Lionsgate Stakes Claim in Roadside Attractions.
SANTA MONICA, Calif., July 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Lionsgate , the leading independent filmed entertainment studio, announced today that it has closed a deal to purchase a minority ownership stake in the independent theatrical distribution company Roadside Attractions LLC. The announcement was made jointly by Lionsgate's President of Theatrical Films Tom Ortenberg and by Howard Cohen and Eric d'Arbeloff, Co-Presidents of Roadside Attractions.

"With Lionsgate's investment in Roadside Attractions, we are celebrating Lionsgate's origins as a platform for distinctive and truly independent films," said Ortenberg. "The Roadside team has consistently shown taste and savvy in distributing pictures like AMAZING GRACE, LADIES IN LAVENDER and SUPER SIZE ME."
"Lionsgate's investment is a fantastic opportunity for Roadside Attractions and provides us with the resources to get to the next level," said Cohen and d'Arbeloff in a joint statement. "They started in our business, so of course they get it. Lionsgate's investment will allow Roadside to both continue hitting our "singles and doubles" such as our releases of SARAH SILVERMAN: JESUS IS MAGIC and BOYNTON BEACH CLUB, as well as to hit more home runs like AMAZING GRACE."
Having exited the IDP partnership earlier this year, Roadside has been ramping up its own in-house theatrical distribution, marketing and publicity staff to release its films. Lionsgate's investment is passive and Roadside will remain an autonomous entity, theatrically releasing 12 to 14 films a year. Roadside theatrical releases will be distributed through Lionsgate in home entertainment and all ancillary markets.
The deal was negotiated for Lionsgate by Wayne Levin, Executive Vice President, Corporate Operations, Marni Wieshofer, Executive Vice President of Corporate Development, Mark Holloway, Director of Corporate Development, Ortenberg and the law firm O'Melveny and Myers; and by attorney Greg S. Bernstein, Cohen and d'Arbeloff, on behalf of Roadside Attractions.
Roadside Attractions, started in 2003, is an independent film distribution company committed to championing films that entertain, delight, and enlighten audiences of all kinds. The company works with filmmakers to devise innovative marketing strategies that encourage audiences to see films that are not typical studio fare. Upcoming releases include: STARTING OUT IN THE EVENING, starring this year's Tony(R) winner Frank Langella; TRADE, a thriller about sex trafficking starring Kevin Kline; CHICAGO 10, Bret Morgen's part-documentary, part-animated retelling of the 1968 Chicago riots and trial; the Zen Buddhism documentary HOW TO COOK YOUR LIFE; RIGHT AT YOUR DOOR, an apocalyptic thriller about terrorists bringing the war home to a major American city; and Cannes Director's Fortnight hit CARAMEL.
Previous theatrical releases include: the Academy Award(R)-nominated SUPER SIZE ME; Independent Spirit Award winner THE ROAD TO GUANTANAMO; and such specialized box office hits as LADIES IN LAVENDER and WHAT THE BLEEP DO WE KNOW?. Roadside just had its biggest theatrical success to date with Michael Apted's AMAZING GRACE, which grossed $21 million domestically. Roadside Co-President Howard Cohen previously headed independent film at UTA for seven years and before that headed up acquisitions for The Samuel Goldwyn Company. Co-President Eric d'Arbeloff was an independent producer of such films as LOVELY AND AMAZING (distributed by Lionsgate) and TRICK.
Lionsgate is the leading independent filmed entertainment studio, winning the 2006 Best Picture Academy Award (R) for CRASH, and the Company is a premier producer and distributor of motion pictures, home entertainment, family entertainment, television programming and video-on-demand content. Its prestigious and prolific library of more than 11,000 motion picture titles and television episodes is a valuable source of recurring revenue and a foundation for the growth of the Company's core businesses. The Lionsgate brand is synonymous with original, daring, quality entertainment in markets around the globe.

I agree Knowledge.....I am a Christian and DO NOT hate homosexuals<quoted text>
I have tried to keep my mouth shut, but reading some of your posts, I felt like I must say something. I am a Christian,a follower of Christ. I do not hate homosexuals, or lesbians. I have friends that are... I do not agree with the lifesyle, it is wrong in my belief. I also believe that living with a man or woman before marriage is wrong, before the eyes of God. What someone does behind closed doors, I will never know. But, when they announce it and I can not walk away, I have to give my opinion... I do believe what God had put together man and woman, was his plan. Man can say anything they want about animals even go after the same sex. People say it is natural, but I have talked to child molesters, who have also said it just felt natural. I have also talked to serial murderers who also said it came natural. I am not saying being gay is like any of the other. People say that have no choice in who they are, but all of those people who murdered, raped and molested also said the same thing. People,(men and women) who live together, and millions are doing it, are breaking the commandments of God. I do not hate you or anyone else...I suppose that when it comes down to it, everyone has an excuse to do as they do and say it is okay. The gossiper down the street who talks about you behind your back will have to go before God, if they were making fun of you. Now if they came to you, face to face and spoke to you as I am doing, they are only trying to save your soul. I have to say it is what it is, the Bible is clear, man can try to change it, but it does say in Romans chapter one, if you would like to read it. Christians might want to walk around it, and not be offensive to you, and I understand that, but they are failing you. I will tell you that Jesus loves you, and it is not his will that anyone would die and go to hell. God bless you, and know I am not judging you, but just giving you the truth of what the Bible states. Everyone is entitled their own opinions, and when one doesn't agree, they are to believed as haters and that is not so.

Sargeant's crabapple or thornless hawthorn?
prism99April 27, 2006
I'm having trouble deciding. This would be to flank both sides of a fairly long driveway entrance. We are out in the country and it's pretty much prairie in that area.
According to the labels, the crabapples grow to about 10 feet tall and the hawthorn to 20 feet. Both spread about 20 feet.
Would it look strange to have a crabapple in front and a hawthorn behind -- on each side? Seems to me I would need 3 of something to look balanced, but I am really torn between the two trees and would like to somehow include both.
Any opinions appreciated.....

I am TOTALLY in love with your rock/wood wall/fence!!!
Great mirror art! Love it! And with a wall like that, you can add to it for many yrs! (if you wish). TFS! Jeanne S.
You did a great job of making them look like windows, hope you will paint the plywood that is backing the mirrors & seal edges well, plywood is glued wood & will come apart out in weather unless you seal edges & back with paint so moisture can't get in. Will make your wall really lovely & full of personality. Jan
Mscsippy, that was the first thing I thought of when I first read that someone put a mirror in their garden. But I keep reading time and again that people who have mirrors in their gardens never have a problem with the birds flying into them. The worst problem they have had are birds who preen in front of them. Birds must be smarter than we think.

The Stand is like that. You either love it or hate it, but you can't ignore it. Stephen King's most popular book, according to polls of his fans, is an end-of-the-world scenario: a rapidly mutating flu virus is accidentally released from a U.S. military facility and wipes out 99 and 44/100 percent of the world's population, thus setting the stage for an apocalyptic confrontation between Good and Evil.
"I love to burn things up," King says. "It's the werewolf in me, I guess.... The Stand was particularly fulfilling, because there I got a chance to scrub the whole human race, and man, it was fun! ... Much of the compulsive, driven feeling I had while I worked on The Stand came from the vicarious thrill of imagining an entire entrenched social order destroyed in one stroke."
There is much to admire in The Stand: the vivid thumbnail sketches with which King populates a whole landscape with dozens of believable characters; the deep sense of nostalgia for things left behind; the way it subverts our sense of reality by showing us a world we find familiar, then flipping it over to reveal the darkness underneath. Anyone who wants to know, or claims to know, the heart of the American experience needs to read this book. --Fiona Webster

|'The Stand' Movie Remake
Did you think the 1994 version was horrible in 1994? I definitely think it is aged now, but in my opinion I thought Gary Sinise did an excellent job as Stu. I did not like the actor playing Randall Flagg in any form or fashion though. Just some random thoughts. Thanks for posting.

Also known as the Western Isles, the Outer Hebrides is a blend of rugged mountain ranges and lush green valleys strung out some 130 miles over more than 200 islands. With its spectacular natural environment, the Outer Hebrides is ideal for walking, cycling and watching wildlife, and its superb Atlantic beaches draw surfers from around the globe. Fishing for salmon and trout, as well as sea angling, is highly popular here and, long-regarded as the heartland of Gaelic culture, the Outer Hebrides is also home to a vast wealth of artistic and musical talent. Regular programmes of events and exhibitions are held throughout the islands, celebrating different aspects of life in the Outer Hebrides, and music can be enjoyed in both formal and informal settings at any time of the year.

What about this idea to keep worms warm in winter?
I was thinking, after reading old posts, about ideas to keep worms warm in colder climates during the winter. Right now we only have one bin which is easily kept inside, but what if I wanted to go all out and have alot of bins. What would I do to keep worms warm through a Chicago winter. Then thought how about building a cabinate out of 2x4's and plywood, line it with insulation and then piping in your dryer exhaust air to it?
We do laundry with our family every day. So say if we made it big enough to hold about 5 bins stack was think an hour or 2 a day to get it warmed up from the dryer exhaust would make it nice an toastly in there for the worms.
This is a total hypothetical so not actually planning to do it. But never know it may be something considered later on. Do you all think this would work?
no - an hour or 2 of warm [not hot] and very humid air wouldn't do more than irritate the worms - any warmth imparted to a free standing small structure would be lost in a really short time, leaving that humidity to rot the structure and frost it up inside - be better to have a heating pade under each bin on a thermostat :)
all that's needed for outdoor worms in winter is a good size bin [not a bunch of small ones] surrounded with some insulating material [bales of hay work well] and covered with a good layer of dry organic material, like hay or leaves - the worms look after themselves fine
Here is a link that might be useful: an outdoor bin
I was thinking of building a plywood and styrofaom type bin in my barn. The barn is unheated. The chickens have their laying boxes in one part of the barn. Do you think I would still need to box it in with straw bales or hay bales? The chicken waterers DO FREEZE up in the winter, so it still gets mighty cold in that barn. Any suggestions on a barn box for the worms? HEIDI
I found out something in an experiment the other day. I had some already composted manure, leaves, and newspaper that had gone through the heat of composting. The temp. of the bed pretty well stayed anoung the temp outside which was around 60 degrees 50 night and 75 day. I took some fresh horse manure and put it on top of the bed and watered it in good. They next afternoon the bed went to 90 degrees and has been hovering around 85/90 every since then. been that way for 3 weeks now. may be a good way to heat the beds in the cold weather. bed is 4'x 4' by 2' deep and I used 5 gals of manure.
It depends on your winter. I've seen large piles of fresh, hot manure eventually cool and freeze in winter. I have read of insulated bins that can work even in the north although I'm unsure of aux. heating.
Basically I'm with Bill on this - the only reliable way is with a heat pad (I use the type used to start seed flats) or heat tape.
I can tell you that going all out with lots of bins can probably be accommodated indoors (your garage, or basement, or a combination of all those spaces). With plastic bins, a large amount of worms can be stacked in a pretty small space.
I had 40-18 gallon bins of worms in my garage & storage room last winter with great results.
Stack em up!
Yes. Here in Maine, I EXPECT any redworms that I add in the spring to die in my outdoor compost pile over the winter. No problem because my many indoor bins make lots of worms November through April.
This was a very mild winter here and for the first year in 6, I found some survivors in March. When the bin thawed I found some redworms on the surface that scattered when I opened the lid. Apparently the pile was not completely frozen (it is a black plastic circle about 4' tall by 3' diameter).
Redworms usually die when soil temps drop to near below about 35-40 degrees F. I don't know how hardy cocoons are (as far as low temps?), but the coocoons can hatch in 5-10 weeks. Possibly this is hatching rate slowed by cool temps (?). If so, then I suppose the cocoons that were laid before coldest period could be dormant and hatch when it warms up (up to 10 weeks later) and be growing in early spring.
What have others found?

Driving in Style: Promo Cars of the 1950s and 60s
The innovative and flamboyant car designs of the 1950's are now iconic. To whet consumers' appetites for the "latest thing," the Big Three American automakers (General Motors, Ford and Chrysler) began to release new models with slightly redesigned features every year. To promote the new vehicles, dealers distributed highly-detailed plastic models or "promos." Like their full-size versions, these colorful miniatures boasted streamlined tail fins and polished chrome grilles, reflections of the period's Space Age design and general prosperity. Given to potential buyers and their children, these salesman's samples are highly collectible today. Lent by Robert Reinhold and John O'Halloran, the promos in EAM's presentation will be on view in the McCormick House, also designed in the 1950s.

Okore is a professor of art at Chicago's North Park University and was the recipient of a Fulbright Scholar Award in 2013.

Let Children Be Children: Lewis Wickes Hine's Crusade Against Child Labor
A telling look at the industrialization of America, this photographic exhibition from the George Eastman House International Museum of Photography and Film in Rochester, NY reveals the circumstances that poor working children endured until legislation against child labor prevailed as late as 1938. Lewis Wickes Hine (American, 1874-1940) was a sociologist whose photographs captured his abiding concern for children, immigrants, and working-class people. He was hired by the National Child Labor Committee (NCLC) in 1906 to document the harsh conditions in which children worked. Hine spent ten years photographing in the canneries, coal mines, cotton mills, farms, and sweatshops common during the early 20th century. Through the use of photography, Hine and the NCLC gained the attention of government officials and aroused public sentiment against child labor practices in the United States.

The City Waites
The City Waites is a British early music ensemble. Formed in the early 1970s, they specialise in English music of the 16th and 17th centuries from the street, tavern, theatre and countryside — the music of ordinary people. They endeavor to appeal to a wide general audience as well as to scholars. They have toured the UK, much of Europe, the Middle East, the Far East and the USA, performing everywhere from major concert halls and universities to village squares. Collaborations include the National Theatre, the Royal Shakespeare Company and Shakespeare's Globe. They can be heard on several movie and TV soundtracks; they broadcast regularly and have made more than 30 CDs.
Lucie Skeaping[edit]
Lucie Skeaping sings and plays the baroque violin. Lucie is also founder-director of The Burning Bush, which explores klezmer (traditional Jewish music) as well as Arab-influenced music. The band includes Robin Jeffrey who plays Middle Eastern instruments. Lucie presents BBC Radio 3's Early Music Show and other programmes which showcase early music ensembles of the UK and other countries. Lucie is the author of the award-winning[citation needed] schools' book "Let's Make Tudor Music" and her "Musical Mystery Tour" visits numerous schools each year. Lucie's many CDs include "Home Sweet Home" (with Ian Partidge), a celebration of 19th century parlour music, and 'English National Songs'. Her book 'Broadside Ballads' won the Music Industry Award for Best Classical Music Publication 2006. Her latest publication is 'Who gave thee thy Jolly Red Nose?', an anthology of recorder music.
Douglas Wootton[edit]
Douglas Wootton is one of the few tenors who accompany himself on the lute. He also plays bandora, cittern, and tabor. Due to his promotion of the band they were voted the second-best Folk Band of the Year in the pages of Melody Maker. His down-to-earth approach sets the tone for the band.[neutrality is disputed] Douglas writes musicals for children.[citation needed]
Roddy Skeaping[edit]
Roddy was involved in the Early Music revival from its earliest days, working with the Academy of Ancient Music, David Munrow's Early Music Consort and The Consort of Musicke. He was appointed Leverhulme Research Fellow at Royal College of Music where he also taught the viola da gamba. As a composer he creates all the group's musical arrangements and has also written scores for the Royal National Theatre, Shakespeare's Globe, the Royal Shakespeare Company and several historical feature films.[citation needed]
Nicholas Perry[edit]
Nicholas Perry trained as a horn player at the Guildhall School of Music going on to study instrument making as a Crafts Council apprentice. He has performed and recorded for many London-based early music ensembles including the Gabrieli Consort, the English Baroque Soloists. The Taverner Consort and His Majesty's Sagbutts and Cornetts. He is a regular player at Shakespeare's Globe and the Royal Shakespeare Company and continues to work as an early brass instrument maker. He is currently the UK's only professional serpent leatherer.[citation needed]
Michael Brain[edit]
Michael Brain plays curtal, baroque bassoon, recorder, oboe and sings. He was a chorister at Westminster Abbey. He is related to the horn player Dennis Brain. On stage he gives spirited[neutrality is disputed] descriptions of how the instruments are constructed. He also works as a plumber.

Alabama Public Radio "3-peats" as AP's "Most Outstanding News Operation"
For the third year in a row, the Alabama Associated Press today named the Alabama Public Radio newsroom the state's "Most Outstanding News Operation." This prestigious award for 2013 follows the same generous honor in 2011 and 2012.
The winning entry included stories like news director Pat Duggins' coverage of the UPS cargo jet crash near Birmingham/Shuttlesworth International airport, and Ryan Vasquez' coverage of the Shelby County legal challenge to the U.S. Voting Rights act. Another focus was APR's year-long coverage of the 50th anniversary of key moments in Alabama's civil rights movement, including Stan Ingold's series on how Alabama cities are vying to become the center of civil rights "tourism." A newscast from Jeremy Loeb rounded out APR's winning entry.
"The news team and I are very grateful for this generous recognition by our industry," says Duggins. "Everyone works really hard to make this coverage possible, and it's so gratifying to see the whole team get to take a well-deserved bow for their efforts."
The Associated Press also named APR the winner for best regularly scheduled newscast. Finally, APR received three first place awards for reporting. The team's coverage of the UPS cargo jet crash near Birmingham/Shuttlesworth International Airport won for best news spot coverage and best hard news feature. The team also took first place for best documentary for "Civil Rights Radio," APR's half-hour program on the 1963 segregation protest known as the "children's march."

It is of course your choice to take the one, humorous, lighthearted post out of context in this entire topic and get all worked up over it.
Charles added a post in a topic: Shirley we'll have a release soon?It probably could have been but like I said we want to be sure the release process goes smoothly too. Betas and RCs are a different thing to a fully supported release
Charles added a post in a topic: Shirley we'll have a release soon?We do have a date for the fully supported release of IPS4 now. I'm not going to tell you in case something happens but we are pretty sure we will make it. There will be an RC7 though as we wrap up bugs. I'm sure you will notice the bug tracker is getting more sparse lately. We also want to do an RC7 as we need to test our internal release procedure that will apply to the "real" releases. That is why RC7 will take a bit longer than the others as it has to go through more process controls.
Charles added a post in a topic: RSS Feed - number of itemsI am curious as to why it matters? My understanding for RSS is that you get a certain number in the feed (5, 10, 20, whatever) and from there on the program you are using to monitor the feed keeps checking. So while you always have a limit in the feed you never actually miss anything because as new items are added it keeps track. I'm not sure how 10 vs 20 vs 1000 makes a different. Can you explain what you are trying to do?
