I'm a complete novice, but my project is simple, built in Sketchup and rendered in WSF. I'm really pleased with the result, even if design decisions of my own making mean the final product doesn't work too well. Oh well, I have MKII already designed and uploaded, with ideas for a MKIII that reduces the amount of material (if I can wrangle Sketchup to do what I want...)

Very useful. Looks like despite being a novice, you're figuring it all out pretty quick ]]> ana 2012-02-06T17:42:14-00:00 Re: Hi everyone http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=44073&th=8144#msg_44073 I just posted the latest iteration of the design over on the Work in progress forum with a couple of questions, but so far I'm enjoying the freedom that Shapeways offers. I'm looking at learning some other tools (eg. Blender) to get away from some of the restrictions of Sketchup. The quality of the designs from other Shapeways members is outstanding and some of my ideas cannot be accomplished with my current software.]]> mygadgetlife 2012-02-15T12:59:30-00:00

New furniture store boosts hospice
12:51pm Friday 5th September 2014 in News By Mark Tallentire, Reporter (Durham)

A HOSPICE will open a new furniture shop next week.
The St Cuthbert's Hospice outlet will sell donated furniture, homeware and small electrical items and books.
The facility, on Meadowfield Industrial Estate, near Durham City, will be officially opened by hospice chief executive Paul Marriott on Wednesday (September 10).
The move has led to the Durham hospice creating two new jobs and more volunteering opportunities.
Mr Marriott said: "We hope by opening this facility we are able to offer to our local community a service they can really benefit from.
"All the monies we raise through the outlet, as with our other seven shops across the county, goes toward maintaining services in our inpatient and day hospice.
"The money will also be used to help our bereavement, dementia and other services for local people."
Bill Brierley, retail supervisor at the new store, said: "We are all very excited to be part of this.
"We are looking for volunteers and will always need people's donations.
"The goods are very, very reasonably priced and you won't find anything that is worn out or dirty."
The store will be open 9.30am to 4.30pm Monday to Saturday. For more information, call 0191-378-4720.
The hospice provides free care for people with life-limiting illnesses across north Durham.
It receives some NHS funding but must raise a further £1.3m a year.

The Latest News
- Join the Ladybug Lovely
- Ladybugs are great at protecting our gardens from pests and pesticides. The same can be said for NCAP members who join the Ladybug Lovely monthly giving program.
- Chlorphyrifos and Children
- Most of you have probably eaten a Washington-grown apple. But you probably didn't know that most of these apple trees are literally blasted with insecticides that are harmful to the nervous system (including the brain!). One of these insecticides – a well-studied chemical called chlorpyrifos – was banned for use in homes because of its high risk to children. But there are still children who are being exposed to this chemical - the children in farming communities where your apples and other foods are grown
- Getting Community Mosquito Control Programs to Adopt the Best Policies
- West Nile virus is a fact of life in most parts of the United States. The risks of infection can be serious, although these risks are much lower than influenza and food-borne diseases. Community mosquito control programs aim to reduce the risks of West Nile virus.
- Invasive Garden and Landscape Plants
- Invasive plants have become a problem nationwide. In natural areas, these non-native plants can sometimes take over and out-compete native plants. When native plants suffer, so do the animals that depend on them for food and habitat.
- Health Effects of Chronic Pesticide Exposure
- Scientific evidence showing that pesticides are harmful to our health is increasing rapidly. Recently, a review by government researchers looked at links between pesticide exposure and both cancer and nervous system problems and found yet more of this evidence. The review "clearly suggests that at current exposures pesticides adversely affect human health." The review also suggests that the way pesticides are currently regulated, based mostly on studies of laboratory animals, is problematic: the health effects found in the review show that "either animal testing alone or its interpretation in public policy is not sufficient to protect human health.

I worked at CVS Health part-time (More than 3 years)
The managers at my particular location were pretty laid back, the district manager was also very nice. Requesting time off was very easy and it was easy to get hours

I have been working at CVS Health full-time (More than a year)Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookDisapproves of CEODoesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookDisapproves of CEO
-Co-workers and regular customers here are amazing
-Job security is nice. Would have to mess up big time. (Not making all "patient outreach calls" however, is considered messing up big time - even if there's 120+)
-Job experience is nice as well. As a future pharmacist-to-be, I'm racking up experience and have seen the good, the bad, and the plain evil of corporate run pharmacies.
-Hours cut in the middle of week to meet budget and upper level management surprised when we're not doing so well. Can be very strict on hours (I've been "written up" for going over 5 minutes one week)
-Requires a lot of dedication with no real benefits for the dedication
-No competitive pay, and both wage and raises are static. No raise or compensation for certification. No assistance in maintaining CPhT status, or renewal of license. You pay to work for them.
-In both stores I've worked, there is "full service" (Pick up & Drop Off) in 2 drive-thru lanes - with 1 employee working them both and only 1 register. New "We-Care" system in second lane requires multiple back and forth trips of the tube while Lane 1 can be done much easier
-Little respect for employees from upper management. The customer is always right, even if its their fault. (ex: phoned in wrong medicine to be refilled)
-Numbers,numbers,numbers. On weekends, patients must be called to prompt them to fill old prescriptions. Every prescription is timed, and must be filled before said time or it counts against your execution "score." From when a patient calls the store to when you answer is timed. When a patient pulls into the drive-thru to when an employee pushes the button on the phone (not when the employee is actually at the window, you must still push the button if you are right there anyways) is timed.
-Customer-based "scoring." Customers are constantly given the opportunity to "score" how well your performance was in helping them. This is a good idea. However, CVS has RickyBobby syndrome. When you are scored from 0-5 (0 bad, 5 excellent), anything from 0-4 gets defaulted to a 0. ONLY 5's count. If you ain't first, you're last.
-High stress environment. Even when customers are nice, it is stressful with 10+ people waiting around the pharmacy, some watching your every move. Out of our 5 full time techs, 3 have a prescription for a nerve pill.
-In my state, we often work illegally. The state board of pharmacy states the pharmacist/tech ratio should be 1:2. The worst I've ever seen is 7 techs to 1 pharmacist.
Advice to Management
After seeing some of the numbers, I know more hours should be available. Spend less on advertising "15 minutes or less" and give stores more hours to actually just do it. No reason why a store making $76,000 profit in 1 month should have long wait times and low ratings due to skeleton staffing.

That's something broadcasters can now find out from a technology developed by aMap, a viewership ratings agency.
The device, Customised Connectivity Tracker, once installed on select televisions in a cable network, periodically culls data in the form of images from various channel frequencies and the captured data is transferred to the server through GSM line.
So say, if prior to an ODI match, the cable operator chucks out a channel from the prime band to accommodate a sports channel, and the CC tracker pulls out data from that cable network proving the same, the broadcaster at the receiving end is informed, with the CC track data as evidence
aMap has already begun testing the product in several markets.
With the proliferation of broadcasters and channels across the country amid limited bandwidth availability, connectivity on the right band is of paramount importance for any channel not only in the launch phase but on a continuous basis to reach larger audiences.
Amit Varma, chief executive officer of aMap, said in addition to monitoring connectivity of channels pan-India, with CC Track, broadcasters can leverage distribution as a strategic tool and manage their carriage fees in a more efficient manner.

A few weeks ago we blogged about consolidated cases pending in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, in which the petitioners were seeking writs of mandamus or prohibition, to stop the NLRB from issuing further decisions unless and until it had a properly appointed quorum. The cases were scheduled for oral argument in September.
Now, in view of the Senate's confirmation of a new five member Board, the cases have become moot. The petitioners in the cases moved to voluntarily dismiss them, and the Court granted the motion without further comment. This brings to a close one of the many legal skirmishes that have swirled around the President's recess appointments to the NLRB on January 4, 2012.
It remains to be seen, of course, what will happen to numerous other matters in which issues have been raised about the actions and authority of various NLRB officials, such as regional directors and administrative law judges, who acted on behalf of or were appointed by the old Board. And, of course, the Supreme Court will have the final word on the broader recess appointment issue when it decides the Noel Canning case next year. Both those topics were discussed by us here.

The Supreme Court will hear in open court the Centre's petition seeking review of its judgment that only sitting or retired Chief Justices of High Courts or a Supreme Court judge can head Information Commissions.
After the September verdict, many commissions could not function properly and vacancies could not be filled, and as the court directions could not be implemented, the Centre filed the review petition. A Bench of Justices A.K.Patnaik and Swatantar Kumar, at a brief sitting in the chamber on Tuesday, decided to hear the matter in open court considering its ramifications.
In its petition, the Centre said: "It is well settled that the court cannot issue directions to the Legislature to amend an Act or Rule. It is for Parliament to amend an Act or Rule." The court's directions had the potential to create disarray in the functioning of the Central and State Information Commissions, and amounted to a clear error apparent on the face of the record, being in absolute disregard of the provisions of the Act, the petition said.
The RTI Act "is being used as a tool to acquire information by the common man without any legal formalities. The mechanism in place has worked effectively and expeditiously. If the status of the commissions were altered to that of a judicial tribunal and a court attached system of justice, this would only result in a delay at various levels, especially at the second appellate level.
Unnecessary steps, such as engaging an advocate and other legal formalities associated with court procedures will be added, causing unnecessary delay. If it takes 3-4 years for disposal of an appeal, the entire mechanism would stop working effectively and the citizens would not be able to get the desired information within time."

Ex-Dewhurst adviser sentenced to more than 7 years in prison for campaign embezzlement
AUSTIN – The former campaign manager and long-time political adviser to former Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst was sentenced on Friday to more than 7 years in prison for embezzling millions of dollars from his boss's campaign accounts.
Kenneth "Buddy" Barfield was also ordered by a federal judge to pay $2.5 million in restitution, after pleading guilty in October to three charges, including wire fraud, falsified tax returns and theft of campaign funds from a candidate for federal office.
U.S. District Judge Sam Sparks said that the 87-month sentence was a "little bit low," as compared to others he's given out for similar offenses. But taking into account Barfield's cooperation in the case, the judge said he hoped the sentence would be a deterrent.
"The seriousness of the offense I don't think can be overstated," Sparks said.
Barfield, who faced a maximum sentence of 28 years in prison, expressed contrition and told the court he was "ready to take the full punishment," according to the San Antonio Express-News. He and his attorney declined to comment as they left the courtroom.
The political consultant had previously admitted in a plea agreement that he intentionally defrauded Dewhurst's campaign accounts for "his own benefit." That included using the funds to pay for his home mortgage, school tuition for his kids and other living expenses.
Barfield had said he bilked nearly $1.8 million over a five-year period from Dewhurst's campaign accounts. But campaign officials charged that the adviser actually stole more than $5 million from various funds over an even longer period of time.
Dewhurst couldn't immediately be reached for comment on Friday.
Campaign officials said Barfield hid his theft by falsifying bank deposit slips, vendor invoices and finance reports to make it appear that the accounts had more cash on hand than they really did.
At the same time, Barfield and his side businesses, such as Alexander Group Consulting, were paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for things that they never actually did. Those services included consulting fees, polling and political mailings.
Sparks, the federal judge, said Barfield's actions "could well have impacted elections."

US home prices rise at slower pace in September
Wednesday - 11/6/2013, 4:50am EST
AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A measure of U.S. home prices rose only slightly in September from August, a sign that prices are leveling off after big gains earlier this year.
Real estate provider CoreLogic said Tuesday that home prices increased 0.2 percent in September from the previous month. That's sharply lower than the 0.9 percent month-over-month gain in August and well below the 1.8 percent increase in July.
Prices still rose 12 percent in September compared with a year ago.
Higher mortgage rates and steady price increases began to slow home sales in September. As a result, price gains have cooled off.
Mortgage rates are still very low. And the average rate on a 30-year fixed loan has fallen to 4.1 percent in the past month, down from a two-year high of nearly 4.6 percent over the summer.
"This deceleration is natural and should help keep market fundamentals in balance over the longer-term," said Anand Nallathambi, president and CEO of CoreLogic.
Many economists expect the housing recovery to continue, though with slower gains in sales. Still, the spike in rates over the summer has weighed on the market. A measure of signed contracts to buy homes fell 5.6 percent in September to the lowest level in nine months.
There is generally a one- to two-month lag between a signed contract and a completed sale. The sharp drop in September suggests final sales will decline in the coming months.
The annual price gains are widespread, according to CoreLogic. Prices rose in all 50 states and in all 100 of the largest U.S. metro areas.
Price jumped 25.3 percent in Nevada from a year earlier, the most in any state. California (22.5 percent), Arizona (14.6 percent), Georgia (14.4 percent) and Michigan (13.9 percent) reported the next highest gains.
Home prices are still about 17 percent below the peak reached in April 2006, according to CoreLogic.

To add event to calendar, click the desired date below.
The new Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism, by Robert Buswell (UCLA) and Donald Lopez (University of Michigan), in 1,304 pages, 1.2 million words (and 5.5 pounds), is the most authoritative and wide-ranging reference of its kind ever produced in English. Its more than 5,000 alphabetical entries explain the key terms, doctrines, practices, texts, authors, deities, and schools of Buddhism across six major canonical languages and traditions: Sanskrit, Pali, Tibetan, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean; the dictionary also includes selected terms from Burmese, Khmer, Lao, Mongolian, Newar, Sinhalese, Thai, and Vietnamese. The entries take an encyclopedic approach to the religion, with short essays that explore the extended meaning and significance of the terms in greater depth than a conventional dictionary. At this book launch event, co-author Robert Buswell will be present to discuss new and emerging trends in Buddhist Studies that are covered the dictionary. He will also present a Top Ten list of misconceptions about Buddhism, and will examine how these issues are addressed in the dictionary.
Robert E. Buswell Jr. holds the Irving and Jean Stone Endowed Chair in Humanities at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), where he is also Distinguished Professor of Buddhist Studies and founding director of the Center for Buddhist Studies. He is the editor-in-chief of the two-volume Encyclopedia of Buddhism (MacMillan Reference, 2004) and the author of Cultivating Original Enlightenment (University of Hawaii Press, 2007) and The Zen Monastic Experience (Princeton, 1992), among many other books.

I know that Thai fighters are very adept regarding stand-up grappling. I realize they are not Judokas, but they have to worry about sweeps and throws. However, they do not have to worry about single and double leg take downs. I don't know if the need to sprawl would force them to alter their stance.
When the Thai Boxers switch to Western Boxing; the kicks, knees, elbows, and clinch all disappear. This forces them to adjust their stance to be ready to do nothing but punch. Imagine facing Mike Tyson in a Muay Thai stance, and not being allowed to kick. Well, since most of these guys we're mentioning are smaller, imagine Chavez or Pacquiao. I still can't help but wonder if Fenech was such a problem for Payakaroon because of the fact there is no way a guy his size could get inside on him like that if kicks, and Muay Thai clinch work, were allowed.
Since Muay Thai fighters could essentially use their entire offence, rules vary with elbows in certain orgs, I wonder if they would have to change their stance at all. I'm always screaming for more jabs, but I come from a western boxing background. If I were more familiar with a Muay Thai skill set, I wonder if I would be screaming for something else.
boranbkk, what do you scream at fighters for not doing when watching mma?
Good post and thanks again for the welcome.
I like the mix here in the MMA forum and I love the fact a poster can go from classic to techincal to contemporary all in one thread. It's a small group of regulars in here and most have something to say which I really like. People may disagree but I think there is a good mix of knowledge in here I've learnt alot about the current MMA scene.
When I watch MMA my biggest two gripes are the genreal lack of quality in the striking department and how so many of the fighters panic underfire. Many many many of the guys don't seem to know how to take or check strikes and go into panic stations and crumble. However, that being said it's understandable as alot of the guys come form grappling/wrestling backgrounds. It also seems many of the guys who start thier careers as pure MMA guys without any grounding in one particular art and cross train form the start have a blown up sense of thier striking capabilities or maybe they've all just been listening to Joe Rogan's commentary on the "high standared of their MT striking" .
What might surprise you when I watch MMA, it's the groundwork that I really enjoy watching. This has surprised me to
. I struggle to take alot of the striking seriously, but as whose into pure effective forms of fighting it's the grappling that seems to be of a high standard so I enjoy watching it, in a similar way to how I enjoy watching the Judo at the Olympics. It seems there's an imbalance of quality between ground work and striking with the ground work being right up there and the stiking... welll you know. However, from a fight or training point of view I'll always be an Muay Thai purist who likes his boxing and would never consider training in any form grappling or wrestling, just dosen't appeal.

And without 'em he was ****ed.
Pintor was horribly shot so Samart's best boxing showing is against the tough and hard punching but basic Mexican aggressor Juan 'Kid' Meza. Awesome display of movement, defence (seriously Samart rivals Sweet Pea himself in the last round) and accuracy. Not a great fight by any means,
but until someone makes me hit the stratosphere upon proving that footage of Samart's debut against Vorasingh exists,
I'll go with that one.
Best performance by a convert in boxing is by Khaokor Galaxy against Sung-Kil Moon IMO. That man displays both facets of Thai footwork against an iron chinned gravel fisted legend. And beats the living **** out of him.
Great post again Flea, always on the money.
You've thrown down the guantlet there with the Samart Vorasingh footage. I'll have to see what I can try to dig up.

Fun game
It's a fun game with lots of control. I would have personally liked it if the "people" in the game advanced technologically themselves along with your God powers doing so making it more "real". Not quickly but having them advance them do so would make it more fun, for me.

Although his connections are from New York and currently based in
South Florida, Always in Tiz will continue down the path toward the
April 13 Arkansas Derby with a start in the $600,000 Rebel Stakes (G2)
March 16. The colt will be making his third start in Hot Springs after
finishing a troubled third in the Smarty Jones Jan. 21 and fifth in the
sloppy Southwest Stakes (G3) Feb. 18.
The Tiznow colt returned to Florida after the Smarty Jones, but has
remained at Oaklawn since the Southwest and had been treated for a lung
infection discovered after that race. Now healthy, Always in a Tiz began
his serious preparations for the Rebel by working five furlongs in 1:02
Friday with jockey Robby Albarado on board.
"I spoke to (assistant) Carl (Alsop) and to Robby (Albarado) and they
both say everything went very well," said trainer Dominick Schettino.
"He scoped clean and the lung infection appears to be completely cleared
up. I worked him in blinkers and I'm hoping to send him one more time –
a half-mile – in blinkers next week to get him ready. We are also
hoping it doesn't rain again, but what can you do?"
Always in a Tiz was accompanied on his second trip to Arkansas by the
3-year-old filly Flash Forward, who will start in the $150,000 Honeybee
Stakes (G3) March 9. The impressive winner of an optional allowance
race at Gulfstream Park Jan. 3 posted her third work at Oaklawn Feb. 28,
breezing five furlongs in 1:02 3/5 over a fast track.
"The filly is training very well," said Schettino. "Robby was happy
with her. The time before last I worked her in company and yesterday she
went by herself. The Honeybee is the target."
Texas Bling Remains on Target for Rebel
Texas Bling, the upset winner of the Springboard Mile at Remington
Park last December and second in the Smarty Jones, continues to show
that his ninth-place finish in the Southwest Stakes was mostly due to
the very sloppy racetrack that day. Saturday he posted his second work
since that race, a five-furlong breeze in 1:01.
"It was another excellent work," said trainer Danele Durham. "It was
just a maintenance work. I wanted him to do a little more last week
because he got nothing out of the (Southwest). We'll probably come back
next Saturday for another work before the Rebel."
"He went fast," added jockey Cliff Berry. "A horse broke off in front
of him and he took off after him, so it was probably faster than Danele
wanted, but he's good."

Today's edition of the Chapel Hill News:
The Varsity Theatre celebrates its first year after reopening one of Chapel Hill's greatest landmarks.
More on this story:
Coming Soon: The IMAX Experience at Southpoint Mall Cinemas
For the record: All 4 of the Beatles films also played at the Carolina as well. From the record-breaking
"A Hard Day's Night", to the other Beatles movies like "HELP!", "Yellow Submarine",and "Let It Be" played to capacity crowds. They played first-run at the Carolina,because it was the outlet for a lot of films released under United Artists. And just like the Bond pics were huge boxoffice,of course UA re-released these Beatles films as double bills(one had a double feature of "A Hard Day's Night",and "HELP!" that was in re-release)which were huge boxoffice draws themselves.
The Raleigh Road Drive-In must have been located off U.S. 401 North
The opening attraction for the June 24, 1977 opening of the Cardinal I & II was the WWII action flick
"A Bridge Too Far" with Sean Connery, Robert Redford and Hardy Kruger(Screen 2).
Screen 1,the original auditorium had the general release of "For The Love of Benji" on June 24, 1977.
You're correct. At one time,there were at least seven moviehouses located in the vicinity of Downtown Durham which were: The Uptown, The Carolina, The Rialto, also
The Center, The Wonderland, The Arcade,and The Criterion. By 1965,three of its movie theatres Downtown Durham would suddenly vanished forever.
The Center(East Chapel Hill Street)closed its doors at moved to the suburbs by November,1966(to Lakewood Shopping Center)and was demolished to make way for the Mutual Savings and Loan building,leaving the Rialto,the Carolina,and the Criterion as the only three operating moviehouses located Downtown. By 1966,the Uptown,the Wonderland,and the Arcade were gone. By 1970,the Rialto closed its doors forever,leaving the Criterion and the Carolina as the only two operating movie theatres Downtown. All that was about to change by 1975 when the Criterion Theatre closed,leaving the Carolina Theatre as the last remaining place to see a movie in Downtown Durham(which is to this day still operational). All of the adult films and "B" movie pictures by 1975 either ended up playing at the Carolina Theatre downtown or you had to go to the northern edge of the city to see them(The Riverview Cinema in North Durham,which is posted on this cinema treasures site),and other movie houses in Durham.
What was the name of the other drive-in theatre located in Wadesboro? Was this drive-in theatre located on the other side of Highway 74 or on Highway 52? Just asking since I'm from Anson County.
What street was the Wadesboro Cinema located on?
What year did this theatre opened? Or did this cinema opened before the Ansonia did?
**I know exactly where the Ansonia Theatre is on Rutherfordton Street in Downtown Wadesboro,and according to your vital research and information,this cinema must have opened before the Ansonia did.
United Artists re-released WEST SIDE STORY numerous times during the early 1970's. The last time it was shown theatrically in re-released was back in either 1972, 1973 or 1975.
Other larger Southern cities like Atlanta, Nashville, Richmond,
Memphis, Raleigh, didn't get the film until either December of 1956 or early-to-mid 1957 during its initial general release.
Raleigh and Charlotte were not roadshow enagements.
Raleigh and Charlotte did not have this film shown in 70MM.
OKLAHOMA! when it premiered in the South,was shown only in selected cities in selected markets. Not of which ever played in the Carolinas.
The film's 35MM general release didn't come until November of 1956.
Raleigh and Charlotte only got the general release dates,but the film didn't come that way until either December of 1956 or early-to-mid 1957. Other cities within the Carolinas didn't get the film until either 1957 or 1958,and some cities didn't get the film until 1960.
During its 35MM general release in the Carolinas,Charlotte got it first and then Raleigh. Other cities within the Carolinas didn't get it until the summer of 1957.
The Long Leaf Mall Cinema 1 & 2 opened in 1973 by Stewart and Everett Theatres. It was the second twin theatre to opened in the greater Wilmington area since the Oleander Cinemas 1 & 2 opened in 1970. During the 1970's and part of the 1980's,Charlotte-based Stewart and Everett Theatres operated all of the movie theatres in Wilmington including its Downtown theatres(Bailey Theatre,Colony Theatre),and drive-ins(Highway 17 North,and the Skyview Drive-Ins)
College Road Cinemas opened on June 3, 1983 as a six-screen cinema owned and operated by Fairlane-Litchfeld Corporation. By the mid-to-late 1980's United Artists Theatres took over the operations until its closing in the mid-1990's.
It was demolished on October 26, 2010.
Just in time for its 50th Anniversary in 2011. One of the top ten greatest movie musicals ever made and was a huge boxoffice hit when it came out back in 1961.
Question: Two of its original stars Russ Tamblyn and Rita Moreno are still around? I know Natalie Wood is no longer with us.
Rumor has it that there will be another installment of ALIEN…this time around with Swedish newcomer Noomi Rapace in the title role. You know from the "Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest"?
Stadium seating really puts a theatre to an advantage. Here in North Carolina,the seating in some of these auditoriums is horrible.
There used to be a Baldwin Hills Theatre or The Crenshaw Theatre…is that still there????
I'll take films in 70MM over 3-D anyday.
Mike Rogers:
Speaking of certain movies or theatre chains that got them,in Durham the only ABC/Plitt movie chain(the Lakewood Center)was the outlet for Warner Bors.,Columbia, and Twentieth Century-Fox.
The Carolina Theatre(Downtown Durham)was the outlet for not only United Artists films,but was also the outlet for Universal too. A lot of the James Bond 007 films(1962-1974)played here.
The Yorktowne Theatre(Durham-Chapel Hill Blvd.)was the outlet for a lot of films released through Paramount Pictures and sometimes catered to independent films.
The Northgate Theatre(Club Boulevard)was the outlet for Disney and MGM.
The Riverview Cinema(Roxboro Road)catered to blaxploitation, adult, and kung-fu flicks. All theatres mentioned are on this cinema treasures site.
The Northgate Cinema 10 is not a expansion/renovation of the former Northgate Twin Theatres. The listing is on the cinema treasures site under "Phoenix Cinema 10" which will be updated. Due to my extensive knowledge of Durham movie theatres,the original Northgate Theatre was on the opposite end of the shopping center,next door to Sears facing Guess Road and Club Boulevard. The Northgate Cinema 10,which opened in 2005 is located on the opposite section of the mall. The cinema opened in what was the former Belk Leggett Department Store,former Hecht's Department Store and former Thalhimers. The Northgate Cinema 10 is owned and operated by East Coast Entertainment Corporation and I heard that Regal Cinemas is set to take over operations which will be the first-ever Regal movie plex in Durham.
Located off Capital Boulevard near the Raleigh Beltline in the Brentwood section of the city.
Played First-Run at PARK TERRACE THEATRE in Charlotte,NC. Was shown in the largest auditorium(seating capacity of 700)and in 70MM-Six Track Dobly Stereo. The only North Carolina theatre that show it in 70MM during its original enagement.
Other cities wouldn't get the film until June or July of 1979 that was either presented in 35MM and in Dobly Stereo….
Terrace Theatres 1 & 2
Village Plaza Theatres I-II-III [DOBLY STEREO]
Cardinal Theatres 1 & 2
Lakewood Center Theatres 1 & 2 [DOBLY STEREO]
Bordeaux Theatres 1 & 2
Oleander Cinemas 1 & 2
North Carolina:
Charlotte-Carolina Theatre
Other cities didn't get the film until 1956 or early to mid-1957
I have seen "The Alamo" in its original format years ago when it was re-released in its original 192 minute-run in full 70MM print.
I love seeing older classics film being restored and re-released!
Not only "The Alamo",but seeing a lot of films released from 1960 have been restored and re-released in theatres including "Spartacus"
"Inherit The Wind","Exodus","Psycho!",and many,many more.
We're coming toward the 50th Anniversary of "Breakfast At Tiffany's"
The film is still being showed throughout the country.
Good Afternoon,
I don't know if there is a Cinema Preservation Group here in the greater Raleigh-Durham area,but I done some research on several movie houses in the Triangle area. I wanted to asked you if you need assistance. email me at
About "The Tingler"………
William Castle was a genius for every gimmick he pulled to lure audiences in and scared the smoke out of them. The same gimmicks were implied to a lot of films from William Castle.
"13 Ghosts"(also directed by Castle)had a gimmick to it as well…since the film was in black and white with the spirits shown in full color,something never heard of in 1960 when this film was released.

If you want to have Chinese in Tokyo, this is definately one of the tops. Its slightly pricy but nothing compared to what you pay in NY or London. And it even has a Michelin 1 star! Another good one is the Blue China in the Conrad Hotel, but I like them both.

There is little parking on the East Campus, and the campus safety officers hold their job in high esteem by holding drivers accountable to the rules with parking tickets and rule enforcement.
The parking on campus is herendous. Commuters can only park on the east campus, but there are not enough spaces for faculty or students. Usually its a half hour of circling before you can even find a spot which is usually a faculty spot.
They give out more permits than their are spots. Therefore it is always very difficult to find an available parking spot. And they cost $100+ per semester.
I am currently enrolled in Azusa Pacific University Online Program. Parking is at my house which is perfect

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. OriginCookee was created by Myers from his cookbook of spells, made from scratch by the gluttons baker to be his object of love she was formed of batter and brought to life once emerging from her "birth oven," adorned with peppermint eyes and clothed her with strawberry and vanilla icing.Cookee shortly after her creation as Myers love objectDuring the first few hours of her life the baker witch repeatedly frosted her and then cleaned her until her has satisfied his appetite and provided the perfect outfit for her.The baker witch promised to teach his beautiful cookie creation about love and she was enchanted with him, but in a short time the baker became neglectful, gluttons and Cookee became jealous of the other cookies her ate. Watching Myers, sitting in front of the television watching zombie movies, consuming bag after bag of cookies and saying how much he loved them.The pink haired Cookee developed a warped sense of what it was to display affection. Believing it was her purpose to show her creator love she did so in the only way she had seen… by consuming the object of her devotion. Sinking her teeth into Myers flesh, proud to show him how much she had learned about love, she devoured his entire body leaving only a few crumbs as streams of his blood flowed from her mouth down her body.He was her first 'love" a word that became synonymous with consuming flesh for her.CreationCookee was created by Jim Balent for the Tarot Halloween issue #16 in September of 2002.Character EvolutionNight of the Ginger-Dead MenAfter ensnaring Tarot and her sister Raven Hex in chocolate and and tying up three tick-or-treaters Cookee starts to decorates her two paralyzed witches with frosting preparing to bake them and "love" them, the way she was taught by her creator. As the two witches inch closer and closer to the bakers over one of the trick-or-treaters, 13 year old Steven Gurkwin, who is dresses as Garry Hotter, a young wizard in a scarf and round glasses (obviously a Harry Potter spoof) slips his bonds and bravely tries to free the witches.Cookee explains the binding spell over the house has made the young wizards magic useless but her still persists with his wand, getting closer and closer until he pokes out one of Cookee's peppermint eyes. As she runs away Steven retrieves the Black Rose Sword and prepares to cut the witches free.Returning with her army of gingerbread zombies, the one eyes cookee commands the undead deserts to devour the witches but leave the young wizard for her. Steven places himself between the attacking zombies and his witches in order to protect them but it's Tarot and Raven who must slash and kick thru the gingerbread attackers.While the witches are busy fighting Cookee picks up the boy;"You hurt me, wizard my face is not pretty anymore. But I forgive you. And do you know why…? Because I love you!"She brings the boy towards her mouth but just then Tarot swings the Black Rose Sword slashes through her torso cutting her in two. Cookee falls to the floor dead.

Family Transitions in Early Adulthood
LSE ( May 2015)
These days the transition to adulthood seems to be particularly difficult. Youth unemployment, zero hours contracts, high housing costs, unpaid internships and increased tuition fees have created a challenging environment for young people. Two qualitative studies, undertaken by researchers from the Families and Children Research Group (Professor Jane Lewis, Professor Anne West, Dr Philip Noden and Dr Jonathan Roberts) at LSE and supported by the Leverhulme Trust, have investigated particular aspects of the transitions of early adulthood as they affect both parents and their young adult children. The first study has examined the support which parents provide to their children when they go away to university. The second has explored the increasingly common phenomenon of graduates who return to live with their parents after graduation. Key findings from the studies have been summarised in two research briefs:
- Family Transitions in Early Adulthood: Parental Support of University Students
- Family transitions in Early Adulthood: Coresidence of Young Graduates with their Parents
Social Rights and Human Welfare
Routledge (March 2015)
The idea of social rights has always played a central, but often contested, part in social policy. In his latest book, Professor Hartley Dean radically reframes our understanding of social rights as the articulation of human needs.
Taking an international perspective on rights-based approaches, the book looks at how social rights can be understood and critiqued in theory- discussing ideas around social citizenship, human need and human rights, collective responsibility and ethical imperatives. The book moves on to consider social rights in practice, providing a comparative examination of their global development, before looking more specifically at rights to livelihood, human services and housing, and at the ways in which these rights can be enforced. The final section re-evaluates prevailing theory and debates about rights-based approaches to poverty alleviation and outlines possible future directions.
Hartley Dean, is a Professor of Social Policy at LSE, where he teaches a Masters-level course on Social Rights and Human Welfare. He was formerly a welfare rights worker in Brixton, South London.
Government Paternalism: nanny state or helpful friend?
Princeton University Press (January 2015)
Should governments save people from themselves? Do governments have the right to influence citizens' behaviour related to smoking tobacco, eating too much, not saving enough, drinking alcohol, or taking marijuana - or does this create a nanny state, leading to infantilisation, demotivation, and breaches in individual autonomy? Looking at examples from both sides of the Atlantic and around the world, Government Paternalism examines the justifications for, and the prevalence of, government involvement and considers when intervention might or might not be acceptable. Building on developments in philosophy, behavioural economics, and psychology, Professor Julian Le Grand and Bill New explore the roles, boundaries, and responsibilities of the government and its citizens.

Brooklyn Shul Is Finalist for Renovation Funds
Beth Elohim joins the Guggenheim, the High Line, and the Apollo
At a ceremony with the mayor today, Park Slope's Congregation Beth Elohim was announced as one of 40 finalists—and the only Jewish institution among them—for a historic renovation grant contest sponsored by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and American Express, according to a release. While all institutions in the Partners for Preservation program will get some of the $3 million Amex has allocated (in most cities, the annual contest involves only $1 million, according to CBE's Rabbi Andy Bachman), how much each receives is tiered, based on how many votes each finalist gets between now and May 21.
Top prize? $250,000.
"They seem to have chosen a combination of prestigious citywide institutions—the Guggenheim, the High Line, Brooklyn Academy of Music, Brooklyn Public Library—and then they chose a handful of local organizations as well," Bachman (a Friend-of-The Scroll) said yesterday. "From what we understand, there are several things they like: that we're in our 150th year and we've been this long-running Brooklyn institution going through a period of intense revitalization; that we're not just a synagogue but are serving the broader community with social-action projects and an afterschool program that serves four public schools; and all our interfaith stuff with Old First Church." Bachman has more reflections on his blog.
As part of the program, each institution must have an open house. CBE's will be on the afternoon of Sunday, May 6, and will feature a new installation, "Jacob's Ladder by BanG," designed by the same architects responsible for the congregation's award-winning 2011 sukkah.
Bachman said that CBE, whose roof collapsed in 2009, could use extra funds for repairs. "$250,000 is the cost of replacing one stained-glass window," he noted.
Oh, and you can vote here. Once a day. Hint, hint.
