Riverworld (2010) Horror Movie Review
Horror movies Review
What is Riverworld? That was one of many questions swirling through the epic, emotive Syfy miniseries "Riverworld," an adaptation of Philip Jose Farmer's epic science fiction masterpiece. "Riverworld" tells the story of Matt Ellerman (Tahmoh Penikett, "Battlestar Galactica", "Dollhouse"), a war zone journalist, as he wakes from death along the banks of a seemingly endless river where everyone who lived and died on the earth has been reborn into their youthful bodies. But what is the purpose of this place? Why has Matt been "chosen" by the blue-skinned alien Caretakers? Is it an afterlife or a purgatory? What *is* Riverworld?
These questions and more fuel this strange journey along the banks of an endless river, populated with a lively cast of characters each with their own agenda. As Matt begins the search for his missing fiance, Jesse (Laura Vandervoort, "V", "Smallville"), he runs afoul of Sir Richard Burton (Peter Wingfield) and Francisco Pizzaro, joins forces with Samuel Clemins, a.k.a. Mark Twain (Mark Deklin), and begins an epic journey along the mighty and endless river to find the source of Riverworld and find answers to his many questions.
"Riverworld" raises many questions over the course of its four hours, and not all of them are answerable. While questioning the very purpose of humanity on an alien world, "Riverworld" neatly dodges overloading the viewers with existential angst while providing thrilling action and fascinating glimpses into the microcosms of history that have developed along the banks of the titular river: Francisco Pizarro's conquering Spanish army and the slave camps they've set up as part of their empire, and Mark Twain's riverboat and its memorable crew draw polar opposites of the good and the bad arising in the Riverworld.
The characters populating "Riverworld" are well-developed and flawed enough to be human. Characters darkly discuss the "suicide express"—killing oneself and seeing where one ends up along the river—and the lively slave trade that has come into existence in the forests, while Matt finds himself caught in a deadly chess game between the Caretakers as those who wish to destroy Riverworld and those who wish to save it begin a civil war fought through the human champions they've chosen, leading to a fairly disturbing torture sequence that forces Matt to question everything he knows about himself, his purpose, and his love for Jesse.
All of this isn't to say that "Riverworld" is without fault—while it is an original and intriguing story, many fans of Farmer's novels will be frustrated with the changes made to modernize the story. The Caretakers themselves are never satsifactorily explained, and Matt's continued quest to reunite with Jesse despite the discoveries of her dark side rearing its admittedly ugly head is fairly inexplicable. In fact, there are several aspects of "Riverworld" that are never truly explained, and the miniseries itself was left far too open—while it is a possiblity that "Riverworld" will be developed for series, if it is not, fans of the miniseries will never recieve closure on some of the issues raised within the miniseries. Also, certain mea culpas are required: While Tamoe, a Japanese female warrior, was played rather well by Jeananne Goossen, the historical liklihood of her existence is rather slim. The deus ex machina explanation of why everyone in the Riverworld spoke English was also a bit of a "gimme," though it's overlookable after a while. This incarnation of "Riverworld" was certainly a vast improvement over the campy 2003 production, at least.
Still, Penikett capably carries much of the weight of "Riverworld" on his shoulders as he turns Matt into an everyman, representing all of us within himself as he is forced to question everything around him when he awakes to this strange planet. Peter Wingfield once more masterfully plays the villain of the piece, but where Burton could have been a simple "bad guy" he is instead a human being with motivations not entirely unsympathetic. Mark Deklin, of course, steals nearly every scene he is in as he deliciously plays Mark Twain to the hilt, and Alan Cumming is suitably mysterious as the leader of the dark side of the civil war being fought between the Caretakers.
Ultimately, "Riverworld" was an enjoyable exploration of an intriguing world, introducing viewers to a likeable cast of characters, and the climactic and somewhat troubling finale was suitably explosive, to say the least. Never sparing on excitement and mysterious enough to keep viewers questioning, the open-ended nature of "Riverworld" will undoubtedly have many viewers wishing for a fully developed television series. As "Riverworld" doubled Syfy's viewership and broke records for miniseries premieres on weekends, it might not be a far-fetched idea.
While "Riverworld" can, at times, be as meandering as the titular river, it is never dull, and always as flowing and exciting as any journey down the vast, mystical river can be.
Four out of five stars.

After the first round of the 2013 Arnold Palmer Invitational, Justin Rose leads the field at 7-under par after shooting a 65 on Thursday.
Rose went on a stretch on the front nine in which he birdied holes four through seven. He shot a bogie on hole 11, birdied 13, had an eagle on 16, birdied 17 and rounded out the day with a par on 18. His performance lands him at least two strokes ahead of the rest of the top 10.
John Huh is alone in second with a score of 5-under par after shooting a 67 on Thursday while both John Rollins and Brad Fritsch are tied in third place at four under par. There are several players tied for fifth at three under par, including Tiger Woods, who shot a 69 on the front nine. Woods birdied holes four, five and six before he bogied on seven. Woods then birdied on 12, had an eagle on 16 but finished the day on a sour note by shooting bogies on both 17 and 18.
Tied with Woods are Charley Hoffman, Ryo Ishikawa, Nick Watney, Sean O'hair, Thorbjorn Olesen, Bill Haas, Jimmy Walker, Gonzalo Fdez-Castano and Ben Kholes.
The winner of the Arnold Palmer Invitational will take home $1.08 million and 500 FedEx Cup points. The total purse for the event is $6.2 million.

CALGARY — Albania heavy oil producer Bankers Petroleum Ltd. has appointed David French as president and chief executive to replace retiring Abby Badwi.
The Calgary-based company announced Wednesday after markets closed that Badwi will continue to serve as a director and vice-chairman.
His 43-year-old replacement is currently vice-president of business development for Houston-based Apache Corp. and has 22 years of experience in oil and gas development in North America and overseas, Bankers said.
French was previously based in Calgary during a stint with Apache Canada and worked for several years with McKinsey & Co. in Houston, a management consulting firm.
"Abby and his team have taken Bankers from 5,000 barrels of oil per day to 17,000 in just over five years despite two financial crises and the challenges associated with brownfield development," noted chairman Robert Cross in a news release.
The changes are effective in April.

An unavoidable fact about crude oil and natural gas is that it's rarely found in places like Toronto or Calgary and increasingly found in remote areas where Canada's aboriginal people live, making First Nations and the industry neighbours, collaborators, business partners, and often, friends.

Oil sands are recovered using two main methods: open-pit mining and in situ drilling. The method depends on how deep the reserves are deposited.
Canada's oil sands have drawn interest for more than 200 years. Historical documents date back as far as 1715, when James Knight, Factor of Fort York, wrote in his journal about "gum or pitch that flows out of the banks of a river" (the Athabasca).

Heathen in the Holy Land: Kabbalah leader dishes on Madonna
For previous posts from Gadling's new "Heathen in the Holy Land" series, go here, here, and here.
The Israeli town of Tzfat, the center of the Jewish mystical tradition known as Kabbalah, is made up of an eclectic mix of devoted Orthodox Jews and free-spirited Western expats. Rabbi Eyal Riess, a resident of Tzfat and one of the leaders of Kabbalah, seems to have a foot in each camp.
A former disc jockey in Tel Aviv who "saw the light" eight years ago, Rabbi Eyal sported a full, Orthodox-style beard and wore a long kaffiyeh when we met him for a tour of Tzfat on the Jewish holiday Purim. He says he lives an Orthodox lifestyle-- kosher diet, no work on the Sabbath-- and our walking tour of Tzfat mostly left me with the impression that Eyal was knowledgeable about his town and took seriously his role as one of Kabbalah's leaders. There's nothing like the zeal of a convert, after all.
As our walking tour wound down though, after we had been through Tzfat's Artist Quarter, the Cave of Shem and Eber (where Noah's son and grandson allegedly studied the Torah), and to the town's cemetery, we began to pick up hints that Rabbi Eyal might not be the austere mystic we thought we were meeting.
It started when I asked him a question based on the only thing most people know about his faith: "What do you think about Madonna being a follower of Kabbalah?"
His answer surprised me. I guess I expected him to say something along the lines of, "I'm glad she's brought attention to Kabbalah but she doesn't in any way represent our faith." Instead, he was enthusiastic about her participation and he mentioned proudly that "Montel Williams arrived here in a helicopter a couple weeks ago."
"Celebrities can lead very unbalanced lives," Eyal said. "They need kabbalah as much as anyone else-- sometimes more." (Curiously, he said the opposite two years ago, calling Madonna "not a role model" and "just silliness" in an article about her visit.)
Because I was visiting Tzfat as part of a press trip, Eyal asked me what publication I wrote for. "A website called Gadling," I told him.
"Do they do sales or just information?" Eyal asked.
"Umm, just... information." I stammered. The question confused me: Was this a Serious Religious Leader or some sort of huckster televangelist?
Eyal then lamented the fact that the name of his town could be spelled so many different ways (Tzfat, Safed, Tsfat, Zefat) because it confused people who Googled the town.
When our walking tour was over, Eyal seated our group back at the Kabbalah headquarters, asked our guide in Hebrew to give him ten minutes with us, then gave us his sales pitch: "We have many programs for tourists who are interested in Kabbalah-- from one day seminars to two-week workshops," he said.
He handed out several pamphlets listing the various programs that tourists could come and waste, I mean spend, their money on. One day-long workshop was based on The Secret: It consisted of, among other things, using a "powerful computer program" to figure out secrets about a person based on their name and birthday. The cost? About US$175.
And that's where Eyal-- intelligent, personable, former-DJ Eyal-- lost me. Maybe it's a flaw in me, but when I hear people talk earnestly about things like The Secret, I turn off the part of my brain that makes me take them seriously.
With his pathetic sales pitch, Eyal was making himself ridiculous, like a bishop who gives you a free tour of his cathedral then tries to sell you a timeshare.
In the end, although I was surprised by Eyal's embrace of Kabbalah celebrities like Madonna, he did confirm my suspicion about one thing: Those red bracelets she wears are crap.
Check out Eyal's Kabbalah website here. More Kabbalah workshops here.
Disclosure: This week-long trip to Israel was sponsored by the country's Ministry of Tourism. My opinions are (obviously) my own.

You will make a fine lawyer someday (after you pass your bar exams!). Once again, another excellent post, infused with the Hotfelder witticism I enjoy!
email@example.com Mar 30th 2009 1:27PM
Dear Aaron,
Always be wary of anyone selling enlightenment. BTW a kaffiyeh is the headress worn by traditional arabs. I think you meant the Rabbi wore a "kapotah", not a kaffiyeh.
Anyway, Kabbalah is a study that takes many years to be a real "leader". This person may be a popular teacher, but he's not a "leader".
While nobody should sell enlightenment, still if he's providing a class, he's entitled to ask for payment for his time.
Janelle Mar 31st 2009 10:19AM
Nice job Aaron, I see you used a bit of restraint on this post. Let's not forget that it was Purim, and our dear leader was very interested in getting home to get his drink on. Odd, and awkward for sure.

Aharon here kabbalist take money about talismans, prayers and amulets:
Why people need pay, about this???
Ruth Gold Oct 31st 2009 2:59PM
I know Eyal Riess personally. I met him on a tour with my congregation 2 years ago and the half day experience we had with him was very special. in fact, my friends insisted that we visit his center after a week long experience they had with him. Aharon, did you visit his center on Purim? it sounds like you were all pretty drunk... and BTW, why don't you write more about Tzfat? it is such an amzing city !!!
safta miriam May 3rd 2010 12:10AM
You are absolutely right. Kabbalistic teaching should not be give for money. In fact it should not be given at all except to those who already have the moral integrity and strength to receive it. The ancient rabbis who climbed the Kabbalistic path to its heights sometimes went crazy or suffered heart attacks. (For a modern translation consider the impact of LSD.) Whores like Madonna are playing with energies designed to bind human beings to their source. It's a good thing she isn't being offered real Kabbalah. It would break her to pieces.

Bedside HiFI - My Personal Wish List
Although in perfect working condition my Sony Digimatic Alarm clock/Radio has seen better days. It must be close to 20 of years old now, if it's a day. It is also designed in such a way that the front face is angle upwards. This makes it difficult for me to see the display comfortably with my head on my pillow. Deliberately designed this way? Who knows. I doubt even "Sony" themselves can remember after all this time.
The tuner is AM/FM by the way and, yes, even after all this time the 'volume control' on m Sony still works. Unlike another similar devices from Morphy Richards where the volume control has stopped working after only about 5 years use when the said control was barely used (if at all).
So I thought it is now about time to look for a new version. Upgrade?
This is what my ideal replacement device will feature (as well as a Digital Clock display of course):-
1 DAB radio
2 FM/AM - for whilst it is still available
3 A Dock - for my iPod Colour
4 Play CD/SACD discs.
5 WiFi - to connect to my Apple Airport Extreme Base Station
7 Reasonable Price (i.e. not hideously expensive - although I do realise that this depends on what one's definition of 'hideously expensive' is) and of course -
8 Wonderful sound (although I will most likely mostly want to use headphones as I'm a married man of 26 years vintage - if you get my gist).
Another thing would find useful may be a Firewire 800 or even a USB 2 (or five) in case I need to plug it in to my iMac direct for some reason I can't predict right now.
Anyone have any opinion/information as to what, if anything, is available as of June 2009 onwards, please?
Regards Hoofy
Hi Hoofy,
I'd say the Pure range is worth a look: the Avanti has internet radio and an iPod dock (but no CD player)... however, it will also link to your PC/NAS drive to access any CDs you have ripped. Seems the best compromise for what you're after. Cheers, James

There might not be a better story in Iowa's class than Greg Garmon.
Forget the fact that Iowa needs a running back to come through in this class like the Hawkeyes need helmets to work. The 6-2, 195-pounder from Erie, Pa., has seen some . . . stuff.
There's an excellent profile on Garmon at Sports Illustrated. Here's the link.
His family's home burned down when he was in the sixth grade. He lived with a friend's family for a year while the rest of his family lived in a hotel.
And then his world was really shaken.
For more than a year, Garmon complained of a severe pain in his left hip. Doctors called it "growing pains", dismissing it as a nonissue. But after a series of medical tests, Garmon's mother received a phone call. On a November afternoon, hovering outside his her bedroom, Garmon heard her voice tremble: He had non-Hodgkin Lymphoma of the bone.
Six months after his diagnosis, however, in May of eighth grade, Garmon was told he was cancer-free. He settled into summer and looked forward to playing football. He didn't compete in middle school, so freshman football presented the best chance to regain his former lifestyle. Taking the field in August, he was unsure of what toll the chemotherapy would have on his body.
"The first time I got hit, my whole body was tingling," he said. "I remember being unsure what happened, what was going on exactly. I didn't remember football being like this."
"I won't say that it is a good thing to go through cancer or to lose your house all in a couple years time, but it helped shape me into who I am," he said. "And it will shape me in the future."
Again, if there's another player where you maybe lay down your skepti-cyni, it's for Greg Garmon, who rushed for 2,859 yards and 27 touchdowns in three varsity seasons at Erie McDowell High School.
Scouting snippet
From ESPN.com: Garmon is an intriguing prospect to evaluate; a difference-maker at the high school level playing running back but may get recruited more as an athlete. Has a tall, well-built frame but still lean with a narrow base. Flashes great speed, can get the corner, but it is more of straight-line back. Lacks natural skill-set and smooth lateral agility at the position and is more of a one-cut and get North back.
While not overly fluid as a runner, he shows good vision, cutback and change-of-direction skill. Productive stretching the ball off-tackle and slicing back inside or across the field in a lot of runs he will not be able to get away with at the major college level. Shows very good burst and acceleration out of his downhill cuts. Squares up and reaches top speed quickly and can be a load for smaller DB's to come up and tackle. Strength is all through his upper-body and he is very difficult to try and arm-tackle high, particularly when he gains steam through the second level. Balance on contact is good. Will get low through traffic. Elusive in the open field with his ability to stop-start, jump-cut and break tackles. This is a determined back who looks to score on every run and is a finisher. However, he does lack great lower-body power and leg drive. Runs a bit high and could have difficulty breaking first contact consistently in college until he builds a stronger lower base and runs more behind his pads.
Hands are good and he has the frame to develop into a solid blocker making us believe that Garmon has every-down potential in college but will likely start off as a platoon or multi-purpose back until he builds more size and polishes up his skill-set. A big-play threat and potential underrated runner who may get recruited at safety or even an H-back type position with his good blend of size, speed and ball skills. Could add value immediately on special teams as a returner.
From Josh Helmholdt, Rival.com's midwest recruiting analyst: Garmon is a little bit of a change of pace. He's listed as a bigger kid, but I thought he was more of a sprint-type running back, more of a guy who lines up next to the quarterback in the shotgun. You can flex him out in the slot, too. He almost looks like a wide receiver, because he's a little bit tall and lanky.
What Iowa coaches said
Head coach Kirk Ferentz: He's an explosive running back, really elusive. Many of you are familiar with his history, his life history. He's been through some trials and tribulations health-wise, and otherwise. He's weathered those things in tremendous fashion. He's got a tremendous demeanor and outlook and attitude. He's a very positive young man, very talented young man.
We're fortunate, I think that we haven't had much luck in the state of Pennsylvania overall, but Erie, Pennsylvania has been really good to us. We are thrilled to get him on the team. He's playing in his eighth All-Star Game today. He's got a game at 6:00 tonight, as I understand it. So he's certainly a champion playing in All-Star Games. But just a delightful young guy, and the other three players that we've had from Erie, that would be fantastic. So we'll keep our fingers crossed.We're really excited about getting Greg here and looking forward to getting him on the team.
Recruiting coordinator Eric Johnson: He's definitely a running back for us. He's got that shiftiness to him. He's got good speed. We have a ton of connections in Erie and everyone can't say enough good things about him. He was a guy we offered early, early on. He can do a lot of things on special teams. Very good running back. He was a guy we felt very comfortable with. He helps shore up a position that we need shoring up.
What I think
This game won't break Garmon. Life has already tried and failed.
I think if Iowa could afford to redshirt a running back, Garmon would be the one. Build his body for a season and then bring fresh legs into the mix in 2013. That isn't happening. Garmon needs to be ready to play because he's going to.
Freshmen rarely earn time on kick return, but Garmon's skills could translate there. Iowa is in need. And hey, remember Iowa just got done playing Jordan Canzeri and all 172 of his pounds in the Insight Bowl. So, if Garmon comes in closer to 185 than 195, there is precedent (Brandon Wegher, too) for an undersized running back.
Garmon plays. The redshirt would be optimum, but Garmon might be ready as is and Iowa needs him to be ready no matter what.
I really hope this kid works out, not just because of his obvious talent, but because he will be a great one to visit the Children's Hospital. No one would give those kids more inspiration than he will.
Excellent point, Ed!
Obviously, given our situation in the backfield, we'll have Garmon at running back, but honestly, if our backfield were stronger, I could just as easily see this guy as a WR – can you picture the YAC? – or even an OLB recruit.

In just three days after Door to Door first aired on July 14, Porter's Web site, which offers products ranging from organic dishwashing detergent to barbecue sauce, tallied $60,000 in sales, according to Shelly Brady, Porter's longtime friend and business associate who was also portrayed in the movie.
By comparison, Porter was named "Salesman of the Year" in 1989 for sales of $42,460. Hits on his Web site have risen steadily, from 80 per second in the first days after the broadcast to 200 per second at the end of July. The result: more than $125,000 in gross sales for the month, 44 times more than he makes in a usual month.
The first thing Porter plans to do with his newfound wealth? "Pay income taxes," he says. "Then maybe build a new house. Mine's getting old." By Andrew Heller

Saw this in the Random Picture Thread posted by adgy.
Reminds me of this old beauty:
I have a bad feeling that the SMG Peacekeeper (DLC Weapon) is going to be severely overpowered and I'll tell you why.
DLC Maps - If you don't buy them, you don't play in them. If you don't play in them, you know you're not missing out on anything.
DLC Gun - I'm almost certain they'll make everyone download a patch so they can see this gun in the game.
While the game setting won't allow you to play on DLC maps if you don't have it, people who have the DLC gun should be able to use it in any map (DLC and Non DLC). I think the kicker here is that if you don't buy the DLC, you can still use the gun if you pick it up off the floor. Obviously, you won't be able to customize it the way you like with the Create a Class stuff.
So that's why I think it'll be intentionally overpowered. It's to get people like me, (the ones who refuse to support the DLC junk) buy the damn DLC. In a way, you could say that the gun is an advertisement. They could care less that it's game-breaking. It's all about $$$. If you want a super powerful weapon, get the DLC. If not, then enjoy getting killed by it.
360 kick flip to 5050, SMG headshot out!

This may be a photo of Billy the Kid, Doc Holliday, Jesse James, and Charlie Bowdre, taken in Las Vegas (NM) in 1879:
"There is that story that these two met in Las Vegas at the Old Adobe Hotel on July 26, 1879, and during a card game Jesse asked Billy to join his gang..........Henry Hoyt and Migeul Otero say so in their books, and that they witnessed it..............But Jesse James did stay at the Old Adobe Hotel from July 26 through July 29 in the summer of 1879, according to an announcement in the Las Vegas Optic printed weeks later. The owner of the Old Adobe Hotel, W. Scott Moore, was from Clay County, Missouri, Jesse's home turf, and was a childhood friend of his. Hoyt recalled Jesse's missing finger and his alias, Mr. Howard. And Jesse was on the run, so New Mexico is possible."
Billy the Kid and Jesse James (via Kottke)
I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

Little-known fact about real-life gunslinging: being short enough so that most shots go over your head when your opponent is shooting from the hip is a tactical advantage.

I don't know. Ned Kelly's hotter than Heath Ledger or Mick Jagger.
Antinous / Moderator says:
20 minutes of combing through film titles later… I didn't have much luck finding real life anti-heroes in 1990s films that can be seen in photos. Ed Wood's about as good looking as Johnny Depp.
Brainspore says:
I was thinking Young Guns but it turns out that was 1988, though the sequel was released in 1990. And let's not forget Brad Pitt's turn as Doc Holliday in Tombstone (1993).

hungryjoe says:
I can totally tell by the pixels and the angle of the shadows and whatnot, but also, Wikipedia says that Holliday left Las Vegas on 7/20 after killing a man named Mike Gordon. This was 6 days before James arrived at the Adobe Hotel.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doc_HollidaySome people seem to think it possible that James met Bonney at the hotel. And if Bonney was there, it makes sense that Bowdre would have been as well.

jesse james doesn't have a tuba. where is jesse james' tuba? this is obviously shopped.

Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The year is 1901 — it's been twenty-three years since Peter and the Lost Boys returned from Rundoon. Since then, nobody on the island has grown a day older, and the Lost Boys continue their friendship with the Mollusk tribe, and their rivalry with Captain Hook.
Meanwhile in London, Molly has married George Darling and is raising three children: Wendy, Michael, and John. One night a visitor appears at her door; it's James, one of Peter's original Lost Boys. He is now working for Scotland Yard and suspects that the heir to England's throne, Prince Albert Edward, is under the influence of shadow creatures. These shadow creatures are determined to find a secret cache of startstuff which fell to London many centuries ago. The starstuff is hidden in an underground vault which has only one key: the Sword of Mercy, a legendary weapon kept with the Crown Jewels. Molly is determined to help, but when she suddenly goes missing, it is up to her eleven-year-old daughter, Wendy, to keep the starstuff out of the Others' clutches. She has heard her mother's stories of a flying boy named Peter Pan, and he may be her only hope in saving the world from a shadowy doom...

Clyde Fitzgerald stands in front of the historic Rhea County Courthouse holding the sign to mark the beginning of the Scopes Festival Bus Tour. Fitzgerald will serve as guide for the tour as it visits numerous sites around Dayton that played a part in the 1925 Scopes Trial.
Tuesday, July 16, 2013
(Last modified: 2013-07-16 16:33:29) Source: The Herald-News The Rhea County Courthouse lawn will be the beginning point for bus tours of significant trial sites in the Dayton area. Local residents and festival guests are invited to board the bus where they will hear the history and see the places which are important sites related to the trial. Rev. Clyde Fitzgerald, a Rhea County native and veteran tour guide, will accompany each group.
Points along the tour will include the original site of Robinson's Drug Store, the place where plans for the trial originated. Various businesses and residences which provided housing for numerous reporters and attorneys in 1925 will be identified. The bus will pass Bailey's Boardinghouse, home to John Scopes while teaching in Dayton and the site of Rhea Central High School in 1925, the school where Scopes taught. Another historic site will be the First United Methodist Church where William Jennings Bryan made his last public appearance when he attended the morning worship on Sunday, July 26, 1925. The tour will include a drive through the campus of Bryan College. All tours will begin and end at the historic Rhea County Courthouse. Festival goers should meet at the "Tours" sign on the front lawn to board the bus. Tours are scheduled for Friday, July 19, between 4 and 6 p.m. and Saturday, July 20, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Passengers will remain on the bus during the tour.

Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.

Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
"The extraordinary 2007 Claret, which is a Cabernet Sauvignon-based wine, displays inky notes of lead pencil shavings, pen ink, creme de cassis, blackberry, incense, and licorice. The wine is super-pure and super-rich, an extraordinarily full-bodied powerhouse of a Cabernet Sauvignon that should evolve for 15 or more years. Its sweetness of tannin and headiness already make it accessible " 98 Points The Wine Advocate
"Saturated bright ruby. Subdued but pure nose offers brooding black fruit aromas joined by emerging notes of graphite, licorice and exotic oak. Dense, lush and superrich but not overly sweet. This mouthcoating wine is a bit youthfully aggressive but already quite sexy, even if it really merits at least a few years of cellaring. Finishes with powerful but sweet tannins and very good energy and grip. More vibrant than the 2006 version." 93 Points International Wine Cellar
"Offers a wonderful sense of harmony, balance and finesse. Ripe and rich without being heavy, this is marked by complex currant, black cherry, anise, spice and sage, gaining depth and complexity on the long, lingering finish. Drink now through 2017. " 92 Points Wine Spectator

Woodsongs Coffeehouse features Steve Lane

Harbinger of spring
I was on a hike on a trail in Shohola during mid-March when I spotted what appeared to be a butterfly flying in the distance. I waited and watched as it landed nearby. What butterfly flies around in March when it is still cold and several weeks from "greening up" time?
The answer was soon obvious as I got close enough to identify this dark-colored butterfly with a yellow fringe around its wings. I was looking at a mourning cloak (Nymphalis antiope) on a late winter jaunt. One of the nicknames for this species is "Harbinger of Spring." It did indeed make an early appearance. Read more

"So? What do you do? Do you just stay at home with the kids?" said the lady with the big hair and the fake eyelashes.
She looks rich. She looks successful. But is she? I can see her in her house, fighting with her husband. She's saying, "Honey…. Why don't you ever wash the dishes? Lola's husband washes the dishes," she means to say, "Will you please help me wash the dishes?" But she's tired, and her brain isn't thinking about manners. Her tone of voice is harsh and nagging. The husband interprets this as, "You're worthless. You're a jerk. Everyone else is better than you."
"Yeah, but. Lola's husband is a loser. He doesn't have a job. Washing dishes is his job." The husband has a lot more to say. He wants to prove is point. But she won't let him. She talks over him. Her voice and her rage escalate. She's mad. Now he's mad. Now they're both yelling. Pretty soon, there will be dishes flying.
The lady doesn't know that I know her secrets. When I see her, I see a woman who constantly criticizes her husband. No doubt she complains constantly, and always has to have her way. She gets what she wants, whenever she wants it.
No doubt, she had an expensive wedding. I know this, but I'm not psychic. She's got big hair, she shops at Dillard's and wears a woman suit. This is the type of person who "has" to have a big wedding. She demands it. She will have no other way.
This lady pities me. She looks down upon me as some poor dejected woman whose husband controls her. To her, I'm just that poor housewife. If only I would go to college and get a job, I too, could be successful like her.
There is no black or white. There is only succeed or fail. So what do I say to this lady? She sees what she wants to see. She hears what she wants to hear. No matter what I say, she is going to make up her mind about me, and it isn't going to be good. I have no choice. I must throw her for a loop.
If I try to impress her, she'll think I'm pretentious and hate me. If I try to be humble, she'll think I'm an idiot, and have no respect for me.
Well. If she is going to think something, then, she must not have any reason to believe that I'm ordinary. When I try to act like I'm normal, I look insane. When I don't try, I look freaky. So what do I do? I spend ten minutes trying to think of an answer to give this lady. Maybe she'll walk away with no impression, whatsoever. Sometimes they do.
This time, she stays and waits for my answer. I say "I'm a freeloader. I don't have a job. I just sit around day and eat bon bons."
Everybody in the world has the same response to this, with no variation.
"Oh, no. Your job is very important. Your job is to take care of the children. That is so important," says the career woman as she looks down upon me with those virtuous all holy eyes of sheer sympathy.
As if! Seriously. Dear God. Okay. She apparently, doesn't really believe that. If she did. She wouldn't have a job. She's thinking…not smart. Made bad choices. Poor lady. I wonder if I should give her the dusty can of collard greens sitting in the back of my pantry.
Dear God Almighty, I hope she doesn't ask me for money. I don't have time for this. I seriously hope nobody sees me talking to this lady. What can I do to get away?
I heard a guy on the radio say that you'll only have as much money and success, as the people that you hang around with. So, you have to hang out with people with money, in order to get more money. Is this why nobody will give me the time of day? Do they think that I'm just some low life middle class nobody. Should this bother me?
But whoa. Wait a second. The big haired lady who shunned me-she's the poor one. There's no telling how much debt she's accumulated. She's just two paychecks away from bankruptcy and foreclosure. If life suddenly hits this lady with the unexpected, that diamond chandelier of hers is going to come crashing down. She's playing Jenga on a glass table with adamantium blocks.
Chances are, this lady will be divorced in 5 years, living in a studio apartment across the country, just raving about how her life is so much better- now that she's left Karl.
I'll buy her five thousand dollar wedding dress, at a garage sale for ten bucks, and wear it as my Halloween dress. I'll smear it with fake blood and go as the murdered bride.
How dare she condescend me? That's what she gets. Ha. I'll find some nice person to invite to my gingerbread party. Forget her, man. Forget her.

tele mod, bridge problem
hello. I need some advise. I am going to turn my tele into a plus. many peple uses the humbucker gotoh bridge. I'm thinking about using the fender hardtail. is it going to work? or i will have problems with the existing pickup route/hole.

If your tele has traditional tele single coil pickups you will have to re-route the pickup cavities for humbuckers regardless of which bridge you use. Humbuckers are much larger than single coils.

A typical humbucker surround ring is NOT gonna cover all the typical T bridge single coil rout. If your donor guitar is like many MIMs and has that additional removed area below the lowest part on the rout, that area will extend down into the area covered by the Strat Hardtail type bridge assemblies.
On the other hand that Gotoh integrated HB bridge is a giant monster. Way too big to look decent on a Tele body, IMO - even though I've been looking at those big bridges for 30 years. Never gets any better, no matter how long you look at it. |

(POOL/CNN) – A federal judge has turned down a proposed $760 million settlement of claims from concussion by NFL players.
Anita Brody of the U.S. District Court for the eastern district of Pennsylvania made her decision in a 12-page memorandum issued Tuesday.
She wrote she's concerned that not all those with a qualifying diagnosis will end up getting paid.
She described as "commendable" the efforts made by the players' representatives and the NFL to reach a negotiated resolution to the class-action lawsuit.
But she said she had made her decision in light of her duty to protect the rights of all potential class members and "the insufficiency of the current record."

Stepping up at right time
Thomas Jr. still takes pride in playing a significant hand in rallying WVU that season. He said he has an innate leadership quality that he's happily seen come out in his son this year.
The two had a number of heart-to-heart chats after the Mountaineers dropped two straight, to Syracuse and Connecticut, in October. Thomas Jr. could see his son's frustration through the defeats, as he wondered out loud what more the defense could do.
The elder Thomas corrected those thoughts immediately, reminding his son that the defense wasn't producing points and was settling for being the best defense in the Big East instead of shooting for being the top unit in the country. Thomas Jr. told his son the team needed a leader, not a complainer.
Teammates have credited Thomas III, who has 63 tackles, for saying the right words in the locker room at the opportune time.
In reality, he was reminded of the book on leadership his father gave him as a freshman.
"I told J.T. when he was 15 that he had the qualities to be a great leader," Thomas Jr. said. "Kids always drew to him and gravitated toward him. But I told him to be a great leader is more than having kids who want to be your friends. You've got to listen and sacrifice it all for your team. That's what he's done."
Leading by actions
WVU head coach Bill Stewart agrees, but he said Thomas' impact goes well beyond the words he speaks.
"J.T. Thomas has been a very powerful leader for us," Stewart said. "He's not only done it by his voice. You know, anyone can talk, but the guys who do it on the field, the guys who have been nicked, the guys who have been injured and fight through every day pain and work through it, that's how leaders emerge."
Thomas has had pain in his neck all season and has worn a protective piece chosen by head trainer Dave Kerns. It was an issue throughout preseason, but Thomas has not once missed a play or complained about the discomfort.
"But he just played. The kid just worked hard," Stewart said. "When people see that, they get excited and rally behind a warrior type of person, but he's not just been talking it, but living it and showing it and has done it for four years."
Bucking the trend?
Watching this WVU football season has been like reliving history for Thomas Jr. He just hopes his son bucks the trend this time around by closing his career with a victory, against N.C. State (8-4), on Tuesday night.
"More than anything else, he's just been so involved with this team," Thomas Jr. said. "At some point, with most teams, guys will start thinking about themselves, especially those guys that they may make it in the NFL. He's never done that. He's always turned inward toward his team. He's always worked to rally his team for a cause."

I had the lovely opportunity to work for a drug addict for years. It wasn't difficult, he was, for the most part, a well meaning person. However, he had(has) some crippling attributes that undercut any effectiveness he could have had as a manager and leader. Instead of focusing on what he did, i'd like to highlight three bad habits he had that could have rubbed off and potentially hamstrung my future.
Taking Feedback: Constructive criticism is our friend. Instead of utilizing valuable feedback as a conduit to repair/rebuild/strengthen my personal and professional relationships, I caught myself taking the easy excuses to burn bridges. Not knowing when we are incorrect inhibits our ability to be flexible to an ever changing world.
Verbal Narcissism: We've all met people who fully believe every word that comes out of their own mouth- no matter how ridiculous. When approached with valid concerns from my staff, I caught myself repeating the same platitudes given to me instead of addressing them. Not only did this stunt my growth, it prevented those who relied on me from getting a valuable learning experience.
Shooting for Mediocre: Never be the smartest person in the room if you are trying to grow, and never set your pace by the slowest water buffalo. I measured my success by boss's failures, and not my own accomplishments. "I don't mess up like that guy does" isn't the best tag-line to represent yourself.
Fewer things set more bad habits than having bad management. Not only is it demotivating, it can actually make you less prepared for future opportunities. Don't let others poor habits infect your ability to be your best.

I feel your pain. I have also been stopped by the police for doing records & threatened to be arrested many times for doing records at the park. I am now officially banned at park close to where I live just for doing records no laws were broken but I will be banned for life
