: Everyone who would like to discuss about FMA-1: CoS movie content, hope to see your posts on
You Opinions and Emotions After Watching the movie, let's talk about FMA-1 CoS movie here!
thread and other discussion threads in this forum! :D
Phew. Okay, now I can type the summary out like a normal person instead of fumbling with the phone.
The movie was great overall (a few weak points here and there) but it really is a treat for loyal fans to the series. : ) It's in the details that fans will find delight in, so I truly recommend you to skip the spoilers and await the movie so you can have as much fun as I did throughout the show.
* Note: The sequence of events switching from the real world and the Hagaren world, I might've mixed up a bit... too many switches within the movie itself eh
Also, STOP asking WHEN the movie will be SUBBED. We've been asked this a gazillion times and this is not a fansub forum!
. For the 1986753897685682th time it will be fansubbed when the DVDs come out in Japan (about half a year after the movie's release) so DON'T ASK anymore PLEASE.
We start off with a Alphonse Elric talking to the masked guy in a factory (Alphonse is in his armor form). The masked guy wants to sell / promote this little bomb he devised to the 'National Alchemist', but Alphonse is disgusted at the idea of it and Edward Elric soon arrives and it turns into a grand fight where masked man ends up using human alchemy to try and do something with a heap of dead bodies. Ed tries to stop him from performing the taboo, but it's too late. He gets sucked into the Gate (together with his bomb) and the vaporous castle they were in collasps. It's then revealed that the Ed and Al of that time were 15 and 14 respectively.
Ed is telling a laughing Alphonse Heiderich that tale while driving. He crashes the car in a ditch (lol) and they end up hitching a ride to their destination with a truckload of gypsys. One of them, Noah seems to be a little bit of an outcast, and she 'sees' things when she makes physical contact with Ed. Ed and Alphonse head to what looks like a carnival. There, Alphonse's pals (Alter!half-chimera gang minus Greed and snake-woman) and him set up a small rocket. Ed is uninterested and goes to rest in the truck. Meanwhile Noah is turned in to the Thule Society that wants to 'buy' her services. She flees, and Ed helps her escape.
He lets Noah stay at the place Alphonse and himself are renting. Apparently Gypsys are despised and hated as loose women who cheat men of their money because they don't have their own country, also snitching the jobs of others. Here we find out that Alter!Hughes (who I didn't pick up a name from, just 'omawari-san' meaning 'Mr Policeman') is one of those who is suspicious of Noah, and Ed makes fun of him to try 'proposing' to the landlady Gracia. Elsewhere the Thule Society starts getting ready for some decisive action...
Meanwhile in the Hagaren world, Winry talks to Sig who says Al went out on his own seeking Ed out. Izumi had taught him everything she knew. We see Al, walking in the middle of a desert, at his last drop of water from his tumbler. He claps both hands together and conjures a well (in the middle of a sand dune) that gushes water out (overkill! O_O). Then we see Winry paying a visit to Izumi's grave (the audience was O_O at that scene) where she finds Wrath nearby in a pathetic state, and offers to fix his battered-up automail. Somewhere else snowy, Havoc & Breda arrive at a small outpost (more like hut) looking for their 'Colonel', who's looking extremely pathetic standing a pile of snow at attention. Inside, he talks to his former subordinates as a lesser officer and even uses a MATCH to light Havoc's cigeratte, stating he hasn't used alchemy since the Bradley incident because it reminds him of his foolish actions (or the like, I don't remember). Havoc and Breda leave and sigh that they initially wanted to persuade Mustang back, but he seems set on staying a guard in the cruel cold. Armstrong's family is in Liol, trying to get the place back on its feet (haha, Armstrong's all sparkly as usual).
Back in the real world Ed and Noah are having lunch when a car drives by and Ed spots Bradley. He pursues the man and knocks his driver out, demanding to know why a Homoculus is still in this world. Bradley is confused. He turns out a regular human, Alter!Bradley, otherwise known as Mabuse, a movie maker. He leads Ed to a castle (well Ed knocked his driver out so had to drive Mabuse there) where he says he's being gone after by a 'dragon'. Rather, a large snake. Ed goes up the tower, half decided on getting outta there when he realizes the threat is real, looking at the damage done to the interior. He's shocked when a very, VERY familiar voice calls his name, and out bursts the green serpent we last saw Envy transform into before diving into the Gate. Serpent!Envy tries to devour Ed, but is attacked at all sides by the Thule Society with gun-mounted planes and stakes (>_< NOOO!!! ENVY!!!!!). The Thule Society's leader, Dietlinde Eckart has Ed held and is somewhat surprised to learn his name, then has someone knock him out with some gas. Serpent!Envy is taken away by planes.
The Thule Society uses Envy as part of their little 'magical circle' and try to get a link to the 'other world'. Envy's head launches to what little we can make out as Hohenheim. Light envelops the place and some people within armors (a lot of variations including the type Alphonse's spirit was trapped in) are transported to the other world.
Liol is suddenly invaded and attacked by the armored warriors. Most civilians are helpless but along comes Al, who transfers a part of his soul into the armors and makes them fight for him. He then alchemizes a tornado to sweep up the remaining armors.
Back in the Thule Society's lair, the armors return due to the 'magic circle' being incomplete. They're all dead, and Ed turns up to interrupt the party. He's shot at, so dives into the heap o armors, suddenly hearing one of them speak in Al's voice. It is an armor that is the exact model he forced his brother's spirit into years go, speaking to him. They fight their way out and talk by a river. Because Al has transferred part of his spirit into the armors, he can communicate with Ed now, but eventually he fades away, leaving Ed alone.
Ed returns to his room. Alphonse and Noah realize he's a little more cheerful than usual. Ed says he may have found a way back. A short while later Alphonse is looked up by a member of the Thule Society wanting to employ his services. That member also talks to Noah for a bit, all this going on without Ed knowing
Back in the Hagaren world, Al is happy at having met Ed at long last. He goes to Central to find some answers. Roy has heard of the invasion and heads to Central too. Winry too, heads there.
Ed meets Bradley again, who talks about the upcoming war and all (during which Alter!Lyla appears for a bit, snobbishly ignoring Ed). Ed decides to intervene with Thule Society's plans. He goes back home and tries to persuade Alphonse to stop helping the Thule Society because his research will only help with the war. Alphonse will have none of it and knocks Ed aside, then coughs blood out (TB?!) claiming that he just wants to leave a mark in this world, HIS world. He leaves.
Hagaren world. Roy is paying a visit to Hughes' grave. Wrath finds Al and leads him to that underground city (when asked why? Wrath just replies something like, 'It don't matter anymore'). Al tries to create a link to our world there, but something is lacking and he doesn't know what. Then a strange grey monstrosity appears. Gluttony, looking very big, ugly and undoubtably hungry. It attacks Wrath, who doesn't actually stand much of a chance until he eats a bit of the 'red stones' leaking from Gluttony. He kinda powers up and rips off a few .... apendages from Gluttony but is overpowered anyway. He finally lands on the Alchemy circle Al just made and rams the automail arm into the middle of it, driving it into rock firmly. Gluttony has, by that time managed to close his large, uncaring jaws upon the younger-looking Homoculus. His blood soaks the ground and Wrath yells to Al to use them both (Gluttony and him) as the exchange to open the Gate to that other world. Al hesitates a bit, but does it when Wrath says it's what he brought Al there for. We then see Wrath looking quite human (um, naked) standing in front of the Gate. It opens and there stands Izumi who welcomes him into her arms, then they disappear. Meanwhile, Winry and Scieszka walk to Hughes' grave to find a bunch of white flowers there already. They think it might've been Gracia and Elisia.
Our world. Ed is back at the Thule Society's lair. He inspects the 'magic circle' and dismisses it as child's play at first until realizing it's an alchemy one. Being the alchemist he is, he completes it. Then wondering what he's doing, touches it with his hands & gloves stained with his blood (he cut himself on some glass while creeping into the place), and the whole thing lights up. He stops in horror, then the Thule Society people come out and persuade him to carry on. He looks up at one point at Envy, and sees Hohenheim in the serpent's jaws, STILL alive. Apparently that was the only way the Thule could get the serpent to calm down. Hohenheim wants his son to return to his world, and closes the serpents jaws upon himself, going in a huge fountain of blood (I never knew a human had that much in him) with Ed screaming. The Thule are happy they're getting what they want. Noah is there to do their bidding; she remembers Alchemy circles from Ed's memory and is helping them because she wants to go to Ed's world (what they all call 'Shambala') because she faces so much persecution in this one. Having no more use for Ed, Dietlinde shoots him (THE b*tch!)(*&$()!^). Fortunately she only hit his mechanical arm and he only passed out to be strapped into the seat of an aircraft Alphonse has made while working for the Thule. Alphonse wants Ed to be happy, to go back to where he came from, so in the midst of the Thule sending off crafts and crafts of their armored warriors into the opened portal leading to 'Shamabala', he sends Ed (who's not all that willing to leave Alphonse behind) on his way. Sadly after Ed leaves, a Thule member who witnessed the deed, shoots Alphonse (-_-;). Noah is going, "TAKE ME WITH YOU!" as she sees Ed head into the portal, but he leaves without her.
Hagaren world. Well, the Thule crafts have somehow managed to break from of those lil black arms thingies (within the Gate) and have burst right out through Al's Alchemy circle. He's not sure what to think of it at first. Winry and Schiezka were creeping through some tunnel when it collasps under the impact of Thule's crafts wrecking havoc in the underground city and they find Al. A smaller craft comes through and crashes at a site near them, and when the smoke clears they find Ed on the ground whincing. Winry runs up and goes, "And just where have you been?" (awwwww) It suddenly dawns upon Al what terrible things are pouring out of the portal and he runs off in shock. Ed tries to follow but his mechanical leg is mangled beyond repair. This is when Winry smiles and opens that large briefcase she's been carrying all the while. It's Ed's automail limbs. She knows roughly how much he's grown and starts to get to work fixing them back on him.
Central is under attack. People are getting shot down by the armored warriors of the Thule and the millitary isn't holding up too well. While Hawkeye's sharpshooting through the armor's breathing holes does take a few down, they are too great in numbers. Even when Armstrong arrives to help they are still fighting a losing battle. This is when Roy Mustang makes his grans re-entrance into the scene. He well... blows them up and barks out commands to his subordinates (Breda, Hawkeye, Fury and that guy who used to be under Hughes) like in the old days when he was a Colonel. Though he's a corporal, his subordinates still call him Colonel and follow his command (:D). Hawkeye remains after the others have gone off, remaining in a salute while smiling to Roy.
Al is roaming the town getting more desperate at the terror he unleashed. He nearly even tries to resurrect a child crushed by debris before being stopped by Ed who reminds him of the taboo. 'You only wanted to bring me home.' But nonetheless, this war is their fault and they ahve to stop it.
War scene gets real grand and fun with Roy, Al and Ed fighting together against a borderline Dietlinde, who has deemed the inhabitants of 'Shamabala' (the Hagaren world) not fit to live since they aren't the same as she is (she doesn't even think them human). Ed and her are matched evenly in a one-on-one fight but she calls on more of her armored fighters to corner him. Fortunately Al had taken control of them (by transferring part of his soul into them) and they beat Dietlinde.
Ed knows the war will continue unless he goes BACK to the other world to destroy the Alchemy circle allowing the Thule access to their world. He separates himself from Al and Roy, and goes back (poor Al is crying at this). Ah yes, before he leaves, Ed tells Al to 'take care of Winry'...
Ed returns to find Noah holding a dead Alphonse. Dietlinde is gone. Then from a familiar armor comes Al's voice. Ed thinks it's just part of Al's soul talking to him again, but out pops his little brother from inside! He snuck back on, unwilling to be separated again. Says Roy would've by now destroyed their world's portal, and he (Al) wants to continue his travels with Ed like they did 2 years ago (this is where Ed realizes Al has regained the missing part of his memory!) :D
Character endings: Winry is no longer waiting for them (woman's intiution; she knows they aren't coming back), she's doing her own auto-mail research. For some odd reason, Armstrong is at Pinako's place playing with plenty of kids. Roze too. Alter!Hughes is stalking Gracia (okay okay he tried to go up and talk to her at last). Hey where's Roy's ending?!
The final ending is Ed, Al and Noah hitching a ride. The former 2 look at the 2 people in the front seats of the truck they're getting on and smile. It's Alter!Scar and Alter!Lust (the audience was laughing XD)... The ending dialogue is Ed saying they can't detach themselves completely from this world (and the upcoming war) because now it is theirs.
Gah what a long summary *dies*
Please do correct me if you see any mistakes. : )
What happened to Roy and Rize eventually, wasn't specified.
NOTE: This summary is still being fixed and proof-read and can be changed at any time.

Wow, thanks for that very detailed and entertaining summary. I didn't want to spoil myself completely, so I sort of scanned through it. But, oh man, I wish the ending wasn't that way :'( :'( :'( *cries unashamedly*!!
Oh man, this ending is so like one of those sensible fanfictions, yet so unsatisfactory!! I'm a huge Edwin fan, and what happened to them???!!! *throws herself down to cry some more*
They'd better make a sequel or another movie despite what they've been saying! They've brought it upon themselves to finish such an incomplete looking ending! :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

No Roy ending?? Winry losing her bestfriends, again, Izumi-sensei already dead, Wrath is a good boy now but he dies horribly, no Royai, brothers not in own world ;___; Even though the brothers reunite and stay together it's still so sad
I don't think it's likely that there will be a continuation from the looks of Edo's ending dialogue, he isn't really the Fullmetal Alchemist anymore ;__;
Thanx for the summary Sycia

All I've got to say is that the producers/story-writers/directors must have been off their their heads when they said that fans would be satisfied >.> Tell me - is anyone here who've read the spoilers and/or watched the film truly satisfied? I'm making judgements before I've seen the film, but regardless I know now what will happen and the story has no satisfying ending to me.

Well, that's good to hear I suppose. Guess it depends on what you were looking for in the film. Did they have a big moment or anything? I'm an Edwin fan, so I'm mainly looking for some way they would get together.... if they don't .... screw the ending. And if they do but no one else gets together happily, then screw the ending as well. *sigh*

Actually there is some EdWin and you can read it here:
Winry had big case, remember? There were Ed's new automail parts, leg and arm. He said - Hey, I'm growing, and she said - I knew how much you'll grow. So leg and arm fitted perfectly. What is love.
Amd, also, when Ed came back, Winry held him, and he blushed... that was one of the best scenes.
Also, Ed had dream about saying something to Winry, like, it was nice, when he said her name in dream (EdWin fans crying in joy
At least something satisfying happened with them.

to the our world
First mistake should be lead
Second mistake doesn't make sense. Change it to to our world

Yeah, I've noticed that you're a Royai fan, so compared to them, Edwin had some satisfying stuff happening. *pat pat* Can't deny the ending ruined possibilities of anything else though. The flower bud was picked before it could fully bloom.

Uterine Sarcoma Treatment (Professional) (cont.)
Stage IV Uterine Sarcoma
There is currently no standard therapy for patients with stage IV disease. These patients should be entered into an ongoing clinical trial.
Carcinosarcomas (the preferred designation by the World Health Organization) are also referred to as mixed mesodermal or mullerian tumors. Controversy exists about the following issues:
The stromal components of the carcinosarcomas are further characterized by whether they contain homologous elements, such as malignant mesenchymal tissue considered possibly native to the uterus, or heterologous elements, such as striated muscle, cartilage, or bone, which is foreign to the uterus. Carcinosarcomas parallel endometrial cancer in its postmenopausal predominance and in other of its epidemiologic features; increasingly, the treatment of carcinosarcomas is becoming similar to combined modality approaches for endometrial adenocarcinomas.
Patients who present with uterine sarcoma have been treated on a series of phase II studies by the Gynecologic Oncology Group, including the GOG-87B trial, for example.[1] These chemotherapy studies have documented some antitumor activity for cisplatin, doxorubicin, and ifosfamide. These studies have also documented differences in response leading to separate trials for patients with carcinosarcomas and leiomyosarcomas. As an example, in patients previously untreated with chemotherapy, ifosfamide had a 32.2% response rate in patients with carcinosarcomas,[2] a 33% response rate in patients with endometrial stromal cell sarcomas,[3], and a 17.2% partial response rate in patients with leiomyosarcomas.[4] Doxorubicin in combination with dacarbazine or cyclophosphamide is no more active than doxorubicin alone for advanced disease.[5,6] Cisplatin has activity as first-line therapy and minimal activity as second-line therapy for patients with carcinosarcomas, but cisplatin is inactive as first- or second-line therapy for patients with leiomyosarcomas.[1,7]
A randomized comparison that was seen in the GOG-108 trial, for example, of ifosfamide with or without cisplatin for first-line therapy for patients with measurable advanced or recurrent carcinosarcomas demonstrated a higher response rate (54% vs. 34%) and longer progression-free survival (PFS) on the combination arm (6 months vs. 4 months), but there was no significant improvement in survival (9 months vs. 8 months).[8][Level of evidence: 1iiA] The follow-up GOG-0161 [NCT00003128] study utilized 3-day ifosfamide regimens (instead of the more toxic 5-day regimen in the preceding study) for the control and for a combination with paclitaxel (with filgrastim starting on day 4).[9] The combination was superior in response rates (45% vs. 29%), PFS (8.4 months vs. 5.8 months), and overall survival (13.5 months and 8.4 months). The hazard ratio for death favored the combination 0.69 (95% confidence interval, 0.49–0.97).[9][Level of evidence: 1iiA] In this study, 52% of 179 evaluable patients had recurrent disease, 18% had stage III disease, and 30% had stage IV disease. In addition, imbalances were present in the sites of disease and in the use of prior radiation therapy, and 30 patients were excluded for wrong pathology.

Not so long ago I went for hunting and for having a picnic with my family. I was very much into hunting, horse riding and stuff like that. I remember when we were about to leave for the picnic my Mom asked me to wear my cheap leather jackets but I refused to wear them. At the time of hunting I fell from my horse and was badly injured on the legs probably because of not wearing my cheap leather jackets. Since then I always wear my cheap leather jackets when I go for Hunt. You should also buy them and to do so check leathermall. Toby.

IAF destroys 2 Gaza rocket launchers
Army says one launcher was used to fire Qassam toward Negev earlier in the day; at least six rockets fired toward Negev region since morning hours. Livni: Israel cannot afford to have a Hamas-ruled terror state on its southern border
Efrat Weiss
Published: 12.18.08, 14:19 / Israel News
The Israel Air Force attacked two stationary Qassam rocket launchers near the Jabaliya refugee camp in the northern Gaza Strip on Thursday.
According to the IDF, one of the launch pads was used to fire a rocket on the western Negev earlier Thursday, and the second launch pad was prepared for a launching.
During the early hours of Thursday morning Israeli warplanes and helicopters launched strikes against terror infrastructure in Gaza for the first time in six months, this following rocket fire on the western Negev region.
The raids targeted a weapons cache in the north Gaza town of Jabaliya and a metal workshop used to manufacture rockets and mortars in Khan Younis, located in the southern part of the Hamas-controlled enclave.
The strikes caused extensive material damage but no injuries, witnesses and medical sources said.
At least six Qassam rockets were fired from Gaza toward the Negev region since the morning hours, this just 24 hours before the official ending of the shaky ceasefire between Israel and the armed Palestinian groups in the Hamas-controlled territory. No injuries or damage were reported in the attacks.
On Wednesday more than 20 rockets were fired from Gaza into Israel. In one of the barrages a rocket hit a shopping mall, lightly injuring three people. Seven more suffered from shock.
Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni said at an Institute for National Security Studies conference in Tel Aviv on Thursday that "in the long run Israel cannot afford to have a Hamas-ruled terror state on its southern border. Right now the truce is not being upheld. Israel should have responded and should respond.

(AP) — A judge has set bail at $1 million for a New Brighton man accused of fatally shooting his neighbor after a feud over feeding deer.
Zumberge is charged with shooting and killing 46-year-old Todd Stevens and wounding Stevens' girlfriend, 48-year-old Jennifer Damerow Cleven, in early May.
[...] Ramsey County Judge Jeffrey Bryan said the potential for Zumberge to serve a long sentence if convicted compelled him to set high bail.

OpenStudio: Building Design Expertise at Your Fingertips
Like many weekend warriors, I enjoy tackling small home improvement projects, like replacing a door or installing an underground sprinkler system. But I want to get expert advice before I start, so I can avoid costly mistakes and achieve the best results.
Commercial building designers faced with energy efficiency concerns share the same feeling. It's complicated trying to make decisions about advanced HVAC systems in different climates or determining potential energy savings from winter daylighting. That's why DOE created OpenStudio, a software kit and suite of advanced energy modeling tools.
Engineers, architects, and others can explore the most efficient improvements available for commercial buildings with this free application suite. Through its user-friendly interface, design teams can use OpenStudio to understand the cost implications of their specific plans.
One of the key components of this system is its ability to tap into DOE's advanced whole-building energy modeling program, EnergyPlus. Designers can draw the building in detail using site photos and other inputs to get an accurate representation of the building. OpenStudio then converts the information into data that EnergyPlus uses to help designers understand the impact their design choices are having on cost, energy efficiency, and code compliance. The plug-in also speeds up the modeling process, which is otherwise complex and time consuming. See the Energy Blog post.

BPM is a Game Changer – Pegasystem's PRPC Version 7, the Key Enabler By: Stuart Chandler Before attending the recent Pegasystems' PegaWORLD 2013 user conference, I asked the simple question: Is Business Process Management (BPM) really changing the game? I personally believe it has, proven by many of the organizations that I work with. Better yet, at PegaWORLD 2013, there was a much broader and greater acknowledgement of how technology is shaping the BPM journey. We all recognize that today's business environment is dynamic and demanding. The rapidly evolving millennial consumer market, coupled with the rate at which disruptive technologies are revolutionizing the way we live and work, staying 'current' translates to staying 'alive' for most organizations. Companies are increasing their focus on adapting their businesses to meet current market challenges through technology enabled BPM. Capturing and encapsulating business rules, processes and situational decision making is enabling organizations to both leverage and optimize their capabilities. Throughout the two day PegaWORLD event, several organizations shared their...

It is sure to be a very interesting and exciting event this year with many organizations sharing their challenges, successes and desires to change the way they do business. Each year, I find it interesting to hear about companies embarking on the BPM journey and how they are using BPM and supporting technologies to transform their business. In today's world, there is so much disruption from pure technology changes as well as consumers' behavior and desire to transact business on their terms, that organizations are facing constant pressures to change the way they do business.

In certain areas, 2011 was the doorway to the new influences on BPM. The year saw significant advancements in the BPM space with Adaptive Case Management, Social Media and Collaborative Process Modeling re-defining traditional BPM process development and BPM, opening its doors to a ' Mobile' environment. We now find ourselves looking at year 2012. Looking into the crystal ball, what might we see? Technology advancements will continue and that is obvious, but where will that lead us?...

Businesses have recognized the need to rethink their strategies and reevaluate their operating models and have commenced to align them with customer expectations and customers' perception of value. From focusing only on optimization of supply chains, penetration of new markets and scaled bottom lines, companies are now opening their eyes to the new world – a world which is moving towards a greater impetus on having a more social identity. Today, people across the globe rely on social networks for finding lost friends, making new ones, buying new furniture and selling antiques — interacting with technology for almost every activity in their everyday life.

It is for everything, right? But how do we set it. We assume with the wide range of technology, depth of understanding and innovative solutions, there is no need to set context as it is already there. Or we assume that we can just paint a quick picture and folks are on board. Better yet, we just rely on others to get it done and for that matter, folks just get it. BPM is more than just putting in a technology or point solutions. BPM is where people, process and technology come together in a new context to orchestrate business execution. Silos are to be broken down, broader technology integrations are to be implemented and a new set of methodologies and tools are to be deployed to create seamless flow(s) of operations.

Win $5000 to Feed Your Passion™ from SHEBA
If you're reading this, you see life as a roller coaster. You ride the ups and downs with ferocity, never content to sit in the bleachers and watch others have all the fun. You know passion.
I know this because I know cat lovers. In fact, I know hundreds of them purrsonally, and if they have one thing in common beyond ailurophilia, it's that they have deeply-held passions. They aren't sidelines-sitters who spend their days watching the TV's remote control carve an ever deeper crevice into their palms. They don't wait for life to happen. They seize each day and squeeze as much as they can out of each precious moment — especially moments with their cats.
I've partnered with new SHEBA® Entrees for the launch of their "SHEBA. Feed Your Passion™" Contest, featuring cat lover Eva Longoria. The SHEBA® brand celebrates the many passions of cat lovers and recognizes that we are passionate about many things. You could win $5000 to feed your passion.
Years ago, SHEBA played a key role in celebrating Skeezix's 2nd birthday party. It was the first — and perhaps the only — cat birthday party that featured significant concurrent online and offline components. We mailed the first 50 cats who RSVPed a party pack that included catnip, Temptations cat treats, a cat toy, a Pin-the-Tail-on-the-Mao-butt game and their choice of "surf" or "turf": SHEBA gourmet cat food's Lobster or Filet Mignon flavors. At the appointed hour, kitties across the globe partied in a chat room as they celebrated with SHEBA and Temptations and 'nip in real time.
Remember this?
I was disappointed when the Sheba brand disappeared from the shelves a couple of years ago because it was always a popular gourmet treat for my cats and held special memories for me and Skeezix. So I was excited to hear that the brand has been relaunched with the SHEBA Feed Your Passion™ campaign.
A Responsibly-Sourced Seafood Choice
One of my passions is preserving the environment. For years, we've followed the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch® program and adhered to their guidelines in making our personal seafood choices. (You can get a free pocket guide here.) SHEBA has partnered with Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch® program and follows their recommendations for sourcing ingredients for Sheba® Whitefish & Tuna and Tuna & Seafood entrees. It's proud to be the first national brand providing broad availability of Responsibly Sourced seafood & fish entrees.
My Passions
If you follow me on Pinterest, you're familiar with a lot of my other passions: cat gardens, cheese, zentangles, genealogy, birding, felting, cowgirls, photography … it's a long list. As a part of the Feed Your Passion™ campaign, the SHEBA® brand is giving me the opportunity to play out my ultimate passion for art in a new and exciting way. I am a lifelong artist and illustrator, but there's one medium I've not yet tackled: mosaic cat portraits.
I'll be attending a mosaic workshop, then creating a series of cat portraits as I master the art. Mousebreath readers will not only get to watch the art come alive, but at least one Mousebreath reader will win a custom mosaic portrait of her cat.
Win a Custom Mosaic Portrait of your Cat
SHEBA is going to fund mypassion and I'm going to take you along on my journey as I learn to translate my 2D illustrations to tessarae. I'll select a Mousebreath reader as the winner of a mosaic cat portrait, and you'll be able to watch as your cat's face emerges from a pile of tiny tiles.
How to Enter the SHEBA Feed Your Passion Contest
Visit SHEBA.com/FeedYourPassion to enter for a chance to have the SHEBA® brand help feed one of your passions in a big way and to learn more about SHEBA® Entrees. You'll need to submit a photo of your cat and describe what passion you'll feed if you win.
You can also check out some behind-the-scenes videos featuring Eva Longoria discussing her top passions at a SHEBA® shoot.
Then, stay tuned to Mousebreath for info on how to win a custom mosaic portrait of your cat.
About the SHEBA® Brand
SHEBA® Entrees for Cats have an irresistible taste that cats love. The PATES and PREMIUM CUTS® entrees are always made with 100% real beef, poultry or seafood. Visit SHEBA.com/FeedYourPassion to enter for a chance to have the SHEBA® brand help feed one of your passions in a big way and to learn more about SHEBA® Entrees. You can also check out some behind-the-scenes video content featuring Eva Longoria discussing her top passions at a SHEBA® shoot.

I think I would be stunning in mosaic…….
I loves my Sheba!
Looked like a fun birthday party. Loved learning about your passions and more about Sheba.
LOVE your idea Karen! Can't wait to see the fruits of your labor!

From Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Peter Jackson comes the first installment of a trilogy of films adapting the enduringly popular masterpiece The Hobbit, by J.R.R. Tolkien. The three films tell a continuous story set in Middle-earth 60 years before THE LORD OF THE RINGS, which Jackson and his filmmaking team brought to the big screen in the blockbuster trilogy that culminated with the Oscar®-winning THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING.
In June 1939 the King and Queen of England (Samuel West and Olivia Colman) were invited to stay overnight at President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's (Bill Murray) country estate Hyde Park in upstate New York (actually, it's his mother's—he just lives there). This was the first-ever visit of a reigning English monarch to America. With Britain facing imminent war with Germany, the Royals are desperately looking to FDR for support. But international affairs must be juggled with the complexities of FDR's domestic establishment, as wife Eleanor (Olivia Williams), mother, and mistresses all conspire to make the royal weekend an unforgettable one. Seen through the eyes of Daisy (Laura Linney), Franklin's neighbor and intimate, the weekend will produce not only a special relationship between two great nations, but, for Daisy—and through her, for us all—a deeper understanding of the mysteries of love and friendship.
Check out the WETA Around Town Reveiw on our YouTube page!
Set in the 1970s, this drama is about Rudy (Alan Cumming), a drag queen whose outrageous exterior hides a lonely but lovable interior. Going to the apartment next door to complain about noise, he finds Marco (Isaac Leyva), a mentally handicapped teenager, abandoned by his mother who has been arrested for prostitution and drugs. Rudy reluctantly and temporarily takes care of Marco, but soon finds himself wanting to turn his guardianship into something more permanent. Meanwhile, Rudy meets attractive, straight-arrow, closeted Paul (Garrett Dillahunt), who attends his show and likes what he sees. Paul works in the DA's office, which comes in handy when Rudy gets into a fight with social services over Marco. As Rudy and Paul are drawn together and become a couple, they seek to adopt Marco, but meet with prejudice and overwhelming obstacles.
In 1989, five black and Latino teenagers from Harlem were arrested for brutally beating and raping a white woman in New York City's Central Park. The policed announced to a press hungry for sensational crime stories that the young men had been part of a gang of teenagers who were out "wilding," assaulting joggers and bicyclists that evening. The ensuing media frenzy was met with a public outcry for justice. New York Mayor Ed Koch called it the "crime of the century" and it remains to date one of the biggest media stories of our time. Each of the five suspects spent 6 to 13 years in prison before a shocking confession from a serial rapist and DNA evidence proved their innocence. Set against a backdrop of a decaying city beset by violence and racial tension, THE CENTRAL PARK FIVE tells the story of how five lives were upended by the rush to judgment by police, a sensationalist media and a devastating miscarriage of justice. Written and directed by Ken Burns (The Civil War, Prohibition, Jazz, Baseball), David McMahon and Sarah Burns.

No. Be less disciplined and buy more Hermes scarves.ReplyDeleteReplies
ha! sounds easier!Delete
Seeing a comment from a gentleman on your blog prompted me to go and have a look at Stephen's blog. What a delightful young man he seems to be. His blog is so well written and beautifully illustrated. A real find via the lovely FF.Delete
Have you been over to have a look??
You are so kind! Thank you!Delete
I did not realize you were on FF's blogroll. What an honor. She is the queen. I usually scanning her blog list for interesting places to visit. Keep up the good work on your blog. An absolute delight.Delete
I am. I train with a group of wonderful women, sometimes they bring their kids. A few ladies above 60 train with us, they are not freaky fit like you see on Telly, but they suck it up and work hard. Our trainer is a great women too. If you could find a group like that, exercise would be less of a chore.ReplyDelete
But you are one of the most disciplined ladies I know! xx
Oh FF just be yourself, don't go into that dark disciplined night!ReplyDelete
Clearly FF, that is not me that you speak of! I do follow your lead though - even ironed my tea towels the other night whilst watching Revenge :) M is a much better influence. I need that candle too.

I am feeling incredibly depressed about my lack of discipline. Cannot lose weight. Cannot meal plan. Cannot stop unpleasant OCD related habits like picking cuticles. I need Michelle Bridges to come and yell at me for a bit.ReplyDelete

Actually talking of birds..yesterday arvo when the heavens opened I was in the garden and herd a plop..a baby rainbow lorikeet had fallen onto the garbage bin .Delete
He was half sized i.e. fully feathered but with sweet little wings.. I couldn't catch him and he kept trying to fly..all the while in pelting rain , sub tropical type rain .

Love your posts and always admire your nails...Any favorite polish brands or hints on how you keep your nails so beautiful? I'm assuming you do your own mani-pedi's. Do your toes match your fingers? Thanks!...JanieReplyDeleteReplies
I generally match but today I am not! I like OPI and I keep my nails short xDelete
My goal at the moment is to stop eating chocolate biscuits in the middle of the night when I'm breastfeeding. It will require so much discipline!! However, now Rita is six weeks old I've thrown myself back into the business and was even editing photos one handed yesterday while feeding her - that's pretty committed!ReplyDelete
Wonder what the candle smells like? Hardcore humidity, leather handbags and cigarettes? I love HK, so jealous W is going without me this year.
was wondering about the smell and thought of ciggies too xxxxDelete
I am woefully undisciplined.ReplyDelete
Whenever I try to be disciplined I get hyper-stressed.Replies
am stressed 24/7 too. xDelete
Yesterday morning we had a vile and ornery Bush Turkey up in our gum tree! The cheek! Love that piano dress, I'd wear that - off to check it out.ReplyDelete

I've just done a Whole30 - no alcohol, sugar, dairy, legumes, wheat or preservatives. Think fruit, veg, meat and eggs! I luffed it but I think I may be a tad more disciplined than you. When it comes to shopping though I have no will power whatsoeverReplyDeleteReplies
wow could never do that!Delete
Well considering I feel like your blog has played a part in helping me to find the pleasure in being a bit more organised lately, I won't lower the tone by offering any of my own advice as am wildly unqualified.ReplyDelete
Feel like at the moment am pretty disciplined with my exercise and eating but really struggle to find the balance with my marigolds. Internet shopping in particular is my achilles heel, it's open 24/7!
Anyhoo, looking forward to reading the advice of The Faithful.
Happy Windsay to you!
I am organised but very indulgent xDelete

a bandwagon worth hopping onto xDelete
Let´s get disciplined together! ;) I´m terribly "sinful" and impulsive to my nature. Third day in a row I grabbet a chocolatebar and a RedBull for breakfast, still drinking it att work while receiving my first patient for the day - not even feeling embaressed...ReplyDeleteReplies
sounds like a plan!Delete
You are doing a fine job, at least from my perspective. And you make it all look so easy.....that is no small feat.ReplyDeleteReplies
I cut corners and rush about!Delete
I used to be more disciplined but I gave it up because it made me lose sleep and gave me headaches. High discipline is not for everyone. I've found my own pace now. I don't see much evidence of bush turkeys in my garden anymore. Maybe there's not enough undergrowth for them to hide in here. I have thought about Easter! Mainly because next Tuesday is Shrove Tuesday, meaning I can freely make and eat pancakes. Shrove Tuesday is my favourite Easter eating holiday because I don't really enjoy chocolate eggs anymore. I am looking forward to cooler weather with more jackets and layers xxReplyDeleteReplies
Shrove Tuesday!!!! I am in! xDelete
I can be disciplined at times, but not most of the time. I think you're a pretty disciplined person though - all that nail polish maintenance and application, plus the elaborate hair drying, house cleaning etc requires High amounts of discipline. Love the camo print, and the Herend bunnies. xxReplyDeleteReplies
but I want to be disciplined across the board! xxDelete
Oh no! You are posting about being disciplined? Why oh why did I say yes to an apple turnover last night? Self indulgent thing that I am. However onwards and upwards, today had fruit with my lunch. Ps bush turkey necks look particularly unattractive and why are they so moody?ReplyDeleteReplies
I wish they would move away from my 'burb xDelete
Ha! You have more discipline in your little finger than a lot of people! I'm picturing neatly folded ironed laundry, table set the day before dinner, resolute committment to superior grooming/hair.ReplyDelete
Embracing exericse, healthy eating and austerity can be a good thing. In moderation. I have a friend hard core disciplined in healthy eating. I saw her having peanut butter, curried egg and cucumber on a rice cracker the other day. Too much discipline. Bring on the cheesecake!!!
Shocking about scarf. I am ashamed!! Will do as told!!
you must wear it!Delete

I don't class myself as disciplined at all but having said that I need to keep up my special diet and exercise for health reasons and just have to stay rigidly determined to stick it out. If my health didn't depend on it then...pfft. If I'm honest I could be classed as disciplined/bordering on OCD with actioning washing, if that hamper gets too full I get the vapors.ReplyDelete
I blame living with an ex-shift worker for my lack of discipline because it's incredibly hard to follow rigid routines.
My advice..don't sweat it, you're already a disciplined person in my eyes.

Yes! how funny! We love it there!Delete
Hmmm. I am not very careful about what I eat but I DO exercise regularly. I don't meal plan but I DO stick to a specific budget and pre prepare things and freeze them. I find meal planning a bit dull. I am somewhat groomed but I adhere to different standards.....ReplyDeleteReplies

I start each day disciplined and determined and it lasts until about 5pm and then it all falls apart. Instead of walking, I eat. I'm on the sofa (again) and snacking on rubbish! Need to get my head in the right space…You however, I'm sure couldn't be much more disciplined!! Damn those turkeys! I have possums here. TonkathReplyDeleteReplies
Loathe possums too, both as bad as each other.Delete
Not disciplined here, but whatever you're doing, seems to be working xReplyDelete
I'm not very disciplined but I have significantly improved since joining a ballet barre class full of extremely stylish and disciplined women. They all show up in coordinated workout gear, gorgeous accessories and chatter about flying in from/to New York / Brasil / Switzerland. Clearly accessorising is key. They are of all ages but all thin and very dedicated. It's all terribly glamourous and I have to say it's been wonderful for my motivation xReplyDelete

We had a bush turkey on our roof last week! Can you imagine! The thing actually flew the 12 or so meters from the roof to the back yard. Astounding.ReplyDelete
And you are so disciplined…just in other realms…like never having chipped nail polish, ironing, and never under cushioning.Replies
hate them, so destructive xDelete

Love the elephant scarf. So beautiful in these colours too! Your flowers are also just gorgeous!ReplyDelete
Hope those bush turkeys fly away. Maybe if you had a dog it would chase them away. But then some dogs can do a lot of damage as well. We had a beagle for 12 years and we couldn't dig in the garden or plant new things because every time she smelled fresh earth she'd dig it up. The first time it happened I replanted the poor beautiful new shrub. The next morning there it was, dug up again. Tried one more time. Dug up again. After that I gave up. Our son loved her and we did too, she was so affectionate, but she was a bit of a destroyer. As a puppy she chewed up our son's brand new Christmas cricket bat and his new sneakers. So maybe dogs are not a good idea after all in the bush turkey/garden stakes. Best wishes, Pammie xxxReplies
I just loathe themDelete

I say "Lucky You" to be surrounded by such motivated and motivating people. I'd love to have that inspiration on a daily basis...but FF, I don't think you need any help in anything. Still , don't think it's fair that you stay so slim, what with all the cooking and dining and entertaining you do.ReplyDelete
As an afterthought, I always thought that "bush turkseys' was one of your colourful turns of phrase until I saw them at our zoo here in Melbourne...not very pretty are they? Also, that Moschino was the very first thing I bought off the internet (inspired by yourself) and I love it)
Thanks for the joy. Linda C.Replies

It does not matter to me that this is not the official campaign of Wendy Davis. This is her Party — the Democratic Party of Harris County. The Party and the candidate are one. The word "stand" is covertly referencing that her opponent – Attorney General Abbot – is in wheel chair. Don't tell me this is an accident and not meant to be a cruel reference to her opponent. I don't buy it.
Wendy Davis should have publicly disavowed this language the second it surfaced on any material relating to her candidacy – it is not clever nor funny nor accidental.
Her failure to do it is a tip about her character. I know she and her team will attempt to justify use of the word "stand" by referencing her filibuster but I just don't buy it. She can do better.

|British scientists believe they are near to discovering a simple blood test for pre-eclampsia which could potentially save the lives of 1,000 babies a year.
They estimate that the test to predict the potentially fatal complication in pregnancy will be available within the next five years.
Up to one in ten pregnant mothers are affected by the condition at present but scientists say that the test could enable doctors to put those women at risk on preventative medication.

Mad Magazine TV Special Unaired Animated Pilot from 1974!
I can't remember where I found this gem:
From the YouTube description:
This was an idea for a potential animated series or series of television specials. When brought to the network executives it was deemed to "Adult" to be shown on television, thus it never made it past this stage.
Very cool.

New World Order - DVD
Type: Event | Date: Tuesday, Oct 13, 2009Alex Jones is a radio talk-show host based in Texas who has attracted a passionate following for his commentaries in which he explains his belief that a powerful underground one-world government secretly rules the world. Jones contends that the attacks on the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, TX, were ordered without provocation by Janet Reno and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms to silence David Koresh and keep him from spreading his anti-authoritarian philosophy, and that the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, were staged by the government in order to strip American citizens of their freedoms in the name of security. Jones has followers and like-minded supporters around the world, and he and his compatriots have faced arrest and jail terms in order to spread the word by staging protests and setting up amateur surveillance operations to monitor the annual meetings of a Bilderberg Group, a private enclave of important figures in politics, economics, and world trade whom Jones (among others) is convinced pull the strings behind the New World Order. Does Jones know something most people don't, or are he and his listeners oddball conspiracy buffs who have come to believe in a bogeyman that doesn't really exist? Filmmakers Luke Meyer and Andrew Neel allow Jones and a handful of his supporters to speak for themselves in the documentary New World Order, which chronicles their ongoing battle against a movement most people don't think is happening. New World Order received its world premiere at the 2009 South by Southwest Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

TUPELO – Billy Hewes insists his life experience and leadership in the Mississippi Senate make him the voters' better choice for lieutenant governor.
"People can have confidence in me to make sure things get done," the Gulfport native said Wednesday during a Daily Journal editorial board interview.
Hewes faces state Treasurer Tate Reeves in the Aug. 2 Republican primary. With no Democrats in the race, its winner will be one heartbeat away from the governor's office.
Hewes criticized Reeves' lack of legislative experience, saying it matters that the lieutenant governor as presiding officer of the state Senate have a good understanding of how to get things done around the state Capitol.
"My opponent brags about holding the line on spending," Hewes said. "When did he have anything to do with state spending?
"He's not passed one piece of legislation and he doesn't even show up at the Capitol."
Hewes also said Reeves "can't have it both ways" – by criticizing legislative spending but approving the vast majority of long-term debt as a member of the state Bond Commission.
"I don't think he's prepared to be lieutenant governor," Hewes said.
Describing himself as a fiscal and social conservative, Hewes said he's spent the past 20 years learning the intricacies of the legislative process and how to build effective relationships to get things done in Jackson.
He touted some accomplishments as passage of a Rainy Day Fund reserve for the budget, tort reform, home-seller disclosure and a prepaid college tuition program.
Hewes said his leadership skills were borne from his living through Gulf Coast hurricane experiences since Camille in 1969.
"I'm not subject to on-the-job training," he added. "We have serious issues ahead – the budget, redistricting – that need an experienced hand in the Senate."
He said he's optimistic about election results, despite Reeves' claims that he's ahead.
"I think the numbers will work in our favor," he said, citing his expectation of strong voter turnout in his south Mississippi stronghold, as well as key areas in north and central parts of the state.
He also noted political endorsements from well-known Republicans like former Sen. Trent Lott, Madison Mayor Mary Hawkins Butler, Billy Powell and Billy Mounger, and others "who understand how the legislative process works."
"Do voters want someone who's proven and seasoned, or do they take a chance on someone who isn't?"
