About me and my passion for cars
I have always loved the "muscle car" era, learned to appreciate the cars of my generation by working on my '72 Nova. I have a small collection of 1:18 diecast cars, just love the look of these cars. My '73 Monte Carlo I am restoring is a joy to work on, have never restored a car before, but I know what I want it to look like in the end, just taking my time with her, it will be so worth it in the end.
My first car
My first car was a 1972 nova that I became the proud owner of my Junior year in High School in 1977, purchased for $1700 back then, Dark Green, loved that car.
Car I wish I still had
1976 Chevy Monte Carlo purchased after I was married in 1982, that car was Blue with a Landau top, rally wheels, great car we used to drive to the drive-in.
My dream car
1973 Chevy Monte Carlo, currently under complete restoration to be completed 2013 to drive to my 35th High School Reunion, my classmates will notice me on that day for sure.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not as great as the book.
This movie was ahead of its time. I really enjoyed the introductory sequence featuring Scout coloring and humming. Gregory Peck was amazing as Atticus Finch, bringing much, but not too much drama to his role. However, I do feel that this movie was overall too dramatic, very unlike the book. It lacked the book's subtle humor, and replaced it with exaggerated dramatic...

The film is about a man's priciples to defend a black man who is accused of rape during the Great Depression. The film is also about growing up and facing lifes realities. This work is truly beautiful and has held up every bit as good as when it was first released. The film also follows the book very closely and does a wonderfull job of adapting the masterpiece.
The DVD has running commentary from the film makers as well as an exclusive documentary about the film. This project could not been done better. It is part of my personal film library and is truly a great addition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Something new every time,
James Gallen (St. Louis, Missouri, U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: To Kill a Mockingbird (DVD)
This is another rendition of an American classic. I had seen this movie and read the book in the past, so was there really anything new this time? We watched it as a school project for my daughter. She watched it as a teenager, my wife watched it as a teacher and I watched it as a lawyer and, for tonight, at least, a part-time tutor. We each saw something in it that we had not appreciated before. For me, the courtroom scenes were interesting, but I identified more with Atticus, the father, than Atticus the lawyer. No matter how often you have watched this in the past, you will find something new to admire when you watch it again. Never stop!

5.0 out of 5 stars To Kill a Mockingbird is like a sin,
M. Buisman (Amstelveen, The Netherlands) - See all my reviews
'To Kill A Mockingbird' is of course the movie adaptation of Harper Lee's movie with the same title. Gregory Peck is a lawyer in rural Mississippi who is asked to defend a black man accused of raping a white woman.
The movie starts however with a seemingly unrelated event, the lives of Atticus Finch's two children. His daughter is a tomboy and his son is trying to keep her from getting into more trouble. The stumble upon some strange items and look at the house of a strange man called Boo Radley.
Then the movie goes into the court case. It is of course very obvious that the black man is innocent, but this is 1930's South with an all white jury...
Then the two parts of the movie come back together again...
The acting in this movie (in black and white) is superb. I recall that Gregory Pecks perfomance was voted the best of the century. Even the little girl is superb, she even got a nominatation for an oscar. Boo Radley is played by Robert Duvall, though he says next to nothing and is only in the movie for a few minutes. He of course 10 years later would play Tom Hayden in The Godfather. For Star Trek fans: Tom Robinson, the black man accused, is Sisko's Father of DS9

5.0 out of 5 stars Its children�s world that evolves with racial prejudice,
Shahzada Gofran (Thailand) - See all my reviews
We shall say "To kill a mockingbird" is a classic of the century that unfolds reality into film with profound simplicity. Its character development along with the approach of realism supersedes many contemporary works of literature and film. The historic flavor of the film creates an impression of a southern community of America during the great depression. Apparently the quintessential theme of the movie is the social stigma and prejudice. We see conflicts between the blacks and whites in the same community where justice has upheld my one of the central character called atticus.
Tom Robinson, a black guy living in the same town called Mayconb was one of the central characters in the movie has been accused of raping a white woman. However, eventually he was convicted as guilty of charge and subjected to unfair justice system by the ignorant majority that have taken part in the jury. But there were other themes that also have significance to its crafts also. Its amazing reality of children's life that is so universal. It created a reality of vividing contention that helps the viewers to understand how the children see and think about the world. It also calls into attention of the activities that children by their vary nature involve in a family. For instance, Scout and Jem who are the central characters have enormous interests in scary yet joyful venture to Boo Radly's house even after being forbidden by their father. It was also important to observe how the children have collected gifts from the tree given by a isolated guy who they never been acquainted with.
The phenomenal curiosity of children is almost inescapable from the viewer's notice in the movie. They were inquisitive in every detail of what has been happening around them. That gives us the idea of their emotional reopens to the world and family relationships. As you will see, if you watch the movie, their father atticuls who has been a significant moral authority to them. He has great influence on how they develop the ideas of people and differences of good and evil that remain in their fantasy world.
The story of the movie has a unique way to tell you about a community and what is going on to its families. It takes us to the journey to reflect on our own childhood fantasy world and the adventures that still remains in our mind a thrill.

4.0 out of 5 stars Greater perspective required,
M. Eugeni (California, USA) - See all my reviews
Okay, it might feel slow and it can seem dull, but this movie has a heart and soul like almost no other. Life in a pre-Civil Rights Era, deep South town is not exactly an amusement park experience. Children live in the moment, and that's where perspective resides in this story. It's only later that meaning, lessons, and heartache are really processed (narrator provides the nostalgic adult view). Scout is self absorbed like children are, her older brother Jem longs for manhood, and every adult in town seems to realize their father, Atticus Finch, is a uniquely dedicated man. Story is immensely simple, echoing languid mood of a small town, pre-television, pre-suburban isolation, and very much in the midst of ignorance and prejudice. Racism is the issue that stands out in the end, but story is more an exploration of a time and place that most of us will never--and might never hope to--know. What action exists is observed by a mysterious neighbor and a stoic dad (who just might be the good guys). Don't be fooled by the pace; there are joys and hopes to be found in this small Alabama town.
Collector's Edition DVD includes Fearful Symmetry, a wonderfully illuminating documentary about the making of the film and the basis for its story and characters. It starts slow but the messages (some rathy wordy) are poignant. Narration includes many quotes from the book, details that are left out of the movie in effort to translate to screen. For anyone unsure of the value of movie and its story, this feature-length documentary is a wonderful introduction or alternative.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well done,
bernie "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: To Kill a Mockingbird (DVD)
I was surprised at how well all the elements came together for this film. Obviously the main cohesion is centered on Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck) and his relationship with his children, Scout (Mary Badham) and Jem (Philip Alford). I would classify this as one of Gregory peck's best movies. It almost had to be shot in black and whit to have the feel needed in the all but black and white movie.
Scout and Jem know very little about their neighbor `Boo' (Robert Duvall.) They have heard and made up strange stories. They spend time daring each other and their summer friend, to go up to the neighbor house as it holds some mysterious crazed person. Through the movie many odd things happen such as a tree that mysteriously offers a series of objects from marbles to a watch, among other things. What do we really know about our neighbors? Watch as the mystery unfolds. And what will they find out in this slice of life in the Depression-era South.

Andrew's Blu-ray Review: 1962 was a rather remarkable year for films featuring stellar performances by young actors. Patty Duke took home a well-deserved Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for her iconic work in 'The Miracle Worker,' but Patty Duke's was hardly the only notable performance that year. Duke was joined in the Best Supporting Actress category by another young girl whose performance has entered the annals of the near legendary, namely Mary Badham's beautifully rendered work as Scout in 'To Kill A Mockingbird.' There were a slew of other films that featured standout younger performances – Lolita, Sundays and Cybele, Cape Fear, The Music Man just to name a few – but no other film that year (and arguably any year) actually captured the viewpoint of children as magically yet realistically as 'To Kill A Mockingbird' did. What's perhaps so incredible about this beautifully heartfelt film is how effortlessly it manages to sum up an entire generation's experience of one distinct region of the United States, namely the American South, dealing with all sorts of issues from the epochal (like race relations) to the seemingly picayune (like sibling rivalry and loyalty). While a major subplot of the film casts a rather unseemly light on the American South, the incredibly noble and moral character of the focal children's father, one Atticus Finch [Gregory Peck], an attorney who is hired to defend a black man accused of raping and beating a white girl, gives this film a strong ethical centre which further helps to distinguish it and which adds inestimably to the film's allure.
Harper Lee was a largely unknown quantity when her first (and only) novel "To Kill A Mockingbird" was published in July 1960. Lee had been encouraged by her childhood friend and neighbour Truman Capote (upon whom the character of Dill in the book is based), and Capote wrote a brief blurb on the dust jacket of the first edition hardback espousing Harper Lee's talent. Lee had no great hopes for the book, and in fact the publisher had warned her it probably wouldn't do very well, so she (not to mention the publishers) when the book became something of an overnight sensation.
Similarly, director Robert Mulligan wasn't exactly a household name, either, though he had had the extreme good fortune to have partnered with producer Alan J. Pakula (who would also become a director of some considerable note) and did have a handful of features, as well as a long television career, under his belt. But Mulligan's quiet, deliberate approach turned out to be absolutely perfect for To Kill a Mockingbird, especially with regard to coaxing absolutely realistic performances out the film's central trio of children, Mary Badham as Scout Finch, the six year old from whose viewpoint (and memory) the film is told; Phillip Alford as Jem Finch, Scout's older brother and erstwhile protector; and John Megna as colourful neighbour Dill, who joins the siblings in a series of adventures, many of which revolve around ferreting out information about the Finch's mysterious neighbour, Boo Radley [Robert Duvall]. As the kids' exploits play out, the Finch's father, attorney Atticus, finds himself caught up in simmering racial tensions when a local black man [Brock Peters] is falsely accused of having attacked a white girl [Collin Wilcox]. Mulligan resolutely refuses to ever let the film lapse into melodrama, staging things simply and without sensationalism, and that approach gives the film much of its indelible emotional power.
[In the trivial but fascinating department, 'To Kill A Mockingbird' has one of the oddest concatenations of "famous relative syndrome" with regard to its cast and crew of any major motion picture. Just a brief listing includes these gems: Mary Badham [Scout] is the little sister of director John Badham [Saturday Night Fever]; John Megna [Dill] is the half-brother of actress Connie Stevens; director Robert Mulligan was the brother of actor Richard Mulligan [Soap and Empty Nest]; and Estelle Evans (housekeeper Calpurnia) was the sister of actress Esther Rolle [Maude and Good Times].
'To Kill A Mockingbird' is a quiet film, and in fact several studios passed on optioning Harper Lee's novel because they couldn't understand what possible allure it could have for audiences. "It's about a lawyer and his two kids," was all studio executives (never the most prescient bunch) could see in the book, obviously missing the profound truths buried in Scout and Jem's world, like the treasures Boo Radley secrets away in the neighbourhood tree cavity. But like a parent whispering to a beloved child, 'To Kill a Mockingbird' speaks directly to the heart, never demanding attention, but commanding it nonetheless. If you've never seen this hugely affecting film, you're in for one of the most touching experiences of your cinematic life. If you're a long-time fan, rejoice that it's been revitalised now to rediscover all over again.
Blu-ray Video Quality – Scuttlebutt has it that the world may be ending in the very near future, and there may be further signs of an impending apocalypse, at least for some ardent film fans, with the news that Universal, and the bane of catalogue title collectors seems to have finally woken up and realised how to treat its asset treasures. Now this has happened with the release of 'To Kill a Mockingbird' and is presented on Blu-ray with an awesome encoded 1080p transfer in 1.85:1 (and, yes, you read that right). The film is part of Universal's well publicised 100th Anniversary promotional push to revisit many of its storied films, restoring and re-mastering them for home video release (not all of these legendary films will receive Blu-ray releases, unfortunately). This new Blu-ray has been sourced from high resolution scans of original 35mm source elements and the results are simply gorgeous. The clarity and precision of the image is breath taking at times, with beautifully modulated grey scale, deep, rich blacks and piercing, though never blooming, whites. Though the film and all of the supplements (save for the restoration feature) are in SD, and there are absolutely no compression artefacts to report. The restoration feature, which actually covers a lot of titles, actually spends a few seconds discussing one aspect of Universal's high definition releases which seem to create the biggest controversy: digital noise reduction of grain. In the case of 'To Kill a Mockingbird,' there were a number of optical push ins (as opposed to zooms) which magnified grain to a really ugly degree, something shown quite clearly in the restoration feature. Rather than "erase" the grain, which the team of restorers quite clearly state is unthinkable, they used a new algorithm which "averaged" the grain over the entire sequence, including before and after the optical push. The results should please even the most pernickety videophiles. Several scenes which have been murky in previous home video releases have whole new levels of shadow detail on this new Blu-ray. Well done, Universal - please keep up the excellent work.
Blu-ray Audio Quality – 'To Kill A Mockingbird' offers both a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio surround mix as well as a standard 2.0 DTS mix. This would not seem to be a film especially suited to a surround track, and the good news is the track hasn't been overly "tatted up" to provide a false sense of immersion. The best part of the 5.1 track is the fuller representation of Elmer Bernstein's glorious score, one of the finest scores of the composer's long and legendary career. (I'm on record as having stated that Bronislau Kaper was robbed of an Oscar for his 1962 'Mutiny on the Bounty,' but Leonard Bernstein's 'To Kill A Mockingbird' certainly gave him and eventual winner Maurice Jarre for 'Lawrence of Arabia' stiff competition). Ambient sounds occasionally dot the surrounds (the rustle of leaves in that final horrifying Halloween sequence is a notable example), but the mixers have wisely kept things largely front and centre, as they should be. Fidelity is excellent and the soundtrack bears no noticeable signs of age related damage.
Blu-ray Special Features and Extras:
Feature Commentary with Director Robert Mulligan and Producer Alan Pakula: Is incredibly informative, though Alan Pakula can be a little hard to hear at times. The two, who were partners for such a long time, have an easy rapport with each other, and Alan Pakula coaxes a lot of anecdotes out of Robert Mulligan. Highly enjoyable.
Fearful Symmetry [SD] [1:30:13] This feature length documentary is by Charles Kiselyak, and is a loving if unshrinking look back on the cultural milieu from which 'To Kill a Mockingbird' sprang. There are copious interviews with several participants in the film, including Gregory Peck, the kids, as well as Robert Mulligan and Alan Pakula. The documentary also gets into some really interesting, if somewhat tangential, subjects like the importance of oral history in the American South.
A Conversation with Gregory Peck [SD] [1:37:37] Is another fantastic, feature length documentary which first finds the actor doing a personal appearance in Boston, answering questions from the audience. The film then follows Gregory Peck on a number of exploits with various family members, as he reminisces about his long and storied career. Some other audience participation interview segments are also included in this really beautifully done piece.
Academy Award Best Actor Acceptance Speech [SD] [1:31] Is a model for all the longwinded, self-important award accepters nowadays.
American Film Institute Life Achievement Award [SD] [10:01] Is a snippet from Gregory Peck's AFI tribute, including a wonderful speech by the actor.
Excerpt from Tribute to Gregory Peck [SD] [10:09] Is from a special Academy tribute to Peck, including Peck's four children.
Scout Remembers [SD] [12:01] Is a fun piece featuring Mary Badham remembering her experiences on the film.
Theatrical Trailer [SD] [2:52] Original Theatrical Trailer of the film.
100 Years of Universal: Restoring the Classics [1080p] [9:13] is a promo piece touting Universal's 100th anniversary and their restoration and preservation efforts. The new slate of restorations is covered briefly, including some looks at the restoration efforts. Universal releases are regularly pilloried for over aggressive DNR [Digital Noise reduction], and there's a very interesting segment on this feature addressing that issue that all DNR-phobes really should watch. Other situations like flicker are also addressed. Audio restoration is also covered in this really interesting piece.
U Control: My Scenes offers Cecilia and Anthony Peck narrating different PiP snippets which offer a number of participants like Robert Mulligan, Horton Foote, Mary Badham and Phillip Alford.
Finally, I'm not ashamed to admit I was once again in a flood of tears as 'To Kill A Mockingbird' drew to a close as I watched it to prepare for this review. I've seen the film countless times, but viewing it with this stunning Blu-ray disc, it now has the same overwhelming effect on me, certainly a good indication of just how emotionally powerful the film is. How many films can you think of that lose little if any of their emotional resonance upon repeated viewings? 'To Kill a Mockingbird' is one of that rare breed of films which seems timeless even as it precisely recreates a very specific time and place. Classic film lovers have come to dread Universal catalogue releases (rightly or wrongly), but 'To Kill a Mockingbird' sets a new standard for the studio, one which they hopefully will continue with as their 100th Anniversary Celebration takes centre stage. 'To Kill A Mockingbird' instantly jumps to the front of the pack with this best release in 2013, and it comes 100% high praise. So all in all, I am so proud and honoured to now have this beautifully crafted classic film, they I will not tire of watching again and again. Very Highly Recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Still a classic,
Rick Patterson "P Is Silent" (Calgary) - See all my reviews
This review is from: To Kill a Mockingbird (Legacy Series Edition) (DVD)
Not that anyone could touch the Harper Lee novel, but the movie version--which was pretty much rushed to the big screen within about a year of the release of the book--stands up pretty well.
The choice of black and white format is a good one, obviously, even if this may seem a bit heavy-handed in its symbolism for some.
Gregory Peck is so perfect as Atticus that you will have a hard time trying to remember what else he could possibly look like. Jem and Scout work well too. Whatever happened to the child actors who played them? Who knows? Perhaps it's just as well; they can be Jem and Scout forever. Too bad about the casting for Dill, but you can't have everything, obviously.
Speaking of which, the clipping of the novel by Horton Foote is painful but necessary, considering it would otherwise be longer than The Return of the King, but I do wish that there were more scenes to savor. That's what the novel is for, I suppose.
Things not to love: the music for the scene in which Bob Ewell attacks Jem and Scout. Totally wrong. You might expect Thumper to emerge from the trees (trees? what trees?) but certainly not white trash Mister Ewell. Also, the melodramatics with the hands clutching and grasping at nothing in the same scene are really way over the top. If you are trying to go for drama, don't elicit a laugh. That's just deadly.
Another laugh arrives at what should be the most touching moment of the movie: Scout's recognition of Boo Radley. Unfortunately, it's blocked so Robert Duvall's Boo is literally hidden behind the bedroom door and he emerges like Freddy Krueger. Not very touching at all. Sorry.
But really, all the way around, weighing the flaws against the moments of brilliance, the movie comes out a winner and should be viewed as a separate text from the novel, against which no movie could ever be successfully compared.
5.0 out of 5 stars In the quest to achieve an impossible feat,
Sebastian Fernandez (Tampa, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
Making justice in a film to the best novel in the twentieth century (determined by vote of librarians across the US) is not an easy task. I would say that although there are a few elements of the novel that get lost in the movie, it is still a great production regardless. That is probably why it was nominated for eight Academy Awards in 1962, including best picture, best actor (Gregory Peck), best actress in a supporting role (Mary Badham), best director (Robert Mulligan), best screenplay, best black and white cinematography, best black and white art direction and best original musical score. The movie won two of the eight awards, best art direction and best actor.
The story revolves around the experiences of Scout, a little girl who is telling a story from her childhood. Her father is assigned as the defense attorney of a black young man falsely accused of raping a white girl. The movie does a good job in disseminating the book's main message: racism is destructive and has no basis to exist in our society. If you consider that the book was written in 1960, this is not a minor point, but on the contrary it is a very powerful statement. The movie also does a great job in portraying the qualities found in the character of Atticus Finch, a father who is raising two kids by himself, after losing his wife, and is doing a splendid job at it. Not only he differs from the norm at the time because he never hits his children, but he also tries not to influence their ideas of what is wrong and right. Instead of promoting hatred in Scout and Jem against the people that are racist and unfair, he tries to teach them tolerance to understand that these individuals are acting mostly out of fear. Throughout the story one can observe how the two siblings go from considering Atticus an old man who could not play football with other dads to seeing him as a hero with outstanding values.
It is hard to decide how to rate a movie that is based on such an incredibly awesome book. First, because it is harder to convey the "child's view" in the movie while this is very clear in the book. Second because there are passages of the book that were left out, and although they are not crucial to the story they give it a certain charm (for example the visit of Jem and Scout to Calpurnia's church). Therefore, if I use the book as a benchmark, the movie should be rated four stars. However, I think it makes more sense to compare the movie with other movies, and in this comparison it is extremely clear that "To Kill a Mockingbird" is as good as it gets, consequently deserving the five stars rating.
5.0 out of 5 stars The Summer We Discovered Life,
Mary F. Sibley (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: To Kill a Mockingbird (Widescreen) (VHS Tape)
Every so often, as surely as night follows day, a film comes along that manages to transport us from our everyday lives and into a time and place that is recalled through memories of better and in a reversal of fortunes, turbulent times. To Kill A Mockingbird is such a film.
In a Pulitzer Prize winning novel by Harper Lee, the small town of Macomb, Alabama is portrayed in the summer of 1932, during the deepest depression that the United States had ever experienced. Over the course of the next year and a half, events will burrow inside this sleepy southern town and the lives of its residents will be transported by actions, ideas, perceptions and convictions that will influence one and all in ways that will ring true for years to come.
Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck) is a lawyer and widower, raising two small children, Scout (Mary Badham) and her older brother Jem (Phillip Alford). Into their lives enters a visitor, Dill (John Megna) from Meridian, Mississippi, come to spend two weeks with his Aunt Stephanie (Alice Ghostley). Macomb is a town with nothing to do and if there were, no money to spend on it. The stage is being set for a life shattering episode that will not go quietly into that good night.
Childhood holds its fascinations, its myths, its coming of age and through the eyes of the three children, the audience is allowed to peer into the adult world around them as perceived through the minds and souls of innocence that will be all too easily shattered as time whistles down the track. One of the stories woven so masterfully within its covers is the local urban legend of bogeyman, Boo Radley (Robert Duval), who lives on the same block as the Finch family. In a narration, rather like playing telephone, his persona takes on all the familiar attributes of a raving lunatic, a monster out for blood. His aura becomes the end all for Scout, Jem and Dill as they seek to master the mystery surrounding Boo and the ability to live to tell the tale!
Into this world of innocence, a shattering crescendo of complexity wraps itself in the lives of the townspeople in the form of an alleged rape of a white woman, Mayella Violet Ewell (Collin Wilcox) by a black man, Tom Robinson (Brock Peters). Atticus Finch is called upon to act as counsel for Robinson and in doing so, the stage has been set for a dance with race relations and the exemplary lengths that are gone to in order to allow justice to prevail in the face of malcontent.
The performances throughout To Kill A Mockingbird are stunning. Gregory Peck, as the gentleman lawyer, mired in small town attitudes and thoughts that were so representational in the southern gothic sphere, has collected and held a restrained order to his character, and in the process, he has allowed us all to be on the receiving end of hate as conveyed through the actions of small minds and small people. The children, especially Mary Badham, are siblings of more than a movie making venture. They show the absence of preconceived notions, and the guile of beings before the actions of adults can render their world as lost and gone with the shedding of time.
James Anderson as Tom Ewell is the complete representation of oily slime as Mayella's father. He embodies all of the hate and prejudice that continues to be harboured to this day in the souls of those who would attempt to wield their vision of the way things should and ought to be. He has a foul baseness that lingers like a bad rash as he attempts to invoke his arguments through drunken bullying and hatred. Collin Willcox as Mayella is excruciatingly convincing as the bored, housebound white woman who tries to tempt Tom Robinson into kissing her and through her actions sets in motion a rollercoaster of tragedy to come. Her speech to the assembled courtroom is superb and as the audience, you feel her anger and resentment at having to be put in such a position, having to lie to save face and what little position she has in the town. Brock Peters as the aforementioned Robinson is equally sure in the allotted time he spends on the screen. There is a noble demeanor to his bearing, and yet we are aware of the restrictions that blacks were held to in their relationships with whites at the time.
Robert Mulligan, the director and Horton Foote, the screenwriter, have presented us with a look into our pasts and faithfully etched a portrait of quiet and artfully rendered proportions that draw us into the canvas and the lives of those assembled. We have walked a mile in their shoes and been under their skin. Foote worried about being able to do justice to Lee's novel, but he worried for nothing. He has completely evoked an era that now rests behind clouds of dust, blown by the winds of time into oblivion.
The cinematography by Russell Harlan and the set decoration by Oliver Emert carry us back through the courtesy of black and white to a depiction seen only in old photographs and clouding memories of those who lived in those precarious times. Black and white films seem to have had a curse thrust upon them by the younger generation today, as boring and tedious, but through the courtesies extended by Harlan and Emert, we are richer for those perceptions that would harken back throughout the pages of history.
Elmer Bernstein's film score carries us like an old friend and helps us to make our acquaintances with the characters held within this framework. He has achieved much with a simple theme and persuades us that said simplicity is fulfilled with less rather than more.
To Kill A Mockingbird is beautifully haunting and having been made in the 60's, at the height of the Civil Rights movement, it garners our attention to stop and take the time to truly 'see' what the human race is all about and what it can and should be, if taken over the bumps in the road and onto a path of sincere honesty and purpose. No special effects were needed, no huge Hollywood budget, no splashing of a story that had a happy ending for everyone involved. It is an open book into the realities of a world tilting temporarily off its axis, and being brought back on track through the goodness that sits in the hearts, minds and souls of mankind, if given half a chance.
See it and be amazed at what real moviemaking is all about.

WJZ Criticized For Cutting Away From Extra-Innings Orioles Game in Favor of '60 Minutes'
WJZ, the CBS O&O in Baltimore, is facing criticism today after cutting away from a Baltimore Orioles game in extra innings to show "60 Minutes" last night.
WJZ cut away from the Orioles-Red Sox game, which was tied in the 15th inning, around 7 p.m. The station directed viewers to MASN, a regional sports network that carried the game in its entirety, via an alert crawl.
"We made the decision to give the vast majority of viewers a choice," WJZ spokesperson K.C. Robertson told the Baltimore Sun's David Zurawik. "Viewers were alerted via a lower-screen crawl before 7 p.m. that those viewers who wanted to see the game's conclusion should switch over to MASN." Read more

Timing Is Everything
Usually, schools will let ya know when the bus driver plans
to show up at your stop. But here's the catch – they're not always accurate. So
for safety's sake, wake up with enough time to get to your stop 10-15 minutes
before the time you're given. And don't freak out if the bus is late, either.
'Cause if there's more traffic than expected, it could be runnin' 10-15 minutes
behind schedule. So you may end up spending quite a bit of quality time with
your bus stop, but at least you'll know for the rest of the year exactly when
you'll wanna to show up to catch your ride.
And Cue the Jeopardy
So you've gotten to the bus stop nice 'n early, but gasp –
you're not the only one there. Who is that other kid checkin' out her watch?
Guess it's time to start making introductions. Think of this as practice for
all the new people you're gonna be meeting during the rest of the day, and pull
out your friendliest smile. Once you've gone through the whole "Hi, what's your
name?" bit, you can keep the convo going by asking where she used to go to
school or by comparing class schedules.
All Aboard!
The bus finally pulls up, and it's time for the real test:
finding a seat. If you're one of the first ones on, you'll have plenty of spots
to choose from. You'll find that most buses have a hierarchy of seating,
though, with the oldest kids in the back and the youngest in front. So in order
to avoid any awkward confrontations later, it's best to sit where your age
dictates right off the bat. If the bus is pretty full already and you're low on
options, just snag the first open spot, even if it's next to someone else. The
last thing you want is that awkward moment when you reach the back of the bus
and you've gotta walk back up the aisle 'cause there's nowhere to sit.
First Friend… Or Not
You've ended up with a seatmate, and now you've got a while
'til ya reach the school. If the person next to you is listening to music,
reading, or busy doin' something else, go ahead and get out your own book or
iPod. But if they're just sitting there awkwardly, it's always a good move to
smile and say hi. The last thing ya wanna do is make a bad impression by
ignoring your seatmate and making them think you're stuck up. So even if they
let your attempts at a convo fall flat, at least you'll know that you gave it
your best shot.
Manners, Manners, Manners
One more thing: Don't forget to be nice to your bus driver!
It may seem unnecessary to make friends with 'em since you're only together for
a few minutes of the day, but we're talkin' a few minutes of EVERY day. So a
smile getting on the bus and a thank you getting off will go a long way toward
forming a positive relationship. Which means that halfway through the year when
ya start hitting the snooze button a few too many times, your bus driver won't
just drive off as you're runnin' to get to your stop.

We had a lovely room overlooking Big Ben and Parliament. The view was so wonderful, the nights were spectacular watching the boats and the river lights. The weather was warm and balmy and the walks along the river embankment were spectacular. The hotel is in a perfect location, the staff superb and the service top notch. I shall return again soon.The County Hall Marriot is a perfect holiday hotel. - Marilynn
The hotel was spotless, staff very attentive and polite. Food was also of a high standard in the blue boar restaurant. We went for my 50th birthday and they upgraded the room and also laid on complimentary fruit, chocolates and a bottle of champagne. Much appreciated and went down well. This hotel is perfect for the sightseeing tourist as 5 minute walk from westminister or Buckingham palace with easy access to tube and shopping. Loved it and will go back. - Anonymous
The Thistle Royal Horseguards was excellent value for money. It was extremely central to everything in London. All the main attractions are just a few minutes walk away. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, the food was excellent. Very impressed and would highly recommend to others. - Matthew

Perfect location for New Year, everything in walking distance, close to Trafalgar Square, easy access to Embankment for fireworks and New Year day parade passed front door...not to mention the hotel festivities, plenty going on in a stylish, refined way. We were only there 24 hours but thanks to location, facilities, easy relaxed feel of the hotel it was the ideal intensive enjoyment hoped for. - Anonymous
Our deluxe room was beautiful and quirky (also the rest of the hotel).
Amenities were complete (miller harris toiletries smelled great, good
size too). Concierge and staff were very helpful and accommodating. Free
fast wifi and buffet breakfast were great too. Good west end theatres
within comfortable walking distance (to watch Les Miserables, The
Phantom of the Opera and soon The Book of Mormon). - Anonymous
I found this Hotel excellent value, the staff were really lovely and very helpful. I felt really at home. We will certainly stay again the next time we are in London.I can highly recommend this Hotel. - Heather
Although I was already abroad,the Savoy had called my home in us to see
if there was anything special that they could do for me. Also, the
checking in process is more personal than any other hotel I ever stayed.
The "front desk" has been replaced by a
"consultation" in a private room---pretty classy!!! This is
followed by a tour of the hotel with some history thrown in. Fairmont
did right by the Savoy. I had stayed there about 8 year ago;I think it
is better.Your rate was the icing on the cake. - Anonymous

In my case, I was on the telephone in another room, listening to a Friend, who has a very serious problem and I forgot about the Tea Kettle on the Stove and it did exactly that, ran dry and ruined it. I heard it whistling , but I thought it had plenty of water in it. I din't realize that it would run dry so fast. Then, when the water was gone, it stopped whistling, of course, and I forgot about it!<quoted text>
It's got a lot to do with the Govy.The Farberware should be banned at least from the old foggies cause the bottom melts when you forget and let the water boil out, and it leaves a mark on the stove and a hole in the hardwoods.And you ought to see what happens when the hard boiled eggs lose the water and they explode all over the kitchen and another Farber pot for the trash.And you think the government should not get involved. Whats wrong with you?
Hey, cut me some slack, it's the first time that I've ever let anything ruin, in the Kettle/Pot line that I had on the stove...I think that's pretty good, considering how much cooking I've done in my Life.:)
My Son bought me that Tea Kettle when he was just a little Guy, and it didn't have a scatch on it! So, I hated burning it up for more reasons than One!

You are—finally—ready to do Europe, but have neither the time nor the funds for an old-fashioned Grand Tour. It's possible to check off the Vatican, the Uffizi, and the Acropolis in less than two weeks without a litany of train stations, cheap hotels, and dog-eared guidebooks. Many of the larger lines have sailings that make their way through the continent's greatest hits. For example, Princess Cruises' new 3,080-passenger Ruby Princess does a 12-day Grand Mediterranean trip that calls in 10 ports, including such bucket-list cities as Barcelona, Florence, Rome, Venice, Athens, and Istanbul. There are multiple options for tours in each city, or you can hire a driver and see the Colosseum and Sistine Chapel at your own pace. With ocean-view rooms starting at $3,200 per person including meals, it's also a lot cheaper—and easier—than booking a soup-to-nuts trip from Spain to Turkey on your own.

Package: comm
Permute input symbols using shift registers with GPU
The GPU ConvolutionalInterleaver object permutes the symbols in the input signal using a graphics processing unit (GPU). Internally, this class uses a set of shift registers.
Note: To use this object, you must install a Parallel Computing Toolbox™ license and have access to an appropriate GPU. For more about GPUs, see GPU Computing in the Parallel Computing Toolbox documentation.
A GPU-based System object™ accepts typical MATLAB® arrays or objects that you create using the gpuArray class as an input to the step method. GPU-based System objects support input signals with double- or single-precision data types. The output signal inherits its datatype from the input signal.
If the input signal is a MATLAB array, then the output signal is also a MATLAB array. In this case, the System object handles data transfer between the CPU and GPU.
If the input signal is a gpuArray, then the output signal is also a gpuArray. In this case, the data remains on the GPU. Therefore, when the object is given a gpuArray, calculations take place entirely on the GPU and no data transfer occurs. Invoking the step method with gpuArray arguments provides increased performance by reducing simulation time. For more information, see Establish Arrays on a GPU in the Parallel Computing Toolbox documentation.
To convolutionally interleave binary data:
Define and set up your convolutional interleaver object. See Construction.
Call step to convolutionally interleave according to the properties of comm.gpu.ConvolutionalInterleaver. The behavior of step is specific to each object in the toolbox.
H = comm.gpu.ConvolutionalInterleaver creates a GPU-based convolutional interleaver System object, H. This object permutes the symbols in the input signal using a set of shift registers.
H = comm.gpu.ConvolutionalInterleaver(Name,Value) creates a GPU-based convolutional interleaver System object, H, with the specified property Name set to the specified Value. You can specify additional name-value pair arguments in any order as (Name1,Value1,...,NameN,ValueN).
H = comm.gpu.ConvolutionalInterleaver(M,B,IC) creates a GPU-based convolutional interleaver System object H, with the NumRegisters property set to M, the RegisterLengthStep property set to B, and the InitialConditions property set to IC. M, B, and IC are value-only arguments. To specify a value-only argument, you must also specify all preceding value-only arguments.
Number of internal shift registers
Specify the number of internal shift registers as a scalar, positive integer. The default is 6.
Number of additional symbols that fit in each successive shift register
Specify the number of additional symbols that fit in each successive shift register as a positive, scalar integer. The default is 2. The first register holds zero symbols.
Initial conditions of shift registers
Specify the values that are initially stored in each shift register as a numeric scalar or vector. You do not need to specify a value for the first shift register, which has zero delay. The default is 0. The value of the first element of this property is unimportant because the first shift register has zero delay. If you set this property to a scalar, then all shift registers, except the first one, store the same specified value. If you set it to a column vector with length equal to the value of the NumRegisters property, then the i-th shift register stores the i-th element of the specified vector.
|Create convolutional interleaver object with same property values
|Number of expected inputs to step method
|Number of outputs from step method
|Locked status for input attributes and nontunable properties
|Allow property value and input characteristics changes
|Reset states of the convolutional interleaver object
|Permute input symbols using shift registers
Interleave and deinterleave random data. Then, compare the original sequence, interleaved sequence and restored sequence.
Create a GPU-based Convolutional Interleaver with three internal shift registers capable of fitting two additional symbols. The initial value stored in each shift register is [-1 -2 -3].
hInt = comm.gpu.ConvolutionalInterleaver('NumRegisters', 3, ... 'RegisterLengthStep', 2, ... 'InitialConditions', [-1 -2 -3]');
Create a GPU-based Convolutional Deinterleaver with three internal shift registers capable of fitting two additional symbols. The initial value stored in each shift register is [-1 -2 -3].
hDeInt = comm.gpu.ConvolutionalDeinterleaver('NumRegisters', 3, ... 'RegisterLengthStep', 2, ... 'InitialConditions', [-1 -2 -3]');
Copy numeric data to the GPU.
data = gpuArray((0:20)');
Run the simulation by using the step method to process data.
intrlvData = step(hInt, data); deintrlvData = step(hDeInt, intrlvData);
Compare the original sequence, interleaved sequence and restored sequence.
[data, intrlvData, deintrlvData]
This object implements the algorithm, inputs, and outputs described on the Convolutional Interleaver block reference page. The object properties correspond to the block parameters.

Under Armour Women's StudioLux Back In Action Tank Top 4 4
new favorite top I have this top in Caspian and Black. It is now the only top I will wear for yoga. The fabric is soft and supportive. It looks great and I get compliments on it everywhere I go. The fit is great for me in a medium at 5'2" with a 34 D/DD. It has enough length that it doesn't ride up as I move through flow or hot yoga. The wicking is also fantastic. I wouldn't wear it for running, though. Not enough support for that, but any other classes, it's great. July 31, 2014
Good support but loose straps The top has a great built in bra with good support. However, the straps in the back are loose and I found myself having to stop my workout periodically to adjust. June 17, 2014
Not My cup of Tea I thought this top would be comfortable and functional for my daily workout but found that it is just too hard to get in and out of. The fit is good but I had to struggle to just get into it and get it adjusted properly. I also decided I was not fond of the material and at the cost of this top I know I could find something that I like better and that is easier to wear. June 3, 2014
LOVE! Stays on really well, has a built-in bra but I have to also wear a bra under it. It looks as great as it feels! May 3, 2014

Security droids were armed fourth-degree droids used for defense on starships or in buildings. This group included both military security droids and battle droids in use as ship security personnel. OOM security battle droids were one type of model, as was Z-58-0. OOM models were distinguishable by the red markings on their bodies.[1]

A recent article in MIT Sloan Management Review, "Bridging the Sustainability Gap," details the challenges businesses face in getting investors to recognize--and presumably reward--sustainability efforts. In essence, corporate sustainability efforts are growing in importance, but mainstream investors do not yet view them as relevant. The challenge, as laid out by the article, is that for investors to care, companies need to be able to measure and report on their sustainability initiatives and results. But why measure something few people seem to care about? It's a classic, chicken-or-the-egg dilemma.
The article states, "With modern enterprise resource planning (ERP) technologies and software, it's a solvable problem if management has the will." So maybe now is the time for companies to build and rely on a sustainability performance management dashboard. Corporate dashboards are used throughout many large enterprises and mid-sized businesses to measure, monitor, and make decisions on data for managing finances, operations, risk, and more. If you can measure it, and have trusted data to rely on, chances are you can create a dashboard for it.

Part I of this two-part series on treating anxiety in pregnancy deals with one component of cognitive-behavioral therapy approach: restructuring thought patterns. Part II deals with using relaxation/hypnosis coupled with guided imagery.
For a woman who wants to have children, the news that she's pregnant is usually exhilarating—at first. But that initial moment of happy anticipation is sometimes soon replaced by feelings of anxiety. A question I often hear is: "What will I do about maternity leave?"
Currently in the US, the Family Medical Leave Act allows certain employees to take up to 12 unpaid weeks of leave to care for newborns or family members. While this might be great for some women (and men), taking time off without pay is not an option for many.

"I was scared to try this when I read the post about the vodka being to overwhelming but I am glad I tried it. DELICIOUS! My 10 year old loved it as well. My husband was the one that I was afraid would not like it but he LOVED it. Next time I will add shrimp.""

Changes in mood can have unpredictable effects on your diet. When feeling down, you might lose your appetite -- or become ravenous and overeat. The same is true for bouts of happiness: Not thinking about food or "happy eating" both can occur. Why? Brain biology and behavioral cues control both mood regulation and hunger signals. And because the same brain signaling that moderates mood also regulates hunger and fullness signals, people often notice that changes in mood also result in changes in food intake -- either eating more or less.
