This is a "diary" in movie reviews: the decade of the 1980s, written by a working critic who slogged through the weird, the cruddy, and even, occasionally, the some kind of wonderful. Some present-day annotation will provide hindsight, but otherwise these are the movies as they appeared: first impressions of Gymkata, the Police Academy pictures, the Stallone-Schwarzenegger-Norris oeuvre at its peak. I'll start small but will keep a steady flow of reviews coming from my stash of yellowing clippings, even when the results embarrass me.
Here, ladies and gentlemen, are famous titles and oddities you have never freaking heard of. These are the children of Ronald Reagan and Lucinda Dickey. These are the damned. These are the 1980s, as they happened.

Government urged to scrap Land Registry consultation
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Housing
Leicestershire villagers in 99% 'no' vote against eco-town plan
The Council of Property Search Organisations (CoPSO) has written to the Minister of State for Business and Energy, Michael Fallon MP, urging him to scrap the current consultation by the Land Registry on the centralisation of the local land charges register (LLCR).
The CoPSO's concerns include a "lack of clarity, unsubstantiated claims over improved delivery, potential consumer detriment and a total disregard for the loss of jobs and impact on the property market recovery are cited as the key concerns".
The government is currently undertaking two consultations - one to consider the restructuring of the Land Registry (which CoPSO believes is a fast track to privatisation) and another, which ends next week, setting out plans to centralise the LLCR and expand the Land Registry's regulatory powers.
The Land Registry claims that centralising the LLCR will speed up the process and introduce a consistent pricing structure.
However, according to CoPSO its members already offer national pricing and searches are consistently delivered within seven days. In fact, CoPSO says that by centralising the LLCR in the way the Land Registry proposes, costs could rise and searches take longer.
James Sherwood-Rogers, chairman of CoPSO, said: "Turnaround times for searches will increase if centralisation goes ahead as they will simply be adding another layer in the process.
"The Land Registry will still require local authorities who currently maintain the LLCR to input data, but the local authorities will no longer be remunerated for doing this.
"From a budgetary perspective LAs will have to make staff cuts and thus the timeliness of data being input to the register is likely to suffer. The further concern is that experienced and knowledgeable employees who currently undertake the quality assurance will go and the Land Registry will not have the competence or local knowledge to undertake this function.
"Under the new plans, the Land Registry will only digitalise records back to 1999 which in one fell swoop will ignore the listing of thousands of homes, conservation areas and environmental issues. At the present time LAs will routinely examine data that goes back to 1926 meaning that homebuyers are fully informed about a property. One wonders what cost there may be for consumers if they buy a property in blissful ignorance of its history. Further what are the implications for the legal profession who are likely to be sued under their PI insurance policies?"
The Land Registry also proposes giving itself powers to make changes to the register data, which CoPSO had called a bizarre decision because it is suggesting that LAs will still be liable for any problems with the information that the Land Registry provides.
CoPSO warns that there will be endless squabbles between the Land Registry and LAs when something goes wrong and this will leave the consumer "high and dry with no clear pathway for redress".
The Land Registry has said it will introduce protocols and service level agreements with LAs but CoPSO questions how they will be enforced across 348 authorities and by whom and at what cost to the consumer.
Mr Sherwood-Rogers continued: "There is no good reason why around half of the £26 million earmarked for this centralisation should not be channelled into improving the structure that is already in place. This would enable the 30% or so of local authorities currently with non-digital records to convert these at a far lower cost to the public purse. In this way the Government's 'digital by default' agenda could be delivered without all the risks that the Land Registry plans entail.
"There is another very worrying factor - the Land Registry has entirely omitted any reference to the potentially disastrous impact on the property market this centralisation may have during the several years they plan to take undertake the centralisation process. There have already been instances of LA employees fearful for their jobs quitting on mass resulting in huge delays for homebuyers in those locations. In Leicester this happened recently slowing up the search process to over 38 days. It is a known fact that the single biggest cause of transaction failure is delays in the process and with search times increasing dramatically this will happen."

Syosset Triplex
565 Jericho Turnpike,
8 people favorited this theater
Showing 76 - 100 of 137 comments
I saw Streisand's "A Star is Born" here, or as Mad magazine more aptly put it, "A Bore is Starred." Even at the tender age of 19 I could tell a real stinker when I saw it.
Michael, I wanted to add my thanks for your magnificent site. It is the most comprehensive, well thought out site I have found pertaining to 70mm. It is a kick to wallow around in it as I reminisce about the good times working during the 70mm roadshow hey day, and it has also helped me win a bet once.
Andrew Lerner posted a link to his blog a while back where he states that the theater was replaced by an Office Depot, which later expanded to include several other stores, including a Petco. Lost Memory followed up with the address for the Office Depot in Syosset as 565 Jericho Tunrpike. I just looked up Petco in Syosset and it, too, has a 565 Jericho Turnpike address. I think we can go with that, at least until we see any evidence that the theater used a different number.
Michael Coate… You are quite correct for pointing out the proper name for your indispensible website! I apologize for perpetuating any misunderstandings as to the site's identity. Call it editorial laziness, but it seems more expeditious to refer to it as "70mm in NY" since that is how so many on CT know it. Out of respect, I will endeavor to be more accurate when referring to the terrific resource you have created. As far as I'm concerned, there are four invaluable resources online when it comes to cinema and movie houses: Cinema Treasures (of course); From Script to DVD; American Widescreen Museum; Internet Movie Database. I think I prefer them in that order, too – although I suppose it depends on just what it is I need to look up!
My sincerest wishes for a very happy and prosperous new year for all!
Weighing in…
I can confirm "The Sound Of Music" was indeed the film playing at the SYOSSET on LI-Tom's requested date of June 29, 1966. The film's incredible run at that theatre was 6/23/65-12/20/66.
In response to Vito's request for me to weigh in on this matter, technically, I weighed in the moment EdSolero linked to my "Sound Of Music" tribute article a few posts ago which contained the info LI-Tom was seeking.
BTW, in reading EdSolero's last post, I'm reminded of something that has caught my attention numerous times. That being the number of folks who think that the website run by Bill Kallay and myself is called "70mm in New York" when, in fact, the website is called "From Script To DVD." The "70mm in NY" thing is simply one article (and a large one at that!) among many articles that are posted on our site. The "Sound Of Music" tribute article to which Ed linked (although he typed into his post "70mm in NY") is yet another article separate from "70mm in NY."
Perhaps Bill and I created the confusion when we introduced Cinema Treasures readers to our site by providing links to the "70mm in NY" piece. We thought at the time that "70mm in NY" would be the ideal introduction to Cinema Treasures readers given the number of classic theatres mentioned in the article and year-by-year film lists and also because of the number of readers interested in the concept of "showmanship." I guess we figured that CT readers would have explored our site in more detail once realizing there was content other than just the "70mm in NY" thing.
The "70mm in NY" project, by the way, is among our site's most popular pages, and we no doubt have you Cinema Treasures readers to thank for that!
I worked the Syosset during that time and I believe Ed is correct.
"The Sound Of Music" was playing for what seemed like forever.
All we need now is for our resident 70mm expert Michael Coate to weigh in and make it official.
oooops I meant 40th anniversary. not a big math guy :)
Ed! You're a genius! That would be wonderful because it also happens to be my 5-year old daughter's favorite movie! Anyone else feel free to weigh in. Big shout out to EdSolero!
According to the great 70mm in New York website, "The Sound of Music" opened at the Syosset as part of an expanded hard-ticket roadshow engagement on June 25th, 1965, and played for 78 weeks! That would have definitely carried it through June of 1966 and beyond.
Good luck with your plans, LI-Tom! Happy Holidays to all!
OK guys I need your help. My parents got engaged on JUNE 29, 1966 after a date at the Syosset. I have HALF of my mom's ticket stub that I unearthed recently and it has the time (8:30 pm) and date, as well as the price ($3.75). These were for reserved seats. My brother and I are planning a 30th anniversary shindig for them this coming summer (they were married in '67) and I'd really like to find out the NAME of the show. Any thoughts, besides trying to find old copies of Newsday on microfiche? Thanks!
Yes Jason, it's hard to believe that both those wonderful theatres are gone. But the same thing has happened all over Long Island, I still have fond memories of Freeport with the Grove and Freeport theatres. All the big houses are gone and the folks today have mostly only the tiny boxes to sit in to watch a movie. You mention Westbury, do you remember the Raceway Cinema? I worked there for the opening reserved seat hard ticket engagement of
"Thorouhlly Modern Millie"
Oh well, at least we have Cinema Treasures and our memories.
Wow, lots of great info here, thanks. My first ever job, as a 15 year-old SHS student, was at the Triplex the summer that "Batman" played on all three screens. I only worked there 5 months until I decided I'd rather be going to the movies on weekends than selling popcorn to classmates, but I wound up with 5 years' worth of memories. Even had my first date there (back when teenagers still went on dates) to see "When Harry Met Sally…". Last movie I saw here was "Wolf" with Jack Nicholson, not a great fate. A couple of years ago I saw my old manager was still working at the UA theater in Westbury, taking tickets — not actually sure if she was still managing, or just taking tickets! I'd take tickets too if it meant I could have the old place back…
When the Syosset was triplexed, the two Todd-AO capable
Norelco 35/70 projectors were left intact and used in the upstairs #3 auditorium. Although a platter was also installed, UA projection chief Joe Kelly decided that any 70mm engagements in the
3 house would be run reel-to-reel, with a projectionist
asigned just for that auditorium.
Historical Note: The SYOSSET was the first custom-built Todd-AO 70mm theatre in the world. (Every venue that ran Todd-AO presentations prior to the SYOSSET were retrofits.)
I believe the SYOSSET's most successful engagement was the 78-week run of "The Sound Of Music."
Another long, successful run was "How The West Was Won" at 43 weeks.
Not even the classy Syosset escaped porno chic in 1972 with a pair of soft x flicks.

Oooohhhhh…NOW I get it. So it's sort of like the "exclusive engagements" of the 70's, right? Where one theater in the county would be playing a movie. Thanks Bill!

There is more information about "Oklahoma!" engagements in the New York City area here:
Capt. Ron: Here's an excellent explanation of the roadshow concept from Marty Hart's American Widescreen Museum site:
You shouldn't feel ignorant about it – the concept was practically dead by the early 1970's, sad to say.
Okay, I feel really stupid for asking this, but I've gotta know….
I grew up in the 70's and (mainly) 80's, so I'm not familiar with movie theater lingo. What, exactly, is a "roadshow"?
Again, I apologize for my ignorance! :)
I believe the NYC roadshow run of "Young Winston" played at the Columbia.
U.S. premiere, by the way, was held at Grauman's Chinese during FILMEX, Nov. 9, 1972. L.A. roadshow run began the following day at Loew's Beverly.
World premiere, I believe, was in London.

The Daily Start-Up
Here's a sign the high-tech sector is really reeling: In the first quarter, 84,217 high-tech workers lost their jobs, a 27% increase over the fourth quarter and nearly five times the 17,345 jobs lost in the same period a year earlier, according to Challenger Gray & Christmas. (Here's the chart, courtesy of All Things Digital.) That's the steepest reduction since 133,511 layoffs were disclosed in the last three months of 2002. The outplacement firm said layoffs will likely escalate in the high-tech sector in the coming months, especially if there's more consolidation….
While employees continue to get sacked, there is a hopeful sign. According to a Wall Street Journal analysis, U.S. companies spent nearly as much on research and development in the the fourth quarter as they did a year earlier, even as their revenue fell 7.7%. These companies apparently have learned they must invest during downturns in order to emerge stronger when the economy improves….
The economic-stimulus package doesn't provide checks directly to technology suppliers, but many tech giants are offering advice to customers that could help them land stimulus grants, writes The Wall Street Journal….
As Facebook gets ready to announce its 200 millionth user, Forbes wonders whether the social-networking company could raise much of the money it needs to keep the site running through advertising. Forbes estimates what it would take to generate $100 million in ad revenue….
Contests held by venture capital firms and incubators that award young start-ups with both money and business advice are popping up all across the U.S. They're also big in India, writes Livemint….
A white paper issued by consulting firm Cambridge Associates is encouraging limited partners – the pension funds, university endowments and others that invest in private equity funds - to capitalize on the current environment, in which fund managers are finding it harder to raise capital and thus their investors have more power. "If LPs can individually and collectively engage with GPs in the spirit of crafting long term partnerships, this could be a unique opportunity to improve the status quo," the report said.

For much of opera's history it was common practice for composers to alter their works for different performances – inserting arias for certain singers, removing others, and changing the orchestration to suit the available forces. Gluck had a particular challenge when he took his opera Orfeo ed Euridice from Vienna to Paris, making significant changes to a work that was already highly innovative, to suit the cities' very different tastes and traditions.
Orfeo ed Euridice was the first of Gluck's three 'Reform' operas, created with librettist Ranieri de' Calzabigi, and it was a tremendous success on its Vienna premiere in 1762. Gluck and Calzabigi set out to reform the serious opera of the day, as in their view it had ossified into rigid formalities, far removed from the drama that was supposed to drive it. They succeeded: Orfeo immediately captivated audiences with its vivid depiction of Orpheus' grief and his journey through the Underworld.
In Orfeo, both Gluck and Calzabigi were influenced by the French tragédie lyrique – particularly its practice of long, through-composed dramatic structures, adapted by Gluck to breathtaking effect. It only made sense, then, that Gluck should wish to establish himself in Paris. He arrived in the city in 1773, and with the help of his former singing pupil Marie Antoinette, managed to convince the Académie Royale de Musique to stage his first French opera, Iphigénie en Aulide.
A strenuous rehearsal period paid off with Iphigénie's triumphant premiere in April 1774. The success, though, was short-lived: Louis XV's death in May meant the closure of all theatres and a premature end to Iphigénie's first run. Gluck put the period of mourning to good use, and rapidly adapted Orfeo ed Euridice for its Parisian premiere in August.
This adaptation was no small feat: almost every movement was revised or extended, with some entirely new sections. The biggest change was to the hero. Orfeo in Vienna had been a castrato; but in France the castrato voice was almost a subject of ridicule, so Gluck recast Orphée as a haute-contre, a very high tenor voice. The haute-contre in question was Joseph Legros, then the Opéra's leading man; his incredibly high-lying voice has meant that, in the history of opera, only a handful of tenors have been able to tackle the role.
The change of hero was by no means the only alteration. Gluck revised the orchestration to suit the more modern instruments in Paris: cornetti were replaced by clarinets, chalumeaux by oboes. The larger performance space of the Académie Royale demanded a richer orchestral texture, leading to much more extended use of the trombones in particular. Gluck inserted extra dances and arias throughout, meeting the French demand for spectacle.
Gluck's amendments for Paris attract criticism, even now. Some see the augmentation of the one-hour-long chamber opera Orfeo ed Euridice into the more ornate tragédie lyrique Orphée et Eurydice as a departure from the values of the 'Reform' operas. It's true that certain things were lost: the transposition of Orpheus' role from castrato to haute-contre disrupted Gluck's sophisticated tonal plan, and the addition of extra movements meant much of the satisfying structural symmetry of the original was lost. The addition of Orpheus' Act I aria 'L'espoir renaît dans mon âme' – a vocal showpiece with arguably little dramatic purpose – caused controversy even in Gluck's time.
And yet there are obvious advantages to the Paris version. In the 11 years between Orfeo and Orphée, Gluck had developed both as a composer and as a man of the theatre, and many of his alterations intensify his earlier dramatic touches. Several of the additions contain some of Gluck's finest music – the revised dances in Act II, Eurydice's lovely following aria 'Cet asile aimable et tranquille' and the Act III trio 'Tendre Amour'. We're lucky today that we can enjoy performances and recordings that seek to recreate, as far as possible, Gluck's two very different impressions of this masterpiece.
Orphée et Eurydice runs 14 September–3 October 2015. Tickets are still available.
The production is staged with generous philanthropic support from Mrs Aline Foriel-Destezet, and is part of #Hofest.]]>
Like many composers and artists before him, Richard Strauss felt himself drawn towards Vienna during the first decades of the 20th century.
The imperial capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire had been the centre of musical creativity in Europe for over 150 years. Strauss's collaboration with the Austrian writer Hugo von Hofmannsthal to the city made Vienna even more attractive to the composer, and the two set both Der Rosenkavalier and Arabella there.
Strauss moved to the city after World War I to take up the directorship of the Staatsoper, a position previously held by Gustav Mahler. But the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire as a consequence of its defeat in the War had turned the former imperial hub into the capital city of a small, landlocked republic. While Strauss and his colleague Franz Schalk oversaw a happy period in the Staatsoper's history, the premiere of Die Frau ohne Schatten in Vienna on 10 October 1919 fell on stony ground. Conceived before the horrors of the war, and the termination of an opulent empire, it was first performed to a broken society, wearied by the excesses of successive emperors and empresses. It would be the only opera Strauss chose to debut in Vienna during his tenure at the Staatsoper.

2014 sees the 150th anniversary of Richard Strauss's birth. The composer is celebrated at the ROH with stagings of Die Frau ohne Schatten (which ran until 2 April 2014) and Ariadne auf Naxos (until 13 July). Tickets for Ariadne auf Naxos are still available.]]>
Puccini's opera La rondine is full of waltzes. There are delicate toe-tapping ones with a solo voice, and full-blown whirling ones with dramatic pauses in the Viennese fashion and the entire company singing and dancing. What is it about a waltz that is so captivating?
The elegant, respectable and restrained gliding we associate with 'Strictly Come Dancing' is not how it was first viewed. The waltz grew popular in Vienna in the late 1700s and began to appear in continental dance halls. But it was a suggestive and dangerous dance in comparison to the propriety of the main shared dances in formal groups. Think of those Jane Austen period dramas with everyone in long lines – men on one side, women on the other, changing partners and everyone watching and listening to everyone else. But with the waltz the couple dancing were together, alone, and their bodies were even pressed against each other. There was suggestive physical contact and the couple could have private conversations.
Clearly, the waltz was not thought respectable and decent. On the occasion of her 18th birthday party, Princess Victoria – later Queen – wrote in her diary that 'Count Waldstein looks remarkably well in his pretty uniform'. She wanted to dance with him, but 'He could not dance the quadrille and, as in my station I unfortunately cannot waltz and gallop, I could not dance with him!' This romantic and even erotic air has contributed to the mystique of the waltz. Through the 19th century it became the soundtrack for love.
The waltz also finds its way into musical comedy, where Rodgers with Hart and then with Hammerstein gave it a particular American, 20th-century twist ('Falling in Love with Love' and 'Wonderful Guy' are just two of many examples). The use of the waltz to signify romance allowed Sondheim to write the lyrics of the show title song 'Do I Hear a Waltz?'. In other words, if you hear a waltz, then you know it must be love.
When Johann Strauss II – the 'Waltz King' – began writing operettas, he naturally put waltzes in them as the perfect means of combining lilting music with romance and drama. In fact, the waltz is now intrinsically associated with operetta. In Lehár's Die lustige Witwe (The Merry Widow) the tensions and final resolution of the love affair between Hanna Glawari and Count Danilo are developed through a shared melody, the famous 'Merry Widow Waltz'. Puccini wrote La rondine as an opera – he as very clear from the start that it was not an operetta. But something about that original commission he had from Vienna put the possibility of using the waltz into his mind. From the music Puccini wrote, it's clear that this was an opportunity he wanted to indulge.
The appeal of the waltz has much to do with its three beats in a bar. We have two feet, so anything in threes immediately makes us move differently with more continuity, which thus leads to turning. The energy of this whirling propels dance into what feels like perpetual motion. And the music responds to this too. To listen to the main waltz section in Act II of La rondine is to experience this uplifting feeling, and be drawn into it, as are the dancers in the drama.
La rondine runs from 5 – 21 July. Tickets are on sale now.
The production is sponsored by Coutts. Generous philanthropic support was given by Mr and Mrs Christopher W.T. Johnston and The American Friends of Covent Garden.
When Peter Shaffer's Amadeus was made into a film in 1984, the producers were faced with a major problem. Much of Mozart's Vienna no longer exists. Half a century after the composer's death in 1791, Emperor Franz Josef made sweeping changes to the capital. He knocked down the city walls, and the suburbs (such as the one in which Die Zauberflöte was first performed) doubled in size. What urban planners hadn't changed in the 19th century, Allied bombing destroyed in the 20th. And although some of the centre's medieval streets are still there, unfortunately it was impossible to recreate what Mozart would have seen and known.
The producers of Amadeus eventually went to Prague (where Don Giovanni was first performed in 1787). There, director Miloš Forman gained access to the Estates Theatre where the opera premiered; the whole city, blanketed in snow, looked as close to 18th-century Vienna as you could get. But for those of us wanting the real deal, we can only imagine what the city might have looked like when the 25-year-old composer first arrived in the Austrian capital, which by 1781 had become a fortress.
Le nozze di Figaro
Coming from Munich, where Idomeneo had opened to an enchanted public, Mozart wanted to write a new piece for the Viennese stage. Lorenzo Da Ponte's libretto arrived in the summer and the premiere of Die Entführung aus dem Serail (set in a Turkish harem) took place the following year. Flying high, Mozart rented lavish rooms in the city centre, at the heart of Imperial society. Changing flats every few months, the composer had had no fewer that eight separate residences by the time that he moved into a house on Domgasse (in the shadow of the cathedral where he and Constanze Weber married in 1782).
It was here – with Le nozze di Figaro – that the composer began his first collaboration with librettist Lorenzo da Ponte, a former priest turned brothel owner. The house sits snugly in a labyrinth of medieval streets with inner courtyards providing the only open spaces in a network of religious institutions, businesses and, nowadays, the ubiquitous coffee house. There's even one on the ground floor of Mozart's old home, named after the servant hero of his fizzy comedy.
Don Giovanni
Mozart stayed at the address for a full year after the premiere and it still stands, now a museum to one of the city's greatest adopted sons. But Mozart's fortunes took a turn for the worse and, by April 1787, the family had to move to the less impressive surroundings of Landstrasse, south of the centre. Unfortunately, the building in which he lived and wrote Don Giovanni no longer exists, knocked down during the 19th century and replaced by large apartment blocks. Only a small plaque marks the site where Mozart composed the opera.
The Prague premiere brought renewed wealth, but the last years of Mozart's life were dogged by financial problems. He often visited pawnbrokers and wrote to the wealthier members of his Masonic Lodge for help. Determined to save face, he refused to sack the maid and, in order to lessen their woes, he took on pupils as well as shifting the family between pokey flats in the city centre and more spacious but cheaper homes in the suburbs.
Così fan tutte
The Mozarts eventually took a flat on Judenplatz – right in the heart of the medieval Jewish ghetto – where the composer began to plan for a more successful 1789. Unfortunately, his arrangements for a German tour failed and the year proved equally disheartening. It was overlooking this spacious square however – now dominated by Rachel Whiteread's chilling Holocaust memorial – that Mozart wrote Così fan tutte, again with Da Ponte. The first rehearsals took place in the apartment, which became another victim of 19th-century town planning. A plaque now testifies to Mozart's presence.
But by wandering the streets, you glean a hint of the city Mozart would have known, however, by wandering the streets of the area. Buildings, heavy with crests and crosses, lean over the cobbled streets, just as they do on Rauhensteingasse, where Mozart and Contanze finally moved in September 1790. A commission from Prague (La clemenza di Tito) and Die Zauberflöte kept the wolf from the door.
But by the time that inflammatory rheumatic fever took hold in late 1791, Mozart was unable to pay for proper medical attention. Adding insult to injury, the building in which he died was demolished in the 1840s. A department store now stands on the site.
A city of Mozartian imagination
Mozart had entered Vienna a chipper young man, but he was unable to capitalize properly on his achievements. The oddly fleeting success of his operas during his lifetime and a lack of imperial patronage following the death of Josef II in 1790 became his downfall. Today Mozart is celebrated everywhere you go in Vienna. Chocolates, postcards, T-shirts and mugs bear his name. But unfortunately only one of the houses in which he wrote his greatest comedies still stands. Our imagination has to fill in the gaps.
So begins The Third Man. One easy reminder of what it might have been like is to go and experience the Royal Opera House's production of Richard (rather than Johann) Strauss's Der Rosenkavalier . It resounds with waltzes and suffuses the enticing smell of coffee and hot chocolate at the Marschallin's levée.
Vienna is the perfect destination for the addictive personality. It proffers some of the finest beer in Europe and its vineyards produce delicious flinty dry whites. For the caffeine fanatic or chocoholic, there is panacea enough in the city's cafés and confectioners. It is nigh impossible to pass by the Kaiserlich und königlich Hofzuckerbäcker Ch. Demels Söhne (the Imperial and Royal Court Sugar Baker Christoph Demel's Sons) on Graben, just up from the entrance to the Hofburg Palace , without drooling over its crystalised sugary displays. During Franz Josef's reign (the Emperor in Kenneth MacMillan's Mayerling), these pioneering confectioners from Württemberg became a saccharine fixture of the Vienna highlife.
Beyond the grand trappings of Demel, the visitor can find the everyday Viennese quietly at their own levée. On almost every corner of the baroque inner city or the 19th century suburbs, the local pours over papers and magazines as they are presented with coffee, tea or the naughty heiße Schokolade mit Schlag (hot chocolate with cream). The Marschallin and Octavian may be grandly served breakfast propped on their plump pillows, but all the Viennese, regardless of class, have a long-standing tradition of taking time over a hot drink and a piece of fattening confectionery.

Council to stop traffic with new 'play streets' for children
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Local Government and also in Communities, Housing
Council to stop traffic with new 'play streets' for children
Islington Council has made it easier for the residents to set up 'play streets' for children.
From this month (7 April), residents will be able to make a no-charge application to have their street fully closed to through traffic for up to 3 hours on one or more occasion throughout the year, so children can play games, run or kick a ball about in safety.
The initiative is being championed by Cllr Andy Hull, Islington Council's executive member for finance and performance, who said:
"Many Islington families don't have access to gardens, so creating a safe, fun play area on their doorstep is a great idea.
"We want to support these play streets and encourage communities to imagine what they could do in their road without cars.
"We are making it easy to close your street without too much paperwork or any cost – while keeping children safe."
Residents' and visitors' cars and delivery vehicles will still be able to access play streets but only at walking pace - children will take precedence over vehicles.
Closures will be marshalled by community volunteers and all events will be under adult supervision. Emergency services access will be preserved at all times.
Paul Hocker of London Play said: "London Play welcomes Islington Council's new play street policy. It is a borough that has always valued play, most notably through its adventure playgrounds. Now with a great street play offer it is taking play right to children's doorsteps."
Certain routes will be excluded from the scheme, including bus routes, highly trafficked roads or those with adjacent closures already agreed.
It will be up to neighbours to glean support for these temporary play street closures by door knocking, postering and leafleting.
Highbury resident Deb Hermer of Canning Road, N5, said: "Street play is great fun. Children love the freedom to play out and parents and older neighbours get a chance to chat over a cup of tea.
"Our first play street was a huge success. It's great that it's being made easier to do it more often".

I still receive the same error with 3.1beta1
Sorry, I'm still using 3.0.1. It's great to follow beta versions to keep track of new features, but some of my plugins don't even use 3.0 features yet. Also, it's already hard to support 2.8, I can't really test beta versions.
I only start supporting new versions when they get stable (what generally happens when 2nd subversion is released, like 2.9.2 and 3.0.2). I only started 3.0 branch earlier because of MultiSite features and a new filter I needed in a plugin and was added in 3.0.
When new version is released, it uses a much better way of loading the plugin and instatiating its objects.
But based on this error message, it looks more like a PHP error. Of course the class is there, or maybe the file is corrupted. Just give me some time and I'll move to 3.1... .2 :)
shidouhikari -
77% of installs (and that's not even active installs) are running 2.9 or higher. I would change your support from 2.8 to at least 2.9+.
There's no way to predict that X.0.2 will ever be release. Both 2.9.2 and 3.0.2 were security-related releases. Otherwise we only would have had 2.9.1 and 3.0.1.
It reflects poorly on WordPress itself when their sites break after updating, even if it's due to a plugin. Some effort during the beta period goes a long way :-)
Yeah I know, but now we're on 3.0.4! In the last milestones it always happened.
Don't take me wrong, core contributors do a great job making x.x.0 stable, but sometimes there's some bug that's not detected and only fixed on x.x.1, and there may be security fixes that bring uns x.x.2 and even more.
I wanted to test it during beta, I wanted to HELP develop and debug WP. But I barely am able to support my plugins and maintain my sites. So I prefere to wait for final WP version when I don't have time to test it earlier.
shidouhikari - That's a perfectly valid way of operating though I would strongly suggest you make that clear on your plugin FAQs and pages. "This plugin IS NOT supported on beta/dev versions of WordPress, and will not be supported on new releases immediately."
People expect plugins to keep working on minor upgrades, and most of 'em expect it on major ones too. This is a part of being a plugin dev :)
Hi shidouhikari - any news on this please? Been 8 months now, many thanks!

"Ferrari deserve to win the Formula One constructors' title even if victory comes as a result of McLaren being punished in a spying scandal, according to the Italian team's president."
Why - just because there cars are red or because Bernie loves them ?
Half empty circuits in foreign lands, threats to quit grand prix in countries that have supported it during is flourshing times - spectators will leave, sponsors will leave ......... i used to love F1 but now I rather spend it watching touring car and moto GP.
F1 is a processional circus.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
i've been reading about,or watching any form of auto racing since 1970 (yes, i'am old). F1, Indy cars, NASCAR,loved them all. after the 80's i got fed up with the F1 political krap and stopped watching F1. concentrated on good old U.S. racing, NASCAR, CART. Then we had the open wheeled cival war. Tried to watch them both, wasn't sure who was right or wrong(still aren't). over the years it got increasingly harder to watch(maybe i mean care). i still payed attention to everything but really focused in on NASCAR.
then the year 2000 came and NASCAR became big time with network tv taking over. NASCAR was going to be bigger than the NFL(blah,blah,blah.....) What did we get?? at least one hour of prerace every week(besides the super bowl do you have to put up with more than 10 minutes of pregame???) , 5-8 laps(depending on track size/laptimes) then 10 minutes of advertizing, over and over again! i used to not miss a lap,(got mad if my girlfriend wanted to talk during the race). now it is so broken up i can't hardly keep focused on the race!
so what did i do in response to all this? i came up with the great idea of:"IF I HAVE TO WATCH ALL THIS #$%$ I MIGHT AS WELL GO BACK TO F1!!!"
watched all the races religiously(practice, and qualifing if i could get up early enough on a work day) celebrated when F1 came to indy. went to all the F1 races at indy(live 200 miles from there). then we had the michelan boycott at indy, now we have alonso/hamiliton spat(shades of senna/prost) and SPYGATE!!!
I love auto racing, why do they continually make it so hard to care about it??
Big ferrari fan...........BUT there is no way 'WE' deserve to win anything! OK, if we were a close second or third or whatever then maybe, but the car is not good, too long, unreliable and not particularly quick.
Take ALL McLarens points, take enough points from the drivers to still make is possible for one of them to win the drivers title........would love to say scrap BOTH Championships but that is pretty pointless. Not sure what the FIA will do tomorrow - not sure they can do much, ban McLaren for 2008 and it will throw the sport into further termoil, let alone any employment issues that may occur with the factory workers.
These are dark days for what was once a wonderful sport.........now dicated by money, sponsors.............and Hamilton this and Hamilton that..........
Still like to watch if I'm at home - but no more neck-breaking to get back if I'm out. MotoGP on the otherhand...............
There you go, taken from f1 news....
"We can confirm that McLaren lawyers have recently brought to our attention certain matters regarding Renault F1," the FIA spokesman said. "But we can also confirm that the (Renault) team does not form any part of our investigations into McLaren's alleged breach of Article 151c of the International Sporting Code.
"The FIA has reminded McLaren that the World Council hearing in Paris on Thursday will focus solely on the new evidence in that investigation. To the extent required, any other matters will be dealt with as part of an entirely separate process.
"Renault F1 is aware of this and is happy to cooperate."
Renault boss Flavio Briatore told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "(Dennis is) throwing stones a bit everywhere. We are calm, no problem at all."
So Ron Dennis, not so happy with being told he's a cheat, is ready to rat about his classmates???
Little prick he is.
I lost all respect for that guy.....

Bruce must be rolling in his grave after seeing the level his beloved team has dropped to.
McLaren is the arrogant team here, buddy.
Alonso: arrogant bastard, claims his title is more important than the team's - claims he brought more to McLaren than any engineer in woking.
Hamilton: arrogant teen who pretends that the paparazzis are getting him to leave to switzerland or monaco (what about being taxfree on the millions you take every year?)
Dennis threatening Briatore to rat about them on some detailed info they may have on the car that won the 2 past championships? that's arrogant
A team that has had engineers passing info to their competitors under the table, the other team able to bitch about technical details they are not supposed to have, also having an amazing advantage in technical knowledge. Other team never won a race last year, now all of a sudden they win everything?
Who's arrogant and who's been cheated?
yeap, maybe things could have been different this year for Ferrari... and if it is true that Dennis knew of those documents then the whole season is void, sorry to say.
Yea, do us a favor: go and watch cricket

Firstly, and fortunately, i'm not your buddy as your obviously an idiot but that a different story.
Secondly, I hate cricket but admit that in todays terms watching snooker, cricket and paint drying is as exciting as watching multi millionaires in a procession driving advertsing billboards at high speed where the new excitement is from watching people changing tyres and putting in fuel. It's as exciting as watching the guys at the local kwik fit and bp station.
Thirdly, if the sport is supported by people like you with an obvious hypocritical view of events where a man is accuesed of possible cheating and then berated for then exposing other potential cheats then you need to decide which side of right and wrong you actually want to sit as you seem confused .... which doesnt surprise me.
And finally
If you actually bothered to read my post you would know that i dont care about either team or you or F1 - its all a processional fix anyway.
Enjoy your stamp collecting.
Well let's face it, with Mclaren out the way for the rest of this season and maybe the next, ferrari may win something.
I'm in the same frame of mind as Bryan633118, iv'e had enough of f1 right now.
I'm in agreeance with ferrari and their case, if Mclaren have gained advantage from the documents then the punishment is maybe justified. But to punish the team for one mans greed would be imo wrong.
I'd imagine ferrari would be happy to see them banned this season and next, as they've won nothing in the last two seasons have they.
F1 was (WAS!) the only sport that interested me for many years. Now I have had enough and will not be following it from here on. Even though I have a friend who is a pal of one of the F1 drivers.
I wonder how many others feel the same.

Comprehensive DescriptionRead full entry
Genus Pseudomyrma , Guer.
Antennae sub-clavate, 13-jointed in the females, 12-jointed in the workers, the antennae slightly thickened towards their apex, not quite so long as the head and thorax, inserted on the anterior part of the face, near the mouth, on each side of a short elevated carina. Mandibles triangular, denticulated on their inner margin. Eyes elongate-ovate, very large, occupying a large portion of the head: ocelli three, placed in a triangle on the vertex. Thorax elongate, compressed at the sides; the anterior wings having one marginal and two complete submarginal cells, the second receiving the first recurrent nervure near its base; one discoidal cell; legs short and stout. Abdomen ovate; the first segment forming an elongate pedunculated node, the second large and globose.
The name Pseudomyrma is proposed for the insects comprised in this genus by Lund, in the Annales des Sciences Naturelles, 1831; but the only character there given is the extraordinary size of the eyes; the genus is fully characterized by Guerin in the Iconographie du Règne Animal.
The observation of the habits of these curious ants given by Lund is, that they are to be found running on the trunks and leaves of shrubs and trees; our indefatigable and observant countryman, Mr. H. W. Bates, sends me the following account of one of the species, P. oculata : " Its colonies I have hitherto found only in the tumuli of different species of Termes ; in some instances I found them in spacious elliptical chambers, in the outer walls of the Termitaria; one colony to each chamber; the chambers wide apart and having no connection with each other; the number of individuals few in each colony; the pupae are not enclosed in cocoons. In some instances I have found them with their larva and pupae within the same chambers as the Termes , in different parts of the Termitarium; the workers are sometimes found in numbers, coursing rapidly over trees and herbage. Another species constructs its Formicarium in the pith tube of dried twigs, the colonies are not numerous." We may from these circumstances perceive that they are insects of varied habit, and that, like those of the genera Formica and Myrmica found in this country, some prefer to construct their habitations under ground, others in decaying trees, whilst at least one species chooses part of the same mound or tumuli, as a species of Termite; in the same manner we find species of Myrmica scabrinodis occupying one side of a little hillock, and Formica flava the other.
I have a very strong suspicion that some of the species described in this paper belong to the genus Condylodon , proposed by Lund, whilst others would fall into that of Pseudomyrma ; the distinctions between these being merely indicated by that author in his communication to his friend Audouin; but as the species which presents the greatest disparity to the type ( P. advena ) is one of which I possess the winged female, and as 1 find the neuration identical with that of the typical species, I retain them all in one genus.

How can I say that this worked for me if I have not even tried the stuff - first of all the two products were sold as a package - the advertising said that to get the desired results I need to use both - All they were interested in was getting the money - for nothing!
The agent who dealt with it was so cocky and sure of herself (which shows they have done this before and got away with it) she even gladly told me her name and agent number: Alexandria agent 4860 - her attitude was very much (you can't touch me) She also refused to transfer my enquiry to a manager.

So, you see, it is worth the effort.
I also called my CC Provider and they are sending me a new card with new numbers. I have three automatic charges to notify of the change once I get the new card... but I am just thrilled!!
Once again, I wish you luck and I hope to hear of your success.
Remember, be firm!! Interrupt their spiel and say NO, I did not agree to this. AND - demand that you be credited on your account for ALL their charges, even small fees.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

I don't know if my original order was also a scam, but it was much like your issue, a 14 day trial on facial cream. On the 14th day another order was shipped and my credit card charged, (they do not waste any time in getting your money) but I admit that this was in the actual agreement. The next paragraph may shock you but it is the truth, so get to work on this immediately!
They have apparently passed on my info, everything, including my charge card # to other companies (or maybe they were hacked?). I had six charges on this months credit card which apparently arose from the above order, placed on the internet. More charges have been incurred on my next bill as well.
What I have already done is to call each of the four 'businesses' and complained, making clear that I did not agree to any 'memberships' through the original company I dealt with. They tried hard to convince me that I 'needed' their services but I made it clear that under no circumstances would I accept these charges. They finally agreed to reimburse me all charges. We shall see if they do. Then I canceled my orders with the original company.
Tomorrow I will contact my credit card provider and discuss it with them and put in a formal complaint.
Do not let these scammers talk you into anything. Be firm!! Interrupt their speel and say NO, I did not agree to this. AND - demand that you be credited on your account for ALL their charges, even small fees (I had two for $1.95CDN, total charges amounted to $178.00).
They try to make you feel that you are in the wrong, that is how they make a living off of good, honest people. You must be strong and stick to your guns!!
Don't forget to make notes and don't get flustered. I wish you luck, and I hope I have been of some help to you.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Our hypnotist/salesman also stated that the supplements he was selling were produced by the only FDA-approved supplement producing facility in the United States. I am checking into this, as I believe this to be a false statement.
When he called a break to sell his "limited supply of half price supplement packages", people were lined up to part with their money. I asked the salesman what financial interest Gorayeb Seminars has in "Whole Nutrients", the supplement producer. He stated that they have no financial interest, they are completely separate businesses, just that Whole Nutrients happens to have the correct supplements in the correct amounts in combined formulas. Yeah, right.
After a couple more questions I stated that I did not pay to go to an infomercial. By this time, a few people in line had started to listen to the conversation, and the salesman quickly offered that, if what he said didn't make sense to me, that he would be glad to refund me right there. I responded that it would be a right good idea, which he did. I had paid by credit card, so I had that small amount of leverage.
I think there would be many more complaints, except that many overweight people have tried so many different plans and pills, that when this one fails, or the supplements make them ill, that they blame themselves for failing another diet.
The ad stated that participants would leave relaxed and alert. I left alert, all right, because I was madder than an old wet hen. This is NOT hynotherapy, but just a modern version of snake oil salesmen.

Does JW Player have a way to dynamically change embedded video source by simply clicking on a link (with new source)?
I know there is a way to easily do this with HTML 5 & java script, but I'm a total noob with little knowledge/understanding, without an ABC explanation + examples instead of terms with no example I just don't get it.
I have a theme "responsive" that has an input box for the home page in the backend. I can easily put a video or image or html there. I want to great a video frame with a default video, then when someone clicks on the links (or thumb image) below that video frame the source changes to the new video.

The Mountain
Mount McKinley is North America's tallest peak, exceeding 20, 320 feet! It is the dominant feature in the Alaska range mountains and is visible from hundreds of miles away in many directions. Mt Mckinley offers an abundance of photo opportunities both near and far, with numerous and diverse views of its many faces possible. Changing seasons, light, and scenery offer new possibilities every year.
Mt Mckinley is among the tallest three mountains in the world from base to peak, significantly greater by this measure and in bulk even than mount Everest.
The Name
Mount Mckinley is often referred to by Alaskans as Denali, which is its native Athabaskan name, meaning "the high one". Some interest in officially renaming the mountain to Denali has existed in varying degrees throughout the years, sometimes sparking debate.
The Summits
Mt Mckinley has two prominent peaks, visible in the photo at right. The South Summit is the highest, and Mt Mckinley's North summit (right in photo) has an elevation of 19,470 feet.
Weather on the mountain is extreme. Temperatures of -75.5 degrees F have been recorded, with wind chills well below -100 degrees Farenheight.
Five large glaciers flow from the slopes of Mt Mckinley. One, The Ruth Glacier, flows to the southeast into the Ruth Amphitheater, where adventurers can stay in the remote Don Sheldon mountain house.
Denali National Park
Mt. Mckinley resides in Alaska's 6 million acre Denali National Park in the interior of the state.
Life abounds in the park surrounding Mt. Mckinley. Hundreds of species of flowering plants as well as mosses, lichens, and fungi cover the ground. Caribou, moose, and grizzly bears roam the land, and smaller rodents and birds occupy the earth and sky.
Mt. Mckinley towers over Alaskas interior landscape, making it visible from vantage points on all sides, spanning hundreds of miles. The Parks Highway connects Alaska's two biggest cities, Fairbanks and Anchorage. Along this 350 mile roadway, Mt. McKinley is visible from numerous vantage points.
Tourists and residents alike are often treated to a view of McKinley on their drive North as they come through Willow, Alaska. The mountain is seldom completely clear, but often glimpses are seen through the clouds.
McKinley is sometimes visible from the hills all the way in Eagle River, near Anchorage, and also 350 miles north in Fairbanks.

Noodle Recipes
Your favourite noodle recipes aren't just reserved for when you're having a takeaway, why not give them a go at home for a healthier, simple version that you're bound to love.
Noodles are great in not just stir-fries, but salads, soups and as a side to a main of fish, chicken or any other meat of your choice. Soft noodles paired with fresh, crunchy veg are a match made in heaven, as the crunch of the veg provides a nice contrast to the noodles.
Noodle recipes are perfect for a midweek meal as they take no time at all to make. You can throw together a great stir-fry or broth in just minutes so you wont have to spend ages slaving away over the stove after a long day. Recipes like our prawn and kale stir-fry or satay vegetable stir-fry are so speedy and yet are filled with veg which makes them really healthy too.
Noodles are great in both hot and cold salads, so depending on your mood you can choose one of our salad recipes that you fancy most. For a good cold noodle recipe, try our teriyaki beef with wasabi mayonnaise and chilled noodle salad for a great dish for a barbecue or just a casual lunch or dinner in the garden.
For more of a noodle broth, try our chicken and shiitake mushroom noodle soup – it's a great lunchtime dish or ideal for a light supper too. You don't have to worry about it taking long as it's ready to serve in under 25 minutes.
If you're pressed for time, you really don't have to reach for a takeaway menu or a microwave meal, there are so many wonderful noodle recipes that you can choose from that are super healthy and are ready in the same amount of time that it would take for your microwave meal to cook. Give our noodle stir-fries, soups and salads a go and use your favourite meat, prawns or go meat-free if you're vegetarian.
