Intrada has announced four new CDs to be released next week. Along with the previously announced release of Brian Tyler's score for the blockbuster superhero sequel THOR: THE DARK WORLD, there are three holiday-themed scores, all by top composers.
Before directing last year's Oscar-nominated Flight, Robert Zemeckis helmed three back-to-back films using motion capture-based animation -- The Polar Express, Beowulf, and DISNEY'S A CHRISTMAS CAROL, which featured Jim Carrey as Scrooge as well as all the Ghosts, and Gary Oldman as Bob Cratchit, Marley and Tiny Tim (seriously). As with every Zemeckis film for nearly three decades, the score was composed by two-time Oscar nominee Alan Silvestri, and his warm orchestral score, incoporating traditional themes as well as an original song, "God Bless Us Everyone," had previously received its only commercial release as a download (bah humbug!).
Director John Hancock has had an unusually varied career - along with being the director of the original, darker version of Jaws 2 (but fired a few weeks into filming and replaced by TV veteran Jeannot Szwarc), he directed the low-budget horror Let's Scare Jessica to Death, the Oscar-nominated baseball drama Bang the Drum Slowly, and the moving Nick Nolte vehicle Weeds. However, to a generation of children who grew up in the 1980s and '90s, his classic film is probably PRANCER, the 1989 fantasy about a little girl who meets one of Santa's reindeer. The cast included Sam Elliott and Cloris Leachman, and the score was composed by three-time Oscar winner Maurice Jarre. Though selections had previously been included on compilations, this is the first release of the full Prancer score.
Eight-time Emmy winner Bruce Broughton wrote the score to the 1986 Disney TV movie THE THANKSGIVING PROMISE, starring Beau Bridges, Millie Perkins and Courtney Thorne-Smith. Broughton wrote his score around the time he was doing some of his best feature work, like Silverado and Young Sherlock Holmes, and Intrada's CD is its first release.
The latest CD announced by Kritzerland pairs two previously unreleased scores for Jerry Lewis vehicles -- the science-fiction comedy VISIT TO A SMAL PLANET, based on the TV and stage play by Gore Vidal, with music by two-time Oscar winner Leigh Harline, and THE DELICATE DELINQUENT, the 1957 comedy pairing Lewis with Darren McGavin, with music by composer-arranger Buddy Bregman.
Varese Sarabande has announced upcoming CD soundtracks from two new thrillers, both due on December 10.
Chan-Wook Park's stylish thriller Oldboy has become a cult classic since its release in 2003, and an American remake has long been in the works, at one point to team star Will Smith and director Steven Spielberg (!). The U.S. OLDBOY finally opens this Thanksgiving weekend, with Spike Lee directing Josh Brolin as the man who is inexplicably imprisoned for over a decade only to be just as mysteriously set free, with Elisabeth Olsen and Sharlto Copley as the characters who may hold the key to the mystery. The film's score has had nearly as torturous a develoment as the remake itself -- the first composer announced for the project was singer-keyboardist Bruce Hornsby, who had scored Lee's Red Hook Summer. Hornsby was replaced by master minimalist Michael Nyman, making a rare return to film scoring, but even though Nyman's name appeared on many of the film's posters, the final score has been written by the Spanish composer Roque Banos (Sexy Beast, The Machinist, Intruders, Evil Dead).
Paul Walker stars in HOURS, a minimalist thriller about a man trying to keep his infant daughter alive at an abandoned hospital in the midst of Hurricane Katrina. The film's score was composed by Benjamin Wallfisch, whose other scores include Dear Wendy, The Escapist, Summer in February and Hammer of the Gods; he has also worked as an orchestrator and/or conductor for such scores as The Brothers Grimm, Robin Hood, Tower Heist and Anna Karenina.
Since Intrada's release of Max Steiner's score for the Disney production THOSE CALLOWAYS is out of print, Screen Archives and BYU are presenting a new limited release of the score with all proceeds going to film music restoration, featuring the complete Steiner score as well as a couple of previously unreleased song cues.
Buysoundtrax is releasing THE ANGEL TRILOGY, a CD with music from all three of the high school prostitute drama: Angel (scored by Craig Safan), Avenging Angel (Christopher Young) and Angel III: The FInal Chapter (Berlin Game, aka Eric Allaman). The label is also releasing MUSIC FROM THE X-FILES: 20TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION, featuring re-recordings of Mark Snow's music from the TV series and two feature films.
I was lucky enough to see an advance screening of the World War II-set drama THE BOOK THIEF, and while it was a well-crafted and well-acted story, the best thing about it, unsurprisingly to our readers, was the score by John Williams, his first work for a film that did not involve Steven Spielberg, George Lucas or Harry Potter since 2000's The Patriot. The score is truly lovely, and it's a marvel that at the age of 81, Williams' dramatic and compositional gifts are as strong as ever.

BASTARDS [LES SALAUDS] - TIndersticks
"None of these plot developments hit the audience head-on, which works entirely in Bastards' favor, since its conclusion is so close to that of another dark thriller from a contemporary French master that revealing its title would give the game away. But Denis' atmospherics, as usual, carry the day: Noir is a game of hard shadows and hard cases, but Denis ('Beau Travail,' 'Friday Night') and her team of regular collaborators -- cinematographer Agnès Godard, many of the actors, and Tindersticks, who contribute an essential mood-building score -- approach it with a seductive delicacy that's both fitting for the genre and distinct from it. Just as 'Trouble Every Day' exists on the fringes of French extreme horror, 'Bastards' is a neo-noir that doesn't behave entirely as expected."
Scott Tobias, The Dissolve
"Working as usual with a fantastically sensual, almost electronic score by Tindersticks, Denis has crafted a noir that's filled with the sorts of characters that usually pop up in such a film: There are no real heroes, just different shades of culpable."
Tim Grierson, Paste Magazine
"'The Bastards' is a strange and certainly not wholly successful hybrid -- there are tones and textures that remind us of everything from Refn (perhaps it's the blue lighting and the initially spartan synth score that later thrums into an insistent Tindersticks track that plays over the whole end portion), to Jean Luc-Godard, while the couple who run the "sex den" feel like characters straight out of a David Lynch movie, and some of the thriller-ish, generic elements feel ever so slightly, well, Adrian Lyne at times. And very few of the above are names we ever expected to reference in a Claire Denis review."
Jessica Kiang, The Playlist
"Marco's actual motivations, and the twisted truth underlying his relatives' relationship to Laporte, remain indistinct for long stretches of Bastards, as longtime collaborator Agnes Godard's sumptuous nocturnal cinematography -- full of gorgeous shadows and constricting spaces -- and Stuart A. Staples' ominous electronica score suggest terror and chaos just up ahead. When the revelations do come, they cast the film as a nightmarish reverie about the ugly violence of love and sex, and the impotent futility of revenge sought out of abandonment guilt."
Nick Schager, Village Voice
"Most of Denis's usual creative team is in place: cinematographer Agnes Godard, co-writer Jean-Pol Fargeau and Stuart Staples, who composed a particularly ominous and sparse Tindersticks score. The new element is the digital camera (the RED Epic) from which Denis and Godard manage to wrest the tactility that is their trademark. Close-ups of faces (incredible faces in this movie) and of bodies nearly submerged in darkness, and not a tortured pixel or any other kind of digital noise in sight."
Amy Taubin, Sight and Sound
"The mood of foreboding is established right away, as 80s electronica squalls on the soundtrack and Lola Creton picks her way, naked, through the dark streets of Paris."
Xan Brooks, The Guardian
"At turns perversely frustrating and completely engaging, 'Bastards'' composed aesthetic, intense performances and electronic score from Tindersticks is surprisingly seductive, given its subject matter, although its payoff, deliberately with-held to the last frames, is gratuitously over-stated."
Fionnula Halligan, Screen International
"Like Denis' sublimely impenetrable 'The Intruder' (2004), the point is to get hopelessly lost in the film's eerie, unsettling flow. (Frequent Denis collaborators Tindersticks assist by contributing another of their hypnotic, mood-enhancing scores.)"
Keith Ulrich, Time Out New York
"In a montage set, like much of the film, to the moody, Tangerine Dream-esque electronica score of longtime Denis collaborators Tindersticks, 'Bastards' cuts among the crime scene; a police interview with Jacques' widow Sandra (Julie Bataille); and a nude woman -- later revealed to be Jacques and Sandra's teenage daughter, Justine (Lola Creton) -- wandering dazed and bloody through the Paris streets. The action plays out in a fashion that is less elliptical than such recent Denis efforts as 'The Intruder' and 'White Material,' but no less fragmentary and associative in its design. Adopting a terse narrative style that seems to mirror the brutality of the film's subject, 'Bastards' strips every scene down to its essential details, never giving the viewer more information than Marco has at any given point in the story, only finally fitting all of its puzzle pieces together in a shocking final scene. But even at its most opaque, 'Bastards' always exerts a dreamlike pull rooted in Denis' rhythmic layerings of image, sound and music."
Scott Foundas, Variety
"Every bit as cold and brutal as its blunt title suggests, 'Bastards (Les Salauds)' is easier to admire than to love. Claire Denis is at the height of her powers in terms of unfaltering control, superb manipulation of mood and masterful use of music by her frequent collaborators Stuart A. Staples and British indie outfit Tindersticks. But while partisans of the director's elliptical style will find plenty to reinforce their predisposition, others will be distanced by this grim revenge drama, which is both unrelentingly dour and unnecessarily hard to follow."
David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter
CAPITAL - Armand Amar
"'Capital' is a parable about France selling out to keep up with America's 'cowboy capitalism,' but the film's portrayal of soulless suits is so obvious and silly -- typical dialogue: 'CEOs write checks, fire people, and eat well; watch your waistline' -- that it's hard to muster more than a yawn and a giggle (the latter when a malevolent femme fatale licks globs of caviar from her knee). Little feels fresh, from the generically pulsing score to the chilly grays of Eric Gautier's cinematography to the long-suffering wife character."
Jon Frosch, IndieWIRE
"Indeed, although the narrative consists largely of impeccably dressed business types doing nothing more (or less) dramatic than talking to each other in well-appointed offices, Costa-Gavras develops such a propulsively suspenseful pace -- with no small assist from Armand Amar's mood-enhancing Euro-tech score -- that his drama comes across as the cinematic equivalent of an engrossing page-turner you might purchase off the rack at an airport newsstand."
Joe Leydon, Variety
"D.P. Eric Gautier's stately, well-heeled lighting is edited to the breathless beat of non-stop corporate life and tensely scored by Armand Amar, linking the film to other memorable Costa-Gavras thrillers like 'Z,' 'State of Siege' and 'Missing.'"
Deborah Young, Hollywood Reporter
DIANA - David Holmes, Keefus Ciancia
"Tech credits are pro, and David Holmes and Keefus Ciancia's score earns points for its surprising restraint."
Charles Gant, Variety
"Within these limitations, however, Diana is a perfectly palatable slab of superior bio-soap. It looks and feels luxurious, with handsome location shooting in Mozambique, Croatia and Pakistan from Hirschbiegel's regular cinematographer Rainer Klausmann, and an unusually muted orchestral score co-written by Steven Soderbergh regular David Holmes.'
Stephen Dalton, Hollywood Reporter
ENDER'S GAME - Steve Jablonsky
"It feels a bit underpopulated, and Ender's intricate cyber-battles aren't as involving as they are on the page. But this is one of those movies in which you can't always tell what's inept and what's purposefully flat. I'm inclined to cut Hood slack. In spite of the nonstop thunderous orchestral score, 'Ender's Game' forgoes the usual rah-rah-kill-the-Alien-Other tone that powers so many of our mainstream action pictures. Whether younger audiences primed to cheer will submit to this is an open question. I hope so. The end delivers a kick that should knock the wind out of anyone.
David Edelstein, Vulture
"The scant immediate action comes from training sequences in a zero-gravity hub, and Hood utilizes Steve Jablonsky's bloated score to add ample false urgency to the exercises."
Chris Cabin, Slant Magazine
""'Ender's Game' marks Hood's second collaboration with DP Don McAlpee [sic] after 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine,' and while the two films' budgets are nearly the same, it's shocking to see how far the duo have improved from their prior muddy mess. The story confines the action largely to within the glossy battle school halls, classrooms, and bunkrooms (production designed by Sean Haworth and Ben Procter of 'Tron: Legacy'). In doing so, Hood captures snatches of glittering deep space outside windows, and lets the ship's primary color-hued interior reinforce a sense of claustrophobia overall as Steve Jablonsky's serviceable electronic score rings out."
Charlie Schmidlin, The Playlist
"Though it's largely a virtue, writer-director Gavin Hood's brisk pacing proves to be something of a liability during the movie's climactic twist. Hood handles the scene without patronizing; the characters never bluntly state what happened, inviting the audience to realize its implications alongside Ender. However, because Hood proceeds to the next bit of plot as quickly as possible (accompanied, as always, by the arpeggiated chords, walls of synth-brass, and big loud drums of the score), he robs the scene of any emotional potency."
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky, The Onion
"Even so, the sleek production design (by 'Tron: Legacy's' Sean Haworth and Ben Procter) and costumes (created by another 'Tron: Legacy' alum, Christine Bieselin Clark) suggest a sleek, stylish future. Steven Jablonsky's mostly-digital score, which sounds like Daft Punk plus strings, cements the film's debt to that recent Disney reboot, and yet, 'Ender's Game' pushes the vidgame dynamic even further, as the characters progress, level by level, game by game, toward their epic showdown with the Formics."
Peter Debruge, Variety
LAST LOVE [formerly MR. MORGAN'S LAST LOVE] - Hans Zimmer
"The two unlikely friends begin to hit it off and serve as plainly ideal father-daughter surrogates for each other, enjoying rowboats and hot dogs together. 'I could use a little chaos in my life,' Matthew says upon dripping some ketchup on his tie, and for a good while, 'Last Love' seems to be That Kind Of Movie, complete with the warm-cool color palette of Michael Bertl's cinematography and an uncharacteristically flighty score from tentpole fixture Hans Zimmer."
William Goss, The Dissolve
"This is a glacially paced movie, filled with sickly picture postcard imagery that seems designed to put you to sleep. The 'sprightly' score is so basically retiring and uninvolved that it even seems to whisper, 'Go to sleep…just go to sleep.'"
Dan Callahan, RogerEbert.com
"Though the basic elements would appear to be here for a geriatric crowdpleaser in the 'Quartet'/'Best Exotic Marigold Hotel' vein, the pic's funereal pacing and relentlessly downbeat tone hew closer to a watered-down TV-movie version of 'Amour,' with a treacly Hans Zimmer score subbed for Schubert."
"The main problem of 'Mr. Morgan's Last Love' is a structural one, as it is really two films in one. In the first story, which roughly takes up the first half, Mr. Morgan wallows in his grief until he literally bumps into Pauline on a bus and the two strike up an unexpected friendship. The screenplay, written by the director, is very observant here and neatly (if occasionally barely) devoid of clichés, something even echoed in the score of the first half-hour, a gentle theme from composer Hans Zimmer with a spark of youth and hope to it. Shot on location in Paris and St. Malo, Brittany, with interiors done in Belgium and Germany (the main co-producing countries), the film looks fine on what must have been a modest budget. Costume designer Maira Ramedhan Levi dresses Pauline in a series of see-through blouses that give the kind-hearted girl a strange Lolita-ish vibe, while Zimmer's score becomes more predictable as the action develops.
Boyd Van Hoeij, Hollywood Reporter
LET THE FIRE BURN - Christopher Mangum
"Structured around the filmed public hearings that took place five months later, 'Let The Fire Burn' also incorporates MOVE-approved propaganda films, live local-news coverage of the May altercation, and recorded depositions. Goosed along by Chris Mangum's supple, understated score, Osder and Bangerter seamlessly intertwine their diverse footage with the skill of dramatists, grippingly and mournfully building toward the fateful 1985 confrontation as different speakers testify to the mind-set of both Philadelphia law enforcement and MOVE."
Tim Grierson, Screen International
"The ingeniously interwoven archival material compensates for whatever context may be lacking in Osder's found-footage approach. Christopher Mangum's wonderfully subtle score adds a critical dimension to the flow of unmediated imagery."

Road Rage
Good driving requires a responsible attitude and high levels of both concentration and anticipation. In reality, however, everyone makes mistakes. Driving while emotional, stressed or feeling harassed by another driver can lead to poor decision making and pose a real accident hazard.
Here are some tips on how to deal with both your own potential road rage and that of others.
Before You Set Off
Try to ensure you are feeling calm and well rested before you leave. Being emotionally upset and tired can be distracting may cause you to drive less safely or to respond inappropriately to an incident.
Plan your journey, allowing extra time for unexpected delays. Giving yourself extra time to get to your destination will help ensure you don't get stressed due to running late or getting lost.
During Your Journey
Don't panic or over-react to another driver's bad driving. Remember everyone makes mistakes. Even if their actions are intentional, just give them some space and concentrate on your own driving.
Be aware of signs that your mood has taken a turn for the worse, such as voice tone, muscle tension and elevated heart rate. Mentally check yourself to prevent it escalating. Try deep breathing, counting out loud or putting on some calming music. Stretching your arms, hands and fingers can help relieve stress too.
Don't get into conflict if it seems another driver is provoking you. Stay calm and don't engage.
If an incident makes you feel stressed, find a safe place to stop and calm down before continuing your journey.
If you make a mistake, acknowledge this fact to other road users. This will help diffuse tension.
Be aware of your own driving. Don't lane-hog or hold up the flow of traffic. If you have a long tail of traffic behind you, consider pulling in to let faster traffic pass you.
If you are being tailgated, don't feel pressured to speed up. Find a safe opportunity to allow the driver to pass, such as driving right round a roundabout to end up behind the tailgating driver.
If you are being persistently followed, make your way to a public place such as a petrol station, police station or busy street. Don't allow them to follow you home. Remain in the car with the windows closed and door locked. If necessary, call the police.
Remember: focus on your own driving and mood, and be patient with other drivers. Someone else's bad driving needn't ruin your day, and losing your temper can have serious consequences. In 2012 2448 accidents were recorded as caused by "aggressive driving." The police can now issue fines and penalty points for tailgating and a number of other reckless or aggressive driving offences.

Fast-food restaurants' healthier offerings don't do much for Americans' bottoms or the chains' bottom lines. After all, experts say, customers generally don't show up for the supersized salads. Burger King hoped to change that with its new "Satisfries," but announced on Wednesday that its menu will be a little lighter from now on: Satisfries are getting the chop.
Introduced last September, Burger King's Satisfries were an attempt to appeal to people who were worried about calories, and Burger King claimed they had 30% fewer calories and 40% less fat than McDonald's MCD, -0.11% french fries. But history shows such efforts—even when relatively successful—do more to improve the brand's image than its revenues, analysts say. And sometimes, healthy menu items are left on the shelf.
When Burger King US:BKW returned to the public market in June 2012—introduced one of the biggest menu revamps since the company began in 1954. Its "fresh offers" include strawberry and banana smoothies, Caesar salads and crispy chicken strips.
As for smoothies, though the blended yogurt drinks tend to have higher margins, they are unlikely to ever beat sales of fries, says R.J. Hottovy, an analyst with Morningstar. "Guilty pleasures still carry more weight for consumers," he says. "But the industry is in a secular decline so it's looking for new ways to drive traffic."
Indeed, studies show even the prominent display of nutritional information has had mixed results in changing customer behavior. One 2008 study in the "American Journal of Public Health" said Subway patrons who saw calorie information purchased 52 fewer calories than other patrons. However, another 2011 survey in the "British Medical Journal" said only one-in-six New Yorkers counted calories before making a purchase. One explanation: even the healthy options are not always so healthy, according to Steffie Woolhandler, professor of public health at the City University of New York. "Frozen yogurt products have as many calories as ice-cream," she says. Burger King's menu, for instance, includes a mocha frappé with caramel sauce (600 calories for a 20-ounce cup).
That said, adding salads and other healthy choices does help fast-food chains appeal to families—if only to get them in the door, experts say. A McDonald's spokeswoman says the restaurant aims to provide options for all tastes, "whether you want oatmeal or a Big Mac." But Hottovy says it's tough to change the consumer's perception of a fast-food restaurant even with a wider selection on the menu. That's why KFC's "Double Down"—two pieces of bacon and cheese smothered by two giant hunks of breaded chicken—was a hit online and in the restaurants, Hottovy says.
The chains' attempts at healthy fare often don't do as well. Here are four of the biggest nutritious fast-food flops:

Few positions on the ballot get less voter attention than those for School Committee.
This has always been a mystery to us, for the committee plays a powerful role and, all things considered, members have a greater impact on the community and taxes than the council does. Consider this – the committee has five members (versus nine on the council), they serve four, not two, years and they control more than 60 percent of the city budget. More importantly, they set the course for our schools and, in the process, form the mold for our future. Good schools are a community asset. It is a reason why people want to live here, which has a direct correlation to property values. Apart from what good schools can mean to individual enrichment and achievement, which is critical, they also serve to attract businesses and, in that process, create jobs.
Somehow, the electorate either doesn't see or appreciate this. Few people know their School Committee members.
For years, until the Board of Canvassers went to a lottery system, committee candidates were listed alphabetically on the ballot, and the odds of being elected were greatly enhanced by being on top of that list. The same holds true today, although candidates are not listed alphabetically unless the lottery turned out that way.
This year, four candidates are vying for two at-large seats.
One is an incumbent, Patrick Maloney, who is looking to be re-elected to his second four-year term. Of the other three, two are running for their first time, Karen Bachus and Jennifer Ahearn. The third, David Testa, ran unsuccessfully for a district seat two years ago and is now in it for a citywide seat.
We also note that three candidates – Maloney, Testa and Ahearn – have students in the system, an important asset, in our book, for someone looked upon to set policy and the course for Warwick schools.
The campaign has been low-key thus far. There have been some letters in support of various candidates, but otherwise no press releases, or for that matter, position papers. Signs, advertising and some door-to-door campaigning have been the extent of most efforts.
We did get to see and hear the candidates in a recent forum hosted by this paper where they were asked questions by a panel of three high school students – one from each of the city's public high schools – and Beacon reporter Kim Kalunian.
We came away from that forum both buoyed and troubled.
Foremost, all four candidates illustrated a knowledge of the issues facing Warwick schools and a zeal to engage in the process of solving problems and setting a course for the future. That's good. What troubled us was Mr. Maloney's response to a question raised by Vets High senior Bianca Coppelli over the status of Superintendent Peter Horoschak, who has been placed on paid administrative leave. Maloney deemed the question "inappropriate" because it is a personnel matter and for legal reasons can't be publicly discussed.
What blather. Certainly taxpayers should know why the committee continues to pay Mr. Horoschak while telling him not to set foot on school property. Moreover, Mr. Maloney's answer is reflective of an attitude that the committee is above question and need not answer to the public, even though he has espoused greater communication and transparency.
Because of this, our choices are Ms. Ahearn and Mr. Testa. Though Ms. Bachus showed the vim and vigor of a natural leader at our School Committee forum, she doesn't have children. Ahearn, Maloney and Testa do have children in Warwick schools and that's an important component. With what they bring to the table, we think Ahearn and Testa will best serve the interests of the entire school community, while not losing sight of the even larger base of citizens they would represent.
I would like to provide some additional information. I believe in transparency and have always worked for better communication. When I found out that there would be no forum at all in Warwick for the School Committee candidates, I called and emailed the Warwick Beacon to request that they hold a forum. I was told that there wasn't enough time to put it together. I responded to John Howell that if no forum would be held that I would host the event myself because I believed it was important that the citizens of Warwick get a chance to meet all the candidates. He responded that he would call me back and would try to host the event. I received a call a short time later that there would be a Warwick Beacon hosted forum. This is only one small example of how important transparency and communication is to me. This event would not have happened if I didn't work to make it happen.
It is unfortunate that a question was asked that I could not answer due to the fact that it is a personnel issue. It should be noted that all of the other candidates agreed with me and would not comment on it because it was a personnel matter. Over the last 4 years, I have always worked for better communication. I pushed for the creation of the Parent Communication Advisory Committee. I volunteered to be the School Committee member to sit on this committee that meets each month. I always listened to the parents and have resolved many issues over the years for parents who have come to the committee to voice issues.
One issue that was voiced was the science program at Cedar Hill. This issue was brought to my attention by Jennifer Ahearn several years ago. I invited the head of Science and Math for the schools to the meeting to listen and explain the program. I visited the school, talked with the principal, visited the classrooms and consulted with the curriculum coordinator and brought the issues to their attention so it could be researched and changes were made to make improvements.
I also report back to administration any issues that arise at the PCAC meetings. I have brought forward bullying issues, transportation issues, Graduation by Proficiency issues, ALAP issues, budget issues and countless other issues. There is more work to do. I would like to assure the citizens of Warwick that I work hard and I do more than "espouse greater communication and transparency", I strive to make education better and have actually created a way for Parents and the community to get more information. I attended the Parent Communication Advisory Committee tonight. This subcommittee meets the First Thursday prior to the Regular School Committee meetings.
Communication is a priority for me.
When I ran for office in 2008, many people told me I was crazy to decide to run when the schools were in bad shape and there had been 2 years of deficits. These deficits totaled about $3.2 Million. Good decision making allowed me to be able to pay back the city the full deficit amount and repair many of the schools that needed work during my 4 years on the committee. I am not afraid of a challenge and wanted to make sure the schools improved for my kids' education.
Since being elected, I helped balance the budget each year. The two biggest projects of the last 4 years were the Pilgrim Roof replacement and the beginning of Fire Code upgrades this year. Each of these projects came in within their budgets. There are still 2 more years of Fire Code upgrades necessary to bring the schools up to New State requirements.
When I arrived on the committee, the Warwick Independent School Employee (WISE) union had been working without a contract for several years. I helped resolve the contract and this lead to union concessions, savings for the schools and most important for the employees, stability. The WISE Union was the first union in Warwick to agree to a co-pay of 20%.
Last year, the teacher contract was reaching an end. I helped the school committee and the teachers to reach a temporary agreement that would save the city money again. The one year agreement consisted of the teachers paying a 20% co-pay for the year and an agreement to review and shape the RI Dept of Education evaluation system. As the year passed and we reached the end of our temporary agreement, I helped settle the teacher contract which allowed us to permanently secure the co-pay and for the first time in years modify the Special Education Weighting in Warwick allowing us to continue to service the Special Education students appropriately while saving money.
These are only a few of the major accomplishments I have helped the committee achieve.
It is unfortunate that despite the hundreds of questions I have answered for the Warwick Beacon and hundreds of hours I have spent helping families in Warwick, the Warwick Beacon is not supporting me because I will not answer one question at this time. It is my hope that citizens of Warwick support me on election day because I have done a great job and will work to improve the schools. Together we can make things better.
Patrick Maloney
Patrick you shouldn't expect the editors to make a decision based on fairness and balance. Most of the information they present as facts, are not true.
The decision of the beacon to endorse candidates is influenced directly from the mayor's office.
In fact some of the articles and columns written are sent to the mayor office for him and his staff to review them and they have requested modifications to the articles if they don't like what is being printed.
So the bottom line Patrick, don't worry about who they endorse most Warwick voters don't read this junk anyway.
Thank you Warwick Taxpayer. You made my day. I wanted to make sure people know I do care and I do work hard. I also do not believe we are beyond question and I never forget that I work for you. Here is something that I have done while on the committee. Each committee member has a name plate assigned to them. On the back of the plate is a sticker that has the name of the person who has the plate. When I was elected in 2008, the sticker on the back of the plate said Joyce Andrade. In 2009, I saw that they were going to remove the sticker and I asked them not to. The reason I asked them not to was because I wanted to be reminded at each meeting that the seat was not mine and could be someone else's if I didn't work hard to get the right answers and make good decisions. The sticker is still on the back of the plate and it still says Joyce Andrade. You are welcome to see it at any meeting. Thanks again for your kind words.
I think in the final analysis Ahern and Maloney are the best qualified. It is true Maloney dances around the issues but I think he has learned that people want more straight forward answers and will provide them in the future.
Testa flip flops all the time.
I think that Karen Bachus is very qualified. She has been working with children and families for over 25 years. I don't believe that not having her own biological children in Warwick Schools means anything. She has a proven commitment and is not looking for personal gain. As John said in his editorial, she is a "natural leader". How true that is. She will work for all of our kids and our taxpayers to make things better for all. Her statement and that of Patrick Maloney hit the issues on the head. They both see funding as the most significant issue but want to see things improve and have plans to do that. Karen will get things done. I believe that Patrick will as well. I don't understand this silly bias. If anyone attended the forum put on by the Beacon, Karen did very well, was clear, not afraid to speak up, and had some good ideas.
Vote for Karen Bachus for Warwick School Committee--you will be glad that you did and everyone will benefit.
Here is a link to a question asked in a 2008 Warwick Beacon Forum and that question is still relevant today.
The question was:
As has been reported, the school department has entered the current budget year facing a projected $4 million deficit. It appears trimming such an amount from operating expenses can't be done without affecting personnel and as a result programs. What programs would you cut, or how else would you balance the budget?
My Answer is here:
Here is another question from a 2008 Warwick Beacon Forum:
The state Board of Regents is examining a change in high school graduation requirements that would equally weight grades earned while in high school with completion of a senior project, known as graduation by proficiency and performance in a one-day state-run test. Do you feel this is a fair measure for evaluating a student's performance?
My Answer is here:
Another question from a 2008 Warwick Beacon Forum:
As you know, more than 60 cents of each Warwick Property tax dollar goes to the School Department, yet neither the Mayor nor the city council that set the overall city budget and tax rate have a say on how schools spend the money. And, as we have learned, schools can overspend their budget requiring the city to pay the deficit. Do you think the system needs to be changed and how?
My Answer to this question is here:
It should be noted that the School budget has not gone up in the last 4 years. Only 55 cents of the taxes now go to the schools. This clearly shows that I have made good decisions that have saved Warwick Taxpayers money while at the same time maintaining buildings, and keeping education moving forward.
The Warwick Beacon site does not allow for links. To see the linked information, you will need to copy and paste the link into your browser.
More savings are needed from the school admin. to shore up the pension and medical liabilities. All that is saved should go right towards that goal.
Thank you Michael. I should have added that Administration paid a 20% co-pay for medical and dental before any other group. I believe this change was made prior to 2010. I was on the committee at this time and pushed for and voted for the change. Administration is also paying their fair share. We have also had administration retire and rather than fill the positions we have combined the responsibilities into other positions.
Patrick Maloney
TRANSPARENCY?? Let me see if I have this straight...Maloney refuses to comment under advice of legal counsel no doubt and that is "BLATHER"?? Yeah right Pat go ahead and comment because this city loves to spend money foolishly..Like in the case of Mr. Naylor in which the administration totally screws up the case, (by design or incompetence?) of a rouge public works employee, wrongfully terminates him, and is forced to give him $8.000.00 dollars in back pay..because of the filing screw up....Real responsibility there, watching out for the taxpayer...Imagine the hue and cry if Maloney did speak out and open the door to untold thousands in legal costs and civil damages awarded to Arnold Horseshack? I have no idea why the super is getting dumped, perhaps we will all know at some point. What I am glad about is that a public official didn't have his brain in escrow and thought of repercussions before speaking...Re-elect the guy..He has integrity, which is something I can't say about a great many other quarters in this city..Mr. Howell, get a grip!..
Warwick is screwed.

Kids will love making this string of Stars to hang outside for a picnic or patriotic get-together. This is a great preschool craft for the 4th of July.
Items needed:
- Construction paper
- Cardboard to make a template
- Scissors
- Pencil or pen
- Yarn or string
- Tape or stapler
- Print Star patterns and choose which sizes you want to make.
- Cut out stars and then trace onto thin cardboard. Cut out. This will be your template.
- Trace cardboard template onto construction paper, using red, white and blue colors.
- Cut out Stars.
- Decide where you might want to hang your garland and then cut a piece of yarn or string long enough so that it can be tied to branches or some other place you choose.
- You can attach your stars one of several ways. Lay the stars down on the table in the pattern you want (red, white, blue etc.) and then lay the yarn/string along the top section of the stars and tape into place. OR You can staple the tops of the stars onto the yarn/string. A third choice is to use a hole punch and puch holes on both sides of the star and then just lace the yarn/string through. (use the same method each time however, "up through the bottom, down through the top")

Here is the 1900 US Census for Ole and Mari Finnestad's son-in-law, Lewis Joseph (Peterson) Travland.
Lewis had moved to Beeville, Texas from Milan township, DeKalb County, Illinois sometime after the death of his wife, Iverdine (Finnestad) in 1879. In 1880, Lewis was was still living in Milan township so I am not sure when he moved to Texas as the 1890 US Census was destroyed in a fire.
Also living in the household were Lewis' children (from his second marriage to Tilda Peterson), Inga, Martin, Lena, Ida and Ben.

Legally there is the copyright issue but practicality tends to make that approach unworkable. Yeah you could get lawyers involved and spend a lot of money but for what? Not like you suffered a real monetary loss so no lwyer is going to want the case.
It is also why most posts I make that involve anything I care about are done as links back to my website not the actual documentation posted directly to the forum. It may not stop copy / paste but at least I can maintain SOME control over aspects of my work

Pink Lube is a high-grade super slick silicone lube with Vitamin E and Aloe Vera, formulated especially for people with sensitive skin. Safe to use with polyisoprene condoms and easy to wash off, this thin, moisturizing formula is better suited for vaginal use than anal use. We recommend use with metal, wood, glass or ABS plastic sex toys as some silicone lubricants are not compatible with some silicone toys. Available in 4 and 2.8 oz.
Please Note:
We recommend using a water-based lubricant with silicone toys as some silicone lubricants may damage some silicone toys when used together. When using a silicone lubricant on a silicone toy, we suggest covering your toys with a condom in order to avoid incompatible combinations. You may also do a spot test by putting a drop of the silicone lubricant that you wish to use on the bottom of the base of your toy for at least 5 minutes. Wipe it off and check to see if there's a raised or sticky area, or other reaction. If so, cover your toy or use a different lubricant with it.
Good Vibrations will not accept returns or exchanges for defective silicone items that have been damaged by using them with a silicone lubricant.

I have been using Pink for about a year now, and it is hands down the best lube for someone with sensitive skin. I get burning sensations and extreme swelling if i come in contact with even a wrong brand condom or lube, and even some sensitive geared water lubes still give me a burning sensation. Pink feels great, i have no burning, no swelling, just plain slippery fun that i know wont let me down. Since its silicone, it lasts forever. Great on my own or with the boyfriend. Works ok for anal, but I'm still hunting for that specific lube.
I only use silicone based lubes and this one was very much worth the price tag! Smooth and long lasting. Kept me wet for my entire play session. Easy clean up and great for women with sensitive body chemistry! I also liked the bottle it came in and variety of sizes. Definitely would recommend!

The 0-7 reverse eariler in the season was avenged in as much that he Works forced a goal-less draw, depsite Syd Kig breaking an ankle that kept him out of action until the October of the following season.

Hammers Monthy Vol 1 No 1: Helliar's Hammers History Part One. By Jack Helliar Programme Editor WHUFC, writing about the TIW early years,
"The club colours were apparently red,white and blue, although the exact composition is not recorded in any history that I have come across. This possibly was because the Works founder Arnold Hills - was obviously a great patriot and the works had intimate connections with the Royal Navy"
Yes, this is interesting in the fact that I read that report from the West Ham Guardian for that game and also the 0-7 reverse at their place earlier in the season.At no stage does the report in the Guardian mention the colour of the kits so would be intersted to know where Jack Helliar gleamed his info from.
The other problem we have is that the Guardian does not go into detailed match reports for the Thames Ironworks and hence very little as regard the kit colours until we became West Ham United in 1900. From then on we are always the lead article in the sports section.
I may have to switch to the Stratford Express for Thames Ironworks days although someone has mentioned the West Ham Gazette which maybe another primary source worth looking at.
By the way it appears we were kicked off the park during the 0-7 reverse and there were even allegations that the Spurs players had sharpened their studs.We ended up with half the team injured and unable to play for several weeks, this led to a slump of form that nearly got us relegated. Cheating bastards. is it too late to hold an FA enquiry?

HVG, a major Hungarian globalist media source, made a perplexing video last week. They visited Sziget festival, a den of debauchery, and home to Europe's dumbest people.
Festival-goers were asked their opinion on the conservative Hungarian government's anti-illegal migration policy. Their replies were, predictably, stupid.
So what is HVG's purpose? Is it to flash a light down the bottomless well of liberal youth's ignorance and make us squirm in disgust? Or have they just completely missed the mark in an attempt to smear the Hungarian government, and have ended up making themselves look like morons?
Here is the video in full: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43aM_...

Coyotes Hang On Late, Beat Omaha In Vermillion 87-86
One constant problem nagging South Dakota through this Summit League season has been an inability to close out close games; four of USD's six conference defeats came by six points or less.
Thursday night in Vermillion, the Coyotes finally got on to go their way, with a 87-86 win over Omaha.
Early on, the Coyotes got a reminder about just how quick this Omaha team was, as the Mavericks took every opportunity - even a made USD basket - to push the ball upcourt and score.
CJ Carter helped key an early UNO 6-0 run as he scored 11 of the Mavs first 13 points and Omaha was up four.
The Coyotes answer to the Mavs speed was red hot shooting in the first half. USD shot a blistering 69 percent in the first eight minutes to lead by as many as ten.
Omaha wrestled the momentum back heading into halftime, going on a 16-7 run to pull to within three, 38-35 USD at the break.
Tyler Flack leading the Coyote 57 percent shooting attack with 11 points in the first 20 minutes. Carter and Mike Rostampour each had 11 for the Mavericks, who shot 41 percent in the first half.
In the second half, USD senior Trevor Gruis, already battling the flu, now had a new concern, foul trouble, as he headed to the bench less than three minutes in.
Without him on the floor, Omaha took advantage, reeling off a 15-8 run to grab a four point advantage, but almost as quickly the Coyotes ran off ten straight as the lead went back and forth with USD up four.
Justin Simmons, who did not play in the first half, made his presence known in the second with back-to-back steals and slam dunks to keep Omaha within one with 9:30 to play.
