Once upon a time parents read to their children... Not any more

Less than a third
of UK parents read to their children every day, according to a survey.
Two thirds of parents and grandparents (67%) believe that modern technology in the home distracts them from storytelling, while a third (29%) are too tired for tales, another third (29%) get home from work too late and 22% are busy with other activities at home, the poll for Disney found.
Although just 30% of parents read to their children daily, 51% say story time allows them to spend quality time together and 47% know their children enjoy having books read to them.
The poll of 1,000 parents and grandparents of children under the age of six found mothers are most likely to read to their youngsters (48%), followed by fathers (21%) and grandparents (17%).
It also revealed that 58% of women were read to when they were children compared with 44% of men.
Television and radio presenter Zoe Ball, who is helping to launch Disney's Winnie the Pooh Storytelling Academy, which offers tips for reading to children, said: "When I was young my dad (the presenter Johnny Ball) would enthusiastically read tales of Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Tigger and friends to me, and put on daft voices to really bring the story to life.
"These are memories which I treasure and now I can share those special bedtime stories with my own children."
Disney spokeswoman Justine Finch said: "We set up the Winnie the Pooh Storytelling Academy as a valuable online resource where parents and grandparents who face storytelling challenges such as a lack of confidence or distractions can go to pick up tips and tricks from our panel of experts.
"In this hyper-connected world we want to help them to keep the art of storytelling alive for the next generation via a whole host of media like iPad apps, audio books and the traditional hardback, to create memorable shared family experiences."
:: YouGov surveyed 1,000 UK parents and grandparents of children under six years old in August.

iPad gets stuck in car's bumper
Updated On: Apr 13 2013 12:06:16 PM PDT
Talk about a tough tablet. An Atlanta woman drove around all day with a fully-functioning iPad stuck in her car's bumper.
Alexa Crisa told WSB-TV she was driving at about 40 mph when the device, accidentally left on top of another car that was turning out of a local Target store, flew into her vehicle.
She hit the brakes, but continued on her way to run more errands because she didn't think she had hit anything.
Crisa's dad spotted the iPad when she returned home, asking her why she had a tablet computer sticking out of her front bumper.
"I'm not even sure how I missed it, other than I don't check my bumper for random dislodged electronics," Crisa told ABC News.
Her dad used a hammer to pry out the device, which still worked well enough for an app to flash the owner's name and phone number on the screen.
The owner got a new iPad through his Apple warranty plan, and has offered to pay for a new bumper, according to the New York Daily News.

Today morning at around 9 o'clock the first snow arrived in Budapest. It was just some flakes but enough to feel that winter is coming. After a warm fall with over 20 degrees on some days the winter seems to be in Budapest.
The last days the weather changed to cold and windy and today morning the snow. Of course it did not last long and the snow did not stay on the ground but now the feeling of winter time started.
The following two tabs change content below.
I have created BudapestAgent.com in 2005 as a diary to collect my experience about Budapest. Over the time I have visited nearly 100 Restaurants, 50+ Clubs, 50+ Bars and Cafés and many other places which I have written my experience about.

2.5 stars for Mediterranean seafood at Brickell's Mare Nostrum
2.5 stars for Mediterranean seafood at Brickell's Mare Nostrum
Mare Nostrum
1111 SW First Ave, Miami
Hours: noon-4pm and 6-11p. daily
Prices: Appetizers $7.95-$34, main courses $17.95-$36.95, dessert $8.95
FYI: Full bar. Valet parking available. AX, DS, MC, VS.
Mare Nostrum is beautiful, with a minimalist elegance, high ceilings and wide spacing between the tables. And so is the fish glistening beneath refrigerated glass as guests enter the dining room. I like being told, when I ask, what each is called and its provenance — that stuff of Portlandia spoofs being important when it comes to something as fragile as seafood.
Mare Nostrum, as the name connotes, is mostly a seafood restaurant. There is a pasta craftsman on board, though I didn't sample his wares. I came here for the creatures of "our sea," as the Romans, the original Latinos, called that ocean to their south. Why import seafood from across the Atlantic when there's so much of it a few blocks away, in the mare nostrum we call the Caribbean? We're sailing with the foodies, who want the authentically precious.
What Worked
- A nice amuse-bouche of béchamel croquetas
- Choosing from the wine list on an E-tablet
- Sea bass fillets simply prepared in a skillet and cooked to perfection
- Mediterranean tuna, cut thick and grilled rare, like a good beefsteak
- Excellent dorada (sea bream) baked in salt & served tableside
- Luscious manchego cheesecake with quince sorbet
- A 2010 Filaboa albariño wine
What Didn't Work
- More interesting than satisfying olive oil cake with olive oil ice cream
- Slow & labored tableside service for the dorada baked in salt
- Incredibly tender, but not very flavorful fried shark bits
- Flavorful, but not tender enough razor clams in marinara sauce
The Big Review
- Restaurant review: Bright colors, bold flavors at Cantina La Veinte
- Miami restaurant review: BLT Prime steakhouse mostly sizzles at Trump National in Doral
- Miami restaurant review: R House Wynwood
- 3 stars for Embarcadero, a downtown Miami Peruvian restaurant that does it all
- 2.5 stars for Loba's elevated home cooking in MiMo
- 2.5 stars for Belgian waffles, beer and more at Bistro BE in Miami
- Four stars for exceptional food, service at J&G Grill in Bal Harbour
- Three stars for Mignonette, Miami's charming new oyster bar
- Two stars for priced-right pizzas and pastas at La Gazzetta in Miami
- Two stars for Tap 79's affordable and comforting pub fare

Unfortunately, for Canada, the Maple Leafs lost 9-2.

Lafayette Parish voters Saturday overwhelmingly approved a bond proposal for road and bridge repair and supported the continuation of a tax funding the sheriff's office. In Acadiana's only multi-parish race, state Rep. Elbert Guillory threw a wrench into the Cravins works and won the most votes in the state Senate District 24 primary contest handily over Pat Cravins, mother of Don Cravins Jr., who vacated the seat to take a job in Washington, D.C. And Sam Dore is the favorite to be the next Lafayette Consolidated Government District 6 council member.
In the five-way race for District 24, which comprises part of north Lafayette Parish and most of St. Landry Parish, Guillory pulled in 41 percent of the vote. Cravins received 28 percent, leading to a runoff. An interesting sidebar to the District 24 race: In the north Lafayette portion of the district, Cravins stomped Guillory 51 percent to 23 percent.
In a race that was close until the final furlong, Dore pulled ahead of fellow Republicans Max Jordan and Joe Riley. Dore garnered 38 percent of the vote, compared to Jordan's 31 percent and Riley's 30 percent, setting up a Dore-Jordan runoff next month.
The continuation of the property tax funding the Lafayette Parish Sheriff's Office passed by a vote of 69 percent in favor and 31 percent opposed. The tax, first approved by voters in 1980, generates about $13 million annually, roughly one-third of the office's $42 million budget.
Passage of the bond proposal gives LCG the go-ahead to issue $26 million in bonds for the repair of 150 roads and more than 15 bridges in rural Lafayette Parish. The proposition passed easily, 71 percent in favor, 29 percent opposed. Contacted just after 10 p.m. Saturday when the results of the vote were clear and incontrovertible, City-Parish President Joey Durel was relieved. "I'm pleasantly surprised," Durel said. "I didn't know what to think. One of the advantages of low turnout is, people that do bother [to vote] are generally informed." Durel went on to add, "The good news is, people pretty obviously understood the message."
Saturday the athletic department did everything possible to ensure the 2014 Ragin' Cajun seniors remembered fondly their last home game. Rain and lightning never arrived but turbulence did in the form of the Appalachian State Mountaineers.

NOV 24 Because of a town ordinance, the police will come to a disabled girl's home this week to take away her service dog and kill him. Sound like a bad Lifetime movie? Nope - it's real life in Moreauville, blogger Lamar White Jr. tells us in this post. The dog's crime? Being born a pit bull. What's the reason for this ordinance? Well, the town fathers are a little vague on that one. Maybe Obama?
NOV 24 Columnist Stephanie Grace is writing about Bobby Jindal's continuing refusal to accept federal funding for the expansion of Medicaid. It's purely an attempt to benefit him politically, meaning the decision is "cruel, short-sighted and remarkably self-centered." Well, yeah. Have you met him?
NOV 24 The New York Times editorial board is writing about the 40 years that Albert Woodfox has spent in solitary confinement in this post, calling it "barbaric beyond measure." Since Richard Nixon was president, the man has been in solitary in Angola Plantation Penitentiary. How is that OK with us?
NOV 24 The GOP has a boogie-man for anybody thinking about voting for Mary Landrieu: President Obama. But the Dems have one for Bill Cassidy, too, Melinda Deslatte writes in this AP post on The Reading Eagle -- and his name is Governor Jindal.
NOV 24 Blogger Bob Mann is blogging about race and the Senate campaign in this post. Sure, everybody knows that Mary Landrieu doesn't do too well with white folks, but how come the GOP can't get arrested in the black community? Bob is asking.
NOV 24 Early voting for the December election began Saturday, and this post on NOLA Defender tells us what Mary and Bill were up to. The polls and the pundits have their opinions, but none of that can replace actual voting, NODEF says.
NOV 24 Blogger Tom Aswell tells us about Bruce Greenstein's grand jury testimony in this post. The former state health secretary testified in an investigation into the lucrative contract Louisiana awarded to his former employer. Apparently, Mr. Greenstein has a bit of the C.R.S. disease.
NOV 24 Last week, an SUV carrying a blended Texas family overturned on the Interstate near Shreveport, killing the parents and three of their kids, and seriously injuring two other kids. According to this story in the Dallas Morning News, the DA has exercised some compassion and dismissed the ticket given to the teen who was driving.
NOV 21 One (possible) positive from Hurricane Katrina is a comprehensive zoning ordinance for New Orleans. Nine years later, we're getting closer to that being finalized, but the current version has some problems. Here's the latest in a series of posts on The Lens in which residents give their views of the draft; this one is more amusing than most.
NOV 21 The end of the term has come for the grand jury investigating a lucrative Medicaid contract and a former state health official's ties to the company that won it, the Advocate reports here, but that doesn't mean the investigation into this stinkiness is over. There are still some things to look into, the lead prosecutor says.
NOV 21 Bobby Jindal is headed to Iowa again, the Des Moines Register reports here. The paper outlines what's going on with Bobby's non-campaign for president, and there's a lot of stuff here -- too bad none of it sounds like somebody running Louisiana. Hey, wasn't that the job he wanted?

Deputy Ángel Rodríguez, chair of the Energy and
Mines Committee, Venezuelan National Assembly, rebutted as
illegal the rulings by US and British courts to freeze the
assets of Venezuelan oil giant Pdvsa in the US, the United
Kingdom, the Netherlands and the Netherlands Antilles, as
part of a complaint filed by US oil major Exxon Mobil after
its assets in heavy-crude oil Orinoco belt were seized by
the Venezuelan government last May.
The nationalization process, under which foreign firms were forced to enter into joint ventures where the Venezuelan State holds a majority stake, "comes as part of an exercise of full oil sovereignty in Venezuelan territory. Any dispute or lawsuit should be addressed under the jurisdiction of domestic courts only. Therefore, the National Assembly forcefully rejects the pretensions of the oil multinational to bias the international arbitration -which is a colonialist practice that prevailed in the oil opening agreements initialed in the 90's and which runs counter to the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela."
In Rodríguez's view, the court orders are intended to have an influence on Venezuela's allocations of oil areas, as the Bolivarian government has set principles to diversify partners in hydrocarbons operations and privilege policies favoring Latin American and Caribbean union.
He ratified that Venezuela is free to award future areas in the Orinoco oil belt, which holds the world's largest liquid hydrocarbons reserve.

HYDROCARBONS Venezuelan Minister of Foreign Affairs Rafael Ramírez discussed on Monday with Russian authorities the status of the oil market and the sustained plunge in oil prices, the Venezuelan Foreign Office reported.
OIL Russia and Venezuela discussed joint actions to fight falling oil prices, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said on Tuesday after holding talks on Monday with Venezuela's Foreign Minister Rafael Ramírez.
PDVSA Russian oil giant Rosneft said on Monday that it had signed a new oil and byproducts supply agreement with Venezuelan state-run oil company Petróleos de Venezuela (Pdvsa).

Latest Headlines
Huawei revealed the construction of a Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV) lab that will allow operators and equipment manufacturers on three continents to trial NFV, software defined networking (SDN) and cloud computing technologies.
When you're the host of the party, it's natural to take the stage at some point, which is exactly what Huawei's rotating CEO did when the company hosted the second day of the Global Mobile Broadband (MBB) Forum 2014, supported by the GSMA and the China Academy of Telecommunication Research of MIIT, in Shanghai, China.
Huawei is getting even deeper into 5G waters, inking a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with MegaFon in Russia, with plans to demonstrate 5G in a trial during the FIFA World Cup in 2018.
Alcatel-Lucent CEO Michel Combes said that the vendor is "back in the game" in terms of competing with its top rivals and that the company is looking, like other gear makers, for non-carriers customers. After skirting with financial disaster and undergoing a massive restructuring, Combes seemed to be brimming with confidence about Alcatel-Lucent's prospects.
Huawei's been making a lot of noise about 5G lately, so it's no surprise that rival ZTE would want to get in on the action. The Chinese vendor provided updates on its vision for "pre5G" at an international meeting of industry officials.
ZTE revealed further progress in Europe after its local German subsidiary scored two managed services deals with operators in the Netherlands and Luxembourg.
Huawei plans to invest £5 million (€6.3 million/$7.9 million) in the University of Surrey's 5G Innovation Centre (5GIC), which is currently one of the leading 5G research initiatives in the world alongside other government, industry, and university-led programmes in the European Union, China, Japan, South Korea and the U.S.
Given Huawei's stated desire to be perceived as a European company, it's not a big surprise to hear the company is investing heavily in a 5G test bed at the University of Surrey in Guildford, England.
Huawei, China Telecom Fujian (Fujian Telecom) and China Telecom Beijing Research Institute have teamed up to deliver a transport software-defineable network (T-SDN), which is focused on delivering private line bandwidth on demand (BoD) over a transport network.
Huawei's deployment of a Wi-Fi network for the Washington Redskins at FedExField in Landover, Md., is just one of several stadium projects for the infrastructure vendor.

Hedge fund Harmony Capital has agreed to sell all of its assets in a deal that will allow its managers to continue to manage those assets.
The Singapore-based firm told clients last month that an undisclosed buyer had bid US$70 million for the assets, a 26% discount to the fund's net asset value on Aug. 15. It's also US$26 million less than a non-binding bid Harmony, which suspended redemptions in 2008, received in May.
The new bid has caused a fury among investors—who accepted the redemption freeze in exchange for a diminishing management fee structure—as Harmony appears to have waited until it squeezed the last management fees from clients before striking the lower deal.
"Why did they wait until the management fees had run out before deciding to sell?" one investor asked Reuters. "If they were prohibited from managing the assets after the sale, we could accept that they were protecting our interests. This way, we take a big loss on current value, while they can liquidate the portfolio immediately and claim a fat fee."
Chief investment officer Suresh Withana admitted in the letter to investors that his role and that of executive director John Nicholls in managing the assets after the sale "creates a conflict of interest for the directors of the fund's board who also have interests in the manager." But Withana said he and Nicholls would abstain from voting on the sale.

Lindbergh students use interactive technology every day to connect with a new generation of learning opportunities. For many students, this already means bringing their own devices to school.
The Lindbergh Schools Board of Education recently voted to approve the 2015-16 academic calendar. The first day of the 2015-16 school year is Thursday, Aug. 20, 2015.

Former Francestown couple donates 149 acres for conservation
"It's actually a large tract of land close to Brennan Brook," said Paula Hunter, a member of the board of directors of the Francestown Land Trust. "It's very pristine, undeveloped land."
Former residents John and Diane Schott donated the land, which will be named the Diane and John R. Schott Brennan Falls Reserve, after the cascades there. John Schott wrote the history of Francestown and the couple remains devoted to the town.
The easement was obtained in partnership with the Piscataquog Land Conservancy. It became possible through a $120,000 grant awarded to the Piscataquog Land Conservancy by the New Hampshire Land and Community Heritage Investment Program (LCHIP) and about $225,000 raised through other grants, private donations, and money received through the Davis Conservation Fund, Fields Ponds Foundation and the McIninch Foundation.
More importantly, it contains one of three headwater streams that feed into the Piscataquog River and eventually into the Merrimack River.
Much of the PLC's work is about protecting forest, water and wildlife, Bellemore said. In this case a large piece of Francestown history will also be preserved.
Hikers may still come across walls, cellar holes and other remnants in the area known locally as the "lost village."
Now in the control of the land trusts, the property can't be developed and restrictions have been placed on its use.

Published: 26 February 2013
Rogue landlords are being targeted in a clampdown on sub-standard private homes in central London.
Hundreds of hazards were removed from properties in Westminster, which has the highest concentration of privately rented homes in the UK.
Council officials found tenants shivering because of poor central heating, damp problems and hazards that could lead to serious injury from falls, such as broken banisters and low windows.
Housing officials removed 771 "hazards" from more than 1,700 properties, said the council. Officials also found overcrowding, mould and poor sanitation.
More than 200 legal notices were served on landlords ordering them to carry out improvements or face prosecution and fines of up to £5,000.
Jonathan Glanz, the council's cabinet member for housing, said: "The majority of landlords in Westminster do provide decent homes, but there are powers in place which we can call upon when landlords renting privately to tenants in their area do not play by the rules. Few seem to know that if you are privately renting in the capital, councils are there to help if your home puts your health at risk."
Opposition Labour leader Paul Dimoldenberg urged the council to sign up to a landlord registration scheme, setting basic standards for a property before it can be let.

The topic of 'currency war' has been bantered about in financial circles since at least the term was first used by Brazilian Finance Minister Guido Mantega in September 2010. Recently, the currency war has escalated, and a 'sanctions war' against Russia has broken out. History suggests that financial assets are highly unlikely to preserve investors' real purchasing power in this inhospitable international environment, due in part to the associated currency crises, which will catalyse at least a partial international remonetisation of gold. Vladimir Putin, under pressure from economic sanctions, may calculate that now is the time to play his 'gold card'.

US Manufacturing PMI Misses By Most On Record, Lowest Since JanuarySubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/20/2014 09:53 -0500
Recovery, we have a problem... November's Flash US Manufacturing PMI printed a 10-month lows 54.7, missing expectation sof 56.3 by the most on record and tumbling for the third month in a row. The last 2 mnths have seen the biggest drop since June 2013 ands as Markit notes, suggests a further drop in GDP growth expectations of only 2.5% in Q4. Output is down for the 3rd straight month and Surprise!! Export market weakness is being blamed... as it seems the US cannot decouple from the rest of the world's slump after all and is - as we have explained numerous times - merely on a lagged cycle. We're gonna need more Fed-fueled subprime-auto-loan malarkey to keep this dream alive.

The Eurozone's QE ProblemSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/19/2014 19:31 -0500
"QE is a necessary condition for recovery in Europe, but is not sufficient in itself. The question is where does this bridge take us? The eurozone can survive a couple more years of miserable growth, but it can't go on forever like this before people lose hope. There is political risk almost everywhere."

Japanese Trade Deficit Streak Hits Record 44 Months, Yen & Stocks DecouplingSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/19/2014 19:08 -0500
While hopes of the J-Curve recovery in the deficit are long forgotten in the annals of Goldman Sachs history, silver-lining-seekers will proclaim the very modest beat in tonight's Japanese trade deficit a moral victory for a nation whose economic data has been nothing but abysmal for months. However, the near $1 trillion Yen deficit is the 44th month in a row as exports to US and Europe rose modestly in Yen terms but dropped to China and US in volume terms. USDJPY continues its march higher (now 118.25) but, unfoirtunately for Abe's approval ratings, Japanese stocks continue to languish an implied 1000 points behind - unable to break back above pre-GDP levels... as faith in Kuroda's omnipotence falters.

All Eyes On The Freefalling Yen Which Just Plunged To Fresh 7 Year LowsSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/19/2014 06:55 -0500
Once again all eyes are on the carry-trade driving Yen, whose avalance into oblivion is picking up speed, and where the formerly unimaginable USDJPY level of 120 as presented here in September, is now looking like this week's business, with the only question how long until Albert Edwards' next target of 145 is hit leading to nuclear currency warfare between Japan, Korea, China and ultimately, the US and Europe. Unfortunately, for Japan, at this point the terminal currency collapse will do nothing to incrementally boost exports or its economy, and the former Japan finmin was on the tape warning again that the Japanese recession will persist as USDJPY over 115 is now hurting Japan, something which should by now have been clear to most.

Hugh Hendry: "I Believe Central Bankers Are Terrified"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 11/18/2014 14:24 -0500
"My premise hasn't really changed since I published my paper explaining why I had become more constructive towards risk assets this time last year. That is to say, the structural deficiency of global demand continues to radicalise the central banking community. I believe they are terrified: the system is so leveraged and vulnerable to potentially systemic price reversals that the monetary authorities find themselves beholden to long only investors and obliged to support asset prices. However, I clearly confused everyone with my choice of language. What I should have said is that investors are perhaps misconstruing rising equity prices as a traditional bull market spurred on by revenue and earnings growth, and becoming fearful of a reversal, when instead the persistent upwards drift in stock markets is more a reflection of the steady erosion of the soundness of the global monetary system and therefore the rise in stock prices is something that is likely to prevail for some time."

About That Japanese DowngradeSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/18/2014 14:21 -0500
While we no longer live in a world in which debt matters - because central banks will just monetize it in their ongoing and no longer covert effort to reflate the final bubble - and thus debt ratings are an irrelevant anachronism from a bygone era, we can't help but recall a certain statement by S&P from September of last year, in which the rating agency reminded everyone just why Japan has to proceed with both its first sales tax hike from 5% to 8%, (which, together with weather, has now been blamed on Japan's shocking quadruple-dip recession), but also the follow up from 8% to 10%, which as we now know, has been delayed indefinitely, and which was supposed to prefund welfare spending for Japan's demographic disaster which with every passing day gets closer and closer.

Jeremy Grantham's Bubble Watch Update: "S&P To 2250 Before It Crashes"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 11/18/2014 10:38 -0500
"My personal fond hope and expectation is still for a market that runs deep into bubble territory (which starts, as mentioned earlier, at 2250 on the S&P 500 on our data) before crashing as it always does. Hopefully by then, but depending on what the rest of the world's equities do, our holdings of global equities will be down to 20% or less. Usually the bubble excitement – which seems inevitably to be led by U.S. markets – starts about now, entering the sweet spot of the Presidential Cycle's year three, but occasionally, as you have probably discovered the hard way already, history can be a snare and not a help." - Jeremy Grantham

Algos Sell The News, Then BTFD Following Much Anticipated Abe Snap Election AnnouncementSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/18/2014 06:58 -0500
After weeks of relentless flashing red headline barrage whose only purpose was to force snap algo buying of the USDJPY pair time after time after time, Japan is once again out of FX algo danging carrots after moments ago Abe confirmed what everyone had known already: he called a snap election to seek a mandate for his decision to delay by 18 months a further sales-tax increase that had been planned for next year; he also said he would dissolve the lower house of parliament on Nov. 21 in preparation for an election in December, without specifying a date. Cited by the WSJ, Abe said "To ensure the success of Abenomics, I've concluded that it shouldn't be carried out next October and instead be postponed by 18 months," the prime minister told a nationally televised news conference, stressing that the additional tax burden would risk putting the economy back into deflation. "I will seek the people's judgment over our economic policy."

Dozens of militants had stormed the headquarters of the army's Second Division in the city of al-Mukalla and captured some military personnel. At least nine soldiers were wounded, the official said.
"The anti-terrorism special forces clashed with al-Qaida militants and killed a number of them," the official said. He said a number of militants were arrested, including some who had been wounded during the clashes.
The Islamist militants began their attack by blowing up a car laden with explosives near the base's gate, Saba state news agency said.
"They caused confusion because soldiers at the base thought they were being attacked by members of the Central Security apparatus," the official told Reuters earlier on Monday.
He said special forces personnel had been flown from Sanaa to Mukalla ahead of the operation to retake the base.
A resident said he heard several explosions and the army had cordoned off the area leading to the base. He said the army had evacuated residents from more than 50 houses in the area.
Yemen is battling one of the most active branches of al-Qaida, known as al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), which has carried out a number of foiled attempts to attack U.S. targets, including airliners.
Yemen flanks vital shipping lanes, and the United States sees it as a front line in its war on al-Qaida and has used drones there for years to target the group.
On Sept. 20, suspected al-Qaida militants killed dozens of Yemeni soldiers and policemen in attacks in the south, which officials described as the deadliest for more than a year.
Dozens of Yemeni security and military officers have been killed in the past two years, many by bombs planted in their cars or drive-by shootings, often blamed on AQAP or affiliated groups.
Intelligence pointing to an impending attack by AQAP prompted the United States and other Western countries to close many of their embassies temporarily in the Middle East, Africa and Asia last month.
The militants took advantage of political chaos in Yemen during the Arab Spring uprising in 2011 to seize control of some towns and surrounding areas in the south of the country. They were beaten back by Yemeni forces with assistance from the United States and scattered into small groups spread across the country's rugged, remote southern terrain.
Yemen is also facing a growing secessionist movement in the south and a rebellion by the Houthis, a group of Zaydi Shi'ite Muslims, in the north.

1.0 out of 5 stars Lassoo and flush
Sadly, my much-loved CO team came a cropper with this one. A momentary blip, soon to be rectified, but a duffer nonetheless. With a few exceptions, hardly any laughs to be had and the cast look uncomfortable with the quasi-American accents, scenarios etc. Angela Douglas is, as ever, beautiful to behold, and I smirk at Jon Pertwee's deaf sherrif cameo but that's it really...

This review is from: Carry On Cowboy [VHS] [1966] (VHS Tape)
With a more serious subtext than most Carry Ons, "Cowboy" is a real triumph for the team. Sid James is not only his humourous self but actually manages some acting as The Rumpo Kid, and Kenneth Williams is as brilliant as ever as the corrupt and self-righteous Judge Burke.
Talbot Rothwell was at the peak of his writing powers, and the film has a real depth which enables it even to pass muster when compared to its US cousin, "Blazing Saddles".
As long as you don't mind a Carry On in which half the characters get killed off, this one should please any fan of the series.

5.0 out of 5 stars The team go west!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Carry On Cowboy [DVD] [1966] (DVD)
The eleventh film in the series and a favourite for Sidney James. James is the Rumpo Kid. He enters Stodge City and takes it over. Meanwhile Judge Burke (Kenneth Williams) demands a Marshall and ends up with sanitation engineer Marshall P Knutt (Jim Dale). What follows is every tradition in Western movies being trampled all over by the team. While Williams and James play for real (with authentic American accents) the show is stolen by Charles Hawtrey as the campest Indian chief you'll ever see. It's worth buying this DVD just for his performance alone. There are series debuts here for Peter Butterworth, Bernard Bresslaw and Angela Douglas and this is Jim Dale's biggest role to date. Carry On Cowboy is also a great example of director Gerald Thomas filming a subject matter he loves. It's also obvious that Joan Sims and James are having a ball too.

5.0 out of 5 stars How The west was Lost,
sydneyemms "sydneyemms" (Leighton Buzzard) - See all my reviews
The Carry On team finally decided to spoof the Western genre in this little gem of a film. The series was really at it's peak here. The actors are playing characters rather than just turning up as personalities and the story is a fun romp through Western Cliches.
Jim Dale and Angela Douglas are excellent romantic leads but the real stars of the show are Sid James and Joan Sims who really bring the danger and sexiness of their characters to life.

4.0 out of 5 stars Classy stuff!,
Picard (USS Enterprise) - See all my reviews
This is one of the stand-out Carry-On films for a number of reasons - the amount of location filming done, the funny American twang everyone speaks in, and the perfect spoof on Western life.
Cut long story short, we see Marshal P. Knutt (Jim Dale), a drainage inspector, enter a small town and is immediately mistaken as a 'ranked' Marshall of the U.S Law. The Judge of the town realises that since no-one realises this mistake, P.Knutt should be the Marshall anyway...
Sid James plays 'Rumpo'; the rebell cow-boy of the town who as usual is up to no good. But his antic's aren't being forgotten - The absolutely gorgeous Angela Douglas play's a sassy Cow Girl secretly wants to put a bullet in his back!
The locations are fantastic, as are the sets and costumes. The only thing I've never liked about this film is the ending, which seems a little weak given the build up to the final fight. Never the less, this is a real laugh and even for '66 was a step away from traditional style comedies.

5.0 out of 5 stars What A Carry On,
Danny (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Carry On Cowboy [DVD] [1966] (DVD)
This film is a hilarious romp through the bars and bedrooms of the wild west with the carry on gang. Sid James is on top form as the rumpo kid, an outlaw who shakes up the sleepy residents of Stodge city. Kenneth Williams is the puritanical judge, and Jim Dale plays Marshall P Knutt, a hapless plumber mistankenly sent to clean up the town. This is a classic carry on and I highly recommended it.
4.0 out of 5 stars I Wonder What They Wanted?,
Bob Salter "Captain Spindrift" (Wiltshire, England) - See all my reviews
I have already reviewed western classics like "Shane", "Red River" and "The Searchers", but how can I look at myself in the mirror in the morning knowing that I have neglected that shining example of the genre "Carry on Cowboy". Whilst Sergio Leone was filming "The Good the Bad and the Ugly", Gerald Thomas was wrestling with "Carry on Cowboy", the 11th in the series and the only one to go over schedule. Filmed in the wilds of....err...Chobham Common and Pinewood Studios, the film lampoons all those westerns of yesteryear. Jim Dale plays the sanitary engineer P. Knutt, mistakenly recruited as sheriff to clean up Stodge City from the depredations of the Rumpo Kid, played by Sid James.
I will admit to having a soft spot for the 'Carry on' franchise, with its very British saucy postcard brand of humour, full of crude double entendres. Sid James gets the best lines. On one occasion he comments "I once talked peace with a Sioux, but you can't trust them. One moment its peace on and the next its peace off". After shooting three men, he says "I wonder what they wanted". All good hearty comfort food for the Carry on fan! There are lots of dodgy American accents with Kenneth Williams giving it his all as Judge Burke. Charles Hawtrey is hilarious as Chief Big Heap, and Bernard Bresslaw makes his Carry on debut as Little Heap. Jon Pertwee has a funny cameo as the blind and deaf Sheriff Earp. Percy Herbert appears as a bartender, and clearly made an impression as he went on to co star in the Cimarron TV series, and also popped up in "Captain Apache" and "Man in the Wilderness".
The film bears similarities to that other western parody "Paleface", starring Bob Hope. In that film Hope is bailed out by a fast shooting Jane Russell, and in this one Jim Dale gets help from Angela Douglas as Annie Oakley. Dismissed by some critics as puerile nonsense, who were clearly not visionaries, its lack of subtlety will not be too everyone's tastes. The makers were not out to get oscars, they were out for laughs, and these they got. Fans love them for what they are, a British institution. Far from perfect, but one of our own! Happens to be my favourite in the series, well it is a western after all.......umm sort of!

They just don't make them like this anymore..
The blu-ray picture quality is extremely crisp, I have purchased all the recent blu-ray releases of the Carry On's and they are all well presented, but cowboy has the edge. The print is bright and colorful with lots of detail that I have never noticed before.
The soundtrack is nothing to write home about but completely serviceable for a film of this vintage.

5.0 out of 5 stars One Of The Best,
Ian Phillips (Bolton, Lancashire, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Carry On Cowboy [DVD] [1966] (DVD)
Following the International success of the hilarious classic, Carry On Cleo (1964), Gerald Thomas and Peter Rogers decided another parody was what was need to keep the series vital and alive. Written by Talbot Rothwell, the team came up with another one of their very best entries in the series with Carry On Cowboy (1965).
There was always a loose structure to the plot in most Carry On films but with this one, its far more concentrated, with a surprisingly gritty, hard-edged realism behind the laughs. The action is set in the heart of Stodge City which lies in the heart of the Wild West where the notorious Rumpo Kid (Sid James) and his gang are striking fear into all the residents of the local community. Desperate to bring his deadly and violent reign to an end, Judge Burke (Kenneth Williams) hastily sends for a sheriff but through a comic misunderstanding (this is a Carry On film after all) ends up being sent a sanitary engineer with the laughably named Marshall P. Knutt (Jim Dale) who is accident-prone from the word go! Luckily for him, help is at hand in the shape of the volatile Annie Oakley (Angela Douglas) who turns up at Stodge City seeking revenge on her fathers murderer who just so happens to be the Rumpo Kid!
The merry Carry On gang all take on surprisingly realistic American accents and carry it off remarkably well with some of the cast members even approaching their roles in a deadly serious manner. Sid James is excellent as the Rumpo Kid who doesn't quite shake off his own inimitable characterisation but is certainly the only role where he plays a genuine baddie, killing people seemingly by the minute.
Kenneth Williams laughably plays his usual pompous and incompetent figure in the shape of Judge Burke whilst Charles Hawtrey is in a highly effective comic role here playing the Indian, Big Heap, who camps it up right to the end. Jim Dale is his usual bundle of nerves as the hopeless, accident-prone Marshall P. Knutt and is featured in a wonderfully staged shoot-out scene at the exciting climax of the film.
Joan Sims turns up in one of her best Carry On roles here. Joan actually said that this was her favourite role in a Carry On film and indeed in all of the period Carry On's, Joan Sims always played an integral part in the film. In Cowboy, she plays the brassy, glamorous, Belle ("my intimate friends call me Ding Dong") in a blatant Mae West characteur which she carries off superbly and plays opposite mostly to Sid James where her character quickly succumbs to Sids cocky, brash charm.
Other members of the cast in this fun entry include Bernard Bresslaw in his first Carry On apperance, playing the manically evil Indian, Little Heap, Angela Douglas who sparkles in the voluptuous shape of Annie Oakley, Peter Butterworth as the useless doctor and a small cameo from Jon Pertwee as the sheriff.
The authentic sets and costumes capture the era impeccably well. The action is fast paced as is the rollercoaster dialogue and this certainly stands as the most dark, violent Carry On with the highest death count! Still it's essential viewing and fans of this genre of comedy will love it!

4.0 out of 5 stars The Rumpo Kid and the parody supreme.,
Spike Owen "John Rouse Merriott Chard" (Birmingham, England.) - See all my reviews
When Judge Burke sends for help to rid Stodge City of The Rumpo Kid and his gang of trouble makers, he's delighted to hear that he is being sent a trained Marshall. Trouble is is that it's Marshall P. Knutt, a trained sanitary engineer.
In 1964 the "Carry On" team has ventured into their first parody of the movies with Carry On Cleo. A huge success, and arguably the best film of the lot to many fans, it prompted the Thomas/Rogers/Rothwell team to believe that movie pastiche's was the way forward for the franchise. Enter Carry On Cowboy a year later. With a knowing of the genre and all its conventions, screenwriter Talbot Rothwell produced one of the better parodies to have ever been made. The stock cartoon fervour and cheeky asides still exist, but Carry On Cowboy is a more leaner, even darker "Carry On" than any of the others film's in the series. In its own right, with out the "Carry On" name attached, it's a fine comedy, with dashes of violence and even a revenge thread running thru it {courtesy of the gorgeous Angela Douglas as Annie Oakley}. It's also one of the few film's in the series to demand a bit more from its actors outside of guffaw jinx and innuendos. Sid James, Kenneth Williams and Joan Sims rise to the challenge, happy in the knowledge that Jim Dale and Charles Hawtrey were there to grab {and get} the laughs. 8/10
5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for rainy afternoons,
feral (Tuxford, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Carry On Cowboy [1966] [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
Carry on Cowboy is a great film, although really it has no right to be; an institution as British as the Carry On series should fall flat on it's face when spoofing something as alien to it as the American West. But everyone seems to realise that their backs are against the wall and turn in performances of real quality: every line is timed and delivered to perfection. Cowboy is much more than a rainy afternoon film.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I absolutely love these invitations! They are the perfect mix of traditional, but adding a subtle touch of fun with the palm tree, raised border, and glittery ink. The only thing I wish was different was the paper. It is good quality paper but kind of boring and plain. I would have liked to pick a thicker paper if the option was available. However, the other features make the invitation very classy. I am so excited to send them out to my guests!"
"I ordered the invitations, RSVP cards and enclosure card for reception information and it all came looking better than I had even expected. I'm having a very neutral wedding so I went with the silver/gray text and it was the perfect touch. They are elegant and timeless invitations, I definitely will not be looking back in 10 years wondering what was I thinking."
"After it took me two months to finally choose the right invitation, I was absolutely delighted that these were even better than I anticipated. Since I ordered them through Wedding Paper Divas, I was a little concerned there was going to be a WPD logo on the back, but these are simply perfect! No one will ever know I ordered them online. ;)"
"This invitation, even though very simple speaks volumes for elegance, the thickness of the paper. The letters are raised and you can feel them as you move your hands across the invitation. Simply put timeless."
"I wanted a wedding invitation that was elegant and timeless. This invitation proved to be just that! The paper is very high quality and thick. The design is simple, but classy. Overall, I am incredibly pleased with this purchase and cannot wait to send them to my wedding guests!"
