THE BIG ONE (1997) Reviewed by Jerry Saravia Originally viewed back in winter of 1998
THE BIG ONE (1997) - A pleasurable comedy, masquerading as a documentary, focusing on Michael Moore's attempts to focus on the truth surrounding the layoffs in Michigan and around the United States. We see unemployed people barking at Michael Moore and at the cameras about their poverty, Borders Bookstore employees complaining about tax cuts on their paychecks, a woman crying to Moore at one of his booksignings about her inability to find work, and the penultimate moment when Moore confronts the Nike chairman and asks him why people in Mexico are working for 80 cents an hour.
"The Big One" has lots of scattered moments of truth, and plenty of it is just hearsay - the scene where the workers yell to Moore is obviously staged. I enjoyed the scenes where Moore and his video crew enter places of business and are threatened to leave, or when he gives some associates and bigwigs a big, fat check for 80 cents to the Mexican workers because "we want to help them out." All of this will be very familiar to anyone who's seen "Roger and Me" or his TV series "TV Nation."
Moore has a lot of good arguments about what's happening to hard workers around the country who work for candy companies or GM - if these corporations are making so much money, why are there so many layoffs? One word: competition, so they can be ahead of the others. That is why they pay so little to Mexican vagrants or children in Mexico and other countries - it is cheap labor for maximum profit. And then there are the airline workers who !
"The Big One" is very funny throughout and is more tightly edited than "Roger and Me." Moore could have a career as a comake flight reservations - nothing unusual about that except some of them are prisoners in jailmedian, but he is after bigger game - to expose the truth through nuggets of humor. Some may say he is just exploiting the workers he's documenting. I would say he's exploiting the exploiters.

With her soft brown hair, lithe figure and big, wondering eyes, Constance Chatterley is possessed of a certain vitality. Yet she is deeply unhappy, married to a physical and emotional cripple, and embarks on an affair with Mellors, the gamekeeper.
Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically. The cataclysm has happened, we are among the ruins, we start to build up new little habitats, to have new little hopes. It is rather hard work: there is now no smooth road into the future: but we go around, or scramble over the obstacles. We've got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen.

Visualizing Climate Change and The Kyoto Protocol
The Kyoto Protocol is an international agreement linked to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. The major feature of the Kyoto Protocol is that it sets binding targets for 37 industrialized countries and the European community for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions .These amount to an average of five per cent against 1990 levels over the five-year period 2008-2012.
The major distinction between the Protocol and the Convention is that while the Convention encouraged industrialised countries to stabilize GHG emissions, the Protocol commits them to do so. Recognizing that developed countries are principally responsible for the current high levels of GHG emissions in the atmosphere as a result of more than 150 years of industrial activity, the Protocol places a heavier burden on developed nations under the principle of “common but differentiated responsibilities.”.
The Protocol was adopted on 11 December 1997 in Kyoto, Japan, and entered into force on 16 February 2005. As of September 2011, 191 states have signed and ratified the protocol.[9] The United States signed but did not ratify the Protocol and Canada withdrew from it in 2011.[2] Other United Nations member states which did not ratify the protocol are Afghanistan, Andorra and South Sudan.

| Home | Class XRef | The NA Class |
The class Boolean provides the protocol for logical values. Logical value are represented by the two subclasses of Boolean - TRUE and FALSE. Most of the protocol for booleans is actually implemented at these subclasses.
The Boolean class is a direct subclass of Object:
Object
|
Boolean
|
|-- FALSE
|
|-- TRUE
The messages TRUE and FALSE are defined at the class Object to return the objects representing the two Boolean values. You can assign these values to variables and properties using the standard procedures. For example:
!trueValue <- TRUE ; Currency defineFixedProperty: 'status' ; Named Currency USD :status <- FALSE ;
Many messages return one of these values. The relational messages =, ==, !=, !==, <, <=, >, >= return a TRUE or FALSE value when used to compare two objects of the same class. For example:
3 < 4returns the object TRUE and:
"3" > "4"returns the object FALSE.
Whenever a new class is created, the message isXXX (where XXX is the class name) is defined as a class constant for the new class and for Object. The value of the constant for the new class is TRUE and the value for the Object class is FALSE. These messages are automatically defined when you create new classes using the createSubclass: message. For example, when you create a new class TestClass using:
Object createSubclass: "TestClass" ;the message isTestClass is automatically defined using:
TestClass define: 'isTestClass' toBe: TRUE ; Object define: 'isTestClass' toBe: FALSE ;The expression:
TestClass isTestClassreturns TRUE since this object is an instance of TestClass. The expression:
3 isTestClassreturns FALSE since the integer object will use the implementation of isTestClass defined at Object.
Many other messages have been defined to return a Boolean value including:
| Message | Class | Definition | Sample |
| isBlank | String | Is recipient blank? | " abc" isBlank |
| contains: | String | Does recipient contain parameter as a substring? | "whatAmI" contains: "^what" . |
| all: | Collection | Do all members of recipient respond to parameter with TRUE ? | 5 sequence all: [ isNumber ] . |
| any: | Collection | Do any members of recipient respond to parameter with TRUE? | 5 sequence any: [ ^self < 3 ] . |
| between:and: | Number | Is recipient value between two parameter values? | 5 between: 3 and: 7 . |
| within:percentOf: | Number | Is recipient value within parameter1 percent of parameter2? | 100 within: 10 percentOf: 105 . |
| isDefault | Object | Is recipient the default instance for its class? | Named Currency Default isDefault |
The binary message && is defined for the Boolean classes to perform a logical "and" between the recipient Boolean and the parameter. The binary message || is defined for the Boolean classes to perform a logical "or" between the recipient Boolean and the parameter. The parameter can be supplied as a Boolean value or as a block that evaluates to a Boolean value.
The following rules apply:
| Expression | Returns | Sample |
| TRUE && TRUE | TRUE | 3 < 4 && 4 < 5 |
| TRUE && FALSE | FALSE | 3 < 4 && 4 > 5 |
| FALSE && TRUE | FALSE | 3 > 4 && 4 < 5 |
| FALSE && FALSE | FALSE | 3 > 4 && 4 > 5 |
| TRUE || TRUE | TRUE | 3 < 4 || 4 < 5 |
| TRUE || FALSE | TRUE | 3 < 4 || 4 > 5 |
| FALSE || TRUE | TRUE | 3 > 4 || 4 < 5 |
| FALSE || FALSE | FALSE | 3 > 4 || 4 > 5 |
If you supply the parameter to these messages as a block, it is only evaluated if needed. Since && returns FALSE if the recipient object is FALSE independent of the parameter, the block only needs to be evaluated if the recipient is TRUE. Likewise, the || message returns TRUE if the recipient object is TRUE independent of the parameter. If you do not supply the parameter as a block, it is evaluated prior to being passed to the message. For example:
!object <- 3 ; object isString && object count < 5generates the Selector 'count' Not Found error since the message count is being sent to a numeric object. If you supply this parameter as a block:
!object <- 3 ; object isString && [ object count < 5 ]the value FALSE is returned (since object is not a string) and no error message is generated.
The message not is defined for the Boolean classes to return TRUE when sent to FALSE and to return FALSE when sent to TRUE. For example:
( 3 < 4 ) notreturns FALSE.
Several messages that perform conditional tests can be sent to the Boolean values:
The first three of these messages can only be sent to the Boolean objects. The last three can be sent to any object and evaluate their "true clause" when sent to TRUE and their "false clause" when sent to FALSE.
The ifTrue: message evaluates its block parameter if the recipient is TRUE and returns the result of evaluating the block. If the recipient is FALSE, the NA value is returned. The ifFalse: message evaluates its block parameter if the recipient is FALSE and returns the result of evaluating the block. If the recipient is TRUE, the NA value is returned. The ifTrue:ifFalse: message evaluates its first block parameter if the recipient is TRUE and evaluates its second block parameter if the recipient is FALSE. The result of the block evaluation is returned. For example:
!result <- 3 > 2 ifTrue: [ " this is true" print ; 100 ] ;Since the expression 3 > 2 evaluates to TRUE, the block is evaluated. The string "this is true" is displayed and the variable result is set to 100, the value returned by the block. In the expression:
!result <- 3 > 4 ifTrue: [ " this is true" print ; 100 ] ;the block is not evaluated, since the expression 3 > 4 evaluates to FALSE. In this case the variable result is set to NA, the value returned by the ifTrue: message when the block is not evaluated.
The message ifTrue:ifFalse: allows you to supply different blocks for the two cases. For example:
!result <- Currency instanceList count > 100 ifTrue: [ "Many Currencies" printNL; 100 ] ifFalse: [ "Few Currencies" printNL ; 1 ] ;If the expression Currency instanceList count > 100 evaluates to TRUE, the first block is evaluated. The string "Many Currencies" is displayed and the variable result is set to 100, the value returned by the block. If the expression Currency instanceList count > 100 evaluates to FALSE, the second block is evaluated. The string "Few Currencies" is displayed and the variable result is set to 1, the value returned by the block.
Since the blocks supplied as parameters are Vision programs, they can be used to create nested control structures. For example:
!myList <- 200 sequence ; !result <- myList count > 100 ifTrue: [ myList count > 1000 ifTrue: [ "This is a very big list." ] ifFalse: [ "This is a big list." ] ] ifFalse: [ "This is a small list." ] ; result print ;This program will return one of the 3 strings, depending on the number of elements in the list myList and store the string in the variable result. This program can be streamlined using the elseIf:then: and else: messages:
!myList <- Currency masterList ; !result <- myList count > 1000 ifTrue: [ "This is a very big list." ] . elseIf: [ myList count > 100 ] then: [ "This is a big list." ] . else: [ "This is a small list." ] ; result print ;
A common source of Selector Not Found errors are the result of sending the ifTrue:, ifFalse:, or ifTrue:ifFalse messages to non-boolean values. For example:
!object <- NA ; object > 0 ifTrue: [ "Good " ] ifFalse: [ "Bad " ]Since the expression object > 0 returns NA and the ifTrue:ifFalse: message is not defined for this class, the warning message Selector 'ifTrue:ifFalse:' Not Found will be displayed. To avoid this message, an extra conditional test could be performed:
!object <- NA ; object isNumber ifTrue: [ object > 0 ifTrue: [ "Good " ] ifFalse: [ "Bad " ] . print ; ] ;In this case, the ifTrue: block is only evaluated if the variable object is a number. If it is, then the string "Good" is printed, otherwise the string "Bad" is printed. No Selector Not Found messages are generated in this form. Several alternatives exist for writing this program without generating the warning messages. For example:
!object <- NA ; object > 0 ifTrue: [ "Good" ] ifFalse: [ "Bad" ] else: [ ] . print ;In this form, the string "Good" is printed if object > 0 evaluates to TRUE, the string "Bad" is printed if it evaluates to FALSE, and nothing is printed if it evaluates to anything else including NA as it does in this case.

Spam Filtering Preferences Help
If you have a large volume of email, sometimes, the system that classifies your junk
e-mail will become confused, and need to be jostled. Your Divmod team is hard at work
improving our spam-removal technology, but until we have managed to perfect it, here
are some knobs that you can tweak if it isn't behaving quite like you want it to.
Retrain - If you've trained on too many messages, sometimes the spam filter
will become 'overtrained' and start thinking that all of your messages look the same.
Click this button if you have noticed that large numbers of similar junk messages are
continuing to get delivered to your inbox, despite the fact that you've marked a number
of them as spam.
Reclassify - If the spam filter gets a large number of guesses wrong, sometimes
you want to tell it to "try again". If you find yourself clicking the 'this is spam' or
'this is not spam' buttons a lot, this button might come in handy.
Sometimes, the spam filter won't recognize a particular type of message as spam until you
have told it "this is spam" about a similar message before. Some spammers send dozens of
similar, or even identical messages, to the same address.
The opposite can happen too. Spams commonly contain female names: let's say that you receive
a pile of spam from a spammer claiming to be "Angela". You classify it as spam. In some
circumstances, this may cause the spam filter to decide that whenever you receive a message
mentioning "Angela", it's junk. If you were to later join, let's say, the Murder, She Wrote
mailing list, you might receive dozens of legitimate messages regarding "Angela Landsbury
- which would then get incorrectly recognized as spam by the spam filter. In that case, go
to your spam folder, mark a few of the messages from the mailing list as "not spam", and
then click "reclassify"; you won't have to go back and mark them all as "not spam".
