Beautiful burgundy steel boned overbust corset is simply elegant. This amazing corset has 20 flexible steel stays with a steel busk and 4 steelbars supporting the back grommets, 2 supporting the front busk .Has 4 garter straps (garters not available). This style also has lacings on either side that go about 1/3 of the way up to further customize the fit at the hips - perfect for those of us with fuller figures!
This corset requires 2 size choices: Waist size (3-4 inches less than your natural waist measurement), and Bust Size: Small for cup size A & B, Medium for cup size C, and Large for cup size D-DD.
Size 20 – 22:
Size 24 – 38:
These superior quality corsets are based on an authentic Victorian pattern circa 1880, and are constructed with three layers of fabric. They start with two layers of the finest quality cotton twill for superior strength, and end with a fashionable decorative layer of quality fabric.
You'll find spiral steel stays, a steel busk, and flat steel bars in these corsets, all of which ensure stability, comfort, and strength. These corsets are so strong, they can be used for long-term wear and body modification. (You should always break in a new corset wearing it just snug at first and then progressively tighter over several wearings to allow it to mold to your body). Sizes are in inches - for best size, measure your natural waist and subtract 3-4 inches.
Lifetime Guarantee - As the preferred corsets for tight-lacing and fashion, these corsets are built to last. Each corset has a Limited Lifetime Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. While normal wear and tear is expected over time (especially to the outer fabric), your steel boned corset is designed to operate free of defects for years to come.

Born on Feb. 17, 1965 in Los Angeles, Bay was raised by his adoptive father, Jim, an accountant, and his adoptive mother, Harriet, a bookstore owner and former child psychiatrist. When he was just a kid, Bay began making 8mm shorts with his family's camera, and even got into some trouble after exploding a toy train with firecrackers, which set fire to the curtains and attracted fire trucks to his house.

Selena Rezvani Interview: It's a Woman's World, Too
Working women have made great strides in recent years, earning advanced professionals degrees and entering the workforce in record numbers. CEOs like Meg Whitman at Hewlett-Packard Co., Ursula Burns of Xerox Corp. and Indra Nooyi of PepsiCo Inc. are heralded as examples of how far women have come, but the truth is that while they make up nearly half of the U.S. workforce, women represent only 3 percent of Fortune 500 CEOs. Selena Rezvani, women's leadership consultant and author of Pushback: How Smart Women Ask—and—Stand Up For What They Want, talks about why there are so few women in the C-suite and what companies can do about it.
Workforce Management: Why are there so few women in leadership positions?
Selena Rezvani: I think one reason is that workplaces are man-made and have a culture that rewards a male style. I think women self-promote in a different way than men do, and the workplace really rewards those who advocate on their own behalf, who really go after what they want. So part of the problem is the environment we work in and part is how we put ourselves forward.
WM: And how do women put themselves forward in the workplace? In your book Pushback, you argue that asking for what you want is critical to success.
Rezvani: Women have an uneasy relationship with power, and negotiation is a form of power. Women are very fearful of how it will look if they push too hard. The best negotiators see the world as very negotiable and up for revision. One way to help us feel more comfortable is to see negotiation as a conversation that ends in agreement. So often we put our counterpart on this grand pedestal, often because they are an authority figure. Instead walk in a more peer-to-peer equal way. We don't need to be quite so deferential.
WM: Why are negotiating skills so important for women?
Rezvani: Because of what it can yield. It's very much tied to the bottom line in terms of how often you negotiate and how effectively you do it. Women are excellent at this when they get an opportunity to do it. It's a skill that's direly needed in a female leader, or in any leader.
WM: What are the strongest skills that women bring to the workplace?
Rezvani: There are a few skills that make women especially apt as leaders today in the global, decentralized and flatter workplace. One is women's ability to be inclusive. We know more than ever that a top-down approach has fallen out of favor with employees and isn't the most effective way to motivate them. In a Merrill Lynch study of female and male financial advisers, it was proven that women are very comfortable saying, 'I don't know it all.' That's in contrast to male financial advisers who tended to favor hot or trendy stocks and gloss over what they didn't know.
Another skill is having a strategic view. We hear terms like 'strategic' and 'visionary' the higher up you go in an organization, and women have an ability to consider the short vs. long term. Women are known as the ultimate multitaskers. That's what so many of us are looking for in a leader—someone who is looking forward and setting a clear direction. And women are naturals there.
WM: What role have companies played in developing women into leadership roles?
Rezvani: I think a lot of female leadership tracks with corporate women's networks. We saw those networks formed at IBM or AT&T back in the 1980s because there was a sparse woman here or there. They really functioned as a support group. Interestingly, the women's networks have shifted from the 1980s to the 1990s from a support group model to more training and development with a focus on mentoring. Today they're not painted as a lunch and learn, but as a place to do something that benefits the bottom line.
WM: What can companies do better?
Rezvani: One thing is it's been shown that sponsors can make a real difference for women rather than mentors. A mentor is a friendly guide but a sponsor is someone who will pound the table for your advancement, someone who will take actions to further your career like inviting you to a high-profile meeting. In a sponsorship culture there is an expectation that part of your job is to bring up more junior employees and develop them.
Another thing companies can do is aim for critical mass at the top. Sometimes you'll see a token woman on a board like Andrea Jung at Apple. It's not that encouraging. Companies want to shoot for at least a third of their leadership team be women. The novelty goes away when you have a group and not just one woman. You tend to be less distracted and more productive.
WM: With high-profile executives like Carly Fiorina, Ursula Burns, etc., it seems that the glass ceiling may be cracking if not shattering, yet we still hear about the dearth of women leaders. Can you explain that?
Rezvani: It's disturbing that there's so much talk about the dearth of women at the top, whether you're talking about boards or in C-suite roles. There's so much buzz and yet I see very little sense of urgency on the part of companies to do something about it. That's the strangest thing, especially in a recession when companies are looking so creatively for any little penny they could save. Over and over again it's been demonstrated that when you have more women at the top you are a more profitable company. In the last decade we've seen women move into higher-level roles, and we've certainly seen more media attention around this question of 'Where are all the women?' But when we're looking at the CEO of Xerox we need to be careful to consider: 'Is she part of a trend or a singular success?' It's really easy to say, of course 'We've progressed, look how far Hillary Clinton got,' or 'Hhey, my boss is a woman.' It's really easy to look at these things and think we've reached 50-50 parity, but you really have to look at the numbers and at who's steering the ship. Nine times out of 10 it's not a woman. When less than 3 percent of Fortune 500 CEOs are women, it doesn't paint an optimistic picture to me.
WM: Why is change so slow in coming?
Rezvani: There is a reluctance to take a hard and clear stance on this issue of gender in the U.S. Gender is a really touchy topic. People don't want to acknowledge there is a problem. Many like to think that their company is 50-50 inclusive, but in reality that's not always the nuance of the culture. There is a reluctance to face that there is an issue. Also, in the U.S. we're terrified of quotas unlike our European friends.
In Europe, there is a different sense among the countries that have mandate by law quotas on boards to make sure that they are gender-balanced. It's seen as a social justice issue. That's something that I'd love to see here in the U.S.
What some companies do is pick targets not quotas, and they will hold leaders responsible for sponsoring women. P&G comes to mind. They tie executive compensation to the executive track record of promoting women. That's a very strong stance. Most companies aren't willing to go there.
WM: What are some of the workplace obstacles women face today, and how are they different from those of 30 years ago?
Rezvani: Today, this inclusion problem looks different than in 1965. It's not as overt. You're not as likely to get tapped on the behind, but what we do see today is microinequities—smaller, hard-to-prove minievents. Like, 'I'm not going to ask that pregnant woman if she wants to lead the project because I assume she's not going to be up for it'. Some men who had done that have even said, 'I wasn't trying to discriminate; I was trying to look out for her.' It's paternalistic, not malicious, but it can create an issue. Or favoring those who look like you, like young males. It's hard to point to and say, 'Look, I've been discriminated against.' It's not like an offensive email you can take to HR as proof.
We've been ingrained with what a strong leader looks like, and it's almost always a tall, Caucasian man, often with gray hair. A woman, a young woman, or a woman of color is the opposite of that image. It takes time for people to get used to that image when all of us have been indoctrinated to see the ideal leader very differently.

City mulls options for budget surplus
Council is considering restoring library hours, traffic calming, increased staffing
$1.3 Million
extra cash the council will have for the 2013-14 fiscal year
For the first time in five years, the city of Oceanside will have money to spare as the City Council prepares a spending plan for the coming fiscal year, City Manager Peter Weiss said last week.
"It's positive, it's good news," Weiss said.
Council members will begin setting spending priorities for the 2013-14 fiscal year at a workshop at 2 p.m. Wednesday at City Hall.
Not only will the city be able to avoid making any additional cuts in services or personnel, but the council is in a position to restore some services, at least for now, Weiss said.
"We can take a break here, we can breathe a sigh of relief," Weiss said.
He said that, as things stand now, the council will have an extra $1.3 million to dole out for the fiscal year that begins July 1.
The extra cash comes from money the city is getting back from the dissolution of its redevelopment agency and a refund of county charges for administrative fees relating to property tax collection.
When the state ordered an end to redevelopment agencies statewide last year, redevelopment money that would have gone for affordable housing was redistributed to a variety of agencies including the city for its general fund, which covers most day-to-day city functions.
Because the money is a one-time infusion of cash and will not be available in future years, Weiss is advising that the city use it to cover expenses that will not be recurring or can easily be cut back.
Possibilities for that money, outlined by Weiss in a memo to the council, included restoring library hours, stepping up maintenance of the Municipal Pier, increasing street repairs, increasing code enforcement and resurrecting a traffic calming program aimed a slowing traffic in residential neighborhoods.
The extra cash with no immediate shortfall looming is in sharp contrast to the past several years, in which the council slashed spending on a wide range of services, cutting back on library hours, closing one of the city's two swimming pools and eliminating more than 150 jobs since the 2008-09 fiscal year.
"I'm cautiously optimistic that things are improving, which is indicated by us not having to do any reductions," Weiss said.
Still, Weiss sounded a note of caution, warning that a year from now the city could be facing a budget shortfall of up to $1.7 million due to the rising costs of health insurance and pensions for city workers.
City sales tax and property tax revenue is rising, but not fast enough to keep pace, Weiss said.
Nevertheless, he said it's too early to begin planning for possible future shortfalls.
"Let's take a break, let's reconvene in September or October, see where we are, what we've got to do for the next year," Weiss said.
Some of the $1.7 million 2014-15 shortfall could be erased by concessions from city labor groups, Weiss said. Several contracts, including the police contract, are up for negotiation and the city has been pressing for concessions as contracts expire.
"If we keep doing what we've been doing, that $1.7 million should drop significantly," Weiss said.
Councilman Jerry Kern said because of past spending cuts and other steps the council has taken, "the city's actually in good shape."
"I'm optimistic that things are going to get better, but I'm cautiously optimistic. I'm not going to run out there and start spending everything," Kern said.
Paying off some outstanding bonds and restoring library hours would be his top priorities, Kern said.
"If we can restore library hours, that's the one thing I hear from people," Kern said. "Those are easily restored and if things go bad again, we'll have to roll back on those."

Hello All
I have got a strange problem with the Anti-virus and Anti-spam. I don't know was it because of automatic online update or my upgrade from ZCS 3.0 to 3.1. I have had this problem for quite some time. When I start the ZC server, AV and AS sevices don't start. The status show that they are off as well. But I see that amavis and clamd are running and people get these loads of antivirus content filter checks notification from the server. So it shows that there is some sort of AV service working. Up to this point these was no problem for me. But as the number of virus attacks increased, people are getting loads of notifications and complain. I turned off virus notification sevice from Admin's GUI but still the notifications come. Following is the "ls" of my Zimbra's directory. Any ideas?
amavisd cyrus-sasl libexec postfix-2.2.9
amavisd-new-2.3.3 cyrus-sasl-2.1.21.ZIMBRA log redolog
apache-tomcat-5.5.15 db logger server.ldif

contrib kibo1 postfix zimlets-extra
convertd lib postfix-2.2.5
Another important point is that clamd.pid is there but amavis.pid is not present.

Man sentenced to 20 years in shooting case
Published: Wednesday, April 3, 2013 at 3:27 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 3, 2013 at 3:27 p.m.
OCALA – A judge on Wednesday sentenced an Ocala man to 20 years in prison for shooting another man following an argument over $5.
Michael Tyrone "Mike Check" Watts, 28, with his attorney Jerry Streeter by his side, told Circuit Judge S. Edwards-Stephens that life was hard for him because of family issues and said the man he shot had a reputation of being a bully and a thief in the neighborhood and he had felt backed into a corner.
Watts told the judge he knew what he did was wrong, and added "I loved the dude."
He described the incident as a misunderstanding that went the wrong way.
Before announcing the sentence, the judge told Watts he was the only one who could control his actions.
Watts pleaded guilty to attempted second-degree murder with a firearm involving discharge and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
The judge ruled he had credit time served for 221 days. He also will have to pay fines and court costs and submit a DNA sample. He is forbidden to have any contact with the victim or his family.
Assistant State Attorney Nick Camuccio represented the state at the hearing.
Ocala Police Department officials said Watts and the victim, Shedrick Welch, 35, were arguing outside Parkside Garden Apartments last summer because Watts owed Welch $5. The argument escalated and Welch was shot in the arm. Watts briefly walked away and then returned, looked at Welch, then left the area.
The shooting was captured on surveillance video.
In an interview with a Star-Banner reporter after his arrest, Watts said Welch had forcefully taken $375 from his pocket five days before the shooting. He said Welch later confronted him about $5 and the two argued. He admitted shooting Welch, who was unarmed. He said he was afraid of Welch because the man is larger in size than he is.
Welch is presently incarcerated in the Marion County Jail, charged with aggravated battery and attempted strong-arm robbery after police say he tried to wrestle $20 from the hand of a pregnant woman.

3 arrested on charges of neglecting dairy cattle
Published: Saturday, March 1, 2014 at 11:28 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, March 1, 2014 at 11:28 p.m.
GRACEVILLE, Fla. — Three Holmes County residents are charged with animal cruelty for allegedly neglecting a herd of 90 dairy cattle.
Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam announced the arrests Friday, which followed a routine food safety inspection of Wild Rose Dairy. The dairy is located in Graceville, which is 60 miles north of Panama City near the Alabama-Florida state line.
Department inspectors detected unsanitary conditions at the dairy and issued a stop sale order. A department veterinarian confirmed that the poor condition of the cattle was due to neglect. Cattle able to travel were transferred to another local dairy.
Arrest warrants were issued for the people responsible for managing the dairy. All three were charged with animal cruelty, a third degree felony, and unlawful disposal of animal carcasses.

Participation in question as Nov. 6 elections near
1 2 Next page >
With a New York voter participation rate that ranks 47th in the nation over the last three federal elections, a number of organizations in Nassau County worked diligently to help eligible citizens register before the Oct. 12 deadline and to raise voter awareness.
According to a study by Nonprofit Vote, New York had the fourth lowest turnout among eligible voters, 35.6 percent, for the 2010-midterm elections. In 2008, for the last presidential election, New York ranked 43 among all states in voter turnout.
"It's the core of our democracy," said Liz Boylan, a member of the League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan organization that encourages active participation in the elections. "If you want to be heard, that's the way you do it. But you can't be heard if you're not registered and don't vote."
According to the Nassau County Board of Elections there are currently more than 322,000 Republicans registered, more than 255,000 Democracts registered and more than 198,000 independent voters registered.
According to Boylan, the LOWV held events to register voters ahead of the deadline, which was Oct. 12. The LOWV Central Nassau chapter held multiple events at Adelphi University and last April helped register seniors at South Side High School.
"The idea is to get seniors involved in the voting process as early as possible," said Marion Fleming, the voting registration chair of the LOWV Central Nassau. "We talk to them a bit about the league, and we add our own little appeal for not simply registering but also going to vote when the time is right."
Fleming said that the LOWV had registered nearly 150 students to vote.
Brian Lupo, the New York Public Interest Research Group's project coordinator at Nassau Community College, said that the group has been hard at work to register college students since the semester began.
"Because of the prices of higher education, tuition has skyrocketed, and a lot of people, especially at public institutions, don't want to see more budgets cut," Lupo said. "It's so important politicians see how much an enormous voting block students can be as far as an age demographic. We want to make sure every student has the opportunity to vote."

Health Department Will Continue HIV Testing Despite Reimbursement Cuts

The Wheeling-Ohio County Health Department plans to continue its HIV testing and counseling services despite a cut in reimbursement funding....
I would not let Gamble know you are HIV positive. He will make sure "they" pick you up in their mobile command vehicle and take you to their facility when the time comes. In hi8s eyes, he will just be protecting the collective aka the general public.

A Comparative Study of Navigation Using Single vs. Community Driven Tag Clouds on Websites
Naureen Nizam, Anatoliy Gruzd and Carolyn Watters
Monday, 6:30pm
The purpose of this study is to compare two variations of tag clouds, one where
the tags are created by a single author and the other where the tags are created by a community of authors. Using mixed methodologies, data was captured
and analyzed for efficiency and enjoyment. The results show that tag clouds, where the tags are created by a single author are more efficient and enjoyable
for navigation than those created by a community of authors. The findings from this study also provide recommendations for future research in improving tag
based navigation on websites.

Healthy skin begins with a clean, purified surface that comes from NeoStrata Cleansers. Dirt, debris, makeup and other impurities along with excess oil can build up on the skin's surface and lead to a host of problems including dullness and acne breakouts. NeoStrata Cleansers gently remove impurities and excess sebum while minimizing irritation. NeoStrata Cleansers are clinical grade cleansers that are highly effective without unnecessary added ingredients such as fragrance and dyes.
NeoStrata Cleansers should be considered the first step in an effective skin care regimen. NeoStrata Cleansers create a clean slate that allows moisturizers and treatment products to perform better. While many cleansers strip the skin of vital moisture, NeoStrata Cleansers were developed to balance the skin and leave it soft and comfortable. NeoStrata Cleansers are tough on impurities but gentle on the skin.
NeoStrata Cleansers should be used morning and night prior to using any other products from NeoStrata. NeoStrata Cleansers come in different formulas to accommodate different skin types and skin concerns. Some of the NeoStrata Cleansers are specialized products which offer additional benefits aside from cleansing. Sticking to a skin care system that includes NeoStrata Cleansers can help achieve a healthy and balanced complexion with fewer problems.
For every complexion, there are NeoStrata Cleansers that will improve the condition and health of the skin's surface as well as the performance of all products that follow.
NeoStrata Foaming Glycolic Wash AHA 20 Duo is a packaged set of two full sized cleansers containing an 18% glycolic compound for exceptional exfoliation. This cleanser is also available for individual purchase. This is a soap free deep cleansing product that powers out impurities and rids the surface of clogging and dulling dead skin cells. NeoStrata Foaming Glycolic Wash AHA 20 Duo is perfect for aging skin as the formula smoothes out fine lines and wrinkles to reveal an even, more radiant complexion. While this is a very effective cleanser, the special formula helps reduce irritation.
NeoStrata Facial Cleanser – PHA 4 is a gentle soap free cleanser that is appropriate for all skin types, even dry and sensitive. This is an exfoliating formula that is very gentle yet effective at removing impurities and dead skin cells. The skin's surface is left feeling smooth and clean but also soft and balanced with moisturizers. NeoStrata Facial Cleanser PHA 4 Duo offers two full sized cleansers for value and convenience.

This undergraduate program improves studio practice and develops critical and creative thinking skills by examining core topics in modern art.
The Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Art History and Critical Studies program focuses on modern and contemporary issues with emphasis on the concerns directly impacting practicing artists. The curriculum is designed for students who want to explore contemporary
visual culture while practicing their own art. The program allows
students a focused studio concentration along with the art history
Comprised of practicing artists, curators of major exhibitions in the United States and aboard, and acclaimed art critics, the art history faculty help students make meaningful connections between theories and practices of art.
Students graduating with a bachelor's degree in art history are able to pursue graduate-level study in the discipline, and are considered for entry-level
positions in museums and galleries. Critical thinking skills attained through undergraduate art history programs also create career opportunities in marketing, finance, journalism and education fields.
At the culmination of the Art History program, students write an in-depth twenty page senior thesis exploring a topic related to art since 1900. Students work closely with an advisor throughout the research and writing process and, upon completion of your thesis, participate in an oral defense before a faculty committee.
Students examine the complexity of humankind's relationship to the natural world, and the rich variety of artistic responses it has inspired. Taking a thematic approach, the course explores selected topics across chronological, geographic and cultural lines, including: varieties of landscape painting in the West and the East and the expressive shaping of landscape across the centuries. Topics discussed include Neolithic earth formations, landscape design, development of the Olmsted urban park systems, recent Land Art, as well as the rise of a modern-day ecological consciousness with its expression through art.
This course explores the major turning points in the perception and definition of sculpture in the twentieth century, with special attention to its relation to the modernist and postmodernist discourses in painting, photography, and architecture.

About this font family
Frederic Goudy joined Lanston as art advisor in 1920. One of his first initiatives was to design a new version of Garamond based on original Garamond designs of 1540. Goudy intended his free-hand drawings to be cut exactly as he had drawn them and fought with the workmen at Lanston to keep them from "correcting" his work. This new type was called Garamont (an acceptable alternate spelling) to distinguish it from other Garamonds on the market. (The other Garamonds on the market at that time were later confirmed to be the work of Jean Jannon.) More…

This is a major turn off for me. I just downloaded Zimbra Desktop to try it first time and I got this message about POP3 not able to leave messages on server. Wow, I can't believe this. Am I doing something wrong or is this really an issue with Zimbra?
It's a simple feature that works on any other email client just fine.
So I haven't even gotten to the point where I could evaluate the program, test it or find out whether I like it or not, I got stuck at this message when I was trying to set up my email in first few minutes of using it.
If this is really the case and it is not fixed, I'll uninstall the program and keep using Thunderbird, it is really useless to me if I can't keep messages on server.
Btw., I'm trying to setup my company email provided by speakeasy.

Isospectral Drums
Application ID: 119
Striking a drum excites a spectrum of vibration modes that together make up the instrument's characteristic sound or acoustic signal. These vibration modes correspond to the eigenmodes, or eigenfunctions, of the drum's membrane. Thus you can study this problem by solving eigenvalue problems for stretched membranes.
Two different geometric shapes are modeled, with all other parameters being equal. If you can find two differently shaped membranes that have identical eigenvalues—in other words, they are isospectral—then it's not possible to "hear" the shape of a specific drum.

16 Blocks (2006)
16 Blocks Synopsis
16 Blocks is a character-driven action thriller that stars Bruce Willis as Jack Mosley, a broken down NY detective assigned to escort a petty criminal (Mos Def) from the precinct to the courthouse. The seemingly simple 16 block journey becomes a test of character for them when Jacks ex-partners attempt to stop them. Its the story of how two men change each other during a tense 110-minute struggle between life and death.
Anyone else have the words Die Hard 3 flashing on and off in their head?
16 Blocks is Richard Donners chance at redemption, or maybe itd be better to call it his last chance to return to relevancy. Once one of the premier directors in Hollywood, 76-year-old Donner hasnt made anything worth noticing since Maverick back in 1994. Hes been making movies, theyre just not noteworthy, except those which are noteworthy for their badness.
Itll be tough forgiving the man who forced Timeline upon us, but Donner was great once and if he can return to form Im willing to forget his past transgressions against cinema. 16 Blocks is loaded with potential as a taut, small-scale little thriller, and though Bruce Willis is a known quality commodity, Mos Def has quietly been proving himself as a capable actor.
Keep an eye out for 16 Blocks. As Bruce Williss Hostage was last year, this could be one of 2006s early surprises.

Capacity Fade of a Lithium-Ion Battery
Application ID: 12667
This 1D model example demonstrates how to use the Events interface in conjunction with a battery cell model to simulate battery capacity loss during cycling.
The battery is switched between constant voltage and constant current operation, both during charge and discharge.
Cycleable lithium is lost in the negative electrode due to a parasitic lithium/solvent reduction reaction.

I agree with some of the other review, needs a more beefy flavor. I will make it again and try adding more beef broth and less water.
This is perfect by itself. But, if you want a little side dish, I made this with the Three Cheese Corn Casserole. I little slice went perfect with the soup.

Count down to Christmas with these festive movies. Did your favorite holiday film make our list?
>> Movies 1 – 5 | 6 – 10 | 11 – 15 | 16 – 20 | 21 – 25 <<
21. Holiday Inn (1942)
Photo: AP
Holiday Inn | 100 min | Passed
Starring: Bing Crosby, Fred Astaire, Marjorie Reynolds
Three performers with a popular musical act prepare to give their final performance on Christmas Eve when Lila decides she doesn't want to quit show business and marry Jim, so she runs off with Ted. Jim retires to a farm in Connecticut where he decides to build a seasonal venue called "Holiday Inn." This film follows the activities of the Inn through a year of holidays and romantic tension. It's a solid classic and the film "White Christmas" was written for!
22. Edward Scissorhands (1990)
Photo: AP/Julien's Auctions/Shaan Koki
Edward Scissorhands | 105 min | PG-13
Starring: Johnny Depp, Winona Ryder, Dianne Wiest, Anthony Michael Hall
Arguably Tim Burton's masterpiece, Edward Scissorhands pairs a young Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder and places them into a fantasy land that look eerily like suburbia. After a run in with a door-to-door saleswoman (Avon Lady calling!) Edward comes down from his gothic mansion and integrates into the neighborhood. After some initial hesitation the neighbors begin to take him in, but it proves to be too much and things go bad. One of the most beautiful Christmas films made, this movie will have you dancing in the snow yourself.
23. White Christmas (19)
Photo: AP
White Christmas | 120 min | Approved
Starring: Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, Vera-Ellen
Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye meet up with another successful music act featuring Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen in this classic holiday masterpiece. The couples travel to a Vermont lodge for the holidays in the hope of performing for skiing clientele, but arrive to find the slopes dry and abandoned by tourists. When the men realize the lodge owner is their struggling former commander they rally the troops and put on the performance of a lifetime. Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney are fantastic, but they might get these catchy songs stuck in your head!
24. A Christmas Story (1983)
Photo: AP/Ann Johansson
A Christmas Story | 94 min | PG
Starring: Peter Billingsley, Jean Shepherd, Melinda Dillon, Darren McGavin
The fluffy pink bunny pajamas. The gleaming leg lamp. The terrifying Santa shouting "Ho. Ho. Ho.". This film offers up some of the most iconic Christmas moments in Hollywood cinema. It's hard to believe this 1940s Christmas tale was only released in the 1980s! Follow young Ralphie's quest to convince his parents he needs a Red Ryder B.B. gun, but make sure you don't shoot your eye out!
25. It's a Wonderful Life (1946)
Photo: AP
It's a Wonderful Life | 130 min | Approved
Starring: James Stewart, Donna Reed, Henry Travers
What would the world be life if you were never born? That's the wish George Bailey makes in this classic Christmas tale. After he falls on hard times George is tempted to end it all, until he is stopped at the last minute by Clarence the guardian angel. Clarence takes George Bailey into a parallel world where his wish is granted so he can see just how everything would have turned out. This is not the happiest of Christmas movies, but you'll learn a lesson of appreciation and love that's unrivaled by any other film!

A Hotter PTWritten by on June 21, 2002 Mothers Steps Up With a V-6-Urged Cruiser
The PT Cruiser was introduced to much fanfare. The future/past retro styling teamed with minivan/SUV/station wagon elements caught the attention of the American car-buying public. This sure looked like a hot rod--or at least what the public thought was a hot rod. The dramatic styling is cool, but there's never been a real push to get real performance from the PT. Oh sure, we've heard about Hemi-powered versions being built, but there's a very tiny niche for something at that level. We feel the enthusiast public would have liked to see something a bit more real--and also something capable of passing most local smog tests.
Enter Mothers. Those in the know have seen Mothers promote their fine product by building a stable full of great cars. We've all seen their sedan delivery, and PHR featured the Olds of Mothers' own Gary Turnau on our pages in the past. Mothers also wanted to do a PT Cruiser, but they wanted some specific mods to make it interesting. It had to have the sedan delivery styling mother Mopar was toying with in concept form, and it had to have more power than the factory four-popper could deliver without radical modifications.
Mothers did the wise thing--they coordinated with the Gaffoglio family at Metalcrafters of Fountain Valley, California (www.metalcrafters.com), for the sedan delivery conversion and placement of their V-6 of choice. Then, they called PHR for advice on how to get it running right.
The 3.8L V-6 is standard in Mopar minivans, and it's no technical nightmare. The 3.8 is a traditional pushrod design but was not the first choice. Mothers first call on a V-6 was the 3.5L overhead cam engine found in most Chrysler front-drivers. Unfortunately, the wide cam boxes atop the heads proved to be impossible to mount to the stock trans-- they were simply too wide. The 3.8L (and its compact pushrod design) made the swap possible, but since minivans don't come with five-speed manual transmissions, there was no factory computer that could run it.
We advised Mothers to call Harv's Performance in Whittier, California (562/907-7834). We've worked with Harv's on several of our own computer-controlled project cars, and the crew at Harv's has always been both knowledgeable and nice. In many cases, nice is more important than knowledgeable, as patience and persistence often are the most important tools to use when dealing with modern computerized hot rods. It's really good to have both.
Shop owner Harv St. Mary chose to outfit the engine with FAST injection--a system with which they are intimately familiar. Since no harness exists to link this management system to the 3.8L Chrysler, Harv had to make one. This custom installation would not accept factory exhaust manifolds either, so Duane Dodson of The Other Guys teamed up with Mesa Muffler to develop custom headers and a complete custom exhaust system under the PT. The exhaust system is finished off by pair of carbon fiber-look exhaust tips (manufactured by Sebring Tuning) filling the cutouts in the rear valance.
Once the work was completed, the resulting performance was worth the effort. Now boasting 215 horses and 245 lb-ft, the PT was a reliable and enjoyable driver.
The envelope housing the V-6 is nothing to scoff at, either! The crew at Metalcrafters doesn't do anything halfway, and since they developed the delivery style for Chrysler (just one among many of their OEM concept car projects), upgrading this PT was fairly easy. The panels from Metalcrafters simply mount over the existing body, and the final appearance looks factory--a credit to the work done routinely by the expert craftsmen at Metalcrafters.
The aftermarket again contributed with a front bumper/valance and hood from P-Teazer (714/903-9000, www.pteazer.com) to smooth out the front end. A P-Teazer rear valance and wing were also used to improve the look from the rear.
With bodywork completed and a basecoat of BASF Glasurit Black sprayed by Metalcrafters, the PT found its way to Chip Foose's shop where the wild flame job was laid out. Noted Everett, Washington, airbrush artist Mike Lavallee (www.killerpaint.com) laid out the lifelike licks, and the amazing results look too hot to touch. Foose then lettered the delivery with Mothers own logo.
Luckily, the PT craze spawned a wide range of wheel and tire choices, and Mothers chose Foose Design "Monterey" 18-inch diameter hoops up front with matching 20-inchers out back. Shod with Toyo Proxes T1-S tires, they add to the pleasure of driving this particular example. Lowering is accomplished through use of adjustable Air Ride Technologies air struts and QA1 shocks. The Ride Pro four-way system boasts independent bag control, and pressures are monitored and adjusted through a custom switch panel and digital gauges mounted in the center console.
While the vehicle is not officially "smog legal," it's really close. It would probably pass the tailpipe sniffer test, but since the mods have not been approved by the clueless powers-that-be in California, it's technically still an outlaw.
Regardless, the Mothers crew is mighty proud of their project, and they should be. They coordinated with some of the best in the business to develop a solid, reliable, effective little hot rod PT that really performs.
Where most PT enthusiasts are satisfied with "appearance-only" mods, the real hot rodders at Mothers knew more could be done without radically altering the vehicle, and this is the finest example of a street-worthy, damn-near-legal PT we've seen yet. It may not have needed the killer flame job to prove it was hot, but we're glad it got the two extra cylinders to back up the searing looks of the licks!

The factory retro look is what sold many on the PT, but these aftermarket goodies from P-Teazer will smooth it out a bit more. Smooth is a critical factor on deliveries like this--with so much clean real estate along the side of the vehicle, you don't want the rest of it to appear busy. The dual-bulge hood and front grille/valance are well engineered for fit. The clunky factory front bumper was a necessary evil for Chrysler; we don't need it anymore.The Metalcrafters sedan delivery conversion is about as easy as it gets, since they did the homework first! The form-fitting interior and exterior panels are simply installed over existing parts. The final appearance (after adding rocker covers and carefully blending all the seams) looks factory, which was the goal. The rear valance cover (another P-Teazer part) finishes off the smooth look and offers dual exhaust pipes a place to exit.
Metalcrafters is horribly overqualified to do these mods. We snapped a quick photo of what they usually do--create full-size steel concept cars for OEMs. That's mighty impressive stuff to garage gearheads like us.Metalcrafters did the engine swap, too. Creating space for the crate V-6 to live where the factory four-popper came wasn't incredibly trick but did require plenty of measuring and fabrication to be done right. As we all know--getting an engine in place and having it work well are two very different things.A minimal amount of layout is required, as Mike does all of the actual flame painting in freehand. By laying the loose idea for the flames in white, he can keep adding color and shape as he desires.

The next time you visit the Rifle businesses along the south side of the Colorado River, imagine the area without I-70, without the hospital, stores or restaurants, or without the steady stream of traffic that curls in and out 24 hours a day.
That's how it looked for Harold Shaeffer, whose family farmed sugar beets and raised cattle along the banks of the Colorado River in the 1930s and '40s.
Shaeffer's father, Jake, came to Silt to work at the age of 15. The orphaned son of German immigrants, with only a sixth-grade education, Jake eventually earned enough money to buy his own farm. He married Frieda Bencel of Silt in 1930.
"Farming was the only thing they knew," Shaeffer said. "Dad was an excellent farmer. It was a hard living, but a solid income."
In 1948, when Harold was 10, his parents bought property on Hunter Mesa, south of Rifle.
"It was just a sagebrush mesa," Harold said. "That's when I went to work, in the summers, helping my dad."
Harold attended school in Rifle, graduating from Rifle High School in 1956 with his future wife, Roberta.
"Rifle was a good place to grow up in the '40s and '50s," he said. "Most of the people were farmers and ranchers, or they worked at the vanadium carbide mill. We had a pretty solid workforce."
The couple married in 1960, after finishing college. They traveled extensively, living and working in Colombia, Mexico and Connecticut, then returned home to Colorado with their two children in 1976, right in the midst of the oil shale boom. Harold went back to work with his father, and Roberta taught middle school in Rifle.
The coming interstate bisected the Shaeffer's riverfront property. When the Shaeffers tried to negotiate to keep their land on one side of the proposed highway, the government claimed "eminent domain" and took possession of 50 acres of the original property. The family eventually sold the remaining land.
"When the government comes in and takes what is yours, it's really upsetting," Shaeffer said.
The experience has made him a staunch defender of personal property rights, a passion he put to use during a stint on the Garfield County Planning and Zoning Commission.
"I've lived through mineral extraction and development in Rifle," he said, recalling the Anvil Points, Colony and other oil shale projects, and most recently, the natural gas boom.
"If I could change something, it would be to have the feds, the state, the county and the city governments come up with a plan for development when the energy companies show up, instead of burdening them with regulations," Shaeffer said. "We live in a resource-rich part of the world and we need those resources to be developed."

Day 2 in the Big Apple – Game Day
Apparently there is an All-Star Game going on in New York. At least that's what Vice President of Communications and Broadcasting Mike Swanson (Swanee) keeps telling Around the Horn.
If you watched last night, the Home Run Derby was by all accounts, amazing. The Rangers' Josh Hamilton didn't get the memo that Yankee Stadium isn't scheduled for demolition until this off season and started working on that last night, launching a total of 35 homers into the stands (this is an 8-mintue video) with several into the 3rd deck and one off Bank of America sign on the back wall of the stadium. Minnesota's Justin Morneau edged him in the finals by a score of 5-3. The AL Central's other entrant was impressive too, Cleveland's Grady Sizemore didn't make it out of the first round. Swanee was in charge of the AL Derby contestants and his other guy, Tampa Bay's Evan Longoria hit three.
Swanee had good seats for the show, sitting behind Chicago's Joe Crede. That's Hamilton at the plate during his historic first round. He broke Bobby Abreu's 2005 record of 24 first rounder shots, with 28 last night.
Around the Horn is curious if Swanee's neck is okay from craning his neck to watch all the shots Hamilton and Morneau, both lefties, hit to right field (they combined for 57 bombs during the competition).
If you were curious, the longest homer in the Majors this season (according to Hit Tracker Online) is 485 feet by Adam Dunn just last week on July 10th. That is not an official measurement but the estimated true or actual distance the home run would have flown if it had traveled all the way back to the field level.
If you check that site out, you'll notice that John Buck owns the longest home run by standard distance at 478 feet, which is the same as true distance but factors out wind, temperature and altitude. Buck's April 9th shot is also second on Hit Tracker's charts for speed off bat, which estimates his homer came off the bat at 121.6 mph.
Today, Swanee has been all over New York. FOX was setting up and rolling out the red carpet for the parade.
The All-Star parade ran right past Radio City Music Hall. Swanee didn't say if he stopped to see a show.
He did see Royals Director of Community Relations Ben Aken who's in New York helping with some of the All-Star games charity work. In this picture he's standing off to the side of the Boys and Girls Club.
And he saw former Cubs' star Mark Grace interviewing a Hall of Famer you should all recognize. And since we were talking homers in Yankee Stadium, George Brett is a very fitting choice for Grace to talk to.
Brett hit 17 regular season and five postseason homers in the "House that Ruth Built" and holds a lifetime .311 average there.
Royals fans won't forget the "Pine Tar" Game or his homer in the 1980 playoffs.
And lastly, but definitely not least, Swanee saw the All-Star Joakim Soria with his wife, Karla.
Again today. Big thanks to Swanee and we here at Around the Horn who are still in Kansas City hope he's having a great time in New York.
He's on AL Clubhouse duty tonight for the game. You can be close to the action too without even being in the Big Apple. FOX will have complete coverage of the game tonight which starts at 7 p.m. CT.
