Hell House Showtimes and Tickets
Read Movie Reviews about Hell House Write a Movie Review for Hell House
Release Date: 2002-10-04 (Dallas)
Genre: Documentary,
Rating: NR
Duration: 1hr 25min
Documents a high-tech fire-and-brimstone sermon that a Dallas Pentecostal church puts on every Halloween to scare kids into coming to services. Trinty Assembly of God church invented Hell Houses in 1990 and every Halloween since they've pulled out truckloads of lights, enlisted hundreds of actors and built an enormous haunted house complex from scratch. Trinty's Hell House looks to be just a souped-up haunted house until one enters. Inside, a tour guide dressed as a demon takes a group of kids from room to room to view depictions of school massacres, AIDS deaths, fatal drunk-driving crashes and botched abortions. All the while, demons goad gullible teen actors to commit sins and then drag their recently departed souls off to Hell. In the end, the audience is escorted to Hell to watch all of the sinners from Hell House burning and suffering and begging anyone who will listen not to make the same mistakes they made.

Well, it's here. The trailer for the Warner Bros./WWE team-up animated feature Scooby-Doo WrestleMania Mystery is officially upon us. AND GUESS WHO'S CHAMPION???
So here's the trailer, which you'll see includes WWE Superstars such as John Cena, The Miz, Sin Cara and Vince McMahon, along with Diva AJ Lee (in her old gear, no less). Also, not to bury the lead, but there's a ghostly demon bear (with, like, exposed ribs or something) threatening to maul everyone.
Before you watch though, check out how WWE.com lists the order of stars:
"WWE Superstars and Divas including Triple H, John Cena, Kane, The Miz, Brodus Clay, Santino Marella, Sin Cara and AJ Lee will appear in animated form and lend their voices to the project. WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon will also lend his voice and appear in animated form."
Yup, Triple H even gets top billing on the Scooby-Doo project. And as you can see from the Blue-ray box art…
…Triple H is also the champion. Wow. That's effin' comical. What a strange avenue to force your perverse pipe dream at people. Weirdo. This is like a joke the internet would make about Triple H. "I bet he even makes himself champ in the Scooby-Doo movie." But here it is. And there you have it.

The most fun part about DC Animated features tends to be the voice acting. This is where fans complain over casting director Andrea Romano's choices. Many times, there is a performance that really jumps out and that happens in Son of Batman with the rare extended look at Deathstroke, who is revealed to be the one-time successor to Ra's al Ghul as the leader of the League of Assassins. Voiced wonderfully sinister by Thomas Gibson (Criminal Minds), Deathstroke invades the League's stronghold with designs on eliminating Ra's, in another sterling but ill-fated role for Giancarlo Esposito (Gus Fring from Breaking Bad), and taking the reigns himself. He succeeds in, at least, half of this endeavor.
Following the attack, Ra's daughter (Talia) and grandson (Damian) leave for Gotham City in search of the Batman, who happens to be Damian's father. After rescuing her beloved Bat from the clutches of Killer Croc, Talia attempts to put the moves on the Dark Knight. The exchange itself is a bit confusing as Batman takes a lot on faith here. He acknowledges that he and Talia were once intimate, though she drugged him at the time. He actually takes Talia's word at face value, strange, since Batman generally trusts no one, and an al Ghul almost least of all. Maybe there was a DNA test that we just weren't privy to.
Talia lets Batman take their son to keep him safe. As Damian settles in at the cave, Batman wonders how Ra's could have died while watching a video of him being revived in the Lazarus pit. Why does Batman have this video and how could he possibly have such a tight close-up on his face? Jason O'Mara, in his second go at the Caped Crusader, still isn't entirely convincing, though hardly the worst Batman the DCAU has given us (that would be Ben McKenzie in Batman: Year One). His vocal tone is best matched when the character is exasperated rather than authoritative.
David McCallum captures Alfred's droll sarcasm perfectly. The rapport between he and Stuart Allan's Damian is highly amusing. Damian definitely acts the S.O.B. in both meanings of the acronym but his moxie is impossible to like. He has a lofty opinion of himself and his abilities and always tries to back it up. The main problem with the story is Talia as a character. She is shown against type. She is an al Ghul and, as such, is to be domineering, contentious, and devious. She's not supposed to be reasonable or accommodating. She comes off as little more than Donna Reed with a katana. Morena Baccarin (Firefly, Homeland) has an exotic beauty which doesn't translate in her voice here. She comes off as plain rather than a woman with great power.
Really impressive are many of the set pieces such as the establishing shot of Arkham Asylum. It displayed an incredible sense of depth, even in only two dimensions. Also lovely are the Batcave and the League's castle featured at the tale end of the second act. The score by Frederik Wiedmann is also properly bombastic. The action is the hallmark of the picture as it has gotten a lot closer to resembling a Spawn episode than anything created from the world of Bruce Timm and company. Never before has a Batman project had such riveting fight scenes sans Batman. Director Ethan Spaulding and his animators have bonded a poetry to brutality to create the offensive onslaught, a Cirque du Soleil with Batarangs and swordplay that Damian, the son of Batman, embodies.
While there is no real post-credits sequence, there are a bunch of stills of the Nightwing-Damian scuffle implied but unseen in the movie itself. Could this be a hint that the DCAU is planning the death of Bruce Wayne soon, settingup the Dick Grayson-Damian iteration of Batman & Robin?
Son of Batman comes to home video on May 6.

EUGENE - This Saturday night, University of Oregon volleyball fans will get their second chance in as many weekends to see one of the Ducks' most heralded freshman classes.
UO's six newcomers and the rest of the No. 20-ranked team will face an alumni squad for a free match that starts at 7 p.m. at Matthew Knight Arena.
Fans also have a special opportunity for free parking starting at 5:30 p.m. in the garage accessible via Columbia Street.
A host of special promotions and prize packages will also be on tap, including a contest to identify famous alumni.
After the best-of-five-set affair, Duck faithful will get their first chance of the season for autographs from players and coaches.
One of Oregon's deepest-ever rosters features Prepvolleyball.com's 14th-best recruiting class nationally.
The group includes Italian product and middle blocker Clelia DeFelice, prep All-America outside hitter Martenne Bettendorf, Senior Ace middle blocker Canace Finley, Senior Ace 150 outside hitter Madison Magee and All-CIF libero Tatum Norton.
Oregon also features one transfer - senior outside hitter Bethany (Wray) Bair - a two-time All-Big Sky honorable mention for Weber State in 2010 and '11.
Last Saturday, Oregon wrapped up its first week of practice with its Green and White Exhibition, and notable newcomer stats follow: Maddie Magee (13 kills, .240), Martenne Bettendorf (6 kills, 14 digs, 1 aces), Bethany Bair (8 kills), Tatum Norton (10 digs).
Also on Saturday, fans can buy season tickets at the Matthew Knight Arena on the north side of the facility that faces Franklin Street.
Afterward, fans can also buy season tickets in person at the match or visit the Duck ticket office or call (1-800-WEB-FOOT) during normal weekday business hours.
In upcoming weeks, Oregon opens its regular season on the road at a pair of tournaments in Columbus, Ohio (Aug. 24-25) and Athens, Ohio (Aug. 31-Sept. 2) that feature No. 24 Ohio State and No. 13 Kentucky, respectively.
Next month, the Ducks kick off their 12-match home schedule with a pair of non-conference tilts vs. UC Santa Barbara (Wed., September 5) and St. Mary's (Mon., Sept. 10). Both teams sported top-55 RPI national ratings and impressive records last year - UC Santa Barbara (#53, 19-12) and St. Mary's (#55, 17-12).
The remainder of UO's home schedule - all league contests - includes last year's national champion (UCLA), two more NCAA second-round qualifiers (Stanford, Washington), and two other postseason first-round advancers (Arizona, California).

I set out on an adventure: a journey to discover hidden worlds.
I found lands of beauty and colour, littered with structures old and new.
I scaled the heights to look out over canyons and fissures; discovered ruins.
I soothed my weary feet in the sea and camped by inland lakes.
I traversed the desert; and encountered foreign life in far corners
of this strange, marvellous kingdom I had ventured into.
Fearing my tales of such extraordinary places would not be believed
I brought back photographic evidence.

There are kinds of stuff available to represent your favorite university, whether it's the one you graduated from or the one you root for during basketball or football season. One thing that's missing is collegiate licensed sneakers. Not anymore, thanks to Jordana Schrager. who as a high school student, used to doodle elaborate college designs on a pair of old sneakers which quickly grabbed the attention of other people wanting a pair as well.
'I started out drawing college designs on a pair of old white sneakers. Once I started wearing these shoes, people started contacting me asking for their own college kicks. This is how SKICKS was born. I am inspired by the spirit and pride that each college student has towards their own school.'
Now a college sophomore at the University of Michigan the young entrepreneur has taken her love of art and design and has created Skicks, a new line of original, unique college inspired sneakers. Colleges and universities are sticklers as to who they license their collegiate logos to and Skicks has obtained that ability to create these new super stylish and completely fashion forward sneakers.
Made of canvas and rubber the sneakers, made their debut May 5 and feature for the moment the following schools in the debut collection: Auburn University, Florida State University, Indiana University, Michigan State University, Penn State University, Syracuse University, University of Georgia, University of Miami, University of Michigan and University of Tennessee. Don't see your school? Don't worry Jordana and Skicks will continue to add schools so who knows? By next back to school season your college/university might just be available!
'Whether you're supporting the Orange at the Carrier Dome, the Hoosiers' at Assembly Hall or the Georgia Bulldogs at Sanford Stadium, these kicks are the perfect complement to any school uniform.'
Even for the not so die hard fans of collegiate wear, Skicks can still become an integral part of any fashionista's wardrobe. Remember athleticism is a huge trend this season and Skicks fare well with any outfit you want to add a bit of fun to. Love stripes? Skicks has them! Love camo? Skicks has them too! Love animal prints, checks and plaid? You guess it! Skicks has it!
Skicks will be available for purchase at select retailers, fan shops, and university bookstores at any of the above named schools just in time for the back to school season. All the sneakers will be available for sale online at http://www.skicks.com/ as of mid August 2014. Skicks range in price from $59.99-$69.99 and come in flat canvas or high top styles. To view the schools and their different styles just click through the slideshow attached.

No museum visit is complete without swinging through the gift shop. The expansion of the Weisman Art Museum presented an opportunity to reinvent the store—now referred to as the WAM Shop. The assortment, like the museum, leans contemporary, but in what store buyer/manager Marissa Onheiber describes as a "softer way" that gives nods to the breadth of the Weisman collection. You'll find pottery by ceramic artist Jan McKeachie Johnston, whose work is in the museum collection, and Weisman architect Frank Gehry's Twist Cube, which functions as a seat or table. There are fair-trade scarves, jewelry from local artists, and adorable wool elephants designed by an architect. "Thoughtfully designed product" was Onheiber's top criterion, and virtually every item has an interesting story or connection to the museum and Minnesota. Of course, every museum also needs a T-shirt, and WAM's "Don't touch the art" could challenge the Walker's "Closed Mondays" as a hipster must-have. 333 River Pkwy.

"Perhaps locally grown produce tastes better to some people. And perhaps it is psychologically better to have close contact with the people who grow your food. But that doesn't make it good for the environment," says one expert.
Oh, and the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine wants to outlaw hamburgers, too.

What's the weather like in your neck of the woods? We're betting that "Today" show co-host and weather reporter Al Roker can tell you. What else he knows: What it's like to lose 140 pounds. In a recent interview with U.S. News, Al talked about his decision to undergo weight loss surgery and how he took off the weight. His forecast for his future? Sunshine all the way.
The title of Al's book sums up how he feels about his weight loss success: "Never Goin' Back: Winning the Weight Loss Battle For Good" (click for details).
"I've never felt more strongly about this than I do now," says Al. And one key to maintaining his weight loss: Working out.
I know I need to exercise. For some people, exercise is like breathing; for others, like me, it takes effort. Exercising is what I need for my metabolism and for a better sense of well-being.
But diet is equally important, and Al recalls his binge-eating episodes. A typical meal: "A couple of Quarter Pounders, two large orders of fries, and a vanilla shake," or "a dozen Krispy Cremes."
Reflecting on those binges, Al now feels that "doesn't even sound like the same person!"
He compares those episodes to drug addiction.
"When you're in the midst of it, whether an alcoholic or a drug addict, that secondary voice inside you is not loud enough. It almost feels like the "devil and angel" sitting on your shoulders, like in a sitcom."
Al takes pride in his new ability to control his portions.
I used to look at a pint of Häagen-Dazs and call it a serving size. Now I know that I can have a couple of spoonfuls and I'm done. I'm more in control—and I'm controlling food.
As for his book, Al hopes that others find it helpful. His message: Whatever journey you chose, whether it's weight loss surgery, diet, exercise, or a combination, success is achievable - but it takes work.
"I wrote this book to share my personal journey and what I went through, and I hope it will be helpful to whoever reads it," he says. Learn more about "Never Goin' Back: Winning the Weight Loss Battle For Good" by clicking here.

Breast Cancer Before 50 Linked to More Distress
Personalized treatment might improve health-related quality of life in younger patients
Topics: Aging: Misc Cancer: Breast Cancer: Misc Depression Menopause / Postmenopause Weight Gain Women's Problems: Misc
FRIDAY, Jan. 20 (HealthDay News) -- Younger women with breast cancer may experience a decrease in their health-related quality of life because of increased mental distress, weight gain and other factors, a new study finds.
Decreased physical activity, infertility and early-onset menopause were among the other problems these women faced, according to the report published Jan. 20 in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
The findings were based on data from 28 previous studies, conducted between 1990 and 2010, which focused on how breast cancer affects the quality of life of breast cancer patients aged 50 and younger.
The review revealed that overall quality of life was reduced in these patients, and that mental issues were more severe than physical problems, said Dr. Patricia Ganz, director of cancer prevention and control research at the Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of California, Los Angeles, and colleagues.
The investigators also found that younger breast cancer patients were more depressed than women of the same age without cancer in the general population, or breast cancer patients older than 50. Premature menopause, infertility and menopause-related symptoms were more common among patients 50 and younger and contributed to their levels of distress, the findings showed.
Even though exercise rates among younger patients generally increased after treatment, weight gain and physical inactivity were common among these women, the study authors pointed out in a university news release.
The findings suggest that personalized treatment is particularly important for younger women with breast cancer, the researchers said.
"By tailoring adjuvant therapy regimens and giving cytotoxic therapy [such as chemotherapy] only to those who may benefit, we can mitigate some of these side effects, but the long life expectancy for these younger women also provides a window of opportunity for cancer prevention and health promotion activities," the study authors concluded in their report.

According to GreenvilleOnline (Greenville News) on May 8,2014, '60 Minutes Sports' dedicated its first Emmy to a Greenville, South Carolina kayaker who died last summer in an accident on the Potomac River. GreenvilleOnline reports that on July 11, 2013, '23-years-old "Shannon Christy was trying to navigate Great Falls in preparation for The Great Falls Race which is part of the Potomac River Festival."
Lydia Warren, a reporter for the Daily Mail described Christy as an extreme kayaker who died after she "was overtaken" by powerful rapids. "Shannon was being profiled by '60 Minutes Sports' prior to her death. According to Warren, Shannon Christy was an experienced kayaker, preparing for the Great Falls Race when she encountered trouble in the first drop, one of the steepest in the world.
"Her kayak was found drifting downstream and her body was eventually recovered from beneath tons of water in a deadly section of the run. Organizers called off the competition following the tragedy."
According to GreenvilleOnline, "Shannon was being videotaped when she went over the falls and disappeared. A tourist who witnessed the accident alerted others. Her body was found about four hours later."
Christy's death came just two days after the 60 Minutes crew interviewed and filmed her during her first practice run on the Class Five Rapid, which is the most dangerous category. During the interview, Christy admitted, "We have all been in situations where you've had to pull your spray skirt and be ejected from the kayak. It's not something that's ideal or what you want to do, but it does happen to the best of the best."
David Martin of CBS News accepted the Emmy and dedicated it to Christy. Mr. Martin spoke to Christy at Great Falls two days before she died. He remembers Christy saying, "I kayak because I love the sport. Kayaking takes you to places that most of society will never see. I love the act of kayaking for what it is."

College Hockey:Bracket busted yet? Only 1 percent of entries still have chance at perfection
So, how's your bracket doing?
Sorry. Judging from the statistics we're seeing in College Hockey Pickem 2013, that might be a sore subject.
The first game of the 2013 NCAA tournament eliminated the team predicted as the national champion on 39 percent of the brackets. Yale's overtime win over Minnesota also took out 10,339 of 10,648 completed entries from a run at a perfect bracket.
After the wins by Yale, Massachusetts-Lowell, North Dakota and New Hampshire on Friday, there are only 112 brackets (1 percent) that have a chance to go 15-for-15.
Here's the rundown of which teams were favored to win it all:
Minnesota: 4,117 (38.66%)
North Dakota: 1,375 (12.91%)
Boston College: 1,298 (12.19%)
Notre Dame: 715 (6.71%)
Massachusetts-Lowell: 664 (6.24%)
Quinnipiac: 620 (5.82%)
Wisconsin: 554 (5.20%)
Miami: 483 (4.54%)
Denver: 223 (2.09%)
St. Cloud State: 212 (1.99%)
New Hampshire: 202 (1.90%)
Union: 81 (0.76%)
Minnesota State: 57 (0.54%)

Crisis Line 1-800-649-1092
"Dedicated to breaking the cycle of abuse."
Learn about the
Every fifteen seconds, a woman is battered in the United States.
Domestic violence is the single largest cause of injury to women in the United States. It is more common than injuries sustained in car accidents, muggings, and rapes combined.
Domestic violence occurs among all races, religions, and socio-economic groups.
Almost half of all injuries presented by women to the emergency surgical services occur in the context of partner abuse: and half of all rapes to women over 30 are part of the battering syndrome.
A woman's greatest risk of assault is in the home. A woman's chances of being assaulted at home by her partner are greater than that of a police officer being assaulted on the job.
Studies of abused women have found that the majority - 73% to 85% - do not experience physical assault until after they have married the abuser. Often violence occurs within the first year the couple lives together: many of the first incidents are around the time of the wedding or shortly thereafter.
A large number of violent attacks against women occur when they are pregnant, thus increasing the risk of injury and of miscarriage or stillbirth.
Infants who witness violence are often characterized by poor health, poor sleeping habits, and excessive screaming (all of which may contribute to further violence
80% of violent juvenile offenders and adult prisoners come from homes where domestic violence occurred.
63% of boys, aged eleven to twenty, who commit homicide, murdered the men who were abusing their mothers.
Children who live in a battering relationship experience the most insidious form of child abuse. Whether or not they are physically abused by either parent is less important than the psychological scars they bear from watching their fathers beat their mothers. They learn to become part of a dishonest conspiracy of silence. They learn to lie to prevent inappropriate behavior, and may learn to suspend fulfillment of their needs rather than risk another confrontation.They do expend a lot of energy avoiding problems. They live in a world of make-believe.
Every fifteen seconds, a woman is battered in the United States.
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: DEFINITIONS AND EXAMPLESThe legal definition of Domestic Violence is set out in Section 93-21-101 of the Mississippi Code of 1972, as Annotated.
To summarize, domestic violence is defined as acts of physical, sexual and emotional (mental) attacks between persons who maintain an intimate relationship or family/household members who live together or who formerly lived together. This includes wives/husbands, persons living together as wife/husband, divorced couples, and child/parent. Other examples can include girlfriend/boyfriend and other family members such as brother/sister/uncle/niece, and etc.
Although it is recognized that victims of domestic violence can be males, we are referring to victims as females unless otherwise stated. Many words are used to describe victims and abusers of domestic violence. These are used interchangeably. They include family violence, wife abuse, spouse abuse, battered woman, batterer, and etc.
Domestic violence does NOT include the normal stresses and conflicts in a relationship, but rather the behavior that causes or can cause bodily injury or mental suffering.
Some examples of physical abuse include: pushing, shoving, shaking, slapping, choking, punching, beating, sexual abuse, rape, and using a weapon or any type of instrument to cause bodily harm or injury.
Some examples of mental/emotional abuse include: criticizing, humiliating, ignoring, threats of bodily harm or taking children away, isolation, extreme, jealousy, destruction of property, or harming pets.
Domestic Abuse is a cycle with a pattern which consists of three phases: the tension-building phase, the explosive/physical beating phase, and the loving phase.
Unless this cycle
of violence is broken, it will
continue and the abuse will become more frequent and severe.

The Miami Dining Examiner happened upon Bobby Flay's Burger Palace quite accidentally while returning Christmas gifts at Dadeland Mall. It's recently opened on the second floor of the new wing at Dadeland.
The dining spot, backed by Food Network star Bobby Flay, was clean, efficient, reasonable and, most importantly, the food was good. The newly opened gourmet burger joint was pretty packed on a recent visit.
The long line allows diners to survey the vast array of ten signature burgers available, including an ever-changing Burger of the month. The burger for January is the Koreatown, featuring a soy glaze, Korean ketchup, kimchee (trend alert!) and topped with a fried egg (another trend). It sounded impossibly delicious, but messy so the Miami Dining Examiner tried something else.
The helpful and cheerful counter server advised on the favorite burgers of diners at Bobby Flay's Burger Palace. Topping the list was the Bobby Blue and the L.A. burger so the Miami Dining Examiner ordered the fresh sounding L.A. burger. Her dining companion ordered the Black and White shake, made with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup.
Other burger options included the Palace Classic with American cheese, lettuce, tomato and sliced red onion ($6.75), the Dallas, a spice-crusted burger with coleslaw, Monterey jack cheese, bar-b-que sauce and pickles ($7.75) and the Miami, a take-off on the Cuban sandwich. This one had ham, Swiss cheese, mustard, mayo and pickles for $7.75.
Sides are reasonably priced French Fries, sweet potato fries or beer-battered onion rings, all for three bucks. Any burger can be "crunchified" by adding homemade potato chips. Burgers come in a selection of Angus beef, ground turkey or ground chicken meats.
For diners who want something other than a burger, there are grilled cheese sandwiches with a variety of cheeses ($5.50) and a crunch salad with veggies for $7.50. Online ordering and takeout is also available.
After ordering and paying at the counter, diners sit at lime green revolving chairs at the diner-inspired, winding countertop. Cheerful servers deliver dishes as they are ready and diners can watch the action at the open kitchen area.
The Black and White Shake came in a tall, cold glass, with a long silver spoon and wide straw, all the better for slurping up the decadent liquid. It was kind of like a Frosty, but richer; it was much enjoyed.
The L.A. burger came topped with melted Cheddar cheese and served on a toasted, sesame seed bun. It was cooked perfectly (medium), with a pink inside that was warm and juicy. It was topped with a sliced tomato, a plop of creamy avocado and a pile of crunchy watercress. It came with a big dill pickle half; the burger was delicious.
There are an array of sauces, should diners feel the need, available on a lazy boy on the table. A tasty burger sauce, chipotle, jalapeno and others are available, although the Miami Dining Examiner enjoyed her burger just the way it came.
A fellow diner ordered the Bobby Blue and it looked amazing (although messy). The burger was stacked with two crunchy bacon strips, had lettuce and tomato and hunks of blue cheese dripping off the burger. Another nearby diner, had a "cruchified" burger, with the golden thin potato orbs of homemade potato chips, elevating the burger to a new level.
The Miami Dining Examiner is a fan of Bobby Flay's show Throwdown. On this show, he challenges the best chefs of a certain dish to compete with his version of the dish. Oftentimes, he beats the cooks at their own game. This is because her really understands food, quality, flavors and textures and how to bring a new twist to traditional favorites.
In a city inundated with gourmet burger joints, most much more expensive and less accessible than this one, Bobby's Burger Palace stands out as a place to return to over and over again.

Secrets of Success
Been so busy I missed yesterday's blog!!
Wednesday, April 18, 2012
Hi...wow..I missed blogging yesterdy...it was a busy day..did lots of housework catchup..when I spend so much time outside the house really suffers...hubby went to town for the afternoon so I was on cow check call..and of course a cow was calving..she didn't progress until hubby came home so she calved in the evening unassisted :)
I really wished I brought my camera along while I quadded the herd last night as it was soo calm and the herd was reflected into the slough..jsut gorgeous!!
I got a couple new magazines in the mail yesterday and haven't even had a chance to read them yet!!
Today we were off early to Weyburn..quite cool and cloudy and rainy which was turning to more snow up by Weyburn...hubby had some pasture stuff to do..even tho no one knows when the pastures will close (sometime between next year and 6 years..) so it's business as usual and it was time to upgrade the computers and programs..so while hubby did up some early chores I took his computer all apart. The laptop, docking station, monitor,and printer were all replaced. Now we have a new printer that's a fax machine and scanner too...They seem to be going wild and spending their money before the pastures close..of course it will all have to go back and be disposed of when they do close..what a waste :( In the past week we've gotten the newer tractor, brand new quad, computer etc and next is going to be a newer truck....
While I was in Weyburn we did some shopping, too (we had a neighbor checking on our cows) I bought a few things for the bridal shower in May from the $ store. I also got a big set of glasses from Walmart for a shower gift. We got some groceries..it had been quite awhile since I stocked up and spent a bit over $100 but got lots of freggies :) Bananas, apples, cantaloupe, spinach, peppers, sweet potatoes, asparagus, mushrooms and half price strawberries, half price sugar snap peas and half price eggplant..now to find out how to prepare eggplant...any one have some good recipes? Well that should keep me in freggies for quite awhile!
Lunch was at A & W and I had a grilled chicken breast on a whole wheat bun with lettuce and tomato and a coffee...we grabbed KFC for supper and I had one breast with no skin with my spinach, strawberry, mushroom and almond salad with a vinegrette dressing..very good!!
When we got home we hooked up the new computer..then started on chores.. hubby has to be gone all day tomorrow so he fed for tomorrow tonight..he has to be at another pasture all day to help semen test 80 bulls..I'm in charge of the herd again... While he fed I quadded the pairs and forked hay for our small herd of 5 bulls...
The couch is feeling mighty fine tonight..so I watched a bit of hockey and am catching up on spark and other internet stuff...
Tomorrow while I hold down the fort I have to remember to bake a Birthday cake for my friend..it's her Birthday on Thursday and it's cake and party time..with her and my other best friend :) Fun times...
Well..best sign off..thanks for dropping by and keep on Sparkin'
Love Donna
Here's some things I'd like to share..the first is from Sparker staciepete It was on her blog is 3 things that helped her lose weight..
1..If hunger is not the problem, then eating is not the solution.
2..A goal without a plan is a wish, make a plan.
3...Defeat is temporary. Giving up is permanent.
And of course a Happiness Quote....
Seek out the happiness in all of life`s crappiness.
-Karen Salmansohn

I was going through your blogs but I don't see anything about why they are going to close pastures. I don't know anything about how Canada does things but why would they want to close pastures that are producing cows & offspring. Seems like it's a money maker to me.
Have you ever written about this earlier? I didn't go back to your first blogs, but I think I will sometime. I copied your friends losing weight items and titled it Donna's Words of Wisdom.

I wish that you had taken your camera also. I always like the little insights into your life. I have a really good camera, but so far have not use it myself and have not had time to figure it all out and I do believe that my time is going to get shorter and shorter as time goes on.
Take care of yourself and all the new babies

The Web, data repositories, and digital libraries have become society's core information resources, and potential knowledge is embedded in these large digital information stores. Effective use of massive data resources requires new methods for processing masses of poorly organized information into useful and actionable knowledge to address complex scientific and social problems. The Knowledge Discovery from Digital Information (KDDI) research cluster advances the design, development, and testing of computational methods and tools to discover and exploit the knowledge available in tera- and peta-byte scale information stores. KDDI supports basic and applied collaborative research in the following broad areas: information visualization, machine learning, data mining, natural language processing, Web archiving, digital curation, information retrieval, and image, audio, and video processing.

Selma University is located in what is know as the deep south, the Black Belt Region. At a Women's Baptist State convention in 1878. The school was originally designed for academic training for girls. It was called Colored Youth for Religious service. The slaves were free in 1862 and just a few years later, they started a school in Selma, Alabama. We think that Martin Luther King brought education and opened doors for blacks. However, Blacks were trying to have equality on their own by starting schools. Whites had their own schools, and blacks were busy organizing black schools for higher education.
If you were to visit Selma University in Alabama, it is located 45 miles west of Montgomery. Everything is close to shopping and transportation. They have a small enrollment, and each student is assigned to a faculty advisor, who assist the students in their programs and future careers.

07.06.2011 / Save at the Pump. Tips for Driving More Efficiently.
As prices at the pump continue to rise, you may be looking for ways other than cutting back your driving to save on gas and money. Driving more efficiently is an easy way to achieve a better fuel economy.
The U.S. Department of Energy recommends the following tips:
- Avoid aggressive driving. Rapid accelerating and braking wastes gas and can lower your gas mileage by 33 percent at highway speeds and by 5 percent in the city.
- Observe the speed limit. Gas mileage decreases rapidly at speeds above 60 mph on average. Typically for each 5 mph you drive over 60 mph you pay an additional $0.24 per gallon of gas.
- Do not keep unnecessary and heavy items in your vehicle. An extra 100 pounds could reduce your MPG by up to 2 percent.
- Ensure your tires are properly inflated. Check your vehicle's owner's manual to find out how much air should be in your tires.
- Use cruise control to maintain a constant speed. It will usually help you save gas since you are not accelerating and braking as often.
- Use overgear drives so your car's engine speed goes down, saving gas and reducing engine wear.
Another option to consider is purchasing a more fuel-efficient car. From upgrading to a hybrid vehicle or simply switching from an SUV to a compact car, buying a car with better fuel economy will no doubt save you money. FuelEconomy.gov www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/findacar.htm
But before jumping into a new car purchase, you should consider your family's transportation needs. Do you mainly use your car to commute to work? Or do you need to drive your children to after-school activities on a regular basis? There are fuel-efficient cars available for all types of lifestyles, and First National Bank offers vehicle financing to meet your needs and terms to fit your budget.

5.7″ Vivo Xplay 3S with 2,560×1,440 touchscreen gets handled in first hands-on live image
Remember the Vivo Xplay 3S? It's almost certainly going to be the first phone in the world to come with the insane screen resolution of 2,560×1,440. Yes, more than "Full HD", and a lot more than most laptop screens come with even nowadays.
The Xplay 3S is perhaps the epitome of the screen resolution arms race that Apple started way back when it coined the term "Retina Display". And then everyone wanted in on the action. So we got 720p phone screens, 1080p phone screens, and now this.
The Vivo Xplay 3S will be released in China in December, and you'll be able to buy one for 3,699 yuan (that's around $606 or €449 at the current exchange rates). That's obviously a great price, but something like this is the norm in China (and not anywhere else in the world, unfortunately).
Aside from the 5.7-inch touchscreen bearing the aforementioned resolution, the Vivo Xplay 3S will also come with a 2.3 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, 3 GB of RAM, 32 or 64 GB of storage space, a 13 MP rear camera, a 5 MP front camera, dual 4G LTE support (TDD and FDD), a dedicated audio Hi-Fi chip, USB 3.0 support, and a 3,000 mAh battery.
What you can see above is the first live hands-on image of the Xplay 3S. The handset sports Corning's Gorilla Glass 3 on both the front and the back, while the sides consist of a high-strength metal frame. Sure, Gorilla Glass is nice, but we would have prefered the trend of glass on the backs of phones to have died down by now.

Utah Jazz: How will the Jazz fare after thrilling win?
SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Jazz's pandemonium-inciting win over the mighty Cleveland Cavaliers and the even mightier LeBron James late Thursday night, no doubt, will be remembered and talked about for years.
And Sundiata Gaines' future grandkids won't be the only ones doing the listening.
Yep, this nationally televised thriller — a 97-96 Jazz heart-pounding, nail-biting victory highlighted by a last-second, game-winning 3-pointer by the new kid on the block, some eye-popping plays by Kyle Korver, comebacks galore and an all-around wild fourth quarter — will go down as one of the franchise's magical moments.
The buzz lasted long after the buzzer-beater and well after Utah's celebrating rookie hero came down off of the scorer's table.
Less than 12 hours after shocking James and his 30-11 Cavs crew — and providing sports media and fans with one heckuva story — the surging 22-17 Jazz reconvened for practice and were still acting giddy and geeked on Friday morning.
And not just the players, mind you.
"It was wonderful to see it happen," said Jazz coach Jerry Sloan, whose team hosts the Milwaukee Bucks tonight. "Our players are very excited about it and our coaches are very excited about it."
Gaines, the 10-day man of the hour, was still trying to avoid pinching himself.
"You can't really describe it," said the former D-League player, who earned a second 10-day contract before his big shot and perhaps much more after the play. "You can talk about it as much as possible, but the feeling is something else, and miraculous."
Korver — the man who made the overlooked Miracle Shot No. 1 in the final seconds — called it one of the top five finishes he's ever seen.
Andrei Kirilenko described the ending as being "crazy" and "unbelievable to watch" on TV, something he and Deron Williams had to do from the training room because of injuries.
Wesley Matthews was still raving about the win, too.
"It was amazing," he said. "It was a lot of fun, and I was glad I was able to be a part of it."
But while most of the buzzing has reverberated on Gaines' shot — and deservingly so — there were certainly other buzz-worthy moments in Utah's third-straight win.
Such as when Korver looked like he'd decided to try out for the Harlem Globetrotters.
In the official play-by-play report, Korver's tricky basket, which trimmed LeBron's lead to 95-94 with 5.9 seconds left, was simply called a 19-foot jump shot. No mention that the sharpshooter hurriedly got and shot the ball from behind the basket at an angle on the baseline while falling out of bounds.
What was Korver thinking?
Even he was surprised at what was going through his mind.
When he was younger, the shooting guard used to watch Larry Bird hit a behind-the-bucket shot on a video called "Dazzling Dunks and Basketball Bloopers." The fond memory popped in his head as he rushed over to get the inbounds pass from Paul Millsap and then put up a quick shot to ensure the Jazz could still foul and have time for a last-second attempt.
"I just remember the announcer. He's like, 'Over the backboard, ooooh!' " Korver recalled. "And I was thinking about that as I caught it and I was like, 'OK, it's over the backboard!' "
Ooooh! Just like he's done against his brothers and friends for years.
"I've shot that shot hundreds of times in H-O-R-S-E games," he said. "It's just what you do."
It wasn't the only highlight-reel-worthy Korver play.

Marina Vallarta began as a development of Grupo Situr, a large real estate development company out of Guadalajara who were active in the late 80s to mid' 90s. Marina Vallarta was their first "mega-development", developed in the late 80s and would become their most successful project and a model for other similar projects to follow, such as Marina Ixtapa, Marina Mazatlan, Playacar and Bajamar. It was the first private development of its kind. There had been other similar type major projects, but they were developed by the federal government under FONATUR - Marina Vallarta was the first private endeavor and became a model for many other private developers in future years. Situr began to have fiscal problems that were escalated by the economic problems of Mexico in late 1994, from which Situr never did recover. Fortunately by this time Marina Vallarta was mostly built out with the marina, golf course and many of the sub-developments securely in place. Situr's other projects throughout Mexico did not do as well and eventually, ended up taking the company down.

Frontline Combat v1 #14, 1953 - Wally Wood's cover seems deceptively simple, yet competently laid out. Inside, the tale of downed pilot's rescue by seaplane is straightforwardly rendered. Devoid of combat action, a day in the life of a rescue crew seeks to inform rather than excite. Regardless, Wood's illustrations are top notch. In Joe Kubert's story, the greatest naval battle of the American Revolution is retold. Unlike the previous tale, destruction is rampant throughout, artfully drawn with expressive brushwork. Other artists in this issue include Jack Davis and George Evans. This is number 12 of 13 Frontline Combat issues with Wood art and/or covers and number 1 of 1 Frontline Combat issues with Kubert art and/or covers.

GLASSBORO — The Heritage's Dairy Store at 525 Mullica Hill Road was robbed by an unarmed man on the evening of April 30, according to police.
Officers were called to the store around 9:13 p.m. and learned that a male had entered and demanded cash from the registers. The man took an undisclosed amount of cash before fleeing on foot, police said.
The robber is described as an approximately 5 foot 8 inch tall white male believed to be in his mid-30s, said police. He was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and a black bandana covering his face at the time of the robbery.

Oatmeal Cinnamon Cookies RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
4.5 18 16
My family loves these big old-fashioned cookies. They're crisp, yet still chewy in the center, and the cinnamon makes them a little different from typical oatmeal cookies.
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups quick-cooking oats
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, baking powder and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in oats.
- Shape into 1-1/2-in. balls. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 1 minute before removing to wire racks. Yield: 4 dozen.

30th Anniversary 'Back to the Future' Screenings Will Feature Live Orchestra And New Music
Posted on Tuesday, October 21st, 2014 by Germain Lussier
Today is October 21, 2014. In exactly one year, we'll have Hoverboards, flying cars, Jaws 19 and a Cubs World Series victory. At least, that's what Robert Zemeckis' Back to the Future Part II surmised. And while it's going to end up being totally wrong about all of it, it's a date everyone is looking forward to.
2015 also marks the 30th anniversary of the first Back to the Future film, released on July 3, 1985. Much like we saw with Ghostbusters this year, plenty of celebrations are expected for the milestone from merchandise and screenings to documentaries and more. One new addition to the list is the announcement of special 30th anniversary screenings that'll play at concert venues all over the world. There, the soundtrack of the film will be edited out so a full orchestra can perform Alan Silvestri's iconic score live. Even better? Silvestri is writing 15 minutes of new score for the performances. Read More »

"There's no one better than Leroy!"
This came from District Leader Elmer Blackburne. He was but one of the many Southeast Queens leadership members who came out on Tuesday, August 11 to support Leroy Comrie in his bid for New York State Senate in District 14.
Led by Congressman Gregory Meeks, the large contingent of supporters included nearly all of the Council Members, Assembly Members, District Leaders, Civic and Union Leaders that cover Southeast Queens. Not only was there a show of support from area elected officials, but from neighboring Districts as well, including Councilman Rory Lancman, Assembly Members David Weprin (District 24: Richmond Hills, Jamaica Estates), Nily Rozic (District 25 Bayside & Flushing) and Mike Simanowitz (District 27: Flushing, College Point).
The Congressman noted that every level of government and key neighborhoods were represented in support of Comrie. "We want to make sure the state is entirely blue," said Meeks.
Supporters took their turn at the podium to speak about Comrie's background in the City Council, his works and emphasized the need to be united in City and State efforts.
"It's really important times in New York City to advance the progressive agenda," said Councilman Lancman.
There was little talk of the incumbent, Senator Malcolm Smith, who is running to retain his seat. Senator Smith is facing charges for his role in a bribery scheme for the NYC Mayorial seat. Recently, co-defendant Councilman Daniel Halloran, who was tried alongside the Senator prior to the case ending in a mistrial, was convicted.
At the podium, there was talk about the need to fill a void.
"The governor is not running any special elections," said Comrie in an interview after the press conference. If Senator Smith is convicted, the seat would stand empty until a special election is called. "We have real needs and real issues. We cannot afford to have a void," he said.
Leroy is the former City Councilman for District 27 which covers St. Albans, Jamaica, Cambria Heights, Jamaica and Hollis, areas which are part of Senatorial District 14. Comrie ran for Queens Borough President in 2013, but pulled out of the race due to lackluster fundraising. He was then appointed as the Queens Deputy Borough President in a move that was applauded by former constituents. He stepped down from that position to become Special Assistant in order to run for NYS Senate.
The Primary Election is on September 9th. Several debates for candidates in the running are being scheduled in the community in the upcoming weeks.

Phil Spencer has made more comments regarding the state of the gaming industry. According to a report from NZ Gamer on March 14, the vice president from Microsoft Studios (the publishing company behind "Halo 5" and other Xbox One titles) told a crowd at SXSW 2014 he appreciates fans of the Xbox brand. However, he also believed that enthusiasts should not just pick one console. You can find his comments from the event below:
There seems to be this natural faction that gets created around what console you own, and then this, I would call it unhealthy dislike, for people who own the other console. I love the fans that we have, but I don't think being a fan of Xbox does not mean you can't be a fan of something else, or you have to be an anti-fan of some other brand.
Despite jumping into the console space years after Nintendo and Sony, Microsoft was still able to build a large following. Most of the initial success of the first Xbox console is due to the "Halo" franchise. The next mainline installment, "Halo 5," is currently being developed at 343 Industries with no release date time frame announced. You can find a selection of screens from the sequel with the slideshow to the left of this article.
Phil Spencer also talked about console gaming possibly losing traction against smart phones and touch pads. He believed that the PS4 and Xbox One both showed this isn't the cases by having successful launches last year. You can view the rest of his statement below:
A year ago, the question was whether consoles were relevant anymore, and has the industry moved beyond console gaming--is anyone going to show up to the party when these two big console manufacturers bring their products out in November? And today I think we'd all say that hasn't been a problem. If you look at what both consoles have done, it's been an amazing year.
The PS4 has sold more than 6 million units as of earlier this month. Microsoft has not yet updated their sales data for the Xbox One, which sold 3 million units as of the end of last year.

The transcendental argument for God's existence takes different forms, but is basically an argument based upon the necessary preconditions for transcendentals. Transcendentals are those things which are true but do not depend on material conditions such as location and time for their validity. Such transcendentals include the laws of logic: the law of identity, the law of non-contradiction, the law of excluded middle, and the law of proper inference. These are not dependent on space, time, or humans for their validity.
See the article The Transcendental Argument for the Existence of God.

The Story of Bernie works well to illustrate how the use of pornography can take over and lead to a clear moral failure. Bernie was in a healthy marriage, but pornography began to invade his life. He began to look at it more often and fantasize about the women he found. With time, he even became enamored with the thought of hiring a prostitute and his mind dwelt on the idea with more frequency.
Then, on a business trip, Bernie was propositioned. At first it was surreal, and he did not fully comprehend what he was doing. But before he knew it he was in the room with the woman. Only when she began discussing a price did Bernie realize what he was doing, give her a little money, and rush out of the room.
The frightening reality is that many men do not escape, even at the last minute. Pornography opens men's minds to fantasies and actions that tear down moral fiber. Bernie's pornography use nearly led to adultery, but some other men are not as fortunate as he. Marriages have been ruined because of pornography. Likewise, single people have been damaged. As Dr. Archibald Hart says, what seems like "innocent" fantasy often leads to acting out in unacceptable ways.

Okay, some potentially good news:
Under System Preferences > Bluetooth > Advanced > option to Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer
This is turned on by default and is apparently a per-user setting, not a global setting, which is where the conflict begins, from what I can tell.
My guess is that, when turned on for all users, like it is by default, when the computer goes to sleep, the bluetooth signal gets screwy, probably stepping over itself, to listen for incoming requests for both users for both keyboard and trackpad. And/or, when a user wakes the computer by pressing one of these devices, the signal tries to relaunch the Bluetooth stack for both users for both devices immediately, again probably stepping over itself, setting up a chain of events that will cause Bluetooth connectivity to fail altogether after a few sleep/wake and/or Fast User Switching cycles.
So, for a couple days now I've been running with this option turned off for one user and on for the other user. So, depending on which user is currently logged into the console, you may have to wake the computer by way of the power button or the keyboard/trackpad. The good news, though, is that it would typically foul up after no more than a day, and it's gone a couple of days thus far without issue.
