yeah it is but toy story 3 was good however, they took out some characters such as RC that cute little car for no reason. They took out Etch but why would a teenager keep that? so i guess they had to take that out. Wheezy wouldn't have been wanted by andy so he was out too. But Bo Peep was my favourite character, i think she couldn't suvive daycare and escape, and the director said that he took her out because andy and molly wouldn't want her anymore. But maybe she could have stayed in molly's room as a minor character. But molly did not keep her Barbie so why would she keep a nursery rythme lamp? I could be wrong what do you think?
i guess so. one of my old childhood
disney favorites is the little mermaid. grew up with it. i just saw the little mermaid 2. it's kind of just, well RUBBISH. it's the same thing as the first one just diffirent characters. you know what i mean?
It's a tough call - I like all the animated movies. However, I think my favorite animated Disney Movie is Sleeping Beauty. I enjoy the fact that the score, including the songs, is taken straight from Tchaikovsky's beautiful ballet of the same name; also, I enjoy the rather obvious references to Christianity towards the end. Flora practically quotes a verse about the Sheild and Sword of righteousness from somewhere in one of Paul's Epistles.
My favorite CGI Disney/Pixar Movie is a tie between Up and The Incredibles. My main reasons for liking them hinge on the creativity of storylines and the amazing visual effects. I especially like Up because it came out shortly after a loved one who looked very much like Ellie (the elderly lady) passed away; the reminder that we still have lives and adventures to live even after tragedy was definitely a comfort.
My favorite live action Disney movie is, hands down, The Muppets' Christmas Carol. The songs are just so good, even taken apart from the movie; also, the humor and the sensitivity shown towards the timeless story. Also, It's the only version of the tale I've seen that has Charles Dickens himself in the story and telling it.
(For the record, my favorite animated movies of all time are Arthur Christmas and How to Train Your Dragon; neither are Disney, I know, but still two astounding and touching stories)
not really... a short of a movie is not a movie....
I would give How to Train Your Dragon a 1/10 because i think the plot was hard to understand and it was cheesy.
In my opinion, How to Train Your Dragon was one of the best films in the decade. The plot was so great, animation was supeb, and the score was beatiful.
that was disney? wasnt that dreamworks???
Yes, it was. I know. I was just responding to cheesehead302's comment.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... k :P
I love the score of HTTYD. I actually asked for (and recieved) it on CD as a gift this christmas. But I think my favorite animated movie to date is Arthur Christmas.
Well, we all have an opinion, right?
yeah i guessa just be careful cause disney and dreamworks are very different
Yeah, I get Disney and Dreamworks mixed up.
heres a tip so u dont forguet: disney sucks but drewamworks rocks! that y modo
heres a tip so u dont forguet: disney sucks but drewamworks rocks! that my modo
What isn't to like about disney, especially classic Disney, the animation they were doing in the 30s and 40s is some of the greatest artistic achievments ever. Disney really focuses on their characters to make them absoultley real and perfect, something which I think dreamworks lacks.
yeah but that was BEFORE! today, they dont care about quality they only care about quantity and winning money! they even copy others ideas and act like its theirs! they keep coping movies to win money! that wasnt the walter disney spirit! they ruined disney by putting series into it!
When Michael Eisner took over as the CEO he was all about the money, but now that Eisner is out of there and Bob Iger is the CEO they really are turning around and I think really making a comeback.
I agree with Ian. Besides, even when Eisner was in charge, the movie's were still amazing and they didn't care all about money when it came to that. They were trying to get some money off of the HORRIBLE t.v. shows, though, but still, the movies are amazing.
Besides, it seems Dreamworks is trying to get some money, making 5 films revolving around the Shrek story.
I think they should just let Shrek go! The first one was good . The second one was okay . The third one was terrible . I didn't even bother seeing the fourth one .
The fourth Shrek was
if you know what i mean.
they said that the 2nd one was better than the 1st on a review or whatever and i like the 2nd movie! i didnt like shreck the third much but i though aurthur was cute... anyways, my point is that they had to contineu the story! it wasnt finished yet! now it is and the fourth one wasnt THAT bad, i liked better than the 3rd one. anyways, that still dosent change my opinion bout disney cause they made ALOT of garbage. well.. dreamworks made garbage too like bee movie and that mosquito going to the moon story... whatever, i think dreamworks is better anyways. i just HATE disney channel!
Which is exactly why if they make a second How to Train Your Dragon I'm going to be enraged.
i luv PIXAR incredibles, old? probably Pinochio
ok, pixar is al right in my books but disney alone NOT
@harryboy8080 Considering HTTYD is based off the first in a multi-volume book series, having a sequel seems to make good sense to me.
I don't care what anybody says, shreck is awesome. (My opinion)
cheesehead's words of wisdom
YaY!!!!!! I got words O' wisdom.
JEZUZ! that ALOT of shrek!
416 Shreck to be excact.
? u COUNTED?
Accually i counted down (32 rows) and counted across ( 18 rows I think, can't remember) and pulled up the ol' windows calculator and multiplied.
why didnt u just do it in your head? this might sound weird but i kinnah hate the calcullator. if its something as simple as addition or multiplication i do it in the head!
Hey puppylove are you good at maths?
yeah! i hate it, but im good at it.

Some cancer patients starting a new chemotherapy regimen are likely to develop blood clots, also known as venous thromboembolism (VTE). Blood clots can cause symptoms and can occasionally be life-threatening. The purpose of this study is to determine if a daily injection of a blood-thinner, dalteparin, for 12 weeks can safely and effectively reduce the frequency of blood clots. Dalteparin is currently approved for prevention of blood clots following surgery and in hospitalized patients but not specifically for cancer outpatients.

Mercedes-Benz Concept Style Coupe First Look
Bring back the Supra and the FJ40, and watch the profits roll in.
they wont build it
The Supra looks nice in general except for the front grille. It seems like it's a design the people at Toyota like since some of the Lexus models have that design and of course they are using it in the future. The hybrid seems nice for fuel economy and has potential to bring in more customers since many companies are experimenting with hybrid variants of their cars. However, I remember the previous Supra could be built into 1000+hp monsters. I feel like using a hybrid system could limit on what could be done with the engine.
Love to have a Supra again; but not taken by the new Toyota Supra front grid. Just looks as ugly as the Lexus spindle grid. Hopefully, they will change it by 2014 to something at least attractive looking. By the way; I like AWD since I live in the Midwest!
I looked a picture. Toyota Supra a Concept. Those 400 horsepower as that big motor. I notice Supra in 2003-04 someone had in American. I can't remember a year Supra toyota.
If it looks like the artist sketch then it will sell. If it looks like the test car then it will bomb......Yes Toyota quit making a super electric hybrid wind powered sports cars. The Prius is selling and the battery is a nightmare cost, so its better if you just slap a V6 or V8 mid engine and have it look like the sketch......I only wish GM would take some design ideas from these artist sketches and maybe design a decent American mid engine...mid engine cannot be that hard to accomplish.....GM sux...!!
Hopefully the GRMN proto never sees production since it looks like some kind of sad insect...
Still disgusted with the auto industry's movement away from the original stick and clutch. To me an automatic is just no fun. A stick with a clutch gets the driver fully engaged in the driving experience, driving an automatic anything is just like "going for a ride" rather than truly driving. No vehicle with an automatic is worth driving to me. Even though we know roughly only 5% of drivers share my opinion, I can't for the life of me figure out why Lexus, Mercedes and Jaguar would just discard a potential 5% boost in sales. A new Supra without a 6MT would clearly be a no go for me. I'll stick with my Stillen 370Z
I agree with Bagyo's comment. The last Supra is truly a beast untamed when it comes to tuning and pushing it's power to the extreme, it will even put a Suzuki Hayabusa in it's rear view mirror a few feet behind it. Enough to put a Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 to shame... Go ahead build the new Supra but NOT a hybrid version, please!
Looks like it's Suckin' up debris from the road !
It's not a Supra without rwd and a turbocharged inline six. Also with the poor performance numbers of the Lexus LFA, if Toyota makes a new Supra now they will have to justify the $350k price difference. That means it will under perform for a $60,000 sports car.
Why not just build a bigger coupe on the RWD platform of the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ,with a new Subaru DI 3.5L F6 400-450hp engine.
HYBRID? REALLY TOYOTA? YOU IDIOTS!You just produced what could arguably be a fantastic sports car (FR-S) which is going to have so much soul, and now you are taking a LEGEND and pooping on it. Next thing you know Nissan will follow up with a GTR-iVSpec hybrid crapster.... Hating the auto industry right now.
This is not a Supra!Supra = twin turbo, inline six, RWD, 6 speed manual.This concept is more like an AWD Prius with a big engine.
I don't know whats wrong with Toyota and Honda, they both think they need some super-hybrid-futuristic-electro-4WS-4WD-electric motor per each wheel-gas motor for front wheel-etc.. CARS!!!??? Seriously, its simple! NSX, make another one! Same formula as before but with either a high rev V8, V10 or turbo'd V6... PERIOD! And to Toyota, same shit as before, just more power! PERIOD! Honda/Acura drives me completely nuts, they have forgotten how to design cars, ever since the Legends, NSX's, Integras, they've gone downhill.
I loathe CVT tranny's. OMG, i don't know why anyone would buy a car with one. They are the most irritating and annoying things on the planet in my mind. I'd take an old school 4-speed auto over a CVT any day of the week.
OMG!!! NOT CVT.. Otherwise looks stunning...
Everything about this makes no logical sense to me.
A CVT in a sports car?
Damn it Toyota!You just got something right. Forget about the CVT! I want a 4 seat FR-S with a flat six rated at 300+ hp. Then make a twin turbo version for Lexus with 500+ hp.
it really is a shame but with the world in its current state, the auto industry must follow suit. There is just wayyy too many things wrong with this article. Shame on toyota for trying to make things so damn complicated with this car. You guys want a guaranteed seller? Call it the Supra again. Make only 2 different models available. One low cost (base) model with a turbo 4/naturally aspirated 6 to make around 300 hp- rear wheel drive. to start at 30k. and a premium model with a twin turbo'd v6 making around 400 hp, rear wheel standard with maybe an option of awd if anyone actually wants this ridiculous technology. I am all about point and shoot driving and believe awd is an awsome option to have. But keep it simple. think subaru/mitsubishi awd systems. If you guys really want to include all the things i read on this article, it will be a good thing they arent thinking of calling it a supra.
Hey Supra now it's time for you to destroy all that muscle car gerontocracy! Hmm maybe not price-wise. However it suppose to be Toyota's Audi RS8 for half its price
Do automakers listen what people want? We want a car like the 370 z pony car competitor? They should just use the GT86 frame stretch out to 180 inch with 3000 lbs to 3200 v6 from the IS 350 with 306hp. Price it from the low 30's and v8 or turbo making 400 hp. Everybody will be happy. No they want to give us mini cars with 200hp for people under 6 feet to fit in.
CVT = Fail
I think the current GT86/FR-S should have been marketed as the new Supra, affordable and fun. $60,000 is overpriced and it won't sell with all the 60K cars out there now, especially with a hybrid CVT.
@cinoi actully just checked google for shits and giggles and there is info going back as far as 2005 on this
@cinowhen toyota first showed the supra concept back in 07 they had said they will be licensing sh-awd through honda. i dont know if that is what they still plan to do but you can always google it im sure there is more than one publication that listed this infothe nsx might not be out yet but a majority of the tech has been out for some time
@hondacivicsiguy Toyota steal AWD from NSX? How so? NSX is not even in production yet.
So when Honda copies something from anyone, you guys point it out, but when Toyota steals the all wheel drive from the NSX nobody cares.
the car market doesnt need any more super cars. thats the only segment that has not grown lately.
if its not a turbo 6 and rear wheel drive i'm not interested. return to to sender. keep your crap toyota.
What!!!! All that time for a Supra successor and this is what comes up?!!! Hell No!!!! I'm a Lexus/Toyota enthusiast all the way, but this Supra iteration is an abomination!!! The late great Supra was a monster to be reckoned with. Ran with Porsches, Corvettes, you name it. A real high-tech for its day, tune-able, drivers car. HYbrid, CVT, and Convertible does not make me think of a Supra at all. Back to the drawing board please Toyota. C'mon i got faith that you can build another legend. It should run with the best like old times. Mind i remind you the Toyota Supra used to run with the Nissan Skyline GTR back in its hay day. So the new R35 GTR is what Toyota needs to aim for once again, among other high end sports cars.
Toyota should really just take the LFA body(looks like modern day Supra) and add a back seat, take out some of the expensive lightweight materials, and either take their 3.5L V6 and twin turbocharge it to stay close to the original OR take the 5L out of the IS-F and twin turbocharge it. It just needs at least 450HP, twin turbos, and stick with RWD.
All you guys do is bitch. Seriously. The thing hasnt even left concept phase yet.
(1) I don't want a hybrid.(2) I don't want a convertible.(3) I don't want a CVT!This Concept = Fail.
Akio Toyoda owes a certain someone a 10 second car...this ain't going to cut it.And please god don't add the hybrid crap to this car, just adds weight, cost, and complexity for no reason. Someone buying this car does not give a crap about MPG or they would just buy a shitty Prius.Hybrid crap.....300+lbsTwo Turbo's and a huge intercooler....130lbs...ish. :)
That is so freakin Ricey! Just give us the last gen Supra with a New Powerplant and I'm all over it. Any design that doesn't resemble the MK4, will just not be Suprafy'd.
Toyota don't call this a Supra successor because it truly would desecrate the name of the original legend!
This car is so hideously, unredeemably ugly in both pictures that it could have 1000 supercharged HP and do 0-60 in 1 second and I couldn't care less.
A hybrid, heh?Next!
I was excited at first until I dug into the article. Toyota, please don't put a CVT in a Supra.. that would be a huge mistake. Also, hybrid might work but you need keep the Supra tunable so please.. please engineer in some overhead and you probably want to keep this force inducted.
Y u all mad, tho?
Okay Toyota, expand on whatever you are doing with the FR-S/BRZ/GT-86. Make it a little bigger, add a little more power, keep the old taillights, 0-60 in 4.5 seconds and keep it cheap. There, you are welcome Toyota.
CVT?! What. The. Crap?! I'm pretty sure the DEFINITION of "Supra" = moderately-priced, highly mod-able, turbocharged fun-mobile. Not overpriced V6 hybrid with a CVT. If this information is actually accurate, then fail Toyota, FAIL.
So rumors now, released when? 2020?
Toyota.... build it. You can use some "cool" in your lineup. But please don't refer to this car as a Supra successor. I'm not going to hate on the car though.
Did any of you guys read the article? It won't be an actual hybrid, it'll just be RWD with electric motors in the front. Electric motors have instant torque, which means this "hybrid" setup will actually boost its speed. Can any non-GM company make you guys happy?
I'm surprised it isn't front wheel drive with the hybrid system powering the rear wheels. Everything else is wrong so why not put the drive-train backwards?It's a very simple formula. Front engine, I6 (make it 3.5L-3.7L) sequential turbos, rear wheel drive. That's all it needs. DCT is fine, $50K loaded would work.
CVT....is this joke? It's not April 1st, seriously....joking right.

His truck then slammed into another truck, being driving by Myles Whynot from New Brunswick.
The fuel tanks in Johnson's truck exploded on impact.
Bystanders rushed in to pull him from the wreckage.
Both Johnson and Whynot were taken to Southern Maine Medical Center in Biddeford to be treated for cuts and bruises.
Johnson also received treatment for his medical condition.
The rest area remained open while crews knocked down the flames and cleaned up the mess.

Another man's treasure – Lee Roy Hartung Collection sells for $3.95 million
It could be rightfully said that the sale of the late Lee Roy Hartung Collection was one of the highly anticipated auction events of the Fall. And for good reason: The scope of what lay strewn about Hartung's estate in Glenview, Illinois, was not fully realized until the staff of Auctions America by RM – the Auburn, Indiana-based company tasked with the sifting, arranging and selling of Hartung's museum – had begun the monumental effort. Word quickly spread of the mountains of automotive parts; everything from spark plugs to NOS connecting rods to fenders and wheels; rare and highly desirable motorcycles; an armada of Ford Model A's; petroleum memorabilia; dealer literature; bicycles; and an odd arrangement of home furnishings. Even kids' toys were unearthed. The list was seemingly endless. In all, just shy of 1,600 individual lots.
With regard to complete two- and four-wheeled vehicles – meaning most, if not all, of the parts were still in place – all would require some form of mechanical restoration, and a good chunk of those desperately needed a complete stem-to-stern, ground-up restoration. No matter, as Auctions America officials reported that bidders from nine countries and 46 states descended upon Glenview for the three-day sale, held this past weekend.
Sticking with the topic of completed vehicles, a grand total of 75 automobiles had their moment under the stage lights, 58 of which found new locations for less than $10,000. Topping the four-wheeled chart, however, was Lot 7549 – a Spohn-bodied 1950 Veritas BMW that fetched $195,000, which was also good enough for second on the overall top 10 list for the weekend. Second was the car pictured above: the 1950 Edwards R-26 Roadster at $143,750; the Edwards placed third on the overall top 10 (it turns out that these were the only two cars to make the overall top 10). Rounding out the top 10 among the offered automobiles, including a tie for 10th:
Lot 7530 – 1940 Ford Deluxe convertible, $31,050
Lot 7538 – 1931 Ford Model A Deluxe roadster, $25,300
Lot 7562 – 1934 Ford Phaeton, $25,300
Lot 7557 – 1959 Bentley Saloon (seen below), $18,400
Lot 7525 – 1932 Ford Model B Tudor sedan, $18,400
Lot 7532 – 1909 Ford Model T, $15,525
Lot 7554 – 1925 Hertz Model D-1 five-passenger Touring, $12,650
Lot 7547 – 1929 Ford Model A Roadster Pickup, $12,075
Lot 7526 – 1931 Ford Model A Cabriolet, $12,075
The sale average, by way of comparison, among automobiles was $11,426.
A total of 48 motorcycle lots crossed the block (several lots were multi-bike sales), the top sale going to an exceptionally rare, twin belt drive 1911 Flying Merkel (Lot 6483) at $201,250; it also fetched top sale of the weekend.
Coming in second among the two-wheeled category was Lot 6489, a 1912 Harley-Davidson at $115,000; it was followed by Lot 6485, a 1911 Pope Model H hammered home at $83,375. Rounding out the rest of the top 10 motorcycles:
Lot 6472 – 1909 Sears, $66,125
Lot 6490 – 1938 Indian four-cylinder Rigid Frame, $64,400
Lot 6488 – 1926 Henderson Deluxe Fire Department, $63,250
Lot 6470 – 1915 Harley-Davidson two-speed one-cylinder, $57,500
Lot 6469 – 1904 Fabrique-Nationale, $55,200
Lot 6487 – 1913 Indian Twin, $55,200
Lot 6476 – 1928 Henderson four-cylinder, $54,625
A total of 23 motorcycle lots sold for less than $10,000, dropping that group's average sale price to $28,878.
To give you an idea of how low bidders were willing to go, Lot 7501 – a 1959 Edsel Ranger that was more of a parts car than restoration project – sold for just $230, while Lot 6456 – a 1979 Yamaha XS Eleven Special – gaveled for just two C-notes and a buck; considerably less than the $29,900 spent on a run of Arizona license plates.
According to Auctions America president Donnie Gould,
"We were honored to have been entrusted with the sale of the famed Lee Roy Hartung Collection and are very pleased with the results. The sale was a terrific celebration of one man's drive to collect and preserve American history. Collectors recognized the range of rare ownership opportunities the sale presented, as was reflected in the strong attendance and results. In addition to the automobiles, vintage motorcycles were a major component and focus of the collection. The prices realized for the examples on offer confirms the continued strength of the collectible motorcycle market."

CANTON The second suspect in a Nov. 17 ATM heist at St. Lawrence Universitys Brewer Bookstore has been captured in Louisiana, thanks to a tip from the public.
Joseph C. Lugo, 24, was taken into custody in Vermilion Parish on Monday afternoon after a citizen reported a suspicious person loitering, interim Canton Police Chief Victor N. Rycroft said. Investigators soon learned that Mr. Lugo was wanted in New York state.
Louisiana is divided into parishes rather than counties, with Vermilion in the southern part of the state. Maj. Darryl LeBlanc of the Vermilion Parish Sheriffs Office told the Times that Mr. Lugo was taken into custody there without incident early Monday afternoon, although further details were not immediately available.
Mr. Lugos capture follows nearly three months during which local police were working to track down the suspect, who was believed to have fled to Florida with about $17,000 from the stolen North Country Savings Bank automated teller machine.
Police have not said whether any of that money was recovered with Mr. Lugos arrest.
Further information is unavailable at this time regarding Lugos activities in Louisiana, but Canton Police had known for a few days now that Lugo was in that state, Mr. Rycroft said in a news release.
Canton Police are hopeful upon Lugos return to New York that they may learn more on how he had managed to elude police for such a period of time, Mr. Rycroft said.
Mr. Lugo, of DeKalb, and a second suspect, Brandon D. Crandall, 21, allegedly entered the bookstore vestibule at 92 Park St., wrenching the 265-pound ATM from the floor and severing its cables before hauling the machine out the front door and driving off in a pickup truck. The electronic cash dispenser had been loaded with $35,000 in $20 bills not long before the theft.
Investigators were questioning Mr. Crandall, of 31 Main St., in an unrelated drug case when he revealed information about the bank machine heist. His arrest on Nov. 21 led police to the battered and empty ATM in a field off Sykes Road. Its front door was scorched in spots and warped from being pried open after the lock was removed.
Investigators recovered $17,600 in cash with the arrest of Mr. Crandall, as well as a pound of marijuana and miscellaneous drug paraphernalia.
Police said they believed Mr. Lugo had the rest of the money. They also said he may have been armed, and may have fled the area on a motorcycle.
Extradition details were still being worked out Monday, Mr. Rycroft said, adding that it remained to be seen whether Mr. Lugo would waive extradition proceedings or contest his arrest.

The Barrens is a psychological thriller set in the dense Pine Barrens of southern New Jersey. The story follows Richard Vineyard (played by Stephen Moyer) as he takes his family on a camping trip where he encounters what he believes to be the mythological Jersey Devil. As the story progresses, it is unclear to the audience if they are watching Vineyard go insane, or a father who is heroically trying to save his family.
The film is the fourth collaboration between director Darren Lynn Bousman and cinematographer Joseph White. "Darren and I have developed such nuanced shorthand that our communication is often non-verbal," says White. "At this point, I know what he likes in terms of movement, contrast, saturation, tone and mood. The challenge has now become how to express these things in a different way than before. While I want there to be a thread connecting our work together, I want each film to feel like its own separate entity."
From the beginning, Bousman knew he wanted to shoot on smaller cameras to allow for a lot of movement. The filmmakers chose two ARRIFLEX SR3 cameras, CANON zooms, ZEISS Super Speeds, and KODAK VISION3 500T Color Negative Film 7219 and KODAK VISION3 250D Color Negative Film 7207. "The benefits of shooting film on a movie like this cannot be overstated," notes White. "To have the latitude to be able to hold backgrounds and highlights during ever-changing conditions meant we were able to complete the work in an artful yet expedient way. And shooting Super 16mm was such a joy as it gave us tiny, compact cameras that allowed us to have the grit and texture appropriate for the film while moving quickly at all times."
Shooting a film almost entirely outside with a lot of day work created its fair share of challenges. "We had to figure out how to hide things," White explains. "How do you play with light and shadow when there are no walls, no dark hallways, no narrow corridors? We had to create a film that was dark and menacing yet was just outside in the woods. We went for a heightened naturalism, and did our best to make the film manifest the character's madness."
Most of the shooting locations were quite a hike into the woods near Toronto. At times, the filmmakers could bring in larger sources and big back lights, but sometimes the location forced them to work with battery-operated sources and bounce. "Sometimes we would push the film a stop to give it a little extra contrast and grain, whereas other times we would overexpose slightly to tighten things up. I feel that we were successful in using the camera to convey this struggle within our leading man, switching from STEADICAM to handheld to dolly (operated by Brad Hruboska) to accentuate these shifts in his sanity.
"There were also several sequences where we used a huge amount of fog to just obscure what felt like miles of forest," the cinematographer adds. "There was a daytime scene, and I didn't want the viewer to know if they were watching something real or a nightmare. The fog was playing so bright and the actors were so dark, but it felt so good to the eye. I had to expose in such a way that meant you couldn't really make anything out in the monitors but I just knew it was all there. It was, and the scene came out beautifully, a real testament to how much detail film can retain in the extremes."
There is a haunting scene by a lake where Vineyard confronts a young man who has been following their group, hoping to gain the affections of his daughter. There is a complete 180-degree shift in Moyer's character as he almost completes his horrifying descent into madness while interrogating the boy. "The camera goes from being mostly static to having light, slow wrapping movements," explains White. "It eventually gets closer and closer as he closes the gap between them, and scares the hell out of this poor boy. The way we used the camera to capture this frightening dance between these two men was really effective, and I am really proud of it."
The Barrens can currently be seen on DVD or BLU-RAY.

mhGAP Evidence Resource Centre
The mhGAP Evidence Resource Centre contains the background material, process documents, and the evidence profiles and recommendations in electronic format and is organized around the mhGAP priority conditions. It integrates best available evidence with the individual clinical expertise through the use of scoping questions that explore many commonly seen issues in relation to health care. These questions have been chosen, systematically researched and reviewed extensively with the best available evidence by a selected panel of experts.
The recommendations based on evidence-based guidelines are the basis of the mhGAP- Intervention Guide for mental, neurological and substance use disorders in non-specialized settings. The evidence profiles have been updated in 2012 to include any new and relevant systematic reviews. The priority conditions identified by mhGAP are listed below.

Well, I'm not exactly new, but I've been away for a little while. What a lot of changes at OpenFree!
Anyone into cycling? I have a Bianchi Imola road bike for pedaling to work and back. If there's anyone in the San Francisco bay area with a need for speed, let me know.
Also used to do 35mm photography. The equipment is getting old so I was 1/2 way thinking of getting a technology refresh. Any suggestions? I'm now using an old Contax 167MT body (1994), a Tamron 35-135mm (f3.5-4.2) and Zeiss 50mm lens. Anyone willing to give a crash course in the new stuff? New digital features, brands etc. I don't need Nikon to show off, something in the mid range.

I can't recall what other movies I've watched in 2013, but I just watched this one yesterday and it was pretty amazing. I was expecting it to be poop, but I was so wrong. You know a movie is good when there are legit badass scary parts, and it's not even meant to be a scary movie.
The Great Gatsby was fantastic
I don't think I watched a lot of movies this year.

On August 12 the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals delivered what the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel termed "a stinging blow to [President Barack] Obama's signature achievement," declaring the ObamaCare individual mandate unconstitutional. The court thus "sided with 26 states ... that had sued to stop the law from taking effect," the paper said.
A three-judge panel of the court split in favor of the states — and the Constitution — and against the Obama administration. Chief Judge Joel Dubina, an appointee of President George H.W. Bush, and Circuit Judge Frank Hull, an appointee of President Bill Clinton, authored the panel's 207-page opinion. Circuit Judge Stanley Marcus, also a Clinton appointee (though he was first appointed to the federal bench by President Ronald Reagan), penned a 96-page dissent.
Dubina and Hull declared that "Congress exceeded its enumerated commerce power" when it "mandate[d] that individuals enter into contracts with private insurance companies for the purchase of an expensive product from the time they are born until the time they die." They added:

SDSU locks up No. 2 seed
The South Dakota State men's tennis team locked up the No. 2 seed at The Summit League Championships with a 4-1 win versus Fort Wayne.
The Jacks closed out the regular season with wins in must-win meets versus Western Illinois on Friday (5-2) and Fort Wayne on Saturday (4-1) in Macomb, Ill.
SDSU seized momentum in doubles with wins at No. 1 and No. 3 for the team point.
Andrea Boglić and Parker Lawley finished the season with an 8-6 win versus Daniel Kang and Joao Freitas at the top spot. The duo improved to 9-4 overall, the most wins of all SDSU doubles teams, and 3-1 in league play.
Henrique Pereira and Lucas Pereira dominated from the start and closed out Jonathan Raa and Andres Cobos at No. 3 with an 8-4 win. The result pushed their record to 8-2 overall, the best winning percentage of all SDSU doubles teams.
The No. 2 match between James Thorp/Mateus Moreira and Connor Andrews/Martin Muadi was tied 7-7 and unfinished.
In singles, SDSU needed only three wins for the team win and reached decision after four matches.
Boglić made it a clean sweep versus Kang at No. 1 singles with a 6-4, 6-1 win and improved to 2-1 in league matches.
Lawley needed three sets versus Andrews, but held on after a first-set win for a 6-1, 4-6, 6-4 result. He finished the season with a team-best 13 singles wins and remained undefeated in league play at 3-0.
The final SDSU point was not as contested, as H. Pereira won 6-0, 6-3 at No. 4 versus Freitas.
Fort Wayne scored its lone team point at No. 6 singles, but it was not enough as the Jacks won the meet and clinched the No. 2 seed.
"The boys came out ready to play again today and we had another complete match," head coach Michael Engdahl said. "I was worried we were going to have a letdown today after qualifying last night, but that was not the case at all. We started strong, were able to weather the storm when they made a push and finished strong. It's great to finish the season on a five-match winning streak and have some momentum going into the tournament. It will be fun to see what happens next weeknd."
As Coach Engdahl alluded, SDSU advanced to The Summit League Championships with its 11-10 overall record, 4-1 in the league. The Jacks finished the regular season on a five-meet winning streak, including three Summit League meets, and outscored its opponents 26-5 in those meets.
The remainder of the field is to be determined, but the Jacks are in for the second-straight season. The championships are set for Friday, April 26 and Saturday, April 27 in Fort Wayne, Ind.

The Graveyard Bookby Neil Gaiman
Winner of the 2009 Newbery Medal
Winner of The Hugo Award 2009
Staff Pick
Neil Gaiman has once again created a world filled with both dark humor and adventure. Nobody Owens, orphaned as an infant, is raised by the ghosts, ghouls, and werewolves of a graveyard. Exciting and oddly touching!
"The Graveyard Book is one of Gaiman's best novels. With some notable exceptions, like Stardust and Anansi Boys, I prefer Gaiman's comic book writing (i.e. the Sandman series) to his prose, but this book is a joy to read. The scenes and characters spring vividly to life in a way that helped mark Gaiman's reputation as a comic writer but doesn't always happen in his prose. Don't be surprised to find yourself wishing you could trade places with Bod and grow up in a cemetery, yourself." Chris A. Bolton, Powells.com (read the entire Powells.com review)
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Bod is an unusual boy who inhabits an unusual place — he's the only living resident of a graveyard. Raised from infancy by the ghosts, werewolves, and other cemetery denizens, Bod has learned the antiquated customs of his guardians' time — as well as their timely ghostly teachings — like the ability to Fade.
Can a boy raised by ghosts face the wonders and terrors of the worlds of both the living and the dead? And then there are things like ghouls that aren't really one thing or the other.
This chilling tale is Neil Gaiman's first full-length novel for middle-grade readers since the internationally bestselling and universally acclaimed Coraline. Like Coraline, this book is sure to enchant and surprise young readers as well as Neil Gaiman's legion of adult fans.
"A lavish middle-grade novel, Gaiman's first since Coraline, this gothic fantasy almost lives up to its extravagant advance billing. The opening is enthralling: 'There was a hand in the darkness, and it held a knife.' Evading the murderer who kills the rest of his family, a child roughly 18 months old climbs out of his crib, bumps his bottom down a steep stairway, walks out the open door and crosses the street into the cemetery opposite, where ghosts take him in. What mystery/horror/suspense reader could stop here, especially with Gaiman's talent for storytelling? The author riffs on the Jungle Book, folklore, nursery rhymes and history; he tosses in werewolves and hints at vampires — and he makes these figures seem like metaphors for transitions in childhood and youth. As the boy, called Nobody or Bod, grows up, the killer still stalking him, there are slack moments and some repetition — not enough to spoil a reader's pleasure, but noticeable all the same. When the chilling moments do come, they are as genuinely frightening as only Gaiman can make them, and redeem any shortcomings. Ages 10 — up." Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"This is an utterly captivating tale that is cleverly told through an entertaining cast of ghostly characters. There is plenty of darkness, but the novel's ultimate message is strong and life affirming." Booklist (Starred Review)
"Wistful, witty, wise — and creepy. Gaiman's riff on Kipling's Mowgli stories never falters, from the truly spine-tingling opening...to the melancholy, life-affirming ending....
"Gaiman writes with charm and humor, and again he has a real winner....The conclusion is satisfying, but it leaves room for a sequel. Everyone who reads this book will hope fervently that the very busy author gets around to writing one soon." VOYA
"The Graveyard Book is everything everyone loves about Neil Gaiman, only multiplied many times over, a novel that showcases his effortless feel for narrative, his flawless instincts for suspense, and above all, his dark, almost silky sense of humor." Joe Hill, author of Heart-Shaped Box
"The Graveyard Book is endlessly inventive, masterfully told and, like Bod himself, too clever to fit into only one place. This is a book for everyone. You will love it to death." Holly Black, co-creator of The Spiderwick Chronicles
"The Graveyard Book manages the remarkable feat of playing delightful jazz riffs on Kipling's classic Jungle Books. One might call this book a small jewel, but in fact it's much bigger within than it looks from the outside." Peter S. Beagle, author of The Last Unicorn
"It takes a graveyard to raise a child. My favorite thing about this book was watching Bod grow up in his fine crumbly graveyard with his dead and living friends. The Graveyard Book is another surprising and terrific book from Neil Gaiman." Audrey Niffenegger, author of The Time Traveler's Wife
"After finishing The Graveyard Book, I had only one thought — I hope there's more. I want to see more of the adventures of Nobody Owens, and there is no higher praise for a book." Laurell K. Hamilton, author of the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter novels
"Gaiman's gift for invention and wit are as present as ever....The Graveyard Book lacks the scope of Gaiman's best-known efforts, but some stories don't need to be epic; they simply need to be. (Grade: A)" The Onion A.V. Club
"The Graveyard Book is one of the most emotionally honest books I've yet to have read this year. Smart and focused, touching and wry, it takes the story of a boy raised by ghosts and extends it beyond the restrictive borders of the setting. Great stuff." A Fuse #8 Production
"Gaiman has created a rich, surprising, and sometimes disturbing tale of dreams, ghouls, murderers, trickery, and family." School Library Journal
"Gaiman has a true gift for narrative and a delightfully light touch, and there are humorous details along with spine-chilling ones. YAs will race through this fine tale and enjoy every magical, creepy moment." KLIATT
In his first full-length novel for middle-graders since the international bestseller Coraline, Neil Gaiman introduces Bod, a boy who is the only living resident of a graveyard. Can a boy raised by ghosts face the wonders and terrors of the worlds of both the living and the dead?
In this Newbery Medal-winning novel, Bod is an unusual boy who inhabits an unusual place — he's the only living resident of a graveyard. Raised from infancy by the ghosts, werewolves, and other cemetery denizens, Bod has learned the antiquated customs of his guardians' time as well as their ghostly teachings — such as the ability to Fade so mere mortals cannot see him.
Can a boy raised by ghosts face the wonders and terrors of the worlds of both the living and the dead? And then there are being such as ghouls that aren't really one thing or the other.
The Graveyard Book won the Newbery Medal and the Carnegie Medal and is a Hugo Award Winner for Best Novel.

Reviewer: Jake (Wisconsin)
I visited Sedona Arizona in High School and remember buying this candle not only for the fragrance but also because of the upcycled features it has. After it burned down to literally nothing, I didn't think I'd ever find it again. Thankfully I did, and I can't get enough of it!

|Where are they now? » Home
Wednesday, October 06, 2010Jamie Aid is returning home…again. She attended Samford University for one year in Birmingham, Ala., but returned to her hometown of Nashville to play tennis for Lipscomb University. After being away from Lipscomb at Ensworth High School for the past five years she returns to campus as the new women's assistant tennis coach. As she makes the transition Jamie spent some time with LipscombSports.com to talk about what makes Lipscomb such a special place.
What sport(s) did you play at Lipscomb? What years? Who were your coaches?
"I played tennis from 2003-2006. I played for Lynn Griffith."
What is your fondest athletic memory at Lipscomb?
"I have only been removed for five years, but when I look back I honestly don't remember a lot of the matches or whether I won or lost. What I do remember is experiences I had with my teammates. I think those are the kinds or memories you carry through your life when you step away from a college sport."
Who had the biggest influence on you during your athletic career at Lipscomb? How?
"Coach Griffith obviously had a lot of influence on me as an athlete. I got injured at Samford and I was looking to come home. Coach Griffith welcomed me to the Lipscomb program with open arms. I was able to medically redshirt for a year.
"Coach Griffith was committed to the entire person - body, mind and spirit. He was not interested in me just as an athlete, but he was interested in me, first and foremost, as a student-athlete. That is something that I have been able to carry over as a coach in the high school area and hopefully I will be able to carry it over as a coach in the college arena. The focus should be on academics first and athletics second.
"My Mom and Dad provided me with huge support in terms of athletics. I would have never been a college athlete if it was not for my family."
What is your fondest non-athletic memory from your time at Lipscomb?
"The day I made a 100 on Dr. Kent Johnson's exercise physiology exam and he called me in his office and asked me, `How in the world did you do this?'" That was a pretty funny way for me to exit the exercise science program upon that quote. I told him I just studied and the answers came to me."
What is the most valuable thing you gained or learned from your time at Lipscomb?
"You come in freshman year as an athlete and that is kind of your life. But in four years it is not going to be your life. What I took from Lipscomb was the importance of family, the importance of giving back to your community and the importance of really being involved."
Who was your favorite professor? Why?
"Dr. Johnson and Dr. Phillip Choate were my most challenging professors, but in a good way.
"I always liked to be pushed a little bit. Dr. Johnson was always able to push me. I appreciated that after the fact.
"A semester of my life was dedicated to anatomy with Dr. Choate. It was a little intense. I didn't know I could be pushed that far in academics. To know you can study, and that you can remember all of this material and put it into practice, makes you feel successful after you have taken the course."
Where do you live now?
"I live in Nashville. I was born and raised in Nashville."
Who is your employer? What is your occupation? What does your position entail?
"I start my new job at Lipscomb Oct. 18 where I will be serving as the assistant women's tennis coach. I will be working with players in practice and also working with recruiting and other duties.
"There is an excitement about having the opportunity to come back to a place that gave you so much and now you are in a position to give something back. It is a huge responsibility to work with these players. I look forward to teaching these girls and finding out what they can teach me as well."
Tell us about your family.
" I am single."
Jamie's e-mail address is email@example.com
2010-11 Where are they now?

The EOS Rebel T4i comes with a newly engineered, Vari-angle Touch Screen 3.0-inch Clear View LCD monitor II. Using the same capacitive technology as today's popular mobile devices, this new screen is touch-sensitive and delivers intuitive touch panel operation. Two finger touch gestures (multi-touch) can be used for zooming or changing images, menu and quick control settings can be accessed, and focus point and shutter release can be activated with the touch of a fingertip. Displaying fine detail (at approximately 1.04 million dots), this screen is perfect for composing and reviewing images. Thanks to a new, solid construction between the monitor's resin-coated cover and the liquid crystal display, reflections are minimized, and the display can be viewed, without glare, from any number of angles. The LCD's surface is treated with a smudge-resistant coating to minimize fingerprints and maintain a bright, clear image display.
Prices and specifications subject to change without notice. Actual prices are determined by individual dealers and may vary.

The Oklahoman's Jenni Carlson took questions from readers in today's Power Lunch Chat. Participate in our Power Lunch Chats Monday-Friday at 11 a.m. on NewsOK.com/Sports. Read the entire chat recap here.
Do you know what teams might be interested in Landry for the 2013 NFL draft?
Seems like there are plenty of NFL teams in need of a quarterback. Kansas City and Phoenix immediately pop to mind.
Since both are likely to have very high picks, they might look at trading down to get some other pieces from another team. But it seems like to me that any team that needs a quarterback would clearly look at Landry.
There might be one or two more pro-ready quarterbacks in this draft class. Matt Barkley from USC comes to mind. But past him, there aren't obvious quarterbacks who you'd pick above Landry.

Searchers on Sunday still were unable to locate a man feared dead after jumping into the Black River on Saturday evening in an unsuccessful attempt to save a young boy with whom he had been fishing.
The search for the 47-year-old man continued Sunday morning with Watertown police and firefighters combing the shoreline and divers from Jefferson Countys Special Tactics and Rescue team again entering the water at the Glen Park hydroelectric dam, according to a Watertown Police Department news release distributed early Sunday afternoon.
The dive ended with negative results, the release stated, noting the STAR team was assisted by Watertown and Glen Park firefighters and personnel at the hydroelectric facility.
The body of the boy, 5, was recovered Saturday night at the racks of the dam.
Periodic shore searches for the man will be conducted, the release states, and anyone with any information is asked to call the Watertown Police Department at 782-2233.
Police on Sunday continued to withhold the names of the victims, with no specific rationale given.
The release did note that the man was a friend of the childs family.
The incident occurred shortly after 6:30 p.m. Saturday as the two were fishing off the 500 block of West Main Street, opposite Maggies on the River restaurant, 500 Newell St., police said.
Witnesses quickly reported it to dispatchers, and emergency officials initiated a search.
According to the release, the boy was carried in the current to Glen Park within about a half-hour, not an hour as previously reported.
