New attachments feature patented technology to offer strength and flexibility in a multitude of applications.
Southaven, Miss. (April 18, 2008) –Terex has introduced seven hydraulic transverse cutting units to the North American market. Featuring transmissions with patented gear reduction technology, these attachments are designed for use with the Terex® family of excavators (models ranging from 4,400 lbs to 132,000 lbs) and with Terex® tractor loader backhoes for excavation, scaling and demolition work. Terex® hydraulic cutting units are ideal for trenching in pipeline construction; building renovation; demolition; road construction; landscaping; tree removal; scaling, profiling; and underwater and dredging applications.
"Our cutting units are manufactured for efficient material crushing," says Mike Collins, Terex Construction parts sales and service representative for North America. "They are designed for smooth, quiet running, low vibration and equipment-friendly operation. With a wide selection of motors, drums and picks available, our cutting attachments can be matched to the application for high cutting performance and low pick wear."
The Terex® cutting unit range is comprised of seven models — WS15, WS30, WS45N, WS60N, WS90N, WS120N and WS150N — all designed with heavy-duty spur gears and bearings, powered by a low-speed, high-torque hydraulic drive motor ranging from 24 hp to 190 hp and a hydraulic flow ranging from 8 gpm to 158 gpm. The transmissions of Terex® hydraulic transverse cutting units feature patented gear reduction that boost cutting power. All seven models offer a choice of hydraulic motors, ensuring a flexible adjustment to individual carrier and operating conditions.
Three standard cutting heads are available for use with Terex® cutting attachments: excavation, scaling and demolition. The excavation drum is best suited for soft to medium-hard rock; the scaling drum is ideal for applications in soft to medium-hard rock where a precise or smooth surface is required; and the demolition drum works best in medium-hard to hard rock and concrete.
Terex offers a wide range of pick options to maximize productivity and enhance pick life, including standard, heavy-duty, wear-protected and wood cutter, for its hydraulic cutting units. The standard picks are designed for soft to medium rock such as asphalt, salt and slag. Heavy-duty picks are ideal performers for medium-hard to very hard rock like limestone and concrete. Wear-protected picks are best suited for very abrasive materials, including sandstone and blast-furnace crushed stone. Wood cutter picks are available for grinding tree stumps.
Terex also offers cutting units for non-standard applications, such as cutting drums and slot-cutting drums in various widths and diameters; drums for stump grinding; and anti-dust systems for indoor operations, available by special order. When matched with an adapter bracket, these Terex® cutting units can be used with almost any make of excavator, backhoe loader or special mining machine.
Terex has over 40 years of experience in cutting technology and is a worldwide market leader in this sector of hydraulic transverse cutting units. For more information about the new Terex® Cutting Units, call 866-837-3923.

The Poems
by William ShakespeareThe PoemsShakespeare's greatest achievement in nondramatic verse was his collection of 154 magnificent sonnets that portray a tumultuous world of love, rivalry, and conflict among a poet, an aristocratic young man, a rival poet, and a mysterious "dark lady." More profound than other Elizabethan sonnet sequences and never surpassed as archetypes of the form, these poems explore almost every imaginable emotional complexity related to love and friendship. Some poems are dark, bitter, and self-hating, others express idealism with unmatchable eloquence-and all are of quintessential beauty, part of the world's great literary heritage.In addition to his sonnets, Shakespeare published two long poems early in his career: Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece. Immediately popular in Shakespeare's time, they display a richness that can also reward us with insights into the powerful imagery of his plays.Rounding out this volume are two minor poems, "A Lover's Complaint" and "The Phoenix and Turtle," thought to be part of Shakespeare's early writings.From the Paperback edition.
El rey Lear
by William ShakespeareLa tragedia del Rey Lear fue escrita probablemente entre 1605 y 1606. Su protagonista es un anciano monarca que, antes de dividir el reino entre sus tres hijas, les pide que halaguen su vanidad. Mientras Regan y Goneril lo complacen, la tercera, Cordelia, rechaza obrar con hipocresía. Tal actitud desata la hybris del rey y lo lleva a destruir la felicidad de su familia, de sus súbditos y la suya propia. La historia secundaria, la del Duque de Gloucester y sus hijos Edmundo y Edgardo, pone en escena un conflicto similar al principal, Tanto Lear como Gloucester llegarán a la verdad sólo al término de una serie de padecimientos. Con un lenguaje coherente, poético y vital, los personajes de las obras de Shakespeare nos hablan desde lo más hondo de su situación existencial: ciegos de amor, consumiéndose de celos, agitados por la duda, devorados por la ambición y el remordimiento, debatiéndose entre el bien y el mal, ebrios de fanfarronería, y, lo que resulta más inquietante, sin ninguna finalidad moral.

by William Shakespeare Claudia Gabel"You are deluded, Romeo. Vampires do not have the capability to love. They are heartless." The Capulets and the Montagues have some deep and essential differences.

So it's really quite a problem when Juliet, a vampire-to-be, and Romeo, the human who should be hunting her, fall desperately in love. What they don't realize is how deadly their love will turn out to be-or what it will mean for their afterlives. . . . This riotous twist on the ultimate tale of forbidden romance is simply to die for.

I don't get the comments saying the Bills were being cheap. They didn't game plan for Ponder and the Vikes - which would be unusual for preseason. They simply ran Pettine's new, agressive defense - just like they did the week before against the Colts. What are the Bills supposed to do, run some other team's defense during preseason? Preseason is time to evaluate players and practice your plays. Pettine called his normal plays to see which players can execute and which can't. He'd be negligent in his duties as DC if he had done anything different.
The All-22: Christian Ponder's confusion against Buffalo's defense speaks to a larger issue
In 2012, the Buffalo Bills had a multi-million-dollar defensive line with all the talent in the world, but middling results to show for it. A front four consisting of ends Mark Anderson and Mario Williams and tackles Marcel Dareus and Kyle Williams should be able to plug up rushing gaps and terrorize quarterbacks on a fairly regular basis. But last year's Bills ranked 27th in overall defense in Football Outsiders' efficiency metrics. They also wound up below the middle of the pack when it came to stopping the run and rushing the passer, and whether you were reading metrics or watching tape, it was a pretty disappointing disconnect between talent and performance.
Sometimes, that disconnect has to do with scheme. In an attempt to set things right, the Bills replaced defensive coordinator Dave Wannstedt with Mike Pettine, who had that same role with the New York Jets. Under Rex Ryan (save all the jokes; Ryan is a brilliant defensive mind), Pettine ran all kinds of fronts, stunts, and exotic calls, and it would appear that he's already getting under the skin of at least one NFL quarterback in his new home.
After the Bills beat the Minnesota Vikings, 20-16, in Friday's preseason contest, Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder told the media that he wasn't quite sure what Pettine was throwing at him out there.
"They're a very exotic defense, a very good defense," Ponder said. "They had a lot of different looks. We're still in pre-season mode, so we didn't really do any scheming or anything against them. There's a lot of things we're going to be able to learn from the tape, and I think next week in San Francisco is going to be the big barometer of where we are as a team. I think the starters will play the first half and a little bit into the second half. So we'll learn from this one and move on to the next one."
Before he moves on to the next one, Ponder and his teammates might want to examine how often they were physically overwhelmed against Buffalo's defense. On Minnesota's first play from scrimmage, Ponder — who completed five passes in 12 attempts for 53 yards — was sacked by former Indianapolis Colts draft bust Jerry Hughes. Hughes ran a simple inside counter on left tackle Matt Kalil, and Kalil let him by too easily. Vikings head coach Leslie Frazier said after the game that his offense didn't do much to prepare for what Buffalo did, but a guy of Kalil's talents shouldn't need extra film work to deal with an inside counter, either.
Later in that first series, Pettine started to dial up fronts with one down lineman and several defenders at the line of scrimmage with their hands off the ground. These looks (frequently called "Psycho" fronts) make it more difficult for quarterbacks and offensive linemen to determine who's rushing, who's dropping, and where to put one's attention. One play in the Vikings' second series provided a perfect summary of Pettine's effective concepts, and how they affected Ponder's physical limitations.
On third-and-24 from the Buffalo 45-yard line with 8:25 left in the first quarter, Ponder scrambled for 14 yards, and the Vikings had to punt. That's what the play-by-play will tell you, but the tape shows a great deal more.
This happened one play after Ponder threw a errant screen pass in the general direction of right guard Brandon Fusco. Ouch.
To be fair, though, these kinds of defensive packages can fool the best quarterbacks in the NFL. I remember charting a New England Patriots-Dallas Cowboys game in October of 2011 (the Patriots won, 20-16), in which then-defensive coordinator Rob Ryan gave Tom Brady the same kinds of looks. In the first quarter, the Pats ran 12 plays and scored three points, with two sacks and an interception. In the second quarter, Brady's offense ran 20 plays and scored 10 points, with no sacks and no interceptions. What was the difference? In the first quarter, New England didn't run a single no-huddle play. In the second quarter, every possible play that could be no-huddle was just that.
As I noted back then, the difference in Dallas' defense was immediate.
As soon as they realized that Brady was calling the offense and not just the protections from the line, that Cowboys kaleidoscope defense became much less colorful in a hurry. Through the drive that took up the first three minutes of the second quarter and ended in a field goal, you saw two down linemen, [outside linebacker DeMarcus] Ware standing up on the defensive right side, and a nickel base defense. Over and over. The Patriots did another smart thing –- they punctuated the hurry-up stuff with running plays, ensuring that the Cowboys knew they'd have to pay if their quicker adjustments led to any poor run fits or gap integrity mistakes.
Now, of course, the Pats are in the vanguard of NFL teams running no-huddle. So, that's one way to reduce Ponder's confusion at the line — by forcing defenses away from schematic diversity, offensive coordinators can help their quarterbacks get some momentum rolling.
But in a larger sense, I believe this play speaks to the throws Ponder doesn't believe he can make. Those limitations will probably come home to roost in the regular season, as they did last year. ESPN's Ron Jaworski ranked Ponder 27th in his 2013 QB Countdown, and gave a pretty accurate picture of where Ponder is now.
"Ponder fits the profile so many are now talking about: the athletic movement quarterback who can beat you with his legs. Ponder is an opportunity runner, and he's shown the ability to burn some of the best defenses in the league.
"Ponder needs to make significant improvements as a pocket passer. Surprisingly, with Adrian Peterson in the backfield, he was not efficient off play-action. Ponder also had a tendency to be a beat late with his throws. At this point, he doesn't see the whole field with clarity and that led to too many throws into the teeth of the coverage.
"And he must execute versus the blitz much better than he did in 2012. You know what statistic really bothered me? Ponder had only 28 completions of 20 yards or more – by far the fewest of any 16-game starter.
"Overall, I like Ponder's skillset. He has plus arm strength with the ability to make every single throw. The Vikings have now provided Ponder with more weapons on the outside. 2013 is an important season for the third-year quarterback. It's time to play more consistently from the pocket. If Ponder does that, he could well be in my top 20 next year."
But if Ponder can't take advantage of the opportunities provided to him by general manager Rick Spielman and offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave, he'll stay in Jaws' low 20s. The play illustrated above is an example of Musgrave telling Ponder to go for it — to air it out and see what happens under adverse conditions.
As the great offensive coach Sid Gillman told Jaworski when the two men worked together in the 1970s, the preseason is the time to make those tougher throws to see just how things will turn out. The Vikings will face those kinds of situations when the games really count, and they'll face a lot more of them if it's clear that Ponder will not take chances on shot plays downfield.
Greg Cosell of NFL Films, who also produces Jaworski's NFL Matchup show on ESPN, once told me that you must partially judge quarterbacks on the throws they seem to know they can't make — the plays left on the table. I'm sure the Vikings are doing just that in these kind of situations.
As for Buffalo's defense? Things are looking pretty bright right now.

From: CA, United States
Genre: Hip Hop/Rap, Christian, Gospel
Born in Compton in the early 1980's and raised in San Diego, CA, CHRISTIAN was brought up with an element of strong poverty. With both parents being migrant citizens in a new country, his family was raised with not much to go with and forced to grow up in an environment shrouded in uncertainty. While having to deal with a constant, unwavering alcohol problem on behalf of his father, his mother was forced to pick up the pieces and raise three boys on her own.
Throughout his childhood, CHRISTIAN was bright, talented and attracted to the things of music at an early age. One Christmas, his mother bought him a toy guitar with a detachable speaker, as a gift to the young up and coming performer. Family was then gathered 'round and forced to hear CHRISTIAN sing songs from his little heart and with lyrics only he knew. Even at that age, he knew exactly what he was destined to be: a true entertainer.
In his early teen years CHRISTIAN started to develop characteristics of his father. He started following in the same footsteps of his dad and developed a drinking habit. By the time he was 20, CHRISTIAN was not too far behind his dad in alcoholism and matched the average consuming rate of a heavy drinker at age 35. With multiple alcohol-related incidents and accidents, this once aspiring musician was now headed down a road for destruction.
Then one day, his mother's worse fear happened. In a black 2006 Ford Mustang headed northbound on the 215 Interstate, CHRISTIAN was involved in a near-death collision while driving under the influence. With the top down and falling asleep at the wheel going faster than 90 mph, it was a miracle he survived, especially without wearing a seat belt! He woke up in a dreamy, confused state, unscathed and alive. How had a boy who's dreams of pursuing a career in music been almost devastated by a habit he hated to admit was only learned from watching his father?
It was at this crucial moment CHRISTIAN realized this was not only a wake-up call, but a miracle! How could this happen? Why didn't he die? And more importantly, why was he still alive? This was the very same question which drove him to looking for answers. Then one day, while on his personal quest for an explanation to this crucial event, his older brother invited him to a local Christian church located in San Diego, CA. While the church itself was rather small in size and located in a tent for early Sunday gatherings, this did not stop the young man's search for truth.
The young, vibrant pastor spoke a message of hope, forgiveness, a new life, and a man named Jesus. Oddly enough, this same message was what resonated in CHRISTIAN's heart as the truth. Everything the speaker touched on was answering his questions, one by one, day after day, and quoting directly from The Holy Bible. This was it! CHRISTIAN had finally found the answer to his question: he was still alive because he had a mission to accomplish. And that mission was to tell people his story. To tell people how a life full of uncertainty, drugs, alcohol, abuse and despair headed down the wrong road, could change, could be healed and nurtured and ultimately, given a second chance.
So on a summer evening in August of 2007, CHRISTIAN made a decision to follow Jesus Christ as his personal savior and Lord. He gave himself completely to God and dedicated his new born-again life to advancing the kingdom of God on Earth, through music and a ministry only CHRISTIAN knew was right for him. Music was now the answer and the tool God had equipped him with from the beginning. And it was now time to put this new faith in action.
Journey through the lyrics and music of a born-again believer who knows what it's like to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, and still pull through with the help from above. With infectious hip-hop beats and hooks, CHRISTIAN is destined to speak to you and your young listener through deep, knowledgeable truths derived only from the truth itself, God and His Word.

Dogs may have been man's best friend for thousands of years longer than we realized
Pat Shipman
It's funny how much difference a single letter makes. A "woof" at the door is a very different thing from a wolf at the door. One is familiar, domestic, reassuring; the other is a frightening apparition of imminent danger. The distinction between our fond companions and the ferocious predator of northern climes goes back a long way.
Dogs are descended from wolves, probably the gray wolf. Some scientists argue that, because dogs and wolves can and do interbreed, they shouldn't be considered to be separate species at all. They believe that domestic dogs are only a subspecies or variant of the gray wolf, Canis lupus, and ought to be called Canis lupus familiaris (the familiar or domestic wolf) instead of Canis familiaris (the familiar or domestic dog). Although the ability to interbreed and produce fertile offspring is a tried-and-true criterion for recognizing that two populations are really variants of a single species, the reality is more nuanced. We cannot know whether dog-wolf hybrids will thrive and survive, or die out, in the long run.
Certainly we expect to be able to distinguish a dog from a wolf if we see one. Of course, domestic dogs are wildly variable in size and shape, thanks to several hundred years of selective breeding. Some have long, fluffy coats; others have tightly curled, nearly waterproof coats and webbed feet. Some are leggy and swift, whereas others are solid, stoutly built guard dogs. Some fit neatly into a pocketbook, but others barely fit into a compact car. As Robert K. Wayne of the University of California at Los Angeles declares, "Dogs show more diversity in appearance than any other mammal."
What is it that tells us this animal is "dog" and that one is "wolf?"
Modern wolves and dogs can be distinguished reasonably easily by their appearance. The most telling feature of dogs is the snout, which is significantly shorter and wider than wolves' snouts. Only a few dog breeds with extremely elongated, slender snouts, such as Irish wolfhounds, surpass wolves in "snoutiness."
But a crucial part of the difference we perceive is in the animals' manner and attitude towards humans. Domesticated dogs are just that: canids that live in the house or domicile of humans. They are genetically disposed to seek out human attention and approval and to accept human leadership. Wolves are not.
How did this important change come about? Probably in the distant past, humans took in a wolf cub, or even a whole litter of cubs, and provided shelter, food and protection. As the adopted cubs matured, some were aggressive, ferocious and difficult to handle; those probably ended up in the pot or were cast out. The ones that were more accepting of and more agreeable to humans were kept around longer and fed more. In time, humans might have co-opted the natural abilities of canids, using the dogs' keen noses and swift running skills, for example, to assist in hunting game. If only the most desirable dogs were permitted to breed, the genes encoding for "better" dogs would continue to be concentrated until the new domesticated species (or subspecies) was formed.

The cable connects to a virgin box at one end. I think that the terms and conditions may prohibit you from opening that box.

I wish I could pretend to be really cold hearted on the internet. That'd make me feel really cool.
If shes ok with it and enjoys it, no. But if you're pushing or guilt tripping her into it, then yes. I mean if you told her what you said here and convinced her that you would make a better stay at home parent even though she might have wanted the same thing it would be using her.
I am unable to give a flying fuck about anybody I don't know, unless it is somebody that have experienced something truely gruesome. I am the complete opposite about the people I know, usually going out of my way by a great deal for them. Luckily I don't know a huge amount of people (due to the first thing I wrote obviously).

The Pittsburgh Pirates are 23-17 after pn the season, but have done so on good pitching. The club's offense has struggled, posting a .242 batting average in 46 games, good for No. 12 in the National League. The Bucs also rank No. 10 in on-base percentage, offsetting their respectable No. 8 ranking in slugging. One of the problematic spots in the order is occupied by third baseman Pedro Alvarez.

My research focuses upon reconstructing the political geography of 15th to 17th century central Petťn, Guatemala.
My interests include the Maya, architecture, spatial analysis, ritual, social memory, and cultural contact.
My dissertation examined how the Kowoj of 15th to 18th century Petťn, Guatemala utilized ritual architecture
and performances as foundations of ethnic identity.
The Kowoj were a powerful group when the Spaniards conquered Petťn in AD 1697.
They claimed to have migrated from MayapŠn, a capital in YucatŠn,
Mexico that incorporated numerous ethnic groups into a single polity, but collapsed around AD 1441.
The Kowoj were the enemies of the Itza, the politically dominant group in 16th and 17th century Petťn, who claimed ancestry from
Chichíen Itza, an earlier Maya capital in YucatŠn. The origin myths of the Kowoj and Itza were part of
their collective memories and symbolic foundations of their social differentiation.
I conducted excavations at Zacpetťn, a site resting in the former Kowoj region, and
found that in the mid-15th century, the ceremonial architecture of Zacpetťn was reconstructed to resemble that of MayapŠn.
I compared the architecture and activity areas of Zacpetťn with those of sites both inside and outside
Petťn to understand how ritual practices and architecture helped to differentiate the Kowoj from other ethnic groups in Petťn.
This project is significant beyond the clarification of historical facts as it adds to the understanding
of how rituals contribute to the construction of ethnic boundaries; how history is used as a
foundation of social identity; and the processes of ethnogenesis that follow the collapse of complex societies.

It was like coming home - we had been on QE last year and the QV is a similar size and layout.
Superb quality fittings even though QV is now the 'oldest' ship in the fleet following QM2 refit. They had a torrid time on the way back from New York on the cruise before ours and lost quite oa lot of the crockery and there were a few parts of the ship showing signs of distress but overall the experience was superb.
Britannia restaurant was its usual superb standard an must give thanks to Mark Olroyd and his kitchen staff for providing quality food and excellent menus.
Chart Room and Cafe Corinthea became our second homes - superb service in wonderful surroundings - thank you Bianca.
Stateroom was its usual high standard - clean, comfortable bed, quiet surroundings (deck 4)and brilliant service from the domestic team.
On board facilities matched our expectations - some days there was too much available. Must recommend the Martini Mixology (but be prepared to be a bit 'squiffy' afterwards!) and the Veuve Clicot afternoon tea - both are an experience not to be missed.
Only downside was Royal Court - why do Cunard insist on putting on staid performances from their own team? They hid their best assets until the last night when they dragged in the singer from the Queens Ballroom - he held the stage magnificently. And the theme of a Simon and Garfunkel tribute saw the largest audience of the cruise. But the Victoriana night - oh dear!!
Some good guests though - violinist, comedian, singer and the Macdonald Brothers (who - came 4th behind Leona Lewis in X Factor 2006) - all good and a relief from the on-board entertainment.
Best kept secret was the pianist in the Commodore Club - humorous and talented.
Weather and trip were excellent - how can they dock a ship of this size without waking us all up I have no idea - it was always a surprise to open the curtains and find we had arrived.
Overall would give this a really high score and am already planning my next Cunard cruise.

NORTH ANDOVER — Zane Melillo had to sit and watch his North Andover teammates lose to Winchester in the North Andover duals a week earlier, and he didn't like it.
"I felt like I let the team down and I wanted to redeem myself today," said Mellillo last night at the Division 2 North sectional. "I knew the team needed me."
The junior 132-pounder, who missed more than two weeks of action with what he said was a shoulder injury, did just that as he won his weight class in impressive fashion, dominating Winchester standout Quinn Gregory 7-0 in the finals. That raised his season record to 20-2, his only two losses coming at 138 and one of those was an injury default.
Mellilo was one of five North Andover finalists on the night and they all won their weight class. Five Knights also placed in the top four, giving the team 10 qualifiers for the Division 2 state meet Tuesday and Wednesday in Marshfield.
Despite that tremendous performance in the finals, North Andover finished runner-up to Winchester for the second straight year. The Sachems finished with 272 points with North Andover at 246 1/2. Central Catholic, with two champions among five finalists, was a solid fourth at 164.
The performance in the finals was a strong sign that North Andover will be tough to handle, both at the state meet and perhaps even at New England.
"We're going for first (at New England) but we're aiming for D2 states first," said star 182-pounder Ryan Neals. "I'm proud of the way we wrestled today."
Neals was as impressive as ever, remaining undefeated (32-0), following two pins with a 15-1 major decision in the finals, scoring all of his points in the final two periods.
Joining Neals on top of the podium for the Knights were 106-pounder Danielle Coughlin, who won her first sectional title with a 4-3 decision in the finals, 152-pounder Fritz Hoehn and 160-pounder Brad Drover. Hoehn decisioned Burlington's rugged Luke Nigro, 4-2, in the finals while Drover pulled away from Central Catholic's resilient Dave Sergi in his championship match, scoring all of his points in the final period of a 6-0 victory.
"Going 5 for 5 in the finals is great and I think that makes it look good for us at state," said North Andover coach Carl Cincotta. "We got off to a little slow start, but we came on strong."
Joining the champions at state for the Knights will be Peter Taylor (113), Dan Villalba (120), Nick Villalba (126), Nick Cincotta (138) and Cooper McLeod (145).
For Central, Pat Lacroix repeated as a sectional champion with a dominating performance at 126, recording a second-period pin in the finals, and Ben Tavitian controlled the field at 220, recording a pin at 1:14 in the finals and getting the award for most pins in least amount of time. Lacroix improved his record to 46-2 while Tavitian is 48-2.
Finishing second for the Raiders were 113-pounder Jack Kiely, 120-pound freshman Brandon Desfosses, 195-pounder Morgan Bronson and Sergi. Desfosses lost to Dracut's Jon Ryan, who was named the meet's Outstanding Wrestler.
Also winning for Dracut, which finished third, was Mike Stewart at 138, Jim Ryan at 145 and Jaycee Hebert at 170.
Winchester placed eight wrestlers in the finals, but only had two champions, both of whom defeated area wrestlers. Jack Kelley pinned Bronson in the 195 finals and heavyweight Dan McGurl pinned Whittier's Dave Sachs. But the Sachems had the depth, which pleased head coach Larry Tremblay, who was named Division 2 North Coach of the Year.
Also for Whittier, Xavier Boisvert was third at 132 and Shahib Blount came in third at 170. Luis Matteo was third for Greater Lawrence at 220 while Jorge Quinnones was fourth at 106.
Division 2 North Sectional
Team scores: Winchester 272, North Andover 246 1/2, Dracut 182 1/2, Central Catholic 164, Beverly 115, Whittier 109, Gr. Lowell 106, Masconomet 95, Burlington 70, Salem 59, Gr. Lawrence 53 1/2, Tewksbury 41

Uhm, do you really think we are going to do this for you? That is not what this site is for, and I would hope not what ANY site is for. We are here to help you when you get stuck, to clarify points you need help with--not to do your work for you. I am a teacher, and I have to tell you we are very good at figuring out who has done their own work, and who has had someone else do it, or plagarized.
Now get to work, and we'll be happy to help you.

First of all, this is the discussion board. The things posted here are meant to elicit opinions and umm well yeah--discussion. This would be a more appropriate topic for the question board, but even then--you need to ask questions about the specific works in which you are interested. Good luck though.

I agree. I am a teacher too, and we are great at seeing through students' attempts to get others to do their work for them. For one, after seven (or however many) years of working with kids, we kind of get to know how average kids in that grade level write/think/reason/express themselves. For two, your teacher probably knows you and your writing style better than you give him or her credit for. If a kid suddeny turns in an assignment with the vocab of a teacher who has been to graduate school, it sticks out like a red flag.
BUT, if you want some suggestions on topics, angles from which to approach this assignment, or books to read, you might want to reply and ask that kind of question. We love to help kids, but c'mon. How are you going to get to be a tronger person if you don't do the work?

The best source of film reviews is probably the website of Roger Ebert, Pulitzer-Prize winning film critic and journalist. For book reviews, you should check out the NY Times Book Reviews.
