"Fail Safe" (1964)
The Cold War and threat of nuclear extinction was on the minds of politicians and filmmakers alike in the late '50s and early '60s, but arguably this crisis reached its cinema fever pitch in 1964. Earlier in the year, Stanley Kubrick presciently turned the burgeoning genre on its head with the highly satirical and biting "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb," which is perhaps why the dead-serious "Fail Safe" is less well known, and was less well regarded when it arrived in theaters 10 months later (if you didn't know better, you'd assume 'Strangelove' is almost a spoof as they are about the exact same subject with some uncanny and incredibly similar scenes and archetypes though essentially made at the same time). Though somber and terrifyingly real -- the movie almost plays out like a suspenseful horror -- "Fail Safe" is not the humorless version of Kubrick's masterpiece. It is in fact, a masterpiece in of its own kind. A gripping, nail-biting and intense portrait of the spiraling-out-of-control arms race -- and it's a wonder this picture's disturbing drama didn't come to pass in our history. Henry Fonda plays the earnest and compassionate leader of the United States, Walter Matthau plays a ruthless scientist bound by stats and cold logic, and the picture also contains excellent performances by Dan O'Herlihy, Frank Overton and Edward Binns, plus early appearances by Dom DeLuise, Larry Hagman and Fritz Weaver. Need a foolproof nuclear deterrent? Just watch "Fail Safe," one of the best wartime cautionary tales (nuclear or otherwise) ever made. [A+]
"The Hill" (1965)
Set in a North African British "glasshouse" during World War II (the name of an English military detention center) in the middle of the baking hot Libyan desert, Lumet's dusty and sun-bleached 1965 war film centers on the injustices of war and its outdated rules by focusing on five new soldiers imprisoned and being punished for a litany of infractions such as going AWOL, stealing booze and in one special case, defying direct orders and assaulting his commanding officer. The idea is the dogs of war must be beaten and broken, and spirits and wills are almost crushed in this gritty 1965 military prison picture. But one incorrigible soldier, Sean Connery -- who took this detour, the first of five team-ups with Lumet, in the middle of his Bond run between "Goldfinger" and "Thunderball," much to the chagrin of most critics -- doesn't make it easier for his tyrannical, near blood-thirsty superiors, himself, or his fellow inmates, one of them being the late, great Ossie Davis. Connery's insubordination means his exhausted and parched outfit is humiliated, demeaned and punished to the edges of human limits by his barbaric staff sergeants (British character actors Ian Hendry and Harry Andrews play the monsters of discipline). One man dies during the abuse which sets off a chain of rebellion and makes Connery even more intractable. While "The Hill" is very much a message film and wears its morality on its sleeves, it is nevertheless, a highly engaging and underrated work in the Lumet body. The crushing, tragic ending and its bitter irony make it all the more striking. [B+]
"The Deadly Affair" (1966)
Later this year will finally see John Le Carre's best-known character, the anti-Bond spy-catcher George Smiley, reach the big screen, played by Gary Oldman in Tomas Alfredson's much-anticipated version of "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy." But Smiley's actually been the central character in a film before -- sort of. Le Carre's first book, "Call for the Dead," was adapted by Lumet in 1966 into "The Deadly Affair" as a vehicle for James Mason, and, while the character has been renamed Charles Dobb, it's Smiley in all but name. While Lumet and writer Paul Dehn may take some liberties with the story, it's very faithful to Le Carre in spirit, and Mason is particularly good in the lead -- it's arguably one of his best screen performances. The cast around him, particularly Maximilian Schell as the colleague sleeping with Dobbs' wife, are equally good. It's a neat little spy thriller -- probably not action-packed enough for contemporary audiences, but mostly terrific, and yet another film from this era of Lumet's work that deserves reappraisal. [B-]
"The Sea Gull" (1968)
For the most part, Lumet's theatrical background stood him in good stead in the film world, with a number of his best early films being derived from stage hits. The major exception is "The Sea Gull," a mostly disastrous take on Anton Chekhov's great play (a play that, in this writer's opinion, is among the very best ever). Lumet assembled an impressive cast, led by James Mason, Vanessa Redgrave, David Warner, Denholm Elliot and the great French star Simone Signoret, and shot on a lush Swedish location, but seems to have something of a tin ear for Chekhov. The writer always described the play as a comedy, and the very best productions have always been the ones which play it as such, but Lumet's cast seem overwhelmed by tragedy, as doom-laden as Rod Steiger's protagonist in "The Pawnbroker." It's oddly taste-free, for a man who made so many great choices: Gerry Fisher's softly pastoral photography is misjudged, making the film pretty at the expense of truth, while the famous ending is entirely botched by the director's decision to cut away to Konstantin's body. Signoret and Redgrave both seem a little miscast, although Warner and Elliott in particular are superb. One for Chekhov completists only, really. [D+]
"The Anderson Tapes" (1971)
Sean Connery always had something of a reputation as an actor who would have a tempestuous relationship with directors, and even early on would occasionally phone in a performance, but he always had a top relationship with Lumet, working with the helmer on five separate occasions, so it was no surprise that, when he wanted to prove his leading man chops outside of the Bond franchise, he went to Lumet and to "The Anderson Tapes." A fiendishly complex thriller with some neat, more-relevant-than-ever commentary on the surveillance society on the side, it involves the actor as a career burglar coerced into pulling off a heist for the Mob without the knowledge that the building's under surveillance from a number of competing sources. Connery more than proved he could carry a movie away from 007, and the film remains pretty enjoyable, even if it's an uneasy blend of the kind of gritty crime picture that Lumet would make his stock-in-trade, and the lighter caper flick so popular at the time. Bonus points for the first screen appearance of Christopher Walken and for the score, the second collaboration with jazz legend Quincy Jones, and, while not as ambitious as his work on "The Pawnbroker," it's still a classic.

Disagree with notes on "Sea Gull." Simone Signoret is miscast, but Vanessa Redgrave and James Mason are the best Nina and Treplev I've seen, Warner is terrific in a nearly impossible part, and the supporting cast is very strong.

I realize that the reviewer's intention was not to generate MORE interest in "The Morning After" ... but on that premise alone, I just upped it to #1 on my Netflix Queue.

Ha, I will Chris. But when it comes to 80s-era cinema, I just can't get enough vaseline-lensed dinner dates and young Jeff Bridges-es -- so I have a feeling I'mgonnaloveit.

Awesome writeup! I love it. Lumet was one of my first big inspirations to become a filmmaker, and this is a fitting, beefy tribute to a man with a beefy body of work.

Extraordinary -- a world-class talent! Don Heckman, jazz critic for the Los Angeles Times, calls her. And it's no wonder. She has a magnetic stage presence. Wherever she performs - domestically, or in Europe, Japan, Australia, Canada -- it's the same story. She's been such a hit at London's famed Ronnie Scott's Club (where she has been a regular for the last eight years) that the owner, Pete King, asked Jackie to appear on Ronnie Scott's own prestigious Jazz House label and the London Evening Standard called her one of the finest singers to perform at Ronnie's since Shirley Horn. Among the many jazz greats Jackie has sung, recorded, or toured with are: Clark Terry (at the Monterey Jazz Festival), Toots Thielemans, Barry Harris, Cyrus Chestnut, Terry Gibbs, Buddy DeFranco, Red Holloway, Eric Alexander, Jeremy Pelt, Ernie Watts, Roy McCurdy, George Gaffney, Amina Figarova, Mike Wofford, Larry Vuckovich, Jon Mayer, and Jon Hendricks - just a few of the legends with whom she has shared the stage, and who sing her praises as well....

The nice looking crack to the right is a variation called "Elk Scat" done sometime in the late 80's or a little later. It was reached by a pendulum, maybe off the bolt at the top of pitch 3, or lower from the belay of pitch 2

GM Phil Emery didn't waste time enacting his right to begin overhauling the Chicago Bears from top to bottom after they once again watched other teams in the playoffs. He discarded head coach Lovie Smith after a 10-6 record but a second-straight year out of the postseason. Established veterans like Brian Urlacher were dismissed for reasons ranging from age to health. Free agents were brought in to bolster the roster with some. Draft picks were made to learn under them. New coaches were hired to teach and develop them into pros. So what, in simple terms, has the Bears head man done for 2013? Here's a look at the defensive outlook.
A lot of fans, media and probably front office members hoped Chicago could keep defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli at Halas Hall. His defense was 5th in the league last season, ranking 1st in takeaways, 3rd in points allowed and 8th in both running yards and passing yards allowed. Why would anybody want that kind of production to stop? Sadly Marinelli stayed loyal to his good friend Smith and chose to punch out, leaving Emery with the tall task of replacing him. To do say he knew he needed somebody with experience and credibility. Who he got was Mel Tucker. This hiring surprised some since the Bears were bringing in a man from a team that ranked dead last in defense in 2012. However, Emery is never one to shy away from talent when he sees it. Tucker is a typical embodiment of what the Chicago GM likes. He's versatile, aggressive and experienced. As a former NFL defensive back he has experienced the game up close. The fact he got a chance to learn under renowned coach Romeo Crennel is an added bonus. If that weren't enough he also spent time with college kingpin Nick Saban at both Michigan State and LSU. He has seen defensive greatness first hand. What has held him back, according to most experts is simply never having enough talent to work with.
Jon Hoke is one of two holdovers from the Smith era, having been in Chicago since 2009. As the defensive backs coach he has had success turning Charles Tillman and Tim Jennings into Pro Bowlers, not to mention making safety Chris Harris an All-Pro back in 2010.
Defensive line coach Mike Phair is the other Smith disciple. Having learned from one of the best line teachers in Marinelli, Phair helped the Bears front four notch 37 of the teams 41 sacks in 2012.
Tim Tibesar takes over as linebackers coach, bringing success with him both from the college level and up in Canada.
All in all it is a much younger group than last season and figures to bring more energy to a veteran defense.
What kind of defense has Phil Emery put together. The one word that keeps coming up is speed. Every fan already knows about Julius Peppers, Lance Briggs, Jennings and Tillman. The real questions lay with newcomers like D.J. Williams, James Anderson, Jon Bostic, Khaseem Greene and Cornellius Washington. To understand what they bring to the defense, one must first recall what the Lovie Smith units were about. In simple terms, they were about patience, pursuit and pressure. If they played a Cover-2 based scheme that forced the opponent to work down the field in chunks, sooner or later they would make a mistake, often through turnovers. It was a work of art for a long time, but not without weaknesses.
One thing that became clear at least the past few seasons was the Chicago linebackers were not known for their ability to blitz. Urlacher and Briggs did their best work plugging holes and tackling ball carriers while playing consistent coverage. By the look of things Emery has changed that. One very interesting similarity between Bostic and Greene when they came in was they worked well when asked to rush the quarterback. Bostic had 8.5 sacks in three seasons as a middle linebacker while Greene showcased that ability solely in 2012 with six. Much of that is attributed to their speed. Given how much production Chicago got from the defensive line alone last year, it's hard to imagine what could happen if opposing quarterbacks have to start worrying about the linebackers too. Then you throw in a physical specimen like Cornellius Washington who will takeover as situational pass rusher and suddenly the Bears have speed and athleticism all over the field, in turn granting Tucker and the coaches a green light to get creative.
There is no way to tell if the Chicago Bears defense will play better in 2013. They will have the same scheme and terminology in place, but a lot of the success will fall on how Mel Tucker and his staff call games without Brian Urlacher relaying the checks. If anything is clear about the unit though, it is younger, faster and more athletic than years past. That is something build on.

Great article about Josh Smith at Yahoo in the basketball section:
UCLA's roster lists Smith at 305 pounds, and no one at UCLA will say whether that measurement was recorded before Smith had reached the peak of his weight loss.
Whatever the case, the noticeably-leaner Smith has an extra bounce in his step. It certainly didn't come easily.
UCLA's dietician devised a meal schedule that Smith said he adhered to for the entire summer. Dinner in the Bruins dining hall often consisted of two chicken sandwiches along with rice and fruit. If Smith was still hungry, he ate additional apples, oranges and bananas "instead of sucking down extra cheeseburgers." Much like that pizza from B.J. 's, Smith said those kinds of foods hardly appeal to him anymore.
"He's dedicated himself," Howland said. "He's changed his lifestyle."
He's going to be difference maker this season. With the addition of Tyler Lamb and Lazeric Jones UCLA is going to roll over the Pac-10. I hope they will make everyone forget what happen last year. This season should be a great one. UCLA needs to play like champions. UCLA is the greatest college program in the country. They need to never forget that.

Served in a pint glass - not sure about that. But looking at this beer this doesn't even look like a Saison. Clear light caramel brown on color. Appears to have been filtered - odd for a saison. Little head. No retention. No lacing. Aroma is sort of Saison-like. Sweet, like caramel apple with yeasty esters, but oddly no yeast. A little band aid. Taste is not good. This isn't a Saison. Mildly sweet with notes of caramel, apple and pear. Fruity, but inappropriately fruity. Medium bodied. Slick. Medium carbonation. Low bitterness.
This isn't a very good beer. It's as if the brewers took a generic pale ale recipe and used a Saison yeast and then hoped for the best.

This is a question a coworker and I were wondering the other day. Which Blue Jay has played for the most teams as a Blue Jay?
With all the Blue Jays affiliates named after the big club it's not uncommon for players to have played for a few different Blue Jays teams on his way to the big club. I know Travis Snider, Joel Carreno and Henderson Alvarez have played for 4 each (Pulaski, GCL, Dunedin, Toronto and DSL, GCL, Dunedin and Toronto) but has anyone ever played for 5? or 6?

Alaska Air Group Plans Two-for-one Stock Split
June 12--Alaska Air Group's board of directors announced Thursday it will double the number of its shares July 9.
Under the plan, existing shareholders in the SeaTac-based airline company will receive one additional share for every share they own on July 9. That will increase the airline holding company's total number of shares from the existing 68 million or so to more than 136 million.
The stock split will be the second in the airline company's history. It last split its stock in 2012. The extra stock distribution typically cuts the price of the existing stock by half.
Wall Street greeted the news less than enthusiastically. At midday Thursday, Alaska Air Group's stock had declined by some four percent.
Companies typically split their stocks to make shares more affordable to investors and to stimulate more buying activity.
In the last five years, Alaska Air Group's stock, taking into account the previous split, have increased to five times their beginning value.
In trading Thursday, Alaska Air Group's stock was hovering around $93 a share. The company's stock peaked earlier this year at nearly $101 a share.
While the air group's financial results have been stellar in recent years, some investors have become anxious about the threat of new competition from Delta Air Lines at Alaska's Sea-Tac hub. Alaska Air Group owns Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air.
Delta in recent months has announced dozens of new daily flights in direct competition with Alaska's flights on many of the local airline's most frequently traveled routes.
Between Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air, the two control more than 50 percent of the passenger traffic at Sea-Tac. Delta is second in market share at Sea-Tac with a 12 percent share.
Delta says it is adding new domestic flights from Sea-Tac to feed its flock of new international flights from the airport. Delta now flies non-stop from Sea-Tac to Tokyo's two airports, to Hong Kong, Shanghai, Seoul, Beijing, London, Amsterdam and Paris.
The airline also plans new flights to Los Cabos and Puerto Vallarta in Mexico and to Vancouver and Calgary in Canada.

Acts who had started being noticed when they played the Monterey Pop Festival in California in 1967 took the final step to superstardom with their performances at Woodstock. Carlos Santana's rendition of "Soul Sacrifice" is still considered one of the best he has ever done. Jimi Hendrix's discordant, screeching rendition of "Star Spangled Banner" electrified the crowd, fueling its overwhelming sentiment against the Viet Nam War. The Who achieved legendary status when Pete Townshend smashed his guitar and threw it into the crowd at the conclusion of the band's performance of the entire rock opera, Tommy.
Noteworthy No-ShowsSeveral acts were booked and scheduled but didn't show up. Iron Butterfly were stranded at an airport. Joni Mitchell missed it because of a highway closing, but made up for it by writing the song that became one of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's most famous. The Jeff Beck Group would have been there had they not disbanded the week before. The Canadian group, Lighthouse, backed out because they were nervous about the venue and the crowd.
And then there were those who flatly turned down invitations to perform. Led Zeppelin had another gig that paid more. The Byrds had had a bad experience at an outdoor festival in Atlanta. The Doors didn't go because Jim Morrison didn't like to play large outdoor venues. Tommy James and the Shondells turned it down because they were told by their staff only that a pig farmer wanted them to play in his field. Nobody really knows why Bob Dylan and Frank Zappa declined the offer.
Accept No SubstitutesA three day pass to the original Woodstock Festival in 1969 cost $18. In 1999, promoters wanted $150 for a ticket to the 30th anniversary edition. Although the event attracted over 200,000 people and some big name acts to an abandoned Air Force base in upstate New York, it was marred by violence and looting. The only similarity to the original event was the lack of security and sanitary facilities.
Violence also marred Woodstock 1994 – the 25th anniversary event which, like the original, became mired in mud due to heavy rain. 1989's re-enactment at the site of the original Festival was peaceful, but attracted only 30,000 people with a roster of little known bands.
The original Woodstock was as much a state of mind and a snapshot of history as it was a rock festival. Although it has been attempted, it isn't likely that the essence of what made Woodstock what it was will ever be recreated.
"By the time we got to Woodstock
We were half a million strong,
And everywhere there was song and celebration.
And I dreamed I saw the bombers
Riding shotgun in the sky
And they were turning into butterflies."
"Woodstock" ©1969, 1997 Joni Mitchell, published by Crazy Crow Music

Official Site: http://www.bjornagain.com/
Björn Again is a parody of the Swedish pop group ABBA founded in 1988 in Australia, but now involving multiple touring troupes performing under the Björn Again name. The show takes its name from Björn Ulvaeus, a member of ABBA, and a pun on the phrase "born again". Character of the act: Björn Again is run as a light-hearted parody of ABBA, with the use of pidgin Swedish (or 'Swenglish') and stage character names of Agnetha Falstart, Benny Anderwear, Frida Longstokin, and Björn Volvo-us reflecting the names of the original members of ABBA. Björn Again also has a bass guitarist Rutger Sonofagunn and the drummer Ola Drumkitt (from long-time ABBA session musicians Rutger Gunnarsson and Ola Brunkert). History: Björn Again was created in 1988 in Melbourne, Australia by Rod Stephen and John Tyrrell. After the first Björn Again show at a pub in the inner Melbourne suburb of Collingwood called The Tote Hotel on 6 May 1989 the show's popularity increased quickly, which first took the group Australia-wide and then overseas to international acclaim. John has been the manager since the band's inception, and in 2003 Rod was appointed manager of the UK-European region. Björn Again has also occasionally covered songs by other artists. When Erasure produced an EP of ABBA covers called Abba-esque, Björn Again responded with an EP of covers of Erasure songs done in the style of ABBA, called Erasure-ish. The EP included the songs "Stop!" and "A Little Respect" that achieved Number 25 on the UK charts in September 1992. In August 2009 the band covered Metallica's 'Enter Sandman' during their set at the Sonisphere Festival in tribute to the headlining act. Björn Again has performed at many types of event from large rock festivals worldwide including Reading and Glastonbury, to private performances for celebrities, including playing at parties for top UK golfer Colin Montgomerie,Microsoft's Bill Gates, comedian Rowan Atkinson, actor Russell Crowe's Wedding, and for Russian president Vladimir Putin. On 1 May 1998 Björn Again performed a show in the Royal Albert Hall. They performed 11 of ABBAs famous songs. The concert was sold out very quickly. In 2009, the band were controversially booked to play the United Kingdom's leg of Sonisphere Festival at Knebworth, which consisted of a much 'heavier' fan base. As a result of this, the band played their set with a slightly more beefed up sound, more guitars and a tongue-in-cheek rock style adaptation of their costumes. In 1999 the UK Bjorn Again took part in a documentary for Channel 5 entitled "ABBA: Bjorn Again!", this included following the band as they toured the UK. The documentary explored the history of the band. Throughout the programme the band spoke in their "Swedish" accents. Both Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson have lauded Björn Again a number of times over the years, and after ABBA's former members made their intentions known that they were not going to perform together any longer, Andersson was quoted as saying in 1999, "BJÖRN AGAIN are the closest you can get to seeing ABBA. ABBA will never reform!"

Ewing's Sarcoma Treatment
Children with Ewing's sarcoma undergo intensive cancer treatment. Once diagnosed, the child is immediately put on a multi-drug chemotherapy regimen. After about nine weeks, the patient will either undergo surgery to remove what's left of the tumor, or radiation therapy if surgery is not possible. After that, the chemotherapy is continued for a total of up to nine months.
In the past, surgery on tumors in the arm or leg bones almost always required amputation. Limb-sparing surgery techniques, such as bone grafts and artificial bones, can help certain patients avoid losing an arm or leg. The outlook for many Ewing's sarcoma patients is optimistic, except in cases where large tumors cannot be completely removed or have metastasized (spread) to other parts of the body.
If your child has been diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma, we're here to help. Call 1-877-632-6789 to make an appointment or request an appointment online.
Our Ewing's Sarcoma Clinical Trials
The most innovative treatments for childhood solid tumors are offered as part of clinical trials, which are closely monitored studies to test the safety and effectiveness of new treatments. Go to MD Anderson's list of current pediatric clinical trials to see if your child might be eligible.You can also visit our Clinical Trials database or speak to your doctor.
Why Choose MD Anderson?
- The Children's Cancer Hospital is within the No. 1 cancer center in America
- Access to novel therapies and state-of-the-art technologies before most children's hospitals
- We see more types of cancer than any other children's hospital in Texas
- Family-centered care that actively involves parents in their child's treatment
- A strong cancer research program focused on developing new therapies for pediatric patients
- Comprehensive support services such as an accredited school program, creative arts, child life and career counseling

Dismissal of Tinsley grievance denied
Marc Stein at ESPN.com: The NBA informed all 30 teams last week that the arbitrator who will rule on the grievance filed by Jamaal Tinsley against the Indiana Pacers has denied a motion by the Pacers to dismiss the grievance. The grievance was filed on Tinsley's behalf in February by the NBA Players Association, challenging the Pacers' decision to bar Tinsley from participating in any team activities before last season began while they tried to trade him. Indiana's motion to dismiss in May was made on the grounds that the grievance was not filed in a timely fashion. Arbitrator Calvin Sharpe ruled in favor of Tinsley, concluding that the issue of timeliness would be weighed along with all other aspects of the dispute when the sides convene for a hearing on the matter scheduled for July 27-29. According to a Wednesday report from David Aldridge of TNT and NBA.com, Tinsley "has been working out in the Atlanta area and is in terrific condition, considering how long he's been out of action."

If there is one slightly positive thing to take away from the Xbone stuff today
It is that this stuff is just put in hold. The family sharing feature is too good of an idea to completely die forever and be damned to eternal suffering and whatnot. Someone, somewhere, somehow, will implement it.
This will eventually happen. This will all be figured out one day. It's just going to take longer :\\
And, correct me if I'm wrong, but all the "share"(loaning and renting and whatnot) stuff was not going to be there on launch, right? That was coming after. Or did I make that all up? I can't find a link because anything related to the Xbox One in a search shows nothing but todays news. It's freaking everywhere.

The Reds were reeling after 50 minutes when Andreas Weimann doubled the Midlanders' lead but Hernandez reduced the arrears and also claimed the equaliser, which went in off Ron Vlaar.
Hernandez might be the hot favourite for Man of the Match after coming off the bench to again show his class. However, we have three alternatives including Robin van Persie, who twice hit the bar and set up the winner with a free-kick.
Patrice Evra continues to display his best form at left-back and Rafael also caught the eye on the opposite flank, helping to set up the leveller and attacking with his usual flair.

Highlights: Alexey Komov - Russia's representative to the World Congress of Families The traditional nuclear family is a particular enemy of socialism...because it is the basic institution that preserves values and passes them on to the next generation. "The state, if it wants to dominate life and the individual from birth to death, needs to destroy the family, because the family is independent of the state," he argues. "As Marx and Engels said, the family is a repressive, bourgeois institution that needs to be destroyed; they need to get rid of its patriarchal power and that of Christianity because they are the main obstacles of the social revolution." Rocco Buttiglione -- Italian politician [The] meaning of tolerance has subtly changed over the years, so subtly, in fact, that it has escaped people' s notice. "'Don't be judgemental,' people say, but you can translate that as 'Don't think' because to think means to pass judgement,"... [To] think means to create … [Read more...]
Dangerous Flirting: Russia Wonders Why West Is Enamoured With Socialism
Pat. Kyrill Endorses Moscow Demographic Summit, June 29-30, 2011
Finally we have a Patriarch addresses the threat of demographic implosion in the West, supports the strengthening of families, and is pro-life. The Catholic Church, to their credit, have been very consistent on these issues for years. We have Orthodox leaders who hold and support these important values, but when an Orthodox Patriarch is a clear at Pat. Kyrill is in his letter below, we can take heart that leadership is increasing. Secondly, it is important that international efforts such as the World Congress of Families takes place to counter the work of the United Nations and other agencies that have unfortunately inculcated a utilitarian ethic towards human life. The UN promotes many good things, but they also promote abortion and other means of "family planning" that run against not only the moral tradition of Western Civilization, but also the local traditions of the countries they ostensibly help. Download the Moscow Demographic Summit brochure. Visit the Moscow … [Read more...]
Russian Orthodox Leader Stands for Principle
Here we see it unfolding. Orthodox Christianity has much to give the world, and it begins with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and a vigorous defense of biblical teaching through the wisdom and experience of our Orthodox tradition. And the teachings must be clear on the foundational issues that determine whether a culture and people lives or dies: the sanctity of life, marriage and family, sexuality, and the moral principles people have held to for centuries. This must be the message of Orthodox leaders. There is no other. Source: American Thinker The "great man" theory of history — that strong, unique, and highly influential individuals shape history (for good or ill) through their commanding personal characteristics that imbue them with power and influence over a specific period of time or during certain circumstances — may not be as widely accepted today among professional historians as in the past, but for many of us there is no denying what our own … [Read more...]

I have recently been asked who my favorite player on the Ravens is, multiple times. I can never answer this question.
I am one of those guys that can't pick a favorite. In the NBA I have a favorite player, but not in the NFL, especially not on the Ravens. I like all of the guys so much, some more than others, but not one more than the other 52.
I used to say that Ray Lewis was my favorite, since he was the guy that brought be into liking the Ravens years and years ago. Now, since Ray has retired, it is difficult to pick a favorite. There are so many great players to choose from:
- Torrey Smith
- Ray Rice
- Joe Flacco
- Terrell Suggs
- Elvis Dumervil
- Jacoby Jones
- Lardarius Webb
- Haloti Ngata

My weekend started last Wednesday with a family gathering at Fawsley Hall for afternoon tea. My mum, gran, sister and I decided to have a little treat before the madness of the weekend began.
It was the first afternoon tea I think I've had and it was delicious, fresh mint tea, tiny sandwiches, buttered crumpets, cakes and pastries and my favourite scones with jam and clotted cream... The setting is gorgeous too, a luxury country hotel dating back to the 7th century surrounded by rolling hills.
We ate in the Great Hall which was very cosy despite the high ceilings, with fires roaring, candles burning and us curling up on huge armchairs. If you are ever in the Northamptonshire area I'd thoroughly recommend treating yourselves to afternoon tea here.
Here's a few images from the Fawsley Hall website:

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) - Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will enter the regular season having played the fewest preseason snaps of his time as a starter.
Coach Mike McCarthy, quarterbacks coach Ben McAdoo and Rodgers himself were mum on whether he'll even suit up against the Chiefs in the preseason finale. Rodgers would have to play deep into the game to get his snap count up to match the previous five years, and the Packers aren't going to risk their franchise quarterback like that.
So far this preseason, Rodgers has played 45 snaps in five offensive series. He's completed 17 of 24 passes (70.8%) for 237 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions, one sack and a passer rating of 102.3.

The PW Upstairs Space
Colloquially referred to as the upspace, the upstairs space is a flexible black box theatre ideal for theatre, performance art, workshops, musical events, poetry readings, dance concerts, and more. The upstairs space is geared towards providing Brown undergraduates with an artistic performance venue. Only undergraduates will be allowed to enter the lottery. Other members of the Brown community may use the space, but priority is given to undergraduates: contact the the upstairs space coordinators for more information. In the upstairs space, you are encouraged to experiment and push the envelope. Restrictions are made only in the interest of preserving the space as a venue for the Brown community in years to come.
Who's using the space now and what's coming up? Check out our calendar!
Evan, Emma, Thom, and Celeste are the current upstairs space coordinators. Please contact them if you are interested in scheduling the space, or if you have any general questions or concerns.
Check out our upspace show archive. See something missing? Email the upstairs space archivers and they'll update it!
Reserving the PW Upstairs Space
If you are interested in using the space, please review the Rules and Regulations and feel free to contact the the upstairs space coordinators with any questions.
If you would like to reserve a week in the Upspace for a project or a performance, please e-mail Conor to get a board buddy who will help you with your submission. Then submit a paragraph describing your anticipated event and the dates available ranked by your preference (also let us know if there are any you would not accept). Please note the recent change to the buddy system.
The lottery for the second half of the Fall '12 semester is happening soon! Submissions to the lottery are due
Sunday, October 19th at 5PM. Please note the extension of the deadline.
The lottery determines who gets the space when. You will be notified via e-mail about the lottery status following the selection.
The weeks available in the upcoming lottery are:
1. Monday, Nov. 18 to Saturday, Nov. 24
2. Monday, Nov 25 to Saturday, Nov. 31

About the PW Upstairs Space
by Tom Stoppard
Fall 2007
To look at our upcoming events, check out our calendar.
The space features a lighting truss, 24 dimmers, and a light board. The sound system features a sound board, CD-player, amps and four speakers. Reservation of the space comes with the use of 6 fresnel lights and access to the lighting and sound systems, both located in the tech booth. The space also contains a beautiful 1893 Steinway Model D 9' concert grand piano in pretty good shape, though its tuning is not at all guaranteed. Additional equipment may be supplied by the production workshop board on a case-by-case basis (see rules and regulations). It can be an ideal place to employ new designers just learning their craft or to try a new technical position without the bigger size of a downstairs space show.
Useful upstairs space links:
The University's scheduling office. They handle reseravtions of rooms other than the upstairs space for rehearsals.
Each semester, PW awards the Open Jar Grant to a variety of Upspace performance projects.
PW also supports student-written work via the PW Alumni New Works Grant.
The Creative Arts Council. They give out grants of up to $2000 for student projects each semester.
The Late Night Fund. They will give grants to alcohol free events sponsored by student groups. However, they will only accept one application from PW a semester so please be in contact with the upstairs space coordinator about applying for this grant.

A local teen has earned an international award after overcoming social and academic challenges.
Simpsonville native Alex Staarmann looks like a typical teenager, but there's so much more to this story.
He's had to face a lot of social and academic challenges because of his disabilities. Staarmann said his childhood was hard, but he was determined to succeed.
"I have had trouble reading and writing. Those were my weak points," Staarmann said.
He said he's thankful for his parents, Debbie and John, and Academic Resource Center Director Debbie Irwin for encouraging him to succeed.
And it turns out, his hard work and discipline helped him win the 2012 Yes I Can award from the Council for Exceptional Children.
Each year, CEC honors 21 students with disabilities who have excelled and Staarmann proudly won the award in the academics category.
Staarmann graduated high school magna cum laude in May Southside Christian School.
Now, he's looking towards the next chapter in this life. He plans to attend the University of Alabama at Huntsville this fall to study meteorology.

Do you have that episode where these two friends were there..ReplyDelete
Do you have this episode where these two friends were there..ReplyDelete
The marriage registrar's office, a girl and a guy waiting (not a couple mind you) in the queue. The workplace is about to break for lunch. The people waiting in the queue have dispersed
except for the two, who are apparently waiting for their respective fiancés. They get started when the people they have been waiting for land up. And who are they? Who hate the look of each other? Start fighting at the sight of other? Well … they were living-together before…and so they meet again…and what could possibly happen? They keep coming up with things like "you burnt my magazines right? You didn't call back after I left a message…. etc. etc. etc. so the other two who watch them fight, get bored and decide to marry each other. So that leaves us with the two of them again. And you can guess what happens.

Lawn Chairs are awesome.
Do you own such a creation? I want a couple of those. I have never seen nor heard of that, WOW!
Hmmm....wouldnt the substructure rot away? Interesting Idea though
Well you see what had happened was....
I suppose if you filled it with dirt completely, the substructure (ie, cardboard) could rot freely and it wouldnt matter... Interesting overall idea... and yes, in general, Lawnchairs are awesome!

Press release from the issuing company
As an industry leader, global anilox roll supplier Harper Corporation of America is constantly innovating the products and processes within the flexographic field. As the rest of the world embraces the digital revolution, so, too, has Harper Corporation. Now ESKO certified in HD Flexo, Harper Corporation of America is continuing with its mission of providing the highest quality service and products to its clients.

In addition to being on the cutting edge of technology, HD Flexo is an environmentally-friendly and efficient solution for flexographic organizations looking to improve their operations. This process can be integrated into print room procedures without having to replace existing equipment or operational policies. As a result, the transition to HD Flexo is smooth for both flexographic professionals and their clients.
Harper Corporation of America received ESKO certification in HD Flexo in January of 2012. This certification is used with XLT 60° high end anilox rolls. The engravings range from 900cpi to 1600cpi and are perfect for both Narrow and Wide Web markets. By combining Harper Corporation of America's precise anilox roll engravings and ESKO's prepress technology, Harper's customers are able to produce superior ink release, consistent printability, and exceptional print quality.

5 stars based on 3 Reviews
Servings: 6-8
Prep Time:
Cook Time:
Difficulty: Easy
2 tablespoons Butter
1 medium onion, diced
1 stalk celery, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
2 cups cubed and dried cornbread
1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 boneless, turkey breast half, about 3 pounds
2 tablespoons Canola oil
Fresh thyme and sage, for garnish
Kosher Salt and freshly ground pepper
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add onions and celery and sauté until soft and translucent. Add garlic and garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the fresh herbs, cornbread, pecans, cranberries and chicken broth, stirring well with a wooden spoon to fully incorporate. Let flavors marry together and warm on the stovetop for 2-3 minutes. Season stuffing with salt and freshly ground pepper. Remove from heat and let chill slightly.
Carefully remove the skin from the breast of the turkey, being careful not to tear. Place turkey breast, skin side up on a cutting board. Holding a knife parallel to work surface, slice through the breast, almost in half, without cutting it all the way through. Open the breast like a book.
Lay the turkey between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound out using a meat mallet, to an even thickness, about ½ to ¾ inch thick. Remove turkey from plastic wrap, season with salt and pepper, and spread stuffing evenly across the turkey breast, leaving a 3/4 inch border all around the edges.
Roll the turkey breast over the stuffing, creating a uniform log. Do not roll too tight or the stuffing will fall out. Wrap the skin around the breast, hiding the seam of the log. Use kitchen twine to tie and secure the shape, while keeping the stuffing intact. Season the outside of the turkey with salt and pepper.
Roast until a thermometer inserted to the stuffing registers 155 degrees, about 45 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest, tented with foil, for 15 minutes. The temperature should reach 165 after resting. Trim kitchen twine and slice. Garnish with fresh herbs.

Helen Flanagan to quit?
Of course stories about cast members leaving do crop up on a fairly regular basis, but it must be hard for poor Helen who admitted herself to suffering from panic attacks for quite some time off-set to have to go through something like this at work.
She's also been on-screen a lot lately since her return and no doubt the Just Rosie spin-off was hard work for her as well so hopefully once things calm down a bit more she'll be okay because it would be a shame if the street was forced to say goodbye to such a unique and comical character.

Four words from me: Who gives a monkeys?
She is lucky to have got a regular job in a soap like Corrie with her "acting skills".
- 10 October 2011 07:34
Frosty - the person above you gives a monkey. And me.
- 10 October 2011 07:48
Frosy - here's my monkey to add to the queue!
Rosie webster is one of my favourite characters right now - she hasn't always been, admittedly, but I so think that was a problem with the writers/producers exploiting an attractive young girl.
I really hope Helen manages to deal with her panic attacks and I wish her the very best at a difficult time.

Rosie would be sadly missed. Hang in there Helen.

Rosie has never meant much to me, but I realized when she and Eileen were doing the dating site scenes, she really is very good at comedy. I laughed anyway, I mean I know her character is obnoxious, but she has this character down so well, and yeah, I think she has a flair for comedy, and that's one of Corrie's strengths.

I am another who gives a monkeys, rosies provides a bit of relief after the dullness of toxic Tracy Barlow
- 10 October 2011 18:51
I hope Rosie doesnt leave for good, write her out for a while a modeling school in Paris would do her character a lot of good, it would be sad to see Sallly lose a daughter.Amber was a way for a while now she back keep the young ones alive.

The sooner the better.She can't act.I can't stand her.

Teddy Roosevelt's foreign policy was to "walk softly and carry a big stick." Those words of wisdom are useful for walkers and hikers to remember as well. When should you use a stick and how do you choose one?
More: Top Picks for Walking Sticks
George Barker of Whistle Creek Walking Sticks provides this insight:
"Man's second invention - the stick - 5,000 B.C." His first invention was the rock - as a tool, but some people debate that the stick was used first to uproot the rocks. So the debate goes on...
See illustrations of Moses and Shepherds using their sticks and staffs to heard their flocks -both people and sheep. The staff was the early symbol of leadership in the Church and in most organizations - the guy person with the big stick was the boss. Later in history -"Walk softly... and carry a big stick." And then the founder of the Boy Scouts, Lord Baden Powell, never seen without his trusty hiking staff. Today the stick is still a friend on the trail, always there to lend support, leverage or an advance "feel" of terrain ahead. Trekking poles are but one more attempt at variation on perhaps man's oldest tool - the stick.
Hiking staffs are being purchased by both new comers and seasoned walkers alike. Making a beautiful hand-finished walking staff is a lot of work, and many people prefer to let us do the labor so they can have the fun. We cut our staffs in the winter, when the sap is not running, then dry them in a kiln for 6-8 weeks while straightening them. Once dry, we hand finish each one, removing just enough of the bark to make the stick smooth to the touch while allowing nature's beauty to shine through. The stick is then "baptized" with a coat of lacquer and fitted with a steel-reinforced neoprene rubber tip and a leather thong.
More-experienced walkers have several sticks handy depending on the type of trek they are going on. Neighborhood aerobic "walk-outs" with a staff are normally conducted with a well balanced, straight and smooth no-frills wood staff. This permits use of the stick for stretching and upper-body exercise routines while on the walk. Simple neighborhood strolls suggest a comfortable handled stick for cadence, tempo and "critter" protection in today's neighborhood environments. Serious treks for miles through arduous terrain would call for a height-measured stick, six inches or more above the elbow, light in weight yet strong enough to meet the demands of the hiker on the trail.
Features include sticks with compasses in their tops, sticks with whistles carved into them for trail signaling, leather thongs and different types of tips. Sticks vary from a hand-rubbed high gloss finish to the rustic "bark" feel.
WARNING: We do not make sticks out of aluminum or other electrically conductive materials because of the thunder storms in the Rockies where we hike. More: Lightning Safety for Walkers
What Size and Weight?
When selecting a staff, it should be at least 6" above your elbow to allow for plenty of staff going down hill. Hickory is our "Man's stick" weight-wise because it is heavier and a little stronger. Sassafras or one of our Discovery Series Pine staffs are lighter in weight but plenty strong for most hiking needs. You can always shorten a Whistle Creek stick by removing the rubber tip and sawing off what you don't want, then putting the rubber tip back on.
TrendsRetailers who have provided customers with staffs have always done well with them. In the future, "boomers" are going to still want to be active, and a staff helps a boomer stay that way longer. Staffs allow a typical hiker to reduce the "foot-felt" body weight by as much as 20%. Since the hiker is leaning on the staff rather than his foot with each step he takes, the feet have less work to do. Try standing on a scale and leaning on a staff. When you lean over on the staff (that is on the ground), your body weight goes down. Switching from left to right hand with the staff balances this weight savings while evenly distributing the aerobic benefits of the upper-body exercise. You win big both ways. Some hikers are even using two staffs, although we recommend just one for safety. (Two staffs are hard for the average person to get used to.)
~ George Barker, Whistle Creek Walking Sticks
Dan Fry of "Raisin Cane" & Hiking Stick Company
Email: email@example.com
I make walking sticks and canes out of driftwood I pick up from the banks of the Columbia River and the Oregon coast. I carve animals, birds and mainly Indian style,(reproductions of petroglyphs, petrographs and Chiefs heads etc...), Sometimes integrating knots, natural twists and features of the stick. I use shells, agates and several other natural features. After intensive sanding I finish with several clear coats, or will just use water sealant to preserve natural beauty. I'm really not sure if I have any words of "wisdom" for you...... I think the closest thing I have is to tell you the process I go through in picking the right stick to carve.
I begin by finding a ready supply of driftwood. Heightens the odds of finding a worthwhile piece of wood. When I find an unusual looking piece, I look it over a few minutes to see if there is something already in the wood just waiting to be carved. Then if I feel it has potential, I will find a big rock or stump and hit it over it to see if it will survive actual usage, no matter what it's being used for. If the stick survives this test,(not many do!), then I carry it home and dry it thoroughly before I even begin to consider carving on it!
I spend a lot of time looking at and feeling the stick to obtain the best weight and ergonomics of each stick. It must be lightweight and the grip carved at the right length and angle. I will even go so far as to ask my customer to send me a print of their hand by gripping a paper roll and tracing the hand with a pen. These sticks are made to endure many moons worth of hiking!!!!

The economy has certainly not grown as President Obama and his financial guru, Larry Summers, estimated.
Raising taxes, increases in regulations, uncertainty and costs associated with Obamacare have not helped at all. Raising the minimum wage at this time is one of measures that would certainly make things even worse as all labor costs would shoot up in all businesses. Further job cuts would take place, saving only the more productive ones.
Didn't the Herald cut back costs, sell its headquarters and tighten its belt due to changes in reading habits, technology and a weak economy? Please, this is college freshman Economics 101 basic theory.

As I go through my potential 52 man roster I see really only one glaring problem and really understand the way they drafted the way they did. I was disappointed at first glance of the picks but quickly changed my mind after arranging this list. I think we have some steals that play into exactly what we needed.
QB- 3- We have a lock on two with room for one developmental
-Campbell/ Boller/ ? probably Frye or Grad this year
RB- 4- We are set (Bennet is more than likely practice squad now and i think if bush leaves Rankin fills in)
-DMC/ Bush / Jones / Cartwright (ST)
TE- 3- if Zach god forbid leaves (Ausberry, Myers, Gordon) Aus goes to WR if zack returns
- Zach/ Myers/ Gordon (pure blocking) or Ausberry (is my sleeper Z. Miller J.R.) /Myers/ Gordon
FB -1- Reese- Gotta keep him mismatch heaven
WR- 6- Lovin this group now we have size and speed and can interchange depending on he defense
-Chaz/ Murphy/ Moore/ Ford/ DHB/ N.Miller (if Zack Leaves) Ausberry if Zach stays
Chaz/ Aus bring size- Moore and murphy solid possesion and speed Ford no need to explain and DHB If he can learn to catch vertical threat
We start getting shaky here OL (resign Satale) C/G we have options.
C- 2 versatile players that could start
-Wiz/ Satale
G-2- we have about 4 players we think can fill these spots
-Loper/ Campbell/ Wiz/ Satele
T - 4 - probably the biggest problem no depth (Need 2 Free Agents please Gaither or Light & Walker or Barnes)
backups (Henderson/ Walker/ Barnes may not be returning)
-Veldheer/ Barksdale/ ?/ Maybe Campbell (idk)
DL is beautiful
DE-4- Houston/ Shaugassy/ Scott/ Moss
DT- 4- Seymour/ Kelly/ Bryant/ Henderson
I'm not concerned about our LBs. Health was a problem with DT and inexperience, both in the NFL and our system for the LBs. if herzlich can come in UDFA and beat out Brown I would be happy
SLB-2- Wimbley/ Groves
MLB- 2- McClain/ probably bring back Brown (rather free up space for Herzlich)
WLB- 2- Goethel/ Howard
If we use a 3-4 occasionally
SLB- Wimbley
Middle- McClain and geothel
WLB- Howard
SS- 2- Mitchell/ Branch (whichever one steps up)
FS- 3- Don't think huff returns (This all rests in the hands of Rod Woodson and how good a coach he can be I think DVD could fill in good if coached and a little bulk has the speed and range)
- DVD or Chikwa/ Brown/ Eugene (ST)
Outside CB- 3- Hopefully return of the Awesome 1 (if no return look for a starting FS- Sharper or CB- Aquib might be released in FA) / Routt/ Johnson/ (these 2 cannot play nickle or dime)
NCB- 2- Chikwa or DVD/ Ware (all perfect for nickle and dime)
ST-3 - Condo/ Jano/ Lechler
GO RAIDERS!!!!!! Good Playoff Run 2011-12 & Superbowl 2012-13
