Basketball court overturned for parking lot in Manchester
In doing so, a majority of aldermen sided with Alderman Ed Osborne and city officials, who said they did not want to see basketball return to the park, which is located at the corner of Lake Avenue and Hall Street.
"Harriman Park has been one of the really under-utilized (parks) in some regards because of the deterioration of park facilities, and the over-utilization by elements we really don't want to have in the park," said Leon Lafreniere, director of planning and community development for the city.
Plans for a Harriman Park upgrade follow the recent restoration of the nearby Odd Fellows Hall into an office building for social service agencies. The city wants to provide parking at the former basketball court. Also, it recently bought two houses adjacent to the park and will use the property for park expansion.
"The parking doesn't need to be there. We need that space for the neighborhood," Craig said.

In 2012 Jaeger-LeCoultre, the reference in Swiss fine watchmaking, presented its new ladies' collection, the Rendez-Vous. More than a watch, it embodies a free-spirited and spontaneous personality that is constantly reinvented and perpetually surprising. Inspired by the Rendez-Vous line, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Valextra designers created a Rendez-Vous clutch, a new way to wear one's watch as an indispensable accessory that keeps pace with trends.
The Rendez-Vous watch worn on the wrist during the day can be attached to the clutch to make it sparkle for the evening. The time of the Rendez-Vous is set. Is the eye drawn to the soft relief of the guilloché pattern, dazzled by the sparkle of the diamonds, or captivated by the slow dance of day and night? Each woman has her own answer…
Sharing the same vision of creativity, Valextra and Jaeger-LeCoultre joined their expertise earlier this year to dress the Grande Reverso Lady Ultra Thin with a double tour strap presented in three colors inspired by the next fashion trends.
Valextra is an internationally renowned Italian luxury Maison, specializing in leather products with distinctive shapes designed for the comfort of sophisticated and cosmopolitan clientele. Synonymous with a timeless style, challenging trends and exquisite craftsmanship, the artisanal techniques of supreme quality and innovative design, are always adhering to functionality and fashioned in an exceptionally vast unique color palette: the very incarnation of tasteful fashion.
The "Rendez-vous" clutch is the evolution of the emblematic evening clutch by Valextra, the 'Tammy Clutch'. Inspired by the model '419' from the historical archives, the Tammy clutch was created in 2008 taking inspiration from a custom made model of the '80s that was originally intended for a movie star yet remained on the drawing board.
The launch of the Tammy line in 2009, introduced the version clutch, its name due to a dedication that Emanuele Carminati Molina, President of Valextra, announced the day of the wedding of his dearest friend Ms. Tammy. Characterised by its' quintessential silhouette, the Tammy incorporates coupled droplets of which, thanks to the master craftsmanship, have been oppositely intertwined: the smaller concave drop sinking into the larger convex drop.
The Rendez-Vous clutch remains faithful to all the stylistic features that delineate the original Tammy, while the proportions, dimensions and certain details have been revisited to create a perfect harmony of elements. The curated details required a long and in-depth study necessary to find the precise combination between the Jaeger-LeCoultre watch and the Valextra clutch, to respect the pure and discreet lines that form the essence of Valextra's philosophy.
The Rendez-Vous clutch is created in soft leather using specially selected skins which have been bred in the French Alps. The naturalness of this material, that is highly supple and elastic, is enhanced by special dyeing techniques which allows it to gain fine quality results in terms of functionality and pleasing texture. The hardware finishes in palladium, have been crafted using goldsmith workmanship: the kiss- lock metal closure has been lightened in weight, while the sliding and retractable side clasps allow easy insertion of the watch strap. The clutch is enriched by the typical hand-painted "Costa" lacquered piping, a technique that entails the application of the lacquer to the softly rounded sheared edges which are thereafter polished to perfection.
Rendez-Vous Clutch: An accessory that keeps pace with trends

I bought this rug for a nursery. It is a pretty pattern and it looks good in the room. But in several places, the white/ivory stripes are more yellowed, as if some kind of glue had spilled on the yarn in those places. It's pretty noticeable even from a few feet away. I am not sure if I will go to the trouble of returning it, but it's just something that kind of bothers me. The website says it's organic -- when the rug arrived, it didn't say anything on the packaging about being organic. It just said "wool and viscose." But it did say Made in India. I got it because I wanted a non-toxic rug. It doesn't smell, but it's hard to know if it is organic. There is no backing on it -- it is just pure, tightly woven wool -- so at least I know there are no toxic glues used for the rug backing. It is rough/scratchy. I was hoping it would be softer -- I am not sure it would be comfortable to sit on, for a baby to crawl around on. I don't even think I would want to sit on the rug wearing shorts, because it would be kind of rough on your legs. All in all, an OK purchase, but given that I'm not even sure it's organic, I probably would have gone with a rug from a different store that is softer and not discolored.
The design and color are really nice. However, its hard to tell from the picture that the rug is very flimsy. Even with a pad, just walking on the rug kicks it up in all places. Forget about moving an ottoman or coffee table around; it will not stay flat. Also, this rug is true to its wool; the tiny little wool fibers end up everwhere....on the floor, in your nose, on your skin. Very itchy. It also picks very easy. I ran a vacuum over the rug to try to get rid of the wool fibers but it messed up the quality of the rug.
Perfect in my dining room. The rug is thin but it is in a room I don't use often.
Am very happy with this purchase, the rug arrived within 7 days (shipped to Australia over Christmas) and rolled out flat. The texture is quite coarse but this is not an issue for me, no shedding so far and I love the look of the rug.

I've filed a claim with the CPRC and am waiting for the claims adjuster to call to see if I have a qualified leak. I'm hoping for the best.

The act where by someone befriends you, they seem legit as you share a few friends with similar interest or are part of a similar community, then you notice the sniper picking up other friends of yours that have no connection to the sniper other than yourself.
I started getting asked who this person was asking to connect with a lot of my friends. I think they're friendsniping.

The "best GPU" depends on the games and the screen resolution at which you play. If you play Metro 2033 on Wine with triple 2560x1600 monitors, then not even a GeForce Titan will be enough.
A decent price/performance ratio can be had from the 650 Ti Boost right now, which can play modern games at medium to high settings up to 1080p.

(noun)A pet name for a signifant other who is both your best buddy and your romantic interest. Term was derived by combining "buddy" and "baby" = "bubby". Name is reserved for people who were truly best friends prior to dating.It is imperative that the person who becomes your "bubby" was purely a platonic friend prior to dating.
You can call your significant other your bubby if you were best friends with him/her in a purely platonic way. For example, dating a friend after 10 years of being friends with him/her - seeing each other date others, being there for one another as a source of support, able to be truly yourself without any impression management.
What does NOT constitute a "bubby"- Someone who becomes your best friend after you start dating. That is not a bubby.

This is one of� those times of years where a bunch of new beers are available and I'm going to take a look at a few of them.
First up is the Boulevard Brewing Company's 80-Acre Wheat, a 5.5 percent ABV wheat beer.
This beer is new to Massachusetts, but was previously released in other markets.
The 80-Acre Wheat is not your typical wheat beer. This is hoppy, similar to an IPA, or a hoppy pale ale. The smell of citrusy hops is fantastic.
The 80 Acre-Wheat has the body of a wheat beer, but the hops add a nice touch that you don't get from your normal wheat beer. I think this will become one of my summer go to beers next year as an alternative to the boatload of flavorless American pale wheat ales that dot the shelves during the warmer months.
Next up is the Magic Hat Wooly, a 4.5 percent ESB brewed with spruce.
You can only pick up a little of the spruce in the aroma. Tastewise, you may not be tasting a Christmas tree, but I get some add flavor that kind of reminds me of ashes. I had trouble getting past that flavor.
The Wooly is part of Magic Hat's winter mixed pack, which is still worth picking it up. The mixed pack features Magic Hat's best beer, the Heart of Darkness, a wonderful stout.
I have not hid the fact that I'm a huge fan of the Mystic Brewery. One of their newest beers is the Three Cranes, a 7 percent ABV saison brewed with cranberries.
I actually enjoyed this with my Thanksgiving dinner, and just like the rest of Mystic's beers, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The cranberry flavor does not overwhelm the rest of the beer. Rather it is a compliment to the rest of the flavors. The beer is extremely well-done, exactly what I expect from Mystic.
One of Samuel Adams' latest beers is the Merry Mischief, a 9.5 percent ABV gingerbread stout.
The Merry Mischief smells phenomenal, like freshly baked gingerbread cookies. The one negative is the body. It's not as full-bodied as you'd expect such a big beer to be, but the flavor is definitely there.
The Merry Mischief had the potential to be too sweet, but Samuel Adams did a good job of keeping it from crossing into the cloying category.� It is definitely a dessert type of beer, but all of the flavors blend nicely. It tastes like a gingerbread cookie.
This next beer may be hard to find. I keep hearing of more and more stores selling out. The Stone Brewing Company Enjoy By IPA (Massachusetts' version is Enjoy by 12.21.12) is a beer meant to be imbibed fresh. If there are any more left on the shelf after Dec. 21, it'll be pulled.
No matter if you buy into the hype of the beer having to be drunk that quickly or not, the Enjoy By IPA is a fabulous double IPA.
It comes in at 9.4 percent ABV, and smells of pine and some pineapple. Those aromas become flavor when you take a first sip, and there is a little spiciness to the beer.
Although this is a beer for hopheads, there is more than enough of a malt backbone to keep this beer balanced. If you're into hoppy beers, this is one to seek out. Look for it, and if it's gone, just hope it comes back in the future.
Finally, the Wormtown Brewery's newest double IPA, Buddha Juice is the brewery's best double IPA to date.

VIERA, Fla. — Negotiations between the Nationals and Ryan Zimmerman have progressed, and though a deal has not been completed yet, the two sides are moving closer to a long-term extension that would keep the third baseman in Washington for years to come, according to sources familiar with the discussions.
Brodie Van Wagenen, Zimmerman's agent, and Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo met this afternoon in Viera, though they left the meeting without a deal in place. Zimmerman has set a Saturday deadline to work something out; after that, he says he won't negotiate until after the season.
"As far as I know, there are no new negotiations going on, but Brodie's been down here," Zimmerman told Comcast SportsNet's Kelli Johnson this evening. "They've been talking a little bit. We still have a couple days, but like you said, I'd love to play here the rest of my careerRead more »

They'll get it done, no doubt. … but what do you do with Rendon if there's a no trade clause?
- gonatsgo - Feb 24, 2012 at 12:32 AM
Trade Rendon — there are quite a few teams fielding people at third this year that aren't even qualified to play the position.It doesn't seem like a very deep position. In any case – this season we don't have to do anything about it. Rendon hasn't even started playing yet.

No trade clause?Reporter: Sounds good to me. So where's a good place to eat around here? I'm sick of Panera.
- NatsJack in Florida - Feb 24, 2012 at 1:06 AM
I still say the insurance is the problem. Anyone know that the club asks for the player to partake of this expense?And remember, the discussion is about how to cover injuries. And ws aren't talking about a history of injury free seasons.

Trading Rendon is the absolute dumbest thing I've heard in quite some time.Sign Zim. The Nats owe him that — But not for more than 2 years. Reevaluate then — Rendon will be more than ready by then.

Is there some clause in the Washington Post employment contract that says employees must suck up to Boswell? I just listened to that 106.7 interview with him (or most of it anyway, until it crashed my computer) and the guy sounds like a total hump. An arrogant, condescending hump. Clearly he started believing his own press a long time ago.

I didn't mean trade him now — it's not actually a problem now and might not ever be. Stuff changes, stuff happens, situations change. Sign Zim and give him the no trade clause. If Rendon is good later and is blocked by zim, then trade him – you know, in the future.

I really hope this contract gets worked out. This is going to be an amazing year for the Nats. Zim is kinda like me in a (small) way. We've been here through absolutely the lowest points a ball club can see and now that things are looking up, we both want to be there for the good stuff! Whatever the holdup is…..Mr. Lerner, you won't regret locking him up and the fan base will be eternally grateful. BTW, do you really wanna see Zim on another team "walking off" against us?NatsJack…looking forward to your pics tomorrow.
- Erik - Feb 24, 2012 at 2:30 AM
Hate to be Mr. Negative here, but no way is Zimmerman worth 18-20 million per year. So sick of hearing about the "Face of the Franchise." excuse to give him that kind of money. Nats should wait and see what they have in Rendon before giving Zim a long-term deal. All of that money could go a long way in signing either 2 very good players or a superstar player like Joey Votto. No reason to panic now and sign a "good" player when the club has 2 more years to gather more information…especially since once he signs they will not be able to trade him. I love Zim to death, but I want the Nats to win championships, too. Zim has only given the Nats 19.6 WAR in 7 seasons. I seriously doubt there are many guys like that getting 150 million dollar contracts. Joe Mauer, by comparison, has given the twins more than 40 WAR in the same time period and I thought HIS contract was a mistake.
- Anonymous - Feb 24, 2012 at 2:40 AM
Erik.. here is the good thing. The Lerner's are LOADED. It's their money, we are just playing with it!
- Anonymous - Feb 24, 2012 at 2:46 AM
I'm strongly of the view that retaining Zimm is more than worth (pun intended) the risks involved. Mark and Kilgore give two very different takes on the likelihood, though, so I'm confused (so what else is new?. Kilgore tonight suggests "several major obstacles" are left, including no-trade clause, and the implication is it is looking unlikely. Mark seems to treat no-trade as a negotiating point but not an intractable one, and his message is the sides are coming closer. So, since we are again playing Rosencrans and Guildenstern, not really knowing what is going on, what's the informed speculation on this? Close, or close to failure?
- HHover - Feb 24, 2012 at 2:50 AM
How can they possibly be "close to failure" when they have 2 years left to work it out?
- SCNatsFan - Feb 24, 2012 at 2:50 AM
First of all, lets dispell two things…There is no such thing as a 'no trade' clause – its just leverage a player applies when its time for him to move on. Or leverge for an extension of the contract.Second, like sec 3 says, you can't trade Rendon even if you wanted to and why wold you trade a guy in a system devoid of offensive talent.The hard part is deciding on the value of a guy who has been injured a bunch, but like the overpriced Werth signing if this deal gets done it just adds more credibility to the franchise, which can only be a good thing moving forward. I suspect it gets done and he doesn't get what Tulowitski got but he gets a significant payday. Rendon, if he's as good as his draft spot, will find his way somewhere in the lineup, good hitters always do. Worst case scenario is we have a offensive beast stuck in the minors who will be one heck of a trade chip, a problem we as fans have only dreamed of.
- JaneB - Feb 24, 2012 at 2:57 AM
In other news. good for Ryan Braun (and all baseball, frankly) — he won his drug testing appeal. Phew.
- SCNatsFan - Feb 24, 2012 at 3:06 AM
JaneB, not sure if that is true. If the tech held the sample for 36 hours and that time didn't change the sample – and I have no idea if it does – and he's getting off on a technicality then I think it sends a horrible message. I haven't seen the statement from the arbitrator so I'll be interested to see what he used for his decision. If this is simply another case of someone rich buying justice with great lawyers then its sad – typical, but sad.
- whatsanattau - Feb 24, 2012 at 3:08 AM
maybe this is an old discussion thread as I had a busy day today, but have we discussed the possibility that Oswalt's best mid-season destination could be the Nationals so as to replace Strasburg when his 160 are up?
- FS - Feb 24, 2012 at 3:13 AM
Sec 3, awesome post @ 8:43 PM.Just hope RZ is signed soon to a team-friendly deal.
- FS - Feb 24, 2012 at 3:15 AM
whatsanattau, great idea but 160 innings last until August end. Not sure Oswalt will be available until then. It would be great if we decide to get him in June or July for fifth spot once we know we are in the hunt for sure.
- HHover - Feb 24, 2012 at 3:18 AM
It's true in a sense that Braun won the appeal on a "technicality," but that was about the only he could win–the way the rules are written, a player can't get off by claiming that he didn't intentionally or knowingly take a supplement, and it's virtually impossible to attack the science of the test itself. But because he won on a "technicality," it means that plenty of people will continue to suspect that he used a PED.
- HHover - Feb 24, 2012 at 3:19 AM
erm, make that "intentionally or knowingly take a PED"
- NatsNuts - Feb 24, 2012 at 4:05 AM
Erik, you are right. He will be grossly overpaid just like Werth and unfortunately when players are overpaid there will be others like Morse who may not get his payday here because of budgetary constraints. I don't care how supposedly rich Lerner is, there are still limits called the budget.
- nats guy - Feb 24, 2012 at 6:37 AM
The Ryan Braun decision will have major ramifications on the CBA. It could be as big as the case involving Curt Flood and the reserve clause. I don't believe there will be a friendly CBA again. The players are all going to be tainted by this.
- MicheleS - Feb 24, 2012 at 12:22 PM
Nats Guy.Totally agree. It's going to hurt both sides, because they can't trust the testing system. I hope they come together and amend/fix this. Too much good will over the last 20 years to be lost over this.
- NatsLady - Feb 24, 2012 at 12:34 PM
Here is a link to the Yahoo article explaining in detail what happened. I also read Braun's statement. I guess they are happy in Milwaukee, but no one else seems to be.http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=jp-passan_ryan_braun_appeal_drug_program_selig_022312
- natsfan1a - Feb 24, 2012 at 12:42 PM
After reading this ESPN piece, I don't see the Braun decision as being good for baseball. According to the piece, Braun did not argue tampering, nor did he call the science of the testing into question. Rather he questioned the chain of custody. According to a source quoted in the piece, a delay in delivery of the specimen would not have caused a positive reading for exogenous testosterone.
- Constant Reader - Feb 24, 2012 at 12:51 PM
Braun's case is a total nightmare. The process calls for complete confidentiality. None of us should know ANYTHING about his test and his 'successful' appeal. Now a popular player, a star signed to a long term deal from a smaller market team that helps make the case for competitive balance is totally sullied due in large part due to the fact that he in no way challenged the outcome of the test, the science of the test, even that the technicality that allowed him to declare his innocence could have led to a compromised outcome. The only way Braun can 'save his good name and restore his reputation' is to provide something to the public that sounds like a remotely explanation for the outcome. Again, something that under the CBA he should NEVER have to do.Total nightmare.

They should do what the government does. Put together a super committee made up of people who couldn't get it done in the first place. Then watch them not get it done again. Oh wait, they did that already. So, now we're back to…couldn't get it done in a couple of years so let's get it done, now, in a couple of days. Yeah, for the love of the game. GO NATIONALS!!
- Theophilus - Feb 24, 2012 at 1:14 PM
If the issue w/ Zimmerman is really about a no-trade clause then they are only arguing about the next four years because, when he becomes a 10-year player the CBA gives him full trade protection. So the debate, if it continues, should only be about which clubs he can veto — whether five, ten, fifteen, usw. Find a number; give him a $3MM trade bonus, make a deal. I don't think Zimmerman has demonstrated he is "worth" $20MM/year. Like it or not, however, there are lots of not-HOF-worthy players that are making and will make $20MM/year and more. E.g., Vernon Wells. The real point is to keep the natives from revolting. So, he has to be signed at what has become the "market" price. If the Nats are truly fearful that Zimmerman will become Ray Knight instead of Mike Schmidt, they should try to shave a year or two off the deal so they don't have to get Zimmerman's consent to a trade to an AL team looking for a DH.Six years for $132MM, or seven for $150MM, sounds about right to me.If insurance, as Nats Jack says, is driving the Lerners' fears, then try to back-load the contract, like the Ramirez deal, and use the time value of money to pay the insurance premiums.There are so many ways to skin this cat . . ..
- Unkyd - Feb 24, 2012 at 1:17 PM
Read the ESPN piece. I think it's idiocy, to time one of these collections in a manner that would necessitate a sample spending a couple of days in someone' s basement!!! That's nuts! Why, then, would Braun challenge the science, if a much more likely avenue exists to nullify the results. Guilty or innocent, Brauns strategy was smart, and effective. And, this never has to happen again, if the testing facilities ensure that samples are not handled in anything resembling a dubious manner. A process like this has to bend over backwards to avoid even the appearance of impropriety… This doesn't have to be a big deal…

February 24, 2012 7:42 AM _______________________________Their strategy was to be non-accusatory and just question the procedures while casting doubt. There was enough doubt about the unusually high reading. When chain of control procedures are broken that could mean there is the ability to tamper.

Braun has become Palmeiro. Except that Palmeiro can just keep his trap shut and isn't expected to give post-game interviews for the next 5-6 years.I don't think the public will think multitudes of players are cheating, because MLB will continue to charge, adjudicate and leak. But Braun's brilliant defense leaves him squarely in the spotlight. If his public position continues to be, "I didn't use PEDs; the test was wrong," it will be the equivalent of "I didn't bet on baseball;" nobody will believe him. He'll become as wildly adored as Alex Rodriguez (outside of NY).

Just went through all 5 interviews with SS – he comes across as a really nice kid, no ego but you can see he cares – I am not sure I have seen him sit and talk for such a long time – credit Kelli J. with probably getting him to relax, especially the last part where they talk golf, shrimping and tweeting. I have always liked KJ and think she is a star at Comcast. I realize that Boz also complimented her but her work with the Redskins and Nationals has always been first ratego Nats sign Zimm!!
- NatsLady - Feb 24, 2012 at 1:35 PM
It's not clear to me that "chain of command" procedures were broken. Apparently it's standard procedure for samples to be stored in a collector's refrigerator (in other sports) and the seals were not broken. Yes, perhaps the collector should have called around or driven around to find an open FedEx store, but he probably was not reading the fine print of the CBA. As to why the testing was scheduled for such an hour, I would assume they test at the time when they feel there is a chance of getting a positive result, namely before and after big games. My feeling is that although Braun won his case with clever lawyering, he didn't do the game of baseball any favors.
- sjm308 - Feb 24, 2012 at 1:45 PM
Natslady:agree completely. this is not a great day for baseball, although I am betting the Brewers are breathing a little easier. not that I am waiting eagerly for the next "case" but there will certainly be some scrutiny on how it was handled.

Apr 5, 2013What can I say about this other than it's amazing? It's everything you want in a horror film. It's bloody, gory, and disgusting all in a good way. It never fails to keep a creepy time to it throughout the film. It all looks just so realistic too. There's no CGI. Only practical effects which makes it 10 times better. I'll probably see this movie 3 more times while it's in theaters
Apr 5, 2013This remake of the 1981 classic really delivers. It's very entertaining in a scary sense and in a gory sense. The only real problem about this movie is that it's too short. An amazing horror thriller like this should be at least 2 hours long. Not 91 minutes. Just too short. Overall, it's a scary/gory good time you'll have at the movies this year.
Jul 29, 2013
Sep 28, 2013Ok so i have been looking for a very long time.All i have to say is it's a "MUST SEE!" It is a very awesome gore fest, good story line, and it has no sex. I think that really good horror movies don't always need it.this movie had my blood running hott. It is epic!, why are you still reading!??!! Go watch it!.

Apr 20, 2013Few directors can control your emotions like Evil Dead does; Fede Alvarez crafts perfectly one of the best modern horror movies of the decade; sure, the original Evil Dead is better, but this remake makes you squirm in your seat and is an utterly assault on the senses. Astonishing.
Jun 30, 2013
Jul 5, 2013
Apr 25, 2013It does what all good remakes should do. Fede Alvarez focuses on create a film that he wanted to make, creating a style and experience that is unique to itself. But also adds references to please the fans of the original. However marks must be dropped for not being able to scare me once.
Apr 9, 2013
May 13, 2013I was spooked, I was grossed out, and I laughed. It was a great ride! What a treat to get an actual horror movie amongst the films that pass as horror these days. For a guy who grew up on this stuff, I had SO much fun watching this.
Apr 21, 2013I write screenplays as a hobby. That really means NOTHING when reviewing this movie. All I want to say is that I wish I could get the last 1 1/2 of my life and my $6 back. What a terrible, pointless, unenjoyable piece of poop. REALLY??????????
Apr 13, 2013
Apr 9, 2013no were close to evil dead 1981 or evil dead 2 and army of darkness. i thought it was going to be better then that. the acting was pretty good. just very disapointed and so was my mom. me and my mom are big evil dead fans
Apr 29, 2013
Jun 29, 2013Evil Dead is a first rate horror movie with a pleasant and developed plot with fascinating but scary as hell practical effects. It is the best horror movie out since Cabin in the Woods.
Jul 20, 2013Absolute garbage. Terrible story and writing, totally boring. Horrible acting. The only good things to mention are the special fx and it the film is short.

Apr 6, 2013This was simply an amazing movie. Plenty of blood and gore, great soundtrack, and it nailed the classic horror feel. The plot was very simple and sometimes corny which is why there's some hate, but you have to remember it's a remake of the 1981 movie. I'd highly recommend this movie to ANYONE. Don't listen to the hate. I'm probably going to go back and see this a few more times.

Apr 22, 2013Impressive 'reboot'. Pays a little homage to the original to when it's due, but includes its own spin. Gore? Check. Laughs? Check. Sinister? Check. Spooky sounds? Check. Awesome soundtrack? Check.

Jul 2, 2013I just can't believe the movie was awesome. It was totally mind-blowing. I loved the 1981 version, but this just got modified. Well, at first, i thought it was going to be another remake with dumb characters who doesn't take anything seriously. Thank god it doesn't. If you don't like heavy gore and have a faint of heart, then you better check out other movies. This is totally a keeper.

Apr 5, 2013I haven't seen the original, but if it's anything like this (or better like I hear) it is number one on my to do list. This was engaging, darkly comedic and entertaining. Sure it had stupid characters and cliche scares, but what else do you expect at this point? It's a love letter to horror films and fans of the old films will not be disappointed.
Apr 11, 2013If you've been half as disappointed in the horror movie genre during this whole paranormal activity craze as I have, its a great idea to go see this movie. From it's clever beginning to its brilliant end, you'll feel perfectly uncomfortable and delighted in all it's gory goodness. Best horror movie in years.
Apr 8, 2013A fantastic new vision on an already great franchise make this a must see for an die hard horror fan. A great ride from start to finish that features tons of thrills and tons and tons of blood.

Apr 7, 2013Groovy. For Evil Dead fans, it's the perfect remake of the original. There are definitely scares that deliver, but if you're looking for a gore-fest though, welcome home. Also high recommendation to stay till the very end of the credits. To sum up this movie; Groovy.
Apr 7, 2013Ok, this was a freaking scary movie. It reminded me of the old classics like Halloween (the original, of course) that put the fear of evil in you. From the beginning to the end, it was awesome. I kept wanted to turn away but just couldn't. Had to see all the gore. The make up and effects are so well placed. Reminded me of Cabin in the Woods. It is a def rent-to-own for Halloween movie!
Apr 5, 2013A masterpiece of terror, not so perfect, but good movie.
Apr 9, 2013An excellent re-imagining of an iconic movie. Ignore the romantic comedy fans posting negative reviews, this movie is destined to be a classic of horror...GO SEE IT NOW!

Apr 26, 2013I had really low expectations when going to see this, but was really surprised. It brings some of the original ideas and puts a more serious tone which surprisingly works alongside the fact there is no CGI. Also stay after the credits for a nice surprise.

Apr 9, 2013It was unbelievably so much better than the original. The character development was good, it was way more entertaining, it was way more realistic, and the ending was way better. Despite it being disgustingly gruesome and at times I covered my eyes in the movie theater, I felt that it really brought a new kind of style to the horror genre. I can't wait until Army Of Darkness 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jun 2, 2013There is a lot of gore here withe a story that allows me to at least recommend seeing it once if you like horror movies. Don't go in expecting to care about any of the characters cause you won't.

May 5, 2013Movie is scary and i didn't sleep after trailer. really good job and i really love this movie i will watch it over and over.And It have a hectoliters of blood.
Jul 17, 2013
Apr 6, 2013I was really excited for this movie as the original scared the hell out of me as a teen. However, it just didn't deliver in the "scare factor". Like most new horror movies,it relied too much on gore and not enough on suspense.
It is very well made,and has a few creepy moments,but most reaction will be from cringing at the various injury scenes.
Overall i was let down,it was just "ok" in my book.
Despite much old-school splatter, it's seldom frightening and oddly unfunny.
It is nowhere near as creepy as the recent indie horror "V/H/S," but it is a full-bloodedly grisly and macabre film that zaps over a few scares.
Apr 15, 2013Closer to Eli Roth than Sam Raimi, this brutal retread combines J-horror atmospherics with torture-porn kills. It's more evisceration than invention but at least has the courage of its bloody-minded convictions.

Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille. The only fragrance I have that lasts literary more than 24 hours.
I am fairly obsessed with buying frags that last all day on me...If I spend the money, I want to smell it 5+ hours. Most Montales and Most Bond no 9's fit the bill. NOT that they all smell good, most Bn9's smell awful, but I love New York Amber and I can smell it on my pillow the next day (24hrs longevity) Montale Black Aoud, Dark Aoud, Louban, and Cuir d'Arabie also last long and smell good.
For Sale: VINTAGE Montales
...the first that comes to my mind is... Havana
Joop Homme! .. by a long, looooong way. Even the after shave version blows away any EDT or EDP I've ever tried. And I've tried some of the big hitters mentioned on here such as Aventus, 1 million, Tobacco Vanille.. Joop Homme is an absolute monster. I actually quite like the smell but I'm too embarrassed to wear it in public because it is ruthlessly strong stuff.

Vintage Bijan for Men. This is easily the one in my wardrobe that requires the most controlled application. Any more than a couple sprays of this and people in other rooms will know you're there.
I don't have a signature fragrance. My signature changes a little bit every day, why shouldn't my fragrance?
Voted for Jaipur, which I really adore, but Havana seems stronger- just not a huge fan of it...
Bijan(vintage) for men is the winner,and everyone here knows that,I think alot of people dont like scent of Bijan,
vintage Bijan for men has powerfull sillage, long lasting projection quality,after 18 hours later its still projecting as 18 hours ago,I respect everyone opinions,but there is no fragrance in this thread which have long lasting projection quality
the vintage Bijan for men is a powerhouse fragrance
I tried alot of really powerfull fragrances and my goal was to find strongest one with all powerfull qualities, and I can recommend you with confidence that
you can say "my vintage Bijan will punk any frag you have in your arsenal"

I respect youre opinion
since this thread opened in Male Fragrance Discussion,thats why I did not counted women fragrances
those fragrances are for women,of course those are strong but in a womanly way,I think if any man wear Poison or Amarige he will become she, Poison & Amarige are women fragrances

Thanks for telling me what I know rather than asking me. That's very not-rude of you, except for the part about it actually being quite rude. ONE spray of Black Afgano is all it takes to blow a hole in your theory, though I'd rather go with 2 sprays of Interlude Man. My god, that stuff is crazy strong and lasts 24 hours. And, in this case, I'm just talking about 2 sprays from a sample vial which might equal only one from an actual bottle. Still, I don't doubt Black Afgano is stronger.
You might want to do a search here. You'll find that a lot of men (including straight men, in case that's an issue for you) wear Poison. And they get some pretty excellent feedback from women.
Agreed! Talk about a facepalm.

Gotta agree with those who said Portrait of a Lady
I think the one that other people notice the most from a distance is Terre d'Hermes, though.
sure. so why don't you wear a dress and tampons?

I will open thread Bijan(vintage) vs Interlude Man vs Black Afgano and we will see,how many people will vote,and which fragrance will be winner
For some reason, when a men wear something that is stereotypically feminine, that is seen as being weak. It's not right, but that's the way it is

Founder- Cosa Nosetra
Vintage Giorgio For Men - One spray was enough for all day beastly projection.
I'm not sure if you ever smelled Black Afgano......but vintage Bijan is not stronger than that. And that's just one of the top of my head. Speaking in absolutes isn't the wiesest thing, unless you've tried every edition, of ever scent ever created. As far as fragrances for men and women go. My friend, I live in New York City. I only wear men's fragrances, but I have friends who are pretty highly esteemed in the business community (a few in the power set as well) and some of them wear scents commonly thought of as produced for females. It doesn't"make you any less of a man for doing so, it just means that people have different tastes than you do. And that's going to happen your entire life, so you better get used to it now.
Aventus for me has very strong sillage and projection. A bit too much actually...
I vote for two that others have mentioned: Van Cleef and Arpels PH and Tom Ford Amber Absolute. I'll offer another that I've had in my collection for quite a while and that only seems to get stronger as it ages: Aramis Gold.
Tobacco Vanille
Opium EDP
Lapidus pour homme
Salvador Dali pour homme
Arrogance EDP
Giorgio and Giorgio VIP
Van Cleef & Arpels pour homme (vintage)
Bel Ami (vintage)
And the winner is ... Lord by Molyneux
tin can Rive Gauche
Why bother even replying to this guy(HOVO)? Ignorance should be isolated to be extinguished and letting him get under your skin only provokes more asinine comments from him. Besides, if he hasnt figured out some of the amazing scents marketed towards women that work well on men too, then that leaves more for us right? Not to mention Bijan has to be one of the most repulsive and dated frags I have ever smelled to date.
Bijan is a monster, but it isn't the most powerful powerhouse. Lapidus, OMS Gold, Bogart PH, Kouros, Enrico Sebastiano, and Giorgio are all stronger to me.
From a recent purchase: Prada Amber PH Intense.
Smells great, but you have to take it easy on the trigger. I spritzed on three sprays, and I had to slide down most of the windows in my car, in the middle of February in NY, on a parkway.
From what I hear, By Kilian Taste of Heaven is pretty potent as well; one well placed spray is all you need.
Costume National Homme.
"Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp,
Or what's a heaven for?"
- Robert Browning, "Andrea del Sarto"
Carnal Flower and Portrait of a Lady are strong but Black Aoud wins it for me.
Giorgio of BH for man leaves all the rest to shame.
Lapidus pH, One Man Show, Sung Homme come next.
NONE of them on your list!!!!!
Perfume lovers of the world UNITE!!!!!
Red Aoud - Montale
Platinum Egoiste or Aventus
Hello all, I'm a basenotes virgin. First post! From my collection I would have to pick DHI reformulated, followed closely by Bogart PH ,Eau de Baux, and Black Orchid.
Black Aoud
Nuclear, but I like this aspect of it. One of many fantastic attributes this fragrance possesses
Tobacco Vanille
1 million
Black Afgano followed by
Pure Distance M
Mont Blanc Legend is greattt in both departments and it is huge compliment getter as well.
Currently on my Rotation:
1. Cartier D'un Soir
2. Loewe Essencia
3. Bergamotto Marino
4. Herb Alpert Listen
5. Artisan
6. Bang
8. Pal Zileri No 18
9. TdH
0. Kenzo Homme
Winter Star - Michael Storer
In my collection without question, Rien
I've had several project like a beast sometimes but not others.
I think Aventus is my overall winner only because it's my most complimented which gives me some indication it's projecting fairly well.
It's interesting how much skin chemistry has to do with it because even VC&A's Midnight in Paris has nice projection and longevity for me.
Now my girlfriend's Midnight Poison never ceases to amaze me. Best fragrance purchase I ever made. It lingers in a room for an hour after she's sprayed it twice and I can always smell it after an 8-10 hr. work day. Funny because it's an edt, too.
From what I have tried so far:
Projection - Kouros (ridiculous)
Longevity - DHI
Leather oud by Dior
New York oud by bond 9
Coromandel by Chanel
Bond No 9 NY Amber
3 sprays of Aventus and i pissed off a few people, mostly women.
Interlude for me
Boucheron Pour Homme edp

The New School for Social Research
The New School > The New School for Social Research NSSR > Mapping the Human
Apply Online | Contact
This course explores definitions of the human in two intertwined contexts: 1) in an increasingly technological society, and 2) in relation to the (other) animals that we class and dismiss as non-human. What is human? What is /not/ human? These questions have been asked, explicitly and surreptitiously, in different ways and in different
epochs, usually by those who write and act in the human subject's name. As with many slippery categories, we may have difficulty arriving at a solid definition; however, we feel confident that we are in the presence of "humanity" when we see it, or interact with it. The human comes in many conceptual types: ontological, ethical, political, biological,
cultural, etc. It is thus a revealing task to "map" the human on to key texts and sites in contemporary society, in order to better understand the myriad assumptions "we" have inherited from the past. This course is a vigilant questioning of fixed modes of categorization (taxonomy), especially those subliminal binaries we take so much for granted. The syllabus reflects a belief that the /form/, /structure/, /deployment/
and /presence/ of media are as crucial to understanding and reconfiguring "culture" than distanced, would-be objective readings of assumed /content/. Nevertheless, the content of humanity -- "the species without qualities" -- will be also at issue during our discussions. Works studied include Giorgio Agamben's The Open: of Man and Animal; Harold Bloom's Invention of the Human; Bruno Latour's A Collective of Humans and Nonhumans; plus additional works by Norbert Wiener, Donna Haraway, Glen A. Mazis, Marshall McLuhan, F.T. Marinetti and Friedrich Kittler.

I was in the midst of reading "Columbine" by Dave Cullen as I read my way through this year's American Library Association Notable Books list. It's a good book, but intense. After a nightmare involving a Columbine-like incident at the Omaha Public Library (remember, just a dream!), I realized that I needed a break. So I took home "The Vagrants."
It wasn't that much of a break.
Here's what I wrote in a review in Visual Bookshelf:
"I chose this book because it's on the American Library Association Notable Books list. I expect that many people would consider it depressing--I found it so, too.
Li weaves together the lives of several people in the [fictional Chinese] town of Muddy River in the late 1970's. Widespread poverty, the sense of lingering loss from the Cultural Revolution, and ongoing scheming to get ahead without getting caught, combine to destroy trust and love...or maybe trust and love don't exist much here. I feels like nobody has a haven, either in a place, or in a person's arms.
And I think that's the author's point...that things became so crazy in China that the bonds that hold people together in the best ways, through family, friendships, and rewarding work, are broken. And "The Vagrants" leads us to face the dismal result. Not an easy read, but sometimes we ought to face and rocognize evil."
What I'd add to that is that Li does a wonderful job of introducing a cast of characters, and then interweaving their lives. These aren't necessarily people that we'll come to love and trust and hope the best for, but they are distinct individuals, well-drawn. She reveals their particular vulnerabilities, and we learn how they'll suffer for them.
I'd recommend this to readers who are interested in China, especially on the impact of recent politics there, who love a novel with interweaving plots, and who don't insist on a happy ending.

Bridget Thomas is a founder of Kirksville - Protect Our Pets (KV-POP), a non-profit organization dedicated to community outreach for the benefit of the area's pet dogs and cats. KV-POP helps low-income (or no-income) people spay/neuter, train, and tag their pets. Their ultimate goal is to help people care for their pets and thereby reduce the number of animals surrendered to overcrowded shelters. KV-POP also promotes adooption from a local shelter or rescue. She was a board member of the Adair County Humane Society from 2008-2013.
I haven't written a blog entry for a couple of weeks because I have been busy with a grant application. Several months ago I put our name on a waiting list for a special ASPCA relocation program, and just recently got the green light to submit a full application. This may or may not turn into anything, but we thought it was worth a try.
Members of the Adair County Humane Society may be familiar with our relocation program from reading the annual newsletter. But other folks probably have no idea how many hundreds of dogs we save every year by transporting them to rescue organizations in other parts of the country. In 2012 alone we transported 598 dogs! This is above and beyond the number adopted from our shelter! This is a tremendous achievement!
Before I go any further, let me first say that adoption is our number one priority. If we could find homes in our area for all of the homeless animals at the shelter, we would be more than happy to do so. But it's not the case; there aren't enough adopters here to provide homes for all of the homeless dogs and cats. So we try hard to promote spay/neuter to limit the number of unwanted animals in the area, and we also work hard to transport animals from our shelter to rescue organizations in more populous areas where there is a greater demand for adoptable animals.
Our shelter manager (Missy) began our relocation program several years ago. The shelter was suddenly very crowded after state inspectors confiscated twenty dogs from a breeding facility and brought them to us. That's when Missy started making phone calls. With the help of a network of other animal welfare advocates, she was able to move these animals out of our shelter and to rescue groups.
In recent years her collaboration with rescue groups has been especially important for helping mama dogs and their puppies get through their first eight weeks together. If we can transport these animals together and guarantee them a spot in a foster home, we usually do it. This reduces the stress for mama and also frees up room in our shelter for other dogs in need.
Rescue groups tend to specialize in a particular breed of dog. A couple of years ago we arranged for several Beagles to travel to a rescue group in Colorado. Two rescue volunteers, a retired couple, drove their RV on a multi-state trip to save Beagles. One poor old dog who had been malnourished and tick-infested before coming to the shelter was one of the lucky ones to travel with them. He has since been adopted and is now living at a resort in Vail, Colorado. Must be nice!
We lose money on every dog we send to a rescue because we provide basic care (including de-worming and vaccines) before transport. Plus sometimes we have to drive the animals hundreds of miles to meet our contacts. This requires a significant investment of time and money. But we think that this is both what our mission charges us to do and what the community wants us to do: save more lives.
Which brings me to this grant. The ASPCA grant challenges us to transport even more dogs this month than we did last May. If we are successful, we will get a small stipend to reimburse us for some of our costs.
To be honest we could really use the money. The cost of food, medicine, and fuel continues to rise. And our treasurer is already starting to worry about next winter's heating bills. Support of our relocation program – whether it be from a large organization like the ASPCA or from local individuals who want to encourage us to save even more animals – is always welcome.
