Dancing At Lughnasa
July 6, 2016 by admin
Filed under CURRENT SHOW
Brian Friels' award winning masterpiece "Dancing At Lughnasa" (pron. LU-NA-SA) is a tender and humorous recounting of the challenges of the family Mundy in rural Ireland, in 1936.
It is a memory play as told by the youngest (now old man) surviving member of the family many years later, his recollections of the loving, sometimes contentious, relationship between five sisters who are all unmarried and living together precariously by surviving hard times and making the best of it along the way.
The haunting music of the Pagan Festival of "La Lughnasa" as it is called, is evocative of the stark hills and the ancient times before Christianity became Ireland's religion. While the music of the 1930's brings back memories associated with sensuality and the need to the harsh realities during those Depression years.
The cast of eight are remarkable in their ability to capture the subtle nuances of their characters and their relationships.
The sets are done on two levels with panoramic views of the stark setting of the Irish hills and valleys with a suggestion of the unreal.
All in all, this production is presented with much heart and attention to detail.
Join us for another memorable production at the fastest growing theater company in the Wine Country of West Sonoma County.
We now accept ticket pre-sales through Sonoma Nesting Company in Guerneville. Call 707-524-8739 for details.
See you there.

PS, Your Cat is Dead!
March 15, 2016 by admin
Filed under Archive Events, CURRENT SHOW, FUTURE Events
"P.S., Your Cat Is Dead" is a hilarious and thought-provoking comedy about an actor facing numerous life-shattering events on New Years' Eve. Jimmy Zoole (played by Dax Berg) arrives home after losing a role in a play, as well as his part in a soap-opera, to find his girl-friend, Kate (Tina Woods) is leaving him and spending the weekend with another man (Dan Vanek as Fred). To top it off, he discovers he has been robbed for the third time! What happens when he actually captures the thief (Jake Hamlin as Vito Antenucci) is a wild ride that will leave you laughing, and maybe even crying a bit. More than souls are bared at the funniest New Years' Eve gathering one can imagine, as Jimmy gains control of his life and his future. It is no surprise that a good bit of very strong language is exchanged, and since there's also an exposed bum, this show, while fun for adults, is not for children!

Curtain Call Theatre in Monte Rio presents
"Don Juan in Hell" by George Bernard Shaw, one hell of a way to spend an intriguing night at the theater during your holiday season. It has no Jingle bells or any of the usual holiday cheer. But it does have a lot more. Three people who can't decide whether to go to Heaven or to Hell argue about the benefits of each. It's another humorous, naughty Shavian play as a staged reading by Curtain Call Theatre. Enjoy arguments with the Devil about good and evil, the proverbial battle of the sexes, Man and Superman, predictions beyond your imagination, and sobering facts about our world as we know it.
Gretchen Belgrave, Joseph Potter, Michael Tabib, Bill Young

We Won't Pay! We Won't Pay!
The thought-provoking Political satire was written by Italian Playwright, actor, director, and composer Dario Fo in 1974.
The name of the farcical comedy is also translated into English as "We Can't Pay? We Won't Pay!" and "Low Pay? Don't Pay!"
This political farce about consumer backlash against high prices is regarded as one of Fo's best-known plays internationally.

On the Verge, or The Geography of Yearning
July 14, 2014 by admin
Filed under Archive Events, CURRENT SHOW
Curtain Call Theatre in Monte Rio invites you to yet another entertaining production of live theater, filled with imaginative staging, witty dialogue, interesting concepts, and almost overthetop characters. "On The Verge, or The Geography of Yearning" by Eric Overmeyer is a play of language, that follows three Victorianera lady adventurers as they spin through time travel. The play was originally produced in New York City in 1985 to outstanding reviews.
As "On The Verge" begins these adventures of the three Victorian women explorers, it is 1888 and we find them on a beach in what they believe to be Terra Incognita, a new, unexplored land. The three are from very different geographic backgrounds but all exhibit their own form of independence from the world in general and specifically men. During the course of the play the three together discuss many aspects of their past exploring adventures, with Mary played by Gretchen Belgrave, and Fanny played by Lisa Posternak frequently trying to outdo each other. Thalassa Papakonstantis as Alexandra, the third and youngest of the group, and Bill Young who plays a variety of characters, eight in all, round out the cast. As the ladies progress on their travels, it becomes apparent that they are not on an ordinary journey, and as well as trekking, they realize they are time traveling.
Since this is a play about language, the most challenging aspect of "On The Verge" is getting the actors comfortable with the language of the play. The language and rhythm of the Victorian lady traveler is quite different from our contemporary forms of slang and speech. It's fun to watch the construct of their language deteriorate as they move from one time zone to another as they grow nostalgic for the future.
"On The Verge" features a small cast, great script, and a great approach to imaginative theatre. Audience members might leave the theatre following performances of "On The Verge" thinking about how far they themselves have "traveled" in recent years. The play is clearly about women and their particular travel through time. It is also about humans as they move and develop through history and into the future.
Directed by Michael Tabib, the managing director of Curtain Call Theatre at The Russian River Hall. The play features a seasoned cast of talented actors well equipped to provide an evening of fun, frolic, and joyous laughter for all who attend. "On The Verge, or The Geography of Yearning " will open on Saturday, August 9th and run each weekend thru Saturday, August 30th. Each Friday and Saturday performances will start at 8pm. Sunday matinees at 3pm. To make theater more accessible to all, the first two Friday performances are "PayWhatYouCan" events. Our Champagne Buffet Gala fundraising event will be held on closing night, Saturday, August 30th, with a delicious buffet of delectables and desserts plus Korbel Champagne & wines and nonalcoholic beverages. Your donation is fully tax deductible. For this special Gala Event, doors will open at 7PM, Curtain at 8PM. For reservations and further information, please call (707) 5248739.

Over the next five years, more than a million new teachers will enter public school classrooms. But the system in place to prepare these teachers – supported by an ever-expanding set of federal financial aid programs and multimillion-dollar federal grants – offers no indicators of quality for candidates, often college students who borrow thousands of dollars to attend teacher preparation programs.
Watch online this Friday as Secretary Duncan releases his plan for teacher education reform and improvement. National Education Association President Dennis Van Roekel and Teach For America founder and CEO Wendy Kopp will add their thoughts on the best way to recruit and prepare tomorrow's teachers. Then a distinguished panel will offer their insights on the challenges and opportunities involved in preparing the best teachers for the classroom.

Nightmare Town
Nightmare Town
Vintage Crime/Black Lizard, Paperback, 9780375701023, 432pp.
Publication Date: September 12, 2000
"Hammett's pioneering hard-boiled style has been much imitated, but the original--packs a wallop."--The New Yorker
Here are twenty long-unavailable stories by the master who brought us The Maltese Falcon. Laconic coppers, lowlifes, and mysterious women double- and triple-cross their colleagues with practiced nonchalance. A man on a bender awakens in a small town with a dark mystery at its heart. A woman confronts a brutal truth about her husband. Here is classic noir: hard-boiled descriptions to rival Hemingway, verbal exchanges punctuated with pistol shots and fisticuffs. Devilishly plotted, whip-smart, impassioned, Nightmare Town is a treasury of tales from America's poet laureate of the dispossessed.
"Nightmare Town, with its crystalline prose as spare as Hammett himself, is a welcome treat." --The Baltimore Sun
"Hammett's work carries an authenticity and raw power that few writers, before or since, have been able to equal." --The San Diego Union-Tribune
"Hammett's legacy as a giant of crime fiction lives on. The stories are gritty and realistic, full of crisp, sparse dialogue. . . . Like the sting of whiskey as it goes down and the pungent smell of a strong cigar, Hammett's stories and characters don't fade quickly." --The Columbus Dispatch

Oils can be used for different purposes in different areas. One of the uses of oils can be in the form of fuels. Gasoline, fuel oil and diesel fuel are all products of petroleum and are used as fuels. Gasoline is lighter than fuel oil and diesel, and evaporates quickly. Diesel is a natural choice for fuel in Lake Mills as its cost is low and it is not as volatile as�gasoline. Fuel oil in Lake Mills is used mainly as fuel for residential use. It finds its use in some industrial applications also.
Oil companies and plants in Lake Mills produce gasoline, diesel and fuel oils from crude oil and natural gas, after carrying out different steps of processing and development.

Q4/12 revenues were $4.5M versus $5.4M in Q4/11 and $4.9M in the prior quarter. The decline in year-over-year revenues was attributable to decreased sales of BioArchive(NYSE:R) System devices, reflecting the continuing softness in worldwide capital equipment purchase activity. Total disposable sales were higher in Q4/12 totaling $3.3M compared to $3M in Q4/11 and $2.9M in Q3/12. Cost of revenues was $3M versus $3.512M in Q4/11. Gross profit was $1.149M versus $1.866M in Q4/11. SG&A expenses were $1.692M versus $2.245M in Q4.11. R&D expenses were $810K in Q4/12 versus $789K in Q4/11. Total operating expenses were $2.5M versus $3M in Q4/11. Interest expense was $315 k versus $0 in Q4/11. In 8/12, KOOL received $2M in cash related to the sale of assets of the CryoSeal(R) Fibrin Sealant System (CryoSeal) product line. This payment will be reflected in the balance sheet at 9/30/12. The backlog at the end of Q4/12 was $1.5M. Shares used in computing the net loss were 16.4M for Q4/12 and 16.346M in Q4/11.
- KOOL ended the year with $7.9M in cash compared to $8.5M at the end of Q3/12 and $12.3M at the end of FY11.
For FY12: KOOL reported revenues of $19M compared with revenues of $23.4M in FY11. Disposable revenues in fiscal 2012 were $13.2M versus $13.8M in FY11. KOOL reported a net loss of $5M, or $0.30 per share, compared with a net loss of $2.6M, or $0.17 per share, in FY11.
- KOOL has realized a number of important milestones in its growth strategy, beginning with recent product purchase and distribution agreement for the AXP(R) AutoXpress(R) (NYSE:AXP) System with Golden Meditech Holdings Limited, which is affiliated with China Cord Blood Corporation-the first and largest umbilical cord blood bank operating in China. Under the 5 year agreement, Golden Meditech will have annual minimum purchase commitments and exclusive distribution rights for the AXP System-used for the processing of stem cells from cord blood-in the People's Republic of China (excluding Hong Kong and Taiwan) and in Singapore, Indonesia, India and the Philippines once relevant approvals have been obtained in each respective region where they have not yet occurred;
- Initiated new integrated distribution programs for cord blood products with the signing of 3 new and expanded distribution agreements. These include Concessus for several countries in Western Europe, HVD Biotech Vertriebs for 10 countries in Central and Eastern Europe and 13 Middle Eastern countries, and CEI covering nine countries in Latin America. These agreements provide a customer-centric approach by incorporating market, service and product support for cord blood products with a single channel partner by major geography;
- Completed the sale of the CryoSeal System to Asahi Kasei Medical Co., Ltd. monetize this non-core asset KOOL at a transaction price 2 1/2 times the last 3 year's average annual revenues generated by this product line. The $2M cash proceeds from this transaction will be reflected in our 9/30/12 balance sheet.
The Bottom Line: KOOL closed on 9/20/12 at $1.04 down -$0.08 or -7.14%. In the after hours trading KOOL traded <$0.90 - $1.03> down -$0.09 or -8.95% to $0.95but, the recent trading range travels from $1.04 - $1.11 … So it is down on the earnings announcement <who usually is n't> and should bounce back … at least to $1.00 by next week. Today <9/21>is also quadruple witching day - with contracts for stock index futures, stock index options, stock options and single stock futures (SSF) all expiring. Review the recent achievements! I believe KOOL could be a … speculative BUY for it's close to the bottom of the recent range <$0.93> on 8/3/12 and should rebound. KOOL also has $7.9M in cash with a low burn and $2M will be reflected in the balance sheet from a sale on 9/30/12; SG&A is falling but, the speculative ranking is dependent on the softness in capital equipment sales and finally operating expenses fell and should stay steady. Matt Plavan has done a good job … stand by him! The cord blood device product revenues continued to be negatively impacted by the macroeconomic environment this past year. But, KOOL has accomplished a number of important milestones that should facilitate efforts to the near term by securing new customers and distributor agreements, gained product regulatory approvals in growth geographies.

Summer means festivals and the wear of yukata (light summer kimono). The shops have started to display their new collection of yukata and accessories such as bags and geta sandals. Would I buy this one?
Tokyo has a mild climate in the winter and for that reason, there are quite a lot of flowers during that period too, which makes the winter season more colorful!
I love this type of contrast: traditional and modern life brought together. It makes me smile whenever I see an elegant lady in kimono in a place that feels "wrong" like the train or the supermarket!
At the train station, I met this group of happy young people holding dolls heads on which they had proudly practiced hair styles.
Walking around the neighborhood of Gakugeidaigaku in Tokyo, I discovered a small restaurant with old hand-made looking delivery bikes parked outside! A man explained to me that the spring system at the back of the bike is to keep the food box stable when the delivery man is riding the motorbike.
Pocky, the famous chocolate stick biscuit is hugely popular over in Japan, to the point that they have a very wide selection that goes from "super thin sticks" to "the Pocky for men". At the moment, they have a gratitude campaign for Valentines Day where you can find specially packaged Pocky to express your gratitude and love to your special people, like your mother and father. In Japan, Valentine's Day isn't just for couples…
An example of the special Pocky box for Mama ("mum" in Japanese) called Mamacky and Papa ("dad in Japanese) called Papacky!
The standard Pocky looks like that:
The atmosphere in Chuukagai feels so authentic, it's a total change of scenenery from the neat streets of Yokohama. It's really crowded with food stalls and restaurants everywhere! A nice place to visit when in Yokohama.
In winter, it gets really sunny in Tokyo but the sun is very low very quick and gives a beautiful cold light. Cycling around an old neighborhood of Tokyo we came across those old Christmas decoration that get a nice shine in the winter sun!
Like a lot of non-Americans, Japanese people have adopted Halloween! Walking around the most dynamic and youngest area of Tokyo, I came across a few interesting costumes…

How do you make something as vain as men's body shaving seem proudly masculine? By associating it with promiscuity, of course, and casting the microsite with a caricature of machismo.
Have a look at the slick yet lowbrow interactive video experience Philips created to promote its Bodygroom hair removal unit for the elimination of back hair, underarm hair, (ahem) etc. It calls to mind another site MTV and Axe set up to promote the show Gamekillers. Both have fixed-frame video elements with characters speaking directly to the camera, all against a paper-white backdrop. Same target audience as well: horny guys 18 to something slightly older than 18.
I haven't determined what agency created the Bodygroom site, but wouldn't be surprised to learn it was Glue Society, which did the other. (via threeminds)

Kris Tapley and I go toe to toe in this week's post-Sundance, pre-PGA, SAG and DGA Oscar Talk.
Kris is sanguine about "Argo"'s PGA and Oscar chances, while I think "Life of Pi" and "Silver Linings Playbook" have more momentum; SAG could go for the latter in a big way, we agree.
We recap Sundance: Sony Pictures Classic pick-up "Before Midnight" is the only feature contender, we think; some of the terrific Sundance docs are bound to emerge as well.

Martinez Blasts NRCC for Attacking His Children
The National Republican Congressional Committee, in support of Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart, has mounted an attack campaign against Raul Martinez centered on this "Wheel of Corruption" TV spot. The direct mail aspect of the campaign elaborates on the charges by pointing out that Martinez's children have had government jobs, yet fails to point to out how there is corruption involved (click the image above to enlarge).
Martinez's daughter, for example, is an assistant city attorney for Hialeah Gardens. A different city than the one her father was Mayor of, and we're pretty sure, you know, you have to go to law school and all that first. So it's not like she just walked into the job with out being qualified.
Well the Martinez campaign has taken this as a direct attack against his family, and is set to release ads straightening the allegations out starring his children. It's smart in that it highlights Martinez's status as a proud father, while calling into question the accuracy of the attack ads and painting them as personal smears.
The transcript is behind the cut.
"My name is Raul Martinez, Jr. and this is my sister Aida. We know that political campaigns can be tough. But what is wrong in any campaign is for a politician to attack a candidate's family. Lincoln Diaz-Balart and his Republican friends have attacked us personally. The mailer you have received is out of line and untrue. Congressman, your ambition for power at any cost has taken you down a road of lies. Show some respect to our community and stop these lies."

i have been feeling reallly bad!! My back has been throbbing lately which isnt very uncomfortable but weird and noticable. and my sides of my stomach have been tightening up for the past few days! which is very uncomfortably but not consistant it just comes and goes!! i have 2 kids already if that makes any difference but i was induced with both of them so i am not familar with this at all!! i also woke up last night feeling nauseas... is this sings of labor or just wishful thinking??
labor coming please help

that's been me for two weeks... hopefully it means something for you.
Super Fabulous Most Awesomest Single Mommy of Arianna
well exept the nauseousness.. that just started yesterday for me... and that is supposed to be a sign labor could be coming...
Super Fabulous Most Awesomest Single Mommy of Arianna
I've heard that can go on for weeks... this is #3 for me too and this is the first time that I've had so many "real" contractions, so much body pain, etc. I've also been queasy and my heartburn is totally out of control. But my OB just checked me yesterday and nothing is going on yet. So, I guess I'll probably still make it the 2 weeks until my planned C... it's just not going to be a fun two weeks!!
I think it is just symptoms of the dreaded end. I am on #3 too and I have been so much more miserable with this one than the previous 2. Everything hurts and aches so much more. Ya never know though... It could be Labor songs, but I think labor songs can last a couple weeks!
Unless your symptoms intensify then you can probably just chalk it up to prodromal labor. I had it with my last pregnancy and it is NOT fun. Intense contractions that are regular and even consistent for up to four or five hours only to peter out without making any progress. Some pregnancies are like that. The only advice I can offer is to do the best you can to keep yourself comfortable - a warm bath usually helped me - and make sure you're drinking plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated.
