Ovation Premieres SONG BY SONG: DOLLY PARTON, 3/10
Following the success of its limited series Song by Song: Johnny Cash last fall, Ovation is launching Song by Song as an ongoing original series. Kicking off the series this year will be SONG BY SONG: Dolly Parton, premiering March 10 at 8:00 pm ET.
SONG BY SONG: Dolly Parton will feature an exclusive interview with Dolly herself as she shares her most intimate memories and stories about the inspiration and impact of six of her most popular songs in six dedicated episodes.
"Country music is a quintessential American art form. Dolly Parton's singing and songwriting talent has made her a music icon and she has inspired countless other musical artists. We would be remiss if we did not include a tribute to Dolly in our popular SONG BY SONG series," said Robert Weiss, Chief Creative Officer for Ovation.
Having written over 650 songs and selling more than 100 million albums, Dolly Parton is an American inspiration. The recipient of numerous Grammy Awards and the Lifetime Achievement Award, Country Music's Entertainer of the Year Award, two Oscar nominations, a Tony Award nomination and the prestigious Kennedy Center Honor, Dolly Parton's successful career has transcended music, television, theatre and film.
In addition to Dolly Parton, the series will also feature interviews with many artists, colleagues and friends who have known and worked with her over the years, including Lily Tomlin, Kristin Chenoweth, Carrie Underwood, Kellie Pickler, Miley Cyrus, Mac Davis, Miranda Lambert, Kenny Rogers, Vince Gill, Brad Paisley, Janis Ian, record producer Kent Wells, recording executive Jody Williams, record producer Steve Buckingham, Dolly's band leader Michael Davis, director Duncan Tucker, singer/songwriters Lindi Ortega, Marty Stuart, Mindy Smith, Brandi Carlile and Jim Lauderdale, the Bluegrass group Grascals and biographer Alanna Nash. The series is narrated by Ray Van Ness.

Zenga undeterred by league break
Break for international and cup matches won't disrupt leaders' form, says Al Nasr coach

Dubai: A fortnight's break in the Etisalat Pro-League won't disrupt league leaders Al Nasr's winning rhythm according to coach Walter Zenga, who intends to emerge from the sabbatical with renewed vigour.
The Blue Wave lead the table with seven points from three games, having beaten ten-man Al Shabab 4-2 in Al Mamza on Friday.
A Guiseppe Mascara brace, book-ending strikes by Nashat Akram and Bruno Correa, gave Al Nasr victory in a hard-fought Dubai derby.
International friendlies and Etisalat Cup matches will fill the void in the meantime, but Zenga isn't concerned that it will wreck momentum.
"I look at the positives instead of the negatives," said Zenga, who has taken Al Nasr to second and third in the league in the last two years as he bids to end the club's 27-year wait for silverware.
"I can recover my players in this time off and we can take to training with smiles and happiness knowing that we are in first place.
"They don't need to feel the pressure of being first, only the beauty of enjoying their football and the joy, pleasure and happiness we can get from our game."
Zenga added: "I told the players at the end of the Al Shabab match that the real work starts now. Last year it took us the first three games to get started — we were bottom of the league but we finished second. This year we've started well, but if we are working for first we need to start the hard work now. We have not made a mistake in the first three games but there are still 21 matches until the end.
"We've turned the negatives of last season into positives for this year. We're concentrating on the mentality and psychology of the players — and they are growing up."
Al Shabab coach Marcos Paqueta praised Al Nasr for their victory on Friday but also rued his side's bad luck.
"Al Nasr are very strong in defence," he said. "They close their ranks and play quick on the counter. This is going to make the mission difficult for any team that faces them. Despite this we could create chances, it's just that didn't translate into goals.
"It just wasn't our day. A lot of factors during the game made it difficult for us. We started well in the first quarter but mistakes meant we received two goals. This meant the team had to go in search of goals, leaving space behind.
"Even though we were a man down we tried. We got one goal back. But playing against a technical team like Al Nasr made it difficult to score. I congratulate my players for fighting the whole game and never surrendering."

I love MAC paintpots for eyeshadow bases they have never creased on me and they help to bring out the colors in my eyeshadow. I have Painterly Paintpot and Soft Ocre Paintpot. Painterly is just a bit too pinky toned for me and Soft Ocre is a little too yellowy toned for me haha so I alternate between the two, the only downside to Painterly that I have found is that if you apply too much it can get a bit greasy and make all your eyeshadow colors blend together into one color. I don't have this problem when I just use a light layer to cover my lid and brow bone so this is a great base as long as you use it lightly. =]
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I have a love/hate relationship towards this product. The MAC M.A. recommended this to me as a base to help STOP creasing. However, this product works just fine for me, nothing spectacular. It tends to dry really quick making the distribution of the product harder to blend (over the eyelids). Also, it does tend to crease, depending on the eyeliner/eyeshawdow I'm wearing. Needless to say, it does a great job at picking up your eyeshawdows making the color pop more! I don't think I'll be repurchasing.

This is a great base! I use UDPP, Clinique Touch Tint & MAC Paint as well. I've been trying out several other bases (Artdeco, Alverde) and used many cream eye shadows and liners as bases - but this one is really different.
As one of the reviewer said, if you want a nude or neutral eye - this is it.
I am NW 20, and this is as close to my skin tone as possible.
I use a synthetic brush for applying it.
This is one of my favourite bases. If I'm going to do a neutral or nude coloured eye, I actually prefer painterly to UDPP. The texture of paintpots is great, they're smooth a creamy. This colour is actually quite opaque, which I like.
It's close to my skin tone so it's great for just throwing on alone, on days where I'm getting ready in a mad rush and don't have time for much else. It evens out my skin and makes me a look a little more awake than I usually am.
I doubt this would be a great colour for those with darker skintones or really warm undertones, since it's pinky toned, but for me, being cool toned and fair, it's a great multi-functional colour.
This is a great product, but the texture is a bit dry. When I apply it to my lids it basically erases all the veins and splotches and evens everything out. It makes for a nice base, better thanTFSI. It takes awhile to apply, needs several layers. I definitely need to apply a light layer of eye cream before Painterly. I am NW20 and this color suits me, more cool toned pinkish.
I found the best brush for applying is my Bare Escentuals concealer brush because it is wider and does a good job. After I use this PP, my eyeshadows that I apply over it look more beautiful than if I had just used TFSI or nothing at all so this is a lovely product.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I am so glad that I finally decided to try this paint pot. I have been using a combo of UDPP and MAC Paint in Bare Canvas. I have really oily eyelids and I would find towards the end of the day, my shadows would start to really crease. So, I decided to try Painterly. It is a great base for shadows!
I am NW25 and this totally evens out all discoloration and redness on my skin. I have been using it for about a month and all day long my shadow stays PUT! It is creamy and very easy to blend and apply to the lid. I am still using UDPP, just because my lids are really oily. This combo really works!
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is a great eye shadow base. It keeps your eyeshadows from creasing and even neutralizes any discoloration on your lids. Easy to blend and very creamy. My favorite paint pot for sure.
More reviews by gurluwant2love24
This is the closest eye shadow primer I think I'll EVER like compared to both UDPP, TFSI, etc. Number one, I have super super OILY eyelids that will crease no matter what. I crease a tiny bit using this, but it's easily removable just to "blend the crease" out with a blender brush once it appears, other than that I'm good to go.
Here is how I think these SHOULD be applied to get the most effect out of them with the least amount of creasing:
Make sure you have a brand new pot, because that will make the biggest difference. Do NOT use your fingers to apply, as it will only add excess oily to your eyelids to promote the creasing to happen. Use a simple eyshadow or concealor brush to apply and make sure it's washed daily after every use. Once it has dried put powder over your lids, then apply shadow.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I bought this to copy an Angelina Jolie eye I saw on expertvillage.com. I put vanilla all over the lid, then Painterly up to the crease followed by a cats eye with black eyeliner. I love the neutral look it gives me and it's perfect for this look. Only think I don't like is it can look cakey.
I was hesitant to buy this as I bought delft and didn't like it. I am so glad that I made this purchase. Its a great primer for eyes and I like it better than prep and prime eyes.

OtherLevels, the mobile marketing and analytics platform used by major games developers, travel brands and gaming companies across the globe, announced today that Betfred.com has chosen them to power the brand's native mobile messaging campaigns that reach more than 100,000 subscribed players. One of the UK's oldest sports bookmaking companies with over 1,300 retail locations and 10,000 employees, Betfred.com manages tens of thousands of betting slips placed by players daily, either in location, via their website or through the company's portfolio of gaming apps.
For gaming companies, the ability to engage players through their mobile device is becoming a top priority: Mobile technology has proven to successfully bridge the device between the online and physical worlds, uncovering new and unique opportunities for brands to reach a broad swath of their players with relevant and targeted messaging.
"In gaming, and especially sports betting, delivering the right message to an engaged user at the right time is critical for success," said James Shaw, Head of Retention at Betfred.com. "Delivering a message to our players to incentivize them to make a wager on an upcoming match just before kickoff or even at half-time isn't quite as straightforward as it may seem. In order for a campaign to be successful it requires we know what sporting categories the player likes, the events he or she follows, and their previous wagering activity."
"For example, we can send half-time messages to recent, active bettors who may not have responded to our pre-game message, while at the same time not disturbing those who did respond. This not only increases our overall ROI in terms of real measurable results, but it is a sophisticated, customer-friendly approach that is unmatched in the UK."
Betfred.com realises the importance of delivering timely offers and incentives to millions of its players — the OtherLevels platform will improve the sports bookmaker's ability to segment and message players based on real, measurable actions, or inactions — through native targeting and retargeting features that simplify and enable retention strategies. Through deep business intelligence (BI) integration between Betfred.com and OtherLevels, players' actions in other channels such as email and SMS, can be transformed into a much greater understanding of their preferences leading to more intelligent messaging and campaigns. The OtherLevels platform ideally suited to experimentation with a suite of testing tools — Betfred.com can now observe, catalogue and then carefully experiment with messaging to find what works and then build on it.
"Mobile is an ideal platform for sports betting and wagering, but we were tasked with helping Betfred.com accelerate their mobile efforts and bring them up to par with a well established email and SMS program. So the challenge was complicated and layered," said Ramsey Masri, CEO of OtherLevels. "Mobile devices can deliver news that is critical to making good bets in a timely fashion. However, that insight has to be actionable and incentivized through well-tested and well-timed notifications."
As different players, in different stages of their mobile journey, will respond in very different ways to push notifications, OtherLevels provided Betfred.com with the ability to link message copy to outcomes and improve on their notifications as part of an iterative process.
"We now have features that are real game changers," said Shaw. "Not only can we geo-fence sports venues, but our retail stores can drive traffic 'across channels.' For us, it was absolutely critical to have a clear picture of our players and how they perceive and act on offers from any channel. OtherLevels gave us the ability to do in mobile what previously have done very successfully for almost 50 years in more traditional channels. I'd say we've not only embraced the mobile future, we're defining it."

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets.

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Hey Brad! The interview request thread auto-locked, and I didn't know who to ask this so sorry if I should be asking someone else. Anyway, would it be at all possible to interview MLP:FiM creator Lauren Faust? She has a deviantart and pays close attention to her commenters, so it'd be easy to reach her, and season one is almost over, so she'll have more time on her hands to handle interviews and such. I know my favoritism of this meme makes me a bit biased, but I really think the hype around this makes it relevant to our interests. Just a thought.

With a unique combination of ancient and contemporary wisdom from Tibetan Buddhism, THE DIAMOND CUTTER presents readers with empowering strategies for success in their personal and professional lives.

The second contains quotes from some of the best commentaries in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. And the third layer, the main text, is the practical application of Buddhist philosophies to the world of business, based upon Geshe Michael Roach's seventeen-years of experience as an employee of the Andin International Diamond Corporation, a company that grew during his tenure from four employees to a world leader in the jewelry industry. Roach's easy style and spiritual understanding make THE DIAMOND CUTTER an invaluable source of timeless wisdom for those familiar or unfamiliar with Tibetan Buddhism. His focus on practical personal and business applications has resonated with and changed the lives of hundreds of thousands of individuals the world over since its original publication.

Investigation Discovery Delivers Bittersweet Valentine's Day Special '50 WAYS TO LEAVE YOUR LOVER'
Love kills...or, at the least, it sure can hurt, a lot! In an all-new Valentine's Day special, 50 WAYS TO LEAVE YOUR LOVER, Investigation Discovery reveals the breakup tactics taken by real people spurned by lousy lovers who feel the sting of Cupid's acid laced arrows. Joining 50 WAYS as host is film and television star Tia Carrere, who has witnessed no small number of dramatic breakups throughout her three decades in Hollywood. Now she turns the camera onto breakup stories that are stranger than any tabloid rumor. And relationship expert to the stars, Dr. Gilda Carle is on hand to shed light on how and why love can go vengeful. Using recreations and interviews with the exes featured, 50 WAYS TO LEAVE YOUR LOVER premieres as a one-hour special on Valentine's Day, Thursday, February 14 at 9 PM E/P.
"The love song says 'breaking up is hard to do', but it sure wasn't for the people featured on 50 WAYS TO LEAVE YOUR LOVER," said Henry Schleiff, president and general manager of Investigation Discovery. "Fierce and fearless both in and out of the spotlight, Tia is the perfect host for this light-hearted but darkly themed special Valentine's gift from ID!"
Everyone has their own list of deal breakers in a relationship, but a select few warrant the ballistic responses witnessed in 50 WAYS. Maybe your lover never keeps his word. Maybe they're second-rate in the sack. Maybe he hates your friends or, even worse, he's cheated on you with one of them. As Paul Simon sings it, "There must be fifty ways to leave your lover." The methods featured in this special are:
- Luring your five-timing boyfriend to a seedy motel for a supposed night of romance, tying him to the bed and blindfolding him to set the mood, then bringing in his other lovers for an Epic ambush that involves nail glue and the cheating son-of-a-gun's private parts. Location: Oshkosh, Wisconsin - Exes: Wendy Martin and Donessa Taylor
- When a lying cheat sends you into a blind rage, deciding that your car would make a proper statement of your anger...until the Cops arrive to take you in for a little alone time, in a jail cell. Location: Jacksonville, Florida - Exes: Amber Overby and Timothy Davis
- Enlisting a stripper friend to get pregnant by your husband - thinking the bundle of joy will save your on-the-fritz marriage - then attacking her when they kindle a real romance. Location: Dallas, North Carolina - Exes: Tabatha Johnson and Wade Logeais
50 WAYS TO LEAVE YOUR LOVER is produced for Investigation Discovery by Indigo Films with David M. Frank as executive producer, Carl Schick as supervising producer, and Chris Leavell as vice president of content. For Investigation Discovery, John Terp is producer, Sara Kozak is senior vice president of production, Kevin Bennett is general manager, and Henry Schleiff is president and general manager.

Refiners and other obligated parties under the federal Renewable Fuels Standard won't be required to file 2013 reports until after 2014 quotas for cellulosic biofuel, biomass-based diesel, advanced biofuel, and total renewable fuel have been announced, the US Environmental Protection Agency said.
Regulated parties won't have to submit annual compliance reports and attested engagement reports for 2013 until 30 days and 90 days, respectively, following publication of the 2014 final quotas have been published in the Federal Register, EPA said in a July 31 Direct Final Rule signed by Administrator Gina McCarthy.
EPA took the action "because we are still working on the 2014 RFS final standards, and we are taking the time to get them right," a source at the agency said. "The goal is to put the RFS program on a manageable path that supports continued, achievable, realistic growth in renewable fuels."
EPA delayed the reporting deadline for a second time in 2013 on June 16, moving it to Sept. 30.
The American Petroleum Institute and American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers separately expressed concerns that EPA's latest announcement would further delay final quotas for 2014.
"The law requires EPA to finalize the next year's volume requirements by Nov. 30," an API spokesman said on July 31. "Right now, [it] should be proposing the 2015 requirements, but we're still waiting for [it] to finalize requirements for this year. Unfortunately, this has become the rule rather than the exception when it comes to implementation of the RFS under this administration," he said.
An AFPM spokeswoman, meanwhile, said, "We appreciate the additional flexibility, but their need to grant this extension only highlights the fact that we are more than halfway through the year and still do not know our 2014 obligation. This is more disconcerting in light of reports that the administration is backtracking on its proposal, which recognized the need to avoid the adverse consumer impacts of the blendwall."

Step into to a bird's house. Get eye-to-eye with a moray eel. Greet a sea turtle as he swims up to say hello. The Living Coast Discovery Center isn't a nature museum?it's a chance to hang out with Southern California's plants and animals on their own turf. The Discovery Center's "living, breathing, flapping, buzzing, and splashing home" sits on the 316-acre Sweetwater Marsh National Wildlife Refuge, the ideal location for exploration of the region's most memorable residents in their native habitats.
A walk-through aviary encompasses the tidal slough habitat of black-crowned night herons, red-breasted mergansers, and endangered clapper rail chicks, freshly hatched from the in-house breeding program. Bald and golden eagles await up-close encounters at the Eagle Mesa, but the rays get even closer: an interactive touch pool puts the aquatic creatures beneath your fingertips. Raptor Row hosts the Center's rescued birds of prey, all of which have injuries or other conditions that prevent them from surviving outside the refuge on their own. Visitors are also free to pursue their own wildlife adventure along the center's 1.5 miles of walking trails.
Among its two facilities in La Jolla and downtown San Diego, the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego houses an array of works made since 1950. Head here and you can explore everything from Pop Art and minimalism of the 1960s and 1970s to conceptual pieces from the last half-century, headlined by contemporary-art luminaries such as Andy Warhol and Ai Weiwei.
Major figures aside, the MCASD strives to spotlight mid-career artists still looking for their big break, as well as pieces by Latin American artists and emergent talent. Between the museum's collection and rotating exhibitions, there are galleries that accommodate paintings, photographs, films, and multimedia installations. Outside both locations, there are more site-specific installations and sculptures by artists such as Richard Serra and Marcos Ramírez ERRE, whose father created the Caps Lock on the day his son was born.
There's more to the place than its exhibitions: the museum engages visitors with events and programs such as art-making sessions and artist lectures. Held three evenings a year, the Thursday Night Thing series includes talks, hands-on activities, live music, and cocktails, all based on the latest museum exhibitions.
In 1991, the eponymous founder of Losina Art Center, Olya Losina, moved to La Jolla from Moscow, where she was raised among a vibrant artistic community and served as the art director for the Soviet Union's largest multilingual publishing facility. Losina's fine-art methods, which she honed while obtaining her master's degree at Moscow University, focus on teaching art as a science. While helping her students at the center to work toward mastery of portraiture, the human form, landscapes, and still-life subjects, she performs exercises that aim to reach them on a subconscious level. Together with Losina, the students examine the conscious thoughts that often intrude upon creative expression. They approach the artistic consciousness as a surgeon would approach a brain when trying to dislodge catchy pop tunes from the frontal lobe. With obstructions cleared, pupils find themselves able to work freely and efficiently.
Ghostly Tours in History's passionate guides unlock a portal to the paranormal, leading visitors to haunted and eerie sites around San Diego's Old Town district and Gaslamp Quarter. Depending on the tour, stops include Victorian mansions, the Whaley House, known graveyards, and even unknown graveyards, below which lie the bodies of restless souls. Featured on both the Travel Channel and the Fodor's Top 400, the company offers walking tours as well as bus and limousine tours for guests tired from giving their assigned ghost a piggyback ride.
In keeping with the historical nature of the tours, each guide dons a period costume and alter ego, ranging from reformed vagabonds to pioneering entrepreneur cowboys. In reality, the cast of guides is equally as diverse, encompassing trained actors, students, a Navy serviceman, and past and present members of the San Diego Historical Society.
The historic fountain at the east end of Balboa Park's El Prado pedestrian walk is a lure for visitors, thanks to its majestic and cooling spray. But a quick turn to the right is the entrance to the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center, another local draw. For the young, it's a two story, interactive science playground. For the young at heart, there are sophisticated displays, rotating exhibits and the new, NanoSeam IMAX Dome Theater. Films splayed across the 76-foot wraparound screen plunge viewers into the depths of the sea and out into space, through jungles and between skyscrapers around the planet. Resident astronomers also create new shows monthly, using the latest SkyScan System software. The café near the entrance takes care of hungry visitors with a modest menu, a few tables indoors and patio seating in front of the fountain.
Launched as a walking-tour company in 2003, Where You Want to Be Tours features a variety of custom adventures designed to show off the beauty of San Diego to locals and tourists. Most adventures last more than two hours, so tourists have plenty of time to stop and sightsee at spots such as Balboa Park and the shores of La Jolla. Today, the company has formed a set of all new clues and hidden gems and has also expanded its offerings with bike tours of locations such as Pacific Beach and Mission Bay and scavenger hunt adventures, which present a hands-on approach to urban exploration, turning tour routes into racecourses and throwing in physical challenges, including Frisbee-throwing contests.

Gary Johnson can win-Paul People must vote for Johnson
If all the Paul people get on board and vote for Gary Johnson, there will be a good chance he will win. Traditionally everyone will come out and vote in a Presidential election. If all of us come out and vote for Johnson, considering our number, we will make a major impact on this election. A three way split is not a bad thing. We need to ensure he stays on all the ballots. Don't let the crooks get away with this.
We who support Ron Paul and are republicans, must speak up against the corruption exhibited by our party this week. Romney is not the legal candidate according to the national party rules. The rules are there to be followed, not changed. This is an example of how dirty the leaders are who run the party. There is no integrity, just corruption. I suggest everyone start by joining their local committee. Through gaining placement within we can start to make changes. It takes time. We have the next four years to gain control. It won't happen overnight.
Speak up now, or forever hold your piece.

Green Tomatoes – Extended Anniversary Edition
Picture: B
Sound: B- Extras:
B Film: B
I was totally won over by Fried Green Tomatoes when I first
saw it theatrically in January of 1992 (it received a
limited release in late December, 1991 to qualify for awards
consideration before going wide in late January, 1992). In
fact, I ended up seeing the film a second time in theaters a few months later
and it ended up in the No. 5 spot on my annual best-10 list.
Universal's new Extended Version on DVD (it runs 7 minutes longer
than the original theatrical cut) enticed me to watch the film again recently
for the first time in more than 14 years. And while there's no doubt it
remains a good film, I came away feeling I might have rated Fried Green Tomatoes a bit too
highly all those years ago. Of course, I'm in my middle
30s now as opposed to my early 20s, and I've obviously grown more jaded
and cynical since then. As a result, Fried Green Tomatoes seemed a little more hokey
and manipulative this time around, even though it's still an immensely likable,
wonderfully-performed film.
The pivotal character in Fried
Green Tomatoes is an unhappy, overweight Southern housewife
named Evelyn Couch (Kathy Bates), who's settled into a humdrum, unfulfilling
life with her longtime husband, Ed (Gailard Sartain), who praises her cooking,
but would rather eat it sitting in front of the TV watching sports instead of
sitting at the table and talking to her. Ed's not a bad guy like another
abusive louse we meet in the movie. He's simply inattentive and addicted
to sports -- if this were a crime, half the men in America would be on death
While visiting one of Ed's relatives in a nursing home, Evelyn
meets a spirited nursing-home resident named Ninny Threadgoode (Jessica
Tandy). The elderly Ninny starts telling the repressed Evelyn intriguing
tales of a tomboyish, independent-minded young woman named Idgie (Mary Stuart
Masterson), and her best friend, Ruth (Mary Louise Parker), who together ran
the Whistle Stop Café in a tiny town called Whistle Stop, Alabama
during the Great Depression.
As the film intercuts between Idgie's story in the 1930s and
Evelyn's in the present day, Ninny's tales of Idgie and Ruth help inspire
Evelyn to become more assertive, regain her self-esteem and take more control
of her life.
Based on Fannie Flagg's novel, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Café,
the film's screenplay was co-written by Flagg and Carol
Sobieski (apparently with much uncredited help from director Jon Avnet).
Their collaboration is a warm-hearted, touching and funny ode to female bonding
and the importance of friendship.
Universal's new digitally remastered 117-minute Extended Edition
-- also called the Anniversary Edition -- comes with a very nice 1.85:1 anamorphic
widescreen transfer. The picture is sharp and clear throughout, and
the color is fittingly vivid and bright. The 5.1 Dolby Digital
surround sound is also good, even though I still had to use the subtitles
the catch the occasional line because of the thick Southern accents of the
characters -- a problem more inherent in the film itself than with the DVD
The special features on this version include a few deleted scenes,
a few outtakes and a newly produced making-of featurette combining on-set
interviews from 1991 with more recently-recorded retrospectives from cast
and crew. There's a feature-length audio commentary with director
Avent, where he repeats a lot of the same information contained in the
making-of documentary. Rounding out the extras are Avnet's director's
notes where he talks about the way he wants to set up scenes; recipes of food
shown in the film; the various poster campaigns considered prior to the
film's release; and production photographs.

Another View -- Cass R. Sunstein: How easy is it to indoctrinate students? Easy
Questions of this kind have long been debated, but without the benefit of reliable evidence. New research, from Davide Cantoni of the University of Munich and several co-authors, shows that recent curricular reforms in China, explicitly designed to transform students' political views, have mostly worked. The findings offer remarkable evidence about the potential influence of the high school curriculum on what students end up thinking — and they give us some important insights into contemporary China as well.
1. Students should learn about, and value, Chinese "democracy" and political participation.
2. Students should learn about the importance of the rule of law for legitimizing the Chinese government.
5. Students should be conscious of environmental issues.
6. Students should develop an appreciation for the diversity of ethnic heritages in China, and the Han majority should not have discriminatory views about minorities.

I am trying to run Cucumber tests against a database that is already populated with data. It's basically a copy of our production database.
For some reason I have some tests failing which seemingly is coming from the fact that it can't find the data. Any idea on how to make this work and why it wouldn't like "pre-seeded" databases?
Our data is far too complex to try to recreate via factories/fixtures. There's just no way.
Here's an example:
Scenario: a tech logs in
Given I am on the login page
And user with id 2328 exists
When I login as "user" with password "password"
Then I should be on the dashboard page
And I should see "Logged in as: USER"
The step:
Given /^user with id (\d+) exists$/ do |id|
Employee.exists? id
When /^I login as "([^\"]*)" with password "([^\"]*)"$/ do |username, password|
visit login_url
fill_in "username", with: username
fill_in "pwd", with: password
click_button "Login"
Maybe its my steps and has nothing to do with the database, but I can't understand why it doesn't fail on the
And user with id 2328 exists step when I give it a bad number.
I have seen this but it doesn't seem to affect the flow.
Lastly, here is the actual login method (believe me, I know how awful this login check is, simply checking we have permissions to the database):
def login
if request.post?
# get database config for env
configs = ActiveRecord::Base.configurations[Rails.env]
# attempt to connect to the db

Dear Members,
Keep in mind that Character Bashing is now prohibited. Making fun of certain characters/character pairings leads to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking.
Also, remember that Versus threads are allowed only in the Versus section.
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
