EDMONTON - Rolling kegs of beer down Cloverdale Hill is not normally part of a city branding exercise.
But that's a small part of what's being planned in Edmonton this summer as part of a new effort to understand what makes this city unique.
Residents are being asked to make something, anything, that's homegrown and makes Edmonton a better place. It's because that's what we're best at, said Chris LaBossiere, an entrepreneur and co-chair of the mayor's new volunteer task force addressing Edmonton's image.
"This is a place where there's no aristocracy. If you just come and one or two people can start something and build it into something phenomenal," he said.
"It's the one thing everyone can agree with. It's a great place to activate an idea."
"And Edmontonians are most proud of things that were grown here, whether they're businesses or the Fringe Festival," added Amy Shostak, artistic director of Rapid Fire Theatre and co-chair of the task force simply called Make Something Edmonton.
They're planning a launch party at Avenue Theatre March 21, and will be spreading the word to encourage everyone to think about what they would like to make happen in Edmonton this summer. More information is at makesomethingedmonton.ca.
As for the Edmonton Keg Roll, that's one early idea from group of young guys modelled after the cheese rolling celebration near the city Gloucester, said LaBossiere.
They'll substitute kegs of local beer for the cheese. "Then everyone stands at the top of Cloverdale Hill. They roll the kegs down and whoever catches the keg is the champion," he said. "They march the keg back up the hill, put it on the plinth and they take their shirt off.
"It's just a celebration of nuttiness, but it's a Make Something Edmonton project. Could be a ritual that becomes something, or it could just completely fail and that's OK."
Other ideas are more serious.
Block parties and winter patios to build community among neighbours, painting murals over ugly city walls — Dave Mowatt's idea to light up the High Level Bridge is certainly a Make Something Edmonton idea, said LaBossiere.
That idea has already attracted a crew of 25 volunteers who will be holding their own launch party within weeks, said LaBossiere. They are trying to raise $3 million in private and corporate donations to place LED lights all along the High Level Bridge for its 100th anniversary.
None of these projects are being funded with city money, but the task force raised $50,000 from private donations to award prizes at the end of the summer for the projects that worked the best.
The idea behind this effort came from former Edmonton Journal columnist Todd Babiak who interviewed Edmonton residents and found a widespread idea that Edmonton was an exceptional place to build something new.
Since September, he has been writing about the concept and many of these interviews on his blog Magpie Town.
LaBossiere and Shostak brought him on board and decided to focus the task force around this idea last fall.
The civic branding exercise won't just be about inspiring projects. They've got 50 volunteers signed up, and some of them will be working with marketing consultants to build on the idea of Make Something Edmonton. Eventually, they hope to have a slogan and images to sell what Edmonton really is to the world.
They'll report back to city council with their recommendations, and hopefully whatever slogan they find will resonate with people because it comes from the grassroots, said Labossiere.
Edmonton has an image problem — a disconnect between what people here love about the city and what people outside believe it's like. That can be fixed, but "it's going to take a groundswell of citizen belief and energy," he said.
That's what Make Something Edmonton is trying to achieve.

When choosing a lamp, think about what you are using it for. Different types of lamps have different functions. You'll also want to make sure the lamp is in proportion with your room and furniture. A small lamp on a small nightstand will be far more visually appealing than a large lamp on the same piece of furniture. To choose a lamp with flair, take into consideration the style of the room you are placing it in as lamps are available in various styles.
: An accent lamp is usually less than 20" and is great if you want to highlight a certain object or area in a room.
: Lamps which are also less than 20" and are perfect for lighting a specific work area.
: A table lamp measures between 25" and 32" and is great for general purpose lighting.
: A buffet lamp which can range from 27" to 32" is also a nice addition to any table.
: Perfect for dark corners there are different styles. These lamps usually measure 5 feet or more.
: The most common floor lamp is the torchiere which stands approximately 6 feet tall and is usually more ornate than your basic floor lamp.
: Perfect for adding some light to a hallway or stairway.
: Perfect if you like to stick to basics.
: For those with more modern tastes.
MIX amp; MATCH
: If you regularly like to change the look and mood of the room, you'll find plenty of lamps that work with various lamp shades.
: Woodsy? Nautical? Show your interest with lamps.
: The best thing about lamps is that when you get tired of them all you have to do is change the shade to give them a stylish makeover. When adding a new shade, take into consideration the measurements of the lamp. Shades should be at least as wide as the widest point of the lamp body and at eye level, the bottom of the shade should cover the bottom of the socket. You'll find that the shade has three dimensions - bottom diameter (width across the bottom of the shade), top diameter (width across the top of the shade) and the third measurement represents the shade's slant height (distance between the top and the bottom of the shade). Keep in mind that an oversized shade may cause a lamp to easily tip over.
Once you have all the measurements of the shade jotted down, you'll find a wide variety of toppers to suit your taste. Besides coming in a range of colors, you'll also find shades in a variety of shapes, fabrics and textures. It's easy to go from a basic faux leather or linen shade to a textured fabric or beaded one. As for the shape of your shade, you can go from bell to cone to square to rectangular, whatever your heart desires.
: When it comes to bulbs you can't be dim-witted unless you want the shock of your life. Make sure to note the wattage rating of a light fixture and never exceed this number. The higher the wattage of a lightbulb means the higher the output of light and heat.
Keep in mind there are different types of bulbs and make sure to purchase the right one for your lamp.
Medium base bulbs are your standard incandescent bulbs that vary from 15 to 150 watts. These bulbs produce a soft yellow-white light.
Compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFL) differ in shape, size and electrical contact. These bulbs are small and have bent tubes with all the electrical contacts at one end. They can be used in a standard medium-base socket. CFLs use less electricity than incandescent bulbs and produce a light that is closer to real sunlight.
Halogen bulbs give off a bright white light and have a longer life. Always use a clean rag to handle a halogen bulb as oils from your hand can reduce the life span of the bulb.
Fluorescent bulbs offer a true light, last much longer and are more energy efficient
: Take into consideration the fitter when buying a lamp. The most common fitter is a harp. Believe it or not harps aren't always melodic instruments, when it comes to lamps they are the metal frame that holds the shade over the base of the lamp and can be used to raise or lower the shade. Other fitters include the clip fitter where the fitter clips directly to the bulb and the uno fitter which screws on to the socket.
: There is also a variety of switches out there. Which one you choose depends on the lamp and what works best for you. Keep an eye out for simple on/off switches which can be rotary, push or rocker, three-way switches, pull chains, dimmer switches which can take lighting from very low to bright, or an in-line switch which is located right on the cord.

Like nails sticking out of would-be construction sites, China's so-called 'nail houses' remain standing as long as their owners refuse to make way for development—sometimes becoming symbols of resistance.
Several 'nail houses' stood isolated by ditches in Guangzhou, south China's Guangdong province, earlier this month. Work was suspended after some owners didn't sign a deal with the developer.
In December, authorities demolished this house that had been standing in the middle of a new main road on the edge of the Zhejiang province city of Wenling. Its owners had been the lone holdouts in a neighborhood that was flattened to build an access route to a new train station.
A woman looked after a house in a demolition area in Qingdao city, Shandong province, in May 2011. Authorities commonly pressure residents to agree to make way for development.
A house stood in the middle of the construction site for an apartment development, in Hefei, Anhui province, in December 2010. Some extreme measures used to pressure holdout owners may include cutting off utilities or beginning to demolish when residents are out for the day.
The owner, bottom right, of a partially demolished 'nail house' collected water in Kunming, Yunnan province, in October 2010. Real estate is one of the big drivers of China's runaway growth in recent decades.
Rapid development has run into objections from many of the hundreds of thousands of residents who have been forced out to make way for new buildings. This owner returned to his home amid a construction site in Qingdao city, Shandong province, in August 2010.
A building stood in the middle of a construction site in Hefei, Anhui province, in February 2010.
A 'nail house' stood in Chongqing municipality in February 2009.
A woman walked past the last house standing amid a construction site on the outskirts of Nanjing, Jiangsu province, in October 2008.
A house stood alone in Guangzhou, capital of Guangdong province, in November 2007.
A house whose owner refused to accept a compensation deal from a property developer was surrounded by continuing excavation at a construction site in Chongqing in 2007.

Great Review by Eleanor
Price Value Quality Got one of these for my youngest, and both he and his older brother played with it. It's a bit difficult for really little kids to grasp, but I found with mine that he was still entertained if someone else was using it to make noise- and bonus that the someone else was my older kid! Can't ask more of a little wooden toy that it keeps two kids busy. (Posted on 1/2/11)

Is Your Dog's Rough Play Appropriate?
Wow I found this extremely interesting and love to see smart people put stuff like this into actual words. I am serious, I love it! I would just like to add that multi-dog play fighting is not always a bad thing. Each dog takes turns playing the "victim," although I am not sure why and I am no expert (just someone who lives with a lot of dogs), but I would be eager to read the "why" others may perceive and I must get this magazine!! Here is a video of a lot of the play maneuvers mentioned in this article. Here are actual PitBulls@Play: http://youtu.be/HxtJWy9UQNM Is there anytime when one should intervene? Say when one dog is, assuming, 'playfully' and happily body pinning while over exuberant mouthing of fore-limbs and ignoring communicative signals of 'play' that is getting too rough by the pinned. Your article is interesting but seems to imply that overly rough play is benign and we can do more harm intervening and simply allow predominant one sided roughness to course out. I have and will always intervene when it's blatant bullying that going on. Bullying by 100% forceful body pinning or neck pinning/holding, tactfully biting hard on lower fore-limbs and ignoring whines/yelps of the pinned. To say this doesn't happen or is not the case is contrary to my experiences..is it play?..perhaps..is it acceptable play..definitely not. When the pinned get up and walk with noticeable lameness is the benchmark that 'play' was allowed to escalate beyond good intention. I believe play can transform into blind prey mode..that must be addressed. All the show - real play is all much show and exaggeration - of growls and exposed teeth and false attacks, rolling, side slamming and such notwithstanding. I was glad to read your view on the acceptable/unacceptable aspects of play-fighting. I have been searching for sites to address my current dilemma. I have been a Bullmastiff owner (in pairs, male & female) for over 20 years. They have always enjoyed play-wrestling, and always known when to stop. Resident dog has always kept incoming dog in place. Hi Viv, I'm not a trainer but am very involved with my dogs, one being a therapy dog. We experienced a similar situation when we first adopted our male dog (pit-pointer mix) from the shelter. At 1 yr. old he had never learned how to play with other dogs. He was a bull in a china shop! He didn't know how to go around people on trails, he'd go right through me, with me ending up on the ground, or would slam into other dogs until he learned that was rude. The shelter thought our female (pit-Lab) would put him in his place, but she was too kind and we thought way too tolerant of his shenanigans. Having said that, even from the beginning he never harmed her. With lots of work and showing Dom what our expectations were and stepping in often to tone down his play (he did make her squeal in the beginning because his neck bites were too hard and to this day he bites her legs but now she bites his), he has become an awesome dog who now gets it. Your description reminds me exactly of how Domino acted the first few months. Inca was so tolerant. She's my love! We would watch her closely and if it looked like he was bugging her, we would separate them or have a time out 'til he calmed down and could play more gently. Hopefully with lots of work, your 13-mo-old dog will start to understand what pleases you and figure out that it's a lot more fun to have a playmate than one who runs away and avoids him. The good thing about Dom is he was never aggressive in any manner, just out of control because he had no training other than the little the shelter had given him. He's a wonderful 3+ now and it's so fun to watch my two dogs enjoy each other's company. He also goes out 3 times a week with a company called Trail Dogs that takes up to 10 dogs in a van to legal off leash hiking areas, so he's very socialized. His sister goes other days to give them a break from each other. He is not dog park material, though. The one think lacking is his understanding of very submissive dogs. He's a rambunctious player and it's best for him to have rambuctious friends at this point in his life. His play manner can intimidate shy dogs, which is not appropriate. And I never allow him off leash around small dogs. I fear he will step on them. I would be interested to know if the dogs who played one-sided games with a mate, played the same way with other dogs. If so, did aggression ever result? IOW were they practising 'anti-social' behaviour with a partner that didn't mind, therefore learning poor skills with others? Thank you so much for this insightful and well-researched article. It has put my mind to ease, after having other dog owners insist that my dog was playing too roughly and teaching their dog bad behaviours when obviously their dog was still desperate to play. It seems logical to me that dogs need to work out their own levels of appropriate play and most dogs are quite verbal when that level has been reached. Great help! I have two "St. Pyrenees" so I want to know what to expect as they geet larger. My big fear is if they get tangled in leashes or ropes. Will they know enough to recognize something is wrong and stop playing, or will they start to think the other is a real threat and escalate into fighting. The thought of stepping between two 130 pound fighting dogs to untangle leashes isn't good. I try to keep them tied far enough apart to eliminate the possibility but I still worry. TF We had a little three pack of dogs. One was a bully breed/boxer mix and she was the most alpha dog I have ever seen. She could just walk around the dog park and other dogs would get out of her way. The other two were GSD/Doberman and boxer/rottie. However, when the three played, the alpha dog was always "it". The GSD X would grab her by the scruff, and the boxer/rottie would gnaw on a hind leg, and she was dragged and thrown and chewed on and she always came back for more. People would walk by, and they'd be horrified, because we were laughing our heads off. Such cruelty! We had to explain that 1) the one who appears to be getting beaten up has a huge smile on her face and 2) she's the alpha dog. They are all gone now, but we got countless hours of entertainment from them. Very interesting article. I have two toy dogs, both bitches. I had read so much about the problems that can arise if two females take against each other, that I monitored them closely when they were young, and intervened if play inside the house seemed to be heading towards bullying or getting over excited. The end result is that they play very well together - noisily and with lots of play fighting outside, very quietly and with lots of mouth wrestling inside. I am more experienced now, and would probably let things run on a bit longer, but it seems my anxious intervention made little difference except to teach them that if play got too noisy "Mum" might stop the fun, so it was better to play quietly! (There is a very quiet game of Keep Away involving a knitted Christmas Pudding going on as I type...) What an excellent article! Having two pit mixes that fit the "sound like they are killing each other" category when they play, I have noticed that in 100s of bouts of play only once did my female get a scrape on her face. I'm still not sure whether it was a branch from the bush they were tussling under or my other dog's tooth or nail. I know I've been the recipient of very leery looks when they play like that with each other at legal off-leash areas or on trails, so I try to discourage that sort of play outside the home so people don't freak out, especially other dog owners whose dogs do not play in that manner. I've also noticed that neither dog plays that intensely with other dogs, only each other. This article makes me feel good about my dogs' play with each other. Thank you. Excellent article. I have two females who I adopted from a shelter together at roughly one year of age. They did not know each other before that. When they play they sound ferocious: they snarl, they show their teeth, snap their teeth and they mount each other constantly. In fact the signal to start play is often one dog growling at the other or snapping their teeth. I have had these dogs for over 4 years now and their play has never turned into a real fight. I know a couple of people in the dog park think I let them go too far -- one man even tried to separate them knowing they were both my charges. I know my dogs -- they love to play like this; it makes them happy. Why should I deprive them of doing what they love? I have 2 bulldogs one from a puppy and another adopted. My puppy Mia (almost 2 now) loves to play and is almost always the one who invites it by bowing, barking and tag! (runs by and nudges). Jersey is adopted. The 2 were best friends right from the start. The share toys, bones, food etc...my question is Jersey does not temper her bite during play and after a year Mia now has several scars on her neck and shoulders. They have never fought and Mia never gets angry and always go back for more. I just found this article by coincidence but it's was just the thing I was looking for! -Carol We have a 9 month old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (female) and just got a new 11 month old Cavalier (also female). The 9 month old is a bit bigger than the 11 month old (who is smaller and has a more delicate tempermant). The 9 month old always wants to play - she exhibits a strong "herding" aggressive like behavior. Wrestles with her, but while doing so, tugs on the 11 month old's ears and tries to grab (bite) her legs. The 11 month old likes to play if it is more gentle, but lately the 9 month old is playing rough all the time - to the point that our 9 month girl runs to us with this "save me" look. She pesters the 9 month old when going down steps, which makes her too scared to continue down the steps. How can we get the "bully-herder" Cavalier to play more gently? I have been walking my my 18-month Cocker Spaniel with my friends 2 Tibetans. They are brother and sister and four months younger. Recently my dog is totally dominating the female with rough play to the extent that she is hurting her and cornering her. I feel compelled to intervene and my dog completely ignores me while I am trying to get her back on the lead. My dog is always good when we out with other dogs, however, she is too excited when we meet up with these. I almost wish her dog would go for her so that we can all enjoy the walk together. Any ideas please? I have recently got a 6 week old bitch staffy, I already have a 4 year old bitch staffy. They play constantly. The puppy is very full on with bites where as the oonejust knocks her or pins her down. I'm worried if allow this the pup will grow up aggressive or my older dog wil snap one day. Any advice Despite the article promoting friendly play I would intervene when any biting is full on. I have the same situation and my puppy is in the hospital today with its front top lateral incisors nearly broken off by the older dog who bit him on the upper jaw putting puncture marks on the nose and nearly biting out his incisors. I would be happy to send you a picture of where our allowed play fighting led. Not pretty--For the record my puppy was smiling again shortly after the incident but he will have gapped teeth for life and I have a $400.00 bill. ( I know the article also mentions not allowing play with Toys present but they wont know the difference if you are out of the room. This was with a toy while I was away and they had never done this before. Better safe than sorry. What a great article! It's nice to read one that's research based yet written in an accessible style, and it gave me heart to know that you've not seen play fighting turn into real fighting between dogs with established relationships. We have two young female Siberian Husky rescues (16 months and 14 months). They're both well socialized with other dogs, but definitely sound like real "haters" when they play and are alarming to those who aren't used to that sort of play style, but they appear to love it! One is 25% heavier, uses that weigh differential to her advantage, and seems to always feel she's got to assert dominance. The other is dainty, but incredibly fast and agile, and though she can hold her own pretty well, she doesn't seem to mind being the submissive one as long as she can entice the other (or us) to play. They play to exhaustion, then often lay down by each other, happy and relaxed. We do notice that our bigger girl will gang up on our daintier one in multi-dog situations (like at dog parks) or really seem to bully her in an unwelcome way once she gets home if she's been in a multi-dog situation that day where she's had to submit to other dogs a lot (as if she's got to reassert her role as top dog). That does concern us, as we don't want their relationship to sour or a problem to escalate... and though working on recall training, as with a lot of huskies, it's a big challenge, so we aren't always able to intervene as effectively as we'd like. I'll look for your other article mentioned, as it sounds like it might be helpful and shed more light on those situations. Thanks again for writing this. Very interesting stuff! THis sounds exactly like our dogs. We have a 6 month old and a 5 month old. Both pit bulls who we rescued at the same time. They get really rough and it makes me worry sometimes but this article and your comment sound pretty similar to my dogs, however, both of my dogs have scratches all over them and I'm not really ok with that. My dogs fight play like this. I try to keep in mind that if no one is yelping, it's OK. They do enjoy a nice play fight with soft neck bites. A rough real fight between them is obvious (loud, stressful, and out of control) and I break them up. The real fights seem to be slowly coming less and less often. Good. My concern is taking the new dog to the dog park while he is still exhibiting these behaviors. If he is even fake-biting a strange dog, either the dog or the owner may take it wrong. How can I be sure he will know this behavior is OK with his housemate, but not with other dogs? I was so glad to see your page on dog behavior when it comes to play because I got my dog from a shelter I've had him for 4 weeks now and for the last two weeks I've been taking him to dog parks. He is 2 yrs. old and at first I adopted him and his brother but his brother was very aggressive and dominating over him and dominating over me. His brother also ate his food so he was the smallest of the two; therefore, I returned his brother to the shelter and kept him. His personality started coming out, he gets along well with children, people in general, and other dogs. The only thing that would get him to fight is when a dog try and mount him like his brother constantly done, and they would constantly fight because he wasn't going to let his brother dominate him. For two weeks at the dog parks meeting different dogs he has never been aggressive; however, today at the dog park he ways playing with a dog larger than him but way younger than him the dog was only 8 months old and he is 2 yrs. old, he played with the 8 month old as he usually did with older dogs but I did notice one difference and that was he kept jumping on the dog then he would bark to be chased and when the dog chased him they were having a lot of fun then they stopped and my dog who is 2 yrs. old kept barking as he normally does when he plays with the older dogs but this seemed to turn into a fight that took me and the other owner time to stop they both were grawling and barking and biting at one another and when we finally where able to pull them apart they settled but it seemed like they wanted each other again. The only problem with it is that it looked too much like a fight to me and the owner and my dog initiated it by barking. For now I'm afraid to take him back to dog parks even though they have been good for him but he doesn't come to me when I call him so that's not good. I still don't know what to do but at least by reading your page I see that my dog still may be OK. Thank you. My 11 week old akta pup is bigger than my neighbors King Charles spaniel. He plays pretty rough with him even the the kcs isn't crying, pup is biting/holding on to his ear and lip. As he gets even bigger this seems like it could cause a lot of tension among the two.

Measuring a mere 13/16 inches (20.4mm) the lens is 2mm shorter than the SEL16F28
With a 20mm focal length (35mm equivalent 30mm) and a bright maximum aperture of F2.8, the SEL20F28 is ideal for a variety of subjects from landscapes, interiors to casual snapshots.

Reminds me of "Willow," and the line "Want to breed"?
For the first time I ever I saw "Das Boot", the 4.5 hour directors cur version. WOW What a mind-blowingly good movie. Awesome tension, phenomenal acting even when badly dubbed...but WOW what a depressingly brutal ending to it...such a downer...I wasn't really expectign a happy ending, but maybe a triumphant one...8Pstill, an amazing film and I can see why so many film-makers put it on the pedestal it's on. Fricking amazing film...

*steps forward in a superman outfit*I will save us!*commense porn music*
Have you read Man of Steel, Woman of Tissue? Either Pournelle or Niven wrote it.Basically, Superman's sperm also had superpowers. Any women who he bedded would die of peritonitis (sp?) and every time he whacked off, there would be thousands of immaculate conceptions.*giggles*
hahaha, no I never read that.

Good little story.
The two movies I rented last, and still have, are Curse of the Golden Flower and Days of Glory, both foreign films. Days of Glory was an emotional ride of a war film, and I can see why it was nominated for an Oscar. I'm going to watch Golden Flower next, love the epic martial art romances.
I just saw Kung Fu Hustle a few days back. I laughed and laughed and laughed... :)
Saw one of the sweetest most romantic movies EVER a couple of nights ago: 3-Iron, a Korean movie.The male lead doesn't have a single line but manages to completely draw you in.I must get a copy.
In the Mood for Love. I've got to see it again ... interesting.
Blast from the Past: KRULLWhat a god-awful rip-off of Star Wars!But it had some interesting production values and set designs as well as one of the first appearances of Liam neeson.So cheesy, but so much fun to watch and laugh at...with some work it could have been actually been a decent movie but it was made in that era of cheesy-ass sword and sorcery movies...8P
if you haven't yet:everybodyWATCH the movie "Ong-Bak" it is the absolutly most amazing piece of martial arts-no special effects,no wires,no nets
I saw his second US release "the Guardian" which had about as thin a plot as you can get, but DAMN the Marti Action was fast and furious! I will definatley check out Ong-Bak, kind of feel obligated since it's a Thai film and that's where I was born (No I'm NOT Thai, my parents were in the Peace Corps.).
who needs a proper story line?:Dalso liked the fact that they used highly untypical music for the fight scenes
I loved both those movies. Damn, that guy can move pretty.
When the Last Sword Is Drawn by Yojiro Takita.another film about the end of the Edo period and the decline of samurai. a very good one, though.
Mmmmm samurai Films..8)Saw "The Bourne Ultimatum" last night...eh movie. Decent action but way too much kerky camera work etc...plot was kinda slim. Entertaining enough, if you sit WAY back in the theatre...not sure how it topped the box-office...
I'm with you Ren. I do not like the jerky camera work - makes me seasick.
Recently Seen Japanese/Chinese Films:"Swordsman 2" - Toshiro Mifune as Miyamoto Musashi. GREAT look at the Samurai culture and duelling mentality. Has a great scene involving a sword-polisher at the beginning."Dragon Inn" - A fun and light-hearted Wire-Fu Romp that has very few serious points but is entertianing as hell. And the END fight scene is absolutely priceless!"Sword of Doom" - A mood-piece to be sure with a too-sudden ending that leaves a LOT of unanswered questions...like the film was never completed. But had some great actign form the guy playing the villain/protagonist of the piece as he slowly devolves into madness. But it does show very clearly the highly-deceptive swordsmanship technique the main character uses. Involves him seeming to loose focus and stare at the floor. Lulling the opponent into a false sense of security. Also has an Awesome fight scene with Toshiro Mifune when he's mistaken for someone else by a gang of would-be assassin's and slaughters all but one of them. Up to the end it's a great movie, but that ending sucked.
"Shoot'em Up"This is NOT a movie for those who don't like action movies. This is not a movie for those who are easily offended and can't take a joke.This IS a movie for fans of hard-core action movies. Possibly one of the funniest and most amazingly well-done action movies to come along in a long time. Action was WAY over the top and beyond in terms of silliness and fun, though it actually DID have soemthing of a plot...not much of one, but it was there and all of it with great, witty dialouge and exchanged witticisms.Clive Owen playing a hard-core tough guy with a Carrot fetish is well-balanced by Paul Gimatti's intellectual and educated hitman with a penchant for violence. Even Monica Belluci was well-placed for the aprt she played though it was minor by comparison. Heck she was there mostly for her Cleavage though I'll not deny her acting ability, it's just not stretcehd a lot in this. Though I'd have to say that of all of them Paul Gimatti probably had the most fun with his part, but then again, playing villains is always fun...8)One of my favorite scenes:Mr. Smith: What's up DocMr. Hertyz: "Oh you ARE a Wascally Wabbit"Mr. Smith *crunches on a carrot*...maybe you had to see it...8)VERY fun and throughly entertaining movie!
Ren, i think you confounded something in your review... Toshiro Mifune in a wire-fu production would have been a most interesting combination, though.[ September 12, 2007: Message edited by: rms ]
? I was referring to two different movies, only Dragon Inn was Wire Fu and he only had a smallish part in Sword of Doom.
yes, but Toshiro M. in Swordsman 2...?anyways, Sword of Doom is awesome. the ending is absolutely perfect, not only because it reflects the ending of the novel, but also the hopeless situation of the main character in my opinion.
Yes, Toshiro Mifune was in Swordsman 1,2, & 3 as Miyamoto Musashi...course that title may be based on bad interpretations of the Japanese movie titles but it's definately him, he is kinda distinctive...8)While the end of the book/movie may have been clever, I don't like it. I don't like unfinished stories...just the need for closure I guess...I enjoyed it up to that point however...the technique was still amazing to watch, can't always properly visual the sword-techniques no matter how flowery a name they give it.[ September 12, 2007: Message edited by: Ren ]
ah, you meant the Samurai trilogy by Inagaki Hiroshi, and i thought about the Swordsman trilogy from early 90´s Hong Kong cinema. quite a difference. everything´s clear now.[ September 17, 2007: Message edited by: rms ]

The Logic of Long Distance
You'll ruin your knees!
""...the truth that someday, you will go for your last run. But not today—today you got to run." - Matt Crownover (after Western States)
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
Any other responses?
Runners run.
#4. And No, gmap does not take this into account when calculating distance. Neither does RA. And No, it does not really make much difference to include this in the distance calculations. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Doing the math:
Jeff, "but wasn't thrilled with the fact that the data is only available for the US, and seems to be intermittent in its reliability."
More Cowbell!
When you're on your deathbed, you won't be wishing that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will be wishing that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

Exploring the connection between physicality, health and artistry, Danielle Goneconti has been teaching for the past 10 years. Her goal is to pass along tools for daily balance-- maitri and malleability of mind through the body. Faith in the vehicle of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga developed under Richard Freeman in Boulder, Colorado and grew, absorbing the common perspective of Ashtangis worldwide- most especially those in New York, Maui, Encinitas and Berlin. This traditional school captured her attention for its simple cultivation of both technical accomplishment and enjoyment, results concordant with the lessons of her childhood mentor, a protege of Isadora Duncan. The depth and philosophical nature of the research involved seemed to make sense to her, as well as the ingeniously simple instructions that come as a result. Participating in the performance art of New York City, instructing a wide spectrum of students in the mechanics of pilates, gyrotonic and contact improv, steeping in the Feldenkrais method and delving into Tibetan medicine prepared her to feel at home in the heart of lineage teaching. She delights in the vantage point offered by headstands for bridging cultures of ritual with those of analysis, with those of rock and roll. Interested in the movement of ideas, Danielle holds a degree in political theory from Columbia University where immersion in yogic philosophy came from Gandhi scholar Dennis Dalton, Buddhism professor Robert Thurman and painter Archie Rand. She employs Ayurvedic principles to awaken the sensory system toward feelings of connectedness and contentedness, via new choices and direct experience. She loves working with every type of practitioner, embracing the method of "individual attention in a group setting" offered by the Ashtanga framework- striving always to offer an environment where learning can be felt as a two-way street, the speediest of conduits. She believes that self-research into the tangible feedback networks of the body can enlighten the mind.

YNN highlights the coolest and newest apps for your cell phone or mobile device in the twice-weekly segment "App Wrap." YNN's Adam Balkin filed the following report.
StillShotIt's a dilemma we just about all face — a precious, funny or wild moment is happening before your eyes. You whip out your phone to capture it, but do you take video or a photo? "StillShot" makes it easy to do both.
First off, capture the event with video and then open that video in the app. It will then analyze what was captured frame by frame, so that the user can swipe through and pick the wanted frame. Simply hit "save" and that frame is turned into a still shot and automatically transferred over to the phone's photos folder.
Those who love to get shots of an exact moment when an action is at its peak are guaranteed to always get the shot without taking a photo.
"StillShot" is right now an app for iPhones for 99 cents.
SpellTowerAs if you needed another super-addictive word game to eat up all your spare time, now there is "SpellTower," which is often described as a mix between Boggle and Tetris.
There are several modes. On the simplest level, a player simply makes words based on letters on tiles that are touching, and as those blocks disappear, the player gets points for the word. The bigger the word, the more points it is worth.
Where it gets hard to put down is when two players face off via Bluetooth in "debate" mode. As a player's tiles disappear, they fall into the opponent's screen and vice-versa. A player wins when the opponent's screen fills to the top with tiles, kind of like how Tetris ends.
"SpellTower" is an iOS-only app for 99 cents.

I agree with you, very good concert!!
The superb FTD release, LIVE IN L.A [BOOK & CD] as become one of my favourite FTDs.The 1974 concert just gets better and better the more you play it and features one of the best versions of "Steamroller Blues" I have heard! James Burton's addictive blues guitar playing cuts through brilliantly.
When first released many fans complained about the bass heavy sound - but playing it through a new Apple nano I NOTICED MUCH IMPROVED SOUND with a tighter bass and more instruments and voice heard.
Listen to Kathy Westmoreland's backing vocals on "Why Me Lord" absolutely amazing!Set the EQ settings to treble boost when you play the concert -which will compensate for the bass and crank this gem right up!
Led Zeppelin witnessed a fantastic concert that night and we are very lucky to have this release.I have yet to read a review on EIN I hope there's one soon because it deserves it.
I agree with you, very good concert!!
Taking Care of BusinessTil we meet you again, may God bless you, Adios.

About this flight
The carrier: Vueling
Vueling is a Spanish budget airline with several hubs and destinations throughout western Europe.

Nice destination tally in an appealing brand. Friendly and energetic cabin crew and staff.
Recently found itself in financial trouble. Cramped planes and very little legroom.
* Carry-on: One piece of carry-on luggage, not to exceed 10 kg.
* Checked: Up to 23 kg of luggage at the rate of €10 per bag. Over this, you will be charged €10 per kg. Note that you must pre-register your checked luggage in advance of your flight. Otherwise, a penalty fee (€20) applies for each unregistered bag.
* Please visit Vueling's website for more information on its baggage policy.
You can quickly and easily choose a seat once you've booked your flight on-line. "XL" seats with more legroom are available from €10 to €13, depending on the duration of the flight.

more...Departure: Venice, Italy - Marco Polo (VCE)
Venice Marco Polo Airport is an airport named after the Venetian traveler Marco Polo.
Venice Marco Polo Airport is located 12 kilometers north of Venice by land, and 10 kilometer by water. The airport is situated in Tessera, a "frazione" of the commune of Venice.
•Rail: Venice-Mestre railway station is connected to the airport by the ATVO Fly Bus.
•Bus: Two bus options are available to get you between the airport and central Venice. The ATVO airport shuttle bus travels to and from the Piazzale Roma, near the Santa Lucia train station. Buses leave from the airport every hour. The trip takes about 20 minutes and costs €3. For more information, visit the ATVO website. The ACTV bus no. 5 is a local public bus. It costs €1 (plus an additional €1 for every piece of luggage) and takes 30 to 45 minutes. Buses depart every half hour. Tickets can be purchased at the newsstand inside the terminal from the bus stop.
•Boat: You can always arrive directly at Piazza San Marco in nautical style via the Cooperative San Marco/Alilaguna. For €12 you can get to town by sea courtesy of a large shuttle boat called the "motoscafo." The hour-long boat journey between the airport and Piazza San Marco makes intermediate stops at Murano and the Lido a dozen times each day. Boats zoom to and fro from 6 a.m. until 12 a.m.
If your hotel is not within a stone's throw of San Marco, make a vaporetto connection here. For more information, visit the website.
•Water taxi: We can't in good Cheapo conscience recommend that you get taken for a ride on one of the prohibitively expensive water taxis. This 20 to 30-minute option from the airport will set you back €90 for between one and six passengers and €105 for seven to 10 passengers. The taxi will go as close to your hotel as it can.
•Taxi: Radiotaxi are available at the airport, as well as shared taxis. A land taxi from the airport to Piazzale Roma will run about €30 plus €.55 per piece of luggage. From there, you can pick up a local vaporetto.

The Perfect Dress, 4.18.2013 |
Reviewer: Taiga (sedona, az) |
The Sweetheart Wrap Dress is the perfect dress. The length is great, the arms hit just right and the neckline is the most flattering. I am busty and the dress is designed so that you can adjust how much cleavage you choose to show. Genius!!!!! |
Winner, 2.20.2013 |
Reviewer: Deb (Homosassa, FL) |
As a petite, plus-size woman it has been challenging to find designer clothes that flatter my voluptuous curves. I bought this Sweetheart Knit Wrap Dress in Navy in a size 0x and it's a winner. I also purchased the Valentina Illusion dress in a size 1x and it fits perfectly. I consider myself triangle shape since I am 5'3" and 195 lbs with a 38D bust. I rely on reviews and love the real curves models. The bottom of the dress skims over my knees, but it isn't too long. This dress showcases my assets and disguises the flaws. It is sexy, but not over-the-top. Go for it and I bet you'll love it too. |
Fine Dress, 1.23.2013 |
Reviewer: Larisa Morozkina (Nizhniy Novgorod, Nizhniy Novgorod) |
This is a true Kiyonna dress. Everything about this dress is magnificent - the color, fabric, style, length and decollete. I highly recommend it. |
Red va va voom, 9.26.2012 |
Reviewer: Pumba (, ) |
As a lot of the other reviewers have said, this dress is made for people with curves. It is flattering, young and fun. It does show quite a bit of cleavage, but is able to be adjusted slightly to cover up a little more, depending on how you tie it. Definitely recommend this if you want a fun and flirty dress. |
Full Figured & Fabulous at 50, 7.5.2012 |
Reviewer: Scheri Manson (Edmonton, AB) |
I ordered this dress in a 1X, per the size chart. This dress is probably the most flattering fit I have ever worn. The neckline is flirty and brings attention to my upper body, love that! As this is a wrap dress you are able to decide just how tight or loose you would like to wear the dress, which is excellent for all us full figured gals. This style is very flattering to someone like myself who has a bust to waist ratio under 4 inches, plus it gives us a waist! The fabric is a light jersey making this a very cool and hand washable dress. I have not had the chance to wear this dress YET as the function I purchased this dress for is mid-July, 2012, but I will happily post a picture. |
Give this one a shot!, 6.18.2012 |
Reviewer: Dianne Rizzo (Searsport, ME) |
I am fairly busty and wanted to hide my unattractive body features, so I took a chance with this dress and I am SOOO GLAD that I did! The neckline is very flattering, even though it shows a good bit of cleavage. I am fairly modest; however, I didn't feel like I was overly exposed. I thought the fabric might be too clingy, but it was not. The style emphasized your finer points while down playing figure flaws. I usually look matronly in most dresses, but this dress makes me look and feel attractive. Take a shot and try it! |
OMG I love this dress!!!!, 5.3.2012 |
Reviewer: Nell (Houston, TX) |
I'm very particular about the fit of my dresses, but this dress is perfect. There's nothing I would change. Color - navy, size - 4, so the arms would be large enough (I normally wear a 24), and length - just below my knees (5'4). The dress is a nice thickness. I want to order the black dress also. |
Love it!, 12.29.2011 |
Reviewer: ingrid haugen hestflaatt (oslo, oslo) |
This dress is amazing! It fits so well, hugs in all the right places, and it has a whole lot umpfh! Yes to this dress! |
Very cute, but a bit tight in the belly, 12.21.2011 |
Reviewer: Berry (Washington, DC) |
I was nervous about the neckline in the dress because my bust is only 42 inches, but the 1X fit perfectly. I loved the neckline! On me it was sexy without being too revealing. I actually ordered the Poetic Wrap Dress in black at the same time and it was twice as low cut. Unfortunately, the material was thin, unlined, and the torso was cut slim. It molded itself unflatteringly across my belly. I have a 38 inch waist and I think the 2X would have been less tight on my stomach, but the top would've been too large at that size. I think this would look better on someone with a fairly flat torso, or who was willing to wear spanx. |
So Sexy!, 12.9.2011 |
Reviewer: Lisa (Drumheller, AB) |
When I bought this dress I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I had another dress by Kiyonna that I loved; so I was willing to give it a shot. My fear with this one was that it looked a little clingy and I thought I would have to encase myself in foundation wear from thigh to chest. When it finally arrived I was more than a little anxious about trying it on. WOW! It fit beautifully!! And frankly I haven't felt this sexy in an outfit in ages; and I was only wearing my regular bra and knickers! This weekend is my Christmas party for work which I'm attending with my new guy and I can't wait for him and everyone else to see me strutting in wearing this hot number. Thank you Kiyonna for yet another successful design! |

"It's a winning organization. Coach (John) Calipari is a winner. It's a true basketball program. The Wildcat Launch is right across the street from the gym. You can go in there 24 hours a day. There's a curfew. It's almost like a business. If you really want to play basketball, that's the place to go. Gordon is applying the recruiting lessons learned by his older siblings Drew and Elisabeth to his own process. "Drew made a poor decision his first time around and great one the second time," he said. "My sister made a good one to Harvard. I've been able to see the dos and don'ts of the recruiting process and it's allowed me to really open my eyes to a lot of things. Kentucky Making Late Inroads For Aaron GordonJan 22, 2013 5:01 PM EST
