The Marvelous Missing Link Found Review from Rapreview.com
The Marvelous Missing Link Found Review from Rapreview.com is a review from outside the Juggalo world looking in. Our very own Naptown Mike had done his review on The Marvelous Missing Link (Found) a few weeks ago, now it's time to get an outside review from others. Check out what they have to say below.
To review an ICP album is to admit that I both respect what they've achieved while simultaneously not being able to understand the mythos they've built up around it. If you're not a Juggalo it's probably impossible to, but unlike the misguided members of law enforcement I won't refer to them as a gang or a cult. "Juggalos" are just really supportive fans, the kind who are likely to have all 35 or more of ICP's albums, and probably a few bootleg concert recordings. Even if you stick to "studio albums" this is the 14th, which is a financial investment any way you slice it. They're likely to have the Hatchet Warrior tattooed on their body somewhere, or a decal for the logo in their car's rear window, or a slew of their merchandise featuring it (hats, t-shirts, posters, and anything you can think of). They've probably been to the Gathering at least once if not multiple times. I respect that kind of dedication, and I respect ICP for building up a worldwide fanbase that's that appreciative of everything they do. In fact in the day and age where it's incredibly easy to bootleg almost any album before it's even released, the loyalty of Juggalos is a testament to recording artists of how to succeed in the internet age.
As for me I'm not a Juggalo by any definition you could name, and the clearest indication of that is that "The Tempest" is the last ICP album I bought – over eight years ago. I'm just not that committed to their work, I've never been sucked into the mythos surrounding the "Carnival," and if I attempted to explain it I'm pretty sure that I'd upset a hardcore fan by how inaccurate it would be. Therefore I won't even begin to do so, because in the aforementioned internet age, there's no shortage of ICP fan sites and official resources to help you sort it all out. I'm told this that "The Marvelous Missing Link (Found)" is "the second part of the 3rd Joker Card in the second deck of the Dark Carnival Saga." I'll just accept that what that means is that this album is part of a larger story, spread out over multiple albums, grouped into multiple series. The good news is that if you're not hardcore enough to own all the albums and see how they all connect together, the bar for entry into ICP's discography is pretty low. They like to drink, they like to party, they like to smoke, and they like to f@$#. Take "Pineapple Pizza" for example:
Violent J: "I met a girl named Cindy, she was fine
She liked to get drunk on red wine
She had cinnamon flavored lipstick
When she blew me it burned my dipstick
But she was funny, and she was nice
I hit it the first day and f#%@$d her twice
She took me home, and locked the door
and played old s#%t from Al B. Sure
Pineapple pizza and Faygo red pop
She shut the shades, and checked the deadlock
Somebody knocked on the door all night
but we laid low, and killed the light
They kept knockin and finally split
She broke out with her own sex kit
Freaky toys, but I was straight
Cause I can make my own d#%$ vibrate!"
As it turns out his partner Shaggy 2 Dope was the one knocking on the door, and loudly complains "I've been deceived/I even paid for that b@%$#'s weave!" They don't let Cindy come between them though. Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J are as well met as any two rappers can be in the hip-hop industry, and they come together to complain that they don't even like pineapple pizza, and Al B. Sure is a one hit wonder. That's part of the secret of their success – the bond of brothership they show through all of their narratives, and one which they encourage their Juggalo fans to share with each other. The curious thing is that bond now seems to include God too, and Christianity isn't something you would normally associate with these self-admitted hellraisers. Nevertheless both the intro and "Found" express a deep abiding respect for spirituality, which may just be a sign the duo are changing as mellowing (slightly) as they mature.
"I don't wanna fear death and I don't wanna fear Hell
I wanna sleep at night, knowing my soul is well
I'm not an atheist, I believe in the magic
This career – I believe God let me have it
I found my +Missing Link+ and I'm shining
Other still trying, the hill they climbing
I know my soul is content and free
How could I have worry when I hold the key?"
I never imagined I'd ever hear a song from ICP professing their belief in anything other than the next party they can attend and p#%@y they can tap, but I'm going to take this confession at face value even as it stands next to songs like "Get Clowned." This track is more like what you'd expect from the group, bragging about being off their meds and prison rape, whooping the asses of their haters, and laughing in the face of probation officers. Unbridled hedonism is part and parcel of their appeal, even if the lyrics describing it border on being insanely simplistic. It's not as though ICP couldn't try to write a thoughtful song, it's just that when they do it turns into a "Miracles" style internet meme. Even then it only helped Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J's bottom line, because the more people thought they were laughing at the absurd odes to rainbows and magnets, the group was simply laughing all the way to the bank at the publicity helping their album sales

They can't ALL be crappy can they? Been a while since quest update. Does anyone know if there are quest strings? (besides main story and guild) Is there a fame system or anything to reward you for questing besides 10k or mediocre things i can buy for cheap in the wards anyways.
If there isn't there should be, then something might actually get valuable in this game besides extremely high quality +??? equipment.

JERUSALEM — US Secretary of State John Kerry, a former Massachusetts senator, worked with flinty New England restraint to achieve what many thought impossible: the announcement of the resumption of Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations.
That was Friday.
By Monday, the cacophonous Middle East seemed about to blot out his hard won feat. Headlines blasted that Israelis were skeptical and Palestinians wary of his proposal.
Worse, a spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said flat out that no agreement had been finalized.
US State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki scrambled to rectify the growing impression that Kerry may have misunderstood the Palestinians, unequivocally telling reporters that "an agreement between parties to resume final status negotiations" had been achieved.
More from GlobalPost: Kerry announces agreement to restart Israeli-Palestinian peace talks
"She said that the contradictory nature of statements by Palestinian sources meant that some of the reports were necessarily false," reported the Israeli online newspaper, Times of Israel.
What's at stake are the final borders of a future Palestinian state, control over the contested city of Jerusalem, Jewish settlements in the West Bank and the status of several million Palestinian refugees.
The Israeli government seemed on the verge of implosion, with one senior minister threatening to vote against the national budget — and thus threaten the survival of the fragile coalition — if he didn't receive the assurance that any future peace agreement would be subject to a referendum.
In fact, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's own Likud party, which is splintering into a small, center-right core and a larger, Tea Party-like extreme right, seemed about to bolt the coalition.
Israeli Transportation Minister Yisrael Katz said Sunday he supports the renewal of talks but is opposed to the creation of a Palestinian state.
What had the weekend wrought?
"We've been in this movie, the renewal of talks — what? — 22 or 23 times since the early nineties," said Ronni Shaked, a political analyst at the Hebrew University's Truman Institute.
"But maybe this time," he added, "maybe the Americans are more serious. And maybe the Israeli public has better understood that it is for our benefit. And the Palestinians, maybe they understood that they've just wasted the past five years, with no negotiations and 60,000 or 70,000 more settlers."
For many longtime observers of the Israeli-Palestinian waltz, the weekend's eruption looked like déjà vu all over again.
More from GlobalPost: Israeli-Palestinian peace talks: What does each side want?
The analysts approached for this article labored to recall an instance when the resumption of peace negotiations had not been greeted by the threat to topple the government, from the Israeli right, and by a flurry of contradictory statements, from the Palestinian leadership.
"On both sides, we already know this story well," Shaked said. "All the disappointments and the frustrations."
"There's a lack of confidence on both sides," said veteran Palestinian peace negotiator Ziad Abu Zayyad, when asked about the muddle. "All the disappointments and frustrations from the past… The Palestinians don't believe Netanyahu has changed, especially when they don't hear anything about a settlement freeze, so they have doubts."
"I'm telling you, each time it's the same, and nothing happens," he too, sighed.
When asked if Kerry may have overstated the advances made toward negotiations, Abu Zayyad initially said "I think Kerry exaggerated, and apparently wanted to leave with the impression that he succeeded and something is happening."
But then he stopped, and said the answer to the question was to be found in an old parable about diplomats.
"When a diplomat says maybe, he means no; and when he says yes, it means maybe. And if he says no, he's not a diplomat," Abu Zayyad said. "And when a lady says no, she means maybe; and if she says maybe, she means yes; and if she says yes, she is not a lady."
But, even here, not everyone is as jaded with the routine of resuming peace talks.
Hillel Schenker, a veteran of the Israeli peace movement and co-editor, with Abu Zayyad, of the Palestine-Israel Journal, says that "despite everything, this is an opportunity."
"The Arab League also says it's the last chance," he said. "So it is not just another round of the many rounds in the same river — because the rivers have changed, reality has changed around us. We are at a very particular juncture in Israeli and Palestinian history."
"It is entirely possible that this is the last realistic opportunity to move towards a two state solution while it is still a viable option."

Set at a small, affluent liberal-arts college in New England at the height of the Reagan '80s, The Rules of Attraction is a startlingly funny, kaleidoscopic novel about three students with no plans for the future - or even the present - who become entangled in a curious romantic triangle.
Bret Easton Ellis trains his incisive gaze on the kids at self-consciously bohemian Camden College and treats their sexual posturings and agonies with a mixture of acrid hilarity and compassion while exposing the moral vacuum at the center of their lives.
Lauren changes boyfriends every time she changes majors and still pines for Victor, who split for Europe months ago, and she might or might not be writing anonymous love letters to ambivalent, hard-drinking Sean, a hopeless romantic who only has eyes for Lauren - even if he ends up in bed with half the campus - and Paul, Lauren's ex, forthrightly bisexual and whose passion masks a shrewd pragmatism. They waste time getting wasted, race from Thirsty Thursday Happy Hours to Dressed to Get Screwed parties to drinks at The Edge of the World or The Graveyard. The Rules of Attraction is a poignant, hilarious take on the death of romance.
As an added bonus, when you purchase our Audible Modern Vanguard production of Bret Easton Ellis' book, you'll also get an exclusive Jim Atlas interview that begins when the audiobook ends.
"Serves to establish Mr. Ellis's reputation further as one of the primary inside sources in upper-middle-class America's continuing investigation of what has happened to its children." (The New York Times Book Review)
"Ellis is, first and last, a moralist. Under cover of his laconic voice, every word in his [novels] springs from grieving outrage at our spiritual condition." (Los Angeles Times Book Review)
"Inspired. A wonderfully comic novel." (Gore Vidal)

An international trailer has surfaced for Disney/Pixar's prequel Monsters University, which opens June 21. (This played before Wreck-It Ralph over the weekend in the UK; the domestic trailer is going out with Disney's Oz The Great And Powerful when that pic premieres March 8.) The new full-length trailer fleshes out the plot that finds Mike (Billy Crystal) and Sully (John Goodman) in their college years — something the teaser released back in June with Brave accomplished pretty much spot-on in one scene. So what exactly will a full-length feature add to the party?
Hot Overseas Trailer: 'Monsters University'
4 Comments
As much as I truly love MI, I have to agree…
Huge fan of MI and this trailer didn't even make me smile, just made me ask "Why bother?"
By itself, it looks resonable but I don't think its going to be as good as Monsters Inc. I just think this is a college film with monster puns whereas monsters inc explored the world a lot more with screams as energy and having boo which, aside from comic relief, brought emotion. Boo is a brave girl but even she was afraid by Randall. Sulley also scared her in one scene and then he and mike got thrown into the mountains.

Sean M. Thompson's
The Demon
illustration by Brendan O'Connell
Cort's phone buzzed in his pocket. It caused him to flinch. The rectangle of glass and plastic vibrated like a thing alive, angry. He answered, never taking his eyes off Janet's corpse.
"Hi honey, it's mom."
"Oh, uh…hey, mom."
"How are you doing?"
He noticed for the first time there were scratch marks in the floor from her nails. Jesus, he couldn't have killed someone, like, really fucking killed someone. Murder was an act criminals performed: drug dealers shooting rivals, madmen stalking prostitutes down dark alleys. Cort knew in his heart he wasn't a criminal. And yet the body in his apartment, the dead woman staring lifeless, would suggest otherwise.
He felt sick all over again, and had to swallow it down.
"Mom, it's, uh, not a good time right now. Can I call you back?"
"I haven't talked to you in almost a month, Cort. Come on."
"Mom, I'm really feeling sick. Please."
"Oh. Well, promise me you'll call me tomorrow."
"I promise."
"Okay. Feel better honey. Love you."
"Love you too, mom. And, uh, try not to use the internet."
"Ask dad about it."
"Okay. Talk to you tomorrow, Cort."
"Love you, Mom."
He hung up the phone, and now that the initial shock had worn off, there was a hurricane inside his mind. I need to get rid of the body, but no, what I really need to do is turn myself in!
He paced the room, grabbing his hair between clenched fists. This wasn't my fault. I know I'd never kill anyone if I wasn't being…swayed by whatever the hell was in that computer virus.
He nearly tripped on Janet's body, looked into her terrified face, and started crying.
"No. No, no – "
Why would I do this?
This woman, Janet, he'd dreamt of building a life with. Moving in together, long nights in, laughing and smiling, sharing stories. Making love, and the mundane stuff like going to pick out their first couch at Ikea, or meeting her parents. The visions now just so much mud smeared over a pastoral canvas.
Do you really want to go to jail? This was self defense.
"Bullshit this was self defense! Who's in my head?"
Get it together, Cort, it's just you. It's always just been you.
"No. No, I can't believe that!"
But the more he thought about it, the more doubts he had. She'd had enough fight in her to scratch into the floor, who was to say she didn't force him to kill her?
"That's insane. She…Janet loved me!"
Did she really love you though, Cort? She barely knew you. And you barely knew her.
The fact remained no matter what his reason had been, and no matter what was going on, he had to get rid of the body. Cort labored under no delusions: if he went to prison, he would be beaten, repeatedly raped, and would probably get hooked on smack to deal with the pain and the horror of the cage.
Most importantly, he didn't think turning himself in made sense. When he searched his mind, he knew there was an unwanted visitor. But there was something the visitor didn't want him to know. Sometimes, when he would think, he got the sense it wasn't him thinking, and there would be a desperation to his thoughts. Almost like a thing inside was trying very hard to convince him he was thinking his own thoughts, only it kept failing to execute the illusion effectively.
"You're failing. You've never had this much resistance before, have you?"
He had no idea how he knew what he did, but his instincts had always been strong.
This was not the time for introspection, though. If he was going to figure out how to beat this thing, how to warn others, if he could, he had to get rid of the body. And, God help him, he knew how.
It involved doing some stuff he was really not looking forward to.
Cort had bought the reciprocating saw to help Scott put up some drywall. Anything to help his friend save some dough, right? He'd bought a long blade, and this proved to be useful when he started in on the terrible work. The black trash bags he just had. He'd never liked the idea of people being able to see into his garbage.
The bleach was already under the sink, which proved useful on the tub. He threw up three times, and after the third found a stillness inside which allowed for the strength to finish, free of emotional turmoil. In this numb state, he bagged the rest of the pieces of the body, sans fingers and teeth, which he had cut off, and wrenched out, respectively, with a pair of plyers.
Almost done, almost done, he thought, over and over.
He made a stop at the kitchen to take a deep swallow from a bottle of Wild Turkey in his cabinet.
The furnace in the basement was the best option. Speed was imperative. Quiet was necessary, and he couldn't run into anyone.
Breathing as slowly and deeply as possible, psyching himself up, with the two black trash bags in his hands. If he'd been struck with a fatal heart attack, or an aneurism at that moment, it would have been a blessing. Yet, his body was fine, save for the adrenaline responses, which were to be expected, and the shock, which too was expected.
Without meaning to, Cort burst through his front door, then slowed his steps, and made his way to the stairwell as quietly as he could. No one yet, thank Jesus, and he rushed, but in a measured way, so as not to seem too deliberate. A door started to open behind him, and he rushed around the corner, and increased his pace.
Just get to the fucking furnace. Just get there, and get rid of the evidence.
Even as he turned the corner into the basement proper, he realized the furnace probably wouldn't entirely get rid of Janet's body. There would surely be bone left over. Burning her body would buy him some time, though.
Maybe I should dump her remains in the harbor?
But there was that show he watched where the millionaire tried to do that, and the bags just floated to the surface.
Maybe I should do both?
No, that was stupid. He'd burn the remains as best he could. Besides, there were cameras everywhere nowadays. He was fucked if anyone even began sniffing around. This was a temporary solution to a problem that would require a better plan later, when the smoke had settled.
Pipes unfurled from the body of the giant stove like protracted limbs, snaking along the ceiling, tensed and ready to strike. Crazy or not, he pictured them smashing down, beating his flesh bloody; cracking and snapping his bones until he was just a screaming creature, all purple flesh, slack appendages, and unending pain, a bloody sack of bone shards, flayed skin, and burst organs.
The furnace, all gleaming metal and flames behind slatted metal teeth, inspected him with the indifference of a machine that lurked in shadow. A metallic beast, breathing fire, inhaling, and exhaling. The metal expanding, and contracting.
Cort was afraid to open the door.
An animal chittering behind him.
"Hello?" he called out, heart thumping in his chest.
Something scurried through the darkness.
"Is somebody there?"
A crash, and an empty soda can rattled out from the gloom. Was it a raccoon? Christ, what if it was rabid?
The furnace kept breathing. Cort opened up the grate, slow, unsure if the mouth of the machine would clamp shut, biting through the meat of his arms.
He tossed the bags full of Janet into the fires.
Another animal squeal behind him.
What he saw couldn't possibly be real, absolutely not.
There was a creature, hunched, about the size of a big dog, standing on its hind legs.
"W-what?" was all he could manage.
Another creature appeared to his left. This was only partially obscured by shadow. Scaly flesh, almost reptilian, dark, practically black. A slit of an eye, the murky red of fresh blood.
Cort froze, not sure what to do. What did one do when faced with the impossible?
The furnace kept breathing.
The beings stood still, yet he could hear them hissing, mewling. One darted towards him, and he had to bite his lip to keep from screaming. The thing ran past him, opened up the grate to the furnace, and dived in.
Dumbfounded, all Cort could do was watch as the other creature ran past him, and also dived into the furnace.
They were sifting through something inside the flames, and at first Cort was too overwhelmed to piece it all together. Then, understanding locked into place, and his mind opened to pure, unadulterated terror.
The creatures were eating Janet's charred bones.
The things were destroying any evidence.
He ran back up the stairs. When he finally got into his apartment, Cort locked the door after him. Terrified as he was, the second Cort's head hit the cushion of his couch, he fell asleep.
Something was choking him.
His eyes adjusted through a crimson haze of burst blood vessels. A laptop charger cable was twisted around his throat. Gasping for breath, Cort wrenched the cord free. The cable led to a laptop, floating in the air before him. Its screen was bleeding.
All the love in the world, a stranger's voice said softly in his head.
The sky was a dark lilac, the dirt a bleached pink. Things shrieked through the sky: laptops, a few tablets, and some smart phones, all flapping black bat wings.
Cort turned, and saw a creature, aqua blue skin, with a computer monitor for a head. A cable led from the monitor to its chest, where a massive port merged the cable with flesh.
All the while he felt a massive presence near, while the stranger's voice reassured him –
All the love in the world.
In the logic of dreams, he was suddenly outside his apartment building, the sky around it still that dark purple, the dirt still that bleached-out pink.
On the roof, a rose colored creature, something like a pig – but where its eyes should have been, an inverted cross, an enter button. An extension cord for a tongue lolled out of its screaming mouth. Around the base of the apartment building were human faces, ethernet cables snaking out of their wide-stretched mouths, traveling into various ports on various floors of the building.
A rumbling, and the ground crumbled apart. Blue flames shot up from a freshly formed pit. And from that pit, a behemoth of plastic and flesh. Bone white, giant demonic black wings outstretched; two mammoth laptops on its right and left shoulders, attached to a computer monitor in the center. Every monitor had one enormous, unblinking green eye, a slit of black pupil on the screens.
All the love in the world.
His body broke out in sores, which burned him down deep, all over. And still the voice kept reassuring –
All the love in the world.
The giant, the same height as his apartment building, beat its massive wings, its obsidian eyes staring into the depths of him.
All the love in the world.
"All the love in the world," Cort replied.
The pain was unbearable, but he couldn't control his voice: he spoke, it spoke, something else spoke through him. He itched, and burned, and tried to scream, but couldn't manage.
Massive ethernet cables shot from the blue flames around the computer beast, wrapping themselves around him. They dragged him towards the pit. Ever so slowly they pulled him towards the flame, and he fought, but they were too strong. The sores on his body opened up, and the massive blue flames drew nearer, the cables pulling him closer, ever closer.
All the love –
"In the world," he coughed out.
This hatred we unfurl.
He dug his hands into the dirt, but it was no use. The heat melted his sneakers. The cuffs of his pants burst into flames.
Cort stared up, to the thing which blotted out the sky. To the towering demonic beast, which stared down with three monitor faces, bat wings, and unfeeling reptilian eyes.
Welcome to the Netherworld.
His flesh burned, and he couldn't even scream.
He screamed, and gasped for air.
He sat at his kitchen table. There was a plate in front of him, and the lingering taste of something on his tongue.
He stared down at the plate and froze.
He would have recognized that thigh anywhere.
Vomit exploded from his mouth, and drenched the table, his shirt. He actually fell off of the chair from the force of his retching.
When had he put a piece of Janet in his refrigerator?
When had he cooked a piece of her flesh?
She was so delicious, wasn't she?
She was so scrumptious, and you still have a few delicious bites for tomorrow.
"No, no, no, no, no – "
He ran for the whisky as fast as he could. Desperate to find his couch, but it was moved again, this time it was in the corner of the room.
Cort dropped himself down onto the cushions, and drank deeply of the Wild Turkey. Yes, that was wonderful, he needed to just breathe, and everything would be okay, he just needed to slow down, he'd figure out how to beat this thing, but not now, now he just needed to relax, or he was going to have a heart attack.
That's it, just relax.
"Get out."
But there's no one to send out, dude. I'm you. It's just you.
It's always been just you.
"I wouldn't do this! I…I would never!"
And yet you have.

Winona Ryder is a Frantic '80s Mom in Netflix Trailer for 'Stranger Things'
Following up a critically acclaimed role in HBO's Show Me a Hero, Winona Ryder returns to TV in the upcoming Netflix series Stranger Things. Looking like a hardcore homage to Steven Spielberg and Stephen King with a Blade Runner-esque soundtrack, the first trailer for the show has hit the web and stirred up excitement for anyone who's been waiting for a vehicle to showcase Winona. Not to mention those E.T. meets Without a Trace vibes!
The series is set in small-town Indiana in the 1980s. Ryder plays Joyce Byers, whose son disappears mysteriously putting her into a panic. She enlists the help of the small-town police, but a group of her son's friends conduct their own search, encountering strange things including a girl with a shaved head and a mystery of her own. There are distinct alien and supernatural happenings afoot.
"Ninety-nine out of 100 times a kid goes missing, the kid is with a parent or relative" says David Harbour as the police officer speaking to the frantic Byers. "Well, what about the other time? You said 99 out of 100. What about the other time? The one?" she responds. As ragged as she looks, Winona Ryder is the mom I'd want looking for me if I went missing.
As an '80s/'90s teen queen it seems fitting for Ryder to return to the decade in this new role. This may not be the grown up Lydia Deetz or Veronica she was born to play but we'll take what we can get! And now that we see just how mysterious the show looks it remains one of our most hotly anticipated new shows, especially among Netflix's original offerings.
In a recent interview with PEOPLE Ryder talked about taking on the role:
"It's all about trying something new… This is a genre that I enjoy watching, but haven't necessarily explored before, which drew me to the project… I think the audience will love the nostalgic voyage back in time before technology had completely took over. Kids were asked to put their toys away at dinner – not their phones. Yet, there were astronauts who were going to space and government conspiracies loomed. It was just such a different world back then."
Stranger Things premieres July 15 on Netflix.

I am going to bake a wedding cake to freeze. What is the best thing to protect it with? I was going to wrap it in foil. Also, when de-frosting, do you have to take it out of the foil completly or can it just defrost in the foil?
I wrap my cakes in two layers of plastic wrap and freeze.
DO NOT unwrap the cake while it thaws. You need the wrap to keep the moisture in the cake as it thaws or it will dry out.
Is plastic wrap cling film (for the UK). I guessed that if I defrosted it in the wrap, it may go soggy? Does the cling film protect the base while you lift the cake, won't it come apart when fresh?
I place th cake on a cardboard cake round and then wrap with plastic wrap (cling film). That way it is sturdy. By leaving the wrap on the cake when you thaw you keep the moisture in; otherwise your cake would dry out.
Yes, platic wrap would be cling film. I've gotten several sizes big storage bags from restaraunt supply store and they work great. I usually don't freeze cakes for more than 2-3 weeks. What I do is thaw unwrapped, because there's usually frozen moisure inside the bag, even when I double them. I do lay the (dried) bags or plastic on top as they thaw. But, I spread the frosting in between the layers while still frozen. The layers handle easily and if you don't get them on straight they can be easily moved without sticking and breaking. Works great, especially the big layers! But, make sure they are completely thawed and room temp before being frosted. Get them out (and frost in between) the night before.
is it absolutley necessary to take them out of the cling film before thawing? The reason I am asking is that I will be using someone elses deep freeze which lives about 10 minutes away by car. If I am to thaw the cakes the night before could I instruct my relative just to take the cakes out the night before (and not do anything else) until I arrive the next morning?
I think if you wrap it twice it should be fine. The cling wrap will be right on the cake. Bags don't fit close so that's probably why I get frost on the inside of the bag. I have also put the icing in the middle of the layers and froze them that way, then that step is done! I still freeze the bigger layers first then spread the frosting and stick them back in the freezer, just because they're so much easier to handle. Good luck!
I defrost mine with the plastic wrap/cling and tin foil left on and I don't have any problems. Just make sure they lay the cake flat and don't stack the layers on top of each other while they're defrosting.
The wedding is on 15th October but as I am going on holiday for 2 weeks at the end of september I thought I'd start early. Do you think it was too early to bake the cake and freeze today? I wanted to take away the stress.
Yes. But I seem to really be able to pick up the flavor of freezer more than other people. I would wait until September to do it. Or if you're returning in early October do it then.
In my last post I had already put the cake in the oven. Should I worry about the taste in October?
I personally have never frozen a cake for that long. Someone else can probably answer that better.
I usually don't freeze for more that a month, but according to most cookbooks and guides, cake can freeze up to 3 months. Just wrap very good and airtight.
I freeze every cake I do and this is what I do: bake, level in pan, cool on wire rack then torte. Wrap each layer in press and seal wrap then wrap the entire tier in press and seal (don't like foil, it leaves dents). Then when I'm ready to use the cake I take them out of the freezer, unwrap, fill and crumbcoat and let settle for at least 3 hours. This allows any air/gas to escape as well as any filling to sploosh out while the cake comes up to room temp. Then I resmooth out my crumbcoat and cover with fondant.
My own personal preference is to fill/crumbcoat while frozen to keep the moisture crystals inside the cake while it thaws. I found that if I let the cake thaw first not only were the layers harder to deal with but the top/edges were a bit soggy.
HTH. Cat
I've always allowed them to thaw inside the plastic wrap. Thinik of it this way--you wouldn't take bread out of the freezer, then lay it out unwrapped to thaw. Those crystals are moisture from inside the cake, and need to go back inside as the cake thaws.
The wedding is on 15th October but as I am going on holiday for 2 weeks at the end of september I thought I'd start early. Do you think it was too early to bake the cake and freeze today? I wanted to take away the stress.
That would be fine. I'd double wrap in plastic, freeze, take out and wrap in foil. I too don't like the dents foil will put into a cake, but freezing first pretty much elminates them.
"I've always allowed them to thaw inside the plastic wrap. Thinik of it this way--you wouldn't take bread out of the freezer, then lay it out unwrapped to thaw. Those crystals are moisture from inside the cake, and need to go back inside as the cake thaws."
This is why I fill and crumbcoat it right away. While frozen I can manipulate the layers easier as well as crumbcoat easier than when they are thawed out. After I crumbcoat the icing traps in the moisture but not the escaping gas/air. This allows me to work with a stable cake but end up serving a very moist one.
As I said, this is my method and anyone looking for a new method should try them out to see what works best for THEM....it may not necessarily be mine or someone elses but a combo of techniques. The best we can do on here is give tips about what has worked or is working for us personally.
Now...also another point to make. I live in No. California...for those living in the South or in another country the ingredents used and the climate/environment is totally different so pleasekeep this in mind when trying new techniques out.

Rewind Time: Chapter 22: ISA Offices: Going Home. The Lies Behind the Truth: September 20th, 2011
Shane started to give Jack a quick overview of the fallout of his undercover operation. Jack didn't want to know, or maybe it was that he really didn't care to hear about the gruesome details of the failed mission he was once a part of. But respectfully so, he let Shane tell the story about how the ISA had lost several agents on the roadside ambush that day, and while some were captured, many others had been killed, and a few narrowly escaped. Shane apologized profusely for the mission having gone wrong. Guilt ridden for having offered Jack the job as reporter in the first place, he knew there was nothing he could say or do that would make what Jack went through any easier.
Nervously pacing in the small confines the foreign ISA office, Shane was hesitant to divulge the hard truths, knowing Jack's sensitive state of mind. He knew the things he needed to tell Jack might be difficult for him to hear. In a lame effort to ease his guilty conscience, he wasted time with idle chit chat. Deep down, Shane knew that no amount of time would rectify the pain of what he had to say. Shane refused to keep Jack in the dark about what happened after he left on assignment, and was poised to reveal some hurtful truths... soon....really soon.... as soon as he could work up the nerve to do it.
The ISA offices in Germany were old, Jack noted. He looked around room, there was nothing special about, except that it didn't have any windows in it. Complete privacy Jack surmised, fully distracted by the strange smell it possessed. Jack sat sloppily in a chair, almost forgetting what it was like to act normal. Dressed in a suit and tie, he thought he would feel more like himself, but he didn't. Jack felt very uncomfortable in his own skin.
Fixated on an unusual statue situated on the bookshelf directly behind the desk, Jack was only half listening, as Shane talked endlessly about the special Search and Rescue Team, with no mention of Steve's name in the conversation. Jack was highly surprised and somewhat unnerved. Jack was sure that Steve's affiliation with then the ISA put him in the know about everything, even if he didn't work in the same department as Shane. Jack refused to believe that his brother would stay way or remain uninvolved if he knew Jack was in trouble. Jack's mind roamed with many possible scenarios, some good and some bad. Skeptically, Jack started to wonder if Steve had been out searching for him... and that maybe something bad had happened. In Jack's mind, the whole conversation was odd. Shane talked a lot about nothing. Jack suspected Shane was probably not at liberty to say very much and Jack was not ready to ask.
He quickly dismissed the awful thoughts that crossed him mind. Jack was desperate to know the truth. He was certain that he would have known if something terrible had happened to his brother......he assured himself that he would know....after all, they were as close as any brothers could be....Steve had given Jack one of his kidneys.Jack vowed no more thoughts about Steve....he was just not ready to go there.
As Shane strangely continued on his long winded review of the events after the missions' ambush and the long road leading up to his rescue, Jack became restless. He suddenly felt the urge to get up and leave, but had nowhere to go. Panic started to set in.
It was obvious that Shane was going on about things in an attempt to avoid what Jack wanted to hear about most.
Not wanting to be rude, Jack let him go on a while longer, while his mind started to veer off track. He was sickly focus on the fact that a whole year had passed in the lives of Jennifer, Abigail and Jack Jr., since he was gone and he couldn't even begin to imagine what they had been through.
When Shane started to repeat parts of the story, Jack put his hands over his ears to indicate he had had enough.
"Shane, stop! I can't take it anymore!"
Jack's loud voice caught him off guard. The sight of him sitting there in rocking back and forth in his chair, made Shane's mouth hang open, and his voice came to a stop, as did his pacing.
"I'm sorry Jack," Shane said weakly, as he ran his hands through his hair, trying to tame the wave of guilt that rode through his body.
Unable to skirt the topic he knew that Jack was most desperate to hear about, he forced himself to bring it up. Seeing Jack in this strange state was unsettling and Shane felt a sudden sense of obligation to give Jack whatever it is he needed and whatever it is he wanted.
"Jack, do you want to call home?"
Those words sent Jack deeper in thought. His mind began to waiver with thoughts of the unknown.
"Home?" Jack said questioningly, the word almost seemed foreign to him.
"Yes, home....that's what I said." Shane replied looking for more of a response from Jack.
With his eyes still closed, he shook his head and simply said, "no."
Jacked wasn't quite ready to do that. Truth be told, Jack was petrified to call home.
'Home,' that was a strange thought in its self. Jack really didn't even know where home was. He had been gone an awfully long time. Jack thought of Jennifer and wondered if she was still in London, but sitting here with Shane, something in his gut told him that she wasn't.
The silence in the room was eerie; it reminded Jack of being in the cave.
Shane managed to drag his feet back towards his desk and sat stiffly across from Jack again. It pained him to see a man he once knew, cocky and confident, now unsure of himself and exhibiting signs of a mental breakdown. Jack's eyes were cold. He seemed to physically be there, but mentally void.
Shane felt responsible for Jack's condition and he thought that perhaps he should arrange for a doctor to come and check Jack out. Shane didn't want to pressure Jack, so he sat and waited patiently for him to talk. After several minuties, he could see the glaze over Jack's eyes wear away.Jack's mind finally started to work again. He wasn't sure what he really wanted, but he did need answers to some pertinent questions that had crossed his mind.
"Tell me about my family," Jack blurted out.
Shane swallowed hard, he knew his time was up, and the truth needed to be told.
"Jack, I'm not sure what exactly you want me to say."
"Do they know?" Jack asked.
"No what, exactly?"
"Don't play games with me!"
It was the first time Jack had raised his voice in over a year. His patience had come to an end.
Jack thought it was odd that he'd been finally rescued, and no one from his family was here to greet him.
"Did they come looking for me?"
Shane's blood presses was on the rise, he could feel the redness on his face. His stomach knotted at having to tell the truth, which was partly a lie. He was fearful at what Jack's reaction would be and he braced himself, placing his hands on the edge of the desk.
Leaning forward he spoke in almost a whisper, "Jack, they didn't even know you were missing."
Those words put a knife straight through his heart. He couldn't believe what he just heard. His ming was a sea of emotions and thoughts. How long had it been? A year was an awfully long time to be way from home. How could they not worry about him? Jack wanted to run and hide from the hurt that cursed through his body, but where could he go? He was trapped in a whole new reality that had nothing to do with living in a cave.
"What do you mean?" Jack choked out, his voice sounding a little raspy.
Shane said nothing. He felt like a coward, unable to tell him the truth.
Breathing hard, Jack could feel his heart pounding in his chest, he had to know more.
They didn't know I was missing? I've been gone for almost a year!"
Jack's voiced cracked over each word as he spoke. His heart began to fall, as his brain slowly repeated each of those words in his head.
"Jack, everyone believed your cockamamie Australian Outback walk-a-bout story."
Jack was completely deflated, his hopes snuffed out in an instant. Shrugging his shoulders, he loosened his tie and got up to pace the room.
"I know that it's not what you wanted to hear, but it's the truth. Nobody bothered to look for you. Somehow, someway, they believed that you left them."
Shane cleared his throat. He felt uneasiness in his stomach, and his nerves begin to rise again.....
"Jack….they believed your story and I was not allowed to tell them the truth."
Shane wanted to tell him about the Imposter, but knew that wasn't an option at this point.
Tears came to his eyes. Jack could not believe what he was hearing. A sweat broke out on his brow and moisture grew under his nose. Trying to keep his emotions in check, Jack shoved all those thoughts aside and focused on what lay ahead.
Shane continued with the truth of the things he knew. He didn't dare divulge any information about the death threats that 'Imposter Jack' had made over him and his family. Jack was not to find out about the seriousness of the situation and Shane hoped that Jack would not ask any more questions. He silently prayed that Steve would nab the 'Imposter' soon, so they could all just put this nightmare behind them.
Jack had been through enough and anymore lies would just be criminal. Shane also knew that the truth could deadly. Thinking about having to hold Jack in a safe house, would be cruel for a man that had just been released from captivity after living in a hole in the ground, for over a year. It was something he promised Steve, he would not do, so he struck those thought from his mind and continued, swiftly changing the direction of the conversation.
"Alice passed away five or six days after you left to join the ISA team in Afghanistan."
Jack got on his feet and started to pace. He fidgeting with his loosened tie and momentarily stopped to briefly look at Shane, who refused to meet his eyes. Jack could see that Shane was visibly upset, making their conversation a bit awkward.
Jack's imprisonment and absence from his family's lives was now settling in and he was now forced to deal with the real hard truths of his actions, whether he was prepared to or not.
Alice had died and he was gone. Worry crossed his mind about what Jennifer had gone through without him. He had left her.... he had left them... and that reality of his selfish ignorance, began to surface in his conscience for the very first time since he left London.
'Alice' he softy said her name, closing his eyes, thinking about Jennifer being alone and him not being there for her, as he promised he would. Those thoughts crushed his already aching heart.
Shane didn't have much more to tell Jack. Seeing how upset he was, it was a good thing that he didn't bring up 'Imposter Jack', so he settled for some other disheartening words, hoping to end their conversation.
"Perhaps they chose to believe that you were suffering what is commonly known, as a midlife crisis. Your family thought that you abandoned them and now you will have the opportunity to tell them the truth."
Jack sat in disbelief. Shane's words were too hard to comprehend. Closing his eyes, he felt uncontrollable tears come to the surface and he almost wished he was back in the cave.
Shane had wanted to be honest with Jack. He was tired of the lies that surrounded Jack's disappearance and deep inside he felt sympathetic, but his hands were tied. Shane sincerely hoped that someday soon Jennifer would be able to tell him the truth. For now, things were to remain status quo.
Jack's heart was pained so deeply by the thought that everyone he loved had given up on him, he crumbled, mentally and physically. His legs suddenly gave way and he fell to the floor.
Shane watched helpless, as Jack swayed back and forth, until he heard a loud thump on the floor.
"Jack! Jack! Are you okay?"
Shane grew a little nervous, seeing how affected Jack was at hearing the unforgiving truth.
The look on Jack's face was frightening. And there it was again, a blank stare on his face. Jack was rocking himself back and forth, and there was nothing Shane could do for him, but wait for it to pass.
Shane watched as Jack eventually motioned that he was okay.
"I just need some time, please just leave me alone."
Slightly embarrassed for Jack, but more ashamed of himself, Shane got up to leave.
"I'll be back in a few minutes. I am just going to step out and get us a couple of coffees."
Jack nodded his reply.
"Take some time and think about where you'd like to go Jack, it's time to go home."
Jack stayed sitting on the floor, as if the air had been knocked out of his lungs.
'Why on earth did she ever think or believe that I could or would ever leave them?' he asked himself.
Jack knew his past track record wasn't very good, as had done left her many times before. He had gone back on his word. He had sworn that he would never leave her to them again. But he did. In Jack's mind, she shouldn't have believed him, she should have believed in him. It pained him to think that Jennifer had lost faith in him. He had let her down again. That was something he couldn't deny. Running off to the Australian Outback was a lie, but she should have known him better than that. Jack hated the outdoors and she knew that. Jack couldn't bother to try and figure her reasons for any of this, so he figured it best to leave these upsetting thoughts alone until he could see her in person, face to face, and together they could talk about it.
Adjusting himself comfortably on the floor, with his back now leaning against the desk, Jack started to feel better. He began to reminisce about London. London had been good for them. They were in a safe and happy place in their life, in their marriage and their relationship. Jack was content as the editor of the Telegraph and she was enjoying in her job as city editor and assistant society editor. The children kept them busy and together they had befriended a few couples. Jack thought she was happy just to be with him, but deep down he knew, that she missed home; she missed her friends and her family.
Considering everything they had been through in recent years; Jack's kidnapping, the Island of New Salem, JJ's birth, his entrapment in the castle, his escape, Frankie, his accident, his illness Steve's return, and finally their reunion. Everything seemed right for them. They were on a fresh start, spending time together to heal as a family, after spending so many months apart. London seemed perfect. In Jack's opinion, their agreement to both take jobs at the London Telegraph was the best decision they had made in a long time. Shane was glad to be out the room, the air in there was getting tense. He felt bad leaving Jack in a chaotic state. There was nothing he could do for him. Shane was hopeful that time could heal the wounds of the truth and scars of the past, but he was certain, that it would not be any time soon. Seeing Jack lost in thought and forced to deal with the harsh realities of the present, could not be easy. Shane could see that Jack needed some time to wrap his head around all the information that was being thrown at him, so he gave him some time alone, which seemed like the only logical thing to do.
When Shane re-entered the room, Jack was still sitting on the floor, frozen in a daze, staring at the blank wall in front of him.
Jack mentally struggled to come back to reality. He swallowed hard, as his emotions were about to escape again. It didn't matter to him if Shane saw him crying, there was absolutely no point in to trying and be macho. Shane had already witness his weakness and he could see that he was in a state of terrible shock.
The noise of the door closing behind him, startled Jack, and he came to.
Shane set the coffees on the desk, and offered Jack a hand to help lift him off the floor.
Jack accepted, and returned to his feet. He straightened out his suit and tie as if nothing had happened, and went back to sit in his chair.
Shane handed him a coffee and he graciously accepted it with silent thanks.
Jack sipped his coffee a little bit too quickly and burnt his tongue.
"Ouch, the damn thing is hot!" Jack shouted as he wiped a few drips from his chin.
Shane half smiled, he knew it wasn't funny, but it was the first real sense of Jack he'd seen, since he saw Jack get off the plane in Landstuhl.
Shane wanted to say something, but was tongue tied. After a few moments of awkward staring, Jack finally spoke.
"I'm ready to go home."
More silence passed between.
"I want to go home," Jack repeated, sidelining his dark blue eyes back to the statue on the bookshelf, as his words were barely audible, mumbling them under his breath. He refused to make eye contact with the man sitting across from him.
Shane knew that he'd run out of time and out of options. There was not easy way to keep a man, especially this man, away from his family.
"Where is home, Jack?"
Shane's words pierced his ears and Jack's eyes squinted in response, as he tried to process the question.
'Home?' Jack thought.
"Where is home?" Shane asked again.
Jack was unsure where that was. He was confused again.
Unable to hold back his emotions, Jack got visibly upset thinking that his family had forgotten about him. It pained him to believe that they thought that he'd left them again. Jack's mind turned numb for a second time.
It sounded like Shane was yelling at him, and he was. His hearing was on mute as the words. Shane's words were almost inaudible.
For a third and fourth time Shane yelled, "Jack where will you be going?"
He desperately tried to shake Jack out of his funk and after a few minutes for it to register in his brain, Jack had made his decision. Drawing in a deep breath and then exhaling loudly, he said, "Salem! I want to go home to Salem!"
Shane was not surprised by his response. He had seen the confusion on Jack's face and understood that he was trying to process the plethora of information. It had been a long year and Shane himself had gone undercover in the months afterward, trying to locate and save the captured agents and Jack of course. Having been forbidden to send word home to his family or Jack's, about what had happened, Shane's guilt was getting the best of him. For the others it was now over, but for Jack and his family, it was beginning all over again.
Shane was sworn to keep the truth from Jack. He couldn't see any way around it. Shane hoped that Steve's special task force would soon capture the bastard that had Jack's life on a string and was ready, taunting them, as if he could end it on a moment's notice if he wanted to. Shane forced those thoughts out of his mind. Jack was going to be okay he tried to convince himself.
"If that's what you want Jack....I can surely have that arranged."
Jack kept his eyes low and his voice even lower, "Yes, that is what I want."
For Jack this was a problem, he was a civilian. he was not an ISA agent and his family was not used to him leaving or going on undercover assignments. He thought of Kayla and Steve and knew that Kayla would have been use to this, but not her. Jack had made up the Australian Walkabout as his cover, not that he ever expected her to believe it, at least not for this long. In his heart, he knew that he had lied to keep his family safe and that it was a huge stipulation in accepting the job in the first place. Jack could never have told her the truth. She would never have let him go and rightfully so. Jack knew he would be haunted by this decision forever. He hated himself for ever getting involved with the ISA and now he started to resent Shane for showing up in his office, on that late August summer day.
Jack never considered that his decision to get involved in an undercover operation with the ISA would ultimately end up being the greatest mistake of his life. If he knew then, what he knows now, how much one, stupid, selfish, lie, would change his life forever, he definitely would have never gone along with the opportunity he was presented with. A whole year of his life had passed him by and now Jack was forced to face the consequences of his decision.
Jack life had technically remained the same, while those he loved had been forced to live a life without him.This is the end of Part 1

Easy and Light Artichoke Stuffed Chicken
Be the first to review
READY IN: 55mins
Recipe by Drazen
This recipe calls for lighter ingredients so it is not very heavy. It has the taste of a baked artichoke wrapped in lightly breaded chicken. I was trying to emulate the way the I like to eat my artichokes....breaded, covered with mozzarella cheese and dipped in butter. My family really enjoyed this one, hope you do too!
See Discussion:
Ingredients Nutrition
- 6 artichoke hearts, from a can, chopped
- 6 ounces light cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon butter (I prefer smart balance)

- breadcrumbs, for lightly coating the chicken
- 1 cup part-skim mozzarella cheese
Directions See How It's Made
- Preheat oven to 375 degress.
- In a bowl, mix the artichoke hearts, cream cheese, butter and salt together and put aside.
- Flatten out each breast by laying it on a cutting board, covering it with wax paper and using the flat, broad side of a meat tenderizer (or whatever is handy) gently pound the chicken on the side of the chicken where the skin is stronger (tighter looking).
- After the breast is flattened, lightly coat it in the bread crumbs.
- After the breast is coated, spread about 1/6 of the artichoke mixture on top of the breast.
- Roll the breast over the mixture and secure it with a toothpick.
- Repeat for the remaining breasts and put them all in a baking dish and cover it with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 30 minutes covered,.
- Uncover and bake f5 minutes longer.
- Remove chicken from the oven and sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over each chicken breast.

Circle Game will be out to add to trainer Matthew Dale's success in Sydney's Highway Handicaps when the races restricted to country NSW and ACT-trained horses return at Randwick.
Lightly raced filly Circle Game, who Dale describes as a work in progress, is equal $5 favourite in Saturday's 1200m event and could become the trainer's fifth winner of a Highway Handicap since they were introduced in October.
The most recent was run in late February before the races took a back seat during the bulk of the autumn carnival.
"They are back on every Saturday pretty much now which is good," Canberra-based Dale said.
"It's a good initiative."
Circle Game raced three times in her first campaign for a Moruya placing, a Canberra maiden win and a midfield finish in a three-year-old fillies' race at Caulfield won by Alaskan Rose.
"She's still a work in progress and is quite a raw filly," Dale said.
He said the daughter of Snitzel had done the work for her first-up assignment having had two unofficial jump-outs on her home track.
"Having only had the three starts I think whatever she does tomorrow she'll improve on, not in fitness but in experience," he said.
"She's got a bit of quality about her but she is still learning her race craft."

ATHENS, Ga. No one who packed the humble cinderblock community theater Friday could forget the real-life tragedy that unfolded there a few months ago, the shooting spree that claimed three of the troupe's members.
But the sold-out performance, the first since the members were gunned down, was not about the "elephant in the room," as several members referred to the April 25 shooting.
Instead, it was about healing. And, above all, the performance of Neil Simon's comedy "Fools" was about having fun.
"It's cathartic," said Drew Doss, who stepped in to direct the show after the previous director's husband was gunned down. "It's obviously been difficult. But this is something we needed to do to move forward."
The community troupe was finishing one play's run and preparing to start rehearsals for "Fools" on April 25 when former University of Georgia marketing professor George Zinkhan opened fire on his wife, Marie Bruce, an Augusta native, and others gathered around the benches outside the Athens Community Theater during a reunion.
The gunfire claimed three beloved members of the Town & Gown Players: Bruce, the group's president and a gifted actor and director; Tom Tanner, a brainy performer; and Ben Teague, a master set designer who kept his own blog on the technical aspects of the theater.
The killings ended the run of "Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure," which featured Tanner as John Watson.
The group had already cast the performers for "Fools," a comedy about a town cursed with stupidity. Though none of those killed were to act in the play, Teague's wife stepped down as its director.
The troupe members took a few weeks off to mourn before returning to their routine schedule: About six weeks of weeknight rehearsals of three or four hours each, and weekends full of building sets. Their hard work paid off with a crisp performance that earned them laugh after laugh and a heartfelt standing ovation.
Authorities say Zinkhan first targeted Tanner, a 40-year-old Clemson University economist his wife may have been seeing. Then he turned the gun on his 47-year-old wife, who was an attorney. The third victim, 63-year-old Teague, was apparently in the wrong place at the wrong time, police say.
Just as quickly, Zinkhan was gone. Bulletins were issued nationwide and authorities watched airports in case he tried to flee to Amsterdam, where he had taught part-time at a university.
Police soon found Zinkhan's wrecked Jeep in a ravine in on the outskirts of Athens. Two weeks after the shootings, they found the 57-year-old's body hidden in a shallow grave he dug before shooting himself in the head.
For many of the troupe members, retaking the stage was the best way they knew to honor their friends.
"This was a big part of their lives and they would want us to move on," said Florence King, a member of the troupe for 22 years. "We can't let it take over."
Eric Wagoner, the troupe's new president, said the performance helped them "reclaim" the theater and begin to heal.
"For me, it's a marker to put the events behind me and look to the future," said Wagoner. "I'll carry Ben, Marie and Tom with me. But I'm also happy that George could not destroy what Ben, Marie and Tom worked so hard to build."
Doss, the director, acknowledged the "trying times" before the play. And then he quickly issued a plea urging talented actors to join the troupe.
After all, casting for the next play begins Monday.

Mitsubish Lancer Evolution – 2008 First Drive: Since 1992, Lancer Evolutions have withstood the rigors of rally racing, the joys and punishment inflicted by legions of fans, and most recently, the rigors of the American market, where the Evolution VIII and IX did battle with the Subaru WRX STi for the past several years.
Yet owners of Evos had to pay the piper, and we don't mean the monthly checks to the bank. No, this car took its pound of flesh in the form of tinnitus and bruised kidneys for those who dared to drive it every day, because on the street the Evo never let you forget that it wanted to be on the track. This was a car made for hard driving, not for prancing to and from work. Oh, sure, it was capable of commuting, but when subjected to daily duties it punished its driver with a harsh, pounding suspension, an engine that constantly hollered at you, and steering so quick and nervous that simple freeway lane changes induced cold sweats.
So now we have the newest Evolution, based on the newest Lancer, which itself is a world platform intended for multiple vehicles and markets. The newest Evolution brings to the table a host of new technologies that enhance the driving experience, numerous feature upgrades, a lot more safety equipment, more power and torque, a significant weight gain, and something that the Evo has lacked until now: Civility. Yet this newfound capability and comfort comes at a price, with the "base" Evolution GSR starting somewhere around $34,000, and the MR starting around $39,000. Will people be willing to fork over that much for what is in many respects just a really fast Lancer? That kind of punishment may be too much for some.
Lancers have been rallying long before they were called Evos, starting in 1982 with that year's rear-drive model. Mitsubishi has remained a force in rallying ever since, even though it hasn't fielded a factory team in years, and if you're going to hit the dirt, snow, mud, rocks, rain, sleet and occasional stray goats encountered on a rally circuit, an Evo – any Evo – has been a good place to start.
The street version of the Lancer Evolution was initially developed to meet homologation requirements for the World Rally Championship. That is, in order to participate in the series, Mitsubishi had to actually build all-wheel drive turbocharged versions of its economy car and sell them to whoever wanted one. The popularity of the street version outlived the company's rally ambitions, and today the Lancer Evolution is a model lineup unto itself.
Let's hear it for homologation rules!

Holding a big black umbrella, Burris approached a Washington, D.C. intersection as people started yelling, "Its a red light, "then, "red light! red light!" Two large men put their hands on Burris' shoulders, who bent down and puffed up his cheeks in relief. No one seemed more comforted over his good fortune than Burris. "I am just playing," he said with a relieved smile before a car screeched by and honked its horn.
Burris was accompanied by about five handlers who found the wet, 71-year-old politician an umbrella, blocked questions from eager journalists and occasionally shouted, "curb, curb."
Watch It Happen:
In church on Sunday, Burris said he believes his appointment to the US Senate was "ordained by God." A omniscient deity or some careful handlers, someone was looking out for him this morning.

Ok so I've been talking to this girl for two weeks and we both really like each other and text all the time. She has been texting me in the morning right when she wakes up for the past week, but recently within the past couple days she's been acting weird. She seemed to take longer to get back to me yesterday. About 45 minutes to an hour between texts. This morning she didn't text good morning and I sent her a message anyways. Five hours later she replies. I decide not to even acknowledge this and ignore the text and now she texts me again just saying my name trying to get my attention. You think I should keep ignoring her for a day or two?

Based on the famous novel by Alexander Dumas, this tells of the wicked King Louis the XIV who keeps his identical twin hidden in an iron mask, deep within a dungeon, out of harms way. When the fabled three musketeers learn of the plot, they unite with soo
James Whale lends his taste for the flamboyant, fed by his string of horror hits, to the classic tale of shadowy identities, royal wrong-doing and the correctional uses of the pointy end of a rapier with some aplomb. It's lavish, full of deep shadows and sweeping camerawork, playing the extravagances of Alexander Dumas' storytelling for all they are worth. There's no doubting the melodrama, or the thinness of its psychology, but it is bold and stirringly old-fashioned.
The pleasure of these musketeer fables is the intricacy of their plotting. Having one twin as a cruel king, and his brother as a potentially just one sets up a fairy-tale framework for the thriller to follow. Louis Hayward convincingly etches out the contrasting brethren, the manipulator on one side who eventually has his secret looky-likey stored in the basement of the Bastille with iron headgear to save any confusion. The swashbuckling trio of musketeers (always hearty and heroic), and hero D'Artagnan, are the only ones who knew of this double-trouble, having raised the good twin, and set about switching them the other way for the sake of France.
It rolls along with gusto and general silliness, never touching the heights of the Errol Flynn rousers, but thanks to its stylish director a natty stridency all its own, making it probably the best adaptation of the book there has been.
Buckles will be swashed in this Musketeer romp, all good fun.
