I wouldn't recomend this toaster The toaster takes about 5 minutes to toast regular bread. The left side of my toaster only toasts in bagel mode even though the setting is for toast.

Sinterklaas is coming to town - and some Dutch are upset
"I understand it's in their tradition to celebrate the event but I have to admit I am deeply offended," says Patrick Chapell, an African-American musician living here in Utrecht.
Zwarte Piet - whose multiple incarnations are portrayed by white Dutchmen sporting black greasepaint, red lipstick, and woolly Afro wigs - is supposedly darkened by his countless chimney trips delivering presents. But variations on the legend say the Moorish-looking helper came from a slave background.
Mr. Chapell is not alone in his dislike of the tradition, which dates back to the 12th century. Many - especially those people of color who make up 25 percent of the country's population - are also offended.
But where some see offense, others see fun. "It's our tradition and I am really proud of it," says Marjoline Wentzel, a Dutch-born museum worker who has received gifts from Sinterklaas. "I don't see any racism in it. It's just fun."
In many Dutch towns, thousands of people flood the busy streets hoping to catch a glimpse of Sinterklaas and his convoy as Piet poses for pictures with his fans....
Dutch historian Bert Theunissen says Sinterklaas has been celebrated long enough in the Netherlands to dispel any racial implications.
"I think I speak on behalf of many Dutch people when I say it's utter nonsense to associate it with racism," says Mr. Theunissen, a history professor at Utrecht University. "It's a tradition that goes back to way before the 19th century and it simply has no racial connotations whatsoever."

The article says "some Dutch are upset." The only person the article cites who is upset is an American musician living in Utrecht. The article also says that "variations on the legend say the Moorish-looking helper came from a slave background." That sounds like a recent invention intended to introduce U.S. sensitivities here. It's certainly no well-known variation. St. Nicholas, a bishop, is consistently portrayed in mitre and with a crozier (unlike the derivative Santa Claus). He is accompanied by Moorish helpers who throw candy to good children but whose punishment of naughty children is to put them in a bag and take them back to Spain, where the bishop comes from. This is not a medieval tradition. It probably reflects sixteenth-century Dutch history. In 1559 the government of Philip II, King of Spain and ruler of the Low Countries, increased the number of Netherlandish dioceses. Each of these new bishops (who could be considered to have come from Spain's government, even though some bishops were themselves Dutch)was accompanied by two official anti-heresy inquisitors. None of these inquisitors was a Moor; but to the Dutch, until recently, most Spanish were considered rather dark. So the imagery has some power to scare naughty Calvinist children. The reality of the Inquisition has been largely forgotten. Perhaps it lives on in Zwarte Piet.

I'm doing sql upgrade from slq 2000 to sql 2008, i have to find out the queries or sp or batch statements which are using xp_cmdshell on sql 2000 machine and need to remove them from SQL 2008 and redirect them to different server.
Welcome to forums.. I will go for server side trace on sp stmt completed and SQL stmt completed events and put a filter on Textdata like '%xp_cmdshell%" and monitor them. If you are using only stored queries (stored procedures, triggers etc.) you can search syscomments to see them. Hope this helps
You can also run UPGRADE ADVISOR to see any additional warnings/errors are displayed during this operation, in any case do what Preethi suggested.
But sql 2000 is critical production machine,they never allow me to run trace on the machine,This is side by side upgrade.Better to have any query or powershell script.Thanks for very quick reply...
You can restore 2000 database in 2008 (using compatibility and for test), install Red Gate SQL Search http://www.red-gate.com/products/sql-development/sql-search/ free, and search what you want. HTH
Sorry. Reading you first question and Preethi answer, I thought in the wrong way. Back to actual question, I have no idea.
..if you are not able to run Profiler, setup a server side trace to capture the events. Thats a best practice and low contention activity when your production server is highly transactional.

Keo.co.za brought you the key moments from the Vodacom Tri-Nations match in Wellington.
All Blacks - Tries: Piri Weepu, Richie McCaw. Conversions: Dan Carter (2). Penalties: Carter (7).
Springboks - Tries: Fourie du Preez, Breyton Paulse. Conversions: Percy Montgomery (2). Penalties: Montgomery (2).
Key moments:
77min – Carter chips and regathers his kick before putting McCaw away for the All Blacks second try. Carter converts (9/9)
73min – The Boks are penalised again and Carter kicks the penalty (8/8).
72min – Carter puts in the cross kick for Hamilton whose inside pass is knocked on by Paulse.
70min – Monty lets the ball bounce from the kick off and Williams knocks on just before the tryline as he tries to apply pressure. The TMO looks at several replays and gives the Boks a 5m scrum.
69min – Now it's the All Blacks who are penalised at the scrum. Hayman didn't bind properly. Monty kicks the penalty (3/6).
68min – The Boks are holding onto the ball but go nowhere after seven phases.
66min – Boks lose the line-out and Tuitupou breaks away. Carter doesn't see the defender behind him and knocks on in the tackle.
65min – Tuitupou high tackles Monty and the Boks set up the line-out on the All Blacks 22.
64min – All Blacks penalised for taking out Smith at the line-out. Monty's kick hits the post (2/5).
61min – The Boks win the scrum and Fourie kicks to the corner for Paulse, who claims the ball and scores the Boks second try. Monty converts (2/4).
60min – Monty boots the ball downfield and Howlett knocks on. Bad mistake from the winger.
55min – Cronje breaks away from a Bok line-out, but the All Blacks are awarded a penalty soon after. They get another 10m as the Boks don't retreat quicky enough. Weepu is on the ground in some pain … seems to be a knee injury he picked up when tackled by Habana. He seems to be OK but is replaced by Cowan.
54min – Os comes back on to the field.
53min – The All Blacks turn the ball over from a Bok scrum, but knock on three phases later. Somerville comes on for Tialata.
51min – Williams rounds Smit and offloads to Howlett who kicks out on the full.
50min – Smit is penalised for coming over the top at a ruck. Oliver actually drove his skipper over. Carter kicks the penalty (7/7).
48min – Smit's boot connects with Os at a ruck and the prop leaves the field. Andrews takes his place.
45min – Boks take a quick penalty tap and knock it on.
44min – The All Blacks counterattack from inside their half and Hamilton scores a fantastic try … but the referee calls play back for a forward pass to MacDonald earlier in the move. Boks are lucky to escape that.
42min – This time Oliver finds Jack and they set up the maul. Smit is penalised for being off his feet and Carter kicks his fifth penalty (6/6).
42min – The Boks poach their third All Black line-out. Oliver is really struggling.
41min – Tyibilika is penalised at the ruck and Carter finds touch inside the Bok 22.
40min – Disaster for the Boks as Weepu scores on the half-time hooter. Carter dances his way past two defenders, before Muliania breaks away down the left hand touchline. Hamiton's inside pass goes into no-man's land, but Weepu picks up the loose ball and plants the ball on the line. Boks will rue not finding touch earlier. Carter converts (5/5).
38min – All Blacks penalised for coming into the ruck from the side, although replays show Matfield was holding on. Monty misses another penalty attempt at goal (1/3). Boks should be ahead by now.
37min – Boks put more pressure on the All Blacks and MacDonald hacks the ball into touch. Bok line-out on the All Blacks 22m line.
36min – Smit's throw is poor and the All Blacks poach the line-out. Fortunately for the Boks the ball is kicked directly into touch. Olivier is down injured … but gets back up.
35min – The Boks win the line-out, but the All Blacks drive them back and force the turnover.
34min – The Boks drive it up, before Du Preez breaks away and finds James, who is tackled just a metre out from the All Black tryline. The forwards bash away but can't get over. The referee goes back for the penalty, which the Boks kick into touch.
30min – The All Blacks work their way into the Bok 22 and the Boks are penalised again for offsides. Penalty count is now 7-2. Carter makes no mistake (4/4).
29min – Monty slices his clearance kick and the All Blacks get another line-out on the Bok 22m line, this time on the left hand touchline.
28min – The All Blacks try to drive it up, but the ball doesn't come out quickly enough and the Boks get the scrum.
27min – Hamilton knocks the ball on in the air, but the referee doesn't see it. Monty is tackled into touch. All Blacks have the line-out on the Bok 22.
25min – The All Blacks knock on and the ball is played by another player in an offside position. Williams complains that he was tackled in the air without the ball. Monty goes for goal … but his kick goes past the left hand upright. Bad miss (1/2).
23min – Van der Linde is penalised at the scrum for not binding properly. Carter kicks his third penalty to put the All Blacks into the lead (3/3).
22min – MacDonald chips ahead and Habana is penalised. All Blacks take the quick tap and attack again. Two greats tackles, by Du Randt and Fourie, see the ball turned over.
21min – Du Preez can't control Weepu's kick and Cronje knocks on. First bad mistake from the Boks.
19min – Thorne bashes it up … as does Muliaina. Fourie is penalised at the ruck … referee says his left knee touched the grass. Tough call, but Carter adds the three points.
18min – Boks accidently offsides, All Blacks get a scrum on the halfway line near the left hand touchline.
17min – James kicks again and MacDonald runs it back. All Blacks tackled into touch.
16min – McCaw tackles Monty into touch and tries to get the ball for a quick throw. Monty holds on the two wrestle for a few seconds. Nothing serious.
15min – Weepu comes back onto the field.
14min – Boks attack again, but are guilty of lateral running. Paulse runs backwards and is tackled before James kicks to the left hand touchline. No advantage to the Boks and they come back for the scrum (the first of the match).
13min – Weepu leaves the field injured, holding his arm. Cowen comes on.
12min – Poor throw from Oliver and the Boks poach a line-out. They work their way up field before being penalised again.
9min – Matfield wins the line-out and the Boks take it through four phases, before being penalised for holding on, 5m out from the tryline.
8min – All Blacks are pinned at the ruck. Monty sets up the line-out on the All Blacks 22m line.
7min – Carter kicks again into the Boks' 22. Habana takes the mark and then finds touch on the halfway line.
4min – Boks are penalised for offsides and Carter will go for goal from about 30m out. Carter sends it through the posts. (1/1).
3min – Carter kicks an up and under that goes to far. Paulse can't take the ball catch cleanly, but Smit picks up and passes to Habana. Boks clear for touch.
1min – James kicks off … Boks are playing from left to right. Carter tries to clear for touch from inside his 22 and his kick is charged down by Du Preez who scores after just 17 seconds! What a start for the Boks! Monty kicks the conversion (1/1).
k/o – Perfect weather conditions in Wellington.

Not of This Earth...
A meteor carrying an unknown infection, lands outside a small Californian community, bringing terror and death. Just after midnight, a local rancher named Larry Jenkins discovers the meteor and calls the police. Inspector Bardo is sent to the scene to investigate. The small Lawton police department is shorthanded, as it is the night of the high school prom. Arriving at a desolate forest road miles out of town, Bardo discovers that Jenkins has been infected by the alien organism. The officer is savagely attacked and infected. Both men head towards Lawton, terrorizing and contaminating everyone they encounter. Meanwhile, Cheryl and Timmy have left the prom and are parked atop Lover's Lane. Bardo comes upon the lovebirds and attacks them, infecting Timmy. Now Cheryl must run for her life through the pitch-black forest, escaping her pursuers and trying to reach the authorities before the infection spreads to L.A. |

Love these shoes.
They popped up on sale at STP for under $85 and I thought to give them a try. I live in the NW so something waterproof and somewhat insulated for winter. I've used them on weekenders and multiday trips. These combined with gaiters make an awesome combo even in 12+ inches of snow.
I'm flat footed and usually go for an E width, so was concerned with the narrow footbed, but I use my insoles and loosen the front laces then tighten up by the top and this allows for my foot to stretch in and relax.
Highly recommended.

Price Paid: $68
I own an assortment of Salomon trail runners/hikers, Keens, Asolo, Keen and Vasque backpacking boots. I've had these Asolo Contour GTX's for two days and had to force myself to take them off for bed.
I slid a set of Spenco polysorb dayhiker insoles in and fits like they were designed for them. Plenty of room for aftermarket insoles and that's a really, really, really good thing! Can't say that for many low-cuts. Many low-cuthikers won't allow for a beefy insole.
Hiking boots with an athletic cut...spectacular. My new favorites!!!
I've had these shoes for over one year now, and they…
Use: dayhikes (4-14 miles)
Break-in Period: 1 month daily wear
Price Paid: $100
I've had these shoes for over one year now, and they have accompanied me on many miles, whether it be over backcountry or through urban jungle. Mostly they have been used for day hikes with a good amount of elevation change (Northern CA/Sierras).
They are sturdy, waterproof, and not too heavy. The workmanship seems to be quite superb, although it will take several more years of use before I can truly state that they are bomb-proof.
The one issue that I have with these shoes is that they are not extremely breathable, and my feet can get hot in them on the warmer days. Other than that, these shoes fit well and perform well. Enjoy.
A great shoe. These have been one of the best hiking…
Source: bought it new
A great shoe.
- Comfortable
- Waterproof
- Wore through sole
These have been one of the best hiking shoes I have ever had. They are very similar to the Merrell Moab. I have used them for day-to-day use and light hiking. The durability is great. They offer a bit more cushion than the Merrell Moab but are not quite as breathable.
They fit true to size and width.

About shane
Within my lifetime, I seem to remember no data caps.
No cap, no worries. How is it easier for them to provide unlimited streaming from specific sources? Why not just unlimited streaming?
Because they long for the days of cable again. One way communication means all your information from the same people. Monopolies.
They love them.
You know, jumping out of a burning building and plummeting to your death isn't torture either. I'm sick and tired of the partisan witch hunt.
If American had any allies in the Democratic party, we would be allowed to fully win wars. Then all this sneaking around trying to find out who exactly it is we need to defend ourselves from would not be necessary.
Were any of you morons even alive when 9/11 happened?
Yes, cable is for crap. But underlying this is the fact that cable is about to own the internet. I think we need not only Title 2 net neutrality, but a massive deconstruction of cable monopolies in general.
The trend now seems to be an inexorable flow towards a very small number of people owning all of telecom. And while you may like to think of that as a conspiracy theory, this is exactly what happened with satellite. They eventually maneuvered around to illegalize, not capturing the signal, but descrambling it, which protected the centralized model for global communication for another two decades.
What is key is establishing a decentralized peer to peer model. The internet is doomed. It was open as long as it took to pay for the infrastructure. Now, a small number of people own the infrastructure, and technology is going to have to evolve away from it or else we are stuck with another dead end attempt at global open communication.
I've been observing for years now that, really, the internet is NOT like being in your house with a friend. It is a lot more like having a conversation with your friend across the street using code. What you do on the internet is public.
I've watched with increasing concern as the internet has been designed increasingly around "cloud services" - basically putting everything you do on the web somewhere. I have never liked this business model.
Maybe some folks will begin to rethink the downhill-only traffic flow model and insist they store their stuff on THEIR OWN COMPUTERS, and only transmit over the internet from and to THEIR OWN DEVICES so that they still own the instruments that contain their data.
That's the REAL defense against this nonsense. Stop letting the service provider dictate your business model. Stop buying sorry "services".
While no particular fan of Putin or Russia in general (And that's obviously part of the point of the article, isn't it? To tie anyone opposed to homosexuality as a fascist?), I will just repeat that the concept of homosexuality as an "orientation" is bankrupt, as it is entirely impossible to confirm or deny.
This concept has brought us to the brink of a Constitutional crisis in this nation, setting the right to celebrate what has for quite literally millenia been nigh universally seen as a grotesque sexual perversion in direct opposition to the literal wording of the Constitution, which prevents the state from establishing a religion or preventing the free exercise thereof.
I cannot imagine anyone at the time anticipated homosexuality being seriously promoted as an alternative to freedom of religion and freedom of conscience.
I am hopeful that, as the idiocy of the so called "research" establishing homosexuality as a sort of race, class, or gender all its own slowly becomes more publicly understood, that this grotesque violation of not just our civil rights, but of our ability to self govern AT ALL, will be understood and repudiated.
To put it even more bluntly, I am sick and tired of the political left pushing every conceivable sexual degradation as a civil right.
We were told we had to have almost no limits on porn in order to preserve freedom of the press and other civil rights.
Now we have plenty of porn, and also plenty of violations of our civil rights.
You people are not our friends, you who constantly foist sexual filth on us as if it were something we as a nation need more of.
What's sad is not that people recognize that a street full of black people is statistically likely to be more dangerous than a street with few black people. What's sad is that it is a statistical fact.
Being against prejudice means you judge each person on their own merits. It does not mean you refuse to acknowledge cultural differences.
The REASON these streets are more dangerous is that there were a couple of centuries of slavery coupled by a century and then some of legal oppression, then finally period we are in now where the oppression is cultural. We have decided we do not owe the descendants of the people whose culture we raped and pillaged as a nation entry into our better neighborhoods and schools, let alone our lives and our personal sphere of friends and acquaintances.
Even churches of the same denomination are to this day divided along racial lines in America.
We have a long way to go, but the problem is not helped by supporting riots pitched because a man in the process of committing a crime was shot while resisting arrest. I have little doubt the officer in this case made some egregious errors, as there just seems to be no excuse for him hopping out of his car solo to chase down the perpetrator, but the fact is that what he achieved at the end of the day was to mete out the death penalty for assault and petty theft, which is just ridiculous.
Defending the illegal mob mentality carnage though that occurred after the fact as if this were somehow the equivalent of Rosa Parks taking a seat on the bus is dishonest to the point of evil though. I am really sick of this tactic. It does nothing but provide excuses for the continued cultural divide, and give Democrats another few years of dominance of the black vote by deceit.
How is a Mormon Democrat anything resembling a family values conservative? The ties between porn and the Democratic party are well understood.
Also, I think it is a sad statement about the shrinking freedom of speech and of association in this country that someone would think that offering to fund someone's CAMPAIGN if they promise to vote on a specific issue in a specific way is "bribery". The entire purpose of electing officials is to cast a vote for someone to vote they way you want, and helping to pay for a campaign is classic freedom of association.
And then there's the fact that the vote was nigh unanimous anyhow? With one abstention?
What does it take to put a bow on something and call it a wrap these days?
I'm pretty sure what you are all missing here is the certain lack of engagement with larger issues.
I applaud you highlighting the distinction between these two pieces, but I hardly think it was an accident that they aired together. Subtlety helps on so many levels, especially behind the scenes.
I don't want to make TOO many excuses for the lapdog mentality the Democratic press has toward the Democratic party. I submit to you it's rather obvious why it is. Democratic business folk apparently get the importance of the media and have invested accordingly... But this particular episode seems more like an elegant and graceful stab at the heart of the Obama administration than it does some sort of mistaken and ignorant airing of seemingly opposed pieces, to me.
The excuses for all of this surveillance just do not hold water. We are constantly told the government is on top of all of this, and then terrorist attacks and large scale crimes happen all the time. There is still a ton of drug related crime. You're going to tell me they can prevent terror but can't prevent crack cocaine sales. It is fairly obvious the reason there have been so few terrorist attacks in the US is because the number of people willing to carry them out is substantially smaller than the number of people willing to traffic in narcotics.
There are not enough people in the world to effectively keep tabs on all the people in the world.
All this data just serves as a method for convicting someone based on circumstantial evidence after the fact.
It's like all of the arguments in support of torture. In the end, torture is actually detrimental to any military effort as it undercuts the perception of the just cause and also motivates the enemy to fight to the death rather than surrender. The reality of spying on citizens is that it causes the government itself to function as a criminal entity, undermines its authority, and in the end does no real good in terms of preventing the acts it purports to prevent. Rather, it replaces them with an even more pervasive threat of violence from the government itself.
Most of these questions have pretty simple plausible answers. Cashier's checks cost money. If you belong to a small bank or credit union you will not have a branch out of state.
Flying is often more expensive than driving. I could fly to my grandmother's but I tend to make the nearly five hour drive because the plane ticket is more than the gas and I hate airports these days.
Just in general, WHY SHOULD WE HAVE TO DO ANYTHING SPECIFIC TO AVOID THE GOVERNMENT STEALING. All of these questions you have ASSUME the people are doing something wrong. We are supposed to be innocent until PROVEN guilty, and no one is to lose life, liberty or property without due process of law.
These laws are patently unconstitutional. The practice needs to come to a screeching halt. The End.
That's my two cents.
I was randomly stopped and searched for drugs. The dog supposedly gave the go sign. Anyhow, I drive a car my grandmother drove before me, and neither of us do drugs or traffic them. The police found nothing. Lucky me they did not decide to impound the car and take it apart. Possibly some car mechanic left a roach in one of the doors when replacing the window motor...
Anyhow, stories like this infuriate me, and I am glad to see someone reporting on it, but what exactly does this have to do with tech?
Someone does something in support of your claimed issues and you deride them for it?
Cynicism only goes just so far, folks. Rand Paul is not Jesus Christ, but you might at least act like it matters to you when people support your causes. Otherwise you just come across as an anthill to be avoided at all costs.
More and more I am convinced there is a decidedly leftists bent to this blog. It's as if you're lobbying what you perceive to be your home team to come back to you or something.
"Technologies which has helped...." I think should be "...which have helped...."
A little too late it seems, since the tread is already quite lively. Or maybe I am wrong...
Porn was mainstreamed above the objections of most in the U.S. The argument was that it is a freedom of expression and free speech issue. Apparently, that only works if you have a method of making tons of money. SAVING people tons of money does not count.
It's sort of like how raw milk is unhealthy despite the fact that almost no one gets sick from it, but raw oysters are fine even though 15 or so people die from eating them every year.
Guess which side of each debate has the money?
"Artists... demand to get laid."
This goes back to concepts of who should be allowed to vote. As much as the "middle class" folks at the forefront of democratic movements in the early modern era supported the death of monarchy, they did NOT support democracy. What they supported was plutocracy, and that is what we have - with a few democratic outlets built in for appearances sake, and yes, to alert our leaders when there is a groundswell of resentment building.
Banking, whether central or not, is a method of centralizing control over the economy. When the government ceases taking payment of taxes in kind or in labor and begins to force us to pay taxes in little paper notes issued by a separate group of private interests, we are in effect being put in the service of these said individuals.
Intellectual property creates a situation where non-physical goods can be commoditized and thus plugged into this same system.
Limited liability ensures the owners cannot be held accountable. Corporate owners enjoy immunity to lawsuits similar to the immunity the government itself enjoys.
The stakeholders are the owners, and have been for pretty much all of human history. We are less, and not more free, than medieval man.
You are attacking only one branch of the system. Seek out the root. The root is the very concept of owning anything that one does not make themselves or else trade for. If you are not attacking rule by ownership, you are not attacking the actual problem. If there is no rule by ownership, then IP becomes immaterial. Rule must be consensus based, truly of by and for the people rather than merely nominally so.
Is that there is not enough pressure being put on politicians to stop supporting this sort of thing. I tried a month or two ago to get some folks interested in taking the Aaron Swartz issue to the streets, and even people here were not responsive.
Web sites are not going to get it done. Even EFF and Demand Progress are not organizing boots on the ground. I went to several Occupy Austin meetings and never got much support either.
At some point you are going to have to leverage your tech savvy into something sustainable that presses forward with reform rather than constantly fighting a rear guard retreat against what looks more and more like the inevitable.
Then they should not be able to simply reference them. Obviously, regulations need to be openly available. There is no sense having laws no one is allowed to read.
For once, it seems a reactionary self-important artist is getting exactly what he wants - a growing lack of relevance.
I like Calvin and Hobbes as well, but Mr. Watterson fails to recognize that when art goes out into the world, it becomes part of the larger community, and to attempt to shut that down is to kill the interactions that eventually grow to make a body of work transcendent - the kind of work that bears repeated viewing, and stands the test of time.

Life is Good. When I was a kid, my folks took me on camping trips to many National Parks. I loved the natural beauty and adventure of camping. When our car exited the tunnel and Yosemite Valley exploded into view, I was absolutely stunned breathless with awe. I was only a young kid and that inspiration was an utterly new and profound experience for me, like falling in love for the first time.
I resolved to find a way to live in Yosemite forever. I even majored in Environmental Planning and Management at UC Davis for a few years, hoping to become a naturalist. I moved to Yosemite in 1979 and for 25 years I have left only briefly to complete school and travel. For many years I was a manager for the Concessionaire. That job was downsized after the 1997 floods cut my employers revenue.
Now Im free. I photograph beauty, write, climb, and freelance at fun. Im grateful for the support of the folks who like what I do.
Everything has beauty. The art of photography is seeing beauty and capturing that beauty to share it. Im happy to provide secure online ordering for prints of all sizes. I hope that my pictures help you return in spirit to nature, evoking your memory of its beauty.

Beetlejuice(1988)In the surreal, wonderfully cartoon-like comedy Beetlejuice, a childless couple, Barbara and Adam, move to the country only to be killed in a car accident while passing over a quaint covered bridge. Their ghosts return to their beloved Victorian home, and find the Handbook for the Recently Deceased, which not only lets them know they're dead, but comes in handy when they learn that they can continue to live in their house, even though a new familyfrom the land of the livingis moving in. The new owners, fresh from the city, are quite a strange group themselves, and include the overpowering hipster mom Delia, her pompous SoHo interior designer Otho, her meek husband Charles, and their morose teenage daughter Lydia, who befriends the ghostly couple. Though the threesome attempt to scare Delia from ruining the house with redecoration and her unpleasant personality, their attempts fail. As a last resort, they call upon the services of the demented, terrifying, but hilarious "bioexorcist," "Beetlejuice". For more about Beetlejuice and the Beetlejuice Blu-ray release, see Beetlejuice Blu-ray Review published by Sir Terrence on November 12, 2008 where this Blu-ray release scored 4.5 out of 5. Director: Tim Burton Writers: Larry Wilson, Michael McDowell, Warren Skaaren Starring: Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Michael Keaton, Jeffrey Jones, Catherine O'Hara, Winona Ryder » See full cast & crew Beetlejuice Blu-ray, Video QualityThis freshly minted 1080p/VC-1 encode framed at an accurate 1:85:1 aspect ratio is just beautiful to look at. It is one of the most natural looking films that I have seen come to Bluray disc in while. The source is pristine, without a hint of physical blemishes such as scratches, dirt and pops. Blacks are very inky, and in some places crushed and muddy, but only in some of the darker scenes. Contrast can sometimes look a little crushed on the bottom end, but it is not that distracting. The color palette is very well saturated, with red being particularly striking. Grain structure is very fine, well managed, and nicely preserved with no signs of compression noise, DNR, or artifacts. Detail and fine details are quite good; sharpness is very good with no presence of edge enhancement. There are some shots that look a little soft, but I attribute that to the source being film based. This twenty year old film looks dang good for its age! Good job Warner. Beetlejuice Blu-ray, Audio QualityThere are a lot of tracks to choose from on this release. There is a very good 5.1 Dolby TrueHD track at 16/48khz, a 5.1 English Dolby Digital track at 640kbps, a French Dolby Digital track at 192kbps, a Spanish, Latin, German, Italian, and Japanese stereo Dolby Digital tracks. Subtitles are designated in 14 different languages. Naturally I chose the Dolby TrueHD track as it is superior to the rest. This mix is very front centric, but very spacious sounding with good envelopment. The surrounds are used to open up the mix a bit, but are largely silent throughout the movie. Bass is mainly handled by the main front speakers, but there is occasional LFE usage to support the bass in the front channels. Dialog is always clear and never buried in the overall mix. Danny Elfman's film score is well recorded, so much so you can tell the orchestra is smaller than what is commonly used in today scores. I have always like the creative way he uses instrument textures and nice melodic running instrumental lines in his music, and they come forth well here. The Dolby digital track at 640kbps has a truncated sound field in comparison to the lossless track. It sounds flat, not as dynamic, and muddy in comparison. This soundtrack does a good job of enhancing the storyline without becoming the focus of the film. Beetlejuice: Other Editions

Feels like home
July 9, 2014
Beautiful location. Home was very comfy for four adults. Very private location offered the break from our hectic lives that we really needed. The kitchen was stocked with all the utensils, cookware, and appliances necessary to cook. The beds were very comfortable. I did bring my own pillows, but I usually do anywhere I go. While we were trying to escape civilization, we were glad to have wifi in the cabin since AT&T cell phone signal is null in that area. The only negative thing I could say is that there is a rooster that lives on the lake and if you are a light sleeper like me, you can expect a wake up call around 7am. It is far enough that the rest of the occupants didn't hear it in the morning, but it woke me up the days I was there. This shouldn't discourage anyone from renting this wonderful cabin as it really isn't loud. I look forward to renting this cabin again.
