"Suburban Commando," which opened yesterday at local theaters, finds Shep temporarily marooned on earth while his spacecraft is being recharged. While waiting to return to combat, he rents a room from Charlie Wilcox (Christopher Lloyd), a mild-mannered architect who lives with his wife, Jenny (Shelley Duvall), and two children in a southern California town.
The film's more amusing moments depict Shep's awkward indoctrination into the ways of suburbia. He may possess superhuman strength, but he can't last for a second on a skateboard. The first time he sees a video game being played, he assumes that an intergalactic war is actually in progress and frantically grabs the controls.
Shep's social education is sandwiched between action sequences in which he saves the universe from the monstrous intergalactic dictator General Suitor (William Ball) and then has to re-save it from the general, who has come in pursuit. Along the way, he helps Charlie prove that he is a man and not a mouse. And before returning to space, he even learns how to do somersaults on the skateboard.
Although "Suburban Commando," which was directed by Burt Kennedy and written by Frank Cappello, has little narrative continuity, it is well paced and has an amusingly sour performance by Larry Miller as the kind of boss you love to hate.

"Wow, I absolutely loved reading Buzzworm by Theo Cage. It is filled with enough intrigue to keep you glued to the pages and reading nonstop to the ending you never see coming. Buzzworm is not your everyday CIA spy game novel; it is a very captivating story which combines all the aspects of a thrilling CIA story, but the plot is unique, utterly believable and very thrilling. The story takes you behind the scenes and gives you an in-depth tour into the back office operations of the CIA and the technology that holds together the intelligence community. What fascinated me even more is Theo Cage's transfixing description of the workings of the hacker community."

"PAGE TURNER! Excellent mystery/thriller. Nicely developed characters and tight plot. Hard to put this one down…" LibraryThing Review
"MORE ACTION THAN YOUR TYPICAL MYSTERY. If you're looking for a real ride and not just a story, then you'll enjoy this gritty book." Author of Power Games, Richard Peters
"Awesome Thriller!! Must Read!!" Amazon Review
"Fast paced action and suspense in a read with a lot of horsepower." Amazon Review
Buzzworm was published on February 1st this year. This story was first inspired by a number of stories told to me by a former Mossad agent (not all which I include in Buzzworm, but have also woven into On The Black.) At the time, I was shocked by how much of a national security weapon computer viruses had become. Of course now, with the revelations around the StuxNet virus that attacked Iran's nuclear enrichment program in 2010, and recent infections of U.S. drones, it's quite clear to me that computer viruses could someday (soon) be used as weapons of mass destruction (WMDs).
"What a ride! This book is fast paced from beginning to end. CIA intrigue and high tech computer viruses abound in this very suspenseful thriller. All of the agencies are involved, from Washington vice, Homeland Security, CIA, even the FBI. Even as a reader, I had no idea who to trust until the end of the book. This story spins a complicated web of treachery, deceit, and absolute mayhem that has global consequences. Smooth prose and a compelling plot make Buzzworm a must-read." Goodreads Review Nov 11, 2014
Buzzworm chronicals a systems meltdown at the CIA that begins to quickly spread to other intelligence departments world-wide, effecting operatives and staff at every level. Employee cell phones, their home security systems, even their television sets are being taken over by this ugly new virus now known as Buzzworm.
When people start to die, the CIA decides to look for outside help. An eccentric foreign intrusion expert, Roger Strange, is flown in to help track down the source of the virus. He teams up with an agency hacker known as MED (Mary Ellen Duke), and the two of them begin to unpack the mystery – well aware that Buzzworm is now beginning to target them and their families. The third protagonist in the story is Gregory Hyde, one of Washington D.C.'s most successful and iconic homicide detectives. But he's also the oldest. So despite being Roger and MED's only hope, he hates technology with a passion.
The novel reaches it's explosive conclusion in a deadly race against time in the wilds of Virginia.
Gregory Hyde as well as MED appear again in Satan's Road – and MED will finally get her chance to be a field agent on assignment in Reactor, coming out in 2015.

I just saw one of your books listed on Book Bub….do you have f books about a single character, or are they all "stand alone novels". What is a suggested reading order?
Russell E Smith says:
Mike – Splicer is stand-alone. Buzzworm, Satan's Road, (and the soon to launch Thrift Shop) – feature Washington Homicide detective Greg Hyde – though not sequential, Buzzworm is probably the best place to start.

Howdy, people - hope you are all doing good! We are, everyone now back on deck after some European sojourns for JT and The Coach - refreshed, revived, and full of vim and vigour!!! LOTS of exciting stuff going on at the moment - and some great new releases tickling our tastebuds! For starters - one of the stars of Record Store Day 2015 here at Slow Boat, the tremendous Ms Tami Neilson has a new album, entitled "Don't Be Afraid", on both CD and LP - think; along the lines of her last album, "Dynamite!", with more extremes - balladier ballads, more ripsnortin' ripsnorters. Regardless, it's highly recommended - as is the new album from her Church Tour compadre Delaney Davidson, entitled "Lucky Guy". Some worthy comeback efforts, too, from seasoned campaigners - there is a new New Order album, their first since the departure of bassist Peter Hook, entitled "Music Complete", while post-Britpop likely lads The Libertines get to right their listing ship with their third album (and first in 11 years!), "Anthem For Doomed Youth". There is a new solo effort from Rolling Stones lynchpin Keith Richards, "Crosseyed Heart" (which, we agree, is a dreadful title). There is a second album from the Davis Rawlings Machine - Gillian Welch' s right-hand man; she also features, and it is predictably excellent. There have been LP reissues of long out of print titles from Placebo, New Order (I am on a bit of a jag!), Supergrass, Amy Winehouse, plus we have just topped up with classic releases from the tremendous likes of Massive Attack, The Velvet Underground, The Rolling Stones, Soundgarden, Nirvana - it is NOT, I'm afraid, too soon to start thinking Xmas, people... And - we dug out a couple of extra GOLD VINYL copies of the latest elpee by our homeboys, The Phoenix Foundation, "Give Up Your Dreams" - yes, even with the bonus cassette still available!! Right you are, then - we'll be seein' ya, bless up The Slow Boat Crew X

News brief: "I don't know what more it's going to take" – Federal parties vague on ending oil and gas activities in Nova Scotia's offshore
By RobertDevet - September 17, 2021
KJIPUKTUK (Halifax) – Despite the climate emergency the three main federal parties aren't clearly in favour of ending oil and gas activities in the Nova Scotia offshore by the end of 2022.
That's the disappointing message contained in the parties' responses to a questionnaire sent out by the Offshore Alliance, a coalition of 18 fisheries and environmental groups active in the province.
The Conservative Party didn't respond, and neither the Liberals nor the NDP provided a clear yes when asked about their intentions if elected.
"In government, New Democrats would work with stakeholders to develop policies that would best meet the needs and concerns of all those who share the offshore waters," the NDP states in response.
The Liberal and NDP parties' commitment to end all oil and gas subsidies appears to be a bit more firm, although the two parties' responses are still dressed in ambiguity, particularly around dates.
In contrast, both the Greens and the Communist Party respond to both questions with a clear Yes.
"It was disappointing to see these partial responses from the Liberals and the NDP, quite frankly," says John Davis, a spokesperson for the coalition, and director of the Clean Ocean Action Committee, a fisheries organization representing 9000 vessel owners, captains, crew members and fish plant owners.
"I don't know what more it's going to take. The western part of our country is in flames or in flood or in drought, take your pick. Our oceans are being stressed dramatically, oxygen levels in the Gulf of St. Lawrence are way depressed, mainly because of the amount of carbon that's been entering our oceans from the atmosphere," Davis says.
"Meanwhile, 84% of Nova Scotian said we should be getting off carbon and working toward a green economy. How can our elected officials be so far behind that important public sentiment?"
A questionnaire sent to the provincial parties in August shows the same ambiguity in the response from the provincial Liberals, but the position of the provincial NDP is much more firmly in favour of ending offshore exploration than its federal counterpart.
Climate change is the main driver behind ending subsidies and offshore oil and gas activities, but not the only one, Davis says.
Despite their claims to the contrary, the oil industry does not have any capacity to clean up an oil spill in our waters. The waters are too rough and the tides and currents are too high, says Davis.
"In Nova Scotia we have an unbelievable resource of protein energy in our oceans. The Nova Scotia fishery provides over $2 billion in export value, provides 25,000 jobs and makes substantial contributions to the provincial GDP. To put that resource, which the world really requires, at risk in order to extract more hydrocarbons, which the world does not need, and which endangers our planet just doesn't make sense," Davis says.
Open letter to the new provincial government
Earlier this month the Offshore Alliance sent an open letter to Premier Tim Houston, calling for all oil and gas subsidies to be terminated by the end of 2022, and for a moratorium on all offshore activities while a full public inquiry is being held on the ecological risks and impacts of continued offshore oil and gas development .
The letter also calls for support for affected oil and gas workers.
There are actually many things we don't know about the offshore oil and gas exploration, says Noreen Mabiza, energy coordinator with the Ecology Action Centre, explaining the call for the public enquiry.
"We want to see a cost benefit analysis, considering all the investments that are going into our offshore, and determine if that's really worth the cost in terms of pollution and harm to the environment. It is actually really hard to find any transparency around the numbers," Mabiza says.
We must never forget that the benefits of the clean economy that we're working towards should be shared by all. The people who today make a living in the fossil fuel industry need to be part of the discussion. And when we talk about benefits being shared, Indigenous and Black communities, women, immigrants, and other traditionally underrepresented groups need to be brought into the conversations and be part of the solutions, Mabiza says.

St. Thomas professor possible figure in sex lawsuit, takes leave
Alex Friedrich October 14, 2013, 9:20 AM Oct 14, 2013
It's a story with few details so far, but a popular University of St. Thomas professor, the Rev. Michael Keating, has taken a leave of absence.
Several hours after the the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis made the announcement yesterday, an attorney made his own announcement — that he plans to file a lawsuit in Ramsey County today against Keating, who he says "engaged in sexual contact" with a woman she was a minor.
Keating, 57, is an associate professor of Catholic Studies and manages the St. Thomas' Rome program, among other things.

Last weekend, Pax Christi Metro NYC honored Father Daniel Berrigan, SJ as part of its Peacemaking Through the Arts Winter Benefit. Outside, the weather was icy, but, inside, friends gathered from as far away as Montreal, Canada, to celebrate Dan. I was invited to give a "testimonial" about a man I had known since birth. It was a tough assignment, but I thought I would share it with the Waging Nonviolence community. I did not really talk about all his many accomplishments; those are well documented in many places, including his autobiography, To Dwell in Peace. Here is what I said.
It is hard to sum up a life in a few sentences, especially when the man living that life so boldly and so fully is sitting in the front row and is smiling wryly and with tolerance. This assignment makes me think about retirement—it brings up a lot of iconic images, doesn't it? You know; the gold watch for years of dedicated service, the gilded plaque etched with platitudes, the break room or Elk Lodge or church hall party. And then the life afterwards: golf, fishing, carnival cruises, and a fun and stimulating hobby like carving duck decoys or learning French.
Some people never retire. Dan Berrigan has never retired. And we are here to say thank you and thank God for that.
Everywhere I go I meet people who express to me overwhelming love and admiration for my uncle. They mention his poetry, his prose, his bold activism… but most of all they talk about his time. Many of you know this and have experienced the gift of my uncle's time and attention.
Uncle Dan, you spend so much time with people. And I know the delight you take in their accomplishments. You meet their sorrows and disappointments with empathy and compassion. You give gentle advice without judgment or hector. Your advice has literally shaped the lives—and for the better—of so many people.
Uncle Dan, for so many people, you are a critical link, a life link to a church that has disappointed and alienated so many. An institution that has forgotten or dismissed the man we are taught to follow, the man who prayed and thought and acted on his feet and with his friends, who made a poem out of his life and always had time for children, for women, for the sick and the disabled, for the disenfranchised, for the castigated and the cast-asides. You keep the gospels alive in a cynical time. You bring us back to Jesus, to that man. And you bring the church out of the darkness and the pomp, you free our brother Jesus from its clutches and you bring the sacraments out to us: to the soup kitchen, the picket line, the occupied block, the AIDS clinic, you bring the church to where people are.
I revel—in a slightly awkward sort of way—at these encounters, basking in the refracted glory of my Uncle Dan, agreeing wholeheartedly with how awesome he is and recalling all of our own far-reaching, hilarious, profound and life-altering discussions.
"Well, we solved it all, haven't we?" he'll sum up. Or, sometimes, "Come on, we've been good long enough," he'll quip, and we pour a drink.
I stand here on behalf of my family—but really on behalf of all these people who celebrate you Dan—far too many to be in this room. And on behalf of all of them, I say: thank you for leading, thank you for listening, thank you for loving.
I would love to give you a gold watch and a holiday cruise to honor your ongoing non-retirement. But instead, I will share the gift of my own poetry. Yep, you heard it here first: Dan Berrigan is not the only Berrigan kissed by Calliope.
So please, no thoughts of retiring.
We are all your daughters and son.
That's it. After Liz McAlister (my mom) and Bishop Tom Gumbleton both spoke, Uncle Dan got up and read a real poem. He wrote it soon after September 11, 2001. I had never heard it before. Far cry from limerick, but good (nonetheless).
Thank you! Your vivid descriptions make us feel like we were there.
AND we mustn't forget the other seven!
This is not a comment, but question. I have a woodcut, done by an artist friend in 1966, of Father Berrigan's face. We were part of a young adult activist group in Chicago. I would like to send this to him or his family. The fact that she did this in 1966 is a tribute to his impact at that time. Please email me and let me know where I can send it. The one I have (a little spotted with age) is numbered 1 of 10.
Not relevant to the post but I do not know how to reach you.

NHRC Receives Over 400 Sexual, Gender-Based Violence Reports In 11 Months
The Bauchi State office of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has revealed that it received no fewer than 814 human rights complaints between January and November this year, out of which over 400 were on sexual and gender based violence.
The State Coordinator of the Commission, Barrister Dala Yachit, made the revelation at a one-day public lecture on "ICT as an instrument for enhancing national security and economic recovery".
The lecture, organised by Youth and Civil Society Coalition for Development (YCSCD) in collaboration with the National Information Technology Agency, was held on Monday at for North-East states.
Responding to a comment made by the representative of the Bauchi State Commissioner of Police, Yachit said that crimes had to be fought within the ambits of the law, noting that the Police Act and the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA), 2015 were there to guide the police in the discharge of their work.
"In fighting crime, you must do that within the law. The (National) Human Rights Commission is not stopping the police from carrying out her lawful activities but you must do it in line with the law, what the Police Act says you can do and what you can't do and what the Administration of Criminal Justice Act says.
"Even arrests, how do you arrest? You must tell a person why you are arresting him. You don't handcuff, you don't subject the person to inhuman treatment. Arrest someone in line with the law and treat him with dignity," Yachit, who was the chairperson on the occasion, said.
The NHRC State Coordinator asserted that the police does not have to forcefully elicit information from a suspect, submitting that, "that information you want, if the law says don't forcefully check someone's phone and you do that, I can assure you, when you go to court, that evidence will be thrown out of the court because you did not access that document through the legal means."
She informed that through the commission's cordial working relationship, awareness and sensitisation, complaints against police personnel in the state had gradually reduced.
"For example, when we came in 2019, most people did not know much about human rights in Bauchi, we started in February and by the end of that year, we had just 72 complaints and out of those 72 complaints, over 50 were against police officers.
"Last year, it was the same thing, but because of the sensitisation and awareness to the people, as of Thursday last week, we had 814 human rights complaints, just in Bauchi and out of this, over 400 were on sexual and gender based violence.
"So, you can see the reduction of complaints against police officers and it is because of our working relationship and the awareness and sensitisation," she said.
Yachit declared that every aspect of human life had to do with human rights, adding that ICT plays a vital role in human rights as it could not be removed from human rights.
She said "ICT opens doors and creates avenues for a lot of information. It is through ICT that we get to know what is going on regarding human rights.
"You can beam the searchlight on human rights abuses, you can get in touch with victims of human rights abuses. So, you can't remove ICT from human rights."
Speaking earlier, the National President of the group, Aminu Aminu in


I have been a mother for over 14 years now, and I have lots of Mother's Day memories, among all the many other wonderful memories I have with my family. There is certainly more to life than hairstyles! For those of you who celebrate Mother's Day today, don't forget to give her a big hug and tell her how much you love her and how much she has meant to you. For those of you who live a distance from your mother, please give her a quick phone call to tell her the same!
For those who are not yet mothers for health or other reasons, we also celebrate this day for all womanhood. It isn't just about being a mother, because the impact we have as women on our significant others, friends, and children around us, is not only important… but great!
Lastly, for those of you whose mothers have passed on from this life, please take a moment to reflect on the marvelous impact she was in raising such a wonderful young lady, and thank her in your own way.

Zur Kaumuskulatur werden jene Muskelpaare des Kopfes zusammengefasst, die den Unterkiefer in Richtung Oberkiefer bewegen und damit für den Kieferschluss (Okklusion) sorgen, das Zubeißen und das Zermahlen der Nahrung ermöglichen (einschließlich seitwärts gerichteter Gleitbewegungen).

Beim Menschen und den übrigen Säugetieren besteht sie aus vier, jeweils paarig angelegten Muskeln:

 Musculus masseter ("Kaumuskel", für den Kieferschluss)
 Musculus temporalis ("Schläfenmuskel", für den Kieferschluss sowie Zurückziehen des Unterkiefers)
 Musculus pterygoideus medialis ("innerer Flügelmuskel", für den Kieferschluss)
 Musculus pterygoideus lateralis ("äußerer Flügelmuskel", zum Öffnen des Kiefers, Vorschieben des Unterkiefers sowie für Mahlgleitbewegungen von rechts nach links bzw. umgekehrt)

Entwicklungsgeschichtlich stammt die Kaumuskulatur vom ersten Kiemenbogen ab. Daher erfolgt die Innervation der Kaumuskeln durch Äste des ersten Kiemenbogennervs, des Nervus mandibularis, einem Ast des Nervus trigeminus (Hirnnerv V). Aufgrund der speziellen embryologischen Herkunft besitzen die Kaumuskeln eine spezifische Isoform des Myosins, der entsprechende Muskelfasertyp wird als Typ 2M bezeichnet.

Ein tonischer Krampf der Kaumuskulatur wird als Trismus bezeichnet. Die Totenstarre (Rigor mortis) der Skelettmuskulatur, eines der sicheren Todeszeichen, beginnt an der Kaumuskulatur.

Kaumuskulatur und Kiefergelenk werden als funktionelle Einheit betrachtet, Beschwerden in diesem Bereich sind mit einer Unzahl von Namensgebungen bedacht. Der Begriff "temporomandibuläre Störungen" hat – zumindest im englischsprachigen Raum als temporomandibular disorder – die größte Akzeptanz gefunden. Im deutschsprachigen Raum werden Bezeichnungen wie Kraniomandibuläre Dysfunktion oder Myoarthropathien des Kausystems sowie viele andere mehr verwendet. Bei Haushunden kann eine Autoimmunerkrankung gegen das spezifische Myosin auftreten, die als Kaumuskelmyositis bezeichnet wird.

After the Coup, China Goes After Burma's Mining Industry
China, along with Russia, has responded positively to what they call a "change of cabinet" in Burma, while the international community vehemently rejects the attack on the nascent democracy.
The military-led coup in Burma has unleashed a wave of attacks against citizens protesting for freedom in the country. The military has deployed armed vehicles against protesters, along with arrests of civilians and members of the press, as well as massive disruptions to the internet and media, according to reports by foreign diplomats in Burma's capital Yangon.
"We call on security forces to refrain from violence against demonstrators and civilians, who are protesting the overthrow of their legitimate government." Joint statement from Ambassadors to #Myanmar ⬇ pic.twitter.com/GL0htkbR8P
— UK in Myanmar 🇬🇧 (@ukinmyanmar) February 14, 2021
Burma is a country rich in gemstone mines, gas and geographically grants economic and military benefits, mainly to China. Mining is 70% dependent on Chinese traders, according to research.
TIME magazine published a report on the conditions in which workers are exploited for the extraction of jade and diamonds, whose benefits are mainly obtained by Chinese businesspeople, since the area is forbidden to other foreigners.
"Everyone knows the Chinese control almost all jade mines in Burma." (Efe)
Chinese hegemony diminished from 2015, when the democratic government articulated an opening that allowed businessmen from Singapore, Japan, South Korea and Thailand to also invest in Burma. It also provided an opportunity for the United States to introduce international human rights observers.
China helps the Burmese army to control protests
The media reported that Chinese "information technology experts and hardware equipment arrived in Burma at the request of the military government." These firewall equipment were recently sent to network and telecommunications operators to be operational by mid-February.
The military coup in Burma increases Chinese control, according to the press (Efe)
Burma is a rich source of natural resources such as timber, jade and natural gas for China. It also offers access to the ocean from the southwest, something Beijing has sought to develop through the China-Burma Economic Corridor, which links Burma's Yunnan province with the Bay of Bengal.
While the army is trying not to rely entirely on China, according to the press it has established arms trade ties with Moscow, yet the CCP was reported to be "helping the Burma Army build a cyber firewall," causing citizens to demonstrate in front of the Chinese Embassy after the coup.
Chinese investment in Burma
China and Burma became closer during the civilian government of Aung San Suu Kyi's party, due to the Belt and Road plan. This civilian leader had been questioned for the persecution of Muslims in Burma and therefore decided to expand her ties with the Chinese Communist regime.
Aung San Suu Kyi and Xi Jinping sealed the deal to include Burma in China's Belt and Road plan. (Efe)
Beijing's investments "account for 25% of total foreign investments." The CCP has "carefully cultivated its ties" with both the civilian government of Aung San Suu Kyi and the military, making the 2021 coup reminiscent of Burma's times of international isolation.
Sanctions on Yangon for its military dictatorships and human rights violations against workers in the mines have made China a key partner, as it is the gateway to trade in gemstones extracted from the Asian country's mines, according to TIME.
However, under Suu Kyi's democratic-led government, the economy expanded its ties with the West, resulting in a 26% decrease in debt to China. In addition, "trade with Western countries increased and the trade deficit with China narrowed".
The U.S. against the coup
China blocked a United Nations (UN) Security Council statement condemning the military coup in Burma and has urged the international community not to impose measures against the regime.
However, the United States approved new sanctions against those responsible for the military coup in Burma.
"We are also going to impose strong export controls. We are freezing American assets that benefit the Burmese government, while maintaining our support for health care, civil society groups and other areas that directly benefit the people of Burma," President Joe Biden said.
Sanctions imposed by Western countries on Burma gave an advantage to China, which became for decades the only economy negotiating with the Yangon regime.
The coup in Burma affects the search for a free and open Indo-Pacific region led by the United States, and increases tensions on account of China's influence on other countries, such as Thailand, Hong Kong or the Philippines.
