Moving MBR to Windows 7 drive
Alright, so here is the lowdown...I have two internal hard drives (we will call them 7 and XP, for simplicities sake ). I originally had XP installed on one of the drives, while the other was a storage drive. To make my transition to 7 smoother, I installed 7 on the storage drive, basically dual-booting for a little while. Now I would like to format and clean out the XP drive and make that my storage drive - but my system is still viewing the XP drive as the "active, system drive" and won't allow me to format it. Even if I unplug that drive and attempt to boot only to the 7 drive, it won't let me. I have tried startup repair with the 7 DVD at least a dozen times, as well as running the bootsect command to get the MBR onto the 7 drive, but no luck yet (and I have tried both with the XP drive plugged in as well as unplugged).
There has got to be a way for me to get the boot record on the 7 drive and allow it to boot by itself, right? Without me having to reinstall 7? Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

There are two ways listed using Win 7 disk.
Disconnecting the XP hard drive may be necessary I would think.

1. Use this program (the bootable CD version - on the left side of the webpage) to mark your XP partition inactive and mark the Win7 partition as active. You find the settings in the Partition tab > Modify.
2, Create an MBR following this tutorial:
3. Boot into Win7 and delete the XP partition. Then you can create whatever you like in the freespace.

Another method:
Mark Win7 partition Active using Diskpart: Partition - Mark as Active
Unplug the XP HD temporarily so it doesn't interfere. Set Win7 HD as first HD to boot in BIOS setup, after DVD drive.
Boot the Win7 DVD Repair console, accept any offered repair, then boot back in to run Startup Repair up to 3 separate times with reboots until Win7 starts on its own. Startup Repair - Run 3 Separate Times
Power down to plug back in XP HD, use Diskpart from Command Line to wipe XP HD of all code, or delete the XP partition using Diskpart command to Delete Partition Override. Disk - Clean and Clean All with Diskpart Command

Hello PackerFanatic, welcome to Seven Forums!
Everyone makes this seem so hard; everything needed to do this is in this one tutorial at the link below, especially from the situation you're in; though if the first attempt with all HDDs connected doesn't work, disconnect the XP HDD and give that a go.

Be sure to post back to keep us informed.

Alright, looking a little closer at my Win7 drive...it looks like it is setup as a logical, extended partition and it won't allow me to mark it as the "active partition". I imagine the only way to make it the primary partition would be to format it as such.

The AIRS/AMSU/HSB suite of instruments is flying on board of Aqua satellite, and thus their "overpass" pattern is this of Aqua.
The AIRS/AMSU/HSB suite constitutes an innovative atmospheric sounding system of infrared, microwave and visible sensors. The infrared radiance data product is stable to 10 mK/yr and accurate to better than 200 mK. This product is the most accurate and stable set of hyperspectral infrared radiance spectra measurements made in space to date, and it meets the criteria identified by the National Research Council for climate data records. The geophysical products provide daily global temperature profiles at an accuracy of 1 K per 1 km thick layer in the troposphere and moisture profiles at an accuracy of 20% per 2 km thick layer in the lower troposphere (20% - 60% in the upper troposphere). With the Version 5 release the Level-2 and Level-3 products also include the burden and profiles of the minor gases: O3 (Level-2 only), CO and CH4.
The accuracy of the temperature and humidity profiles derived from AIRS/AMSU/HSB is recognized as improving forecasts from meteorological prediction models. NOAA administrator Lautenbacher has reported that "the AIRS instrument has provided the most significant increase in forecast improvement in this time range of any other single instrument." Currently researchers are using AIRS data products to validate climate models and to test their representations of critical climate feedbacks.
The AIRS Data Support at the GES DISC DAAC provides science and data support to assist others in understanding, ordering, and using the AIRS/AMSU/HSB data products.
By registering as an AIRS Data User, you will receive announcements of discovered data product features and caveats which are directly applicable to your area of research. You will also receive the AIRS newsletters.

The dense, crushing expansiveness of Pelican's four-song debut EP was an incisive slice through heavy metal's bloated corpse, with its pinnacle track — the appropriately titled "Mammoth" — being little more than a plunging meditation on a single bruising riff. Following that release with 2003's Australasia album, Pelican proved they could be as imaginative as they could be punishing, delivering six epic instrumental numbers, three of which broke the ten-minute mark. Since then, though, something has happened. The no-vocals-just-riffs scene has expanded considerably, with many bands far smarter and more elegant than Pelican stepping in to give the band a run for their money in the "epic metal instrumental" stakes. Thus, we find our boys living in Los Angeles (instead of their hometown Chicago), touring with Circa Survive and Thrice (rather than, say, Red Sparowes) and delivering albums of five-minute songs (that still don't manage to be as powerful as the brief "Mammoth"). Hanging around post-hardcore bands may mean that Pelican is still the smartest bunch of kids in the room, but they're also starting to look a bit like the guy who graduated high school a few years ago and still likes hitting on 10th-grade girls.

Denise Masterson, A First-shift Operator At GE Appliances, Works On The New Topload Washer At Appliance Park In Louisville. (Photo: GE)
(NYSE:GE) — GE's Louisville, Ky. washing machine factory that has been spinning out topload washers since 1953 has added another cycle to its production — "overdrive." The factory that now employs 928 will keep producing current models at a rapid pace, and has started production of the most energy-efficient, feature-rich, topload washing machine in its history, which added another 150 new U.S. jobs in the process.
Denise Masterson, a first-shift operator at GE Appliances, works on the new topload washer at Appliance Park in Louisville. (Photo: GE)
The popularity of high-efficiency (HE) washing machines that drove the growth of frontload washing machines for the last 10 years has spread to topload configurations, which is now the fastest-growing segment of the washing-machine industry. This makes GE's investment in new HE topload washing machines a smart business move and welcome news to the local community. In fact, over the last couple of years, sales of HE topload washers, which sell in the higher price points of topload units, have increased, while sales of frontload washers have declined over the same period.
To be categorized as a HE washer, the machines use an impeller instead of an agitator, which allows them to use less water and energy than a traditional washer. "GE's new HE topload is around 60 percent more water efficient than a traditional topload washer," said Heather Koyama, GE Appliances topload washing machine product manager. "There is no agitator in an HE washer, so the extra capacity lets the washer hold more clothes. The higher spin speeds allow more moisture to be removed from the clothes, which saves energy in the dryer."

Monday's Winners & Losers: Bear Stearns
An increased bid for Bear Stearns (BSC) lifted financial stocks Monday as JPMorgan (JPM) upped its price for the firm to appease angry shareholders.
The original $2-a-share bid was pushed to $10 with the blessing of the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York's $30 billion special financing initially linked to the transaction was altered so that JPMorgan will take on the first $1 billion of any losses suffered by Bear Stearns. Bear employees, who own almost a third of the company, vowed to fight the original $2 offer, and Morgan was hoping the new number might persuade them to vote for the deal.
Bear Stearns shares skyrocketed 90%, or $5.27, to $11.18, and JPMorgan ticked up 1.4% to $46.62.
Graphics chip maker Nvidia (NVDA) added $1.51, or 8.2%, to $20.03 after Barron's said the company is a "cheap play on the rise of visual computing".Investor fears over the increasing competition the company faces and the impact of the economic slowdown are overblown, the article said. Radio One (ROIAK) gained 58.6% to $1.76. The Lanham, Md., radio broadcasting company announced it would sell KRBV, its Los Angeles station, to Bonneville International for about $137.5 million. Radio One also said its board had authorized a buyback for up to $150 million of stock through 2009. Shares of BlackBerry maker Research In Motion (RIMM) were up $6.89, or 6.6%, to $111.83 after the T-Mobile announced it has started selling the BlackBerry 8820 smartphone nationwide. The BlackBerry 8820 device has built-in GPS, support for T-Mobile's HotSpot service for Wi-fi calling and claims to be RIM's thinnest BlackBerry smartphone yet. Elsewhere, Fitch Ratings said it plans to maintain its ratings on the world's largest bond insurer, MBIA (MBI), even though MBIA had requested that the rating be withdrawn and decided to withhold nonpublic information. Fitch is the only one of the three major U.S. credit rating agencies that still has the "AAA" rating of MBIA's insurance arm on review for downgrade. MBIA traded up 12% to $14.17. Cambrex (CMB) disclosed the recall of one of its customers' products. While the company didn't disclose the name of the customer, a few analysts pointed to the recall of UCB's Parkinson's disease treatment patch, Neupro. It contains an ingredient called ritigotine, which Cambrex makes. Belgium-based UCB said the patch will not be available until at least May. Canaccord Adams analyst Karl Keegan said it may take longer for the patch to return to market and lowered his Neupro sales estimate to $25 million from $100 million. First Analysis Securities downgraded Cambrex to equal weight from overweight. The stock traded down $1.31, or 16.4%, to $6.70 on Monday. Neurogen (NRGN) tumbled after disclosing that its annual report includes a "going concern" qualification from the company's auditor. The qualification refers to auditors questioning Neurogen's ability to maintain its status as a functioning business. Shares edged down 31 cents, or 10%, to $2.77. Synplicity (SYNP), a Sunnyvale, Calif.-based maker of software for the design and verification of semiconductors, rocketed up 47.6% to $7.85. On Thursday, Synplicity announced it was being acquired by Synopsys (SNPS) for $227 million, or $8 a share.

Report: No proof veterans died because of delays
The Veterans Affairs Department says investigators have found no proof that delays in care caused any deaths at a VA hospital in Phoenix, deflating an explosive allegation that helped expose a troubled health care system in which veterans waited months for appointments while employees falsified records to cover up the delays.
Associated Press
The Veterans Affairs Department says investigators have found no proof that delays in care caused any deaths at a VA hospital in Phoenix, deflating an explosive allegation that helped expose a troubled health care system in which veterans waited months for appointments while employees falsified records to cover up the delays.
Revelations that as many as 40 veterans died while awaiting care at the Phoenix VA hospital rocked the agency last spring, bringing to light scheduling problems and allegations of misconduct at other hospitals as well. The scandal led to the resignation of former VA Secretary Eric Shinseki. In July, Congress approved spending an additional $16 billion to help shore up the system.
The VA's Office of Inspector General has been investigating the delays for months and shared a draft report of its findings with VA officials.
In a written memorandum about the report, VA Secretary Robert A. McDonald said, "It is important to note that while OIG's case reviews in the report document substantial delays in care, and quality-of-care concerns, OIG was unable to conclusively assert that the absence of timely quality care caused the death of these veterans."
The inspector general's final report has not yet been issued. The inspector general runs an independent office within the VA.
Deputy VA Secretary Sloan Gibson confirmed the findings in an interview with The Associated Press. Gibson, however, stressed that veterans were still waiting too long for care, an issue the agency was working to fix.
"They looked to see if there was any causal relationship associated with the delay in care and the death of these veterans and they were unable to find one. But from my perspective, that don't make it OK," Gibson said. "Veterans were waiting too long for care and there were things being done, there were scheduling improprieties happening at Phoenix and frankly at other locations as well. Those are unacceptable."
In April, Dr. Samuel Foote, who had worked for the Phoenix VA for more than 20 years before retiring in December, brought the allegations to Congress.
Foote accused Arizona VA leaders of collecting bonuses for reducing patient wait times. But, he said, the purported successes resulted from data manipulation rather than improved service for veterans. He said up to 40 patients died while awaiting care.
In May, the inspector general's office found that 1,700 veterans were waiting for primary care appointments at the Phoenix VA but did not show up on the wait list. "Until that happens, the reported wait times for these veterans has not started," said a report issued in May.
Gibson said the VA reached out to all 1,700 veterans in Phoenix and scheduled care for them. However, he acknowledged there are still 1,800 veterans in Phoenix who requested appointments but will have to wait at least 90 days for care.
The VA has said it was firing three executives of the Phoenix VA hospital. The agency has also said it planned to fire two supervisors and discipline four other employees in Colorado and Wyoming accused of falsifying health care data.
Gibson said he expected the list of disciplined employees to grow. He took over as acting VA secretary when Shinseki resigned and returned to his job as deputy secretary after McDonald was confirmed.
"The fundamental point here is, we are taking bold and decisive action to fix these problems because it's unacceptable," Gibson said. "We owe veterans, we owe the American people, an apology. We've delivered that apology. We'll keep delivering that apology for our failure to meet their expectations for timely and effective health care."
To help reduce backlogs, the VA is sending more veterans to private doctors for care.
Congress approved $10 billion in emergency spending over three years to pay private doctors and other health professionals to care for veterans who can't get timely appointments at VA medical facilities, or who live more than 40 miles from one.
The new law includes $5 billion for hiring more VA doctors, nurses and other medical staff and $1.3 billion to open 27 new VA clinics across the country.
The legislation also makes it easier to fire hospital administrators and senior VA executives for negligence or poor performance.

|Key Info
Near Sydney Gardens, just 15 minutes walk to Pulteney Bridge, for all the main sights. This is an independent guest apartment on the ground floor of our modern three storey house. We are new to Holiday Lettings but last year welcomed many happy guests through other booking sites, with excellent reviews
The style of decor is contemporary yet cosy, with light but practical flooring, colourful rugs and accessories. You have your own private entrance so your space is your own, but we are nearby if needed. There is on site parking for one guest car and you are welcome to use the garden with sunny seating area. ( a town garden so some traffic noise).
SITTING ROOM / KITCHEN: entrance via patio doors, sofa bed, armchair, breakfast table for two, radio/cd/docking system, new 24"TV with DVD player, radio/CD/ docking station, tourist information, books and Dvds. Kitchen with full size oven/microwave, ceramic hob, fridge with small icebox, granite worktop and the crockery and utensils.
SHOWER / WC: with power shower
DOUBLE BEDROOM: spacious and light (but with a dark blind for a cosy lie-in) , double divan bed, crisp white bedlinen, fitted wardrobe. We can add a child bed or cot for short breaks only.Please enquire.
We are 15 minute walk from the centre for all the main sights: Roman Baths, Pump Rooms, Abbey, Jane Austen Centre, Royal Crescent, Costume Museum and new Thermae Spa .We also have some great shops, restaurants, pubs and tea rooms.
It is a pretty walk into town via Sydney Gardens, Great Pulteney Street ( the film set for Vanity Fair) and Pulteney Bridge ( filmed briefly in Les Miserables). Although slightly uphill coming back, the walk through Sydney Gardens is worth it and there are seats on the way back! Or the regular bus from the Abbey stops opposite our house, and a taxi costs £5-6. Bath University is about 4 min away by car, or the Uni bus stops on nearby Bathwick Hill.
Most visitors to Bath explore on foot. Although a bit hilly on the outskirts, the centre of Bath is fairly flat , but we can also recommend the Red Hop On Tour Bus as an easy way around. As well as beautiful architecture and museums, Bath has great shopping , places to eat and drink and a good theatre. There are some lovely parks and gardens to explore, take a balloon flight or a boat trip along the River Avon. In spring/summer we have various events for music and literature, including the famous Jane Austen Festival. And in the winter the Rugby, Half Marathon and a huge Christmas Market.
For an alternative day out, the maritime city of Bristol, ancient Stonehenge and the pretty Cotswolds are all within easy reach, by car or train, or escorted tours.
OUR RATES include towels, bedding and welcome tray / breakfast basket. Travel cot or z-bed on request, no charge.

Bath is in north Somerset and on the southern edge of the Cotswolds.
The small city of Bath is compact and most of it can be seen on foot. There is plenty to see and do for a few days but if you wish to explore further, the region has lots to offer.
With an hour of Bath , the pretty Cotswolds will delight you with quaint old villages and chocolate -box cottages , gift shops and cream teas.
To the west, the city and port of Bristol is 10 minutes away by train, and in under an hour (by train or road) you can be across the River Severn into Wales. Heading east, London is 90mins by train, you can get to ancient Stonehenge and Avebury Rings by car in approx 60min.
The apartment is in the Bathwick area of Bath, just south of Sydney Gardens. It is a pretty 15 mnutes walk to Pulteney Bridge, gateway to the city centre for all the main tourist sights, shops, bars etc .
A taxi from the taxi ranks at the train station or the Abbey cost around £5. A regular bus from the town centre stops opposite the house, and the University bus stops nearby on Bathwick Hill.

Gear Question
Why can't I order the black and green...
Member since
Why can't I order the black and green version of the Drab lowdown. The picture is show for the details, but it's not listed as an option. Does the color exist? It's not on the Nixon website, but it is here.
Zach Pina
Member since
Hey Chris, kind of a bummer, but we're out of stock of the Black/Green colorway. The regular "Drab" colorway is available, but it's that dark matte gray with Blue accent.

In mid-November, after more than a year's work, the U.S. Green Building Council announced the approval, by its 18,000 member organizations' ballots, of LEED 2009, a major overhaul of its green-building certification system for design and construction projects. The revised ratings scheme is meant to keep the council's revered gospel of green abreast of new technologies and environmental concerns.
Among the new version's notable changes will be the "reweighting" of some LEED credits to favor design strategies that address climate change and energy efficiency. For example, easy pedestrian access to public transit may now gain six points rather than just one; the credit for water-efficient landscaping has doubled, to two points; and the use of renewable energy sources on a site can earn a maximum of seven points (depending on the percentage of total energy use) rather than three. There are enhanced credits for design innovation, and still in the works are "regional credits," bonus points for a project's adaptations to its local conditions.
The new rating system is more streamlined, to reduce conflicts among the multiple LEED versions for specific types of projects, such as schools, retail, and renovations. Criteria common among various project types are now consolidated into a single "pool" of credits reflecting general requirements, though market-specific credits will remain in effect for design solutions that are peculiar to certain building types.
LEED is also expanding in scale. The same week, the council announced that it had opened a public-comment period, through Jan. 5, 2009, for its new LEED for Neighborhood Development rating system, its first attempt to make the designs of communities more sustainable.

5 mg at night.
good muscle relaxant for TMJ pain, headaches and cramping in the legs.
I have noticed that it works better on an empty stomach. Also 5mg can work as well as 10mg. Helps me get to sleep. Only drawback is I forget things more now, because it is a CNS depressant, and impairs cognitive functioning. Not good to take the night of studying for a test! (at least for me) Great muscle relaxer.

NYC subway worker helped save 3 people on tracksApril 8, 2013 @ 8:28 am
NEW YORK (AP) - A New York City subway worker is being hailed as a hero for preventing a train from hitting a man who'd had a seizure and two other people who were trying to help him.
Danny Hay was on his way to work Sunday morning when he saw a young man on the tracks at the Delancey Street station in Manhattan.
The Daily News ( http://nydn.us/14QLVJd) says Hay got on his radio and called for help. When no one heard him he ran up to the train booth and told an attendant to cut the power.
By this time two good Samaritans also were on the tracks.
When Hay noticed the power was still on he ran to the end of the station and flashed a light at the oncoming train.
The train operator noticed it and stopped just in time.

How Cards Got a Bulldog Fight
That which glitters is not always gold. Every rose has its thorn. While you've been getting down and out about the liars and the dirty, dirty cheats of the world, you could've been getting down to this sick beat.
How Coach Cal Invented the Internet
Tony Vanetti: Louisville knows their bowl opponent; Kentucky's very familiar with the University of Georgia. As a matter of fact, Georgia and Kentucky played not too long ago, in a game where Georgia did not punt. It was not a good day for Kentucky. What do you like about this matchup between Louisville and Georgia? [...]
Rocks No Sham; Take State
Once again, Trinity High School will bring a state title back to Louisville. The Shamrocks defeated Dixie Heights 47-14 in the Class 6-A State Championship to bring home the school's 11th football state title in the past 15 seasons.
Cold Weather and Hot Prospects: Fall Meet Highlights
The just-completed Churchill Downs Fall Meet produced memories of most every type and, as usual, the weather-shortened 24-day session left racing fans looking down the road and wanting a little more
Cards Take the Cup
Tony Vanetti: If I could get The Governor's Cup like that every single year of course with a UofL win in the end I'll take it. It was so entertaining – it was just a great day. Matt Jones: Well, I don't know about entertaining. To me, and I would say this is true for [...]
A Great Loss to End the Season
No bowl game. No winning record. No rivalry win against Louisville.
Cardinals Go Bolin'
Kyle Bolin is a quarterback. He's a quarterback for the University of Louisville. That's B-O-L-I-N.
Holy Holliman!
UofL safety Gerod Holliman intercepted a Patrick Towles pass to seal the Cards 44-40 win over Kentucky.
Cardinal Notes
For the Louisville Cardinals, a 45-33 win over Cleveland State doesn't seem all that remarkable, but the win was indeed special because it was Rick Pitino's 700th victory in college basketball.
Bolin a Surprise, a Saving Grace
"We're going to lose." These were the words I said as I watched Reggie Bonnafon unable to walk off the field without help in the 2nd quarter of last Saturday's game against Kentucky.

"…whenever I am introduced at a lecture or other speaking engagement, I insist that the person introducing me mention that I have two sons…my entire purpose is to make family references routine and normal in professional life." So said Anne-Marie Slaughter in her much discussed article in the Atlantic magazine, "Why women still can't have it all."
In many ways, I have for years been working to achieve just the opposite. As a single person who has heard from thousands of other single people informally and studied them systematically, I find the flaunting of marital or parental status in professional domains gratuitous and inappropriate.
When a candidate says, "Vote for me, I'm married," or "Vote for me, I have kids," I am less likely to do so. I want to know your policies, goals, and your accomplishments – your work-related accomplishments. I worry that if you are calling attention to what a great family person you are, you are going to put your family ahead of your district's or your country's adults and children, and that you are not even going to see all the people around you who are single or who have no children. If you don't seem to recognize that single people with no children exist, you are not going to understand the totality of their lives.

Colbert to broadcast 4 shows from Baghdad
Colbert said he feels a "special guilt" and responsibility to keep the soldiers' story alive because of the political nature of his program. The comedian is also guest editing next week's issue of Newsweek magazine. (A mock-up sits on his desk with the question "Remember Iraq?" splashed across the cover.)
"I don't want to forget that people are struggling through the things that I sometimes make jokes about," he said.
The 45-year-old comedian says he's not afraid of the danger of visiting Iraq ("I'm not a high value target"). Instead, he said he's only nervous about doing a good show for the troops.
"The show is always about me, it's always about the character," said Colbert. "What's different about this is, it's really about them. If they laugh, I'll be completely satisfied."

Heart to Heart to Heart: Jacquot's Romantic Drama Can't Cover Every Angle
Despite sporting the likes of Charlotte Gainsbourg and Catherine Deneuve, Three Hearts, the latest from Benoit Jacquot often feels like a rather stilted endeavor. The follow-up to his most internationally renowned title to date, Farewell, My Queen, Jacquot's underwhelming love story uses a contrivance often seen in romantic comedies, only he replaces the comedy with a somber indifference that seems to work against the believability of the film.
The film seems as if it belongs to an earlier era of filmmaking, a time where repressed feelings would roil just beneath the surface until they boiled over to cause living hell for all affected parties lost amidst the unmitigated power known as love. This is the stuff of classic melodrama, and the three hearts at the center of this triangle often feel more like archetypes than actual people, »

The word "melodrama" tends to be used as a pejorative these days, and that's because there are few movies or TV shows that execute the specifics of the genre well. When it works, an accomplished melodrama allows the audience to fully invest in the emotional lives of its characters, even if the plot machinations are manipulative or don't hold up under close scrutiny. It's a genre powered by performance and atmosphere, and it requires committed work by the actors, an assured handle on tone by the director, and a script that can allow suspension of disbelief to stretch but not break. And while it's not perfect, and though at times you can see rigging of the structure, Benoît Jacquot's "Three Hearts" is a satisfying melodrama about love at first sight, the cruelty of fate, and passion that never fades. The film kicks off with a "Before Sunrise"-like prologue. »

Benoît Jacquot's Three Hearts (3 coeurs) with Benoît Poelvoorde, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Chiara Mastroianni and Catherine Deneuve, premiered in competition in Venice and now screens in Toronto before opening in France next week. "It's a carefully made film but not a patch on, say, Claire Denis's similar Vendredi soir," finds Sight & Sound editor Nick James. But at the Av Club, Ignatiy Vishnevetsky argues that "Jacquot is trying—successfully—to tease out the sense of danger and tension most romances sorely lack."

Trois Coeurs
Written by Benoit Jacquot and Julien Boivent
Directed by Benoit Jacquot
France, 2014
French filmmaker Benoit Jacquot often crops up in discussions of overlooked auteurs of contemporary French cinema. His work is quiet, understated and rarely find a wide audience. Yet, efforts like Farewell my Queen, A Single Girl and The School of Flesh are heralded among the best French efforts of their respective years. However, for every effort that wins the heart of niche audiences, the rest of his films are divisive and alienating. While perhaps a lack of consistency is working against him, many of his contemporaries are even bigger gambles: Francois Ozon is responsible for some beautiful films, but more of his efforts were outright misses and even heavy weights like Assayas deliver as many misses as successes. Perhaps it is the quietness of Jacquot's style that works against him, his best efforts coming across »

★★☆☆☆Director Benoît Jacquot returns to the Venice Lido with Three Hearts (2014), a slickly presented and thespy relationship drama which flounders on its own lack of originality, humourlessness and absence of credibility. Marc (Benoît Poelvoorde, in his second film of the festival), a tax inspector from Paris, misses his train and finds himself trapped in a provincial town for the night. A chance encounter with a woman Sylvie (the obligatory Charlotte Gainsbourg) leads to a Before Sunrise-style wander through the streets until sunset. The encounter is chaste and coy - they neither exchange names nor phone numbers - but the two are obviously attracted to each other and arrange to meet in Paris at a fountain.

In one of the banner deals on a high-profile title at this year's Venice Film Festival, Cohen Media Group has acquired U.S. rights to "Three Hearts" starring Catherine Deneuve, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Chiara Mastroianni and Benoit Poelvoorde.
Directed by Benoit Jacquot ("Farewell My Queen," "Sade"), "Three Hearts" will play also as in a special presentation at the Toronto film fest.
Renewing Cmg's love affair with French cinema, "Three Hearts" is described by the New York distributor as "a modern twist on classic romantic melodramas, from 'An Affair To Remember' to 'Before Sunrise.'"
Written by Jacquot and Julien Boivent, "3 Hearts" turns on Marc, a tax official who meets Sylvie in a provincial town after missing the last train back to Paris. They wander the streets until morning, talking about everything – except themselves. They arrange to meet again in Paris but misfortune befalls Marc and he fails to make the date. »

Director Benoit Jacquot has made all kinds of films from 1995′s widely lauded A Single Girl (which was, for me, a tedious extended tracking shot) to 2012′s Versailles drama Farewell, My Queen.
Three Hearts is an immensely watchable French potboiler with three excellent leads in Benoit Poelvoorde (also seen in Venice in The Price Of Fame), Charlotte Gainsbourg (also here in the extended cut of Nymphomaniac I and Nymphomaniac II), and Chiara Mastroianni (also in The Price Of Fame).
Poelvoorde plays Marc, a tax auditor who, stressed out, is pacing the streets of Lyon one night when he runs into Sylvie (Gainbourg). They have an immediate attraction towards one another but, instead of rashly acting out on it, they promise to meet in Paris the next Friday, at 6:00Pm. Sylvie goes home to her long-suffering boyfriend and announces that she's fallen in love with someone. The »

More than 40 years ago, at the outset of his filmmaking career, Benoit Jacquot worked as an assistant director to the great French novelist and helmer Marguerite Duras, and now, with "Three Hearts," he has made a film that feels more indebted to her romantic values than anything else in his oeuvre. Here, beneath the surface of a cool, contempo love triangle involving a Parisian man (Benoit Poelvoorde) and a pair of provincial French sisters (played by Charlotte Gainsbourg and Chiara Mastroianni), are all the values Duras held dear: love at first sight, spontaneous tears, all-consuming desire and impossible, self-destructive decisions.
The difference — since it's entirely possible that the Duras connection never crossed Jacquot's mind — is that the helmer can't help but turn these archetypes into characters. The passion remains, but the underlying poetry has been traded in for something more tangible, brought down to earth so that audiences might relate. »

Benoît Jacquot is a festival veteran, last doing the rounds with 2012's costume drama "Farewell, My Queen." Now he's back with a more contemporary tale, riffing on an old theme, while rounding some exciting talent to tell his story. The film is called "Three Hearts," and with screenings at Venice and Tiff coming up soon, the first trailer has dropped. Benoît Poelvoorde, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Chiara Mastroianni and Catherine Deneuve star in the film, which Jacquot co-wrote and directed, about a love triangle that develops between a man and two sisters. After Marc has a fling in small town France with Sylvie, he meets Sophie, falls deeply in love, and marries her. The twist? Sophie and Sylvie are close siblings, and when all is revealed, the drama cranks up a few notches. Intriguing stuff, with a great cast to take it on, so we'll keep an eye out.

The only way is ethics for Man Bites Dog, a pseudo-documentary, which focuses its lens on the media's obsession with on-screen violence and so-called "Reality TV" and our obsession with watching it. It is probably the most controversial film in Belgian history, and it continues to repel and intrigue audiences in equal measure.
Written, directed and produced by Remy Belvaux, Andre Bonzel and Benoit Poelvoorde (all of whom play starring roles), Man Bites Dog is a cross between mock-cinema verité, à la Spinal Tap but with the violence turned up to eleven, and the ultimate reality TV show. The film shows an amateur film crew who are following a loquacious and charismatic serial killer named Ben. Ben kills to make a living. Strangely he is not seeking revenge or attempting to surmount a past trauma, in fact an interview with his mother reveals that as a child he was »

Of Gods And Men director Xavier Beauvois and screenwriter Etienne Comar unveiled their Competition pic La Rançon De La Gloire (The Price Of Fame) in Venice today. They were accompanied by Eugene Chaplin, the son of a key figure in the 1970s-set picture. Charlie Chaplin is the basis of the movie because it's his coffin that is stolen from a Swiss cemetery by two down-on-their-luck immigrants.
Based on real events, The Price Of Fame has received largely positive reviews here on the Lido. (I personally could have done without an overlong exposition and some frustrating scenes of huffing and puffing graveside…) Eugene has a small role in the movie that recounts the events of March 1978 when, a few days after his father's death, a pair of Polish and Bulgarian men dug up his grave and held the body for ransom. The film switches the nationalities of the men »

★☆☆☆☆When Charlie Chaplin died on Christmas Day in 1977, the whole world paid tribute to the passing of a comic genius. However, two down-on-their luck, unemployed immigrants living in Switzerland saw his passing as an opportunity - the answer to all their problems - and hatched a plan to dig up and steal his coffin and then hold the grieving Chaplin family to ransom. This is the initially intriguing premise for award-winning Of Gods and Men (2010) director Xavier Beauvois' latest film and Venice Golden Lion hopeful The Price of Fame (2014), but unfortunately the execution proves extremely poor. The talented Benoît Poelvoorde ;plays Belgian crook Eddy, a thief who has just been released from prison.

The Price of Glory (La Rancon de la Glorie) is based on the bizarre but true story that took place in the waning days of 1977, right after Charlie Chaplin had died. In this forgotten saga two men came up with the hare-brained idea to dig up his corpse and attempted to to ransom it back to his family. The two criminals here are Eddy, played by Benoit Poelvoorde, and Osman, played by Roschdy Zem. Neither Eddy nor Osamn are very good as kidnappers. Osman is a family man with a young daughter and a sick wife, which makes him desperate to figure out a way to cover her medical bills. Eddy is a seemingly dim bulb who comes up with the scheme.

Like the glorious, overripe Michel Legrand score lavished over an otherwise quiet affair, there's something knowingly, beguilingly out of time about "The Price of Fame," . Xavier Beauvois' first film since 2010's somber Cannes Grand Prix winner "Of Gods and Men" — and the first comic outing of his career — riffs jovially on the true 1978 story of two blue-collar immigrants in small-town Switzerland who exhumed Charlie Chaplin's remains in a botched ransom attempt. Facts have been liberally altered, however, to suit Beauvois' conception of the tale as a human comedy worthy of the Little Tramp himself. Wry, sentimental and carried with shaggy charm by Benoit Poelvoorde and Roschdy Zem as the lovable crooks, "Fame" should parlay its helmer's cachet and the universality of the Chaplin connection into widespread arthouse exposure.
Overlength is the principal failing of a film that otherwise negotiates the balance between whimsy and gravitas with considerable »

Microsoft Seeks to TAP Elite Beta Tester Pool
As noted in a beta tester e-mail note posted on the ieXbeta Web site, Microsoft is seeking customers to join its Technology Adoption Program (TAP) beta program for its next-generation database.
But more interesting than the e-mail itself is TAP.
TAP is the granddaddy of Microsofts beta programs centered on a core group of key customers and partners who are early adopters of key Microsoft technologies.
TAP is not a replacement for Microsofts mega-beta tests (public and private) for products such as Windows, Office and Visual Studio. Instead, its more of an "elite" beta-test program.
TAP, which quietly launched in the fall of 2003, supersedes Microsofts Rapid Deployment Program (RDP), Early Adoption Program (EAP) and Joint Development Program (JDP).
TAP is reserved for a select group of customers and partners with whom Microsoft is interested in holding "an ongoing dialogue on pre-release code," according to the company.

1 killed in I-680 collision
One person is dead after a two-vehicle accident on Interstate 680 in Pottawattamie County north of Council Bluffs on Saturday morning.
Sgt. Dave Rosenberg with the Iowa State Patrol said both vehicles were traveling westbound on I-680 just three miles north of the Interstate 29 split around 7:30 a.m. when a white truck rear-ended a car.
Authorities said 86-year-old Donald Dean Obrecht of Missouri Valley, Iowa, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver of the truck, 39-year-old Mark Anthony Kaufman of Harlan Iowa, was not injured.
Investigators do not believe alcohol or drugs were factors in the crash.

Also good on the Evo! They are junk. The only reason people think they are good is mainly because th dealers say they are. Stock they are way to pricey and way to underpowered for the money. I mean, over double what I paid for mine and only 30 more hp? That's crap.

Indian ADRs to Buy, Sell
Tata Communications (TataCom) is a provider of wholesale international voice services and leverages its solution capabilities across the global and pan India network to deliver managed solutions.
During the recent quarters, revenues jumped 8% on the back of growth in the international and national long distance calling segments. However, relentless pressure on pricing coupled with moderate volume growth plunged operating profits 18% year-over-year during the first half of fiscal 2010-11.
Overall, operating margins narrowed 350 basis points (bps) during the first six months of the year to 9.5%. Interest costs inched up 6% as total debt rose to $1.75 billion, as compared to $1.66 billion a year ago. Overall, net loss more than doubled to $112 million during this period.
The stress on wholesale voice business is expected to drive the company into losses for 2011 and 2012, similar to 2010. However, positive triggers like the sale of land bank and Tata Teleservices could offer some support.
