Having trouble getting your credit card balances under control? If so, you're in the same boat as thousands of other consumers. Good news: Once you choose to change your spending habits, it is possible to make your debt manageable. Use these simple tips as a foothold to stop sinking deeper into debt and start regaining control of your finances.
Only sending in the minimum monthly payment means paying your bill could take ages, and the interest rates (10-29%) that credit card companies charge will keep your bill growing every month. Instead, send as large of a payment as you can afford. Whenever possible, try to reduce your spending in other areas to focus on paying off your credit card debt. This will help keep compound interest from working against you.
Your monthly necessities should be paid with your monthly income. Keeping required purchases like groceries and utility bills off of your credit card is a major step toward getting your spending under control. A $3 gallon of milk purchased with a credit card can quickly turn into a $30 gallon of milk if you don't pay off the balance at the end of the month. There's no need to incur interest charges on necessary items that you should be covering with your paycheck.
As long as the credit card balance is paid in full and on time each month, there is nothing wrong with using credit cards to earn rewards. But, if you can't pay off the money you spent during the month, the rewards earned from credit cards are often worth far less than the interest accrued. Credit card reward schemes often come out to a 2% bonus. Because the amount of interest charged on outstanding account balances exceeds the bonus, incurring double-digit interest amounts to a loss.
Credit card companies often sends checks to cardholders in the mail. These checks are cash advances. Taking a cash advance will cause you to accrue interest the minute the advance is taken - unlike with regular credit card purchases, there is often no grace period. An automatic fee of 2-4% is also charged on the amount of the cash advance in addition to a higher interest rate compared to your regular credit card balance.
Medical bills can be overwhelmingly expensive, especially if you're uninsured. If you're having trouble paying your medical bills, you should attempt to negotiate an agreement with your medical care provider. Don't add to your bills - and your stress - by tacking exorbitant credit card interest rates onto your medical expenses. Also consider going over your bills with a fine-toothed comb to make sure they are accurate and that you understand all of the charges.
Ignoring your credit cards bills may seem like a temporary solution, but it's a bad idea because the interest you're paying will only cause the balance to grow. In fact, missing a payment or two may also cause the interest rate to increase. Rather than trying to hide, you should call each of your credit card providers to renegotiate the terms of your agreement in order to lower the interest rate, set up a payment plan, or even have some of your debt forgiven. Ignoring your debt can spur debt collectors into action, and with the unsavory tactics collectors are employing, you definitely don't want to be on their radar.
Cleaning up your credit card debt takes time and self control, but the steps outlined here aren't difficult. There's no reason that credit cards can't be a helpful, convenient tool - assuming you can learn to use them sensibly and responsibly. For more credit card tips, read:

text: | Dáil Éireann - Volume 353 - 24 October, 1984 Supplementary Estimates, 1984. - Copyright (Amendment) Bill, 1984: From the Seanad. The Dáil by Order went into Committee to consider Amendments from the Seanad. Acting Chairman (Mr. Prendergast) Acting Chairman (Mr. Prendergast) 426 [426] Acting Chairman (Mr. Prendergast): There are six Seanad amendments. To amendment No. 1 Deputy Flynn has put down two amendments, which are in order. Seanad Amendment No. 1: New section: 1. In page 2, before section 1, the following section inserted— 1.—Section 14 of the Copyright Act, 1963 is hereby amended by the insertion after subsection (7) of the following subsection: '(7A) The making of an object of any description which is in three dimensions shall not be taken to constitute an infringement of the copyright in an artistic work in two dimensions (other than such a work relating to a work of architecture) if— (a) any of the features following, that is to say, shape, configuration and pattern that appear in the work and are applied to the object are wholly or substantially functional, and (b) the object is one which is or has been manufactured by the owner of the copyright or by any person authorised by such owner and is or has been commercially available in numbers in excess of 50.'.". Mr. Flynn Mr. Flynn Mr. Flynn: I move amendment No. 1 to Seanad amendment No. 1: In the ninth line, after "object are" to delete "wholly or substantially functional" and substitute the following "dictated solely by the function which is to be performed". Minister of State at the Department of Industry, Trade, Commerce and Tourism (Mr. E. Collins) Minister of State at the Department of Industry, Trade, Commerce and Tourism (Mr. E. Collins) 427 Minister of State at the Department of Industry, Trade, Commerce and Tourism (Mr. E. Collins): Unfortunately I cannot accept the amendment proposed by Deputy Flynn. To substitute the alternative [427] words proposed would narrow the scope of what we are trying to achieve in the Bill and would continue to give rise to legal uncertainties. The arguments advanced for a change in the wording, I am advised, are not well founded. We were very careful in framing the section. I ask the Deputy to understand that it was done in the best interests of the country and that we are in no way trying to damage the traditional rights of copyright owners. On the second amendment proposed by Deputy Flynn, in the short time available because the amendments were received officially today, the Attorney General's Office were not in a position to consider whether this amendment was necessary or if it is even proper and in a legal form. Accordingly, it is necessary for the Minister to take some time to consider the amendment. I ask the Deputy to allow the Bill to pass through the House in its present form. Mr. Flynn Mr. Flynn Mr. Flynn: While I would like to accommodate the Minister, the best advice available to me is that if the amendment being promoted by the Minister is allowed to stand, it will create more problems than it will solve, and that it will do nothing to achieve the purpose for which it is intended. The thrust of the amendment is quite acceptable to everyone, but it has been suggested to me that it is weak in certain areas. For that reason I felt I had to put down these two amendments. 428 They may have been late, but I find it difficult to understand the Minister's attitude. He said he is not in a position to discuss the matter because he has not received sufficient legal advice from the Attorney General's Office. There was a very easy way to deal with that matter. If the Minister felt he needed more time, I would have been more than happy to accommodate him. He might have been advised that the amendments I submitted would help to strengthen the section. I got advice from industry and other interested parties outside the House, who [428] sought in the recent past to get the message to the Minister that they supported in toto what he had in mind to achieve in the amendment, and that it was very necessary. So do I, but they are concerned about the form of the amendment. For that reason they are disappointed that there was not a response from the Minister's office to their request. Having considered the matter fully I felt the proper thing to do was to put down the two amendments not to create tardiness in having the proposal introduced into the legislation, but purely to try to strengthen and clarify the section for the entrepreneurs who will be operating under the legislation for a considerable length of time. I was also seeking a commitment from the Minister because of the fact that this amendment would be stripping certain types of operators in the economy of the protection afforded to them under the Copyright Act. 429 It would be necessary, in everybody's opinion outside this House, that alterations would be made in the Industrial and Commercial Property Protection Act, of 1927, Part 3. This concerns the question of design. It was regarded as essential to afford the protection that would be necessary to individuals engaged in these matters and that the Minister might be in a position to give a guarantee this evening that in a specified period of time he would be prepared to bring in amending legislation of this Act of 1927. I am sorry that the Minister feels it necessary to rush this legislation through. It raises very serious questions, with which I would have to deal in fairness to the legislation and in fairness to Minister Bruton. That Minister, when this Bill was introduced first, was most co-operative with this side of the House. He certainly got full co-operation in that it was regarded at the time as being essential legislation to control the widespread abuse of piracy in so far as videos were concerned. The question is dealt with of fines which the Garda could impose in dealing with illegal videos being smuggled in by various methods and hawked [429] about the town on building sites and estates, having a very bad influence on many of the population in certain areas. We agreed all that in the original Bill. I asked the Minister to consider further aspects that would strengthen his hand in this regard and he very kindly, in a spirt of co-operation, accepted the bona fides of my submission and entered some amendments to support my point of view. The Bill went to the Seanad and other matters arose. Because of these things, the Minister found it necessary to amend another section of the Principal Act — the Copyright Act of 1963. That legislation appears back here without any discussion at all in the House on it. That, I understood, was the reason for its appearance here this evening. I am disappointed that the Minister says he is not in a position to take this amendment at all. While I would have been more than happy to give it a nod and a wink, which is the easiest way out of anything, I am concerned about interests outside the House who do not feel that they were properly accommodated in the submissions being made in support of the strengthening of the amendment. For that reason, I feel obliged to pursue the matter a little further. I know how important this is, when one considers that there are one or two very major projects hingeing on the passing of this legislation. I certainly would not be the one to stand in the way of the attraction of major high technology industries into this country in such depressed times. For that reason it must be clearly understood that all I have in mind is to help the Minister to strengthen these two lines of the amendment which would add enormously to the effectiveness of the legislation and dispel the confusion which I understand will ensue if it is left to stand in the format in which it is now framed. 430 I can quite readily support copyright protection in drawings of functional objects so that it would be an infringement of copyright if someone else were to manufacture it in commercial quantities. Indeed, all the industrial agencies are in [430] favour of preserving copyright protection in such drawings where the object depicted is not produced in commercial quantities by the holder of the copyright or authorised agents. Commercial quantities, I understand, would be not less than 50 units of the object. The existing Copyright Act has been successfully used by quite a few indigenous companies here as a means of restraining other firms here from copying functional objects which they had developed for both home and overseas markets. The proposed amendment to the Act could, therefore, be seen as a deterrent to investment in new product development. The whole thrust of this amendment is to allow new manufacturing outlets to proceed without the danger of being challenged in the court in so far as the subsistence of copyright in various designs is concerned. It is important that the section be amended to ensure that the manufacturer marketing a functional object does not infringe the copyright in the drawing of the object, provided of course that the object is in commercial production. Herein lies the crux. The passing of this legislation, even in the amended format that I suggest, would strip some of the protection available through copyright. It would be necessary to protect the interests by having other amending legislation guaranteed or at least promised here this evening. This would cover firms who wish to retain the protection currently enjoyed under the Copyright Act of 1963. It is imperative that the Industrial and Commercial Property Protection Act of 1927, Part 3, be amended so that design covers the appearance of functional objects. This is a highly technical area. The best advice that I have is that a guarantee must be afforded here that the Minister will give an undertaking to have this matter introduced in the House at an early stage. If the Minister would nod his agreement to that it would be very acceptable and would deal with much of the confusion and perhaps, fears which exist outside the House. 431 The original new shape as applied to any article produced in more than 50 copies can be protected as a registered [431] design under Part 3 of the Industrial and Commercial Property Protection Act of 1927 and the maximum period of protection afforded to a registered design is 15 years and to a patent 16 years. Of course, the protection afforded under a copyright is the life of the individual and 50 years beyond, so it is easy to understand how people could monopolise markets for considerable periods of time if allowed to continue in this way. This amendment is being introduced to strip away that protection so that entrepreneurs and industrialists here can become involved in producing goods which would otherwise have to be imported. I would support the Minister in his attitude in this regard, in that having this amendment would help enormously in the import substitution drive. My difficulty is not with that; it is with the question of the format and the words being used. For that reason my amendments are being introduced. The protection afforded by the Copyright Act of 1963 does not apply to articles capable of being registered under the provisions of Part 3 of the Industrial and Commercial Property Protection Act. The Copyright Act protects original drawings and any three-dimensional representation of those drawings. Consequently, purely functional articles which start their life on the drawing board are currently entitled to a far greater degree of protection than articles which qualify for protection as registered designs. It is for that reason that I want the commitment concerning the 1927 Act to be entered into here. The duration of the protection enjoyed by a copyright owner is the lifetime of the author plus 50 years thereafter. 432 The High Court has upheld copyrights in original drawings in respect of such items as the simple fish box and has prevented manufacturers here from becoming involved in what would be very worthwhile industrial projects because of the difficulties encountered in the High Court. Numerous local manufacturers have been stopped and some deterred from producing articles by a threat of [432] infringement proceedings by copyright owners. Industrial development is being hindered by the application of the Copyright Act which also stunts initiatives such as the import substitution programme and I take it that this is the reason the Minister is entering this amendment at this time. He has projects that he would like to see cleared that would be in danger of infringing on the Copyright Act. Mr. J. Bruton Mr. J. Bruton Mr. J. Bruton: Not only in import substitution. Mr. Flynn Mr. Flynn Mr. Flynn: Of course not, in high technology industries also, which I referred to earlier. Having listened to the Minister of State, who said he had not time to consult with the Attorney General about the bona fides of my amendment, I say that the Minister in the intervening period before this is taken again might have an opportunity to see if this amendment can be strengthened by my amendment or some other formula of words that I would be prepared to accept. Mr. E. Collins Mr. E. Collins Mr. E. Collins: I would like to be allowed time to consider the amendments. Progress reported; Committee to sit again. Dáil Éireann 353 Supplementary Estimates, 1984.

Some of you lunatics have previously equated the appeal of these write-ups with the Endurance Runs of our former sister site. And I won't lie - - sometimes they do feel like tests of endurance, even for shows I'm generally appreciating.
Indeed, I'm starting to think that the plotting of this series is supposed to put you in the mindset of its doomed heroes; slogging through an endless, overcast wasteland with a hope for some worthwhile endpoint you really aren't that convinced of, anyway.
In other words, this is a show that could inspire one hell of an essay - - but it's not something that you enjoy watching at all times. It's not as guilty of putting academia over basic entertainment as all the self-important cyberpunk "thrillers" I've so often derided - - but it still isn't really a show that you can just recommend to somebody without a fairly long list of qualifiers.
Said hypothetical viewer might bring up that the inconsistent rules of Casshern's invincibility not only render his defeat and capture last episode insensible, but also make this final duel with Dio both redundant and tension-less. And even the biggest mark for this show couldn't disagree with him.
I am a bit intrigued by Luna's choice of words when she might have "healed Leda too much" or some such. I don't know - - I've entertained a daydream sometimes of what life would be like if you were ever totally healed of even your slightest maladies. All your scars and blemishes and lingering injuries gone with a POOF! Would there be a drawback to such a magic trick? Could Leda's collapse be some observant comment about the dangers of perfection as we often define it?
Probably not, to be objective. Instead, we're getting some less-than-subtle religious symbolism with Luna's blood communion and Casshern's cruciform pose… all of it making me wonder if this show didn't have enough ideas to fill its run-time and then fearful that its ending will just be wet and limp.
Watch this episode, "A Drop Called Eternity" here and decide for yourself, then read my comments on the previous episode here.

My luffa harvest is just beginning to come in and I wanted to save some of the seeds for next year. My question is, why are the seeds that come out of my harvested luffas white, while the ones I planted were black? Is it that the luffas are too young? Or that the seeds I planted were treated somehow (they were from R.H. Shumway). Should I be concerned about saving the seeds?
Thanks in advance! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I would guess that the seeds that are white are immature. If you have not harvested all of your luffas, I would hold off a while yet before harvesting another one, and seeing then if they have matured to a dark color. I have only ever seen the dark, maybe almost black looking luffa seeds. Sue |

Women's Health
A fashion designer and stylist for more than 15 years, Heather Thomson has worked with celebrities like P. Diddy, Jennifer Lopez, and Beyoncé to launch and develop their designer clothing lines into major brands. Yet it wasn't until the birth of her first child - and a subsequent health crisis - that Thomson realized something she herself had a need for could empower women to feel comfortable, confident, and sexy. After just one year, Yummie TummieTM is carried in more than 2,000 stores nationwide. It was selected as one of Oprah's Favorite Things, and has become the go-to solution for consumers and celebrities alike.
Quick Stats: Heather lives in Manhattan with her husband of seven years, Jonathan, their son Alexander Jack, and daughter Ella Rae, 5 and 2 respectively.
How did you break into fashion?
I had been cutting and sewing my own clothes since I was a child. When I graduated from college, I didn't really know what I wanted to do so I worked in a ski shop as a specialist. I realized the store had only medium and high price point merchandise so I suggested they do a private label line. They asked me if I could help them, so I started to sketch the collection and that's when I decided I wanted to be a designer. I then worked as the assistant to the president of an intimate apparel company - traveling all over the world, learning pattern making and cutting on the factory floors - and I started to design for them.
Where did you get the idea for Yummie TummieTM?
My son was born with a severe upper respiratory infection and for the first 48 hours, he fought for his life. Then we found out he had a rare liver disease, biliary atresia, and that he would need a liver transplant at 6 months old. (Alexander Jack is healthy today). I still had 30 pounds left to lose so I went to the shape wear department for something to hold in my stomach and was really horrified at what my options were. The only choice for women who had bellies was a girdle! So out of frustration, I took a bunch of the shape wear products and I sewed the first Yummie TummieTM tank top. When I wore it, people would compliment me on losing the baby weight and I would say, "Oh please, it's my Yummie Tummie!" When women told me they wanted one, I started to sew them at home. Then my husband reminded me how I always want to inspire women and here I had the opportunity to do so. That's when I decided I would produce some and make them available to the public.
What were the steps involved?
My husband helped me put together a business plan and I looked for financing. We enrolled in a trade show and launched with the original tank top in 10 colors. We sold thousands.
What would you tell someone who has an idea but doesn't have financing right away?
If it's an original idea, trademark it and hire a patent attorney. If it's not an original idea but you think it's better than what everyone else offers, spend the money for publicity so the world knows you exist.
How do you manage the work/life balance?
It takes teamwork. We have a nanny and my children's godparents are involved in their lives. I'm 100 percent Mommy when I come home and I have a pact that I never walk into the house on the phone.

- Unroll and lay out the Rubber Matting.
- Leave the flooring unrolled, in place for no less than 12 hours (ideally 24 hours) to adjust to the temperature. To prevent the mat from curling up, it helps if after the 12 hours wait, you flip the rolls over and roll them up in the opposite direction. Clean the floor again and unroll the mats.
- Make any necessary cuts in the mats to fit around immovable objects in the room, with a sharp blade and metal straight edge.
- Rolls must be installed in the same direction. Start on one side of the room and work your way towards the opposite side. Do not start on both ends.
- For Loose Lay installation, apply double sided tape to the perimeter of each roll.
- For Glue down installation, roll up the rolls and spread adhesive out in a line in front of the roll, about 8 to 10 feet, unroll the mat over it to the end of the adhesive and repeat till fully unrolled.
- In glue down installations, it is strongly recommended that you go over the mats with a 100 lb roller to ensure a proper bond. If a roller cannot be located for use, alternatively, you can walk on the mat, using small overlapping steps making sure that every inch of the mat has been walked on.

Just curious what others think. My personal view is no…bypassing still costs 1 credit, which is the same cost as the penalty for the corp to play an extra piece of ICE in front of the server. Of course, if you can find a way to trash the Femme Fatale, the ICE remains strong.
As a follow-up…is there ever any reason to trash a rezzed piece of ICE?

Then: Drawn by inexpensive, tasty food, Hastings-area residents of all ages — especially teenagers — frequented Ray's A & W Drive In at 316 S. Elm Ave.
Now: A & W is gone. The gravel lot that once housed the drive-in restaurant is home to Miscues Pool Hall, but that doesn't keep people from reminiscing.
Carole Bryant of Hastings, who worked at the A & W in 1963 during the summer between her junior and senior years of high school, would draw sodas and floats, and hand orders to the carhops.
"The lot was big enough that if that (the gravel lot) was full, people would drive right up behind somebody they knew," she said. "Cars would just be everywhere. It was definitely the place to meet people, absolutely. It was a riot. You saw everybody there during the night at one point."
Car enthusiast Tom Havel, who graduated from St. Cecilia in 1962 but who now lives in Longmont, Colo., remembers the restaurant as a place to begin the evening before cruising around Hastings. It was not unlike Mel's Drive-In in the movie "American Graffiti."
"You might hit that place two or three times in an evening," he said. "Burlington was our main cruising place but you could come up Highway 6 over the viaduct and pull in there if you saw somebody you knew."
He said along with the Whirl-A-Whip Drive Inn on South Burlington Avenue, the A & W was the place to be. The parking lot was almost always full.
"It was big enough there, there was good food and it was just a neat place to hang out," he said.
Bryant said from what she could tell from her station and the time she spent there hanging out with friends, it was filled with people of all ages, not just teenagers.
"My parents used to take us out there and we would get root beers and hot dogs or sometimes just root beers or sometimes just an ice cream cone, just something to get out and sit," she said. "It was all age groups, families with little kids, anybody with a car. It was definitely the place to be when the weather was good. It was cheap entertainment. It was fun."
Hastings resident Ilene Yurk remembers fondly going there with her family in the late 1960s and early '70s.
"There was five of us kids. It was one of those things where we would take a car ride with Mom and Dad and go to the A & W and we all got those baby root beers, the kids did," said Yurk, who turned 53 this week. "We didn't have a lot of money but I just remember that was something that stands out in my memory being a little kid."
There were three sizes of glass mugs back then that cost 10 cents, 5 cents and free, Bryant remembered.
For Yurk, just the experience of going to a drive-in restaurant and using the speaker and tray was special.
"I thought it looked like it was magic that it (the tray) could stay up like that and not fall down," she said.
For Havel, Ray's A & W was integral to his driving experience from the very beginning. It was the first place he went after receiving his drivers license when he turned 16.
He had gone on a family errand to pick up day-old bread across the street at Debus Bakery.
"The A & W was right there, so that's where I pulled in," he said.
Sometimes it could get rowdy.
"Probably the best fist fight I ever saw was out there at the A & W between two guys who were friends of mine," he said.
One time when Havel was parked at A & W in his '41 Chevrolet pickup — which had a split manifold and chrome plumbing pipe up the side for stacks — his friends filled the stacks with gravel while he was distracted talking to someone else.
"Of course when I started my truck we had gravel. … It just blew all over the place," he said.
Fortunately, the parking lot was relatively empty then.
The glass mugs were popular with customers. They were so popular with Havel that he got in trouble with his father over an illicit collection he developed.
His father wanted to store something in the rafters of the garage at their home on the 400 block of North Briggs Avenue. There wasn't any room there because Havel had packed it with about 70 contraband A & W mugs and 25 trays.
His father wasn't too happy about that.
"Back in those days you'd better pay attention to what your dad says," he said. "So I loaded my pickup full of those after the place closed (that night)."
Along with contributions from friends Havel completely lined the serving stand with stolen mugs.
He still has two A & W mugs.
"I'm sure I wasn't one of the only ones who did," he said about driving away with glass mugs. "Those were the good ol' days."
In addition to root beer floats and hamburgers, the A & W also sold cigarettes.
At just 25 or 50 cents per pack — Bryant can't remember exactly how much — the cigarettes were quite popular.
"We sold 'em and sold 'em," she said.
The cigarettes were popular with employees, too.
"They were pretty easy to reach right up there and take," she said. "We'd take a pack and go back and smoke them when Ray wasn't looking. Not exactly healthy."
In the early 1960s Ray's A & W was owned by Ray Dwyer.
Bryant said he was a great boss who never micro-managed employees.
At the beginning of a shift employees, nearly all of whom were teenage girls, received a hamburger and root beer. Bryant said at the end of the night Dwyer used his pickup truck to drop off everyone.
"I don't think you would get by with that any more, kids riding around in a pickup at midnight, but it was perfectly cool back then," she said.
Renee Lenstrom, who lives in Sargent now but who graduated from Hastings High School, worked as a carhop at the A & W the summer of 1977 when she was 14.
It was her first job, aside from baby-sitting.
"Everybody thought that was such a cool thing, that you work at A & W," she said.
Carrying trays full of frosty, heavy glass mugs full of ice cream and soda across a crowded gravel parking lot wasn't always easy.
"You're out trying to carry them and all of this stuff going on," she said. "I happened to trip and everything went flying. That's what I remember, and I think everybody who was there may have remembered it."

Alright, so June didn't exactly kick us into high gear the way it should have. We didn't get another Avengers, a movie everyone lost their nuts over. From the blockbusters to the little guys, there was a lack in unanimous love and praise to be found. We did finally get Prometheus, a movie which could go down as this summer's main topic of movie conversation over whether "It was awesome! No, it sucked!" but we get those all too often during this time of year. If we're going to get one movie to feed the millions with true, big summer entertainment where all the harshest critics will be beaten across the world, then we got one 'lil superhero movie coming up that may provoke such a reaction… The Amazing Spider-Man! Actually, no, but Marc Webb's reboot does pass the time nicely and, at the very least, gives us a new Peter Parker we can care about. But that doesn't mean it made this list. Find out what did:
Tribeca 2012 Rounds Out Feature Lineup with 'Take This Waltz,' 'Headshot,' 'Lola Versus,' and More
Film Festivals By Kate Erbland on March 8, 2012 | Be the First To CommentEarlier this week, our own Cole Abaius announced the first wave of this year's Tribeca Film Festival's film lineup. That assault was impressive enough, complete with lots of compelling picks in the World Narrative Feature Competition, World Documentary Feature Competition , and Viewpoints sections, but today's release of the final feature film sections is a whole other volley of firepower. With today's announcement of their Spotlight, Cinemania, Special Screenings, and the 2012 Tribeca/ESPN Sports Film Festival, the fest has completed their feature announcements – and made me start to wonder if I should try to hit Gotham for the festival, running April 18 – 29. Picks that stand out to me already include the delightful 2 Days in New York, Chicken With Plums, Don't Stop Believin': Everyman's Journey, The Giant Mechanical Man, Headshot, Lola Versus, Take This Waltz, Your Sister's Sister, and Sleepless Night. Check out the full list of films (along with Tribeca-provided synopses) after the break.
The 87 Most Interesting Movies of the 2012 European Film Market (or 87 Movies You Probably Haven't Heard of But Need On Your Radar)
Berlinale By Scott Beggs on February 27, 2012 | Comments (4)There's a solid chance that you haven't heard of most of these movies. Yet they exist – out there somewhere as a thorn in the side of movie fans trying to see as much as possible. Nuggets of potential waiting to be picked up from the movie orphanage by a distributor and given a warm home with cup holders in every seat. The European Film Market is fascinating for that reason and for the way people attend it. Tickets this year were around $600, but that's a reasonable price for companies sending representatives trying to find the next moneymaker for their company or the hot movie to bring to their festival. That means screenings come complete with people on cell phones and unimpressed buyers walking out after ten minutes to hustle next door to see if the other movie playing has any promise to it. It's a bizarre way to watch movies, but it makes a kind of sense given the massive size of the movie list compared to the tiny amount of time to see everything. There were upwards of 675 movies in the EFM this year, all of them with their own selling points. Here are the 87 most interesting-sounding with descriptions found in the official catalog. For the most part, I haven't seen these movies (and didn't even know about many of them until the Berlin Film Festival), but they all have something going for them that should earn them a spot on your radar.
Enjoy the Rhythmic Swaying of the 'Trishna' Teaser Trailer
Movie News By Scott Beggs on August 18, 2011 | Comments (2)There's a lot of dancing going on in this trailer for Michael Winterbottom's Trishna. Typical Bollywood style numbers with their elaborate flair. Intimate undulations between two people falling in love. The kind of dance moves that happen between sheets. They're all there, and they all look stunning. Winterbottom seeks to confound here a bit, combining several elements from past films and making something that looks nothing like anything he's done before. There's a dash of 24 Hour Party People, the sensuality of 9 Songs, and maybe even a taste of A Mighty Heart's dramatics, but over all, this story of star cross'd lovers looks like a new animal. It stars Freida Pinto and Riz Ahmed as the daughter of a rickshaw owner and the son of a land developer that only have eyes for each other. How much do you want to bet that their love is forbidden? Sink down into the poetry of it all for yourself:

5 Things I Am Looking Forward To In the New Year
Posted by Lauren Hartmann
A new year always seems like a big turning point, even though the actual day is a bit arbitrary. I still love the idea of starting fresh and new and I love looking forward to things to come with anticipation. I'm not a big fan of setting huge lofty goals or resolutions for myself, but I do like looking ahead. These are a few things I'm looking forward to in the coming year.
A fresh start...
I love that the New Year brings with it a sense of possibility and a hint of magic…like anything can happen. I'm excited to start over fresh! (P.S. I'm giving away this calendar as a fun way to start a fresh year over on Instagram right now!)

A new baby
Sometimes with the hustle and bustle of chasing after a toddler I forget that I'm even pregnant, but I'm looking forward to meeting Baby #2, and I'm sure June will be here before I know it!
Seeing her become a big sister
I can't wait to see Fern as a big sister. Part of it is a little bittersweet, because it will mean an end to our time as a buddied up duo and she will seem even older than she already does compared to a tiny baby, but I know she's going to love it. She's so nurturing and completely obsessed with babies, so I'm not terribly worried about the transition – at least not yet!
Spending more time relaxing
2013 felt like a very busy year for our family. There were lots of remodels on the house and lots of playdates, projects and outings. This year with a new baby coming, I'm looking forward to slowing things down a bit and enjoying more time close to home. I'm also hoping to truly consider the things I say yes to and to not overextend myself.
Watching him become a new Daddy again
Seeing your husband fall in love with a little one is a truly sweet experience and I loved watching the relationship between my husband and Fern develop. I can't wait to watch it all over again with our newest little one. Also looking forward to figuring out how to tag team the parenting of two kiddos with this guy!

Dutch Crossing: recognition for a journal examining a global influence
7 January 2010
Dutch Crossing: Journal of Low Countries Studies, the international peer-reviewed research journal edited by UCL Dutch, has received an honourable mention at the 2009 Journal Awards of the Council of Editors of Learned Journals (CELJ). The journal, which was established 33 years ago, was recognised in the category of Phoenix Award for Significant Editorial Achievement. Journal editor Ulrich Tiedau received the prestigious award on the 125th convention of the Modern Language Association (MLA) in Philadelphia on 28 December 2009.
Dutch Crossing is
devoted to all aspects of Dutch Studies: history and art history of the
Low Countries, Dutch and Flemish (and occasionally Afrikaans) literary
and cultural studies; linguistics of Dutch; and intercultural and
transnational studies. It covers all aspects of 'Global Dutch' –
regions where Dutch historically had or continues to have an impact,
including parts of the Americas, Southern Africa and South East Asia.
A special focus concerns relations between the Low
Countries and the English-speaking world in all periods from the Middle
Ages to the present day. The most recent issue for example features an
article on the Dutch influence on British Architecture in the
Late-Stuart Period. The article cites the compact Dutch Calvinist
churches as an obvious reference point and inspiration for the scale of
the post-Fire London churches, and the presence of Dutch craftsmen in
London as a potential source of advice and information.
Previous issues of the journal have looked at the various
ways in which London's early-modern Dutch expatriate community and its
material culture shaped notions of Anglo-Dutch cultural exchange from
within England's borders and investigated the relationship between
historical scholarship and the tourism industry using Rembrandt's 400th
anniversary in 2006 as an example.
The editorial team is delighted at the news: "An honourable mention from the CELJ for Dutch Crossing
is a tribute to both the editorial and publishing teams' hard work to
produce such an interesting and visually appealing journal issue. There
are plenty more developments to come for the journal and we are
dedicated to growing the journal's reputation as a leading reputation
in Low Countries studies."
UCL context
UCL houses the largest Centre for Dutch Studies in the
English-speaking world. The department, founded in 1919, was the first
of its kind in the UK. Today it offers a full range of undergraduate
and graduate degree programmes and is an acknowledged centre of
excellence in both teaching and research in the field of Dutch and
Flemish language and culture. UCL also houses the most comprehensive
Dutch library in the English-speaking world and hosts an annual Writer
in Residence scheme with acclaimed Dutch writers coming over from the
Netherlands and working with students. To find out more about UCL

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

President Obama's remarks at annual Ramadan dinner tonight:
Obama said the annual Ramadan dinner, a tradition that President Clinton
began and President George W. Bush continued, is "quintessentially
"No matter who we are or how we pray, we're all children of a loving God,"
he said.
Obama recognized Muslim members of Congress, Reps. Keith Ellison (D-MN)
and Andre Carson (D-IN) in attendance, noting the dinner and Ramadan as a
special time for reflection for the nearly one billion Muslims in the U.S.
and around the world.
In the weeks leading up to the ten-year anniversary of the September 11th
attacks on New York and the Pentagon, all Americans are reflecting on the
events of that horrific day and the decade after it, he said.
There were Americans of every faith killed during the 9/11 attacks, Obama
said, including Muslim first responders in New York and a Naval Officer at
the Pentagon. He then recognized several family members of Muslim 9/11
victims at the dinner.
"On the 10th anniversary...we know them for what they are: American
heroes," Obama said.
The President then honored those Muslims who have served in the U.S.
military over the last decade.
"Make no mistake, Muslim-Americans help keep us safe," he said.
Obama specifically recognized one Army Specialist who died in combat. His
mother was at the dinner, and Obama asked her to stand.
He also recognized about a half dozen other Muslim members of the Armed
Services, some of whom wore their dress uniforms to the dinner.
Speaking about those who died September 11th and those who died fighting
in Afghanistan and Iraq afterward, Obama said the U.S. should live up to
their sacrifice.
"We must not only be the America they lived for but the America they died
for," he said. "...We must be the America who pulls together as one
family. This is who we are and who we must continue to be."

Facts about Elizabeth
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Orange Or Red (Mostly)
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
My name is Elizabeth!
Elizabeth's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, not good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Elizabeth is a beautiful girl who loves affection but can be a little hesitant at first. She is very affectionate once she gets used to you and gazes at you with adoration when you give her loving scratches behind her ears. Elizabeth would be ok with other kitties but would probably do better in a household without a lot of excitable youngsters running around.
In addition to being spayed and up to date on all shots, Elizabeth is microchipped, has been tested for FeLV/FIV, wormed, checked for ear mites and treated with flea meds. Our girl Elizabeth deserves a furever home where she is treated like a queen!

Sometimes you find that a road less traveled holds true to Robert Frost's promise: it does make all the difference. Other times, you discover that the road is less traveled because it's a bad road. Belize, a tiny country with a ribbon of beaches running along the Caribbean Sea, is not a place you visit for its infrastructure. But the country is one of the few places that's as jungly as it is sandy, and despite its accessibility, it still retains a palpably exotic air. My curiosity about Belize's wildlife (more than 500 species of birds and the world's largest jaguar population) and its ancient Mayan ruins led me to travel there last fall. I planned to crisscross the country by car—rather than flying on eight-seater airplanes.
You see, I'd heard that Belize has some of the best roads in Central America. And even though the country was under British occupation for more than 150 years, back when it was called British Honduras, Belizeans drive on the right side of the road. Also, English is the nation's official language, which I presumed meant that signs would be readable and directions easy to ask for.
Eager to trade the clogged freeways of Southern California for a road trip through Belize's rain forest and down its coast, I packed three bathing suits and insect repellent. I also brought along a driving buddy, my old friend Ron, a rugged Midwesterner who can maneuver large farm equipment and who insisted that my pampered, urban, Saab-driving ways would render me useless on rocky Central American highways.
Day 1: Belize City to Maruba Resort Jungle Spa 100 miles
At the airport in Belize City, we rent a cell phone and a Suzuki Jimmy, a small jeep whose shock absorption on these roads is along the lines of a mail truck's. That was perhaps my first mistake. By mile five, I'm praying we can avoid getting a flat tire (it's no surprise that nearly every billboard we see is an advertisement for tires). We merge onto the Northern Highway and by mile 10 I'm wishing I'd worn a sturdier bra. If these are the best roads in Central America, I can only imagine what the highways must be like in Guatemala.
Don't get me wrong, this is a paved road. All of the five major highways in Belize are paved, yet they come with a generous supply of speed bumps, potholes, and local drivers who make a sport of passing on curves as though they're en route to the emergency room, only to pull over at a barbecue stand a mile ahead. But getting to just about any destination here requires taking access roads that make the surface of the moon look like a freshly Zambonied ice rink.
It doesn't help that we've only been in Belize a few hours and I've already managed to take us in the wrong direction. We were ostensibly on our way to the Maruba Resort Jungle Spa, about 33 miles north of Belize City—but somehow we've missed it. To our dismay, we now must take the Old Northern Highway, traveling south by southeast—30 miles in exactly the direction we came from.
The road is treacherous, and Ron, who hours earlier had mocked my supposed fear of the outdoors, is convinced we'll pop a tire at any moment and end up spending the night in the Jimmy without adequate "rations." He has a point. Night has fallen, there's no cell phone signal, and a constant swarm of insects veils our headlights. The only thing more primitive than the villages we passed an hour ago is my map, a colorful children's cartoon with more drawings of animals than names of towns. I'd assumed we could pick up a better map at the airport or rental car office, but every time I asked for one, a friendly Belizean would look at mine and say, "You won't find a better one than that. Where'd you get it, anyway?"
Just when Ron has begun to plan the intervals during which one of us will sleep while the other stands guard against jaguars, we see a pair of gates in the distance, flanked by two men and two giant tiki torches. Eureka! (Unless this is a mirage.) Sweaty and exhausted, we climb out of the Jimmy and are greeted by an attractive woman in a sarong, who ushers us into the reception area. With its thatched roof and vehemently "tropical" design, the place would be all very native and primal, except that the guests are dressed in formal (although, for the women, alarmingly skimpy) clothing and we're all illuminated by a black light. Any trace of white fabric is glowing fluorescently, including the lint on my shorts.

The team of Michael Thompson and Fuzzy Zoeller made the first big news of the CVS Caremark Charity Classic Monday, with an eagle on the par-4 sixth hole.
That team had been only 1-under through five holes, thus jumped to 3-under with the deuce on the 310-yard sixth. The pair also birdied 7 and 8 to get to 5-under and first place.
The event began 15 minutes late. The clinic held before play ran long, so all tee times were pushed back by 15 minutes. Reflecting the fact that pretournament ticket sales were up, the crowd looked larger than it has been in the last several years.


text: By Marie P. Grady Special to Reminder Publications Family. It is the building block of society as we know it, the world within which we learn to shape the larger one we will eventually live in. It s no wonder that President Barack Obama made family the central theme of his historic campaign and the foundation of his message about the need to rebuild America. Literacy. It is the dividing line between the audacity to hope, as one unelected King once observed, and the endless march to the end of the line. In these tough times, both the literate and those less fortunate have found their way to the unemployment line. But those without an education usually end up there sooner and stay there longer than many of us. Thanks to two new family literacy pilot programs funded by the state Department of Labor and Workforce Development in Springfield, some families will get a fighting chance. The Greater Springfield YMCA and Square One recently won a competitive proposal process for $30,000 in state funding each to offer comprehensive family literacy pilot programs, according to Maura Geary, who heads literacy initiatives for the Regional Employment Board of Hampden County Inc. The state investment couldn t have come at a more critical time. We know that education leads to a lifetime of earning potential for parents, Geary said. And those gains are transferred to young students. Geary points to a recent report from the Institute for Research on Poverty which determined that even a $1,000 increase in parental income translates into a six percent increase for their children on math and reading test scores. Now, more than ever, we need to address the continuum of educational needs necessary to build a better workforce for the city of Springfield, said Geary, a former public policy specialist for the United Way who also has been an adult literacy instructor. In addition to offering instruction to parents and children, the programs also will encourage literacy-rich homes and help parents to be the primary teachers and full partners in the education of their children. About 20 families will be served at an intergenerational teen parent program at the Y that also involves grandparents. Square One and the Massachusetts Career Development Institute (MCDI) will provide services to about 15 families, including parents enrolled at MCDI and children enrolled in early childhood education programs at Square One. The funding will allow the two organizations to integrate and intensify services and add shared literacy activities between parents and children. The pilot projects are part of a city workforce development plan that is based upon expanding literacy at all levels, including establishing a pilot universal pre-kindergarten program. Drafted by the Regional Employment Board with Mayor Domenic Sarno and community leaders, the plan got off the ground last August when Suzanne Bump, secretary of the state Department of Labor and Workforce Development, announced $1.3 million in preliminary funding. Geary said the support of Bump and the administration of Gov. Deval Patrick demonstrate a vision that defies the pessimism that flourishes in times of economic distress. Parents like Kaytlin Anderson attended a YMCA family literacy program last summer in the hopes of following her own vision toward a better life. Anderson was dreaming of a career in the medical field while she worked toward her GED. Since then, Anderson has obtained her GED and finished a semester at Springfield Technical Community College toward a degree in the field. Her success is among the reasons Sarah Dupuis, director of the program for teen parents, and her staff work so hard to help their students succeed. It s so exciting, said Dupuis. She s an inspiration. For Anderson, the inspiration to follow her dreams is her young daughter Gabriella. In the words a new president borrowed from a wise King, she gives her mother the audacity to believe in a world where all things are possible.
