Yeah Plummer is the drummer. And Wincing the Night Away is awesome, shhh! I do have some issue with the whole band member thing though... Anyways.
Yes they are still around and the shows are awesome costumes, evil space monsters, and all. The christmas time shows are especially great with all the extra stuff they bring out and the santa costumes. I had always heard they were banned from playing the Disney House of Blues though since they made fun of Mickey Mouse and disney execs one time.

As I sit here writing this blog post I have to go back and change every fifth unintentionally misspelled word as my hiccups are throwing off my typing. Ever since my surgery last week I have had the absolute worst hiccups. My doctors seem to be brushing it aside as a common symptom but, to be honest, they are not only uncomfortable, they can hurt sometimes.
My doctors have me on Chlorpromazine but I definitely feel different. For one, I can guarantee I have lost weight. I am not sure if that is because of the surgery or because of all the different medications or, maybe, it is stress related. I have found out recently that Chlorpromazine can actually lower your testosterone. That is pretty scary. I brought this up in my last visit and my doctor, again, just brushed it off saying that lowered testosterone is only a mild side-effect and that once I am off the medication my hormones will balance out again. Due to this lowered testosterone, I read about some even stranger side-effects: shrinking testicals and even hair loss…
Since the side-effects seem to outweigh all of the good this medication is supposed to do, I decided to do a bit of research of home remedies of how to get rid of hiccups. I was a bit taken aback at how many I found. One list had hundreds and hundreds of remedies. After pouring through what seemed like thousands of crazy, weird, strange hiccup cures, I came across one that stood out… A lollipop.
The full name of the product is, "Hiccupops: Get Rid of Hiccups Fast" which is a pretty big claim. I looked at their site and was pretty impressed. It turns out that the girl who invented the product was going through exactly what I am currently. She was 13 years old and could not get rid of her chronic hiccups. After searching the internet and being at a total loss, she decided to create her own remedy – Hiccupops! I know it may sound crazy but from what I can tell she seems to have a great product. I purchased a few and cannot wait for them to arrive to finally get rid of these darn hiccups.
Check them out at hiccupops.com.

1 Twilight great....every book that followed - poor efforttmadhatter | 17/09/2008 | See all tmadhatter's reviews (24)Whilst I will probably get a severe backlash for this review, the truth needs to be told!Twilight was a pretty good book, if a tad gushy in places (even my GF agrees, so its not just me being male and getting irritated by the romance stuff!) The books that followed were not as good but had some redeming qualities when they picked up now and again but nothing can save this book!The series is too long - the charactors are just not that interesting to sustain this over long borefest. I ended up bored of the constant mood changes of Edward (happy/angry/sad/happy again in the space of a page. Bella is nothing but a selfish looks obsessed teenager (seriously, how many more times can the writer use the phrase 'his marble...god like...angel ....blah blah blah...face/skin' etc?! Buy a Thesaurus love and stop repeating yourself.Then of course there is Bella's relationship with Jacob. The constant 'battle' of whether she loves him as a friend or more is more fitting for the classroom than a book. its just tedius not to mention boring. Then of course there is Edward and Jacobs bantering (yes i get the whole werewolf/vampire hatred thing BUT again its just annoying as all the writer seems occupied with is to keep going around in circles with unoriginal material)Then there is the whole idea that EVERYONE fancies Bella (right from the first book the writer touches on this subject). If I knew someone like Bella, as soon as I found out she was this self centred, self obsessed bore, I would run a mile. Seriously,the girl needs theropy.Meyer seriously needs to stop thinking like a pre-teen and give her readers more credit. The whole 'its not you, its me, its my fault' Bella is more fitting for an episode of Gossip Girl.This book is over long and just boring beyond belief and I confess I skipped some pages with frustration. I dont want to spoil any of the plot for those who still want to read it but i cant stress this enough when I say DON'T BUY THIS BOOK! Get from your local library and don't waste your money.I'm a writer and I am shocked that such american dribble is allowed to even be considered, let alone published.Buy Twilight and enjoy it. Go and see the film in December if you like But avoid this book at all costs.
1 Well that was painful..Ineedanewcar | 09/09/2008 | See all Ineedanewcar's reviews (1)I've never been a big fan of the books. I just read them when I needed an easy read. These are the kind of books where I sit and wonder WHY I bothered reading them, and can never come up with a good answer. Maybe I thought it would pick up and get better? I'm a big fan of vampires, just not Meyer's. The last book was most painful to read as it was way too long. If she was a better writer, with better ideas, I could have survived, but as superficial as she is it doesn't take long before you're bored and desperate for a better flow in words and in story.The book starts with the 'heroine' Bella, an 18-year-old girl who's engaged with a vampire. Two seconds into the book and you're left with a feeling of annoyance toward the main character. She's extremely self centered, feeling sorry for herself for having an expensive car that hasn't even been released yet! Wow. I want to shoot her. That's like a big flaw, having a complete ditz as the main character. I thought she was annoying in the other books, but this one is even worse. Her amazing, god-like, sparkling, pale vampire boyfriend Edward isn't much better. He, too, is more annoying in this book than in the others. He can jump from being happy one moment, to being angry the next, for no reason. I wouldn't even date him, if I knew someone like him. Which means that little Bella must like him only for his looks, because there's not much else to him. Good thing he's so amazingly perfect, and sculpted like an archangel from heaven! And EVERYTHING must fall in place for at all times. There's no substance whatsoever.The book is also sickening in so many ways. I'm not going to spoil anything. You'll know what I mean once you read it. Bella is one sick sex-crazed teen who need to go and see a shrink. Fast.The whole book borders on laziness, as the ideas, the story lines and the ending all completely shocks me. I would never, ever, let anyone publish this kind of book if I was a publisher. It must be the money, nothing else. It sickens me.In short words, read something worth the money. I regret spending money on it.
2 Dissapointing!!xLouisePortmanx | 11/08/2008 | See all xLouisePortmanx's reviews (5)Considering how much i loved the first 3 books, i hate having to write this but o well. The book was awful!!! So, so bad.! It drags on far too long and by half way i was basically begging for it to finish! she should of stopped at eclipse!
5 excellent.....swannie | 12/04/2010 | See all swannie's reviews (120)i love this book.it was good to see things from bellas side,but also you see things from jakes point of view.also how angry jake is in beginin of book as he loves bella soo much,but things change..not wanting to give any details away it is a must read.really enjoyed this book...i was sad when i finished.i have read all of the twilight books 4 times.i have pre ordered bree tanner book out in june..really love the whole saga.great writing from stephenie meyer.this book is not just for teenagers as i am in my thirtys.it will be good to see how they make this book into a film..a truly good read....
5 The best of the quadrilogy!Diddywho | 18/02/2009 | See all Diddywho's reviews (6)Desperate to find out the answers to this series, I read all four books within a week, the last two solidly over a weekend.I fell in love with all of the books but this by far is the best. Filled with desperately needed epiphanies and a substantial amount more action that the previous three combined, I was kept on the edge of my seat, unable to put the book down. The characters deepen, the plot explains what has come before and keeps you wanting more.Deeply sad that this was the last time I would get to read of the adventures of Bella, Jacob and the Cullen's, I would urge anyone who has started the quadrilogy to read on and get to the finale - an amazing story to make you jealous not to be living in the world where myths and fairy tales come alive.

Hi Amy! I've followed your blog for years! And you've inspired me to start my own quilting blog. I'm sponsoring a contest there, and I'd be honored if you would keep this link in your comments section: http://sweetapplequilts.blogspot.com/2012/02/vote-for-leslie.html
I'm trying to help my friend win the American Family Go Get Your Dream contest. Thank you!
Hello Amy! Thank you for the warm welcome. I discovered your blog late Friday night...sometimes my only "alone blogging time" and have instantly fallen in love!!! I am totally new to quilting. Long time lover and purchaser of quilts, but until recently had never tried the art of quilting myself. At the coaxing of some friends and neighbors and a super sweet "Intro to Quilting" Valentine's Day gift CLASS from my hubby, I recently completed my first BLOCK! Yup, I've got a lot to learn, but your blog is amazing! Even my 7-year old is hooked...or should I say stitched! ;)
Looking forward to learning from you and following your artistic quilting journeys!
Thank you so much for your comments - they make my day! I try to respond to as many as my 'mommy' time allows, but life sometimes gets in the way. Please know how much I appreciate each of them.
I apologize for the current comment settings that require a registered user account. They are the only way that I don't get tons of gross spam. I'm hoping Blogger will make a way where people who are not registered users, but would like to leave a comment can do so. Please, Blogger! In the mean time, thanks for your patience.
I also love to respond to questions. If you are a no-reply blogger, please leave an email address so I can get back to you. Or you can email me directly: amy @ diaryofaquilter.com. Thanks!

Faith is powerful enough to immunize people against all appeals to pity, to forgiveness, to decent human feelings. It even immunizes them against fear, if they honestly believe that a martyr's death will send them straight to heaven.
I'll get straight to the point. My wife is Agnostic, I'm Atheist and we never argue, and I don't intend to argue with her or the side of her family that are Jehovah Witness. She used to be a JW, as did her brother and mother, until something just 'clicked' and they wanted begin celebrating birthdays, rational discussion and scientific discovery.
Some of the family remain JW. Some of them have cut all ties to the 'nonbelievers' and this brings me to my opening sentence.
Now folks, FAMILY is a big thing, even 'down under' where I'm from. What I don't understand is how can they do that their own blood - on faith, on something they have no guarantee over? If it turns out they are wrong (and hey, they failed to predict Armageddon over ten times 1875, 1914, 1915, 1918, 1920, 1925, 1941, and 1975 etc) then do they care/fathom what this looks like to the rest of the world?
Just as Scientologists cut out none 'clear' members, so have have the JW.
But then, there is one or two who do talk to us - how? Are they following the same rules? Do they have double standards I'm unaware of?
It's a silly, silly thing.
Thoughts? Opinions welcome, thats why I'm here... esp if any JW can offer their two bobs.

In a nod to the profession's collaborative nature, he asked that his current and former staff members stand and be recognized. A hearty round of applause ensued. The gesture also drew attention to everything the Pritzker committee hasn't said about the case of architect Denise Scott Brown.
The day before the ceremony, The Boston Globe published an editorial calling for the Pritzker committee to belatedly recognize the work of Scott Brown, FAIA, who was snubbed in 1991, when the $100,000 prize was awarded solely to her husband and long-time design partner, Robert Venturi, FAIA. "In a field where talented women's contributions have long been overlooked," stated the Globe, "this snub continues to cut deep 22 years later and should be rectified."
Ito signs programs for guests at the Pritzker dinner.
This follows a piece, published May 24, by architecture critic Sarah Williams Goldhagen in The New Republic, which also calls for Scott Brown to be retroactively honored. "Venturi was awarded what's come to be known as architecture's Nobel Prize for work he did not do, could not have done, and would never have conceived without Scott Brown," she wrote. "So, if the Pritzker Foundation is going to stand behind its having celebrated this kind of work, then for god's sake, give the prize to what is literally in this case the firm's better half."
Whether and how the Pritzker committee will address the controversy remains to be seen. In late March, executive director Martha Thorne told ARCHITECT that the matter would be referred to the jury at its next meeting. That meeting—albeit an informal one—occurred this week, when the jury gathered in Boston for the ceremony in honor of Ito. Yet no announcement has been forthcoming. Approached at the event, Thorne said only that the issue would be addressed "in due course." It is unclear whether the committee is waiting for the ceremonies surrounding Ito's selection to conclude before issuing its verdict, or whether it intends to drop the matter entirely. The Pritzker jury will not reconvene again until January.

In the meantime, the hubbub surrounding Scott Brown shows no sign of subsiding. The matter has earned coverage in The New Yorker, The New York Times, the Chicago Tribune, CNN, and Bloomberg. (ARCHITECT featured an extensive interview with Scott Brown back in April.) A Change.org petition started by Arielle Assouline-Lichten and Caroline James, a pair of students at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design, has garnered more than 12,500 signatures in support of Scott Brown since it was launched earlier this spring.
Read the Q&A with Denise Scott Brown
That petition has been signed by a number of prominent Pritzker Prize–winning architects, including Rem Koolhaas, Rafael Moneo, Richard Meier, and Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron (who jointly received the 2001 award). Last year's laureate, Wang Shu (whose wife and design partner Lu Wenyu was left off the award), also supported the petition—as did Zaha Hadid, a Pritzker Prize–winner who has also served as a juror. Even Venturi himself has signed on, with the short and sweet statement, "Denise Scott Brown is my inspiring and equal partner." At press time, the petition continues to garner signatures: in the vicinity of 100 in the 24 hours beginning Wednesday afternoon.
"I think we've already made an impact, by calling out the fact that the recognition of women is a problem," petition co-founder James says. "Our Women in Design student group [at GSD] will have some very considered events this fall to discuss the issues of partnership and collaboration. What we're doing is developing a long-term dialogue about collaboration and creativity."
I.M. Pei's John F. Kennedy Library affords a view of Boston Harbor as Pritzker cocktails get started.
The whole fracas continues to shine a somewhat glaring spotlight on the clubby male world of architecture. Only 17 percent of all AIA members are female, and no woman has ever won the organization's Gold Medal award. Only two women—Hadid and Kazuyo Sejima of SANAA—have won the Pritzker. And though the prize was launched in 1979, no woman served on the jury until 1987, when critic Ada Louise Huxtable joined the committee. Other women have been appointed to the jury since (including a record three in 2005.) But this year's jury—the one that selected Ito as the 2013 laureate—was all male until curator and critic Kristin Feireiss was appointed this month.
Moreover, the controversy raises longstanding questions about the nature of the prize itself—on whether it makes sense to continue to bestow an award on individuals in a field that requires a high degree of creative collaboration. As the Globe editorial put it: "The myth of the architect as a singular male genius—the Howard Roark in Ayn Rand's Fountainhead—feels increasingly antiquated in a world where design has become less about skyscrapers and more a tool to address global issues, including climate change, water scarcity, and poverty."

Scott Brown, for one, says this is an opportunity for the Hyatt Foundation, which sponsors the Pritzker, to reconsider the nature of the award. "I think they need to think about what it means to be creative," she says. "They have a right to say that the award is about creativity in design. But there is also creativity in analysis, in engineering, in planning, in all sorts of other things." Ultimately, all of these factors go into producing good architecture, she says.
Scott Brown has not heard from the Pritzker committee and has no idea whether her case will be publicly addressed. In March, when she casually told the Architects' Journal, in videotaped comments, that she was owed a Pritzker inclusion ceremony, she had no idea that it would lead to media coverage and a petition. "A ceremony is a public event that affirms community values," Scott Brown says. "I called for a ceremony of inclusion. The truth is that, minus the Pritzkers, the petition has given me that."

2014 Family Movie Preview
- 'The Lego Movie' (February 7, 2014)
What It's About: The first full-length Lego movie follows everyman mini-figure Emmet (Chris Pratt) who is mistaken as the "chosen one" to save the world. Like Frodo, he embarks on an epic journey with a fellowship of much stronger mini-figs to stop a villain from ruining the LEGO universe.
Why We're Excited: It's impossible not to be excited about a movie that stars the multi-talented Pratt as the guileless protagonist and includes popular Lego characters like Superman (Channing Tatum), Batman (Will Arnett), Green Lantern (Jonah Hill) and Wonder Woman (Cobie Smulders), as well as Morgan Freeman. An epic journey plus Legos times a ton of comedy, action and even romance equals a lot of fun for the whole family.
- 'Mr. Peabody & Sherman' (March 7, 2014)
What It's About: A genius dog named Mr. Peabody lives with his sweet adopted son Sherman, but when Sherman accidentally tells a visiting girl about his father's WABAC time-travel machine, they can't help but test it out. Since time travel is never consequence free, Mr. Peabody and the kids are forced on an adventure through history to try and fix the future.
Why We're Excited: Ty Burrell is the voice of Mr. Peabody, the talking dog scientist, and the historical figures are voiced by actors like Mel Brooks as Albert Einstein, Stanley Tucci as Leonardo da Vinci, and Lake Bell as the Mona Lisa. History lessons, time travel, and well-known celebs as legendary icons is a winning combination for parents and kids.
- 'Muppets Most Wanted' (March 21, 2014)
What It's About: It turns out our beloved Kermit the Frog has an evil Doppelganger, the nefarious thief Constantine. The "world's most dangerous frog," Constantine manages to switch identities with Kermit, sending Kermie to a Russian prison, while he infiltrates the Muppets and plans his greatest crime ever.
Why We're Excited: How can we not be excited? All of the Muppets are back, this time opposite stars like Tina Fey (in a hilariously thick Russian accent), Ricky Gervais playing Dominic Badguy (that's "bad-GEE" -- it's French), "Modern Family" star Ty Burrell, and a slew of other celebrities from Tom Hiddleston, Zach Galifianakis to Salma Hayek and Danny Trejo. We can't wait.
- 'Rio 2' (April 11, 2014)
What It's About: Blu and Jewel are now parents with three children, so Jewel decides to teach the kids about their wild heritage with a trip to the Amazon. Once there, the family of five discovers other blue macaws, including Jewel's stern father... but the family reunion includes new dangers, like the angry parakeet Nigel.
Why We're Excited: Rio was one of 2011's most colorful animated hits, and the sequel looks more of the same -- lush visuals, a catchy samba score, (it is Brazil, after all), and the voice talents of Anne Hathaway (Jewel), Jesse Eisenberg (Blu), Jemaine Clement (Nigel), and Jamie Foxx, plus new additions Rita Moreno, Andy Garcia, and more! Plus, the trailer features giggle-worthy gag of an adorable capybara belting out "Memory."
- 'Disney's Bears' (April 18, 2014)
What It's About: Every year around Earth Day (April 22), Disneynature releases another wildlife documentary, and 2014's is about -- you guessed it! -- bears. Set in Alaska, the "true life adventure" follows mother bears as they take their new cubs on their annual journey for food and shelter.
Why We're Excited: Disneynature's docs are a perfect combination of educational and entertaining, so they're ideal for kids who love animals. If you think teddy bears are cute, take a peek at mama brown bear Sky at her cubs in the trailer, and you won't be able to resist the call of the wild to see Disney's latest animal doc. - 'Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return' (May 9, 2014)
What It's About: In this animated Oz sequel, Dorothy Gale figures out a new way to return to Oz. Once back, Dorothy realizes her old pals, the Cowardly Lion, the Tin Man, and the Scarecrow, are in danger thanks to a villain called the Jester, who turns people into marionettes. Dorothy once again embarks on a journey, but this time it's to save Oz, not just to get home.
Why We're Excited: "Glee" star Lea Michele headlines this animated musical sequel to "The Wizard of Oz" as young Dorothy with a fantastic vocal range. The rest of the cast is equally as standout: Kelsey Grammer is the Tin Man; Dan Aykroyd is the Scarecrow; James Belushi is the Cowardly Lion; Broadway vet Bernadette Peters is the Good Witch, Glinda; and comedy legend Martin Short plays the villainous Jester. - 'Maleficent' (May 30, 2014)
What It's About: Remember "Sleeping Beauty"? This is a prequel and retelling of that fairy tale told from the perspective of the villain, Maleficent, so we can finally know why the stone-hearted sorceress curses baby Aurora in the first place; we all know it couldn't just be sour grapes at not being invited to her christening!
Why We're Excited: After a four-year hiatus to direct, travel the world as a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations, and raise her six kids with fiancé Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie is exercising her acting chops -- as one of Disney's most sinister villains. Everyone wants to see her pull it off, and it doesn't hurt that lovely young Elle Fanning is Princess Aurora and that the debut director is an Oscar-winning production designer responsible for "Avatar," "Alice in Wonderland," and "Oz the Great and Powerful," so the visuals will be stunning. - 'How to Train Your Dragon 2' (June 14, 2014)
What It's About: Based on Cressida Coswell's best-selling children's book series, "How to Train Your Dragon 2" takes place five years after the events of the first film. There's peace between the dragons and the people of Berk, but when Hiccup and his dragon, Toothless, stumble upon a secret cave that is home to hundreds of wild dragons, they find themselves having to protect the peace once again.
Why We're Excited: We've been waiting four years to return to the island of Berk, with its brave and funny Vikings -- and of course Toothless, the most adorable dragon ever to grace the screen. We hope the delay in producing a sequel means the adventure is worth the wait. Oscar winner Cate Blanchett and "Games of Thrones" star Kit Harington join the already-packed voice ensemble of Jay Baruchel, America Ferrera, Jonah Hill, and Kristen Wiig. - 'Planes: Fire & Rescue' (July 18, 2014)
What It's About: In the second of the DisneyToon Studios' planned "Planes" trilogy, air racer Dusty Crophopper joins an elite crew of firefighting aircraft to protect Piston Peak's National Park from a raging wildfire. The rescue team includes veteran helicopter Blade Ranger, energetic Lil' Dipper, and a group of all-terrain vehicles that race the clock to stop the fire.
Why We're Excited: "Planes" wasn't as popular as Disney Pixar's "Cars" films, but it struck a chord with little vehicle fans who loved the underdog story. The sequel will broaden the "Planes" universe with emergency response aircraft and vehicles that are sure to enthrall young viewers who know the differences between a heavy-lift helicopter and an ex-military transport. "Modern Family" star Julie Bowen (Lil' Dipper) joins Dane Cook as the main voice cast.
- 'Dolphin Tale 2' (September 19, 2014)
What It's About: The original 2011 family hit (pictured here) involved an injured dolphin with an artificial tail, an injured veteran who inspired the marine prosthetic, and cute kids who made it all happen. This sequel promises a similar feel-good story, but focuses on Hope, an orphaned dolphin found nursing from her fatally injured mother.
Why We're Excited: The cast of "Dolphin Tale" reunites (Ashley Judd, Harry Connick Jr., Morgan Freeman) for the sequel to a rewarding, well-told family drama based on a true story. For further inspiration, Bethany Hamilton, the subject of the similarly inspiring 2011 feature "Soul Surfer," joins the cast, so expect a motivational story children and tweens will especially connect with next fall.
- 'The Boxtrolls' (September 26, 2014)
What It's About: Set in Victorian England, this 3D stop-motion animated film follows an orphan named Eggs raised by cave-dwellers called the Boxtrolls who horrify the oh-so-proper townspeople with their trash-collecting ways. Eggs returns the favor by battling an exterminator (voiced by Sir Ben Kingsley) who is threatening to kill off the Boxtrolls.
Why We're Excited: We're anticipating high-quality, creative animated storytelling. "Boxtrolls" is the third joint venture by the stop-motion geniuses at Laika Studios and Focus Features; their earlier two projects, "Coraline" and "ParaNorman," both garnered Oscar nominations for best animated feature. Isaac Hempstead Wright, best known as Bran Stark on HBO's "Game of Thrones,"' stars as the voice of Eggs. The uproarious British comedy mates Simon Pegg and Nick Frost star.
- Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day (October 10, 2014)
What It's About: After the title character (played by Ed Oxenbould, pictured) wakes up with gum in his hair, his day only gets worse. After he complains to his family, he gets no sympathy, so he wishes they'd all suffer the same as him -- a wish that comes true to everyone's exasperation.
Why We're Excited: Based on the beloved 1972 children's book of the same name, "Alexander" promises big-budget, high-concept Disney production. Lisa Cholodenko, the Oscar-nominated screenwriter and director of sophisticated indie dramas such as "The Kids Are All Right" and "High Art," co-wrote the script for "Alexander." Steve Carell and Jennifer Garner co-star. Since the "Alexander" book series consists of three volumes, a hit could launch a movie franchise.
- 'Annie' (December 19, 2014)
What It's About: In this modernization of the beloved Broadway and Hollywood musical, a charming orphan dreams of "Tomorrow" while living a "Hard Knock Life," until she's taken in by an intimidating but ultimately kind-hearted billionaire. Meanwhile, Annie's scheming orphanage manager, Miss Hannigan, tries to capitalize on Annie's search for her birth parents.
Why We're Excited: Quvenzhané Wallis, who became the youngest actor to be nominated for an Oscar after her breakout role in "Beasts of the Southern Wild," stars as the titular, ever optimistic orphan. Academy Award-winner Jamie Foxx -- who obviously knows how to carry a tune -- re-imagines Daddy Warbucks as Benjamin "Will" Stacks, a media mogul he modeled after Sean "Diddy" Combs. Will Smith, who, at one point, was attached to star in it opposite daughter Willow, produced the film with fellow rapper-turned-entrepreneur Jay-Z. - 'Night at the Museum 3' (December 25, 2014)
What It's About: Ben Stiller returns for the third installment of the popular children's book adaptation involving museum exhibits that come to life at night, after all the tourists and field-trippers have gone home.
Why We're Excited: While "Night at the Museum 2" lacked the spark and excitement of the series' wildly creative original offering at the Met, the idea of fossils, statues, and mounted tigers coming to life still captivates anyone with an jot of imagination or wonder. Besides, Ricky Gervais, who stole the show in the second installment, recently signed on to reprise his role as Stiller's peevish boss.
- 'The Nut Job' (January 17, 2014)
What It's About: After Surly the squirrel is exiled from his park, he's forced to fend for himself in the city until he stumbles upon the key to his -- and his former friends' -- survival: a nut shop he plans to rob with a crew of misfits preparing for winter.
Why We're Excited: It comes out in January, when families will be ready for their first post-"Frozen" and "Hobbit" trip to the movies. "The Nut Job" is the first kid-friendly movie of the year, and it features the instantly recognizable voices of Will Arnett (Surly), Liam Neeson, Maya Rudolph, and Katherine Heigl. When your family starts to get stir crazy from the freezing temps, this will make a good excuse to head out to the movies.

It's a lot of fun and growing steadily, join the movement before it's too late!
Anyway, hope to see you both here and there, I guarantee you'll enjoy it if you give it a chance.

They are saying it's a 'clean' break. He will still need surgery and the time table for return is unknown (hearing mostly a month to two months), so what do the Birds do?
Is Punto the answer? Make a move on the 40 man and get Carpenter up here? (Does anyone know if he's been doing well down there?)
Thoughts anyone?

Obviously, it's not been that great and we haven't got the results we wanted. The last couple of races have been more a question of surviving not attacking and that's not what anyone wants. That said, Monaco and Montréal are both street circuits; they're quite different from a lot of tracks we visit and there are quite a lot of variables. You never know how you're going to go at those two tracks but we do now and at least we got a few points.
Silverstone is a more normal circuit and we've been okay at every other permanent circuit so far this year. There's no reason why we shouldn't be back to the positions we should be with this package. We just have to be patient, do our very best over the entire weekend and step by step we can start catching the leaders.
Silverstone is all about long sweeping high-speed corners and high downforce levels. It's one of the fastest circuits on the calendar; it's very challenging and the flowing corners are pretty good fun to drive. Hopefully our new parts will help us; particularly in the faster corners. If that's the case, it could be a good weekend.
I've always enjoyed racing at Silverstone. I don't know why; there must be this nostalgic feeling that I have every time we go there
Yes, it's always such a good feeling going to Silverstone. It's a great place to race and it has been a good circuit for me since the very beginning of my career. I have a long history there. It was the real base for the start of my international racing career in Formula Renault in 1999 and 2000. Since then I've always enjoyed racing at Silverstone. I don't know why; there must be this nostalgic feeling that I have every time we go there.
When you win in Silverstone, it gives such a good feeling. You have to get everything exactly right. I won there in Formula Renault and then in Formula 1 with Ferrari in 2007. It would be fantastic to win again there, especially with the factory just down the road. I'm sure we would have some fantastic celebrations.
It's always windy at Silverstone. Often it rains too, like we saw last year in qualifying. The track conditions change very quickly, which makes the car more tricky to set-up. Obviously when you are running at the front it's best to have stable conditions, but I don't mind really. The weather is just a part of the fun of racing in England. I'll enjoy the weekend whatever the weather will be.
The team has worked 100% to have a really competitive car for the home race. Silverstone is the closest circuit to the factory so hopefully we can celebrate a good result with all of the factory personnel and their families who bring their support every year.

Released on 20/09/10. Strange, Sultry and Seductive...fierce, fascinating and feverish - here are sounds to quicken the heart-beat; the tropical fantasy of a hidden world. A woman¹s voice calls, hypnotic and compelling; drums repeat the haunting command and the music weaves a spell of mystery.
From the early fifties, with the onset of international air travel, Exotica became a massively popular musical trend; making it possible for middleclass Americans to simulate an authentic travelogue experience - to India, Africa, Cuba, or the South Seas - in the comfort of their suburban homes.
This public looked to Les Baxter, Martin Denny, Arthur Lyman, Yma Sumac, Korla Pandit or Robert Drasnin to provide (in contrast to the prevailing rock and roll scene) a mystical combination of Oriental, African and Latin sounds, decorated with natural effects gathered from the sea, sky and forest.
Exotic music was originally conceived with Ravel's Bolero and Debussy¹s Pagodes. It left the classical world and entered pop through Les Baxter. In 1950 he created Voice of the Xtabay with four octave Peruvian singer Yma Sumac and a year later released the seminal work of exotica, his tone poem Ritual of the Savage (Le Sacre Du Sauvage).

Drug-induced lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disorder that is brought on by a reaction to a medicine.
Lupus - drug induced
Drug-induced lupus erythematosus is similar to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). It is an autoimmune disorder. This means your body attacks healthy tissue by mistake. It is caused by an overreaction to a medicine.
The most common medicines known to cause drug-induced lupus are:
Other less common drugs may also cause the condition. These may include:
Symptoms tend to occur after taking the drug for at least 3 to 6 months.
The health care provider will do a physical exam and listen to your chest with a stethoscope. The doctor may hear a sound called a heart friction rub or pleural friction rub.
A skin exam shows a rash.
Joints may be swollen and tender.
Tests that may be done include:
A chest x-ray may show signs of pleuritis or pericarditis (inflammation around the lining of the lung or heart). An ECG may show that the heart is affected.
Most of the time, symptoms go away within several days to weeks after stopping the medication that caused the condition.
Treatment may include:
If the condition is affecting your heart, kidney, or nervous system, your doctor may prescribe high doses of corticosteroids (prednisone, methylprednisolone) and immune system suppressants (azathioprine or cyclophosphamide). This is rare.
Guard against too much sun exposure when the disease is active by wearing clothing and sunglasses and using sunscreen.
Most of the time, drug-induced lupus erythematosus is as severe as SLE. The symptoms often go away within a few days to weeks after stopping the medicine you were taking.
Avoid taking the drug that caused the reaction in future. Symptoms are likely to return if you do so. Get regular eye exams to detect any complications early.
Call your health care provider if:
Watch for signs of a reaction if you are taking any of the drugs that can cause this problem.

Click here to view available curtain fabric colors Make your home theater more like the theaters of yesterday with custom home theater drapes in velvet. Choose from over 30 fabric colors. These drapes are custom made to your specifications with a 3 prong pinch pleat. You will need either the motorized Makita drape kit or the manual curtain rods to complete your drape installation. Measure the rod length and specify if you would like a 1 way draw (one drape) or a 2 way draw (two drapes spit in the middle.) We will automatically add 6" of material for a one way draw and 12" of material for a two way draw so that the drape is properly fitted.
Stackback is the amount of space occupied by your draperies when they're open. This must be determined before buying your traverse rods and ordering your draperies. The stackback will vary depending on screen (or window) size, fullness and fabric. The chart below is a guide for determining your rod face if you want to leave the screen exposed when the draperies are opened. The chart is for average fullness and fabric for two-way draw draperies. You will want to make adjustments accordingly. For one way draws, deduct 7" from the stackback dimensions. STACKBACK CHART
