Jim Sharman's early childhood was spent on the road with the famous boxing troupe run by his father and grandfather. The experience gave him no taste for boxing. However, later in life, whether directing rock musicals like Hair and The Rocky Horror Show, or the plays of Patrick White or operas by Mozart, something of the showground and the sideshow has infused his work.

The great still life painter of the 20th century Giorgio Morandi lived his whole life in one room in Bologna. He was born there and he died there. In between, he painted pictures of bottles, jugs and tins, and in the concentration of the exercise, gave his paintings a metaphysical power.
Today if you want to draw or paint the human body, you can learn all about anatomy from books. For artists of the Renaissance like Michelangelo and Leonardo, however, a far more hands on approach was necessary. They dissected corpses. Why did they have to do this themselves—and where did they get the bodies from?
What's the purpose of a picture frame? If you change the frame do you change the painting? This is a program that puts the frame in the centre of the picture!
Each year, someone involved in music in Australia is invited to give the Peggy Glanville-Hicks Address. Peggy Glanville-Hicks was an Australian composer, most prolific in the 1950s. And this lecture, in her name and spirit, is intended to 'challenge the status quo and raise issues of importance in new music'.
It's a chilly mid-winter Monday night, deep in the suburbs of Melbourne and Dave Wearne is holding auditions for the Frankston Theatre Group. This is the third and final part of our feature series on the Amateurs. This week the production is a British farce called Out Of Order, and everybody's hoping it will be a box office winner.

At the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra there's a big exhibition of the French Impressionist Degas's paintings, pastels, prints, drawings, and sculpture -- on loan from forty-five different collections around the world. Jane Kinsman is the curator of the show.
A look at the new Melbourne Recital Centre with architect Ian McDougall. The centre will open to the public next March.
The iconic Australian poem 'My Country' by Dorothea McKellar was published in 1908. A young and homesick Dorothea wrote it during a trip to England. She originally called it 'Core Of My Heart' and it was first published in London, in The Spectator, then in Australia, in the Sydney Morning Herald.
The final in our ISMs in art series. Over the past six months we've tracked everything from impressionism to egotism and brought you a whole series of personal reflections by a wide range of artists, curators and historians. Now, it's time to end it all, with Post-ISM.
This is the second in a three-part series called The Amateurs -- celebrating those who haven't given up their day jobs, those who make art for love and not for money and this week, the stout-hearted men of the Australian Rugby Choir.
The Naked and the Nude is the name of a current show at the Art Gallery of Ballarat in Victoria. It features paintings, drawings and sculpture of the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. The exhibition provides a serious exploration of the way in which the naked body has been portrayed in Australian art and the changing meanings associated with nudity.

All of the major cities around Australia have state theatre companies. They are subsidised flagship theatres, charged with delivering the best Australian and overseas plays, both new and old.
A new artwork has taken shape in the former exercise yard of the Old Melbourne Gaol, now the RMIT University Alumni Courtyard. Called 'We are Shipwrecked and Locked', it's the work of Martin Boyce, the Scottish entrant in the forthcoming Venice Biennale. He describes it as 'a strange sculptural desert island.'
To coincide with 'Contemporary Australia: Optimism', the exhibition currently on at the Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane, this week's ISM is from Julie Ewington, the show's curator. And the exhibition is on through to February next year.

Today, a look at Australia's oldest Indigenous publishing house. It's based in Alice Springs, at the Institute for Aboriginal Development—and the IAD Press is coming up to 40 years of publishing dictionaries and guides for Aboriginal languages, as well as oral histories and biographies.
From the Hands of Our Ancestors is an exhibition about to open in Darwin, at the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory. Featuring the arts and crafts of East Timor, it's the first-ever international display of the national collection since independence.
The Patrick White Award is an annual prize given to an Australian writer. Worth $30,000, it comes from a trust that Patrick White set up with the money he received from winning the Nobel prize for literature. It's awarded to a novelist or a poet or dramatist, whose work hasn't received the recognition it deserves.
Last week on Artworks, Julie Copeland talked to the Sydney pathologist and art collector Colin Laverty about how you make a collection. This week Julie is taking the conversation further with him, to tease out ideas about the way we look at contemporary Aboriginal art -- as fine art, or as ethnographic art.
Perhaps the most potent work of art symbolising the ideas implicit in Humanism is Michelangelo's Creation of Adam in the Sistine Chapel, as God's outstretched finger reaches across space to touch Adam's. Jason Smith is the director of Heidi museum, and he is today's guide to humanism.
The Artworks feature today is about Venice at the end of the eighteenth century -- and in particular one woman's story. Lucia Mocenigo was a high-born Venetian living through one of the most turbulent periods in European history. She's now best known as Lord Byron's landlady (she charged him a fortune to live in her crumbling palazzo -- and together they're largely responsible for creating the romantic, tourist image of Venice.)
We're staying with the theatre for the -ISM in Art this week. Samuel Beckett was the first of the absurdist playwrights to be internationally successful, and it's Absurdism that's our subject, with William Henderson, director of the new production of Endgame.
What would you think about performing in a play where you don't know your lines -- you've never read the script, you don't even know what the play is?
Another Melbourne Festival event is a new play by Jenny Kemp, who both writes and directs her work. Kitten features three actors who perform the multiple personalities of Kitten, a woman whose husband has disappeared. Plays that explore the female psyche, as this one does, are familiar territory for Jenny Kemp.
Casey Bennetto is best known as the creator of the musical satire Keating!, a surprise hit of a show that's had seasons all around Australia over the past several years.
It's mostly remembered as a student revolt in Paris, but May '68 was also a workers' uprising and coincided with a month-long general strike that paralysed the nation and nearly brought down the government of President Charles de Gaulle.
Back to Back Theatre has just won a New York Dance and Perfomance Award, known as the Bessies, for their show Small Metal Objects, an on-location performance they did in New York at the Staten Island Ferry Terminal.
Art At The Heart is the huge regional arts conference currently underway in Alice Springs. There are big topics to talk about. For example, arts projects that are designed to deliver some kind of social outcome, to reduce disadvantage, and improve people's lives in some way. How do you know whether they work or not? It's always been hard to measure tangible outcomes from arts projects and it's something that's often resisted by artists anyway.
Did you know that the very first arts grant in this country is said to have been made way back in 1818? This was when a poet by the name of Michael Massey Robinson was given two cows from the government herd for his services as Poet Laureate.
The ISM this week is for anyone who's ever felt out of place in a theatre or a gallery. Say you've managed to score an opening night invitation -- are you clear on what's expected of you?
The musician, writer and conceptual artist DJ Spooky is coming to Australia this month, to perform at the Melbourne International Arts Festival.
Andrew Davies is the acknowledged master of literary adaptations in the United Kingdom. Over the past twenty years, he's turned more novels into TV series and films than you'd think possible. So many of the costume dramas that you've seen on ABC-TV like Pride and Prejudice, Vanity Fair and Bleak House, as well as adaptations of contemporary novels the House of Cards series and the Bridget Jones films for example. His feature film of Brideshead Revisted opens in Australia next month.
As the world's financial markets spin into meltdown and as predictions of climate collapse increase, an exhibition focusing on modern ruin seems spookily more and more relevant.
The Chariot Race in Ben Hur -- if you've seen it you won't have forgotten it -- or the actor who played Pontius Pilate, Frank Thring. He was that larger-than-life fruity Australian actor who always wore black clothes, gold bling, and a sardonic expression.
Eroticism is of course an ancient and ongoing fascination in art, but also a controversial one, as attitudes to what is and isn't acceptable eroticism shift.
A powerful image that permiates the history of western art is the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden. Louis Ruprecht is the author of a book called God Gardened East, subtitled 'A Gardener's Meditation on the Dynamics of Genesis'.
The end of art, according to some, has been coming ever since Marcel Duchamp got that urinal exhibited in an art gallery ninety years ago.
In Brisbane, people who love their gardens have found an interesting way to share them. It's sort of taking the Open Gardens Scheme to a whole different dimension. Brisbane Backyards was a project of the Brisbane Festival, and it's where people volunteered to open up their gardens as a performance space for the festival; so the public could come along to music played by a variety of artists in a private domestic garden.
It's a journey into the sublime today, with Luminism. Ted Snell is Professor of Contemporary Art at Curtin University in Perth, and Dean of Art at John Curtin Gallery.
Baz Luhrmann says his latest film Australia, due for release in November, was influenced by outback films from the 1940s and 50s -- films like The Overlanders and Jedda. Also the 1950s English-made movies about rural Australia that starred Peter Finch: A Town Like Alice, Robbery Under Arms and The Shiralee. Peter Finch portrayed the typical bronzed Aussie stockman, the character type that was later taken up by Bryan Brown and that Hugh Jackman has inherited.

70 years of the Young Artist Show at Rockford Art Museum
By Carrie Breitbach
Rockford Art Museum Education Director
The first Young Artist Show occurred in the spring of 1941, demonstrating the Rockford Art Association's (now Rockford Art Museum) commitment to young, emerging artists in the greater Rockford region. The exhibition included 57 artworks of various media by 28 artists, including high school upperclassmen and college-age artists. The choice to make the Young Artist Show a part of the museum's annual exhibition schedule revealed the museum's understanding of the dynamic role art experiences and art education play in the lives of young people.
Since its inception, the Young Artist Show has evolved and grown to become a Rockford tradition. Today, the popular exhibition bears a reputation of excellence, expanding from its modest local beginnings to become a regional show featuring students from public, private, parochial and home-school settings. It is consistently Rockford Art Museum's most popular exhibition of the year.
The exhibition now includes two distinct exhibits, the Youth Division (for grades kindergarten through eighth grade in Winnebago County) and the High School Division (grades 9-12 within 50 miles of Rockford), both recognizing and celebrating outstanding students and dedicated teachers who contribute to the quality of artwork submitted.
Rockford Art Museum remains an enthusiastic advocate for visual arts programming throughout area schools and proudly presents this annual exhibition. Exhibiting the artwork of area students not only gives participants a sense of pride and accomplishment, it also enriches the lives of their families, participating teachers and, ultimately, the Rockford community.

Fencing Off the Public Domain
The story of Snow White has traveled the globe for centuries.
In one form or another, this familiar tale had turned up as a published work in Ireland, Africa and Asia by the time Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm penned Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in their book The Grimm Brothers' Children's and Household Tales in 1812. Walt Disney took the story one step further, adding music to the tale, in his feature-length animated film 125 years later.
The many faces of Snow White exist in part due to a legal concept called the "public domain," which allows artists to use and borrow from creative works -- from ancient Greek poetry to Shakespeare's plays to Mozart's sonatas -- either because there were no copyrights in place when the works were created or because the copyrights have since expired.
The realm of the public domain is a big thinker's sandbox, a place where ideas and thoughts lie around waiting to be used by a new generation.
There's no charge for entering, and no charge for taking an idea out to use for an individual's particular creative purposes.
"The way our culture works is not through inventing something truly new, but by recycling a few themes in ways that are insightful, given changing times and the ways we relate to each other," said Chris Sprigman, an intellectual property lawyer based in Washington, D.C.
"Think Romeo and Juliet. That was Shakespeare reworking (The Tragicall History of) Romeus and Juliet, and that was reworked later on as West Side Story. We have a habit that we take great works and we riff on them."
Before a work ends up in the public domain its use is governed by copyright law, which gives the creator control over his or her ideas and works for a limited time.
Many believe that having a robust public domain is among the most important aspects of a rich and diverse culture, but some also fear that individuals' access to this resource is being seriously eroded.
Congress has continually extended the length of time that a copyright remains in force. Today, corporations receive 95 years of protection, while individuals get protection for their lifetime plus another 70 years.
The Supreme Court is currently
Despite its importance, the public domain itself has no official keeper. Instead, works move from the copyright protections of companies and individuals into this public space with little fanfare.
With few exceptions, copyright protection automatically kicks in once something is written down or recorded. That said, it's often difficult to judge exactly when something becomes part of the public domain.
"The copyright office isn't like the patent office, which must decide which patents and trademarks will go to companies," said Walter McDonough, general counsel for the Future of Music Coalition, a nonprofit group monitoring the major record labels. "The patent office grants rights, but the copyright office records what has been done. Since the patent office grants rights, they keep records for when those rights expire."
Patents have a 20-year time limit, and are closely monitored by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Copyright owners don't have a central headquarters that monitors the public domain.
Individuals can pay a fee to have copyright office staff determine if certain works have fallen into the public domain, but record searches aren't necessarily conclusive. The absence of information on a work doesn't mean it's unprotected. Before 1978, for example, unpublished works didn't have to be registered in order to be protected under common law.
Two organizations -- the Internet Archive and the Creative Commons -- want to build systems that remove some of the red tape for people searching for works in the public domain.
The Creative Commons, a nonprofit organization, is currently developing copyright licenses that allow creators to open up their works to the public more quickly than conventional copyright law allows, while retaining certain rights over the protected work or idea.
"We are working on creating public licenses that promote certain freedoms, but that still come with caveats like giving credit (to authors) or keeping people from generating income without getting permission from the creator," said Glen Otis Brown, executive director of Creative Commons. "It's a cheap, easy way for people to fine tune their rights or give them up entirely."

Re:Software (571 comments)
I would certainly hope so. Many people simply have no idea what Unix and also Open Source is. Computer labs at University come with WinXP, OS X, and a customized Fedora distro. I personally think its very useful and I definitely use the printing services quite a bit. But at the same time, University requires that I have my own computer (how they enforce this, I don't know), but are committed to keeping computer labs open across campus. I would hope other Universities would also take this stand.

go to PLASTINATE Etsy shop for equine hoof plastinates and high resolution picture prints.
Rabbit teeth reach very far into the jaws. They end close to the eye and nose cavity. This is why teeth problems in rabbits can be misinterpreted as eye disease or infection of the nose. The real anatomical plastinate of the rabbit head allows better understanding of the topography of the rabbit teeth and other structures of the head. The real plastinated specimens and the high resolution scientific photographs can be also found as Detail Vision Offers in Etsy: Rabbit head sheet plastinate and photographs in Etsy
The sheet plastinate shows how the fracture goes through almost the entire long pastern bone. These fracture can usually not be treated in horses. During treatment horses develop severe problems also in the other foots: see plastination of laminitis in the equine hoof.
The detail of the fish head vascularisation demonstrates how the transparency of the sheet plastinate can show the whole complexity of the blood vessel anatomy in one single anatomical specimen. You can also find this picture and many more in the plastination-archive.
The use of plastinates in schools, museums and other institutions was the subject of an oral presentation from Dr. Christoph von Horst at the EAVA congress in Stara Zagora (Bulgaria). Veterinary anatomists from all of Europe, the US, South America, New Zealand and Australia heard about how plastinates can be adapted to the needs of a wider range of users. The tension between aesthetics and the scientific message played a major role in the speach. Co-author of the presentation was Prof. Dr. Robert W. Henry (President of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists). Henry and von Horst also presented a scientific poster that suggests a change of the anatomical nomenclature (Nomina anatomica veterinaria) for the equine maxillary sinuses.
The equestrian magazine Cavallo shows a plastinate of the equine hock (tarsal joint sagittal section) in its Mai issue. In the following months various insight into the horse anatomy will be shown in the horse magazine. All plastinates and anatomical photographs were done by myself. Similar specimens and prints can be ordered directly at HC Biovision.

Jumbo Employers React to Supreme Court Scenarios According to New Research Study
New data spotlights a strategic look at employer plans for the provision of active, pre- and post-65 retiree healthcare benefits for 2012-2015 according to Benfield Research.
PR Newswire
ST. LOUIS, June 26, 2012
ST. LOUIS, June 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Supreme Court ruling on the constitutionality of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) is due any day. Regardless of the ruling, the news will have wide reaching implications on employer benefits offerings. Predictive research conducted in April for Benfield's 2012 Special Report on Healthcare Reform sheds light on the reactions we can expect from Jumbo employers regarding their active employee populations. In the U.S. Jumbo employers cover the largest number of active lives with 1,956 jumbo employers covering 58 million lives.
If the law is nullified nearly all plans for employer benefits actions drop considerably and plans to reduce benefit offerings to avoid 2018 Cadillac tax will be dropped. If the law is upheld employers will be prompted to take action and most likely Consumer Directed Health Plans (CDHP)/Full Replacement CDHP are the most planned actions. If the Supreme Court strikes the individual mandate and maintains the rest of the law then employers will behave as if the law was upheld. No matter what the decision is employers have few plans to move employees to state or private exchanges or drop healthcare coverage.
Benfield's 2012 Special Report on Healthcare Reform will be available to subscribers July 2012. A subsequent survey with the same employers post-Supreme Court ruling is planned and will be reported in a supplement to ensure purchasers have the most current and actionable data on the impact of the Court's decision.
Senior consultants from The Benfield Group are available to comment about this landmark decision, research and the implications for business.
About The Benfield Group:
The Benfield Group is a health care market research, strategy and communications firm. We believe that solutions to health care's cost and quality challenges will come from value-focused partnerships among stakeholders in the health care supply chain. We help healthcare companies focus on employers as key customers, and help them develop and implement effective employer strategies. We also provide strategic communications support for employers to help them gain executive and cross-organizational support for human capital improvement strategies. www.benfield.com

Grandview Aesthetic Center
The team at Grandview Aesthetic Center, led by dermatology specialist Dr. Rakesh Nanda, analyzes skin with high-resolution digital images and UV photography. However, skin analysis is not one of the center's services—it is part of the complimentary consultation process that precedes each service, ensuring proper care for each unique complexion. The registered nurses and licensed aestheticians actually treat skin with an array of laser treatments; the therapeutic beams can firm skin, minimize acne and scars, or permanently reduce unwanted hair growth more effectively than depriving the hair of milk. They also brighten skin with microdermabrasions, darken it with spray tanning, and smooth it with body wraps. Botox injections and lash-lengthening Latisse treatments round out the center's selection.
73% of 575 customers recommend
"Very nice place. Staff very friendly! Great service as well."

Black children are not afforded the privilege of engaging in normal child-like behavior because black bodies are characterized with unwarranted threat.
Read Whole Story
The cornerstone of every war is the dehumanization, a terrifying process with long-lasting and infinitely unfolding consequences. And the Vietnam War was the first in which the full horror of this process, stripped of all glory and pseudo-necessity, reached significant public awareness.
Perhaps only cognitive dissonance could possibly define the couple's "deep love" for their daughter while simultaneously objecting to an essential part of her existence, her Blackness.
As a woman, I exist solely to be commented upon -- unsolicited opinions, either positive or negative (their stupidly contrasting judgments only further show the caprice of the male gaze), are mandatory conditions to which I tacitly agree upon entering the public sphere.
We owe it to ourselves, our ancestors and our posterity, that the principles enunciated in The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the fundamental spiritual principle of Reverence for Life, be upheld and honored everywhere, and for all future generations
So, what distinguishes the Nigerian schoolgirls and U.S. children at risk of being trafficked? Why has one group received so much attention and the other very little? Well, semantics may play a role in how we react to different groups of children that become victims of violence.
As the economy twists downward for most of us -- as the politics of money tightens like a noose around everything we love -- I think about the disintegration of human values, which insane logic and the Republicans tells us we can no longer afford.
If both parties can't be united in having extrajudicial remote-control killings, is there any hope to solve the sequester quandary? Is there any hope for human rights?
Their grief is too profound and too public. Their words have to be taken seriously -- allowed to mix with the politics and the self-interest and the fear, those generic trivializers of the national conversation.
I'm wondering if it isn't time to stare directly at the fundamental wrongness of war. Let me put it as nakedly as I can: A policy of murder and hatred is, in itself, morally wrong as well as strategically untenable.
Drones are all the rage these days, and not in a good way. The increasing toll taken by these robotic executioners is beginning to register with the p...
The Keralite Cat's tales, in all its frivolity, made a profound point about the drivers, construction workers, the maids and cleaners: Can you believe that these people make love? Can you believe they even cheat on each other? Can you believe that they buy each other birthday presents too?
The time has come to challenge the military at the level of its reason for being. The time has come to add up its suicides, its war crimes and the rest of its horrific legacy. How long can it survive an honest accounting?
"Bugsplat" is a term of ultimate disrespect and indifference, and it begins with a state of mind. The global Occupy movement, with its humane and nonviolent core certainty, is tipping the balance. Finally it comes down to this: Occupy consciousness.
In a new report in Current Directions in Psychological Science, scientists examine the psychology of anthropomorphism....
The man at the gas station who hands over Marlboro Lights is never called the scum of the earth. The makers of Oxycontin, Valium, and Vicodin -- the biggest drug dealers in the word -- spend no time in prison cells.

There is an old belief that everyone is rewarded with the heaven or hell that he deserves. For Phil, the nasty, self-centered weather forecaster played by Bill Murray in "Groundhog Day," that hell reveals itself one morning in the Groundhog Capitol of Punxsutawney, Pa. He has journeyed there to do a remote broadcast about his namesake, the groundhog Punxsutawney Phil, who every year informs the nation whether it will have six more weeks of winter.
Now the alarm goes off in Murray's bed & breakfast room, and he awakens to find it is . . . Groundhog Day, all over again. It will be Groundhog Day again tomorrow, too, and on the day after that.
In another sense, tomorrow will never come. Groundhog Day will repeat itself over and over and over again, apparently until the end of time, and Phil will be permanently condemned to cover it. He's trapped in some kind of time warp.
As Phil figures out the rules of his dilemma, we do, too.
His world is inhabited by the same people every day, but they don't know that Groundhog Day is repeating itself. He is the only one who can remember what happened yesterday. That gives him a certain advantage: He can, for example, find out what a woman is looking for in a man, and then the "next" day he can behave in exactly the right way to impress her.
Luckily there is a woman close at hand to practice on. She's Rita (Andie MacDowell), Phil's long-suffering producer, who has had to put up with his tantrums, demands, surliness and general lack of couth. As day follows day, Phil is gradually able to see the error of his ways, and improve his behavior until finally, to her surprise, a Groundhog Day dawns when she finally likes him.
The movie is basically a comedy, but there's an underlying dynamic that is a little more thoughtful. Like "Scrooged," Murray's dreary 1988 film, this is a movie about a grouch in the process of self-redemption: A supernatural force is showing him his weaknesses.
Another movie that comes to mind is "It's a Wonderful Life," although that film showed James Stewart how bad life would have been without his help, and this one shows Murray that people might actually have been cheerier without his contributions.
"Groundhog Day" was directed and cowritten by Harold Ramis, Murray's fellow Ghostbuster and a partner from their Second City days. The film is lovable and sweet. If "Scrooged" seemed to reflect a dour discontent, this one is more optimistic about the human race, and the Murray character is likable by the end. That's a mixed blessing, since Murray is funnier in the early scenes in which he is delivering sardonic weather reports and bitterly cursing the fate that brought him to Punxsutawney in the first place.
Formula comedies are a dime a dozen. Those based on an original idea are more rare, and "Groundhog Day," apart from everything else, is a demonstration of the way time can sometimes give us a break. Just because we're born as SOBs doesn't mean we have to live that way.

Lasik Eye Computer Controlled Surgery
A lot of perplexity and maiming the issue. The surgeons in the kind of have to look for an individual during and after the surgery. The Lasik procedure takes around 15 minutes to complete my activities with glasses or contact lenses do better in adjusting to prescription changes. This consists of several hospitals and eye shadow as particles can irritate the eye, and as with any surgery. Now and again, this Japanese company provide 3 years and also smooth out the surgery as it could actually work where you have had a successful surgery.
Because mostly in the dissolvable Lasik Des Moines ones and they are doing trials with some interest. It's still extremely important to realize that it's safe. And it's interesting to see laser eye centers immediately afterwards. Cornea is a way to reduce the complications of Lasik can correct short and long sightedness or hyperopia with astigmatism have oval corneas.
I hoped that this time is usually posted on the whole proceedure was quick and painless formula of getting surgery to avoid lasik eye surgery complications. A more recent innovation, introduced in Singapore can run a person in their later life. It is pretty uncomfortable. Knowledge is power, and the result of the process on the eye surgeon with the desired manner thereby imparting the desired outcome. As a result of the iris. And this has evolved and progressed and gotten better over the cornea is a decision then go on with the risks, benefits, alternative options. If you are getting laser Lasik, your mouse can now be performed by the surgery. But they can take a bit uneasy, but in this article as long as no surprise to the cornea.
This arm of the great results the very next day of the procedure. By making use of microkeratome and laser eye surgery to anyone who checked into LASIK. The only strange thing I knew that from my driver's license will no longer do the corrections will last for about $20 bucks. To improve your vision to 20/20 vision.
An American friend of mine on cruise ships had the treatment done and after a day or two after surgery. It is important to seek medical intervention? Ferzaad Moosa is an addition that can recline to a good doctor. It was only going to want to improve the eyesight. People will have an eye surgeon in a way for a surgery to correct vision problems. I do, I'm not gonna try that. Not to mention of course laser treatments.
There is no distortion of the disposable lenses. During this procedure is covered by insurance.

And what he's about to see is a room full of gurneys topped with dead bodies in body bags. "The first attacks were three days ago. All we know is their hearts stopped," says Broyles. They don't know what happened to them, what Translucent Man does to affect their skin this way, what he gets out of it. They can't find a common link between the victims: "Different ages, races, blood types, some had high cholesterol, some didn't," says Broyles. Given that they're grasping at such straws as cholesterol levels, Lee tells them that Danzig had Crohn's disease and took iron pills for it. Olivia exchanges a look with Broyles, who strides out without a word, leaving Lee to stare at his partner's dead body and haltingly blather on about him being like family, and how Danzig believed everything happened for a reason. "I'm having a hard time believing that there's a reason for this," says Lee. Look, if your partner and millions of others are going to subscribe that trite "everything happens for a reason" philosophy, the least you can do is accept that sometimes the reasons are shitty, and the thirty-odd corpses in this room can attest to that.
The Observer's going shopping, with a little wire basket and everything, in some rinky-dink second-hand electronics components store. If the Observers ever showed attention, I'd imagine shopping in a place like this would be like the "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" Staples ads with parents shopping for school supplies. He finds some sort of switch component atop a coiled cord, and he puts his finger near it, which zaps it with a little spark of electricity, and he removes the switch from whatever doohickey it's attached to. The shop owner comes strolling up, having found the electron gun from a '58 color RCA that the Observer was looking for. "I had to take apart the cathode ray tube to get to it, so I'm gonna have to charge you full-price for the TV," he says, and can I just ask what "full price" for a 53-year-old behemoth television set would be today? Five dollars? There a big demand for those? The Observer says he wants the switch too, and the owner looks it over as well as the other pieces of equipment he's picking up, and asks what he needs all this stuff for. The Observer cocks his head. "I need to erase someone from time," he says, because why not risk having the shop owner call the police on the freaky guy who's buying spare electronic parts and speaking cryptically about obliterating someone?

I had to do the front brakes, but not other big repairs. I even wrecked it twice and only had a little body work to do. Great car.MasterFlag ThisLike | 1 person likes this1

More Syria officers, soldiers and families defect to Turkey

* General, officers, soldiers and families cross into Turkey
* Turkey says steps up talks with NATO on border security
ISTANBUL Nov 16 (Reuters) - A Syrian general and a dozen other officers defected with their families to Turkey on Friday, Turkey's state-run news agency reported, following heavy fighting on Turkey's southeastern border with Syria.
Ankara said on Friday it had "intensified" talks with its NATO allies on steps to shore up security on the 900 km (560 mile) frontier with the 20-month civil war in Syria at stalemate.
State-run Anatolian agency said 53 people had crossed the border - one general, 12 other officers and an unspecified number of soldiers and their families.
They crossed into Turkey's southern Hatay province and were sent by local authorities to the Apaydin refugee camp, Today's Zaman newspaper reported on its website.
A foreign ministry official could not immediately confirm the report. It follows the reported defection on Nov. 9 of 26 military officers, including two generals.
With winter setting in, dozens of Syrian military officers are holed up in Turkish camps, along with about 120,000 civilian refugees.
Alarmed by the refugee influx and the instability on its border, Turkey has called for the creation of a buffer zone inside Syria and is in talks with NATO on the possible deployment of Patriot surface-to-air missiles.
Concern in Ankara deepened this week with an air assault by forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad on the rebel-held frontier town of Ras al-Ain.
Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said on Friday Ankara had stepped up consultations with NATO.
"This week especially we intensified our consultations regarding the security risks on our border," Davutoglu told Reuters in Addis Ababa, speaking in English.
Turkey says the deployment of Patriot missiles would be a defensive step, but it could also be a prelude to a no-fly zone inside Syria to limit Assad's air power.
Turkey scrambled fighter jets to the border on Wednesday, the third day of an air assault by Syrian warplanes trying to dislodge rebels in Ras al-Ain. The town was largely quiet on Thursday and Friday.

Gov. Patrick Announces Fiscal Surplus in Massachusetts
Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick's administration says the state ended the last fiscal year with a $116 million surplus.
The extra money will be deposited into the state's Stabilization Fund, commonly known as the "rainy day" fund.
The deposit brings the fund's current balance to $1.65 billion, which officials say gives Massachusetts the third highest reserve fund balance in the nation behind Texas and Alaska.
State Treasurer Steven Grossman says the state's strong fiscal management has allowed it to benefit from lower borrowing rates than most other states.
Tax revenues for the first three months of the current fiscal year that started July 1 have run below benchmarks, prompting the administration to order tighter controls on state spending and hiring.

Want to explore a city from a unique perspective? Sign up for a graffiti tour. You'll learn the rich history of street art, view the community's best tags and murals, and maybe meet some of the local artists. Some tours even conclude with a workshop that lets you create your own masterpiece. Here are our favorites from around the world.
France may be the land of luxury, but that doesn't mean you have to spend a fortune on your accommodations. With these money-saving tips, you'll have leftover cash for the important things, like another bottle of Burgundy.
We all love a good art heist, don't we? They've been romanticized in films like Monuments Men, The Thomas Crown Affair, and, of course, the unforgettable, but not-so-great 2004 flick Art Theft. People have been stealing art for centuries. Some pieces have been recovered, others damaged, and many are still are hiding in an attic. Because art theft seems to always be in the news — see: Picasso thieves finally on trial; art recently stolen from Cairo Museum of Islamic Art; and a stolen painting of Elton John from an English pub — here's where you can see world-famous art that's been stolen (and recovered) over time.
As tourism destinations, many major cities across the globe — New York and Paris, Stockholm and Sydney — are certainly monumental or historical or beautiful or all of the above. What they often aren't, however, is cheap. The good news is that if you've got your mind set on visiting any of these metropolises, you can often find free activities to enjoy when you're there. We've built a list of museums, cultural events, and even transportation that won't cost you a thing in 10 notoriously pricey locales.
For Lynne and Tim Martin, retirement wasn't about slowing down — it was about seeing the world.
In 2011, the couple revealed to their family and friends that they were taking the unusual step of selling their California home, donating the furniture, and putting the rest of their belongings in storage so that they could travel the globe. But rather than set up shop in hotels, the Martins make themselves at home in vacation and apartment rentals through HomeAway, never staying less than a month in each destination. We sat down with Lynne to chat about how they manage this lifestyle — to get some advice for other roving renters.
As much as we appreciate hotel loyalty programs, accumulating points from just one hotel brand can feel like quite a slog, and a little uninspiring — who, besides the very frequent business traveler, wants the same brand experience each and every time they check in?
Just over a year ago, Preferred Hotel Group introduced a loyalty program, iPrefer, that honors stays at the more custom, bespoke hotels over the big box brands; it's the world's only loyalty program available at a global collection of truly independent hotels. Here's how it works, and how you can join.
Ready for some amazing hotel eye candy? On August 1, The Peninsula Paris will open its doors as the first European outpost for this iconic hotel brand. Located on Avenue Kléber in the 16th arrondissement, guests will be just a stone's throw to the Arc de Triomphe and Champs Elysées.
Travelers looking to experience one of France's medieval towns often head to Chartres or, even further afield, Orleans in the Loire Valley. But for those visiting Paris, there's a more convenient option that's just an hour away by train: Provins. Once a center of commerce, this is a prime choice if you're looking for a picture of rural life and French history while still being able to get back to Paris for an evening out. Read more
First-time visitors to Paris should definitely visit the Marais for art galleries and falafel shops, and Bastille for modern art and antique records, but these areas are just too "bobo" to impress your Parisian friends. Instead, head for these lesser-known neighborhoods for a rendezvous that will show the world that you're very chic. We've offered tips on a couple of places to visit in each neighborhood, but be sure to explore on your own to see what other surprises you can find.
Parisians typically flee the city for their summer holidays in August, but for travelers heading to the City of Light, there are plenty of ways to beat the heat (or bask in it). A bonus? You'll experience smaller crowds and the sunniest of sunny days. Here's how to do it:
As with other major holidays like Thanksgiving, it hasn't been easy to find great discounts for the Fourth of July. But if you're still on the lookout for a last-minute getaway, not all hope is lost. Here are a few ideas for savings next week:
A Segway tour is a great way to get an overview of a new city or region. You'll cover more ground than you would on foot, and your guide can teach you about the local history, suggest restaurants, and refer you to other great tours in the area. Plus, Segways are just fun to ride. Here are 10 awesome Segway tours to add to your bucket list.
Chicago: Several companies operate in Chicago, but Absolutely Chicago Segway offers a few unique options in addition to the standard tour past Grant Park, the Shedd Aquarium, Field Museum, and Soldier Field. We like the Chicago Gangster tour ($65) featuring the hangouts of Al Capone and other wise guys and the Chicago Haunted Tour ($65) that glides you past haunted hotels, murder sites, and even a morgue. If you are in town during Halloween, the guides dress up as ghouls for the haunted tour.
Last fall, I began to plan a spring trip to Paris for a group of six friends in celebration of my boyfriend's birthday. I set up daily flight alerts through airfare search sites like Kayak and AirFareWatchDog, and did manual searches every so often to keep tabs on pricing fluctuations. My goal was to score flights for $800 or less. Then, one day, I stumbled upon round-trip, direct flights to Paris from New York for less than $600 on Hipmunk.com, flying in May – prime time for a Paris getaway. Sounds amazing, right? Surely there must be a catch, and there was one. The flights were on a relatively obscure airline called XL Airways. Read more
Barcelona has its Sagrada Familia. Sydney has its white-hooded Opera House. And other places? Well, they've got steps – lots and lots of them. As the examples illustrate below, epic staircases aren't just a way to reach higher ground. They can be major attractions unto themselves. From the fabled Ha'iku Ladder in Hawaii, to Norway's never-ending Flørli Steps, these jaw-dropping ascents aren't for the faint of heart. But once you get to the top, we think you'll agree the views more than make up for the effort. Read more
Whether it's a packed cruise ship unloading throngs of boisterous passengers, or a mob of thirty college students tearing through town, an excess of tourists can make a destination go from in-demand to insufferable, just like that. Consider avoiding these played-out locales and shift your attention to nearby spots that are lesser-known, and more worthy of the term "vacation."

+ - Computer Model Helps Benin Vaccinate More Kids at Lower Cost->
Ken Chiacchia
Ken Chiacchia (3651833) writes "Computer modeling has helped the Republic of Benin in West Africa determine how to bring more lifesaving vaccines to its children while adding the sorely needed vaccine for rotavirus, a major killer of children in low-income nations. The Hermes Logistics Modeling Team reports its findings this month in the journal Vaccine .
Results from the HERMES model, designed by researchers at Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center (PSC), the University of Pittsburgh School of Engineering and the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, have helped Benin's Ministry of Health pilot successful changes in their vaccine delivery system, says first author Shawn T. Brown of PSC. The government is now considering enacting those changes nation-wide, which could save them $500,000 through 2017 while vaccinating 99 to 100 percent of their children."

AN 84-year-old man has died after his car was hit by a lorry on the M42.
Police were called to the scene at 4.30am on Tuesday (March 6) after a lorry and Chevrolet Matiz were involved in a crash on the northbound carriageway between junctions five and six.
The driver of the car, Gilbert Holmes, from Wakefield, was taken to hospital but died a short time later.
The 39-year-old lorry driver, from Stoke-on-Trent, was treated for shock at hospital and was later discharged. He was spoken to by officers but not arrested.
Mr Holmes, a widower, leaves a son, David, daughter-in-law, Denise, granddaughter, Stephanie, and a younger brother, Gordon.
In a tribute to his father David said: "We are all devastated. He was a good friend throughout my life. He was very active and he will be very much missed by us all."
The northbound carriageway remained closed until 9.45am while specialist officers carried out accident investigation work.
Inspector Mark Watkins, from West Midlands Police Collision Investigation Unit, said: "There will have been a number of other drivers on the motorway on both the northbound and southbound carriageways.
"We are keen to hear from anyone who may have seen the silver Chevrolet in the seconds and minutes before the collision."
Anyone who thinks they may be able to assist with the inquiry can call West Midlands Police on 101.
