Movies in the Santa Clarita Valley, Part 6: Hill of the Winds: The William Hart House
William Surrey Hart (1864-1946) was one of the great silent film stars and according to some, was the biggest film star of his day. He certainly was one of the biggest Western stars. Interestingly enough, he didn't act in his first movie until he was 48. For the 25 years before that, he was on the stage.
Hart moved out to Los Angeles in 1914 and began filming Westerns with Tom Ince, his friend at the time and the head of the New York Motion Picture Company. For many months, Hart was fiercely loyal to Ince, even though he was only being paid $125 a week. Later, when Hart and Ince ended their relationship, Hart moved over to Artcraft in 1917 and made 16 pictures with them. For each picture he was guaranteed $150,000 plus a percentage of the profits. In 1919 his salary was increased to $250,000 per picture and also 75% of the gross. No, that is not a typo.
So between 1914 and 1925, Hart made an astounding 76 films. He also directed 53 films, produced 18, and wrote 11 scripts. No wonder he retired in 1925. By this time, anyway, he was 60 years old and fabulously rich. And during that time, in 1921, he also married Winifred Westover, but the marriage lasted less than one year. One son, William Hart Jr. was born.
Hart filmed his last film, Tumbleweeds on the Horseshoe property, now the location of his home, in 1925. After the film was finished, Hart purchased the property. Los Angeles architect Arthur Kelly designed Hart's home, a lovely Spanish style home atop a hill overlooking the valley. Hart christened the home La Loma de los Vientos (Hill of the Winds) and moved into it in 1927.
Hart died in 1946. Upon his death, the property was bequeathed to the County of Los Angeles, the stipulation being that people be able to visit the property free of charge. When he had announced that the property would go to the public, Hart said, "While I was making pictures, the people gave me their nickels, dimes, and quarters. When I am gone, I want them to have my home."
The home is called La Loma de los Vientos (Hill of the Winds) but the home and land combined are still called Horseshoe Ranch. It now consists of 256 acres and includes a park at the bottom of the hill, a gift shop, a petting zoo, a herd of bison (that did not arrive until 1962, a gift from the Disney Studios up the street) and various other structures, including a dog graveyard where his beloved Mack the bulldog is buried. His favorite horse, a small pinto named Fritz who was almost as famous as Hart himself, is also buried on the property.
The Hart property is an institution in the Santa Clarita Valley, but from what I gather, many people who live in the Valley have never visited it. I guess it's one of those things common to many places: if you live there, you just end up taking these places for granted.
The house sits on top of a very steep hill. You park at the bottom and put on your walking shoes and walk up a long dirt path to the home. It's a pretty walk but it's not a leisurely hike for many. We had to stop more than a few times to catch our breath. But that's ok - you can stop and enjoy the view.
We stopped and said hello to the bison herd (rather, we yelled a hello, as they were at the bottom of the hill near the water troughs). I've seen them a little closer on previous visits, so it was disappointing that they weren't closer so I could get some good pics. But bison will be bison.
When you get to the top of the hill, you're greeted by the magnificent house with a turquoise door with a sign that tells you that there are tours of the home on the half hour. We didn't have to wait long.
There were only four of us on the tour - I'm telling you, nobody knows about this place. And with a tour guide, we felt very special.
The first room we're taken into is the dining room which hosts a large portrait of Hart and Fritz.
We're then taken through the kitchen and then taken back into the foyer, which is the centerpiece of the house.
It truly is a spectacular way to be greeted when you walk into the house. The spiral staircase is decorated with artwork that was originally used in the novels that Hart wrote after he retired. The stairs, and the landing above the stairs, are one solid piece of concrete.
Upstairs is what could be called the great room, with all of Hart's belongings. (The entire house with his belongings, down to his boots and his books, are still in the house).
There are fifteen Charles Russells scattered throughout the house.
This watercolor, of Hart and Fritz, is used on the cover of Hart's autogiography, My Life East and West.
I've spoken before of Hart's devotion to his animals, especially his dogs. Apparently he was a big fan of Great Danes, especially harlequin Great Danes, and owned several during his lifetime. They even ended up with their own bedroom, shown here. (The black and white cutouts were added by the tour later, to show youngsters on the tour how big these dogs are). Hart even had custom beds made for his dogs. That's a paper mache model of Mack on the left.
From what I understand, all of these dogs are now resting in peace along with Mack in the boneyard, er, I mean the graveyard.
We were also shown some of smaller rooms with the various oddities, like the phone room. The kitchen had the marvelous stove that every antique lover would kill for now. And I was delighted to see a couple of movie magazines framed in one of the rooms.
All in all, I loved the place. Just being on top of the hill, with the wind blowing through the trees, I could totally understand why Hart chose this location for the house where he could enjoy the final years of his life - in style and comfort.
Hart had another home in West Hollywood. It is now the official home of The Actors Studio West.

Thanks all. It's nice that they allow you to take photographs, even if it's without flash. A lot of places won't even allow cameras.

Looks like you missed us. The historical Society is in the park as well, but we are somewhat hidden. on the south side of the park. Ah well maybe next time.
I must say you did an excellent job of capturing the essence of the house, I have been there many times, and absolutely love it.
On a decidedly different note. You should come by this Saturday, the 17th as Zombies invade Newhall, with an attempt to break the world record for number of Zombies dancing to Michael Jacksons Thriller.
This even is to kick off the historical Societies Annual Haunt, this year them, the Nightmares of Newhall.
where else can you go to be scared, in buildings that are purported to be Actually Haunted.

Hart's horse Fritz was actually a pinto. Hart collected old west guns and many were stolen in a break-in many years ago. Hart asked the artist Charles M. Russell's widow to marry him. She declined, but he kept a photo of her next to his bed.-Sage

Russell painted the watercolor of Hart on a sorrel horse before Hart owned the famous pinto Fritz. Russell actually drew sketches to show Hart how early cowboys dressed and heavily influenced Hart. Charlie Russell rode a famous pinto named Monty (Not Monte) long before Hart ever owned his pinto. Hart copied Russell's hat style, sash, saddle and horse. After Hart's death, Hollywood invented fantasy costumes that were nothing like those worn in the Old West.-Sage

Luke's Italian Beef - Chicago, IL
I've had Italian beef outside of Chicago but there's a belief that some of the best Italian Beef is made in Chicago. Luke's isn't hesitant to advertise Luke's was voted as Chicago's best.
For the price of $5.50, it was certainly didn't put a hurt to my wallet. What wasn't so nice was shelling out 45 cents extra for the sweet peppers. Come on, peppers should come standard with the base price. To make matters worse, these peppers were wimpy, mushy, and flavorless. I should have gone with hot peppers.
The beef was hot, thinly shaved, moist, and tender. It wasn't bland but it didn't have much notable flavor, certainly not much in the form of vibrant Italian spices. It had MSG because I was certainly parched afterwards. The entirety was ladled with too much au jus because as I unwrapped it, most of the roll was soggy although still intact. The roll was excellent otherwise. Luke's provides a generous portion of beef, certainly more than anticipated.
Luke's Italian Beef didn't leave me wanting more or looking forward to another Chicago Italian Beef, especially if this is the best Chicago has to offer.

This box does what I wanted it to by linking multiple input devices (DVB, X-Box, Wii, laptop)to one output, in this case a projector. I would have given 5 stars but I have nothing to compare it with,and the S-Video inputs and outputs are odd - the instructions do warn you, and I find S-Video odd anyway.
Ask a Question10 of 13 Questions

Before you can begin to filter spam based on statistics, you must create these statistics based on two mail collections, one with spam, one with non-spam. These statistics are then stored in a dictionary for later use. In order for these statistics to be meaningful, you need several hundred emails in both collections.
Gnus currently supports only the nnml back end for automated dictionary creation. The nnml back end stores all mails in a directory, one file per mail. Use the following:
Create spam statistics for every file in this directory. Every file is treated as one spam mail.
Create non-spam statistics for every file in this directory. Every file is treated as one non-spam mail.
Usually you would call spam-stat-process-spam-directory
on a
directory such as ~/Mail/mail/spam (this usually corresponds to
the group 'nnml:mail.spam'), and you would call
on a directory such as
~/Mail/mail/misc (this usually corresponds to the group
When you are using IMAP, you won't have the mails available
locally, so that will not work. One solution is to use the Gnus Agent
to cache the articles. Then you can use directories such as
"~/News/agent/nnimap/mail.yourisp.com/personal_spam" for
. See Agent as Cache.
This variable holds the hash-table with all the statistics—the dictionary we have been talking about. For every word in either collection, this hash-table stores a vector describing how often the word appeared in spam and often it appeared in non-spam mails.
If you want to regenerate the statistics from scratch, you need to reset the dictionary.
When you are done, you must save the dictionary. The dictionary may be rather large. If you will not update the dictionary incrementally (instead, you will recreate it once a month, for example), then you can reduce the size of the dictionary by deleting all words that did not appear often enough or that do not clearly belong to only spam or only non-spam mails.

Brad-Point Drill Bits
You Won't Find Any Higher Quality Bits Than These!
Shopsmith Brad Point Drill Bits
Brad-Point Bits are your best choice for most woodworking applications: Boring holes for dowels or round tenons; Pilot holes for screws or bolts; Counterbores. Whenever you need a clean hole, you need a brad point drill bit.
These bits are manufactured to our exacting specifications from high quality carbon alloy steel to take and hold a keen cutting edge.
Six reasons why Shopsmith brad point drill bits are the pro's choice:
- Pointed Tip guarantees "on-target" hole locating
- Precision Ground Edges shave hole sides clean
- Sharp Side Spurs enter & exit hole cleanly
- High quality Carbon Alloy Steel holds its edge
- Radiused Step adds strength and durability
- Deep Flutes clear chips fast
If you're struggling to bore clean, attractive holes in wood with ordinary twist-style or spade bits, you're making a mistake. For general purpose wood drilling, nothing beats brad-point bits.
Correct drilling speed is crucial
The larger the hole or the harder the material, the lower the speed. Drilling too fast will burn the stock and ruin your bit. Feed the bit into the hole slowly and evenly with light, steady pressure... and retract it frequently to clear the chips.
Use the Shopsmith Speed Reducer when using Forstner Bits or large diameter multi-spurs or other bits over 1-1/2-inch... especially in hard woods.
A super-sharp point at the tip locates the hole with unwavering precision, then "bites-in" to hold the bit on center as it advances.
The two side spurs slice cleanly through the wood fibers, making a perfectly round, splinter-free entry and exit, while the deep chip channels eject the chips quickly.
Shopsmith Brad Points are available individually or in convenient sets, as described below. All bits above 1/2-inch have 1/2-inch shanks.

As high-density traffic loads become increasingly diverse and complex, more powerful and sophisticated intrusion prevention capabilities are required. The Cisco IPS 4270 handles these performance demands by providing greater throughput without compromising pinpoint traffic inspection. The IPS 4270 offers up to 4-Gbps performance for media-intensive environments that feature Web-based content and video. For networks with heavy transaction-based traffic, such as e-commerce, point-of-sale, instant messaging, and voice over IP, the new appliance provides up to 2 Gbps of throughput and supports as many as 20,000 transactions per second. All of Cisco's IPS devices help information technology (IT) teams detect security vulnerabilities and exploits, respond promptly and precisely, and apply appropriate policies to prevent threats from entering corporate networks. However, the top-of-the-line performance inherent in the Cisco IPS 4270 enables businesses to protect their core enterprise locations with the greatest concentration of traffic. Ideal for Data Centers Besides high performance, the Cisco IPS 4270 has several other features that are ideally suited for data center environments. Because data centers are naturally complex (every enterprise typically features a unique, customized architecture to support specific traffic demands), the IPS 4270 appliance is designed to be both flexible and virtualization-friendly. The appliance enables IT organizations to "virtualize" both inspection and policy information, allowing intrusion prevention services to be woven into the overall data center system. The IPS 4270 appliance includes redundant, hot-swappable power options and a scalable interface that accommodates high-density copper and fiber Gigabit Ethernet ports. It supports thousands of interfaces for virtual local-area networks (VLANs). It integrates with Cisco's IPS Device Manager for standalone management. For multi-unit deployments, the Cisco IPS 4270 Sensor integrates with Cisco Security Manager and Cisco Security MARS (Monitoring Analysis and Response System) to help ensure collaborative central management across a network security infrastructure. "Cisco has made a conscientious effort to design a flexible, powerful and virtualization-friendly IPS device that meets the critical needs of high-traffic environments," said Mick Scully, vice president of product management for Cisco's Security Technology Group. "The IPS 4270 marks a new chapter in both Cisco and the security industry's evolution toward making intrusion prevention and traffic inspection supportive of networks that feature everything from collaborative Web 2.0 applications to continuous high-density transactions. Simply put, the IPS 4270 has the performance to address today's real-world enterprise and data center requirements."# # # Om Cisco Systems # # # Cisco, Cisco Systems og Cisco Systems-logoet er registrerede varemærker for Cisco Systems Inc. og/eller virksomhedens datterselskaber i USA og visse andre lande.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
This article needs additional citations for verification. (December 2009) |
Tiger Temple, or Wat Pha Luang Ta Bua, is a Theravada Buddhist temple in western Thailand that was founded in 1994 as a forest temple and sanctuary for wild animals, among them several tigers, mostly Indo-chinese Tigers. The temple is located in the Saiyok district of Thailand's Kanchanaburi province, not far from the border with Myanmar, some 38 km (24 mi) north-west of Kanchanaburi along the 323 highway.
Contents |
In 1999, the temple received the first tiger cub, one that had been found by villagers; it died soon after. Later, several tiger cubs were given to the temple, typically when the mothers had been killed by poachers, people whose "pet" tigers were getting too big, or those who had to when the laws about the keeping protected species became more strict.[1] As of 2007, over 21 cubs had been born at the temple, and the total number of tigers was about 12 adult tigers and 4 cubs. As of May 2012, the total number of tigers living at the temple has risen to over 100[citation needed].
The temple charges a 600 Baht admission fee (March 2011 about US$19) and 1000 Baht for an opportunity to photograph with a tiger to raise funds to care for the animals. There are doubts, however, that tigers do receive satisfactory care at the temple (see Criticism section below). Day trips also available from Bangkok and the journey takes about 2.5 hours. The temple sees between 300 and 600 visitors each day. There are donation boxes around the temple for those who wish to help support the sanctuary. For a fee, visitors may join in the tigers' morning or evening exercise programme. No more than 20 visitors may do this at a time. The temple staff says it costs US$100 per tiger each day for the their feeding and care. Western staff sell the additional services, although the handlers usually are local Thai women.
Guests can engage in other activities with the tigers. These include bottle feeding tiger cubs, exercising adolescent tigers, bathing tigers, hand-feeding tigers and posing with sleeping adult tigers.
The tigers are washed and handled by Thai monks, international volunteers and the local Thai staff. Once a day, they are walked on leashes to a nearby quarry. Originally they would roam around freely, but with the increase in visitors and the number of tigers, they are chained for safety. The staff closely guide visitors as they greet, sit with, and pet the cats. The staff keep the tigers under control and the abbot will intervene if a tiger becomes agitated. The entry fee goes to feeding the animals, and also to fund building a larger tiger sanctuary which will allow the animals to live in an almost natural environment. Portions of the new sanctuary are already open and inhabited with tigers, but other parts are in construction as they need the right fencing around the moat to keep the tigers from leaving the sanctuary. The temple is reforesting a large amount of land nearby ('Buddhist Park') to possibly release the tigers into the wild in the future.
Because of a lack of managed breeding programmes and publicly available DNA data, the pedigree of the tigers is not known. However, it is presumed they are Indochinese Tigers, except Mek, who is a Bengal Tiger. It is possible that some may be the newly discovered Malayan Tigers, while many probably are cross breeds or hybrids.
It is claimed that the Tiger Temple's philosophy for animal conservation is flawed and involves malnutrition, physical abuse, horrible living conditions, and use of sedatives to calm tigers.[2] Care for the Wild International claimed that based on information collected between 2005 and 2008 the Tiger Temple is involved in clandestine exchange of tigers with the owner of a tiger farm in Laos contravening the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species and national laws of Thailand and Laos. It claimed it operates as a tiger breeding facility without having a respective license as required under the Thai Wild Animals Reservation and Protection Act of 1992.[3]
Since the report by Care for the Wild International, a coalition of 39 prominent conservation groups, including the Humane Society International, the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, the World Society for the Protection of Animals and the World Wide Fund for Nature, have penned a letter to the Director General of National Parks in Thailand under the name 'The International Tiger Coalition'.[4] This letter urges the Director General to take action against the Tiger Temple over its import and export of 12 tigers with Laos, its lack of connection with accredited conservation breeding programmes, and to genetically test the tigers at the Tiger Temple in order to determine their pedigree and value to tiger conservation programmes. It concludes that the 'Temple does not have the facilities, the skills, the relationships with accredited zoos, or even the desire to manage its tigers in an appropriate fashion. Instead, it is motivated both in display of the tigers to tourists and in its illegal trading of tigers purely by profit.'

Have Olympic protesters lost credibility after the riot?
Sat, February 13, 2010 QMI Agency More than 200 violent agitators smashed windows and threw paint on the windows of the HBC superstore downtown Vancouver Saturday morning.

To all who call covering your face in street protest a cowards.
Post your Name, address and phone number here in a gesture of transparency. Let us all know about who you are, like you think is your right about others. Send us to a site where everyone can examine photos of you doing what it is you do, or where you go in public, or does this not seem reasonable, or maybe even a violation of ones human dignity, and basic human rights ? What in life is transparent, can anyone truly name anything? Nothing is transparent thus the need for opague Black clad gear on bloc freedom fighters, or anyone else interested in observing their right to aninimity during protest or while doing anything in public. If They can't where their gear, then no one can wear anything because it is a slippery slope as is apparent. Their protest proved to be very effective, and this is because the web is a buzz with todays actions of a mere few. In time every body gets tired of replacing broken windows, and concessions are made, history teaches us this. It is my guess the black clad protesters know it too, and long term is the objective through education, stimulated by forced awareness.
They are Professional protesters. They around the world protesting anything and everything such as seal hunts,oil drilling, global climate change, etc. They are nothing more than a crummy gang of HOOLIGANS! Hence they are criminals!

Hiding ones face is the effect side of the cause and effect equation. The Politzi creates files on dissenters which inturn creates the need for ananimity. Law enforcement and new legislation will continue to repeal our fought for freedoms, so we civilians need many more civilian masked marauders than are currently out there insuring or fighting for freedoms, or protesting opression and tyranny disguised as something else.... think about it.

I wish these protest were happening in Quebec. The police there know how to handle these cockroaches.
They didn't lose it from me - but they never had it. If you are protesting, I'm assuming you are trying to make a point, and effect some change. Now, I haven't done extensive research on the subject but in all I've read so far tonight I can't find a single note of why the protests are happening. OK, I get that they are protesting the Olympics, but I don't have any idea what their stand is. If they really care about a cause, I'd think the concentration should be placed more on the why than the what. If you want me to care about your cause and believe in you, I at least need to know what that cause is. I still need to make up my own mind about the "credibility" issue but at this point it's not even a part of the equation. You need to say something before you can be credible or not.

We don't choose our parents and being born into a life of poverty I would have found it easy to blame them, the Government and anyone else convenient. Here is a nice black and white answer for the constant complainers that leech from the system. Work 2 jobs so that you can put yourself through school and hopefully get a decent job. That way you earn the right to b*tch about taxes, wasteful spending and whatever else irks you. Personally I am proud of Vancouver and the wonderful job they are doing hosting the games. Dear protesters use your energy to further your life and help others instead of looking like malcontent thugs. GO CANADA!

Your comments.. "Anyone who is against these protesters but are for slaughtering aghans that are defending against our presence is a hypocrite." ...are right out to lunch. You are comparing apples to oranges, I am assuming that you have been to Afghanistan, and can back up your verbal vomit with facts..times, dates etc...no, thought so. Quit ranting on things you know nothing of. The question here is simple..Have the protesters lost their credibility? I would say that in my opinion, yes they have, every Canadian has the constitutional right to protest, to free speech, and thought, (Tim, who would you think gaurentees those rights for the protesters?) However when they start damamging private / public property, they have gone from a group of protesters to a bunch of common thugs & criminals.
6000 police officers
4300 RCMP 4000 Troops on Standby All at a cost that which will probably amount to more than 1 billion dollars. I reality lets say there are 3000 protesters willing to make the effort to walk the walk, and out of them 2800 of them are for non violent protest and would never cause violence or damage regardless of a police presence or not. This leaves the extremist element of about 200 hundred, who are willing to go much further and take more risks to bring awareness to their causes. In reality the two hundred are "man powered" @ 5 million per head. The 200 anarchists, if that is indeed what they are should be proud of what it has cost the city, by purposely and purposefully creating a scenario which made them over prepare. The threat of a some spattered paint and a few broken windows in Vanoc's and the OIC's good judgement forced them to spend 1 billion and the windows are still being broken anyways. And before anyone says the police presence is to prevent terrorism, look around you, because it apparently does not exist other than in hyperbolic unfounded fear mongering.
Lost what credibility? They never had any credibility to lose in the first place.

The people who may have lost a bit of credibility are the Vancouver Police. They should have treated these losers like the Danish police did in Copenhagen. A few quick baton strikes around their heads (no danger of damaging anything important in there) and then let them sit on the cold street for a few hours with their hands tied behind their backs. Might teach them a thing or two about sacrificing for your beliefs. Might also teach them a bit of respect for the sacrifices of the veterans whose ceremony they disrupted yesterday. Any one of those vets is worth all these useless losers put together!

Turkey Day leftovers are good on their own, but you can also transform them into something magnificent. Check out our easy, mouthwatering ideas for dressing up your Thanksgiving leftovers.
Use the turkey carcass, leftover dark meat and even leftover veggie sides to whip up this deliciously warming soup.
Recipe:Next Day Turkey Soup
Leftover turkey breast combines with beans, chili peppers, and jack cheese makes a mean chili.

I'm so proud whenever I get the Final Jeopardy answer right. IDGAF that it's the Teen Tournament, still nailed it.
One of these days I'm going to keep score when I watch Jeopardy and then wager on Final Jeopardy

Impress your friends- today's Final Jeopardy answer is Saudi Arabia, tomorrow's is Alfred Nobel.
John Irving won the Oscar in 1999 for screen adaptation of his own novel 'Cider House Rules'. A New England man. Final Jeopardy.
Ken Jennings squeeks by in Jeopardy Battle of the Decades semi-finals tonight. Initially, it looked like he would have a "runaway" victory as he had a huge lead but the 1986 Tournament of Champions winner Chuck Forrest fought back and even took the lead in Double Jeopardy. Ken finished strong though and wagered just enough in Final Jeopardy to win & advances to finals on thursday and friday. The questions are getting much tougher than normal. I usually get 10 to 15 correct responses (my record is like 20) but tonight only got 3. Tomorrow Brad Rutter in the semis who I want to see win so I can see the clash of the two ultimate Jeopardy Titans in the finals.
Final Jeopardy category tonight is Album Covers. Makes me think of celebrity jeopardy on SNL with Sean Connery picking the category Anal Bum Covers. LMAO
The wife is pretty pleased with herself for getting the correct Final Jeopardy answer, "Who is Rhett Butler?"
While watching Jeopardy nightly, I try to answer the Final Jeopardy question based on the category. Tonight's category: Literary Characters. I said, "Wow! That's a broad category... What is Rhett Butler?" After the commercial, they show the "answer" and the question actually was "Who is Rhett Butler?" My ESP is tuned in tonight!
Breaking Bad was the answer on Final Jeopardy tonight, hopefully you would've got that one right.
Final Jeopardy answer was Jay Z. Lady Mullet didn't get it. She loses.
And Susan B Anthony is the answer to Final Jeopardy tonight. All three contestants get it right. In honor of that get online and make a donation or better yet, become a MEMBER of the National Susan B Anthony Museum and House! The House can always use the support and is my favorite place in Rochester, NY.
Yesterday's 'Final Jeopardy' question was 'What is Duck Dynasty?'
Thought for the day: Well, after yesterday's trauma I was overdue for a little mitzvah. And it came at 7:30PM Eastern Time, 6:30 Central. That smug little *** Arthur Chu was finally defeated on âJeopardyâ! Just before the show I was talking with my co-conspirator Janet and told her that I didn't want to watch the show again until that dude was no longer on. A little sprinkle of fairy dust and my wish came true! Not only did he not win, but he lost in disgrace. He missed the Final Jeopardy question and, as he had bet it all, he got zero, ended in third place, and the $1,000 prize landed him just shy of the $300,000 mark to which Alex Trebek had alluded ad nauseam in the past couple of days. The new champion has a personality and some sense of humility. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus! Just jumpin' for joy! (Yes, I am a vicious queen)
'Jeopardy!' champ: Arthur Chu defeated after winning $297,200 âJeopardy!â champ Arthur Chu was defeated on the popular game show on ABC television after having won 12 days. In the time he continually won the game, he accumulated $297,200 in prize money, according to ABC on Wednesday. Alex Trebek gets revenge against Conan OâBrien âJeopardy!â host Alex Trebek summed it up by saying that Chu had âa great run.â On Chuâs final appearance on Wednesday, he came in third place with $0, however. He was at $6,400 going into the Final Jeopardy question and risked it all. The question he lost his money on during his last day on the show was: âHe was the last male monarch who had not previously been Prince of Wales.â The answer was George VI. Of the three contestants, only the new champion, Diana Peloquin of Ann Arbor, Michigan â got the answer correct. Chu made headlines in the first few days he was on the show by playing the game unconventionally. Rather than starting at the top of the board a ...

***This is amazing! Try to watch it! And read this: """This song & its title was an answer to a recent Final Jeopardy question -- only one person got it right -- question was (paraphrased) "What 1980s song do history teachers praise for its educational value?" Never could understand all the references on Billy Joel's song -- fortunately, with this VIDEO, given the picture(s), now can "see" what our "ears" couldn't. Anyway, checked to see purpose behind the song. Apparently, it's Joel's homage to the 40-years of historical headlines since his birth (1949). Wish we could have appreciated the depths of this song when it was released. Twenty years later, it's amazing what Joel was able to put into music and lyrics lasting only a few minutes. Here it is, set to pictures... . It's a neat flashback through the past half century. Turn up volume, sit back and enjoy a review of 50 years of history in less than 3 minutes! Thanks to Billy Joel and some guy from the University of Chicago with a lot of spare time and G ...
Curious about the Final Jeopardy from January 30th..and if anybody else noticed or thought there was an error...I am pretty positive the answer contained bad information. Category Comedic Actresses: Answer: She's won Emmys for 3 different TV shows & in 2013 She broke Lucille Ball's Record for most nominations by a comedic actress. The Question was Who is Julia Louis-Dreyfus. The problems is JLD has 16 Emmy Nominations (Though only 14 are as an actress as 2 are for her work as Producer of VEEP) Lucille Ball had 13 nominations (not all in comedy categories but mostly because they didn't differentiate in the early days as much as they do now.) Betty White however has 20 Prime-time Emmy nominations (plus another 2 daytime nods). 17 of her 20 nods in PT have been for comedic roles- all for acting, and she still has the record which she took from Lucille Ball some time ago and JLD has yet to catch her. (She has also won for 4 different series if you include SNL as she won for The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The John ...

Tuesday night's Jeopardy featured categories about the NHL, famous violinists, presidential alma maters, Disney movies and the Final Jeopardy was about the Titanic...I felt like Cliff Claven. I need to get on this show. Now.
I was appalled at Final Jeopardy today, incensed, outraged, flabbergasted (and really, when ya think about it, just a wee bit annoyed). The question involved a British Parliament member whose comment in 1912 noted that this famous Italian was perhaps more responsible than anyone for saving lives on the sinking Titanic. Two said---Galileo? The third, I have no idea who she was citing. The answer (and I coulda kicked three Final Jeopardy Butts up between their ears) was Marconi, inventor of wireless telegraphy. Boy, that show sometimes lets stupid people on there. I'm gettin' on. When the Final Jeopardy question is "He was the creator of the PEANUTS comic strip", I'll reply, dur, doi, FORMER SECRETARY OF STATE GEORGE SCHULTZ!
Itâll be amazing if my Final Jeopardy question is âWhat movie involved Bud âHaroldâ Cort and Richard Branson?â
Ever wonder where the expression âI for one welcome our new X overlordsâ came from? Wonder no more: For those not familiar with this now popular funny meme, the basic idea is to substitute X with any perceived extremely powerful entity that it would be futile to resist. A somewhat recent example of this can be seen when Ken Jennings, after losing to IBMâs Watson on Jeopardy! in 2011, wrote underneath his Final Jeopardy answer âI for one welcome our new computer overlords.â While youâll often read that this was originally a line spoken by actress Joan Collins in the 1977 film Empire of the Ants, this isnât correct. Nowhere in this movie does any actor or actress say that line. (As I was reading conflicting accounts of this from reputable sources, I confirmed it is not spoken in this movie by watching the whole amazing awful, yet surprisingly unintentionally humorous horror film where âA heavenly paradise becomes a hellish nightmare when a toxic spill turns harmless ants into gigantic ramp . ...

Geezer that I am, I remember when the dinner hour news on TV was 15 minutes long (1953, Nashville, TN: Douglas Edwards or John Cameron Swayze. Okay so I was in the 5th grade but I do remember). There was no local news on TV those years. Nowadays the combination of local and national news wants two hours out of our day. Here, if we are having dinner on the sofa we watch Jeopardy instead. Tonightâs Final Jeopardy category was âMovie Comediesâ. These comedies and teams immediately came to mind: Ma and Pa Kettle - The Egg and I and another 10 movies; Martin and Lewis - My Friend Irma and another 16 movies; Abbott and Costello - Buck Privates and another 38(!) movies. Another possible: The Long, Long Trailer with Lucy and Desi and Marjorie Main (Ma Kettle) from 1953, directed by Vincente Minnelli (Lizaâs dad). Either I pretty much stopped watching or they pretty much stopped making comedy movies after those years, until Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks came along. Any other nominations for Final Jeopardy â ...
Final Jeopardy question today was, "What country that has only 275 sq miles but has 4 official languages English, Tamil, Malay and Chinese."

On Vinegar:Â A Teaching Philosophy Theresa M. Senft Like many teaching philosophies, mine developed by accident,rather than design. One morning, I was on the way home from the market when I realized the bottom of my paper bag was soaked. At first I thought it was wet with water, but quickly realized by the smell that a bottle of white vinegar Ihad bought was cracked and had been leaking. After a few minutes of swearing (I had, after all, covered my work clothes in vinegar) I realized that I might have stumbled on a way to better teach students about performance and critical observation of media. Before leaving for school, I poured the vinegar into an empty Poland Springs water bottle. I then headed to class, where I told my students, "Write down everything you see, focusing on my actions here in the front of the room." For two minutes, I sat on my desk, looking out the window and taking occasional sips from my Poland Spring bottle. For two minutes, students dutifully took note of what I was wearing, how ...

I am still trying to figure out how I guessed it ... right on! :) Now, my view of the Mind is it can retain information, and recall it... which we all know... However, this was buried deep somewhere! LOL! That's why I really understand more, how what you eat, and what you think is important... I try to stay away from "stupid" ... LMBO!
I'm so smart! I just answered the Final Jeopardy! question correctly!!
Ohh yeah! Feeling good! I just got the final jeopardy question right!!!

One more trivia question for the night because Rod Bennett answered last one in light-speed. For the Final Jeopardy! clue of "Archibald Leach, Bernard Schwartz and Lucille LeSueur", who infamously responded to Alex Trebek with: "Who are three people who've never been in my kitchen."
Alex Trebek owes me money on Final Jeopardy; the category was "THE INTERNET" and the browser with the animal name was actually named for a red panda:

Sunrise Productions show, "Mrs Kaushik Ki Paanch Bahuien", on 'Zee TV', is all set to take an interesting twist, as the whole of Kaushik family, take a leap forward in future. Rageeni Nandwani, who plays the role of Lovely, on the show, gets into a time machine along with the family, which takes them ahead to the year 2030.
The production house is trying every trick in its book trying to make the show, as attractive as possible. Due to this leap, it becomes necessary to have some new characters being introduced on the show. Viewers will witness, Lovely and Karthik's daughter, Candy aka Sandhya, making her entry.

you're cute when you're angry
your eyes shine
and your mouth puckers.
you stamp your little foot
and your dimples show.
like i said, you're cute when you're angry.
only, you've never been angry with me.
and i wish you would.
instead of this messed up
fucked up dance
we make.
avoiding each other
and somehow coming together.
i don't care
i don't care how you dance
i don't care
i don't care what you dance
i don't care
all that i care about is
what you're dancing with me.
you're cute when you're angry
but you've never been angry with me.
just confusing.
and hurtful.
i want to see you angry with me.
i want you to yell
i want you to scream.
i want you to call me things
that are obscene.
but we never get angry.
we just get confused.
and somehow that's better
or at least
that's what we tell ourselves.
we tell ourselves we're happier
just ignoring each other.
when what we really want to do
is get mad at each other.
says things obscene.
you're cute when you're angry
but i'm just a perv.
thinking about such things.
i'm mad when i'm angry
and you don't want to see
so i'll be calm and cool
and wait until the end.

Great Britain's hopes of reaching a play-off tie for a place in World Group II suffered a setback as they went down 2-1 to Romania.
Heather Watson put Britain 1-0 up before Romania's Simona Halep levelled the tie to 1-1 ahead of the doubles match in Budapest.
The 21-year-old from Guernsey saw off world number 22 Sorana Cirstea with a 6-7 (7-9) 6-1 6-4 victory on court three at Syma Event and Congress Centre.
The British team, captained by Judy Murray, recorded a 2-1 win over Latvia on Wednesday in Pool B as they kicked off their campaign, but on Friday Johanna Konta suffered a straight-sets defeat to Romanian number one Halep as their opponents hit back to equalise.
Sydney-born Konta, was beaten 6-1 6-4 in Britain's second match of the day in Hungary.
And later, Watson and Jocelyn Rae teamed up to contest the doubles but fell to a 6-0 6-2 defeat against Irina-Camelia Begu and Monica Niculescu leaving Britain with a slim chance of going into the play-off against the Pool C winners.
Britain are one of 16 teams in Budapest this week aiming to clinch a play-off tie, but doing so without the services of British number one Laura Robson due to a wrist injury.
Murray's side next face hosts Hungary on Saturday.

Financial News
UBM In Talks Over Cut-Price Data Sale
UBM, the FTSE 250 media company which owns PR Newswire, is in talks to sell the world's biggest catalogue of forestry data for a knock-down price to a leading City investment firm.
I understand that Electra Partners, which includes the insurance company Esure among its investments, has entered a period of exclusive talks with UBM about acquiring its data services arm, four months after it was put on the block.
The talks have some way to run and may not result in a deal, according to people close to them.
Insiders said that UBM's price expectations had suffered a knock because of a jolt to the profitability of TechInsights, a division that provides data to intellectual property managers.
UBM's talks to sell the data arm comes as the company returns to the UK after a period of tax exile in Ireland. Government reforms to the way that overseas profits are taxed have led UBM and WPP Group to move their domicile back to Britain.
Electra's talks to buy the UBM unit are understood to value it at somewhere north of £100m, although at a lower price than some reports had suggested.
A number of other investment firms, including Nova Capital and Montagu Partners, had also expressed an interest in the business.
UBM and Electra declined to comment.

Dog Training
DOG TRAINING – with CROSSROADS / BEST BEHAVIOR DOG TRAINING PROGRAMS
Have the Dog you Always Wanted!
Our philosophy at Crossroads Pet Resort is simple…..Owning a dog is a life-long commitment. Every dog can benefit from training and every dog deserves training. Proper dog training can give you the control you need to enjoy your relationship with your dog to the fullest. Nobody wants a dog that is unruly or destructive. Such behaviors not only dampen the relationship between you and your dog, but can also impact your friends, family, and belongings. Too many dogs are relinquished to shelters never to come out again when some simple basic dog training would have prevented this tragic end. Let our positive-reinforcement based dog training techniques show you how to get the most out of your dog so you can develop a bond that will truly last a lifetime.
At Crossroads, we have a completely enclosed, disinfected, and safe environment in which to start working with puppies. In general, puppies can start training classes as early as 8 weeks of age, with one set of vaccines at least 7 days prior to the first class and a first deworming.
BUT, pets of any age in good health can be trained. You CAN teach an old dog new tricks!
Crossroads Pet Resort specializes not only in common behavior problems, such as house training, play biting, jumping on people, destructive chewing, barking, and digging, but we also are one of the few facilities who will work all levels of aggression, separation anxiety, fears, and phobias. We also train assistance/service dogs and offer therapy dog classes as well. No matter what your issues or your goals, give us a call for an evaluation to see what we can do for you! With over 30 years of dog training experience that few others can match, we are THE choice for all your training needs.
Training opportunities include:
- Bed, Breakfast and Training
- Private Training Sessions in our resort or at your home
- Daycare and Training
- Group Classes.
- Telephone Consultations (canine & feline)
All dog training is tailored to meet your needs and that of your dog. Regardless of the training program, behavior modification & practical obedience are taught with reward-based, positive methods that are fun and effective for dogs and owners. See why other owners have made us THEIR choice for all dog training needs.
Not sure what you need? Call NOW to set up an evaluation (714-821-6622). The evaluation fee is $35 and will be applied to any training purchase (except group classes).
Or fill out our Training and Behavior Questionnaire and we will call you to set up an appointment: http://www.tfaforms.com/279652

Living a conjoined life
Abby and Brittany Hensel are conjoined twins determined to live the normal, active life of outgoing 20-somethings anywhere. They have been to university, they travel, they have jobs. But how easy is it for two people to inhabit one body?
Like most 23-year-olds Abby and Brittany Hensel love spending time with their friends, going on holiday, driving, playing sport such as volleyball and living life to the full.
The identical, conjoined twins from Minnesota, in the United States, have graduated from Bethel University and are setting out on their career as primary school teachers with an emphasis on maths.
Although they have two teaching licences, there is one practical difference when it comes to the finances.
"Obviously right away we understand that we are going to get one salary because we're doing the job of one person," says Abby.
"As maybe experience comes in we'd like to negotiate a little bit, considering we have two degrees and because we are able to give two different perspectives or teach in two different ways."
Find out more
- The series Abby and Brittany: Joined for Life starts on Thursday 25 April
- 21:00 BST on BBC Three
"One can be teaching and one can be monitoring and answering questions," says Brittany. "So in that sense we can do more than one person."
Their friend Cari Jo Hohncke has always admired the sisters' teamwork.
"They are two different girls, but yet they are able to work together to do the basic functions that I do every day that I take for granted," says Hohncke.
The twins know each other so well that they often say the same things or finish each other's sentences, and are supportive and understanding of the other in all aspects of life.
Conjoined twins
- Conjoined twins develop from a single fertilised egg and are therefore always identical and of the same sex
- It is unknown why the embryo does not complete the process of separating into identical twins
- Records over the past 500 years have shown around 600 sets of conjoined twins survived infancy - more than 70% of these were female
- Despite medical advancements, surgical separation is still very rare today
With two sets of lungs, two hearts, two stomachs, one liver, one large intestine and one reproductive system, they have learned from a young age to co-ordinate their body, with Abby controlling the right hand side and Brittany the left.
There is a difference in height and at 5ft 2in (1.57m) Abby is taller than her sister Brittany who is 4ft 10in (1.47m). As their two legs are different lengths, Brittany has to stand on tip toe, on her leg, to ensure they maintain their balance.
They have had to learn to reach compromises on everything from what food they eat to their social life and even the clothes they wear.
"We definitely have different styles," says Abby. "Brittany's a lot more like neutrals and pearls and stuff like that and I would rather have it be more fun and bright and colourful."
While Abby is seen as the "outspoken" sister and will always win the argument about what they are going to wear, Brittany says her twin is also much more of a "homebody," whereas she prefers going out.
There are other differences too. Brittany is scared of heights, whereas Abby is not. Abby is interested in maths and science, while Brittany prefers the arts.
They also respond differently to coffee. After a few cups Brittany's heart rate increases, but Abby is not affected.
And they have different body temperatures.
"I can be a totally different temperature than Brittany would be," says Abby, "and a lot of times our hands are different temperatures, so I get super-hot way faster."
Why conjoined twins were once known as 'Siamese twins'
Conjoined twins Eng and Chang Bunker were born on 11 May 1811 in Siam, now called Thailand. They were joined at the chest and although the knowledge was not available at the time, it would have been possible to separate the twins using today's medical techniques.
At the age of 17 they joined Scottish merchant Robert Hunter's world tour exhibiting themselves. Their fame led to the term "Siamese twins" being coined to describe conjoined twins.
In 1839 they became American citizens and took the surname Bunker. Four years later they married two sisters Adelaide and Sarah Ann Yates. Chang had 10 children and Eng 11.
After suffering severe bronchitis, Chang died in January 1874 and Eng shortly afterwards. Their liver is on display at the Mutter Museum in Philadelphia.
Despite having a normal family and social life, studying and working like any other young women, they do face some additional problems.
For example, they have to put up with speculation about their private life - something they prefer not to discuss. The twins deny a rumour that Brittany has become engaged, describing it as a "dumb joke".
Travelling to a new country with friends on holiday is also not as straightforward for conjoined twins. They have two passports, but one ticket as they only take up one seat on the aeroplane. However they also have to be on their guard and more aware of entering crowded or confined spaces because members of the public will often try to take unwelcomed photographs.
As a close friend of the twins Erin Junkans says you always need to be alert because you never quite know how people are going to react or what they are going to say.
"I want to make sure that they're safe and that they're not completely exposed, definitely just standing in the way of pictures, just always keeping an eye on what's going on and just how the girls are reacting to the crowds," says Junkans.
"Sometimes if they get more overwhelmed then… we just need to get away from [the] area for a little bit, but they amaze me at their ability to just shake it off and keep seeing what we are there to see."
Conjoined twins are very rare - it is thought one in every 200,000 births - and around 40-60% of these births are delivered stillborn. Female siblings tend to have a better survival rate than male siblings.
Any operation to separate conjoined twins is a highly complex and dangerous process. It was a risk that Abby and Brittany's parents did not want to take for fear that one of the twins might not have survived the surgery or have the same quality of life they do now.
With possibly fewer than 12 adult pairs of conjoined twins across the world today, Abby and Brittany Hensel are defying the odds. Their mother, Patty Hensel, says her hopes and aspirations for her daughters' future are just the same as anyone else's.
Why do a TV documentary?
"We decided to do a series because it's fun and you can see a normal day-to-day life of who we are and what we do," says Brittany.
Abby says: "It's just going to be a fun thing for everyone to say, 'Oh they do do normal things and they have great friends and they're always doing something.
"It's normal what we do - our life isn't any different from yours."
"Like every mum would hope for, you want them to be successful and to be happy and healthy as they're being successful and that's what I want," says Patty Hensel.
As they embark on their working life together, the twins aim to take things day by day and do not tend to look forward to where they will be or what they will be doing in 10 years' time.
With their position as teachers they have become role models for children academically, but also in their attitude to life, overcoming any challenges.
"I don't think there's anything that they won't try or something that they couldn't be able to do if they really wanted to," says Paul Good, principal of the school where Abby and Brittany work.
"To bring that to children, especially kids who might be struggling, that's very special, that's learnt through lived example."
