Splatter is a new three-part mini-series directed by Joe Dante and produced by Roger Corman, starting on the Horror Channel Friday 24 September at 22:55. Episode one will have its UK TV premiere on that date, after which the audience will vote on which character should be killed in the next episode (via the Horror Channel website). This means that the versions of episodes two and three broadcast in the UK may turn out to be completely different from those shown previously on American TV. To understand the mechanics of interactive storytelling, Alex Fitch spoke to director Joe Dante about the series.
Joe Dante: True! Home-made, I think is the phrase!
Was that something that attracted you to this project, working with Roger Corman again, doing something that was a tongue-in-cheek love letter to exploitation?
He said: 'The way it would work is that you shoot the first episode and you run it. Then you take the votes the night it runs, you write the next episode based on the votes, you shoot it and premiere it a week later. You do it again for the next episode.' And I said, 'Roger, there's a problem with that!', which is that you have to keep all these people on retainer for the whole period and you have to shoot, edit, score, transfer and put the thing up in a record amount of time. I think this went back to his days when he used to make movies in two and a half days; he used to make them in that time, but he didn't edit them in two and a half days!
So I said: 'Roger, I think what would be more prudent would be to shoot all the possibilities of murders and choose to air the one that the audience would vote for.' That way you have a whole series that you can run in various places in various times and the audience would have the luxury of choosing different people to die and it would all be covered. He realised that would probably be a better idea, so that's the way we did it, but it was still done in record time!
This series was first aired in America last year, which led to voting from an audience in one certain direction, but now it's being shown in the UK.
We made a deal with a company called Netflix, which sends rental DVDs through the post, and they wanted to get into video streaming, to show people that they could show films directly via the internet, without having to post films in boxes back and forth. Ours was their test case to prove that they could stream material successfully to people's computers, and so they were partners on the series, but when time came to pick up the entire series for redistribution beyond its first screening, they only wanted the three episodes that appeared on their site, the ones the audience voted for – we owned the rights to the rest of them. I think if you go to the Netflix site, you can still see the three episodes that were run, but of course the series is designed so that those three episodes wouldn't always be the same three that were run if it was aired again.
The British audience may vote in an entirely different way to the American audience, so this new run on the Horror Channel may actually be the premiere of one or two of the episodes.
Totally! I think any new audience is probably going to vote differently because the idea was to fill the programme with unlikable people! It's a rock star's funeral and all the mourners are hangers-on and people who basically used him. He's now come back from the dead and he's going to get revenge on all of them. It's based on the idea: 'which characters do the audience want to see die?', which I guess is a negative way to approach it if you're an actor, but it's sort of a triumph if you get picked, because it proves that you managed to be more odious than the person next to you!
Certainly in the current climate of Z-list celebrity culture and reality TV, it's all very well that someone gets booted out of the Big Brother house or dumped into a tank full of snakes in the outback, but actually I think a lot of the audience would like to see these characters on TV meet a grisly demise!
How involved were you in the casting of the series? Corey Feldman, for example, who actually is a star of reality TV, plays the lead role of the zombie rock star and seems very much cast against type. I didn't recognise him until I saw the credits.
I hadn't worked with him since The 'Burbs (1989), which was a while ago. He's obviously gone through a lot of changes, he's pretty much a completely different person, but he was very eager. He loves make-up, he loves horror and he's got his own band, so it was great to get him! There wasn't a lot of money involved, so most of the rest of the cast did it just for the fun of doing it.
Also, I imagine the opportunity to work with you and Roger Corman was very attractive.
I would guess that would put a slight stamp of legitimacy on it! (laughs) But these webisodes are a new thing – there are a lot of these going on right now and it's an interesting new form of storytelling. I think the webisode idea in itself is going to survive, but the idea of interactive storytelling has its limits. If the audience gets to choose what happens, it becomes very difficult to have a point to the story. You can imagine that if Midnight Cowboy had been interactive, the audience would have voted for them to strike out earlier on and move to Beverly Hills!
Also, many webisode serials I've seen online have been very much tied in to TV shows. There was a Battlestar Galactica webisode, but the main series didn't actually reflect its plotline, in which a major character was revealed to be bisexual, so that can delegitimise the new format.
What were your considerations shooting something that might be primarily seen online? Did it affect the way that you lit and shot it, or did you just treat it like any other filmic project?
You couldn't shoot it just like any other film, as it has its own unique needs. For example, in the script, there are several different versions of each scene, depending on who is currently still alive! When you shoot the scenes, you have to set them up where you can move one actor out and move another actor in and have them say the lines in that version of the script. So it becomes a kind of assembly line of changing actors. You shoot a master shot and then you shoot all three or five versions of however many characters there are. When you do the close-ups, the cast always have to be on call because even if they've been killed off, they have to survive in at least one version.
It frankly can get a little wearying – you can get very easily confused as a director as to where you are in any given scene. When the writer, Richard C Matheson, wrote the original story, he didn't account for every single possibility of transitions depending on where people were and whether they were existing or not… So it was quite a jigsaw puzzle to edit. It was a solvable problem, but it was not like any other film I've ever made, and I don't think I've ever made a film as fast as this one! Even my first picture, which was made in 10 days, was a breeze compared to this, because it was so labour intensive.
I suppose to allow for all the possibilities in the interactive plot, you must have shot the equivalent of seven episodes in total?
Actually 10! There are 10 episodes in all… The first episode is always the same, and then the others vary depending on the audience vote. There are more versions again of the last episode than the middle. The exact details escape me, because I probably never quite understood them anyway!
As there are many episodes that might never be seen when the series is showed in different territories, could you eventually consider a DVD or Blu-ray release that would include every episode?
Joe Dante is also presenting a Director's Night on the Horror Channel on 25th November where he'll be introducing his selection of movies including Splatter, Bay of Blood and The Bird with the Crystal Plumage.

1-3 ARB Apaches bring Viper strike to Allied Spirit IV
Posted by Public Affairs Office × February 5, 2016

(U.S. Army photo by Spc. Antonio Ramirez, 12th CAB)
Story by Capt. Jaymon Bell, 12th Combat Aviation Brigade
HOHENFELS, Germany (Jan. 29, 2016) – An aviation task force made up of elements from 1st Battalion, 3rd Aviation Regiment, 12th Combat Aviation Brigade, from U.S. Army Garrison Ansbach, and 3rd Battalion, 227th Aviation Regiment, 1st Air Cavalry Brigade, from Fort Hood, Texas, provided attack, assault and medical evacuation support to exercise Allied Spirit, here, Jan. 10 through Feb. 5.
The regionally allocated aviation forces from 3rd Bn., 227th Avn. Regt., or "Task Force Spearhead," provided the mission command element for the exercise. From their tactical operations center they planned and executed direct attack missions with the AH-64's, air assault and artillery gun raids with the UH-60's, and medical evacuations with the HH-60's.
TF Spearhead also provided ground support in the form of forward air refueling points (FARP) and downed aircraft recovery teams (DART).
The Vipers from 1st Bn., 3rd Avn. Regt honed their unified land operation skill set throughout the exercise. It was a clear objective of the battalion to integrate aviation assets with indirect fire, joint attack teams and to use attack aviation as a stand-alone maneuver element.
One such mission involved an AH-64 pilot observing and directing fires for an Air Force A-10 Thunderbolt II pilot. This would normally go through a joint air attack team but the JMRTC staff acted as the approving authority and higher headquarters to make this training scenario possible.
A typical U.S. brigade has a Brigade Aviation Officer to de-conflict airspace and coordinate aviation for massing fires on the objective. However, the Italian Army is not staffed with aviation assets so 3rd Bn., 227th Avn. Regt., sent two lieutenants to the "Garibaldi" Brigade headquarters to be liaison officers.
"We helped the brigade staff mass fires on the objective by keeping the Apache's on station during artillery fire," said 1st Lt. JonMichael Renzi, an AH-64 pilot from 1st Bn., 3rd Avn. Regt. "It was a huge learning experience for us and the Italian staff."
Allied Spirit IV is a multinational exercise between the United States, Canada, Germany, Italy, Latvia, and Slovenia, held at the Joint Multinational Readiness Center, Hohenfels, Germany from Jan. 10 through Feb. 5, 2016.

Las Vegas is a city that was designed for the short break getaway. No one plans a two-week holiday in Las Vegas. The overriding idea at work here is to get in, hopefully not lose all your money and get back to your regular life with a pocketful of good memories.
In the meantime, you can fill every hour of the day and night with gambling, shopping, world-class shows and lounging by the pool. The dining scene in Vegas is extraordinary, so save some cash to spoil yourself at least once. The same holds true of classy bars and clubs like the Bank, PURE or Tabu.
Efficient use of your time is maximised in Vegas because few venues actually close. This allows visitors on a short weekend getaway to get the most out of their trip. The moment your feet hit the flashing pavement of the Strip, you can be off and running regardless of the hour. The only real downside to quick Las Vegas breaks is the distance from the UK and the time involved getting here.
Direct flights from the UK to Vegas are available on Virgin Atlantic and British Airways, but still take around 11 hours. There's no faster way to get to the casinos here. The alternative of a cheaper, indirect flight will consume at least 17 hours of travel time, not to mention the energy involved in changing planes and hanging around airport terminals.
That being said, if you put yourself in the right frame of mind, Las Vegas is the perfect destination to arrange a short break. Two and three-night packages are standard fare at all of the resorts along the Strip, where surprisingly cheap room rates along with goodies such as free tickets to shows or discounts at the resort's facilities are often available. These room-only deals can be found online directly from the resort or you can search for a package that includes air travel and hotel.
There's no shortage of things to see and do in Las Vegas. The only limitations are your budget and time. Most people plan to do at least a little gambling, and casinos are available everywhere you turn. Since the casinos are open 24 hours, you can easily fit in an hour of slots or some time at the tables in between other attractions.
During the day, there are loads of things to see right on the Strip. From museums like Madam Tussauds House of Wax to the Dolphin Habitat show at the Mirage, the options range from wildlife to thrill rides. Ride the roller coaster at New York New York or one of the adrenalin pumpers at the Stratosphere. These attractions all cost money to enjoy so plan accordingly.
Plenty of freebies are on hand as well, if you have a bad night in the casino. Simply cruising around the Strip is a hoot. All of the resorts are open to the public, so make time to explore the opulence of the Bellagio or the whimsy of Excalibur. Of course, perhaps the best thing to do during the day is to simply spread out by your hotel pool and soak in the desert sun.
After dark is when you can pick a show or two to enjoy. Tickets don't come cheap, but the quality is top-flight. Whether it's the strange Blue Man Group, the illusions of Criss Angel or a concert by your favourite singer, there is at least a dozen or more tempting performances every night of the year.
Dining is another highlight of an evening in Vegas. The cuisine here is outstanding by any standard and there are dozens of exciting restaurants to choose from. You can guarantee the hottest spots will be booked weeks in advance so pick a couple and make your reservations.

Instead of taking a vow to not have a single piece of Halloween candy this year (let's be realistic here), I have some strategies to get you through the Halloween season without bingeing on those delicious Reese Peanut butter Cups. It is possible to throughly enjoy candy without binge eating. If you are currently suffering from binge eating disorder or are in recovery, Halloween can be a very triggering time. It can bring up a lot of anxiety and eating disorder thoughts when you are surrounded by candy.
It's totally normal to have Halloween candy to celebrate the holiday, I need to stop being so hard on myself. This is my Eating Disorder talking, not my Healthy Self.
To help you have an enjoyable Halloween I have 3 tips that will help prevent a binge from occurring.
1. Focus on Not Restricting: If you in the trenches of an eating disorder this can take weeks, months or years to work through, which is why working with a professional is so important to your health and wellbeing in recovery. Restriction leads to binge eating, plain and simple. So the fastest way to stop binge eating is to make sure you are having three nourishing, satisfying meals with snacks in between. If you are full and satisfied come Halloween night you are less likely to binge eat on Halloween candy.
2. Be Mindful:When you eat Halloween candy be mindful of how it tastes, eat it slowly and be aware of the conversation in your head as you eat. If you are criticizing yourself while eating it, you're restricting yourself emotionally (remember we want to stop restricting food on all levels, include emotionally). Eat the candy that you actually want to eat. As simple as it sounds, it helps you to tune into your body. Tune in with your fullness cues as well. Remember to actually taste it (it's delicious, don't miss out on that!). Be compassionate and celebratory for allowing yourself to enjoy the candy. Practice self-compassion and go easy on yourself. Halloween can be a tough time when you struggle with binge eating, and acknowledging this helps soften you inner voice.
3. Learn to Ride the Wave: The urge to binge can feel overwhelming and all encompassing. For most people the urge to binge only lasts 20-30 minutes and comes in a wave, with a slow rise to a peak that then starts to dissipate. Understanding the wave helps you learn how to ride it out. Be aware of the urge to binge, accept the urge and let yourself ride it out for 20 minutes. Eventually, it passes. Some of my clients have learned to go in another room in the house when the urge comes up, away from the kitchen. Or taking a hot shower to ride the wave. Have a plan of what you're going to do when that urge arises.
Most importantly, find a therapist who specializes in eating disorders and can help you overcome binge eating. Recovery takes time and has many ups and downs along the way. There's a lot to learn about the symptoms you've been experiencing and working through the underlying issues, such as anxiety or trauma. You'll want a professional that you trust in your corner to guide you along the way.
About Danielle Swimm, LCPC: Danielle is a therapist in Annapolis, MD. Her areas of concentration are binge eating disorder, anxiety, and body image improvement for adults and adolescents. She also works with eating disorders and mind-body health. She enjoys helping others improve their relationship with food and their body.

GREEN LANTERN Reboot Officially Titled GREEN LANTERN CORPS
by Adam Chitwood July 11, 2015
As the Warner Bros. presentation began in Hall H at Comic-Con this morning, the studio took an opportunity to tout its DC Comics Universe. A video played on the screens surrounding the audience that began with images of the various comics before touting the films that WB has scheduled coming up with concept art and logos:
Justice League 1 & 2
Green Lantern Corps.
While it was neat to get brief glimpses at concept art of Ezra Miller as The Flash (the film very much looks to be WB/DC's "fun" superhero movie), the biggest news to come out of this video was that the Green Lantern reboot expected in 2020 will indeed be titled Green Lantern Corps.
Image via Warner Bros.
For those unfamiliar with the comics, the title refers to the fictional military/police force made up of the various Green Lanterns across the universe, with two Green Lanterns assigned to each sector. This means that the new Green Lantern could be a superhero spin on a "buddy cop" film, and it jibes with recent casting rumors that have seen both Chris Pine and Tyrese Gibson in the mix for the role of Green Lantern—though those are still just rumors for now, and Warner Bros. didn't use today's Comic-Con panel as an opportunity to shed any light on where the casting of the film stands.
But we could hear soon. Zack Snyder is expected to start shooting the first Justice League movie next year for release in 2017, and he'll presumably need a Green Lantern. Or it's possible that character won't arrive until Justice League Part Two. Either way, whenever the eventual Green Lantern movie does arrive, don't expect a traditional one-man superhero pic. Green Lantern Corps. is imminent.

Roaring Fork schools set guidelines for staff housing
Local | April 11, 2017
John Stroud
jstroud@postindependent.com
Homes acquired by the Roaring Fork School District for its teacher housing program are currently under construction at the Ironbridge development south of Glenwood Springs.
Provided |
Roaring Fork Schools officials have finalized the policies and procedures that will guide the school district's new teacher housing program that was approved by voters as part of a $122 million bond issue in 2015.
The same bond package that is resulting in the brand new Riverview elementary/middle school south of Glenwood Springs, a new addition and remodel at Glenwood Springs Elementary School, a new bus barn at El Jebel and facility upgrades across the district, also included $5 million each in Glenwood, Carbondale and Basalt to purchase or build rental units for teachers and staff.
This summer, six two- and three-bedroom units at the Ironbridge development south of Glenwood Springs, and 17 one-, two- and three-bedroom units at the Willits development in Basalt will be available for qualified employees to move into for the 2017-18 school year.
Deals are being finalized for another dozen or so units at Cardiff Mesa in Glenwood, and planning is underway for a 16- to 20-unit development on district-owned land on Third Street in Carbondale.
To be eligible to enter a lottery for one of the units, a teacher or staff member must work at least 30 hours a week for the district. If there is not enough interest among full-time employees, the units would be made available to part-time employees, Jeff Gatlin, chief operating officer for the school district, explained.
Once built out, 80 percent of the units are to be reserved for teachers and other certified employees, and the remainder will be available for classified (support) staff, according to the guidelines adopted by the school board last week. However, that is flexible depending on the number of qualified applicants from each employee pool.
Under the rules, monthly rents will be capped at 26 to 30 percent household income, whether that's a teacher and another adult wage earner who doesn't work for the district, or groups of district employees banding together as roommates.
Rather than the guidelines being based on the area median income (AMI), as many affordable housing programs do, the teacher housing program will establish rents based on the median income for district employees, Gatlin also explained.
Currently, that stands at $50,275 per year for certified staff, and $29,841 for classified staff. For the sake of comparison, the broader AMI in Garfield County for a family of four is around $68,000.
One of the challenges of using the different AMI models is that the school district would have to abide by multiple rules and regulations depending on the county or municipal jurisdiction, Gatlin said.
"We needed a more consistent model, so we decided take that same approach and form our own median income," he said. "That way, we were able to say, this is our norm, and establish a formula around that."
The district also ran the model by housing experts in Garfield and Pitkin counties, who validated the approach, Gatlin said.
Under the program, those making 60 percent of the district median income ($30,165) would pay $654 per month for a one-bedroom unit, $784 for a two-bedroom and $902 for three bedrooms.
For those earning 80 percent of the median, rents would range from $905 to $1,249 per month, depending on unit size, and at 100 percent the range would be from $1,173 to $1,619.
Where it tends to get interesting is for those earning more than the median income. At 120 percent of the median ($60,330 per year), rents range from $1,458 to $1,750, and at 140 percent ($70,385), rent caps actually start to exceed current market rates.
"We did have some discussion around that, and if your household income is pushing into those categories you really should be moving toward the free market," Gatlin said. "We anticipate that most of our interest will be in those [60 to 80 percent of median] categories."
Applicants will be required to provide proof of income based on income tax returns, not just their W-2 from the school district. Nondistrict employees, such as spouses or adult children who are contributing to the household income, must provide two years worth of tax returns.
Points will also be awarded to applicants based on certain criteria such as the number of dependents, with special considerations for single parents.
"That was one thing the board felt needed to be included," Gatlin said.
The housing policy will also be reviewed annually and changes made as deemed necessary, he said, although tenants already occupying a unit will not have to comply with any rules changes until their lease comes up. A tenant who remains with the district will be allowed to remain in a unit for up to five years.
"We've been pretty up front that we know these guidelines will likely morph over time," Gatlin said. "We do anticipate a high amount of interest, and we expect to have a waiting list."

Maritime students send special SOS to upcoming UN Ocean Conference
These future maritime leaders, studying at the Arab Academy for Science, Technology & Maritime Transport, based in the Egyptian coastal city of Alexandria, also used two powerful symbols in their video: an anchor, immediately recognizable in any language, and Semaphore, another universal way to communicate on the high seas, using flags.
Spelling it out
Arms moving in sharp patterns, the students spell, with flags, the same urgent text they form with their bodies as seen from above.
The message is not a matter of theory for these future seafarers; it is central to their personal journeys starting at an institution committed to helping the world realize the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) especially on climate action (Goal 13) and life below water (Goal 14).
Hailing from Egypt, Djibouti, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Libya and Mauritania, the students created their video message to the UN Ocean Conference, which will put the issue at the top of the international agenda when it convenes in Lisbon from 27 June to 1 July.
'Blue world'
"We live in a blue world," explains Dr. Kareem Mahmoud Tonbol, an Associate Professor of Physical Oceanography and Climatology and Vice Dean for Postgraduate Studies and Scientific Research, pointing out that oceans and seas cover more than 70 per cent of the Earth's surface.
"Oceans are the heart and lungs of our planet, supplying most of the oxygen we breathe," says Dr. Tonbol, who also serves as Head of Meteorology and the Hydrographic Survey Programme and organized the initiative to create a video in response to a request from the UN's Department of Global Communications.
Concern for the future
He explains that the hundreds of students who contributed to the video, were motivated to send their nautical SOS, out of concern for humanity's future.
"Oceans are the heart and lungs of our planet, supplying most of the oxygen we breathe," he says. "They are also a vital element of the ecosystem and a key source of food and medicine."
According to Dr. Tonbol, more than three billion people worldwide rely on marine and coastal biodiversity to survive, while oceans absorb over 30 per cent of carbon dioxide created by humans, helping mitigate the effects of warming on the planet.
"Oceans also sustain the world's marine and coastal resources and industries," he points out. "In every way, we are directly related to our seas."
Oceans are the heart and lungs of our planet – Kareem Mahmoud Tonbol
It took a week of preparations, a team of video experts, and the choreographing of scores of students in maritime uniforms, but the Academy felt the investment was worth sending a strong signal from their Abu-Qir campus to the Conference.
"Our message is to mobilize and unify the world's efforts to support the sustainable management of the world's oceans by fostering a global movement of citizens to protect ocean resources and the marine environment," says Dr. Tonbol.
Their decision to send a video message to the United Nations is consistent with the Academy's longstanding cooperation with the world organization.
And the Academy has incorporated into its strategic plan a commitment "to fulfilling its social responsibility and aligning itself to the SDGs, significantly increasing the extent to which its research and teaching support the aim of achieving a healthy and sustainable planet."
For Dr. Tonbol, this is more than a question of plans on paper; it is a legacy to bequeath to future generations. "Our role is to shape future leaders by investing in young minds as we embark upon the intergenerational transition to help them join the sustainable development revolution and create a momentum to deliver the SDGs," he says.
"Sustainable development is very much about the business of ensuring that our children and future generations inherit an earth that is no worse off than the one we have inherited, so we dedicate our research to advancing innovative solutions for the interest of humanity."


Most of the hives in the apiary are unique works of a local folk artist - Zdzisław Kościelniak of Raba Niżna. The apiary has dozens of hives, each hand-carved. Most of them represent peculiarities of still life, animals or humans. Some of the hives in the apiary are more than 100 years old. Besides honey, you can buy there a very interesting souvenir in the form of a small hive made from braided straw.

J Balvin is happy to see his friend and colleague Bad Bunny succeed. The Colombian reggaeton singer shared a post on Instagram celebrating their friendship and the success of the Puerto Rican trap star. "Benito Martínez, I remember how before you debuted in music, I was supposedly the only weird, crazy and strange one because I always do what my heart tells me," J Balvin joked. "I am thankful to life that another crazy one has arrived and has given entertainment a breath of fresh air, and seeing you grow fills me with so much pride! Difficult paths? I know, but now you are at your best moment and that's why I celebrate your life and career. Happy birthday!"
J Balvin, Bad Bunny
Bad Bunny, who turned 26 on Tuesday, reacted to the post, commenting: "Thanks for everything! You know you are very special to me. Thank you, thank you." The artists have collaborated on hit tracks like "Si Tu Novio Te Deja Sola" and recorded last year's album Oasis together. They have also shared the stage together various times and also worked with Cardi B on the crossover anthem "I Like It." And who could forget their kick-ass Super Bowl halftime performance with Jennifer Lopez and Shakira?
"If I wanted to front I couldn't stand myself," Bad Bunny joked on Instagram about the success of his new album YHLQMDLG, which debuted at number two on the Billboard 200. "My vision goes beyond numbers," El Conejo Malo reflected. "That's why they come on their own. Thanks to all of those people who believed in me and still believe."

Baker signals support for 'red flag' gun bill
Cloudy skies early, then partly cloudy this afternoon. High 46F. Winds WSW at 10 to 20 mph..
Mainly cloudy. Low around 30F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph.
By Katie Lannan State House News Service
BOSTON – Gov. Charlie Baker is "conceptually in favor" of the extreme risk protection order bill that passed the Senate last week and could soon be making its way to his desk.
The Republican governor, asked during a WBUR interview on Friday if he'd sign the bill (H 4539), didn't directly answer but indicated support for the idea behind the so-called "red flag" legislation that would allow family or household members to petition the courts for the temporary removal of guns from someone deemed dangerous.
"I have said since this debate began that we are conceptually in favor of this concept and this notion and this sort of a law, and I think it actually builds on in many ways some of the the more important and successful elements of the gun laws we have in Massachusetts already," Baker said.
"The bill the Senate passed Thursday and the version House passed in May are largely similar, with supporters pointing to different approaches to regulating stun guns as the main divergence between the two branches. Rep. Marjorie Decker, the bill's lead House sponsor, said last week she expected the differences to be "easily worked out."
Baker suggested that bills could be reconciled quickly and without the formal appointment of a conference committee.
"There are some differences between the two bills. I fully expect they'll work those out," he said.
"The House and the Senate have talked about trying to get that done without naming a conference committee, which is usually code for we're going to try to move this in a relatively quick period of time, and as I said at the beginning, we've already said conceptually that we support this type of thing."

Car clue as cops hunt Sarah suspect
Written By Unknown on Senin, 19 November 2012 | 20.01
Facebook friends of missing Victorian Sarah Cafferkey are hoping the body of a woman found is not hers.
A MAN considered a person of interest in the murder of Sarah Cafferkey is a convicted killer who once escaped from jail .
The 47-year-old, who recently moved into Point Cook, is at the centre of a nationwide hunt as police piece together the last moments of Ms Cafferkey's life.
The force has appealed to the person of interest to hand himself in.
Friends in shock, disbelief
Charlie Bezzina: What we know
Ms Cafferkey's body was found in a Point Cook house after the homicide squad executed a warrant to search it on Saturday night.
The 22-year-old Bacchus Marsh woman went missing on November 9, her car found in Maribyrnong days later but police did not hold fears for her safety until Friday.
The homicide squad has focussed on posts made via Facebook to Ms Cafferkey, which include him messaging: "Love the pics....Looking good Heartbreaker lol" and "Catch up when you get free time...."
The Herald Sun can reveal the person of interest has a violent history and recently split from his girlfriend.
In 1986 he was convicted of murder after stabbing an 18-year-old woman to death - a crime for which he was sentenced to a minimum 13 years jail.
He also staged a breakout from Pentridge Prison in 1990, but was caught in a Coburg backyard after 30 minutes bleeding from cuts caused by razor wire. He was found hiding under a trampoline.
Facebook pages reveal the man dubbed his former home in Werribee a "rape dungeon".
Police yesterday confirmed Miss Cafferkey's case was considered a murder investigation. Her body has been formally identified.
Police have not revealed how Ms Cafferkey was killed after a post mortem was conducted yesterday. But a yellow Commodore has been linked to the investigation.
The Herald Sun understands police investigating the case set up a crime scene around a stripped down yellow sedan on the Western Hwy near Bacchus Marsh on Friday.
It is believed the car belongs to the person of interest.
Images of a yellow car parked in the driveway of the house where Ms Cafferkey's body was found can be seen from aerial images of the property taken last October.
Interactions with Ms Cafferkey are among several leads police are following.
Meanwhile, Det-Inspector Michael Roberts of the homicide squad has ruled out an ex-boyfriend of Ms Cafferkey's as a person of interest.
The father of another man who lived at the property where the body was found said his son had been through a "considerable ordeal".
Denis Weily, dad of Point Cook man Adam Weily said: "Adam has been through a considerable ordeal. He's been referred to a psychologist due to the high degree of trauma."
"It's been extremely traumatic for all involved and we are 12,000 km away in Tanzania and can't help or do anything."
A staff member at El Zorro Transport where Adam works as a national transformation manager said: "He's not here.
"I don't know when he'll be back. I'm just taking messages for him and emailing them through to him. He phoned this morning to say he wouldn't be in."
Anyone with information is urged contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

VotingCentral has launched a polls website, where you can create a poll and invite people to vote on any topic.
The site is basic in its approach to voting and enters a crowded market against the likes of Quimble, and Vizu. Anyone can sign up to create their own poll and participate in others' polls. VotingCentral has broken down their polls into several categories to choose from, and you can search other polls by clicking on tags sprinkled throughout the site. Polls can also be filtered by username, most voted, or recently ended.
Beyond these basic functions, VotingCentral offers little in the way of community or sharing capabilities. The creators of VotingCentral admit that they will be adding more features in the coming months, and I hope this includes widgets, like those from PollDaddy, so that a user's poll can be placed on a MySpace profile or personal blog. VotingCentral also plans to add contests, in an attempt to gain traction.

All Native Americans Descended from One Ancestral Population
Home /Life/Genetics/All Native Americans Descended from One Ancestral Population
Genetics |

We now have new genetic clues to the origins of the American indigenous people. All Native Americans originate from a single group of people that across the Bering Sound to North America. They migrated across from Asia to America in one wave of immigration and not several. This, according to the first major genetic evidence analysis of ancient DNA.
A little over 11,000 years ago, a grieving family in Central Alaska laid to rest a six-week-old baby girl, a three-year-old child, and a preterm female fetus. An international team of researchers led by the Universities of Cambridge and Copenhagen sequenced the full genome of this infant girl named "Xach'itee'aanenh t'eede gay", or "Sunrise Child-girl" by the local Native community – "USR1" by the researchers – whose remains were found at the Upward Sun River archaeological site in Alaska in 2013.
They found that although the child lived around 11,500 years ago, long after people first arrived in the region, her genetic information did not match either of the two recognized branches of early Native Americans, referred to as Northern and Southern. Instead, she appeared to have belonged to an entirely distinct Native American population, called Ancient Beringians.
Further analyses then revealed that the Ancient Beringians was an offshoot of the same ancestor population as the Northern and Southern Native American groups, but that they separated from that population earlier in its history.
"We didn't know this population existed,"
"These data also provide the first direct evidence of the initial founding Native American population, which sheds new light on how these early populations were migrating and settling throughout North America."
– Ben Potter, one of the lead authors of the study and a professor of anthropology at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.
Genetic analysis and demographic modeling indicate that a single founding ancestral Native American group split from East Asians about 35,000 years ago. Then, about 20,000 years ago, that group split into two groups: the Ancient Beringians and the ancestors of all other Native Americans.
The study compared data from the Upward Sun River remains with both ancient genomes and those of numerous present-day populations. Allowing the researchers to establish that the Ancient Beringian group was more closely related to early Native Americans than their Asian and Eurasian ancestors, and then to determine the precise nature of that relationship and how, over time, they split into distinct populations.

The findings suggest two scenarios for populating the New World. One is that there were two distinct groups of people who crossed over the Beringian land bridge prior to 15,700 years ago. And a second that one group of people crossed over the land bridge and then split into the two groups mentioned above: Ancient Beringians and other Native Americans, with the latter moving south of the ice sheets 15,700 years ago. The latter is a more plausible scenario according to the researchers.
The Ancient Beringian people remained in the Far North for thousands of years, while the ancestors of other Native American peoples spread south throughout the rest of North America. The genetic evidence then suggests that Athabascan ancestors moved north again, possibly around 6,000 years ago, and eventually assimilated or replaced the Ancient Beringian population.
The study, Terminal Pleistocene Alaskan genome reveals a first founding population of Native Americans, is published in Nature.

"My goal with my work is to paint what I love and convey that honestly so the viewer can feel that as well."
"As an Illustrator for more than thirty years, I have told many stories with my paintings that have helped me in my cross over to Gallery work. Every day life has a story no matter how small and deserves telling if it has the right light. The light is what makes something very special or just forgettable. Cool overcast light can have a beautiful soft edge look, were as sunny warm light can create interesting patterns and color. In order to get this on canvas and convey it's honestly to the viewer, an artist must have the skills of visual language.

Celebrating a true comedy icon
A new documentary on GOLD explores Tony Hancock's life and legacy using previously unseen personal archives. We look at why he is still such a fascinating figure
By Chris Miller, Writer
To say Tony Hancock is an influential figure in British comedy is a huge understatement. With Hancock's Half Hour, he – along with legendary writers Ray Galton and Alan Simpson – more or less invented the sitcom, hauling comedy out of its traditions of music hall and light entertainment and into a recognisably modern form.
Hancock also helped establish an enduring character type: the self-deluding buffoon who thinks everyone around them is wrong and they are the only sane one. Alan Partridge, David Brent, even Homer Simpson – you can trace them all back to Hancock. And of course, most importantly, he was head-smackingly funny, creating shows that still make us laugh today more than 50 years after his death.
As the purveyor of classic comedy to UK viewers, GOLD knows this very well – which is why it has an evening of Tony Hancock coming your way on Saturday 14 January. First there's an in-depth documentary, Very Nearly An Armful, featuring previously unseen personal items including photos, scripts, scrapbooks and letters that illustrate the great man's life in vivid detail. It also has clips from Hancock's 1963 ATV series, unbroadcast for over 50 years.
This is followed by two of the most cherished episodes of his sitcom, "The Blood Donor" and "Twelve Angry Men" – newly colourised using the latest digital technology.
"His whole comedy persona and voice comes from a place of trying to belong, trying to be respected, trying to succeed, and having ambition that is often beyond the grasp of your ability," says comedian Jack Dee, who presents Very Nearly An Armful and whose Noughties sitcom Lead Balloon was decidedly Hancockian. "I've often found that level of self-delusion is a great comedy catalyst; it's very funny when people fool themselves."
Contributors to the documentary include celebrated comedians and comic actors including Eddie Izzard, Diane Morgan, Lucy Porter and Clive Anderson, as well as Pirates Of The Caribbean star Kevin McNally, who took on Hancock's role in a BBC radio re-staging of some of the classic scripts in 2014. Lucy Hancock, Tony's great-niece who compiled much of his archive in a book published in 2022, guides viewers through the treasure trove of documents and objects.
"You can't help seeing these writings as missing bits of a jigsaw," Dee says. "Little lines in a letter, for instance, seem to have now revealed more about him as a person than was intended when they were written. I liked seeing the scripts with his notes in the margins and having glimpses into how he was reading a script and what he took from it. You were able to have a visceral sense of him from reading that material."
Dee says it's not as if Hancock is some unfairly overlooked or forgotten figure – he calls him "a consistent reference in comedy" – but it is always worth revisiting the work and persona of someone so culturally significant. "I hope people will watch the documentary and see there's an inherited importance that we owe to Hancock," he says. "If you love British comedy it's interesting to watch his work and see how he provided the building blocks for modern British television sitcoms."
There are numerous shows, lines and moments that made Hancock a titan in the history of comedy. Below we present our pick of them.
When is GOLD's Tony Hancock: Very Nearly An Armful on TV?
You can see Tony Hancock: Very Nearly An Armful on Saturday 14 January at 8pm on GOLD HD (CH 124). The colourised episodes follow, with "The Blood Donor" at 10.05pm and "Twelve Angry Men" at 10.45pm.
You know what comes next… Has anyone in Britain ever donated blood without this much-quoted dialogue, from which the GOLD documentary takes its name, running through their head? It's a superb line, delivered superbly, and the moment that precedes it is one of the best summaries of Hancock's persona. "A pint? Have you gone raving mad?" Self-deluded, Hancockian characters almost always assume that everyone else has gone raving mad and they are the lone voice of sanity. Wrongly.
Musician Pete Doherty, who also appears in Very Nearly An Armful, is a huge Hancock fan – in fact his band the Libertines took their name of their first album Up The Bracket from a phrase Hancock used repeatedly, especially in the original radio version of Hancock's Half Hour. Other variations included "A punch up the bracket is not the panacea for all ills" and "A good punch up the bracket never hurt anybody". An old cockney term meaning a punch to the throat, when delivered with Hancock's trademark frustrated petulance it's a mark of the turmoil bubbling under his character's surface.
This line from "Twelve Angry Men", one of the episodes showing in colour on GOLD, is a great gag in itself – but it's also a perceptive and telling line, the kind that has been heard from many memorable comic characters in the decades since. The type who are certain they know everything, until they open their mouths and prove their ignorance. David Brent's Dostoyevsky lecture springs to mind.
Hancock's 1961 film The Rebel – written, like much of his most popular work, by Galton and Simpson – offered a twist on his usual persona, although one no less deluded. Hancock's prosaic office clerk (also named Tony) gets the idea that he is an artistic genius and, after finding his art limited by his workaday surroundings, moves to Paris to mix with the bohemians. When a genuine artist asks Tony to comment on his work, he produces this profound-seeming but meaningless criticism, encapsulating the film's skewering of both bohemian and bourgeois culture. The film is packed with other terrific gags: when Tony informs his landlady that a certain work is a self-portrait, she responds, "Who of?"
The Hancock's Half Hour episode "The Missing Page" is like a template for every sitcom that followed. Hancock reaches the final page of a mystery novel called Lady, Don't Fall Backwards and is eager for the murderer to be revealed, only to be confronted with an advert encouraging skinny men to bulk up. Much to the amusement of flatmate Sid (Sid James), he embarks on his own investigation to find the missing page, interrogating the librarian, the book's previous borrower and the publisher as his vexation rises in a crescendo – right up until the point where the whole thing proves completely futile. You could easily drop, say, Larry David straight into this classic half-hour of TV.

Current estimates suggest that about one in 33 children and one in eight teens suffer from depression. Suicides affect even the five year-old demographic and parents will do well to remember that for teens it is the third leading cause of death.
It would be foolhardy to assume that a Scripture alone can cure an ailment any more than wishful thinking can mend a broken leg. Mind you, faith has the power to move mountains and is therefor part of any kind of physical, emotional or psychological healing process.
The kind of scripture use I refer to here is instead the use of God's word as a whip, designed to scare a child into following the herd and pretend to be or feel something she is or does not.
Not surprisingly, depression treatments involve prescription drugs as indicated, an intervention for the entire family – not just the affected child – and also a familial education on the disease and its treatment. Christian families in particular may require a fundamental education about the physical manifestations of depression in addition to the behavioral signs.
and training in righteousness," it should never be used as a whip but instead as a means for removing guilt. Parents who are made to feel guilty for their children showing (or being treated for) symptoms of depression may be suffering from harsh counsel.
Last but not least: remember that God put you in charge of parenting your child. This means advocating for him, working with him and strengthening him to become a strong Christian himself. Seek godly counsel within the church, medical counsel outside of it and above all seek daily help from above. In this manner you can cherish your child's individuality, embrace the depression, work within the treatment plan, and continue to raise a faithful child in the process.
