Motorsports Movie Unfinished: Steve McQueen's "Day of the Champion"
My previous blog post was about motorsports movies, how the reel world portrayed the real world of auto racing.
This one is about what I guess is an un-reel subject – the motorsports movie that Steve McQueen started and the studio stopped, though not until after a million feet of footage had been shot!
The movie was "Day of the Champion," and would have been McQueen's take on Grand Prix racing.
In the new book "Steve McQueen: A Tribute to the King of Cool" (edited by Marshall Terrill and published by Dalton Watson Fine Books of Deerfield, Illinois), Robert Relyea, who worked for McQueen's Solar Productions, writes about the race -- John Frankenheimer and MGM vs. McQueen and Warner Bros. -- to produce a movie with Grand Prix racing as its theme.
"No one in Hollywood wants to make a movie on the same subject, at the same time, as another studio – especially about racing," Relyea writes. "There might be enough of an audience for one film, but the market could not bear two. It became an ugly fight to see who could complete their film first."
How's this for ugly: While McQueen was off finishing the filming of "The Sand Pebbles," McQueen's neighbor, James Garner, was cast as the star of Frankenheimer's movie, "Grand Prix." When "Grand Prix" raced into theaters, "Day of the Champion" was put on the shelf (but wouldn't you love to see the footage that was shot?).
Relyea writes that when "Grand Prix" took the checkered flag, McQueen didn't talk to Garner for nearly two years!
If there's a happy Hollywood ending to this tale, it's that a few years later, McQueen did make a movie about motorsports, the much revered 1971 film "Le Mans."

Dan Easton, publisher of the Victoria Advocate, has accepted chairmanship of the 2013 Victoria County United Way Community Campaign, according to a news release from the United Way.
"Dan has served on the boards of several nonprofit organizations and brings the passion, commitment and leadership needed to lead a successful campaign in challenging times," said Jennifer Yancey, chairwoman of the United Way board of directors.
Easton joins a long list of distinguished community leaders who have led the United Way campaign over the years, according to the news release.
Easton represents the third generation of ownership at the Victoria Advocate.
Before his role at the Advocate, Easton was vice president of operations for Inquisite, an Austin-based software startup.
Easton is a native Texan - born in Houston, raised in South Texas - and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in chemical engineering from Texas A&M University in 1995.
He has been married to Camille for 15 years and has two children - James, 13, and Elaine, 10.
In accepting the leadership role, Easton said, "I want families in our community to have the things we want for our own families: good jobs with good wages, safe and affordable housing, success for our children and financial stability.
"Our economy is on the upswing, new businesses have moved into our community, and people want to be part of the solution to make Victoria, DeWitt and Lavaca counties a better place to live."
He added the campaign is about like-minded people standing shoulder to shoulder with their neighbors to do something positive and be part of the answer.
Easton said the goals of the 2013 campaign are simple: to reach out to every person and company in the community to help children realize their potential, develop strong families and safe neighborhoods, help seniors sustain their independence and support those who are rebuilding their lives.
"We will do what Victorians have always done, demonstrate our strength of generous giving of our time, talents and gifts."
The Victoria County United Way 2013 campaign kicks off with its annual Day of Caring on Sept. 12.

Making Apple Butter
Against all odds and the forewarning of my arborist, my apple tree is alive. I can't tell you how happy this makes me. When I was told three years ago that I needed to cut down my tree because it had fire blight, an invasive disease that would kill the bark and limbs of the plant, I was more than sad. To some, an apple tree is just another plant in their yard, but to me, my apple tree meant (and still means) much more.
I love my apple tree. Obviously, there are the crisp fresh apples it produces, which I am very fond of. From fresh apple pies and cakes to apple syrup and butter, I have tried to make the most of the fruit my tree ekes out each year. Yet even without the fruit I would still love the blossoms that seem to abruptly arrive in a burst of pink each spring, and the family of birds that nests there — just outside my family room window. I love the shady patio that is protected from the mid-day sun by those craggy limbs full of green leaves and the privacy they provide from my neighbor's yard. My tree also reminds me that apples are not all Fuji, Braeburn, and Granny Smith. You see the apples that grow on my tree seem to be some sort of heirloom variety that is not sold in stores. These trees appear on almost every lot in my neighborhood, but I've never seen apples like them in grocery stores or farmers' markets. My neighborhood is old (coming up on 100 years) and who knows when these trees were planted. I'm guessing in the 70s, but maybe the seeds that started them were here earlier. Who knows. Both the time when they were planted and the name of this apple seem to be a mystery, yet what is evident is the presence of this forgotten varietal.
Yes, I can get very sentimental about my tree.
So this year, instead of mourning the loss of my tree — as I've been expecting to do for quite a while now — I instead happily made my yearly supply of apple butter. Although this jam takes hours to simmer, the preparation is really quite simple. Apples are full of natural pectin, so you never have to worry about it setting or firming up. Just peel, core, chop, cook and can.
Ever since my tree got its death sentence, I've really grown to appreciate everything about it. When I sit in its shade, I enjoy the cool breeze a little more, and when I take a bite of apple butter I taste the sweet caramelized flavors more intently. It's a good reminder to appreciate what you have, when you have it, because you just never know, from season to season, what will be left behind.
Apple Butter
Makes: enough for 8 jars
3 quarts cored, peeled and chopped apples
2 cups apple cider
2 cups sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Put all ingredients in a large pot and bring to a boil. Immediately lower heat and simmer for 5-7 hours. Can or freeze.

About the Author (Author Archive)
I am a writer, editor, mother of twins, and enthusiastic home cook. I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn't find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like "a potato"). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother's footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers' market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe's. When I'm not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma's Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for Bay Area Bites and Denise's Kitchen. My food inspirations are M.F.K Fisher, Julia Child, and Alice Waters — three fabulous women who encompass everything I love about food.-

The Hickory Crawdads opened the second half of their season Thursday with a 6-3 victory against the Greensboro Grasshoppers at L.P. Frans Stadium

Hickory Post 48 has cancelled two its final seven games on the schedule with Caldwell County Post 29.
Hickory, 12-2 overall, 9-1 in the Area IV Western Division, was scheduled to take on Caldwell County twice — June 23 at Henkel-Alley Field in Hickory and June 27 at M.S. Deal Stadium in Caldwell County.
BELLEFONTE, Pa. — Lawyers for one of Jerry Sandusky's adopted sons said the man has told authorities the former Penn State assistant football coach abused him.
The lawyers issued a statement Thursday naming Matt Sandusky, one of Jerry Sandusky's six adopted children, and saying that the 33-year-old had been prepared to testify on behalf of prosecutors at his father's sex abuse trial.

If people stop paying to go see them, Hollywood will stop making them.
We have no one to blame but ourselves for the increase in exploitative ultraviolence.
Okay - I saw previews for this a few months ago...
It's a faux-documentary about a serial killer that haunts Poughkeepsie, New York... And they found over 800 tapes of him torturing/mudering women...
What do you think about this?
I mean, horror movies are gorey, violent... They are made to scare you.
But since so many horror films have been taking it up a notch... This seemed like the only way to reach people's real scare-O-Meter.
I saw the trailers... I saw some clips...
And trust me, it takes a lot for a horror movie to scare me!! I'm a part-time special-effects make-up artist... lots of latex and fake blood=zombie! I love this stuff...
But a woman whimpering and begging for her life, in a faux documentary seems wrong... I personally think it's going too far... Perhaps it's because I am a survivor of a violent act, and I can't stand seeing things like this.
Serial killers are scary enough in real life - Why do something this extreme?
If people stop paying to go see them, Hollywood will stop making them.
We have no one to blame but ourselves for the increase in exploitative ultraviolence.
Agree. The public demands more and more realistic violence and gore in their horror flicks, and Hollywood is happy to oblige. Special effects have gotten so good now that people demand a certain level of quality in the movies they pay to see, and horror films are no exception. Unfortunately, getting closer to realism in horror means showing the most gruesome and terrifying things that humans are capable of, or at the very least the most horrifying things we can imagine.

With the success of gornography films like the Hostel and Saw series it's no wonder this film is made. They can make films as gory as they want as far as I am concerned. As long as they remember that the story has to be worth something too. Something the Hostel and Saw series completely lack.
Gore alone doesn't make a film good. So even though I call myself a gorecreeps inc. member I'll be the first to say how shitty the Saw and Hostel films are.
Well its like what ever there is enough horror movies about pychos out there so its like what ever and turing a real story about a guy killing women into a horror movie is wrong really its like it really happened dont do that its not right.
Hmmm, what about a female serial killer torturing men?? I think if they did that it'll be a breath of fresh air for this genre. It is kind of like that movie "misery"
'Cause you give me something / That makes me scared, alright / This could be nothing / But I'm willing to give it a try / Please give me something
'Cause someday I might call you from my heart
They've done that plenty of times... Check out 'The Audition' - A Japanese horror film... Pretty disturbing, actually. "Misery" freaks me out a lot. lol!!
I agree that it's our fault for paying to see stuff like this...
I'll be the first to admit to paying to see a TON of horror/gore flicks...
Gore is interesting to me because I know it's fake. I like to see how they do it... What techniques and materials they use... Things like that.
I've worked on some cheap... I mean... VeRy low-budget short films for some of my friends. They wanted gore, gore, gore, and more gore... Thinking it would make the film interesting ((I can't really argue - I'm just the make-up/special-FX artist, not the director)) and I agree that it doesn't make the film. ((Hostel and SAW are prime examples - Thanks for pointing that out Hassun))
I guess what bothers me about "The Poughkeepsie Tapes" is how it's not "fun" horror movies you go to see with your friends... Because let's face it, we all like to be scared and grossed out. Things like SAW is certainly not real. But "The Poughkeepsie Tapes" is taking it to a level that makes me cringe. I guess it could just be me... but I know other women who have been victims of torturous violence will feel the same way.
It really shows how people in today's world are so used to seeing stuff like this, that it may not even be shocking to some people. >.>;;

Karen Hunn - 06/05/2002
Learnt this one on Saturday at Horndean workshop, and really enjoyed it... it was simple enough for less experenced dances to learn but enough to make you have to think about it, or was it just cause Robbie was wearing his Leather trousers that made me have to concentrate slightly more...LOL

El Paula
Terrianne Murrin - 03/05/2002
I found 'el paula' by accident and noticed the choreographer was Irish and had a look.I have never danced to anything other than country music so when i saw the track selected I was a bit surprised. Meanwhile, I had a go and was very impressed with the steps chosen. There are 19 dancers in my club and everyone enjoyed it and it has now become one of the clubs favourites. (especially the men, looking at the hip movements)I think it is a very enjoyable dance and hope you submit more like it. The optional hand movements were a bit tricky in the beginning but we soon got the hang of it. Well done Elaine and I hope to see more of your work soon. Best regards, Terrianne Murrin.
Blue Fever

D's Love
Anne & Charles (Cruisin' Cowboys) - 03/05/2002
We have danced this dance to both suggested tracks and prefer dancing to If I ever stop loving you. It also dances well to Bellamy Bros. If I said you had a beautiful body. Thought this dance would be more popular because most people have this music and the dance flows quite well

Stumblin' Steve - 03/05/2002
Terrific. This is bound to be a big hit and will almost certainly become a classic. If you miss this dance you're missing a treat! Good one Robbie. Also want to give it more than 5.
Stumblin' Steve - 03/05/2002
Don't usually like 'commercial' pop tracks, but this dance puts a new perspective on this one. Great dance which is bound to be around for a while. Nice one Karen - even I can manage the tag/restart ! Well worth its 5 boots. Stumblin'

yes, #4 shot is legal, probably have to keep shots within 30-35yds, waterfowl and turkey loads would be recommended, coyotes have a great desire to live.
Is it legal to use #4 buckshot for coyotes in KY if there are no other seasons open that restrict it?
yes, #4 shot is legal, probably have to keep shots within 30-35yds, waterfowl and turkey loads would be recommended, coyotes have a great desire to live.
It is not legal to use 4 buck, #4 shot is legal but not 4 buck. That's the way the reg is, you cannot possess or use buckshot for hunting furbearers in KY. Buckshot is defined as any lead shot .20 or larger as defined by SAAMI - Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers Institute http://www.saami.org/glossary/display.cfm?letter=B
This is the definition I was given by the Law Enforcement Division.

No "buckshot" is legal to hunt with in Kentucky during large game or small game seasons.
everything i have read and have been told says buckshot is ILLEGAL to use for hunting purposes including coyotes. I'm not exactly sure why though. Some people still use it disregarding the law.
Hunting Guide is on www.kentucky.gov There is a section that talks about Coyote Hunting and does mention NO BUCK SHOT, but you can use semi auto rifles like an AR15 and there is no Mag Restriction.
wish we could use 4 buck but buck is illegal for any hunting in any size
coyotes are more gooder

2 Broke Girls and a Lot of envy
Smart and snarky, we've loved Kat Dennings since the moment she stole the spotlight from Samantha on Sex and the City; then she convinced us that Michael Cera was swoon-worthy in Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, and we were psyched when we found out she'd scored her own show: 2 Broke Girls. So just imagine how exited we were to learn that she loves us back.
We recently heard from 2 Broke Girls makeup artist Patty Bunch that Kat is a huge fan of tarte and uses our LipSurgence™ matte lip tint on and off set.
"I've received so many calls and e-mails on what lipstick I'm using on Kat Dennings on "2 Broke Girls," Patty told us in an email. The answer: our matte lip tint in envy!
So, if you've ever wondered what our matte shades look like on, just tune into Kat's hysterical sitcom every Monday night at 8:30pm EST on CBS to see them in action. And pick up some envy today!
Based on this I actually ordered this lip color. While it's nice, it is definitely not the color Kat wears on 2 Broke Girls. Perhaps it is layered with another dark red color, but this is more of a plum. I like it, but $24 was a lot for me to suck up for something I wasn't looking for. Any other details?

text: At a stone picnic table on the campus of a large, suburban Phoenix high school, I break bread with a dozen of my church's youth. In the midst of their frenetic schedules, we pause to offer thanks to God for the food, which I brought for them from a nearby restaurant. In the blessing of the meal and the sharing of our lives at the table, we stand out as an odd oasis of thanksgiving and peace in the chaos of 3,000 adolescents' lunch period. A recent, discouraging report on the status of women at Duke University serves as the "meat" of our table talk on this pleasant sunny day in Arizona. I ask these college-bound teenagers if they have experienced the intense pressure Duke undergraduate women describe as "effortless perfection: the expectation that one would be smart, accomplished, fit, beautiful, and popular … without visible effort." I ask the girls in particular if they feel a need "to hide their intelligence in order to succeed with male peers," if "being cute trumps being smart?" One student admits, "I felt the pressure intensely in middle school to look a certain way; now I've realized I don't want to be a skinny little girl who labors for hours on my makeup and hair. I'm too busy with school and activities for that stuff; at some point you just give up." Others remark that the degree of pressure depends upon one's group of friends—the more popular groups feel more intense pressure to be "perfect," while the smarter youth feel pressure to pretend they don't study all of the time. These youth feel that girls and boys receive equal attention in the classroom (contrary to the experience of Duke female undergraduates), but all acknowledge that, in one way or another, appearances matter. In a consumption-based society, bodies—particularly women's bodies—become recalcitrant projects that require ceaseless work and the purchase of innumerable products. Physical deficiencies, such as excess weight or flawed skin, are increasingly viewed as evidence of moral weakness or lack of character. Thus, bright, talented young women at Duke University in 2003, though cognizant of media-derived pressure, nonetheless feel valued more for appearance rather than intelligence. Does the church, I ask the youth, serve as a place that relieves, or intensifies, pressures to look and be "perfect?" My survey certainly wasn't scientific or comprehensive, yet my heart leapt with hope as the youth described those at church as kind and accepting. One student said she isn't as conscious of body image at church; another said, "We go there to worship God, not to compare appearances." "At church, we're not scared to be ourselves," added a girl. "We can be real." Being real in the church involves a rich set of Christian practices, which are given their foundation in Scripture and theology, and are lived out in a community known as the Body of Christ. In Scripture, we encounter a God who made creation in God's image and called it good. We meet a savior who became flesh, washed in the waters of baptism, celebrated food and drink in his table life with the world's outcasts, suffered crucifixion, and bodily rose again. One youth in my congregation who struggles with body image (and who doesn't?) learned that God made her good. Now, whenever a teen magazine or a cruel comment makes her feel less than beautiful, she repeats to herself her one Hebrew word, "I'm tov, I'm tov. . .", and the doctrine of imago dei nurtures her body and soul. Stephanie Pausell, in her book Honoring the Body, writes "Our fragile bodies require communal attention, and so honoring the body is a shared practice, one for which we need each other in profound ways … bodily vulnerability is something we all share." As a community, we share in the practices that honor the body when we wash one another's feet, hold hands while praying over a suffering loved one in the hospital, or break bread together at a fellowship potluck. Worship offers innumerable practices to honor the body in its vulnerability—baptism, Eucharist, a liturgical year of feasting and fasting, singing, and Sabbath rest to name a few. At our breaking of bread on the high school picnic table, one student remarked about our church's practice of table. "You know," she said softly, "I love coming forward for our Lord's Supper. The bread of Jesus tastes so good." The body's sense of taste becomes an avenue for celebrating God's grace within us. Alleluia. Other practices of the Body of Christ that celebrate the body include retreats and mission trips. After a trip to the border town of Agua Prieta, Mexico, an astute freshman at the University of Arizona (who very much identified with the findings in the Duke report) said, "People in this town (Agua Prieta) struggle just to feed their bodies and house their children—they don't have the luxury of trying to be perfect." By touching and experiencing the lives of the poor as a practice of the church, we learn that the practice of honoring the body necessarily involves nourishing the hungry. By honoring the body through Christian practices based in our scriptural tradition, the church mentors its young into a way of life that understands embodiment as a gift. In living together as the Body of Christ, we are a people who allow youth and young adults to be and to celebrate their bodies. We follow the advice of Toni Morrison's character Baby Suggs. "Here," she said, "in this place, we flesh; flesh that weeps, laughs; flesh that dances on bare feet in grass. Love it. Love it hard." Melanie L. Dobson Hughes D' 02 is associate pastor at Dayspring United Methodist Church in Tempe, Ariz. |

Our Australian Labradoodle Stud in Texas
Australian Labradoodle Association of America:
registration number for Texas Labradoodles: ALAA-000910-1006
Our Girls
Killara Ridge Dotty
AKA Dotty
ALAA registration number ALAA-006843
Dotty is the super model of Labradoodles. Her gorgeous chocolate, wavy-fleece coat, large eyes, heavy-lab-like build and movie star smile prove her to be camera ready all the time.
She's an Australian multi-generational Labradoodle with Tegan Park and Rutland Manor bloodlines.
She's as sweet and loyal as can be and she always sits politely, waiting for a pat on the head or a tummy rub.
She loves nothing better than to find a great patch of grass on our farm and roll around to scratch her back while making happy growling sounds. Dotty is our largest Labradoodle, standard size and weighing 65 lbs.
- Emily
- Emily Sue - ALAA-022291
Emily is the daughter of Rosie, grand-daughter of Goldie. She is standard size, weighing 45 lbs and 23 inches at her shoulder.
She's truly white with a curly wool coat. Emily is so sweet and good-natured, just like her mother and grandmother. She has such sweetness and kindness in her heart, you can see it in her eyes.
She's the most eager to please and respectful of all of our dogs and we couldn't be more proud of her.
She's an Australian Multi-generational Labradoodle from the bloodlines of Tegan Park and Rutland Manor.
Little Lu- ALAA registration #029844
Little Lu is the product of two of my most favorite dogs, Dixie's Doodles Mudgee and our Rosie. She's the perfect combination of both of her parents, with Mudgee's lab-ish good looks, loose, wavy fleece coat with her mother's amber eyes and apricot cream color.
Little Lu is still very young, but she's already passed all of her health testing, so we're so excited to see what litters she will produce someday. Keep an eye out for Little Lu's future babies, they'll be just as wonderful as her and her parents!
Little Lu is, like all of our dogs, an Australian multi-generational Labradoodle with bloodlines from Tegan Park and Rutland Manor.
- ALAA registration #031328
Bella is a sweetheart! She LOVES hugs and will stare at you for days to be sure you know she loves you and only you, and that goes for everyone :O). She has the inherent sweetness that comes from Goldie, her mother.
Bella's unusual phantom markings are gorgeous to go with her sweet soul, making her a perfect Labradoodle from the inside out.
Bella is a small medium, weighing just over 30 lbs. Bella is about 19 inches at the shoulder.
- ALAA registration #030812
- Fiona is a like a clone of her mom, Dotty. She has movie star teeth, amazingly sweet, droopy eyes and she's built like a brick house, thick and solid.
Although Fiona is not very tall, about 21 inches at the shoulder, she weighs more than 55 lbs. Fiona is a sweet love that adores being hugged and rubbed on.
Her coloring is amazing, starting out as chocolate as a puppy, she is much more of a champagne chocolate now and we are thrilled with her!
Our Boys
ALUSA's Jack
AKA Jack
ALAA registration number ALAA-019075
Jack is the most gracious of dogs. If he could fix you a drink and tell you a joke, he'd do it and have you in stitches with laughter, and even without being able to talk, he keeps everyone amused with his unique and charming charisma.
He knows lots of tricks and he's quick and eager to learn more.
He's sired several therapy dogs, including one that has graduated from A & M's program.
Jack is a small-medium Australian multi-generational Labradoodle with a curly fleece lavender coat. He's an Australian Multi-generational Labradoodle from the bloodlines of Tegan Park and Rutland Manor.
In Retirement
- Downunder's Goldie
AKA Goldie - RETIRED :)
- ALAA registration number ALAA-00478
Goldie is the most charming, loyal and loving dog you could know. She's a great family member, best friend and mother. She never ceases to provide cheerleader-like excitement every time I return from a chore or trip to town. Most of her puppies seem to have her easy-going, happy-go-lucky demeanor.
Goldie has a "fifth" gear that affords her the speed to outrun all of our dogs, even her youngsters! She's produced a puppy that graduated from A & M's therapy dog school and several other dogs that function as therapy dog's and do wonderful work caring for their owners.
Goldie is an Australian multi-generational Labradoodle from the bloodlines of Tegan Park and Rutland Manor. She is medium sized, weighing 35 lbs. Her cream coat is more wool than fleece with loose curls.
Labradoodles are THE most amazing breed of dogs for so many reasons. The main reason we decided to get Labradoodles and then raise them was because I have asthma and I have to have hypo-allergenic dogs. Our Multi-generational Labradoodles have a fleece coat which ensures hypo-allergenic and non-shedding. Therefore, having multi-generational Labradoodles was a must because I could not risk having an allergy to our dogs.
As we did our research on Labradoodles we found out that an F1 Labradoodle was simply breeding a Labrador to a Poodle and didn't offer any guarantees on "hypo-allergenic dogs" or non-shedding dogs. The "second tier" of a Labradoodle would be what is referred to as an F1B Labradoodle which is taking a F1 Labradoodle and breeding it back to a Poodle for a better coat, but still not "hypo-allergenic" or truly non-shedding, so still not what we needed. So we moved on to the "Multi-generational" Labradoodles which are six generations or more of Labradoodle being bred to Labradoodle. We furthermore realized that the Australian multi-generational Labradoodles (now deemed "Authentic" by the Australian Labradoodle Association) have even more consistent breed characteristics that are important to us.
And so the multi-generational Australian Labradoodles are what we decided would work for our family for many reasons. The most important reason being "hypo-allergenic" and non-shedding, but the next reason is that there is a consistency in the temperament of the multi-generational Labradoodles that does not exist in the F1 Labradoodle or F1B Labradoodle. The multi-generational Labradoodles are inherently calm. We've had so many people come to see our Labradoodle puppies and be shocked at how calm and quiet they are. That is not to say that you cannot get that temperament with an F1 Labradoodle or an F1B Labradoodle, but it cannot be expected as it can and should be with the multi-generational Labradoodles.
With a house full of multi-generational Australian bred Labradoodles, we could not be more in love or enthralled with any animal as we have become with these amazing little souls. They are each and every one so special and so loving. Our Labradoodles are the sweetest, calmest, loyalist, most loving creatures I've ever met. They all have the most endearing and loyal personalities. All of our dogs just stare into our eyes as though we are the greatest people in the world! They seem to have endless patience with our very rough and tumble four year old, and prove daily that they are the perfect child-friendly, asthma friendly dogs. It is truly hard to convey in words what wonderful dogs they are. To call them perfect pets would not be an exaggeration! I have not met one Multi-Generational Labradoodle that doesn't convey all these qualities, and there certainly is not one in our house that isn't anything but a perfect companion.
We are striving to breed a variety of Labradoodle colors ranging from golden crème to black and everything in between including caramel (apricot light, medium and dark), café, chalk, chocolate and apricot crèmes.
We take our dog's health testing very seriously and have all age-appropriate and recommended tests done at the suggested ages. This way we know that we are doing our very best to bring the very healthiest Labradoodle puppies we can into this world and that we are eliminating hip dysplasia, elbow abnormalities and eye disorders. We also do a thyroid panel on our dogs as an extra cautionary test.

Pop Danthology 2012 - Mashup of 50+ Pop Songs. The Latest & Greatest Resources Online. Bookmarking useful websites in college is on every student's to do list.
Unfortunately, shuffling through your pages and organizing your online tools can be a hassle for everyone. When organizing my own weekly bookmarks this morning, I lost track of time and ended up spending 2+ hours picking the right pages, organizing by categories and, for the most part, getting distracted. That's why I created a list of recent web pages & online tools for HC- saving you time and bringing you online updates you'll definitely use at some point in your college career. There are so many useful sites out there today, and this is only a fragment of the lists I have put together in the past. Instructables - Make, How To, and DIY. 25 Handy Words That Simply Don't Exist In English. Approximately 375 million people speak English as their first language, in fact it's the 3rd most commonly spoken language in the world (after Mandarin Chinese and Spanish).
Interestingly enough it's the number 1 second language used worldwide - which is why the total number of people who speak English, outnumber those of any other. But whilst it's the most widely spoken language, there's still a few areas it falls down on (strange and bizarre punctuation rules aside). We look at 25 words that simply don't exist in the English language (and yet after reading this list, you'll wish they did!) 1 Age-otori (Japanese): To look worse after a haircut 2 Arigata-meiwaku (Japanese): An act someone does for you that you didn't want to have them do and tried to avoid having them do, but they went ahead anyway, determined to do you a favor, and then things went wrong and caused you a lot of trouble, yet in the end social conventions required you to express gratitude.

In general, most people are very complex and can exhibit different personality traits at different times.
But one can also say that there tends to be two distinct groupings in societies' power structures: Those who can be characterized as "normal," and those who view the world through a prism heavily influenced by psychopathy and sociopathy. My take (by trying to understand the world around me) is that the great majority of people operate under the "normal" approach, when it comes to power-plays and relationships.
A very small minority could be characterized as high-functioning sociopaths and/or psychopaths. And it's not that the majority is "normal" as in not being afflicted by all kinds of personality, psychological, and psychiatric disorders...

Staff are personal and professional; baby-sitters can easily be arranged at the last minute; and the chef himself comes out to ask what you want to eat. With yoga, kayaking, surfing, golf, horseback riding, and spa treatments all available on-site or a short drive away, Imanta has an enviable combination of location, low-key luxury, and service. 2011 Hot ListWhich room to book: Tayau villa, with its beautiful Pacific views, has an ideal location close to both the beach and the upper restaurant.

This week on CounterSpin: a special look at two stories. One of them has received significant media attention that you might not always understand; the other is a story that's flown under the media radar altogether. Turmoil in the housing market has been pinned on Wall Street's appetite for so-called subprime mortgages. With house prices declining and foreclosures heading the other direction, the media are now sifting through the debris to tell us what happened. But what should we have known all along? And who exactly is being rescued now? Journalist Nomi Prins will join us to explain.

Audaciousness aside, Rich had bought into an industry ruthlessly unforgiving in its demands. Profits depended on the purchase or lease of older airplanes subject to accelerating repair costs. Scheduling was a nightmare. Planes flew and money was made only if charters were promoted and sold. Winters were always slow. Federal regulators seemed to exist only to create logjams.
Despite its troubles, the airline developed an impressive list of cargo clients -- including recluse Howard Hughes and famed oceanographer Jacques Cousteau. By the early Eighties it had nine planes and had expanded into charter passenger service. Still, its financial trajectory had reached too few highs and too many lows. Shortly after deregulation opened the airline industry to competition, the price of certain cargo planes dropped dramatically, which allowed many of Rich's customers to buy their own planes and ship their own cargo. The market for charter services declined precipitously.
In 1983 the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, listing debts of nearly four million dollars. Jean Rich turned to George Batchelor for help, and he loaned her one million dollars on the condition that it be repaid, with interest, in five years. If she failed, he would assume control of the airline. Rich agreed to pay back every creditor in full, and emerged from Chapter 11 within one year, though it would take several more years to compensate all creditors. Mischievously, her daughter recalls, Rich waited until the absolute last minute to produce the cashier's check to Batchelor. "She hand-delivered it to his office," Harrington says. "She said, 'No f-ing way is George Batchelor getting his hands on my planes.'"
Initially Jean Rich confronted ovarian cancer with the same assertiveness she brought to her work. She called her family together after the disease was diagnosed in August 1991 and told them that doctors had found "a little tumor." Physicians soon removed two tumors during a hysterectomy, but her condition didn't improve. More surgery was planned, and in anticipation of that, she prepared a new will with the help of husband Bill Meenan.
After opening her up a second time, surgeons discovered that her body was riddled with cancer. Though death was imminent, family members withheld the grim news.
Jean Rich died December 20, 1991, at South Miami Hospital, cradled in her daughter's arms. She was 54 years old. Of the family she left, only one child, David, worked at her airline. Linda's only job at the time was caring for her mother. Youngest sons Stephen and Michael worked outside the aviation industry.
Her mother's death had a profound effect on Linda, who, as the eldest child, took it upon herself to assume the role of family leader and protector, a role that only intensified a long-simmering rivalry between her and her brother David. (All three brothers declined to comment for this story.) Further complicating matters, Linda's relationship with her stepfather, Bill Meenan, soon deteriorated.
At the time of her death, Jean Rich's airline owned two DC-8 long-range passenger aircraft and leased other planes, at least one of them from George Batchelor's International Air Leases, Inc. The company had $2.7 million in cash on hand and expected to end the year with $810,000 in profit, according to financial reports and audits by the accounting firm Morten Beyer & Associates. But it also had $2.9 million in long-term debt.
Because of the airline's debts and its erratic past, accountants found little cause for optimism. The company had no stable base of business and faced overwhelming competition from the big carriers. Even major charter airlines had a tough time surviving. "It is fair to say that no established conventional major or regional airline could endure the vicissitudes of fortune that are daily fare at Rich," reads the accountants' report. The company managed to overcome obstacles and expand only because its manager, Jean Rich, was able to respond flexibly and effectively, the report notes, adding that the joint venture with Batchelor was responsible for helping Rich make a profit the year of her death.
On January 13, 1992 -- the late Jean Rich's birthday -- Bill Meenan called a meeting of the family at the offices of Harry K. Bender, his dead wife's personal attorney, for a formal reading of her last will and testament. All four children attended. When they arrived, Linda Harrington recalls, Bill Meenan and the airline's regulatory attorney, Gary Garofalo, were conversing in a conference room. That seemed wrong to Harrington. Why was Garofalo present at the reading of the will?
All assembled around a long table, Garofalo at the head, Linda and two of her three brothers sitting at angles at the other end. For the children, the memory of their mother's last birthday and their first Christmas without her lingered.
Bill Meenan got his 40-percent share in Rich International, the household furniture, the Mercedes Benz, the Jeep Wagoneer, and the Bertram yacht. The children were to receive jewelry and 60 percent of the company. Meenan, named in the will as executor of the estate, was to sell the real property -- a million-dollar home in Gables Estates, a Key Biscayne condominium, and a house in Islamorada -- the proceeds from which were to be put into trust for the four children and one grandchild. Meenan would get an additional $500,000.

Alyssa Attends The "Horrible Bosses" Premiere
[nggallery id=11]
[nggallery id=11]
Hi!!Alyssa I think that I'm the biggest fan of you….I'm very glad for you and you're boy which will born this summer….I watched you on charmed.
I always follow news about you and then i see that you're pregnant i was very happy…
I HOPE YOU WILL HAVE NICE WEEKEND love…..you and you're still born baby
Geez was that fan Sejhan Hani Ramadani rude. Alyssa please remove her rude post. Notice what she says at the end. She hopes that you and your still born have a nice weekend. Some people!!
Anyways… I don't normally write to actors and actresses on their websites but I really think that you and Holly need to work on a Charmed reunion that hopefully sparks interest for another series take off. I miss the Halliwell adventures. It would be fun to see you guys together again all grown up and a living life a bit older. Reconstitute the power baby. See if you could get Shannan to come back for a ghostly appearance like your Grams does on occasion. No Billy! I dont think her character was a good move for the story line. This show seems to still have a stong fan base. It could work.
Congrats on your lil baby. I wish you all the success in your career and in your personal life. Don't sell yourself short ever. You have a wonderful talent and your are a beatiful girl/woman Be strong.
Hello. Like Cher I don't ever write on celebrities' websites, but I do agree with Cher on a reunion Charmed show. But instead of bringing back the sisters for a new series, the sisters should introduce the boys (Piper's sons, Wyatt and Chris) for a series. I think it would be great and could be called Twice Charmed. Charmed was such a fantastically written series and even the way it was brought to an end with closure for all the characters was good.
I would like to see a "new" Charmed with occasional visits from the sisters. And Alyssa, you were my fav!!! I think some of my favorite episodes were with you and Billy Zane. They just seemed fun.
Congrats on your new venture…mommyhood. I have two little ones myself and though it's a lot of work, it's the greatest, most satisfying career in the world with the best perks!!! May you and your hubby have a beautiful life full of love and blessings!
Sorry to be a so-and-so, but there is a noticeable error in the post: SHould be ""ATTENDS"" and not Atennds.
It sticks out like a sore thumb. Just for your info! Have a Fabulous Weekend!
In passing a quick thank you for the quick fix! Everything looks great now. WIshing you a safe and easy delivery. The whole world wishes to welcome your new "arrival"with great excitement!

Hey there little missy this is Nathen From you know where and it has been a long time sence we have seen each other, now that we are in are thirties we should begun to talk about all of the wonderful things that we have both lived with, starting with heart break…. kidding, but if there is nothing left to speak of then that will be all that we have to talk about. I still think of when I was a child and that has a lot to do with the way that I was raised, a lot of family bull that go around me, but it was worth all of the love and attention. Do you remember when Muckleshoot was just a lot of trees with only one store here, yeah well it took the best of me to meet all of the right people to help. Love life knowing that I got this chance. later.

Congratulations on your new bundle of joy. Hope you and your husband enjoy him because they grow up so quickly. Many blessings to you and your family.
I was playing catch up with your series on netflix. I was sad to see the last show today. I am sure you still have a lot of fans out there. My whole family loved you as the charmed ones and even my 6 year old grandson. I am happy you are making your own family and not just lucidly living it on the show.
I remember when you came out in commando with Arnold Schwarzenegger. Its great you used your karate skills in Charmed. It would be nice to see you live on stage some day.
Even pregnant you look so amazing. I have always had a crush on you, but now I know that feeling will never end. I wish the best for you and your new family. God bless!

Hi Alyssa, I'm not sure if you actually get a chance to read these. I'm sure you're super busy. You are so gorgeous. I've heard that you're a vegetarian. Does it keep you healthy? I'm wondering because I have multiple sclerosis and am currently not responding to treatment so I'm trying different diet options. Anyways, you look beautiful as ever and you have always been my favorite actress. I'm also a big fan of your tattoos. have a good one!

Hopefully leaving the murky mud bath of last night behind, who knows what is in store for T in its final day today.
It started on the right (welly-clad) foot though, opening with a classical act debut for the Main Stage. Here Scottish star and violin virtuoso, Nicola Benedetti wowed the early afternoon crowd in a big first for T.
Holding her 6.3 million pound violin in safe hands, well away from the mud which still plagues the festival site, she educated festival goers in her fine art, playing ferociously, exuding passion from every movement of her bow, all the while looking highly glam amongst this shabby-chic affair- any hint of the chic is fading fast.
After yesterday's conditions leaving fake tan redundant, alongside any pride in appearance, on the whole, the upbeat crowd are Scottish to the core, and continue to get on with things a bit like Andy Murray- yes, I've just remembered there is a real life outside of T. It's very easy to forget about that existence when you're wrapped up in the alternative reality for the weekend.
Hoping our classical adventures this morning will hold us in good stead for the day ahead, we're off to delve into the pop extravaganza, Nicki Minaj is in town don't you know. For the time being, the rain is a drizzle at most, and the mud continues to work the thighs better than one of those silly foam thigh toners.
Unfortunately Christina Perri and her Jar Of Hearts are no longer able to make the festival due to flight issues, nonetheless, Swedish House Mafia are still set to smash it tonight.
We might be on our last day, but despite the trench foot, there's still a massive party to be had at Scotland's biggest music festival.

ABC News' Jonathan Karl reports: In this year of the unconventional candidate, a Democrat running for mayor of Providence, Rhode Island, may be the most unconventional yet. During his closing statement during a candidate debate on Tuesday, Chris Young started by savaging one of his opponents for "leading us into a budget shortfall of $12 billion in the state of Rhode Island" and then goes on to propose to his girlfriend. But Young's best moment came on Monday when used an interview on a local TV news program to serenade the anchor. The best part of the interview: The anchor's reaction when Young offers to come on the show again with his guitarist.

PR director let off after making bomb comment to Air New Zealand agent at check-in
Shaun Lines sparked a security scare at Auckland Airport after remarking that he had explosives in his bag.
A company director who was arrested after joking to Air New Zealand staff that he had a bomb in his bag at Auckland airport has been discharged without a conviction, The Dominion Post reports.
Shaun Lines, 47, the owner and director of a Hastings-based PR and marketing company on New Zealand's North Island – appeared before a judge in Hastings District Court on Tuesday and pleaded guilty to the charge of communicating false information affecting the safety of an aerodrome.
The breach of the Civil Aviation Act carries a maximum penalty of 12 months in prison.
Lines, who was due to board a domestic flight to Napier on August 20, was checking in bags when an Air New Zealand agent asked if his luggage weighed more than 23kgs – to which he replied: "I had to shuffle the bags around to make sure the explosives are under 23kg."
It is understood that the businessman had just arrived in New Zealand on a flight from Europe.
His lawyer, Richard Stone said that he regretted the "stupid" joke, which led him to miss his flight as he was searched by security staff and later questioned by police.
No explosives were found.
Judge Rea said it was a foolish statement but that Lines was probably exhausted after his trip from Europe, adding that a conviction would be "over the top."
Dropping the charge against him, the Judge ordered Lines to pay prosecution fees of NZ$250.

That's been the routine for a good fifteen years, at least right up until Larry, a retired probation officer, succumbed to cancer a couple of months ago. "He fought it a long time," Mister Lee shrugs painfully, his usual grin slipping right off his face. "We was worried about him, but he try to be a proud old bird. He always could talk more trash than a freight train." So now Mister Lee gets his own coffee, if he can't cajole longshoreman Elizah Mackey, a.k.a. Ringo, into it. Just before noon, Lenita (who has also taken over lottery duties from Big Willie) comes by to watch the place for a few hours while Mister Lee grabs lunch and a snooze. He's usually back by four in the afternoon, and locks up by about 8:30 p.m.
Lenita Gibbs is a short heavy woman of 60 years, with a broad open face that sports a few black and white chin hairs. She wears her hair in short salt and pepper braids unraveling at the ends. When she isn't scowling at the foolish antics of wayward children, she's laughing raucously, mouth gaping and wildly bereft of teeth. Lenita, who worked at a Steak and Ale for a long time, became part of the informal coffee club a few years ago. "We tried a couple of other ladies, but it never worked," Mister Lee explains. "Lenita just fit. She think we're funny and we like that."
Lenita fit in so well because she's a sucker for gossip, but she can also hold her own in man talk. "We talk about everything -- the mens, the womens -- just everything that go on," she says. "I wasn't even a coffee drinker really. My granddaddy used to say, 'Drinking coffee makes you black.'" Lenita rolls her eyes and laughs at her childhood gullibility. When Mister Lee decided the guy he used to have watch his place in the afternoons wasn't working out, he asked Lenita if she wanted the job. "She did," Mister Lee remembers, "and it was the best thing ever happened."
Lenita lives down the street with one of her three sons. In the mornings, she walks her granddaughter Briana to Frederick Douglass Elementary School, which is just catty-corner across NW Third Avenue from Mister Lee's. Then she'll wander about, get a few games of Tetris in on her son's PlayStation, and head down to the laundry. There, it is her mission to put right all that has gone wrong since the morning, when people began coming in to, in her opinion, take advantage of her old friend's good nature. "Mister Lee got all the people here spoiled rotten," she harrumphs affectionately. "He loan them money sometimes. He let them use the buckets in back and then they don't bring 'em back. So I have to go around the neighborhood and round 'em up."
Lenita continues her rant: "He one of the nicest people have a business in this area. The majority of the parents here, he helped across the street as children. These kids, he gives 'em money. Then when he gone, they look at me. And I say, 'I don't have no quarters for no games!'"
Mister Lee's laundry is a shrine to black pride. The walls are plastered with old posters and sports pennants, Dolphins, UM, Bethune-Cookman College. There's a black and white team photo of the 1955 Crispus Attucks High School basketball team in Indianapolis. "That was the first all-black team that won a state championship," Lee remarks proudly. There are several old calendars, either Great Queens of Africa or Great Kings. There's the obligatory portrait of Martin Luther King, Jr. Also clipped to the walls are numerous community flyers and old news articles. The top of the April 2, 2002 edition of the Miami Times headlined "Black Oscar Winners" shows Denzel Washington, Halle Berry, and Sidney Poitier.
There's a framed portrait of a young and arrogant boxer, Everlast gloves held up. His handle is Electrifying Classius Ali (a.k.a. Wayne Blair). He's an Overtown kid, a long-time customer, and one of the boys who took boxing lessons with the Police Benevolent Association, going on to make a minor sensation of himself as a junior middleweight. "He got pretty good," Mister Lee offers. "But you know, the boxing business is rotten and he fell down. He still wash here, though."
The tiny arcade at the front consists of a pinball machine and three battered video games: Street Fighter Plus, Metal Slug, and the classic, Ms. Pac-Man. The pinball machine is called The Getaway, and features a red car with a hot blonde in the passenger seat and the license plate "Kingpin." Two brown-skinned adolescent boys enthusiastically hit the flipper to whack the little silver ball through the gates.
A younger boy of perhaps three or four years stands behind them for a moment, then toddles past a row of yellow and white washing machines, back to where Mister Lee is perched on a stool near his work bench. Tacked above the bench is a handwritten list of names of who owes rent, and a "hot list" of who owes back rent. A Jackson Memorial janitor comes in to pay his rent. He lays out $360 in four piles of twenties while Lee writes out a receipt and locks the money away for the landlord to collect later.
