>Heritage Breeds. Are They Worth It?
Posted byevelynscrackers	 March 2, 2011 July 6, 2011 1 Comment on >Heritage Breeds. Are They Worth It?
Last Spring we bought some Buff Orpingtons, a heritage breed of chicken, to be raised by our farmer friend. By choosing from a list of endangered foods our search for tasty local chicken would soon be over. We ran into a few challenges along the way that made us question if our little adventure was worth it.
I received a phone call from our soon-to-be surrogate family farmer. The chicks were do to arrive at the airport (This particular breed, found on the Slow Food Arc of Taste had to be flown in from Alberta.) and I was asked if I could pick them up? It just so happened I was picking up my mother-in-law at the airport at the same time the birds were expected to arrive. So, Evelyn and I jumped into the car and off we went.
Arriving on time, we hurried to get Grammy. "Great to see you!" "Where are your bags?" "We have to pick up some chicks!" She took the news in stride knowing quite well of our efforts with local food and farmers. In fact, she grew up on a farm in South Carolina and tells great stories of grudgingly gathering eggs and her failed attempt to wring a neck. With more experiences on a farm than one can imagine, we were in very good company if things got out of hand.
Living in an apartment, our bath tub was where we did the unveiling. Two dozen golden puff balls with tiny legs and black eyes were climbing onto each another, scratching and pecking. Luckily, I found a heat lamp at a local hardware store along with some chick-feed. We put in some fresh newspaper into the box and gave them tiny cups of water. The cheeping was non-stop, beautiful and life affirming. They became louder each time we checked on them, which was often. What a wonderful responsibility to have one afternoon.
A few months later we visited the chicks on the farm. The birds were much larger now and had beautiful copper-colored plumage. Once inside the pen we tried to get closer. Right away, they ran to the other side from where we stood as quick as a breeze through tall grass.
Now, Evelyn is a bit of pigeon chaser. I was trying to photograph the chicken experience and she was in full pigeon mode chasing them from one side of the pen to the other. Watching her running in circles, laughing hysterically and getting out of breath was priceless. I know where the expression "scared as a chicken" comes from as they did everything short of jumping over the fence to get away.
Come September, the inaugural chicken was cooked slowly in a cast-iron pan on a bed of potatoes, carrots and onions. After an hour and half, or so, it was removed from the pan and allowed to cool. The kale, which we relish this time of year, was added with garlic and cooked in the juices.
The chicken had a lean earthy flavor, quite pleasant, but a little tough. I didn't mind the chewiness at first. If we had a guest to dinner would they be as tolerant? Probably not, since it was getting to the point of almost making your jaw tired. Not a lot of breast meat and not a lot on the legs either, but we ate well nonetheless.
This chicken dinner had been planned for months and I felt a kinship to the chicken and to the farmer who raised them. Just as many people during the turn of the last century grew their own food and were self-reliant. They ate for survival and not so much for comfort. I don't think we are that far away that we can't think about our food in the same vein, now and again.
We are poaching the whole birds, now and are making wonderful stews and soups. We eat more meals with one chicken by slow cooking them in a broth that makes the meat quite tender and the clean earthy flavors are hard to come by with most store bought birds. Overall, it has been a very rewarding experience and something for us to look forward to, not only during the summer, but all year round. So great to be closer to the source of our food and participate in the process.
Mmmm, what shall we try next?

Michael Jackson estate slams 'Leaving Neverland' documentary Emmy win
The Dan Reed film looks into abuse allegations made against the singer
'Leaving Neverland'
Michael Jackson's estate has hit out after Leaving Neverland, the documentary that looks into abuse allegations made against the late pop star, won a Creative Arts Emmy Award.
READ MORE: "It's one-sided and biased" – Taj Jackson attempts to defend his uncle, Michael Jackson, against the 'Leaving Neverland' fallout
The 71st Emmy Awards kicked off over the weekend with night one of the two-night Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony taking place at the Microsoft Theater in downtown Los Angeles.
Leaving Neverland took home a Creative Arts Emmy for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special.
But in a statement released to Entertainment Tonight, the Jackson estate said: "For a film that is a complete fiction to be honoured in a nonfiction Emmy category is a complete farce.
"Not one shred of proof supports this completely one-sided, so-called documentary which was made in secrecy and for which not one person outside of the two subjects and their families were interviewed."
The two-part film directed by Dan Reed, which divided viewers upon its UK airing earlier this year, focuses on testimony by Wade Robson, 36, and James Safechuck, 41, who both claim that Jackson sexually abused them when they were children. In the wake of the film being shown, Jackson's songs were subsequently banned on numerous radio stations around the world.
Jackson denied any wrongdoing before his death in 2009.
Leaving Neverland was also nominated for Outstanding Directing for a Documentary/Nonfiction Program, Outstanding Picture Editing for a Nonfiction Program, Outstanding Sound Editing for a Nonfiction Program (Single or Multi- Camera), and Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Nonfiction Program (Single or Multi-Camera).
Meanwhile, HBO has called for Michael Jackson's $100 million lawsuit against Leaving Neverland to be dismissed.
Ahead of the film's premiere in March, Jackson's estate sued the HBO network while protesting the late star's innocence.
The plaintiff alleges that Leaving Neverland constitutes a breach of a non-disparagement clause in an agreement that is 27 years old. It's said that the deal provided the network with rights to air a Michael Jackson live show around the time of his 1991 album, 'Dangerous'.

Farmer's Pantry creates new category with Meal Snack line
By Monica Watrous
Farmer's Pantry Flame Grilled Chicken Meal Snack features chicken, carrots, peas and slow-roasted corn.
NEW YORK — It's a meal. It's a snack. It's Meal Snack, and it's the latest line to launch from the Farmer's Pantry brand.
Combining slow-cooked beef, chicken or turkey with crunchy vegetables in a double-pouched bag, Farmer's Pantry Meal Snacks were developed as a hearty alternative to jerky or trail mix. Varieties include herb roasted turkey with vegetables, cranberries and stuffing; flame-grilled chicken with slow-roasted corn, and garden harvest chicken with vegetables.
Jeremy Cage, co-founder and president of parent company United Snacks of America
"The meat snack category has gone through the roof… but when you sit down for a meal, you don't typically sit down and have just a piece of meat on its own, and you don't typically sit down and eat meat with peanuts or chocolate," said Jeremy Cage, co-founder and president of parent company United Snacks of America, in an interview with Food Business News. "You usually eat it with vegetables. That was the inspiration for Meal Snacks."
The product line taps into several consumer trends, said Mr. Cage, a former executive at PepsiCo who launched Farmer's Pantry last year with co-founders Josh Chaitovsky and Jeff Moskowitz.
"Consumers are increasingly gravitating to foods that are wholesome, authentic and identifiable," Mr. Cage said. "With Farmer's Pantry, one of the key things is we're using the kind of authentic and identifiable ingredients you would find in a farmer's pantry.
The Garden Harvest Chicken Meal Snack contains chicken, croutons, corn, carrots, peas and tomato.
"Americans are also looking for more products that are made in America, so we are only sourcing our ingredients from U.S. farms. That's an important part of who we are. Somewhat related to that is that Americans are searching for and rewarding brands that are doing good and giving back, so we are supporting five different charities that are aimed at helping American farms survive and thrive."
At the root of the Farmer's Pantry Meal Snack concept is what Mr. Cage called "the snackification of meals or the mealification of snacks." Consumers are busier than ever, and the traditional three-meal-a-day ideal is eroding.
"Consumers as a consequence of that are looking for more substantial snacks," he said. "And that's really what Farmer's Pantry is all about. It's all about more substantial snacking."
The Herb Roasted Turkey variety consists of turkey, croutons, corn, carrots, peas and cranberries.
The first product line to emerge from the Farmer's Pantry pipeline is Cornbread Crisps, a range of baked snacks in original, jalapeño and honey butter flavors.
"We are the only company that is taking cornbread, which is a key American staple, and turned it into a crisp, which is quite a bit more substantial than a traditional potato chip," Mr. Cage said.
Both product lines are available nationally. Meal Snacks are sold exclusively in Hudson News stores with plans to expand to additional retailers beginning next year.
Farmer's Pantry Cornbread Crisps are a range of baked snacks in original, jalapeño and honey butter flavors.
Meal Snacks were developed in less than a year, but the product had its challenges along the way, Mr. Cage said.
"You've got the meat, which you want to keep moist, and you've got the vegetables, which you want to keep nice and crunchy, and then you've got a technical challenge of moisture migration," Mr. Cage said. "The crunchy vegetables would absorb the moisture from the meat, so the meat would go harder and the vegetables would go softer, and that's obviously not a pleasant experience for the consumer. So, we've come up with an innovative bag that has a soft seal down the middle of the bag, so we can keep the meat moist and the vegetables nice and crunchy."
Perfecting the proprietary seasoning blend was another technical challenge.
Meal Snacks are packaged in bags with a soft seal down the middle to keep the meat moist and the vegetables crunchy.
"Now that we've cracked our proprietary seasoning and preparation and the packaging, we believe we're creating a new segment of the market, which is a segment called meal snacks, and we believe the possibilities are really endless in terms of recipe combinations and different proteins," Mr. Cage said. "I think there are multiple day parts and multiple occasions we can address. Right now we're obviously addressing from a day part standpoint early afternoon to dinnertime. So there are opportunities to go later, there are opportunities to go earlier, and then looking at different consumer need states, what are they looking for earlier in the day versus later in the day? We do feel very energized by the possibilities of where this can go."
Looking ahead, the company plans to continue building the Farmer's Pantry brand and distribution footprint. A key feature of future innovation is introducing new and novel concepts to the crowded snack category.
"If you're highly relevant but you're not distinctive, you're a commodity," Mr. Cage said. "If you're highly distinctive but not relevant, you're a fad. Our philosophy is we want to be both highly relevant and highly distinctive, which is going to give us the ability to be successful over time."

The Scarsdale Library's 2016 Festival of Writing by Judith Abelove Shemtob
The Scarsdale Library Writers Center marked its 2016 Festival of Writing on June 12. Sixteen authors read aloud their pieces to an audience of forty-five. I was one of them, a member of the Scarsdale Morning Scribes.
I sat in this same Wrexham House at Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville two months ago to hear my critique group leader read from her recently published novel The Last Dreamer. I wanted to show support and understand more about being published.
The only seats remaining were in the last row. My fingers touched the clip holding my story together. My husband joined me.
My name was listed seventh in the program. I knew some people but not others.
The reading began. Many authors thanked Jimin Han and Barbara Solomon Josselsohn, for leading the three writing groups at the library.
Listening wasn't easy at first. I removed the clip and counted again. Butterflies fluttered throughout my body.
Dawn Ciciola's characters in Spice Things Up looked forward to their twilight years while dealing with the past. Khris Tahmin's 2 Ladies compared the search for excitement and the need to belong. Lisa VanGundy's story of befriending a retired teacher warmed our hearts. In Then and Now Margo Baum reflected on growing up, moving away, and returning to Scarsdale. Jackie Friedman highlighted the value of music and dance that lifted spirits after JFK's death. Barbara Weinreb described making Beef Wellington that fell on the floor just before it was served to her husband.
My turn. I hadn't read aloud to an audience since retiring last June. I left the classroom without knowing what I would be doing. I was looking for what author Judith Summerfield calls my "Someplace."
In class, Barbara Josselsohn talked about craft and shared an article that inspired me to write This is 65, about how writing a retirement speech validated the talent within me to write. Another time she shared two readings with diverse points of view and suggested, "Talk about the moment during Hurricane Sandy when you knew this was going to be a big deal."
I looked at the audience as I shared Our Giant Tree, the tale of a struggling deciduous which my family loved. I paid attention to the pacing. It was thrilling to read in front of a large audience who felt the suspense, laughed at the humor, followed the details, and felt the satisfying sending. I knew it. I saw eyes, felt listening, and heard applause. I left the reading stand and took my seat. My husband nodded his head with pride and mouthed the word, "Excellent!"
I listened to the next writers: Karen Pickelle's witty poems included a fan that waves its face in a constant negative motion, never nodding yes, just oscillating no. Jennifer Manocherian presented two versions of the night that she was conceived, the imagined and the probable. Fran Scheffler-Siegel read excerpts from her Caregiving book including conversations with her late husband from opposite sides of the bathroom door. Janice Peran's wish to attend her high school and college reunions made us all consider future gatherings.
The talk of groups, writing and revising, family obligations, and questions about pieces at intermission reminded me of our group where I was encouraged to read online writing sites, sign up for interesting courses, learn about self-publishing, discuss books, and meet new people.
The readings continued:
Lynn Beville shared her view of race discrimination after seeing slave quarters in the South. In The Cat and the Rabbit Linda Shapiro wrote about feelings of helplessness in response to world violence. Ann Foley shared a six-year old Dublin girl's first encounter with nature in Lily. Linda Ellenbogen questioned her birthdate and linked it to events like Nazi Germany's rise. Richard Fitzhugh's memoire about selling a collection of memorabilia may have inspired male members of the audience to consider writing.
Hardly a novice to writing, I had an M.Ed in Reading and Language from Boston University, taught reading and writing to children in Scarsdale, and worked with Kathleen Tolan, Senior Deputy Director of the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project. I joined the library group after agents and publishers rejected my manuscripts for children's picture books despite the fact that my friends and their children and grandchildren enjoyed the stories. It appealed to me that Writing Center was ongoing. Many readers at the fourth festival had participated in prior years.
Barbara encouraged us to write reviews on Amazon and Good Reads and use Facebook to communicate between meetings. Marlena Baraf and I exchanged articles on picture books and sources for her blog.
My mentor gave online help as well. When I emailed her two stories, she used incredible talent as an editor to get me to dig deeper into the text and asking probing questions line by line.
I continued to revise my picture books and began assembling the help of trusted friends to read my stories and comment. I started meeting with another writer to offer prompts, write for thirty minutes, share our writing, and then talk. It's the new "going for coffee." Library Director Elizabeth Bermel said, "…fostering creativity and expression for local writers is intrinsic to our mission."
And this article? Barbara asked if anyone would be interested in an opportunity to write a bylined article about the festival for writer and author Preeti Singh. After three minutes of deliberation I emailed back, "I'm interested." The timing was right. Exactly one year to the day after I retired I received the opportunity to be published.
My writing journey has started full throttle. The Scarsdale Library Writing Center's helped me find my "Someplace." Grateful.

Great article. It was so meaningful to me as I missed the reading so I feel you helped me catch up. Nicely done in short space of so many authors.
Great article. helpful to me since I missed the readings. Thanks for the article.
Wonderful article, Judy! Congratulations!!
Shari Rosenzweig-Lipsky
Beautifully written! Your anxiety (about reading) and later, your relief (at being successful) was palpable. Congratulations all around.
Congratulations on finding your new "someplace" and on getting published! I would have enjoyed hearing more about your own very personal experiences vis a vis the festival of writing.
I was present at this reading, although I did not know Judy at the time. I attended as a member of the Sarah Lawtence Writing Institute community of writers. Judy, your piece was indeed excellent, and memorable.

Harder and harder to identify the Dutch stations... even after checking with the other logs on Internet. Do they really expect not being heard and localized by the AT if they don't identify on the air ?

In Collaboration with Indian Railway Google is Focusing on Providing Free Wi-Fi Across 400 Major Junctions
The most ambitious and motivated project, Google Fiber providing high speed internet connectivity across USA will now be expanded in the cities of India, a report confirmed recently. Indian Railway in conjunction with Google has decided to offer free high-speed internet connectivity though Wi-Fi hotspots in more than 400 railways junctions across the nation. The collaboration to provide high-speed internet connectivity across railway stations is baptized as "Project Nilgiri" which focuses on providing lightning fast internet connectivity to all the passengers of Indian Railway who are travelling across the convoluted network of Indian railway.
According to a report, Google is looking forward for an ambitious plan for India and is highly dedicated in setting up countrywide internet connectivity through Wi-Fi hotspots in major stations of Indian Railway which will provide the passengers high-speed internet at no cost. The report state that, under phase 1 of the project, Google will set-up Wi-Fi hotspots at over 400 major junctions spanning across India with a deadline of 4 months. Once the connection is developed, it will provide free internet connectivity to all the passengers travelling in Indian Railway after a mobile number verification. A one-time password will be sent to the user via SMS which they need to need to access internet connectivity for free through Wi-Fi hotspots.
The speed of the connectivity for the first 30 minutes will be quite higher and thereafter speed will reduced but commuters can still continue using internet connectivity for free. The phase two of the project is to provide Wi-Fi connectivity to the passengers of running train.
Google is now on the process of testing the services of Google Fiber in India after the successful response in USA. Once the project is done with Indian Railway, passengers can expect high speed broadband services while commuting through Indian railway. There will be a serious competition in Indian market indeed after the full-fledge services of Google Fiber, but ultimately the customers will get the benefits.
Google is working in collaboration with Railtel to complete this ambitious project. Railtel is the PSU having Pan India Optic Fiber Network running across the tracks of Indian railway in urban and rural regions. Today, Indian Railway is successfully offering free Wi-Fi connectivity to passengers of selected routes in trains like Rajdhani Express with the use of satellite communication technology.

From a stone abode to the only house on the island: Are these the world's strangest properties?
FROM a house perched on the top of a pillar of rock, to a mirrored cube suspended in the middle of a forest, there are some seriously odd properties out there.
Here we round up some of the strangest properties on the planet – would you live in any of these?
This charming house is perched on top of a rock pillar, and is home to a 59-year-old monk who has lived in his lonely abode for 20 years.
The house is situated above a Georgian monastery, but nipping out for a bottle of milk is no laughing matter when you live in a house like this.
Maxime Qavtaradze, who lives in the unique property, has to spend 20 minutes climbing down a 131ft ladder if he wants to get down to ground level.
He normally only ventures down twice a week to pray, so relies on his followers winching up supplies to him whenever he needs something.
The Casa do Penedo, or 'House of Stone', is a building fit for the Flintstones.
Located near a mountain range, the Portuguese property comes with bulletproof doors and windows, and a swimming pool.
And its inhabitants must have lived the high life, since the stony abode is perched on a mountain at 2,600ft.
The house was once a family's holiday home, but has since been converted into a small museum, where it attracts scores of tourists.
This strange property is an original holiday hideaway which is hidden from view by its mirrored walls.
The suspended cube is tucked away amongst the trees of a Swedish forest, with the reflections of the cube's surroundings making the mirrored room almost invisible to onlookers.
Only accessible via a rope bridge, the cube features a single room with a queen size bed, and is one of the attractions at the nearby Tree Hotel.
A sneaky architect built this technically illegal property on public land, but its dubious planning permission status doesn't make this one-bedroom house any less amazing.
The egg-shaped property is nestled in the forest on the slopes of Canada's Whistler Mountain, where it overlooks a row of multi-million dollar homes.
It was built by computer technician Joel Allen, who spent thousands of pounds and many years secretly building this unique property.
This pokey property makes a real splash – as it's been balanced on a rock in the middle of Serbia's Drina River for 45 years.
It's survived floods and high winds to become a much-loved tourist attraction, with a charming story to accompany it.
The idea for the unique build came in 1968 from a group of swimmers, who used to rest on the rock when they were tired of swimming.
The following year, one of the swimmers built the one-bedroom property to rest in, using a kayak to transport the materials to the remote rock.
This awesome abode is situated at the foot of the Aus Mountains in Namibia, and consists of a collection of rock houses.
This Icelandic island has one lonely property on it, with Elidaey Island surely coming in as the world's easiest place to be an estate agent.
The lonely island was once inhabited by five families, but now it is only visited by hunters who use the solitary cabin as a base to poach puffins.

Friendship is marvelous especially when it comes to immigrant women in New York City that can share the same believes, passion and the most buttoned up stories of struggle. The picture supposed to show that this is what it feels like to be an immigrant woman—every day. The characters are funny, relatable and fascinating. The film concept is compelling, exciting and fun.


Exclusive UK cloud minnow DataCentred went under after HMRC – its largest customer – pulled the plug on a services contract in favour of a deal with Amazon, the corporation recently accused by MPs of tax avoidance.
Manchester-based DataCentred signed an agreement with the UK tax authority two years ago via the G-Cloud framework: its OpenStack infrastructure ran a significant critical system within the tax department, a contract that underpinned 85 per cent of DataCentred's annual revenue.
However, The Register can reveal that six months ago the company was informed the tax collector would no longer use its services as it had revamped policy from being cloud agnostic to becoming an AWS fanboi.
DataCentred is not the only small UK cloud provider to have lost business with HMRC following the policy shift. We are aware of at least two others, although DataCentred appears to be the first direct casualty.
The business was started by TeleCity founder Dr Mike Kelly with £9m funding from venture capitalist John Moulton and local authorities. The firm turned over £1.2m in 2016, but was plunged into the red after losing the HMRC contract and subsequently went into administration in August.
Reg readers will no doubt debate the inherent weaknesses of being overly reliant on one customer, but also the irony of HMRC paying for the services of AWS, a firm sometimes criticised for its tax efficiency.
Since Amazon and Microsoft set up local cloud operations in the UK several years ago - renting rack space from other providers in the case of AWS - some senior figures in Gov.uk appear to have ditched their SME rhetoric, deciding they do like working with tech giants afterall.
While there may be compelling reasons for that decision, the question is also raised as to whether Whitehall is swapping one set of large IT suppliers – famously described as the "oligopoly" by former Cabinet Office minister Francis Maude – for another.
Such a move also appears to make the IaaS part of G-Cloud redundant, which was set up to provide small cloud providers in the UK with a level playing field to compete for shorter-term government contracts.
The Register asked HMRC how its decision aligned with the government's pledge to award contracts to SMEs; whether the department risked creating a new supplier lock-in by doing so; and if the department could be perceived to be rewarding bad corporate behaviour, as Amazon has repeatedly come under fire by avoiding tax.
An HMRC spokesperson said: "We have been in discussions about our longer-term plans for cloud provision and what's in the best interests of our customers.
"Hyperscale cloud technology is newly available in the UK and the larger cloud capability offers more resilient services at a significantly lower cost to the taxpayer."
The department said it makes decisions on its suppliers through a fair and open process, and in line with Civil Service rules. Normal financial and tax compliance checks will be undertaken as part of this.
The European Commission recently ordered Amazon to repay €250m (£222m) for benefiting from illegal and unfair state aid courtesy of Luxembourg.
The Amazon group denied it received any special treatment and that it paid tax in full in accordance with both Luxembourg and international tax law.
The business, run by Jeff Bezos, also previously said it pays all taxes required in the UK and every country it operates in.

Is it adventure, adrenalin, intense bonding experiences...or just the romance of being in the Alps together?
Over the last few years we have seen more and more newly weds choosing to honeymoon with Undiscovered Mountains. It seems the traditional romantic retreat to an exotic beach doesn't quite cut it for everyone!
We've had Brendan and Orla ice climbing, snowshoeing and building igloos, Jane and Douglas and Philippe and Maryanna summiting the famous Undiscovered Mountains 'Love Mountain', Les Rouies 3589m - famous as it is where Bernard and I (Undiscovered Mountains head guide and director) fell in love!
We have had Chris and Rowena testing out their head for heights on the advanced via ferrata, horse riding and white water rafting and next week, Phil and Catherine will be paragliding, mountain biking, tree climbing and horse riding!
Love is all about sharing experiences and happy moments together and creating memories that will bond you for life. Maybe having an adventure together is a sure way to enhance your already heightened emotions!
Imagine the sensation of sitting on top of the mountain with your loved one in a state of slight altitude high with pheromones pumping and spectacular views spread out in front of you, or the romance of riding off together into unchartered alpine territory on horseback.
It is true that when you push yourself to your physical limit, experience that surge of adrenalin as you overcome your fear of heights, laugh hysterically as you bounce down white water rapids.... you are discovering and sharing raw, intimate emotions. All the material you need for an intense bonding experience and life long memories to share together!
Or is it the possibility of a romantic spa with a glass of champagne, a relaxing massage and gourmet french cuisine that is all the more appreciated after a day in the mountains, that attracts our newly weds??
Where did you go for your honeymoon? What makes the perfect honeymoon? We'd love to have your thoughts!
Thank you! I think the night in the refuge is also firmly imprinted in my memory bank!!

God's Own Cryptosystem
Ted Blackman
No matter what Elon Musk says about it, I don't subscribe to Simulation hypothesis, the idea that we're living in a Matrix of sorts. The recent Spectre/Meltdown computer security vulnerability got me thinking, though. If the universe doesn't want us to escape it, it needs to protect its secrets. From this perspective, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle looks like an attempt by our simulators to prevent timing attacks against the universe. God may not play dice with the universe, as Einstein said, but one would assume He does use proper security practices.
Let's start by examining the computer version of this, and then we'll look at the analogous physical phenomena.
Timing attacks have been on the mind recently in computing. It turns out that the privacy of many of our processors can be violated with shocking ease using techniques called Spectre and Meltdown. Without going into excruciating detail — get off me, pedantic security nerds — the basic idea is that if you can create a timer, you can measure how long it takes the processor to perform a task. Once you can measure processor timings, you can time it looking up lots of different pieces of data and see which ones go faster than others. If a piece of data can be retrieved much more quickly than the others, it means the data required for that task was already sitting around in the processor cache, so the processor didn't have to go fetch it from RAM, which takes a few thousand times longer.
If you can figure out what's in the processor cache, you can infer data the operating system is using, which is supposed to be privileged so that user code (e.g. a website running in your browser, sending your personal information back to the Russian mob) doesn't have access to it. This vulnerability is so pervasive and severe that some experts have said it invalidates the past two decades of processor design, along with a whole field called LangSec, or language security. Part of what makes this attack so pernicious is that as soon as you can create a sufficiently granular timer, you can replicate the attack.
Security researchers don't like to make bold claims about the fortitude of their systems for fear of invoking the wrath of Poseidon, so they don't say they can prevent Spectre/Meltdown, only that they can "mitigate" its danger. One primary mitigation technique is to add randomness to the timers available to unprivileged code. When the code asks the system what time it is, the system generates a random number and adds that to the reported time to keep the program in the dark. Google Chrome, for example, has fuzzed their timers to bring their resolution down about a factor of a thousand, from sub-nanosecond to half a microsecond.
One interesting aspect of this mitigation technique is that fuzzing the explicit timers isn't enough. There are a bunch of other pieces of programs that can be used to MacGyver a timer out of other building blocks, such as chunks of memory shared by multiple concurrently executing processes. Since browsers routinely execute untrusted code — remember, a website is someone else's program running on your computer — they have to protect against any jerry-rigged timer.
This brings us to the physics. Many laypeople are at least somewhat familiar with one formulation of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle: namely, that one can never know both the position and momentum of a particle simultaneously. This, however, is only one special case of the principle. The more general statement is that for any two conjugate variables (I'll describe those shortly), if you multiply the uncertainty in one variable by the uncertainty in the other variable, you'll always get a number greater than a constant called ħ, the reduced version of Planck's constant. Position and momentum form a pair of conjugate variables, so that means the uncertainty in position times the uncertainty in momentum never goes down to zero.
Conjugate variables, basically, are any pair of variables such that if you knew both of them exactly, you could use that to predict the future perfectly. For position and momentum, if you know both where something is right now and how fast it's going, you can foretell its position at some future time. Angle and angular momentum form a pair of conjugate variables, and there are other pairs relating to electromagnetism, gravity, and fluid dynamics.
One lesser-known pair of conjugate variables is energy and time. This is a bit more complex than position and momentum because you can't really measure time in an absolute way — get off me, pedantic physics-nerds — but one analogy for thinking about this is to think about musical notes. A similar uncertainty principle holds there: you can never exactly know both the frequency (the pitch) of a note and its location in time. It's really just a poorly defined question: a bass note at 20Hz will take 1/50th of a second in order to undergo a full cycle. The longer someone holds the note, the more exactly you can state its frequency, but its "location in time" spans from the time you hit the note until the time it stops, so a longer note has more uncertainty in time.
By preventing us from knowing the exact time-span of an event, physics protects its hidden future against timing attacks. If we were able to time events and know their energy simultaneously — or to know position and momentum simultaneously, or any other pair of conjugate variables — we'd be able to predict the future. No matter what pair of variables we look at that we could use to predict the future, Heisenberg Uncertainty kicks in and mitigates our attempt by reducing the accuracy of our measurement.
Heisenberg Uncertainty prevents us from performing a timing attack against the universe. It also doesn't just prevent direct timing attacks, but it also prevents us from knowing any pair of variables that would allow us to fully understand what's going on, just as browsers have to prevent the construction of do-it-yourself timers using other means.
Why does physics behave this way? One reason could be that it doesn't want us to know everything. After all, when humanity failed to prevent accurate access to time measurement, or other variables that could be converted into a time measurement, millions of computers became vulnerable. Maybe the universe limits our information so we can't learn its secrets.
Let's just hope our simulators aren't upset that we figured this out. I don't want to run afoul of the cosmic antivirus.

After the WEIRDing
Who Nudges the Nudgers?
By S.C. Gruget


This world is constantly plagued by shortages. Have you ever noticed that?
It seems everybody is always running short of something. You never hear anyone say, "Oh my, I have more time than I need…I have more money than I can use…I have so many solutions, I'm having to hunt problems just to keep up!" Such words sound ridiculous in a world ruled by scarcity and lack. Yet, the truth is, those are the kinds of words you and I should be saying all the time.
After all, as born-again children of God, we don't belong to this pitiful world. We're in it, Jesus said, but we're not of it (John 17:15-16). We belong to the kingdom of God—and there are no shortages in that kingdom. It has an abundant supply of any resource you could ever need. Many believers never tap into those resources because they think God's kingdom is just a religious concept, a theological theory. But it's not.
It's real—and we can live in it.
True. That's why Christians who depend on this world aren't doing very well these days. They're limiting themselves to the world's technology, abilities and answers, and they're getting the world's results.
In other words, they're looking to the outside instead of looking on the inside.
As a believer, everything you will ever need and everything God has ever promised is on the inside of you right now. The extra $500 a month you need for your family is in there. The new car you need is in there. The healing you need, the answers you need, the miracles you need—all of them are right there in your heart. How can I be so sure? Because God Himself lives in you. He came to dwell there the moment you were born again—and He is the source of all things.
His Spirit is a wellspring of life, bubbling up continually within you. And unlike the wells of the world, this one never runs dry! Jesus Himself assured us of that in John 4, where He said, "Whosoever drinketh of this [natural world's] water shall thirst again: But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life" (verses 13-14).
Just think about that! Through the supernatural spring of His Spirit, God is continually imparting to us strength and power, guidance and counseling. He is providing us with a reservoir that will keep us fully supplied, not according to the meager resources of this earth, but according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19). All we have to do is step into the Holy Spirit's flow and we'll have everything we need.
The problem is, most people (Christians included) don't know anything about that divine flow. So they just paddle around in the natural stream of things trying to keep their heads above water as the circumstances and shortages of the world drag them under.
But it's time for us to get wise! It's time to stop going with the flow of the natural, worldly things around us, and to start going with the flow of the Spirit instead.
How do we partake of the blessings of God?

SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) is a very versatile tool, allowing report users to export reports in many standard render formats, including Excel, PDF, CSV, and many others. However, there are many reasons why a user may need to export a report in a non-standard format. For example, a user may need to export data from an SSRS report in to a legacy application that requires a very specific format. While manual manipulation could likely get the report in to the required format, creating a custom SSRS format to export the report would be a more reliable long-term solution.
Though this solution was tested in an environment running SSRS for SQL Server 2008 R2 with SharePoint 2013, it is expected to work with SSRS for SQL Server 2012, SQL Server 2014, or SQL Server 2016, and may work with other versions of SharePoint.
Get a reference, in this case a GUID, to the Reporting Services Service Application using the Get-SPRSServiceApplication This command provides a listing of SharePoint Reporting Service Applications, and in typical cases will only return one item. Note the ID value that is returned; for example, the ID returned in the scenario was "aaa65303-374f-4857-900e-72c5a9b9436a".
Provide the render format by creating XML that describes the format. More information on the format can be found here. Based on the business requirements, the business scenario outlined above was translated to the following XML.
The first XML block will be provided to our PowerShell command to satisfy the ServerDirectives argument, and the second XML block will satisfy the ExtensionConfiguration argument. Note that the field delimiter for a space in PowerShell is "`t". "`t" is the escape character for the tab key in PowerShell, whereas the tab delimiter in Native mode this would be " ".
New-SSRSExtension on the application server passing it the identity found in Step 1 and the XML built in Step 2.
Perform an iisreset on the application server to apply changes.
Now that the new export format has been configured, the following section will provide instruction for leveraging the new format within reports.
Server configurations outlined above allowed the first two business requirements to be met. However, the last requirements cannot be set by render formatting and must be achieved by report and query configuration. When SSRS exports to a .CSV format, any table formatting is lost, a design of the export format. With .CSV format, the text box labels are displayed in alternative of the standard header configured for the report. The text box labels will match the field label by default and can be changed, but these labels do not allow the space character. Because the business requirement stated that the column headers required spacing, an alternative approach is required.
As mentioned above, this approach first requires that the render format is configured to not display headers, configured by the render setting of NoHeader set to True. Instead, to display the headers in the format required for the business, a UNION query can be used.
Add an additional SELECT statement with all headers and any aliases desired. This will be the first row of the query, and will now display the column headers in the format desired.
UNION ALL this query to the original query. Note that it may be required to cast values in the original query as a different data type in order for the UNION to function correctly. For example, the scenario below requires casting Bit and Money fields using the STR() function to allow the column heading to display.
Add an additional field to both queries to use for sorting and ensure that the column heading row displays first. In this example, the field added was populated with "1" for the column heading section of the query and populated with "2" for the original section of the query, and then ordered by this field, aliased as Sort. Executing this query and exporting using the configured render format will meet requirement #3.
Adding an additional render format by executing PowerShell by modifying the SSRS Application Server.


As the world becomes a more global marketplace, it becomes increasingly important to understand the best way to ship your products. Shipping a boat is not as easy as one might think. You must be aware of the differences between domestic and international shipping, the dangers of shipping a boat on your own and the ways in which a professional can save you a significant amount of money.
Many people chose to purchase domestically. These boats are typically shipped on a trailer across the country over the road. It is important to know the shipping limitations of each state. Depending upon the size of your boat, you may need special permits to ship your boat through certain states and you may not be able to move your boat during certain times of the day or on holidays. You will also be required to have insurance and the proper documentation to ship your boat including a bill of lading.
International buyers are also becoming more commonplace. The international shipping practices can vary greatly from domestic shipping. While domestic shipping practices remain the same to transport the boat to port, the way you ship the boat from the port to another country will differ. You can ship the boat in a container, you can ship it on a flat rack or you can have the boat lifted on and off the ocean vessel. Do not forget that you will require special documentation to ship internationally including a commercial invoice.
If you choose to ship the boat yourself, you could be creating a dangerous situation for yourself and others on the road. You might be putting yourself at unnecessary risk for legal ramifications. If your boat damages the property of others during transit, you would be responsible. Also, you may incur numerous traffic violations if you are shipping the boat unlawfully through various states or if the trailer incurs damage or malfunction in transit. It is recommended to hire a professional boat shipper for all boat transports to minimize risk and to save money.
A professional boat shipper has detailed and expert knowledge of everything required to successfully and safely ship a boat both domestically and internationally. These professionals will be able to navigate a boat of any size through any state and to any country. You will not have to worry about shipping permits, roadside breakdowns or any other incidentals that could occur if you were transporting the shipment on your own. Also, they will have professional drivers who will be able to more easily, safely and efficiently move the boat across country.

I use Collider.ClosestPoint to constrain a small object from exiting the collider of a main object. Example - small object is a plate and a main object is a table. The user is able to drag the plate on top of the table and it works really good for rectangle tables where I have a BoxCollider. Collider.ClosestPoint always returns the closest point on the collider (table), and the user can't drag the plate out of the table surface. For oval tables where I am using a convex Mesh Collider the movement is not smooth. As I am dragging the plate on top of the table, it jumps often to the centre of the collider. It happens both when I am dragging the plate inside the table surface as well as when I try to drag it out of the table surface.

Here's a look at who might replace Boris Johnson as UK Prime Minister
By Eliza Mackintosh and Luke McGee, CNN
Updated 3:21 PM EDT, Mon July 11, 2022
Hear Boris Johnson's 6-minute resignation address
London CNN —
The race to replace British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is ramping up, with 11 candidates declaring their intention to run, many on platforms of lowering taxes and promises to clean up government following Johnson's crisis-plagued leadership.
Sir Graham Brady, chairman of the 1922 Committee of Conservative party backbenchers announced on Monday that a new leader would be announced on September 5, the same day that the British parliament returns from its summer recess. He also said that the candidate list would close on Monday, before a first round of voting on Wednesday. The list will then be whittled down to two, and the party's grassroot members will be given the final say.
Johnson announced on Thursday he would step down, after nearly 60 lawmakers and government officials resigned over his handling of a series of scandals, including illegal gatherings held at his Downing Street office in defiance of coronavirus lockdown rules and his failure to act on sexual misconduct allegations against his deputy chief whip.
Now, with the government in tatters, bookmakers and much of Britain are speculating about his likely successor. A slew of contenders have thrown their hat into the ring – from household names to lesser-known Conservative members of parliament.
Among those to announce their candidacy are an Iraqi Kurdish refugee, the children of Indian and Pakistani immigrants and several women – reflecting efforts by the Conservative Party to field more ethnically diverse candidates for Parliament in recent years.
Any candidates who run for the leadership will go through rounds of voting by Conservative lawmakers until only two remain – at which point Conservative Party members nationwide will vote. The winner will be the new party leader – and prime minister.
Here's a look at the possible contenders.

Britain's former Chancellor Rishi Sunak.

The former chancellor formally announced he was standing to succeed Johnson in a campaign video on Friday, which began with the story of his Indian parents, who both emigrated to the UK from East Africa. "It was Britain, our country, that gave them and millions like them the chance of a better future," he said. "I want to lead this country in the right direction."
Sunak was Johnson's presumed successor for several months after he won praise for overseeing Britain's initial financial response to the Covid-19 pandemic. But he has suffered several of his own scandals while in government.
His stock sank earlier this year after revelations that he broke Covid regulations to attend the prime minister's birthday party on June 19, 2020, for which he later apologized "unreservedly."
His financial and legal affairs came under scrutiny this spring following reports his wife had non-domicile status in the UK – meaning she was not liable to pay tax on overseas income – and that he held a US green card while serving as minister.
His popularity has also taken a beating in recent weeks as Britain has suffered the worst cost-of-living crisis in decades. Sunak has struggled to keep down spiraling inflation and has been criticized by opposition parties for what they call a slow and inadequate series of financial measures. Among the economic woes facing Britons after Sunak's time as the UK's chief financial minister: real wages dropping to their lowest levels in more than 21 years and inflation hitting a 40-year high of 9.1% in May.
But he is still among the bookmakers' odds-on favorites to take Johnson's job.

The former health secretary, whose resignation set off a wave of departures from Johnson's government, officially announced his candidacy on Sunday.
"Whether it's the cost of living or it's low levels of growth, for me, that's our most immediate challenge… You need someone with an economic plan from day one," he said, adding that his economic plan would have two prongs: short-term measures to help people meet cost-of-living challenges and a longer-term plan for tax reform.
Posting on Twitter on Sunday, Javid said: "The next Prime Minister needs integrity, experience, and a tax-cutting plan for economic growth. That's why I'm standing."
The statement echoed Javid's resignation speech in the House of Commons in which he said that something was "fundamentally wrong" with government.
Those who support Javid's candidacy hope that he will be credited for triggering Johnson's ultimate ouster, having been the first cabinet minister to resign – though Sunak followed him minutes later.
The MP has twice run for party leadership in the past – in 2016, after the Brexit referendum, and in 2019, when Johnson was ultimately elected. He served as chancellor from 2019 to 2020.
His family immigrated from Pakistan to the UK in the 1960s, and his father worked as a bus driver.
UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss.

The foreign secretary made her leadership ambitions known in The Telegraph on Sunday. At the heart of her leadership bid is a pledge to cut taxes "from day one," to tackle the cost-of-living crisis.
Liz Truss became the chief negotiator with the European Union on the UK's Brexit deal in December 2021 and has held multiple cabinet positions. Since voting Remain in 2016, she has since become one of the loudest Euroskeptic voices in the government, which many have chalked up to her desire for the top job.
She has a formidable and dedicated team around her – some of whom previously worked in Number 10 – which has been producing slick videos and photos of her looking thoroughly statesmanlike. She has apparently attempted to channel former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, wearing a headscarf while driving a tank, and her role in fronting the response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine has also heightened her public profile.
In her comment piece in The Telegraph, she highlighted her foreign policy expertise, writing: "As Foreign Secretary, I have helped to lead the international response to Putin's war in Ukraine and delivered a tough sanctions package that has led the world, by imposing real pain on Putin and the Kremlin."
Truss is popular among Conservative members, who would pick the eventual winner of a contest. But Johnson's downfall could simultaneously tarnish anyone in his cabinet, meaning Conservative voters could turn to a backbencher to take the mantle.
Penny Mordaunt

The trade minister, one of the bookmakers' favorites to replace Johnson, announced her bid for the leadership on Sunday. A poll of party members published July 4 by website Conservative Home put her as the second favorite choice, behind the current defense secretary Ben Wallace, who has ruled himself out of the race.
Penny Mordaunt first entered parliament in 2010 and later joined the cabinet under Theresa May, serving as international development and defense secretary.
After last month's confidence vote, Mordaunt declined to comment on whether she backed Johnson, raising eyebrows among Westminster observers when she said: "I didn't choose this prime minister."
Announcing her interest in the top job, she said the party "leadership needs to become a little less about the leader and a lot more about the ship."
Mordaunt, who in 2019 became the first woman to serve as defense minister, invoked Thatcher in her statement, saying the former Conservative leader "was remarkable for not just what she did but the speed she did it."
"She had a vision and a plan. So do I," she added.
Tom Tugendhat
Committee chairman Tom Tugendhat.

A former British military officer who chairs the Foreign Affairs Committee, Tom Tugendhat has been one of Johnson's most robust critics and has called for the Conservative Party to drop its focus on "divisive politics."
Launching his leadership bid on Thursday in The Telegraph newspaper, Tugendhat wrote: "I have served before – in the military, and now in Parliament. Now I hope to answer the call once again as prime minister. It's time for a clean start. It's time for renewal."
He outlined his vision for tackling the cost of living crisis, reducing taxes and investing in neglected regions of the UK.
Despite not having any cabinet or shadow cabinet experience, Tugendhat has impressed colleagues with his oratory skills and seriousness, most notably when he spoke about the fall of Afghanistan. He entered parliament in 2015 after serving in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
Some key centrist Conservatives have already been throwing their support behind the relative wildcard, but some worry that his experience is too focused on foreign affairs.
Britain's newly appointed Chancellor of the Exchequer Nadhim Zahawi.

Less than two days after he was appointed by Johnson to the role of chancellor, replacing Sunak, Nadhim Zahawi publicly called on the prime minister to resign and later launched his bid to replace him.
Until his promotion, Zahawi, who joined the cabinet less than a year ago, was considered an unlikely choice as the next leader of the Conservative Party. But his rise under Johnson has been rapid, making his mark with early success as vaccines minister amid the coronavirus pandemic and then as education secretary.
In his pitch for leadership, previewed in The Spectator magazine, he promised to lower taxes for individuals, families and business, boost defense spending, and continue with education reforms he started in his previous role.
Despite voting to leave the European Union in 2016, Zahawi is widely admired among the moderates in the party. Crucially, as one Conservative source put it, "he's not been in government long enough to have any obvious defects and, despite supporting Boris even after the confidence vote, is not too tainted by association."
Zahawi was born in Iraq to Kurdish parents and came to the UK as a child, when his family fled Saddam Hussein's regime. He is believed to be one of the richest politicians in the House of Commons, and helped found the polling company YouGov.
"If a young boy who came here aged 11 without a word of English, can serve at the highest levels of Her Majesty's Government and run to be the next Prime Minister, anything is possible," Zahawi is set to say in a speech Monday, an excerpt of which was published by The Spectator.
Conservative MP Jeremy Hunt.

A former health and foreign secretary, Jeremy Hunt lost the 2019 leadership vote to Johnson. He has since styled himself as an antidote to Johnson and is without question the highest profile contender on the moderate, ex-Remain side of the party.
Hunt announced his bid to become the next Conservative leader in an interview with British newspaper The Sunday Telegraph, pitching himself as "the only major candidate who has not served in Boris Johnson's government."
In a statement on Twitter ahead of the confidence vote in June, Hunt said: "Anyone who believes our country is stronger, fairer & more prosperous when led by Conservatives should reflect that the consequence of not changing will be to hand the country to others who do not share those values. Today's decision is change or lose. I will be voting for change."
Tellingly, Hunt's statement focused mainly on the Conservatives' chances of electoral success under Johnson, rather than his policies or the partygate scandal – a decision that could be read as a pitch to the Conservative MPs and members who would decide a leadership election. However, he comes with baggage, and sources from the opposition Labour Party have told CNN they are already writing attack lines.
"It can't be Jeremy. Labour can say he was running healthcare for six years and failed to prepare for a pandemic. They can say when he was culture secretary he chummed up to the Murdochs during the phone hacking scandal. He will get crushed," a senior Conservative source told CNN.
Grant Shapps

The transport secretary launched his bid for prime minister this weekend, describing himself as a "problem solver, with a proven record of delivery" in a post on Twitter.
Outlining his vision for the UK in an interview with The Sunday Times newspaper, Grant Shapps said that within his first 100 days in office he would produce an emergency budget to lower tax for "the most vulnerable" and give state support to firms with high levels of energy consumption.
"We have had two-and-a-half years of tactical government by an often distracted centre. This must end. We must be a strategic government, sober in its analysis, and not chasing the next headline," the paper quoted Shapps as saying.
The MP for Welwyn Hatfield was elected in 2005 and has held several ministerial posts. He is also a former co-chair of the Conservative party.
Kemi Badenoch

The former equalities minister launched her leadership bid in an op-ed published by the Times of London newspaper, saying she wants a "strong but limited government focused on the essentials."
Kemi Badenoch resigned from the government on Wednesday citing "issues" that had "come to light" and the way they had been handled.
"I'm putting myself forward in this leadership election because I want to tell the truth. It's the truth that will set us free," she wrote Saturday. Badenoch, who voted in favor of Brexit in 2016, added she would run on a "smart and nimble centre-right vision."

Last week, the attorney general called for Johnson to quit and said that she would join a leadership race to replace him, telling ITV "it would be the greatest honor."
Launching her bid a few days later, Suella Braverman wrote in The Daily Telegraph: "I saw Brexit as the most important political decision of my life. My views are not triangulated or calibrated. They are as much a part of me as my DNA. I now realise that I cannot rely on others to take Conservatism forward."
Braverman was elected as MP for Fareham in 2015.
Rehman Chishti

Among the biggest outsiders in the race, the newly appointed Foreign Office minister threw his hat into the ring on Sunday.
Born in Pakistan, Rehman Chishti moved to the UK at the age of six, learning English at school in Gillingham, Kent, the area of southeastern England that he has represented as an MP since 2010. He went on to become the first in his family to go to university and received his law degree.
"It's important to ensure that everyone who works hard, who's determined, who perseveres, that they have a government that is on their side," he said in a Facebook video announcing his candidacy, adding that he would ensure lower taxes and fresh ideas to improve people's lives.
CNN's Jorge Engels, Amy Cassidy, Cecelia Armstrong, Ivana Kottasová and Sugam Pokharel in London contributed to this report.

'I Love Lucy' and 'The Dick Van Dyke Show' make holiday returns again
Dec 6, 2018 Nov 29, 2018 Jay Bobbin 0 Comments
Classic Lucille Ball and Dick Van Dyke sitcoms return to CBS primetime
(From left) Vivian Vance, Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz and William Frawley star in the "I Love Lucy Christmas Special" Friday on CBS.
Lucy Ricardo and Rob Petrie have joined the list of holiday-season television staples also including Rudolph, Frosty and Charlie Brown.
Classic, colorized episodes of "I Love Lucy" and "The Dick Van Dyke Show" now fuel annual CBS specials, and the latest versions air Friday, Dec. 14. The episodes are intact from their original showings, though they initially were produced in – and broadcast in – black-and-white.
'The I Love Lucy Christmas Special' starts with a story familiar to anyone who has seen earlier versions — and to many people who were watching TV on Christmas Eve in 1956. "The Christmas Episode" always is the first half of the "Lucy" yuletide-special hour, with clips from previous tales illustrating how different life became for Lucy and Ricky (Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz) after son Little Ricky (Keith Thibodeaux, aka Richard Keith) was born.
Don't worry, "Lucy" fans: Neighbors and friends Fred and Ethel Mertz (William Frawley, Vivian Vance) are on hand, too, helping the Ricardos decorate their holiday tree while recalling times gone by.
The adult characters also are present in the episode that serves as this year's companion piece in the "Lucy" Christmas special, "Pioneer Women." The ladies engage in a bet with their husbands over who can last the longest without modern conveniences (or as modern as they were in the early 1950s) …one byproduct being one of the longest loaves of bread ever seen on the home screen. Or anywhere else, for that matter.
Dick Van Dyke (left) and Larry Mathews star in "The Dick Van Dyke Show: Now in Living Color!" Friday on CBS.
(Worth mentioning: It wasn't a prop. It was quite real, and it was divvied up after the filming for the cast, crew and audience. If you see "Hunk of Stale Bread From 'I Love Lucy'" on an Internet auction site, don't scoff.)
In the "The Dick Van Dyke Show – Now in Living Color!" hour that follows, the two stories aren't necessarily seasonal, but they were chosen by series creator (and, as Alan Brady, sometimes co-star) Carl Reiner to represent what he believes to be Van Dyke at his best. Reiner also wrote both, the first of which is 1961's "Where Did I Come From?," with that question from young Richie (Larry Mathews) prompting related memories from Rob and Laura Petrie (Van Dyke, Mary Tyler Moore).
Then, "Never Bathe on Saturday" (first shown in 1965) finds Laura in a decidedly Lucy-like predicament … with her toe getting stuck in a bathtub spout while she and Rob are on their second honeymoon. Since the bathroom door is locked, Rob can't get in to free her.
Consider the return of Ball and Van Dyke and company to CBS' primetime lineup a holiday gift once again, then. And chances are very good it won't be the last time.

Did it miss all the important bits?
Well, it's a brain, so we tend to think of all of it as quite important.
Every now and then I watch a movie and afterward I can't decide whether it's good or bad. "iBoy" is such a movie. I thought the initial idea was fascinating. The fact that Tom (Bill "Broken" Milner), got a bullet through his head, while fleeing from robbers, and his iPhone (which he was using while contacting 911) was shot into smithereens and fragments ended up in his brain, was in itself an original starting point. The result afterward is that thanks to the advanced technology of the iPhone, he's able to make mental contact with communication networks and information technology stuff. Isn't that breeding ground for an entertaining movie? But the moment he demonstrates how he controls a Volkswagen Golf remotely and uses the built-in radio to speak to the passengers, it was a bridge too far. As he takes control of any electronic device, it started to feel a bit absurd.
If however you manage to forget about that and you won't concentrate on the nonsensical content (as a result of the nonsense-level decreases slightly), you'll get an entertaining film about a sort of superhero (without the obligatory superhero outfit) who takes revenge on those who assaulted Lucy (Maisie Williams), the girl he has a soft spot for. Tom soon discovers that some local thugs are behind this. And thanks to his high-tech capabilities he starts making their life difficult. The images he sees because of his newly gained powers have a sort of "The Matrix" appearance. And slowly we see how the fairly timid and introverted Tom changes into a confident and resolute avenger who's not one to be trifled with. The instruction video on YouTube that suddenly transforms Tom into a trained practitioner of the martial arts, is again such a ridiculous event you should forget about real soon. Just making sure it won't spoil the fun.
"iBoy" is a mixture of different genres. Besides the superhero theme, there's also a social tinged drama about less well-off citizens with youngsters choosing to follow the criminal path. The overall picture includes some intimidating loiterers who spend their free time with committing small crimes. Their habitat is also in stark contrast with the magnificent buildings opposite their drab apartment buildings which rise like minarets between the futuristic-looking luxury apartments where the yuppies of London live. And finally, there is a romantic part with Tom and Lucy growing close to each other because of the incident. These three sub-genres were intelligently intertwined.
Initially, I expected some sort of teen SF (something like "Project Almanac") after reading its contents. And certainly, the choice of a childish superhero name paved the way for that thought. So, with some skepticism, I started watching this movie. But as the story progressed, my suspicion vanished and I could only conclude that the result was ultimately successful. And not only because of the stunning images of this metropolis and its nightly illuminations. Also, the performances captivated me. Bill Milner looked like a nerd and was sometimes too timid, but he excels in this role. Rory Kinnear's contribution is rather limited, but in those few minutes he came across as a cold-blooded and determined criminal you shouldn't underestimate. But especially Maisie Williams steals the show as the vulnerable and traumatized Lucy. What a beautiful performance. I only hope, no one will come up with the idea to make a film adaptation of someone whose PS4 exploded beside him. Or God forbid, an e-cig detonated in someone's pocket. I can already imagine how this movie would look like.
