Memoirs of a French Village: a chronicle of old Prairie du Rocher, 1722-1972
In summarizing or evaluating the history of Prairie du Rocher, one must note the impact that historical events and influences have made on present day, Prairie du Rocher. The community is today, as it was in the 1700′ s, basically an agricultural community. The farmers no longer live in the village, but they remain the basic economic factor in the village. The farm lands which surround Prairie du Rocher, are among the most fertile and bountiful soils in the world. The limestone bluffs, from which the French obtained stone for the construction of Fort Chartres, today provide livelihood for many of the villagers. The cemetery in which the inhabitants bury their dead in 1972 is the same one in which their ancestors buried their loved ones as early as 1722. The rock bluffs and the wide Mississippi River isolate the community from the outside world today, as they did in the early years. The mosquitoes remain as numerous and voracious as they were in 1839; and the damp, wet, unbearable, and unhealthy conditions return during the wet months. The population today is approximately 750, a gain of only 250 since 1859, over a hundred years ago. The old, distinctly French names such as Barbeau, Bievenue, Langlois, Louviere, De Rousse, and Duclos, still appear on the village registers, but the influence of the French is not limited to the inheritance of names. Over 90% of the residents today, belong to the Roman Catholic Church. The Church remains the center of the community. The majority of the villagers today, are complacent, contented, unambitious, good-natured, and happy – traits directly traceable to their ancestors. Most of the villagers remain to an amazing degree, as Montague described it, "free from that strife, contention, and turmoil, which attends the pursuit of wealth and political preferment." In order to observe this living historical heritage, one need only attend the annual church picnic, rendezvous, or witness the group of villagers dressed in 18th century costumes, on New Year's Eve, who move from house to house proclaiming the end of another year, in the old familiar words of the La Gui-annee.

Indian Captivity Narratives
This collection contains entire narratives of Indian captivity; that is to say, we have provided the reader the originals without the slightest abridgement. Some of these captivities provide little in way of customs and manners, except to display examples of the clandestine warfare Native Americans used to accomplish their means. In almost every case, there was a tug of war going on between principle government powers, French, American, British, and Spanish, and these powers used the natural prowess of the Indians to assist them in causing warfare upon American and Canadian settlers. There were definitely thousands of captivities, likely tens of thousands, as the active period of these Indian captivity narratives covers 150 years. Unfortunately, few have ever been put under a pen by the original captive, and as such, we have little first-hand details on their captivity. These you will find here, are only those with which were written by the captive or narrated to another who could write for them; you shall find in a later collection, a database of known captives, by name, location, and dates, and a narrative about their captivity along with factual sources. But that is for another time.
History of the Indian Wars
Our relations with the aboriginal inhabitants of this continent form a distinct and very important, and interesting portion of the history of this Republic. It is unfortunately, for the most part, a history of bloody wars, in which the border settlers have suffered all the horrors of savage aggression, and, in which portions of our colonial settlements have sometimes been completely cut off and destroyed. Other portions of this thrilling history, evince the courage, daring, and patience of the settlers, in a very favorable point of view, and exhibit them as triumphing over every difficulty, and finally obtaining a firm foothold on the soil. In all its parts, this history will always possess numerous points of peculiar interest for the American reader.

The Migration of Voyageurs from Drummond Island to Penetanguishene in 1828
The story of the transfer of the British garrison from Drummond Island to Penetanguishene in 1828 and the migration of voyageurs connected with the post has never been told in print. In the following notes Mr. Osborne has endeavored to gather this story from the lips of the few survivors who migrated at that time. Descendants of French-Canadians largely predominated in this movement, but we also get glimpses of what a strange and heterogeneous people once gathered around Mackinaw and Drummond Island, especially about the time of the coalition of the two fur companies in 1821. The migrant voyageurs settled principally near Penetanguishene, in the township of Tiny, Simcoe County. Offshoots of the band settled at Old Fort Ste. Marie, at Fesserton and Coldwater, and another south of Lake Simcoe, near Pefferlaw, York County. These notes will form a useful supplement to Joseph Taase's "Les Canadiens de l'Ouest."

History Gazetteer and Directory of Devonshire 1850
The History, Gazetteer and Directory of Devonshire 1850 provides a historical look at the county of Devonshire prior to 1850. Devonshire, the largest county in England, except Yorkshire, and the most westerly except Cornwall, ranked among the first in agricultural importance, and the sixth in amount of population. Occupying the whole breadth of the central portion of that great south-western peninsula of the British Island, which juts out between the Bristol and English Channels, and having more than 150 miles of sea coast, and some fine navigable rivers and broad estuaries, Devonshire was one of the most important maritime counties in the kingdom.
Histories of Illinois Civil War Regiments and Units

(The ninth volume lists units of the Black Hawk, Mexican and Spanish-American Wars as well as the War of 1812.) The histories, some written shortly after the war's end, are the work of numerous authors throughout the intervening years. The 1886 version of the Adjutant General's Report included regimental histories compiled by that office which had not previously been published. The final 1900-1902 republication of the report incorporated revisions and corrections to the histories.

Bender Ancestors
The bulk of the Bender family in this country has come to be identified with that group of early Americans known as the "Pennsylvania Dutch". The early English settlers coined this term and although they really meant to say "Deutsch", meaning German, the word soon became corrupted into "Dutch". They applied this name to those German, Swiss and even French Huguenots who had arrived here in the 1700's and settled first in that small area roughly defined as south-central and eastern Pennsylvania.
Richard Dexter Genealogy, 1642-1904
Being a history of the descendants of Richard Dexter of Malden, Massachusetts, from the notes of John Haven Dexter and original researches. Richard Dexter, who was admitted an inhabitant of Boston (New England), Feb. 28, 1642, came from within ten miles of the town of Slane, Co. Meath, Ireland, and belonged to a branch of that family of Dexter who were descendants of Richard de Excester, the Lord Justice of Ireland. He, with his wife Bridget, and three or more children, fled to England from the great Irish Massacre of the Protestants which commenced Oct. 27, 1641. When Richard Dexter and family left England and by what vessel, we are unable to state, but he could not have remained there long, as we know he was living at Boston prior to Feb. 28, 1642.

William Friedkin's superb film Sorcerer (1977) has finally been released on Blu-ray.
As Jason Guerrasio notes in the April 21, 2014 issue of Vanity Fair, "In 1977, there was no director hotter in Hollywood than William Friedkin. His last two films, The French Connection and The Exorcist, were instant classics and now he was about to release what he considered his masterwork, Sorcerer. What he didn't foresee, however, was that a modestly budgeted science-fiction epic called Star Wars would destroy his beloved film and change the Hollywood landscape forever.
A reimagining of Henri-Georges Clouzot's classic The Wages of Fear, Sorcerer stars Roy Scheider as one of four outcasts who take on a lucrative but dangerous job of transporting unstable dynamite through a South American jungle in dingy trucks. Though the film boasts solid acting and a thrilling sequence where the trucks must cross an ancient bridge—not to mention an incredible score from Tangerine Dream—production on the film was marred in delays and on-set conflict.
Things didn't get any better when Paramount released the film a month after Star Wars, quickly becoming a casualty of the craze over George Lucas's intergalactic opera. Outside of the occasional repertory screening over the decades, Sorcerer was forgotten. Then in 2012, Friedkin sued both Paramount and Universal (which had international rights) to find who owned the film. Through that, Warner Bros. bought it and on Tuesday will release a remastered Blu-ray of the film; a select theatrical release is planned as well."
[As Friedkin told Guerrasio] "I'd say 80 percent of American films today are all offshoots of Star Wars. If Star Wars had failed you would not have the kind of films that are popular today. Hollywood has given over completely to the comic-book and video-game heroes, and rightly so because they are successful, the audience wants them. But that hunger, that desire, was tapped by Star Wars. None of us could see the tsunami of Star Wars. It happened rather quickly. You know, virtually every studio passed on Star Wars. I had a company with Coppola and [Peter] Bogdanovich then called the Directors Company, it was financed by Paramount and we had the right to green-light any films we wanted, outside of our own, at a certain budget.
Francis brought us the script of Star Wars and Peter and I looked at it and said, 'What the hell is this? Who's going to direct this?' And he said, 'George.' And I said, 'I don't think so.' I couldn't believe George could pull it off, and I was wrong. I think fate plays the most significant part in all of our lives and that's what happened. For a long period there I enjoyed nothing but success: critical and commercial. All I was interested in then and now is how close I could come to my vision of the film I wanted to make. In those days, we had no idea what kind of money films made, until Star Wars. It wasn't in the papers every day. The quality of the film is all I cared about. Of course, you're disappointed, but I never guided my life by any of that."
It's a remarkable and all but forgotten film; check out the Blu-ray now.

Colts win 27-13
Smothered Chicken!
Some thoughts leading up to this game:
- Fleener hasn't gotten much talk this week, but surprise surprise --- new guy had 6 catches for 82 yards quietly. It was a surprisingly good first showing, especially against a good Bears' secondary.
- What happened to Dwayne Allen? Did they put him in blocking situations exclusively? Zero catches.
- Vinatieri... If I were Luck, I'd have to believe I have some sort of kicker curse. In Luck's last 2 meaningful games (the Colts' season opener, and the Stanford-OklaSt Fiesta Bowl), he's been absolutely killed by his kickers after repeated successful 2-min drives into enemy territory for very manageable FGs and his kickers just absolutely lay an egg. I like Mr. Clutch, but if the 39 year old makes a habit of this, I think it's time we explore a serious kicker solution this off-season. Those FGs can turn the tide of a close game, and that FG miss was a big momentum killer.
- I wonder why Brazill is getting most reps at returner and nothing for Hilton? Seems like was the case all pre-season. I could be wrong on that, but after watching Hilton's college antics, you'd think he'd be by far the most dangerous returner on this team. If Hilton dresses for this game, I hope we see him back there fielding kicks.
- Sounds like O-line was a focal point this week in practice, which you'd expect.
- Sounds like Freeney and Collie are, indeed, both out of this game. Collie was expected to play earlier in the week and suffered a setback, evidently. That is killing us... this offense does a lot better when he's in.
- We need Angerer back, too...
- Colts didn't do half bad stopping the run against the Bears, and Forte/Bush are no joke. Cutler/Marshall lit us up, though, and then go and lay an egg in Green Bay. Speaking of which, Green Bay's defense really showed up last night, think that was more of an indicator of the game than Chicago's failures, although CHI didn't execute like they did against us. But striking to me was the defensive execution of GB...
- Looks like Winston Justice is back in, after a quick recovery, so Essex will likely fill in for Seth Olsen on the O-line, which is a GOOD thing...
I'm hopeful for this week. I still think we're missing a few key guys... Freeney, Angerer, Collie... but being at home and against some weaker competition, this should be a competitive game, one that could go either way. Hopefully with Indy winning. After watching Indy mosty hold Forte/Bush in check in Week 1, one would think they could maybe do the same to a not-100% Adrian Peterson, but we all know how that goes. Cutler and Marshall were sposed to cut up a suspect GB secondary, and the exact opposite occurred.
Things I'll be looking for is the continued growth of Luck and Fleener, some catches for Dwayne Allen, some semblance of improvement from the O-line and our cornerbacks, esepcially Vontae, and the rest of the units to perform as they did in Week 1. If that happens we could be seeing our first win this season.
There are two types of quarterbacks in the league: Those whom over time, the league figures out ... and those who figure out the league.
I expect the Colts to play a lot better but the Vikings will squeak out a win
Vikings 24-21
Our first win will be against Jacksonville which is ironic since we needed to lose to Jacksonville last year to get Andrew Luck to begin with.
Colts 21
Vikings- 17
Gonna be a loooooooooooooooooong year if we lose this one i can see no more than 4 wins imo
Counting down the days untill DJ Augustin's contract expires.
If Hilton plays, we need him at WR fulltime, no sense of putting him at KR/PR unless he's close to 100%...

Edit Signature
I just hope that Jared Allen doesn't kill Luck tomorrow. What is the over/under for how many times he sacks him?
Tomorrow will be a great gauge for how good our team is. If we are a decent team, then we should compete in this game and have a chance at winning it. But as Hyp said, if we get beat badly tomorrow then this team probably isn't that good and will be winning in the neighborhood of 4 or so games. I think we will know quite a bit about our team after tomorrow.

Inactives: Harnish, Collie, Carter, Angerer, Justice, Reitz, Freeney
Know this sounds hyperbolic but today may well be must win in terms of keeping sectors of fan base involved
I'd rather die standing up than live on my knees.
-Emiliano Zapata
Luck's arm looked pretty good on that drive lol
I'm glad Luck is mobile he's going to need it with our O-Line.
Minnesota should basically never pass... They're consistently getting 5 yards per carry.
Honestly with all the changes this team has made...we still have the same issues. Stopping the run, defense in general, etc. The more things change the more they stay the same.
Stop trying the run game when its clearly not working.
also Donnie is having a hell of a game
Counting down the days untill DJ Augustin's contract expires.
I didn't catch the touchdown drive, but Luck is still overthrowing receivers, throwing behind them, etc. I suspect by week 7 or 8 he should have adjusted to the speed of the NFL game and settle down a bit.
Oh crap, is Trai Essex the new center?
Counting down the days untill DJ Augustin's contract expires.
Counting down the days untill DJ Augustin's contract expires.
Touchdown!!! Nice throw and catch. Reggie Wayne is a beast.
I think Luck is throwing SLIGHTLY behind the receivers. But we are spoiled, we had the best QB of all time. At least Luck is managing the game better than last week. And he is not throwing picks yet.
Donnie Avery's having a helluva game. O-line's played markedly better than last week (still not playing good though). They can't run block for crap. But it'll take time, Rome wasn't built in a day.

The arthroscopic anterior cruciate (ACL) ligament reconstruction surgery is widespread. The creation of the tibial tunnel, retrograde or antegrade, is not consensual. A cadaveric study demonstrated tibial subchondral microfractures in the group "antegrade tibial tunnel" unlike group "retrograde tibial tunnel." To our knowledge, no clinical evaluation was performed. The investigators hypothesize that retrograde drilling will cause less local bone injury than antegrade drilling in creation of the tibial tunnel for ACL reconstruction.

Missed chances doom Rox in 12-inning loss
Chacin fans nine in solid start, but Colorado strands 15 on base
HOUSTON -- Extra innings or otherwise, the Rockies couldn't take the extra 90 feet.
Colorado left 15 men on base, including nine in scoring position and five at third base, and the Astros got a walk-off ground-rule double by Brandon Barnes in the 12th inning for a 3-2 win over the Rockies on Monday afternoon at Minute Maid Park.
With their third straight loss, the Rockies dropped to 11-15 on the road this season and 3-5 in extra-inning games.
Starter Jhoulys Chacin largely cruised through seven innings and one batter of the eighth -- surrendering only a two-run double to Astros first baseman Carlos Pena in the fourth -- while striking out nine, the most by a Rockies pitcher this season.
"I feel pretty good about the performance. I feel like I could have gone longer, but it's not my decision," said Chacin, who only threw 82 pitches. "It's not about if I got the win or not, it's about if you get the win as a team. That's a tough loss."
The bullpen followed Chacin with four shutout innings until the Astros ended things with some Memorial Day fireworks.
Houston third baseman Matt Dominguez led off the 12th with a single to center field and was removed for pinch-runner Ronny Cedeno, who moved to second on a sacrifice bunt. A strikeout and an intentional walk brought Barnes -- a defensive substitution in the top of the inning -- to the plate against Rockies reliever Wilton Lopez.
Four hours and 21 minutes from first pitch, Barnes sliced a looping ball down the right-field line that just eluded Michael Cuddyer's glove and hopped over the wall to score Cedeno from second. It was only Barnes' third RBI against a right-handed pitcher in 31 at-bats this season.
"We have to find a way to win a game like that, so it's frustrating," said Colorado manager Walt Weiss. "[Barnes] just hit a ball that couldn't be placed better, right inside the line. It wasn't anything wrong with Lopez. They hit a few on him, but he was throwing fine."
The first inning set the tone for the Rockies' frustrating day, as Eric Young Jr. poked a leadoff double and Carlos Gonzalez drove him in with with a double of his own. But Gonzalez was stranded on third, a harbinger of things to come for Colorado. Gonzalez led the Rockies' lineup with a 3-for-6 day. The outfielder is hitting .400 through four games of the team's road trip.
Young initiated the next threat, walking to lead off the third inning. Dexter Fowler and Gonzalez hit consecutive singles to load the bases with no outs. Three hard-hit balls followed, but each was right at an Astros fielder to keep the Rockies off the scoreboard.
"The Astros, those guys hit their spots. Still, we hit some balls hard, just right at people," said third baseman Nolan Arenado. "We couldn't capitalize like we should. That one's on us as hitters, because the pitching did its job."
When they did capitalize, it was on a minor scale. Despite only putting one man on, the Rockies extended their lead to 2-0 in the fourth on a Jonathan Herrera squeeze bunt that plated Arenado from third after his leadoff double.
Colorado put two men on base in the fifth, seventh and eighth innings, but couldn't push a run across. Colorado was just 3-for-18 with runners in scoring position and racked up 13 hits, but never more than two in an inning.
"We left way too many men on," Weiss said. "That's stating the obvious, but I don't know if you can pin it on anything specific. You take your at-bat according to the situation and try to drive runs in. I thought we made a lot of hard outs today."
Colorado also had at least one hit during each of the extra frames.
Chacin tied his longest outing of the season, mixing early strikeouts with a low pitch count to allow two runs on five hits. Weiss credited strong command and Chacin's "swing-and-a-miss slider" for the righty's efficient outing.
"The game plan was to attack the hitters," Chacin said. "The first couple of innings, I was striking them out with my sinker, but then we wanted to change it on them, so I started throwing the slider and changeup on them."
Astros starter Bud Norris turned several sharply-hit balls into outs, surviving seven innings and 11 baserunners to allow only two runs.
"Bud was absolutely fantastic today," said Astros manager Bo Porter. "Early in the game when he got into the bases-loaded jam, he really did a great job of understanding who was in the batter's box and how he was going to attack him. He kept his composure and just made quality pitch after quality pitch."
After Chacin exited following a leadoff double in the eighth, lefty reliever Rex Brothers walked outfielder Robbie Grossman before inducing Jose Altuve into a 6-4-3 double play to stunt the Houston rally.
The Rockies put two more runners on in the 10th, but Houston reliever Travis Blackley struck out DJ LeMahieu with runners on first and third. Cuddyer pinch-hit and was intentionally walked, one day after leaving the game when he was plunked in the right forearm in San Francisco.
"I was wanting to stay away from Cuddy, but he was swinging during the game and convinced me that he was OK," Weiss said. "For me, he was going to be a last resort."
Colorado is now 2-5 in Interleague Play this season.

Ducks face improved Husky defense
EUGENE, OR - In the three games in which Oregon has faced former Duck Justin Wilcox as a defensive coordinator (twice versus Boise State and once versus Tennessee), the Ducks have won just one of the three contests. That was the 2010 game in Knoxville.
Oregon will face Wilcox again this Saturday when the Huskies come to Autzen Stadium. Wilcox took over for Nick Holt as defensive coordinator earlier this year.
The Duck's high-powered offense, which ranks seventh nationally, will get tested against an improved Husky defense.
"Justin's changed the scheme from what they've been running before when Nick (Holt) was there," said Chip Kelly. "It looks like the players have a better understanding."
The Washington defense limited Stanford to just 65 yards rushing last Thursday in defeating the Cardinal.
"If they end up trying to stop the run and force me to throw, then I'll throw," said red-shirt freshman quarterback Marcus Mariota. "It really just comes down to execution as an offense. We should be okay."
The Ducks say they don't want the Husky defense to dictate the way the game is played this Saturday.
"As an offense you always want to dictate the game," said senior tailback Kenjon Barner. "You never want the defense to dictate what you want to do. You want to always control the game."
Being balanced offensively also helps against a defense which may try to take away the run.
"Some defenses say 'hey, we're going to make you throw the ball.'" said Kelly. "Then we'll throw it. I think (being balanced) helps us because if you don't have the ability to go another way and the defense takes something away from you, then you're in for a long night."
The Ducks have won eight straight against the Huskies. That is the longest win streak in the history of the rivalry by either side. Kick off Saturday is scheduled for 7:36 p.m.

Topic: Cannot believe how we've been treated
I am not sure if this is the best location on this board to post this message, but since it relates directly to my wife's first ever chemo experience, I thought this would be OK.
Horrifying week due to the Oncology team treating my wife. On Sunday, my wife was admitted to the hospital due to pain levels increasing. We had been scheduled for our first chemo treatment on Tuesday. However, when the Oncologist talked with us on Monday, we were told the bilirubin level was too high (2.9) to begin treatment. And there was nothing more they could do if this number did not get better. NO other options. We were beyond stunned. I reached out to other contacts who did not agree and I was ready for a battle. Fortunately, the number dropped by Tuesday morning and they agreed to continue with treatment on Tuesday.
On Thursday, still inpatient, the Oncologist came by and said - once again - the bilirubin level jumped to 5 and there was nothing else they could do for us. So twice in three days I find myself trying to console my wife, my two young adult children, and my wife's mother.
I reached out to the two doctors at major cancer centers where we had gotten second opinions (they had agreed with the initial Gem/Cis plan so we felt comfortable having it performed locally). They both felt there was no reason to stop treatment and offered to speak with our Oncology team.
When I suggested it to the Oncologist (even gave the business card to them), the response was "Let's wait till Monday". This was on Thursday. So we were left having to wait 4 days before they would even talk to someone willing to discuss my wife's case. And we still weren't sure if they would even do the chemo on the following day.
The end result, only because of having to push them, was we will have the next round of treatment on Tuesday.
I just can't believe how we've been treated.
Through this episode, the real positive news is my wife had minor side effects to the first round and is feeling (and looking) better every day.

When I first who was going to play Christian, I was really disappointed but when I saw the movie, I feel like it was cast correctly on both parts. Couldn't have been a better cast. Leave it alone, Please..
for me the only one was MATT BOMER, NOONE ELSE
I love books but not those books. The only interest I had in watching that movie was Charlie Hunnam. He is very sexy, tough, intriguing, something to fantasize about. Other pretty boys are just that. Dime a dozen. Boy i'd love it if he'd come back to the film. "See, just like the chick in those books, I'd take him back again.. and again.. and mmm again!
This viewer will always be disappointed in the departure of Charlie Hunnam as Christian Grey. Charlie is the "hottest" man alive, besides my husband (lucky me) and the only man close to replacing Charlie is Garrett Hedlund. Both Hunnam and Hedlund have that rough sexy side, but constantly hot!! I will go to any movie Charlie and Garrett star in. Regarding Rob P. from Twilight???? What are you thinking???? His body or looks isn't even close to the man described repeatedly throughout all three books as beautiful, rugged, handsome and completely sensual… if Rob P. is selected I will have to forgo the film entirely.
And we'll suffer for you forgetting the film :( Hahahaha! Most ridiculous comment, not to mention deluded, I have ever read.
I'm all over Alexander Skarsgaard playing this part! Even though I'm a huge ASkars fan, he would have to somehow be made to look younger for the part – he looks much older than 27. But other than that, he's got EVERYTHING needed to embody Christian Grey. One other thought, whatever happened to the possibility of Tom Hardy playing CG? That is another totally hot option. He's got the intensity, mad acting skills, and the looks. *swoon*
David Lyons!!!!!!!
I say ryan goslin is christan grey. He has the looks and the image of a man who can be weak but strong.
Why not Henry Cavill?
I do not think Robert pattinson would be a good candidate for the role of Christian Grey. I think Ian Somerhalder would be the best choice. He fits the role of Christian Grey. Just need to lighten his hair a little and there you go.
I personally would love to have Alexander Skarsgard in the role of Christian – His ENCOUNTER commercials could have been auditions!
Can believe this mommy porn getting a movie lol read Way better fanfiction online. But wateva wine quzzling suburbs moms need to make thru the day
Ian Somerhalder has all of the qualities of Mr Grey, just watch The vampire Diaries. Robert P has already dominated the Twilight saga and I personally don't want to see them mess up this movie like they did twilight. Matt Bomer is a whole other issue.
E.L. James and I were at Rob Pattinson's house when she admitted that Rob was first choice for Christian. Ian Somerhalder never in running.
He has every quality needed for this role!!
Ok, well that was definitely a convincing argument ;-) But I'm still not convinced he has the acting chops.
I think RP is the best Christian that could possibly be chosen!! He has every quality needed for this role!!She wrote the books think of him! He's sexy, dangerous,I love him!
Rob Pattinson would be the perfect Christian!I would buy this movie over and over if ROB was Christian. He is an amazing actor. And I am really interested in how he will act in this role.
Pattinson is too stupid for any film. The subjects of the books have been created on Pattinson and Stewart, therefore, every other choice that is not these two actors, is wrong.
We have an intellectual here. Sarcasm of course.
I think the problem is ppl r making the book/story out too be something so negative when it's actually a beautiful love story of coming together from two ways of life..I can't wait for the release Come on actors n actress jump on this I think it would be a good move for your careers Think Out Of The Box do something different This is It !!!
It's for me only Ryan or Askars.
There really is no other candidate, this role was made for Alexander Skarsgard. (and vice versa) I've yet to see another actor conquer the full spectrum from full on romantic emotion, to disdainful and cold.
Agreed, but only if they can live up to the books
Did you really just drag up the same names of people who have shown no interest in the part or are working on other projects?
Robert Pattinson is working so hard to get rid of the Twilight franchise's typecast and has been doing amazing and unique projects. This would be a step back for him.
Poor Robbie!!!
Not 'poor', but it's like Leo DiCaprio and Titanic. It takes a very huge effort to get over the type casting.

Brought to you by The Cisco Innovators Program
Like most businesses, a medical supply company had heard about phone systems that communicate over an Internet connection, known as VoIP (voice over IP).
The company was using a traditional phone system, and its field sales people conducted business on cell phones. The salesforce, located in regions thousands of miles apart, met at company headquarters twice a month.
Management of the 175-employee company believed VoIP could reduce its phone bills and travel expenses, but wondered if it could afford to adopt the new technology. So managers contacted several local IT providers to find out.
The company had its answer, and its new VoIP system live, within two months.
Partner Responds
One IT provider that the company contacted is a Cisco Certified Partner. Its expertise includes unified communications, video, and collaboration, as well as security, IT network, and cloud services.
The partner is not a superstore, freelancer, or order taker. Its value proposition, as a Cisco Certified Partner, is best-practices services and validated expertise.
Best Practice #1: Discovery
The partner went to the company and met with the office manager, operations manager, and IT director. "We do a lot of listening," says one of the partner's managers. "We ask questions that clarify what the customer's needs are--strategic, operational, and technical. We also walk through the facility to see the ways existing systems, phones, and other devices are being used.
"The truth is, every customer is unique--you can't recommend the best options for technology solutions without doing this type of comprehensive discovery."
Designing the Solution
At the next meeting, the partner presented a summary of its recommendations--including system and phone features and business applications--and cost considerations. The company liked what it saw.
At the third meeting, the partner's expertise was further revealed. The detailed proposal that the partner presented was within the company´s budget, and included these advantages:
- Network integration of voice, data, and video
- A range of IP phone models for all the employees' needs
- Unified messaging and presence
- Videoconferencing and conference bridging
- A single point of contact--the partner--for all these technologies
- Maintenance service that includes unlimited remote support of the system and all phone users
The partner had also evaluated the company's phone bills, and it identified ways for the company to consolidate and simplify its telecommunications with a new service provider.
The company green-lighted the proposal.
Implementing the Solution
The company and the partner then agreed on the timeline, installation details, and training agenda. The partner laid out and tested the solution in its own facility, then installed it at the company after hours, ensuring no downtime for the customer.
And the training that the partner did ensured that all employees were comfortable and productive with the new technology before it went live.
The Results: Savings Realized in the First Month
By replacing the phone system with a unified communications system and using Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) trunking and IP phones, the partner saved the customer over 30 percent on its monthly charges from the telecommunications carrier.
In addition, the partner reduced the customer's expenses for travel and cell phone use by over 40 percent monthly. With mobile IP phones and videoconferencing, the salesforce can take their phones anywhere and have real-time video meetings, rather than needing to travel to the office.
All these cost savings were immediate, and continue to recur monthly.
The Value of Expertise: Quick ROI
The depth and breadth of the partner's expertise, delivered through best practices, produced a quick ROI. Within 18 months, the company's cost savings will have fully paid for the product solutions and the partner's services.
In addition, the advanced messaging increases employees' productivity, the data/voice network unification and remote maintenance service reduce demands on the company's small IT department, and less travel time dramatically raises the productivity of the salesforce--all leading to higher company profits.
And the company can use the technology to competitive advantage for years to come.
How to Find Expertise
To achieve the types of results this company did, look for providers with a Cisco partner logo. All Cisco Certified Partners have been proven to successfully deploy, operate, and optimize Cisco solutions--and can become your trusted adviser on a variety of technologies.
Next Steps
- Find a local Cisco Certified Partner that can help you improve your company's security.

The Rangers have an ominous cloud hovering over their ballpark—will slugger Nelson Cruz get hit with a 50-game Biogenesis suspension?—but manager Ron Washington's team has provided a few magical distractions while staying in the thick of the playoff race.
They swept the rival Angels at home to open the week, on the strength of walk-off home runs in three consecutive games. Yep, three straight walk-offs. Geovany Soto delivered in the ninth inning on Monday, Leonys Martin in the 10th on Tuesday and Adrian Beltre's mammoth blast in the ninth Wednesday is still bounding toward the Louisiana border.
MORE: Nelson Cruz may not appeal suspension | MLB to dish out suspensions by Monday
On Thursday, Yu Darvish topped them all with his masterful pitching performance, striking out 14 Arizona Diamondbacks in seven shutout innings, on 111 pitches. Texas won the game, 7-1, to pull within 3.5 of the idle A's in the A.L. West; they're a half-game behind the Indians for the second wild-card berth.
The Diamondbacks aren't exactly a strikeout-happy team, either; they entered the game with the third-best strikeout percentage in the National League, at just 18.4 percent.
Darvish struck out the side in the first inning, then did so again in the second. Tuffy Gosewisch—the awesomely named Tuffy Gosewisch, who was making his MLB debut in the at-bat, at 29 years old—ended the strikeout streak by popping up for the first out in the third inning, but Gerardo Parra and Adam Eaton went down on strikes to end the frame.
Darvish struck out two more in the fourth, then two more in the fifth. Two more in the sixth—including N.L. MVP candidate Paul Goldschmidt for the third time in the game—tied his career high with 14 strikeouts. It was the fourth time this year the righthander has had at least 14.
He failed in his quest to eclipse that mark in the seventh; two outs came on fly balls and one on a pop out. Detroit's Anibal Sanchez has the season high in the majors this season with 17, set back on April 26 against Atlanta. No other pitcher has more than 14.
That Darvish put together another impressive strikeout game isn't remotely a surprise. He led the majors in strikeout percentage heading into the game, at 32.4 percent (Matt Harvey is second at 29.8 percent), and this effort gave him a major league-best 186 strikeouts in just 138 2/3 innings this season.

Linpac Packaging, a United Kingdom-based food packaging manufacturer, is extending its line of salad and vegetable bowls.
To meet consumer demand for healthier and more convenient foods, Linpac is extending its Freshware line it rolled out earlier in the year, according to a news release.
The bowls for refrigerated retail and prepared convenience foods offer supermarkets a range of options including incline display, click and connect, easy grip and inlaid portion packaging, according to the release.
In addition to its smooth-wall hinged containers, Linpac offers pyramid packs that display salads and coleslaw in lidded or tray-sealed containers that provide strong shelf appeal, according to the release.
Linpac's trademarked Vertifresh salad and snacking containers' vertical design helps draw attention of the product's contents and toppings and segregate dressings and protein options to extend life.
Its Bol Salad collection provides round bowls for merchandising fruits and wet or leafy salads. The bowls' design is designed to prevent leaks.
"Everyone is leading busier lives, eating patterns are changing, basic cooking skills are declining and the desire for fast healthy food that is easily prepared is key for the 21st century consumer," Joanna Stephenson, Linpac's marketing and innovation vice president, said in the release.
"Retailers are looking for packaging which displays their products well, drives sales and at the same time creates minimal in-store and in-the-home wastage, (while) food processors and packers require packaging which enhances product value through longer shelf life and also performs efficiently and cost effectively in the food processing supply chain."
Based in Wakefield in West Yorkshire, England, Linpac markets its packaging products through offices in Europe, China and Russia.

Pacers trade: Mike dunleavy, 2011 top 3 protected first rounder, 2012 swap
Pacers get: 2011 unprotected Kings first rounder
Pacers projected wins ( trade machine): -3
Kings trade: 2011 First rounder
Kings get: Gerald Wallace,option to swap first round picks with Pacers in 2012
Kings projected wins: +2
Bobcats trade: Gerald Wallace
Bobcats get: Mike Dunleavy, 2011 top 3 protected Pacers pick
Bobcats projected wins: +1
Kings pick is projected as #2 pick. Pacers only give up dunleavy and most likely a mid round pick in a not-so-good draft and a potential swap in 2012.
We could possibly get Perry Jones, Jerad Sullinger or Kanter without giving up Granger.
Kings want to win now even though they are sucking. Most Kings fans agreed that they would trade their 2011 1st rounder for Gerlad Wallace.
Bobcats are looking to move Wallace to free up cap space. They do this while getting a productive player in dunleavy and a draft pick.
I would think with all the cap space in the offseason and a new coach that we could make a run in the playoffs next year ( assuming no lockout). So the 1st rounder wouldnt be as important.
Future lineup:
Granger/George/D. jones
Perry Jones or Sullinger/ Hansbrough
Hibbert/ Josh McRoberts
^^^ This isn't even considering the $30 million in cap space and we still have second round pick. So you could possibly sit on some of this money until the summer of 2012 and persue a top free agent or restricted free agent ( Eric Gordon?) to fill the starting SG spot. If George is ready, move him to the 3 and trade Danny ( yeah I dont like it either much) for young guys and picks.
Collison ( possibly be a top 5 point guard by then)/ Price
Eric Gordon/ Rush/Lance
George or Danny/ free agent
jones or sullinger/ Hansbrough
Hibbert ( should be an all star once he bulks up and gets back on track/ McRoberts
also we should save some moeny to extend Collison, George, Hibbert, Rush.
I like to plan ahead.
also the Bobcats arent being choked by the Luxury tax anymore. Kings get help now ()

Crisp returns to action from neck injury
OAKLAND -- After missing seven consecutive games with ongoing neck soreness, Coco Crisp returned to action as a pinch-hitter in Monday's 3-2 win over the Rays.
Crisp pinch-hit for Stephen Vogt in the seventh and drew a walk in his first plate appearance since July 26, and he struck out in his only other at-bat in the ninth.
There was a possibility he wasn't going to be available at all for the A's, depending on the results of his pregame batting practice. Now he's in line to make his first start in more than a week on Tuesday.
Before Monday, the A's were 3-4 with a .224 average in their last week of games without Crisp, whose .372 on-base percentage had been sorely missed.

Seattle -- Nordstrom Inc. reported its first quarter net income fell a greater-than-expected 3%, hurt by weak demand for spring merchandise and softer performance in the Northeast and Midwest. The company also lowered its full-year sales forecast.
The results were a rare miss for the upscale department store chain whose shoppers have proved resilient throughout the uncertain economy.
Nordstrom's net income in the quarter ended May 4 fell to $145 million, down from $149 million a year ago. Revenue increased 5% to $2.75 billion, missing Wall Street expectations. Same-store sales were up 2.7%.
Nordstrom's top performing categories included makeup, women's apparel and handbags.
At the company's outlet store division, Nordstrom Rack, net sales increased 10% to $58 million, reflecting 16 store openings since the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Same-store sales increased 0.8%.
