NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - After a few years of staying close to home, Americans are ready to start traveling again and will be spending more and staying away longer.
But savvy, cost-conscious travelers will also be looking for value and are willing to haggle for the best deals, according to a survey released Friday.
In a sign that the travel industry is starting to pick up, 67 percent of the 1,000 Americans questioned in the AOL online survey said they planned to spend more than $1,000 on a holiday, five percent more than in 2009.
Nearly 55 percent hope to take more than one vacation, an increase of four percent from a year ago. Fewer people are also planning shorter trips.
But almost half of American questioned in the poll said they plan to cash in their air miles this year, compared to 31 percent in 2009.
More people also suggested they would be flexible with their departure and return dates and more were willing to fly during non-peak times and to take connecting flights to save money.
"I was surprised how far consumers are going to make sure they get the most value for their dollar," Caulfield said.
As more Americans get back on the road, rail and in the sky, they will also be asking for discounts and extras to clinch their travel plans.
Three-quarters admitted that a free breakfast could entice them to select one hotel over another and an equal number planned to ask their travel agent about discounts.
Sixty-seven percent said fees for baggage and food could influence their decision about which airline to fly.
Security is also a concern. More than half thought racial, ethnic and/or demographic profiling should be used to identify passengers for additional screening.
Only 32 percent said they feel safer flying this year than last year, and more than 60 percent think the airlines and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), the agency responsible for travel security, could do more to make travelers feel safe.
Despite concerns about privacy, less than a quarter of Americans said they were concerned about body scanners invading their privacy.
"The security tops the privacy concerns," said Caulfield.

Barbara Furnas Nelson - Memoriam
by Marie Caillet
Barbara F. Nelson died on Dec. 13,2010 in Collinsville, Ala. Mrs. Nelson was active in the Society for Louisiana Irises since its founding. She was the widow of a leading scientist who was also a pioneer in working with Louisiana irises. The daughter of Leah and James Furnas, Barbara was born Sept. 21, 1913 in Shawnee, OK.

She was married to Dr. Ira S. Nelson and was the mother of four children, six grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. A longtime resident of Lafayette, La., she was a member of the First Presbyterian Church, active in Girl Scouts, and was retired from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette College of Agriculture, Horticulture Department as librarian and an instructor.

Barbara wrote extensively about Louisiana irises. She was a contributing author to the first edition of The Louisiana Iris, The History and Culture of Five Native American Species and their Hybrids. She also helped with the review and proofreading of manuscripts. At least three Louisiana irises are named after her: 'Barbara Nelson' (Nelson, 1951), 'Mrs. Ira Nelson' (Amy 1969), and 'Professor Barbara' (Mertzweiller, 1990).

Week 12, Day 4 in the NASB
Podcast: Play in new window (Duration: 19:14 — 0.65MB)
The reading for today is Deuteronomy 19-22; Luke 10.
Scripture quotations taken from the NASB © The Lockman Foundation.
"When the Lord your God cuts off the nations, whose land the Lord your God gives you, and you dispossess them and settle in their cities and in their houses, you shall set aside three cities for yourself in the midst of your land, which the Lord your God gives you to possess. You shall prepare the roads for yourself, and divide into three parts the territory of your land which the Lord your God will give you as a possession, so that any manslayer may flee there.
"Now this is the case of the manslayer who may flee there and live: when he kills his friend unintentionally, not hating him previously— as when a man goes into the forest with his friend to cut wood, and his hand swings the axe to cut down the tree, and the iron head slips off the handle and strikes his friend so that he dies—he may flee to one of these cities and live; otherwise the avenger of blood might pursue the manslayer in the heat of his anger, and overtake him, because the way is long, and take his life, though he was not deserving of death, since he had not hated him previously. Therefore, I command you, saying, 'You shall set aside three cities for yourself.'
"If the Lord your God enlarges your territory, just as He has sworn to your fathers, and gives you all the land which He promised to give your fathers— if you carefully observe all this commandment which I command you today, to love the Lord your God, and to walk in His ways always—then you shall add three more cities for yourself, besides these three. So innocent blood will not be shed in the midst of your land which the Lord your God gives you as an inheritance, and bloodguiltiness be on you.
"But if there is a man who hates his neighbor and lies in wait for him and rises up against him and strikes him so that he dies, and he flees to one of these cities, then the elders of his city shall send and take him from there and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die. You shall not pity him, but you shall purge the blood of the innocent from Israel, that it may go well with you.
"You shall not move your neighbor's boundary mark, which the ancestors have set, in your inheritance which you will inherit in the land that the Lord your God gives you to possess.
"A single witness shall not rise up against a man on account of any iniquity or any sin which he has committed; on the evidence of two or three witnesses a matter shall be confirmed. If a malicious witness rises up against a man to accuse him of wrongdoing, then both the men who have the dispute shall stand before the Lord, before the priests and the judges who will be in office in those days. The judges shall investigate thoroughly, and if the witness is a false witness and he has accused his brother falsely, then you shall do to him just as he had intended to do to his brother. Thus you shall purge the evil from among you. The rest will hear and be afraid, and will never again do such an evil thing among you. Thus you shall not show pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
"When you go out to battle against your enemies and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, who brought you up from the land of Egypt, is with you. When you are approaching the battle, the priest shall come near and speak to the people. He shall say to them, 'Hear, O Israel, you are approaching the battle against your enemies today. Do not be fainthearted. Do not be afraid, or panic, or tremble before them, for the Lord your God is the one who goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.' The officers also shall speak to the people, saying, 'Who is the man that has built a new house and has not dedicated it? Let him depart and return to his house, otherwise he might die in the battle and another man would dedicate it. Who is the man that has planted a vineyard and has not begun to use its fruit? Let him depart and return to his house, otherwise he might die in the battle and another man would begin to use its fruit. And who is the man that is engaged to a woman and has not married her? Let him depart and return to his house, otherwise he might die in the battle and another man would marry her.' Then the officers shall speak further to the people and say, 'Who is the man that is afraid and fainthearted? Let him depart and return to his house, so that he might not make his brothers' hearts melt like his heart.' When the officers have finished speaking to the people, they shall appoint commanders of armies at the head of the people.
"When you approach a city to fight against it, you shall offer it terms of peace. If it agrees to make peace with you and opens to you, then all the people who are found in it shall become your forced labor and shall serve you. However, if it does not make peace with you, but makes war against you, then you shall besiege it. When the Lord your God gives it into your hand, you shall strike all the men in it with the edge of the sword. Only the women and the children and the animals and all that is in the city, all its spoil, you shall take as booty for yourself; and you shall use the spoil of your enemies which the Lord your God has given you. Thus you shall do to all the cities that are very far from you, which are not of the cities of these nations nearby. Only in the cities of these peoples that the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, you shall not leave alive anything that breathes. But you shall utterly destroy them, the Hittite and the Amorite, the Canaanite and the Perizzite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, as the Lord your God has commanded you, so that they may not teach you to do according to all their detestable things which they have done for their gods, so that you would sin against the Lord your God.
"When you besiege a city a long time, to make war against it in order to capture it, you shall not destroy its trees by swinging an axe against them; for you may eat from them, and you shall not cut them down. For is the tree of the field a man, that it should be besieged by you? Only the trees which you know are not fruit trees you shall destroy and cut down, that you may construct siegeworks against the city that is making war with you until it falls.
"If a slain person is found lying in the open country in the land which the Lord your God gives you to possess, and it is not known who has struck him, then your elders and your judges shall go out and measure the distance to the cities which are around the slain one. It shall be that the city which is nearest to the slain man, that is, the elders of that city, shall take a heifer of the herd, which has not been worked and which has not pulled in a yoke; and the elders of that city shall bring the heifer down to a valley with running water, which has not been plowed or sown, and shall break the heifer's neck there in the valley. Then the priests, the sons of Levi, shall come near, for the Lord your God has chosen them to serve Him and to bless in the name of the Lord; and every dispute and every assault shall be settled by them. All the elders of that city which is nearest to the slain man shall wash their hands over the heifer whose neck was broken in the valley; and they shall answer and say, 'Our hands did not shed this blood, nor did our eyes see it. Forgive Your people Israel whom You have redeemed, O Lord, and do not place the guilt of innocent blood in the midst of Your people Israel.' And the bloodguiltiness shall be forgiven them. So you shall remove the guilt of innocent blood from your midst, when you do what is right in the eyes of the Lord.
"When you go out to battle against your enemies, and the Lord your God delivers them into your hands and you take them away captive, and see among the captives a beautiful woman, and have a desire for her and would take her as a wife for yourself, then you shall bring her home to your house, and she shall shave her head and trim her nails. She shall also remove the clothes of her captivity and shall remain in your house, and mourn her father and mother a full month; and after that you may go in to her and be her husband and she shall be your wife. It shall be, if you are not pleased with her, then you shall let her go wherever she wishes; but you shall certainly not sell her for money, you shall not mistreat her, because you have humbled her.
"If a man has two wives, the one loved and the other unloved, and both the loved and the unloved have borne him sons, if the firstborn son belongs to the unloved, then it shall be in the day he wills what he has to his sons, he cannot make the son of the loved the firstborn before the son of the unloved, who is the firstborn. But he shall acknowledge the firstborn, the son of the unloved, by giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he is the beginning of his strength; to him belongs the right of the firstborn.
"If any man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey his father or his mother, and when they chastise him, he will not even listen to them, then his father and mother shall seize him, and bring him out to the elders of his city at the gateway of his hometown. They shall say to the elders of his city, 'This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey us, he is a glutton and a drunkard.' Then all the men of his city shall stone him to death; so you shall remove the evil from your midst, and all Israel will hear of it and fear.
"If a man has committed a sin worthy of death and he is put to death, and you hang him on a tree, his corpse shall not hang all night on the tree, but you shall surely bury him on the same day (for he who is hanged is accursed of God), so that you do not defile your land which the Lord your God gives you as an inheritance.
"You shall not see your countryman's ox or his sheep straying away, and pay no attention to them; you shall certainly bring them back to your countryman. If your countryman is not near you, or if you do not know him, then you shall bring it home to your house, and it shall remain with you until your countryman looks for it; then you shall restore it to him. Thus you shall do with his donkey, and you shall do the same with his garment, and you shall do likewise with anything lost by your countryman, which he has lost and you have found. You are not allowed to neglect them. You shall not see your countryman's donkey or his ox fallen down on the way, and pay no attention to them; you shall certainly help him to raise them up.
"A woman shall not wear man's clothing, nor shall a man put on a woman's clothing; for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God.
"If you happen to come upon a bird's nest along the way, in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, and the mother sitting on the young or on the eggs, you shall not take the mother with the young; you shall certainly let the mother go, but the young you may take for yourself, in order that it may be well with you and that you may prolong your days.
"When you build a new house, you shall make a parapet for your roof, so that you will not bring bloodguilt on your house if anyone falls from it.
"You shall not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, or all the produce of the seed which you have sown and the increase of the vineyard will become defiled.
"You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together.
"You shall not wear a material mixed of wool and linen together.
"You shall make yourself tassels on the four corners of your garment with which you cover yourself.
"If any man takes a wife and goes in to her and then turns against her, and charges her with shameful deeds and publicly defames her, and says, 'I took this woman, but when I came near her, I did not find her a virgin,' then the girl's father and her mother shall take and bring out the evidence of the girl's virginity to the elders of the city at the gate. The girl's father shall say to the elders, 'I gave my daughter to this man for a wife, but he turned against her; and behold, he has charged her with shameful deeds, saying, "I did not find your daughter a virgin." But this is the evidence of my daughter's virginity.' And they shall spread the garment before the elders of the city. So the elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him, and they shall fine him a hundred shekels of silver and give it to the girl's father, because he publicly defamed a virgin of Israel. And she shall remain his wife; he cannot divorce her all his days.
"But if this charge is true, that the girl was not found a virgin, then they shall bring out the girl to the doorway of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death because she has committed an act of folly in Israel by playing the harlot in her father's house; thus you shall purge the evil from among you.
"If a man is found lying with a married woman, then both of them shall die, the man who lay with the woman, and the woman; thus you shall purge the evil from Israel.
"If there is a girl who is a virgin engaged to a man, and another man finds her in the city and lies with her, then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city and you shall stone them to death; the girl, because she did not cry out in the city, and the man, because he has violated his neighbor's wife. Thus you shall purge the evil from among you.
"But if in the field the man finds the girl who is engaged, and the man forces her and lies with her, then only the man who lies with her shall die. But you shall do nothing to the girl; there is no sin in the girl worthy of death, for just as a man rises against his neighbor and murders him, so is this case. When he found her in the field, the engaged girl cried out, but there was no one to save her.
"If a man finds a girl who is a virgin, who is not engaged, and seizes her and lies with her and they are discovered, then the man who lay with her shall give to the girl's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall become his wife because he has violated her; he cannot divorce her all his days.
"A man shall not take his father's wife so that he will not uncover his father's skirt.
Now after this the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them in pairs ahead of Him to every city and place where He Himself was going to come. And He was saying to them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. Go; behold, I send you out as lambs in the midst of wolves. Carry no money belt, no bag, no shoes; and greet no one on the way. Whatever house you enter, first say, 'Peace be to this house.' If a man of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you. Stay in that house, eating and drinking what they give you; for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not keep moving from house to house. Whatever city you enter and they receive you, eat what is set before you; and heal those in it who are sick, and say to them, 'The kingdom of God has come near to you.' But whatever city you enter and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say, 'Even the dust of your city which clings to our feet we wipe off in protest against you; yet be sure of this, that the kingdom of God has come near.' I say to you, it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
"Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles had been performed in Tyre and Sidon which occurred in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you. And you, Capernaum, will not be exalted to heaven, will you? You will be brought down to Hades!
"The one who listens to you listens to Me, and the one who rejects you rejects Me; and he who rejects Me rejects the One who sent Me."
The seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name." And He said to them, "I was watching Satan fall from heaven like lightning. Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you. Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are recorded in heaven."
At that very time He rejoiced greatly in the Holy Spirit, and said, "I praise You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to infants. Yes, Father, for this way was well-pleasing in Your sight. All things have been handed over to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him."
Turning to the disciples, He said privately, "Blessed are the eyes which see the things you see, for I say to you, that many prophets and kings wished to see the things which you see, and did not see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and did not hear them."
And a lawyer stood up and put Him to the test, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" And He said to him, "What is written in the Law? How does it read to you?" And he answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself." And He said to him, "You have answered correctly; do this and you will live." But wishing to justify himself, he said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?"
Jesus replied and said, "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, and they stripped him and beat him, and went away leaving him half dead. And by chance a priest was going down on that road, and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. Likewise a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, who was on a journey, came upon him; and when he saw him, he felt compassion, and came to him and bandaged up his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them; and he put him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn and took care of him. On the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper and said, 'Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, when I return I will repay you.' Which of these three do you think proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell into the robbers' hands?" And he said, "The one who showed mercy toward him." Then Jesus said to him, "Go and do the same."
Now as they were traveling along, He entered a village; and a woman named Martha welcomed Him into her home. She had a sister called Mary, who was seated at the Lord's feet, listening to His word. But Martha was distracted with all her preparations; and she came up to Him and said, "Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to do all the serving alone? Then tell her to help me." But the Lord answered and said to her, "Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things; but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her."

\section{Introduction}
	Let $X\in \R^{n\times p}$ be a matrix such that all columns of $X$
	have unit euclidean $\ell_2$-norm. We denote by $\|x\|_2$ the  $\ell_2$-norm of a vector $x$ and by $\|X\|$ (resp. $\|X\|_{HS}$) the associated operator norm (resp. the Hilbert-Schmidt norm). Let $X_T$ denote the submatrix of $X$ obtained by extracting the columns
	of $X$ indexed by $T \subset \{1,\ldots,p\}$. For any real symmetric matrix $A$, let $\lb_k(A)$ denote the $k$-th eigenvalue of $A$, and we order the eigenvalues as $\lb_1(A)\ge \lb_2(A)\ge \cdots$. We also write $\lb_{\min}(A)$ (resp. $\lb_{\max}(A)$)
	for the smallest (resp. largest) eigenvalue of $A$. We finally write $|S|$ for the size of a set $S$.

	The problem of well conditioned column selection that we condider here consists in finding the largest
	subset of columns of $X$ such that the corresponding submatrix has all singular values in a prescribed interval
	$[1-\epsilon,1+\epsilon]$. The one-sided problem of finding the largest possible $T$ such that $\lb_{\min}(X_T^tX_T)\ge 1-\epsilon$
	is called the Restricted Invertibility Problem and has a long history starting with the seminal work of Bourgain and Tzafriri
	\cite{BourgainTzafriri:IJM87}.
	Applications of such results are well known in the domain of harmonic analysis \cite{BourgainTzafriri:IJM87}. The study of
	the condition number is also a subject of extensive study in statistics and
	signal processing \cite{Tropp:CRAS08}.

	Here, we propose an elementary approach to this problem based on two simple ingredients:
	\begin{enumerate}
		\item Choosing recursively $y\in\cal V$, the set of remaining columns of $X$, verifying
		\bean
		Q(y) \le \frac{1}{|\cal V|} \sum_{x\in\cal V} Q(x),
		\eean
		where $Q$ is a relevant quantity depending on the previous chosen vectors;
		\item a well-known equation (sometimes called \emph{secular equation}) whose roots are the  eigenvalues of a square matrix after appending a row and a line.
	\end{enumerate}
	We obtain a slightly weaker bound (up to $\log$) regarding the involved largest
	subset of columns, but also a more precise result: equispaced upper and lower bounds for all ordered individual singular values of the extracted matrix $X_T$.

	\subsection{Historical background}
	Concerning the Restricted Invertibility problem, Bourgain and Tzafriri \cite{BourgainTzafriri:IJM87} obtained the
	following result for square matrices:
	\begin{theo}[\cite{BourgainTzafriri:IJM87}]
		\label{BT87}
		Given a $p\times p$ matrix $X$ whose columns have unit $\ell_2$-norm, there exists $T\subset \{1,\ldots,p\}$
		with
		$\d |T|\ge d\frac{p}{\|X\|^2}$
		such that
		$C \le \lb_{\min}(X_T^tX_T) $,
		where $d$ and $C$ are absolute constants.
	\end{theo}
	See also \cite{Tropp:StudiaMath08} for a simpler proof.
	Vershynin \cite{Vershynin:IJM01} generalized Bourgain and Tzafriri's result to the case of rectangular matrices
	and the estimate of $|T|$ was improved as follows.
	\begin{theo}[\cite{Vershynin:IJM01}]
		\label{V01}
		Given a $n\times p$ matrix $X$ and letting $\wdt{X}$ be the matrix obtained from
		$X$ by $\ell_2$-normalizing its columns. Then, for any $\epsilon\in (0,1)$, there exists $T\subset \{1,\ldots,p\}$
		with
		\bean
		|T|\ge (1-\epsilon) \frac{\|X\|_{HS}^2}{\|X\|^2}
		\eean
		such that
		$ C_1(\epsilon) \le \lb_{\min}(\wdt{X}_T^t\wdt{X}_T) \le \lb_{\max}(\wdt{X}_T^t\wdt{X}_T)\le C_2(\epsilon)$.
	\end{theo}
	Recently, Spielman and Srivastava proposed in \cite{SpielmanSrivastava:IJM12}
	a deterministic construction of $T$ which allows them to obtain the following
	result.
	\begin{theo}[\cite{SpielmanSrivastava:IJM12}]
		Let $X$ be a $p\times p$ matrix and $\epsilon\in (0,1)$. Then there exists $T\subset \{1,\ldots,p\}$
		with
		$\d |T|\ge (1-\epsilon)^2\frac{\|X\|_{HS}^2}{\|X\|^2}$
		such that  \
		$\d \epsilon^2 \frac{\|X\|^2}{p}  \le \lb_{\min}(X_T^tX_T)$.
	\end{theo}
	The technique of proof relies on new constructions and inequalities which are thoroughly explained in the Bourbaki seminar of Naor \cite{Naor:Bourbaki12}.  Using these techniques, Youssef \cite{youssef} improved Vershynin's result as:
	\begin{theo}[\cite{youssef}]
		\label{youssef}
		Given a $n\times p$ matrix $X$ and letting $\wdt{X}$ be the matrix obtained from
		$X$ by $\ell_2$-normalizing its columns. Then, for any $\epsilon\in (0,1)$, there exists $T\subset \{1,\ldots,p\}$
		with
		$\d |T|\ge \frac{\e^2}{9} \frac{\|X\|_{HS}^2}{\|X\|^2}$
		such that  \
		$1-\epsilon  \le \lb_{\min}(\wdt{X}_T^t\wdt{X}_T) \le \lb_{\max}(\wdt{X}_T^t\wdt{X}_T) \le  1+\epsilon$.
	\end{theo}

	\subsection{Our contribution}
	We propose a short and elementary proof of the following result:
	\begin{theo}
		\label{main}
		Given a $n\times p$ matrix $X$ whose columns have unit $\ell_2$-norm, a constant $\epsilon \in (0,1)$
		there exists $T\subset \{1,\ldots,p\}$
		with $|T|\ge R$ and
		\bea
		\label{card}
		R\log R & \le & \frac{\epsilon^2 }{4(1+\epsilon)} \frac{p}{\Vert X \Vert^2},
		\eea
		such that  \
		$1-\epsilon  \le \lb_{\min}(X_T^tX_T) \le \lb_{\max}(X_T^tX_T) \le  1+\epsilon$.
	\end{theo}
	Notice that when the columns of $X$ have unit $\ell_2$-norm, we have $\|X\|_{HS}={\rm Tr}(XX^t)=p$.
	The price to pay for this short proof is a $\log$ factor in (\ref{card}), but we are able to obtain an individual control of each eigenvalue, see Lemma \ref{control}, which might be interesting in its own right.

	\section{Proof of Theorem \ref{main}}
	\subsection{Suitable choice of the extracted vectors}
	Consider the set of vectors $\cal V_0=\{x_1,\ldots,x_p\}$. At step $1$, choose $y_1\in\cal V_0$. By induction, let us be given $y_1,\ldots,y_{r}$ at step $r$. Let $Y_r$ denote the matrix whose columns are $y_1,\ldots,y_r$ and let $v_k$ be an unit eigenvector of $Y_r^tY_r$ associated to $\lb_{k,r}:=\lambda_k(Y_r^tY_r)$.
	Let us choose $y_{r+1}\in\cal V_r:=\{x_1,\ldots,x_p\} \setminus \{y_1,\ldots,y_{r}\}$ so that
	\bea
	\label{taxto}
	\sum_{k=1}^r  \frac{( v_k^t Y_r^ty_{r+1})^2}{k}  & \le & \frac1{p-r} \sum_{x\in \cal V_r}
	\sum_{k=1}^r  \frac{( v_k^t Y_r^t x)^2}{k}
	= \frac1{p-r}  \sum_{k=1}^r  \frac{\sum_{x\in \cal V_r}( v_k^t Y_r^t x)^2}{k}.
	\eea
	\begin{lemm} \label{yr}
		For all $r\ge 1$, $y_{r+1}$ verifies
		\bean
		\sum_{k=1}^r  \frac{( v_k^t Y_r^ty_{r+1})^2}{k} & \le & \frac{\lb_{1,r} \|X \|^2\log(r)}{p-r}.
		\eean
	\end{lemm}
	\begin{proof}
		Let $X_r$ be the matrix whose columns are the $x\in \cal V_r$, i.e. $X_rX_r^t=\sum_{x\in \cal V_r}xx^t$. Then
		\bean \label{totu}
		\sum_{x\in \cal V_r} (v_k^t Y_r^tx)^2  =  {\rm Tr} \left(Y_r v_k v_k^t Y_r^t X_rX_r^t    \right)
		\le
		{\rm Tr}(Y_r v_k v_k^t Y_r^t) \Vert X_rX_r^t \Vert \le  \lb_{k,r} \Vert X \Vert^2,
		\eean
		which yields the conclusion by plugging in into (\ref{taxto}) since $\lb_{k,r}\le \lb_{1,r}$.
	\end{proof}

	\subsection{Controlling the individual eigenvalues}
	Let us define $\delta$ as
	\bean
	\delta & = & \sqrt{\frac{(1+\e)\Vert X\Vert^2\log R }{p}},
	\eean
	so that, from (\ref{card}), $2\delta\sqrt{R}\le \e$.
	\begin{lemm} \label{control}
		For all $r$ and $k$ with $1\le k\le r\le R$, we have
		\bea \label{hr}
		1- \delta\frac{r+k-1}{\sqrt{r}} \ \le \ \lb_{k,r} \ \le \  1+ \delta\frac{2r-k}{\sqrt{r}}.
		\eea
	\end{lemm}

	\begin{proof}
		It is clear that (\ref{hr}) holds for $r=1$ since then, 1 is the only singular value because the columns are supposed to be normalized.

		Assume the induction hypothesis $(H_r)$: for all $k$ with $1\le k\le r<R$, (\ref{hr}) holds.

		Let us then show that $(H_{r+1})$ holds.
		By Cauchy interlacing theorem, we have
		\bean
		\lb_{k+1,r+1} & \le & \lb_{k,r}, \quad 1\le k\le r \\
		\lb_{k+1,r+1} & \ge & \lb_{k+1,r}, \quad 0\le k\le r-1.
		\eean
		Using $(r+1)(2r-k)^2\le r(2r+1-k)^2$ and $(r+1)(r+k)^2\le r(r+1+k)^2$, we thus deduce
		\bean
		\lb_{k+1,r+1} \le 1+ \delta\frac{2r-k}{\sqrt{r}} \le 1+ \delta\frac{2(r+1)-(k+1)}{\sqrt{r+1}}, \quad 1\le k\le r,\\
		\lb_{k+1,r+1} \ge 1- \delta\frac{r+k}{\sqrt{r}} \ge 1- \delta\frac{(r+1)+(k+1)-1}{\sqrt{r+1}}, \quad 0\le k\le r-1.
		\eean

		It remains to obtain the upper estimate for $\lb_{1,r+1}$ and the lower one for $\lb_{r+1,r+1}$. We write
		\bea \label{add}
		Y_{r+1}^tY_{r+1} & = &
		\left[
		\begin{array}{c}
			y_{r+1}^t \\
			Y_r^t
		\end{array}
		\right]
		\left[
		\begin{array}{cc}
			y_{r+1} & Y_r
		\end{array}
		\right]
		=
		\left[
		\begin{array}{cc}
			1 & y_{r+1}^tY_r \\
			Y_r^ty_{r+1} & Y_r^tY_r
		\end{array}
		\right],
		\eea
		and it is well known that the eigenvalues of $Y_{r+1}^tY_{r+1}$ are the zeros of the secular equation:
		\bea
		q(\lb) :=  1-\lb+\sum_{k=1}^r  \frac{(v_k^tY_{r}^ty_{r+1})^2}{\lb-\lb_{k,r}} \ = \ 0.
		\eea

		We first estimate $\lb_{1,r+1}$ which is the greatest zero of $q$, and assume for contradiction that
		\bea
		\lb_{1,r+1}> 1+ 2\delta\sqrt{r}.
		\label{assup}
		\eea
		From $(H_r)$, we then obtain that for $\lb \ge 1+2\delta\sqrt{r} \ge \lb_{1,r}+\delta/\sqrt{r}$,
		\bean
		q(\lb) \le 1-\lb +\frac{\sqrt{r}}{\delta} \sum_{k=1}^r  \frac{(v_k^tY_{r}^ty_{r+1})^2}{k}:=g(\lb).
		\eean
		Let $\lb^0$ be the zero of $g$. We have $g(\lb_{1,r+1})\ge q(\lb_{1,r+1})=0=g(\lb^0)$. But $g$ is decreasing, so
		\bean
		\lb_{1,r+1} \le \lb^0 = 1+ \frac{\sqrt{r}}{\delta} \sum_{k=1}^r  \frac{(v_k^tY_{r}^ty_{r+1})^2}{k}.
		\eean
		By $(H_r)$, $\lb_{1,r}\le 1+ 2\delta \sqrt{R}\le 1+\e$. Thus, using Lemma \ref{yr} and noting that $r\le p/2$,
		\bean
		\lb_{1,r+1} \le 1+ \frac{2\sqrt{r}}{\delta}  \frac{(1+\e)\Vert X \Vert^2\log(R)}{p} = 1+2\delta \sqrt{r},
		\eean
		which yields a contradiction with the inequality (\ref{assup}). Thus, we have that $\lb_{1,r+1}\le 1+ 2\delta\sqrt{r}$, and therefore,
		$\lb_{1,r+1}  \le 1+ \delta\frac{2r+1}{\sqrt{r+1}}$. This shows that the upper bound in $(H_{r+1})$ holds.

		Finally, to estimate $\lb_{r+1,r+1}$ which is the smallest zero of $q$, we write using $(H_r)$ that
		for $\lb \le 1-2\delta\sqrt{r} \le \lb_{r,r}-\delta/\sqrt{r}$,
		\bean
		q(\lb) \ge 1-\lb -\frac{\sqrt{r}}{\delta} \sum_{k=1}^r  \frac{(v_k^tY_{r}^ty_{r+1})^2}{k}:=\wdt g(\lb).
		\eean
		By means of the same reasonning as above, we prove by contradiction that
		$\lb_{r+1,r+1}\ge 1- 2\delta\sqrt{r}$, which gives
		$\lb_{r+1,r+1}  \ge 1- \delta\frac{2r+1}{\sqrt{r+1}}$ and shows that the lower bound in $(H_{r+1})$ holds. This completes the proof of Lemma \ref{control}.
	\end{proof}

	In particular, we have for all $r\le R$, $\lb_{1,r}\le 1+ 2\delta \sqrt{R}\le 1+\e$ and $\lb_{r,r}\ge 1- 2\delta \sqrt{R}\ge 1-\e$. This concludes the proof of Theorem \ref{main}.

	\begin{rema}
		Many other induction hypothesis may be proposed: $\lb_{k,r}\le u(k,r)$, where $u$ is required to verify $u(k,r)\le u(k+1,r+1)$. The criteria to choose the next vector $y_{r+1}$ has then to be modified accordingly.
		For instance, it can also be proven that one can extract a submatrix so that $\lb_{k,r}\le 1+\delta \sqrt{r-k}$. This yields as well the weaker bound with the $\log$.
	\end{rema}

Asikhulume Security and Training Services is a South African security and cleaning company whose rapid yet controlled, growth and record of service excellence is totally disproportionate to its relatively short period of existence.
INSETA Accredited Training Provider in the Financial Services Industry.
Create your own art work.
Provide activities that are appropriate to ensure that children acquire the necessary skills, concepts and attitudes that form part of the Early Years Foundation Stage (link to curriculum page).


There are two types of discounts on ActivityHero. Automatic discounts that are applied when certain requirements are met, and manual discounts that the business refunds back to the parent.
The Manual discounts in ActivityHero are Free Trial, Referral, and Other. When these discounts are created they will display on the activities chosen to notify parents. You determine if the participant qualifies for the discount, and then refund the participant for the amount of the discount.
The Automatic discounts on ActivityHero are Early Registration, Sibling, Multiple Session, and Promo Code.
This discount will automatically apply to each registration before the expiration date.
This discount will check the parent's ActivityHero account. If the parent is registering multiple family members from the same account, and if the activities take place before the sibling discount expiration date, they will be eligible for the sibling discount.
For sibling discounts, you'll need to make some selections.
If you set the minimum number of siblings to 1 the parent only needs to register 1 family member to redeem the discount, so every child registered will get the discount.
If the minimum number of siblings is 2 the parent needs to register at least 2 family members to redeem the discount.
Tip: Most Sibling discounts should set a minimum number of siblings to 2.
Here you get to choose whether to exclude the initial sibling or apply to all siblings.
Choose "Exclude the initial sibling" only if sibling registered after the first child should have the discount applied. For example: "Sibling discount $20 off each additional family member that registers"
Choose "Apply to all siblings" if all family members should have the discount applied. For example: "If you sign up the whole family, each member receives $20 discount."
Here, set the date for when you'd like the discount to expire. An expiration date is required.
This discount will check the child's registered sessions for your business, and check for the schedules that the discount is applied to. If the child registers for the minimum number of sessions, and the discount expiration date has not passed, the discount will be applied. This even applies to past schedules.
For multiple session discounts, you'll need to make some selections.
This is how many sessions the child must be registered to apply the discount.
You can choose to exclude the initial session or apply to all sessions.
Choose "Exclude the initial session" only if sessions registered after the first should have the discount applied. For example, "Multi-session discount- $20 off each additional session."
Choose "Apply to all sessions" if all sessions should have the discount applied. For example, "Sign up for all camps, and receive a $20 discount for each."
Tip: If you only want the Multiple Session discount to apply to specific activities or a season try creating a different discount for each case.
Choose an expiration date -- this is a required field. You can choose a date that works with your programming season. For example, if you want the discount to apply only during the spring semester, set the discount expiration date for early June. If you want the discount to align with the calendar year, and to apply to all sessions that occur between January-December, set the expiration date for December 31.
When a Promo Code is added it will be applied to the whole cart at checkout. This means if the parent is registering for a single activity then the Promo Code will be applied to the single activity, but if the parent decides to purchase more than one at a time the Promo Code will be applied to each activity in the cart.
A schedule with a promo code will not show as a discount to the parent when they are looking for classes online. Since this is hidden from parents you can use it for special discounts, or to track it's use. If you did want to give a Promo Code to a large group of parents, but only offer a set amount of uses, you can set a limit to the amount of uses to encourage registrations.
For steps to apply discounts follow this link.


Last weekend saw the very last of our Introduction to Bushcraft courses for the year. Our newest member of the office team, Harvey, went along to join in with the fun and see what happens on our courses.
The British weather did not let Harvey and the rest of the group down, staying beautifully hot for the duration of the course. Surely it's going to chuck it down soon?!

Upper Canada Playhouse - Dean & Jerry:
2pm - Matinee - Closing
Playhouse audiences are in for a treat when the hit concert Dean & Jerry: What Might Have Been comes to town October 11 through 14. It's a return engagement after selling out two years ago with an original run that packed houses and wowed audiences who got tickets and disappointed those who didn't. In fact people travelled as far away as Belleville hoping to get last minute cancellations at the door for that original run. As promised, The Playhouse has brought it back for an encore this October and has already extended it four times to accommodate the demand. Created by Jesse Collins and starring Derek Marshall and Nicholas Arnold, it's a live concert with a big difference-fabulous music, hilarious comedy and an engaging story. It features the timeless hits and hilarious bits from the most famous comedy duo of the 50's-Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis.
Backed by a dynamite live band, the show sweeps audiences back to a time remembered for the hits Everybody Loves Somebody, Sway, You're Nobody Til Somebody Loves You, Volare, That's Amore, Ain't That A Kick In The Head, On an Evening In Roma, Return To Me, Standing On The Corner, Memories Are Made Of This, You'll Never Walk Alone, Rockabye Your Baby With A Dixie Melody and many more. It also features the classic comedy routines that made this legendary entertainment partnership famous and takes a peak at their real-life relationship, begging the question 'what if they had never split'?
Creator and director, Jesse Collins, is an Emmy-nominated director and 38-year television, film, stage & radio veteran. After many years directing and acting in long running television series (Katts & Dog, Wind at My Back), Dean and Jerry marks his return to musical variety entertainment – where he started on the CBC's DuMaurier Search for the Stars in 1981. He directed The Playhouse's Plaza Suite this season and is currently the Artistic Director at the Orillia Opera House.
Derek Marshall, a native of Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia, has performed extensively as a singer and actor for more than twenty-five years in theatres, concert halls, clubs & casinos throughout Canada, USA and Europe. He has also been seen in such Playhouse concerts as Vegas Knights and Memories of the Summer of Love.
Nicholas Arnold is an accomplished performer, filmmaker, writer and speaker. His fascination with Jerry began when he was 13 and hasn't stopped. He directed an award-winning feature film and recently launched a new podcast, Paying Tribute – a look at nostalgia entertainment.
The band includes some of the best musicians in the country. Meredith Zwicker, musical director and pianist, has been seen in many Playhouse Christmas shows and most recently appeared in The Buddy Holly Story at the Thousand Islands Playhouse. John Minnis, on trumpet, guitar and keyboards, has enjoyed a career that has taken him around North America and the Caribbean. He continues to perform in Muskoka and the GTA, as well as being a music educator. Naomi Higgins, tenor & alto sax and flute, is a Toronto-based woodwind player, arranger, composer and private teacher who has been traveling the world on ships and with big bands. Bass player Brian Quebec has been a freelance bassist playing genres ranging from classical to country and drummer Logan Coey is in his last year of the Bachelor of Music degree program at Humber College. He has performed all over Ontario with the Deerhurst Live show and several original artists including a performance on Canada Morning Live.
Audiences are encouraged to book soon for the limited engagement of this popular show. The Playhouse's current show, Great Kooshog Lake Hollis McCauley Fishing Derby, continues til September 30.

Martin Keown predicts David Luiz will leave Arsenal this summer
Keown believes Arsenal will go 'in another direction' this summer (Picture: Getty)
Martin Keown says he will be surprised to see David Luiz remain at the club beyond this summer.
Luiz has had contrasting fortunes during his time at the Emirates but remains a key part of Mikel Arteta's defensive line.
The Brazilian is expected to start at the heart of the Gunners' defence in Sunday's north London derby showdown with Tottenham and while he has been impressed with recent performances, Keown believes there is no long-term future for him at the club.
'When he came I said it was the wrong signing,' Keown said.
'I didn't wait for six months or a year, I just felt it wasn't the direction I would have gone in.
Luiz's contract expires at the end of the season (Picture: Getty)
'I was looking at it from a defensive point of view, as what I'm looking for as a priority for a top defender in a one-v-one situation.
'David Luiz has surprised me with how well he has done but he needs to be in a back-five. He plays his best football in a five and at the moment we are playing in a four so there is always that vulnerability.
'For that reason I would like to go in a different direction – we will see what happens in the summer, they should be looking at strengthening, they have got to be.'
Luiz's current deal at the Emirates expires at the end of the season and Keown also says the club need 'four or five' new players to help the club challenge for trophies next season.
He's [Arteta] cleared out a lot of baggage from the Wenger and Unai Emery eras because Ozil, Mustafi and Sokratis have gone and Torreira, Guendouzi and Kolasinac have gone out on loan,' Keown told The Sun.
'That's a lot for a young manager to take on board and he's been quite direct in making those big decisions.
'But now he's freed up the space in his squad and he can't make any mistakes in the transfer market. He needs to bring in four of five this summer and the quality of player has to be absolutely top-drawer.'

NC Attorney General Roy Cooper Addresses M3 Conference Attendees
|In Annual Meeting, Bulletins, Events, Medicaid/Medicare
Roy Cooper addresses the M3 audience.
NC Attorney General Roy Cooper, who is running for governor against incumbent republican Gov. Pat McCrory, delivered remarks during the legislative portion of the M3 conference on Sunday morning. He told the nearly 100 in attendance that he understands the challenges physicians face and vowed to work with the North Carolina Medical Society (NCMS) to ensure physicians can practice medicine without undue regulation.
"Most of all of you just want to treat your patients to get well," he said. "I wish it was that easy, but in this world it's not. We have to work hard to get there. Doctors need to be making the decisions about medical procedures. I want you at the table with me as we make these decisions."
He also said it is "ridiculous that we do not accept the billions of dollars we've already sent to Washington to help people here" through expansion of Medicaid. "I need you to help me as governor to get Medicaid expansion for NC," he said.
Gov. McCrory also was invited to speak at the M3, but declined.

We supply original, compatible and re-manufactured printer ink cartridges for Epson, Canon, Kodak, Lexmark, HP and Brother, many of the Jettec printer ink cartridges contain much more ink than the original OEM inkjet cartridges.
The majority of printer inks and laser toners sold are re-manufactured in the UK by JetTec. These high quality printer cartridges and toner cartridges contain ink that is guaranteed to match the quality of the original manufacturers ink, giving you top quality printing results. Jet Tec printer ink cartridges are generally regarded as the highest quality re-manufactured printer cartridges available.
Our Epson printer ink cartridges contain more ink than the original inkjet cartridges with modified cartridge chips allowing more ink to be released from the cartridge, some releasing 100% more.
Our Hewlett Packard printer ink cartridges are re-manufactured in the UK by Jet Tec, to the highest standard, they offer huge savings over the cost of the original HP inkjet cartridges and in many cases contain more ink. Printer ink is matched to that of the original cartridge.
We supply re-manufactured Canon printer ink cartridges depending upon printer model. Once again more ink than the original printer cartridges is offered and huge savings over the cost of the original inkjets.
We stock all of the popular Lexmark printer ink cartridges, once again re-manufactured in the UK by Jettec and guaranteed to work in your printer to the quality of the original printer cartridges.

Jet Tec, Europe's leading re-manufacturer of inkjet printer cartridges, has won the Queen's Award for Innovation for its Extra Life technology that allows them to put up to 40% more usable ink into the printer cartridge.
Jet Tec Extra Life printer cartridges feature a tiny microprocessor mounted on the inkjet cartridge that allows the printer to extract more ink from the cartridge after it has initially given the signal that the ink has run out. This results in 30% more prints before the cartridge has to be discarded.
Normal inkjet cartridges for Epson printers stop working when the printer decides that the cartridge is close to empty, despite the fact that some ink always remains inside. The alternative design of the Jet Tec Extra Life inkjet cartridges allows them to contain and deliver more ink, and the printer can access this ink thanks to Jet Tec's patent pending "Smart Chip"
Now, thanks to Jet Tec's Extra Life technology, these inkjet cartridges are not only considerably cheaper than the original cartridges, but you get up to 100% more printing capacity absolutely free!
UK based Jet Tec is one of Europe's largest re-manufacturer of inkjet cartridges, employing over 250 people. Further staff are now employed at a distribution centre in Ettlingen, Germany.
The Jet Tec brand was created by DCI for the domestic UK market in 1996 and has now grown into an international brand with distribution of printer cartridges in all major countries of the world.
Jettec inkjet cartridges are re-manufactured in Boston, Lincolnshire, UK, to a very high standard using a tool room that is one of the most technically advanced in Europe. Qualified chemists work in their laboratories to design and manufacturer high quality, colour matched ink.
As a result of this, the Jettec brand is known as the highest quality product on the market.
Jettec is an ISO 9002 certified company and is Europe's leading re-manufacturer in inkjet cartridges. The specialist ink used in their printer cartridges is carefully formulated to match the performance of each printer type, the quality of its ink jet cartridges equaling or superseding that of the original manufacturer.


Last week when I was on the hunt for a summery beverage, the hubs and I went to dinner and a whole list of luscious liberations were staring me in the face. I couldn't wait to indulge in on AND share it with you all!
So the outing was at the hip Pittsburgh burger joint rightfully named Brgr. A total play on a "burger" someone from Pittsburgh and a burger that you eat. Love.
Brgr has a menu of adult shakes and floats. I was going to go for the standard adult root beer float, but my hyper waiter directed me to the Bourbon Cherry, so I obliged. You always trust the waiter, right?
The drink came in a traditional milkshake glass with just the shot of Makers and ice cream – leaving the drinker (me) to pour in the cherry soda, which I kinda liked. Overall two thumbs up!
Oh and the 100% grass-fed burgers are pretty delish too. Tasty and the perfect size – not too big or not too small (that's what she said).

Bristol's best late-night take-aways #2
In the second of a series of posts, Evie Steen and a team of early-hours connoisseurs bring you the definitive guide to how to satisfy ferocious hunger after a few too many pints…
Slix and Rita's
Where to find it: 88-91 Stokes Croft, Bristol BS1 3RD (Slix)
94 Stokes Croft, Bristol BS1 3RJ (Rita's)
Pouring out of Lakota, Love Inn, and Crofters Rights and making their way up Stokes Croft, wobbly club goers part like the red sea onto either side of the road searching for the right food to hit the spot.
Rita's or Slix? The question that divides us all.
Both places have been around since anyone can remember, feeding the 5,000 chicken and chips in the early hours of Saturday and Sunday morning. Rita's has more of an expansive menu – you won't catch a kebab on the menu in Slix - and a man who looks out the window smiling at passersby. But Slix is open until 6am and serves a good portion of fries, so who could really make the decision?
These two places remain the same in the constantly changing area of Stokes Croft. Get your Rita's T-shirt whilst you tuck into your food and try to drown out the screaming of orders and overpowering chart music once you have managed to perch on one of the two chairs available. It's all part of the experience. Slix has a bit less of the in-flight entertainment but sometimes all you want is a quick in-and-out transaction.
Needless to say you've got all the ingredients of a late-night take-away between these two places – irritating drunk people desperate for their kebab, something greasy and over-priced mayo.
Dennis Kebab
Where to find it: 40 Cannon St, Bristol BS3 1BN, just off the bottom of North Street
What to expect: Well, Bedminster is not the most buzzing area past 2am (unless that desire for a kebab arrives on a Sunday night) so you might struggle to find a place to fill your stomach, but this place satisfies the needs of many before packing up for the night. After the trek from town back to your home turf across the river, reward yourself with a well deserved kebab whilst Dennis makes you feel right at home.
House Speciality: The chicken kebab is notably great.
Diamond Kebab and Pizza
Where to find it: 28 Park St, Bristol BS1 5JA
What to expect: This establishment is for those University of Bristol kids who like to venture further into town for a boogie than the pop-infested Triangle and can't make it back to the top of the hill for their greasy kebab. It's even open 24h on a Wednesday, a bit strange, but ideal for those leaving the clubs on the Triangle late on sports society night. Catch a University of Bristol versus UWE scrap outside for entertainment with your meal.
House Speciality: It's got to be the lamb doner.

I love at least half of the songs in this musical, so I had to own the book to have access to them for playing The piano part for my songs are rather simple But that makes it easier for me to focus on the singing part of the performance instead of the piano.

At Home With Popcorn Swiv
Created Apr 30, 2003 | Updated Apr 30, 2003

X-Men 1.5
This was the first of the recent crop of comic-book movies, and it sets the stage for it.
Its dark, grounded in reality, has a fantastic ensemble cast, and is something of an unusual
beast. In some ways the film feels a little incomplete – it doesn't have enough action to feel
like a big action blockbuster, and it doesn't have enough character development to feel like a
drama. It's also only slightly more than 90 minutes long, and feels a little like an introduction
for a larger story. Still, it manages to be an enjoyable film, and I'm inclined to prefer it to
the bigger budget, flashier Spiderman.
Simply put, the story is set in the 'not-too-distant future' and is about Mutants – humans
who have evolved to have 'super-powers'. The darkness of the film stems from the fact that
these powers aren't particularly super – in many cases (such as Rogue, who cannot touch anyone
without drawing their life into herself) they are tragic flaws.
The plot deals with two groups of mutants: the 'heroes' are those who are peaceable and
want to live alongside humans, and are led by Professor X (Patrick Stewart) whose mutant
powers are the ability to get into people's minds. The 'villains' are those who believe that a
war with humans – who are afraid of the mutants' powers - is coming and who therefore take
the fight to them. They are led by Magneto (Ian McKellan), a powerful mutant who can create
magnetic fields and manipulate metal. The film is about the X-Men – Professor X's team who
work at his school – 'Mutant High' – and how they try and stop Magneto destroying the human
race.
It is, fortunately for the cinema-going public, not that simple. Heroes and Villains is too
straightforward a division – Magneto certainly has a point, why not fight back when you are
coming under attack for something that isn't your fault. Of course – as Senator Kelly argues,
Magneto's actions will simply prove his detractors right. Professor X on the other hand, while
undoubtedly good and noble, seems to have few qualms about using his powers to get into other
peoples' minds in order to achieve his own ends. Wolverine (an electrifying Hugh Jackman)
encapsulates the problem – 'Are you sure you're on the right side?' he asks Halle
Berry's Storm.
The acting is not, of course, uniformly excellent. Berry in particular looks uncomfortable –
and gets the worst line of the entire piece – I confess, she still hasn't convinced me that she
can actually act. Famke Janssen as Jean Grey is not nearly as interesting as she should be –
there is a lack of chemistry with Wolverine (of course, it doesn't help her case that Anna
Paquin as Rogue, has a definite spark with Jackman), and both she and James Marsden
(Cyclops) are given relatively little to do. The bigger players: Stewart, McKellan, Jackman
and Paquin – plus Bruce Davison as Senator Kelly, the mutant world's worst nightmare – are
pure class however. They are also well served by director Bryan Singer's obvious ability with
However, Singer seems less confident when dealing with action and effects – partially I
suspect (and hope, given that he's doing the sequel) because this was his film in which he had to
deal with it (his previous efforts, The Usual Suspects and Apt Pupil). Given the lack of major
action set pieces this isn't a huge problem, and he makes up for it by making the film look very
good and his assuredness in dealing with the complicated themes.
It does, naturally, all look very good on DVD – I have slight problems watching things on
VHS nowadays it must be said – and the effects don't appear to have dated at all (unlike those
on Spiderman, which I already find look fake).
Also – as a bonus – the film has branching features. You can watch scenes that were deleted
where they would have been inserted in the film. They're not neatly re-inserted, rather you
flick out of the film and watch them. This is slightly distracting, and they don't add much to
the film so I don't recommend doing it more than once – or at all if you have either the
previous X-Men DVD, or the video with extra scenes on it, as they're the same. You also can't
get to them unless you watch the version of the film with them in (you can watch it without the
branching of course) – unless you, as I did, sit down with the film in your laptop and try to
find them all through various chapter and title menus. You can also watch the film with 17
behind the scenes slots that branch in the same manner. I confess to not having seen them all
yet as I got very tired of trying to find them all! The ones I have seen though are interesting
little snippets – and I just wish you could see them away from the film.
First of all – why '1.5'? Well, it's simple really – this is the second DVD edition of the first
X-Men film. I confess I haven't seen the first edition – but this seems to be simply an
upgrade, it has all the old stuff on it, plus a few nice additions – such as a director's
commentary and a large 'Making Of…' section. And all just in time for the release of X2 on
May 2nd.
As a bonus, of course, the second disc has a 'sneak preview' of X2, which starts as soon as
you put the disc in. Of course – I'm now sitting here whimpering about how much I want to see
the sequel and not concentrating on the rest of the disc! It features several key cast members
talking briefly about the new film, and a small tour of the set with Bryan Singer – there's also
the trailer for it, which is why I'm currently wibbling.
The second disc has two sections: X2, and the Evolution X – which is the Behind the scenes /
Making Of segment. In Evolution X you have two choices – either you can hit 'Play All' and
watch over two hours of documentaries, or you can watch them individually. The one problem
with the 'Play all' feature is that the documentaries aren't divided into chapters – so unless
your player has a 'resume' function the only way to find a particular place is to fast forward.
There are also sections that aren't available through 'Play all' so you need to go to the
individual sections to find things like costume tests, screen tests and multi-angle shots.
First then: the documentaries: Special Effects, Design and three sections on the making – the
beginning, the filming and the reflections. Everyone who was in the cast is involved here, and
all are interesting an informative. The order of these, if you hit Play All, is different to the
order in which they appear on the menus, and is also slightly more coherent – so seems to be the
best way to watch them.
It starts with 'Bringing the X-Men to life' in which the cast and major crewmembers talking
about the making of the film. They're all interesting and amusing – and most of them hadn't
been into the X-Men comics at all. The extra-documentary stuff in this section is also sweet:
Hugh Jackman's first reading with Bryan Singer – which is a little long – and his screen test
with Anna Paquin, which is a gem. We should all be very grateful that the Mission Impossible
II shoot overran so that Dougray Scott couldn't take the part – he would have been good I'm
sure, but not this good.
Next up is 'The X-Factor': dealing with the costumes and make up side of the design. The
most interesting bit deals with Mystique's 'costume' – prosthetics and blue paint effectively –
which seems to have involved some new ideas taking shape. You can also see costume tests for
Cyclops and Storm, a make-up test for Toad and a gallery stuffed full of design images.
Production comes next: the documentary starts in a development meeting, and follows through
filming – effectively an hour long Behind the Scenes, in which chaos and uncertainty often
feature. Extras – not in the Play All – show the filming of a rehearsal and a scene from several
different angles. Post-production, naturally follows, detailing the Special effects work. This
moves character by character and focus' on the way in which they had to make the computer
wizardry fit in with the acting. There are also a couple of extra clips showing how it all fits
together: the gradual process of creating a key scene with Senator Kelly, and animatic/real
screen comparisons of several short scenes from the finale on Liberty Island.
Finally, 'Reflections': this is a brief documentary, filmed from the X2 set, in which Bryan
Singer doesn't feature. What comes across most clearly is the sheer terror of those involved
on the release of the film – they didn't have any previews to get audience reaction to the film,
fairly unusual for this kind of big movie. There is also footage of the premieres: official
stuff from the Ellis Island world premiere – to which Halle Berry appears to have turned up in
a bikini – and which has interviews with everyone involved. There's also some frankly bizarre
footage filmed by producer Tom de Santo's as he travelled to various premieres across the
Then, with the film itself, there is Bryan Singer's director's commentary. In fact it's
Bryan Singer, with 'the other Bryan' – whose relationship to the film I've not quite established
– but he's there because Singer doesn't like to do these things by himself. He doesn't need to
have worried – the other Bryan serves only to lead Singer on, most of the time the director
leaps onto his questions half asked. Singer is naturally informative and interesting, and
particularly likes to focus on the way the film is grounded in reality.
So there you go – just in time for you to go out to watch the sequel. And if the next DVD is
as solid as this one, well then we're in for a treat.
