Jason La Canfora joined Kirk and Gerry to talk about the departure of Wes Welker and the arrival of Danny Amendola in Foxboro. CBSSports.com's NFL guru says the Pats and other successful franchises always seem to know when to let their aging players go and focus on who can be the next big thing. La Canfora also says things are looking good for Aqib Talib to remain in New England, because if he were going to get a great offer from another team, he'd probably be gone already.

Dennis and Callahan joining us now in the AT&T hotline AT&T forgy LTE was speeds up to ten times faster three GAT and T rethink possible from CBS sports. Is Jason -- for Jason how are you this morning. I do worry what's reaction around the NFL here it is. Welcome leaving New -- going Denver. But there's an initial surprise in that. You kind of distinctive Tom Brady Wes Welker you know two peas in pod that they'll actually get it done but there also was a strong sense all along that. The patriots were not just in -- little extra money around. For the sake of doing it and that. You can see from the it -- and traded and you use it and just leading up to free agency. -- Mike Wallace has become a pretty clear that none of these guys are gonna have a field day in the Greg Jennings is still out. Now he's trying to get more money out of enough money at a Minnesota that they can read greenback. I think that's going to be materialize expect it to be honest with you I don't think there's going to be huge -- spreading these guys so. You know -- with that in mind me. You have to kind of do what you think you have to do it especially organization and they're still trying to keep to we -- trying to. Keep Vollmer. You know if they could add someone who could help them stretch that he'll be able to do that a lot of those guys out there now. You never know what happens on the trade market so they need to have some flexibility there and and you know. Website guess what -- feel rollout but it's not like the offer that they put front and it was completely out of the ballpark -- You know they tremendously low balled him in the market had spoken and kind of the Tennessee -- -- that -- -- for sniffing around but. That would be more money out there for west anywhere in this is kind of what it is when you're when you're at this age that's just reality. But you know and a -- and an Amendola. Do we do that here. I think it's four bullet to -- before and have but. Very similar players and and Wes Welker stays in the field and Amendola does not is there a sense that. Amendola could step right -- and be Wes Welker. What how I get the question is how long does -- walker keeps -- -- -- it means everybody if everybody decline. It's it's it's it's just reality we get older. We're not to say we're not sharp injuries take on the comeback from and he's taken a lot of beating inside that slot against much bigger guys for a long long time. And there -- looking toward the future there comes a point where you have to have focus on how much are we saying that starts what he's done in the past. And how much can we projected he's gonna keep don't percent of women don't hurt. -- -- put on the field as a pretty successful so they're hedging their bets that. This -- moving forward will be able to stay healthy and he's. Entering his prime at 27. Whereas west is totaled 32 and note that they're thinking we're going to be paying more for what he was that what can be it's not like that contract and I am like crushed their cap or any Capital One way or the other it's not like. You know I mean look at what -- Miami gave Bryant Park like I'd much rather have done that -- don't deal. That Miami gave prior -- they get that don't have much more special player. Much more active. Mormon nose for for for for big plays more of a guy you can do more I think after the catch in prior art management is security here it -- touchdown question. I think you need to look at the entire composite of all the guys you're compared with not just haven't all of us well how about -- delivers the rest of the market. I you mentioned the outside receivers and they have till tomorrow -- believed to give a bonus to Brandon Lloyd or move on. If they move on if the patriots move on Jason likened for a who's out there who's available we obviously know Mike Walsh is gone and other than Greg Jennings which does seem likely. Who else. Well I mean north the issue -- to consider as the Victor Cruz makes any sense there's a lot of teams considering. With that first round tender and the giants not having the greatest cap situation in the world there are a little bit vulnerable history would say. These guys generally don't go after each -- restricted free agents for whatever reason drawing a conclusion as -- -- but you know. It's it's still would be an option I mean otherwise I don't know that. Much great is gonna develop. In the trade market and the true game changer in the marketing person you are and it. He was he was gobbled up right away via trade out of those in -- other guys. Like that little problem -- the patriots also very adept at moving up and on the draft board as need be so they can also turn your attention drafted as by the particular target they're. That you think could really change the dimension of our team that the -- Austin from West Virginia continues to get a lot of positives that there's enough receivers that. We have the pedestal so where we're maybe you'd then make your moves and in late April. Pretty -- -- art Pollard he says he's out there it's been rumored you know maybe -- pages may look at him maybe Jim Wilson coming in today -- Abraham tomorrow any news about Pollard. I mean you know it's another guy -- at this stage of his career you're not gonna have to break the bank for himself to looking forward enforcer looking for someone. No it was gonna bring that that aspect of a bumper. Back there that then you've got enemies he's not going to be tremendously athletic at this stage his career and he can get hurt gambling in coverage. But I mean that's kind of -- the patriot way you find some of these guys toward the end of their career. Who we get a little cheaper and maybe you -- one or two more good years out of the summit I think he's someone that could make some sense of that yet. Art does spoke to a heavenly players left early and -- -- movement was seven on seven -- yeah. Evan and open tryout I spoke to us and has had a bunch of they'll be fine. You know that this happens it happens dignity it's just it's just reality in the -- with. Pittsburgh north and sent daily Pittsburgh lost men and all the lost Wallace. They lost Harrison. Casey have been done. You know nobody's trying to that would help find -- -- if you lose bill. It would only quarterback. And you have stability to coaching ranks and have a strong analysis. You survived this and involved or will be okay in the third third. They're gonna have more cap space they have other moves they can make like became concerning the continued assign value created you look at their Super Bowl is. Jacoby Jones you guys just talk about Pollard. Vonta Leach. Don't order it on -- -- would be projected these guys are -- free agents decided the third wave of create insulated Bryant -- they re signed just before camp started. You know I would be an undrafted free agency. If you're technical people like that you're okay -- I like the patriotism and the ravens and and the -- are -- are gonna patent Harrison six million dollar to James Harrison is you know why he's navigators and five years ago his editors and right now. The papers aren't gonna pay Wes Welker for the Wes Welker for years ago. They're trying to plan and that's what next let's walk Byrd of west but it reached a price point he thought the ravens are gonna pay Paul Boldin. Six million a year when you have equipment that's the going rate for guys were five you know 567 years younger than him. They're gonna try to get some value form and they're gonna move on and try to put on the next equitable with the Steelers drafted next James Harrison that that's the reality of the business and that's by. These franchises have been successfully got to sell scalp you have to know. When it's time to give the guy -- third -- fourth contract that would let the let somebody else do that. In almost about a week ago somebody said Miami might have the best receiving corps in the AFC. And then in the three days later west signs in Denver and someone else said Denver's got the best receiving corps in the AFC. Do you think Denver and I'm I would say Denver's got the edge now would you agree that that's the best in the in the league. They have. -- -- stand -- with -- -- would certainly thinks on the director and Thomas on the outside you know got you got active tight -- to make plays I think stoke -- probably obsolete at this point with -- that the cabinet -- -- very very dangerous team they franchise -- But that's another one -- Like a Democrat to win this year that -- not that far away from being -- Obama is right now it's a -- and have the ring -- work I mean they got to make a decision to revoke that they're not gonna pay him twelve in -- The paint chip barely ten million dollars this year but that's it that's not gonna continue. You know Peyton Manning is very very much. A year to year proposition. -- I was gonna have to get paid. A year from now ourselves so you know that that's that's -- -- -- -- -- held together -- paper -- but -- volatile -- -- try to win right now knowing that if we don't do this in the year -- We're looking for a new quarterback. We're looking for at least one new wide receiver probably a new tight -- You know -- -- you know they've got some things are gonna have to figure out there as well moving forward. So you know. It's a gamble and I understand -- they're dormant but there's no guarantees it'll work if it doesn't. -- -- -- in the same conundrum that other teams again except you better hope of the rings to show for. Seems at the cornerback sort of market -- has played itself out the last couple days -- Keenan Lewis and and Sean Smith and in Williams with the Eagles putting that means for to believe it is still your understanding that he. Might wind up back in doing. I mean it's as if there was something else out there that -- is so -- couldn't pass it up. He wouldn't pass so for him still being there I think that's not a case where. That the patriots are Smart they've done their due diligence in this state they know that he's got off field issues obviously you know is that strike if there is want to be significant so. That's gonna affect your market value period that's gonna make people a little bit hesitant to put the kind of guaranteed money for you that I'm sure you'd like to see so. You know that's going to be a market that slope they've played and I think there's certainly is is that a good chance at the end of the new -- that is it that the money wasn't there initially. And you're still sitting there then you have to -- well okay maybe there's a little more money from me -- -- somewhat but two are really wanna go. To a team that's totally rebuilding -- staying here. You know in a locker room where I seem to fit in and where they're gonna maybe help you stay out of trouble. And then that helps you get that next contract in the bit rather that you go somewhere else for a little bit more money you flame out a couple of years you do get in trouble off the field and indeed done earning money is an NFL player period. -- Jason appreciate it thanks for your time. Great stuff is always huge market for CBS sports.

Purged Messages
I did a backup the other day in anticipation of getting a replacement 8830. Today when I did the restore I see a database to be installed called purged messages and it has like 280 objects in it. Is this like a trash bin and if so how do I find it. I don't see a folder called purged in my messages folders. I deleted some text messages that I had saved and was wondering if that might be them.
Hmm, I don't have an answer for you, but I have a guess perhaps it's messages that were on your phone during the backup that you have since erased, and thus now on the restore you have the option to restore your purged messages? Just a guess lol
How To: Purge Deleted Messages From Your BlackBerry
How To: Purge Deleted Messages From Your BlackBerry
Many people don't realize that once you delete an email on your BlackBerry, it is actually still on your device.
In order to Purge deleted items from your device, do the following:
Go into your messages folder.
Click in the trackwheel or trackball to get into the messages menu.
Scroll down to options
In Options, go to Email Reconciliation.
Click in the trackwheel or hit the menu button, and you will see "Purge Deleted Items".
Click that, and it will ask which email address you want to purge from.
Choose that mailbox and it will purge the deleted messages off of your device.Thanked by:3G.BoldBerry (12-26-2010)
Interesting...I have a Verizon phone and when I followed these steps it emptied the "deleted" folder on my Outlook Desktop but it did not clear the records from the "Purged Messages" database on my device???? The only way I have found to clear the "purged messages" database on my device is by using desktop manager to clear the database. I was hoping this would do if from the device.
You should run a purge at least once a week, then battery pull.

I always thought the purge would clear the trash from the email acct. Not the phone. Very good info to know now.

If you've ever wandered the aisles at the video store or surfed the DVR pay-per-view options and seen a bunch of movies that you've never heard of, chances are John has watched them. Why? He loves movies. All kinds of movies. Good, bad, so-bad-they're good, even the truly unwatchable ones. He mostly loves horror and science-fiction and drive-in exploitation movies that most upstanding model citizens wouldn't dare watch. Then he writes up his thoughts so you can decide - watch, don't watch or avoid at all costs. Sometimes he even gets to talk to the cool folks who make some of your favorite films.

A Conversation With: Ti West
Posted Apr 26, 2012 by John Allman
Updated Apr 26, 2012 at 09:04 PM
Ti West doesn't believe in ghosts.
The director of such fantastic frights as "The Roost" and "House of the Devil" isn't one for giving in to basic fears. What does interest West, 31, is how things are perceived and what tricks perception can play – both on characters in his films, and on his audience.
That, in a nutshell, is what is most amazing about his latest feature, "The Innkeepers," which might seem like an old-fashioned ghost story until you peel back the curtain and see the multiple mechanisms at play.
"The Innkeepers" is a very deliberate film.
The pacing is deliberate, and perfectly timed, rolling ever so slowly from an almost quietly-stated workplace comedy with paranormal overtones to a full-blown haunted house with dire consequences at every turn.
The acting is deliberate, and above-average, for what is essentially a low-budget, independent film. And funny – really, surprisingly funny.
And West is deliberate, making sure to keep two possibilities in play at all times, even up to the shocking climax.
It's all in how you perceive the events unfolding within the historic halls of The Yankee Pedlar Inn.
Skeptics might conclude that Claire (the wonderful Sara Paxton) has been duped into believing in ghosts by Luke (the hysterical Pat Healy), who plays heavily on the fact that the old hotel where they work is about to close and time is running out for the amateur ghost hunters to try to contact Madeline O'Malley, the woman who supposedly died there decades before.
True believers, however, will believe. They will accept that spirits can linger in a place and that spirits can make contact and that spirits can choose to inflict torment and pain, if they so desire.
Besides being a skeptic, West is both cagey and surprisingly frank when reached by phone by BVB: Blood, Violence and Babes to discuss "The Innkeepers."
If he is to be believed, this may be one of the last horror films he chooses to write and direct. The genre has started to bore him, and he's looking for new ideas to ignite his creative process.
Let's just hope he decides to make at least one of two possible projects he's considering – a werewolf comedy that West describes this way: "It's like 'Cable Guy,' but with a werewolf."
Now that's a pitch Larry Fessenden of Glass Eye Pix could never turn down.
BVB: I've read stories about how you and your crew stayed in The Yankee Pedlar while filming "House of the Devil." Was that the genesis of the idea for "The Innkeepers," or had you been wanting to do a good old-fashioned ghost story for awhile?
TW: I didn't think much of it at the time. It was just a weird place we stayed in because it was cheap. About a year and a half later, I wanted to do another movie for a low budget. I thought, let me do a ghost story. It occurred to me that we sort of lived one while we were filming "House of the Devil." I knew the crew knew their way around the hotel, even if we didn't want to go back there.
BVB: What kind of weird occurrences did you experience?
TW: Doors opening, closing by themselves. Lights turning on and off. TV's turning on.
BVB: Had you ever stayed in a place you thought was haunted before?
TW: Probably, but I don't believe in ghosts. The Yankee was the closest I've come, but I still don't believe.
BVB: Madeline O'Malley is your creation, right? What was the inspiration, because I liked how simplistic her story was.
TW: I wanted that sort of urban legend, simple campfire tale, ghost story. When Claire tells the story, she has the flashlight under her chin.
BVB: Sound is such a key element of "The Innkeepers." How hard was it to get exactly what you wanted? I'm thinking specifically of the scene where Claire is doing EVP tests and hears the music playing. That was such a strong scene.
TW: It wasn't real hard. I've had the same sound guy on every movie I've made. He's like my secret weapon. The first time I saw the scene where she (Claire) took the headphone off, we kind of high-fived because it worked. I had never seen that before. It was cool to try something new.
BVB: I loved how so much of the film was about fate, about the consequences of decisions. There were several times where the other characters almost tried to warn Claire, but she was so determined to have something – anything – happen in her life. Were you trying to imply that we often bring about our own fate?
TW: Yes. To me, the reason for making the movie was I felt the sort of apathy that comes with being stuck in a minimum wage job was a good juxtaposition to ghosts being stuck haunting. As soon as (Claire) finds something to latch onto, it's kind of all she has, even if it's something bad. That kind of theme, and then the overall theme of perception. You could make the case that there no ghosts at all in the movie, that Claire let her imagination get the best of her…or you could make the case that she was attacked by ghosts. To me, what's not interesting is one of those. What's interesting is the possibility of both. Just having one to me is uninteresting. Having the possibility of both is what makes it worth thinking about.
(WRITER'S NOTE: Spoilers are sprinkled throughout the rest of the interview, for those who haven't seen the movie yet!)
BVB: Speaking of Claire, her inhaler. I heard a podcast recently where they were discussing "The Innkeepers," and the theory was that the inhaler was an homage to a certain classic film from the '80s. True?
TW: No. The reason she has an inhaler, I needed to give her a weakness that could affect her. I have asthma myself, although I don't need it if I get scared. I needed to give her a reason she could die of an issue of her own that's been planted up front. Or it could have been that there were ghosts.
BVB: Pat Healy's Luke – I loved his character, the humor, and also how he totally bailed on Claire when the ghost hunting got real. Did you worry about audience reaction to his decision, or did you trust that most people would have done the same thing?
TW: I always just imagined – to me it was always funny that the guy, going with the perception thing, he knows the most about ghosts, the moment he interacts with them he wants nothing to do with it.
BVB: The final scene, the extended shot into the room, I kept waiting for Claire's spirit to come rushing at the camera like in the video that Luke showed her at the beginning of the movie. Were you tempted at all to do that, or did you just have fun playing with the audience's expectation?
TW: It was always playing with the idea that it was a call back to that. The door closing was my having her rushing to the camera.
BVB: So far you've tackled zombies, or zombies infected by bat bites, survival nuts, Satanists and ghosts. You seem very keen at hitting on things that really scare people. What else interests you?
TW: I've got about two, three horror ones left in me tops, then it's sort of time to move on. I made a promise to myself when I wrote the last one, that's going to be the last horror movie I write for awhile. I made six movies in the last seven years. At what point do you have anything left to say? You've got to do something else and come back to it.
BVB: Tell me about "Bedbugs." You've been hired to adapt the screenplay? Any chance you may direct as well?
TW: I have not started writing yet. I have the book. I have highlighted the book. Maybe, we'll see. I like the idea of letting somebody else go in and interpret it. I might write the script and get really attached to it and want to do it, who knows.
BVB: (WRITER'S NOTE: The conversation began to wind down, but BVB couldn't help but pepper West with a few final questions, mostly about his early influences, the career trajectory of other genre directors like John Carpenter who seemed capable of shifting genres from horror to action to whatever and other topics that we forgot to write down.)
TW: I think I grew up on 70s and 80s stuff. For what it's worth, when I'm making these horror movies, I'm not making them to watch people get killed. The technical stuff, the gore, has never been that interesting to me. Now I dread the days on set when we're doing effects, running the tubing. It's not fun, it's just technical work. It's more fun when you're younger. I know I can do it. It feels like old hat when you're doing it, and that gets a little boring.
BVB: (WRITER'S NOTE: Despite promising twice that the last question had been asked, BVB couldn't stop. We had to ask one final, final question about West's creative counterpart, Larry Fessenden, the actor/writer/director/producer and founding force behind Glass Eye Pix, which has produced most of West's work.)
TW: Larry and I are very close. We rarely ever think about whatever creative collaboration process. We're just friends. The way I pitched "The Innkeepers" to him: It's eating sandwiches out of aluminum foil in the break room. He said, 'I'm sold.' That's the stuff that's appealing to us.

Yes, I'm a witch I'm a bitch I don't care what you say,
My voice is real, my words speaks truth, I don't fit in your ways.
I'm not gonna die for you, you might as well face the truth
I'm gonna stick around for quite a while.
We're gonna say we're gonna try, we're gonna try it our way.
We've been repressed, we've been depressed, suppression all the way.
We're not gonna die for you, we're not seeking vengeance
But we're not gonna kill ourselves for your convenience.
Each time we don't say what we wanna say, we're dying.
Each time we close our minds to how we feel, we're dying.
Each time we gotta do what we wanna do, we're living.
Each time we're open to what we see and hear, we're living.
We'll free you from the ghettos of your minds,
We'll free you from your fears and binds
We know you want things to stay as it is
It's gonna change, baby.
It's gonna change, baby doll
It's gonna change, honey ball
It's gonna change, sugar cane
It's gonna change, sweetie legs
So don't try to make cock-pecked people out of us.

A Story is an album by Yoko Ono, recorded in 1974, during the "lost weekend" sessions in which John Lennon produced Walls And Bridges. The album went unreleased until the 1992 box set Onobox, which featured material from A Story on disc six. It only saw proper release as an individual album in 1997, with the re-issuing of Ono's back catalogue by Rykodisc.

Wrong's What I Do Best
Thursday, April 24 - Saturday, July 26, 2014
Walter and McBean Galleries
Opening Reception » Saturday, April 26 | 7–10 pm San Francisco Art Institute 800 Chestnut Street San Francisco, CA Curated by Hesse McGraw and Aaron Spangler |
The exhibition Wrong's What I Do Best takes its title from what was originally a George Jones anthem, and later a catchall for a generation of Hard Country performers. Jones and his outlaw brothers—Johnny Paycheck, David Allan Coe, Hank Williams—were known equally for their crafted stage personas and unhinged private lives. These sincerely deluded, tragicomic figures inhabited characters of their own making, to personal peril and kindling for public legend.
Wrong's What I Do Best gathers the self-searing impulses of artists and musicians playing the role of one's self as someone else. Working against both correctness and failure, Wrong's What I Do Best revels in repeated derailments to present the work of artists who prod the edges of our world. Some unearth scorched histories or upset "natural" order, while others fling themselves headlong into the coming apocalypse. Collectively, their low-irony tilt toward social, political, and personal fault lines might be characterized by illicit unrestraint, yet their lack of critical judgment occludes the artists' true selves. In the torrid gap between the artist-person and the artist-persona we are reminded that one shouldn't let the truth get in the way of a good story.

Title | An ultraviolet diode laser system for laser cooling trapped ytterbium ions |
Author | Cox, JA; Cetina, M; Kartner, FX; Kielpinski, David |
Publication Title | Proceedings of the 2006 IEEE International Frequency Control Symposium and Exposition |
Editor | M Driscoll |
Year Published | 2006 |
Abstract | We describe the design and performance of an ultraviolet diode laser system for laser cooling trapped ytterbium ions without frequency doubling. The performance is similar to resonantly doubled laser systems, but with greater efficiency, reduced size, expense and fragility. The system achieved laser cooling of ytterbium ions in a linear Paul trap to less than 270 mK. No shorter wavelength laser has previously been used for laser cooling. |

Friday, June 3, 2011 | Categories: Episodes , Interview Panel
Today's guest host was Bernard St. Laurent in Montreal.
Part One of The Current
It's Friday June 3rd.
A new poll finds that a majority of Canadians don't believe in corporate tax cuts or buying F-35 fighter jets, two major pieces of the Conservative government's plan.
Currently, I guess those same Canadians also don't believe in actually voting.
This is the Current.
Harper in Quebec
It used to be if you wanted to form a majority government in Canada, you needed to win Quebec. Well, after last month's election results that's clearly not the case anymore. The Conservatives won a majority of ridings across the country. But in Quebec, they dropped from 11 to 5 seats.
Today's Throne Speech will outline the Prime Minister's priorities for this new session of Parliament. Many Quebecers feel Mr. Harper has abandoned them and that includes members of the Prime Minister's own party.
Peter White is a longtime Quebec Conservative. He's President of the Brome Missisquoi Conservative Association. He was also Principal Secretary to Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. And he joined Bernie in our Montreal studio. Manon Cornellier is a columnist with Le Devoir. She was in Ottawa this morning. And David Staples is the City columnist for the Edmonton Journal.

Women and Hollywood: How did you come up with the idea for the film?
Larysa Kondracki: I am a Ukrainian Canadian, and the issue of sex-trafficking was very much being discussed in my community. My mother handed me a book, and I was very much drawn to the subject. But it was when I read about Kathy's story that I was blown away by how widespread a crime this was. The corruption and cover-up within the UN, US State Department and other international governments was stupefying. I couldn't believe a film hadn't already been made.
WaH: Did you always know that you would direct the film?
LK: Yes. The script was read by several agencies, and we were pitched a lot of amazing directors, but I knew this was my story. I hung on to it, and never gave it away. It just made sense to do this.WaH: For a first time director you were able to get such an amazing cast. How did that happen?
LK: That's true. I think at the end of the day, it was ultimately the story. Here's a chance to play real, nuanced characters. That was what the cast was attracted to. There's a dearth of great roles, and I think especially so for women. I was humbled, but also excited to see that actors are really just searching for great projects, not necessarily big pay-checks or sure hits. Everyone wants to challenge themselves, and this was definitely a challenge. I think that's exciting for any artist.
WaH: It's very hard for people to see films about tough subjects especially in the summer. Why will your film be different?
LK: Ultimately, this is a thriller. It's a Robert Ludlum plot, really. Is she gonna get the girl. People can hear the words BOSNIA and SEX-TRAFFICKING, and that may sound tough. But this is a classic David and Goliath yarn. A woman in the center of a huge conspiracy. At the end of the day, it's a great story about an ordinary woman who does an extraordinary thing.
WaH: There have been many documentaries on sex trafficking and very few features. How can a feature make people aware of an issue in a way a doc can't?
LK: That's a hard question to answer, and I don't think there's a straight-forward answer. It depends on a story. I don't think MARCH OF THE PENGUINS would make a good live-action feature. But it was a great movie. This film is inspired by Kathryn Bolkovac, who did an extraordinary thing. It's not just about a subject matter. She's a great character.
WaH: What was the hardest part about making this film?
LK: At the end of the day, what makes a film hard to make, is probably the reason you're making it in the first place.
WaH: What do you want people to think about when they leave the theatre?
LK: That one person can make a difference. And there's no excuse for complacency.
WaH: What advice do you have for other female directors?
LK: Don't think to hard about it. You aren't a "female director". You're a director. Just do it.
WaH: What's next for you?
LK: I have two projects. One is a script that Eilis Kirwan, my co-writer on THE WHISTLEBLOWER wrote. It's an adaptation of a book called BURNING RAINBOW FARM. A kind of THELMA & LOUISE meets BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID story about two guys in Michigan who fought to live their life their way. The other is an original story called BORDERLAND, which is an epic-horror fantasy set during World War II.

I have just viewed The Whistleblower.
This year I heard news of Whistleblowers being imprisoned! It sickens me.
This Film was new on Red Box Rentals yesterday, so I investigated, since I'd never heard the film promoted anywhere.
This film's subject matter sickens me worse.
Has there been any "change" since this film's release ~ besides the sending home of perps w/immunity?
Is there a bigger picture of what, if anything, can be produced to teach young women, in particular, to avoid these "tempting invitations" that sound too good to be true, and end up so dreadfully?
Anyway we can help from here?
I'm changed since viewing this SAD AND SHOCKING film.
Good Job!

Wait, wasn't that the name of the alien from those Halloween episodes of the Simpsons?

Virginia state game officials are warning cat owners that their cats might be more at risk of being attacked by coyotes in the spring than any other time during the year because coyotes are hunting to feed their pups.
Coyote sightings are common in the spring, according to Dan Lovelace, a district wildlife biologist with the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries.
The coyote is an opportunistic predator and feeds on small animals such as mice, rabbits, fox and cats. Domestic animals, especially small cats, might be at an increased risk during coyotes' hunting season. The game department cautions against leaving cats outside unattended.
Also, because coyotes' home territories may overlap, there might be more than one family group hunting in a specific area. Lovelace said that there is no way to gauge the number of the cat predators living in the area, but coyote populations have been increasing in the area for several years "and they are definitely here to stay."
Residents can help keep coyotes away from their homes by removing outdoor food sources, such as pet food for domestic animals, according to the game department. Cat owners also should secure garbage-can lids to keep coyotes from overturning cans for an easy meal.
Game officials also recommend that people defend their homes when coyotes approach. They suggest that people "yell, throw non-edible objects in the direction of the coyote or otherwise let the animal know it is not welcome," according to the department's website.

I lost 3 cats in a 2 month period to coyotes this past spring, i now have cat guard up on my block wall so my cats can not get out of the yard but i am now wondering if i have to worry about owls or hawks, any advice?
Jason Hummelstowm, PA
Donna, oh how completely wrong you are. Read the wikipedia article on cats. Cats have basic instincts for surviving in the wild, even domestic cats. Your household cat doesnt lose its instincts just because it resides indoors. I would say you do not care about your pet. You dont let it run free and enjoy the outdoors where it comes from naturally - you keep it penned up and sheltered inside. You need to educate yourself before telling others what they need educated on.
donna montgomery, HI
Cat owners should keep their cat inside at all times. One does not love or care for their pet by letting their pet exposed to the outdoors. Coyotes are just another part of wildlife surviving. People need to be educated when owning a pet, as housecats are not wildlife proper
Sylvia Orchard Park, NY
This is a good article and pet owners should take heed. I thought coyotes were a "western" animal not coming here. I've seen them in upstate new york in densely populated areas. At first I thought it was a scrawny small shepherd dog but someone told me they were coyotes. They are quick and unafraid and do come up to a house even with a barking dog inside. Thanks for always being in the know Catchannel!

Did you spend the whole week trying to unravel The Secrets of Her Past?
Here's what you missed on the RT website:
Don't you just love hanging out with other booklovers and unleashing your inner fangirl and fanboy over your favorite authors? We sure do, which is why we're pretty stoked about tomorrow's Authors in the City event here in New York City at the New York Marriott Downtown! Organized and hosted by Stephanie from Stephanie's Book Reports, this all day event is not to be missed.
But what exactly is Authors in the City? Well, it's an all day event aimed at bringing readers and authors together for one giant book party. There are over 80 romance authors attending, including Jay Crownover, Shayla Black and Emma Chase. The main event is the four hour book signing from 1 to 6 PM, which will provide ample time for the close to 400 attendees to geek out and meet their literary idols. Following the signing, there'll be a meet and greet, including food and an awards ceremony.
But that's not all! A few of the authors are bringing their hunky cover models! Don't worry, we'll be taking lots of photos for those who can't make it.
The Internet is full of hilarious gems and memorable words of wisdom from the masses. Authors, readers and publishers on Twitter are no exception and continuously put smiles on the faces of Twitter users daily in 140 characters or less. We've started compiling our favorite Tweets.
This week we dedicate Tweethearts to everyone who says that authors are 'just like everyone else'.
Self-publishing is a brave new world, and we're here to help you navigate it with our monthly column, Self-Pub Like a Pro. This month we're tackling the ever-important cover design. Covers are such a big deal we're bringing you the insight of not one, but two, accomplished cover artists. Today with us is Frauke Spanuth, owner and creative director for Croco Designs. We hope you enjoy all Frauke has to say, and come back next week for part two!
What should a self-published author keep in mind when working with a cover artist?
As a self-published author you are also in charge of all tasks a publisher usually takes care of. You have to keep a publication schedule as well as a budget in mind, so availability and pricing may be most important for you. But please keep in mind that if a cover is poorly executed, people may also think your book is of poor quality. It's said that one should not judge a book by its cover, but very often people still do.
That's it, we're calling it. 2014 is the year of New Orleans in book publishing. There are so many sexy, spooky, spectacular NOLA-set books being put out this year, we'd be planning a trip — if we weren't already going for this year's RT Convention! Today two New Orleans-inspired authors, Mur Lafferty and Kristen Painter, share what makes the Big Easy such a ripe setting for fiction and their recent releases, Lafferty's Ghost Train to New Orleans and Painter's House of the Rising Sun.
New Orleans has a special connection with vampires — how did you tackle that particular creature in your book?
Mur Lafferty: I actually didn't, for the most part. My main vampire characters were the ones who came from New York City, and NOLA vampires were bit parts. But my vampires are pretty standard — drink blood, powerful ones can fly, they're faster than people, can mesmerize. I did cover more vampires in the travel guide sections in the book, telling some of the local history from the POVs of various monsters.
What do you do when the growing number of new reads causes your wallet to shrink uncomfortably? Shop the e-book deals, of course! In this column we highlight some of our favorite book buys that will cost you less than a medium-sized coffee. All prices listed are accurate at the time of this blog's posting.

Booze, sunshine, skimpy clothes and, of course, hook ups with hot guys! What could be better? The four authors of Avon's latest erotic new adult anthology, Spring Fling, agree, as they've each contributed a story young women spending their spring breaks in New Orleans — we couldn't think of a better setting — and finding true love — or just some hot, hot loving. With the upcoming RT Booklovers Convention in New Orleans this May, we asked each author to share their favorite New Orleans hot spots. Because who knows, maybe we'll relive a spring break moment or two. (We behaved, Mom, we swear.)
Julia Kent: The allure of Maison Bourbon, New Orleans' notorious jazz club, isn't the music. What draws me in is the sense of timelessness, of enormity. Those first hesitant steps across the threshold of a jazz bar in the wee hours of the night make me feel like I'm crossing over into world unknown. The music turns into my own pulse as my senses take over. The air is redolent of a part of myself I know I possess, but that is too buried to be known just yet.
Besides the fantastic food and rich history, New Orleans is most famous for Mardi Gras. And although this year's festivities are now sadly over, RT Convention attendees can still experience the celebrations by joining us on Wednesday, May 14 at 7:15pm** for Mardi Gras World Carnivále! This all-night extravaganza is co-sponsored by a host of today's leading publishers, and you will not want to miss it. Trust us.
Attendees will get an intimate look at the floats used in the Mardi Gras parade.
Ah, classic literary fiction. It can be so wonderful, but at times dense, leaving us wishing for a guide to lead us through the venerable prose. Enter: Italian artist and writer Francesco D'Isa, who reviews the classics in a candid, tongue-in-cheek (and very short) way. We're happy to bring his column, "Very Short Reviews of Difficult Books," to English language readers! Check back here every Wednesday for three new reviews from Francesco.
Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace
A world just a bit more extreme than ours created by a talented writer who will hold your attention for many pages — but not all of them. Tons of footnotes in a book with so many pages made me stop reading at page six hundred-and-something.
Plot: In an allegorical world where everyone's on drugs, some allegorical (and addicted) characters are looking for the ultimate drug.
Rating: 73 out of 100.
