Hello! It was finally time I have changed site's Twitter account to a one I could actually control. Here it is, follow us at @iheartemilienet!
(I was away for Holidays, so I couldn't post this earlier, sorry about that!)
I have worked very hard for the past couple of days on the site's new look and here it is! Hope you like it, it was designed by me. Gallery also has a matching look. Let me know what you think. Tomorrow I hope to add photos to the gallery from the last couple of months.
Hello I heart Emilie visitors! My name is Monika and I am the new owner of this fansite. I'm very excited to start working on it and I hope to bring you the latest news about Emilie, as well as update gallery with new photos.
Thank you Kayla for letting me adopt the site.
Stay tuned – news are on the way :)
Hey all! I'm so sorry for no updates on here since November and I had some family stuff in December, but I'm back now and I'll get caught up on everything soon, including finishing Roswell captures. For now just browse around and come back soon. :)
Hi all! I Heart Emilie is finally back and as you can see there's a new look here on the main page as well as the gallery. Huge thank you to Kimberly for creating these beautiful looks for the site. Hope you all love them as much as me!
I'll be updating the sidebar soon and check back for OUaT caps the coming week.
Hi everyone! My name is Mette and I'm the new owner here at I Heart Emilie…I want to thank Aniek for letting me adopt this site! I can't wait to start posting news, uploading pictures and all the latest on Emilie. :)
Hello fellow Emilie fans! My name is Isabelle, and as Aniek already told you, I am one of the new owners here at I Heart Emilie. I've been making fansites for a few years now, and all my other sites can be found at my collective here. For my first update here, I have a brand new gorgeous layout for y'all, made by my very good friend Amanda – isn't it gorgeous? Both Aniek and I absolutely love it, and we hope you will like it as well. Don't hesitate to leave a comment with your thought – we would love to hear your opinions!
We have a lot of exciting plans for this site, and I can't wait to start working on it properly. I will begin to work on the content of this site tonight, as we want to expand the site with in-depth information, media and graphics, fan interact and much more. We will also try to retrive some of the many pages that disapperead from this site a while back – I think it happend during a server crash -, including an icon archive, wallpapers, career information etc. If there's anything in particular you would like us to add, then go a head and comment below! We will do our very best to furfil any requests.
Stay tuned for a media update tonight already, as well as a galore of more updates this coming week! I have a bunch of HQ appearances photos, OUaT promotionals and more to add. For now, enjoy the stunning new layout!
Great news: I've been given permission by Gertie to merge all content from Oh Emilie to this site. It shouldn't take very long and I'll mention here when the merging is complete.
As you can see, the site has a beautiful new design. Thanks to Purple Haze for creating it.
There's a lot to do on the site and I decided to start by adding photos from missing events to the gallery. Right now, 2006 is about halfway done and I hope to finish it soon. Since I'm uploading so many photos every day, I might not always mention on here what I've done. To stay up to date, please follow I Heart Emilie on Twitter.
Let me know what you think of the changes to the site!

Artist, Huginn Arason and curator, Shauna Laurel Jones participate in a gallery talk in relation with the exhibition Interval. The installation is made in collaboration between artists, Huginn Arason and Andrea Maack.
At the heart of the exhibition are fragrances intended to embody the essence of a museum of the distant future. Maack and Arason present this fragrance as a three-dimensional and architectural experience, a period-room installation which remains flexible in form in order to acknowledge the elusive, atmospheric, and temporal qualities of scent. The featured fragrances, a one-off scents developed specifically for the exhibition at Hafnarhús, is a perfumer's interpretation of the artists' concept, rendered as an olfactory experience. The scent in turn has guided Maack and Arason in determining the nature of the installation.
Interval, Maack and Arason's first collaboration, builds on Maack's background as a visual artist working with scent and on Arason's interest in transforming the role of exhibition space. Here Maack and Arason conceive of the gallery as a setting within which the audience can actively experience the fragrance and the loose series of subjective interpretations contributing to its development and presentation. Unlike the typical period room, Maack and Arason's "period room of the future" is offered not as an authoritative stylistic exemplar but as a highly personal interpretation of the values and tastes of another era. Nor is their period room a hermetically sealed time capsule. As this interior of the future becomes an active interior of the present, the artists pose the riddle of what it means to engage in rituals within anarchic time and space.
The talk takes place in English.

Programmable Attenuators for Wireless Products
Programmable attenuators are. widely used in communication test. systems and instruments for a variety. of applications. The most common. use is in spectrum analyzers and test. receivers to increase the dynamic. range of the instrument or wireless. subsystem. Another typical application. is the use
Intermodulation Distortion in Programmable Attenuators
to be measured. using low distortion programmable multi-tone generators whose. IMD performance must be quite superior. This is discussed in the. two case studies cited here.
Variable Attenuators
: The attenuation can be varied only by a fixed amount (dB) at a time. • Programmable: The attenuation can be programmed in some way. • Direct Reading: The attenuation is set by mean of an external device, such as a rotary dial. The attenuator control variable can be current or voltage, in all cases.

Anyway, I have driver version 184.108.40.206 for WinXP Pro, is this the best for general use? XP installed this driver I guess from Windows update as I had not downloaded anything from Nvidia's site. I downloaded the most recent I could find at Nvidia.com but when I tried to update the driver XP informed me that my current driver was newer. I have not used an Nvidia card since I had a first generation GeForce, from what I can tell this free Quadro is an improvement over the ATI Radeon 8500 I was using. I don't play any video games much, just watch DVDs and do a lot of Photoshop. Did I make the right decision? Should I go back to the ATI? since this Quadro is designed for Open GL mostly? or am I wrong about this? My days are spent exploring the depths of Windows Active Directory and Exchange server, I need help here. Thanks

Let's say you are a special individual (i.e. metahuman or similar to Batman). You kill evil people (i.e. Joker evil) and Batman is now after you because he believes killing is wrong, so you must pay for the crime. How would you handle the situation with Batman? Would you reason with him, argue on ideologies, fight him, try to run away, kill him, find out his secret identity and blackmail him, or come up with something else?
I would never kill an innocent, officer, or hero, even if they where hunting for me. I would try to reason with him first, if he does not let up I will try to get away, if he finds out who I am, then I will blackmail him to leave me alone. Honestly, I think he will still try to apprehend me, but what do you think?

This course in practical and professional ethics helps students develop the skills they need for acting effectively and well in public life. Through close analysis of actual cases, we examine instances of exemplary conduct and learn from moral failures; engage in ethical debate in the classroom and in writing assignments; trace the connections between ethical judgment and specific public policies; and explore the challenges in working across geographical and cultural boundaries. Topics include the meaning of professionalism, the appeal to personal conscience in public decision making, the responsibilities that arise from global interdependence, the problem of "dirty hands," and the ethics of loyalty and dissent in bureaucratic settings. Cases from around the world provide the primary focus of class discussion, supplemented by the writings of Machiavelli and Confucius.

Audio Drama Review: Doctor Who: The Highlanders
Just like the first of the Second Doctor episodes of Doctor Who, only the audio remains for the second serial, "The Highlanders."
In The Highlanders, the Second Doctor (Patrick Troughton) and his companions Ben and Polly find themselves caught in the midst of a war between the British red coats and the Scottish highlanders. The Doctor and his companions have to escape from the British and get back to the TARDIS while also thwarting the plot of a corrupt government barrister who plans to ship captured Scots to brutal slavery on Carribean Islands.
This story isn't as good as Power of the Daleks, but it definitely is worth a listen. This serial features some great comic scenes for Troughton and the Doctor certainly shows some cleverness in this tightly plotted story. This was actually a surprisingly strong story for Polly who in two previous stories I've seen/heard her in, her role was limited to making coffee as serving as a hostage. In this case, she's the one member of the TARDIS not captured and key to their rescue.
This serial was noteworthy for a couple other reasons. After about a third of the First Doctor stories were historicals, Troughton wanted to get away from them, so this would be the last purely historical Dr. Who episode until 1982. Also, this episode introduced the character of Jamie McCrimmon (Frazier Hines) who appeared in more Doctor Who episodes than any other companion.
Overall, this is a historic serial with plenty of fun, swashbuckling action, and the introduction of a great companion in Jamie, so it's definitely worth a listen.

Audio Drama Review: The Power of the Daleks
Last Christmas, Time of the Doctor marked the end of Matt Smith's reign as the Eleventh Doctor, and this fall the BBC will kick off a new series featuring Peter Capaldi in the role. Today, we take a look at the first regeneration from First Doctor William Hartnell to Second Doctor Patrick Troughton, "Power of the Daleks."
Due to the BBC's horrible archival policies in 1960s, this isn't a story people can "watch." This is one of several stories that are completely missing on video and the only way they can be enjoyed is as audio dramas using the TV soundtrack recorded by fans and narration by a star from the series..
Without belaboring the point, in the "Tenth Planet," the last First Doctor story, it was clear that William Hartnell was pretty well played out in the role. The four episode story featured almost no action from the Doctor in the first, second, and the fourth episode, and the third episode was spent with the doctor asleep. The fourth ended with the Doctor changing into Patrick Troughton.
Troughton actually really gets into the role right off the bat. While long time Whovians have seen newly regenerated doctors go through the process of picking out their wardrobe and getting used to new appearances, Troughton was the first and does it quite well. His character is fun and clever. The Second Doctor plays a recorder which is another nice bit of characterization.
Of course, his companions, who were with the First Doctor, are skeptical that this is really the same Doctor, with Ben being far more skeptical than Paulie.
The Second's Doctor's inaugural adventure is a blast. The TARDIS lands in the future on Earth's colony Vulcan where they discover the murdered body of a government official called an examiner. The Doctor assumes the examiner's identity and is determined to uncover why the Examiner was killed and what was going on in the colony.
In the course of his investigation, the Doctor comes across his most dangerous enemies, the Daleks. One of their ships has crash landed and a scientists is studying the dead Daleks. The Doctor wants them destroyed but finds out to his horror that the scientist who discovered the Daleks is actually trying to revive one and that he succeeds.
The revived Dalek, whose gun armed has been removed insists, "I am your servant." The Doctor of course doesn't buy it and is trying to stop the crazy scientists from reviving more Daleks. However, the whole Dalek issue is caught in a web of political intrigue which has more than one person thinking they can use the three revived Daleks as pawns. Some consider the small numbers of Daleks to be minor matter, but the Doctor warns that one is enough to destroy the entire base.
This is a wonderful serial that really works on every level: it has intrigue, mystery, suspense, and fantastic sci fi action. This is a story that illustrates the true power of audio story telling. The early writers of Dr. Who had great imagination, but lacked in special effects. That's no problem here. The music and the dialogue tell the story powerfully.
The story has some genuinely scary moments that are really brought home by the audio. Of course, the Daleks are up to evil and two separate episodes end with Daleks chanting and there are few things more scary than a group of Daleks chanting, "We will get our power! We will get our power!" as they circle the scientist brought them back to life.
The scientist, Dr. Lesterson also has a fascinating character arc as the Daleks true nature becomes more apparent and things go from bad to worse. His final scene is the last episode of the serial is just haunting and fascinating at the same time.
Bottom line: "The Power of the Daleks" packs a powerful punch with a tone that's often a bit dark, but also brilliantly conceived and executed.
Rating: 5.0 out of 5.0.
The Power of the Daleks is available at Audible.

Audio Review: Dr. Who: Marco Polo
Dr. Who has become a 21st phenomena with the series revival growing to even greater acclaim than the previous stories. Yet, it still has its roots in the 1960s where the first two Doctors played by William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton gave the character his roots. The stories of the Doctor and his companions were originally produced as half hour programs that were serialized stories as opposed to the one hour usually self-contained today.
I've watched a decent amount of first doctor material. I've seen the first three serials with Hartnell as well another, "The Aztecs." News came out that two previously lost serials are now available for purchase both starring the second doctor Patrick Troughton, but that leaves nearly a hundred episodes of the show lost, effecting twenty-six different serials including the last two Hartnell stories and first seven with Troughton.
While hopefully more of these videos will emerge, Dr. Who fans don't have to wait to at least enjoy the stories because sound tracks of early Dr. Who episodes, recorded by fans at the time the series aired, and remastered and re-released by the BBC are available through Audible. So, I'm going to listen to all the Dr. Who missing episodes I can't see beginning with Marco Polo and see how the audio format helps or hurts.
"Marco Polo" is the fourth Dr. Who Serial and ran seven episodes from February to April 4 and follows after the events of "The Edge of Destruction" which left the TARDIS damaged and finds the Doctor and the TARDIS crew (Ian Chesterton, Barbara Wright, and Susan Foreman) stranded on top of a snow capped mountain and in danger of freezing to death. However, they encounter several Chinese as well as a Mongol warlord named Tagama who wants them killed. However, the Chinese are led by Marco Polo who saves them and treats them kindly. However, they quickly find that Polo's motives are not entirely pure: He wants to give the TARDIS to Kublia Khan in hopes of securing his own return home to Venice. However, the warlord Tagama has designs on TARDIS of his own.
The audio is narrated by William Russell (who played Chesterton in the series) who shares bits of action that the soundtrack can't pick up. These bits are minor. In some ways, being in an audio format helps this series as the setting is quite ambitious with luscious and ornate Oriental settings. Given the budget of the original show, it's safe for me to say that the theater of the mind will easily beat what 1960s British TV could do in its portrayal of the Khan's palaces.
This serial also seemed reminiscent in its slower pacing of radio serials I've listened from the 1940s and '50s which often had more deliberate pacing overall with cliffhangers built in to keep the audience's attention.
Another big difference from the modern Dr. Who is that other than involving time travel, this story has very little science fiction. If there were a modern Dr. Who/Marco Polo stories there'd be ghosts, space aliens, or zombies thrown in. Instead what we get is a great historical adventure with its share of twists but just an adventure happening in medieval China.
The character of Marco Polo makes this story unique from many early serials. While in other programs like "The Aztecs, " characters like Tagama scheme and turn initial allies of the TARDIS crew into enemies, this is a lot more complex as Polo is enlightened. He isn't superstitious, bloodthirsty, and works to save the crew despite requests to kill them. His broad experiences have made him willing to consider anything including their claim that the TARDIS is a flying caravan, which is why he stole it. He feels bad about it too. Polo's moral struggle really does create some solid dramatic tension.
Less interesting is the overused trope of the girl about to enter into an arranged marriage that doesn't want to do it, and the convenient plot device used to resolve it, though they did do a decent job making the character likable and someone you care about.
While the serial isn't great, it's good for what it is: a fun historic adventure serial. It works well with the audio format and for now, it's the only way to encounter the classic Marco Polo story line unless you want to read the novelization.

Radio Drama Set Review: Father Brown Mysteries Vol. 4
The fourth volume of the Father Brown Mysteries from Colonial Radio Theater collects four more G.K. Chesterton stories. More importantly, the middle two stories have been previously adapted either in the 1970s British TV series or the 1980s BBC radio series.
In the "Actor and the Alibi", Father Brown is called in by a theater company to calm down a temperamental Italian Catholic actress and finds himself investigating the murder of the theater owner who most of the company holds to be a scoundrel. This solution as well as the distortion of reality that seems to have engulfed the situation is remarkable. Unless you have the sagacity of Father Brown, there's little chance of solving it.
"The Worst Crime in the World" has Father Brown concerned about a young man that might marry his niece. A strange visit to the castle-home of his reclusive father does little to allay his concerns, particularly when the young man seems to have disappeared.
"The Insoluble Problem" is a classic story that finds Father Brown and Flambeau stumbling on an impossible murder after Father Brown is called the house while Flambeau is driving to a museum protect valuable jewels. Unlike all the weird murders Father Brown has solved, is this one truly insoluble? Really, this was a pretty clever concept that plays quite nicely with classic tropes of the mystery genre. I'm surprised that I haven't seen this clever plot used more often.
"The Eye of Apollo" is a classic story which pits Father Brown against the founder of a sun-worshiping cult who has convinced a strong-headed wealthy woman to follow his way. When she dies, it appears to have been accident with the cult leader having a perfect alibi. The actual solution has a great ironic twist that's pure Chesterton.
This is the best quality Father Brown set Colonial has put out yet. J.T. Turner has Father Brown down pat and M.J. Elliott is adept at giving listeners all the life and pleasure of the original stories. One thing I noted in this collection is how Turner would take some of Chesterton's artful descriptive commentary and put it in the mouth of his characters.
Overall, this is a faithful and high quality adaptation that is a must for fans of Father Brown and of classic mystery.

Audio Drama Review: Hilary Caine Mysteries, Box Set 1
In the Hilary Caine Mysteres, MJ Elliot, known for his adaptations of classic Sherlock Holmes and Father Brown programs created an original comedy mystery series for Jim French Productions in Seattle.
It's the 1930s and Hilary Caine (played by Australian Karen Heaven) works as the house detective for the tabloid Tittle Tattle Magazine. She goes and solves crimes and they tell the true story (or something approximating the true story) in the pages of the tabloid Tittle Tattle magazine. She usual assists Inspector Julius Finn (Randy Hoffmeyer) or is it the other way around?
Hilary has a great line of patter that simply has to be listened to in order to be believed. The comedy is priceless. Consider this example:
Hilary: I was having with my friend Hercules Poyrot -
Finn: I believes that Hercules Poirot. And I believe he's fictional.
Hilary: Nonsense. If he wasn't real, who was I having lunch with?
And this line:
Hillary: She made me furious when she said English people are repressed.
Finn: You did a good job hiding it.
Another time when asked about her religious affiliation, she declared she was "a lapsed skeptic." However, just because she makes statements that could come from Gracie Allen and has an imagination that seems to struggle to under the difference between reality and fictions, she shouldn't be underestimated. She's got a keen mind and manages to unravel some clever mysteries. MJ Elliot and Jim French successfully captured the spirit of the 1930s screwball mystery comedies. I was also somewhat reminded of Barbara Britton's portrayal of Pam North on television, although Hillary Caine's stories are much more British.
The nine mysteries in this collection are mostly solid though there are a couple that seemed a little too easy to figure. One of them reminded me a little bit of the Father Brown Story, "The Quick One" in it's set up though it's denouement was different.
Overall, the people who brought us the Further Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and The Adventures of Harry Nile have once again brought fans of classic mysteries a wonderful character to enjoy, so I heartily recommend this collection.
The collection is available at Jim French Production's website for $29.95 on CD and $15.00 for audio downloads. It is also available on Audible at a discount or for free as part of an Audible trial offer.

Audio Drama Review: Father Brown, Volume 3
In this Third Volume of the Father Brown Mysteries, Colonial Radio Theatre takes the stories from The Incredulity of Father Brown and the Scandal of Father Brown, two of the latter collection. Colonial an admirable job with the source material:
"The Oracle of the Dog": A man is killed in his summer house and the strange behavior of a dog is seen as a key clue. Colonial had to do some work on this story as an adaptation. In the original Chesterton story, Father Brown doesn't visit the scene of the crime, but rather solves the case based on clues given him by someone else. Thus, it came off as more of Chesterton's criticism of literary treatment of canines in murder mysteries. Thanks to Colonial, this story comes alive while still getting Chesterton's point across.
"The Miracle of Moon Crescent": In America, Father Brown warns four skeptics of that a well-known in millionaire is in danger after telling a story of his encounter with a superstitious Irishmen. They scoff at him, but when the millionaire is found murdered with no reasonable scientific or psychological solution presents itself, the skeptics begin to doubt themselves and begin to consider a supernatural solution. J.T. Turner did a great job writing the adaptation and captured the subtleties of the satirical elements of the story. The only thing that marred this one was that the accents seemed quite a bit off. Still, a worthwhile presentation of a great story.
"The Green Man": A wealthy admiral is found murdered in full dress uniform by two golfers and it's a classic whodunit. The story begins in medias res with Father Brown speaking to one of the suspects before the final denoument, a kind of interesting twist. The story is standard whodunit fare handled quite capably by Colonial.
"The Quick One": A classic story of murder in a hotel bar of a a Tory curmudgeon. Father Brown insists that that the key to the case is finding an unknown man who stopped in for a drink and didn't even bother to finish it. (i.e. The quick one.) The mystery was well and faithfully adapted. A couple weeks ago, I criticized the British TV version for trying to mitigate Father Brown's views of the deceased as a heroic figure who was the one of the last men who could have saved England. Colonial avoided any revisionism in that regards. In one way, they actually improved on Chesterton with an edit. They moved a line that Father Brown delivered in the middle of the original story to the end when Father Brown was talking to his policeman companion on a train. Where it was originally written, it kind of seemed like rambling dictum that readers could easily pass over on their way to the solution. However, put at the end, it offers a vital explanation as to why a Priest would always be involving himself in Homicide investigations. This is probably the best Father Brown episode that Colonial's done so far.
Overall rating for the collection: 4.5

Audio Drama Review: Colonial Radio Theatre's 2nd Father Brown Collection
Last year, I reviewed Colonial Radio Theatre's first Father Brown collection adapting classic stories from G.K. Chesterton. I was pleased recently to finally download and listen to their second collection. As with the first collection, production values remain high with quality acting, and well-done sound effects.
This is a tougher collection for the adapters in some ways as two of the four stories they adapted are challenging ones to dramatize, but overall they carried it off quite well.
The Flying Stars: It's crime time at Christmastime. Father Brown is one of several visitors to a wealthy English home, including a young socialist where a valuable jewels called, "The Flying Stars" make an admirable target for thieves. And thieves strike-during a pantomime event. This one was a bit slow getting to the crime as it dragged through preparations for the pantomime. However, the story as written by Chesterton was equally slow-paced. As slow it was, it was also necessary for the character development of Flambeau and Colonial does listeners a favor by actually showing Flambeau reform. They also did a nice job setting up a transition to the next story.
Point of a Pin: Noisy construction workers are waking Father Brown up every morning as they work on an apartment building, but a potential union strike or lock out threatens to stop construction. The owner of the construction company lays off his workers and then is murdered. A threatening note points to union radicals as the likely culprit but Father Brown has other ideas. This was a lot of fun for me, particularly because "Point of a Pin" is a lesser known and later Father Brown story that I hadn't read yet and Colonial did a great job in bringing this baffling story to radio.
The Three Tools of Death: Along with "The Blue Cross" this may be one of the best Father Brown mysteries. I actually based much of my Father Brown chapter in my book, All I Needed to Know I Learned from Columbo on this story. However, it's not always gotten the respect it deserved. In the 1970s, the BBC ruined the story when they adapted Father Brown for television because the original story was so politically incorrect. Colonial didn't try to airbrush the story. They let it speak for itself and produced a faithful and well-done adaptation of this mystery that centers around Britain's leading optimist and teetotaler being found murdered. At first, there are no weapons found, and then all the sudden, there are too many. Father Brown says something's wrong with the crime scene, that all these weapons are "not economical." Colonial does a great job telling the story. They even preserved the post-solution ending. It features Father Brown, after having unraveled one of the greatest mysteries in the history of detective fiction, going on about his rounds as a clergyman. That right there tells you all you need to know about Father Brown.
The Invisible Man: A young man wants to marry a beautiful woman, but finds her being menaced by an invisible man. Threatening notes are left, but no one seems to be around. A threatening poster was put up, but no one was seen in the vicinity. Finally, a man is murdered under the watchful eyes of a man who swore that he saw no one go in. What's going on? This story like, "The Sign of the Broken Sword" is one of Chesterton's most influential stories. It's also, like "The Sign of the Sword" in that it's incredibly hard to adapt based on the bizarre ending that Chesterton gave the original story. Colonial tries to work around this by having Father Brown narrate the story, which really doesn't work all that well. Still, it's a good story and other than Colonial's attempt to deal with Chesterton's quirky ending, the adaptation is thoroughly enjoyable as well.
Overall Rating for the Set: 4.0 out of 5.0 stars.
Colonial turned out another great Father Brown set.
Audio Drama Review: Perry Mason and the Case of the Howling Dog
In the Case of the Howling Dog, a man approaches Perry Mason with two seemingly unrelated requests. First, he has questions about the requirements for drafting a will including whether the will would be valid if he were executed for murder. Then he complains about his neighbor's howling dog which is keeping him up at night.
Mason takes action on the howling dog, contacting the district attorney's office. The neighbor insists there's no problem and that Perry's client is mentally unstable. Then Mason's client disappears with the neighbor's wife and later on, the neighbor himself is found murdered. Mason has to unravel the sordid affairs of the dead man, find the client he's supposed to represent, and unmask the real killer.
The Case of the Howling Dog is the best installment yet of the Colonial Radio Theatre's Perry Mason series. The mystery is incredibly complex and engaging with an amazing amount of twists and turns. At 78 minutes, this is a fast paced thriller. Also, this is only the second of the four to feature actual courtroom scenes (The other being "The Case of the Sulky Girl.") CRT did a much better job with the courtroom drama than in The Case of the Sulky Girl as the court scenes in The Case of the Howling Dog were more vibrant and engaging. Fans of legal dramas will appreciate Mason's brilliant legal manuvering in the program's climax.
Throughout the episode, as has been the usual case in these shows, Mason walks a thin line ethically. When confronted over this by Paul Drake, he expresses contempt for lawyers who wouldn't skate on thin ice for a client. Certainly, the CRT's Perry Mason series wouldn't be nearly as entertaining if he didn't.'

Audio Drama Review: King Solomon's Mines
Before there was Indiana Jones, there was Allan Quartermain. King Solomon's Mines by H. Rider Haggard introduced readers to that intrepid adventurer in 1885.
Hollywood has never quite gotten the story right, as the temptation to add a romantic subplot and change details is irresistable. However, the Colonial Radio Theatre's production of the story starring Jerry Robbins was fantastic and faithful to the original story.
The plot begins when Quartermain is approached on a boat by a Captain Good and Sir Henry Curtis to engage in a search for Sir Henry's lost brother, who was last seen years before searching for King Solomon's mine. Quartermain agrees to go provided that a stipend is guaranteed for his son should anything happen to him and a share of the treasure in the unlikely event he survives.
To follow the trail of Sir Henry's Brother, the trio must trek across treacherous terrain through unknown parts of Africa. A native African named Umbopa goes along for the journey, but it's obvious he's hiding something from the rest of the group.
Once again, Colonial Radio Theatre shows the power of radio, as you're transported back to Victorian Africa and the extremes of weather on the journey to King Solomon's Mine. CRT successfully captures the mystery, wonder, and excitement of this unforgetable story that features epic battles, legendary treasures, and political intrigue. This is a fantastic production for fans of Men's Adventure.

Zorro Comes to Radio
If you grew up in the 1950s, when you think of Zorro as Guy Williams in the Disney series. Or if you grew up in the late 80s and early 90s, Duncan Regehr may have provided your vision of Zorro. Others may remember Antonio Banderas as Zorro and for many classic film buffs, it is without a doubt Douglas Fairbanks who defines the character in the silent film version.
Zorro did make it to radio in 1957, in a short-lived serial based on the Curse of Capistrano, however only two episodes of this series survive.
Zorro has been interpreted and reinterpreted so many times throughout the years that it's hard to remember that Zorro originiated in the pulp magazines in stories by Johnston McCulley. may have passed Zorro by for the most part, modern producers of radio drama have picked up the torch.
The Colonial Radio Theatre brought two of these stories to radio in Zorro and the Pirate Raiders and Zorro Rides Again.
In Zorro and the Pirate Raiders, the commandante of the pueblo, Captain Ramon, forms an alliance with cutthroat pirates to raid the pueblo and split the booty. Ramon also orders the pirates to kill Don Diego de la Vega and kidnap his bride-to-be. Zorro thwarts the attack on Don Diego with the help of other caballeros and then pursues the pirates across the sea.
In Zorro Rides Again, Zorro has retired after The Pirate Raiders but is forced to return when an imposter begins to commit injustices in the name of Zorro. Zorro must clear his name and find the imposter before friends turn against him and the government executes.
These Zorro productions are superb swashbuckling adventures. Each feature length adventure was filled with action, adventure, and surprise twists throughout the story. The sound effects were amazing, and help to transport you back to Old California.
There were differences between this production and most Zorro adaptations. The biggest was that Zorro had allies: twenty caballeros who fought alongside him. This is a stark difference between modern productions which have Zorro fighting a lone battle against evil, which has become the trend. However, the CRT's version of Zorro remains faithful to the original vision of McCulley.
Zorro and his caballeros are courageous and gallant, living by a code of honor. McCulley's vision of Zorro was as a North American version of the knights of old and this really shows through in the Colonial Radio Theater production. The cast from the stars to their supporting players were all excellent. In particular, Sam Donato shined in the role of Sergeant Garcia. Oftentimes, the role of the Sergeant in Zorro is often played as buffoon or coward, but Donato's portrayal was more nuanaced, and there was a lot more to Sergeant Garcia than meets these eyes.
There were very few flaws in these productions, and they were a result of being faithful to the source material, so I can't complain about them. I will say that when a radio drama features a fight between two guys with knives in their mouths, the theater of the mind has to work overtime to supply the images.
Overall, these are great productions that represent Zorro as he was meant to be and provide hours of fun and excitement.

Neoseeker : Games : Nintendo DS : Role-Playing : Fantasy : Super Fossil Fighters
Game InfoIn this dino-tastic sequel, players get some hands-on time to hunt and clean fossils, and revive and battle Vivosaurs. A fossil park is hosting a large-scale tournament in which competitors enter Vivosaurs created from dinosaur fossils into competition. Fossil Fighters from all over the world compete against one another to find out who is the best Fossil Fighter.
- Players excavate and clean fossils. New Giant Fossil Rocks (containing complete Dinosaur fossils) and Odd Fossil Rocks (which are two-sided) add to the fun of the cleaning process.
- Once the fossils have been cleaned, they can be revived into Vivosaurs, which players can then arrange into teams for battles. The better the fossils have been cleaned, the more powerful the Vivosaurs are in battle.
- Strategy is key in battles. Players must put forth teams of three Vivosaurs, then rotate their positions to maximize their power advantage over opponents.
- New "Super Evolver" Vivosaurs evolve into new forms with the help of golden fossils.
- Players can compete in matchmaking battles or upload their best team to see how it fares against others. Players can also download additional Vivosaurs and events.
- Using DS Download Play, one player who has the game can link up wirelessly with another Nintendo DS owner within range so both can cooperate to expertly clean fossils together.

OT: Is it really that common for married couples to keep finances seperate?
we only combined our accounts after we were married, and I'm in charge of them. my husband is bad with money and was in 5K of credit card debt when we met.
So our paychecks and everything goes into our joint account and thats where our bills and such comes out of. BUT I have a seperate savings account. I have anout 40K in it and I had it before we were married. It's inheritance and savings over the years. I consider that our emergency fund. I'm planning on putting him as my trustee if anything should happen to me, but there is no reason why he should need access to the account as long as I'm around.
Our sweet boy Abrahm *12.4.12*
Our second sweet boy Owen *6.20.14*
When we first got married we had joint checking and separate savings for individual needs, but we learned that we have such similar ideals on spending that the separate savings werent needed. Now im a SAHM, and DH makes the money and i still make all the financial decisions. It just works for us.
we each have own checking and savings but our names are on both accounts. its just easy to keep track of money to not have 2 people taking out of it and the other not knowing till later in day.

We have a joint checking account that is basically his allowance to do with as he wants and I have a checking account that most of the money goes into so I can pay everything. We have a joint savings as well. He has no clue and doesnt want one about our bills. I have tried to get him involved. He can not handle his own little account with no responsibility to pay for any type of bill so I do all of it without any input from him. At least I dont have to argue over any of it with him. I do wish he would take an interest though and have an idea of what everything costs and where all the money goes. I use Quicken to keep track of all the accounts and love it.

As of Wednesday, November 9, 2011
© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
During his tenure as a football coach and boys and girls basketball coach, Steven Cole has had his share of players sign college scholarships.
But Tuesday's midday signing ceremony in the Forest Park High media center was a special moment for Cole and his wife, Natalie.
The couple stood by as their daughter, Ashlee, a senior guard on the Lady Panthers basketball team, signed a scholarship with Div. I High Point University in North Carolina. Several of her teammates and former coaches were on hand to witness the ceremony.
"I don't really have words to describe this," Steven Cole said. "She has been working since she was six years old to get to this point. I can't tell you how happy I am right now."
The younger Cole, who was the Clayton News Daily Clayton County Player of the Year last season, has been a four-year starter for the Lady Panthers, who reached the Class AAAA title game last season. She averaged 18 points last season for the Region 4-AAAA champions.
"You couldn't ask for a better gift in raising your child, and also having the opportunity to coach your child," Steven Cole said.
Ashlee had several offers, but decided on High Point, which is a member of the Big South Conference, because of its proximity.
"It is far enough to be away from home, but also close enough for my parents to come see me play," she said. "I'm very excited about my opportunity at High Point. First, I'm looking forward to this season."

Cycling in A Cemetery : Bukit Cina, Melaka
If you are into off road cycling, you might want to consider cycling in Bukit China the next time you're in Melaka. Of course, this is a sport that won't appeal to everyone. While the windy, gravel-strewn and undulating trails are perfect for thrill-seekers, they'll terrify some inexperienced sods who might jolly well crash into a 400-year old grave. Yes, you heard me correctly!
Bukit Cina is a cemetery set on top an ancient hill . While some folks might think I'm irreverent or disrespectful for suggesting something like this, let me just say that the bike trail offers a spectacular view of the town and the watery Straits of Melaka. Plus, the trail, overstrewn with trees will give you an all time high if you're a seasoned biker. So if you're super-superstitious, I'd suggest you try another sport.
Equipment: A well serviced Mountain Bike ( check the bloody brakes! ), helmet ( in case you crash into a grave), gloves, protective eye wear, water bottles or other hydration equipment, mosquito repellent, etc.
A'Famosa Golf Resort

Mountain Biking in Melaka
Now, for those of you who know me, I'm into all kinds of sports. Off road biking is no exempt, I've got all kinds of scars to show for it. Though I'm not keen to collect another, I'm putting 2 bike links here to remind myself to do this the next time I'm in Melaka. That'll oughta work off the fats accumulated from the eating binge there.
A'Famosa Golf Resort
The golf course comprises three distint nines that all play to a par-36... They play to varying degrees of difficulty... The Rocky Nine has an abudance of boulers outcrops... Playing to 3216m from the black tees, some of the holes are located along the NS Hiway... Playng to 3220m, the Palm Nine is peppered with tress along its fairways... The shortest of the nine is the Crocodile Nine at 3156m and plays towards the Waterworld Park... Golfers must be aware of real crocodiles on hole #7...
Equipment: The clubhouse has the noraml men and ladies changing room... It has a pro-shop... For F&B there is the Golfer's Terrace and Bonus Café... Besides these, it has a business centre and an extensive range of conference and banquet facilities for both corporate and social events.

Orna Golf & Country Club
This Taiwanese owned club has 3 nines viz the East, West and North Nines, each playing to 3066m, 3133m and 2796m repectively from the blue tee... The fairway is very undulating with water coming into play in many holes... The 7th, 8th and 9th holes of the East course are particlualr challenging water holes... The greens are also undulating and trickly and 3 puts are the norm...
The club has accommodation for golfers who would like to stay and play... It has both individual rooms as well as bungalow (for up to 6 golfers) for daily stay... The Chinese restaurant (Restaurant OGCC) is highly popular for wedding dinner reception in Melaka...
Equipment: Buggy is on fairway for normal play except when the fairway is very wet after continuous rain... With the very undulating and wide fairway, playing with buggy on track is very demanding on one's physical fitness... In short, you will not enjoy the round of golf if buggy is not on fairway...

Tiara Melaka Golf & Country Club
This 27-holes course is designed by the golf architects Nelson, Wright & Howard... It comprises the Lake Nine, Meadow Nine and the Woodland Nine... Playing to 2936m from the blue tee, the Lake is dominated by large expenses of water which can be very intimidating to high-handicap players... The Meadown plays to 2977m is more open with ferns and flowering plants... The Woodland has a woodland setting which is heavily wooded with many matured trees along the fairways... On the whole it is a nice course to play on...

Ayer Keroh Country Club
Designed by the late Deputy Prime Minister, Tun Ghafar Baba, the 27-holes golf course was carved out of virgin jungle in 1964...

The three nines hug a lake known as the Ayer Keroh Lake which comes into play at quite a few of the holes... There are fair share of bunkers and other obstacles at strategic places, but the course is notorious for the jungle that lines both sides of almost every fairway... It is avery long course by any standard and the cow-grass fairway is metriculously maintained...
Equipment: There is the usual man and lady changing rooms... The golfer's terrance overlooking the swimming pool serves light meals and drinks... Pan West maintains a pro-shop at the club...

I agree with the swarming. Tyson was fast and had a decapitating upper cut. Royce was good at taking a beating but a Tyson beating is like no other. looking at the kimo fight...kimo was laying a beating to him and the only reason Royce won was the ponytail pull to hold him in the armbar.
I would put my money on Tyson. He would've had 50 pounds on him.
I don't know I am waivering on this. Gracie could clinch get a quick trip and end up on top. Then RNC when Tyson rolled.
You give Tyson a training camp with wrestling and bjj defense and he would have smoked him IMO.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akebono_Taro to hose who say Tyson would just out power anything Royce had.
Clinch then guard pull I would have thought.

Valley City State men's basketball coach Jeff Kaminsky announced Monday that St. Cloud Technical and Community College point guard Riley West has signed a letter of intent to attend VCSU and play basketball for the Vikings this fall.
West, a 6-foot Lakeville, Minn., native who just completed his second year of collegiate basketball at St. Cloud Technical and Community College, was a two-year starter and helped lead the team to a 22-6 record in 2013. West averaged 14.5 points and 4.5 assists per game, and shot 34 percent from three-point range and 78 percent on free throws.
Fargo South senior Cassidy Meyers batted in three runs on three hits in Tuesday's early 16-2 win at Valley City before the Hi-Liners took a 3-2 lead but yielded 16 runs in the final three innings for an 18-3 loss.
"We didn't hit much," Hi-Liner senior Masyn Olson said. "We didn't have many fielding errors, they just shelled us. But we're talking better as a team, and our defense is better."
Read this story in Wednesday's Times-Record.
Hi-Liner bats came alive in the sixth inning for a 4-1 home win over Fargo North on Tuesday before stacking 10 fourth-inning runs in the follow-up for a decisive 13-3 triumph.
"We played well after a rocky start," Valley City sophomore Heather Knutson said. "We found a way to hit the ball and extend leads."

Hi-Liner softball, having struggled to capitalize in recent games, scrambled the batting order and won both of Friday's games at Grand Forks Central, taking the first contest 13-3 and the second 15-4.
"We flip-flopped No. 2 through No. 7 in the batting order," Valley City head coach Jason Lindgren said. "They've been in same spots for years, and maybe some got comfortable. We hit better, and we'll find out early this week how our newfangled lineup works against Fargo North and West Fargo."

What's it like being in the audience on Dancing on Ice
What's it like being in the audience on dancing on ice - the main series, (rather than the tour).
What time does the show (ie warm-ups etc) start, what do people do in breaks/intervals, is there a bar/food etc?
Are you allowed to take your mobile in ( I think they're banned on Strictly)
Is it really noisy (and are you made to clap??)
Any info most welcome!
There is lots of information on this thread :)
No bar unless you're with the cast
Phones are allowed but must be switched off before entering the studio, anyone caught using phone gets a warning caught twice and you'll either get chucked out or phone confiscated
You do get told to clap/shout etc
You don't do much during add breaks, warm up guy comes on for a bit before show plus any little VT clips get filmed.
Half time you can leave your seat to use the loo, try not to as queue massive and you might miss getting a donut
You do get ushered about by the staff and have to do exactly as they tell you!
I think it's the same for Strictly. I was offered free tickets to the Wembley event but was warned there were restrictions on what you could do and you had to be there and seated very early, so I declined them.
Reading Tracey's post above, I'm glad I did.
It doesn't sound like that great an experience.
Well it sounds just as horrific as I imagined.
I was lucky enough to be in the audience last week, and it was v much like how it is described in the linked thread above..
It's really interesting to see how the show is put together - stuff like the way the camera guys who do the overhead shots climb up a sort of rope ladder thing and then are up there for the whole show..
In the adverts, various skaters will come on and limber up.. sometimes doing bits of their routine, or just generally stretching, etc. Jayne and Chris are amazing in the sense that close up you can really see their musicality - they stand out, even among the much younger professionals.
It looks as though Gareth/Matt/Shayne/Luke have (or had, with Shayne's exit) a real matey vibe going on.. in the warm ups they were often skating together and larking around and they seem to get on well off-camera. Keith looked as if he was struggling with his injury and after a bit of a warm-up would sit down at the side.
In terms of the routines, they all look a lot more impressive in real life than on telly. Apart from Joe and Samia, who were clearly really struggling (especially Joe, Vicky had to haul him up at one point)
In the break they give you a doughnut - I queued up for mine with Linda Lusardi (who did a previous series of Dancing on Ice) - she was there with her husband and looked really good fun. When the warm-up guy was on, he found out she had some mini sausage rolls with her, took them from her and started distributing them among the audience.
After the break, everyone was really shocked about the Shayne/Matt skate off - it had been assumed it would be Joe/Samia. At the end when people were leaving Luke and Keith were at the edge of the rink chatting to family/friends and also to fans as well.
Was a really fab experience!!

I've been getting a lot of calls about this recently. It's basically just a popup that appears on a persons computer screen while browsing the net. The person then (Most if not all the time) calls the number and then is persuaded to let the person on the other end of the phone remotely connect to their machine. I don't think they do anything bad to the machine or install any malicious software, they basically just open up things like the Event viewer and tell them everything they see is a virus on their computer.
They then try to sell the person a security package .. one of my customers said she gave them $600. Which some how she did get back and also changed her card number.
Every customer who has contacted me about this says, they have called the number, they did let them onto their machine. Some gave them money, other have gotten suspicious when they ask for money.
The person who gave them the $600 told me and I quote "I'm going to call Norton and have them explain why their antivirus let all these viruses on my system *face palm*
