I want to know about the Maple grafting. Now I have many of Red Maple (Acer rubrum) seedlings, then it can be possible or not if I use them for the Japanese Maple 's rootstock? I think they are from the same genus but I'm not sure about the compatible matching. |

The rootstock for all grafted Japanese maples is traditionally seedlings of the species, Acer palmatum. Root stock from Acer japonicum will work as well. I doubt Acer rubrum would be compatible but it might be worth experimenting with. If the graft took, you may be facing continuing vigorous sprouting from the understock, which will need to be attended to promptly. |

Hi Gardengal48 Thank you so much But I think it hard to sow the Acer palmatum seed right? I tried too many time but I can't get a number of seedling. |
Acer rubrum seedlings WILL NOT WORK as understock for Japanese Maples. Understock must be in the same genetic "family" (or SECTION) as the donor tree. In this case, members of the genetic Section PALMATA. Those species include: Acer palmatum and a few more very rare species. The favorite understock plant by far is Acer palmatum. Some of the others, like Acer shirasawanum, have more fibrous stems and do not cut as cleanly as Acer palmatum. Others like Acer pseudosieboldianum do not have striaght, smooth stems; which is preferred for an understock plant. You can order Acer palmatum understock from Pacific Coast Maples or from Heritage Seedlings. |

Related Story: "Five Deleted Scenes from Esquire's Cover Story on George Clooney" by A.J. Jacobs
He is in the backseat of a dark SUV -- coffee in hand, dressed in black, hair sharply parted -- and is, for the first time in his life, reading his own Wikipedia entry.
George Timothy Clooney (born May 6, 1961) is an American actor, director, producer, and screenwriter who gained fame as one of the lead doctors in the long-running television drama ER (1994-99).
He pauses. "Yes, that's true."
He attended St. Susanna school . . . There he developed an interest in theater.
"Sort of . . ."
He was an average student.
"Actually, I pulled out my report cards," says Clooney. "I was a much better student than I thought I was. I had all A's and a B. So that's not so bad."
Clooney injured himself on Syriana's set, during a torture scene, in 2004. He had some excruciating headaches and suffered short-term memory loss.
"And," he adds, looking at me, "I suffered short-term memory loss."
You may Google yourself from time to time, but George Clooney doesn't. How could he? It's different for him. It's overwhelming. Its infinite madness could disintegrate a man's personality. "George Clooney" pops up on nearly 11 million sites on the Internet. Spend a day browsing these sites and you will find unfathomable rage and baffling adoration. You will find America with all its insane colors refracted through the prism of George Clooney.
But George Clooney is also a brave man, and today he has agreed to spend a couple of hours exploring what the Internet has to say about George Clooney. A sort of This Is Your Virtual Life. Today he will see things that shock him, scare him, and make him shake with laughter. He will see things so disturbing that he will walk out of the room horrified. Also, he will see his own nipples.
But for now, a little after 9:00 a.m., as we zip down the FDR Drive to the loft where the Esquire photo crew is waiting, he's reading aloud his comparatively friendly user-generated biography:
He secretly financed and executive-produced a political thriller short film called The Endgame Study in 2006.
"Never heard of that. It was so secret, I have no idea what they're talking about."
It is rumored that Clooney was the one to have circulated the videotape of Jesus vs. Santa (the video greeting card that gave birth to South Park) around the Los Angeles area in 1995.
"There's truth to that."
Michelle Pfeiffer and Nicole Kidman each bet him $10,000 that he would be a father before he turned forty.
"When I turn forty, I'll let you know about that."
Clooney stirred up controversy for his remarks about Charlton Heston, saying Charlton Heston "announced again today that he is suffering from Alzheimer's."
"I wrote him a letter saying I usually avoid making jokes at people's expense, so I'm sending you an apology, and I got a really nice letter back from his wife."
His entry finishes with the Heston flap. "Huh. Nice way to end," says Clooney with a humpf. But overall, he has to admit, a pretty favorable assessment of his life -- if not entirely accurate. "The hardest thing is trying not to correct everything on the Internet. It'd be night and day -- wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. So you just have to say, All right, I'll take it, bring it on."
The SUV pulls up to the photo studio. Or what is supposed to be a photo studio. It's an unmarked brown door on a deserted street in Brooklyn. "Where the hell are we?" asks Clooney. "This is a hit, isn't it?"
There is no one inside packing heat, just a photo crew, along with coffee and cookies. Clooney and I withdraw to a bare, industrial, wireless-equipped room in the back. We sit in low-slung chairs at a long table, facing a MacBook.
I figure it's still too early to alarm Clooney with the sordid details of his bedroom habits. Stick to the career for now. I click to the Internet Movie Database and scroll to his first credit: a part in a 1978 miniseries about the history of Colorado. Andy Griffith played a professor. Clooney distinguished himself as the Village Extra.
"They don't even have my first gig," he says. He made his real debut in a horse-racing flick called And They're Off. "I didn't even want to be an actor," he says. "I was just hanging out with my cousin." The movie was shot in Clooney's home state of Kentucky and starred his cousin Miguel Ferrer. "I rented my car, a Monte Carlo, to them and got fifty bucks a day. They gave me a part as an extra. And Miguel said, Come to L.A. and be an actor. I had just spent the summer cutting tobacco, which is a miserable job. So that's what made me move to Hollywood."
This one looks interesting: a 1993 thriller called The Harvest. Clooney is listed as the "lip-syncing transvestite." Yeah, he remembers that one. Wishes he didn't. He went to visit some buddies on the set in Mexico, and the director asked him to be in the background, wearing a gold lamé dress and mouthing the words to a song. "It wasn't really supposed to be credited, and suddenly this idiot director put our names on it. It was like, Thanks, pal. It didn't matter when nobody knew who you are, but now it's come back to haunt me."
I take him to YouTube, which has dozens of copyright-infringing clips of his work. There's a brilliant ad for Italian vermouth directed by Robert Rodriguez. And there's the nonlinear love scene from Out of Sight -- Clooney in white boxers, Jennifer Lopez in the sexiest grandma underwear in history.
A YouTube commentator has written:
I precisely found it pretty awful. . . . =(
"That's funny," Clooney says. "Because that's usually thought of as a pretty great love scene. Steven Soderbergh really shot the shit out of that movie. That one holds up. I try to get a couple that hold up over the years. O Brother holds up. Three Kings [about the first Iraq war] will hold up. Three Kings actually seems like it's newsworthy."
He pauses.
"And The Peacemaker, of course. Someday, a group of people will discover that one and give me a posthumous award for that."
I tell him that, without a doubt, somewhere on the Internet, we can find a fan club for his 1997 belly flop about Russian nukes. "There's no such thing," he insists.
After a couple of minutes, I concede the point. The closest I can find are a handful of positive reviews of the Peacemaker DVD on Amazon. I also find this review, which Clooney reads aloud:
George Clooney is about as entertaining to watch as Michael Jackson being raped by the Gorton's fisherman.
"Wow, that's an angry cat right there," says Clooney.
One could argue that some would find that immensely entertaining -- but I agree that I think it is meant as an insult.
"If you want to see angry, look up Batman & Robin," Clooney says.
He's right. The most popular review on Amazon:
I finally understand this movie. It's the kind of thing that Ed Wood would have directed if someone had handed him umpty-million dollars and not applied any adult supervision.
Clooney unleashes a big laugh. "That's hilarious."
Because of his various battles with the tabloids, I'd always considered Clooney to be prickly about criticism. But I'm not sure that's accurate. In some ways, he's the most self-aware of celebrities, and he knows that getting trashed is part of the game. He saw his aunt Rosemary go from superstar to has-been to psychiatric patient to respected elder. He saw his dad's career wax and wane. He understands fame.
"You ever hear of the Hollywood Stock Exchange?" I ask. "They set up a stock exchange where people trade celebrities."
"Really? I must be waaaay down. It's been a bad year."
Clooney's definition of a bad year, apparently, includes an Oscar nomination for Michael Clayton and a $311 million gross for Ocean's Thirteen. Not to mention the upcoming release of Leatherheads, the first movie he's directed since his Oscar winner, Good Night, and Good Luck, in 2005.
Clooney's stock is trading at $46, down from a career high in 2000, the year of The Perfect Storm and O Brother, Where Art Thou?
"What's Damon at?" Clooney asks. "He should be way up. Forbes did something recently where they said he's the most bankable star."

I'm on Vacation (and You're Not): U.S. Travelers Share Trip Experiences in Real Time
Author: Cathy Schetzina
Published: December 20, 2012
From slideshows and postcards to online travel reviews and social networking posts, travelers have always found a way to share their travel experiences. But U.S. travelers are increasingly using social networks to post about their trips as they travel, according to a new PhoCusWright report. In fact, travelers are more likely to post about trip experiences in the moment than when they get back home.
Thirty-one percent of U.S. travelers who are active users of online social networks have posted comments/photos on a social network while traveling in the past twelve months. A smaller share (27%) report sharing travel-related comments/photos at home or work.
"The convergence of mobile devices and social media is having a significant impact on traveler behavior, and sharing travel experiences as they happen is becoming the new norm," said Carroll Rheem, senior director, research. "With cameras nearly ubiquitous in mobile devices, much of the content shared is imagery, making image-based offerings like Pinterest and Instagram particularly relevant."
The share of U.S. travelers who own a smartphone is on the rise, and social network usage continues to grow. Sixty-four percent of U.S. online travelers now own a smartphone, up from 52% in 2011. Eighty-three percent of travelers are active on social networks, up slightly from the previous year (79%).
PhoCusWright's Traveler Technology Survey 2012 provides travel companies and marketers with a comprehensive view of how the latest devices, mobile functionality and social networks are shaping the consumer travel planning process. The research provides information and insight into how consumers' attitudes toward (and usage of) these devices and platforms impact their travel experiences – before, during and after their trips.
Research highlights include:
- Analysis of online travelers' ownership and adoption of mobile phones, smartphones and Web-enabled devices, including PCs, tablets and more
- Detailed examination of travelers' mobile Internet usage, highlighting travel-related mobile activities such as pre-trip research, mobile bookings and a range of in-travel mobile activities (navigation/mapping, flight check-in and social network trip updates)
- Discussion of social network participation among online travelers, analyzed by network (e.g., Facebook, Twitter) and frequency of use
- Overview of general and travel-related social network activities

Jimmy Wayne
- Jimmy Wayne was born Oct. 23, 1972, in Cleveland County, N.C.
- His father abandoned the family when Wayne was a toddler, and his mother was in and out of prison twice. Wayne was in numerous foster homes in his life. He was sure his life would never change, so he decided to change it himself. Once, in a desperate attempt to change his life, he swallowed half a bottle of pills and waited. Nothing happened so he decided life must be worth living if for some reason his life was spared.
- Growing up in foster homes, Wayne became an avid journal-keeper, using writing as a way of therapy. Living on the streets at 16 and a high school dropout, he was hired by an elderly couple to cut their grass, and eventually, they invited him to move into their home.
- With a stable home life, Wayne went back to high school and worked his way through community college, earning an associate's degree in criminal justice. After working in the North Carolina prison system, Wayne moved to Nashville to pursue a music career.

'Vienna was always a meeting point,' Dr. Erhard Suess was saying. ' Now we are a gateway.' Suess, the fiancé of a close friend, was having a coffee in the Onyx Bar at the Do & Co Hotel, which occupies the top floors of Haas Haus, a cylindrical, concrete-and-mirrored-glass postmodern landmark dropped into the heart of the centuries-old former capital of the Austro-Hungarian empire by the Pritzker Prize–winning architect Hans Hollein. The sixth-floor space has windows about 30 feet high looking straight across Stephansplatz at the tiled roof and towers of the Gothic St. Stephen's Cathedral. The clean-lined, hard-edged interior of the bar, with its bird's-eye view back through the centuries and international clientele, is a metaphor for the new Vienna, a place where old and new and East and West are mixed into a potent postnational energy shake.
Suess, a psychiatrist and neurologist on the faculty of the medical school at the University of Vienna, is just the man to analyze the disparate forces reshaping his city. "During the monarchy, people from all the crown countries moved to the capital and influenced its cultural life with everything from Czech cooking to Romanian literature," he says. But after World War II, Vienna was pushed to the far eastern limit of Europe, its back against the Iron Curtain. Later, during perestroika, Austrians were active investors in economic and infrastructural developments in Eastern European markets, and local companies did very well. "The roads, the buses, the banks—everything was either built or owned by Austrians," said Suess, exaggerating slightly. Still, Vienna, so long on the sidelines of Western Europe, found itself at the Continent's center of gravity again, and in recent years it's been reshaped by the currents of capital and expertise flowing from all directions, especially from the former Soviet Bloc. "We are not NATO, we are not Eastern Bloc," says Suess, pointing out the advantages of political neutrality. "A lot of foreign people are coming here to exchange ideas," says art dealer Georg Kargl, of Galerie Georg Kargl. The city has regained its multicultural dimension. The Do & Co Hotel, for instance, is owned by Attila Dogudan, a Turkish-Austrian. Another new hotel, the Levante Parliament, incorporates a gallery exhibiting glasswork by Romanian artist Ioan Nemto. A third, the ultraluxe Palais Coburg, was built by an East German–Austrian money manager, Peter Pühringer. Vienna is a world city again.
Vienna is, to be sure, still the city of Freud and Wittgenstein, Mozart, Schubert, Strauss, the Boys' Choir, and the Lipizzaner stallions of the Spanish Riding School. The ubiquitous imperial insignias and red-coated, white-wigged concert touts stationed throughout the city ensure that you never forget it. But now, as Vienna's 21st-century renaissance takes hold, its contemporary scene is as much of a draw as its favorite son, Wolfgang Amadeus. Perhaps even more so, for it offers up the added value of novelty—even to the Viennese, some of whom still remember, as one resident put it, "a gray, dirty, boring city where you couldn't get a beer after midnight."
The local government has deliberately nudged its glorious past into a discourse with the present, aiming to "fill this historical stage with young life," says Norbert Kettner, former managing director of Departure, a five-year-old economic development agency that supports creative businesses. "We want to change the state of mind." With the opening of the East, Kettner says, jobs began migrating away from most Western European cities. And when Austria joined the European Union, it had to liberalize its immigration laws and economic policies. "This all could have caused decline," he says. "But the city was smart enough to ask, What do we do with this new situation?You take your heritage not as a burden but as a basis upon which to build."

Piragis Northwoods Outfitters Boundary Waters Canoe Trips 105 North Central Avenue Ely, Minnesota 55731 firstname.lastname@example.com 1-800-223-6565 Why we do what we do: |
Why is Wilderness so Important? Here in Ely, Minnesota, our backyard is the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. In conjunction with Quetico Provencial Park in Canada this beautiful area is home to over 2000 lakes connected by rivers and portages that are only accessible to paddlers. It is still one of the most pristine places you can travel to and camp in. It is still one of the few places on earth where you can find water pure enough for drinking in the wild. The National Wilderness Preservation System was created on September 3, 1964, when President Lyndon B. Johnson signed The Wilderness Act -- eight years after the first wilderness bill was introduced by Senator Hubert H. Humphrey. The final bill passed the Senate, 73-12, on April 9, 1963, and the House of Representatives, 373-1, on July 30, 1964. The original bill established 9.1 million acres of federally protected wilderness in national forests. The law did not increase the amount of land under federal control, nor did it mandate acquisition of additional lands. Something will have gone out of us as a people if we ever let the remaining wilderness be destroyed." Wilderness offers people solitude, inspiration, natural quiet, a place to get away. At the same time, designated wilderness protects biodiversity, the web of life. Of 261 basic ecosystem types in the U.S., 157 are represented in the wilderness system. Without these large, complex areas of preserved landscape, species protection would be virtually impossible and our understanding of how natural systems work would be reduced to childish speculation. Designated wilderness protects ecological values vital to all of us: Wilderness areas protect watersheds that provide drinking water to many cities and rural communities. |

Gwynne Dyer: Coasting toward climate change disaster
They made some progress at the annual December round of the international negotiations on controlling climate change, held this year in Qatar. They agreed that the countries that cause the warming should compensate the ones that suffer the most from it. The principle, known as the Loss and Damage mechanism, has no numbers attached to it, but it's a step forward. The only step forward, unfortunately.
In the first phase of these talks, which concluded with the Kyoto Protocol of 1997, the emphasis was on "mitigation"; that is, on stopping the warming by cutting human emissions of carbon dioxide and other "greenhouse gases". That made good sense, but they didn't get anywhere. Fifteen years later, emissions are still rising, not falling.
So gradually the emphasis shifted to "adaptation". If we can't agree on measures to stop the average global temperature from going up, can we learn to live with it? What's the plan for developing new crops to withstand the droughts and high temperatures that are coming? What's the plan for coping with massive floods that drown river valleys and inundate coastlines?
Well, there are no such plans in most places, so the emphasis has shifted again, to compensation. Terrible things will happen to poor countries, so who pays for them? In principle, says the new Loss and Damage mechanism, the rich countries that are responsible for the warming pay. But the "mechanism" has no method for assessing the damage or allocating the blame, so it will become a lawyers' playground of little use to anybody else.
Besides, the rich countries are going to be fully committed financially in just covering the cost of their own damages. Consider, for example, the US$60 billion that President Barack Obama has just requested from the U.S. Congress to deal with the devastation left by Superstorm Sandy. In practice, there will be very little left to compensate the poor countries for their disasters, even if the rich ones have good intentions.
So if mitigation is a lost cause, and if adaptation will never keep up with the speed at which the climate is going bad, and if compensation is a nice idea whose time will never come, what is the next stage in these climate talks? Prayer? Emigration to another planet? Mass suicide?
There will be a fourth stage to the negotiations, but first we will have to wait until rising temperatures, falling food production and catastrophic storms shake governments out of their present lethargy. That probably won't happen until quite late in the decade—and by then, at the current rate of emissions, we will be well past the point at which we could hold the rise in average global temperature down to two degrees C (3.6 degrees F).
We will, in fact, be on course for three, four, or even five degrees C of warming, because beyond plus two degrees, the warming that we have already created will trigger "feedbacks": natural sources of carbon dioxide emissions like melting permafrost which we cannot shut off.
So then, when it's too late, everybody will really want a deal, but just cutting greenhouse gas emissions won't be enough any more. We will need some way to hold the temperature down while we deal with our emissions problem, or else the temperature goes so high that mass starvation sets in. The rule of thumb is that we lose 10 percent of global food production for every rise in average global temperature of one degree C.
There probably is a way to stop the warming from passing plus two degrees C and triggering the feedbacks, during the decades it will take to get our emissions back down. It's called "geo-engineering": direct human intervention in the climate system. Our greenhouse gas emissions are an inadvertent example of geo-engineering that is pushing the climate in the wrong direction. Another, deliberate kind of geo-engineering may be needed to stop it.
Geo-engineering to hold the heat down is quite possible, though the undesirable side-effects could be very large. The biggest problem is that it's relatively cheap: dozens of governments could afford to do it—and just one government, acting alone, could do it to the whole atmosphere.
So the fourth phase of the climate talks, probably starting late this decade, will be about when it is time to start geo-engineering, and what techniques should be used, and who controls the process. They won't agree on that either, so things will drag on further until some government, desperate to save its people from starvation, decides to do it alone, without global agreement. That could cause a major war, of course.
So we had better hope that neutral observers like the fossil fuel industries are right in insisting that global warming is a fraud. Maybe all those scientists really are making it up just to get more money in research grants. That would be a happy ending, so fingers crossed.
Gwynne Dyer is an independent journalist whose articles are published in 45 countries.
Climate change being a fraud would be a happy ending, but why should we keep our fingers crossed? The Earth is warming right before our eyes, and all around us.
Using various methods, the US Military has been fiddling with the weather since the Vietnam War when they caused flooding of the Ho Chi Minh /Trail. One would think a military historian would know that.
That will be it.
Also, "Neutral Observers like fossil fuel industries" lol.
The answer is the 29th day, not the 15th day as many people quickly answer.
The lesson is that if you don't notice the water lilies are taking over the pond until the 29th day, you have very little time to respond.
If we wait until we have absolutely irrefutable proof of climate change, there may be too little to respond in a meaningful way. The earth is a dynamic system and various systems interact and feed back into each other. We are not quite masters of this planet, unless we embark on geoengineering of huge proportions.
Oh...thats right..

Midwest Living Review
Spruce Hill Inn and Cottages offers guests a comfortable compromise between a traditional B&B and a self-serve vacation rental. There's no actual inn at Spruce Hill. Instead there's a five-bedroom manor house, a four-bedroom lodge, and 28 one-bedroom cottages.
Cottages usually rent for $165 plus tax per night, but rates may change during peak times. The cottages are cozy, but not cramped. Private decks, sunrooms (alcoves) and skylights take them a few notches above basic. As do Jaccuzi tubs in every bathroom. Suite essentials such as cable and coffee pots are standard in all cottages, and many have outdoor extras like patio furniture and grills. Spruce Hill is adjacent to the Snow Trails ski resort.
Cottages are scattered throughout the Spruce Hill property in a semiwooded setting that feels a bit contrived (most of the cottages overlook a tiny greenish manmade pond) but does offer adequate privacy. Guests who have a deck will appreciate lingering under a starry sky. Guests in cottages without a deck can enjoy patio furniture placed throughout the property.
Breakfast is served family-style at the manor house between 8 and 9:30 a.m. by reservation. The food isn't cooked to order (get there a few minutes early to make sure your eggs are still hot), but there is a decent selection of breakfast meats along with breads, fruit, pancakes, cheesy hash browns, orange juice and coffee.
Spruce Hill isn't nearly as posh as the website makes it sound, but it is perfectly comfortable and is a good option for guests who want a little more privacy than a traditional B&B.

Hydroxycut Hardcore was a fat burning/muscle building complex manufactured by Muscle Tech, another arm of Hydroxycut, before the 2009 recall. Due to reports of liver problems, Hydroxycut voluntarily pulled all its products off the shelves and began retooling their formulas. The next generation for Hardcore was Hydroxycut Hardcore X. Designed to be a more effective, yet safer alternative than its predecessors, Hydroxycut Hardcore X is full of thermogenic compounds and amino acids meant to break down fat while revealing muscular definition underneath. So is Hydroxycut Hardcore X a worthy successor to the original Hydroxycut Hardcore? Let's look at the ingredients to find out.
Hydroxycut Hardcore X contains four main ingredient complexes to provide a wide array of benefits. Below, each one is considered individually.
This complex is a great endurance booster. Caffeine Anhydrous has been proven to boost energy to help subjects train harder and longer, while using more calories. The thermogenic effect of Caffeine Anhydrous also fires up metabolism for accelerated fat burning. the other ingredients like Aminoacetic Acid and L-Methionine are the building blocks of creatine. Creatine provides increased amounts of ATP, the fuel your muscles need to work at maximum output.
This second matrix of ingredients has several different functions. Its Medium Chain Triglycerides can actually help the body burn excess calories and aid in weight loss. It uses L-Proline to reinforce muscle and connective tissues to promote stronger and healthier muscles. Finally, oleic acid is included to further boost ATP.
This third ingredient blend also offers multiple benefits. By supplying the body with more L-Tyrsoine, Hydroxycut Hardcore X can help brain produce more neurotransmitters. With enough of these chemical messengers, you'll experience sustained mental energy and delayed neural fatigue. It also contains L-leucine and L-carnosine. Leucine is a needed branch chain amino acid the body uses to spark protein synthesis to build more muscles. L-carnosine is an amino acid used to thicken muscle fibers for better stamina and heightened strength.
Like many other spices, Cayenne can be used to rev up the metabolism for increased energy and accelerated fat burning.
As it should have, Hydroxycut Hardcore X went on to be one of the most successful fat burners on the market. Its ability to not only eliminate fat but to build muscle as well has made it the inspiration for hundreds of copycat products over the years. Using Hydroxycut Hardcore X you'll get real results! But while it was effective, Hydroxycut keeps moving forward. Recently Hydroxycut Hardcore X has been discontinued. In an effort to continually offer the most up-to-date and effective products, Hydroxycut Hardcore Pro Series has been manufactured to take its place. However, many vendors still have Hydroxycut Hardcore X in inventory. Since its discontinuation, the supplement has been selling at greatly discounted prices.

Review: 'Dead Man Down' Falls From Serious Aspirations
Movie Reviews By Jack Giroux on March 8, 2013 | Comments (1)Last week saw the English debut from Korean director Park Chan-Wook, and now with Dead Man Down we're seeing another American feature from an acclaimed foreign director, Niels Arden Oplev (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo). Park evaporated any fear of him losing his personality in America thanks to the visually spectacular Stoker. His fingerprints are all over that film, and it's a shame the same cannot be said for Oplev. While a high-minded Oplev appears every now and then in Dead Man Down, he is overshadowed by the tropes we expect from a WWE movie. When their logo came on screen, audience members laughed, and for good reason. Given what WWE is famous for, one would expect a great deal of machismo from Dead Man Down. The film's more action-heavy moments are unsurprisingly its greatest strength, but that WWE sensibility seriously clashes with the drama Oplev and his cast are aiming for. The two tones never mesh coherently, leading to an uneven revenge movie.
Terrence Howard's Past, Present and Future Are Happening Right Now
Features By Jack Giroux on March 6, 2013 | Be the First To CommentThere was a major opportunity for Terrence Howard to blow up some scenery and do some violent mustache twirling in Dead Man Down. Mind you, Howard does shout, "I got something for your ass!" when a mansion becomes an overpriced shooting gallery in the film, but that's as far as the actor goes when it comes to getting his hands silly. It makes sense, considering playing pure evil doesn't seem like a role Howard would ever want to try out. Speaking with the Academy Award nominated actor, he sees his characters, even a villain like Alphonse, through a philosophical light, noting that "the past, the present, and the future" are happening right now, as he discussed using pieces of himself for a character. Despite the fact Howard was minutes away from boarding a flight, he was kind enough to make time discussing his relationship with his characters, how he proved Juilliard wrong, and more about his newest movie:

Minimum Stay | 2 nights |
Welcome! Our new vacation rental awaits you in the beautiful Arroyo Grande hills. Great for a quiet couple's getaway or for an entire family to enjoy together.
This clean and quaint house is very private, with no neighbors adjacent to you, and is located on a 5-acre parcel with its own separate access (driveway).
The house is 1,200 sqft and offers 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, an open floor plan in the living, dining, and kitchen areas, AND an impeccably well-maintained hot tub!!
The large master bedroom has a king-sized bed and its own en suite bathroom with a tub/shower combo. The second bedroom is also quite large and has one full-sized bed and a sturdy, wooden bunk bed with 2 twin beds and lots of storage. There is also a nice, clean futon in the living room that can be used as a bed. The second bathroom is in the hallway with easy access from the rest of the house and the hot tub. There is also a washer and dryer in the hall between the bedrooms.
Both bedrooms have their own TVs and there is a large flat screen TV in the living room. All TVs have satellite service and a DVR. The house is also equipped with DSL/WiFi.
In the private and peaceful backyard there is a clean, multi-jetted hot tub to relax in under the stars. You will probably hear owls at night.
The kitchen is open to the dining area through an open counter/bar area and has 2 bar stools so that you are festive at all times even when in the kitchen. The kitchen is well appointed with a dishwasher, microwave, electric stove and all the other expected amenities.
A propane bbq is located in the front yard so you can barbecue and watch the horseshoe game being played below! Also, this comfortable home has plenty of room by the driveway to park your boat or RV.
We are centrally located and only 3.5 miles from the village of Arroyo Grande with lots of fun shops, restaurants, and wine-tasting rooms. Don't forget the Arroyo Grande Farmer's Market every Saturday from 12:00 noon to 2:30.
We are located 7 miles from 7 world-class wineries: Talley, Laetitia, Wolff, Tangent, Edna Valley, Chamisal, Tolosa, etc. Fun!
We are located only 6 miles from Lopez Lake and 6 miles from Pismo Beach. Lopez Lake has water slides for the kids and fishing and of course boating.
This house will give you no choice but to relax and recuperate.
Please give us a call at (phone number hidden) and ask for Richard or my wife Christina.
There is an additional cost of $15 per head after 8 people. Thank you and cheers!
I am a general contractor and Christina is an archaeologist. We work hard in our careers and know how important it is to find a clean, comfortable place to relax. So we are proud to offer our vacation rental to you. We love living here on the Central Coast and are happy to share our knowledge of the area with you. We are personable and want to make sure you have a great time - we are available anytime to answer your questions!
Richard and Christina purchased this house in 2007
We first discovered this property during a camping trip in the area. I, Richard, have lived almost all of my life in the country at the far western part of the Bay Area. My wife, Christina, has lived most of her life in Pasadena and then moved to San Francisco where we met. We feel that this is one of the best climates in all of California. We saw what we wanted and took the leap that we have never second guessed. We hope you will agree when you visit.
One of the greatest benefits of our area is that there's plenty to enjoy without the hassles of traffic. The Village of Arroyo Grande just 3 miles west of us is a great place to get dinner, stroll around or just have coffee and relax. There is at least one wine tasting room and a wine bar. The ocean, piers and Lake Lopez are also great destinations. Not to mention Avila beach and The Avila hot springs with a well heated swimming pool. Avila also has a farmers market on friday evenings. Great fun with an incredible ocean front. You are also 10 miles from San Luis Obispo with lots to offer including it's farmers market on thursday evenings.

Re: 4g in Montana???
Answer to first question...if your phone doesn't say "LTE" below the 4g indicator you have HSPA+ and if it says "G" that means you are at 3g.
Second question...download the Ookla speedtest app and in options switch measurements to Mbps vs Kbps and run a test to see where you are at. HSPA is at roughly 3-10 download Mbps and 2 Mbps upload. 3g is slower haven't had it in a while so I don't know average. LTE is anywhere from 15-60 Mbps download and 10-30 Mbps upload.
Hope that helps but check AT&T website coverage map

They almost pulled it off. Scotland Yard had policemen on the take, it feared damaging its symbiotic relationship with News International, and the guy who headed its pathetic "investigation" left and went straight onto Murdoch's payroll as a Times columnist. News of the World editor Andy Coulson, who Murdoch's folks now say authorized police bribes, landed in 10 Downing Street as Conservative David Cameron's top flack, something like Obama coming into office with Jayson Blair—a joke, but it happened. A News International journalist, meantime, became top flack for Labour's Ed Miliband, the opposition leader, and ordered Labour MPs to go easy on Murdoch and News International. Oborne on that:
But until this week, Ed Miliband had made the pragmatic decision to ignore the phone-hacking story — explaining privately to confidants that he had no choice because the alternative would be 'three years of hell' at the hands of the Murdoch press.
Murdoch's people undertook to destroy or hide evidence and have executives stonewall inquiries. It paid large sums of money to its scapegoats, the former royal editor Clive Goodman and private investigator Glenn Mulcaire, after they went to prison—presumably to buy their silence. It has misled the press, Parliament, the press's self-regulatory body, and the public many, many times. By owning The Wall Street Journal, he has prevented it from bringing its still-flickering investigative might to bear on this scandal (while diluting that might more generally). This is no small thing. Go back and read some of the paper's many excellent page one Murdoch stories before he took it over.
Their miscalculation lay in underestimating The Guardian and Nick Davies, who have pulled off one of the greatest newspaper investigations of all time. Full stop. This one will go up there in the pantheon with Watergate. And while it's still unfolding, now, finally, they'll have a little help.
This scandal has shown how important newspapers are (in ways both good and bad), but it's worth noting in conclusion here that The Guardian is being hammered by the collapse of the newspaper industry. It loses tens of millions of dollars a year. In a few years it will almost certainly not have the institutional muscle that enabled it to face down News Corporation and its collaborators.

Receiving error that Hard Drive is failing
I have a toshiba hard drive in my laptop that Windows 7 says "Windows detected a hard disk problem." I've backed up my personal files, and now I'm trying to figure out if it can be repaired or if I'm going to have to buy a new hard drive. I tried to run the Toshiba hard drive diagnostic, but the tool isn't allowing me to select my drive and can't run without being able to do that, even though it is my only hard drive. I've checked for viruses and malware, and it says there are none. I've defraged as well. Where can I go from here?

20 Sep 2011 | #2 |
As a guess, I'd say that the tool won't run because the drive is already too far gone.
You might see what this tells you: HDDScan For what it's worth, as soon as you get a warning that a drive has problems you can just about forget it. It might last five weeks or five minutes, but it's not going to last five years. You were very smart to back your stuff up while you could. I would plan for a new drive as soon as possible; right now if you really need the machine on a regular basis. |

Few careers offer the sense of fulfillment and accomplishment that teaching does. Successful people, whether they lead large companies, hold public office or quietly contribute in their communities, often can recall a teacher or mentor who made a difference in their lives.
Widely recognized for the success of its teacher education program, which is guided by a philosophy of "thoughtful practice in a community of learners," Elon is one of only a few private schools in the state selected to offer the prestigious North Carolina Teaching Fellows program. The Department of Education prepares you for a career as an elementary, middle, high school, special education, Spanish, French, physical education or music teacher. You will learn how to use various teaching methods effectively, including how to incorporate technology in your teaching. Through specially designed classes, you will discover how to create a learning environment that meets the needs of students with diverse abilities and backgrounds.
Elon's teacher education program is accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education and the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction.
"The administration that I work with has commented on the difference they see between first-year teachers from Elon compared to first-year teachers from other schools. We are more prepared because we are exposed to so many enriching experiences that impact our performance as teachers."
One important goal of the education program is to give future teachers a better understanding of the purpose of education and the role of schools in our society. To bring these concepts to life, Elon offers education majors the opportunity to observe and learn in public school classrooms beginning their freshman year. This early exposure to a real classroom is possible because Elon has developed supportive partnerships with area public schools. A sequence of courses involving field experiences culminates in a full semester of student teaching during the senior year. By the time you graduate, you will have developed the necessary knowledge and skills to enter your own classroom with confidence.
At Elon, you can earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in early childhood education, elementary education, special education or middle grades education. The School of Education also awards a master's degree (M.Ed.) in elementary education, gifted education and special education.
Elon offers programs leading to North Carolina licensure in the following areas:
*Audition required.
Twenty Teaching Fellows will receive scholarships valued at $4,500, which are renewable annually as long as the student remains a Fellow in good standing. This is in addition to any Presidential or Elon Engagement scholarship received. Visit the Elon Fellows programs website for more information.
At Elon, you will study alongside accomplished faculty who encourage students to strive for excellence.

The sin and folly of seeking help from Egypt. (1-5) God's care for Jerusalem. (6-9)
Verses 1-5 God will oppose the help sought from workers of iniquity. Sinners may be convicted of folly by plain and self-evident truths, which they cannot deny, but will not believe. There is no escaping the judgments of God; and evil pursues sinners. The Lord of hosts will come down to fight for Mount Zion. The Lion of the tribe of Judah will appear for the defence of his church. And as birds hovering over their young ones to protect them, with such compassion and affection will the Lord of hosts defend Jerusalem. He will so defend it, as to secure its safety.
Verses 6-9 They have been backsliding children, yet children; let them return, and their backslidings shall be healed, though they have sunk deep into misery, and cannot easily recover. Many make an idol of their silver and gold, and by the love of that are drawn from God; but those who turn to God, will be ready to part with it. Then, when they have cast away their idols, shall the Assyrian fall by the sword of an angel, who strikes more strongly than a mighty man, yet more secretly than a mean man. God can make the stoutest heart to tremble. But if we keep up the fire of holy love and devotion in our hearts and houses, we may depend upon God to protect us and them.
Isaiah 31:1-9 . THE CHIEF STRENGTH OF THE EGYPTIAN ARMIES LAY IN THEIR CAVALRY.
1. and stay on horses, and trust in chariots--In their level and fertile plains horses could easily be used and fed ( Exodus 14:9 , 1 Kings 10:28 ). In hilly Palestine horses were not so easily had or available. The Jews were therefore the more eager to get Egyptian chariots as allies against the Assyrian cavalry. In Assyrian sculptures chariots are represented drawn by three horses, and with three men in them (see Isaiah 36:9 , Psalms 20:7 , Daniel 9:13 ).
2. he also is wise--as well as the Egyptian priests, so famed for wisdom ( Acts 7:22 ), but who are "fools" before Him ( Isaiah 19:11 ). He not only devises, but executes what He devises without "calling back His words" ( Numbers 23:19 ).
home--the whole race.
help--the Egyptian succor sought by the Jews.
3. not spirit--not of divine power ( Psalms 56:4 , Psalms 146:3 Psalms 146:5 , Zechariah 4:6 ).
he that helpeth--Egypt.
4. ( Isaiah 42:13 , Hosea 11:10 ).
roaring on--"growling over" his prey.
abase himself--be disheartened or frightened.
5. As in the image of "the lion," the point of comparison is the fearless might of Jehovah; so in that of the birds, it is His solicitous affection ( Deuteronomy 32:11 , Psalms 91:4 , Matthew 23:37 ).
flying--Rather, "which defend" their young with their wings; "to fly" is a secondary meaning of the Hebrew word [MAURER]. "Hovering over" to protect their young [G. V. SMITH].
passing over--as the destroying angel passing over, so as to spare the blood-marked houses of the Israelites on the first passover ( Exodus 12:13 Exodus 12:23 Exodus 12:27 ). He passed, or leaped forward [LOWTH], to destroy the enemy and to spare His people.
6. The power and love of Jehovah, just mentioned, are the strongest incentives for returning to Him ( Ezekiel 16:62 Ezekiel 16:63 , Hosea 6:1 ).
ye . . . Israel--The change of person marks that when they return to the Lord, He will address them in more direct terms of communion in the second person; so long as they were revolters, God speaks of them, as more at a distance, in the third person, rather than to them.
7. In the day of trial the idols will be found to render no help and will therefore be cast away. Compare as to the future restoration and conversion of Israel simultaneously with the interposition of Jehovah in its defense, Zechariah 12:9-14 , Zechariah 13:1 Zechariah 13:2 .
for a sin--that is, whereby especially you contracted guilt ( 1 Kings 12:30 ).
8. Assyrian--Sennacherib, representative of some powerful head of the ungodly in the latter ages [HORSLEY].
sword, not of . . . mighty . . . mean man--but by the unseen sword of God.
flee--Sennacherib alone fled homewards after his army had been destroyed ( Isaiah 37:37 ).
young men--the flower of his army.
discomfited--rather, "shall be subject to slavery"; literally, "shall be liable to tribute," that is, personal service ( Deuteronomy 20:11 , Joshua 9:21 ) [MAURER]. Or, not so well, "shall melt away" [ROSENMULLER].
9. Rather, "shall pass beyond his strongholds"; he Shall not stop to take refuge in it through fear ( Judges 20:47 , Jeremiah 48:28 ) [GESENIUS].
ensign--the banner of Jehovah protecting the Jews [MAURER].
fire . . . furnace--"light" and "fire," namely, of Jehovah's altar at Jerusalem ( Isaiah 29:1 ). Perhaps "furnace," as distinguished from "fire," may mean that His dwelling-place (His hearth) was at Jerusalem (compare Isaiah 4:5 ); or else the fiery furnace awaiting all the enemies who should attack Jerusalem.

Critical pedagogy, Education--Effect of technological innovations on, Educational technology, Language arts (Early childhood)Abstract:
Contents: Setting a context for exploring critical literacies using technology -- Teaching and learning with VoiceThread -- Yes we can! Using technology as a tool for social action -- Our families don't understand English! -- What about Antarctica? -- The tomato trials -- Picture this: using photography as a tool for critical literacy -- Desires, identities, and new communication technologies.; Summary: "What do new technologies and new forms of communication mean for young children growing up in the 21st century? How are they shaping the mindsets, identities and practices which impact their lives at home and at school? This book explores the intersection of technology and critical literacy, specifically addressing what ICTs afford critical literacy work with young children between ages three to eight. Inviting readers to enter classrooms where both technology and critical literacies are woven into childhood curricula and teaching, it brings together literacy, social studies, and science in critical and integrated ways. Real-world stories show the sights and sounds of children engaged with technology in the classroom and beyond. Concise but comprehensive, the text provides strategies, theoretical frameworks, demonstrations of practice, and resources for teachers. Pedagogical features in each chapter engage readers in making connections to their own teaching situations. NCATE standards for including technology as an essential part of teacher education programs are addressed. While acknowledging how individual children employ ICT, the focus is on how new technologies can be positioned in early childhood learning communities as tools for engaging in more meaningful, authentic, and interesting learning"-- Provided by publisher.

Guess That Rhyme is a word game for all ages. Guess That Rhyme is very easy to play and addictively fun.
Guess That Rhyme appeals to those who consider themselves wordsmiths, aspiring musicians, grammaticians, lovers of the English language, masters of word games, crossword hounds, and so much more.
Guess That Rhyme can be used as an educational tool for learning spelling and rhyming. Using an advanced rhyme engine, Guess That Rhyme includes over 200,000 english words in its database. All these rhymes are accessible at the tap of your finger.
Guess That Rhyme will provide a perfect amount of entertainment and improve your rhyming skills. Guess That Rhyme is the ideal companion game for going to the DMV, shopping with the family, jury duty, TV commercials, and any situation when you have a few minutes of free time.
Guess That Rhyme is quite simple to play: Upon launch, a player sees a random word on the screen. The player has 20 seconds to find a rhyming word and press the "submit" button. If the player is correct they are able to move forward to the next word.
As the player continues entering words, Guess That Rhyme becomes progressively more difficult. The player is shown rarer words which have less rhyme pairs. It is the goal of the player to find a word that rhymes with the displayed word as quickly as possible! The player gets points for how quickly they can come up with a rhyming word and how long the word they submit is.
The Guess That Rhyme team believes that games should be fun, fair, and a little enlightening.
We hope you enjoy Guess That Rhyme as much as we enjoyed building it. The Guess That Rhyme team is based in Portland, Oregon and you can contact them at www.guessthatrhyme.com. With your help, we hope to make Guess That Rhyme the new king of rhyming games.
We built Guess That Rhyme using the latest versions of XCode and Adobe Illustrator. Guess That Rhyme is written natively for iPhone and iPod touch using Objective-C.

East Haddam shows generous heart with Stuff a Cruiser donations
Even though many in this state continue to struggle financially, this didn't keep many kind-hearted residents from turning out with gifts and monetary donations for this past weekend's Stuff-a-Cruiser collection.
Dozens of toys were contributed to brighten the holidays for local children in need, from stuffed animals to tricycles.
The rainy day did seem put a little bit of a damper on the collection, compared with last year, said East Haddam Officer Karl Karabeinikoff.
"Everyone is still struggling, so it's nice that people are still so generous," he said.
Those who still want to participate can make donations of new, unwrapped toys or financial donations to the East Haddam Youth and Family Services, which will be distributing the gifts.
"They will accept donations for a little while longer," Karabeinikoff said. (For more information, 860-873-3296 during town office hours.)
The offices are located at 387 East Haddam-Moodus Road, in the Moodus section of East Haddam.
Parents or guardians of children from infants to age 18 who live in the East Haddam/Moodus community and are in need of gifts are also encouraged to contact EHYFS at 860-873-3296.
Also helping to collect toys this weekend were Officer Tom Griffith and Police Explorers Chloe Dicosnio and Rachel Lawrence.
Karabeinikoff said this kind of drive helps put him in the Christmas spirit. He also looks forward to helping Big Brothers/Big Sisters deliver gifts all over the New Haven area. "That always makes me feel good," he said.
