In acclaimed animator Hayao Miyazaki's The Wind Rises, Jiro (voice of Joseph Gordon-Levitt)—inspired by the famous Italian aeronautical designer Caproni—dreams of flying and designing beautiful airplanes. Nearsighted from a young age and unable to be a pilot, Jiro joins a major Japanese engineering company in 1927 and becomes one of the world's most innovative and accomplished airplane designers. The film chronicles much of his life, depicting key historical events, including the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, the Great Depression, the tuberculosis epidemic and Japan's plunge into war. Jiro meets and falls in love with Naoko (Emily Blunt), and grows and cherishes his friendship with his colleague Honjo (John Krasinski). Writer/director Miyazaki pays tribute to engineer Jiro Horikoshi and author Tatsuo Hori in this epic tale of love, perseverance, and the challenges of living and making choices in a turbulent world. The English-language cast also includes Elijah Wood, Stanley Tucci, Jennifer Grey, William H. Macy and Werner Herzog. Academy Award nominee for Best Animated Feature.

12 Years a Slave is based on an incredible true story of one man's fight for survival and freedom. In the pre-Civil War United States, Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor, Dirty Pretty Things), a free black man from upstate New York, is abducted and sold into slavery. Facing cruelty (personified by a malevolent slave owner, portrayed by Michael Fassbender), as well as unexpected kindnesses, Solomon struggles not only to stay alive, but to retain his dignity. In the twelfth year of his unforgettable odyssey, Solomon's chance meeting with a Canadian abolitionist (Brad Pitt) will forever alter his life. Also starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Paul Dano and Paul Giamatti, 12 Years a Slave is directed by Steve McQueen (Shame). Winner of 3 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Supporting Actress (Lupita Nyongo). Official Web Site Owen Gleiberman's Entertainment Weekly review... |
The dramatic comedy Philomena tells the incredible true story of one mothers search for her lost son. After becoming pregnant as a teenager in Ireland in 1952, Philomena was sent to a convent to be looked after as a "fallen woman." When her baby was only a toddler, he was taken away by the nuns for adoption in America. Philomena (Judi Dench) spent the next fifty years searching for him in vain. Then she met Martin Sixsmith (co-writer Steve Coogan), a world-weary political journalist who happened to be intrigued by her story. Together they set off for America on a journey that would not only reveal the extraordinary story of Philomenas son, but also create an unexpectedly close bond between them. It's the compelling story of two very different people, at different stages of their lives, who help each other and show that there is laughter even in the darkest places. Directed by Stephen Frears (The Queen, Dirty Pretty Things, High Fidelity). Official Web Site Stephen Holden's The New York Times review... |
Teenagers didn't always exist. Before the idea was invented, there was no second stage of life: you were either a child or you went to work as an adult. Matt Wolf's kaleidoscopic Teenage is a hypnotic rumination on the genesis of youth culture from the end of the 19th century to the first half of the 20th, giving voice to young people in America, England and Germany—from party-crazed Flappers and hip Swing Kids to zealous Nazi Youth and frenzied Sub-Debs. Inspired by punk author Jon Savage's book, Teenage creates a living collage from a treasure trove of rare archival material, filmed portraits, and diary entries read by Jena Malone, Ben Whishaw and others. Set to a shimmering contemporary score by Bradford Cox (Deerhunter), Teenage is a mesmerizing trip into the past, and a riveting look at the very idea of "coming of age." Official Web Site |

Lars von Trier's much-anticipated motion picture event Nymphomaniac will be released as two full-length feature films. Volume I is the story of Joe (Charlotte Gainsbourg), a self-diagnosed nymphomaniac who is discovered badly beaten in an alley by Seligman (Stellan Skarsgård), an older bachelor who takes her into his home. As he tends to her wounds, she recounts the erotic story of her adolescence and young-adulthood (portrayed in flashback by Stacy Martin). Volume I also stars Shia LaBeouf, Uma Thurman, Christian Slater, Sophie Kennedy Clark, Connie Nielsen and Udo Kier. Nymphomaniac marks von Trier's follow-up to his critically acclaimed film Melancholia, and is his third consecutive collaboration with Gainsbourg. A groundbreaking filmmaker for more than two decades, von Trier's other films credits include Antichrist, Dogville, Dancer in the Dark and Breaking the Waves. Note: Nymphomaniac contains graphic depictions of sexuality to a degree unprecedented in a mainstream feature film. No one under 18 will be admitted. Official Web Site |

Re: The 9/11 Conspiracy
Not gonna read all this. Gonna be a lot of repeat of the same thing in different words and I don't care to hear that right now. Ok seeing how this hurt the government MUCH MUCH MUCH more than you care to believe. I don't see how they set it up.
The Twin Towers was a very very strong contributer of money. Destroying costs more than it was making I'm sorry. Also seeing how the Pentagon was attacked it doesn't seem logical that the goverment would hit something that would DIRECTLY cost them money.
Don't even try and start about gas problems. That is Bush's poor choice and the rest of the government backing him up. He never wanted to drill for oil in our country and he would pay a lot of money from the people to get gas. Also say what ever ya wan't about Bush. If he cared he would say. He is a typical Republican and wants money just like EVERY SINGLE FUCKING ONE OF YOU. His actions for money are yes, a bit extreme, but you have to take into mind there has been much worse.
There is no conspiracy here. If so then gas prices would have never seen a decrease. Quit thinking that shit like this is a conspiracy. It is really pathetic and it lowers my view of people. One thing I want you to do if you think of this that way is grow the balls to talk to the families that are missing hard working loyal family members working in the towers. Talk to the dedicated firemen that GAVE, yes I said gave they didn't have to do it, thier life to save people. Talk to thier families and see what they say to you. I would tell you to get out of the country if you live in the US and if you don't I would beat the shit out of you and remind you that I have freedoms and I care about the people that fight and HAVE fought for it.

In fact, a PCMark05 benchmark score of 3,464 is well over twice what an Atom N270 chip can achieve, and it blows the Core 2 Solo SU3500 chip used in the X340 out of the water (it scored 2,013). It's still far from fast, but, together with 4GB of RAM, the UX30 is able to run several applications at once without grinding to a disk-thrashing halt.
The UX30's 3D performance isn't quite so good. The integrated Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics provided by the Intel GS45 chipset are merely adequate, scoring 698 in 3DMark06. This isn't really a problem for a laptop like this, since it's enough to enable transparency in Vista's Aero interface and maybe for some light, low-resolution 3D gaming.
As we pointed out earlier, a fixed internal battery shouldn't be a problem if battery life is up to scratch, but we were disappointed with the UX30's result of 2 hours and 13 minutes in Battery Eater's intensive Classic test. Battery life proved better in the more forgiving Reader's test, at 3 hours and 50 minutes, but you won't get much more than 3 hours of use with Wi-Fi enabled when away from the mains. That's not great for a laptop of this kind, particularly one that costs this much.
There's plenty to like about the Asus UX30. It's better value than the Dell Adamo and has a better specification than the MSI X340. At £1,000, though, it's not that much cheaper than the MacBook Air and, while it's a fantastic-looking laptop, it's nowhere near as lust-worthy as Apple's offering.

Wobbuffet Village (Japanese: ソーナンスのむら Sonans Village) is a small village that appeared in Wobbu-Palooza!. Almost every citizen of the village owns a Wobbuffet.
Wobbuffet Festival
- Main article: Wobbuffet Festival
There is an annual Wobbuffet Festival which celebrates all Wobbuffet. During the festival, it is against the law to start any Pokémon battles. This law comes from the idea that Wobbuffet are pacifists and do not fight. Rather, they can only defend themselves if they are attacked. This causes distress when the village falls victim to three vandals. They use Hitmonlee, Machoke and Primeape to cause havoc to the village.

Over the past few years, Brazil's economy has been one of the strongest emerging markets in the world. With several upcoming catalysts and strong macroeconomic trends, Brazil appears to be the place to be invested. But which stocks are the best to take advantage of Brazil's strong economy? Vale S.A. (VALE) appears to be a rising star for Brazil and below are 3 reasons why investors should consider investing in it.
Company Profile
Vale S.A. is a Brazil based metals and mining company. The company services are divided into four segments which include bulk material, basic metals, fertilizers and logistic services. Vale is also active in joint venture investments. The company operates in more than 38 countries and focuses on global diversification.
Reason #1 To Invest - Brazil's Strong Economy
Recently, Brazil has certainly been an interesting economy. It has had signs of promise and also signs of frustration. But with upcoming catalysts and rising consumer confidence, the economy appears headed in the right direction.
Brazil will play hosts to both the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Summer Olympics. Both of these events should provide the country with increased infrastructure development which should provide dividends to all Brazil focused companies, even companies in the metals and agriculture businesses. Recent analysis predicts that Brazil can expect to bring in roughly $3.5 billion from the World Cup and $5 billion from the Olympics.
Another reason for enthusiasm about Brazil's economy is the rapid growth of the middle class. Over the past decade, more than 30 million Brazilians have climbed out of the lowest socioeconomic group and into the middle class. This growth should eventually fuel increased demand for goods and services, and further transform the Brazilian economy.
Additionally, and specifically to Vale's benefit, Brazil is extremely rich in natural resources. The country has a vast supply of precious metals, oil and agriculture products. It is also one of the largest producers and exporters of iron ore and aluminum.
Reason #2 To Invest - Vale's Fundamentals
2012 was an extremely challenging year for companies in the minerals and metals space. Because of the heightened uncertainty for the global economy, there was a general decline in the prices of minerals and metals. The only exception was gold. Iron ore was especially volatile during the third quarter of the year.
However, although Vale was impacted by this slowdown like all other companies in the industry, the company did manage to continue to achieve solid performance. Vale's EBITDA was $19.1 billion, the third highest in the company's history. This was much less than the number in 2011, $23.2 billion, but was entirely due to the decline in the prices of metals and minerals.
The company also distributed dividends to shareholders of $6.0 billion. This was the second largest dividend ever paid out by the company and among the largest for the industry. The company also recently announced that it will pay out a minimum of $4.0 billion during 2013. This adds a nice security blanket for dividend investors. Even in light of the industry's volatility, Vale has promised to pay out at least 2/3 of what it paid in 2012.
The company's iron ore and pellet shipments reached an all-time high of 303.4 million metric tons during the year. The iron ore production during the fourth quarter was also the biggest ever for a fourth quarter. The company's hope was that this would amplify the v-shaped recovery of iron ore prices that took place in mid September 2012.
Vale's revenues in the fourth quarter 2012 were just over $12 billion, rising 9.5% from the third quarter 2012. This was the result of higher prices, driven mostly by iron ore. Additional sales volumes contributed about 1/4 of the revenue increase.
So in light of a challenging global economic slowdown and depressed metals prices, Vale still managed to perform historically well. They also correctly managed their iron ore production which contributed to a stellar fourth quarter sales effort.
Reason #3 To Invest - Growth Strategy
Vale has had a stellar growth strategy over the past couple years. The company has focused on organic growth opportunities, and diversifying globally and through various products. The company has done well to branch out into both investment-based demand products such are iron ore and coal, as well as depletion-based demand products, like fertilizers.
Additionally, the company continues to focus on developing new products, such as the Carajas Serra Sul S11D.
This project will provide an increased supply of iron ore at lower costs and higher quality. The end result should create more value and help to strengthen Vale's position in the global market.
Vale also commenced two new copper projects in 2012. The projects are called Salobo and Lubambe. Salobo is a copper with gold operation, and is in the first quartile of the industry cost curve. Lubambe is Vale's first copper mine in the heart of rich African Copperbelt. This area has the largest growth potential in the world for copper supply expansion.
While all of the above sounds like the perfect investment opportunity, Vale does not come without its own set of risks. Brazil is an emerging market and as such, is prone to immense spikes in volatility causing all investments to swing wildly. Combine the potential country risks with the industry risks. Precious metals and minerals are prone to large price swings depending on the state of the global economy. It's incredibly difficult to predict and as such, investors need to exercise patience with these types of investments. It may be prudent to wait for pullbacks in prices before looking to enter a position.
Currently, there are large risks across the global economy. It is unclear for how long the risks will continue and what impact they will have on the metals industry.
Although there are risks, both on a macro level and industry level, I believe Vale is poised to outperform its peers in the industry. Should the global economy pick up and metals prices get back on track, Vale should prove to be one of the best investments in this space.

It's a bold statement on my part to call a recipe the best. While I always attempt to uncover the "ultimate" version of a dish, it is virtually impossible to conclude whether something is or isn't, in fact, the greatest in the world. Personal taste, in addition to the countless other external factors that effect a recipe, can all swing the pendulum of perfection either way.
But when it comes to Southern biscuits, I'd like to think I have a pretty decent grasp of the qualities a good one should possess. I worked at a Cracker Barrel for goodness sake, home to the airiest, most angelic of them all. (And no, the following is not their recipe. This is soooo much better.) And just in case you were wondering, here are my personal requirements for an unparalleled biscuit:
1. A superior biscuit, to me, is featherlight and fluffy as a cloud. It should spring to the touch, crumble when cupped, and melt away the minute it hits your lips.
2. I want—wait, scratch that—I demand big flavor. A biscuit needs plenty of salt, and a biscuit isn't good if it must be slathered in condiments to be edible. Hot-from-the-oven, it should be a divine sensory experience all on its own.
3. Last but not least, a biscuit needs butter. Lots and lots of butter—I'm talkin' inside, on top, and everywhere in between. Trust me here, this is definitely not the time to be holding back on the calories.
Are y'all with me?! You see, biscuits are practically in my blood. One of my fondest food memories involves my six-year-old self, devouring a Tyler's all-butter biscuit in the backseat of my parents' yuppy station wagon. We were headed to church, and I vividly remember the look on my mother's face when she saw streams of butter dribbling down my chin, grease splattered across my pressed cotton jumper and formerly-white tights. Boy was she mad. (And lets just say it wasn't the first time, and definitely not the last!)
I've spent many years since trying to recreate the perfect Southern biscuit—the one that requires a fistful of napkins; I've even blogged about the search here (and here and here). I've found pretty good recipes, and less-than-decent ones, but none that ever pulled me from the power of Pillsbury. At least until I discovered Shirley Corriher, the apple of my biscuit-lovin' eye. More importantly, I discovered her "Touch of Grace" Biscuits. Deemed a "genius recipe" by the smart gals at Food52, it was unlike any biscuit recipe I had ever seen. Which is why after reading it, I headed straight to the kitchen to see what all the fuss was about.
Let's just say my prayers were answered—no other biscuit recipe will pass through these oven doors again. Seriously, they are that good. So good, that you just want to devour them all by yourself, straight from the oven, afraid if you take them any further there won't be any more left to eat. And with that, my friends, I leave you with the best. biscuit. ever.
P.S. Pair with sausage gravy if you're feeling particularly indulgent.
As much as I love the original recipe, I couldn't leave well enough alone. I have made significant changes to suit my tastes, which are reflected in the version below. To see my detailed notes, scroll to the end of the recipe. To view the unaltered version, follow the Food52 link below.
Source: Inspired by Shirley Corriher's "Touch of Grace" Biscuits via Food 52
Yields: 6 biscuits
2 cups spooned and leveled SELF-RISING flour, preferably White Lily
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
3/4 teaspoon table salt
1/4 cup very cold shortening
2 tablespoons very cold unsalted butter
2/3 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup plain ALL-PURPOSE flour, for shaping
Melted butter, for brushing
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Grease a cast iron biscuit pan (or use a cake pan according to Corriher's original recipe).
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the SELF RISING flour, sugar, and salt. Using the large holes on a box grater, grate the shortening and butter into the dry ingredients. Toss gently to evenly distribute the fats. Stir in heavy cream and buttermilk until the mixture becomes a very thick, wet batter (cottage-cheese texture, according to Shirley.)
Spread the ALL-PURPOSE flour into a shallow pan. Roughly divide the batter into 6 dough balls. Turn each ball around in the flour, dust off excess, and pat into the biscuit slots (there will be one empty one).
Bake the biscuits until they are light golden brown, about 17 – 20 minutes. Generously brush the hot biscuits with melted butter. Allow to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then remove with a small offset spatula or knife. Get 'em while you can!
Recipe notes and alterations:
— Reduced amount of sugar from 1/4 cup to 2 tablespoons
— Increased amount of salt by 1/4 teaspoon
— Added 2 tablespoons butter to the recipe in addition to shortening
— Reduced amount of buttermilk
— Changed baking equipment from cake pan to cast iron biscuit pan
— Included my personal method for grating cold butter & shortening into dry ingredients

AMD Unveils Innovation-Packed Series of ATI FireGL™ Workstation Graphics Accelerators
Industry's first 2GB frame buffer, exclusive AutoDetect software, and unified shader architecture deliver more than 300% increase in 3D performance
SIGGRAPH, San Diego, Calif. -- 8/6/2007 --
At SIGGRAPH 2007 today, AMD (NYSE: AMD) announced five new high-performance ATI FireGL™ workstation graphics accelerators for CAD, DCC and medical imaging professionals. The ATI FireGL V8650, FireGL V8600, FireGL V7600, FireGL V5600, and FireGL V3600 graphics boards are based on the next-generation ATI graphics processing unit (GPU) with an innovative unified shader architecture featuring up to 320 individual stream processing units. These new boards deliver acceleration of DirectX® 10- and OpenGL 2.1-based professional applications resulting in increased performance of more than 300% as compared to the previous generation of product.
"The rich feature set of these new ATI FireGL boards represents AMD's industry-leading GPU engineering excellence and provides unprecedented power for design professionals," said Rick Bergman, senior vice president and general manager, AMD Graphics Products Group. "AMD's ability to continually offer graphics innovation at the high end, while delivering full-featured products at the entry level reflects our strategy of enabling the ultimate visual experience for professional designers and those who consume their content."
Several key features distinguish the new series of ATI FireGL workstation graphics boards. An industry-first 2GB of on-board memory enables engineers and designers to interact with larger datasets and more complex models. The ATI FireGL unified shader architecture maximizes graphics throughput for today's engineering and animation software. During performance tests, the ATI FireGL V5600 demonstrates more than 300% the performance of the ATI FireGL V5200 running the Viewperf 9.0.3 UGS Teamcenter Visualization Mockup (tcvis-01) benchmark test.
AMD's unique AutoDetect feature instinctively optimizes the graphics driver based on the user's specific software applications even while running multiple programs simultaneously. With AutoDetect, end users are no longer required to manually adjust application specific settings, even when toggling between different applications.
"ATI FireGL products from AMD are known for bringing key new advancements to the workstation graphics market," said Jon Peddie, principal, Jon Peddie Research. "With first-to-market features like 2GB memory and AutoDetect, AMD should continue to gain traction in the high and ultra-high end segments of this market to compliment their solid showing in the entry-level and mid-range."
The rigorous, application-specific certification process of ATI FireGL workstation graphics accelerators ensures a level of reliability that graphics professionals expect and trust. All ATI FireGL Visualization series products utilize a unified driver, which simplifies installation, deployment and maintenance, while support for Microsoft Vista enables future compatibility. Native multi-card support maximizes output flexibility by enabling larger displays, higher resolutions and the ability to drive four screens from two graphics cards in the same workstation. In addition, stream computing applications can leverage the massively parallel processing capability of the GPU for compute-intensive tasks such as physics, structural analysis and financial modeling.
"Given the new realistic rendering effects built into SolidWorks 2008, AMD's release of the new ATI FireGL™ workstation graphics accelerators gives SolidWorks customers the power and advanced rendering capabilities to boost their productivity and creativity," said Efrat Ravid, director of Marketing and Alliances for SolidWorks. "The innovative unified shader architecture and larger frame buffers of the ATI FireGL accelerators can remove past constraints when working with large data sets, while enabling real-time rendering of more complex assemblies."
"With a dizzying amount of graphics horsepower, support for the latest versions of DirectX and OpenGL, plus optimizations for SOFTIMAGE® | XSI® software, the ATI FireGL workstation graphics accelerators can help our customers meet their tight deadlines," said Mark Schoennagel, 3D evangelist and hardware certification manager at Softimage. "In a production environment, when 3D artists or technical directors are running a variety of software tools, the ATI FireGL accelerator automatically configures to provide maximum compatibility with SOFTIMAGE|XSI 3D software for screaming graphics performance, and an automatically streamlined production process."
"We look forward to working with the new ATI FireGL family of products. AMD has a history of innovation and delivering excellent value and performance," said Rob Hoffmann, senior 3D product marketing manager for Autodesk Media and Entertainment. "Professional content creators will appreciate features that increase visual fidelity and performance. We expect Autodesk Maya and Autodesk 3ds Max customers to see a significant performance increase using the next generation ATI FireGL graphics cards."
The new series of ATI FireGL workstation graphics accelerators from AMD are expected to begin shipping in September 2007 and will be available from workstation OEMs, system integrators and channel partners worldwide.

I forgot to add that seeing that the Bantu languages came from this area, it is a reason for me to be very excited to go. While, I was in Cameroon, I learned how to speak one of hundreds languages from there. The other language that I can speak is a Semi-Bantu language. Those who migrated from South Africa brought the Bantu language to Cameroon.
Also, in school, i learned that the tectonic plates that moved the different continents to be where they are today can be traced back in the mountain regions of South Africa. I know that we will be going inside one of this mountain, so I am very excited to see and experience this.

Battleship Cathy
Battleship Cathy is on a mission to find a romantic partner in a casual social setting!
4.54 / 5.00 21,214 ViewsThis movie was made to emphasize three points:
1) If you could do stuff like this in Resident Evil 0, Rebecca would be a lot more useful.
2) Zombies take ridiculous amounts of handgun bullets to kill.
3) Mentos still rock.
Thanks to everyone who voted and reviewed, and to Tom for putting it on the front page for a week!
I love how these mentoes parodies were everywhere back in the day. Truth be told I still think they were kind of funny.
Resident Evil combined with this commercial is a win in my book

Potash Corp. 2014 Forecast Trails Estimates After Price Drop
(Updates with closing share price in seventh paragraph.)
Jan. 30 (Bloomberg) -- Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc., the world's largest fertilizer producer by market value, forecast 2014 earnings that trailed analysts' estimates after the price of its namesake crop nutrient fell 24 percent.
Profit will be $1.40 to $1.80 a share, the Saskatoon, Saskatchewan-based company said today in a statement. That compares with the $2 average of 28 analysts' estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Potash Corp. also cut its estimate for 2014 global shipments. The shares fell as much as 5.5 percent.
Potash Corp.'s "projections for its sales and for the global market would seem to indicate that demand response from farmers to lower potash prices has not yet been robust," Greg Barnes, a Toronto-based analyst at TD Newcrest Inc., said today in a note to clients.
Buyers of potash, a form of potassium used to increase crop yields, deferred purchases in the second half of 2013 after OAO Uralkali, the world's largest producer, quit a sales accord in July with its Belarusian competitor and announced plans to boost output. The rift has undermined prices and raised concern among investors that the market will remain oversupplied.
Potash Corp. said global potash shipments this year may rise about 5 percent to 55 million to 57 million metric tons. In December, the company gave an estimate of 56 million to 58 million tons.
China Accord
"Although we believe conditions are supportive for record potash demand, achieving such levels will largely depend on consistent buyer engagement," it said in today's statement.
Potash Corp. dropped 1.9 percent to C$34.89 in Toronto. The shares have declined 19 percent in the past 12 months.
Uralkali earlier this month agreed to sell 700,000 tons of potash to China for $305 a ton, 24 percent less than the price it agreed to before it exited the joint supply arrangement with Belaruskali that controlled 40 percent of global exports.
Potash Corp. sold potash on average for $282 a ton in the fourth quarter, 27 percent less than a year earlier. Potash Corp. also produces nitrogen and phosphate crop nutrients and said prices for both also fell during the period.
"Expectations for the whole industry are pretty low," Jeffrey Nelson, a St. Louis-based analyst at Edward Jones, said today in a telephone interview. "This is really shaping up to be a transition year for producers."
Canpotex Sales
Fourth-quarter net income dropped to 26 cents a share from 48 cents a year earlier. Profit excluding severance costs was 31 cents a share, less than than the 32-cent average of 25 estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Sales declined 6.2 percent to $1.54 billion, topping the $1.41 billion average estimate.
Potash Corp. expects to sell 8.2 million metric tons to 8.6 million tons of potash this year. Canpotex Ltd., the offshore marketing agent for Potash Corp., Mosaic and Agrium, agreed to sell 700,000 tons of potash to buyers in China in the first half of this year, according to a Jan. 24 statement. Saskatoon-based Canpotex didn't disclose a price.

And lastly... You mentioned that Elena was not effected by last nights events. She MOST CERTAINLY was! It stared when they first arrived at the prom & she saw the picture of her & Matt and then the pic of her & Jeremy. She actually had to remove herself from where they were standing so that she wouldn't feel anything. And then when she danced with Stefan... Oh my gosh. That evil, vampy bitch did not expect that. From the moment Stefan moved his hand up the back of her neck until the time that SHE, yes, she almost kissed him. She was effected. Everything she said was a lie. Her heart DEFINITELY felt it but she's so strong & detached right now that she didn't want to admit to herself or anyone else that she was effected and that's why she said "What heart". I give the episode 5 stars! I loved it.
The scenes between Rebekah & Matt were perfect! When she listed his qualities and told him he was so beautifully human... Can anyone say upcoming super couple. We all know that Rebekah has been interested in Matt for a while. She redeemed herself last night and Matt recognized that.
Bonnie is NOT stupid for not recognizing that Jeremy was really Silas. She JUST found out that he was dead. She's greiving and she's a witch. In a town like Mystic Falls it is absolutely possible that a Jeremy ghost or something similar could appear to her.
Apparently I was watching an entirely different episode than everyone else because I LOVED it. Mystic Falls needed a little bit of love & passion and that's exactly what we got.
Can I just say before getting into anything else that the scene where Stefan was trying to make Elena remember their love was one of the sexiest things I have ever seen on TV. Could it be because I'm invested in the Stefan/Elena relationship and want them to be together? Probably... But the chemistry between Nina & Paul is undeniable, intense and BEAUTIFUL.
Moving on. I'm shocked that people were not impressed with the episode. How could anyone think that Tyler returning was really Silas? It WAS Tyler. No question. I teared up when I saw him standing there. I was thrilled for Caroline! A little dissapointed that we didn't get to see a Klaus/Caroline moment at the end but if the show gave us everything we wanted when we wanted it then there would never have been a season 2,3,4& upcoming 5.
I smell a super couple coming between Rebekah & Matt and I LOVE it!!! When she listed his qualities & told him he was so beautifully human, it was perfect! I mean we all know that Rebekah has been interested in Matt for a while regardless of other things that have happened. She redeemed herself last night and Matt recognized that.
Bonnie is NOT stupid for not recognizing that Jeremy was really Silas. She JUST found out that Jeremy was dead. She loves him and she's a witch. It is ENTIRELY possible that he could really appear to her. She wanted to believe that it was Jeremy because she misses him. When it first happened I thought it was Jeremy.
Also, you mentioned that Elena was not effected?!?!?! She MOST CRETAINLY was! It started when she arrived at the prom & saw that picture of her & Matt. Then the pic of her & Jeremy. She had to remove herself from where they were standing because of it. And when she danced with Stefan she absolutely WAS feeling it. From the time he moved his hand up the back of her neck until the time that SHE, yes, SHE almost kissed him. Everything she said was a lie. Her heart remembers and she WANTED him but she is SO strong & detached right now that she doesn't want anyone to know that it effected her so she said "What heart". I give it 5 stars & an A+++.
Bonnie needs to go. I was rooting for Elena to kill her. She has the same face for every emotion. Awful actress. So annoying. Dislike Jeremy & Bonnie together. I MISS JER! A Vampire Episode is almost perfect when you have both Salvatore's, ELIJAH, JEREMY & Klaus; all it needed was Alaric.
Also, anyone else notice this show is SO MUCH BETTER when Elijah is in it?
Also, I feel like I was jipped as a Delena fan. I know they have to keep the triangle alive (but do they really?) but Elena was with Stefan for a long time. She was so infatuated with him and they had several really romantic scenes when they were together. Then they build up her and Damon for years and have them have one scene that is ruined by the sire bond. I think they could have thrown that in later... given us maybe at least two episodes where they were passionately in love. Are these two actors NOT really in love? Would that NOT make for good on screen chemistry? Oh, and not to mention that vampires are supposed to be even more passionate. This was a let down. The way that Elena and Damon immediately started acting like buddies and greeting each other like brother and sister while looking for the cure (boring) was a huge disappointment. Writers, what are you doing?
I think that the bottom line is that I no longer care if I miss an episode of this show. I am forgetting that it is on and uninterested to see how things will play out. I feel like the build up to this cure has been a whole bunch of filler episodes. The previews make it look like something will finally come to a head and then nothing does. I feel like the one good moment of this season was when Elena screamed and shut off her humanity. I felt for her in that moment because she was truly broken, which is what all of these shows usually build up to. I was excited to see what would happen next. But several episodes and 2 week BREAKS later, I am bored by Elena. I was bored by Elena and Damon's passionless relationship before this happened and I am feeling screwed as a viewer that now she will somehow not be with Damon by the end of this season for the sake of the overdone love triangle.
This used to be my favourite show. I would look forward to watching it every week, now it just boring infact if it wasnt for Klaus and Caroline I would have given up by now. The originals pilot looks amazing and if I was Julie Plec I would be worried about losing viewers of the TVD to the originals should it get picked up. Im also hoping Caroline decides to study in New Orleans next season.

New products on display at the American International Toy Fair, held in N
Mahwah, N.J. — Sharp Electronics recently notified specialty A/V dealers handling the jointly administered Sharp/Pioneer Elite TV line that it will not be offering any new models under the premium brand this year.
Jim Sanduski, Sharp strategic product marketing VP, told TWICE that the company has been unable to acquire a key component part needed for the advanced TVs, which has forced it to put plans on hold for any new products for the foreseeable future.
He added the company has sold through inventory on models from the prior year.
"Due to the unavailability of a component, current 60- and 70-inch Elite LED TVs (model numbers PRO60X5FD and PRO70X5FD, respectively) have been discontinued and are no longer available," Sharp confirmed in a statement Monday.
Whether or not the Elite TV brand returns with new models in the future remains to be seen.
Sharp gained access to the Elite brand for advanced LED LCD TVs after taking an equity position in struggling Pioneer, which has long used the Elite trade mark for its high-end home electronics products.
Sharp holds 30 million shares in Pioneer (a 9.2 percent stake) and is that firm's largest shareholder.
The Japan Times reported in April that Sharp was looking to dispose of its Pioneer stake to help finance debt payments due this September. The story, citing unnamed "sources," said the two companies intend to keep collaborating and Pioneer will retain its 0.8 percent position in Sharp.
Sharp-made Elite TVs offered some of the deepest black levels and highest contrast ratios yet seen from LCD technology.
In shootouts, the screens had rivaled even advanced plasma sets, including Pioneer's discontinued Kuro models that some still rank as the benchmark by which flat-panel TV picture performance is judged.
This TWICE webinar, hosted by senior editor Alan Wolf, will take a look at what may be the hottest CE products at retail that will be sold during the all-important fourth quarter. Top technologies, market strategies and industry trends will be discussed with industry analysts and executives.

If you are dissatisfied with the way your bust darts turn out (aka: looks like you're very cold and nipply), here's a simple way to curve them and make them more "boosie" shaped.
fabric, any pattern with bust darts, fabric marking pencil, sewing machine
Apr 3, 2013, 12.54 AMby candrew
Awesome! Does this work for A cup size too? There always seems to be more fabric than boob and it's obvious. What do you think? No dart? How do I handle size 12 but small boobs?

Sep 16, 2008, 01.10 AMby themisstress
Great how to! Just wanted to add, if you sew your dart from the wrong end (ie. from the seam instead of from the point) it's easier to run off at the point, and makes a softer shape. Hope that helps someone! Thanks again

GALE Phase 2 Arabic Broadcast Conversation Transcripts Part 1 was developed by the Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC) and contains transcriptions of approximately 123 hours of Arabic broadcast conversation speech collected in 2006 and 2007 by LDC, MediaNet, Tunis, Tunisia and MTC, Rabat, Morocco during Phase 2 of the DARPA GALE (Global Autonomous Language Exploitation) program. Corresponding audio data is released as GALE Phase 2 Arabic Broadcast Conversation Speech Part 1 (LDC2013S02).
The source broadcast conversation recordings feature interviews, call-in programs and round table discussions focusing principally on current events from the following sources: Al Alam News Channel, based in Iran, Al Arabiya, a news television station based in Dubai, Aljazeera, a regional broadcaster located in Doha, Qatar, Al Ordiniyah, a national broadcast station in Jordan, Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation, a Lebanese television station, Nile TV, a broadcast programmer based in Egypt, Oman TV, a national broadcaster located in the Sultanate of Oman, Saudi TV, a national television station based in Saudi Arabia and Syria TV, the national television station in Syria.
The transcript files are in plain-text, tab-delimited format (TDF) with UTF-8 encoding, and the transcribed data totals 752,747 tokens. The transcripts were created with the LDC-developed transcription tool, XTrans, a multi-platform, multilingual, multi-channel transcription tool that supports manual transcription and annotation of audio recordings. XTrans is available from the following link, http://www.ldc.upenn.edu/tools/XTrans/downloads/.
The files in this corpus were transcribed by LDC staff and/or by transcription vendors under contract to LDC. Transcribers followed LDCs quick transcription guidelines (QTR) and quick rich transcription specification (QRTR) both of which are included in the documentation with this release. QTR transcription consists of quick (near-)verbatim, time-aligned transcripts plus speaker identification with minimal additional mark-up. It does not include sentence unit annotation. QRTR annotation adds structural information such as topic boundaries and manual sentence unit annotation to the core components of a quick transcript. Files with QTR as part of the filename were developed using QTR transcription. Files with QRTR in the filename indicate QRTR transcription.

Find out what's going on in Abilene & the Big Country. Enhanced calendar and more »
I read this letter and some of the comments a month or so ago and have been wanting to say one thing. Why does it matter if it is an advertisment or not? AEP and Taylor Electric are the ONLY companies to choose from. Yes you can choose from who knows how many electric companies but all lines in and around Abilene are owned by one or the other regaurdless of who your bill is from. If you have any other service provider besides Taylor Electric the power line itself is owned by AEP. My point being when you really dont have a choice of who owns the equipment what would be the point of advertising? And by the way AEP does NOT sell the electricity, AEP is only responsible for maintaining the lines. One other thing, although some people do not find the job these men do as any great service because it is there job, let me ask you do you feel the same way about our police department, fire deparment, military...the list goes on. Yes it is there "job" and they chose to do it but that doesnt negate the fact that it is dangerous and they put their lives on the line every day.
Clyde, I am terrified of the direction this country is headed. Even before the election I was at a loss about what I should do about raising my child the way I want her to be raised. While in the mall with my newborn 2 years ago I looked around and then looked at my beautiful child and apologized for the things she will have to see and hear and witness in her lifetime. I know a lot of people are scared because of the outcome of the election and the direction of this country and I want to say as a republican, PLEASE PLEASE let me be proved wrong. I hope and pray every day that I am wrong and that I am crying wolf.I hope I am being parinoid and will have to eat my words. Because at this point, because of what I believe I see coming, I would rather admit that I am wrong than be proved right. Only time will tell.
