Camille: Blinded
I plopped onto my bed the first chance I had, sliding my valise under the frame and letting my exhausted mind and body rest a bit.
And then Eli showed up and decided to be a prick.
"Sleeping already, are we? Looks like someone is getting a little too old for showbiz."
The sound of his Brit accent alone made me want to bash my head into the wall.
"Oh shut up," I muttered, "You've got lots of wrinkles on that pretty face of yours."
"Well I can already spot some grey hairs in your raven locks, my dear."
My hands actually went to my ponytail for a split-second before returning, clenched, to my sides as I sat up against the wall of the coach.
"I could likely say the same for you, Blondie."
He looked like he would be making some kind of snarky reply but I beat him to it.
"Why were you so late today anyways? Was Lisette following you around again?"
Lisette was one of the various fire-juggling/swallowing/blowing performers, one who was utterly and completely smitten with Eli. And he very obviously didn't return that, but she didn't seem to get the message. It made for good entertainment, as well as some good emotional blackmail.
"No." he enunciated, as if talking to a child, "I'm sure she was busy getting to her own coach. I, on the other hand, was...busy in my own affairs."
I scoffed, but he took it as a sign to try and shoot me down.
"We both know that her brother Bruno is obsessed with you, so may I ask how you managed to arrive to these quarters so speedily?"
Damn him. Sure Bruno was always flattering me one way or another and...staring sometimes...but that didn't mean a thing. Bruno was just...nice. He didn't go physically chasing me around or anything.
Knock on wood.
"Actually, Bruno sees me as nothing more than a fellow performer, which your tiny brain clearly has no comprehension of because of your apparent lack of a soul and inability to understand emotion."
Ouch. I was getting better at this.
"I hate to break it to you sweetheart, but I'm not the college dropout here."
And then I lost it. I was seeing red, teeth gritted and a snarl coming up from my throat.
How dare he, my brain screamed, how dare he dishonor me, when he knows nothing of the pain I suffered! The fact that I could no longer pay for college, that I'd lost everything!
If I wasn't so out of it I would've laughed at Eli's somewhat guilty and otherwise taken aback expression.
But instead I launched myself at him with a battle cry, trying my level best to claw his face off. He managed to hold off my angered blows for the most part (seeing as I was blinded by my fury) but I left a long scratch down the side of his cheek, instantly feeling my emotion deflate when I saw blood starting to bead up to the surface of his skin.
One of my hands went up and touched the deep scar running down my own face instinctively and, feeling a stinging pain along the familiar ridges, I turned abruptly and sat back onto my bed, staring at the wall across from me.
Eli didn't move.
"Look, Cam, I'm-"
"Camille. I'm sorry. That was...insensitive."
I sighed and looked up, meeting his half-blue, half-brown gaze. My hulk-smash-fit had left a line of crimson going down his face.
Now the charmer had conveniently made me feel guilty. I sighed again and grabbed a first-aid kit from the trunk at the foot of the bed frame, gesturing for him to sit so that I could get around to disinfecting the mess I'd made.
The process was about halfway complete when he decided to be his stupid self again.
"So...does this mean you've accepted my apology?"
I stared at him skeptically before continuing.
"Yes, you idiot."
"Does this mean I can call you Cam from now on?"
I despised that nickname. Always had.
"Don't push your luck, bud."

The growing social use of illegal substances was blamed for a quarter rise in the number of people caught using cannabis since plans to downgrade it were announced in 2001. Cocaine arrests climbed by a fifth to a new record while crack-related offences also went up by a quarter.
Charities yesterday echoed Metropolitan Police chief Sir Ian Blair's recent warning that the trend was linked to casual drug use at clubs and at middle-class dinner parties.
The total number of drug offences in England and Wales in 2003 rose five per cent on the previous year to 133,970, the new Home Office figures showed. The 82,000 cannabis offences were the highest figures in five years.
Almost 7,000 people were dealt with for cocaine offences, up from fewer than 5,800 in
2002. Crack offences have shown a 326 per cent surge since 1997. However, there were falls in heroin and ecstasy-related crimes in 2003.
One in ten cocaine users were jailed and a third were handed a caution.
Richard Kramer, of addiction charity Turning Point, said: 'Drug use across the board is a growing social trend. These figures reinforce the need for the Government to invest more in prevention and treatment.'
However, Home Office minister Caroline Flint insisted: 'Drug misuse is broadly stable and any increases in arrests and seizures are likely to be a result of more effective police activity.'

I'll be the first to confess that I have eclectic musical tastes. (A common feature is that I almost exclusively like singer-songwriters, though.) So, standard disclaimers apply. Lately, though, I've been listening to Bell X1 a lot, though, and I wanted to share.
Bell X1 is a band from Dublin, Ireland. They popped up on my radar last Fall, a few months after we returned to the states. I don't even remember how I first came across them. But I liked the bit that I heard, and their Wikipedia page claimed they were the second most popular Irish band in Ireland after U2, which seemed like an interesting (if impossible to measure or verify) factoid. So, I bought their double live album, Field Recordings, released in 2012.
I played it often and continued to like it. Months later, I found myself on the band's website just after they'd announced their 2014 US Tour. One of the tour dates was to bring them to Maryland, where my in-laws live. So, I hatched the scheme of making a weekend of the concert, leaving the kids with their grandparents, and I bought a pair of tickets.
Shortly after buying the tickets, I bought their latest studio album, Chop Chop. I listened to it several times, but it didn't really click for me. I mentioned to a friend in Ireland that we were going to see them, and he shrugged (virtually) but said they were probably good live.
"Good live" was a dramatic understatement, though. They were fantastic live, particularly in an intimate venue. The musicianship, as the band members moved effortlessly from instrument to instrument was astounding, and, though they have a clear lead singer, they were all great vocalists, too. The lyrics were a bit easier to understand live, too, and I was moved by them. Not only that, but they played several songs from Chop Chop, and it really made those songs come alive for me.
My new favorite from Chop Chop is probably "Feint Praise". I like the overall message of the song, about the bankruptcy of conflict avoidance, and I love the description that faint praise has a "bitter aftertaste, like rust." But I also just love the almost-non-sequiter in the bridge, because it's just dripping with Irishness: "You must never squeeze the teabag // Leave it alone // What did it ever do to you?"
But the last song on Chop Chop has also really grown on me since the concert. It's an apocalyptic song called "The End is Nigh", but it's less about the end itself than about the people we'd choose to be with in the darkest of times. We saw Bell X1 on September 12, and the band had played in New York City the night before. They mentioned that they didn't play "The End is Nigh" though, because it seemed too "close to the bone" for that day. Some lyrical goodness from that one: "And flailing like a landed fish // Trying to get back to before his day went awry." I find that image both funny and deeply resonant.
But this post was actually prompted by the video below, which the band tweeted today. It's from that September 11 show in New York City. They played the same song in Annapolis the next night as their first encore. I don't think it gives you a great feel for the band's music, because they're really a "Pop/Rock Combo" (their description, in another song) that mostly plays original music, and this is an acoustic cover. But it gives you a feel for their incredible musical talent, even if the live audio recording leaves a bit to be desired. It's a song called "She's a Mystery to Me" written by Bono and The Edge for Roy Orbison, who popularized it.
Bell X1 "She's a Mystery To Me" from Patrick Glennon on Vimeo.
This afternoon, I also learned that the lead singer of Bell X1, Paul Noonan (on the right in the video), has a computer engineering degree from Trinity College Dublin. So, I guess that by itself explains just about everything about my newfound love for a random band from Dublin.

Jean-Claude Van Damme's excellent early flick, 'Kickboxer' is unfortunately getting the remake treatment and will star former UFC Champion Georges St. Pierre and WWE superstar Batista.
from Hollywood Reporter;
WWE star Dave Bautista and UFC welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre are stepping into the ring for Kickboxer. The project should draw keen interest at the Cannes Film Market, where Brian O'Shea's The Exchange will begin shopping the film to foreign buyers later this week. The 1989 film, directed by Mark DiSalle and considered a cult classic, starred Jean-Claude Van Damme and world kickboxing champion Dennis Alexio.
Producer Ted Field of Radar Pictures has been plotting the remake for a year, signing Hong Kong filmmaker Stephen Fung to direct. Fung's credits include the wildly popular Chinese martial arts movies Tai Chai Zero (2012) and Tai Chi Hero (2012).
Kickboxer also has signed stuntman and martial artist Alain Moussi as its lead. Moussi has worked in a number of Hollywood event films, including Fox's upcoming X-Men: Days of Future Past. His credits include Pacific Rim and White House Down.
"Alain is a star and will be an amazing leading man," said Field. "Like Vin [Diesel] in Riddick, Alain will make this movie very special, and this Kickboxer will be the start of an amazing franchise."
St. Pierre and Bautista's film credits include Captain America: The Winter Soldier and the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy, respectively.
"We have a visionary director, a strong Hollywood producer, great cast and an action-packed script based on a well-known property," said O'Shea. "What more can you ask for?"
Not sure if I would call Kickboxer a "well-known property" I guess Hollywood must be even more desperate these days than we thought. Lets hope Mr. Van Damme has a cameo role at the very least.

Justice Stevens criticizes 'flaws' in death penalty
Sun., Aug. 7, 2005, midnight
CHICAGO – Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens issued an unusually stinging criticism of capital punishment Saturday evening, telling lawyers that he was disturbed by "serious flaws."
Stevens stopped short of calling for an end to the death penalty, but he said there are many problems in the way it is used.
Recent exonerations of death row inmates through scientific evidence are significant, he told the American Bar Association, "not only because of its relevance to the debate about the wisdom of continuing to administer capital punishment, but also because it indicates that there must be serious flaws in our administration of criminal justice."
He said the jury selection process and the fact that many trial judges are elected also work against accused murderers. He also said that jurors might be improperly swayed by victim-impact statements.
In recent years Stevens has been influential in votes that barred states from executing mentally retarded killers and those who were juveniles when they committed their crimes.

Subcultures are a part of the larger culture
Some are voluntary and some are involuntary
One of the purposes of Multicultural Education is to increase the understanding of the subculture of Exceptionality and its relationship to other groups.
Promotion of Pride in one's own heritage and understanding of others
Foster positive attitudes toward diversity
Problems, Egocentric Problems of all cultural groups, Disagreement about curriculum, Racism and discrimination
Cultural Bias
Belief that only certain parts of a subculture (such as holidays and widely known practices) should be taught
How much the teacher understands his/her own cultural histories and bias
Which subcultures to include
What information should be taught
Use of Language
Deciding how to teach a diverse classroom depends upon the teacher's expectations of students and their abilities.
Teacher's own cultural heritage
Amount of students of a particular subculture in a given school, region, or state
Teachers must have a knowledge and understanding of their own cultures and biases to be able to maintain effective teaching strategies for the classroom.
Challenge, Students should be challenged, but not to where it is impossible to be successful on any given assignment
Mediation and Feedback
Responsiveness to cultural and individual diversity
Development of Social Skills, Cooperative Learning, Building Pride in one's cultural identity, Classroom Discipline
Teaching students to work for social change
Ethnicity should not be mistaken for education exceptionality, i.e., the inability to read or speak english may cause a particular child of a different ethnicity to have a disability, but this inability might be considered unimportant in a different culture.
Bias of the abilities of ethnic minorities
Bias of Screening Tests/Standardized Tests
RTI lowers the bias of the abilities of ethnic minorities through the use of CBMs.
Progress Monitoring, Curriculum Based Measurements (CBMs), Informal Measures
Testing Accomodations, Administration Modifications, Use of a bilingual dictionary, Use of Native Language
Personal Freedom
Pride of all groups
Respect for others' cultural heritage
Erosion of moral foundations
Undermining of the central purpose of schools: Academic competence

City Sights
"Good morning, Torri. Or, I should say afternoon. I hope you slept well," Ellie said, waking me up.
Glaringly bright sunlight was streaming in through the window. I squinted and blinked several times, and finally was used to it.
"What time is it?" I ask, rubbing my eyes.
"It's only one. I didn't want to wake you up if you needed the sleep. You must've had a pretty long day yesterday. I understand that adjusting is pretty difficult."
"Um, yeah... It was pretty long, I guess," I agreed. "Can I take a really quick shower and then I'll be ready to go?" I ask, remembering the shopping trip we'd planned. In all complete honesty, I was actually pretty excited. Ellie said that we were going to the mall, and I haven't been there since I was ten.
"Sure, go ahead."
"Thanks," I said, slipping out from under the covers. "I'll be in and out before you can say the alphabet backwards ten times," I stated.
Ellie laughed and nodded, exiting my room. I mentally kicked myself. This isn't my room. It's a room I've been allowed to sleep in.
I sighed and grabbed my duffel bag.
Six minutes later, I was dressed and ready to go.
I scrambled down the stairs, taking them two at a time.
"Wow, that was really quick. I'm impressed; I could never take a shower that fast," Ellie commented.
I smiled faintly.
After driving around the city for about a half hour (Ellie was showing me around; mainly all we did was drive past the school so I knew where it was)

Linklaters & Alliance has pulled off a coup by providing both UK and US advice on the listing of its first-time client Lastminute.com.
The firm clinched the deal to advise the internet firm – which specialises in last minute discounted bookings for everything from theatre tickets to international flights – on its initial public offering (IPO) on both the London Stock Exchange and Nasdaq for a reported £400m.
The Linklaters team is led by corporate partners Bill Hobbes and Bridgid Rentoul who are advising on the US and UK aspects of the transaction respectively, with principal support from intellectual property partner Anna Carboni.
Bird & Bird has acted for Lastminute since the company was founded in April 1998, but has had to make way for Linklaters on the IPO.
Graham Defries, a communications partner at Bird & Bird, says: "We advised on the letter of engagement with [lead manager] Morgan Stanley, but after that it said there was only one firm it would want to do the IPO and that was Linklaters.
"We remain its preferred lawyers, but Linklaters is very good at IPOs and we wouldn't want to claim the expertise in dual listings that it has. Freshfields and US firm Davis Polk & Wardwell are also reaping rewards on the listing.
"We have been supporting the IPO because we know the company inside out. After the IPO we will continue to do all its work."
Davis Polk and Freshfields are acting for investment bank Morgan Stanley.
Simon Witty, a corporate partner at Freshfields, is leading the firm's team advising on UK aspects of the deal, with support from employment partner Jocelyn Mitchell, tax partner Tim Ling and head of IP Avril Martindale.
Lastminute was founded by entrepreneurs Brent Hoberman and Martha Lane Fox, who are selling up to 25 per cent of their stake.

I'm with the OP on this one. My boyfriend and I reconnected after a 30 year separation. As we re-connected he discussed his liver cancer and so I became an expert on it. I'm fortunate to have the skills and knowledge to research and understand the medical literature.
As I reviewed his meds, I realized he was taking two different antipsychotics and something to sleep (among other drugs to alleviate the symptoms of the cancer). I asked his doctors about it (he had six different doctors because he was treated at the VA). He was diagnosed with depression, anxiety, and "psychotic disorder not otherwise specified".
Turns out, advanced liver cancer like his can cause psychotic symptoms when the liver fails to de-toxify the body normally. If you fix the liver or treat the patient with a simple (but expensive) antibiotic all the psychiatric problems decrease or are elminated. His primary doc refused to do this because he didn't want to risk a secondary infection. The rest of his docs just deferred to him. I showed them the medical literautre I found which demonstrated that to be low risk; in addition, the benefits would FAR outweigh those small risks.
They still refused. I figured they were more concerned with the cost so I took him to a civilian oncologist who reviewed his records and spent considerable time with him. He got the antibiotic and we weaned him off the psych meds. The improvement was absolutely amazing. Unfortunately, he died while waiting for a transplant, but that's a whole other rant against the incompetent VA.
Bottom line - be an informed consumer and stand your ground. If you can't, get someone to advocate for you. Psychiatric drugs are NOT always the answer.

Shame on me ?

I landed in a "dry out" facility after getting hooked on pills and screwed up by psychiatry in the first place ! Of course I rejected further chemical "help".
You are going to diagnose my complaint as "ironic" , a "rant" and a reason I should have started taking the kind of pills YOU are hooked on to function in life ? I feel sorry for you living life in that disabled chemical haze of psych meds with the health problems and sexual dysfunction ALL those pills cause. That has to be a real drag for YOU.
Philippe Martineau doesn't know a damb thing about alcoholism or addiction , if he did he would know the number one complaint of newly recovering people is "nothing seems fun sober" and wouldent push those "make you a flat zombie with no creativity" mood pills on his patients. What do I know ? I know I am one of the only 5-10 % that make it in recovery and those zombie all day pills just made sobriety suck and partying seem like a better option.
I see Philippe doesn't work for those clowns Recovery Resources Inc now called "Oceanside Detox" and "The Recovery Team" in Juno Beach anymore, maybe he does have a clue, just maybe. Maybe he quit cause he didn't like being Stephen Gumley's little b**** helping him practice medicine without a licence anymore.

Typical defence of psychiatry: blame the victim and thier so called "lack of insight"... use some fancy words to blame people who decide against destroying their health and mind with psychiatries chemical straight jackets.
Psychiatry made me sick for years, got me started on addictive pills and never got me "sober", of course I rejected it.
I am one of the 5-10 % of people that actually recovered from alcoholism and addiction. The number one complaint of people recovering from alcholism and addictions is "Nothing is fun sober". Shame on me for rejecting this stupid idea that taking this make-U-a-Zombie "medication" that disables my brain and blocks my abilty to feel pleasure from life is the way to recover from alcoholism and addiction ? Are you kidding ?
I feel sorry for you still stuck on those pills that keep you sick. That has to suck.
Maybe this video will help you figure out how you fell for the scam. http://youtu.be/eOScYBwMyAA

Shame on you
SUBMITTED: Thursday, December 12, 2013POSTED: Thursday, December 12, 2013
First off, I've been a lab rat for 20 plus years by less than competent physicians of all kinds. After 20 plus years of suffereing I, by mere chance, ended up in Dr. Martineau's office. That said, let's lay that aside for a moment and address your ignorance with regards to psychiatry, but before that, allow me to give credit where credit is due.
No, psychiatrists don't really udnerstand the mechanisms by which many diseases of the mind are driven, as unlike other parts of the body that have defective portions, it's easily viisble in an autopsy, ie a bad valve in the heart. Now, that said having been a suffering, and do to the stigma associated with the diagnosis of Bipolar type II,, I suffered FAR longer than necessary because of the ignorance of people like yourself. I too am an addict, but one only need look as far as your behavior and wonder why you chose to willfuly become an addict, and yes, some people certainly do, but here's the issue withour comments, and I'm no stranger to AA nor NA....they'll always ask you this: "Your way got you here, why don't you allow those with more knowledge to give you the guidance for a way that might just work".
Lobomatmy pills...great....and Bipolar, major depressive disorder amoint a great many other diseases of the mind simply don't exist. Your ignorance, when coupled with what at the BARE minimum woudl be considered legitimate OCD in excessive drinking, is laughable.
Now, back to Dr. Martinueau. I'm sorry you had a bad experience, but when you go on rants like you did in this post, coming out of an alcohol treatment program, that sure seems like traditional mania to me, and as for your "lobotomy pills", that's another sure sign of mania because you are flying like a kit and believe yourself to be God or better.
Fortunately, I'm not afflicted with Type 1, but Type II is no cakewalk and it's f**ked up my life for 2 plus decades, so dogging out a Dr. because you refused their treatment regimen, is irresponisble at best, and libelous at worst. You have an issue, and dual diagnosis seems probable....at the end of the day, I take your so called "lobotomy pills", and I'd be more than willing to go head to head with you in any intellectual pursuit, every bit as much as a physcial pusuit and let's see if my lobotomy pills show me to be inferior.
You are a afraid and your fear is apparent, and in truth, there's NOTHING wrong with being afraid. The problems arise when you refuse to face your fears and deny your struggles and blame the psychiatric practics as a whole as charletans, and where many are, and where many medication action aren't fully understood, 6 months ago I didn't go a single day without tears and an obsession with killing myself. Today, my career is blossoming after a 20 plus year downturn because of my illness. Yes, overprescribing is an issue, but your issue is yourself, just as mine was prior to meeting Dr. Martinueu.
What's most ironic, is your rant, is validation of his apparent request to put you on mood stablalizers though your points about withdrawal aren't invalid, but where youv'e failed is to understand how you ended up in a dry out facility in the first place. If you had such a grand and successful plan you'd never have found yourself there, so since your method has worked so well, keep making decisions that destroy your life and body and blaming everyone but yourself.
Dr. Martineau, I'm grateful for having met you, and while things aren't perfect, they are a hell of a lot better because I was fortunate enough to find a Dr. that actually gave a s***.
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?

Before the conception of the Virgin Mary, Joachim, her father, had attempted to make an offering at the Temple in Jerusalem, but was rebuked and turned away by the high priest because he was still without child. The painting for this study has not been identified, but the subject traditionally appeared on altarpiece wings, which would explain the unusually tall, narrow format of the drawing.

City jobless rate drops to 3.6%
Local unemployment numbers dropped in December, according to a report released by the Kansas Department of Labor (KDOL) Tuesday.
Manhattan's unemployment rate fell to 3.6 percent in December 2011 from 4.1 percent the previous month. It also fell from December 2010 when it was 4 percent. The Manhattan metropolitan statistical area, which includes areas of Geary, Pottawatomie and Riley Counties, and Riley County saw similar decreases in December.
The Manhattan MSA's unemployment rate fell to 4.7 in December from 5 percent the previous month and from 4.9 percent during the same month in 2010. Riley County's unemployment rate fell to 3.7 percent in December from 4.2 the previous month and from 4.1 during the same month in 2010.
The state's unemployment rate was 5.9 percent, also slight over-the-month and over-the-year decreases.
"The continued steady decline in the Kansas unemployment rate is positive news, as is the over-the-year private sector job growth," Kansas Secretary of Labor Karin Brownlee said. "As we start a new year, we would all hope for these trends to accelerate at a faster pace."
Six of the 11 major industries in Kansas reported over-the-year job gains. These gains were primarily in the following areas: professional and business services with a 5.7 percent increase, manufacturing with a 3.8 percent increase and education and health services with a 2.6 percent increase.
However, five of the 11 major industries in Kansas reported over-the-year job losses. These losses were primarily in the following areas: information with a 8.3 percent decrease, financial activities with a 5 percent decrease and trade, transportation and utilities with a 1.1 percent decrease.
"Employment levels were pushed up in December partly by favorable weather conditions that allowed construction activity to remain elevated through the end of the year, and partly by an increase in federal government hiring," Tyler Tenbrink, KDOL economist, said. "This helped offset lackluster increases in retail trade during the holiday season."

Not really; we did this all manually in the FC5 timeframe for the failed-to-build-with-mock bugs. Just need a generic blocker bug, then individual package bugs that block the blocker bug, then my tool prints out a nice report of what's known to be bad, and what's bad but has no bug filed. > Regarding the packages that built successfully, can you check if > they at least look reasonably similar to the fc6 binary? > We should probably also look into rebuilding packages which > - do not have the same set of files or file permissions > - have different dependencies > - contain files that changed in size more than a given > percentage (e.g. 10%) during recompiling My tool runs rpmlint and rpmdiff against all packages as they're built and leaves the resulting logfiles in the result/ directory of the package. I don't have anything that will parse them for anything though. I'd be happy to run such a parser if it existed (hint hint).

Norma Rae Parent Review
Movie Review
The ladies lead out when a textile mill is finally brought to a stop in the pro-union movie Norma Rae. Released in 1979, the film garnered a Best Actress Oscar for Sally Field, who plays the title character, as well as a nomination for Best Picture.
NEW: Listen to our Parent Previews Podcast and take control of media and technology in your family!
Norma Rae has a reputation in the small Southern community where she works in the factory by day and spends many of her evenings keeping the men in town happy. She sees herself as a "no one" with nothing to look forward to but more days in the stifling heat of the noisy, dirty factory.
Then a fast-talking, New York union organizer named Reuben Warshowsky (Ron Liebmana) shows up in town. He is hell-bent on pressuring the locals into forming a labor alliance. Unfortunately unions are about as popular in this rural village as Communists are.
Not to be deterred, he begins handing out flyers with a call for action. Still, most of the workers and mill owners are suspicious of Reuben and his big city ideals. Many are worried about putting their jobs on the line in favor of change. Norma Rae however is inspired by his rousing speech in a local hall. She has seen what the grueling labor has done to her parents (Pat Hingle, Barbara Baxley) and friends. She finally agrees to work along side Rueben to convince people to vote for a union.
Inevitably, her endless hours in Rueben's office/hotel room impacts her family life. Neglecting her new husband Sonny (Beau Bridges) and their children, her cause puts pressure on their relationship especially as she begins to experience feelings for Rueben. And although Norma Rae's efforts to unionize turn many of her friends and coworkers against her, she begins to see herself as someone with a voice.
Whether or not you are a supporter of unions, this film, based on the true life of Crystal Lee Sutton, is an inspiring story of standing up against the odds. Unfortunately the film has frequent crude sexual dialogue and implied depictions of sexual activity that may be disappointing for family viewers. The script also contains frequent mild and moderate profanities and some scenes of drinking that lead to inebriation.
While the crux of the plot is the formation of a union, it is the people that move the story along. None of them are perfect. Yet the characters are much more than the poor, uneducated factory workers they appear to be. Their lives are shaped by a lack of opportunity and vision that keeps them mired in a barely sustainable lifestyle. Only as Norma Rae catches a glimpse of what could be does she become a type of Moses that leads her people to freedom.Directed by Martin Ritt. Starring Sally Field, Beau Bridges, Ron Leibman. Running time: 114 minutes. Theatrical release March 2, 1979. Updated September 3, 2015
Get details on profanity, sex and violence in Norma Rae here.
Norma Rae Parents Guide
How did Norma Rae's view of the world and her own abilities change when she began to stand up for her rights? What tactics did the mill executives take to discourage people from forming a union? What strategies do others use to keep people in a subordinate role? Who was Norma Rae a hero to?
How did Norma Rae's vision of the world differ from Rueben's? How did his love of books broaden his view? How did Norma Rae's lack of education impact her chances for success? Is a university degree the only way to broaden your education?
How did Norma Rae's willingness to stand up for the rights of workers affect the other employees in the factory? How can one person make positive changes for many people? Is there a time when you stood up for something important?

Great for oily skin
By Nikki
from Toronto
I use the product in the morning after cleanser and toner. I love the smell and the consistence. The bottle is really cool because you push down and the product is dispensed and it gives you the right amount for your whole face. I think this moisturizer would be even better in the summer time when I'm ten times oilier, but i can't say yet since i haven't tried it out.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

|The New Horizons spacecraft performed a close flyby of Pluto in July 2015 and sent back a wealth of data, including images and spectra of its surface, atmosphere, and five moons. Among the questions to be answered by these observations are: What is the nature of the ongoing geologic reprocessing of its surface? Is there seasonal frost transport on the surface? What is the composition of Pluto? How hazy is its atmosphere? Are there prebiotic molecules on its surface? Does it have any liquid water in its interior? Opportunities exist for a student to be involved in analysis of the imaging data from the spacecraft. With this first new look at Pluto, unforeseen discoveries will certainly be made.
|One specific project is to assemble multispectral images of Pluto to map the albedo and presence of volatiles on the surface of the dwarf ice planet. Geologic projects such as a search for dunes or plumes is also possible. Another project is to research and collect data from previous missions for objects expected to be similar to Pluto. Finally, telescopic observations of Pluto and similar bodies from JPLs Table Mountain Observatory (TMO) can also be acquired to compare with spacecraft images.
