Evidentially my first review did not pass yelp inspection. The course was in good shape. The views were great. The course personnel are rude. We had to wait at every tee box. Slow course.

- Media's quiet gemProgressiveEraVIPDined on 11/20/2014Lotus is a small BYOB in Media that provides fresh, local, creative meals garnished with fresh herbs, fancy teas, and a quiet setting for a pleasant lunch or dinner. Portions are not large, and a meal will not be inexpensive. Most appetizers are too small to split, although the cheese plate and focaccia are. The menu is not large, but there are excellent fish and meat dishes and at least one vegetarian main dish. I have been to Lotus at least half a dozen times, and I think the restaurant has only gotten better over time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent Food and ServiceJBGrizzVIPDined on 11/15/2014We made reservations during the Jazz festival in Media. Even with the added volume, the service was superb and the food outstanding. Between the two of us, we had 6 different dishes (2 appetizers, 2 main courses, 2 desserts) and every one was fantastic. It is a little on the expensive side, but it is BYOB, so that definitely helps. We will definitely be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AljamVIPDined on 11/14/2014I make it a point to eat here when I am in the Media area.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Root Veggies a Little Too FreshbertieDined on 11/7/2014I had the excellent trout but was not happy with the root vegetables that came with the trout as they were really not cooked very much and may even have been characterized as uncooked. Did complain since the menu stated the accompaniment with the trout was potato salad. Wait staff explained the chef had changed the side just days before but the change was not reflected on the menu. A mushroom risotto replaced the root vegetables but unfortunately that dish was so salty I couldn't eat that either. On the bright side was the cheese plate and the excellent panna cotta dessert.
- WOW!OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 11/7/2014A delight for the palette - so imaginative and out of the box!Special Features:
- Some gems hereOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 11/1/2014The menu was very creative with many fish and vegetable choices. Plenty for the meat eaters also. A pork belly appetizer was on the menu the night we were there. The chef definitely tries to keep the menu farm to table. I loved my trout dish and my husband's striped bass was good but on the small side. I had at least 6 oz of fish while his was more like 4 oz. That was the only disappointing part of the meal. Some may find the prices a little high for Media but the preparation was fresh and interesting so probably worth the price. I would try this restaurant again. Way above average for the area.Special Features:
- yummy yummy yummypetzyDined on 10/18/2014We really enjoyed it. Cant wait to go back. Great food,nice ambience, service was great and not noisyI would recommend this to a friend.
- Good healthy fresh foodBlueleoDined on 10/18/2014We enjoyed our meal but prices are a bit high for the funky laid back atmosphere. My first course was a delicious hummus that was beautifully presented. My husband had a good ceasar salad. My main course was branzino fish not filleted. I think for the price they should have filleted it. I was spitting out little bones. The fish was very good, charred and on a bed of fennel but it would have been perfect if they filleted table side. My husband's dish was fabulous. He had a moist pork chop with brussel sprouts, very autumnal. The dining room is pretty but the chairs are big and clunky not too comfortable. Overall it was a lovely meal but the prices are a little high for a casual spot.Special Features:
- Standout on State Street!Rob009Dined on 9/13/2014Great Restaurant, Great Menu! Food was excellent, fresh and delicious! Very creative and great balance of flavors. Great tea selections also. If you are not tea drinker, you still should try one. This is real tea, not some bag of leaves. The atmosphere is a little loud, because everyone is talking and having a great time. Loved the music, classical guitar and clarinet. Added a nice tone. Service was great, friendly. On a street where there are a lot of places to dine, this stands out as one of the best. Already recommended it to my friends!Special Features:

Wonderful table service! Entertainment by my favorite chanteuse, Andrea Carlson! Just doesn't get any better! Courtney, thank you for another wonderful evening!Special Features:
- Great tea selectionluv2dineVIPDined on 8/30/2014But overpriced food. Would NOT accept our opentable rewards check, and I wouldn't have booked a random opentable restaurant that I wouldn't have otherwise tried, if I had known. First time trying to use one and I'll have to call ahead next time. Though they shouldn't be on opentable if they want the easy reservations open to the world but not allow the rewards. Chicken dish was interesting but $28, flatbread was too small to share for a $12 appetizer. If the prices were on online menu they would have even fewer customers. Empty on sat night.
- hippymasterVIPDined on 8/30/2014All organic food with many local growers; so healthy eating with a sustainability advantageSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- You wouldn't know it was healthyJimODined on 8/28/2014Farm to table that is delicious. I had the lamb special and the meat just fell off the bone moist and delicious. The ambiance and service is great. I'd go there again in a minute if I lived in the area.Special Features:
- Nice place for a "Ladies Lunch"GeorgisDined on 8/22/2014My friend took me for lunch and it was nice. Quiet and elegantly decorated. A good place to linger and chat. Food was somewhat pricey and portions not large. But all locally sourced and tasty. We were the only ones in the restaurant. I just think it does not cater to the "usual" Media lunch crowd. I had the grilled cheese with cheddar, goat, chicken confit and pancetta. Was very good. Large assortment of teas both hot and iced.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dining under the StarsDisappointingDined on 8/20/2014Made a reservation on a special Wednesday "Dining Under the Stars" in Media. We went with another couple. We arrived 15 minutes prior to our reservation. We were not allowed to be seated until everyone in the party was present. Almost all of the tables were open, it wouldn't have taken away from anyone. We went across the street and had a drink. We started with the Cheese Board. $14 for a 1/4 tsp mustard, a used lemon slice, thin slice of goat cheese, a hard cheese, and also a soft yellow cheese. It was served with 4 slices of fresh cut french bread. VERY WEAK!! Really? Where's the crustini, the honeycomb, the slice of fruit, the contrast in cheeses. DON'T waste your money on the cheese board.Special Features:
- Imaginative and DeliciousCarapacerDined on 8/14/2014Always a treat to see what's cookin' at Lotus, and we are never disappointed in local food well prepared and beautifully served.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious Saturday LunchSeriousAboutDessertVIPDined on 8/9/2014We had a nice lunch here but were the only diners on a summer Saturday. Our sandwiches were creative and well made. We had pots of loose leaf teas also, although I would prefer a system where the leaves could be withdrawn to prevent over steeping. Desserts were good too, I really enjoyed a strawberry cantaloupe sorbet with berries. The peach was rock hard and still had a sticker! Waiter brought the check while we were still eating dessert and took the dessert order while we were still eating lunch, which is a strange thing especially when there are no other customers. Despite the hiccups, this is the kind of place I hope stays in business a long time. I would return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 245 reviews are from the Lotus Farm to Table reviews archive.
- Totally let downMediaMaven14Dined on 7/30/2014Huge fan of Lotus Farm to Table, but disappointed with food service! Table for 4 was ready when we arrived at 7:30. Ordered appetizers and entrees. Given the fact that it was a busy night, there was understandably a long wait, but what we put up with was inexcusable. Only two of the four appetizers arrived, the soup arrived 40 minutes later. Still no entrees at 9:15. Diners with 8pm reservations already ate and paid for dinner, and we only had 3 of 4 appetizers. It was 10pm by the time we ate were ready leave, the staff was already clearing tables. The waitress apologized for losing the order slip, asked us what we ordered so she could print a new bill! We waited 2hrs for food, and no one bothered to do anything to fix the problem.Special Features:
- Eating well at Lotus Farm to Table!OpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 7/30/2014My first experience at Lotus Farm to Table was on a Wednesday summer's eve in Media - Dining Under the Stars for us! The staff at Lotus were all great and really worked well within the hustle & bustle of hundreds seated in the streets. State Street was hopping-each block had its own live entertainment. My friend & I ordered small plates-some to share, and others that we coveted for ourselves. The green tomato gazpacho was outrageously good, & beautiful to behold! I had a delicious BLT, with pork belly playing the role typically covered by bacon. I plan to join Lotus Farm to Table again to sample the next inventive, imaginative, and transformed locally sourced produce, cheeses, fish, and meats after the delectable offerings last night.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Reliable, interesting food in MediaMediaDinerVIPDined on 7/30/2014We love Lotus for the interesting takes on common dishes, the funky décor, and extensive tea menu. They do a great job on Wednesday Dining Under the Stars nights too.Special Features:
- Always strivingFormerFoodieGonePaleoDined on 7/26/2014The food is good. We frequent this restaurant as they focus on organic products but some of the combinations seem like they're trying too hard to be creative and aren't always successful. Service is good and they work hard to accommodate food restrictions.Special Features:
- Fabulous Farm-to-Table Find!mermax127VIPDined on 6/7/2014LOVE the food here, seems to get better & better every time I come! Went out for my birthday with my Mom. There happen to be live music that was FABULOUS! Our meals were outstanding, server was very professional & lovely. We had the flatbread: DELICIOUS! Brussels Sprout salad: AMAZINGt & we both had the trout with bets.... DELISH! LOVE the food here, the ambiance, everything... the music was a nice little surprise! Can't wait to go back!!!!!Special Features:
- Very disappointed on a Weds. nightMediaDinerVIPDined on 6/4/2014We know that Wednesday nights are crowded in Media, but the excessive waits we had for EVERYTHING (from being greeted, to water pouring, to each course serving) were really frustrating. And the chairs provided outside are incredibly uncomfortable! The food was OK, but what we'll really think about before ever going back is the terrible service and discomfort of sitting there for 2+hours.
- Farm to TableOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/29/2014Great organic food -- delicious and good for you. How can you beat that? We enjoyed the Spring Menu for a birthday celebration. Both the Osso Bucco and the Lamb were delicious, as were the salads and dessert. The wait staff thoughtfully added a birthday candle, which was fun! Highly recommended.Special Features:
- Better Than EverLarryBDined on 5/28/2014Lotus Farm to Table has always had great food. Tonight Chef Ryan Sulikowski outdid himself! First, the chef's selection-artisan pasteurized cheese board was spectacular. My wife selected the Pennsylvania Trout which was, as usual, outstanding. I ordered tonight's special, Wild Boar Belly. Cannot recall enjoying a new entree more - anywhere. The richly flavored meat was done to fork fall apart perfection. Mushrooms in a dark, delicious sauce surrounded the Wild Boar Belly and were accented by Breakfast Radishes. Always get a dessert here, it is that good. Beautiful music was provided by the fantastic chanteuse, Andrea Carlson. Thank you, Courtney Rozsas for a wonderful evening!Special Features:
- Great Food & SericeOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 5/17/2014My wife and I both ordered fish (trout and branzino) and they were prepared preferctly. We enjoy this restaurant as the portion sizes are perfect, the service is attentive and knowledgable and the food is top shelf. The menu is limited so we try to go once each season as the menu rotates.Special Features:

- TastyDingoDined on 4/18/2014We've eaten here several times and found it to be very good. The menu is very limited especially for vegetarians. There are a number of appetizer offerings for vegetarians but only one entre. The tofu dinner was very good. They corn the tofu which adds a special flavor and texture to it. This time it was prepared with beets and broccoli rabe. It was a generous portion. Our appetizers were also good we had the cheese board and flat breadSpecial Features:
- Great for date night.drexelhilldinerDined on 4/5/2014My husband and I have been to this restaurant three times, and have had a wonderful experience each time. It's a great place to go for date night or with another couple for an interesting meal at decent prices. We love that it's farm to table. We will definitely be back again and would certainly recommend to others.Special Features:
- Dinner Fresh but just OKStanleyeatsDined on 3/22/2014Have walked past this place before but thought it was Indian based on the tables (maybe they took over for an Indian restaurant). 1st course was really good with a Fingerling and Sweet Potato Salad with Roasted Beets, Pistachios and Dates. All the flavors worked really well together. At this point I was excited to see what was to come. Disappointment was to follow, I had the trout. it was fine but could have been so much better. Trout skin was not crispy and the vegetables were lacking. The flavors of the veggies didn't come together and were also served cold Probably on purpose, but since it is not the middle of summer should have been sauteed.

- Delicious and healthy foodLoyaldinerVIPDined on 3/20/2014Lotus is a well decorated restaurant with fresh food from the area. The menu changes often but every single dish is delicious. The portions are just right. Not too big or small. We had the Brussels sprouts as an appetizer, the grilled salmon and the lamb osso bucco. All were perfectly cooked and delicious. The deserts were to die for! Would definitely recommend to anyone.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Restaurant Week at the Lotusdiningdiva1Dined on 3/9/2014Dined at the Lotus on Sunday for the first time. $30 3-course meal is a foodie's bargain......good quality with an appropriate portion size. My complaint is that tables are too close together. We had difficulty moving the extremely heavy chairs in very close quarters..felt very confined. Johnny Never played blues guitar which was a nice touch but the noise level was probably 85 decibals..too loud for a normal conversation. Also, a daily prix fix menu would be a nice touch to make this a go-to restaurant instead of a special occasion eatery. The average 3 course meal with coffee/tea would be close to $60 per person with tax and tip..Special Features:

The food is delicious and I love the staff. He always suggests something new for me to try and he never steers me wrong! Definitely a good place to grab a great affordable meal.
The place is nothing much to look at, and honestly, if I could close my eyes while eating, I would do it sometimes to enjoy the food more. That being said, this place really knows their ramen. Pictured are the chicken katsu and ox tail versions. Absolutely delicious.

When Helio Castroneves wins a race at Texas Motor Speedway, he makes it fun to watch.He climbs the fence, gives out massive hugs, yells into microphones and invites everybody to join him on the podium for some gun-shootin'.Now to get some of that fun into watching the race.Castroneves' 4.7-second victory Saturday night in the Firestone 550 took the air out of the national prime-time telecast, touted by IndyCar and TMS as a chance for the country to catch one of the tight finishes the series and track are known for producing.Two of the eight closest finishes in series history have come in Fort Worth — Sam Hornish Jr.'s .0096-second victory over Castroneves in September 2002 and Jeff Ward's .0111-second victory over Al Unser Jr. in June 2002.But three of the last five IndyCar Series races at TMS have been decided by more than a second. Last year, the margin was 3.9 seconds.So while Saturday night was a showcase for Castroneves, now a four-time winner at TMS, runner-up Ryan Hunter-Reay and third-place finisher Tony Kanaan thought about how to make the racing tighter.They have ideas. But it won't be easy to find exactly the right one for TMS and the other high-speed ovals on the series.The right idea requires a balance between how quickly everyone wants the tires to "fall off," or wear out, and how much speed to put in the cars.It is all related.The more the tires fall off, the more often pit strategy and fuel come into play. The less the tires fall off, the faster the cars go.The faster the cars go, the more "downforce," or grip, they require. More grip means more of a chance to go "flat-out," or at maximum speed. But the more drivers are going flat-out, the more they race side-by-side, creating the pack racing they hate and yet the sense of excitement fans want."It's so difficult to get the package exactly right with the downforce and the degradation of the tires, and as a series we're working toward that," Hunter-Reay said.It was a crash in a pack of cars that resulted in the death of Dan Wheldon on the Las Vegas oval two years ago. It had drivers rethinking the place of ovals in the series.But they do not want to leave TMS. The track and the series know they benefit from each other."Firestone could easily make a tire that we could run around here," Hunter-Reay said postrace."But we don't want that," said Kanaan, sitting beside him, presenting the counterpoint."It needs to be the right combination," Hunter-Reay said."You need to remember. We do not want a pack race," Kanaan said. "That is what we don't want to have — going overboard a little bit."TMS's close finishes came when pack racing was more common in IndyCar. But rule changes, new body styles and the changing attitudes of the drivers have changed the kind of finishes TMS is used to producing.The close finishes can certainly return. But only if IndyCar, the track and the drivers pin down a new competitive balance that returns the old style of racing and yet keeps it safe."I think we've nailed it perfectly in the past," Hunter-Reay said. "We'll get it right, for sure."

As far as I'm aware OS X still hasn't brought iSCSI support to the table, so unfortunately you will be out of luck unless you can find a third party alternative. I know that drobo provide an iSCSI application to allow macs to support their own devices. Whether this can be gotten from elsewhere and whether it supports other devices I don't know.
As far as I'm aware the process is pretty similar in Lion to the other versions. Saying that though I haven't done it yet myself. Guides for this sort of stuff more than likely won't have been written yet since most places running AD-OD integration wouldn't have upgraded to lion yet as it's very limited compared to 10.6's offering in services.
I have a Lion server currently sitting on my desk. I would be more than happy to go through the process and document how I do it along the way. I need to look at it myself anyway for the near future.
But I would also address the first issue I pointed out if this is a problem.

Child deaths soar in Kiribati due to lack of water
Kiribati, which consists of 32 coral atolls, has a child mortality rate more than twice the average for the East Asia/Pacific region.
Thu, Jul 26, 2012 at 04:47 AM

Poor hygiene and sanitation stemming from a lack of water is contributing to soaring child mortality rates in the Pacific island nation of Kiribati, a UN envoy said Thursday.
UN special rapporteur on the right to water and sanitation Catarina de Albuquerque said urgent action was needed to address water shortages among the country's 100,000 population.
"I was shocked by the child mortality rate in Kiribati, which is the highest in the Pacific," she said in a statement issued during a three-day trip to inspect the situation first-hand.
"If the country seriously wants to reduce preventable deaths of children, sanitation and hygiene are two vital issues to be addressed as a matter of urgency," she said.
Kiribati, which consists of 32 coral atolls spread over 1.35 million square miles of ocean, has a child mortality rate more than twice the average for the East Asia/Pacific region, World Bank data shows.
De Albuquerque said a lack of proper sanitation facilities meant much of the population used the sea and bushes to go to the toilet, which, combined with a lack of hand-washing habits, led to the spread of disease among children.
"The current situation of water supply is unsustainable," she said, describing access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation as basic human rights.
She said the Kiribati government needed to create a specialized department to deal with the issue and implement programmes to do things such as boosting the capacity to harvest rainwater and producing affordable water from desalination plants.
De Albuquerque also noted that the low-lying nation was struggling to deal with climate change and said rising sea levels had contaminated some sources of ground water.
She said the international community, particularly those countries most responsible for climate change, had an obligation to help Kiribati address its water issues.

Jammal Brown, Oshiomogho Atogwe Listed As Questionable To Play Against Miami
By ZAC BOYER | firstname.lastname@example.com | @ZacBoyer
ASHBURN – Though Washington Redskins right tackle Jammal Brown is still batting a groin injury sustained in the first half of Sunday's 19-11 loss to San Francisco, he returned to practice in a very limited role Friday, head coach Mike Shanahan said.
Still, Brown is questionable to play at Miami on Sunday, and Shanahan admitted it's unlikely he'll be on the field.
"We'll see how it is before the game," Shanahan said.
The Redskins will also have to judge the health of free safety Oshiomogho Atogwe, who has been limited by a sprained knee and a toe injury. He, like Brown, was limited in practice Friday and is questionable to play against the Dolphins.
Atogwe has missed two of the last three games, playing only against Buffalo in Toronto two weeks ago. He said Friday he was fine in the first half of that game, but his knee started to hurt shortly after halftime and the toe then started to bother him as well.
"It's definitely testing, because I have been injured quite a bit this year," Atogwe said. "But you've got to fight through it and continue to believe in the healing process and believe in yourself and just get it going."
Fellow safety LaRon Landry went through a whole practice Friday after being limited Thursday and sitting out all of Wednesday with pain in his troublesome left Achilles' tendon. The pain is not a concern to Landry, who is listed as probable and expected to play, but Atogwe said his teammate's uncertainty during the week put more pressure on him to try to be healthy enough to play.
"The fact that LaRon was a little sore this week puts a little bit more motivation on me to try to get back a little bit faster because you don't want to have both of us down," Atogwe said. "If we have less guys, that hurts the team, so it definitely motivates me more."
If Brown cannot play, Sean Locklear would continue to fill in for him as he did against the 49ers, while Reed Doughty would replace Atogwe. Three players will not be available at Miami – receivers Santana Moss (broken left hand) and Niles Paul (turf toe), as well as reserve inside linebacker Keyaron Fox, who has an infection in one of his knees and is receiving antibiotics to treat it.
Running back Tashard Choice (hamstring) is also listed as questionable, though he has been targeting this game as his debut since being claimed off waivers from Dallas last week.

Randall Alexander, breeder and shipper of Poland-China swine, Charleston; about ten years ago this gentleman, in company with S. M. Shepard, made his first start in the introduction and breeding of thorough-bred swine in Coles Co. After having experimented thoroughly with the various breeds of hogs, they became convinced that the Poland-China possessed all the requisites of size, docility, fertility, early maturity, aptitude for taking on flesh, and great constitutional vigor, necessary to render it pre-eminently the hog for the farmer. From a small beginning, the business has grown to its present proportions. Mr. Alexander is now one of the most prominent breeders in the State; his trade extends to every part of the country, to the Pacific Coast, Canada, the Southern States, etc.; his farm, near Charleston, possesses all the advantages of a perfect hog farm, such as pure running water, sheltered location, shade, range, etc. Mr. Alexander was born in Madison, Jefferson Co., Ind., Aug. 5, 1842; when about 10 years old, he removed with his parents to Tipton Co., Ind.; at 14, he left home, and going to Louisiana, Mo., engaged as a clerk in a dry goods store. In 1861, he went to Tuscola, Douglas Co., Ill., and clerked one year; he then, with Mr. Robert Beech, built the Beech House, the finest hotel on the Illinois Central Railroad, from Chicago to Cairo; after running the house one year he came in 1863 to Charleston, and continued clerking till 1865, when he engaged in business for himself, continuing as a member of different firms until about four years ago; he is at present a member of the Board of Aldermen in Charleston. He was married May 21, 1866, to Miss Nancy A. Compton, a daughter of Albert Compton, of Charleston, and has four children – Albert C., Edwin R., Rufus C. and Dora T.

For real this time! It's impossible to watch "The Guard" and not think of the magnificent black comedy "In Bruges," due to the pedigree of talent behind it. Produced by Martin McDonagh (the man behind "In Bruges"), "The Guard" finds his brother, John Michael McDonagh, making his debut as a writer/director. Drawing on influences as diverse as Sam Peckinpah and Nicolas Roeg, "In Bruges" struck a perfect balance of hilariously dark humor, intense drama and startling violence, so immediately trotting it out as a point of comparison for "The Guard" seems unfair. But given how similar the stories are, it's unfortunately inevitable. Brendan Gleeson, the co-star of "In Bruges," plays a mouthy Irish cop named Boyle, whose favorite extracurricular activities including wanton whoring and dropping acid. While investigating a nasty rash of killings in Ireland's Connemara Gaeltacht, he's paired up with Everett, a culture-shocked, by-the-book FBI agent played by Don Cheadle. Together, they find the murders to be related to a drug-running operation. This standard odd-couple buddy-cop premise seems formulaic on the surface, but it practically plays as a companion piece to "In Bruges," given the dynamic between Gleeson and Cheadle. It's like "In Bruges" on the right side of the law. What's disappointing is that John Michael McDonagh's film isn't as well realized as his brother's. Where "In Bruges" felt natural and seamless, "The Guard" feels calculated and overcooked in its humor and character dynamics. Half of the scenes in the film devolve into sarcasm-soaked, wisecracker quip-fests about semantics, going out of its way to highlight Everett's culture shock, as well as Boyle's disdain for outside meddling. "In Bruges" was indeed filled with clever dialogue, but it never felt as though Martin McDonagh was showing us just how clever he he could be. With "The Guard," it feels as though John Michael is showing off, rather than exercising any form of restraint, and it sabotages the movie's pace, as well as any depth the characters could have. His strings as a writer are readily apparent, and it does the film no favors. "The Guard" naturally has the deck stacked against it, standing in the shadow of a film as great as "In Bruges," but the criticisms applied here would be just as valid if it were completely unrelated to Martin's brilliant film. That's not to say that John Michael doesn't show great promise; it may sound as though I thoroughly dislike "The Guard," but certain elements of it were enjoyable. Like "In Bruges," it has a thematic hint of Peckinpah that is mostly absent from today's Hollywood movies, and there are plenty of scenes and exchanges that are memorable. I couldn't help but think of "Pat Garrett and Billy The Kid" during Boyle's escapade with prostitutes, and Cheadle turns in a an appropriately alienated performance when the movie's dialogue isn't going out of its way to let us know what a fish out of water he truly is. There is no doubt that "The Guard" is superior to a massive chunk of Hollywood's sour output in 2011, but that also kinda just highlights what a lousy year 2011 was for movies. Available on Blu-ray and DVD Other Noteworthy Releases Contagion: I missed Steven Soderbergh's "Traffic"-meets-"Outbreak" opus in theaters, but it was met with a fairly positive response. Soderbergh is a hit-or-miss filmmaker (mostly miss), but this one looks compelling. Available on Blu-ray/DVD combo, Blu-ray, DVD, and Amazon Instant I Am: Once upon a time, Tom Shadyac made big-budget comedies like "Bruce Almighty" and "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective."

Tom Shadyac's father, the late Richard Shadyac, helped co-found St. Jude Children's Hospital where I live in Memphis, Tennessee. Big Hollywood's Christian Toto interviewed Tom Shadyac for The Washington Times when the film was released theatrically last year. Available on DVD Don't Be Afraid of the Dark: As much as I adore the horror genre, I can't muster the energy to even care about this remake. This is likely due to my apathy towards the recent work of its producer, Guillermo Del Toro, whose name is all over it. Available on Blu-ray and DVD Shark Night: Another ho-hum horror remake.

To the core
Encouraging business students to take up the liberal arts
At freshman orientation, incoming students of Boston College's Carroll School of Management are often asked whether they would like to major or minor in a subject offered through the College of Arts and Sciences in addition to pursuing, as required, a subject area of management. Usually a preponderance of hands goes up, but once academic reality sets in fewer students (roughly 35 percent) avail themselves of this opportunity. One explanation is that there's too little room in the crowded business school curriculum for casting deeply into the liberal arts.
Now, the Carroll School is unveiling a revised core curriculum that will open up new possibilities for finance majors who take a liking to French, or any other management students who want to venture far into the arts and sciences. They will be able to opt out of one or two core requirements in the Carroll School if they declare a minor or major in A&S.
This is the first extensive restructuring of the school's core curriculum in more than 30 years, and the first students affected by the changes will be those who enter as freshmen in fall 2012—that is, the Class of 2016. A review of the modifications will be conducted after three years, during the 2015–16 academic year.
The idea for the overhaul began with discussions among Carroll School leaders about how undergraduate business education is best understood as "a blend of management training and liberal arts learning," as dean Andy Boynton puts it. They wondered how they could not only lessen the encumbrances to broader learning but also point their students in that general direction.
Boynton asked Richard Keeley, associate dean for undergraduates, and associate professor of finance Darren Kisgen to spearhead a curriculum review committee that recruited 10 others from among the faculty and met throughout the past academic year. The committee arrived at an approach that relies primarily on incentives for students to dig into an arts-and-sciences subject while still carving out a specialty or concentration in management. The initial revision entails no new courses at the Carroll School, although assistant dean for curriculum Ethan Sullivan expects to see courses added later "in the spirit of integration with the liberal arts." He cites the possibility of classes linking entrepreneurship with social justice.
As Boynton sees it, the time was ripe for a fresh inspection of the core, in part because the caliber of Carroll School students, as inferred from standardized test scores and other measures, has risen markedly in recent years. He also points out that many corporate leaders today are emphasizing the importance of creativity, critical thinking, and related traits that might thrive with exposure to the liberal arts.
"The world is different now than it was 30 years ago. The students are different. Business is different. And so we should be different, too," Boynton explains.
That view is gaining a measure of traction in higher education. This past June, the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching released a book-length study, Rethinking Undergraduate Business Education: Liberal Learning for the Profession, which finds that undergraduate business education is often too narrow, does little to help students make sense of the world and their place in it, and fails to challenge them to question assumptions and think creatively. "Business majors typically experience the liberal arts and sciences in ways that are weak or episodic," the authors write.
Kisgen, the Carroll School review committee's co-chair, said Boston College has increasingly been wary of cranking out "one-dimensional business students" and that the revamped core builds on a tradition of accenting professional education with liberal arts.
Devised largely in the late 1970s, Boston College's current management core includes 14 requirements ranging from business law to marketing and from finance to organizational behavior. Under the new core, Carroll School students with an A&S major will be entitled to forgo any two of those requirements, excluding three courses that will remain, in a sense, the core of the core. Those are Statistics, Financial Accounting, and Portico, a three-credit course for freshmen that focuses largely on ethical concerns.
According to scenarios presented in a review committee report, an accounting student with a philosophy major might bypass the core Marketing course and Computers in Management; a finance student with a mathematics major might leave aside Operations Management and Organizational Behavior; and an information systems student with an art history major could do the same with Finance and Managerial Accounting. Similarly, students who chose to minor in an A&S subject could opt out of one Carroll core requirement.
"Students already want to do this. What we've done is open up some space for them to go ahead," offering them encouragement to take on the added responsibilities of the A&S major or minor, says Kisgen.
In addition to these academic carrots, the Carroll School has also tossed in a few sticks. For instance, all Carroll School students will have to take four elective courses in A&S (one more than currently stipulated).
Although the faculty overwhelmingly voted for the plan this past May, there were at least a couple of professors who felt strongly that the school should not "tamper with the core" and consequently reduce the common body of knowledge, notes associate professor Stephanie Greene, a review committee member who teaches business law and directs the Carroll School Honors Program. Greene, however, joined the majority. If there's any dilution of the management core, she says, "it's a small concession for a greater purpose" of encouraging broader learning.
Core changes for Class of 2016
Triple concentrations are eliminated. Students can still carry the course load of three concentrations. They just won't receive the third badge.
Credit requirement to graduate goes up from 114 to 120. This is in line with Arts and Sciences and adds two more courses.
Elective A&S course requirement rises from three to four. In addition, AP credits can no longer be applied toward this total.
Incentives to major and minor in A&S. Students with an A&S major may opt out of two CSOM core courses; students with an A&S minor may opt out of one. Some CSOM courses (e.g., Statistics) are excluded from this equation.
New math requirement bucket. AP credits notwithstanding, all students must take at least one math course from a list that includes such offerings as Math for Management, Multivariate Calculus, and Econometric Methods.

Is the "Lethal Weapon" guy not so lethal anymore?
Or, are American moviegoers (shame on us!) more interested in big disasters and special effects than in Hollywood's rendition of the Revolutionary War?
These questions and others loom large in the wake of the Fourth of July box office returns, which saw the holiday weekend's big favorite, "The Patriot," washed away by "The Perfect Storm," the film that most observers thought would finish at No. 2.
How, for example, could Mel Gibson's stars-and-stripes action flick, tailor-made for an Independence Day release, make about half as much money as a film about foolhardy fishermen who sail right into the eye of a gigantic hurricane? (In case you hadn't heard, "The Perfect Storm" reaped $62.7 million over the five-day weekend, while "The Patriot" made $35.2 mil.)
How could that big marketing campaign, which saw Mel Gibson's rough-hewn face plastered onto every bus stop and billboard across the nation, not pack 'em in?
And how could a movie wherein a guy gets his head blown off by a cannon not blast away the competition, period?
"It's a bit more of a history book kind of thing, it's set in a period, and it has an R rating, so that may be a bit forbidding to the younger people," offers Jeff Blake, Columbia Pictures president of worldwide distribution, by way of explanation. (Columbia is the studio behind "The Patriot.")
"The contents of ["The Patriot"], at the end of the day, are a great selling point, particularly for adults who don't necessarily rush out to see a film the first weekend. I think our exit polls are excellent, so in the long run we do believe this film will be very successful. Nothing's coming up over the next few weeks to compete with it."
So, if we're understanding this correctly, "The Patriot" (cannonball money shot and all) is a movie for grown-ups, while "The Perfect Storm" is a flick for the whole family. But does that really explain the $25 million gulf between them?
On the surface, the two movies have much in common.
Both star a grizzled 40-ish macho hero with a 20-something macho sidekick (Gibson's Heath Ledger to George Clooney's Mark Wahlberg). Both movies find the hero fighting the good fight against insurmountable odds (Gibson takes on the Redcoats to avenge his family's slaughter; Clooney takes on mammoth waves to get his fish to market before they spoil).
The bottom line, however, might be that one is about the Revolutionary War and one is not.
"There's this curse of the Revolutionary War film. There's never been one that ignited the box office," says Paul Dergarabedian, president of Exhibitor Relations Co. "But it's not over for 'The Patriot.' It should have legs, if it gets the word of mouth. It's a marathoner, it's not a sprinter."

The economy – how prayer resuscitates
A Christian Science perspective on daily life.
ALL EYES ARE ON the US financial system. In one report on National Public Radio, "Is the economic sky falling?" Chris Arnold called this a "tipping point moment" and explained that credit – between banks and then individuals – is "like oxygen to the economy" (Sept. 30). Without this vital exchange, everyone is left gasping for air. Some on Wall Street have even said the US economy has undergone "a near-death experience."
Even as experts debate how to revive the economy – and see their way into the future – spiritual thinkers focus on a prayerful antidote. A starting point for prayer is to understand what gives life and what revives our understanding of it. Jesus was clear throughout his life that nothing material has the power to originate life; only God holds that power. God, as Life itself, would never create an opposite expression, death. Life is not dependent on physical structures for stability or endurance. Jesus proved the practicality of understanding this fact when he healed people, raised the dying to life, and ultimately proved the law of immortality with his own resurrection.
But death doesn't arise only in relation to the human body. It appears to take hold in the bodies we call governments, financial systems, businesses, households, churches. In defiance of what appears to be faltering, prayer breathes new life into these entities and serves as powerful proof that death is never the final answer. Life ever present, even when everything argues against it. Our job is to demand to see evidence of divine Life, not the frenzy of fear, shattered confidence, or confusion. Divine Life understood provides peace, conviction (not willfulness), and intelligent action. This is also true for those rightfully concerned about their livelihood – from keeping their jobs and feeding their families to planning their retirement. Divine Life cares for all, however high or low on the economic ladder.

LAS VEGAS — For Baby Boomers starved for pony cars of their carefree youth, here's a chance to turn back the clock.
Sure, you could buy a used 1965 Ford Mustang convertible. But now there's a way to own an almost new one. All you have to do is build it, part by part.
Ford Motor unveiled the first approved reproduction body shell for the original Mustang convertible here recently at the nation's biggest aftermarket parts trade show, commonly called SEMA. The body structure, hood, fenders and trunk lid are being produced by Dynacorn International through a licensing deal.
With those critical components in hand, making a nearly new car becomes merely a task of rounding up thousands of parts, from the gas cap to the grille emblem, for a Mustang and figuring out how they all fit together.
"The primary market is going to be the Baby Boom generation who may have owned one or always wanted to own one -- people who want the thrill back from when they were teenagers," says Dennis Mondrach, Ford's restoration licensing manager.
The first-generation Mustang, which went on sale in April 1964, has proved to be one of the most collected cars of all time. More than 1.2 million first-generation "1964½," 1965 and 1966 Mustangs were churned out by Ford before the first redesign for the 1967 model year. About 174,000 of the originals were convertibles.
The new body shell for the original Mustangs joins versions already available from Camarillo, Calif.-based Dynacorn for the 1967 convertible and 1967-68 and 1969-70 fastback Mustangs.
With the first-generation Mustang a prized classic, even the most rusted, dented bodies remain valuable. Rather than trying to put such a basket case back into running shape, restorers can take a shortcut with the new bodies, which feature modern welding and rust-proofing.
The body's not cheap, though, at about $15,000. Estimates vary on how much building a fully new Mustang would cost -- using remanufactured parts would be a lot cheaper than new parts, for example -- but experts say about $65,000 to $70,000 should do it. Virtually every part of an old Mustang still can be found for sale through stores or over the Internet.
Prospective builders also have to consider whether they want the car to exactly duplicate the original, or whether they want to update it with modern components such as a smoother, more powerful and cleaner engine from today.
Ford doesn't even license the old 260-cubic-inch or 289 cu.-in. V-8s, although plenty are available elsewhere. But its does have a 302-cubic-inch V-8 available for the Mustang, Mondrach says.
Boomers thinking of idling away their empty-nest hours tinkering on a do-it-yourself 'Stang should think twice, says the maker of the new Mustang bodies.
"We don't recommend they try to do it themselves in their garages," says Jim Christina, vice president of Dynacorn. "Go ahead and spend the money. Don't scrimp on what is most important, which is having someone who knows what they are doing put it together."
One professional builder, far from being a Boomer, is Race Safro, 18, of Albuquerque. At this year's SEMA, he showed off a 1967 Mustang he created from scratch with his dad, Jay.
He says he was able to track down all the original parts except four -- the ashtray cover, clutch and brake pedal covers and the glove compartment hatch. But he found suppliers for them at the show.
He doesn't work from plans, although he says they have a vintage 1967 Mustang parked nearby for reference. It's the 13th car he's built since age 13. It took 2,500 hours to craft the latest Mustang.
Safro hopes the car, modeled on the Mustang in the Nicholas Cage action movie Gone in 60 Seconds, will be a prototype for others who might want to order one from him. Price: About $200,000. "The market is mainly overseas," he says, including oil-rich nations in the Middle East.
Another builder using bodies from Dynacorn, George Huisman of Classic Design Concepts in Wixom, Mich., says the 1967 Mustang that was ordered from him for a past SEMA show took a team of seven about three months.
"When they are done it's a lot of fun, but it's a lot of work," Huisman says.

Though Bethenny Frankel has made her mark in the entertaining world of reality shows, her daughter will not be following in her footsteps if she has anything to do with it. In fact, she calls the idea "traumatizing."
So what will the new mom do if Brynn, who was born in May, grows up and tells her she wants to be on a reality show?
"I will kill somebody," Frankel said jokingly at the East Harlem Target store opening Tuesday. "Not her, but I will kill somebody."
Frankel did say it depended what kind of reality show it was, pondering the idea of a show like Bethenny Getting Married?, where she says you're supposed to be "really, totally honest and be yourself." But then she quickly dismissed the idea all together, hoping that it is something she will never have to worry about.
"By the time she grows up," said Frankel, "there won't be even be reality shows."

She walked down the aisle and said, "I do," but Bethenny Frankel's wedding didn't go off without any hitches – and it almost didn't happen with her wedding planner, Shawn Rabideau.
Recalling their showdown at the hair salon, Rabideau says the reality star was like a "Dementor from Harry Potter. You know, those specters that suck the life out of you?"
All joking aside, "I felt beat down," he tells PopEater. "For a fleeting, like, half a second, I thought about saying 'forget it.' But you know what? I wasn't giving up and I knew I could do this and I was going to work my butt off and do an amazing job."

Mike Basich on Filming Point Break 2
Our good friend and Flow Snowboarding team athlete Mike Basich was off in Italy last week filming for the major motion picture Point Break 2. Where the original film focused on adrenaline, highlighting surfing and skydiving… it would seen natural to include backcountry and big mountain riding in the sequel. We were able to track down Basich in Italy for a little Q & A about filming in Italy, along with a few other projects he's been involved with.
So you are in Italy now? What has the experience filming for the next Point Break film been like?
I must have watch the first Point Break ten times in the first months of release back then. It is pretty cool to be apart of something from the past into a new era. We are on our second shoot. The first one was a bit hectic, stressful and on the dangerous side of riding. Conditions where sketchy, lots of slides.
Where exactly have you been filming?
We have been in Italy. Courmeyaur. All heli stuff. Heli-ing for Hollywood is very different than Alaska heli or any ski heli service. Taking a ride in a heli by yourself is pretty common here. A very strange feeling for me.
We have to ask have you had a chance to meet Keanu Reeves with the filming?
Keanu Reeves isn't in the new film. It's a cool crew this time around. I can't announce who they are but, I have been working with them on this second shoot.
Anything else you would like to say about the current or past shoot, or film coming up?
I haven't done stunt work like this before. It is for sure different following certain things that needed to be done for the shot. Like riding with multiple people on a sketchy slope…
Now that winter is upon us… What are your travel plans over the next few months?
On a plane soon as this trip is over to gather together the last to do list for Area-241, and getting the chairlift dialed. Hoping it will be a good season. There is so much to happen still at Area-241 with the Flow crew.
Read and watch more about Area-241: Chairlift Chronicles
Anything you want to mention about your successful Kickstarter or portrait book?
I just finished up the details of my Self-Portrait book. It's called The Frozen Chase. Sending over a sneak peak of it. It will be available at www.Area-241.com end of January. It is a 130+ page photo book of my self-portraits over 15 years.
Anywhere else your followers and Flow family could see what you have been up to?
You can check out my segment in the new Absinthe Films movie Heavy Mental and the film The Little Things, both currently available on iTunes. When you see the film trailer for Point Break 2, look closely… You will probably see our brother Mike Basich, especially if it involves a mountain, snow and a killer snowboard line.

Liz Kristoferitsch On Living In The Mountains
"Living in the mountains is an outstanding enrichment to my life. I am thankful for the possibility to be out there and to be a part of it. In addition to taking part in international freeride competitions, I truly enjoy sharing my experiences and love for winter sports by guiding and coaching" – Liz Kristoferitsch
Flow Snowboarding had the chance to connect with Flow Snowboarding Team Athlete Liz Kristoferitsch and discovered where the foundation for her love of the mountains came from. You don't really have to look too far beyond where she grew up. Kristoferitsch grew up with a big family in Graz, Styria in Austria. Freeriding and mountaineering are the two main passions of life for Miss Kristoferitsch.
What was life growing up in Austria like?
"I truly love these intense moments filled with nature, freedom, emotions and the elements. There is a feeling about this place with its long term friendships that is hard to compare. I really enjoy my current life in the Dalaas village at Arlberg, and I also feel comfortable in Innsbruck where I have lived for almost ten years."
What do you consider to be your home mountain?
Since I´ve been living at Arlberg for so many years, it is the place that I know best. I love to ride here.
What is your current snowboard set up? Boots, Board, Bindings? Do you switch it up for park and powder?
My freeride setup consists of Flow's Hylite Focus boots, NX2-AT bindings and Rad Air Tanker 162 Board. I rarely switch and stick to my favorite set up.
Do you listen to music when you snowboard?
Sometimes I enjoy the sounds of the snow, sometimes I do listen to music. I kind of like to have one ear plug playing music. When it´s music it is either rock, punk, or very relaxing tones.
Did you start skiing first or has it always been snowboarding?
It is a family tradition- as a child at the age of three you are put on skis. In 1992 I was allowed to make my own choice and bought a snowboard, a decision that influenced my life a whole lot.
Where was the first place you went snowboarding? How old were you?
At the age of 14 at Niederalpl, a small ski area in Styria. My friends and I all had boards but no clue about how to ride. It was quite a task but at the end of the day I had managed riding the t-bar and doing some turns. That made me really proud. For the next week every single muscle ached, it was so worth it.
How was the winter in Austria this past winter?
Last season there was little amount of snowfall throughout the whole winter. Knowing where to go in the area was necessary to get some good turns. Still, I had some very good days in Austria riding powder. Only two hours south the amount of snow was tripled, so it was a good idea to go there some days.
For somebody planning their first snowboarding trip to Austria, what resorts should they definitely check out?
Arlberg, Austria and Maloja, Switzerland
What are some of your favorite apres ski activities?
Hot springs are fantastic.
Where is your favorite place to travel, not related to snowboarding?
I love quiet places near the sea. I've discovered Asia has such a great beach life.
What do you do during the summer months, in the off season? Do you chase the snow or take a break?
My winter starts in November and lasts until May of June. In between I take a break for relaxing and summer activities like mountain biking and hiking. Some days I go up the mountain for blackberries and I can take time to visit my family, which is hardly possible during the winter season.
You are a seasoned veteran to competing in freeride contests. Do you still nervous during contests?
I used to be very nervous, could hardly eat a bite before my run. During the years I have developed routines on contest days that help me to concentrate better and be less nervous. Anyway, with the first turn any nervousness is gone and I enjoy the ride.
The competition podium are a familiar home for you. How much does placing in competitions matter to you?
Standing on the podium is always special and a great honor for me. Every year the field becomes stronger. The challenges continue to get bigger in freeriding. Standing on the podium after a competition feels good. That experience is worth a lot in the world of freeride competitions.
You took a trip to Mongolia last year. Tell us a little about your trip.
In May 2013, I was part of an expedition to the Tavan Bogd mountain range in Mongolia. Hiking and skiing in this remote area where Mongolia boarders China and Russia turned out to be an amazing experience. Read more about Kristoferitsch's Mongolia Trip: lizkristoferitsch.com/freeskiingmongolia/story.html
What kind of activities and hobbies do you have other than snowboarding?
For a change I love skiing as well as mountain biking and hiking. When I am home I enjoy cooking, reading a good book and a glass of good wine.
Any words or thoughts you would like to say to the Flow Snowboarding customers and support?
Thank you for your amazing spirit!
Have you ridden in Austria yet? The Alps are home to some of the world's greatest snowboarders and skiers. Where in the Alps have you been or like to go? Flow wants to know. Connect with us at Flow Snowboarding via Social Media and hashtag #FlowSnowboarding.
