— Gabriel Malor Happy Wednesday.
Fandango reports that the Hunger Games has sold out almost 2,000 theaters in advance of Friday's release, making it the top-selling franchise opener and non-sequel in Fandango's nearly 12-year history. I don't really know what the movie's about, except that it's a post-apocalyptic to-the-death reality show (like Rollerball, Death Race, the Running Man, etc.) with teens, but the kids love it and it sounds like this is supposed to be either the next Harry Potter or the next Twilight.
Analysts say the Fed fudged its "stress test" for two TARP banks, so they could be green-lighted to repay their outstanding TARP loans. Although analysts and, apparently, the banks' shareholders thought Regions Financial and Zions Bankcorp. would fail the stress test, the Fed gave them better grades than many of their larger rivals.
This comes with the BREAKING NEWS caveat that what is reported may change rapidly or be corrected: French police are in a shooting standoff with the Islamist jack-hole who killed French soldiers and Jews. They have orders to take the 24 year-old alive, probably because of reports that he wasn't working alone.
Venerable bands KISS and Motley Crue are getting together for a 40-show U.S. tour. They swear this is not a f***ing joke.
Ron Paul has declined Secret Service protection because, he says, Secret Service is welfare. He was on Leno, so maybe he was joking?

Next up is LA which has been polling as an easy win for Sanatarium. But I will guarantee the MFM, including Fox, will not play it up as much as IL. I'm glad I get Fox Business now so I don't have to look at them kissing Mutt's ass all day.

Quote:
The problem for conservative and libertarian federalists is that whenever we talk about federalism, the Left hears "states' rights" - which is then immediately, and unfairly, translated into, "Bring back Bull Connor."
End
I really hate that bull shit term "States rights". I have been hearing it for a long damn time and, like Crony Capitalism" it is the wrong term to use which is common among Dems. It is not States Rights, it IS Federal Government limitations. The powers of the States are many and not defined while the powers of the federal government are few and defined.

Oops. I see that I wrong about that. First report I read didn't mention his religious affiliation but the second report did.
Frankly, when I heard that a rabbi and three Jewish children had been murdered, the first thought that occured to me was that the shooter was a Muzzie and that was BEFORE French authorities tracked this guy down.

"What makes him a expert and what church has him for a pastor? "
Good questions. We could ask the same ones of the Wrong Reverend Wright, except for the church part, that we already know. They are professional racists, keeping alive a thought that died for many of us a long time ago. I look at the content of their character and find it sadly wanting in so many areas.

"What happened to that story about black teens setting a white kid on fire?"
Your friendly local Progressive Pravda has deemed that to be a non-story as it doesn't fit the Approved Party Line which reads thusly: (and I'm paraphrasing here) All RaceCrime is only committed by elite White People of means, regardless of their skin color, against poor disadvantaged black youths, who have always been subjected to the oppression of the white man, of which this latest tragedy is merely the tip of the iceberg in Racist Goddamn Amerika.

Heh. I hope Gene Simmons climbs on his capitalist soapbox to rip the SCOAMF a new one every couple of days during their tour.
He's a hardcore capitalist and doesn't care for what's going on in Washington theses days, and he tends to be rather vocal about it.

The events of February 26 reported in the media are also totally inaccurate. Out of respect for the on-going investigation, I will not discuss specifics. However, the media reports of the events are imaginary at best. At no time did George follow or confront Mr. Martin. When the true details of the event become public, and I hope that will be soon, everyone should be outraged by the treatment of George Zimmerman in the media."
Is anyone surprised that the MFM's story is totally false?

Why should the family of the shooter be considered any more credible than the family of the victim? Shouldn't they both be considered suspect?
I'll stick with the 911 recording and the forensic report. Seems to paint the clearest picture of what happened.
Posted by: Gabriel Malor at March 21, 2012 03:58 AM (+zL0z)
The Hunger Games trilogy was good. Very good. It's targeted at young adults but contains very mature subject matter.
It's extremely bleak and there is a lot of not only kids killing each other with edged weapons, but kids being horrifically killed by booby traps built into the arena by the government.
The larger themes of totalitarianism and the decadence and pampered sloth of the ruling elite made it interesting enough to tolerate the teen romantic angst angle. The world of Panem could have been fleshed out more; there is no mention of other countries or of how the USA fell. You only know what the characters know, which is fuck-all, because the only thing the Capitol is willing to share is the heel of a jackboot.
Highly recommend.

I apply the 24 hour rule, or in the case of this case, the one week rule. I'll believe someone when the entire story comes out, which is what Zimmerman's father says.
And when someone accuses the MFM of lying I tend to believe them jut based on the MFM's track record in this shit.

The police have orders to take him alive, because they think he had accomplices and they want to beat it out of him. His mother, sister, and brother have already been arrested.

Not just the kids. My wife and I both read it and liked it. My wife has read the other two in the series. I hadn't realized they were coming out as movies before I read the first one, so now I'm torn- I want to know what happens, but I hate reading a book before the movie comes out. The movie always sucks in comparison. If I just watch the movie first, it doesn't suck so bad.

Also, unless you specifically enroll in a post-paid plan on Verizon rather than one of the normal pre-paid plans (and there's no reason to do this really) you get notified before you hit your cap and can either buy more data or your 4g is shut off until your regular billing date.
It isn't some big conspiracy to generate massive bills by causing you to unknowingly blow past your data cap.

CNN and CNBC and FBN are way more palatable and it's easy to keep them on and get all the information you need for the day and more. If you keep a talk radio station going that is local, you fill in the local news all day. Fox news, with all it's scandals in Britain, is finally turning people off cause more of them are turning fox off. someome on here chastized me for not watching fox.

That's the Joo-controlled French media manipulating the facts to keep their hold on decadent Western society. The shooter's real name will always be a secret, but he was probably Amish, or maybe modern Orthodox.
It was a set-up to turn public opinion away from the peaceful Muslims who have immigrated to the South of France and who are building wonderful, close-knit communities where they can live their lives peacefully while coexisting with the native French population (as long as they keep their filthy whore women off the streets and don't sell pork).

Ain't that the truth. More than that, if they can they'll show a montage of pictures- from that 12th birthday through graduation just to reinforce the idea.
Conversely, if the criminal is a white guy, the only picture they show is the creepiest looking mugshot they can find of the guy.
Personally, I think anyone not immediately complying with whatever a police officer says is asking for trouble- up-to and including getting shot. They're in a profession where they could get killed for pulling someone over- I don't want them trigger happy, but I'm not (as a rule) going to second guess a cop who shoots a suspect without a lot of evidence suggesting actual bad behavior.

The cold-blooded nature and apparent extreme racist motive for the attacks have shocked France and unsettled political leaders in the midst of what had been a no-holds-barred campaign for next monthÂ’s presidential election.
François Molins, the Paris prosecutor overseeing what has been classified an antiterrorist investigation, said investigators were working urgently to identify and find the killer, who he noted had established a pattern of killing every four days. Mr Molins said no line of inquiry had been ruled out, including the possible link to a group of neo-Nazi paratroopers ejected four years ago from the same regiment as the three dead soldiers. He said the killer’s actions were premeditated and well prepared, including knowing the racial origin and religion of his victims. He confirmed the three soldiers killed were all Muslim.
FINANCIAL TIMES
--
Of Mohammed Merah suspected of killing seven people, French Interior Minister Guéant said the suspect claimed to be a member of Al Qaida and to have killed the students at the Jewish school Monday to "avenge" the deaths of Palestinian children, and killed the three soldiers of North African descent because of France's military intervention in Afghanistan.

A prosecution official in Paris named the suspect as Mohammed Merah, 23. He was born in Toulouse, said Elisabeth Allanic, a magistrate at the Prosecutors Office.
The suspect is accused of killing seven people in the last 10 days: a rabbi and three children at a Jewish school on Monday, and three soldiers of north African origin who had recently returned from Afghanistan in two earlier incidents.
What a surprise. The MFM originally jumped to the conclusion that the shootings were by some right winger. Now that the truth is out watch this story disappear quickly.

WeÂ’re at $600 now, but I think Apple has much further to go from here. If things play out as I expect, Apple will hit $1,650 by the end of 2015. HereÂ’s how.

I don't think they did. I think they reported that way to protect their beloved "Religion of Pieces." Just like when they made Tom Clancy's "Sum of all Fears" into a movie and changed the badguys from Islamic Terrorists to "neo-nazis."
They know it's Islamic Terror, but they refuse to report it that way. I'm not sure why, but it's probably pathological.

BOCA RATON, Fla. -- A Florida Atlantic University student was caught on video threatening to kill her professor and several classmates.
The incident was captured by several students in class on their iphones and already the video has gone viral. The outburst so violent, the student had to be removed from class by two FAU employees.
The violent outburst occurred in the middle of an evolution class at FAU in Boca Raton. An outburst students say starts while Professor Steven Kajiura is reviewing for a midterm.
"They were talking about natural selection. They were talking about peacocks and how females choose their mates by their most feathers and the woman started asking about how that killed all black people," said one FAU student.
Students say that's when the girl snaps, ranting and threatening to kill Professor Kaijura and several of her classmates.
"You better shut up before I kill you," the student yelled to her professor on the video.

Amen.
All these commercial versions of PBS (History, Discovery, etc) have grossly simplified programming. How many more WW2 shows can they air?
Half their remaining stuff now is about Nostrodamus and Ancient Aliens. The same shows float up on several of these channels. Worse, because of the commercials, half the shows consist of recaps of what was just shown before the break.
Equally annoying, the history shows often speak about a subject but the illustrative image on the screen is actually something different: all the time, they'll talk about King X but have Y's image on screen. Or the wrong city. Or show Charlemagne standing in an 18th century baroque church. Stupid crap, like that.

Grayson is definitely running. He practiced last week with that red light. Weiner? I wouldn't put it past him. He's a very special elite: His wife is Hillary's girlfriend.
But lose the House? What the fuck? I wouldn't trust an insider for anything. For one thing, he's an insider. Therefore, he lives in the DC elitist bubble where anyone to the right of Obama is considered too scary and gauche. For another thing, he did what people have to do to become an insider... and while I don't know the specifics, I can guess that it was probably illegal, immoral, unethical, and icky.

“Domestic priorities will have to be drastically slashed” under the Ryan plan, said Nancy Zirkin, executive vice president of the blood sucking Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, at a “prebuttal” rally outside of the American Enterprise Institute, where the Wisconsin Republican presented his budget plan this morning.
Waving pre-printed black and yellow signs that read “Hands Off My Medicare” and “Hands Off My Medicaid,” organizers at the event pledged to revive the town hall meetings that followed Ryan’s release last year of a budget plan that would have partially privatized Medicare.

Yesterday, both campaigns' mailings arrived.
Santorum's was a typical type mass mailing folded into quarters to fit in a small square, white envelope.
Romney's was in a large glossy dark blue 9X11 folder, including an 8x10 glossy photo of himself wearing creased blue jeans posing in front of a barn with a photoshopped US flag added in the open doorway, and tractor parked in view. The typed message emphasized "Love".

The conspiracy theorists wouldn't believe it anyway. There are actually two good introductory books, *Freemasonry for Dummies* and *A Complete Idiots Guide to Freemasonry*, that are both written by brother masons. I have the good fortune to count one of them, Brent Morris, as a good friend. You will occaisionally see Brent in those shows rebutting some bullsh!t statement some cretin made about the fraternity.
The secrets have to deal with modes of recognition and some of the ritual work. You can go to the library and internet to find them. Of course, you have to seperate the wheat from the chaff. I and every other brother that took his oaths seriously just won't tell you. However, the real secret of Freemasonry is what makes a brother drop what he is doing in order to help another brother that he may not even know.
Some of the brethren are happy to take their three degrees, pay their dues faithfully and never attend lodge. Frankly, they are missing the best part of the fraternity.

I don't think any of them will drop out.

Can't wait for a brokered convention. Even though someone tried to scare people last night by saying it was rove's way to put jeb bush in place. Teh poster claimed annie and ace got on the romney band wagon cause they didn't want jeb. But others think it's to put palin in place so that would seem to be more of a reason for annie and ace to get on the romney bandwagon.
I think the convention will be very interesting.

My wife and I were talking about this, and it's really not so bad. Most of the really gory deaths can be "abstracted" where they show just enough to let you know what's going to happen, and the cut to Katnis's face and show her reaction, rather than actually showing the gore.

Once upon a time this muslim murderer's live capture would have been good. It would mean that he would be tried, convicted, and tied to an upright wagon wheel in the town square, whereupon his bones would have all been broken, one by one, with an iron bar.
Alas, nowadays it means he'll get a brief stay in a custom built, muz-compliant prison, then be released into the wild or take his place among academia.

My almost-15-year-old has had her ticket for Hunger Games for 3 weeks. She has been talking nonstop about this movie for months, has spent hours on the Internet searching and watching every trailer and snip of bootleg footage, etc. etc. She wasn't a big Twilight fan and was too young for the Harry Potter phenomenon. This movie and set of books is her age group's big thing. She's kind of a tough girl and loves the fighting and revolutionary aspect of the story, as opposed to Twilight which is just another romance story only with vampires.
I would not underestimate the impact of this group of books and movies on this age group's eventual political views. My daughter despises Obama, and hates all forms of cult celebrity and political worship. Hunger Games is a story of a revolution led by teens against a brutal totalitarian state. It is more or less this generation's "Atlas Shrugged."

BTW, if anyone can stomach Matt Taibbi, his latest screed in Rolling Stone is about Bank of America and it is great, great, great. This guy is a leftwing a-hole and pissed off everyone when he celebrated Breitbart's death, but he really understands the nefarious nature of our big banks and their unholy alliance with the government better than anyone who is writing today. It's a shame he is such a dick, because he is so blinded by hate for the Right he can't see that we agree with him on the banks.
Here's a snip:
Anyone who wants to know what the Occupy Wall Street protests are all about need only look at the way Bank of America does business. It comes down to this: These guys are some of the very biggest assholes on Earth. They lie, cheat and steal as reflexively as addicts, they laugh at people who are suffering and don't have money, they pay themselves huge salaries with money stolen from old people and taxpayers – and on top of it all, they completely suck at banking. And yet the state won't let them go out of business, no matter how much they deserve it, and it won't slap them in jail, no matter what crimes they commit. That makes them not bankers or capitalists, but a class of person that was never supposed to exist in America: royalty.
Self-appointed royalty, it's true – but just as dumb and inbred as the real thing, and every bit as expensive to support. Like all royals, they reached their position in society by being relentlessly dedicated to the cause of Bigness, Unaccountability and the Worthlessness of Others. And just like royals, they spend most of their lives getting deeper in debt, and laughing every year when our taxes go to covering their whist markers. Two and a half centuries after we kicked out the British, it's really come to this?

The first book is all about the horrors a totalitarian society can inflict on its subjects. The districts are all post-apocalyptic versions of US regions (the dictatorial district in charge is called The Capital, you can guess what that is supposed to reflect, and the district the heroine and hero are from is a poor mining district, probably meant to be Appalachia.) The story is mostly about what happens one year at the games (a fight-to-the death contest among children from the various subject regions), but it also touches on how much the day-to-day lives suck under the totalitarian regime.
The second book is really just a retread of the first, but with a mixture of kids and adults. It's entertaining because the new characters that are introduced are interesting, but it is the weakest of the three books, in my opinion.
The third book is the most interesting because it depicts what happens when the subjects rise up and revolt against the dictatorship. What is great about it is that it doesn't treat the new government as some sort of knight on a white horse. The new government is more like a communist government than a representative democracy, so it gradually begins to exhibit its own injustices that are as bad as The Capital's.

My 11 year-old loved the books, but didn't think she wanted to see the movie (she thought the darkness in the books would be too much on the screen - what can I say? She's a pretty self-aware kid). Having read them (I try to read most things my daughter reads), I tend to agree.
I read in a Wall Street Journal article that they downplayed the romance angle in the film to make it more attractive to young males (who generally didn't like the Twilight p.o.s.). So, I expect it'll be mostly an action flick.
I'd read the rest of the trilogy now rather than waiting, because it sounds like the movie(s) will be substantially different from the books.
