Riedel's Artist System Assures Clear, Flexible Communications at The Star Performing Arts Centre in Singapore
WUPPERTAL, Germany — Sept. 26, 2013 — Riedel Communications, provider of pioneering real-time video, audio, data, and communications networks, today announced that The Star Performing Arts Centre in Singapore is using a Riedel Artist digital matrix intercom system to maintain clear, reliable communications throughout the world-class facility's 5,000-seat auditorium, function halls, and broadcast production center. The Artist system's flexibility assures speed and versatility in adapting to the communications requirements of live concerts and other productions at the stunning site.
"The Riedel Artist system has been rock-solid so far, with its power and flexibility allowing us to meet all the requirements that come our way," said Daniel Loh, technical director at The Star Performing Arts Centre. "The Artist system enables us to scale our intercom from a simple four-channel system to a full broadcast-type system with a single button press. Using AES and MADI formats, we also have been able to plan audio backup routing via the Riedel system. We appreciate the combination of versatility and reliability it brings to our communications."
The Star Performing Arts Centre is located in the award-winning Integrated Cultural, Retail and Entertainment Hub in Singapore's one-north district. Within this facility, one Artist 128 and three Artist 64 frames are connected in a fiber ring to form a single full-summing, nonblocking distributed matrix platform for intercom and the distribution of analog audio, digital audio, and Ethernet data signals. With the capacity to handle 64 MADI channels, the resulting system supports six commentary units and 47 other rack-mount and desktop Artist 1000 series control panels. The Artist matrix integrates 42 beltpacks from Riedel's Performer digital partyline product line via a Performer C44 interface. Handheld radios, used throughout the facility, become an extension of the Artist system through a RiFace interface.
The Artist system enables decentralization of the entire matrix in a cost-effective way, in turn eliminating a considerable amount of wiring and reducing installation costs. Easy, intuitive programming reduces training and service time while providing the flexibility required for rapid system changes. The system also allows for remote monitoring and troubleshooting.
Further information about Riedel and its products is available at www.riedel.net.

A Memoir
From the New York Times Bestselling author of Running With Scissors comes the story of one man trying to out-drink his memories, outlast his demons, and outrun his past.
"I was addicted to 'Bewitched' as a kid. I worshipped Darren Stevens the First. When he'd come home from work and Samantha would say, 'Darren, would you like me to fix you a drink?' He'd always rest his briefcase on the table below the mirror in the foyer, wipe his forehead with a monogrammed handkerchief and say, 'Better make it a double.'"(from Chapter Two)
You may not know it, but you've met Augusten Burroughs. You've seen him on the street, in bars, on the subway, at restaurants: a twentysomething guy, nice suit, works in advertising. Regular. Ordinary. But when the ordinary person had two drinks, Augusten was circling the drain by having twelve; when the ordinary person went home at midnight, Augusten never went home at all. Loud, distracting ties, automated wake-up calls and cologne on the tongue could only hide so much for so long. At the request (well, it wasn't really a request) of his employers, Augusten lands in rehab, where his dreams of group therapy with Robert Downey Jr. are immediately dashed by grim reality of fluorescent lighting and paper hospital slippers. But when Augusten is forced to examine himself, something actually starts to click and that's when he finds himself in the worst trouble of all. Because when his thirty days are up, he has to return to his same drunken Manhattan life--and live it sober. What follows is a memoir that's as moving as it is funny, as heartbreaking as it is true. Dry is the story of love, loss, and Starbucks as a Higher Power.

Would you take a tour of McDonald's kitchen for Kipp?
It's a "fabrication" says McDonald's about a video showing one of its Saudi branches using a washing machine to wash lettuce. Are you up for visiting McDonald's kitchen for Kipp?
January 16, 2012 2:31 by Precious de Leon
This Sunday, Kipp wrote an article that contained an open letter to the Pizza Hut UAE management from a Kipp reader who had a bad experience with one of the chain's branches.
Using that letter as the starting point, we went into a discussion about the need for the fastfood industry in the Middle East to step up in terms of responding to customer complaints, as well as in delivering both good products/services and acceptable customer service.
In that same article, Kipp embedded a Youtube video that claims to show a Saudi branch of McDonald's using a washing machine to wash its vegetables. Here's the allegedly fabricated video:
While Kipp is yet to hear from Pizza Hut's management about the open letter, McDonald's has contacted Kippreport and issued a statement in response to the video. Here is the statement:
McDonald's would like to point out that this video is a staged fabrication and in no way represents the manner in which lettuce is handled in our restaurants. McDonald's KSA sources its lettuce from reputable KSA-based supplier Del Monte. The lettuce is washed, sanitized, and packed in the supplier's purpose-built facility, then delivered to our restaurants daily in sealed, ready to use bags, and therefore requires no washing or drying in our kitchens whatsoever.
McDonald's guarantees high standards in all its processes. Our food preparation procedures ensure the safety and quality of our products and guarantee our high standards are not compromised. We undergo regular monitoring by local authorities and enforce stringent food safety standards and regulations that are in line with their requirements.
McDonald's prides itself on its transparency. With our Open Door Program, we open our doors and welcome you to tour our kitchen to take a close look at the quality standards of our products and procedures. This is an open invitation for those interested in learning more about our kitchen at any point in time.
To schedule a tour or for more information please visit: www.mcdonaldsarabia.com.
Now while the video was supposedly shot in Saudi Arabia, Kipp jumped at the opportunity at checking out one of McDonald's kitchens in the UAE and making a video of our own of just how a McDonald's kitchen operates. But while the company was up for the visit, they've informed us that video and photography were not allowed inside the kitchen. At least not yet, they said.
We were not too pleased to hear this, to say the least. But Kipp still has to give McDonald's some props for responding relatively quickly to the video and to our article mentioning it. Also commendable is their ongoing Open Door program—even though we're still probably going to hold out a bit longer on a visit until we can bring our cameras into their kitchen.
But all is not lost. Our cogs started turning and we thought since the Open Door program is supposed to be open to the public, why not get a Kipp reader a chance to visit the kitchen and tell us all about it? So, if you are interested in visiting a McDonald's kitchen, armed with even just a voice recorder, then contact us at [email protected], or on our Twitter @kipp_report or through the Kippreport Facebook page.
If you're not interested in the tour but you have an experience with a fastfood chain or a restaurant that has left a bad taste in your mouth, send us your stories at the same address and contact details above. We'll be sure to share it to the world and perhaps get some of these companies a chance to redeem themselves or clarify the situation. You hear that Pizza Hut? Huh? Are you listening?

Filmmaking Team DPYX Creating The Debra Hill Documentary
In their first feature film collaboration, the team of DPYX (Marcy Boyle and Rachel Holzman) joined with Nick Principe to bring us the exciting thriller Nobody Can Cool. Boyle and Holzman are organizing DPYX to now create The Debra Hill Documentary.
Debra Hill is the godmother of indie film, producing such greats as Halloween, The Fog, The Dead Zone, Escape from New York, and The Fisher King amongst others. DPYX is producing the documentary to celebrate her incredible career.
Principal photography, which will include some incredible interviews with movie makers like John Carpenter, Lynda Obst, and Stacey Sher, will begin in January 2015. For up-to-the-minute information on the project, "like" The Debra Hill Documentary on Facebook and follow The Debra Hill Documentary on Twitter (@debrahilldoc).
From the Press Release
Filmmaking team DPYX (Marcy Boyle and Rachel Holzman) will write, direct, and produce The Debra Hill Documentary, a feature documentary about the late legendary filmmaker. Lotti Pharriss Knowles of Weirdsmobile Productions will executive produce. This will be the first film about Debra Hill, and by telling her story, the filmmakers hope to preserve an important piece of the empowering history of women in Hollywood.
Said DPYX's Marcy Boyle, "Debra Hill is a hero of ours. Not only did she break in to the industry on her own, through intelligence, talent, and tenacity, but she produced so many films that have become part of popular culture."
"We want to highlight and celebrate Hill's achievements so the next generation of filmmakers can be inspired to move forward on the path blazed by women like her—and so the industry can be reminded that women have been instrumental in some of the greatest success stories in the film business. Debra Hill's films have generated over a billion dollars in box office receipts," DPYX's Rachel Holzman noted.
Hill's friend and former producing partner Lynda Obst said, "I am overwhelmed with emotion about the documentary being made on the life and work of Debra Hill by DPYX and executive producer Lotti Pharriss Knowles. I was lucky enough to have been her partner in Hill/Obst productions, where we joyously made movies from Adventures in Babysitting (our first) to The Fisher King (our last)—and she taught me everything she knew. Debra was the consummate producer, and this film will show generations of women and men what the right stuff truly is, as I saw it and lived it first-hand."
"Debra Hill was the godmother of indie filmmaking. She taught me that there was no above or below the line, that we were all one crew trying to make our days and make something great," Stacey Sher said of her producing mentor.
And John Carpenter recalls, "Debra Hill was a trailblazer, a tough as nails female producer in a man's world."
About Debra Hill
Debra Hill was born November 10, 1950, in Haddonfield, New Jersey. She began her career as a script supervisor in the 1970s, including on John Carpenter's Assault on Precinct 13. She teamed with Carpenter on his next feature, Halloween, as his co-writer and producer. After the extraordinary success of that film, Hill became a key player in a wave of trailblazing women who broke barriers in the male-dominated film industry. She produced notable genre films such as The Fog, Escape from New York, The Dead Zone, and Halloween I, II & III; comedies with cult followings such as Clue, Adventures in Babysitting, and Big Top Pee Wee; and the critically-acclaimed, award-winning film The Fisher King. Hill was a mentor to many current film industry heavyweights, and her untimely death in 2005 at age 54 was a great loss to those who knew and loved her and to Hollywood as a whole.

Death Has Arrived! The Lord Supreme of the Underworld Joins Sideshow's Court of the Dead
We've been talking about Sideshow Collectibles' awesome Court of the Dead figures for several months now, and finally Big D himself, Death, has made an appearance. Read on for your first look at the Lord Supreme of the Underworld.
Product Description:
The ruler and creator of the Underworld, Death is the son of Priam and Abraxiel, brought into existence as a last act of the Lords of Heaven and Hell before the creation of mankind.
Though his will is absolute within his realm, Death spends a great deal of his time pursuing, studying, and experimenting with fragments of the soul energy known as etherea. While Heaven and Hell squander this energy to fuel their eternal battle, it is Death alone who recognizes the true power. It is with this knowledge that Death builds his Court and his kingdom, a kingdom that balances chaos and order, lightness and dark. A kingdom built upon the foundation of one unspoken principle – Rise. Conquer. Rule.

Split (2014, Short)
Starring Austin Hayden, Shian Denovan
Directed by Andy Stewart
One morning, an unnamed young man (Hayden) awakens to discover a gigantic, pus-filled boil growing on his chest and multiple text messages on his phone from a worried friend desperate to get in touch with him. As he staggers around his flat, we come to see bright memories of everyday activities that the man enjoyed with his girlfriend (Denovan) – their vivid visual representation evident of a happier time in comparison to the darker, grey outlook on his current activities.
It would appear that something bad has happened, and it's cost him his relationship. Tossing and turning in the night, he's forced to run to the bathroom to vomit, where he subsequently gives the boil on his chest a squeeze – to expectedly gooey ends.
This proves to be the beginning of his breakdown, as his affliction gathers pace resulting in graphic, assured manner, sending him down the road of total decomposition.
What stands out most about Split is the physical effects work. It's absolutely stellar. Grotesque, squirm-inducing, and exceptionally realistic-looking, the makeup and prosthetics are genuinely toe-curling. As his condition worsens, the man finds his fingertips swollen into bulbous, pus-filled balls which squirt their contents when pressured, his fingernails come off, and in one particularly hideous sequence an entire section of skin comes sloughing away.
Suffice to say, this is not a film for the weak of stomach.
And that is not an idle warning.
Visually, Split is very well shot and edited but does seem to drag out a few sequences to unnecessary length. This is perhaps partly due to wanting to get the most out of Hayden's convincingly tortured and pained performance, but combined with the intended grim tone, it leads to the odd moment of standstill pacing, where the need for something new becomes evident just slightly too earlier than that arrives.
Still, there's a genuine story to be found here amidst the astounding grotesquery, and it allows for a few different ways to approach what happens. Could the unfortunate soul have contracted something with his philandering? Has squeezing the boil and subsequently lying around like a recluse led to the mother of all untreated staph infections?
Of course, most effective (and intentional) is the approach of a metaphorical treatise on the nature and effect of guilt and regret, reinforced admirably by a sombre, minimalist score and convincingly pained and distraught performance by Hayden.
Dealing with the same kind of content as 2012's odious and grubby Thanatomorphose in a much superior manner, Split is a very strong entry by Stewart and co. It's pro-grade stuff, and the effects work is staggering. Just don't watch it if you're feeling queasy or eating a meal. Seriously.

Monster Motors Roar Back to Life at IDW in February
Classic monsters meet classics cars this coming February when IDW Publishing releases Monster Motors: The Curse of Minivan Helsing, a two-part follow-up to this past summer's Monster Motors, the acclaimed debut by Brian Lynch, Nick Roche, and Leonard O'Grady.
"Monster Motors is a world I love coming back to," said Lynch. "Combining everyone's favorite monsters (and, with this story, monster hunters) with the coolest vehicles originally made me say, 'Wow! If I were a kid, I'd love to see this.' But as the world gets fleshed out and we start figuring out each Monster Motors' personality, I realized this was a story anyone can enjoy, no matter their age. It's got tons of action, it's funny, it's scary, and thanks to Nick and Len, it's the best looking book you'll read all month."
Check out the synopsis and artwork below, and if you missed Monster Motors when it was released, you can grab the Kindle version from the EvilShop below.
Genius mechanic Vic Frankenstein and his assistant iGOR (interactive Garage Operations Robot) have moved to the quaint town of Transylvania, Kentucky. But this quaint town has a bit of a problem: It's becoming overrun by Monster Motors! Vampire cars suck gas from their victims, and lunar-powered werewolf vehicles grow fangs and claws when the moon is full! And that's just for starters.
Someone has to keep them all in check. Enter MINIVAN HELSING: four-wheeled monster-hunter. It is his job to hunt down the Monster Motors and bring them to justice. His new target? Vic and his Frankenride, a monstrous truck made from the parts of fallen cars and trucks.

Exclusive: Ana Lily Amirpour Talks A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night and What's Next
I wasn't sure what to expect before speaking to indie-darling director Ana Lily Amirpour. Not that I don't do my due diligence, but I try to bring a fresh, uncluttered and unbiased mind to most interviews (preferably, mine). Judging from her "Iranian vampire spaghetti western" called A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, I might have guessed she was the personification of Winona Ryder's character in Beetlejuice.
In fact, Amirpour wonders if such a preconceived notion doesn't indeed precede her – "I'm always nervous to talk to a hardcore genre type," she told me, first thing, "because I'm like, 'Oh, they probably just think [my movie is] boring hipster, emo, arty shit."
Well, the movie is emo and arty, but whether it is boring and all the rest will be up to broad audiences when it's released later this week. So far, the movie has only been shown to erudite festival filmgoers, and it's rating 100% fresh on the good old Tomato-Meter over at RottenTomatoes.com. That's just one source, Amirpour points out with a laugh, "because if you look at our trailer on YouTube… well, if anybody still believes that there could be world peace, just look at the comments on YouTube and check those out because people are animals!"
Love it or loathe it, A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (review) is a singular achievement in that it's quite original, especially coming from a feature first-timer. Mixing the lush beauty of 60s and 70s vampire art films a la Jean Rollin and Jess Franco, but with the cool, calculated exactitude of someone influenced by Jean-Luc Goddard and Jim Jarmusch, Amirpour still puts something elusively herself into it as well.
Since this movie seems to be coming from such a personal wellspring of artistic inspiration, I asked her if she might someday be open to directing a film someone else wrote. "At this point I have so many things that I'm interested in, and that's coming from stuff I'm generating myself," she replied. So it's not going to happen soon, but she added, "I don't think that that's a limitless supply. I don't know what to head for, there's so many interesting things. It's not like we're inventing things that aren't created. We're just recombining things and telling stories in unfamiliar ways that are familiar, though, at the same time. So I'm totally open to that. I think I would have to make it my own. I am a writer. And so I think things have to become your own anyway. But I absolutely would be open to that."
Here's more of our quick chat:
Dread Central: Your DP's [Lyle Vincent] work is very noir on the film. What was it specifically about him that made you want him to shoot for you?
Ana Lily Amirpour: I was getting such a lot of cinematography reels and stuff so I was looking at a bunch of different people's work. He had a great series of short films called 'Bright Falls,' and when I watched them, I felt that they were very Lynchian – they reminded me a lot of Lynch from 'Twin Peaks' in particular. And I love David Lynch so I was really into that. Then we met over Skype because he's New York-based and I'm in L.A.
I've worked with a lot of different DP's on a lot of short films and music videos so I kind of had this promiscuous DP thing going on, you know, and I feel like it's the most important thing because there's a lot of people that can make things look pretty, but I think film has [an] inner beauty, and that really comes from the soul of people working together in a certain way. I had this immediate chemistry with him, and we are like soulmates, in a way, creatively. We have a lot of similar cinematic fascinations. We both love Lynch and Sergio Leone and Scorsese, and I spent just hours and hours and hours on Skype with him talking about films, and I just knew he was the one.
DC: Sounds like you might have a collaborator now.
ALA: Yeah. He's shooting my next film, which I'm doing in the spring.
DC: Oh good. What genre is it?
ALA: It's in color and English. It's a desert-set, Texan wasteland and then we're in a desert and it's kind of a psychedelic Road Warrior. It's like a post-apocalyptic, cannibal love story. It's very violent and very romantic.
DC: Sounds sort of like, maybe El Topo?
ALA: Oh my God. Yes. It's like El Topo meets Dirty Dancing.
DC: I love it already.
Kino Lorber will release A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night in New York and Los Angeles on November 21st with national expansion to follow.
Directed by Ana Lily Amirpour, A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night stars Sheila Vand, Arash Marandi, Dominic Rains, Marshall Manesh, Mozhan Marnó, and Milad Eghbali.
Strange things are afoot in Bad City. The Iranian ghost town, home to prostitutes, junkies, pimps, and other sordid souls, is a bastion of depravity and hopelessness where a lonely vampire stalks its most unsavory inhabitants. But when boy meets girl, an unusual love story begins to blossom… blood red.

Jack-O'-Lantern Attacks in New Goosebumps Image
I don't know about you, but I cannot wait to see Goosebumps up on the big screen. With next year's movie set to unleash many of the most iconic monsters from the books, it looks to be a real treat for longtime fans, and on tap for you today is your very first look at one of those monsters!
The brand spankin' new image shows off a titular villain from the book Rise of the Jack-O'-Lanterns, and it came to our attention courtesy of Jamie Kelman, one of the effects artists who helped build it.
"I sculpted and painted this Jack-O's head and hands for Steve Prouty's FUSION FX," wrote Kelman. "He walks on stilts– at 10 feet high, he was really imposing and cool looking. Steve Prouty also put some bright red lights in his eyes, maybe we will see that effect in the movie next summer?"
Check out the photo below, along with the other stills from the film that we've thus far been provided with!
Jack Black, Ken Marino, Amy Ryan, Odeya Rush, Ryan Lee, Halston Sage, Timothy Simons, Amanda Lund, and Dylan Minnette star.
In the film, directed by Rob Letterman, Black portrays famed children's horror writer R.L. Stine, whose monsters, it turns out, are actually real. When they escape from his books and attack an unsuspecting town, it's up to Stine and two teens to get the monsters back into their stories.
Goosebumps, which comes from a screenplay by Darren Lemke and Mike White, is produced by Neal H. Moritz through his Original Film banner and Deborah Forte of Scholastic Entertainment.
Look for it in theatres on August 7, 2015.
Upset about moving from a big city to a small town, teenager Zach Cooper (Dylan Minnette) finds a silver lining when he meets the beautiful girl, Hannah (Odeya Rush), living right next door. But every silver lining has a cloud, and Zach's comes when he learns that Hannah has a mysterious dad who is revealed to be R. L. Stine (Jack Black), the author of the bestselling Goosebumps series. It turns out that there is a reason why Stine is so strange… he is a prisoner of his own imagination – the monsters that his books made famous are real, and Stine protects his readers by keeping them locked up in their books. When Zach unintentionally unleashes the monsters from their manuscripts and they begin to terrorize the town, it's suddenly up to Stine, Zach, and Hannah to get all of them back in the books where they belong.

AFM 2014: Ebola Zombie Flicks to Infect Screens None Too Soon
Ah, like a ripped-from-the-headlines episode of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit," you just knew it would take no time flat for a slew of ebola zombie flicks to emerge. But is it too soon?
The American Film Market saw the appearance of two films (although one is technically a cheat) designed to capitalize on both the oversaturation of zombie flicks and the media's "Ebolageddon 2015" news coverage.
For the record, if there isn't a movie titled Ebolageddon before the end of next year, I'll be stunned.
Wild Eye Releasing struck first with a film simply entitled Ebola Zombies. Two weeks before AFM it was entitled SARS Zombies. Honestly, who remembers SARS? That non-pocalypse was so five years ago – longer, actually. In fact, I'm not 100% certain, but I think this movie may actually be a retitling of the Asian movie SARS Wars from 2004. I can't tell because they all look alike to me. Asian zombie movies, I mean, not actual Asians themselves. Stop being racist!
Anyway, here's the trailer for Ebola Zombies, written and directed by, ummm, people.
Then there's the British flick Plan Z, in which an ebola outbreak leads to the dead rising. The trailer for this rather generic looking zombie movie written by, directed by, and starring Stuart Brennan makes no mention of ebola whatsoever. It's currently in post and will debut at the Berlin market in February.
According to Deadline, the production company behind Plan Z is purposefully going out of its way not to connect the film to the 24-hour news cycle's societal death knell of the moment out of fear of being labeled insensitive.
Honestly, if you're concerned with being labeled insensitive, you probably shouldn't be making horror movies.
For more be sure to hit up the link to Deadline's story, which also includes a teaser for Iron Sky: The Coming Race, the sequel to 2012′s Iron Sky about Nazis on the moon. This time around Sarah Palin destroys the world as we know it and then descends to a secret netherworld to report to a dino-riding Hitler. Seriously.
Plan Z Synopsis:
Craig has always thought about what he might do in a zombie apocalypse. When a deadly outbreak of Ebola erupts, his planning becomes more serious. As the virus mutates and makes the dead rise again, he must put his plan to action. Barricading himself in his house, his plan quickly unravels, and he must adapt and decide on a new and more aggressive course of action. A Plan Z.

Demon House – Director Found for Ammons Tale of Terror
We've been reporting on the strange Ammons house case for quite some time, beginning with the occurrences themselves, then "Ghost Adventures" star Zak Bagans buying the home after the family fled, and now a director is set to bring the tale to the screen.
Deadline is reporting that Lee Daniels (The Butler, The Paperboy, Precious) will be directing Demon House for Relativity Media. Bagans himself is also putting together a documentary of the same name of his experiences within the home. No word yet if both projects will retain the same title, but given the subject matter, it would make sense to have them as companion pieces.
The film is based on Latoya Ammons and her family, whose life rights made this film possible. They claim to have been victims of a demonic possession that has spanned over two years and counting. Ammons and her family have received international media attention for their accounts, which have been witnessed and documented by the Department of Child Services, the Gary (IN) Police Department, and hospital staff.
The experience began with unusual occurrences in her home over two years ago, including swarms of flies around her porch in the winter and unexplainable creaking sounds in her basement. The events progressed to possessive incidents including her oldest daughter unconsciously levitating above her bed and medical staff witnessing her middle son gliding backward on the floor, wall, and ceiling.
According to Relativity, the DCS case manager witnessed her youngest son growling with his teeth showing and eyes rolled back, locking his hands around his older brother's throat with no recollection of the incident. Initial psychological exams and exorcism attempts failed to provide explanation or solution for the bizarre events.
Stay tuned.

USA Network Gives a Pilot Order to Supernatural Drama Evil Man
A new "supernatural drama" is possibly heading our way as the USA Network has closed a deal with CBS TV Studios on a pilot order for "Evil Man," starring Dallas Roberts ("The Walking Dead," The Grey) and Clifton Collins, Jr. (Pacific Rim).
Per Deadline, the project, which Universal Cable Productions will co-produce, was written by Daniel Taplitz (Breakin' All the Rules). Gary Fleder ("The River," Homefront) will direct.
Taplitz and Fleder will executive produce alongside CBS TV Studios-based Eric and Kim Tannenbaum as well as Mary Beth Basile. Filming is slated to begin in early December in Vancouver.
"Evil Man" follows Harry Killas (Roberts; below left), an upstanding, middle-class family man whose life is turned upside down when he is approached by a frighteningly powerful entity and commanded to kill "evil men" or see his family — along with his city — utterly destroyed. However, the gleeful psycho who is meant to be his first target instead begins teaching him how to carry out his new destiny.
Collins (below right) will play Lazlo Kirk, the profoundly evil former war criminal with magnetic charm and a deep, unpredictable violent streak who forces himself into Harry's life on a twisted mission of personal redemption.
"This supernatural drama is a symbolic tale of good versus evil set in the everyday modern world," said Jackie de Crinis, EVP Original Programming, USA Network. "It is a highly relatable story that begs the question of just how far we would go to protect our families."
Look for more as it comes!

From the Press Release:
Discover the secret of what she wants when Annabelle arrives onto Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD, and Digital HD on January 13, 2015, from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. Reuniting the filmmakers behind 2013's hugely successful supernatural thriller The Conjuring, Annabelle is the terrifying story of where it all began as Annabelle comes to life.

On one horrific night, their home is invaded by members of a satanic cult, who violently attack the couple. Spilled blood and terror are not all they leave behind.

Directed by Robert Letterman. Screenplay by Darren Lemke. Story by Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski. Based on the Goosebumps book series published by Scholastic and written by R.L. Stine. Produced by Deborah Forte and Neal H. Moritz.

The Conjuring 2 Haunts Summer 2016
What more can be said about James Wan's The Conjuring? It was fun, scary, and exactly what the horror genre needed when it came out. Now that Wan has officially signed on to direct the sequel (thank the video gods), the movie has landed a release date!
Look for The Conjuring 2 in theatres on June 10, 2016.
Much like the original film, the sequel will delve back into the case files of paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. No word yet on which of their many noted investigations will be showcased, but with Wan back in the driver's seat, expect it to be scary as hell.

Elmwood Gardens residents to resume weekly walks in Manchester
Only snow or rain will keep the small group of residents from gathering at 5 pm. in front of 85 Trahan St. for the hour-long walk.
"There is this perception, that because we are low income, that we don't care, or shouldn't care, about our community," said resident Andra Candow. "We are proud of our neighborhood. There are so many people from around the world here, and walking the neighborhood gives us the opportunity to reach out and get to know them. To be able to say that we are friends, neighbors. We are not just a bunch of people who happen to live on the same street or in the same building, we are a 'village.' Our community walks are just one of the many ways that our leadership group shows its dedication and commitment to the neighborhood that we all call home."
The purpose of the walks is to build relationships, increase safety and create community in a development home to diverse cultures, backgrounds and ethnicities.
The walks began two years ago as an offshoot of the Resident Leadership Training Program conducted by the Granite State Organizing Project.
Along the walks, the leaders will share informnation with residents about upcoming events, pass out a community calendar, invite residents to help in planning an after school homework club, field trips for children and more.

"When I was growing up, these were the stories I knew about my heritage," she said.
She also said that when her mother and father wanted to get married, her father's family said no because "my mother was part Delaware and part Cherokee."
"This is my family, this is who I am, and it's not going to change," said Warren.
That's how Elizabeth Warren responded in her first debate with Scott Brown, when he attacked her for having a history of identifying herself as Native American in a law directory, back in the 1990s.
The Brown campaign originally raised the issue last spring. It didn't seem to help him then. One poll in May
showed that a plurality of respondents said they believed Warren was telling the truth about her claims to be part Native American while a clear majority said they didn't believe the development was a significant story. Voters responding to the poll were split when it came to the question of whether she benefited from listing herself as a minority.
A plurality is the largest number among multiple choices. To be precise, in the May 23 Suffolk University poll (which found that 72% of likely voters in the Massachusetts Senate race knew about the controversy), 49% of those voters thought Warren's claim was true; 28% thought it was false; and 23% were unsure.

|THE VOICE Contestant Brian Fuente's Debut EP '1983' to Release Tomorrow, 10/16
October 15, 2012
|Related: Brian Fuente
Nashville singer, songwriter, musician BRIAN FUENTE has released a new music video for "Sidelined," a focus track off his newly released debut solo EP 1983. The video was unveiled November 6 on BRIAN's newly re-launched website, BrianFuente.com. Check out the video below!
"It's truly exciting to release the first music video in support my new solo project," BRIAN shares. "In my opinion, this is more than just an average music video; it's a beautiful motion picture. Up and coming director Derek Pearson really nailed it!"
1983 pays homage to that decade of undeniably addictive pop with a modern twist. Propelled by BRIAN's rich, at times gritty, vocals sung with an abundance of passion and conviction, 1983 is sure to please his ever-growing group of loyal fans--over 4,000 Facebook fans and over 5,000 Twitter followers--while drawing in new fans and further establishing BRIAN's place in music.
In 2007, BRIAN found his way to Nashville hoping to be seen and heard by the industry that mattered most. He embedded himself in the music scene and put together his first Nashville band, Newmatic. The band gained an increasingly loyal audience within the area but BRIAN was determined to show the world what he was all about and in the summer of 2011, he auditioned for the hit TV reality competition "The Voice." His version of Grace Potter's "Paris" earned him a spot on Team Blake (Shelton) and the chance to work alongside Shelton and Kelly Clarkson.

ChadS.Nov 23, 2007What happens in Pakistan, stays in Pakistan. When Mohammad(Charles Daniel Sandoval) encourages Ahmad(Ahmad Razvi) that he resume his music career, you can imagine the direction in which "Man Push Cart" would go had this film not been an homage to Italian neorealism(there's a specific reason as to why Noemi(Leticia Dolera) is from Barcelona). But this filmmaker knows that you don't crossover from Pakistan. Mohammad isn't naive. He refers to Ahmad as "this Pakistani guy" even though the immigrant is Pakistani himself. "Man Push Cart" nails the peculiar divide that exists between successful and unsuccessful men from the third world. Although "Man Push Cart" seems gratuitous in its need to be unrelentingly downbeat, the film is nevertheless a thoughtful character-driven story about how dogged perseverance in a racially hierarchical society, you suspect, often has no payoff if you don't hail from a westernized society.… Full Review »

Children's LiteratureThe streets are alive with the sound of city life in poet Hubbell's celebration of people, places, and things that children can find in the cement jungle. Her free verse and rhymes evoke the varied rhythms of varied people who crowd together in a city and the continuous movement that urban living always brings with it. Sadness (a friend gone away) and joy (an open hydrant in summer) mix in her poems, but, more importantly, imaginative thinking is present everywhere she directs the young reader's gaze. At times, even the shape of a poem on the page gives it substance or makes it almost physically jump off the page. Hubbell loves to plant words like seeds to see how they grow, so she couldn't have chosen better drawings than the perky and playful ones by Cricket artist Flavin to water her thought-provoking words. The poet's message that where life abounds, so does hope, runs through the whole book. Her poems' simplicity (and profundity) will encourage kids to try penning their own—or at least see everything around them with new eyes. That alone makes this volume a valuable stimulant to creative thought and expression in the hands of an inner-city teacher—or any instructor or parent who wants a child to dig deeper in his search for meaning. 2001, Marshall Cavendish,

So Cuban and Spanish cultures have had a love-hate relationship throughout the centuries, but their culinary traditions at least come together at Las Culebrinas, where an extensive menu features specialties from both sides of the Atlantic. This presents a bit of a dilemma: Do you opt for the Cuban mainstays you've come to love, like ropa vieja (sautéed shredded beef stew), moros (rice and beans), maduros (plantains), and yuca (cassava), or do you nibble tapas while you wait for a steaming pan of paella for two to arrive at the table? If you're the adventurous type looking for something truly exotic, something you can tell stories about later, then perhaps the decision will be much easier. Choose from any one of several eccentric specialties: octopus Galician style, rabbit in garlic sauce, frog's legs, crocodile medallions French style, or deep-fried breaded beef brains. (Oh my!) Even the chicken is interesting here: You can have it breaded with Kellogg's cereal and served with honey-mustard sauce, or grilled and bathed in an orange-peach yogurt sauce. And since kids will vehemently oppose all of the above, thankfully there is a children's menu featuring fish sticks, chicken fingers, and a sirloin steak. The only problem you'll likely encounter at Las Culebrinas, where families gather around large tables to enjoy abundant portions of quality food, is indecision.

How It Works
Our advanced laser targets tattoo ink, shatters it, causing the pigment to gradually fade over a series of treatments. Treatments are spaced 4-6 weeks apart. The number of treatments you'll need depends on a variety of factors, including location, density, colors and skin type. Typically our estimates range from as few as 3 to 10 or more.
Most treatments last just a minute or so and feel like a rubber band repeatedly snapping on the skin. While not a great feeling, it's very tolerable. We also utilize the Zimmer Chiller that numbs but the skin before, during, and after treatment for minimal discomfort.
That's just a quick overview. Our team is here to answer any questions and will provide a full overview during a free consultation.
