An account of Walt Disney's twenty-year pursuit of the film rights to P.L. Travers' popular novel, Mary Poppins, and the testy partnership the upbeat filmmaker develops with the uptight author during the project's pre-production in 1961.
When Walt Disney's daughters begged him to make a movie of their favorite book, P.L. Travers' "Mary Poppins," he made them a promise—one that he didn't realize would take 20 years to keep. In his quest to obtain the rights, Walt comes up against a curmudgeonly, uncompromising writer who has absolutely no intention of letting her beloved magical nanny get mauled by the Hollywood machine. But, as the books stop selling and money grows short, Travers reluctantly agrees to go to Los Angeles to hear Disney's plans for the adaptation.For those two short weeks in 1961, Walt Disney pulls out all the stops. Armed with imaginative storyboards and chirpy songs from the talented Sherman brothers, Walt launches an all-out onslaught on P.L. Travers, but the prickly author doesn't budge. He soon begins to watch helplessly as Travers becomes increasingly immovable and the rights begin to move further away from his grasp.
It is only when he reaches into his own childhood that Walt discovers the truth about the ghosts that haunt her, and together they set Mary Poppins free to ultimately make one of the most endearing films in cinematic history.

text: The book is generally good but the thing i didn't like about it is the constant talk of 16yr olds wanting babies put their stomach or wanting to avoid babies put in their stomach. It comes across as very weird and disconcerting. The other thing is that there are a few tasteless descriptions eg someone says to another you look hungrier than a Jew in a concentration camp... really?? Because this book isn't meant to be a 'dark' book some conversations between charecters are in poor taste. Other than those two complaints, the book is really easy to follow and has an exciting storyline that will keep you hooked.

Seahawks' Sherman Signs Richest Cornerback Deal at $57.5 Million
May 8 (Bloomberg) -- Richard Sherman became the highest-paid cornerback in the National Football League by signing a new four-year, $57.5 million contract with the Super Bowl-champion Seattle Seahawks.
Sherman, 26, has been selected to the NFL's All-Pro team each of the past two seasons while totaling 16 interceptions. He was set to make $1.4 million this season in the final year of the rookie contract he signed with Seattle in 2011.
Darrelle Revis, formerly of the New York Jets and Tampa Bay Buccaneers and now with the New England Patriots, had been the NFL's highest-paid cornerback with $12 million in salary and bonuses set for 2014. Sherman said his new deal includes $40 million in guaranteed money and will pay him an average of $14.4 million annually.
"The goal has always been to stay in Seattle and continue to play for the Seahawks," Sherman said yesterday in a blog post. "With this chapter closed, I can continue to focus on what is important -– defending our Super Bowl championship and being the best cornerback in the NFL."
The Seahawks last week signed Earl Thomas to a contract extension that makes him the top-paid safety in the NFL at $10 million per season, according to the Seattle Times. Thomas, 25, was an All-Pro each of the past two seasons.

If you are a FTM like me, what has surprised you the most about being a mom? What has been the hardest things you've encountered so far? What was the best advice you received beforehand?
For me, the fact that breastfeeding doesnt happen so easy in the beginning was something I wish I had known beforehand. Although I still nurse now, the very beginning was incredible difficult and frustrating for me.
I wish someone had told me that terrible 2's can start as early as 1. Lol. And although this was the best advice
i received beforehand, I still wish I had been informed of the severity - Get your sleep while you can!!

This product is touted as a two-in-one lip balm and cheek color, but in reality it only functions properly as a lip product. It has a smooth, moisturizing texture and shiny, sheer pink finish. The texture is appropriate and pleasant to the touch when used on the lips, but it's far too greasy on the cheeks, making them look unusually oily. Another issue that arises if you apply it to your cheeks is that it catches stray hairs unless you're sporting a ponytail or a hairstyle that is swept away from your face. In addition, a major downfall of the formula, no matter which way you use it, is the inclusion of fragrance, which isn't good for lips or cheeks (see More Info to find out why). Overall, you're paying way too much for a product that performs like a basic tinted lip balm.
More Info:
Givenchy claims the formula contains "pigments that react with the skin's humidity to create a personalized hint of color," but don't buy into that hype. What you really get is a sheer pink color that adds to your natural base lip color; nothing unique or "personalized" about it.
In regard to the fragrance: Daily use of products that contain a high amount of fragrance, whether the fragrant ingredients are synthetic or natural, causes chronic irritation that can damage healthy collagen production, lead to or worsen dryness, and impair your skin's ability to heal. Fragrance-free is the best way to go for all skin types (Sources: Inflammation Research, December 2008, pages 558–563; Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, June 2008, pages 124–135, and November-December 2000, pages 358–371; Journal of Investigative Dermatology, April 2008, pages 15–19; Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, March 2008, pages 78–82; Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, January 2007, pages 92–105; and British Journal of Dermatology, December 2005, pages S13–S22).
Givenchy At-a-Glance
Strengths: Incredibly smooth powder textures that are easy to apply and enliven skin; great powder blush and bronzers.
Weaknesses: Expensive; most of the products are fragranced (some highly so); disappointing primer and mascaras; average concealers and highlighters; few options without shine (shine is definitely not for everybody).
Like Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, and Dior, Givenchy has established a global fashion empire that includes makeup and skin-care products (which are not reviewed at this time). While these French design companies know a great deal about fashion, their venture into makeup is more about style and packaging flamboyance than it is about the products' actual performance; that is, far more form than function.
Givenchy's sleek, chic packaging and designer prices are, for the most part, below par and not worthy of their cost. Adding to the less-than-stellar product selection is the fact that Givenchy products contain noticeable fragrance, which makes them even less desirable, at least for the long-term health of your skin. Fragrance (especially from multiple products worn at the same time) can cause irritation that hurts your skin's healing process and its ability to look and act younger.
Of course, there are some great products in this line, but despite our enthusiasm for them, they offer nothing that hasn't been done just as well (or better) by many other lines, whose prices aren't based on a couture fashion house's reputation. Still, if you're a Givenchy fan or a curious observer, you should know which products are worth your attention and which ones you can gloss over. Givenchy makeup is supposed to have something they refer to as "Prisme," which is meant to describe the prismatic, light-reflecting effect they've added to all of their products. You'll hear a lot from the Givenchy salespeople about the delicate interplay of color and light, but when you cut through the marketing mumbo jumbo, all that these products contain is shine, and it's the same shiny ingredients every other company in the world of makeup is using.
It's important to keep in mind that too much shine will only make the wrinkles you have look worse. While you'll hear that shine reflects light from wrinkles, you can easily dispel that notion by testing a shiny product over your wrinkles, and seeing how the shine makes them stand out, not soften.
Givenchy also carries on about the pigment technology they use, but it isn't unique to their brand. There are many different pigment technologies cosmetic formulators can use, and to one degree or another, all of them are responsible for the improvements we've seen in makeup over the past decade. Lines from L'Oreal to Giorgio Armani, Clinique, and Revlon all use modern pigment technology to create great makeup. In the end, choosing Givenchy is an option, but if you go that route, it's more important than ever (especially for your budget) to know the facts about what you're getting.
Note: The collection of Givenchy makeup reviewed on this site is representative of what's typically seen in U.S. Sephora stores that stock Givenchy.

Government's Flood Insurance Program Works

Spacious and comfortable ...
May 25, 2012
The townhome was very spacious and comfortable. Everything we needed was there. After a very hectic day at theme parks and shopping, it was a pleasure to return to the peace and quiet of the property. It was a very nice experience and my family and I will certainly look into staying there again. Check in and check out was no problem and the staff on call were very helpful. Loved it!

The condo was perfect for our family's stay. One king bed, a queen and two twins. All beds were comfortable. The condo was very clean. SO close to Disney. The condo complex had two pools with hot tubs and also a Tiki Bar and clubhouse with game room. Great value. I'd definitely stay again.

Overall a good stay.
December 26, 2009
The Unit nice curb appeal plenty of room nice kitchen, dishwasher, microwave etc The price was very good. The Location very good easy to get to Disney Negatives: There wasn't much soap etc like you would find in even economy hotels. There were coffee grounds left in the coffee pot from a previous stay. There was an issue with the refrigeratior...if the freezer wasn't turned up high enough, water would puddled in and under the crisper drawers. When it was turned up high to keep water from PUDDLING, the food would freeae. We spent a long time cleaning water up upon check out. Water was also leaking under the kitchen sink. We guess it was coming from the dishwasher connection. We had to clean up water there as well. The clubhouse wasn't close we had to drive to get to it. The ammneities in the clubhouse were ok but not what you would think from seeing it on the website. We would stay again if the water issues were fixed. This time we would know more about what to bring.
Just Wanted to let you Know We Had A Wonderful Time in your Florida Townhome.When We Arrived The Townhome was Clean And Ready For Us. The Property was Wonderful!!!

Gig review: Lulu - Under the Bridge, London
Monday 07 October 2013
Lulu has parlayed the effervescent energy and joyously explosive singing behind "Shout" into a showbiz career of ironclad durability. She has rarely let herself disappear since that 1964 hit, and notched resourcefully diverse achievements: impressive acting as a Sidney Poitier-bothering schoolgirl in To Sir, With Love, and visually shocked hosting of the TV show in which Jimi Hendrix announced his mighty talent in the 1960s; singing a Bond theme in the 1970s; raunchily collaborating with Take That on "Relight My Fire" in the 1990s; and this decade, "mentoring" on American Idol. If all I can remember from the 1980s is a guest appearance on Super Gran, I'm sure the fault is mine.

Simon Price on pop: Emeli Sandé, you've delighted us long enough – now give us something new
Saturday 13 April 2013
I opened an envelope the other day and Emeli Sandé turned up. OK, an old joke, but they keep coming. Only last week, some wag tweeted "Which song is Emili Sandé singing at Thatcher's funeral?" For most of last year, it seemed that Sandé – who at the start of it was just another name on those Brightest Hopes/Sound of lists – was inescapable. You couldn't switch on, say, the Olympics opening ceremony, the Olympics closing ceremony, The X Factor, The Voice or even BBC Sports Relief without seeing her bleached quiff, or hearing her signature tune "Next to Me".

A minority of the 20 planners disciplined by the CFP Board of Standards filed for bankruptcy in recent months, proving the wisdom of the board's decision to change the way it treats such cases.
This Website Is For Financial Professionals Only
Most of the censures related to flawed professional practices: unsuitable recommendations, misleading marketing materials.
Bankruptcy was only a factor in nine of the cases, which carried penalties ranging from letters of admonition to permanent loss of the right to bear the CFP mark.
The worst cases were truly stunning in their failure to live up to fiduciary standards. One planner went around in-house compliance rules and had his FINRA license suspended for repeat infractions.
The very existence of these infractions proves two things. First, the expansion of the financial planning approach has brought the service mark to a broader pool of advisors -- with different business models.
And as the approach broadens, the aspirations of everyone in the profession may not be so lofty as they once were.

Marketers reportedly are trimming their print and broadcast ad spending, and boosting their online budgets, in reaction to a global hike in food and energy costs. Overall, Western European ad spending is projected to be down slightly from earlier forecasts, to 3.7%, just above the inflation rate, and slightly more than the 3.5% increase projected for North America, according to Publicis Groupe's ZenithOptimedia.

A frantic mama duck stood by helplessly above a storm drain, where her nine ducklings had fallen in Monday afternoon.
Enter Hope Darrow, an animal services officer with the Irvine Police Department.
She took off the manhole cover and found the ducklings still in the catch basin at the beginning of the drain. Scooping them out, she reunited them with mom.
But Tuesday morning, Darrow got another call from passersby who heard 'meeping' from inside the storm drain, where one of the ducklings had been left behind. Mom was nowhere in sight.
Darrow and an Irvine Ranch Water District employee pulled off the manhole, but this time the lost duckling had traveled pretty far into the center line that runs through the street. So Darrow used a quack ringtone and the flashlight on her iPhone to draw him to her.
"There's an app for that," she said, laughing.
He didn't seem injured, but he kept calling for his mom, Darrow said. But mom and the others had already left – survival of the fittest kicks in sometimes, Darrow said – so the little one is headed to the Wetlands and Wildlife Care Center, which has already received 124 other ducklings this season.
It's a common occurrence during spring, and Darrow gets calls once or twice a week when broods of babies as large as 14 can disappear down a drain.
Ducklings graze on bugs and grass in the runoff that pools along the curb from sprinklers and hoses. Since they're wobbly on their feet, they lean against the curb, but when the curb opens up into the storm drain, they fall right in.
But Darrow warns residents not to try to help on their own if they see lost or troubled wildfowl but rather call animal services at 949-724-7200. And unless someone's injured or a duckling is without its mom, officers can't intervene.
And whatever you do, don't put ducklings in your bathtub. Ducklings can't swim without their mom, because the oils she secretes from her feathers keep them afloat.

I liked that we got paid, we learned how to fine tune our professional skills, gained confidence, got to meet and make long time connections.
Sometimes not enough help
Just be you and never be afraid to ask for help.
I found this review helpful (0 others have found this review helpful)
Report abuse
the culture of Mattress Firm and selling beds
the hours, long 10 hour days
Must be able to talk and communicate with people
Freedom and ability to find help peer-to-peer.
Feedback received later after already done.
Just make sure you fit the culture. Culture is a big factor.
Why should we hire you over anyone else?
The training and events for interns were so much fun and so helpful in learning how to be a good sales person. The flexibility they had with allowing me to work where I wanted and the fun atmosphere where things don't get take too seriously was a huge plus.
I was not crazy about the long hours and the ups and downs of sales, where one day you can make a lot and the next day you make nothing.
This is an amazing company to work for, but you have to be prepared to handle the world of commissioned sales. You have to be able to be excited even on days when no one is walking in the door, and always maintain a good attitude.
A better structure for hours would be good. Some of the stores I interacted with had half days, where one employee would open and another close on a weekday to lighten the amount of hours that each employee has to be there. That would be a good practice company wide as my store did not use that policy and each person would work over 50 hours per week.
Engaging, Fun, Encouraging Trainers, Company constantly gives back, Dedicated employees, Great compensation
Hours were long, Sometimes the stores are extremely slow, Working with one other person or less can get lonely
Keep and open mind, ask questions, learn as much as you can, get involved and after that, get MORE involved! Give back, spend a lot of time planning your community service event, go for the "Nos", always keep closing, never be discouraged, keep failing and learn from your mistakes.
Hire people that are willing to make a difference to keep employee retention high.
Training in my field while getting paid.Networking with those in the corporate office.All the opportunity the company has to offer.
Not enough females in the store, constant stares.Felt out of place because many of the full time employees knew nothing about the internship program.
We are not only selling mattresses, we are learning how to problem solve, evaluate situations, communicate, and close deals.
I would have really liked to see more women on the sales floor, those that I worked with did an amazing job.
Company culture.
I struggled to get motivated about mattresses.
This is a great place to get started din the world of sales. They have an easy to learn system, moderately easy to learn products, good training program, and a fair pay structure.
Cannot remember
Keep up the great company culture! I was a huge fan of all the hanging out that I was able to do, and training that I got with other people.
Company culture and opportunity for growth
The hours are long and there can be a lot of downtime with little to do
Compensation is performance based, you control your pay. Culture is awesome, you'll love your coworkers and the way you're treated by the company.
What are you passionate about? What skills would allow you to excel in this position?
Hours could be split a little better. Long days are tiring and time spent with family is decreased.
The people I got to work with were a large component in what made this internship over the summer so great. That and the amount of people I got to interact with, giving me much needed experience in not just retail, but in the inter-workings of a business.
The training program was not as regimented as I felt it could be. There are a few reasons as to why this is understandable as it was the first time a internship program was held in Greensboro, and there was a change in manage during the 12 weeks I was there.
The best part about working at Mattress Firm, is the relation the employees have with each other. It really does feel like a team, if not a family that are all working together towards the same goal. Hoping to see each other succeed, but helping them if needed.
There isn't anything that stood out to me other then the training issues we experienced. Even then it was not a massive issue, it could just be more regimented on a day-to-day basis.
Getting to know your co workers and sales
Dealing with the public
Expect to deal with people who want to haggle

What does it take to tell a story that matters? What makes a story compelling? This series will share some great storytelling and consider what makes them great.
Today's selections inspire laughter and tears.
Comedian Mike DeStefano shares a touching story of his last experience with his wife before her death.
And that guy was right. She just wanted to know that I still needed her, like I loved her, you know what I mean? [Dying] people, they feel "I'm alive." They pass away at one moment. Until that moment, they are alive, and they want to be loved, and they want to give and share, you know.
Her last request is for a ride on his motorcycle, the encumbrances of her paper gown and IV pole be damned.
So the next thing you know we're on I-95, because women, it's never enough for them. We're on I-95, and she unhooks the pole, and she's holding the morphine bag over her head with her gown that's flying up in the air so you could see her entire naked, bony body with the morphine bag whipping in the wind, and we're passing by these guys in their Lamborghinis, and I'm looking at them like, What the hell kind of life are you living? Look at me, I'm on top of the world here.
DeStefano faces the frailty of his lover and best friend facing death ... and comes to the conclusion that what matters is loving her in the present moment.
David Ogilvy, of the famous Ogilvy & Mather advertising agency, shared the story of his copy writing process in a letter he wrote in 1955.
On March 22nd you wrote to me asking for some notes on my work habits as a copywriter. They are appalling, as you are about to see...
In addition to being hilarious (who knew the power of Handel?), most writers, if they are honest, will be able to see themselves in his comments:
I am terrified of producing a lousy advertisement. This causes me to throw away the first 20 attempts. If the client changes the copy, I get angry—because I took a lot of trouble writing it, and what I wrote I wrote on purpose.
I am terrified of producing a lousy advertisement. This causes me to throw away the first 20 attempts.
If the client changes the copy, I get angry—because I took a lot of trouble writing it, and what I wrote I wrote on purpose.
Ogilvy is incredibly successful at what he does ... and yet he presents himself as an everyman, just as stymied and troubled by the writing process as anyone else who hopes to turn a phrase.
What strikes you about these stories? What evokes an emotional response?

What if Chelski wins the UCL this year? They will automatically be in next year's competition. How is this handled?
Assuming you mean Chelsea, winnig the UCL is not a "promotion" from the EPL as this question contemplated.

With 4th place Tottenham with 59 points and 5 matches left, best they can do is reach 74 points and 3rd place behind Man U (79 as I type) and Man City (77). Absent a bankruptcy filing (or some heinous act) by one of the latter that would result in points being deducted, Man U and Man City have clinched automatic slots for the Champions League so can probably cash out at 0.
Only teams still in contention for the third slot are Arsenal, Tottenham, Newcastle United, and Chelsea. No one else can catch current #3, Arsenal so can cash out at 0.
Yes. 100 for Man U and Man City. Must have been thinking on next paragraph when I types 0 on that one. Thanks.

Questions and Answers
ASK A QUESTION Got questions about this product? Ask them here. Got questions about anything else? Please see our FAQ.
"Hi, what kind of details do the wrists have? They appear in the photo to be fairly "open" so I am wondering if there is an inner fabric to keep wind from going up the sleeve.
Also, what is the interior like. Is it the same "neo" material or fleece? Any pockets on the inside.
Would like to have seen more detailed photos.
Thanks for additional info.

Question by Shelley on 6/20/2013 - 8:58 am
"The wrists do have an open cuff. There is no inner fabric to seal out air. The inside of the jacket has a soft fleece on the back portion and a polyester fabric on the chest and arm areas. There are two pockets in the inside. On the left side there is a zippered pocket that could store a wallet and on the right there is a Velcro pocket that could store a cell phone. Overall, this is a very nice jacket that you can tell is high quality. It is waterproof, windproof, and breathable so it will definitely keep you protected from the elements. "
