Awesome. Thanks for posting this.
The one thing the USA is still the best at...Putting some foot to ass for the cause....
Makes you want to stand up and salute!
I love that song.
Cool video. A bunch of the pilots from Vance AFB frequent a BBQ place in a small town near the base. I was there talking to the owner when about twenty of them showed up. I asked the owner if he was having some kind of special night for high school kids and he laughed telling me that these were pilots who had just graduated from flight school at Vance.
I had never realized how tiny pilots are. Nothing like the large he man image you seem in the movies. Just struck me as funny but one of them told me that being small is a plus for a pilot.

I salute all those who served, past and present, my country and all my fellow americans. Thank You for sharring. Very Cool!

Many of you may still remember the hugely successful viral marketing campaign led by VANCL, China's largest branded apparel e-commerce website. (Refer to Vancl; Expertly Planning a China Viral Buzz Campaign and How to Make a Marketing Campaign Go Viral in China to learn about the viral marketing campaign). Just today, VANCL started an e-commerce 2.0, or, as I call it, social e-commerce, campaign that has the potential of prompting a revolution in the industry.
The campaign is called "VANCL Star, 10% = 1 billion". To put it in a simple way, the campaign is to share profits with VANCL fans.
Star.vancl.com is a photo blog + brand advocate community site for VANCL fans. Fans of the brand can register to open a "store", which is more like a photo blog, and then they can showcase their VANCL purchases and upload photos of how they mix and match. Directly below each picture, there are links of what is being shown in the picture to VANCL site where viewers can click and buy. Members of the VANCL Star community can also comment on each others' photos and "fan" members that they think have a good taste of fashion. Those members with the largest number of fans become VANCL stars and will have the opportunity to appear in VANCL advertising. The best part? VANCL stars will also be given coupons to buy free. The screen shot below is what a VANCL star page looks like
The concept of VANCL Star itself provides the brand with a vibrant and loyal consumer base. But it is not really innovative in terms of a grass-root marketing campaign. The new campaign of "VANCL Star, 10% = 1 billion", however, is one big step further. Now with the campaign, if you are a VANCL star and someone click and buy through the link under your showcase picture, you are able to earn a commission of 10% of the profit. There is no fee, no charge or whatever cost on the part of the member. Inventory, warehousing, delivery and customer service are all handled by VANCL, too.
All you have to do is to set up your VANCL Star page, work on your fashion, buy VANCL and take a picture of you in it, upload the picture, link back to VANCL, attract as many fans as possible, pray that they click and buy, and then earn money. In fact, VANCL provides the function for members to check how much they've earned in real time.
VANCL claims that by doing so, the company will share a potential of 1 billion or more of its profits with VANCL stars. How this campaign will play out is yet to know. But it is surely an exciting try for new e-commerce business models. It turns "fashion for the masses" into "e-commerce for the masses".
The campaign officially starts from 12 am, March, 18th, 2011.
Background: Vancl.com, which took off in 2007, sells clothes, accessories and home furnishings on its website. Its 2010 sales reached CNY 2 billion, a year-on-year increase of 300%. See also how the CEO of VANCL told his wish to acquire LV and Converse.
Appreciate it for this post, I am a big fan of this website would like to continue updated.
A motivating discussion is definitely worth comment.
I do think that you need to write more about this subject matter, it
might not be a taboo matter but generally people don't speak about these subjects.
To the next! Cheers!!

How Are We Doing?
Some Current Statistics
Arrests and Convictions: First Quarter, 2001 – 2003
- Arrests from Frauds Bureau investigations in the first quarter of 2003 totaled 244, versus 281 for the same period in 2002. The Bureau posted 115 arrests during the first three months of 2001.
- Among those arrested during the January–March 2003 period were six Rockland County landscapers charged with operating businesses without securing workers compensation and other insurance coverages in an effort to bypass New York State Law requiring all business owners to provide insurance to protect workers injured on the job. The Frauds Bureau and the Workers Compensation Board conducted a sting operation that included video surveillance showing the landscapers hiring and using about 20 immigrant day laborers.
- In addition, an investigation by the Frauds Bureau, the State Police and the Erie County DAs Office led to the arrest of an insurance agent accused of taking more than $31,000 from four elderly clients, all of whom were in their 70s. Acting as their financial advisor, this suspect was supposed to reinvest the money but instead he deposited it into his personal account.
- Not to be discounted are the day-to-day investigations that brought about arrests of many individuals accused of workers compensation fraud, staged accidents, medical over-billing and various other charges.
- The number of criminal convictions obtained by prosecutors in Frauds Bureau cases reached 104 during the first three months of 2003, compared with 105 and 37, respectively, for the same period in the two prior years.
- The Frauds Bureau received just over 7,200 reports of suspected insurance fraud in the first quarter of 2003, up from 6,326 for the same period in 2002 and 5,188 in 2001. Currently about 55% of all fraud reports are received electronically. Progress continues on the development of a Web-based reporting system to complement the AT&T Global Network system currently in use.

Maybe I am obsessed with bath sheets, but Organic Style's classic twill towels are definitely worth obsessing over - I am wrapped with them because they have the luxe look and absorbency of Frete without having to fret about how they are manufactured. Their organic cotton is grown in India by family farmers organized in cooperatives, so they are good for the earth and the workers connected to them. Colors are limited but their white isn't that wheaty white so often (historically speaking) associated with organic cotton - the only towel to grace my master bath. They are brilliant despite the fact that no chlorine is used. The blue is a chic cruise navy, perfect for a nautical theme - I have them in my son's bathroom and am delighted that no fading has occurred even after numerous washes. The other two tones are wonderfully neutral. And the plushest part is that they are surprising affordable.

Well, hey there!
I've been on MFF since 2006. I know, that's a long time. I used to be pretty involved and sadly, life took over and I forgot about MFF. Recently, I've come back from my five year hiatus and I'm in the process of finishing "Man in the Mask" and started a new chapter story called "What to Expect When You're Expecting: A Wizard's Guide." So, stay tuned for updates. xo MJ
Man in the Mask Updates:
Chapter Four: Posted! 1/6/16
Chapter Five: Writing
What to Expect When You're Expecting: A Wizard's Guide
Chapter One: Posted 1/15/16
Chapter Two: Writing
How many chapters are left in MitM?
I think it's safe to say that I have at least three more chapters to write. We'll see how it goes though. Maybe there will be less. Maybe there will be more.
How many chapters will WtEWYWG be?
I'm thinking it'll be around five or six chapters. I'm not sure yet.
When will the next update be?
Hopefully, it'll be sooner than later. I'm a crazy busy college student so sometimes homework and work trump MFF.

text: by Kent Harrington Feb 1, 2013 Comments (2) AIChE Topics: Energy Share This Post: In the complex world of enhanced oil recovery (EOR), sometimes low-tech trumps high. Case in point, Royal Dutch Shell recently became the second oil major to invest in solar energy to coax heavy crude from older wells. Along with with two other investors, they've pumping $26 million into busy California startup GlassPoint Solar, because its low cost technology works so well in the dusty, dirty and often remote terrain of oil exploration (read press release). Inexpensive sheets of aluminum By 2011, when the company was only in its third year, GlassPoint had already installed its first system in an aging, oilfield in Coalinga, California for Berry Petroleum. It was an inexpensive 300 KW system (video above) with mirrored troughs enclosed inside a glass greenhouse. Shielded from wind and dust, the shiny mirrors could be fabricated from thin, inexpensive sheets of aluminum, which the company makes in China. Almost all other materials - the greenhouses, steam pumps, and pipes - were bought right off the shelf in what must have been a classic Home Depot shopping spree. GlassPoint dropped the new solar plant seamlessly into the oilfield's existing steam injection system. Then, as the mirrors concentrated sunlight on water-filled pipes suspended from the glass roof, the water was turned into steam and injected deep underground, heating and loosening up heavy, gunky crude, and transforming it into lighter oil pumped to the surface. Unprotected heliostats At the same time, competitors Chevron and Bright Source built a rival 27MW project just miles away (watch video), which used 3,822 expensive and unprotected heliostats, consisting of two 10' x 7' mirrors mounted on a steel pole. Sychronized by automated hardware, each heliostat tracks the sun's arc on two axes, intensely focusing the rays on a nearby receiver at the top of a 327-ft tower. Jerry Lomax, Chevron's vice-president of emerging energy, told Oil and Gas Journal that problems at Coalinga included dust, wind, and hail. Any time the wind picked up to more than 25 mph, the large, heavy mirrors had to be put in the rest position, parallel to the ground. Whenever dust coated the mirrors, they had to be turned away from the sun, perpendicular to the ground, so a driver in a truck could drive past each mirror with a big roller brush. And that wasn't just any truck. To cut water use, Chevron had to buy a specially designed Israeli-made machine that uses less than 1 liter of water to clean each heliostat's set of mirrors. Meanwhile, Glasspoint's technology further reduced costs by having automated washing equipment that travels on the outside of the greenhouse. GlassPoint's system also uses low-quality process water from the oil field, saving even more money. Bright Source never expected to turn a profit on its work for Chevron (some say the company saw it more as a demonstration for utility solar projects) and set aside $40 million to cover losses. Glasspoint says it can build its projects at a profit and has already found another EOR client. Twenty-seven times larger In October, working with Shell, Total and the Government of Oman, GlassPoint finished building the Middle East's first EOR solar steam generator in a remote desert location similar to so many oilfields - windy and dusty - where its low-cost technology thrives. Twenty-seven times larger than the system installed in California, it feeds 11 tons/hour of steam directly into the field's network. Meanwhile, Chevron is still considering using solar energy to produce the steam needed to pump heavy crude from an oilfield straddling Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, and may start a pilot solar plant at the end of 2013. But the company is still assessing the use of solar energy as it seeks to free up much-needed natural gas, which Kuwait buys in liquid form at high international prices. GlassPoint is almost finished commissioning the 7-megawatt solar array in Oman. Glass Point CEO Rod MacGregor said 80% of the steam currently produced using gas could be replaced by solar-generated steam and will allow Oman to reassign the gas for other uses. Access to new oil fields Mark Carne, the regional executive vice president at Royal Dutch Shell, who has followed Oman's story since he worked there in the early 1990s, talked about Oman's EOR efforts: "It's almost a microcosm of what will happen in the Middle East and North Africa," he told The National, which covers the oil industry in the Middle East. Shell's involvement should help the startup take its technology worldwide. "You bring in much more than money," said MacGregor. "In this case, it could be access to other oil fields." To Reuters, he called the region "a perfect storm for us... you have heavy oil, you have a shortage of gas and you have abundant sunshine." And he knows the true value of his technology,"...One of the things about solar is it frees up gas. If Oman were to do 30 percent of its EOR with solar [instead of gas], it would become a net gas exporter again." Is this a good use for concentrated solar power? Photos: various, GlassPoint Log in to post comments Comments Marius Fermi (not verified) Feb 25, 2013 Seems as if the race to get solar 'sexy' is fully on now.

The first picture is how to get to the SZL / "Satellite steering column" module from within INPA.
The second picture is just a bunch of crap you'd expect to see when you look under identification for this module.
The third picture has the actual error that I got, and some other stuff.
"ECU: SZL" ...SZL is the actual module name
There is a line specifying both the error number and description, "94E7 / Steering angle sensor: Relative wiper angle faulty".
"Error counter: 1" just says that the issue happened once in this instance.
"Error present now and already stored" just means that it still thinks the error is there (I didn't turn off the car before pulling this stuff). Once the car was shut off and turned back on, the module rechecked the sensor and determined that all was okay again (after this it said that the error was no longer present, but was already stored).

Anti-abortion groups from 20 different countries have launched a petition to ask the European Parliament to recognize that life begins at conception.
The "One of Us" initiative is the first of its kind in Europe and represents a larger effort to forge a cohesive continental anti-abortion movement.
According to the petition's website, "One of Us" has "greater political potential than any other initiative that has been undertaken so far to protect the dignity of the person and life from conception at a European scale."
"At the foundation of this challenge is the idea that abortion is not inevitable," wrote Avvenire, the newspaper of the Italian Catholic Bishops' Conference, presenting the initiative Jan. 7.
The petition aims to collect 1 million signatures in at least seven of the 27 countries of the European Union by November, forcing the Strasbourg, France-based European Parliament to schedule a debate on the issue.
Still, anti-abortion groups recognize that the European Union doesn't have the power to address abortion issues, which are regulated by each member state. In most European countries, with the exception of Ireland and Malta, abortion within the first trimester is generally legal.
The "One of Us" petition, even if successful and passed into law by the European Parliament, would not lead to the outright ban of abortion across Europe. It would, however, block funding from the European Union for activities that entail the destruction of embryos, such as stem cell research.
Nevertheless, organizers -- led largely by independent Catholic groups -- say that they hope the initiative will lead to "political change" on abortion, because of the "need to respect the wish of so many European citizens."
Moreover, if the petition were to be turned into law, "jurisdiction at the European Court of Human Rights, where many bioethical cases are pending, could be positively influenced."
Last year, the Strasbourg-based court ruled against a patent application involving a human embryo, which activists consider a landmark case.
The ruling, in declaring a patent application invalid, implicitly recognized that an embryo is a form of "human life." If the "One of Us" petition were to be approved, anti-abortion activists would have more recourse to the court.
According to the petition's organizers, "if a consensus will be achieved among 1 million citizens or more, a concrete ethical standard could be established across Europe" for the protection of human life, "no matter how young."

Navigating the Alabama Virtual Library Student Research Center Database
This podcast is designed to help famaliarize users with the Student Research Center Database. This podcast mainly focuses on perfoming a basic search and editing user preferences.
Discovering the Library!
In this podcast, I am trying to get the students excited about coming into the Library. I am trying to promote library usage by the students. I want the students to see the library as a place they can come, visit, and learn about new and exciting things. I want the students to see that the library can be a fun place, not just a dull and uneventful room. I want the students to visualize a happy, relaxing, informative room that they can't wait to come and visit.
Perfect Inventions=Perfect World
My students have been studying ancient civilizations and their influence on history. During our study we took a close look at the achievements of the Chinese, the Greek, and the Romans. We realized that these three civilizations provided people with amazing inventions and languages. We used this knowledge to write our own version of the book Perfect Inventions Perfect World (2000) by Holly Springs Elementary. The students "invented" items to improve our world and named them with words of either Greek or Latin origin.

Alabama Records Details and Resources
Where to find Alabama census records, immigration records, land records, maps, vital records and more.
The state health department
maintains birth and death records from 1908, marriage records from August 1936, and divorce records from 1950. Some county probate courts hold pre-1908 birth and death records. Before 1865, the state legislature had jurisdiction over most divorces.
A significant number of Alabama counties have lost records in courthouse disasters -- few of which occurred during the Civil War. Since fires or storms rarely destroy everything, check for surviving records. Consult records in parent and neighboring counties, as well as colonial, local, state, and federal jurisdictions. Also use libraries, local historical societies, and the state archives.
Alabama is a federal land state. Its federal land patents are searchable at the Bureau of Land Management website
. Subsequent land transactions between individuals were recorded at county courthouses.
Alabama-specific resources include territorial censuses; state censuses (1820, 1855, 1866); censuses of Confederate veterans (1907, 1921) and widows (1927); territorial militia and civil service appointments; state militia records; Confederate pensions; 1862 salt allotment lists; 1867 voter registrations; Mobile Municipal Archives; state legislative acts involving individuals and families; territorial and state tax records; Territorial Papers of the United States and Territorial Papers of the United States Senate; pre-1817 territorial records at the Mississippi State Archives; and records of depositors of the two Alabama branches of the Freedman's Savings and Trust Company (FHL microfilm 928571-72).

Movies about Narcissism and Narcissistic Personality Disorder
|Movies Starring Narcissists
© by Gail Meyers
Dealing with a narcissist is more than most adults can handle, let alone dealing with one growing up! I know the feeling. After the ordeal that was the first 40 years of my life, I began learning everything I could about narcissistic personality disorder.
I learned about the tactics, such as forgive and forget, gaslighting, playing the victim, triangulation, the silent treatment and more. I developed an insatiable appetite to learn about the disorder and dysfunction. Then one day I realized narcissists are in movies, too.
Some of these movies were very helpful during the time when the denial was shattering and reality began staring me in the face. I hope you will find some of them helpful, too. There is just something about seeing the behavior displayed in a character we are not deeply emotionally invested it. It becomes clear, easier to see.
Then there is the issue of validation. Narcissists perfect the art of gaslighting. Gaslighting invalidates your feelings, emotions and experiences. It can leave you feeling crazy, like you put your head in a washing machine. Some of these movies also provide some much need validation to someone who may have been gaslighted for years or even a lifetime.
If you are not sure what gaslighting is, keep reading or for a more in depth discussion, see this article on gaslighting.
If you have dealt with or are dealing with a narcissist or narcissistic personality disordered person, it is likely an experience you will not soon forget. Even more so, if you are an adult son or daughter raised in the chaos and abuse.
I thought if I felt that way during my recovery, that others might too. These movies can also be helpful for friends or loved ones who are trying to understand, but have not been able to.
So I put together this list of favorite movie picks. If you have a movie that you think is a great choice, please mention it in the comments. There everyone can enjoy it or I can add it to the list.
GaslightThis movie is an absolute must see for anyone dealing with or recovering from a narcissist. Gaslight is an award winning psychological thriller that so clearly demonstrates gaslighting techniques and the devastating results it can have on a person.
More and more people are coming forward and speaking out about narcissistic parents, siblings, spouses, neighbors and bosses. Thus, I deem this one a must see for everyone! This movie is where the term gaslighting originated.
The original version was released in the United Kingdom, prior to a Broadway show of it under the name of Angel Street. Then, this version was released in the United States in 1944, starring the legendary Ingrid Bergman, Charles Boyer and Joseph Cotten. Angela Lansbury, of Murder She Wrote fame, makes her movie debut as the mischievous young maid.
The movie is set in Victorian London with Ingrid Bergman playing Paula, the gaslight victim. Charles Boyer plays her sinister gaslighting husband, Gregory Anton. Many classify him as a psychopath or antisocial personality disordered. Years after the murder of her aunt, Gregory and Paula fall in love and marry.
Shortly thereafter, Gregory convinces Paula to move back into her childhood home, the house where her aunt was murdered. Paula agrees, but as soon as she does the trouble begins. She notices the gas lights dimming, but when she mentions it to her husband he tells her she is imagining things.
Little does Paula know her husband has a secret he will do anything to protect. He is the one who murdered Paula's aunt years before, but did not get away with the jewels he was after. So when the lights are dimming, it is because Gregory is in the attic when he believes the jewels are hidden.
When he uses the attic gas light, it causes all of the other lights to dim, just as Paula remarked. Gregory continues to gaslight Paula, but soon steps over the line into physical gaslighting. He moves her broach, but when she cannot find it he tells her she has been forgetful lately.
Gregory continues to gaslight and isolate Paula as the emotional tole becomes more obvious. Notice in the movie, there was no physical abuse, nor did Gregory ever raise his hand to Paula. Yet, she is on the verge of losing her mind. Will Gregory get away with it? Will he find the jewels? I can not spoil the ending!
The Wizard of OzThe Wizard of Oz is often discussed as the classic tale symbolizing narcissism. The entire movie can be analyzed within the framework of narcissism and narcissistic personality disorder.
Actually, it has been in the book, The Wizard of Oz and Other Narcissists: Coping with the One Way Relationship at Work, Love and Family. However, the reason I have mention it here, is for the reference to the flying monkeys.
Flying monkeys is a term you will often see used when reading and learning about narcissists and narcissistic personality disorder. Sometimes writes have used the term so often or for so long, they forget to define what it means for those who do not know.
The flying monkeys do the Wicked Witch's dirty work in the movie. The Wicked Witch sends the flying monkeys after Dorothy. Among other things, the Wicked Witch wants Dorothy's red slippers. Notice in the clip the Wicked Witch is actually green, and that Dorothy has done nothing wrong. She just has things the Wicked Witch wants. Thus, the people a narcissist manipulates and uses to abuse by proxy are often referred to as the flying monkeys.
The SopranosDavid Chase created this HBO TV series that ran from 1997 to 2007. He was inspired to create a storyline about a mobster seeing a therapist because of problems with his mother. David relied heavily on his relationship with his own allegedly narcissistic personality disordered mother when creating the roles for the series.
This is a great source for sons of narcissistic mothers. Livia Soprano displays endless narcissistic behavior, including sucking the life out of her children. True to narcissistic form, on her son Tony's wedding day she tells her soon-to-be daughter-in-law that Tony will eventually get bored with her.
Later she manipulates a family member into putting out a hit on Tony because he tried to put her in a nursing home. Tony plots his revenge, intending to suffocate his mother, but she suffers a stroke. When she is released from the hospital Tony goes no contact with his narcissistic mother.
Livia displays classic behaviors of a narcissistic personality disordered mother before her character dies during the course of the series.
Mommie DearestThis is another must see for daughters of narcissistic mothers. Mommie Dearest is a movie adult sons and daughters of narcissistic personality disordered mothers often relate well to. It is often spoken of as a chillingly accurate account of what it is like growing up in such an environment.
Mommie Dearest is based on the real life story of Christine Crawford, adopted daughter of the late Joan Crawford. Christine reveals the secret hell of her childhood, inflicted on her by her mother.
It is most widely known for the "no wire hangers" scene. Be warned, the clip is rather intense as Christine's mother flies into a rage because Christine's clothes are on wire hangers instead of nicer hangers.
As an adult, Christine claimed even their adoption was a publicity stunt. Being overly concerned about the way things look, rather than how they feel, is classic narcissist behavior.
Some confirmed the validity of Christine's claims, while other disputed it. Some believe Joan was bipolar, others have alleged she was borderline personality disordered, and still other claim it was OCD.
Regardless of the diagnosis, this movie clearly displays familiar maternal narcissistic traits. In an interesting side note, Christine and her brother were written out of Joan's will after her death in 1977. The will states the reason for being disinherited as "reasons which are well known to them."
White OleanderWhite Oleander stars Michelle Pfieffer, Renee Wellzeger and Robin Wright Penn, with Michelle Pfieffer doing an amazing job of playing the narcissistic mother, Ingrid. In this movie the story is told from the daughter's point of view, which makes it even better for adult children of narcissists. The mother's narcissism shines through brightly.
After several unsuccessful attempts to reconcile, Ingrid discovers her love interest has been seeing a younger woman. Ingrid continues to obsess about this man until she ends up breaking into his house and poisoning him with white oleander in a fit of jealousy.
Ingrid often seems to forget she even has a child as she vacillates between ignoring and engulfing behavior. Astrid is the more mature of the two. Ingrid is then sentenced to life in prison for the murder, leaving young Astrid to be cared for by the state. The story follows her through a series of abusive foster homes while also keeping the focus on her mother's narcissistic behavior toward her.
A Woman Scorned: The Betty Broderick StoryThis movie chronicles a real life high profile murder case that divided public opinion and ended in a hung jury after the first trial. Meredith Baxter received an Emmy for her top notch portrayal of Betty. There are so many videos about it on YouTube, I had a difficult time choosing just one, but here it is. It is a video by American Justice highlighting the facts and circumstances surrounding the case.
Dan and Betty Broderick were married for nearly two decades. Dan had an affair with his much younger assistant prior to divorcing Betty to marry her. The movie highlights Betty's increasingly provocative behavior leading up to the murders of Dan and his new wife. It was alleged that Dan gaslighted Betty and narcissistic personality disorder was alleged against Betty during the trial.
The movie demonstrates the way a narcissistic mother manipulates her children, as well as other features of the behavior. Even after murdering her husband and his new wife, Betty had a field day manipulating the media with the classic narcissist maneuver of playing the victim while vilifying the true victim.
Also demonstrated in the movie is the way a narcissistic mother manipulates her children, using them as pawns. Besides A Woman Scorned, there is a second movie, as well as books written about the case.
Terms of EndearmentTerms of Endearment is a 1983 movie starring narcissistic Shirley McClain and Debra Winger as mother and daughter. Shirley McClain won an Oscar for her performance portraying this narcissistic mother.
The movie opens with the often referred to scene of Shirley McClain being anxious her sleeping infant daughter has suffered crib death. She walks into the room, nearly climbs into the crib, pinches the baby until it cries, then leaves the room while baby is crying stating how much better it is that the baby is crying.
The concern she conveys is focused on her own anxieties rather than her infant daughter. Years later when her daughter shares the news that she is pregnant, her mother flies into a rage as if it is a narcissistic injury for her to become a grandmother. Again, the narcissistic mother views this event in her daughter's life as how it affects her.
SybilThis movie was remade in 2007, but Sally Field is amazing in her performance as Sybil in the 1976 film. Sybil is a shy, unassuming school teacher who suffers a breakdown. This leads her to see a psychiatrist, Wilbur. As the movie progresses, various other personalities of Sybil's introduce themselves to Wilbur.
Wilbur traces the multiple personalities to childhood abuse Sybil suffered at the hands of her mother. Wilbur locates Sybil's father who confirms Hattie, Sybil's mother, was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. However, he denies Sybil was ever abused. Such gaslighting is typical behavior in toxic, dysfunctional families. It displays how Sybil's abuse, perceptions and memories are invalidated.
Eventually, Wilbur drives Sybil back to her childhood home where horrific abuse took place. Then the movie beautifully demonstrates Sybil and Wilbur working through the healing process as Sybil recovers her repressed memories and gets in touch with her anger.
Moreover, the reintegration of repressed memories and the healing process is so beautifully brought to life in this film that it is included in this list. The movie Sybil shows the part amnesia plays in dissociative identity disorder (multiple personality disorder). She goes on to lead a full and happy life. If you decide to buy or rent this movie, be sure to get the full unedited edition. One version apparently has more than an hour of footage from the original film edited out of it.
Perhaps of interest to some, is this video on Sybil Exposed. Debbie Nathan's examination of the story and claim it was an elaborate fraud.
If you have a movie you think should be included on this list, please let me know in the comments. All of these movies and many more can be found in the bookstore.

Leo Baxendale said he would be raising a glass of "something fizzy" on Friday to celebrate a "wonderful" landmark.
The format of the comic has changed little during the last 50 years.
Any attempts to make Plug and his Bash Street School classmates more politically correct were abandoned when readers protested.
Mr Baxendale, now retired, was just 22 when he penned the first panel of thousands.
"But for it actually to happen, for 50 years to go by - it's triumphant."
Published by DC Thomson, The Bash Street Kids first appeared in The Beano in February 1954 , joining another Baxendale creation, Minnie the Minx.
Originally titled When the Bell Rings, the strip was renamed two years later
as its stars' popularity grew.
Initially envisaged as "a herd of stampeding bison", the gang expanded over
the years from a terrible trio to the naughty nine that generations of schoolchildren - and adults - came to love.
Mr Baxendale left the comic in 1962 just as Plug, Danny, 'Erbert, Fatty,
Smiffy, Wilfrid, Spotty, Sidney and Toots scooped their first colour spread.
'Very rewarding'
But he said he still received letters and e-mails daily from people reminiscing about old strips.
He said: "I can't think of anything I'd rather have done in my life than create Bash
Street and Minnie and all of that.
"It was tremendously rewarding. I found it exhilarating when I was on a roll
- when I went to bed I could hardly wait to get up in the morning because it was
so exciting.
"And it's wonderful to get so many letters from people who remember stuff
from over the decades - not just from Britain but abroad as well."
He added: "It meant so much to people. It's very rewarding for me. I put so
much life into my drawing, it's a wonderful thing to get so much back."
But, even after 50 years, he insists he has no favourites.
"People always ask, but I never have. In a way, they were like my offspring."

12. 03. 2008 - Czech Airlines Preparing a Number of Ecological Projects this Year
Prague, 12 March 2008
Czech Airlines is preparing a number of projects focused on the environment. Joining the Czech Airlines fleet this year are four new modern aircraft that are more environmentally friendly, due to being quieter and having low consumption. Presently, the Airline is also putting into operation its own waste separating line, and the Czech Airlines Technical Department will soon have a new waste water treatment station. Furthermore, an emissions calculator was launched on the Czech Airlines website, which calculates the average amount of emissions generated by a given flight.
Czech Airlines has long striven to reduce both the direct and indirect environmental impact of its activities. Hence, the Airline takes care to adhere not only to all regulations, but also to the standards prescribed by the international environmental protection standard ISO 14001. "We realize that flying, just like other means of transport, involves adverse environmental impacts. We strive to eliminate those adverse impacts as far as possible," said the Director of Quality at Czech Airlines, Jan Čejka.
New, Quieter Aircraft
This year, Czech Airlines will include four new Airbus A319s in its fleet, the first of which was accepted by the Airline in February. These are the last four planes from the supply of 12 Airbus A320/319s procured over the course of the last three years. Furthermore, the Airline ordered another eight aircraft of this type, to be delivered in 2011 – 2012. The new modern aircraft are not only friendlier to the air, but are also among the quietest in their category. The other aircraft operated by Czech Airlines also comply with the strictest noise criteria set by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO).
Waste Water Treatment Station
In the second half of the year, a new waste water treatment station will be put into operation, which will treat all our waste water before it goes into the central Prague Airport waste water treatment station. With the new treatment station, Czech Airlines will be able to expand its range of maintenance processes, which to this point has had to be limited. Due to the significant impact of those activities on waste water quality, Czech Airlines has had to collect soiled water in special containers and have it environmentally disposed of by specialised companies.
Emission Calculator
Passengers, on their own, can now ascertain the volume of emissions released into the air. An emission calculator has been launched on the Czech Airlines website. One can select a particular flight and easily and quickly calculate the volume of emissions that it would release into the air. The result can be compared with other modes of transport. In the future, Czech Airlines will also organise an air quality improvement project, in which passengers will be able to get involved. They will have the option to pay a voluntary fee based on the specific emissions volume, and such fees will then be used to finance the project.
The Czech Airlines emission calculator can be found at:
Other Czech Airlines Environmental Projects
In 2004, Czech Airlines decided to introduce an environmental management system, in line with the international standards ISO 14001. The Airline had to identify the significant environmental impact of its activities and set up a system to minimise them. The outcome of the four-year process of implementing the norms is a functional environmental system that will be tested through an independent certification audit in the second half of this year.
Another innovation of 2008 is the airline's own waste separation line, which has been in operation since March. With it, the amount of sorted waste from on board our aircraft, as well as from other operating activities, will increase significantly.

Crestwood panel recommends pay hike for city employees
Committee approves motion by Duchild on pay increase
Kari Williams
Staff Reporter
write the author
October 31, 2012 -
Crestwood employees could receive a 1-percent merit-based raise if the Board of Aldermen approves the Ways and Means Committee's recommendation for the 2013 budget.
Ward 3 Alderman Paul Duchild, a member of the committee, made the recommendation, which was unanimously approved, during a series of Ways and Means Committee meetings last month.
A 1-percent merit-based pay raise would cost roughly $54,000, according to Finance Officer Greg Kremer, with $50,000 from the general fund and $4,000 from the park and stormwater fund.
Ward 1 Alderman Darryl Wallach, a Ways and Means committee member, suggested reducing expenditures in the capital improvement budget to balance the overall budget, if necessary, while allowing a 1-percent raise.
If there is a negative balance after calculating the expense of raises, funds could be pulled out of the mill-and-overlay line item to balance the budget.
Duchild told the Call the mill and overlay line item is "computed with a large buffer ... which is rarely, if ever, exceeded."
The Ward 3 alderman told the Call Monday that transferring funds from the mill-and-overlay line item will not be necessary. The Ways and Means Committee's 2013 draft budget, including a 1-percent merit-based pay increase, shows a citywide surplus of $3,676, according to Duchild.
Duchild originally proposed a 2-percent merit-based raise, but told the committee because of how the budget appears, it gives the impression the city will not have a balanced budget.
A summary of all city funds, including the effect of a 2-percent raise, shows the city would have a $60,702 deficit.
"It includes the 2-percent raise like we discussed last time, which puts us technically at the $60,700 (over) budget," Duchild told the committee Oct. 25. "... Expenditures exceed our revenues under the plan with the 2-percent raise. Without the 2-percent raise, we're at about $47,000 on the good side."
Duchild's original 2-percent merit-based proposal would have been achieved using excess reserve funds that were set aside to purchase a fire truck.
The 2013 budget allocates $500,000 toward the fire truck purchase. The city received $342,000 in federal grant money and also has $210,000 in reserve, according to Fire Chief and acting City Administrator Karl Kestler.
Duchild suggested using the difference between the allocated amount and the grant, $158,000, and whatever funds would be left over from the $210,000 in reserves as a transfer from the cash reserves to supply the funds for an average 2-percent raise and to re-start a resident-based program, such as the street lighting program.
The way the budget reads caused concern for the Ward 3 alderman because the way funds are reserved for future purchase of a fire truck and police car, the city does not "take it off the bottom line of the budget," but indicates those funds with a footnote. Duchild suggested the city "come up with a better way of actually reserving funds," possibly by creating a separate account.
"I don't think it's a true and accurate picture all the time" Duchild said.
If the funds reserved in the capital improvement fund, for example, could be placed in a separate account, the city "could apply those funds and pseudo revenue to the 2013 budget," which Duchild believes would cause a positive balance and allow the city to move forward with a 2-percent merit-based raise.
Kremer said if those funds are set aside in a different account, it will not change the final budget numbers.
"At the end of the day, when you roll it all the way across to the total column, you're still going to be at the same point you were where you're currently at, you'll just have a transfer out and a transfer in," Kremer said. "There is no way to create that expenditure unless the city has actually expend(ed) those funds."
Kremer said creating an additional account would not create "an actual expenditure," rather just move funds from one account to another.
No action was taken regarding creating a separate account.
Wallach said Oct. 18 he agrees employees need raises, but noted the funds that would be allocated for raises are specified for capital improvement.
"I think that's going down a wrong road. That $158,000 is really capital improvement, not for the general fund for the employees," Wallach said.
Mayor Jeff Schlink, also a member of the Ways and Means Committee, said he believes the proposal is a "great idea." Schlink also told the committee he understands where Wallach is coming from and that residents have made similar points regarding different funds.
"In a perfect world, I think it would work that way, but unfortunately we don't live in a perfect world," Schlink said, "and I think that when money is shifted from one fund to another, I think that sometimes it's gamey and sometimes it's for the wrong reasons, but for the reasons that we're talking about here, I would be in support of a plan like that."
Duchild said he understands the issue about moving money around, but believes the revenue is available for the pay raises.
Wallach also voiced concern about how the 2014 budget and future budgets would be affected by the raises.
The committee also discussed overtime pay, employee cell phone reimbursement, setting aside funds for the future purchase of a police car and health and wellness in relation to gym memberships for city employees, among other items.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This story was updated from the version in the Call's print edition to reflect additional information from Ward 3 Alderman Paul Duchild that transferring funds from the mill-and-overly budget is not necessary to balance the 2013 draft budget.

The 28-year-old world number one had said that she would quit at the end of last year, but after a successful season she has had a change of heart.
"Finally I felt I put myself in a position to try and win Grand Slams again," said Davenport.
"It would be tough to walk away when I feel like I can contend so there's no point in hanging it up quite yet."
Davenport has won three Grand Slams, the 2000 Australian Open, Wimbledon in 1999 and the 1998 US Open.
Her career has been hit by a series of injuries but last year she started hitting top form and won seven titles.
She was due to take part in this week's Hopman Cup in Perth but decided she wanted to rest her knee.
"I just really wanted to make sure my right knee was going to be able to really withstand all the rigours of the whole year coming up," she said.

Colombia Scientologists Promote Drug Awareness
On United Nations International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, volunteers from the Church of Scientology of Bogotá held a workshop and street events to reach youth with the truth about drugs.
In observance of United Nations International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, on June 26 volunteers from the Church of Scientology of Bogotá held a series of events to raise awareness on the consequences of drug use.
The need for effective drug prevention in Colombia is clear: The UN World Drug Report states, "The world's largest cocaine seizures—unadjusted for purity—continue to be reported from Colombia [8] (200 tons)."
To launch the activities of the day, volunteers organized and conducted a three-day workshop at a San Vicente high school to train educators on the Truth About Drugs Education Package. The interactive lessons are based on 25 years of experience reaching youth with drug education and prevention. Students read booklets and watch public service announcements on the most commonly abused substances. They also watch an award-winning feature-length documentary, The Truth About Drugs—Real People, Real Stories, a compelling series of firsthand accounts of former addicts.
The principal and 84 educators who attended were so impressed by the program they are now eager to use the curriculum with their students.
Volunteers then took to the streets, distributing thousands of copies of The Truth About Drugs, a booklet whose message completely aligns with the theme of this year's United Nations International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking—"Make health your 'new high' not drugs."
For more than two and a half decades, Scientologists on five continents have been working in their communities to empower others with the truth about drugs. The Church and its members are dedicated to eradicating drug abuse through education.
The Church of Scientology has published a brochure, Scientology: How We Help—The Truth About Drugs, Creating a Drug-Free World, to meet requests for more information about the drug education and prevention initiative it supports. To learn more or read a copy of the brochure, visit the Scientology website [9].
Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard wrote, "The planet has hit a barrier which prevents any widespread social progress—drugs and other biochemical substances. These can put people into a condition which not only prohibits and destroys physical health but which can prevent any stable advancement in mental or spiritual well-being."
The Church of Scientology supports the Truth About Drugs, one of the world's largest nongovernmental drug education and prevention campaigns. It has been conclusively proven that when young people are provided with the truth about drugs—factual information on what drugs are and what they do—usage rates drop commensurately.

Don't know why this is making the rounds now since Vick said this back in October, but whatever.
Zach Ertz put up a modest stat line in his rookie season -- 36 catches, 469, four touchdowns. But Vick said he expects much greater things from the Stanford product in the future.
"There are three players that I told that they would be great players in this league: I always told Alge Crumpler that he was going to be great, I always told [LeSean] McCoy that he was going to be a great player in this league, and I always told Roddy White," Vick said. "And now I'm saying Zach Ertz. And I think in time, he will be one of the best tight ends in this game."
Fantasy Analysis:
Vick, who is about to become a free agent, probably won't be in Philly to watch his premonition come true firsthand. Ertz's season was actually pretty good compared to the rookie seasons of today's best at his position. Among the top 15 tight ends in receiving yards this season, Ertz's 469 yards ranks second among those players in their rookie seasons. The only person in front of Ertz is Rob Gronkowski from 2010.
Ertz's play-making ability gives him a lot of upside in Chip Kelly's offense. However, let's not get too carried away with his 2014 stock right now. Brent Celek is still around, and Ertz needs to become a better blocker so he can truly turn into an every-down player.

Smackdown: Corbett seeks to rein in Highmark, UPMC feud
The Highmark acquisition of West Penn Allegheny Health System has been completed, but that doesn't mean the state is finished sorting out the health care situation in Western Pennsylvania.
There has long been tension between the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center health care system and Pittsburgh-based insurer Highmark Inc., which has a large presence in the midstate. Highmark's acquisition of WPAHS and its concurrent announcement that it was creating a Western Pennsylvania integrated health care delivery system only increased the tension.
Gov. Tom Corbett has issued a statement, as follows.
"Recent advertising and news reports regarding healthcare coverage and access to providers in western Pennsylvania are causing confusion and great concern among consumers who use Highmark insurance products and UPMC hospitals and providers."
(The confusion centers on whether Highmark patients will be able to see UPMC physicians.)
"Over the past months, my administration has been directly involved in overseeing a transition to the new healthcare landscape developing in western Pennsylvania. Our goal for western Pennsylvania and the entire commonwealth remains continued access to quality and affordable healthcare for consumers in a competitive and healthy marketplace. We will continue to take all steps necessary to ensure consumers are protected.
"As nonprofit entities with an obligation to their community, I expect that Highmark and UPMC will maintain a focus on their higher social mission — to responsibly serve the healthcare needs of thousands of western Pennsylvanians.
"At my direction, the Departments of Health and Insurance have reached out to Highmark and UPMC, requiring them to clarify any consumer confusion surrounding Highmark's CommunityBlue product and services at UPMC.
"As a result, the companies agreed to work together to help consumers better understand Highmark's CommunityBlue and the services they can access at UPMC facilities. While I understand that areas of disagreement between the companies remain, I believe this is an important step in the right direction and should serve as the foundation for the two companies to forge ahead on additional areas of agreement that protect consumers.
"These companies need to set aside personal opinions and agendas and work toward the common good of the shared community in which they are both important fixtures.
"I also have directed the Departments of Health and Insurance to create an interagency task force to monitor the ongoing communications and maintain the state's role in protecting consumers."

For the first time since The Decision, the Cleveland Cavaliers and their fans can let go of the negative thinking and start to look at the positives.
When you have the No. 1 pick in the draft, it is easy to let go of the hatred and start to look at the world through rose-colored glasses.
Arizona red probably comes the closest to rose, but it could also be Duke or Kentucky blue.
MOCK DRAFT: How the first round could unfold
The Cavaliers have the No. 1 (and No. 4) pick. That is a certainty. What they do with it, a little less so.
It seems they are locked in on Duke point guard Kyrie Irving. And he'd be a tempting pick.
However, he played just 11 games in his career due to a toe injury. And while 11 is a good number for a Spinal Tap guitarist, its not comforting for an NBA team ready to sign a multi-million dollar check.
But that is 11 college games more than Kentucky center Enes Kanter played after he was ruled ineligible.
So Derrick Williams of Arizona is out there. And anyone who saw him destroy Duke in the tournament has to be salivating at the prospect of putting him in the lineup. But Williams wouldn't be the first NCAA hero who didn't live up to the hype.
And what most of us know about center Jonas Valanciunas of Lithuania could fit in a peanut shell. Yet, there he is at the top of most mock drafts.
By Thursday evening, a decision will have to be made and a card put in the hand of commissioner David Stern. Who should that be?
While we listen to the ticking clock, here is some good work by some good people that we might have missed while sleeping or wondering whether Roger Goodell's definition of urgent is the same as ours.
