Exclusive Nebraska Clip: The Joy of Kids
Posted November 18, 2013 by Rick in Movie News
Alexander Payne's comedy drama Nebraska is already receiving a host of plaudits (we raved about it when we saw it originally at Cannes, for starters). And our exclusive clip shows it's easy to understand why. The plot, which finds an aging, booze-addled father hitting the road with his estranged son on a trip to claim a million dollar Mega Sweepstakes prize boasts two strong leads with charming, magnetic chemistry in the form of Woody (Bruce Dern) and his son David (Will Forte). Case in point, this clip, which shows a refreshingly frank, curmudgeonly Woody dispelling a little life wisdom, and the real reason why he fathered children. Nebraska is in UK cinemas from 6 December 2013.

WEDNESDAY, April 23, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- New research suggests that people with more education recover significantly better from serious head injuries.
Scientists from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore found that adults with moderate to severe traumatic brain injuries who had earned at least an undergraduate degree were more than seven times as likely to completely recover from their injury than those who didn't finish high school.
The research focused on how "cognitive reserve" -- the brain's ability to maintain function despite damage -- affects recovery from traumatic brain injury. The results echo previous research in Alzheimer's dementia suggesting that more years of education, believed to lead to more effective brain use and greater cognitive reserve, slows progression of symptoms.
"I'm not sure we can quite say you should stay in school based on this study alone. But if one looks at the dementia literature, maintaining the health of your brain by being actively involved in your life is important," said study author Eric Schneider, an epidemiologist and assistant professor of surgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
"And in the unlikely event of injury to your brain, it may help," he added.
The study is published online April 23 in the journal Neurology.
About 2.5 million traumatic brain injuries occur each year in the United States and such injuries are among the leading causes of death and disability in children and young adults, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Not all bumps to the head result in a traumatic brain injury, but all of these injuries are caused by a blow, jolt or penetrating injury that upsets normal brain function, the CDC notes.
For the new study, Schneider and his colleagues analyzed 769 patients who had been hospitalized with a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury -- most from motor vehicle accidents or falls -- and later admitted to a rehabilitation facility.
Participants, who were at least 23 years old, were tracked for a minimum of one year after their injury. Grouped by education level, 24 percent had not finished high school; 51 percent had finished high school and some college education; and 25 percent had obtained at least an undergraduate degree, totaling 16 or more years of education.
Researchers found that one year post-injury, participants with some college education were nearly five times more likely to fully recover than those without a high school diploma. Only 10 percent of those who hadn't graduated from high school were free of disability, compared with 31 percent of those with some college education and 39 percent of those with a college degree.
All participants had access to similar-quality health care and rehabilitation after their traumatic brain injury, Schneider said, so results were not compromised by variations in treatment based on education levels.
He acknowledged that it's difficult to prove the cognitive reserve theory or its role in recovery from brain injury and disease, but "it's a fairly well-validated tool."
"We had thought there might be a similar finding in [traumatic brain injury] to what has been demonstrated in other areas where the brain is injured across time. We were pleased to see that the cognitive reserve theory might also be associated with outcomes in acute brain injuries."
Another expert noted that the new study didn't show a cause-and-effect relationship between a person's education level and ability to recover from a traumatic brain injury.
Dr. Howard Derman, a neurologist and co-director of the Methodist Concussion Center in Houston, called the new research "interesting" but said other unexamined factors -- such as patient motivation -- may also account for the discrepancy in recovery between less-educated and more-educated brain injury patients.
"I'm not refuting the observation, I'm just saying that in my mind, [the researchers] can't just say it's because these people are using [more] of their brain before being injured than the others," Derman said. "Cognitive reserve might be one factor, but there are other issues that are ongoing that are equally persuasive as to why those people might do better."
Study author Schneider said future research should focus on the biological mechanisms underlying cognitive reserve and how these processes are associated with education and learning.
"Understanding the biology could help us find ways to encourage brain recovery across the board," he said.

Pasta - why is the shape so important?
- Peg Dec 1, 2009 01:18 PM
While stuck on a long journey today my mind turned to food. As ever. Anyway, it occurrect to me that I adore macaroni and spaghetti - but penne, farfalle etc give me no pleasure at all.
Seeing as they are all made from the same ingredients there is obviously something going on here other than flavour. And if it applies to pasta - then what else do I like because of non-taste reasons?
Hmmm. OK, so there's a reason lurking there why you like some pasta and not others.
I can think of two reasons why that might be.
Firstly, some pastas traditionally go well with certain sauces. You never hear anyone rave over their "farfalle cheese". So, it may be that you like certain pastas because of the sauce that goes with it. Applying the same logic, you might like an ice cream cone because of the ice cream it contains - but you wouldnt enjoy the cone without ice cream. Unless you were odd.
Second, you might like certain pastas because of their texture. Macaroni & spaghetti both being thinnish tubes. There's probably many foods where you enjoy the texture perhaps more than taste - for me, mussels are like that. Love them but I like the slipperyness more than the actual taste.
re: Harters
I think this is a good analysis. In addition, some pastas are harder to cook because of their shape, especially ones that are folded or pinched (farfalle would be one) -- the thicker parts don't cook at the same rate as the thinner parts, and so it's hard to find the right compromise on doneness. I've never cared much for penne myself -- for some reason it tends to be tough. That said, I bought some pasta shaped like a large curved tube with a ruffle on the outer edge and it made great mac n cheese: the cheese not only got into the tube it adhered really well to the ruffle.
re: Ruth Lafler
"pasta shaped like a large curved tube with a ruffle on the outer edge"
I think those are Cresti di gallo, Ruth. Rooster comb. I really like that shape. And radiatore.
I dislike spaghetti (angel hair even more) but for some reason, when I'm carbo loading for an athletic event, I can't get enough of it!
re: Harters
I love spag with garlic and oil - but dislike (or at best am indifferent to) farfalle with the same 'sauce'.
So I think it is more a texture - or 'mouthfeel' thing.
Eating is about many things; it's visual, olfactive and gustatory. it's emotional; it can stir up anxiety, fear, pleasure, happiness, disgust. It's cultural; people are willing to eat what they were taught was "right", regardless of other culture's responses. It's about shape, color, texture. For you, it may be as simple as preferring a particular shape overall, rather than the actual flavor of the food product. I mean to say you tend to eat with your eyes first and you personally have preferences for certain shapes over others. When I make a pasta dish, for example, I think about how the shape of the pasta relates to the sauce I'm making, rather than how it will taste with the sauce. I don't, however, choose a pasta based solely on it's shape, but that's me.
I have friends that don't care for rice, not because of it's flavor but the appearance of rice has a less than pleasant meaning for them; they equate the appearance of the rice with something they've experienced, somewhere in their lives, that was off-putting.
People will choose food, or not, based on smell. It's a strong response with emotional ties, the aroma of your mom's stew compared to a rather odoriferous cheese you didn't necessarily experience as a child. Of course, taste changes throughout life so you just may end up loving that cheese.
I have other issues, though, texture is meaningful for me. Texture is a deal maker or breaker; I am visually curious about food and will try anything just by the way it looks, but when it hits my mouth, it can mean something else entirely to me.
You should mentally explore what other food products you like and why, as to appearance, and see if there are other food choices you make based on that aspect. Maybe you really enjoy certain colors and tend to choose those or stay away from colors you don't "feel." Color is actually a big deal for most people when is comes to choosing what to eat.
It's how you see the world, food, and it's not a bad thing. BTW, no one likes everything, anyway. People make food choices based on a myriad of individual, and highly personal, responses. Maybe you never experienced farfalle in a meaningful way, based on your life experiences. Or maybe it's just a simple as not "feeling" the shape. Your preference for a certain shape of pasta over another is your highly personal response.
I hope I've been helpful here.
re: bushwickgirl
Good analysis BWG. I always have a battle with my wife when we visit the grocery pasta aisle. She buys only very thin spaghetti while I prefer the standard variety plus many other shapes. She says "it's all pasta!" , but I think different shapes fit different sauces. Perhaps her attitude is a reaction to the "family italian" restaurants hereabouts, which usually seem to serve penne with tomato sauce with their dinners as the default pasta.
This caught my eye because my husband has what I call "pasta pickyness" and only likes certain pasta shapes. Spaghetti, macaroni, linguine, lasagna, ravioli, farfalle, shells, fettucine all okay. Can't stand penne though and doesn't like orichette. I can make two dishes with the same exact sauce, one served over penne and the other served over, say, spaghetti and he will love the spaghetti and not want to eat the penne. He says it is "too much pasta". This is true even when it is a sauce better suited to penne than spaghetti. Just one of those things that you can't understand if you don't feel the same way I think.
Reminds me of my experience in Torino, Italy when my friend took me to his favorite pasta restaurant. There were various shapes listed on the left and sauces on the right. They told me I could mix-n-match.Then every combination I picked resulted in the waiter rolling his eyes, raising his voice louder each time, and telling me in various words that *that* sauce doesn't go with *that* shape. I was so embarassed and wondered why they didn't draw lines so that you knew what can go with what. Apparently Italians know.
Like most good food questions, seems there's always already something on Chowhound about it. Have you already seen this? http://www.chow.com/stories/11099
re: nevra
I used to live in Torino and I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that you're talking about a lovely local restaurant and not- God forbid- the DISGUSTING Pastarito Pizzarito! I occasionally had to eat at the latter during quick working lunches and every. single. time. would rather have gone hungry. If that was where you were eating, take the words of the waiter with a grain of salt. He was probably just giving you a hard time. There definitely are "norms" in terms of what pasta shapes go with which sauces, but they certainly wouldn't come into play in a cheapo chain restaurant like that. In the two years I lived in Italy nobody EVER insulted my pasta and sauce choices!
re: Jetgirly
Teehee, thanks for the feedback Jetgirly. Good to know. I wish I could remember the name, but it was many years ago, although it left a strong memory, as you can see! Glad to know that this may have been unusual. Next time I go to Italy, I'm definitely going to consult this board first!
Is it me or are some shapes more difficult to eat than others.
When eating gemili or rotini I can't get more than one or two on my fork without them falling off, or is that the way you're supposed to eat them...one or two at a time or stabbing a few onto your fork?
Spaghetti, linguini or angel hair you can twist them around your fork.
re: dump123456789
That''s just practical.
re: dump123456789
If it has a great bolognese on it then you get the most value per scoop. Hard to criticize that theory.
Here are a couple of other reasons on choosing a particular pasta shape:
1 - The business meal - NEVER order long pasta. There is a high likelihood that some of the sauce will hit your shirt. Order a shape that will allow for neat eating. Second point is the question and answer part. If you swirl the long pasta and place in your mouth you are committed to chew a large amount and not be in a position to answer the question. That momentary silence is not a good thing. Rule - a business meal is not about eating, it is about business. Best choice is penne, eating 2 at a time. Even better is if the restaurant has risotto, whic is in jfood's opinion the ultimate business meal entree.
2 - Diet - The amount of pasta on a plate is vastly great with long pasta versus penne type. So if you are looking to cut pasta-calories choose penne, rotini or best rigatoni.
These points are in addition to all of the good points above about how certain shapes are better fro certain sauces.
re: jfood
"2 - Diet - The amount of pasta on a plate is vastly great with long pasta versus penne type. So if you are looking to cut pasta-calories choose penne, rotini or best rigatoni."
I'm not sure about that. I usually weigh out portions, so I'm eating the same amount whether it's penne (and I much prefer penne rigate, as the sauce sticks to it better) or spaghetti. I find bucatini particularly difficult to eat neatly.
re: MMRuth
Hey MM and happy holiday to you and the fam.
Think about this as a volume analysis. Long pasta has no interior space as penne and therefore when placed on a plate is has pasta and sauce with no air gaps. The penne has air gaps fromthe inside of the pasta. So when you place the penne pasta on a dish you have pasta, sauce and air. So the same cubic area that is consumed by the long pasta will contain more pasta than if it were penne.
Now if the question is which weighs more a pound of penne or a pound of spaghetti, that's easy.
Try this experiment. Make 4oz of penne and 4oz of spaghetti , drain and place on plates. Which looks like more? Now that you have that answer the bad news is that you need to add some sauce to both and eat them. :-)
re: JanPrimus
I would have guessed that restaurants would use the same amount (by weight) of pasta, regardless of the shape. I understand the concept of some pastas appearing to fill the plate more, or less.
I have been noticing this too. However, for me, Penne is the best Pasta ever. Something about the size, shape, cooking time, just seems to click for me. Penne are the Punji sticks that trap, kill, and drain all the wonderful flavours from the tiger that is my sauce.
I am surprised that no one (other than Ruth Lafler) has mentioned that different pasta shapes "catch" the sauce in different ways, which will probably affect the overall flavor of the dish, if we define flavor as the combination of taste and texture.
My bolognese always tastes different when served with penne than with spaghetti, or with fettucini versus spaghetti, because you get a different amount of sauce with each pasta/noodle. When I eat spaghetti I almost never taste the spaghetti, which is dominated by the sauce, but with larger pasta shapes I taste more of the pasta in the overall flavor.
re: Roland Parker
I made that point upthread:
"When I make a pasta dish, for example, I think about how the shape of the pasta relates to the sauce I'm making, rather than how it will taste with the sauce."
For some reason--and I'm hard-pressed to say exactly why--I do not like fettucini. Linguini is fine (so to speak), and I adore spaghetti and capellini as well as pappardelle, but fettucini just does nothing for me.
Bucatini is almost always served with Al'Amatriciana sauce, I guess the idea is that the hole in the pasta catches the sauce... I am not sure if I ever notive that it does this, but I always buy it when I make Amatriciana even though I am sure I would like the sauce just as much with another shape. My favorite all around shapes are cavatelli and campanelle- though I am not sure why. I also love it when I can find super long fusilli (that is as long as spaghetti)
re: cassoulady
You like a lot of the same pastas i do. Cavatelli and Campanelle, long fusilli (twice as long as spaghetti). But to add, depending on the sauce, orrechiette, cavatappi, and orzo are also yummy!
Just to add my two cents here, the pasta "shape" helps regulate how much pasta actually makes it into your mouth with every spoonful or forkful you lift to it. If too much pasta, and say not enough vegetable, sauce, or cheese accompany it, you *might* find it unappealing. Anyone who prepares pasta should always be concious of the CUT of pasta used for any given recipe. You want your ratio of pasta to sauce to be correct, and you want to be aware of the various cooking times required for your perfect al dente pasta (again based ALL on its shape).
The OP likes spaghetti. That's a pasta that layers itself ever so closely strand upon strand when wrapped around on a fork. The penne on the other hand, have huge voids in them, so you get less pasta with every forkful/mouthful, and as a result you you get a completely different mouthfeel. Also, be mindful of the fact that spaghetti isn't the best vessel for sauce or cheese, as say a penne might be or even a conchiglie. All these points factor in to reasons why you might find other cuts of pasta not as pleasing. A lot of it has to do with RATIO.
The next subject to approach would be lettuces and how you like or dislike any of those.
I absolutely agree that this is a texture thing. It is for me. Certain foods need the proper texture (which is quite subjective). Of all the shapes I love, rigatoni is my absolute most favorite, hands down. I LOVE RIGATONI. But not just any rigatoni. Barilla made a HORRIBLE move by changing their rigatoni years ago into what's probably best described as a form of Penne Rigati. It is terrible. Looks and feels nothing like a good rigatoni. I complained to them, but I guess people aren't as passionate about this pasta shape as I am. God, this sounds ridiculous. HAHA. Big ribbed tubes of rigatoni (that just sounds wrong) with homemade pasta sauce, meatballs, sausage, lamb, and some pecorino romano cheese.... oh, that is what comfort food means to me. A gift from my grandmother and mom.
It's a Momma thing. Most folks think that Momma was the best cook in the world, and anything that is not quite like her cooking is not quite right.
My mother was a horrible cook, and I don't , thankfully, hopefully, cook like her. But whatever she cooked was, at the time, wonderful.
I, too, prefer macaroni and spaghetti with most anything. And, by the way, I never figured out the proper way to eat it. Before taking on a plate of spaghetti, I cut it up into fork manageable pieces.
re: condie
My dad used to cut up his spaghetti as well. But twirling it on your fork is the only way to go, IMO!

Raising Veg Kids
Q: My kid just went vegetarian. What do I need to know?
A: First, know that you are a lucky parent. Your child has just made one of the most healthful decisions any childor adultcan make. When it comes to health benefits, going vegetarian is right up there with quitting smoking and avoiding substance abuse.
Many children today are at risk for weight problems, and things only get worse as they reach adulthood. One in three children born in 2000 will develop diabetes at some point in his or her life, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Heart disease and diet-related cancers are epidemics. But children who are raised as vegetarians or go vegetarian gain a measure of protection against these problems. Take it from the American Dietetic Association, which released a position statement on vegetarian diets in 2009:
"Vegetarian diets are often associated with a number of health advantages, including lower blood cholesterol levels, lower risk of heart disease, lower blood pressure levels, and lower risk of hypertension and type 2 diabetes. Vegetarians tend to have lower body mass index (BMI) and lower overall cancer rates."
The ADA went on to say: "Vegetarian diets in childhood and adolescence can aid in the establishment of lifelong healthful eating patterns and can offer some important nutritional advantages."
In other words, vegetarian diets are great, and it pays to start early.
Q: OK, but will vegetarian kids grow properly?
A: According to the ADA, vegetarian children grow just fine. In fact, in a study of 1,765 children and adolescents in Southern California, vegetarians actually averaged about an inch taller than their meat-eating counterparts.
And what about overall nutrition? As a good parent, you are no doubt wondering if your child is getting all the essentials. Let's look at the nutrients parents worry about most:
Protein: There is plenty of protein in grains, vegetables, beans, and bean products (e.g., tofu, soymilk). And they do not need to be eaten in any special combinations; a normal variety of these foods, consumed over the course of a day, provides all the protein a growing child needs.
Calcium: Green leafy vegetables and legumesor "greens and beans," for shortare rich in calcium. This is particularly true for certain greens, such as broccoli, collards, kale, bok choy, and Brussels sprouts, in contrast to spinach, whose calcium is poorly absorbed. You'll also find plenty of calcium in fortified foods, such as fortified orange juice or soymilk. And don't fight over vegetables your child doesn't like. Just serve the ones that do go over well. Tastes broaden as the years go by.
Iron: Greens and beans, which are rich in iron, come to the rescue again. Vitamin C-rich foods, such as citrus fruits, tend to enhance the absorption of iron consumed in the same meal. If you are concerned, a daily multivitamin-mineral supplement will easily have you covered.
Vitamin B12: Vitamin B12 is essential for healthy blood and nerves. It is not found in unfortified plant foods, although it is present in dairy products and eggs, which you may or may not be serving. But vitamin B12 is easy to find in many fortified breakfast cereals, fortified soymilk, and all common multivitamins. I recommend that everyonevegetarian or nottake a multivitamin or other convenient source of vitamin B12 every day. Even meat-eaters often run low, due to poor absorption.
So, when it comes to growth and overall health, don't worry. Vegetarian children do really well. You should worry more about the nonvegetarians in your family.
Which brings us to the second thing you should know: it is easier for children to stick with a healthful vegetarian diet when the rest of the family is on the same path. So if your child has gone veg, it's time for you to consider doing the same. It will help the whole family stay slim and healthy for many years to come.
2 Rules of Thumb
Your child will get all the nutrients he or she needs if you do two things:
1. Each day, serve foods from the four healthful food groups: vegetables, fruits, legumes (beans, peas, and lentils), and whole grains.
2. Include a reliable source of vitamin B12, such as any common multivitamin or fortified foods.May/June 2010 p.38

Now that I'm back to being a functional human being (read: well-rested and fed), it's officially time to wade back into the sea of homework. Unfortunately, I'm still feeling a bit sluggish getting back into it—so after a few hours of slow work, I just ended up experimenting with some media on a few pieces of scrap paper.
The images below are actually reflective of how they were stacked in Photoshop, not the order that they were created in! (Spoiler alert: real process is at the end of the post.)
3. Ink wash (colour corrected)
4. Charcoal for texture. This one was a bit of a twist—I hadn't experimented with dry media for tonal areas until now.
6. Colour correction over the whole thing—that's it!
In terms of the actual order each layer was produced in, I actually drew the lines out with the pen first, followed by charcoal, then the Photoshop base layer. The three layers alone were still looking a bit bare, so I added the ink wash & brush pen—which has really become a go-to for me.
All in all, this thing took me (probably) less than 30 minutes! Now I just need to find a way to do homework this easily & quickly..

November 25, 2014
RENO, NV - Reno police are looking for two people in a white SUV who were shooting at a man in another car.
The call went out shortly after 3pm Monday from the 2300 block of Tripp Drive, on the east side of Hug High School. Police say the man in a red sedan was not hit, though there are bullet holes in his car. They also found shell casings in the street.
Police are questioning the driver of the sedan, and have not determined a possible motive. But they say the shooting followed a fight on the school's campus.
There are no reports of any shooting at the school itself.
The suspects are described as Hispanic and around 20 years old. One has black slicked-back hair and a thin mustache, and was wearing a white T-shirt. The other has a shaved head, with thick mustache and goatee, and was wearing a white T-shirt.
This investigation continues and anyone else who may have information regarding these suspects is encouraged to contact Secret Witness at 322-4900 or the Regional Gang Unit at 334-3852.

Arg of Karim Khan
|Arg of Karim Khan
|Shiraz, Iran
|Site history
The Arg of Karim Khan (Persian: ارگ کریم خان Arg-e Karim Khan) is a citadel located in the north-east of Shiraz, southern Iran. It was built as part of a complex during the Zand dynasty and is named after Karim Khan, and served as his living quarters. In shape it resembles a medieval fortress.
At times, the citadel was used as a prison. Today, it is a museum operated by Iran's Cultural Heritage Organization.
The Arg of Karim Khan is also known as Arge Karim Khan, Arge KarimKhani and Citadel of Karim Khan.
Arg-e-Karim Khan was built in 1180 AH (1766-7). Karim Khan invited the best architects and artists of the time and bought the best materials from other cities and abroad for the construction of the citadel of Karim Khan, which was quickly constructed. During the Zand dynasty it was used by the king as living quarters. During the Qajar period it was used as the governor's seat.
Prince Abdolhosein Mirza Farmanfarma, governor of Fars Province, ordered the miniatures in the citadel to be renovated.
After the fall of the Qajar Dynasty it was converted into a prison and the paintings were plastered over. In 1971 it was given to Iran's Cultural Heritage Organization. The renovation of the citadel started in 1977.
The Arg of Karim Khan is located at Shohada Square. It has a land area of 4,000 m2 and is in the centre of a 12,800 m2 compound.[1] The citadel of Karim Khan consists of four high walls connected by four 14 m round brick towers at a 90-degree angle. Each 12m wall is crenalized and is 3 metres thick at the base and 2.8 metres at the top.[1][2] The design of the citadel combines military and residential architecture, for it was the home of Karim Khan and the military centre of the dynasty.[2]
James Edward Alexander in 1827 described the citadel as being surrounded by a "deep wet ditch".[3]
Tile works depicting legendary tales were added at the entrance gate of the citadel during the Qajar period.

Just person opinion, but I think you should fill in the A5 sticker spot. A quick fill in and sand over to make it look flat would look great. Then you should but a coat of paint to touch it up. just my opinion though.

The Longbow stock is a good compromise between long & short setups. My A-5 was first setup the same way, but I eventually dropped the stock because I wanted an even tighter setup. My accuracy wasn't as good without the shoulder support though.

Gary Morgan, Curator of Paleontology, NMMNHS
Campers celebrating a bachelor party at Elephant Butte Reservoir found a very unique fossil this year. It may be the most complete stegomastodon skull ever found, and the only complete one found in New Mexico. This elephant-like animal roamed New Mexico millions of years ago. After careful excavation, the skull is now in the Museum's Fossilworks exhibit being prepared for research and display. Hear the story of the state's fossils from an expert on fossil mammals from the last 35 million years, and learn what they can tell us about New Mexico's past.
Gary Morgan is a curator of vertebrate paleontology at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science. In New Mexico, he has worked on fossil mammals from the Rio Grande Valley south of Las Cruces, cave deposits in Carlsbad Caverns National Park, horses and mammoths in the Gila National Forest, and fossils in Sandia Cave in the Sandia Mountains. He is one of five co-Principal Investigators on a major 5-year NSF-funded international science project to study the paleontology of the Panama Canal.

A few days ago , I was playing a game on my phone when an add popped up. I have to admit, I was pretty annoyed with the ads now popping up on my phone. As I sat there waiting impatiently for the ad to end, I heard a message that stopped me in my tracks, and struck a cord within me on a very deep level. They were playing a song that I had heard many times before but had never truly heard . This time I did however, and, what a whole new perspective! " I just want to celebrate another day of living, I just want to celebrate, celebrate, another day of life". I didn't just hear the words this time, I felt the power of the message behind them. The messages are all around us, prompting us, reminding us, yet how often do we listen? I was amazed at how simple the words were, yet truly applying them in my life would totally transform me and how I lived day to day. Living life as a celebration, not taking for granted that I would wake up each day and be here to see the day end. While I know this on an intellectual level, we all do, how different would I be if I actually lived it? I saw each day, each experience for what it is, a gift. None of us are promised tomorrow, all we really have is right now, to fully live, in this moment. Living from this new perspective, I feel a sense of gratitude for being alive, I give myself permission not to hold back, wait for a better time to do something. For there is no better time, this is the time. Use the good china, wear our favorite clothes that we are saving for a special occasion, tell the people in our life how much we love them, do the things that make us happy, now, not later. How freeing, how empowering to live from this new perspective. If this stirs something in you also, come join me on August 23 from 11-3 for my workshop to explore- are your beliefs holding you back or propelling you forward, living every day as a celebration? I just want to celebrate another day of living, celebrate another day of Life!!

About Healing Touch
(Information as taken from www.healingtouchprogram.com)
What is Healing Touch?
Healing Touch is an energy therapy in which practitioners consciously use their hands in a heart-centered and intentional way to support and facilitate physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health.
Healing Touch is a biofield (magnetic field around the body) therapy that is an energy-based approach to health and healing.
Healing Touch uses the gift of touch to influence the human energy system, specifically the energy field that surrounds the body, and the energy centers that control the flow from the energy field to the physical body.
These non-invasive techniques employ the hands to clear, energize, and balance the human and environmental energy fields, thus affecting physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. It is based on a heart-centered, caring relationship in which the practitioner and client come together energetically to facilitate the client's health and healing.
The goal of Healing Touch is to restore balance and harmonies in the energy system, placing the client in a position to self heal.
What do the experts say about Healing Touch?
-James Oschman Ph.D.
Energy Medicine, The Scientific Basis, 2000.
Healing Touch Research
Healing Touch Research has been conducted in a wide variety of settings and with a number of different problems and situations including:
These studies demonstrate that there is support in favor of considering Healing Touch for providing integrative care and that patients assess it highly. Healing Touch research has been supported and/or funded by hospitals, universities, colleges, professional organizations, private foundations, and the National Institutes of Health, Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine.
How does Energy Healing work?
Many theoretical frameworks on how energy medicine works exist in the literature of quantum physics and holistic healing. However, while the exact physics mechanisms can not be definitively described at this time, the cumulative results of numerous related studies on energy medicine and consciousness indicate strong support that "something is happening" and that recipients respond positively to energy therapies such as Healing Touch.
Over the years, researchers have developed ways to measure the energy field. Theoretically, by correcting any defects in the energy field, energy therapy practices may facilitate healing of the body, mind and spirit.
Energy therapies focus on removing energy congestion that form in our energy fields (aura) and energy centers (chakras). Once these imbalances and disturbances are cleared, the energy channels resume their task of integrating the body, mind and soul to restore health and promote healing. It may also help to prevent future issues by restoring balance to energy field disturbances, which could later result in illness if left unbalanced.c
To gain a deeper understanding of the science supporting energy healing, please refer to the many books, journal articles and research findings written on this subject. Scientific evidence does exist that supports the premise that energy healing is effective. However, an experience is worth a thousand words, so the receiving of a Healing Touch treatment can do more to understand this phenomena than all the writings in the world.
What are the benefits of Healing Touch?
By Sue Bara, Certified Naturalist, Herbalist, Reiki Master/Teacher
The smell of fresh greens, vibrant florals, and pungent roots permeate the air, wafting from baskets overflowing with plants from the garden and valley. The local "wild woman" quietly gives her thanks to the plants and the earth for her bountiful harvest, which she will turn into medicine for her community…
Herbal medicine has been around for thousands of years. It's a tradition steeped in deep respect for the plants and the earth, for their living sacrifice in providing food and medicine. And not so very long ago, every home had someone versed in basic herbal remedies. The home medicine chest was filled with plants like chamomile or catnip to soothe upset stomachs, yarrow to stop bleeding or help break a fever, and other basic herbs to treat all those little things that life throws at us. Long before there were pharmacies, there were plants. And they're still here, offering some amazing and simple medicine.
In our neighboring state of New Jersey, David Winston runs his Center for Herbal Studies, where he brings his 35+ years of experience, offering both onsite classes and an online live webcast. David is a world-renowned herbalist, ethnobotanist, and a founding member of the American Herbalist Guild. I have been honored to be in David's program for the past year and a half, where he teaches an intense study of more than 300 herbs, along with the basic systems of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, Cherokee, and American herbalism. Students learn not only about each herb, but how they work in the body and may interact with medications, how to understand clinical studies, and most importantly, how to treat people, not diseases. To me, that is the true beauty of herbal medicine: Herbalists treat people, not diseases. We see you as a whole person, spending time to get to know you and discover which herbs will work best to help you be well.
Herbal medicine was quietly tended in the background while pharmaceuticals took the spotlight, being practiced and taught by traditional herbalists who shared what they knew with those willing to learn. And now we can benefit from those who kept herbalism alive, learning not only from from books written by masters in the field like David Winston, Michael Moore, David Hoffman, Susun Weed, and Rosemary Gladstar (to name just a few), but we can immerse ourselves in some excellent online programs taught by experienced and reliable practitioners who are members of the American Herbalist Guild, with programs ranging from simple evening workshops to 2 or 4 year clinical programs (visit http://americanherbalistsguild.com/schools/all). And of course, there are many new community herbalists starting to offer local plant walks, classes, and consultations. Check your local health food store, co-op, and local nature societies to see what's happening in your area.
Herbal remedies have made their way into the mainstream, with herbs available in local health food shops and even grocery stores. We are also starting to see the bridge between nature and science, with clinical studies beginning to understand and document the healing abilities of plants. Some plants have been shown to be effective against antibiotic-resistant bacteria, while others are helping to curb the side effects of chemotherapy. And there are many more places where herbs and western medicine can work well together.
As an herbalist, I hope to soon be introducing some of the wonderful, simple medicine that plants have to offer to our community right here in Delaware, especially for stress management, first aid, and those pesky ailments like viruses. I hope that every home will choose to have a few of our "green allies" to help treat stomach upset, insect bites, minor injuries, and stress, and that our local abundant "weeds" like stinging nettles, dandelion, chickweed, and red clover will once again be used and recognized for their healing and nutritional properties. I hope to help our community merge the benefits of western medicine and herbal medicine, enhancing wellness for us all.
By Jamie Mitchell, Certified Empowerment Coach and Founder of Illuminate You Coaching
One of the biggest topics discussed in my coaching practice is self love. The client usually comes to me with a set of goals they want to achieve and a list of reasons why they believe they cannot reach their goals. After a few sessions (or more) we come to the conclusion that the key to getting what they want is SELF LOVE or in other words SELF ACCEPTANCE and SELF APPROVAL.
When you truly love yourself, you feel joy, excitement and passion. Remember a time when you felt really good about yourself and how well your life was going? Your problems just seem to disappear and everything just seemed to fall into place. By feeling good about yourself you are also letting go of your resistance to the constant flow of well-being that is available to you.
In this culture, we beat ourselves up, blame ourselves for everything and judge ourselves relentlessly. There is a saying that I learned in coaching school that sums this up perfectly: "If we treated our friends the way we treat ourselves, we would all be in jail". No wonder we are not creating the life we really want. We are buying into false beliefs about ourselves that we collect and create along our life's journey. By being conscious of these beliefs we can start to change the way we see and think about ourselves and start truly feeling the love we deserve.
So let's take a look at these beliefs/blocks that keep us from truly loving ourselves. As you read through each of the 4 listed below, think about the beliefs/blocks that are keeping you from truly loving yourself.
Limiting Beliefs: A general idea or statement. A belief about an event or a situation that is outside of ourselves. They come from the media, our parents, religion, etc. They are not based on our personal experiences, but something we take on as true for us. An example of a limiting belief would be: Good mothers never get frustrated with their children. Many of us grew up with Carol Brady and the perfect picture of moms on TV. We also see our friends with their children and judge ourselves against their behavior (even though they are on their best "mom" behavior when we are together). So if we take on this belief as true and we get frustrated with our children, then we would see ourselves as bad mothers. We then beat ourselves up and feel terrible and in turn continue to create this same scenario. Start thinking about the limiting beliefs that stop you from loving yourself that come from some outside influence and write them down. When you are done, ask yourself, "How true is that belief really?'' and "How can I let that belief go?". When we ask ourselves those questions, we realize that the belief is not really true at all. We all know many women that are truly wonderful mothers that also get frustrated with their children. We can let it go by replacing it with a new belief: I am a kind and loving mother who sometimes gets frustrated with her children.
Interpretation: Something happens, an event occurs and you make up a story (interpretation) about it. This interpretation is coming from your own personal frame of reference. It becomes true for you, but it is not the truth. This example of an interpretation comes from a session with my clients (names have been changed): Mary believed that her sister-in-law, Judy did not like her. When the family would get together Judy would chat with her for a short time to be polite and would then go off and spend the rest of her time with other family members. Mary felt she had made an effort over the years to become closer to Judy by inviting her to lunch or including her when Mary and her friends got together, but Judy always refused. Mary stopped asking and just decided that Judy did not like her. This belief made Mary feel very badly about herself. She would often ask herself, "What is wrong with me?" When Mary and I talked about this in our coaching session, I said to her, "Because you don't really know the real reason that Judy refuses your invitations and because you have the choice to believe whatever you want about this situation, what is another way of looking at this or another interpretation that feels good to you?" She thought about it for a few moments and said, "Well, another interpretation might be that Judy is very private and doesn't share herself emotionally with many people". I asked Mary, "How does that new interpretation feel?" And she replied, "Much better because I realize that Judy's behavior is not about me". Can you think of an interpretation that is keeping you from truly loving yourself? What are some other ways you can interpret that situation that make you feel better?
Assumption: Because it happened to me in the past, it will happen to me again. Assumptions come with a long laundry list of why they are true. An example of an assumption is a belief that I had about meeting the "right" man. I believed that I would never meet the "One" and have a successful relationship because of all of the boyfriends that I had in my past. Holding on to this belief left me feeling sad and defeated. I used to think that something had to be wrong with me because I could not attract the great relationship I wanted? Clearly, something was wrong with my "relationship skills". At any given moment I could have given you a long list of why I would never find "Mr. Right". I am attracted to the wrong men, the men I like don't like me, I am not pretty enough, men did not appreciate me, all my past relationships have not worked out, etc. What are the assumptions you make about your future that is based on your past experiences that are keeping you from loving yourself? When you figure them out, ask yourself, "Just because that was true for me in the past, why does it have to be true for me now? Shortly after I decided that my past did not have to be my future, I met my husband.
Gremlin: Part of the Ego. That inner critic that makes us doubts ourselves. This gremlin is a part of us, but it does not define us. This belief/block holds the most energy for us and has the most power. The gremlin is all about making us feel not "good enough" in some way. For one of my clients, her gremlin doubted her abilities as a writer. Her gremlin told her that she was not good enough to be a writer and that she didn't have anything valuable to share. By identifying her gremlin and seeing it as separate from herself, she is able to move beyond the doubts and recently finished her first chapter of the book she is writing. Do any gremlins come to mind for you as you read this? Once you identify your gremlin at work it loses its power over you. It can even help you to give it a name so that you can see it as separate from you. You can also use positive affirmations to replace those gremlin beliefs like I am powerful, I love me, or I am an awesome writer!
My hope is that by being more conscious of the ways that our beliefs keep us from truly loving ourselves, we can change the negative, false and self defeating beliefs that have come from our families, society and personal experiences. We can replace them with loving and supportive beliefs that lead us to a life that we truly want and deserve. You can start by looking in the mirror and saying, "I love you. You are amazing!"

It would be a mistake to think that if you've seen one fish up close and personal you've seen them all. Deep Sea 3D is a total-immersion undersea adventure, in which the oceans' glories are on vivid display in three dimensions.
Deep Sea 3D, along with the recent Imax films "Coral Reef Adventure" and "Volcanoes of the Deep Sea," is a glorious example of educational entertainment at its best.
Forget haunted houses and the mountains of the moon: There's no better environment to show off the wonder of the immersive IMAX 3-D experience than the deep blue sea.

Aug 30, 2013Good!!! I actually love documentaries and the fact that Deep Sea was in 3D made it one of the best documentaries ever! If you have not seen it yet, in that case you don't know how precious is the sea. So, don't pollute it!!… Full Review »
EricS.Jul 13, 2006Excellent. Felt like I was in the Reef. Saw this with Sharks 3D. And this movie was much better. It was a bit short, but buy the double feature ticket when you go.… Full Review »
MarkH.Apr 30, 2006Fantastic footage. Really good use of 3D. Producers concentrated on the more bizarre, unusual kinds of undersea life rather than on ordinary fish, which made it really interesting. My only "complaint" is that it was too short. It was so engaging that I wanted it to last longer.… Full Review »
