How to Fix Procurement's Fake Savings Problem
Posted: 10/27/2021 - 00:00
Author: Rich Ham
How to Get CFOs to Promote Procurement
Back on September 9, we learned Kraft Heinz (KHC) had paid $62 million in fines for what SEC enforcement division director Anita Bandy called "…improper expense management practices that spanned many years and involved numerous misleading transactions, millions in bogus cost savings and a pervasive breakdown in accounting controls."
The SEC complaint cites among its grievances that Kraft Heinz employees negotiated a range of new supplier agreements loaded with front-end and short-term benefits tied to future commitments and then "…prematurely and improperly recognize(d) the expense savings."
This revelation caught my attention because—for multiple years now—I've been writing and speaking about the pervasive phenomenon I've been calling "fake savings," and the underlying issues with procurement department incentive plans that perpetuate it.
The phenomenon is especially prevalent in the indirect services arena, where many of the most complex expenses reside. Here's what we've been seeing in this space: Leaned-out procurement departments—vulnerable and under siege by their indirect suppliers—have reported savings initiative after savings initiative, only for those same initiatives to never implement properly to begin with and then rapidly erode after category managers have moved on to other projects.
If you're a procurement professional, the KHC "bogus savings" episode shouldn't just cross your radar as a story about corrupt practices in someone else's organization. Rather, it should serve as a warning to the entire procurement enterprise that if your output isn't real, consequences will follow, whether in the form of millions of dollars in fines or simply in the loss of credibility and prestige within an organization.
Now, let me be clear: the "fake savings" I've been writing and talking about is, in fairness, less nefarious than the sorts of blatant misrepresentations cited in the SEC complaint against KHC (and, it should be said, it seems KHC has employed a number of corrective measures since the offenses occurred).
I would argue, though, that the pattern of reported "savings initiatives" failing to fully materialize in the P&L—and then even more consistently failing to stick as intended—is only a couple of stones' throws away from the phenomena at the core of the KHC matter. And while the sorts of "bogus savings" considered crimes by the SEC may be relatively rare, the sort of "fake savings" I'm talking about isn't just commonplace, it's the norm in many complex indirect categories.
The (Flawed) Rules of the Game
It would be easy to argue that the fundamental problem responsible for creating "fake savings" is a lack of resources. Fair enough, leanness is a reality—and not one likely to change anytime soon. This reality does indeed create vulnerabilities in the natural, ongoing buyer-seller "joust," but it is a reparable problem. In 2021, the marketplace offers many opportunities for procurement resources to augment in-house resources with outside solutions to drive results and efficiencies, and to hold suppliers accountable.
No, the main problem is the rules of the game—the incentive plans handed to procurement departments, the ways credit and rewards are meted out—and the behaviors these rules promote.
Chief among them:
1. Rewards before results – To be blunt, it is nonsensical that procurement-led "savings initiatives" are credited and rewarded in most companies before a single dollar of the supposed savings has hit the P&L. In many categories, the list of factors that threaten to render intended savings as "fake" is a long one, and procurement resources are typically ill-equipped to defend against these threats.
Now, measuring what actually happens (especially in more complex expense categories) in a landscape that inevitably shifts over time is not an easy task. But it's also not impossible. Developing an understanding of specific problematic expenses and arriving at appropriate systems of measurement –including normalization mechanisms based on a changing landscape – is something which can and should be prioritized by smart businesses. Once these systems of measurement are in place, a business has set the stage to measure – and reward – procurement's efforts based on actual results, not theoretical and often flawed projections.
Without doing the work required to measure true P&L impact rather than projections of savings, procurement departments will be doomed to continue doling out credit for "fake savings."
2. Counting only the good – "Pat the Purchaser" owns $100MM in indirect expenses and is handed a 5% "reportable savings" expectation each year across these expenses. In most companies, attainment of that 5% comes from tabulating the projected dollar value of the approved savings initiatives during that fiscal year. Pat won't typically drive initiatives in ALL her categories in a given year, so if Pat owns 10 categories, each representing $10MM in annual spend, it's likely her $5MM in reportable savings comes from initiatives in only half of those 10 categories (or 10% average savings across five categories totaling $50MM).
Here's the flaw: If Pat's other five categories experience cost increases beyond their intended spend levels (indeed, often spend levels that are a product of prior years' reported initiatives), this tends to have no impact on Pat attaining her "numbers" for the year.
This tendency NOT to hold procurement resources accountable for flawed savings projections or savings erosion due to myriad factors (many of which are predictable and manageable) belies the very definition of the phrase category management. Further, this flaw actively promotes "fake savings." If category managers were required to net cost escalations in other categories with current-year reported savings initiatives, "fake savings" would dramatically reduce as procurement resources would prioritize P&L impact in a way that is generally not required in 2021.
3. Overvaluing the short term (and undervaluing the long) – A dollar in your hand today is indeed more valuable than a dollar in your hand three years from now. As I type, today's dollar is about 10% to 15% more valuable than October 2024's dollar. But looking at the 2021 procurement landscape, you'd think 2024's dollar was almost worthless – and this promotes illogical and counterproductive decision-making.
A specific culprit in this context is the tendency to view all expenses – even those where multi-year supplier commitments are the norm – through a year-over-year lens.
Suppose the last five-year hazardous waste contract signed by ABC Widgets led to a five-year spend of $20MM, and as that deal approaches expiration, Pat finds a way to drive 20% out of those costs through effective negotiations (and then finds a way to manage the category to ensure the savings sticks). It is hard to argue Pat didn't add $4MM in value for ABC Widgets in this scenario. And yet, in almost every procurement department, the rules of the game assign no value to the impact Pat's work has made on years two through five of this contract.
The net of these three deep flaws in corporate procurement plan structures is not just a lack of incentive to effectively manage expenses and advance the company's long-term interests—but indeed often a disincentive to do these seemingly obvious activities for any ownership-minded businessperson. By many departments' incentive structures, Pat can do quite well submitting a stream of "savings initiatives" that take short-term gains in exchange for longer-term sacrifices, and which never quite hit the P&L as intended and rapidly erode from there, creating "low-hanging fruit" to do it all over again in a few years.
It's completely unproductive and it's pervasive.
The True Lessons of the KHC Story
Turning directly to procurement professionals, I say this, channeling my inner Robin Williams: It's not your fault.
Firstly, you're overburdened and understaffed. You're all being asked to do the work of two to three people. Secondly, it's hard to ask human beings to choose more productive behaviors if easier, less productive behaviors might more directly serve their personal financial interests. And beyond your leanness, the rules of the game in your departments are driving the "fake savings" phenomenon more than anything else.
There is some good news in all this, though. These common issues in the 2021 procurement landscape do provide opportunities for new waves of leadership to emerge and employ more ownership-minded strategies to produce lasting P&L impact and advance the business' long-term interests. Identifying flaws in the system and taking charge of the repairs is, after all, a thing that good leaders do.
Fixing procurement incentive plan flaws and the "fake savings" they promote is no small challenge, but it is one that should be tackled. Good fixes in this realm will elevate the profession and leave practitioners feeling better about their roles and reputations in their companies.

This is on the fringes, alright! Although the lyrics appear to be missing syntax, the slide of meaning presented in those four lines adequately represents the experience of listening to Fringe, displaying an inclination to lose the listener in twisting structures and irregular emphasis. Goodtime riffs and heads duly banged this is not.
Musically, Fringe has been constructed in the same manner as Sheldon Cooper's criticism on his peers' work: a sort of "Let's assume that everything you have done until now is wrong" restructuring takes place. Band names such as Neurosis and Triptykon may orbit the sound, but Lurk very much have their own gravitational pull. According to the most impressive tracks here, such as "Furrow", Neurosis were doing things wrong by trying to incorporate too many different styles into their shifting moodscapes, while Triptykon and Mr Warrior himself apparently never used the distinctive vocals to their fullest effect. As for other extreme-influenced doom and sludge groups, Lurk show them up as unimaginative and predictable in their orthodoxy. "Furrow" does possess a grindingly heavy main riff, but that riff doesn't boom out from the guitar of Arttu Pulkkinen as chords or a single string assault, rather melding low chords with mid-range dissonant notes to form an overwhelming swamp of sound. As it progresses, the melodies Pulkkinen plays stand stark against restrained bass playing and temporarily muted drums, which a moment before had crashed restlessly against a gentler riff.
Other than the menace of disorientation, Fringe proves capable of more general exploits. "Nether" is overall the simplest song, the only one to capitulate before four minutes: the piece succumbs to a basic sludgy roar, though it works as a prelude to the longer closer much as "Cutting" did for the title track on the preceding album Kaldera. Similarly, "Ostrakismos" (aptly based around the theme of ostracism) spends more than half its duration stealing the listener away from their surroundings with shifting ambiance and the build-up of tension, finally stabbing home with one of the more forceful doom riffs and a few skulking verses from Koskinen that belie its role as a deliberate instrumental introduction to the album. The remaining cuts bear slightly less of distinction, though enforce Lurk's methods and maintain a portion of insidious atmosphere.
Deciding on the quality of an album such as Fringe is always frustrating, largely because the originality of the music greatly outweighs considerations of its enjoyment. Suffice it to say that no possibility exists of merely listening to Lurk "for fun", nor will the casual listener extract much of worth from the album, since the evenness and gradual, creeping change of the songs represents their finest feature. However, for those willing to dive down into the murk, engrossing detail and hypnotic movements prove their worth, while the lyrics set the bar extremely high for unsettling abstractions. Because the recent release of Fringe on various formats by Transcending Obscurity Records actually marked more than two years since its original independent release, we may be able to expect more introspective menace from Finland before too long. Consider this album an opportunity to get acquainted.

An incompatibility with a software update and subsequent attempt to fix it were the root cause of glitch that forced a nearly four-hour long suspension of trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday.
The exchange traced the problems back to an update applied to a single system on Tuesday evening. The new software was related to an upcoming industry-wide test of a new timestamp procedure for communications.
On Wednesday morning as customers began connecting to the system, communications issues arose because of an incompatibility between the new software and configurations in customer systems. The software in the customer systems was updated prior to the market open at 9:30 a.m. EDT, but that update caused additional issues, the NYSE said in a statement.
The issue was investigated shortly after 11 a.m. and within 30 minutes, the exchange took the decision to suspend trading.
It remained suspended until just after 3 p.m. EDT, when the market restarted for the final hour of trading.
The NYSE accomplished that by switching over to back-up servers at a Mahwah, New Jersey data center that were not loaded with the new software.
The suspension hit the headlines around the world because it was one of the biggest disruptions faced by the NYSE in years, but its actual impact was muted because NYSE-listed stocks continued to trade on other exchanges.
It came hours after a glitch grounded hundreds of United Airlines flights across the country, but the NYSE and White House moved quickly to dispel fears that the outage was caused by a cyberattack. United Airlines later said its problems were traced to a faulty network router.


Today, the New Mexico Department of Health (NMDOH) and Department of Veterans Services (DVS) announced plans to expand long-term care services for veterans at Fort Bayard Medical Center (FBMC) in Silver City, New Mexico.
As the state's veteran population ages, DVS reports that there is a need for as many as 200 additional long-term care beds for New Mexico veterans NMDOH has worked over the last few years to improve service capacity at state-operated facilities across New Mexico.
To make this change possible, NMDOH will relocate drug and alcohol abuse treatment services currently offered at its Yucca Lodge Chemical Dependency Treatment Center (located at FBMC), to the New Mexico Rehabilitation Center in Roswell. The move will enable FBMC to focus its efforts on long-term care services and expand veterans' services utilizing the space left vacant by the transition.
New Mexico Rehabilitation Center (NMRC) will become the southern New Mexico hub for NMDOH's drug and alcohol treatment services, along with the department's Turquoise Lodge Hospital in Albuquerque. NMRC and Turquoise Lodge will offer inpatient and outpatient drug and alcohol misuse and abuse services including: medical detoxification, social rehabilitation, and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) services.
Earlier this year, NMDOH and DVS announced plans to streamline and improve services for New Mexico's veterans by moving management of the State Veterans Home in Truth or Consequences from NMDOH to DVS, aligning both state and federal resources to better serve our veterans.

Q: TypeScript compilation fails due to invalid type (although the type is correct) I'm struggling with one issue, and I don't know what's wrong with my code.
client.on("messageReactionAdd", async (reaction, user) => {

  console.log(user.id)

})

Here, the reaction argument has a type of MessageReaction | PartialMessageReaction and user argument has a type of User | PartialUser. Property id does exist on type User and therefore there should be nothing wrong with this code. But when I compile it using nodemon:
index.ts:38:20 - error TS2339: Property 'id' does not exist on type 'MessageReaction | PartialMessageReaction'.
  Property 'id' does not exist on type 'MessageReaction'.

38   console.log(user.id)

as you can see, for some reason the compiler thinks that user is of type MessageReaction. I tried logging out the user argument and this is the output:
User {
  id: '888509500842184701',
  bot: false,
  system: false,
  flags: UserFlagsBitField { bitfield: 0 },
  username: "[hidden]",
  discriminator: "[hidden]",
  avatar: 'a5b93bc5ac8fc7fb3e02d85af65b8ba7',
  banner: undefined,
  accentColor: undefined
}

Is this a problem with compiler? What can I do to fix this?
Thanks for your help!
Full code:
import { Client, GatewayIntentBits } from 'discord.js'

const client = new Client({intents: [GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages, GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent, GatewayIntentBits.Guilds, GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessageReactions]})

client.on("ready", () => {
  console.log("client ready!");

})

client.on("messageCreate", async (m) => {
  if(m.channelId !== "1038172955621994496") return
  if(m.author.id == client.user!.id) return

  if(m.content === ";setup" && m.member?.permissions.has("Administrator")){

    await m.delete()

    const msg = await m.channel.send({embeds: [    {
      "title": "Create a Ticket",
      "description": "React with :question: to create a ticket",
      "color": 30719
    }]})

    await msg.react('❓')

    msg.createReactionCollector()

  }
})

client.on("messageReactionAdd", async (reaction, user) => {

  console.log(user.id)

})

client.login("***").then(() => {
  console.log("bot running")
})

A: Fixed it by npm i typescript. Not sure how it fixed my issue, but it did the job.

Tourists planning to visit the island will find a few interesting activities to engage and places to visit.
There Oheka Castle to visit. If there's a wedding happening you might not get a chance to enter unless you are among the invited guests. The castle offers a breathtaking view. Take your time to visit the castle so you can go around it leisurely. The castle looks lovely as can be seen from the pictures.
Visiting a cemetery might not be everyone's cup of tea. But you can pause for some time to take a walk by it and just take a look at the memorials built in the name of those warriors who gave their lives.
Adventureland Long Island is another place you can visit and if you have kids they will like it from the start. The rides will keep you going for several hours and the family will enjoy the day thoroughly. Let the kids take rides while the elders can go do their own thing or you may want to join the kids for their safety.
By the time you emerge from the park, you will be thrilled and all exhausted for sure, wanting to return some time again.
For those interested in theaters, take a tour of the Gateway. Classes are conducted and if one is lucky he/she may enroll in one such class during the tour. However, for those only interested in visiting, The Gateway holds celebrations like the New Year's Eve and others. If you are on time, buy tickets to the events and book yourself a seat.
There is the Paint the Town Studio and the Long Island aquarium and the animal shelter to visit. Foodies can rejoice in the fact that there are restaurants where you can have your fill of gastronomy.
Apart from the above, people can make their own plans to spend the day in fun and laughter. Take your family out on a picnic and when they need more entertainment let them have a day out with friends in some restaurant of their choice. With that many people in the island, it is thickly populated.
The island is looking to sort out its water problem and with the waters nearby you can look forward to a great time while the authorities break their head over it.
When in New York, visit us in the island and make the best of your tour by visiting the places that interest you.


Sullivan Delaney: But you can do everything!
Ryan Delaney: No I can't.
Sullivan Delaney: Name one thing you can't do.
This movie has been a personal favorite of mine for a long time. I first watched it on the Disney Channel when I was young. It took me a long time finally get the video and hope it will be released on DVD soon. I believe the reason why I admire this film so much is that the story portrays a very real relationship between two brothers. The older brother Ryan, (played wonderfully by Greg Spottiswood) is really irritated when he has to accomodate his plans to fit in with taking care of his little brother, Sullivan (a charming performance by Zachary Bennett) . He feels more like Sullivan is a nuisance more than a brother. This is a scenario I can realate to being the oldest of many younger sibs. When they get to camp is where the characters really develop and the scenes are well done. They go from being really funny and embarrassing to heart warming and tender. Ratface was a wonderful character too and I'm suprized the boy who played him (Noah Godfrey)was not in more films. The supporting cast were all fabulous and I also like the scenes where it's just Ryan and the other councelors he's over was well, especially where he and Moe sneak off to the girl's camp. Uplifting movie with a beautiful message and excellent acting. This film was also set in the 1930's and I found the clothing, scenery and dialogue to very historically accurate. Terrific movie directed by the same man who gave us the wonderful saga of Anne of Green Gables/Avonlea. A real pleasure to watch and I recommend it to everyone.


Hackernoon, one of the most popular online tech publications in the world, is raising money for the first time via equity crowdfunding in a bid to create their own CMS platform and update their business model, the company announced on their website on November 6, 2018.
In a bid to launch Hackernoon 2.0, a new and improved version of the fan-favorite publication, the company has announced the start of an equity crowdfunding found. According to the company's website, the main reason behind the move was to create a Content Management System that would enable the company to leave Medium's native platform.
The incredible popularity of Hackernoon is visible in the metrics provided in the announcement, which show it surpassed even TechCrunch in categories such as visits and unique visitors, as well as bounce rate and story quality.
Building a new CMS from scratch will allow the company to keep all of its content free and rely less on third-party ads that are inherent to Medium's platform. In the announcement, Hackernoon said that it was raising $1,069,993.40 for 14.32 percent ownership of the company with a $6,404,200 pre-money valuation. If this crowdfund round is fully subscribed, the company's post-money valuation will be about $7.5 million.
The company also said that it plans on launching a Hackernoon token, explaining that a token raise will be the most probable and highest-ceiling route for launching Hackernoon 3.0. And while the company is entirely common stock, all crowdfund shareholders will grant their voting rights to the CEO to simplify logistics.
What Does Hackernoon 2.0 Bring?
According to the company's announcement, Hackernoon plans on using approximately half of the $1 million that will be raised in funding to build a profitable site without Medium's Content Management System. Most of the other half of the funding will be spent on writer bounties and developers, with software and other expenses making up the smaller part.
Allocating such a large percentage of the raised funds to writers will enable Hackernoon to focus more on the website's contributors and grow both their user and reader base. In version 2.0, verified writers will be able to earn the right to hit publish, while community editors will be able to win the right to control the site's curation.
Another big update to Hackernoon will be the ability for readers to tip contributors with both fiat and crypto, while writers could earn points for their contributions. These "hacker points" as the company described them, could serve as the basis for not only site influence, but also a Hackernoon cryptocurrency.


This painting is called Enter the Sixth Land. It is some kind of portal to the place I've described here. I painted it in 1991 during a very fruitful period when I was living a lonely life in a bedsit in Westbourne Park.
I was exhibiting in galleries in London and selling almost everything. This was good but also challenging as I couldn't keep up with demand and as a young artist I was not making enough from sales to cover my living expenses.
There was a watershed moment when I was invited to show my portfolio to an art dealer at a swanky gallery in Knightsbridge, and he told me directly that although he wanted to exhibit my work in a show that opened in two weeks time, none of what I showed him was of good enough quality to exhibit and he rejected it all. I was deeply disheartened but also somewhat relieved that the pressure was off. I could step back and spend time getting the work back to where I knew it needed to be.
The truth is, I wasn't brave enough to give up my part-time job as a new car delivery driver for Ford and completely devote myself to painting*. I was feeling burned out trying to produce enough while maintaining the integrity of the work.
Then, a lot of other stuff seemed to happen; relationships, travel, injuries, mortgages and a full-time job to pay for it all and I was being dragged further and further away from my paintings.
There is a timelime close by where I continued to do nothing but paint and develop my work, and sell, and build my reputation, and my life maybe is very different there.
But in this timeline, I didn't care about my reputation as an artist and I didn't want to be churning out work to sell and I didn't devote myself fully to art. That's just the way it is.
*This was a great job. Everyday, I would be given a different new car which I had to deliver somewhere, usually another town, and often quite far away. I've taken cars to Cornwall, and a town north of Glasgow. I've pretty much visited every major city and town in the country, if only just for a few hours. If there wasn't a car to bring back, I'd take the train home, and effectively be paid for reading or gazing out of the window, and every time, I would have been somewhere new. These journeys, these glimpses of other places and other histories and other lives fed my imagination and went into a lot of the painting I was doing at the time.

Kim Harris portrays Charlie Parkhurst for Jacks Valley and Minden Elementary students Friday morning at the Genoa Cowboy Festival.
The Genoa Town Hall shook like a stampede of horses was running through it Friday morning, but it was just Minden and Jacks Valley elementary school fourth and fifth-graders galloping and clapping their hands to the beat of country singer Trinity Seely.
The students were participating in the kick off the 7th annual Genoa Cowboy Festival.
The festival is a weekend-long event that promotes the cowboy way and the unique history and culture of the Carson Valley.
The students listened to country music, a Chautauqua performance of Charlie Parkhurst played by Kim Harris and Cowboy poetry by Randy Reiman.
In addition to the music and poetry, visitors over the course of the weekend had the opportunity to enjoy ranch tours, Dutch oven cooking demonstrations, western dancing, Chautauqua presentations and Western shootouts, including reenactments by the Civil War Volunteers and Living History Ladies.
The reenactment group portrays both civilian and soldier encampments that would have been present during the Civil War.
The re-enactors focus on education when they are at events like the Cowboy Festival.
"It's like going back in time," said Susie Giuriani a living history ladies re-enactor. "Living history and having the chance to honor those who lived before us is rewarding. It's certainly not glorified, but it's about keeping history alive. If you don't teach history, you're going to relive it."
Giuriani and several other women congregated around an 1800s style campground where they educated students on different styles of dresses and how they were maintained and worn.
"The fellowship of friendship you get from doing this is just amazing," said Giuriani. "We sit around and talk with each other and people of the event coming together to learn about our past to improve our future."
The festival wraps up today with Cowboy Church 9-10:30 a.m. in the Genoa Town Hall, Dutch oven presentations from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. at Ranch No. 1 apple orchard and more Chautauqua and musical performances at Mormon Station and the Town Hall.

Fringe, "Jacksonville": The glimmer woman
A quick review of the "Fringe" winter finale coming up just as soon as you get me some pretzels...
As "Fringe" heads into another long, frustrating hiatus (so that Fox can find a timeslot for the very silly "Past Life"), I'm wondering how strong my interest will be in seeing the show when it returns in April. There are some things it does very well. You can always count, for instance, on freaky/cool/disturbing teasers, like tonight's collision of two buildings from parallel universes, and the people in them(*). And John Noble will always be wonderful, whether he's being endearingly wacky (the pretzel gag), or terrified, or forced to face up to the despicable nature of all those experiments he did with "Bellie" all those years ago. And episodes can usually be counted on to wrap up well, as we got the swirling building disappearance (with better CGI effects than I've seen on a number of shows this week, like "Lost" and "Human Target") and Olivia discovering Walter's terrible secret about which universe this Peter Bishop came from.
(*) The most prominent of said people was played by Jim True-Frost, well-known to "Wire" fans as Prez. I was a little disappointed he didn't get a chance to do much with old co-star Lance Reddick, frankly.
The problem, almost always, is in the long, boring middle between the disturbing teasers and the episode's resolution - and that seems to be true whether it's a standalone episode like last week's evil Nazi story or a mythology-heavy one like this. I also don't find Olivia wandering around a fantasy dreamscape nearly as fascinating as the show's producers do.
Because "Fringe" airs on such a busy viewing night for me and simply isn't as high on my priority list as, say, the NBC comedies, I tend to let episodes stack up on the DVR for a while. And when I get to them, it's usually in conjunction with completing some other task. (The Nazi episode accompanied yesterday morning's workout, and then the sorting of some laundry.) It's not a bad show, but even in is more mythology-heavy episodes (which tend to be the creatively stronger ones), it's rarely compelling enough that I feel in the need to hurry to see it. And with it being out of sight, out of mind until April Fool's Day, it may feel very easy for me to just cut the cord.
The ratings have ticked up in recent weeks, and some people at Fox I spoke with at press tour seemed perfectly content with the ratings when you factor in DVR usage. (They knew when they moved it to Thursdays that its audience might wait a day or two to watch it, but would be technologically-adept enough to be willing and able to do that.) We'll just have to see how much loyalty there is over the next two months.
Labels: Fringe
Walter said the combination he didn't know the significance of was 5-20-10. That, not coincidentally, is the date of the season finale.
I'm surprised Walter didn't track down his old assistant (lover?) who was played by Theresa Russell earlier this season. She had the ability to see the "glimmer" as well.
I don't really understand why Olivia only noticed the glimmer on Peter at the end of the episode and didn't see it earlier when she said she was afraid right before he was about to kiss her.
compain87 said...
I really liked the winter finale. As long as they have John Noble playing Walter Bishop I'm in.
I listened to you and Feinberg talk about Fringe on the podcast. I don't mind the middle during the Mythology episodes, but I think they might want to tweak the shows that aren't mythology episodes. You were right in that they need to improve the procedural part of the show (or was that Feinberg). I really enjoy the Mythology heavy episodes because with fringe even though you might be confused at least we have Peter Bishop to explain Walter's Ramblings. I think it is by far the best lost knock off show. Oddly with the whole alternate reality thing going on in lost they both are discussing the same things. Now if only we could send Walter and Peter to the Island. If this happened last season there could have been an epic meeting of the minds between Walter Bishop and Daniel Faraday with Peter Bishop as the interpreter.
One thing that I found interesting is how Walter is the one being blamed for all the things done to Oliviaand other children. Feinberg even wanted to compare him to Hitler. if it wasn't for Walter saying Bellie then i really feel like no one would remember that it was more than just Walter. Walter did these horrible things but in the end it seems like what he wanted was to get his son back even if that meant stealing him from another dimension. William Bell it seems just wanted to get rich. Until the audience saw he was Leonard Nimoy we accepted he was just exploiting science for his company. Now there is this shift that he is almost a General in this Inter-dimensional war between alternate realities. Personally I feel like this shift wouldn't have occurred if it was anyone else but with Nimoy they almost changed the dynamic to Nimoy. Is this just me?
It was nice to see Prez on my TV. I always enjoy anything a little more if it involves someone from The Wire.
Sorry Alan for the long post.
Opening Cryron "Manhatan" with one T. Thought it was a typo until I saw the New Pentagon plans before the multi-Quake.
Gabriel said...
I came to this show late, got caught up and am now fully addicted. I'm a sucker for great characters and this show has them - not just Walter, with Noble as a total knockout (another great Australian actor!), but I love Astrid too, and I think the Walter-Peter chemistry is great. I've come round to OIlvia's odd persona (I would say Anna Torv is not one of our great actors, but she's OK). I love pretty much every episode (with the exception of the one with the horrible plotholes a little while back (Grey Matters, I think - the one where oops, suddenly Olivia didn't have back up). I'm just disappointed about the imminent pairing up of Peter and Olivia. When romance is introduced it always ruins it for me.
Derek said...
The absolute worst thing you can say about a show like Fringe is that it was boring.
Tonight's episode was boring. I spent all 60 minutes waiting for the last few seconds, when Olivia saw Peter for what he was.
And it's not that I'm so smart. The writers have been heavy handed in their "Peter is from the other universe" hints since last season.
Boring.
Count Screwloose said...
Loved the 'Manhatan' gag, too.
Have to agree that for all of its coolness quotient, there are pacing problems that leave one feeling like there's an empty center when it's over. Not sure what they can do besides either holding their cards a little closer to their vests, or perhaps complicating things further to create more of what is becoming a rapidly diminishing mystery.
Was having a few 'Cloverfield' flashbacks tonight, though, which was cool.
TW said...
I think it is the best show on television.
Yes, the procedural parts are often the weakest, but you sit through them because you care. You care about the characters and cherish every little moment of joy that the actors deliver through their characters each and every week.
It's no different than the other so-called great shows like Lost or the X-Files. The weaker epidodes will still be there and the overarching mythology may sometimes seem secondary, but in the end it doesn't matter when you've found the real essence of the show.
And for me, most of the 'weak' episodes haven't really been weak at all.
Jason G. said...
My biggest issue was the sudden chemistry-less attempted kiss between Peter and Olivia. It's as if the producers were taking their cues from conjecture or network executives and not the story. They have done nothing to build up any romantic chemistry between the two. In fact, they've only improved the almost sibling-esque chemistry between the two. Peter still had better chemistry with Olivia's sister.
And they just didn't build up to this properly. So to me it totally came off as something done to appease Fox or as if someone from Us weekly stepped into the writer's room and said "those two are cute...can i get a hook and an up!"
OldDarth said...
Arrrgh - now have to wait till April for the next episode. FOX drives me nuts.
I was kind of surprised they went this route with the Peter revelation. Really thought Astrid was going to be the one to break this story line open.
This revelation will split the team apart. Olivia is between a rock and a hard place. If she says nothing and Peter finds out, Peter will be upset at her and Walter. If she says anything, the rebuilding of the relationship between Walter and Peter is lost.
The salient question is, is there another Walter in the alternate universe? I hope so, for that is a more dramatic storyline.
Xeddicus said...
Seemed like a bit of a plot hole all the people got out the building/didn't cross over. Buildings need to be balanced, but not people? Minor quibble, though.
Fringe does have problems, mainly FOX taking it off the air for dumb reasons. Quality wise it's better than most of everything else on TV or as good as.
I'm pretty sure Peter is what helps her kick start her powers, he was present both times now. So if he does kiss her she'll get her fire starting powers back!
Well, at least this week was better than last.
Fringe is decent, but it certainly doesn't have it's hooks in me the way most JJ Abrams shows do. I'm mostly in it for John Noble and, to be totally honest, because I've been crushing on Joshua Jackson since his Mighty Ducks days.
The almost kiss between Peter and Olivia was totally out of left field. It felt so wrong to me. The writers haven't put any effort into building sexual tension between the two. If they want a romance there, they have to earn it, not just expect the audience to go along with it because they happen to have two attractive people to conveniently stick together. Personally I hope they drop it.
But I am interested to see where they take Peter's story, now that it's confirmed he is from the parallel universe. And I'd love to see Astrid get a bigger part, she has fantastic chemistry with both Walter and Peter.
7s Tim said...
So what kid from our side got sucked over the Earth-2 when Walter stole Peter? Is he gonna be the big reveal in the season finale (I also felt a large smack on the head from the writers when the "I don't know why our combination matches our season finale" line was said--- Hey guys, listen to this, it's important!)? Is Anti-Peter the general of the invading hordes?
I believe Walter and Bell were trying to prepare our side for the invasion they could see coming and not just messing with kids. I also wanna know how they could see it coming-- a psychic from his past gonna crawl outta the woodwork when the season returns? As horrific as experimenting on kids may be, and as ruthless a person as Old Walter has sometimes been shown to be, they are fighting a war for our reality, so maybe some ends mitigate, if not justify, the means.
Commenter who said the non-mythology episodes should be a little peppier was right since it would solve some of the pacing issues. When big ol' craziness is going down, having the characters take a beat and just process it, or showing that even during inter-reality conflict there are quiet moments, can be a good thing. But having it happen every episode can be frustrating. A could one-off eps that fly by at breakneck speed would make the quiet moments more of a novelty. They just need to trim that fat a little: Olivia wandering around the schoolhouse, and playing on swings, and sitting in a burned up little room-- we get it, there is a feeling of helplessness building, but you don't gotta make it seem like the potential for failure is exacerbated by their inability to adapt to the situation. Liked the scene of Walter finding his old glasses. Maybe he can regain a little of the old walter while at the same time still being a likeable character.
I laughed, I cried, I cared...it reached me, it made me feel, and that to me is the bar by which I measure wether or not something is a good show/episode. This one worked for me.
I enjoy "spelunking" through the dichotomy of Walter's personality. A man who struggles daily, almost minute by minute, with his own personal demons. His seemingly amoral decisions of the past creeping back in to demand payment because, as he stated in this episode, the universe (multiverse) demands balance.
Sometimes things like "pacing" and "ratings" and "cgi" are irrelevant, just as whether or not something is aired during a "busy viewing night" in the age of streaming anything/anytime online when you are in the mood.
Thia episode brought to a boil several plot points that had been previously simmering throughout the show. Peter's is from "the other side" and Walter is a big-fat-selfish liar for bringing him here and not being honest about it/facing it, Walter's love for Olivia manifesting in a desire for her to marry Peter, Olivia's need to confront Walter for experimenting on her when she was a "defenseless child". I found it poignant, heartfelt and real.
This show is not without its flaws in the areas of science and cinema, but I "suspend my disbelief" and I feel that it is worthy of being judged on its own merits. Taken back to an obscure basement laboratory on the Harvard campus, as it were, and being examined objectively.
Peter still had better chemistry with Olivia's sister.
I missed a few eps last season. What happened between Peter & Olivia's sister? I thought they had something going.
Whatever pacing probs (and much less Prez than I wanted) in this ep, Glimmery Peter made up for it. I cannot wait until April for this show to come back!
Prez! That really made my day, even though he didn't interact with Daniels.
The glimmers reminded me of Doctor Who in the episode where Rose gets trapped in the parallel world - In DW, it was people who travelled in time who gets the timey wimey dust stuff on them, here the glimmers are on things from the parallel world.
for me, the ONLY thing wrong with fringe is that i don't care a single bit about olivia. unfortunately, this is a relatively major thing. it makes all the scenes and dynamics centering on her labor really hard to work, if they work at all. i don't know if it's an acting problem or a writing problem, but it just feels like she's in the way of the show. it shouldn't. she's the lead character (even if it's an ensemble show), and she's got crazy powers. but it does. i still look forward to episodes, but anything focused on the other characters or the larger mythology is going to work much better than stuff that focuses on olivia. at least for me and my friends who like the show.

> Switzerland draws up regulation to include international aviation in its ETS as it negotiates linkage with the EU ETS
Switzerland draws up regulation to include international aviation in its ETS as it negotiates linkage with the EU ETS
[...] The linkage of the Swiss ETS and the EU ETS, however, is likely to have only a limited overall impact for most operators, said Julien Dufour, CEO of Paris-based VerifAvia, as most operators flying to Switzerland are already in the EU scheme and fly there on a marginal basis.
Those that will face a significant change, he said, are likely to be Swiss International Air Lines, which will have all its domestic and international flights to non-EU states included, and those Swiss commercial operators that are currently below the threshold or are operating domestic flights.
Dufour said it was not clear why the Swiss authorities were asking all operators to report TK data. "With the EU ETS, the purpose of reporting TK data is to apply for free allowances, which is optional," he explained. "Operators already in the EU ETS have already reported their TKs in 2010 on all flights between Switzerland and the EU/EEA states and have received their free allowances."
He is hopeful that for operators the rules applying to the Swiss ETS will be the same as for the EU ETS and the process of adding Switzerland will be the same as that applying to non-EU EEA states such as Croatia, which will join the EU ETS in 2014. [...]

Rambo IV
Rambo III (also known as First Blood Part III) is a 1988 American action film starring Sylvester Stallone as John Rambo when he goes to rescue his longtime friend and mentor Colonel Sam Trautman from a Soviet prison camp in Afghanistan. It was Richard Crenna's last appearance in a Rambo film, that is, not counting the parody, Hot Shots! Part Deux.
Plot Edit
The film opens with Colonel Sam Trautman (Richard Crenna) returning to Bangkok, Thailand (where Rambo left to at the end of the second film) to once again enlist the help of Vietnam veteran John J. Rambo (Sylvester Stallone). Trautman sees Rambo stick fighting in a warehouse; a fight which he wins, although visibly having a sort of traumatic flashback while doing so. Rambo leaves before Trautman can talk to him, although he sees Rambo give the money he earned to some Buddhist monks. The following day, Trautman trails Rambo to a Buddhist Monastery where he lives, fixing things. There, Trautman visits the construction site of the temple Rambo is helping to build and asks Rambo to join him on a mission to Afghanistan. The mission is meant to supply weapons, including FIM 92-A Stinger missiles, to Afghan freedom fighters, the Mujahideen, who are fighting the Soviets in the Soviet-Afghan War. Despite showing him photos of civilians suffering under Soviet military intervention, Rambo refuses, expressing disillusionment with war and claiming that if he goes in, it won't make a difference, since it didn't before. Those are views Rambo will hold almost 30 years later. Rambo claims that here he can belong to something and lead a peaceful life. Trautman tells Rambo that he must come full circle and realize that he is a warrior and will always be tearing away at himself unless he realizes that and does what he does best. Rambo is unmoved and Trautman chooses to go in on his own. While in Afghanistan, Trautman's troops are ambushed by Soviet troops while passing through the mountains at night.
Trautman is imprisoned in a Soviet base and coerced for information by Colonel Zaysen (Marc de Jonge) and his henchman Kourov (Randy Raney). Rambo learns of the incident from embassy field officer Robert Griggs (Kurtwood Smith) and convinces Griggs to take him through an unofficial operation, despite his warning that the US government will deny any knowledge of his actions if killed or caught. Rambo immediately flies to Pakistan where he meets up with Mousa (Sasson Gabai), a weapons supplier who agrees to take him to a village deep in the Afghan desert, The Mujahideen in the village are already hesitant to help Rambo in the first place, but decide not to help him when their village is attacked by Soviet helicopters after one of Mousa's shop assistants has informed to the Soviets. Aided only by Mousa and a young boy named Hamid (Doudi Shoua), Rambo makes his way to the Soviet base and attempts to free Trautman. The first attempt is unsuccessful and results not only in Hamid getting shot in the leg, but also in Rambo himself getting a piece of shrapnel through his stomach. Rambo sends Hamid and Mousa away back to the camp while he pushes the shrapnel out and then disenfects the wound before cutting the bullet off of an AK-47 round and emptying the gunpowder from the shell into the wound. Rambo then lights the gunpowder, cauterizing the wound.
The next day, Rambo returns to the base once again, just in time to rescue Trautman from being tortured with a blow-torch. After rescuing several other prisoners, Rambo steals a helicopter and escapes from the base. However, the helicopter soon crashes and Rambo and Trautman are forced to continue on foot. After a confrontation in a cave, where Rambo and Trautman kill several Russian soldiers including Kourov, they are confronted by an entire army of Russian tanks, headed by Zaysen. Just as they are about to be overwhelmed by the might of the Soviet Army, the Mujahideen warriors, together with Mousa and Hamid, ride onto the battlefield by the hundreds in an thunderously awe-inspiring cavalry charge. In the ensuing battle, in which both Trautman and John are wounded, Rambo manages to kill Zaysen by driving a tank into the helicopter Zaysen is flying in. At the end of the battle Rambo and Trautman say goodbye to their Mujahideen friends and leave Afghanistan to go home.
David Morell, author of First Blood the novel the first Rambo film is based on, wrote a novelization.
Production Edit
The logo for Rambo III.
The movie was shot mainly in Thailand and Israel. The scene in the Buddhist monastery was shot in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Some scenes were filmed in Bangkok, Thailand while others were shot in Eilat, Jaffa and Tel Aviv, Israel. The Afghan market scene was a decorated set in Peshawar, Pakistan, where the scene took place. The film was nearing completion when the film was forced to remove from Israel to film, instead resorting to filming the ending scenes at the Fort Yuma Indian Reservation in Yuma, Arizona in America. This led to the loss of authentic Soviet and Afghan weaponry.
Original director Russell Mulcahy was replaced after two weeks of filming by Peter MacDonald due to creative differences. Three cinematographers (directors of photography) also succeeded. The character Masoud (Spiros Focas) is a reference to Ahmad Shah Masoud, a real-life leader of the Afghani resistance against the Russian occupation, minister of defense of Afghanistan (after the Russian occupation ended) and later again a leader of the resistance, this time against the Taliban regime.
The original VHS release had in the end credits: "Dedicated to the brave Mujahideen fighters", although this was later changed to "Dedicated to the gallant people of Afghanistan."
The 1990 Guinness World Records deemed Rambo III the most violent film ever made, with 221 acts of violence, at least 70 explosions, and over 108 characters killed on-screen. However, the body count of the fourth film in the series, Rambo, surpassed that record, with 236 kills. The Mi-24 Hind-D helicopters seen in the film are in fact modified Aérospatiale SA 330 Puma transport helicopters with fabricated bolt-on wings similar to the real Hind-Ds which were mainly used in the former Soviert bloc nations. The other helicopter depicted is a slightly reshaped Aérospatiale Gazelle.
The film's extensive score was composed by Jerry Goldsmith, although the full version was not used. However, on the soundtrack, it was restored to its normal length.
Reception Edit
Rambo III ultimate edition DVD.
The film, although a box office success, was panned by critics and often viewed as a disappointment. Fans did not find it as well-paced or riveting as its predecessor, and most consider it the weakest film in the series. Although fans still liked the film, they felt it was significantly weaker than its predecessor and didn't enjoy it quite as much, although fans would later applaud the next sequel, Rambo IV, which came out in 2008. Rambo III is almost unanimously regarded as the most outrageous or stereotypical film in the series, but fans still like the film.
It scored a 36% 'rotten' rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 28 reviews. Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert of the Chicago Tribune were split on Rambo III. Siskel awarded it the 'thumbs up', and Ebert gave it the 'thumbs down' to those expecting more from the film, although he did recommend the film to fans, saying that the film was entertaining and 'delivers the goods'. The New York Times gave a negative review of the film.
Rambo III opened in the US on May 25, 1988 at 2,562 theatres on Memorial Day weekend. Overall in the US, the movie grossed $53,715,611 million and then took $135,300,000 million internationally, giving it a box office total of $189,015,611 million.
At the time of its release, Rambo III was the most expensive film ever made, with a $63 million budget.
Reaction and Controversy Edit
Comparison of the dedication title cards at the ending of Rambo III.
Public reaction to how the Soviets were portrayed as the evil villains and the Mujahideen portrayed as the angelic protagonists received some public backlash. Some political experts state that, despite the Soviet's atrocities, they would have stabilized Afghanistan had the CIA not assisted the Mujahideen.
However, other commentators like the LA Times' Ernest Connie, point out that there was a lack of public outrage at Soviet war crimes committed against the Afghan people.
Connie wrote:
"..., there is never an excuse for the calculated, deliberate massacre of civilian non-combatants as a matter of policy. ...Yet the world seems hardly to notice (or care) that Soviets and their supporters are committing the same kind of deliberate atrocities in Afghanistan."
Connie also cites two human rights reports that conclude that the Soviets were using terror against civilians as major strategy stating that "The killing of innocent people isn't a byproduct of the strategy, but its very heart."
It is worth noting that it was the conquest and war crimes committed against Afghans that led to the formation of the Mujahadeen.
However, a Mujahideen's victory meant that the political unrest in the middle east would snowball into various other conflicts, including the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan. But other commentators would say that such extremism would never had taken place if the Soviets didn't start the conflict in the first place.
The current US led NATO action is winding down with an uncertain outcome. The stereotypes in Rambo III are generally regarded as the most inaccurate in the entire series, and as a result, is often parodied.
The title card at the end of the film, which stated that the film was dedicated to the "brave Mujahideen fighters of Afghanistan" received great controversy after 9/11 because some Mujahideen groups assisted Al Qaeda, so it was changed to "dedicated to the gallant people of Afghanistan".
However, the Mujahideen that was praised in the movie in 1988, are not the same Mujahideen in post 9/11 Afghanistan; since the group was politically split and entered a period of civil war, after the Soviet occupiers were expelled in 1989.

View Full Version : SOLVED Remote flash bracket for £2.03 shipped!
Mine has arrived and it's very good quality anodised black aluminium.
Rubber pad grips camera well.
Could do with a rubber washer under the bracket to stop tripod knob marking anodising when tightened, but other than that a great little cheapie!
The center pin of the flash foot decends into the hole in the middle of the shoe, efectively locking the gun to the shoe.
I've sent them a message, had a reply and I'm awaiting the out come.
Same here, but if a chamfer is cut into the shoe so that there isn't a hard edge to retain the pin, then it would work OK. If this is jammed on too, then there are other suppliers of blank flash hot shoe mounts to replace it.
The supplier has said they will send me a replacement, so just need to see if it turns up. I'll probably just fill the hole with a small plug of plastic or Araldite. I have a PC Skt hot shoe with a 1/4W hole in the base that will serve as a replacement, so not too much of an issue.
My FL-36R came off without too much of a struggle but I'll have a look at what you've reported and maybe fill any hole too!
Just created a little chamfer with a pair of scissors and now the flash comes off perfectly. Took 30 seconds!
