GRIFFIN, Ga. — School officials in Spalding County say a preschool student will likely be disciplined for bringing a loaded gun to school.
A letter to parents from Jordan Hill Elementary School Principal Anthony Aikens says the preschooler brought the gun to school in his backpack Tuesday, and a teacher brought the bag to the principal. District officials say parents will likely receive the letter on Wednesday.
Griffin-Spalding County Schools spokeswoman Judy Parker says the principal called police and the child's parents.
In the letter, Aikens reminds parents to speak with their children about appropriate school behavior and to keep weapons out of children's reach.
Griffin is about 37 miles south of downtown Atlanta.

But is it like Crucifictorious?
"He does care for Jesse."

Can't stay in Texas forever.
Look at Landry, all growed up.
"Once he got out of it, it was like, 'Okay, let's never talk about that again.'"
We're interviewing him tomorrow.
I mean, Jesse Plemons. But still.

Dinner & A Movie coming soon to Yonkers, NY-Alamo Drafthouse Yonkers
Not sure if this was ever posted but Alamo Drafthouse has taken over the old UA Cinema location at 2548 Central Park Avenue Yonkers, NY. and will be opening Spring/Summer of 2013.
This is very exciting! I went to an Alamo Drafthouse cinema in Austin on a recent trip (and asked on the appropriate CH board for food recommendations). Highly recommend!
re: iluvcookies
Website says they broke ground 10 days ago.
re: Elisa515
I was by there today and it looks like nothing is going on.
re: iluvcookies
I saw some signs of life in the movie theater yesterday, and there is a new "Five Guys Coming Soon" sign up. Maybe we will have these open in the near future.
re: scarsdalesurprise
I don't understand why you think the old Movieland cinema is a hipster type location. Would you please explain?
Duh, read that wrong. Yes, not the best location. That area is more of a bargain shopping center locale.
re: Nancy C
They had a table at the Clearwater Festival (good neighbors!) and said that the announcement of an opening date will come this week.
The website says there will be some opening week specials (half price admission and maybe food/drink specials?) for those who sign up for the email list.
re: Nancy C
Nice article in Westchester Magazine:
re: Elisa515
nice to see the yonkers brewing co team involved in this, their beer is delicious!
I got an email today that they are opening on August 5th and doing a soft opening to train staff on August 2-4 with $2 movies and half price food and drink (but full price alcoholic drinks).You can go on their website now to order tickets.
re: rolise
EXCELLENT. Thanks for the posting. I just ordered tickets for The Shining $8 for 4 tickets and you get to pick your seats!
I bought tix for last Friday's soft opening but it got cancelled. I couldn't go back this past weekend (they offered to comp all my food if I went Sat or Sun) so I'm headed there tonight. Tonight's the last night it's 50% off all food. Will report back.....
This is a really fun concept and while it seems that they are still working out some kinks I will definitely be returning.
They really seem to have good customer relations. After the show I pre-bought tickets to was cancelled and the opening date was pushed to Sat from Fri, the manager emailed and offered free food Sat & Sun to people who had bought tickets to cancelled shows, free movie passes, and 50% off food from Monday to Thursday. So we went and got our passes tonight and saw The Way Way Back and got 50% our food bill. They obviously wanted to get people in and it worked, plus I appreciated the fact that they went out of their way to make up for the cancelled shows. Every staff member I interacted with tonight was very friendly and helpful.
The theater is a far cry from the dump it was way (way) back when I frequented it some 15 years ago. Seats are _extremely_ comfortable. Every other row was removed for the table/ledge and a pass-through for staff.
They have a really extensive beer list, with a focus on local stuff, like Yonkers, Peekskill, Bronx, maybe Capt. Lawrence, Greenpoint, Keegan, etc. You can order your beer at the bar in the lobby or order it at your seat. If you're looking for expediency, grab it in the lobby.
Food/drink menus are available at your seat. You place your order by writing it down on a piece of paper and putting it up in a holder so staff can see. Our drinks and bottomless popcorn came out very quickly. The popcorn is amazing! Definitely get butter and the extra parmesan sprinkle to put on top (ignore the calorie count).
Our food took a lot longer, almost an hour, but they apparently were backed up in the kitchen (we were perfectly happy munching on our popcorn). During that time all the servers seemed to conveniently disappear. Anyway, we tried three different pizzas and a salad. The crust is good and the pizzas, in the $10-15 range, could feed 2 moderately hungry people. My mushroom pizza was really heavy (I think all the mushrooms were fried) but good. My sister's eggplant pizza was the best. My husband had the Carnivore with lots of different meat on it, which he enjoyed. The salad was great, though drowning in dressing, which I'd get on the side next time: greens with olives, roasted peppers, fresh bread crumbs, and pesto. It's not gourmet food, but it's better than I expected and the ingredients seemed to be fresh.
Without a discount, all that food/drink would have cost about $70 plus tip (for three people) so all in all it isn't a terribly costly meal. But what I would do next time is more of a drinks/snacks approach-- maybe try one of their adult milkshakes and the fried pickles and fries and other appetizers.
It's definitely fun and a novelty and like I said it was so comfortable that I felt like I was watching a movie in my living room, except I didn't have to cook dinner! Win win.
re: i_eat_a_lot_of_ice_cream
Thanks for the report! We will definitely have to give this a try.

Michael Flatley wants to put the Cliffs of Moher on top of the world – and threw open his palatial Cork mansion to prove it.
The man who put Irish dancing on the world map is leading the charge to have the Cliffs recognized as one of the Seven Wonders of Nature.
Flatley believes the County Clare attraction deserves to be globally acknowledged alongside the likes of the Grand Canyon, the Barrier Reef and the Amazon river as one of the top seven wonders of the world.
The Lord of the Dance will headline a fund-raising spectacular at the Cliffs of Moher in September to highlight the campaign.
Over 10,000 fans are expected to block to the 'Edge of the World' series of concerts which will also feature singer Finbar Furey and the renowned
Kilfenora Ceili Band.
Over one billion votes will be cast to decide the Seven Wonders of the World and the cliffs are currently seventh in the betting.
Flatley invited the world's media into his lavish Castlehyde Estate in County Cork to promote the event and the campaign and spoke of his pride at the efforts of all concerned.
Chicago born Flatley said: "We were delighted to be asked to effectively represent Ireland and help make the Cliffs of Moher one of the Seven Wonders of Nature.
"I think it is an extraordinary idea and a wonderful chance for Ireland to be seen in the light it should be."
The global vote will be held on the 11th of November next and Flatley pointed out at his media event that 11-11 is his 'lucky' number.
He also offered visits a fascinating tour of his mansion, bought for $4.2million in 2000 and restored to his 18th Century glory at a cost of almost $40million.
The house, which overlooks the River Blackwater, cost Flatley another $28million in furnishings, equipment and decoration.
The Irish Independent reports that Castlehyde has its own six-bay garage, complete with a clock tower and a reinforced steel roof to protect the dancer's prized car collection from rocks that might dislodge from the limestone cliff to its rear.
Flatley's car collection includes a Jaguar, an MG, a BMW and a Rolls-Royce.
The house itself boasts two wine cellars, a whiskey room, bedrooms decorated according to global themes, a music room, bar, games room and a three-storey library.
"I love it here -- I just wish I could get to spend more time in Castlehyde but I have a lot of business commitments in London and overseas," Flatley told the Irish Independent.
"It is my dream home. I will always keep Castlehyde."

Small biz owners Start new year on organized foot
Permanent link
McLEAN, Va. (1/10/12)--The new year may bring the urge to organize, but that feeling can fade quickly. While resolutions are still fresh, go through the piles of paperwork that are hiding your desk (
Dec. 30).
If you're a small-business owner or self-employed, you'll acquire a lot of paperwork throughout the year. Though you might get into a throwing-out frenzy, you should keep some items:
Financial documents.
You might think that you can toss items such as taxi and parking receipts, but don't. Experts recommend that small-business owners keep supporting documents for business expenses for at least five years. It's a good idea to hang on to some documents indefinitely, such as tax returns and stock and investment statements.
"First, figure out which expenses affect your taxes and keep the related receipts in a specific place until they can be filed," suggests Darla Dernovesk, a freelance writer in Clinton, Wis. "It can be a file folder, a basket, or even a shoe box, but make sure you put these documents there immediately. Then when you have a slow day, or even a slow week, you can file them away for easy access at year-end. This frees you from the tyranny of daily filing while making it easier to tackle the task when you have time. It also allows you to explain your system to employees or other helpers who pitch in when you're out of the office or ill. Labeling the container used for this purpose is helpful, especially if others sometimes visit or use your office space."
Legal documents.
Keep contracts, business licenses or incorporation papers, and critical correspondence with suppliers or customers--anything that could involve legal action.
"Always record and file invoices as soon as they are generated so you know how much is owed and how much has been collected," says Dernovsek. "This makes it possible to predict your cash flow as well as allowing you to send another invoice after 30 or 60 days to pursue late payments. Stay on top of this by placing the material in file folders and checking them regularly. This will also help you at tax time."
Personnel records.
Hang on to employee payroll records, insurance documents, and performance appraisals.
Keep suppliers' bids until the job is finished. Retaining bids for a couple of years may come in handy to help keep track of pricing.
Miscellaneous paperwork
. Everyone has a file of ideas and thoughts that may turn into something or may never mean anything at all, says Dernovsek. "Control this jumble of papers by putting it in a specific place. Then sort it regularly as time allows. This keeps you from saving papers that have no meaning while allowing you to retain ideas with merit," she adds.
Baskets, boxes, and files kept on your desktop or nearby shelves can be your friend as long as you recognize that they are
storage, Dernovsek says. She suggests sorting through file storage and deciding what you must keep at least once a year. Then place everything you must keep for long-term records in permanent storage. This might be a file cabinet or it might be carefully labeled boxes stored on basement shelves. The key is to sort it, label it, and store it appropriately.
You can recycle some items, but be sure to use a cross-cut shredder to discard items with personal or financial information , including credit card applications and job applications for people you don't hire, especially if they include Social Security numbers.
To help get your home office in even better shape, arrange storage for supplies that you use regularly, suggests Dernovsek. When you need a new ink cartridge or staples, for example, you usually need them right away. Creating a simple system for storing everyday items will help to reduce stress when you're under a time crunch.
Aim to thoroughly go through your piles and paperwork quarterly so you actually tackle it at least two or three times a year, encourages Dernovsek. "Once a year is simply not often enough to find the records required to take maximum advantage of expenses and track payments.
"When work or life becomes overwhelming, catching up on paperwork can be calming. You can't control the chaos everywhere else, but at least you can create the illusion of order on your desk."

As a Chemistry and Math tutor, I am excited and committed to motivate students in order for them to succeed. After a successful career as a Ph.D. Chemist in the Pharmaceutical Industry, I mentored several chemists, and my experience is a great asset in my tutoring sessions.
I have experience with AP, Honors and Academic Chemistry. I have prepared students for the SAT II Chemistry Subject Test and AP Chemistry test. I also have experience tutoring Pre-algebra, Algebra 1 and 2, and Geometry. When tutoring, I usually go over the students' homework, quizzes and tests, and bring extra problems for them to work on in the areas where they seem to struggle most.
I also can tutor conversational French.
I have a strong math background from college (I was a chemistry major). I have tutored several students in algebra 1 in the last 3 years. It is very important for a student to understand the basic concepts in Algebra.
I have a strong math background from college (I was a chemistry major). I have tutored several students in Algebra 2 in the past 3 years. I am very committed to helping students do well in Algebra 2.
I have a bachelor and doctorate degree in chemistry. I worked in the pharmaceutical industry as a chemist for 26 years and in my retirement I decided to help students succeed in chemistry. I have successfully tutored several students in honors and AP chemistry in the past few years. I have a broad knowledge of chemistry and passed the Praxis test 4 years ago. I really feel I can help your student succeed.
I am French speaking of background, and although I have been living in the US for the past 30 years, I am still very fluent in French. I communicate in French every week with my family both verbally and through E-mail (writing). I taught French to the adult community for 8 weeks four years ago and feel very confident that I can help students who would like to practice conversation.
I have a strong math background from college (I was a chemistry major). I tutored several students in algebra 1 and 2 in the past three years. Geometry being a prerequisite for algebra 2, I feel very confident that I can successfully help students in geometry.
I have a Ph.D. in organic chemistry from McGill University and was an organic chemist in the Pharmaceutical Industry for most of my career (26 years). I synthesized compounds in the lab and planned the synthetic routes to be used to achieve a successful synthesis. I now feel I can help your student in organic chemistry at the high school and college level.

Is There a Special Place in Hell for Men Who Wear Mandals?
Isn't that just fitting? it's not enough that the man is a wife-abusing Jesus freak. Now he's gone and worn gladiators out of the house.
Generally, we're not big fans of celebs who need stylists just to get dressed, but maybe Rachel Zoe could take him on as a pro bono case? Because Mel's toe cleav is launching an online holy war.
Over at The Daily Beast, they've surveyed a lot of experts. The consensus seems to be that men shouldn't let their toes show unless there's sand between them at that very moment -- or they're Matthew McConnaughey / the leader of the free world.
Though the jury's even hung on Barack Obama's flip-flops. Apparently he was spotted wearing a leather variety, while -- gasp -- not in Hawaii. But I take issue with this ...
See, recently I bought a pair of leather flip-flops for my husband -- initially because we were attending an Indian wedding -- and now he's kind of taken a liking to what he mockingly calls his "gay European sandals."
Personally, since they're flip-flops, and not, say, Birkenstocks, I don't feel he's wronging the women of American by wearing them. But am I unwittingly reserving him a place in hell next to Mel? If so, please set me straight.

I LOVE seeing men's feet, so I love these open toed sandals on men.
I think they're VERY sexy-- especially if you think men's feet are sexy in general.

Um, out here in Oregon hippies take huge pride in wearing sandals. It is almost a competition who can wear them the longest into winter. So I don't know how applicable this statement is nationally.

It seems to be one of those "well-known facts" that petting an animal can lower a person's blood pressure – and yes, we're assuming that the animal isn't a piranha. Unfortunately, many people are unable to own a pet, or they at least have to spend their stressful workday away from their cuddly critter. A new system called iPet Companion, however, lets users play with real, live cats – in real time – via the internet. Read More
More realistic pet robots that recognize and respond to human emotions
Sony's Aibo may be discontinued, but robotic pets of all shapes and sizes continue to stake a claim in the hearts of people around the world. Despite the apparent intelligence of some of these robot pets, their behavior and actions are usually nothing more than pre-programmed responses to stimuli – being patted in a particular location or responding to a voice command, for example. Real flesh and blood pets are much more complex in this regard, even discerning and responding to a person's emotional state. Robotic pets could be headed in that direction, with researchers in Taiwan turning to neural networks to help them break the cycle of repetitive behavior in robot toys and endow them with almost emotional responses to interactions.

Doggie Fountain: clean water at the press of a paw
Dogs make great pets - they are loyal, playful, enjoy being outdoors and are fairly easy to care for. But one job most people would happily give up (apart from poop-scooping!) is cleaning out and filling up the dog's drink bowl. That's why the Doggie Fountain is instantly appealing – not only does it provide your pet with clean, fresh water – once installed, you won't have to lift a finger because it runs on pooch power.

Hoping to capitalize on over-protective pet owners (like myself!), Softbank is rolling out its innovative – and admittedly cute – Mimamori Camera. This clever pet monitoring system allows you to keep tabs on your pet remotely via your mobile phone, all in real time using a Japanese handset's 'TV call' function. Read More
Pet Umbrella is a dog's best friend
This is pure genius. Lieben, a company based in Japan, has created an umbrella that will keep your dog nice and dry when you walk him on a rainy day. The concept is surprisingly simple. It looks like a regular umbrella, but the canopy is inverted so that when you point it downwards it's actually right-side up. The umbrella is transparent as well so as to not impede the dog's vision.

Pet Pooch Power System vacuums up Rover's messy business

For Tweet's sake! With Puppy Tweets your pet can Twitter too
Mattel's Puppy Tweets is a new gadget that allows your pet to send you a cutesy tweet via Twitter every time they move, bark or sleep. The device is pre-loaded with over 500 phrases that are designed to put an amusing spin on a mundane activity. Your pet barks - you get a message saying - "I bark because I miss you. There I said it. Now hurry home." Read More
Love your music but can't understand why it sends your cat or dog flying out of the room? Well, apparently it's because your furry friend hears the high and low frequencies in sounds that the human ear can't detect – so playing your favorite tunes can really irritate, disturb or even scare your pet. Here's a clever solution that could soon have you both in auditory heaven - the My Pet Speaker. It reduces the unsettling frequencies of music - so it's gentle on your pet's ears - and lets you still enjoy the music you love. Read More
Dog-e-Minder - an electronic diary for your best friend
Wondering why your mutt is gaining weight and your pet food bill is going through the roof – even though you're regularly feeding the dog what you always have? Could it be that someone else in your household is feeding your pet, too, or forgetting to walk your canine pal. And when was the last time your dog had its flea or heart medication? A new, easy-to-use three-button device called the Dog-e-Minder should help solve some of these problems. It attaches to your pet's collar and shows the last time your dog was fed, walked or had its medication. When idle, the Dog-e-Minder works as a backlit identification tag. Read More
Drink No More: stop your pets from drinking toilet water
Household pets like to drink water from the toilet because it is cool and readily available. However, it's also full of bacteria and toilet cleaner residue, both of which can make your pet ill. And you don't really want them near your face when you know where their head has just been! Drink No More is an alarm that is on alert when the toilet lid is up and sounds warning beeps when a pet or person approaches the bowl. Read More

Adios JLo and Hello TLo - The New Macarena is Cash Money Records' Artist T Lopez.MSNBC MSNBC Microsoft/National Broadcasting Company reports JLo is retiring from singing, radio stations across the nation are introducing T Lopez. She is the newest face of Cash Money Records, a label famous for major hip-hop artists like Birdman bird·man
1. also One, such as an ornithologist, who works with birds.
2. Slang An aviator. and Lil' Wayne, GQ Magazine's "greatest rapper in the world". The label is now crossing over as evidenced by newcomer Kevin Rudolph, who debuted in 2008 with his hit single "Let it Rock", and now T Lopez, the first ever Latina at the label.
(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20090212/LA70084)
The new Latin singing sensation is featured on IMC Records' newly released remake of "Macarena", the biggest selling Latin single ever on the Billboard pop charts. Now celebrating its 15th anniversary, or Quinceanera, the Spanish version of the remake has already debuted on stations like New York's WSKQ-FM La Mega 97.9 FM, San Francisco's KVVZ La Kalle 105.7 FM, Puerto Rico's WMEG-FM La Mega 106.9 FM and is making its way onto other major stations nationwide.
"We totally reinvented the Macarena with the help of The Art of Sound boys in Miami and artists like El Chino DreadLion (Yerba Buena) and Yeyo (The DEY), but were lacking that feminine touch, and thanks to Cash Money Records we found that in T Lopez," says Darius Jordi Lassus, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of IMC Records, Inc who came across T Lopez when she was in Los Angeles recording at Candor Entertainment Studios. Lopez rounds out an all-star roster of collaborators (Jon Secada and Oscar D'Leon, to name a few) in making "Quinceanera Macarena". The album features 8 original compositions like "Mi Gitana" and "Roberto y Natalia" and is available in Wal-Mart stores nationwide and iTunes worldwide.
Born in Ontario, California to Mexican American parents, Christina "T" Lopez proudly embodies the new Macarena, a girl who knows what she wants, by focusing on her long and short term goals daily. This week, T Lopez performs with Los del Rio and the rest of the Macarena gang on Don Francisco Presenta, hosted by Univision's most famed and successful primetime and late night personality, and then embarks on a promotional tour that will take her to New York, Miami and Puerto Rico before she rejoins the Cash Money crew in Phoenix for the 2009 NBA All-Star weekend, just in time for Kevin Rudolph's performance at the highly-anticipated Sprite Slam Dunk Contest The Slam Dunk Contest is an annual NBA competition held during the week of the NBA All-Star Game. The Contest was inaugurated by the American Basketball Association at its All-Star Game in 1976 in Denver, just as the slam dunk was legalized in the NCAA.

My SIL is being confirmed next weekend. My Dh is her Godfather and sponsor. Could you please give me some ideas for gifts for her? Something nice and orginial?
|Wed, 05-28-2003 - 12:05pm
What saint did she choose? You might be able to find some little figurine or medal.
|Wed, 05-28-2003 - 5:27pm
For my Confirmation, my sister gave me a book called "Hope for the Flowers" by Trina Paulus. It is a cute story about a caterpillar looking for a way "up", and the book is just a favorite of mine and I have given it many times over (to one of my Goddaughters for Confirmation) and had the same reaction from everyone. Just sort of neat little, up lifting story.
Good luck and I hope you find something!

2015 Trends: Continuous Infrastructure

This is a continuation of ten 2015 trends which I started in my last post . These three post refer to three key enablers for Business Defined It.
by Hu Yoshida on Nov 15, 2014
For the past several years I have published top ten IT trends for the coming year, based up on my observations of the current year. Next year the trends will be an extension of this year's trends, but with more clarity and urgency. You have already seen disruption in the market place as vendors struggle to align with the changing demands of the business. For 2015 these trends will be driven by the need for IT to embrace the third platform that IDC has identified that is built on the mega trends around mobility, cloud, social and big data. I believe these are business trends that define IT and will be the bases for the major IT trends in 2015 and beyond. This is my first post in a series that expands on Business Defined IT and summarizes the other trends that I will cover in the next 3 posts. Feel free to comment with your opinions.

On Monday, April 15th of last year, two bombs exploded during the Boston Marathon, killing 3 people and injuring hundreds. The FBI immediately set up a command center and began scanning every available video of the target area. They located two suspects in the videos, but could not get a clear, frontal picture that they could match to their terrorist databases. The decision was made on Wednesday to release the video clips on television and enlist the public's help in identifying the suspects. The public responded and the suspects were identified immediately. Unfortunately the suspects also knew they were identified and they hijacked a car and were planning to go to New York City to plant more bombs. There was a shoot out Thursday night and one suspect was killed after killing a police officer and severely wounding another.

Surveys show that backup and restore remain at the top of the list of concerns for data centers. Each year as volumes increase, the struggle to meet SLAs and manage backup windows increases. Many enterprises with very large databases have come to rely on techniques such as simultaneously backing up data through multiple backup streams (multi-streaming) and backing up multiple sources to a single backup device (multiplexing). While these techniques can speed up backup dramatically, it makes it difficult to dedupe using traditional hashing techniques, which results in increased storage costs for backup.

In June of last year 2013, VMware announced VSAN. VMware Virtual SAN is embedded in the VMware vSphere kernel and enables clusters of servers with direct attached hard disk drives and solid state drives (HDD and SSD) to create a shared datastore. The management architecture of VSAN enables administrators to specify storage attributes, such as capacity, performance, and availability, in the form of policies on a per VM basis. VSAN brings the benefits of software-defined storage to direct attached storage. Since it eliminates the need for a storage controller, it requires SSDs for read and write caching and the support of the hypervisor for other storage controller functions like provisioning, snap shots, clones, data replication, and data protection. Does this mean that storage arrays will go away to be replaced by commodity HDDs and SSDs?

Recently I was reviewing a slide deck that marketing had put together and I was struck by a statistic, which I thought was dubious. The claim was that there were 545 cloud services that were in use in the average enterprise. I thought this was way out of line as I looked at my own use of public cloud services like Twitter and LinkedIn. I thought the number must be less by an order of magnitude, so I went to research this on the web and I verified that the 545 number was wrong.

Watch These Deep-Fried Turkey Explosions — Daily Distraction
Just in case you need another warning: deep-frying turkeys can be dangerous. And here's proof.
Just in case you need another warning: deep-frying turkeys can be dangerous. And here's proof.
I ran across this video starring Duck Dynasty's Jase Robertson and Uncle Si. It's actually a State Farm Insurance commercial with Jase giving you a few safety tips when deep frying your turkey this Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving, of course, is a time to pause and reflect about all the good in our lives, but what exactly are we thankful for this year?
Thanksgiving means the whole family—in-laws, distant cousins, grandparents and grandchildren—gets together to share a meal, catch up and generally spend some quality time together. If you're the host, it can be a challenge to entertain such a broad gathering of people.
I know there are lots of ways to fix turkeys and everyone has their own favorite recipe, but if you're new to cooking Thanksgiving dinners you may need a little help. One thing you want to do is brine your turkey.
Ah, Thanksgiving. Every family's tradition is different, but some things always ring true. There will always be a motley crew of folks coming together to celebrate and slip into a tryptophan-induced slumber
Thanksgiving, which we've been celebrating in America for centuries now, is a time of family, food and, especially, tradition. Even so, many of the stories we take as gospel about this wonderful holiday—wonderful if you're not endlessly bickering with your relatives, that is—aren't true at all. Myth, legend and wishful thinking play into a lot of the misconceptions surrounding Turkey Day.
Thanksgiving without turkey would be like Easter without eggs.
But could it happen?
Thanksgiving Day just keeps getting more country, and well, we're really grateful for that. Lady Antebellum are set to perform on 'The Thanksgiving Day Parade,' bringing their 'golden' voices to fans' living rooms across the country.
Getting your family in the mood to eat gobs of delicious food on Thanksgiving may not be the toughest task, but you can always make things memorable by sprucing up the house a bit too. It'll enhance everyone's experience, you'll be able to reuse the decorations next year, and best of all, it's fun.
If you run the risk of eating so much of the main course that you can't entertain the thought of enjoying dessert this Thanksgiving, then have we got some big news for you.
Thanksgiving is almost here, which means we start seeing turkeys everywhere—on TV, in our children's school drawings, running through our dreams every single night while we sleep ... you get the idea. And eventually these poor turkeys will be inside many of our overstuffed stomachs as well.

- Studio: Yari Film Group Releasing
- Release Date: Oct 12, 2007
- Starring: Powers Boothe, Sean Astin
- Summary: The Final Season is based on the true story of a small-town baseball team facing insurmountable odds. Tradition in Norway, Iowa (pop. 586) can be summed up in one word: baseball. From father to son, generation to generation, this high-school David exists to defeat Goliaths 10 times its size. As coach Jim Van Scoyoc leads the team to its 19th State title, it seems that following it with a 20th is a forgone conclusion. But the unexpected strikes when bureaucracy intercedes to merge the town with another. Petty jealousies and political designs conspire to rob Norway of its heritage and a 20th Championship. Making matters worse, coach Van Scoyoc is fired and replaced with a one-season assistant coach, Kent Stock--a move that seems to guarantee the team's failure. The Final Season is a film about the sudden nature of change, the identity of a small town, and the strength that brings out the best when we need it most. (Yari Film Group)… Collapse

Score distribution:

There's a sign on the way into Norway, or at least a sign that somebody from the film crew put up: "On the eighth day, God created baseball." If amen is your answer to that, then The Final Season is the movie for you.
Formulaic but not cynical, The Final Season has some sweet, thoughtful passages in what is otherwise just one more well-meaning inspirational sports movie.
Nathan Wang's score borrows blatantly from "The Natural" and is slathered on thick in all the big emotional scenes. They establish the right nostalgic mood, but it's broken with that loud "ping" of a metal bat every time a kid gets a hit.
In a movie where the timing of a squeeze bunt is presented as the thing of beauty that it is, and the eradication of small-town culture in a changing world is a genuine concern, the simplifying countrified morality of The Final Season is the real crying shame.
Exactly the formulaic, by-the-numbers movie it appears to be. These Tigers deserved better.
All these stereotypes are meant to exalt small-town values, but The Final Season is proof that it's hard to paint masterpiece in broad strokes.
Kind of "Hoosiers": Part 2. But the storytelling is so backassward that it's impossible to care about any of the characters or really engage in the movie whatsoever.

ChadS.Apr 16, 2008Same nickname, different sport, but the same theme that ran through Kenneth A. Carlson's "Go Tigers!", the 2001 documentary about a small town's obsession with its football team, runs through "The Final Season", as well. Which is: People should get a life. When an Iowaian school board votes to shut down Norway High School and have it merge with a sister school, a bigger school, academics is brought up briefly, only given lip service, by a woman with two college-aged children, before much of the town hall hubbub returns to, and revolves around the tiny high school's decorated baseball team. In "Go Tigers!", we can see with alarming clarity how those sports-minded townsfolk have their priorities all mixed up. In a sports call-in show, one concerned football fan complains that the Masillion players are hitting the books too hard. The father of a Norway player in "The Final Season" attends his son's game against doctor's orders, despite the possibility of imminent death. "The Final Season" treats this unflagging loyalty as cute, not demented, but that's because this "Hoosiers" for baseball purists slathers on so much corn syrup, fanaticism gets sugar-coated. "The Final Season" doesn't see a problem with a culture that's centered around the fortunes of its high school sports teams. There's no sane person like the Barbara Hershey character in the David Anspaugh-directed film about Indiana high school basketball, who speaks as an advocate for education. In the postscript, no mention is made about the academic progress of the transplanted Norway student body. Like most people when it comes to academic institutions, "The Final Season" seems only concerned about the school's athletic programs. The bigger school, we learn, has yet to produce a championship season. But is that a tragedy, if the kids of Norway are receiving a better education?… Expand

School board: Leathercraft, needlework will no longer be Manchester classes
The Board of School Committee voted Monday to approve a pared-down list of course offerings for next fall that will be nearly uniform at each of the three high schools.
At the same time, the board voted to specifically eliminate the hands-on electives that had previously been considered untouchable because they were geared toward English-language learners and special education students.
"Rather than needlework and leathercraft, they should be reading a book, learning the language. Those are educational opportunities," Mayor Ted Gatsas said at Monday's meeting, referring to the English Learner (EL) students.
EL students make up 66 to 77 percent of the students in the two courses, according to district officials.
The vote was the culmination of months of work in the Curriculum and Instruction Committee.
At the previous school board meeting, the committee presented a list that eliminated many courses but still preserved the system of having specialized offerings at each school, particularly at Central, which has considerably more courses than the other two high schools.
The list approved Monday essentially takes 36 school-specific courses, such as Shakespeare and Women's Literature at Central, and makes them available at Memorial and West as well.
The courses would be held only if a sufficient number of students enrolled. Superintendent Thomas Brennan said he would back an effort to get students to finalize course registrations by June.
Brennan said he believed teachers at each of the schools could be reassigned to teach the newly offered courses.
"Our teachers are highly qualified," he said.
He indicated that the main potential expense was for textbooks.
The school board voted unanimously to approve the program of studies.
While the course listing does away with needlework and leathercraft, it still includes some hands-on courses, such as regional foods, baking and creative sewing.
Brennan said the decision to target the needlework and leather-working courses was based on an assessment of how the classes functioned. "Whether they are EL students or anyone else, I get concerned," he said. "I think it's an insult to any student when you have to go to courses as holding places."
In backing the elimination of the courses, Gatsas alluded to a controversy in August, when local members of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights decried the way the district taught its immigrant and minority students. Upset by the lack of data cited by the group, Gatsas cut short its presentation.
"I'm not sure if the group I asked to leave knew that we had EL students taking needlework and leather-crafting," Gatsas said.
West principal
In other action Monday, the school board voted against a motion to halt the hiring of John Rist to serve as the interim principal at Manchester High School West.
The proposal was made by board member Art Beaudry, who has criticized the hiring of Rist because the former longtime principal at Central High is collecting a pension and would only be allowed to work 32 hours a week, under state regulations.
"We're paying an individual for part-time work 90 dollars an hour. We're paying more for a part-time individual than if we had someone full-time in there," Beaudry said.
The vote against the motion was 12-2, with board member Debra Gagnon Langton joining Beaudry in voting for the measure.
Rist was tapped to replace MaryEllen McGorry, who resigned earlier this month following a probe into wrongdoing, the nature of which the district has not disclosed.
