.Init(si);
    var commands = item.GetCommands();
    foreach (var sqlCommand in commands)
    {
        //If you don't need fully prepared command sqlCommand.Query contains SQL returned by accepted answer
        var sqlString = sqlCommand.Query;
        sqlCommand.ResetParametersIndexesForTheCommand(0);
        var command = si.Batcher.PrepareQueryCommand(System.Data.CommandType.Text, sqlString, sqlCommand.ParameterTypes);
        RowSelection selection = sqlCommand.QueryParameters.RowSelection;
        if (selection != null && selection.Timeout != RowSelection.NoValue)
        {
            command.CommandTimeout = selection.Timeout;
        }

        sqlCommand.Bind(command, si);

        IDriver driver = si.Factory.ConnectionProvider.Driver;
        driver.RemoveUnusedCommandParameters(command, sqlString);
        driver.ExpandQueryParameters(command, sqlString, sqlCommand.ParameterTypes);
        yield return command;
    }
}

A: You can get the generated sql queries without execution with the following methods:
For the NHibernate.Linq queries:
public String GetGeneratedSql(System.Linq.IQueryable queryable, ISession session)
{
    var sessionImp = (ISessionImplementor) session;
    var nhLinqExpression = new NhLinqExpression(queryable.Expression, sessionImp.Factory);
    var translatorFactory = new ASTQueryTranslatorFactory();
    var translators = translatorFactory.CreateQueryTranslators(nhLinqExpression, null, false, sessionImp.EnabledFilters, sessionImp.Factory);

    return translators[0].SQLString;
}

For Criteria queries:
public String GetGeneratedSql(ICriteria criteria)
{
    var criteriaImpl = (CriteriaImpl) criteria;
    var sessionImpl = (SessionImpl) criteriaImpl.Session;
    var factory = (SessionFactoryImpl) sessionImpl.SessionFactory;
    var implementors = factory.GetImplementors(criteriaImpl.EntityOrClassName);
    var loader = new CriteriaLoader((IOuterJoinLoadable) factory.GetEntityPersister(implementors[0]), factory, criteriaImpl, implementors[0], sessionImpl.EnabledFilters);

    return loader.SqlString.ToString();
}

For QueryOver queries:
public String GetGeneratedSql(IQueryOver queryOver)
{
    return GetGeneratedSql(queryOver.UnderlyingCriteria);
}

For Hql queries:
public String GetGeneratedSql(IQuery query, ISession session)
{
    var sessionImp = (ISessionImplementor)session;
    var translatorFactory = new ASTQueryTranslatorFactory();
    var translators = translatorFactory.CreateQueryTranslators(query.QueryString, null, false, sessionImp.EnabledFilters, sessionImp.Factory);

    return translators[0].SQLString;
}

A: Based on the NHibernate version 3.4 the method for linq expression is:
public String GetGeneratedSql(System.Linq.IQueryable queryable, ISession session)
      {
         var sessionImp = (ISessionImplementor)session;
         var nhLinqExpression = new NhLinqExpression(queryable.Expression,
                                     sessionImp.Factory);
         var translatorFactory = new ASTQueryTranslatorFactory();
         var translators = translatorFactory.CreateQueryTranslators(nhLinqExpression.Key, nhLinqExpression, null, false,
                                                                sessionImp.EnabledFilters, sessionImp.Factory);

         var sql = translators.First().SQLString;
         var formamttedSql = FormatStyle.Basic.Formatter.Format(sql);
         int i = 0;
         var map = ExpressionParameterVisitor.Visit(queryable.Expression, sessionImp.Factory).ToArray();
         formamttedSql = Regex.Replace(formamttedSql, @"\?", m => map[i++].Key.ToString().Replace('"', '\''));

         return formamttedSql;
      }

A: Here is how to get generated Sql from Hql with NH 5.2 (a breaking change in NH 4.0.4 appeared which makes the Hql part of the top voted solution obsolete):
public string HqlToSql(string hql, ISession session)
{
    var sessionImp = (ISessionImplementor)session;
    var translatorFactory = new ASTQueryTranslatorFactory();
    var translators = translatorFactory.CreateQueryTranslators(new NHibernate.Hql.StringQueryExpression(hql),
         null, false, sessionImp.EnabledFilters, sessionImp.Factory);
    var hqlSqlGenerator = new HqlSqlGenerator(((QueryTranslatorImpl)translators[0]).SqlAST, sessionImp.Factory);
    hqlSqlGenerator.Generate();
    return hqlSqlGenerator.Sql.ToString();
}

A British University professor is undertaking what might just be the most glamorous and rock 'n' roll academic experiment ever, to live like and dress like David Bowie for an entire year. Will Brooker, from Kingston University's film and cultural studies department in London, is acting out different parts of the pop icon's life for the project titled 'Forever Stardust', beginning with late '60s Bowie.
A University professor is spending a year living as David Bowie.
The professor has said he wants to 'get into the singer's head' and will be dressing as him, acting like him and even following his various diets from the time periods.
"The idea is to inhabit Bowie's head space at points in his life and career to understand his work from an original angle, while retaining a critical and objective perspective at the same time – a kind of split persona perhaps," Brooker said.

"I start to dress like him, to wear make up like him and to follow his diet to a certain extent, which isn't a very healthy diet sometimes. I've gone for weekends, for instance, where I've just drank milk and ate red peppers," he added.
Brooker's experiment will see him totally immersed in Bowie's world, visiting the places where the singer lived and reading the books and watching the films which influenced him during the varied stages of his career.
When asked what Bowie himself might think about the project Brooker mused, "I hope he would be interested in and amused by my research. I do feel, though, that everything he says and does in public is performance, so if he did hear about it, we would be unlikely to know what he genuinely thought."

Three twenty-somethings still living like they are in college
If you have come across more perfect examples of boys in men's bodies than the three main characters of this Comedy Central half hour show then I would (or wouldn't) like to meet them. Adam (played by Adam DeVine), Blake (played by Blake Anderson) and Ders (played by Anders Holm) are in their late twenties, roommates and work as telemarketers for a company that does I don't know what. At a time in most people's lives where they are maturing, learning how to live away from their parents and settling down these guys are doing the exact opposite. In other words, they are twentysomething kids. The three live to work as little as possible, party as hard as they can and do the stupidest stuff known to man. All this is fine and dandy if you enjoy watching them get into trouble in each episode and then somehow despite themselves get out of it just as frequently. Episode 1: Orgazmo Birth: A co-worker (played by Erik Griffin) who Adam, Blake and Ders would not be caught dead hanging around with is so desperate to get out of the house and away from his very pregnant wife (played by Alex Borstein) buys the guys tickets to an EDM festival with the proviso that they hang out with him. Broke, the guys agree but on the day of a baby shower puts a spoke in their rave wheels. Stuck at the show their Molly and strawberry soda concoction provides the necessary fuel for a crazy party. Episode 2: Fry Guys: Blake is upset when the koi fish all die. In order to cheer him up Ders suggests a fish fry to honour the fallen fish. Alice (played by Maribeth Monroe), who has just been dumped by her well-endowed boyfriend, cancels the fish fry so the guys set about finding her a well-endowed replacement. Episode 3: Snackers: Alice is tired of hearing complaints about the snacks in the break room so she decides that someone will be elected to be in charge of it. The guys back Jillian (played by Jillian Bell). When she wins they are worse off than before due to her controlling nature. Episode 4: Miss BS: The guys are intimidated by a girl at the bus stop. She becomes important to them later. They invite television celebrity Miss BS (played by Erinn Hayes) to attend their fundraiser. She ends up spending the day with the guys at work and they end up on her show. Episode 5: Three and a Half Men: The guys want to make a film. They settle on making a documentary of Karl (played by Kyle Newacheck) cutting off his penis. Blake decides, and Karl agrees, that he is going to have the member attached to his body. Episode 6: Brociopath: The guys host a party for college kids at their place but it looks like it is going to be a bust when the power goes out due to Blake forgetting it was his turn to pay the bill. Then Stan (played by Will Greenberg) a former frat brother's Jungle Party Rules save things. For this frat guy, however, the party never stops. Episode 7: We Be Clownin': Too lazy to build a slide for their pool the guys post a job on Task Rabbit. To pay for the work they decide to take a simple job of their own. Though maybe working as clowns at kids' birthday parties is not as simple as they think? Episode 8: Beer Heist: Blake and Adam attempt to steal beer to impress some underage girls. They end up locked in the beer truck and driven to the factory. This doesn't stop them from wanting to carry out their plan, though, as it just gets larger scale. Episode 9: Best Buds: It is Tuesday and Adam points out they did not smoke last week's weed. To rectify this, the guys decide to have a bong fire. Karl tells them he is now legit and is planning to run a weed pharmacy. The guys quit their jobs to work there. Episode 10: Time Chair: If the guys get there first they can have a free massage chair. To accomplish that they steal go-karts from the employee appreciation event at the company next door. The race is on! Episode 11: The One Where The Guys Play Basketball and Do the "Friends" Title Thing: The guys are playing in a 3-on-3 basketball tournament at work. A two day trip to Reno is up for grabs. Adam takes steroids and ends up in the hospital leaving Ders and Blake one man short. Episode 12: DeputyDong: The guys plot a way to get back at their online gaming foe, DeputyDong (played by Kevin Heffernan). He turns out to be a cop. Once on the inside they get some help from an unlikely source. Episode 13: Friendship Anniversary: When their lease renewal comes the guys celebrate their seventh anniversary living together. At their celebratory dinner a fight breaks out. They end up each going their own way. Special Features: Outtakes, Deleted and Alternate Scenes, Promos for Season 4

Download Ebook Free Bull Mountain
Author : Brian Panowich
Winner of the ITW Thriller Award for Best First Novel From a remarkable voice in Southern fiction comes a multigenerational saga of crime, family, and vengeance. Clayton Burroughs comes from a long line of outlaws. For generations, the Burroughs clan has made its home on Bull Mountain in North Georgia, running shine, pot, and meth over six state lines, virtually untouched by the rule of law. To distance himself from his family's criminal empire, Clayton took the job of sheriff in a neighboring community to keep what peace he can. But when a federal agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms shows up at Clayton's office with a plan to shut down the mountain, his hidden agenda will pit brother against brother, test loyalties, and could lead Clayton down a path to self-destruction. In a sweeping narrative spanning decades and told from alternating points of view, the novel brilliantly evokes the atmosphere of the mountain and its inhabitants: forbidding, loyal, gritty, and ruthless. A story of family—the lengths men will go to protect it, honor it, or in some cases destroy it—Bull Mountain is an incredibly assured debut that heralds a major new talent in fiction. "Panowich stamps words on the page as if they've been blasted from the barrel of a shotgun, and as with a shotgun blast, no one is safe from the scattered fragments of history that impale the people of Bull Mountain."—Wiley Cash, New York Times-bestselling author of This Dark Road to Mercy

"A book filled with unforgettable characters and a tension that heightens with every chapter." —The Wall Street Journal A powerful follow up to multiple award-winning debut Bull Mountain. Brian Panowich burst onto the crime fiction scene in 2015, winning awards and accolades from readers and critics alike for his smoldering debut, Bull Mountain. Now with Like Lions, he cements his place as one of the outstanding new voices in crime fiction. Clayton Burroughs is a small-town Georgia sheriff, a new father, and, improbably, the heir apparent of Bull Mountain's most notorious criminal family. As he tries to juggle fatherhood, his job and his recovery from being shot in the confrontation that killed his two criminally-inclined brothers last year, he's doing all he can just to survive. Yet after years of carefully toeing the line between his life in law enforcement and his family, he finally has to make a choice. When a rival organization makes a first foray into Burroughs territory, leaving a trail of bodies and a whiff of fear in its wake, Clayton is pulled back into the life he so desperately wants to leave behind. Revenge is a powerful force, and the vacuum left by his brothers' deaths has left them all vulnerable. With his wife and child in danger, and the way of life in Bull Mountain under siege for everyone, Clayton will need to find a way to bury the bloody legacy of his past once and for all.
Hard Cash Valley
"The plotting is skilled, as is the sleuthing, and the landscape is stunning. But it's the hard-jawed characters, with their tough talk and scarred souls, who really get under your skin." — Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review Return to McFalls County and Bull Mountain in Hard Cash Valley, where Brian Panowich weaves another masterful tale of Southern Noir. Dane Kirby is a broken man and no stranger to tragedy. As a life-long resident and ex-arson investigator for McFalls County, Dane has lived his life in one of the most chaotic and crime-ridden regions of the south. When he gets called in to consult on a brutal murder in a Jacksonville, Florida, motel room, he and his FBI counterpart, Special Agent Roselita Velasquez, begin an investigation that leads them back to the criminal circles of his own backyard. Arnie Blackwell's murder in Jacksonville is only the beginning – and Dane and Roselita seem to be one step behind. For someone is hacking a bloody trail throughout the Southeast looking for Arnie's younger brother, a boy with Asperger's Syndrome who possesses an unusual skill with numbers that could make a lot of money and that has already gotten a lot of people killed—and has even more of the deadliest people alive willing to do anything it takes to exploit him. As Dane joins in the hunt to find the boy, it swiftly becomes a race against the clock that has Dane entangled in a web of secrets involving everyone from the Filipino Mafia to distrusting federal agents to some of hardest southern outlaws he's ever known.

O Prof. Nicolas Bertrand (website), pesquisador da Laval University do Canada, discute no "Café com Ciência" como modificações (superficiais) em nanopartículas poliméricas afetam a interação com sistema imunológico inato e adaptativo.
The architecture of nanoparticles governs how they are perceived by the host upon administration. To develop efficient nanomedicines, the mechanisms regulating blood circulation and clearance need to be understood. In this work, we will visit how libraries of nanoparticles can be used to study the impact of the innate and adaptive immune systems on the clearance of drug delivery systems, after one multiple injections.
Our laboratory studies liposomes and nanoparticles prepared from poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PEG-PLGA)copolymers. Using pharmacokinetic and biodistribution in mice and rats, we try to understand how interrelationships between circulatory, metabolic and immune systems dictate the biological fate of nanoparticles. Comparing systems with a broad range of physicochemical properties, we believe we can find structure-activity relationships that help building better performing technologies.

Elisabeth Jäckel wins UvA preliminary round of 3MT PhD pitch competition
Industrial and organizational psychologist Elisabeth Jäckel, PhD candidate with the section Leadership & Management at Economics & Business, has won the UvA preliminary round of the international Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) pitch competition. In the 3MT competition, PhD candidates pitch their research in three-minute videos aimed at an audience of non-scientists. Elisabeth will represent the UvA this autumn at the European final.

Fifteen UvA PhD candidates were selected by their faculties to participate in this preliminary round, which took place in CREA on Thursday, 8 September. The jury, consisting of BNR science editor Karlijn Meinders, UvA press officer Bob Munten and IXA-UvA director Rudi Rust, after deliberations unanimously chose Jäckel as the winner. She investigates the influence of 'active listening' on the outcome of negotiations. The jury found that in her pitch the research topic and explanation merged naturally with Jäckel's body language, making the message very convincing. Jäckel will receive €1,000 and can record a new pitch video for the European final.

The jury also chose two runners-up: chemist Tom Keijer from the Faculty of Science/ Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences and art historian Weixuan Li from the Faculty of Humanities/ Amsterdam School of Historical Studies. They conduct research into artificial photosynthesis and the lives of 17th-century painters and their clientele in Amsterdam, respectively. In addition to an honorable mention, the runners-up will both receive €500. The jury indicated that they were impressed by the high quality of the pitches from all of the participants.
The 3MT competition has proved to be a springboard for previous UvA winners. Last year's winner, Yoni Schirris of the Faculty of Science, was subsequently invited to give a workshop at the Intelligent Health Summit Amsterdam 2021. His professionally shot pitch video also helped him secure a position as a guest researcher at a leading research group in his field of expertise in Germany.
900 universities
The 3MT® competition originally started at the University of Queensland (Australia) and has since grown into an international competition with participants from 900 universities across 85 countries. Elisabeth Jäckel will compete in the autumn with the winners from other European countries. This European final is organised by Universitas 21 (U21), the international network of research-intensive universities of which the UvA is a member. The European winner will eventually take part in the grand global final between the continents in Spring 2023.

High school teammates BrynCaitlin Walker and Karley York reunited at North Texas
by Courtney Anderson
For many, starting college can be an overwhelming and scary experience. With new people, new buildings and a different atmosphere, the transition is often eased with the help of friends.
That is exactly what happened on the North Texas volleyball team.
Freshman outside hitter BrynCaitlin Walker joined the Mean Green after being introduced to UNT by former and current teammate, sophomore setter Karley York. Walker and York both attended Churchill High School in San Antonio, where for two years they were varsity teammates, making it to the state tournament and forming a bond.
"Our high school team's program was very family-like and disciplined," Walker said. "I knew if Karley liked it here, it would most likely be a good fit for me as well."
York was first spotted by head coach Andrew Palileo's former assistant two years ago. Once she was brought to his attention, Palileo knew York was the setter he would target.
"We were looking for a setter for 2015 and the assistant coaches are always out looking and identifying players," Palileo said. "We followed Karley for a little bit and I decided she would be a good fit for this team."

During York's first year with North Texas, she earned a spot on the Conference USA commissioner's honor roll and notched a career-best 43 assists against Abilene Christian University – a record she broke earlier this season.
For Churchill head volleyball coach Jo Anne Hultgren, the success her former players are experiencing comes as little surprise. While at Churchill, Hultgren said, the tandem's passion and dedication was unmatched.
"I remember [Karley] because of her drive," Hultgren said. "She would never stop pursuing a ball. She would run into walls, the score table, people, just everything. She just would never stop going for the ball. BrynCaitlin was such a hard working individual. They both were."
In just half a season, Walker has already made an impact on the team, and become a very integral part of the offense. In her NCAA debut, Walker set her career-high with 16 kills and 39 attack attempts.
With Walker being thrust into a starting position early in her career, York knew she could use some tactics from high school to the team's advantage.
"I already know what kind of sets she likes," York said. "I know she is as an all-around person and player, so I see it as an advantage for us and the team."
Despite the duo being teammates in high school, Palileo sees that as nothing more than a happy coincidence. In fact, it was not until Walker attended a Mean Green volleyball camp that the coaching staff decided to make her an offer.
For Walker, though, there was one thing in particular that convinced her to come to Denton.
"The [team] I guess you could say, as cheesy as it sounds, sold it to me the most," Walker said. "They all were just so nice and welcoming to me, and just had a lot of fun."
With York's success luring Walker out of high school, Palileo acknowledged sometimes it is not the coaching staff that makes the best recruiters, but the players themselves.
"Our best recruiters are always the ones that are playing for us," Palileo said. "[They] go home and talk about the experience they are having here. That's why we try to make sure our players have the best experience they can."

Home Movie Review Movie Review: Paranormal Activity 3
Movie Review: Paranormal Activity 3
DAM 4:57 PM Movie Review
The first film scared the hell out of me. The second movie, though still at par in terms of suspense and scares, was an underwhelming rehash of the original. To my surprise, Paranormal Activity 3 ended up being possibly my favorite of the franchise. Yes, it didn't have the freshness of the original, but this was easily the creepiest of the three.
Everything that made the first Paranormal Activity was still here, from the slow progression of the story to the horrifyingly subtle build up of tension. The scares were, once again, well planned and it got to me on many levels. Nothing was revealed too soon and that actually made this whole franchise a lot more effective than it's contemporaries.
Also, there were some pretty excellent and clever techniques used to build the suspense in this film - which I really thought wasn't possible. I mean, the idea of the rotating fan stand with the camera planted on top of it was PURE GENIUS! There were some seriously and genuinely frightening moments as I wait for the camera to slowly move back to its original frame. Hate to admit it, but these were the scenes that forced my hands to cover my eyes in utter suspense. Haha.
Oh, and the characters were incredibly likable and charming. They weren't as stiff as the other leads from previous films and the kids were actually quite impressive. I was waiting for them to screw up with the acting, but they didn't. The kids really gave some exceptionally believable acting that added to the whole creepiness of it all.
Now, as for the end, I would say that it was surprisingly well executed that it somehow lost the "rawness" of the film. There were no break in the tension during the last 15 minutes of the movie, which was great - and yes, everyone were literally screaming very loudly throughout this part - but somehow, those scenes suddenly gave way to a couple of plot holes in terms of continuity. It's somehow a nonsensical ending, but whatever.
In a year where I felt bombarded by remakes of old movies and unoriginal premises, I was genuinely impressed by Paranormal Activity 3. It's unpretentious goal was to be an entertaining, scary horror flick, and it succeeded with flying colors. It's not a well-rounded or an intelligent movie, but I had a blast watching it with a crowd of equally entertained moviegoers, and for this type of movie that's what really matters.

The Atkins diet, the South Beach diet, the Grapefruit diet, the Cabbage Soup diet — we know all these fad diets have their limits, because ultimately, the only way to lose weight is to eat fewer calories and burn more.
But have you ever thought about what controls your appetite? What if your body didn't tell you to stop eating when you'd consumed enough calories?
You'd gain weight, that's what. It's long been known that mutations in a gene called MC4R cause mice to become bigger and fatter than their regular counterparts. It's thought that eating a lot causes the body to turn on MC4R, which in turn tells the mice to stop eating by making them feel full. There are also rare variations that disrupt the human MC4R protein and cause children to eat too much, leading to severe childhood obesity.
Interesting, you say, but does this apply to the general population too? Research published online Sunday in the journal Nature Genetics suggests that the answer is yes.
A large study of over 77,000 Europeans by Loos et al. found a SNP near the MC4R gene, rs17782313, that was strongly associated with body mass index (BMI), a measure of obesity. (To calculate your own BMI, go to: http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/bmicalc.htm) They found that each copy of the C version of rs17782313 was associated with an increase of 0.22 BMI units in adults (for a person of my height, 5 ft 3 in, that's a little over a pound). In children, they found that this SNP had an even larger effect. Unlike the rare changes in MC4R that cause severe childhood obesity, 30 to 50% of the population has at least one copy of the C allele of rs17782313.
A second paper by Chambers et al., also published online Sunday in Nature Genetics, studied more than 14,000 Indian Asians and Europeans and found that a different SNP near MC4R, rs12970134, is associated with waist circumference. Each copy of the A version is associated with a 0.88 cm (0.3 in) increase in waist circumference. That means that on average, the waists of people with two copies of the A version of rs12970134 are 0.6 inches larger than the waists of people with two copies of the other version of the SNP. Talk about pinching an inch!
23andMe customers can use the table below to figure out what these SNPs mean for them. While we do not genotype rs17782313, we do genotype rs10871777, which is considered equivalent to rs17782313 in Europeans and Asians. The C version of rs17782313 is equivalent to the G allele of rs10871777.
Fortunately for most of us, genes are only one player in our risk for obesity, as our behavior and environment can still play a large role in maintaining a healthy weight.
Calculating your BMI: You can calculate your own BMI using the following formula: multiply your weight in pounds by 0.454 to get your weight in kilograms. Then multiply your height in inches by .0254 to get your height in meters and square the result. Divide your weight in kilograms by your height in meters squared to get your BMI. A BMI less than 18.5 is considered underweight, between 18.5 and 24.9 normal, between 25 and 29.9 overweight, and above 30, obese.

Climate Change: Impacts are "Accelerating"
The data, compiled by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), says the five-year period from 2014 to 2019 is the warmest on record. Sea-level rise has accelerated significantly over the same period, as CO2 emissions have hit new highs.
Global temperatures have risen by 1.1 degrees C since 1850. Experts note that they have gone up by 0.2C between 2011 and 2015.
Perhaps most worrying of all is the data on sea-level rise.
The average rate of rise since 1993 until now is 3.2mm per year. However, from May 2014 to 2019 the rise has increased to 5mm per year. The 10-year period from 2007-2016 saw an average of about 4mm per year.
"Sea-level rise has accelerated and we are concerned that an abrupt decline in the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets, which will exacerbate future rise," said WMO secretary general Petteri Taalas.

I didn't mean to post this so abruptly, without even a word of explanation, but I had an inquiry about a Ladybug Cake and I quickly realized that I had never posted this cake on my website (although it is on my Facebook album here or here).
This cake was a huge hit for a little girl's FIRST birthday party! The ladybug head was made of Rice Krispie Treats, then the entire thing was covered in homemade marshmallow fondant. The "grass" was colored coconut!
I also made these ladybug cupcakes because the customer needed a few extra servings!
These were sort of "thrown together" at the last minute, but I think they turned out pretty cute!
The cake is absolutely darling. I never think about doing things like using rice krispie treats for a part. I haven't tried making and decorating with fondant yet. Thank you for including the photos of the cupcakes because those might be a first step for me before I try a large cake with fondant.
Thanks for all the info!! The ladybug looks amazing!!
Question, when i went to the marshmallow fondant recipe you said that you'd use satin ice for red and black colours since they're difficult to achieve. For this ladybug cake, did you use mm fondant, satin ice or a mix?
My daughter has just decided she wants a Ladybug cake for her birthday and I would love to have a go. Is there any chance you can disclose what size / shape tin you used to create the ladybugs body please.

For the past few months I have changed the way we dine.
I used to serve up all our dinner at the kitchen and everyone would receive their plate with their allocted food on it.
I've changed things up and realised that my old way of serving dinner was just not conducive to a happy meal time.
Now....all the parts of the meal are lovingly placed into the centre of the table. One or both the children share in setting the table, putting out the empty plates, the old jar with our cutlery, handmade napkins and condiments.
I am adjusting the way I cook too. Smaller quantities but more variety...always some vegetables or a salad or even both. Some fresh bread may be added to a meal, or day old bread turned into bruschetta in the oven. Leftovers are added to the table to for someone to polish off or are even creatively turned into something else.
Now my family are in charge of what they add on their plate. Encouraged to try but not forced. They determine if they want more. There is an exchange of plates...as we all help ourselves or help each other.
The change has made for real family affair. Dinner is an event where we are all together, as a family. We come together to nurture our bodies to discuss our day and relish the time spent together.
How do you do your family meals?
Dinner time has become precious in our home and while it was the one meal that we all enjoyed together, with our two big boys working long shifts now, we rarely get the opportunity to eat together.
While cooking dinner our middle two often help in some way and recently we have been encouraging Kaizer to help set the table. Like you I much prefer to place all food on the table for us each to help ourselves...I find there is much less wastage this way.
I must say that since you suggested this at our last catch up, that I've been truly inspired. It's a bit more effort, but I feel that the family get to choose what they like. The only downside is ensuring the kids don't eat too much savoury, and eat their vegies, but other than that, it's such a fabulous thing to do! I love the way you worded it: "Coming together to nurture our bodies..." beautiful!
We do exactly the same here lovely one. You've painted such a lovely image of it! I wish I could come to dinner at your lovely home. WIshing you a beautiful Wednesday.
Lovely. We always ate together from shared dishes growing up. However, I am still serving up an early dinner for the kids before B gets home from work, followed by an adults dinner a couple of hours later when they are in bed. On the weekends we occasionally have an early "family dinner". The tone is always calmer and more pleasant. I am looking forward to the shift to (slightly) later bedtimes so we can eat together regularly.
we do it around the table, properly set, with lots of talk about the good things that happened today.
We tend to do the buffet style thing too. Though I usually dish pasta up. I was brought up in a house where dinner was always dished up and there was never any left over. Hubbies family always had a lot, and I mean a lot (!) of food on the table. I think we sit somewhere in the middle. By the way, love the tablecloth!
Such a lovely setting. We do the same here too. I love how it gives the meal a sense of occasion and puts everyone in a lighter mood. We recently added candles to the dinner table. It's still light when we eat, but the gentle flicker of the flame is soothing and pretty.

Katie Pulled Off The Biggest Bachelorette Plot Twist With Thomas' Elimination
Bachelor Nation is living for her latest rose ceremony.
by Kadin Burnett
(ABC/Craig Sjodin)
Thomas Jacobs entered The Bachelorette with a beaming smile atop a 6'6" frame of radiance, but he established himself as this season's newest villain in just three short episodes. Obviously, the original antagonist was the much-maligned Karl, who, and I hate to say this, was ultimately right about his wild claims about some of the men's intentions. At the end of the June 13 episode, Karl took it upon himself to tell Katie some men weren't there for the right reasons. After refusing to give up a name, the men unionized and convinced Katie to send Karl home for starting seemingly baseless drama.
Jump ahead just one episode to June 20, and Thomas spilled his guts during an honesty-themed group date, revealing he originally came on the show to grow his platform. This drama reached its crescendo later in the episode when more men confronted Thomas, questioning his intentions. One contestant, Hunter, asked Thomas if he had his eyes on being the next Bachelor, to which Thomas responded, "Yes, that was a thought that was on my mind."
Not to take sides, but it's at least a little understandable that upon being cast for The Bachelorette, you'd consider the possibility of potentially becoming the next Bachelor. But that's not something you say out loud.
Thomas did try to save some face with Katie, finagling two sets of alone time with her. The first session involved Thomas referencing some of his "red flags" but never actually revealing what they are and dodging all of Katie's follow-ups. His second bit of privacy with Katie culminated in telling her that he's falling in love with her. As you can see, Thomas is a bit of a rollercoaster.
However, ahead of the June 28 episode, Katie tweeted a picture of her younger self holding a snake with some text that reads, "Men with [red flags]." Being compared to a snake is never a good sign, especially not for Thomas, who was free-falling out of favor with his co-contestants and the lead all night.
Episode 4 had a major turning point during a post-group date cocktail party that pitted Andrew S. against Tre. Tre was firmly of the belief that someone should tell Katie about Thomas' potential duplicity, while Andrew S. believed the group should trust Katie's judgment and allow her to cull her men at her will. Ultimately, Tre told her about Thomas' machinations of becoming the next Bachelor. Katie, obviously taken aback by this massive revelation about one of her favorites, began questioning her relationship with Thomas, raising concerns about him to Tayshia and Kaitlyn.
The Thomas fiasco only escalated after he sought out more alone time with Katie wherein he pleaded his case and spoke his truth. His efforts essentially just left Katie more confused about if and how she wanted to move forward. Upon returning to the rest of the men — all waiting for the Rose Ceremony and trash-talking Thomas — the rift between the real estate agent and the rest of the house was irreparable. Thomas then outdid himself at the Rose Ceremony, publicly apologizing to Katie for having ulterior motives without ever actually saying he was there for the wrong reasons.
Before Katie gave out her final rose, though, she pulled off a major plot twist by calling Thomas' name as if she would ask him to stay. But under the auspices of a rose, she told him, "Your Bachelor audition is over," sending him on his way and continuing her streak of shocking eliminations for a third week in a row.

To sum up the change in media and how it has changed is that as technology has moved on over time it has affected the best way things are being introduced and the way it can get to any information inside minutes, for instance September 11th was on our televisions just minutes after the primary airplane had crashed into the primary tower, and the way it came on our TV as 'breaking information' and that they'd a news correspondent there dwell in New York.

Crazy Eddie's Motie News
A blog about societal, cultural, and civilizational collapse, and how to stave it off or survive it. Named after the legendary character "Crazy Eddie" in Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle's "The Mote in God's Eye." Expect news and views about culture, politics, economics, technology, and science fiction.
"Death of a Nation" and "Fahrenheit 11/9" earn four Razzie nominations each, including two shared ones for Donald Trump
I twice promised an entry about the Razzie nominees, so it's time to follow through. Without any further ado, here are the 39th Razzie® Award Nominations!
With a stumbling stock market, a possible impending Presidential impeachment, raging wild fires, devastating floods, mass shootings and a litany of plagues that reached near Biblical proportions, 2018 was a year overfull with disasters.
39th Annual RAZZIE® AWARD NOMINATIONS
WORST PICTURE
The Happytime Murders
Holmes & Watson
This wouldn't be a Razzie field without some bad speculative fiction movies. This year, it's "The Happytime Murders," "Winchester," and arguably "Robin Hood." As for bad movies about politics and government, I will have to settle three, maybe four, nominees about crime and punishment, "Gotti," "The Happytime Murders," "Holmes & Watson," and again arguably "Robin Hood." Between these two ways of slicing the nominees, I've managed to nick all of them.
WORST ACTRESS
Jennifer Garner / Peppermint
Amber Heard / London Fields
Melissa McCarthy / Happytime Murders and Life of the Party
Helen Mirren / Winchester
Amanda Seyfried / The Clapper
This field has more crime and punishment with "Peppermint," which I had high hopes for as a female-led action movie. Its nomination for Jennifer Garner along with those for the rest all appear to be examples of bringing big names (more or less, Amber Heard and Amanda Seyfried show more promise than achievement) down low. Without the Razzies, I'd probably never have heard of either "London Fields" or "The Clapper." Maybe I would have been better off.
Now the first of four nominations for "Death of a Nation," a sequel of sorts to "Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party," a four-time Razzie winner.
WORST ACTOR
Johnny Depp (Voice Only) Sherlock Gnomes
Will Ferrell / Holmes & Watson
John Travolta / Gotti
Donald J. Trump (As Himself) Death of a Nation and Fahrenheit 11/9
Bruce Willis / Death Wish
Yes, readers, your eyes are telling you the truth. President Donald J. Trump earned a nomination for being himself in two movies, both of them documentaries. At least I'm taking his and other nominations for "Fahrenheit 11/9" as a comment on Trump, not the movie.
Also, I suspect having Amber Heard and Johnny Depp both being nominated for acting awards in the same year is the Razzie Awards voters' idea of a joke. If so, it's not very funny. Still, it's another nomination for speculative fiction.
WORST SUPPORTING ACTOR
Jamie Fox / Robin Hood
Ludacris (Voice Only) Show Dogs
Joel McHale / Happytime Murders
John C. Reilly / Holmes & Watson
Justice Smith / Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
Oh, look, a nomination for a movie, "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom," that might also earn a Oscar nomination or two for Best Visual Effects or Best Sound Editing. Add that to the nomination for "Show Dogs" and it's two more for speculative fiction (I am counting "Show Dogs" as fantasy).
Now for more political nominees.
WORST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
Kellyanne Conway (As Herself) Fahrenheit 11/9
Marcia Gay Harden / Fifty Shades Freed
Kelly Preston / Gotti
Jaz Sinclair / Slender Man
Melania Trump (As Herself) Fahrenheit 11/9
Kellyanne Conway and Melania Trump are competing against each other in "Fahrenheit 9/11." At least they didn't earn double nominations for being in "Death of a Nation," although I suspect the D'Souza documentary might have had their nominations in the Michael Moore film misattributed to it. Also, my prediction that "Fifty Shades Freed" would earn at least one Razzie nomination came true even though the one about it earning a Grammy nomination didn't. Sorry, 2018 was too good a year for movie songs. Finally, add "Slender Man" to the roster of bad speculative fiction films nominated.
WORST SCREEN COMBO
Any Two Actors or Puppets (Especially in Those Creepy Sex Scenes) Happytime Murders
Johnny Depp & His Fast-Fading Film Career (He's doing voices for cartoons, fer kripesakes!) Sherlock Gnomes
Will Ferrell & John C. Reilly (Trashing Two of Literature's Most Beloved Characters) Holmes & Watson
Kelly Preston & John Travolta (Getting BATTLEFIELD EARTH type Reviews!) Gotti
Donald J. Trump & His Self Perpetuating Pettiness / Death of a Nation & Fahrenheit 11/9
Finally, a category with no new nominees. Also, I think Will Ferrell & John C. Reilly should win, but if I voted, it would be for Donald J. Trump & His Self Perpetuating Pettiness. Hahaha! Too true!
WORST REMAKE, RIP-OFF or SEQUEL
Death of a Nation (Remake of Hillary's America...)
The Meg (Rip-Off of Jaws)
And "The Meg" makes for the final speculative fiction nominee. As for "Death of a Nation," it was lucky it wasn't nominated for Worst Picture, too.
WORST DIRECTOR
Etan Cohen / Holmes & Watson
Kevin Connolly / Gotti
James Foley / Fifty Shades Freed
Brian Henson / Happytime Murders
The Spierig Brothers (Michael & Peter) / Winchester
And Dinesh D'Souza should consider himself lucky he wasn't nominated for Worst Director. However, he didn't escape being nominated for the next category.
WORST SCREENPLAY
Death of a Nation, Written by Dinesh D'Souza & Bruce Schooley
Fifty Shades Freed, Screenplay by Niall Leonard, from the Novel by E.L. James
Gotti, Screenplay by Leo Rossi and Lem Dobbs
Happytime Murders, Screenplay by Todd Berger, Story by Berger and Dee Austin Robinson
Winchester, Written by Tom Vaughan and The Spierig Brothers
The Razzie Awards tried to be helpful by providing the following, but managed to be incomplete in interesting and possibly revealing ways. That, or they failed at math.
NOMINATIONS PER PICTURE
Gotti = 6
Holmes & Watson = 6
Death of a Nation = 6
Happytime Murders = 6
Winchester = 4
Robin Hood = 3
Fifty Shades Freed = 3
Death Wish = 2
First, I only count four nominations for "Death of a Nation," not six. The only way it could have earned six would be if the Razzie tabulators screwed up by counting Kellyanne Conway and Melania Trump's nominations for "Fahrenheit 11/9" as part of the total for "Death of a Nation." Oops! Speaking of which, the total doesn't list "Fahrenheit 11/9" or its four nominations. Remember when I wrote that "I'm taking his and other nominations for 'Fahrenheit 11/9' as a comment on Trump, not the movie." This omission strengthens my suspicion. That, or the Razzie tabulators were sloppy. Either would work. Also, "Sherlock Gnomes" earned two nominations, both for Johnny Depp. That one I'm chalking up to sloppiness; the Razzies certainly wouldn't cut Depp any slack!
So, just for completeness, "Death of A Nation" earned four (not six) nominations, Donald J. Trump (As Himself) for Worst Actor, Donald J, Trump & His Self Perpetuating Pettiness for Worst Screen Combo, Worst Remake, Rip-off, or Sequel, and Worst Screenplay. "Fahrenheit 11/9" also earned four nominations, Donald J. Trump (As Himself) for Worst Actor, Donald J, Trump & His Self Perpetuating Pettiness for Worst Screen Combo, and Kellyanne Conway and Melania Trump as themselves for Worst Supporting Actress.

Senator adds "Every Sperm is Sacred" amendment onto Oklahoma personhood bill
Amazing. After Oklahoma conservatives introduced a "personhood" bill to the state Senate on Monday, Sen. Constance Johnson decided to follow in Virginia Senator Janet Howell's footsteps and attach an amendment in protest, which would add this language to the bill:
However, any action in which a man ejaculates or otherwise deposits semen anywhere but in a woman's vagina shall be interpreted and construed as an action against an unborn child.
Jezebel adds that another pro-choice senator added an amendment:
Another pro-choice legislator, Democrat Jim Wilson, attempted to add an amendment to the bill that would require the father of the child to be financially responsible for the woman's health care, housing, transportation, and nourishment while she was pregnant.
I second Erin's contention that this new trend of legislators attaching snarky, ridiculous amendments to ridiculous bills that infringe on our uteri are kind of genius. It started just last week when Sen. Janet Howell decided to attach an amendment to a Virginia bill that would force a woman to have a vaginal ultrasound before an abortion — the clause being that men would have to undergo a rectal exam before getting Viagra.
Not shockingly, Howell's amendment didn't pass, and neither did either of these (Johnson even withdrew hers after making her point). But while these amendments may not go anywhere, what it does — as Jill points out — is force the conversation, and point out just how warped and straight-up sexist this kind of legislation is. In short, if men were subject to the same kinds of invasive, ridiculously fucked requirements women are in order to be sexually active, they'd completely lose it. Keep 'em coming, Dems.

Polls Project Landslide Victory for Abortion Rights in Ireland
Polls just closed in Ireland on a historic vote to repeal the Eighth Amendment of the Irish constitution, one of the most restrictive bans on abortion anywhere in Europe. The Eighth Amendment prohibits all abortion, starting at conception, effectively criminalizing abortion in all but the most extreme threats to the mother's life. The results aren't expected until late Saturday — but exit polls are projecting a landslide victory for the repeal.
The Irish Times' exit poll projects the results will be 68–32 for repeal — a bigger margin of victory than even the most optimistic supporters of abortion rights predicted. It's an incredible ...
