Missoula business owners met with city officials Thursday morning for a panel discussion on the prevention and cost of graffiti vandalism.Police said reports of graffiti tags on the sides of buildings -- particularly downtown -- have dropped in recent years.However, city officials said it's important for business owners to know how to prevent vandals from causing damage to their own property. Todd Frank owns the Trailhead on Front Street in Missoula.Frank said vandals have tagged his business with spray paint five times over the past two years, which cost him hundreds of dollars to remove. "You know, we want our building to look nice, as well, I mean it's sort of partly our presentation to the community is important to us," Frank said.If a structure is tagged with graffiti, city officials said it's important for business owners to report and remove the tag as quickly as possible. Frank explained, "The longer it's up, the more people think it's acceptable and the more people will continue to use those spaces.""It's kind of a contest to see who can keep their tag on the longest, that's why it's really important to get rid of it as fast as possible," Crime Prevention Officer with the Missoula Police Department, Robert Sheeban, said.
Sheeban said graffiti vandals tend to be middle-school aged, but the department has also nabbed a few vandals in their mid-twenties. "I would consider it a subculture, and it's a form of expression," he said.The police department and the Business Improvement District offer paint and solvent spray services to remove graffiti from surfaces.Business owners can also take preventative measures, like covering their building with a paint-resistant coating, or installing security cameras and lights. Another solution to graffiti vandalism is to provide the artists with a legal canvas, like the concrete wall at the end of California Street, whose owner donated it, specifically for graffiti.Business Improvement District ambassadors have filed nearly 3,000 graffiti incidents over the past four years.However, city officials said collaboration between business owners and local government has led to a 50% decrease in graffiti vandalism in Missoula. "You know, making it welcoming, and not intimidating in any way is critical for our business and I think every business that exists downtown," Frank said.City attorneys said Missoula does not have a graffiti specific ordinance, but vandals can face misdemeanor criminal mischief charges, which carry up to a $1,500 fine and six months in jail.

Smoking ban a no go in Fair HavenJuly 23,2013By Lucia Suarez
FAIR HAVEN — A 2-2 vote by the Select Board stymied an effort to ban smoking within the fenced area of the park.
With Selectwoman Claire Stanley absent, the remaining four members of the board could not muster the three votes needed to approve an amendment to the town's park ordinance to ban smoking.
Selectmen Jeff Sheldon and Robert Richards voted in favor of the ban, while board Chairman Christopher Cole and Selectman David Ward voted against it.
The amendment to the park ordinance — seemingly a compromise by the Select Board — would have banned smoking from within the marble-fenced area of the park, designating all other areas including the bus stop, the parking lot and where the cannon sits as smoking areas.
Before voting Richards, who was the most adamant in his support for the ban, called other members "spineless" for questioning the need for the ban and letting a handful of complaints against it sway their vote so easily.
He said smoking is a danger to people's health and for that reason it should be passed, adding it was not a smoker's right to endanger his health. He said he did not want to have to chose where to sit while at the park because of people smoking.
"I have not had to ask them to move and I don't want to have to," Richards said.
He went on to say that he fully expects people to be courteous about smoking, but the amendment will say on paper that they can't.
"I don't think you will have to enforce it most of the time, but if you do (have to), you will some teeth," Richards said.
Cole said he does not believe the town needs it. Ward said he spoke with several people — 22 in total — who were both in favor or against the ban.
"You can't enforce it," he said. "I would have been in favor of it if it was for special events."
Sheldon questioned how it would be enforced — "I don't see a police officer going in there and citing someone for smoking," he said — though ultimately he cast his vote in favor of the ban.

During the months of October and November, the Bamidele Dancers and Drummers performed at many of the elementary and middle schools in Andover. Their performances were part of the annual "Andover All-Town Performance" and sponsored through the support of the Andona Society and through the various school PTO groups.
The Bamidele Dancers & Drummers are art educators, composers, musicians, dancers and choreographers from Africa, the Americas, and the Caribbean, according to the PTO. They are dedicated to the preservation of African and African-related cultures through dance, music, and song. Its members have expertise in African, Caribbean, and Brazilian culture.
Bamidele led an interactive dance workshop that allowed students to experience the language, music and culture of African related dance.
PTO leaders said "the workshop was well received by both students and staff."

The HerbaSway Story
Dr. Franklin and Lorraine St. John founded HerbaSway in 1996 because they were looking for a natural approach to health and nutrition and couldn't find anything on the market that met their needs. They wanted to go beyond the typical multi-vitamin pill and really focus on specific nutritional goals. After a great deal of research, they decided that the best method would be to develop liquid concentrates so that they were better absorbed into the bloodstream.
HerbaSway was Born! The concept of liquid concentrates was relatively new to the American consumer, so HerbaSway set out to introduce it to North America, through health and nutrition stores and on television. Response was enthusiastic and HerbaSway's product line has been growing ever since.

City claimed their first win of 2014 with a dramatic stoppage-time header from Carl McHugh as Valley Parade erupted.
The Irishman, recalled at left back because Matthew Bates was injured, nodded in from a Gary Jones corner to make it 14th time lucky.
Their first victory since November – and first at home since September 28 – was richly deserved, however late the goal arrived.
It seemed that they would not find their way through a stubborn and physical Port Vale despite dominating for long periods.
Adam Reach, who shone once again, hit the post and saw Chris Neal tip his curler over the bar.
Rory McArdle cleared off the line from Chris Lines early on but there was no argument about who deserved to win. At last!
That's it. City have won at last!!!
Phil Taylor, Robbie Williams, Adrian Lewis.... your boys have taken a hell of a beating. Well 1-0 will do!!
Mclean goes off as the place continues to erupt. On comes Andy Gray
Jones crosses and McHUGH nods home!!! At last, City lead..... repeat, City lead....
City corner
Vale have everyone bar Tom Pope in their own penalty area...
Five added minutes to win this....
Fans still singing, they have certainly played their part
*bangs head against wall*
Think this ref has lost his cards...
Still City pour forward. Still Vale hold out
A tired cross from Jones. The City skipper has run himself into the ground...
Ten minutes of normal time left
Corner count is 7-0..... score is 0-0
Normal service resumed but Jones fires wide again
Hugill shot on the break is saved by McLaughlin.
Darby cross is half-volleyed against the foot of the post by Reach....
Hanson whips ball to near post where Neal takes it off the toe of the diving Reach....
Vale going with two big guys up front as Williamson makes way for Hugill
Lines curls it into the away end
Vale free-kick outside the City box. But before they can take it, Thompson comes on for Bennett
Crowd is 12,106 with 220 from Port Vale
No card, nor a free-kick...... ok ref
Mclean on the floor again after being flattened by Lines
Ironic wolf whistles as Vale fans are heard for the first time all night
Ref gets some more choice words from the crowd as he books McHugh for a foul on Yates
Reach hasn't wasted much tonight but he delivers a poor cross as City threaten on the counter
Could have been more.... Loft shot batted away by McLaughlin
Vale taking their time over a free-kick. Quite happy to hang on for their point
Jones free-kick handled behind by Daniel Jones. Corner given which McArdle heads wide
Another foul from Griffith....
Reach robs Lines to charge into box once again but the ball runs away from him as he looks to cross
Reach cuts in and drives across goal... "Cmon City" roar the crowd
Davies heads just over from free-kick
Nope, ref Brown thinks otherwise. Very, err, lenient....
Griffith late on Bennett. Gotta go here....
Mclean done more in five minutes of second half than whole of the first. City on top again and have another corner
Crowd use the break to belt out a rendition of Parkinson's Bradford Army. The fans have been right behind him as Julian Rhodes had asked before the game
McHugh down after clash of heads with Davies, who is also getting treatment
Mclean immediately causes havoc in Vale box, tries an overhead kick and Loft almost clears into his own net as he hacks away
Mclean taps to Hanson and off we go again
City back out on the pitch ready to carry on where they left of
Bright stuff from the Bantams but they still haven't scored in the first half since the Bristol City game - also the last time they got the first goal.
Kyle Reid back on the Valley Parade turf to do the half-time prize draw
Half-time, 0-0 but City playing well and crowd appreciate it
Decent cross from McHugh but nobody on the end of it
Reach wrong-foots Yates but cross with outside of his boot is cut out by Grimmer
Two minutes of extras
Griffith on a last warning with the ref by looks of it
Jones free-kick is headed behind by McHugh...
Mclean getting some treatment from Vale. Davis knocks him over a minute after Griffith catches him late...
Subtle #bcafc #bcafc modification of an old favourite. Reach, Reach will tear you apart again!— @Ianhirst666 18 February 2014
Reach again dribbling his way into the Vale box but his right-foot drive is blocked
Jones swaps passes with Davies and has a crack from 20 yards. Doesn't miss by much..
Second booking for Vale as Loft blocks off Reach. Cynical foul
I'm not one to talk but Rob Page, the Vale number two, has got an incredibly shiny head...
City respond with a Reach shot deflected behind for their third corner.
McLaughlin needed to be alert to push away Loft shot after mistake by McHugh let the midfielder into box.
Mclean catches Dickinson with a high boot. Referee happy to give him a telling off not a booking
McHugh stands his ground well to earn foul from Loft and gets loud applause for it
Griffith, the Port Vale enforcer, goes in with a nasty lunge on Mclean in the centre circle. Lots of arms up and home anger but ref shows yellow card
McArdle races back 50 yards with Williamson to block him... Centre half started this one well
Neal punches free-kick away and Vale are at the races....
Reach flattened by Loft just outside the corner point of the Vale box. Good spell of City pressure
City so close... McHugh flicks corner across goal where Hanson is denied at far post. Ball comes out to Reach, whose first shot is blocked and second is tipped over the bar by Neal
Reach looking very positive again with driving run and cross to the far post. Knocked behind for City corner
Hanson jumps to meet Bennett cross but it's a bit high and he cannot guide it on target
Lines free-kick cannons into the girth of Doyle in the City wall before Jones blocks the follow-up
Ref allows Vale to play on for a fair time before pulling it back for a Davies foul five yards outside the box...
McLaughlin owes McArdle a pint after the game for that.
Scare for City as McLaughlin's scuffed clearance goes straight to Lines. He has an empty goal to aim at from 35 yards but McArdle gets back to head off the line
Reach lofts a lovely ball from the left-back position and Hanson hits it first time across the Vale goal...
Header from Pope plops gently into McLaughlin's arms.
Bad tackle from Dickinson on Bennett. Left back lucky to escape a card
That's got the Kop going with a rendition of Midland Road
Good start from City. Hanson almost on the end of Darby ball lobbed into box then Bennett and Reach efforts blocked.
Vale to kick off towards the Kop. Here we go....
Deep breaths, chests out.... here come the two teams
Right, let's do this. 3pts is all I ask. #bcafc— @Paulwilki 18 February 2014
Nervous tension in the air. Not as cold as recently but likely to be an iron underpants night!!
Please don't let me sit in the cold all evening for nothing! #bcafc— @sarahwassell 18 February 2014
Tom Pope, who scores against City for fun, is in the Port Vale team after recovering from a stiff neck.
Ben Williamson comes in for Jordan Hugill to partner him up front - the only change from a team that has kept back-to-back clean sheets.
Vale, as if we need reminding, are unbeaten in their last five visits to Valley Parade.
PORT VALE: Neal, Yates, Grimmer, Davis, Dickinson, Loft, Lines, Griffith, Jones, Williamson, Pope. Subs: Dodds, Myrie-Williams, Tomlin, Birchall, Knott, Hugill, Johnson.
@ParkerTandA no defenders on the bench— @ProSutcliffe 18 February 2014
Three players back in all with something to prove.... Bennett needs to show that spark we saw before his red card against Preston; McHugh has to put the horrors of his last outing at left back behind him; Doyle has to rediscover his form from start of season.
Phil Parkinson makes three changes from the side that started last week's poor 1-0 defeat at Carlisle.
Kyle Bennett replaces Garry Thompson on the right wing and Nathan Doyle takes over from Matty Dolan in central midfield.
The third change is injury-enforced. Matthew Bates is suffering with a hip problem so Carl McHugh gets another chance at left back - the position where he struggled against Sheffield United in his last appearance there.
Mark Yeates is back among the substitutes after his absence with knee trouble.
CITY: McLaughlin, Darby, McArdle, Davies, McHugh, Bennett, Jones, Doyle, Reach, Mclean, Hanson. Subs: Dolan, Gray, Thompson, McBurnie, Yeates, Atkinson, Jameson.
Good evening and welcome to Valley Parade for City's game against Port Vale.
It's a match that has taken on crucial proportions as Phil Parkinson's side look to halt a run of 13 games without a win - and take three points at home for the first time since the end of September.
Team news will be with you shortly.

It's mentioned above but Port Vale got what they deserved too. Pathetic tactics to frustrate, foul and time-waste...it was hilarious to see their players whinging about how slowly McLean left the pitch wen he was subbed.
Lots of encouraging performances but Reach is a quality player and really impressed. Doyle looked up for it from the word go and Jones really put himself about trying to make things happen.
The only negative was the utter DH in the Kop upper tier who seems to have made Kyle Bennett his new scapegoat...this "gent" really needs to do one and go "support" someone else. I am pretty sure that Bates' absence was significant but the list of players that he seems to hate is endless. You know who you are you ageing pr!ck but please will you FOAD. Funnily enough, he had left before we scored...he also got what he deserved.
Finally, I would just like to add; do City fans understand the irony of singing a line "we don't care about Huddersfield, We don't care about Leeds"....seriously, if you don't care then why are are you mentioning them?
I was also wondering if it is a little insensitive to sing "Reach will tear you apart"....Kyel was there you know!

Well done city. Great team performance but especially liked Bennett in the first half and Jones in the second. Thought we saw a lot more of the Doyle of old too.

We might have lacked a cutting edge at times, but it was a reasonable performance, like so many in this spell; difference was we got the break tonight, which we haven't had previously. In a tight division this can often be the difference between winning and drawing a game.
Thought Hanson was immense, and won a number of what seemed lost causes.

The risk of data and identity theft is on the rise and PwC understands that data losses can be devastating and risks are substantial, including compromise of company IT systems, direct financial impacts from investigations and customer lawsuits, erosion of brand reputation, loss of customers, government fines and regulatory mandates. Having strong data safeguards in place can help secure a company's reputation, competitiveness, and financial well-being.
The portability and accessibility of information are crucial components of a collaborative, interconnected business world. However, the problem with sharing information is that it can get shared with the wrong people.
Whenever highly sensitive or regulated information is lost, misused, or compromised, it falls under the banner of data and identity theft. Intellectual property, personally identifiable information (birth dates, Social Security numbers, addresses, etc.), trade secrets, employee and customer data, and payment card data are all examples of sensitive or regulated information.
Data losses can be devastating. Besides potential fines and lawsuits, security breaches can have a long-term impact on a company's brand and reputation. Having strong data safeguards in place can help secure a company's reputation, competitiveness, and financial well-being.

Here's a look at a key matchup heading into Sunday's Week Two game between the Bears and Saints.
Saints' RBs vs. Bears' run defense
One of the Saints' top priorities in the offseason was retooling the RB corps in an effort to help the re-establish balance on offense. It didn't get off to a great start against Green Bay, as the team averaged just 3.9 yards per carry and was shut down at the goal line to end the game. Yet New Orleans could feature its backs more prominently this week against the Bears with some injuries at wide receiver. Marques Colston (broken collarbone) will not play, and Lance Moore (groin) is not a lock to suit up.
New Orleans' top backs, Pierre Thomas and rookie Mark Ingram, are solid all-around players and will fight for tough yardage. The change-of-pace back, Darren Sproles, is a diminutive, speedy threat and he led the Saints with seven catches for 75 yards in Week One against the Packers.
Chicago's run defense wasn't truly tested in Week One — the Falcons' offense was pass-heavy after falling way behind against the Bears in the opener. Michael Turner did have some success rushing that afternoon (10 carries for 100 yards, including a 53-yard rush), but New Orleans is going to have to do a better job in the trenches and get to the second level against LBs Brian Urlacher and Lance Briggs to get more movement up front.
If the Saints establish the running game vs. Chicago and the Bears counter by putting a safety in the box, QB Drew Brees will go to work, and things could open up for the passing game. Allowing the Saints to establish that sought-after balance would make it a very long afternoon for Lovie Smith's defense.

Now is the time of year for unheralded players to begin to emerge and show their true value among NFL prospects as players declare for the upcoming 2012 NFL Draft and show off for scouts in the process. Missouri's defensive tackle Dominique Hamilton is one such prospect and Eric Galko at Optimum Scouting says that this should be a special week for the Tigers defensive star.
Hamilton is playing this week in the East-West Shrine game and it's clear that he's among the best defensive players checking in for the game. Scouts will be monitoring him closely and he has a chance to set himself up well for the draft.
"Among the draft's best nose tackle prospects, Hamilton didn't get a ton of love this year playing on a mediocre Missouri team," writes Eric Galko. "Still, he holds the point of attack well, can engage and hold his position in the middle, and has shown separation and rushing ability in the passing game. I fully expect Hamilton to dominate this game and emerge as a legit Day 2, top three round selection."

Top 150 Annual Niche Brands Report
Happy days are here again! Consumer confidence rebounded 1.6 points in April from a dip in March, according to the Consumer Confidence Index, despite the fact that high-gas-price stories are dominating the airwaves. That suggests consumers may be willing to try new things again — in other words, to buy something new — and that is excellent news for niche manufacturers.

zillow.com question
So I went looking on zillow tonight and I swear I remembered the arial view of houses with an estimated price on each whether or not the house was for sale. I cannot find that now. I tried to do the filter thing but all that did was remove the houses that were listed for sale or for rent, etc.
Does this still exist where all of the prices are shown on top of the houses? If so, can you tell me how to find it?
Thank you!
I remember the same thing. I'll have to go check in a little while and let you know what my experience is.
I recall an issue on zillow about erroneous "sold"
info. Don't remember the details.
Have seen that screen shot recently, although I don't believe it comes up as easily as it used to. Heard some months ago they were pulling back on some info -
Thought I also heard that their sales data is sometimes incomplete.
Will return and post if/when I see it again. Do have one idea about where it may be -
Sorry,CM. I forgot to go look.
After typing in the area you want and applying the filters look at the map on the left. Click on " maps" , then click " Aerial" . You may have to zoom in a bit to get the prices to show.
Thank you, Everyone. Met, the zoom in worked. :-)This message has been edited. Last edited by: Charcoalsmom,
I used zillow when I was looking for a house and my realtor finally told me to stop it because it is so far behind, the houses were already sold. it does give good info if you are looking for what houses are going for.
My home value goes up and down every few weeks by $30,000. I honestly don't think their zestimates are very accurate.
Zillow is unreliable. Especially here in Texas, where SOLD prices are not public information.

Hudson Link's Zero Percent Documentary was a success!
Posted by Santiago.Rivera on Monday October 1, 2012
This past Tuesday, September 25, in Shuman Hall (Nyack College Rockland undergraduate campus), students and faculty learned about the lives of several people who are pursuing a higher education while serving time in prison. We learned that this is not an easy path to take. It doesn't only consist of prisoners attending class just because they have nothing else to do. It involves their families' hopes and dreams as well as the students' strong desire to give something back to the society they once hurt.
Personally, I was moved by this whole initiative. It transformed my life with a simple sentence: "You are not your worst action". Someone's worst moment should not define who they are. Yes, people who are part of this program once hurt society somehow, and yes, they either ruined or even ended someone else's life. The question is: Are we (members of society) going to chastise these students for the rest of their lives or are we going to give them a suitable platform for them to use their energy and desire to give back to the society they once hurt? I choose the latter.
"A mind is too wonderful to be wasted", powerful words expressed by the Center for Scholarship and Global Engagement's director, Dr. Nina Balmaceda. The determining note of the panel presentation offered after the documentary was one of excitement and hope. It was formed by Dr. Balmaceda, four former students of the program, one of whom is today Hudson Link's Executive Director, Sean Pica, and as a moderator, Nyack College student Jackie Zapata.
Follow this link for the audio podcast of the panel discussion presented after the documentary was shown. http://nyackcsge.podbean.com/2012/10/01/zero-percent-panel-discussion/

Real Estate Agent requests
Original post made by resident on May 29, 2012
on May 29, 2012 at 2:09 pm
If you are using a certain downtown realtor then he might suggest that. Of course, one beautiful home in Pleasanton sat on the market as his listing for over two years so that would have been horrible for the sellers. When they finally wised up to his inability to sell, they listed with someone else and sold within 30 days.
Get references! It has nothing to do with what is reasonable or affordable. It has everything to do with the 6% commission.
on May 29, 2012 at 2:34 pm
I had this horrible experience as well with a Pleasanton Prudential Realtor (not downtown). She basically wanted to come in and have all of her "preferred associates" do useless things like paint designer colors on the walls and bring in staging furniture. I started to think she must be getting kick backs or maybe free services of her own from her "preferred associates". By you moving out it makes it easy for agents to have the place shown at anytime. These practices are completely for their own personal gain and convenience. My suggestion is that you find a Realtor who's first priority is servicing and representing your family's needs. Good Luck. It's still rough out there, even in this market, finding good honest agents, brokers and lenders.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Top government technology officials
told an acrimonious congressional hearing on Wednesday that they
expected the website at the center of President Barack Obama's
signature healthcare law to be working smoothly by the end of
the month as planned.
The Obama administration is grappling with ways to help
millions of Americans unable to sign up online and those who
have lost health insurance in spite of the president's
oft-repeated promise that people who liked their plans could
keep them when the law took effect on October 1.
In a sometimes confrontational hearing, Republican lawmakers
accused the technology officials of not being candid about red
flags that the HealthCare.gov website would not be ready to go
live on October 1.
There is growing pressure from Republicans - and even
Democrats - for legislation that would let Americans keep
existing plans, even if the policies do not comply with higher
standards set in the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act, also known as Obamacare.
Obama has promised Americans that the website will work for
most people by the end of the month - a critical deadline for
those who need to sign up for insurance benefits that would
start on January 1.
HealthCare.gov was supposed to be the main way of signing up
for insurance, Obama promising it would be as easy to shop for
new insurance plans as it is to buy airline tickets online.
But the website has been slow and error-ridden.
"We have much work still to do, but are making progress at a
growing rate," Todd Park, the chief technology officer at the
White House, told the Republican-led House of Representatives'
Oversight Committee.
The website can now handle 20,000 to 25,000 concurrent
users, Park testified - an improvement, but far short of the
50,000 to 60,000 that the system was originally designed to
The website is faster, and can now register about 17,000
people per hour in plans, he said.
Henry Chao, the deputy chief information officer at the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, testified that
officials are "working around the clock to address problems so
that the site works smoothly for the vast majority of users by
the end of this month."
The website's problems and the policy cancellations have
provided powerful ammunition for Republicans, who see Obamacare
as a costly expansion of government and say it is too
complicated to work and will lead to higher healthcare costs.
The problematic rollout has also frustrated Obama's fellow
Democrats, who worry it will be a major liability in their
re-election fights. Some have called for a change in the law.
There are a range of possible fixes to allow people to
temporarily keep their plans, but many are logistically
difficult, legally risky, or could undermine other parts of the
law, according to policy experts.
The White House had pleaded with the committee to postpone
Park's appearance, saying he needed to devote all his time to
fixing the website. But the committee's chairman, Darrell Issa,
subpoenaed him, saying it was important to hear why the website
launch was such a disaster.
"This wasn't a small mistake," said Issa. "This was a
monumental mistake to go live and effectively explode on the
launch pad."
The law aims to provide health benefits to millions of
uninsured Americans. It mandates that most Americans be enrolled
for health coverage by March 31 or pay a fine.
During the hearing, Elijah Cummings, the top Democrat on the
committee, accused Issa of selectively disclosing documents and
making untrue allegations.
"Nobody in this room, nobody in this country believes that
Republicans want to fix the website," Cummings said.
Issa aggressively questioned Chao about whether the site
protected Americans' personal information, such as their social
security numbers.
Chao said it was safe. "To consciously know that it failed
testing and then put it into production for people to use is not
what we do," Chao said.
The security of the website has become another major target
for Republicans. At a separate hearing on Wednesday, a U.S.
cyber security official said HealthCare.gov has already suffered
a number of cyber threats, including one attempted denial of
service attack that seeks to overwhelm and take down the site.

The 36th New York Film Festival, presented September 25 through October 11 by the Film Society of Lincoln Center, would have seemed a relatively routine affair were it not for the outre qualities of several entries and the last-minute emergence of some genuinely superior movies. There was no shortage of hot-button issues this year--pedophilia was a notable presence in two of the more high-profile selections, and generous helpings of suicide, misogyny, crossdressing, urban violence, and rape were on hand in the rest. Less plentiful were examples of cinematic brilliance or technical innovation.
For what it was worth, probably the most radical approach to film technology seen at the festival involved an attempt to efface it. Thomas Vinterberg's The Celebration is the first work of Denmark's Dogma 95 collective to reach this country, and its avoidance of artificial lighting and sound, constructed sets, or other traditional narrative trappings were mandated by the group's semi-playful "Vow of Chastity," co-drafted by Lars von Trier. Shot in handheld video by Anthony Dod Mantle and transferred to 35mm film, The Celebration matches its harsh look to a raw scenario pivoting on revelations of familial rape.
Todd Solondz's Happiness tackles equally challenging subject matter with a sprawling narrative style and intimate visual approach. Set mostly in suburban New Jersey, Happiness examines the profoundly dysfunctional personal lives of three sisters, and the array of obscene phone callers, pederasts, and other deviants who brighten their days. DP Maryse Alberti applies an observant, close-up camera eye to the denizens of this superficially placid world, with its wall-to-wall carpeting and anonymous apartment building corridors.
Alberti's work on her other festival film, Todd Haynes' Velvet Goldmine, is another universe altogether. This delirious look at the glam rock scene in 1970s London is highlighted by swirling camerawork, shifting frame rates and film stocks, and every color in the era's glitter rainbow. The cinematographer, aided in concert scenes by lighting consultant Susanne Sasic (LD for Sonic Youth, Beck), also brought to life several meticulous Citizen Kane homages.
Gods and Monsters, the story of director James Whale's final days, also dabbles in cinematic homage, as Whale (Ian McKellen) recalls filming Bride of Frankenstein, sometimes mixing elements from his current life into the reveries. Stephen M. Katz, DP on this low-budget Bill Condon film, shot black-and-white recreations of famous scenes from Bride, along with color, though chiaroscuro-toned, renditions of offscreen moments on the set of Whale's classic horror film.
Several movies, including John Boorman's The General, and the opening night entry, Woody Allen's Celebrity, dealt exclusively in black-and-white imagery. On Celebrity, an all-star comic survey of the cultural place of honor accorded to the title quality, Allen retained the services of legendary cinematographer Sven Nykvist for the first time in years. The result came off as sometimes shimmering and sometimes flat, just like the film itself.
DP Seamus Deasy's widescreen black-and-white compositions in The General, a biographical treatment of Irish gangster Martin Cahill, were actually shot on color stock. This may have contributed to the movie's smeary, dulled-out look, as if it were drained of differentiation and vitality. An interesting contrast was provided by the retrospective presentation of Boorman's 1967 Point Blank, a widescreen crime picture characterized by bold color, hard light, and sharp angles.
Widescreen was employed to unusual effect in Wes Anderson's Rushmore, a comedy about the adventures of a 15-year-old oddball on scholarship to an exclusive boys' prep school. Cinematographer Robert Yeoman combined the anamorphic format with wide-angle lenses to achieve deep-focus backgrounds and almost cartoonishly vivid foregrounds.
Rushmore, one of the best films in the festival, was also the only one under a major studio banner. (Touchstone Pictures has scheduled an early 1999 release.) But the Film Society of Lincoln Center also cast its net wider, to countries and filmmakers not often given hearings in the US market. From Iran came 18-year-old Samira Makhmalbaf's The Apple, a bizarre hybrid of documentary and fiction, and from Taiwan came festival favorite Hou Hsiao-Hsien's Flowers of Shanghai. Veteran Japanese director Shohei Imamura contributed a World War II-set drama, Dr. Akagi, while from Russia came the film with perhaps the quirkiest title, Alexei Guerman's Khroustaliov, My Car!
Crowd-pleasers from various points on the globe included American director Marc Levin's Slam, which examined the rap-influenced poetry performance style through the context of a Washington, DC, prison; Ken Loach's My Name Is Joe, another of the director's surveys of working-class Brits, this time furnished with helpful subtitles; and the Festival Centerpiece, Emir Kusturica's Black Cat, White Cat, a raucous tale of Yugoslav Gypsies and their numerous geese.
As in many past festivals, France made one of the strongest showings. Alain Resnais' Same Old Song, shot with appropriate style and grace by Renato Berta, was a Dennis Potter-inspired roundelay of a group of Parisians who express their romantic longings in bursts of dubbed popular song. Gaspar Noe's I Stand Alone, focusing on the ragings of a middle-aged ex-con, presented the other end of the social spectrum in corrosive widescreen images photographed by Dominique Colin.
Finally, The Dreamlife of Angels, a debut feature by Erick Zonca, concluded the festival on a sublimely melancholy note. The story of two unmoored young women (Elodie Bouchez and Natacha Regnier) just getting by in the northern French town of Lille, the film is shot by Agnes Godard in a seemingly plain style that nonetheless places The Dreamlife of Angels firmly in the French tradition of poetic realism.

hi there,
as far as I know, u pronounce "the" like "thee" whenever there is a vowel in front of the next word... but somehow I realized many Americans sometimes use the "thee"-version also in front of other words... am I right or is that total nonsense?
and the other thing is...people sometimes pronounce the indefinite article "a" like "uh" and sometimes like "a"...is that just an accent-thing or is there any rule/idea behind it?
thank you very much
The 'thee' version can be used for emphasis before consonants. Again 'uh' is the unstressed form when it is not imortant and 'a' gives emphasis to the number.
thank you!
so uhm...for example, if I say "He is THE big pop star of the 20th century", I could pronounce "THE" like "thee" in order to say he is a really big deal?
and I didn't get the rule behind "a" (pronounced like "a") yet... what I guessed is that the "a" pronounced as "a" always refers to "one"...is that wrong? I don't get it yet :( ... can you make some examples plz?
Your understanding of "the" as "thee" is correct.
For the "a" as in "bay" - you can use this to emphasize that there was only one of someting.
There were four bananas here yesterday and now there is only one! Did you take "uh" banana?
Yes, but I took "a" (rhymes with "bay") banana, not three!
I got it...Thank you so much, I really appreciate it & greetings to Pennsylvania!

Dining, food service and quality far surpasses any other cruise line we have encountered. We were made to feel special everywhere we went. The crew makes a good job of remembering your name and frequently addresses you by your name. Very nice touch. No high pressure sales tactics in the Duty Free shops. The Spirit is an older ship and is rather small by comparison to some others we have been on. The ship is immaculate clean and shows no sign of age and the smaller passenger number allows for a more intimate association with crew and staff.
By far, the most pleasing thing about the crew was their attitude. In most other cases we encountered crew who look tired, burned out on their job, overworked with forced ,weak smiles and they actually make you feel sorry for asking for anything because they are so overworked. The crew of the Spirit was genuine. Laughter, jokes and smiles abound. They were having as good a time as we were and clearly LOVE what they do. Their smiling faces will forever be in our hearts. I'd like to mention a few outstanding crew members who went the extra mile to show us a good time. Richard, assistant Maitre De in the Windows Dining room, Ked, our waiter (really a special person and an extraordinary waiter, Agus, our cabin steward. And the very best (and I'm sorry I never got his name, but you will all know who he is) The Wakey-Wakey...Good Morning....No sleepwalking in the restaurant Man, who greeted everyone at 6am with humor, smiles and enthusiasm. Setting the tone for your day with very best of warm humor and enthusiasm, even though he had to get up at 4am to put your breakfast together and still had the energy to be that cheerful.
I have one bad review. Kyle, the Cruise Director. His microphone is always turned up WAAAAAAAAAY to0 loud. So loud that I experienced pain in my inner ear canal most of the time he was talking. He seems to like to hear himself talk and goes on and on and on without really saying anything. He turns a simple informational announcement into a 20 minute long "Kyle Show" His attempts at humor are poor. Most shocking, was the fact that at every single show, during a standing ovation, Kyle will actually walk out on the stage, microphone way too loud (of course) UPSTAGE the dancers, acrobats, comics or whomever happens to be enjoying their moment of applause and start yakking over the audience. Our group was especially shocked and disappointed when he did this to the couple from the Russian Imperial Ballet. They had performed , by far, the most fantastic show I have ever seen on a cruise ship, they received a thunderous standing ovation and here comes Kyle, walking in front of them and talking over the audience applause. What terrible bad manners. We were so offended we got up and left. We made it a point to leave when ever we heard or saw Kyle. He came close to ruining a great cruise with his bad manners and cheap suits

Baptist ethicist on mandate: We'd rather go to jail, pay fines

WASHINGTON (BP) -- The Obama administration's mandate that health insurance plans cover contraceptives that can cause abortions harms not only Baptists and other religious adherents but all Americans, two Southern Baptist ethicists told a congressional panel Feb. 16.
Their comments came during a four-and-a-half-hour hearing on the federal rule's impact on freedom of religion and conscience before the Oversight and Government Reform Committee of the House of Representatives. Ten representatives of Protestant, Catholic and Jewish bodies spoke in opposition to the mandate and what critics describe as its lack of sufficient religious and conscience protections for houses of worship, religious institutions and individuals.
C. Ben Mitchell of Union University told the committee the rule "is an unconscionable intrusion by the state into the consciences of American citizens."
"Contrary to portrayals in some of the popular media, this is not just a Catholic issue," said Mitchell, Graves professor of moral philosophy at the Baptist school in Jackson, Tenn. "All people of faith - and even those who claim no faith - have a stake in whether or not the government can violate the consciences of its citizenry. Religious liberty and the freedom to obey one's conscience is also not just a Baptist issue. It's an American issue enshrined in our founding documents."
Testifying as part of the same panel, Craig Mitchell of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary told members the requirement "is wrong not just for religious conservatives."
"It's wrong for all Americans, because it takes away the freedom of the citizens while emboldening the federal government to do whatever it wants," said Craig Mitchell, associate professor of Christian ethics at the seminary in Fort Worth, Texas. "It's wrong because it violates the Constitution. It's wrong because it violates religious liberty. It's wrong because it forces people to violate their consciences. ... This ruling is just plain wrong for America."
The Mitchells, who are unrelated, added their voices to the growing public dissent by Southern Baptists against the "contraceptive mandate," as it has become known. Southern Baptist leaders have joined the leadership of the Roman Catholic Church, other Protestant bodies and some Jewish organizations in opposition to the rule since the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced Jan. 20 that health plans must cover contraceptives and sterilizations as preventive services for employees.
The HHS mandate requires all methods approved as birth control by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be included in a range of services offered to patients free of charge. Those FDA-endorsed contraceptives include ones that have abortion-causing properties -- "ella;" emergency contraception, such as Plan B, and the intrauterine device (IUD). Those methods all have mechanisms that can prevent tiny embryos from implanting in the uterine wall. In the case of "ella," it also can block production of the hormone progesterone, destroying the placenta that provides nutrition to the embryo and causing the unborn child's death.
Opponents of the rule especially have protested its failure to provide an adequate religious or conscience exemption. The rule includes an exception for employers who oppose paying for such coverage on religious grounds, but it is narrowly drawn. It will protect many churches and other houses of worship, but it apparently will not cover churches that may primarily serve people outside their faith. The exemption also will not extend to such faith-based organizations as schools, hospitals and social service programs.
After an onslaught of criticism, President Obama announced a change Feb. 10, saying religious organizations would not have to pay for or provide contraceptives if they object on religious grounds. Instead, he said, their insurance companies would be required to pay for such services.
Southern Baptist leaders and other opponents said Obama's solution did not address the religious liberty and conscience problems. Some described it as an "accounting gimmick" that would still require religious organizations to be complicit in paying for employees' abortion-causing contraceptives through their insurance companies.
Dub Oliver, president of East Texas Baptist University (ETBU), expressed concern about the mandate.
"Perhaps the most frightening aspect of this entire episode for ETBU is that we have no idea where this road will end," Oliver told the panel. "Today, the administration is trying to force us to provide our employees with abortion-causing drugs. What's next?
"If the government can force Catholic monks to dispense birth control, what can't the government do?" Oliver asked. "If the government can decide that East Texas Baptist University is not religious enough to have the right to religious liberty, what can't the government do? If this administration can just decide that religious believers are less important than its chosen policy goals, what can't it do?"
To add to opponents' dissatisfaction with the president's revision, HHS did not actually change the rule. As witnesses and at least one Republican committee member said in the Feb. 16 hearing, nothing changed after Obama's announcement. The Heritage Foundation reported the final regulation published Feb. 15 in the Federal Register did not include the language described by Obama.
The witnesses at the House panel hearing expressed a determination not to comply with the requirement even in the face of fines -- that some described as potentially in the millions of dollars -- or possible imprisonment.
Because Southern Baptists believe in a free church in a free state, "tens of thousands of us, maybe hundreds of thousands of us, would be very willing to spend nights in jail for the sake of the preservation of religious liberty," C. Ben Mitchell told the committee. "It's not just our coffers that are at risk. It is our very freedom."
Matthew Harrison, president of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod, said, "Religious people determine what violates their consciences, not the federal government. ... We must obey God rather than men, and we will."
William Thierfelder, president of the Roman Catholic Belmont Abbey College in North Carolina, told panel members, "This is an issue worth dying for, and many have."
Both Mitchells cited the religious liberty contribution of Baptists to American freedom and the efforts of such Baptist leaders of other eras as Roger Williams, John Leland and Isaac Backus.
Craig Mitchell told the committee, "The thing that concerns me is that if [administration officials] don't see this as a religious liberty issue, what do they see as a religious liberty issue? And where do they stop? What I see here is a hollowing out of what the concept of religious liberty is almost to the point of eventually it will be nonexistent."
The committee's Democrats, who are in the minority, protested the failure of the first panel of five witnesses to include a woman. The second panel included two women among five witnesses. Many focused on women's access to contraceptives, and some defended the president's announced change.
Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D.-N.Y., asked, "Where are the women?" Rep. Gerry Connolly, D.-Va., decried the hearing as a "sham."
Rep. James Lankford -- a Southwestern Seminary graduate along with both Mitchells - was one of the Republican committee members who denied the hearing was about access to contraceptives or women's rights.
The Oklahoma congressman said, "Today, this hearing is about: Can this administration, or any administration, say, 'I know your doctrine, but I have a different doctrine, and you will change your doctrine to my doctrine or I will fine you?'"
C. Ben Mitchell also is a consultant on biomedical and life issues for the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission. Craig Mitchell also is director of the Land Center for Cultural Engagement at Southwestern Seminary. ETBU, which is located in Marshall, is affiliated with the Baptist General Convention of Texas.

Join WXEL, get discounts galore at local restaurants
- 5:55 pm Thursday, February 28th, 2013 by M.M. Cloutier
I can think of several reasons why it's a good investment to become a member of our local PBS affiliate, WXEL, but for the moment, I'll just refer to a couple of self-serving motives: "Downtown Abbey" and dining deals.
As for the latter, if you make a donation of $75 or more to WXEL, you receive a WXEL MemberCard that's good for two-for-one entrees and/or other dining discounts at WXEL's participating restaurants—and as of now, there are 113 of them in Palm Beach County.
Among them: Testa's and Green's Pharmacy lunch counter in Palm Beach, and Longboards, Pistache, Leila and CityCellar Wine [More]
