"Bye Bye Bye" é uma música da boy band americana NSYNC.  Foi lançado em 11 de janeiro de 2000 como o single principal de seu terceiro álbum de estúdio No Strings Attached .  A canção foi escrita e produzida por Kristian Lundin e Jake Schulze, com escrita adicional de Andreas Carlsson.  Suas letras descrevem o fim de um relacionamento romântico; foi também que referencia a separação do grupo de seu gerente Lou Pearlman e sua gravadora RCA Records.

"Bye Bye Bye" foi um sucesso comercial, alcançando o número 4 na Billboard Hot 100 e o top 10 em quase todos países que foi lançada.  A música recebeu uma indicação ao Grammy em 2001 na categoria Record of the Year, mas perdeu para "Beautiful Day" do U2 .

Antecedentes
"Bye Bye Bye" foi escrito e produzido por Kristian Lundin e Jake Schulze, como parte da Cheiron Productions, com letras adicionais de Andreas Carlsson.  Lundin afirmou que foi "totalmente orientado para a produção" e "criada a partir do chute e do baixo".  A música foi originalmente planejada para ser gravada pela boy band inglesa Five, mas eles rejeitaram a música como não tinham gostado.  Antes de seu lançamento oficial em 2000, a música foi tocada no show beneficente LIFEbeat AIDS em Nova York em 1 de dezembro de 1999.

Música e Letra
Liricamente, "Bye Bye Bye" descreve os desejos de um homem com dificuldades para terminar um relacionamento romântico com um outro significativo.  Durante a produção do segundo álbum do NSYNC, No Strings Attached (2000), o grupo processou seu empresário, Lou Pearlman, que eles alegavam estar roubando seus lucros. Isso trouxe alegações de que a letra também abordava a separação de Pearlman e a subsequente saída da RCA Records.

Recepção Crítica
"Bye Bye Bye" foi recebida com críticas geralmente favoráveis de críticos de música.  Stephen Thomas Erlewine, da AllMusic, descreveu a canção como um "número de dança com o coral mais cativante que já cantaram".  Robert Christgau comentou que apresentava o "ritmo pré-fabricado mais eficiente".  Em 2015, Jason Lipshutz da revista Billboard classificou-a no terceiro lugar na lista 'Top 20 Canções essenciais de Boy Bands' que descreve a música como 'um monstro absoluto de um single.'  Também para a Billboard, em 2018, a equipe listou o single em 12º lugar na lista "As 100 Melhores Canções de Todos os Tempos", escrevendo: "É um dos hinos de separação mais decisivos da história do pop, com um movimento de dança icônico para combinar [...] a martelada de Max Martin e o gancho ecoante ajudaram No Strings Attached a ganhar platina em um dia. "  A equipe da Rolling Stone classificou-a como a sexta maior música de boy band de todos os tempos, escrevendo: "continua sendo a trilha definitiva deles, uma explosão de quatro minutos de grandes ganchos, harmonias firmes e meta-subtexto intrigante."  No entanto, outro editor listou como a 17ª música mais irritante de todos os tempos em 2007.  Em 2013, Kathy Iandoli  da revista Complex classificou-a como a melhor canção boy band de todos os tempos.

A música ganhou "Melhor Vídeo Pop", "Melhor Coreografia em Vídeo" e "Escolha do Espectador" no MTV Video Music Awards de 2000, o vídeo mais premiado da noite naquele ano. Também ganhou o prêmio Radio Music Radio, em 2000, como melhor canção do ano.  A música foi nomeada para "Record of the Year" e "Melhor Performance Pop por um Duo ou Grupo com Vocal" no Grammy Awards de 2001 . Outros prêmios incluem 3 Teen Choice Awards em 2000 (Choice Single, Choice Music Video e Song of the Summer), MuchMusic Video Music Award (Grupo Internacional Favorito por "Bye Bye Bye") e Blockbuster Entertainment Award 2001 (categoria Favorite Single para "Bye Bye Bye").  A música foi eleita a música por um boy band/ girl band número 1 na U Choose 40 on C4 na Nova Zelândia .

Desempenho
"Bye Bye Bye" estreou na Billboard Hot 100 em #42, na semana de 29 de janeiro de 2000, alcançando o Top 10 na semana de 4 de março do mesmo ano.  A música permaneceu no Top 10 até 20 de maio de 2000, por 12 semanas. O single atingiu o 4º lugar em abril de 2000 por duas semanas consecutivas. No gráfico Mainstream Top 40 , a música alcançou o primeiro lugar em 4 de março de 2000 e ficou no topo do gráfico por dez semanas, tornando-se uma das músicas com maior número de semanas em primeiro lugar naquele gráfico.  A música foi o single pop mais adicionado ao rádio de todos os tempos, sendo adicionado a mais de 200 estações de rádio somente na primeira semana. O recorde foi anteriormente realizado por rivais os Backstreet Boys.  A canção foi um grande sucesso internacional, alcançando o topo das paradas na Austrália e Nova Zelândia e número 3 no Reino Unido.  Na semana de 24 de março de 2014, a música entrou novamente no New Zealand Singles Chart no número 14.

Videoclipe

O vídeo, dirigido por Wayne Isham e coreografado por Darrin Dewitt Henson, apresenta NSYNC como fantoches controlados por uma má artista (interpretada por Kim Smith). Ela corta Joey e Chris soltos primeiro, e eles correm por cima de um trem em alta velocidade, depois se escondem entre os passageiros para escapar dela.  Ela corta Justin solto próximo, e ele ultrapassa seus cães treinados através de um armazém, eventualmente escapando na chuva.  Então Lance e JC são soltos e caem em um Dodge Viper RT / 10 vermelho.  Eles se afastam dela enquanto são perseguidos por seu BMW Z3 prateado.  Tudo isso é intercalado com fotos da banda dançando em uma caixa azul com uma câmera fixa, fazendo com que pareçam estar em diferentes planos de gravidade.  A edição de vídeo da música também adiciona alguns cortes onde Justin pousa no armazém, e quando Lance e JC começam a perseguição de carro, e adiciona um refrão final adicional.

O vídeo estreou no Making the Video, da MTV, e apresenta a mesma atriz que aparece em "It's Gonna Be Me".  Ele alcançou o 1º lugar no TRL por 25 dias consecutivos, perdendo apenas para ("U Drive Me Crazy"), que chegou a 26 dias seguidos no 1º lugar.  O vídeo ficou em # 60 nos 100 melhores vídeos da MuchMusic .  O vídeo estreou no TRL em 24 de janeiro de 2000.  Em 2018, Nicole Mastrogiannis do iHeartRadio classificou a aparição de Timberlake no vídeo como o top "Momentos icônicos de música dos anos 00". No mesmo ano, os críticos da Billboard classificaram o 21º lugar entre os "maiores videoclipes do século 21".

No YouTube, o vídeo acumulou mais de 179 milhões de visualizações até novembro de 2018.

Na cultura popular

 O videoclipe de " Walks Like Rihanna ", da banda britânica / irlandesa The Wanted parodia o vídeo da música.
 O refrão da música foi brevemente apresentado no filme X2 , em uma cena em que Pyro toca a música do rádio no carro de Cyclops , enquanto ele, Wolverine , Rogue e Iceman estão indo para Boston .  No entanto, a música é muito alta e parece incomodar a todos (especialmente Wolverine), e, portanto, o Pyro rapidamente a desliga.
 A música foi destaque no episódio "My Mirror Image" no seriado de televisão Scrubs as Turk.
 A canção foi destaque no episódio "Last Straw" na série de televisão CSI: Miami .
 O videoclipe de "Like Nobody's Around", da boy band americana Big Time Rush, homenageia cinco canções de sucesso de cinco boy bands, incluindo The Temptations, The Jackson 5, New Kids on the Block, Backstreet Boys e NSYNC.  O videoclipe inclui elementos distintos do vídeo "Bye Bye Bye", incluindo o set, guarda-roupa e o logo do Big Time Rush no estilo do NSYNC.
 A música foi apresentada no comercial de Bai5 exibido no Super Bowl LI.  Justin Timberlake e Christopher Walken, ex-membro do NSYNC, apareceram no anúncio, no qual Walken recitou o refrão da música de uma forma séria.  Timberlake é então visto sentado ao lado de Walken, enquanto a própria música começou a tocar, e as palavras "Bai Bai" aparecem na tela logo depois.
 A música foi destaque na série animada The Simpsons episódio Angry Dad: The Movie .
 A música também estrelou o filme romântico Crossroads, quando Lucy (interpretada pela então namorada de Timberlake, Britney Spears ) e suas amigas ouvem a música no carro de seu namorado.

Is It 'Dinkins Time' Again For NYC?
By Rod Dreher • December 5, 2013, 10:18 AM
Will Rahn reports on a letter that Laurie Cumbo, a New York City politician representing Crown Heights, Brooklyn, wrote to her constituents regarding the "knockout game" — a trend in which young black men attack Jews suddenly and violently, for no reason other than wanting to hurt them. Cumbo, a black woman, strains to be evenhanded and pacific, but boy, does she ever stumble here:
Through those interactions, it was brought to my attention by many of the African American/Caribbean residents that perhaps the relationship between the two communities is not as great as it is currently perceived to be by the leadership. At the meeting, I shared that many African American/Caribbean residents expressed a genuine concern that as the Jewish community continues to grow, they would be pushed out by their Jewish landlords or by Jewish families looking to purchase homes. I relayed these sentiments at the forum not as an insult to the Jewish community, but rather to offer possible insight as to how young African American/Caribbean teens could conceivably commit a "hate crime" against a community that they know very little about.
I admire the Jewish community immensely. I am particularly inspired by the fact that the Jewishc ommunity has not assimilated to the dominant American culture, and has preserved their religious and cultural values while remaining true to themselves. I respect and appreciate the Jewish community's family values and unity that has led to strong political, economic and cultural gains. While I personally regard [sic] this level of tenacity, I also recognize that for others, the accomplishments of the Jewish community triggers feelings of resentment, and a sense that Jewish success is not also their success.
More Cumbo:
As an African American woman, this is challenging, because I recognize that it is Black children and not Jewish children that are playing the "Knock Out Game." Why is this? In many ways governmental neglect, outside uncontrolled influences and failed leadership have led to the breakdown that so many young people of color are currently facing. I feel torn because I feel apart of the very system that has caused the destructive path that so many young people have decided to take while I am simultaneously demanding that they be arrested by that same system.
Wow. Just, wow. John Podhoretz explains why this is so chilling:
So here we have it. … Jews are crowding out black people in Crown Heights, they are stoking resentment because of their financial success, and while there can be no justification for acts of violence, it's a terrible pain for someone like Cumbo to say those perpetrating the violence should be arrested because they are victims too. Such textbook apologetics and excuses for crime hearken back to a different and far worse time for New York City, as does the nauseating stench of Cumbo's classic anti-Semitic stew.
It was in the very neighborhood Cumbo now represents that the worst anti-Jewish event in modern American history took place: A three-day riot in 1991 following the accidental killing of an African-American child by a limousine driven by a Hasidic man. Two men were killed, stores were looted, and homes were targeted by Molotov-cocktail throwers through spotting the mezuzot on the doorfames. It was a shattering event for the city, not least because the mayor at the time, David Dinkins, seemed to feel as though he was powerless to act as the riot spread. His conduct during Crown Heights was so shameful it came to be one of the key reasons Rudy Giuliani ousted Dinkins from City Hall—even though the election took place two years later.
Cumbo is an ally of the incoming mayor, Bill DeBlasio. Her equivocation on anti-Semitic violence is appalling. If white teenagers were attacking innocent black people on the street because they resented blacks for their success, or for any reason at all, I guarantee you that neither Cumbo nor any other politician would be so mealy-mouthed in finding excuses for such criminals.

Elli, I Googled a bit and I guess the case is that of Theodore Riley Floyd? The man was a convict who committed passport fraud to assume the identity of a deceased Jewish man. He wasn't making an innocent mistake.
"They were aghast at the foreigner in their midst. It is my understanding that kosher food is still kosher if prepared by non-Jews (not talking slaughter here) – after all devout Jews can have non-Jewish household help – but they felt unclean."
The food is only one of the ways in which he massively and knowingly violated their religious strictures. And just to take food as an example, non-Jews may cook food to be eaten by observant Jews, but in many cases only under certain conditions (e.g. with Jewish help/supervision, even if that's only lighting the stove). If he'd used those special procedures, then he would have given himself away as a non-Jew, so it's a cinch that he made such food un-kosher.
And also he would thereby have made any kitchen and dining utensils that he used un-kosher as well, so from that point onward any food prepared or served with those utensils, even by (say) his innocent wife, would have been un-kosher.
D**n right they felt he had made them unclean. And he clearly had learned quite a lot about halacha, so he also knew perfectly well how serious these violations were according to Jewish law.
The haredim have their failings, but in this case they were absolutely right to be outraged.
brennan says:
So, the answer to the question in Rod's title is: no. He apparently just made the careless error of taking the "reporting" by the Daily Caller and John Podhoretz at face value — always a mistake — and didn't read (or read carefully?) the original document.
Elli says:
Elinor, Floyd would appear to be the man, but when I read about the story, the part about his identity theft had not yet been known.
Then there is his apparent conversion some years earlier, which was cast into doubt by the identity theft.
Some of the Lakewood Haredim were willing to pull fast ones on the gentiles (concealed marriages, Medicaid, etc) but pulling a fast one on them is a no-no.
Glaivester says:
the "knockout game" — a trend in which young black men attack Jews suddenly and violently, for no reason other than wanting to hurt them.
It's not specifically targeting Jews, it just happens that Jews were the victims in this case. The antisemitism angle gets played up because "attacking whites" or "Attacking non-blacks" does not make the victims part of an official victim class.

The NSDAP/AO was the Foreign Organization branch of the hyphen.
The party members who lived outside the Gregor Strasser and its management was assigned to Dr. Hans Nieland. But Nieland resigned from office on May 8, 1933, because he had become head of the Hamburg police authority, and later, a member of the Hamburg provincial government, whereupon Ernst Wilhelm Bohle was appointed director of the "AO", which served as the 43rd and only non-territorial Gau of the NSDAP. Only actual citizens of the German Reich – Imperial Germans (German: Reichsdeutsche) – with a German passport could become members of the AO. Persons of German descent, so called ethnic Germans (German: Volksdeutsche), who possessed the nationality of the country in which they lived, were refused entry to the Nazi Party.
In the Dominican Republic 2
In Sweden 3
In 1928, in Union of South Africa, which enjoyed great popularity (see German Namibians) and maintained numerous offices in the former German South-West Africa (today Namibia). NSDAP Local Groups (German: Ortsgruppen) included at least 25 party comrades (German: Parteigenossen), while the so-called Stützpunkte (English: bases) had five members or more. Furthermore, large Local Groups could be partitioned into Blocs (German: Blöcke).
Ideological training and congruity of all party comrades with the interests of the German nation were the principal tasks of the NSDAP/AO. It was assigned the mandate of uniting all NSDAP party members (and members of NSDAP-affiliated organizations) living abroad in a loosely affiliated group and to educate them in the philosophy, ideology and political programs of the NSDAP for the betterment of Germany. The AO was not a Fifth Column organization and had ten basic principles to be followed that included:
"Obey the laws of the country in which you are a guest.
"Let the citizens take care of the internal policy of the country where you are a guest; do not mix in these matters, even by way of conversation.
"Identify yourself to all, on all occasions, as an NSDAP party member.
"Always speak and act on behalf of the NSDAP movement, thus doing honor to the new Germany. Be honest, honorable, fearless and loyal.
"Look out for all your fellow Germans, men of your blood, style and being. Give them a hand, irrespective of their class. We are all creators of our people."
These and the other principles were intended to create a feeling of amiability towards Germans and Germany in general and hopefully convince as many foreigners as possible that the NSDAP was the right choice for Germany, and as result, the rest of the world.
In the Dominican Republic
By the early 1940s, the NSDAP/AO had around 50 organized members in the Santo Domingo, Puerto Plata, Montecristi, Cibao Valley and San Pedro de Macorís.[1]
In Sweden
NSDAP/AO had a Landesgruppe Schweden. During the first years of World War II it was led by W. Stengel, but the leadership was later taken over by the German diplomat Heinz Gossmann. There were several ortsgruppe in different parts of Sweden, such as Gothenburg, Borås, etc.[2]

Review of the Week: All is Lost
There was a discrete pro-gression of personal opinions that attended my viewing of All is Lost, the lost-at-sea tale from director J.C. Chandor (Margin Call) and starring Robert Redford as a lone yachtsman, opening Friday at the Cedar Lee Theatre, Cinemark Valley View and Regal Crocker Park.
For the first 45 minutes, I was convinced that very soon I would become irreconcilably bored. The film chronicles a modern mariner's eight grueling days on the Indian Ocean after an accident, and there's an awful lot of small-scale play-by-play — pumping the bilge, tying knots, manufacturing meals, etc.
Like a lot of slow, minimalist foreign movies, this one, I thought, teetered on the brink of "entertainment," and seemed self-satisfied with its aspiration. For instance, after the creaky voice-over from Redford in the opening minutes, there is no speaking at all until Redford leans over a waterlogged radio and calmly issues a distress call. The silence — along with the utter lack of context — struck me as sort of gimmicky.
For the next 20-or-so minutes, when I realized forcefully that I was the opposite of bored, I suspected that All is Lost might be a good movie after all, but maybe not much more than something Esquire would get a raging hard-on over: You know, a real man's-man film, one which celebrates the ingenuity and resolve of a fashionable guy who knows how to work with his hands and use a sextant. (Plus, the seascape cinematography makes The Perfect Storm look like something affiliated with Sega Genesis).
But for the film's final 45 minutes, when I was what you might call enraptured, I became conscious that the film had crossed a line. This shit was amazing. Redford's performance — already virtuosic as a solo act, but even more so as a silent one — is a lock for an Oscar nomination.
At 77 years old, he is a spectacle to behold, a living legend, not acting so much as just existing up there. There's a moment when, in the darkness of his boat's cabin, hours before it will most certainly sink, he pulls out a shaving kit and shaves. Shaves! His character is identified in the credits only as "Our Man," and his lack of personal history suddenly becomes less bothersome when you realize that you already know him: He's the guy from The Sting and All the Presidents' Men and The Natural.
And his plight becomes increasingly dire as the days progress. His yacht's structural damage is soon beyond repair. The weather's failure to cooperate is, like, totally hostile. Sharks are involved. Provisions and hope run on empty. "Total indifference" is reckoned with in a face-to-face way.
What we have here is nothing less than Man v. God, and you realize just how significantly more potent and moving it is than what the film could have been, a high-end Man v. Wild. This movie is a journey — for Redford and the viewer — a solo voyage that even Hemingway himself might have envied. J.C. Chandor, who has now demonstrated a remarkable breadth of talent with Margin Call and All is Lost, has selected picture-perfect imagery and motifs to tell this story with Redford at its literal helm.
To say nothing of the film's final moments — a masterpiece finale — our man, in moments of fear or frustration, consults a Celestial Navigation for Mariners book. Rest assured that the "navigating" which this film both probes and inspires concerns more than just stars.

Why A Basic Understanding Of Expertise Is Essential To Politics!
The Advanced System and Materials Testing Laboratory (ADMATEL) is a class 100K cleanroom laboratory geared up with advanced analytical equipment for failure evaluation (FA) and materials characterization. Constructing on the UK-US partnership, the Arts and Humanities Analysis Council and the Smithsonian Institution are extending a successful history of partnerships by growing a brand new collaboration based mostly on the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History and focused on rising using digital research skills in museums.
The first major venture of the UK-US Science and Technology Settlement is UK investment within the Lengthy Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF) and Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), for which the government has confirmed £sixty five million funding.
It's composed of a Science and Technology Board (STB), Scientific and Technical Committees and three Govt Bodies; the Workplace of the Chief Scientist (OCS), the Collaboration Help Office (CSO), and the Centre for Maritime Analysis and Experimentation (CMRE).
One would assume that technology makes the world smaller and extra intimate for apparent causes. Enterprise technology is growing everyday to assist firms get an edge on their competition in addition to bring extra engaging services and products into the market place.

It's been my experience that the adults in the group are always asked for valid FL ID, both at the theme parks and the resorts. Last time I went a few weeks back, I was checking our family in at our room, and found that each of us needed to be present and show our FL IDs at the front desk. I had to go find the rest of my family that was already in the gift shop in order to check us in! Kids are usually let in alongside the adults, because if the adults are showing FL ID, it is assumed the children reside with them.
When I've called in to make reservations in the past, I always make it a point to ask about any discounts available during our stay. You should try the same when you go to make your reservations, as there are at times discounts for non-FL residents. In fact, one time I found that a room I wanted on the FL resident discount was no longer available, (since there are a set number of rooms set aside for each discount), but there was another non FL resident discount available that saved me a few dollars on a similar room.
Hope this helps, but feel free to come back to the Moms Panel if we can help you in your planning some more!

Phil Dawson's Story
PHIL DAWSON joined the valued team of Rennie Grove volunteers five years ago after the charity's nurses cared for his mother, and says: "This is an organisation that has stolen my heart and that I believe in totally."
Moved by the impact that the hospice at home nursing team had at a fraught time, Phil decided to become involved where he could. "Margaret, mother's nurse, was an immediate inspiration in the ways she relieved anxiety. The inspiration, love and support she gave was a wonderful tonic to everyone," he says.
The former IT systems training manager from Chalfont St Peter explains: "Previously unaware of the charity, I wanted to know more about this organisation because I was retired and needed an association with such a supportive and caring service and – hopefully - help."
Since then Phil has been spreading the word for Rennie Grove in various ways. He has been a volunteer van driver, shifting bulky items between our offices and outposts. He is also an ambassador, delivering the Rennie Grove message to groups and organisations such as WIs and golf clubs, which he describes as a hugely fulfilling role. In addition, he helps at Bainbridge House, the retail and trading hub in Berkhamsted, arranging for donated CDs and DVDs to be sold via Music Magpie.
"They can't be sold in the shops but we usually re-sell about 4-500 to organisations every week, which provides a regular income," he says.
More recently, Phil has been training to become a volunteer listener. In this role, volunteers can offer a supportive ear to patients, carers, and families of patients coping with illness and bereavement as part of the range of care provided by Rennie Grove's Family Support Services.
Phil's affection for Rennie Grove continues to spur him on to support it wherever possible. "I am always looking for something else I can do. I have been totally bowled over by the organisation from the start. You only ever hear complimentary things said about it from patients, carers and their families. I want to make sure that it continues with that same ethos."
He sums up: "It always makes me feel good when I've done something for Rennie Grove, thinking that my small efforts could have been the difference in a nurse being able to help someone or their family in a time of greatest need - thank goodness that we have Rennie Grove in our area."

How Should Doctor Who Celebrate Its 60th Anniversary?
How would you like to see Doctor Who mark its 60th anniversary in November 2023? We look at the highs and lows of the anniversary episodes so far…
By Jamie Andrew | July 8, 2021 |
Photo: BBC
Since hitting screens in 1963, Doctor Who has gone from televisual titbit to cultural phenomenon to institution to something approaching a secular religion. It's older than Star Trek and Star Wars, if not quite as world-renowned; it's younger than The Twilight Zone, yet more frequent, and frequently successful, in its iterations.
The show owes its laudable longevity to a series of happy accidents, shrewd moves and fortuitous casting decisions in its formative years, not least of which was the radical re-casting of the main character after William Hartnell became too unwell to continue; a bold gambit that could just as easily have soured the audience and sunk the show as cemented its status as a pop culture behemoth. Thankfully – as well we know – the introduction of the concept of Regeneration was the key to Doctor Who's enduring presence, adaptability and relevance. While William Hartnell wowed a generation of children and their families as the curmudgeonly yet kindly First Doctor, without Patrick Troughton's affable, vulnerable and very human turn as the Second Doctor, there might not even have been a fifth anniversary, much less the one we're approaching.
Doctor Who – the world's longest-running sci-fi show – is now on the cusp of its 60th anniversary, a milestone it will reach in November 2023 with, well… who knows who at the helm. But how should it commemorate its anniversary? What would fans like to see? First, let's jump in the TARDIS and find out how the show has marked its previous anniversaries.
10th Anniversary: 'The Three Doctors' (1973)
'The Three Doctors' wasn't an anniversary celebration in the way we've come to understand it now. There was little pomp or spectacle, not by Who standards anyway. It barely even qualified as an anniversary story, sneaking in at the start of 1973, many long months before the show's actual birthday. Instead, the first multi-Doctor story was a quiet affair, the highlight of which was, naturally, the barbed banter between Troughton's bumbling space hobo and Pertwee's aristocratic martial artist. Of course, Hartnell's First Doctor featured too, forming the triumvirate promised in the title, although owing to ill health, his appearances were rationed and entirely confined to the TARDIS' viewing screen, from where he doled out advice and withering put-downs.
In this mildly ho-hum but fun adventure, the Doctors come face to face not only with each other, but also Omega, Gallifrey's greatest figure of legend, who in his isolation and rage has become a supremely camp villain, fond of squatting and plotting in pocket-dimensions with only telepathically-controlled blobs of goo for company. I guess it's true what they say: never meet your heroes.
20th Anniversary: 'The Five Doctors' (1983)
By 1983, things had been kicked up a notch. Here we had an ambitious tale that weaved together 20 years' worth of Doctors, and their friends and enemies. No amorphous blobs or bonkers old Time Lords in ball-gowns here, but Cybermen, Daleks, Yetis, The Master – and newcomer the Raston Warrior Robot, a sort of ninja-dancing death machine in a tight lycra gimp-suit.
As before, the anniversary show's title was something of a misnomer, though admittedly 'The Three Doctors, No Doctor and a Sort of Doctor' probably wouldn't have been as arresting. Tom Baker declined to participate, necessitating the use of stock footage from the then-incomplete serial 'Shada' to represent the Fourth Doctor. William Hartnell had died in 1975, and so The First Doctor was portrayed by Richard Hurndall (who himself died less than a year after transmission of 'The Five Doctors'). Still, what the feature-length episode lacked in marquee names, it made up for with a state banquet of companions, even bringing back K9. We see the Second Doctor chumming up with the Brigadier and Captain Yates (plus experiencing a vision of Jamie and Zoe), the Third Doctor teaming up with Sarah Jane Smith, and the First Doctor reuniting with his granddaughter, Susan, who seems to have completely forgotten he'd abandoned her in a far-future, war-ravaged earth at the close of 'The Dalek Invasion of Earth'.
The story is a nonsensical, confusing, over-the-top mess, nothing more than a rising pyramid of side-quests and fan-service set-pieces all culminating in a damp squib of an ending. But you know what? To quote Christopher Eccleston's Doctor: it's fantastic. The best and only approach to 'The Five Doctors' is to switch off your critical faculties, sit back, and let warm rivulets of novelty and nostalgia rinse their way over your amygdala. Coo as the First Doctor tricks the Cybermen at electric chess. Cheer as the Second Doctor encounters his old nemesis the Yeti. Laugh your pants off as the Third Doctor uses a tow rope to save Sarah Jane from the perils of a very slight incline. And lament that the whole episode wasn't just the Doctors trapped in a room together being really, really catty with each other.
25th Anniversary: 'Silver Nemesis' (1988)
The show's 25th anniversary year gave Sylvester McCoy's Seventh Doctor his first taste of both the Daleks and the Cybermen. 'Remembrance of the Daleks' wasn't just McCoy's best, it was arguably one of the best of the Classic Who era. The Seventh Doctor brooded, calculated and plotted, a noticeably darker figure to the spoon-playing, spoonerism-addicted, spoonish buffoon we'd been introduced to in Season 24. His vengeful, genocidal actions at the close of the serial pretty much kick-started the Time War. Ace was on fine form, too, dashing around Coal Hill school in 1963 wielding explosives and a baseball bat. 'Silver Nemesis' was the actual anniversary episode, and it was by far the weaker of the two commemorative offerings, but still a tremendous amount of silly fun. Nazis, Cybermen, medieval interlopers, an angry statue, the Doctor bopping to jazz. What's not to like?

Doctor Who's Best Comfort-Viewing Episodes

30th Anniversary: 'Dimensions in Time' (1993)
By the time Doctor Who's 30th anniversary came along in 1993, the show had already been cancelled for four years, entering that phase of its history known to fans as The Wilderness Years. The show had become, in deed and in memory, a parody of itself; a forgotten, end-of-the-pier relic. The only thing left of its legacy was a shared perception of how it had been at its campiest and silliest. All of this is painfully apparent in 'Dimensions in Time', a horrific charity crossover special somewhere between Doctor Who and BBC soap opera EastEnders. Thankfully, this two-parter isn't considered canon, though I'm happy to provide the extra 'n' to have it shot out of one.
On the one hand, you could say that this was just a diverting little segue to raise money for sick children, and thus shouldn't be judged too harshly, nor taken too much to heart. On the other hand, this was the only Doctor Who content produced for its anniversary year, so it's hard not to interpret the existence of 'Dimensions in Time' existence as a hard slap in the face from an infinitely rolling multiverse of giant outstretched hands.
While 'The Five Doctors' leaned into nostalgia, 'Dimensions in Time' is entirely composed of it, chopping and changing Doctor and Companion combos in an orgy of What-If-ness (though admittedly, it was nice to see the Sixth Doctor get his chance to interact with the Brigadier, even if he was just shouting things at him over the noise of a helicopter). The Rani here completes her journey from plausible character with complex motivations to full-blown panto baddy. Tom Baker again sits this one out, opting instead to deliver ASMR from inside a computerised lava lamp. Near the climax of the piece, EastEnders' Albert Square falls under attack from a multitude of Who's most infamous monsters (and some not so), and no-one except the Doctors and their revolving retinue of companions seem to care. It's hard not to perceive a corollary with how the show itself was regarded by the general public at that time, a state of affairs not helped by audio-visual snot like this. In retrospect, the best 30th anniversary celebration would have been none at all.
40th Anniversary: 'Scream of the Shalka' (2003)
'Scream of the Shalka' was produced to tie in with Doctor Who's fortieth anniversary. It aired as a series of fully-animated webisodes – a forerunner of the animation now routinely used to resurrect lost episodes from Classic Who's yesteryears. It starred Richard E Grant as a now non-canonical version of Gallifrey's most famous traveller, and put him toe-to-toe with a race of inter-dimensional, world-conquering, telepathic, super-sonic lava beasts. It was written by Who aficionado Paul Cornell (who would later pen 'Father's Day' and 'Human Nature/The Family of Blood'). And it was good, very good indeed.
Richard E Grant's Doctor is tall, gaunt and imposing, with a style of dress somewhere between vampire royalty and ostentatious undertaker. He's blunt, withering, cantankerous and all-round deliciously alien, much like Peter Capaldi at the beginning of his tenure as the Twelfth. When he orders wine from an English bar, Alice (Sophie Okonedo) his server and companion-to-be, tells him, 'We only do dry or sweet,' to which he spits back, 'And I don't do sweet.' There is also a plaintive, desperate loneliness about this Doctor, evident from the presence in his TARDIS of an android containing the consciousness of the Master (Derek Jacobi, who would later play the Master again on TV next to David Tennant's Tenth) with whom he travels.
All of this would have been interesting to unpack and explore had 'Scream of the Shalka' precipitated a full and continuing series, which was the intention at the time, a plan stopped only, of course, by the announcement that the show would be returning to television. This blessed move had not only been inspired by but made possible by work on this project. Now that's a 40th anniversary present and a half.
And with that, Christopher Eccleston would be the ninth Doctor, not Richard E Grant, and while that was, well, fantastic, it's impossible not to wonder… what if?
50th Anniversary: 'Day of the Doctor' (2013)
By the dawning of its 50th year, the show had been back on screens for eight years and three Doctors. The modern incarnation of the show had re-ignited the nation's love affair with Doctor Who, adding widespread critical acclaim and global commercial success to its former cult appeal. It was clear this anniversary special had to be its biggest and boldest yet, and so it proved.
Showrunner Steven Moffat brought his best mind-bending, timey-wimey-ness to bear on 'Day of the Doctor', a story that brought together UNIT, Zygons, time-travelling paintings, a re-framing of the Time War, the re-emergence and resurrection of Gallifrey, and, of course, the sheer delight of the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors having the time of their lives teaming up. Added to the mix, in lieu of the Ninth Doctor (after Christopher Eccleston declined to participate), was John Hurt's The War Doctor, a grizzled, frazzled veteran of The Time War – The Doctor who came to exist because he was capable of doing things that other Doctors couldn't or wouldn't but who, in the end, proved himself more than worthy of Doctor-hood. Not to mention the appearance of the mysterious Curator at the episode's end, sporting a very familiar yet age-worn face.
2013 was an embarrassment of riches for the show. Not only did we get the exciting and engaging 'Day of the Doctor', but 'An Adventure in Space and Time', the touching and contemplative story of William Hartnell's (here played by future First Doctor, David Bradley) relationship with the show; 'The Night of the Doctor', a mini-episode that featured the welcome return of the Eighth Doctor (Paul McGann); and, of course, the absolutely wonderful 'The Five-ish Doctors', a surrealist, meta, very funny, Curb Your Enthusiasm-style romp that followed the exploits of Peter Davison, Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy as they tried desperately to insert themselves into the 50th anniversary celebrations.
60th Anniversary: TBA (2023)
So what of the 60th? Traditionally, these kinds of milestones aren't celebrated with as much intensity and fervour as, say, the 25th or the 50th. However, given that the show appears to be going through a decline in ratings and popularity, perhaps a big barnstormer is just what the Doctor ordered; something to give the show a shot in the arm to see it through the next six decades, rather than risk it tumbling over a cliff and staggering into the desert of its next wilderness years.
A multi-Doctor story seems the sure-fire way to do that. But who, and how many? Though Christopher Eccleston has returned to the Whoniverse in Big Finish form, the jury is still out on whether he'd be willing to participate in a fully-fledged BBC iteration of the show again. While the rest of the modern contingent's faces are still fresh, though, it would be a joy to see the Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth and Thirteenth Doctors get together. Perhaps even in tandem with the Eighth Doctor, who surely deserves another crack at the small-screen whip, however brief. It's more likely, though, that Jo Martin's Fugitive Doctor would be the one to join them, contingent upon whether or not she returns in the upcoming 13th season, and how her arc pans out.
How about involving the classic Doctors? Not in a peripheral capacity as a sequel to 'The Five-ish Doctors' (although that would be very welcome) but due to the almost infinite possibilities inherent in the premise of the show, it surely wouldn't be difficult to fashion a story in which Doctors Four to Seven returned togged up in their trademark outfits, along with their contemporary, and very age-worn faces. Perhaps some entity could pluck them from the time-streams and hold them captive, explaining their appearance through some sort of malfeasance or timey-wimey-ness. Big Finish has already given us the supreme delight of the Tenth Doctor teaming up with the Fourth and Fifth Doctors. What a joy it would be to behold the Sixth and Twelfth Doctors trying to out-bicker each other, or the Fourth Doctor passing judgement on the Eleventh's bow-tie?
Might other, more unexpected Doctors appear? Thanks to the precedent set by The Mandalorian in plucking the character of Ahsoka Tano from the Star Wars' animated universe, and setting her down in live-action continuity, there's no reason why the Whoniverse can't do the same with The Shalka Doctor. 'But he's not canon,' I hear you cry. Perhaps so. But the seismic aftershocks of 'The Timeless Children' took canon and crushed it to dust. If we're going to be stuck with it, might as well extract as many pluses from it as possible before some future showrunner decides to retcon the whole affair. It doesn't even need to be connected to existing lore. If there are multiple, even infinite, dimensions out there, the Shalka Doctor may very well hail from one of them.
As to monsters? The Daleks and the Cybermen have been rather over-used lately, and their appearance in an anniversary special would be neither special nor especially welcome. It may be time to bring back an old monster or foe, one of supreme power that could give the Doctors a run for their money. Could the Black Guardian again don his crow-hat and return to wreak havoc with time? Or even the mighty Sutekh, who in 'The Pyramids of Mars' almost destroyed both the Fourth Doctor and the very world itself?
Whatever happens on Doctor Who's next big anniversary, let's just pray to the cosmos that it veers closer in tone to 'Day of the Doctor' or 'The Five Doctors'. Nobody wants to see a cross-over with Coronation Street.
How would you like to see Doctor Who celebrate its 60th anniversary?

Active Dental Peroxide for Maximum Enamel-Safe Whitening.
Over packaged.. The tube is much less than half full! I haven't used the product very long yet but so far I have not seen any difference at all.. I'm very disappointed. As for the 'clean mint taste', it tastes more like ground up mint leaves mixed with hydrogen peroxide. Not exactly appealing. This toothpaste makes me very angry and I feel very ripped off.
Love this product. Only complaint is that the tube is false advertising. As soon as I opened the tube it was mostly air!! An the paste is so hard to squeeze out. O well, can't always be perfect right?
Would you recommend Luster Premium White 7 Sensitive Toothpaste?


A herniated disc can be quite painful, especially if the herniated material compresses nerves. If you've experienced persistent back pain that may be accompanied by shooting pain, weakness, and numbness in other areas of the body, you might consider visiting a spine center near you in Miami. A physician can explain your herniated disc treatment options, which can include conservative and surgical treatments.
Patients with a herniated disc are generally advised to try conservative treatments for at least the first six weeks. Some patients respond well to medications such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). In severe cases, patients may be prescribed a short course of corticosterone medications such as prednisone and stronger pain relievers such as COX-2 inhibitors or narcotics. An epidural injection can deliver anti-inflammatory drugs directly to the area of the herniated disc.
In addition to medications, the spine doctor may refer patients to a physical therapist. A customized series of gentle stretches and exercises can reduce the pressure on the nerve root and alleviate symptoms. At home, patients can try alternating cold and heat therapy to relieve the pain.
If the patient's symptoms are not sufficiently relieved with conservative treatment options after about six weeks, it may be time to consider surgery. An orthopedic surgeon will determine the best surgical approach for each individual patient. One type of surgery that may be helpful is disc decompression or discectomy. A discectomy may be performed in conjunction with a laminotomy or laminectomy. This involves the removal of the lamina, which is the back portion of the vertebra. In a laminotomy, the surgeon removes the entire lamina. A laminectomy involves removing only part of a lamina. Removing this small piece of bone allows the surgeon better access to the herniated disc. Then, the surgeon can remove the herniated material during the discectomy. Following the discectomy, the surgeon may need to stabilize the spine with a spinal fusion. This typically involves inserting surgical hardware such as a plate and screws to fuse the two vertebrae together. A bone graft may also be placed at the site.

Catherine Clark Kroeger
Witnessing Against Abuse
The newly formed Advisory Council on Violence Against Women, co-chaired by Attorney General Janet Reno and Secretary of Health and Human Services, Donna Shalala, is seeking to maximize the impact of the Violence Against Women Act by recruiting the collaboration of national leaders from law enforcement, the media, colleges and universities, sports, health care, primary and secondary education, the corporate workplace and also from religion. On October 11, 1996, leaders from many faiths and religious groups gathered in Washington DC at an interfaith breakfast, with President Clinton as honorary chairperson of the event. The Attorney General gave the key-note address, and leaders of various faith communities were asked to respond briefly. Speaking for evangelicals, Catherine Kroeger made the following remarks:
God said to Cain, "The blood of your brother Abel cries to me from the ground." What of the blood of thousands of our sisters? Does not that blood too cry out to God and to our consciences?
Although we evangelicals are a diverse group, one of our common distinctives is a commitment to the authority and inspiration of Scripture. We believe that the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament are the inspired Word of God, our only infallible guide in matters of faith and practice. The Bible condemns violence scores of times, as well as stalking, lying in wait, word-twisting, threatening, and other forms of abuse. The Scriptures are quite explicit that the duty of the righteous is to deliver the oppressed from the hand of the violent.
Yet how often we hear of desperate women who go to the church for help, and then are sent home to highly dangerous situations along with the instruction to "Be more submissive and the problem will take care of itself." This is not the calling of a church or of an individual believer. The Bible says: "Do justice and righteousness, and deliver from the hand of the oppressor the one who has been violated . . . . Is not this to know me?" says the Lord (Jer 22:3, 16).
Sometimes we have endorsed a theology that made our ultimate priority the preservation of a certain power structure within the family—even at the price of human life. Jesus indicated that other priorities were higher (Matt 10:35-37; Luke 12:53) and Jesus once asked: "Is it lawful to do good or to do harm, so save life or to kill?" (Mark 3:4).
Our first obligation to a battered woman is not to offer bad advice but to offer assistance in finding safety for her and her children. This may well include transportation, lodging, and allocation of appropriate resources. Certainly it will include prayer, counseling, and a network of emotional support. She should be allowed, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, to come to her own decision about how to proceed without being subject to pressure or opprobrium.
The Apostle Paul wrote that the Christian community should take decisive action when a domestic offense becomes known in its midst, and that there is to be zero tolerance for abuse.
And what of the offender, often more persuasive than his victim and all too often a person of influence in the congregation? Such people may be mentored, monitored and ministered to, but must not gain our sympathy or support. They must be made to face the consequences of their own behavior. Twice in the New Testament, batterers are specifically disqualified from church leadership. And the prophet Isaiah declared: "You cannot strike one another with wicked fists and expect your prayers to be heard on high" (Is 58:4).
Some folk have received the mistaken impression that a man has a God-given right to handle in his own way whatever goes on in his own household. Notably, however, our pilgrim forefathers were very stern in their handling of domestic abuse. They viewed abuse as a community concern that must be addressed and firmly corrected. The pilgrims were indeed committed to the precepts of the Scriptures, but they insisted that the Bible must be read in the light of human reason and serious scholarship. We can do no less today.
These Scriptures were written long ago, and they must be studied diligently. We must ask: What does the text say in the original language? What did the text mean to the people to whom it was first directed? And finally, how should it be applied to us in today's world?
One concept that needs to be addressed is the metaphor of the "head" as it is used in the New Testament, where the wife is bidden to submit to the husband, who is called her "head." A misconception at this point can readily become a breeding ground for abuse. The ancients made many interesting observations about the significance and function of the head within the body, but the notion of dominance was not among them. More frequently the understanding is one of communication, interconnection and involvement with other parts of the body.
We should next consider the meaning of the Greek word translated as "submit" in passages about women. It most definitely does not indicate that women should become door mats. It can indeed mean to obey or yield to the wishes of another, but it can also mean to adhere to, associate with, identify with, be loyal to, behave responsibly toward someone, or relate in such a way as to make meaning. Such concepts are needed in building healthy, non-violent marriages embodying love, respect and honor.
The Bible reveals women as created in God's image equally with man, equally gifted and endowed, of equal worth. We must meet the needs of both men and women firmly, creatively and constructively. The Bible was never intended as a weapon of oppression. It is instead an instrument of liberation, reconciliation and healing.

It's not unusual for YouTube to remove accounts. Over Q3 of 2018 YouTube removed over 1.6 million accounts, 79.6% of which were had community guideline violations for being misleading, spam, or scams.
Of the 30 million YouTube channels that Paladin Software tracks every day to power our Locator app, which helps businesses easily find creators to work with, we typically see around 500,000 channels lose 1 or more subscribers every day. However, from December 13-14 we saw a massive increase, showing over 2 million channels lost subscribers.
Such subscriber loss appears to have affected smaller channels 3x more than larger channels in terms of the percentage of subscribers lost. This is particularly painful for emerging channels pushed below the 1,000 subscriber threshold required monetize their content with ads on YouTube.
Which Channels Lost the Most Subscribers?
YouTube Channels that lost the most subscribers on the December 13-14, 2018 spam purge.
Most of this top 10 list shows big exceptions to the averages seen across the 30 million channels Paladin tracks. While it was more typical across YouTube to lose small percentages of total subscribers, most of the channels on this top 10 list took enormous hits.
There were a few channels in the top 10 who had more typical loss behavior though, with established YouTube players 5-Minute Crafts and WWE both losing small fractions of their base, despite losing 93,198 and 89,098 subscribers, respectively.
Overall, it's a good thing to see YouTube policing its ecosystem and prioritizing genuine engagement. Bye bye, bots!

OSU notebook: Posey pulls for Sanzenbacher
With his nine catches, including a school record-tying four for touchdowns, Dane Sanzenbacher shot to the top of the Ohio State receiving charts after the 73-20 win over Eastern Michigan. And DeVier Posey, otherwise considered the Buckeyes' No.1 receiver, was the first to congratulate him.
"There's no part of me that's jealous," Posey said. "I have the utmost respect for Dane."
Posey might be thought of as first in line on the field, "But Dane is the leader in our room," Posey said.
"There's a reason why he's our captain," Posey said. "Dane is a special guy. He's a leader, and he does things in our receivers' room that still impress me today."
"His knowledge of the game is amazing to me (for) a guy his age," said Posey, a junior who is one year behind Sanzenbacher. "That's why he came in and played early.
"No offense to Dane, but you look at him and you wouldn't pick him out as the best receiver on our team. But any time I get to line up with a guy like that when we're out there, he gives me little tips, and he tells me what he sees. It's almost like (receivers coach Darrell) Hazell, he's that trustworthy."
As the Buckeyes prepare for the Big Ten opener at Illinois on Saturday, Sanzenbacher leads the team with 20 catches for 316 yards and five touchdowns, compared with Posey's 15 catches for 242 yards and two TDs. That's after Sanzenbacher tied Bob Grimes in 1952 and Terry Glenn in 1995 for the most TD catches in a game by a Buckeyes player.
"Any time I get to see a guy like that set a record or tie a record, it makes me smile because he deserves it out of anybody in our room," Posey said.
Buckeyes on the mend
Coach Jim Tressel indicated yesterday tight end Jake Stoneburner is questionable for Saturday, but didn't rule him out altogether.
Stoneburner left the Eastern Michigan game in the first quarter with an apparent high ankle sprain. He was replaced by sophomore Reid Fragel, who saw his first extended action.
Tressel said he expects backup cornerback Travis Howard and backup linebacker Dorian Bell, a regular on kick coverage, to return after sitting out Saturday's win, though special-teams performer Nate Oliver, nursing a hamstring pull, might not play against Illinois.
"I think from a health standpoint we are, after four games, in pretty good shape," Tressel said.
Running backs galore
The Buckeyes have five active running backs, led by senior Brandon Saine and junior Daniel Herron, and backed up by sophomore Jordan Hall, redshirt-freshman Jaamal Berry and freshman Carlos Hyde. And that's not counting freshman Roderick Smith, a late addition this season who likely will be redshirted.
Then look at the 2012 recruiting class. It has four members already, and two of them are running backs: juniors Warren Ball of DeSales and Canton GlenOak's Brionte Dunn, who committed to the Buckeyes earlier this week. Both are considered big-time prospects by recruiting analyst Bill Kurelic of Bucknuts.
Although some might think the stable is getting crowded, remember that by the time Ball and Dunn arrive, Saine and Herron will be gone. Plus, of the 17 players who have committed to the 2011 class, none is a running back.
