The Curves adjustment in Adobe Photoshop has a reputation for being challenging for some photographers. In this workshop, Photoshop expert Tim Grey takes you step by step through every aspect of the Curves adjustment, helping you truly understand the concepts behind it so that you can quickly and easily maximize tonal range, optimize contrast, and enhance your photos' color balance. Note: This course was recorded in Photoshop CS5, but was created with users of both Photoshop CS5 and Photoshop CS4 in mind.
Hi, I'm Tim Grey. Photographer, author, and educator. After authoring over a dozen books, writing hundreds of magazine articles, and teaching numerous workshops around the world. I'd like to think I have a pretty good sense of what topics are of greatest interest to photographers. Curves is certainly one of those subjects. The Curves Adjustment in Photoshop has a reputation for being daunting, challenging, and for some photographers, even scary. Photographers who are adept at optimizing their images with curves are held in high esteem. And yet, curves is not anywhere near as challenging as its reputation would suggest.
In these lessons, I'll take you step by step through curves. Helping you truly understand the concepts behind curves, and how it can be used in a very comfortable and yet powerful way. You'll learn how to maximize tonal range, optimize contrast, and achieve perfect color balance. I'll then delve a little deeper, guiding you through some of the more advanced and creative ways of working with curves. To help reinforce all you've learned, we'll work on a few projects that involve multiple adjustments, providing more context for your use of curves. The images I use in each lesson come with this course, so you can use those same images while you follow along and practice the techniques you'll learn. The images are organized into folders by chapter name, and the file names reflect the content of the photo.
Matching the same file names you'll see in the lessons. After watching these lessons, I think you'll come to agree that there's no need to be afraid of curves. And that, in fact, is an incredibly powerful and useful tool for any photographer's digital workflow. I've had great fun creating these video tutorials, and hope you find them to be both educational and inspirational. (MUSIC).

Nothing is sacred to Kris Jenner. The Kardashian momager tells her eldest daughter Kourtney Kardashian that she's fed up with how "indecisive" she is about marriage and kids. Kris goes right after her during a family dinner and it's really humiliating for Kourtney.
In the middle of a gorgeous dinner in the Dominican Republic, Kris gets a little tipsy and starts yelling at Kourtney. Kris is angry at Kourtney for being a day late to the trip since she couldn't decide which plane she wanted to take. But did it warrant Kris to start yelling at her in front of the entire family?
Kris starts saying: "Oh Kourtney you're so indecisive, 'I can't decide if I want another kid, I don't know if I want to marry Scott [Disick].'"
It definitely was really mean of Kris especially to say while the cameras were rolling. Shouldn't Kris be supportive of her daughter, the only one who is providing her grandchildren too?! But Kourtney got her revenge by throwing her mom under the bus by revealing that she met up with her ex-lover Todd Waterman behind Bruce Jenner's back.
Was it wrong for Kris to slam Kourtney like that?— Chloe Melas More on Kourtney and Scott:

Well, for me at least, hate is a really strong word, and I would never use it against any name...yes, even those extremely trendy, kre8tive spelling ones you see all the time.
Aside from the typical cringe-worthy names (Neveah, Messiah, etc) I absolutely dislike the names Megan, Matilda, Margot, and Agatha. That's just off of the top of my head, there's definitely more. Megan has always been an unattractive name to me, even when I was really young. The nickname Tilly makes me cringe, and the -tilda part of Matilda doesn't really help the cause. I really don't have a problem with Margo, I really dont. It's just when there's that silent 't' at the end, I immediately think of maggots, ick. As for Agatha, I just find it super clunky and the -gath- just sounds so unattractive in my ears.~inside this collegeberry's mind ~~(updated 8/3/15)

Louise, Monica, and Amanda all have horrible sounds in them (weeze, ick, man) which sucks because i would love to honor an Amanda by middle name but cannot bare it. Hannah, Heather... i dont have an excuse. Just never liked them. Names like Madison, Allison have the -son ending, meaning son of, which is too weird to me. I love Emerie but could never give my daughter the name Emerson. and the made up ones people seem to give children these days... Brinley, Rykley, Kaydasin... shuddersRight Now I would name them...

Swenson gala recalls history, former mayor
Under the pastel sky and West Texas breeze, the nostalgic feeling wasn't that of chuck wagons or cattle drives.
Instead, the hats, suits and, yes, flapper dresses, took the atmosphere of the evening to 1920s Long Island.
The Abilene Preservation League celebrated the Swenson House's 100th anniversary with an evening of dancing and food with a "Gatsbyesque" theme to the evening.
Carol Hall took the Gatsby theme to heart. Dressed in a converted bridesmaid dress, Hall said it took her months to assemble her ensemble.
She bought the dress off eBay and found her hat at a local antique store. A local seamstress turned the dress into a replica flapper dress.
"When I picked it up from the seamstress, she said don't do any wild dancing," Hall said, "or you may need a new outfit by the end of the night."
Early Abilene banker and entrepreneur William Gray Swenson and his wife, Shirley McCollum, completed the house in 1910. An extensive renovation followed in 1928. In the mid-1980s, the Swensons' four children began the process of bequeathing the house to the Abilene Preservation League, which took over the property in 1991.
The event served as a fundraiser for the APL, which rents the house for weddings, receptions, dinners and other special occasions and conducts educational tours for school groups.
Under the surface, however, was a bittersweet time for many involved with the gala.
On Saturday morning, former Abilene mayor and state Rep. David Stubbeman died while placing U.S. flags around town. His wife, Sue, is the granddaughter of W.G. Swenson and had just completed a new arbor on the property.
"It really underscores the bittersweetness of tonight's event," Marianne Wood said of the plaque placed on the arbor. "It's going to be a beautiful party and a great opportunity for us to show extra love to this family."
Wood, chairwoman of the APL event, said she was delighted so many people — nearly 200 — came to celebrate the house and its history.
Stubbeman's unexpected death might have been a topic of discussion for those who knew him and worked with Sue but at the end of that conversation, the topic turned to carrying on.
"Many friends will be there who would like to honor his memory because he was just a great guy and wonderful public servant for the city and district," said Bill Minter, APL executive director.

Arquivo da categoria 'Ted'
Forbes announced their annual list of The Best Actors for The Buck (2013). For those who don't know: this is the list of stars who make the highest return on investments for the studio. We're pleased to inform you that Mila ranked 2nd – returns $68.70 for every $1 paid.
Ranking second behind Stone is Mila Kunis, with an average return of $68.70 for every $1 she was paid. Kunis had two huge hits in the past two years: Ted and Oz The Great and Powerful. We estimate that between June 2012 and June 2013 she earned $11 million, which was enough to land her on our most recent Celebrity 100. Like Stone, Kunis is now in a position to start demanding much more money per film. That will likely ding her return on investment number.
1. Emma Stone
2. Mila Kunis
3. Jennifer Lawrence
4. Natalie Portman
5. Dwayne Johnson
6. Daniel Craig
7. Russell Crowe
8. Kristen Stewart
9. Robert Pattinson
10. Taylor Lautner
Tar starring Mila Kunis, James Franco, Jessica Chastain, Zach Braff, Henry Hopper, Bruce Campbell gets a release date. Mark your calendars for December 1, 2013!
World premiere of Third Person is now officially confirmed by the director Paul Haggis – September 9, 2013 at Toronto International Film Festival. – Blood Ties to screen at TIFF as well

Ted 2 has been scheduled for April 3rd 2015. No words about Mila's character Lori yet!
Seth MacFarlane's Ted has passed The Hangover Part II as
The Wrap reports that Universal's pic starring Mark Wahlberg and MacFarlane's trash-talking teddy bear has now hit the $327 million mark at the international box office, matching Warner Bros.' 2011 hit The Hangover Part II. The film was first released abroad back in July.
The quirky duo comedy made an additional $1 million in Japan this weekend, putting it at $42 million there. That's only second to the UK, which has pulled in $48 million for the Uni film.
In total, Ted has made $546 million worldwide when paired with its $218 domestic take.
Leading the pack at this year's Movie Awards is Quentin Tarantino's Western epic "Django Unchained," which garnered an impressive seven nominations, including the coveted Movie of the Year; the same can be said for "Ted," which also received seven total noms, including Best Female Performance for Mila Kunis

Japan has fallen hard for Seth MacFarlane's raunchy teddy bear.
On Friday — seven months after it first launched in theaters — Universal's R-rated comedy Ted
jumped the $300 million mark at the international box office, bringing the film's worldwide total to $519.3 million.
The $300 million milestone was reached thanks to Japan, Ted's final market.
Ted, directed by MacFarlane and starring Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis, has topped the Japanese box office for two weeks in a row, earning $15.5 million to become the top grossing R-rated comedy of all time in that country.
Even before its debut in Japan, Ted was the second top grossing R-rated comedy in history behind The Hangover Part II ($581.5 million). Internationally, Ted isn't far behind the $327 million earned overseas by the Hangover sequel.

No Optimus support means NO Nvidia at all or no dynamic switching?

Re: No Optimus support means NO Nvidia at all
I think this is a case for reporting nVidia to consumer protection agencies in US/EU!
It has passed more than year and nVidia did nothing to inform costumers that they cannot use their GPUs if there's Optimus technology with it. We still see here and elsewhere confused newcomers with already bought laptops. What if someone can not return the laptop?
Just look at the official page -
it says about battery consumption, automatic performance something... only in 'learn more' can be seen that it has something with switching cards;
the whole page nothing says that it is Windows only technology, that can be learned only in whitepaper (and officially unofficial forum user support, like AaronP)
Lets say Ok, its good enough (as Linux user one can assume that it will not work) BUT there's nothing about making GPU unusable at any way! The only way to learn that is to read whole whitepaper and know X server design and so conclude that GPU cannot be accessed?!
Also, look at driver support list, there are listed all cards which are sold with Optimus, without any marks or warnings. This is misleading.
I think that nVidia deliberately doesn't clearly state this, so if someone agrees with me and lives in US/EU (because I don't) please notify national consumer protection agency they will force nVidia to do something if they can.

Five for Friday :: 1 July 2011
{Image Credit :: Margot Wood}
Not to be a downer on the whole red, white, and blue festivities or anything, but have you ever noticed just how much we tend to focus on "independence" in the United States? Now, I'm a major fan of all that this approaching holiday represents – family, grilled food, baseball, fireworks, and swimming pools (who can beat all that?)– but I was thinking… when is Interdependence Day?
Western cultural values tend to prescribe a heavy dose of individualism, which is part of what has made this nation a powerhouse. But at the individual level – the level of you and me – independence, total independence, is a total myth.
The fact is, we cannot live without one another. In no matter what nation we are born, as humans we are created as social beings. We long for companionship, validation, and the intimate knowledge of other human beings. In a very real way, we belong to each other.
We're starting to recognize our interdependence on a national and global scale – and so it's time to appreciate it on a personal one as well. For myself, I know that I am made stronger and more whole through my relationships with others. While others cannot totally heal or complete me, they can strengthen the pieces of me that are weak, if I allow myself to be open to that experience.
So on Independence Day this year, while we're guzzling lemonade and watching sparklers dazzle us, take a moment to reflect on gratitude for our interdependence as well.
I hope you enjoy today's Five for Friday. Be sure to leave amazing posts you've read or written this week below in the comments!
- First, a bit of good news for chocoholics like me – researchers are finally figuring out that candy is good for you!
- I am totally in love with this wise and witty conversation between Andrea and her fear, over at ABC Creativity. Yes, she talks to her fear – and it's awesome.
- The brillliant Audrey Brashich talks about a sorry new app and how it's damaging our girls' fragile self-esteem. Sigh…
- Sarah Wilson shares a poem that resonated with her, and it resonated with me too. What about you?
- I want to spread every word that the awesome Amy Pershing says in this Weightless interview on binge eating misconceptions around the globe. Holy moly.
Reader Comment of the Week :: Kat on As sick as our secrets
My therapist actually brought up really similar today during our session… about the power of letting go of secrets. How talking about them and discussing them causes what starts out as power OVER you to EMpowerment of sorts. When you keep a secret for a long time you begin to curl up with it whether or not you realize you're doing so. Yes, saying unspeakable things can be painful or leave you feeling out of sorts for a duration, but after awhile? That secret is no longer taking up as large of a residence within you.
I hope that everyone has a safe, happy, and healthy Independence Day. And if you don't celebrate the 4th, celebrate something that you are grateful for this weekend!

If this is true, I welcome Bank of America with open arms...this is great news! The mayor and the board should be applauded as well for changing the headlines to something in their favor (even if it never happens)...nice job. But Mayor Steinhardt and the board should know that this does not change a thing regarding the asphalt plant. All of you will be responsible for bringing a hazardous plant to our neighborhood...with 200 trucks a day traveling on a busy access road to route 78. The smokestack will be a daily reminder. The traffic congestion on route 22 to get to 78 will be a daily reminder (for everyone in the area, not just those that live near the plant)....the reality of the plant in our backyard will supercede any unrealized promise of the Bank of America venture. Make no mistake, we will not be fooled and you will be held accountable on election day.
When I read this article this morning it brought tears to my eyes! I am in California on a business trip that I couldn't cancel... I checked in this morning to see how the fight is going and came across this article about the protest. I am so proud of the residents of Lopatcong! You are fearless!! Keep fighting every way you know how!
iwonyoulose, you clearly haven't been following this in detail...the proposed plant is not comparable to the one near your home. the proposed plant in Lopat is a full scale plant that will operate 24 hours, 7 days a week with 200 trucks per day entering and leaving the facility. From what I have read, the closest comparable plant is in Long Island, NY. This plant has had over $50,000 fines against it due to violations and the citizens in that community are fighting unsuccessfully to have it closed. When they say state of the art, all they mean is that it exceeds the regulatory requirements. If this plant is built, we will all lose.
Truthisclear...the proposed site is just behind the Overlook development where hundreds of people live...you can walk to it in minutes from the condos. Styrker road is just one street that is industrial in a town that has more farms than industry. The location is surrounded by several housing developments within walking distance.
There must be more isolated locations where this plant could go. I am not against industry, and I am for projects that will bring business and tax revenues to the town....just not a potentially hazardous plant that will bring 200 trucks a day to a road that is heavily traveled by local residents and school buses.
A favorite quote of mine: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed it's the only thing that ever has." Margaret Mead
I have driven by the intended site several times in the past few days (I live less than a mile away)...what is going to happen to the businesses next to this site? ...or the farms on Styrker and closeby on route 57? who will want to eat product grown in these fields that are so close to an asphalt site? why do the rights of Intercounty Paving supercede the rights of the business owners adjacent to the property, and the people who bought homes in the large housing developments all around this site?
A personal point....every year I spend my tax refund on home improvement...not this year. All spending on my home is on hold until this plays out. So Home Depot, Lowes and the local contractors that I usually pay will lose my business this year. If this plant is built and if it smells as bad as I expect and if the traffic is as bad as I expect it to be...I will move. I can't sell my house for what is owed on it, so I will walk away, leaving another bank owned home in the area. Board members, please consider the economic impact on this community. I cannot be the only person thinking this way.
For those of you who think the objectors are overreacting....I grew up in a small town in PA near a large factory. We were told it was safe. Until 20 years later when I watched my best friend's mother die from bone cancer. Over a ten year period, 75% of the stay at home moms on the street closest to the factory died of some form of cancer. So when a board with a personal political and financial interest in building this plant tells me it is safe, excuse me if I don't believe you.
My last point....I am one of the Democrats that voted for Chris Christie during the last governor's election. If this plant is built, I will never vote Republican again. The clandestine planning over the past 6 months and the "bully" tactics of the board are enough to turn your stomach, and I have no doubt these were fully supported by the Republican mayor and governor (the mayor may contend that he has nothing to do with this, but he INVITED THEM TO BUILD IN LOPATCONG when things weren't going well in Alpha!). Never in my worst nightmares would I have believed that public officials could be so condescending and so nasty, especially during a public hearing. I have never been in politics and haven't worked on a political campaign since high school civics class. But I will stump door to door to defeat this mayor and his henchman for as long as it takes (even if I move to the other side of the river!) I recently heard that lawyers across the state call this area the "wild west" because the politicans here do whatever they want....recent events are proving that to be true. Chris Christie, you may be on the other side of the state, but your boys out here in the wild west are out of control....this whole scandal is hurting all Republicans, including you! No one here will forget this at election time, I promise you!
Check out the videos on alphamatters.org...very enlightening. One shows an interview of residents living near an asphalt plant trying to sue the township over the stench generated by the asphalt plant. Residents basicly told that the asphalt plant owners would sue the township and win, since they spent millions building the approved plant....so residents are stuck with the plant (and the stench). Lopat residents need to make sure this thing is never built!
check out the Alpha Matters.org website for info regarding asphalt sites. watch the videos. prepare to get even madder!

In the past, there has been an assumption that artists who suffer neurological damage will never be able to produce their art in quite the same way again. And though this largely appears to be true, it's not necessarily a change for the worse, according to Anjan Chatterjee '80.
"There are enough instances where people's art is judged to be better than it was before," says Chatterjee, a professor and physician at the University of Pennsylvania's Center for Cognitive Neuroscience. "Sometimes these are controversial claims, but that makes them all the more interesting to look into."
Chatterjee's current research in the neurology of visual art focuses on artists with neuropsychological deficits, and explores how these artists' natural talents allow them to express the effects of their damage in an aesthetically eloquent manner. "In most aspects of our cognitive systems, whether it's memory or language or perception, brain damage makes thing worse," he says. "This kind of paradoxical facilitation speaks to the complexity of how we produce art; when certain parts of the brain are damaged, other parts take over in interesting ways."
In articles for the journals Neuropsychologia (Vol. 42, 2004) and International Review of Neurobiology (Vol. 74, 2006), Chatterjee uses observational data and case studies to support his contention that brain damage does not always destroy an artist's aptitude, and in some cases even enhances it. Examples of these case studies include a Bulgarian painter whose art became richer and more colorful after a left hemisphere stroke; an Italian artist with epilepsy who, when in his 30s, could suddenly create vivid renderings of a town he had not seen since childhood; the famed Willem de Kooning, whose post-Alzheimer's art was often hailed by critics as lyrical and sensual; and Katherine Sherwood, a professor at Berkeley who suffered a left hemisphere hemorrhagic stroke and trained herself to paint with her left hand—a new style that has led to a flourishing career.
As yet, there is no definitive answer as to why this occurs in some artists and not in others. Chatterjee says there are possible explanations; in the case of the Italian painter with epilepsy, his neurological disease may have produced obsessive-compulsive characteristics. "People who have these characteristics and express themselves through visual art tend to use the same themes over and over," says Chatterjee. In other instances, such as the Bulgarian painter and Katherine Sherwood, the use of unusual combinations of form and color may be the result of relying on the right hemisphere to do what had been done by the left side.
"The idea in the general public, that art happens only in the right hemisphere, is not correct," says Chatterjee. "It's coordinated in different parts of the brain."
Getting a better sense of the principles behind the effects of brain injury on art will have lasting implications for creative patients with neurological damage. "We can envision it being used in therapy," says Chatterjee. "Often, with people who have brain damage and strokes, their lives become very restricted. One possibility is to encourage them to produce their art in a way they'd find enjoyable, improving their quality of life."
To go forward with this research, Chatterjee wants to look beyond data based merely on case studies and observations. "We're hoping to make this meet the minimal criteria of science," he says. "There have to be ways to measure information and test hypotheses. Most of our efforts now are geared towards creating instruments to quantify various attributes of people's art." He also hopes to compare the artwork of artists both before and after their brain injuries in order to make more precise claims about which aspects of the art have changed, and if critics and appreciators approve of the end result. Ultimately, the goal is to understand the biologic underpinnings of artistic creativity and production.
Chatterjee and fellow scientists could run into some complications when trying to secure artists' participation in these studies; many are reluctant to dismiss their post-injury art as a neurological phenomenon. "People feel there's something deeply wrong about reducing art into quantifiable parameters," Chatterjee acknowledges. "But in the world in which I live, everything we do is a brain phenomenon. Whatever you do is generated by what's happening in your brain. It's more complicated when someone's art gets better after brain damage; do you ascribe that to the damage, or does that negate individual creativity?"
Not all artists are resistant; San Francisco painter Katherine Sherwood, for example, is interested in learning more about why her brain damage has changed the way she thinks about and produces art. (Chatterjee will be writing an introductory essay for the catalog of an upcoming solo show of Sherwood's work at the National Academy of Sciences.) Others, such as one of Chatterjee's patients—a hobbyist who concentrates on watercolors—are dismayed. "After her brain damage, her ability to produce images felt freer and easier," he says. "She's a bit distressed—she's been working on this for over 10 years, and it took a brain injury to make it easier."
There may be a concern that patients' work will have a greater market value simply because it was created by someone with neurological damage. "In the early part of the 20th century, people were very interested in the artwork of those with mental illness," says Chatterjee. "It was initially called 'outsiders' art." He refers to a Philadelphia-born artist, William Utermohlen, who, after developing Alzheimer's, painted a series of self-portraits that received more attention than anything he had created earlier in his career. "And he'd been painting all his life."
Chatterjee cautions that despite the aforementioned evidence to the contrary, the fact that brain injury may alter an artist's style doesn't always mean that the new style will work in the artist's favor. "For example, you may have painted in a realistic fashion all your life, but after brain damage you can only paint in an expressionist manner," he says. "Just because the style changes doesn't mean you'll be good at that style. We have to be sensitive to that fact, and that's where the role of the individual, independent of the brain damage, comes in."
These studies appeal to Chatterjee on both a personal level—he himself is an artist, a photographer who also took a number of sculpture and drawing classes while at Haverford—and on a professional level, as it relates to his other areas of research. "I'm looking at people's responses to various notions of beauty, assessing which parts of the brain are active under what conditions," he says. "And much of my work focuses on how we direct attention across space—why do certain things draw your attention? How does art fit in?" He's also exploring how the perceptual experience of viewing art can become an emotional experience as well.
"I just wrote a grant proposal to look at people with depression who have a symptom called anhedonia—they don't get pleasure from things other people do," says Chatterjee, who also serves on the editorial board of the journal Empirical Studies of the Arts. "Their appreciation of art may be different—perhaps they see the same thing other people are seeing, but they don't have the same kind of emotional response; their emotional blunting affects their perception. We can use these tools to better understand other disorders."

effects of celery on blood pressure are prominent - blood pressure help, medical advice and information
Historically, in some of the oriental countries, patients have been prescribed to consume a daily portion of half a pound of to keep blood pressure levels stable. The research conducted at the University of Chicago indicates that animals, if fed a daily portion of celery, exhibit lower blood pressure readings that those animals that do not have celery as a nutrition supplement. In some cases, the difference in blood pressure levels between the two groups reached as much as 14 percent. That is also equivalent to 15 point decrease in systolic blood pressure.
Another advantage of celery, that it, being naturally rich in sodium content, can satisfy the desire for salt for those people who are following a low-salt diet. Having a high potassium value is another plus. With such a combination of contents, celery makes for an excellent snack for people who are currently on hypertensive medications. The majority of vegetables, when cooked, drop the ratio of potassium and sodium more than tenfold from the original content. Eating fresh celery ensures that you are getting enough of what your body needs.
Salty foods, no matter how tasty and appetizing they are, facilitate water retention in the body. One of the elements known to replace the amount of sodium in your body is potassium. If potassium is not supplied, the sodium will continue to be retained within water inside the cells. That is why most doctors prescribe water removing pills, otherwise known as diuretics, to remove excess amount of water from your body. Taking this kind of drugs facilitates removing sodium from your body by that dropping the blood pressure. Potassium has a tendency to be flushed out of the system at the same time as sodium is removed. Therefore, in parallel with the water pills, doctors usually prescribe potassium supplements to supplement the major medication.
In summary, celery lowers blood pressure by being a substance that naturally contains diuretics. Therefore, for people with mild variations in blood pressure just eating celery might bring the levels of blood pressure to normal. It serves as a healthy natural supplement for those who have to have prescribed hypertension medication. Consuming celery on a regular basis can control high blood pressure and eliminate the use of drugs. - Effects of celery on blood pressure.

Competition is a compelling thing, whether it's among country singers, candidates for the Oval Office or crazy-good actors playing mobsters and dognappers. Here's this week's glimpse at what's on the horizon and who's having a moment.
"Nashville": If rock is a patriarchy, country music is a matriarchy run by strong, ambitious women who, each generation, vie for the crowns forged by the likes of Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn and Tammy Wynette. That's what makes the premise of this new ABC drama so irresistible. Connie Britton ("Friday Night Lights") plays Rayna Jaymes, the longtime queen of country (think Reba McEntire) who's trying to evolve with the times and keep up with younger, blonder, more pop-friendly singers. Hayden Panettiere portrays Juliette Barnes, the sexy hit crossover artist (think Carrie Underwood) who is out to replace Rayna. It's like "All About Eve" with a Southern twang, so fasten your seat belts for the premiere at 10 p.m. Wednesday. It's going to be a bumpy ride -- in a Ford F150 pickup, presumably.
"Seven Psychopaths": A struggling writer. An unemployed dog kidnapper. An adorable shih tzu held for ransom. The volatile criminal kingpin who owns the pooch. These are the elements of this R-rated dark comedy from writer-director Martin McDonagh ("In Bruges"). But the real reason to see it is to monitor the scene-stealing efforts of the cast: Colin Farrell, Sam Rockwell, Woody Harrelson, Christopher Walken and Mr. Gravel Voice himself, Tom Waits. Psycho actors, qu'est-ce que c'est? Run, run, run to a theater near you starting Friday.
Regina Spektor: The music of the Russian-born singer with the high, sweet voice and hauntingly lovely melodies falls somewhere between the bleak despair of Fiona Apple and the peppy doldrums of Feist. But comparisons aren't really needed, because her tone-poem songs are uniquely her own, like the ominously twinkly "Ballad of a Politician," which opens with a description of cynical campaign flesh-pressing ("A man inside a room is shaking hands with other men"). That and other works from her latest album "What We Saw from the Cheap Seats" could pop up during Spektor's appearance at 8 p.m. Saturday at the Fillmore Detroit. Also on the bill: Only Son, aka her husband Jack Dishel's band.
"The Choice 2012": The political reality in our age of partisan blogs, vitriolic columnists and fair and unbalanced cable news channels is that potential voters never have to consume any information with which they'd potentially disagree. But if you long for the good old days of walking a bipartisan reporting line, tune in to this "Frontline" special at 9 p.m. Tuesday on PBS (WTVS-TV, Channel 56). It takes a two-hour journey into the lives, viewpoints and ambitions of President Barack Obama and his GOP rival, former Gov. Mitt Romney. Compiled from hundreds of hours of research and dozens of interviews, it's a fresh look at the men on the ballot in November -- without the noise of exaggerated attack ads.
Jess and Nick: Last year, "New Girl" was worth watching for Max Greenfield's Schmidt, the roommate with the healthy ego, expensive tastes, fussy habits and priceless lines of dialogue. But in its second season, the Fox sitcom for 30-year-old hipsters and those who cling to their younger days is building up some serious chemistry between Zooey Deschanel's Jess, whose adorability is scaling back to normal human levels, and Jake Johnson's Nick, her cranky slacker roommate who's surprisingly susceptible to her quirky charms. Like Maddie and David of "Moonlighting," Sam and Diane of "Cheers," Ross and Rachel of "Friends" and Penny and Leonard of "The Big Bang Theory," may Jess and Nick have many seasons of yearning, connecting, breaking up and reconnecting ahead of them. DVR "New Girl" at 9 p.m. Tuesday if you're watching "The Choice 2012," or vice-versa.

Two films on one DVD:
1. Anne Frank's Diary2. The Holocaust and Yad Vashem
Soundtrack in 7 languages on one DVD: English, German, French, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish.
Anne Frank's Diary
This special film was created by the Anne Frank Centre located in the house of Anne's hiding in Amsterdam. It places Anne's diary in historical context, explaining the rise of the Nazis in Germany, the begin of World War II, and the German invasion of Holland, all while it follows Anne and her family on their flight from their home in Frankfurt into the care of a group of Dutch Christians. Anne's life before and during the years of hiding, as described in her diary, is transformed from history to reality as the camera travels to her old classroom, family home, to the hiding place, and even to Auschwitz, tracing the footsteps of Anne and her loved ones in space and time.
"Anne Frank's Diary" presents the comprehensive picture of the world in which Anne lived, with commentary "by Anne herself" on each place, person, and event, and the most thorough, informative historical narration available, as only the world-famous Anne Frank Huis Museum could provide. From her happy life in Frankfurt to the history of the diary's publication, this film turns what might otherwise seem "just a story" into the living memorial of a most extraordinary little girl.
Originally entitled "Dear Kitty".
The Holocaust and Yad Vashem
While many know the figures and the general history associated with the Holocaust ("Shoah" in Hebrew, literally "catastrophe"), few understand the political developments that led up to the rise of Hitler and the drastic social changes that he managed to introduce practically overnight. "The Holocaust and Yad Vashem" chronicles these developments and the "Zeitgeist" ("spirit of the times") of the German people from the end of World War I through the rise to power of the Nazis, their polemical speeches, book-burnings, terrifying rallies, the "German war machine's" weapons manufacture and European conquest. From the seemingly innocent faces of the Nazi Youth Movement to the anything but innocent Nurenberg race laws, "The Holocaust and Yad Vashem" makes clear once and for all the social and political changes that turned this "most enlightened nation" into an army of bloodthirsty monsters.
Behind this "proud nationalist triumph" lurk the scenes from Jewish life under their rule: in the ghettos, on transports, in the concentration, work, and death camps. The true decimation of European Jewry becomes strikingly clear when these scenes of misery and death are contrasted with those of a flourishing, productive, and most happy European Jewish community before the war. Many of these brave souls would not give up their right to the pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness without a fight: the Jewish Underground, resistance and freedom fighters, and the various ghetto uprisings are equally portrayed as crucial elements in the Jewish struggle to maintain morale... and survival. Beginning and ending at Yad Vashem, the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Jerusalem, the film is itself the best answer to the question of who really triumphed in this most horrid catastrophe.
"Yad", the word for "memorial" in the Holy Language, is also the word for "hand"... and truly our remembrance, the cry of "Never Again!", depends not upon empty words, but upon our actions.

Masters in Public Health/MBA Combined Degree Program
The College of Business and the Program in Public Health have created a combined MPH/MBA program. The purpose of the combined degree program is to prepare students for a management career in the health care field. The joint MPH/MBA program is a 72-73 credit program which combines a 45 credit MPH degree and a 48 credit MBA degree. The combined degree includes 21-23 credits of overlap (see below for details), which reduces the total number of credits in the joint program from 93 to 72-73 credits. Students can choose either the Evaluative Sciences or the Public Health Practice concentration in the MPH program.Admissions Process:
The admissions process starts with an application to the Program in Public Health. Please indicate that you wish to participate in the combined degree program. Those applicants accepted by the Program in Public Health for the MPH degree are then forwarded to the College of Business for review and approval. The College of Business accepts the admissions information required by the public health program so that applicants will not have to provide any further information or take any additional tests for the combined program. We expect students seeking to enter the combined degree program to address their interests in such a program in their personal statement, which is part of all graduate student applications.Completion of Program:
The College of Business currently offers a 48 credit MBA degree (16 courses) for students with an advanced degree such as an MPH. Students in the combined MPH/MBA degree complete MBA courses including finance, financial accounting, marketing, leadership, technological innovation, operations management, ethics and law, and business planning.
The Program in Public Health currently offers a 45 credit MPH degree program. Students in the combined degree program complete MPH courses including research methods, biostatistics, epidemiology, environmental and occupation health, social and behavioral determinants of health, data management, and demography. Students complete both the MBA Industry project and the MPH Practicum.
Students receive both degrees upon completion of the entire program. If a student decides to leave before completing both degrees, he or she would receive the MPH or MBA if he or she completed the course requirements for one of the degrees.

We decided to get some winter sun and as every single flight to Tenerife was booked we plumped for Ibiza.
Having been to Spain over Christmas and New Year once before we departed with the understanding that almost everything would be shut around Christmas and Boxing Day and so took loads of books and games to play. With my daughter (12) and her friend (13) in tow, all that mattered was their ipads and electronic gizmos but on arrival they were a bit dismayed that there was no wifi and that the TV was in Spanish.
They quickly recovered when they saw the communal pool and also the vast array of beaches all over the place - they were also mollified by the endless supply of chocolate and crisps we bought at the Mercadona and by my cordon bleu cooking (well I did my best). My wife was happy with a ton of Turron and freshly squeeze orange juice.
They made videos of the spectacular weather and of my snoring so they were happy.

Dirk Nowitzki was in regular-season form with 30 points and 10 rebounds, Caron Butler scored 14 of his 22 points in the fourth quarter, and the Dallas Mavericks beat the Chicago Bulls 88-83 on Thursday night.
Butler's 22-footer with 5:22 left gave Dallas (1-1) the lead for
good at 76-75. He scored his team's next seven, capped by a
3-pointer with 3:14 to play that extended the Mavericks' advantage
to 83-75.
Derrick Rose scored 17 points for Chicago (0-2). Center Joakim
Noah, who agreed to a five-year, $60 million contract extension on
Sunday, had 13 points, eight rebounds and six assists.
Nowitzki's 3-pointer with 2.3 seconds left in the second quarter

Dhokham Chushi Gangdruk
When the Communist Chinese government ordered its so-called People's Liberation Army (PLA) to march into Tibet in 1949, the people of Tibet's eastern region were the first to experience the threat of Chinese invasion. The people of Kham and Amdo rose up and confronted the Chinese army at the onset of the invasion of our motherland. Pitched battles were fought under the command and banner of local chieftains. However, there was no proper organization and strategy, no unity, and only uncoordinated efforts to combat the common enemy were made.
In 1956 the Chinese introduced the so-called "Democratic Reforms" in Kham starting with the eastern region of Tibet. They began to impose communist ideology and destroyed Tibetan religion and culture. They conducted mass arrests and executions of Tibetan religious leaders and other prominent leaders. People of these areas could not tolerate the brutal Chinese atrocities and rose up in arms against them. Disorganized and ill-equipped volunteer fighters could not withstand the mighty Chinese army that overwhelmed them, grasped their territory and spread like oil drops on paper. Volunteer defenders gradually retreated toward Central and Western Tibet.

Research Institute of Science, Lao PDR, Holds First Ever Exhibition on Sustainable Development
An exhibition on sustainable development and environmental conservation was organized and conducted at the Research Institute of Science (RIS), Prime Minister's Office, Vientiane, from January 13-20, 2006. This was the first of its kind in the country. The exhibition consisted of posters and displays; tours of the nursery and tissue culture lab; and quizzes for school students. The posters and displays featured the following research topics conducted by the RIS:
- Commercial production of Aquilaria (agarwood)
- Tissue culture of various crop plants
- Dye and traditional medicinal plants
Other botanical institutions such as the Faculty of Science and Faculty of Forestry (National University of Lao PDR) participated in the exhibition by providing additional posters and displays such as herbarium specimens and live flowering orchids.
A total of 560 people attended the exhibition, of which 415 were from schools or universities. A highlight of the exhibition were informal quiz sessions after the students had toured the exhibition. Those who correctly answered the environmental questions were given pens and notebooks for school. A questionnaire was filled in by each person attending the exhibition. All of the comments were very positive – none of those attending had ever attended an exhibition before. A great many wanted to see more exhibitions in the future and were hungry for more information about science and nature in their own country. Favourite topics at the exhibition included: infection of Aquilaria by fungi to produce valuable agarwood; orchids and endangered plants; dye plants; and medicinal plants.
Here is what some of the high school students attending had to say:
"I never knew that such research was conducted in my own country. I am inspired to learn more about plants."
"This exhibition is very good for all Lao people. It is important to make them love nature."
"I didn't know there were endangered plants such as orchids in my own country!"
"Please hold this exhibition in schools and in the provinces so more people can learn about plants and how we can use them for sustainable development."

MEQUON — Southeastern Wisconsin got a bit of a break from the extreme heat Tuesday, July 24th, after a heat advisory was in effect for most of Monday, but the heat returns on Wednesday, with forecasted temperatures nearing 100°. A heat advisory has been issued for Wednesday, beginning at 11:00 a.m. With a handful of extreme heat stretches just this month, some consumers say they're having difficulty finding some of the things they need.
Jeff Sterling, owner of Sterling True Value Hardware says air conditioners have been "flying off the shelves" this summer. He says he's struggled to keep crucial items needed to beat blistering temperatures stocked on his shelves.
"The warehouses have been out of a lot of stuff with the demand for keeping lawns watered and people cool," Sterling said.
Another item that is difficult to find of late — kiddie pools!
"We had kiddie pools in, but a lot of them are selling right away. A lot of people do use them for their kids and a lot for their dogs," Sterling said.
With this scorching summer, supply cannot keep up with demand, and even trying to get relief from the heat the old-fashioned way has been difficult.
"We're selling lots of sprinklers and lots of hoses. Some sprinkler have been out of the warehouse for more than a month, so it's unbelievable," Mequon Ace Hardware owner Kristin Nell said.
Nell says several extreme heat waves, coupled with the drought have depleted the store's summer stock.
"Shop around, keep calling, keep coming back. We can take a list and maybe order products," Nell said.
Both stores say they will make orders for items that they are totally out of for the season.

Video:How to Make Southern Buttermilk Biscuitswith Michael Crane
Learn how to make the best homemade southern buttermilk buscuits that taste great with any meal.See Transcript
Transcript:How to Make Southern Buttermilk BiscuitsHi, I'm Jemme Beth Aldrige for About.com Food.
Today I'm going to show you how to make Southern Buttermilk Biscuits. These are the ingredients you'll need to make buttermilk biscuits:
A pinch of salt, one and a half cups of flour, one tablespoon of baking powder, half a tablespoon of baking soda, two tablespoons of Crisco, and one cup of buttermilk.
Before you get started you're going to want to butter your pan with some Crisco. Preheat your oven to 400, put your pan in the oven and bring it back out so the Crisco is melted. That way you can have it ready for the biscuits.
When mixing the ingredients in the bowl, make sure you mix the dry ingredients before you mix the wet ingredients, and remember to add the buttermilk slowly.
So now you're going to mix the dry ingredients together. Pour your one and a half cups of flour, half a tablespoon of baking soda, one tablespoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt into a bowl.
Next you add the Crisco, and half a cup of buttermilk. Add a little more, a little at a time. So this is about the consistency you are going to want- it's sticky but still firm.
Next you're going to flour up your cloth. You can use a dish rag or an old pillow case works just great. Just powder it with flour. You want to get a good amount of flour because your biscuit dough is definitely sticky. You're going to shake the powder onto the dough.
Then knead the dough three times. Now I don't have a rolling pin, so I'm going to use a bottle instead. You roll the dough to about half an inch thickness. Now you take a glass and flour the bottom of the glass. Place the glass (rim) in the dough and pull out.
Finally, you take the biscuit, and put it in the melted Crisco, and then flip it over. You're going to want to keep them in the oven for about 15 minutes, but check them because you want to notice them rising and getting fluffy, and they should start to turn a golden color. Make sure they don't get too brown.

An uncircumcised penis has its foreskin intact. An infant boy with an uncircumcised penis does not need special care. Normal bathing is enough to keep it clean.
Do not pull back (retract) the foreskin for cleaning in infants and children. This may injure the foreskin and cause scarring that could make retraction painful and difficult later in life.
Teenage boys should be taught to gently retract the foreskin during bathing and clean the penis thoroughly. After cleaning the penis, dry the area completely. Then, it is very important to pull the foreskin back over the head of the penis. Otherwise, the foreskin can slightly squeeze the head of the penis, causing swelling and pain (paraphimosis). This needs medical treatment.

Lady Bears reach state quarters
Chatham Central kept on rolling through the NCHSAA 1A state softball tournament Friday night and the Lady Bears are doing it without their best lineup on the field.
The Lady Bears (25-0) blanked Yadkin Valley Conference mate Gray Stone Day 8-0 to reach the state quarterfinals. Kelsey Hayes pitched the Lady Bears to their sixth straight shutout as Hayes was helped out by an errorless defense. In the middle of the Bear batting order, Cayley Oldham and Jessica Cockman combined for five hits and five RBI.
On Tuesday in the elite eight, head coach Mike Langone expects to have Erin Sugg, his four-year starting catcher, back behind the plate, which will mean Antonia Nelson moving from catcher to shortstop and a couple other switches for Chatham Central.
Thanks to the Lady Bear talent and depth different players in different spots, such as Nelson at catcher and Katelyn Moody at shortstop, hasn't hurt Chatham Central one bit.
"I have a good problem right now," Langone said, "everyone on this team's done the job when we've called on them. This team isn't one girl, it's all 15 of them."
Just because Sugg wasn't on the field, due to a concussion, she was completely in the game. With her experience behind the plate and teaming with Hayes, Sugg called pitches to Nelson and was another coach all the way around for the Lady Bears.
"That's leadership. Some players, if they're injured, they might just sit back on the bench, but Erin still wants to contribute and help the team. Erin and the other six seniors understand the significance of what we're doing now," Langone said.
Hayes and Gray Stone starting pitcher Katie Kepley traded zeroes for two innings. Hayes kept cruising through the Lady Knight third and Kepley was an out away from keeping it 0-0 through three.
Lady Bear leadoff hitter Kayla Williamson singled to keep the inning alive. An error, a dropped liner by the Lady Knight shortstop, then a borderline hit/error, on a soft fly into short center, led to a 1-0 Lady Bear lead.
Cockman hit a flare inside the left field line for a single and a run. Hayes followed with a sharp shot into center making it 3-0 CC when the inning should've ended with no such rally.
The Lady Bear bats didn't need help the rest of the evening. In the fourth, Evan Moody's double, a blast off the fence in left field, then a triple by Hanna Batten to the right field corner, stoked another three-run inning.
With one on and two down un the CC sixth, Cockman hit her second homer in two games and third of the season, hitting a drive to the left of the 210-foot sign in center.
Hayes held the Lady Knights to five hits and no walks. Getting runners on second and third with one out in the sixth was as much a threat as Gray Stone put together.
The Lady Knights (12-12) were a wild card seed from the YVC. This was the third match-up of the season between CC and Gray Stone.
"It's tough," Langone said of playing a familiar foe for the third time, "we know each other really well and this is their (Gray Stone's) best season they've ever had as far reaching the third round."
Oldham went 3-for-4 with three singles, getting two runs and two RBI. Cockman went 2-for-4 with three RBI. Williamson scored twice. Batten went 2-for-3 with a triple, a run and a RBI.
For the first time in the tournament, Chatham Central will have to hit the road for the quarters.
Southern Piedmont Conference champion Bessemer City (15-12) beat North Stokes (24-3) 3-2 Friday night and will host the Lady Bears on Tuesday.

WHITLEY COUNTY — With two weeks left of high school football, two Whitley County high schools are in the driver's seat for conference championships.
Whitko (5-2, 5-0) and Churubusco (7-0, 5-0) are both the only unbeatens left in their respective conferences, the Three Rivers Conference (TRC) and Northeast Corner Conference (NECC).
Whitko beat North Miami last week, 49-35. Rochester, the only other unbeaten in the TRC heading into the week, fell to Tippecanoe Valley 42-21.
The Wildcats take on the Zebras this week. Rochester still has something to play for, as a win would keep the Zebras in the chase for a conference championship.
Whitko plays Tippecanoe Valley in week 9. As the three schools head into the season's final games, all three are still in play for a potential conference championship.
The Wildcats can clinch the title outright with a win this week and a Tippecanoe Valley loss to North Miami.

GUTHRIE, OKLAHOMA — Except for the regular movement of his right arm Charles Keller stays still as a stature when he draws.
A pen and ink man hates to make mistakes.
"One little mistake and you might as well throw it away," he says.
But the permanency of ink lends itself quite well to what Keller draws.
His latest sketch is an old Colt model Dragoon Pistol.
There is a lot of detail there, but look at the background, stone and mortar, as permanent as building blocks get.
Keller agrees, "To me it's just a natural for pen and ink."
The artist never did much drawing at all until he started going to Guthrie for groceries and errands a decade ago.
Something about the buildings here caught his exacting eye. "I just had to start drawing them," he says.
He took a few pictures and then took them home to study.
"The shading is difficult," he describes. "It takes a lot of practice to get it down."
One of the first pictures he took was of West Harrison Avenue.
It took a while but Keller thought he got pretty close.
"Some of them are very difficult, but I haven't found one I couldn't tackle," he says.
He bought and sold flowers for a career, but in lakeside retirement Charles Keller sought out things that wouldn't wilt.
In changing times he came to appreciate the kinds of places that haven't changed much over time.
Someone looking at his sketches a century ago would probably know right where they were.
"If I'm not happy with it," he says, "then I can't bring myself to show anybody."
Over much of the past decade Charles sketched most of Guthrie. It's buildings have stood the test of time.
Keller's detailed artwork seems just as solid. "I really enjoy what I do," he says.
