Beneath its public veneer of conservative morals and principals patriotism, nationalism, so-called 'family values' Hitler's Third Reich was not only evil but decadent and thoroughly corrupt
. Every aspect of German society, from the clergy to the judiciary to the military, was compromised by its acceptance of National Socialism. But what of the sex industry? That, too, was suborned by the Nazis when it could be manipulated to serve the State. In this purportedly true story (very
based on real events), director Tinto Brass (
) takes a prurient, highly stylized peek under Nazi Germany's skirt.
It is 1939, in the months prior to the outbreak of World War II. Major Wallenberg (Helmut Berger), an up-and-coming SS officer, receives an unusual assignment from his superior: recruit a bevy of attractive young women, all faithful Nazis of impeccable Aryan stock, to serve as prostitutes for the Reich's elite. But satisfying libidos isn't the real objective. A political motive lies behind the scheme. Eavesdropping devices will be planted in the brothel to verify the loyalties of its clientele. The girls are to dutifully record the actions and statements of their customers in written reports. The potential for career-enhancing blackmail is not lost on the ambitious Wallenberg.
Scouring Germany for potential
candidates, he tests the girls by subjecting them to an SS orgy and a series of 'experiments' that has them forced to copulate with lesbians, cripples, amputees, mental defectives, and even Jews. Those that can't hack it are swiftly culled for their lack of patriotic fervor. Once a sufficient number of girls are selected the plan proceeds to Phase Two. Wallenberg needs an expert in the flesh trade to supervise the bordello, one already known and trusted in the business. He turns to Kitty Kellermann (Ingrid Thulin), madam of the most exclusive whorehouse in Berlin, the Salon Kitty. He forces her under his control by closing down the Salon and discharging her stable of prostitutes, all by order of the State. Kitty can reopen for business but only if she takes under her wing Wallenberg's hand-picked girls and moves operations to a new location, an art deco edifice that's more "discreet". The place is riddled with bugging equipment but Kitty is not told about the surveillance nor of the 'mission' assigned the whores. She takes the deal.
One of Wallenberg's most enthusiastic recruits is Margherita (Teresa Ann Savoy), the beautiful, headstrong daughter of an upper-class bourgeois family. A committed National Socialist, she's willing to cast off all her inhibitions in service to Hitler. The SS officer develops a perverse fascination with the girl, cultivating a twisted
-style relationship with his "creation"
in effect becoming a sort of Prof. Higgins in jackboots. But his creation rebels when she becomes involved with one of her johns, Hans Reiter (Bekim Fehmiu), a Luftwaffe pilot who falls in love with her. With the war now underway, Reiter has grown disgusted by the Nazi regime, revealing to Margherita his intention to defect to the British. Not knowing the brothel is bugged she lies in the written reports about her lover, never mentioning his seditious statements. Wallenberg knows differently, of course, and has Reiter executed as a traitor. But such is his obsession that he shields Margherita from punishment. Wallenberg now believes he can do and get away with anything, privy as he is to the most intimate secrets and perversions of Germany's VIPs. Blackmail will pave his way to the very highest echelons of power. His Nazi ideals have become as meaningless to him as the lives he so callously manipulates and destroys
just means to an end. Margherita, however, learns of Reiter's death and that the Salon is bugged. She tells Madam Kitty, who is outraged by Wallenberg's skullduggery. Together the two women plot revenge against him, each for their own reasons. He is to be hoisted on his own petard...
Salon Kitty
has pretensions of being an art film, one with a message about how, at its core, fascism is far less a political ideology than it is simple, institutionalized gangsterism. (Well,
) The Wallenberg character is symbolic of this, a supposedly committed National Socialist who's ultimately revealed as nothing more than a narcissistic, power-mad opportunist
and a mentally unstable one at that. (Showing off to Margherita his private collection of ridiculously elaborate wardrobe ensembles, at one point he's seen posing before the mirror dressed in what can only be described as a Nazi Superman costume, complete with cape.) To my mind, however, Brass' deserved slam of fascism is partially undermined by his insistence on portraying the SS via a barrage of less-than-subtle homoerotic imagery. The dreaded Blackshirts
Hitler's ruthless enforcers
are more likely to be seen lounging together in the steam bath or performing gymnastics and skipping rope naked than doing what they truly excelled at: brutalizing and killing people. Now I don't believe Brass was consciously attempting to equate Nazism with homosexuality per se but a sequence early in the film, set in an SS gymnasium where Wallenberg receives orders from his commander (
's John Steiner, in a full-frontal nude shot!), would seem to preclude any other assertion. It's well known that the leadership of the
, or SA (the "Brownshirts"), included many flagrant homosexuals, but that organization was violently purged by Hitler (partly for that very reason) in the infamous "Night of the Long Knives" in 1934. And it was the SS that did the killing. In the 'fraternity' of the SS
which it should be noted murdered thousands of gays and lesbians for no other reason than their sexual orientation
being identified as a homosexual was a
death sentence.
(Steiner's SS commander is clearly modeled on Reinhard Heydrich, Himmler's right-hand man and one of the architects of the Holocaust. He was also a serial womanizer... So why is the character, and to a lesser extant that of Wallenberg, portrayed as so mincingly effete?) Interestingly enough, the one scene in the film that brings home the true horror of Nazism doesn't even involve the SS (nor is anyone naked). A little Jewish boy, identified thus by the yellow Star of David sewn on his jacket, drops a toy while touring an aquarium with his skittish parents. A member of the
Bund Deutscher Mädel
(League of German Girls) steps up to him and then slowly crushes the child's toy underfoot, the ghost of a smile on her lips. The boy's parents stand helpless in fear and rage. Not a line of dialog is spoken. It's an undeniably powerful moment.
Would that more of the film were along these lines. Instead we get a lot of gender-bending antics courtesy of Madam Kitty's cabaret performances at the brothel, oodles of sex and nudity (the majority of it
fetishistic) and the occasional eyebrow raiser, such as the real slaughter of a pig (disgusting and totally unnecessary), fully nude sex acts with a hunchbacked dwarf and legless amputee, and a Nazi bigwig performing fellatio on an edible dildo he orders one of the whores to hold between her legs. (The point being...?) Brass veers into almost surrealist territory on occasion;
production designer Ken Adam's fabulous sets lend the proceedings an air of hyper-reality. Of the cast, Berger is effective as the reptilian Wallenberg though Ingrid Thulin completely steals the show as the flamboyant, larger than life Madam Kitty. The beautiful, innocent-looking Savoy spends a great deal of her screen time nude. The film certainly isn't boring, particularly if one has even a passing interest in the history and twisted culture of Nazi Germany. (Not to mention naked women and/or men and kinky sex.
Salon Kitty
, while not pornographic, contains the most nudity I think I've ever seen in a non hardcore flick.) But at 133 minutes it's simply too long
the last two cabaret acts are pure filler that bring the movie to a screeching halt. And the direction, to me at least, becomes too stylized for the subject matter at numerous points.
Loaded with extras, Blue Underground's deluxe limited edition of
Salon Kitty
represents the first complete director's cut of the film to be seen in North America. The two-DVD set presents the film itself on Disc 1, along with the U.S. and European trailers and a text bio of director/co-writer Tinto Brass, while Disc 2 contains the majority of bonus features. A/V quality of the anamorphic widescreen (1.85:1) transfer is very good. Some of the reintegrated scenes from Brass' cut don't look as good as the balance of the footage but all in all this is a first class presentation. In regards to audio, the viewer can choose between English
the added scenes are in Italian with auto-enabled subtitles
or watching the film entirely in Italian. (English subtitles for the entire Italian track are but a button push away.) Both language tracks are in digital mono, with the Italian one sounding somewhat fuller.
Disc 2 allows one to wallow in the philosophy and artistry that went into making what must be the classiest "Nazisploitation" flick ever made. Two featurettes are included: a 15-minute interview with Brass, who dwells more on his concept of the film than the actual production, and a fascinating chat (18 min.) with designer Ken Adam, whose art deco sets are the real stars of the movie. (He goes into more detail about the film itself, and about working with Brass to bring their vision to life.) Complimenting the interviews are three substantial image galleries. One is of stills and promotional materials; the other two showcase Adams' conceptual sketches and the costume designs of Jost Jakob respectively. Topping all this off are three U.S. radio spots (the heavily edited version was retitled
Madam Kitty
here) and an illustrated, 74-page DVD-ROM supplement which delves into the real history of the notorious Berlin bordello.
The 2-disc Limited Edition of
Salon Kitty
reviewed here went OOP in 2005. A single-disc version was released that same year. In November 2010 Blue Underground issued the film on
, which includes the bonus materials described above.

Planning and development efforts for Amtrak's existing Northeast Corridor (NEC) and its proposed new, dedicated 220 mph next-generation high-speed rail system are being fully integrated within a new Northeast Corridor business line.
This integrated business line will bring together all Amtrak funding, policy and planning decisions regarding NEC improvements and ensure that the continued development of high-speed rail is a critical element of Amtrak's plans for the Corridor.
The change is the first to be implemented under a new strategic plan which aligns Amtrak's organizational structure and resources with the company's goals and priorities. Safety and security are the top priorities with a strong focus on strengthening Amtrak's bottom line.
"The NEC is Amtrak's premier asset and expanding high-speed rail service is essential to maximizing its success," said President and CEO Joseph Boardman. "The NEC requires more capacity, greater connectivity and increased operating speeds for all Corridor users. Improving and expanding our high-speed rail capabilities is central to achieving those goals."
Effective today, Stephen Gardner is the Vice President of NEC Infrastructure and Investment Development. Gardner is transitioning to the new role from his position as Amtrak Vice President of Policy and Development.
"Stephen has extensive experience and understanding of the NEC and the needs of its customers, and is keenly aware that improving the NEC for all users and building a 220 mph system will require both public investment and private finance," said Boardman.
The new NEC business line is focused on coordinating, managing and developing Amtrak-owned infrastructure in the Northeast to maximize the financial performance of the NEC and to support the current and future operations on the Corridor, including Amtrak, commuter and freight railroad service. It is charged with leading high-speed rail projects, advancing a state of good repair, managing capacity allocation and creating new capacity for existing and new rail services on the Corridor.
In addition, by the end of 2011 Amtrak intends to release an update to its NEC vision plan which integrates planned improvements to the existing Corridor with the proposed development of a next-generation high-speed rail system.
The updated report will incorporate the significant advancements in planning and conceptual development that have occurred during the past year with new analysis of the conceptual alignment, ridership, revenue, operations and maintenance costs projections, and capital investment needs. It also will set forth an ambitious and realistic plan for the phased implementation of true world-class high-speed rail in the Northeast by incrementally upgrading existing NEC infrastructure, enhancing capacity at key chokepoints and building new infrastructure.
Also, Amtrak continues to work on a NEC high-speed rail business and financial plan that will address a variety of project financing issues and will identify strategies for financing, including opportunities to maximize private investment in the future development of the NEC.
Concurrent with the implementation of the new strategic plan and integrated NEC development structure, Al Engel, Vice President of High-Speed Rail, has advised the company he is leaving Amtrak in December to pursue other opportunities. As part of Amtrak's succession planning practices, Engel will assist in the transition.
"Al has performed tremendous work to develop, advance and bring national and international recognition and credibility to the Amtrak high-speed rail program," said Boardman. "As a direct result of Al's leadership, Amtrak is well-positioned and has developed a strong path forward to realizing world-class high-speed rail on the Northeast Corridor."
"I appreciate the opportunity I have had to work at Amtrak and guide the development of its high-speed rail program," Engel said. "Amtrak is vital to achieving true high-speed rail in the United States and it is my sincere hope that the initiatives we have launched will gather momentum and become reality."

Wow. Well, this definately works! I got a sample of it from Sephora and gave it a try. I've used other lip plumpers with varying success and I use Lipfusion almost daily, which works fine but doesn't blow me away.
So I put the Lip Injection on, and immediately noticed how smooth it was. I like the consistancy of it better than Lipfusion. At first I didn't notice a tingle and didn't think that it was going to do anything, and then suddenly it started to work! It didn't really hurt, but it was very tingly, I didn't mind the sensation. After a couple of minutes my lips were noticbly plumped, more than I've ever gotten from a lip plumper, and they were BRIGHT RED. I'm fair skinned and I never wear red lipstick so it looked a little wild to me! At that point my husband walked into the bathroom and did a double take! He could definately tell the difference. One thing I learned from my first try with this is that you have to be REALLY careful not to get it outside of your lip line. I was a little messy with it and I looked like a five year old that had been drinking red Kool-aid. The redness subsided after 15 minutes or so, but it didn't look so great while it lasted. My lips looked bigger for several hours after I used it. Once the redness subsided I put a regular colored gloss over the Lip Injection and my lips looked great!
The bottom line is that it DID plump my lips. This is the best lip plumper I've tried so far. If you can take the tingling, which I didn't think was bad, and the temporary redness, this is a great product. I've tried it a few more times and now that I've learned to apply it more carefully I really like it. You don't need to use very much of it. I've been using it out of a sample package and a few drops of it did the trick. I really liked this product and will probably purchase it.
Sorry to say for all those who disagree but I think this lip gloss works pretty well! For some I can understand how the sting can be quite untolerable but I love the results! I like how the pout-iness subdues after a while but still keeps your lips pink and shiny!
Girls, girls, girls, what are we thinking? Are luscious lips worth 7 minutes of some pretty intense burning? I'm going to have to put my foot down - this product is too painful for me. For you tough ones out there, I will say that this product does temporarily plump lips and brings out a nice flushed color in my lips. But beware, it will plump and flush ANY part of your body that it gets on - your hand, your face, you name it. Be sure to stay within your lip line, and to apply it evenly (my lips were a little lopsided one night when I put it on in a hurry).
A swapper sent me a mini of this as an extra and I love it so much I just bought the whole kit from Sephora. I don't have particuraly small lips, my tops a bit smaller than the bottem though so I thought I'd try it anyway. WOW! This made them alot plumper and because of all the blood rushing to my lips, they were a nice pinky shade (my lips have no color almost naturally) so it was like I didn't even need a gloss over them. This is very shiny and I do love how the gloss by itself looks. I made my 2 friends at work try it and they both loved it too! Than the one guy we work with said to us, "I don't don't what you used, but boy you guys all have nice lips". And he never notices anything, so that was good enough for us. And I happen to like the tingle on my lips, call me crazy, but it reminds me of the tingle you get from Big Red gum but on your lips instead of in your mouth!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is the most intense, high-shine gloss I've ever experienced. That alone makes your lips look HUGE... and on top that, it has the added cayenne in it which makes your lips tingle like crazy and turn beet red! Lip Injection really does work, it plumps up the lips quite dramatically, but you must be careful not to get it anywhere on the skin around your mouth or those areas will turn red as well. Overall a good product. I'd buy it again.
Well i have to say this does work, i've never seen my lips that way before, i loved they way they looked so much that now i want to have a real injection LOL. This burns like crazy, and the sad thing is that the plumping only last as long as it burns, which is like only like 1-2 minutes. So I would say since this doesn't last it would only be a good thing to use if ur getting your picture taken.
I just bought the clear version of this today. A few seconds after I put this on and rub my lips together, they start to burn and it's a bit uncomfortable, but it doesn't last long. It makes my lips a pretty dark rose shade. I didn't notice too much of a difference in my lip size, but my sister said they looked "plumper" to her. Also, the shine lasts for a couple hours on my lips. Overall, I like it because of the long-lasting shine and the shade it turns my lips, plus slight plumping action, but I wouldn't buy it again because it's pretty expensive for a clear lip gloss.
This is the worst product I bought in a while. Yes, it definitely makes your lips fuller and plumper, but at the expense of stinging and burning that you have to bear for all the time you are wearing it. To say more, 10 minutes after I applied the Lip Injection I discovered that I developed redness all around my mouth! On the top of that, my poor lips were numb for hours, no matter how hard I was trying to wash off this product.
Bad, VERY BAD EXPERIENCE with Lip Injection :(
I like the effects of this, but I can't find the clear one anywhere and the coloured ones are just way too 'frosted' for me - I prefer high gloss shine. I've found my Lethal Glow Lip Venom does a better job and looks more natural but the jury is out until I find the clear Too Faced.
I've tried DuWop Lip Venom, a Sally Hansen Lip Inflation and the colored versions of this gloss, but the plain clear is the best I've tried. If you're not ready for some stinging, don't bother with this, but it works where nothing else does. My lips are instantly red and plumped.

So, what to make of our Boston Celtics? Following Danny Ainge's decision to take a sledgehammer to the team, many experts predicted nuclear winter for Team Green. There were those ugly wink-wink, nod-nod rumors of tanking in a mad scramble for a shot at either Wiggins or Parker. There was a rookie head coach with […]Read More
Magic Touch – The Magic Johnson Interview
He flashes that trademark smile, 10,000 megawatts of impossibly perfect teeth and unabashed charisma, and in that instant I find myself completely disarmed, unable to hate on Magic Johnson, he of the baby skyhook, the player most responsible for vanquishing my Boston Celtics twice on the NBA's biggest stage. Yes, Magic Johnson has always been […]Read More

What Does Green Do For You?
Jeff Green was, at times last season, a tantalizing revelation who could completely take over a game and dominate his opponent on both ends of the court. He was also a player who could disappear as quickly as he'd come, barely scoring in double figures a night after looking like Michael Jordan reincarnate. Maddening to […]Read More Jeff Green
Sullinger 2.0
Jared Sullinger is back. That's a welcome sign, no question about it, but let's just hope his back is back. Sullinger slid out of the NBA Draft Lottery and into the Celtics laps due to concerns around that problematic back of his, and it seemed to be a non-issue for most of the season. But […]Read More Jared Sullinger

With only a few nights this year we did not book a rental but checked on TA for hotels and found the Tiki on the Beach - fortunately! This is a very nice and well kept small hotel, consisting of small apartments. Ours care directly onto the beach, some steps down or private stairs and we have been in the sand. Everything is clean and cared off. Guests are so nice and educated to put the chairs they have used during the day back in place where they took them. Beach-chair covers (wich pockets for your book/drink etc.) and beach towels are provided. There is a BBQ in the courtyard and a very clean and good washer/dryer for common use. Front office is not occupied around the clock, but you get access to the computer there and the library with your apartment key. Staff was very efficient and friendly and accomodating.
The dishes and pans in the kitchen are clean and fit the interior decor in tropical style. There is a two-plate burner, but it was not adequate for cooking, not even for eggs for breakfast. The manager however told us to use the electric plate, which did serve very well. The kitchen however is rather small for extensive cooking, but with a BBQ available and with so many good and inexpensive restaurants this is not a problem.
The screened porch with a beautiful sunset view was where we spent most of our time, very nice and it's good to be able to get a little shade once in a while.
This is in a calmer part of the beach, but you can take a bus to Time Square - just make sure the timetable is correct, as during off-season they are infrequent.
We enjoyed very much our stay - only thing that was disturbing was that the guests above us seemed to be able to do without a lot of sleep - they ran around their apartment almost the whole night and the construction is so that you cant overhear this.
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Otel so you can book your Tiki on the Beach reservations with confidence. We help millions of travelers each month to find the perfect hotel for both vacation and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

Smoking weed on the steps of the US Capitol may soon result in little more than a slap on the wrist: the Washington, D.C. City Council has announced that it may soon decriminalize small quantities of marijuana possession in the US capital.

We all see with no difficulty at all where this is going.The enforcement of any drug laws is criminal.It's always been a scam and a lie based on racism,cash and a huge cash grab.They will continue to utilize drug laws to put down minorities and jail minorities in states where racism is a way of life.They still have that 80% bed fill promised to the private prison industry.American justice is an oxymoron.
There are way more serious crimes for the police to work in dc that don't include harassing regular otherwise law abiding citizens who just happen to smoke pot. Legalization is past due this failed drug war has cost us to much to fight a harmless plant. Human beings have used pot safely for centuries without a problem. I find it interesting that it was only made illegal when it cut into corporate profits and even today the biggest supporters of continued prohabition are corporations not the american citizens
Well, DC can't. They are a federal land, not a state. They have no choice but to obey fed law.
What a great way to bring the public on side, its just a ploy to distract from the real issues.
It is time we stop putting sick people in prison for taking a drug that works for them. Let's look at a PDR and see how many drugs there are for each disease. Now it all makes sense. Each body has a certain medicine that works for them. Is is up to us to decide who gets what works for others...or is it up to us as to what works For us?
Wow celestine prophecy really opened my eyes. Great book yes it could save the world.

Absolutely no government on the planet can place a law on a naturally grown plant, Simple as that.
As Assange once said, marijuana is about as addictive as potatoes.
Free the weed!
Cannabis can save the future of the Planet, and our future too. Why risk to lose everythink for any money, when whit cannabis the world go out of ECOlogic-nomic crisis?
"riwen" is lying. Marijuana use has no effect on I.Q. The simplistic attempt to correlate marijuana use in Jamaica to "low IQ" is absurd. Marijuana is illegal in Jamaica, yet use is widespread. All you have done is prove that prohibition is useless at reducing supply or demand.
Canadian researchers have estimated the following social costs per user per year:
But ... how to enjoy your "high" when GESTAPO is listening ?
anything short of all out legalization is not good enough
marijuana can increase creativity and understanding also.
The criminals in DC pass laws to determine who is a criminal in the private sector

There are folks in this country who would consider me to be a race traitor. I married a Hispanic woman from Mexico, but here in the U.S., I'm called white.
On the other hand, there was a powerful empire in Europe 60 years ago that might have sent me to my death because, as a Slovene, I just wouldn't have been quite white enough.
My kids are mudbloods (it's a Harry Potter term for wizards that derive from muggle, or non-magic parents).
My ancestors on my mother's side fought valiantly in the War Between the States. BTW, it wasn't the Civil War. The Yankees got it wrong. Guess which side my family was on. My ancestors were too poor to own anyone, but I guess that didn't matter. It was the principle that one person ought to be able to own another that they fought for. (I'm guessing that they weren't very well educated, but that's just speculation on my part.)
My grandmother -- we're back on the Slovene immigrant side now (sorry if you can't keep up) was featured in a man/woman-on-the-street interview during the Hough riots in Cleveland, with her mug shot, no less, saying, "(Totally unacceptable N-word)s no good."
I've heard people in my church declare their scorn for other types of Christians. Catholics this, Baptists that. I left the religion that baptised me rather than put up with that garbage.
I have two aunts who've been forbidden by their churches to eat with each other. Mind you, they're still members of the same religious sect. It's just that one chose to change her church. She changed buildings, not sects, nothing more. Now they are allowed to talk but they can't eat together. Look, you tell me about that one.
Racism (and sexism, sectism, whatever-else-ism) has been, is, and always will be real. Not just here, but everywhere. IMHO, some folks need to be angry at other folks.
I'm at an advantaged position as a European-American (because my grandparents were smart enough to leave Europe before the Nazis would have executed them) and my kids look every bit the part as well, even though they're more Hispanic than anything else.
Problem is: I don't care about any of this. I'd never make a decision on a friend, an employee or a wife based on ethnic information. Look, if you have a problem with the woman I married then you have the problem, not me.
Remember that line in Warren Beatty's "Bullworth?" Something like: "We all got to keep ******* each other until we're all one color.
I haven't seen the movie, but racism sets me off. I grew up in a racially charged city. My father was the only man in his family who wouldn't tolerate racism while every one of the cousins in my generation (37 of them) were immersed in it. Thanks to my old man, I just never caught the racism disease.

Posted Monday, May 7, 2012 --- 9:50 a.m.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- The leading Democratic candidates in the race to take on Republican Gov. Scott Walker in a recall election next month are making their final campaign stops before Tuesday's primary.
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett planned stops Monday in Sheboygan and Kenosha. A Marquette University poll released last week showed him with a 17-point lead over Kathleen Falk, the former Dane County executive who is the favored candidate of the major unions that helped spur the recall against Walker.
Falk planned to spend the final day before the primary campaigning in Milwaukee.
Two other Democrats running are Secretary of State Doug La Follette and state Sen. Kathleen Vinehout. They have failed to gain traction in the race.
The winner will move on to the June 5 general election.

What Your Favorite Holiday Says About Your Personality
That pitter-patter you feel in your heart every time you think about dressing a turkey, decking the halls with boughs of holly, or getting down to "Thriller," could tell you more about yourself than you might imagine. "What people love about life is on display when it comes to what holiday they prefer the most," says Kit Yarrow, a consumer research psychologist and professor at Golden Gate University, and author of Gen Buy and the upcoming Decoding the New Consumer Mind. Here, she breaks down what type of person you might bewhether it's New Year's Eve or Valentine's Day that sends you into celebration overdrive. By Jennifer Hirshlag
If you love Earth Day, you may be a meliorist
Yarrow likens you to a megaphone. That's because you worship the ground you stand on, and you take pride in rallying others to worship it, too.
"Most holidays are recognized for bringing humans together, and we enjoy celebrating them because we yearn for those times when we are connected," Yarrow says. "But there are secondary holidays on which we honor something simply to remind people about what's important. They may not have the same emotional relevancy, but they are still relevant."

Confirmed Genetic Abnormality Carriers
To access a list of known genetic carriers please use the following links.
Partial to almost complete lack of hair. Affected calves are often born with very short, fine, kinky hair that may fall out leaving bare spots or areas particularly susceptible to rubbing. The condition may vary in expression as the animal matures and is usually less noticeable in older animals. The haircoat color will sometimes appear "frosted" or "silverish." Tail switch may be underdeveloped.
Carrier Hereford bulls or females when mated to black cattle can produce offspring with a haircoat that is gray, smokey or chocolate color.
Idiopathic Epilepsy
Age of onset or first seizure can be variable, ranging from birth to several months of age. Occurrence and persistence of seizures may be influenced by environmental stressors such as temperature extremes or increased physical activity. Upon initial onset of seizure episodes individuals will typically lie on their side with all limbs extended in a rigid state. Manual flexing of the limbs is possible, but return to the extended position occurs after release. Seizure episodes may last from several minutes to more than an hour.
When conducting online searches, you may see animals which have codes listed in curly brackets {} between the animal and registration number. These codes represent either awards the animal has received or genetic abnormalities the animal is known to be tested free of or a carrier of. Currently used codes are listed below.
- DOD=Dams of Distinction Award
- SOD=Sire of Distinction Award
- CHB=CHB Sire Award
- HYC=Hypotrichosis Carrier
- HYF=Hypotrichosis Free (tested and results indicate animal is not a carrier)
- DLF=Dilutor Free (tested and results indicate animal is not a carrier)
- DLC=Dilutor Carrier
- IEF=Idiopathic Epilepsy Free (tested and results indicate animal is not a carrier)
- IEC=Idiopathic Epilepsy Carrier

Gallery | The 5 Best (and 5 Worst) Movies Based on Toys
- BEST - 5. 'Masters of the Universe' (Gary Goddard, 1987)
It's unwise to classify "Masters of the Universe" as a great film. Or even a good film, really. But in the low hanging fruit arena of the movies-based-on-toys, it does get a number of things right: mostly the big-screen equivalent of what it was like to bash brittle plastic toys together in an imaginary battle for the salvation of the cosmos. The film starred the colossally underrated Dolph Lundgren as He-Man and Frank Langella as Skeletor. There was also an incredibly young and adorable Courtney Cox in there somewhere. The plot was pretty nonsensical, but we can't help but think fondly to the movie's crude but effective visual effects, Bill Conti's lush, "Star Wars"-y score, and a large chunk of the narrative revolved around what we remember being a very glitzy synthesizer that is probably now owned by Daft Punk.
- BEST - 4. 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' (Stephen Sommers, 2009)
While the sort-of sequel, last year's "G.I. Joe: Retaliation," may do a technically better job at replicating the sensation of playing with the army toys (and watching the cartoon spin-off and reading the comic books and...), the original film is still superior, at least in terms of craftsmanship and storytelling. "Rise of Cobra" comes complete with a number of standout set pieces, the best of which being an accelerated chase through the streets of a futuristic Paris where a pair of the Joes (including a then-relatively-unknown Channing Tatum) don robotic suits that let them hop around like, well, a kid playing with his favorite army toys. All other accessories (including realistically drawn characters and believable dialogue) sold separately.
- BEST - 3. 'Mars Attacks!' (Tim Burton, 1996)
In 1962, a series of collectible trading cards, which traced the invasion of planet earth by a horde of skull-faced Martians, who took gleeful delight in the dismemberment, atomization, and torture of the human race, was released, to the shock and consternation of parents everywhere. So, of course Tim Burton had to turn it into a lavish Hollywood blockbuster that more or less imploded, like some kind of Martian neutron bomb, on impact. What makes "Mars Attacks!" so good is the fidelity to the sensation of thumbing through a pack of these cards and going "Oh man" and moving along quickly. With its fractured, Irwin Allen-esque narrative charting a group of disparate characters as they deal with the extraterrestrial menace, the movie had a joyful, four-color spirit that is simply irrepressible. Sadly, the film's box-office failure meant that the sequel, "Dinosaurs Attack!," based on another series of cards, did not roar to life.
- BEST - 2. 'Transformers' (Michael Bay, 2007)
These mighty morphing, box office-conquering robot aliens originally started out as clunky kids toys that would awkwardly shape-shift from some mundane shape (usually a car or truck) into a powerful robo-warrior. What made the original film such a treat was that it didn't get bogged down by unnecessary "mythology" (the sequels would take care of that), instead focusing on the relationship between a young human (Shia LeBeouf) and his first car, who just so happens to be one of the aforementioned robo-warriors named Bumblebee. Sure there was some kind of doodad that everyone, good Autobot and evil Decepticon alike, wanted, but that was almost beside the point. Instead, it tapped into executive producer Steven Spielberg's early Amblin films, when some otherworldly entity would befriend an earthly, changing both of their lives forever. The simplicity and grace of this original move would pave the way for the much louder, much nastier sequels, but for a movie that was thought of as something of a joke, it holds up remarkably well. Wish I could say the same thing for my 25-year-old Transformers figures.
- BEST - 1. 'Clue' (Jonathan Lynn, 1985)
"Clue" is maybe the most beloved modern board game (after "Monopoly," which Sir Ridley Scott was thinking of turning into a movie), and the movie is a testament to the power of its simple original concept: it's a locked door murder mystery wherein a small cluster of guests is systematically murdered one-by-one until the murderer is identified and stopped. With a script co-written by John Landis and a production overseen by John Carpenter confederate (and ex-wife) Debra Hill, the movie has palpable mood, easily mixing dread with screwball comedy (provided by its breathless cast, which includes Tim Curry, Lesley Ann Warren, Michael McKean, Christopher Lloyd, Martin Mull and Madeline Kahn). But maybe the best part of "Clue" was how it was originally packaged with one of four different endings, simulating the game's open-ended nature, which would be selected at random. Later, television and home video releases shoved all of the endings on to the tail of the film, but can you imagine how much fun it would have been to compare which ending of "Clue" you got? It would be like, well, playing the board game.
- WORST - 5. 'Battleship' (Peter Berg, 2012)
Clearly built in the mode of "Transformers," this big-budget Hasbro "adaptation" had the classic board game, where you face off against a friend in a vaguely Cold War-y battle of wits, was turned into a loud, bombastic action movie where aquatic alien invaders interrupt a Naval testing game. So it's like "Top Gun" meets "Independence Day" (at least on paper). While the movie certainly has its charms, and some high profile defenders in the likes of former Entertainment Weekly film critic Lisa Schwartzbaum and Huffington Post entertainment writer Mike Ryan, it's kind of dopey and features one of the lousiest musician-turned-actor performances in Rihanna's tough-as-nails weapons specialist. Plus, the aliens look so, so dumb. The ten-minute sequence where the movie basically becomes the game is sort of spectacular, in an I-can't-believe-they're-really-doing-this kind of way.
- WORST - 4. 'The Care Bears Movie' (Arna Selznick, 1985)
This shoddily animated, barely coherent feature based on the abundant teddy bear line (its production was co-financed by Kenner, General Mills, and American Greetings), actually managed to out gross Disney's animated offering for the year, which indirectly led to the buckled-down Disney Renaissance. So, at least we have that to be thankful for. Otherwise, this sugary, sing-song-y mess is best left to the hazy shadows of nostalgia (and not much more).
- WORST - 3. 'The Garbage Pail Kids' (Rod Amateau, 1987)
Talk about the snake that eats its own tail: The "Garbage Pail Kids" property was a series of trading cards (not unlike "Mars Attacks!") that was produced mainly to gross out parents who would happen upon the cards. They were ostensibly a parody of the uber-popular Cabbage Patch Kids dolls (which would also inspire their own movie), but witty satire wasn't on the menu. Instead, they were just a series of tasteless gags. The movie made things even more stomach-churning by bringing the characters to full three-dimensional glory in a live action adaptation. The result is a slipshod production that attempts to be like a back alley version of the classic Amblin movies except totally, totally horrible, like if "Gremlins" was unwatchable filth.
- WORST - 2. 'Dungeons & Dragons' (Courtney Solomon, 2000)
Before New Line had the "Lord of the Rings" films, they attempted an epic fantasy in "Dungeons & Dragons," based on the role-playing game where virginal nerds toss around an eight-sided die in their parents' basement. (I've never understood it and I never will.) This movie still has some of the dodgiest special effects seen on the big screen in the last couple of decades, with computerized vistas that would make the guys who developed "Myst" chortle in embarrassment, plus an oddball cast that included Marlon Wayans, Jeremy Irons, Thora Birch, and Richard O'Brien (YES! From "Rocky Horror Picture Show!") Just thinking about this movie makes me wish a wizard would cast a level five forgetfulness spell on me.
- WORST - 1. 'Bratz' (Sean McNamara, 2007)
The crumbling sound you're hearing is feminism being set back a couple of decades. "Bratz," based on the line of snobby, Barbie-esque fashion dolls, was overseen by former Marvel big shot Avi Arad, and, at one point, was set to include choreography and wardrobe designs by Paula Abdul. Abdul didn't stick around, but the general conceit of the property -- that looking like a tart and getting boys to like you are the chief concerns for any young girl coming of age in America, did. There is so much offensive material in "Bratz," not just towards women by the general human race, that if I started to list it I'd probably die of old age before this piece was completed. Regardless, for just a taste of the toxic vileness of "Bratz," look up the trailer. And just think to yourself: What would Paula Abdul do?

Mike Schpitz - DInner's Hot
Artist: Mike Schpitz
Producer: Timbaland
Album: Mike Murder
Avg Rating: 4.0 ( 54 votes )
Everyone has an opinion, but most of them are wrong. We all know I'm an exception to this rule, so let me share an opinion so that you won't have to live through another regretful decision (sorry I couldn't get back to you in time in regards to the head tattoo, Birdman): do not sleep on Mike Schpitz. The fan base, and the ratings, for DJBooth freestyle veteran Mr. Schpitz have been growing lately, a trend I fully expect to continue on third premiere leak, Dinner's Hot. Mike does well to weave his extremely witty vocabulary - "my pound cake turn your head to red velvet" - over a slowly clapping Timbaland beat first heard on Jay-Z's It's Hot. If you can keep up with a classic track from The Life and Times of S. Carter, then you're alright by me. If you're hungry for more after Dinner's Hot, be sure to download Schpitz's DJBooth-sponsored mixtape Mike Murder when it hits our homepage on May 26.

Why Lynne and Brian chose North Caicos
After visiting Provo with my family, we fell in love with the Turks & Caicos Islands and wanted to find a home on one of the quieter neighboring islands. Some of the reasons for loving the T & C Islands are:
- The weather- constant tropical temperatures & beautiful breezes
- The most amazingly soft sandy beaches & warm turquoise water
- Easy access from the US, english speaking islands and US currency accepted
- Little to no crime
We chose this particular property because it was the nearest villa to the water's edge on North Caicos. It's situated on a nearly deserted 7 mile long stretch of beautiful beach. You can hear the surf all day long and we have beautiful views because the villa is two-stories high. We walked every inch of the beach before making the final decision. The sand is so soft and free of rocks in front of this particular property and because of the reef, there isn't any seaweed! This is really a great place to get away from it all, unplug, unwind and re-connect with the ones you love.
What makes this villa unique
- Middle Caicos is an easy drive for a great day trip - explore caves & visit the beach at Dragon Cay
- Beach-combing - spend the day walking the beach, collecting shells (including some huge conch shells) or build a sand castle in front of your private villa
- Swimming in the warm, seaweed free turquoise water
- Local foods, customs & traditions
- Unrivaled place to unplug and unwind
- Unique view of a shipwreck from our beach
- Napping or reading in one of the two hammocks under the palm trees
- Sun bathing in one of the six lounge chairs
- Stargazing at night - it's not unusual to see a shooting star

Smiles tell the story at Mission of Mercy
By Dave Bergmeier
More than 1,000 patients wore smiles as they were recipients of free dental care thanks to a Kansas Mission of Mercy project Feb. 28 to March 1 in Dodge City, Kan.
The Western State Bank Expo Center, on the south side of the community of about 27,000 people, served as a large-scale waiting and patient area. Meals were provided for those who came to use the service.
Richard "Rick" McFadden, Dodge City, a dentist for more than 25 years, said patients lined up at 10 p.m. each night and the expo center was able to set up an area where patients could stay and be protected from the cold and wintry weather. A waiting room with 1,000 folding chairs opened about 3 a.m. and registrations were started.
A physician and nurses helped with medical screenings in a triage area. Patients could eat a biscuits and gravy breakfast, beginning at about 4 a.m., and they could also eat lunch. They also had an opportunity to learn about dental hygiene basics.
The Dodge City dentist said the Mission of Mercy is an appropriate name. People tend to associate missions with overseas trips.
"A lot of people say why go elsewhere when we have so much need here," McFadden said as he looked around the temporary mercy clinic and saw the need. "That's what kept us going."
During the two-day clinic 1,182 people were helped with an estimated value of $803,590. On Feb. 28, about 645 people were helped with a value of $518,660. Patients and dental care providers left early in light of a winter weather storm on the afternoon of March 1.
Patients ranged from young children to one man who was age 90.
The event was well-publicized and McFadden also had gone to Fort Dodge, Kan., on Feb. 24, and told elderly veterans who lived there about the mission and he encouraged them to use the service.
The overall process was designed to streamline the process for patients who needed the service, he said. All the patients were asked, from a dental standpoint, was to give an honest assessment of their need.
"Extractions were the most common," McFadden said. "We were getting people who had chronic pain. They cannot afford treatment and the problem they had affects their quality of life."
Filling cavities and teeth cleanings were other services provided, he said. Each patient during registration was asked to prioritize his or her need. If time allowed, a patient could have a second priority addressed, but he or she had to wait until the other high-priority patients' needs were finished.
As reported earlier by the High Plains Journal, dental care is considered a top priority for those in the industry who also recognize that the expansiveness and other issues make it difficult to meet needs of some people who live in rural areas.
Brett Roufs, a Newton, Kan., dentist since 1996, drove about 150 miles westward to participate in the clinic. Roufs has participated in 11 of the 13 missions. On Feb. 28, more than 80 children were a part of the clinic and there were only three no-shows, which was an important indicator of the need, he said.
Hygienists, dentists, oral surgeons, and related services were all part of a team with a capability of serving more than 1,000 people a day, if needed. There were 113 dentists and 93 hygienists signed up to help with the two-day clinic, according to Greg Hill, executive director with the Kansas Dental Charitable Foundation, Topeka, Kan. Providers came from all regions of the state.
Temporary tents were in place for children and extractions areas with patient privacy in mind, Roufs said.
Most of the dental equipment was supplied by the America's Dentist Care Foundation, a charitable organization that helps the Missions of Mercy in 26 states. Some dentists and hygienists brought their own specialized equipment, the dentist said.
"It is hard to put into words or explain all my thoughts," Roufs said. "I feel it is something that helps a community overall with its health and I love to help and make a difference."
Helping people and hearing them say "thanks" was heart-warming to him.
"I think the providers enjoy giving back, knowing that they are making a difference in the lives of each individual person who is treated," Hill said. "People think of the Kansas Mission of Mercy clinic as big numbers. The providers see the individual patients."
McFadden said the idea of the clinic was to help as many people as possible. When people were registered only the most vital information was sought and people at any income level were accepted.
McFadden was a co-chair of the local planning committee, along with Richard Stein, also a Dodge City dentist.
Both men said the volunteer spirit from the Dodge City region was instrumental in the success of the Kansas Mission of Mercy and was recognized by dental care providers. Almost all materials and supplies were purchased locally.
"They had nothing but good to say about it," McFadden said.
"Dodge City did a wonderful job," Roufs said.
About $160,000 was raised to help with the project, which exceeded the planning goal of $120,000.
Organizers believe the Kansas Mission of Mercy helps address an important health issue. Oral care is critical to a person's health, Roufs said.
"It's the first place where food goes is into your mouth," Roufs said. "We like to say, if we have a healthy mouth we'll have a healthy body."
Also, he said relieving the pain from a toothache can help a person's demeanor, which is also important to their quality of life. Dental care can help patients and physicians catch early signs of cancer as well as heart and blood circulation issues, the dentists said.
Since its inception in 2003, the Kansas Mission of Mercy has served about 24,000 patients and provided about $14.5 million in free dental care, Hill said.
The first project, in 2003, was in Garden City, Kan. The 2015 mission is planned for Salina, Kan.
"We usually begin planning at least a year out," Hill said. "We've already had meetings in Salina to begin to get ready. About six months out, things really begin taking shape."

Back to Global Dialogue main page
This dialogue addressed the impacts of the crisis and assesses the macroeconomic and financial policy responses required both to address the crisis and to manage the growth and distribution effects. Participants included ministers of finance, central bank governors, and financial regulators from Argentina, Turkey, Poland, Hungary, Russia, South Africa, Indonesia, Philippines, and Republic of Korea. Professors Guillermo Calvo of Columbia University, and Gerard Caprio of Williams College provided initial remarks on the policy challenges facing each of the participating countries.
The global dialogue addressed the following questions:
Macroeconomic impacts and policy responses
What are the main impacts of the global financial crisis (and rise and fall of commodity prices) on the real economy:
• What is the effect on current account and financing, international reserves• Have exports been affected through loss of access to trade finance or through falling demand?• What is the impact on tax revenues and other fiscal effects (public debt)?• On GDP growth?• On Credit growth?• Exchange rate pressures?
What macroeconomic policies have you implemented in your country and why?
• If real GDP growth is slowing down, what policies are being used to stimulate the economy, if any?• How are fiscal pressures being contained? What are the main constraints to using fiscal policy as a discretionary tool?• What about credit/monetary policy and exchange rates?• Are there measures used to manage the trade balance? What about the capital account? Are these seen to be short term (when would they be removed/changed)?• How are ongoing public investments being managed?
What are your expectations about your economy in the short, medium and longer term?
• How would your policies change depending on the duration of the crisis?• What about the long-term prospects for food and fuel prices? Is this a concern?
Do you think better coordination amongst OECD countries in policies could have averted this crisis? What about non-OECD countries?
• What kind of coordination would have helped your country/regional situation?• What lessons have you learned in crisis management from other developing countries?
Financial Sector Impact and Responses
Which segments of the financial market are most at risk? What is the short-term situation in your country with regard to systemic and/or institution specific risks?
In your country, what has been/will be the short-term impact of the financial sector crisis with regard to key Asset and Liability components of financial institutions' Balance Sheet; Income Statement, and Cash Flow? For example:
• Increase in NPLs (related to trade finance, housing loan, corporate loans, etc)• Valuation and Credit Losses in Investment Portfolio• Liquidity Constraints: Dollar and Domestic Currency• Credit Demand and Lending Standards • Loss Provisioning and Capital Cushions• Funding Costs, Constraints and Refinancing Risks (e.g. interbank borrowings, retail deposits, debt and equity market funding, and term structure of liabilities)
What measures have already been put in place by monetary, supervisory and fiscal authorities to help financial institutions cope with changes in their liquidity and solvency situation and with regard to ability to maintain credit intermediation? Are additional measures planned?
