Kaalbela (Calcutta My Love) [2009]
Samaresh Majumdar's novel Kaalbela (The Odd Hours), which was a fascinating time-capsule of the turbulent 1960's and 70's Calcutta, remains both an exceedingly popular Bengali novel and a terrific work of art. Compressing a layered and dense book like that into a movie would have been a tough task for anyone. Never to shy away from challenge, Goutam Ghose did take up this arduous task; the end result, one must agree, is reasonably competent and satisfying. Parambrata Chatterjee, in a role any actor would give a limb or two for, plays the principal protagonist Animesh Mitra, an idealistic young guy from North Bengal who has come down to Calcutta to study Bengali literature. Unbeknownst to him, he lands right in the middle of a political hotbed. Over the next few years, he slowly gets indoctrinated into the ultra-Leftist ideologies, and becomes part of the student-led urban guerrilla movement by the name of Naxalism. He also finds love in the form of Madhabilata (very well played by Paoli Dam), a fiercely independent fellow college student, and it is her love that will keep him alive when his grand visions of an egalitarian, classless society get shattered into a thousand pieces. The film did seem a tad disarticulated at times (in need of better editing and bigger budget perhaps) and certainly not as emotionally resonating or gut-wrenching as the book, but I found this well-enacted film a laudatory effort on Ghose's part nonetheless.

The Spiral Staircase [1946]
Robert Siodmak made two of the greatest film noirs of all time, viz. The Killers and Criss Cross. He directed a few more commendable noirs too, making him a legend in this school of filmmaking. The Spiral Staircase, though not in the same league as the above two noir icons, nonetheless remains a taut and effective old-fashioned gothic thriller. A serial-killer is on the prowl in a small American town, and the only kinds of people that he is targeting are women with some physical handicap or other. Helen is a sweet-looking and mild-mannered girl, and lives in the house of a wealthy family comprising of a series of mysterious characters. Helen, unfortunately is mute as a result of a childhood trauma, and thus, as expected, becomes the latest target of the vicious killer. The villain's identity is revealed in the end, but, like all classic "who is the mysterious killer?" films, not before a series of cat-and-mouse moments ensure the viewer's suspicion keeps shifting from one character to the other like a game of musical chair. The film comprises of reasonably good performances by the cast and fine indoor shooting, with the tension-buildup nicely brought about. The script does at times border on the cheesy and melodramatic and the film has its share of clichés (perhaps because it was a studio-bound film intended to capture a wide audience base), the final product, despite its few flaws, does manage to stand on its own as a smart and interesting film.

The Verdict [1982]
Sidney Lumet, right from his debut film 12 Angry Men to his swansong Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, has made quite a few remarkable, no-nonsense movies on the flip side of the "American Dream" over the course of his long career. Lumet's The Verdict remains a powerful courtroom drama as also an exceptional character study of an ageing, has-been man who gets a one-off opportunity to redeem himself and reclaim his dignity in the eyes of the world, and more importantly, in his own eyes. Paul Newman, in what might rank as one of his finest performances, played the role of the protagonist Frank Galvin. Galvin, an alcoholic Boston lawyer who's hit the rock bottom both personally and professionally, goes against a mighty law firm representing a Catholic hospital in order to defend against various odds the cause of a woman who's gone into coma upon wrong administration of anesthesia. On the surface the film might appear to be a classic underdog story, but thanks in large parts to the great script and Newman's tour-de-force performance, it developed into something much more than that. Newman received excellent support in the form of Mickey Morissey as Galvin's loyal friend, Charlotte Rampling as his deceitful lover, and James Mason as his high-profile rival. The best aspect of the movie remains the time and effort expended by Lumet in developing the characters and character dynamics, and in its exemplary pacing leading us to a quietly profound albeit understated climax.

Khamosh [1985]
Khamosh, Vidhu Vinod Chopra's sophomore feature film direction, is a film-within-a-film made in the tradition of a classic whodunit. A film-crew has come to the beautiful town of Pehelgaum (in Kashmir) to shoot a movie. Things however take a dramatic turn when a supporting actress (and a wannabe heroine) mysteriously commits suicide. In comes a military man who is convinced that the lady has been murdered, thus kick-starting a chain of events that results in a few more murders with the blame being serially shifted from one person to another. As the murky plot unfolds, we realize that hardly any character is capable of occupying a moral high-ground; rather, ugliness and deceit define most of them, irrespective of what their public veneers suggest. The movie boasts of a terrific ensemble cast – Naseeruddin Shah, as the no-nonsense military man who makes unraveling the killer his personal agenda; Amol Palekar, as a famous actor and a mild-mannered man; Shabana Azmi, as an award-winning actress and a somnambulist; Sadashiv Amrapurkar, as the director; Ajit Vachani, as the film's lascivious producer; Pankaj Kapoor, as the producer's alcoholic brother, to name a few. It's not that the plot is completely bereft of discrepancies, but they never came in the way of my enjoying this delectably suspenseful and tightly structured murder mystery.

Sukumar Ray [1987]
Sukumar Ray was a remarkable personality in the history of Bengali literature. Son of Upendrakishore Raychaudhury (a close friend of Rabindranath Tagore and a man with multifarious talents and achievements), he was an incredibly gifted man. One of the great humourists of the world, he remains the father of 'literary nonsense' in India and finds place in world-literature alongside the likes of Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear. His poems, stories and plays, which are filled to the brim with wit, absurdist and satirical humour, wordplays and ironies, and adorned with his wonderful illustrations, remain immensely popular among Bengalis to this day, though largely unknown outside Bengal. Interestingly, his creative bent aside, he graduated in both Physics and Chemistry (from Presidency College), studied printing technology from England, was a pioneer in photography and lithography, regularly dabbled in essays on science, ran the magazine Sandesh started by his father, participated in reformist activities, founded the Nonsense Club, among others! Made by his son Satyajit Ray in order to commemorate his birth centenary, this crisp 30-minute documentary provides a fascinating portrayal of the man, his life (albeit a woefully short one as he died at the young age of 36), his priceless creations and his enduring legacy. Brilliantly narrated by Soumitra Chatterjee, it features performances by some of the doyens of Bengali cinema (in the dramatized sections of his life), viz. Chatterjee, Utpal Dutt and Santosh Dutta. The documentary is funny, lyrical, informative and mournful in equal measures, making this heart-rending (and curiously nostalgic) account a loving tribute to the extraordinary genius of Sukumar Ray.

Hump Day Humor - SUMBICH!
A filthy rich Florida man decided that he wanted to throw a party and invited all of his buddies and neighbors.
He also invited Leroy, the only Redneck in the neighborhood.
He held the party around the pool in the backyard of his mansion.
The words were barely out of his mouth when there was a loud splash. Everyone turned around and saw Leroy in the pool!
Leroy was fighting the gator and kicking its rear! Leroy was jabbing it in the eyes with his thumbs, throwing punches, head butts and choke holds, biting the gator on the tail and flipping it through the air like some kind of Judo Instructor.
Finally, Leroy strangled the gator and let it float to the top like a dime store goldfish.
Leroy then slowly climbed out of the pool. Everybody was just staring at him in disbelief.
'No thanks, I don't want it,' answered Leroy.
LMAO oh that is funny.

A kiwi is any of the species of small flightless birds endemic to New Zealand of the genus Apteryx (the only genus in family Apterygidae). At around the size of a domestic chicken, kiwi are by far the smallest living ratites. Several kiwi species are endangered. The kiwi is also a national symbol for New Zealand. Honorary Mammal: Prior to the arrival of humans in the 13th century or earlier, New Zealand's only endemic mammals were three species of bat, and the ecological niches that in other parts of the world were filled by creatures as diverse as horses, wolves and mice were taken up by birds (and, to a lesser extent, reptiles). Swiss Army Beak: Kiwi are shy nocturnal creatures with a highly developed sense of smell and, most unusual in a bird, nostrils at the end of their long bill. They feed by thrusting the bill into the ground in search of worms, insects, and other invertebrates; they also take fruit and, if the opportunity arises, small crayfish, amphibians and eels. Flightless and Loving it: Their adaptation to a terrestrial life is extensive: like all ratites they have no keel on the breastbone to anchor wing muscles, and barely any wings either: the vestiges are so small that they are invisible under the kiwi's bristly, hair-like, two-branched feathers. While birds generally have hollow bones to save weight and make flight practicable, kiwi have marrow, in the style of mammals. With no constraints on weight from flight requirements, some Brown Kiwi females carry and lay a single 450 g egg. Family Ties: It was long presumed that the kiwi's closest relatives were the other New Zealand ratites, the moa. However recent DNA studies indicate that the Ostrich is more closely related to the moa and the kiwi's closest relatives are the Emu and the cassowaries. This theory suggests that the kiwi's ancestors arrived in New Zealand from elsewhere in Australasia well after the moa. According to British scientists, the kiwi may be an ancient import from Australia. Researchers of Oxford University have found DNA evidence connected to Australia's Emu and the Ostrich of Africa. Upon examining DNA from New Zealand's native moa, they believe that the kiwi is more closely related to its Australian cousins. Kiwi Couples: After an initial meeting during mating season (June to March), kiwi usually live as monogamous couples. The pair will meet in the nesting burrow every few days and call to each other at night. These relationships have been known to last for up to 20 years. Impressive Eggs: Kiwi eggs can weigh up to one quarter the size of the female. Usually only one egg is laid. Although the Kiwi is about the size of a domestic chicken, it is able to lay eggs that are up to ten times larger than a chicken's egg. Currently there are three accepted species, one of which has two sub-species: The largest species is the Great Spotted Kiwi, Apteryx haastii, which stands about 450 mm high and weighs about 3.3 kg. (Males about 2.4 kg) It has grey-brown plumage with lighter bands. The female lays just one egg, with both sexes incubating. Population is estimated to be over 20,000, distributed through the more mountainous parts of northwest Nelson, the northern West Coast, and the Southern Alps. The very small Little Spotted Kiwi, Apteryx owenii is unable to survive predation by imported pigs, stoats and cats and is extinct on the mainland and the most threatened of all kiwi. About 1350 remain on Kapiti Island and it has been introduced to other predator-free islands and appears to be becoming established with about 50 'Little Spots' on each island. A docile bird the size of a bantam, it stands 250 mm high and the female weighs 1.3 kg. She lays one egg which is incubated by the male. The Brown Kiwi, Apteryx mantelli is widespread in the northern two-thirds of the North Island and with about 35,000 remaining is the most common kiwi. Females stand about 400 mm high and weigh about 2.8 kg, the males about 2.2 kg. The North Island Brown has demonstrated a remarkable resilience: it adapts to a wide range of habitats, even non-native forests and some farmland. The plumage is streaky red-brown and spiky. The female usually lays two eggs, which are incubated by the male. The Okarito Brown Kiwi or Rowi, Apteryx rowi, is a recently identified species, slightly smaller, with a greyish tinge to the plumage and sometimes white facial feathers. Females lay as many as three eggs in a season, each one in a different nest. Male and female both incubate. These Kiwi are distributed in the South Island of New Zealand. The Southern Tokoeka, Apteryx australis australis, relatively common species of kiwi known from southwest South Island (Fiordland) that occurs at most elevations. It is approximately the size of the Great Spotted Kiwi and is similar in appearance to the Brown Kiwi but its plumage is lighter in colour. The Stewart Island Tokoeka, Apteryx australis lawryi, is a subspecies of Southern Tokoeka known from Stewart Island. The Haast Tokoeka, Apteryx n. sp. (?fusca), is the rarest species of kiwi with only about 300 individuals. It was identified as a distinct form in 1993. It only occurs in a restricted area in South Island's Haast Range at an altitude of 1,500 m. This form is distinguished by a more strongly downcurved bill and more rufous plumage.


This week, we remember four Vietnam veterans, each of whom gave their lives within nine days of each other in early 1967. All four of them earned the Medal of Honor for their courage and sacrifice in defense of their comrades and their nation.
First Sergeant Maximo Yabes was born in 1932 in Lodi, California. On the morning of February 26, 1967, Yabes was with Company A of the 4th Battalion, 9th Infantry Regiment, 25th Infantry Division near Phú Hòa Đông, just north of Sài Gòn. Yabes and Company A were providing security for a clearing operation when they came under attack from three sides by approximately 500 Việt Cộng troops. The enemy forces quickly pressed toward the company command post, where Sergeant Yabes was posted. In the midst of this intense combat, multiple Việt Cộng-thrown grenades landed near Yabes's position. Yelling to warn those nearby, Yabes intentionally used his body to shield his comrades from the explosion, and he received numerous painful shrapnel wounds. Nonetheless, Sergeant Yabes remained at his post, under fire, until the command group had retreated to a defensible position. Through the rest of the battle, Yabes used an M-79 grenade launcher to help halt the Việt Cộng attack; retrieved two wounded men and helped them to a medical aid station in the rear; and on his own initiative proceeded to assault a Việt Cộng machine gun emplacement that threatened the entire unit. Yabes managed to destroy the emplacement, saving numerous American Soldiers, before dying of his wounds. First Sergeant Yabes is listed on row 102 of panel 15E of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall, in Washington, D.C.
Two days later and over 500 miles to the north, near the Demilitarized Zone, 20-year-old Private First Class James Anderson Jr. of Los Angeles, California was with Company F, 2d Battalion, 3d Marines. Anderson and his comrades, moving through thick jungle terrain, were headed to help a besieged reconnaissance patrol unit when they came under heavy fire from small arms and machine guns. Anderson and others, who had been in the lead element, were less than 75 feet from the Communist position, and several of those around him were quickly wounded. When an enemy grenade rolled into the middle of the element's position, Private Anderson immediately grabbed it and held it to his chest, absorbing the vast majority of the shrapnel when it detonated. The explosion killed Anderson, who undoubtedly saved several of his platoon-mates with his selfless act. Private First Class James Anderson Jr. is listed on row 112 of panel 15E of the Memorial Wall.
On the same day, February 28, 1967, Sergeant First Class Matthew Leonard, from Birmingham, Alabama, was on patrol with Company B, 1st Battalion, 16th Infantry, 1st Infantry Division. That day, the 37-year-old sergeant and his platoon came under sudden attack by Việt Cộng forces in Tây Ninh Province, near the border with Cambodia. The platoon's officers were wounded immediately, and Leonard was instrumental in forming a defensive line to repel the initial attack. He then took the lead in the platoon's defense, redistributing ammunition and encouraging his fellow soldiers. While dragging a wounded man to the defensive perimeter, Leonard received a devastating wound to his left hand from a Việt Cộng sniper, rendering the hand useless. He refused medical aid, but instead continued to direct the platoon's defensive fire. In the meantime, Việt Cộng troops had moved a machine gun into flanking position. With no time to waste, Sergeant Leonard charged the enemy machine gun crew across open ground and managed to kill them and disable the weapon, though he was hit numerous times in the process. Leonard then crawled to a tree, propped himself against it, and continued to fire at the Việt Cộng forces before finally succumbing to his wounds. Inspired by his example, the platoon was able to hold the line until reinforcements arrived. Sergeant First Class Matthew Leonard's name is inscribed on row 119 of panel 15E of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.
A mere six days later, Seaman David G. Ouellet also earned the Medal of Honor. On March 6, 1967, the 22-year-old Ouellet of Wellesley, Massachusetts, was on patrol aboard a river patrol boat (PBR) in the Mekong Delta as part of River Squadron 5, Mỹ Tho Detachment 532. Early in the evening, Ouellet—who was the boat's forward gunner—observed movement along the shore and alerted his captain to investigate. As the PBR approached the riverbank, a Việt Cộng combatant lobbed a grenade into the boat in the near-darkness. Ouellet quickly realized his crewmates had not spotted the grenade entering the boat. He left his gunner position and ran toward the stern, shouting a warning, then pushed his exposed captain out of the way and placed himself between the grenade and the rest of the crew just as it detonated. Ouellet was killed in the blast, but saved the lives of his crewmates in the process. Seaman David G. Ouellet has his name engraved on row 30 of panel 16E of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.

Constructions of gender and space are interrelated and (re)produced within complex webs of socio-cultural and political power. This conference brings together critical studies of masculinities and metropolitan spaces and explores these complex interrelations and constructions from the nineteenth to the twenty-first century. It aims to shed light on (re)negotiations of different hegemonic and non-hegemonic discourses of metropolitan masculinities. In particular, we call for papers that explore masculinities and urban spaces as they intersect with sexuality, race, class, ability, age, nationality and similar identity categories. Processes of urbanization have often been characterized by the consolidation of patriarchal, heteronormative white western middle-class relations of power. However, urban spaces have also posed challenges to and enabled reconfigurations of this order. Dominant, normative and complicit discourses of urban masculinities clash and interact with non-normative, marginalized, or resistant forms of discourses of masculinity. We invite papers that explore this plurality of urban masculinities in both synchronic and diachronic terms.
We encourage the submission of papers that explore ways in which particular spaces within the metropolis have shaped and, in turn, have been shaped by the production, representation and performance of specific urban masculinities. These could include the study of specific neighborhoods, subcultural and queer places, places of leisure and amusement, or places of urban nightlife. Who has been allowed and enabled to access what kinds of spaces? How have individual places influenced constructions and proliferations of specific masculinities, and how has this been (re)produced, facilitated and undermined by means of representation? How have discourses about metropolitan masculinities, including specific structures, bodies, embodiments and movements developed over time? What are the global and distinctly local components and varieties of urban masculinities, particularly in an era of global television, cinema and digital narratives? How have processes such as industrialization, consumer culture, and immigration shaped the contemporary plurality of urban masculinities? How can we account for calls for a return to more 'traditional' or 'archaic' varieties of masculinity, for instance through media representations that construct urban space as the 'new frontier' or connect urban masculinity to the populist political rhetoric of the far right?
We invite contributions from the fields of literary and cultural studies, gender studies, media studies, history, sociology, and related disciplines that examine the discourses of metropolitan masculinities particularly as (re)produced in literature, film, television, digital / social media, art, drama / theatre, journalism, and material culture.
Metropolitan masculinities and intersections of race, class, ethnicity, (trans)nationality, religion, (dis)ability, age, etc.
Please email 300-400-word abstracts for 20-minute papers to Heike Steinhoff and Cornelia Wächter at metro-masc-conference@ruhr-uni-bochum.de by 31 March 2019.

I think it is also necessary to send Epaphroditus to you. He is my brother, coworker, and fellow soldier; and he is your representative who serves my needs.
Also I considered it necessary to send you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow-worker and fellow-soldier, the emissary whom you sent to take care of my needs;
I think I ought to send my dear friend Epaphroditus back to you. He is a follower and a worker and a soldier of the Lord, just as I am. You sent him to look after me,
but I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow-workman and fellow-soldier, but your messenger and minister to my need,

But I regarded it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus— my brother and fellow-worker and fellow-soldier, and your delegate and minister of my need—
But I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow labourer, and fellow soldier, but your apostle, and he that hath ministered to my wants.
For now, I think I must send Epaphroditus back to you. He is my brother in God's family, who works and serves with me in the Lord's army. When I needed help, you sent him to me,

[L But; or Meanwhile,] I thought ·I should [it necessary to] send back to you Epaphroditus [4:18], my ·brother in Christ [L brother] and coworker, ·who serves with me in Christ's army [L and fellow soldier]. He was your messenger, sent as a ·servant [minister] to meet my needs.
But I supposed it necessary to send my brother Epaphroditus unto you my companion in labor, and fellow soldier, even your messenger, and he that ministered unto me such things as I wanted.

Meanwhile, I thought it best to send Epaphroditus—my brother, fellow worker, and fellow soldier, but your messenger and minister to my need—back to you.
I have considered it desirable, however, to send you Epaphroditus. He has been to me brother, fellow-worker and comrade-in-arms, as well as being the messenger you sent to see to my wants. He has been home-sick for you, and was worried because he knew that you had heard that he was ill. Indeed he was ill, very dangerously ill, but God had mercy on him—and incidentally on me as well, so that I did not have the sorrow of losing him to add to my sufferings. I am particularly anxious, therefore, to send him to you so that when you see him again you may be glad, and to know of your joy will lighten my own sorrows. Welcome him in the Lord with great joy! You should hold men like him in highest honour, for his loyalty to Christ brought him very near death—he risked his life to do for me in person what distance prevented you all from doing.
Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and companion in labour and fellowsoldier, but your messenger and he that ministered to my needs.

Meanwhile, I thought I ought to send Epaphroditus back to you. You sent him to help me in my need; well, he and I have been real brothers, working and battling side by side.
But for right now, I'm dispatching Epaphroditus, my good friend and companion in my work. You sent him to help me out; now I'm sending him to help you out. He has been wanting in the worst way to get back with you. Especially since recovering from the illness you heard about, he's been wanting to get back and reassure you that he is just fine. He nearly died, as you know, but God had mercy on him. And not only on him—he had mercy on me, too. His death would have been one huge grief piled on top of all the others.
Yet I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, who is my brother and companion in labor, fellow soldier, your messenger, and he who ministered to my necessity.

But I thought it necessary to send to you my brother, fellow laborer, and fellow soldier, Epaphroditus (who is now your messenger and minister to my needs).

But I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus—my brother and co-worker and fellow soldier, as well as your messenger and aide to my need.
But for now, I think it is best to send Epaphroditus home to you. He has become my dear brother in the Lord. We have worked well together and fought great battles together, and he was an encouraging minister to me in my time of need.
But I counted it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, fellow soldier, and your apostle and servant of my need,
I thought I must send Epaphroditus, our Christian brother, back to you. He has worked with me and has also been a soldier of Christ with me. He was your messenger and he brought your gift for my needs.
And I guessed it needful to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and even-worker, and mine even-knight, but your apostle, and the minister of my need.

Saw the CHOICE film the other night.
Documentary about people from all over the world who decide to make their quality of life number one priority.
Take a moment - most of all, what do you want from life?
Is it a priority for you in each and every day?
I imagine not. You get distracted, just getting through the day.
Make what is most important to you a priority.
Keep coming back to that and you will have it sooner rather than later.
Actually making sure they got MORE from the life they are living.
But they were united in the quest for more.
The businessman thought his happiness and peace lay in making more money and retiring early.
The revolutionary thought her happiness and peace lay in political independence.
The raver thought his happiness and peace lay in drugs and the altered state.
They all discovered that more isn't about the outside.
It has nothing to do with your situation or circumstances.
Not what you do but how you do it.
It's all about your reaction, your inner focus, your ability to take nothing seriously.
It's all about your connection to the calm presence within.
The prisoners in jail for life said exactly the same thing.
When they looked outward they saw bars.
When they looked inward they found freedom.
In your life, as it is?
You can have it, I promise.
You need to make a change in the way you're living though.
Look within, make it about your levels of peace and presence.
Make it about how you react to life.
You're in charge there - you have control.
But make that inner choice and ALL of your outer choices become simpler.
Easier. Lighter. More straightforward. More fun.
And the best means I know of for that is meditation.
If you're serious about more, I have squeezed in a quick course before Christmas gets too mad.
Get a seat and I'll give you everything you need to know to live a life of quality.
And maybe even mean you can fly through Christmas, with all the social engagements that you might not want to be at with more ease than ever before.
PS. It's so ingrained that life has to be tough, it has to be hard.
What if that was just a lie?
What if you could have an amazing life?
Older PostWhen Bowel Demons Attack!


A student and scholar of comedy, Norm Macdonald finds David Letterman mysterious.
Any time Macdonald appeared on Letterman's Late Night and Late Show, he elevated his game, translating his nervous energy into a laser focus so that he could entertain the host, as much as possible. The audience was secondary; Macdonald, more than just telling jokes and compelling anecdotes, seemed to be there to probe an enigmatic yet formative force in his life.
And so, as David Letterman has purposely been rather present since leaving his talk show behind, making a number of public appearances that still seem rather exclusive, he made good on a promise to his friend, and was a guest on the 'season 3 premiere' of Macdonald's inconsistently available audio/video podcast, Norm Macdonald Live. And, just as they had a unique host-guest chemistry in the past (which cemented Macdonald's status as the greatest talk show guest of all time), this meeting is magical—monumental, even.
What most concerns Macdonald here is what made Letterman think he could be a talk show host when he left Indiana for Los Angeles. That's all Letterman wanted to do really, which baffles Macdonald who makes a telling point: unlike today's landscape, which features a million men who host talk shows and each aspire to be the 'king of late night,' when Letterman had that desire, there was really only his idol, Johnny Carson. Carson was almost exclusively the late night talk show host—a guy everyone in North America agreed they'd all watch and then discuss the next day. Now, that kind of cultural galvanization is impossible, which prompts Macdonald to ask certain kinds of questions.
Throughout this episode, Macdonald gets Letterman to reveal all manner of things.
Letterman talks about the rough, early days of his show biz career, his clinical, psychiatric assessments, how he began his professional relationship with Paul Shaffer, he goes into great, whimsical detail about his shocking heart surgery, why having a desk might well be the most important talk show convention, the history of talk shows (the podcast seems to be filmed with uncomfortably tight shots of people's faces in tribute to NBC's old Tomorrow Show), whether or not he slept with Mary Tyler Moore, the time he met Richard Nixon, and an affinity he shares with Macdonald for the late, off-kilter comedian, George Miller.
But on more than one occasion, Macdonald tries again to shift back to why. Why did Letterman think he could be a talk show host when the only job in that field was filled? Where did that audacity come from? And why did it work? Letterman is too modestly mindful of his ego to reveal how driven he must've been to pull this off but, in the asking, you can see why Macdonald reveres this man. Letterman had the talent and the motivation to create a job for himself that previously didn't really exist. And then the kicker: he perfected it.
It's a relaxed, barely edited conversation and feels like the kind of long-form talk you want to experience again and again. Unlike previous episodes of NML, which often feel like free-for-alls that are occasionally crass and are only intermittently earnest (Macdonald has put a premium on comedy here, including a dedicated joke-telling segment on every show), this is two fathers of comedy, gently exhibiting their great innovation in communication.
It's stunning. I'm going to watch it again.
In my first few months working on-air at CBC Radio 3 in 2008, I came up with a bit wherein I did an impression of Stuart McLean's popular program, Vinyl Cafe, but all the stories would be boring, vaguely dysfunctional ones about my own family.
When I casually mentioned to colleagues that I'd invited Stuart to be on the episode, they all told me I was nuts. He was the biggest star in CBC Radio and I barely even worked there. Well, I asked him to do a thing and he did it. I wanted him to really lay into me for making fun of him and he was amazing. He went after me and my family with such funny ferocity that I was overwhelmed. He really enjoyed playing 'Angry Stuart McLean' and it was amazing.
Afterwards, he told me it was great and he loved it. Total pro and forthcoming with his time. I'd see him at the Hillside Festival from time to time after that and he was always cool. I'm so sad he's gone. By all accounts, he was good and generous man. That was certainly my experience with him.
It's worth noting that, at its peak, there's no way a season of On Cinema at the Cinema would receive anything less than a perfect 10/10 or A+ rating. The show's unique blend of film expertise and insightful conversation between host Tim Heidecker and recurring guest Gregg Turkington made it the logical heir to the classic Siskel & Ebert series about film criticism. With the sudden and recent departure of Heidecker at the end of last season however, On Cinema has been placed in a precarious position, as evident in its bizarre season six premiere.
When Heidecker announced he was leaving the show and Hollywood for Jackson Hole, Wyoming at the end of season five, he rather begrudgingly suggested that Turkington could take over as host and that, unfortunately, is what has come to pass. There's no disputing Turkington's effusiveness for contemporary cinema and, at the best of times, his unassailable enthusiasm for movies and joy for life is infectious. Having said that, his first turn as On Cinema host this past week was a veritable trainwreck.
For some reason, Turkington's own guest expert was a videotaped version of himself, appearing on a crappy VCR/TV combo mounted on top of a cardboard box. Every time the real Turkington pressed play on a remote so that he could correspond with himself or prattle on about completing his disturbing #501moviesIn501days project, it made Heidecker's absence that much more painful to bear. That coupled with both Turkingtons delivering five-bags-of-popcorn™ reviews of Jupiter Ascending and The Spongebob Movie: Sponge Out of Water and an odd new segment called "Golden Age Comedies with W.C. Fields" rendered this episode useless and a disappointment.

Rarely parents will say nicely about their kids in front of other people. Usually, they'll say about how late we wake up in the morning or maybe how lame we are in the kitchen. But apparently, ibu aka my mom is not like that when it comes to work opportunity.
Last Eid, we went to visit our relatives as usual. This Eid was a little bit different; a little on the topic of my don't-know-when marriage proposal but more on work. This time, ibu had to ask every single aunties and uncles we met if their companies have any work opportunities. Some will be awkward about this situation, but I am actually glad for her to be like this.
Couple of weeks a go, I had an interview at international company. I thought it was only one interview session since they didn't mention any about second interview. However, last Monday, I had to go through second interview. Of course, my heart is full of colors and hopes because damn, it was a second interview. It means the luck could be there. Allah, please make it works. Since then, ibu keeps on mention about this particular job opportunity to everyone. She said to one of my friends that she's tired of me being at home. Okay ibu, okay.
I thank Allah for giving me such mom. Even though, I am afraid that the job is not for me (O'Allah please don't take that statement as my pray, I need that job; I want to pay my PTPTN)then everyone will know about my failure, yet, all in all it is great.
Thanks ibu for being a mom.

News Roundup and Notes: May 8, 2015
by Ruchi Parekh and Nadia O'Mara
Before the start of business, Just Security provides a curated summary of up-to-the-minute developments at home and abroad. Here's today's news.
U.S. Special Ops forces have begun training Syrian opposition rebels in Jordan, the aim being to create a politically moderate and militarily competent force capable of tackling the Islamic State. [New York Times' Matthew Rosenberg] Defense Secretary Ash Carter made the announcement yesterday that 90 fighters from Syrian forces will take part in the first program. The small group will be paid a stipend and provided some support upon returning to the battlefield. [DoD News]
Interventionist lawmakers criticized the program as inadequate, Sen. John McCain expressing no confidence "whatsoever" in the training process. Sen. Lindsey Graham described it as "fatally flawed," highlighting the challenge in isolating the Islamic State as the only permissible target. [The Guardian's Ben Jacobs and Sabrina Siddiqui]
Clashes around an Iraqi oil refinery at Baiji are ongoing, the Islamic State launching a fresh offensive to gain control of the complex early yesterday. Control of the refinery is considered a critical step toward reclaiming the militant's stronghold at Mosul. [Al Jazeera]
Defense Secretary Ash Carter criticized congressional efforts to directly arm Iraqi Kurds and Sunni tribal fighters in the battle against the Islamic State, emphasizing the importance of a unified Iraq. [The Hill's Kristina Wong]
An AUMF against the Islamic State would not "change one iota of activities on the ground," said Sen. Bob Corker yesterday, acknowledging the uphill battle to draft legislation satisfactory to lawmakers on both sides as well as the Obama administration, reports Jordain Carney. [The Hill] Other lawmakers criticized the delay, with Sen. Tim Kaine describing the time lag between military action and authorization as creating a "horrible precedent." [Buzzfeed News' Kate Nocera]
Turkey and Saudi Arabia are moving forward with a joint strategy to topple the Assad regime in Syria, the "strategic alliance" arising out of mutual frustration with "American indecision," writes Desmond Butler. [AP]
New suspected chemical weapon attacks were reported in Syria's Idlib province yesterday by local activists and a medical professional; several dozen people are said to have suffered from asphyxiation. [AP's Sarah El Deeb]
Three fighters from Hezbollah have been killed in border clashes with Islamist militants along the Syria-Lebanon frontier this week. [AP]
U.S.-led airstrikes continue. The U.S. and coalition military forces carried out four airstrikes against Islamic State targets in Syria between 8am May 6 and 8am May 7. Separately, military forces conducted a further 14 strikes against targets in Iraq. [Central Command]
Saudi Arabia has proposed a five-day humanitarian pause in hostilities in Yemen, contingent upon Houthi rebels' acceptance of the deal. The Saudi foreign minister made the announcement at a news conference with Secretary of State John Kerry in Riyadh yesterday. The ceasefire would apply to the whole country. [Wall Street Journal's Ahmed Al Omran and Hakim Almasmari]
A U.S. drone strike has killed Nasser al-Ansi, a top AQAP militant who featured in a video claiming responsibility for the Charlie Hebdo attacks in Paris earlier this year. Site Intelligence cites a statement from the group saying Ansi was killed last month; there has been no U.S. confirmation. [BBC]
The coalition promised a "harsh response" to cross-border shelling this week which the Saudi's blame on Houthi rebels. A Saudi defense spokesman said the rebel group has "crossed the red line" and would be dealt with differently from this point on. [Al Arabiya News]
Saudi-led forces carried out a number of airstrikes in Saada province yesterday; the area is a Houthi stronghold. [Reuters]
SURVEILLANCE, TECHNOLOGY, and PRIVACY
A federal appeals court has ruled that the NSA's bulk collection of telephone metadata is not authorized by Section 215 of the Patriot Act. The three judge panel of the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York chose not to order the end of the NSA program, allowing Congress an opportunity to debate the issue ahead of the June 1 sunset of Section 215. The court did not address the constitutional question, including whether the program violated the Fourth Amendment. [New York Times' Charlie Savage and Jonathan Weisman; Washington Post's Ellen Nakashima] The Wall Street Journal's Ashby Jones offers five takeaways on the NSA ruling.
The decision is impacting the "already rancorous debate" among lawmakers over NSA reform. Senate leaders Mitch McConnell and Harry Reid exchanged heated words following the ruling, and remained divided on extending or reforming the Patriot Act provisions. [Politico's Alex Byers and Kate Tummarello] The decision also highlighted the sharp differences between the Republican presidential candidates on the issue, reports Lesley Clark. [McClatchy DC] And Hillary Clinton has ended her silence on the NSA's practices, expressing support for the passage of the reform bill, the USA Freedom Act. [The Hill's Julian Hattem]
The ruling is "the most important rebuke yet of the government's abuses" under the Patriot Act, writes the New York Times editorial board. Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal editorial board calls it "vainglorious judging," explaining what the Second Circuit gets wrong.
The decision is being viewed as vindicating Edward Snowden by those in support of the former NSA agent, who argue he was right to disclose the NSA's surveillance practices. [Politico's Nahal Toosi and Josh Gerstein]
Germany has reduced its intelligence sharing with the U.S., following reports that intelligence services assisted the NSA in spying on European allies, according to German officials. [Wall Street Journal's Anton Troianovski]
The Senate easily passed an Iran bill that would allow congressional review of a final nuclear deal with Tehran, with the 98-1 vote preserving the bipartisan compromise that was being threatened by GOP amendments earlier in the week. [Politico's Burgess Everett]
A majority of House Democrats are supporting the nuclear diplomacy; 150 Democratic lawmakers have written to President Obama urging him to "exhaust every avenue" in his diplomatic efforts with Tehran. [The Hill's Mike Lillis]
Saudi Arabia is weighing developing nuclear weapons to match Iran's ambitions, which is likely to trigger a dangerous arms race in the "world's most volatile region," writes Yaroslav Trofimov. [Wall Street Journal]
Former Guantanamo Bay detainee Omar Khadr has been released on bail by an appeal court in Alberta, Canada. The Canadian government vigorously protested a lower court's decision to grant bail to Khadr—a former child solider captured in Afghanistan in 2002—while he appeals his conviction by a U.S. military tribunal. [New York Times' Ian Austen]
Khadr is an "extreme case study in modern military justice," his confession reportedly extracted following torture, and his initial capture taking place at such a young age, writes Joseph Brean. [National Post]
OTHER DEVELOPMENTS
France has launched a formal criminal investigation into allegations of sexual assault on children by French peacekeepers in the Central African Republic. [The Guardian's Kim Willsher and Sandra Laville] French prosecutors said the UN stalled an investigation into the allegations, refusing to make an employee available for questioning due to immunity considerations. [Wall Street Journal's Nadya Masidlover and Joe Lauria]
FBI agents were aware that one of the gunmen in this weekend's Texas attack had expressed interest in going to the Muhammad drawings contest, though there was no intelligence indicating he was planning an attack. [Washington Post's Adam Goldman]
Reforms aimed at protecting service members from sexual assault are "clearly not sufficient," writes the Washington Post editorial board, expressing hope that Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand's efforts to "correct a major defect in how these crimes are investigated … gains traction in Congress."
Two New York women pleaded not guilty to terrorism related charges yesterday in a Brooklyn federal court. The women were arrested last month on a charge of conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction. [Reuters' Nate Raymond]
North Korea has expanded its nuclear arsenal considerably over recent years, while all eyes have been on Iran's nuclear program. David E. Sanger explores the current situation and potential threat posed. [New York Times] North Korea warned of "unannounced targeted strikes" against the South's navy today, accusing South Korea of violating its territorial waters. [Reuters]
The killing never stopped on the front lines of the Ukrainian conflict, regardless of the Minsk agreement, writes Anna Nemtsova, noting the shortage of weapons and transport within Ukrainian units. [The Daily Beast] Two Americans, Michael Pillsbury and Gordon Humphrey, are using their "Cold War playbook" to try and secure U.S. military support to counter Russian advances in Ukraine. Adam Entous provides more details. [Wall Street Journal]
Mali's Tuareg separatist rebels have escalated violent attacks in the country, a possible attempt to gain ground ahead of signing a peace agreement on May 15. [AP's Carley Petesch]

Review: John Scofield/Dirty Loops, Montreux Jazz Festival 2014
Posted on July 20, 2014 by Thomas Rees
Midway through the Überjam set, a side door opens to my right and Dirty Loops file in to take their seats. Scofield is in full flow; head back, eyes closed, mouth falling open and closing absently, as if chewing on his tremolo-tinged holds like they're strands of toffee. When the Swedish YouTube sensations file out again just two numbers later I almost feel like stopping them. They would have done well to stick around.
Some sketchy vocals and less-than-convincing originals aside, their uncompromisingly heavy jazz-pop fusion made for a strong first half. Apocalyptic reimaginings of Justin Bieber, Adele, and Lady Gaga shot through with falsetto wails, throaty bass lines, explosive drum breaks, and crackling electronics, whipped up the crowd and saw the group return for two encores. But though their energy and commitment couldn't be faulted, they tried to do too much and often overstretched themselves. Grooves were cluttered, transitions between sections seemed a little forced and, on the whole, the quality of their writing and arranging didn't match their considerable talents as performers.
Not so Scofield's quartet (pictured left) whose set of originals, taken from the first Überjam record (2002) and the follow-up, Überjam Deux (2013), was as flawless in its conception as it was in execution. The ensemble play with all the freedom you'd expect from a jam session, changing gear on a whim and keeping things flexible, yet it never gets boring or feels lacking in direction. In part this is thanks to the wide-ranging references. Tracks like Curtis Knew andAl Green Song were nods to Motown, while elsewhere there were snatches of country music, rock, reggae, and dissonant electronica. Textures and forms were similarly varied and provided the perfect platform for imaginative improvisations.
Scofield featured on almost every track but it felt as if he could have played another 10 sets before running out of ideas. Meanwhile drummer Terence Higgins and bassist Andy Hess kept the grooves locked down and Arvi Bortnick (author of much of the group's material) added layers of choppy rhythm guitar, watery electronics, distorted modem-like effects and dubby laptop work, editing and altering the ensemble's sound throughout the gig.
But perhaps most impressive of all was how much the group didn't play. Melodies and grooves, from the drum and bass-tinged funk of Snap Crackle Pop to the shuffling blues of Boogie Stupid, were simple and pared down, free from unnecessary flash and all the tighter and more engaging for it. So much was implied without being stated explicitly, whether in Scofield's lines, Bortnick's masterful comping, Higgins's blistering drum breaks, or the understated polyphonic brilliance of Hess's bass. It was this minimalism and maturity, more than anything else, that set the Überjam Band apart. For all their talent, it's something that Dirty Loops still need to acquire, a lesson they've yet to learn.

Once in the deepest, and technically best, position you can achieve (and making sure that you have tucked the tail as much as you can AND have the back leg's hip as far forward as you can), then try to drag the back leg forwards for five seconds or so.
Then, take a breath in, re-apply all the cues, and as you breathe out, try to straighten the back leg's knee a little more. This will be hard work.
This sequence is the best possible warm-up for both a quadriceps and a hip flexor stretch. This sequence is unique in that it is both a strong stretch (if you add the contraction) and an excellent strengthening movement—try holding the bottom position for two minutes (we have done *five* in the Advanced classes).

Derek Rosser's exciting collection of true-life stories and childhood adventures from the inter-war years.
Born in the year 1930, the year the airship R101 made its final disastrous voyage – life was exciting but very different to that experienced by today's youngsters and teenagers. I am sure that we enjoyed life rather more than our modern counterparts. Not the joys of violent video games and computers – but rather the simpler pleasures that come from exercising the imagination. As an only child, with the aid of half a dozen lead soldiers and a toy fort (made by my father from scrap timber) I conquered India and extended the boundaries of the Empire.
Q1) Can you tell us a little about yourself and your book 'To Boldly Go'?
I retired early from a career of thirty-five years at sea as a Navigating Officer and eventually as Captain of VLCCs (Very Large Crude Carriers) to the west coast of Canada, which incidentally was still close to the marine environment. A natural progression one would agree for a retired naval person. In the fullness of time, I built my own boat and cruised the waters of British Columbia, since the urge to return to sea didn't just evaporate. Prior to this I had never given much thought to writing but, as it happened, on completing the building of a boat I felt the endeavour should be repeated. This feeling was resolved by writing about the experience rather than the expense of actually repeating the performance.
To Boldly Go is a daring adventure of my attempt to sail solo round the world. This book recounts my amazing adventures and experiences of a nautical nature after retirement.
Q2) When did you realise you wanted to be a writer? What sparked the desire to pen your first book?
Having described my feelings and experiences on building a boat this sparked an interest in writing and subsequently I wrote about Captain James Cook; particularly the events leading up to his murder by the Hawaiians and the little known efforts by his successor to retrieve his remains for burial. After my attempt to sail single handed in a circumnavigation with all the trials and tribulations, although not succeeding in the attempt it was a natural progression for me to share the adventure with a like minded and interested audience and also as an account of my adventure for family and friends.
Q3) When you write what emotion do you seek to evoke in your readers?
I would hope that the overriding emotion would be one of understanding that the venture was to satisfy a need to get up and go to prove to myself that the attempt can be achieved if one has the determination. I also hope there is some feeling of compassion that I had tried, although the endeavour was not concluded successfully. Furthermore I hope that my passion will be evident and the narrative will ring true with the reader.
A bold and fundamental message about the Kingdom of God–skilfully tackled and powerfully delivered.
This book arises from twenty five years of study and a passion to see people grasp the extent and significance of the Kingdom of God and to apply it in their own lives. This message is not an addendum to the gospel but is in fact the gospel.
"…From the provocative title through to the last page I challenge and inform the reader's understanding of the Kingdom of God and its implications in the here and now. This is not just a theological diatribe, but a reasoned and gritty analysis of what the kingdom of God actually is and how it affects our lifestyle, values and hopes" says Richard Bradbury.
A pertinent topic for all Christians.
"A central and pertinent topic, skilfully tackled with insight"
War-time evacuee Derek Smith recounts his wild and exhilarating evacuee stories in a new book.
"…Writing this book was at times a strange experience, so intense were the memories that I often felt that I was that nine year old boy again. It was while in the country I was turned from city fool–into a country boy at heart" says author Derek Smith.
