Ignorant Critics
It's easier to be a critic than to do it yourself.
Top 10 Films of 2007
Posted in Movies at 3:39 am by Calico Jack
I'll be the first one to admit that I'm not terribly fond of numerical lists — not in film criticism, at least. It seems rather insulting to ask someone who's spent an entire year watching, dissecting, and discussing films to take those collected experiences and write a small paragraph for each of his or her favorites, as long as those favorites number exactly ten — no more, no fewer. Even more egregious is wanting a numerical ordering, as if one's preferences can be so easily digested: I liked this movie slightly less than three others this year, but more than everything else, and this much more than the one immediately preceding. Voilà! Now you have number four on the list. If you've only seen a dozen or two movies during the past twelve months, ranking films shouldn't be terribly difficult. But my unofficial count stands somewhere around 127 for the year, and picking and ordering the best from what I've seen is slightly more daunting.
The whole thing is an exercise in absurdity; but come December, nearly every critic dutifully produces his or her list to be analyzed and argued over. Some, like Tony Scott of the New York Times, manage to skirt around expectations and provide a fresh take on a rueful tradition. Others such as Roger Ebert carefully hew to reader expectations, but have quite a long list of other worthy films. And as much as I despise this practice of ranking movies, it won't be going away anytime soon. In the most positive light, it can be a way to encourage a critic's audience to watch movies that they might not otherwise bother to check out, since appearing on a top-ten list is a sign that the film is well worth seeing. It's simply a byproduct of living in a sound-byte era, where many prefer their news and opinions given in small, easily-digestible chunks. And I must admit that compiling a list such as this is quite enjoyable, regardless of what my inner critic distastefully recoils against.
There are two caveats before I begin: First, all of the movies featured have had a U.S. theatrical release in 2007. Several were shown overseas last year before coming to the States, but I have to draw the line somewhere. And secondly, if you ask me whether these are my favorite films of the year or the ones I consider "best," my answer is both. It sounds disingenuous, but there you have it. It's nearly impossible to describe what happens after viewing a film that expertly combines technical mastery (direction, cinematography, sound editing) and human emotion (screenplay, acting, scoring) into one great experience. Even the categories I listed just now aren't nearly complete; and can in fact be detrimental if relied on too heavily while critiquing a film. Movies are often something greater (or less) than the sum of their parts, and those in the list that follows are the ones that holistically affected me the most.
10. "Ratatouille"
Pixar's most recent film is also one of its best, surpassing even the excellence seen in "Toy Story" or "A Bug's Life." It might be a slight to call director Brad Bird an auteur of animated films for writing and directing both "The Incredibles" and "Ratatouille," because his latest work deserves to be recognized on the same level as anything else released in 2007. Endlessly inventive and visually lavish, "Ratatouille" has some of the most beautifully depicted vistas put on film this year. It also contains a few gentle but well-aimed jabs at the insularity of jaded critics, urging them to remember that love and passion for one's work are just as important as technical merit. And the story of a rat who reaches for excellence, even when his friends and family are content to settle for mediocrity, will inspire those both young and old.
9. "The Wind That Shakes the Barley"
This searing, gorgeously shot period piece set during the Irish War of Independence in the early 1920s was glaringly overlooked by audiences when it reached American theaters back in March. As rural Irish brothers fighting first against the British, then against each other, Cillian Murphy and Padraic Delaney give two powerful performances in this tale of a family tragically divided by differing views on the nature and obligations of freedom. Directed by Ken Loach, "The Wind That Shakes the Barley" never shies away from depicting war in all of its brutality; but its focus lies elsewhere, demanding that the viewer consider not only why ordinary citizens decide to take up arms and give their lives for their country, but also how difficult it can be to stop the cycle of violence once supposed peace is achieved.
8. "The Bourne Ultimatum"
The kinetic third installment of the Jason Bourne trilogy is also the best action movie of the year. This series has grown steadily better with each film, and "The Bourne Ultimatum" ends the titular hero's quest with a knockout punch to the audience's jaw. As Matt Damon violently dispatches his enemies while searching for the truth behind his training as an assassin, director Paul Greengrass ensures that the audience feels every punch and every hit through frantic editing and jarring camera cuts. Jason Bourne is shown as increasingly haunted as the film progresses, sunken eyes set deeply into a hollow face and a tangible air of exhaustion hanging over his every gesture. But when Bourne needs to go into action, so does the film — pulse-pounding car chases, intelligent characters and wincingly visceral fights provide more thrills than any other blockbuster this year. Yet the biggest strength of "The Bourne Ultimatum" lies in its scriptwriting, which never relies on exposition to propel its complicated plot forward but instead prefers its revelations to come through the eyes of Bourne himself.
The World War II-era Ian McEwan novel about class divisions and betrayal from whence this movie is adapted might, on first glance, seem nearly unfilmable. So much of the drama and emotion that defines the story comes not from conversation or action but from inner thoughts and, more importantly, misinterpretations of other characters' motives. It is an astounding relief to discover that with "Pride & Prejudice" director Joe Wright at the helm, virtually all of the thematic elements of McEwan's novel are preserved whole and unblemished. "Atonement" is a study of the repercussions of a young girl's impetuosity and thoughtlessness, and how one single action can destroy the happiness in the lives of everyone it affects. Wright is a master at highlighting the struggles of his characters through lush cinematography and careful focus on body language, and a wonderful score by Dario Marianelli serves as a subtle foreshadowing to the events that lie ahead for the film's characters. There are two scenes in this film that any movie would kill to have: an epic, minutes-long tracking shot of the British evacuation at Dunkirk, and a powerful coda that that asks whether one can ever truly atone for long-ago sins.
6. "Juno"
First-time screenwriter Diablo Cody penned this witty, heartwarming tale about a sixteen-year-old girl who finds herself pregnant after a one-night stand with her best friend. Ellen Page is a marvel as the titular character, who shows a surprising level of maturity when faced with a difficult choice but isn't quite as smart about the larger world as she thinks she is. After deciding to give her baby up for adoption, Juno forms a tentative relationship with the prospective parents, a yuppie couple fantastically played by Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman. Much of what makes "Juno" such a treasure lies not with its hilarious, quirky hipster dialogue but the way this film lets its characters develop from beginning to end, leading to quite a change in how the audience views several characters' actions. "Juno" expertly mixes hearty laughs with touching observations, and it well deserves its place as best comedy of the year.
5. "The Lookout"
This gem of a film was released back in April and never quite gained the traction it needed to seep into audiences' consciousness. Joseph Gordon-Levitt has a star-making role as Chris, a former high school jock who suffers perpetual short-term amnesia after being responsible for a tragic accident. Years later he's rooming with a sarcastic blind sage played by Jeff Daniels in one of the strongest performances of his career. Chris is still trying to adjust to his changed life when he meets a ready friend and seemingly helpful buddy in Matthew Goode; but like so much else in "The Lookout," everything is not as it seems. To say any more would give away too much of the plot, but know that writer-director Scott Frank has crafted an utterly absorbing, unpredictable character study masquerading as a thriller, aided by some of the strongest dialogue of any film this year.
4. "Zodiac"
Unlike so many other procedurals that rely on quick crime-solving and tidy confessions to give an audience a sense of resolution, "Zodiac" focuses instead on the relentless and deadening efforts of those tasked with solving the series of brutal murders that occurred in the San Fransisco area during the late 1960s and early 1970s. It isn't a film driven by suspense but by obsession: obsession with details, obsession with geographical places, obsession with chronology and time. Each scene in "Zodiac" is carefully timecoded in order that the audience knows exactly how everything fits together, how each scene plays off of the one preceding and sets up the one to follow. It is also merciless in showing how even the most experienced of police officers and reporters can become so overwhelmed with details — murder scenes, aisles of evidence boxes piled on top of each other, eyewitness accounts, innumerable phone tips, handwriting samples, the killer's own coded messages — that even with thousands of individual points of data, assembling those pieces into a coherent whole becomes nearly impossible. David Fincher has directed the best work of his career with "Zodiac," a film which reminds the viewer that tidy closure is something oft found only in the movies.
3. "Once"
It will be very difficult to overpraise this small, low-budget Irish musical, but I'm going to give it my best shot. "Once" is set in Dublin over the course of just a few days, where street busker meets a Czech immigrant working as a flower seller. The two forge an instant bond, and together they produce some hauntingly beautiful music together. This film has been billed as a romance, but it's a marketing mistake: any romance in "Once" is far purer and much less sexual than the meaning behind the term today. Both characters remain unnamed to signify the ordinariness of the situation they find themselves in, and it also helps to keep the focus on the achingly tender songs that they perform. Unlike most musicals, the songs in "Once" flow naturally in and out of the dialogue; they never feel forced or misplaced. In fact, nothing about this film ever strikes a false note; even the ending could have gone so many different, lesser ways, but the one shown is absolutely perfect. This is a film that deserves every positive adjective that can be given; it's inspiring, heartfelt, charming, sweet without being cloying, and utterly uplifting.
2. "Das Leben Der Anderen" (The Lives of Others)
This film won the 2006 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film by narrowly beating out the superb "Pan's Labyrinth," which was my top film of last year. But due to a February release date in the United States, I'm able to put this moving and profound film on the list this year. "The Lives of Others" is a cautionary tale set in Berlin before the end of the Cold War, when the East German government kept careful watch on its citizens deemed most likely to fall prey to the dangers of free thought and capitalism and no one was immune from state scrutiny, especially not those of the artistic class. There are two central characters in "The Lives of Others": one a socialist playwright, Georg Dreyman, who outwardly espouses all of the necessary ideals for staying in the good graces of the ruling class while secretly harboring revolutionary ideals; and the other a career Stasi officer assigned to surveil Dreyman after a corrupt bureaucrat decides he wants to have Dreyman's actress girlfriend for himself. The two characters are never seen on-screen together, but it is the choices that they both make — and the reasons behind them — that give this film such an enormous emotional punch. As Captain Gerd Wiesler, Ulrich Mühe gives a deceptively minimalist performance, barely revealing any emotion save for quick, slight facial adjustments. It is a classic study in understatement, essential for showing the growing humanization of his character; while he continues to spy on Dreyman and his friends and family, he gradually starts to understand how corrupt the current political system is. "The Lives of Others" is a powerful indictment of the repressive political system that was so cancerous to eastern Europe in the latter half of the 20th century, serving as a sobering reminder that even today, we must be vigilant against internal threats to our freedom. And the moving final scene of this film is one of the best of the decade.
1. "No Country for Old Men"
There really wasn't any difficulty in deciding which movie should be my top pick for best film of 2007. This adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's sparse novel is both a mastery of filmmaking and the most haunting, engrossing film of the year. I find myself pondering this film weeks after seeing it for a second time; its images and statements about human nature and the futility of fighting Death are indelibly etched on this critic's brain. Joel and Ethan Coen have directed a stark, meticulously crafted film that plays out like a fascinating, unnerving West Texas chase thriller before transforming into something more existential in the third act. "No Country for Old Men" may well be the most unpredictable film of the year for reasons for which I will not describe here, but every single twist and turn is all-consuming. Josh Brolin plays a machinist who stumbles upon $2 million in a suitcase after a drug exchange turned sour in the desert, and Javier Bardem is utterly terrifying as Anton Chigurh, an implacable killer hired to recover the cash regardless of who gets in his way. Tommy Lee Jones gives his most world-weary performance as Sheriff Ed Tom Bell, a longtime Texas lawman unable to cope with the increasing brutality and random violence of the world around him. These three men circle around each other for much of the film, each with his own way of looking at the world but never quite able to prepare for that which does not fit neatly into their patterned lives. It isn't until the end of the second act that "No Country for Old Men" fully embraces its allegorical leanings with an unexpected twist that questions much of what has come before. And the final act's coda is reliant on two scenes that utterly frustrated many in the theater, but which I think are absolutely essential for understanding the film as a whole. "No Country for Old Men" is utterly magnificant, with powerful performances and lyrical dialogue that has so much meaning beyond the mere words spoken — a bleak, sober masterpiece that should be regarded as one of the great films of the last thirty years.
This was a very strong year for cinema, and I have at least ten other films that deserve honorable mentions on the list — but that will have to wait for its own entry. Also, there are still several films I haven't been able to catch yet, most notably "There Will Be Blood." But the previous ten films are my picks for best of the year, and each is well worth your time. "Ratatouille," "The Wind That Shakes the Barley," "The Bourne Ultimatum," "The Lookout," "Zodiac," "Once," and "The Lives of Others" are all available on DVD now.
Artist Discovery: Battles
Posted in Music at 2:11 pm by Calico Jack
Perhaps this is a tentative step back into blogging after yet another hiatus. Either way, the single "Atlas" from Battles' LP Mirrored is one of those songs that I suspect a lot of people simply won't grok, for lack of a better term. It's prog-rock at its most rhythmic, with a pulsing drum that accentuates…oh, just watch it yourself:
I can understand how off-putting it might be to those trained on top-40 blandness. For sheer exuberance and stomp-along thrill, however, it has my vote as single of the year. It's as addictive as my favorite song from last year, Kasabian's "Shoot the Runner":

Defense fails Heat again in 103-87 loss to Grizzlies
By Shandel Richardson and By Shandel Richardson
| MEMPHIS
Sunday was a night to remember for the Grizzlies, another to forget for the Heat. (Nelson Chenault / USA Today Sports)
Before the game, Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra described it as the "moment of truth."
It was a play or stretch during a game that ultimately decides if the Heat were to win or lose. And once again, they failed when it came time to steal a victory. The Heat lost 103-87 to the Memphis Grizzlies Sunday at FedEx Forum, pushing their losing streak to four straight.
"Those are the times that you really need to buckle down and just get one stop," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "Especially with an opponent's building, you get two or three, four stops in a row to take a little pressure off yourself on the other end. We just couldn't get those stops to get us over the hump to possibly gets us a miscellaneous, easy [basket], maybe in the open court. Every time they (Memphis) needed to make a momentum-swing shot, they did."
As the case in most Heat games, the moment was theirs for the taking.
Instead, they let it slip away.

The Heat went from potentially upsetting one of the top teams in the Western Conference to again answering questions about their ability to close. With 10:02 left in the game, it appeared they would finally have a breakthrough.
They rallied from a 15-poiint deficit to pull to within 82-79 on a breakaway dunk by guard Dwyane Wade with 10:02 remaining. After a defensive stop, Wade missed an off-balanced jumper. The Grizzlies then went on an 11-2 run to put things away.
Another opportunity presented.
Another opportunity blown.
"Obviously, you would love to get some of those moments back," Wade said. "It was just a couple of bad possessions. The team made us pay for it. I thought we did what we needed to do gameplan-wise as much as we could. They hit some shots against what we wanted to do."
Wade did all he could by scoring 25 points on 11 of 20 shooting. Josh McRoberts had 14 points, five rebounds and five assists while Luol Deng finished with 13 points. Reserve guard Jon Leuer led five Grizzlies in double-figures with 20 points. Memphis surprisingly went away from leading-scorer Marc Gasol, who finished with just two points on six shots.

"That what makes them great," Wade said. "You come in with a game plan and they beat you with other ways."
The latest setback came after the Heat received a bit of good news before tip-off when they announced Norris Cole, Deng, and McRoberts were in the starting lineup. Deng was back after missing one game due to a sprained wrist. Cole missed two games because of an illness and a similar ailment threatened to affect McRoberts.
The sickness bug also hit Danny Granger before Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Like Granger, McRoberts was able to play through it.
The rash of illnesses prompted Spoelstra to candidly say the team carries around hand sanitizer to prevent these types of ailments from spreading throughout the locker room.
Now, if they could only find a product that disinfects poor defense. It was yet another game full of defensive breakdowns, leaving most of the responsibility on the offense. During the losing streak, every opponent has shot at least 50 percent from the field.
The Grizzlies made it look far too easy, scoring at will. They shot 58 percent, including 8 of13 from the 3-point arc. At one point, all Wade and center Chris Bosh could do was laugh in disbelief as they walked off the court during a timeout after Grizzlies guard Courtney Lee hit a 3-pointer with the shot-clock winding down.

"Even if we do take the lead or even if it's a close game, you're probably going to lose more games than you're going to win if you give up 55-plus percent shooting," Bosh said. "This is a constant basis with this team. We have to bring that number down a lot if we expect to win."

Heat forward Chris Andersen missed his sixth straight due to a high ankle sprain but could return before the end of the road trip.
Andersen said his ankle will be re-evaluated within the next four days. He's yet to participate in contact drills. The Heat will worry about the issue when the time arrives.
"Right now, with all due respect to Bird, we love the fact that he's on the road trip, that he's working," Spoelstra said. "He's probably ahead of schedule but we're not even thinking about him."

In Madison, Wis., on Wednesday, 10,000 people show up to rally for long-shot presidential candidate Bernie Sanders — giving the self-declared "democratic socialist" the largest crowd any candidate has had in this election cycle. Sanders, running on a shoestring and a prayer, has closed to within single digits of Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire and is surging in Iowa.
In New York on Tuesday, populist Mayor Bill de Blasio lashes out in vitriolic terms at New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a a fellow Democrat, accusing him of "games" and politically motivated "revenge." De Blasio and other Democrats blast Cuomo's handling of housing, immigration, the minimum wage and education.
In Washington last month, an overwhelming majority of Democrats — 158 of 186 in the House and 31 of 44 in the Senate — oppose President Obama on free-trade legislation. Obama prevails in the vote after failing in a similar vote earlier in the month, but the episode leaves the president attempting to repair a deep rift with his fellow Democrats by championing overtime rules favored by unions.
These are not isolated events. Together, they show anew how the populist movement is ascendant within the Democratic Party, and they confirm that the balance of power has shifted. Clinton, who reports raising $45 million since launching her campaign in April, will almost certainly beat the upstart 73-year-old with the crazy white hair. Obama won on trade. But Clinton and Obama are, to borrow a favorite phrase of the president, on the wrong side of history. As I've noted, the country is trending in a more liberal direction, and a growing proportion of Democrats are hard-core liberals.
There are various causes, but the change is likely in part a reaction to the tea party and to the Republican Party's swing to the right. Democrats so far have shown less inclination to eat their own, but there is a real possibility that intraparty fratricide will break out if Clinton and the rest of the Democratic establishment don't co-opt the rising populist movement. In New York, for example, there is already talk of a liberal primary challenge to Cuomo if he chooses to run again in 2018.
That the Sanders campaign has caught fire is a surprise to just about everybody, not least the candidate himself, who had his doubts. The Brooklyn-born Vermonter with a didactic style lacks the fire and charisma of Elizabeth Warren, who chose not to run. But his call for huge infrastructure spending and taxing the rich has caught the moment just right, even if Sanders himself is an imperfect vessel.
In May, Clinton had a 31-point lead in New Hampshire over her nearest potential Democratic competitor in the WMUR/CNN poll; now she leads Sanders by only eight points, which because of the poll's methodology is a statistical tie. In Iowa, likewise, Clinton had a 45-point lead over Sanders in May, according to a Quinnipiac University poll. Now her lead has shrunk to 19 points.
The populist pushback that propels Sanders's unexpected success also can be seen in the incendiary remarks of New York's top populist, de Blasio, who took the extraordinary step of calling journalists to City Hall to denounce the governor. He called Cuomo's actions "not anything like acceptable government practice," according to the New York Times.
At the heart of the criticism is a sense that Cuomo, though the son of the late liberal lion Mario Cuomo, was insufficiently pure in his ideology and too willing to strike deals with Republicans. Several New York liberals have begun rumbles of a primary challenge to Cuomo — an effort that would be like the conservative efforts to purge the Republican Party of RINOs (Republicans in Name Only) in recent elections.
Obama, too, has been upended by the populist wave. Though he eventually prevailed in the "fast-track" trade vote, he had nothing like the support Bill Clinton got when he pushed through the North American Free Trade Agreement with half of Senate Democrats and 40 percent of House Democrats. Liberals called that a victory. "This isn't 1993, and this is not Bill Clinton's Democratic Party," Rep. Rosa DeLauro (Conn.), who led Democratic opposition in the House, wrote in the Huffington Post on Thursday.
Bill Clinton reshaped the party with moderate "New Democrats," but the new New Democrats look more like the old. Hillary Clinton, notably, sided with liberals on the trade legislation, which is smart: If she doesn't want to get trampled by populists on the march, she'll need to grab a baton and pretend to be the drum major.

Madison West appears on Peter Quincy's doorstep as expected, when her husband, Charlie, disappears. Peter had been her husband's best man and had promised to take care of Madison if something happened to him. Neither Madison nor Peter are what they seem, but will their lies to each other to save the world, instead fail to save them from each other?
"He just has to help me," she said to no one. Because no one occupied the alley.
Until a man rounded the corner.
The way the man slammed into her, she knew it wasn't an accident.
He could have gone around her, but he didn't. She turned to give him a good Jersey Girl dressing down, when he grabbed her arm. He jerked her close. She looked up into deep-set eyes that held no soul.
The snarky retort died on her lips.
"We want the package, Madison."
Holy crap. How did he know her name? How did he know about the package? Her heart jumped into her throat. She yanked on her arm, looking around hoping for witnesses.
No one else walked this stretch of the sidewalk. Odd since it was lunchtime. Maybe this man made this happen. His blocking of the road meant power.
Turning back to him, she asked, "What package?"
Madison wanted to snarl at him, but she needed to play the innocent so she shuddered.
"The one your husband sent you," in a voice that spoke of years of cigarette use.
"I don't have any package." Her words tumbled over themselves as he gripped her tighter. His hot, spicy breath wrinkled her nose.
"We know it arrived. You have it. We want it."
What the hell was Charlie into? Why did he send her that package? Damn him. She would like to give Charlie a nice roundhouse kick, but she after she dealt with this asshole.
"Uh, I don't have it."
"Yes, you do."
The strongest character in the book is Q. His character was fully developed and for the most part you got to know him and his back story. Maddy's story was all over the place. I was a bit confused with what was going on with her honestly. I wish the author would have spent more time on Q's history and how he ended up where he was and why. The ending was kind of abrupt, threw me off guard a bit but I was happy at the resolution between Maddy and Q even though I really don't think she deserves him lol. I'm also itching to know who Harv really was? He seemed like a character that needed more backstory. It was a good start and I think with a little tweaking it can be a fabulous story. The premise is fantastic.
Chris Redding lives in New Jersey with her husband, two sons, one dog and three rabbits. She graduated from Penn State with a degree in journalism. When she isn't writing, she works for her local hospital. Her books are filled with romance, suspense and thrills.

All it takes is a particular customer request to get us thinking. After all, it's the customers who buy and use the pens, so they should know what they want! One client asked for something that was both tiny and handy to use, genuinely small enough for any pocket or purse, but which behaved and felt like a full-sized writing instrument when in use. So we came up with GNOMO.
Italian for, yes, "gnome", the new GNOMO is a retractable fountain pen that measures only 8cm – that's a teensy-weensy 31⁄4 in – when closed! The mechanism is, if we say so ourselves, ingenious.
By twisting it outward, turning the nib junction the other way around and screwing it back into the barrel, you have a full-size, fully-functional, feverishly fantastic, fabulously fun fountain pen!
GNOMO is made with a main barrel of celluloid offered in three different colours: Yellow, Red and Charcoal Black.
All metal fittings are made of Sterling Silver, personalised with a tweed laser-carving, which adds a cool, vintage look to the pen.
is made in 18k Gold.
Strictly available as a Limited Edition of only 1000 units each of the three stunning celluloid colours, every GNOMO pen comes in charming matchbox-like wooden packaging – including a cuddly, furry pen-pouch for protection.

ABB taps Tigo for MLPE solution across its residential inverter range
The Swiss power electronics giant has announced that its UNO-DM-PLUS string inverters are now operationally compatible with Tigo's DC optimization technology, which also offers module-level monitoring and rapid shutdown capability.

The ABB collaboration and partnership with Tigo will deliver new interoperability for PV inverters across residential systems globally.

Switzerland-headquartered power electronics firm, ABB, which is the world's fourth-largest supplier of solar PV inverters, according to GTM Research data, has today announced a new collaboration with DC power optimizer technology provider Tigo.
Tigo has already partnered with a number of leading solar module suppliers to embed its DC power optimizers on solar panels intended for residential installations. This new collaboration means that ABB's residential string inverter range, the UNO-DM-PLUS, now boasts operational compatibility with Tigo's technology – a partnership that could open up a range of new market avenues and possibilities for ABB.
Specifically, Tigo's TS4 optimizer platform can now combine with the ABB residential inverter to offer flexible and scalable solutions that bring three specific additional values for home solar arrays.
These include the ability to monitor the energy harvest at a module, rather than string level, delivering greater visibility of a system's performance in two-second increments, thus enabling system owners to maximize the solar uptime and accurately and quickly identify performance issues.
The solar modules are also optimized at the DC level with the Tigo TS4, and thus can produce more energy per module while enabling more design flexibility on rooftops that may be partially shaded at various times during the day.
Thirdly, such module-level control also brings rapid shutdown capabilities, enabling ABB to meet the new U.S. safety regulations stipulated under the National Electric Code (NEC) 2017. As a result of this collaboration, ABB may now be able to pursue increased market share in the U.S. residential rooftop inverter space – a space so far dominated by Israeli inverter and DC optimizer provider, SolarEdge.
For ABB, compatibility with Tigo's technology helps the company to broaden its potential market reach without the complications and expense associated with developing their own DC optimizer solution. "Our customers now have the enhanced value from MLPE while using our best-in-class string inverters," said ABB's global product manager Giacomo Bambi. "We are excited to welcome Tigo as a global partner."
Cormac Gilligan, senior solar analyst at IHS Markit, told pv magazine that the partnership with Tigo is a nice complement to ABB's existing residential portfolio. "It will allow ABB to serve its customers who need to meet more challenging grid codes globally as well as stringent regulations such as NEC 2017 in the U.S. and Rule 21 in California," Gilligan said.
"Furthermore," he added, "it will allow ABB to compete effectively with other suppliers who have their own existing microinverter or power optimizer solution such as Sunpower, Enphase, AP Systems, SolarEdge or Huawei, as well as suppliers who partnered with module level power electronic (MLPE) partners such as SMA."
Gilligan added that IHS Markit is expecting competition in the MLPE landscape to intensify this year due to the growing number of suppliers that have developed such a solution, as well as those firms – like Sungrow – that are expected to follow suit.
For Tigo, the collaboration is an additional strong partnership with a 'Tier-1 player' in the solar inverter space. Tigo already collaborates closely with German inverter giant SMA, having sold a 27% share in the company to SMA in 2016.

James Henry Neidhart (February 8, 1955 – August 13, 2018) was an American professional wrestler known for his appearances in the 1980s and 1990s in the World Wrestling Federation as Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, where he was a two-time WWF Tag Team Champion with his real-life brother-in-law Bret Hart in The Hart Foundation. He also won titles in Stampede Wrestling, Championship Wrestling from Florida, Mid-South Wrestling, Memphis Championship Wrestling and the Mid-Eastern Wrestling Federation. He was part of the Hart wrestling family through marriage to his wife Ellie Hart, teaming with various members throughout his career, and appearing with his daughter Natalya Neidhart on the reality television show Total Divas.

Early life
At Newport Harbor High School, Neidhart first gained athletic acclaim for his success in strength-oriented track and field events. He set a California high school record in shot put in 1973 which stood until 1985. After graduating from high school, Neidhart pursued a career in the National Football League (NFL), where he played for the Oakland Raiders and Dallas Cowboys in practices and preseason games.

Professional wrestling career

Early career (1978–1985)
Following his release from the Dallas Cowboys, Neidhart traveled to Calgary to train with Stu Hart and pursue a career in professional wrestling. He worked for Hart's Stampede Wrestling from 1978 to 1983, and again in 1985, during which time he married Ellie Hart, one of Stu's daughters. He was a two-time Stampede International Tag Team Champion, with Hercules Ayala in 1980 and Mr. Hito in 1983. Stu Hart, seeking publicity for Neidhart, promised him $500 to enter and win an anvil toss at the Calgary Stampede. He did, throwing it 11 feet, 2 inches. This earned him the nickname "The Anvil", replacing his prior nickname, "The Animal".

In September 1981, Neidhart appeared in Germany with the Catch Wrestling Association, taking part in the World Catch Cup. From April to May 1982, Neidhart wrestled in Japan for New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) on its Big Fight Series tour as part of Stampede Wrestling's working relationship with NJPW. In January 1983, he made a second tour with NJPW, competing in its New Year Golden Series.

Neidhart teamed twice with King Kong Bundy for Georgia Championship Wrestling in November 1983. From September 1983 to February 1984, he worked for Mid-South Wrestling, where he and Butch Reed held the Mid-South Tag Team Championship for two and a half months. In March 1984, he made a third tour of Japan with NJPW. From April to August 1984, Neidhart worked for the Continental Wrestling Association. In August 1984, he moved to Championship Wrestling from Florida, winning the NWA Southern Heavyweight Championship and NWA United States Tag Team Championship. In January 1985, he left Florida to join the World Wrestling Federation.

World Wrestling Federation (1985–1992)

Hart Foundation (1985–1991)

When Stu Hart sold Stampede Wrestling to Vince McMahon, owner of the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), Neidhart and Bret Hart were included in the deal. Initially a singles wrestler, managed by Mr. Fuji, Neidhart debuted on January 21, 1985, in Madison Square Garden, defeating Tony Garea. He wrestled Hart, who had a cowboy gimmick, to a draw twice. Bret, upset with his gimmick, suggested to McMahon that he form a tag team with Neidhart.

The new team was dubbed The Hart Foundation and was managed by Jimmy Hart (no relation to Bret). They made their pay-per-view debut at WrestleMania 2, where they were the last two eliminated from a 20-man battle royal by André the Giant. The Hart Foundation won their first WWF World Tag Team Championship on the February 7, 1987, episode of WWF Superstars (taped January 26) from The British Bulldogs (Davey Boy Smith and The Dynamite Kid), with the help of referee Danny Davis, who was continually "distracted" by checking on Dynamite (laid out of the match early by a megaphone shot from Jimmy), allowing the challengers to double-team Smith. Davis was subsequently fired as referee and began wrestling, aligned with The Hart Foundation. They lost the titles on the November 7 episode of Prime Time Wrestling (taped October 27), to Strike Force (Rick Martel and Tito Santana).

The Hart Foundation wrestled in another 20-man battle royal at WrestleMania IV. Bad News Brown attacked and eliminated Hart to win. Neidhart eventually joined Bret's side in the feud with Brown causing a rift between the team and manager Jimmy Hart. This led them to fire him and before starting a feud with The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers. In the fall of 1988, Jimmy Hart began managing the Rougeaus. The Hart Foundation unsuccessfully challenged Demolition (Ax and Smash) for the tag title at the 1988 SummerSlam, when Ax hit Hart with Jimmy Hart's megaphone for the pin (Hart accompanied Demolition's manager, Mr. Fuji, solely to further his feud with the challengers). The Hart Foundation continued feuding with Jimmy Hart's wrestlers for the next year, teaming with Jim Duggan to defeat Dino Bravo and The Rougeaus in a 2/3 falls match at the 1989 Royal Rumble, then defeating The Honky Tonk Man and Greg Valentine at WrestleMania V. In April 1989, both Hart Foundation members began wrestling singles matches at house shows. Neidhart also had a few shots at Ravishing Rick Rude's Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship in August.

The Hart Foundation reformed full-time in March 1990 in Las Vegas. At WrestleMania VI in Toronto, they defeated The Bolsheviks (Nikolai Volkoff and Boris Zhukov) in 19 seconds. They started a second feud with champions Demolition, who at this point added Crush. At SummerSlam 90 on August 27, The Hart Foundation won the title for a second time in a 2/3 falls match. On October 30, 1990, The Rockers (Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty) defeated The Hart Foundation in a two out of three falls match in Fort Wayne, Indiana, to seemingly win the title. During the match, the top rope broke by accident, and the match did not air on television. The Rockers defended the WWF Tag Team title against Power and Glory (Paul Roma and Hercules) on November 3, 1990. Shortly after November 3, the WWF decided to not air the title change and that the title would revert to the Hart Foundation. In his book, Shawn Michaels claims that the Hart Foundation had politicked to keep the title. The WWF has never officially recognized The Rockers' reign. The Hart Foundation soon reignited their feud with Jimmy Hart via his team, Rhythm and Blues (Honky Tonk and Valentine). Jimmy Hart once again cost The Hart Foundation the tag titles at WrestleMania VII, in a match with his new team, The Nasty Boys (Brian Knobs and Jerry Sags), when he distracted the referee, allowing Sags to knock out Neidhart with his motorcycle helmet. Hart and Neidhart again split up, though they reunited for a title rematch with The Nasty Boys on the July 29 Prime Time Wrestling, losing by disqualification when Bret hit both champions with a helmet, again introduced by Jimmy Hart. Neidhart also commentated on Wrestling Challenge alongside Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby Heenan from March until August 1991.

New Foundation (1991–1992)

Neidhart returned to WWF television on the November 9, 1991 episode of Superstars of Wrestling, donning new parachute pants with checkerboard designs. He suffered a loss to Ric Flair, who continued to apply his figure-four leglock after winning the match. While hobbling away to the back, Neidhart was attacked and further injured by the Beverly Brothers. This resulted in him being replaced in the 1991 Survivor Series by Sgt. Slaughter.

Neidhart returned once more on the December 1, 1991 episode of Wrestling Challenge, teaming with Owen Hart (Bret's younger brother) as the New Foundation, defeating the Executioners (Executioner #1 and Executioner #2). The New Foundation's highlight was a win over the Orient Express (Kato and Tanaka) at the January 1992 Royal Rumble. The team also had matches with the Beverly Brothers, the Nasty Boys, the Natural Disasters, and the Powers of Pain throughout late-1991 and early-1992, but had little success overall. The New Foundation wrestled their final match on February 15, 1992; Neidhart was fired the next day after refusing to take a drug test and throwing a television monitor backstage.

Various promotions (1992–1994)
After leaving the WWF in February 1992, Neidhart wrestled a handful of matches on the independent circuit, including two bouts for Eastern Championship Wrestling (ECW). Beginning in August 1992, he made three tours with New Japan Pro-Wrestling: The G1 Climax in August (losing in the first round to Kensuke Sasaki), the Super Grade Tag League II in October (teaming with Tom Zenk and finishing with 0 points) and Battle Final in December.

In February and March 1993, Neidhart wrestled in Australia for the "Wrestling Down Under" promotion, working three matches with Jake Roberts. In April 1993, Neidhart began wrestling for World Championship Wrestling (WCW), making his debut on the May 15 episode of WCW Worldwide, beating a jobber, Todd Zane. After defeating Mustapha Saed on the next episode, Neidhart teamed with Junkyard Dog for the next, again beating Chick Donovan and Rip Rogers. Neidhart and The Junkyard Dog beat Paul Orndorff and Dick Slater by disqualification on the June 5 WCW Saturday Night. Eleven days later, he beat Shanghai Pierce in a dark match before Clash of the Champions XXIII. After losing to Maxx Payne at a house show in Kokomo, Indiana, on October 7, Neidhart left WCW. On November 13, 1993, Neidhart wrestled The Sandman to a no contest at ECW's November to Remember in the ECW Arena. In December 1993, Neidhart promoted several shows in Florida under the banner "Anvil Promotions".

Throughout early 1994, Neidhart wrestled for various independent promotions. He returned to the World Wrestling Federation in June 1994.

World Wrestling Federation (1994)

Neidhart returned to the WWF at King of the Ring in 1994 as Bret Hart's cornerman for his WWF World Heavyweight Championship match defense against Intercontinental Champion Diesel. After Diesel hit Hart with his Jackknife finisher, Neidhart interfered to prevent the pin, and disqualifying Hart, but allowing him to retain the title. After the match, Diesel and Shawn Michaels beat down Hart, and Neidhart didn't intervene. Later that night, Neidhart reappeared at ringside again during Owen Hart's King of the Ring tournament final against Razor Ramon. He attacked Razor outside the ring, behind the referee's back, before Neidhart throwing Razor back for Hart to elbow drop and pin to become "The King of Harts", turning heel for the first time since 1988. Owen had been feuding with Bret since the Royal Rumble. Neidhart, believing Bret had held Owen back from his potential, sided with Owen, and usually cornering him in matches through the summer. Neidhart claimed he'd only helped Bret keep the WWF World Heavyweight Championship at King of the Ring so Owen could take it from him. This opportunity came in a steel cage match at SummerSlam. Neidhart sat in the third row during the match, behind other Hart family members. After Bret won the match, Neidhart entered the cage, locked it and helped Owen beat him down, while the Hart family members tried to climb over it and save him. Following SummerSlam, Neidhart teamed with Owen to face Bret and Randy Savage/The British Bulldog in a series of tag team bouts.

Neidhart joined Owen on Shawn Michaels' team, The Teamsters, to face Razor Ramon and The Bad Guys in an elimination match at Survivor Series. After they eliminated every Bad Guy except Razor, after Michaels inadvertently hit Diesel with the Sweet Chin Music. This caused an argument and the tag team partners split up, before Diesel chased Michaels down the aisle. As the other Teamsters tried to intervene, and all were counted out. Because Diesel and Michaels were WWF Tag Team Champions when they split, the title was vacated and a tournament held. Neidhart and Hart lost to The New Headshrinkers (Fatu and Sionne) in the first round on the December 31 Superstars, by disqualification. By the time it aired, Neidhart had left the WWF. Bret Hart wrote in his autobiography that the original plan was for Owen and Neidhart to win the tournament and the WWF Tag Team Championships, but Neidhart was officially fired due to no-showing events. Hart wound up winning the WWF Tag Team Championship at WrestleMania XI with new partner Yokozuna.

Various promotions (1995–1996)
After leaving the WWF once again, Neidhart returned to the ring in February 1995 for the Mid-Eastern Wrestling Federation (MEWF). Over the following months, he wrestled for various independent promotions. In April 1995, he returned to ECW, losing to Marty Jannetty and Ron Simmons on consecutive nights. After several more matches on the independent circuit, in July 1995 Neidhart made a one-night appearance with the Catch Wrestling Association in Graz, Austria, competing in the Euro Catch Festival. Later that month, Neidhart appeared with ECW once more, wrestling Marty Jannetty to a double disqualification. Over the following few months, he continued to wrestle on the independent circuit, briefly holding the MEWF Heavyweight Championship. In November and December 1995, Neidhart worked for the Catch Wrestling Association in Germany, competing in the CWA International Catch Cup tournament.

Neidhart wrestled sporadically throughout early-1996, including appearing at the World Wrestling Peace Festival in June 1996. He returned to the World Wrestling Federation later that month.

Who (1996)
On the July 6, 1996, episode of Superstars, Neidhart returned to the WWF as the masked heel "Who", a gimmick designed for commentators Vince McMahon and Jerry Lawler to make "Who's on First?"-style jokes during his matches (most of which he lost). Who last appeared on TV in the "Bikini Beach Blast-Off" party on the SummerSlam pre-show. His last match was a win over Alex Porteau in Miami on September 12.

Hart Foundation reunion (1997)

Neidhart returned to the WWF once more on the April 28, 1997, episode of Raw is War, attacking Stone Cold Steve Austin and reuniting with Bret and Owen Hart as part of the new Hart Foundation, a stable of Canadian sympathizers, also including Davey Boy Smith and Brian Pillman. On July 6 at In Your House 16: Canadian Stampede in Bret's hometown Calgary, The Hart Foundation defeated the American team of Stone Cold Steve Austin, Ken Shamrock, Goldust and The Legion of Doom. Neidhart was part of Team Canada at Survivor Series in Montreal, teaming with The British Bulldog, Doug Furnas and Philip Lafon defeated Team USA Vader, Goldust, "Marvelous" Marc Mero and the debut of "The Lethal Weapon" Steve Blackman (Bulldog was the sole survivor, Neidhart was pinned by Vader).

During his sentencing, he was arrested and held in contempt of court. Neidhart completed two stints in rehabilitation paid for by WWE.

Death
According to TMZ, Neidhart's wife Elizabeth, told investigators that on August 13, 2018, he was having problems sleeping and got out of bed to adjust the thermostat. As he went to touch it, he "turned weirdly as if he were about to dance", then fell against the wall and floor. She immediately dialed 911, believing he was having a seizure, something for which he took medication. He had a four-inch long gash on his face when emergency services arrived. He died at the scene at the age of 63. According to the Pasco County Sheriff's Office, the fall killed him. At the time, he had early-onset Alzheimer's disease.

Emma was nervous as she slipped on her pure white wedding dress. She sighed as Snow snapped yet another picture of her.
"What if she doesn't show up?" the blonde mumbled on the verge of tears.
" She loves you too much not to show"  Snow mumbled. Emma sniffed an 'okay' and she finished getting ready.
The blonde's nerves were getting the besr of her and as 'Greensleeves' by Enya filled the room, she knew she had to walk down the isle.
She took her bouquet of white roses and started walking.
When she entered the church and saw Regina in front of the alter with a beautiful dress on, her feet started moving faster, until she stood next to her soon-to-be-wife.
Regina smiled at the blonde and her worries disappeared as she gazed into Regina's eyes.
"I love you Regina" she whispered only for the brunette to hear.
The wedding continued without fuss.
"Do you, Emma Swan, take Regina as your lawfully wedded wife?"
"Do you, Regina Mills, take Emma Swan as your lawfully wedded wife? "
"Whew! At least you said yes!" Regina giggled as they exchanged rings.
" I love you too, my wife" Regina mumbled and pulled Emma closer, kissing her softly.
"I pronounce to you Misses and Misses Swan-Mills" the room erupted in cheers as the newly wedded couple kissed again.

Today the cold weather came crashing in with a vengeance. Not only was it cold, but it was also extremely windy. My cute peach blazer and vintage cape jacket kept me nice and warm while I wore my spring colors, in the hopes that it may bring yesterday's warm weather back.
I also decided today was the day to experiment with the monochromatic trend that I have been seeing everywhere lately. I love it.


Acylcarnitine profile (ACP) analysis is performed for the biochemical screening of disorders of fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and organic acid metabolism. In some cases, ACP results are diagnostic for a specific disorder, while in other cases further testing is needed to establish a precise diagnosis. The conditions revealed by acylcarnitine analysis have in common the accumulation of C2-C18 acyl-CoA species, which are substrates for one of several carnitine acyl-CoA transferases expressed in different intracellular compartments. The combined incidence of these disorders is between 1:5,000 and 1:10,000 live births.
Inherited FAO disorders may present at any age, from birth to adulthood, frequently leading to life-threatening episodes of metabolic decompensation after a period of inadequate caloric intake and intercurrent illness. Typical manifestations are hypoketotic hypoglycaemia, liver disease, skeletal and cardiomyopathy. Organic acidaemias are a more heterogeneous group of inborn errors. They typically present with recurrent episodes of acute life-threatening illness, hypo- or hypertonia, failure to thrive, and developmental delay. Common acute manifestations include vomiting, lethargy, coma and seizures.
Guthrie cards are available from the post-natal wards, not from Pathology. Not currently performed in house; this is a referred test.


Money is not a number. It's a relationship. | Morgana Rae & Charmed Life Coaching, Inc.
But your Money Honey will never really exist for you unless you exorcise the monster before him. That's the price of admission.
This is Alchemy. The first step is "negridio"— the blackening. You must create polarity, separate the bad from the good. Your Money Honey is only as real and wonderful as the monster before him is real and terrible.
Financial Alchemy has six steps. You can't leave a single step incomplete.
Finally, if aren't sure you have your Money Honey, I can tell you right now you don't. When your Honey arrives, you will KNOW it with every fiber of your being. And you will SWOON!
P.S. Was this article helpful? Please post your comments below, and share with your friends!
I now have a money honey who knows what is best for me, helps me to think things through before making a final decision and reassures me that only the best will do for me.
I am so thankful for this website and Morgana. Just this morning, I checked my email and got $$ in my paypal account. Last Thursday, I received money in my paypal account. The amounts were not big (yet) but my MH was assuring me to be grateful for the small amounts so that when big amounts come my way, they would be a piece of cake.
I also learned to give back to the Universe in the form of tithes and charity.
Ever since I changed my focus from the monster to the honey, the atmosphere around me has changed. My roommates whine about struggle yet, I stand firm in my consciousness. It's true that as you change your thinking, your life does change.
Best news the EURO shows stability again.
I heard you say to destroy the money monster, but I never felt I actually had one unitl today. Before I created a monster based on others words and views , but today I came face to face with an actul person that I saw as my money monster. So much easier to destroy what you are seeing as real.
Thank you Morgana because after that I was saying I am going to have fun making money and it felt so good.


So they returned with Grace and Bounty from Allah. No harm touched them; and they followed the good pleasure of Allah. Allah is the Owner of great bounty. It is only Satan that suggests to you the fear of his awliyah(supporters and friends, polytheists, disbelivers in the Oneness of Allah and in His Messenger Muhammad) so fear them not but fear Me if you are true believers.' "
"Then when they had both submitted themselves to the Will of Allah and he had laid him prostrate on his forehead (or on the side of his forehead for slaughtering) and We called out to him, 'O Abraham! You have fulfilled the dream.' Verily! Thus do We reward those who perform good deeds, totally for Allah's sake only. Verily, that indeed was a manifest trial and We ransomed him with a great sacrifice (a ram) and We left for him a goodly remembrance among generations (to come) in later times. Salamun(peace) be upon Abraham! Thus indeed do We reward the muhsinin (good-doers). Verily, he was one of Our believing slaves."

No one could have guessed on October 8, 1985, when Les Misérables opened in London at the Barbican Theatre, that it would become a worldwide phenomenon. But audiences embraced it from the start, creating a "people's musical" that has played around the world and has been seen by millions. In 2010, the legendary musical celebrated its 25th birthday, and to mark the occasion, producer Cameron Mackintosh staged an extraordinary concert at the O2 Arena in London.
First broadcast in 2011, LES MISÉRABLES 25TH ANNIVERSARY CONCERT AT THE O2 will have an encore broadcast as part of special programming on PBS stations. Tune in Mon, Aug. 15 at 7pm on the WSIU stations: WSIU 8.1, WUSI 16.1, WSEC 14.1, WQEC 27.1 and WMEC 22.2 or access the WSIU local broadcast livestream online at pbs.org or via the PBS Video app. Watch with WSIU Passport.
With more than 500 actors and musicians — including Alfie Boe, Jenny Galloway, Katie Hall, Nick Jonas, Norm Lewis, Matt Lucas, Lea Salonga, Samantha Barks, Ramin Karimloo and Colm Wilkinson — LES MISÉRABLES 25TH ANNIVERSARY CONCERT AT THE O2 includes the October 2010 cast of the long-running Original Production at London's Queen's Theatre and members of the original 1985 London cast.
Based on Victor Hugo's 1862 novel of the same name and set in early 19th-century France, Les Misérables features the stories of individuals struggling for redemption and revolution. The magnificent score includes the songs "I Dreamed a Dream," "On My Own," "Stars," "Bring Him Home," "Do You Hear the People Sing?," "One Day More," "Empty Chairs at Empty Tables," "Master of the House" and many more.
Cameron Mackintosh's production of Les Misérables is written by Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg and is based on the novel by Victor Hugo. It has music by Claude-Michel Schönberg, lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer and original French text by Alain Boublil and Jean-Marc Natel and additional material by James Fenton. The original London 1985 production of Les Misérables was adapted and directed by Trevor Nunn and John Caird.
