"Myself, my husband and dogs stayed for the week at Kathy's cottage. We found that cottage to be very peaceful, quiet and relaxing. As seniors with busy careers and a new grandchild, peaceful was exactly what we needed! The cottage is in a quiet neighborhood very close to the ocean and a lovely park for walking the dogs or just sitting and looking at the boats and water. I especially appreciated the shabby chic decor, quality furnishings and linens. Although in a close neighborhood, the backyard feels secluded. We could see the roof tops but not neighbors, which was great. It was also very quiet at night allowing us to eat outside in a very private setting with the smell of the trees, plants and ocean - a real treat. Kathy was also very responsive and gracious, it was good to know that she was available if there was an issue of question. We hope to visit the cottage again next year given circumstances. We have both sons getting married in 2017 - one is looking at a Newport wedding! Thank You Kathy for your lovely home and allowing our dogs to vacation with us."Guest: Kayne G.

"No where else can you rent a gorgeous Victorian Jamestown home with views of the Pell bridge, Rose Island Lighthouse, Fort Adams, Kling Stone, Jamestown harbor and the list goes on! Our family spent an amazing week here in June and can't wait to book again for next year! We played bocce in the yard while watching a colorful sunset over the harbor, we walked to Narragansett Cafe for drinks and live jazz music, ate amazing Italian dinner at Simpatico and bought lobsters off the dock from Steve the Lobster Man! We visited breathtaking parks at Fort Wetherill and Beavertail and watched the Newport to Bermuda sailboat race. We also enjoyed delicious wines at nearby Newport and Greenvale Vineyards. Truly an epic vacation. Thanks so much Libby, we can't thank you enough for allowing us the privilege to stay at the Middle Sister!"Guest: Francyne H.

"This property was extremely clean with two upstairs bedrooms and a bathroom, and a very small downstairs space. The host provided 4 sets of clean towels which was much appreciated. Everything in the kitchen/downstairs is miniature. There is a small couch with a table and a couple chairs that overlook a small outdoor patio space. Watch your head when climbing the stairs - anyone over 5'8" is almost guaranteed to hit their head once or twice! Overall, very quaint and simple. Good if you don't plan on spending much time there, just as a "home base" to leave your stuff and explore Newport. Has its own private entrance which is really convenient. Parking is easy - no permit needed, usually spots available in front of the house or at the side. Takes about 10 minutes to walk into the main part of town (and just 5 minutes from other small streets with cafes and shops), making it a great location. Also about a 20 minute walk to where the mansions begin."Guest: Laurel M. Date of Stay: June 2016 Review Submitted: June 30, 2016View listing
"We rented the Inn Bliss for a girl's weekend in August. Nick was very accommodating to our arrival time, as most of our party could not arrive until later in the evening. Each one of us had our own bed, which was nicely made up with sheets, pillow cases and blankets! We also each had a towel set to use for the weekend. We didn't have to pack any linens- it was great! The entire house has AC, which was a pleasant surprise upon our arrival. It definitely made sleeping very comfortable! The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, dishware, etc- everything you could ever need is provided! Upon arrival, Nick showed two of us around the entire house. He made sure we knew how everything worked. He even sat with us and explained a map of the area, suggesting things to do and places to go for the weekend. There was even a plate of home made chocolate chip cookies upon arrival :) There was an issue with the mail delivery and Nick receiving my check. Long story short, my check got lost in the mail, and Nick even covered the $30 stop fee I was charged from my bank! Nick was accessible by phone the entire weekend. We happened to blow a fuse. I texted Nick, and he responded quickly telling me how to fix the problem. Power was restored! Thanks for a great weekend!!"Guest: Jen S.

Luke Walton out with gastroenteritis
Lakers forward Luke Walton did not make the trip with the team to Memphis on Monday because of gastroenteritis.
Walton has only been playing filler minutes for Lakers coach Mike Brown, but the illness cost Walton a chance to return to Memphis, where he spent part of the NBA lockout serving as an assistant coach for the University of Memphis men's basketball team. The Tigers are now preparing for their NCAA tournament game against St. Louis.
Lakers coach Mike Brown wasn't sure if Walton would join the Lakers for the game Wednesday night in New Orleans, the last stop on this two-game trip.
Lakers rookie point guard Darius Morris bruised his left wrist playing for the D-Fenders in the NBA Development League on Saturday. He is listed as day-to-day.

Product Description
Product Description
Research scientists Adam (Kirk Douglas) and Alex (Farrah Fawcett) enjoy an idyllic existence on a remote space station until they are joined by inventor Benson (Harvey Keitel). Determined to create a super-race of robots, Benson manufactures a prototype, Hector, who gradually develops a mind of his own - taking on some of the more unpleasant aspects of his creator's personality in the process. The arrival at the station of the psychotic Captain James proves to be a catalyst for Hector to go on the rampage: but will his developing passion for Alex help or hinder the crew?

The idea isn't a particularly bad one, with Douglas and Fawcett an Adam and Eve (well, Adam and Alex) on a research station on one of Saturn's moons who find themselves with a pair of unwelcome serpents in their Eden in the form of Keitel and a robot helper, Hector.Read more ›
Nice film to kick back to and not bad effects overall. The music is terrific, and the scenes with Hector are ominous and at times terrifying. Saw this on TV in the 80s and loved it then. Returning to it now I can see the plot holes but its a simple idea with 3 people fighting a massive robot on Saturnian spacecraft. Wonderful fun if you can put up with the acting.
Some might say the special effects aren't all that great, well they aren't brilliant, certainly Alien (made a year or two earlier) has much better effects. With Saturn 3 you wish they'd more of an effort on the spaceships for sure. The films ending is also a little flat. But the build up is good. I recommend this film to anyone who likes a simple sci-fi story and of course anyone who likes Farrah Fawcett!
This has two versions one with fully french audio,the other one in english.Picture and sound are watchable.
Saw this at the cinema,i rated it then.Just ok now.B movie entertaining.

Rising student loan interest rates hurt students of color
By Sophia Kerby
Washington, D.C. - On July 1st the interest rate on federally subsidized Stafford Loans will double from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent if Congress doesn't act. Though this hike will have devastating consequences on more than 7 million students who currently hold a Stafford Loan, the change will hit students of color especially hard.
The facts below show how students of color depend on financial aid to finance their college education and how they are uniquely impacted by student debt.
• 1. Students are having trouble paying back their college loans. Studies show that only 37 percent of students are able to repay their loans on time. Students of color are more likely to depend on financial aid to attend college and have higher trends of student debt.
• 2. For the first time, student loan debt has surpassed credit card debt in the United States. Student college loan debt is now higher than all credit card debt in the country put together. Nationwide, student debt is at $867 billion compared to credit card debt at $704 billion.
• 3. People of color, particularly African Americans, are graduating with more student debt. African American students in particular are graduating with much more debt than white students. A 2010 study by the College Board Advocacy & Policy Center found that student loan debt levels of $30,500 or higher were more common among 27 percent of black bachelor's degree recipients compared to 16 percent of their white counterparts.
• 4. Youth unemployment (ages 16 to 24) is higher for people of color, making student debt a significant financial burden. Youth unemployment is highest among youth of color, with rates for African American youth at 30 percent and Latino youth at 20 percent, compared to the white youth unemployment rate of 16 percent.
• 5. Students of color rely on other forms of financial aid, such as Pell Grants, which are also facing significant cuts. Students who will lose eligibility or be cut from the Pell Grant program - a means of access to higher education and social opportunity for low-income families - will likely turn to loans to make up the difference. At a majority of historically black colleges and universities in particular, two-thirds or more of all enrolled students receive Pell Grants, with more than 90 percent of students receiving these grants at eight such institutions of higher learning.
• 6. While educational attainment increases among Latinos, the achievement gap continues. From 2001 to 2011 the number of Latinos with a bachelor's degree or higher education increased 80 percent from 2.1 million to 3.8 million. But there's still an achievement gap: By 2012 only 14 percent of all U.S. Latinos over the age of 25 had bachelor's degrees, compared to 34 percent of whites. A 2009 Pew Hispanic Center survey found the most common reason for the gap was pressure to support their families financially, forcing them to choose between college and their families. This means that low-interest-rate loans are that much more important to Latino youth in completing their college careers.
• 7. More students of color are taking out private loans, exposing them to more financial risk. There was an approximate 16 percent increase and 12 percent increase among black and Hispanic students, respectively, that took out private loans, from the 2003-04 to 2007-08 school years. While federal loans have lower interest rates than private loans, doubling the rate will bring the two closer together, making students of color more vulnerable to defaulting on their loans.
• 8. Students of color are more likely to enroll in for-profit schools, which currently account for nearly half of student loan defaults. For-profit colleges and universities tend to have higher tuition, increased dropout rates, and insurmountable debt for students. This puts economic and academic barriers on students of color, making it more difficult for them to graduate.
• 9. Students of color with higher student debt are left with fewer options. Deferments and forbearances often provide short-term debt relief, but the interest on the loans may accrue and capitalize during the forbearance or deferment period, making the loans more expensive in the long term.
• 10. Student debt hinders students of color from homeownership. Past-due payments hinder borrowers due to lower credit scores and having their wages used for loan repayment. According to the Federal Reserve, fewer young people are getting mortgages - just 9 percent of 29-to-34-year-olds got a first-time mortgage from 2009 to 2011, compared to 17 percent in 2001.
Allowing Stafford Loan interest rates to double would make the cost of college skyrocket - the cost of college for those relying on Stafford Loans would increase by 20 percent. Given that students of color are more likely to rely on financial aid to finance their college education and graduate with higher student debt, increasing these interest rates would disproportionately impact them. We need to focus on making college more affordable, particularly at a time when students need a good education to be competitive in the international economy.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur will return to Montreal on Monday night with a heavy heart.
His father, Denis, bravely fought brain cancer for 19 months, but on Sept. 26 passed away at age 82 after a long battle.
Brodeur had grown accustomed to seeing his father, a renowned photographer working Montreal Canadiens games. Denis had photographed some of the most memorable images in NHL and hockey history.
The 41-year-old goaltender and the Devils will face the Canadiens on Monday night at 7:30 p.m. Brodeur recently spoke to Tom Guiliti of the Record about his father.
"There was a lot of history there for my dad, so it's definitely going to be different than other times that he was alive," Brodeur said. "But that's the way it is. When the puck comes at you, you don't really think about it too much."
Brodeur said he remembers always seeing Denis snapping photos. Denis always kept a close eye on his son.
"He was always sitting in the same spot, so it's going to be a little different," Brodeur told the paper.
As a player, Brodeur played at both The Forum and Bell Center in Montreal.
Through 15 games in the 2013-14 season, Brodeur, who many thought would lose his job to Cory Schneider, is 7-6-2 with a very solid 2.20 goals-against average.

Warner Bros has struggled with its blockbusters of late. But back in summer 1997 - Batman & Robin's year - it faced not dissimilar problems.
Earlier this year it was revealed that Warner Bros, following a string of costly movies that hadn't hit box office gold (Pan, Jupiter Ascending, The Man From U.N.C.L.E., In The Heart Of The Sea), was restructuring its blockbuster movie business. Fewer films, fewer risks, more franchises, and more centering around movie universes seems to be the new approach, and the appointment of a new corporate team to oversee the Harry Potter franchise last week was one part of that.
In some ways, it marks the end of an era. Whilst it retains its relationships with key directing talent (Ben Affleck, Clint Eastwood, Christopher Nolan for instance), Warner Bros was, for the bulk of the 1990s in particular, the studio that the others were trying to mimic. It worked with the same stars and filmmakers time and time again, and under then-chiefs Terry Semel and Robert Daly, relationships with key talent were paramount.
Furthermore, the studio knew to leave that talent to do its job, and was also ahead of the pack in developing franchises that it could rely on to give it a string of hits.
However, whilst Warner Bros is having troubles now, its way of doing business was first seriously challenged by the failure of its slate in the summer of 1997. Once again, it seemed to have a line up to cherish, that others were envious of. But as film by film failed to click, every facet of Warner Bros' blockbuster strategy suddenly came under scrutiny, and would ultimately fairly dramatically change. Just two summers later, the studio released The Matrix, and blockbuster cinema changed again.
But come the start of summer 1997? These are the movies that Warner Bros had lined up, and this is what happened…
February - National Lampoon's Vegas Vacation
Things actually had got off to a decent enough start for the studio earlier in the year, so it's worth kicking off there. It brought Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo back together, for the fourth National Lampoon movie, and the first since 1989's National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Interestingly, it dropped the National Lampoon moniker in the Us, and instead released the eventual movie as Vegas Vacation. It was a belated sequel, back when belated sequels weren't that big a thing.
The film was quickly pulled apart by reviewers, but it still just about clawed a profit. The production budget of $25m was eclipsed by the Us gross of $36m, and the movie would do comfortable business on video/DVD. Not a massive hit, then, but hardly a project that had a sense of foreboding about it.
Yet the problems were not far away.
May – Father's Day
Warner Bros had a mix of movies released in the Us in March and April 1997, including modest Wesley Snipes-headlined thriller Murder At 1600, and family flick Shiloh. But it launched its summer season with Father's Day, an expensive packaged comedy from director Ivan Reitman, starring Robin Williams and Billy Crystal. It had hit written all over it.
Father's Day was one of the movies packaged by the CAA agency, and its then-head, Mike Ovitz (listed regularly by Premiere magazine in the 1990s as one of the most powerful men in Hollywood, if not the most powerful man). That he brought together the stars, the director and the project, gave a studio a price tag, and the studio duly paid it. Given Warner Bros' devotion to star talent (Mel Gibson, then one of the biggest movie stars in the world, and a major Warner Bros talent, was persuaded to film a cameo), it was a natural home for the film. It quickly did the deal. few questions asked.
That package, and CAA's fees for putting it together, brought the budget for a fairly straightforward comedy to a then-staggering $85m. The problem, though, was that the film simply wasn't very good. It's one of those projects that looks great on paper, less great when exposed on a great big screen. Warner Bros has snapped it up, without - it seems - even properly reading the script.
Premiere magazine quoted a Warner Bros insider back in November 1997 as saying "when [CAA] calls and says 'we have a package, Father's Day, with Williams and Crystal and Reitman, we say 'great'", adding "we don't scrutinise the production. When we saw the movie, it took the wind out of us. We kept reshooting and enhancing, but you can't fix something that's bad".
And it was bad.
The movie would prove to be the first big misfire of the summer, grossing just $35m in the Us, and not adding a fat lot more elsewhere in the world. Warner Bros' first film of the summer was a certified flop. More would soon follow.
May - Addicted To Love
A more modestly priced project was Addicted To Love, a romantic comedy starring Meg Ryan and Matthew Broderick. Just over a year later, Warner Bros would hit big when Meg Ryan reunited with Tom Hanks for Nora Ephron's You've Got Mail. But here? The film was a modest success, at best.
Directed by Griffin Dunne (making his directorial debut), and put together in partnership with Miramax, Addicted To Love was based around the Robert Palmer song of the same name. But whilst it was sold as a romcom, the muddled final cut was actually a fair bit darker. There was an underlying nastiness to some moments in the film, and when the final box office was tallied, it came in lower than the usual returns for pictures from Ryan or Broderick. Counter-programming it against the release of The Lost World: Jurassic Park didn't massively help in this instance either, especially as the Jurassic Park sequel would smash opening weekend records.
Addicted To Love ended up with $34.6m at the Us box office. It would eke out a small profit.
June - Batman & Robin
And this is when the alarm bells started to ring very, very loudly. Summer 1997 was supposed to be about a trio of sure-fire hit sequels: Batman 4, Jurassic Park 2 and Speed 2. Only one of those would ultimately bring home the box office bacon, the others being destroyed by critics, and ultimately leaving far more empty seats than anticipated in multiplexes.
Batman & Robin, it's easy to forget, came off the back of 1995's Joel Schumacher-steered Batman reboot, Batman Forever that year's biggest movie). It had one of the fastest-growing stars in the world in the Batsuit (George Clooney), and the McDonald's deals were signed even before the script was typed up. You don't need us to tell you that you could tell, something of a theme already in Warner Bros' summer of '97.
That said, Batman & Robin still gave Warner Bros a big opening, but in the infancy of the internet as we know it, poisonous word of mouth was already beginning to spread. The film's negative cost Warner Bros up to $140m, before marketing and distribution costs, and it opened in the Us to a hardly-sniffy $42m of business (although that was down from previous Batman movies).
But that word of mouth still accelerated its departure from cinemas. It was then very rare for a film to make over 40% of its Us gross in its first weekend. But that's just what Batman & Robin did, taking $107.3m in America, part of a worldwide total of $238.2m. This was the worst return for a Batman movie to date, and Warner Bros had to swiftly put the brakes on plans to get Batman Triumphant moving.
It would be eight years until Batman returned to the big screen, in Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins. Warner Bros would undergo big changes in the intervening period.
As for the immediate aftermath of Batman & Robin? Warner Bros co-chief Robert Daly would note at the end of '97 that "we'd have been better off with more action in the picture. The movie had to service too many characters", adding that "the next Batman we do, in three years – and we have a deal with George Clooney to do it – will have one villain".
Fortunately, Warner Bros' one solid hit of the summer was just around the corner…
July - Contact
And breathe out.
Warner Bros bet heavily again on expensive talent here, with Robert Zemeckis bringing his adaptation of Carl Sagan's Contact to the studio for his first film post-Forrest Gump. Warner Bros duly footed the $90m bill (back when that was still seen as a lot of money for a movie), a good chunk of which went to Jodie Foster. It invested heavily in special effects, and gave Zemeckis licence to make the film that he wanted.
The studio was rewarded with the most intelligent and arguably the best blockbuster of the summer. I've looked back at Contact in a lot more detail here, and it remains a fascinating film that's stood the test of time (and arguably influenced Christopher Nolan's more recent Interstellar).
Reviews were strong, it looked terrific, and the initial box office was good.
But then the problem hit. For whilst Contact was a solid hit for Warner Bros, it wasn't a massively profitable one. Had Father's Day and Batman & Robin shouldered the box office load there were supposed to, it perhaps wouldn't have been a problem. But when they failed to take off, the pressure shifted to Contact.
The movie would gross $100.9m in the Us, and add another $70m overseas (this being an era were international box office rarely had the importance it has today). But once Warner Bros had paid its bills, there wasn't a fat lot over for itself. Fortunately, the film still sells on disc and on-demand. Yet it wasn't to be the massive hit the studio needed back in 1997.
July - One Eight Seven
From director Kevin Reynolds, the man who helmed Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves and Waterworld, came modestly-priced drama 187, starring Samuel L Jackson (in a strong performance). Warner Bros wouldn't have had massive box office expectations for the film (although it can't have been unaware that the inspirational teacher sub-genre was always worth a few quid), and it shared production duties on the $20m movie with Mel Gibson's Icon Productions. But still, it would have had its eye on a modest success. What it got in return was red ink.
The film's not a bad one, and certainly worth seeking out. But poor reviews gave the film an uphill struggle from the off – smaller productions arriving mid-summer really needed critics on their side, as they arguably still do – and it opened to just $2.2m of business (the less edgy, Michelle Pfeiffer-headlined school drama Dangerous Minds had been a surprise hit not two years before).
By the time its run was done, 187 hadn't even come close to covering its production costs, with just under $6m banked.
Warner Bros' summer slate was running out of films. But at least it had one of its most reliable movie stars around the corner…
August - Conspiracy Theory
What could go wrong? Mel Gibson and Julia Roberts were two of the biggest movie stars in the world in 1997, at a time when movie stars still equated to box office gold. Director Richard Donner, one of Warner Bros' favourite directors, had delivered the Lethal Weapons, Maverick, Superman, The Goonies and more for the studio. Put them altogether, with Patrick Stewart (coming to wider public consciousness at the time off the back of his Star Trek: The Next Generation work) as a villain, and it should have been a big hit.
Conspiracy Theory proved to be one of the more ambitious summer blockbusters of the era. It lacks a good first act, which would be really useful in actually setting up more of what's going on. But Gibson played an edgy cab driver who believes in deep government conspiracies, and finds himself getting closer to the truth than those around him sometimes give him credit for.
Warner Bros was probably expecting another Lethal Weapon with the reunion of Gibson (who had to be persuaded to take Conspiracy Theory on) and Donner (it's pretty much what it got with the hugely enjoyable Maverick a few years' earlier), but instead it got a darker drama, with an uneasy central character that didn't exactly play to the summer box office crowd.
The bigger problem, though, was that the film never quite worked as well as you might hope. Yet star power did have advantages. While no juggernaut, the film did decent business, grossing $137m worldwide off the back of an $80m budget ($40m of which was spent on the salaries for the talent before a single roll of film was loaded into a camera). That said, in the Us it knocked a genuine smash hit, Air Force One, off the top spot. Mind you in hindsight, that was probably the film that the studio wished it had made (the cockpit set of Warner Bros' own Executive Decision was repurposed for Air Force One, fact fans).
Still: Warner Bros did get Lethal Weapon 4 off Gibson and Donner a year later…
August - Free Willy 3: The Rescue
Warner Bros opened its third Free Willy film on the same day as Conspiracy Theory (can you imagine a studio opening two big films on the same day now), but it was clear that this was a franchise long past its best days (and its best days hardly bring back the fondest of memories).
Still, Free Willy movies were relatively modest in cost to put together, and Warner Bros presumably felt this was a simple cashpoint project. But in a year when lots of family movies did less business than expected (Disney's Hercules, Fox's Home Alone 3, Disney's Mr Magoo), Free Willy 3 barely troubled the box office. It took in just over $3m in total, and Willy would not be seen on the inside of a cinema again.
August - Steel
Not much was expected from Steel, a superhero movie headlined by Shaquille O'Neal. Which was fortunate, because not much was had.
It had a mid-August release date in the Us, at a point when a mid-August release date was more of a dumping ground than anything else. And even though the budget was set at a relatively low $16m, the film – and it's an overused time – pretty much bombed. It took $1.7m at the Us box office, and given that its appeal hinged on a major American sports star whose fame hardly transcended the globe, its international takings did not save it (it went straight to video in many territories).
It was a miserable end to what, for warner bros, had been a thoroughly miserable summer.
So what did hit big in summer 1997?
Summer 1997 was infamous for big films failing to take off in the way that had been expected – Hercules, Speed 2, and the aforementioned Warner Bros movies – but there were several bright spots. The big winner would be Barry Sonnenfeld's light and sprightly sci-fi comedy Men In Black, starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones. Star power too helped score big hits for Harrison Ford (Air Force One), Julia Roberts (My Best Friend's Wedding) and John Travolta (Face/Off).
This was also the summer that Nicolas Cage cemented his action movie credentials with Face/Off and Con Air. Crucially, though, the star movies that hit were the ones that veered on the side of 'good'. For the first of many years, the internet was blamed for this.
Oh, and later in the year, incidentally, Titanic would redefine just what constituted a box office hit...
What came next for Warner Bros?
In the rest of 1997, Warner Bros had a mix of projects that again enjoyed mixed fortunes. The standout was Curtis Hanson's stunning adaptation of L.A. Confidential, that also proved to be a surprise box office success. The Devil's Advocate didn't do too badly either.
However, two of the studio's key filmmakers failed to really deliver come the end of 1997. Clint Eastwood's Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil failed to ignite (although many felt he was always on a hiding to nothing in trying to adapt that for the screen), and Kevin Costner's The Postman would prove arguably the most expensive box office disappointment of the year. No wonder the studio rushed Lethal Weapon 4 into production for summer 1998. Oh, and it had The Avengers underway too (not that one), that would prove to be a 1998 disappointment.
The studio would eventually take action. The Daly-Semel management team, that had reigned for 15 years, would break up at the end of 1999, as its traditional way of doing business became less successful. The pair had already future projects that were director driven to an extent (Eyes Wide Shut), and it would still invest in movies with stars (Wild Wild West). But the immediate plan of action following the disappointment of summer 1997 – to get Batman 5 and Superman Lives made – would falter. It wouldn't be until 1999's The Matrix (a film that Daly and Semel struggled to get) and – crucially – 2001's Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone that the studio would really get its swagger back...

What's this? A new horror anthology centered around a myriad of holidays and helmed by some cats I really dig (I mean, c'mon; look at that list of die-rectors up there)? You know, normally I'd make some ridiculous pun alluding to the quality or lack thereof of whatever film was at hand, and this time I think I'll do that, too.

Doris Roberts, who played Ray Ramano's mother on "Everybody Loves Raymond," has died. She was 90.
TMZ was the first to report the news Monday, writing that Roberts died Sunday afternoon in Los Angeles. Her cause of death has not yet been revealed.
Though Roberts starred in movies like "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" and "Madea's Witness Protection," she was best known for her television work. In her lifetime, Roberts won four Emmy awards for her work on "Everybody Loves Raymond" and one for "St. Elsewhere."
Roberts continued working until very close to her death, with her last credit being "The Red Maple Leaf," slated for a 2016 release.

Melissa McCarthy's new comedy, The Boss, arrives in theaters on Friday. Given McCarthy's string of box office successes, the movie seems primed to be a hit. And we're stoked too, but the premise of the film has us recalling another female-led comedy: The 1989 Shelley Long cult hit Troop Beverly Hills. Both films focus on women of means who enjoy living the high life but who have also been humbled in some way - The Boss's Michelle Darnell being sent to prison, and Troop's Phyllis Nefler facing an impending divorce.

Last weekend, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice illustrated a longstanding truth: More often than not, reviews don't make or break a movie. A given motion picture can receive fawning praise from the top critics in the country and audiences may skip it. The same movie could just as easily get negative reviews and audiences can politely ignore them. Case in point: BvS made more than $166 million domestically during its opening weekend even though it currently has a 28 percent "fresh" rating on the movie review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes. This isn't news, of course. More than a few summer blockbusters »

Before movies like "Say Anything" and "Perks of Being a Wallflower," and TV shows like "Dawson's Creek" and "My So Called Life," John Hughes' classic high school romance "Pretty in Pink" dared to depict teenage love with a poignancy and truthfulness that felt both natural and wildly sentimental. Released on February 28, 1986, it remains one of Hughes' most beloved movies. On the 30th anniversary of "Pretty in Pink," here's a look back at John Hughes' 10 finest films, plus five that didn't quite make the grade.

In "It's a Start" (June 2008), Donald Shriver Jr. rightly addresses the issue of slavery and the need to go beyond apologies. He refers to the "scandalously high number—about 38 percent" of prisoners who are African American. But he does not address the reality of slavery in that setting.
A simple Google search of "private prisons" will point out the huge profits, per head, that private prisons can and do make as they "hold" the overflows from government prisons. As a correctional health nurse, I was very troubled by the totally disproportionate numbers, based on the demographics of our city, of African Americans being "processed" in the screening area in which I worked. Many of these will then become a source of income for organizations that operate private prisons. Slavery? Undoubtedly. Who can and will address this aspect of going beyond apologies?

The May 2008 issue on "Putting Your Money Where Your Heart Is" suggests many fine ways of doing just that. However, investing in tax-free municipal bonds was not mentioned. Our latest purchase was to help finance a school in Lewiston, Maine, where there is a burgeoning community of refugees from Somalia.
Growing weary of "praying for peace and paying for war," we quit our jobs in the Philadelphia area and moved to northern Maine in 1982. A fellow Quaker showed us the ropes about investing in life-enhancing municipal projects that help Americans. The interest on these bonds is not taxable by the federal government.
Instead of paying federal taxes—which most years we do not owe or, if so, owe very little—we have our own foreign and domestic giving programs. High on our list are local food banks, the Salvation Army fuel fund, Vietnamese humanitarian aid projects, and peace and justice organizations. Meanwhile, for more than 20 years we have had time to be active volunteers in our community at long-term elderly and child care centers. We sleep better at night, too.

It is encouraging to hear how the new generation is approaching religion ("Making Their Mark," June 2008). They seem to want authentic religious experience and service. They also seem to distrust traditional churches and their rituals and practices and have found their own way.
I only hope they do not thoroughly disregard the centuries of faith and meaning people have found in the various churches. We, the older generation, need young people. We do not ask them to follow what has been meaningful to us, but that they help us refind and remake our own faith. We can only pray and support what a new generation will bring to our churches.

[Regarding "Being There," by Jim Rice, March 2008], I met Brother Andrew when I was a recent "Jesus Freak" convert in 1971. I have seldom been impressed by a popular Christian author as I was by him. He was a normal person with a sense of humor. A few years later my wife and I sent him some money for his ministry. We were shocked when he sent back a personal note thanking us. He explained that our donation came on the same day he had met an Eastern Bloc couple who needed money. We have never experienced such a thing in our giving to well-known Christian figures.

Jim Wallis' "The Politics of Change" (March 2008) so effectively probed the possibility of real political change given the "vast array of powerful forces that will do everything possible to prevent real change."
This analysis stood in contrast to E.J. Dionne Jr.'s article in the same issue, which asked, "Is It Still a Wonderful Life?" His seemingly sanguine conclusion is that Americans are at heart so noble (like George Bailey) that if we come together around a "new democratic solidarity" and embrace George Bailey's politics, we would transform the nation. Dionne offers oppressed Poland as an example of how a coalition weakened the grip of Soviet domination. That illustration is irrelevant in that in Poland everyone knew who the enemy was. In our case, a "vast array of powerful forces" pose as protectors and providers who assure us that we have never had it so good and that with them we are secure, yet all the while they resist meaningful change.
Wallis is right when he says that "the change must go deeper than politics" and that "unless change goes deeper, politics won't really change." Every one of the presidential candidates is offering to do the same old thing, only better. Deep and real change is not on their agenda.

Defense Strategies
Jim Wallis' article "A Call to Repentance" (January 2008) speaks directly and powerfully to an issue that is incredibly important for American Christians to come to terms with. I would also like to add a concrete example of the fact that "generous leadership to combat poverty and disease, for example, might be a more effective way to make friends in the world."
Several years ago our church sponsored a mission trip to Costa Rica. Eighteen people went to a small village to teach children and paint buildings. We slept on a concrete floor and visited the sick. These people were clearly moved that Caucasians from the richest country in the world would come to their impoverished village and do this work. We made many friends and certainly helped all of us to be more secure in the world.
This trip wasn't unusual as mission trips go, but what we often forget to look at are the economics of these ventures. This trip cost us $14,000. What if we used our current average defense budget to sponsor such service trips? $450 billion pays for 32 million trips. This is enough for millions of Americans to visit every country on earth thousands of times every year.
Imagine what such an outpouring of service, compassion, and mutual understanding would do for our world. This would buy security for all.

It is highly misleading to say anyone can subscribe to Sojourners "risk-free" [as it says on subscription materials]. After many years of reading Sojourners, I now am compelled to visit the far reaches of the globe to try to bring about the kingdom of God through child survival projects and other efforts. I have run the risk of being kidnapped, and I have been mugged and publicly ridiculed for my faith. It has been anything but risk-free. Next time I suggest you publish a full disclosure concerning the risk of reading your highly edifying, highly motivating, but incredibly risky magazine.

I just read Ed Spivey Jr.'s piece about his first public recital ("Seriously, Is This What Hell is Like? December 2007), and I have to say it was inspired. I haven't laughed so much in a very long time, as there isn't much to laugh about in this world, but he described his hellish ordeal so well I think he had to be moved spiritually to write it.
For one thing, I never saw "Tchyeah" spelled out, and it should become part of any new publication of American slang dictionaries. For another, when he approached the podium and described it this way—"I'm pretty sure I heard someone whisper 'dead man walking' as I passed by"—I actually laughed out loud, and I haven't done that much lately.
So, what I plan to do is try to find Concerto No. 5 by Friedrich Seitz, the demented German composer, and if there are any CDs out there, to buy and play it so I know what trying to play it on the violin is like. And I'd like Ed to know that I suffered a similar fate in my first piano recital, when I had to play some piece from Madam Butterfly, I think, because it's all a blur. I have rarely touched the keyboard since, but I would like to, probably for the same reason Ed would like to play the violin. I love music.

To your rich November 2007 special issue, "Telling Stories," on books and theater, I'd like to add a brief but, to me, significant emendation. In "Dramatic Faith," James Martin, SJ, writes that "the whole of the liturgical year … can be seen as a kind of extended drama." Yes, but he also says that the liturgical year ends with Jesus' passion, death, and resurrection. This leaves out those important times of Pentecost and Kingdomtide. The former is traditionally understood as the beginning of the church and the latter is that long time that we have to live out the Christian life. The liturgical year never ends, but is an ever-renewable cycle without a break. It is a frame for creating and telling our stories.

Your magazine just brought me to tears. I was standing in front of the magazine display in the library of Montrose, Colorado, when I happened to see your latest issue. I didn't even know you existed. The article "The Stories We Tell Ourselves" (by Brian McLaren, November 2007) is so right on. To me it is incomprehensible and enraging that anyone calling themselves Christian can be so blind as to support imperialistic, militaristic endeavors again and again, always turning the blind eye. My assumption is that Jesus would be, and perhaps is, outraged.
Your position is that there is hope. Personally, I am not so sure there is hope for humanity, which seems always to construct governing systems that extract wealth from the many and transfer it to the few, most often using religion to obscure and distract and to placate the people with concepts that they are "doing good works." Soup kitchens are great, building orphanages is great, etc., but the real question should/must be: How is it that there are so many poor? How is it that there are so many imprisoned? How is it that things are so screwed up?

Product Description
Dr. Paul, an expert in pediatrics, has written a ground-breaking book about the importance of childhood/infant health in preventing illness and ensuring wellness later on in life. An accessible and valuable resource for doctors, psychiatrists, paramedics and parents around the world, this book should be used by organizations to further global initiatives relating to pediatric health on the international stage, the main specialized bodies of the United Nations, UNICEF and WHO in particular. If you are one of the believers of my own quote on this very subject: "A SOUND MIND COULD ONLY BE FOUND IN A SOUND BODY", then I strongly recommend that you should carefully read and digest this innovative book by Dr. Paul accordingly.(Ambassador Dr. Waheed Waheedullah Testimonial)

Unlike most baby care books, expert pediatrician and health communicator DR. PAUL Roumeliotis takes a unique approach by emphasizing what scientific advances have confirmed-that what happens early on in life affects one's overall health decades down the road. Baby Comes Home communicates the latest science that explains how positive or negative early childhood experiences can have lifelong consequences.
The book begins by describing the vital changes that occur in a baby's brain during the first 18 months. It then explores the new "Science of TLC," that shows how tender, loving, and caring relationships with babies help to positively shape their brains. The book then presents important practical information on safety in the home and outdoors, baby routines/patterns, immunizations, injury prevention, nutrition, and more.
To complete this useful guide, DR.PAUL also reviews common baby care issues and concerns as well as illnesses and conditions commonly seen during the first few years of life. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, daycare teacher or child caregiver, this book is an excellent reference resource for your baby's current and future health, wellness and prosperity.

Even in the seven years since having my first, so much has changed and new information is learned every day in the world of baby. Baby Comes Home by Dr. Paul explores the baby's first eighteen months in a truly unique way.
I really like the way this book was written, more like a conversation than a textbook like so many baby books are. It just reads in terms that are normal and simple without overcomplicating things. I actually thought much of it was common sense but some people have limited or even no experience with babies before becoming parents themselves. This will literally tell them everything they need to know.
While a lot of it was what I already knew when it came to the basics like care and feeding of newborns, there were a few sections that were of particular interest to me as a third time parent like common illnesses and conditions. Jax has been a lot sicker than my first two ever were. This section goes through all the illnesses they are likely to get in their first year and a half with descriptions of each.
The other sections I really liked were on growth and development. I can't remember what age my other two did certain milestones or what Jax should be doing by thirteen months. It's nice to read and know where he's on track and areas that I should be working with him.
I would say that Dr. Paul is a little bit old school in his approach and I like that!Read more ›
I ran a day-care with two other people in a centre that provided structured learning and social development opportunities for children from two (2) to four (4) years of age. My specialty was with babies from the age of one to eighteen months.
I wish I had this reference book back in the day when I ran my daycare. Having read both The Secret Life of the Unborn Child by T. Verny and What to Expect When You're Expecting , I found that Baby Comes Home values the importance of the pregnancy similar to The Unborn Child and gives proven facts and information necessary for the baby's first eighteen months and more than prepares any parent and/or caregiver. I highly recommend this book as it is a fascinating, well documented, reference guide where, if it concern's a baby's first two years, you'll find the answers to all your questions.
I enjoyed reading Baby Comes Home because there's so much useful information even for parent's of children older than 18 months, like me. Some things I already knew but I did learn a lot of new things from this book. I loved Dr. Pauls writing style because he kept it short and simple and to the point. It was easy to understand. This is a great book for anyone with children or that takes care of children. I give this book 5 stars.
I received a free book to review.

Exact Sciences posts smaller quarterly loss
Exact Sciences Corp., a Madison company preparing to bring to market a DNA-based, noninvasive colon cancer screening test, reported a smaller loss in the second quarter.
The company said its loss narrowed to $19.4 million, or 24 cents a share, from $35.5 million, or 46 cents, a year earlier. Exact had no revenue, compared to $1 million a year ago, because license fee payments from Genzyme Corp. ended, which it had been amortizing over five years.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration completed an inspection at Exact with no findings, and the company has made a reimbursement proposal to Medicare and hired an 80-person direct sales force in preparation for bringing its first product to market, said Kevin Conroy, Exact's chairman and chief executive officer.
"We are pleased with our launch readiness and look forward to working with physicians and patients, pending FDA approval, to improve colon cancer screening," Conroy said in a statement.
Exact's test, called Cologuard, would be used as a screening test. Patients with positive results would be asked to undergo a colonoscopy. The company will begin selling Cologuard when it receives FDA approval, which it expects within 30 to 45 days, Conroy said on a conference call with analysts.
Cologuard, which requires users to submit a stool sample, can detect early-stage cancer better than other noninvasive approaches, according to a study published online in March by the New England Journal of Medicine. In the study, which involved nearly 13,000 subjects at multiple testing sites, Cologuard detected 92% of cancers and 42% of advanced precancerous lesions.

Sir, quite honestly I'm starting to wonder if BF Man's face is really burnt. I believe that it is make-up. He is piss lips because he doesn't stand up for himself. I'd tell him to bugger off if I ever saw him. One time I thought I saw a super hero but it was just a rather large man eating a tub of ice cream. But he was eating it fast.

New York Giants wide receiver Hakeem Nicks appears very unlikely to take the field against the New England Patriots Sunday at Gillette Stadium. When a player starts saying things like, "you have to be smart about it," it's a clear indication he's not going to be able to get on the field as quickly as he wants to, the New York Post reported Friday. "My mentality is I always like to bounce back pretty quick from injuries, but this is something you got to be smart about," Nicks said Thursday. "We got a long season ahead of us so I don't want to [make it worse.] If I had to sit one week and come back the following week, I'd rather take that than trying to play this one week and being out for a while. I just got to be smart about the whole situation." Nicks came out of last week's victory over the Miami Dolphins with a slightly strained right hamstring. The good news for Nicks is that the strain is in the middle of the hamstring and not higher up, which is more damaging. The bad news...

A very warm welcome back to all our loyal customers and contributors to our threads - we are picking up where we left off with StyleForum and look forward to a great union for the foreseeable future.
We have been working hard on continually improving our site and service, with brand new "Fine" products including a comprehensive range of La Cordonnerie Anglaise shoe care kits and brushes, enlarged our Saphir range to one of the largest on the internet and lots of interesting projects in store over the coming months.
Our shoe brands Alfred Sargent and Sanders have also been continually gaining acclaim and support from new and previous customers.
We also have a brand new review functionality for all our products and services from only verified buyers, so you know the reviews are honest and accurate.
We also have been working hard on both our Instagram feed, that is updated daily with all our own pictures, and our Facebook page.
And to top this off, we still are able to ship next day into US & Canada (if orders are received before 11am GMT) for all shoes and boots.
If there is anything we can assist you with with, drop us a PM or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com
