The Lifetime Achievement Award adopted by the AWN board of directors in 1988, is reserved for women in the region who have achieved milestones in a profession or career over an extended period of time.

To request an application, contact Rosemary Eaves via email at firstname.lastname@example.com. The deadline for complete applications is Dec. 15.
Soroptimist is concerned with the challenges facing today's girls and young women. The organization launched the Violet Richardson Award program in 2000 as a way to recognize girls for their volunteer service to their communities. The program is named after Violet Richardson Ward, the first president of the first Soroptimist club. Richardson Ward was committed to creating opportunities for girls and young women through her affiliations with Soroptimist, the Girl Scouts Council and the American Association of University Women.
Soroptimist International of Amarillo is now accepting applications for the Woman of Opportunity Award.
The Women's Opportunity Awards program is Soroptimist's major women's education project. Through the program, clubs in 19 countries and territories assist women who provide the primary source of financial support for their families by giving them the resources they need to improve their education, skills and employment prospects.
Each year, more than $1.5 million is disbursed through cash awards at various levels of the organization. Recipients of the Women's Opportunity Awards, many of whom have overcome enormous obstacles including poverty, domestic violence and drug and alcohol abuse, may use the awards to offset any costs associated with their efforts to attain higher education, such as books, childcare and transportation.
Eligible applicants must be women who provide the primary financial support for their families, and who are enrolled in or have been accepted to a vocational/skills training program or an undergraduate degree program. Applicants must demonstrate financial need. Only residents of Soroptimist International of the Americas' 19 member countries and territories are eligible to apply.

Thinking about the V-Wag...too many choices....??
New member posting...trying to get some feedback from forum members regarding the V-Wagon...(I think)...
So here is the current issue...looking for a 500hp beast for a daily driver. I used to have a Jeep SRT-8 which was a blast, but had to let it go. At the time I had an e39 M5 and got rid of that in favor of driving the Jeep everyday...they are a blast.
So there is the new 2012 Jeep SRT8 - but only about 465hp and $65k and in the performance falls a litte short of the V cars...not by much but the deficit is there.
So then the V-Wagon came out...pretty impressive, have yet to see one in person. Trying to locate a dealer to drive this thing is near impossible. I have no idea what the V-cars are like...my guess is you could drive the sedan and get an idea of what to expect with the wagon??
Even finding a V just sitting is a bit of an issue (MD,VA,DC) area. I am a stranger to GM products (except that I am well traveled so I know the rental fleet well...) I guess I am a little leary of GM, qaulity, builds etc.
Other cars looked at are the S4, M3, C63...no surprises there...about the same price range. Really would want a manual though...
So the purpose of this post? Well, I know when you post on these forums you get alot of "sure come on in, buy a V, the water is warm and here is some nice kool-aid to drink :-) Just trying to get some folks that have come from similiar cars and now are V owners. Maybe those that were like wow a GM product...never. I could care less just never owned one...
So like I said I had a Jeep SRT8, and an M5. Currently have a 2010 LR4 (nice ride) and an old Disco II (and a 911 race car)...so I think I got the AWD thing covered for winters. I read a bunch about with the right tires you can use the V year round (we do get snow here)...but likely just hop in one of the Land Rovers if bad weather.
Also on price - what is realistic? I have heard discounts of up to $10k off...some say no discounts.
Thanks in advance for any info and thoughts.
Re: Thinking about the V-Wag...too many choices....??
Come on in, buy a V, the water is warm!
Discounts can indeed be had. Depends on where you buy it. The way the V drives is amazing. Planted, sure footed, competent, fast, anything positive applies.
I'll leave it to others to start adding comments.

Re: Thinking about the V-Wag...too many choices....??
owned mostly German for last 10 years...S8, 911, cl65 AMG, RS6(still do) and now the Vagon. A cars initial attraction is in the eye of the beholder IMO. I fell in love with the body(I like big butts and I cannot lie...sorry I digress), the grill/bumper/hood spews testasterone...Its mean looking, the stance is aggressive. The wagon, a wagon! I have always like sport versions wagons, ie rs6 avant(only available in Europe) Interior, very well done, finish and fitment excellent. The recaros are a dream. The climate/nav/radio intiutive to use. I will say, being 6'-4", when I slide the seat back and because of my choice for a huge sunroof...it is tight but not claustrophobic. I know behind me the legroom is tight. Now even better, I can store lots of stuff in back, fold seats down and I can throw couch in there.
performance....come on, this engines cousin is the LS9, ZR1...fast and easily made ludicrous fast with a few mods.....Handling, hands down the best handling car, I may get flamed from Porsche owners, but in sport mode I am just as cofident taking a tight corner hard as when I drove my porsche...GM knocked the ball out of the park with the electromagnetoblahblah suspension.
I have only had the car 2 months, and I start her up with a smile everytime.

10,400 miles on my 2011 V-wagon & still
Re: Thinking about the V-Wag...too many choices....??
Nice! thanks for the reply. I guess one thing that does concern me is size, I mean with 3 kids I need space but, one of the drawbacks of the M5 when I had it was the size, not the physical size just that is felt big and balky and not real tossable. I mean the Jeep SRT8 felt tossable and was rock solid and dead nuts reliable, you could really beat on it. The M5 was so delicate with its clutch and driveline...so I got rid of it.
Not a fan of big sedans but it seems this thing is able to be tossed around. Watching the video of US top gear with the wagon on the track was pretty ridiculous, I was waiting for that thing to get flustered but it really hung in there and looked like it was being driven on the edge of control the entire time...says alot. I have not honestly seen one bad review (even the UK Top Gear) for the sedan warmed up to it on their US road trip. The wagon is just ridiculous...kinda fun to drive around in something like that. Kinda like a Suburban humped a Corvette and the Vagon popped out...9 mos later.
Anyway I guess these are the types of comments I am looking for (I got flammed selling my M5 for driving a Jeep everyday, but it was simply better, all around hands down) people that have had other significant performance cars. Feels good to go against the grain.

Re: Thinking about the V-Wag...too many choices....??
I owned an 07 & 08 Jeep srt8. The V blows them out of the water in terms of performance. I do feel the jeeps were put togethor a little "tighter" but the cost of the new jeep srt8 is very very marked up out of proportion. Get the V, heck. The used price value of V's has been increasing while the new 2012 will drop in price drastically after the first year just because alot of people that were interested in the 2012 could not justify the last minute 10$k price increase bomb that chrysler/jeep dropped. All the other srt8 models are 40-50k. The jeep will be 65K fully loaded. NOT justifiable

Re: Thinking about the V-Wag...too many choices....??
I have a manual sedan (2010) and it is my DD. I must admit there are times when I find myself wishing that I had been a bit more patient and waited to pull the trigger on the Vagon, but...
All I can suggest is that since you are obviously no stranger to high performance/luxury vehicles, that you make a point of finding a manual V that you can take for a spin. I think that you will see for yourself what an incredible combination of acceleration, torque, luxury, handling, braking and overall poise (not to mention value!) the V has! If you have an opportunity to drive one on a road course (or ride shotgun) you'll be able to get a sense of where on the overall performance scale the car's capabilities are. This is truly a supercar!
FWIW, my sedan was flawless out of the box. I had to replace a rear suspension sensor 2 weeks ago and the sunroof has a bit more wind noise at highway speeds than I would like. Aside from that, it's been no trouble whatsoever and it has totally exceeded my expectations. The more I drive it, the more I love and appreciate it.
Best regards,

Re: Thinking about the V-Wag...too many choices....??
Received Motor Trend today, Oct. issue. The mag includes a test of the 2012 Jeep SRT8. Still have my June issue with a test of the 2012 V-Wagon.
The Wagon is about 10 to 12 grand more then the Jeep. The Wagon offers auto or manual. Jeep auto only. Jeep is nearly 1,000 pounds more then the Wagon
Testing performed by same organization and people with the same methods.
Jeep SRT8 / Cadillac CTS-V Wagon
0-60: 4.5 sec / 4.0 sec
Quarter Mile: 13.0 sec @ 110.2 mph / 12.3 sec @ 116.7 mph
Braking 61-0: 114 ft / 104ft
Lateral Acceleration: 0.88g (avg)/ 0.92g (avg)
MT's Figure 8: 25.8 sec @ 0.72g (avg)/ 25.2 sec @ 0..75g (avg)
The reviewer comments, as the OP does, that the Jeep likes to be manhandled and tossed around.

Re: Thinking about the V-Wag...too many choices....??
If you asked me a year ago if I would ever drive a Cadillac I would have said No Way. But when I drove the Ctsv-wagon it was the first car that felt more light a machine instead of a car. There is no comparison to my E46 M3. I bought my Cts-v straight of the lot and got $5800 of the sticker plus 1k in GM points. It has auto but I actually enjoy not having to shift all the time.(do that enough with my other cars) The only thing that I wish I had was the recaros. Checked with the dealer and they said I can't order them or swap them. One of the cars I had always though I was going to buy was a E39M5.(the Perfect Car) its a much better ride than the E60M5(too rough) but once I drove the caddy the decision was made. I've got 4 kids I shuffle around and it works perfect. I went through all the options X5M, GLbluetec, MBamg, etc. But dollar for dollar nothing can or will be the deal you get with the Cts-v. The only problem is finding one or waiting for one. good luck with your decision.

Wedding Dresses and Accessories
Main Office Location:
110 West 20th Street
New York City, New York 10011
Phone: 646/633-4300
Kleinfeld might just be the most famous bridal salon in the world, and for good reason: First off, the store itself is huge, with commodious dressing rooms, inviting viewing areas, mirrors galore, the better to see yourself in one of the glorious creations. Even so, the store employs 200 dedicated bridal specialists so that the entire process—from browsing to delivery—is as smooth as possible. The consultants are experienced and knowledgeable, trained to interpret a bride's dress desires and guide her to that magic moment of…well, saying yes to the dress!
But with over 60 years of history, Kleinfeld has been a wedding tradition long before it became the subject of the hit TV series, Say Yes to the Dress; in fact, many brides (some journeying from a fair distance) consider a trip to Kleinfeld with her mother and BFF an important pre-wedding ritual. More often than not, they end up being seduced by the quality service and oodles of glamorous gowns on display.
The abundant wedding dress inventory includes dozens of top couture names, from Amsale to Ulla-Maija, along with a good selection of plus-size bridal gowns. Another attraction is the Kleinfeld Kollection, made up of exclusive lines such as Sophia Moncelli and Pnina Tornai, that convey a unique sense of style.
A bride will also find plenty of extras here, such as headpieces, accessories, expert alterations and even gown preservation. Their sister store, Kleinfeld Men, will keep the guys looking snappy, too.
Owners Ronnie and Mara are very hands-on with their iconic store, and have a clearly stated goal in mind at all times: "We want your experience in our store to be as memorable as your wedding day." From what we've heard, they're succeeding admirably.

Valdosta, GA - Valdosta State opened Gulf South Conference play against West Florida Friday night. The Argonauts, a perennial power in the GSC, proved to be too much for VSU with a 3-0 win. With the loss, Blazer volleyball drops to 0-1 in the GSC and 7-5 overall.
The Blazers came out hot early with a 3-1 lead. Then both teams teeter-tottered back and forth until West Florida gained control. After the 25-18 win in the first set, West Florida went on to sweep VSU, 25-18, 25-23, 25-11.
Valdosta State did put up a fight in the second set, answering every Argo point and even gaining a 22-20 advantage. The Blazers could only score one more point, however, before West Florida reached 25 points.
While Irene Hannan led the team in kills (nine), Anna Nichenko and Katie Onushko led in attacking percentage. Nichenko tallied three kills on four attacks for a .750 percentage while Onushko threw down six kills on a .625 percentage.
Emelia Saulter dished for 12 assists while Chelsea Luttfring notched 10 digs. Tania Tauiliili was in on two blocks to lead the team.
Valdosta State will get a chance to rebound against West Alabama at 4 p.m. Saturday.

Drug Information for ELMIRON -100 mg (pentosan polysulfate sodium) Capsules (Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.): ADVERSE REACTIONS
- Patient Leaflet
- PRINCIPAL DISPLAY PANEL - 100 mg Bottle Label
- External Links Related to ELMIRON -100 mg (pentosan polysulfate sodium) Capsules (Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.)
ELMIRON® was evaluated in clinical trials in a total of 2627 patients (2343 women, 262 men, 22 unknown) with a mean age of 47 [range 18 to 88 with 581 (22%) over 60 years of age]. Of the 2627 patients, 128 patients were in a 3 month trial and the remaining 2499 patients were in a long term, unblinded trial.
Deaths occurred in 6/2627 (0.2%) patients who received the drug over a period of 3 to 75 months. The deaths appear to be related to other concurrent illnesses or procedures, except in one patient for whom the cause was not known.
Serious adverse events occurred in 33/2627 (1.3%) patients. Two patients had severe abdominal pain or diarrhea and dehydration that required hospitalization. Because there was not a control group of patients with interstitial cystitis who were concurrently evaluated, it is difficult to determine which events are associated with ELMIRON® and which events are associated with concurrent illness, medicine, or other factors.
Adverse Experience In Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trials of ELMIRON® 100 mg Three Times a Day for 3 Months Body System/Adverse Experience ELMIRON®n=128 Placebon=130 CNS Overall Number of PatientsWithin a body system, the individual events do not sum to equal overall number of patients because a patient may have more than one event. 3 5 Insomnia 1 0 Headache 1 3 Severe Emotional Lability/Depression 2 1 Nystagmus/Dizziness 1 1 Hyperkinesia 1 1 GI Overall Number of Patients 7 7 Nausea 3 3 Diarrhea 3 6 Dyspepsia 1 0 Jaundice 0 1 Vomiting 0 2 Skin/Allergic Overall Number of Patients 2 4 Rash 0 2 Pruritus 0 2 Lacrimation 1 1 Rhinitis 1 1 Increased Sweating 1 0 Other Overall Number of Patients 1 3 Amenorrhea 0 1 Arthralgia 0 1 Vaginitis 1 1 Total Events 17 27 Total Number of Patients Reporting Adverse Events 13 19
The adverse events described below were reported in an unblinded clinical trial of 2499 interstitial cystitis patients treated with ELMIRON®. Of the original 2499 patients, 1192 (48%) received ELMIRON® for 3 months; 892 (36%) received ELMIRON for 6 months; and 598 (24%) received ELMIRON® for one year, 355 (14%) received ELMIRON® for 2 years, and 145 (6%) for 4 years.
Frequency (1 to 4%): Alopecia (4%), diarrhea (4%), nausea (4%), headache (3%), rash (3%), dyspepsia (2%), abdominal pain (2%), liver function abnormalities (1%), dizziness (1%).
Frequency (= 1%):
Digestive: Vomiting, mouth ulcer, colitis, esophagitis, gastritis, flatulence, constipation, anorexia, gum hemorrhage.
Hematologic: Anemia, ecchymosis, increased prothrombin time, increased partial thromboplastin time, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia.
Hypersensitive Reactions: Allergic reaction, photosensitivity.
Respiratory System: Pharyngitis, rhinitis, epistaxis, dyspnea.
Skin and Appendages: Pruritus, urticaria.
Special Senses: Conjunctivitis, tinnitus, optic neuritis, amblyopia, retinal hemorrhage.
Rectal Hemorrhage
ELMIRON® was evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, Phase 4 study conducted in 380 patients with interstitial cystitis dosed for 32 weeks. At a daily dose of 300 mg (n = 128), rectal hemorrhage was reported as an adverse event in 6.3% of patients. The severity of the events was described as "mild" in most patients. Patients in that study who were administered ELMIRON® 900 mg daily, a dose higher than the approved dose, experienced a higher incidence of rectal hemorrhage, 15%.
Liver Function Abnormality
A randomized, double-blind, parallel group, phase 2 study was conducted in 100 men (51 ELMIRON® and 49 placebo) dosed for 16 weeks. At a daily dose of 900 mg, a dose higher than the approved dose, elevated liver function tests were reported as an adverse event in 11.8% (n = 6) of ELMIRON® treated patients and 2% (n = 1) of placebo treated patients.

When you turn on the news, what do you hear? 1 in 10 people in South Africa have AIDS , Unemployment Reaches New High of 9.3 Percent , etc. Statistics is supposed to convey information in an objective and comprehendible way to the general population. However, this is usually not the case. Most of the present statistics use objectivity as a veil to hide the personal agendas behind the numbers.
Statistics are comprised of numbers and language, both these could be manipulated in a way to "bend" the truth.
In the mathematical sense, statistics are made from information gathered from a specific sample population that was asked a specific question, and then given an error margin. In order for the statistics to be valid, the sample population and error margins should be stated in the conclusion. Neglecting to mention any of these will cause the statistics to be misleading, for example, according to the U.S Bureau of Censes, the official unemployment rate in the U.S is 6% as of 2003. However, according to journalist Ed Finn, many groups were omitted in these government surveys, "the under-16 group, those on strike or locked out and those who weren't actively looking for work in the four weeks prior to the survey. But by far the largest groups omitted from the list of jobless in the U.S. are the working-age men who are out of work because they are in prison or on parole." After adding these groups of people, the unemployment rate comes to 11.4%, a major difference caused by concealing the sample in which the statistics was based on.
Language is another great factor that can be used to distort our understandings of the numbers...

Menu's Chevrolet team-mates Yvan Muller and Rob Huff were second and third quickest respectively, a qualifying result that sealed the constructors' championship for the team.
"It was a great result," said Menu. "This is a very difficult track and it's easy to make mistakes. Even more than at Sonoma, since this track is shorter and quicker.
"I have been on top since the beginning of the track activities, but Yvan and Rob have always been very close. I think any of us could have won pole position today."
Muller was disappointed not to be at the front of the grid but was happy to edge Huff and therefore boost his hopes of taking the title.
"Today you could win or lose pole position because of a marginal mistake. I had looked for the limit of the car in practice and it helped," he said.
"I was trying to push as hard as I could. But obviously it was not enough to beat Alain. Anyway, better than nothing, I have pocketed one more point compared to Rob. Now every little thing counts for the title fight."

"Keeweechic's Mesquite" Mesquite by keeweechic
Mesquite Travel Guide: 62 reviews and 127 photos
Mesquite is a city in Dallas county which was established in 1873 when the Texas and Pacific Railway acquired the land, built a depot and offered lots for sale. No one is sure but it is believed that the name Mesquite was taken from an abundant amount of mesquite trees in the area. The town began with a saloon, blacksmith shop, confectionary store, the post office and depot and four homes. In 1887 an election was held which resulted in Mesquite being only the second community to incorporate outside of Dallas proper. As news got around of this new official town, people slowly started to move into the area and new business sprung up. The city was then developed as a residential and industrial centre with many of its residents being employed in Dallas. After 1950 the city started to rapidly expand and is now the twenty-fifth fastest growing city in the United States with a population now of over 150,000, a vast difference from 1950 when residents totaled 1,684. There is something like 65 churches in the area.
Tourist attractions include a (seasonal) weekend rodeo and an annual balloon festival. There are many parks and recreation activities as well as the Devil's Bowl Speedway. There is also first class medical care and hospitals in the area and new schools, housing subdivisions and industry are quickly usurping farmland for development.
- Pros:Sprawling and slowly becoming interesting
- Cons:No Public Transport

This city's famous tolerance for the unconventional just got a little less so. Here is a message from Seattle Parks and Recreation to all...
This city's famous tolerance for the unconventional just got a little less so.
Here is a message from Seattle Parks and Recreation to all you nature lovers: Cover up those rear ends or face a possible criminal-trespass prosecution.
The proposed rule will have a public hearing Jan. 8, and parks commissioners will make a recommendation to Parks Superintendent Tim Gallagher two weeks later.
That means you types who like to sneak a little skinny dipping at one of the city's beaches.

That means you naturists who like to get together in some secluded park location, and … barbecue naked! Maybe even play volleyball.
That means you 50 to 75 naked bicyclists who, on July 12, took part in yet another of those World Naked Bike Rides (three have been held in Seattle this year) to "draw attention to oil dependency." That event particularly drew the attention of parks officials.
The bicyclists gathered at Gas Works Park and stripped, painted themselves and took off for downtown Seattle, eventually ending up at Seattle Center.
They obviously weren't trying to hide anything. They even got a permit to use Gas Works, openly saying it was for a naked bike ride.
A Nov. 13 parks memo said, "Seattle appears to be unique in receiving nudist request for use of park facilities."
The memo said many other cities had "some regulation of nudity in public places."
But not tolerant Seattle.
As a matter of fact, the memo said nudity is "per se not illegal" under state law, and that "Seattle has no law regulating public nudity."
This all came to the attention of Gallagher, who's been superintendent less than a year, and the agency now has the proposed nudity rules. Gallagher was not available for comment.
Dewey Potter, parks spokeswoman, said police had received six complaints July 12 that the naked riders were offensive.
Police took down 23 riders' names.
Daniel Johnson, 34, organizer of the July 12 event, said none has been charged.
The proposed rule would not affect renting enclosed public swimming pools for private nudist events.
The rule also shouldn't affect the naked bicycle ride at the Fremont Fair, as participants don't gather at a park.
Johnson said he didn't understand Seattle Parks' new-found prudishness.
On the naked bike rides, "I've never seen a child react negatively," he said. "They just laugh or point or ask what's going on."
As for Seattle Parks' concerns about adults being offended, "People just whistle and honk their horns."
Potter said she expected a big crowd for the Jan. 8 hearing. There certainly will be plenty to discuss.
In its proposed new rule, it takes 53 words just to describe what "nudity" means.

I do software (mostly web) development, and I work alone, so I have to cope with a lot of sysadmin-type work, in order to setup different stacks of web/application/database/source-control servers, let alone my own dev environment.
Lately I've been obsessing over finding a way to virtualize these different concerns, to make my setup more manageable. Ideally I'd log into a thin development client (with my Xsession, emacs and ssh), have the servers run headless, and use them like in the real world. I'm aiming at getting it all under version control eventually too...
I also have a couple of concerns on top of that :
Performance, as I don't have a killer machine, having a fully virtualized OS for each server would probably slow it to a crawl.
And portability, i.e. be able to reuse those configs with as little tweaking as possible when I move them to a vps or other local boxes.
Considering this, I've basically narrowed it down to os-level virtualization.
OpenVZ seemed like the way to go, but then i found out about LXC and Linux V-Server, and now I'm confused.
So anyway, sorry for the long rant, but I wanted to ask you guys if you had any experience with these virtualization solutions, and maybe could give some insights on what could best suit my needs here ?
cheers !

I increased it originally to 1.35 volts as well as it appeared a bit more secure so I attempted 1.43ish. I as well increased the cpu-nb voltage to 1.4.The PC no longer posts I have make an effort for resetting the cmos both along with jumpers as well as by pulling the battery. The problem is, is there a way to solve this.

Reed asks his friend Miguel Antonio for advice about his problem with Morales. Antonio tells him about the time he and his boyfriend, Johnny Davis, were having similar troubles. To cure Daviss wandering eye, Antonio secretly arranged for their hot new superintendent, Stephan Bertolli, to let Davis work off some steam. On the roof of their building, rough-daddy Bertolli rips off Daviss clothes and feeds him his cock. Back in Davis' bedroom, he pounds into Daviss sweet young ass.

Johnny doesn't make movies anymore because he's a successful editor of famous New York-based magazine, but back when he was our first exclusive model starring in four of our earlier productions, reviewers called him "the most adorable bottom with a beautiful baby face and smile." Johnny was another Michael Lucas discovery.
Macho man Stephan came to America after he finished a three-year stint in the Israeli army, and became a personal trainer at a popular gym in Chelsea, NYC the very same gym Michael Lucas works out in! The resulting connection lead to Bertolli's appearance in two earlier productions, and a secured position as Michael Lucas' personal trainer for life.

KINO! Reboots Bringing German Talent to New York (June 12-19)
Including Theatrical Release NAN GOLDIN - I REMEMBER YOUR FACE
Stay tuned for my coverage!
We trust what we see with our eyes. They are our tool to navigate through the world. What happens when your eyes deceive you? In Jane Weinstock's The Moment, an international photojournalist Lee (Jennifer Jason Leigh) begins an affair with a writer she meets in a rehab center. John (Martin Henderson) has a rough past and after they break up, John mysteriously vanishes. This pushes Lee's fragile psyche over the edge. Her ex-husband and daughter (Alia Shawkat) admit her to get help. In sessions with her therapist (Marianne Jean-Baptiste) Lee begins to have flashes of what may or may not be memories of the the night before John went missing. Can she trust herself? The film jumps in time and the audience is left with a labyrinthine puzzle to piece together. Jennifer is haunting in her quiet reflection. The photography in the movie is stunning and personal.
I was able to sit down with Jane and discuss the movie. Here are the top 10 highlights from my interview.

The Grand Seduction does involve Brendan Gleeson trying to seduce Taylor Kitsch but just to get him to be the village doctor. Cinemit is excited to run a contest to win passes to a screening in Miami at the AMC Aventura.
RSVP here for a chance to win passes in Miami!
Closes Sunday at noon!
"A small fishing village must secure a lucrative business contract to escape a financial slump. Their odds are slim as a town doctor is needed to land the contract and they've been searching for years. After the mayor skips town, resident Murray French (Brendan Gleeson) takes it upon himself to find his village a doctor. When unlikely candidate and big city doctor Paul Lewis (Taylor Kitsch) lands in their lap, the townsfolk rally together to seduce him into staying beyond his one month trial. The ever creative Murray deploys varying ranges of subterfuge. He taps Paul's phone, fabricates a love interest, and forces the entire village to learn how to play cricket, Paul's favorite sport. As the month grows, so too does Paul's fondness for the village, clueless that everything he loves is an elaborate scheme. With the decision for the contract looming, Murray's grand seduction faces collapse from both guilt and revelation, potentially crushing both the dreams of the small village and the hope of a young doctor."

You probably know Clark Gregg as Agent Phil Coulson from Iron Man, The Avengers and NBC Marvel's Agents of Shield, but in Trust Me, he's Hollywood Agent, Howard Holloway. He stars, as well as writes and directs Trust Me, his second feature to direct, the first being Choke, the Chuck Palahniuk book-adapted film starring Sam Rockwell.
I saw this movie at last year's Tribeca Film Festival, and to be honest, I hated it. However, I decided to watch again for it's release and my reaction completely changed. Why?
Well, this is a story about a struggling Hollywood agent who lies, cheats, deceives and all without batting an eye. What's more is that it's completely acceptable in his profession. It was for this reason that I didn't like the movie the first time around, but after a re-watch, I saw more. I saw fantastic acting and a clever script.
TRUST ME, is now on demand as well as iTunes, Amazon, PS3, Xbox and other platforms. Released theatrically on June 6th in cities across the US.

I followed this recipe EXACT- cake is not aesthetically pleasing, cooked 15 minutes longer than suuggested time and top did not cook evenly it was browned outside and middle, with a goey everywhere else. I used a 9in round standard cake pan-as for flavor- it was OK the chips did not evenly distribute, they sort of sunk to the bottom.
My cake was a 4-star, but that is because of the changes I had to make. I am sure without them, it would be 5. I only had 2/3 cup of banana so added an extra 1/4 sour cream and an extra egg. The cake was baked in a 9.5inch round cake tin. It tastes absolutely amazing, very banana-ry (even with less than the suggested amount) and is very moist but too greasy. The grease is my fault I am sure. Next time I will make sure I have more bananas. Thanks for posting
This is one sensational little cake. It did take longer than 35 minutes for it to be done. I have been having some trouble with my oven temperature so I won't fault the recipe. It was still hot when I served it with a scoop of chocolate ice cream. My husband is planning cake for lunch tomorrow! I guess I won't be taking it into work. Thanks for a great recipe. It will be made again and again.
This is a great little snack cake! I didn't have semi-sweet chocolate chips, so I had to use Chocolate-caramel swirl chips-*yummy*. I baked the cake in a stoneware baking pan and I probably won't do that again as the cake didn't really seem to cook evenly. I will double the recipe next time and bake in a 9x13 cake pan. Thanks for sharing, we are enjoying this very much. Nick's Mom
Made this to bring to my in-laws - this makes a moist cake and is delicious!! Love the added touch of the sour cream (I used low-fat sour cream). I also added a little less chocolate chips. Easy to prepare and yummy!! Thanks megnbrycesmom!!

I can't say which came first: my love of food or my love of travel.
Growing up in a military family, we pulled up stakes every few years and relocated. I never felt a sense of loss when we migrated to a new place, just a sense of adventure. The change excited me, being able to see new places, meet new people and experience new things. Perhaps the most memorable place we lived was Ankara, the capital of Turkey, a city situated right in the middle of the country. My memories of the years we spent there are rich with the sights, sounds and smells of that beautiful place and I've always wanted to return. So, when the folks at Altair Travel & Cruises asked me to host a culinary cruise and we began discussing itineraries, the Greek Glory excursion aboard Oceania's brand-new ship, Riviera, was my hands-down favorite. The 10-day voyage went from Istanbul, Turkey, through a number of Greek islands, up to Croatia and then ended in magical Venice.
The Feast readers who joined me on this journey were in the capable hands of Maeve Day, Altair's corporate manager; she ensured that every detail was attended to, so all we had to do was enjoy the experience. Altair owner Pat Blassie and I planned some delicious extras for our group: the trip opened with a hands-on cooking class in the ship's Bon Appetit Culinary Center and closed with a multi-course wine dinner in La Reserve, a Wine Spectator venue that hosts wine tastings and private events. Opportunities like this are what set the Oceania and Altair experiences apart – I had never been on a cruise before and I wasn't sure what to expect. I can tell you, after this 10-day voyage, I'm already eagerly anticipating the next time I climb aboard an Oceania ship.
Here, you see the bow of the Riviera, an elegant mid-sized vessel that holds up to 1,250 passengers, with a staff of 800. The ship's art collection alone was stunning, and in this multi-part photo essay of the journey, you'll be given a tour of the ship, from the beautiful staterooms to the array of culinary options on board.
But first, let's explore Istanbul, where we spent two nights at the Eresin Crown Hotel before boarding the Riviera. Located in the heart of Istanbul's historic Sultanahmet section, the hotel was situated perfectly to allow us to explore one of the world's most intriguing cities.
Check back every Tuesday this month for another installment!

New London - City records indicate Police Chief Margaret Ackley has earned more than $100,000 in paid time off in less than two years, a number that exceeds the salary she was paid during her regular work hours. Documents contained in a Freedom of Information request received by The Day show that between Sept. 2, 2012, and Aug. 31, 2014, Ackley was paid for the equivalent of 1,814.25 hours for a total of $101,605. Those hours came from a mix of compensatory time, sick leave, injury time, vacation and other paid time off. Ackley was paid $36,678 in comp time alone, or the equivalent of 689 hours, records show.
The total number does not include a category marked "w/comp taxes - fire/police" for which she was paid an additional $18,806, records show without explanation.
During the same time period, Ackley's regular paid hours totaled 1,731.75 for a total of $92,187 in payments.
Documents released by the city coincided with the announcement Thursday that Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio had suspended Ackley until an investigation could be completed into a host of allegations that include claims she interfered with union negotiations, misrepresented financial information about the department and targeted union officials for discipline. There were no claims that her time off had anything to do with the decision to suspend her. While she is on paid suspension, Ackley is not using any of her remaining comp or vacation time.
Finizio declined to comment Friday.
Ackley's suspension was announced one day after Ackley, as part of a pending lawsuit against Finizio and the city, filed a request for an injunction against Finizio, claiming the mayor had essentially marginalized her and stripped her of police powers. Her attorney, Leon Rosenblatt, was not immediately available to comment Friday but has said in the past that Ackley had earned all of her time and was using compensatory time rather than losing it.
Controversy surrounding comp time in the city dates back to at least 2011 when Ackley, in her lawsuit, claims she announced her intention to retire but was requested by Finizio to stay on until Dec. 31, 2015. Part of the agreement to stay on, according to Ackley's suit, was a signed contract that would pay her a $110,725 salary with an agreement that she retain 2,000 hours of comp time.
The agreement, later rejected by the City Council, stated she would be paid as wages the financial equivalent of 1,196 of work hours at her regular rate of pay. Ackley claims that in February 2013 the city breached the contract by reneging on the promise to pay the remainder of her 1,196 hours of wages.
Finizio replaced comp time with flex time in August 2012 and ordered that all comp time be used before the end of that fiscal year.
Ackley was issued an extension to use her accumulated comp time by former Chief Administrator Jane Glover. The extension was granted because of the significant amount of time Ackley was out or working light duty after she was injured in an October 2012 incident in which she was hit on the head by a window that blew open during Superstorm Sandy. A memo from Glover indicates Ackley had 1,584.5 hours of comp time to be used before July 1, 2014. Ackley had used more than 300 hours of the time off, sick and comp time in the first three months of this year, records show. At the time she still had more than 1,000 hours of comp time left.
Finizio, in an April 24 memo released Thursday, granted Ackley until the end of the year to take the remainder of her time.
With Ackley now on paid leave, the issue of comp time may be moot, and it is unclear how much time she has left or plans to take off. But an email from Ackley to Finizio dated June 13, 2014, gives some indication. The email shows she planned to take off July 13-31, Aug. 1-15, Sept. 17-30 and Dec. 24-31.
"I will be using my comp time that is above the 1,012 hours that still needs to be paid out to me in my income," according to Ackley's email. "During any of the scheduled time off, I will be available should a situation warrant my being called in."
"Duly noted," Finizio responded.

The rural health explorers program at Meridian Community College hosted sixteen high school students this summer.
The teens participated in the program, designed to provide information about the health industry.
Coordinator Irven Skinner said he hopes that this experience will entice some of the students to go into medical careers and stay in Mississippi.
"The rural health program is designed to provide opportunities for students who are primarily in their junior year of high school an opportunity to explore the various medical career fields that may be open for them."
"I learned a lot about the health field, and it helped me really realize what I wanted to be. I had an idea, but it really set it in."
The students received five semester hours of college credit for participating in the program.

MACAU Winning a world championship would be the apex of achievement for most athletes. But for boxers, it has always meant something more. Most of them come from the dire depths of poverty. They spend their early lives as troubled youths or determined dreamers trying to escape the accident of their birth.
Juan Francisco Estrada came in as an underdog against Brian Viloria last April. The Hawaiian Punch was the first unified flyweight titlist in 47 years and had already beaten four of the best Mexican boxers in his weight range in succession.
But when the smoke cleared, it was El Gallo who was holding the WBO and WBA belts. During the post-fight press conference, he declared that I was a nobody before this fight. Now I am starting my real career.
I got a chance to speak briefly with the defending champion last Thursday after the final press conference inside the Venetian Ballroom. The 23 year old smiled when I told him I remembered what he said after he won the titles; about how nobody knew who he was when he arrived in Macau, and now all the cameras were pointed at him.
That is why I came back, Estrada said.
Winning a world title has changed my life in so many different ways, he added, The way people look at me, the way I get treated.
When asked about his preparations for his Filipino challenger Milan Melindo, Estrada replied ,I have gone through the same type of training but I added something special for Melindo, I will not say whether this will be a short or a long fight, you will see once we get on top of the ring.
Melindo also realizes how winning this bout can transform his life. During the final press con he said that When I first came here, I was just seated at the back, looking at the people seated in front and I told myself - I want to sit in front of everybody.
The 25 year old known as El Metodico goes into his first title challenge with the weight of expectations of an entire nation. He comes from the most popular gym and promotional company in the Philippines and this guarantees a lot of television and media mileage.
Juan Hernandez of Team Estrada said that they are aware of Melindos quality when he fought against Tommy Seran. Melindo is not the type of fighter you want to face but he is the mandatory challenger, Estrada has fought here before. He came in like a freight train.
They also have high hopes for the champion, Estrada will be one of the best pound for pound fighters in the next few years.
The Filipino community in Macau and the fight fans back home are counting on Melindo to take back the belts. Based on the comments made on my favorite social networking site, Melindo is expected to win by stoppage. The positive side of Melindos popularity is that he is used to fighting under pressure. But a world title fight is a totally different arena. He will have to transform what looks good on paper into a positive reality.
In his short speech last Wednesday night in a gathering of Filipinos here in Macau, Melindo said that Estrada is not an easy opponent. He is a world champion, he beat a good champion, Brian Viloria. It will be a hard fight but I will fight for all Filipinos.Hindi ako lumalaban para sa sarili ko, hindi lang para sa pamilya ko, pero para sa lahat na mga Filipino.
This fight promises to be a classic, not just between fighters with contrasting styles, but a battle between a champion who wants to hold on to something that means so much and a challenger that wants to have so much more.

There was a lot of buy buy buy the first day this was released. I bought a few hundred shares at that time. The stock has stayed in that price range of 18-19 bucks since with very little volume compared to day one on the market when 10 million plus shares were traded. Every day only 300k or so shares have been traded. No selling and a lot of new interest. I feel something good is about to happen
something is going to happen alright, you are going to lose money, sell now and buy back at a lot lower price

- First it subverts True Love's Kiss: Shrek and Fiona finally confess they love each other and kiss. Instead of it freeing Fiona from being an ogre when the sun goes down, it makes her an ogre permanently. Fiona, while not exactly disappointed, is still puzzled because "I'm supposed to be beautiful." Shrek just smiles and says, with full and honest sincerity, "But you are beautiful." (Now CUE I'M A BELIEVER!!!)
- Fridge Brilliance at work here. By human standards, Ogres are ugly...and Ogres likewise wouldn't think of a human as all that fetching. Fiona as an Ogress? Smoking hot by Shrek's standards! Subsequent movies also play up the fact that she's also much more at home in her own skin as an ogress than she ever was as a princess, and being true to one's self is definitely more attractive than pretense.
- Realizing that a human woman wouldn't be all that attractive to an ogre makes the fact that Shrek fell in love with Fiona as a human an especially sweet bit of Heartwarming Fridge Brilliance. Yet another nice, more subtle twist to the Beast and Beauty tale.
- A little something to drive this home; when my friends and I played a game in which we thought up better endings to fairy tales, no one could think up a more appropriate ending for Shrek. It was simply that perfect.
- And the point is driven home perfectly with the karaoke short when Shrek serenades with Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are"
- Fridge Brilliance at work here. By human standards, Ogres are ugly...and Ogres likewise wouldn't think of a human as all that fetching. Fiona as an Ogress? Smoking hot by Shrek's standards! Subsequent movies also play up the fact that she's also much more at home in her own skin as an ogress than she ever was as a princess, and being true to one's self is definitely more attractive than pretense.
- When Shrek and Donkey first meet, Shrek tries (in vain) to scare Donkey off. Soon he just flat out asks why the little mule won't git:
Shrek: Look! What am I?Donkey: Really tall?Shrek: No! I'm an ogre! You know, "Get your pitchforks!" Doesn't that bother you?Donkey: Nope.Shrek: (Surprised) Really?Donkey: Really really.It's the look on Shrek's face that counts. As we learn later on, Donkey is probably the first person to NOT treat Shrek like a menace to society.
Donkey: You know what...When we met, I didn't think you was just a big, stupid, ugly ogre.Shrek: I know.
- Also a bit later, when Shrek laments what he's better off alone because people judge him before getting to know him.
- After Shrek and Donkey have their misunderstanding, Donkey still goes back to Shrek's swamp and is willing to reconcile with him saying "That's what friends do! They forgive each other!" Then later after Shrek apologizes for his treatment of Donkey, he says "Hey that's what friends are for, right?" They shake hands and genuinely become best friends.
- The whole relationship between Shrek and Donkey is heartwarming. At first, Shrek sees Donkey as a nuisance and tries to shove him away. But Donkey liked Shrek and did everything he could to become his friend. His persistence is what cracks through Shrek's tough shell and allows him to accept love in his life.
- The scene when Shrek is practicing what he is going to say to Fiona when he admits his feelings to her. It's clear this is something he doesn't have much experience with. Shrek, someone who portrayed himself as the scarer, is now the scaree, tripping over his words. It's actually quite sweet.
- Without Donkey coming back and clearing things up, Shrek and Fiona probably would have never seen each other again.
- For the Karaoke Dance Party postscript, the moment when Shrek serenades Fiona with Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are" is deeply charming with the opening lines like "Don't go changing to try and please me/You've never let me down before..."
- While taking a drink at a river, Donkey sees the now heartbroken dragon crying and walks on over to console her.
- Shrek telling his own version of The Night Before Christmas at the end of Shrek the Halls.
