Cloverfield on Blu-ray disc
Wow! Cloverfield is more than a sci-fi horror flick, it's an experience. And after I was finished watching it, I was wound so tightly a couple of scotches were appropriate. Alas, the bar was bare..
Cloverfield is a bird's eye (well, camcorder's eye) first person look at a group of ordinary people's experiences when their comfortable little world ends suddenly, thanks to an attack out of the blue by some huge monster whose origins we never really learn.
The movie starts simply enough, with an overly long introduction (though the subsequent sections more than make up for it) in which a guy named Hud (the mostly unseen T. J. Miller) is assigned to shoot video of a going away party and get goodbyes and words of advice from the bunch of young Manhattanites who show up.
Then there are a couple of bangs and these people's lives are changed (and/or ended) instantly. Explosions start, buildings collapse, panic ensues, and our intrepid heroes head into the streets, trying to find some safety and some answers.
Once in the street, all hell really starts breaking loose. The head of the Statue of Liberty flies through the air and bounces to earth, nearly at their feet, and the news channels visible through business windows start offering reports that something - God only knows what - is happening in New York City. Our heroes start moving toward the safety they think will be available off Manhattan but as they head across the Brooklyn bridge it starts collapsing in front of them - while hero Rob (Michael Stahl-David) gets a desperate phone message from ex-girlfriend Beth (Odette Yustman), who's trapped in her Manhattan apartment, crying for his help.
The way ahead blocked, and a friend in dire need, Rob, accompanied by Hud (who's still recording everything that happens) and the requisite decorative females (Lizzy Caplan and Jessica Lucas) head back against the hordes of evacuees and the U.S. military (swooping in to bring aid to the people and kill what quickly becomes obvious is a huge, Godzilla-like monster, though it also looks a bit like a gigantic Landstrider from "The Dark Crystal") to attempt a daring rescue.
It may sound cliché, and it probably is, but this treatment is so well done that it really, really works.
Their journey back into Manhattan takes them through a fascinating series of adventures and dangers, all shown to us in the first person perspective of the camcorder - a heckuva good camcorder that takes a licking and keeps on ticking no matter what happens to it.
I won't spoil it for you - it really must be watched to be appreciated and this jaded monster movie fan recommends it highly. A warning, though: the "camcorder" aspect of the movie means the shots are very jumpy and according to some reviews I've read could cause nausea in some viewers - which is refreshing in a way, because it's usually the screenplay or performances that do it!
The camcorder as storyteller technique has been tried before, most famously in "The Blair Witch Project", a worthless exercise that had no scares and even less action - but Cloverfield is the real deal. Is it ever! I can't remember ending up wrapped so tightly after a film since the first time I saw George Romero's original, black and white "Night of the Living Dead" back in the 1960's.
I always consider Stanley Kubrick movies to be as much experiences as they are films but, while definitely not in the same league as a Kubrick film, Cloverfield is just as much an experience. When it ended, I felt almost as if I'd been there, and I was worn out.
Part of the reason is the special effects, which are superb. Another part is the screenplay, which eschews traditional storytelling and dialogue in favor of a "cinema verité" style that's believable and refreshing, letting us be flies on the wall of these young people's life-altering (in more ways than one!) experience.
Another reason for the realism is the use of a relatively unknown cast, which helps our suspension of disbelief in a way that no Brad Pitt could - not to disparage him as an actor, but to have someone well known in this movie would have destroyed the sense of realism, of being at a real event.
I loved how we never find out what happens. We never learn what the monster is, whether or not it lived (from what we see, it sure seems indestructible!), how far its swath of destruction is spread, how many lives are lost, etc. It's been said that the best horror on screen is that which you don't see and, though we get to see enough, it's the stuff outside the camcorder's limited range that helps keep our hair standing on end.
The Blu-ray looks wonderful. The "cinema verité" style comes through beautifully, with a sharp image that features good blacks and deep shadows, with excellent color and detail. It may not be quite "reference quality" but it's certainly close enough. The 1080p widescreen picture is about all you can expect froma movie that's shot mostly at night, in darkened streets and buildings (though that also works to help enhance the creepiness).
Audio is Dolby TrueHD 5.1 and it's excellent. There are plenty of explosions and crashes - and giant monster footsteps - and the low frequency channel gets a very nice workout. The surround channels get used well, too and the overall soundtrack is textured and real. The lack of a musical score (which doesn't begin until the closing credits are well under way) helps contribute to the realism by allowing the rich atmosphere to soak over us..
There are plenty of extras, too, from the standard director's commentary, deleted scenes and alternative ending, to outtakes and a series of featurettes and "making of" stuff.
Paramount has also tossed in a Blu-ray-only "Special Investigation Mode", which puts the movie into a small, secondary window while the main screen displays a map tracking movements of the characters (including the monster) while dispensing information about the stuff.
In all, it's a pretty compelling package for an extremely compelling movie.

Šūrīde va bī-qarār : darbāre-ye Sa'dī va āṯār-e ū. Tehrān, Našr-e Qaṭre, 1384/2005, 184 p. (Honar va adabīyāt-e īrān, 164).
1The reassessment of Sa'dī and his literary achievement continues, this volume weighing whether or not the reputation he once enjoyed in Enlightenment Europe was fully deserved. This work, the title of which comes from a line of Sa'dī's verse, sides with Sa'dī's admirers (as does another recent monograph on Sa'dī by Homā Kātūziyān), without adding very much new information or analysis. However, it does distill a good deal of information into a quickly digestible format, suitable for students or other newcomers needing a short, reliable, general introduction to the life and works of Sa'dī.
2The chapters cover Sa'dī's life and the socio-political circumstances of his day (pp. 9-26), a helpful chronology (pp. 27-31), a short discussion of his works (which while admitting the lack of imagery in his ġazals, nevertheless values them highly, pp. 33-79). Two chapters are devoted to quotations from Sa'dī's detractors (pp. 93-102) and from his supporters, with the latter having the longer and final word on the matter (pp. 113-167). Perhaps the most original contribution of this work is its comments on the text-critical difficulties in Sa'dī's texts and its brief suggestions about how future editors might approach the manuscript tradition of his works (pp. 103-112). A bibliography and some notes are included, and while this thin volume lacks an index, the chapter divisions and section headings will help guide the reader to specific items in the text.

Cancer screenings rebounded in 2020 after COVID, but racial disparities remain
The numbers of cancer screening tests rebounded sharply in the last quarter of 2020, following a dramatic decline in the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, at one large hospital system in the Northeastern United States. These findings were released in a study published in Cancer Cell. The research also found an increase in racial and socioeconomic disparities among users of some screening tests during the pandemic.
Study co-senior author Toni K. Choueiri, MD, director of the Lank Center for Genitourinary Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, said following a dramatic decline during the first pandemic peak, there was a "substantial increase in screening procedures during the more recent periods with numbers exceeding those seen before the pandemic. However, racial disparities appear to differ between screening procedures, and are more marked in patients undergoing mammography."
"Early screening and diagnosis provide patients with the best chance for cancer cure—a widened racial gap in cancer screening due to COVID-19 will exacerbate existing racial disparities in cancer mortality," adds Quoc-Dien Trinh, MD, co-director of the Dana-Farber/Brigham and Women's Prostate Cancer Center, co-leader of the Mass General Brigham United Against Racism prostate cancer outreach clinic, and co-senior author on the study.
During September to December 2020, cancer screening rates for breast, prostate cervical, and lung cancer recovered and exceeded numbers seen before the pandemic, the study authors said. However, the recovery was not seen in colonoscopy screening to detect colorectal cancer.
"Colonoscopy did not get back to normal levels," said Chris Labaki, MD, of Dana-Farber, co-first author of the study. One reason may be that it is the most invasive of the tests, requiring hospital and anesthesia services, the authors suggested. The investigators also noted that some patients who would have undergone colonoscopies to screen for colorectal cancer may have opted for alternative, home-based methods such as tests for occult blood in stool.
In addition to the pandemic's temporary stifling of routine cancer screening, the researchers also found an increase in racial and socioeconomic disparities with some screening tests. Significant shifts in the racial distribution of patients undergoing mammography were revealed in the decreased numbers of Non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic patients having mammographies during the period September to December 2020 compared to the three months preceding the pandemic. This contrasted with an increase in mammography tests in the whole group of patients during the last quarter of 2020, according to the study. "These findings are concerning and suggest the pandemic may accentuate racial disparities related to cancer screening," the authors noted.
The racial proportions of patients undergoing screening during the pandemic remained stable for PSA, colonoscopy, Pap test, and CT scanning for lung cancer, compared to the pre-pandemic periods.
The study was based on records of the Mass General Brigham system, a large healthcare system in the Northeast—a region that had experienced a sharp decline in screening during the early months of the pandemic. A decrease in numbers of screening tests during March to June 2020 and June to September 2020 ranged from minus 65% to minus 82% and minus 4% to minus 44%, respectively, depending on screening type.
The reduction in tests initially in 2020 and the resurgence in the last quarter of 2020 was accompanied by changes in diagnoses of cancer: only 1,985 positive tests were reported during the early pandemic (March-June 2020) compared to 3,476 positive tests in the September-December period.
Statisticians calculated that 1,187 diagnoses were 'missed' from March to June 2020 because of reduced use of screening. Of those, 323 were 'recovered' from September to December 2020, although the study did not note whether the cancers were found at later stages. For colonoscopy, no diagnoses were 'recovered' and 38 positive diagnoses were 'missed' across the three pandemic periods analyzed.
"The increase in screening tests that was identified from September to December 2020 helped to recover some of the "missed" cancer diagnoses from earlier time periods," Labaki added. "However, more efforts are still needed to ensure the implementation of large screening campaigns as a significant proportion of cancers remains undiagnosed." The delays in diagnosis are expected to cause adverse oncologic outcomes, the researchers say.

Summer time is here and it's the time to share amazing food with friends and family. These Healthy Happy Hot-Dogs are the perfect addition to your BBQ arsenal. We are using marinated carrots as the 'hot dog' because it soaks up the flavours and satiates the texture we're so used to when it comes to traditional hot dogs.
When we made these last, we used our homegrown romaine lettuce as the bun which allows you to have seconds, and sometimes even thirds. Radish sprouts also helped increase the nutrient-density and protein of the meal. To give it a final finish, we garnished with our famous coconut bacon (we teach how to make this recipe and 4 other healthy bacon recipes in our Eat for Life Online Culinary Course).
Most of the fake meats contain a lot of artificial flavours, additives and fillers which frankly, you just don't need. Try these delicious alternatives that will make your tummy smile.
Put peeled carrots into hot water, below the boil and cook for 8-10 minuets or until fork tender but not mushy. Make sure to remove the carrots and run them under cool water to stop the cooking process.
Place the marinade and carrots in a glass container with a lid (that will fit in your fridge) and shake until the carrots are well coated. Let the carrots stand in the marinade for at least 24 hours.
You can either BBQ the carrots or heat them on your stovetop. For stovetop, heat up 1 tsp of coconut oil (you can also use grape seed or avocado oil) in a medium skillet and cook the carrots for 10-12 minutes or until desired.


Bishop Janice Riggle Huie of the Houston Area presides over a May 2 debate on denominational restructure at the 2012 United Methodist General Conference in Tampa, Florida. A UMNS photo by Paul Jeffrey. Click on image to enlarge. View more photos.
After several false starts to create a new structure, the May 2 session of the 2012 General Conference approved a modest realignment of the 13 general agencies that serve the 13 million-member United Methodist Church.
The Rev. Scott Campbell, a pastor in Cambridge, Mass., called for a declaratory decision from the Judicial Council on whether any part of the structure plan is unconstitutional. The request was granted, 505-344, well in excess of the required 20 percent of the delegates.
Costs of the new structure will be evaluated by the General Council on Finance and Administration and the Connectional Table for a final vote during the May 4 closing session.
The plan retains GCFA and four general program boards — Higher Education, Global Ministries, Church and Society and Discipleship.
The general commissions on the Status and Role of Women and Religion and Race will be combined as a Committee on Inclusiveness no later than June 30, 2013. An effort to continue the two commissions failed, 459 to 453.
That committee and the four program boards will report to a 45-member General Council on Strategy and Oversight. The top executives of those agencies will be nominated by the boards and elected by the council. If there is a conflict between guidance of a top executive of the council and the governing body of the agency, the agency executive should follow the directions of his or her board of directors.
The council will elect an executive general secretary who cannot be a bishop.
The Commission on Archives and History will be changed to a committee of the finance agency before June 30, 2013. The general director will be an associate general secretary of the council.
As established in an early plenary session, United Methodist Women will become an independent agency to join United Methodist Men, the Board of Pension and Health Benefits, the United Methodist Publishing House and United Methodist Communications as agencies that will report to General Conference. Executives of those agencies will be nonvoting members of the General Council on Strategy and Oversight.
The Commission on Christian Unity and Interreligious Concerns will become an office of the Council of Bishops by June, 30, 2013.
The plan, dubbed the Plan UMC, evolved from conversations between members of the legislative committee of the Connectional Table and delegates who submitted "Plan B" at the General Administration Legislation Committee during the first week of the conference.
Authors of a proposed restructuring plan from the Methodist Federation for Social Action said they were not consulted.
While the names of the 18 people drafting Plan UMC were listed in the Daily Christian Advocate, several delegates wanted to know about their conference, age and ethnicity before voting on a motion to refer. That information was not available at the time of voting.
The Rev. Tracy Malone, a delegate from Northern Illinois, argued in favor of referral. "There has been little time for delegates to consider the plan, and it was not published in other languages." She also said there was not broad representation of youth, women and members of central conferences on the writing team.
The motion to refer the proposal to the Connectional Table for further study was defeated, 395 to 555. The structure was approved 567 to 384.
The Commission on the Status and Role of Women asked the conference to begin steps to amend the Constitution to add "gender" to the list, and the assembly added the word "age" to the list of characteristics that cannot used to prohibit membership or attendance.
By a squeaker vote, 443-439, delegates agreed to refer the proposal to the Commission on the Status and Role of Women for further study.
Delegates received two petitions with minority reports on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Don House, a delegate from Texas argued against a minority report that called for United Methodist agencies to divest investments in Caterpillar, Motorola Solutions and Hewlett Packard until those companies end their involvement in the Israeli occupation.
He likened the effort to blame the cited companies to an effort to blame a company that manufactured a car for a car wreck caused by a drunk driver.
Approved a revised judicial trial process for clergy that removes the Committee on Investigation step. Delegates also called for open trials unless the presiding officer decides the trial should be closed. The trial itself is unchanged.
Observed the presentation of an ecumenical award to the Rev. John L. McCullough, executive director of Church World Service, an international humanitarian agency with programs in development and humanitarian affairs, advocacy for social justice, and refugee assistance around the world.
Reaffirmed a resolution calling for the phasing out of nuclear weapons production and the closing down of five weapons-producing reactors and the Rocky Flats Plutonium Processing Plant.
Referred a request to the United Methodist Publishing House that electronic access be provided to the series of 27 booklets titled "Guidelines for Leading Your Congregation." Delegates were told it will cost $95,500 in acquisition and other costs to provide the service, and the Publishing House would lose $1.1 million in sales.

A court in Istanbul on Monday, January 11, handed Adnan Oktar, the head of a cult considered a criminal organization by prosecutors, hefty prison terms for 10 separate crimes.
The 64-year-old Oktar and dozens of his followers were arrested simultaneously during nationwide raids in 2018.
Oktar, whose online A9 television channel began broadcasting in 2011, preached conservative views while women he called his "kittens, "many of whom appeared to have had plastic surgery danced around him in the TV studio.

44- Year Old Man Jailed For Chop Off Another Man's Ear Over Girlfriend
He was sentenced to 1,075 years for crimes including sexual assault, sexual abuse of minors, fraud, and attempted political and military espionage, the private NTV broadcaster reported.
Some 236 suspects have been on trial in the case, 78 of whom are under arrest, according to the official Anadolu news agency.
Oktar told the presiding judge back in December that he had close to 1,000 girlfriends.
"There is an overflowing of love in my heart for women. Love is a human quality. It is a quality of a Muslim," he said in another hearing in October 2020.
He added on another occasion: "I am extraordinarily potent."
Oktar first came to public attention in the 1990s when he was the leader of a sect that was caught up in multiple sex scandals.

One of the women at his trial, identified only as CC, told the court that Oktar had repeatedly sexually abused her and other women.
Some of the women he had raped were forced to take contraceptive pills, CC told the court.
Asked about 69,000 contraception pills found in his home by the police, Oktar said they were used to treat skin disorders and menstrual irregularities.
He also dismissed any link to a group led by US-based Muslim preacher Fethullah Gulen, whom Turkish authorities accuse of orchestrating a coup attempt in 2016.
Oktar is a creationist who rejects the Darwinian theory of evolution and has written a 770-page book called "The Atlas of Creation" under the pen name, Harun Yahya.

Pass the message
A whisper was the only sound during an attempt to break a world record.
Around 500 people answered a call from Cleveland Fire Brigade's Prince's Trust Team to try to beat the world record for the largest game of Chinese whispers.
The game involves people standing in a line, with a message whispered along the chain of people.
Sadly their attempt failed to break the current record, which according to Guinness World Records was set last year in China when a whispered message passed along a line of 1,083 people.
But that didn't dishearten those taking part in the event at Redcar Racecourse, with young and old eager to get involved.

Royal Australian Navy sailor found dead in Oman
Business Thursday 16/June/2016 10:06 AM
Muscat: A Royal Australian Navy sailor has been found dead in an Oman hotel room.
"The ship was in Muscat, Oman on a scheduled port visit and the sailor was on shore leave in the city when he was found unconscious," said the Australian Department of Defense.
"Despite medical treatment, the sailor could not be revived," they added.
The sailor was one of the crew members of the navy's Guided Missile Frigate HMAS Darwin, which was deployed to contribute to Middle Eastern efforts in promoting maritime security and stability in the region by fighting terrorism and performing anti-piracy operations in regional waters around the Middle East.
"The Australian Defense Force Investigative Service is assisting local authorities with investigations. As such, it is not appropriate to provide further details at this time," said the Department of Defence.

Your mobile phone must be switched on to use it to travel. You should also check that you have enough battery on your phone to complete your journey. If it runs out of battery in the middle of a journey, you may have to pay the appropriate fare or could face paying a penalty fare.

Do you have a new roof, or are you planning one in the near future? If so, keep in mind these helpful tips to take care of your roof.
Taking good care of your roof should be part of your regular home maintenance program.
One of the most important things to take care of are your gutters. Clogged or blocked gutters can very quickly deteriorate your roof.
You should regularly sweep your roof and clear debris such as branches, leaves, and moss. This will preserve the life of your shingles and also help to keep your gutters clear.
After heavy rains, you should check your roof for any broken shingles or damaged flashing.
Always take extreme care when inspecting a roof, and keep in mind that it is never recommended to walk on your roof if it is wet or steep. In addition, a metal or clay tile roof should only be inspected or maintained by a professional.
