Theme: The Choices We Make
Toronto, ON, Canada
September 26th, 2013
About this event
This year, our programming will centre around the theme The Choices We Make. This year's conference will be held at Koerner Hall at The Royal Conservatory of Music. This truly world-class facility is designed in the tradition of the classic "shoebox" venues of Europe. Its layered ribbon of wood forms a floating ceiling canopy, integrating an acoustic reflector, performance lighting, and technical bridges that provide a dramatic, yet intimate ambience. With excellent acoustics, amazing sightlines, and superb design, we are sure this year's venue will help to make TEDxToronto 2013 an event to remember

American Tobacco Co. v. WerckmeisterAnnotate this Case
- Syllabus
- Case
U.S. Supreme Court
American Tobacco Co. v. Werckmeister, 207 U.S. 284 (1907)
American Tobacco Company v. Werckmeister
No. 28
Argued October 30, 1907
Decided December 2, 1907
In construing a statute, while the court must gain the legislative intent primarily from the language used, it must remember the objects and purposes of the statute and the conditions of its enactment, so as to effectuate, rather than destroy the spirit of that intent.
The purpose of the copyright statute is not so much to protect the physical thing created as to protect the right of publication and reproduction, and the statute should be construed in view of the character of the property intended to be protected.
In the case of a painting, map, drawing, etc., the copyright notice required by § 4962 Rev.Stat. need not be inscribed upon the original article itself; the statute is complied with if the notice is inscribed upon the published copies thereof which it is desired to protect.
In the United States, property in copyright is the creation of federal statute passed in the exercise of the power vested in Congress by Article I, § 8, of the federal Constitution, to promote the progress of science and the useful
arts by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries, and the statute should be given fair and reasonable construction to effect such purpose.
The federal copyright statute recognizes the separate ownership of the right of copying from that which inheres in the physical control of the thing itself, and gives to the assigns of the original owner of the right to copyright the right to take out copyright independently of the ownership of the article itself.
The property of an author or painter in his intellectual creation is absolute until he voluntarily parts therewith. While the public exhibition of a painting or statue where all can see and copy it might amount to a publication, where the exhibition is made subject to reservation of copyright and to restrictions rigidly enforced against copying, it does not amount to a publication.
In a suit brought in replevin under the New York Code to recover infringing copies of the plaintiff's copyrighted article, it is too late to object to the form of remedy on the motion for new trial.
Adams v. New York,192 U. S. 585, and Hale v. Henkel,201 U. S. 43, followed to effect that defendant's rights under the Fourth and Fifth Amendments were not violated by the seizure of infringing copies of copyrighted articles or by the use thereof as evidence.
146 F. 375 affirmed.
This is a writ of error to the Circuit Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit seeking reversal of a judgment affirming the judgment of the United States Circuit Court for the Southern District of New York in favor of the defendant in error, adjudging him to be entitled to the possession of 1196 sheets, each containing a copy of a certain picture called "Chorus," the same representing a company of gentlemen with filled glasses, singing in chorus. The painting was the work of an English artist, W. Dendy Sadler. The defendant in error claimed to be the owner of a copyright taken out under the law of the United States.
The judgment was rendered under authority of § 4965, as amended March 2, 1895. 28 Stat. 965.
In January, 1894, by agreement between the artist and Werckmeister, the defendant in error, it was agreed that the painting should be finished by March 1, and then sent to Werckmeister to be photographed and returned to Sadler in time to
exhibit at the Royal Academy in 1894. The painting was sent to Werckmeister at Berlin, where it was received on March 8, 1894, and was returned to Sadler in London on March 22, 1894. On April 2, 1894, the artist Sadler executed and delivered the following instrument:
"I hereby transfer the copyright in my picture 'Chorus' to the Photographische Gesellschaft, Berlin (The Berlin Photographic Company), for the sum of

I had installed Zimbra 7.1.4 in a CentOS6.2 OS.
All services are running fine.
However, when mail clients (Thunderbird, Outlook, Windows Live => SMTPS) and webmail clients (Firefox, Chrome, IE => HTTPS) try to connect in the server, they always show warning message, because they don't get to check that the server has a reliable certificate. Is there some way to solve this? The certificates were created in installing process, and after I tried to recreate them using the steps here ([SOLVED] SOLVED: Zimbra 6.0.1 stop working if SSL certificate is expired).

Tinnitus Products
Enjoy the soft, soothing sounds of our Tranquil tinnitus sound generators for tinnitus relief.
To achieve tinnitus relief, try a sound generator device from General Hearing Instruments, Inc. These devices produce a soft, soothing noise similar to the sound from a shower head, a fountain or gently falling rain. Our sound therapy products are available in over-the-ear or in-the-ear models and are used for tinnitus relief and hyperacusis management programs. The noise helps reduce the perceived "loudness" of tinnitus. With the loudness of tinnitus reduced, tinnitus becomes less annoying and more manageable. In hyperacusis treatment, the noise is used to "de-sensitize" the central auditory system. Tranquil is a sound generator for those patients that have normal hearing. It is comfortable, cosmetically appealing and does not fill the ear canal (non-occluding). It can be worn for all daily activity and may be worn while sleeping. Combination devices feature both amplification and a sound generator.

Des Plaines Thursday 11.29.12. Highland Park's Lena Munzer (left) looks to pass while guarded by Maine West's Brittany Collins (center) and Alexia Prosperi (right) during their game on Thursday, Nov. 29, 2012, at the school in Des Plaines | Buzz Orr~Sun-T
Highland Park senior Lena Munzer's game is loud and flashy.
Her personality? Not so much.
"Lena never wants to push people too far," junior teammate Elizabeth Logrande said. "She's always willing to tell you what you're doing wrong, but sometimes she's too nice about things. Like I'll make a mistake and she's really calm about it when she should be a little more intense."
As far as criticism goes for the Yale-bound forward, that's essentially where it begins and ends. And when being too nice is considered the only downfall, you know you have a rather special talent — and person — on your hands.
"Lena is an amazing young lady," coach Jolie Bechtel said of the four-year varsity veteran. "She is not only respected by her teammates, but absolutely adored by her teammates. She is one of the nicest kids and one of the most selfless people I've ever met."
But in true Jekyll-and-Hyde fashion, Munzer's magnetic smile and bashful demeanor off the court gives way to a fierce and uncompromising competitor — angry scowl and all — when she steps on it.
She attacks the game of basketball like she's wearing a utility belt. The 5-foot-8 standout dribbles and shoots with the grace of a guard and works the post with frightening power. During the Giants' CSL North matchup with Maine West on Nov. 29, she delivered 30 points and 15 rebounds.
Her tools are vast, and often times the greatest challenge for coach Bechtel is deciding exactly what to do with all that boundless talent.
"I like to put her wherever she's going to be able to do the most for us," Bechtel said. "The thing is, she's extremely smart, as well. She's a coach on the floor out there."
Lost among the sea of points and rebounds she's collected over her career is her passing. It's also her favorite skill.
"I love seeing my teammates work hard and I love seeing them score more than I like seeing myself score," Munzer said. "I think that's what we need this year, to have the attention to come off me a bit and have other people step up and people like Lizzie (Logrande) to hit big shots. The more of a team game it is the better we're going to be this year."
In a world of highlights and spotlights and videos, Munzer is a rare player who, despite her enormous talent and success, prefers to defer the praise and the ball to her trusting teammates.
But to be sure, even if Highland Park wins the conference championship and Munzer is handed the trophy to hoist, she'll probably just pass it off. ~.


text: In his second season in Chestnut Hill, coach Steve Donahue improved the Eagles record from 9-22 to 16-17. No surprise considering two years ago he was basically starting from scratch. His third season should be even better as BC brings back all five starters, including the ACC Freshman of the Year, guard Olivier Hanlan. The recruiting class has no real star power, but Darryl Hicks is an athletic SG from Kentucky who can do exactly what Donahue likes his guards to do: knock down threes. A .500 record in ACC play is definitely possible for the boys from Boston.A Way Too Early ACC Basketball Preview (Tomahawk Nation)

Lallana: Playing for England has not changed me at all (From Basingstoke Gazette)

Lallana: Playing for England has not changed me at all
7:55am Tuesday 4th March 2014 in Sport
ADAM Lallana has shrugged off the controversy he found himself at the centre of regarding referee Mark Clattenburg.
Lallana hit the headlines when he Saints made a complaint over Mark Clattenburg's conduct towards the 25-year-old in January.
The south coast club alleged Clattenburg told Lallana during Saints' game against Everton at the end of December: "You are very different now since you've played for England - you never used to be like this.''
Lallana denies that is the case, but he insists he has no problem with the official, who was cleared of any wrongdoing.
When asked whether becoming an international had changed him, the Saints captain said: "Not at all really, no.
"I've taken lots out of it, training-wise, playing with the best players and it's where you want to be."
Lallana was hurt by the criticism he received following the complaint, but he was at pains to stress it was Saints and not he himself who sent the letter.
"The club made a complaint, not me," he said.
"Mark has refereed us since. I saw him when we exchanged team-sheets before the West Ham game and we were absolutely fine.
"It was blown out of proportion.
"You have to try and take it in your stride as much as you can."

Police Arrest Teacher for Stealing From Students
February 8, 2007
- Tampa Police detectives have arrested a Chamberlain High School Advisor
for stealing money that students raised through volunteer work to pay
for graduation events. Tampa Police were alerted to the actions of the
defendant, Cheryl Foster-Lawrentz by the school when SunCoast bank
notified them of suspicious activity on the account. Professional
Standards Department of Hillsborough County and Tampa Police Detectives
conducted a joint investigation over a one week period. The
investigation revealed that this individual was receiving the payment
checks from the volunteer work of the students and placing the checks in
her own account instead of the schools account. This theft occurred
between 11/05 and 12/06. A total of twenty one checks were diverted,
totaling $9,559.00. At this time there is only a few hundred dollars
left in the defendants account and it has not been determined where or
how the stolen funds was spent. The stolen funds were proceeds that the
school receives through the volunteer efforts at special events at
raymond james stadium.
SUSPECT: Foster-Lawrentz, Cheryl Maria

I disagree with the original Observer review quote that adorns the DVD cover 'The most powerful film ever made in this country'. Even in 1952 this wouldn't have been the case across British cinema and director Carol Reed himself had already made his masterpieces The Third Man and Odd Man Out by this point, but it's still a rollicking and steamy colonial drama.
Trevor Howard is on fine form as a fugitive cad holing up in a remote island village where Ralph Richardson's famous sailor has a trading post, overseen by Robert Morley, whose nose is put right out of joint by the arrival of Howard. Things get worse when he falls for a beautiful native girl, sending already tense relations boiling over.
A decent tale of the undoing of men, of the evils of greed, capitalism, colonialism, wrapped up in a sweltering tale of ego and selfishness. If some of the moments with the native children feel very pre-PC and the short combat scenes naturally stilted by age, the handling of it all as you'd expect from Reed and such a good cast feels fresh, modern and engaging. The ending, rain lashed and savagely downbeat is beautifully rendered. A gem.
So Maurice Sendak passed away and as David so lovingly put it, his work is already a big formative influence on Hospice.
And Friday, Adam Yauch passed away. These are reminders of what the core of Hospice concerns; death and its timing and the importance of living, not merely existing.
This morning I've been listening to the new Richard Hawley album 'Standing On The Sky's Edge' having read about its creation in The Observer. Learning that it was inspired by nature and the passing of one of his friends made me want to hear it and it is wonderful. Shamefully, the first Hawley album I've owned, but then I always say art and artists come to us when we need them.
I can already feel that within it are great inspirations for my writing of Hospice. Tonally, atmospherically, lyrically. Even the album cover conveys much of what I want this piece to feel like in terms of colour and perspective.
So a sad week, but one that reminds us of the beauty of life, and the importance of seizing it. Despite the title, and those themes this is not a story of despair, but one of hope and optimism.

It's ironic that Rolling Stone magazine, after glamorizing Boston Marathon bombing suspect rock star Dzhokhar, has painted a less than flattering picture of our hometown team the New England Patriots. If the allegations in the magazine story concerning Aaron Hernandez and the New England Patriots are true, we have another situation where sports business was put before sportsman-like conduct and the safety of the public.
It's deja vu, just like in the Penn State Coach Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal. People knew, but they looked the other way. Why? Because there was a lot of money at stake.
What did the Patriots know and when did they know it? Hernandez was drafted in the fourth round when his talent was more first or second round caliber. The Pats knew they were getting a bargain, a risky bargain. Again, that's a business decision. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a bad one. Can they still say they were duped?
We need to understand that "The Patriot Way" is first and foremost to entertain fans and make money. They can lose their way on the road to those goals, just like any other business. It happens on Wall Street, Main Street, and in people's personal lives. Every day organizations say, "pay no attention to that man behind the curtain."
It would be nice to think that our team has a code of conduct and a set of business ethics that will not be compromised. Maybe we do, maybe most of the stuff in the Rolling Stone article is untrue. But, even if some of it is true, business was placed before doing the right thing and that is always bad business.

During this lockout shortened NBA season many team around the league have been working with individual health plans and other insurance needs because of all the injuries occurring The Miami Heat have been able to avoid any major injuries all year and they are healthy and ready to make a push for the championship now. The Heat's roster was constructed with the goal of reaching multiple championships and Pat Riley and the rest of the ownership team have invested a large amount of money in players who are dedicated to fulfilling that vision.
Of course, the Heat salaries are enormously top-heavy, with the "Big Three" firmly in place. But how exactly does the Heat's salary situation breakdown? How does the financial future look for the Heat? Follow along for more.
The "Big" Items
According to HoopsHype, the first "big" thing that you'll notice is the Heat's huge salary figure. Indeed, with a total figure above $78 million, they are over the NBA salary cap figure of $58.044 million.
The "Big Three" as expected receive the bulk portion of that figure. They are the big time players, leaders and big-money earners on the Heat. For the current season, LeBron James and Chris Bosh are at $17.545 million, while Dwayne Wade, who took less money to make it all work, is at $17.024 million. They will receive an approximate $1.5 million raise, each, next season.
For those wondering how long the Big Three will stay intact, they all have player options for the 2014-15 and 2015-16 season. They can choose to leave following next (2013-14) season.
Mid-Range Players and Tough Calls
There are some mid-range salaries on the team that are worthy of note. Mike Miller comes in at a hefty $6.2 million, while Shane Battier, Joel Anthony, Udonis Haslem and Mario Chalmers are between $3.2 and $4.0 million.
It's tough to argue that these players are overpaid. As valuable role players, they certainly have a part to play in the team's success. However, it would be nice to see the Heat get a good big man, for the interior presence (rebounding, shot blocking, defense) that they need.
The Heat do have a couple of choices to make. And, in all honesty, it could be a tough decision. Both Mario Chalmers ($4.0) and Norris Cole ($1.19) have a team option for next season. It will be interesting to see how the Heat approach the point guard situation, especially with Steve Nash becoming a free-agent. However, both players are doing quite well and both have the potential to improve.
Heat's Economic Situation
For most teams, the Heat's current numbers would be a major problem. Three huge contracts and a hefty difference between the salary cap and the team's salary – for worse – would be a nightmare. However, it's not in Miami.
With what many consider to be the best team in the league, the Miami Heat are doing fine. Any franchise would accept being over the cap and paying a fine for having arguably the most-talented team in the NBA. Having a superstar in Chris Bosh, along with two of the top five players on the planet is quite an accomplishment after all.
Miami has been responsible with their other spending in the past, the plan to form this championship contending team wasn't born overnight. Coach Spoelstra and Pat Riley have taken pay cuts to make this all happen and unfortunately, some staff members were laid off as well. The tough times the team went through before signing LeBron and Bosh will all be worth it, if the team can win the championship and look to start a new dynasty.

Dracaena fragrans – Did you know it flowers? We get emails regularly asking about the flowering of Dracaena fragrans. The emails go something like this:
I have a Dracaena fragrans – "Corn plant" and have had the plant for 5 years – in some cases more. It is blooming for the first time. I did not know it even bloomed.
- How long will the flowers last?
- Will the plant die?
- Can I cut off the flower stalk?
I must go on record and let you know that I am writing only from experience and cannot give you the full details on the the Dracaena fragrans flowering indoors – it's not the most common event!
Hopefully some of our interiorscapers will write and give us their hints and tips.
As I write this I have a dracaena fragrans massangeana planted outside in the ground and flowering. It is approximately 180 feet from my house and I can smell the intoxicating fragrance every evening.
Background on Dracaena Fragrans
Most of the time you find Dracaena fragrans flowering it will be on very mature plants. Plants usually 6 feet and up.
The flower stalks emerge out of the center of the leaf whorl and will grow to sometimes 3 feet in length arching to the ground.
In the evening the plant gives off a sweet fragrance that is noticeable for hundreds of feet. The fragrance is very strong as some of you have experienced. One person even said that they had to open the office doors to air out the place!!!
Now to the questions:
Will the Plant Die?
No – The plant will continue to grow. The plant will begin by putting out a new head of foliage. The center of the plant – the growing tip – is no longer active after flowering.
A new "head" will emerge out of the center of the foliage next to where the flower stalk was. This is similar to pruning a plant and new growth starts below the cut.
It is also possible that more then one head may emerge. Specimens with branched trunks occur when two heads develop where the old flower stalk was and has matured.
How Long Will the Flower Last?
The fragrance last each evening for approximately 3 to 7 days. It may last longer indoors because it is protected from the elements. After a period of time the flower stalk will eventually wither away.
Can I cut off the Dracaena flower stalk?
Yes, you can cut off the flower stalk. Remember, while the plant is flowering it is putting its energy into the flowers and not into other parts of the plant.
I'd like to hear from the interior people but I think they would recommend cutting off the flower stalks for a couple of reasons.
- The potency of the fragrance indoors can be very strong (especially in commercial settings)
- Pollen may get on the leaves and give a dirty look.
How about you – ever had your Dracaena fragans flower?

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - The Lubbock County District Attorney's office filed a motion Friday morning to dismiss drug charges against a Lubbock High school coach after speaking with Trent Nickerson's attorney.
The case will now be presented to a Lubbock county grand jury who will decide if there is enough evidence to pursue charges against Nickerson. The DA's office canceled the arrest warrant and will present the case in the coming weeks.
Nickerson became the subject of a drug investigation after a fire broke out in his home last Friday.
That is when firefighters found several marijuana plants in the house he shared with roommate, Christopher Scott. According to a police affidavit, Nickerson told police he did not know about the marijuana plants found in another room. Officers did not find drugs in his room or his car.
Meanwhile, Lubbock ISD says Nickerson will stay on paid administrative leave while the investigation continues.
Nickerson's roommate, Christopher Scott, 24, was arrested and faces drug possession charges. He bonded out of jail.
KCBD NewsChannel 11 contacted a number for Nickerson and were referred to his attorney and have not heard back from him yet.

A Lubbock teen is held on $300,000 bond, accused of a string of burglaries that started last summer. The Lubbock District Attorney's office says 18-year-old Miguel Tijerina admitted to more than 60 robberies and has been linked to about 55. Most of the burglaries took place in the Tech Terrace area of town.
The rash of robberies has frightened many a resident in Tech Terrace. Tijerina Allegedly went into homes in broad daylight, taking TV's, computers, Ipod's... and leaving dozens of residents feeling violated. Hallie Durham says, "I just peeked in and saw our whole house had been ran-sacked and everything was gone."
|Crime Prevention Tips for You and Your Home
In January, Tijerina allegedly entered Hallie and Andrew Durham's Tech Terrace home, rifled through all the fraternal twins' belongings, and their roommate's, took what he wanted and locked the door chain inside." Hallie recalls, "I couldn't get in the house so that really scared me." Her brother Andrew says it was a, "really weird feeling. I was just angry. My roommate and I were extremely angry."
The burglar entered through the backyard, past the neighborhood watch sign, and knocked the back door in sometime between 9 a.m. and noon. Baxter, the family dog, was even home at the time. Blocks away, Border Collie Axle was guarding Travis Barber's home, but Tijerina allegedly struck his home too. Barber says, "I came home at six and came in and all the cushions on the couch were turned up and off the couch, so I immediately knew someone was here."
This time the back fence was locked, but the burglar jumped it, entered through a back window and shimmied through a small computer desk shelf. Barber recalls, "I was comfortable here for three months and everything was locked up tight and I felt comfortable until that day."
Barber, and Hallie and Andrew know of several neighbors who have either been robbed or spotted thieves in their yards recently. They hope with Miguel Tijerina in police custody, their neighborhood will be a little safer. Andrew says, "I think it's great. I hope he's behind bars for a while."
The folks in Tech Terrace may be able to rest a little easier, but police remind everyone to always take precautions. A simple gate lock can help deter a thief. Although it didn't work for the Durham's or Barber, having a dog in the backyard sometimes deters thieves. Also, install an alarm system and advertise it with signs and install motion sensored outdoor lighting.
Inside the house, it's always a good idea to have a solid four inch dead bolt and keep an inventory of all your belongings, including brands, models and serial numbers.

Atlantic Canada's representatives in the men's section of the Canadian Senior Curling Championships swept their opponent's in opening round action in Summerside, PEI.
George Hilderman and his teammates from Whitehorse found out the hard way why Team Alberta (Armitage) is alone in first place. Armitage and his cohorts from Red Deer put there unblemished record on the line and unblemished it will stay through to round #13. The final score was 9-5!
As the subject line indicates, this was the longest day for all concerned at the 2012 Canadian Senior Curling Championships presented by Raymond James. Tonight's draw #10 was the fourth of the day and there were some key match ups on the ice at the Abbotsford Recreation Centre.

You can say the Flacco INT was a momentum killer. You can say Lee Evans let the Raven's SB bid slip right through his hands. You can even say that the Cundiff FG gaffe was what did the Ravens in, but the truth of the matter is yesterday's game came down to two things: poor offensive play calling at crucial moments in the game, and the "Brady Rule." QB Joe Flacco has been the topic of discussion as to him being a franchise QB or whether or not he has what it takes to take the Ravens to the next level. Honestly, I've seen enough of "Joe Cool" to come to the conclusion that whatever short comings his critics may have of him, he's not the reason for any failures the Ravens have had in the post season, including yesterday's game. In his defense, I think the play calling deserves more criticism than he does. With the addition of Evans, Smith and Dickson on offense this was the year the Ravens were supposed to take off. Yet all year we have seen play calling at crucial times of the game that have stubbed the Ravens in games against teams they've lost against when they should have won easily (See Seattle, Tennessee, and Jacksonville). The offense that's currently installed does not maximize the attributes of Flacco. It does not take advantage of his strengths. If there is a flaw to pick on with Joe, it's the fact that he doesn't throw intermediate passes very well. I think this is something he can improve over the offseason but nevertheless the thing that needs to be improved the most heading into next season is the offensive system that's currently in place.
The second thing that I have a bone to pick about is centered on one player. Tom Brady. In all the years I have watched the game of football, I've never seen rules being changed to protect one player the way I have with Brady. Ever since his season ending injury in 08, we've seen the NFL take steps to enforce protecting the QB by calling penalties for "hitting the QB after the ball is gone." We've seen flags thrown for "hitting the QB too hard." All of this started the year following Brady's injury. I watched the Ravens Pats game yesterday and was appalled by the countless no calls for holding against Pats. Their line did everything and all but tackled Ravens defenders all game long while Brady received "praise" for the team's success against the Raven's defense (Gag). The Pats are without a doubt the most overrated team in the league. When you have comments coming out from other NFL teams (Eagles, Rams, Panthers, and Steelers) who who've played against the Pats and are all saying the same things about the favoritism that Brady gets, at some point you have address the possibility of what is being questioned. Judging by the majority of the posts throughout the NFL "blogmosphere," I don't think I stand alone in this assessment. The East coast media loves to brag on how "great" Tom Brady is. If he's so "great" let him prove it on the field without help from the officials. In last weeks interview on ESPN with Skip Bayless, Suggs said it best: "We all know you can't (touch) certain players in the league." Brady is one of them. http://search.espn.go.com/suggs-vs-skip-bayless/
With all of that being said, I hope that this year's SB will receive the lowest rating it ever has in years. I won't be watching it to do my part in protesting it's illegitimacy and hope a lot of people follow suite in what I hope will send a message to the league that as fans we want to see the best teams win, and not the one's that have the biggest stars.

In case you haven't noticed, we are right in the thick of festival season. Venice is nearing the finish line, Telluride came and went over the weekend, TIFF kicks off on Thursday and festivities in Deauville are now in full swing. That last festival, dedicated to American cinema (ie. getting Hollywood stars over to France to walk the red carpet) boasts a lineup that ranges from the blatantly commerical ("The Lion King") to actually premiering some new, independent movies. And so, model-turned-actress Famke Janssen will show off her directorial debut "Bringing Up Bobby" (not be confused with the direct-to-video Christian comedy) at the festival today and judging by the first trailer, if anything, this thing is wacky as hell.
Starring Milla Jovovich, Marcia Cross and Bill Pullman, the film sounds like a riff on "Paper Moon" and centers on Olive, a European con artist (Jovovich) and her son (Spencer List) who make their way on the road until Olive's criminal past comes back to bite her where it hurts. If there is one word to describe the tone of the film from the trailer it would be this: relentless. Janssen doesn't seem to know how to deliver laughs with subtlety so this thing hammers its quirkiness into submission, taking whatever laughs it has with it. Oh, but then in the last little bit we get to see some of the heartstrings it's going to try and pull.
There is probably a good reason why this one skipped TIFF and this trailer might be full evidence of that. No distributors are on board yet, but get a taste of it for yourself below along with the official synopsis and another pic from the film. [via ToutLeCine]
Olive and her ten-year-old son Bobby settle in Oklahoma in an effort to escape her past and build a better future. Olive and Bobby blithely charm their way from one adventure to another until Olive's criminal past catches up with her. Consequently, she must make a choice: continue with a life of crime or leave the person she loves most in an effort to give Bobby a proper chance in life.

Hasn't this woman been an actress for 20 years or so. Seems like a cheap shot to label her a "model-turned-actress". What were you 20 years ago, a paperboy? " Paperboy-turned-internet movie critic" Kevin Jagernauth says "I didn't see this movie but....."
And by the way, these days all trailers are cut to look fast paced. If they made trailers for Persona or Hiroshima Mon Amour they would leave you with the impression that both films were "relentless" fast-paced action flicks with a few brief moments of pathos thrown in. I sure the film company cut the trailer. Don't be a hater, till you see the film.

Just as a quick pregame post, I thought I would ask everyone a couple of questions based on how they think this game will turn out. There should be plenty of great defensive plays in this game, as neither team is running to most dynamic of offenses and both feature above average defenses, to say the least.
So depending on who gets the ball first, what do you think happens on the first drive? Does the team that received first get a touchdown on their opening drive? What will the first play of the game be? A run or a pass?
Which team will end up scoring first and who will be the one to put points on the board?
Answer the questions in the comments section and feel free to add any other input you'd like. Let's get pumped for the game!

By PAUL DAVENPORT
Associated Press
PHOENIX (AP) - Arizona voters two years ago overwhelmingly approved a temporary sales tax increase, but the political landscape is significantly different for a new proposal on this year's ballot.
The 2010 increase is set to expire in mid-2013. Voters on Nov. 6 will decide whether to replace it with a permanent tax increase of the same size - one penny on the dollar.
As in 2010, education groups and other supporters of the current initiative proposal focus on benefits for schools and universities.
However, Gov. Jan Brewer and the Arizona Chamber of Commerce and Industry are among some backers of the 2010 increase who oppose this year's Proposition 204.
And unlike 2010 when supporters outspent opponents by roughly 25 to 1, the sides' war chests this time are relatively evenly matched.

Diff'rent Strokes star Gary Coleman dies
- From: NewsCore
- May 29, 2010
FORMER child actor Gary Coleman has died in hospital at the age of 42.
Coleman, who rose to fame as the wise-cracking Arnold Jackson on the American sitcom Diff'rent Strokes, had been in coma after suffering a head injury in a fall.
He died at the Utah Valley Regional Medical Centre in Provo where he was taken on Wednesday from his home in Santaquin, about 55 miles south of Salt Lake City.
Manager John Alcantar said Coleman had suffered a brain haemorrhage.
The actor is survived by his wife, Shannon Price, whom he met on the set of the movie Church Ball and married in 2007.
Coleman's life was marked by one huge success - the popularity of Diff'rent Strokes, which ran from 1978-86 and made his character's catchphrase "What'choo talkin' bout, Willis?" famous.
But he was never able to duplicate his childhood success as an adult actor and continuing medical problems, including congenital kidney disease that resulted in two kidney transplants, and heart surgery complicated by pneumonia last fall, made health an ongoing struggle.
Most recently, he suffered two seizures earlier this year, one on the set of the CBS television series The Insider.
Legal problems and arrests also beset the diminutive (4 feet 8 inches, by one estimate) actor, who in January was arrested for failing to appear in court on a domestic violence warrant.
He eventually pleaded guilty to misdemeanor criminal mischief.
Coleman had regularly courted controversy. He famously sued his parents for allegedly misappropriating money he earned from the show.
While he earned up to $US100,000 per episode of the show he was left with up to only a quarter of that after his parents, lawyers and advisors took a share.
Despite being awarded $US1.3 million in 1993 he filed for bankruptcy in 1999.
Coleman pleaded guilty earlier this year on charges relating to a 2009 domestic assault, follow up hearings in this case have recently been delayed due to Coleman's ill health.
In 1998 he was charged with punching a woman.
Sitcom curse
He once observed: "If I could give you fame for one day, you'd probably want to give it back to me in five minutes".
It was a sobering insight into the psyche of the actor whose name had become synonymous with the phrase "former child star".
Accounts of his adult exploits were rarely flattering: he was once forced to work as a security guard to pay the bills.
His on-screen brother, meanwhile, was making headlines of his own. Todd Bridges, who played Willis Jackson, struggled with a cocaine addiction for several years before he was arrested and tried for the attempted murder of a Los Angeles drug dealer.
Bridges pleaded not guilty to the charges, and was represented by the high-profile defence attorney Johnnie Cochrane, who portrayed Bridges as someone who had been exploited by the entertainment industry, and was now being unfairly framed. Bridges was acquitted of all charges.
Despite this descent into drug use and violence, of the three stars, it was Diffr'nt Strokes co-star Dana Plato who did most to destroy her wholesome image.
She, too, had several run-ins with the law, stealing $160 from a video store and forging a prescription for 1000 Valiums. She also posed for Playboy and appeared in a soft-porn video, Different Strokes: The Story of Jack and Jill, which cashed in on her reputation and lampooned her past.
Just 18 months ago Coleman was asked about his response to talk of "the tragedies" that had afflicted his castmates.
His response was blunt: "Their problems are not my problems. I hate it when people make their problems my problems. They do whatever the hell they want. If they want to screw up their lives, that's their business."
Where are they now?
Kimberly Drummond (Dana Plato)
Plato committed suicide in May 1999, aged 34. After Diff'rent Strokes she posed nude for Playboy but drug addiction and financial trouble led to her conviction for armed robbery in 1991. Her son Tyler Lambert committed suicide on May 6 this year, almost exactly 11 years to the day after his mother's death.
Willis Jackson (Todd Bridges)
The 45-year-old successfully battled a cocaine addiction and a murder charge in the 1980s before trying his hand at celebrity boxing, celebrity Fear Factor and celebrity championship wrestling (using the persona "Mr Not So Perfect"). Starred last year in Z-grade See Dick Run about a conman who loses his penis.
Mr Drummond (Conrad Bain)
The 87-year-old has been out of the public eye since the mid-1990s and lives in Los Angeles with wife of 65 years Monica Sloan.

Thomasville Trail to Spur Redevelopment, Connectivity
September 7, 2011
Thomasviille's new trail plan brings together transportation, recreation, redevelopment and the city's historic neighborhoods anddowntown. The multi-use trail plan makes parks a focus of the neighborhoods.
Often the impetus for redeveloping a neighborhood comes from the residents who already live there. That's the story behind's Thomasville's ambitious plan to install a trail that connects its historic neighborhoods to its parks and to the city's downtown.
"When I started with the city about three years ago, many residents in the Victoria Place community came and asked me what could be done about the infrastructure and the environmental blight in the area," said Thomasville City Planner Lee Chastain, who manages the trail project. "The neighborhood had been isolated from the rest of the community because of the environmental blight. They wanted to see something that would clean up natural blight, encourage area residents to go downtown and encourage visitors to venture across the rail road tracks."
Subsequently, a group was formed to address the infrastructure, housing, gateways, signage, recreational opportunities and commercial development in the neighborhood. A year later, the Victoria Place Urban Redevelopment Plan was adopted.
Meanwhile city officials were thinking about its aging population.
"An aging population needs certain things so we starting brainstorming with the community about what the city should be providing to its population," said City Manager Steve Sykes. "Access to parks and walking trails was one of the provisions mentioned."
City officials soon recognized the transferability of the Victoria Place plan to other historic neighborhoods in the city.
"We have completed the multi-use trail master plan (officially titled the Thomasville Community Landmarks Trail – Master Plan and Recreational Amenity Analysis)," Chastain said. "The plan is to build a $10 million, 14-mile loop for the city in five separate phases."
The 10-foot wide trail will wind through numerous historic areas of Thomasville. "Each phase of the trail goes through a historic district and connects it with a park," Chastain explained.
The city worked with consultants and the community to craft a master plan that identifies what historic areas need redevelopment and the specific infrastructure improvements that are required to bring about that redevelopment.
"It identifies where new or refurbished housing is needed, what roads need to be resurfaced and where street lights may need to be added," Chastain said. "We hope to leverage the public investment in the infrastructure to attract private investment for the new housing and commercial element."
The trail master plan calls for pedestrian friendly amenities along the trail including benches, garbage receptacles, call boxes, curb ramps and landscape buffers.
The trail will also be an economic driver in underdeveloped areas of the city. The city aligned the trail so that it will spur investment in many areas of the community that hadn't seen investment in a long time.
"Where the trail connects a park, we assessed the service area of the park," Chastain said. "Some of the things we looked at in our assessment were the park's classification, developable lands, the zoning of those developable lands, the demographics of the district and the quality of infrastructure. The intent is to use our redevelopment plans to focus on our parks so the parks become the focus of our neighborhoods."
The city has received around $300,000 from the Department of Transportation to fund phase one of the trail, which will extend from downtown to the redeveloped Victoria Place neighborhood to the Paradise Park area. Preliminary engineering is already underway; construction is anticipated to start sometime next year.
City officials are excited about a separate plan to install a trailhead where the trail converges downtown. "At the trailhead we will have a 900-seat outdoor amphitheater and an interactive splash ground water fountain," Chastain said. "It will become a huge focal point for downtown activities."
While redevelopment and recreation are important targets of the master plan, improving transportation access is also a goal.
"Thomasville is a retirement community," Chastain pointed out. "In order to address the needs of an aging population we need to begin implementing projects that can provide for an alternative means of transportation. In addition to an aging population we also have a fairly large number of children who need a safe route from their neighborhoods to school and to recreational amenities. By having an off-road, paved trail system to be utilized by pedestrians and cyclists, we can improve safety for both the elderly and the young."
Chastain also sees the new trail complimenting Thomas County's plans for a fixed route bus system. Currently, the Thomas County Area Transit Service provides public transportation only on request and requires a 24-hour notification period.
"Where the trail crosses over public streets, it will create opportunities for bus stops," Chastain said. "The bus system can intermingle with the pedestrian system and really create a robust network."
If the city had all the necessary funding, the 14-mile trail could be constructed in a year, Chastain said. As the city doesn't have all the funding it needs it is actively pursuing funds from a variety of state and federal sources.
"We are looking at every program that is out there that could potentially provide funding," Chastain said. "We anticipate submitting a T.I.G.E. R. (Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery) grant application under the federal program; we are also looking at the Department of Natural Resources, Community Development Block Grants and any of the Department of Community Affairs programs."
City Manager Sykes said the completed master plan will improve Thomasville's quality of life—a longtime priority for the city council.
According to Sykes, the city annually budgets for quality of life projects including funding matching grants for downtown property owners who want to improve their building facades and park improvements.
"Whether it is the park we keep maintained, implementing a walk or bike trail or helping improve the curb appeal of downtown, the city council has committed and continues to commit to providing a good quality of life," Sykes said, "and we think that is good for the residents who live here and for those who are considering relocating to our community."

Smallcakes in Albany welcomed Phillip Phillips home with a sweet treat ahead of a benefit concert.
June 14, 2004
(Toccoa-AP) -- Georgia's oldest World War One vet has died. Henry Roy Tucker, originally from Alapaha in Berrien County, died Saturday at 107.
He fought with the U. S. Army in Luxembourg, France and Germany during World War I. He was awarded France's highest honor -- the Legion of Honor -- in 1999 for work he had done nearly 81 years before.
Tucker stayed in Germany after the war ended to serve in the occupying army for an additional ten months before coming back to the United States. Tucker settled in Tifton when he returned to the United States and worked as the city's water meter reader. He was the city's only reader and credited all the walking he did on the job for his good health.
Family members also said Tucker was independent long after he turned 100, living by himself at home until last November, when he moved to an assisted living home in Toccoa.
On May ninth this year, his 107th birthday, the Georgia General Assembly acknowledged his achievements in a proclamation read before the assembly and presented it to him.

Even though we're in the middle of October, it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas now that volunteers have started to change Hartford's Goodwin Park into a winter wonderland.
Those volunteers were busy making sure that when it comes time to flip the switch, the Holiday Light Fantasia will shine bright.
Thy Le said she's never been to the Holiday Light Fantasia, but this year she might. After all, she'll be able to see all her hard work pay off.
"It's good," she said. "I like helping out. It's good for us to get out of the office.
Le and about 50 of her co-workers at United Healthcare spent the day at the park volunteering. And before the largest Christmas display in the state comes to life, the Channel 3 Kids Camp needs to make sure every bulb is ready to burn bright.
In all, there's more than 1 million bulbs spread out over two miles inside Goodwin Park.
"Because of the damage that occurred from weather year to year, from storage year to year, it takes a long time to replace those bulbs and make sure the displays are up and beautiful, and everyone who comes through gets their money worth," Joan Gurski, of the Channel 3 Kids Camp said.
The camp started to replace the bulbs four weeks ago, but it's a long process. So the fact that they have the volunteers here to do the work makes a huge difference.
"Having large groups of volunteers, we can get so much done in a day which would typically take our small work crew a full week to get done, so it really helps us get ready for the event," Gurski said.
Thursday it was United Healthcare. Next week the volunteers will come from Travelers and later UPS.
The lights, which will run every night from Nov. 23 to Jan. 6 is the camp's biggest money maker, bringing in more than $300,000.

4-star: 0

13.0 oz per shoe
Really comfortable and good support, but minor quality…
Source: bought it new
Really comfortable and good support, but minor quality issues and hardly any treads
- Comfortable
- No break in needed
- Excellent lacing system
- Very minimal treads
- Small quality failure after few months
After reading other reviews on these claiming them to run small, I ordered a half size up from my regular 11. They are a great fit, but I have a feeling my regular size would have worked too since there's a little extra room with the 11 1/2 for me.
Anyway, their best feature: I love the laces! You don't tie them but instead use a sliding plastic clip to tighten andloosen them. The clip holds great and the entire lace system is really easy to adjust. These were really comfortable out of the box and felt great running from the get go. They look good with a classy, fairly understated style.
Not so enamored with the treads on these as they are very shallow (probably 1/8th-1/4 of an inch thick) and the bottoms of the soles are nearly flat as a result of the minimalistic treads. I would prefer a sole with a bit more of an aggressive tread pattern personally. The soles are, however, good and grippy.
Quality seemed good initially but one of the straps that holds the laces broke after about 4 or 5 months. They still work with the broken lace strap, but I expected better.
Overall a more-good-than-bad shoe that wins out on the excellent lace system and comfort.

By Billy Graham • October 22, 2007 • Topics: Family, Parenting
I'm sorry for your husband's unyielding attitude; even if he has no regard for God or the church, he still should be willing to go for the sake of his family. A parent may not be particularly interested in soccer or basketball, but that shouldn't keep them from attending their children's games. Perhaps you (or your children) can persuade him to reconsider.
The best approach is for you (and your husband) to be as positive as possible with your children, encouraging them and letting them know you are proud they've been selected to be in the Christmas play. At the same time, remind them gently that their father chooses not to go to church, and tell them honestly that he won't be going on this occasion either.
Don't argue about it in front of them, however, and don't go into the reasons why your husband dislikes church. In time, they'll probably want to explore this, but right now they're too young, and you need to do all you can to encourage respect for their father. The Bible tells children to "Honor your father and your mother, as the Lord your God has commanded you" (Deuteronomy 5:16).
The most important thing you can do, however, is to pray for your husband, and ask God to help you be an example to him of Christ's love and joy. Plan special activities for your family also that will point to the true meaning of Christmas: the coming of Jesus Christ into the world for our salvation.

A Tennessee Valley teen wants to help other young girls in the area.
Victoria Jones is in the process of collecting clothes for her annual pre-teen clothing drive. It is sponsored by her organization, Girl Naturale.
Jones and her sister Olivia created the event, which allows girls to go shopping for free in a boutique-like setting.
Victoria said Girls, Inc., the Inner City Learning Center, and the Harvest Youth Club are participating in this year's event.
"We want to impact girls and give them the confidence they feel that they need going back to school," Victoria said. "We want to accommodate girls with free clothes, trendy clothes. We're sorting right now, and we only give the best of the best."
Last year, Victoria and Girl Naturale provided free clothing to 35 girls. This year, with your help, they hope to help 100. If you would like to participate, you can drop off clothes at Sparkman High School, where there will be a donation box provided.
The Girl Naturale Teen Boutique will be held at Sparkman High July 18 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Victoria said she hopes to rally other local teens to join her cause. For more information on how to donate or volunteer, visit Girl Naturale's Facebook page. You can also call (256) 468-9837 or email.
