A look at recent releases on Netflix and Blu-ray, including "Life Itself," "Annie," "Into the Woods," "The Lady From Shanghai," and more.
"War of the Worlds" is a big, clunky movie containing some sensational sights but lacking the zest and joyous energy we expect from Steven Spielberg. It proceeds with the lead-footed deliberation of its 1950s predecessors to give us an alien invasion that is malevolent, destructive and, from the alien point of view, pointless. They've "been planning this for a million years" and have gone to a lot of trouble to invade Earth for no apparent reason and with a seriously flawed strategy. What happened to the sense of wonder Spielberg celebrated in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," and the dazzling imagination of "Minority Report"?
The movie adopts the prudent formula of viewing a catastrophe through the eyes of a few foreground characters. When you compare it with a movie like "The Day After Tomorrow," which depicted the global consequences of cosmic events, it lacks dimension: Martians have journeyed millions of miles to attack a crane operator and his neighbors (and if they're not Martians, they journeyed a lot farther). The hero, Ray Ferrier (Tom Cruise), does the sort of running and hiding and desperate defending of his children that goes with the territory, and at one point even dives into what looks like certain death to rescue his daughter.
There's a survivalist named Ogilvy (Tim Robbins) who has quick insights into surviving: "The ones that didn't flatline are the ones who kept their eyes open." And there are the usual crowds of terrified citizens looking up at ominous threats looming above them. But despite the movie's $135 million budget, it seems curiously rudimentary in its action.
The problem may be with the alien invasion itself. It is not very interesting. We learn that countless years ago, invaders presumably but not necessarily from Mars buried huge machines all over the Earth. Now they activate them with lightning bolts, each one containing an alien (in what form, it is hard to say). With the aliens at the controls, these machines crash up out of the Earth, stand on three towering but spindly legs and begin to zap the planet with death rays. Later, their tentacles suck our blood and fill steel baskets with our writhing bodies.
To what purpose? Why zap what you later want to harvest? Why harvest humans? And, for that matter, why balance these towering machines on ill-designed supports? If evolution has taught us anything, it is that limbs of living things, from men to dinosaurs to spiders to centipedes, tend to come in numbers divisible by two. Three legs are inherently not stable, as the movie demonstrates when one leg of a giant tripod is damaged, and it falls helplessly to the ground.
The tripods are indeed faithful to the original illustrations for H.G. Wells' novel The War of the Worlds, and to the machines described in the historic 1938 Orson Welles radio broadcast. But the book and radio program depended on our imaginations to make them believable, and the movie came at a time of lower expectations in special effects. You look at Spielberg's machines and you don't get much worked up, because you're seeing not alien menace but clumsy retro design. Perhaps it would have been a good idea to set the movie in 1898, at the time of Wells' novel, when the tripods represented a state-of-the-art alien invasion.
There are some wonderful f/x moments, but they mostly don't involve the pods. A scene where Ray wanders through the remains of an airplane crash is somber and impressive, and there is an unforgettable image of a train, every coach on fire, roaring through a station. Such scenes seem to come from a kind of reality different from that of the tripods.
Does it make the aliens scarier that their motives are never spelled out? I don't expect them to issue a press release announcing their plans for world domination, but I wish their presence reflected some kind of intelligent purpose. The alien ship in "Close Encounters" visited for no other reason, apparently, than to demonstrate that life existed elsewhere, could visit us, and was intriguingly unlike us while still sharing such universal qualities as the perception of tone. Those aliens wanted to say hello. The alien machines in "War of the Worlds" seem designed for heavy lifting in an industry that needs to modernize its equipment and techniques. (The actual living alien being we finally glimpse is an anticlimax, a batlike, bug-eyed monster, confirming the wisdom of Kubrick and Clarke in deliberately showing no aliens in "2001").
The human characters are disappointingly one-dimensional. Cruise's character is given a smidgen of humanity (he's an immature, divorced hotshot who has custody of the kids for the weekend) and then he wanders out with his neighbors to witness strange portents in the sky, and the movie becomes a story about grabbing and running and ducking and hiding and trying to fight back.
There are scenes in which poor Dakota Fanning, as his daughter, has to be lost or menaced, and then scenes in which she is found or saved, all with much desperate shouting. A scene where an alien tentacle explores a ruined basement where they're hiding is a mirror of a better scene in "Jurassic Park" where characters hide from a curious raptor.
The thing is, we never believe the tripods and their invasion are practical. How did these vast metal machines lie undetected for so long beneath the streets of a city honeycombed with subway tunnels, sewers, water and power lines, and foundations? And why didn't a civilization with the physical science to build and deploy the tripods a million years ago not do a little more research about conditions on the planet before sending its invasion force? It's a war of the worlds, all right -- but at a molecular, not a planetary level.
All of this is just a way of leading up to the gut reaction I had all through the film: I do not like the tripods. I do not like the way they look, the way they are employed, the way they attack, the way they are vulnerable or the reasons they are here. A planet that harbors intelligent and subtle ideas for science fiction movies is invaded in this film by an ungainly Erector set.

Top 10
Alex Preston makes top 10; will tour with 'American Idol'
Alex Preston Philbrick performs recently at Souhegan High School in Amherst before returning to Hollywood as an "American Idol" contestant. (KIMBERLY HOUGHTON/Union Leader Correspondent)
What started out as a pipe dream has become a reality for Preston, 20, a student at the University of New Hampshire. Preston, whose real name is Alex Preston Philbrick, continues to escape elimination from the musical reality show, and this week stunned the judges with his performance on "American Idol."
The nation voted to keep Preston in the competition as the live results show aired Thursday night. Preston has yet to be placed in the bottom three vote-getters.
"We will see you on tour! From the bottom of my heart, thank you," Preston tweeted after the show.
On Wednesday, Preston took the stage to perform his version of "Falling Slowly" from the 2007 Irish musical film "Once."
After providing some constructive criticism to Preston the week before, all three celebrity judges praised the Mont Vernon native following this week's performance -- even showing a glimpse of the Mont Vernon town sign on television.
"Simply stated and elegantly done," Harry Connick Jr. said of Preston's song. "I'm really proud of you man."
Connick said "Idol" is the ideal platform for a guy like Preston to take the stage with his guitar -- without any fireworks -- and make an impression.
"What I love about your performance is that it always holds my attention because it is raw and fragile," said Keith Urban. "It is very real … you are always in the moment."
Even when Preston shows he is tentative, Urban said it is real, adding he loves Preston's artistry.
Jennifer Lopez echoed those comments.
"It was a perfect song for you. You sang it perfectly. It was beautiful," she told him.
Preston admits that he never envisioned the type of success that he is currently experiencing, or that he would be able to hang out in Los Angeles with Adam Lambert and Chris Daughtry, former American Idol contestants returning to the show as mentors this season.
During a recent trip back to Souhegan High School in Amherst last month, Preston said he participated in the jazz band and pop band in high school, and performed locally with the band Undertow.
"We weren't good," Preston said at the time, joking at his own youthfulness. Still, Preston said he wanted be a musician and he went for it, auditioning online for "American Idol."
The songwriter and performer plays about a dozen instruments, but apparently feels most comfortable behind the guitar. He has already impressed "American Idol" judges with his own work, as he has performed at least two of his original songs on the show.

Since you called out some fairly regular posters, I'll call you out.
Your last post, as is almost all of your posts, is very much leading the reader to a comfort zone for yourself (and this is exactly what you accuse D2, Nome and others of) You've admitted that you no longer have a position here. It's pretty clear that readers are not on your wavelength, why not just go away?
You never answer the hard questions like the one above. WHy not just go away? You can't possibly imagine you're saving this very tiny part of the world from the evils of bad management and corrupt boards. We all know they exist and that it's a possibility that some corruption might exist within the Oncy infrastructure. If you truly felt your moral compass necessitated that you save us from all the "bad people" why are you just on this board. If that's what you were about you'd be spreading yourself over countless boards where the dimwit owners are being ravaged by unscrupulous owners and management. Why are you here and no where else hgff? Riddle me that. In my opinion you are a fraud of the nth degree, not necessarily completely wrong in all that you say, but truly fraudulent in how you say it. It's time for you to go and stay gone.
Asking me the question over and over again is part of the game
This is the real world. You cant mke people go away because you disagree with them.
Doing the stupid things youve done would make anyone stand their ground.
There is about 1000 ridiculous stupid nonsensical things you mohrons have attributed to me and your gibberish about "corrupt management" is 1001.
Somtherebyou have it, you caught me calling you a mohron after you howling clowns have spent the last week doing nothing but name calling.
Grow up loser.
So nowyou have whatbyou need. I just verbally abused you. Imagine anyone doing such a thing on this board. Unheard of.
I suggest you talk a look at the other board this morning. Geneman just posted a long analysis of the risk/reward situation were he strongly warns people to be careful especially near binary events. Frankly he did your job better than you. Yet no one is criticizing him, sniping at him or calling him names. In fact they are thanking him. Why? Partly because that board is monitored and such behavior is not tolerated as Carri knows. But there is another reason. Geneman has built up a ton-load of respect with the posters there because he is an objective thinker without a negative agenda. I know, people can have a positive agenda and be tolerated, even welcomed and that isn't fair. But as you say "it's the real world" at least of stock boards.
You are capable of clear, deep thinking (I say that knowing that RMD will ridicule me for it) but you waste the opportunity to share those thoughts here because you bring a constant negative bias to your posts.
Get yourself a new nick if you want to try again with a different approach.
Again you don't answer the question. Why aren't you saving the rest of the world? Why do you only want to save ONCY stock owners hgff?
You call me a loser. Very mature of you hgff. Why aren't you saving the people on the apple board or on the blackberry board or...,other boards, hgff?
You have a problem with this stock or with someone on this board and are too immature to admit it hgff?. Fess up little man, confession is good for the soul.
And please keep up with those English lessons you're taking. You're not nearly as good as you think you are.

Facing widespread criticism over his failure to solve the economic crisis, PA President Mahmoud Abbas Sunday asked Israel to review the 1994 Paris Protocol.Hussein Sheikh, the head of civilian affairs in the Palestinian Authority, announced that Abbas has asked him to file an official request with Israel to review the Paris Protocol to determine whether it can be changed.The Paris Protocol is the framework establishing interim- period economic relations between Israel and the PA.According to the agreement, Palestinian trade with other countries is handled through Israeli sea and air ports or border crossings with Jordan and Egypt.Over the past week, Abbas has come under pressure from many Palestinians to cancel the Paris Protocol under the pretext that it imposes severe restrictions on the development of the Palestinian economy.Sheikh said that he filed an urgent request with the Israeli authorities to review the economic agreement. He said that if Israel accepts the request, the PA would form a special committee to study the required changes.Hassan Khreisheh, an independent legislator, said that changing the Paris Protocol has become a popular demand that the PA leadership can no longer ignore.The PA's request came as Palestinians continued to stage protests in various parts of the West Bank against the high cost of living.Demonstrations took place in Nablus and Ramallah Sunday, where Palestinians chanted slogans against Prime Minister Salam Fayyad and Abbas and called for their resignation.The protesters blocked main roads in the two cities and vowed to continue demonstrating until the two PA leaders resigned.Until now, protesters had only demanded the resignation of Fayyad.Palestinians are also planning to hold a one-day strike of public transportation in the West Bank Monday to protest against an increase in the price of fuel and basic goods."This is just the beginning," said cab driver Ahmed Samara from Ramallah. "The Palestinian Authority has failed and must go."Marwan Hamdan, who described himself as a Fatah activist, complained that Abbas and the PA leadership "were living on another planet."He added: "They have big houses and send their children to study in the US and Europe while the ordinary people don't have money to feed their children. We are fed up with this situation."Palestinian journalists who attended Abbas's press conference in Ramallah on Saturday said that the PA president's remarks about the economic crisis reflected a state of confusion and tension.One journalist pointed out that Abbas's remarks came as a disappointment to many Palestinians."We got the feeling that President Abbas was out of touch with reality and unaware how severe the crisis is," the journalist told The Jerusalem Post.Another journalist said she was surprised to see how Abbas was dealing with the crisis – as if it were in another country."He called a press conference to announce that he would consult with friends about asking the UN to accept Palestine as a non-member at the end of the month. Is this really what Palestinians wanted to hear? Does anyone really care about the new statehood bid? How does this help solve the economic crisis?" Hanna Amireh, a senior PLO official in the West Bank, warned that the PA could lose control if the protests continued.Noting that the crisis was severe, he urged donor countries to quickly help the PA to prevent further deterioration.

3D Printing technology came of age at this year's International CES. From printed drum shells to collectables to jewelry, 3D printers were doing it all.
3D Systems announced the Cube 3, which they say will be the world's first sub-$1,000 3D printer. It features a resolution of 75 microns, which is almost four times the resolution of current generation sub-$2,000 printers. Objects printed with a resolution of 75 microns are almost smooth to the touch – which is practically unheard of in consumer-priced printers.
One thing that caught my eye was a 3D printed dollhouse, created by Jesyca Durchin and her colleagues at Nena Media. The cat in the picture belongs to one of her colleagues. It was scanned with a $399 hand scanner that 3D Systems calls the Sense. It allows you to quickly scan any three-dimensional object up to 10 square feet and quickly create a printable file. According to Jesyca, the cat didn't even wake up until after they were done scanning it.
If you can't afford a 3D printer, Staples has a deal with 3D Systems called My Easy 3D. You send your 3D file to Staples and they 3D print it for you.
There are also awesome communities at 3D System's cubify.com and at Makerbot's Thingiverse.
Now, you can print in all kinds of materials: ABS plastic, ABS resin, wood (a binding agent and sawdust, but it sands and finished like wood), carbon fiber, stainless steel and even specialized organic materials. But objects that you print do not need to be the final product.
Here's a picture of an ABS resin model (printed with 50 micron resolution on a Kevvox 3D printer) that was packed in a plaster mold. The molten metal was poured into the mold, the heat melted the resin, and a perfect cast was made of the model. The results are significantly more intricate than one would expect from traditional castings.
Of course, everything does not have to be mechanized, machined or computer controlled to be awesome. This is the 3Doodler.
It's a handheld device (about the size of a soldering iron) that is a cross between a hot glue gun and a magic marker. The trick? It writes in ABS plastic, so you can doodle in 3D. The 3Doodler, which you can find at the3Doodler.com, is available for $99 and comes with two packs of plastic. Additional multi-colored packs of ABS plastic are $10 each. This was one of the most creative toys I saw at this year's CES.
It also demonstrated a profound shift in the landscape of the show: the 3Doodler started on Kickstarter. It's a very small company with a very big idea. There were dozens of similarly young companies displaying their wares this year. It was exciting and eye-opening to see how well positioned some of these startups were – especially when compared to their large corporate counterparts.
There were many lessons to be learned in the 3D printing area. First, within a few business cycles, the nature of the collectable business and the action figure business are going to change as profoundly as the music and movie businesses have changed. The economical virtualization of physical goods is here, and it is here to stay. Expect copyright problems, mash-ups, outright theft of IP, wonderful new mutations, new businesses, and a world of possibilities. In fact, expect anything – except business as usual.
Additionally, we will see a new age of rapid prototyping, replacement parts, home repair and everything else that open-source physical goods might inspire.
But maybe the most important lesson I learned in the 3D zone at CES was simply a reinforcement of a very old lesson – the world belongs to those who create things of value, because the realization of ideas is the most valuable thing of all.

Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend. New versions of favorites, such as the Samsung Gear (three new products were released: the Gear 2, the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear Fit), shared the limelight with new wearables like Pebble Time Steel (the new premium version of the company's previously released smartwatch) and the LG Watch Urbane. The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...

I love this mascara. I love how long and dark it makes my lashes and multiple coats of this stuff makes me look like I'm wearing false lashes which I love. My eyes look so much more striking when I build it up with this. The formula is perfectly in between wet and dry and it is truly waterproof, something that I have yet to find to match this. A quality buy by far!

Wow..color me impressed. I have tried other WNW mascaras without success. But this one I am very happy with! I like the simple rubber brush. The formula is not too wet and not too dry. I find it does give me some length. This is not a volumizing mascara. Now note that I do not go in for super spidery lashes- just something that will make my lashes more prominent but natural looking. I also need my mascara to be waterproof and not give me panda eyes. So far, after using this for over 2 weeks, it has exceeded my expectations!
PROS: Cheap, easy to use, formula works well, does not give me panda eyes!
CONS: None so far!
Definitely plan to repurchase!

No one can beat the price of this mascara, but that is not why I like it. It doesn't make your lashes thick but it does make them darker and longer. It is so easy to do your lower lashes and I can honestly say it is as good for that as IT cosmetics Tightliner which is so much more expensive I have used both and Wet&Wild is just as good.I like that it is waterproof. However I searched for a long time for a mascara that didn't contain parabens and didn't test on animals this was the only one that I found that offered a reasonable price, well actually a unbelievable low price. I was not happy to find out that some of their other mascaras do contain parabens so it is best to carefully read the ingredients. I will be using it as long as they make it and also looking at their other products for paraben free products.

This is my HG Mascara! After trying Maybelline (which smudged like crazy and did nothing for my lashes) and Covergirl (same story), I was willing to try anything. I heard good reviews about this mascara and for $3 I could afford to try it. I was pretty desperate to find a mascara that had solid staying power since that was another issue I had with Maybelline's mascaras. I ride nine miles a day on my bike to and from work. Staying power is a MUST especially since I have lovely genetic undereye dark circles. If it smudges, I look like a zombie. If it smudges, it gets thrown away. I was a bit skeptical since Wet n Wild's quality isn't the best but I love their eyeshadows so I figured: "Why not?". This mascara is amazing! IT STAYS AND DOESN'T SMUDGE!!! I rode to work 4.5 miles in the cold which makes my eyes tear up. I got to work expecting raccoon eyes and the mascara stayed put! It wasn't all over my face! Granted, it does have its flaws. The formula is pretty wet so be careful when applying. It can clump but use a eyelash brush to separate the clumps out. It does lengthen my lashes out and they look really pretty. For $3, I cannot beat this deal!!!

Im in highschool and its perfect for an everyday school thing. Gives my lashes a little boost and barely clumps which is great. I love tht the brush bristles are tiny and rubber because I feel like brushes like that tend to give better length and seperate too at the same time. If you have shorter lashes im not sure if this will work for u in terms of length because I already have long ones but like I said I just need a boost so I would suggest looking into Rimmel Mascara or Maybelline one for extra length !

I was excited to try Wet'n'Wild waterproof mascara after reading some of the reviews. It's super cheap so I didn't hesitate to run out and buy some.
I was very disappointed at the results. My lashes stayed stickey all day. They clumped together and they were droopy. The mascara smudged under my eyes after a few hours. This is one of the worst mascaras that I've tried in a long time.

Bought this for the skinny wand as bushy brushes cause me to have mascara all over my face. LOVE IT!! Can easily get right up to root of lashes and I can control exactly where mascara goes. Formula works for me and for $2.99 @ Walgreens it't worth a try.

Of the brands and formulas I've tried so far, this is my favorite drugstore mascara!
I bought this not expecting much at all. I was looking to find a thrifty alternative to e.l.f, because the smudging got to be more than I could handle. I've tried all the other major Walgreens brands (CG, Maybelline, L'Oreal, Rimmel, etc.) but never Wet N' Wild. I've had really good luck with WNW lately, so I decided to give it a shot.
I was more than surprised the first time I used this. Usually, more inexpensive mascara is dry, even in a fresh tube. Imagine my surprise when I pulled out the wand and it was wet! And shiny! Definitely a good sign. The wand is great too. It was the same plastic as opposed to fiber wand I love(d) so much about e.l.f mineral. But this wand is more narrow. I can get right up on the roots of all my lashes and get great coverage from root to tip.
I will agree with previous reviewers on the clumping. Right out of the gate, I had the same issue. It was easily remedied by wiping all mascara off the wand and combing out but that's a step I shouldn't have to take. A week or so after opening this tube, the formula got waaay easier to work with. Perhaps it dried out just the right amount. The pigment is dark and once I got the right consistency, I am loving this. It doesn't smudge or flake at all and one coat is just right for everyday wear.
The packaging is cute (I love the purple) and the price is great! I am sure there are other mascaras out there that do more than this one does. And they have a larger price tag to go with it. I will stick with this for my everyday, fuss-free mascara.

Silver Tips Too Soon?
I apologize if the answer is obvious, but I'm rather new at this. I have two 1.5-year old apple trees, a Granny Smith and a Golden Delicious. The Golden Delicious continues to remain dormant.
However, I first noticed about a month ago that the Granny Smith is entering the silvery tip phase (losing its hard wood-like exterior on the buds and becoming gray/fuzzy). I just checked last weekend again and it's getting bigger and more fuzzy - there's almost no wood-like exterior left.
Given that the weather is still in the 20s-30s, is this happening too soon? If so, is there something I can do to slow the process down? I'm also not sure why the Granny Smith is growing while the Golden Delicious remains dormant.
Thank you!
Ah I didn't realize who you were. Its funny that the pear observations I referred to above I had made during your visit.
For the poms you usually see baby roots in a couple weeks. I usually root in some way I can inspect the roots, either wrapped in wet paper towel or in sand.
You didn't miss it, it was just something I noticed while showing you some pear buds.
For the grapes they can bud out on top before they have produced roots on the bottoms. Usually it doesn't have a big effect on the final outcome but if the top gets too far ahead of the bottom it can be bad. When I root grapes I try to heat the bottoms more than the tops, that slows down the tops a bit.

Two members of the University of Oregon Chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) and students in the UO School of Journalism and Communication (SOJC) were recognized for outstanding achievement in public relations at this year's commencement event held Sunday, June 15.
M. Callie Gisler received the Jack Ewan Award, presented each year to the outstanding senior member of UO PRSSA. The award recognizes both achievement and potential and is named in honor of the late Jack Ewan, associate professor emeritus in the SOJC. Ewan built the school's public relations courses into an accredited major and founded the University of Oregon Chapter of PRSSA, the first in the Northwest.
Judges for the award praised Gisler, a senior from Salem, for her "contributions to PRSSA, which were significant, and is a well-rounded new professional who will go far in her chosen field."

Judges recognized Shold, a senior from Menlo Park, Calif., for "her work with real clients meeting real needs." In addition, "Mandy has truly made a difference in her PRSSA chapter as well as the Eugene community. She is the ideal candidate for the Liz Cawood Award."

Crafty use for covered buttons?
I have a stash of vintage buttons I've found at yardsales, auctions, etc. While sorting through the buttons last night, I was setting aside the covered ones, not planning on using them. But after I took a second look at them, I thought they would be really cute as pushpins for cork board, or magnets. But they need some type of embellishment, and thats where my ideas end lol. What can I use to embellish fabric covered buttons?
Oh, there are also some huge buttons that had to have come off of a faux fur coat. They are black, and about 2 1/2 inches. I was thinking these would make a great pin, or even an ornament. Any ideas?
The covered buttons could have small glass beads, fabric paint could be used to make dots or heart(2 dots side by side & draw both down to bottom for a heart,sequins,small bits of broken jewelry,tiny sea shells, lace around edge? Weldbond is good glue as drys clear & holds well. The backs of the covered buttons might be a problem as the shank would stick out unless you cut it off. Sounds fun! Show us what you come up with! Jan
If any are velvet..you could stick a rhinestone in the center of it..

The Community Fisheries Control Agency adopts its Work Programme and Budget for 2010
Yesterday, the Community Fisheries Control Agency (CFCA) adopted its work programme and budget for 2010.
The work programme caters for the assistance to Member States and the Commission in the implementation of the regulation to prevent IUU fishing throughout the Community in a uniform manner. Moreover, operational coordination of control and inspection activities will continue in the already consolidated Joint Deployment Plans (cod in the Baltic Sea, North Sea and Western Waters, bluefin tuna in the Mediterranean and Eastern Atlantic). The efforts of the CFCA to enhance the capacities of Member States to apply the rules of the Common Fisheries Policy in a uniform and effective manner will be increased in particular in the areas of training of national fisheries inspectors and pooling of data and information. After many years of work to develop effective measures on international level, within the FAO and Regional Fisheries Management Organisations and at European level by the Commission, at the first of January 2010 the Council Regulation establishing the Community system to prevent, deter and eliminate IUU fishing will enter into force. Therefore, the fight against IUU fisheries, as an overriding priority, is at the core front of the CFCA Work Programme 2010. The CFCA has been created in 2006 and has been established in Vigo (Spain) in July 2008.

4 years of no periods, now hot flushes
4 years ago, I had a huge fibroid removed (about the size of a football...doc said I looked about 5 1/2 months pregnant).
From that day I have not had a period. I did not have a hysterectomy. I am 52 years old and have all of a sudden started very severe hot flashes day and night...at least 10 times per day if not more.
Has anyone else had this experience, and if so, is it menopause or adrenal stress and what are you doing to combat it?
Help needed especially when I am in those darn meetings, and I look like I am blushing for no reason...embarrassing.
This sounds like a question for your doctor, given your medical history. However, assuming that it IS menopause (you're the right age for it), I offer you my sympathy. "Private summers" were frequent for me; I am a college professor and my students thought it was amusing to see me take my suit jacket off and put it back on again 10 times in a two-hour class.
Some women on this forum have found relief with black cohosh. (If you do a search with the search field at the bottom of this page, you'll find the posts.) It didn't help me, but time did. It was pretty awful for about 4 years, but time has helped quite a bit.
I hope you find a way to cope! Getting older isn't for sissies! Oh, and two tips: Dress in layers, it really helps, and get a fan for your bedroom. A moving river of air over the bed will help you recover from the hot flashes much more quickly.

Another horse at the barn where my wife keeps hers has just had a baby the night before last. I did tech support installing the FoalAlert system which apparently worked well, so I get partial credit. The mare's name is Cloudy, and typically they name her offspring something weather-related (one was Gusty, one was Sirocco) I think they decided to go with Partly Cloudy for this one:
A couple of years ago I was helping out at a standardbred horse farm.
This little colt was born while I was there.

What's Wrong With Exxon? Inside The Lowest-Scoring Company on HRC's Corporate Equality Index
September 9, 2013 by Guest contributor
Post submitted by Adam Bradley, HRC Communications Intern
Exxon Mobil tends to find itself at the tops of rankings: the oil giant routinely sets records for corporate profits ($45 billion in 2012), and is second only to Apple in its total share value. But for the last two years, Exxon has occupied the lowest spot in HRC's Corporate Equality Index, with a score of negative 25 out of a possible 100 points. No other company has ever received a negative score. In fact, while many other Fortune 500 companies took significant steps to make their corporate policies inclusive and LGBT-friendly, Exxon actively fought against such changes. Antonia Juhasz provided an in-depth examination of Exxon's corporate culture of inequality for The Advocate:
"One executive who served on the board of directors told Coll that Exxon maintains "'kind of a 1950s Southern religious culture. They're all engineers, mostly white males, mostly from the South…They shared a belief in the One Right Answer, that you would solve the equation and that would be the answer, and it didn't need to be debated.'""

My check in was a bit messed up really which wasn't a good start at all the girl at front desk seemed a bit ditsy and with it being NYE the vibe was a bit too casual for my liking.
Though the hotel had a fantastic vibe once i had got to the bar and my room.
I would reccomend this hotel for any young couple, great cocktails, cool and friendly staff and such good hospitality (when there not too busy)
Great value for money we stayed in the loft suite and were given a discount as we booked on same date, though didnt like the fact that internet wasn't included.
Afternoon tea was very nice sweet and tasty, spa was the bomb so idyllic
Much better than other hotels i have stayed in London.
Staff are friendly and good looking-which is a bonus :)

TV Ratings: Emmys Bring in 17.6 Million Viewers, Biggest Audience Since 2005
UPDATED: Final returns have CBS' broadcast of the TV awards up 33 percent from last year, thanks in no small part to a strong football lead-in.
Sunday's CBS telecast of the 2013 Emmys jumped 33 percent from last year's audience, with final returns giving the kudos 17.6 million viewers -- its highest viewership since 2005. That year the show did not have to go up against football.
PHOTOS: Emmys Red Carpet Arrivals
The show, which clocked in at 3 hours and 15 minutes, saw one of the strongest lead-ins in recent memory thanks to football coverage running right up until the 8:00 p.m. ET start time, bleeding into the hour by a couple minutes. Averaging a 4.9 rating among adults 18-49, the show also jumped 26 percent from last year's final demo figures (3.9 adults). CBS estimates a whopping 40 million tuned into the broadcast at one point or another.
PHOTOS: The Best and Worst of the Emmys
Sunday Night Football naturally topped the Emmys, with early figures giving the game a 6.9 rating among adults 18-49 and 18.7 million viewers. That adults rating, likely to rise in finals, is 7 percent down from last week's outing. The three installments of Football Night in America averaged a 1.8, 2.5 and 5.0 adults rating. NBC averaged a 5.5 rating with adults 18-49 and 15.2 million viewers.
More NFL overrun and animation encores brought a 1.1 rating with adults 18-49 and 2.6 million viewers.
ABC's encore block averaged a 0.6 rating with adults 18-49 and 3.3 million viewers.
Univision brought in a 1.0 rating with adults 18-49 and 2.8 million viewers, while Telemundo averaged a 0.4 in the demo and 856,000.
