Linke is a dead end.

I'm not too surprised... It's 3 years old, and it seems like a lot of news places have links that expire after a while now.

The AMC at Dunvale near Westheimer in Houston, has the sign stenciled on the doors near the bottom of the door in big letters. I have never compared the writing to see if it is the updated wording, but it looks legit enough. There are fifty front doors, but since it is printed on one of them that seems OK too.

They have either removed the picture you're referring to or you got your links mixed up.

In other news James Holmes was within 30 days of being evicted, since his apartment was students only, and he had quit.

The theater chain (Cinemark) normally has armed security (off duty police) on Friday and Saturday nights at this theater. Since this was a late Thursday night/ early Friday morning showing the police were not there. Certainly if police are normally needed on Friday and Saturday night, they would be needed for this special showing. In fact at a number of Cinemark theaters doing the same Batman midnight showing off duty police were present to handle problems with the large crowds that were expected. But for some reason not at this particular theater.

I know that my local AMC theater normally has 4 to 5 policeman in uniform, when I am there. Going to the movie theater is not the polite genteel thing it once was. Course I remember in the early '60's some movie was playing and it seemed to cause teens to vandalize the stores and businesses nearby after they saw it. Rebel without a Cause or something like that.

You know if your going to ban concealed weapons from your business, the least you can do is provide police on site for protection.

Installing metal detectors (which wouldn't have helped in Aurora) that has been mentioned is going to make me really stay away from movie theaters. And I am one of their best customers.

AMC bans guns with a real legal sign, so I haven't been to the theater since the shooting.

Where did you see that there were no police at the theater? I have only heard and seen that there were officers on site because of the Batman opening.

AMC thinks they ban guns here in Texas. The only signs I've seen are 30.06 signs printed on 8.5x11 sheets of paper down in the lower corners of one or two of their windows away from the doors. Has anyone seen a proper 30.06 sign at an AMC theater?

Temporal Illusion - The Butterfly Effect

During science camp at a community college in San Diego six years ago, Holmes focused on temporal illusion, a distortion in perception that he described as “an illusion that allows you to change the past,” according to a video of a presentation released yesterday by ABC News.

The Butterfly Effect (movie Sci-Fi 2004)
He finds he has the ability to travel back in time to inhabit his former self and change the present.

Last year, Holmes was one of a half-dozen students admitted to the neuroscience graduate program on the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, which focuses on the workings of the brain with an emphasis “on processing of information, behavior, learning and memory,” according to a statement from the school.
‘Significant Contributions’

Holmes, along with five other students, had his research funded by a National Institutes of Health grant aimed at training “outstanding neuroscientists and academicians who will make significant contributions to neurobiology,” the school said.

Holmes was paid a stipend of $26,000 a year under the grant

That's science you pay for with taxes, so lets see if his experiment works; if he can change the past after execution ...


Him and Laughner's sleepwalking awake dreaming, whatever...
