The Scarborough nomination came from Caroline Rhodes, who said: "Walk from Scarborough Sea Life centre all along the front, round the cliff, passing Scarborough Spa Theatre and end at The Clock Café for a cup of tea and the best homemade scone I have tasted.
Living Street regional director Jenny Wiles said: "I'm really pleased to see Scarborough taking the title and representing the many great walks the North East and Yorkshire boast.
"The poll was light-hearted but we wanted to get across the simple message that by going for a walk a few times a week people can enjoy noticeable health benefits.
"As we know, physical activity greatly reduces your risk of coronary heart disease so a romantic walk is great for your heart in more ways than one.
Scarborough MP Robert Goodwill added: "Scarborough is home to many fantastic walks so I'm thrilled that this one has been recognised nationally.


Wetzel finished his 2018 campaign with the Cardinals on injured reserve due to a neck injury. He's a utility lineman, as he played both left and right guard along with right tackle before suffering this injury. The 27-year-old should have a shot at a starting gig in training camp.

Last night at our dock party we got to say one last goodbye (for now) to most of our closest friends and family, but even then, it still didn't quite seem real, I knew we were leaving the next day, it just wasn't sinking in.
Then today a few people stopped at the dock to wish us well, both those we had met before and some that we hadn't. I loved hearing their excitement and support for us, very reassuring as we were just an hour or two from shoving off. On our way out to the channel we had some friends follow us out and give us an air horn send-off while others were hooting and hollering from their boat with excitement. It gave me chills and almost had me a little choked up. It was right then that it hit me of what we are actually doing and it took me a little by surprise I guess. I'm actually quite surprised I didn't have a meltdown on the way out, I thought for sure I would!
We got out to the lake, the temp dropped about 10 degrees and we immediately were swallowed up by a wall of fog. And we managed to make it a whopping 10 miles for the day. I would have liked to have gotten a bigger start on our first day but winds were only 4-7kts and it was foggy the whole way, no burn-off like we'd been hoping for. We were extremely grateful for our radar, we were able to track the boats we could hear but not see and it also allowed us to let our buddy boat know what was around him as he didn't have radar. We had a couple boats come flying by us pretty closely a couple times....pretty freaky when you can hear them, see them heading at you on radar but not see until they're a hundred yards from you. We see them but do they see us??? Moving at 2-4kts we weren't really in a position to perform any speedy evasive maneuvers.
But even at our dismal speeds, we sailed the whole way. I was a little surprised Ron didn't turn on the engine...but then again we're cruisers, we aren't in any hurry!
A pretty good start to our new lifestyle I'd have to say!
And Happy 10th Birthday to this old lady, what a way to celebrate!
Was fun sending you off today! Took some pics but unsure how to send them to you.
Thanks for the send off, we loved it!! You can send the pics to skeltoncrew@hotmail.com.
Congratulations!!! And so it begins!! Officially Cruisers!
Congratulations! This is going to be soooo much fun! Keep up the good work on moving conservatively, and not keeping to a schedule! Some days you sail through the night because the wind is good, or that's what you need to do to hit the tides correctly; some days you just stay where you are, because it's not safe somewhere else or it's too awesome where you are!
Some days won't be fun, but that's part of the experience! Remember you are both there for the experience, so yelling at each other probably won't help the situation.
This is such a fun time in your journey!! Hooray!
Soooo excited for the Skelton Crew! We'll be following along on the blog and heading north ourselves Tuesday afternoon...with any luck we'll catch up to you before you round the mitten tip. Congrats!
Awesome you guys, we have been following for some time and we were happy to see you get under way, and even on the target date! Excellent. We wish you calm seas and fair winds.

The Sniper hunted and killed Axis officers, especially Gestapo, all across Europe, and then all across the Philippines.
5 Recommended Reading
Nobody knew who The Sniper really was, or where he would strike next. He killed high ranking German Army and Gestapo officers in Austria,[1] in Berlin,[2][3] in the Black Forest,[4] in Munich,[5] in Bordeaux,[6] at the Great Caves of Sevelinges,[7] in Paris,[8][9] and elsewhere in France,[10][11] in Greece,[3] in Czechoslovakia,[3] in Holland,[3] in London,[12] on the North Sea,[13] in Norway,[3] on the Swiss/Italian Border,[14] and in Yugoslavia,[3] as well as in Egypt.[15]
Some time in 1942 he established a secret lair in the Eiffel Tower, in Paris.[16]
In late 1943, the Sniper shifted his hunting grounds from Europe to the Far East, where he hunted Imperial Japanese military officers in the Philippines,[17] and elsewhere. There he met his first recurring adversary, the wily and deadly Suratai, of the Black Dragon Society. He became the leader of a group of guerrillas.
Marksmanship The Sniper had seemingly perfect aim, under all conditions of light, distance, wind, weather, or combat situations.
Hunting He was a master of all big-game hunting techniques.
Intimidation The Sniper spent a great deal of time, effort, and ingenuity in scaring the living hell out of his prey.
Disguise The Sniper relied heavily on wigs and fake beards for some of his trickery.[18]
Leadership In the Pacific Theater, the Sniper led a group of Filipino and American Guerrillas.[19]
Multilingualism The Sniper could understand and speak Japanese,[20] along with several European languages.
For a brief time, in Paris, he had a fighter plane.[21]
Rifle, with scope
This version of the Sniper, including all history and corresponding appearances, was erased from existence following the collapse of the original Multiverse in the 1985–86 Crisis on Infinite Earths limited series. Even though versions of the character may have since appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.
In early issues, the Sniper often narrated his own stories. This ended with Military Comics #13.
Starting in 1943, after his move to the Philippines, the Sniper carried some cartridges with his name etched on them.[22]

A contingent of 12 members from the Sarawak Dayak Graduates Association (SDGA) including their families and friends joined the Sarawak Volunteers 'Walk of Love' on Saturday, 5 April 2014, together with an over 9,000 strong crowd reflecting the theme 'We Care We Share', on the streets. This is one of the activities which the members of SDGA usually took part to support activities organised by the Ministry of Women, Welfare and Family Development.
The walk was to show support and sympathy for the family members of those on board MH370 as well as support for the government in the search of the missing plane. Most of the 125 contingents carried banners with messages of support.
Leading the walk was Puan Sri Datuk Jamilah Anu, the wife of the Chief Minister, along with Women, Welfare and Family Development Minister Datuk Fatimah Abdullah; Early Childhood and Family Development Assistant Minister Rosey Yunus and Ministry of Women, Welfare and Family Development Permanent Secretary Rodziah Morshidi.

James Levine conducts Boulez and Mozart at Weill Recital Hall
Mémoriale ('…explosante-fixe…' Originel)
Dérive 1
Improvisation sur Mallarmé I
Improvisation sur Mallarmé II
Divertimento in B flat, K287
Jo Ellen Miller (soprano)
The Metropolitan Opera Orchestra Chamber Ensemble
Reviewed by: Gene Gaudette
Reviewed: 6 December, 2009
Venue: Weill Recital Hall, Carnegie Hall, New York City
James Levine conducting Boulez? Don't look so surprised.
Levine has been a long-time champion of contemporary music. As music director of the Munich Philharmonic he conducted European debuts of major works by Charles Wuorinen, John Harbison and other prominent composers, and he has recorded works by Elliott Carter, Gunther Schuller and John Cage with the Chicago Symphony for Deutsche Grammophon.
Levine drew surprising contrast between Mémoriale, dating from 1985 and written in memory of Ensemble InterContemporain flautist Laurence Beauregard, and Dérive 1, composed in 1986. Both works run just-under seven minutes and are written for small ensembles. Mémoriale was spun out in what seemed to be a single long phrase; the solo flute line, played with shimmering beauty by Stefan Ragnar Höskulosson, unfolds in a succession of sustained notes and melodic gestures rendered with trills, flutter-tonguing, and exploiting the sonorities particularly of the instrument's lower range, as the ensemble accompanies with gestures that alternate between percussive and pizzicato scintillations and long, legato chords and sustained pitches. Dérive 1 plays quite differently: a procession of almost equal-length pitches and chords, sometimes elaborated with filigreed, almost ornamental figures. The players' and Levine's attention to dynamics and balances brought substantial character, color and contrast to these two short works.
The two "Improvisations sur Mallarmé", settings of "Le vierge, le vivace et le bel aujourd'hui" and "Une dentelle s'abolit", were composed in 1957, and represent Boulez's first attempt to incorporate improvisatory material into his works. A second, more heavily orchestrated version of "Improvisation sur Mallarmé I" would find its way into "Pli selon pli"; Levine and the ensemble performed the first version, for soprano, percussion and harp. Again, Levine invoked strong differentiation between the two works by a composer in transition – the first improvisation almost seeming an appendix to Boulez's breakthrough work, "Le Marteau sans Maître", the second Improvisation hinting at alternately crystalline and complex textures that would come to fruition in his chamber and orchestral works of the 1960s and 1970s. Jo Ellen Miller's bright timbre and dynamic control suits this music and the texts very well; the performances also led this listener to conclude that these works fare better in the recital hall than in a larger venue and within the symphonic frame of "Pli selon pli".
The second half of the program could not have contrasted more strongly. Levine opted to present Mozart's B flat Divertimento, originally intended for string quartet and horns, with an ensemble of eighteen string players (6 first violins, 5 seconds, 4 violas, 2 cellos and 1 double bass). An additional cello and bass would have probably compensated for a bass-shy sound, and the dry acoustics of Weill Recital Hall exacerbated some intonation issues in the violins (especially in the first movement) and a couple of horn clinkers, but overall the performance was a merry and tuneful jaunt very much in the 'old school' tradition. There was nothing in the way of period-instrument practise here; Levine conjured phrasing that combined the clarity of George Szell with the nuance of Josef Krips, and elicited some particularly incisive contrasts in the charming Theme and Variations, with some beautiful melodic playing in the Adagio.
The audience, which filled the hall to near capacity, showed equal and robust appreciation for both halves of the concert, and other than a few coughs here and there was among the quieter groups with which I have shared an evening of music all season.

THE MYSTERY OF EDWIN DROOD (1935) – Blu-Ray Review
Jeffrey Knight December 19, 2021 Blu-rayFilm ReviewMThe 1930's
Claude Rains and David Manners Meet Our Great Expectations in This Adaptation of an Unfinished Dickens Novel.
DIRECTED BY STUART WALKER / 1935
BLU-RAY STREET DATE NOVEMBER 2, 2021
KINO LORBER STUDIO CLASSICS
I'll admit, I kind of loved The Mystery of Edwin Drood. It's an adaptation of an unfinished Charles Dickens novel. Dickens died in the middle of writing it, but that didn't stop Universal Studios from supplying the answer to the mystery (which Dickens never ended up doing, officially). The movie is a bit of a mess, narratively. But thanks to several strong performances (chiefly those of Claude Rains and David Manners), and some bold directorial choices, The Mystery of Edwin Drood is a fascinating and fun watch.
Rains plays John Jasper, a church choir master by day, opium addict by night (the movie never comes right out and says 'opium,' but it's pretty clear what's going on and his supplier is credited as 'Opium Woman,' so you don't need to be that sharp to figure things out). Jasper also lusts after a young pupil of his, Rosa Bud (played by Heather Angel). Rosa is engaged to the eponymous Edwin Drood (Manners), who also happens to be Jasper's nephew.
Tossed into this Victorian melodramatic stew are a pair of siblings, Neville and Helena Landless, who have come to England from Ceylon following Neville's attack on their stepfather. Neville has a bit of a hair-trigger temper, you see, and when he draws a knife on Edwin over a quarrel one evening, Jasper makes careful note of it.
Thus the stage is set for a mystery when Edwin disappears after a frightful storm. That's as far as Dickens got in his novel. Given that Dickens doesn't supply an ending, it's still pretty easy to see where he's planning on taking things. The mystery of the murderer isn't too hard to figure out, but what makes this movie so compelling isn't so much the whodunnit as much as it is in how the story unfolds.
The opening sequence, for instance, is this phantasmagorical montage. It's an opium-induced vision by Jasper that serves, as film historian David Del Valle puts it in his commentary, as a sort of trailer for the upcoming movie. It then makes use of a clever dissolve as Jasper leaves his opium den and resumes his everyday life as the town's choir director. As the story unfolds, director Stuart Walker, uses gothic sets, ominous shadows, cobwebs, and colorful side characters to bring Charles Dickens's novel to life.
Walker is assisted ably by some strong performances, particularly those of Rains and Manners. We'd expect Rains to be good, and he does not disappoint. His Jasper is tormented by inner demons and he can barely conceal his contempt for everyone in his life, save Rosa. He confesses his disdain to Drood in a monolog that focuses on Rains's face as he scowls and glowers with the best of them. But Manners, best known to audiences as Jonathan Harker in Tod Browning's Dracula, is a revelation here. Stiff and bland in Dracula, Manners is more relaxed and personable as Edwin. His performance has an easy going charm about it. Manners was a popular leading man for Universal back in the 30's, and here it's easy to see why.
If Drood has any failings at all, it's that the narrative seems overly rushed in places. Certain events feel elided, even when they seem like they'd be important to the movie's narrative. I admit it took me a bit to realize that two characters had broken off their engagement because the scene where they actually decide to do that doesn't exist. Likewise, a scene where two feuding characters patch up their differences doesn't happen. Drood does give plenty of space in its 89-minute runtime to colorful side characters like the officious mayor, or Durdles the gravedigger and the young boy he employs to throw rocks at him so Durdles will go home at a decent hour instead of out drinking. These characters are a lot of fun, so that's not really a complaint about them, but it feels like the story is skipping ahead where it shouldn't, and dawdling a little too long where it doesn't need to.
On its release, Drood was warmly, if not enthusiastically, received by critics of the time, with most praising the performances and Walker's moody direction. Like with Universal's previous Dickens adaptation, Great Expectations, audiences failed to show up. Kino Lorber's recent blu-ray release gives modern audiences a chance to acquaint themselves with this film. The blu-ray comes with the aforementioned audio commentary, and a collection of trailers for related films.

Wrap On Agreement
The words "Terms of Use" of the Sunday Business Post are the following language in the legal agreement: To be most effective, narrowed wrap licenses must be flagged outside the box, visible through the narrowed wrap, which informs the consumer that the software is copyrighted and that the end user is subject to the terms of the agreement in the box. Then, the full conditions of the license are printed inside the discount box. Otherwise, certain factors may later influence the applicability of an agreement: these legal agreements are contracts that both parties – the company and the user – are required to act accordingly. Most agreements, at least on websites, are usually placed and connected from the bottom up on the website: First, a license is the official permission of the owner of something to use the same thing in some way. When you think about licensing, most people think of licensing agreements that are signed between the two parties. For example, if you load Steam and its terms are updated, check the license they granted you as a consumer and agree to a contract on how you use your service. A browse-Wrap agreement can be obtained by using a website or hyperlink or a small disclaimer on the page. It can only be forced if the browser user is suitable for it. To obtain consent, the Browse Wrap agreement should be striking, indicate that there is an agreement and indicate where it may be. Courts examine, on a case-by-case basis, the applicability of "wrap" agreements and there are no "clear" rules for determining whether a given agreement is sufficiently visible. However, on the basis of pivert, some practitioners believe that courts in the United States have found almost uniformly that these types of agreements are enforceable (Conference America Inc. v. Conexant Sys.
Inc., M.D. Ala., 2:05-cv-01088, 9/10/07). Indeed, the courts found it to be enforceable even though the client did not read them (Druyan v. Jagger, S.D.N.Y., 06-cv-13729, 29.8.07). JDate moved to have the business transferred to California, as agreed in the license agreement on the jDate site. Zaltz had found that she "did not believe that she accepted such a clause." This allows the user to declare consent to the entire agreement before proceeding. Although sign-in-wraps applicability is less secure, we found that many courts impose sign-in-wrap agreements in circumstances where the language and layout of the site emphasize the user`s ability to access the contract and reasonably communicate the existence of the contract to the user. An unacceptable treaty is an agreement that would otherwise not be in agreement with a reasonably informed person. I.Lan showed the agreement and had to click on a box with the words "I agree." Include a notification with links to your legal agreements if a user creates an account or buys a good or service. Web Wrap, click-Wrap and Browse-Wrap are related terms that refer to licensing agreements in software downloaded or used on the Internet. Claims of narrowed films are unsigned authorization agreements that justify that the recognition of the terms of the claim on the customer be demonstrated by the opening of the retractable coil grouping or by any other grouping of the product, by the use of the product or by any other specific instrument. Shrink Wrap agreement has given rise to many debates and controversies, such as the incompetence of the terms of the agreement before the purchase of the product.

Mediation As A Valuable Tool in Family Law
What is mediation and how can it be useful in settlement of my family law case?
Mediation is a process by which parties agree to attend one or more meetings with a neutral third party mediator, whose goal is to facilitate communication to reach a settlement of all or part of the legal issues that are in dispute. It is an alternative form of dispute resolution. It is a collaborative process as compared to the adversarial nature of litigation to resolve disputes. The process of mediation can save valuable time and financial resources in comparison to the resources involved in litigation. Resolving disputes through mediation allows parties to take control of the process and move forward. In many cases, parties are free to form new relationships. For example, parties who reach an agreement in matters related to child custody can go on to create a new co-parenting relationship.
What if my spouse and I reach an agreement?
When parties reach a resolution through the process of mediation, a summary is drafted by the mediator that is then used to draft a contract that will be binding on both parties.
Parties to a lawsuit who reach resolution by agreement through the process of mediation to all or part of their legal issues, their agreement can be entered by consent before the court as a judgment of the court if the court so accepts the agreement. Alternatively, the agreement can be memorialized into a written agreement, or contract, that is binding on both parties.
What happens if we don't reach an agreement?
If, after mediation, parties fail to come to an agreement as to their legal matters, they are free to continue to litigate their legal issues before the court. The terms of settlement offered during mediation are not admissible in future proceedings.

'Avengers: Infinity War' is the Crowning Jewel of the MCU
Nicole C April 26, 2018 Leave a comment
In the culmination of ten years of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Avengers: Infinity war may be its crowning jewel and boy does it shine brightly in your face. It's hard to come up with the appropriate words that adequately describes it as adjectives like intense, emotional, beautiful, tragic, and glorious don't seem to do it justice.
Infinity War is the third motion picture in the Avengers series and it picks up with Earth's mightiest heroes disbanded with Captain America, Black Widow, Falcon, and the Scarlet Witch hiding as fugitives, while the others like Iron Man, War Machine, and the Vision still on the side of world governments who want to put powered folks on a registry. Without going into too much storyline spoilers, Thanos is the big game changer as the intergalactic being of enormous strength and power arrives searching for the Infinity Stones. We've only seen bits of the purple titan so far in the MCU, but its arguable that this film is more about him than his foes.
Infinity War shows audiences that Thanos isn't simply a massive evil villain. While he certainly does horrific things, we discover what drives and motivates this character in a way that is surprising and even understandable in moments. Upon seeing the trailer for the first time I actually had an issue with the CGI, yet at some point while watching the movie I completely forgot about that and was just focused on Josh Brolin's portrayal of the colossus individual. Not only did we learn about Thanos's agenda, but also his backstory and his complicated relationship with his adopted daughter Gamora. Their relationship is one of the most significant aspects of the film. The dynamic between the two was riveting and Zoe Saldana did such a fantastic job in showing her character's struggle as Gamora both hated and loved Thanos.
While there are definitely a lot of things happening on screen, nearly each part served a purpose and gave each character a pivotal moment to shine. Tony finds himself meeting Stephen Strange and Wong for the first time but is also reunited with Bruce and Peter. Thor is rescued by the Guardians of the Galaxy and embarks on a side quest with Rocket and teenage Groot. Wanda and the Vision are initially together stealing a few moments of intimacy, but soon find themselves reunited with Steve, Natasha, and Sam. Throughout the film different groups from across the MCU come together and surprisingly it works without feeling forced or pointless. There was cohesion as each subplot eventually tied to the larger narrative and at the end we are left with a huge what happens next cliffhanger.
A central theme of the throughout the plot is sacrifice for the greater good and there are so many difficult and painful moments to watch as we've been with so many of these heroes since Iron Man was first released in 2008 (and even longer for devout comic book fans). All of these characters have experienced loss and as many faced competing egos, their differences needed to be put aside in the fight against Thanos to save the universe. Infinity War is heartbreaking at times, but it's what makes it so good because there is real loss and consequences. These imperfect heroes are truly struggling with the stakes being so high and we don't know how it's going to end. The film is akin to The Empire Strikes Back in that way and the impossible situation makes audiences root even harder for the good guys.
There are those who may be tired of superhero movies and feel that the film industry is too saturated with them. As a fan of the genre, I am tired of bad superhero movies, but this is not one of them. As phase three is ending and phase four soon to begin, Infinity War is a perfect transition to enter a bold new chapter in the MCU. The world building from the last ten years and eighteen films have made this a satisfying and gratifying movie viewing experience.
Avengers: Infinity War hits theaters on April 27, 2018 with Avengers 4 arriving next May 13, 2019.

Chattanooga start-up Text Request experiencing significant growth
(EDITOR'S NOTE: The annual "Startup Week Chattanooga" is underway and what better way to celebrate it than a story about one of the city's recent new ventures that has experienced several significant milestones.)
By Tom Ballard, Chief Alliance Officer, PYA
Five years after its founding, Chattanooga's Text Request is poised for significant growth after doubling its annual recurring revenue (ARR) in the last year and more than tripling its employee headcount since 2018.
"I'm excited for our future," says Brian Elrod, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer. Part of that optimism comes from the fact that the numbers cited above – 16 new employees added to just six and $2 million in ARR – have come without any outside investment.
During a recent telephone interview, Elrod said the company that offers text messaging software for businesses and other organizations has signed-up customers in all 50 states, Canada and the Caribbean.
Those clients are in 74 different industry sectors – everything from accountants, clubs and credit unions at the first of the alphabet to private schools, retailers and realtors near the end. Elrod notes that two segments in particular – staffing and home services – have helped propel its growth.
Regardless of sector, however, Text Request's growth has been fueled by one all-important fact: it identified a real customer need or pain point.
"We realized everyone's favorite form of communication was texting, but businesses did not have a software tool to manage that process," Elrod says. "We give companies all the features and tools they need to communicate in an organized fashion."
The Text Request solution allows users to replace the phone calls and emails that they have been using with the more popular texting without losing the functionality and other features that keep some people tied to email.
"We give you a professional way to text so you can reach people faster," the company states on its webpage. The product allows Text Request's messaging service and all of its features to be added to a client's current landline, toll-free, or VOIP number. By adding Click-to-Text and SMS Chat to a website or Google ads, Text Request's clients can convert more mobile viewers.
The company has posted 19 case examples from various sectors on its website.
As far as the future, Elrod sees several growth opportunities. One is simply more penetration into the various sectors it already serves. Another is expanding on an international basis. Further product enhancements will also drive growth.
"The product is incredible, we treat our customers like family, we're profitable, and the potential for growth is massive," Elrod says. "Imagine or remember what it was like when email first rolled out. Not having email for your business was essentially like handing your customers over to your competitors. That's what it's like if you're not utilizing texting, and small businesses are waking up to that."
What's it like growing a tech-based in Chattanooga? For Elrod, it's not his first start-up rodeo; he founded two previous ventures, albeit in the retail space.
"Attracting talent has not been an issue," he says. "All-in-all, we've got a good deal of talent here. Chattanooga starts with being a place people want to live because of the lifestyle."

Tag: David Foster Wallace
"The End of the Tour," "Trainwreck," and a great summer for movies
This summer movie season is on point. Last year, I don't think I saw a movie in the theaters between June and October. In 2015, I can't keep myself away. And what's better – everything I've seen has been terrific. Two movies I saw this weekend, The End of the Tour and Trainwreck, were especially satisfying, and they both inspired a lot of thoughts, so I'm just going to lay it all out. (Plus, one of the resolutions I made for my 25th year, which began last month, was to write about every new movie I see in that year. This post is relegated to movies I've seen in theaters, but I do need to get around to some new-to-me films I've seen recently.)
I remember thinking "oh yeah, that makes perfect sense" when I first heard Jason Segel was playing David Foster Wallace in a movie. Because it does make sense. Segel is not a dead ringer for Wallace, but he's pretty darn reminiscent of him. Especially with the bandana. I was stoked for this movie from the get-go.
My first experience with David Foster Wallace came in college, when I was assigned part of A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again in a class on travel writing. I distinctly remember reading a couple pages and then skimming only as much as would get me through the class discussion. I'm not proud of that now, but the class at least put his name in my brain. Pastors at my church reference a passage from his 2005 Kenyon College commencement speech with some frequency ("Because here's something else that's true. In the day-to-day trenches of adult life, there is no such thing as atheism. There is no such thing as not worshipping. Everybody worships. The only choice we get is what to worship…."). Most recently, Vulture re-published a short story Wallace originally wrote for Playboy in 1988, in which he writes from the perspective of a middle-aged actress appearing on Late Night with David Letterman. I fell in love with the piece and reading it marked the start of a few-week span where I seemed to hear mention of Wallace everywhere I went. This was around the time I first saw a trailer for The End of the Tour, so I've been anticipating the movie for a couple of months now.
Primarily because of Segel's performance, I cannot recommend this film highly enough. That is not to say it is only good because of Segel, but that his performance is the best element of the film. You watch it and think, oh, he can do *that.* Not just How I Met Your Mother. (Marc Maron interviewed Segel for one of his episodes last week, and I wouldn't have anticipated the thoughtfulness he revealed in that conversation, either.) David Foster Wallace in the film is a lovable dude, someone you'd love to chat with about life, writing and the expectations you set for both. The only thing about the film that kind of disappointed me was I felt the truest or deepest, especially David Foster Wallace-y observations were already revealed in the trailers ("What's so American about what I'm doing"-type stuff). But as I write this, I realize I probably didn't need more of that from the movie, anyway. I needed to see him play with his dogs, or devour junk food en route to the Mall of America, or explain why he decided to go by "David Foster Wallce" instead of just Dave Wallace. And that's what the movie gives you.
I might not recommend this movie to someone who's never heard of David Foster Wallace, but for everyone with even a basic idea of who he was and what he wrote, I'd say go. The End of the Tour brought him to life for me. It made me want to have finished Infinite Jest by the time I see Jason Segel get his Oscar nomination.
So, The End of the Tour was Friday. Saturday was kind of an aimless day and my roommate and I thought we'd try our hand at the lottery for a couple of Broadway shows. We struck out there and with rush tickets, so we wound up seeing Trainwreck, Amy Schumer's new movie. By virtue of appreciating Amy Schumer, knew I would like Trainwreck, but I wasn't sure if I would just like that it existed, or if I'd legitimately like the movie. I'm happy to report my feelings definitely fall in the latter category.
Amy Schumer is a gift to us as a culture. She's hilarious and smart. Seems lovely and genuine. And now she made a terrific comedy that is packed with spot-on cultural references and finds delightful cameo roles for SNL stars. Not sure what's not to love there. I know Trainwreck isn't a perfect movie. It's a little too long and sometimes makes awkward jumps. But that's not the point. The point is that she shouts things like "You're losing us the right to vote!" at basketball dancers, and makes an homage to Manhattan but with a serious bite, and describes her fear of someone seeing a "crime-scene tampon." It all adds up to a comedy unlike one I'd ever seen before, and I loved it. I can't wait to see what Amy Schumer does next.
Bill Hader deserves praise, too, for playing the doctor Amy reluctantly falls in love with. Give this man more leading movie roles! The review on Roger Ebert's site makes a comparison between Hader in this film and a young Jack Lemmon. Thinking back on the film, that comparison is spot-on.
I've been seeing new stuff at a pretty good clip this summer (at least by my standards), and The End of the Tour and Trainwreck are more than worth seeing. Now, if you'll excuse me – I still need to unpack my copy of Infinite Jest.

ATHLETE PROFILE : Thomas Giannettino, Triathlon
Posted by Naomi Hattaway on Friday, 01 May 2015 in Road To The Games
Thomas A. Giannettino is someone who doesn't give up easily. After 21 years in the Air Force and New York Air National Guard, he began a career with the New York State Police in 1999. Working as a uniform trooper at the beginning and later promoted to Investigator in 2007, his most proud moment was assisting in New York City after 9/11. He says "I am so humbled that I had the privilege of being a part of that time in history."
While on duty in November of 2011, Tom was brutally assaulted and suffered a life changing injury to his shoulder, leaving him depressed and not sure where to turn. After numerous surgeries and much time spent rehabilitating his shoulder and arm, his range of motion remained severely impacted and with very little use of his arm. His doctor finally delivered the news that he should consider finding a different career and Tom retired in 2012.
He didn't let that stop him, however, and giving up has never been an option. He started competing in triathlons in 2013 and to date has received top billing in multiple Northeast Region Paratriathlons, a Half Ironman, Sprint Distance events and more. The difficulty and discipline of the triathlon is what drew Tom's attention and because he was required to learn to swim and bike with just one arm, the mental determination was also a way to allow him to heal both physically and mentally.
So far this season, Tom has raced in East London, South Africa and Sunshine Coast Australia. Tom said "I can definitely improve, but I've earned enough points so far to be world ranked and in the hunt to become a Paralympics' hopeful for Rio in 2016." Bravo, Tom! At the writing of this article, Tom is competing for the Paratriathlon Continental Championship in Monterrey, Mexico.
Citing his father as his role model, Tom credits many of his own traits and core values as being linked directly to the valuable lessons he learned from his father, a Marine during WWII. Any free time he has that is not dedicated to training, he spends with his family, and Tom also happens to be a movie buff. If you ask Tom what one thing most people don't know about him, it's that he loves rap music!
Tom isn't just determined to improving his own health and the quality of his family relationships, he also gives back a considerable amount of time by volunteering for Operation Homeland Honor, an organization developed to help permanently injured first responders and veterans become active in sports and competition as a way to heal and become active again in life. Additionally, he participates and volunteers with the Second Dare2Tri Paratriathlon Club. As a participant, he is a member of their elite athlete team but as a volunteer, he gives his time to assist with the kid's camp and other various activities providing guidance and instruction of the sport of triathlon to physically challenged and visually impaired athletes. If that wasn't enough to keep him busy, he also volunteers with Team RWB and Code 9: Officer Needs Assistance, both of which were crucial in Tom's own suffering and healing from Post Traumatic Stress.
During the Fairfax 2015 Games, Tom is looking forward to reconnecting with his Operation Homeland Honor teammates, who are scattered all over the country, but will be reuniting this Summer in Fairfax, Virginia!

'We Are Sad . . . Onlookers Did Nothing To Save Assaulted Officer' - Police Service
ACP David Eklu
Audio Attachment:ACP David Eklu in an interview on Peace FM's 'kokrokoo'
The Ghana Police Service has expressed sadness over the fact that some persons looked on as a driver and his conductor physically assaulted a police officer.
A commercial bus driver and his conductor who have been arrested were captured in a video assaulting a police officer who was trying to query them for parking wrongly.
Speaking to this in an interview on Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo' programme, Director-General of Public Affairs Directorate of the Ghana Police Service, ACP David Eklu expressed surprise that 'people looked on as a man in uniform was being assaulted'.
"I can't understand how . . . we are saddened that a lot of people were standing there doing nothing. I thought the public would have assisted but they didn't and it saddens us," he bemoaned.
According to him, "the people around could have helped in arresting the two (citizen's arrest) since they were doing something wrong; attacking a man in uniform or they could have dialed the police emergency number".
Meanwhile, the driver and his conductor will appear before court today.
According to the policeman who is with the Odorkor police station, he was performing his duties when he was attacked by the civilians for confronting them when they violated the road regulation act.
The Policeman revealed that he confronted the driver after he parked in the middle of the road to pick passengers which resulted in massive traffic.
He also stated that he went to the scene to solve the situation but met an accident between a motorbike and a private car and attempting to remedy the situation he was almost run over by the driver who parked in the middle of the road.
According to the policeman, he chased the driver on a motorbike which he managed to cross him and queried why he was driving recklessly.
This resulted in a heated verbal argument which the drivers and their mates decided to pounce on the policeman and ended up beating him mercilessly.

Listen to the new Kutless song.
Click on the link above to download "The Feeling" the newest song of Kutless.
You have to enter your e-mail address and then you get this song by e-mail.
It sounds good and heavy.
Ahh... music to my ears.
I am loving this song and looking forward to a new Kutless album.
It's short to be radio friendly. Also, when there are no guitar solos, the songs do tend to be shorter.
The new song kicks! I like it.
Since all modern rock sounds exactly the same, it keeps you from getting too bored during just one song.
It does sound promising though, maybe I will enjoy this better than their last effort.
That's what I have thought too that most modern rock has the same sound.
Bands like Letter 7 or Thieves & Liars have a different sound.
It can be an interesting discussion if we all agree or not agree with the fact the modern music has the same sound.

...turning off System restore, rebooting into safe mode, then running your antivirus software?
You might also think about uninstalling some other software for the moment.
have you tried running Spybot Search and Destroy and LavaSoft Adaware? If it is spyware your anti virus software will not necessarily pick it up.
If you arent behind a proxy server or overly painful firewall let me recommend hitman pro. it downloads popular antispyware programs, updates and scans. I used it very often and it worked wonders on machines that i felt couldnt be fixed without a restore.
