Baltimore Ravens Beat Cleveland Browns, 23-16, as NFL Officials Return
Outdoor Griz Viewing Party is Saturday
As all fans know, the Montana Grizzlies are playing the Eastern Washington Eagles at Eastern Washington on Sept. 29.
For those that can't make the drive to Cheney, KGVO has teamed up with Root Sports and Five Star Satellite to show the game live on 10 big screen TVs under the tent at our Town Pump Outdoor Griz Viewing Party.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell's Phone Number is Now Public Following Controversial Call by Replacement Refs in Seahawks – Packers MNF Game
Poll – Was the Final Call of the Seahawks vs. Packers Monday Night Football Game the Worst MNF Call of All Time?
I'm a huge Seahawks fan - like so huge that I was jumping up and down in the middle of Buffalo Wild Wings as it appeared that the Seahawks had beat the Green Bay Packers in tonight's (Sept. 24) Monday Night Football game. However, after seeing the replay, it became rapidly clear to me, and the other Seahawks fans in the bar, that we had nothing to cheer about.
Unhappy Homecoming for Montana Grizzlies
'Streaks were meant to be broken'. 'It had to happen sometime'. Phrases like these were overheard after the Northern Arizona Lumberjacks came into Washington Grizzly stadium in Missoula and do what few teams had done...beat Montana...and during Homecoming.
High School JV Football Game Cancelled for Lack of Officials
The Sentinel High School vs. Flathead High School JV football game scheduled for 3:30 p.m. today, Sept. 21, in Missoula has been cancelled. It has been rescheduled to 4 p.m., Monday, Sept. 24, in Kalispell at Flathead High School. Clarification: This game was canceled because school officials were unable to secure enough referees, not because of poor air quality. The 7 p.m. varsity game at Missoula County High School stadium is still scheduled.

Would love to buy more of these. Type of accessories
Mine has a little chip at the wing, and it is OK for me - other may want to swap. It is cute.
The friend I gave it to called to tell me how much she likes it.
I ordered this as a gift for my Mother. It arrived 2 days early! Which was great. It is beautiful, much more so than the photograph. It came in a box for wrapping too! I am very happy with my order. I would recommend this to my friends.
This is a beautiful pin, it is nicely made with vibrantly colorful stones. It will last as long as taken proper care of. The only downside is you have to wipe the soot off from the edges so it does not get on your clothes. It was also a bit smaller than expected.

Landscape Painter Nancy Spaulding To Conduct Art Walk at American Camp
Contact: Mike Vouri, 360-378-2240, ext. 2227
Join San Juan Island artist Nancy Spaulding to learn how she utilizes photography and sketching on site during a artist workshop scheduled for 2 p.m., Saturday, August 17 meeting in the American Camp parking area.
Call the park at 360-378-2240, ext. 2233, or the library at 360-378-2798 for more information.
Nancy's workshop is for all levels of experience. Bring paper, pen, pencil, or pastels, a digital camera, sturdy shoes and a sunhat (if necessary).
A formal art education was the plan but Nancy left the University of Arizona shortly before earning her degree in order to join the domestic peace corps. She served as a VISTA Volunteer to two years. Following that experience she kept up with her hands on approach to art and has managed to continue working as an artists over the years and into the present time.
"An island with edges but yet broad sweeping vistas provides a meditative environment," Nancy said. "It is a place removed, but not so much as to feel separate from the rest of the world. I often laugh and say you can see the rest of the world from here!"
Did You Know?
Many of San Juan Island's roads trace sheep runs cut by Hudson's Bay Company workers. They were led, in part, by Fort Victoria Chief Factor and colonial Gov. James Douglas, from 1853 to 1859. Many of the workers were Cowichan Indians from Vancouver Island.

Marc Anthony says ex-wife had to sell her home because the wife of the married man she was banging was yelling "whore" through a bullhorn in front of her house and wouldn't stop.
Dayanara Torres is trying to increase her child support payments from $13K a month to $113K. She says she's so strapped for cash she had to sell her home and now she's living with the 2 kids in a hovel of an apartment in the San Fernando Valley.
But Marc tells a very different story. In legal docs he says Dayanara was SHAMED out of the house because the wife of her adulterous lover took to the sidewalk "with a bullhorn yelling 'whore' for the whole neighborhood to hear."
Marc says the scorned woman was so unrelenting ... he sent his own security to help.
And, he says, part of her financial plight is her own doing, because she ended up selling the house at a loss. Lesson -- don't bang married men.
Dayanara denies the whole bullhorn incident.
She's not pretty enough to be miss universe. Not then and certainly not now.
More CHILD support. Are you kidding me ....there are women out there taking care of their children on just a third of what she gets. The bitch doesn't need fancy things all she needs is to be a mother to her children not a mother to her men. Tell her to keep her legs closed and be a mom....
#1- $13k a month in just cash child support is more than plenty. MORE than enough. I'm fairly certain that if some necessary, crazy, rare expense came up, Marc would cover it so as to not take away from his children. But let's face it, those types of expenses are few and far between. #2 Do we need to define that cash child support is only supposed to be pay for the children's expenses. At $13k a month, Marc is more than doing his part. #3 She gets alimony payments. #4 She walked away with a divorce settlement that included cash, valuables, and property #5 Child support is meant to SUPPLEMENT what the other parent already contributes. It is not meant to support the children 100%. What is she doing for her part? If she wants her children to live a more lavish lifestyle, then she should be responsible for coming up with the extra cash. Get a job! #7 Let's be honest... she isn't really asking for child support. She is truly asking for more financial support for HERSELF, but filing and categorizing it as child support because that is the only way she has a shot at getting it. This "mom" comes off as a gold-digging, selfish, piece of crap. She wants to live the regal luxury life. That $$ request is for her. Not the kids. #8 I could quite easily provide a privileged, wonderful life for my children with an extra $13k per month to supplement my own career income, along with the alimony and other property and goods she has received. Quite easily. So where is HER responsibility in all this?!
She denies the bullhorn incident but she looks like a whore
A classic case of you reap what you sow. Dumb bitch.
13k???? That's over $400 a day. And now she wants $4k per day??? What does the kid eat?
La princesa putina
Unless the child has a severe disability that requires extensive medical treatment then up the child support but definitely not by how much she wants... And if the child is a normal healthy child, then that bitch needs to get a better job and stop thinking she can live off of child support!
These high maintenance bitches always think they deserve more child support, but it's only so they can continue to live the lavish luge off of someone else's money.... Poor kid, some mothers are such trash no matter what story they try to spit out
you know it is a shame whether she is whore or not, he did the same thing and is not a man to talk about a woman no matter what especially one that is the mother of his children. She can do whatever, why is that one a man sleeps around while he is married is ok but when a woman sleeps around is not ok. No one is saying that they did the same to the guy in question. And for the woman that did that if she did, she should be ashame of herself making a spectacle like that, means she really does not have a marriage at all if the other was able to sleep with her husband in the first place.
is sad for the kids, they;ve always had a bad relationship, I wouldnt believe marc, is not right for him to talk about like that of the mother of his kids, plus she has barely dated a couple of guys more info here http://dailyentertainmentnews.com/tv/married-man-mark-anthonys-ex-wife-dayanara-torres-affair/
He always marry hoes
Im sure his kids barely see their dad. So, i say....pay up! He make 1 million a month!!!

Geoff Tate's second solo album arrives at a time that long seemed impossible. The erstwhile leader of Queensrÿche, his voice was more than synonymous with the band's legacy. To think of Queensrÿche without Tate was absurd, because no band could survive losing not only its public face, but also the member most responsible for shaping the trajectory of their career. To lose Tate, it would be assumed, would be to commit career suicide. And yet, as we have seen countless times before, life doesn't follow along with what common sense would dictate.
Joe's going to hate this.
... and other words for "boner".

Pennyloafs - Jeep Music
Artist: Pennyloafs
Producer: G Force
Album: PennyLoafs EP
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 6 total votes )
Thanks to Jeep Music, PennyLoafs' new DJBooth world premiere and follow-up to previously-featured video single 19th, you no longer need to drive a Cadillac or a Crown Vic to cruise. For example, press play in a Hyundai Elantra or Volkswagen Passat and the record that bumps through your speakers will transform your ride into Jeep convertible on the Vegas strip. This feeling is created, in part, do to the creamy production of duo member G Force. However, not only does the beat scream joyride but iLLA's carefree lyrics and interesting vocal arrangements are sure to make rush hour seem like vacation. iLLA demonstrates his versatility by also providing the song its hook, which really hammers home the chill vibe. So schedule a spin for December 10, that is after you download the pair's self titled project.

The Curonian Spit
... so the extravagance continues!! Nevertheless settled into a quiet spot and set out to find out more about the dunes, and to keep an eye out for "elk, deer and boar", which apparently were everywhere on the spit. Near our camp site was one of the main dune viewing spots (they try to keep people off the dunes where possible to reduce erosion etc.). Strange feeling to view across sand dunes knowing that we were looking at a part of Russia just 3km away. James ...

The northern 52 km long stretch of the Curonian Spit peninsula belongs to Lithuania, while the rest is part of the Kaliningrad Oblast, Russia. The Curonian Spit is home to the highest moving (drifting) sand dunes in Europe. Their average height is 35 meters, but some attain the height of 60 metres. Between 10 and 20 million birds fly over the Spit during spring and fall migrations, and ...

LAPD's planning pays off; peaceful May Day
By Joel Rubin
LOS ANGELES — Hours before protesters kicked off pro-immigration marches Thursday, dozens of high-ranking Los Angeles Police Department officers gathered at a high-tech command center for a final planning session. In the middle of the meeting, Police Chief William J. Bratton unexpectedly stepped into the room, arms crossed, a stern look on his face.
"May 1st last year was an embarrassment for this department. It was the most embarrassing experience I've had in 38 years of policing," he said, breaking the silence. "It will not be repeated today."

Zeigler Leads ULM Over Cajuns, 8-2
All season long, Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns have struggled against good left-handed pitching and Thursday night they ran into one of the league's best lefties.
Randy Zeigler pitched a complete game five-hitter and Louisiana-Monroe's bats came alive in the third and fourth innings as ULM downed the Cajuns 8-2 in game one of their three game series at M

The Tigers beat the A's 5-4 in the teams' season series, and six of the nine games were held in Oakland. Does this mean anything? It was the first season series edge for the Tigers since 2000.

The A's brass split 5-5 on whether to start Loaiza or Harden in Game 2, and somebody with a master vote (guess who?) broke the tie in favor of Esteban. I would have voted in favor of the young dude with the real fastball, but Loaiza is the safer choice. This way, Harden is only […] [Read More]

So far, the 2013 movie season has been pretty dreadful. Aside from Oscar-nominated pictures going into wider release, there hasn't been much to choose from at the multiplex, but relief is around the corner. Steven Soderbergh continues the run into his hiatus with one of two movies he'll be dropping this year, the thriller "Side Effects." A brand new U.K. trailer featuring lots of new footage has arrived to serve up a fresh look at the film.
Starring Rooney Mara, Channing Tatum, Jude Law and Catherine Zeta-Jones the story centers on a young woman who turns to pills to deal with the anxiety when her husband is released from prison. But they don't put those warnings in those TV ads for nothing, and soon a lot of freaky stuff starts happening, with murder, sex, blackmail and all kinds of unsavory stuff seemingly coming into play. Screenwriter Scott Z. Burns has said that the movie is his attempt at a "modern noir" and this latest look certainly has that flavor.
"Side Effects" will get you treated on February 8th. Watch below. [Guardian/Bleeding Cool]

it's interesting the way this shifts focus onto jude law - for uk auds maybe, as he's a bigger star name in uk - but it casts him in a totally different light from the US promo stuff, in which he came across as the villain. now he seems to be the hero. just marketing, or spoilers?

For players who like to take charge and be in control of the game, then Nike have the perfect offering with their CTR360 Libretto III FG Football Boots.Inspired by the top-end CTR360 Maestri III model, this version is still very much about performance all be it at a more affordable price. The defining feature is the inclusion of the control pads positioned along the instep, aiding in passing and receiving for total control. Although not as prominent as its superior model, they still play a pivotal role in enhancing your game.A subtle, but functional touch, regards the lacing system which has been deliberately positioned slightly off centre. This follows the direction of the 3D control pad and enhances the outside to generate a more delicate touch.The FG sole plate features a series of strategically positioned moulded studs which have been created to tackle firm natural surfaces. Whether on the training ground or in match mode, you can be assured of high performance from the moment you step foot onto the pitch. To help banish those dark winter days, Nike have warmed up your play with a double dose of atomic and total orange to brighten the mood.

Patent Breadth, Patent Life, and the Pace of Technological Progress
AbstractIn active investment climates where firms sequentially improve each other's products, a patent can terminate either because it expires or because a non-infringing innovation displaces its product in the market. We define the length of time until one of these happens as the effective patent life, and show how it depends on patent breadth. We distinguish lagging breadth, which protects against imitation, from leading breadth, which protects against new improved products. We compare two types of patent policy with leading breadth: (1) patents are finite but very broad, so that the effective life of a patent coincides with its statutory life, and (2) patents are long but narrow, so that the effective life of a patent ends when a better product replaces it. The former policy improves the diffusion of new products, but the latter has lower R&D costs. Copyright (c) 1998 Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Plot Summary: Disney's fantastical adventure "Oz The Great and Powerful," directed by Sam Raimi, imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum�s beloved character, the Wizard of Oz. When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he's hit the jackpot--fame and fortune are his for the taking--that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone's been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity--and even a bit of wizardry--Oscar transforms himself not only into the great and powerful Wizard of Oz but into a better man as well.

Final project for level 1 draping course. Straight-cut 1920s shift dress with inset doubled handkerchief skirt in white charmeuse and chain-embellished collar. Fully lined.
The skirt inset seam was difficult to ease in and sew due to one-piece cutting – professor's notes were to add style lines in the skirt and draft straight seams to make it easier.

CATEGORIES Interviews, Interviews, HorrorIn honor of the DVD and Blu-ray release of Joe Johnston's The Wolfman remake, Universal was kind enough to arrange an interview between Horror Squad and legendary makeup maestro Rick Baker. I'm not going to pretend like I wasn't intimidated to do it, either, but once the man behind a fleet of iconic masks opened the conversation with fond memories of his similarly-named friend, Kevin Peter Hall, who played Harry in Harry and the Hendersons, I knew there wasn't any reason to be intimidated.
What I didn't realize, however, was how candid Baker would be about his work on The Wolfman. The film quickly became notorious due to a torrent of production problems and, fortunately for us, Baker was happy to open up about what were actual problems with the film and what may have just been symptomatic of fan backlash.
Horror Squad: So why the pursuit of The Wolfman over any of the other projects in Hollywood? I know that you've said once you heard about the film you actively went after it, which is not something you normally do.
Rick Baker: It's one the films that made me want to do what I do for a living. It's one of the films that made me who I am. So many people of my generation all grew up with that shock theater package on television of Frankenstein, Wolfman, Dracula, Mummy, all the Universal stuff. And then we had Famous Monsters of Film Land magazine, we had the Aurora model kit stuff. It's a film that kind of just shaped my being, you know?
When I heard they were doing it, my first fear was that they would go an entire CG route. I said that if they did it in makeup, I had to do it; I have to do a movie called Wolfman. So I was really glad they liked the fact that they wanted to use makeup and that they wanted to use me because I would have been really disappointed otherwise.
HS: Are you satisfied with the end result?
Baker: Am I ever satisfied with the end result? No, I don't think I ever am because you only see things you think you would do differently or shots that aren't in the final film that you spent so much time on . I did enjoy it still. It's always hard the first time you watch any film that you do because you see all that stuff. The second time I saw it I went with a real movie crowd and it's like, you know what, it's a monster a movie. It's what I've been waiting to see, an old school monster movie. It's not a knife-wielding guy chopping up teenagers in the most graphic way possible-- I'm not a real fan of slasher movies. Monster gore is a different thing to me. It's a curse that turns him into a beast; it's a different thing that can be more fun. I find it kind of disturbing when people cheer when someone just gets stabbed brutally.
HS: Do you have any favorite effects that didn't make the final cut of the film?
Baker: [Laughs] We won't go there. The toughest thing on this film was everybody trying to figure out what the movie was. Everybody wanted to be true to the original material but they had to make it so a modern audience would enjoy it. That was always a concern. Making movies is just such a hard thing to do. I'm always amazed movies even get finished yet alone are sometimes good. It's a miracle.
HS: Once it was announced that the transformations would be 100% CGI, I think that tainted a lot of fan's perception of what was and wasn't digital. But once you see the making-of segments of the Blu-ray, it's amazing how much of your work is in the final film.
Baker: It is.
HS: And I know that you're actually a big proponent of marrying CGI with practical effects. Is it tough on you as an artist to have to balance what fans think they want with what's best for them?
Baker: CGI has a lot of backlash now. I think it's just because there are so many people doing it. It's a tool and it's only as good as the people behind it. When you have some amazingly talented people doing it, you get some amazing work. When you have some not-so talented people doing it, you get some not-so amazing work.
My whole beef with the CG thing is that it's made for sloppy filmmaking. So often it's like, "we'll fix it post," but it's just stuff you could do there, on the day and not have to spend a great deal of money fixing it in post. You can also put off decisions. That was part of the whole reason the transformation is CGI. They didn't want to think about it then, "If we do it CGI, we can finish the movie and then start thinking about it."
With me, I only have the preproduction time to try and get the stuff made. I couldn't get answers out of anybody. The first thing I said was, "I don't know how we're going to do transformations in this movie." People were expecting what we did in American Werewolf 30-years ago and they want 30-years of advancements.
In American Werewolf we had a naked man changing into a four-legged hound from hell. Here we have Benicio del Toro, whose practically a f*cking werewolf already, and then we have Benicio with a little more hair on him. I didn't know how we were going to make it a big deal.
I actually came up with the suggestion of it not being a linear transformation. He shouldn't go from A, being Benny, to C, being the Wolfman; he should go off in crazy directions. I did some animations on my computer where I held up his hand and tweaked his fingers like his fingers tweak in the movie. The claws grew, but we've seen that a million times. I though, "We'll just go in these crazy directions first and then he gets reined into the wolfman in the end."
They used some of my suggestions and they scanned some sculptures that we did, but I was pretty much aced out of their whole thing, which was disappointing. I think they did some terrific work, though.
HS: It works astonishingly well in the film, I just think some people didn't like the concept of CG transformations.
Baker: Yeah. Part of that maybe my fault because I was bitching at Comic-Con about the transformations being all-CG and it kind of became "Rick Baker hates CG!" And I don't! If I had done the transformations myself there would have been a hell of a lot of CG, you'd be crazy not to use that tool.
HS: You just would have taken a different approach to the production?
Baker: Yeah, you have an actor like Benicio, you want to see him. I would have done some stages where it's him with stuff on his face doing things, not just completely replacing his face. But again, I think they did some terrific work.
It was a hard movie to do and there were disappointing times on it, but when you go on a set and you're in the forest and it's filled with fog and there's gypsys and people on horseback and a wolfman roaming around, it's like "I'm working on a monster movie!" You know? When we were in London, in these places that were the same as they were in the 1800s and people are in period costumes, it's like time travel. You're seeing people as they looked then and the city as they looked then; it's like going back in time. It's really cool.
HS: Well, watching the Blu-ray, there's a great segment on your original makeup tests on yourself. Aside from the cameos you do from time to time, have you given any thought to spending more time in front of the camera? You were a great character performer, I thought.
Baker: Yeah, but I'm a terrible cue-card reader. The thing about the DVD is they had me reading the teleprompter, which I didn't know I was going to have to do. I don't read well, I'm kind of dyslexic, so when I saw the DVD I thought people would buy it just to make fun of me. I told the people at work you've gotta get this because I know I would give someone a ton of shit if I saw them have to do it like that.
It would be fun for me if it was a part in makeup. I love making scary faces, that's just how I grew up. I like to know what it's like on the other side, what I'm putting someone through.
The main reason I did that makeup test for this movie, though, is because it was seven months before we started filming. I did a whole slew of designs and basically the director said, "I don't see it in there," but I did. I did the man and the wolfman and a whole range between to let them pick where they thought it should be and they go, "Well it's not in that range." But I pushed that it had to be in that range. They just weren't seeing the Photoshops that I was doing, so I thought makeup would be so much more clear.
So I did that makeup on myself and filmed it and sent it to them thinking this would be it and he still didn't think it was right. Though, mind you, it is pretty much what we ended up doing, but this was seven months beforehand. I ended up scuplting the appliances for Benicio two weeks before filming, and that's one of the things that pissed me off. I could have had a room full of appliances by then and everything done the way it should be done and prepared. I wouldn't have had to hope that it worked.
HS: That's a shame.
Baker: Yeah.
HS: However, and this is a testament to you, I don't think those frustrations are evident in the final film.
Baker: Oh, I'm still pleased with how he looks and I think it looks pretty good. I just also know that I maybe could have gotten sleep some nights -- well, days, since we were working nights most of the time. That prep time, if we could have utilized it properly, would have helped. It was a pleasure working with everyone on the film, though, and that made it fun.
Benny is a monster kid. He had a poster of the Wolfman in his bedroom and he and his brother would play Wolfman and Frankenstein. Every day he would bring in some new monster magazine he just bought online. I knew them all by heart, so right away we bonded.
HS: That's great.
Baker: Until he told me he likes Glenn Strange's Frakenstein's monster more than Boris Karloff's, so I threw him out of the makeup trailer. But then we kind of agreed because he told me the only time he really liked him was Abbot and Costelo Meet Frankenstein, so we became friends again.
HS: Since you're a big fan of digital modeling and working on computers, I'm just curious from a techincal perspective if you've been doing anything with 3D printers and whether the rise in quality of that tech has altered your methods at all?
Baker: I've printed a few little busts of things that I've sculpted digitally. Actually, I've got a little one of Benicio and a little one of the Wolfman. I don't do it much in my work because we're so detail oriented, though mind you those printers are getting really, really detailed. But there's also so much work on the person's face itself.
I know a lot of it is being used on superhero stuff for the costumes. It's great for that and symmetry as well. If you're doing smooth, hard things, it's the way to go for sure. I'm looking forward to the next generation of 3D printers. In the last couple years it's come a really long way.
I went to have something printed a few years back and they showed me some examples. I didn't bother because I knew the detail I wanted wouldn't show up, but now the little ones are much better. It's a tool. I sculpt digitally and then paint in Photoshop and what's great about doing it digitally is I'm not modeling a 3D dimensional thing. I can look at in 3D from every angle. But I don't think people that only model digitally know what it's like to do a real world sculpture where you can't do two sides at the same time, where you can't move something globally.
I don't know if you've seen my Bela Lugosi Dracula, but I did a CG Dracula model in between Abbot and Costelo Meet Frankenstein and Dracula at an age we never saw him at. I did it with a software called Zbrush and Moto, which is a rendering software, and it's great because I can just pull or compress lengths when I need to; you can't do that with plaster. It's really hard to do likenesses that way, though, because the most minute detail can make or break it, but it's a very, very interesting tool. Check it out, it's on the Internet somewhere.

Publisher's Description
Dylan loves his family's yearly vacation to Holiday and wishes it could last all year. When he finds a flyer asking if he'd like to keep Holiday, he encounters a bigger and better Holiday than the one his family has always visited; he also learns that entering it requires the Founder's authorization. Thus begins Dylan's quest to meet the one of whom people keep saying: "You can't find the Founder; he finds you./He's not just the Founder, he's the Finder too."
As Dylan reads of Holiday's origins, he experiences a number of adventures and meets characters who represent the sights and sounds he always finds in Holiday-characters who explain how each of these familiarities points to the Founder's previous rescue of the city's inhabitants. And the more Dylan learns, the more he longs to personally know the one who holds the key to entering the "real Holiday."
Writing for elementary-age children and older, author, teacher, and grandmother Starr Meade offers a book that families can read together, discovering along with Dylan how God brings a person to faith. Keeping Holiday is also a charming, insightful way to help children grasp the meaning of the Incarnation.
