June Bride (1948)
Carey Jackson (Robert Montgomery), foreign correspondent for a huge magazine conglomo, has found himself in his employer Carlton Towne's leather-lined office ("Must be like living in a wallet"), about to be fired. The company is closing their Vienna office because of post-war censorship, but there's no work for him back home, either. At the last minute, Towne (Jerome Cowan) offers Carey a job with their women's magazine Home Life. But this is June Bride, a 1948 Warner Bros. romantic comedy, so there's a little snag with this plan: Home Life's editor Linda Gilman (Bette Davis) is not only exceedingly difficult to work with, but Carey's former flame. She's so tough, in fact, that Carey maneuvers himself into a $200.00 per month raise, just for doing Towne the favor of telling Linda that Cary is her new columnist, so Towne doesn't have to do it himself. And just as predicted, Linda loathes the idea of working with Carey, while Carey is both smooth and hostile to her, in hopes of keeping his job. "I'm gay, I'm lovable, and I have nice teeth," Carey says. "What more do you want?" – Linda's having none of it. Carey of course makes moves on Linda immediately, slipping into her apartment after a dinner out and turning off all the lights, because dumping her without saying a word three years prior is a total turn-on, you know. She knocks him down; he's lucky he landed on his padded butt on her padded couch. … Continue reading

Hugh Hefner's swinging, late 1960's TV show, Playboy After Dark had a wide variety of musicians, comedians and interesting people appear as guests. This clip recorded in late 1968, is one of the earliest television performances and one of the last to show the original Deep Purple performing their breakthrough song Hush.
This line-up is known as Deep Purple Mark I. By the time this segment aired November 14, 1969, original vocalist Rod Evans and bass player Nick Simper, both founding members of the band, had been out of the band since July 1969 and were replaced by Ian Gillan and Roger Glover. The new incarnation of Deep Purple would go on to have worldwide commercial success and set a standard for other hard rock and heavy metal bands to follow. Continue reading

Gateway officials to consider new architect
Gateway officials are confident that a new architect is needed to help complete unfinished capital improvement projects throughout the school district.
The board is expected next month to hire Pittsburgh based HHSDR Architects and Engineers for projects that were budgeted for completion over the summer — before the start of the school year — but remain unfinished, district officials said last week.
School Director Dave Magill in August voiced his frustration with North Huntingdon-based Axis Architecture, which originally was hired by the district to complete designs and paperwork for multiple projects, including roof repair at the high school and additional rest rooms at Cleveland Steward Jr. Elementary.
Superintendent Nina Zetty last week said work by an architect from Axis resulted in zero bids from contractors for the capital improvement projects. Magill said the owner of Axis dealt directly with Gateway on the projects in question.
Reached by phone on Monday, Axis owner Hank Tkacik declined to comment.
Zetty said that based on her experience with HHSDR, the firm "had proven itself to be economically prudent, experienced in decision-making and highly competent in design and project implementation."
An HHSDR architect will take a final "walk through" of district facilities to visualize improvement projects before winter, Zetty said.
The district has about $1.6 million to use on projects this school year, according to the Gateway business office.
"There may be additional projects for 2013-14 based upon upcoming buildings and grounds committee meetings, if there is money left in the capital reserve fund," Zetty said.
In addition to capital improvement projects, general maintenance work is necessary at the high school softball field, school Director Scott Williams said at the Sept. 16 meeting.
"There's a number of items that need addressed," Williams said. "It's something we need to address now, before the spring comes. Because when the spring comes, it'll be too wet to do anything."
The field will be added to the list of maintenance projects, Zetty said.

If you're not so into Ashley's androgynous fashion personality — which, let's face it, most of us are — Ashley dished out a thoroughly modern and sexy day or night look. We just can't get enough of her minimalist style. You probably have half the items in your closet already. Black mini? Done. Oversized blazer? Done. Black gladiators. Done and done. The next part is easy: ditch all jewelry and you're ready to take flight Ashley Olsen style.

You guys must be funded by the expensive liquor manufacturers. Otherwise, why would you always show the recipes with the expensive liquors. Sure, some people can taste the difference, but most of us can't. I guess it is a way to get people to buy the expensive liquor.
We aren't all made of money, you know. Especially with the price of liquor going up so much.

Are you sure that this recipe is correct? One ounce of tequila doesn't sound right in light of the quantities of the other ingredients. This wouldn't even fill half of a small cocktail glass.

Johannesburg - Banyana Banyana captain and central defender Janine van Wyk looks set to return to the starting XI for the friendly match against Ghana at Dobsonville Stadium on Sunday.
Van Wyk has been out for almost three months due to a collateral knee ligament strain, and missed the clash against Zimbabwe last month.
"It's the first time I am training with the team again, and it feels really good to be back," said Van Wyk on Wednesday.
"I have been out for 13 weeks without playing football and doing rehabilitation. There are still a few areas I need to work on and get the injury out of my mind. But I am sure I will be ready in the next couple of days," said Van Wyk.
Van Wyk said she could not wait to get on the field against Ghana, who she believed were much more physical opponents than Zimbabwe.
Banyana are preparing for the upcoming African Women's championship qualifiers match against Comoros at the end of the month, and coach Vera Pauw was impressed with the team's performance.
"Preparations are going well, we have only had three training sessions together," said Pauw.
"We had the first explosive training session yesterday, to gain more power and after that we had game time. I am impressed by what I saw," said Pauw.
"The match against Ghana could not have come at a better time as we look to intensify preparations ahead of the African Women's Championship qualifiers against Comoros," she added.
Defender Letago Madiba remains the only injury scare for the team ahead of the match after sustaining a knee injury during Wednesday's training session.

Resignation Rumors
Well this was inevitable. When something that hasn't happened for almost six centuries happens, there are going to be rumors about why it is happening:
VATICAN CITY – With just days to go before Pope Benedict XVI's resignation, the Vatican is battling rumours that his decision was triggered by an explosive report on intrigue in its hallowed corridors of power.
The secret report compiled by a committee of three cardinals for the pope's eyes only was the result of a broad inquiry into leaks of secret Vatican papers last year — a scandal known as "Vatileaks".
The cardinals questioned dozens of Vatican officials and presented the pope with their final report in December 2012, just before Benedict pardoned his former butler Paolo Gabriele who had been jailed for leaking the papal memos.
The Panorama news weekly and the Repubblica daily said on Thursday that the cardinals' report contained allegations of corruption and of blackmail attempts against gay Vatican clergymen, as well as favouritism based on gay relationships.
The Vatican has declined to comment on these two reports, with spokesman Federico Lombardi saying they were "conjectures, fictions and opinions."
In an interview with El Pais, one of the investigating cardinals, Julian Herranz, said the scandal was "a bubble" that had been "inflated".
"There will be black sheep, I am not saying there are not, like in all families," he said, adding that the investigators had "spoken to people, seen what works and what does not, lights and shadows".
Speaking to Italy's Radio 24, Herranz said the idea that "Vatileaks" might have influenced the pope's decision was one "hypothesis" among many others.
"These are decisions that are taken personally in the deep of one's conscience and they must be profoundly respected," the 82-year-old said.
At his final public mass last week, Benedict himself condemned "religious hypocrisy" and urged an end to "individualism and rivalry".
"The face of the Church… is at times disfigured. I am thinking in particular of the sins against the unity of the Church," he said, without elaborating.
Go here to read the rest. Is any of it true? Who knows? Considering the harsh things that many Popes have said about the papal bureaucracy I am not shocked at the idea. However, to be too credulous about such allegations is to confuse cynicism with wisdom. Like anything else, we will have to see what evidence is brought forth, if any, to support the allegations. One lesson however that the Vatican needs to know is that in the modern age secrecy is difficult to maintain and that truth is usually the best disinfectant. The Vatican has issued a non-denial denial which is reported on here. That is insufficient and will merely give conspiracy theorists more fodder for speculations.
24 Responses to Resignation Rumors
I sat through the child protection seminar three years ago and left confused by two things: how can the Archdiocese straight faced say that there is no homosexual connection to the abuse and how can it be that the highest ranking members of our clergy were not utterly enraged by the stories they heard.
I have read snipets of the referenced allegations for several years due to translations of Italian news outlets – outlets consumed with interest in scandal, particularly secular and Vatican political scandal. Allegations of homosexual impropriety at the Vatican are legion.
The elephant in the room is that homosexuality appears to be more prevalent than we want to acknowledge and enough of our clergy are acting on their impulses to bring scandal to the Church on an ongoing basis. Benedict forcefully affirmed the Church's position early in his Papacy. We will likely never know if he would have gone farther or if the push-back from the hierachy was too much for him to have purged their ranks of the actively homosexual priests.
I sat through the child protection seminar three years ago and left confused by two things: how can the Archdiocese straight faced say that there is no homosexual connection to the abuse and how can it be that the highest ranking members of our clergy were not utterly enraged by the stories they heard.
They say it because they are listening to members of the helping professions, in part out of lack of self-confidence and in part because their lawyers tell them to do so. As for the helping professions, denying the pathologies and personal responsibility of the homosexual population is part of their professional ideology. It is a postulate.
As I understood the argument, attraction to children is a distinct class of sexuality, distinguishable from homosexual and heterosexual sex. Fair enough… But, within that class, surely there are sub-classes of those attracted exclusively to young boys, exclusively to young girls, and indiscriminately deviant?
The other problem I had was that the presentation used only the most eggregious abuse as examples, the ones that left me, as a parent, wondering "and the parents let this go on for how long?" The Grand Jury Report in Philadelphia suggests that a large percentage of the coerced sex was from male clergy to post-pubescant boys, 16 to 19 years old or so.
Surely the man who finds young men or women attractive is in a different, albeit deviant too, place than one who is attracted to young children?
It is surprising to me that the Church treats homosexuality within the churchas nearly taboo and that makes me wonder if these recurring stories are not true.
Marie Carre's AA-1025 book about the communists infiltration of the Catholic Church; fodder or fact?
As I understood the argument, attraction to children is a distinct class of sexuality, distinguishable from homosexual and heterosexual sex
There are biologists who specialize in taxonomy; some are 'lumpers' and some are 'splitters'.
There is a specialist in sexual behavior named Bailey (sociologist or psychologist at Northwestern, IIRC) who was raked over the coals by 'activists' about 10 years ago for publishing a monograph which argued that transexualism is a surface manifestation of one of two sorts of deviance: it can express intense homosexuality or an odd sort of sexual fetishism. This thesis got some people's noses out of joint.
A librarian of my acquaintance had this to say: "all schemes of classification are ultimately arbitrary. The point is, 'can you learn them'?". This may not be altogether true, but should the purveyors of psychotherapy and 'counseling' really be accorded such trust that one does not notice that their taxonomies are verrrrry conveeeenient.
The Grand Jury Report in Philadelphia suggests that a large percentage of the coerced sex was from male clergy to post-pubescant boys, 16 to 19 years old or so.
The Grand Jury apparently fancies that the Catholic clergy have a median age of about 32 and are recruited exclusively from the ranks of military officers and athletic coaches.
The OT and NT both acknowledge that bestiality and male homosexuality exist in the human condition. The medical community sees a distinction between same-gender attraction (homosexuality, from homos, Greek, not homo-Latin so it is genderless). And attraction to infants and pre-pubescent males and same for females AND post-pubescent males and females. Media and bishops alike and at times Vatican offiicials bandied about the word "homosexuality" to apply to all without distinction. The US bishops have a Charter that presumes that even one allegation made, proven or confessed decadaes ago demands the canonical death penalty for clergy. The sociological evidence and Court cases are slowly revealing the high incidence of abuse by males, and females, single and married against each gender of all ages. The media-legal mud and revelations from Church and State officials are slowly showing that University professors, medical personnel and teachers as well as all varieties of Protestant and Jewish clergy and also guilty of power-abuse of all age groups from grade school through University and adults in the various medical and other professional care, are a large part of the actual story. Most abuse is incest and abuse within the family. Is it not time then to lay off old and false unproven allegations and past deeds of hierarchy and clergy and deal with the whole culture and Church and make a sharp distinction between very sick men and women and boundary violations by clergy who were coming to emotional maturity after a sheltered all male formation and education- hot-house versus the wind and rain of the outside world.
Besides AA-1025 has anyone read Bella Dodd's interviews and the number of young men of communist persuasion who were sent to the seminaries to subvert the faith? Her book School of Darkness is still available. All this was planned out by the Grand Masonic Lodge in Rome, read the Alta Vendita–which one of our past popes had printed had his own expense so lay people would be warned.
I'm sorry LoneThinker, I am not following you. Could you state the same thing more simply?
"….comforting to be a conspiracy theorists…"
There's nothing comforting about the warfare going on, nor the means by which the enemy will use to win souls. On the two hundredth anniversary of the Masons a young seminarian studying in Rome was witness to the celebrations of professed destroyers of Catholic Church. St. Maximilian Kolbe noticed the hatred of the Masons as they waved their banners of Lucifer crushing the head of St. Michael.
This is a warfare of the possession of souls by Christ through grace or by the prince of this world through sin.
To easily dispute the notion of conspiracy and name it "crank wackery" is akin to saying that spies never existed in WWII. You are correct in the obvious, that Catholic Lite is the choice of many, however to rule out subversion of our Holy Church by any means possible is unbecoming of your great intellect.
Unfortunately your probably correct.
We have met the enemy, and it is us.
Peace Donald.
Donald: "the fact that the Mass is celebrated today throughout this country with all the awe, splendor and majesty of a tupperware party,"
You have said it.
All of which begs the question: Why doesn't the Church acknowledge the homosexual connection to the abuse? The first step in healing a patient should be diagnosis.
Even afterward, Margaret Steinfels said she thought Weakland a 'good bishop.'
I suspect
1. The problems with sexual corruption in the Church are only weakly related to the degree of heterodoxy in a given diocese. One problem with making that assessment is that when you look at a given accused priest, you often find that the bishop in office while he was in formation, the bishop who ordained him, the bishop in charge when the supposed offense took place, and the bishop who processed the complaint against him were four different individuals. That aside, some dioceses have had an alternating series of conservative and liberal bishops. An accused priest in Rochester may have been ordained by Bishop Kearney, supposed to have molested a youth during Bishop Hogan's tenure, and faced an accusation under Bishop Clark.
2. The Holy See lacks the manpower to police the Church in aught but a haphazard and episodic way. The Holy See needs to ensure that there are appropriate procedures incorporated into canon law and to be meticulous in its selection of bishops. There will be occasions where a general visitation of a country's seminaries is in order. However, the leg work has to be done by local ordinaries, or it is not done.
3. And, of course, what the diocesan bishop can do is often prophylactic. One wretched bit of business has been the accusation against sitting bishops that they are 'covering-up' and 'not protecting kids' when the complaints they were receiving were filed 15 years after the fact; a bishop cannot protect a 29 year old man against something which happened when he was 14 (when the bishop in question was an administrator at some suburban parish the next diocese over).
For what's it worth; Goodbye good men, by Michael S. Rose asks the questions "what happened?"
He interviewed over 150 people, priests and laymen in the Catholic Church.
To sum it up, Liberal attack from the inside.
Under attack is status quo for Our Holy Church.
Rose's book was subject to some persuasive criticism at the time of its publication on the part of Fr. Robert Johansen and Brian St. Paul, among others. Rose and Dale Vree were fairly neuralgic about it. (The burden of the complaint was that while the problem described was real, some of the specifics were bum raps and much of the narrative was dated, referring to situations no longer current). I think we error if we see it as enemies burrowing away (although that happens) and avoid thinking about problems in the evolution of institutional culture. Why, during the period running from about 1925 to 1985, were an escalating contingent of men with latent (and subsequently uncontrolled) sexual dysfunctions ordained; why did the bulk of the ongoing problem abruptly evaporate around about 1990; what lies behind the irresponsible behavior of a selection of bishops (keeping in mind that addressing the problem well was impossible even for the most capable and conscientious bishops), among them McCormack, Sheehan, Matthiessen, Grahmann, Tshoeppe, Law, &c. ? I am not sure a satisfying and credible answer has been tendered; certainly some of the self-appointed gurus (Andrew Greeley, Thomas Doyle, Richard Sipe, Leon Podles) were not offering any.
Art Deco-
Good questions.
Is it possible that many just looked the other way?
Is it from years of orchestrated planning…yes Donald add the foreboding music here…, however it does make one wonder if the checks and balances we're washed over on purpose, or deliberate.
We are left with many questions.
…not or. ( and deliberate! )
Please excuse my haste.

With a big Minnesota River Conference win over Mayer Lutheran, the Central girls' basketball team solidified its grip on second place in the MRC last week.
The Raiders (8-1 in league play) edged out the third-place Crusaders (6-3) by a 56-42 score on Thursday, Jan. 24 to create some daylight between the top two teams in the conference and the rest of the pack, and still have a shot to catch Jordan, which is currently undefeated in the MRC at 9-0.
Central also split a pair of home non-conference games last week, falling 72-64 to Holy Family on Monday, Jan. 21 and defeating Lester Prairie-Holy Trinity 56-48 on Saturday, Jan. 26.
The Raiders carried a 15-4 overall record into this week's action, which includes a showdown at Jordan (ranked No. 10 in Class 2A) this Friday, Feb. 1. The Jaguars handed the Raiders their only conference loss of the season earlier this year, a 58-48 loss.
Central 64, Holy Family 72
The week started off with a rare loss for the Raiders, who couldn't catch up with Holy Family after falling behind early. Down by six points at halftime (35-29), the Raiders had a difficult time shutting down the Fire's offense in order to rally in the second half.
"We never seemed to get the stops we needed to make a comeback," said Raiders head coach Gary Lembcke. "We got lots of open shots during the game. It did seem that every time we got within reach to make a comeback Holy Family would make a run and score two to four baskets in a row and always kept that 10 to 14-point lead."
Lexi Erpenbach had 23 points to lead the Raiders, and Kaylie Brazil added 20 points with four steals, four rebounds and four assists.
Sami Jo Brinkmann scored 10 points with eight rebounds and two blocked shots, and Brooke Willemsen also had eight rebounds to go along with three assists and four points.
Central 56, LHS 52
In a game with big implications for the league standings, the Raiders hosted Mayer Lutheran and managed to mask a cold shooting night with strong defense.
"I was very pleased with the way we played. We had a night where we did not shoot well but I felt we played well on defense," said Lembcke.
After the teams played to a 24-24 tie in the first half, Brazil sparked a second half burst by sinking three three-point shots in a row.
"From that point on we did not let Mayer Lutheran take the lead the rest of the game," said Lembcke.
While the game remained close and the Crusaders did manage to tie the score within the last two minutes, the Raiders didn't panic.
"What pleased me the most about our defense was that we made the stops defensively so they could not take a lead, which we didn't do in the Holy Family game," said Lembcke.
Erpenbach was Central's top scorer again, netting 21 points with four assists. Brazil finished the night with 14 points, two steals and three assists.
Morgan Karnes scored nine points with a team-high nine rebounds, and Brinkmann and Willemsen each grabbed seven rebounds. Brinkmann also blocked three shots.
Central 56, LP-HT 48
While shooting remained a problem, the Raiders played well in almost every other aspect of the game to pick up another win against Lester Prairie-Holy Trinity.
The Raiders connected on just 16 of 71 shot attempts (22 percent) from the field, but Brinkmann and Karnes combined for 18 first half points to help the Raiders keep pace with the Bulldogs.
"Our inside game kept us in the game," said Lembcke.
The Raiders trailed 28-29 at halftime, but finally began clicking in the second half when they surged ahead and took an 18-point lead thanks to some long-range shooting by Erpenbach, who connected on three three-pointers, and aggressive inside play by Willemsen, who gathered in 12 offensive rebounds during the game and finished with 19 rebounds overall.
Strong defensive play also limited Lester Prairie-Holy Trinity to just 19 second-half points.
Erpenbach led the team with 19 points and five assists, and Willemsen scored 13 points along with her team-high in rebounds. Brinkmann finished with 10 points, 12 rebounds and five blocks, and Karnes scored eight points.

Dead Island is a first-person shooter RPG that takes place on a tropical island resort after a devastating zombie plague has turned almost all of the vacationers into a ravenous legion of undead walkers. The game took me about 20 hours to complete. As far as an RPG goes, that's a pretty standard amount of time to finish the story objectives, and I probably could have spent more time exploring. The problem with Dead Island is that the feeling of progression that is so important in RPGs just wasn't as satisfying as it could have been, and although the combat and atmosphere of the game world were great, the story wasn't good enough to deliver the slightest narrative payoff in the end.
Usually, after completing a third of the adventure in an RPG, the player should have already fallen into a progression flow where they feel more and more powerful as they spend more time with the character. This creates a kind of connection with the character that they're building. But Dead Island just sort of fell flat in this area, and that was very disappointing. Some of the problems with the lackluster progression could have been solved with an improved skill tree. After level 15 or so, I didn't even care what I spent my skills on because none of it was exciting and I never really felt empowered after maxing out a skill. I felt like I could just throw points up on the skill page in a scatter shot fashion without it making much of a difference on gameplay. Simply, it seemed to me there was not a lot of real meaningful choices for me to make in this category.
One of the bright points of Dead Island was the intense combat and the gritty, threatening atmosphere. Even though I still believe that it should have had a tad bit more time of ironing out some player control irregularities and some strange level design, overall the thrill of lopping off undead limbs and the variety of combat situations almost held up until the very end. The players have the choice of where in the open world to explore and which groups of enemies to fight or which to steer clear of. The freedom of choice in combat is important because resources are scarce in Dead Island, and the ability of the player to choose where and when to expend their resources gives the feeling of importance to each encounter with the undead. This is where the survival horror aspect of the game is prevalent and the crux of the experience becomes centered on the give and take struggle with the undead and the completion of the mounting list of missions that steer the player towards further exploration and zombie killing. Even if most of the quests only serve to tell stereotypical or flat out asinine stories that you find yourself scoffing at, they can be a conduit to good combat scenarios.
The solid core combat loop cannot fully direct my thoughts away from what was, in my opinion, the worst game ending I have played in quite some time. Most RPGs (Dead Island included) rely heavily on replayability and trying to hook the player into wanting to complete as much side content as possible, but the more I progressed into Dead Island, the more I felt like it was a front-loaded mess. The last third of the game felt uninspired, and I constantly found myself slipping into frustration. By the time I reached the worst of the story, which was suppose to be the climax, I was determined to finish the game and take it out of my PS3. This game fell short of my expectations, and this is sad because it could have been better with a little more time for testing and polish.
I had at least 12 hours of fun with Dead Island, and I consider it a decent B-movie equivalent game that fans of zombie/survival horror may enjoy, but it's definitely not for everyone, especially not for those seeking a worthwhile narrative. I wouldn't say that I regret playing the game, but I find it hard for me to look back fondly at the experience as a whole.

The Now and Then picture last week was of Rutland Place, Newport, with the Royal Gwent Hospital in the background. Some people remembered it as Daniel Street, which no longer exists.
I have many fond memories of the Then picture which is of Daniel Street (which no longer exists) where my grandmother lived on the right hand side of the picture. She was called Daisy Taylor, and lived with her daughter Lilly and Fred Burrows.
In her middle room she has gas lighting at the end of the 50s and wouldn't have electricity.
Also in the street lived the Delahayes, and the end house was the Herd family. Their gardens backed onto Tovey's and we used to climb over the fence and take apples. On the other corner of Daniel Street was a corner shop, and my grandmother would send us to the shop with a shopping list for what used to be called black lead pencils and other items. She was a seamstress and used to make outfits for the girls who lived around the street.
When I was little I spent a lot of time in the Royal Gwent Hospital and I would look out of the window down the street to see if my mother was coming to visit me.
Mrs L McHale, nee Manship, Newport
This picture shows the Royal Gwent Hospital, looking from Rutland Place, across Cardiff Road. These old houses were not included in the Pill demolition and leads from Alma Street to Cardiff Road.
The hospital is considerably changed over the years and the main road seems inundated with endless traffic, with numerous traffic lights from George Street Bridge to the Tredegar Park roundabout.
Jim Dyer, Newport
Another memory about the Masonic Hall Now and Then is Lower Dock Street, Newport. It still seems much the same.
Around the right hand corner is Ruperra Street and behind the building was the cattle market.
Opposite was a GWR goods depot.
Also on Cardiff Road over the rail lines with several exits and known as the Octopus Bridge.
I have often wondered who named your paper, as "Argus" was a mythical Greek monster with a thousand eyes.
William Kiff, Cwmbran

Pigment: Phthalocyanine blue, Earth pigment, Carb. bones of anim.
Lightfastness: ****
Opacity: Semi-opaque
Description: Originally – since the end of the 18th century – gained from the cuttlefish. At that time not lightfast and storable. Replaced by lightfast pigment mixture. Often used for first layers.
Colour Index: PB15:1/PBr7/PBk9
To achieve the outstanding characteristics, like reusable paint when dried on a palette and the high control of paint flow even on soft water-colour papers Schmincke only use the best raw materials. In its colouristic appearance the total assortment is particularly harmonious, balanced and complete.
One main ingredient of the water-colour binding medium is Kordofan Gum Arabic from the southern Sahara region. Like most natural products this traditional water-colour binding medium differs from year to year. Therefore Schmincke is testing Gum Arabic every time before purchase and selects only the best crop of the respective year. This adds small but significant quality advantages. Other formula ingredients are selected equally carefully and of course are integrated in each formula in an individual optimised way to obtain a harmonious assortment, that can be easily picked up by the brush.
Another traditional quality criterion is the re-usability of the Horadam Aquarell water-colours while using the same formulation for tubes and pans. Both properties, the reusability and the control of the paint flow can only be achieved by pouring water-colours into pans in a liquid state, which is really unique.

SOCHI, Russia (AP) — Paul Stastny scored twice during a six-goal barrage in the second period, and the United States got off to a spectacular start in the Olympic men's hockey tournament with a 7-1 victory over Slovakia on Thursday.
Ryan Kesler, David Backes, Phil Kessel and Dustin Brown also scored as the Americans battered Slovakia for six consecutive goals in a 13:51 span, turning what was expected to be a tough matchup into a laugher.
Jonathan Quick made 22 saves in his Olympic debut for the U.S., which hopes to improve on its silver-medal finish in Vancouver despite a roster that isn't thought to have the offensive power of Canada, Russia or Sweden.
In their only warmup for Saturday's showdown with Russia, the Americans didn't need scoring stars to leave Slovakia's two goalies battered.
Jaroslav Halak stopped 20 shots before getting pulled when Stastny tipped home Kevin Shattenkirk's pass to put the Americans up 5-1. Peter Budaj replaced Halak, but Kessel and Brown scored in the next 1:47.
Tomas Tatar scored for Slovakia, which traveled to Sochi without high-scoring Marian Gaborik and veteran defenseman Lubomir Visnovsky due to injury. But nobody anticipated such a defensive collapse by a roster studded with NHL regulars, including Stanley Cup-winning defenseman Zdeno Chara.
Slovakia's last two Olympic games have been humiliations: The Slovaks blew a third-period lead and lost to Finland in the bronze medal game in Vancouver, depriving them of their nation's first Olympic hockey medals.
John Carlson opened the scoring for the U.S. in the first period, and Tatar tied it with a nasty wrist shot in the opening minute of the second. Kesler put the Americans back ahead 1:02 later with a one-timer through Brown's screen, and Stastny scored 1:06 later on a fat rebound of Max Pacioretty's shot.
The U.S. didn't let up until Brown redirected Carlson's pass to make it 7-1, and the once-boisterous Slovak crowd retreated into silence at Shayba Arena.
Kessel had a goal and two assists, while Patrick Kane, T.J. Oshie and James van Riemsdyk added two assists apiece.
Stastny scored his second goal while Slovakia's Tomas Marcinko limped off the ice behind the play with an injury.
Stastny is a two-time U.S. Olympian with a famous Slovak father: Hall of Famer Peter Stastny played extensively for the Czechoslovakian and Slovak national teams alongside his lengthy NHL career.
The Americans' scoring outburst made their goaltending situation seem secondary for a day, but Quick still handled the Slovaks' chances well. U.S. coach Dan Bylsma waited until Wednesday to choose Quick for the first start in goal over Ryan Miller, who backstopped the Americans to silver medals in Vancouver while winning the tournament MVP award.
Quick, who didn't get in a game in Vancouver, emerged as one of the world's top goalies while leading the Los Angeles Kings to a Stanley Cup championship in 2012, but he missed seven weeks of the Kings' current season with a groin injury.

Explosives 'traced to suspect's locker'
Investigators are reported to have found traces of explosives in the locker of an airport baggage handler under investigation for terror-related offences.
The man, Abderazak Besseghir - a French national of Algerian origin, was arrested at Roissy-Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris on Saturday, when weapons and explosives were found in the boot of his car.
Mr Besseghir denies all knowledge of how they got there, and has suggested he may have been framed by relatives of his late wife.
His case will be weakened if it turns out that he personally handled explosives.
The French newspaper Le Parisien quotes an investigator as saying that the alleged find in the locker suggested that a package of explosives had been sent from abroad by plane.
The arsenal found in the boot of his Peugeot included two pistols, five cakes of plastic explosives, two denators and a safety fuse.
Mr Besseghir appeared before an anti-terrorist magistrate on Wednesday, and was placed under formal investigation for criminal association with a terrorist organisation, violations of arms laws, and possession of false documents.
Another man, reported to be his uncle, was also placed under investigation for criminal association with a terrorist organisation, possession of false documents, and illegally entering the country.
Both men were remanded in custody.
Clean record
The firm which employed Mr Besseghir said he had worked at the airport for three years without giving any cause for suspicion.
He had no criminal record, although had reportedly been involved in a vandalism incident five years ago.
Mr Besseghir's wife's family blame him for her death in a fire.
She is reported to have said before she died that she did not want to live by the rules of the "Taleban's Koran".
Paris police have made several arrests in the past two weeks of suspected Islamic militants of Algerian or Moroccan origin.
The authorities say some were planning an attack on the Russian embassy in the city.
Police said they seized bomb-making equipment during two separate raids in Paris's northern suburbs in which nine people were arrested.

PRINCES and princesses may be more of a common sight in Chipping Sodbury this summer as the town's annual festival prepares to delve into the world of Disney.
The 10-day festival, from June 13 to 22, is taking on a Disney theme for 2014 with a schools art exhibition on all things Disney and a carnival procession in which floats will be decorated like some of the corporation's most famous films.
The highlights of this year's festival include headliner Jimmy Cricket, the Irish comedian who has appeared alongside The Krankies, on Saturday, June 14 and a chance to abseil down the side of St John's Church.
There will also be the return of touring opera company Tessitoura with a family friendly performance of Hansel and Gretel, a charity fashion show, local historian Jim Elsworth's Ever Changing Sodbury slide show and the popular music in the street night featuring Bath-based band Vegas and the Battle of the Bands competition winner.
Sodbury Festival chairman Brian Hardy said: "Planning for this year's Chipping Sodbury festival is now complete.
"Amongst the many planned events are some old favourites and some new ones. This year's star act is the very funny Irish comedian Jimmy Cricket with a supporting cast.
"Other events include a team quiz, the Gloucester Cathedral Choir and Voices Together and Blondes with Beards.
"For the adventurous there will be an opportunity to abseil down the church tower in support of the Save the Children funds."
He added: "The final Saturday (June 21) is carnival day, organised by the Lions club of Chipping Sodbury, when colourful floats will parade through the streets and stalls will line Broad Street.
"The day closes with the Last Night of the Proms Concert with the Flowers Band."
The search is now on to find a festival princess and her two attendants. Entries are welcome from 11 to 14-year-olds for the princess role and nine to 11-year-old would-be attendants. Judging will take place on Saturday, March 15.
Entries for the Battle of the Bands competition, to be held on Wednesday, May 7 (7pm) in the town hall, are also being welcomed. An annual poetry competition is also now open, entries must be submitted by May 3.
Festival programmes will be available from April 1 when tickets for events will go on sale at Farrago and Out of the Blue.

Beyonce Flaunts Big Baby Bump at 'Live' Screening (PHOTOS)
Beyonce might be one of those gals who tries to cover up her baby bump at all costs? Think again.Thought
The queen B hit up a screening of her Live at Roseland film on Sunday night looking very pregnant and just as fabulous on the red carpet. Beyonce, clad in a form-fitting brown dress that also showed off a bit of cleavage, had her belly on display in a major way, smiling as photographers snapped away.
Beyonce's Roseland documents a concert she performed at the famed New York City venue this past year.
With her belly getting bigger by the day, Beyonce will be enjoying the holidays this year as a very pregnant woman. She's due to give birth in February.

With two hits on Saturday, New York Yankees team captain Derek Jeter tied Hall of Famer Hank Aaron for a Major league record of 17 consecutive seasons with 150 hits or more.
After singling earlier in the game, Jeter hit an RBI ground-rule double in the sixth inning of New York's 5-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays to tie Aaron's record.
Jeter's streak began in 1996, his rookie season, and has continued for all 17 seasons of his career. In seven of those seasons, he has reached at least 200 hits.
At 38 years old, many critics thought Jeter's best years were far behind him. However, the veteran shortstop is batting .315 this season and leads the American League in hits.
"What he has done in the game goes without saying," Jeter said of Aaron. "I just had to be consistent. You play every year and you hopefully try to stay away from major injuries and be consistent day-in and day-out."
With Jeter returning to the Yankees next season and showing no signs of slowing down, he will have a good chance of breaking Aaron's record next year.
This is the second consecutive season Jeter has hit a major milestone, as the 13-time All-Star reached 3,000 career hits last year.
In honor of Aaron, each year one player from each league is given the Hank Aaron Award for being the league's best hitter, as voted on by fans and media. Jeter won the award in 2006 and 2009 for the American League.

Those funny, bizarre and often alcohol-induced text messages sent in the middle of the night don't necessarily die by dawn.
They can live on in cyberspace, courtesy of textsfromlastnight.com.
The site takes submissions of text messages and posts them anonymously for all the world to read. No registration. No fee. Just enter an area code and the text, then hit send. The wizards behind Texts From Last Night will sort through the entries and post their favorites.
A few examples:
• I knocked on some strangers door, you didn't have to give me a fake hotel room number
• just got pizza delivered to the hot tub. its easier than i thought to be this lazy
Ben Bator and Lauren Leto started the site in February primarily for their friends but expanded it to anyone in late April. It's gone from getting five to 10 text messages a day to 5,000 to 10,000, only a fraction of which get posted on the site. Its Facebook page has more than 174,000 fans.
"It's really interesting what people do after 3 a.m.,'' Bator said. "Generally, it starts with tequila.''
The texts are ambiguous and lack context. People can comment on messages and vote for the best and worst nights, but the entire exchange is anonymous, even to the site's owners. Only the sender knows if the text was real.
Users can submit single texts or a short back and forth exchange.
• dude! the alphabet song and twinkle twinkle little star are like the same tune
• what drug did you take to come to that conclusion??
Texts From Last Night weeds out copyrighted, viciously personal, racist, profane or violent texts. What remains isn't for kids or the prim. These texters aren't shy. Their thumbs often speak of sex, body parts and booze.
Based in Detroit, the site has a large following in the 248 and 313 area codes but gets texts from all over country and even a few countries. Surprisingly — or not — Tampa's 813 is well-represented.
"I want to go to Tampa on a Saturday,'' Bator said. "It sounds fun."
Bator, 22, and Leto, 23, graduated from Michigan State University with law school on the brain. Leto recently finished her first year at Wayne State University; Bator intends to start this fall, he said, hinting that plans could change.
They run Texts From Last Night as mostly a hobby. "I don't know if reading texts all day could be considered a job,'' Bator said with a laugh. Advertising on the site covers most expenses, which are minimal.
Bator and Leto post the texts from their homes, coffee shops and any place with WIFI. The majority of the messages make them laugh. A few just leave them baffled.
"It has a voyeuristic quality,'' Bator said. "The ambiguity makes it more entertaining. You can finish the story of the night in your mind.''

Pond's Luminous Clean Wet Cleansing Towelettes
Pond's Luminous Clean Wet Cleansing Towelettes Reviews
Smell amazing, remove makeup, and great priceI have used Pond's products (mostly the cold cream) and absolutely love them. I found the Luminous Clean line some time ago and was first drawn to the cream cleanser. I have purchased the cleansing cloths and finally decided to review them. I love the fact that they are such a great deal at the drugstore or Target. I paid $5.99 for them at Walgreens but usually they have coupons off the price ...read moreand buy one get one half off. The pack comes with 30 towelettes however there was a bonus and it came with 5 additional towelettes in a small package for travel. I'll be using those this weekend while I travel. Anyways, the smell is so pleasant; very feminine and clean smelling so the name is very fitting. The towelettes themselves have little grooves in them which I suppose is to penetrate the skin and really get in there and remove the dirt. They are very gentle on my skin and don't burn like some cleansing cloths I've used have and really get the dirt and makeup off my face. I normally use cloths before I use my Clarisonic to just have less makeup that gets on my brushhead after and these take most of the makeup off. Also, these are great for keeping in your gym bag after a work out if you are going somewhere directly after and don't want to look all sweaty and red. One big thing I noticed going along with the burning I've felt with some cloths is when I am using them around my eye area (I wear contacts), they do not burn or cause my eye area to feel inflamed or uncomfortable; many products claim to be safe for contact lens wearers and are not! These wipes are some of my favorite cleansing wipes that I've tried along with Neutrogena and Aveeno. For the price and quality, I will continue to repurchase them. — 2 years, 4 months agoLamexicana1 | 221 reviews
Luminous Clean TowelettesI just bought these and for slightly over $4, they were a steal. They smell nice, and left my skin SO soft and smooth, which has never happened with any make-up removing wipe in history. My only problem with these is that, many hours after removing my make-up, as I was getting ready for bed, I found some make-up still on my face. I wasn't wearing a lot to begin with, and when you don't wear a lot ...read moreyou do expect the wipes to get all of it in one shot. I broke out the Clarisonic and eliminated the problem, which only took me a minute, but these immediately lost some points for not getting every bit off. The following morning there was some slight liner residue under my eyes which happens with even the best make-up removers, especially if you line the upper inner rims. Otherwise, I think these are pretty great and they are definitely going to replace my previous brand. — 4 years, 8 months agoMissPoison | 249 reviews
Love Pond's Towelettes, but These Aren't My FaveI love all of the Pond's towelettes and have used the purple (lavendar), blue (normal) and yellow (citrus). These aren't really my favorite as I'm not sure that they remove make up well or leave my skin feeling as clean and soft as the others. If I hadn't tried the others (citrus is my favorite), then maybe I'd give a higher rating but these are just good. They are much better than other brands, but I don't notice any brightening. These are still not a waste of money. — 2 years, 7 months agosprout117 | 221 reviews

TELL-TALE ELECTRIC POE, Returns to The Coterie
The Coterie Theatre blends horrifying with humorous in the theatre's acclaimed Tell-Tale Electric Poe based on the works of Edgar Allan Poe February 23 - March 10. The concept and adaptation of this two-person show is by Jeff Church.
In a masterful blending of actor (Hughston Walkinshaw) and musician (Rex Hobart), expertly selected Poe stories and poems are complemented by musical underscoring and retorts from a reactive electric guitar. The production overflows with poetry, riffs, ghosts and morbid prose floating in an atmospheric setting.
"I've loved working with Hughston as he takes on five distinct characters from Poe," said director Jeff Church. "It's riveting to witness how Rex Hobart on guitar can compliment Hughston's performance. It's intense fun to hear Poe's words with Rex's music!"
"In the play I've adapted for our stage, we have included The Pit and the Pendulum,The Tell-Tale Heart, as well as the poems Alone, The Bells, and The Raven. For each, Walkinshaw will play a distinct and separate character. Rex Hobart will provide underscoring that is specific to each pulse and beat, as well as provide retorts and effects that will echo man's descent into madness," he said.
Prior to its two-week run on stage at Crown Center, the Coterie's production of Tell-Tale Electric Poe will tour the Kansas City area with 24 performances in middle schools, high schools, and libraries. The tour will also include two performances at Missouri State University in Springfield.
The Coterie's production of Tell-Tale Electric Poe is for preteens and young adults. It is funded in part by the Missouri Arts Council, ArtsKC Fund, and Theatre League.
The live production is performed by Hughston Walkinshaw with music composed and performed by Rex Hobart. The artistic and Production Company includes Jeff Church (director), Scott "Rex" Hobart (composer/set designer/technical director), Georgianna Londre (costume designer), Art Kent (lighting designer), Dan Warneke (sound), Fiona Carmody (stage manager), Ron MeGee (properties), and Brian Atkins (board operator and special effects).
The Coterie Theatre, now in its 34th Season and named "One of the Five Best Theaters for Young Audiences in the U.S." by TIME magazine, will perform Tell-Tale Electric Poe February 23 - March 10, 2013, in its theater located on level one of Crown Center Shops in Kansas City, MO. Press / Opening Performances will be held on Saturday, February 23, and Sunday, February 24, 2013, at 2:00 p.m. Tickets are $10.00 for youth under 18, students and seniors (60 and older); $15.00 for adults. Groups of 20 or more pay only $5.50 per person on weekdays and $6.50 on weekends (with advance order). Season ticket holders pay $9.00 per production when purchasing 3 or more shows. Tickets may be purchased by calling Coterie's box office at (816) 474-6552, dropping by the theater on level one of the Crown Center Shops, or by visiting www.coterietheatre.org.

When we dressed in our Easter best
Easter Sunday is this coming weekend. That's enough time to buy a dress, a new dress; not my usual black, maybe a turquoise or a pretty shade of green.
And maybe I'll find a new hat to match, something with roses, peachy pink roses in full bloom.
There was a time when everyone I knew bought new clothes to celebrate Easter and intentionally or not, joined in the pagan recognition of springtime when the world sheds the drabness of winter and there is the promise of new life.
Easter triggered the green light to wear white shoes and straw hats.
Gone were the patent leathers and anything resembling wool.
Mama loved to buy Easter "outfits" for her granddaughters. Sometimes, she would buy the same dress for our three little girls who had come one right after the other, less than two years apart, although there was no way they looked like triplets.
But they could look ever so innocent and sweet all fancied up in their new clothes, their hair all curly from being rolled up in rags the night before.
Trying to put on their finery and at the same time keep them away from their Easter baskets where chocolate reigned supreme and melted ever so easily in little hands that smeared everything they touched took the patience of a saint and I had bunions on the knees praying for that virtue.
I was known to moan more than once, "I'm about to lose my religion."
Somewhere in a box of 8 millimeter films that lays neglected in a closet smelling of dust motes and mothballs, there must be the old home movies of our little girls in dresses of two yard skirts and their mandatory scratchy petticoats, pastel dresses of organdy with puff sleeves that were a pain to iron and big bow sashes that never stayed tied and dragged on the ground searching for the nearest mud puddle.
Those family movies were of Easter, birthdays, Christmas, birthdays, Thanksgiving, birthdays, graduations, confirmations and birthdays.
Always, always, when we gathered on the rare occasion to watch these family movies, it would be a struggle to put up the screen, drag over a table just the right height for the projector and find an extension cord that was long enough. When we finally got all settled and the tape threaded through correctly, and that was not easy, the tape would break before you could say "turn out the lights" and the splicer would misbehave in sympathy.
I came across one of the children's frilly Easter hats the other day where it lay, a shapeless mess in the bottom of a drawer filled with scarves.
The girls hated those hats. They itched and slid around on their heads. It didn't take long before both hats and the white gloves I insisted they wear to church had disappeared into that never never land of mismatched hair barrettes and socks.
No one sits together eating popcorn and laughing over home movies anymore.
Memorable moments of today are instantly recorded on digital devices bought at Best Buy and shared with a minimum of effort through Facebook or Twitter or Tweetsie or HeyYou.
Somehow, it isn't the same.
And maybe, I'll go tomorrow and look for a purple dress.
