A horror film that pays homage to the slasher genre; five friends going on a ski trip get lost and it's all downhill from there.
About this project
Five friends travel to Vermont for an end of college ski trip. When they end up at the wrong location and can't backtrack because of the intense snow and secluded surroundings, they decide to take shelter in a foreclosed house overnight. But when they wake in the morning, things are suddenly not quite what they seem and it's too late to turn back.
Summit is a feature film thriller that pays homage to the slasher genre in both its cliche set-up as well as its surprising originality. This film will be loved by horror film fans and newcomers to the genre alike. It works on a face value level as an exciting and eerie thriller that will shock, scare, and surprise you. But it is also a deeper film that explores human nature. It aspires to be a notable addition to not only the horror genre, but also independent cinema in general.
- The goal of this campaign is to raise $12,000. This may seem like a lot of money but it is nothing in the world of filmmaking. We worked out our budget and came to the conclusion that this is the absolute bare minimum needed to make this film happen. Your money will go towards equipment and location rentals, feeding and housing the cast and crew during production, props, wardrobe, make-up, transportation and other production expenses, as well as post-production expenses. Every dollar you give will move us one step closer to making this all possible.
- There are not many female directors in the horror genre, and certainly none who have gained recognition within it. By backing this project, you'd be helping to change this fact by helping one young woman make her directorial step into the genre.
- You'll be contributing to a really awesome film that will entertain you and so many others. You'll also be making all the pre-production work done by the crew and cast completely worth it. And you'll be making the dream of a young budding filmmaker making her first feature film come true.
- Production for Summit will commence in January of 2013. It will be submitted to major Film Festivals once it's complete (Sundance, Tribeca, Toronto International, to name a few). So here's your chance to be part of something huge and exciting.
- If you decide to help, you pledge whatever you want in exchange for cool rewards. The more you pledge, the better the rewards!
- If we make the goal by the deadline, your credit card is charged what you pledged (but not until then). We get to make the movie, you get your rewards, and everyone's happy!
- If we don't make the goal by the deadline, your credit card is not charged, we get none of the money, you don't get any reward(s), and the world doesn't find out what happens in Summit!
The AMAZING PEOPLE involved in this film who have worked hard and need this kickstarter campaign to be successful:
Christina Raia (Writer, Producer, Director) Matt Gershowitz (Assistant Director, Editor) Christopher Carroll (Art Director, Associate Producer, Post-Prod Effects) Ryan Kramer (Associate Producer) And 12 more talented and committed crew members.

Please read NC Law concerning the stipulations of arrest in domestic situations. The officers did not have a choice with the evidence in front of them. Furthermore, Mr. David has no interraction with the officers during the period in which they make their determination TO ARREST. Finally, Mr. Berger is imploding infront of everyone. He is not doing himself, his family or MOST IMPORTANTLY, the people he serves any justice. In fact, he is making a mockery of all elected positions in NHC. Or, maybe Brian himself wrote the last comment. Sounds more like it. »

By Joseph Dalton TROY – Most everything of what we call Western music follows in the path of J.S. Bach, who perhaps more than any other composer codified harmony and form. So what's really all that special about Jennifer Koh's series of concerts and recordings titled "Bach and Beyond"? For starters, she plays beautifully and […]

This Wonderful Life @ Capital Repertory Theatre, 11/27/12
By Michael Eck ALBANY – Capital Repertory Theatre's last main stage effort was a meta-exploration of a classic novel. Now, with "This Wonderful Life," the downtown company is staging a similarly post-modern deconstruction of a classic film.

Here Are 5 Retailers With Big Short Interest
NEW YORK (TheStreet) - Retail stocks such as Vera Bradley (VRA - Get Report), J.C. Penney (JCP - Get Report), Lululemon (LULU - Get Report), National Grocers (NGVC - Get Report) and Aeropostale (ARO - Get Report) may be worth taking a look at, as these companies are some of the most-heavily shorted retail stocks (short interest above 15%), a "high" number, according to Wells Fargo Securities analyst Paul Lejuez.
Among the 62 retail stocks within his team's coverage, 14 stocks had short interest of 15% or greater, which is the highest number of companies above the 15% threshold in the post-recession period. Of the 14 stocks with high short interest, those that have been shorted the longest have seen the largest stock price declines.
"It seems the market isn't feeling too confident about retail these days," Lejuez wrote in the note. "Any stock that crossed the 15% short interest level over the past 12 months (11 stocks in total) is still above 15%. In other words, the market is sticking with its shorts. The market seems to be more convinced than ever about which stocks across our retail universe will be the underperformers."
The retail sector has underperformed the broader markets this year, with the S&P 500 Retailing Index down 5.5%, while the S&P 500 is up 6.2% year to date.
On one hand, it shouldn't be surprising when companies find themselves high on the list. They're typically struggling, and either embarking on or failing at a turnaround attempt - meaning that investors have little confidence that while the companies sort themselves out, the stocks will rise. Short sellers have been betting on Vera Bradley, J.C. Penney, Lululemon and Aeropostale between one and three years. The four stocks' absolute stock decline has ranged from 44% to 77%, as of June 19, when the note was published. The exception is Natural Grocers, which had at first went against the trend with shares rising 72% in the first year after it hit 15% short interest. However the stock is down 49% year to date.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Challenges for new cabinet
PUBLISHED: 13 Sep 2010 00:10:21 | UPDATED: 13 Sep 2010 00:10:21PUBLISHED: 13 Sep 2010 PRINT EDITION: 13 Sep 2010If Prime Minister Julia Gillard had really wanted to make a statement about the new minority government's "courage" on productivity and economic reform in week one, it would have been simple. She would have removed Kim Carr from the industry and innovation portfolio, replaced him with someone who sees that globally competitive industries do not grow from a featherbed of state patronage, and called a stop to the latest bribe to keep car-makers here.

Man I hope someone who speaks Spanish comes along to help. Guys, I can't speak Spanish well, but I understand well enough that he needs "help identifying this gun" (as close as I can translate it)
Rough translation-I am a collector and I need to classify this revolver that was shown in a 1953 film entitled Jack Slade starring Marck Stevens. I HAVE ATTACHED PICTURES THAT I HAVE. I cannot identify it- it is important for me Thank you I THINK- most of my language instructors had nervous breakdowns. I THINK that is a Colt Single Action Army, but we should have some folks here that are into Single Action Shooting Sports- what say you?
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.
The second pic looks almost like a Remington by the grip profile. At least it does to me.
1875 Remington.

This was our second time staying at the Meadows Inn Bed & Breakfast in Rushford, Minnesota. This place is everything you want a B&B to be. The facility is beautiful - set on a hill surrounded by trees (very secluded), the rooms are well appointed and each is offers something different, and the breakfasts are gourmet! We met the other people staying at the Inn the same time we were there and by the end of the weekend we were all good friends. The owners, Doug and Marie, make sure each guest is comfortable and that their needs are being met. I highly recommend this B&B.
Innkeeper Response
We love return guests! Thanks for coming for your second visit and we hope to see you for a third! Thanks for the wonderful comments-we are glad you had a good time while in Rushford.

We had the most amazing time at Meadows Inn Bed and Breakfast. The bed was extremely comfortable. The breakfast was the biggest, most fantastic breakfast we've ever eaten anywhere in our lives. The service was top notch. Doug and Mary are so accommodating and such kind generous people. We came as strangers and we left as friends. The landscaping was so beautiful, and every detail was given special attention to. Our expectations were more than exceeded. We can't thank them enough for making our stay something that was truly memorable.

Thanks so much for the kind and gracious comments!!! We love our guests and always love to hear when you have had a good time here. Hope to see you again at our bed and breakfast.

Cozy, comfortable and great place to go to get out of the city and enjoy some peace and quiet. Not far from Lanesboro, where there are some neat shops to visit and enjoy. The best part is the food, as Marie cooks up a family style breakfast that is the best we've had at any B&B. Simply delicious and amazing!

Stop the Execution of Saeed Jazee
Saeed Jazee was sentenced to death by Iranian authorities for a crime committed when he was 17 years old. In 2003, Jazee was attacked in a friend\'s sandwich shop by a man armed with a knife. In the scuffle, Jazee picked up the knife just as his attacker charged him. The man was wounded and later died. Both Jazee and other shop employees have stated that the man\'s death was accidental. However, Jazee was convicted of murder and sentenced to death. His lawyer is appealing for a retrial. Jazee is one of 79 child offenders facing the death sentence in Iran. Since 1990, Iran has executed as many as twenty-eight six child offenders, six in 2007 alone. Iran is party to both the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). This petition urges the Iraninan government to uphold its obligations under international law by overturning the death penalty handed down to Saeed Jazee and taking immediate steps to end the death penalty for child offenders. The petition will be sent to: Ayatollah Mahmoud Hashemi Shahroudi - Head of the Judiciary Howzeh Riyasat-e Qoveh Qazaiyeh / Office of the Head of the Judiciary Pasteur St Vali Asr Ave South of Serah-e Jomhouri Tehran 1316814737 Islamic Republic of Iran (Source: Amnesty International UK - http://amnesty.org.uk/actions_details.aspActionID=397)

Ashbee confident of climbing table
Hull skipper Ian Ashbee believes it is only a matter of time before manager Nigel Pearson discovers a winning formula.The Tigers have struggled to adapt to life in the Championship under Pearson this season and have been languishing at the wrong end of the table.But they clinched their first win in nine games at Preston last weekend and Ashbee insists they will move clear of trouble.He told the club's official website: "You don't want to be down there but I know we've got a good enough squad here. I've been around quite a few squads at Hull and I know this is a very good one. It's a matter of finding the right mixture and blend."I've got no worries about us pushing up the table. It's important to get ourselves out of there because psychologically it's not good but I just know there's a good side in there, it's just a matter of finding it."

text: Hi Fergus, hi everybody else, hmm, Fergus, please explain what do you want to achive, what are you afraid of? You wonder why I'm asking although you've given quite some details? The security-requirements for any system depends on the purpose you want to use it for. If you wanted to setup your box like some surfing-station in an internet-café, you were told keep your [anonymous] user from re-configuring the desktop, and to keep him from doing some harm on the shell, because anything else would mean neverending labour at reverting the tweaks the users had made. -> how this could be achived you'll definitly be able to find somewhere on the web, IIRC there's a 'kiosk-mode' for instance in KDE. -->> What you must consider if you'd like to setup your private workstation like this is, that the restrictions you've setup will hinder your daily work, so you'll find yourself in doing daily work being 'super-user' the whole time! If you'd like to setup a server, I'd recommend that it's serving only one single service, anything else raises the risk of losing data because of an exploit in a sevice that appears unimportant and is because of that seldomly updated. -> Because there's only one open port on it, there's no need to do firewalling, except for special cases, see my firewalling-hint. -->> If you can't afford this layout you've to make a compromise at security. If you were responsible for a big amount of computers, each one probably insecure, you could benefit by using a firewall. -> you could restrict any access from the internet to these computers. -->> Your user will very soon tell you that 'something is not working anymore', so you'll have to loose the firewalling-rules, mostly upto some level that would mean a total ineffectivness of the firewall! But in the case that -> you're having your own computers, less than a handfull of them. -> you know of the programs you've installed on them. -> you're the only one that's doing any work on it, or, you trust your users, nobody will do any harm just for fun! -> you're doing 'all days work' being some 'normal' user, having restricted access, NOT root. -->> (A) what you fear is, that you make some mistake and delete, for instance, '/usr', or change by accident root's password to something weird. -->> (B) what you fear is, that your filesystem gets damaged in an power-failure -->> (C) what you fear is, that you delete your documents by mistake, or your harddisk sounds weird and you have no backup, or the backup on the old floppies proves unreadable. -->> (D) what you fear is, that somebody bad scans your masquerading router and finds a service you've misconfigured, e.g., X11. -->> (E) You've to use proprietary software, and fear that there's some trojan implemented in it. Is this the case you're thinking about? Have I forgotten something? --->>> This is the case where the hard labour begins: ;-) (A+B) Think about some elaborated layout of your filesystems: /, /bin, /dev, /etc, /lib, /sbin, /usr \ on a seperate partition, mounted read-only /boot - " -, - " - /home - " -, eventually mirrored /opt, /usr/local, /usr/X11 \ - " -, mounted read-only /root - " -, mounted writeable /var, /tmp - " -, - " - If you install any software you'll be able to remount the read-only mounted partitions rw, remounting them ro immediately after the installation, so your filesystem will be OK in the case of a power-failure. If you ask which filesystems I recommend, I don't know, but I would chose some fs thats capable of journalling for at least those that are mounted writeable in daily use, if not for all. BTW: You may get a simpler layout if you make intensive use of symlinks or if you use the new Linux2.4 feature of 'mount -o bind /var/tmp /tmp'. If you would really like to setup this layout, please ask again, I'll tell you of my experiences in doing so, some of the bootscripts have to be changed. (C) Do regular backup your documents, on floppies, on tapes, on your harddisks, whatever you can afford. If you are very conscious about your documents, encrypt the archive and transfer it to somebody you pay for keeping it [=webspace]. (D+E) Setup your own 'personal firewall', as lined out in my hint. These are just my EUR 0.02, I hope they do help you, Henning PS: excuse me for starting a new thread, but I couldn't find your first mail as a posting in the newsgroup. -- Unsubscribe: send email to listar at linuxfromscratch.org and put 'unsubscribe blfs-support' in the subject header of the message

Someone posted a comment from Jonathan Kraft (if i remember correctly, may have been BB) saying the Pats would spend to the cap this year. Since he said it, there's no reason to doubt it but here is my question: If the Pats DON'T re-up Seymour and Branch this off-season and given what's left in the FA pool, is spending to the cap possible without making a trade for a high profile player or two, say Walker or Moulds for example? Besides Arrington, whom we are unlikely to sign, there doesn't seem to be a lot of high dollar guys left in the FA pool that would command huge salaries that would eat up the cap. Plus with the re-signing of Neal, Evans, Brown, Hawkins, Poteat at addition of Caldwell it doesn't seem like we have as many roster spots to fill as we did a week ago.
Kind of seems like you've got the cart before the horse here. I hope you don't give your wife a credit card and issue a similar challenge.

Learn to Paint Bright and Colourful Watercolour Poppies
Julie King - Posted on 12 Mar 2008
Learn to paint vibrant poppies in watercolour
Gardens can be quite complex and overwhelming. The key to interpreting the subject successfully is to simplify. For the purpose of my demonstration I have focused on these stunning poppies grow ing in the herbaceous border.
Step 1
Working on prestretched paper, lightly sketch the three poppy heads and stems with a 2B pencil. I generally start by looking at the geometric form of a flower head. Poppies fit into a
bowl shape . Leaves have a distinctive profile with a serrated edge.
Step 2
1 Begin by painting the flower heads. Starting in the centre of the pink poppy, apply a pale mix of new gamboge and cobalt blue on a dry base, using the No. 8 brush. Add a little more blue to the mix and apply it while still wet. This will give more depth.
2 Using the No. 10 brush, wet the base of the entire surrounding flower head and drop in a small amount of dilute new gamboge to add warmth and depth to the pink that follows.3 Add dilute permane n t rose, working the brush from the centre outwards and from the outer edge inwards to suggest subtle form.
4 The sun is catching the petals on the left side and bleaching them so use a clean, damp brush to lift the colour gently to reveal white paper.
5 Continue to work th e other two petals in the same way. In the orange flower head, use a stronger wash of new gamboge to begin and combine it with scarlet lake for the second wash.
Step 3
1 To establish a balance of tones, start work on the background. Prepare four pools of colour: aureolin yellow, new gamboge, cobalt blue and a mix of new gamboge and cobalt blue.
2 Using the No. 10 brush, carefully wet around each flower head then continue to wet the entire paper with the No. 16 round or mop.
3 Apply aureolin yellow in soft patches, then new gamboge in the area above the main pink poppy to suggest diffused yellow flower heads, followed by patches of neat cobalt blue and, finally, a mix of the blue
and yellow. As the paper is damp, suggest movement and texture in the background by dabbing your brush or applying the paint using a sweeping movement. Leave to dry thoroughly.
Step 4
1 When dry, return to the flower heads. Working each petal individually and alternately, wet them with clean water and apply a stronger wash of colour. Work from the centre outwards, drawing your brush to a finer point.
2 Use permanent rose and quinacridone magenta on the pink flower. To create a cooler, deeper shadow, add a tiny amount of green to the permanent rose.
3 On the orange flower, use scarlet lake combined with new gamboge. Dropping in a touch of permanent rose on top of the previous mix while wet can add to the vibrant colour effect.
Step 5
1 The centre of the pink poppy requires more depth to emphasise the cup shape so rewet the petals and add stronger tones of pink. Using the No. 8 brush, draw soft lines from the centre of the petals outwards to suggest their crumpled tissue paper effect.
2 When dry, use the No. 4 brush to add finer details.
3 Repeat this on the orange petals, adding a touch of blue to the mix for the details.
4 Working wet on dry, add still more depth and shaping to the green centre.
5 Finally, add the richly-coloured anthers using a mix of indigo and permanent rose with a tiny touch of new gamboge.
Step 6
1 For the stems, mix a pool of new gamboge and cobalt blue and apply a sweeping brushstroke of colour on dry paper with the No. 8 brush. Towards the top of the stems, add a stronger mix of green, followed by a touch of the flower head colour. Using your smallest brush, flick out tiny brushstrokes to suggest the hairs.
2 Continue with the leaves, combining negative painting with a positive technique. Initially work on the positive leaves, applying a base of cobalt blue mixed with new gamboge to a dry base. While this wash is still wet, drop in neat dilute cobalt blue and a stronger mix of green. A touch of pink can be added to the green to give more body.
3 The leaf on the left-hand side catches the sunlight so the light base wash should shine through. Diffuse the positive section of the leaf and complete it by adding negative painting around the profile of the tip. Other leaves can be suggested in the same way.

Step 7
To complete, add a suggestion of veins using a stronger mix of the colours used in the previous stage.

Ive found my greatest fear
Its being forgotten
No, not like meeting someone for one minute and
Being afraid they wont remember me later
Its not being remembered at all
Im afraid of not existing
I dont want to be just ash and dust
No way Ill make history
Can the common person be known?
I dont want to be famous
Just remembered
But can you receive one
Without the other?
Can I be a shadow
With something that lasts?
No, I dont want light
Lime colored, spotted, or other wise
I want to show someone
How it was
Without them
Finding my life story
I guess its a common fear
A selfish fear
But I want to be
For this fear
I scream out in silence (though nobody hears)
And hope that the echoes reach somebodys ears
[Dont forget me]

Symptoms suggestive of neuroleptic malignant syndrome have been reported with abrupt withdrawal of dopaminergic therapy. Therefore it is recommended to taper treatment.
Neupro® contains sodium metabisulphite, a sulphite that may cause allergic-type reactions including anaphylactic symptoms and life threatening or less severe asthmatic episodes in certain susceptible people.
Hallucinations have been reported, and patients should be informed that hallucinations can occur.
Cases of cardiopulmonary fibrotic complications have been reported in some patients treated with ergot-derived dopaminergic agents. Neuroleptics given as antiemetic should not be given to patients taking dopamine agonists. Ophthalmologic monitoring is recommended at regular intervals or if vision abnormalities occur.
External heat, from any source should not be applied to the area of the patch. Exposure of a skin rash or irritation to direct sunlight could lead to changes in the skin color. If a generalized skin reaction (e.g. allergic rash) associated with the use of Neupro® is observed, Neupro® should be discontinued.
Caution is advised when treating patients with severe hepatic impairment or acute worsening of renal function, a dose reduction might be needed.
The incidence of some dopaminergic adverse events, such as hallucinations, dyskinesia, and peripheral oedema generally is higher when given in combination with L-dopa. This should be considered when prescribing Neupro®.
Neupro® should not be used during pregnancy. Breast-feeding should be discontinued.
Augmentation may occur in Restless Legs Syndrome patients. Augmentation refers to the earlier onset of

LOS ANGELES (AP) — At every turn of Endeavour's stop-and-go commute through urban streets, a constellation of spectators trailed along as the space shuttle ploddingly nosed past stores, schools, churches and front yards.
Having escaped out of Earth's atmosphere two dozen times, Endeavour's slow-speed trek Saturday to its retirement center took it through the working-class streets of southern Los Angeles.
In an instant, the shuttle crossings became part of history.
"This is great for the city as a whole. It makes us proud," said Dean Martinez, a project director for a nonprofit who began waiting before dawn to get a glimpse of Endeavour.
Along the 12-mile course, thousands marveled at the engineering. Some rooted for Endeavour when it appeared it might clip a light post.
Others wondered if it could just hurry up to its destination as its planned hour of arrival came and went with the end nowhere in sight.
Endeavour had been scheduled to inch into the California Science Center early Saturday evening to begin its years as a museum piece, but delay after delay pushed the expected arrival time past 1 a.m. Sunday, perhaps hours later.
Agencies scrambled to make new plans. Because it was spending far more hours in darkness than expected, a pair of city fire trucks with generators and huge halogen lights were brought in to accompany it.
Subway and light rail lines further extended their special operating hours well into the night, with some running 24 hours.
The second day of the move started off promising, with Endeavour beginning the day 1½ hours ahead of schedule and ending it at least six hours behind.
There was no major single reason for the slowdown — it was the accumulation of small problems involving maneuvering and maintenance.
They included a small tree on the narrowest section of the move that planners hadn't thought needed removal but ended up bringing the procession to a stop. As crews tried to find ways to tilt and twist the shuttle past the tree, they came close to deciding to cut it down before Endeavor squeezed through. Another slip-up came when it appeared the shuttle was going to hit a light post, and crews again began plans to remove it as the ship slid through.
The crowd had its problems too. Despite temperatures in the mid-70s, more than two dozen people were treated for heat-related injuries after a long day in the sun, according to fire officials.
But incredibly, given the size of the crowd, police reported no arrests.
Unlike other high-profile events like the Academy Awards or the Rose Parade, the procession was centered in some of the area's most economically downtrodden and troubled places. The shuttle passed several gritty areas and shuttered businesses, and rolled down many streets that were aflame two decades earlier during the 1992 riots brought on by the Rodney King beating.
"Having a shuttle come through this area of high poverty, it can only be a good thing" for the community," said Damian Pipkins, a volunteer at Eso Won Books.

Greta Oglesby, a late bloomer as an actor, is suddenly the center of attention in the poignant lead role of "Caroline, or Change."
Avid Guthrie theatergoer Susan Lenfestey was crying when she left the opening-night performance of "Caroline, or Change." The Tony Kushner musical about Caroline Thibodeaux, a black maid employed by a white family, had dredged up memories from Lenfestey's own childhood.
Then there was actor/singer Greta Oglesby, whose portrayal of Caroline transmitted the character's pain and anger with an exquisite, deep-reaching beauty. After joining the audience in a sustained standing ovation, Lenfestey asked, of Oglesby, "Who is she? Where did she come from?"
Many theatergoers are asking that after seeing what Lenfestey describes as Oglesby's "superstar turn."
Although it's Oglesby's second turn at the Guthrie — she sang in "Crowns" there in 2004 — she is hardly new to the Twin Cities theater scene.
The actor moved to the area from her native Chicago in September 2000, when her husband, the Rev. Dennis Oglesby. was appointed Minister to the City at Hennepin Avenue United Methodist Church in Minneapolis. (In June 2006, he became pastor of Park Avenue United Methodist Church in Minneapolis.)
"I was apprehensive, because in Chicago, you have to know someone in order to break into the theater," Greta Oglesby said. "Things are fairly open and welcoming here."
A lark, a surprise
The second to last of five children born to a father who was a bishop in the Church of God in Christ and a schoolteacher mother, Oglesby learned to sing in the church. "My siblings and I were always the choir, the ushers, everything, in my father's storefront churches," she said.
She graduated with an accounting degree from historically black Rust College in Holly Springs, Miss., where she met her future husband. (Her daughter, Meghann Oglesby, graduated from Rust the day after "Caroline" opened.)
Oglesby worked for a year as an air-traffic controller in Memphis after college, then for 14 years as an accountant with the city of Chicago. Leafing through the Sun-Times one summer day in 1992, she saw an audition notice for a play called "Mens" at the Chicago Theatre Company. On a lark, she tried out. She won a part.
"I absolutely fell in love with theater and acting," she said last week in the kitchen of her Brooklyn Park home. "I had no idea that I could act. But after that first experience, it's like I came into myself."
She continued to act in Chicago, including at ETA, a black company on the city's South Side and at the Goodman Theatre, while taking classes in acting.
A 'Gem'
Not long after arriving in the Twin Cities, she nailed her first audition, for Penumbra Theatre's Lou Bellamy, and was cast as the title widow in "A Love Song for Miss Lydia." She has done other shows at Penumbra, including playing the matriarch in "Black Nativity," and Bertha in August Wilson's "Joe Turner's Come and Gone."
Wilson first saw her in that show in 2002. He was so impressed with the authenticity and power of her presence onstage that he asked Oglesby to audition for a part in his next play, "Gem of the Ocean."
He cast her as Aunt Ester, who is the center of "Gem." It premiered at the Goodman in spring 2003.
"When I got the call from his casting director in New York, I thought it was going to be a tiny little part," she said. "I felt so honored. I really didn't know until I got the script. Then I was just way beside myself. It was so rich and spiritual, going on that stage every night."
At the premiere of that play at the Goodman, Wilson told Oglesby "that there are only two women who say his words just like he hears them, and I am one of them," she recalled. (Wilson did not name the other woman.) "If I never get another compliment from anyone about my craft, that is enough for me."
Onstage, Oglesby "is connected to something deep and enduring, with all that great artistry, but with a lot of heart, too," said Marion McClinton, who directed her in "Gem." "She is the genuine article."
After Oglesby originated Aunt Ester in Chicago, the producers decided they needed a name for the Broadway run. They cast Tony Award-winner Phylicia Rashad as Aunt Ester and asked Oglesby to be her understudy. She declined.
(She did understudy Rashad in the subsequent Broadway revival of "A Raisin in the Sun.")

I'm recreating a historic recipe and it calls for "two handfuls of ground malt". I'm thinking that's about 1/3 of a pound of crushed 2row. What do you think? Any one willing to weigh two handfuls of crushed grain for me? It could be asking for actual ground grains, but I'm thinking crushed is a better interpretation of it.
Uh, why not mill some grain and do some testing? Then take your average. Does it give any sort of indication how strong the final beer is, or how sweet, etc?
_________________________________Skal! Den Faaborg Bryggeri
It's for a sweet metheglin. A sweet, herbed, short mead. I don't have a mill, that's why I'm asking here. Without a better answer I'm going to use my guesstimate.
A possibly better question for those of you who do mill your own malt. How much does the volume of grain increase after it is milled?
Thanks for making me feel stupi k47k
Not my intention. Sorry.

British Foreign Secretary William Hague to visit Kiev on Sunday
Published on Mar 1, 2014 6:02 PM
LONDON (AFP) - British Foreign Secretary William Hague will visit Kiev on Sunday for talks with the interim Ukrainian government as tensions rise with Russia over Crimea, a Foreign Office spokesman said.
The spokesman had no further details about the trip, but Mr Hague tweeted overnight: "Have just spoken to Acting President (Oleksandr) Turchynov.
"I will travel to Kiev on Sunday for talks with the new government."
Mr Turchynov had appealed to Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday to "stop military provocation" and withdraw from Crimea, after pro-Russian gunmen seized the government and parliament buildings in the capital Simferopol.

Because you touch yourself at night
This submission is currently being researched & evaluated!
You can help confirm this entry by contributing facts, media, and other evidence of notability and mutation.
Because you touch yourself at night or BYTYAT (for the Newgrounds BBS (Bulletin Board System)) is a pretty simple and exploitable meme that started on Family Guy episode 27 (or the 20th episode of season 2) called Wasted Talent, first aired July 25, 2000.
As flashbacks are commonly used in the show, it's generally to include a random joke normally not related at all with the story. For this meme, the text goes:
Peter (to Lois): "I haven't felt this crappy since the time I went to that museum"
Peter (as a child): "Why did all the dinosaurs die out?"
Curator: "Because you touch yourself at night."
This answer, totally random, then became popular as an answer to everything stupid, boring, unknown, etc. as "because you're gay" used to be in the past.
Why do you drink so much?

Why do fishes swim?

Scudamore cautious over City
12 Aug 2008 - 08:59:34
Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore has confirmed that his organisation are closely monitoring the ongoing concerns surrounding Manchester City owner Thaksin Shinawatra.
The former Prime Minister of Thailand has skipped bail in his homeland after refusing to answer fraud and corruption charges, with Scudamore aware that the situation could change again in the near future.
He said: "As always, we will take advice from the Home Office and the Foreign Office.
"We are not experts in law in every country, so it is wise to speak with the people who are."
Scudamore went on to confirm that the league will ensure that Shinawatra remains able to meet the 'fit and proper persons' criteria to be an owner in the English game.
He added: "Of course, if we feel the rule has been breached, we will invoke it. We will not turn a blind eye to issues of a serious nature.
"It is quite a complex matter and can't just make a judgement on the spot, but we have a club owner who has not yet been found guilty of any offence.
"However, it is an evolving situation and we will look at it."

GASB Addresses Accounting for Sales and Pledges of Receivables and Future Revenues
October 19, 2005
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) issued a September 30 exposure draft designed to clarify existing guidance on accounting for sales and pledges of receivables and future revenues. The draft addresses whether certain transactions should be regarded as a sale or a collateralized borrowing. Examples of such transactions would be the sale of student loans; mortgages; or future revenue agreements.
Historically, such transactions have not been authoritatively addressed by GASB. The draft would establish criteria that public institutions and governments would use to determine whether such transactions are sales or collateralized borrowings. Sales generate revenue and remove the assets, and collateralized borrowings result in liabilities.
In addition to clarifying guidance on accounting for sales and pledges of receivables and future revenues, the proposal will:
- require enhanced disclosures pertaining to future revenues that have been pledged or sold;
- provide guidance on sales of receivables and future revenues within the same financial reporting entity; and
- provide guidance on recognizing other assets and liabilities arising from the sale of specific receivables or future revenues.
The requirements in the draft would improve financial reporting by establishing consistent measurement, recognition, and disclosure requirements applicable to both governmental and business-type activities. The requirements of this proposed statement would be effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 16, 2005.
NACUBO plans to comment on the draft and we would like to hear from members who may be affected by the proposed statement. NACUBO encourages interested institutions to comment through written response to Sue Menditto, director, accounting policy. The deadline for submitting comments is December 30, 2005.

Monday, February 20
American Airlines Center
Attendance: 20,364
Dallas, TX (Sports Network) - Dirk Nowitzki scored 26 points and grabbed 16 rebounds, and the Dallas Mavericks never trailed in handing the Boston Celtics a fourth straight loss, 89-73.
Jason Terry chipped in 16 points and six assists for the Mavs, who took advantage of no Kevin Garnett (personal) and no Rajon Rondo (suspension).
Dallas rebounded from Sunday's loss to the Knicks by outscoring the Celtics in the paint, 32-18, and cashing in 25 points off 17 Boston turnovers.
Paul Pierce led Boston with 20 points, while Ray Allen contributed in 15 in defeat. Avery Bradley added 12 points in place of Rondo, who was suspended two games by the NBA "for throwing a ball at an official and striking him in the chest" during Sunday's setback against the Pistons.
"They were two men down without Rondo and K.G., so a different ball club," Terry said. "They tried to junk up the game and I thought we did an excellent job of being patient and getting what we wanted on the offensive end."
The Mavs scored half of their points in the paint in the opening quarter and held the Celtics to 6-of-20 shooting en route to a 20-15 advantage.
Nowitzki backed up a seven-point first frame with 14 in the second, helping extend the hosts' cushion to 44-34 at halftime.
Dallas scored 10 of the first 12 points in the third -- capped by a Nowitzki three-pointer -- and went ahead 60-40 on a Jason Kidd trey just past the midway point. The margin grew as high as 24 a little later.
Marion's last-second tip-in gave the Mavs a 70-53 lead heading to the fourth, and Boston went away quietly.
"We're losing, number one, because we're not playing well; number two, because we are injured," Celtics head coach Doc Rivers said. "We just couldn't make shots."
