This week: From our St. Louis series! We talk with Roseann Weiss the Director of the Community & Public Arts Department at the St. Louis Regional Arts Commission.
Roseann Weiss is Director of the Community & Public Arts Department at the St. Louis Regional Arts Commission (RAC). In this position, she oversees the Community Arts Training (CAT) Institute – an innovative program centered on the belief that art can amplify the voices of communities, be a key factor in regenerating neighborhoods and be an agent for positive social change. Roseann also leads RAC's artists' support programs and creative community initiatives, which include identifying resources for new projects. She has over 25 years of experience in arts leadership in both nonprofit institutions and gallery settings.
The Community Arts Training (CAT) Institute, now considered a national model, provides professional level, comprehensive cross training for artists of all disciplines, social service providers, community activists, educators and policy makers in order to develop partnerships for successful arts-based programs that impact the community at large, and particularly under resourced communities. The program provides skills as well as explores creative techniques to assure success in collaboration and community work.
Roseann has initiated the expansion of the Institute's scope, including the design of a graduate program and an alternate, place-based model for community arts training. These initiatives were underwritten by the Kresge Foundation.
In March 2010, the Community Arts Training (CAT) Institute presented the first At the Crossroads: A Community Arts & Development Convening. This national conference in St. Louis, underwritten in part by the Nathan Cummings Foundation, attracted a cross section of leaders in arts-based community development. In April 2012, a second arts-based community development Convening, funded in part by the Kresge Foundation, attracted about 300 participants from as far away as Dublin and Singapore.
Before joining the RAC staff, she was Director of Education and Programming for the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis. In her ten year post at the Museum, she instituted programs such as New Art in the Neighborhood for teens, the critics and curators studio visit and lecture series, and a docent program designed to connect high school students with contemporary art, along with many community collaborations.
Roseann has curated contemporary art exhibitions in both commercial and non-profit galleries, served on arts panels, juries, committees and boards and has lectured about contemporary art and community. She is a founding member of The AIDS Foundation of St. Louis (now part of Doorways) and Critical Mass for the Visual Arts. In honor of her active involvement in the arts community, Roseann received a Visionary Award in 2009. The award is given to those who have demonstrated a unique vision to further the arts in new and innovative ways.

Episode 410: Michael Scoggins
July 9, 2013 · Print This Article
This week: The Amanda Browder Show rolls back into town! Amanda talks to artist Michael Scoggins.
Michael Scoggins was born in Washington D.C. in 1973. Growing up in Virginia and relocating later to Savannah, Georgia where he gained an MFA in painting from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2006. In the summer 2003 he attended the prestigious Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Skowhegan, Maine. He has shown extensively, gained international recognition and has gallery representation in Atlanta, Miami, New York, San Francisco, Vienna and Seoul. Michael currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.
This week: Our faithful correspondent Patricia Maloney sat down with former US Congressman Pat Williams and his son Griff Willams at Gallery 16 in San Francisco earlier this month to discuss the turbulence of the Culture Wars during the late '80s and early '90s. Patricia finally learned how legislating works in a conversation that ran the gamut from explaining Piss Christ to conservative parents and why Poker Jim Butte is the best place to catch some Shakespeare to how the NEA is vital to cultural production in rural communities and why now might be the moment to demand the return of federal grants for individual artists.
Rep. Pat Williams, who served Montana as its U.S. Congressman for nine terms, from 1979-1997, was Chairman of the House Committee that oversaw fiscal authorization for the NEA. He was one of the most vocal champions for Federal Arts Funding and has been credited for saving the NEA at a time when it was threatened with extermination by the religious Right. When the National Endowment for the Arts came under attack for subsidizing what some legislators considered sexually explicit art, Williams led the fight to save the agency. "As long as the federal government can support the arts without interfering with their content, government can indeed play a meaningful part in trying to encourage the arts,†Williams told The New York Times. "The genius of the NEA has been that the peer- review panels, made up of local folks, chose art and artists by using criteria based upon quality and excellence, never touching subject matter.â€
"He was a tireless and fearless supporter of the arts,†reports John Frohnmayer, who served as chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts during that tumultuous era. "He risked his political career in doing so.†Frohnmayer recalls that Williams "called out the congressional critics of the Endowment for their duplicity and moral posturing.â€
This week: After an inexcusably self-indulgent, alcohol fueled intro where Duncan, Richard, Dana and Emily and Nick from ACRE join us, we get on to an excellent interview. Part three of our St. Louis series recorded at the Contemporary Art Museum-St. Louis. This time we talk to Juan William Chavez and Kiersten Torrez about the Northside Workshop, bees, social practice, and record an advert for penicillin.
Northside Workshop (NSW)
Northside Workshop (NSW) is a non-profit art space dedicated to addressing cultural and community issues in North Saint Louis. Our programming focuses on incorporating socially engaged art and education with the goal of fostering social progress in North Saint Louis communities.
In 2010, a collaboration with the Old North Saint Louis Restoration Group, the Kranzberg Arts Foundation and artist/cultural activist Juan William Chavez began an intervention to regenerate a historic North Saint Louis brick building in danger of being destroyed. Two years in the making, this building is now transformed into a dynamic community art space.
Juan William Chavez
Founder and Director
Juan William Chavez (born in Lima, Peru) is an artist and cultural activist whose studio practice focuses on the potential of space by developing creative initiatives that address community and cultural issues. His projects include Urban Expression for the Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts, the Northside Workshop and the Pruitt-Igoe Bee Sanctuary. His awards include the Art Matters Grant, the Missouri Arts Award and the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts. In 2012, Chavez received a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship.
Kiersten Torrez
Director of Programming & Sustainability
Kiersten Torrez is an arts organizer focused on innovative sustainable practices. She has aided in developing community-based projects such as Beautification of Vacant Space, the Pruitt-Igoe Bee Sanctuary and Team Cookbook (creative workshops designed to community build through the sharing of recipes and stories in Old North Saint Louis). Torrez is currently planning a Year of Listening, a series of socially engaged events focused on co–generating programs to address the physical and social dimensions of the Old North Saint Louis neighborhood.

After making his way through the Gates, Somnium headed down the Main Road to the Hotel they were staying at. After finally reaching it, they nodded a hello to the Manager and his Cinncino and went through the main hall, a medium sized room with green and gold colouring plan, to emphasize Clay's mine that had made this city prosperous. He passed through the marble archway into the training field at the back of the Hotel and asked Emolga to head out onto the field. "So then Emolga," he said, bringing out his PokePad to check an moves it can now learn, "It seems you
be able to learn Quick Attack, so lets get down to training. Emolga, we need to raise your speed and attack, so we'll try this dummy over here.". we headed over to the Scarecrow/Dummy training area, a row of flour sacks on poles, waiting to be attacked. "Now then Emolga, I want you too aim for one of the dummies and ram into it as fast as you can!". Emolga then backed up and charged into the sack of flour, not doing much damage to it. "Come on, keep going!" Somnium yelled, as Emolga kept charging and charging, until eventually, they got they wanted, and Emolga was surrounded in a white glow. "Quickly! Charge the dummy!" he yelled, and Emolga, faster than it had been before, rammed into the dummy, causing a glorious explosion of flour to rain down. "Great job, Emolga! Now then Ralts, it's your turn".

Dunkin' Donuts' LTO strategy is among the most prolific in the restaurant industry. In 2013, the brand introduced 40 new products.
And while such a quick rollout pace has caused other QSRs to stumble and simplify, Dunkin' continues to reap the rewards of its launches — posting a nearly 8-percent comp increase throughout the past two years.
QSRweb.com had the chance to talk to John Costello, Dunkin's president of Global Marketing and Innovation, about how the chain prioritizes its rollouts, how it gets franchisees to buy in and how it keeps operations running smoothly.
QSRweb.com: What does Dunkin's 'LTO strategy' entail?
John Costello: At Dunkin' Donuts, we take a disciplined approach that balances consumer demand with operational execution as we develop and launch new products. LTOs are a key part of our strategy to provide a differentiated menu of choices to our guests and to set ourselves apart from other restaurant brands
QSRweb.com: How do you prioritize launches?
JC: Driving a product through the LTO process is a collaborative effort between our Culinary, Brand Marketing, and Operating Systems teams and also is guided by feedback from our franchisees, who are very involved in the testing of new products. We evaluate all of our products as they go through testing and then fit them into a plan that drives profitable top line sales for our franchisees and new, exciting menu items for our consumers on a regular basis.
QSRweb.com: What has been the franchisee reaction to such a quick pace of product introductions?
JC: Our franchisees understand the need to bring new and exciting menu items to guests and are very supportive of the LTO strategy and ongoing new product introductions. We have healthy dialogues about the need to balance consumer demand with operational execution. Involving our franchisees in the process from concept to launch is crucial to our success.
QSRweb.com: What is your training process for LTOs?
JC: Our Culinary, Brand Marketing, and Operating Systems teams work together to make sure that each product launched can be executed successfully in our restaurants. We then have Field Operations, Field Marketing, and Field Training teams that provide both hands-on and online training to crew members who make the products every day. Clear communication, driving consistency in how we build different products, and upfront management of complexity leads to a better experience for our crew members and the guests that they serve.
QSRweb.com: What is the key to not compromising speed of service?
JC: We have an excellent core menu, and look to LTOs to enhance our all-day menu, offer special seasonal flavors and more. In addition, we place great emphasis on evaluating new products and working closely with franchisees to ensure that the products we introduce are an asset, rather than a compromise to each restaurant's service and offerings.
QSRweb.com: Some chains have cited the complexity of too many rollouts as a reason for struggling sales. How does Dunkin' avoid this trap?
JC: We've seen those articles, but our experience has been just the opposite. We have found that unique, differentiated products continue to work very well for us, and are an important contributor to both our strong comp store sales performance and profitable top line sales for our franchisees.
We think our success with LTOs is driven by disciplined processes we have put in place over the last couple of years, and the strong partnerships between Culinary, Brand Marketing, Operations, and our Franchisees
QSRweb.com: Why is such a vast pipeline important for your specific brand and your specific fans?
JC: With coffee, baked goods and customization at the core of our heritage, we have found that menu items that are "familiar with a twist" tend to resonate well with our guests. We have given our guests the ability to try new things while also being able to count on a fast and friendly experience every day.
Our research also tells us that Millennial consumers are looking for more variety from QSR brands. We aim to provide familiarity, which can come from seasonality, favorite flavors, classic dishes and more. At the same time, we are looking to put Dunkin's stamp on a product. A great example of this is our Big N' Toasted breakfast sandwich, which started as a LTO and is now a permanent menu item. It was inspired by the old-fashioned diner meals our culinary team ate while growing up.
The pipeline provides the ability to keep up and ahead of short term culinary trends, let our guests try new things, and round out our overall menu on a regular basis.
QSRweb.com: Is this pace something that is sustainable?
JC: We're excited to offer guests a range of new products in 2014, including coffee, beverages and products to expand both the AM and PM dayparts. While I can't share specific sales figures, I can confidently tell you that our guests have responded very positively to our efforts to provide them with more all-day menu items and we look forward to continuing to bring new news to the market.

Backcountry – Gold 15
Snowshoes for Women up to 200lbs
Backcountry Snowshoes
The Gold 15, built for women and their gear weighing up to 200lbs, is uniquely designed for backcountry conditions. The tapered tail and steep nose design allows for a natural stride but with a surface area that supports you on or off the trail. We've increased the durometer, or stiffness of the polymer used and the result is an enhanced SPL binding system which in combination with the under-foot stabilizer provides even greater control and maneuverability. Like all the Crescent Moon snowshoes, the teardrop shape is a more athletic design than any other brand available and will provide you with a better snowshoe experience because of it.
- 4.2 lbs/pair Recommended for women snowshoers up to 200 lbs
- 9.5 x 29 in, exaggerated tear drop shape
- SPL binding system which provides a perfect fit

|Peter Horachek was appointed as interim head coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs on Jan. 7, 2015, a day after the team fired coach Randy Carlyle.
Horachek joined Toronto on July 11, 2014 as an assistant coach after serving as interim head coach of the Florida Panthers for the 2013-14 season.
|The Stoney Creek, Ontario native served as head coach of the American Hockey League's (AHL) San Antonio Rampage at the beginning of the 2013-14 season before his appointment with the Panthers. Prior to his stint in San Antonio, Horachek spent nine seasons as an assistant coach with the Nashville Predators (2003-2013), serving his last two years as associate head coach. While working for the Predators, he helped the club advance to the postseason on seven occasions.
Horachek has also served as head coach for the AHL's Milwaukee Admirals (2002-2003), ECHL's Trenton Titans (2001-2002) and the International Hockey League's (IHL) Orlando Solar Bears (1999-2001), where he led the Bears to the 2001 Turner Cup.
Horachek played 10 years of professional hockey as a forward in the AHL and IHL with the Rochester Americans (1979-80 to 1982-83), Flint Generals (1982-83 to 1984-85), Saginaw Generals (1985-86 to 1986-87) and Flint Spirits (1988-89). He also played three seasons of junior hockey with the Oshawa Generals from 1977-78 to 1979-80.

I don't mind carrying 2 spare batteries for day/night use. Hospital bills cost more. I think a ride in the ambulance I read once before costs like $250-300 just for the ride be it serious or not injury but just to pay for that express ride and the medical personals time. Ouch... that's something like $20/min ride should you arrive in 15mins to the hospital. Man makes 900 numbers look el cheap now.Originally Posted by 2manybikes
There is NO such thing as too bright on a bike. It'll wake the most distracted driver the heck up. Especially on epleptic (sp) strobe mode.
^ i fully agree! Drivers are so distracte dby their ipods, cellphones, coffee, music, fax machines etc etc etc while they drive. I think there is nothing wrong with a taillight that is brighter than the headlight. At some point i aim to build a tailight that uses a 150W h3 bulb and a focused reflector.

they were more concerned at what the heck i was
some cyclist kept trying to pull ahead of me because he was being blinded by the superflash
i now run a pair under my seat and a separate third on my basket
throw one on your handlebar far left side and one on your rear fender and the pair under your seat and cars won't even come near you
instead of taking another lane, they might take another street

Every time we read a post where someone promotes less lighting or dimmer tail lights (so the poor cagers don't get blinded), let's call them infidels.

If you live in Vermont, you know better than to talk about how much you hate the cold weather, especially if, like me, you chose to move here from somewhere further south.
But this winter has been a little colder, for a little longer, than I remember in recent years and it is messing with my head. I just can't seem to get warm.
This year, I found Christmas to be exceptional in terms of good will, good food, good company and moments I can genuinely describe as "merry." It was, all in all, a wonderful holiday season.
Boy, am I glad it's over.
I noticed something yesterday: Christmas is only seven weeks away.
I haven't even put my garden hose away yet, so you might expect my reaction to be one of surprise and dismay.
Not this year.
Instead, I shocked myself by thinking, "Well, then, it's about time I started planning for the holidays."
This is new and different. And a little disturbing.
Halloween: I'm just not that into it.
Oh, I like the subversive part where kids openly demand — and receive — candy from random adults. I'm just not crazy about costumes.
It may stem partly second grade, when I missed Halloween altogether. On Oct. 30 I came down with chicken pox — all the rage in those days. I tried to convince my mother that I could still trick-or-treat since my costume would hide my condition. No dice.
So we got another goat.
Kind of an odd choice for a family that has found one goat to be just slightly over their ideal Goats Per Household quotient.
But you can't have just one goat, because goats are herd animals and want to be around their own kind. Years ago we took in three goats out of pity but now we're down to one, and that's a problem. Sure, Lucy's been fine on her own this summer, but with winter coming we couldn't bear the thought of her alone in the goat barn on long, cold, dark nights, with no one to play cribbage with.
The Addison Independenthas won awards for its local news coverage, striking photos and special sections.
Readers who want the most compelling combination of information and entertainment in this paper know where the real action lies: in the police logs. (Admit it: You go there.)
Last weekend my husband Mark and I spent two nights over in Warren, thus honoring our longstanding custom of getting away alone together once every 19 years. While there, we went tubing down the Mad River (easy), tried paddle boarding on Blueberry Lake (a bit more work) and, best of all, played disc golf at Sugarbush (nearly impossible).
One recent morning, my husband, Mark, and I sat on the back porch with our feet up, drinking our coffee and enjoying some much-needed sunshine. A typical late spring scene, really.
Except, perhaps, for the goat.
Lucy, our one remaining goat, had trip-trapped onto the porch like she often does, to stare at us with her lazy yellow eyes. And smirk. She's always smirking.
Last Saturday night, during a period of heat-induced delirium, I briefly reconsidered my longstanding opposition to air conditioning.
My inner stoic Vermonter says A/C this far north is a sign of weakness and a waste of money. True, I am not stoic by nature or a Vermonter by birth, but I still believe artificial cooling is for sissies. Just Saturday afternoon, in fact, I had been bragging to a friend that our bedroom is always cool enough for sleeping, even during heat waves.
I swear I never heard the minor piano chords threatening in the background.

The Dec. 16 story asked: "Could shooting be a gun-control tipping point?" Among the experts and the rest of us, opinions clearly are divided on whether more or fewer guns result in greater public benefit.
As we all know, and will admit to under rare spells of impartiality, opinions are worthless until substantiated or invalidated by unquestionable evidence. The only source for an objective answer, should we truly care to know exactly which will have the greater chance of saving people from bullets, is statistics. And in this case, their declaration is in harmony with common sense. Simply stated they declare: the more guns, the more people are killed with guns; the fewer guns, the fewer people are killed with guns. It's verifiable, incontrovertible and constant all over the world.
Ergo, if we are truly interested in giving everyone a better chance at life without pre-emptive termination by a speedy slug of lead, then I don't see why anyone is still confused.

Re: Horizontal line problem epson 1400
is that a brand new cartridges? the horizontal lines may be related to the faulty cart or the blockage nozzles. try to use different carts then use inkrepublic.com's i-remove cleaning kit to clean print heads.

Does anyone have any other ideas.

Baltimore County emergency preparedness officals remain concerned about the potential for inland flooding and fallen trees, though rainfall totals are expected to be less than feared and Hurricane Joaquin is forecast to stay off the Atlantic Coast.
Emergency managers have received regular briefings from the National Weather Service and the Maryland Emergency Management Agency since Wednesday. The current forecast calls for 2 to 3 inches of rain today and tonight, with the likelihood of inland flooding of streams, rivers and roads and some minor shore flooding in southeastern Baltimore County. Winds with gusts of up to 30 mph are forecast and could bring down trees and power lines.
The latest models show Hurricane Joaquin staying far enough off the coast that little to no rain and wind should affect Central Maryland.
Emergency managers continue to monitor weather conditions.
Call 911 to report flooded roads, fallen trees or other weather emergencies.

Newspaper article The Christian Science Monitor
Sudan and South Sudan Strike 'Partial Peace' Deal
Article excerpt
Sudan and South Sudan today signed a partial peace deal that will ease tensions between the former civil war foes and, most significantly, restart oil exports whose suspension has crippled both countries economies.
The agreement, inked by Salva Kiir, South Sudans president, and Omar Al Bashir, his counterpart from Sudan, came after the scheduled day of talks extended into four days of talks.
Though analysts say the deal still needs work, Thabo Mbeki, South Africas former president and lead negotiator on the African Union- sponsored discussions, praised the move.
"We are convinced that what has happened, which culminated in signing of the agreements, constitutes a giant step forward for both countries," he said during the signing at a five-star hotel in Addis Ababa, Ethiopias capital.
But significant issues remain; not least of which is the status of disputed border areas between the two countries, prompting analysts to term the deal a partial peace.
Perhaps most importantly, Mr. Kiir agreed to restart oil supplies from oilfields in South Sudan, that Sudan then pumps through its territory to export terminals on the Red Sea.
South Sudan shut off the taps in January, claiming that the fees that Mr. Bashirs government in Khartoum was charging were too high.
Both countries rely heavily on crude export sales for their state budgets in South Sudan, oil accounts for 98 percent of government revenues and the shutdown caused huge economic difficulties for both nations.
The oil will start flowing again by the end of the year, I believe, says Pagun Amum, chief negotiator for South Sudan.
Also agreed was the creation of a demilitarized buffer zone along the disputed border between South Sudan and Sudan, which fought Africas longest civil war as a united nation.
More than 2 million people died in on-again off-again fighting that ran between 1955 and 2005 and ended with a peace agreement in 2005 that led to South Sudan seceding into a new independent nation in 2011.
Following today's agreement, troops from both armies would now pull back from positions along the border, where fighting in April raised fears that the two countries were heading back to all-out war. …

Genre: Rock
Under a dim lit sky shadows marched like statues.
Darkness was coursing throughout their veins, and light shone from their eyes.
It was all they had, but it was not enough to light their way:
A silent march into awaiting graves.
Turned my back against the night, toward the hope that there's a place where truth abides.
For here we're left to wonder why we douse the flame and there is nothing left inside.
We have become as the ravens. mighty in number and blotting out the sun.
Here my will could never contend: is this not cold and bent?
Where does my volition fit in?
Too weak to wade amongst the dead, to tired to stand amongst the rest
So face the sky and tell me how you gauge living in vain?
Show me the crooked and bent, the shape of contempt.
We've buried the flame.
But i contend to dig it up again.

2000 Chevrolet Malibu Sedan 4dr Sedan
I purchased my 2000 Malibu in 2003 with 60k miles.
The owner was a senior citizen who had made lots of road trips and meticulously kept up with maintenance and had all receipts to prove it.
I've now had my Malibu for 9 years and love it.
I've had to do most of the expected routine maintenance - brakes, rotors, tires, filters.
There's been a few pieces of non routine maintenance but overall this has been a great vehicle for me.
I'm now at 162k and expect to take it to 200k+.
When I'm done, I hope I can find a similar car - malibu from same era with meticulous records and low miles and likely non aggressive driving previous owner.
Gas mileage ranges from 25-30/gallon. The completely removable back seat. The stock audio system has alot of bass. Power Steering and brake fluid fine after 13 years (mechanics see no need to flush, fluid color is like new). I can change the oil without even jacking the car up. Its not the easiest thing but its quite doable. The oil pan plug is a funny angle but reachable. Radiator is also easy to change. Alternator, starter, fuel filter, oil, coolant, air filter, radio, ignition, seat belts (got a chunk of wood in it), tie rods, windsheild wipers, etc are all DIY repairs for a semi handy owner. Enough leg room for a 6'4 dude.
Could have more room for passengers in back. The stock CD player wouldn't play burned CDs and I replaced. A/C controllers are notorious for dying slowly, and settings 1-2 die within a few days of installing a new one. Transmission fluid is difficult to replace or even see how full it is. You must remove an engine mount to replace the serpentine belt. The rear spark plugs are very hard to get to and more than a non mechanic owner can usually handle. The rear spark plugs basically disintegrated when I finally got them off and had to grab piece by piece. Thankfully this is a ever 50-100k mile change. Radiator hose fell off at one point.
2000 Chevrolet Malibu Sedan LS 4dr Sedan
I bought this car brand new in 2000, and it has been a good car.
As with all cars there's maintenance and repairs that need to be done, especially after driving it over 100K miles.
It is still running good after 111K and I am confident it will go to 200K.
The biggest issue with this car was the anti-theft system.
At about 75K it became so sensitive that when I turned the key to start it, the system would turn on, and I would have to wait 5 minutes before it would start.
I had the ignition switch replaced and never had the issue again.
Also, the cruise control does not stay locked in, but don't use anyway so it's not a problem for me.
Good power and excellent acceleration onto freeways.
2000 Chevrolet Malibu Sedan LS 4dr Sedan
I read most of the reviews here and it almost made me back out of my decision to by a 2000 Malibu LS.
But the car was like new, even with 200K miles, and it was very inexpensive compared to the other junk I'd looked at for the same price or more.
The prior owner had quite of few of his repair papers and like many of these cars it had the intake manifold redone, a new fuel pump, new water pump, plugs, wires, and one injector, all at around 100K. Also had brakes done several times but no more often them most other cars.
I like it's looks better then the equivalent imported vehicles. It seems to be holding up as well as a friend of mines imports too. The engine is wonderful, very spunky for 3.1 L. Steering is nicely weighted. It rides and handles great, the radio/cd works great, very few of the interior parts have any problems, one of the lock switches has the tip broken off but it still works.
With a 12 year old car there's not much point in suggesting improvements but the main things GM should have done a better job on were the abysmal design of the power window lifts - they are almost designed to fail, there is one plastic part in them that is just way over-stressed. If GM had simply made it out of metal with nylon inserts all the failed window lifts would have been avoided. They should have come up with a better intake manifold gasket too. That's the kind of thing that should last for the lift of the engine, not be a maintenance item.
2000 Chevrolet Malibu Sedan 4dr Sedan
had my Bu for about 2 years, only problem was external head gasket leak. just kept antifreeze in and drove it like that for over a year. had to send to junk yard due to my stupidity with jacking it up in the rear in the wrong spot and bent something that cause the back end to come around when you hit the breaks. didnt want to take the time to fix as I got another car I was fixing. great car tho loved everything about it!
control around corners at high speeds and reliability
head gasket!
2000 Chevrolet Malibu Sedan LS 4dr Sedan
I have had a few issues here and there, got it for free, so all the repairs are good up-to 2,000 dollars. Small leak in A/C lines, repaired and filled for $75 at a Ford lot. I like the car, feels good, great gas mileage, and other than a/c and brakes no problems.

Academy Award-nominated short films will surprise and move you
Animated and live-action movies bring unfamiliar worlds to life in vivid detail
"Oscar Nominated Short Films 2013"
Rating: Not rated
When: Opens Friday
Where: Landmark Ken
Running time: 1 hour, 28 minutes (animated); 1 hour, 53 minutes (live action)
Want to get an edge in your office Oscar pool? Then take advantage of Ken Cinema's weeklong run of the Academy Award-nominated live-action and animated short films. You'll not only be an informed voter with the competitive advantage, but you'll get the chance to sample a delightful set of films spanning genres, styles and the globe in just one outing.
Part of the fun of such a cinematic menu is the element of surprise. With the glaring exception of an entry from "The Simpsons," each work is an unfamiliar world within itself. For the live-action category, the high points come with the films that open up our understanding of an unfamiliar culture or life experience through vivid storytelling.
"Asad," from directors Bryan Buckley and Mino Jarjoura, does this most powerfully in subject matter and its closing statement. In a poor village on the Somali coast, a boy is pressured to choose between the lucrative but dangerous pirate trade or the traditional life of a fisherman. Seen through Asad's eyes, the epidemic of piracy in the region is filled in with sympathetic detail, which becomes all too real as the end credits reveal a cast made up almost entirely of Somali refugees and asylum seekers.
Though its narrative twist is identifiable from the outset, "Henry" brings us into the fading and frightened mind of an elderly man with advancing dementia. Weaving in memories of the man's marriage and wartime past, French director Yan England tells a complete story that is both sentimental and chilling. Judging by the academy's older demographic and its demonstrated love for Michael Haneke's "Amour," "Henry" could have a shot at a statue.
In the Belgian science fiction drama "Death of a Shadow," directors Tom Van Avermaet and Ellen De Waele invent a world steeped in mystery, death, unrequited love and time travel powered by gears and widgets right out of the industrial age. The most ambitious of the bunch in complexity of story and production design, the film overreaches a bit, but it's also the most memorable.
It's the American entry, "Curfew," that lands with the loudest thud. Blatantly commercial in its sensibilities, Shawn Christensen's slacker-guy-meets-precocious-kid tale feels thoroughly inauthentic, with pandering performances from Christensen, in the lead role, and young Fatima Ptacek, and a saccharine story that might work for the next Kate Hudson bomb but has no business here.
The animated shorts don't have a whole lot to say, literally. All five entries lack dialogue, but they're plenty loaded up with heart. As much as I'd enjoy hearing an acceptance speech written by James L. Brooks, Matt Groening and the rest of the "Simpsons" team, "Maggie Simpson in 'The Longest Daycare' " is about as slyly sweet as an above-average episode of the long-running program — and it looks exactly like one, too. When compared with the other artful entries, it fizzles like a commercial break.
With the black-and-white romantic charmer "Paperman," director John Kahrs and the folks at Disney show that classic animation with a heart of gold and a dose of magic is still more than welcome in our ever more cynical world — even if it has to be set in the 1950s to do it. This one's a favorite to win.
The two Claymation entries experiment with some playful visual tricks. Writer/director PES' short conceptual piece, "Fresh Guacamole," transforms unexpected everyday objects into ingredients that make up the most unusual bowl of chip dip you've ever seen. You may not want to eat it, but you'll want to watch it again to see how he did it.

Mouse died after about 35 days
This review is from: SIIG JK-WR0712-S1 Black 87 Normal Keys 12 Function Keys USB RF Wireless Mini Multimedia Keyboard & Mouse
Pros: As I wrote in my earlier review, the size is nice.
Cons: I bought this in May and just yesterday, right after the 30 day RMA period ended for New Egg, the mouse stopped working. I tried different batteries, to no avail. I have not treated it roughly, as this thing sat on a desk in an office and did not travel anywhere. I am surprised it broke so quickly. Very cheaply made.

nice layout poor range
This review is from: SIIG JK-WR0712-S1 Black 87 Normal Keys 12 Function Keys USB RF Wireless Mini Multimedia Keyboard & Mouse
Pros: nice size and design. great if your looking to take it with you or have limited space
Cons: the range is definitely not 30Ft. It works good in the 6ft range but once its moved past the reception gets pretty spotty.
Other Thoughts: The range could be partly due to my setup as I have alot of signals flying around my living room. But still the range is not nearly as good as some of the other wireless device I have used that should have the same 30ft range.

Size is right, feedback is odd.
This review is from: SIIG JK-WR0712-S1 Black 87 Normal Keys 12 Function Keys USB RF Wireless Mini Multimedia Keyboard & Mouse
Pros: I purchased this for a small desk where there was no room for a full sized keyboard. The small size is nice, the size of the keys is fine. I am very happy that the mouse and keyboard both use the same USB receiver. This receiver is slightly larger than the USB slot it fits into, which is very nice.
Cons: The amount of feedback when tapping the keys is weird. It's like each of the keys is sitting on a piece of cotton. It doesn't seem to affect my speed or accuracy touch typing, but it just feels odd. Just a personal decision. I prefer the feeling of my HP laptop keyboard or my Microsoft ARC keyboard. But it is much better than the Logitech keyboard that I am replacing, so I'll go with it.
Other Thoughts: Size is right, feeling is odd.

Good news: Despite failing to reach the funding goal of $750,000 from its Kickstarter campaign, Bill Joyce's "Golem" videogame will be completed at his Moonbot Studios in Shreveport, Louisiana, thanks to alternate financing and the support of Guillermo Del Toro, who will produce an animated "Golem" feature spinoff directed by Joyce.
The ancient Jewish folktale about a clay giant and guardian of Prague in search of independence and a soul is the perfect project for Joyce and Moonbot -- the original monster template: fighting the Borgias and their war machine built by a young Leonardo Da Vinci.
"There's such a rich mythic world of Renaissance Prague that we're tapping into," Joyce relates. "It's fairy tale city and they treat their fairy tales as historical fact. And they treat The Golem as something that really happened. I mean, there really was a Rabbi Lev and there is a grave where he's buried and The Golem's ashes are supposed to be in the attic of the new/old synagogue built in the 1400s.
"But their history is so [great] and all these crazy myths that are plied into the history, and we're taking these myths and treating them the way they did. There are only two cities that I've been to that seem made up, Paris and Prague. They just seem too whimsical than everyday life and have something more going on."
Joyce said the Kickstarter campaign created great awareness and investors came calling to provide funding beyond the $750,000. He first approached Del Toro about collaborating during the making of "Rise of the Guardians" (a bitter commercial disappointment that merely reaffirms the need for a new business model that he is building at Moonbot).
"And now Guillermo's committed to this. I told him we wanted to do a game first because it's a great way to test out design and mood and even elements of plot. And so now we're building the story and plot mechanics and the game mechanics, which are intertwined from the get-go. There are choices the gamers make as Golem that will alter how the story plays out and, to ultimately win the game, they will have to find the right series of choices. It will always come to a narrative conclusion, but it still will be a competitive game and won't be repetitive."
But at the core is an emotional connection with Golem, as Joyce strives to tell new kinds of stories. "The thing that got me mesmerized about the way games are going were 'Journey' and 'Limbo,' which hint at themes not fully explored and are both quiet and meditative and occasionally terrifying. So we want to do something that is in between a big adventure game and also quieter and more exploratory.
Joyce is currently outlining the "Golem" movie, which he will co-write with Del Toro, who has a keen sense for narrative clarity. And Moonbot is getting tremendous experience animating games, shorts, apps, and, eventually, the feature. Joyce believes it's the model of the future.
Speaking of which, Moonbot will follow-up its Oscar-winning "Morris Lessmore" with another short this year and has three others in the works. In addition, they have several other games, including a holiday release with Sony called "Diggs Nightcrawler," combining Mother Goose and film noir.
But "Golem" is the potential game-changer: "We want to give the game and the film and the book the sense that this was the intellectual capital of the world; this was the technological, cutting edge city."

Neil Gaiman's speaking fee attacked by Star Tribune
Neil Gaiman: Worth $45,000?
Sandman author Neil Gaiman is under attack by the Minneapolis Star Tribune for charging $45,000 for a recent speaking engagement at a Stillwater public library.
Under the headline, "One author: $45,000 for an afternoon," the newspaper questioned the hefty fee for the "fantasy and science fiction writer," claiming that "some tongues in the library community are wagging in astonishment."
Wait, librarians are wagging their tongues? This must be a scandal!
This isn't the first time the Star Tribune has questioned the use of Legacy Fund money. Indeed, it has become almost as much of a crusade for the daily as their Epic Series on Drunk Driving (Spoiler: they're against it). The Strib has been especially critical of money given to its competitor, Minnesota Public Radio.
Sure, $45,000 sounds like a lot of money for an author, even one as acclaimed as Gaiman. But that's pennies compared to the $791 million Vikings stadium the Star Tribune wants taxpayers to help build.
And apparently, not all the librarians are wagging their tongues. One who was in the audience that day has Gaiman's back:
Pat the Librarian commented:
I deeply apologize to Mr. Gaiman that he should be put in the position to have to defend his fee. The afternoon was magical. He stayed far longer than planned and spoke privately with a large number of people. This funding is meant to preserve our cultural and artistic heritage. Indeed it is experiences like these that create the next generation of artists and writers. No price can be put on such an experience. I have been to many a book talk that had an audience of 20 people and authors received $2,000...the per capita cost is easily comparable when you consider the large and very grateful audience.
Thank you, Mr. Gaiman, for an inspiring afternoon. It was indeed well worth it. And, again, I apologize that you have been put in this position.

Britt Hayes is a writer, movie lover, and sensible sweater enthusiast living in Austin, Texas. She watches too much TV and never eats her vegetables. Her mom is worried about her.
One of the people we haven't seen a whole lot of in the more recent trailers for 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1' is Peeta. Yes, we saw him in those earlier "message from Capitol" teasers, all in white with President Snow and Joanna, but the trailers for the latest installment of Katniss' harrowing journey have been mostly absent of her bread-making friend. Until now! And it looks like Gale is not too pleased about it.
Well that certainly escalated quickly: over the last couple of weeks Robert Downey Jr. has played rather coy about what's next for Tony Stark and Iron Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but now it looks like we know the answer, as he's just been recruited for 'Captain America 3,' in a storyline that's said to bring Marvel's Civil War arc to the big screen -- which is a rather huge development.
Well it's about time! Marvel has finally revealed an officially licensed dancing baby Groot toy from 'Guardians of the Galaxy,' and this little dude will be available to take home just in time for you to put him under the tree for that special someone for Christmas. Or if you're anything like us, you're already making plans to use him instead of a Christmas tree this year. Festive!
Richard Kiel, the man most famous for playing James Bond villain Jaws in both 'The Spy Who Loved Me' and 'Moonraker,' passed away earlier this afternoon in Fresno, California at the age of 74. He was just a few days away from celebrating his 75th birthday.
'22 Jump Street' gave us one of the most hilarious end credits sequences in comedy history, and one that seemed to signal to audiences that Phil Lord and Chris Miller were done with making 'Jump Street' movies, as it delivered concepts for about 20 fake sequels. But not so fast: '22 Jump Street' writer Rodney Rothman has been hired to return for '23 Jump Street,' so it seems like Ice Cube's threat to send our favorite undercover cops to medical school might not be out of the question.
Looks like Warner Bros. is hoping they can replicate the success Columbia had with '21 Jump Street' with a small-to-big screen reboot of their own: the studio has hired Dax Shepard to write, direct, and star in a film version of the classic cop series 'CHiPS,' and he's bringing Michael Pena along for the ride.
While it's not a 'Frozen' sequel, fans of Disney's newest animated classic will be delighted to know that you'll definitely be seeing Anna and Elsa in yet another charming adventure -- the studio is planning an all-new animated short film titled 'Frozen Fever,' and you'll be seeing it sooner rather than later.
The time has come yet again to welcome some new additions to Netflix Instant, which means even more options to add to queue -- and even more hours of endless browsing and indecision, if you're anything like most of us. There's tons of great stuff coming to the service this month, so read on for our guide to the newest releases hitting Netflix Instant this September.
There's always plenty of Stephen King adaptations in the works, but here's one based on a story you might not be as familiar with -- and as a bonus, King himself wrote the screenplay. 'A Good Marriage' appears to examine a marriage through King's grisly lens, and the suburbs are looking pretty deadly.
Don Pardo, the man who introduced the 'SNL' lineup every week since 1975, has sadly passed away at the age of 96. Pardo also lent his voice to radio, sports, game shows, and commercials over the course of his incredibly long-running career, but we'll always remember him best for that wonderful phrase: "It's 'Saturday Night Live!'"
Although 'Guardians of the Galaxy' has already been in theaters for several days now, that's not keeping Marvel from releasing some fun 'Guardians' goodies -- like this latest featurette, in which Chris Pratt takes a very MTV's 'Cribs'-style approach to showing us around Peter Quill/Star-Lord's spaceship, the Milano.
It's been about four years since Guillermo del Toro and Disney announced that they were developing a film based on 'The Haunted Mansion,' the classic Disney theme park attraction, but today the director has offered an update on the long-gestating project -- and the good news is that it's definitely still happening.

Former Blackburn back-up Bunn was born in London but qualifies through his dad and grandmother.
The 28-year-old said: "It is one of my aims now to try and break into the Republic squad.
"And if the opportunity arose I would definitely be interested.
"I think every player wants to play international football and play at the highest level and I am no different."

I made this fun treat tag as a guest post on Modern Mom. Sometimes it seems like we are always just handing out the candy and I wanted to do something to make it a fun for some special friends.
So here's what you'll need:fun Halloween paper clothes pins ribbon hot glue gun or other adhesive small jewlery sacks candy corns or other small treats black ink a print out of the Halloween sayings
Start out by hot gluing your ribbon to your clothes pins. I added these spooky spider embellishments. You could just tie another fun ribbon on the clothes pin if you can't find a fun embellishment like these.
Next cut your paper. For the background paper I cut it to 3×6. I cut the word paper to fit so just make it to your liking.
After everything is cut, ink your edges. The messier the better on this. I think it gives it a fun spooky look.
Adhere your word tag to the background.
Fill your little treat bags.
Stick your cute little clothes pin on the card to hold the treat bag in place.
And you're done.
Now you have a fun little treat to hand out to your friends and neighbors. I think I'm going to send my daughter with these to her preschool class.
If you enjoyed this project, make sure you stop by and see some other fun Halloween ideas we've cooked up.

Edmond Public Schools to begin drug testing in high schools in January
Edmond Public Schools will soon begin random drug tests for high school students who participate in extracurricular activities.
The district chose this group of students, instead of a broader approach, for two main reasons, said Jason Brown, the district's executive director of secondary education.
For one, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled schools can drug-test students who participate in extracurricular activities. Secondly, Brown said, these students are leaders and are held to a higher standard.
"It's a privilege, but with that privilege comes a heightened responsibility," Brown said. "Obviously, they're going to be looked at as role models and school leaders, and so with that heightened responsibility, we feel they have that responsibility to remain drug- and alcohol-free."
Edmond Public Schools, the fourth-largest public school district in Oklahoma, has about 22,500 students. Since 2005, the district has suspended 660 students in its middle schools and high schools because of drugs.
The district anticipates spending about $35,000 on testing, which is less than 1 percent of the district's $4 million budget. The test will be performed with a device slipped under the student's tongue.
Edmond's school board and administrators have been working on the policy for the past three years. It was finalized in October and will take effect Jan. 7, the first day of the semester.
Any student who wants to participate in an extracurricular activity must provide a drug testing consent form, signed by the student, a guardian and the coach or sponsor of the activity. If the student refuses to sign the form, he or she cannot participate in the activity.
A company contracting with the school will select students at random using their student ID numbers, Brown said. Under the new policy, if coaches suspect athletes of using performance-enhancing drugs, they can request those athletes undergo drug testing, Brown said.
Addressing drug use
Edmond parent Kelly Batt became interested in seeing a drug testing policy at the district after hearing stories from her daughters, Lauren and Andrea.
When the girls started high school at Edmond North, they would come home and tell Batt about students who were drunk or high at school.
Batt helped organize a forum earlier this year where she and others spoke about drug use among students in the district.
Batt said she supported the policy but hopes the district will take a comprehensive approach to combating drugs in schools.
"It might make a difference to one student if they're caught or involved, but not for the general student body," Batt said.
The issue is personal to Batt. A group of hunters found Batt's brother, Stephen, dead in an Arizona desert in 1989. Batt said her brother was killed by people associated with his drug problem.
Batt's brother started using drugs as a teen and continued to decline until his death.
"You start out as a child or a young adult or teenager and think, 'It's not going to affect me,'" Batt said. "You just have no idea what the power of drugs is."
Policies vary
Edmond Schools isn't the first in the Oklahoma City metro-area to start random drug testing, but policies vary from district to district.
Oklahoma City Public Schools does not have a drug-testing program.
The Mid-Del School District started its random drug testing program in 2007. The district received a three-year federal grant to not only implement the program but also study its effectiveness, spokeswoman Stacey Boyer said.
Since the beginning of the program, the district has tested 2,704 students at its three high schools. Of those tested, 45 students tested positive, Boyer said.
Putnam City Schools doesn't drug test students, but administrators have discussed the possibility, district spokesman Steve Lindley said. Those internal discussions could become more finite in the coming months.
"Will there be a policy of that? Time will tell," Lindley said. "We view it as something that would help protect the health and safety of students."
Heritage Hall administrators have been discussing a policy but there isn't a timeline for when a policy might be rolled out, said Will Webb, assistant head of school for external affairs.

Manning Exits Practice With a Stomach Bug
After 128 straight starts and a thousand or so straight practices, Eli Manning left a Giants football field early Wednesday with a stomach bug. And no one really cared. "He'll be all right," wide receiver Hakeem Nicks said. "It's not going to affect him," safety Antrel Rolle said. Giants coach Tom Coughlin added that there is no worry about Manning's health for Sunday's NFC title tilt in San Francisco, and said he expects "it is just a 24-hour deal." Manning did stay at Giants headquarters to attend meetings after practice.

Oklahoma football: Receiver Kenny Stills saw Landry Jones throwing to him on the jumbotron
AMES, Iowa — Kenny Stills poked his head out of the media crowd.
He was looking to go say hi to his mom after his big performance — six receptions for 92 yards and two big touchdowns — in Oklahoma's 35-20 win over Iowa State.
Stills had read that people said he couldn't make big catches. He responded by focusing on it this year and making one for 21 yards and the other for 31 yards.
Can you walk us through the second touchdown?
I just came off the ball hard. The guy was pretty far off of me. Just got up on his toes. I could see up in the big screen, Landry had turned my way. So I turned around, he put the ball on my back shoulder, and I just went up and got it.
Was there interference on your first touchdown catch?
He thought I did. I barely touched him. I'm not too big of a guy. You'll know if I push somebody. Just kind of gave him a little chicken wing. That's what we're taught to do.
Landry threw to nine receivers. Was that part of the game plan?
We knew coming into the game we were going to rotate a little bit more. It was fun for me to see the younger guys play. I know it was Durron's birthday. I know he was excited to get out there and play and make a few catches.
What about Justin Brown's performance? (Brown had seven receptions for 107 yards and one touchdown)
Veteran guy just doing his job. Always doing his job. I know he's happy to have a huge game like this. He's come along way from Penn State and the things he went through there.
How about Brennan Clay?
I'm really proud of Brennan, just the way he's been working in the weight room, at practice, off the field, just taking care of business. He's really been waiting for his time to shine and he did today.

Portland-based United Pipe & Supply, a regional distributor of irrigation and other equipment for commercial and residential use, is closing down under a liquidation process aimed at selling its assets to new owners.
The company's branch office in Vancouver is expected to be sold to a new owner, said Conrad Myers, the court-appointed receiver who's handling the liquidation process.
Myers, of Myers & Co., a Portland-based management and financial consulting firm, said Wednesday he believes most of the employees at United Pipe & Supply's Vancouver branch — which focuses on irrigation, farming and landscaping supplies — will keep their jobs, "although we don't have control over that."
Reached by phone Wednesday, an employee of the Vancouver branch who didn't want to be named said the office employs three people and a seasonal truck driver. The employee said, as of two weeks ago, United Pipe & Supply — which has locations in Washington, Oregon and Idaho — employed a total of 160 people.
Myers said that "a national company," whose name he declined to disclose, plans to take over the Vancouver location. "That's still being resolved," Myers said.
Of the company's 17 locations, Myers said, four will close without going to new ownership. Another five locations, including the Vancouver branch, have a "high probability" of being purchased by new owners, Myers said. That leaves eight locations that are still looking for buyers, he said.
Myers said in the past five to 10 years, United Pipe & Supply expanded substantially and that "they may have over-expanded." The company's problems were exacerbated by the collapse of the U.S. housing market, Myers said.
"It's been a rough (time) for any building supply industry," he said.
On its website, United Pipe & Supply has a logo that reads "1953-2012 Thank You!" It also thanks its "past and present customers for the many years of support and service. We are currently closing down operations of all branches in Oregon, Washington and Idaho. The branches listed below are open during the final closure process." Vancouver is among the listed branches.
Myers said "a number" of former United Pipe & Supply employees have found other jobs and "landed on their feet pretty well."

2 Comments | Copyright: IANS
Film and television actress Delnaaz Irani, who was not on talking terms with her ex-husband Rajeev Paul before entering the "Bigg Boss Season 6" house, is happy to be friends with him and thanks the reality show for bridging the communication gap.
"Even though we are not leaving the show as a couple, I am glad we are friends," she said in a press interaction held Thursday inside the "Bigg Boss" house here.
Quite true to its tagline "alag chhe (it's different)", the inmates of the sixth season were allowed to interact with media during the show, something never seen in the earlier five seasons.
After staying married for 14 years, Delnaaz and Rajeev got divorced last year. She revealed that she experienced mixed feelings when she met him on the show.
"I had a hint that Rajeev might be part of the show. I had mixed feelings when I saw him. I was shocked, took a step back and then smiled when I saw him," she said.
In the "Bigg Boss" house, Rajeev has been romantically linked to his co-inmate, actress Sanaa Khan.
When asked if she had any issues with that, Delnaaz said: "I have no jealousy. In fact, I am happy. I told Rajeev that from my side there is closure. We didn't used to even talk before this (the show)."
"He is a wonderful human being and very caring. I have always asked him to move on and I would be happy if he does," she added.
The finale of the show, which went on air on Colors in October last year, is said to be Jan 12 and the winner will reportedly take home Rs.50 lakh.
"Bigg Boss 6", being hosted by Salman Khan, kicked off with 15 contestants and right now Delnaaz is inside the house along with Rajeev, Urvashi Dholakia, Sanaa Khan, Sapna Bhavnani, Imam Siddique and model Niketan Madhok.
Delnaaz is nominated this week and if she survives eviction Friday, she will be in the finale along with Niketan, who is the first to enter the finals.

The Terminator franchise will once again try its hand at making it big on the small screen. This time, however, the forthcoming series will work in tandem with its feature film release, looking to interconnect and embrace various storylines.
The epic sci-fi series started by James Cameron in 1984, has made over $1 billion around the world across four films. A fifth film is slated for release in 2015, however it will be a reboot of original story, and set to be the first of a trilogy.
In conjunction with the anticipated film, a TV series will be launched by Skydance Pictures ('Star Trek Into Darkness') and Annapurna Pictures (Zero Dark Thirty'). Of course, at the moment very little is known about the movie, let alone the show, it is known the companies will embrace the Marvel model, creating a world that fans can immerse themselves into on both TV and film, as has been done with 'Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D' and their blockbuster superhero counterparts in theatres.
There is to come a pivotal moment in the film (as it happened in the 1984 version too), where a divergent storyline will present itself, lending itself to television while a main thread continues on the big screen.
This will of course be the second time the terminator world hits the small screen, following 'Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles,' which ran for two seasons on FOX starting in 2008. A mouthful to say aloud, the show was well-received by critics but not so much by viewers, despite some sci-fi star power. Lena Headey portrayed Sarah Connor, Thomas Dekker was her son John, and Summer Glau was the robotic protector sent from the future to protect them.
No word yet on who will portray Sarah Connor in the film, but Arnold Schwarzenegger, who has been more than eager to star in films again since leaving politics, will make an appearance for a fifth time. As for the TV series, it will be written by Zack Stentz and Ashley Miller, who together penned the screenplay for 'Thor' and 'X-Men: First Class.'
The pair also wrote episodes and produced on 'Chronicles,' which, depending on how you felt about the series, may sway your thoughts on what's to come.
Haters gonna hate. I'm excited. I enjoyed all the movies except Salvation, and the show was great.
do not make a reboot!! it will not work!! hollywood does not know how to make dark original movies no longer!!! the music wont be there like the orginal! the characters will be so developed, like Anonymous stated "everyone knows the plot and how it's going to end." this will be a hard blow for the whole franchise! but let the tv series have another chance!! TSCC was alright, but special FX have come a long way in five years!
Another one??? What happened to original ideas?? I guess there is an uncreative epidemia in Holywood, full of remakes and spins-off

A Classic Day out for Lester; RACING LEGENDS: Sir Peter O'Sullevan with Lester Piggott
Byline: Jonathan Powell
RACING legend Lester Piggott took centre stage once more yesterday atthe course where he won seven Classics in his matchless career.
On an afternoon of high emotion at Newmarket, the greatest jockey of them allwas feted by thousands of racegoers, friends and past rivals. Punters queuedpatiently for up to half an hour between races for an autograph from the manwho dominated the sport for almost half a century.
Sir Peter O'Sullevan set the tone, as he declared: 'This man is a hero.Wouldn't it be lovely if we could greet him next time as Sir Lester. Nosportsman deserves it more.' The subject of all the adulation was typicallytaciturn yesterday. Looking fit and well after a heart scare in the spring, hepreferred to leave the talking to others.
Though he did acknowledge: 'It's great to be here and a fantastic compliment to
Though he did acknowledge: 'It's great here and a fantastic compliment to haveall these races named after my Guineas winners.' Piggott was the heartbeat ofracing for six decades. He rode his first winner aged 12, in 1948, had hisfirst ride in the Derby at 15 and finished second on Gay Time, in 1952.
Two years later, he won the Derby for the first of nine times on Never Say Die.
The following month his refusal to be intimidated by senior jockeys on the samehorse at Ascot cost him a sixmonth suspension for rough riding..
Piggott was too tall and unorthodox to be the perfect jockey, but overcamethose difficulties to record over 5,000 winners around the world, ninechampionships and a record 30 Classics.
Through it all he was essentially a loner, a free spirit, with a mystique thatmade him the one jockey in the world everyone wanted to see. …
