The Kitchen Vignettes food blog has released a review of 'Ice Bowls.' The recipe and detailed video have been done in association with a Reader's Digest frozen desserts feature. Aube Giroux, also known as the Canadian mastermind behind the website, has broken down all of the steps involved in the production of these ornate ice cream and sorbet holders.
The ice bowls are entirely different from the majority of kitchen vessels insofar as they are translucent and have the practical ability to keep food cold. In this editorial, Giroux breaks down her inclusion of flowers, berries and herbs into the bowls, making for a rather eclectic display of summertime treats.
The best part of this culinary Kitchen Vignettes project is its minimalist quality as it solely requires the use of containers, water, heavy objects and simple natural ingredients.

Ever since word got out that Alberto Contador rejected a rumored 16 million Euro/four-year contract extension with Astana, it's been an all-but foregone conclusion that the 2009 Tour de France winner was headed to another team; the question was merely which one.
Last Friday, Contador weighed in on his plans, saying that he was interested in both Caisse d'Epargne and a possible new team founded by Formula1 driver Fernando Alonso and said to be sponsored by Banco Santander.
But on Saturday, Astana said their piece, and it went something like this: not so quick on the draw there, Pistolero.
In one of its fantastic DPRK-style press releases, Astana said that "in order to clarify some misunderstandings reported in the media, the Astana Cycling Team reconfirms that 2009 Tour de France winner Alberto Contador is expected to ride for Team Astana in 2010." Contador is under contract with the team next year and had been widely thought to be trying to negotiate an early exit from his deal.
Rinus Wagtmans, a former pro who first popped into the Astana universe as a negotiator for the team during its financial troubles, appears to be some sort of new heavy for the team. After saying that the sponsors were "keen to continue" until at least 2013, Wagtmans said that a transfer for Contador was "not negotiable and we will honor the signed contract."
(Wagtmans also chimed in on Johan Bruyneel, who hasn't made any appearances on behalf of the team since the Tour, saying that Bruyneel - who will direct Armstrong on Astana at the upcoming Tour of Ireland - had "ensured that he, as well as all riders and staff of the Team are looking forward to the remaining part of the season.")
Contador hasn't yet responded, but given his apparently strong desire to NOT ride for Astana next year, it's doubtful that this is the last word on the subject, and he still has several options.
First, he can challenge the validity of his contract. As Charles Pelkey pointed out on VeloNews, Contador's contract may include provisions about the makeup of the team and management - with Bruyneel out and a new group presumably on the way in, Contador may argue that the work environment has changed so much that it nullifies his contract.
He could also claim breach of contract based on Astana's past money troubles, although that's perhaps less likely. What is interesting there is that a team that apparently didn't have two tenge to rub together is now fiscally solvent enough to throw out what may be the fattest contract offer ever given to a cyclist, and be stable enough to continue for four more years.
Astana is not one of the five ProTour teams that had to apply for renewal of its license this year, but its financial issues are probably viewed in a dim light by the UCI, particularly if they stemmed not from actual fiscal distress but from political strongarming over stuff like Alexander Vinokourov coming back on board (he's still not).
The UCI, by its own rules, can pull Astana's ProTour license if the team engages in behavior that harms the image of cycling or the ProTour. Usually, that's shorthand for being chock-full of dopers, but it doesn't take that inventive of a reading to expand it to the kind of financial shenanigans that were a major storyline at the Giro d'Italia.
Astana, already one of the oddest outfits seen in pro cycling in recent memory, is on the verge of getting a whole lot stranger. Most of the core of the team will likely leave - to RadioShack and other top teams - and it's also expected that Vinokourov and Andrey Kashechkin will both ride for the team in 2010 now that their doping suspensions have expired.
In the rumor-mill of transfer news, Astana is said not only to be losing numerous riders, but the pickups, beyond Vino-Kash, contain no big names - Lampre's Paolo Tiralongo is the most prominent rider linked to the team.
Here's what that says to me: the team is kryptonite on the ProTour, and riders know it. If Contador does manage an out, and Kash and Vino return, do not expect to see this team at the 2010 Tour or Vuelta Espana (remember that Tour organizer Amaury Sports Organization now owns 49 percent of Vuelta promoter Unipublic). Astana could see an even more pronounced repeat of 2008, when the team was overlooked for the Tour and (nearly) the Giro d'Italia.
ASO also promotes Paris-Tours, Paris-Nice, Criterium Internationale, Paris-Roubaix, Fleche Wallonne, and Liege-Bastogne-Liege. Because these events are on the UCI's "historical" calendar, the ASO isn't contractually bound to invite all ProTour teams and has a documented history of dropping teams it feels have unsavory reputations (this year, it left out Fuji-Servetto).
Astana knows this too. Contador is the team's meal ticket - its primary shot at entry into the biggest races and a draw for riders seeking contracts. Without him, they're sunk. But the press release, the language, the whole thing smacks of desperation. And Contador clearly doesn't want to race for Astana and will likely try a number of avenues to get out of his contract. The longer that drags on, the more it hurts Astana as riders sign with other teams (it also hurts Contador too).
What's going to eventually happen? I don't know, but it'll make for an interesting offseason.

In some cases you may only need one PoE line; with the TPE-111GI you can run this straight from your regular switch and not have to foot the extra cost for a full PoE switch.
The design is quite simple and really consists of not much more than a "brick" that you would plug into the wall. On one side you would have the non power Ethernet connection and on the other would be the powered side.

They are orange, but really really hard. Might that just be the variety? In any case, when do you pick them?
This is the first year the tree has produced more than a dozen fruit. There must be a hundred on there now. Thanks for the persimmon advice. We make persimmon bread with the fruit. |

If you have the astringent types, such as 'Hachiya' that looks like an upside-down pear, you can pick them as soon as they turn deepest orange. They'll be hard but they ripen best off the tree. Once off the tree, allow them to turn almost-mushy soft to become edible-sweet without being astringent. If you have the non-astringent type, such as 'Fuyu' that looks like a squat tomato, you pick it as soon as it's a nice color. It can be eaten while still firm. They will soften to mushy and can be used as the ones above but most people prefer to eat them firm in salads, etc.. Joe |
Generally I would agree with Joe, except if you have birds, squirrels and raccoons, you may have to forego the waiting until the deepest orange color, and pick them now. Squirrels in particular can be nasty, and bite into every persimmon well before they are sweet/soft enough to eat. They do ripen well off the tree, and here in the East Bay, they are already colored up enough to pick. |

The Mirror Has Two Faces
Image Source: Movie Goods
Gregory Larkin is a Mathematics teacher at Columbia University, who, after failed relationships, posted an ad on a newspaper, hoping to meet someone whom he could settle with based on intellect and not on physical attraction. He got interested in one particular letter from an English literature professor, Rose Morgan, also at Columbia University. He found out later, though, that it was Rose's sister who mailed letter because she was sure Rose wouldn't answer the ad herself.
Gregory visited Rose in one of her classes and was impressed by her teaching. He got interested with her objective point of view about love but did not stay long enough to hear that Rose actually believes in love and romance. He gave her a call and Rose was overwhelmed to find out how good looking he was. She made so much fuss when he asked her out and preferred to ignore his renounce of sex and physical relationship and continued to date him. They soon found themselves having fun with each other. Rose started to get attracted to Gregory while Gregory felt more and more comfortable being with Rose.
Eventually, Gregory proposed marriage to Rose, but not before he told him about the advertisement he posted and how her sister, Claire, answered the ad and sent Rose's picture. Rose didn't mind because after all, it was she whom Gregory chose. So, regardless of Gregory's unorthodox view on sex and relationships and her mother, Hannah's skepticism about the whole thing, Rose agreed to marry Gregory and they lived together based on compatibility and genuine friendship.
Gregory, though unconsciously starting to get physically attracted to his wife wanted everything to stay the way it was. Rose, however, found it difficult to keep her end of the bargain and started to feel physical longing for her husband. So, one night, keeping in mind Gregory's promise to provide her with sex when she needs it, she tried to seduce Gregory. Everything went out badly and Rose felt embarrassed, unloved and unwanted. She left, knowing that Gregory will be on a lecture tour for a while.
While Gregory was away, Rose devoted her time to self-improvement by losing weight and learning how to fix her hair and apply make-up. So, when Gregory came back, he was surprised to find a completely different Rose from the one he left. Rose was hurt to find out that Gregory didn't want her new look either. She moved out of the house and away from Gregory.
Gregory admitted to himself that he was already physically attracted to his wife and wanted her back. He felt jealous when he learned that Rose went out with Alex and rushed to her apartment to express his genuine affection. He yelled out to Rose and admitted his love for her and Rose, thrilled by the romance of the situation came down and they ended up into each other's arms.

So it seems that if Lopez signs the deal, Quantum will own 35% of the team with options for a complete buyout in the future. It also could signify that Nico Hulkenberg may have a reason to get excited about 2014 as the German has been linked to the team should the Quantum deal go through.

McCullers, Carson
Carson McCullers (1917-1967) wrote stories of lonely, obsessed, reclusive characters. McCullers moved to New York when she was 17 to study piano, but instead, ended up going to both NYU and Columbia to study creative writing. Her writing corresponded with her life, as it was often in flux and challenging. For much the time, she was debilitated by poor health, but she continued to work as long as she could, adapting her work to stage and film.
McCullers was considered a star among her peers because of the depth and intuition inherent in her work. Her most widely received works were The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, published in 1940, and Reflections in a Golden Eye, published in 1942. The Member of the Wedding also became widely known due to its adaptation to other media.

Carson McCullers Quotes
"If you would not be forgotten as soon as you are gone, either write things worth reading or do things worth writing."
"I live with the people I create and it has always made my essential loneliness less keen."
"My advice to you is this. Do not attempt to stand alone. …The most fatal thing a man can do is try to stand alone." (The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, 1940)
"What are the sources of an illumination? To me, they come after hours of searching and keeping my soul ready. Yet they come in a flash, as a religious phenomenon. The Heart is a Lonely Hunter had such an illumination, beginning my long search for the truth of the story and flashing light into the long two years ahead."
"There is no stillness like the quiet of the first cold nights in the fall." (The Ballad of the Sad Cafe and Other Stories, 1951)
"The theme is the theme of humiliation, which is the square root of sin, as opposed to the freedom from humiliation, and love, which is the square root of wonderful."
"It is music that causes the heart to broaden and the listener to grow cold with ecstasy and fright." (The Ballad of the Sad Cafe and Other Stories, 1951)
"All we can do is go around telling the truth." (The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, 1940)
"It was better to be in a jail where you could bang the walls than in a jail you could not see." (The Member of the Wedding, 1946)
"Maybe when people longed for a thing that bad the longing made them trust in anything that might give it to them." (The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, 1940)
"We wander, question. But the answer waits in each separate heart – the answer of our own identity and the way by which we can master loneliness and feel that at last we belong." (The Mortgaged Heart: Selected Writings, 1971)
"In the face of brutality I was prudent. Before injustice I held my peace. I sacrificed the things in hand for the good of they hypothetical whole. I believed in the tongue instead of the fist. As an armor against oppression I taught patience and faith in the human soul I know now how wrong I was. I have been a traitor to myself and to my people. All that is not. Now is the time to act and to act quickly. Fight cunning with cunning and might with might." (The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, 1940)
"Her face felt like it was scattered in pieces and she could not keep it straight. The feeling was a whole lot worse than being hungry for any dinner, yet it was like that. I want–I want–I want–was all that she could think about–but just what this real want was she did no know." (The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, 1940)
"This fear is one of the horrors of an author's life. Where does work come from? What chance, what small episode will start the chain of creation? I once wrote a story about a writer who could not write anymore, and my friend Tennessee Williams said, 'How could you dare write that story, it's the most frightening work I have ever read.' I was pretty well sunk while I was writing it."
"The thinking mind is best controlled by the imagination." (Illumination and Night Glare: The Unfinished Autobiography of Carson McCullers, 1999)
"The writer by nature of his profession is a dreamer and a conscious dreamer. He must imagine, and imagination takes humility, love and great courage. How can you create a character without love and the struggle that goes with love?"
"How can the dead be truly dead when they still live in the souls of those who are left behind?" (The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, 1940)
"The mind is like a richly woven tapestry in which the colors are distilled from the experiences of the senses, and the design drawn from the convolutions of the intellect."
"…most of us would rather love than be loved. Almost everyone wants to be the lover. And the curt truth is that, in a deep secret way, the state of being beloved is intolerable to many. The beloved fears and hates the lover, and with the best of reasons. For the lover is forever trying to strip bare his beloved. The lover craves any possible relation with the beloved, even if this experience can cause him only pain." (The Ballad of the Sad Cafe and Other Stories, 1951)
"She wished there was some place where she could go to hum it out loud. Some kind of music was too private to sing in a house cram fall of people. It was funny, too, how lonesome a person could be in a crowded house." (The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, 1940)
"We are torn between nostalgia for the familiar and an urge for the foreign and strange. As often as not, we are homesick most for the places we have never known."
"The most fatal thing a man can do is try to stand alone." (The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, 1940)
"Love is a joint experience between two persons — but the fact that it is a joint experience does not mean that it is a similar experience to the two people involved." (The Ballad of the Sad Cafe and Other Stories, 1951)
"But no value has been put on human life; it is given to us free and taken without being paid for. What is it worth? If you look around, at times the value may seem to be little or nothing at all. Often after you have sweated and tried and things are not better for you, there comes a feeling deep down in the soul that you are not worth much." (The Ballad of the Sad Cafe and Other Stories, 1951)
"For fear is a primary source of evil. And when the question "Who am I?" recurs and is unanswered, then fear and frustration project a negative attitude. The bewildered soul can answer only: "Since I do not understand 'Who I am,' I only know what I am not." The corollary of this emotional incertitude is snobbism, intolerance and racial hate. The xenophobic individual can only reject and destroy, as the xenophobic nation inevitably makes war." (The Mortgaged Heart: Selected Writings, 1971)
"Any form of art can only develop by means of single mutations by individual creators. If only traditional conventions are used an art will die, and the widening of an art form is bound to seem strange at first, and awkward. Any growing thing must go through awkward stages. The creator who is misunderstood because of his breach of convention may say to himself, 'I seem strange to you, but anyway I am alive."
"The way I need you is a loneliness I cannot bear."

Lazy Mom
Sunday, March 30th, 2008I wish I was rich enough to afford a Segway and cruel enough to not care if my kid died or not…
… 'Cause I'm already lazy enough to want to do this.
I wish I was rich enough to afford a Segway and cruel enough to not care if my kid died or not…
… 'Cause I'm already lazy enough to want to do this.
From BoingBoing comes these great paper laptops designed by 7-year old kids.
Fascinatingly the kids put all kinds of things in there that would not be on a square old conventional keyboard, like Harry Potter Trivia, Friends, a Google button, and Hamster. Some kids put Math buttons and Homework buttons on theirs, and several have iPod and even iPhone buttons. My favorite kid is a little muddle called Alana who has a button specifically for "Firewall" and a little button in the corner for "Love."

For a while I was posting little movies of my kid to YouTube but I ran into a lot of issues.
First of all, their service does not accept .MOV files and that is the file type that my camera outputs, so I had to go through a (lossy) conversion process, then upload the .AVI file to YouTube. Also, YouTube doesn't have any editing tools, so basically, you're stuck with the video you took, even if it ends stupidly.
It also has a little bit more of an updated feel than YouTube, more user-friendly and community oriented. So it gets my vote, and someday we may be saying "WhoTube?"
- Zac
This company called SomeECards has some pretty awesome e-mailable greeting cards, including cards for suckers who are new parents:
These new movie poster style birth announcements from 5-Star Baby are pretty cute.
I especially like the fact that they try to come up with cool movie titles that incorporate in the kid's name, and also include the doctors and hospital in the small print at the bottom.
I have to admit though, I don't envy their task of taking the grainy out of focus photos that new parents send in and make them look like movie posters.
I know I took about a hundred pictures of Hank in his little newborn hat trying to get just the right shot to put on his birth announcement, and even then it was a little dark and fuzzy (trying not to use the flash in the dim light of the nursery was maybe not the best technical choice).
Well done 5-Star Baby!
- Zac
My name is Zac and I am a Baby Photoshopper.
Is it bad to Photoshop the zits and boogers off of your kid's face before posting photos to the family website? Cropping is probably OK, right? And "Red-Eye Remover?" Where does that fall? I'm not talking about slimming 20 pounds off of Katie Couric's ass or anything, I'm just blurring, brushing, stamping, and eyedroppering out the unpleasant bits of my kid's childhood.
See how the terrifying "DANGER" logo from the car seat is gone? Doesn't that make for a more aesthetically pleasing image for Grandma to see?
How about this one: Drooly, barfy, but still a cute picture, right?
No more drool or spit-up, cleaned up the eczema on the cheeks, now he doesn't look like he lives pools of his own fluids every day.
Is that bad? Is it vain? Is it just utilizing of the technology available today? Or is this somehow driven by a deeper Darwinian need to prove to the world that my kid is the best?
If anybody sees Dr. Phil, have him give me a call.

Frostbite Falls most famous residents are coming to the big screen in 2014, according to DreamWorks Animation. Not only are Moose and Squirrel making their big screen debut in a new theatrical short, but a long-time voice actor is returning to provide one of the duo's voices. While not explicitly stated in the release, it is expected that the short will accompany the theatrical feature film release of Mr. Peabody & Sherman.
Tag Archives: Voice Cast
DreamWorks Adds Two To Head Home
DreamWorks Animation has added two hot names to the voice cast of next year's Home. Look for comedian Steve Martin to take on Captain Smek, the leader of the alien race known as Boov. Jennifer Lopez is also moving Home, playing the teenage girl Tip's mother. Lopez and Martin join the existing cast of "The Big Bang Theory" star Jim Parsons as the alien Oh and singer Rihanna as Tip, the teenage girl.
Will Ferrell, Liam Neeson Join Animated "Lego" Voice Cast
Will Ferrell, Liam Neeson, Nick Offerman and Alison Brie are the latest stars to sign on for the new feature film adventure Lego: The Piece of Resistance, Warner Bros. Pictures announced.
The four will join Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett and Morgan Freeman in voicing characters for the upcoming original 3D animated film, set for a February 7, 2014 release from Warner Bros. Pictures and Village Roadshow Pictures. The movie is currently in production.
The first-ever full-length theatrical Lego movie follows Emmet, an ordinary, rules-following, perfectly average Lego minifigure who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving the world. He is drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant, a journey for which Emmet is hopelessly and hilariously underprepared.
Ferrell (The Campaign) stars as the voice of Emmet's primary adversary, President Business, an erudite, anal-retentive CEO who has a hard time balancing world domination with micro-managing his own life. Neeson (Taken and Taken 2, Oscar nominee for Schindler's List) stars as the voice of the president's powerful henchman, known as Bad Cop, who will stop at nothing to catch Emmet.
Offerman (NBC's Parks and Recreation) takes on the role of a craggy, swaggering pirate obsessed with revenge on President Business, and Brie (NBC's Community) plays a sweet, lovable member of Emmet's team with a powerful secret. Pratt (Moneyball) stars as the voice of Emmet.
Oscar winner Freeman (Million Dollar Baby) and Banks (The Hunger Games, Emmy nominee for 30 Rock), will star as two of Emmet's fellow travelers: Vitruvius, an old mystic; and tough-as-nails Lucy, who mistakes Emmet for the savior of the world and guides him on his quest. Lucy also calls upon the mysterious Batman, a Lego minifigure voiced by Arnett (Emmy nominee, 30 Rock), with whom she shares a history.
Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (21 Jump Street, Golden Globe nominee for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs) are directing from their original screenplay, story by Dan Hageman, Kevin Hageman, Lord and Miller, based on Lego construction toys. The film will incorporate some of the most popular Lego figures while introducing several new characters, inviting fans who have enjoyed the brand's innovative toys and hugely popular video games for generations to experience their visually unique Lego world as never seen before.
The film will be produced by Dan Lin (Sherlock Holmes, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows) and Roy Lee (The Departed, How to Train Your Dragon). It will be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, and in select territories by Village Roadshow Pictures.
Burrell, Charles hired to voice Peabody & Sherman
"Modern Family" star Ty Burrell is the new voice of Mr. Peabody in DreamWorks Animation's upcoming feature film Mr. Peabody & Sherman, replacing Robert Downey Jr.
Meanwhile, Max Charles, who portrays young Peter Parker in The Amazing Spider-Man, will be Sherman in the movie, based on Jay Ward's classic cartoon segment Peabody's Improbable History.
Like all of DWA's other feature films, this wll be a 3D release. It's slated to come out on March 14, 2014.
As in the 1959-63 series, Mr. Peabody is a dog who's the world's smartest person. Peabody has a "pet" boy, Sherman.
In the movie, the duo discover that someone has used their time-traveling machine without permission. Historical events change uncontrollably to disastrous and comical results. The dog and his boy must return things to normal before the space-time continuum is destroyed.
"The brilliantly comedic and paternal sensibilities of Ty Burrell make him ideal for the role of the beloved Mr. Peabody, and we are thrilled that he will join Max Charles as the leads of Mr. Peabody and Sherman,'" said DWA chief creative officer Bill Damaschke.
Rob Minkoff (The Lion King) is directing from a script by Craig Wright ("Six Feet Under"). Alex Schwartz, DWA's former head of development, will produce with Denise Cascino (Shrek The Third). Jason Clark (Stuart Little) will join Bullwinkle Studios' Tiffany Ward and Classic Media's Eric Ellenbogen as executive producers.
Ryan Reynolds leads race for DreamWorks' "Turbo"
Ryan Reynolds will lead an all-star cast including Paul Giamatti, Michael Pena, Luis Guzman, Bill Hader, Richard Jenkins, Ken Jeong, Michelle Rodriguez, Maya Rudolph, Ben Schwartz, Kurtwood Smith, Snoop Dogg and Samuel L. Jackson in DreamWorks Animation SKG's upcoming original film Turbo, the company announced Friday.
Turbo tells the story of an ordinary garden snail with dreams of racing greatness. The film is scheduled to come to the big screen on July 19, 2013.
"Ryan Reynolds' infectious enthusiasm and humor will bring life to the lead role of Turbo and set the tone for this amazing roster of all-star voice talent," said DreamWorks Animation chief creative officer Bill Damaschke. "This high-octane journey will take audiences on the race of their lives and completely re-define the traditional notion of moving at a snail's pace!"
David Soren (Merry Madagascar), a DWA veteran as a story artist, voice actor and director, is set to direct the film based on his own original concept. Soren is co-writing the script with Robert Siegel (The Wrestler) and Darren Lemke (Shrek Forever After). Lisa Stewart (Monsters vs. Aliens, Almost Famous) is producing with Susan Rogers serving as co-producer.
Turbo is a snail who dreams of being the greatest racer in the world, just like his hero, five-time Indianapolis 500 champ Guy Gagne. His obsession with speed and all things fast has made him an oddity and outsider in the slow and cautious snail community, and a constant embarrassment to his careful older brother Chet.
Turbo desperately wishes he could escape the slow-paced life he's living. As luck would have it, he gets that chance one fateful day after a freak accident when he suddenly finds himself vested with the power of incredible speed. He embarks on an extraordinary journey to achieve the impossible: racing against the best that IndyCar has to offer. Turbo is the ultimate underdog who achieves the impossible by refusing to let his limitations get in the way of his dreams.
DreamWorks Animation's Turbo is a snail who dreams of being the greatest racer in the world.
Miley Cyrus checking out of "Hotel Transylvania"
Both Gomez and Cyrus are former Disney stars.
Sony Pictures Animation, the production studio, would not comment on why Cyrus was leaving the film. Her representative did not immediately return a request for comment. An model of the Mavis character is available on our Hotel Transylvania picture page.
It was revealed last November that Cyrus had joined the voice cast.
In Hotel Transylvania, Dracula (voiced by Sandler) operates a five-stake resort where monsters and their families can live it up, free from meddling from the human world. Overprotective of his daughter, Dracula fabricates tales of elaborate dangers to dissuade her adventurous spirit.
Also starring are Saturday Night Live's Andy Samberg, Cee Lo Green (as Murray the Mummy) and Kevin James (as Frankenstein). The movie is scheduled for release September 21.
Other cast members include Fran Drescher (The Bride of Frankenstein), David Spade (The Invisible Man), David Koechner (Quasimodo), and Steve Buscemi and Molly Shannon as a pair of werewolves.
Genndy Tartakovsky (Star Wars: Clone Wars) is the movie's director.
Hudson, Gad, Hader star in "Me & My Shadow" cast
Kate Hudson will make her animation debut as a member of the voice cast of DreamWorks Animation fantasy feature film Me and My Shadow.
Also signed are The Book of Mormon star Josh Gad and Saturday Night Live's Bill Hader. The studio has scheduled a November 13, 2013 release date.
Alessandro Carloni will make his directorial debut with the movie, which is being produced by Melissa Cobb (Kung Fu Panda 2). Carloni was head of story on DWA's Oscar-nominated How To Train Your Dragon (2010).
In the movie, Hader portrays Stan, an extremely frustrated shadow who yearns for a dynamic life, but happens to be stuck with timid Stanley Grubb (Gad), the world's most boring human. Finally pushed to the brink, Shadow Stan breaks the singular rule of the Shadow World – "They lead, we follow" – and takes control of Stanley!
Hudson will voice Grubb's possible love interest in the real world.
Conceived in-house as an original film, the movie will combine CG and traditional animation (the shadow world is hand-drawn; the human world is CG).
Tom J. Astle and Matt Ember are writing the story based on an original draft from Steve Bencich and Ron J. Friedman. Jeff Hermann (Kung Fu Panda 2) is the co-producer.
Mark Dindal (2000's The Emperor's New Groove) was previously set as the director.
Gad is doing voice work in Ice Age: Continental Drift, set for release July 12. Hader has been a voice actor in the 2009 animated feature films Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballsand Ice Age: Dawn Of The Dinosaurs.
Chastain makes animation debut in "Madagascar 3″
Jessica Chastain, gaining critical attention for her work on the movie The Help, will make her animation debut in Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted, DreamWorks Animation announced Friday.
Chastain, also of Tree of Life, will voice a new character, Gia the jaguar.
Also joining the film's voice cast are Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston (also of Malcolm in the Middle) and comedian Martin Short (The Martin Short Show, Saturday Night Live). Cranston will voice a Siberian tiger, while Short will portray Stefano the sea lion.
Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, David Schwimmer, Jada Pinkett Smith and Sacha Baron Cohen will repeat their animal portrayals. Frances McDormand was previously announced as a cast member.
Directed by Eric Darnell and Conrad Vernon, the threequel is scheduled for release June 8.
"Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Gloria the Hippo and Melman the Giraffe are still fighting to get home to their beloved Big Apple, and of course, King Julien, Maurice and the Penguins are all along for the comedic adventure," Friday's announcement said. "Their journey takes them through Europe, where they find the perfect cover: a traveling circus, which they reinvent — Madagascar-style."
The Madagascar franchise has grossed over $1.1 billion at the worldwide box office.
Eddie Murphy to voice "Hong Kong Phooey" in movie
Eddie Murphy will voice the animated lead character in Alcon Entertainment's live-action/animated big-screen Hong Kong Phooey, an adaptation of the 1970s Hanna-Barbera animated TV series Hong Kong Phooey, Alcon co-founders and co-CEOs Broderick Johnson and Andrew Kosove announced Wednesday.
In addition to voicing the character of Donkey in the box-office hit Shrek franchise, Murphy was also the voice of Mushu the Dragon in the successful animated epic Mulan. Murphy will next be seen in the comedies Tower Heist (co-starring Ben Stiller) from Universal Studios and A Thousand Words from DreamWorks.
Alex Zamm (Dr. Dolittle: Million Dollar Mutts, Tooth Fairy 2) will direct. Kosove and Johnson will produce with Jay Stern and Brett Ratner. Steven P. Wegner will executive produce.
Said Johnson and Kosove: "We could not be happier that Eddie Murphy will star as Phooey. There is no overstating his contributions to cinema, and to such enduring stars of family entertainments such as Shrek and Dr. Doolittle. We look forward to watching him reimagine yet another classic character."
Based on the cult classic series, a mild-mannered dog named Penry (Murphy) stumbles into a mystic ceremony and is accidentally granted mystic powers, including the ability to walk, talk and do kung fu. Under the tutelage of his kung fu master, Penry dons a costume and becomes Hong Kong Phooey, and, with the help of his trusting sidekick Spot the cat, cleans up a rogues' gallery of wacky criminals.
Comedian-singer Scatman Crothers voiced Penry/Hong Kong Phooey in the original series.
"Ice Age: Continental Drift" voice cast announced
Twentieth Century Fox Animation and Blue Sky Studios announced Monday the voice cast for Ice Age: Continental Drift, the fourth entry in Blue Sky's blockbuster franchise, which has grossed over $4 billion in all media.
Fox will release the animated comedy in 3D on July 13, 2012.
Ray Romano is back as Manny, the woolly mammoth and the herd's "Big Daddy," Queen Latifah returns as Ellie — Manny's significant other, Denis Leary rejoins the herd as the saber-toothed tiger Diego, John Leguizamo is at it again as terminally goofy sloth Sid, and Seann William Scott and Josh Peck reprise possums Crash and Eddie.
Joining the ever-growing Ice Age family for Continental Drift is a stellar lineup, including Jeremy Renner, an Academy Award nominee for The Hurt Locker and The Town (and whose upcoming films include Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol and The Bourne Legacy), who portrays Gutt, a self-styled master of the high seas who's determined to make Manny, Sid and Diego part of his crew; Wanda Sykes as Sid's stowaway Granny, who causes all sorts of problems for our heroes; Aziz Ansari as Squint, a prehistoric rabbit who fancies himself a tough guy; actress-pop music star Keke Palmer as Peaches, Manny and Ellie's headstrong teenage daughter; hip hop sensation Drake as Ethan, a handsome young woolly mammoth who has his eye on Peaches; and Jennifer Lopez as Shira, a sabre-toothed tigress who melts Diego's heart.
Also taking on starring roles are Heather Morris, Joy Behar, Nicki Minaj, Josh Gad, Alan Tudyk, Nick Frost, Kunal Nayyar, Alain Chabat and JB Smoove.
Also returning is Scrat (again voiced by Chris Wedge), who in the first Ice Age (2002) emerged as a movie icon. In Ice Age: Continental Drift, Scrat's nutty pursuit of the cursed acorn, which he's been after since the dawn of time, has world-changing consequences — a continental cataclysm that triggers the greatest adventure of all for Manny, Diego and Sid. In the wake of these earth-shattering upheavals, Sid reunites with his long-lost family, and the gang encounters a ragtag menagerie of colorful new characters determined to stop them from returning home.
Ice Age: Continental Drift is directed by Steve Martino and Michael Thurmeier, and produced by Lori Forte and John Donkin.

Kristi, I couldn't say for sure but, it does look suspicious. Are there still flowers on the stalk or has the scape already started to decay? In any case, guess you'll probably have to move it into quarantine with "the others". I hope it's not your Apple Blossom with the "fancy stigma" that caused such an uproar last year....;-) Donna |
No...this is a new AB...bought in a bag from HD....! I had forgotten about THAT "uproar". There have been so many...my Queen of Hearts that "wasn't", etc. Cold front moving through today. Temps have dropped nearly 10 degrees in last hour. I "inventoried" my GH yesterday, noting the location (by shelf number) of each hybrid. Didn't really take that long and will help me keep tabs on the more "precious" ones. Also put flags (on bamboo skewers) on the ones that looked like they need to have a little more attention this winter. Great fun. But...I am definitely outgrowing this little 6x6 GH. ARG! Looks like 2012 is the year for the real deal! k |
Well, I hope you DO get the real deal in 2012! Then you can keep the one you use now for the quarantine station..I'm sure we'll all be adding to "that" collection this year. Of the 23 bulbs that I acquired this season,(so far) I don't doubt that a few of them will show the signs of virus...I don't worry so much about mislabels anymore though... I just can't believe the size of some of the buds that are popping out of some of these new super-sized bulbs this year..my newly purchased Nymph has a bud that is 1 +3/4'wide and some others look to be just as large!! I still think they did something very different this year with the cultivation of these bulbs..now if they are healthy, what a year this will be!!! Donna |
I love Nymph. I think I have Sweet, Red, Pink, and "normal". I think I saw a "White Nymph" without the red lines of the regular Nymph. That is still one of my favorite photos...it looks like a wedding bouquet! All 4 blooms opened at once. It was PERFECTION! :-) |

I am starting a *very small* plant business.
I am making up my business plan for a large grant, and would like to find the same kind of business to make comparisons and use as an example. Basically I will have a 12x16' greenhouse on my home property, and will grow house and patio plants to sell at Farmer's Markets, and hopefully, on the Internet. It will remain fairly small due to disability and size constraints in the middle of town. Eventually I'd like to move to the country and put in a commercial greenhouse, but that is some years down the road. thanks,
Follow-Up Postings:
Can you please explain yourself a little more. I'm not getting what you are asking for...Large grant = small business? |
If your looking for a similar business to compare to wouldn't you be better off posting on a forum that doesn't deal with horticulture? Still confused... |
- Posted by plant.babies Zone 8-9 .... maybe(gw:plant.babies) onThu, Jul 13, 06 at 17:35
The grant is fairly large, probably because it is a disability grant. Yes, my need is to find another *small* home-based business -- doing about 12, 000.00-15, 000.00 a year. I thought this was the "professional gardener" forum, and I have seen many small nursery owners or landscapers posting on this forum, so .... I thought this would be a good place to find someone with a business similar to mine. ain't it? |
Sorry miss-read same as similar... But you haven't asked any questions. What are you wanting to know? |

How Do I Cancel My Food Stamps?
How do I cancel food stamps?
I think I technically be committing food stamp frauds. Do I need to give reasons to cancel food stamps?
Tell them you no longer qualify.
What do I do about canceling food stamps?
A few months ago I was unemployed and my family qualified for food stamps. I recently got a job and know that I make too much to continue to be qualified. I have sent them emails and tried calling to cancel the benefits. They have since kept putting monies on the EBT card and it says it is still "active" on the website. What measures should I take to get this resolved? Also, I live in Utah if that matters to anyone.
They can not lower your food stamps until you are REQUIRED to report new income. So if you are quarterly reporting they will not stop your food stamps until your quarter ends. This gives you a couple of months to get back on your feet.
Can i put in for food stamps in one state when i'm receiving them in another state?
I'm moving in a few days to Indiana, but I'm receiving food stamps in Texas right now. Can I put in for food stamps in Indiana before I move and cancel my food stamps here in Texas? Also, how would I go about the whole changing? Do i call and tell the texas office that i went through that i've moved so to cancel it? or how does this all work? @BB, please be serious. cause this was a serious question. Thanks!
From the TX website:
Call your local office before you leave Texas. Take your Lone Star card with you.
If you receive food stamp benefits, use your Lone Star card at stores that accept food stamps in other states. If it does not work, call the Lone Star Help Desk at 1-800-777-7EBT (1-800-777-7328).*
How can you get food stamps in California?
Where would you go to get food stamps? Or who could you ask? My friend is trying to get food stamps but we don't know who or where to ask. Thanks!
Here is the online website to see if you qualify. The program is now called SNAP everywhere and they no longer have paper food stamps. It is electronic using an EBT card you swipe at the checkstand.
What are food stamps?
I've heard references to food stamps but we don't have anything of that nature here in Canada. Can anyone explain what they are? Who uses them and why? Thanks.
Food Stamps are government issued funds that are used for the purpose of buying food. They are given to low-income families through the state's Department of Social Services (welfare). The amount issued is determined by the number of people in the household and their income. At one time they were in paper form, but now they are deposited onto a benefit card, similar to a credit card, along with any cash assistance the family may be receiving. Recipients are not supposed to use Food Stamps to buy anything other than food, but a lot of non-department stores not only allow this, they also allow people to cash in their stamps; giving them less money than the amount of Stamps that were taken.

If we had superpowers, we'd be the Tipsy Crusader, able to create new liquor flavors at the blink of an eye.
Such a hero staggers among us.
Thirsty for a tequila that doesn't have to be hidden in a syrupy sweet margarita mix or mouthfuls of lime and salt, Marion Skinner and Shinobi Muhammad set out to change the way people think of the ubiquitous Mexican spirit.
The result, Espada Ultra Premium Tequila, is just hitting restaurants, bars and liquor stores this week, including Hacienda on Henderson and Goody Goody Liquor.
After a little investigating, we discovered that this 100% agave tequila with a hint of lemon first became available in the Dallas market and is currently expanding to more locations.
That's right: Texas' own tequila.
Espada has the same mellow smoothness of tequilas that require months (even years) of aging, but achieves this effect through a much faster, patented purification process.
That's doubly right: techno-supercharged tequila.
The result is an ultra-smooth drink you'll want to sip and savor, though we're pretty sure you could be convinced to do a body shot or two if someone insists.
Espada Ultra Premium Tequila
Price: $40 for 750 ml
In stores: Centennial; Goody Goody; Sigel's
At restaurants: Wild Salsa; Hacienda on Henderson; Yucatan Taco Stand
At bars and nightclubs: Champps; Ghost Bar; Shooters

SCOTUS Denies Appeal Of Texas Execution
Thursday, April 3, 2014
(Washington, DC) -- The U.S. Supreme Court is denying an appeal by a Texas man hoping to avoid execution. Justice Antonin Scalia turned down a request this evening by Tommy Sells to stop his execution because he didn't know where the drugs were from. Scalia upheld a similar ruling the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals made last night. Sells is going to be executed tonight for killing a young girl in 1999.

Sony Cyber-shot QX10 (£165)
Hipster-geek doesn't want a normal camera, despite some of them being quite cool, and some of them being really good at taking pictures.

More after the break...
Yr T-shirt (from £60 (Liberty), from £28 (Topman))
Even if you were to go all the way to London's Spitalfields Market and buy from a one-time stall-holder who had travelled from Tibet with his bag of five hand-made T-shirts, someone in your Shoreditch local would be wearing the same one. Yr Store is a new idea, letting you customise and print your own T-shirts from machines popping up in London retailers such as Liberty and Topman.

Movie Review By Moira Macdonald
"The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement," a movie that goes on for approximately as long as Queen Victoria's reign, is not intended to appeal to a wide audience and indeed, it won't. It's aimed at those for whom "cute" is the highest form of praise, and for whom a movie is not complete unless it features pretty dresses, squeaky-clean romance and a cat wearing a tiara. In other words, this is a pink movie, and if you're not a girl, off you go there's not much for you here. Directed by Garry Marshall, the movie is undeniably cute. But it's also often a gooey mess, with a plot that manages to be both wearisome and preposterous (to grown-ups, that is). Nonetheless, there's plenty that girls, and others, can learn from it. Here are just a few of the philosophies it (endlessly) offers: The Guy With the Best Hair Always Wins. The film's plot, though it takes a while to sort out, is basically a love triangle. Princess Mia (Anne Hathaway), now ensconced in Genovia at the palace of her grandmother Clarisse (Julie Andrews), finds that she must marry to succeed to the throne. An engagement with an English nobleman named Andrew (Callum Blue) is hastily arranged, and a bitter enmity between Mia and Sir Nicholas (Chris Pine) develops which means, in girl code, that she thinks he's kind of cute, too. Andrew is nice, but his hair is flat and mousy; Nicholas, on the other hand, has mastered the use of styling products and sports a 'do with gravity-defying volume at the roots. Anyone care to guess who the winner might be?
It's All About the Outfit. Mia's new closet, beautifully stocked with frocks, jewels and fetching little accessories, gets a more dramatic introduction and, in fact, more screen time than many of the supporting characters. (Not that I minded; I was too busy coveting it to care. Sometimes girls grow up to be movie critics a line of work that, alas, offers fewer material rewards than princess-hood.)
"PD2" doesn't exactly rock (except for that cat in the tiara, who shows Andrews-like poise), but its message is a pleasant one, and it should keep girls happy until the next pink movie comes along.

Can theatre change the world for the better? I think it can and should. Last week at two very different conferences I experienced a provocation of this statement and proof of it.
At the Critics Circle Centenary Conference the circle's oldest enfant terrible Nicholas de Jongh cited how Kenneth Tynan helped abolish censorship through his 'ridicule, force and mockery'. In typically provocative form, he then accused small theatres of turning their back on satire. Why wasn't Tynan's tactic being used in theatre today? Satire, he argued, was the only way to effect real political change and it was beholden on us to do better.
As someone who spends a lot of time in small theatres I have to say I agree with him – cutting edge satire has been the province of TV for a long time now. While that's no bad thing – with TV viewing figures far outstripping theatre sizes – I think we're missing a trick by not offering it live on a regular basis.
Of course we have a wealth of political work on the fringe from new writing to performance art. The Big Idea discussions going on at the Royal Court are a great example of how theatres are engendering tangible change. But they're not funny – nor do they claim to be – and nothing really effects our attitudes to those in power more than ridicule.
NewsRevue at the Canal Cafe is perhaps the closest thing we've got but its targets are more populist than political. It's not using it's power to effect societal change and – in the face of sounding incredibly pompous – it should be.
On the other end of spectrum theatrical game makers Coney are showing how theatre can make you reassess the way you live. Their immersive playful event, FuturePlay – taking place last weekend at Futurefest, a conference on future societies – is an interactive performance looking at our roles in society. People within a community sign up to FuturePlay to become agents, and get tasked to do good things to help others in the community, as a kind of "game-ified altruism".
Three teams offer you a choice of how you want to play, ranging from mischievous rule breakers to thoughtful strategists. Throughout you are asked to asses what kind of player you are and what kind you want to be.
It's a lot more competitive and a lot less touchy feely than it sounds and it begins to change the way you think about how you act in society, what you want from your community and what you're prepared to do for other people. Coney call it an 'everyday playful revolution' and it's certainly begun shaking things up in me. It's making me look at the world differently and begin to imagine how the things within it can be different.
Coney's next show Early Days (of a Better Nation) again promises to encourage us to imagine a better world – it's an ambition I wish more in the industry were as open about because theatre can change the world. Let's get out there and make it happen.
