Eliza Dushku (Apr 15th, 2009)
Eliza Dushku's long hairstyle has sultry smooth roots and flirty, rolled-outward curls through at the ends.
Styling Tip
Step 1: Blend a quarter-size amount styling lotion with a few drops of shine serum and apply onto damp hair. Blow dry two-inch sections straight with a paddle brush.
Step 2: Mist a one-inch section with styling spray and then wrap the lower portion around a large curling iron. Hold in place for a few seconds to set the curl and release. Repeat while rolling all sections away from your face.
Step 3: Lightly coat your fingers with shine serum and run through your hair to break up the curl. Spritz with hairspray to lock in your style.

Helen Harrion, 67, was found dead in her backyard on Tuesday and Jackson, Mississippi Police Chief Lindsey Horton said during a press conference Wednesday that officers mishandled a 911 call made prior to her murder, reports The Clarion Laedger.
According to records, Harrion called 911 at approximately 2:23 a.m. to report a prowler around her home in Jackson's BelAir neighborhood. After approximately 12 seconds, the dispatcher disconnected the call.
Jackson PD allegedly arrived on the scene 8 minutes later, but when they didn't see Harrion or any visible signs of break-in, they left.
When Harrion's children arrived at her home around eleven hours later, they discovered blood inside of the dwelling but could not find her. They called police, but her son discovered his mother's body before officers arrived.
Harrion was partially clothed, had been beaten and possibly raped. According to the autopsy report, she was "strangled, shot in the face and suffered blunt force trauma. Her neck was also broken," reports the Ledger.
"We are all elderly people around here," neighbor Doris Maxdell said. "I think somebody knew that she lived alone and they targeted her. That's my belief."
According to MSNewsNow.com, Chief Horton said that he was "not pleased" with his officers' handling of the 911 call:
"I am not pleased with it, and it is a defining moment for us, a teachable moment."

TULSA, Okla. – East Carolina's softball team (21-31) fell in its opening game of the Conference USA Tournament by a 5-4 score to Marshall (33-20) on Thursday at the Collins Family Softball Complex. The Pirates allowed three unearned runs in the fifth inning to take the team's sixth-straight loss to close the season.
Sophomore Courtney Smith (5-16) was tagged with the loss and allowed five runs (two earned) in throwing her 13th complete game of the season. Andi Williamson (30-16) allowed all four runs for Marshall (none earned) in winning the contest.
After trailing for the entire game, Marshall was able to take the late lead with the three-run rally in the fifth inning on a Bri Anna Hope double with the bases loaded. The inning began innocently enough with Jazmine Valle walking. Emileigh Cooper ran for Valle. Shaelynn Braxton then reached on a dropped ball by the ECU centerfielder. After a strike out and a walk, Hope cleared the bases with her double to deep center to give the Thundering Herd a lead it would not relinquish.
Junior Jill Jelnick had a pair of hits and runs scored in defeat for the Pirates.
The Pirates scored first with a run in the opening inning. Jelnick singled to center and advanced all the way to third on the fielding error from the centerfielder. Fellow junior Kristi Oshiro followed with a single to left to score Jelnick with the game's first run.
The Thundering Herd wasted little time tying the game as Valle hit a solo two-out home run in the opening inning.
ECU scored the team's second unearned run of the game in the third inning. Jelnick reached on fielding error from the first baseman. She moved to second on a bunt and third on a ground out. She scored the unearned run as the ball that junior Jordan Lewis hit to third was thrown away.
The Pirates plated a pair of runs in the fourth inning. Senior Kai Clark walked to start the frame. Junior Jasmine Robbins reached on an error to put a pair of runners on base. After a pop out and a fielder's choice to eliminate Clark at third and allow Mitchell to reached, Jelnick singled to left field to drive in Robbins. The attempted throw to the plate was high and allowed Mitchell to score on the play as well to increase the ECU lead to 4-1.
Marshall drew a run closer in the fourth inning. Savannah Webster reached on a one-out double to left center. Kristina Braxton was inserted in to run for Webster. Bri Anna Hope was then hit by a pitch to put a pair of runners on base. After a fly out for the second out, Alexandria Bayne singled through the right side to drive in Braxton with the team's second run.

Secrets of Success
i finally found you, my missing puzzle piece, (walking)
View SOFT_VAL67's Sparkpage

Tuesday, November 19, 2013
So, I got on the scale today, it is afterall, Tuesday. No gain, no loss. Even Steven, given that last week I went to the doctor and was up 3lbs.
But I will take even steven over a gain anyday.
I am taking steps toward seeing a lower number next time, and by steps, I mean walking.
I got my hour in on the cold cold track this morning, and if nothing happens, I will be back at least the next 2 mornings, will have to check the weather after that.
And get a little more prepared, like gloves, head cover, thicker socks, and maybe walking pants instead of capris!!!
The city is in the midst of repairs and they have two places they are tearing up and replacing on my track, so I may have to wait for those repairs, find another track to walk on.
Last night, feeling stressed and irrationally angry, I decided to work it off, so I did some squats, crunches, upper body dumbbell workout and some wall pushups.
While it was only about a 15 minute mini workout, it was pretty nice to find a way to relieve some pent up frustrations, other than dwelling on it.
I am considering going back into counseling, I know I should have long before now, and I know it may or may not help me resolve all these, or especially ONE big issue, it might help me figure out why it still hangs around in my mind.
But it isnt so bad today, I am learning that when others say hurtful things or remind you of hurtful issues, maybe they are hurting inside and want the company to wallow in their self pity, afterall, I have done that to friends and maybe thats why a few of them dont talk to me so much.
I am doing alot better in that regard, I no longer feel the need to share all my issues with anyone but my blogs, my private journal and my self.
I actually feel better, going to the track really helps.
Todays song of the day was not a black, painful deep soul searching song, it was light and fun.
Teenage Dream, Katy Perry.
If we have to have memories, lets try to have some good ones, the walking track is right by my old high school football field and the old swimming pool, where I spent so many days in my youth,
Hearing that song really brought back some good memories of a time when life might have seemed stressful at times, but oh if I had to choose a time in my history to revisit, it would have to be the days of hanging out at the pool, when I had a bikini body, lol.
I loved those days, but like everything else, they came to an end and this too must come to an end, but will live in my mind, as long as they remain good memories, the bad ones have to go... these harboured resentments and anger and unresolved questions, unanswered,
Sometimes you have to just sit it down and walk away,
Feeling so much better!!!!

I find it's the introspective ones that make a lot of headway, if they aren't afraid to cast a light on the dark corners of their souls. A daunting task, indeed!
Walking is one of the simplest things we can apply to weight loss. I think with your city tearing up and presumably repairing your track, it just might afford you the opportunity to discover new paths [OK, I admit it, pun intended]. With music, as I'm sure you've already discovered, you can go farther than you planned, and feel really good about that. You don't even need a pedometer. You can chart your new walkway with the odometer on a car.
I wish you well as you walk the miles.
Best of luck,

Chickasaw Health Clinic Hosts Summer Blood Drive – August 7
July 28, 2014 ─ There's no substitute for blood needed by patients in local hospitals served by Oklahoma Blood Institute (OBI). A blood drive in Ardmore Thursday, Aug. 7, provides the opportunity for anyone who is healthy and at least 16 years old* to make a life-saving difference. The blood drive will occur at Chickasaw Health Clinic, 7:30 to 11:30 a.m.
Two tickets to the Oklahoma City Zoo and a "Feel Cool" T-shirtwill be presented to each donor. Health screenings and Donor Rewards points, redeemable in OBI's online store, are also provided to donors.
Through a special initiative to support the Global Blood Fund (GBF), any donor can forgo the T-shirt offered in appreciation for giving. In turn, funds so designated will then be contributed to GBF for supplies and equipment for blood centers in the world's poorest countries.
"Everyone knows someone who's needed blood. It impacts all ages of people and often arises unexpectedly as a result of accident or illness," said John Armitage, M.D., president and CEO. "Whether we know them or not, there are people now who are counting on us to give."
Patients who receive blood exclusively from OBI donors include those in Mercy Hospital Ardmore and Ardmore Regional Surgery Center. In fact, Oklahoma Blood Institute provides every drop of blood needed to some 150 medical facilities statewide.
Appointments are not necessary, but can be made by calling 877-340-8777 or visiting www.obi.org.
* 16 year olds must weigh at least 125 and provide signed parental permission, 17 year olds must weigh at least 125 pounds, 18+ year olds must weigh at least 110 pounds.

The Roots of Obama's Rage reveals Obama for who he really is: a man driven by the anti-colonial ideology of his father and the first American president to actually seek to reduce America's strength, influence, and standard of living. Controversial and compelling, The Roots of Obama's Rage is poised to be the one book that truly defines Obama and his presidency.

My Experience
- Overall Rating
- 3
- average of all patients
- Pain
- Inconvenience
We had our second child and had decided we didn't want any more. I was extremely open to getting a vasectomy as compared to using condoms or having my wife take the pill. I originally was going to have the vasectomy done two weeks after our child was born. So after two weeks, I met with the doctor for a consultation, when he told me he recommends waiting six months until after the baby was born. At this point, he said, you generally know if there are any developmental issues with the child.
Six months after our second (and last) child was born, I went in for the vasectomy. I went to the doctor's office. He had me lie on a flat examination table with my pants down to my knees and my shirt pulled up a bit. He shaved some of my pubic hair. He gave me local anesthesia, a shot, into the areas where he shaved my pubic area, on the left and right side. There was no pain, just a short poke. The doctor waited five minutes for the anesthesia to take effect and during this time he explained the procedure. He told me he would make a small incision to access my vas deferens, cut it, tie it, and cauterize the open ends.
He made the small incision on one side, used what looked like a knitting needle to pull the vas deferens. I didn't feel anything, though I saw a little smoke and smelled a little burning smell when he cauterized. He then closed the incision, and did the other side. Each side took about 4 minutes.
He said he was done, and told me I could go home.
In the consultation, he had recommended that I wear comfortable, supportive pants and supportive underwear the day of the procedure. So I wore sweat pants and "tighty whites" to the procedure. He gave me a prescription for pain medication and told me to apply ice to the area for the next 48 hours. I used bags of frozen peas, and used them often in the first 24 hours. I also watched several DVDs because I was a bit sore in the groin and walking was a little uncomfortable. The day after, I was back to 80 percent normal. I had the procedure done Friday morning, and I was back at work Monday morning with no issues.
My Advice
Get supportive underwear. For icing, use bags of frozen peas or corn. Get a bunch of DVDs to watch, because for 24 hours you may be sore in the groin region, making walking a bit uncomfortable.

This website is about me and my Martial Arts. I will promote my martial arts ideas and philosophies here, as well as some specific techniques and ideas about how to apply martial arts and their lessons to real life situations. Few of us actually end up fighting with other people in our daily lives, unless we make this a point. Our society has (luckily) evolved to the point where we do not employ violence in our day to day interactions with each other*. Martial Arts are enjoyed as a sport, hobby and lifestyle that teaches us techniques and abilities that we can learn to use to improve our experience of our every day life. A true Martial Art will challenge you in its execution, it will be hard to do, and will give you little reward other than the knowledge that yes, you can perform under high stress. Yes, you cannot do something now, but if you train/work/learn hard, you will be able to. You will see yourself as limitless.
Check out my Martial Arts page for information on my BJJ and MMA history. Check out my Blog for my philosophies on learning and teaching Martial Arts / MMA. I will primarily focus on (my) Brazillian Jiujitsu, but I'd like to think most martial arts have at least the attitude in common.
*indirectly, our entire society/economic model is based on violence in regards to property rights, but this blurb doesn't address that on purpose ok?

- The psychology of consumption
- Author(s)
- Kyrios, Michael
- Abstract
- Reversing and preventing patterns of unsustainable consumption will be a major challenge of the 21st century, particularly as population growth and economic development in emerging economies advance. It is the contention of this chapter that it is not possible to develop an inclusive understanding of the problems of overconsumption without an account of individual, psychological and behavioural influences on excessive buying, in addition to considering sociocultural and economic context and factors that influence buying patterns.

Child Abuse Prevention Month on Rock Island Arsenal
April 9, 2013
By Jenny Kerr, Family Advocacy Program Manager, Rock Island Arsenal
Related Links
ROCK ISLAND ARSENAL, Rock Island, Ill. (April 9, 2013) -- April is Child Abuse Prevention Month across the Army because "Protecting Children is Everyone's Job!" supporting Rock Island Arsenal's child abuse prevention efforts is as easy as 1 -- 2 -- 3.
1. Enhance the protective factors in your own family and support them in others. Protective Factors are those actions which have been shown by research to prevent abuse from ever occurring in the first place. To show you how easy this can be, below are the six Protective Factors and a few ideas on what you can do to enhance each of them.
• Nurturing and Attachment
* Take a few minutes at the end of each day to connect with your kids.
* Find ways to engage the kids while completing everyday tasks.
• Knowledge of Parenting and Child Development
* Explore parenting questions with your family doctor, child's teacher, family, or friends.
* Subscribe to a magazine, website, or online newsletter about child development.
• Parental Resilience
* Take quiet time to reenergize: Take a bath, write, sing, laugh, play, drink a cup of tea.
* Do some physical exercise: Walk, stretch, do yoga, life weights, dance.
• Social Connections
* Participate in neighborhood activities
* Join a playgroup
• Concrete Support
* Make a list of people or places to call for support.
* Dial 2-1-1 to find out about organizations that support families in Lawton/Fort Sill.
• Social and Emotional Competence of Children
* Provide regular routines, especially for young children.
* Talk with your children about the importance of feelings.
* Teach and encourage children to solve problems in an age-appropriate way.
2. Recognize the Signs of all four types of abuse: Physical, emotional, sexual and neglect. A few of which include:
• The child shows sudden change in behavior or school performance.
• The child has not received help for physical or medical problems brought to the parents' attention.
• The child lacks adult supervision.
• The child is overly compliant, passive, or withdrawn.
• The child is overly non-compliant, acts out, belligerent.
3. If you suspect abuse, Report It, because "Protecting Children is Everyone's Job!"
• Rock Island Arsenal Police (Reporting Point of Contact) (309) 782-6116
• Iowa Child Abuse Hotline 1-800-362-2178
• Illinois Child Abuse Hotline 1-800-252-2873
• National Child Abuse Hotline 1-800-4-A-CHILD (1-800-422-4453)

Need an excuse to get friends and family together? Celebrate your home in small pieces, maybe you haven't just moved in, but you are rarely home and don't have much in the kitchen pantry. Or you think of cooking as three minutes in the microwave or opening a bag of chips and a jar of dip, (my favorite dinner is often chip and dip!) This is a golden opportunity to branch out, explore the fun of cooking and master just a handful of basics that can get you through any party and leave your company glad they came.
No one likes to show up at a party empty handed and this is an easy way to get guests to bring what you need and want, while you share the welcome of your home and hospitality. Throw this bash to get your pantry stocked, yes you can include kitchen equipment in this and invite friends to make it a potluck event by bringing their favorite dish, the recipe and a couple of key ingredients to give you a head start on a kitchen that is ready for entertaining and day to day cooking.
Create a master list of pantry stockers desired or even register if you are including kitchen appliances like blenders, toasters, and food processors. Let everyone know what you are into, whether it is a pantry full of bottled water, chips and dip or you are a bit more of a cook and want great exotic spices, tins of imported specialty foods, and international flavors. Sure flour and sugar are necessary staples, but I bet you can get more creative.
On appliances and kitchen tools, think hard about what you want and what you'll use (or what a friend might ask to use when they come by to help you pull it all together.) Sure some are almost required like the blender and even a toaster still, but what about a divine bread maker, the latest ergonomic palm held peeler, a butterfly trash can by Simply Human, or a classic wine rack. You can even suggest gift cards from favorite big box retail kitchen good stores like Bed Bath Beyond, Williams Sonoma, and Crate and Barrel.
The point is to leverage your kitchen as the heart and hearth of your home. More often than not these days, when we head to a friend's home we wind up congregating in the kitchen where conversation and culinary delights are cooked up with good cheer. You don't have to be a cook, good or otherwise, to pull this off. The key is in being willing to open yourself up to the creativity and generosity of your friends and family to get your kitchen from that empty place and microwave way station to a well stocked and ready to entertain and nourish kind of place.
Celebrate your home with a stock the pantry party! And when you want more great ways to celebrate every day, head on over to www.theartofcelebrating.com

A surge of southerly winds will bring warmer air and some moisture into eastern North Carolina on Friday. Temperatures will warm into the middle 70s during the afternoon. A weak cold front will push into the Piedmont by late afternoon causing an increase in clouds and a few showers and thunderstorms by late in the day. Any shower activity should diminish overnight with plenty of sunshine on tap for Saturday as highs once again hit the 70s. Mother's Day looks a bit unsettled with highs in the 70s to around 80 degrees, with a 30% risk of an afternoon thunderstorm.

Catholic theologian speaks about the crisis in Western culture
PERU — The parishes of St. Joseph, St. Mary and St. Valentine in Peru recently hosted a series of presentations by Kenneth Howell, a well known Catholic theologian and speaker. Howell discussed the current crisis in western culture, whereby people no longer think it's possible to judge whether something is right or wrong. As a remedy, Howell suggested that Catholic schools rededicate themselves to the study of philosophic realism and logical reasoning and that the beauty of the Catholic Church be shared with others.

I'm glad to report that for adults who grew up watching and enjoying the Charles Schulz's Peanuts television specials and who may have been skeptical about the 2015 re-boot shown in theaters, fear not, it more than makes the grade. Retaining the essence and spirit of the classic 1960's programs was essential for those like me who worried that Hollywood would somehow ruin my nostalgic recollections of watching the perpetually morose, quasi-depressed Charlie Brown run toward the football only to have his arch nemesis Lucy pull it away at the last second. Everyone from the original is here and accounted for including the ever-fantasizing beagle Snoopy, his trusted sidekick Woodstock, the aromatic Pigpen, the Beethoven-obsessed Schroeder, the dynamic duo of Marcie and Peppermint Patty, and the quixotic Linus. With updated animation that feels fresh while still grounded to the flat, minimalist approach of the original, The Peanuts Movie won't disappoint its fans, both the new and the old ones.
My two-year-old has very limited access to television, thanks to advice gleaned from child-rearing brain-development experts and also common sense. His world of moving pictures has mostly involved the interactive education of Sesame Street, the animated adventures of misbehaving monkey Curious George, and, thanks to his father's love of all things Aardman, the wooly exploits of British bovid Shaun the Sheep. I grew up on Creature Comforts and Wallace and Gromit, so when it came time for selecting something short that I could enjoy as much as my child, Shaun jumped out at me.
Shaun the character was spun off of the Academy Award-winning Wallace and Gromit short A Close Shave. The series follows Shaun's life on a small rural farm in Britain and his adventures with fellow sheep, a sheepdog named Bitzer, the hapless farmer, and some misfit pigs. Animated in classic Aardman stop-motion style, Shaun is a family-friendly delight.
Last year saw the feature-length adaptation Shaun the Sheep Movie hit theaters, where it enjoyed great critical success. It has since been deservedly nominated for a Best Animated Feature Oscar. In the film, Shaun and the gang find themselves having to venture to the big city in order to rescue their missing farmer while staying out of the clutches of a villainous animal containment worker. The film is hilarious for kids and adults (as well as adults without kids); much like Pixar, Aardman is an expert at appealing to multiple generations. Check it out! It's wool-th your time.
The 88th Academy Awards are less than a month away, so if you want to catch up on some of the nominees, the Kalamazoo Public Library can help you out! The following is a list of Oscar-nominated films that are available right now (or very soon) here at KPL:
Summer blockbuster (and, full disclosure, my favorite film of the year) Mad Max: Fury Road received ten nominations for Best Picture, Best Director (George Miller), Cinematography, Film Editing, Costume Design, Visual Effects, Makeup & Hairstyling, Production Design, and Sound Mixing & Editing.
Another popular Best Picture nominee, The Martian, scored a Best Actor nod for Matt Damon, as well as nominations for Best Adapted Screenplay (Drew Goddard), Production Design, Visual Effects, and Sound Mixing & Editing.
Steven Spielberg's Cold War drama Bridge of Spies was recognized for Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (Mark Rylance), Best Original Screenplay (Matt Charman, Joel & Ethan Coen), Original Score (Thomas Newman), Production Design, and Sound Mixing.
The riveting thriller Sicario received nominations for Best Original Score (Jóhann Jóhannsson), Best Cinematography, and Best Sound Editing.
Sci-fi thriller Ex Machina received nominations for Best Visual Effects and Best Original Screenplay (Alex Garland).
Three of the Best Animated Feature nominees are currently available: When Marnie Was There, Shaun the Sheep Movie, and Inside Out (which was also nominated for Best Original Screenplay).
Don't miss must-see Best Documentary Feature nominees The Look of Silence and Amy.
Kenneth Branaugh's Cinderella received a nomination for Best Costume Design.
The Hunting Ground and Fifty Shades of Grey received Best Original Song nominations.
The cumbersomely-titled The 100 Year-Old Man Who Climbed out the Window and Disappeared was nominated for Best Makeup & Hairstyling.
All-around juggernaut Star Wars: The Force Awakens received five nominations including Best Original Score (John Williams), Best Film Editing, Visual Effects, and Sound Mixing & Editing. The film is not available yet, but John Williams' Oscar-nominated music is.
The nominees that are not yet available, but are expected within the month are Straight Outta Compton, Spectre, Creed, and Room. You can place a hold on these right now.
So start binging today, and be sure to keep checking our catalog for other Oscar nominated films as more of them become available. For many of the Oscar nominated films that are still in theaters, be sure to check out downtown Kalamazoo's Alamo Drafthouse Theater, which is currently playing The Revenant (12 nominations), The Big Short (5 nominations), Carol (6 nominations), and the 2016 Oscar nominated shorts, both Live Action and Animated.
Inside Out is one of the year's best animated films. It's both smartly written and entertaining. It's also received praise for being accessible to both its young viewers and their parents. The film's originality begins with its narrative form, one that sets out to tell the story of a young girl's difficult, emotional transition after her parents move her and the family from their bucolic Minnesota home to a dingy apartment in San Francisco. Her adjustment to her new school and classmates is a rough one. Riley misses her Minnesota friends and hockey teammates, leading to her expressing these laments in negative ways. What the viewer sees are scenes with Riley navigating this disappointment toward her parents and the internal machinations of her psyche, represented as zany characters, voiced by the likes of Amy Poehler, Bill Hader and Mindy Kaling. Thoughtfully conceived and executed, Inside Out will more than likely earn an Oscar nomination.
Year-end film lists are always difficult to make in a timely fashion for those of us who don't live in a large city. A sizeable chunk of the movies that compete for awards tend to be released in only a handful of markets late in the year so that they can capitalize on nominations and guild recognitions; most of us won't have the opportunity to catch them at our local Alamo Drafthouse until January or February. It is with this caveat that I recap my early best-of list, acknowledging that many of the season's big contenders have yet to be screened, and others have not yet hit DVD.
Available now:
Mad Max: Fury Road – George Miller's masterpiece of dystopian demolition is the most exciting, progressive, and visually-stunning blockbuster in recent memory. I'm as surprised as you are.It Follows – This slow-burn, instant-classic horror film somehow manages to make you both claustrophobic and agoraphobic at the same time.
Inside Out – The folks at Pixar prove their genius once again with this profound exploration of the emotions of a young girl struggling with the challenges of growing up.
Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief – This eye-opening documentary reveals the dark, tragic truth behind L. Ron Hubbard's institutional legacy of tax evasion, blackmail, manipulation, and physical & emotional cruelty.
The Hunting Ground – Anyone who has a child in college needs to see this disturbing documentary about the legacy of sexual abuse that takes place on campuses across the country—and the shocking lengths to which universities will go to cover it all up.
What We Do in the Shadows – This hilarious vampire mockumentary from one-half of Flight of the Conchords rivals any of Christopher Guest's improvised comedies.Ex-Machina – This dark sci-fi film about artificial intelligence features stellar performances from Oscar Isaac and Alicia Vikander.
Mr. Holmes – Ian McKellen shines as a 93-year-old Sherlock Holmes who's struggling to solve one final case despite dealing with increased memory loss.
Coming soon:
The Look of Silence – This must-see companion piece to the 2013 documentary The Act of Killing explores the Indonesian genocide from the point of view of the victims who still live under the regime that murdered their friends and family.
The Martian – Matt Damon gets left behind on Mars and we're all the better for it.Sicario – Emily Blunt is terrific as a tactical expert who gets trapped in the dark, seedy political underbelly of the war on drugs. The film contains some of the most breath-taking scenes of suspense put on screen this year.
99 Homes – Michael Shannon chews the scenery as a real estate operative who evicts people from their homes in this thrilling exploration of the darkest side of the housing crisis.
Other films I enjoyed this year that aren't available yet include Steve Jobs, Brooklyn, Spotlight, Bridge of Spies, Creed, Room, and a little can-do picture called Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Check them out in theaters or look for them on DVD in the next few months. I'll be sure to give you a final top ten list right around Oscar time, as that's when I've usually had a chance to see many more contenders.
I'm not gonna lie: As much as I personally loved Academy Award Best Picture winner Birdman more than expected winner Boyhood, I'm still shocked that the artsy and eccentric tale of a washed-up superhero actor trying to do "legitimate theater" (and please in your head imagine that pronounced as "theee-ATER") beat out the wholesome, relatable, coming-of-age tale that was filmed over the course of twelve years. I'm certainly happy for Birdman—just not so happy about what it did to my Oscar pool. In addition to Best Picture, Birdman picked up wins for Best Director (Alejandro G. Iñárritu), Best Cinematography (Emmanuel Lubezki) and Best Original Screenplay (Alejandro G. Iñárritu, Nicolás Giacobone, Alexander Dinelaris, Jr. & Armando Bo).
In case you'd like to catch any of the other available Oscar winners that you may have missed, I've listed them below. Click on the links and place a hold on a copy today.
The following winners will be released soon and are available for holds now:
Keep checking back for Still Alice, for which Julianne Moore won Best Actress, Selma, which featured Best Original Song winner "Glory" by John Legend and Common, and must-see Best Documentary Feature winner CitizenFour. We don't have releases for these titles yet, but we will assuredly carry them.
Oscar nominations were announced yesterday, which means it's once again time for me to let all the obsessive movie lovers out there know which films are available right now (or very soon), here at the Kalamazoo Public Library.
The first film you'll want to get your hands on is Richard Linklater's Boyhood. Nominated for six Academy Awards, this critical darling is the front-runner for Best Picture, Best Director (Linklater) and Best Supporting Actress (Patricia Arquette). It also received nominations for Best Actor (Ethan Hawke), Film Editing, and Original Screenplay. Boyhood is an epic coming-of-age tale that was filmed over the course of twelve years using the same actors. The story follows the journey of young Mason Evans as he ages from six to eighteen, and the viewer can literally watch the young actor grow and mature before their very eyes. It's truly a great achievement in filmmaking.
The next movie you'll want to watch is Wes Anderson's The Grand Budapest Hotel, which received nine nominations—tied for the most this year. It was recognized for Best Picture, Best Director (Anderson), Original Screenplay, Cinematography, Costume Design, Film Editing, Makeup and Hairstyling, Original Score and Production Design. The hilarious film follows the exploits of a hotel concierge (Ralph Fiennes) and his lobby boy (Tony Revolori) as they attempt to wrest a valuable painting from the estate of a recently deceased elderly patron. Surprisingly, this is Anderson's first Best Director nomination and the first of his films to get nominated for Best Picture.
After that, it might be time for a marathon of Best Visual Effects nominees: Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, X-Men: Days of Future Past, and Guardians of the Galaxy (also nominated for Makeup and Hairstyling). Come to think of it, if there were an Oscar for the length of the movie title, these would probably be the nominees for that as well.
Then turn your eye to Best Animated Feature nominees: How to Train Your Dragon 2 is out now; The Boxtrolls and Big Hero 6 are not available yet, but they will be soon and you can place a hold on them right now. Shockingly, everything was not awesome for The LEGO Movie, which did not get nominated for Best Animated Feature as expected, but it did still pick up a nomination for Best Original Song with "Everything Is Awesome," performed by Tegan and Sara (featuring The Lonely Island).
Next, you'll want to check out Disney's Maleficent, nominated for Best Costume Design; Finding Vivian Maier, a Best Documentary Feature nominee; Begin Again, Original Song nominee for "Lost Stars"; and Ida, which scored both Best Cinematography as well as Best Foreign Film.
Best Documentary nominee Virunga is available via our streaming service hoopla.
There are several more nominees that are arriving within the next several weeks that you can place a hold on right now, including eight-time nominee The Imitation Game. This true, tragic story of Alan Turing, father of the modern computer and preeminent World War II code-breaker, scored recognition for Best Picture, Best Director (Morten Tyldum), Best Actor (Benedict Cumberbatch), Best Supporting Actress (Keira Knightley), Adapted Screenplay, Film Editing, Original Score, and Production Design. The other coming-soon films that you can place a hold on now are Gone Girl (Best Actress – Rosamund Pike), The Judge (Best Supporting Actor – Robert Duvall), Nightcrawler (Original Screenplay), and Beyond the Lights (Original Song).
So start binging today, and be sure to keep checking our catalog for other Oscar nominated films as more of them become available.
For many of the Oscar nominated films that are still in theaters, be sure to check out downtown Kalamazoo's Alamo Drafthouse Theater, which is currently playing American Sniper (6 nominations), Foxcatcher (5 nominations), Into the Woods (3 nominations), Selma (2 nominations), Inherent Vice (2 nominations), and the aforementioned The Imitation Game (8 nominations).
The Last Mimzy is about a sister and her brother who discover a box of toys which turns out to be from the future sent back in time. The children of course keep this from their parents. The little girl gets a stuffed rabbit from the box and his name is Mimzy. The girl can communicate with the bunny. The Children develop special powers and try to help Mimzy fulfill his mission. This was recommended to me and as I started watching it, I came to realize I had seen it before. But I liked it just as much if not more the second time and so will you. Come on down to KPL and check it out.
Goosebumps is a series of stories by R.L. Stine designed to give you Goose Bumps, to make you get a tiny bit frightened. These stories are geared towards children, I'd say between ages 6 and 12 but it depends on the child. In Goosebumps One Day at HorrorLand a family is on vacation and comes across an amusement park called HorrorLand. They stop and go in. The two children go to the house of mirrors and the girl feels like the walls are caving in and she is going to be crushed when the floor falls out and she is expelled. The boy pops out shortly after and thinks it was a blast. Later we find that the monsters are real and the humans are on a monster reality show. The costumes are very non real looking so as an adult you are nonplussed but for a little kid it can be scary.This DVD has two movies, the second is titled Welcome to Camp Nightmare. I found this one more to my liking. A bus takes a group of children out into the woods for a campout. Things start happening, like a snake bites one of the campers. To me this was horrifying. They used what looks like a real snake and I have a phobia for snakes. I quickly fast forwarded. Later in the movie they complement Billy on how he trapped the snake. You can't prove that by me but I'm not checking on it either. The camper who was bitten dies and weirdly the camp consolers tell Billy that camper was never here. Other strange things happen, two campers drown in the lake and a werewolf is prowling the woods. All culminating in the ending which I will not reveal here. Except for the snake this was a pretty good short 45 min movie.
The Easter Bunny is Australian and Santa Clause is Russian. Rise of the Guardians is an animated movie where the boggy man is trying to take over the dreams of children and make them forget the Easter Bunny, Santa Clause, the tooth fairy etc. Jack Frost is coaxed to join the Guardians and help fight off Pitch (the Boogeyman). I found this to be a delightful film. I liked that the Easter Bunny, played by Hugh Jackman, was Australian. This was not a scary movie but it is rated PG. Give it a try. This and many others movies are available at KPL.

ELGIN — The Elgin Health District's board of directors made several landmark announcements recently.
Foremost among them is the receipt of a $78,000 grant for the dental clinic from the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust. It also announced the appointment of Melissa Coe as a new board member and an accepted offer to purchase land in the city of Elgin for a future clinic.
"We got word that we received $78,000 from the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust that will finish everything we need to provide full dentistry in Elgin now," said board member and spokesperson Jared Rogers. "It's a dental grant that will allow us to get the rest of the equipment and supplies to go beyond routine exams and minor fillings to full dentistry. We're very grateful."
Last July, dental provider Dr. Eli Mayes made dentistry available to Elgin-area patients, closing a 25-year gap during which no dental services were offered in town. With the Murdock grant, Mayes will have the state-of-the-art equipment and instruments to offer full-spectrum dental services at the Elgin Family Health Clinic at 1400 Division St.
Rogers said that Dr. Mayes welcomes patients with private insurance, Medicaid, Medicare and those on the Oregon Health Plan.
"In Elgin we have a great need for OHP and Medicaid-type providers," said Rogers. "The way our leases work with the medical and the dental providers (in Elgin) is that if they are willing to accept patients with OHP or Medicaid, we'll discount their rent on a percentage basis. Our goal is to get anybody who needs care to be taken care of, and the medical and dental providers are willing to work with us in this manner."
Elgin-area patients are already responding and filling the appointment schedule at the clinic for the dentist and dental hygienist.
"Dr. Mayes filled all his Mondays the first month (July). Now he's filling Mondays and Tuesdays in his second month," Rogers said. Once the mental health and medical staff schedules reach a full four days a week, he added, "then we'll start looking at building. That's several months down the road though."
At the clinic's present rate of growth, the district's board of directors felt it would be wise to look for land. They had the funds earmarked for capital improvement and land acquisition, so they worked with Ron Smith of RE/MAX Real Estate Team in La Grande.
"The realtor looked around for us," Rogers said, "and there just aren't that many building sites in town right now, so we went ahead and made an offer, and the seller accepted it."
The district's offer was verbally accepted by Wilford Gauthier, representing the estate of Mona E. Anderson.
"We haven't signed papers yet," said Rogers, "but we're drawing up the papers to be signed. That's exciting."
The property is located on Baltimore, west of O&M Gas and Groceries.
"There are no immediate plans to build, but with a busy dentist, hygienist, mental health and medical practice, our little clinic is really cramped up there," Rogers said. "As long as things keep progressing as they are, then maybe the USDA or somebody will loan us money like they did on the fire hall."
In past years, the USDA gave a low-interest, long-term loan to the Elgin Rural Fire Protection District, and Rogers said that the USDA told him they also give loans on medical buildings.
"When the time is right that's who we'll talk to first," he said, "and then we'll obviously try to get grants if we can. We've been really lucky on this dental project, receiving between $140,000 and $150,000 now in grant money that really helped us stock, equip and remodel our dental clinic."
In addition to these announcements, the health district board of directors also appointed Melissa Coe to fill the chair formerly held by Al Smolkowski. Coe had been a board member in the past and showed interest in serving again.
Irene Garlitz also showed interest in serving on the board, but cannot do so until the next election, Rogers said.
To prepare for a possible new board member in 2015, board members Mary Rose Nichols, Cheryl Coe, Betty Lou Martin, Melissa Coe and Rogers voted to add a sixth position to the current five-member board.
"We cannot appoint anyone to a newly created board of directors position until the next election," Rogers said, "but in the meantime, we have invited Garlitz to sit in on the meetings."

Dockside Bait & Tackle in Slidell closes
Popular launch and bait shop serving eastern Lake Pontchartrain doesn't renew lease, owner says
July 30, 2014 at 3:42 pm | Mobile Reader | Print
Although Dockside Bait & Tackle in Slidell is closed, the popular line of Matrix and Vortex Shad, as well as Goldeneye jigheads that they produce, are not affected by the shutdown.
|Image from Dockside TV
Dockside Bait & Tackle in Slidell has closed its doors permanently.
Owner Chas Champagne confirmed Wednesday afternoon the popular boat launch and marina located on Harbor View Court in Slidell closed when he decided not to renew his lease.
"We finished moving out of the store on Monday. We didn't renew our lease and we're just going to pursue focusing on Matrix Shad, Vortex Shad and Goldeneye jigheads," Champagne said. "Nothing is changing for Matrix Shad. They were really two totally different businesses.
"Dockside Bait and Tackle still makes the product. I still own the name."
He's currently operating his popular line of soft-plastic lures out of his home.
"I'm just warehousing my whole Matrix Shad operation out of my house at the moment," said Champagne, who opened Dockside Bait & Tackle in October of 2009. "If I feel like I need to get another storefront, I will. If I feel l like I can just do it like that, I'll keep the status quo."
The daily demands of dealing with live shrimp were a grind, Champagne said, but he stuck it out as long as possible because of the visibility it provided his lures.
"I've been wanting to get out the business because it's so many hours for a little bit of income," he said. "But I didn't because it was so good for the lures, such a good marketer. Having a marina and being in the manufacturing business go hand-in-hand together."
Now he plans to focus on marketing Matrix Shad, Vortex Shad and Goldeneye jigheads full-time.
"I just want the world to know we're not there, so don't go to Dockside expecting to see us," he said. "And don't think there will be anything different with Matrix Shad. That hadn't changed a bit."

It seems that belly button tattoos are becoming very popular these days. Women generally outnumber men in terms of favoring this particular tattoo design.
With fashion showing a womans bare mid drift more and more, it's no wonder why this particular tattoo art is being heavily requested at tattoo shops all around the world.
As with any tattoo, one has to consider some things before getting inked.
When you consider a belly button tattoo, there are a few different things you also have to take into account.
The Good:
The belly button area has less nerve endings than other parts of the body, so is generally a less painful area in which to get a tattoo.
If you have a nice stomach or well defined abs, it definitely will draw attention there.
You can look at this 2 ways. Having a belly button tattoo can either be displayed easier or it can be more easily concealed, depending on what you are trying to accomplish.
The Not So Good:
The area in and around the belly button is subject to stretching. Think about weight fluctuations or pregnancy in women. Also consider possible surgery in the area, either planned (plastic surgery) or unplanned (emergency medical procedures.) Any of the scenarios above will distort the tattoo.
This is an area of the body, that for some people, can be susceptible to keloids. A keloid is skin tissue that becomes raised due to scars and never returns to a flat, smooth appearance. They can occur anywhere on the body, but it is something to think about.
Some people actually have more pain in the abdominal area depending on the individual and overall fat content. Unfortunately there is no way to know for sure unless you bite the bullet and get the tattoo.

Hello ladies, my heparin dosage was increased a couple days ago & all morning I've been smelling something that smells like a burnt match. At my home, in my car, and now at work, so I know it's not environmental! I've tried researching heparin side effects, sulfuric smells, etc with no luck. Maybe it's unrelated, but thought I'd post here first. Anyone ever heard of this?
I Keep Smelling A Burnt Match...Heparin Side Effect?
Comments (4)
i have never heard of that before... I like the smell of a burnt match and when i fill my car up with gas...LOL i'd like to say your lucky but if it around you all the time i am sure it gets a little annoying. good luck and if you call your dr let us know what they say.... that is an odd one i would like to know more about...
Jodi mom to
lmlm my children are my smile lmlm
Well, I left a message at my drs office but no call back yet. I agree, I actually like the smell of matches, but it's really starting to overwhelm me at this point. I keep smelling lotions, my perfume, etc just so I can get away from the smell for a few seconds. I mentioned it to my boss and after I walked away and came back she mentioned that she thought SHE could even smell it...I told her I was probably radiating it through my pores or something, since it seems so strong to me!
I've read that heparin does have sulfur compounds in it...it's got to be related. I'll post again when I hear back from the dr.
thanks.. i'd be interested in knowing that!
Jodi mom to
lmlm my children are my smile lmlm
Ok, well even though I put a 2nd call in to my drs office that day, I never heard back. They probably thought I was a quack, because towards the evening the smell started getting less intense, I went to bed, woke up the next day and have experienced nothing like that since. Very wierd. I DID note, however, when I was getting ready to do my shot yesterday, the heparin the pharmacy gave me the other day expired several months ago.......
I thought I had been using only bottles from my prior RX, and had not yet started using the bottles they gave me that expired, though I'm not 100% sure of that. That's the only thing I can think of that may explain the wierd smell. Of course the pharmacy was apologetic, and they had to call around the get some for me to use right away, but if anything is learned from this, it is ALWAYS CHECK what the pharmacy gives you...the contents AND the expiration date! Mistakes CAN be made!!

Missouri judge hears motions in case against bishop
Wednesday, March 28, 2012
KANSAS CITY (AP) — A Jackson County judge said Tuesday he hopes to rule on motions by the end of next week in a misdemeanor case involving the highest-ranking U.S. Roman Catholic official accused of shielding an abusive priest.
Bishop Robert Finn and the Catholic Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph each are charged with one count of failure to report suspected child abuse to the state. Finn's attorneys have asked to have his case dismissed, contending he was not the diocese's mandatory reporting agent.
Defense attorney J.R. Hobbs also asked Circuit Judge John Torrence on Tuesday to sever the cases so they can be tried separately.
The charges came after a computer technician found hundreds of images of small children on the laptop computer of the Rev. Shawn Ratigan, many of which were focused on the crotch areas of the clothed children. One series showed the exposed genitals of a girl believed to be 3 or 4 years old.
Ratigan was charged with three state child pornography counts last May. Then, in June, he was charged with 13 federal counts of producing, possessing and attempting to produce child porn. He has pleaded not guilty and remains jailed.
Finn has acknowledged he was told about the images on Ratigan's computer in December 2010, several months before the diocese turned over a disk containing the photos to local police. The bishop also has acknowledged a parish principal raised concerns about Ratigan's behavior around children in May 2010, half a year before the photos were found.
Instead of ordering the photos to be turned over to police, or telling the Children's Division about the pictures, Finn sent Ratigan out of state for a psychiatric evaluation. When the priest returned to Missouri, Finn sent him to the Sisters of St. Francis of the Holy Eucharist, where he would say Mass for the sisters and be away from children.
The diocese went to police with the photos last May after the church received reports Ratigan had violated orders from the diocese to stay away from children.
Finn claims Vicar General Robert Murphy and a diocese review board — not the bishop — were responsible for reporting suspected images of child pornography to the state.
"Bishop Finn has no statutory duty to report because he was not the diocese's designated agent," Hobbs said, adding later that "it's important to point out that the bishop is not a member of the response team."
Finn sat silently as attorneys on both sides made their cases, and after the hearing he was ushered past a throng of reporters and television cameras waiting outside the courthouse.
