Tyler Perry joins TMNT sequel as Baxter Stockman
Cowabunga, again.
By Jackson Tyler February 20, 2020
I'll defend last year's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles far more than most. To me, that's a perhaps unintentionally subversive movie about what happens when you focus a Michael Bay movie around the woman as the lead. She's consistently objectified, every single character keeps throwing unwanted advances in her direction, and no one takes her seriously. But because we see the film from her perspective, suddenly the grossness of all these actions ceases to be invisible, turning the film into one with a nice message that men should probably shut up from time to time. I mean, Will Arnett plays a fedora wearing nice guy old enough to be April's Dad!
I've no idea how much of that was intentional and how much was accidental, but the film made so much money that we're gonna find out soon if they manage to keep it up in the sequel. In addition to Bebop, Rocksteady and Casey Jones, it's going to include Baxter Stockman, pretty much rounding off the crew of TMNT regular characters.
Fresh off his scene stealing turn in Gone Girl, Tyler Perry has been chosen to play Baxter in the sequel, which is pretty much perfect casting if you ask me. Now all they need to do is, well, hire someone half way competent to write the script and I'll be ready to start looking forward to this one.

Q: Is there way that i can pass role for user in user registration , i'm currently passing a list of strings and it's working is postman but not in front So i'm trying to add role to my user when i create a new one but it doesn't seem to work , i don't understand the reason.

This is my model for user

Chemistry is the science of matter, especially its chemical reactions, but also its composition, structure and properties. Chemistry is concerned with atoms and their interactions with other atoms, and particularly with the properties of chemical bonds.
Chemistry is sometimes called "the central science" because it connects physics with other natural sciences such as geology and biology. Chemistry is a branch of physical science but distinct from physics.
The etymology of the word chemistry has been much disputed. The genesis of chemistry can be traced to certain practices, known as alchemy, which had been practiced for several millennia in various parts of the world, particularly the Middle East.


"Woodland Park -- a great artsy mountain community just north of Colorado Springs"
Woodland Park is a cool place that tourists should visit as well as Colorado residents just touring our beautiful state. To live here...that would be nice! The average household income is reported to be $53,000 and while less elaborate and high end than the neighborhoods of Woodmoor to the eat, Woodland Park is not cheap. Homes in the "City Above the Clouds" at about 8500 feet are pretty and there are a lot of architectural style in the area. You can find nice classic Colorado properties with cabins for about $200,000 and amazingly elaborate homes in the millions.
There is a love of music and arts in Woodland Park and there is a dinosaur/fossil museum in town too. The 7,600 residents can hide away in their pretty little town or drive just 18 miles south to Colorado Springs for shopping and the benefits of the city.
"A growing mountain town just outside of Pike National Forest"
Every summer my family and I go to Woodland Park several times for camping and fishing. The town itself has grown a lot over the years and is now a busy little place. There are some touristy places here, but mostly it's a community of laid back easy-going folks who enjoy mountain living but have enough shopping and dining options to not need to go any further. There are many restaurants, businesses, grocery stores and gas stations. I love that when WalMart wanted to come to town the town agreed only if the store was built with the surrounding beauty of the mountains incorporated into the building. Although it is the same as any WalMart in the cities, the outside is made of gorgeous logs with a feel of a mountain setting.
There are numerous things to do in and around Woodland Park and it's an outdoor enthusiasts dream. Camping, hiking, fishing, and the likes can all be found just minutes from downtown. For those who wish to stay in the town there is the Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Center which has lots of exhibits on dinosaurs, mammals, reptiles, and marine life. There is also the Ute Pass Historical Society which runs the Pikes Peak Museum and has six historical building that were used by the Indians and first settlers to the area.
Although the population of Woodland Park is just over 7,000, it seems much bigger in some ways. The many shops and restaurants are all inviting and the residents seem very nice. The schools here are rated above average compared to the rest of the state of Colorado.
I would highly recommend Woodland Park to visitors and those searching for a great mountain town to call home. The views are spectacular, the townspeople friendly, the schools good, and the overall atmosphere appealing.
How much is it to rent a nice 2-3 bedroom home in Woodland Park?
Does anyone know of a good place to go snowshoeing in Woodland Park?

Q: Hyper-V: Guest external internet access Following setup:
Host machine has 1 physical NIC
Host OS = Win Server 2008 R2 (hosted in data center)
Guest OS = Win Home Server 2011
Network setup basically as described here or here.
Goal: Connect from within the guest VM to the internet.
Question #1: How is this supposed to work? My guest OS has a static IP "A" (a real, external one, so not a local 192.168.x.x one [same applies for all other involved IPs]). In order to reach the internet it now needs to route through the host OS (IP "B") and the router (IP "C") in the data center.
I can ping from "A" to "B", but my guest cannot see the router/gateway (Wireshark keeps showing ARP requests regarding who knows "C"). Shouldn't my host OS (which of course knows the router and vice versa) be able to deliver that information to my guest? If yes, then any ideas what might prevent it to do so?
Note: I test-wise set up an additional "internal" hyper-V network connection between the host and the client in the hope that this could help the gateway propagation, and eventually it did...at least my guest started to "know" the gateway and connected through it to the internet. So is this the only way? Is it the correct way or must something else have been responsible for the resolution?
Question #2: If I remove the static IP "A" from my guest and set IP retrieval back to auto, it receives a local IP, but from who? I don't not have a DHCP server role on my host OS and according to question #1, my guest cannot see the router (which would be the logical next DHCP provider from my point of view)?

A: Question 1: NO - if you set up a public network in Hyper-V then the host IP and the Client IP coexist. The NIC basically gets routed through a virtual switch - clients and host are on the same ethernet segment connected to the outside world. NO ROUTING.
Question 2: Either a DHCP server somewhere or an automatic local Address that is negotiated. Note that "somewhere" can be the data center - again: The host and the client share a public ethernet port. Pretty much like putting in a separate NIC for the client and then a hardware switch in front - just that the switch is virtual. The client will send a DHCP request and Hyper-V will forward it into the data center.

Matthew Brooke ("Matt") Jansen  (Carlisle, 20 oktober 1977) is een Engels voormalig betaald voetballer die doorgaans als aanvaller speelde.

Biografie
Jansen is vooral bekend om zijn periode bij Blackburn Rovers, waarmee hij vijf seizoenen actief was in de Premier League. Blackburn Rovers nam hem in de winter van 1999 over van Crystal Palace. Jansen vond daar tijdens de eerste seizoenshelft vlot de weg naar doel. Het seizoen van zijn komst naar Ewood Park, 1998/99, resulteerde voor Blackburn Rovers in degradatie naar de Football League First Division. In mei 2001 promoveerde de club, met Jansen, weer naar de Premier League. Jansen scoorde 19 doelpunten voor de club uit 97 wedstrijden in de Premier League. In 2003 werd de centrumspits even uitgeleend aan toenmalig tweedeklasser Coventry City. Jansen en Andy Cole (ex-Manchester United) scoorden de doelpunten in de gewonnen League Cup-finale van 2002 tegen Tottenham Hotspur. Nochtans miste Blackburn enkele belangrijke spelers zoals de Turk Tugay Kerimoğlu en aanvoerder Garry Flitcroft. Beiden misten de finale door een schorsing. Jansens doelpunt zorgde mee voor de 2–1 eindstand. In 2006 verliet hij de club. Jansen kwam in 2006 nog voor Bolton Wanderers uit en ging daarna op een lager niveau voetballen. Jansen stopte in 2014.

Jansen werd trainer van amateurclub Chorley in 2015. Hij nam er de taken van ex-ploeggenoot Garry Flitcroft over. In 2018 stapte Jansen zelf op bij Chorley.

What a strange play this turned out to be! After the first 15 minutes I was mentally composing my comment and wondering why the director had chosen to play such a melodrama so melodramatically. But then it turns out that the original play was rather more tongue-in-cheek and less stereotypical, than I first gave it credit for and that the director has by playing this up come up with a production which is funnier than I had any right to expect whilst still keeping the creaky narrative (the finale is positively like a Shakespearean comedy).
The staging was very good, although the manually-revolving arches which serve to depict the Underground, music-hall, country house and East End rookery were a little unstable and almost caused the cast some grief. Have to say the musical side of things was very well handled, some seriously good voices in the singing - not the least being mine when we joined in the lusty choruses of "Rule Britannia" at the curtain call.
If you hate melodrama avoid this. But if you can get past the genre this is actually a well put together and enjoyable performance which is good for a fair few (intentional) laughs.

Watching this the other evening, I found myself thinking 'This is brilliant'. Then a while later I was thinking 'How could I have thought otherwise, this is rubbish'. A little while later I was back to 'It's kind of brilliant in its way'.
What attracted me to this was the writer's name, Dion Boucicault, whose well-known London Assurance I'd seen and loved at the National Theatre London a few years ago. Long years before that I'd seen The Shaughraun with Stephen Rea and co chasing each other across the green hillocks of the Olivier stage turning as intended. Common denominator: laughter. After Dark prompts a bit of laughter and causes many more smiles. The writer intends the melodrama, the sense of the ridiculous, and director and cast pull it off in what is the play's 'First London performance for 120 years'.
The director's name attracted me as at the Finborough I had seen at least three things Phil Wilmott had previously directed: Arthur Miller's Incident at Vichy, Maxim Gorky's The Lower Depths, and John Galworthy's Loyalties. The dozen-strong cast play multiple roles in a farce that stays busy with effective scene changes, playing with space, and dialogue from mid-19th century London, with its chancers and criminals but also higher, moral aspirations. Here and there scenes include accordion, violins and singing that is delivered by at least two or three impressive voices amidst several others in chorus. Old reliable Boucicault could write for the stage all right, and these actors and singers give it plenty of welly. Of course there are romances, intrigue, misunderstandings and skullduggery, set in a London that has just had built its first few miles of passenger railway from Paddington to Farringdon and tunnels that enable a city underground as much as it was on the surface.

We don't get to see Dion Boucicault plays very often - the excellent NT revivals of The Shaughraun and London Assurance as mentioned above, and the 2014 Orange Tree revival of The School for Scheming are the only others I've seen (I did not see the recent The Octoroon which was based on his play). It is a pity as they are both interesting and entertaining. Interesting because melodrama was by far the most popular genre of the Victorian stage but it is out of fashion now, except in a modified form on TV and in film. In this case it is more like a knowing comic take on the more basic melodramas which were common at the time. A good production here by Phil Willmott (not normally my favourite director) and OK acting make for an entertaining 2hrs.
The play ranges between the tunnels of the recently opened Metropolitan Line, a music hall, and a Dickensian rookery on the banks of the Thames - I kept thinking how great it would be if, like for The Shaughraun, the NT gave it a massive production in the Olivier. No hope of that of course with the puritan humour-free regime in charge there.
Smell it. Touch it. Kiss it. Kiss it! It's the mother lode...

A wife of Kitwe has testified before the Buchi Local Court how her husband allegedly sent his girlfriend to their matrimonial home to beat her up. Clara Kasonge told the court that the rough encounter she had with her husband's girlfriend has actually left her limping. Kasonge was testifying in a case in which her husband, Gibson Mbola, sued her for divorce on grounds that she issues death threats at him.
The two got married in 2010 and have two children together. Kasonge told the court that they got married after Mbola impregnated her and that her nine years of marriage have been full of misery. She accused her husband of having extra-marital affairs and taking his girlfriends home.
Kasonge said her husband's girlfriend once went to her house to tell her that her husband was no longer in love with her and that he was planning to marry her (girlfriend).
"My husband connived with his girlfriend to come to our house to beat me up. I cannot even walk normally now because the beatings I received from his girlfriend," she said. Kasonge also narrated that her husband has no respect for her and that he tells her to her face that he does not have any feelings for her.
And Mbola told the court that his wife moves around aimlessly and he has to wait for her when he knocks off from work. He also complained to the court that his wife likes issuing death threats at him and that she also threatens to commit suicide if he tries to leave her. Mbola asked the court to divorce them because he was not willing to remain in a marriage full of death threats.
And Buchi senior local court magistrate Elita Bwalya granted the couple divorce and ordered Mbola to compensate his wife with K7,000 in instalments.

Commentary OpinionSTATE OF MIND
The psychology of Trump
Exclusive: Gina Loudon examines America's burning questions about the Donald
By Gina Loudon
Published September 13, 2015 at 3:36pm
Most of the media are ignoring the main factor at play in the phenomenon of Trump. No consultant can polish him. No analyst can predict him. Politics alone cannot explain his resonance with voters, or his ridiculously high polling numbers among women, Hispanics, blacks and other nontraditional Republican voters. Still, almost no one seems to want to talk about the psychology of the matter.
The psychological components at play quickly make sense to any casual observer, and may even lend themselves to predictions about this political phenom going forward. I coined the term "policology" as the nexus of psychology and politics, and wrote about it in my first book, "Ladies and Gentlemen: Why the Survival of Our Republic Depends on the Revival of Honor," co-authored by Dr. Dathan Paterno.
Dr. Drew and I spoke about the Trump phenomenon twice this week, and I am glad that he is on the forefront of asking the questions burning in the American soul right now about Trump.
The psychology breaks down in three ways:
1) What is Trump's own psychological profile?
2) What has happened/changed in the mind of the American voter that has facilitated the unusual candidacy of Trump?
3) What will happen going forward?
As a wise student knows, you can't find answers or make predictions until you ask the right questions. The above questions are easily answered when you look at the five questions the American people are asking about Trump.
Order Gina Loudon's book "Ladies and Gentlemen: Why the Survival of Our Republic Depends on the Revival of Honor" – how atheism, liberalism and radical feminism have harmed the nation.
1) What is Trump's true motive?
Jindal, desperate for headlines due to his ever-dwindling polling numbers, called Trump narcissistic and egomaniacal. Both are likely true. Trump is ambitious, narcissistic, driven and egocentric – all great attributes for a true leader, as long as their ultimate ideal is outside self. Some have compared Trump's patriotism to Hitler's, and warned of ominous danger. The key difference isn't mental composition, but rather mental health.
Personality analysts frequently point to specific formulae that lead to extreme success, as well as extreme madness. Many test in that category on psychological inventories, as I did, in the first year of my first master's degree at St. Louis University. My liberal professors were gleeful to inform me that I had the same personality profile as Hitler, Pol Pot, Mussolini, etc. They neglected to tell me that it is the same profile as Beethoven, Einstein, President George Washington, Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher. I was devastated until I researched this particular personality profile, and then I realized that it can either be used for extraordinary good or extraordinary evil. I decided to go for the former.
The important distinction here is that those who lead through strength to achieve evil are deranged. Hitler was sociopathological. Trump seems mentally sound. Though mental assessment is impossible without true clinical testing and diagnosis (and is even then, very elusive), I haven't observed, nor have I heard of any other mental health professionals observing that Trump is in any way unstable.
Were great leaders like Ronald Reagan, Teddy Roosevelt and Margaret Thatcher just as narcissistic and driven as Trump? Likely yes. Were they better at hiding it? Certainly. Decorum was different then. And that was before political correctness had become the major enemy of the American people. Trump intuitively saw the frustration of Main Street over the tyranny and oppression of political correctness, and he capitalized on it, masterfully.
2) Why is the electorate so tolerant of Trump's obvious flaws?
As I have repeated at every opportunity this week, "When you don't pretend to be the perfect, polished, packaged politician, no one expects you to be."
I think this is the reason Trump gets away with saying things that no candidate has ever said before. He, therefore, buffers candidates like Sen. Ted Cruz. Trump takes the hits for the heretofore "unspeakable truths," while other conservatives in the race have the luxury of looking composed, deliberative, presidential.
Trump has made three commitments to the American people, causing voters to look past his flaws:
1) Destroy the stronghold of the establishment politicians and media
2) Find what works and do it, come hell, high water or political correctness
3) Loyalty matters. It looks like this: If you are loyal to him, he is loyal to you. In the mind of the American voter, that could translate as, "If you are loyal to America, America will be loyal to you. And you want that."
3) Can a flawed, loose-lipped, reality TV star bomb thrower like Trump actually function as president?
Trump has become infamous for political "gaffes" that many were certain would sink him. After all, far smaller gaffes have sunk candidates for decades. Why do his supporters seem to ignore his shortcomings, celebrate them even, while the rest of the world stands in shock? His supporters don't mind because of two basic psychological truths that everyone is ignoring.
The first is that everyone is an armchair president. Everyone who pays attention to politics believes they could do a better job. They realize they are flawed, that they misspeak, that they speak out in anger, and suddenly there is a candidate with whom they can relate. Trump's supporters, if you watch their comments from a psychological perspective alone, not only agree with him, they identify with him. When Megyn Kelly attacks Trump, they aren't watching it happen, they are experiencing it. This is different and could not have happened without the next psychological truth that many ignore.
Everyone has also been an underdog. When the media attack, Trump supporters experience the attacks on a very personal level. Even self-identified "progressives" like Dr. Drew can relate to biased attacks, and therefore are perhaps more curious about a Trump candidacy than they would be for someone who hasn't been so attacked, like Dr. Ben Carson or Bobby Jindal. The media and initial GOP attacks effectively handed Trump the one thing he couldn't self-manufacture: the sympathy effect.
Many knock Trump's reality TV experience, but I think they are again missing the psychological component in play. Americans aren't fascinated by the entertainment aspect of reality TV as much as they have become obsessed with reality itself. In an ever more plastic world, people long for raw reality. Even though reality TV is manufactured in most cases (as I well know after I did ABC's "Wife Swap" reality show), that doesn't change that Americans are fascinated with it because they are searching for raw and real. Trump is both, however flawed.
4) Why do those who attack him evaporate like mist?
Most Americans feel like they haven't been heard. As every psychologist knows, when you get a person in therapy who feels like they haven't been heard, and you merely mirror their statements to let them know you hear them, they open up like an erupting volcano!
There are many people watching Trump who do not yet support him but who still feel they have had no voice in the political arena; therefore, they appreciate his narrative and feel like he is speaking for them. When someone attacks Trump, in their mind, that person is attacking their own voice. They then draw closer to the source that is perceived to be "in their corner," and that is how Trump has continued to sweep up support.
5) Why has someone who says divisive things produced such unity among nontraditional and minority voters?
Ironically, I believe that is for the same reason that those who attack him dissipate (above). For too long, people have felt voiceless because those who say they speak for them, really don't. I wrote an entire book for this reason. My co-authors, Ann-Marie Murrell and Morgan Brittany and I were so sick and tired of being "represented" by rabid feminists and groups like the National Organization for Women that we lashed back with our own narrative about what really matters to women in our best-selling book, "What Women Really Want."
As Rick Warren said, "Our culture has accepted two huge lies. The first is that if you disagree with someone's lifestyle, you must fear or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don't have to compromise convictions to be compassionate."
Black people are tired of being told they only get to be represented by the likes of race-baiters like Al Sharpton. They are business leaders, family leaders and much more than their skin color.
Women are tired of being told that their vote can be sold for $10 per month in free birth control, or an organization that sells baby parts and preys on women in their most vulnerable time. Women feel they are much more than their gender.
Despite desperate media attempts to paint Hispanics as single-issue voters (amnesty), more than 35 percent of Hispanics vote Republican, and those numbers are increasing. Those most hurt by illegal immigration are legal immigrants, so many of them are die-hard GOP voters, hoping that Republicans will quell the influx of those who cut in line and come here to commit crime, in some cases.
All Americans are tired of division, and Main Street voters recognize that just because I am pro-life and you are pro-choice, we don't have to hate each other. Or just because I am pro-traditional marriage, and you are pro-gay marriage, that doesn't mean we can't be friends and work together for a better America based upon areas in which we do agree.
The bottom line is that blacks, women and Hispanics are people first. They want it to be known that they are more than their race, more than their body parts and more than their origin. They are screaming for individual recognition in an increasingly progressive tribal culture. Trump unites those groups on that psychological basis, while political analysts scratch their heads.
Trump has eviscerated the predictions of those who have traditionally been good at guessing the rise and fall of presidential candidates. I am going to take a stab anyway. My prediction is this: As long as he is loyal to the three principles he has made clear in his run thus far, his supporters will be loyal to him, and he can win. If he does win, or he is part of a winning team, the world could see a return of Reagan's "Shining City on a Hill." It has been a rough road back to America's rugged exceptionalism, but it could come back. And that could be huge.

Serve on a bed of greens or as a sandwich.
Cut tempeh in half lengthwise then flip on the side and cut in half widthwise. Place in a single layer on a plate or glass dish. Combine remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Spread half of the marinade over the sliced tempeh, flip and spread the remaining marinade on the other side. Set aside while preparing the fried peppers and onions.
Preheat a skillet with a lid over medium heat while preparing onions and peppers. Pour olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan and add the peppers and onions to the preheated pan. Cover and sauté for 3 minutes. Stir, add the garlic, salt and pepper, cover and sauté 10 minutes stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile preheat a large skillet over medium heat for the tempeh. Lightly oil the skillet with extra virgin olive oil, place the tempeh in the preheated and oiled pan in a single layer and cook until just beginning to brown, flip and cook until beginning to brown on the other side.
Serve tempeh with fried peppers and onions scooped over top on a sandwich (Xav had a slice of swiss cheese on his too) with a salad or cole slaw on the side OR over a bed of greens for a lighter vegan and gluten free meal.
CELIAC Note that Lightlife soy tempeh contains no gluten but is not celiac certified. I believe this is because the 3-grain tempeh contains barley. If you are gluten sensitive, like I am, this is fine but true celiac should contact the company for further information.

Ratatouille can be served as a side dish (traditional) or over pasta as a meal. I served it over quinoa (gluten free) with fried tempeh making it into a hearty meal. Mozzarella is a nice option for vegetarians but not necessary for a satisfying meal.
Heat a large wide bottom cook pot over medium heat. Add olive oil, onion and salt, stir and cover. Stir occasionally until onions are tender and transparent, about 3 minutes. Add pepper, stir, cover and sauté another minute. Add remaining ingredients except basil and simmer with lid on stirring occasionally so the eggplant and zucchini begin to soften and break up. *this is a good time to start the fried tempeh* Simmer for 10 minutes or until the eggplant and zucchini are tender. Add the basil, stir and continue to simmer an additional 5 minutes.

I made this dish, inspired by ingredients used in Indian dishes, for a pot luck party. Pasta salad has been done so many times so this fusion meal was my solution to making a light summer dish that is both vegan and gluten free. Before heading out into the garden I prepared all of the elements then mixed it all together when I came inside to get ready to go. The spoonful Xav and I sampled passed inspection. I hope you enjoy!
Drain and rinse beans that have soaked over night, place in a medium sized pot, add 4 cups water, bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer till the beans are soft (1 1/2 – 2 hours), drain and rinse.
Drain and rinse rice that has soaked over night, place in a small pot, add 3/4 cup water, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer till the water has all been absorbed (about 20 minutes).
Meanwhile, mix together ingredients for marinate in a small glass or ceramic bowl; garlic, cumin, coriander, salt, pepper, vinegar and olive oil. Set aside.
Prepare vegetables, place in a bowl, cover and store in refrigerator.

Blair Dead in the Water?

Blair dead in the water? No such luck
I am all in favour of optimism, but this is ridiculous. There are people at Westminster, people I respect, people who have seen governments rise and fall, who now think that Tony Blair's political life is moving to its close.
If Cherie hasn't measured up the curtains for Dunspinnin, she had better get going, they say. It's all over for Blair, said a political commentator to me the other day. He's not just toast. He's crumbs. He's not just history. He's biology. He's physics.
Look, people keep saying to me, at the way he governs the country. He tells the entire Labour Party that he is not going to have a referendum on the European constitution, not over his dead body. No fewer than 319 Labour MPs are gestapoed through the lobbies to vote against such a consultation; and then Blair comes back from staring at the stars in Bermuda, and announces the most amazing U-turn since Emerson Fittipaldi skidded on an oil-slick at the Monaco hairpin.
He persuades his poor lobotomised backbenchers to support invasion of a Third World country on the ground that said country possesses WMD, capable of being fired at us within 45 minutes, and expects them to remain loyal to him when it turns out that (a) Saddam Hussein boasted no WMD more fearful than a tub of superannuated taramasalata, and (b) the CIA had expressly warned the British Government that the 45-minute claim was a load of old cobblers.
He presides over a total disintegration of the immigration and asylum system, and then makes a panicky speech, at the last minute, in which he seems belatedly to embrace Tory ideas about restricting access to benefits for those who are not really in fear of persecution. After seven years of massively expanding the public sector with form-fillers, clipboard-toters and quota-checkers, he holds an emergency summit to work out why 60 per cent of the population do not think public services have improved. Doh!
He's lost the plot, people tell me. He's drifting rudderless in the wide Sargasso Sea of New Labour's ideological vacuum. According to no less an authority than Peter Oborne, political editor of The Spectator, the Prime Minister has been squinting at the calendar and wondering exactly when, this summer, he might suddenly disappear – poof – and reinvent himself as helmsman of, say, the European Commission.
Well, my friends, I am all for looking on the bright side of life. I have bet on the Grand National. I have put money into chocolate vending machines in Underground stations, even though this is a wholly academic exercise. Such is my congenital optimism that, the other day, I chained my bicycle to the railings outside one of our great stations, in the fond belief that, when I returned, it would still be there.
Of course I lost both wheels, but that act of credulity is nothing compared to the collective optimistic mania that is sweeping some sections of the Tory media. You're wrong, folks! Put away the obits. Get rid of the bunting.
Blair will not go this summer, and no, he will not go before the next general election. Here are at least three reasons. The first is that it is not in the nature of politicians to surrender their own political lives; they are like wasps in jam jars. They buzz on long after hope has gone. They go on because it is in their nature to do so, because all political careers must end in tears, and it is profoundly in the public interest that they should do, in the sense that politicians will work hardest and best if they know that their only exit is to be terminated in the Darwinian struggle for popular affection and interest.
He will not go because there are scores of his backbenchers who know that they were not propelled to Westminster because their electorates fell in love with their own blue eyes. They know that Tony won their seats, because he offered Middle England a kind of Tory Lite party that seemed economically sensible without some of the nastiness that they had come to associate with my great party.
They also know that they have absolutely no practical way of disposing of Blair, because a leadership election would necessitate the votes of 80 MPs, a quarter of the parliamentary party, and there are not enough of them with the guts to trigger it.
And the third reason why Blair will stay and fight is of course that there is no one to take his place. He is New Labour, for better or worse. Straw? Pshaw. Blunkett? Junk it. As for Gordon Brown, and the idea that the baton could be smoothly passed to the Chancellor – cheated of his birthright for a mess of seared tuna at Granita – it is fanciful. Even if it were possible, technically, to effect such a transition, it would be an insult to democracy, not least because Brown, like so many other Labour members, sits for a Scottish seat, and is currently passing laws for England when English MPs have no say over those questions in Scotland, and above all when he, Gordon, has no say over those questions in Scotland. I would go so far as to say that the West Lothian question is now so acute that no sitting Scottish MP has a hope of becoming prime minister.
It is Blair, Blair and Blair alone who personifies New Labour, the gigantic neo-SDP envisaged by Roy Jenkins. That is why there is not the earthliest prospect of him going; and that is why he will soldier on, with his troops becoming ever more despairing. His strategy was triangulation: to push the Tories out to the Right, and to destroy Old Labour. He has ended up falling between two stools. His party has fallen out of love with him, and many are already mentally in opposition (so why not give them the extra satisfaction of formal opposition as well?); but they will keep him as their leader, and he will not go.
If I'm wrong, as I have pledged before, I will eat my hat. Joyfully.

Watch What Happens When a Polar Bear Plays With a Dog
This unlikely story of bear-meets-dog appears to have ended on playful terms.
Watch an Unlikely Encounter Between a Sled Dog and a Polar Bear
Two wildlife photographers waited anxiously from a distance to see the result of a close encounter between a dog and a polar bear.
By Elaina Zachos
When veterinary nurse Brittany Semeniuk went to Manitoba, Canada, in November, she and her vet partner were looking to photograph polar bears. They visited a place called Mile 5 Sanctuary, outside the town of Churchill.
There Semniuk saw a chained-up sled dog—and a massive polar bear was approaching it.
"I had no idea what was going to happen," Semeniuk says. "I was worried for the dog."
But then, the bear started playing with the dog. It began nudging the canine with its nose and poking it with its paws; the dog even appeared to be in on the bear's playful game.
This seemingly benign behavior continued for about 15 minutes. After that, the bear walked away to mosey around looking for food, leaving the dog unscathed.
"When the bear left, the dog seemed to be totally fine," Semeniuk says. "[The interaction] was a bit rough because a polar bear doesn't know his own strength."
CAN(NINE) WE BE FRIENDS?
Churchill has been called "the polar bear capital of the world," because in the fall before the ice on the Hudson Bay freezes, the bears often come through the town searching for food. Locals can see dozens of the animals meander through the area, rummaging through garbage in search of food. The bears are often not afraid of humans.
Interactions with polar bears don't always end the way it did in the above video, especially when the animals are hungry. In November 2016, another video showing a polar bear apparently petting a chained-up sled dog at the same location went viral. Soon after, a Canadian news outlet reported that three polar bears had been removed from the location after killing and eating other dogs.
Dog owner Brian Ladoon has been accused of feeding the polar bears, according to a comment a Manitoba conservation officers' spokesperson made to the Canadian Broadcasting Company. Ladoon told the CBC that the 2016 attack occurred on "the only day we didn't feed the f--king bears, the only night we didn't put anything out."
Ladoon is a controversial figure in Churchill, where he runs Mile 5 Dog Sanctuary and charges tourists to come see and photograph the polar bears. (Semeniuk says she did not pay for access.) National Geographic tried reaching out to Ladoon for comment but has not heard back.
"Brian overfeeds his dogs in that one area, which inadvertently lures in the bears or as some people would call it—baiting," says National Geographic Society program officer Sandra Elvin, who used to guide polar bear expeditions in Manitoba and is familiar with Ladoon's operation. "Being intelligent and amazing, polar bears have learned to associate dogs with extra food, and have realized that without dogs, there is no food. Thus, the bears do not kill the dogs."
She likens it to how orcas have been known to toss seals around before deciding whether to return them to land or eat them.
POWERFUL PLAYERS
As strong predators with no natural enemies, polar bears can be fearsome. They're the world's largest land carnivore and can charge at nearly 25 miles per hour. They can weigh anywhere from 900 to 1,600 pounds, can measure up to eight feet tall, and have sharp 2-inch claws paired with 42 teeth. The bears normally prey on seals, but they're also opportunistic scavengers that have been known to consume whale carcasses and other flesh.
"I've seen the polar bears before but I've never seen the bears interacting with the dogs in that way," Semeniuk says.
In addition to being incredibly dangerous, bears have a "curiosity quotient" and ask questions with their teeth and paws, Polar Bears International scientist Tom Smith told the Washington Post in reference to the 2016 video. It's possible that when the bear approached the dog this time around, the canine became submissive and the bear saw that as an opportunity for a playmate.
"This interaction was fascinating to see, but it's also incredibly dangerous for these dogs," Semeniuk says. "They have no choice but to interact with the bear."
Update, February 2, 2018: This story has been updated with additional information about the controversy surrounding the dog's owner.

This Teen Tried To Get Perfect Eyebrows And Ended Up With A Nightmare On Her Face
When the pursuit of Cara Delevingne brows goes bad.
This is Polly Smith, a 19-year-old performing arts student from High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, U.K. A few weeks ago Polly went to her local beauty salon to get what's called an HD brow treatment, which is supposed to give you fuller, more beautiful brows.
Swns.com / SWNS.com
Instead, she ended up like this.

A day after the procedure, she says she could barely open her eyes. Doctors said she had a severe allergic reaction to the dye used in the HD brow treatment.
Part of the treatment involves hair dye being applied to the brows for 10 minutes. Polly said she completed an allergy patch test two days prior to the treatment, and had no indication there'd be a problem.
She ended up on a cocktail of antibiotics, antihistamines, and steroids.
Smith said her eyebrows have begun falling out now. "I had the treatment to get nice pretty eyebrows and now they are patchier than ever," she told the Daily Mail.
Adorn Beauty, where she got the treatment, told BuzzFeed Life they offered her a full refund and gave her an additional £20 to cover the cost of antibiotics.
Praash Mangupiya, the owner of Adorn, spoke with the suppliers of HD Brows and believes that the reaction may have been caused by a hormonal change. "We gave her the skin test and everything was fine with the skin test," he told BuzzFeed Life.
Smith, who hopes to be a professional performer one day, is warning others to think twice before they do something that could scar them forever.
"Doctors have said I could be permanently scarred. Being a performer if my face is disfigured, it is going to impact me at auditions." she said. "I don't think it is worth the risk."


I've posted about this young man before and because he's just amazing to watch, I'm posting about him again. I saw these photos today on Tumblr and they inspired me to go and have a look at a couple of his performances on youtube once again. Eike Von Stuckenbrok tours with a show called "Soap" that I saw last year at the Sydney Opera House. He was part of an amazing cast but for me he was the standout of the night. The photos above were taken with the mannequin that Eike performs on in the video below. Yes, you read that correctly. He performs on a mannequin and he does it beautifully.


A few weeks ago I wrote a column on the impact the forecasted Super El Nino would have on our four-year drought. The column included an overview of California's water storage capability, which is inadequate under the best of circumstances.
Water for much of California is dependent on the state's 161 reservoirs. In an average year of precipitation each of these reservoirs are replenished during California's wet months (October through March). As of last May, the state's reservoirs had only received 6.5 million acre-feet of water from last winter. That is only 78% of the necessary annual recharge of 8.2 million acre-feet. For reference, a single acre-foot contains 325,000 gallons of water.
Our four-year drought has resulted in the state's reservoir levels as of last May to be at 17.2 million acre-feet. The typical annual withdrawal over the dry months (April through September) is around 8 million acre-feet. Therefore, if California has a fifth year of drought it will only have a little more than two years of water left in the reservoirs and for the first time in state history the reservoirs will have less than 10 million acre-feet of water storage.
Much of California's current water storage issues are a result of state leadership failure to follow-thru on a number of well-developed water solution/storage strategic plans that would have addressed and solved this issue.
This failure hit home with one reader, David Bolton of Brea, who forwarded information of California's ineptitude by bringing some interesting history to my attention. David was born before the start of WWII and witnessed California's population boom after WWII ended when many veterans, who either trained in California or came thru California on their way to the war in the Pacific, saw that the state was full of opportunity and was a great place to raise a family.
The significant population growth, combined with the state's cyclical droughts, severely strained the water resources, especially in the most populated areas of the state, the Bay Area and the greater Los Angeles area. In his e-mail David described one of the more innovative, ambitious and visionary water resource and economic plans that was designed and developed by John Reber, who was an actor, theatrical producer and a schoolteacher.
The Reber Plan, also referred to as the San Francisco Bay Project, would have constructed dam across the Sacramento River, creating multiple channels and two freshwater lakes. The dam would provide power and the two lakes, drinking water for the greater Bay Area and Northern California. With the Reber Plan in place, the federal Central Valley Project, would then create a system of canals, pumps and aqueducts up and down the San Joaquin Valley, providing enough freshwater for the agriculture growth occurring in the Central Valley.
In addition, to address the water needs of Southern California, then Governor Pat Brown endorsed and advocated the State Water Project, a plan that would create an extensive system of reservoirs, aqueducts, and pipelines powered by pump stations and electrical generating plants to transport the water where it was needed. This included the capture of Sacramento River runoff, which would add additional water resources for the lower Central Valley and provide the water needed by Southern California. The entire project was projected to be built over sixty years, at a cost of $13 billion (or $104 billion in 2015 dollars).
Political infighting began along and the need for study after study, especially those required by the U.S. Army Corps, whose study of the Reber Plan recommended even more studies. After more than a decade of such studies, the Reber Plan was scrapped in 1960. Though some parts of both the Central Valley Project and the State Water Project plans were funded and completed, neither provided the comprehensive water solutions and storage that California required.
Unfortunately, despite the long history of droughts in California, state leaders have chosen to rely on Mother Nature to replenish and recharge our inadequate number or reservoirs, and deliver a sufficient snow pack to provide for the state's annual water needs.
That kind of reliance is unacceptable. California voters should demand that our next Governor and State legislators develop a comprehensive strategic water storage plan, which can be sufficiently funded and implemented.
The proposed plans of the past, like the Reber Plan, can offer some guidance about the visionary thinking necessary to meet the water storage needs of this state, but it will also require utilizing the most innovative water treatment technologies available today.
California's water needs vary greatly depending on location, latitude, elevation, and proximity to the coast. Our strategic water solution will need to take into account these variables so we can handle whatever Mother Nature decides to throw at us.


Glycoside hydrolases of family 26 are primarily of endo-β-1,4-mannanases, although a recent exo-acting β-mannanase has been described . The family also contains enzymes that display β-1,3:1,4-glucanase  and β-1,3-xylanase activities . As a historical note, GH26 was one of the first glycoside hydrolase families classified by sequence analysis, and was previously known as "Cellulase Family I (eye)" prior to detailed enzymological characterization .
Family GH26 enzymes utlize a retaining mechanism, as shown by NMR and follow a classical Koshland double-displacement mechanism. Pre-steady state kinetics using activated substrates revealed the two phases of the reaction; the rapid initial glycosylation step (only with good leaving groups) followed by the slower deglycosylation. It should be noted that the use of substrates with a good leaving group result in a very low apparent KM, particularly with the acid-base mutant. This does not reflect tight affinity but simply that the glycosylation step (k2) is much quicker than the deglycosylation step (k3) .
The catalytic residues were first identified in the endo-β-1,4-mannanase CjMan26A. The general acid/base residue is the glutamate Glu320, which is separated in sequence by ~100 residues from the catalytic nucleophile, Glu212. The catalytic nucleophile was identified by site-directed mutagenesis in harness with the kinetics of 2,4-dintrophenyl-β-mannobioside hydrolysis which, although very slow was associated with a dramatic decrease in KM . The identity of the catalytic nucleophile was also revealed through site-directed mutagenesis  and its function was visualized by X-ray crystallography in the acid-base mutant of which the glycosyl enzyme intermediate bound to 2-deoxy-2-fluoromannose was formed . In Clan GHA, of which GH26 is a member, the residue immediately preceding the general acid/base residue in sequence is an asparagine that makes pivotal interactions with the 2-hydroxyl of the substrate. In GH26 the equivalent amino acid is a histidine, His211 in CjMan26A, although its function is conserved; it also makes important interactions with the 2-hydroxyl of the substrate .
Three-dimensional structures are available for a large number of Family GH26 enzymes, the first solved being that of the Cellvibrio japonicus (previously called various names in the genus Pseudomonas) mannanase CjMan26A . As members of Clan GHA they have a classical (α/β)8 TIM barrel fold with the two key active site glutamic acids located at the C-terminal ends of β-strands 4 (acid/base) and 7 (nucleophile). The crystal structure of two C. japonicus mannanases in complex with activated substrates with the acid base mutant , or substrates that are very slowly hydrolyzed in the wild type enzyme , show that catalysis by this class of enzyme proceeds via a Boat2,5 (B2,5) transition state, whereas the GH26 β-1,3:1,4-glucanase transition state adopts a half-chair 4H3 conformation . The chemical rationale for the different transition states adopted by β-mannanases and glucanases is discussed by Davies and colleagues in these publications and elsewhere . The crystal structures have also revealed the mechanism of substrate recognition in subsites distal to -1 [10, 11].
Cellvibrio japonicus CjMan26A by NMR .
Cellvibrio japonicus CjMan26A initially by mutagenesis and sequence conservation  and later by X-ray crystallography .
Cellvibrio japonicus CjMan26A initially be mutagenesis, sequence conservation and kinetics mutant against activated substrate .

In the Pipeline: 8/13/12
Let's review. More expensive cars ($3200 more expensive on average). More deadly accidents (as many as 240 additional deaths every year). No environmental benefit. A corrupt federal government using its substantial leverage to keep private companies in line. But other than that, this is a really good rule. American Products. American Power. (8/10/12) reports: "The Committee on Oversight's report found that the administration "places ideology over science and politics over process" and that these extreme fuel economy mandates have "serious consequences for consumers in the choice, cost, and safety of vehicles." One example of this is a report from the National Automobile Dealers Association which found that these regulations will increase the price of cars so much that 7 million drivers will no longer be able to afford to drive."
Preach on, Brother Beauprez. Denver Post (8/12/12) reports: "As state and federal lawmakers debate the country's energy policies and Colorado's role in the ever-expanding energy economy, let's hope they remember that unnecessary regulations stifle growth while doing nothing for public safety or health. They would also be wise to listen to voter dissatisfaction regarding overly-burdensome regulations."
Hard to disagree with any of this. So we won't. Junk Science (8/10/12) reports: "The slow global take-up of EVs has been mirrored in Australia, with only 18 sold privately this year and 45 sold to government and business… While many blame high prices Mitsubishi i-MiEV retails at $48,800, Nissan Leaf at $51,500 and Holden Volt at $59,990 Australian industry figures point to a lack of government subsidies."
If the carbon tax in Australia did not exist, we would have to invent it just to make people like Greg Mankiw, Arthur Brooks, Kevin Hassett, Bob Inglis, and the remainder of the surrender monkeys look even more ridiculous than they already do. Sydney Morning Herald (8/10/12) reports: "Liberal state health ministers have banded together to attack the carbon tax, which they say will add millions of dollars a year to their health care bill."
How do you think the President's crew would respond if we suggested that they should allow oil and gas exploration on military bases? Wouldn't more of those resources improve national security? Environmental News Service (8/8/12) reports: "The Obama Administration is moving quickly to harness solar, wind, geothermal and biomass energy resources on or near military bases across the United States and on public lands."
"'I was a climate negotiator, and no one had this in mind,' said David Doniger of the Natural Resources Defense Council." Except, obviously, for the Chinese and Indian businessmen, who are clearly smarter than environmentalists in the United States and Europe. Seriously, read the entire article and see if you can get through it without laughing. But also remember that guys like Doniger really think they are smarter than the rest of us. NYTimes (8/8/12) reports: "They quickly figured out that they could earn one carbon credit by eliminating one ton of carbon dioxide, but could earn more than 11,000 credits by simply destroying a ton of an obscure waste gas normally released in the manufacturing of a widely used coolant gas. That is because that byproduct has a huge global warming effect. The credits could be sold on international markets, earning tens of millions of dollars a year."
Smuckers should have responded that they planned to start producing HCFC-22. Business Wire (8/7/12) reports: "In recognition of Smucker's [NYSE: SJM] positive first steps to respond to climate-related risks, Trillium Asset Management, LLC (Trillium) and Calvert Investment Management, Inc. (Calvert) announced today that they have formally withdrawn a shareholder proposal which called on the company to disclose climate-related risks to the Folgers™ Coffee and other brands. These brands currently represent over 40 percent of Smucker's overall revenues and a significant portion of the company's recent growth."

2010 Olympics Figure Skating
Canadian figure skater Joannie Rochette's mother died Sunday morning
Tuesday, Rochette performed short program of the women's competition
She said through a spokesman that "Words cannot describe" her emotions
She's in third place going into Thursday night's free skate
Vancouver, British Columbia (CNN) - As 14, 000 lumps formed in 14, 000 throats, Joannie Rochette took to the ice Tuesday night, just two days after her mother's shocking death.
She skated almost flawlessly, earning the third best score of the night in the Winter Olympics women's figure skating short program. But the score really wasn't the most important thing to most people at Pacific Coliseum.
"I watched her as she was about to skate and it looked like she was struggling emotionally, " said Bill Thompson, chief executive officer of Skate Canada. "She just pulled herself together and put down a performance that I think - where she came in is irrelevant - was so magical and so heroic."
Rochette did not talk to the media after her skate, instead answering a few questions in private.
"I have no regrets, " she said, according to Michael Slipchuk, the high performance director for Team Canada and a former Olympian. "It was a nice warm welcome [from the crowd]. It was hard to handle, but I appreciate the support."
Asked how she is feeling emotionally, she said, "Words cannot describe."

On Tuesday night, the strain showed on Joannie Rochette's face as she came out on the ice. Her eyes showed the heavy weight of her heartache. But her performance - which earned her best short program score of the season - was nearly impeccable. As she began to skate, the crowd seemed to hold its collective breath as she went for her first elements, a triple Lutz followed by a double toe loop. She did not stumble.
And then the crowd was into it, at times clapping along with her music, and at times screaming when she nailed another jump.
At the end, Rochette's tears could not be held back and she bent over at the waist. She looked up at the crowd, clutching her chest with her right hand. Then she skated over to her coach, Manon Perron, and enveloped her with a weepy hug.
Thompson said Therese Rochette would have thought it was a "dream performance."
She's on a very difficult emotional roller coaster. That's not going to end tonight. This was helpful.
-Bill Thompson, Skate Canada
In January, Therese Rochette conducted an e-mail interview with The Christian Science Monitor. She told the magazine that her daughter was someone who often didn't need a lot of support but would call her when she needed a friendly voice.
"I always encouraged her to have confidence in herself, to believe in her dreams, to consider the progress that she has accomplished over many years. But in periods of great stress, I also have the necessary distance to remind her of a rule she knows well: above all, skate for herself, for her pleasure, " she wrote.
Slipchuk said Joannie Rochette was surrounded at the Games by a good support crew, including her father, Normand. Officials have been giving her distance, trying not to be intrusive, he said.
And the support from around the world has helped too, Thompson said. He said it was wonderful to see how many people have sent e-mails, cards and letters from all over the world.
The free program is Thursday night, so Joannie Rochette's journey is not complete.
"Let's be honest, she's on a very difficult emotional roller coaster. That's not going to end tonight. This was helpful, " Thompson said.
"If she skates this well again, she's done much more than anyone of us could have hoped for."
Part of complete coverage on
With the Winter Games set to close Sunday night, you can almost hear the Canadian officials saying, "We told you everything would work out."
Even before competition began, the Games faced criticism over weather and a fatal crash. The accidents, mistakes and embarrassments kept coming.

McCain slams Trump's debt deal: 'This was not an exercise in bipartisanship'
by Rebecca Savransky - 09/10/17 10:15 AM ET
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) on Sunday criticized the deal President Trump struck with Democrats to fund the government and raise the debt ceiling.
"This was not an exercise in bipartisanship," McCain said on CNN's "State of the Union."
"The Republican leaders, [Speaker Paul] Ryan [R-Wis.] and [Senate Majority Leader Mitch] McConnell [R-Ky.], were surprised to hear that he had cut this deal with 'Chuck and Nancy.' "
{mosads}McCain said the proposal Trump accepted last week with Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) had just been categorically rejected by the Speaker of the House.
"That's not the way we need to do business," he said.
He added that the agreement made is "basically devastating to national defense."
McCain said his first obligation, as chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, is to make sure "the men and women who are serving in our military have everything they need."
"Under this agreement, they not only don't have everything they need, their lives are in greater danger," he said. "We can't do that to them."
President Trump on Friday signed a spending package that would provide disaster aid to victims of Hurricane Harvey, while raising the debt ceiling and funding the government for three months.
The package was the result of a deal Trump made this week with Democratic leaders in Congress. Republicans had been seeking to raise the debt limit past the 2018 elections, or at least for the next six months.
The deal, which passed the House earlier Friday, contains more than $15 billion in disaster recovery aid for communities in Texas and Louisiana affected by Harvey

∞ As part of the second edition of the 'Women in Motion' programme, and on the occasion of the 'Presidential Dinner' held on Sunday 15 May 2016, Kering and the Festival de Cannes will honour Tunisian director Leyla Bouzid, Syrian director Gaya Jiji, Iranian writer and director Ida Panahandeh, up-and-coming talents in the film industry.
Chosen by the Academy Award winner American actor Geena Davis and the Academy Award and BAFTA Award winner American actor Susan Sarandon, all three directors will receive financial support for an ongoing film project.
As recipients of the 2016 'Women in Motion' Award, Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon were offered to choose women filmmakers among a shortlist of talents identified throughout 2015 to be awarded the 2016 young talents 'Women in Motion' award.
On May 15th, during Cannes 'Presidential Dinner', hosted by Pierre Lescure, Thierry Frémaux and François-Henri Pinault, two 'Women in Motion' Awards will be presented to Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon for their outstanding contribution to the film industry and women's cause, and three young talent 'Women in Motion' Awards will be presented to directors Leyla Bouzid, Gaya Jiji and Ida Panahandeh.
In 2015, the 'Women in Motion' Awards were given to actress, producer and committed philanthropist Jane Fonda and to independent producer, Megan Ellison to celebrate her promising and remarkable career.
The dinner will be presented by the renowned French chef, Anne-Sophie Pic, the only 3-starred woman in France, known for her seek for complex flavour combinations and powerful tastes.
Leyla Bouzid grew up in Tunis, where she was born in 1984. She moved to Paris in 2003 to study French literature at La Sorbonne and then joined the renown La Fémis Film School, in the Directing specialty. She directed SOUBRESAUTS, her film project for La Fémis in Tunis, a few months before the revolution. She then chose to shoot ZAKARIA in the south of France with amateur comedians. Both shorts were acclaimed at film festivals.
In 2015, she directed A PEINE J'OUVRE LES YEUX, her first feature film. Shot in Tunis, the film received two Awards at the Venice Film Festival, Venice Days section. Since then, the film has received over 20 awards in film festivals around the globle: Toronto, Dubai, Pusan, Rotterdam, Carthage, Namur, Tribeca, San Francisco… In theaters, A PEINE J'OUVRE LES YEUX was very well received by the critics and audience alike.
Gaya Jiji is a Syrian filmmaker. Born in Damas in 1979, Jiji lives and works in Paris. She holds a Masters Degree in Cinema from the Saint-Denis, Paris 8 University. Gaya Jiji has directed three shorts. The most recent one, MATIN, MIDI, SOIR…ET MATIN (19', 2011), has been nominated at numerous film festivals worldwide such as the Short Shorts Film Festival & Asia, in Tokyo, the Doha Tribeca Film Festival or the Arabic Film Festival in Rotterdam. Since 2012, Gaya Jiji has been working on the scenario of her first feature film, MON TISSU PREFERE. The project was part of La Fabrique des Cinémas du Monde at the 2014 Festival de Cannes, Dubai Film Connexion, at Dubai Film Festival in 2015, Meetings on the Bridge, at Istanbul Film Festival in 2016. It is also part of the 69th Festival de Cannes "Atelier Cinéfondation". MON TISSU PREFERE has received support from the Amiens Film Festival Development Program in 2013 and more recently from the CNC's Aide aux cinemas du monde, in July 2015.
Ida Panahandeh is an Iranian film director. In 1999, she wrote and directed her first short film THE TRAIN STATION. In 2004, she wrote and directed TAXONOMY, screened at the 9th Tehran International Short Film Festival in National Competition. In 2005, she won the prize of the Best Short Film in 10th Tehran International Short Film Festival for THOSE HANDS, also screened at Vienna Independent Shorts. In 2009, she participated in Berlinale Talent Campus. In 2012, she wrote and directed THE LOST HONOR OF MR. SADEGHI (TV Movie), and won Best Film script (with Arsalan Amiri) from the First Tehran Video Film Festival. In 2015, Panahandeh wrote and directed NAHID, and won five prizes among Prize of the Promising Future at Cannes Film Festival (Un Certain Regard).

You speak to my heart! The computer is one of the only places where I ever actually try to keep things organized.
As for my categories, I've ended up with a lot of things that don't seem to belong in just one. I have a hard time keeping all of my bookmarks straight. I've got a lot of folders now, but my Miscellaneous section is huge. As for the ones that seemed to fit a couple of different places, I actually just started putting them in both. So a particular page may be filed under Artistic Tutorials and Jewelry Supplies if it deals with both. A lot of my friends pages are under Personal and Service Dog-Related.
I still bang my head a lot trying to figure out where I could have put something, but for the most part, things seem to make some sense to me. Heaven help me if I ever have to explain to someone else how to navigate my system, but it mostly works.
