The first two-disc set from Paramount, Forrest Gump is a sight to see, and sure to please anyone who understood the real meaning of the film. To begin, the picture quality is about as good as it gets. Framed at the original aspect ratio of 2.35:1, and anamorphic, the colors are right on (skin tones are especially on target) and the definition is outstanding. Darker areas stand out with the correct shading that goes to show what can be done with careful authoring. The sound, a 5.1 Dolby Digital English track, is also perfectly realized. Though there is only a slim amount of surround material, the track is very forward and forceful, taking advantage, just at the right time, of the deeper bass. Also available is a French surround track and subtitles in English. As for extras, there is no mistaking that this Academy Award-winning film gets the star treatment. The first of the two discs, along with the movie, has two audio commentary tracks. The first is from director Robert Zemeckis, producer Steve Starkey, and production designer Rick Carter. The second commentary is from another of the producers, Wendy Finerman. Neither is screen-specific, but both are, in different ways, filled with a wealth of valuable information. But it is the second disc that houses the majority of the supplemental materials. There you will find a half-hour documentary (originally released on VHS in 1994) called "Through the Eyes of Forrest Gump." There are enough interviews and behind-the-scenes shots to make this better than the standard fluff piece. Next are some shorter featurettes, "The Magic of Makeup," "Through the Ears of Forrest Gump" (made up of five short segments), and "Building the World Of Forrest Gump -- Production Design." Eleven visual effects discussions, including two scenes that were excised from the film, are the highlight of the extras. Visual effects producer Ken Ralston and his team talk in depth about the multitude of effects shots used in the film. Finally, this disc features a decent photo gallery, some wonderful (though short) screen tests, and a couple of trailers. This is a wonderful DVD set for a memorable movie, certainly worthy of any collection.

Love the movie and soundtrack; love Tom Hanks. In my humble opinion this is one of the best movies ever made.
This is a movie I could watch over and over. My parents liked it , my brothers liked it , and I liked it too. I rented it a couple of times on VHS. I bought a couple of movies on DVD for Christmas this year and guess which one of them it was That's Right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was this movie and it was the Paramount 2 disc(s) special collector's edition DVD!!!!!! I"LL Never Be Sorry For Buying It!!!!!!!!!!!!
Imagine you are the most dull-witted individual on the planet and grace every major historical event in history. Then I guess you are Forrest Gump. This movie is as charming and heartwarming as the first time you watched it.
This is a great movie, its show the rewards (in though the were a little big) of just keep your, he never let any one down and always did the right thing, and he was the most inosent person
How this movie won the Academy Award for Best Picture over Pulp Fiction and Quiz Show will be as great a mystery as Stonehenge or the Bermuda Triangle. Sure it is cute and the scenes with famous people are cool (though denatured on television) but essentially this is like listening to one piano note played over and over for nearly four hours (much like Rainman). Fortunately we are spared from learning a valuable lesson about the mentally challenged and instead are treated to little vignettes where the insipid but well-meaning Forrest globehops from incident to incident either screwing them up or gaining advantage. As frightening as Triumph of the Will, this film should serve as a warning of what is going to happen to us if we embrace the stupid. This is already occuring at an astonishing pace judicially. Well, you were warned.
Horrible movie bringing to the screen some of the worst ideals and morals of the 1990s as objects of praise. The theme of the movie is that achievements due to fool's luck and sheer coincidence are just as praiseworthy, if not more so, than accomplishments due to intelligence, competence, and effort. Altogether a very poor message about what standards of excellence should be in society. Just as with the film itself, appearance is more important than substance; indicating only how, out of pity, we choose to lower our standards of achievement to make those who are inept feel proud of themselves.
I have read the book and wacthed the movie. I think they are both very well done projects. A book very well done, was made and written so good that I just keeped on reading it. The movie was very well to, Its a very enjoyble wacth for basically anyone. But they did have many differences. For example forrest played high school football as well as colledge. He did become a allstar and did meet the president of the United States of America. But in the book he meet the president several times. He even sat down and wathed the old tube and ate breakfest with the highest rank man in the world. He met Jenny of course in both of them but in the book he played the harmonica in a couple of hippie bands. One of them were called the cracked eggs. In the book he was a astronout, he wasn't in the move. In the book he got stuck on a crazy island with some cannibals. But he ended up surviveing it with a new friend a monkey. I would reccomened both of these to anyone who thinks they know it all about the old box of chocolates.
A film that expresses faith, and courage brought a heartwarming movie to the american people. Tom Hanks earned a well deserved Academy Award in this film about a man whos struggles with humility and the absence of being normal growing up in Alabama. Along the way Forrest Gump meets his match when he befriends a girl named Jenny(Robin Wright). When forrest becomes older he goes on to play football for Alabama. After forrest eventually joins the army and goes to vietnam along side Lt. Dan Taylor (Gary Sinise). Forrest Gump is a must see movie. Tom Hanks gives an outstanding performance in one of the most talked about movies. Although it does contain some content so i wouldnt let young children watch it. Director Robert Zemickis gives one of the best movies out there for everyone to see. The DVD is something everyone should own or have. The two disk DVD offers deleted scenes and bonus features.
Tom Hanks did a fasanating job as the Forrest Gump who was a special boy who became a man and loved Jenny the girl he met as a boy and i laugh at Lieunt Dan he's real funny he quote have you found Jesus yet Gump? Foresst replies i didn't know i was suppose to be looking for him sir LoL now thats funny and its true life is a box of chocaltes you never know what you gonna get!
I love this movie. It is in particular the movie which can feel greatness of the presence of mother for a child.
There are just some movies that move you and this was one of them. However, I feel that way about a lot of Tom Hanks movies. My husband and myself must have watched this movie atleast 25 to 30 times and we still are not tired of it. Anyone who enjoys Tom Hanks will love this movie. It is a movie that will touch everyones heart.
We loved it so much that when we brought home our little furry child "a siberian husky" we named him "Konotoki's Littlest Forrest Gump" and Forrest Gump Barger was his name. But Sadly we lost him last year at the age of 8yrs to a stroke and since then I haven't been able to watch to many movies that have siberians in them or his name sake movie as of yet but one day soon I will watch his movie with a box of tissues and rejoice at the life and love of Forrest Gump!
I have wacthed the movie a few times becouse it always keeped me interested and in my seat ready to wacth it agian even though it is a four hour movie. But then I had to read the book, I thought it was going to basically be the same thing. But when I started to read the the book it was a different thing. I have read some other reviews about the movie and I don't agree with the runner's opion on the movie becouse I thought the movie was well worth the wascth for it being so long you dont even notice how fast he time goes buy. It is not a big mystery on how they won all those awards. They had very good actors and actress. there scenes were done very well. I thought this movie was worth only four stars becouse the book was better and if you want to understand it better the movie you should read the book, you'll learn more about the characters and the ones that arent even in the movie. The movie was a very good wacth and I would recommened it to any one who want's almost every thing in one movie. Like action, love, drama and so on.
Forrest Gump is a heart-warming story about a man and his life story. It starts with Forrest sitting on a bench, when a woman comes and sits down next to him. That is when he starts to tell his story about Jenny, the Vietnam War, Bubba, the shrimping boat etc. Overall, this is a great movie that all should eventually see.
forrest gump has got to be one of the best movie's of all time! it says it for itself. just watch the movie, and you too, will be moved. it's both funny and very emotional(especially when jenny dies and forrest's mommy). my fav. part is when forrest talks with forrest jr. at the bus stop. haley joel osment and tom hanks are so cute for their roles. tom hanks was BORN to play as Forrest Gump!

Sarah A. Haydel, MD; Dermatologist, Haydel Dermatology, Houma, LA.
Every day, we make decisions on behalf of our skin: How to protect it, how to care for it and how to treat it. The skin is also faced with numerous challenges, starting with external factors we encounter every day—like sun exposure and pollution—and lifestyle decisions we make that can contribute to the aging process.
The biggest way that external factors affect the skin is through the breakdown of collagen. Think of youthful skin as a hard mattress: It contains strong collagen fibers to keep it supple and firm. As we age, that mattress becomes soft and squishy as the skin loses collagen. Gravity takes over, causing sagging and increased skin laxity. Also, weak collagen cannot support the blood vessels in the skin and may lead to broken capillaries.
The primary contributor to lost collagen? You guessed it—the sun. Years of cumulative exposure cause wrinkling, brown spots and skin cancer, thanks to powerful UVA rays capable of penetrating deep into the skin and damaging its DNA. UVB rays are responsible for sunburn and can intensify in high altitudes or snowy locales (where 80 percent of the sun's rays are reflected back onto our skin).
Luckily, broad-spectrum sunscreens protect from both types of damaging UV rays. When selecting a sunscreen, look for an SPF of at least 30, which blocks 93 percent of the sun's rays. I recommend physical sunblock as opposed to chemical formulas. Unlike the bright, opaque versions you may remember lifeguards sporting years ago, physical sunscreens now boast new, elegant formulations that absorb easily into the skin. Physical sunscreens are also less likely to cause irritation in sensitive skin types.
Contrary to the marketing you may have heard from tanning salons, indoor tanning is no safer than exposure to natural sunlight. According to a startling statistic from the International Agency for Research on Cancer, there is a 75 percent increase in melanoma risk in people who first used tanning beds in their teens and twenties.
Smoking, like tanning, is a direct carcinogen to the skin. In addition to destroying collagen (not to mention being a proven cause of multiple cancers), smoking constricts blood vessels, depriving the skin of oxygen. As I tell my patients, this action can be equated with "choking" the skin from the inside. This means that the skin will be much slower to heal—in fact, just one cigarette can cause blood vessels to constrict for a full hour afterward.
Other lifestyle choices can directly affect the skin, as well. Alcohol consumption can be very dehydrating to the body and the skin, causing the complexion to look dull. Frequent drinking may also contribute to blotchiness, redness or aggravated rosacea.
The recent organic trend has led to a focus on the food we consume and how it affects our appearance. Poor nutrition can lead to slower wound healing and sallow skin. Like the rest of the body, our complexion reflects the healthiness—or lack thereof—of our diet. I advise my patients to eat a well-balanced diet, complete with fruits, vegetables and to drink lots of water.
The use of sunscreen is the number one action people can take to prevent the signs of aging; a topical regimen that incorporates vitamins A (also known as retinol), C and E is also important. These antioxidants help to neutralize free radical damage caused by sun, pollution and other environmental toxins we encounter that can affect the health of the skin.
Commit to healthy choices and protection. Though modern-day dermatologic procedures can work wonders to reverse years of damage, prevention is the best way to ensure a healthy future for your skin.

London 29 November 2012: Huawei's latest Ascend smartphones and Mediapad tablets take advantage of Apical's Assertive Display technology to extend battery life and enhance the multimedia viewing experience.
The Assertive Display engine is integrated into Hisilicon's K3V2 quad-core application processor.
Hisilicon already implemented its proprietary A.I.PS (Artificial Intelligence Power Scaling mechanism) in K3V2 to manage the number of working cores and the status of CPU and GPU automatically. Integrating Apical's Assertive Display now enables Hisilicon to offer a whole-system approach to power management, since the display is typically the largest consumer of power on a mobile device.
Using Assertive Display, Huawei can reduce display power consumption by 30% on its Ascend smartphones while simultaneously improving visual quality of movies, images and games.
Assertive Display works by dynamically adapting each pixel so that all content displayed on the screen is always optimally adapted to the display contrast ratio, which varies according to viewing conditions. Based on a model of human vision, Apical's technology enables the display to adapt strongly between darkness and sunshine in the same way as our eyes. It successfully overcomes the current limitations of even today's most advanced displays in providing power-efficient and high quality imagery in any viewing conditions.
Says Michael Tusch, CEO Apical: "Assertive Display is probably the most significant display-related differentiator for high-end smartphones and tablets since it addresses the two biggest challenges for mobile displays: viewability and battery life. We are glad Huawei has chosen to deploy this technology in its impressive range of devices."
Says George Yiu, Director of HiSilicon Turing development department: "Battery life is one of the major problems for today's high-performance tablets and smartphones. We licensed Apical's Assertive Display technology as part of our overall ambition to deliver the best user experience and the most efficient power consumption."

If that's the route you want to go.
Or you can have a separate profile just for Moz and one just for SM.
That way you can keep both programs
Or just have SM pick up your Moz profile. Just don't use the same
profile for both programs.

UbuntuVideoCast: Windows File-Shareing with SAMBA
Samba is the SMB (Server Message Block) and CIFS (Common Internet File System) implementation which makes it possible to share files with windows platforms and even makes is possible to create a PDC (Primary Domain Controller). The PDC maintains Users, Groups, Permissions, Printers and File-Shares. Here is a explanation of what SMB and CIFS is, I borrowed it from Microsofts website:
The Server Message Block (SMB) Protocol is a network file sharing protocol, and as implemented in Microsoft Windows is known as Microsoft SMB Protocol. The set of message packets that defines a particular version of the protocol is called a dialect. The Common Internet File System (CIFS) Protocol is a dialect of SMB. Both SMB and CIFS are also available on VMS, several versions of Unix, and other operating systems. The technical reference to CIFS is available from Microsoft Corporation at Common Internet File System (CIFS) File Access Protocol. Although its main purpose is file sharing, additional Microsoft SMB Protocol functionality includes the following:
- Dialect negotiation
- Determining other Microsoft SMB Protocol servers on the network, or network browsing
- Printing over a network
- File, directory, and share access authentication
- File and record locking
- File and directory change notification
- Extended file attribute handling
- Unicode support
- Opportunistic locks
In the OSI networking model, Microsoft SMB Protocol is most often used as an Application layer or a Presentation layer protocol, and it relies on lower-level protocols for transport. The transport layer protocol that Microsoft SMB Protocol is most often used with is NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NBT). However, Microsoft SMB Protocol can also be used without a separate transport protocol—the Microsoft SMB Protocol/NBT combination is generally used for backward compatibility. The Microsoft SMB Protocol is a client-server implementation and consists of a set of data packets, each containing a request sent by the client or a response sent by the server. These packets can be broadly classified as follows:
- Session control packets—Establishes and discontinues a connection to shared server resources.
- File access packets—Accesses and manipulates files and directories on the remote server.
- General message packets—Sends data to print queues, mailslots, and named pipes, and provides data about the status of print queues.
Some message packets may be grouped and sent in one transmission to reduce response latency and increase network bandwidth. This is called "batching." The Microsoft SMB Protocol Packet Exchange Scenario section describes an example of a Microsoft SMB Protocol session that uses packet batching.
In order to install Samba you can use apt-get, aptitude or tasksel. After the installation the smbd and nmbd services get started and will start automatically every time the systems boots. On Ubuntu the following directories are good to know.
This directory contains all of the main configuration files used by Samba, including local password files.
The smb.conf file is the core configuration file for Samba and is used to define file-shares and global settings for Samba itself.
This is Samba's init script to start, stop, restart, reload the services.
This tool will be used to add users to the Samba Users Database but a linux user need to exist prior to this task otherwise you receive an error. Here are some switches that can be used:
-a = add a user account
-x = delete user account
-d = disable user account
-e = enable user account
-m = add machine account (needed for PDC configuration)
contains documentation and configuration examples
contains all databases like users and passwords
contains Samba's own log files.
The first clip demonstrate how to set up an easy file share open to everybody and in the second clip it demonstrate to set up an easy file share where specific users have access to. Later on I will write another article about How to set up a simple PDC with Samba. Enjoy those two Youtube Clips.
Here are the two parts for an easy share and how to add some security to it:

Green Eggs and Ham: A Dr. Seuss BreakfastNicole Presley
I looked around my kitchen this morning and found that it was a complete disaster. Dishes piled high in the sink for me to wash and crumbs were all over the counter. I had had a dinner party the night before, and I always follow the advice of my great grandmother: "The dishes can wait till tomorrow; they will still be there, but your guests won't." As I slipped my hands into a pair of rubber yellow gloves to wash the dishes, I wished The Cat In The Hat would come and clean up this mess in a matter of minutes. That would have been grand, but since he did not, I enjoyed a plate of Green Eggs and Ham. I did have one little trick up my sleeve–I made these eggs green with a delicious spicy sauce that you wouldn't believe.
Ingredients for Green Eggs and Ham:
- 1 – jalapeno
- 1 1/2 – cups cilantro (washed)
- 2 – garlic cloves (peeled)
- 1- teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 – teaspoon black pepper
- a pinch of ground mustard
- 1/2 – cup water
- 1 – english muffin (toasted)
- 1 – ham steak
- 2 – eggs
- In a small frying pan over a medium high flame add jalapeno and char skin of chile for about 10 minutes. Then remove from flame and slice off stem.
- Add jalapeno, cilantro, garlic, sea salt, pepper, ground mustard, and water to a blender. Blend on high for 1 to 2 minutes or until smooth. Set to the side.
- Toast english muffin. Set to the side.
- Cook ham steak on a grill to warm for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
- Fry up two eggs sunny side up.
- Top toast with eggs, then pour cilantro sauce over the top.
- Serve with ham, and ENJOY!
Ingredients 1 of 5
Jalapeno 2 of 5Heat chile in a pan to char the skin.
Charred Jalapeno 3 of 5Once skin is charred remove from pan and slice off stem.
Jalapeno and Cilantro in the blender. 4 of 5Add cilantro, jalapeno, garlic, spices and water to blender. Blend till smooth.

Conditions will be warming up in Sacramento on Wednesday, but a storm system could dampen the pleasant conditions a bit.
Morning temperatures were in the 40s, but will move into the high 70s in the afternoon.
Tamara's forecast: Where unsettled weather will linger
Winds will stay calm with mostly clear skies.
By Thursday, a weather system will move into the region and is likely to miss the Sacramento area. There will be an increase in cloud coverage as a result of the system.
The mountain areas could pick up some rain Thursday.

Oakland Raiders safety Tyvon Branch will be out a while. Exactly how long remains uncertain. Raiders head coach Dennis Allen said the ankle injury Branch suffered during Sunday?s 19-9 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars at Oakland Coliseum was ?significant.?
In Allen-speak, that means big trouble.
?We?ll know more tomorrow,? Allen said.
Branch hurt himself in pass coverage during the first quarter. He was on the ground in significant pain and couldn?t reach the sideline under his own power. He was examined on the sideline, taken into the locker room and a return was quickly ruled out.

Maree Frisby Rambo, 84, of Chestnut Hill, a patron of cultural and charitable organizations who was a bridesmaid to Princess Grace of Monaco, died of an apparent aneurysm at home Saturday, March 3.
In April 1956, Mrs. Rambo was Maree Pamp, one of the bridesmaids at the royal wedding of Grace Kelly - a friend from the Stevens School in Philadelphia - to Prince Rainier III of Monaco.
Kelly, an Academy Award-winning actress, had given up her career and was a princess after her storybook romance.
The Inquirer chronicled the bridesmaid's adventures leading up to the nuptials: Her purchase of a wardrobe from Lord & Taylor; the transatlantic crossing aboard the SS Constitution; and the theft of her jewelry along with the jewelry of other wedding guests at the Hotel de Paris.

NASCAR remained consistent in its penalties for the Nationwide Series this season as it announced Tuesday that it had docked points for a car that was too low in postrace inspection while it opted for just a fine for a car that had an illegal front bumper cover.
The penalties were for infractions committed last week at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
The Rick Ware Racing car of Timmy Hill was too low in the front in postrace inspection Saturday. Hill, who finished 19th in the race, was docked six points, his team was docked six points in the owner standings and crew chief George Church was fined $10,000. It was the same penalty issued to Elliott Sadler for being too low a week earlier at Iowa.
Hill, who has missed four races this year, will remain 22nd in the standings even with the six-point penalty.
In opening-day inspection Thursday, the Richard Petty Motorsports car of Michael Annett had an illegal upper front bumper cover. NASCAR confiscated the bumper cover and the team replaced it before practice began Thursday.
Crew chief Philippe Lopez was fined $10,000, and Lopez and car chief Michael Wright were placed on NASCAR probation until Dec. 31. Those penalties were the same as the ones issued earlier this year to eight other teams.

Thanks for "bouncing in" to my little corner of the world. I promise, it will be worth the effort. My given name is Beth Rudy, but my native name is "Bouncing Wolf". This was inspired by my love of a certain orange and black Disney character, and my 5-year-old golden-lab of the same name -- Tigger. We both have a very hard time keeping our feet on the ground when we get excited.
And nothing excites me more than a new creative idea. Many times, my creative mind moves faster than my hands can ever keep up with.
Rest assured that all of my patterns have been fully tested by me! I don't use a bead fairy. Each pattern is shown with a photo of the finished piece that I have beaded from the pattern.
So, check back often for new patterns. When my creative muse strikes, watch out!!!
Thanks for shopping with me.
Wolves are social creatures. They live in tight knit family groups. They are a part of the group, but they still maintain their individuality.
Wolves are teachers and pathfinders. Sometimes they come to use to help us learn balance in our lives and to help us gain confidence in our decisions. In this busy modern day world it is hard to find balance between friends, family and ourselves and the wolf can guide us along that journey.
The medallion of these earrings are 1 7/8 inches long x 1.5 inches wide and the fringe adds 2 inches.
On the pattern pages, I have provided you with:
full-color, graph-style beading chart
color key with suggested bead colors and bead counts
full color photo of the finished earring
brick stitch word chart
Approximate Finished size:1.5 inches wide x 3 7/8 inches long
Supplies Used:Delica seed beads 0.5 inch glass bugle beads
Technique:Brick stitch and stringing

> If you have an application with several windows open
> is there any way to easily get all windows from that
> application to move to another space?
Define "space", "window set", and "application". There is
a protocol in X (it's a property tag; I'd have to look up
the details) which allows an application to identify related
windows, so that a window manager can see them as a group
later, but I don't think it's used that often, and some
window managers might simply ignore it for all I know.
It is not clear whether the window manager will move the
dialogs related to a window into another workspace, either.
In the case of KDE or Gnome one can simply drag a rectangle in
the workspace widget (a small widget usually placed
in the panel), and upon release the window manager will
unmap the window and move it to the requisite spot.
In the case of Gnome the window will inherit the position
in the screen; if one wants to adjust the window visually
it must be visible. I don't know KDE's behavior in this area
but suspect it's vaguely similar.

Most X window managers operate on only one window or window
group at a time, and the window group is application-identified,
not user-identified, as I've stated above.

The way we were
May 27, 2013 - Ray Eckenrode
"Mad Men" 6x09:
Episode title: "The Better Half"
Significance: Duality is everywhere in this episode with musings on butter vs. margarine and soap opera twins giving way to character essays on Don's two wives and Peggy's two bosses. Hey, Abe even gets stabbed twice!
Time passages: The episode takes place in the summer of 1968, but with no historical sign posts offered, we're left to make an educated guess, based on the summer camp and Joan and Bob's beach trip, that it's most likely the month of July.
Episode essay:
"Status quo ante bellum."
The state existing before the war.
While Arlene extends that Latin phrase (perhaps belying a Catholic school education?) as a peace offering to Megan after making a ham-handed pass (make that three ham-handed passes) at her, it's clear in "The Better Half" that a lot of people are longing for the way things used to be.
Of course, that's no more evident than with Don and Betty (whose weight loss seems stark in TV time but really occurred over the course of five months in 1968 time) who let a healthy dose of parental nostalgia (and alcohol) catapult them between the sheets while separately visiting Bobby at an upstate summer camp.
But, of course, when you have nostalgia for something it only means the original feeling is irretrievably gone, which is something Betty seems to know instinctively, while it takes a hit of a menthol cigarette to get the message through to Don.
Last week's episode helped us understand how Don's unhealthy attitude toward sex and love developed, and Betty (and those four knotty pine walls) finally get to hear him verbalize it when he literally compares sex to a conquest. "Just because you climb a mountain doesn't mean you love it," he says.
The sad, sad pillow talk leaves Betty feeling empowered about her own choices (she's absolutely glowing the next morning at breakfast when Henry finally makes the scene) and feeling sad for Megan. "The poor girl, she doesn't know that loving you is the worst way to get to you," she says in a classic "Mad Men" moment.
Still recently dumped by Sylvia and now bested in bed (and life) by Betty, Don does what he usually does, he returns to his sweet, naïve wife and tells himself things will change. But as Betty knowingly noted, a woman can only hold Don Draper's attention for so long, and as he makes another vow to be there for his young bride the unmistakable sound of sirens wail in the distance.
About last week: We've several times compared the direction of "Mad Men" in its penultimate season to what happened with "The Sopranos" down the stretch when David Chase's vision of the show's end game – heavy on psychological drama and experimental storytelling and light on whackings and Bada Bing girls – audibly upset the core audience. In that vein, last week's surreal, amphetamine-driven weirdness sure put us in mind of Tony Soprano in the desert on peyote. "I get it," he screamed to no one (and everyone). "It's everything," Don Draper answered last week.
Brand names: Blue Bonnet entered the margarine wars as the low-end competitor and Don compared Fleischman's to Budweiser. Both Canadian Club and Seagram's 7 got whiskey cameos while Skinny Betty turned heads at an Esso filling station.
Quick hits:
+ Where do I get a pair of Bob Benson's shorts?
+ And while we're at it, what's the deal with Bob Benson? He and his Eddie Haskell act have been hanging around too long and been included too prominently in this season's doings for him not to save some larger purpose in the storyline. (Morning after note: Many are now pointing out that good ol' Bob told Ken his father was dead in the Season 6 premiere while last night he told Pete the Spanish nurse brought his father back to health. The thot plickens.)
+ Did you catch the cheeky nod from Matthew Weiner and the writing team to how many times the part of Bobby Draper has been recast? "I'm Bobby 5," he tells his parents at a crowded summer camp. Actor Mason Vale Cotton is actually the fourth (and best!) Bobby Draper.
+ More duality: Both Duck and Arlene consider Pete and Megan to be younger versions of themselves. Duck even tells Pete, "I used to be you."
+ Note to self: When someone says something in Latin in a TV drama, it's important.
Historical notes:
+ When Abe mentioned riots in European capitals while decrying the "Fascist state" he perceives he's living in, we were reminded that 1968 was not just a tumultuous year in the United States.
Sweet tweet: From @wyethwire: "Can we fast forward to 1974 when Abe kidnaps Patty Hearst?"
Lines of the night:
+ "There's a right and there's a wrong." – Don Draper
+ "I can't solve those problems. I have those problems." – Joan Holloway
+ "I can only hold your attention for so long." – Betty Francis
+ "You can't touch me like that." – Ted Chaough
+ "Your activities are offensive to my every waking moment." – Abe Drexler
+ "Who's going to watch TV with him? Bob Bunson?" – Roger Sterling

Colts Authority Daily Links
Conrad Brunner of 1070 The Fan talked to Bruce Ariens, the refreshingly honest Andrew Luck, and Antoine Bethea about the Colts' focus moving forward:
"This is sort of different," said safety Antoine Bethea. "Here, we talk as a crew and the head of our crew is down."

Today, 9/11
September 11, 2008 - John Mehno
NOTE: I wrote this two years ago, but I think it's worth reposting on Sept. 11, 2008.
The Pirates were supposed to play the Mets at 7:05 and I was supposed to get a haircut at 1:30. It was simple enough. Get a haircut, then walk across the bridge to the ballpark on a nice, sunny day.
When you don't wake up before 11 a.m., you're often late to what's happening and that was the case on Sept. 11, 2001. I first tried to make sense out of the insanity that was coming out of the radio. Then the TV provided the horrific pictures.
Obviously there was no game. No haircut, either. I called Phil to tell him I wouldn't be in and he seemed surprised. I told him to take a look outside, where downtown was being evacuated and people were being prevented from entering.
I found out the next day that a friend's uncle had been in his corner office on an upper floor of the first World Trade Center building that was hit. He went to work on an ordinary Tuesday and an hour later was gone without a trace. Tragedy compounds when you can attach a name and face to it.
Baseball was ready to come back that weekend, but wisely followed the NFL's lead and stayed out. Bud Selig was on TV, blathering on about how baseball is a "social institution" that needs to be sensitive and I wanted to choke the gasbag for using that moment for self-congratulations.
All I remember after that is watching TV constantly. When the weight of the grim news was too much, I'd escape to TV Land for a random half hour of "Leave It To Beaver" or "Gomer Pyle." The loopy innocence of the Cleavers and the silliness of Gomer provided an oasis.
Eventually we went back to the ballpark and it was strange. The loud music had been toned down. Vince Lascheid was playing soft cocktail lounge music on the organ. A freelance assignment had me collecting fan in the stands reaction. I remember one well-dressed guy telling me he was there because the President said Americans should go back to what they normally do. "I have season tickets," he said. "I go to ball games."
The Mets wore caps saluting New York's firefighters, police and emergency workers. Manager Bobby Valentine was late getting in because he'd helped the relief efforts staged in Shea Stadium's parking lots. The Pirates went to New York a couple of weeks later. A few members of the traveling party went to Ground Zero. I remember Lloyd McClendon saying the scene made him mad enough to want to fight and sad enough to want to cry.
Seven years later, we have bag inspections and patdowns as we enter Heinz Field for a Steelers game. A guard who addresses you by name insists on seeing photo ID. Every day has changed in some way because of that day.

• The prothrombin time (PT) of a patient undergoing warfarin sodium anticoagulation became elevated when sulfisoxazole was given concurrently. The warfarin dose index is used to demonstrate that this PT prolongation was the result of a warfarin-sulfisoxazole interaction. The mechanism of this interaction may involve displacement of warfarin from serum albumin. Sulfisoxazole should be used cautiously, if at all, in patients taking warfarin.

WILMINGTON — The genius of the highly entertaining revival of Cole Porter's 1934 musical, Anything Goes, is that it makes the show's faults so egregious that they become virtues, and its virtues even better by including more of them.
The strength of the resuscitated musical, which had a two-year run in New York and is at the Wilmington Playhouse through Nov. 26, is its wonderful Porter score, including such songs as "Anything Goes," "I Get a Kick Out of You," "You're the Top" and "Blow Gabriel Blow." To these have been added ''It's Delovely" and "Friendship" from other Porter shows. The additions fit right in, providing more strong musical scenes for a show that already has plenty of them.

[QUOTE=BestBetter;871502]I think I'm fascinated with Missouri like you're fascinated with Australia...seriously. It's one of the few states I haven't been to yet, so I'm letting the anticipation get a little out of control. How would you describe your experience living there?[/QUOTE]
My experience in Missouri is twofold- since I lived separately with mom and dad. With mom, we lived mostly in the suburbs with my grandparents (post-divorce, when I was 7), then, our suburb still had woods to explore, plenty of green yard with trees. We shopped at fancy grocery stores, and my grandparents cooked fattening foods: lots of pasta with cream sauce, biscuits and sausage, rice made with sugar and milk, barbecued everything, cassaroles with cream, milkshakes for dessert. We kids ran around from sunup to sundown, building forts, but still got chubby.
Life at my dad's (post-divorce) was in the country on a Morgan horse farm, in the latter years (earlier we lived in an upscale lake/country club private subdivision). In either case, at Dad's we were always out on the lake swimming, or later, at the farm, working horses, tending chickens, bailing hay, cleaning stalls. The land is BEAUTIFUL!! Rolling green hills, plenty of rugged trails for weekly hikes, local wineries within a stone's throw. My grandmother lives in southern Missouri, in Ironton, on a mini-mountain, in a large, multi-storied log home my family built. She lives near Elephant Rocks, a wonderous place to play in the water.
my husband and I live a block away from the St. Louis City limits, in a charming, historic, very walkable town, full of quirky shops. There are about seven parks within walking distance to us. the farmer's market is five blocks away.
Here are some pics of Taum Sauk, Elephant Rocks, and Forest Park:

I do what I call "Paleonola" when I can't stomach another egg for breakfast: 1/4 cup chopped nuts (mostly raw macadamias with some almond and hazelnut for fun), coconut chips (Nutiva brand, organic, unsweetened, raw), a sprinkle of dried fruit (raisins and cranberries are faves) with milk of choice. Best of all, doesn't get soggy! I tested it recently to see if it would sustain me and I got to 2pm without getting hungry, so the insulin kick didn't seem to bother me. But definitely a sometime treat.
The Paleo Periodical
It's not a Diet. It's a lifestyle.
Here is another great breakfast ceral or topping for yogart
Grain-Free Granola Theme & Variations.
Core Ingredients:
1kg raw almonds (soaked if possible)
500g raw walnuts (same)
150g coconut flakes or grated coconut
3 egg whites
Optional - 2T sweetener (either maple syrup, or xylitol & a pinch of stevia)
tsp almond extract or vanilla
1. Preheat oven to moderate, and line metal trays with foil or paper. I have Xtrema ceramic bakeware, so I use them as is - nothing sticks too firmly, and there's no liner waste.
2. Using about a cup of nuts at a time, depending on blender size, process nuts in a deep or sealed bowl until chunks are at the desired size. You can also chop the nuts by hand if you're keen for a long, steady workout.
3. Place prepared nuts in a large bowl, and add coconut.
4. In a small, dry bowl, beat egg whites until smooth, glossy peaks form. Add sweetener, and stir thoroughly.
5. Add egg mixture to nuts & coconut, and stir thoroughly until no egg foam is visible and everything has been coated. If you feel the egg didn't stretch far enough, whip up another white and add that to your bowl.
6. Spoon nut mixture onto bakeware, keeping the layers no thicker than an inch high.
7. Bake in oven for around 10 minutes, or until the top layer starts to become golden.
8. Remove from oven and stir mixture to bring uncooked nuts to the surface and to break apart any lumps. Replace in oven and bake for another 10 or so minutes, watching for burning. You may need to repeat this step if your batch is cooking unevenly (if you're oven is anything like mine, you'll be in this situation for an extra 20 minutes or so of stirring and replacing).
9. When cooked to your liking, remove from oven and allow to cool thoroughly before storing in an air-tight container. Don't worry if your cereal pouring container is adulterated with gratuitous corn flake imagery:
Serve with berries & cream (or coconut cream) for best results, but is also good with straight raw milk, or so I'm told. Personally, I could eat it like trail mix, by itself, so long as there's no sweetener added to the batch!
(NB: If the SAD's portion distortion has you thinking that a normal serve of such foods is upwards of two cups, I'd like to point out that just half a cup of Nola will satisfy you, especially if served with cream. The beau, being a tall boy, tends towards a full cup serving, with his milk. Eat slowly, enjoy, and listen to your leptin receptors.)
Sunny Nola - After baking, add dried fruit such as sultanas, chopped apricot, goji berries, and even dried apple slices. Good for those with a sweet tooth or those who use carbs after a workout.
Seedy Nola - add sunflower or pumpkin seeds to the chopped nuts before adding the egg whites.
Norridge (Nola Porridge) - after baking, put batch through the food processor to create a semi-fine meal. Fantastic served with warmed milk, cream or coconut cream, or just add hot water and cooked fruit.
PumpkiNola - warm and add canned or previously roasted and pureed pumpkin to your bowlful of Nola, and stir thoroughly. Top with cream, and enjoy a hearty treat!
A lovely, breakfast for those mornings where you just can't face eggs and bacon. I clearly don't understand your mind-set, but I hear there are such people out there...
***another good one I really like is half and apple diced and a TBLS of almond butter micro tell apples are soft then mix it up..
I tried this recipe today. The only way it was edible was with the strawberries. I thought I would really like it, but ... not so much, unfortunately

I had it for breakfast and enjoyed it, but I only had frozen strawberries, so I heated the whole thing up in my microwave. Yum!

King Britt Presents The Cosmic Lounge, Vol. 1
In the early '70s, jazz got spacey, Afro-spiritual, and overwhelmingly weird. From Sun Ra to Alice Coltrane to Pharoah Sanders to Kalaparusha Maurice McIntyre, artists began incorporating synths, African percussion, flutes, chanting, tablas, mbiras, and all manner of other exotic instruments into album-side----long pieces with titles often in Swahili or Hindi.
DJ King Britt has compiled 11 relatively concise and lesser-known examples of this decade-long musical left turn and sequenced them (without mixing) into a trance-inducing yet thrilling glimpse of the way things used to be. Herbie Hancock's disc-opening "Kawaida" features a recitation of the principles of Kwanzaa over synths and flute; trumpeter Eddie Henderson, a member of Hancock's pre-Headhunters band Mwandishi, blows hot 'n' funky on the shimmering, rattletrap "Scorpio-Libra"; and Don Cherry's "Moving Pictures for the Ear" mixes North Africaninfluenced percussion with chanted vocals. (In fact, chanting or other vocalizations adorn seven of the disc's 11 tracks.)
Elsewhere, Mtume, the percussionist in Miles Davis's mid-'70s Afro-funk-metal band, offers the sizzling "Yebo," while trombonist Grachan Moncur III's "Space Spy," from his 1969 BYG album New Africa, is one of the most organic and least baroque pieces here. Other, weirder tracks by Flora Purim, Brother Ah, Michal Urbaniak (siring a cello-led skronk-funk workout reminiscent of Miles's On the Corner), and Detroit-based trombonist and Tribe Records co-founder Phil Ranelin's ensemble are also featured. Doug & Jean Carne close out the disc, adding vocals to John Coltrane's "Naima," transforming the trackand, for a short while, jazz as a wholeinto an astral-traveling meditation.

Analyst's advice: 'Shutter Voom and focus high-definition efforts on core cable business'
Bucking an industry trend that has soured Wall Street on cable companies, Cablevision Systems Corp. said yesterday that it gained nearly 7,500 cable TV subscribers in the second quarter.
But its Voom nationwide satellite TV venture posted an $81.5-million loss in the quarter ended June 30, contributing to a $187-million overall loss for the company, compared with a $158-million profit in the second quarter of last year. Revenue jumped 25 percent to $1.2 billion.
Jericho-based Voom, which launched in October, had only 25,000 subscribers nationwide as of June 30 and has been losing one in five new customers as it struggles with various technical and marketing hurdles. Its second-quarter loss was bigger than its $55-million loss in the first quarter. Recently, Voom raised prices to cut back on its losses. As part of an effort to gain new financing, it promised to cap future investments in the service at $150 million a year and $600 million total.
Analysts are skeptical
"We would urge management to shutter Voom and focus its high-definition efforts on its core cable business," said Fulcrum Global Partners analyst Richard Greenfield, pointing out that 83,000 of Cablevision's subscribers have taken high-definition set-top boxes. The strength of Cablevision's iO digital-TV service helped it buck the industry subscriber trend, executives said. Nearly 110,000 additional customers signed up for iO, topping 1,165,700, or about 40 percent of its 2.95 million cable TV subscribers.

DETROIT — A judge ruled Friday that Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick be released from jail, pay a $50,000 cash bond, wear an electronic tether and not be allowed to travel.
Kilpatrick spent Thursday night in a one-man jail cell with no TV and a phone only for collect calls, the consequence of violating his bond in a criminal case that has dogged him for months.
But Wayne County Circuit Judge Thomas Jackson altered the ruling of a Detroit district court judge who ordered the mayor to jail a day earlier for violating the terms of his bond.
Jackson says District Judge Ronald Giles went too far in ordering the mayor to jail. He followed the prosecution's recommendation for setting the new bond, which defense attorney Jim Thomas called "piling on."
Michigan's attorney general says he's bringing assault charges against Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick after the mayor had a physical confrontation with a detective trying to deliver a subpoena.
The mayor faces two counts of assaulting or obstructing a police officer in the furtherance of their duties. Each felony count brings up to 2 years in prison or a fine of $2,000.
The mayor already faces perjury, official misconduct and obstruction of justice charges stemming from his testimony in a civil trial last year.
Attorney General Mike Cox announced the charges at a press conference in Detroit on Friday.
Kilpatrick was jailed Thursday for violating his bond, but was ordered to be released on appeal earlier Friday if he paid a $50,000 cash bond.
"In my almost 20 years, first as a prosecutor and now as an attorney general ... I cannot recall ever seeing let alone hearing of a situation where a police officer trying to serve a subpoena was assaulted," Attorney General Mike Cox said at a press conference to announce the charges.
Separately, the mayor and a former top aide are charged with perjury, misconduct and obstruction of justice, all tied to their testimony in a civil trial last year. At the heart of that case: steamy text messages contradicting their claim that they didn't have a romantic relationship.
To remain free while the case moves through court, Kilpatrick was required to notify authorities about business that required out-of-state travel.
He admitted violating that condition when he went to Windsor, Ontario -- minutes from Detroit -- on July 23 to discuss the sale of the city's portion of a tunnel connecting the U.S. and Canada. He didn't call prosecutors or 36th District Court.
"I'm asking for another chance," the mayor pleaded Thursday to Judge Ronald Giles.
The judge's response was swift and surprising: Jail for the leader of the country's 11th-largest city.
"I don't claim to have a good understanding of what your responsibilities are. ... But I have to look at how the (court) system is run and perceived by the public," Giles told the mayor.
Defense attorney Jim Thomas called Giles' ruling "extreme." Parkman said they would propose an electronic tether or some other conditions to get Kilpatrick out of the county jail.
Kilpatrick was transported to jail in a sheriff's van, photographed, given a green jumpsuit and placed in a one-man cell for high-profile people.
Although not in the general jail population, the mayor was being treated like any other prisoner -- "no better, no worse," Sheriff Warren Evans said. Evans told WDIV-TV Friday morning that Kilpatrick had an "uneventful night" in jail and would be permitted to dress in civilian clothes for Friday's court hearing before Jackson.
In May, the Detroit City Council asked Gov. Jennifer Granholm to invoke a little-used state law and remove Kilpatrick from office for misconduct. A hearing is scheduled for Sept. 3.

U.S. Rep. Rob Andrews has bowed to public outcry and will repay his campaign account for nearly $9,000 in expenses associated with a June trip to Scotland so he and his family could attend a wedding involving a political donor who also serves as a consultant.
Good move — and done rather swiftly.
But we suspect this is not the last we will hear related to the 11-term congressman's campaign account.
Andrews still faces a likely inquiry by the Federal Election Commission. The Committee for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington says it plans to file a complaint against Andrews.
Andrews should welcome the inquiry. Best to get this out of the way now and thoroughly vetted prior to the 2012 campaign.
His opponent in 2010, Republican Dale Glading, questioned Andrews' use of campaign funds for meals down the shore and such items as fudge, salt water taffy and caramel popcorn. Andrews said the taffy, fudge and popcorn were small tokens of thanks for campaign contributors and that the seaside dining was to plan strategy as he campaigned.
The Haddon Heights Democrat is sticking by his guns as to use of campaign funds for the wedding stop in Scotland for his family and spending $10,000 for a 20th anniversary in the House of Representatives bash held on the same day he hosted a party to honor his daughter's graduation from a pricey prep school. Andrews said he kept separate lists for the party and even paid $6,000 in personal funds for the event.
"Our campaign has complied with all laws with respect to the proper expenditure and disclosure of campaign funds," Andrews said in offering to repay the $9,000 in campaign funds used for the wedding — money he further said would then go toward the homeless served by the Volunteers of America.
"It is apparent, however, that discussions about this issue will interfere with the work my constituents have entrusted me to do. There is nothing I value in public life more than the trust and respect of my constituents."
Here's a quick tip congressman — there is not a news outlet in these parts that won't look at your campaign expenditures one quarter from now.
Let's see if the only aroma coming from them are the smells of the Jersey Shore.

I could stay at Institute, says in-demand Lowry
Published 17/04/2009
Institute have received a boost, prior to their encounter with Glenavon, with the news that midfielder Philip Lowry may stay with the club, after all.
The Northern Ireland Under 21 international, who's contract ends in the summer, has attracted attention from a host of cross-channel clubs and Premiership title contenders Glentoran, but with a new contract offer on the table from 'Stute the teenager admits it would be hard to leave Drumahoe.
"Everyone knows I have been speaking to Coleraine, but I can definitely say that I haven't spoken to anyone connected to Glentoran," admitted Lowry.
"What my plans are is to continue playing for the remainder of the season, we still have three games to go and I want to give it my all in those matches and then I'll see what happens.
"Institute have offered me a new contract and to be honest I definitely wouldn't rule out staying. Institute have done a lot for me, whenever I joined them a few years ago I thought I wouldn't have played so many matches in the first team, but I did and haven't looked back since."
Meanwhile the Londonderry side welcome back centre-back David Ogilby after he sat out Tuesday's 4-0 win over Bangor through suspension, while striker Kevin Ramsey is also expected to return to the squad.
'Stute, who have collected maximum points against the Lurgan Blues having already beat them three times, go into this encounter in confident mood after storming back to winning ways with that victory over Bangor.
