A set of items of the same type in which each item points to ("is linked to") the next item in the list. Ordering of items is not part of the definition, therefore, we will not consider the ordering. Yet determined according to the usage.
NOTE: Since sequence of elements is not part of definition of a linked list, many other structures can be implemented using Linked Lists.
E.g. if items are ordered according to the sequence of insertion into the list, this corresponds to a stack, in which the top item is pointed by the list
head pointer.
Head pointer
- List head is a special pointer to the first item in the list.
- The last node(rear) points to a NULL address
- In processing a list, any node can only be accessed after having accessed all other nodes before it. This property might also be called, in other words, Strict Sequential Access (SSA).

After implementing the node class, now we can implement stacks, queues and the like. Let me implement these structures by using Linked List logic.
Stack, Queue Properties
-
Stack
-
If the items are ordered according to the sequence of insertion into the list, this corresponds to a stack.In other words, First In Last Out (FILO) or Last In First Out (LIFO)
-
Queue
-
A queue is a data structure consisting of a list of items and two pointers to the "front" and "rear" items in the list. Items can only inserted at the rear and removed only at the front. i.e. FIFO (First In First Out) operation.
I will implement these classes in another article.
ENJOY!!!!

Poet, activist Sandile Dikeni dies
by Kaveel SinghRenowned South African writer, activist and poet Sandile Dikeni has died. He was 53.
"I think Sandile for me was somebody who was able to reflect the mood of the nation in poetry in a way very few people would. He was an amazing poet, but also a truly remarkable human being," said Ryland Fisher, the former Cape Times editor who knew Dikeni since the 1980s.
Fisher said he was unique in his expression of words and art.
He employed Dikeni as the newspaper's arts and lifestyle editor, describing him as a talented artist and leader.
Fisher said that when he appointed Dikeni, there was controversy in the newsroom.
"It caused a huge outrage and uproar. We have to remember that during that time, there were 90% white people in the newsroom. He was also not a journalist, but a poet."
Fisher added that he and Dikeni discussed the backlash.
"I remember him realising there would be a backlash. We talked about it a lot because I was in the same situation. We spent many moments together talking about these issues and the complexities behind them."
However, Dikeni soon proved his detractors wrong.
"He ended up being an amazing addition to the newspaper and helped the lifestyle section grow greatly. He went far beyond anyone's expectations. We became a lot closer during that time."'
Remembering Dikeni
Fisher said he had fond memories of Dikeni from the early 1980s.
"We knew each other from the early 80s when he was at the University of the Western Cape as a young activist. Back then, he wrote angry poems."
He said that as time went on, Dikeni's poetry evolved.
"As we went on in the 90s he started writing hopeful poems about the beauty of our country. He would even write some romance poems."
Serious accident
Fisher said that after a serious car accident about a decade ago, Dikeni "was not the same".
"There was a lot of memory loss apart from physical injuries. When I would bump into him in recent years, he would struggle to remember me. But he would always look at me, and eventually place who I was."
Dikeni served as the spokesperson for the South African Minister of Housing and was one of SA's foremost social commentators.
He was also and editor of Die Suid-Afrikaan, as well as a reporter there.
He also established the youth radio station Yfm, according to a short biography on Africa Leadership Initiative's website. Dikeni was a part of the first cohort of fellows of the initiative.
He had an extensive career in the arts, having published the poetry collections Guava Juice and Telegraph to the Sky as well as an anthology of his newspaper articles and essays, Soul Fire: Writing the Transition.
Word of his passing drew condolences and tributes from members of the arts and media industries.

ATAC-seq of the intraerythrocytic development cycle –
ATAC-seq analysis of tightly synchronized parasites (Pfal3D7 10G and 1.2B subclones) at four different developmental stages
during the IDC: early rings (10-15 h, T10), late rings (20-25 h, T20), trophozoites (30-35 h, T30) and schizonts (40-45 h, T40).
Ruiz et al.
Copy Number Variation Pipeline Bug Fix: To correct skewed copy number predictions, we changed the method for counting reads in our
CNV pipeline from Cufflinks to HTSeq-Count. In our new pipeline we calculate FPKM manually. Please note - saved strategies
that include CNV searches will likely produce different results in Release 46.
Our pipeline of genomic analyses includes open reading frames (ORFs) prediction in addition to loading gene models from the official annotation.
Because data usage analysis showed low ORF usage, in our next release (47) predicted ORFs will be available as a genome-scale fasta file from
our downloads section and removed from the searches and genome browser. Please Contact Us
with questions or suggestions.

My friend John camps yearly at the Little River State Park near Waterbury, Vermont. We booked two sites back in September of 2019, intending to camp there together with our partners. He could not join us due to COVID, but my spouse and I decided to go anyway.
Travelling during COVID is stressful. Travelling to Vermont was easier - when we arrived, it was the only “green” state in the US with regards to COVID prevalence. A week of no cell-service, campfires, hikes, starry skies, and the sounds of birds and bugs was just what I needed to recharge and refresh.
I read two books on the trip, both of which were excellent. A Field Guide to Getting Lost by Rebecca Solnit, and The Decipherment of Linear B by John Chadwick. The former is great for campfire musings about the big questions, while the latter is fun if you’re into Ancient Greek history and really hard puzzles.

NAME
libvirtd - libvirtd management daemonSYNOPSIS
libvirtd [ -dlv ] [ -f config_file ] [ -p pid_file ] [ -t timeout_seconds ]DESCRIPTION
The libvirtd program is the server side daemon component of the libvirt virtualization management system.This daemon runs on host servers and performs required management tasks for virtualized guests. This includes activities such as starting, stopping and migrating guests between host servers, configuring and manipulating networking, and managing storage for use by guests.
The libvirt client libraries and utilities connect to this daemon to issue tasks and collect information about the configuration and resources of the host system and guests.
By default, the libvirtd daemon listens for requests on a local Unix domain socket. Using the -l|--listen command line option, the libvirtd daemon can be instructed to additionally listen on a TCP/IP socket. The TCP/IP socket to use is defined in the libvirtd configuration file.
Restarting libvirtd does not impact running guests. Guests continue to operate and will be picked up automatically if their XML configuration has been defined. Any guests whose XML configuration has not been defined will be lost from the configuration.
OPTIONS
- -d, --daemon
- Run as a daemon & write PID file.
- -f, --config FILE
- Use this configuration file, overriding the default value.
- -l, --listen
- Listen for TCP/IP connections.
- -p, --pid-file FILE
- Use this name for the PID file, overriding the default value.
- -t, --timeout SECONDS
- Exit after timeout period (in seconds) expires.
- -v, --verbose
- Enable output of verbose messages.
- --version
- Display version information then exit.
SIGNALS
On receipt of SIGHUP libvirtd will reload its configuration.FILES
-<EMAIL_ADDRESS>- The default configuration file used by libvirtd, unless overridden on the command line using the -f|--config option.
- @localstatedir@/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock
- @localstatedir@/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro
- The sockets libvirtd will use when run as root.
- $HOME/.libvirt/libvirt-sock
- The socket libvirtd will use when run as a non-root user.
-<EMAIL_ADDRESS>- The TLS Certificate Authority certificate libvirtd will use.
-<EMAIL_ADDRESS>- The TLS Server certificate libvirtd will use.
-<EMAIL_ADDRESS>- The TLS Server private key libvirtd will use.
- @remote_pid_file@
- The PID file to use, unless overridden by the -p|--pid-file option.
EXAMPLES
To retrieve the version of libvirtd:
# libvirtd --version libvirtd (libvirt) 0.8.2 #
To start libvirtd, instructing it to daemonize and create a PID file:
# libvirtd -d # ls -la -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Jul 9 02:40 #

The Zen of Python, by TimPeters:
- Beautiful is better than ugly.
- Explicit is better than implicit.
- Simple is better than complex.
- Complex is better than complicated.
- Flat is better than nested.
- Sparse is better than dense.
- Readability counts.
- Special cases aren’t special enough to break the rules.
- Although practicality beats purity.
- Errors should never pass silently.
- Unless explicitly silenced.
- In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess. There should be one – and preferably only one – obvious way to - do it. Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you’re - Dutch.
- Now is better than never.
- Although never is often better than right now.
- If the implementation is hard to explain, it’s a bad idea.
- If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.
- Namespaces are one honking great idea – let’s do more of those!
Python was designed to be highly extensible. The core of the language is small but it is supported by the large standard library. The design of Python offers some support for functional programming in the Lisp tradition.
An important goal of the Python developers is making Python fun to use. This is reflected in the origin of the name which comes from Monty Python,[44] and in an occasionally playful approach to tutorials and reference materials, such as using examples that refer to spam and eggs instead of the standard foo and bar.[


Message
Unexpected foo attribute on bar element
Explanation
Your feed contains elements with attributes that are not defined in the
relevant specifications. Perhaps this is a typo (remember that XML is
case-sensitive; for example, isPermalink
and
isPermaLink
have no relation to each other,
and only the latter has any meaning in the RSS 2.0 standard).
If you are trying to extend RSS, a new element in its own namespace is likely to be more flexible, and less liable to cause interoperability problems.
Solution
Correct the attributes, or move the information into a namespaced element.
Not clear? Disagree?
You might be able to find help in one of these fine resources.

The idea of A Soup Story came up as we were eating at a newly-discovered Japanese restaurant. We are always looking at new places to eat, especially when we see good reviews and advertisements on Facebook. "Is it really that good?" - that is the question. We thought that this would be a good way to encourage us to try out new places to eat, and hopefully, you too, because there are so many restaurants, cafes, hawker centres and food courts out there, so how can we stick to just a few in our lives?
Authors' Note: Everything said on here is just two opinions of many and we are by no means food critics. So feel free to agree, or disagree, with our views. All we're doing is eating and writing, and we definitely do not mean any harm or ill-intent to anyone.


In mathematics, specifically in elementary algebra, given an equation between two fractions or rational expressions, one can cross-multiply to simplify the equation or determine the value of a variable.

Each piece represents a fraction of the day. The largest represents a ½ day (2-1), followed counter-clockwise by ¼, ⅛th and so on. The smallest time interval represents 2-16th of one day (about 1.318 seconds).
You can't (easily). So what's the point? To look at time as divisions of a day. When an interval passes, it transitions to up (it is "on"). For example, after half a day, the 2-1 will be up and you can tell it's past noon. Evening (6pm) would be denoted by the left two indicators (2-1 and 2-2) being active.

The reason I'm A Celeb's Caitlyn Jenner 'doesn't speak to her son Brody'
He starred in The Hills
by Helen FearCaitlyn Jenner is recognised for many reasons - her Olympic career, for being a transgender role model and, now, for appearing on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
But some would say she's best known for her very famous children - six biological, and four step-kids.

But before Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Caitlyn's most famous offspring, was The Hills star Brody Jenner.
However, you might not find her talking about him in the jungle.
In what is another secret sadness for the parent of six biological children, Caitlyn's relationship with son Brody has been strained for more than a year.

Recent photos from Caitlyn's "special birthday dinner" in October gave a hint to the sad feud...
Although Kendall, Kylie, Kim and Khloe Kardashian were present, as was Caitlyn's son Brandon - Brody was noticeably absent.
According to The Sun, Caitlyn hasn’t spoken to her son Brody in a year after she missed his wedding to Kaitlynn Carter in Bali last year.
The newspaper reports that Caitlyn chose to party in Austria, instead of attending Brody's intimate nuptials.
Although the pair do occasionally come together for family events - for example in May to support Brandon's new music video - their relationship is said to have broken down.
The newspaper says that 70-year-old Caitlyn has had a strained relationship with Brody over the years and they ceased contact after she failed to attend his wedding.
Brody is Caitlyn's youngest son with her second wife Linda Thomspon, with whom she also shares son Brandon.
An insider said: "It's never been the easiest relationship. For a long time, Brody had to watch his dad play happy families with the Kardashians and it hurt, because Caitlyn was never around for him so Brody felt that he didn't have much of a father.
"But when Caitlyn transitioned, Brody regarded it as a fresh start - he believed his dad's talk of being deeply unhappy for years, and under the control of Kris, so Brody wanted to give it a go."
The insider then claimed that Caitlyn wasn't receptive to "re-establishing a family bond", adding: "Then when Caitlyn cancelled on his wedding, Brody was done.
"Saying he'd had enough and wasn't going to hang around anymore when his dad was never going to change. They haven't spoken in around a year now."
Brody, who has since split from Kaitlynn, previously addressed Caitlyn missing his wedding, saying: "Not having my dad at the wedding, it was a bummer."
Caitlyn is also hiding another family tragedy while in the jungle, the tragic death of his brother Burt.

Inline and Inline Block are two ways to specify the display of an element. They determine how the element is going to be placed in the structure of the webpage. They also determine how you can affect the position of that element or the dimensions of it e.g the width or height of the element.
Inline effectively displays each element in one line until the width of the content is too much to fit on the page, where it then starts a new line and places elements on that line. This means that you cannot control the height or width of each element, and also that the position of each element is simply in the order that they are placed on the page.
As you can see here there is no space allowed for the larger dimensions of the boxes as inline does not acknowledge the height or width settings of an element, only the space that the content takes.
Block on the other hand starts on a new line with each element, and each element will take up the full width of the screen. You can set your own width and height values for Block which is helpful for images and other shapes that you may want to edit on your page.
As shown in the diagram above, the boxes have the full space for their dimensions and also take up the full width of the parent element they are placed inside, meaning the other text has to begin on a line below.
Inline-Block is a combination of Inline and Block because it allows the user to change the width and height of the element as in Block, but also allows elements to sit next to each other (they do not have to each be on a new line) similar to the way that Inline works with placing elements next to each other.
The shapes have their dimensions properly respected with no overlap from other elements, but also don't take up any more room than their dimensions, meaning other elements can be placed next to them as though they were simply inline elements.
Ultimately the main difference between Inline and Inline-Block is that Inline-Block allows the full dimensions of the element, letting the user set different heights and widths while still placing elements in line with each other, whereas inline will simply take the minimum space possible for each element allowing only enough room for the content of the element.

TOTAL RENAL CARE DOUBLES SECOND-QUARTER REVENUE,
TRIPLES EARNINGS, AND INCREASES EPS BY 83 %
ON MORE SHARES
COMPANY CONTINUES WAVE OF STRATEGIC ACQUISITIONS AND STARTUPS
ANCILLARY SERVICES ALSO CONTRIBUTE
Recent Highlights:
Revenues more than doubled in the quarter, climbing 110 % to $64.6 million from $30.7 million in the corresponding period of 1995. Net income tripled to $5.7 million, or 22 cents per share, based on 26.6 million weighted average shares outstanding. The Company posted net income of $1.9 million, or 12 cents per share, based on 15.5 million weighted average shares outstanding in the second quarter of 1995. All 1995 figures are restated to reflect a change in the Company's fiscal year-end to December 31 from May 31.
"We continue our overall aggressive, disciplined expansion strategy to increase our market presence in geographic areas that we currently serve through acquisitions, de novo developments, and hospital alliances, and to develop a meaningful presence in new geographic areas by acquiring networks of centers," stated Victor M.G. Chaltiel, TRL Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Fast Growth for a Leading Position
"With our strategic, aggressive yet disciplined program of dialysis-center startups and acquisitions, we're expanding our share and consolidating our leading position in the increasing number of markets in which we compete," said Chaltiel.
For the first six months, revenues rose 104.1 % to $114.8 million from $56.3 million in 1995. Net income for the first six months was up 245 % to $10 million, or 40 cents per share, based on 24.9 million weighted average shares outstanding, versus $2.9 million, or 19 cents per share, based on 15.4 million shares a year ago.
The Company has increased its number of treatment facilities through acquisitions and start-ups from 54 at the end of the calendar 1995 second quarter to 114 at the end of the second quarter of 1996 and 120 as of August 1, 1996. Twelve centers have been added since the Company completed a secondary equity offering in April. Primarily as a result of this expansion, TRL now serves approximately 9,000 patients with end-stage renal disease (ERSD) versus 7,600 at the end of the first quarter in 1996. The Company is the nation's third-largest provider of dialysis services.
Earnings Rise Faster Than Revenues
Net income is gaining at a faster rate than revenue for several reasons, according to Chaltiel.
"In addition to benefiting from our start-up and acquisition strategy, we're achieving an increasing contribution from ancillary programs such as laboratory and pharmacy services," he said. "Also, with our July 22 bond buy-back and the proceeds from our equity offerings, our interest expense has declined significantly. While continuing to add critical resources, we are keeping our overhead under control and spreading these expenses over a larger revenue base."
"The Company's laboratory, relocated to central Florida in the first quarter 1996, now serves most of TRL's dialysis centers, except our more recent acquisitions. Our lab provides a unified data base of clinical outcomes in a state-of-the-art setting," Chaltiel said. "Lab tests add about $13 in revenue per dialysis treatment, or currently about $12 million per year on an annualized basis."
"The benefit to earnings of our recent acquisitions will begin to be fully realized in the third quarter," Chaltiel concluded.
Repurchase of 12 % Discount Notes
With the recent purchase of 43% of its outstanding 12% Senior Subordinated Discount Notes, the Company has now retired 62% of this debt. In August 1994, the Company completed a $100 million offering of the Discount Notes.
Torrance, California-based Total Renal Care Holdings, Inc. is the third largest provider of integrated dialysis services in the U.S. for patients suffering from chronic kidney failure. The Company owns and operates high-quality, free-standing kidney dialysis centers and home peritoneal dialysis programs in 16 states, Washington, D.C. and Guam and also provides high-quality acute hemodialysis services to inpatients on behalf of 81 hospitals. TRL has increased its number of outpatient dialysis facilities to 120 with 1,759 stations, and provides services to approximately 9,000 patients. The Company additionally operates ESRD laboratory and pharmacy facilities, as well as vascular access management and transplant services programs.

Paragraph 1 goes here...
- Don't Repeat Yourself: DRY is a principle of software development which states that "Every piece of knowledge must have a single, unambiguous, authoritative representation within a system." By not writing the same information over and over again, our code is more maintainable, more extensible, and less buggy.
- Convention Over Configuration: Rails has opinions about the best way to do many things in a web application, and defaults to this set of conventions, rather than require that you specify every minutiae through endless configuration files.
- Rails is Opinionated: Rails is said to be “opinionated.” There is a “Rails way” for many of the problems that must be solved by a web application developer. If you follow the Rails conventions, you’ll have fewer decisions to make and you’ll find more of what you need is already built. The benefit is faster development, improved collaboration, and easier maintenance. The downside is lower flexibility. If you persist in bringing old habits from other languages to your Rails development, and trying to use patterns you learned elsewhere, you may have a less happy experience.
- Rails is Omakase: Omakase is a Japanese phrase that means “I’ll leave it to you.” Heinemeier Hansson declared Rails is Omakase, and said, “A team of chefs picked out the ingredients, designed the APIs, and arranged the order of consumption on your behalf according to their idea of what would make for a tasty full-stack framework. Understanding that Rails is omakase means accepting that many of the opinions enshrined in the Rails API are the decisions of a small number of leading developers, after they have undergone thorough discussion and made significant contributions to the Rails code base. For the most part, Heinemeier Hansson’s “opinions” will serve you well.
Rails combine the Ruby language with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to create a web application that runs on a web server. Because it runs on a web server, Rails is considered as a server-side, or “back end” web application development platform (the web browser is the "front end”). A web development framework like Rails is needed to build complex websites.
We just covered some very brief facts about Rails. In the future we will explore Rails in greater depth to see how it actually works to help contructing a complex website.

BROADWAY BOUND A film review by Ken Johnson Copyright 1992 Ken Johnson
106 min., not rated, Drama/Comedy, 1992 Director: Paul Bogart Cast: Anne Bancroft, Hume Cronyn, Corey Parker, Jonathan Silverman, Jerry Orbach, Michele Lee
BROADWAY BOUND takes place in Brighton Beach, New York in 1948. Brothers Corey Parker and Jonathan Silverman are working on a sketch that they think might get them into television writing. Michele Lee, Parker's aunt, tries to convince Hume Cronyn, Parker's grandfather, to move to Florida with his wife. Cronyn doesn't want to because he likes it on Brighton Beach. Anne Bancroft (Parker's mother) and Jerry Orbach's (Parker's father) marriage is threatened by their frequent arguments.
BROADWAY BOUND was written for television by Neil Simon based on his play. It is a sequel to Simon's earlier play BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS, which was made into a movie in 1986. Jonathan Silverman was Eugene in the movie version of BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS. In BROADWAY BOUND, Jonathan Silverman plays Stan, Eugene's older brother. BROADWAY BOUND continues the story from BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS, which was set in the 1930's.
I found BROADWAY BOUND to be both a funny and touching film. Like most of Neil Simon's plays, BROADWAY BOUND has dramatic roots. The family is in danger of being broken up. The sons are trying to get into television comedy writing which at times gets them all stressed out. The parents are having problems living together and are constantly fighting. This causes a conflict with the boys too, because they are aware of the fighting but aren't supposed to talk about it. The grandfather's wife, who the grandfather hasn't lived with for years, has to move to Florida because she can't take the cold winters and one of his daughters wants him to go down to live with his wife because his daughter thinks that he is getting too old for cold winters too. But yet, though out the film there are comedy bits thrown in such that they don't take away from the dramatic part of the film but provide a relief so that the drama doesn't get too heavy and bog you down.
BROADWAY BOUND is heavier on the drama than BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS was and a little bit lighter on the comedy. I definitely recommend BROADWAY BOUND for any fan of Neil Simon or anybody who saw BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS and liked it. This would probably not be the best film for someone who easily gets depressed because there are some very sad scenes in the film. On a scale of zero to five, I give BROADWAY BOUND a four. BROADWAY BOUND is made-for-television, ABC to be specific, so it doesn't contain anything objectionable. Because it is made-for- television, if you missed it, you will either have to wait for it to be repeated, find a friend who taped it, or watch to see if it comes to video in several months.
BROADWAY BOUND is one of those films that is written so well you actually start believing that the people in it are real. In fact, this film may be semi-autobiographical since BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS was semi-autobiographical. Because the characters are so believable, I found my self feeling sorry for one of them when something went wrong and happy when something went right. That is one of the things that made me like this movie.

To all iPhone customers:
I have received hundreds of emails from iPhone customers who are upset about Apple dropping the price of iPhone by $200 two months after it went on sale. After reading every one of these emails, I have some observations and conclusions.
First, I am sure that we are making the correct decision to lower the price of the 8GB iPhone from $599 to $399, and that now is the right time to do it. iPhone is a breakthrough product, and we have the chance to 'go for it' this holiday season. iPhone is so far ahead of the competition, and now it will be affordable by even more customers. It benefits both Apple and every iPhone user to get as many new customers as possible in the iPhone 'tent'. We strongly believe the $399 price will help us do just that this holiday season.
Second, being in technology for 30+ years I can attest to the fact that the technology road is bumpy. There is always change and improvement, and there is always someone who bought a product before a particular cutoff date and misses the new price or the new operating system or the new whatever. This is life in the technology lane. If you always wait for the next price cut or to buy the new improved model, you'll never buy any technology product because there is always something better and less expensive on the horizon. The good news is that if you buy products from companies that support them well, like Apple tries to do, you will receive years of useful and satisfying service from them even as newer models are introduced.
Third, even though we are making the right decision to lower the price of iPhone, and even though the technology road is bumpy, we need to do a better job taking care of our early iPhone customers as we aggressively go after new ones with a lower price. Our early customers trusted us, and we must live up to that trust with our actions in moments like these.
Therefore, we have decided to offer every iPhone customer who purchased an iPhone from either Apple or AT&T, and who is not receiving a rebate or any other consideration, a $100 store credit towards the purchase of any product at an Apple Retail Store or the Apple Online Store. Details are still being worked out and will be posted on Apple's website next week. Stay tuned.
We want to do the right thing for our valued iPhone customers. We apologize for disappointing some of you, and we are doing our best to live up to your high expectations of Apple.
Steve Jobs
Apple CEO

Combining alcohol extractions of salvia (best possible if you grow, using both dried and fresh leaves), linden flower, passionflower, syrian rue, sassafras root bark and perhaps cannabis and papaver somniferum. Let dried salvia leaves soak it up & evaporate it naturally (no added heat). Random amounts--maybe 0.5 oz. salvia extraction source to a like quantity of dried material--can lead to a very strong, good-smelling mixture that can have fast & overwhelming effects, possibly increased by the added MAOI's. St. John's wort and gingko are good additives or stabilizers for the mind if things are too weird. Expect a heavily-fragrant, sticky dark end product somewhat similar is appearance to a tobacco pipe mixture. Be sure to strain/drain off solids before adding extract, and DO NOT EAT.

No Escape (1994, R)
Directed by Martin Campbell
Written by Michael Gaylin and Joel Gross
Based on the novel "The Penal Colony" by Richard Herley
Starring Ray Liotta, Lance Henrickson, Stuart Wilson, Kevin Dillon, Michael Lerner and Ernie Hudson
As Reviewed by James Brundage (MovieKritic2000)
Ah, the wonderful world of mediocrity. That chasm between good and bad in which so many movies exist. You know where I'm talking about. It is that place where a movie is entertaining despite the fact that it is terrible. That place where it has a message but you don't care. The place where it drifts aimlessly between the fine line between a good movie and a B movie.
No Escape falls into that place.
Ironically, No Escape falls into the chasm of mediocrity and seems not to be able to escape from it. Instead, it is rather like a crab in a crab basket: its own competitive nature pulls it back in.
No Escape tries to be both a drama and an action film. In order to do this, it sets itself on a place called Absolom, an island prison some thirty years in the future where two groups constantly compete against each other for control of their jail. Looking at the highly beautiful island, I can't fathom why anyone would pick this place as a prison… but they did.
The story follows Robbins, ex Marine Force Recon who ends up in prison after shooting a CO. Being Ray Liotta, everyone is expected to root for him. I merely sit the film out. Having a high aversion to authority, he pisses the warden at the regular prison off and is sent to Absolom, the island where no one wants to go.
Let's perform a reality check here. With an island that beautiful, thirty years from now it's going to be Club Med.
But, back to the review, Robbins is sent into Absolom where he quickly encounters Merek, the villain of the story who is a psychopathic fascist leader of The Outsiders. Of course, having that same damn aversion to authority, Robbins kills several people while escaping from Merek and, after falling a thousand feet and landing in the water (on his back), he miraculously survives and is taken in by a group of kinder, gentler people known as The Insiders. The Insiders run a socialist system, good of the whole, etc. Their leader is called The Father, and is played by Lance Henrikson, who's old enough that they should have called him The Grandfather.
Everyone dreams of freedom but excepts their new life. Tensions boil between the insiders and the outsiders. War erupts. Ray Liotta saves the day.
Yada, yada, yada.
Lifted off of the pages of a sci-fi book, No Escape is your classic W.W.I.I. metaphor: Fascism versus Socialist and Democratic systems. There are spies, betrayals, and, of course, the Americans win in the end. As I said, it contains a message but no one, including me, cares.
The movie goes slowly for an action movie because it gets caught up in the pseudo drama of the moment. It tries to form characters, tries to form plot twists, and fails.
However, the small bits of character that it contains are enough to maintain your attention for roughly two hour running time… that is, along with the action sequences.
Yeah, No Escape is one of those movies you can just sit back and not really enjoy. It is a solution to boredom, a show of mediocrity. It is in the chasm, that void of movies that we will all watch if they're on.
It is in the chasm, my friends. Down at the bottom, leaning towards the bad but still edible.
