Web Server Consolidation29 Feb 2016
For a couple of years I’ve using A Small Orange as a hosting service. They’ve been very good, and if you’re looking for an inexpensive shared host with excellent reliability, I’d definitely recommend them.
However my yearly renewal was due, so I decided to take the plunge and move over to running my own virtual server with Digital Ocean.
I’ve been doing a lot more work on Unix systems recently, so I’m reasonably confident I mostly know what I’m doing. There are lots of useful guides at Digital Ocean to help you out, and I now have a working nginx server serving all of my sites, plus PostFix running as a mail forwarder.
I also ported my company website from a Python Google App Engine site to a static Jekyll one, and am hosting this on my own server now too.
I’m very happy I’m now in complete control of serving all my sites exactly how I want to.
Also it was quite fun setting up an Ubuntu server up from scratch exactly how I wanted it. I wouldn’t have said that a few years ago!


A Nashville judge has ordered District Attorney Glenn Funk to publicly publish on June 9 the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation’s file on a deadly police shooting in East Nashville’s James A. Cayce Homes public housing community.
The TBI report details the agency’s investigation of the shooting death of Clemmons on Feb. 10. Nashville Police Officer Joshua Lippert shot and killed 31-year-old Clemmons in the James A. Cayce Homes public housing complex in East Nashville, according to police.
Earlier this month, Funk announced he would not prosecute the officer. And he also asked a judge to allow him to release of the TBI’s investigative file.
At the time of Clemmons’ death, TBI’s files were confidential unless a judge ordered their release.
Chancellor Ellen Hobbs Lyle previously said she would allow the TBI’s investigation to become public, and set in a Tuesday court filing the following timeline for that to happen:
June 2: District attorney should complete redactions, removing personal info from the report, and notify the judge
June 9: The investigative file should be posted on the DA’s website
July 10: The file should be removed from the DA’s website Lyle says in a Tuesday order that the file should not be given to her, which prevents it from becoming public record before the above deadlines.
She does not say why there is a week-long buffer between when redactions are done and when the file becomes public.
The judge also does not say why the report must be taken down after about a month.
On May 5, Gov. Bill Haslam signed a measure that says future TBI investigations of officer-involved shooting deaths should become public record after a prosecutor decides whether to press charges.

Former Guyana Defence Force (GDF) Lieutenant Oliver Hinckson is thinking of resuming efforts to have restored to him the US $10,000 prize money and a prestigious award from the Cuban literary house, Casa de las Americas.
In his early 30’s, Hinckson won the first prize for literature in the organisation’s international literary competition from a field of 760 entries from 23 countries in 1978 with an unpublished book, Enemy Within.
Shortly after the results of the competition were announced the prize was withdrawn from Hinckson who was then on the run from the Guyana police. The Cubans said he had breached the rules of the competition by using a non-de-plume and by not disclosing that he was in trouble with the law.
Hinckson acknowledged that he wrote under a pen name – that of his son Kacey Hinckson. But he claimed that the Cubans knew that he had used his son’s name on the manuscript and that they had told his relatives that they were not concerned with the troubles he had been having with the police.
Hinckson could not pursue the matter for some time, because just around then he decided to give himself up after over two years on the run, and accompanied by his lawyer, he reported to the police in September 1978 to begin serving a sentence imposed two years before.
He wrote Casa de Las Americas through the Cuban Embassy asking that the prize be reinstated.
Hinckson said he quit the GDF having been a paratrooper and intelligence officer who was trained in Britain at the prestigious Mons Officer Cadet School.
His troubles with the local police began in 1973 when, according to him, he was charged with being in possession of a house-breaking implement – a hammer.
After a court battle, he was sentence in 1976 to two years and nine months imprisonment, but made a daring escape from custody. It was during that period when he was in hiding, mostly in Guyana, that he wrote Enemy Within. It took him two months.
He was faced with a series of other police charges, pleaded guilty, and had sentences of nine months imposed on him, to run concurrently with the one he had been serving.
The manuscript blends fact and fiction. The plot centers on the fact that a flocculent formula was discovered locally for the Guyana bauxite industry. Hinckson wove around it a fictional plot in which foreign agents connected with bauxite multi-nationals attempting to steal the formula.
The first-time author has had the book published in the USA and admits that it sold very well there and back home. “I have just one copy left and I have hidden it, even from myself.”
The drafts of two other books – The Marionette and By Trial, By Terror –have been put aside for years as the double St. Stanislaus College scholarship winner moved on to get his BSc in International Relations and Master’s in Global Studies.
The Doctorate in Foreign Policy still eludes him but he is determined to get it this year along with the coveted Cuban prize after 37 years.
It must be the letter that Hinckson received from the famous Guyanese novelist and poet Jan Carew in 1978 that fuels his determination. One paragraph says it all: “You showed a mastery of narrative form, of characterization and of pacing a fairly long work of this genre. You definitely should continue with your craft of writing, and you should do so with the knowledge that writing is a life-long vocation.”

The Department of Telecommunications (DoT) issued the draft Indian Telecommunication Bill, 2022. The proposed Bill aims to bring in sweeping changes to how the telecom sector is governed, primarily by giving the Centre more powers in several areas to do so.
Indian Telecommunication Bill, 2022:
The Centre aims to consolidate and amend the existing laws governing the provision, development, expansion and operation of telecommunication services, telecom networks and infrastructure, in addition to assignment of spectrum.
The draft Bill consolidates three separate acts that govern the telecommunications sector —
Indian Telegraph Act 1885,
Indian Wireless Telegraphy Act 1933, and
The Telegraph Wires, (Unlawful Protection) Act 1950.
Inclusion of new-age over-the-top communication services like WhatsApp, Signal and Telegram in the definition of telecommunication services.
As per the draft law, providers of telecommunication services will be covered under the licensing regime, and will be subjected to similar rules as other telecom operators.
This issue has been under contention for several years now with telecom service providers seeking a level-playing field with OTT apps over communication services such as voice calls, messages, etc. where operators had to incur high costs of licences and spectrum, while OTT players rode on their infrastructure to offer free services.
The Centre is also looking to amend the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India Act (TRAI Act) to dilute the sectoral watchdog’s function of being a recommendatory body.
The current TRAI Act mandates the telecom department to seek the regulator’s views before issuing a new licence to a service provider.
The proposed Bill does away with this provision.
The new Bill also proposes to remove the provision where if the DoT cannot accept TRAI’s recommendations or needs modification, it had to refer back the recommendation for reconsideration by TRAI.
The DoT has also proposed that if a telecom entity in possession of spectrum goes through bankruptcy or insolvency, the assigned spectrum will revert to the control of the Centre.
So far, in insolvency proceedings, there has been a lack of clarity on whether the spectrum owned by a defaulting operator belongs to the Centre, or whether banks can take control of it.
It also proposes to replace the Universal Service Obligation Fund (USOF) with the Telecommunication Development Fund (TDF).
Universal Service Obligation Fund (USOF):
USOF is the pool of funds generated by the 5 per cent Universal Service Levy that is charged upon all telecom fund operators on their Adjusted Gross Revenue.
The USOF has largely been used to aid rural connectivity.


LIVE: The Pine Hill Project: Lucy Kaplansky & Richard Shindell @ The Egg, 11/7/14
Review by Greg Haymes
Photographs by Andrzej Pilarczyk
Take two A-list solo singer-songwriters in the folk tradition. Pair them up with a master multi-instrumentalist/producer. Back them up with a crack rhythm section. And have them serve up an evening of their favorite songs, both originals and a wide swath of cover tunes.
It sounds like the recipe for a best-concerts-of-the-year-list contender, doesn’t it? Unfortunately, last weekend’s Albany debut of the new Pine Hill Project – featuring folk stars Richard Shindell and Lucy Kaplansky – rarely caught fire. Their performance at The Egg was simply too tentative. Considering that it was only their third tour-stop, maybe that was to be expected.
Kaplansky and Shindell have been friends for 25 years, and for nearly all of that time, they’ve talked about making an album of duets. Earlier this year, after a successful fan-funded Kickstarter campaign, they finally made the album, Tomorrow You’re Going, a collection of songs by other songwriters who they admire. And although the album isn’t slated for release for another four months, they’ve hit the road to offer fans a preview.
Kaplansky and Shindell were backed by a trio of Levon Helm Band alum – bassist Byron Isaacs, drummer Justin Guip and the magnificent multi-instrumentalist (as well as the upcoming album’s producer) Larry Campbell – and the band was absolutely solid throughout. But Shindell and Kaplansky frequently seemed a bit lost on stage, suddenly finding themselves with a full band and driving rhythm section after their long and successful years as solo performers.
The song selection was excellent, however. A hushed country ballad rendition of the Wilborn Brothers’ broken-hearted “Making Plans” kicked of the night with Campbell making his pedal steel guitar weep. With the full band behind them, they nailed Greg Brown’s “Lately,” brought a funky, soulful strut to Gillian Welch’s “Wichita” and served up a heavenly rendition of Dave Carter’s “Farewell to St. Delores.”
Their rendition of the Grateful Dead’s “Deal” nearly collapsed mid-song, when it became obvious that Kaplansky and Shindell were both confused about who was supposed to sing the next verse or when to start it. Campbell came to the rescue, and he whipped up an unexpected extended solo to cover the gaffe. They fared considerably better with the show-closing rave-up on the traditional “I Know You Rider,” transformed into a Dead-worthy, droning psychedelic swirl that evolved into an electric guitar duel between Campbell and Shindell. And then they capped off the night with a rousing encore sing-along of the Band’s “The Weight.”
Throughout the show, they dropped in some of their own signature songs, Kaplansky delivering her best performance of the night on Shindell’s “The Ballad Of Mary Magdalene,” while Shindell rocked his Halloween break-up song, “Are You Happy Now?,” buoyed by Campbell on mandolin.
Shindell and Kaplansky were the headliners, but Larry Campbell was clearly the most valuable player on stage all night long on Friday. Not only playing with the headliners, Campbell also pulled double-duty, opening the show with a crisp 45-minute opening set with his wife-powerhouse vocalist Teresa Williams and the rhythm section. Campbell ripped it up on Johnny Cash’s “Big River,” as well as his own bluesy plea for sympathy “There Ain’t Nobody for Me” and his lilting country waltz “Midnight Highway.” And he as well as an exquisite solo acoustic guitar instrumental rendition of Turlough O’Carolan’s melancholy Celtic ballad “Blind Mary.”
And then Williams – literally jumping up and down onstage as if possessed – unleashed her vocal cords at full blast on a pair of gospel nuggets, “If I Had My Way (Samson & Delilah)” and the set-closing “Keep Your Lamp Trimmed and Burning.” There was little doubt that the opening act had stolen the show…
NOTE: Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams team up with Little Feat keyboardist Bill Payne for two shows at the Falcon in Marlboro – at 7pm tonight (Monday, November 10) and Tuesday. Donations encouraged.

Last June, Neal Bogan, Evansville native and the Wesselman Nature Society’s Canoe Evansville’s program naturalist, launched Paddle With Your Pooch, a furry-friendly event that allows outdoor enthusiasts to bring their pets on a guided paddle tour of the Bluegrass Fish and Wildlife Area’s Loon Pit lake. Located a half mile off the Boonville-New Harmony Road exit from Interstate 164, these grounds boast 2,500 acres of open skies, more than 25 lakes, lush vegetation, wildlife sights and sounds, and a bevy of opportunities for hunting, fishing, and canoeing.
Each May through October, Canoe Evansville offers a variety of paddle trips throughout local waterways such as Patoka River, the Bluegrass Fish and Wildlife Area, and Cypress and Pigeon creeks. As a frequent attendee of the annual St. Louis Paddle With Your Pooch Boat Competition, Tim Jochim, Bogan’s assistant, pitched the idea to host a similar event (sans the race) in anticipation that the program will grow. “I know there’s a lot of people who are active with their pets,” says Bogan, “so we were curious to see how many would take interest.
Paddle With Your Pooch’s initial event met capacity by garnering 20 canoers, 17 dogs — cocker spaniels, Labradors, beagles, poodles, shih tzus, basset hounds, and others — and also served as a springboard for their second pooch outing one month later. The program is a two-hour tour of a reclaimed coal mine, which has been replanted with native and non-native vegetation — phragmites, cotton wood, willow trees, milfoil, etc. — and includes sightings of a beaver lodge, blue herons, song birds, and more.
The goal, says Bogan, is for owners to bond with their pets while familiarizing themselves with the mile- and one-quarter-long lake. Too much paddling can make the canines anxious, however, which is why there are plenty of breaks and recreational opportunities. “The dogs really enjoy getting out in the water near the islands,” he says.
Even if some participants and their dogs are rookies to canoeing, says Bogan, “it’s still a great opportunity to get people out and do something unlike they have ever done before.”
With two successful dog events under its belt, Canoe Evansville is looking forward to the summer. This year’s Paddle With Your Pooch is from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. on June 29 and Sept. 14.

The Memo: Biden looks for way to win back deflated Black voters
White House hires college senior as top Trump official: report
A 23-year-old senior attending George Washington University has been tapped to fill a top role in the White House's Presidential Personnel Office (PPO), Politico reported Tuesday.
The PPO, according to the White House's website, oversees "the selection process for presidential appointments and works to recruit candidates to serve the president in departments and agencies throughout the Executive Branch."
According to Politico, which cited three administration officials familiar with the reported hire, James Bacon, who is currently studying for his bachelor's degree, will be the office's next director of operations.
Bacon will reportedly succeed Katja Bullock, who is more than 50 years his senior, in the new role. He will also work closely under John McEntee, Trump's former personal assistant who was fired in 2018 and recently rehired to head up the office, according to Politico.
Prior to his reported hire, Bacon spent some time working at the Department of Transportation while continuing his studies and served as a White House liaison at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, according to Politico.
Officials also told the publication that Bacon paused his studies briefly to work on the president's campaign.
The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Hill.

Hip Hop Recording Artist Macklemore Shares a Special Concern For The Addiction Problems Facing Young People Today.
In our meeting with pop star MACKLEMORE to begin a conversation on opioid awareness and prevention. JMFF looks forward to working with MACKLEMORE in the months ahead, and hopes to create a joint public service announcement designed to highlight the need for funding for this epidemic disease.
Together we are working with Lake County Drug Prevention Task Force and law enforcement to provide critical drug take-back boxes throughout Lake County. JMFF’s first box will be installed this month in Knollwood. Drug take-back boxes play a critical role in taking drugs out of medicine cabinets and away from harms’ reach….
HIPAA update incorporated into law signed by Obama
JMFF has worked with lobbyists and legislators to help secure lifesaving changes in HIPAA that were signed into law in July in the Family Mental Health Act. JMFF wording incorporated into law now allows licensed mental health professionals to share the diagnoses, treatment plans, medications and medication related instructions of a patient with a serious mental illness to an identified responsible caregiver if that information is necessary to protect the health, safety, or welfare of the individual or general public. It also allows educational agencies or institutions to disclose an education record to the caregiver of the student if a physician, psychologist, or other recognized mental health professional believes such disclosure to the caregiver is necessary to protect the health, safety, or welfare of such student or the safety of one or more other individuals. In the addiction fight, immediate notification of any change in a patient’s status is critical. The reality of patients fighting addictions like in Jordan’s case - as many others like him have- died because medical providers failed to notify his parents or doctors that he was in danger. These new changes will prevent further instances...
“We have to start recognizing addiction is a disease. We hope this will help patients come out of the shadows and get on the road to recovery as well. Heroin does not know socio-economics. Heroin does not know ZIP codes.”
DailyNorthShore.com. July 24, 2016
JMFF expands donation of BOTVIN life skills and education program to include District 109 and 112. This donation brings much needed information to all middle school students in the Highland Park, Deerfield, Highwood and Riverwoods communities.
We have earmarked an additional $25k to be used to match donations made towards our Nasal Narcan purchase.
To date, Compass Health has donated $1,000, Vernon Hills EMT’s have pledged $1875, and the Warren-Waukegan Fire District has donated $3,750 – (picture of Philip Runtz presenting ceremonial check)
These donations combined with JMFF’s matching contribution have allowed for the purchase of an additional 353 doses of nasal Narcan – and will save 353 lives!
JMFF is proud to announce its purchase of 1,000 doses of the lifesaving opioid overdose reversal medication Naloxone. Naloxone instantly block opioids from attaching to receptors in the brain and restores breathing - bringing overdose victims back to life.
This purchase, the first of its kind by a private foundation in Illinois, will be distributed to first responders in 65 areas throughout Lake, Cook and DuPage Counties identified by Senator Mark Kirk and Commissioner Richard Boykin as those whose residents are at greatest risk of overdose and death due to opioids. This donation is critical to solving the issue of Chicagoland's dwindling supply, yet rapidly growing demand. It is anticipated that JMFF's contribution will save 500+ lives....and greatly reduce the dangerous current statistic of 1 area death every 3 days.
To help ensure that no local child or individual dies of an opioid overdose, JMFF invites you to please join in our efforts to make sure each first responder arrives fully equipped to save a life. When overdose occurs, the difference between life and death can be measured in minutes. Lives are saved when responders carry Naloxone.
“Naloxone is saving lives across Illinois and should be readily available to help combat the opioid and heroin epidemic,” said Senator Mark Kirk. “With help from the Filler Foundation we have secured enough Narcan to equip every police department in Lake County along with seven departments in suburban Cook with this lifesaving drug.”
Each $100 donation puts Naloxone in the hands of one first responder.
JMFF is proud to match the first $25,000 in donations, so that together we can double the dosage and save 1,000 lives.
Are you enthusiastic and want to get involved? Do you have a passion for helping others and want to join in the fight against opiate abuse and addiction? Consider joining our Junior Board. (need link to a form for contact info)
Join our first gathering on October 13, 2016. Fill out the form below and we'll contact you with more information.
Keep up with the Jordan Michael Filler Foundation news and information.

Dehydrated, powdered masa is often referred to as instant corn masa. Maseca is a popular brand and can be found in most grocery stores. The flour is made from cooked ground hominy and looks like white cornmeal.
Cotija is an aged strong-tasting and somewhat hard, dry cheese made from cow's milk. Named for the town of Cotija, Michoacan, where it originated, it is called the "Parmesan of Mexico," and is ideal for grating; available in most Latin markets.
Cuitlacoche is corn smut, a type of fungus that invades the growing ears of corn, causing the kernels to swell into gray or blue-black masses. Known as the "truffle of Mexico", it is considered a delicacy and has the same uses as mushrooms, with a much more complex flavor. It is available fresh or canned.

Hays Planned Parenthood will close from lack of funds
By ELIZABETH GOLDEN
By ELIZABETH GOLDEN
Two people will lose their jobs when Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri closes its Hays health center after 38 years of business.
The organization is closing its Hays health center June 30 in order to save its Wichita clinic.
"The reason why we are able to still provide services in Wichita is because of the closing of the Hays health center," said Elise Higgins, Kansas manager of government affairs.
The Wichita office will be funded mainly through community donations after an extended legal battle challenging the distribution of public health money. The so-called Title X funds come from the Public Health Service Act, a federal program devoted to family planning. The Title X money aims to help low-income women and men with reproductive services.
The law requires the state to first allocate Title X money to public health departments and hospitals. That leaves no funding for specialty family planning clinics, such as Planned Parenthood.
In March, an U.S. District Court of Appeals panel covering Kansas ruled the state could strip clinics in Wichita and Hays of the money. Planned Parenthood had filed a lawsuit contesting the decision.
The battle ended May 9, and federal funds officially were stripped for specialty family planning clinics.
David Gittrich, state development director at Kansans for Life, thinks it's a good move for the community.
Although the Hays health center does not directly perform abortions, the clinic does refer patients seeking abortions to other clinics.
"I'm always delighted when a huge abortion-minded organization closes one of its affilates," Gittrich said. "This is a big positive move for the Hays community. Having a baby is a blessing, not a curse, and any organization that promotes or refers for abortions should be closed. They're not really helping women."
Federal funds brought in approximately $330,000, according to court documents.
"We're still here for our patients, and we are fighting every day to maintain, restore, or expand access to health care in Kansas despite all the obstacles in our path," said Interim CEO Ron Ellifrits, in a written statement.
"The generous support of private individuals across the state, as well as the difficult decision to close our health center in Hays, will allow Planned Parenthood to continue providing services for as many Kansas women and men as possible while Kansas lawmakers continue to play politics with women's health."
Last year, the organization provided services to more than 3,700 patients at the health centers in Wichita and Hays.
The Hays Center will continue seeing patients until June 26, and officially close its doors June 30. The clinic manager and a nurse practitioner both will lose their jobs, Higgins said.

Magy Onkol. 2020 Sep 23;64(3):217-223. Epub 2020 Aug 5.
Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in lung cancer is a new effective treatment as part of a complex treatment strategy. In the advanced stage of non-small cell non-squamous lung cancer, without actionable mutation, the immune monotherapy or combination treatment with platinum based chemotherapy is a new standard of care depending on PD-L1 status. In case of advanced squamous cell lung cancer the situation is similar. The exact role of combination PD-1 axis and CTLA-4 inhibitor treatment with or
without chemotherapy is not exactly defined. Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy can be used in second or more line treatment as well. After exhaustion of targeted treatment the efficacy of the combination of immunotherapy with angiogenesis inhibitor and platinum based chemotherapy is promising. In locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer after radiochemotherapy the consolidation PD-L1 inhibitor treatment is a new standard of care in case of PD-L1 positivity. There are Phase III trials in neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting as well. In extensive stage small cell lung cancer the platinum-etoposide treatment with PD-L1 inhibitor is a new standard, but we do not have any effective biomarkers yet.

Spectre spends much of its runtime leaning on the past successes of the Bond franchise rather than standing on its own two feet.
To be fair, Spectre checks off all the regular Bond tropes. Mendes, the director of Skyfall, is back again, and he provides plenty of action and superb visuals—yes, I’m including the Bond Girls. But the action sequences are tied together loosely by an underdeveloped plot. In fact, I’m still unsure what Blofeld’s agenda was. I know he wished to unite nine intelligence agencies into one, but he never explained why—he just spouts vague lines about ‘Information.’ Knowing Blofeld, it probably involves some form of world domination.
The most unnecessary aspect of the film—and the focus of this review—is its attempt to tie in Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace, and Skyfall. I understand that they’re trying to raise the stakes, by making Blofeld the ‘author of Bond’s pain,’ but it cheapens Craig’s franchise. The audience doesn’t need a trumped up backstory in order to care about the struggle between Bond and Blofeld. At this point, it’s automatic; Audiences have lived vicariously through his exploits for half a century.
I wouldn’t be bothered by the constant references to the Daniel Craig Bond films, if the execution weren’t so ham-fisted. The film doesn’t ease the audience into the connections. We’re forced to accept that Blofeld has been involved since the start without much evidence. Q literally scans a ring on his magic lap-top, and the inanimate object conveniently connects all the baddies from the prior films to Blofeld.
Worse yet, by the end of the film, Blofeld sets up a scrapbook display, solely for Bond, in the abandoned halls of MI6. Bond moves past pictures of M, Vesper Lynd, and all the players that he’s either killed or failed to save. This scene doesn’t elicit any real connection between Blofeld and Bond. Instead the audience is left to ask: “How, amidst all the world domination, did Blofeld find the time to set up this display?”
I’m not vying for the position of screenwriter either, but subtle references to Bond’s past might have aided in melding the separate films. For instance, there’s a scene where Bond is drunk, and having a one sided conversation with a Rat; He could have commented that he’s still standing. And there’s another scene where he finds a tape of Vesper Lynd’s interrogation. Why not have him watch it and garner some new piece of evidence against Spectre? Alright, perhaps Eva Green was busy, but you get the point.
The people that get these references will appreciate the fan service, and the ones that don’t, won’t give a shit anyhow; They’re there to watch stuff explode. Besides, the whole problem of catching an audience up could have been avoided if they had just decided to make a stand-alone film. It’s simple: Pit Bond against Blofeld for his last hurrah. No Cane and Able bullshit. Just a Double-O agent, up against an agent of chaos.
In summary, Spectre’s good enough to recommend, but due to its stitched together plot, it’s far from the suave send-off that Craig deserved. (Editors Note: Despite commenting he’d rather kill himself than make another bond, he’s signed on for another film)

music career sky rocketed, 50 gave hand at acting, starring alongside senior actor Terrence Howard in the semi-autobiographical film "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" which chronicles his personal life, an inner city drug dealer who turns away from crime to pursue his passion, rap music. Putting a gun theme in its advertisement, the flick provoked protest from some community leaders who at the end had the movie posters banned. Amid the controversies, "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" hit the theaters as slated though, on November 5, 2005. Already becoming a household name, 50 added more film projects into his resume, starring in the 2007 "Home of the Brave", being in the same scene with Samuel L. Jackson and Jessica Biel among others.
As of 2007, 50 was billed to star in three more films, "The Dance", "Live Bet", and "The Ski Mask Way", all slated for 2008 release with the latter also saw him serving as producer for the first time. In the meantime, his music career was still going strong as the third studio album "Curtis" is set to release on September 4, 2007. He was about to name this piece "Before I Self Destruct" because he saw himself doing so but then thought otherwise. He then came up with "Curtis S.S.K." with the abbreviation referring to SoundScan Killa before deciding for the last time to name the album simply "Curtis" He claimed that the moniker "Before I Self Destruct" would be kept for his next project, the fourth album that will be released February 4, 2008.
As of his personal life, 50 has a son, named Marquise Jackson, with his then girlfriend, Shaniqua Tompkins, who was born in 1997. It was the birth of the infant that brought drastic changes to the star's life, of which he was quoted as saying, "[w]hen my son came into my life, my priorities changed, because I wanted to have the relationship with him, that I didn't have with my father." Greater than that, he also credited his son to become the inspiration of his career, revealed "[m]e being an artist on the music front came from my son actually.

Oded Hacohen, a lawyer for Eva Hoffe, said Brod's will gave the collection to her mother as a gift and gave her the right to bequeath it to the Israel National Museum or any institution of her choosing, in Israel or abroad, under whatever conditions she decides. He cited a 1974 Tel Aviv District Court ruling backing that interpretation and quoting Brod's will.
That means, he said, Eva Hoffe inherited the documents legally and is free to do with them as she pleases, including selling them to the German Literature Archive, which has been negotiating with her to buy the remaining Kafka and Brod papers.
"Esther Hoffe dedicated her life to publishing Brod's works. ... Brod wrote in his will that her family should enjoy the profits," Hacohen said.
Heller retorts that the will only refers to royalties, not ownership, and didn't give Esther Hoffe the right to hand the collection to her heirs. He argued in court that since she failed to pick an archive to receive the documents, the court should do so. Heller contended in court that the Israeli National Library was Brod's first preference, saying he had evidence Brod wrote a later will bequeathing his literary estate directly to it.
The Tel Aviv Family Court ordered the collection opened a year ago, saying it wants to know what is there before deciding who owns it. That ruling won't come until experts are done inspecting the papers, which could take several weeks.
"The library does not intend to give up the cultural assets that legally belong to it and thus to the Israeli and Jewish people," said David Blumberg, chairman of the Israel National Library, which is a nonprofit and non-governmental body.
Ulrich von Buelow, the director of manuscripts at the German Literary Archive, said Brod and Esther Hoffe had frequent discussions with the archive over placing the material there.
"We are interested in having the manuscripts because we have so many others, also from Brod, and so many letters that would complement them," von Buelow said.
Whatever they contain, the piles of handwritten material will keep historians and researchers busy for years, Heller said.
Aside from previously unknown versions of Kafka's work, the trove could give more insight on Kafka's personal life, including his relationship with his lover, Dora Diamant. It may include papers that Kafka gave to Diamant but were stolen by the German Gestapo from her Berlin apartment in 1933, later obtained by Brod after World War II.
Loeb suspected that Brod kept many of the documents away from the public for fear their publication could compromise his friend's legacy.
"Kafka was very critical. He was not an easy man," she said. "Maybe Brod was worried that this could ruin his image."

Rheinmetall AG (rhine-muh-tall/rhine-muh-tell) is a German company specializing in defense and military technology.
Rheinmetall was founded in on 13 April 1889 as Rheinische Metallwaaren- und Maschinenfabrik AG by Josef Massenez, director of Hörder Bergwerks- und Hüttenverein. Operations were expanded under Heinrich Ehrhardt, initially setting up a plant in Düsseldorf and expanding from there. The company then acquired Dreysesche Gewehrfabrik, Munitions- und Waffenfabrik in 1901. After World War I, numerous limitations were placed upon Germany due to the Treaty of Versailles, with the company branching out to produce items such as steam locomotives and other heavy machinery.
Military production resumed in 1921, with the German government acquiring a majority stake in the company some four years later; the company then took over famed railway locomotive manufacturer August Borsig GmbH in 1933, with the resulting company becoming Rheinmetall-Borsig AG after a merger in 1936. The headquarters of the company was subsequently moved to Berlin in 1938; throughout World War II, the company produced arms for the German Army and was a frequent target of bombing runs. After the war, the company was barred from producing any military-related products for a time and attempted to branch out to other segments of the market to little success.
Rheinmetall-Borsig was then acquired by the Röchling Group in 1956 and was given a complete restructuring, now being named Rheinmetall Berlin AG. The company has since acquired more and more companies since then and is now one of the biggest defense companies in Europe.
Rheinmetall has made a few firearms over the years, including:
- MG3 - A general purpose machine gun developed from the famed MG 42 and chambered in 7.62 NATO
- RS556 - A modular assault rifle platform jointly developed by Rheinmetall and Steyr Mannlicher as a possible replacement for the Heckler & Koch G36
- S-18/1000 - Anti-tank rifle jointly developed by Solothurn and Rheinmetall and used during World War II
- MG 60 - Prototype general purpose machine gun
- MG 39 Rh - Prototype general purpose machine gun

TOKYO (TR) – Charges were formally filed at the Tokyo District Court on Tuesday against a university student accused of severing the genitals of a lawyer last month, reports the Asahi Shimbun (Sep. 2).
The victim, 42, will be required to visit a hospital over the course of a one-year period as a part of his recovery.
Kotsugai, a native of Tokyo, is a graduate student studying law at Keio University, where he is a boxer.
The attack took place at a law office in the Toranomon area. The suspect’s wife is employed at the same legal office.
On the morning of the attack, the couple and the victim met at the office to have a discussion. Kotsugai then began repeatedly punching the attorney in the face. With the lawyer nearly unconscious, the suspect then unzipped the victim’s pants and proceeded with the crime.

Mutations improving the folding of phage P22 tailspike protein affect its receptor binding activity.Baxa, U., Steinbacher, S., Weintraub, A., Huber, R., Seckler, R.
(1999) J Mol Biol 293: 693-701
- PubMed: 10543960
- DOI: https://doi.org/10.1006/jmbi.1999.3165
- Primary Citation of Related Structures:
1CLW, 1QA1, 1QA2, 1QA3
- PubMed Abstract:
Four previously isolated mutations in Salmonella phage P22 tailspike protein were used to study the relationship between protein stability, folding, and function. Tailspike protein binds and hydrolyzes the repetitive O-antigen structure in Salmonella lipopolysaccharide. Four mutations (V331G, V331A, A334V, A334I) are known to increase the folding efficiency, and two of them (at position 331) also increase the thermal stability of the protein. Octasaccharides comprising two repeating units of the O-antigens from two different Salmonella strains were employed to analyze the receptor binding function of the mutant proteins. Their endorhamnosidase enzymatic activity was assayed with the aid of a fluorescence-labeled dodecasaccharide. Both V331A and V331G were found to strongly affect O-antigen binding. Octasaccharide binding affinities of the mutant proteins are reduced tenfold and 200-fold, corresponding to a loss of 17% and 36% of the standard free energy of binding, respectively. Both mutations at position 334 affected O-antigen binding only slightly (DeltaDeltaG(0)B approximately 1 kJ/mol), but these mutations reduce the thermal stability of the protein. The observed effects on the endoglycosidase activity are fully explained by the changes in substrate binding, suggesting that neither of the mutations affect the catalytic rate. Crystal structures of all four mutants were determined to a resolution of 2.0 A. Except for the partly or completely missing side-chain, no significant changes compared to the wild-type protein structure were found for the mutants at position 331, whereas a small but significant backbone displacement around the mutation site in A334V and A334I may explain the observed thermal destabilization.

World Cup fever has taken its hold and in the spirit, it was important that my next review had a strong World Cup link. Therefore, what better film to review than 2002’s ‘Maid in Manhattan’. Y’know that famous World Cup themed film. Set in the spiritual home of football, New York, and starring the actress most associated with the beautiful game, Jennifer Lopez. Yes, Jennifer Lopez (who sung a verse in this year’s WC official song.) In reality, my girlfriend decided it had been a footballing overload and this was a suitable remedy. Think yourselves lucky though, I nearly wrote a very football-themed piece on Pitbull’s film debut in ‘Epic’, thanks to his involvement in this year’s official track.
(To the review) ‘Maid in Manhattan’ was a reasonably enjoyable experience. Lopez plays the struggling, single mother of a near-genius son and through some spectacularly coincidental occurrences, finds herself in contact with a pretty, “playboy” politician. The story is nice and is pleasant to watch without excelling any higher than that. Themes of social divides, snobbery and pride in one’s self are all handled in as serious a manner as you would expect from a rom-com.
Lopez’ character is strong, ambitious and leads every scene. You grow to admire and support Lopez’ character in how she handles her under-appreciation at work and the happiness of her son at home. The film makes you want only the best for its lead and it is a testament to the film’s production, acting and writing that you do.
The twists and turns may be easy to see coming, but the film manages not to loose its way as the film comes to climax. Lopez stays strong, independent and proud of herself, whilst the plot steers clear of becoming sensationalised. In most part, the final sequence of events stays plausible and real. The film is still a ‘Cinderella’ story for modern times, but the film succeeds in being more indulgent than tacky.
One attribute that may surprise is the choice of romantic male lead. For the early 00’s, it was not Hugh Grant that was chosen, nor Matthew McConaughey, not even Richard Gere. The actor that was chosen is the new face of ‘M’ in ‘Bond’ franchise. Ralph Fiennes, the actor who played Nazi war criminal Amon Goeth in ‘Schindler’s List’. Voldemort in a romantic comedy. Most recently known for Gustave in Wes Anderson’s ‘Grand Budapest Hotel’. However, he was not as odd as I anticipated. He had both hair and a nose, and what a lovely nose it was. 12 years ago this choice may have raised few eyebrows and putting aside his career-defining roles, Fiennes isn’t totally out of place. Lacking some charisma, Fiennes is nice in his interactions with Lopez and acts suitably nonchalant in contrast to his ever-fussing assistant (Stanley Tucci).
The film is a pleasant rom-com and an enjoyable watch. However, the only thing it ‘maid’ me want was more football. ★ ★ 1/2

I once spent a couple of years seeking out all the Oscar winning movies for Best Picture and Best Director and tried to watch them all. I think that most of those movies are still powerful today. I wonder if the same is true of books?
Does every bestseller in fiction still have what it takes? I’m not talking about the powerhouse classics that will forever own their status, I’m talking about books like the ones on the list below, which I have to admit don’t all ring a bell.
Granted, movies are easier to consume, so it wasn’t a stretch to actually watch all the big winners of all time. And we’re only dealing with about 90 years of Oscar so far. I’ll never forget the day my husband rented Citizen Kane. I think I lost interest in the project after that. : /
Anyway… I was hanging out over at my twitter and saw a flurry of people talking about their discoveries over at BibliOz.com. They have a nifty little tool that shows you the list of bestsellers for the week you were born. Who am I to resist?

It’s interesting to look back at “this day in history” kind of stuff, don’t you think? I love history. I’m sure my personal week in publishing is more interesting to me – just as yours will be to you – but there is something to be said about looking back. I confess I have only read THE EXORCIST on this list, but a few of these will be added to my TBR pile.
TRINITY by Leon Uris is one of my favorite books, which I think I love on a deeper level than most stories because it ties into my own history being full-blooded Irish. I am a dabbler in genealogy and find so much about the Irish and their history speaks to something deep inside me. Trinity is enough to make me pick up #4 in Fiction: QB VII and check it out.
I have been aware of Sylvia Plath on my periphery through my travels, but have never read THE BELL JAR in its entirety. Writing that feels like some odd dirty secret. I’ll be digging into Paperback Swap for those I think. I have a ton of credits there. Do you paperback swap, btw?
Check out your bestseller list from your birthday (make sure you enter the day before the month, that took me a while to figure out, ha!) and let me know what you find. Maybe we can start up a retro-book club and review the oldies in a blog chain.

ROCKER dad Noel Gallagher gathers his family together for a rare day out as he meets up with his teenage daughter Anais and her new boyfriend.
The former Oasis guitarist, 49, brought together his Scottish wife Sara their two young sons for a spot of lunch with 17-year-old Anais, mere days after showing his brother Liam how much he cares about his beef with "that d**k out of Blur" Damon Albarn.
Noel and Sara's adorable sons Donovan, nine, and Sonny, six, seemed in high spirits as they joined in the family fun at swanky Mexican joint Taqueria.
Noel, who recently performed with former nemesis Damon Albarn on TV, left Anais' mother Meg Mathews for his current wife Sara, 43, amid claims of infidelity less than a year after his daughter was born.
But there was no obvious awkwardness between the women during the lunch date, and as everyone prepared to leave, Anais gave her dad a big hug.
The only tension seemed to be between Noel and the dark-haired lad his daughter brought with her, which is no surprise considering how protective Anais claims he is.
Noel has a good relationship with his eldest childShe said last year: “My dad has never given me the birds and the bees chat and doesn’t talk to me about boys. He’s always, ‘I don’t want to talk about it’.
“I remember when me and my stepmum would be talking about boys and he would be like, ‘Stop’. He just doesn’t want to know...
“My dad can stay supportive of my schoolwork instead.”
Most Read in Tv and SHowbiz
Anais is good friends with Madonna's son Rocco Ritchie and David Beckham's son Brooklyn, and she's also dated Reece Bibby from 2015 X Factor boyband Stereo Kicks.
Her mum Meg, 41, is used to posting naked selfies to keep her fans up to date on her fitness routine, as well as posing with her daughter for Instagram.
Dad Noel's pleasant Sunday out follows his bold performance with former foe Damon Albarn on The Graham Norton Show on Friday night.
The Britpop collaborators wanted to send a message to Liam Gallager, who recently said working with Damon had turned his brother into a "massive girl".
Noel, 49, and Liam, 44, have been feuding over their musical projects for years, and seeing Noel work with Damon seems to have been the last straw.
Liam recently wrote online: "That gobs***e out of Blur might have turned Noel Gallagher into a massive girl but believe you me next time I see him there's gonna be war."
But none of that stopped Noel performing one of 49-year-old Damon's new Gorillaz tracks from the album he actually worked on himself, much to Liam's disgust.
He tweeted after the album dropped: "Now that d**k out of blur and the creepy 1 out of oasis need to hang there heads in shame as it's no dancing in the streets."
Noel and Liam's old rock band Oasis had a vicious rivalry with Damon's Blur during the 90s, and Liam isn't willing to let his grudge die yet.
Last year Liam attacked Noel for having "small man's syndrome" because he keeps saying Oasis will "never" reunite.
He ranted: "Our kid’s going around like I’ve stabbed his f***ing cat. He wants to be in a solo band.
"If people think me having a dig on Twitter is what’s stopping the band getting back together, they’re mad...
"When you’re a little geezer and you’ve got small man syndrome, you need that f***ing like ‘no, yeah, no’ [attention].
"I think the minute people stop asking him, he’ll go ‘f***ing hell, what? Are they getting bored of me now?’ So then he’ll get the band back together. So don’t fucking ask him any more.”
If only Noel got on as well with his brother as he does with his kids.

Steven Mann, chairman of the finance department at the University of South Carolina's Moore School of Business, says many of his students have given up on banking jobs.
"In 2005, 2006, 2007, I'd ask, 'Do you want to go work at a bank?', and the answer was always yes," he says. "Now the answer is, no one. They want to be in the treasury department of General Electric."
Citigroup's new CEO, Mike Corbat, hired to turn around a bank that has struggled both since the financial crisis and beforehand, says examining costs and improving efficiency should be "business as usual" and "not just an annual event."
What makes the situation especially harsh is that there were signs in 2010 and 2011 that banks would start hiring. Banks added about 45,600 positions in the United States in 2010 and 2011 combined, according to data from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. In the previous two years, they shed more than three times that many jobs.
Then, last year, job growth was essentially flat. Some observers worry that the turnaround won't happen. The industry's total U.S. workforce of 2.1 million is 105,000 less than it was at its peak in 2007.
Citigroup also is cutting back in lower-growth countries, like Greece and Spain. Germany's Commerzbank and others are laying off branch workers as customers gravitate toward online banking. Barclays is exiting businesses with "reputational risks" after some of its bankers were caught manipulating global interest rates.
Even JPMorgan, generally considered one of the nation's strongest banks, is retrenching. It will cut a net of 17,000 positions, or 6.5 percent of its staff, over the next two years, mostly in the unit that deals with troubled mortgages.

Alex Gibney's haunting and harrowing Winning Best Documentary at the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival "Taxi to the Dark Side". The film opens in theaters on Friday.
Lessons of Darkness (Lektionen in Finsternis)
Dir. Werner Herzog, 1992
Werner Herzog's epic, highly visual documentary, sometimes referred to as a science-fiction film, concentrates on the disaster of the burning Kuwaiti oil fields in the aftermath of the Persian Gulf War. Herzog gracefully presents this hellish landscape through smooth truck-mounted shots and soaring aerial panoramas, seldom providing any sense of scale and giving the blazes a hauntingly majestic, unearthly feel. His narration, delivered from the perspective of a spectator from another planet, is sparse, more poetic and detached than informative; as firemen reignite jets of oil shortly after stopping the fires, he describes them as creatures motivated by madness and a desire to perpetuate the damage they were sent to fix. David Douglas' Fires of Kuwait, also released in 1992, is another more conventional look at the same subject.
Dir. Jehane Noujaim, 2004
Following Startup.com, her acclaimed documentary investigation into the perils of the dot-com boom, Egyptian-born filmmaker Jehane Noujaim turned her attention to the ways reality is managed and constructed through the media. Her focus here was Qatar-based news network Al Jazeera's relationship with and coverage of the American military during the 2003 invasion of Iraq, and how claims and counterclaims of media bias and propaganda underscored the ongoing tug-of-war between the Western and Islamic worlds. The film premiered at Sundance in 2004, and later helped Noujaim win the prestigious TED Prize, enabling her to organize Pangea Day, an international event this May that aims to unite the world through film
My Country My Country
Dir. Laura Poitras, 2005
Laura Poitras' Academy Award-nominated documentary is a unique insider's glimpse into Iraqi life under US occupation. Poitras spent over eight months alone filming in Baghdad, where she followed Dr. Riyadh, a Sunni physician who practices at the Adhamiya Free Clinic. When the US government attempts to institute democratic reforms in Iraq, Dr. Riyadh—himself an Islamic Party candidate for the Baghdad Provincial Council—is torn between supporting the popular boycott of the elections and joining them to support the democracy that could help stabilize his country. For a variety of reasons, including her inexplicable presence filming on a rooftop during an ambush, Poitras was assigned the highest rating on Homeland Security's watchlist after completing the film.
The Dreams of Sparrows
Dir. Haydar Daffar, 2005 First-time Iraqi director Haydar Daffar and his team of American and Iraqi contributing directors (known as the IraqEye Group) spent two years creating The Dream of Sparrows. After Saddam Hussein's capture, Daffar and his crew braved extreme danger to explore the occupation of Iraq through the eyes of those who witnessed it firsthand. Beginning with painters, writers, and filmmakers, the film delves into the arts and culture of Baghdad; later, interviews begin to veer towards the politics of occupation and resistance. The filmmakers are suddenly drawn much further into the subject when producer Sa'ad Fahker is killed during the battle of Fallujah, an event which dramatically impacts the crew's outlook on the situation in Iraq. The first feature documentary project from the IraqEye Group, The Dream of Sparrows was made with the goal of revitalizing Iraqi cinema within the worldwide film community.
No End in Sight
Dir. Charles Ferguson, 2007 On March 19, 2003, forces from the US and other allied nations invaded Iraq, seeking to remove Saddam Hussein from power. Major combat operations were supposed to take only a few months to complete, and just two months later, President George W. Bush declared that they were over. But by the end of 2006, American troops remained deeply involved in a splintered Iraq that was sinking into civil war. The directorial debut of political scientist and former software entrepreneur Charles Ferguson, No End in Sight concentrates on the Bush Administration's conduct of the Iraq war and the decisions that led up to the 2003 invasion, highlighting flawed plans that have not only destabilized Iraq's new government but also turned Iraqi civilians and soldiers against American "aid." The film includes interviews with numerous people who were directly involved in the initial Iraqi occupation, some speaking on camera about the war for the first time. No End in Sight premiered at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival.
Dir. Ian Olds and Garrett Scott, 2005Following a unit of soldiers from the US Army's 82nd Airborne Division, directors Ian Olds and Garrett Scott traveled through the city of Fallujah as soldiers patrolled the community—searching for weapons, interrogating women, and listening to the complaints of locals in their effort to ferret out supporters of Saddam Hussein's regime. In the camp where they are stationed, nicknamed "Dreamland," many soldiers confess to doubts about the mission, wondering if they're any good, what purpose their presence serves, and why they are acting as peacekeepers when they're trained as soldiers. This last concern becomes moot when violence explodes in the city, more than a year after major combat operations were supposed to be over. The film was initially criticized for being too sympathetic towards American soldiers and not critical enough of the war, but it has since gained a following among filmgoers, intellectuals, Iraq veterans, and military families. Scott died of a heart attack in 2005, just days before the film won the Independent Spirit Award.
Turtles Can Fly (Lakposhtha parvaz mikonand)
Dir. Bahman Ghobadi, 2004
The first film made in Iraq after the fall of Saddam Hussein, Turtles Can Fly takes place in a Kurdish refugee camp on the Iraqi-Turkish border on the eve of the US invasion. Thirteen-year-old Satellite—so named for his ability to install satellite dishes for villagers desperate for news—is the leader of the village children, organizing minefield clearing operations and arranging trade-ins for unexploded mines. He falls for an orphan girl named Agrin, who is traveling with her apparently clairvoyant brother, both of whom are caring for a mysterious three-year-old whose connection to them becomes apparent as the war draws closer. Like the Kurdish director's previous films, A Time for Drunken Horses and Turtles Can Fly, this film is a powerful testament to the continued oppression of a people. It won more than a dozen prizes at various film festivals in 2004 and 2005.
Ghosts of Abu Ghraib
Dir. Rory Kennedy, 2007
Built by the British in the 1960s, the prison in the Iraqi city of Abu Ghraib became a torture center for interrogating and murdering political dissidents under Saddam Hussein's Baathist government. After the US invasion in 2003, the American military began using the facility to detain prisoners of war and suspected terrorists. The following year, journalists exposed widespread abuse there, adding a new chapter to the prison's dark history and significantly impacting international attitudes about the war. Through interviews with perpetrators, witnesses, and victims, director Rory Kennedy seeks to reconstruct the stories behind the now-iconic abuse photos that emerged from Abu Ghraib. The film premiered at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival and aired on HBO a month later, subsequently winning an Emmy.
Dir. Philip Haas, 2006
While covering the invasion in Iraq in 2003, American reporter Anna (Connie Nielsen) finds herself caught in a love triangle between a CIA operative (Damian Lewis) and an Iraqi photographer (Mido Manada), whose differing perspectives on the war challenge her loyalties. But when an American soldier throws an Iraqi boy off a bridge (a scene inspired by actual events), it sets off a scandal that polarizes the nation, putting Anna in grave danger as she rushes to cover the story. Nothing is as it seems in the conflict that has become so incomprehensible that the Iraqis only refer to bitterly it as "the situation." The story was written by journalist Wendell Steavenson, based on her experiences covering the war in Iraq for Slate.
Dir. Michael Tucker, 2004
One of the very first documentaries to present a nuanced view of what was happening on the ground in Iraq, Gunner Palace advertised itself as "the war you haven't seen on the news," and it delivered on the promise. Director Michael Tucker spent several months in 2003 and 2004 embedded with an Army artillery unit that had taken up residence in the bombed-out remnants of one of Saddam Hussein's son Uday's pleasure palaces, offering a sympathetic but frank perspective of American soldiers trying to contend with circumstances they'd never anticipated, such as training Iraqi soldiers, keeping peace among warring factions, and most of all, surviving to see another day.
Iraq in Fragments
Dir. James Longley, 2005
Director James Longley's three-act documentary is a tapestry-like exploration of Sunni, Shiite, and Kurdish responses to the first two years of the American occupation, told from the perspective of ordinary Iraqis. Iraq in Fragments' structure highlights the country's sectarian tensions, but the film resolutely avoids editorializing, instead seeking to capture the voices of regular human beings living in an endlessly wartorn land. The film was widely praised for its visual richness, winning multiple awards at Sundance and receiving a nomination at the 2006 Academy Awards, where it lost to An Inconvenient Truth.
Dir. David O. Russell, 1999
Marking a significant shift in direction from his earlier quirky comedies, director David O. Russell's Three Kings offered a strikingly strange and original take on America's role in the first Gulf War. The story of three American soldiers (George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg, and Ice Cube) seeking to seize a cache of looted Kuwaiti gold from an Iraqi bunker after the end of the war, the film also serves as an indictment of American policy in the region. As a result of its unusual subject matter and experimental techniques, not to mention the salacious stories that emerged from the set, Three Kings was prominently featured in two gossipy histories of the indie film "revolution"—Peter Biskind's Down and Dirty Pictures and Sharon Waxman's Rebels on the Backlot.

The Neptune 400 range offer a wider coverage per pack that our standard PVC wall panels. Each pack has three 400mm panels, which cover a width of 1.2m when installed together.
Neptune Silver Metallic panels are printed PVC wall panels with an abstract silver-grey metallic design; the overall effect is a very contemporary style. Suitable for use in any room, not just bathrooms. These wall panels can also be used in commercial settings such as coffee shops or bars.
Don't forget your adhesive and sealants, as well as your floor protector.
To ensure a professional finish, it's important to choose the correct panels. These are all the trims that fit this panel range.
If you're not sure which trims you need, here's a run down of which to use and where.
This trim is used to cover any cut edge at the end of a panel to leave a smooth finish. For instance, it can be used on bathroom walls behind a shower enclosure.
Internal Corner Trim
This trim is used to join two panels as they meet at an internal corner in a room.
External Corner Trim
This trim is used to join two panels when they meet at an external corner in a room.
H / Join Trim
Only required if joining two panels end on end (rather than side on side which is tongue & grove jointed).
An alternative for internal corners and the white quadrant is often used around the shower tray.
Right angles can be used as an internal or external corner. Remember to take note with the chrome version, as this only has one shiny surface and therefore there are two different versions for internal and external.
This a decorative trim used at the intersection of wall and ceiling.
Bath and Shower Tray Trims
This trim provides a water tight seal used at the inter section of panels and shower tray or bath.

“Today, it is still hard to say unequivocally that people and companies named in the Panama Papers stories violated the law, since tax evasion schemes through offshore companies can be pinned down only by control procedures,” Dainoras Bradauskas, head of the State Tax Inspectorate (VMI), has told 15min.lt.
He added that deals or links with offshore companies had always put individuals and businesses on tax inspectors’ radar, making them more likely to be inspected.
“We are under a legal obligation to disclose all information about any control action [undertaken by tax inspectors], but I we would like to assure everyone that all the deals and links of Lithuanian taxpayers mentioned in the Panama Papers will be considered,” Bradauskas said, adding that the VMI is closely following reporting on the Panama Papers.
The Panama Papers are about 11 million documents leaked from the Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca which specializes in setting up offshore companies in tax havens. It has been revealed that many of these companies have been used to evade taxes or circumvent government oversight.
So far, the Lithuanian online newspaper 15min.lt, which has access to the leaked documents, has reported about offshore companies linked to former president of the Lithuanian Football Federation Liutauras Varanavičius.
