The Rock and Roll Film Encyclopedia
By John Kenneth Muir
- Format:
The Rock and Roll Film Encyclopedia applause Books. Softcover. 368 pages. Published by Applause Books (HL.314743).
ISBN 1557836930. 7.5x9.18 inches.
"One great rock show can change the world" says Jack Black's character Dewey Finn in the 2003 Richard Linklater comedy The School of Rock. This exhaustive, highly-detailed, yet reader-friendly A-to-Z encyclopedia takes that lesson to heart by gazing at half-a-century of rock 'n' roll films, big screen epics both celebrated and obscure.
From the 1950s and the age of "juvenile delinquents" in films such as Blackboard Jungle to more intimate, twenty-first century rock band portraits such as Metallica: Some Kind of Monster, this book by noted film authority John Kenneth Muir also features entries on rock documentaries such as Martin Scorsese's The Last Waltz, movies starring rock stars including the Sting vehicle The Bride, and even films boasting extensive rock soundtracks, for example George Lucas's paean to the age of cruising, American Graffiti.
The Rock and Roll Film Encyclopedia includes:
• 230 film entries from 1956 through 2005, including cast list, creative personnel, M.P.A.A. rating, running time, and DVD availability.
• Entries on the familiar conventions of this unique cinematic form, such as the Vietnam War, the ubiquitous press conference (in which band members wax philosophical), the rampant destruction of property (hotel rooms, specifically) and even the Yoko factor (meddling girlfriends).
Biographical entries on players who made significant impact on the silver screen, from Elvis Presley and The Beatles to Alice Cooper and Prince.
Interviews with rock movie directors Allan Arkush (Rock 'n' Roll High School), Martin Davidson (Eddie and the Cruisers) and Albert Magnoli (Purple Rain). Peter Smokler, the cinematographer who shot the Rolling Stones' Gimme Shelter, the Jimi Hendrix film Jimi at Berkeley, and This Is Spinal Tap is also interviewed.
• In addition to pure rock 'n' roll, the films included cover all genres of popular music, ranging from Johnny Cash to Madonna, rock-influenced musical theatre (Jesus Christ Superstar), tejano (Selena), disco (Can't Stop the Music, Xanadu), and reggae.
Whether your "one great rock show" is a beach movie starring Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello, a misbegotten horror/rock fusion like The Horror of Party Beach, or a rib-tickling, heavy metal mockumentary like This Is Spinal Tap, you'll find all your favorites remembered in the pages of The Rock and Roll Film Encyclopedia.

I remembered years ago, in our sailing days on the Chesapeake. Each Spring we would sail to Chestertown MD. It was always so pleasant to stroll the streets of this charming colonial town. We observed that after the spring blooms had passed the home owners would plat the leaves and tie them off with string. New Englanders would call it braiding.
A number of folks who were walking past stopped to inquire what I was doing. We chatted about spring flowers and sailing. It was a nice way to spend the afternoon and I feel much better now that the entrance to our pretty inn is once again is like our rooms, neet and tidy.

News: John Mellencamp for Senate?
He dropped the "Cougar." Will he add a "Senator?"
Fans on Facebook and Twitter are prodding Indiana rock hero John Mellencamp to run for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Indiana's Sen. Evan Bayh. Mellencamp remains silent. On Thursday, the singer's spokesman Bob Merlis told the Associated Press that Mellencamp "has no statement to offer."

Prescription Clindamycin is effective against a range of bacteria and some protozoa that cause infections in dogs and cats. This medication is often prescribed to treat bacterial infections of the soft tissue, bone, and teeth.
Veterinarians prescribe the antibiotic Clindamycin to treat a range of bacterial infections that attack bone, teeth, and soft tissue in cats and dogs. This proven antibiotic is effective because it stops bacteria from growing and reproducing so they can no longer continue to cause infection. Clindamycin is also effective against some protozoa that cause infections in pets. The small capsule form can be given directly or put in a treat or pill pocket. It's available in three different dosage levels. Your veterinarian will prescribe the right level for your pet. Be sure to discuss the dosing process and side effects with your veterinarian.

Why great mums feel guilty- too few days out and no money for the fun things
Modern mums are constantly wracked by guilt- with not earning enough money or being able to give the children the attention they crave featuring highly on the list of mum's guilt triggers, research revealed. Being too busy or tired, not being able to afford everything the kids want and returning to work post-maternity leave also made the list.
Other issues which leave mums feeling bad include not going on more family days out, relying on the television to occupy children while doing housework and a lack of patience.
The study also revealed a staggering 87% of mums feel guilty at some point, with 21% admitting they feel this way 'most' or 'all of the time'.
More than six in ten also said they feel guilty because of something someone else says, with other mums named as the biggest culprit.
Three quarters admit they put themselves under pressure with constant worries about whether they are a good enough mum.
Joanne Evans, head of marketing for babycare company, NUK, which commissioned the research, said:
"It seems mums are suffering a huge amount of guilt when it comes to their kids, within days of their child being born because of the myth surrounding how we should care for our babies.
"Whether using a dummy or deciding to use formula milk instead of breastfeeding, mums can feel like they are doing something wrong within their child's first few days of life.
"And these results show that the guilt never goes away – if anything, it only gets worse as their child gets older.
"Even wanting a bit of time to themselves sees many berating themselves for not being the perfect mum.
"But it seems mums could be making the guilt worse by putting pressure on themselves.
"It's important for mums to relax and worry less about whether they are doing, what's perceived as, the right thing so they can enjoy their youngster's childhood – guilt free."
The study of 2,000 mums found simply being too busy to give their children more attention or spend more time playing with them is most likely to leave mothers feeling guilty.
Not being able to afford everything their kids ask for came second, while not taking their family on more days out together was third.
Being impatient with their youngsters was in fourth place followed by relying on the TV to keep them occupied and not earning enough money.
Feeling too tired to give your kids the attention they need was at seven, while returning to work after giving birth came eighth.
Working long hours and staying late in the office completed the top ten.
Mums are also left feeling bad because they have to rely on a nursery or childminder to look after their children, want to go to work instead of being a stay-at-home mother and use formula milk instead of breastfeeding.
Not giving them a sibling, spending too much time and energy on the household chores and struggling to afford more holidays are also among the common guilt-triggers.
Their mother-in-law, their own mum, their partner and even their children are also responsible for some of the guilt, with 41% of mums claiming their children have said something to make them feel bad.
The study also revealed 76% worry about whether they are doing a good enough job of raising their children.
And seven in ten worry others judge them when it comes to what they do or don't do with their children.
Three quarters also admitted they would like some more support, with 61% of those saying this would help to reduce the guilt they feel.
Joanne Evans at NUK added:
"NUK has conducted the survey to highlight the misplaced guilt that mums often feel during babycare and raising their children.
"The most important aspect to babycare is that the child is raised in a loving and caring environment and that mums recognise that if this is the case they don't need to feel guilty."
*Mums wishing to participate in the Guilt Free Guide to Babycare should visit NUK's Facebook page to post their stories of guilt or its Twitter page and post with the hashtags #NUK #guiltfree

I have been lurking on GW for several years now and we finally did our kitchen renovation this past summer. I have learned so much on GW and would not have my kitchen as it is today without all of the help on GW.....so THANK YOU!!
We knocked a wall down between the kitchen and the room next to the kitchen (should be the DR but we moved the DR to a different room). So now the kitchen encompasses 2 rooms. Everything went rather smoothly other than our contractor who died 6 weeks into our 10 week project (very sad). DURING: AFTER:

Wow!!! What a transformation! Looks amazing! Sorry about your contractor though :( |
You had me from the arched door. This is a stunning kitchen, really beautiful. I love all the details and the mix of woods is fabulous. Wow. It must has been quite an undertaking planning and designing it - but OMG! The result! Wow. |

Love the arched door and the range wall. Nice job! |
Breathtaking! So beautiful!! You must be loving it. Use of different color cabinetry done well! Really like the sink and faucets :) though I am bias haahaa (I too am sorry to hear of your contractor - very sad) |
You knocked my socks off. I was looking through the old pics, thinking, if they kept that funny shaped island and only redid the counters and cabs the same way, I'm going to be really disappointed, then...BAM...WOW. You did NOT. I have to admit that it's not my style, but it's really gorgeous and an amazing transformation. So rich and elegant. The backsplash behind the range is especially stunning. I do share appliance-style with you... I hope you love your Wolf oven, that's exactly the same as mine, and I might envy the CC rangetop, because it might have advantages over my Wolf. :-) Sorry about your GC...That is sad! |
what a beautiful kitchen! looks very well thought out...love the colors! would you mind sharing about how much you spent on your remodel? soup to nuts? |
Beautiful and great attention to detail! |
Beautiful kitchen, love the way you mixed the 2 finishes. |
Great job! I love the mix of cabinetry on each wall. I love the arched doorway. I also have the orca sink with vinnata faucet and I absolutely love them. Enjoy! |
Wow, so unbelievably gorgeous! Great job mixing the woods, just stunning! |
- Posted by breezygirl (My Page) on Sat, Nov 19, 11 at 14:26
Whoa! What a warm space you've created. Enjoy cooking on your new CC rangetop! DH just put mine back together and if I could find a pan to use, I'd be a happy woman. Thanks for sharing! |
- Posted by remodelfla (My Page) on Sat, Nov 19, 11 at 14:34
WOW... just a HUGE transformation! I love the mix of woods, wavy glass, and appliance combination. The entire space conveys a rich elegant look. I bet you can't wait to get to work in there! Congrats on completing your dream kitchen. I'm sorry to hear about the sad passing of your contractor. |
- Posted by MileHighDiva (My Page) on Sat, Nov 19, 11 at 14:56
I love that your kitchen is cohesive with the rest of what I can see of the house. The pendants, chandy, and backsplash behind the range are breathtaking. I have cookbook storage envy. Great Job! Enjoy your new kitchen, and sorry about your GC. |
WOW. The granite is gorgeous and brings all of your other elements together. Love it. |
So sorry about the contractor. Carpe Diem is my motto. I was going to tell you how much I liked your cabinets and ask what kind of finish was used until I realized that I was looking at the OLD kitchen. Wow. Beautiful and opulent and parade of homes worthy. Now, back to your old cabinets. Can I have them? ;/ |
Well, now we have an example of when someone wants a two toned kitchen! |
Rich, warm , and inviting. I really love the glass on the cabinet doors and I am jealous of your 2 sinks!! Sorry to hear about your contractor though. |

Man, that is beautiful is all I can say. I was so surprised when the first "After" photo came into view. |
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Enjoy! |
Well done! Very beautiful. |
I love the knife drawer (My knifes are on the counter but if I had a bigger kitchen, I would also want a knife drawer like yours), the spice cabinet, the sink faucets,the gorgeous appliances, and the way you combined creamy glazed cabinets with the cherry cabinets. |
That is the most beautiful granite and kitchen I have ever seen. Wow!! ..truly a wonderful job of putting this beautiful kitchen together. Congrats and enjoy it!!! |
Thank you all for your kind words! We love it! I love to cook in here, drink my coffee in here, work on my computer in here, entertain the kids and their friends, entertain our friends. Rhome410-I do love the Wolf ovens. Im so happy to be able to bake wonderful cookies at last! My old ovens were the worst and made horrible cookies. Im still learning and experimenting and since we have Thanksgiving for family every year this week will be a real test with cooking the bird! cflaherty - a lot!! deedles - I sold some of the cabinets on Craigslist, still have the island along with Corian island countertop. caligal - the glass on the cabinet doors is Bendheim - Lamberts Mouth Blown Clear blfenton - thank you, I absolutely fell in love with this granite. these pictures do not even do it justice. breezygirl - love the CC!! getting used to the power of it! love having all the space, all my pots are not falling off the burners and touching each other! Forgot to post a picture of the TV! One of my favorite things-hung a Tv on the wall above the pantry door. The TV is for me, not my kids! I can watch Food Network while I am in the kitchen cooking, cleaning up etc.... |
Wow! I was browsing through the old kitchen pictures thinking those were the new kitchen pictures -- that really wasn't too bad a kitchen! But wow -- what a transformation. I particularly love your corner cabinet. Post a picture of the TV please and let me know whether you're having any success with the controller!! (I never get to use it at our house and then get laughed at for not knowing how to operate). I have the same plan for a TV in the kitchen :) -- perhaps I can hide the controller?! |

I love your two-tone cream and espresso cabinetry mix! I also noticed your clay-terra cotta, then in the next room the yellow gold. Your copper backsplash is gorgeous! |
oldbat2be - thank you so much!! i am mistaken and there actually is a pic of the TV already on here. if you look at the picture of the desk area in the kitchen the TV is up on the wall above the pantry door. im doing fine with the remote-LOL! I LOVE having the TV in the kitchen! remodelzombie-thank you for your kind words! wow that is so funny! what other appliances do you have? actually the color in the kitchen although it may look like terrs cotta in these pics is BM-Maryville Brown and then the family room and foyer are BM-Shelburne Buff, the DR is a faux finish (gold) and has fleur de lis stenciled on the walls. |

Mick, I used SW-Cavern Clay and SW-Compatible Cream duo throughout my 4 guest bedrooms. I love it! Very similar look as yours. For my appliances I'm doing Wolf Range, 2 Asko dishwashers, KA Warming drawer (though I'm liking your Miele...alot!) KA Trash compactor, KA microwave. They are just now starting to hang my wall cabinets. Did you put your refrigerator at 24 or 25" depth? I really love how you integrated your darker pieces with the lighter pieces. A very custom designed look! |
remodelzombie-i will have to check out those paint colors! I have no idea if they did my fridge at 24 or 25" depth? We got 2 dishwashers and I am so happy that is did! I love it, especially on days when im doing a lot of cooking. Thank you so much! would love to see your pics! |

Oh geez Mick...sometimes I'm so blonde!!! My fridge is Jenn Air 42" French Door, not KA! They're owned by the same company and I always get the two twisted around. I was thinking it was the installation depth, but that's why yours looks different. btw, the SW-Cavern Clay I cut 50%. In the meantime, I'll just oogle at your pics and dream until mine is finished.... :) |
Oh my goodness, that is soooo ELEGANT! That is a grown-up kitchen, to be sure! It is completely warm, rich, and lovely! Enjoy many years of good meals with loved ones! |
Fantastic! I'm so glad you posted this. Looks like your original layout was fairly identical to what ours currently is. So did you take over your whole [former] DR? And how was living with your fridge in it's old location? Ours now is to the left of the doorway into the DR and we're thinking either of moving it to where yours is, or to where your old location was. Great job! Maura |

What a beautiful kitchen! The transformation is amazing! One thing I really LOVE is the bulletin board/office area! So functional and yet really pretty! Congratulations! Now go open that beverage fridge and relax! :o) Capegirl |
thank you so much! mgreenman - I did not like the fridge in the old spot because if somebody was sitting at the island in that stool and you opened the fridge--it always hit the chair. We did take over the DR (although about 5 years ago we actually moved the DR to the LR, so we actually have no formal LR), knocked the wall down, moved windows etc. Capegirl05 - thank you! i love the bulletin board area, it gets all the mail/kids school stuff off of the kitchen counter. I have been cooking all day, had my wine, ready for bed! Happy Thanksgiving!! |
WOW - Just beautiful and filled with many luxury extra's! I like how you incorporated your desk area. I left one small wall in my kitchen w/o cabinets, I was going to put a bakers rack or something on the wall. But, I can't find anything I like. Your desk area and the bookshelf/message center above is my inspiration for my area. Not sure if I will do a sit down desk or keep it the same height as my island and cabinets. My kitchen is smaller than yours and a sit down may not look as nice as yours. I was even thinking to make it a "dry bar" when company comes and having a wine fridge built into it. I have called my kitchen guy to see if where my cabinets were built can build a message center like yours! Job well done !!! |
How Lovely! I am not a granite fan. I don't like all the specks. I was, however, mesmerized by the swirls in yours. I think they call it "movement". I think it encompassed all the colors you've chosen. I'm so sorry for your contractor's family. Not worried about you. :) Things seem to have come together just fine. |
jeannie01 - thank you!! CEFreeman - our granite does have a lot of movement, I love it! |

Hello... this is absolutely stunning....I'm thinking about redoing my kitchen and although I'm not a fan of white cabinets, I might have to consider them in order to make my small kitchen not appear like a cave...but this is really beautiful! How o you like the white? any issues with the paint yet? how about the dirt showing.. |
kali2024-thank you very much! the cabinets are not really white but rather a cream with a glaze. no issues yet, stuff wipes right off. my daughter got blue crayon on cabinet, used a paste with baking soda to get it off. |
quick question...how big is your kitchen if you don't mind? |
- Posted by athomesewing (My Page) on Sat, Dec 10, 11 at 14:48
OMG, it is stunning! LOVE, LOVE the tiles over the cooktop, the pendants and pulls -- and your granite...WOW! So excited to see the knife drawer, that looks so convenient. I just HAVE to ask, are you loving the Franke Orca sink? That's what I got, of course it's still in the box. Congrats on a spectacular completion. |
Wow, wow, wow, WOW. This is a drop dead GORGEOUS kitchen. Absolutely love it -- you did an amazing job!!!! |
wow-thank you all so much for the kind words! athomesewing - love the Orca!! |
That's amazing and very awesome!!! I love the spice pull-outs by the cooktop. I love it all! |
thanks deb52899!! |

Gorgeous granite! Love the spice pullout - wish we had one. |
Wow! You must be so excited! |
Magnificent! |
Amazing! It looks like you thought of everything and have an amazing place to cook. Enjoy!! |
thank you so much! it is an amazing place to cook and gather and we LOVE it!! |
mick2, a rude personal question... Do you find that this kitchen is too fancy for everyday life? When I see rooms like yours, I assume that it goes unused most of the time, to keep it pretty and formal. Somehow I can't imagine myself making cooking messes in a space like yours. The warm pumpkin color on walls is wonderful. Florantha |
Florantha - quite rude indeed...... I think the answer to your question is rather obvious, if I thought it was too fancy and wasn't able to use it every day then i would not have made it the way i did. We are a very busy, active family of four with 2 kids, ages 7 and 9. The kids friends are here ALL THE TIME, we entertain quite a bit, we recently had my husbands basketball team of 3rd and 4th grade boys and their families over for an end of season pizza party etc.... We have a huge Christmas party with about 80 people, we have Thanksgiving dinner here every year for 20-25 people. We have a 10 ft long island which is perfect for prepping, baking, homework etc... As for the mess, that is what paper towels are for. What's fancy?? We have tile flooring, granite counters and SS appliances like half the rest of the world. Unused?? Our kitchen gets used all day, everyday. Next time you have something rude to post I would think twice before you post it! |

Looks so much bigger and amazing! On your faucet... Is the little thing next to it instant hot and cold filtered water? What! say it isn't so!? if so that is way awesome! |
drbeanie2000: i know, crazy right?? actually it is part of the same space because the new kitchen is a combination of 2 rooms. gingerjenny: thank u!! yes, that is an instant hot and cold faucet next to the regular faucet. |
I am going to be totally honest and tell you the first words out of my mouth were, "Holy sh*%!" That is absolutely gorgeous! Congratulations! So sorry to hear about your contractor :( |
houseful-haha, too funny!! thank you so much, we love it! |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Dash!
Facts about Dash
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Gray Or Blue
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Dash's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Dash is a very gentle sweet loving eight-month-old spayed female kitty. Dash is current on all necessary vaccinations, wormed and has passed her wellness exam. This beautiful little gal is excellent with non-aggressive dogs, children and other cats; she will be a wonderful addition to any family circle. Dash is on the small size, great as a lap cat. Dash loves to be held, petted, sleep with you, just being with her people. Dash is most definitely looking for an indoor only home with a family that understands the dangers of the outside world. If you think that you are the family that would like to provide a loving caring home for this exquisite beauty, Dash, please make arrangements to stop by the adoption center on Saturday to meet with Dash.
Other Pets at Another Chance Animal Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Dash, a N. Berwick Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in N. Berwick, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in N. Berwick.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in N. Berwick already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a N. Berwick breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in N. Berwick paves the way for another one to be saved.

The late, long-time professor of biblical literature at Western Baptist Seminary, Portland, Oregon, finished this clear work after retiring. It stems from a 1960s doctoral dissertation, "The Hermeneutics of the Parables," at Dallas Theological Seminary, plus a teaching career of learning and crafting.
Ellisen sees a grasp of Jesus' parables, one-third of His teaching, as the key to being properly impacted by His words. He views parables in the context of opposition. His writing is lucid, careful in word artistry, and colorful as well as scholarly. Ellisen felt that since Jesus was never boring, he should not be. He weighs every statement to reveal the need provoking each story, main factors in a situation, the chief idea, supports for the interpretation, and how principles from each parable apply cogently today.
Among discussions is the messianic Kingdom (Chapter 2), a theme Ellisen keeps foremost, plus exegetical guidelines for interpretation (Chapter 4). Other chapters discuss hints of disaster in early parables, mysteries of the Kingdom, and stories on entering the Kingdom, servanthood, human duty and God's concern, preparing for the Kingdom, future rewards, and rejection/loss. An epilog summarizes the book's highlights.
The hermeneutics discussion discourages allegorizing, foreign moral generalizations, redaction criticism, and destructive denials by The Jesus Seminar about words being from Jesus. Five steps capture each parable's main message: identify the problem that provoked Jesus to cast a lesson in a parable, find the key idea, coordinate details with this key, clarify and defend the chief point, and apply relevantly what Jesus aimed to spotlight.
As this reviewer understands Ellisen's idea of the Matthew 13 mysteries, Ellisen sees the mysteries as relating not to the OT but to a new kingdom phase until Jesus comes to fulfill the OT expectation. However, it appears better to relate parabolic points of Matthew 13 to the same anticipated OT Kingdom, these giving facets pertinent to that Kingdom expectation after Israel's rejection and in the interadvent age before the Kingdom comes. For example, despite wide Israelite rejection, the forecast kingdom will succeed in that various reactions to its message will relate to whether people will enter it or not when it comes (soils, wheat and tares). Also in view is a present-age development of interests related to the future Kingdom so that at its second-advent coming many will have qualified to enter it (mustard seed, leaven), the Kingdom's value (treasure, pearl), separation of saved and unsaved when the Kingdom arrives (tares, dragnet), and giving the message pertaining to the kingdom to prepare people for it (Householder).
Ellisen argues that the OT predicted a kingdom on earth to fulfill God's covenant with Abraham (Gen 12:1-3, 7). He adds that Jesus speaks about a kingdom with spiritual values but on earth. "The notion of a spiritual kingdom in human hearts without these outward dimensions was foreign to the thinking of the prophets, as well as to John" (as in Matt 3:3). John expected the Messiah to reestablish an empire in place of David's, so did Luke's Gospel in 1:32-33 and Matthew's Gospel (33). The Kingdom Jesus referred to was rejected by many Israelites, and He will set it up at His future advent, restoring Israel and reigning righteously. "Mysteries" in Matthew 13, in view of national rejection of the Messiah, refer to facets Jesus will effect in His Kingdom plans, using the present age before He fulfills the covenant plan to Israel. At the same time, He blesses the receptive of other nations also. Jesus pursues a course in which aspects that the OT had not stipulated ("mysteries") must occur before Israel's national fulfillment. In these, Jesus opens up "His broader purposes of world redemption" (3 8), part of God's intent via international aspects of the covenant with Abraham.
Chapter 3 defines a parable (43) and distinguishes between valid biblical allegory and parable. It gives reasons why human allegorical interpretations are wrong; they read foreign ideas into Scripture and differ from valid biblical allegory. Ellisen notes the advantages of parables to convey truths: the stories' universal appeal, the potency of provocative analogies, simplicity, and stimulating hearers' objective judgment.
The book appears to be the best yet among premillennial works in articulating crystal-clear summaries of most parables and defending these by interpretive principles. Ellisen makes vivid use of customs to elucidate parables, and pinpoints relevant issues in well-organized paragraphs headed by bold captions. The sower and soils (Matthew 13 and parallels) has rocky soil refer to "superficial, partygoing fans" who loved Jesus' miracles but "deserted Him when the party was over." Jesus depicts via rocky and thorny areas those who are not truly saved. Leaven does not depict evil, but a positive idea: despite rejection of Jesus up through Matthew 12, Kingdom interests will prosper as God uses an interadvent era by the dynamic of the Holy Spirit working within human lives (John 14:16-17; 102), corresponding to yeast spreading in dough. Treasure and pearl depict a kingdom of such worth that no sacrifice or effort is too great in light of it. The friend at midnight (Luke 11) does not urge persistence in prayer per se, but the giving of the neighbor inside to show goodness (and God as the loving Father doing this much more, vv. 11-12). Yet God's character encourages persistent, confident praying.
Endnotes for chapters reflect wide research in relevant literature of various viewpoints. The last two pages index discussions of thirty-nine parables. Only a high rating does justice to this book for teachers, students, church leaders, and Christians in general. It is very readable, relevantly stirring, and has many sound perceptions on issues.

I started wearing these stockings about 6 months ago and now wear them virtually every day. I wear them at work as I am on my feet most of the day and they provide an excellent medium level of compression that helps with tired achey legs. It is hard to find quality support stockings at this price and most have silicone and/or lace tops that do not work well with garters which are of course essential with these stockings and 6 garters work much better than 4. I wear 3 colors (mist, barley beige and soft black) and for some reason the mist items seems slightly taller. This suits me and as a result I favor this item but all are great. They last very well although as with all stockings occasionally one runs almost out of the packet. Great thing is if this happens you can keep the odd one and you have a spare the next time one runs. Fantastic product I endorse these wholeheartedly and I will be buying them for as long as they are avaialble. Pease do not stop selling these National!!

I was so excited when I received my stockings in the mail but my excitement didn't last that much when I try them on: too short :( I mean I am 5'4 but the stockings barely reach the middle of my thighs and it doesn't feel as comfortable as I wished. However the quality seems very good and if the size were better I would give 5 stars :)

Comments about Sheer Run Resistant Support Stockings by National®:
I love the way these fit. They are very durable
Very Practical
By Exercise Appreciator

I would like to see Taupe added as it is a choice in pantyhose but not in the stockings
different fit in different color
By Midwest vintage lady
from Northeast Ohio
I like the non-run support stockings because they are better than the regular knit stocking or pantyhose at keeping the foot in place inside of shoes. I had gotten the wood beige color a year ago and have been wearing those. When I got these nude colored, they were actually shorter. Since I am short, that is ok with me.
Good quality - too small
By Kscarlett
from Tennessee
The largest size was way too short - sent them back to exchange for another item. Seems to be good quality hosiery, though.
Check these out!

My doctor has recommended I wear support hose if my legs swell. Medical brands are too tight and also too expensive. These stockings give enough compression without the expense and also are surprisingly sheer.

Wonderfull , very comfortable.
By Tommy
from The Valley , CT.
Would like a reinforced heel as well as toe. These stockings seem to be durable. I have just purchased and worn several times so far. The compression is just right for me. I am 5'-9" tall and 160lbs. My legs are shapely but I have vericose veins due to heiredity and standing all my life in my work. These stockings help in that regard and in combination with a garter belt I feel sexy as well ! They also help to keep my leg somewhat warmer on these fridgid winter days.

About Me Style Driven
everyday or special events
By Practical Mom
from New England
When told I needed to start wearing support stockings, I tried several kinds, and so far these have worked the best. (Thigh-high stockings not needing garters either irritated my legs or did not fit right at the top.) I am very happy that National still sells hard-to-find stockings for garters! I would really appreciate some kind of pearl, off-white, or cream color to wear with summer clothes; this lack makes it four instead of five stars. I have not had them long enough to test for durability, but they seem strong. I also appreciate National's Customer Service for helping me choose the right size.

Say hello to Cousin Milton and Sister Minnie.
Tailpipe was on a packed US Airways flight from Philadelphia on the Monday before last, tucked gloomily into seat 18E, trying to ignore the way his right arm and thigh were pressed against the Santa Claus proportions of 18F. The crew had just passed through collecting trash, and the plane had begun to descend over Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport.
Then one of the flight attendants began to shout.
"I knew it! I knew it!" she yelled from the back of the plane.
Tailpipe jerked his head upright to look down the rows of seats to the first-class cabin. A knot of men was tussling in the aisle near the front of the plane, subduing a passenger who had just tried to open an exit door. More were getting up from their seats and rushing to join them.
The rest were doing what Tailpipe was doing stiffening in fear in their seats and looking for signs of box cutters or dead pilots.
On Tailpipe's left, 18D was echoing the sentiments of the screaming flight attendant. "My friend is sitting right up there next to him," she said, gesturing to the first row of coach with eerie calm. "She said that he was acting weird."
Even as she spoke, the struggle in first class had died down. The muffled shouts ended, and several of the men who had been fighting were now standing around, winded and tense. Santa Claus in 18F craned his neck. "Looks like they've got him handcuffed," he said. Everyone on the plane began to clap.
An attendant's voice crackled over the intercom.
"Please make sure your seat belts are securely fastened," she said in a ridiculous parody of calm. "We will soon be landing in Fort Lauderdale."
Some of the men from the front began to return to their seats. "I think he's nuts," one of them whispered as he passed row 18. "There were all these big dudes with badges."
One man, a muscled Asian man with razor-cut cheekbones, got his bag from his seat and returned to the front of the plane. Another one, a short and stocky white guy with ham hocks for forearms, stationed himself in front of the cockpit, arms folded, for all the world like a bouncer at a rock show. Whoever had started the trouble was out of sight and awfully quiet. (A quick sedative injection maybe?) When the plane landed, everybody applauded wildly, as if their favorite singer had just finished a popular anthem.
The chief attendant spoke into the PA system, his voice quavering as he made US Airway's only official acknowledgment that we had all possibly just cheated death.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please remain seated. The police must enter the plane before you can get off."
Two BSO deputies boarded the plane through the side exit door and made their way to the front, where the alleged assailant was stashed behind the cockpit under the watchful gaze of air marshals, who suddenly materialized. The whole cabin leaned forward to get a glimpse of the cause of all the trouble some passengers even took out their camcorders. Finally, a wild-eyed older white man walked up the aisle in handcuffs, flanked by officers. Someone yelled "Loser!" Then the plane erupted in more cheers.
The Broward Sheriff's Office reported later that the man was Ricky W. Herb, 45, who was said to be on his way to South Florida for psychological treatment. He was taken into custody by the air marshals and reportedly detained for psychiatric evaluation.
As Tailpipe finally reached terra firma, his hands trembling, he looked fondly at all the people who had been through this hairy experience, including even the bulky Mr. 18F. He had just witnessed evidence of the seismic shift in attitude by the air-traveling public.
Nobody's sitting back apathetically any more. Even Tailpipe had been ready to roll.
When the African-American Library in Fort Lauderdale hosts the Esther Rolle Collection this fall, friends and fans of the actress can celebrate Good Times. This is a show for the TV memorabilia fanatic. Rolle who has a street in her hometown of Pompano Beach named in her honor represented a lot more than the commemorative T-shirts, beaded gowns, NAACP Image Award statuettes, and Emmys contained in the exhibit. She was child number ten out of the 18 kids born to her Bahamian immigrant parents.
A second-generation spinoff success story, Rolle elevated Florida Evans, the sharp-tongued maid from the '70s sitcom Maude, to matriarch status on Good Times. And like that tough-talking mom, Rolle wasn't about to roll over when the show's writers (captained by Norman Lear) wanted to push the program in what she thought was an offensively stereotypical direction. So Rolle (and co-star John Amos) threatened to quit not over a salary dispute, if you kids can believe that but to preserve what dignity remained after the show became little more than Jimmie Walker's hat collection and forgettable catch-phrase repository.

Please don't laugh but what is it supposed to look like? I made my first batch this afternoon (strawberry banana). So far, it TASTES incredible but it's a very different consistency from what you get in the store. It's not "clear" or gel-like at all. Just pretty much like crushed fruit. Is that just the difference between fresh and insanely processed? Sugar vs. HFCS? Or did I mess up somewhere?
Also, the recipe said to mix the sugar/pectin with the fruit and stir for 3 minutes until the sugar is dissolved. Pour in jars and let sit for 30 minutes. I stirred for longer than 3 minutes because it was still pretty grainy but I'm wondering if I should have stirred even longer until it was a more syrupy consistency. I'm not sure if I was supposed to put the lids on and let stand at room or temp or leave uncovered and let stand in the jars or go ahead and put it in the fridge and just wait 30 minutes before eating it. I went ahead and put in the fridge right away but after a couple of hours, it still just looks like crushed fruit in a jar. I thought I had 2 packs of instant pectin but when the time came, I could only find one so I only used half of my crushed fruit. Got to get some more pectin and finish up tonight so if I did something wrong, hopefully I can figure it out before round 2. Thank you! |

Freezer jam does look different than regular jams. It sounds like yours is what would be expected. Personally, I've found the "new method" (i.e. uncooked) does often result in a somewhat grainy texture. I follow the old method, which includes a gentle heating step. 1. Prep berries. Add lemon juice and stir. Sift in pectin and stir till thoroughly mixed. Allow to sit 30 minutes. 2. Gradually stir in sugar and heat to 100 degrees, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Pull off heat, pour into containers and allow to rest until thoroughly cooled (no condensation). Then cover and store. You could also follow the method you used but warm your sugar in the oven before stirring it in. Again, this speeds up the dissolving. I never have figured out how you're supposed to achieve a completely smooth texture (i.e. no grit) with the current method. Carol |

I should have mentioned that when the sugar is fully dissolved, the jam is "clear." It's the undissolved sugar that's causing the cloudiness. Carol |
Awesome...thanks! This did set up after a while and I ate some with peanut butter and crackers. Wowza! I may never buy jam again. This tasted so much more like fresh fruit than regular jam/jelly. I didn't notice it being gritty when I ate it, but like I said, it was on pb and crackers. I used the Ball instant pectin and the recipe only called for 2/3 c. sugar to 1 2/3 c. fruit. That may be part of the reason it doesn't seem gritty even though it's not totally smooth either. The Sure-Jell package calls for 4 c. sugar to 2 c. fruit. I'm sure that much more sugar would make a huge difference in the texture (and the taste!) I've sprinkled sugar on berries and left in the fridge overnight before and the sugar dissolves overnight and gets syrupy so it's possible this will over time too. Whatever happens, I'm thrilled with my first attempt! My grandmother used to make regular jams/jellies/preserves and those were worlds better than storebought but like I said, this tasted just like fresh fruit. Thanks so much for your help and I'll try the "old" method of heating next time and see how it comes out. I see lots of fun experiments in my future! All in the name of research, of course :) |

I purchased a Harman Stove a couple years ago after i remondled a family room, removed old unit and prepared the area for a Harman Stove. This was Aug or Sept...I was told by the dealer that it would be backordered until Feb (near the end of the winter). I then searched online and emailed the MFG to see what else could be done.
I was able to locate another unit in stock, in another store....So I bought it. Now I cannot have it serviced by a dealer because i'm finding out that dealers will not cross protected boundry lines and because i didnt buy it from the local guy, he will not even talk to me (even for factory warrentee work). and the dealer i bought it from cant help either...to far to travel. Nobody told me about these territories...I thought I was buying from a store...like if one Sears is out of stock, you can go to another. Can anyone suggest a solution? Is this common? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Seems unprofessional on the dealers part. Actually it is childish. I would think he would want the service work. I would talk to the manufacturers rep. Seems to me they can't just leave you hanging. Not sure if they can force him to service it and maybe you wouldn't want him to under those circumstances. I buy my pellets from the dealer who sold me the stove and I also have them do an annual cleaning. I don't think he would care where I bought the stove. |
Have you contacted Harman? You probably should have asked your dealer if he could get the stove from dealer B for you, just to keep a good relationship with him, but hindsight is always 20/20. I'd contact Harman, but I bet your local dealer is going to put you on the bottom of the list. Do you buy pellets and have paid service on it from him? |

The Extigy has a bunch of physical and audio standard features; allow me to explain them now.
The Unit - In a word, Beautiful
As you can see from the shot above, the actual unit of the Extigy is very stylish and modern looking, a perfect match for my Lian Li casing; certainly something which I don't mind having to look at every day in all it's sleekness. The unit is light in weight, but at the same time remains sturdy and solid. The front of the Extigy gives you easy access to headphone, microphone and line-in ports, instead of having to go behind you PC like you'd normally have to.
One thing I have noticed is the top and bottom sides of the unit can warm up slightly, however not to the point where it caused any system stability problems, and it does tend to get a decent workout playing MP3s for the majority of the day. The unit does have "breathing holes" for heat dissipation on both top and bottom sides, so it isn't really much of a concern.
Creative also include two stands to mount the unit vertically, as shown in the picture above. However, I don't care too much for this style. I prefer the first style I showed you. I guess it really comes down to personal opinion on this one.
Remote Control - Laziness for All
Being an external sound card, it is only natural that the Extigy have some type of remote control to handle various aspects of the system. The remote control included with the Extigy is slim, sleek and stylish. These three words seem to be synonymous with this product, and rightfully so.
The remote control allows you to adjust the volume (of course), CMSS, onscreen EAX options and a bunch of other things which become useful when you are on the other side of the room outside of hands reach of the Extigy unit.

Important Information >>
By Seth Keller
Purchase the complete version of this woodworking technique story from AWBookstore.com.
If you've labored over handcut through dovetails, you'll be amazed how much faster they can be cut on the bandsaw. You get all the benefits, including strong joints, classic appearance, the ability to use boards of any thickness and the freedom to size and space the pins and tails however you want. The only limiting factor to this technique is your bandsaw's throat capacity. My saw allows making joints up to 14" wide. That's wide enough for any drawer, but not for a blanket chest.
As with any woodworking technique, mastering this one takes a little practice. You'll need a sharp blade and Cool Blocks for your bandsaw (Photo 1 and Sources, page 4) and a jig that you can make in less than half an hour (Photo 2). I usually keep a chisel handy, too, for fine-tuning the fit.
1. Bandsawn dovetails require making sharp turns in confined spaces, so outfit your bandsaw with a 1/8" blade with 14 teeth per inch (14tpi). You'll also have to replace your saw's metal or ceramic guide blocks with Cool Blocks. Cool Blocks support the thin blade without damaging its teeth.
Click any image to view a larger version.
3. Locate the pins on the end of one board. Then use an adjustable square to transfer the straight lines to the remaining pin board faces. Laying out bandsawn dovetails is faster than hand-cut, because you don't have to mark the wedge-shaped pins on the end of every board.
4. Cut the first side of all the pins. Make straight cuts, following your pencil lines. Stop at the board-thickness scribe mark. Your angled sled automatically slopes the pin. I strike angled marks on the ends to avoid cutting the wrong lines.
8. Rotate the board and use the fence to cut the shoulders. Start from the back corners you've just cut.
10. Cut the pin sockets. Define the sockets by cutting along the inside edges of the pencil lines. Be sure to leave the pencil lines. Cutting the pin sockets creates the tails.
12. Test-fit the joint. The parts should slide together with light pressure. If they won't go, locate the spots that bind and pare them to fit with a chisel.

Hello Fellow Recipe Junkies,
I just love checking out everyone?s profile so I thought I would share a bit about me, just in case you are like me and enjoy it also. I am a housewife living in Texas. 4 years ago I quite working in a semi cooperate world. I have been married for 23 years to my high school sweetheart. I guess that would make him my adult sweetheart too :)
One day I was walking by the window and noticed my puppy setting in my flower pot. I can't believe I caught him with my camera to have a picture of him setting in it to share. I have no idea why he did it, just know I loved it, it was so funny!!! He has put a lot of joy in my life!
I am going to start canning and freeze food this year. I want to have meals ready for those nights you just don't want to cook and yet don't want to go out... At my home that could be several nights in a row.
I wanted to find an easy way to plan a menu. Although I enjoy to cook, I have a problem with formulating a menu every two weeks to a month. I had mentioned that I found Life as Mom blog with Meal Planning the 1950's way. Will I thought I would share with you the formula I came up after finding this wonderful tool. This is based on my family likes and eating habits.
Just A Gal?s... Menu Guide Line
Meat (such as Pot Roast), Potatoes, Vegetables, Rolls
Sandwiches or Leftover night, Carrot and Celery Sticks
Chicken with Salad, Rolls
Casserole (such as Mac and Cheese or Lasagna), Salad
Hamburgers, Fries or Potato Salad, Carrot Sticks
Italian, Homemade Pizza, Green Salad
Bar B Que or Mexican, Green Salad,
I will try and list my upcoming menus here:
As far as how I rate a recipe... if my family loves it and it is easy to follow, it is a great recipe... anything other than that is factored into my rating for each recipe.
I love fruits! Pies! I have won a blue ribbon for my apple pie, I have been more into cherry pies the past couple of years. Now that is the best of both of my favorites in my mind, fruit pies. I was brought up in the mid-west and love all the "homey" foods too.
Restaurant's I enjoy are Logan's Run and I like a restaurant we tried while traveling called The Cotton Patch.
Thanks for stopping by and visiting My Page!

HTML5 Slide Deck Posted
October 12th, 2011 Posted in IE, Tech | 1 Comment »The HTML5 slide deck I used for my BUILD Windows presentation is now available here.
Besides fixing a couple bugs in my use of HTML5 History, I made a few changes to make sure it ran in all recent browsers as much as possible. I use feature detection and provide a notice to the user if a particular feature isn't available. Except for a couple visual effects and the new advanced layout features, it works pretty well across all recent browsers. You can also download the PowerPoint version.
I'm sure it has plenty of bugs left and room for improvement in the coding patterns but hopefully you find it useful.

A couple of trees that I found from last year. I just don't have room for them. I'd be glad to bring them to the Shoreline or Bonney Lake trade, if someone can persuade me with a trade. I have one Magnolia seiboldii in a 2 gallon pot, and one Styrax obassia in a 2 or 5 gallon pot (can't remember which). I could go for a small rock garden type shrub or something else equally tempting. Any offers? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Doris, If the seboldii is the one that looks like a pussy willow in early spring, I would love it. sps |
Here's a pic of the flower: http://www.magnoliasociety.org/classification_matted_images/m_sieboldii.html I think it's a different Magnolia than the one you're thinking of. However, I also think this one would be lovely on your property! |
Hi, I've been out of town the past week, and just saw your message. I'd be interested in both of these. I think we had a trade arranged for one of the swaps last year, but at the last minute you couldn't make it. I don't know if I'll get to either of the two swaps you mentioned, but I'll try. I think I've got quite a few plants that would interest you, but let me know if you have specific trades in mind for these. Ruth |
Hi Doris, I sent you an e-mailabout the seiboldii if it is still available. craig. |
Trees are all gone, folks. |

The New Sonoma Diet: Trimmer Waist, More Energy in Just 10 DaysBy Connie Guttersen, PhD, RDSterling Publishing Company (2010)Reviewed by Vandana R. Sheth, RD, CDE
The New Sonoma Diet, inspired by a Coastal California way of eating, is all about simplicity, flavorful ingredients and the importance of enjoying food as part of a healthy lifestyle. It's a way of living that infuses you with health and energy, so you can feel great, look your best and do everything you've always wanted to do. It's a way of eating that treats meals as celebrations and encourages you to indulge in the healthy pleasures of delicious, mouthwatering foods. It's a way to lose weight quickly and permanently while, perhaps for the first time in your life, truly cherishing your meals.
The New Sonoma Diet is divided into three distinct "Waves." In Wave 1 (the first 10 days), the emphasis is on resetting your palate to avoid refined sugars, processed foods and include whole-grain breads/cereals, fruits, vegetables and lean protein. This is the phase where weight loss might be more rapid. Wave 2 is the main segment of the diet and includes more food choices. This is the phase at which you will remain until you reach your target weight. Wave 3 is the maintenance program of the diet and begins when you have achieved your target weight or other health goals. You'll continue to enjoy Sonoma-friendly foods as well as occasional indulgences such as snacks and desserts. The book provides specific plate-filling instructions, a list of foods from which to choose, recipes and suggested meal plans. The book provides detailed diet plans and menus appropriate for the different waves with the option of using the suggested menus or creating your own.
Interesting features include the New Sonoma Express quick meals and Sonoma Made Simple, time-saving kitchen strategies, a list of 12 power foods, recipe ideas for the family including gluten-free and on-the-go meals. The book also provides entertaining tips, including food-wine pairings and a pull-out guide for on-the-go eating and grocery shopping.
A lot of the reasoning behind the book is scientifically based. I especially like the emphasis on wholesome, delicious and flavorful whole-grain foods, as well as the avoidance of refined/processed foods and sugars with portion control. Her book includes diet plans and menus with flexibility to create your own based upon set guidelines. The list of 12 power foods, tips on mindful eating, dining out and exercise are wonderful additions. Also, the New Sonoma Express quick meals and Sonoma Made Simple, with a "cook once, eat twice" concept and time-saving strategies make it very applicable to average reader. The pull-out, on-the-go dining and grocery shopping tool is helpful. Tips provided throughout the book are very useful.
On the negative side, the book does not address specific calorie/weight goals.
I would recommend The New Sonoma Diet. The fact that it incorporates healthy food choices, simple plate- or bowl-filling methods, meal plans/recipes and exercise tips will allow the average reader the flexibility and appropriate tools to achieve their goals.

Here's the 411 on worship music at GVF. Our music is mostly upbeat/contemporary with an occasional hymn mixed in for good soul-forming theology. We have a lot of gifted musicians in our church & 3 full worship teams, so the instrumentation will be a bit different each week. Expect to hear an acoustic guitar, keyboard, and drums, but we also have a few can really tear it up on the sax, violin, flute, bass guitar, & piano.

Paul Gibson has his work cut out for him. Working at the policy and strategic level, he's tackling two of the biggest areas affecting disabled people's lives: health and education.
Paul is the Senior Disability Advisor at Capital and Coast Health. He works to ensure DHBs, hospitals and health services are responsive to disabled people. "Some disabled people have health issues related to their impairment. When these are accounted for, disabled people have significantly worse health outcomes than non-disabled people," says Paul.
His involvement in advocating for disability rights can be traced back to his university days. Here Paul met other disabled students at a time when disabled people were becoming more politicised. "We started naming discrimination when it existed and we were increasingly defining ourselves in social, rather than medical, terms." In 1993, Paul was involved in setting up CAN DO at Victoria University, a group run by disabled students.
Paul is now working in a medical environment and meeting some challenges. "This is a largely clinical workforce and getting them to understand disability in social terms is not easy."
Paul has a wealth of experience and skills to draw on. He went through the school system as a vision-impaired child. After a few stints at university, he gained a Masters degree in public policy. Paul has previously worked for two key disability organisations in New Zealand, the Disabled Persons Assembly and CCS Disability Action.
In connection with Paul's position at Capital and Coast Health, he is one of five people who advise the Minister on the Review of Special Education, Hon Heather Roy. "All five of us come from very diverse backgrounds, but we each bring our knowledge and passion for education."
In providing advice to the Minister Paul see his role as bringing a "perspective of a disabled person who has direct experience of the education system and knowledge gathered from years of working with disabled people and their families.
The Review of Special Education discussion document proposes a vision for education for disabled people. This vision includes what the disability community want, such as:
To be "continually learning, having friends, real jobs and enough money, things to do that are meaningful or of interest, a place to call home, loving relationships, and leaving behind a world better for our being here."
Reflecting on his experience, Paul says, "New Zealand has been great at developing visions but struggles to implement these. Disability issues have not been given priority."
Paul strongly encourages everyone to read and respond to the review discussion document.
