Julia Roberts is once again teaming up with the director that made her into a household name. Without a doubt, Garry Marshall put the 47-year-old actress on the map with the blockbuster Pretty Woman. The two joined forces again in Runaway Bride and Valentine's Day.
Deadline is reporting Roberts will take part in Marshall's next film set around yet another holiday. Mother's Day "tells intertwining stories about the lives of several mothers as the title holiday approaches." Find out below which actresses are in negotiations to also appear in the film
Did you watch the 70th annual Golden Globes? Expectations were high for Tina Fey and Amy Poehler's first hosting attempt, and boy did they deliver. I had a few people over for a potluck viewing party and we found ourselves laughing throughout the three-hour ceremony. Hopefully, this is the dawn of a new era. Fingers crossed that the duo emcee the event again next year. It definitely didn't drag with them on deck.
Equally as impressive, were the ladies on the red carpet. There were barely any fashion trainwrecks this year which is a shame since it's fun to mock bad choices. If there was a common theme this year, it was to go simple and understated. Another big trend was long sleeves. A few ladies really worked this to perfection. Check out my Top 10 picks for best dresses at the 2013 Golden Globes below.
A week after the Sandy Hook shootings in Newtown, Connecticut, two videos from very opposing camps hit the internet. First you have celebrities asking in a PSA, "How many more colleges? How many more classrooms? How many more movie theaters? How many more house of faith? How many more shopping malls? How many more street corners?" Demand A Plan is a grassroots initiative to mobilize Americans to DEMAND a plan to end gun violence from Congress and President Obama. Reese Witherspoon, Beyonce, Michelle Williams, Selena Gomez, John Hamm, Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson and many, many more lend their voices to the PSA.
Coincidentally on the same day, National Rifle Association president Wayne LaPierre, held a live press conference. LaPierre claims the media is to blame for the shootings and not guns. He explains that the entertainment industry makes "the filthiest form of pornography," citing violent music videos and films Natural Born Killers and American Psycho. He further goes on to say that "The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun." His most controversial comment that has celebrities on Twitter in a tizzy is his claim that had armed guards been at Sandy Hook, innocent lives would've been spared that day. Check out both vids below.
While not as fantastic as last week's Kiki Turkey Lurkey mashup, this musical number is pretty awesome in its own right. Kate Hudson is back with her deliciously bitter Cassandra July to show Rachel (Lea Michele) how it's done. Not only did Cassandra seduce that insanely sexy Brody (Dean Geyer) from Rachel's hands for a hot steamy session, but now she's showing Rachel that she reigns supreme on the dance floor as well.
On the upcoming episode of Glee, titled "Swan Song", Cassandra and Rachel perform "All That Jazz" from the hit musical Chicago. Dressed in their finest black dance attire, the ladies strut and shimmy their butts off while belting out the show-stopping number. As vocally superior Rachel is to Cassandra, I have to give the edge to the NYADA dance teacher. In this battle, the teacher definitely schools the pupil. Check out the jazzy battle below.
Just when I thought I was done with Glee, Ryan Murphy snags Kate Hudson for a six-episode arc as deliciously wicked Cassandra July. Slowly, FOX has teased us with glimpses of Hudson's debut, with episodic pics, to an extended clip of her first interaction with Rachel Berry and even the audio for her first performance. At long last, we finally have the official video for her first number on the FOX show.
The powers-that-be were kind enough to debut Hudson's performance days before the show's fourth season premiere and it lives up to all the hype. Not only does she sound great but her dancing is flawless. It shouldn't come as a surprise for anyone who saw Nine. She was the best thing in that musical bomb. Check out the clip and witness Kate school Lea Michele (Rachel) on how real dancing should look like.
If you liked watching Kate Hudson sass Lea Michele for being from Ohio in the first Glee Season 4 teaser, then you're going to love this. Thanks to FOX, we now have an extended look at Hudson's Cassandra July and Michele's Rachel Berry's first interaction on the season premiere, titled "The New Rachel." The former McKinley High student is enrolled in Cassandra's Dance 101 class at NYADA. Sufficed to say, she's not the teacher's pet.
The dance teacher has no problem holding back, and tells it like it is. She singles out Rachel and calls her Miss David Schwimmer and informs her she can't stand her stuck-up attitude. Loves it. I'm really looking forward to watching Hudson on the show. I wonder if Sarah Jessica Parker's character will be a joy to watch as well.
Preceding the clip is some awkward lame banter between The Mindy Project's Ike Barinholtz and Cory Monteith (Finn). Barinholtz reveals he's been on the edge of his seat all summer, wondering if Finchel will reunite and how the show will handle simultaneous stories in NYC and Lima. If you're not interested in any of that, fast forward to the 1:31 mark to catch Kate Hudson's character tear Rachel a new one.
Everyone's favorite new Twitter user, Ryan Murphy, bestowed a couple of goodies online, making Gleeks universally ecstatic. The Glee co-creator unleashed the show's first Season 4 poster, along with a cast photo with one notable fan-favorite missing. Is someone not coming back, even though Murphy stated a few months ago that everyone was returning in different capacities?
The first visual features special guest star Kate Hudson motioning the loser "L" in the show's signature style. With the tagline "Sometimes the Big Apple bites", it appears things will not be a walk in
Central the park for former New Directions MVP. Someone will definitely not be the teacher's pet. Rachel Berry better be on her best behavior or in this case, pointed toes since Hudson is playing a dance teacher. Hudson certainly looks like she's embracing her deliciously mean new character.
It's a brave new "Glee". At least that's what the first Season 4 promo claims. Based on first impression, I think they're half right. Still the same, Brittany is as "bright" as ever, Sue Sylvester is still throwing jabs at Will and not a single hair is out of place on Blaine's head. Speaking of the latter, the slicked-hair half of Klaine covers Imagine Dragon's "It's Time" and is used in the Fox clip.
As for the new, Kate Hudson is a deliciously bitchy dance teacher, Coach Sylvester is a proud mama, and a "newish" character joins New Directions. The first official image of Hudson as Rachel Berry's NYADA dance teacher Cassandra July (love the name), was released by Ryan Murphy via Twitter earlier this week. Doesn't she look FIERCE in the picture above. And PS, who's that hottie she's hanging onto? Hudson signed on for six episodes. I can't wait. Check out the dialogue from her first encounter with NYADA freshman Rachel Berry.
Kate Hudson: "I bet you were a big star back in Iowa."
Lea Michele: "I'm actually from Ohio."
Kate Hudson: "Oh, Ohio? Even worse."
With half of New Directions graduating, some new bodies were needed to McKinley High's Glee club. The first to be recruited comes in the form of transfer student, Wade Adams aka Unique. As you recall, Unique was played by "The Glee Project" Season 1 runner-up Alex Newell. Looks like, Newell has parlayed his short stint last year into a longer recurring part for Season 4. Congrats. I should also probably mention that Will Schuester is sporting a shorter 'do. Definitely less Chia Pet'ish. Check it out along with everything else I've mentioned below.

I do love Christmas! I love the gift-giving, holiday parties, Christmas carols and, yes, even the shopping - crowded as it may be! People usually are nicer and friendlier during the holidays.
While an army of volunteers and donors makes the annual Liberty County Toys for Tots drive a success, local twins Zack and Tim Seiders, 19, sacrificed their own gifts and allowances to share holiday magic.

Locals in search of alternative Christmas celebrations swapped pop-laden carols for traditional tunes and hot cocoa for tea during Saturday events at the Midway Museum and Fort Morris State Historic Site.
Tis the season to be jolly, but, unfortunately, it also is the season to be "trashy." It is true that the Christmas season brings many wonderful things to us - family gatherings, a spiritual uplift, a reminder of mankind's goodness. But it also brings a significant increase in litter.
Holiday decorations will transform the Holbrook Pond Recreation Area off Highway 144 into a yuletide fun land from 6-8 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Santa and Mrs. Claus will be there.

Shooting with the Canon Rebel T3i (600D and Kiss X5) details the features, controls, and options in the Canon Rebel T3i camera. Author Ben Long provides an overview of a digital single lens reflex (SLR) camera and reviews the Canon Rebel T3i camera's components and basics of operation, including changing lenses, navigating the menus, shooting in Auto mode, and reviewing and managing photos on the camera's LCD screen. The course also covers white balance options, advanced metering and autofocus controls, flash, and shooting HD video, and includes a chapter on sensor and camera maintenance.
Most people have used a self-timer on a camera. You balance the camera on a rock or something and you point it at your friends, and then you set it off and run back and try to get in the frame and look natural before the camera takes a picture. It works the same way on your digital camera. The self-timer control is located on the same button as the Continuous mode. If I pop this open, I get my Drive mode menu. So here is Single shot which is where we normally are. Here is Continuous mode which we've already looked at. Then there is a 10-second Self-timer. There are actually three Self-timers. We're going to look at this one first.
I'm going to select that. Now remember to select it, I have to hit the SET button to make it take, and now I'm in Self-timer mode which I can see right there. When I press the Shutter button, the light on the front of the camera starts flashing. So this is when I would be running around to try and get in front of the camera and get some kind of reasonable expression pasted onto my face. And it fires. And if you notice, the light went solid and the beep started beeping faster just a few seconds before it was ready to take. So that gives you a little warning. I don't know if you noticed also on the back of the camera, there's a countdown here that we'll see in a minute.
I also have a 2-second timer. So I'm going to press that and now when I hit the button, I get a timer that only lasts two seconds. Obviously, two seconds is not enough time for you to run around and get in front of the camera. What that's for is for times when you're shooting on a tripod and you want to be sure that the camera is very, very sturdy or very steady I should say. Press the Shutter button, the camera will wait two seconds. That gives a time for any handheld shake that you might have introduced to wear off. And let's look at this last one. This is a Self-timer Continuous.
So this is going to be a 10-second timer and when it goes off, it's going to take a certain number of pictures. The default is 2, but I could say I want 5 shots right here because maybe I'm taking a picture of a large group of people and I want to be sure that someone's eyes aren't closed, so I want a range of images to work with. So I'm going to hit OK and I hit the button and again this light is flashing. I get my countdown back here and when I get down to the last couple of seconds, this is going to go solid. There we go. The beep goes faster and it rattles off my five images and now it's writing it on to the card.
So these are the self- timer options that you have. It's a really nice range of options. There are higher-end cameras that don't have as sophisticated timers as what you will find on the Rebel. I think you'll find them very useful.

"Everythings Big in TEXAS"
Thanks Erica.
Todd rode west with me out to Cleveland Tennessee. We had a great day.
Trying to check into a motel was another storey however as my credit card was declined.
I called to find out the problem & was asked if i had been using the card in Quebec. No! well someone had been???
That card only had 1 issued & I had it so it must have been made up with my info, likely organised crime I figure.
Fortunately I had more than 1 card.
Next day was a get some mileage day on. I got to Jackson Mississipi.
Next morning heading West it starts pouring rain just as I'm leaving. I'm on the highway getting pelted & blown around with very high wind. Couldn't ride very fast and trucks were passing me making it even worse. Not a fun way to cross the Mississipi, felt like I was gonna end up in it. Down the road I saw high water beside the road with a number of cars half submerged. Then some trees obviously very recently having been ripped apart.
Oh this is exciting! & I'm freezing. I had checked out the weather report & knew likely another hour toward Texas it should clear up, so
I stopped at a rest center, made good use of their hot air hand dryer, put on extra clothing & Electric vest & pressed on.
! First time here. This is where on this trip I wanted to take some time to stop explore and enjoy a few places. I
had a good biker book on Texas so I also had some plans & details.
Had a little excitment 1st night in Tesxas when I was checked into a motel 6 beside Tyler Texas, a major city. I'm on my laptop, it's about 10:30 and there is a knock at the door. I leave the security latch on and open the door. There is a black dude there asks me if that is my bike outside. I say yes
and he startes rambling some cocamaimy storey & asks me to come outside so he can speak with me further. NO! he carries on about hard times, not a begger, actually a preacher & gonna show me ID. Huh? Ok i get it I say you've fallen on some hard times, hang on a sec. I close the door go grab $5 & go give it to him wish him good luck. He takes off. OK!!!
Into Texas a ways started seeing these.
At times felt like I was surrounded.
Some were pretty friendly, had good hearts, would wave & also give the biker salute!
Had to watch out for animals.
Holy Cow!
Didn't have to worry about hitting these ones. They were on a wall in a Dairy Queen. This is TEXAS!
Everythings big in Texas!
Stopped in San Antonio, . I had heard about the River Walk. Wow it was really nice! Concrete decking on each side of the river

Up to 90% of the funds raised under the Offers will be invested in Structured Products within six months of the close of the Offers, with the balance held in cash or cash equivalents. The level of funds invested in Structured Products will be progressively reduced over three years as Venture Capital Investments are made. By 31 March 2013, and thereafter, it is estimated that approximately 75% of the funds attributable to the New Shares will be invested in Venture Capital Investments. Venture Capital Investments will be sought in UK trading companies. The majority of these companies are likely to own substantial assets such as children's nurseries, health clubs, pubs, stock or work-in-progress. Venture Capital Investments will also be sought in companies with predictable revenue streams from financially sound customers, ideally with contracts pending or in place.

She describes heartwrenching conversations with Palestinian friends as they endure the bombings. Regarding the Israeli rationale for their attacks, Mermelstein quotes Mourid Barghouti in his 2003 book I Saw Ramallah:
"It is easy to blur the truth with a simple linguistic trick: start your story from 'Secondly.' Yes, this is what Rabin did. He simply neglected to speak of what happened first. Start your story with "Secondly," and the world will be turned upside-down. Start your story with "Secondly," and the arrows of the Red Indians are the original criminals and the guns of the white men are entirely the victim. It is enough to start with "Secondly," for the anger of the black man against the white to be barbarous. Start with "Secondly," and Gandhi becomes responsible for the tragedies of the British. You only need to start your story with "Secondly," and the burned Vietnamese will have wounded the humanity of the napalm, and Victor Jara's songs will be the shameful thing and not Pinochet's bullets, which killed so many thousands in the Santiago stadium. It is enough to start the story with "Secondly," for my grandmother, Umm 'Ata, to become the criminal and Ariel Sharon her victim.

One of the requirements for the twitter client we are developing for the community is a spellcheck component. What are some of the spellcheck components/systems you have used in applications and what was your experience using it?
Addict Component Suite is the most complete one for Delphi, but it's not free.
But I think you are looking for freeware for your twitter utility, I have used LS Speller for free project and worked fine with me, it's based on ISpell, so you can update it with newer dictories.
But there's no D2009 update yet, and seems it's not actively developed.
Another option to use the MS Word built in dictionary.
In the blog comments Ken just suggested LS Spell which uses the ISpell dictionaries. It is for Delphi 5, 6 and 7, so as long as it doesn't make explicit use of other string types might work fine.
I've been using Addict and have been pretty happy with it. I've used it mainly in conjunction with WPTools for mail merge & emailing.
You can use Aspell (Win32 version: http://aspell.net/win32/).
In your Delphi project you could use the command line pipe interface:
C:\Programme\Aspell\bin>aspell pipe @(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell 0.50.3) hello * world * helllo & helllo 18 0: hello, Helli, hell lo, hell-lo, hell, Heall, hallo, he'll, hullo, Heller, heller, hellos, Jello, jello, Halli, Holli, hallow, hollow wourld & wourld 12 0: world, would, wold, whorled, wield, weld, wild, wooled, whirled, worlds, woulds, word
DevExpress VCL also has a spell checker, though I have only played with a bit. I also own Addict which I use in software projects.
If you can guarantee that your client always has MS Word installed, I'd suggest MS Word's built in spellchecker too with OLE automation.
I use the TRichView component as my "text editor" in my Delphi application.
It supports many spellcheckers that work with Delphi. You may want to compare the ones that it supports:

As THE BLACK CIRCLE Began, So It Ends: In Mediocrity
May 11, 2014

Speech Bubbles: Comics & Graphic Novels
Readers, take note: you gotta love your barbarians. These days, they're certainly in short supply. Though fantasy has made and continues to make a grand resurgence, what with THE LORD OF THE RINGS and THE HOBBIT theatrical adaptations along with HBO's mostly stellar GAME OF THRONES gaining steam on the boob tube. Still, there aren't too many characters who resemble the singular Cimmerian. He's quick with a quip and even quicker with his sword, and he's always willing to rush headfirst into battle, perhaps doing like Indiana Jones did by 'making it up as he goes.' To my delight, Dark Horse is adapting one more tale inspired by the works of Robert E. Howard, and this one goes under the name THE PEOPLE OF THE BLACK CIRCLE.
Let's dissect, shall we?
(NOTE: The following review will contain minor spoilers necessary solely for the discussion of plot and/or characters. If you're the type of reader who prefers a review entirely spoiler-free, then I'd encourage you to skip down to the last three paragraphs for my final assessment. If, however, you're accepting of a few modest hints at 'things to come,' then read on …)
From the book's editorial page: "With the black peak on Yimsha in sight, Conan and Devi Yasmina are ambushed by the Black Seer Khemsa and his lover Gitara in hopes to ransom the devi for themselves. But Khemsa's betrayals have not gone unnoticed by his master and the Black Circle descends upon the group! Ignoring Conan, the Black Circle swiftly dispatches their misguided brother and his lover, and steal Yasmina away, leaving Conan to plot his next action …"
One of the significant disadvantages to having read so many Conan tales and then being tasked with reviewing one like THE BLACK CIRCLE is that, invariably, there are mental comparisons to other better and lesser works. Since they're all about Conan and his various adventures, it gets hard to separate one from the other – you want to know that they're all adding up to some grand legacy. Still, a wise man once told me that life is only time spent between one's more emotional high points – meaning that you'll spend far more time just 'being' than ever feeling 'exalted' in any measure.
That being said, the best I can sum up this tale is that (A) it'll never register as one of my favorites and (B) it'll likely turn me off from ever seeking out the actual source material (the written word of Robert E. Howard). For THE BLACK CIRCLE feels like a 'black mark' on Dark Horse's otherwise pretty respectable record with the seminal Cimmerian – it dishes little action, it rarely makes narrative sense (at least, to me it didn't), and it makes the barbarian look as though he's lived a life of luck than boundless excitement.
See, I don't want to see Conan second guessing what to do next. I don't either want him seeking out adventure solely for adventure's sake because I've always pictured him as the ultimate "smart" barbarian – sure, he'll gladly cross blades with any man should the opportunity arise, but he'll have some cause behind it before he wastes burning calories without reason. In these final pages recounting his exchange with THE PEOPLE OF THE BLACK CIRCLE (and, for the record, they're not so much people as they are lizard-men), I see Conan going to rescue a kidnapped princess who the last I checked was his sworn enemy. Didn't he, after all, kidnap her solely with the intent of recovering seven of his captured comrades? (Yes, I know that they were killed under other circumstances, but at what point did these two ever become allies of a type that he would risk his life for her?)
Now, I suppose one could reasonably stress that Yasmina was being held by forces of darkness so it would stand to reason that Conan would go after her merely just for spite. Right? Isn't that possible? Meh. Like I said, I suppose that could be the case, and I suppose that's what I'll have to settle on as this one ends pretty definitively. (Let's just say that I, for one, hope there's no sequel.) That might be the case because even Yasmina gloriously announces "I knew you'd come for me!" in the big finish (which finally does serve up the requisite amount of bloody action), defying all sense of logic.
Still, there's a brief coda that kinda/sorta returns them to their adversarial positions, none too quickly if you ask me.
CONAN AND THE PEOPLE OF THE BLACK CIRCLE (#04 of 04) is published by Dark Horse Comics. The script is adapted by Fred Van Lente; the artwork is done by Ariel Olivetti; with the letters provided by Richard Starkings & Comicraft. For those of you who grew up on an island, this tale and Conan's creation rests entirely on the shoulders of Robert E. Howard. This issue bears the cover price of $3.50, and – as much as that matters – it's a bargain available only to those who have it to spend: Dark Horse's reputation for quality is second-to-none so far as this reader is concerned.
(MILDLY) RECOMMENDED. I wanted to like this one, but CONAN AND THE PEOPLE OF THE BLACK CIRCLE just felt too lukewarm too much of the time. Light on action and even lighter on reason, this tale probably wouldn't bring too many new readers to the fold; and it'll probably leave some (like me) scratching their heads in mild disgust. The best reason to hang through four issues? Olivetti's artwork is pretty killer right up until the last panel.
In the interests of fairness, I'm pleased to disclose that the fine folks at Dark Horse Comics provided me with a digital reading copy of CONAN AND THE PEOPLE OF THE BLACK CIRCLE #04 of 04 by request for the expressed purposes of completing this review; and their contribution in no way, shape, or form contributed to my evaluation of it.

No, your 5-year-old could NOT paint that
It's fair to say that I have my share of critics. Barely a week goes by without some asshole criticizing my work. In every case this is borne out of ignorance, rudeness and jealousy. I have a number of stock replies that I send out in the vein attempt to correct the ill-educated and mis-informed.

A.M. Best Affirms Ratings of Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A. and Its Main Subsidiaries Business Wire LONDON -- August 9, 2013 A.M. Best Europe – Rating Services Limited has affirmed the financial strength rating of A (Excellent) and issuer credit ratings (ICR) of "a" of Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A. (Generali) (Italy) and its main subsidiaries. At the same time, A.M. Best has affirmed the ratings of debt instruments issued or guaranteed by Generali. The outlook for all ratings remains negative. (See below for a detailed listing of the companies and ratings.) The ratings reflect the group's very strong business position, resilient operating performance and improving risk-adjusted capitalisation. Offsetting factors include the sensitivity of the group's risk-adjusted capitalisation to financial market volatility and profitability pressures arising from the challenging macroeconomic environment in its key markets. The negative outlook reflects Generali's exposure to the financial markets in Italy. Generali is one of the largest insurers in Europe with a very strong franchise in both life and non-life insurance within its core markets, namely Italy, Germany and France, which contributed over 70% of gross written premium in 2012. The Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) markets remain important and a source of future growth, as attested by the acquisition by Generali of an extra 25% stake in Generali PPF Holding (GPH) in March of this year, giving Generali management control of the entity. In 2012, the group reported increased gross written premium of EUR 69.6 billion. Premium revenue is likely to grow marginally in the next few years as challenging market conditions prevail in Generali's core markets. The profitability of Generali has been resilient, albeit impacted by the eurozone financial crisis in the last two years. Generali reported a reduced net result of EUR 90 million in 2012, down from EUR 856 million in 2011, mainly stemming from significant impairments following the asset review conducted at the end of 2012 and the alignment of the group's impairment policy with market standards. Both life and non-life business segments contributed to an increased operating result of EUR 4.2 billion (EUR 3.9 billion in 2011). Generali's risk-adjusted capitalisation recovered in 2012, benefitting from increases in revaluation reserves of financial investments and recovery of the Value of In Force (VIF), which A.M. Best gives partial credit for in its Best's Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR) model. In line with Generali's strategic plans, risk-adjusted capitalisation is expected to benefit from the disposals of Generali U.S. Holdings, and the minority stakes held in Seguros Banorte Generali and Pensiones Banorte Generali, amongst others. However, Generali continues to maintain sizeable exposures to peripheral eurozone sovereign debt, mainly Italian, and eurozone financial institutions that make its risk-adjusted capitalisation sensitive to investments in the financial markets. The group's capital resources would also be affected by the planned acquisition of the remaining 24% stake of GPH. In the context of the restructuring of the Italian operations, as at first July this year, Generali has transferred the bulk of its primary insurance business to the newly created Generali Italia S.p.A. Generali's ratings are not affected by the transaction, as the entity remains an operating holding company, mainly acting as the group's reinsurer. Upward rating pressure is likely to be driven by lasting improvements to the macroeconomic conditions in Southern Europe. Negative rating pressure could arise if Generali's risk-adjusted capitalisation were to deteriorate materially, which could be as a result of investment losses or a deterioration of the operating environment in Generali's key territories. The FSR of A (Excellent) and ICRs of "a" have been affirmed for Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A. and its following subsidiaries: *Generali Deutschland Holding AG *AachenMuenchener Lebensversicherung AG *AachenMuenchener Versicherung AG *Generali Lebensversicherung AG *Generali Versicherung AG *COSMOS Lebensversicherungs-AG *COSMOS Versicherung Aktiengesellschaft *Central Krankenversicherung Aktiengesellschaft *Generali Vie *Generali IARD The ICR of "bbb" has been affirmed for Generali France S.A. The following debt ratings have been affirmed: Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A.— -- "a-"on EUR 1,750 million 5.125% senior unsecured notes, due 2024 -- "a-" on EUR 750 million 4.875% senior unsecured notes, due 2014 -- "bbb+" on EUR 1,250 million 7.75% fixed/floating rate senior subordinated callable notes, due 2042 (callable in 2022) -- "bbb+" on EUR 750 million 10.125% fixed/floating rate senior subordinated callable notes, due 2042 (callable in 2022) -- "bbb+" on GBP 495 million 6.416% fixed/floating subordinated rate perpetual debentures, callable in 2022 -- "bbb+" on GBP 350 million 6.269% fixed/floating subordinated rate perpetual debentures, callable in 2026 Generali Finance B.V. (guaranteed by Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A.) — -- "a-" on EUR 1,500 million 4.75% senior unsecured debentures, due 2014 -- "a-" on EUR 500 million 3.875% senior unsecured notes, due 2015 -- "bbb+" on EUR 1,250 million 5.479% fixed/floating subordinated rate perpetual debentures, callable in 2017 -- "bbb+" on EUR 1,275 million 5.317% fixed/floating subordinated rate perpetual debentures, callable in 2016 -- "bbb+" on GBP 700 million 6.214% fixed/floating subordinated rate perpetual debentures, callable in 2016 The following indicative ratings on securities available under the EUR 10 billion medium-term note programme that was renewed in April of this year have been affirmed: Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A. and Generali Finance B.V.— -- "a-" on all senior notes to be issued under the programme -- "bbb+" on all subordinated and hybrid notes to be issued under the programme The methodology used in determining these ratings is Best's Credit Rating Methodology, which provides a comprehensive explanation of A.M. Best's rating process and contains the different rating criteria employed in the rating process. Best's Credit Rating Methodology can be found at www.ambest.com/ratings/methodology.

36 year old woman | West Los Angeles, CA, USA | Seeking men 32-40 within 20 miles
life is short but sweet for certain...
SoCal native, UCLA grad, LOVE food, love music, love flip flops. As it is with most other ladies, I'm just as comfortable in heels and like dressing up. My family and friends are everything. Laughing is everything. I'll try anything once. And who doesn't love to travel (it's an amazing thing learning about different cultures and seeing how the rest of the world lives)... I might say I'm pretty laid back and my friends might tell you I'm pretty funny and witty. !! Love dance (the art form)- I've been taking dance classes since I was 9 and will continue to for as long as possible. Everyone needs a release, and this is mine. Other faves: My DVR, Lakers, iPad, impromptu dance parties at a friend's house after a night out, being silly, laughing so hard it hurts, my couch, singing (in the car, at a concert, karaoke- don't really care how I sound it's just fun!). I'm looking for someone who shares some similar interests but from whom I can also learn new things. Someone who challenges me. Can be serious and not so serious. A sense of humor is key and he should be able to laugh at himself and not take life too seriously all the time. And there it is... I feel you learn a lot more about someone in person so let's get to it!
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Playing cards , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports , Wine tasting
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Cats, Dogs
I've had pretty much all the basic pets throughout my life- fish, hamsters, turtles, dogs, cats, birds.
Local- Venice, Santa Monica. Favorite travel cities- London, NYC, Shanghai, Amsterdam, Costa Rica. Dying to see more of Eastern Europe and pretty much everywhere else...
University of California, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA
Music- Pink Floyd, Zero 7, Radiohead, Massive Attack, Postal Service, Black Keys, Mumford, Sigor Ros, the 80's.
Love going to concerts (HBowl, Wiltern El Rey are faves), movies, trying new restaurants/bars, museums, hiking, beaching, hanging with friends or just chilling at home. I'm usually game for anything.
Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn. I do love to read but it's hard to find the time sometimes. Just ordered The Orphan Master's Son off Amazon. Pretty excited to get into it...

A Harriman attorney hopes to quickly resolve his suspension from practicing.
"I hope I can also make it clear to the public, and specifically to my clients, that under the suspension order I can continue representing my existing clients until April 25," said Spence R. Bruner in a statement to the Roane County News. "My attorney, Chris Cawood, and I are making every effort to have this matter resolved in my favor by that date so I do not lose any time at work," Bruner said.
With three rivers that feed Watts Bar Lake, there's no shortage of water and related recreation in Roane County.
However, the influx of severe spring weather, particularly heavy wind matched with lightning, does not mesh well with activities on the water.
Monday evening's thunderstorms brought trees down in the area, especially in Harriman, but for folks on the water, it posed a more serious threat.
A school bus crashed South of the River Monday morning. There were no children on the bus at the time.
The accident happened on Hwy. 58 near the intersection of Mans Hollow Road shortly before 7 a.m.
The bus driver, Angela Morehew, was not injured. A passenger on the bus, Virginia Rucker, was transported to Roane Medical Center.
The crash was investigated by the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
State Rep. Julia Hurley said her relationship with the Roane County Commission has room for improvement.
"No representative has a perfect relationship with any of their county commissions," she said by email. "So with that said, of course we could always work better together."
Hurley said she thinks the commission focuses too much of its time on Tiger Haven, a sanctuary for big cats in East Roane County.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Ned McWherter had political prowess matched by an engaging down-home personality that endeared him to Tennessee voters.
McWherter, a self-made millionaire businessman, turned a phrase as easily as he charmed those at the ballot box.
The two-term Democratic governor died Monday at Centennial Hospital in Nashville. He was 80 and had cancer.
Some of his memorable quotes:
— "I know every hog path in Tennessee."
Not everyone is happy with a proposal to allow special-event permits for the sale of beer in Harriman.
In fact, several people plan to go to the Harriman City Council meeting on Tuesday to voice their concern. And they have some powerful allies.
"This is not the vision that my dad had for Hooray for Harriman 20 years ago when he was on the board — and it is not the vision that I had when I co-founded the Harriman Cruisin' eight years ago," Mayor Chris Mason said.
Covenant Health and Roane Medical Center appear to be mere weeks away from breaking ground on a much-anticipated new facility in Midtown.
First, however, hospital officials are preparing for an April 27 hearing before the Tennessee Health Services and Development Agency to seek approval on the construction of the building which will replace the hospital in downtown Harriman.
Harriman Mayor Chris Mason said he plans to attend the hearing to voice his support of Covenant Health relocating the hospital's operations.
An Oliver Springs man was arrested last week after running his truck off the road near Harriman.
Emergency crews were dispatched to Harriman Hwy. on March 30 on a report of a rollover accident.
The driver, Charles Roberts of 410 E. Spring St., Oliver Springs, ended up being arrested.
He was taken to the Roane County Jail on charges of driving under the influence and violation of implied consent law.
A 30-year-old Harriman man was sentenced to three years in prison for robbery.
Rockwood High School students Taylor Mioduski, left, and Amber Monroe applaud a dance team while waiting to take their turn in the spotlight Thursday during the Academic Festival at Roane State Community College.
More than 2,000 East Tennessee students participated in the festival, which included events such as art, dancing, singing, speaking, writing and mathematics.

The Jewish Standard, a Jewish newspaper in New Jersey, has announced that it will no longer include same-sex unions in the celebrations page - after publishing just one. You can read the note from the editor here.
The newspaper cites "pain and consternation" from traditional/Orthodox communities. You can read more about the decision and its backlash here.
While I'm angered by this decision, I'm heartened by the comments section. It is worth reading the comments section - the vast majority of posters are outraged at this decision.
Oh, and, just in case you're wondering, same-sex unions (civil unions) are actually legal in New Jersey.
We welcome your feedback.

At once beguilingly sweet and juicy, with a kiss of tartness, cherries are seduction on a stem. And the fruit's appeal is only enhanced by its limited availability within a season that lasts just a few weeks in most locales, and less than three months overall across the country. Although most other fruits are now predictable fixtures in the food supply, the cherry's appearance marks a moment for restaurants to enjoy—and exploit—one of nature's special treats.

It is no secret that business is bubbling for Italy's Prosecco producers. Total Prosecco sales here in the U.S. now easily surpass Champagne sales and are still growing at a 25% clip. With a friendly, fruit-forward profile, lower alcohol content and moderate price tag, more and more customers are choosing to forego traditional Champagne and order Prosecco instead. It seems that Prosecco has carved out its own niche, a bubbly with a more informal, sprezzatura image, bucking the conventional notion of formality, celebration and splurge. In fact, along with a smaller, but undeniable Cava resurgence, Proseccos have boosted sparkling wine consumption in the U.S. by nearly 50% in less than a decade.

At a handful of restaurant bars around the country, you're likely to find the bartender in the kitchen—well before prime bar time—using a Vita-Prep or a Cryovac. He or she may be taring a laboratory scale to weigh out precise amounts of gelatin or xanthan. or maybe the bartender is rolling out a liquid-nitrogen tank to perform a spherification or clarification technique for a component of a libation in progress. What's going on here?
Americans love lamb, but they rarely prepare it at home. Perhaps because it is more expensive than other red meats or because of its traditional reputation as a food reserved for holidays, Americans have left cooking lamb largely to the restaurant experts. It's not surprising that 75 percent of white tablecloth restaurants feature some kind of lamb on the menu.

Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
Just finished crysis, don't how long it took me but all ig otta say is the game was AMAZING!! i love it, I am surely going to play it again this time on Delta mode!
I hope everyone enjoys it as much as i do, i didnt think the ending was that bad, kinda liked how it ends, gives you hope and prepares you for more!!!!!!!
i love the soundtrack the game has. Good music.
Re: Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
I think I'm half way through, just got dropped off the kill the AA guns. But I'm in love with this game. It's just as I had hopped. large scale jungle and foliage areas, granted I'm running it at high-very high, I like the action sequences... and really, nothing else to say except I love the gameplay in those mindblowing jungles. It takes me awhile to get through levels because I just explore every corner just fascinating walking through the foliage...
My only gripe is that, I'm playing on hard and some of the enemies do some pretty stupid things.
Re: Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
I know what you mean, lol sometimes i walked in circles cuz everything looked the same. I love using cloak in the jungle and attacking the guys. cant wait for crysis 2 ill buy it right away!
im running it on very high tweaked settings, i have a 8800gts, but for some reason really liked window mode....no clue why.
Re: Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
i fully agree. this game is absolutely stunning. i just got home from my honeymoon last night, and fired up crysis on my the rig in my sig.
on my vacation i was playing it on a laptop on medium details. ran pretty
good! was smooth and all, but last night i was floored all over again.
playing @ 1280x1024, everything on high with the dx9 tweaks it never
slowed down. everything is responsive and fast, it's just incredible. i love
using speed to run around and blast enemies with the shotgun before
they have a chance to figure out where i am.
Re: Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
Spoiler details below....
Best part is EASILY the night graveyard scene with the Korean nano suit guys. That was so amazing!!! Last time I felt so moved was the Unreal corridor scene where the lights sequentially went out; Crysis was much better .
Dark moon light night time with me slowly walking into the grave yard area and notice my foot steps sound a bit louder than normal, I stop in my tracks to listen and look. Sure enough, I hear faint rustling of foot steps. I keep still and look around carefully. Mid way in the graveyard I see a shadow flicker across a grave stone. Staring at that area I see the shadow appear again but closer. The moon lit shadow is earily and slowly coming towards my way yet I see no one.
In a half panic, I look around for where the shadow source can be coming from. I still see nothing. WTF?! I immediately cloak and move over 15 feet to get a different angled look. I zoom in with my scope and way further back past the initial shadow I see a dark slick figure jumping then standing on top of a tall grave stone. By now I'm totally freakin' out. I zoomed in further.
I'm like am I seeing things? It looks like a guy in a nano suit and he don't seem friendly!! HOLY SHEET!!! I run for my life looking for a good cover spot screaming in my head like a little girl while all hell breaks loose as they attack.
I ended up dying several times cause they were so badass fully using the suit powers. I finally outsmarted them a bit and barely survived in a white knuckled panic state.
Fantastic stuff.
Re: Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
Beat it today aswell ... fantastic game! :thumbsup:
now i want a mod to give all weapons/vehicles in SP just like the demo mods. i want to enjoy the TAC weapon , tank & the AA unit!
Re: Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
haha, i loved the nano suit part too!!! i saw the shadow on the ground nad was like.. tahts not me...what the f is going on? next thing i know im gettin shot at. lol
I loved the part after the tanks! where you have to walk up the mountain! oh god that river loooked soooooo beautiful i got shot while i was looking at the surrounds cuz i didnt think there would be KPA there.
Re: Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
I'm stuck on the damn alien lvl, after it goes zero g. How the hell do you get past the blower wall!?
Re: Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
what blower part? that part was sooo f ing confusing lol i just floated around and looked at things... loved to shoot aliens. Are you at the part where u have to blow up the orange looking generators? that blower part?
Re: Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
if you are talking about the energy shields/walls then you should wait next to them , they open briefly then close again.
Re: Not TOO SHORT BUT ITS AMAZING!!!
I love sniping and I use the strength power but was wondering if there is a key that steadies your aiming when scoped. I actually prefer a bit of scope movement as it requires more skill.

THE POWER OF NUMBERS Is this Yankees season doomed before it begins?
By Luis Vazquez
As the good feelings around the Yankees and the optimism for the 2014 season which coincided with the free agent additions of Brian McCann, Jacoby Ellsbury, Carlos Beltran, and Masahiro Tanaka from Japan, may go to naught if the numbers hold as they have since the turn of the century.
What am I referring to? A little known fact that all Yankee seasons ending in four since the turn of the 19th century has shown no success and tough moments to swallow. Although the Yankees have won 27 World Championships and 40 pennants, when it comes to four, outside of the core four, it's a Yankee curse.
Let's start in 1904, as the New York Highlanders, then in its second season, since its move from Baltimore to provide a rival to John McGraw's NL New York Giants. The franchise, residing in Hilltop Park, rode ace pitcher Jack Chesbro's 41 win season to a final two game series, trailing the Boston Pilgrims (Red Sox) , the defending AL and World Champion by half a game. The announcement that the NL Giants would not play the 1094 series against the AL entrant, made this series to watch. In the first game of the doubleheader, however, a Chesbro wild pitch scored the run that held up and clinched the AL pennant for the second straight year in Boston.
Its 1914 and World War I is underway, and the "Yankees" were in the middle of a series of losing seasons, pre-Ruth. They finished 70-84.
In 1924, one year removed from a move to their own stadium and first World Championship, the Yankees fought tooth and nail but were nipped for the AL flag by two games to the Washington Senators. They finished 89-63.
1934 was two years removed from the Yankees 1932 series win over the Chicago Cubs and Ruth's called shot homer. The New York outfit was 94-60 but the Detroit Tigers were two games better.
1944 was in the midst of World War II. The reduced rosters did not stop the Yankees and St. Louis from splitting two series in 1942 and 1943. But the Yankees were not up to the task as they finished 83-71, three games out as they witnessed an all S. Louis series between the AL Browns and the NL Cardinals.
1954 was the year the Yankees were looking for their sixth consecutive World championship. After posting 97, 98, 98, 95 and 99 wins, they outdid themselves and won 103. But it was not enough as the Cleveland Indians broke the all-time best record to that point with 111 wins.
In 1964, The Yankees actually made the postseason. After going 99-63 they fought the St Louis Cardinals to the limit, but fell in the seventh game. They would not appear in the fall classic for 12 years.
1974 was Steinbrenner in his second year of ownership. An average season it appeared as New York went 80-82 and 17 games out of first. It didn't help that they were also playing the first of two seasons in Shea Stadium as their stadium was being renovated. Yet the silver lining was that they were on their back and two years later would win the AL pennant. But not in a year ending in four.
Yogi Berra in 1984 took a young core of players and finished at 87-75. However, Steinbrenner lack of patience saw him discard most of his young talent for veterans.
In 1994, with George suspended, Gene Michael and manager Buck Showalter, rebuilt the farm and in 94 was 70-43 and in first place when the strike ended the season. It would be two years before the Yankees ended their 18 year championship drought.
And 2004, The Yankees blew a 3-0 in the ALCS to the Boston Red Sox. Enough said.
Now as they take the field in 2014, the Yankees are looking to bounce back from a playoff- less season that saw them suffer a ton of injuries despite winning 90 games. If they are to take heart one can go back to this list at 1904 and go back ten more years to 1894.
The Yankees were in Baltimore and known as the Orioles. In 1894 this team with players such as Wee Willie Keeler and John McGraw, won their first NL pennant. They played a post season series with the NL Giants called the Temple Cup. They lost in four straight. On second thought maybe it was best not to mention that. Do the numbers lie? We shall see this October of 2014.
