Beautiful converted palazzo, situated on upmarket shopping street. Easy walk into town along the pleasant avenue lined with pricey boutiques (although there is a good supermarket in easy reach on the right as you walk into town - about 5 mins from the hotel) with lots and lots to see. Our room was fabulous - separate sitting room and beautiful bathroom - we had a corner room overlooking the English Garden and the room was surprisingly quiet considering how busy the avenue is, thanks to the shutters. The room was spotless and all the furnishings were exactly as you would expect from the brand and in keeping with the building.
Breakfast was nice, fantastic coffee and local food as well as your standard breakfast table stuff. There was a rather strange selection of music playing, but it provided us with a bit of a chuckle to start the day with.
All the staff we had contact with were very polite and helpful - especially reception who gave us maps for town and helped with buses to go to Monreale (really worth the trip...but so was the centre of town - just beautiful architecture and some amazing churches) as well as restaurant recommendations and help with my phrase book italian.
The Prestia e Commande bus for the airport stops right opposite the hotel (English Garden stop), it will save you a bit of a walk from Politeama which is the major stop at this end of town.
We ate (twice! Unheard of for us....) at Le Volte, just a few streets up on the right (via Agrigento - 3 or 4 mins from the hotel). The food was just a perfect end to our tour around Sicily...easily the best food we ate on our trip.
All in all, a good experience at the hotel - enough consistency came with the brand, but there was enough individuality with a very sympathetic conversion of a stunning building to make it a lovely hotel and one I would recommend to anyone.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The Mercure Palermo Excelsior is located in the Liberty style area of the city and is surrounded by the English Garden, Villa Garibaldi, Villa Trabia, close to the shopping area. ... more less
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Hotels.com, Expedia, Booking.com, Travelocity, Cheap Tickets, ACCOR, Odigeo and Priceline so you can book your Mercure Palermo Excelsior reservations with confidence.

Grizzlies guard Xavier Henry getting healthy
Grizzlies hope last year's draft choice proves as valuable as missed first-round pick
Countless analysts graded the NBA draft and credited the Grizzlies with getting a steal with their late second-round pick.
Yet Kansas combo guard Josh Selby isn't the only player receiving high marks in FedExForum these days. Coming off an injury-plagued rookie season, Xavier Henry has created a buzz that's provided the franchise with as much optimism as the draft.
Henry, the 12th-overall pick in 2010, had been severely limited by right knee soreness since early March and couldn't contribute to the Grizzlies' historic playoff run.
But Henry's condition dramatically improved over the past month. The 6-6 shooting guard is on pace to play a significant role in the Grizzlies' backcourt rotation.
"He is, in a sense, our first-round pick," Griz general manager Chris Wallace said, suggesting that Henry's return would mean the franchise will add more than just the 49th pick next season.
Henry has routinely worked out in FedExForum, going through a month-long recovery plan prescribed by doctors who initially advised him to undergo surgery. Henry now is pain free.
He has progressed from riding a stationary bike to running in the pool to straight-line jogging on a treadmill to performing basketball exercises on the court.
Henry's daily routine now includes defensive slides, running, shooting and drills that test his lateral movement.
"I'm feeling more explosive than I was and I'm shooting it well," Henry said. "I'm really getting back into it."
At least two different doctors, including a specialist in New York, told Henry to have surgery.
He refused.
Henry wanted to test his knee before undergoing any surgical procedures and the 20-year-old's intuition proved correct. Henry took the court, jogged around and shot baskets.
He told the doctors he felt no ill effects.
"They just went off the basis that it wasn't getting any better," Henry said. "And that wasn't the truth because I hadn't been able to test it out to see if it had gotten any better. So I was able to tell them that it did progress some."
Henry said he completed the prescribed rehabilitation program last week but he won't play five-on-five for another two weeks. Although he is not expected to play in the Bluff City Classic, Henry said he'll continue rehabbing between Los Angeles and Oklahoma City if there is an NBA work stoppage.
"I'll give it a couple more weeks before I start going live with other players," Henry said. "I want to make sure I'm 100 percent back."
Henry played in only 38 games for the Griz last season. He shot 40 percent overall and 11.8 percent from 3-point range. Still, the coaching staff envisions Henry as a remedy for their outside shooting woes. That's why he was a lottery selection and eventually started 16 games last year.
"Just like Darrell (Arthur) was our first-round pick that came back to help us, Xavier can do the same," Griz coach Lionel Hollins said. "When a guy misses as much time as those two guys missed, they eventually bring something you haven't had before. Xavier has worked extremely hard. He's in the gym getting better and he's healthy. I feel good about it."
Hollins pointed out that Henry and Rudy Gay's recovery were reasons why the Griz were content to stand pat during the draft. Gay, lost in February to a season-ending shoulder injury, is on schedule for a complete recovery as the team's most skilled all-around player.
The organization still looks at Henry as having great upside.
"He can really help us when he comes back," Wallace said. "But we can't sit here and say we know we're getting 'X' amount of contribution. He's a wild card. If he's healthy and playing it means we're deeper and more versatile overall."
Henry said Memphis never really got to see his game.
"The injury kind of took away from the (rookie) experience," he said. "But I'm ready to get back in shape and start playing again. ... My family did a good job of keeping me level-headed. I just kept having faith that everything happens for a reason. I'll be back. I'll be back better and stronger."

Costume National Homme is rather divine. Something that I, a woman, could happily douse myself in.
When I first sprayed Costume National Homme I found it quite strong and nauseating. There was a little too much of everything all at once. It smelt like a thick, resinous forest with runny, liquified honey.
After this scent settles however the scent is intoxicating, in a good way. It's like a gourmand for men. Rich, syrupy, spicy and earthy. Full of sensuality and intrigue.
Costume National Homme seems to have a prominent tobacco note, which is further complimented by patchouli, herbs, cinnamon and vanilla. It's a masculine scent with a sweet and syrupy finish. In my opinion, Costume National Homme works well on both men and women alike.
I recommend this fragrance not only for its beautiful complexity and sexiness, but also for its undeniable lasting strength and strong sillage.

- Genre: Action Beat-'Em-Up

Extra lives
Start a two player game and play all the way to the end of level 1-1. Do not enter level 1-2 yet. Instead, turn on player two and use up all of his lives. Continue the game as player two, then repeat this process until all of player two's continues are used. Then, continue the game as player one. However, if all the pods on Level 1-1 were broken, you will have eight more lives and will have earned more through the points awarded while defeating player two. Two more lives can be obtained by going through level 1-1 again.

You can either pay tens of thousands of dollars to go globe-trotting to see for yourself what employees and workplaces are like in the 10 largest economies in the world. Or you can choose the monumentally cheaper alternative: Read the highlights of similarities and differences we've found in our global snapshot of workers.
Here are some of the highlights:
- Business formal is BIG in India. If you're visiting India (1 in 2), China (38 percent) or Japan (37 percent), you will be much more likely to bump into someone in a suit and tie than in, say, Italy (15 percent), Brazil (15 percent) or the U.S. (11 percent) where dress codes are more relaxed.
- WE work more than THEY do. That's right, U.S. workers clock in more hours (41-50) than their counterparts in the U.K. or China.
- Phones are NOT made for calling, apparently. Phone conversations are the least used form of communication for workers around the world. Shockingly…err, we mean interestingly…human beings still rely on face-to-face communications the most.
- Socializing with co-workers? No thanks! U.S. workers (41 percent) are among the least likely to mingle with their professional pals outside of work. Good thing we aren't in China (98 percent) or India (93 percent) where nearly everyone does!
- Living in Italy might be your dream, but wait till you retire. That's because nearly two-thirds of workers have only taken ONE week of vacation time or personal days in the last year. Workers in Japan, on the other extreme, let their hair down and put their feet up on 35-plus days.

Picture: Tim McGraw and Faith Hill The Academy of Country Music Awards , ACM awards, at MGM Grand Garden Arena - Arrivals Las Vegas, Nevada...
LATEST: Country star Tim Mcgraw was as surprised as his fans when he was feted by the ITALIAN AMERICAN FOUNDATION recently.
The singer, husband of Faith Hill, has joined the likes of noted Italian Americans like Al Pacino and John Travolta by picking up the honour, which was handed to him after the organisation learned his mother is Italian.
He says, "With a name like McGraw, you don't think about (getting such an honour) very often. But I do have strong Italian heritage, from my great-grandfather DONATO AUGUSTO D'AGOSTINO, my grandpop GIOVANNI GIUSEPPI D'AGOSTINO - and my mom teaching me to make pasta and spaghetti sauce, which is one of my specialities.
"I grew up in the South. In a lot of ways the Italian culture and the southern culture go hand in hand, because it's all about family, neighbours and community."29/10/2004 02:29

Register now for the 8th annual MobileBeat, July 13-14, where the best and brightest will be exploring the latest strategies and tactics in the mobile space. Apple has started pushing out its latest iOS update, version 6.1.2, to fix bugs — including serious battery drain — for people hooked up to Microsoft Exchange. To get the update, just go into your iPhone's Settings, tap General, and then tap Software Update. The update only says it "fixes an Exchange calendar bug that could result in increased network activity and reduced battery drain." Weirdly enough, the update does not fix a scary bug that makes it easy to get past any lockscreen. That said, the update almost certainly makes it impossible to jailbreak your phone using the popular evasi0n software. Apple with bandaid via Shutterstock VB's research team is studying mobile user acquisition... Chime in here, and we'll share the results.

BB Readers' DIY Costumes: Pirate Family (with adorable pirate baby!)
We're working Haunted Fox Hollow again, so our darling new baby girl is joining us in the pirate cove during the "light scares" hour. So far, she's done great. She's more giggles than Y'arrr, but we cheerfully tell the guests that she'll learn to swab the deck or she'll end up in the pirate's stew. When the little kids see that she isn't the least bit scared, it helps them get their courage back.

The present invention is an apparatus and method for presenting highly personal thoughts, sentiments, and engrams of a person in the form of a gift to a loved one. Feelings of an occasion or season are combined with a personal message through a representative embodiment of the season, for example, a Christmas ornament, having audio recording and image display devices therein. A simple photo transparency, such as a color slide, or other image storage device projects the donor's image onto a screen, either formed in a case of a predetermined theme, or onto a wall, thus allowing the donor to simply and easily incorporate his or her own image, and voice, in a personalized way.
1. An apparatus for presenting personal engrams comprising:
a case;
an audio playback means disposed within said case, said audio playback means containing a personalized audio message from a gift donor to a gift recipient; and
display means for displaying an image of said gift donor on an external surface of said case.

19. The method for presenting a personalized message to a gift recipient according to
The present application is based or U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/124,377 for "ORNAMENTAL PROJECTOR AND SOUND DEVICE"; Filed: Mar. 15, 1999.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for visually and audibly presenting highly personal thoughts and engrams of a person as a gift to a loved one. The gift may be embodied in seasonal items, such as Christmas ornaments and Easter eggs, in jewelry, such as pendants, and other household keepsake items such as framed pictures, and employs a slide transparency for projecting an image.
2. Description of the Background
Often, the greatest gifts one can receive from a loved one are those in which a person gives to another something of a personal nature, thereby imparting a reminder of the loved one, forming a connection between the donor and the recipient. One such gift is a picture of the donor, particularly if it is accompanied with a personalized audio message directed toward the recipient. Although the present state of the an entails use of audio and video recordings, the prior an lacks a simple and inexpensive means of presenting a sentimental gift including personal engrams of the donor and pictures of the donor. Moreover, the prior art fails to reflect embodiments which combine such personal messages with themes associated with the season of the gift.
A variety of examples of structures adapted for various presentations includes U.S. Pat. No. 4,303,915 to D'Angelo et al. which describes a handheld alphanumeric display device.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,839,749 to Franklin describes a device having pre-recorded speech messages, triggerable from pre-set alarms.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,951,203 to Halamka describes a system for prerecording and transmitting personalized audio and video messages.
Others include U.S. Pat. No. 5,278,662 to Womach et al. describing a system for pre-recording personalized video messages capable of interweaving the message with separately pre-recorded background scenes.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,302,970 to Lakso et al. describes a personal communication device comprising a keyboard for use in transmitting alphameric data to remote screen.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,543,588 to Bisset et al. describes a personal communication device operated by a touch tone screen.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,594,462 to Fishman et al. describes a flexible raster control on a transmitted remote rasterized display.
Still others include U.S. Pat. No. 5,644,690 to Yoshino et al. describing a display system for assimilating a montage of facial, features into a hypothetical face.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,648,753 to Martin describes a portable sound effect player which plays prerecorded sounds which are stored on pre-record interchangeable plug in cartridges.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,648,760 to Kumar describes a portable recording and playback messaging and scheduling device with home base station.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,695,346 to Sekiguchi et al. describes a process for making video images using fresnel lenses so as to give the perception of movement.
An article in Electronics Review describes a single chip speech synthesizer capable of synthesizing digitized human speech and a QSI product brochure describes a hand held message display device.
Foreign publications include U.K. Patent Application 2039394A to Fujisawa describing an electronic calculator having an audible sound output.
U.K. Pat. Application 2126 764A to Sinclair describes a hand held portable electronic device for displaying information.
Japanese Pat. Application 51-160476 to Seikosha describes a watch having an audio and a video display.
Although a plethora of technological devices exist which may be able to store, synthesize and otherwise display audio-visual images, none of the above prior art references, taken either singly or in combination, is seen to describe the instant invention as claimed.
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide an apparatus and method for presenting highly personal thoughts, sentiments, and engrams of persons in the form of a gift to a loved one. The present invention entails presenting a personal gift which imparts a sentiment of the giver to the recipient via an image and an audio message, taking advantage of the prevailing position that gifts of a loved one are the most highly cherished, thereby creating a highly personal gift to the recipient. A gift which contains a likeness of the loved one transfers the associated feelings of the loved one and helps retain and remember those feelings. One may also transfer feelings of an occasion or season by combining the personal message with a representative embodiment of the season, for example, a Christmas ornament. However, typically, transferring the photographic image of the donor and personalizing the gift can only be done by having a specialist use expensive means to transfer the image to the gift. The present invention overcomes this problem, suggesting a means using a simple photo transparency, such as a color slide, to project the donor's image onto a screen, either formed in a case of a predetermined theme or onto a wall, thus allowing the donor to simply and easily incorporate his or her own image, and voice, in a personalized way without the need to send out the image for incorporation into the gift.
Accordingly, it is a principal object of the invention to present a gift having an image of a loved one to a recipient of the gift in conjunction with a personalized audio message.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a gift representative of special occasions, such as holidays, to a recipient.
It is another object of the invention to combine a Christmas ornament with a personalized audio and video message from a donor to a gift recipient.
It is an object of the invention to provide improved elements and arrangements thereof in an apparatus for the purposes described which is inexpensive, dependable and fully effective in accomplishing its intended purposes.
These and other objects of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.
Other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiment and certain modifications thereof when taken together with the accompanying drawings in which:

The present invention is an audio playback and visual image presentation device for use as a personal gift, wherein the donor gives something of him or herself to a recipient in the form of an audio message from the donor to the recipient in conjunction with a video image of the recipient.
As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a first embodiment is shown comprising a case 200, with a screen 356, an audio speaker 160, and an activation switch 110. The case 200 may take on the form of a Christmas bulb 210, which takes on the added symbolism of the associated holiday, when family and friends are often together and hence the occasion and the engrams mutually reinforce the concept. However, as shown in the additional Figures, the case 200, may be any of a number of items which are commonly passed on as gifts. Such items include, for example, toy rabbits 220 (FIG. 7), picture frames 230 (FIG. 5), pennants 240 (FIG. 6), pendants 250 (FIG. 10), jewelry, ties, kerchiefs, sports trophies, coffee cups, cards, music or jewelry boxes, pens, watches, knick-knacks, vases, valentine cards 260 (FIG. 11), or gag gifts. A gift which passes on sentiments of the occasion will reinforce the association. A gift of an object which will continuously keep the loved one in sight will ideally reinforce the association. Alternatively, as suggested by FIG. 6, an event or occasion may also take on such significance. A reminder of the event may be obtained with audio messages and video images of such events, such as a sports championship commemorated through a trophy having these reminders of teammates, coaches, or honored officials.
The audio message 201 may be pre-recorded by the donor. The message recorded preferably will be of a personal nature, something having a character of the interpersonal nature between the two parties or having a content attributable to the character of the donor, including humorous gags or personal social greetings. As suggested in FIG. 2, the message may be pre-recorded remotely from the case 200, being digitized and downloaded into a Programmable Read Only Memory chip (PROM) 140 (including derivative variations, of PROM's such as EPROM, EEPROM, etc.) in the form of a cartridge, chip, or micro-cassette. The cartridge or chip is then plugged into a circuit board 121 disposed within the case 200. The circuit board 121 includes a speech synthesizer 120 which will convert the digital data stored in the PROM into the appropriate analog signal to generate the simulated speech of the donor. The output of the speech synthesizer 120 chip is sent to the input of an audio amplifier 150. The output of the audio amplifier 150 is sent to the speaker 160. A small battery 170, such as those used in hearing aids, watches, calculators, cameras, tape recorders, etc., may be used to supply power to the components. The audio playing of the message may be activated by an activation switch 110 operably connected to the circuitry board 121, the switch taking the form of a button, a slide switch, a thereto-sensitive switch, an electrostatic-sensitive switch, or a vibration-motion sensing switch.
The case 200 has an aperture 205 in the side of the case, either for the placement of a target screen (as suggested by FIG. 1), for the transmission of the projected image outside the case (as suggested by FIG. 8), or for the placement of a slide transparency at the opening (as suggested by FIG. 10). As shown by the first embodiment of FIG. 1, a second aperture or slot 331 is provided for insertion of a slide transparency 330, which resides in a track 333 disposing the transparency in a light path. The image 300 (FIG. 1) would be projected by means of a light source 310 (FIG. 2) emitting light to a concentrator or condenser lens 320, the condenser lens passing the light beam 325 through the slide transparency 330 with the image being sent on to the projection 340 or dispersal lens, before striking a target screen 350.
This screen 350 may be inside of the case 200 or it may be on the outside of the case 200. In the Christmas bulb embodiment, a screen 356 is located on the side of the case 200 formed in the shape of a bulb (FIG. 1). If the target screen 350 is on the surface of the case 200, the screen 350 will need be translucent permitting the image to be viewed from the outside of the case 200. A translucent screen 350 permits an image to be partially transmitted and partially highlighted such that the image 300 is viewable by a person looking at the screen 356 outside the case 200. Under such an arrangement, the image 300 is projected on the inside of the screen 356 and will be mirror imaged with respect to the image viewable on the outside of the screen or case.
If the image is not projected on a translucent screen 356 at the surface of the case 200, it will strike a wall 354 or other opaque target screen 350. With either target screen 350, moving the relative positions of the lenses with respect to the slide 330 image source will provide a means for focusing the image 300 on the appropriately chosen screen. Alternately, a slide 330 could be positioned at the edge of the case 200 for direct viewing of the slide 330, as also suggested in FIG. 10.
In alternative embodiments (not shown), the projected image 330 may be replaced with an image 330 generated on a liquid crystal display (LCD), or on a cathode ray tube (CRT). In other embodiments, the projected image could be replaced with a direct picture. In still other embodiments the image 300 could be replaced with multiple images selectively viewed based upon the viewers angle by the use of fresnel lenses, thereby creating images of multiple positions which could create a perception of movement. In yet another alternative embodiment, an epidiascope type projector may be used wherein, the source image is an opaque object, such as a photograph. In the epidiascope configuration the light source is directed on the object, the light source, condenser and image source are not all in line with one another.
Alternately and as shown in FIG. 12, the light source may comprise a candle or a laser 800 or the terminal end of a fiber optic line (which in itself would have a light source at the source end of the optical fiber). Laser holography techniques may be used to project an image on a screen. Techniques well known from the field of laser holography may be combined and applied into the present invention. In one of its simplest forms, the holographic image may be made by directing a laser beam 810 through a beam splitter 820, sending the unsplit portion of the beam to a second mirror 835, through a first beam spreading lens 840 on to a high resolution holographic slide image 850 on to a target. The split portion of the beam is directed to a first mirror 830, then on to a second beam spreading lens 845, then to the high resolution holographic slide 850, then on to the target image for recombination with the unsplit portion of the beam.
A plurality of such laser sources, beam splitters, reflective mirrors, and beam spreading lenses may be used in conjunction with the focusing of the spread beams to convergence in three dimensional space for a three dimensional projected image running at the points of the beam convergence.
A donor would typically make a recording of a message intended as an expression of his or her sentiments for the recipient to hear. Digital recordings could be made by converting analog signal to digital using digital to analog converters and then recording the digitized material. The digitized data may be loaded into PROM 140, wherein the PROM may be a subset of the speech synthesizer 120, or a separate chip or a separate cartridge. The discrete chips or cartridges with their prerecorded messages may be plugged into the speech synthesizer. In one embodiment, the audio recording may be made by combining, as an onboard component (within the case), a recording device which stores the auditory message into RAM or tape based storage media as are readily available in miniaturized forms. The construction details of such recorders are well known and are not necessary as it is the combination which is embodied in the invention. Alternately, the donor may record the message at a remote location such as a remote dedicated sound booth onto a micro-cassette 180 or cassette which is then inserted in the playback unit of the memento. In alternative embodiments of storing images, the donor takes a video image 300 of himself or herself, processes it in such a way as to make storable in some storage medium such a photographs, slide, binary file, etc. The donor then places the slide or other storage medium within the case 200 or on the side aperture 205 of the case 200, whichever means being appropriate for the specific embodiment.
Alternatively, a video image made by incorporating as an onboard component (within the case) a video camera having storage and playback capability, such cameras being readily available in the market. The construction details of such cameras are not explained as it is the combination which is embodied in the invention. The camera may capture the image through a visually transparent aperture in the case.
It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the sole embodiments described above, but encompasses any and all embodiments within the scope of the following claims. For instance, the size and shape of the present invention may be easily adapted for use as a wall or door attachment to serve as a front door greeting or the like, or any other fixture where an audio/video message from the donor to the recipient is appropriate.
Having now fully set forth the preferred embodiments and certain modifications of the concept underlying the present invention, various other embodiments as well as certain variations and modifications of the embodiments herein shown and described will obviously occur to those skilled in the art upon becoming familiar with said underlying concept. It is to be understood, therefore, that the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically set forth in the appended claims.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - "12 Angry Men" refers to the jurors in a New York City murder case involving a young Puerto Rican man accused of murdering his father. The film wrestled with weighty issues for 1957, including morality, racism and the legal concept of reasonable doubt.
Klugman plays juror number 5 -- none of the jurors are named in the film except two at the very end -- whose background in poverty gives him an insight into the case that none of the others have. The film included such acting heavyweights such as Henry Fonda, Martin Balsam and Ed Begley.
The debut film of director by Sidney Lumet, the filmmaker went on to helm "Dog Day Afternoon," "Network" and "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead."
"12 Angry Men" was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" in 2007.
A media education charity revealed that it was the second most-screened film in schools after the oddball gangster musical using child actors, "Bugsy Malone."
Of the original "12 Angry Men," Martin Balsam (Juror 1), died in 1996. He appeared in "Psycho," "On the Waterfront." "Catch-22," "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "All the President's Men." He won an Oscar in 1966 for "A Thousand Clowns." He also appeared as a guest star on an episode of Quincy ME.
John Fiedler (Juror 2) died in 2005. He was Vinnie in the film version of Neil Simon's "The Odd Couple" (with Klugman). He was also in "True Grit" and the "Cannonball Run."
Lee J. Cobb (Juror 3) died in 1976. He was nominated for an Oscar for his role opposite Marlon Brando in "On the Waterfront." Cobb became notorious for naming names in the McCarthy "Red Scare."
E G Marshall (Juror 4) died 1998. He was known for his role as lawyer Lawrence Preston on TV show "The Defenders" in the 1960s.
Edward Binns (Juror 6) died 1990. He played General Bedlell Smith in award-winning 1970 film "Patton" and was prolific in several prominent TV shows
Jack Warden (Juror 7) died 2006. The former paratrooper and boxer got Oscar nominations for "Shampoo" and "Heaven Can Wait."
Henry Fonda (Juror 8) died 1982. He won an Oscar for "On Golden Pond" (1981). He also appeared in "The Grapes of Wrath," "The Longest Day" and "Once Upon a Time in the West."
Joseph Sweeney (Juror 9) died 1963. A famous stage and then-TV actor Sweeney portrayed Giles Corey in Arthur Miller's "The Crucible."
Ed Begley (Juror 10) died 1970. He won 1962 Best Supporting Actor Oscar for "Sweet Bird of Youth" and was also in "The Unsinkable Molly Brown."
George Voskovec (Juror 11) fled the Nazis from his native Prague in 1939 and acted in 72 movies. Only the first five of these were Czech; the rest were American or British.
Robert Webber (Juror 12) died 1989. He appeared with Dudley Moore in "10" and as a general in "The Dirty Dozen."
Klugman reportedly died peacefully at home with his wife Peggy by his side. "He had a great life and he enjoyed every moment of it and he would encourage others to do the same," his son said.

Find a Therapist on Your Own:
As the leading advocate for healthy psychotherapy, we are approached daily by people who want advice about psychotropic medication. The most common question people have is whether GoodTherapy.org recommends medication to deal with mental health concerns such as depression, anxiety, and others. "Should I take medication for ..." is one of the most frequent queries we receive. In all instances we recommend that site visitors discuss medication with their health care providers. GoodTherapy.org is not authorized to make recommendations about medication or serve as a substitute for professional advice. Nonetheless, we aim to provide useful resources about medication to our visitors and clearly outline our position on the use of medication for mental health purposes.
Many emotional and mental health issues are not reducible to a biochemical imbalance. Often, psychological concerns originate and are influenced by life events—what happens to and around us. Because medications do not change how people relate psychologically to their experiences, medication alone cannot "fix" all psychological issues. Treatment with medication alone can be like stitching up a bullet wound without taking the bullet out first.
What's more, according to research done at Northwestern University, oversimplification of what causes depression has led to the development of antidepressant drugs that are actually designed to treat stress. Because the same research shows that, in animal models, chronic stress does not cause depression, these medications are often ineffective. Psychotherapy, on the other hand, is often able to discover and treat some of the mental health issues that may contribute to depression, such as psychological trauma and anxiety. For example, a 1995 Consumer Reports study shows that some individuals experiencing mental health issues were significantly helped by psychotherapy. The study found that long-term therapy had, in general, the most beneficial effect, and that treatment with therapy alone was no less effective than treatment with medication and psychotherapy.
Dr. Daniel Carlat, a psychopharmacologist, wrote about his own experiences prescribing psychotropic medication in the article "Mind over Meds," which appeared in a 2010 issue of The New York Times Magazine. He found that the individuals he treated responded better to treatment with psychotherapy and medication together than they did to treatment with medication alone, and that by providing more counseling, he was better able to understand the true nature of their concerns. Research supports his findings, showing that therapy can stimulate the growth of neurons and synaptic connections between neurons. Medication for depression, anxiety, and other emotional problems does not do this. This is why therapy is capable of healing core problems and facilitating long-term changes, and why medication alone cannot.
For an in-depth comparison of medication and psychotherapy, read Doctor, Do You Think I Need Medication?
Psychotropic drugs are prescribed to treat a variety of mental health issues when those issues cause significant impairment to healthy functioning. Psychotropic drugs typically work by changing or balancing the amount of important chemicals in the brain called neurotransmitters. Some mental health issues show improvement when neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine are increased or decreased. Psychotropic drugs are usually prescribed by a psychiatrist, a psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP), or a primary care physician; in some areas, clinical psychologists may have prescriptive privileges as well.
One in four individuals, or about 25% of the population, will experience a mental health issue at some point in their lives, according to the World Health Organization. Depression and anxiety are among the most common issues, and these issues can affect people regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, or background. Researchers cannot say with certainty what causes most instances of mental health impairment. Environmental factors and genetics often combine to predispose someone to a particular problem. In other cases, traumatic events or serious injuries result in psychological symptoms that persist for years.
Some individuals feel that psychotropic drugs are often not enough by themselves to help someone overcome a mental health issue, and many healthcare providers recommend that an individual use them as a supplement to therapy, not as a replacement for therapy. Social support from family and friends, structured therapy, lifestyle changes, and other treatment protocols can all be important factors in the recovery process. Severe mental health issues may require inpatient rehabilitation before the person experiencing them can return to everyday life.
Certain individuals who are prescribed psychiatric medications may prefer not to take them, or they find that these medications do not improve their symptoms enough to outweigh any side effects or risks. The Freedom Center's Harm Reduction Guide for Coming off Psychiatric Drugs, a 40-page guide written by Will Hall and published by The Icarus Project and Freedom Center, offers information about reducing or stopping psychiatric medications. The guide is not meant to instruct anyone to stop taking psychiatric medications, but rather, it aims to educate consumers about their options if they decide to explore going off of psychotropic medications.
A cause of concern to many is the practice of prescribing medications that were originally developed for adults to children. The increase in diagnoses of psychiatric conditions in children---bipolar in particular---has led to an increase in the amount of children who take psychiatric medications, some of which have only been fully tested in adults.
Though these medications have been shown to help relieve at least some symptoms in minors, at least for the short-term, questions have been raised about the long-term effects that some of the medications might have on developing children and whether these children actually have conditions that were originally thought to only exist in adults. In the PBS FRONTLINE production, The Medicated Child, this topic is explored by Marcela Gaviria, who questions psychiatrists and researchers about the risks and benefits of prescribing psychiatric medications to children with mental health conditions.
Several different types of medications are used to treat mental health conditions. The following is a list of the major categories of psychotropic medications:
Based on 2013 data, here is a list of the 10 most prescribed psychotropic drugs in the United States (with the number of prescriptions written during the year):
Medication that works well for one person may not work well for another. It is important to have an in-depth conversation about your medical history, symptoms, diagnosis, and goals with your medical provider before beginning a psychotropic medication. You cannot legally purchase psychotropic medication without a prescription.
