Raymond Hart Massey was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on Aug. 30, 1896. He was the son of Ann and Chester Daniel Massey, whose family roots could be traced back to pre-Revolutionary War America. Although Raymond participated in a few school productions while attending the Appleby School in Oakville, Ontario, the assumption was that he would eventually enter into his well-to-do family's farm equipment business upon completing his education. As a member of the Canadian Officer's Training Corps while attending the University of Toronto when World War I began, he was commissioned as a lieutenant in the Canadian Army. Massey served with a field artillery unit at France's Western Front until he was wounded at Ypres in 1916. Hospitalized for several months and diagnosed with shell shock, he was later sent to the U.S., where he served as an artillery instructor for a time before rejoining the Canadian Expeditionary Forces in 1918 and being sent to Siberia in the wake of the Russian Communist Revolution. While stationed at Vladivostok, Massey was put in charge of entertainment for the troops, for whom he mounted several theatrical productions. In later years, the venerable actor related that it was then that the performing bug truly bit him, once and for all.
Upon being discharged, Massey attended Britain's Balliol College, Oxford. The stay at Oxford was not a long one, however, and before long he was back home in Canada, where he attempted to make a go of it in the family business. But the thrill of the theater still called to Massey, who, upon the advice of renowned thespian John Drew and after pleading for permission from his patriarchal Methodist father, returned to England to pursue a career on the stage. Eventually the determined actor landed his first professional role in a 1922 production of Eugene O'Neill's "In the Zone" and from that point forward, there was no looking back. Within four years, Massey was established on the stages of London as both an actor and director, and in less than a decade, he made trip back across the Atlantic for his Broadway debut as the star of a revival of Shakespeare's "Hamlet" in 1931.
Although he had made a pair of brief, uncredited screen appearances two years prior, Massey's first major film role was as Sherlock Holmes in the mystery "The Speckled Band" (1931), the first talkie to depict the exploits of the great detective. Other leading roles soon came in films like director James Whale's superb "The Old Dark House" (1932), opposite Boris Karloff. Massey's imposing features also allowed him to adapt easily to more villainous roles, such as the slithering Chauvelin in "The Scarlet Pimpernel" (1935). Massey had far from abandoned work on the stage, though, appearing on Broadway many times over the next two decades and earning accolades for such portrayals as "Ethan Frome" in 1936. Back on screen, he showed his bad side twice more as Black Michael opposite David Niven's "The Prisoner of Zenda" (1937) and as the conniving Prince Ghul in the British Empire epic, "The Drum" (1938). At 6'3" tall, Massey was perfectly suited to play the legendarily lanky commander-in-chief in the Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway play "Abe Lincoln in Illinois" (1938) which was written specifically with the actor in mind by playwright Robert Sherwood.
Massey's personal life took a decidedly truth-is-stranger-than-fiction turn in 1939 when he and his wife of 10 years, actress Adrianne Allen, entered into divorce proceedings. Massey and Allen were each represented by one-half of the husband and wife legal team of William and Dorothy Whitney. With the divorce finalized, the attorneys quickly divorced each other and went on to marry their respective famous clients - Massey and Allen. The bizarre turn of events later inspired husband and wife screenwriting team of Ruth Gordon and Garson Kanin to pen the classic 1949 battle of the sexes comedy "Adam's Rib," starring Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn. During their time as a couple, Massey and Allen had two children, Daniel and Anna, both of whom went on to enjoy acting careers of their own.
The following year, Massey reprised his most famous stage persona in the film version of "Abe Lincoln in Illinois" (1940), for which he received an Academy Award nomination. He took on another historical figure that year with a wild-eyed, unsympathetic portrayal of the radical abolitionist John Brown in "Santa Fe Trail" (1940), starring Errol Flynn as Confederate Civil War hero J.E.B. Stuart. Working steadily throughout the war years, Massey took over the role his "Old Dark House" co-star Boris Karloff had originated on stage for director Frank Capra's film adaptation of the play "Arsenic and Old Lace" (1944), then lent his intimidating visage to the role of a stern prosecutor in the Heaven-set sequences of the imaginative Michael Powell-Emeric Pressburger fantasy, "A Matter of Life and Death" (1945). Maintaining his ties to the stage, the actor returned to Broadway to play Professor Henry Higgins in the 1945 production of "Pygmalion."
Other notable work of the period included a performance as General Ezra Mannon - an updated version of Greek King Agamemnon - in "Mourning Becomes Electra" (1947), the screen adaptation of O'Neill's epic reinterpretation of "The Oresteia," a trilogy of Greek tragedies by Aeschylus. He was sympathetic as the well-meaning but weak-willed newspaper magnate Gail Wynand in director King Vidor's adaptation of author Ayn Rand's treatise on individuality, "The Fountainhead" (1949), starring Gary Cooper as visionary architect Howard Roark. Still at the height of his powers, Massey was excellent years later as the proud and emotionally distant patriarch Adam Trask opposite James Dean in the filmed version of Steinbeck's "East of Eden" (1955) and delivered a far more balanced portrayal in his second outing as John Brown in the under-appreciated "Seven Angry Men" (1955).
By the second half of the decade, Massey transitioned more predominantly into the burgeoning medium of television, appearing in guest spots on many of the popular anthology series of the day, such as "General Electric Theater" (CBS, 1953-1962). The venerable stage and film star became widely known by a new generation of audience as the gruff but caring Dr. Gillespie on the popular medical-drama "Dr. Kildare" (NBC, 1961-66), featuring a fresh-faced Richard Chamberlain in the title role. Fans of his work as the stern taskmaster Gillespie may not have been surprised when Massey made his personal politics known by actively campaigning for Republican presidential candidate Barry Goldwater during the 1964 race against incumbent Lyndon B. Johnson.
Long established as an elder statesman of screens both large and small, Massey continued to appear in projects, albeit with less frequency as the '60s drew to a close. His final performance in a feature film was as a fortune-hunting preacher in the Gregory Peck Western "Mackenna's Gold" (1969). This was followed a few years later by his last television appearances in the political-thriller "The President's Plane is Missing" (ABC, 1973) and the family film "My Darling Daughter's Anniversary" (ABC, 1973), starring one of his contemporaries, Robert Young. After battling a case of pneumonia for nearly a month, Massey died at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles on July 29, 1983, just weeks shy of his 87th birthday. Somewhat overshadowing the sad event was the passing of actor David Niven, Massey's "Prisoner of Zenda" co-star, who died that same day.

The Holiday where Christians will adorn their white robes to deliver salvation to the evil devil children Halloween by giving them Bibles instead of Candy.
It started yesterday when my Sister, who knows and hates that I'm atheist, asked me what I was doing for Halloween. Instantly I knew something was off because my Sister is just too Jesus-y to celebrate such an evil Holiday.Oh, she dresses her boyfriend's kids up (as angels, knights, & princesses) all right but then she ruins it by taking them to the church so they can pray to Jesus. Oh joy!
When I was a kid she did that to me but bitched the entire time because I dressed up as a zombie devil princess and I ate candy during prayer. What can I say I was eight!.
Anyways I told her I wasn't going to have time to do anything this year because the guys were working that night. So I would be home alone watching every horror movie in my arsenal of awesome in the dark. She scoffed at the mention of my horror movies and asked me if instead I would like to join her for ……. Jesus-Ween…..
Jesus-Ween; where Jesus gets your candy and you get a book. After she went on about it for several minutes I set my phone down and looked it up myself… To my horror she wasn't lying. After a quick glance over of their web site I just had to ask her.
"Carol, let me ask you a question"
"How many kids typically come to your door where you live?"
"I don't know, maybe 60 -70 kids, why?"
"You do realize you're going to have to fork out $140 bucks to have enough Bibles to cover just the kids that show up at your door"
*SIGH* "You mean to tell me your going to fork out $140 dollars plus shipping to some Religious group that doesn't have to pay taxes, just so you can hand out Bibles to little kids?"
"YEAH, what's wrong with that?"
"A lot! If I was a kid and you handed me a Bible instead of candy I would hit you with it then TP your entire house and yard".
"OMG, what is wrong with you Halloween is filled with sin and you have the chance to do something good for it".
"Oh you're funny; I am doing a lot of good by not subjecting children to that horrible book or making some jerk off rich but good luck with that".
Personally I now feel like getting all my friends to dress up as Jesus, their kids included, and we all go hit up these Jesus-ween houses.
If we're out trick-or-treating and get handed a Bible, should we have the Satantic Bible handy to hand back? Or the Qur'an? Or--even better--have copies Origin of Species! Or maybe just have the kid practice and say something to the effect of, "No thanks. I'm not into fairy tales anymore" and then hand the Bible back.
THAT SOUNDS LIKE FUN! I have another version though. Why don't we all dress up like the Flying Spaghetti Monster and we hand kids spaghetti and meatballs instead of candy. Then, we tell the kids to go and TP the houses and yards of those who gave 'books'. Come on is a good idea, and think how much spaghetti and meat balls one can make with $140 (it's more cost efficient).
I just can't believe these people! They're clearly running out of ideas.
lol!!! YES! Just little sandwich bags full of lukewarm spaghetti!!! instead of TP, why not noodle their houses?! just sprinkle all sorts of noodles as a kind of blessing (like holy water or lamb's blood). I'm sure they'll thank us when the FSM passes by and does not kill their first born ;)
ramen & ramen
Just as long as we don't get any wise guys trying to pass out fettucini ...blasphemy at its worst.
Well of course no fettucini! That would require at least 50 hail FSMs, or 3 lashes with the angel hair noodle!
i thought jesus ween was christ-mass. or soter-easter.
Its a nice fantasy, Dustin, but think of the therapy bills.
as a miserable old englishman i applaud this celbration of jesus's weiner. sure it'll cost a lot for all those bibles but think of it as an investment. it'll be years before any of the little scrotes come begging at my door again
wow lol. This doesn't surprise me. The first thing that came to mind was that person that wanted to take the "hell" out of hello so they started saying heaveno as a greeting... christians love taking things and changing them into their own, you know like money, christmas, easter, ect. ect. I would be pissed if I got a bible; at least with raisins you can eat them for sustenance in a pinch.
Her house will get egged and TP'd. And when it does, I reccomend informing her that you told her so.

"John left and I had Jonah and I felt like I had a hole in me like rocket man, starting between my legs and going right up inside me.

Houston copied that and so I did. For a little while. But after a little while it felt like a long while. John came back and my children were good and my status was good but I felt the moon calling."

"In a last, desperate attempt to recapture our imaginations, Madeline began posting pictures of herself with dead celebrities like Michael Jackson, Marilyn Monroe, even Benjamin Franklin. But they were doing things like high-fiving, watching TV, and playing darts. As a community, we agreed it was in bad taste."
"The squirrels may take my tomatoes and spit them back, but they would not go unanswered. The time had come to close the circle of life."
A look at Chicago's DJ culture in the '90s.
One day in 1997, Sneak promised his friend and fellow Chicago DJ Derrick Carter a new 12-inch for Carter's label Classic, then spent hours fruitlessly laboring over a basic, bustling four-four beat. Finally, Sneak gave in and smoked the J he'd had stashed for later in the day. When he came back inside, he carelessly dropped the needle onto a Teddy Pendergrass LP, heard the word "Well . . . ," and realized, "That's the sample, right there." He threaded Pendergrass's 20-year-old disco hit "You Can't Hide From Yourself" through a low-pass filter to give it the effect of going in and out of aural focus, creating one of the definitive Chicago house singles.

Belvedere Travel Tips
Enjoy San Francisco in Belvedere Vacation Rentals
With spectacular views of the San Francisco Bay area and the Golden Gate Bridge, Belvedere, California consists of two islands with Belvedere Lagoon nestled between them. If your vacation includes San Francisco Bay Area travel and you are searching for Belvedere lodging, you'll want to consider staying in a vacation rental. You can enjoy the beauty of Belvedere, a picturesque sailing community with carefully preserved trees, and live like a local when you opt for Belvedere vacation rentals.
A Unique Belvedere Lodging Option
Belvedere vacation rentals provide a unique and personal way to enjoy the surrounding area. You'll feel right at home in a vacation rental that provides amenities like free WiFi access, views of the ocean and city lights, private balconies, and more. Essentially, you will feel like you're more at home than you would in a hotel. While it may seem like this kind of luxury could be pricey, a Belvedere vacation rental is a reasonably priced option, particularly if you are hosting a large group. You can enjoy your vacation time together in a more private atmosphere with Belvedere vacation rentals.
Attractions for Everyone
Staying in Belvedere vacation rentals puts you in close proximity to everything that the area has to offer.

Belvedere lodging also guarantees that you're close to all that the San Francisco Bay area has to offer, including the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz tours. Of course, San Francisco Bay Area travel wouldn't be complete without a trip to Fisherman's Wharf, Pier 49, and Ghirardelli Square, where visitors can browse souvenir shops, sample famous sourdough bread and chocolate, and enjoy the beauty of the San Francisco Bay.

A refined and versatile snare from Tama offering the deep, layered warmth of bubinga with the attack of birch.
Tama Starclassic Performer B/B snare drums offer a fusion of tonewoods loved and embraced by percussionists the world over. With a thin layer of birch on the outer layer of the shell delivering a signature punch, a heavy-duty layer of full-toned and resonant African bubinga makes up the inner shell. The use of the thicker, harder bubinga accentuates birch's distinct tone and projection. This snare drum also features Tama's MCS70B basic butt assembly with large 6mm screws for maximum durability.
The combination of the two creates a more powerful, deeply rounded sound like no other!

Thanksgiving weather can take a roller coaster ride
The high temperature of 61 degrees on Thanksgiving under deep blue skies and light wind was optimal weather for those traveling to or from Grandma's for the big feast. But, years past haven't always been so beautiful while others have been a bit balmy!
The coldest Thanksgiving was in 1902 when the high was only 18 degrees. The most snow ever on the big day was in 1989 when 1.9 inches blanketed the ground. As a matter of fact, it only has snowed six times on Thanksgiving in the District, so don't place any bets on future White Thanksgivings!
The following table shows high temperatures for Thanksgiving going back to 2006.
November 23, 2006 | 59 degrees |
November 22, 2007 | 77 degrees |
November 27, 2008 | 49 degrees |
November 26, 2009 | 51 degrees |
November 25, 2010 | 55 degrees |
November 24, 2011 | 61 degrees |
Average High on Thanksgiving in the past 6 years | 59 degrees |
30-Year Average High for Late November | 54 degrees |
All bets are on for a stellar holiday weekend going forward with highs climbing well into the 60s and even hitting 70 degrees south of the Potomac. The only fly in the ointment will be late day showers Sunday as a cold front passes through. Be safe and have a wonderful remainder of your holiday weekend!

Where is fuel pump relay on 09 Silverado?
Want to install a Meziere electric water pump on my 09 Silverado, but I can't find the fuel pump relay. The fuel pump relay socket at the Under Hood Electrical Panil is EMPTY. Where did they put the fuel pump relay on the 09s? I want to trigger the relay for my electric water pump off of the fuel pump relay, but I can't find it.

NFRIA-WSERC Conservation Center has received letters of support from the Paonia Town Council for two of its projects. The approval came at the Sept. 11 town council meeting.
NWCC director Sarah Sauter was present to explain the projects. The first letter of support was for a trail project grant at the Paonia River Park. The town had given a letter of support for this same project in the fall of 2011. That grant application was turned down by the Colorado State Parks State Trails Program. In its new application for this fall, NWCC is seeking the grant for trail design and to build the trails at the river park. Sauter said they had received excellent feedback on their first application and are optimistic about this application.
In the town's letter, Mayor Neal Schwieterman wrote, "The Board of Trustees of the Town of Paonia, supports the development of the river park trails for Paonia and area citizens. Projects like this are an improvement in our community and add to the quality of life found here in the North Fork Valley."
The second request was for the town's support in NWCC's application for a Great Outdoors Colorado-Funded Youth Corps Crew.
In this letter, Mayor Schwieterman wrote, "The Conservation Center has been successful in completing projects such as this in the past, and we fully expect them to continue developing the River Park for greater access and enjoyment by the public. We endorse this unique opportunity to employ young people, build recreational trails, and increase access to public lands and open spaces."
Sauter said ideally the youth corps would work up to two weeks on trail building. This could include opportunities for local youth.
The council voted unanimously to send both letters of support.

Uptown clients with downtown ideas
Wayne Nathan from Memphis and Carol Egan from Dublin are two talented New york interior designers who together make up NathanEgan. The company was launched in 2000, inspiring 'uptown clients with downtown ideas' (according to W Magazine).
Their interior design style consists of a refined, eclectic mix of contemporary and classic furnishings. I love the elegance and sophistication of the finished looks…
Simple but effective- this layout is ideal for the hallway or to fill a corner.
Not quite the sophisticated look but this dreamy wallpaper transports me to lands far away!
I've always had a soft spot for floor-to-ceiling wardrobes… just stunning!
Natural light creates the illusion of space. This ceiling window is fabulous
Open plan rooms are so very modern and very now. Of course, the sheer size of this home adds to the feeling of luxury and extravagance. I'm not too sure if I would want an open kitchen though… what about the cooking smells seeping through the house?!
Less is definitely more in this room. Keeping colours simple and neutral give a light and airy feel- a natual look similar to New England style.

"Lieneke is an excellent instructor.
She will not let you fail if you want to succeed! She takes the time necessary for each person to understand and allows time to question it all. Best of all she isn't afraid to get in (the water) and show you what she expects.
She is well versed in all aspects of her field, which allows her to make it more fun and interpersonal.
I highly recommend her!"

If you havent done so already, visit Zoo Miami and see our new baby pygmy hippo Asali. Not only will you fall in love with her on the spot, but youll be so tempted to steal and take her home with you! Yes, shes that adorable.
Pygmy hippos are considerably smaller than Nile hippos, which reach up to several thousand pounds when fully grown. They are solitary animals and the only long-lasting bond is that between mother and calf. Nocturnal, pygmy hippos are rare to find in the wild and unheard of outside West Africa until the 19th century. It wasnt until the 20th century that they were brought into zoo collections. Interestingly enough, research has shown that pygmy hippos are most closely related to whales and dolphins. They secrete a substance over their bodies that looks like sweat, gives them a pinkish hue, has antiseptic and sunscreen protection, and makes them quite slippery.
Their courting process is quite interesting, as the two swim around in circles in the yin yang position for about an hour. Kim explains that, this way, they two have visual contact at all times and aggressive or defensive behaviors can be detected. When ready, the female will bob her head in a submissive-type behavior, and lay down on her belly to let the male know she is receptive to mate and allows him to mount her.
After mating, the female proceeds to attack the male, at which point they are separated and led to their individual pools. During mating, their keepers maintain the paddock gates open to give the hippos an out if they so desire.
I asked Kim how they knew Kelsey was pregnant and she told me that, Kelsey stopped cycling, her belly and teats dropped, and the male stopped vocalizing. Her pregnancy lasted 201 days and she, a first-time mother, gave birth to a healthy calf.
During Kelseys birth, one of the zoos vets, Dr. Christine Miller and the night keeper, Kresimir Golenja, were present. Although this was her first baby, Kelsey did almost everything correctly and was a real trooper.
I was doing hourly rounds of Kelsey as we knew she was about ready to give birth, says Kresimir. Around 11:15 p.m., I noticed a little hoof sticking out under her tail. I immediately contacted Dr. Miller, who happened to be on the zoo grounds, and mentioned the situation to her. She advised she wanted to take a look to make sure Kelseys first birth was proceeding without complications. I went to pick her up and when we got back to Kelsey, the baby had been born and both had moved from the hay where Id left Kelsey, to under the sprinkler that had been set up for her. The umbilical cord was still attached and Dr. Miller and I watched as the baby stood up, wobbled away from Kelsey, and the cord stretched until it broke.
Although everything seemed to be going well, Kresimir says there was a crucial moment when Kelsey unknowingly sat on the baby and we thought she would crush her. Dr. Miller tapped Kelsey on her rump and Kelsey stood and moved away. The baby started exhibiting some difficulty walking her back legs seemed weak and in pain but she recovered and was walking normally soon thereafter. Dr. Miller and I continued to watch her until about 1:30 a.m., says Kresimir. The next morning, the hippos regular keepers took over the watch and reported everything was going well. Asali was nursing, bonding with Kelsey, and has been thriving ever since, much to everyones delight.
Kelsey is very protective of Asali, and you will usually find them swimming, eating, or just tucked in a corner of their exhibit pool, together again reaffirming their bond although Asali is becoming more independent by the day and ventures out on her own more and more.
Born without teeth, hippos start growing them a few weeks after birth. Their front teeth, known as tusks, grow into about six inches of razor-sharp weapons. What are their main predators? Leopards. Kim adds that, unfortunately, these beautiful animals are victim to loss of habitat and man who poach them for their meat.

Pushing Daisies
Freaks and Geeks
Pushing Daisies
The mind of the performer is a very strange thing.
~James Galway
Pushing Daisies. Lee Page and Kristin Chenoweth were amazing.
i wish pushing daisies had stayed around if only for the occasional cheno song
I feel like I'm in a dream. But it can't be a dream because there are no boy dancers!
I forgot to list Pushing Daisies! I loved that one too.
An MLB.com reporter asked what one thing Votto couldnt do. I cant skate or play hockey, Votto said. Well, I can skate ... but I cant stop.
"I guess I'm just...I'm not used to someone putting me first." -Emma, Once Upon a Time, episode 2x3, Lady of the Lake
Oh, I forgot about Pushing Daisies, probably because they did have a chance to at least wrap things up. Better off Ted was awesome too. I watched the whole thing on Netflix all at once.
Delete. Wrong Thread.
Kings---it was on NBC a few years ago, and was a modern telling of the Biblical story of Saul and David. I loved the show, and it's one of the few shows I have on DVD.
'Life's hard. It's even harder when you're stupid.'--John Wayne
I always preferred Scott but I think that mainly had to do with the actor that played him. Anyone else probably would've taken the character in a more distasteful direction, but I think Kevin O'Rourke did an admirable job in making Scott a rakish scoundrel that actually had a heart.
Personally, I hoped at the end that both Victor and Scott would've turned to Betty and told her that due to her wishy-washy nature, they were both dumping her and she could curl up next to her typewriter every night. They were going to go fight after Maple instead.
I liked Betty, I guess because I liked the whole "naive young intern ends up den mother to a pack of lunatics" thing. (And could identify with it a little. ) But Scott and Maple would have made a good couple. Or Scott and Hilary. I actually liked the Jeff-Hilary-Scott triangle more than I ever liked the Victor-Betty-Scott one, and I like to think they would have moved in that direction if they'd had another season.
By the way, John Bedford Lloyd and Kevin O'Rourke ended up on the same episode of Blue Bloods a while back. I squeaked when I realized they were both there. O'Rourke's been on there a few times . . . as a priest! Pretty un-Scott-like. The only way Scott ever would have been dressed as a priest would be for a scam. I do agree he's a really good and personable actor.
Charter member of the "We Always Believed in Ashley" Club and the "We Believe in Ricky" Club
An APTN soap opera set in a First Nations casino called "Cashing In." When I watched the last episode on DVD, I felt as if I had eaten the last potato chip out of the bag.
Cigarettes are like squirrels. They are perfectly harmless until you put one in your mouth and light it on fire. -- @ciggybuttz on Twitter
Sportsnight--love me some Sorkin!
Joan of Arcadia--Too many notes from suits screwed this show up
Terriers--one season on FX and they dumped it. I loved the show and the charactors
Cafe Americain'--Old Valerie Bertinelli show that was essentially Cheers set in Paris. Great concept, nobody but me saw it
Just shoot me.
Another vote for Firefly
Also, a show back to the mid to late 80s, Crossbow, a show about the adventures of William Tell starring Will Lyman and Jeremy Clyde. At least I've been able to find some episodes posted on Youtube
Agree re Freaks and Geeks and My So Called Life, however ...
Agree - another show I LOVED that only lasted a season was Swingtown - but Trina found out she was pregnant in the last ep, and part of me is glad not to have seen where that went.
I remember that show! Really great cast.
Another night time show that had great possibilities and didn't make even to a full season was Central Park West - another great cast.
The one that always comes to mind when this question comes up is the very short lived American Embassy. They didn't even show all the eps that were filmed - barely had a chance, and yet it was full of possibility.
Roswell - they should ave had one more season to wrap up the show
Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none. William Shakespeare
The Unusuals -- <= because, Jeremy Renner (plus it was a great quirky show)
Keen Eddie
And honestly, Zero Hour deserved more than 3 episodes. It was a train wreck of a show, but entertaining in a cracked out sort of way
I can't believe anyone else even remembers this show!!! I LOVED it when I was young, and was in a million depressions when it was cancelled. Adrian Pasdar is the ultimate sexy bad guy!
Also agree with everyone who said Pan Am.
Honestly, this is why I will very very rarely watch a new show. If I love it, it'll get cancelled.
I remember Profit too - quite unique I thought.
Another different one was Grapevine back in 1992 - only lasted a few eps, featured people talking to the camera long before Modern Family. Amusing for Survivor fans as well - Penner was in it.
Blade: The Series
Dark Shadows(1991) w/ Ben Cross as Barnabas Jones
"My bronze feels like gold, said the bronze medalist Carolina Kostner
Also, I wanted to add Kindred: The Embraced series(1987). I remember the lead actor Mark Frankel died in a motorcycle accident shortly after the show ended. He was an absolutely beautiful man.

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- A Cheektowaga family got a better present Christmas morning than it could ever have imagined.
Dan and Casandra Price welcomed Dakota Levi, their third child, into the world early Tuesday at Women's and Children's Hospital. He was supposed to be born in January.
The Prices, however, didn't mind the disruption to their holiday plans.
"We were going about our Christmas plans as usual and then he decided he was ready to come last night about 10 o'clock so. It all happened really fast," parents Dan and Casandra Price said.
Dakota was one of four babies born on Christmas at Women and Children's Hospital.

Research -
My research has been focused on identifying the complement of functional neuronal nicotinic and muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (AChR) in the retina, describing the expression patterns of these receptors and determining how the activation of the cholinergic system in the retina shapes ganglion cell responses. It has been known for more than 30 years that acetylcholine (ACh) is synthesized and released in the retina. However, ACh in the retina has been mostly studied in terms of its involvement in directional selectivity and the role of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor activation in early stage retinal waves. That ACh release affects the response properties of many types of ganglion cells through the activation of both nicotinic and muscarinic AChRs has also long been established, but until recently little has been known about the receptors involved, or the mechanisms by which these effects are mediated. Our research is focused on understanding the role of ACh as modulator of GC outputs. Understanding the fundamentals of visual processing in healthy retinas will allow for insight into the effects of decreased ACh in Alzheimer's disease and the use of cholinesterase inhibitors in treatment of disease.
Specific research questions that I have addressed include defining which physiologically and morphologically defined ganglion cell types express nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs); which subtypes of nAChRs are expressed in the retina; to what extent receptor activation changes the response properties of the ganglion cells; and whether the receptors are confined to synaptic locations. I published the first report clearly demonstrating that the a7 nAChR subtype is functional in adult mammalian retina. More recently my research has explored how modulation of bipolar cell and amacrine cell responses through both the nicotinic and muscarinic cholinergic systems can contribute to the shaping of ganglion cell responses.

Laura Veirs looks more like a poet than a musician, and though one could argue this is true, her music is far more substantial and textured than the simple acoustic guitar playing and singing you might expect from someone that wears glasses and looks like they work in a library. Veirs, though not from a musical background and gaining interest relatively late in life, has been playing and recording music for over ten years now, and July Flame, which was released earlier this year, is her 7th album. Her music is lyrically rich, but her songs are versatile, often decidedly electrified, often featuring strings, often featuring driving drum lines, all contributing to the fact that her and her band's instrumental songwriting is just as strong as her words. Live at the Doug Fir, with accompaniment by Annalisa Tornfelt on violin, Laura played a stripped down set of songs mostly from her latest album, plus a great cover of Mississippi John Hurt's "Spike Driver Blues".

Forget saving for college for your newborn, day care will be more expensive
According to a new study, putting your child in day care may be more expensive than college tuition. DAVE ELLIS/THE FREE LANCE-STAR Visit the Photo Place |
The annual average in Virginia was $8,622. Locally, the average weekly rate locally ranged from $118 in Caroline and King George to $160 in Stafford. That translates to $6,163 a year in Caroline and King George and $8,320 a year in Stafford.
Stafford also has the most day care programs run out of homes--82 compared to 32 child care centers, according to data provided by The Childcare Network's Fredericksburg office. King George has only eight home-based day care providers, the lowest number locally, and four day care centers.
Day care centers in Virginia have to be licensed by the state, unless they are operated by a church and seek an exemption. The Code of Virginia mandates the licensure of family day homes if they provide care for six to 12 children (exclusive of the provider's own children and any children who reside in the home).
Currently, this area has 77 licensed child care centers, 22 religious-exempt centers and one military-approved center. It also has 112 licensed family child care centers, 97 that are unregulated and 24 that are voluntarily registered.
"Licensing is one of the things that makes a program better," said Regina Maloney, director of The Childcare Network's Fredericksburg office. "If it's state-licensed, the staff have to have high-quality training throughout the year, and you're more likely to find trained staff."
Yet some parents still feeling the effects of the recession are switching from licensed child care to more informal forms of care to help make ends meet, according to Child Care Aware's report. It points out that there are no checks for basic health and safety standards and other practices that promote healthy child development.
"The high cost of child care forces parents to make difficult decisions," the report said. "Parents want quality child care for their children. Unfortunately, safety, health and school readiness comes at a cost that many parents cannot afford."
Child Care Aware is asking Congress to review state child care policies to ensure that the money it provides states through Child Care and Development Block grants is spent only in safe, quality settings. When the grant was last authorized in 1996, its primary goal was to subsidize low-income families' monthly cost of child care so they could work. The quality of care, the report said, came in a distant second.
Day care centers and home-based providers also took a hit during the recession, Maloney said. A few closed or switched hands, and some lowered their prices.
Rates have risen since then, and are now higher than they were before the economy took a nose dive. Local rates in 2009, for example, ranged from $120 a week for day care centers in Caroline to $195 a week in the city of Fredericksburg.

Parents can search for day care providers on The Childcare Network's website, thechildcarenetwork .org. Regina Maloney, director of the group's Fredericksburg office, said that while there appears to be an adequate supply of day care locally, all are not created equal. "Is it really good child care or is it just there?" she said. "Nationally, about one-third is really high quality, one-fourth to one-third is not good and the rest are in the middle." She recommends checking inspection reports on the network's website for any licensed facilities that parents are considering, and finding out who their child's teachers will be. "I've always told parents that the No. 1 consideration is the person that is taking care of your child day-to-day, not the building."
