The #MeToo movement brought what's been widely called a "reckoning" against men accused of sexual misconduct. But some of Hollywood's most powerful still aren't facing any consequences.
Much of the entertainment elite slammed with allegations — Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey, Charlie Rose — can't find work, and some have even faced legal consequences. Yet for the likes of James Franco, Casey Affleck, and some other men ensnared in #MeToo allegations, not much has changed, The Hollywood Reporter says.
Franco faced five accusations of sexually exploitative behavior in a Jan. 11 Los Angeles Times story. Six months later, it was leaked that he was in talks to direct a Focus Features film about ESPN. And he's still onboard to star in a second season of HBO's The Deuce because "the fact of the matter is that James is in the show," HBO president Casey Bloys told The Hollywood Reporter. "It's business as usual. There is no effort to hide the fact that [Franco] is in the show," Bloys continued.
That's not sufficient for activist website Care2. It successfully petitioned director Matthew Newton, accused of domestic violence, off of the upcoming film Eve, and is hoping to do the same with Franco. "Crisis PR," like what HBO has said to justify Franco's continued employment, is growing even more common, Care2 senior director Rebecca Gerber tells The Hollywood Reporter. "In Hollywood, they make business calls about whether people can make a comeback."
Franco has already skipped out on media appearances for The Deuce, something Gerber says is typical of actors hoping to outlast sexual harassment allegations. They'll disappear for a while, "hoping that it all dies down," she tells The Hollywood Reporter.

Considering I just received the final installment of the Figure Subscription Service this past weekend, I guess it’s about time I get caught up on some of these past reviews. Next two in line are Sure Fire and SKAR leader Iron Klaw, so hit up my G.I. Joe Collectors Club section or click the links below directly.
Gyre Viper and his excellent crew of cast mates have finished and posted the latest episode of the JoeDeclassified Spec Ops (JDSO) Podcast! In this episode, they bite deep into the canceled Nano BAT, Iron Klaw, and even touch on the canceled Crimson Guard figure that was slated to come in the same comic pack as Iron Klaw.
Perhaps the coolest thing about this episode are the accompanied images, which have all been posted over at JoeDeclassified.com. These images show some incredibly awesome detail from the unreleased Iron Klaw, Nano BAT, and Crimson Guard.
Keep in mind, these are not the FSS figures, these samples were canceled figures initially slated to appear in the G.I. Joe 25th Anniversary line (Iron Klaw vs. Crimson Guard Trooper Comic Pack) and the Rise of Cobra line (Nano BAT). The insight in this episode is awesome.
Check it out at JDSO’s Podbean page, and please also check out the accompanying images on JoeDeclassified.com. Some really awesome stuff here. Kudos to these guys for such a great show. Hopefully I’ll be joining them on it soon!
Fans have been asking, and the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club is delivering!
Now that pretty much all of the card art has been revealed, the GIJCC is providing some more great close up shots of the figures that are destined to be released in the Figure Subscription Service. Today, we got a great look at Iron Klaw with his removable beret!
VERY cool. Check out some mirrored images below, but be sure to check out the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club on Facebook for even more details!
I freaking LOVE this figure. The detail work on the facemask is insane. A fantastic looking figure, for sure.
Also of note…the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club has added a Terms and Conditions page for the Figure Subscription Service. No pricing yet (except for the $20 – $25 per figure number that we’ve known about for months) but it’s a very detailed document that should answer some questions out there. Check it out right here.
Wow! Hopefully Joe fans out there are following the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club in all their various iterations, because they unleashed a barrage of sneak previews for artwork from the upcoming FSS (Figure Subscription Service)! These reveals include the full card art for Quarrel and Nano-Bat as well as sneak peeks of Iron Klaw, Jinx, and Topside!
I will say I’ve seen a lot of people talking trash about the artwork as well…and while I’m not necessarily head over heels about the art either, I think the limitations more lie with the source material than with the work being done with it. Let’s all face it, the art we got in the 25th Anniversary line was nothing to fawn over. It took inspiration from the classics, but was not even in the same league with the likes of Dave Dorman. The Club is working with what they have, and in some cases it works, and in some cases it doesn’t, but in my eyes, the biggest limitations are the source images.
Of course, this isn’t true of Jinx, which is based on the awesome City Strike Scarlett by Mike Thompson, but personally, from what I see, the Jinx looks pretty damn good.
Look, I’m not a MOC collector anyway, so it doesn’t impact me much one way or the other, but I do think we need to cut the Club a little slack on this one. They’re working with existing art from the Hasbro libraries that isn’t the best to begin with, and what they’re doing is certainly right on par with what we’ve seen in the 25th Anniversary line already. At least that’s my opinion. We’ve been spoiled by the Pursuit of Cobra stuff and even the Rise of Cobra stuff, which was exponentially better from a package art perspective, but I think these figures are really being designed to blend with the existing 25th Anniversary stuff, and do a perfectly fine job at it.
Aw hells yeah!!
It started earlier this morning when the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club Tweeted about a reveal today for a character that first debuted 25 years ago. But as sometimes happens, plans changed, and they mentioned needing to “Iron out” some details.
Well, that was about all the encouragement I needed as I kept reloading my Twitter client and GIJoeClub.com every 12 seconds until he was finally revealed. The one, the only… Iron Klaw.
Back in ’95 Iron Klaw was the evil mastermind of the G.I. Joe Extreme universe, with a very cool design aesthetic. For whatever complaints folks have about the toys, the cartoon universe of G.I. Joe: Extreme was fascinating, and Iron Klaw was a big part of why.
For this reason, the fans were thrilled when it looked like we might get a comic pack featuring this evil terrorist (although redubbed as a Cobra “Iron Klaw Trooper”). However, as often happens to the G.I. Joe fandom, our hopes were crushed as the movie line took over, and subsequent Anniversary or Resolute styled comic packs vanished into the ether.
But along comes the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club to the rescue, digging the tooling for Iron Klaw out of Hasbro’s vaults and finally giving the fans what they’ve been asking for over the past two years. Can I say they’ve done a fantastic job on it, too? This is one great looking figure, and whether you want to use it as a new Cobra “Iron Klaw Trooper”, or as the malicious Iron Klaw himself, this guy works both ways. I love the detailed weathering on the mask, the new webgear…man, it’s all awesome! Great work.
Kudos, GIJCC, and I think this figure will be just the first step in convincing many folks to sign up for the Sub. For more details on the subscription service, check out GIJoeClub.com. Can’t wait to see more!
Just a few minutes ago I posted about how Joe fans could do themselves a good service by checking out some of the lesser known aspects of G.I. Joe history… and here’s another great way to do it.
Over at HissTank.com, notorious forum member Gyre-Viper has posted some of his holy grail items in his collection. Sure, I think we all knew he was all over the Asian scene, but turns out, he’s got plenty of domestic connections as well! Some very nice pieces in his collection, including an original sculpt for the unproduced Rocky Balboa action figure, a couple of Sigma 6 pieces, and my personal source of jealous rage, the unproduced Iron Klaw test shot.
Do yourself a favor and check it out! I’ve also mirrored the pics below.
Many Joefans likely flocked to Amazon.com to pre-order G.I. Joe: Resolute so they could check out the exclusive unreleased Resolute comic that was available for download with the purchase. GeneralsJoes was among that crowd, and I’m posting a little sneak peek at some of the panels in the comic. I was really pleasently surprised at the book, to be honest…it was written very crisply, with a lot more adult-oriented action than some of the previous releases. The coolest thing is, it gives some insight into the Iron Klaw Troopers and Crimson Troopers. By looking at the panels in the book, it would appear that the Iron Klaw Troopers are meant to be the “cream of the crop” of Cobra troops, even above the esteemed elite Crimson Guard. Heavily utilizing the Iron Klaw look from G.I. Joe: Extreme, they actually mesh into the Cobra hierarchy very well.
As for the Crimson Troopers…at first they appear to simply be offshoots of the Crimson Guard, but at one point, the Iron Klaw Trooper hands one of them a tactical vest, updated helmet, and parachute which almost look to have a strong Resolute Trooper influence. Actually, in one of the panels, the Crimson Trooper looks like it was probably a Resolute Trooper from the neck down with a cool newly sculpted helmet for the head.
Frankly…this is a big bummer, considering this never got released. This could have been a great Resolute Crimson Guard, and I am a humongous fan of the Resolute Trooper tooling. The comic issue shows the Crimson Troopers going through a rigorous training exercise designed to weed out the ineffective and incapable. At the end, one Crimson Trooper remains and we get a glimpse of just how intense Cobra’s training program is. A pretty cool shift, and unlike many of the other Resolute comics, this one actually seems like it could mesh into the Resolute universe fairly well. Check out the mirrored images below.
Mere days after the unreleased Training Snake Eyes was shown on JoeIntel, test shot maestro Gyre-Viper at HissTank.com has shown some pictures of the unreleased “Iron Klaw Trooper” that was initially slated to come with another wave of Comic Packs before the line shifted to a movie theme. Check out the mirrored images below.
This… is awesome. From what I’ve seen there hasn’t been much unreleased stuff that has really made me sad that it won’t make it to retail. Resolute stuff aside of course (which looks to be coming in a boxed set in 2010). But this Iron Klaw Trooper? Damn, man. I love it. I was a big fan of the Extreme universe, but the figures were horrible, it’s freaking great to see those characters worked into the Anniversary line, even with just a new head, beret, weapon, and webgear. The base figure looks to be an Iron Grenadier Destro. Regardless of all this, the figure is very cool, and I hope Hasbro finds some way to work this tooling into the Pursuit of COBRA line. I really love the face sculpt and skull-themed webgear. Very cool figure.
He also showcased some images from the upcoming Pursuit of COBRA Arctic Destro, which is another pretty neat one. Those ice-cased accessories are pretty cool and the sculpt is great. Check out those images below.

Karunanidhi on BJP coming to power
DMK president M Karunanidhi today said he could not help thinking there won't be any danger if the BJP came to power at the Centre.
Responding to questions here, Mr Karunanidhi, when asked if there would be great danger if the BJP captured power at the Centre, said he cannot discount such a thought.
Asked about Modi wave, Mr Karunanidhi said he did not think there was such a phenomenon in Tamil Nadu.
On promulgation of prohibitory orders throughout the state, Mr Karunanidhi said he would not be able to comment now on the intentions behind such orders.
On anti-minority comments by VHP international leader Praveen Togadia and others, Mr Karunanidhi said such comments would lead to minorities living in an atmosphere of fear.
It would sow the seeds for communal conflagration. Under these circumstances, his view was to form a secular government at the Centre.

Solar Energy, Vol.189, 207-218, 2019
The effect of in-situ and post deposition annealing towards the structural optimization studies of RF sputtered SnS and Sn2S3 thin films for solar cell application
Optimization studies towards the formation of single phase orthorhombic SnS and Sn2S3 thin films are independently achieved using SnS target in RF magnetron sputtering by varying the RF power, in-situ and post deposition vacuum annealing temperature. Micro structural analyses confirmed the role of in-situ annealing at 400 degrees C for the columnar growth formation of single phase SnS nanostructures which is an important aspect towards the fabrication of SnS based thin film solar cells with improved efficiency. Further, SnS to Sn2S3 phase transition is observed at 500 degrees C. The observed variations in the optical properties such as band edge shift, direct energy band gap (Eg), absorption coefficient (alpha), extinction coefficient (K) and refractive index (n) of the films are correlated with the structural and morphological analysis. Electrical studies along with band gap measurement further confirmed the transition from p-type SnS phase having a band gap value of 1.55 eV with resistivity as 1280 Omega cm to n-type Sn2S3 with band gap value of 1.06 eV and resistivity of 0.864 Omega cm.

The War on Wolf
Ever since Time magazine revealed that Al Gore has been paying feminist writer Naomi Wolf to consult at the tune of $15,000 a month, obsession with Wolf -- her politics, her looks, the content of her campaign advice -- has consumed all channels of the nation's political discourse. Why?Is it because Ms. Wolf is radical? She's gotten into hot water with her last book, "Promiscuities," for recommending that teenagers masturbate rather than have sex. Now, why is this considered radical or even controversial? I'm willing to bet $1,000 that if every parent in America were injected with truth serum, they would agree with Wolf's common sense approach to reducing teen pregnancy and the spread of disease. Wolf's "crime" has been to speak about sex in an honest way.Conservatives, who almost always take the improbable stance when it comes to sex, have long felt morally obligated to lie about their sexual attitudes (let alone their sexual behavior!) and to punish anyone who isn't willing to condemn any and all sex that isn't for the purpose of producing children within the confines of a marriage.What's galling about their reaction to Wolf and the mainstream media's focus on her Gore consultancy is that they have insisted Wolf is offering only "non-political" advice -- about Gore's clothes, his accessories and his psycho-sexual status. (Meredith Berkeman of the New York Post flatly asserts that Wolf picked out all of Gore's new clothes, even though Wolf denies so much as even commenting on a single tie.) Is it not probable that Gore hired Wolf because she has her pulse on American women's likes and dislikes -- and I'm talking beyond clothes?The only sure "bet" is that when there is an opportunity to smear a feminist or a liberal or a Gore consultant, then the Post and much of the mass media will run with it -- the facts be damned. Of course, it's important to get the facts straight if a biographer writes something critical on George Bush. But if the whole media establishment wants to create a Wolf caricature out ofthin air, well that's just good fun.What's the real reason for the war on Wolf? She is in serious violation of conservative theology. Psalm II:15 in the Conservative Bible clearly states, in the words of spokesman Rush Limbaugh, "Feminism is a club for ugly women who can't attract men or be a part of 'normal' society" (I'm not making this up folks, Rush has said this thousands of times).The problem with Wolf for conservatives? She's smart, beautiful and tough-talking. Her existence, for them, is the equivalent of bringing a globe to a Flat Earth Society meeting.Conservatives, who have always had a much better understanding of how the media works, correctly view Wolf as a horrible threat. If Wolf were on national TV more often, she would be a major force. If Wolf had a daily TV pulpit like a pre-candidate Pat Buchanan, every woman in America would call herself a feminist and the conservative movement would suffer accordingly.I've never met Wolf or talked to her in private; she may be a wretched monster. But I have seen her speak in public and she is a master on par with Bill Clinton. Her speaking manner is lively, charming, insightful, provocative and note-free. Gore should pay her twice her old $15,000-a-month salary if she can turn him into half the speaker she is.As a talking head on TV shows, Wolf is a star. Her Rhodes Scholar reasoning comes thorough in a way that is extremely likeable. The second some conservative attacks Wolf and other feminists for being "anti-male" or "abnormal," all Wolf has to do is smile and start talking; her opponents are instantly exposed as dithering fools and hypocrites.The mainstream political establishment also hates Wolf for being what they consider "normal" in so many ways. The conservative punditocracy loves the fact that Patricia Ireland, head of the National Organization for Women, has both a husband and a wife. They adore the fact that Gloria Steinem "has never caught a man or had kids." This makes these feminists "different" and easy to ridicule. The conservative movement has made a lot of hay over the fact that Molly Yard and Eleanor Smeal are considered by many to be physically unattractive.So it drives them crazy that Wolf can be happily married with one child and another on the way. It would be so much easier to ridicule her ideas if only she hated men. Instead she writes compelling books and advises the president on half the population.The Politically Correct War on Wolf will continue. After all, it's so much more fun to talk about than plane crashes, violent shootings or the fact that George Bush doesn't know the name of a single world leader.

I love plants! Anyone else? They are so amazing when you stop to really think about it. From a tiny seed can grow a big luscious plant that nourishes, heals, repairs, energizes, and feeds our bodies! Plants have been used as herbal medicine since the beginning of time and we need to get back to tapping into that wisdom that nature provides us so abundantly. I want to start this Powerful Plants series with a plant that is often overlooked and thought of as a nuisance weed. Enter the almighty Dandelion.
Dandelions start growing in the spring and serve as the first food for our precious bees and they continue to grow throughout the summer. This hearty plant grows EVERYWHERE-which many people are not so happy about. However, I believe that if we all embraced dandelions and used them to better our bodies we would all be much happier.
Every single part of this plant can be used: the roots are used for tea (my absolute favourite!) and coffee substitute, the highly nutritious leaves can be eaten, the stem is used in tinctures, the flowers are used to make wine, tea and oil and once it starts to seed, it becomes a granter of childhood wishes!
The health benefits of dandelion are plentiful:
-High in vitamin C and Calcium for good bone health
-Excellent for liver health
-Helps to eliminate toxins from the kidneys and urinary tract because of its diuretic nature
-High in antioxidants
-Helps treat and heal skin conditions
-High in iron, fibre and vitamin A
Dandelion Oil is an amazing moisturizer for the whole body and is a great choice for full body massage because it helps to release tension and stress stored in the muscles. The oil is also great for sore muscles and joints and also useful for those suffering with arthritis!
You can purchase the oil of course, or you can take advantage of the huge supply that nature has provided for free right in your backyard.
Here’s how to make your own Dandelion Oil!
First, you’ll need to collect a lot of dandelion flowers. My kids loved doing this; Bonus! We collected just under a pint of flowers because they shrink down quite a bit.
Rinse the flowers very gently to remove any dirt or creatures.
Spread the flowers on a cloth and allow to dry for a day or so. They will shrink as they dry.
Next, place the dried up flowers into a small, clean mason jar and put enough organic olive oil in to cover the flowers. Put the jar on a window sill and allow the sun to help with the infusion process. Leave it to infuse for several weeks up to 6 weeks.
Finally, when your dandelion oil is ready, strain it through a cheesecloth into a new clean mason jar. Squeeze it really well to make sure you get all the goodness out of it!
Use it for all your families soreness issues and share it with those you love!
Have you ever made dandelion oil or any other herbal infusions? Let me know if you try this!
Until next time,
Pin it for later!

‘Hidden away in the Record Department of the sprawling Ministry of Truth, Winston Smith skilfully rewrites the past to suit the needs of the Party. Yet he inwardly rebels against the totalitarian world he lives in, which demands absolute obedience and controls him through the all-seeing telescreens and the watchful eye of Big Brother, the symbolic head of the Party. In his longing for truth and liberty, Smith begins a secret love affair with a fellow-worker, Julia, but soon discovers the true price of freedom is betrayal.’
‘1984‘ is a novel I’ve avoided for a long time. It’s the sort of famous work that almost everyone has heard of and most people have a vague idea of what it’s about, whether they’ve read it or not. I think, considering it’s such an important and well respected book in the canon, that I’ve always thought it would be a difficult book to read. I considered it as one of those books that it’s better to read at school because you can study it properly and fully understand everything Orwell is trying to get across. The thing is though, I was unbelievably wrong. This book is probably one of the easiest books to get through I’ve ever read.
Not that it was over simplistic or bad, just that Orwell is such a fantastic writer that I didn’t feel as though I needed to fight to understand him at any stage. It was all there, clearly written on the page in black and white. In fact, it was a thoroughly enjoyable read and I have to be honest, reading ‘1984‘ was the most fun I’ve had reading a book in a while. The story of Winston Smith was so engaging and the world so realistic and, to an extent, inviting, that I honestly couldn’t put the book down. It’s the quickest I’ve gone through a book in a while and it was no struggle to sit down for hours on end and just read. Lately I’ve been having trouble keeping my attention on anything for more than around 20 minutes but this book had be so absorbed and entertained that 20 minutes wasn’t nearly long enough.
Everyone knows ‘1984‘ as some form of dreadful prediction and warning of the perils of the seemingly impending totalitarian society. It’s difficult to pay attention to the news without some form of reference every now and again to a situation being ‘positively Orwellian’. And if I had a penny for every time I heard the phrase ‘1984 was a warning, not a blueprint’ then I’d be considerably better off than I am now. The thing is, one of the reasons the book is so well known is not just because the world of Oceania struck a chord with us, but that anyone reading the book can recognise aspects of the Big Brother government in their own which adds huge layers of meanings while reading the novel. For myself, I was struck by the Ministry of Truth and their control of the media and the past. The famous Winston Churchill quote, “history will be kind to me for I intend to write it”, was swimming round my head during every scene at Smith’s desk.
Basically, I loved the book. Really loved it. It’s easily become one of my favourite books ever. And not just because I love the idea of dystopia v. Utopia and stories that show how a change of government/ideals can lead to such a vastly different society. The argument of whether the Party would be able to succeed in their long term plan, or whether Winston’s desperate assertion that human nature would right itself and cause the downfall of the Party could really work is fascinating. Not only does this novel manage to deal with complex but exciting ideas, but it does so with realistic and interesting characters all while being beautifully written. Orwell’s world is so well rounded and palpable that when you’re reading the book you feel as though you were really transported there.
It’s an absolutely stunning book that I know I will return to many times. Very thought provoking and a clear example of the very best of British literature.

Nokia to Bear the Brunt of Microsoft Layoffs
The news that Microsoft plans to cut around 18,000 jobs over the next year will have profound consequences for Nokia, the Finnish handset maker that was acquired by Microsoft in September 2013. This round of layoffs alone – the biggest ever in Microsoft’s history – will see 12,500 Nokia employees let go.
One notable result is that the Nokia X smartphone, which originally ran on Android, will now run on the Windows Phone operating system as part of Microsoft’s plan to make inroads into the budget handset market.
“We plan to shift select Nokia X product designs to become Lumia products running Windows. This builds on our success in the affordable smartphone space and aligns with our focus on Windows Universal Apps,” said Satya Nadella, who was appointed CEO of Microsoft earlier this year.
The Nokia X was announced in February 2014 and was the first Nokia handset to use Android, albeit a heavily customised version of the OS without the Google Play app store – instead offering an array of Microsoft and Nokia apps.

Get ready for one of the most compelling and controversial comeback stories in some time.
Darius Miles hasn’t played since the end of the 2005-06 season.
The newest member of the Boston Celtics, Darius Miles, is attempting to return to the NBA after a two-year absence, almost two years after a microfracture procedure on his injured right knee and after a doctor declared the injury to be career-ending. If Miles is successful to any measurable degree, and that is still up in the air, he will create some financial havoc in Portland, his previous NBA stop, not to mention extract some $18 million out of Trail Blazer owner Paul Allen’s petty cash drawer.
No player has done what the 26-year-old Miles is attempting to do. The Trail Blazers waived him last April 14 after the diagnosis from an independent doctor deemed his knee injury to be such that his career was over. That’s usually a death sentence. But Miles didn’t buy it then and he certainly doesn’t buy it now. Neither do the Celtics or their medical people.
“It was more that the situation was so bad in Portland,’’ Miles said in a recent interview. “I knew I could still play. I knew I still had the ability. I didn’t want it to go that way. The whole situation out there (Portland) drained me, energy-wise. I didn’t really care about playing any more. There was all this stuff other than basketball. I thought it was supposed to be about a basketball.
“I have a son,’’ he went on, referring to his 8-month old. “I want him to see me play. So I wanted another try. If I put it all out there and it doesn’t work, then I’ll have done all I can.”
The Celtics are investing very little in Miles – a non-guaranteed veteran minimum – for a couple reasons: they don’t have to (Miles is still collecting his $9 million-per-year salary bestowed on him by the Blazers, although insurance covers as much as 85 percent of it); and basketball boss Danny Ainge says the low risk-high reward nature of the deal is a no-brainer.
“He picked us," Ainge said of Miles. “Where we are now and the stability we have allows us to take a chance on him.”
Miles did, indeed, pick the Celtics for a number of reasons. He has long idolized Kevin Garnett; he followed Garnett when Garnett played at Farragut Academy in Chicago and Miles lived downstate in East St. Louis. The two of them were on the cover of Sports Illustrated before Miles ever played a game in the NBA. He thinks he can be a sixth-man replacement for the departed James Posey, although they have different styles. He wants to win; the next playoff game he appears in will be his first. He has heard good things about Doc Rivers and developed a real interest in the Celtics from watching them play last season while he was on Portland’s inactive list, rehabbing and trying to get back on the floor.
Plus, there’s the history.
“I would have come here (to Boston) for $5 and a bag of Doritos," he said. “A guy who was told he had a career-ending injury and ends up on the team that just won a championship? And the only way I do that is if I’m playing, and that means I’m healthy? I made the champs’ team? It doesn’t get any better than that.
“Coming into this gym is like walking into history," he continued. “As soon as you come here, you feel it. You see these old-school pictures of Red Auerbach and Bill Russell. And it’s the only practice facility I’ve seen that has (championship) banners. I want to be whatever they want me to be. I want to be a part of this team. This is the ultimate situation. I would have played on this team whether I got a check or not.”
Miles’ agent, Jeff Wechsler, said there was a lot of interest in his client and a few workouts as well. (The New Jersey Nets were one of the teams who had Miles in.) Many of them were willing to offer Miles more than $5 and a bag of Doritos.
“He could have gotten more money, guaranteed money, but he didn’t want that," Wechsler said. “In this case, it really wasn’t about the money. He’s getting paid (by Portland.) Boston is where he wanted to go. He’s in a situation where he can win. He’s around a good group of guys. That’s key.”
(If and when Miles is able to play, he will have to sit out 10 games due to a suspension for violating the league’s drug policy. The NBA has not officially announced the suspension, which was first reported by The Oregonian.)
Watching this unfold with more than your ordinary degree of interest are the basketball folks in Portland. A successful Miles return (10 or more games either this year or next year) would force the Blazers to add Miles’ full salary on their cap. It currently is off because of the doctor’s diagnosis. That’s $9 million this year and next year for a guy playing on someone else’s team. A Blazers spokesman said Kevin Pritchard, Portland’s general manager, was on vacation and unavailable for comment.
The Clippers had hoped Miles, second from left, would become a centerpiece of their talented, young roster.
Miles’ last game as a Blazer was on April 15, 2006. He had returned from an arthroscopic procedure on his right knee earlier in that season, probably sooner than he should have. When he returned to camp in the fall, the knee was still giving him problems and he underwent the serious microfracture procedure in November. That ended the 2006-07 season. But he missed all of last season as well, even though his personal trainer/strength-and-conditioning coach, Robin Pound, said all the progress reports presented to the Portland medical team were positive.
“At our last meeting," Pound recalled, “they told Darius, ‘the only thing left now is for you to go back to the team.”
Pound had been hired by Portland in 2007 to specifically rehab Miles. He had him for several months. The Blazers let Pound go last December, a week after a final meeting with Portland’s medical team. But Miles never did go back to the team. He had an Achilles’ strain which set him back. When the Blazers finally waived Miles, he reconnected with Pound in Phoenix, enduring two-a-day workouts, the first of which started at 7 a.m.
“I was testing his commitment, his drive, his hunger, as much as anything," Pound said. “I wanted to see if he really, really wanted it, how much he was willing to sacrifice. I had him for three months, so you could say he passed those tests. If he hadn’t been willing, I would have thrown him out of the gym and run him out of town. But he did everything I asked him to do.”
Pound said the Darius Miles who hooked up with him in April was not the same Darius Miles he had left in Portland five months earlier. He was not in the same shape. His conditioning needed to be addressed. After three months, Pound said, he had done everything he could do for Miles.
Pound said Miles was able to touch the white square on the backboard jumping off either leg, with there being only a slight difference when he took off from his left leg. Most healthy NBA players can’t do that, Pound said, because they have one dominant jumping leg.
“But after everything we did, we still don’t know if it will translate into playing five-on-five, NBA-style basketball," Pound said. “He hasn’t done that in two years.”
No one needs to remind Miles of that gap in his career. He had been the high school-to-NBA can’t-miss star when the Los Angeles Clippers drafted him No. 3 overall in 2000, then the highest-ever pick for a high-school player. But the Clippers didn’t win and Miles was soon traded to Cleveland. The Cavs didn’t win, either, and he was soon traded to Portland.
The Blazers not only didn’t win, but a group of them were also miscreants off the floor. Miles is most remembered for a celebrated cussing-out of former coach Maurice Cheeks in 2005 which resulted in a team-imposed, two-game suspension. But Miles was lumped into the group known as the Jail Blazers – some of it because of his own actions, which he admits – and he knows that he’s fighting to redeem a reputation almost as much as he is to recover from a knee injury.
“I’ve been on both sides," Miles said. “I’ve been where I can do no wrong, where my jersey is selling top-five, doing movies, commercials, in the limelight. Once I turned down the limelight because I didn’t really like it, I got portrayed as a bad guy. Anyone who knows me knows I’m not a bad guy.
“That team (Portland) wanted to move on, away from me, and once that happened, I understood and let it be. That whole situation was a negative situation and I went through it for four years. It’s tiring. I want to hear some positive stuff. I don’t ever remember a bad article being written about me until I got to Portland. I’m not saying it’s a bad place. It’s a great organization. I love (owner) Paul Allen. Larry Miller, the president, a great guy. The players are great. It just didn’t work out. One little thing turned into a big thing. They didn’t want me. And I don’t want to be where I’m not wanted. Danny Ainge gave me a chance to redeem myself.”

Authoritarian Successor Parties, Supporters, and Protest: Lessons from Asian Democracies
Open lecture with Myunghee Lee, Postdoctoral Fellow at NIAS
Are authoritarian successor party (ASP) supporters more likely to protest? I propose that ASP supporters are less likely to protest in general. The post-democratization mobilization environment is shaped upon the pre-democratization mobilization basis. During the pre-democratization period, protest was organized around the democracy movement. Thus, protest tactics and networks were accumulated through it. As former authoritarian ruling party supporters, ASP supporters are less likely to have legacies of participating in the democracy movement, which prevents them from accessing the accumulated protest resources from the democracy movement. However, I argue that this negative association varies based on the ASP qualities and supporters’ age. Supporters of ASPs that maintain strong pre-democratization legacies are more likely to participate in protests than supporters of ASPs that do not strongly highlight their authoritarian legacies. Also, when the ASPs’ characteristics are considered, older ASP supporters are more likely to participate in protests than younger supporters. Using both single-level and multilevel statistical analyses, I examine four Asian countries with politically powerful ASPs and find evidence supporting my hypotheses. Lastly, I compare two South Korean mass movements, the Candlelight Movement and the Teageukgi Rallies to unpack the relationships between ASP supporters, protest resources, and mobilization. This study reveals authoritarian legacies among post-democratization citizens through ASP supporters’ protesting behavior.
Myunghee Lee is a Postdoctoral Fellow at NIAS. She also is a Nonresident Fellow at the Center for International Trade and Security at the University of Georgia. Her research focuses on protest, authoritarian politics, and democratization. Her regional focus is on China and the Korean Peninsula. Her postdoctoral project is a comparative study on the persistence of authoritarian legacies in South Korea and Poland. Her work appears in journals such as International Security, International Studies Review, Journal of East Asian Studies, Politics & Gender.

When Looking at Your Credit and Borrowing, Keep Your Options Open and Budget on Track
saving-money | Read Time: 3 minutes
By Susan List | Published: October 2021
These days, consumers are not short on options for their borrowing needs. Whether remodeling a home, buying a boat, consolidating debt, paying for a wedding or simply looking to establish and build your credit history, there are loan products designed for various uses and with terms that can help fit many budgets.
While determining which loans are best for certain uses and budgets can seem overwhelming, there are some basic steps you can take to sort through your options and manage your finances wisely.
Speak With Your Banker
A thorough review of your accounts, budget, income and financial goals is a great first step.
Your banker can help with this review and provide guidance on the best options. For example, if you are just starting to build credit and want to establish a good history for later large purchases, opening a rewards credit card can be a great step.
Develop a plan to only use the credit card for certain purchases that you would normally use cash or your debit card for, then set that money aside to pay the credit card bill in full each month. That way, you’re establishing good credit history and not accumulating revolving debt.
Have a Plan
If your credit is more established and you are looking for a lower interest option for a large purchase or debt consolidation, a personal loan may be a good fit.
Personal loans are unsecured, meaning you do not need collateral to get the money you need, and are set for a fixed amount that you pay back over a set amount of time. These terms can help you determine how much you can afford to pay back over the life of the loan.
A personal loan can be an especially good option for homeowners wanting to remodel but do not have enough equity built up for a home equity loan. Personal loans are good for smaller projects, too, as you can borrow as little as $2,000.
Other options for those with home equity or a savings nest egg could be a home equity loan or line of credit (HELOC), or to take out a smaller loan for a project while also using cash.
The key is to plan a strategy that best uses your financial standing and expected future expenses as a guide.
Protect Your Future Finances
Part of your plan should also include preparing for emergencies. When determining how much you need (and should) borrow, consider your emergency savings status as well.
Make sure whatever amount you borrow and the terms don’t overextend your budget, leaving you in a precarious position if a medical or other emergency arises that you can’t immediately afford.
It’s important to avoid racking up credit card debt or using a high interest “payday” loan, as both can create a cycle that can hurt your finances and your credit.
Protect Your Credit
Every year, Americans are entitled to a free credit report from each of the three major credit bureaus, Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. Make sure you receive these reports and thoroughly review them. If you notice any discrepancies, report them immediately.
You can also set up banking and fraud alerts through your bank’s mobile or online site, as well as for any credit card accounts you have, to help monitor and protect your credit.
Taking these steps can help ensure that whatever stage of borrowing you are in currently, you can continue to maintain healthy credit building and your financial future.

An asado with Pedro Sanchez
I've been looking forward to this post. The film celebrates an exceptionally happy and enjoyable tango evening in Buenos Aires, an asado with Pedro Sanchez, organised so we could film him dancing. In fact he seemed much more interested in teaching, but the film of the evening as a whole, and the brief moments of his dance, were so good that it seemed a real waste not to put it all together as a short film. I'm also happy to have put together something resembling a film, rather than just uploading videos of performances.
Moreover, YouTube tells me that I've been uploading clips for two years this month, and that this one is my 50th! Celebrations all round. Hope you enjoy the asado.
PS. The section of Pedro talking actually lasts about 40 minutes, a fascinating story of his life in tango and in Buenos Aires. I hope we can YouTube it, or at least some longer extracts from it, in the not-too-distant future. It's full of stories, and thoughts about tango as dance and music.


The energy deficit and dependence on fossil fuels drove the Dominican Republic to step up its commitment to energy. To this regard, Dominion took on the task of building the largest photovoltaic plant in this Caribbean country, with an offer that included everything from the design and construction of the plant to its operation and subsequent maintenance. The project included various additional challenges:
- The project completion deadline was only 11 months.
- The plant plot, a small area of 90 hectares, with little margin to coordinate construction and the stockpiling of materials and almost 201,000 solar panels that form the plant
- Logistical and supply challenges: there are not many energy, logistics and supply infrastructures.
- The weather: the rainy season brings torrential rain from May to November, which complicates vehicle traffic, construction and operations.
- Lack of specialist labour.
Dominion managed the turnkey project starting with complete planning work with the intention of implementing the project with maximum efficiency ratios. This meant that the following actions could be performed in the construction stage:
- Designing a work plan, based on experience from previous projects and specific characteristics of the case so as to coordinate the various activities with logistics to minimise waiting times.
- Building a water channel network to evacuate torrential rainfall in the area and to prevent any flooding that could cause delays and subsequent damage to equipment in the production stage.
- Dividing the area into sectors for careful coordination of the construction work and the panel stockpiling tasks, and to carry out both tasks simultaneously.
- Building a concrete plant at the construction site to prevent any concrete delays in supplies from local suppliers.
- Building a road for access to the worksite.
- Creating a personnel rotation plan to guarantee staff are on site at all times.
The largest photovoltaic plant in the Dominican Republic, with 66.8MWp of installed capacity, was inaugurated within a year of its construction being started. Thanks to the success of this project, Dominion has positioned itself as a benchmark collaborator for the 12 electricity generation projects that are expected to be awarded in the country soon.
The photovoltaic plant is estimated to cover the energy consumption demand of almost 80,000 people in the region and that it will prevent the emission of 50,000 tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere.
Dominion will perform the operation and maintenance tasks at the plant for the next 20 years.

Thus, embryonic stem cells are likely to be easier to isolate and grow ex vivo than adult stem cells. The discovery of adult stem cells led scientists to develop an interest in the role of embryonic stem cells, and in separate studies in Gail Martin and Martin Evans derived pluripotent stem cells from the embryos of mice for the first time.
Scientists are also exploring ways to stimulate self-repair, coaxing stem cells in the human body to generate healthy cells to heal damaged tissue from within or to prevent further damage. They are responsible for production of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.
In addition, it is worth pointing out that even adult stem cell research is controversial, insofar as stem cell research in general has the potential to lead to human cloning. This new type of stem cell, called induced pluripotent stem cells iPSCswill be discussed in a later section of this document.
Embryos used in medical research for stem cells are well below development that would enable viability. Again, as has been noted above, significantly greater ethical dilemmas inhere to research with embryonic stem cells than to research with adult stem cells.
Matapurkar gets US patent for surgical procedure for organ regeneration - Patents". In some adult tissues, such as bone marrow, muscle, and brain, discrete populations of adult stem cells generate replacements for cells that are lost through normal wear and tear, injury, or disease.
To study normal human development. In the United States alone, an estimated at leastsuch embryos exist. Because many of the restrictions placed on stem cell research have been based on moral dilemmas surrounding the use of embryonic cells, there will likely be rapid advancement in the field as the techniques that created those issues are becoming less of a necessity.
Learn more about clinical translation, the process through which science becomes medicine, here. The basic point here would be that human beings are engaging with a dangerous power that may be intimately connected with the very origins of life itself.
The journal thus maintains the highest standards in terms of quality and comprehensive in its approach. In the future, most medical researchers anticipate being able to use technologies derived from stem cell research to treat a variety of diseases and impairments.
For example, transplantation of healthy retinal pigment epithelial cells to the eye to replace those lost in macular degeneration is now being tested in clinical trials.

Stem cell transplants for patients with illnesses such as leukemia Trials with human beings with degeneration of the eyes Experiments with mice regarding the regeneration of heart tissue The cloning of embryonic stem cells which would avert the need to harvest new stem cells from new embryos Clearly, the scientific progress over the past several years gives great cause for hope.
A single totipotent stem cell can give rise to an entire organism. To put it a little differently: Stem cell research is thus a highly partisan issue, and it is likely to remain that way over the foreseeable future. Again, given that the potential of stem cell research is directly correlated with the plasticity of the stem cells in question, it logically follows that there will be an increasing push by scientists to focus research on embryonic stem cells if at all possible, due to the fact that they have greater plasticity than adult stem cells and thus greater potential to contribute to medical breakthroughs.
Other recent discoveries may extinguish the need for embryonic stem cells. If this were the case, then the manufacture of embryos simply for the purpose of destroying them would be horrific, insofar the destruction of each embryo would then be morally and conceptually equivalent to murder.
Both lithium and umbilical cord blood are widely available therapies that have long been used to treat diseases in humans. For instance, the virus used to coax regular cells into pluripotent stem cells could lead to cellular mutations that could, in turn, cause cancer in patients.
Hematopoietic stem cells are considered multipotent as they can differentite into red blood cells, platelets, white blood cells but they cannot differentiate into hepatocytes or brain cells. Currently there is no universal method for preserving stem cells and the existing methods are expensive.
Embryonic stem cells make up a significant proportion of a developing embryo, while adult stem cells exist as minor populations within a mature individual e. Works Cited American Medical Association. As ESCs are pluripotent, they can differentiate into any cell type.

Re-writing the blues songbook!
The Eric Street Band was formed by me, Dennis Siggery, with Neil Sadler, my songwriting partner, guitar player and producer. I'd been singing in blues bands for years, doing the circuit, playing the blues classics. Great songs, yes, but so many bands are out there doing the same numbers...
We decided, in the blues tradition, to try and put our own stories to songs, and we have now made over eight albums worth of original songs about life as we see it, living here in the UK.
We've had great reviews for both the live shows, and the CDs. Our album Company Man was voted album of the year by 'Blues In Britain' magazine. And our music has been played all over the world...
The Eric Street Band are without a doubt one of the finest Blues / Rock bands to come along in a very long time.
You listen to one of their CDs and you will be hooked by the pure honesty of this marvellous blues band... you won't be disappointed

Die schiere Menge sprengt die Möglichkeiten der Buchpublikation, die komplexe, vieldimensionale Struktur einer vernetzten Informationsbasis ist im Druck nicht nachzubilden, und schließlich fügt sich die Dynamik eines stetig wachsenden und auch stetig zu korrigierenden Materials nicht in den starren Rhythmus der Buchproduktion, in der jede erweiterte und korrigierte Neuauflage mit unübersehbarem Aufwand verbunden ist. Eine Buchpublikation könnte stets nur die Momentaufnahme einer solchen Datenbank, reduziert auf eine bestimmte Perspektive, bieten. Auch das kann hin und wieder sehr nützlich sein, aber dadurch wird das Problem der Publikation des Gesamtmaterials nicht gelöst.
The sheer quantity exceeds the possibilities of book publication, the complex, multidimensional structure of a networked information base cannot be reproduced in print, and finally the dynamic of a constantly growing and constantly correcting material does not fit into the rigid rhythm of book production, in which each expanded and corrected new edition is associated with an incalculable amount of effort. A book publication could only offer a snapshot of such a database, reduced to a specific perspective. This too can be very useful from time to time, but it does not solve the problem of publishing the entire material.
While the writing criticism of "dumping out one's zettelkasten" into a paper, journal article, chapter, book, etc. has been reasonably frequent in the 20th century, often as a means of attempting to create a linear book-bound context in a local neighborhood of ideas, are there other more complex networks of ideas which we're not communicating because they don't neatly fit into linear narrative forms? Is it possible that there is a non-linear form(s) based on network theory in which more complex ideas ought to better be embedded for understanding?
Some of Niklas Luhmann's writing may show some of this complexity and local or even regional circularity, but perhaps it's a necessary means of communication to get these ideas across as they can't be placed into linear forms.
One can analogize this to Lie groups and algebras in which our reading and thinking experiences are limited only to local regions which appear on smaller scales to be Euclidean, when, in fact, looking at larger portions of the region become dramatically non-Euclidean. How are we to appropriately relate these more complex ideas?
What are the second and third order effects of this phenomenon?
An example of this sort of non-linear examination can be seen in attempting to translate the complexity inherent in the Wb (Wörterbuch der ägyptischen Sprache) into a simple, linear dictionary of the Egyptian language. While the simplicity can be handy on one level, the complexity of transforming the entirety of the complexity of the network of potential meanings is tremendously difficult.

Can it be?! Twyla Tharp has an entire chapter in her book on creativity that covers a variation of the zettelkasten note taking concept!!!
Does the phrase "thinking outside of the box" make a tacit nod to the idea of using a card index (or the German zettelkasten) for note taking, sense making, and thinking?

Moda Uñas Acrilicas
Are you looking to stay on-trend with the latest nail fashion? If so, then moda uñas acrílicas, or acrylic nail fashion, is definitely worth exploring. Acrylic nails have become increasingly popular in recent years, offering a wide range of stylish and eye-catching designs that can be customized to suit your personal style. From intricate patterns and vibrant colors to subtle pastels and elegant neutrals, there’s no shortage of options when it comes to acrylic nails.
One of the main advantages of moda uñas acrílicas is their durability. Unlike natural nails that can easily chip or break, acrylic nails are known for their strength and resilience. They provide a sturdy base for nail art and extensions, allowing you to experiment with different shapes and lengths without worrying about damage. Whether you prefer short and chic or long and glamorous, acrylic nails can help you achieve the look you desire.
In addition to their durability, another appealing aspect of moda uñas acrílicas is their versatility. With endless possibilities for creativity, acrylic nails offer a canvas for expressing your individuality. You can choose from various finishes like glossy or matte, add embellishments such as rhinestones or glitter, or opt for unique designs like ombre gradients or geometric patterns. The flexibility of acrylic nails allows you to switch up your style whenever inspiration strikes.
So if you’re looking to elevate your nail game and make a fashionable statement, consider trying out moda uñas acrílicas. With their durability and versatility, they offer endless opportunities for expressing your personal style while staying on top of the latest trends in nail fashion.
Choosing the Right Acrylic Nails
When it comes to moda uñas acrilicas, choosing the right acrylic nails is crucial for achieving the perfect look. With so many options available in terms of colors, shapes, and designs, it can be overwhelming to make a decision. But fear not! I’m here to guide you through the process and help you find the ideal acrylic nails for your style.
- Consider Your Lifestyle: The first step in choosing acrylic nails is to consider your lifestyle. Are you constantly on-the-go or do you have a more relaxed routine? If you lead an active lifestyle, shorter and more practical nail shapes like square or round may be a better fit. On the other hand, if you have fewer restrictions and love experimenting with different styles, longer and bolder nail shapes like stiletto or coffin could be your go-to choice.
- Nail Shape: The shape of your natural nails also plays a role in selecting acrylic nails. If you have naturally short and wide nails, opting for shorter lengths will provide a more balanced appearance. Conversely, if your natural nails are long and narrow, longer acrylics can enhance their elegance.
- Nail Color: When it comes to color selection, trends come and go but personal preference always matters most. Whether you prefer classic nudes or vibrant shades that make a statement, choose colors that complement your skin tone and match your overall style aesthetic.
- Nail Design: Adding unique designs to your acrylic nails can really elevate your look. From simple accent nails to intricate patterns or even 3D embellishments, there are endless design possibilities to explore. Consider what appeals to you most – minimalistic elegance or bold creativity – when deciding on the right nail design.
- Maintenance: It’s important to consider how much time and effort you’re willing to invest in maintaining your acrylic nails before making a final decision. Some styles require regular salon visits for fills and repairs, while others can be easily maintained at home. If convenience is a priority for you, opt for a style that fits your maintenance preferences.
Remember, the key to choosing the right acrylic nails is to find a balance between personal style and practicality. Experiment with different options, consult with nail technicians or experts if needed, and most importantly, have fun expressing yourself through moda uñas acrilicas!
