Newcastle face another examination of their European credentials when they face Tottenham on Saturday evening. Up to now both sides have enjoyed excellent seasons and have exceeded expectations in their performances. The match has taken on an even greater intrigue following the departure of England Coach Fabio Capello. The respective managers are the highest performing English candidates in the league although are at very different stages of their careers. Harry Redknapp is the outstanding candidate to take over from Fabio Capello following his acquittal in a recent court case. Alan Pardew has been seen as an outside contender for the job although his odds have drifted in the past few days and he has declared himself out of the running.
Pardew has a number of injury problems to contend with as he looks to plot his team's first victory in the capital this season. Leon Best and Ryan Taylor were both substituted early against Aston Villa to add to his problems. Best will be out for several weeks after a scan revealed knee ligament damage while Taylor is suffering from tissue damage in his leg. With Yohan Cabaye set to complete the final part of his three match ban Pardew is likely to stick with combination of Danny Guthrie and James Perch. Few fans would have expected the duo to be playing together at all this season although they both performed well against Aston Villa. Perch in particular has exceeded expectations and there are signs he is becoming more comfortable playing at the top level. With the Ivory Coast qualifying for the African Cup of Nations final Cheik Tiote will not be available.
One of the manager's biggest decisions will be whether to gamble and play two forwards or try to keep the match tight. Given Demba Ba and Papiss Cisse explosive start to their new partnership it would be hard to leave either striker out. Tottenham have been strong at both ends of the field this campaign and boast one of the strongest midfields in the league, probably where Newcastle are weakest at the moment. When the two sides met earlier this season they drew 2-2 in an entertaining game.
It remains to be seen whether Hatem Ben Arfa will be involved after he failed to make an appearance against Aston Villa. With the right wing spot vacant Gabriel Obertan may get the nod due to his higher work ethic, even though he does not possess the skill of Ben Arfa. Pardew has once again challenged the enigmatic Frenchman to deliver. He told the Shields Gazette: "Hatem still hasn't quite grasped, in my opinion, this Premier League. He's got unbelievable talent, but he's not used to it. He's got to fight now to get in this team. He could still have a massive impact on this season, but we need to see him at his best. He isn't out of the picture yet."

1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4dr SUV 4WD
I am telling myself NEVER, NEVER again
buy a Jeep vehicle. Over $4,000 in
repair costs in just over 2 years.
Leaks in hoses, blown water pumps,
power windows completely failed & had
to replace, many electrical &
mechanical malfunctions & defects,
defective sensors, major transmission
& engine problems....etc. Don't forget
to consider the extremely poor resale
values due to Jeep's reputation for
poor quality & reliability. I've
concluded it would have been more
inexpensive to have bought a BMW or
Mercedes sports car than the Jeep...at
least those have high resale values.

I encountered several electrical problems with my 1999 Jeep Grand
Cherokee. The driver's/passenger's windows got stuck several times and I
had to visit the dealership on numerous occasions to have this problem
corrected. Also had a problem with the front brakes (disk) getting bent even
though the car had less than 20,000 miles and was driven carefully. The AC
(evaporator) also went bad and had to be replaced . A lot of my friends have
had similar experiences with their Grand Cherokee's as well. Car also had
several recalls (three) during the last three years, and due to the above
mentioned problems I will not purchase/lease a Grand Cherokee again..

I too have had trips to the dealership
to repair/replace brakes (twice),

leaking, rear shocks, front stabilizer

in for a 3rd time for brakes and only
has 30,400 miles on the vehicle. Since
it is out of the 3yr. warranty, the
kind man on the other end of the toll
free Chyrsler phone said they would
replace brakes, rotors, and calipers
for $50 cost to me. I feel they

1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4dr SUV 4WD
I had a 1988 Cherokee Pioneer and loved
that car. However, I have been
disappointed in this Jeep. The power
windows have each had to be repaired at
least twice. The weatherstripping keeps
falling off and although I have had it
in twice for the rear window
weatherstripping, it still leaks. I've
also had to take it in for at least
four recalls in the last three years.
It also has blind spots due to the
thick window supports -- I've nearly
gotten into two accidents because I
haven't seen cars coming toward me on a
curve. Would I buy another Jeep? Not

NASH COUNTY (WTVD) -- Nash County officials say three suspects went to a home on Monday with the intent to rob the homeowners.
According to authorities, 26-year-old Arrion Dickens dropped off 27-year-old Jesus Pryor and 22-year-old Justin Shaw at a home in Nashville to commit a robbery.
They say Pryor and Shaw waited for the homeowner to come home and held him at gun point.
The men demanded money from the homeowner and tied him up while waiting for his wife to return home.
Story continues belowAdvertisement
When the homeowner's wife entered the home, the suspects also held her at gunpoint and demanded money.
Police say Shaw then took one of the homeowners' vehicles and left while Pryor attempted to disable the phone lines to the home.
The homeowner was able to free himself, retrieve a gun in an attempt to stop Pryor. But Pryor pointed his gun at the homeowner.
The homeowner then fired at Pryor striking him in the arm and rear. Pryor fled from the home and was later found in the back of a pickup truck on Old Carriage Road near Spencer Cockrell Road.
Pryor was transported to Nash General Hospital and later transported to Pitt Memorial where he is in stable condition.
Dickens was located on Hargrove Street in Rocky Mount and was taken into custody. He is charged with first degree burglary and two counts of second degree kidnapping. He is being held in the Nash County Jail under a $55,000 bond.
Police are currently searching for Shaw. Authorities have warrants charging with two counts of second degree kidnapping and first degree burglary. The Nash County Sheriff's office is offering a $1000 reward for information leading to his arrest.
Police say warrants will also be obtained for Pryor once he is released from Pitt Memorial, charging him with two counts of second degree kidnapping and first degree burglary.
The investigation is continuing
This is the second such break in in a week in our county. I believe that these people would have been dead if they had not acted. Why else after robbing them and tying them up would the suspects have gone outside to cut there telephone wires???

Removing unwanted iOS devices from iTunes

Q: I inadvertently added my husband's iPhone to my iTunes account. When I am logged into my account, and I click on Library, 3 devices appear: my iPhone, my iPad and his iPhone. How do I remove it? I tried to go to the iCloud Manage My Accounts, but that option does not appear for me.
- Paige
A: This depends somewhat on exactly how you went about adding your husband's iPhone to your iTunes library or account.
From your description, it sounds like this is simply a result of plugging his iPhone into your computer. In this case, all that's really happened is that your husband's iPhone has become associated with your iTunes library. Normally, it would disappear as soon as you disconnect it, but since iTunes now supports Wi-Fi sync, his device will continue to appear in your Devices list so that you can access it for sync purposes. To remove it, simply select it from the Devices list and UN-check the option to "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi" and click the "Apply" button in the bottom right corner.
The iPhone should normally disappear from the Devices listing after you do this, but if it's still showing up there, simply click on the small "Eject" button to the right of the device name.
The only way that your husband's iPhone would actually be added to your iTunes Store account would be if you had logged in on his device using your Apple ID and password and then accessed an iTunes in the Cloud feature; this includes enabling automatic downloads of purchased content, re-downloading any previously purchased content from your iTunes Store account, or enabling iTunes Match. In this case, his device should appear under the Manage Devices section in your iTunes Store account information page. This can be accessed by going to the iTunes Store from within the iTunes app and selecting the Account option from the "Quick Links" section on the right side of the iTunes Store home page.
If his iPhone appears here, you can easily remove it, but there's also no real reason to be concerned unless you're nearing your ten-device limit as this association won't affect anything on his iPhone by itself. He may be prevented from using iTunes in the Cloud features on his own account for 90 days from the date his iPhone was first associated with your account, but unfortunately removing his device from here won't change this limitation. See iTunes in the Cloud limitations on iOS devices for more information.

Hi my have and I have the same apple ID and password for all 5 of or devices. We have 3 iPads and 2 iPhone 5's on the this account when I try to do an iCloud back up it tells me we don't have enough storage. How can I remove my devices and start my own account without losing my information? My iPhone and iPad don't have a lot of storage being used so I know that's not the problem. My wife uses her's for work so she uses more storage. Thanks for your time.

BSS® Audioâs Soundweb⢠London Networked Digital Signal Processors Provide the Backbone for Audio at the Computer History Museum
In January 2011, the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California completed a 2-year, $19 million renovation that included a total upgrade of its audio system. System designer Bowen Technovation turned to BSS Audio Soundweb London signal processors and networking products to serve as the backbone of the Museumâs large-scale audio system.
The Computer History Museum is located in the heart of Silicon Valley, an appropriate location for a facility dedicated to the preservation and celebration of computing history. The Museum is home to one of the largest international collections of computing artifacts in the world, including hardware, photographs, documents, software, movies and more.
âWe chose BSS Audio because we needed a system that could accommodate the signal distribution, processing and control needs of a large, complex networked audio installation,â? noted Bowen Technovation President, Jeff Bowen, whose company specializes in audio/video, lighting, control and production solutions for museums, planetariums, science centers and other facilities. The Museumâs BSS Audio equipment includes the BLU-160 signal processor, BLU-120 I/O expander and BLU-BOB2 (Break-Out Box) output expander. Each of these components feature the Soundweb London digital audio bus, which can carry up to 256 channels of digital audio over standard Cat5e cable. The entire audio system is networked using Harmanâs HiQnet® protocol.
âThe exhibit space has close to 100 video displays with sound, as well as four theaters,â? noted Bowen. âBecause of the long distances involved, extra care needed to be taken in the system design to ensure that signals from the control rooms reached their intended devices without loss of quality or dependability,â? continued Bowen. âIn addition, the exhibit space has an open design and achieving a good audio balance was a small challenge.â?
Bowen may be understating that a bit. âTuning each of the 100-plus audio systems took two days. The exhibits are very âliveâ acoustically and with so many audio systems in operation at the same time, I had to be creative in differentiating the different sonic spaces with the use of frequency filtering and volume level adjustments. For example, in the seven-screen Exit Theater the room had a peak around 100 to 200Hz that was bleeding into the adjacent exhibits. By using the BLU-160 to notch very specific frequencies out of the system we greatly reduced the resonant bleed. The Soundweb London software and its straightforward user interface greatly facilitated the process â especially considering we used extensive processing on every audio channel in the place.â?
âWe created customized control pages for the routing and management of all of the more than 100 audio channels,â? noted Bowen. âThe ease of using the HiQnet London Architect configuration pages and their drag-and-drop functionality allowed us to provide this heavily customized system. In particular, the stereo processing objects made my work in tuning the system much easier than if we had used certain other audio processors.â?
âWe even tied the BSS Audio network in with customized motion sensors that allow the volume in the exhibits to automatically reduce in level when no visitors are present, and ramp up the volume when someone walks into the exhibit.â?
âI believe the Computer History Museum is one of our best projects,â? concluded Bowen. âThe owner is very pleased with the results.â?

Overview Of The Debian GNU/Linux System
Since the beginning of the project, Debian has been designed with up-gradability in mind. Every component of the system can be easily upgraded with just a few simple tools. Packages installed with dpkg can be easily upgraded. All one needs to do is install any upgrade package normally, just as if installing it for the first time, and dpkg will automatically detect that an older version of the package is installed on the system and ask for confirmation that it should be upgraded. dpkg takes care of the rest, asking whether to replace configuration files, and notifying the user in the unlikely event that any manual steps need to be taken after the upgrade has been completed.
Similarly, the base system is upgradable, albeit by a slightly different method. Periodically, the Debian Linux Association will release upgrade packages to the latest release of the base system. Usually this will involve executing a script or a similar task. The upgrade process will always be simple and will usually be fully-automated.
The key point to make about upgradability in Debian is that the user need only install the base system once. Upgrade packages to the base system will be provided when a new version of the distribution is released, and packages in dpkg format will always be upgradable. In summary, the entire system will be upgradable with an absolute minimum amount of work on the user's part.
The current release of Debian may be found at the Internet FTP site sunsite.unc.edu in /pub/Linux/ distributions/debian. It is also available at a number of public "mirror" sites around the world; for details on how to obtain a complete and current list of mirror sites, please see below.
We have several e-mail lists set up for developers and the general public to use. Bruce Perens (firstname.lastname@example.com) is the manager of the lists and the moderator of debian-announce.
firstname.lastname@example.com A moderated mailing list for important Debian announcements (new releases, bug fixes, etc.)

For the latest Debian announcements and information, Debian users have one of three options:
Join the debian-announce mailing list. Please note that you do not necessarily have to be on the Internet to do this; many of the popular on-line services (CompuServe, for example) have Internet mail gateways. You may also join any of the other mailing lists from such an on-line service, but as many on-line services surcharge incoming and outgoing mail to the Internet you may wish to think twice before doing so. debian-announce is a moderated mailing list; the others are not and can be quite active.
Download the files in /pub/Linux/distributions/ debian/info on sunsite.unc.edu. These files contain detailed information about Debian and its motivations, the Debian Linux Association, where Debian can be obtained (FTP, BBS, etc.), where Debian and related materials can be ordered and so on.

A simple thanks to you sir...
What can I say? Debian is the best for me. I've been using Linux for about 10 months time and I started using Debian and get rooted on the feeling and taste of Freedom. Long Live F/OSS, Long Live Debian.
In Philippine Bisayan dialect: "Padayon sa pg-uswag Debian"
Thanks a lot!
Hi All Debianers,
This article was very emotional for me! I met Debian in 1999, it was love at first sight! :-) I have tried other distros also, but always returned to my roots!
Long live Debian! :-)
great work
Thank you, Ian and all Debianers! I am using Debian since 2004 and it's become my only OS.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Royals Swimmer Wins the Bronze
Royals freshman swimmer Matthew Josa donned the red, white and blue to represent the United States in the 2013 Junior World Championships, held in Dubai from August 26-31. Josa added to his accolades when he was named team captain and won a bronze medal in the 100 butterfly.
"It is very exciting that Matt was chosen captain of the USA team at the Junior World Championships in Dubai," said Queens head coach Jeff Dugdale. "Matt quickly bonded with his teammates before leaving for Dubai, and I know he served as a great leader throughout the competition."
Dugdale added that Josa's summer was exceptional and his times were fast enough to put him in the record books as the third fastest ever American in his age group. This showed during the championships when he faced off against against the top completion in the world during the 100 butterfly. Finishing the race with a 53.27, Josa was only two tenths of a second behind the gold medalist.
"I'm extremely grateful for this opportunity to represent the United States and Queens in Dubai," said Josa. "The Junior World Championships was a confidence booster and motivator in my swimming career. I'm really pumped for the upcoming season, and I can't wait to represent Queens and my fellow Royals in the pool."

Emily Jackson's paddling for two now—but it doesn't seem to be slowing her down. The 23-year-old kayaker won the women's freestyle kayaking event at the Payette River Games over the weekend, taking home the $4,000 prize despite being nine months pregnant with her first child.
Jackson, the daughter of dominant kayaker and boat designer Eric, said that her decision to compete was carefully thought-out. "I was told by several doctors that as long as I was doing what my body was accustomed to that it would be safe for me and my baby," she said. "With certain instructions such as avoiding impact, I knew what my limitations were and how to paddle within the limits." Jackson and husband Nick Troutman's first son is due July 19.

Historic Sailboat Vanishes
6 Americans on the ship
A historic racing sailboat and its crew of seven have vanished. The schooner, built in 1928, left port in New Zealand at the end of May. A week later on June 4, it dropped out of communication in "very rough," conditions with winds reaching 68 mph and in 26-foot swells, authorities said Thursday. The ship was heading toward Newcastle, Australia.
While the yacht is equipped with a tracking device, satellite phone, and emergency beacon, the ship's beacon has not been activiated. No vessels in the area report having seen the ship, and two extensive sweeps by reconnaissance aircraft have also came up negative.
"No sign of the vessel has been found," Rescue Coordination Centre New Zealand search and rescue mission coordinator Kevin Banaghan said. "We do hold grave concerns for the Nina and her crew but remain hopeful of a positive outcome."
The ship was carrying six Americans along with one British passenger.

STUDY: Longer Runs are Easier
Cause less inflammation and damage
Running 100 miles should be easier than pounding out 200, but a recently released study in the journal PLOS One suggests that longer races may be less fatiguing and damaging than their shorter counterparts.
Researchers tracked 25* male runners as they took place in the Tor des Géants, a race consisting of 24,000 meters of elevation change across 300 km of travel. Before, during, and after the race, researchers took blood samples from the runners (looking for markers of inflammation and muscle breakdown) and tested how much force their muscles could produce.
Compared to a group of runners competing in races a quarter to a half as long, the Tor des Géants racers showed less muscle damage, fewer inflammation markers, and less-altered neuromuscular function.
It's paradoxical, but longer races may actually be easier—in some respects—on the body, the study authors note, though the explanation is a bit of a letdown: In the longest of races, runners move at a lower intensity, leading to less damage.
"The pacing strategy (i.e. slow pace from the beginning of the race) and sleep deprivation that result in very low-intensity concentric/eccentric contractions preserve the neuromuscular function despite the apparent extreme difficulty of this event," the study authors wrote.
*Only nine runners completed the race and were available for testing at all three times.

Racer Plans to Fly Electric Plane Across Atlantic
Will re-trace Lindbergh's 1927 journey
Electric racer Chip Yates plans to re-make history, by re-tracing Charles Lindbergh's 1927 trans-Atlantic flight—in an electric plane of his own design. Yates, who set an unofficial electric motorcycle racing record for speed (190.6 mph) in 2011, is currently constructing the craft, which he predicts will have a nearly 100-foot wingspan.
The plane will be powered by an external battery pack, which will be periodically switched out during flight. Unlike the famed solar plane, the Solar impulse, whose average speed is about 31 mph, Yates hopes his electric plane will achieve speeds of nearly 100 mph. "Flying electrically, really slow, doesn't provide humanity anything," Yates told Wired.
Yates is 42 and only acquired his pilots license a year ago. At the plane's current speed, the flight will take him a little over 36 hours.

Direct fabrication of seamless roller molds with gapless and shaped-controlled concave microlens arrays |
Optics Letters, Vol. 37, Issue 21, pp. 4404-4406 (2012)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (335 KB)
This Letter demonstrates the direct fabrication of gapless concave microlenses on glass cylinders, which can be used as seamless roller molds for the continuous imprinting of large-area microlens arrays. The method involves femtosecond laser exposures followed by a chemical wet-etching process. A honeycomb-like concave microlens array was fabricated on a glass cylinder with a diameter of 3 mm. We demonstrated the flexibility of the method in tuning the shape and depth of the concave structures by the arrangements of the laser exposure spots and laser powers, and examined the replicating ability of the roller mold by the polymer castling method.

Editors' Top PicksSee All
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 hit retail this week. It's a great tablet, especially if you have specific needs for its stylus. Even if you don't, however, it still meets most of the tablet quality criteria. Also this week, Samsung released a well-designed book cover case, with features specific to the Note 10.1.
While it has most of the features you'd want in tow, it's expensive and the few features it lacks are significant.
Design and features
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Book Cover is a two-sided case made mostly of synthetic leather. The back cover feels reinforced and firm, while sporting a feltlike interior. The front cover is divided in three segments measuring 1.8 inches, 3.9 inches, and 0.8 inch. The front flap is more malleable, while sporting the same felt-feeling interior. On the front cover, written in gray is a Samsung logo at the top with "Galaxy Note 10.1" toward the bottom.
The tablet snaps into the bottom cover, first along the bottom and then at the top, securing it snugly in. The lower-right corner remains uncovered, keeping the tablet's built-in stylus holder clear. At the top edge is a hole for the headphone jack, and on the bottom edge are two 2-inch-long rubber bumpers on the right and left sides. The tablet can easily be removed from the case by pushing back on the plastic clamps on the top two corners. While it closes fine, it would close even better if there were some kind of lock for the front flap. Right now it feels a bit flimsily closed.
On the back cover is an opening for both the 5-megapixel camera and LED flash. That's great, but when you fold the front flap back (something you have to do to uncover the screen) the camera is then covered by the front flap, defeating the purpose of the flap in the first place.

Jessica Wade
AMES, Iowa – Jessica Wade of Woodbury County received a state 4-H leadership project award that includes a $100 savings bond from the Mary Jo and Glen Mente Endowment and the Iowa 4-H Foundation. Wade, 17, is the daughter of Richard and Colleen Wade of Sioux City.
During her eight years in 4-H, Wade has served as her club's president and vice president, on her county and area 4-H councils and as a National 4-H Congress delegate. She has also created a video library for the June E. Nylen Cancer center, led a Relay for Life team and helped lead her club in several community service projects, all of which have earned her recognition including the Danforth Leadership Award.
"I have learned that when I help others, especially when I volunteer at the stars program or the Challenger's League, I gain as much or more as the people I have volunteered to help," she said. "I am also most proud of my involvement in helping cancer patients since cancer has affected many of my club's and my own family members."
In addition to leadership, Wade has been involved in the poultry and dairy goat project areas while earning a state 4-H citizenship project award. She has earned local horse, rabbit and citizenship achievement awards and the Spirit of 4-H award. A current senior at Akron-Westfield High School, Wade has attended the Iowa 4-H Youth Conference.
"4-H has helped me gain a great appreciation for others," she said. "'To make the best better' is definitely a motto I will always live by. 4-H has given me leadership skills that will help guide me to a bright future."
For more information about 4-H, contact the Woodbury County office of Iowa State University (ISU) Extension. 4-H in Iowa is administered through the ISU Extension 4-H Youth Development program and headquartered on the ISU campus in Ames.

At the Big Ten Men's Soccer Championship today at the McClimon Soccer Complex, Michigan State came from behind to defeat No. 11 Penn State, 2-1, to advance to Sunday's championship game.
Penn State took an early lead, with senior Ricardo Villar beating MSU goalkeeper Mike Robinson on a penalty kick at the 15:16 mark. The Spartans then gained a man advantage in the 40th minute of play when Nittany Lion goalie Ryan Sickman was given a red card for playing a ball outside the box.
Michigan State evened the score at 1-1 at the 46:56 mark with Steve Arce scoring off a pass from Brett Konley. At 68:08, MSU earned the game-winner when Thomas Trivelloni put the ball in the back of the net off a pass from Jeffrey Krass.
The Spartans will face top-seeded Indiana at 2 p.m. Sunday to compete for the Big Ten title and the league's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.

TD-Complete Submission
What to expect when you're expecting (an acceptance letter)
4.15 / 5.00 4,374 ViewsVery few people saw part 1, so I've simply put parts 1 and 2 together to make one big movie. If you haven't seen part 1, start at the beginning, and if you have, you can start where part 1 originally left off.
thats a stylin peice of work you got there, its got some anime in it, some DBZ, it great!
like the choice of music, and the fight scene was pretty cool, im hopin theres more episodes to come
Very talented peice of work!
Loving every bit of it so make more!
This deserves a 4
So that's what I voted it. I've seen sprite films that take no artistic ability and have no plot get scores higher than this, which is complete bs considering this actually took some work (it's not stick figures) and it has a plot.
Not Bad
The graphics and the music to this was really good though I didnt like some of the cheesy 1 liners at the beginning though apart from that it was a pretty decent submission.
well that was a lot of tweening indeed...but it wasn't all that bad...it was hilarious how at some points you couldn't tween what you wanted so you had to change the scene/viewpoint....so that's why i gave it some points for humor.....
hmm. I took the liberty of checking out your large repertoir of movies, and found that not one of them is frame by frame. In fact, for the most part, they were absolute mindless dribble, "filled with tweening",and showing no skill in drawing or use of sound. Even if it was frame by frame, I couldn't have noticed, since there was so little movement. Maybe you should learn how to make a real cartoon, period, before you insult my methods.
As a Flash Artist: I give you 10 for humor, because you suck so bad, it's absolutely hilarious.

The post Things to do in Montreal: November 28 to December 4 appeared first on Tourisme Montréal Blog.
]]>(gift shopping) The magic returns to the Palais des Congrès until December 7, for the fifth annual Nutcracker Market by Les Grands Ballets de Montréal. Find the toys, jewelery, knits and tasty treats you need for your list, and help out The Nutcracker Fund for Children, which supports all sorts of arts and culture initiatives for kids. The annual and beloved Souk@SAT is back too this weekend and until December 30: this holiday bazaar unites the contemporary creations of over 70 local artists, designers and craftspeople. Souk@SAT takes over the entire Society for Arts and Technology building to showcase fantastic purchasable fashion, home décor, toys, accessories and more. Get a dose of Santa at Plaza St-Hubert this Friday, November 28, during the 10th anniversary of the Défilé des rêves holiday parade: activities, music and merriment are on the menu. And while you're there, help the Plaza's plenitude of small independent stores fight the mega-chain domination of Black Friday, in keeping with the Mes achats, mon quartier initiative. After all that shopping, you may want to refuel: head to Regalo, the new pop-up Christmas market in Little Italy, from December 4 to 7. Sample Italian delights as you shop for cute design objects.
(wine and dine) Speaking of delightful flavours, how about a jaunt at La fête des vins du Québec? From November 28 to 30 at the beautiful Marché Bonsecours in Old Montreal, discover a dynamic selection of Quebec wines, plus the cheeses, chutneys and spreads that go so well with them. Talk about an easy way to warm up the giving season!
(smart art) The great Iranian-American artist Shirin Neshat is in town this week for a talk and a screening of her brand new film, Illusions & Mirrors, starring Natalie Portman. Presented at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts by the Biennale de Montréal and the Canadian Art Foundation, the lecture is on Friday, November 28 at 7 pm for a mere $5. For some local art, head to Galerie Hughes Charbonneau before December 20 for a solo exhibition by acclaimed (and very collectible) photographer Alain Paiement – or, also until December 20, discover the galvanizing paintings of young artist Aidan Pontarini at the Belgo's Galerie Lilian Rodriguez. They're funny, they're moving, they're disturbing. On Saturday, November 29, Galerie Joyce Yahouda presents New York arts luminary Anthony Haden-Guest, in addition to the technicolour painted universes of Montreal artist Benjamin Klein and a thought-provoking installation about sexual abuse by Céline B La Terreur. Don't miss a live interview between Factory fixture Haden-Guest and yours truly just before the vernissage, at 3 pm on Saturday.
(stage arts) You only have five chances between now and November 29 to head to MainLine Theatre and see No One Like Hugh, a mistaken-identity comedy in homage to Shakepeare, featuring cross-dressing, so-called identical twins, a misunderstood fool and a dose of dark sorcery. On Wednesday, December 3, Gleams Theatre presents the Canadian premiere of Where Were You When I Was Coming, at 7:30 pm at Hotel Auberge Manoir Ville-Marie. This performance of the contemporary comedic piece written by C. S. Hanson also celebrates the company's 10th anniversary. And starting on December 3 and running until December 7, don't miss The Pipeline, the annual series of free public play readings presented by Infinithéâtre. Held at Mile End's glitzy Rialto Theatre, the readings this year include Fanny La Croix's Joan's Not Here, Tabia Lau's John 8, Oren Safdie's Mr. Goldberg Goes to Tel Aviv, Alyson Grant's Progress! and Arthur Holden's Battered.
(live music) On November 28, you've got some tough choices to make: Blonde Redhead plays Club Soda, but adoptive homeboy Buck 65 also rocks the night at Virgin Mobile Corona Theatre, and, a few blocks away, The Tea Party takes over Metropolis. Gah! What to do? Get a taste of local hair rock and bask in the sex appeal of Jonas & the Massive Attraction at Virgin Mobile Corona Theatre on November 29. On November 30, it's a dilemma between the speedy ska rock of Lagwagon at L'Olympia de Montréal, the party electro of College at La Vitrola and the full-on club house of Dillon Francis at New City Gas. December 1 brings instrumental progressive metal band Animals as Leaders to Club Soda for what promises to be a good, gritty show, and then on December 2, you'll want to head to Divan Orange for a 5 à 7 video launch for newcomer on the scene Aarmadillo, a bilingual cross between Patrick Watson and Elliott Smith. On December 4, set your sights on Bar Le Ritz PDB for a show of hot'n'heavy atmospherics by Maica Mia, featuring Last Ex.

]]>Spring arrives in Montreal slowly but colourfully: the butterflies fly at the Botanical Gardens and Major League Baseball hits it out of the park, er, stadium, and the delicious joys of sugar shack season abound alongside international film, opera, art and dance, and mind-blowing rock shows…
(seasonal eating) A Quebec tradition continues well into April as sugaring-off season brings maple-syrup sweetness to the table: eat everything from sausages and pancakes to meat pie and gourmet specialties at local sugar shacks or just outside the city, where walks in the woods and sleight rides round out the experience. Go for a traditional, fried-up British meal at the city's best fish and chips restaurants or more refined fare at the city's tea rooms. And trust Montreal's wine bars and our guide on Where to Go Drink in Montreal for whatever wets your whistle.
(spring fever) As the snow begins to melt on the Montreal streets, indoors at the Montreal Space for Life, spring is in full bloom – watch thousands of butterflies fly free at the Botanical Garden's Main Exhibition Greenhouse until the end of April, and while there, visit the plants and animals at the Biodôme's micro-ecosystems, look deep into outer space at the Planetarium. For the first time in a decade, Major League Baseball will be played at the Olympic Stadium on March 28 and 29, the Toronto Blue Jays take on the New York Mets – there's even an official tailgate party with beer, BBQ and DJs starting three hours before each game. Yet outdoor winter sports season isn't quite over, at least in the city's large parks: snowshoe and possibly even ice skate at Mount-Royal, Parc Jean-Drapeau, and Park Lafontaine – or head down to the Old Port of Montreal for some ice fishing.
(theatre & dance) Hänsel Und Gretel enthrals as the Opéra de Montréal, the National Circus School and the National Theatre School of Canada collaborate to bring the classic tale, with music by Engelbert Humperdink, to life – catch the final performance March 29 at Place des Arts. Also at PDA, the brilliant Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan performs Songs of the Wanderers, inspired by Herman Hesse's novel Siddhartha and featuring 24 dancers, Georgian songs and 3.5 tonnes of rice, at Place des Arts, to March 29. For the kids, Disney's Live Rockin' Road Show makes a stop at Theatre St-Denis with a full cast of Disney favourites – see English-language shows on March 28 and 30. Famed Canadian filmmaker Norman McLaren merges with the dance world in dancer and choreographer Peter Trosztmer's captivating homage, to April 12 at PDA. In theatre, the fast-talking, quick-selling style of David Mamet's classic Glengarry Glen Ross adds its wit and colourful language to the Segal Centre stage, to March 30, while Old Montreal's Centaur Theatre transports us to World War I era Montreal in David Fennario's politicized drama Motherhouse. And Francophone performance festival Vue sur la Relève brings theatre, dance and music to multiple venues in the city beginning April 2.
(film & art) See an array of art films, on subjects ranging from painting to comic books to dance and music, during the final weekend of the 32nd edition of the International Festival of Films on Art - screenings include Mark Gatiss's Horror Europa, Sylvie Collier's Cuba-based dance film To Dance Like a Man, historical-footage music film Cracked Actor: David Bowie, doc Werner Herzog: Beyond Reason, a 360-degree projection of Escher's Universe at the SAT dome, and much more. Christian Marclay's must-see film-collage The Clock screens at Musée d'art contemporain and Albanian-born, Milan-based artist Adrian Paci's film, painting, sculpture and installation work shows to April 20, while the joint exhibition of contemporary art, 1+1=1 is at the MMFA alongside Peter Doig's beautiful painting exhibition, No Foreign Lands. Over 70 interactive media art exhibitions and performances at venues across the city mark the inaugural edition of Montreal Digital Spring, from March 21 to June 21. And Old Montreal factory-turned-gallery Darling Foundry shows Nicolas Lachance's painting exhibition Framing Smoke and Thomas Bégin's immersive sound installation of recycled musical equipment, Byte by Byte. And if you're in the market for art, check out our Guide to Montreal's Commercial Art Galleries.
(live music) Lots of ways to rock this Friday night: from the dude-bro pop of Hedley on March 28 at the Bell Centre to the indie-rock style How To Dress Well, with openers Forest Swords and D'Eon at the SAT, or opt for the nu-'80s excellence of Dum Dum Girls at Il Motore or Montreal's solidly loud 'n' cool Solids, playing two shows March 28 and 29 with all kinds of rocked-out openers and DJ sets at TRH Club. On Saturday night, post-teen pop-star Miley Cyrus crashes Montreal's Bell Centre, while LA-based DJ duo Classixx gets the dance floor hopping at the SAT. On Sunday, March 30, German legends in electronic music, Kraftwerk, let the computer love flow in a 3D spectacle at Metropolis, while NYC indie-pop (bordering on bubble-gum) band AJR plays Sala Rossa. On Monday, March 31, Austin, Texas indie-rockers Okkervil River bring the good ol' times to Sala Rossa. On April 2, clean-cut pop-rock band R5 gets fans screaming at Metropolis, award-winning Montreal singer-songwriter Ian Kelly keeps toes tapping at Théâtre Corona, and Vancouver hip-hop SonReal shakes up Cabaret Underworld. On April 3, bad-boy Canadian rock star Hawksley Workman teams up with Steve Bays (of Hot Hot Heat) and Ryan Dahle (of Age of Electric) to form Mounties, joined by openers The Zolas and James Younger at Cabaret Mile-End, Quebecoise star soprano Karina Gauvin sings Britten and more with the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, and Irish singer-songwriter James Vincent Mcmorrow, known for his cover of Steve Winwood's Higher Love, comes to town with Aidan Knight at Club Soda.

]]>The post Freak Out at the 2013 Fantasia Film Festival appeared first on Tourisme Montréal Blog.
]]>Films that frighten, films that shock and films that provoke laughter, sometimes all at the same time, are the meat (and gristle and bone) of the Fantasia International Film Festival…
After 17 years, the Fantasia International Film Festival is still renowned for its world premiers and rare finds in the horror, thriller and fantasy genres, with a strong emphasis on bringing Asian films to a wider audience. This year, from July 18 to August 7, choose from among 120 feature films, along with 200 shorts, numerous Q&A sessions with directors and actors, a live theatrical production and outdoor screenings of classic cinema.
Fantasia 2013 opens with one of the biggest names on the Asian-horror scene: Takashi Miike. The Japanese director's newest film, Shield of Straw, is a thriller that tracks a manhunt for a killer and the moral dilemmas therein. Miike's 2012 film, the deranged Lesson of the Evil, also gets its deserved Canadian premier at the festival. Creepiness abounds in festival co-opener, The Conjuring, American director James Wan's horror-suspense film based on a true story of paranormal events at a secluded farmhouse, starring Vera Farmiga (Up in the Air). Another big name closes the festival: Edgar Wright (Shaun of The Dead, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World) is in town to host a screening of his newest film, The World's End, the tale of five friends on a pub crawl that becomes a fight to save humanity.
International and Canadian premiers are left, right and centre at Fantasia, such as Joe Swanberg's erotic thriller 24 Exposures, Toya Sato's reboot of 1970s Japanese anime series Battle of the Planets, retitled Gatchaman, V/H/S 2, an intense horror-film anthology created by the same people who brought us the Blair Witch Project and Richie Mehta's I'll Follow You Down, starring Gillian Anderson (pictured at top). Humour and horror get along fine at this year's festival, especially in Don Mancini's newest in the Chucky series and a return to bloody-horror form, Curse of Chucky, with the director and cast members fielding questions at the screenings, and in Mike Mendez's Big Ass Spider, which is exactly what it sounds like: a spider hell-bent on eating Los Angeles. The timeless American western is no stranger to the festival either: this year, see Sweetwater, starring January Jones and Eduardo Noriega as upstanding farmers in an immoral society run by violent criminals and a half-mad sheriff, played by Ed Harris.
In a fitting tie-in to the summer vacation season, Canadian film Cottage Country, starring Malin Ackerman and Tyler Labine, brings some good old-fashioned cabin-in-the-woods suspense to the fest. And Taiwanese director Hou Chi-Jan reflects Fantasia's penchant for quirky, romantic, yet bizarre films in his When a Wolf Falls in Love with a Sheep, while Satoshi Miki's It's Me, It's Me goes from quirky to freaky faster than the fastest of zombies. Which, coincidentally, prove their continued popularity, in film at least, in the post-apocalyptic Zombie Hunter, starring Machete's Danny Trejo. Hong Kong-based director Johnnie To delves further into the gangster-suspense genre (popular at Fantasia) in Drug War; and Croatian director Branko Schmidt offers up Vegetarian Cannibal, darker and more subversive than its title suggests.
Fiction and fantasy aren't the only obsessions of Fantasia: documentaries are hot too, and this year's docs shed light on some behind-the-scenes movie action. Jeffrey Schwartz's I Am Divine, an official selection of the SXSW music festival, looks at the life of John Waters collaborator Divine, otherwise known as performance artist Harris Glen Milstead; the brother of Tom Berninger, frontman of rock band The National, follows the band on tour in Mistaken for Strangers; the now-retro and almost-obsolete VHS tape is the subject of Rewind This; and peek into the dark side of the '70s in Sheldon Renan's The Killing of America. And this year's offers something a little different for a film festival: horror writer Clive Barker's play The History of the Devil, the story of a lonely Satan who stages a trail to be allowed back into heaven, in a live a three-night run at Place des Arts, produced by Montreal's Title 66 Productions.
Fantasia doesn't limit itself to the confines of air-conditioned theatres, taking advantage of the fine summer weather to host several outdoor screenings. On July 22, the fest joins Just for Laughs at the festival's Videotron Stage outdoors in the Quartier des Spectacles to go back in time to the silent era: watch three comedy classics starring comedy legends Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton and Laurel and Hardy, with composer Gabriel Thibaudeau playing rousing piano accompaniment. And right before the festival official begins, Fantasia Under the Stars screens films downtown at Parc de la Paix next door to the SAT on St-Laurent, July 10-11 and July 13-14, setting the mood each night at 7 p.m. with a gourmet BBQ eats and electronic-music DJs, followed by films at 9 p.m. See South Korean director Yim Pil-Sung's Hansel & Gretel (French subtitles) on July 10 and, on July 11, a series of fake horror movie trailers put together by Quebec horror-fiends Pierrot Néron and Carnior. On July 13, see three episodes of the 1975 Japanese sci-fi TV show The Goldorak Event and on July 14, see 1975 Italian cult film A Genius, Two Friends and an Idiot. Outside under the stars or indoors in the dark, Fantasia consistently brings the strange, scary and suspenseful to town.

]]>The post THINGS TO DO IN MONTREAL: OCTOBER 5-11 appeared first on Tourisme Montréal Blog.
]]>(fabulous food) Thanksgiving wouldn't be complete without a proper feast or three, so if on October 5 you're in the area of Olympic Park, wandering through the Botanical Gardens or visiting the Biodome at the Space for Life, stop in at the stadium's outdoor grounds where their First Fridays event features gourmet food from some of Montreal's fanciest food trucks: tacos at Grumman 78, burgers at Winneburger, sandwiches, poutine and more from Lucky's Truck and La Mangeoire, ice cream and sundaes at Monsieur Crémeux, coffee at Café Dispatch, and more, starting at 4 p.m. On October 11, caterer and food enthusiast Nicolina Servello pairs cook books with delicious rustic food in an afternoon event at Indigo Place Montréal Trust, noon to 2 p.m.
(fall film) New feature films, fantastic shorts and experimental video work from around the world all come out to play at Montreal's Festival du Nouveau Cinéma, October 10-21. Along with plenty of international fare, the fest features some of the best sort of Canadian content in Ang Lee's Life of Pi, based on Montreal author Yann Martel's novel, opening films Simon Galiero's La Mise à l'aveugle and Martin Villeneuve's Mars et Avril, screenings of work by French singer Albin de la Simone, Sarah Polley's new film Stories We Tell, Albert Nerenberg's witty doc Boredom, and many more. As well, the popular Temps Ø program continues this year with off-the-beaten-track features, shorts and documentaries.
(dance party) The Black and Blue Festival is all about making this weekend into a three-day LBGT-and-friends party, culminating in a massive all-night, all-morning, three-room dance party a Palais des Congrès on October 7, with DJs Gareth Emery, Sander van Doorn, David Morales and more. On Saturday afternoon and evening at Palais des Congrès, get lost in free live music and entertainment event, De-Light, with entertainment from Debbie Tebbs, The Easton Ellises, Donzelle and other great Montreal performers. Of course, there's also the night-time party rituals of Leather Ball on October 5 and the HardBall on October 6 at Club Soda.
(world-class performance) Les Grands Ballet Canadiens pulls out all the stops October 11-27 with choreographer Jiří Kylián's Kaguyahime, The Moon, a ballet based on a culturally influential 10th-century Japanese folk tale of beauty, violence and worlds colliding. On a different note, The Segal Centre presents big-time Tony-award winning musical Guys and Dolls, to October 28. At the Centaur Theatre, see family drama August, An Afternoon in the Country by award winning playwright Jean Marc Dalpé. And French circus troupe Akoreacro positively delights with their acrobatic, musical circus Pfffffff, while Montreal-based circus Cirque Éloize blends circus arts with hip hop and breakdance in all-ages show iD, featuring 14 high-energy performers, both at Montreal circus centre La Tohu to October 6.
(art & architecture) Two new exhibitions at the Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal are both real eye-openers: an amazing retrospective of the work of Montreal painter Pierre Dorion, and intriguing videos focused on far-off places and people by Brooklyn-based artist Janet Biggs – the MACM also holds its monthly Nocturnes music series on October 5, featuring Tanuki, 7 p.m. The Canadian Centre for Architecture opens its exhibition First, the Forests, looking at the relationship between forestry, planning and design. And definitely go to the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts to see their outstanding Tom Wesselmann retrospective show, which closes this Sunday, as well as their expanded permanent collection. See the Montreal Buzz Fall Arts Guide for more ideas.
(comedy & cabaret) On the stranger side of entertainment – and Montreal's got a lot of that – comedy show Let's Do This!, a night of comedy and drinking games, headlined by DeAnne Smith, on October 11 at Mainline Theatre, 9 p.m. On Saturday, October 6, Quality Theatre hosts not only a sing-along to The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but a full-on band, comedians and a bevy of sexy burlesque performers, also at Mainline Theatre, 8 p.m.
(jazz off) The Montreal International Jazz Festival may get most of the summer jazz hype in this town, but all that jazz and more goes on throughout the year: check out The OFF Jazz Festival, October 4-12, with shows (some of them free!) at several venues around town, featuring traditional and experimental jazz from local and out-of-town musicians and bands, including pianist Baptiste Trotignon, saxophonist Anna Webber, Ironico Orkestra, Jean Derome and many, many more.
(more music) A busy Friday night begins the music week with Swedish folk-pop musician Jens Lekman at Le National, while DJ Shadow plays what's sure to be a sweet DJ set at SAT, arts and activism group Howl presents eclectic Montreal rock-tinged ensembles Léopard et Moi and Avec le Soleil Sortant de sa Bouche, at Sala Rossa, and How to Dress Well gets Club Lambi electro-hopping. Also on Friday, Montreal Symphony Orchestra conductor Kent Nagano teams up with DJ Champion, while on Sunday he conducts the orchestra through The Rites of Spring. More big tours make Montreal stops at rock venue Metropolis this week: on Saturday, October 6, see Irish indie-rockers Two Door Cinema Club, on October 7 it's electronic party makers Crystal Castles with openers Health and more, followed on October 9 by ever-popular singer-songwriter Regina Spektor and captivating British singer Joss Stone on October 10, while French trip-hop DJ Wax Tailor (http://waxtailor.com/) spins cinematic electronic grooves at L'Astral that night.

]]>The post IMAGE+NATION: MONTREAL'S LGBT FILM FESTIVAL appeared first on Tourisme Montréal Blog.
]]>Image+Nation LGBT International Film Festival invites filmmakers from all over the world to share their stories. Stories of social issues, cultures, love and lust. They offer unique and different perspectives on life, not specifically aimed at gay people who like movies, but anyone who supports the LGBT community.
The festival will open on Wednesday, October 26 at 8:00 PM with Tova Magnusson-Norling's Four More Years, a Swedish comedy about a politician and a Minister of State who embark on a funny and complex love affair. After 11 days of cinema, the festival will close with Leave it on the Floor, a musical comedy directed by Sheldon Larry. The story follows Brad, who is kicked out of his home by his homophobic mother and finds himself in the L.A ball scene. This film blew up at the Toronto International Film Festival, and is apparently destined to become a cult classic.
A staple of queer cinema will return for a special 20th anniversary presentation. The emotional and evocative documentary, Paris is Burning, will once again bring us back to the piers of Chelsea and the roots of drag culture.
The fest will also play host to a talk by film critic, author and lecturer Matthew Hays examining the 30th anniversary of HIV/AIDS. Hays' talk will be accompanied by a screening of We Were Here by David Weissman, a film that chronicles the AIDS crisis in San Francisco through a series of intimate interviews. The festival will also pay homage to the late actress and HIV/AIDS activist Elizabeth Taylor with screenings of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and Reflections in a Golden Eye.
The real beef of the festival comes in the huge collection of short films and documentaries from around the globe. The impressive roster of documentaries this year looks at homosexuality in traditionally non-accepting cultures around the world. I AM by Sonali Gulati and Wish Me Away by Bobbie Birleffi and Beverly Kopf look the most interesting to me!

Miguel Montero (C)
Chicago Cubs
By Evan Triantafilidis, Cubs Correspondent, Wed, Dec 10th 12:59pm EST
The Chicago Cubs acquired catcher Miguel Montero for two minor league pitching prospects. (Source: ESPN)Fantasy Impact: The two-time All Star catcher will add a much-needed left-handed bat to the Chicago lineup. Montero was the longest-tenured Diamondback, but will now be behind the plate in Wrigley Field with his defensive specialties. The 31-year-old catcher is capable of hitting .280 as seen in past years, and he could launch himself into the top-10 catcher discussion with an impressive start in Chicago.

It is no secret the Cubs want to upgrade at the catching position this off season. After losing out in signing Russell Martin, the Cubs have turned their attention to Miguel Monetero. Sources believe the Cubs have made offers to the Diamondbacks to acquire Montero's services. (Source: Chicago Tribune)Fantasy Impact: Montero would bring another needed left handed bat to a predominantly right handed lineup. He would also be an upgrade defensively over Wellington Castillo, especially when it comes to framing pitches. Only a .243 hitter last season, Montero is only two years removed from a .286, 15 home run and 88 RBI season. Maybe a change of scenery would help return Montero to his pre-2013 numbers, when he was a top 5 catching option in fantasy.
