We choose Blue Hill because we feel in love with the house and the beautiful country setting - you can see the mountains and we are surrounded by 36 acres - 5 acres of fields and the rest is wooded and we are close to the Shenandoah. Blue Hill also offers us the opportunity to get away from the city but is close enough to DC that the the drive is relaxing and if we want to do something there are tons of options - so we can just relax and do nothing or we can plan a weekend of fun things to do!
Blue Hill is a unique home - the word comfy and inviting is the word most often used to describe what guests love about Blue Hill.
We have thoroughly enjoyed your house this week. We came for our Granddaughter/ nieces wedding and this was a perfect place to stay. We were relaxed and away from the frey of wedding stress. Our Bride and her new husband were able to come after the wedding and have a relaxing afternoon and decompose. Your property is beautiful and full of history. We loved the creaking of the wood floors and could appreciate the warm feel. Thank you for sharing this property with us . We are already talking about when we can come back again! Take care & God bless!
Our family stayed at Blue Hill to receive out of town guests for our daughter's wedding. This home is so very peaceful, lending a feeling of slower, easier times. Everyone felt the calm & grace that this home exudes. Blue Hill is very well equipped with extra touches to ensure you have a comfortable at home experience. A special home, indeed.
There were just five of us in our small band of golfers. We thoroughly enjoyed Carla's home. It was spacious yet comfortable and cozy at the same time. She had so many great touches that made it feel just like we were at home. The area is quaint and very welcoming. We enjoyed lunch and fresh veggies from the Locke Store. We also enjoyed visiting Old Town Winchester. El Centro Mexican restaurant is amazing. The home is very close to the golf courses we played. We are planning a return trip with a larger group!
My extended family and I spent a week at Blue Hill and had a wonderful time. The house is so beautiful and well laid out. I grew up in an old house and it felt like coming home. It was terribly hot and humid the whole week, but with the central air conditioning we were never uncomfortable. We took day trips to the arboretum, grist mill, and Long Branch Historic house, all of which are literally five minutes from the house. My sister-in-law got riding lessons at a horse farm around the corner, and we went tubing down the Shenandoah at Watermelon park. The house was spotlessly clean and well equipped. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a relaxing place in the country that isn't super remote.
Thank you for a great couple of days away from the world. I was a little skeptical booking the house due to the price compared to the size. I wasn't disappointed, the house was a fantastic value. The house is old and rustic where it needs to be and current and modern where it needs to be. There were only four of us so room wasn't an issue at all. Carla was fantastic to deal with and went out of her way to provide anything we needed. Don't let the size of the house versus the price fool you. This is a fantastic Home Away find!!
I was here with a group of women for a long-weekend hiking-and-wineries bachelorette trip, and we had a fantastic time. The house is large, spacious, and grand, furnished with pretty antiques to look at and sturdy furniture to actually use :) It's one of the best vrbo houses I've been to. Everyone got her own bed, and since there are three awesome full bathrooms upstairs, we weren't fighting for shower time! The upstairs did get very warm since the air conditioning didn't seem to be working up there, but admittedly we never called the owner about it, instead just opening the windows to catch the breeze. The kitchen is well-stocked (we made good use of the waffle-iron!), and there's a Costco and a Food Lion just a 15-minute drive away. The hot tub was huge! The wifi wasn't good enough for streaming music, unfortunately, so bring your own playlists. Wineries are a 20-30 minute drive away (I'd recommend Fox Meadows and Arterra in particular). For nice scenery, birds, and walking, check out the Virginia State Arboretum two minutes up rt 50. We also especially enjoyed sitting on the house's wrap-around porch with a nice glass of wine and snacks. And having sheets and towels included is a huge bonus, since we thus didn't have to take room in our luggage for our own. Thank you to the owners for such a wonderful stay!
This charming colonial was delightful. It is older, but spacious, with updates in many places throughout the home. There were gathering spots and hide-away spots. A large, functional kitchen with everything we needed. A large dining room where we spent most of our time together, although we could have easily used the huge living room area with the large flat screen television. We also enjoyed the deck and the fire pit. There is also a hot tub, although we never had time for it.
Most in our group had traveled quite a distance to come to a local canine competition, so we were delighted to be able to relax together at this lovely home, and cook or own meals, instead of meeting at a hotel or restaurant. We were grateful for the small fenced area where our dog could be safe, and for use of the laundry towards the end of the week.
We had a delightful time, and made many memories, which will be re-lived for years to come. And Blue Hill was the center of it all. If we return to this area of the country, we will return to Blue Hill! Thank you!!

Unitarian Universalists Hold Daylong Fast in Brea For Immigration Reform
A group of seven Unitarian Universalists staged a 24-hour hunger fast in downtown Brea in support of comprehensive immigration reform. The protest, which ended at noon today, featured the placement of fasting tents outside the office of Republican Congressman Ed Royce (R-Fullerton). Activists also collected petitions for a letter addressed to him regarding their legislative demands on immigration.
"Most people have been positive and curious," says Debbie Lagenbacher. The Unitarian Univeralist activist helped organize the event and participated in the water-only fast. "We've gotten several signatures. We've had probably 50 or 60 people that have signed copies of that letter for us to take up there."
The women joined the "Fast for Families" movement that began last November with a month-long action outside the doorsteps of the U.S. Capitol. While casual folks passing by are largely receptive, Representative Royce, the man of the hour, has been less so.
"I've actually been working to get an appointment to Mr. Royce and his staff for quite awhile," Lagenbacher adds. "Last year it took me three months to get a meeting with one of his staff people. This year, I tried to schedule a meeting with someone in his office for today. I've made several emails, several phone calls, meet face-to-face with his scheduler and still didn't get a meeting."

Lagenbacher, identifying as a humanist, underscores that the fasters come from the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Fullerton making a majority of them direct constituents of the Congressman.
The letter by them to him begins, "People of faith are called to stand with the vulnerable and the oppressed." For Royce, he'd need a 'come to Jesus moment' to understand that! It further calls the current immigration system "broken" saying, "It is tearing families apart and threatening to stymie the futures of promising students who have been raised in the U.S."
The demands for systemic change includes an end to human rights abuses against migrants, stopping Know Nothing laws that racially profile, and the creation of a humane immigration system with a pathway to citizenship. In the letter the fasters also rejected the notion that there's "no room at the inn," referencing the biblical story Jesus Christ's birth. As Unitarian Universalists are comprised of people raised in various faith traditions (or no tradition at all) the Weekly asked, "Who would Jesus deport?"
"When you consider that Joseph and Mary, according to the story, were wanderers and trying to find a place to stay, they were not welcomed anywhere because they were migrating," Lagenbacher says. "There was no place at the inn so they had to stay at the stable.
"Certainly one would expect to some degree people of that faith would consider that when thinking about immigration."

If you have the time, money, and access to a convenient gym, it's a great place to get in shape and stay that way. However, with a relatively small investment, you can create your own gym environment at home and ultimately save time, money, and accessibility. All you really need are a few basic pieces of equipment that will focus on cardio and strength training.
Having a home gym filled with the right equipment can save you hundreds of dollars a year in gym fees, babysitting services, and even cute gym clothes! Let's face it ladies, most of us have the gym outfit and then the home gym outfit and I'm guessing the home gym outfit is way more comfy.
Clear the ping pong table out of the way and declare that corner of the basement yours. Add the following gym staples and you've got your own circuit training course that can be done any time of day, in any weather. Bonus reason for the home gym? If your exercise playlist includes a heavy metal, smooth jazz, country music shuffle, you just take out the headphones and crank it right up.
Must-Have Home Gym Equipment List
Elliptical: Easy on the joints and limbs, this home cross trainer mimics stair-climbing, walking and running. With the touch of a button you can go from slow crawl to an intense workout. You have the power to challenge yourself every time you step on. (more…)
You know how sometimes you just want a donut? This is a feeling I actually have a lot–basically every time I walk past the bakery section of the grocery store. I usually don't give in, but sometimes I do because, you know, everything in moderation—even donuts.
On a recent trip to the grocery store I gave in. And it was totally worth it. I picked a cake donut that had chocolate frosting and sprinkles because if you're going to go, go big. I savored the treat, making sure I wasn't distracted while eating. I really wanted to enjoy every bite. And I did. Indulging at the start of my shopping trip probably helped me keep from filling my cart with unnecessary items. I purchased a bunch of produce and some kitchen staple but nothing baked or packaged. (more…)
Sloane Maymon of Branford, Connecticut, had good reason to lose weight: At the age of 45 her father had a massive heart attack and underwent quadruple bypass surgery, and her mother also suffered from heart disease. This family history caused concern for her own heart health, which left Sloane not wanting to follow in her parents' footsteps.
Though weight didn't become an issue until later in life, Sloane's struggles with eating had seemingly always been present. "I've never had a healthy relationship with food. Even as a child and young adult I misused food and was never taught the value of nutrition."
Shortly after getting married at the age of 25, Sloane starting gaining a few pounds here and there. After her first child at the age of 29, she found found it difficult to lose the baby weight. "I assumed it was normal now that I was a mom to carry a few extra pounds. With each passing year and then another baby, I just kept putting on more and more weight." (more…)
In 1996 Oprah greeted her audience with a treasure trove of free gifts and prizes as she debuted the hottest giveaway daytime TV had ever seen. Oprah's Favorite Things has grown to be the stuff of legends, and people would give arms and legs to have a seat and a chance to take home the media mogul's top picks for holiday gifts. Oprah's a giver, a giver of high-quality, high-end, premium gifts and it's hardly anything you'd find on a clearance rack.
Since the end of her wildly popular daytime talk show, Oprah's Favorite Things has faded in to TV history. But now through her OWN network, O Magazine, and a new partnership with Huffington Post, Oprah's breaking the two-year hiatus with the announcement of 48 items on the 2012 Favorite Things list.
Some of it is quite posh and not likely to make it on to the holiday budget of most of her fans (like a nearly $2,000 Jetson-style battery-powered scooter), but some of it is completely in reason. Even better, a few items on her list are even good for you!
Top of the list is the Q37ci elliptical trainer. It's a pricey addition to a home gym at $3,099, but it certainly pays for itself with dedicated use. She says her trainer Bob Greene turned her on to it and she loves the various options for total body workouts in one machine. (more…)
Since most of us no longer have to toil the fields or walk miles to anywhere we want to go on a daily basis, exercise is hard to fit in to our daily routines.
Most American jobs are done while sitting all day long. Most of us also get to and from those jobs by riding in some sort of vehicle. By the end of the day, many of us have barely moved our body at all. Obviously these truths are major factors in our weight epidemic. So, what can we do about it? One company has recently taken a stab at this issue.
A company called Rightangle has invented a new type of desk space called the LifeBalance Station. The station incorporates the beneficial concept of a standing workstation and it has paired it with an elliptical type attachment for an optional chair. The chair can slide back and forth allowing for standing or sitting at anytime. The chair resembles the top of a comfortable office chair while the foot rests are the pedals of the elliptical machine for exercise.

Published: May 1, 1988
(Page 2 of 4)
Thoreau's appeal is to that instinct in us -adolescent, perhaps, but not merely adolescent - that resists our own gravitation toward the outer, larger, fiercely competitive world of responsibility, false courage and ''reputation.'' It is an appeal as readily described as existential as Transcendentalist; the voice making it is individual, skeptical, rebellious. The greatest good for the greatest number - the sense that we might owe something to the State - the possibility that life is fulfilled, not handicapped, by human relationships: these are moral positions not to be considered. ''I have lived some thirty years on this planet,'' Thoreau says boldly, ''and I have yet to hear the first syllable of valuable or even earnest advice from my seniors. They have told me nothing, and probably cannot tell me any thing, to the purpose.''
Can it be true, or is it a useful fiction, that the cosmos is created anew in the individu-al? That one can, by way of a defiant act of self-begetting, transcend the fate of the species, the nation, the community, the family, and - for a woman - the socially determined parameters of gender? Surely it is doubtful that Nature is a single entity, a noun congenial to capitalization: ''The indescribable innocence and beneficence of Nature, -of sun and wind and rain, of summer and winter, -such health, such cheer, they afford forever! and such sympathy have they ever with our race, that all Nature would be affected, and the sun's brightness fade, and the winds would sigh humanely, and the clouds rain tears, and the woods shed their leaves and put on mourning in midsummer, if any man should ever for a just cause grieve.''
How to reconcile this Nature with the Nature of lockjaw and tuberculosis, of agonizing deaths and prolonged griefs? (Thoreau himself was to die young, at age 44, of consumption.) Yet these fictions, these willed metaphors, very nearly convince within the total argument of ''Walden.'' We believe even while disbelieving, even as we cannot entirely believe, but do, or wish to, in what Thoreau tells us repeatedly of the autonomy of the human soul. Quite apart from his mastery of the English language - and certainly no American has ever written more beautiful, vigorous, supple prose - Thoreau's peculiar triumph as a stylist is to transform reality itself by way of his perception of it - to transmute it into his language. What is the motive for metaphor in any poet - in any poetic sensibility - but the ceaseless defining of the self and of the world by way of language? In his journal for May 6, 1854, Thoreau writes: ''All that a man has to say or do that can possibly concern mankind, is in some shape or other to tell the story of his love, - to sing; and, if he is fortunate and keeps alive, he will be forever in love. This alone is to be alive to the extremities.''
To read Thoreau in adolescence is to read him at a time when such statements carry the weight, the promise, of prophecy: ''To be alive to the extremities'' with no fixed or even definable object for one's love seems not merely possible but inevitable, and desirable. As existence precedes essence so emotion precedes and helps to create its object. If the human world disappoints us - as in adolescence it so frequently does, not only in falling short of its ideals but in failing to grant us the value we wish for ourselves - we have the privilege of repudiating it forever in exchange for the certainty of a far different kind of romance, or religious mission. ''We should be blessed if we lived in the present always, and took advantage of every accident that befell us,'' Thoreau says, but such vigilance is possible only if one has broken free of human restraints and obligations - plans for the future, let's say, or remorse over one's past acts; only if the object of one's love is not another human being. Thoreau proposed marriage to a young woman named Ellen Sewall in 1840, was rejected, and forever afterward seems to have turned his energies - his ''love'' - inward to the mysterious self and outward to an equally mysterious Nature.
But all art is a matter of exclusions, rejections. To write of one subject is to ignore all others. To live one life passionately - to drive it into a corner, reduce it to its elementary terms, see whether it be ''mean or sublime'' - is necessarily to detach oneself from other lives. If Henry David Thoreau is an emblematic and even a heroic figure for many writers it is partly because the ''Henry David Thoreau'' of ''Walden'' is so triumphant a literary creation - a fiction, surely, metaphorical rather than human, pieced together as we now know by slow painstaking labor out of the journals of many years. (At the time of his death Thoreau left behind an extraordinary record - 39 manuscript volumes containing nearly two million words, a journal religiously kept from his 20th year until his death.) In fact ''Walden'' is mosaic rather than narrative, a carefully orchestrated symbolic fiction and not a forthright account of a man's sojourn in the woods.

Incentive zoning draws a crowd and strange bedfellows

Chinese Estates proposes spin-off
Chinese Estates Holdings, the property developer controlled by Joseph Lau Luen-hung and brother Thomas, has confirmed it has made an application to the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong for a spin-off of its mainland property projects.
Company secretary Lam Kwong-wai said directors of the company would like to stress the proposed flotation was 'still at an early stage and the proposed listing may or may not proceed'.
The company is among a number of property firms which have revealed plans to spin off their mainland property projects.
Other property firms which have indicated such intentions over the past month are Cheung Kong (Holdings) and Lai Sun Development.
Chinese Estates' executive director Thomas Lau Luen-hung said recently the size of the company's China business was big enough for a spin-off and a separate listing could help streamline its property investments in Hong Kong and the mainland.
The company's annual report stated its China investments as at December last year amounted to $1 billion, representing about 5.3 per cent of the group's net asset value.
Its total capital commitment in China reached $62.9 million by the end of last year.
The portfolios include commercial, residential and hotel projects in major cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
Earnings contributions from mainland operations have been rising over the past few years and profits contributed by the division would continue to increase.
Profit contribution in mainland China last year reached $29 million, or 5.7 per cent of the company's net profits.

900 mil is a fair price. Imagine bks stores selling aapl products. They wouldn't need best buy.
I was thinking AMZN, but agree Apple is a better idea. The stores are worth the market cap. It would put books in the mindes of people, tie the market idea to Apple more. And they could sell their Macs and everything else. The debt would vanish over night.Good idea. AMZN and APPLE both should be thinking about it. AMZN's weak point is you cant really take a look at the books. Their market cap is HUGE compared to Barnes and Nobel. Apple stores are nowhere. Its a better idea, only Apple products. I think Barnes and Nobel goes up more. Especially, when shorts cover.just a hunch
Same store sales are down to me this indicates there are too many stores. Store closings seems to be the logical conclusion. If more people are buying ebooks why do you need so many brick and mortar stores?Stop paying out rent and save the money.
What? Are u crazy? AAPL doesn't need BKS stores. It already has its own stores.
Hrm. Get double the retail outlets for a fraction of the price? BRILLIANT! The digital rights to the e-Books BKS has alone is enough for them to buy them.

90 per cent of Australians have one modifiable risk factor for heart disease. We're investing in a future free from cardiovascular disease.
Cardiovascular disease affects 2 in 3 families and tears families apart. Early detection can mean the difference between life and death.
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in Australia, killing 125 people every day. Today's research is tomorrow's cure.
Coronary heart disease is the leading killer of Australian adults. As such, there is currently much debate over which 'diet' is best for reducing a person's risk of having a heart attack or stroke, with each diet's advocate claiming that their approach is the best. Paleo, low carb, low fat, vegan, raw… It can all get quite confusing.
It's World Heart Day this week. And, at the Heart Research Institute, we are excited to celebrate by announcing our new partnership with White Candles.
A new stent, which dissolves in the heart after fixing blocked arteries, is now more easily accessible to Australians. Dr Sanjay Patel, cardiologist and HRI Cell Therapeutics Group Leader spoke to Gabriella Rogers at Channel 9.

'The Loft Down Under' located in the basement facing Pagosa's main street. It's just a short walk across the street to the World Famous Hot Springs Pool and Hot Tubs. It is a open loft with a king size log bed and queen size hide-a-bed couch that will accommodate 4 comfortably. Enjoy the 50 inch HD DirecTv, comfortable furnishings, and cooking in the retro kitchen with all new LG appliances.
Moving from Texas in the fall of 1985 with our two young sons was out of our comfort zone – leaving most of our family and two grown daughters back in Texas. However, we fell in love with Pagosa Springs and the beauty of the mountains, and have always been happy with our decision. We bought the Metropolitan Hotel in 1988 after it was renovated. It was office space except for one four bedroom loft. After our boys grew up we moved to Denver and just recently we remodeled the loft and now use it as a vacation spot for family and friends and anyone else wishing to visit and enjoy a few days in the mountains.
Jacque Aragon purchased this apartment in 1988
The loft is located downtown across the street from the world famous Hot Springs and our family as well as visitors enjoy the hot healing waters after a day at the slopes. Speaking of the slopes it is only a short 20 minute ride to Wolf Creek Ski Area. It's a saying around town that this area is the 'Best Kept Secret' in Colorado. Wolf Creek has the most powder in Colorado! It's a snowboarders paradise! Please leave your comments in our journal in our loft and please enjoy!
-Danny and Nettie Wood
Pagosa Lumber Company founder A.T. Sullenberger purchased the two-story brick building at this location in 1918 which was previously occupied by Archuleta Merchantile and built by J.M. Archuleta Jr. in the early 1900's. After a fire destroyed the structure in 1919, Sullenberger constructed the Metropolitan Hotel which featured modern rooms, hot baths for guests and a motion picture theatre.
Now, almost one hundred years later, the Loft at the Metropolitan Hotel sits at the top of it all, welcoming guests to its history.Both apartment rentals are just a short walk across the street to the World Famous Hot Springs Pool and Hot Tubs. Everyone will love the short drive to Wolf Creek for a day on the slopes or just stroll around the shops and restaurants close by! Don't forget the Overlook Hot Springs Spa next door or enjoy a movie at the Liberty Theatre! Anyway you look at it, you will enjoy our lofts and Pagosa Springs!
This place was great! We had an amazing time staying here and will be back in the future. We really enjoyed the Loft Down Under!
It was ok. Very warm in the loft all day and night. A/c was not very good. Turn on a very small fan that made way to much noise. Couch stunk. Shower is very small. Every one was giving it 5 stars. Sorry I give 2. But hey on good side. Right across from the river and springs. Next time I will stay there at Springs resort.
We spent three nights at the Loft Down Under. It was spacious for a studio, clean and comfortable with a very well-equipped kitchen and a very comfortable bed. We watched movies on the Blu-Ray player; on the big screen, they were fantastic. The location is perfect, in walking distance of the River Walk, the Pagosa Bakery and the Alley House Grille, and many other local eateries, with the Overlook hot tubs two doors away. The only drawback was the music coming from the gift shop overhead: Native American flutes are beautiful, but three days' worth is a lot!
The Loft Down Under was huge, super clean & close to everything we wanted to do. The kitchen was so fully stocked with dishes, pots, bowls glasses and utensils we could have never left the building. They have their own wi-fi network just for you and the new washer and dryer came in very handy too. It's literally across the street from the hot springs and less than 1/2 and hour to Wolf Creek Ski Area. We are definitely coming back. And if you have a big group the upstairs loft can sleep up to 14!
The huge flat screen TV and extra wide recliner make this place perfect for relaxing after a day on the mountain.
Awesome shower, very comfortable bed, love the Retro/Modern decor.
We loved this place. Easy access to Main Street and the Hot Springs. A cute and quiet little loft. The kitchen had all we needed to enjoy home cooked meals. Bedding and furniture very comfortable.
We had a great stay in the Loft Down Under. The location can't be beat and the loft was spacious, clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. We were within easy walking distance of multiple restaurants, shops and, of course, The Springs. We never made it to the movies, but the theater is so close we could smell the popcorn! I would definitely stay here again.

Based on what I heard in the conference call today:
- Q4 profit will be better than Q3 profit of $1.6M. I am thinking $2M.
- Margin are expected to continue to expand.
- Zhone is comfortable with $20M for FiberLAN revenue in 2014. This is the key to Zhone's future!
- This was the fourth quarter in a row where the results reported were inline with guidance provided. I am thinking credibility.
In the third week of April 2014, when Zhone announces 4Q14 results, if their results show a meaningful contribution from FiberLAN, lending credibility to "$20-40M for FiberLAN" possibility, Zhone stock price will be ready to flirt with S10 target. I think that is highly likely, and worth waiting for, and that is what I'll do.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
After Hours volume - 175,516.... Closing price - $4.12 ... High trade - $4.22
Any guesses for Friday open? I'm thinking we might have a few good days
coming before the noise begins again.
If I could predict short term price movements, I would trade to profit from those. But I am terrible at judging the day to day price fluctuations. I think scenario painted by "trading_in_the_zhone" is probably what will happen, more or less.
Since I cannot deal with short term, I am focused on the long term, and I think we are on our way to $10 probably some time in Q2 of 2014. Along the way a lots of ups and down. Mory and the crew have turned this thing around!
my guess for friday trading(i plan to sleep though most of it)
open 4.10
ramp down to 3.80 first 20 minutes
back to 4.50 midday
then down to 4.20, then spike up 5+
close between 4.75 and 4.99.....
over 5 millions shares will trade
Institutional investors have requirements for small or micro caps they invest in. Two of them are.....
1. Four profitable quarters in row. Zhone just nailed that, thanks Mory and crew.
2. A share price of $5 or above. Coming soon to a Zhone near you.
This will give a very substantial boost to ZHNE share price going forward.
THAT would be 4
5 would be ok
4th Quarter earnings will be reported in the third week of January 2014. I agree with the rest of your analysis.
You are correct, I meant 1Q14.

10/26/2015 - I don't do social media but I would like to provide a review. The tables were very good quality (I used to work for Gloster Furniture so know quality teak) and I was very happy with them. I would order them again and advise others as well. I did take a picture of it actually, but not sure you can use it as it shows my other teak around it, image attached. PD, DC. (Teak End Table 067) See Customer Photo Here
This occasional table just arrived this past week. I am most pleased as it matches a table and chair set I had ordered a couple of years ago.

Coming Attractions
Indignation - Opens September 30th
Based on Philip Roth's late novel, Indignation takes place in 1951, as Marcus Messner (Logan Lerman), a brilliant working class Jewish boy from Newark, New Jersey, travels on scholarship to a small, conservative college in Ohio, thus exempting him from being drafted into the Korean War. But once there, Marcus's growing infatuation with his beautiful classmate Olivia Hutton (Sarah Gadon), and his clashes with the college's imposing Dean, Hawes Caudwell (Tracy Letts), put his and his family's best laid plans to the ultimate test.
" "Indignation" is an elegant debut for longtime producer Schamus; a visit to the past, with both sunshine and darkness." - Seattle Times.
"This is one helluva compelling film that presents us with several of the very best performances of the year." - Chicago Sun-Times.
"Schamus delivers Philip Roth to the screen with his claws intact. It's riveting cinema. Lerman and Letts give performances that will knock the wind out of you." - Rolling Stone.
110 mins., Rated R.
Certain Women - Opens November 11th
One of America's foremost filmmakers, Kelly Reichardt (Wendy and Lucy, Meek's Cutoff) directs a remarkable ensemble cast led by Michelle Williams, Kristen Stewart, and Laura Dern in this stirring look at three women striving to forge their own paths amidst the wide-open plains of the American Northwest: a lawyer (Dern) who finds herself contending with both office sexism and a hostage situation; a wife and mother (Williams) whose determination to build her dream home puts her at odds with the men in her life; and a young law student (Stewart) who forms an ambiguous bond with a lonely ranch hand (radiant newcomer Lily Gladstone). As their stories intersect in subtle but powerful ways, a portrait emerges of flawed, but strong-willed individuals in the process of defining themselves.
"With Certain Women, Kelly Reichardt confirms her status as cinema's foremost poet of the American Northwest." - Screen International.
"Perhaps the purest distillation of [Kelly Reichardt's] sensibilities as she patiently explores the longing for human connection in a world where men too often get prioritized." - Flavorwire.
107 mins., Rated R.
Moonlight - Opens November 18th
The tender, heartbreaking story of a young man's struggle to find himself, told across three defining chapters in his life as he experiences the ecstasy, pain, and beauty of falling in love, while grappling with his own sexuality.
"Moonlight takes the pain of growing up and turns it into hardened scars and private caresses. This film is, without a doubt, the reason we go to the movies: to understand, to come closer, to ache, hopefully with another." - Time Out.
"Moonlight is a film that is both lyrical and deeply grounded in its character work, a balancing act that's breathtaking to behold." - RogerEbert.com.
"Glows like its title." - Hollywood Reporter.
110 mins., Unrated.

A bulk of new research on chronic fatigue syndrome suggests the condition may not be psychiatric after all, as many believed, and instead may involve a mix of hormonal, immunological and neurological abnormalities. Some brain scans show abnormalities in people with chronic fatigue, and a federal study is under way to look for a distinctive genetic fingerprint associated with the condition.

(MoneyWatch) What do people complain about most? Meetings. What do workers love about working from home? No meetings.
Meetings are the bane of the working day, and yet it's hard to do anything without them. These days, recognizing that collaboration tends to be more creative than assembly-line thinking, getting people together is how we make things happen.
But meetings are very expensive. When I was consulting for a law firm, I once calculated that the total cost of a meeting based on the hourly rates of the participants was more than $10,000. You should expect an awful lot of great ideas at that rate. Even in companies where salaries are far lower, the cost of meetings is high -- in time not spent on other things, in cynicism and politics.

We suggest an ontology-based framework for Web-based learning to be applied with Google Wave. The suggested framework – a model and a skeletal methodology, offers a new approach to Technology-Enhanced Learning, integrating Web 2.0 concepts and tools with advanced pedagogical models, using as platform the innovative Google Wave technology (hereby abbreviated GWave).
Our proposed framework is based on: a) an ontology of pedagogical concepts, b) Web 2.0 technologies, c) Web 2.0 notions of knowledge sharing, collaboration and contribution. The key concepts in the ontology are: a) pedagogical models, b) learning goals, c) collaborative learning scripts. The key steps in activating GWave-based collaborative learning environment are: 1) determining the learning goal, 2) mapping the learning goal to the appropriate pedagogical model, 3) enacting a collaborative pedagogical script embedded in the GWave environment (i.e., for supporting collaborative learning), and finally 4) applying a series of rules that help assess the collaborative learning script in accordance with the learning goals.
The suggested framework allows the selective application of a) Web- and Web 2.0 tools in accordance with the spectrum of technologies and methods available through GWave, b) the social construct, c) the pedagogical scenario (e.g., role-play, group inquiry, problem solving, competition, reaching to agreement, etc.) d) its enacting and e) evaluation.
GWave a serves as an umbrella application that facilitates and hosts not only a spectrum of Web 2.0 tools but also common other knowledge sharing features (e.g., media sharing). Web 2.00 tools (e.g., Blog, Wiki, Knowledge sharing systems, Mashup) allow the realization of a spectrum of learning- and teaching processes such as: planning (e.g., Mashup), editing (e.g., wiki, blog) and design (e.g., Learning object).
In order to allow a complete learning script lifecycle a theory is required to guide the design of a model and a methodology to instruct its realization. In this paper we suggest a) an upper-level ontology of pedagogical scenarios, b) a model and a skeletal methodology for the management of a learning scenario (i.e., that is integrated in the GWave architecture), and c) instantiations of this model demonstrated by two example scenarios.
There is much promise in the framework suggested here. First is overcoming shortages of Web 2.0 tools in the context of supporting learning script lifecycle. Second is enhancing the activity range of classic LMS beyond the (limited) collaboration allowed by these systems towards networking and collaboration, a user-centered approach to learning and a cost-free and widely available environment.
Two scripts are being illustrated through a single run-time embedded plug-in in GWave environment. The suggested framework will be tested for its feasibility and usefulness wi
