For those who prefer upfront costs to running costs, Jainschigg estimates there are between 50 and 100 systems for sale, most of which work with your personal computer. Though most are priced well over $1,000, with many falling in the $5,000-to-$25,000 range, a handful of systems with price tags of $500 or less are available to meet the needs of small companies with limited resources.
Most voice-mail systems offer a variety of useful options that help make your company seem bigger and more professional. If you spend a lot of time away from your office, you'll want a system with pager notification. This feature beeps your pager or forwards your calls to another phone of your choice whenever a message comes in.
Another useful feature is the capability for multiple mailboxes. Systems with this feature can be programmed to ask callers to press a certain number, depending on the reason for their call. For instance, callers can be instructed to press "1" for sales, "2" for billing or "3" for technical support. Not only does this make your company seem larger, but it also helps you sort your messages by priority and type. If your business emphasizes phone sales, be sure to look for a system with ample recording time.
When choosing a voice-mail system, advises Jainschigg, it's important to get one that's not only compatible with your phone system, but one that can be integrated with it as well. If your systems aren't integrated, voice mail could unwittingly send a call to a busy extension, allowing the call to be "dropped on the floor"--the caller will get disconnected rather than reaching your voice mail.
Telephony Experts handles such problems by offering to preprogram its product, the Small Business Assistant, with settings designed to integrate its system with your existing phone system, says Shelton Glenn, a salesperson at Telephony Experts.
Setting up the Small Business Assistant also requires the installation of some hardware. "People are not always comfortable with opening up their PCs," Glenn acknowledges. For those customers, the company offers a free month of technical support, which can be used to guide the purchaser step by step through the installation process.
Your computer's operating system is another consideration in choosing a voice-mail system. Windows 95, for instance, is not designed to be mission-critical, which means it can seize up at any time. If your computer's operating system crashes, so will your voice mail system.
In order to minimize the risk of crashes, Glenn advises using one computer for nothing but your voice-mail system. If you can't afford to dedicate a computer just to voice mail, you'll be safest if you stick with typical computer uses such as word-processing and spreadsheet programs. You could run into trouble, however, when using "high-stress" programs such as page layout and graphics programs, he says.
If you envision heavy computer use and don't have the means to dedicate a separate computer to your voice-mail system, consider buying a stand-alone system. The most affordable stand-alone system on the market is Tina, from Datacom International in Telford, Pennsylvania.
Tina is a box, about the size of a TV remote control, that has a jack to plug into your phone, and both a jack and an electrical plug to connect to the wall.
Tina's features are comparable to those of any computer-based voice-mail system. If you're swamped with paperwork and don't want to take calls, for instance, you can program Tina to route callers to voice mail without ringing your phone. If you're waiting for an important call, you can program the machine to ring your phone only for that call. You can also program it to forward calls to a cellular phone, a pager or a fax machine.
"Some of these little stand-alone boxes are awesome," says Jainschigg. But before you choose a stand-alone system, be sure your phone system has the capability to use all its features. Tina, for example, will work with any phone system, but you must have caller ID and three-way calling in order to take advantage of all its features.
Whether you're looking for voice-mail software or a stand-alone system, the place to shop is a specialized retail store that sells only telecommunications equipment, computers and other business equipment. Another option is to order directly from the manufacturers.
Whatever you buy, consider your business's future needs. If you buy a system designed to handle two phone lines, you may need to buy another system when your company grows and you need to add phone lines down the road. "It wouldn't be practical to run a one- or two-line system with 10 people in your office," Jainschigg says.
Whatever type of voice mail you opt for, you can rest assured that you won't be missing important calls. And when you're in business, every call is an important call.

The Chesterfield County Planning Commission will be deciding on three diverse cases in the Dale and Bermuda Districts this month. On November 15, the commission will delve into cash proffers, a beg for forgiveness over permission and a property that may need to be increased before it can be built on.
As the planning commission waits for definitive direction on cash proffers, the fourth case in as many months, Chesterfield Business Partners LLC and Kingsland Towncenter LLC are pursuing relief on proffers on the residential portion of its development on Iron Bridge Road and on both sides of Kingland Glen Drive. The existing zoning limits development to a maximum of 740 dwelling units.
Holiday Signs is seeking permission to improve and expand the size of the Friendly's ice cream and restaurant sign. During a recent storm the sign was damaged and then replaced. Planning indicates the new sign exceeds size requirements. The property owners have illegally refaced the sign and are now seeking approval for the sign to remain.
Two deferrals (postponements) requested by the Chesterfield County Planning Commission on since June has Cambridge Construction in the batter's box again at the commission's November 15 meeting. Cambridge has proposed changing the zoning on a shallow piece of land north of Wawa on Iron Bridge Road to permit the construction of a retail/office complex.
Chesterfield's planning staff has indicated that while the proposed zoning fits the new comprehensive plan vision passed last month by the Board of Supervisors, the property does not have enough depth to accommodate the improvements.
The planning commission considers cases once a month at the public meeting room in the county complex at 10001 Iron Bridge Road.

WASHINGTON, August 26, 2013 — Miley Cyrus performed at the Video Music Awards last night. It wasn't pretty.
Today millions of Americans are desperate to erase the images of Miley Cyrus singing and doing a lap dance for singer Robin Thicke, a man almost old enough to be her father. The song they performed, "Blurred Lines," has been criticized for its lyrics that suggest that there is a blurred line when a woman says no, but really means yes:
I hate these blurred lines
I know you want it
I know you want it
I know you want it
But you're a good girl
The way you grab me
Must wanna get nasty
Go ahead, get at me.
They should be lining up at lawyers' offices today to sue MTV for intentionally inflicting emotional distress and cruel and unusual punishment.
While millions of us were appalled by what Miley Cyrus and Lady Gaga did on MTV last night, the executives are laughing all the way to the bank. After all, millions are talking about it today.
Why do conservatives support the Hollywood-liberal political establishment at all when they can simply turn the television off?
SEE RELATED: Don't imitate Miley Cyrus and sing about doing drugs
Hollywood celebrities and power players all have one thing in common: They all support Barack Obama and the Democrats. They contribute big bucks to the Democrats. Really big bucks.
Hiam Saban is famous for creating the children's show, Power Rangers. He has given millions to Democrats over the last twenty years. He got those dollars as a result of people watching his shows.
Why do conservatives, and their children, watch those shows?
In 1961, Newton Minnow called television a "vast wasteland." Fifty years later, it has not changed much.
Every so often, conservatives call for a boycott of liberal shows or channels. These boycotts never work. Why do we not simply change our behavior and quit watching TV at all?
Conservatives could do better things with their time than support liberal organizations. How much better would America be if conservatives simply unplugged from cable and satellite TV? They could spend more time on important things, like saving the country, instead of watching the latest episode of "House of Cards."
Instead of enriching liberals, conservatives could spend time on personal fitness so they can avoid the Obamacare death panels which will be coming.
Economists tell us that the true cost of something is what they call "opportunity costs." That is, the real cost of an item is not what you pay for it, but what you give up in order to have it.
The opportunity costs of watching TV controlled by liberals is simply too great. Just turn it off.
And think of the money you will save on the eye-bleach when you don't see Miley Cyrus twerking on stage, her "costume" leaving nothing to the imagination.
That is worth the cost alone of turning the TV off.

We have gathered a few days ago in a cafe, sat and talked and decided to do few blogs. What came out of it you can see from the following links:
If you wandered to this page and, at some point in time, this topic will be actual for you - whether you're male or female, try think and sincerely answer on a complex question: "How I came to betrayal?".
An article about the kinds of facial massage. About facial massage you can learn here.
Careful and correct care for the scalp can slow the aging process. One way to keep the skin in tonus - facial massage. It can be performed on all areas of the head.
Described below massage is done with all degrees of scoliosis. Its therapeutic properties help to correct curvature of the spine, get normalize of tone and strengthen muscles, improve circulation, relieve fatigue and reduce pain.
Sex in India.
Necessity is the mother of invention. For India, this proverb is justified for one hundred percent. This is country in which more than half the population lives below the poverty line. And in spite of it here was created The Kama Sutra.
Kama Sutra, has long been associated with an ancient and mysterious world of the East. Traveler that arrives to India, first of all hopes to find enlightenment - as a philosophical as well as the art of love comfort. And what did he see in India? The army of three-wheeled rickshaws, a crowd of Hindus, hanging on the railings of buses and silk saris that from head to toe covering of women. He asks them where the origins of Kama Sutra. "Far away, angrezi (foreigner - Hindi), far away ..." answered locals.
Indian art of love is still closed to the Western world, that desirous to reach the incredible bliss. It's no secret that sex education for the locals hold seven locks, sex before marriage is strictly forbidden, and most of the weddings is predetermined by their parents. The only sources of knowledge about sex for young girls it's their mothers and older sisters. Modest and chaste outside, in alcoves bedrooms wifes becomes seductive mistresses and honed their skills over the years.
No need to travel the seven seas, to learn the skill of sexual pleasures, - you need more time to spend at the bedroom and opening new horizons for the violent fantasies and role-playing games.
Best video about massage you can find on Hetaera.net!


text: No specific incidents at the park are coming to mind now, but I know for sure I have MANY times in everyday life. Most recently, Belle said "How about that Mr. Doubting Mustafa!" to me in public. Yesterday, we broke out into "Prince Ali" while watching my baby sister run around after church. Last year, I did when I gave a ride home to two friends after school and had a Disney cd in my car, my Mickey dice hanging from my rear view mirror, and my Princess Minnie antenna topper - all I need is the license plate cover that has the Disney Princesses on it and says something about "looking for Prince Charming" - well, I guess that wouldn't be too good of an idea now that my mom is driving my car since her's is broken .

We'd say that at this point there's little left to write about notorious Pittsburgh sleazeball Matt Cooke, but we're sure a few of you will find some colourful adjectives that we can't use here.
I'll direct you to our handy and easy to use head shot template developed Friday afternoon. You can fill in the blanks and feel like a real writer! Yeah, we're sitting on a damn gold mine here.
Fire away on Cooke's latest, an elbow to the head of Rangers defenceman Ryan McDonagh. Cooke received a five minute major and a game misconduct, and will no doubt get yet another chance to spin Colin Campbell's favourite toy, the Wheel of Justice.
It was just over a month ago that Cooke had his last demonstration of idiocy when he drove Blue Jackets defenceman Fedor Tyutin into the boards from behind, which resulted in a four-game suspension. Only Cooke knows exactly what he was trying to accomplish by throwing an elbow into the face of McDonagh at the last second. He's earned his reputation through ill-advised decisions like this one, but even the NHL's most legendary cheap shot artists have their defenders, as we discovered with Sean Avery earlier this week.
Such a blatant lack of common sense is pretty tough to defend though, especially in a week when two players were suspended and one fined, and two of those incidents focused on flying elbows.

'Texas Chainsaw 3D' loving homage to 1974 original
By Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter January 9, 2013 2:54PM
DIRECTOR: John Luessenhop
STARS: Alexandra Daddario, Tania Raymonde and Scott Eastwood
GENRE: Horror, Mystery, Thriller
RATED: R for strong grisly violence and language throughout
RUNNING TIME: 1 hour and
32 minutes

Updated: February 12, 2013 2:06PM
Watching "Texas Chainsaw 3D," the latest screen incarnation of the iconic chain saw-wielding maniac Leatherface, the mind fairly reels.
This purported direct sequel to Tobe Hooper's 1974 horror classic cheerfully ignores that director's own 1986 follow-up, the 2003 remake, the 2006 prequel and even the film's basic time line.
"Texas Chainsaw 3D" scores points for sheer brazenness.
But aside from its being an obviously loving homage to the original — even including 3-D-enhanced clips from "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" in the opening credits — there isn't much to recommend this installment.
The main point of the new film's originality is omitting the word "Massacre" from the title.
The opening sequence takes place directly after the final scene of Hooper's film, depicting a Waco-like encounter in which the house containing Leatherface and his cannibalistic family burns to the ground with all its occupants presumably dead.
That is except for a baby, who is promptly adopted and, as we soon see, grows up in Oklahoma to be the beautiful Heather Miller (Alexandra Daddario).
Cut to roughly 20 years later, when Heather learns of her origins after being left a Texas mansion by her late grandmother.
Heather and her friends promptly head off in a van to check out her inheritance which, unbeknownst to them, is still the home of the hulking Leatherface (Dan Yeager).
The film's first half follows conventional horror movie tropes as the heroine and her hottie companions — boyfriend Ryan (rapper Tremaine "Trey Songz" Neverson), best friend Nikki (Tania Raymonde), her new crush Kenny (Keram Malicki-Sanchez) and a hunky hitchhiker (Scott Eastwood) — are pursued by the chain saw-wielding inhabitant with predictably lethal results.
But that's not before all of them bare as much skin as possible.
Things take a somewhat more complex turn later on when Heather finds herself in an unlikely alliance with her deranged relative against the town's corrupt mayor (Paul Rae) and his minions.
Leatherface is even given a rather sympathetic treatment, depicted as being something of a misunderstood, overgrown child whose propensity for tearing off his victims' faces is but an extreme example of adolescent rebellion.
That the film obviously takes place in the present day — a key sequence involves a camera phone — is something of a puzzler since that would make Heather nearly 40 years old.
That is something that the tightly toned, midriff-baring Daddario is clearly not. But hey, what's a couple of decades more or less?
Director John Luessenhop ("Takers") takes advantage of the 3-D by shoving blood spurts and the occasional chain saw directly into viewers' faces, but otherwise it has little impact other than to goose the box office with those hefty surcharges.
Unlike the restrained 1974 film that cleverly relied mainly on suggestion, this version piles on the graphic, often computer-generated imagery-enhanced gore.
Devoted fans of the original will be gratified by the cameos from several of that film's cast members including original Leatherface Gunnar Hansen, although the cameos are mostly of the blink and you'll miss them variety.

"I didn't ever really want that much, but I thought I deserved more than this."
Deserved is a funny word, though. I doubt if any of us deserve anything that happens to us like that. The world does not give us any deserving reward or punishment. What we get is as much a matter of chance as it is of anything else.
Being good or being bad doesn't really seem to matter in that sense. Sometimes the baddies get what makes some sort of justice look good and sometimes they don't.
It is as much a matter of chance as anything else. There are no great rewards for any of us, not any more. There is no-one, no god-like entity, out there dispensing justice. There is no-one out there to reward the good and punish the bad.

============================ No Bureau QSLs, sorry.Paper QSLs go to F4BHW.LoTW is good.============================ The antenna is a V-Dipole, a handmade. All the measuring, cutting and installing processes are DIY. A one man job, that one man is yours trully. The antenna bracket and the roof tower are made by someone else, because he has the tools for it. I just gave him the blueprint. Well, to be honest if I have the tools I would still give it to someone else to do it because welding isn't really my thing. That huge thing hanging on the bracket is a choke balun made of 7 turns of RG-8 coax on a 6" former. Some folks call it ugly balun, but believe me it works great. The "nickname" conceals it's FB performance. I could place it nice and snug up there with more firm grip instead of using an old leather belt to hang it with. Then I thought it should retain its ugliness, so, I don't know, whatever. These show that "sometimes" I have spent too much time on the radio. This is my shack. The radios are: IC-718, VX-1700, & FT-60. All with standard microphones. The iambic key paddle is MFJ-564 (a gift from W6YA). The HT is my only link to the VHF/UHF world. I use it to guide a fellow ham to get to my house. Nevertheless, they need to text me when they're within a mile radius, or even better call me on my mobile and ask for directions. I put a big speaker there because I love to listen to AM broadcasts with more music and less political news. That small tripod on top of the speaker, I have no idea what it's doing there.I was licensed in 1985, it's been a while, but never got bored with radios. I've been on and off the air, but always renew my license, buy new radios, build antennas, do some projects with soldering iron, get my hand burned a little bit, get electrocuted, get frowned upon by neighbours who are amazed by my climbing up and down the roof to fix the damn thing. That pretty much sums it up.Thanks for dropping by.Ricky, YB7XO.1503284 Last modified: 2014-12-07 18:57:23, 4137 bytes

I must admit that I am a novice when it comes to African Violets (seed starting, that is). I have many plants and I am curious if anyone here has tried to start African Violets from the seeds in the flowers.
If you have, please enlighten me. First, where do you find the little dickens? I see people selling these seeds on eBay but I have several of my own plants that I would love to try to reproduce. I know you can start the plants from a leaf cutting but I'm curious to see if they will grow for me from seed. Some other questions I have -- how long do the seeds take to germinate? Do you have to give the seeds a drying time or a cool time like in the refrigerator? I would love to get some of your thoughts. Thanks for any and all information about starting violets from seed. Happy Holidays to All,
Follow-Up Postings:
Fairly easy. Sow on top of a fine, moist but not wet, peat based mix and do not cover seeds. Germination begins in 2 weeks or so. The germinated seeds are really tiny, so be very careful of them and bottom water to prevent rot. Transplant to individual 1.5 or 2 inch pots when the rosette of leaves is about the size of a nickel. George |

Thanks, George. Do you find the seeds in the eye of the flower? They must be very tiny because I can't see them there. Do they require a drying time before planting? Happy Holidays, |
They form a seed pod about the size of a pea. Let them mature on the stalk, and you can plant them as soon as the pod dries. The seed are very tiny, and can hardly be separated from the chaff in the pod so don't even try. Crush the pod and sift its contents lightly on the mix. Try this site, Jeff is one of the best authorities on AV genetics and hybridization. George |

Respawn Entertainment, the studio founded by Call of Duty creators Jason West and Vince Zampella following their dramatic exit from Infinity Ward, will not be showing its mysterious first title at GamesCom next month, it has revealed on Twitter.
"No, no plans to attend so far," the studio told a fan asking about its possible appearance.
The Activision and Infinity Ward lawsuit reached an out-of-court settlement in May, following a bitter and public dispute that dragged on for two years.
At E3 studio co-founder Vince Zampella told CVG that the reveal of Respawn's first game will be "hopefully soon".
EA Games president Frank Gibeau previously hinted the game is a sci-fi shooter that will compete with the likes of Halo and Gears of War.

Alumni Profiles
Kevin Anderson
I was born in Heidelberg, Germany but I moved around a lot when I was young because my dad was in the military. So for all intensive purposes we can say I'm from Harvest, AL; I've been there since late middle school. I went to Sparkman High School in Harvest. At UAB I graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelors in Biomedical Engineering, with Honors in Science and Technology. I am currently in my first year of my PhD program at Cornell University, studying Biomedical Engineering. I am in the lab of Dr. Micheal King, my mentor, and my thesis project is to modify and apply a Multiparticle Adhesive Dynamics Simulation that he developed to predict the rolling and adhesion of circulating tumor microemboli on inflamed endothelium. I am trying to use the data obtained from simulations to elucidate some of the mechanisms underlying cancer metastasis and compare the behavior of circulating tumor microemboli (cancer cell aggregates) relative to circulating tumor cells (solitary cancer cells). I don't have concrete long term goals, but my broad goal is to enter industry im some position to work on drug design.
Basil Bakir
I grew up in Montgomery, AL and attended Loveless Academic Magnet Program. I left high school knowing that I was interested in mental health research and psychiatry and knew that I wanted to pursue an MD/PhD degree after graduating college. I chose to attend UAB because the opportunities the Sci Tech program offered in terms of lab experience, which I knew would be critical for developing the skills necessary to be in an MD/PhD program. STH helped me very quickly to find a lab, and by my sophomore year, I was working in a schizophrenia lab that focused on understanding the role of a neurotransmitter called glutamate in this devastating disorder. My time in lab was formative for me, as it made me certain that I wanted to pursue graduate training. Additionally, Sci Tech helped me develop contacts with faculty members who were instrumental in helping me when it came time to pursue admission to MD/PhD programs and to attend scientific conferences, including the Society for Neuroscience meeting in San Diego. I was very fortunate to be accepted to the University of Pennsylvania MD/PhD program, which is where I am now currently in my third year. During the first two years, I completed half of my medical training, where I fell in love with oncology, particularly pancreatic cancer. I currently hope to pursue a dual residency in internal medicine/psychiatry followed by an oncology fellowship so I may treat oncology patients who have comorbid psychiatric disorders. My PhD training is currently in pancreatic cancer, focusing on the role of p120, a protein that is important in cellular adhesion and seems to play a role in tumor suppression. I credit my ability to pursue these goals to the guidance and support of UAB's Sci Tech Program and the phenomenal help Dr. Tucker and my lab mentors (Dr. James Meador-Woodruff, Dr. Robert McCullumsmith, and Dr. Lars Kristiansen) gave me at UAB.
Kathleen Blair Farley
I'm from Homewood, Alabama. I went to high school at the Alabama School of Fine Arts where I specialized in Math and Science. I graduated from UAB magna cum laude with a BS in mechanical engineering. I am now a research engineer with Southern Company where I study electric transportation. I evaluate on-road and non-road vehicles (electric forklifts, cranes, all-terrain vehicles, etc), charging equipment, battery technologies, and required infrastructure. I expect to be starting grad school in the fall, also in mechanical engineering. Long term, I'd like to get one or two Master's degrees (I'd like to move into some electrical engineering work. It would be challenging, but really interesting, I think) and my PE license. I really enjoy the work I do now and see myself working with electric transportation in some facet, hopefully at Southern Company or one of its subsidiaries, for a long time.
Kelli Money
I grew up in the small town of Headland, Alabama, and graduated from Headland High School in 2005. I spent five years at UAB, majoring in Chemistry and minoring in Spanish. It was exciting to be a part of the first class of the Science and Technology Honors Program and play a role in shaping the program for future students. The program helped me to discover my own interests and define my goals. It was through the many exposures to different types and areas of research that I found my curiosity for neuroscience. My honors thesis research focused on the involvement of the effects of epigenetic changes in spatial learning and memory. By globally decreasing a specific epigenetic mechanism - DNA methylation, we saw electrophysiological changes reflective of destabilized firing of the hippocampal pyramidal cells involved in spatial learning and memory. I graduated from UAB in 2010 Magna cum laude with honors in chemistry. The Vanderbilt University School of Medicine MD/PhD program has been my home ever since. I intend to get my Ph.D. in Neuroscience and pursue a residency in Neurology. I plan to become a physician scientist at an academic medical center and hope to make significant contributions both to patient care and the field of neuroscience.
Matt Morton
I grew up in Trussville, AL and attended the Jefferson County International Baccalaureate School for high school, where I graduated in 2006. In 2010, I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Alabama at Birmingham with a Bachelors of Science in Biomedical Engineering (BS BME). I chose to attend the Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) School of Medicine in Cleveland, OH the following year. While in Cleveland, I have had the opportunity to work with Cheryl Thompson, PhD, an associate professor in the Department of Family Medicine at CWRU, to study RNA sequencing-based computational methods available for the detection of gene fusions that may be implicated in the development or progression of certain cancers. Our future work will focus on the relationship of certain RNAs to the progression of lung cancer. After medical school I will likely complete a residency in Internal Medicine and pursue a fellowship and career in Infectious Diseases, though at this time I have not yet committed to a specialty. While practicing, I hope to collaborate in clinical research aimed at developing and identifying new therapies for individuals living with chronic conditions.
Frank (Finn) Perkins IV
I am from Huntsville, AL where I graduated from Randolph School. My STH thesis was centered around the synthesis of hydroxyapatite nanorods for use in tissue engineering, specifically within a collagen matrix with the long term goal of producing a bone analog. I graduated from UAB in 2010 with University Honors in Science and Technology, Departmental Honors in Physics, and Magna Cum Laude. STH gave me the environment to pursue and experience research near a PhD level while an undergraduate. Rather than entering my research lab as a technician, I met regularly with my mentor to learn and make decisions on my research, wrote and presented a research proposal to a committee comprised of interdisciplinary PhDs, and remained responsible to that committee throughout the end of my research. I am currently a medical student at UASOM. My future interests are in Emergency and Internal Medicine.
Jose Roman
I grew up in Madison, Alabama and attended Bob Jones High School. I graduated with a bachelor's of science in biomedical engineering with honors in biomedical engineering (BSBME), honors in science and technology, and cum laude. I am currently a biomedical engineering PhD student at the Johns Hopkins University studying with a focus on neuroengineering. Specifically, I am currently collaborating between Drs. Andres Hurtado and Hai-Quan Mao on developing novel biomaterials to promote the repair of a traumatically injured spinal cord. My current long-term plans are to work in government or academia and continue my research interests in spinal cord injury research.

There are a set of rules that the SSA can apply to a claimant's case based on their age, education, work background and present functional ability to find the person disabled more quickly. These rules are called the 'GRIDs'.
There are basically four age categories that SSA considers when applying the GRIDs. 1. "Advanced age" refers to an individual age 55 or older. 2. "Closely approaching advanced age" refers to an individual between the ages of 50 and 54. Then there are two "Younger" individual categories ages 45-49 and 18-44 (3. and 4.).
There are also four basic educational categories the SSA considers as well.1. "Illiterate or unable to communicate in English". 2. "Limited or less". 3. "High school graduate or more with no additional training that would provide direct entry into the work force" and 4. "High school graduate or more with additional training that would allow for direct entry into the work force" (such as LPN certification for example).
Previous work experience is divided into three main categories:
- 1. "Unskilled or none".
- 2. "Skilled or semi-skilled work with transferable skills".
- 3. "Skilled or semi-skilled work with no transferable skills".
If, upon review of your medical records, the ALJ or SSA decides based on your physical limitations that you are reduced to a particular level of work such as Sedentary AND you have a limited education AND your past work was unskilled AND you are over 50 years of age, then you would meet the GRID rule 201.09. There are several GRID rules for various combinations but the main thing to remember is the older you are, the easier it is to be found disabled based on the GRIDs.
If you are interested in a free consultation for your Social Security Claim, give our office a call today: 1-877-526-3457. Or, tell us about your claim now.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Lynette!
Facts about Lynette
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Brown Tabby
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Lynette's Info...
I am already spayed and good with cats.
Lynette is the softest kitten you'll ever pet, and with her big eyes and cute white paws, we're surprised she hasn't been claimed already! While not as talkative as her foster sister Skye, she's just as inquisitive and friendly, and loves to sit up high on people's shoulders. Lynette would like to be adopted with Skye, or another kitten that could keep her company. Please fill out an adoption application to meet her!
Other Pets at Abbey Cat Adoptions
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Lynette, a Mississauga, Ontario Domestic Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Mississauga, Ontario, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair kitten from a breeder in Mississauga, Ontario.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Mississauga, Ontario already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Mississauga, Ontario breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Mississauga, Ontario paves the way for another one to be saved.

The 9/11 Anniversary and What Didn't Happen
By Scott Stewart | September 16, 2010
Sept. 11, 2010, the ninth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, was a day of
solemn ceremony, remembrance and reflection. It was also a time to
consider the U.S. reaction to the attack nine years ago, including the
national effort to destroy al Qaeda and other terrorist groups in order to
prevent a repeat of the 9/11 attacks. Of course, part of the U.S. reaction
to 9/11 was the decision to invade Afghanistan, and the 9/11 anniversary
also provided a time to consider how the United States is now trying to
end its Afghanistan campaign so that it can concentrate on more pressing
matters elsewhere.
The run-up to the anniversary also saw what could have been an attempted
terrorist attack in another Western country. On Sept. 10 in Denmark, a
potential bombing was averted by the apparent accidental detonation of an
improvised explosive device in a bathroom at a Copenhagen hotel. The
Danish authorities have not released many details of the incident, but it
appears that the suspect may have been intending to target the Danish
Jyllands-Posten newspaper, which has been targeted in the past because it
published cartoons featuring the Prophet Mohammed in 2005. Groups such as
al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) have tried hard to ensure that
the anger over the cartoon issue does not die down, and it apparently has
not. It is important to note that even if the perpetrator had not botched
it, the plot - at least as we understand it so far - appears to have
involved a simple attack plan and would not have resulted in a spectacular
act of terrorism. Read more

Box Office: 'Twilight' Feasts on Thanksgiving Audiences
Box Office By Jeremy Kirk on November 29, 2011 | Be the First To CommentOut of all the family movies that were marketed towards reuniting families across America this weekend, and it's the Twilight movie that came out on top once again. I can't say I'm shocked, though. Only in its second weekend, Breaking Dawn – Part 1 dropped 69.8% from three-day weekend to three-day weekend. But its take last weekend was so huge that hardly any film could compete with it, even with such a massive drop. That level of drop wasn't a shocker, either, seeing as how New Moon dropped 70% upon its release in November of 2009. As it stands, Breaking Dawn – Part 1 is still in third place among overall domestic gross for the Twilight franchise, ahead of the first film and about $80m away from either New Moon or Eclipse. With a reported budget of $110 – nearly double the cost of Eclipse, the second most expensive film in the series – you would think Summit Entertainment is thankful that the series is headed towards its end. Still, you have to look at worldwide box office, and Breaking Dawn – Part 1 is running smoothly with $488.8m overall. It's still a solid investment, and Breaking Dawn – Part 2 will only be putting more and more dollars in Summit's coffers. The Muppets had fine footing over the weekend, too, even better when you factor in their 5-day total. It's not quite the $65.2m The Muppet Movie pulled in total domestic in 1979. Of course, with inflation adjustment, The Muppet […]
Movie News After Dark: Obama Gets Ghostbusters 3 Scoop, Star Trek Tech in Your Kitchen and The Anatomy of 'The Artist'
Movie News By Neil Miller on November 28, 2011 | Be the First To CommentWhat is Movie News After Dark? It's a silly little thing. Just a thing that some people read. Nothing special, really, just the world's foremost late-night independent movie news and editorial round-up. You know, the usual. We begin tonight with a picture of President Obama and Bill Murray meeting at the Towson v. Oregon State basketball game this past weekend. I wonder if the Prez got a chance to grill him about all the recent Ghostbusters 3 rumors. We've already submitted a formal inquiry to the White House, with no response as of time of our publishing deadline.
Carey Mulligan Serenades Us in Second 'Shame' Trailer
Movie News By Nathan Adams on November 17, 2011 | Comments (1)Much ado has been made about the nudity and explicit sexual content in director Steve McQueen's upcoming drama Shame. In it, Michael Fassbender plays a compulsive sex addict whose routine of perversion is interrupted when his flighty younger sister (Carey Mulligan) comes calling and crashes at his apartment for a few weeks, and the results are both a little titillating and a little repulsive. That's understandable and everything, but the thing is, in all of the whispering and hullaballoo about wieners and boobs, I haven't seen much reported about the fact that Mulligan shows off some of her talent for singing in this film. Which is a shame (pun acknowledged), because not only is she pretty good, but the scene where she performs "New York, New York" kind of becomes a huge moment in the film. Sorry to disappoint the pervs out there, but Shame isn't all about sex stuff. So, while I have enjoyed the marketing for this film so far, this second full-length trailer played to me like a breath of fresh air. We get a lot of the same images from the first trailer, but this time they take on a whole other tone because Mulligan's singing is playing over them. And then, once we've run through the already familiar images, the trailer ends with a scene of Mulligan finishing her performance, and her and Fassbender sharing a look. What's really going through the heads of these two basketcases? You'll have to check out the movie to […]
Movie News After Dark: Brian Grazer Steps In, Abe Lincoln Kills Zombies and Donald Glover Interviews Childish Gambino
Movie News By Neil Miller on November 9, 2011 | Comments (2)What is Movie News After Dark? It's a nightly movie news column that isn't holding out hope that it will be chosen to host the 84th Academy Awards. It has never had a good working relationship with Brian Grazer. Earlier today the entire film world was talking about Brett Ratner's departure as producer of the Oscars because of a whole bunch of controversy over some comments he made that offended fans of rehearsals. Everyone wanted him out, and they got it. The also got the bonus of Eddie Murphy jumping ship as host, two-for-one discount style. And now they're getting something else, which might be seen as a bonus. The Academy confirmed this evening via a press release that Brian Grazer will produce the 84th Academy Awards telecast. The odds on Tom Hanks hosting just went through the roof.
AFF Review: 'Shame' Is a Solid Character Study That Stops Short of Greatness
Austin Events By Luke Mullen on November 3, 2011 | Comments (2)Steve McQueen is not the first established director to get the bug to direct a highly sexual film for adults, and he certainly won't be the last. Sadly, most directors who have actually made bold films about sexuality ended up with sub-par movies. Verhoeven's Showgirls is a punch-line, Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut is an interesting mess, and Cronenberg's Crash is maybe the best example of these experiments. It wouldn't surprise me to see Lars Von Trier do an adult film in the next few years; he's already expressed interest in the subject. While McQueen's Shame does a lot of things right, it stumbles just before the finish line. Brandon (Michael Fassbender) is a normal guy. He goes to work, goes out for drinks with co-workers, goes home. But every waking moment he has is devoted to sex. Thinking about it, watching it, paying for it, sex pervades his every thought. This goes beyond the normal human desire for and fascination with sex and actually consumes his life. When his sister, Cissy (Carey Mulligan), shows up for an unannounced and open-ended visit, it puts a cramp in his style. His normal evenings of watching porn, paying for webcams, and inviting prostitutes over don't really work with his sister sleeping on the couch. Then he gets in hot water with his boss when IT checks his work computer and finds all kinds of pornography filling his hard drive. But he can't stop. His is a true addiction and Brandon can't stop himself.
AFI FEST 2011: Clear Your Schedule for 22 Festival Favorites
AFI Fest By Kate Erbland on November 2, 2011 | Be the First To CommentIf you've been paying as much attention to the lineup for this year's AFI FEST as the rest of us Rejects (read: quite a bit), you've surely noticed that the festival's programming is packed with a number of films that have played some of the year's biggest festivals. If you're in Southern California, the Hollywood-based (and free) film festival will give you a chance to check out the same films that played at Cannes, Toronto, Berlin, Venice, New York, Fantastic Fest, Sundance, London, and more. It's like traveling without leaving your own area code, or spending the cold, hard cash it would take to fly halfway around the world. Sounds pretty simple now, huh, shut-in? AFI FEST will run from November 3rd through the 10th in Hollywood, with all screenings taking place at The Chinese, the Chinese 6 Theatres, and the Egyptian Theatre. Tickets for all screenings are free (and available right HERE). The complete schedule grid is online for the festival, which you can check out HERE. After the break, check out 22 festival favorites (and a sampling of some of the other festivals they've played) that you may have missed throughout the year. Not sure if they're worthy of clearing your AFI FEST schedule for? I've linked to all of our previous coverage, too, so you really have no excuse.
The US 'Shame' Trailer is Covered in Sweat and Prestige
Movie News By Scott Beggs on November 1, 2011 | Comments (1)The sweat is from all the running Michael Fassbender's character seems to be doing, and the prestige is from the plastering of Award Wins all over a crisp trailer for Steve McQueen's Shame that takes its own time in telling a story. It's rare that a trailer doesn't just vomit out story points into our eyeballs, but this one is a symphony of short-form movie advertising. It's quiet almost in purposeful contrast to the NC-17 rating emblazoned on the first few frames, and it slowly reveals Fassbender's character as a high class hound dog with massive emotional issues. Check it out for yourself:
AFI FEST 2011: Kate's 10 Most Anticipated Films
AFI Fest By Kate Erbland on October 27, 2011 | Be the First To CommentEarlier this morning, my partner in LA film festival crime, the lovely Ms. Allison Loring, posted her list of Most Anticipated Films from this year's upcoming AFI FEST presented by Audi. Of course, many of our choices overlap (Shame, Butter, Rampart), but we part ways when it comes to some of the smaller films at the festival. For all the big, Oscar bait flicks (J. Edgar) or the wang- and soul-baring Fass-outings (Shame again, always Shame), there are a few films that I've been positively rabid to see (Alps, Michael) that might not yet have the cache value and audience awareness of those other films. From the festival's incredible list of 110 films, I've narrowed down my list to ten films that are my bonafide Most Anticipated Films of the festival. Like any list, I am sure that some of you perusing it will be displeased, weighing in on titles I'm a fool to miss. But hold your wrath for a few days, because many of the best titles of the fest are ones I've already seen, and those films might just crop up in an unexpected place (like, oh, another list). AFI FEST will run from November 3rd through the 10th in Hollywood, with all screenings taking place at The Chinese, the Chinese 6 Theatres, and the Egyptian Theatre. Tickets for all screenings are free (and available starting today, October 27, right HERE). The complete schedule grid is now online for the festival, which you can check out HERE.

AFI FEST 2011: Allison's 10 Most Anticipated Films
AFI Fest By Allison Loring on October 27, 2011 | Comments (1)With AFI FEST presented by Audi just one week away, fellow FSR-er and AFI FEST attendee Kate Erbland and I went through the impressive list of films on the schedule and selected the ones we are most looking forward to seeing. To the credit of those putting together this year's AFI FEST, I found myself practically highlighting the entire schedule grid as I saw film after film that had already been on my "to-see" list. From films I have been anticipating for the past few months (Shame) to ones I had not heard of until now (Butter), this year's AFI FEST looks to be one of its strongest lineups yet. AFI FEST will run from November 3rd through the 10th in Hollywood, with all screenings taking place at The Chinese, the Chinese 6 Theatres, and the Egyptian Theatre. Tickets for all screenings are free (and available starting today, October 27, right HERE). The complete schedule grid is now online for the festival, which you can check out HERE. After the break, check out my list of my top ten most anticipated films of this year's AFI FEST. Which films are you planning on seeing at this year's AFI FEST?
Movie News After Dark: IRIS 9000, Grace Kelly, Dirty Shame and Tom Cruise Does His Own Damn Stunts
Movie News By Neil Miller on October 26, 2011 | Be the First To CommentWhat is Movie News After Dark? It's a nightly movie news column that brings life to the otherwise gray twilight of your day. It brings color where boredom once lived. Because what the hell else are you going to do before bed, read a book? Ballderdash! We begin tonight with something not exactly news, but equally as important. Above you will see a new product that ThinkGeek will release in 2012 called the IRIS 9000 voice control module for iPhone and Siri. It's exactly what you might think, an iPhone dock that allows you to interact with Siri as if she were HAL 9000. It is perhaps the new holy grail of nerd things. And if you're a member of the FSR staff still looking for a gift for your favorite boss, I will accept a pre-order of this item as an acceptable gift. Seriously, get on that. There's even a video, which I've included after the jump.
Brad Pitt Picks Up a Role in Steve McQueen's 'Twelve Years a Slave'
Casting Couch By Kate Erbland on October 25, 2011 | Comments (1)It looks like Brad Pitt will not just talk the talk, but also walk the walk in Steve McQueen's next project Twelve Years a Slave. Pitt is producing the film through his production company, Plan B, and has reportedly worked on developing the project for a number of years, but now word is out that it won't be just Pitt the producer showing up for filming, but also Pitt the actor. A small item in Screen Daily announcing the addition of River Road Entertainment as producers and financiers, along with the news that Summit International will handle sales of the film at the upcoming American Film Market, also included a cast listing for the project. That list included McQueen's contestant star, Michael Fassbender, along with the already-announced Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Pitt himself. The Playlist went ahead and confirmed the casting with Plan B, who would only confirm that bit of news, but would give no further details. McQueen and John Ridley have adapted their script from the 1853 autobiography written by Solomon Northup, an African-American man who was born free and later abducted into slavery. Northup had an entire life in his native New York (complete with an education, a musical background, a wife, and three children) when he went to Washington in 1841 under the pretense of a job offer to play fiddle in a traveling circus. Once there, he was kidnapped and drugged. He was then sold into slavery and, for the next twelve years, was shuttled between owners and subjected to brutal […]
For Shame: Fox Searchlight Celebrates Its NC-17 Rating, Aims for Oscar
Movie News By Scott Beggs on October 25, 2011 | Comments (3)Feel free to stand up from your seat and slow clap while loved ones and strangers stare, because one studio has decided to slap the stigma of the NC-17 rating right in its moronic little face. As we all know, that stupidity is two-fold. The first is in its existence in the first place. A betting man or woman could win easy money that most don't even know that the NC stands for No One 17 and Under Admitted (because there's a confusing C in there), but it might as well just stand for No Children. There's an absurdly thin line between R and NC-17 that becomes all the more apparent when you hear a screaming 4-year-old in the theater where Jason Statham is beating a dude to death on screen before banging down Amy Smart's doors. Come to think of it, the No Children of NC sounds pretty good in those cases. The second part of the stupidity surrounding the rating (which inherited its bad reputation from the X rating that it morphed into), is in the connotation that some doomed by Puritanical high horsemanship slather onto it. Yes, NC-17 means adult, but there's also nothing wrong with making a film for an adult audience. Those that don't think so, aren't adults. In a way, the rating's reputation does a small service in weeding out those too emotionally, psychologically or sexually infantile to handle a solid adult drama (no matter their age). Sadly, that small service is a life […]
The Coens Sign Carey Mulligan for 'Inside Llewyn Davis'
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on October 21, 2011 | Comments (1)A week ago, when I reported on Joel and Ethan Coen's new movie Inside Llewyn Davis picking up Oscar Isaac as its leading man, I opined that further casting news would probably be coming soon. The Coens' new film is about a folk singer coming up in the Greenwich Village scene, and it's loosely based off the life of Dave Van Rank, so it's going to be necessary for the brotherly team to cast actors as stand-in characters for all of Van Rank's musician friends. Well, a week later the brothers have signed up their first, and this one is a doozy. According to Variety, Carey Mulligan has signed on to play the female lead opposite Isaac. Despite my conclusion-jumping that most of the characters in this film will be musicians of some sort, there isn't actually any confirmation that the character Mulligan will be playing will be musically inclined at all. Variety is correct to point out that the actress has the chops to pull some musical numbers off if she has to, however. She plays a singer in director Steve McQueen's upcoming sex addiction drama Shame and really knocks her singing scene out of the park in that film. It's maybe the most crucial scene of the film, and Mulligan rises to the occasion admirably.
AFI FEST 2011 Announces Centerpiece Galas and Special Screenings; Includes 'Shame,' 'The Artist,' 'Rampart,' and 'We Need to Talk About Kevin'
AFI Fest By Kate Erbland on October 18, 2011 | Be the First To CommentAs it turns out, I've been slightly remiss when it comes to praising this year's 25th edition of AFI FEST 2011 presented by Audi. I've tossed off comments about how the festival gets better with every passing year, but in the wake of today's announcement of the festival's Centerpiece Galas and Special Screenings, I've realized that I have not gone far enough. AFI FEST has not just gotten better this year, the festival has made a dramatic jump to top-tier status, rolling out titles that play like a cinephile's Christmas list for 2011. Today's lineup announcement is essentially a "best-of" list of this year's festival favorites, including Michel Hazanavicius's The Artist, Steve McQueen's Shame, Oren Moverman's Rampart, Lynne Ramsay's We Need to Talk About Kevin, Roman Polanski's Carnage, Simon Curtis's My Week with Marilyn, Lars von Trier's Melancholia, Gerardo Naranjo's Miss Bala, and Wim Wenders's Pina. AFI FEST will run from November 3rd through the 10th in Hollywood, with all screenings taking place at The Chinese, the Chinese 6 Theatres, and the Egyptian Theatre. The best part? Tickets for all screenings are free (and available starting October 27). After the break, check out the full list, including descriptions and showtimes, of the films to be featured as AFI FEST Centerpiece Galas and Special Screenings.
Michael Fassbender Tries to Run from His 'Shame' in Film's First Trailer
Movie News By Kate Erbland on October 14, 2011 | Comments (1)Director Steve McQueen's second collaboration with his Hunger star Michael Fassbender, Shame, has been getting almost universally effusive praise as it's made its way through the recent festival circuit (Venice, Toronto). The film sees Fassbender as Gothamite Brandon, a sex addict who uses his very apparent addiction to keep emotions at arms' length. Brandon's tenuous lifestyle is thrown for a loop when his younger sister (Carey Mulligan), who is just as damaged as him (though perhaps in different ways), shows up to live with him. For all the chatter we've heard about the film (and, in particular, Fassbender's very naked in every sense of the word performance), we've yet to see a trailer until today. The film itself is laced through with all manner of explicit and deviant sex acts, complete with plenty of nudity from its cast, but the first trailer for the film doesn't capitalize on that aspect. Instead, it cuts together the different pieces of Brandon's life, from his late night runs to his constantly leering eye, and it's quite competent at showing a man whose multi-faceted appearance is really all in service to his carnal desires. Put on some protection (from the elements! for the running! obviously!) and check out the first (mostly SFW) trailer for Shame after the break.
Michael Fassbender and Steve McQueen to Re-Team For '12 Years a Slave'
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on October 11, 2011 | Comments (2)Steve McQueen is a proven visual artist and up and coming film director who I'm keeping my eye on very closely. So far he's made two very challenging, and very rewarding films. The first was called Hunger, and it was about the famous 1981 IRA hunger strikes in a Northern Ireland prison. The second is a forthcoming feature called Shame, and it's a very frank look at the life of a man who suffers from sexual compulsion. Both films are visually beautiful, experimental in their approach to filmmaking, and starring Michael Fassbender. I would highly recommend checking them out. It's already been reported that McQueen's next film will be a telling of the life of Solomon Northrup called 12 Years a Slave, and that Chiwetel Ejiofor will be starring. Northrup was a free man kidnapped from Washington in 1841 and forced into slavery for twelve years until he was rescued from a Louisiana plantation in 1853. The film will be based off his biography of the same name. The new information being reported about the film is that Fassbender has signed on to the cast as well, re-teaming him with McQueen for the third time. There isn't any word on who Fassbender will be playing, but that doesn't really matter. Any word of Fassbender and McQueen working together is big news in my book, no matter what the project. While McQueen is one of the directors who I'm very excited to watch develop over the next few years, Fassbender is […]
Movie News After Dark: Kermit In Jail, Finding Cliff Robertson Over The Rim, Highlander, Books of Mormon, and Boatloads of Shame
Features By Scott Beggs on September 12, 2011 | Be the First To CommentWhat is Movie News After Dark? It's the movie website equivalent of stuffing a turkey with three chickens and an eel. News of all shapes and sizes finds itself among some strange bedfellows here even if you can't sleep. We get things started with a metric ton of images and information about The Muppets. If you're willing to brave the spoilers, /film has everything from character descriptions to photos to trivia. Or, you can let the burning questions wash over you. Why is Kermit behind bars? Does it have anything to do with inter-species sex laws? Why wouldn't it?
Movie News After Dark: R-Rated Firsts, McQueen's Shame, The Rocketeer, The Raid, Posters, Blu-rays and The Most Interesting Cat in the World
Movie News By Neil Miller on September 9, 2011 | Comments (8)What is Movie News After Dark? It's nothing more than a nightly film news column that keeps fighting the good fight. The one that celebrates movies, good, bad and otherwise interesting, and is generally optimistic. It doesn't attack other websites that smear its name. Though if /Film's Page 2 keeps mean-mugging it, that bitch is gonna get smacked. That's how we settle things in the streets. As you are about to see, this week's final News After Dark edition comes on a very slow news night. So it's all posters, future Blu-rays and articles I found interesting. Including this AV Club Q&A about first R-rated movies. Like AV's Josh Modell, I'm fairly certain — almost completely certain — that my first R-rated film was The Blues Brothers, a film that has remained part of my beating, movie-loving heart ever since. What was your first R-rated movie? Feel free to let me know in the comment area below and we'll have some fun discussing. Or not, whatever. I see how it is.
Telluride Film Festival Announces Slate; Includes 'The Descendants,' 'Shame,' and 'A Dangerous Method'
Film Festivals By Kate Erbland on September 1, 2011 | Comments (1)This weekend's 38th annual Telluride Film Festival has just announced their slate, including a number of buzzed-about titles from the likes of Cronenberg, Payne, Ramsay, Kaurismäki, Scorsese, Herzog, and McQueen. Telluride differs from other film festivals by keeping mum on its lineup until the day before the festival opens, though speculation runs high in the weeks before opening, with a bevy of well-educated guesses often revealing the festival's top picks well in advance (an example from this year would be We Need to Talk About Kevin, as star Tilda Swinton is a consistent Telluride favorite). The festival will continue to announce additions to its lineup throughout its run. The festival seems to have a taken a number of cues from Cannes and Venice, with Cannes picks The Artist, Le Havre, Footnote, The Kid with a Bike, Bonsai, and We Need to Talk About Kevin showing, along with Venice films A Dangerous Method and Shame. The festival also announced that they will be bestowing the Silver Medallion Awards (which "recognize an artist's contribution to the world of cinema") to George Clooney (starring in The Descendants at the festival), Swinton, and French filmmaker-actor Pierre Etaix. The festival runs this weekend, from September 2 through September 5. Check out the full lineup for the festival's main program, which also includes Albert Nobbs, Living in the Material World, and The Tuirn Horse, after the break.
Chiwetel Ejiofor Will Spend '12 Years a Slave' With Steve McQueen
Casting Couch By Nathan Adams on August 16, 2011 | Be the First To CommentVisual artist turned visual artist who directs feature films Steve McQueen turned a lot of heads with his 2008 feature debut Hunger. It was a visual experience chock full of beautiful photography, great performances, and experimental filmmaking. His second film Shame, which stars Michael Fassbender and Carey Mulligan, and supposedly explores sexuality and human nature, is getting ready to debut in Toronto and Venice come their September film festivals. Before we even get a chance to take in that film, however, comes word of what McQueen plans to work on next.

Screen Grabbers
Taking screen grabs is a common enough task for Web designers. Whether you need an image for reference or for a portfolio, having the right tool for the job makes things a lot easier.
Windows has a very basic screen grabber build-in. Hit Print-Screen (F13) and it puts the contents of the window onto the clipboard ready to paste into a graphics editor. Hold down the Alt key and press Print-Screen to capture the front window only. Okay, so you have to do a bit of cropping afterwards, but it's no big deal.
Screen grabbing on Mac OS is better catered for. In addition to full screen and window grabs, if you hit Control-Shift-Command-4 (it's easier than it sounds), you get a crosshair with which you can select any part of the screen. When you let go of the mouse button, the section is on the clipboard to be pasted wherever you like.
Also bundled with Mac OSX is the Grab utility which allows a timed grab, so it takes the snap after a ten second time delay, so you have time to rearrange things on the screen if you want.
One of the most useful facilities for Web designers, the ability to screen grab an entire web page, even the bits that are off-screen (and without resorting to multiple grabs and stitching the whole thing together) is left to third party developers. The cost of such utilities is not high and the added convenience and time saving makes them a good addition to the Web designers toolkit.
All these screen grabbers offer the same basic facilities but each has its own additional features that you may or may not find useful.
