Year 2015 was probably one of the heaviest years for me about my work-travel. I did some 100+ Events that year across India & Asia. One September evening, when I was totally zonked & bored with daily flights I decided to have some fun. I held a contest on my Social Media: Motivate the Motivational Speaker. My believers had to try and motivate me. Some people did surprise me with their originality & creativity in their point of views. Few of them became friends & they manage to inspire me even today during conversations. My work as a Motivational Speaker for Corporate Events & Youth in the last 18+ yrs has had the influence of some of the most brilliant, top Motivational Speakers in the world. Their content, their stories, and their style of communication – it all just makes me a fanboy!
Before you begin reading this, I have a confession to make. I may have indulged in some overthinking before writing this article. I always do, for all my blog posts. And then I fight it. So that's what this blogpost is about: How to Stop Overthinking & finding ways that actually work. Because let's face it – sending the brain on a hyperactive overdrive in the wrong direction never helped anyone.

#SaveSheikhJarrah
A photo-essay by Gili Getz
On Friday, July 9, as part of my visit to Israel to see family and friends this past summer, I joined the weekly protest rally in Sheikh Jarrah against the Settler-led effort to remove Palestinian families from their homes in that East Jerusalem neighborhood. This weekly protest began in 2009, following another eviction of Palestinian families that year, and I was glad to be present at it. Sheikh Jarrah has become the ground zero of Palestinian resistance to dispossession anywhere, and it is the origin point for joint Palestinian-Israeli action against the occupation.

We joined the residents of Sheikh Jarrah, who were led by activist and resident, Saleh Diab. Participants at the protest also included MK Mossi Raz (Meretz) as well as Mohammed Abu Hummus, the legendary activist from Issawiya, also part of East Jerusalem, whom I'd met when he led our Center for Jewish Nonviolence group through his neighborhood. It was also special to see Misha Shulman, rabbi of the New Shul, visiting from New York City, along with his dad, David Shulman, who's active in Ta'ayush, a grassroots movement of Arabs and Jews working for equality, justice, and peace.

We were Palestinians and Israeli Jews, singing together in both Hebrew and Arabic against the occupation and we marched to where police regularly erected their barricades, designed to prevent the activists from entering the neighborhood and meeting with the families facing eviction to express our solidarity. Folks from a wide range of groups were there, including Standing Together, Peace Now, Combatants for Peace, All That's Left, Free Jerusalem, to name a few, carrying signs alongside the neighborhood's residents. Folks with different views, young and old, from different backgrounds.

At one point during the rally, Abu Hummus waved a small Palestinian flag. This is a legal act – a fact made clear recently by Israel's Public Security Minister and courts. But that didn't stop the police and, as is often the case, they jumped all over him. Abu Hummus raised it higher and then passed it on to another protester. It was extraordinary to see how much violence the police were ready to use to confiscate that one small flag. Finally, they managed to seize it by force, but then someone else took out another small Palestinian flag, and then another one and another one. Eventually the police gave up and walked away. The Palestinian flag threatens no one except the idea that Palestinians can and should be erased.

The Settler campaign to evict the Palestinian families is based on discrimination, written into Israeli law. Under that law, Jews – only Jews – are allowed to sue for properties held anywhere in Jerusalem before the 1948 war. But Palestinians weren't given an equal right, or any right, to do so. That's injustice.

The whole world is watching. The Jordanian Foreign Minister told Israel's Foreign Minister that, "If the Palestinians are evicted from Sheikh Jarrah, it would be a war crime." Secretary of State Blinken said the Biden administration is deeply concerned about the possible eviction of Palestinian families from their homes in Sheikh Jarrah. Lawmakers from around the world are warning against it. Because it is so deeply unjust.

The Sheikh Jarrah evictions go to the very heart of the conflict. They are not a "real estate dispute," but a feature of an ongoing Nakba, of occupation and apartheid. They are an act of state violence. They will make no one free, and no one safer.
The Palestinian taxi driver who took me to the protest said he doesn't like to talk politics, but then expressed deep concerns over the consequences of these evictions if they go through. The ruling of Israel's High Court of Justice in this case is expected soon.

October 2021 update: The exact same thing that's happening in Sheikh Jarrah is happening in other areas of East Jerusalem, too. In fact, Israel's High Court is about to rule in another eviction case that could end in the expulsion of hundreds of Palestinians from their homes in a different East Jerusalem neighborhood – Silwan. But no matter where it's happening, the Settlers' strategy is the same: With the support of the state, taking over areas of East Jerusalem by pushing Palestinians out and bringing Jewish Israeli settlers to replace them.

Titan Medical Announces Successful Completion of Survival Phase of GLP Chronic Procedures with its Single-Port Robotic Surgical System
TORONTO (August 6, 2019) – Titan Medical Inc. ("Titan" or the "Company") (TSX: TMD) (Nasdaq: TMDI), a medical device company focused on the design, development and commercialization of a robotic surgical system for application in minimally invasive surgery ("MIS"), announces the successful completion of the chronic procedures performed under Good Laboratory Practice ("GLP") principles using its single-port robotic surgery system, noting that all animals survived through the follow-up period. Ricardo Estape, M.D., a robotic gynecologic oncology surgeon specializing in robotic single incision surgeries from South Miami Gynecology Oncology Group, led the completion of the GLP studies.
The Company now intends to complete the full GLP studies report and required Summative Human Factors studies, followed by the full Human Factors Evaluation ("HFE") report to facilitate filing of the Investigational Device Exemption ("IDE") submission by the end of September.
"We are pleased to have successfully completed the survival phase of the chronic studies performed under the expert guidance of Dr. Estape for our IDE application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA")," said David McNally, Titan's chief executive officer. "All of the chronic study animals survived the required time following benign hysterectomy procedures using our single-port robotic surgery system. The demonstration of multi-week survival is a significant achievement for Titan. We are encouraged by the results and our team is now focused on completing the remaining milestones to support a 510(k) filing by year-end 2019."
Dr. Estape said, "It was a privilege to lead these important studies with Titan's single-port robotic surgery system and I am pleased that the post-surgery period has elapsed without complications. The survival of the chronic animals, along with the successful completion of other GLP acute animal and cadaver studies, demonstrates that I was able to complete the essential surgical tasks to achieve the desired results using the system. I remain very excited about the potential of Titan's single-port robotic surgical system. Once cleared for clinical use, it may deliver single-incision surgery performance that could result in reduced trauma and faster healing for my patients."

Man Mauled By Bear To Receive Workers' Compensation Benefits Even Though He Used Marijuana
Home » Workers Compensation » Man Mauled By Bear To Receive Workers' Compensation Benefits Even Though He Used Marijuana
Some workers' compensation cases can be difficult to determine whether or not there are outside factors that contributed to the accident. For example, this unusual workers' compensation case invovled the use of drugs by the employee:
Brock Hopkins of Montana was mauled by a bear on November 2, 2007 while working at Great Bear Adventures near West Glacier, Montana. That morning, when Hopkins stepped into the bears' pen with food, one of the grizzly bears attacked him. Hopkins tried to flee and managed to escape by crawling under an electrified fence. The worker suffered severe injuries to his leg and was hospitalized.
The park's owner, Russell Kilapatrick, contended that Hopkins's usage of marijuana that morning caused the animal to attack.
For a free legal consultation, call 1-844-736-8342
Hopkins's openly admitted to using marijuana that morning before work, but the court decided that this usage was not the ultimate cause of the bear attack. The judge wrote somewhat comically, "I cannot conclude based on the evidence before me that the major contributing cause of the grizzly bear attack was anything other than the grizzly. It is not as if this attack occurred when Hopkins inexplicably wandered into the grizzly pen while searching for the nearest White Castle. Hopkins was attacked while performing a job Kilpatrick paid him to do – feed grizzly bears."
Like Montana, South Carolina employers can use intoxication, either by alcohol or controlled substances, as a defense to a workers' compensation claim. The South Carolina court system has further ruled that the intoxication must be the proximate cause of the worker's injuries. In this instance, proximate cause means that "but for" the worker's intoxication, the injuries would not have occurred. If the bear attack had taken place in South Carolina, a judge would most likely have ruled in favor of the injured, Hopkins.

The Android Browser Super-Guide
Matt Demers July 13, 2010 79
When you buy a smartphone, one of the features that's obviously being considered is its browser. The ability to browse the Internet is integral to the smartphone experience; without it, you lose a lot of the functionality that makes it so damned useful. API Internet calls to fuel our apps are one thing, but the inability to bring up any web page we want, whenever we want would strip smartphones of a lot of their core usability.
So naturally, the browser that one uses on their phone is pretty important. Right now, there are numerous options for the discerning Android users to take into account. The ones that I have spent time with (and have detailed in this post) are all viable choices, but have little quirks that may or may not influence your decision.
I originally set out to do this post at a reader's suggestion, in order to determine which browser was "best". However, I came to realize that not every browser suits every user's needs. I can't really make a clear decision if the default browser is the one that suits me, can I? Hopefully you'll find something here that suits your needs, and download accordingly. For your convenience, I've created a feature table for quick reference: it's embedded at the bottom of the post, if you don't feel like viewing it via link.
To review these browsers, I used a Motorola Milestone that is on Canada's Telus network. I felt the need to omit speed comparisons, as networks differ from region to region, and under wifi connection, I found they all performed relatively the same.
Testing was accomplished by a general "to do" list, which included:
creating and managing bookmarks
creating, switching and deleting tabs
sharing with the web/apps
viewing Droid-Life.com via the browser
app-specific features, like viewing a plug-in video with Skyfire or testing gesture support
So, without further ado, I present to you the Droid-Life.com Android Browser Super-guide.
The Default
So, here's the benchmark. The default Android browser has many of the tools most people need in their day-to-day operation on the Internet. It draws from your phone's global bookmark pool, handles tabs (if not a little clumsily), has the ability to share pages on a variety of different app platforms and generally works quite well. It lacks a lot of the features some browsers have, like themes and add-ons, but really, for the average user, it doesn't need that. For some people, they're content to just browse the web, period.
Default-y has the advantage of being first party, and designed by Google: what it does is do all these basic features extremely well. Honestly, the only notch I mark in the "con" column about the default browser is its unwieldy tab interface. It just takes too many clicks to change, delete or make a new tab: while I don't use it that often, its awkwardness keeps me from trying to use it more.
Download (or keep?) the default browser if you: don't care about extra features, and like the way Google designs things.
Skyfire
There was much fanfare upon Skyfire's release, as it was the only browser to offer "fake" Flash; under this browser, one would not require Android 2.2 or Flash 10.1 in order to view enabled objects on web pages. I decided to test this out by going to Gametrailers.com and viewing a video for the upcoming Nintendo DS title, Dragon Quest IX. While a screenshot of the video itself couldn't be taken, I assure you it did work; after the browser identified a Flash (or Silverlight!)-enabled video, it could load and play it. Sadly, this does not include Flash-enabled games, but really, it's better than nothing.
Otherwise, the feature list is quite unremarkable: it does tabs and bookmarks and all the other things we'd expect from browsers. These functions are enabled through push buttons at the top of the bar, and perform quite nicely. They'd better: I'd take core functionality over Flash wizardry any day.
Download Skyfire if: you watch a lot of plug-in-based video, and have a generous data plan.
xScope
xScope was the only browser I reviewed that had the option of a paid version. Naturally, being the cheapskate I am, I optioned to take the lite version for a try; I feel that if you're going to charge for a browser while all your competition's are free, that free version must be able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder. What struck me about xScope (Lite) was the precense of its UI. Unlike its bretheren who are all too happy to get out of your way, xScope seems to like sticking around. While this makes the tab navigation extremely easy, it runs into the problem of trying to squish in too many features at once.
Yes, I will admit that having to navigate a series of menus to organize tabs can be a bit annoying, it keeps me from having to wonder how I would actually close them; with title bar text and a nice little percentage-based loading indicator (instead of a bar), there isn't much room for a touch-sensitive "X" to close it. This can be achieved by a long-press, but it's not exactly apparent. What would make it better would be a (hideable) "Are you sure?" pop-up. That way, people wouldn't be closing things by accident.
Inexplicably, besides a download manager it also has a task killer and file browser built right in: I didn't like this, as I have apps that do these things much better installed on my phone already. While I'm usually a fan of consolidation, I don't like when a company feels the need to shoehorn in other features needlessly.
[update]: I've been since notified that it only requires a single press of the tab to close it while you're viewing it. I don't mean to doubt the devs, but I can't get this to work at all. It seems to require a long press for me.
[update2]: I neglected to mention a big selling point of xScope: its one-finger zooming. By double-tapping on any point on the screen then dragging your finger left or right, you can zoom in or out accordingly. This is a great feature (when I can get the feature to trigger, which is rarely) and is actually worthy of some praise: it adds a little bit of functionality to portrait browsing.
However, I have a problem with the way it's implemented: the tutorial to use this and other features is a small link at the bottom of the settings page; unformatted and lonely, I would have passed over a feature that does not make itself apparent otherwise. The least the developers could do would be to give it own graphical button.
Download xScope if: you don't have ASTRO file viewer or a task killer on your system, and do a lot of one-handed browsing.
Checking out Steel, I found myself questioning my phone's graphical capabilities; it seemed like there was fine coat of Vaseline covering my screen. There's a certain something about Steel's UI that just doesn't feel right: there's a lack of sharp edges, almost like it doesn't want you to hurt yourself.
Of the browsers I tried, Steel was the most like Android's default in that it is very bare bones. You'll get bookmarks (though curiously, not global bookmarks) and a download manager, along with a better tabbing system than the default; it just seems to run smoother, and you'll find that it takes less clicks to get you where you want to go. On a whole, however, Steel gives me the impression that there's a lack of ambition on the part of the developers. It's almost like they got their browser to a working state, said "good enough", then left it. Not the best browser to download if you're looking for frills.
Download Steel if: you don't care about graphics and are looking for something different from the default Android browser.
Dolphin Browser HD
When Dolphin first came on the scene, its big selling point was the inclusion of a Youtube downloader; with it, people could rip videos to their phone for later viewing, saving their bandwidth and time. However, Google put the kibosh on this, but a powerful browser remained. Seen as one of the "big boys" of third-party browsers, Dolphin brings some unique features to the table with add-ons, themes and a kick ass "most visited" panel (as seen above). The tab interface is slick, except for an all-too-small "X" button to close tabs. I find my fingers have a hard time hitting it, and will either change tabs or create a new one by accident.
It also seems to have a problem of scrolling midway down the viewable page when switching tabs: because the tab itself (and its closing "X") is located at the top of the page (and isn't a wrapper), one has to scroll all the way to the top every time this happens. It's frustrating, but you can get used to it.
Dolphin also has gesture support enabled, but I've never been a big fan of it; I find that it's not very forgiving when it comes to wrong swipes, which results in some mild frustration. Some default gestures require a pooling of ink, so to speak, as well: this leads to frustration when I didn't roll my finger just quite enough to smudge enough area. They're programmable, but honestly, I have a keyboard on my phone; if I'm going to sit at a phone browser for an extended amount of time, I'll use that, instead.
Dolphin's add-on support can also let you do things like tweet from inside your browser, but really, I have better apps for that outside of my phone.
Download Dolphin Browser HD if: you want a browser with all the fixings.
I'm not a big fan of Opera's offering into mobile browsing; it's too much eye candy and not enough functionality. It brings a lot of the features of Opera (like the Speed Dial) to the mobile platform, but it all seems very… messy. Look at the Facebook page above: some things don't line up with each other. The issue's the same on other high-traffic web pages, like Youtube, which puts me off entirely. A browser can have all the extra bells and whistles in the world, but if it doesn't do the basics right, it doesn't deserve my phone's memory. This is kind of disappointing, considering Opera is a big name in desktop browsing; you'd figure they'd have more resources devoted to a proper Android offering.
Maybe I'm being a little hard on it: it is in beta. However, Opera will need to put a lot more work into the client before I'll consider giving it another chance.
Opera handles tabs and downloads, but remains unable to import from my phone's global bookmarks: like with Steel, this is quite an annoyance, especially if I'm looking for easy data migration. It supports RSS feeds in its bookmarks manager, though, which is a plus.
Download Opera Mini 5 if: you want to try a polished product, and don't have an RSS client.
Mozilla Fennec
While initially I felt like Fennec deserved a spot in this mega-guide (and the feature table), after installation and quick prodding, I went back on this. Fennec is a pre-alpha product, which means it's very unpolished. While nightly builds are being updated to the product's page, it seems like Fennec needs a lot more work before it becomes fully functional. Therefore, it doesn't really deserve any bashing hammers of criticism I'd like to lay down on it.
But from what I can see, the future looks bright: add-ons, themes, downloads, tabs and RSS will all be a part of this browser. However, curious users will have to put up with choppiness all around as well as a 30MB file size (!) on their phone/SD card if they'd like to get their feet wet.
Download Fennec if: you're looking to mess around and have another browser installed, just in case.
Wrap-Up and Features Table
So, there you have it, one super-guide for all your Android browsing needs. As promised, here's a spreadsheet documenting the major features of the browsers I mentioned for quick reference. Hope you enjoyed this guide: if you have any other suggestions for super-guides in the future, feel free to comment on this page, send us a tip, or e-mail me at matt [at] mattdemers.com

(Maymester & July) This course focuses on archaeological field and laboratory methods through readings, lectures, and mainly hands-on experiences (dig simulator) and the data these practices generate. The course will cover the essential field methods employed in archaeological survey (ground, aerial, geophysical), excavation, restoration/conservation. This will include the fundamentals of documentation including note taking, drawing, photography, and map-making. The course will also introduce how archaeologists organize and analyze the large quantities and wide range of data recovered in these processes with particular attention to the use of computer databases, especially Geographic Information Systems (GIS). It will provide a general overview of different types of laboratory analysis including lithics, ceramics, metals, plant and animal remains, and discuss the available dating methods. Students will have the opportunity to practice many of the field and lab methods in the Simulated Excavation Field (SEF), and, when available, archaeological sites. Through these experiences and interactions with a range of archaeological datasets, students will learn how the archaeological record is formed and what its patterns can teach us about ancient human livelihoods. Finally, students will learn to synthesize and present the results of field and laboratory research in reports, a critical genre of writing in the discipline.
The A.TR.E.U.S. field program (Archaeological Training in Excavation and Underground Survey) and the dig simulator at Mycenae of unparalleled complexity and unprecedented size (300 m2 or 3,000 sq. feet, 1-1.5 m deep), facilitate intensive, interdisciplinary 'hands-on' education and practical field training for undergraduate and graduate students in real conditions in the controlled environment of a simulated excavation field. The dig simulator features reconstructed architectural ruins and diagnostic archaeological contexts (hearths, kiln, well, houses, shrine, cist and pit graves, a rock-cut chamber tomb, part of a collapsed fortification wall), plotted portable finds and spatial distribution of physical remains, including artifacts (reproduced pieces of pottery, figurines, jewelry, tools and weapons) and ecofacts (casts of human skeletons, animal bones and teeth, carbonized wood, organic remains and other bioarchaeological material), and reproduced stratigraphy filled with different types of sediment (occupation layers, destruction layers, floor levels, burnt deposits). The students are trained in aerial reconnaissance (aerial photography with use of octocopter drone); archaeological survey methods (with use of compass, Total Station, and Differential GPS); geophysical survey techniques (GPR, gradiometer, ERT); excavation methods and techniques (digging, recording, measuring -triangulation/depth - and georeferenced plotting with use of Total Station, labeling, drawing plans/sections, filling out forms and writing field notes, photography, sifting, floatation with use of Flote-tech); synthesis and interpretation of stratigraphic sequence, spatial distribution of finds, spatial function of rooms/areas, identification of archaeological contexts, patterns of uniformity and variation; study of portable finds (construction, typology, function, dating) with brief introduction to the study of ceramics, lithics, metal artifacts, bioarchaeological material, and osteoarchaeology (human/faunal); architectural study and 3-D digital reconstruction of the ruins with use of a site scanner; application of digital technology in archaeology, creating, maintaining, and using a G.I.S. database; restoration of building ruins, conservation of portable finds, analysis of storage procedures; final excavation report; dig simulator activities will be recorded by fixed web-cameras for training purposes, in-depth analysis and evaluation in class.


Studies have found that Apple Cider Vinegar may assist a person to lose weight. Most of the studies have been conducted on animals but the results are promising.
The best type of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) is made from organic apples and is unfiltered, unrefined and contains "the mother". The mother appears in the ACV as a cloudy weblike substance and it contains beneficial probiotics and enzymes. The mother is thought to be the substance that gives ACV it's health benefits, and this is why it is important to get ACV that contains "the mother". You can normally tell if ACV contains "the mother" by it's cloudy appearance, but manufacturers will also make it clear that their ACV contains "the mother" on the product label, because it is a positive attribute that increases sales to people who are health conscious.
Apple Cider Vinegar contains acetic acid. It is believed that small amounts of acetic acid can help to activate the metabolism and assist the body to use fat as an energy source.
Apple Cider vinegar seems to help a person feel less hungry and when taken before a meal, a person may eat less and feel more satisfied after the meal. Some studies suggest that the ACV causes feelings of nausea and this is why it works as an appetite suppressant. I have been taking ACV for a while and I have never experienced nausea after taking it, so the reaction to ACV is probably unique to each individual.
A suggested amount is 1-2 tablespoons of ACV in 8 ounces of water 2-3 times a day before meals.
Apple Cider Vinegar can be mixed with cold water, or warm water with honey to sweeten it. You can also use ACV as a dressing on salad, either straight or mixed with olive oil. There are many drink recipes out there that contain ACV, but be careful not to mix it with ingredients that are counterproductive to weight loss.
Apple Cider Vinegar is believed to have many health benefits and weight loss is just one of them. I think that at a minimum, it could be a very good supplement to a diet plan. With all of the other benefits that ACV gives us, I think that it is worth a try.
Apple Cider Vinegar does not look like a quick fix for weight loss, but can be seen as more of a supplement to a diet plan. My advice is to not take too much ACV, moderation in all things is good and too much of a good thing usually leads to counterproductive results.

Even churches, convents, mosques, temples and synagogues are subject to condemnation proceedings. If the government determines it needs to acquire a property for the greater good of the community, religion is not a mitigating factor to save a parcel of land. Ackerman Ackerman and Dynkowski has consistently demonstrated our firm has the talent to obtain fair financial settlements when there is a property taking of a religious house of worship.
Goodwill Community Chapel: This church was a respected community pillar and used by the local Boys Club. The City of Detroit condemned the property, similar to dozens of parcels in the neighborhood, in order to build the Pole Town GM Assembly Plant in the 1980s which manufactured Cadillacs and later Buicks. The Pole Town project was touted by the City as a necessary economic development catalyst for urban Detroit. It was a highly controversial project.
The Chapel was a 20,000 square-foot facility spanning three floors. The City originally offered $43,000.00 for the property. Our firm was hired by the Chapel and took the case to court. After two trials and three appeals the case the case was finally resolved with the payment of $440,000.00 to the property owner.
First Latin American Baptist Church: This urban church was a fixture for decades on Ford Street in downtown Detroit. Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) condemned the property as part of the Detroit International River Crossing Project, subsequently called the Gordie Howe Bridge. The church was offered $420,000.00 for its property after MDOT's attorney argued the builders not in demand and of little public use. Following a year of discovery, MDOT settled the case for a reasonable fair market value of $1 Million dollars.

KEEPING OUR KIDS AND RIVERS HEALTHY!
Texas River School uses our Rivers as classrooms to teach and reinforce traditional academic subjects; to introduce important personal growth initiatives like leadership, self discipline and civic responsibility and to foster a life long connection to and affection for Texas waterways.
The Texas River School has a long history and solid reputation in working to "Keep our kids and rivers healthy." The River School was formed with the intention of combining outdoor education, canoeing skills, and swimming with healthy nutritional reinforcement. So many of our students do not have access to any of the above and after working with over 5,000 area youths, we know that our program has had a positive impact.


They have united every single fame-challenged celebrity whoever lived, and who wasn't busy at the autograph convention I recently went to in Parsippany, and shot them synching to "Let It Be" as a promo for some TV show or the other.
Stick with this amazing clip and you'll see faded singers, ex-talk-show hosts, damaged athletes, and movieland icons like Kathleen Turner and Kelly McGillis.
Some of these notables are still hot (Glenn Close) and most of them are still alive (except for Leslie Nielsen).
And there are even rockers like Huey Lewis, TV stars like Corbin Bernsen and the black guy from Miami Vice, and even Pamela Anderson and Jason Alexander, for Chrissake!
It's amazing what a Norwegian buck can do!
The guy from Milli Vanilli!

Boy, what can I say but 2009 was truly a distinguished year, IMHO, for movies. At least the movies that are up for Best Picture at the Academy Awards. The problem is, while this select few represent a really interesting spectrum of subjects/topics, there is really a dearth of quality movies made these days.
In fact, there is a dearth of films made these days, period.
Anyway, the Bug and I toddled on over to the Cinema Palme d'Or yesterday to catch The Last Station which is one of the last Best Picture candidates that we hadn't seen. Neither of us had a clue about what the movie was about. We knew only this: it was nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Best Actress and its cast included the goddess Helen Mirren and that hottie James McAvoy.
I seldom read film reviews because I couldn't care less what a critic thinks of a movie. If I wish to see a movie, then I'll see the movie, critically drubbed or not. I don't watch tv. So I learn about new films and their subject matter by trailers or online or occasionally the Sunday newspaper.
But I somehow knew nothing about The Last Station (actually the same was true for An Education....I only knew vaguely that it took place in the 60s). How fun is that? What a wonderful surprise we had.
The Last Station is about the final months in the life of Leo Tolstoy, in early 1900's. Christopher Plummer, nominee for Best Supporting Actor, portrays the master writer and his wife, Countess Sofya Tolstoy, is played in usually brilliant fashion by La Mirren (who is nominated for Best Actress).
And then there is that remarkably fetching and talented James McAvoy. What a wonderful string of films he has made (my favorite film last year, Atonement, before that, The Last King of Scotland. Oh, and one of my other favorite movies, Becoming Jane). He brings an earnestness to the character of Valentin Bulgakov, who is Tolstoy's secretary (everytime he sneezes my heart breaks). This is an interesting character and I can't think of any other actor who could have brought a better interpretation than McAvoy. Valentin is an idealistic Tolstoyan, a practicing virginal celibate, who passionately believes in the tenets of the Tolstoyan Movement: brotherly love and world peace through pacifism, and a denouncement of material wealth and physical love.
Paul Giamatti is brilliant as the Movement's villainous leader, Vladimir Chertkov.
But this move is absolutely astonishing because of the dueling tour de force performances of Plummer and La Mirren.
I have to say that Mirren, in my opinion, is the only other Best Actress nominee, besides Sandra Bullock, who should win the award based upon performance. I haven't seen Precious yet, will see it this afternoon. So I may have to revise my opinion. But I still think Bullock will win. Mirren already has a Best Actress and I think Bullock will win because this is her one true shot at the award and she also set such a huge example for female stars with The Blind Side, which is the highest grossing film starring a major female actress, currently at $250million (domestic).
I haven't seen Jeff Bridges performance yet. He's my sentimental favorite. But Plummer should win Supporting actor........talk about a career! Father Von Trapp needs and Academy Award.
GO see The Last Station. A beautiful, magnificent film.
One observation for those more well-versed on Tolstoy or Russian History. After seeing this movie, I'm wondering if the Tolstoyan Movement didn't pave the way for the Russian Revolution? Anyone have anything to add. It seemed that, as depicted in The Last Station, that the Movement was anti-religion, anti-Tzar. Given that Tolstoy was so beloved by the people, he was even considered Saint-like, that kind of power and influence would have been the only thing capable of undermining the monarchy and the Russian orthodox church.
Tell me if I'm right/wrong.......Interesting thought though.


The Highway Trust Fund's chronic budget shortfall is a serious problem, author says.
Transportation is crucial to keeping the U.S. economy humming. Strategic investments in smart transportation projects with defined outcomes can help ensure our future prosperity. There must be adequate support, both for the maintenance of existing systems and for the expansion and interconnection of new systems. That's not happening now.
Much about our transportation debate is familiar — funding challenges and policy disagreements are always part of the reauthorization process. But these challenges are exacerbated now by a chronic shortfall in revenue for the Highway Trust Fund, the fiscal austerity that is driving our political discourse and a lack of public trust in the federal transportation program.
The tradition of broad bipartisan support for investments in surface transportation has largely broken down. We must get that back.
Research and experience show, however, that this erosion of transportation support does not necessarily extend to the public. Most citizens still voice support for public spending on transportation when they realize it can result in positive local outcomes. The public is also receptive to the message that smart transportation investments make a positive long-term contribution to economic growth, U.S. competitiveness and job creation.
Despite broad support in principle, however, active public engagement on these issues has been elusive. The public must convince our leaders that transportation investment and reform is crucial. While many Americans experience our inefficient transport systems in their daily lives, other national effects — including lost productivity on the broader economy or high transportation costs on the price of goods — are less obvious.
1. A positive, forward-looking tone that frames the transportation debate around issues of economic growth, jobs and U.S. competitiveness, combined with quality of life.


Considering the length of the Oklahoma Boys State Program and the distance from home for most Delegates, everyone in attendance should apply significant consideration into packing for the week-long camp. The Boys State Administration has assembled this checklist of essential items to bring to Boys State. We strongly suggest you utilize this document, as your parents will not appreciate driving to NEO mid-week to bring something you forgot.
Many retail outlets are open on Saturday in Miami should you need to pick up anything before you check in to camp. Please have all items/supplies with you when you arrive. Delegates will be very busy after arrival and may not have time to meet with parents to pick up additional items after check in.
Although dress clothes are not required at anytime, Boys Staters are expected to present a neat, uniform appearance. With the exception of recreation time, delegates will wear their Boys State T-shirt (2 are issued at no charge), pants (jeans or slacks), closed toe shoes (no sandals), and may choose to wear an official Boys State baseball cap, which can be purchased in the store or the Sons of the American Legion cap.
We encourage JROTC, Sea Cadet, and/or Civil Air Patrol Cadets to bring their service dress uniforms to Boys State. There will be opportunities during the week to wear them which will enhance your Boys State experience and that of your fellow delegates, bring focus to your organizations, and more thoroughly honor our Veterans and our Nation. We hope you will proudly be part of these special occasions in uniform.
During recreation time or while on the dorm floor, delegates may wear any hat, shirt, shorts or pants they choose. In addition, due to the amount of walking at Boys State, delegates should wear socks with shoes to help prevent blisters from developing.
Bedding (twin-size sheets, blanket, pillow, sleeping bag, etc.) The dorms are very well-air conditioned and can get cold!
Firearms, fireworks, drugs (including tobacco), alcohol. None of these are permitted at Boys State and will result in immediate dismissal of the delegate.
Any item of great value. Although Boys State delegates are the finest young men in the state, prudence nevertheless dictates that one take care of his personal belongings and cash.

1. Bill Kenwright's speech and a pause for thought for twelve officers from South Yorkshire Policea
In April 2013, approximately 500 Serving Police Officers from South Yorkshire Police were sent on batch an email from Tony Farrell (former Principal Intelligence Analyst) with an open invitation for all recipients to open the hyperlink and listen and watch part of Bill Kenwright's fine speech at the 24th Hillsborough Memorial Service held at Anfield and then reflect and pause for thought. Senior Command Team members were included in the sample. It was pointed out in a covering letter written by Tony Farrell that the video required less than seven minutes of an officers time to watch. It is known that the emails successfully went to their intended recipients. The response generated was interesting. Out of 500 officers, only twelve viewings were generated within the first two weeks. Sadly, one officer emailed Tony Farrell back requesting to be taken off the email list. Looking optimistically on this, may be there are twelve good serving officers who actually care deeply enough about the role South Yorkshire Police have played in the cover-up of the Hillsborough disaster to be bothered to reflect for seven minutes on such matters.

And he spoke a parable unto them [to this end], that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.
And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith. And shall not God avenge his own Elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of Man cometh, shall he find Faith on the earth?

In Throwback, Jack Remick writes about relationships, about pain and suffering, about illness and death, loneliness, emptiness, suicide, the last gasps of a life from one story to the next, transversing all his characters. It's interesting that Remick's male protagonist in each is the one constant compassionate caregiver, the listener, the helper, but always, the one left behind, sad and bereft at his loss. It's like there is a deep-rooted need to be the savior. And when death comes to one character, his protagonist transudes from one story, one loss, to another, as if passing through the pores of life, changing names, but remaining standing within his own loss.
I relate to Jack Remick's writing because he doesn't try to hide pain and suffering. He's not scribbling down the words singing an upbeat life is wonderful tune. He's telling it like it is. The undercurrent of pain bubbles up to the surface in each story and in each of our life stories. He forces us to face it head on.
