The latest movie theater news and updates

New life for small-town theaters
It certainly can't be said for independent theaters in general but many are having a revival. Small communities are looking for reason to come back downtown and the neighborhood theater can be a focal point.
The Wichita Eagle is featuring a photo gallery of some of its local success stories like the State in Larned, St. Francis' Cheyenne, the Stafford Ritz and the Pretty Prairie Civic.

A look into the Belcourt
NASHVILLE, TN — Open since 1925, the Belcourt Theatre has had a varied history filled with film and live music. It's going better than ever but not with tireless work from its staff.
The Tennessean took a detailed look at its history and the stories behind.

What about the curtains?
So much is written about the decline of cinemas in general but how about how curtains have been forgotten? The Chicago Reader took a look at how this one omission has vastly changed the moviegoing experience.

Laurel residents picture uses for old movie theater
LAUREL, MD — The Laurel Cinema has been in limbo for years but locals haven't given up on the 1929 theatre. The city now owns it and may demolish it as it's been vandalized numerous times and frankly needs a lot of work. There's still hope though that it would be renovated into some form of arts facility.
Read more about the decision to be made soon in the Gazette.
Quad Cinema changes hands
NEW YORK, NY — The 1972 Quad Cinema, the city's first four-screen theatre, has been sold to real estate developer Charles S. Cohen. Not to worry though, the former owners turned down higher offers because of Cohen's commitment to the theatre. He plans to extensively renovate it in 2015 and turn it into a repertory house primarily. The art-house favorite will live on.

AMC Yorktown to get luxury treatment
LOMBARD, IL — The Yorktown 18 has been growing and growing since opening 1970 but now it's scaling down a bit, at least in seating capacity. This is because they're now becoming AMC's first dine-in theatre in Illinois thanks to their RedKitchen program. There will also be a bar and lounge, MacGuffins, near the theatre entrance. Most of the work should be done by the end of the year.

Free Event: Jon Boschen's Garden Theatre Gala
GREENFIELD, MA — Throughout the twentieth century theaters have played a vital role in both American society and culture. Greenfield, Massachusetts had several theaters throughout the course of the twentieth century that greatly contributed to both the Greenfield community and Franklin County. The Garden Theatre was perhaps the most unique and the most memorable one to be built in the town due to its unique architectural style. After opening in 1929 and up to its 1983 renovation, the Garden's atmospheric appearance greatly added to the programs and events that took place there and created a memorable experience for everyone who attended.

Remember Me
With Morcheeba, Skye sold over
6 million albums and after a 7 year break in 2003, she returned to the band and they completed a successful 18 month tour around Europe, America, Canada & South America. Skye then started to write for her third solo album with longtime collaborator and husband Steve Gordon.
Undoubtedly her most provocative release to date, we hear a much bolder, buoyant sound with sonic layering, driving retro-futurist beats and the quirky voices of old synthesisers. Skye says "We took a different approach when it came to the songwriting and started with beats and loops instead of a guitar or piano."
This pivotal work fine-tunes the music that we heard before on Skye's 2006 debut 'Mind How You Go' and her 2nd solo album 'Keeping Secrets', released in 2009. 'Back To Now' signals a new direction, with ingenious tracks and flawless arrangements that lend gravitas. You can't help but fall in love with Skye's mesmerising charisma.

Comments (1)
Runcorn is an old industrial town situated at the edge of Cheshire, bordered by Warrington, Widnes, Frodsham, and Daresbury village and close to the borough of Merseyside. Since the newtown development in the 1970's, much of the population of Liverpool found cheaper housing when the slum areas where knocked down, moving to areas like Runcorn to the south and Skelmersdale to the North, lots of cheap nasty housing developments created deprived 'sink' estates, and drugs and crime became a problem with the influx of a growing criminal fraternity. The people in general whether 'native' or liverpudlian are generally close-knit extremely nice people, there is like anywhere though a small criminal element. Places to be avoided at night especially, being Halton Brook, Windmill Hill, Palacefields shops area, Castlefields to an extent (although it has improved greatly) Grangeway and Murdishaw, although this is generally if you don't live in Runcorn, or it is identified that you don't, most people however will be happy to help you find your way around. There are 1 or 2 nice attractions and places to go although to be honest I've lived here since 1988 and it's always seemed to me to be a 'toilet.' The nightlife is pretty grim, the people can't hold their ale, hence the frequent violence in the town centre. Bit of a ***-tip, and no point going to Widnes as that's not any better, and also stinks of sh*te. If you're looking for a night out just hop on a train for 15 minutes to Liverpool, in fact, you are best travelling their to do almost anything, it's only 4 pound 40 return if you get a virgin train, and it is worth every penny whatever activity you may seek, just stay away from the estates in Liverpool like Norris Green and Croxteth etc and you'll be great.

Tip: Categorizing images[edit]
Hello, Odysseus1479!
Thanks a lot for contributing to the Wikimedia Commons! Here's a tip to make your uploads more useful: Why not add some categories to describe them? This will help more people to find and use them.
Here's how:
1) If you're using the UploadWizard, you can add categories to each file when you describe it. Just click "more options" for the file and add the categories which make sense:
2) You can also pick the file from your list of uploads, edit the file description page, and manually add the category code at the end of the page.
- [[Category:Category name]]
For example, if you are uploading a diagram showing the orbits of comets, you add the following code:
- [[Category:Astronomical diagrams]]
- [[Category:Comets]]
This will make the diagram show up in the categories "Astronomical diagrams" and "Comets".
When picking categories, try to choose a specific category ("Astronomical diagrams") over a generic one ("Illustrations"). Pro-tip: The CommonSense tool can help you find the best category for your image.
Thanks again for your uploads! More information about categorization can be found in Commons:Categories, and don't hesitate to leave a note on the help desk.

Autopatrol given[edit]
Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically sighted. This will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to help users watching Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones. Thank you. INeverCry 01:19, 25 November 2013 (UTC)
|Category:Athabasca has been listed at Commons:Categories for discussion so that the community can discuss ways in which it should be changed. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.
If you created this category, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for discussion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it. If the category is up for deletion because it has been superseded, consider the notion that although the category may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new category.
In all cases, please do not take the category discussion personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you!

Lincoln's Inn[edit]
Hi there! I see you overturned my changes to some files, referring to the descriptions. These description are not entirely clear to me, but seem to say that the file has to do with the coats of arms in the glass and not with the fact that they were in the London building. If that is the case, maybe it would be better to create a seperate category "Coats of arms of....", don't you think? --Judithcomm (talk) 07:32, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
- Yes … and yes, if the category is intended for (or contains media mainly concerning) the building itself, rather than the eponymous legal institution. I wonder whether it would be better to make such a category for all the Inns of Court together, or a separate cat for each of the four.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 07:50, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
- Personally I am not very fond of categories that contain only one item. So one category for all coats of arms would be nice.--Judithcomm (talk) 10:06, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
- Well, there were at least two images for each of the three Inns concerned—and there was already a drawing of the Gray's Inn gryphon, not proper to the place—so I created both the parent and a set of subcats, for consistency's sake. (JFTR I don't have a problem with one-file categories myself, especially where the filename doesn't refer to the topic.) I have also copied (not moved) images of these arms from the buildings & grounds into the respective cats.
- BTW, if you know something about the site or the related organizations, do Staple and Barnards Inns belong in Inns of Court?—Odysseus1479 (talk) 03:37, 16 April 2014 (UTC)
- I don't any have more knowledge than you about this, probably less. There's a historical connection there for both according to Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnard%27s_Inn, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Staple_Inn. --Judithcomm (talk) 09:52, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

I'm not invader[edit]
I'm User:Doncsecz, and this is my request in the meta wiki: here. 22.214.171.124 17:49, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
- Hello, Doncsecz! Sorry, I think there was a linguistic problem: although "to usurp" is usually a negative action, as the word is ordinarily used, in the Wikimedia projects it is just jargon for taking over an abandoned account so as to edit under that name. (I can't think of anything else I wrote that may have given the idea that I thought you were an "invader".) I certainly did not intend to imply that you did anything wrong, or that you would be unwelcome here. Please accept my apologies for my part in any miscommunication that has occurred, and I sincerely hope you get your account sorted out.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 00:23, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
Hello Odysseus1479, I am writing on behalf of Doncsecz who asked me to help him get his account back. As an administrator on huwiki I can assure you the user behind the IP is the same person as user:Doncsecz on Commons and also on huwiki. I tried contacting the SUL stewards but I was directed back to Commons bureaucrats who would look after Commons local accounts. Do you see any solution to his problem? Though Doncsecz actually logged in his account about a month ago, he told me that for some reason he had had to change his password on Commons which he unfortunately forgot. Is usurping the account a viable solution? It would only be a technical usurpation not a real one. Csigabi (talk) 10:50, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
- Sorry, I know little about the usurpation process; I only suggested it because I'd heard of it being done (on enWP) with unused or long-abandoned accounts (created by a different person) and thought its scope might be broad enough to accommodate a situation like this. That was just speculation, and from what you say it seems that I was wrong in thinking it could be handled through SUL. The next step might be to post at COM:BN explaining the situation; maybe someone there can help. It may be possible for Doncsecz to authenticate through OTRS or the "committed identity" system, if your vouching for him is thought to be insufficient. I'm just an ordinary user (and not particularly well informed about procedures) so I'm afraid I can't do much more, other than to wish you luck.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 04:28, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
Re:Categories and moving[edit]
Hello, I'm pretty sure that any logged in user can move categories. If I look at a category, I have a "move" tab at the top which functions just like the move tab on Wikipedia. Green Giant (talk) 04:15, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks; I'd seen that link, but assumed it was just to a request form like the one i get from the similar menu item on File pages. But on Category pages it does seem to be 'the real deal'.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 05:18, 27 July 2014 (UTC)
Thank you[edit]
I just noticed your note, & wanted to say thank you for your concern about the restoration of my talk page, its ok, I will add myself a section about my girl on the page, and she will live forever in my heart. She was a sweetheart like no other. Again thanks for your concern, it has been a really hard week for me.--WPPilot (talk) 12:36, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
How do you know when to use them? Or does it matter, since sometimes they're used and sometimes not? Is there an explanation somewhere? Thanks, and sorry for all those empty cats! EChastain (talk) 01:26, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
- First of all, if you would almost always look up the topic under something other than the start of the category name, it should have a {{DEFAULTSORT:}} entry; this is typical for (modern) people, whose cats are forename(s)-first but should be indexed by surname. In effect this is equivalent to adding "|Surname, Forename" to every parent cat. Such cats as City of X, Mount Y, and River Z can also be handled this way.
- Conversely, if the category name starts with what you'd look for in any index, it shouldn't ever need sort keys. (I've seen it done, putting Xville into Towns in Yland by writing "[[Category:Towns in Yland|Xville]]", but I don't see the point.)
- Otherwise, it depends on the context: how the parent category is organized. A typical case for a key is where the first part of the name is common to most or all the entries in that cat. For example, Flag of Xville is fine under "Flag" in the Xville category, but in Flags of towns in Yland you'd look for it under "Xville".
- Then there's 'special' sorting for meta, index, or intersection categories. Where a cat contains both specific topics and groups, the latter are often sorted with a leading space or other punctuation (rather inconsistently chosen in general, although there appear to be a few fairly widely followed conventions in certain subject areas), to separate them from the rest. For example People of Xville might contain a lot of individual cats sorted by surname, while cats like People of Xville by occupation and Nineteenth-century Xvillians will appear at the beginning so they don't get lost among the Ps and Ns. In the Xville category you might see cats like Black and white photographs of Xville so treated—photo categories are often sorted under * (asterisk).
- Note that some of this also applies to files. If I find an uncategorized photo of Mary Smith from Xville, I might put it in [[Category:People of Xville|Smith, Mary]], making it easier to find when someone gets around to creating a cat for her.
- Does any of that make sense? There's plenty of inconsistency around here, to say the least, but one does what one can … See COM:Categories#Creating a new category: not much there but it's policy.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 02:51, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
- To tell you the truth, no. You lost me at DEFAULTSORT. I've never seen that here. I've seen it on en:wiki. Wait! I seen it in the edit window. So how would I apply that. How would it help me to find how UK names its different parts or in the "in" vs. "of" problem? (The latter seems not to be standardised.) Anyway, I appreciate any help. Since I've been here I've only received one message warning me about "over-categorization" and a few images questions until recently, so your categorisation posts are most welcome. EChastain (talk) 03:30, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
- Neither DEFAULTSORT nor an individual key is displayed; they're only visible while editing, part of the machinery as it were.
- Feel free to ask questions about any part of the above, and I'll try and take it step by step. Might some examples 'from the wild' help to illustrate what's done in practice? Note that sort-keys concern only where items are displayed on category and gallery pages, not why they belong there in the first place.
- Regarding the UK, I haven't done a lot 'there', especially outside the Scottish Highlands, but I usually manage to find my way around. I have seen editors complaining what a mess it is, but I doubt it's much worse than anywhere else. ;) (The vast number of un- or poorly-categorized Geograph images is an exacerbating factor, though.) As for "in" and "of", there's a lot of inconsistency in practice, but in theory "in" should refer to mere location and "of" to deeper connections, possibly involving origin, possession, or control. There's a considerable grey area of overlap, though, which is part of the problem. The distinction doesn't usually matter much IMO, but sometimes there's a need for both.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 04:34, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
- Someone provided me with this Venn diagram of the British Isles that's helpful to me.[1] He said categories that use the word "Britain" are wrong. (I didn't know that, though maybe you do.) EChastain (talk) 16:14, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
- I don't know if or where it may have been discussed here, but it's very ambiguous, so I can see why it would be deemed unsuitable for categorization. In common usage "Britain" can mean any of: the British Isles, the UK, the island of Great Britain, or the historical Kingdom of Great Britain (1707–1800).—Odysseus1479 (talk) 22:06, 22 February 2015 (UTC)

some more questions[edit]
Where is the place to ask this:
- File:Homesteader NE 1866.png is dated 1866 in the file name, but the description says:
- Description: "The Covered Wagon of the Great Western Migration. 1886 in Loup Valley, Nebr." A family poses with the wagon in which they live and travel daily during their pursuit of a homestead.
- Date: 1886
- Source: NARA - ARC Identifier 518267
Does it seem more likely that the uploader used the wrong date in naming the file, or that the uploader made a mistake in the description? If the former, is it possible to rename the file? Is there a place to ask questions such as this? Thanks, EChastain (talk) 16:07, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
- That's a bit of a puzzle. When I see a factual discrepancy in a file that comes from an online collection, I go to the source site to see where it may have originated. In this case the description has 1866 in three places (including the date); only the original caption has 1886 (as quoted above). It seems likely that the curators corrected the date based on the age of other images in the same collection, or some other external evidence—but there's also a chance it was a typo that got propagated into several parts of the record. Personally, I'd be hesitant to override anything in the source without strong evidence; here I might change the Date field to something like "1866 (per National Archives; originally captioned 1886)" to point out the discrepancy without trying to settle it. I might also leave a note on the file's Talk page. (Now I see someone has changed the original caption, which I will revert as soon as I've finished this posting, because it's quoted text we shouldn't mess with.) It doesn't appear that the uploader introduced the discrepancy, anyway.
- In cases where a file needs renaming (and I'm not sure this is one), for those of us who aren't admins or file movers, there's a "Move" item in the "More" menu near the top right of the screen. That takes you to a form where you choose the appropriate criterion (factual inaccuracy is #3) and give your rationale. The file will be tagged for attention by a user with the necessary privileges—usually pretty promptly IME.
- I don't know any good places for research questions on this site, but there may be a American-history WikiProject with an active noticeboard. There certainly are such on enWP, also the Reference Desk there. I usually see what I can turn up elsewhere online, searching both text and with TinEye: PD photos sometimes turn up on pages with (apparently) informed commentary from which one can glean a crucial fact or two.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 21:37, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
- P.S. I've added to the description, but I left the categories alone. Something else occurred to me, if you want to pursue this question further. There's a contact email on the source collection's page: maybe someone there can trace the discrepancy in their documentation.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 21:56, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for the file upload information[edit]
3rdWorldkid (talk) 11:54, 14 March 2015 (UTC) Thank you for your practical and helpful answer to my question at the Village Pump.
- Not at all, @3rdWorldkid: feel free to drop me a line if you need help with anything else.—Odysseus1479 (talk) 20:10, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
I don't have any objections. I didn't do anything on this file, except processing a duplicate :) Pleclown (talk) 06:27, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

The critically acclaimed final masterwork of John Gardner: an American novel haunted with macabre and cerebral elements.
The final novel by John Gardner, Mickelsson's Ghosts, originally published in 1982 just months before his untimely death in a motorcycle accident, is a tour de force. The protagonist Peter Mickelsson, a former star philosophy professor at Brown, relocates to Binghamton University. On the verge of bankruptcy, separated from his wife, in questionable mental health, and drinking heavily, Mickelsson decides to buy a country house in northeastern Pennsylvania. What he encounters there are impassioned and shameless love affairs (one of which results in a regrettable pregnancy), a Mormon extremist cult, small town mythologies, the robbery of a robber, multiple murders, the ghosts of an incestuous family, Plato, and our hero's own possible insanity.

Kibs Sings his anime review this week, at the request of Sandy. Lyrics: This is a message, they wrote you a note here: "Please Forgive" It's hard to understand just why I came here This was their dying…their dying wish was to confess All the things they could not say before it was too late… There's no point in crying for you long lost lover As long as you remember that your love was so pure. Now your mourning is done, let me show you my gun All you people who are still alive. I'm pretty angry, I'll have to admit I was quite pissed When you used me for all of your writing. It tore me to pieces, I got a new personality. But then, of course, she got real mad, and then she kind of shot you. Now five points of data I would like to give you: Animation was good, and the soundtrack was too. The story was fun, characters number one. Overall I can say it's a five.

AUSTIN, Texas — Felecia Shankle-Rogers, a recent alumna of The University of Texas School of Law, died at Baylor Medical Center in Dallas, Texas, on Wed., Dec. 8, 2004. Rogers suffered a severe stroke that left her in a coma while on her honeymoon in Bangkok, Thailand. She was 27 years old.
As a tribute, Felecia's friends and family have created The Felecia Shankle-Rogers Endowed Presidential Scholarship. Awarded on the basis of merit, this scholarship will afford deserving law students the opportunity to achieve their educational goals while minimizing their financial burdens. Contributions should be made payable to "The University of Texas Law School Foundation" and sent to The Felecia Shankle-Rogers Endowed Presidential Scholarship Fund, c/o Nancy Brazzil, Assistant Dean for Development & Alumni Relations, The University of Texas School of Law, 727 East Dean Keeton Street, Austin, Texas 78705.
Rogers grew up in Longview, Texas and graduated from Longview High School in 1995. She received a B.A. in sports management and communications, with high honors, from The University of Michigan in 1998, and a J.D. from The University of Texas in 2001. She practiced intellectual property law with Leydig, Voit & Mayer in Chicago since 2002.
"Felecia was a wonderful person. Her presence here at the Law School made everyone she knew better for the experience," said Dean Bill Powers.
Shankle's torts professor, David Anderson, recalled her days at UT Law. "Felecia was remarkably cheerful and friendly. She was full of enthusiasm, and had a smile and a warm hello for everyone."
Her moot court coach Kameron Johnson, '92, recalls his time coaching Shankle on the Frederick Douglass Moot Court team. Johnson, a juvenile public defender in Austin and former adjunct professor at UT Law said, "She was an outstanding advocate and along with Wendy Hall became regional champions and national finalists. She also showed extraordinary advocacy as a member of the Juvenile Justice Clinic where she represented juveniles in proceedings in District Court."
"Felecia was one of the students who vigorously sought to ensure that a post-Hopwood UT Law was as diverse as a pre-Hopwood UT Law," said close friend and fellow alumna Wendy Hall, '01. "She spent countless hours recruiting during her three years at the Law School and was quick to tell prospective students that her choice of UT Law over Stanford was eminently logical considering the comparable education and the vast difference in costs."
"The untimely death of Felecia Shankle-Rogers this December was a tragic loss for her family and friends as well as the legal profession," said Melynda Price, a close friend and fellow 2001 graduate of UT Law. "Felecia was, throughout our woefully short relationship, my friend, my consigliere and the more disciplined half of our two-woman study group for the Texas Bar Exam," Price said.
Rogers is survived by her husband, Roy G. Rogers; her parents, Mary and George Shankle Sr.; a brother, George Shankle, Jr., and sister-in-law, Jessica Shankle; her nephews, Nuh and Tristian; her mother-in-law, Katrina Rogers; her grandparents, Ethel Beck and Viola Shankle; and many other relatives and friends.

Gear Review
Confidence level up
Pros: Good edging, good smearing
Cons: Heel cup shape
Memo: Sole (Stealth C4) feels somewhat softer than their Onyxx rubber used for Anasazi Velcro version. I like it because C4 feels more gripping than Onyxx. But you'll decide that for yourself.
Heel cup leaves some space in back. It could be just me.
Overall, this is a wonderful pair of shoes.

AboutHOW ARE ARTISTS, DESIGNERS, AND CRITICAL THINKERS ADDRESSING THE NATURE OF NOW? Lighthouse's thought-provoking conference of contemporary culture, Improving Reality, returns this September for a spectacular fourth edition.Improving Reality is a one-day conference that brings together an international community of artists, thinkers and makers to share and experience groundbreaking art and ideas of the present. This year's theme is Visibility is a Trap. It is a visceral response to the tension between the tendency to share our lives in public, and our desire and right for more privacy. With a line up of acclaimed international speakers and performers a who's who of the now Improving Reality 2014 addresses the coming of immediacy, the aesthetics of disappearance and the performance of visibility. In light of the Snowden revelations, we now know that the international security agencies have been spying on the private communications of almost everyone on the planet. The web as we know it is no more. Social media like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram have changed from symbols of social progress to weapons of mass surveillance. Improving Reality will take aim at the complex issues at hand. We are excited to announce the speakers and performers who will feature in our 2014 line-up. Edging more toward festival than conference, this year we place a greater emphasis on experiencing artistic work and include electronic music from composer and sound artist Holly Herndon and the screening of a new moving image artwork by Design Studio Metahaven. We are thrilled to also announce the participation of Professor of Media Arts John Armitage, artist Jananne Al-Ani, artist and writer Susan Schuppli, New York-based Social Media Theorist, Nathan Jurgenson, Founding Director of Edgeryders Nadia El-Imam and groundbreaking artist Lawrence Abu Hamdan. Date: Thursday 4 September 2014 Registration open from: 11.15am Event start time: 12pm Event end time: 6pm Price: £20.00 full price / £10.00 concession Venue: Brighton Dome Studio Theatre, 29 New Road, Brighton BN1 1UG

25 year old woman | Allston, MA, USA | Seeking men 23-28 within 20 miles
Hi! :)
Hello from a Minnesotan transplant who moved out here last year for school and work. I love Boston, despite my preference for chicken wild rice soup over clam chowder. I'm friendly and hard-working, and I'm happiest when I'm busy. I love my job as a middle school math teacher, and conveniently, I also love corny math jokes. In my free time, I like to run, do yoga, cook, sew, and read. My favorite sport is soccer, and I'm hoping to join a social sports league soon. I like going to movies, eating out (or in!), and hanging out with friends. My ideal partner would be a guy who has similar interests, is well-rounded, is motivated in his career and life, cares about his friends and family, and doesn't mind a little romance now and then. Looking to meet new people, make some new friends, and enjoy life. Thanks for reading. :)

It's ironic, but the only reason I have this...
It's ironic, but the only reason I have this profile here is so I can find a woman who will give me a reason to take it down. Yeah, I know, I don't get it either. I like where I live but I also work in a profession that is in high demand throughout the state so I'm not above relocating and living closer to where you are if I have to. I'm very personable and easy to kid around with. I can always find something to laugh about but I know when to be serious. I'm honest and even when no one is looking I do the right thing. I like doing all the same things everyone else on here says they like except I'm not afraid to admit to the occasional couch potato-ing. I like to read a lot. I go for long, long rides on my bike and I like the quiet. I don't have a specific type of woman I am looking for but I do know that she's tall, someone I can care for, do goofy touristy stuff with, take hiking, out to dinner, sit on the beach with or maybe kick a soccer ball back and forth with and eventually call my best friend. I hope I find her quick. I don't really like being on here so reply to my email already!

Carlos Boozer scored 19 points, including 11 straight in the fourth quarter, and the Chicago Bulls closed out a six-game road trip with a 93-89 victory over the Utah Jazz on Friday night. Nate Robinson added 18 points for the Bulls, who rebounded nicely from a 32-point loss in Denver 24 hours earlier. Al Jefferson had a season-high 32 points for Utah, scoring the first eight in the fourth period to give the Jazz a 77-73 lead. Boozer, plagued by foul trouble early, got rolling with about 5 minutes remaining against his former team. His layup tied it at 83 with 2:29 left and he scored the next five from the free throw line, including a pair with 27 seconds left for an 88-85 Bulls lead. Randy Foye's layup pulled Utah to 88-87 with 22 seconds left, but the Bulls sealed it at the foul line.

I am seeing the same thing with my 1.8L LS.
28 to 29 mpg on 95% highway driving.
Took it back to the dealer and they found nothing wrong with it.
They said I had to wait 5000 miles for break in to see the mpg.
If you believe this I have some oceanfront propery in Iowa to sell you!
I always get the EPA HW mpg rating on my vehicles and this car is a bust.
GM has major problems here.
I've also had my 1.4l turbo cruze for over 3000 miles now.
I too am only averaging 30.5 mpg on an 80% highway mile commute.
I'm not happy with the mileage but the car is great otherwise!
Do you live in a state where it's really cold? I noticed even in my old car, which was a 4.0L I got maybe 17.3 average in the winter and 23.1 average in the summer, which was mostly because gas had more alcohol in it than in summer months. Gas also matters in this, I only put premium in my cars and it honestly works. Also it matters how you drive it, if you coast then hit the gas, instead of lightly tapping to keep yourself at a constant speed it can really effect the car. I love my Cruze, and I'm getting 33+ on half highway, half city. Good luck though if your Cruze actually has a interior problem! :(

In California and Iowa, Advanced Energy Means Lots of Jobs
The advanced energy industry in California is, not surprisingly, California-sized – over 431,000 workers in more than 40,000 businesses. Rural Iowa has 22,600 advanced energy employees in 1,400 businesses, more workers than in crop production, trucking, or animal production.[read more]
The Benefits of Wind Energy in Iowa: A Valuable, Reliable Crop for This Agricultural State
Iowa wind continues to blow away critics of the potential for clean energy to lead to economic growth. Governor Branstad announced that MidAmerican Energy plans to add 67 wind turbines in Adams and O'Brien counties by the end of 2015, equaling 162 megawatts of new wind generation capacity.[read more]
Wind Energy in Iowa: Once Upon a Prairie
Wind energy in Iowa means jobs, but not just in manufacturing. According to the Iowa Wind Energy Association, Iowa employs 6,000 to 7,000 in all-wind related employment. This ranks Iowa third in the nation in employment related to the wind energy industry.[read more]
Explaining Iowa's Credit for Early Action under the Clean Power Plan
Iowa's target under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) proposed Clean Power Plan would reduce carbon pollution by 16% by 2030. Iowa would reduce emissions from existing power plants from 1,552 to 1,301 lbs/MWh (the amount of carbon emitted per each unit of power produced).[read more]
Iowa Ruling Shows the Way to Third-Party Solar Without Legislation
A ruling by the Iowa Supreme Court in July showed how third party solar might get the go-ahead even without legislation. In 2011, the city of Dubuque contacted Eagle Point Solar to install a PV system on a city building. Since public entities can't benefit from tax credits, third-party ownership translates into lower costs.[read more]
Turning Wind Energy into a Waltz
It might seem inevitable now that Fort Madison, Iowa, would become a production site for a substantial supply of wind turbine blades. Wind, after all, has always been in the air in that state for as long as Americans can remember.[read more]
Small modular reactors in Iowa?
The land of Iowa - home of hogs, corn, windmills, and... SMRs (i.e., small modular reactors). Or at the least, that last part may be true pending a proposal before the Iowa Legislature (HF 561) is passed, allowing for among other things, recovery of costs while construction is in progress on nuclear projects (known as "CWIP" or "...[read more]
Iowa E85 Sales Up 43% In 2010

Three more states weigh in for nuclear energy
Legislative action taking place in Missouri, Indiana, and Iowa The promise of carbon emission free electricity may be realized in three states that previously had few prospects for pursuing it. On Feb 23 a Missouri House committee endorsed legislation that would allow utilities to charge customers for a portion of the costs of building...[read more]
States grapple with nuclear energy
Experience varies widely What's a state legislature to do? The President earlier this month went to Maryland, which already had two nuclear reactors and is planning a third, to announce he's granting an $8.3 billion loan guarantee to two more new nuclear reactors in Georgia. That's two states down, 48 to go. Don't hold your breath...[read more]
Our Tax Dollars at Work
First off, a couple of announcements. After being able to stay at home for the past two months, I have a very heavy travel schedule over the next two weeks. My participation here will probably be limited. I am off to Seattle tomorrow, on to the Netherlands from there, will visit Switzerland and Germany, back to the U.S. mainland, on to...[read more]

Shot by photographer Jeff Grewe with Canon 5D Mark I and Mark II cameras, the video is made from several series of still images. Accompanied by music from "The Shining", the images...[read more]
Elevance mulls Iowa biorefinery

In an application filed by Elevance late last month to the Iowa Dept. of...[read more]
Hansen stands by coal train/death train analogy
In his final testimony submitted to the Iowa Utilities Board on the proposed coal-fired power plant in Iowa, NASA's James Hansen used a very provocative metaphor about the trains that deliver coal: If we cannot stop the building of more coal-fired power plants, those coal trains will be death trains — no less gruesome than if they were...[read more]

"In that case I do wish that the EPA would take Global Warming seriously. A 30% improvement, by 2030, in just the coal burning CO2 emissions is far too little. I think that the official position was that the improved efficiency was not intended to imply a reduction in the coal industry's output. That is plain ridiculous. If ALL the USA's coal burning ceased, and all 1000 million tons of US coal ..."

"Bruce It's the irony, and it's like this: The Church has been riddicled too many time in the past, denigrating its moral authority, by non-republicans (I am now using terminology similar to the poster's own). For me to now take a non-republican as anything other ..."

Have you used gloss medium before? It's a clear acrylic paint that is great for sealing two-dimensional projects. I was cleaning out the laundry room and came across an old bottle of acrylic gloss medium and varnish. Have you ever used this stuff? It's awesome! It's essentially glue wrapped up in a paint bottle, and so easy to apply with a paintbrush. And when it dries it … [Read more...]
Aluminum Foil Painting
Why stop with paper when you can paint on egg cartons, fabric, and wood? I love digging around my cabinets and recycling bin for substrates other than paper, and aluminum foil became the basis of yesterday's second painting experiment. (The first was Drippy Gravity Painting). Foil wrapped around a piece of cardboard. And securely taped. N chose blue and orange paint. … [Read more...]
