Waterloo Road star Karen David on blockbusters, bullies and Bollywood
Published: 11 April 2011
Karen David is best known in the UK for her role as Ms. Cesca Montoya in BBC's Waterloo Road but she has also appeared in many a Hollywood movie and just finished filming with Robert De Niro. In an exclusive interview she talks blockbusters, bullies and Bollywood...
Let's start by getting to know a little about your background. What is your heritage?
When I go into castings people always ask me what I am. I have a bit of a tossed salad of a background. My dad is Indian Jewish - hence why my name is Karen David - and my mother is Chinese but we are part of a Himalayan tribe which is a matriarchal society called the Khasi people. I grew up in Canada and England and I feel so blessed to have the perspective from both sides of the pond.
What was your childhood like?
As a kid you kind of want to fit in with everyone and I was that awkward child and teenager. I had an infestation of zits and I was bullied at school.
Why were you bullied?
I was different. My mum tried putting me in Chinese school but that didn't work. They called me the dark ghost of China. Then she sent me to Yiddish school and that didn't work either. So finally there was an arts school that I auditioned for and they took me in. That is where you get all sorts of geeks and freaks and I fit right into those categories. It is where I began singing and acting. Now I can celebrate being different. As you get older you start to embrace your imperfections. I am comfortable now.
It must have been tough to deal with such hurtful comments...
At the time it affected me. Kids can be mean. They say really honest things and it kind of made me more determined to prove that I could make something out of myself. I became quietly ambitious. One time my vocal teacher sat down and asked every one of us what we wanted to do when we got older, I said 'be an actress and a recording artist' and people looked at me in disbelief. I used to wear pink, speckle-rimmed glasses. Now they find me on Facebook and want to be my friend.
So performing was the natural escape route?
Yes, I was bitten when I was four years old. I have a sister that is ten years older than me and she was stuck with babysitting duties so she made me listen to her music and watch her TV programmes. At four I was listening to Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet. We watched Xanadu one day and that was it. I fell in love with Olivia Newton John and wanted to be blonde and blue-eyed like her but that was never going to happen. I wanted to act in movies and sing like her.
The London Chat Show-Karen David Interview from Frank Soldato, Julian Dobrev and Michelle Tofi on Vimeo.
Did you train in the UK?
Yes, my parents originally immigrated to Britain and I was here until I was about four, then my dad got relocated to Canada. I went to Berklee to study music then I got a scholarship to come back to London to study acting at Guilford. I never thought I would leave home so early. Asian or South Asian girls usually don't leave home until they get married but I left when I was 17.
What was your first big break?
My first job out of drama college was in the original cast of Mamma Mia! My acting friends thought it would be a big flop. How wrong they were. But I realised that while I loved my time in a musical my heart was more in doing straight theatre plays and recording music separately. My first film was with James McAvoy called Bollywood Queen. Then you do your guest episodes on Holby City and one year I was spotted for The Colour of Magic, the film adaptation of Terry Prachett's novel. I love fencing and all that sort of thing. I am so girlie but I love daggers and swords. This was an amazing opportunity to indulge that side of things and work with the likes of Sir David Jason. From there I was spotted by the casting people for Scorpion King. The next thing I know I get the part and I am filming in South Africa for three months.
It sounds like you have a rather jet setting lifestyle?
Any actor will say that to be able to work and travel abroad gives you a chance to meet so many wonderful people and to learn so much about yourself. These different life experiences help make you a better actor.
Take us through a typical day on a Hollywood movie set?
I have been on both sides of the spectrum doing smaller and bigger parts. You have a lot of time in between takes. I make use of those breaks to go to my dressing room and record songs. When I am in my acting mode it inspires me to write music.
On Scorpion King there were a lot of surprises. For instance, one day I went into work and the crew told me I would have to run through fire. Every time we did a take my body was telling me to do something completely different from what my brain was saying. I just froze. The Executive Producer from Universal then stood at the other end of the fire. I ran through the fire.

You have just finished working on Red Lights with Robert De Niro. How was that?
Before I met De Niro, I had just finished filming in South Africa. I was doing a guest episode of Strike Back with Richard Armitage. My mind was so engrossed with that because I had to do my first ever love scene. I knew if the day came where I had to do this it would need to be creatively justified. It is amazing how you negotiate in your contract what you are willing to show. So I was so worried about having bared all that by the time I got to Barcelona my head was still in naked mode. When you meet a legend of an actor like De Niro you just think he is really cool. He was lovely.
You have had some Bollywood experience also. Do you think that, following films like Slumdog Millionaire, this genre of film is becoming more accessible to a wider audience?
Yes, it is fascinating to watch the growing personality of Bollywood coming to Hollywood. Certainly a lot of Hollywood films are being funded out of India with Bollywood productions and actresses like Frieda Pinto are doing very mainstream things.
Do you think Hollywood has started casting people from a more diverse range of backgrounds in recent years?
Dev Patel had said he only gets a certain role. I can imagine that does happen but it has never really happened for me. I have not been typecast in roles. I have played a Malaysian in a Kevin McDonald film and a Spanish teacher in Waterloo Road. Viggo Mortensen looks completely different in all of his films.
Waterloo Road has really raised your profile in the UK. Tell us about your role in it...
I play the young, feisty Spanish teacher Cesca Montoya. She is the youngest teacher on staff. She is there to shake things up a bit with her new ways of teaching but she happens to fall in love with a 17-year-old boy. After episode 10 they told me that the character would get involved with a teenage heartthrob, get knocked up and then go and elope. They end up getting married and she gets arrested in her wedding dress.
That is very sensitive subject matter. Were the scenes awkward to film?
Yes. Lucien Laviscount, who plays the part of the teenage boy, is 18. I am 31. Cesca is 26 in the show. I was really nervous before filming because I know it is a sensitive and controversial storyline. I am getting lots of lovely fan mail but some from teenage boys telling me things they shouldn't. I am really chuffed to bits though because JLS, Chipmunk and The Wanted have all tweeted saying they wish I was their teacher.
You have now finished working on Waterloo Road so are you focusing on your music career now?
I have always wanted to do music and acting since I was kid. It was really important to me that I paid my dues in both. I studied jazz and gospel at Berklee. There are so many talented people out there, it is a tough world. There are actors and singers that are better than me. I come from a family with no ties in the music business but I had to make those things happen. It has been a very long journey. If people Google me they will see that I have been through the whole thing of signing to the majors, then losing your A&R people and having to start from scratch. But I have signed up to a great new management company. We are planning a project called The Girl In The Pink Glasses who is an alter ego and extension of the awkward teenage girl that I was. I am going for the undercover sixties agent look. I have been spending lots of time in the studio so expect to hear more of my music soon.

How venture capitalists kill startups

Manoj Gupta Two years ago, I moved from being a venture capitalist to an entrepreneur in India. Although I had started my business in the US, the entrepreneurship journey in India was very different.

In the US, it is more like a foggy day â€" the path ahead is unclear, but you have a strong support system. One key cog of entrepreneurship seems to be doing...

Times are changing for affiliate marketers.
The top affiliates aren't single individuals working by themselves. They're full-fledged companies – either with a team of virtual assistants or in-house media buyers.
One of the problems with growing a team is handling the complexity of the organizational structure and function. You have to assign tasks, stay on top of the employees, and manage your own duties. In order to tame the chaos, I've turned to the power of systems and tools.
These systems and tools allow me to cut down on the time required to deal with business operations. I'm not in the trenches anymore, and I have more time to think about strategies to grow my businesses.
How important are the proper tools? It's like a hammer and a nail. Is it easier to push the nail in with your hands or to hit it with a hammer?
Here are my 5 favorite tools for managing a remote team.

Red Dot agrees to acquire JBAR A/C
Tina Grady Barbaccia | August 15, 2011
Red Dot Corp., a global supplier of heating and air conditioning systems, components, and aftermarket parts for heavy-duty vehicles and equipment, announced it has reached an agreement to acquire JBAR A/C Inc. of Valley View, Ohio, near Cleveland. Financial terms were not disclosed.
JBAR designs and manufactures heaters and air conditioning systems for vehicles used in construction, materials handling, and other heavy-duty applications. The company will operate as a subsidiary of Red Dot, retaining the JBAR brand, management team, and employees.
Red Dot plans to invest in additional production capacity in the Cleveland area to allow JBAR to meet the growing needs of its customers.
"This acquisition strengthens our manufacturing and distribution presence in the Eastern U.S. and Canada and expands our family of HVAC unit kits," said Randy Gardiner, president, CEO and chairman of Red Dot. "With its focus on heavy-duty markets and reputation for quality and engineering, JBAR is a perfect complement for Red Dot."
Mike Pease, president of JBAR, added: "This is an exciting opportunity for JBAR. As a Red Dot company, JBAR will be able to provide the manufacturing, customer support, distribution, and engineering resources our customers expect."
Pease will join Red Dot's senior management team and be responsible for JBAR's day-to-day operations. The agreement is scheduled to close on Sept. 1, 2011.

Comments about Duraflame 20-Inch Electric Fireplace Insert/Log Set - DFI020ARU:
we use this for ambiance and to take the chill out of crisp mornings. The flame looks very real. We returned a different one that made crackling sounds that were annoying and fake. Fires in fireplaces rarely make those sounds. This model just has quiet flames.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Midrange Shopper
We purchased the insert for ambiance and convenience, it fullfills both perfectly. The flame looks realistic, is easy to operate. The feature of using it with or without the heat is excellent, not having to clean a fireplace makes it a perfect addition to our living room. As far as we are concerned there are no disadvantages.
I am glad that I choosed this product

Fixed Our Problem Fireplace
By Problem solved
from Iowa
Our fireplace was set up as a gas fireplace and had all the parts in place including the gas logs. The problem was there was no gas to the house and it was cost prohibitive and impractical to run a gas line or set up a propane tank. The electric fireplace solved our problem. A heating and cooling expert removed all of the gas parts basically giving us an empty hearth. Then we simply set the electric fireplace unit inside and WOW!
Excellent Product!
By the Log Cabin
from Ahualoa, Hawaii
From online ordering to delivery, our order was handled efficiently and professionally. Set up was easy, and our vacation rental guests truly enjoy having a working fireplace even though it is summer and in Hawaii!
A wonderful surprise! Looks great!
By FlowerGirl
from Virginia
Got rid of the non vented gas logs and needed something to fit into the space. This unit fits well, looks very nice and not cheap. Can control the flame and heat. Such a good deal for something that can set the "mood" and even provide tootsie warming heat. And with the LED lights it will cost next to nothing to run. Good Find. Have recommended it to friends who are impressed and looking for a similar fix for their empty fireplace boxes.
Great Item, definitely would buy again
By Red Raider
About Me High-end Shopper
We are completly pleased. It provides ambiance without the problem of cleaning a woodburning fireplace. It is safer than the ethanol types and can be used for longer time periods. It was shipped and arrived within three days, packed well, easy to install. Also still able to use woodburning if we so desire. The price is great for this item. I would recommend this to my best friend.

"This product is worth every penny"
By Riley Keith
from Goleta, CA.
At first I was skeptical but when we received the product it had easy instructions and was easy to install. It was more realistic when turned on in appearance then expected and brings atmosphere and comfort to the room. It's also great for zone heating, although I don't use that feature much. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a quality product at a budget price. I am very very pleased with this product, also it was delivered in a timely manner.
Excelent product,fast delivery
By Patty
from Orlando,Fl
We decide to start enjoying a fireplace that was never used before,so we decide a fireplace insert was the best option for us.

Companies are appealing for a change to the way business rates refunds are managed
A rise could have a significant impact on UK businesses, but is there reason to panic? Nic Paton looks at the ways you can prepare
Residential construction has seen its biggest month-on-month increase since November 2003
The 'Big Six' energy suppliers have lost two million customers to smaller independent companies
In the second part of this two-part article, Nic Paton reveals four more ways to prepare your business for interest rate rises
The changes include the publishing of £50bn of potential business online and improved collaboration with businesses at a much earlier stage in the procurement process.
The government will have an "open door" policy with suppliers to discuss future contracts and departments will be encouraged to break up some major contracts to make it easier for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to bid for the work, said minister Francis Maude, who announced the changes earlier this week.
The intention is to ensure the purchasing power of the government supports growth in the UK market. Small business body the Forum of Private Businesses has welcomed the changes.
With a budget of around £230b a year, the state remains the single biggest source of work for UK business," said the forum's chief executive Phil Orford.
"Encouraging smaller firms to compete for access to Government contracts is something we have long campaigned for, and, if successful, should provide a vital source of new income for smaller firms in to the future as the UK economy grows." He added: "Competing for public procurement contracts has traditionally been a complicated, time-consuming process, making it an unattractive, remote prospect for small business. Any reform which simplifies the procurement process, demands fewer man hours and less financial outlay is clearly welcome."
Further details are expected to be announced in the Growth Review at the end of this month.

The Empire of Fangfacekitty has grown complacent 'lo these last few months since banishing the scale gremlins to the Land of Freakishly Thin Supermodels.
But the scale gremlins are nothing if not tenacious. The have been sneaking back across the border an ounce at a time in the dead of night so as not to arouse suspicions. This morning, at dawn, they attacked with a 4 lb. weight gain!
General Treadmill retired after winning the last battle yet all is not lost. Fangfacekitty has a new General in charge, General Becky, aka Crazy Me. General Becky has marshaled the troops and is putting together the battle plan while the combined forces of scale gremlins and pizza dinners attempt to breach her defenses. They shall not succeed!
Fear not concerned citizens of Spark People! The scale gremlins shall be stopped and routed once again!
A gym rat that is. According to my log I have been to the gym 9 times so far this month, or 50% of the time. Does that qualify me for gym rat status?
I've been coming here since the beginning of March. It is nothing special as gyms go. At least 1 treadmill & exercise bike has been out of order that entire time and none of the equipment is brand new, or even always works (like the fans and heart rate things on several of the treadmills). But it is 1.66 miles from home which is why I chose it. No excuses to skip when it is close enough to run / walk there, which is how I know how far it is. If I had to travel any real distance I wouldn't be as dedicated.
As is to be expected there are a number of regulars. I get a kick out of watching some of them, they are so cliche. It's like having a front row seat watching the games in high school without the drama of being a participant.
There are a few like me of both genders, who come in, get it done and leave. No fuss, lots of sweat. Low maintenance all around. We dress for comfort, zone to our music, try to be efficient in our workouts.
There are the teens / 20 somethings who travel in gender specific packs. They are mostly here to see and be seen. The girls travel in twos, the boys in packs of three or more. Girls stay on the cardio, make a show of adjusting their shorts, busts, hair, etc. Tank tops and booty shorts are the outfit of choice. They spend as much time primping and chattering as they do exercising. Rarely do they break a sweat.
The guys stay on the free weights. Their attire consists of basketball shorts and those "muscle shirts" that basically consist of a neck and waist with a thin strip of material to "cover" chest and back, and which leave their arms and sides, chests & backs completely exposed. Armpit hair exposure is such a lovely, motivating sight. The boys too spend about as much time flexing, adjusting and chattering as exercising. They do walk around a lot more though.
Then there is the group of 40 something men. They also travel in packs of 3 or more. They wear varying combinations of shorts and t-shirts. There seems to be an unwritten rule that to qualify for pack membership one must have either a brown leather back brace or weight lifting gloves or both. Those with the black fabric/Velcro attachment back braces are permitted to skulk around the edges of the pack but are obviously lower ranked.
These men also stick to the free weights but they actually use them. They walk around quite a bit too but at least don't treat everyone to side views of body hair. They grunt a lot as they try to one-up each other and spend their time between sets gossiping just as much as the women. They are constantly looking around at everyone even while lifting the weights. They are hunting.
I have not seen any packs of similarly aged women roaming about. It is possible they do their hunting during the day and not at night when I am here. Most women I see in my age group are alone and fall into the earlier mentioned "get it done" group.
Another group is the "serious" weight lifters. Can you say "steroids"? OK, that is a generalization and quite possibly unfair, but these are the men of all ages whose chests, shoulders, arms and/or legs in varying combinations have reached proportions not intended by nature. They do tend to be the younger guys and their weight lifting involves a lot of jerking and grunting. The grunting I understand because they really stack on the weights, but I think the jerking is probably not good?
Lastly there are 2 very special members. If I could get away with taking pictures I would as I cannot adequately describe them. I shall attempt to do so however.
Both are women. It is quite painfully obvious why the first one is here. She mainly concentrates on the circuit weight machines. Her outfit of choice consists of VERY low rise yoga capris (and she must have a great wax tech in order to wear them!) and a low cut sports bra. Her really long hair is pulled back into a braid, which she tosses a lot. She has to squirm around a lot on the equipment to get her seat just right, or re-adjust the weights - really it is just to squirm. She very obviously does not "notice" that she is being watched while very busily checking out all the guys while gyrating on the machine of choice. She will do maybe 5 sets before having to stop and squirm some more. Then she gets up and goes to the next machine.
But this is not a simple walk from one piece of equipment to the next. The next machine is always the one that is located the absolute farthest away from where she is. And she does not walk. I don't think there is a word to describe what she does. Think of supermodels walking on the catwalk. Multiply that by 10. Her hips roll from side to side. Her bust is thrust forward, shoulders back so for they almost touch. As she walks the shoulders gyrate from side to side, front to back in time and motion with the hips while her lower arms are held slightly away from the body. It is painful to watch. There is so much rolling going on I have to wonder how she manages to walk a straight line & not capsize.
The sad part is she is very pretty & in shape (she has defined abs for pete's sake!) and doesn't need all the shenanigans to attract someone.
The other woman is not quite so obvious. She comes in and gets her workout done without the games. But she, too, tries way too hard. Bleached blond, champion of the tanning booth and the most perfect bosom money can buy. Which she shows off in sports bras a size or more too small so that the entire gym is constantly watching to see if today is the day she pops out (and yes, you do detect some jealousy here LOL!). But to her credit she can whup my backside on the elliptical.
I don't know, maybe if I were 20 again and looked like either of these women I would be the same. Fortunately I am happy with my progress and who I am and am becoming. And know that should I wish and for the right price I, too, could be racked LOL!
4 letter words were not allowed by my parents when I was growing up. Say one and the punishment was getting your mouth washed out with soap. I don't remember it ever happening to me, although it may have once. One of my younger sisters was a slow learner though and had it done several times before she caught on LOL!
So what 4 letter word have I said lately? Well, I have a mouth like a sailor many times but this blog is not about what I say. I have noticed an incredible number of posts & blogs since I have been on SP that are just filled with a "bad word".
This is the consummate 4 letter word.
It is not allowed. If you have said it go eat that soap bar or gargle with the dish soap. I'll wait.
Every day it seems there is another post by someone who has "failed" because he or she gave in to the pressure and ate the "wrong" food, or too much, or didn't exercise, or can't just wake up one morning and go run a marathon or climb a mountain or bike the Tour de France or some other ridiculously high expectation that person had for themselves. And because that person thinks he or she has "failed" for doing or not doing any of these things s/he gets depressed and wants to just give up b/c obviously s/he was not meant to be healthy / skinny / active / fit / whatever.
Bull puckey & horse twaddle. I'm not a patient person by nature & I admit to having a hard time reading about how this person or that one failed. I have little interest in doing so any more.
The only way to fail is not to try at all!
Just by being here every one of us is trying.
No one is perfect. Being fit and healthy is hard work. Losing weight is even harder work. There is no magic pill or drink or prayer or anything that will make us skinny, healthy and fit without effort from us - and believe me I am the first person who wishes it were just that easy!
I'll say it again, louder this time:
Overeating happens. Skipping a workout happens. You can't go from couch to marathon just by waking up one morning.
So what if you overate today. Tomorrow is a new day, figure out what happened to cause the overeating and fix the issue, or avoid it until you can fix it. Come up with an alternate plan if you can't fix it or avoid it. DON'T use it as an excuse. No one made you do it and it is not a license to keep on that path.
So what if you skipped your workout. Workout tomorrow. Kick it up a notch. DON'T use it as an excuse to stop exercising.
So what if you ate that candy bar. The world is not going to end. There are no forbidden foods (unless you have a medical issue). Eat more fruits, veggies, grains, whatever at your next meal. Get back on your plan. DON'T think you now have permission to swallow every artificially sweetened over-processed bit of pseudo-food in sight.
The last few weeks I have eaten over my calorie range several times. I've counted gardening as my cardio instead of going running or biking like I said I would. I've avoided doing several of strength training workouts I had planned to do. Today at lunch I had a 2 scoop ice cream cone and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Does that mean I've failed at my nutrition and fitness plans? Does that mean I've failed on my Spark Journey? Does that mean I'm a failure?
Look at my ticker. Does it look like I've failed?
Read my monthly recap blogs about my goals. Does it sound like I've failed?
Go check out the Spark Motivators...every one of them has made mistakes, stumbled, had moments of doubt. Are they failures?
So why do you think you have failed because you're not perfect? Have you tried?
Just because you don't succeed 100% of the time only means you are human. Did Edison invent the light bulb on the first try? Did Lincoln win every election? Did Michael Jordan win every game, sink every shot taken? Were they failures?
Repeat after me...
"The only way I can fail is not to try at all." (Fangfacekitty)
"There is no failure except in no longer trying" (Elbert Hubbard)
"Winners lose more than losers. They win and lose more than losers, because they stay in the game." (Terry Paulson)
"No man is ever whipped until he quits - in his own mind." (Napoleon Hill)
"If you have made mistakes, even serious ones, there is always another chance for you. What we call failure is not the falling down, but the staying down." (Mary Pickford)
Repeat as often as necessary.
And say the bad 4 letter word again not only will I have to come kick your butt back in gear...but I'm gonna have to tell your mom on you.
My new motto: Just do it anyway.
Actually it is "Quit your bitchin' wussy girl, suck it up & get it done." But that is a bit rude and not quite sound bite material lol!
The bunnies have been finding a way into my garden, I have had to chase 2 of them out several days this week. I suspect they get in through the gate, it is hard to keep it closed enough to prevent a gap in the rabbit fencing attached to the bottom. They look at me like "How DARE you chase us out of OUR garden!". At least now that the tree boxes are done & project pictures taken I put fencing around the kiwi trees and they are starting to come back now that the bunnies aren't eating them anymore.
I signed Jacq up for a youth triathlon next month, in Greenville, SC. My parents live about an hour away from Greenville and she will be down there visiting about that time. 200 meter swim, 5 mile bike ride, 1 mile run. So we need to get some pool time in over the next few weeks. Unfortunately the local high school / community pool doesn't post their hours anywhere online that I can find so I'll have to go up there tomorrow & see if they've finally started posting hours on the door. When I was swimming to get ready for summer camp 2 years ago they didn't post hours for whatever reason so we'll see.
My cat Rocky Road has discovered a new protein source. The kids feed her fish flies. Or they let her on the front porch so she can grab them off of the front door herself. Today she also ate a big black ant and a spider she found in the raspberry bushes.
The raspberries are intent on world domination. They are spreading like crazy, even though contained behind the fencing. I'm very glad I put the fencing up last month before they got too big otherwise I wouldn't be able to walk behind the back garage at all right now. I'm getting a bumper crop of berries, they are just at the point where I'll start needing to go picking every day to keep up with them. Fortunately using them up isn't a problem.
According to the doctor I have gallstones & I am "fortunate" that they are "really big". Apparently they are too big to get stuck in one the bile ducts so I have been spared the worst of the pain and therefore my gall bladder isn't inflamed or infected. But it will still have to come out at some point b/c there is no guarantee that I won't get smaller stones that will get stuck. I just need to find time to have it done. I really don't want to have to take the time off work or training. I'd like to save some vacation days to carry over into January for our trip to London for New Year's.
Tomorrow I really have to do some baking, no excuses. I now have 5 jumbo zucchini from the garden this week. Zucchini bread, zucchini carrot muffins, saut�ed zucchini, whatever other recipes I can find. 'Cuz more are growing. If only my tomatoes would ripen & my hot peppers would grow really soon now, I am getting impatient. Salsa using only the jalape�os just isn't the same and there are no habaneros in the stores right now.
And I think this is all for tonight, hope everyone had a wonderful day!
With a message from the crazy.
Hey everyone, Becky here! Fangfacekitty sometimes refers to me as "Crazy Me" but that is not the case at all! I'm here to make sure that we become all we can be, just like the Army commercial says!
I've taken control of our body while FFK is preoccupied with banging her head on the wall after somehow deleting the music from her iPod. While she's figuring out how to get it all back I just wanted to let you all know that I have downloaded and completed the application for a half marathon in September! We can do it! FFK just hasn't accepted it yet, but she'll come around! WE CAN DO IT! We can and we will! This is for our own good! After all, with all of you awesome Spark Friends, and me as an alter ego, there's no way we can fail!
I've got to run & get this submitted and paid for before FFK realizes what I've done for us.
We can do it!!!
And now back to our regularly scheduled routine.

REDMOND, Wash. — July 5, 2007 —Microsoft Corp. today announced that it will expand its global Xbox 360™ warranty coverage. Any Xbox 360 customer who experiences a general hardware failure indicated by three flashing red lights will now be covered by a three year warranty from date of purchase. All other existing Xbox 360 warranty policies remain in place.
As a result of what Microsoft views as an unacceptable number of repairs to Xbox 360 consoles, the company conducted extensive investigations into potential sources of general hardware failures. Having identified a number of factors which can cause general hardware failures indicated by three red flashing lights on the console, Microsoft has made improvements to the console and is enhancing its Xbox 360 warranty policy for existing and new customers.
Microsoft stands behind its products and is taking responsibility to repair or replace any Xbox 360 console that experiences the "three flashing red lights" error message within three years from time of purchase free of charge, including shipping costs. Microsoft will take a $1.05 billion to $1.15 billion pre-tax charge to earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 for anticipated costs under its current and enhanced Xbox 360 policies.
"The majority of Xbox 360 owners are having a great experience with their console and have from day one. But, this problem has caused frustration for some of our customers and for that, we sincerely apologize," said Robbie Bach, president of Microsoft's Entertainment & Devices Division. "We value our community tremendously and look at this as an investment in our customer base. We look forward to great things to come."
For any customer who has previously paid for repair expenses related to the three flashing lights error message on the Xbox 360 console, Microsoft will retroactively reimburse them.
At 2:30 p.m. PDT today, Microsoft will hold a teleconference for financial analysts and investors with Robbie Bach, president of Entertainment and Devices, Chris Liddell, senior vice president and chief financial officer, and Frank Brod, corporate vice president and chief accounting officer to discuss today's announcement. To participate, U.S. residents can dial +1-888-459-9165, and those outside the United States can dial +1-773-799-3324. The passcode is MSFT. The call will be available for playback beginning approximately one hour after the conclusion of the call through 5 p.m. PDT on Thursday, July 12, 2007. To access the playback, U.S. residents can dial +1-866-363-4143, and those outside the United States can dial +1-203-369-0210. An audio webcast of the conference call will also be made available at the Investor Relations site at http://www.microsoft.com/msft.

It's lovely. At one time it may have been my dream home but not now. Dreams change. Now when I see large homes and large yards all I can think of is all the work and expense to keep it nice. I'm VERY happy with my tiny little place.

"The headline figures are very much below the market forecast even if you add the official unusual items back."
Related quotes
"In context, those comments might have seemed fairly acceptable. But the market goes by headlines, and seeing that headline, the market sold the dollar."
"I think the market is really focusing on the financial aspects (not news headlines). We want to see if this debt load will stop being a drag on capital investment going forward. The consumer has done his work."
"I think we're still in a very headline-driven market and the geopolitical concerns are going to continue to outweigh the fundamentals."
"The market is obviously buying the higher-than-expected headline but for me its still looks expensive."
"Every headline minute-to-minute dictates what the market is going to do. I think there are going to be more torturous, slow days."
"The market may be a little disappointed by the 2007 number. The headline number looks okay, but I would point out some quality issues as there are a high number of exceptional items."

'One Night with Janis Joplin' a Powerhouse success
Asked just weeks before her death what young people were looking for, 27-year-old Janis Joplin was quick to answer: "Sincerity and a good time."
It's an apt description of what Joplin repeatedly delivered from stage, and it also neatly sums up "One Night With Janis Joplin," the amazing show - created, written and directed by Randy Johnson - now in town as a special Milwaukee Repertory Theater production. »Read Full Article(3)

Shawn Chrystopher - All the Other Kids
Artist: Shawn Chrystopher
Producer: Shawn Chrystopher
Album: TBD
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 9 total votes )
I've noticed DJBooth Freestyle Series alum Shawn Chrystopher, promoting his new single All the Other Kids on Twitter for the past few days now; he even promised to follow everyone who posted a link to it. Frankly, I didn't really pay attention (I'm not someone whose sole mission in life is to get followers), but now I realize I should've looked at Shawn's tweets more closely. All the Other Kids, impressively produced by Shawn himself, is a fusion of indie rock and laid-back, yet up-tempo hip hop the likes of which we've never really heard before. Accompanied by Shawn's raspy voice and dedicated to all of those who, like him, were picked last at basketball in grade school but are now on top, The Other Kids makes for a great story and an even better single for Shawn Chrys; he blends these elements together with the skill that would impress any alchemist (with a lower-case "a"). Having recently dropped The Audition, Shawn is slowly working toward a new project, the title and release date of which are still up in the air.
