Nico Hines Redux

Congratulations, apologising in a red alert situation, a new record time: 220 days, 14 hours, and 33 minutes.

Yes, seven months after this unpleasantness, Nico Hines has finally said sorry. Though to be honest, I don’t really want to dwell on his apology too much. Seven months is far too late, and I really don’t feel anything behind his words.1

But Nico himself always bothered me less than The Daily Beast as a whole in this story. And the worst thing about that article is the “Editor’s Note” attached to it. Here is the most pertinent section:

“We’ve said it before: as a newsroom we succeed together and we fail together. Our belief in this has not changed. After months of internal review and discussion – made more poignant by our current national climate – we as a newsroom are as mindful and committed as ever to the responsibility we have as independent journalists to not only tell the truth but further the public good. We will continue to stand up to bullies and bigots, value an inclusive culture and be a proud and supportive voice for the LGBTQ community.”

Here’s the thing. It’s all very well saying you’ve had a lengthy “internal review”. But without reporting the results of that review, any repeated apologies are pointless. The really important thing about this story isn’t Nico Hines’s behaviour, however pathetic it’s been. The important thing is the complete and utter failure of The Daily Beast’s editorial processes. And after seven months, The Daily Beast STILL doesn’t seem to get this.

I don’t mind them saying they succeed or fail as a newsroom together. I have no problem with that. But they still haven’t managed to explain how the bloody hell they failed.

This is not an impossible thing to do properly. I point everyone yet again to how Grantland dealt with a similar controversy. I’m not going to quote any of that again here – it’s worth reading the whole thing in full. And after reading it, you have a full understanding of exactly what their editorial process were, how they failed, and exactly what they did to improve them – and not in generalities, but how they applied to their specific error in judgement. In excruciating and excoriating detail.

All we’ve had from The Daily Beast are vague apologies, and promises to do better. For some mistakes, that’s enough. Not this. The potential consequences of this one were just too dire to hand-wave away. As it is, they’ve had seven months to tell us what really happened, and they’ve failed. At this point, they clearly have no intention of actually doing what they really need to do.

Nico Hines may well have gone on a leisurely seven month journey to enlightenment, but The Daily Beast as a whole clearly haven’t. I will waste precisely zero further time on them.

  1. Incidentally, isn’t it weird that Nico Hines hasn’t tweeted a link to his apology? And yet he’s updated his bio to remove the reference to Rio. Hmmmmmm.

Silent but Deadly

Daring Fireball, 15th March 2017:

Jon Rubinstein Named Co-CEO of World’s Biggest Hedge Fund, Fired 10 Months Later

Mary Childs, reporting for The Financial Times 10 months ago:

Bridgewater has chosen former Apple executive Jon Rubinstein as the new co-chief executive of the world’s biggest hedge fund, replacing Greg Jensen as part of a 10-year handover from founder Ray Dalio.

Mr Rubinstein, who also sits on the boards of Amazon.com and Qualcomm, is expected to join Bridgewater in May and to share the co-CEO role with Eileen Murray.

Bridgewater Associates co-CEO Jon Rubinstein is stepping down and transitioning to an external advisory role in April after 10 months on the job, the firm told clients in a note Wednesday.

“While over the last ten months Jon has helped build a plan to re-design our core technology platform and has brought in a group of extremely talented executives to build out our technology leadership, we mutually agree that he is not a cultural fit for Bridgewater,” Bridgewater founder, chairman, and co-CIO Ray Dalio wrote in the note.

Except that this isn’t how this piece was written when it was first published. It originally went as follows:

Jon Rubinstein Named Co-CEO of World’s Biggest Hedge Fund

Mary Childs, reporting for The Financial Times:

Bridgewater has chosen former Apple executive Jon Rubinstein as the new co-chief executive of the world’s biggest hedge fund, replacing Greg Jensen as part of a 10-year handover from founder Ray Dalio.

Not where I expected Rubinstein to wind up.

Screengrab here, taken from Google’s cache.1

What’s happened is pretty clear. John Gruber originally saw the FT article about Jon Rubinstein, didn’t clock that it was from ten months ago, and published in haste. Once he saw that the news was out of date, and Rubinstein was actually stepping down, he edited the article to correct the error… but didn’t mention his correction anywhere.

Not exactly fake news of the century, of course. Still, I thought it was worth pointing out, if only because Gruber is one of the good guys. And as the good guys, we should all be as transparent as possible about what we write. If we fuck up, even on a small piece such as this, we need to admit it. Otherwise, who knows what other mysterious edits happen with Daring Fireball after the fact? The issue is one of trust, and it only takes a small breach of that trust to make you doubt an entire site.

I could happily go back through Dirty Feed’s archives and do some nifty editing to ensure I’ve always been right about everything first time. But it’d be a pretty dishonest way to write.

  1. No idea why the spacing is incorrect on the navigation bar there, but I thought editing to make it correct wouldn’t be in the spirit of this article.

Our Little Genius

Our Little Genius publicity photo

In late 2009, a project was announced with a great deal of excitement.

“Fox announced on Wednesday that it is seeking participants for a new game show that will allow parents of young geniuses – age 6 to 12 – to put their kids’ knowledge to use winning “life-changing money.”

The series, to be called Our Little Genius, will feature the children competing to answer “increasingly difficult questions as they work their way up to win their family hundreds of thousands of dollars.” The new series is being created by Mark Burnett, the producer behind Survivor and Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader.”

On Nico Hines and The Daily Beast

Today marks three months since Nico Hines last tweeted. You remember Nico Hines, don’t you?

“An American news website has taken down, after sustained criticism, a “deplorable” piece that allegedly outed gay Olympic athletes.

The Daily Beast, an American news and entertainment website, published an “exposé” on Thursday about the ease with which dates with Olympic athletes could be arranged on Grindr, the gay hook-up app, in Rio de Janeiro.

The piece, originally titled “I Got Three Grindr Dates in an Hour in the Olympic Village”, quickly drew criticism of reporter Nico Hines for voyeurism and potentially putting closeted athletes at risk.

In one case, Hines gave the height, weight, nationality and language of an athlete from a country where discrimination and violence against the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex community is widespread.

That Hines – who identifies himself as The Daily Beast’s London correspondent and a former writer for The Times on Twitter – is a heterosexual and married father of one, was seen to compound the tastelessness of the article.”

The Guardian, 12th August 2016

Actually, I don’t wish to bang on about Nico Hines’ Twitter account. His lack of apology speaks for itself. I would, however, like to point out that he has clearly snuck into his account since this debacle, as he liked this tweet about an article posted in October. The fact he didn’t take this opportunity to even post an apology tweet deserves a thorough pointing at and laughing.

Still, what I really want to talk about is The Daily Beast‘s apology for the article. Yes, they did actually apologise, despite what some people would tell you. The problem is, the apology isn’t actually a very good one. And it’s not like the perfect guide for writing apologies online hasn’t been written. Derek Powazek’s “How To Apologize Online” would have told them everything they needed to know. I highly recommend you read that piece. I’ll wait.

How Not To Close A News Organisation

“We are open for business.”

— David Hencke, Exaro ‘Head of News’, 18th July 2016

“We are absolutely devastated. We were going ahead with plans and had only just put up a story the previous day, with a lot more in the pipeline, and suddenly we are told it’s closed just like that.”

— David Hencke, Exaro ‘Head of News’, 21st July 2016

This article is not the story of Exaro – the investigative news site set up in 2011 to, in their own words, “hold power to account”. That story heavily involves Exaro’s investigations of paedophilia and child abuse, and that’s a topic on which I have precisely no insight on whatsoever – either the investigations themselves, Exaro’s conduct during them, or the official police investigations. There are many people who are far more qualified to discuss those matters. I mean literally qualified, with actual qualifications. There is nothing I could ever add to those discussions.

Still, what I want to talk about is something which does impact on the aftermath of those investigations. Whether you think Exaro’s conduct was exemplary, reprehensible, or some complex line between the two, the fact now remains: aside from the usual rescue from the Wayback Machine, there is no primary evidence of those investigations left online. It has all disappeared.

Digital Spy, there

Yeah, yeah, putting the boot into Digital Spy is a fairly pointless thing to do, really. But it’s 3am, I’m bored, and they’ve mildly annoyed me, so what are you going to do?

Over on Ganymede & Titan – the Red Dwarf fan site I contribute to when I’m not sulking because I hate Red Dwarfa quite extraordinary thread has popped up. Short version: there are lyrics to the opening theme, nobody fucking knew about it until now, you can hear them most clearly 14 seconds into this video, we’re all gibbering wrecks because of this, and Darrell is our new lord and saviour.

Long version: read the thread. It’s worth it. Seriously.

The New Journalism

Boing Boing’s entire article:

“This inquisitive fellow was unable to keep his hands off a delicate museum piece hanging from the wall at the National Watch & Clock Museum. After breaking it, he lost interest and walked away, leaving his companion to clean up the mess.”

Description on the video, posted directly by the museum itself:

“This is why we beg and plead with our visitors to please refrain from touching objects in museums. The couple did notify Museum staff immediately.”

A few points:

Still, aside from that, excellent work Boing Boing.

Oh, and did I mention that the writer of the piece works as a Research Director?

The Most Important Thing You Will Ever Read About 9/11

The A.V. Club, “Fans discover Friends deleted an airport security subplot after 9/11″:

“For a show set in New York City in the late ’90s and early 2000s, it’s odd how little Friends ever touched on the events of September 11. In fact, the show never once commented on the tragic occasion, with the closest mention coming from an “FDNY” shirt Joey wore in later seasons. And yet recently, Friends fans uncovered a deleted subplot from an eighth season episode that actually dealt with airport security that was cut from a post-9/11 episode. Of course, it had nothing to do with the then-recently upgraded TSA practices; it just happened to be a bomb joke in an airport.”

OK, so let’s take a look at that video. Firstly: “Uploaded on Feb 6, 2007”. Slightly stretches the definition of “recent” in this context, doesn’t it? As in: the video was actually uploaded far closer to 9/11 than to today. Five and a half years on from 9/11; eight and a half years ago from now.

Secondly… what’s all this “fans” thing? That video – official opening scrolltext and all – is clearly an extra on a DVD release. So it’s less a “fans uncovered” thing, and more “production tells everyone ages ago in an officially licensed commercial product”. Sure, glancing around, it seems the video has gone viral recently – but pretending that this is new is just inaccurate.

Thirdly: embedding a video which purely rips off an extra from a DVD release makes me feel rather queasy. True, I did it on this G&T article – but it’s hardly the main focus of the article, and I did a load of pimping of the DVDs before I felt comfortable with it. The video in the A.V. Club article is really the main content of the piece, and it’s not attributed correctly anyway. Bleugh.

Despite my “hilarious” headline: of course none of this is the most important stuff in the world. And yet… it does point towards a major problem with some of the writing of this kind of material online: the pretence that everything has to be new, now, current. There’s an interesting article to be written about how material from 2007 suddenly goes viral, and the author steadfastly refuses to take it.

This article misrepresents when the material was released, and where the material came from. Two very important facts, waylaid in the attempt to make the story seem exciting and new. That’s just rubbish.

How Journalism Works Part #274952

So, a new series of The Brittas Empire is apparently in development.

The Mirror:

“The show ran for 53 episodes from 1991 to 1997 and regularly attracted nearly 10 million viewers.”

Mail Online:

“During its six-year run, some 53 episodes of the show were broadcast.”

The Express:

“At the height of its success, The Brittas Empire would draw an estimated 10 million viewers for the BBC, running for 53 episodes between 1991 and 1997.”

Scottish referendum: how irritating blogs covered newspapers covering broadcast media covering results

Today, the Guardian posted the following story: Scottish referendum: how broadcast media covered results. Regarding ITV’s coverage, we simply get the following:

“ITV’s Scotland Decides averaged 400,000 and a 5.5% share over the same period.”

This, however, is not how the article read earlier today. The above paragraph originally read as follows:

“ITV’s Scotland Decides averaged 400,000 and a 5.5% share over the same period, also for two simulcast editions – STV’s version for Scottish viewers fronted by Bernard Ponsonby and Aasmah Mir, with ITV News’s programme for the rest of the UK, anchored by Alastair Stewart.”

With a beaming sun and warm temperatures creating a brilliant afternoon, 95,722 Ohio State fans set a national record today for attendance at a spring football game.

The attendance topped Alabama's record of 92,138, set in 2007.

The stadium was filled to the top - though not at the capacity levels seen when fans are packed into the bleachers for regular season games.

"A lot had to do with the weather," said Dan Wallenberg, Athletics Department spokesman. "The team also have a significantly different look from last year and people wanted to get a look at that."

Attendance at the cool, soggy spring game last year was announced at 76,346, though some observers thought that was probably too high.

Most of the proceeds from the $5 tickets go back to the Athletics Department. For each of the 33,000 tickets sold by McDonald's, $1 goes to Ronald McDonald House. Ohio State's Life Sports youth program will receive $1 of other tickets sold.

Dividends4Life: 3 Dividend Stocks That Love Janet Yellen

3 Dividend Stocks That Love Janet Yellen

Posted by D4L | Friday, April 22, 2016 | | 0 comments »

Janet Yellen appeared to be squelching her more hawkish Federal governors on Tuesday as she laid out a more dovish outlook for interest rates. Her cautious tone is due to the global and financial uncertainties that are affecting the domestic economy. The dovish stance is exactly what investors were looking for as the S&P 500 rallied strong through Tuesday afternoon carrying through Wednesday’s activity. While an amicable Yellen will help the broad market, there are more specific groups of stocks that historically benefit even more.

Historically, dividend stocks tend to rally faster than value and the rest of the market in lower interest rate environments. Much of this is because dividend stocks are still using capital markets for operating capital and lower rates equate to better margins. For this reason, these three companies make our list of Stocks that love Janet Yellen: Altria Group (MO), Coca Cola (KO) and Verizon (VZ) are three dividend stocks that will gain from Janet Yellen's peaceful outlook.

Lennox G26Q4/5-125-6 help
I am a service manager at an apartment complex and the furnace that is having the problem turns the induced draft fan on for about 1 second and then turns off and wont turn on until I reset it. I replaced the draft fan but that turned out to not be the problem. the board flashes the green lights after the fan turns off..

If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

Grampa Bud 12-16-2010 01:00 PM

The flashing lights are an error code that applies to your brand and model of furnace. You must find the error code chart, either in your papers or on line and determine what the little guy is upset about. While you are at it call a local Lennox dealer and get them out. If you just can't wait, check the furnace flue. If the induction fan runs on call for heat for a few seconds and quits I would suspect that there is some form of flue blockage. Might be near the furnace or an animal could be caught in the chimney. The last time I ran across this I found a 2" galvanized flue pipe at the furnace connection choked down to about 3/4" with dirt and rust inside the flue.

yuri 12-16-2010 02:09 PM

Read the error code chart and report back. Sounds like the ventor fan relay is failing on the board and need a new circuit board. Try

diamondbackk60 12-16-2010 02:32 PM

checked the vent but nothing is clogged. I have looked everywhere for the error codes but cant find them. Anyone have suggestions where I could find these error codes?

^^^ Disregard above I got it figured out, thanks everyone for your help!

yuri 12-16-2010 02:48 PM

They are usually on a sticker on the inside or outside of one of the furnace doors.

Search Engines Special Syntax – intitle: inurl:

Google search engine | August 17th, 2007 | 6 Comments

Besides the boolean operators, Google search engine offers special syntax for extended and to better focus your search experience.

Google search engine indexes entire Web sites instead of only title of website or description of website. The advanced commands, so called special syntaxes or advanced operators give the opportunity to Google search engine users to search in specified parts of the Web site or page for the specific search keyword. This is useful when we get 8 million of results and we want to decrease the number of results and have more specific results connected to the keyword we are searching. We can specify whether we want to find pages that have our keywords in the URL of a page, and this is a excellent way for us to get our list of results shorter and with more specified results on the SERPs.

Some of these search operators perform very well and give us accurate results if we combine them, other operators in combination will not give us that accurate results and other combinations will simply not work at all.

intitle: advanced operator command

Here is an example of how you can use the intitle: advanced operator to find results of pages containing the keyword you search.

intitle:”se optimization”
allintitle:”se optimization” service

In the first example intitle:”se optimization” we will have in the SERPs results of pages that contain the phrase SE Optimization in the title of their site/page. While if we used intitle:”se optimization” services we would get results about pages and sites that contain the phrase SE Optimization in the title and have the word service somewhere in the body of their site. If we want to shorten the results even more and find sites that do offer SE Optimization services we would use the advanced operator command allintitle:”se optimization” service which would give us results of pages/sites that contain the phrase SE Optimization as exact match and will have the word service in the title. Tho the allintitle: advanced command will not combine good with other commands.

As you can see, Google search engine gives some weight to the title of the page, and now we know why having keywords in the title of our page/site is important in SEO.

intext: advanced operator command

You have most probably heard the famous phrase Content is King, thats because Google search engine (and other search engines) do give a lot of weight and importance to content, especially to unique content that can provide informations to the internet users.

intext:”professional SEO Service”

The intext: advanced operator command can help us find pages that contain our keywords ONLY within the text of the page/site and not in any other part of the site. This command is not much used, but it can shorten the results of our research and give a close match of pages that might have the information we search. Lets presume you are looking for professional SEO service company but you want to search for sites/pages that use the phrase professional SEO service inside their body text.

inurl: advanced operator command

You do remember the phrase SEO friendly URLs don’t you? I bet you do, and i bet you got convinced that thats a good SEO technique since you will be using using keywords in the URL..but now, you will better understand and get convinced that those keyword rich seo friendly URL’s really do have a weight and value since Google has implemented an advanced operator command to perform searches specifically for keywords in URL.

Lets presume that you want to find articles or tips or tutorials on make money online but you want to find the results that will lead you directly the post/article page and not to the main page, by using the inurl: advanced operator command you will eliminate from the SERPs results of pages that don’t have your keywords in their URL thing which will give you more accurate results of pages that contain articles on make money online. The command:

inurl:”make money online”

In many of the examples you did also notice how you can combine the advanced operators with the exact match option i did mention on fundamental concepts of the web research with Google post.

inanchor: advanced operator command

inanchor…what does that remind you? Probably on the previous post about importance of anchor text linking in SEO. Seems like search engines do give weight to the anchor text that is used when you link. You can perform a search and find sites that use a given keyword/phrase in anchor text with the command

inanchor:”SE Optimization”

More Advanced Operator Commands

There are more advanced operator commands available that can be used with search engines, but since i started to write these hacks for Google search engine to better explain to what parts of your website Google search engine (and not only) gives weight and importance i will not write about the other commands since but i will mention them bellow.

    This command will display all pages of the SEO Optimization blog that are indexed in that search engine where we will perform the query.
    The link request command will display all sites that are linking back to SEO Optimization blog (NOTE: Google will not display ALL the pages that link back to the site, it will only display those sites that Google believes are related and the link gives some weight to the site to which is linked).
    Cache command can be used to find pages that have been cached previously by the search engine, it is usually used by Domainers that acquire expired domains to check what the domain was related about. (NOTE: If the site is live and the cache is still available it does not mean that the cache is accurate, you should check the last time cached date).
  • filetype:pdf
    Filetype operator is used when you want to find a certain type of file on the net, it can be combined with the exact match option to obtain results of files that have your keywords (Example: “make money online” filetype:pdf)
    The command will display results of sites/pages that have content related to the one that SEO Optimization blog has.
    The info operator will give you results of informations about blog (it will pretty much bring you the commands site: link: related: cache: and keyword/phrase exact match with the possibility just to click, and no need to write them in the input of the search engine)

Some other operators you can use in a quick list, phonebook: (example, phonebook:Bill Gates or phonebook:phonenumberdigits), movie:Title of the movie, music:Artist Name or Title of song).

Hope you did enjoyed the read of the series Google Hacks and did understood to which parts of your site Google search engine does give value and weight, now, we can get back and talk about SEO Optimization of your website.

The dogs opening their presents this morning Koda is a seasoned gift un-wrapper... he gets SO excited about it!
Dodge has only just figured out how it all works, she did great this year!
This was Finn's first Christmas so he hasn't quite got the hang of it yet, he had fun nonetheless though

    LOL:ROFLMAO: Tag is his nickname it's short for Tagalong. The first thing I would teach him is spin. It's an easy trick.

    LOL did say I was half asleep:coffee::coffee::coffee: Great name, even if it does confuse some half asleep dummies:D I think, now I'm more awake Sit Pretty would be a good one for Maeve as she already does this, so can 'capture' that.
  3. Dogster Honored Member

    Yeah, sit pretty is a good trick to teacha cat. My cat loved to do it.:D Cats do a sit pretty and at the same time swat at your hand, LOL:LOL:

    Good treat: Tuna:p

    Sooooo happy all's been going well!!! Behind on threads, really busy work week, will catch up more this weekend. You and Ra Kismet both rock!!! Kudos to both of you!!! :D(y):LOL:

    As far as clicker training - you can clicker train most anything with the ability to think. There are actually "chicken camps" given here ( USA - not sure about other countries) given by professional trainers, where one works with chickens. You really want to improve your clicker training skills? Clicker train a chicken. :LOL: Clicker training got it's origins in the marine world, being used to train whales and dolphins. Think about it - a little piece of plastic having that much influence over a whale. Truly amazing.

    Thank you will use Tuna, I think even my two fuss pots will like that:D Yes, Maeve swipes your hand quite well already so with click/treat she'll be awesome:D Now, if I can only stop Ra Kismet and Maeve playing chase - we just may have a 'double act':D

    Understand Jackiemutts thank you I'm so proud of the boy:D Ra Kismet did really well yesterday(y) We had our first 'close encounter' little soprano yapper behind a fence and HIGHLY VISIBLE, with a bass baritone booming in the background not sighted, on the SAME side of the road, with a narrowish sidewalk. Ra Kismet started to looked a bit more interested than when passing on the other side of the road but I quickly swung into action, shortened the lead up as he was on completely loose lead and went into TREAT DISPENSER MODE:D He lost interest quite quickly and then LOL, just SAT when I tried to move him along once more:D He looked at me as if to say 'hey Mom, I like sitting and being a good boy, get's me lotsa treats'. He did 'bottom bump' along a bit but still remained sitting, until I had an AHAHA moment, started walking backwards, kept low so I was keeping close eye contact with Ra Kismet and he followed like an angel. LOL well the treat bag anyway. LOL must have given the motorists an eyeful (all stopped for a traffic light) me with bottom up, head down walking in reverse :ROFLMAO:but hey who cares, Ra Kismet got past his first 'close encounter' with dignity, LOL even if I didn't:ROFLMAO:, and HE'S THE ONE WHO COUNTS.

    So proud of the chap, he's going great guns:D(y)(y) Rest of the walk he was an ANGEL, went past all the known yappers without the slightest bit of interest, they were on the other side of the road though except the new one with a shill yap but that ones wasn't visible and LOL think Ra Kismet was GLAD to hurry past that one 'oh our ears", but hey he's doing sooooooooo well.:D Today (Saturday) we may encounter 'dogs on the same side not behind fences' as it's a bit harder to judge when the doggy brigade is on the move, not so regular on weekends with their times. Trying to make it easy for the boy, not push him at all, as he's doing sooooooooooo well:D We shall see what happens. Will load up with even more treats, just to be sure, don't want to run out as the TREAT DISPENSER is so important. No doubts in my mind that click/treat works like magic(y)(y)(y)

    I've seen the chickens being trained, amazing!!!!!!!!! I adore chickens (partner doesn't:() but would love to have some one day and train them too - after I have got Ra Kismet used to them - he's never seen a chicken:confused::confused:

    It is amazing, a piece of plastic costing next to nothing and you can train mammals like whales and dolphins, just shows the power of that small piece of plastic. LOL now I'm totally wondering what on earth it is about that click which makes such a HUGE difference. I have always used treats but not the clicker, and when Rakins went into over drive, as you said, he didn't even hear me or was conscious I existed (or anything else for that matter except the object he was focused on, the other dog). But with the clicker, ALL THE DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD, one little clicker, different reaction from my boy entirely. It has to be the clicker which makes the difference though LOL of course, followed by a treat or a jackpot is grand. He reacts like lightening the moment he hears that 'click'. I'm totally in awe of it's power. Am also wondering why other trainers and schools don't use it:rolleyes: as it's a very kind, effective way of getting our dogs to understand the rules they need to know to live happily in our world.

    Ra HATED the slip chain, keep your puppy (as he was then) tight against your side and jerk, as the wretched woman did, your dog along if it doesn't respond. I was HORRIFIED when she got a little, nervous white fluffy, and LITERALLY PULLED THE LITTLE DOG ALONG so much so it BOUNCED IN A KIND OF BALL, didn't 'walk' along at all. Poor little thing was all scrunched up and TERRIFIED you didn't need to be an 'expert' to see the sheer terror in that poor wee souls body language and eyes. It was that night Ra and I left half way through the class never to return. And other dog owners LAUGHED sick sick sick:censored::censored::censored: what I thought of it all! She had the left hand tight against her side with lead through it and literally YANKED with the right hand a jerking movement back and forth kinda like trying to start an older type of lawn mower- disgusting and she got furious with me because I REFUSED to do that with Ra Kismet - I was so furious I had to keep my mouth shut and just leave, there were children in the class:eek: I turned on my heels and walked out in the middle of class, too disgusted to even leave at the end. She'd been on my back before that because I had Rakins on a loose lead, said that wasn't the way to train a dog - obviously she had NEVER EVEN HEARD OF LOOSE LEAD TRAINING. I did argue on that one but....well suffice to say we did NOT agree on how to train dogs, certainly NOT with my boy! I'd already taken him off the slip chain, again bringing all hell down on me LOL I don't think I was too popular:eek:

    Thank you Dogster:D I too am totally amazed, the kids learning so well:D Wish you could fly over and meet him, he's such an adorable little fellow and he'd love to meet you too:D (so would I of course). I'm NOT exaggerating how well he's doing, not worth doing that, as how can I get help/advice by exaggerating? He does learn quickly, from the moment I got him, I somehow KNEW he was one VERY smart, thinking puppy:D LOL, he knew just how to win my partner over who had said NO he goes back at first:D Rakins turned on the 'charm offensive' just at the RIGHT moment:D:D I didn't have to do a thing because believe me NO WAY was Ra Kismet going back, partner could go but NOT Ra Kismet!!!!!!!!! Funniest sight ever, partner lying on his back on the ground making 'puppy noises' - Ra Kismet was a tad wary of men when I first got him - I didn't know how to keep a straight face and ignore the performance:ROFLMAO: but thought it best to allow Rakins to 'do his thing'. LOL he won, partner adores him, even if partner isn't too good at dog training:rolleyes:.

    I knew though Ra Kismet and I had that 'extra special bond' the moment the lady from the shelter placed him in my arms. He kinda snuggled into me and 'sighed' it still makes me tear up (happily) when I think of that first moment:love: It was love at first sight:love::love:

    Mary, just went back to your intro thread and looked at your pics again - I had forgotten, but remembered looking at them the second I saw them. Both pups are adorable, but yes, your little "Rakins" (how cute) is a looker. :love:

    A friend and I were having a talk only today very similar to what you brought up above, about the horrible way dogs have been treated all in the name of training. We wouldn't think of putting a choke collar on a cat, or alpha-rolling a cat (just try that and see if you have a face left!), or putting a shock collar on a horse, or doing some of the horrid things we do to dogs, to any other animals. Yet we take these loving creatures who would (in many cases) give their lives for us, and stick shock collars on them, pinch and prong collars, choke collars, alpha-roll them, scruff them, jerk and yank them around, accuse them of trying to dominate us and our world, hit them, etc. and then we wonder why so many have issues??? Holy cow. Good for you walking out of that class, and how sad that no one else was bright enough to follow you! When that little voice inside of you speaks, it's usually best to listen, and when it tells you to run, you usually just have to ask which direction - and go. And you'll most often be glad you did. Thank heavens you once again listened to that voice. Seems your gut instincts have been so good in leading you toward right/wrong as far as dogs' welfare and best interests. Sadly some pay no attention and only want fast/now/hurry/instant gratification, no matter what. The thing is, one day you're going to realize you're walking down the street, Rakins has no reaction, doesn't even look at you, you'll want to burst, but will just keep on walking - and that will become the norm. And the trust and bond you two will have will be so immense by then that you won't even be able to describe it to people. And those who jerk and yank their dogs into submission may have quiet dogs *for now* but they miss the fun of getting there, and they totally miss that relationship built on total trust. And that's worth every second of the journey.

    Oh Jackiemutts you are SO RIGHT:D(y)(y)(y)(y)(y)(y) Everything you say is true. Yes, I had to smile a little at trying to alpha roll my cats, I wouldn't be ALIVE if I tried that, let alone minus a face. Yet, as you say, people do all this to dogs:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    And then on the news you hear about the 'increasing number of dog attacks'. I get furious beyond words as it's NEVER the dogs fault but the owners and yet, sadly, the dogs are blamed and well we know what happens next:cry::cry::cry:

    Well my 'method' is to put myself in my dog's place. How would I like that done to me? If it's one of the cruel methods, the answer is a resounding NO WAY!!!!!!!!! Use those tactics with me and I'd play up BIG TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!! Plus I watch/study my dogs, how they react and move, what's the look in their eyes (the mirrors of the soul) everything about them, including how they breathe, is it deep and easy or ????. I also talk to my dogs as if they could speak back using our language and I know people think I'm barmy but I swear they DO understand. Rakins (thank you that's his pet name:D) understands many more words than people realize and I KNOW this by HIS reactions to something I may say, not always directly to him, but something related.

    You're right onwhen that little voice speaks, take heed and when it says run - just run away!!!!!!!!! I always listen to my 'little voice' it's never let me down yet:D

    I feel sorry for the dogs and the owners who want the quick 'instantly obedient dog'. It's not going to happen, unless you CAUSE THE DOG TO FEAR YOU and that's just NOT a relationship I would want with my dogs. My partner is, through total ignorance, one who thought (more past tense now thank goodness) that puppies would INSTANTLY know to stay etc. He had the Brad Pattison video (I didn't know this) downloaded, just after I got Rakins, and came in all smiles telling me that this guy had youngsters 9 weeks old sitting and staying outside a shop WITHOUT SUPERVISION!~!!!!!!!!!!!! I was STUNNED and said or rather stuttered "not possible, puppies that young impossible' and other such virtually inarticulate words. Then I saw 'that' video and nearly had fifty fits. Told my partner if he ever dared use any of those methods with Rakins he'd wish he was dead!!!!!!!!!! He did dare to alpha roll Rakins once and brother :censored::censored::censored::censored::censored::censored: suffice to say he was in the dog house and not a very pleasant one either!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He's learning, partner that is, that my way MAY be a bit slower but it's the right way.

    Rakins and I have a very strong bond and it's becoming even stronger. I am already at the point where I just cannot describe how strong it is and yes, I pray it NEVER happens but I swear he would give his life for me and I would for him:love::love:.

    We're progressing towards that moment when you feel you could burst with pride at how wonderful your boy is walking down the street. I would say now, we're around 90% there, 110% when all is quiet. We just have to work a little more and of course THE BIG ONE hasn't come up yet. Today was apparently 'mower day' so not too many dogs around, just the usual yappers and one Mr. Rowdy - not right on his fence line but at the back but because the neighbors drive way was open he could see us clearly through more railings. He barked like mad and his owner (well I presume so) just looked and walked away. Didn't bother to speak to the dog or anything! My darling did look down the drive way but LOL I went into my click/treat modus operandi and Rakins just sat and didn't bat a pretty eyelash:D I always ask for protection before we go out and that we will NOT meet another dog on the street, same side, UNTIL Rakins is ready to meet that challenge. I know the Universe hears me:D.

    I would HATE to have the 'perfectly behaved instantly obedient puppy' honestly, you'd miss so much fun along the way. Puppyhood is exciting, a learning, exploring time for them and it's just beyond words beautiful to see them exploring this big wide world that we so often take for granted. To see their reactions, watch them check out something, which to us would be mundane, is a pure joy no words can describe. LOL, it's almost a sad moment when you realize your 'baby' has become 'all grown up'. Except of course for that loving bond:love: Rakins is holding on to adolescence BIG TIME and I"M SO HAPPY:D His zest for life is FANTASTIC and those eyes - the kid gets me in every time - cheeky, loving and oh so full of joy:love: And LOL so disgusted the flop on the floor when he doesn't get his own way, priceless, has to be seen, he's so funny:D e.g. HE's ready for training and I ask him to hold on a minute. LOL he's always ready, keen and willing to 'work':D

    More photos on the way and maybe a little video of Rakins doing his 'tricks", so glad you found the others, I was sure I had posted some some where. And Zeus, he's a sensational boy too:love:

    Oh yes, I learned a lot from an old American Indian who lived near us back home. He was amazing a 'true' animal whisperer' not like the other (Millan) fake one. He was Cherakee (sorry spelling's failed me) and was absolutely one with nature and everything which lived on this planet. I learned the real 'old ways' about how to treat animals from him and it's always stayed with me. His animals, and he had many both domesticated and wild ones, where his friends. He ate and slept with them and LOVED them, so gentle and kind. I still tear when I think of him, if only others were more like him this would be a beautiful world for all:love:

    Awww, that's beautiful, Mary:love: I love your posts.:D

    Jackienmutts you are SO RIGHT!!!! I've never thought about it that way before... humans only do this to DOGS.:mad: Man's best friend. And after everything people like Cesar Millan, or Brad Pattinson, and all their followers do to dogs, we still expect them to be our BEST FRIENDS?!?!? And be loyal and gentle towards us?!?!?!O_o If I were a dog, I wouldn't even THINK about trustuing, or being loyal to a person that hits, kicks, pinces me, puts prong collars and shock collars on me, dominates me... I'd just be plain terrified.O_o HEY, DOGS HAVE FEELINGS TOO. (y)

    Thank you Dogster:D I agree with EVERYTHING you say, though I'd be one of the 'bad' dogs I think, if I were treated like that:mad: Have you ever noticed that these people, Millan, Pattinson etc. NEVER mention the word LOVE at all? I've only watched them a bit, makes me too sick to watch too much, but never once have I heard the words LOVE, LOYALTY, TRUST or any of the GOOD words. All you ever hear is dominance, dog at the bottom of the ladder etc. etc. The awful woman in the ghastly dog school went on for ages and ages about how our dogs were at the bottom of the ladder blah blah blah. I took Rakins for a wee walk about, he was bored witless and I was mad:mad: And she had the nerve to ask me if I heard and understood what she was saying - I understood all too clearly - I didn't even reply and I'm not normally that rude to people:mad: The other thing, in that school, I never saw her pat a dog or, apart from yanking them around, acknowledge their existence:mad:. When I said to her Rakins was bored, that's why he was 'playing up', trying to entice a very charming young GS to play, doing a bit of 'ground work' (digging up the grass) and umm being a bit restive, she said and this is verbatam "I don't care about the dog". As you all know, we left!

    Yes dogs have feelings VERY SENSITIVE ONES TOO!!!!!!!!!!!! They're more sensitive than a lot of humans and a darned sight more loving, compassionate, caring and understanding to boot! Oh yes and MORE intelligent, MORE willing to learn. My boys are told how much I love them all the time:love::love::love:

    Ugh, that training class sounds horrible.:confused::mad: I don't understand how sitting with us on the couch, or digging in the garden is a sign of dominance. They just want to be dogs, they want to spend some time with us. Dogs don't want to dominate us, but a lot of humans think so, and they treat them like they're alien beings trying to take over the world.

    It was Dogster. My vets did have flyers for it but after I told them what it was like, they removed them(y) They were horrified, especially about the yanking and saying she wasn't interested in the dog. They're totally into positive reinforcement, so much so they won over my late Buddha (cat), who was the only animal I've had who didn't like vets. The school has either closed down (HOORAY if that's the case) or moved, because I haven't seen their signage when I go past.

    Nor do I, my dogs sit on the couch and LOL Rakins sits on my lap (he must have been a Chuahua (can never remember how to spell that one:))in a past reincarnation). Plus they sleep on my bed, well technically Zeus sleeps IN the bed under the duvet, until he gets too hot:D. Dogs don't want to dominate us at all, they want to be part of the family and treated with love and respect:love:

    Digging in the garden is usually a sign of sheer boredom, they're using their minds to find something to play with, shows they're thinking much more than 'being naughty':D

    Yes I agree, a lot of people think dogs are trying to dominate us, take over the world (may just be a better place if they did take over) and I am sure Aliens would think VERY poorly of humans if they got the same treatment many hand out to dogs!

    LOL Well it's a tad difficult if I'm trying to drink a cuppa:LOL: But he's actually so smart, because I sit in the corner of the couch, next to the side table, he kinda 'tucks himself half on me and half on the couch, sits like a human with his head either on my shoulder or on the arm of the couch:LOL: Though just occasionally he will sit facing me and LOL I have to make sure he doesn't end up on the floor:eek:

    On wouldn't I like to see that, Millan and Brad Pattinson wearing a shock collar. I have actually said, when watching, I would like to treat THEM the way they treat dogs, i.e. shock collars, kicks, yanks, prong collars etc. etc. and see how THEY liked it!!!!!!!!!!!

    That's one party I'd love to attend :eek::D altho dogs, being the pure, forgiving and loving spirits that they are, would insist that no, please use positive reinforcement on even Cesar, Brad and the like, no matter what they've tried on dogs. :love: *sigh*

    Mary, your house sounds much like mine. As I'm typing this, I'm sitting on the couch, laptop in my lap, with one very big GS girl sleeping next to me on the couch (and she has way more of it than I do!). :LOL: Alf is outside someplace, he loves laying outside each evening for a while, communing with the creatures of the night (or something - and yes, he's safely inside a fenced yard). But - he'll come wandering in at bedtime, and beat me to the bed. Each night I have to figure out where in the heck I'll squeeze in - usually both dogs are sacked out on my bed, and they don't leave me much room. :(:ROFLMAO: I guess the dog beds are always empty ... hmmm..... :LOL:

    As far as dogs and world domination (or even domination of my small universe here) - I keep waiting for the day when they run off to work so they can pay the mortgage and be totally in charge of everything ... the bills, the house, the food, the chores, etc. and I can finally be left home all day with the tv and a bowl of popcorn (figured that's the equivalent of the radio and a stuffed kong?). Don't see it happening. I keep hoping tho.... :LOL: :ROFLMAO:

    *sigh* yes Jackiemutts dogs would definitely say that, we can learn so much from their pure, forgiving and loving spirits, not a mean bone or a nasty thought in their wonderful minds:love:

    :ROFLMAO: Jackiemutts your house is definitely like mine:ROFLMAO: As I am typing, on the P.C. I have one cat asleep (as usual) in the 'in' tray, another attempting to help me type, Ra Kismet flopped on the floor and Zeus lying alongside:love: As it's a very small room, I have to ensure I don't move the office chair, tails and chairs on castors aren't a good mix:eek:

    Couch sharing is pretty much the same as in your house. Zeus takes up his 'spot' at one end, which he 'defends' against all possible takers. Ra Kismet either sits on my lap or squeezes in between us, which takes some doing, as it's only a two seater couch:ROFLMAO: I definitely have the least amount of space. Then one of the cats will decide she wants to move in too, but at least they go for the arms:LOL: It can be a bit competitive when the cats want my lap and Ra Kismet is already established. The cats generally move off wearing a rather snooty expression:LOL:

    As far as bedtime, Zeus always goes through his little 'ritual', asking to come under the duvet, just when I've finally managed to squeeze in alongside Rakins, who likes to lie in comfort with his head on ALL the pillows (not sure how he does it but I get one corner, if I'm lucky) Zeus then, after I lift up the duvet, trots all around the bed, comes back - it's rinse and repeat around three times, then FINALLY he decides to get up, moving my legs out the way of course, and settles down for approximately five minutes, then he's off again:D. I do manage some sleep and fortunately neither dog snores. Partner gives up the ghost and belays for the spare bed:giggle:. Then it's time for the cats to move in:D HRH tramps over Zeus, if he's still inside the bed, so he then does a shuffle HRH 'rolls" with the shuffle and all is calm, for a few seconds, until Maeve makes her entry. She's a little more 'delicate', if you exclude the loud MEOW I'M HERE, and will usually take up whatever space is still available. Yes, I do EVENTUALLY get to sleep, but not until after all the 'kids' are well settled in and sleeping peacefully:sleep: The dogs' beds?? Empty, have often thought maybe I should sleep in them...LOL I know my place....but then again, if I tried that I'd probably have all the tribe trying to share with me and that would kinda defeat the purpose and be even more of a squeeze. LOL don't you just LOVE them!!!!!!!

    Dreams, we all have them, I too dream of the day when the boys are paying all the bills. I did actually look to see if there was an animal casting agency here, there are several where I used to live, but sadly not here. Doubt the cats would make the cut, unless someone wanted a commercial of cats sleeping, but the dogs, hummm just maybe there may be a chance there:D They say 'hope springs eternal'. In the meantime, I too dream on, waiting for that moment when one of the boys brings home their first pay check, oh well, bank deposit I should say:D.

This 'n' That

Is it weird that I get excited when the new Menards ad arrives each week? Am I the only one who thinks that Menards is the greatest home improvement store of them all?

I love the smell of sawdust and I loved
watching my grandfather in his workshop.
It's true, this may seem like an odd store for a woman—a woman blogger, no less—to enjoy, but I have a good reason. Menards smells like sawdust. My grandfather's workshop smelled like sawdust. My grandfather loved Menards. For me, Menards = memories of grandpa.

I think of my grandfather a lot at this time of the year. With Veteran's Day, I remember his curious and interesting stories of life as a Navy "Seabee." With hunting season in full swing, I remember the many years growing up and making molasses taffy for him to take along for his hunting trips. As December approaches, and as I anticipate the joy-filled season of Christmas, a somber cloud looms as I recall that December 21 many years ago, the day my grandfather died. I miss my grandpa. I look forward to seeing him again one day.

The moral of the story? Do not mock my love of Menards. Also, cherish the memories you have with loved ones, but do not cling too tightly to those people. Our lives here truly are but a vapor. Like the grass that withers, we too will one day die. And yet, while this body dies, our soul does not. Whether we have been brought to repentance and faith in Christ, or whether we spend this earthly life at war with God, we will live forever. If you have been saved, do you long to see your Savior, or do you think to yourself, "I still want to see/do/experience ______ in this life"? This life is not forever, and it could end far more abruptly than you anticipate. Are you ready to meet Christ? Please, dear Christian, pry your fingers from this world, and pray that God might help you place your hope in and focus on the One who is, who was, and who is to come, the Lord Jesus Christ.

So...while I highly recommend you do some Christmas shopping at Menards, I don't recommend that you traipse off to the store without first enjoying your week in review (kind of):

  • Tim Challies is revisiting his concerns with Jesus Calling.
  • I do not understand why this is headline news.
  • Let's be honest, true Christians are not in a tizzy over the Starbucks red cup fiasco. At least, I hope no true Christians are burning any energy on this non-controversy. Regardless, I appreciated the thoughts shared here by Nathan Busenitz.
  • On a similar note, you must read this article from the Detroit Baptist Theological Seminary. There are so many good quotes in this piece that I don't know which to choose, but let's start with this: "I am rather relieved that stores are gradually weaning themselves off the use of Jesus as cheap advertising. Seeing Christ associated with this selfish rumpus has long been grotesque to me, and I’m rather happy to see it end. So if you are agitating to keep Christ in that expression of Christmas, please stop. You are hurting Christ."
  • Speaking of controversy, I don't vote. But if I did, here's one reason why I would not vote for Ben Carson. I mean, really? Is he serious with that picture?
  • So this week I came across something called "Bible art journaling" and, even without knowing much about it, just a peek at a few pictures made me nervous. I said something on Twitter and the next thing I knew, my friend Elizabeth Prata had posted this.
  • Here is your weekly dose of adorable (thank you, Amy!).
  • I don't even know what to do with this.
  • I also don't know what to do with this.
  • The danger of contemplative prayer.
  • The Cripplegate shares three instances where someone should consider being re-baptized.
  • Why your sin must go:

  1. Hello Erin,

    Thank you very much for the link. Even more, thanks for calling me your friend! I hope and pray you have a relaxing weekend and a time of refreshing.

Please keep it pithy (in other words, if your comment is long enough to be its own blog post, don't bother), pertinent (please don't go off-topic), and respectful (to the author, to the other readers, and to the subject of the post). If you can't do that, your comment will not be posted.

If you haven't already, please read the Comment Policy in its entirety.

Nitromethane: Top-Fuel Drag Racing’s Soup of Choice

June 28th, 2007

The idea is so simple. You pit two cars against each other over a straight, measured distance — an eighth of a mile or a quarter mile. But that’s the last simple thing you’ll ever have to say about drag racing, a sport that has evolved into an extreme, heart-pumping exhibition of pure power and engineering genius. We’re talking 6,000 horsepower here, making the zero to 60 jump in two-tenths of a second, busting 325 mph and ticking off that quarter mile in under 5 seconds. You don’t do that on a tank of regular from the corner gas station. Read More

Autocross Club Equipe Rapide (ER) severs ties with SCCA

June 28th, 2007

Written by: Carl Couric As some of you may or may not know, the SCCA board has decided to cut all ties with Equipe Rapide and not honor the contract they agreed to at the beginning of the year. My first reaction was to think of how this affects all SCCA members, especially the Florida Region autocrossers, and it made me angry. All I could see was SCCA Florida Region’s board was being short sighted again. I then looked at it from a simple business standpoint, and from an ER perspective, I said “Thank you! More money and freedom for Read More

New Cadillac CTS-V to have Supercharged LS7 Corvette motor with 600HP

June 4th, 2007

Various sources are reporting that the new Cadillac CTS-V due out next year as s 2009 model will have the Corvette’s LS7 motor with a supercharger. Although the upcoming Corvette “Blue-Devil” will have the same powerplant approaching 700HP, the small 4 door super-caddy will be setup for 600HP. That’s a lot of power for a sedan of this size. Current offerings from Mercedes and BMW will be be coming up quite short on the power side of things. The natually aspirated 63 V8 motor from the Mercedes AMG division and BMW’s V10 are only putting out 500HP and don’t have Read More

Your health shines through your teeth.

It is a worldwide fact that beautiful teeth – a sign of health and genetic quality – attract people.
What is less known is that every tooth or area of your mouth is directly connected to a specific organ(s)?

Also less known is that health conditions can be diagnosed through the reading of dental panoramic x-rays even before a health condition is acclaimed.

Gastro-intestinal disorder Hormonal disorders Headache

Therefore if you are suffering from unexplained symptoms or they have been dismissed as imaginary or psychosomatic, or you're worried that the materials in your mouth or home environment may be making you sick, have your dental panoramic x-rays read by an expert in this field.

Dr. O. Tapparo, expert professor in dentistry from Munich in Germany, will help you analyze your dental panoramic X-rays and the risk assessment of your oral cavity, based on his tooth-organ relationship chart (see chart). Any pathological changes found are then considered in connection with the organs. You can do this without leaving the comfort of your own home.

Exclusive: Sylvia Soska Talks American Mary – First Look at Katharine Isabelle

Dread recently caught up with filmmaker Sylvia Soska, who along with sister Jen is set to direct (from their own script) the horror feature American Mary (we first reported on the project here), to discuss the film and give us the lowdown on their approach to the flick’s effects and more. In addition, the filmmaker provided us with some exclusive teaser art.

Sylvia and her sister (the duo previously delivered last year’s sensationally titled independent feature Dead Hooker in a Trunk) will produce American Mary, which is slated to commence principal photography this June in Vancouver, British Columbia, along with Industry Works and CJ Wallis, and she said of script’s narrative, “It’s the story of a medical student named Mary (portrayed by Ginger Snap’s actress Katharine Isabelle), who is growing increasingly broke and disenchanted with the medical school she attends and the established doctors she once idolized. The allure of easy money sends her into the messy world of underground surgeries, which leaves more marks on her than her so-called freakish clientele.” Actress Paula Lindberg will join Isabelle for the proceedings.

Eschewing the current trend of supernatural horror, and partially inspired by the current and continuing economic downturn and subsequent (for many) disenchantment, Soska said of her inspiration for American Mary, “There is a great portion of underground culture that is explored throughout the film, making the piece a discussion on things that people don’t normally like to talk about. We are in an economic downturn, and people are becoming more desperate to maintain a comfortable life, and those with huge ambitions find themselves compromising their own sense of morality to achieve those now even more impossible goals. The title character, Mary, dreams of being a surgeon – one of the best in the field, and she sees the world with rose-tinted glasses. As her story develops, we see a darker reality of who we perceive to be monsters, and of those who actually are monsters. It’s a story about the pursuit of the ‘American Dream’ that falls into a very dark place in human nature.”

As for the effects portion of American Mary, the Soskas have tapped makeup veteran Mark Shostrom (A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors), and Sylvia told us, “We are making a point of doing everything practically. I would hate for people to watch the film in twenty years and see dated computer technology. It takes away from the story. That’s why I feel films like John Carpenter’s The Thing and Jacob’s Ladder have such a life to this day, because those practical effects can stand the test of time. There is only one small effect that we will use slight CG assistance in bringing to life, only because it would be considered cruel and unusual to put a human being through it (practically).

A mutual friend of ours, horror aficionado and writer Kristy Jett, introduced us,” continued Sylvia of Shostrom’s involvement with American Mary. “This was still early on before the project had been greenlit. He had heard about our first film (Dead Hooker in a Trunk) and we – being complete horror nerds – knew who he was, and it was one of those ‘this feels like a dream moments’.

Mark is a master of taking what seem to be impossible and overtly ambitious effects and making them a reality. One of my favorite aspects of his work is that his designs always have this unique sense of style to them. You can see a Mark Shostrom effect from miles away. They have his personal fingerprint. The majority of the effects that will be seen in the film will be of a medical nature, but not the type audiences are necessarily familiar with. There are prosthetics and effects unique only to this film, and there is a certain sequence that we are confidant people will be remembering for a long time – or trying hard to forget, might be a more appropriate description.

It’s a perfect pairing because the effects in American Mary are of the ilk that would terrify and worry most artists with their complexity and uniqueness. Luckily for us and the production, Mark has made a career out of bringing challenging nightmare-inducing effects to life. It’s very exciting. The man looks at an insane sequence and has ten different ways to pull it off perfectly. No hiding things in lighting. Everything can be shot in bright lights, straight-on, and still be horrifying.

As for the casting of lead Isabelle (who’s had a long career in the horror field, from the series “Supernatural” to Ginger Snaps, Freddy Vs. Jason, and beyond) in the role of the titular Mary, “It was very difficult deciding on who to approach,” said Soska, “as the film rests very firmly on the chosen actress’ shoulders, and it is an extremely challenging and complicated role. She is a very strong and intelligent character, but she is also very young and there is quite a heavy focus on her physical appearance, as that is a theme that plays out throughout the film. Mary can be very relatable to people of ‘Generation Y’ as she tries to carve out her role in society, while at the same time there is something very dark within her. That darkness and intelligence mixed with a dangerous amount of ambition and personal growth – the story follows her character over time – isn’t an easy task (for an actress).

We met Katharine after she had a little time with the script to discuss (it). We wanted to make sure we could mesh creatively. Jen and I have loved her work for years, but you never truly know a person until you meet them. I can say without a shadow of a doubt that Katharine Isabelle is the perfect Mary.

She has this intelligence to her and this allure,” continued the filmmaker of Isabelle’s inclusion. “Speaking to her is intoxicating – everything she says is interesting, and she has this ability to just draw you in. Despite her veteran status, she is also one of the most down to earth human beings on the planet. When she is committed to a project, she works extremely fucking hard – her work ethic floors me. We are all very excited about the character and bringing her to life. I feel like this movie wants to exist so badly that it has completely possessed me. I’m in love with it, and I was nervous about finding an actress to match that level of excitement. Katie almost exceeds that crazy excitement. It’s going to be quite the spectacle when it hits the big screen. People are going to remember her performance for a very long time.

Stay tuned to Dread for our eventual set visit to American Mary, and in the interim, one can visit the official website for the Soska sisters’ Twisted Twins Productions.

Types of Bariatric Procedures with Dr. Feiz

Renowned bariatric surgeon Dr. Michael Feiz knows that laypeople often get confused about the types of weight loss procedures that are available and is happy to clear up the confusion. Some of that confusion may be because the type of surgery colloquially known as stomach stapling, known medically as a gastric bypass, originally got the lion’s share of the publicity when it first emerged. Naturally, it was gastric bypass before and after pictures that captivated the public in those days, and so the bypass became associated in the popular mind with all weight loss procedures.

The Lap Band, however, has received its share of publicity in more recent years, largely thanks to some very well-known celebrity patients. This procedure uses a band to tie off a major portion of the stomach, greatly reducing its capacity and therefore curbing the appetite and ability to overeat. Since it doesn’t actually remove any of the stomach, this operation is a great deal less invasive than a bypass procedure and is also fully reversible.

Dr. Feiz has had great success performing these first two operations, but a third procedure may be the most reliable for many patients. The gastric sleeve is so-called because it actually reshapes the stomach into a sleeve-like shape. The procedure removes a very large percentage of the stomach, usually 75-85 percent of it. One reason the operation is thought to be especially effective is that, included in the portions of the stomach it removes, is an area of the stomach called the fundus, which is responsible for the manufacturer of a substance called ghrelin. If you’re wondering “what is ghrelin?” it’s a hormone that appears to be responsible for sending hunger signals to the brain – a signal obese people appear to receive all too often.

All three operations can have outstanding results. However, the only way to find out which is best for you is to contact Dr. Feiz & Associates.

Dr. Feiz & Associates offer many options to people interested in solutions for weight loss in Los Angeles. The highly experienced Dr. Michael Feiz and his team provide gastric sleeve surgery and the Lap Band in Los Angeles. They also provide gastric sleeve surgery and the Lap Band in Beverly Hills, Oxnard, Huntington Beach, and a variety of other convenient office locations.

On-Board Diagnostics: Deciphering the Check Engine Light

The OBD-II will save you money and help you understand what's wrong with your car.
By DriverSide Staff
Cars rely on computers to help determine fuel delivery, ignition timing and other key functions. The Engine Control Unit (ECU) -- that’s the computer that tells the engine what to do -- uses sensors throughout the vehicle to keep a watchful eye on the health of the car. When a bad signal or code is sent to the computer it will let you know by illuminating the panic-inducing check engine light. This is where the OBD II comes in.

An OBD-II (On-Board Diagnostics) reader is an engine code reader that can talk to the ECU to determine the cause of an illuminated check engine light. Think of it as a translator for your engine's language. The tool is a valuable resource for the at-home mechanic as it reveals whether a car’s problem is something you can fix yourself or one which will require a trip to the shop.

At $100 a pop, buying one of these only makes sense if you’re convinced you can save money in the long run. Those with older or modified cars will benefit from having an OBD-II in the garage, but unless you’re a die-hard DIYer, owners with time left on their warranties have no reason to shell out for the tool.
