For the first time in my life I was more than amazed seeing that people can actually enjoy a happy and long life without electricity, supermarkets or mobile phones. I was absolutely fascinated about the life stories of some peasants from Transylvania which found more happiness in daily activities like feeding little kittens with fresh milk or reaping grapes in the autumn. Those people were truly happy and very connected with the community and the nature, nothing from their household was ever wasted and everything was so logical organized and clean that even the gardens of those over 70 years were impeccable. I was impressed with their strong sense of humor and verticality and for me, meeting them, was a true life lesson.
Raphael, Paris
Nestled against the majestic Carpathian Mountains, Transylvanian villages are simply adorable! From above, they simply look like small crowds of houses in the middle of nowhere but when you walk among them, the view is totally different. Coquette gardens, flower pots in the windows, old ladies sharing stories sitting on benches outside the yard, kids playing, everything is so alive! Seeing all that was for me a complete new universe and a great experience.
Patricia, Los Angeles
For me and my 14-years son visiting Transylvania was the best choice ever! I couldn't be happier when I heard him saying that, for the first time in his life, he tasted food better than anything tried so far, better even that his favorite cheeseburger from home! So you could imagine how happy I was seeing him eating, by his own initiative, lots of greens, fresh tomatoes and home-made bread. He even made me promise to start growing our own vegetables in our back yard. Apart of all the wonderful places we saw, we really enjoyed the food which was incredible simply prepared and yet, incredibly tasty.
Clare and Luke, Quebec
When closing my eyes, thinking of the beautiful journey in Romania, there is one image that comes in my mind immediately: the hands of the old lady that weaved the hair of the future bride while singing traditional wedding songs. Of course, the bride was just playing a role in order to show us exactly how a traditional wedding is held but there was something magical in all this ritual. As the lady told us, across the years, she traditionally waved the hair of many future brides, as each ritual, including that, is believed to hav a strong influence on the bride's future so there were no place for mistakes.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are the most influential identical twins around. They stumbled into the limelight as babies in the television show 'Full House' and then quickly graduated to blockbuster movies, various clothing lines and writing books--all the while becoming fashion icons in their own right.
The Olsen twins have achieved so much in such a short period of time and I'm sure that they will continue to make their mark on pop culture.
Take a look at the gallery for some truly awesome Olsen finds!

... it really cuts down the visitors that actually make it into the gorge. If not for the jam, I can only imagine how insanely crowded this area would be – afterall, there were already a LOT of visitors!!

But little would prepare us for what was coming ...

Dear Dominik,
For luck, I like to carry around a piece of green aventurine and a piece of lodestone in my pocket. Be sure to cleanse the stones when you first get them, hold them in the palms of your hands, and see/think/sense/feel all kinds of good luck flowing into those gemstones. Put them into your pockets and carry them around with you. Recleanse and recharge them once a week.

I want to compare two models via Voung's statistic (1989). This statistic is
implemented in the zip- and zinb command, but not in other types of

text: ATLANTA, Nov. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) today capped a three-day celebration of veterans with a $350,000 gift to the Fisher House Foundation at Reagan National Airport (DCA) in Washington, D.C. The airline kicked off its military salute in Atlanta on Friday, Nov. 9, with the dedication of the "Spirit of Freedom," a Boeing 757 honoring men and women who currently serve or have served in the U.S. Armed Forces, including more than 10,000 Delta employees.

Congressman John Kline, Minn., who serves on the House Armed Services Committee and is chairman of the House Education and Workforce Committee, joined Andrea Newman, Delta's senior vice president – Government Affairs, and Tad Hutcheson, Delta's vice president – Community Affairs in presenting the gift to the Fisher House today. "Delta is a longstanding supporter of Fisher House, because we strongly believe in their mission of providing, without charge, a safe, comforting environment for families of service members during their medical stay," said Newman. "On behalf of Delta's 80,000 employees, I want to personally thank Fisher House for the tremendous work they do." The gift will support veterans and families receiving treatment at military medical centers. It comes in part from the Delta Sky Club®, which donated 10 percent of proceeds from new memberships purchased in July. During today's gate celebration at DCA, Delta employees handed out commemorative stickers to passengers in honor of Veterans Day. Atlanta On Friday, Nov. 9, Georgia Governor Nathan Deal, Delta CEO Richard Anderson, other military and elected officials, and hundreds of employees gathered at Delta's Technical Operations Center in Atlanta to mark the christening of the "Spirit of Freedom," which now bears a commemorative logo. "At Delta, we have an obligation to support our employee servicemen and servicewomen, our veterans and the millions of others on active duty who fly with us each year," said Anderson. "In honor of their brave acts of service, selflessness and sacrifice, we are proud to dedicate this aircraft."

I scream the pounding in my head burns. I hear Falcon run in with Rai screaming.
Ryan's arm is tight around me.
"Some one has Ebony" Ryan shouts over the screaming. Then it goes just like that it vanishes. Me and Rai look at each other in sink then run. We rush out the room following something that I can't see but can feel.
"Wait" Ryan shouts behind us but we're faster. I don't know how but we are.
Then the trail stops and we look around trying to find her, to find Ebony.
"It's gone cold" Rai whispers. I feel it to a cold sensation that starts at your finger tips then begins to vibrate through your whole body.
"We need to find her" I plead at Rai. She nods but her face is sad and full with worry.
Ryan and Falcon land close and walk over to us. "You shouldn't haven't run off like that" Ryan says sternly.
Falcon pulls Rai into his arms and kisses her head quickly savoring everyone.
"I'm sorry but.... we have to find her" I whisper. Then I feel it. I look upwards then hold out my hand.
A single back feather drifts down onto my palm. I here Ryan gasp and Falcon tenses his arms around Rai.
Rai forces him off and walks over studying the feather.
"Fallen" Ryan hisses.
"This is one of there's" I ask holding it up. Ryan steps back and I remember what he said about a touch being poisoness to angels.
"Oh, sorry" I mutter pulling it away from him.
"Burn it Spark" Falcon hisses.
"No.... I'm gonna use it" I smile at them and they look at me confused. I consentrate on the feather and feel my eyes begin to glow.
I watch Rai follow my lead and her eyes glow aswell.
Then we see him, flying swiftly through the skys an unconcious Ebony in his arms. I smile snatching the feather tightly burning it to a crisp.
"We know who took Ebony and we know where he's heading" I smile and look at Rai who looks back at the two Angel's.
"Pack your bags boys we're traveling to Athens" she says. Yet another journy in our life.

Revolutionary Search Marketing Agency Expands Operations to Australia and Beyond
A search marketing agency that specializes in bringing small & medium businesses new customers and guarantees results has seen stunning success in the United States and has branched out to Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.
Why you need internet marketing from Super Simple SEO
So, how do they do it? "We start with hard, honest work, just like any small business owner does" says David "and while our profit margin might not be as high as similar companies, we make up for that in client retention rate, which has been almost 100% since our inception. We are also one of the few agencies to have a sales staff that does not work on commission, and is instead dedicated to providing solutions that will help the customer rather than their own paycheck!" Super Simple SEO's retention rate is incredible, especially in such a competitive market.
As a small business owner myself, I understand the reticence surrounding a service that costs hundreds or thousands of dollars per month, so for a marketing company to have such a high retention rate, they must be doing something right. I asked David, and this was his response: "We make creating a positive ROI for our customers a top priority. Due to the nature of internet marketing, it typically takes between one and three months for a customer to see a return on their expenditure, but once they do, it's virtually always excellent. The process can be made much faster if the client elects to use our pay per click services such as Google's Adwords™. We also work with every business to create a custom solution to maximize their return on investment."
Apparently, Super Simple SEO's methods have worked well enough for the company to branch out overseas and to provide services to most English speaking countries, including Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. "We'

Hey Jealousy.
May 1997
"Congratulations, class of 1997!"
Our caps went spinning up towards infinity and suddenly everyone was hugging everyone else. I felt two small hands slip into mine and looked down to find my on-again, off-again girlfriend Lisette standing there, smiling up at me. She stood on tiptoe and pecked me on the lips.
"Congrats, babe! We're officially high school graduates now."
I hated it when she called me babe. But we were on the on-again stage of our endless cycle at the moment and I figured it was probably best not to rock the boat. Especially since the party tonight was being held at her place.
As we walked out of the auditorium, Lisette kept up a steady stream of chatter, gossiping about who showed up wearing a bikini under their graduation gown and who had the dumb idea to try and sneak beer into the graduation ceremony. I tuned her out, scanning the crowd. I told myself I was looking for my parents, but the truth was I was looking for Ingrid. She had half threatened not to attend the ceremony last week on the basis that she hated absolutely everyone in our graduating class. Those had been her exact words.
"Except for you, Jack. You're all right," she'd said with a crooked grin, and then ruffled my hair, an action that sent Lisette into an apoplexy of rage, causing her to stomp away from our cafeteria table.
"Was it something I said?" Ingrid asked nonchalantly as she helped herself to some of my fries.
Meanwhile I could only shrug, as I stared glumly at the rapidly disappearing figure of my (ex?) girlfriend.
We'd patched things up again that evening, Lisette and I, but she'd had a few choice words for me before I was able to smooth things over.
"I just don't know what you see in that girl. She's bad news. You should just drop her."
"God, Lisette, you sound like an overprotective mother. And besides, I've been best friends with Ingrid since the seventh grade. I can't 'just drop her.'"
"Oh, so you're saying you put her above me. I see how it is," she'd retorted, folding her arms angrily across her chest as her eyes flashed fire at me. I'd had to breathe deeply and count to ten to avoid saying something I knew I would regret later. Women. All they did was twist our words to their advantage.
"Of course I don't put her above you. You're my girlfriend."
Somehow that had been enough to appease the green-eyed monster. But not for long.
I spotted Ingrid near the exit to the auditorium. She had already changed out of her cap and gown, the latter of which she was carelessly dragging across the ground. She stood in a pair of faded jeans and a cut-off tank talking to my parents, her own parents standing behind her. My older brother and sister, Joe and Angie, both down from college, were standing to the side, chatting. Angie had a bunch of balloons clutched tightly in her fist and I groaned, hoping against hope they weren't for me. Just then she spotted me and began waving wildly, the balloons thwacking innocent bystanders. I groaned some more.
"I'm so sorry," Angie apologized to an irate older man who was berating her quite loudly in Spanish. Then she turned and enveloped me in one of her bear hugs, unceremoniously dumping the balloons on Lisette.
"Oh my goodness, I can't believe my little Jack-in-the-Box has graduated high school! Where do the years go?"
I heard Ingrid's muffled laugh and saw my brother nudge her in the side. He was wearing dark sunglasses and a leather jacket and he had his hair slicked back. I saw Ingrid eye him appreciatively and I had to tear my eyes away for fear of giving away what I was feeling in that moment. I told myself I was just being overprotective, which I had every reason to be, my brother being the renowned lady's man in the family. He changed girlfriends with almost clockwork precision, practically a new one for every month. Come to think of it, I hadn't seen his latest number in a while, that tall, svelte Brazilian he'd been bringing by the house. So maybe he was on the prowl again, in which case… I squared my shoulders, confident now in my right to be protective of Ingrid.
It was just like Joe to start paying attention to Ingrid now that she was filling out her clothes a little better. Over the past year, she'd gotten her braces removed and she'd cut her hair short, the ends barely brushing the nape of her neck. Such a drastic change from the sloppy buns she normally sported had done something to change the contours of her face. Her cheekbones were somehow more pronounced now, lending her a more exotic air. She'd also joined the volleyball team, and the days spent playing on an outdoors court under the South Florida sun had baked her skin to a warm golden shade. In short, she'd come a long way from the way she used to look all those years ago when I first met her in seventh grade, when she wore long pigtails and had those unfortunate buckteeth. I found myself appraising her now with new eyes, appreciating her beauty for perhaps the first time.
"Earth to Jack, hello? Can you read me? Mrs. Gundt just congratulated you and you didn't thank her." My mom was waving her hand before my face and I blinked at her amused expression, confused.
It was the sound of Lisette's laughter that brought me back down to earth. It had a brittle, harsh quality to it, like the sound of glass shattering.
"Oh, I'm sorry Mrs. Gundt. And um, thanks."
Everyone laughed and the moment passed, but it took a while for the heat in my cheeks to subside.
After leaving the auditorium, we all went to my father's restaurant for a celebratory lunch. Lisette couldn't join us because she wanted to go get ready for tonight's party. I couldn't blame her pre-party jitters – everyone who was everyone was coming tonight. Lisette's father was one of the richest men in Miami, what with him being an entertainment lawyer who represented several local celebrities. They owned a mansion on Star Island which was regularly featured in home and design magazines. Despite this, nobody from school had ever set foot inside this mansion, except for Lisette, of course. It was a surprise to everyone that Lisette was hosting a party there, and it was safe to say that the entire graduating class of St. Theodore's would be attending tonight (along with a gatecrasher or two).
Angie, Joe, Ingrid, and I discussed the party over lunch. Angie and Joe had both graduated from St. Theodore's a while back, but they'd gone to school with an older sister of Lisette's and knew all about the famous mansion. As of yet, I'd not entered this sanctum sanctorum, despite the fact that I'd been dating Lisette for several months now. The closest I'd ever gotten to it was the front of the house when I was dropping off or picking up Lisette.
"Is it true her house really has five fountains made of solid gold?" Ingrid asked me as she slurped down the last of her soda.
"Nah, just one," I said as I blew a paper straw at her. Ingrid immediately retaliated by shooting ice at me through her straw, nailing me right on the forehead.
Mrs. Gundt shook her head good naturedly at us, sighing in mock exasperation. "Won't you kids ever grow up?"
"Never!" cried Ingrid defiantly, a mischievous sparkle in her jade green eyes that brought me back to seventh grade, remembering the first time I'd seen her with that look.
And then my brother burst my nostalgic bubble by reaching over and ruffling her hair. "Aw, you're such a cute kid," he cooed sarcastically. Ingrid simpered under his touch and I could only sit there, seething. Joe had no right to behave that way with her. He was turning 23 this year – he should be focusing on other girls, girls closer to his age.
And then Ingrid did something which made everything a million, billion times worse.
"Hey, you guys should come with us tonight. I'm sure Lisette wouldn't mind. Didn't you guys go to school with her sister Lynette?"
My brother cocked his sunglasses up, perching them above his brow as a militant gleam entered his eyes. I knew that look – I'd seen it before. It was the look he wore whenever he was about to move in for the kill.
"Hey, I think that's a great idea. Don't you, sis?"
Angie nodded and smiled. Of course she would agree. Joe's charm was infallible on all females. Even related ones.
It was all I could do to avoid putting my head into my hands and weeping out of sheer frustration.

David Cameron is being warned today by his own MPs that he must "refresh and revive" the optimism and "sunshine" that won him the Conservative leadership or risk losing the next election.
The call by the 2020 group of Tory MPs is echoed by Jesse Norman, the ringleader of the rebellion over Lords reform, who said British people are "crying out for leadership" and that some voters think "maybe these guys aren't on our side".
The Prime Minister's problems intensified last night as a new opinion poll showed voters preferred Ed Miliband and Boris Johnson to him. The Opinium survey for The Observer gave the London Mayor a net plus-30-per-cent approval rating compared with minus 21 per cent for the Prime Minister, while Mr Miliband's rose to minus 10 per cent following last week's Labour Party conference. A YouGov survey of voting intentions in The Sunday Times put Labour at 45 per cent, the Tories at 31 and the Lib Dems on 8 – a share that would return Labour to power with an estimated majority of 144 seats.
In an interview with The Independent on Sunday, Mr Norman, a rising star whose rebellion in July excluded him from a ministerial post in last month's reshuffle, said Mr Cameron had to balance the hard message of austerity with "hope and possibility".
Senior Tories are scrambling to declare the centre ground has not been deserted by Mr Cameron, following the Labour leader's speech which seized the mantle of One Nation for his party. But Jeremy Hunt, the Health Secretary, risked retoxifying the Tory party when he called for the abortion limit to be halved to 12 weeks – overshadowing the start of the Tory conference in Birmingham.
The climate change minister Greg Barker, chairman of the 2020 group of modernisers who make up about 25 per cent of the parliamentary party, told The IoS: "As we reach the halfway mark in Parliament, and the general election comes into view, people will be focused on the progressive centre ground of British politics, which is where general elections are won. As William Hague said, that is the ground that David Cameron staked out and we will not surrender it. This is not a small faction in the party, but a real, broad movement determined not only to remain on that ground, but actually refresh and revive the agenda that David Cameron inhabited in opposition and took into government."
The 2020 group of about 80 MPs are drawn from different intakes, but Mr Barker said: "All are united in having an optimistic outlook, ambitious for the country, ambitious for the party, and determined to retain the centre ground that David Cameron made his own."
In an attempt to seize back the agenda from the right, the 2020 group is conducting four commissions to set out a policy agenda for the election after next. George Freeman is overseeing the Economic Commission; Nadhim Zahawi the Governance Commission; Claire Perry, the co-chairman of 2020, is conducting a commission on the Green Economy; and Damian Hinds and Andrea Leadsom are overseeing the Opportunity Society.
Mr Cameron famously used his first conference speech as leader, in 2006, to proclaim "Let sunshine win the day" as he set out a vision for centrist policies on civic society, the environment and the NHS. Yet following the economic crash of 2008, he and George Osborne have stuck to a hardline agenda of economic austerity, with little optimism.
There is also dismay among some centrist Tory MPs at the progress of right-wingers such as Chris Grayling in the reshuffle.
In his interview, Mr Norman says: "The real issue in British politics is who has the authority and the credibility to speak to the British people about how you get through the current mess. I think the British people are crying out for leadership. One senses a kind of complacency in some parts of the party about Ed Miliband being a secret weapon for the Tories. I think it would be a great mistake to imagine that could be the case."
In an attempt to fend off criticism, the Prime Minister used an article for the Daily Mail yesterday to insist he was not tacking to the right. A senior Tory backbencher from the right of the party said: "Some have made the mistake of saying he has to persist in talking above the heads of the party, to the country, but conference is an important opportunity for David Cameron to talk to the party."
Last night the Tories announced a new cap on rail fares for 2013 and a third consecutive council-tax freeze for 2013-14, which the party said would save the average family £72 a year.

Redford Covenant is a relative newcomer to the high school football scene in the state of Michigan. Only three years old and with a student body numbering in the hundreds, the athletic programs compete in Class D (the states lowest level). Because of that, many coaches and scouts may dismiss it as a place to procure talent. This year, however, that would be a mistake. The Spartans have one of the Michigan's best prospects in jack-of-all-trades player, Jamonne Chester.
"I'm 6-2, 195, and I run a 4.5," Chester reported. "I play wideout, kick returner, punt returner, free safety, and cornerback. We did good (last year). We made it to the district finals and lost. I did good. I had 700 receiving yards, 12 touch downs."
Chester isn't by any means a burner, but he is a physical, sure-handed receiver that can be punishing to opposing tacklers. He models his game after an NFL All-Pro of similar stature. He believes fans will see the similarities when they watch him play.
"They'll see an aggressive receiver that runs crisp routes and doesn't take plays off," Chester said describing his game. "In the pros, (fans can compare him to) Reggie Wayne. That's my favorite receiver."
While it's clear that Chester is a good receiving prospect, his penchant for laying the big hit could make his ceiling even higher as a safety or linebacker at the next level. For the time being, though, he has his eyes on offense.
"Definitely receiver," he said regarding what position he wants to play. "That's where my heart is."
Interest from college coaches has been on the rise in recent months. Programs from across the region are starting get their feet in the door. The sooner the better for those interested because Chester's desire is not to have a prolonged recruitment.
"A lot of coaches have stopped by my school such as Purdue, Cincinnati, Ball State, Michigan State, and I've heard from a lot of Big Ten schools," said Chester. "Hopefully before my senior year (he can make his commitment) so I can just focus on playing football.
Stay tuned to GoBlue Wolverine in the coming days for a video interview and video highlights from Chester's junior season.

Excellent studio to go and unwind. Quite, peaceful and convenient location. Well equipped with even a lunchbox. James met with us and pointed us in all the awesome restaurants in the area. The Coconut Pie at Lock and Key Restaurant was the best tasting ever. Pool clean and refreshing. Landscaping was like a resort, nicely groomed. James was at our begging call if needed . ( Very convenient since it has been years since our last visit to the Island).The boat dock was wonderful to tie up our boat and not load it daily. The manatee and dolphins were quite visible from the dock. We even fished off the dock. We hope to return again soon!!
Perfect! This was the perfect place for the two of us to spend our vacation. It's so cute, neat, and clean! It has all the comforts and amenities of home. The location is perfect! It's 1-2 minutes to the pristine beaches of Manasota Key and to the wonderful restaurants of Englewood (grocery stores, everything). I can't say enough about how wonderful our "vacay" was and how great and "available" the property owners are. Southern Hospitality at it's best! 10 days was not long enough, It all seems like a dream now. We are counting down until next year, we will defiantly be back!
Our stay was amazing. It's very convenient to great restaurants and the beach. It's perfect if you are traveling with a boat, there is plenty of parking. The pool was very relaxing after a long day on the water fishing. The room was very clean and everything appeared to be brand new. The owner James, was very friendly and kind and helpful with all our questions. Overall my family had a great time and we hope to return in the near future.
We had amazing week we had are boat right at the dock which was very nice left ever morning to go island hopping and shelling and spending the day on the beach came back sunburn sticky and sandy in to the beautiful pool waiting for you when you get back , Then back to are clean cool condo. We then pick out one of are great restaurant in the area . Lots to do and great shopping too. I also want to say how amazing James the (Owner) was to us very helpful made are stay here very relaxing and trouble free. Thank You again James and WE"LL see you again. Five Star FOR SURE !!!!!
very clean, bed was a nice, I have back issues and I had no problems at all. Love how close we are to the beach and boating... would stay there again!
Our stay at James' Condo was just perfect. The time went by way too fast and we really didn't want to leave but I am sure we will be back. Everything in the condo is new and clean, it has everything you could need and nothing that you don't. It is the perfect amount of space for two people, the heated pool is great, and you are a short drive away from 4 different beaches.
James went above and beyond to make sure that we had everything we needed. He even overnighted us some items that we had forgotten in the condo. If you are looking for a place to stay in the Englewood/Manasota Key area and this condo is available I highly recommend that you stay here. You wont regret it.

An ultracompact, actively -switched optical parametric oscillator (OPO) has been realized that is only 30 mm in length, based on a semimonolithic microchip laser, a quadrupole deflector, and a monolithic periodically poled lithium niobate crystal. The OPO threshold was 550 mW when Nd:YAG was used as the gain material and 590 mW for , giving signal pulses of as much as in energy with Nd:YAG at 1 kHz and pulses with at 5 kHz, for 1.2- and 2-W laser diode pumping, respectively. The output was single frequency and could be tuned over the range 1540–3440 nm.

LeBron James Strips Down & Donates Clothing During Asia Tour [Video]
Ladies stay calm! LeBron James stripped down all the way down to his drawls during a recent trip to Taiwan as part of his Asia tour with Nike.
With a packed house, the Cleveland Cavaliers superstar took off his kicks before deciding to pull down his shorts and autograph them before throwing it into the crowd.
I can only imagine the riots that ensued in that crowd.
Check out the clip below.

Brad Pitt pulls along this gutsy, old-fashioned World War II epic by the sheer brute force of his charisma. Germany, April 1945. The battles have all been won; the war is all but over. But Hitler refuses to surrender, so the Allies make a final push, taking Germany one town at a time. Pitt is tank commander Don 'Wardaddy' Collier, a growling war horse whose men hero-worship him like he's the Second Coming. They're not alone. The camera adores Pitt's battered beauty. He is Adonis chiselled by a renaissance sculptor, left on a cliff edge to be pecked by gulls for a few hundred years. Like a Botticelli pin-up chewing on a wasp.
'Fury' strains to be a Great War Film but never quite gets there. After his assistant driver is killed in battle, Wardaddy is assigned wet-behind-the-ears new recruit Norman (Logan Lerman), a typist who's never been inside a tank. His first job is to clean his predecessor's blood and bits of face off the seat before Wardaddy takes him in hand like an overbearing father: 'You're no good to me if you can't kill Krauts.' Norman begs Wardaddy to kill him rather than make him shoot his first German. We haven't seen Pitt this switched on in years. His Wardaddy is 110-percent testosterone. Parachute him into an anti-war march, and he'd have the lot of them signed up for active duty in 30 minutes flat.
The battle scenes thunder and rage with a satisfyingly unadorned realism. Everything is covered in mud and there's plenty of authentically sweaty male bonding in the tank, the name of which gives the film its title. In places director David Ayer ('End of Watch') goes for the hallucinatory horrors of the great Russian war film 'Come and See'. Bodies pile up in heaps of limbs. Ordinary Germans, bombed out of their homes, tramp across the countryside like zombies, one woman still in her ripped wedding dress.
Sometimes 'Fury' feels like an anti-war film. If 'Saving Private Ryan' was about the goodness that survives during war, the message here is darker: war pulverises that benign spirit like bodies crushed under the caterpillar tracks of tanks. In a stomach-knottingly tense scene in a defeated German village, Wardaddy takes the kid Norman into a German flat where two young women cook them lunch. For Wardaddy, it's a breath of fresh air, letting a little civilisation in – until the rest of the tank crew storm in, bitter and jealous. War has stolen their souls, and Wardaddy is betraying them by taking this meal and acting as if nothing has happened. War brutalises men, and that's part of its lure. But then 'Fury' remembers it's a film starring Brad Pitt that requires heroism, and it grinds to a punch-pulling Hollywood ending.

Funny thing is that most tank soldiers were in their twenties and that makes that crew ancient. Apart from that, fury was a really good thought provoking anti war movie. Assumed anti war as even the most romantic part was brutal to say the least... Interestingly possibly the reason for Mr wet behind the ears post pubescent to get war angry. Powerful movie with some real reasons to double take at the recruitment office and maybe ask for a job from manpower instead. On the other hand, it did show the real factors that our truly heroic soldiers have done and continue doing to ensure our freedoms. Give it 4.5. A load better than inglorious.
Solid war film. Three and a half stars.
Brutal and mesmerising, this film takes an usually critical look at warfare. Memorable for the camaraderie and claustrophobia of the tank team's life at work, for a solid performance from Brad Pitt as the pugnacious team leader and some particularly gruesome shots of random body parts as obstacles to the progress of the tank. The conclusion is uplifting but still leaves ambiguity about the behaviour of the charactors and the morality of war. Thoughtful and thought provoking.
I had a guy night out to see a rare WW2 film to see Fury and enjoyed it more than expected. Rather than being a gung-ho inglorious type of film it you really do get to experience what it must have been like fighting in one of these death-traps. I liked the focus on the crew and Brad puts out a solid and thoughtful character. Worth a visit if you like realistic WW films and good male banter.

Product Description
Samyang 14mm f/2.8 IF ED UMC AS for Olympus FT
The lens comes with two ED lenses and two aspherical elements (hybrid and standard). All lenses have been covered with the highest-quality antireflective layers of new generation: UMC – Ultra Multi Coated. This optical construction as well as state-of-the art materials will allow you to take photos of the highest possible quality. Opinions and tests carried out by respected professional magazines and photography portals confirm the lens' unique quality. Optyczne.pl / Lenstip.com notices exceptional quality of this lens' resolution:
"To be perfectly honest, I simply cannot believe my eyes when observing performances of the developed Samyang. I don't remember such high MTFs in any wide-angle camera tested with D3x or D200. Samyang, even with maximum aperture, provides high MTF 50 reaching 44 lpmm, moreover results for f/4.0–5.6 are almost record-breaking:46–47 lpmm. It is worth to mention that the best and most expensive lenses tested with D200 scored 47–48 lpmm, but still you have to remember that D200 sensor allows to obtain 1–2 lpmm higher results than D3x. New Samyang is just utterly splendid in the frame centre! It provides significantly higher results than recommended Nikkon 14–24 mm f/2.8 with 14 mm focal length!"
Feel free to read the full review at http://www.lenstip.com/index.php?test=obiektywu&test_ob=239

WILLIAMSON – Today marks the first nationwide celebration of National Public Defense Day.
National Public Defense Day is celebrated on March 18, the anniversary of the US Supreme Court case, Gideon v. Wainright, that ruled that states are required under the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to provide counsel in criminal cases to represent defendants who are unable to afford to pay their own attorneys.
The case extended the right to counsel, which had been found under the Fifth and Sixth Amendments to impose requirements on the federal government, by ruling that this right imposed those requirements upon the states as well.
This year is the 53rd anniversary of that case.
The National Association for Public Defense (NAPD) is hosting a social media campaign to celebrate National Public Defense day.
In fact, the NAPD has created a Facebook event that states, "On the anniversary of the Supreme Court's Gideon decision, defender offices around the country will celebrate their hard work fighting routine injustices, upholding the Constitution, and siding with the marginalized."
According to the NAPD, "Thousands of public defenders, social workers, investigators, and administrators are essential to providing justice to persons accused of crime. Celebrate those heroes this Friday on Public Defense Day."
The West Virginia Lawyer Magazine recently published an article about Mingo County's own public defender and her work.
Teresa McCune has served as Mingo County's Chief Public Defender for 25 years. The article explains that McCune is the longest serving chief public defender in West Virginia.
The article continues stating, "After graduation, she ( McCune) returned to West Virginia, working for Legal Aid of West Virginia and briefly, in private practice. In 1990, she was asked by the local Bar to become the first Chief Public Defender for Mingo County."
In the article, McCune is questioned as to why she has remained in this job. McCune responded, "I love every aspect of this job. Before I took the position, I had not done a lot of criminal law. The minute I started doing it, I knew it was what I was meant to do. I love the work. I love the people I work with. It takes a special breed to be a criminal defense lawyer. All of the attorneys in my office are just brilliant. I learn something new every day. Why would I not stay in this job?"
