Arab Foreign Ministers Warn World against Recognizing Jerusalem as Israeli Capital
Member-countries of the Arab League said that until Israel makes peace with the Palestinians, they will break off relations with any state that recognizes Jerusalem as the Israeli capital, reported the BBC.online.
In their statement at the end of a two-day meeting held in Cairo, Arab foreign ministers reaffirmed that they were committed to peace but were supporting Palestinian President Yasser Arafat's position that peace could only be sealed when Israel agreed to Palestinian sovereignty over east Jerusalem, said the BBC.
The status of the city was the main stumbling block in the latest round of Palestinian-Israeli peace talks held under US mediation at Camp David in July.
There has been a flurry of diplomatic activity aimed at reviving the talks ahead of September 13th, the deadline set by the Palestinians and Israel to solve all outstanding disputes, said the BBC.
Arafat told Arab foreign ministers on Sunday that Palestinians "will not accept a settlement at any cost," adding that an independent state with Jerusalem as its capital was the least his people could accept in a peace deal with Israel, reported Reuters.
"The city of Jerusalem is at the core of the conflict and is the key to peace in the region," the statement said, adding that UN resolutions made Israeli measures there "invalid and void."
"The Arab nation is still absolutely keen to realize peace according to (Security Council) resolution 242 which affirms that seizing the land of others by force is unacceptable," it said, calling on permanent members of the Security Council to recognize a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital, Reuters said.
Reuters said that the ministers agreed on Sunday that they should all meet again in October and diplomatic sources said they had agreed in principle to call for an Arab summit in January - (Several Sources)

A parish council chairman says a village has won a small victory in a long running row over signs at a West Norfolk beach.
Snettisham Parish Council chairman Eric Langford has welcomed a ruling by Norfolk county councillors over access signs on the village's beach.
Parish councillors and beach property owners have been locked in a row over the signs, which were installed on the sea wall in 2010.
But on Tuesday members of the county council's environment, transport and development working and scrutiny panel have decided the signs should be removed until after the outcome of the forthcoming public inquiry is known.
In June, a planning inspector will be deciding on whether a section of coastal footpath at the beach should be added onto the definitive map.
Parish councillors say this area has historically been used as a footpath but beach property owners say it is private land.
Speaking after Tuesday's meeting, delighted Mr Langford said: "This is a small victory at last for the village which has had to put up with unauthorised signs at the beach.
"Hopefully this will have a positive input to the public inquiry when a decision will be made once and for all about the footpath as a public right of way and complete this part of the coastal route."
The inquiry will be held in the Memorial Hall on June 10.

And then cry with her over how unfair this all is.
Let her see your pain ttmu.
Through thick and thin we will survive but he gets only one shot at it!
Whatever it is which speaks to her is the clearest way to convey what you "feel" to her.
For me, to have my struggle acknowledged and validated would be huge, to just be acknowledged and empathized with (not shown how to fix things, or what I could do to make my life better, or excuses made for the triggers or other teeth kicking incidents, not having him be "angry" for me, or even agreeing that life is unjust and not fair, but to be acknowledged), but your BS may need something different.
As a BGF, I can tell you there is no easy solution. It's almost easier to tell you what not to do. But if you're a caring loving husband who's been reading up here, I'm sure you already know those things.
I think what was mentioned earlier about holding her and just being there for her, is perfect. I also think it helps when some of the stresses are removed. Sometimes being a mom, while in so much pain, can be impossible. Maybe telling her to go relax while you get the kids dinner, baths, and put to bed. It's not about her needing to relax. It's more about needing the time alone to think, and work through what's in our head. For us to recover, it's going to be harder than any job we've ever done. And while on the outside it may look like we're lazy, just sleeping, or not wanting to lift a finger to work....the reality is ALL our energy is going into working through this. I'd do whatever I could to make her able to accomplish this without feeling like her other responsibilities are suffering as a result.
I've been down this road two other times, in failed relationships, and I always wished they would help with this part (without me telling them). It's good that you see she's in pain. Be there for her, and keep trying ....
Them : in the past, where they can stay.
Maybe telling her to go relax while you get the kids dinner, baths, and put to bed
This much I did do... Well, sort of anyway.
I think the biggest struggle for me is thinking of different ways to say I'm sorry and I understand! So much has been going wrong that I'm running out of words. I don't want it to seem like I'm giving canned responses, y'know? I like to think I have a pretty wide vocabulary, but the biggest thesaurus still has a finite number of entries.
I just want her to know I care. I understand that I can't stop the world from turning, I can't protect her from every trigger, that shit happens to everyone.

Ah, the official U.S. Army issue jungle boot. It must have been designed by a team of geniuses. The sole gave a good grip in any terrain and contained a steel plate for protection against booby traps and sharpened sticks (called pungi stakes). There were holes in both sides to allow water to drain out. The upper was woven of nylon so it would dry rapidly. And the rest was durable leather. They supported the foot and ankle well and were comfortable to wear.

This really isn't the end of Will's problems. Buffet Froid, an analogy to the act of serving yourself, but also referring to the 1979 French film with the same title makes a point to uncover Will Graham's state of mind. Unfortunately, he is left in the dark, and the act of dehumanizing him by hiding the truth becomes apparent.
Well played, Dr. Lecter.
In a session with Hannibal, Will is confronted with the problem of feeling alive or not, and he summarizes it with the word "fading". An apt description, considering how he seems to lose himself in the process of reconstructing cases to the point, where his own identity becomes a question mark.
What does it mean for Will to experience a loss of time, to experience spatial neglect as well as hallucinations and an empathy disorder?
It isn't quite simple as overcoming delusions, as Hannibal suggests. One could clearly see how
Will didn't simply reconstruct the thoughts of a killer, but immersed himself completely in it. And this problem leads to Will's own belief that there must be other reasons, neurological in nature that lead to multiple symptoms separate from his mental health.
IdentityFinding yourself and buiding a sense of stability around you is important, which is why being diagnosed properly would have helped Will's recovery. Hannibal is having none of that and proceeds to "make his own design".
He interferes and actively takes Will's agency away from him, although the hints at Hannibal's own interest in Will's conclusions of each case is constantly heightened.
Notice, how the camera focused on Hannibal's reaction when Will suggested that the killer was sad and lonely and that this murder is not based on being savage.
Sanity and insanity is not clear cut. The motivations and the truth behind certain actions is much more complex, and I would argue that this is also the case with Hannibal's intentions regarding Will's diagnosis. Will has Encephalitis, an inflammation of the brain, which means that an accurate diagnosis is extremely important, because usually a patient displays flu-like symptoms or nothing at all.
No treatment can lead to a bleeding in the brain and a permanent brain damage that affects all senses. Memory loss, seizures, fever, disorientation, headache and a potential autoimmune disease are just one part of Will's problems. And Hannibal knew it all along. His manipulation becomes absolute, and Will is ultimately left with the impression that all of his symptoms are cause of a mental illness rather than a physical viral infection. Hiding the truth from him means that Hannibal takes control of Will's identity construction, his search for stability and treatment. His life is now in Lecter's hands.
ParallelsGeorgia wants to feel alive and she believes she does not, which is underlined by the problem of not being able to recognize faces, although she tries to. A similar approach was introduced by Hannibal in order to anchor Will to reality. The problem is a skewed perception of space caused by his viral infection, while Georgia experiences impairments in the visual system that is responsible for recognizing faces. Ultimately, Georgia cannot anchor her own body to herself. The major difference is that Will knows he's alive, while Georgia disconnects with her own body, exhibiting signs of Cotard's Syndrome, a mental disorder. Will's empathy disorder, on the other hand, correlates with his physical problems, adding to the bigger picture. However, Georgia manages to find herself with Will's active attempt to reach out and to help her, which was easily my favorite scene.
Intentions"Will is my friend." Is he or is he not? The degree of interest turning into obsession is fascinating to watch, because Hannibal gains control of himself by being fascinated with another human being. He describes Will's remarkably vivid imagination as beautiful, and Dr. Sutcliffe falls prey to Lecter's motivations because of that. And because he was rude.
Hannibal swears he will "put out the fire", but my impression is that he wants to pour some more oil on it, having a fire that consumes everything in the process.

Cindy your quilting is beautiful! I have just my domestic machine, tho and will have to come up with something much simpler. Also love your red and whites.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Cindy your quilting is beautiful! I have just my domestic machine, tho and will have to come up with something much simpler. Also love your red and whites.
YC Quilter - Wow!!! Your quilt is beautiful
Just popping in (been spending most of my time in the food car LOL), no time for the mystery this time around so just saving the steps.
Wanted to comment on the person who had criticism -- when Bonnie Hunter starts a new mystery, she's known for her rules and the last one is "no whining".
Developing a pattern and spending time and energy to offer these to the group should create an appreciative group. If you don't like the plan, don't participate....simple.
Life's More Fun with a Doxie !!
Have a Great Day !

Judy I have loved all 3 of your Mystery Train quilt patterns!! You are very creative and I thank you for sharing your creativity with all of us!!

Finally got my quilt top finished! I had to get a new card for my camera in order to take a pic (old card was broken).
I found fabric for the backing at Hancock's yesterday. Will use either the red or black fabric for the binding. Haven't decided yet.

I have also taken a break putting my quilt top together, so I can make other Christmas gifts for the holiday's. I think I will put mine together during the first part of January. All of my pieces are done, just waiting on me to sew them together. I am so anxious to get it together, so I can share it with everyone!! Wish me Luck. Happy Holidays to Everyone.
If you see someone without a SMILE, please give them one of yours!!
I'm with you, SulaBug! Somehow life got in the way of getting all my pieces stitched, so it will probably get done after Christmas. Church and Mom keeping me busy right now, but it's all good! Merry Christmas, everyone!

Those two quilts are so beautiful! and I think I would be happy with either of them. Its been a fun ride. Mine has two rows finished sewn together the third row is waiting for after dinner. I figure sew a row together sew it to the others and its working great. Its amazing to see it growing into a quilt. two rows and I think this is so much bigger than I thought for a lap quilt. I am going to have a ball trying to stuff it into my machine for quilting. poor quilt. squishzilla tons of rolling to fit always that middle section. I work from the middle out so there are not bunches which kill me big time on the back between rows. Any other ideas as I do not long arm I am all ears! photo tonight gotta get one more row on so you can see where its going. By Sunday this will be a gift under the tree. this is the goal. going to stick with it. getter done! I keep finding something else to do so by announcing this it might light a fire under .. ah crud forgot a lighter for Steve at the market.. darn it. (see how my brain works) .. I forget everything sigh..
Here today... why what a lucky bunch we are.
elisabrat, I think the secret is lots and lots of pins And as I am pinning from the center out, I keep pulling the backing, reaching to the edge and giving it a little tug. Helps keep all those little puckers from the back.

thanks Judy as I am sewing now I just finished the third row the fabric was getting heavier and heavier I believe its time to shift to the long side of my table to finish. I needmore and more and MORE pins! here is the three row preview. tada i got that far. two more and its sashing and probably more and more
I think the camera has washed it a bit as the pink next to the green is more little girl pink than washed out..
Here today... why what a lucky bunch we are.
Ohhhh so pretty, Elisabrat! Someone is going to have a very beautiful Christmas Present.
"You have enough quilts made when your soul is filled, your creativity satisfied and your fingers just won't work anymore."
Elisabrat,love you quilt.......Labeelady love those Christmas colors.....
Elisabrat, your quilt came out very pretty, she should be super happy to receive it. Mine is on the table, but not quilted yet. Started decorating inside and still in the middle of it. For you old machine buffs out there, I tracked down a 1904 Model 27 Singer treadle and went to Billings yesterday to get it. The cabinet needs alot of work but it will be so worth it. Just a few missing pieces and can replace those. I'm sure I'll never use it, don't think my legs can treadle that long, but she will be pretty to look at. Have always wanted a nice one and this one has all the decals in tack, think it will be perfect. Will be....that's the catch. After the new year project.

My quilt top finished. Had to make it small since I ran out of one fabric, but I love it. Thanks so much for doing this Judy, I really enjoyed it, AND I now have the Irish Chain pattern.

Once again, these two deserved the top spot by themselves tonight but at least they didn't get jipped out of sharing it. That paso was definitely something. If there is a dance of the season, that'd be one of them for me. I love that Anna let most of the focus of the dance be on Evan. That's how you do a solo, and that's how you showcase your celeb. She's done a great job this season, and I'm so glad she's had a chance to really shine. Though I feel like these guys are destined for second, I've certainly enjoyed them this season and think Evan has come a long ways. They deserve it, imo.
I know that the show usually pick the repeat performances for the eliminated couples. The final 3, unelss they changed the format, all dance a repeat dance as well to be re-scored by the judges. I always assumed they picked their own dance but I'm curious now. I think the scoring may be telling next week as to what outcome they're leaning towards. Obviously the freestyle is going to be a crucial round and I think we'll see 2 different styles from Derek and Anna. Whatever their encore dance is, if they're allowed to pick, I bet we'll see them go for their highest scores ones, which may or may not be a good thing. So it'll really be interesting how it breaks down next week.

Already faced with a welter of confusion in his personal life, Deputy Chief Lucas Davenport decides to take this case himself, hoping that some straightforward police work will clear his head, but as the trail begins to take some unexpected turns, it soon becomes clear that nothing is straightforward about this killer. The man is learning as he goes, Lucas realizes, taking great strides forward with each murder. He is becoming a monster, and Lucas may have no choice but to walk right into his lair.
Filled with the rich characterization and detail that distinguish all of Sandford's work, Chosen Prey is a masterpiece of suspense.
Hear Lucas Davenport on the case in more of John Sandford's Prey novels.
©2001 John Sandford; (P)2001 Putnam Berkely Audio, a member of Penguin Putnam Inc., and Recorded Books, Inc., LLC
"Ferrone's light style is perfect for the banter between Minneapolis homicide investigator Lucas Davenport and his colleagues, and he has no problem dialing up creepiness when voicing James Qatar, art teacher by day and remorseless killer, dubbed 'The Gravedigger', by night. Sandford's story, twelfth in his long-running Prey series, is taut and involving, and Ferrone serves it well." (AudioFile)
"a great Sandford thriller"
I just never tire of this author -- the suspense always get me. I think "Winter Prey" is the best of the Prey series, but this one leads you an unmerry chase all the way. The reader knows what is going on, but has to watch the great Lucas Davenport put it all together. A bit different from some of the other Prey novels, and another notch in Sandford's belt.
"Realistic presentation of police probllems"
This is a sad but highly realistic look both at the mind of a serial killer, and at the problems police have in trying to obtain definitive evidence to convict the killer. The murderer in this case is intelligent, meticulous and careful to avoid leaving real clues about his crimes. A very gripping, unhappy tale.
"Good Sandford"
Okay, so this thing is predictable early on. If the Phillies played the Lancaster Barnstormers, well the winner'd be predictable, but both the major league talent and even the minor league enthusiasm would be great to watch. Sanford's reeeeeeely major league (for example see my review of 'Saturn Run'). That's the way with Lucas Davenort novels, they're a whirled of fun. They're as much about the trip as the destination.
Davenport's not a super-Sherlock. He follows breadcrumbs of facts, frequently guesses wrong, and bumps into things. Here again he follows, misuses, and bumps. But doggedly... doggedly. Don't you like that in the guy?
Well I do, and I like Sanford's rarely disappointing craftsmanship. Here's what professional commercial writing looks like, and through Ferrone's voice, what it sounds like. The villain's a foul funny guy who deserves a comeuppance - Totally!
You know it'll come, right?
Or will it?
Fine stuff...
Good Sanford...
Nuff said.
"Chosen Prey Was Not For Me....."
I've enjoyed several of the Davenport series but not all... this one was not for me. I thought the story was "kinda" strange. A pervert moves from a hobby of creating sexy pictures of women into murdering them. For reasons that's not easily put into words, I found the whole story dislikeable and didn't' find it entertaining at all. It was not just one thing, it was just about everything. The story never became compelling to me... I never became invested in the story, the narrator made mistakes like saying "he" instead of "she," the dialog was often choppy; but most of all, the characters were over the top. They came across as cartoonish to me. Disappointed....
Gave 3 stars because I like Ferrone's performance ability...
"too much background noise"
this was the first tape out of a few dozen but... there was background noise. like they were recording it in a public place. it was a bit distracting
"Background Noise"
In a quiet room, one can hear a background voice echo, otherwise a good book
"I like it"
This is my 2nd Lucas D. book; very entertaining and good story. The baddie is very bad. I like the humanity of the cops and their amusing interactions. Didn't hear any background voices or sounds as one reviewer noted.
"OK Book terrible audio recording"
The audio quality is REALLY BAD even in enhanced format.. People are in the backround talking the whole time chairs squeaking ect.. Don't waste the credit !
A friend suggested I listen to the Prey books, and by chance this is my first one. The story is good, but the dialog is often choppy and feels like a characature of what "real" characters would do and say in this situation. I simply can not take these characters seriously!
Also, the reader is less than impressive. He does try to change his voice to do different characters, but with minor characters especially I find that they sound one way in one part of a scene and then different a little later. He also has killed the pronunciation on several words - so badly that I would not have known what the word was if it were not in context, and at least once referred to a female character as "he". Not to mention, if you listen there is this annoying sound through much of the recording - it could be an echo, but I suspect that someone else was reading something nearby.
All in all, I MAY give Sandford another try based on the strength of the original recommendation I got, but I don't imagine I would ever try this reader again.

With the PRO/Engineer test on the Intel Sandy Bridge hardware and high-end FirePro graphics, a CPU bottleneck appeared to be hit. The FirePro V7900 still came out ahead of its siblings, but was only 7% faster than the V7800.
Like the FirePro V5900, when running the Unigine Tropics test due to its demanding OpenGL needs under Linux, the frame-rate actually declined with the Cypress graphics processors. The FirePro V7900 frame-rate dropped by 23% compared to the V7800.

.- The United Nations declaration against all forms of human cloning, including therapeutic cloning, "is a powerful statement in favor of the dignity and inviolability of human life," said the planning and information director of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' Pro-Life Secretariat.
Cathy Cleaver Ruse, Esq., also commended the declaration's call to "prevent the exploitation of women."
"Allowing human cloning for experimentation would require countless numbers of women to surrender their eggs by an extraction process that is both painful and dangerous," said Ruse.
The UN passed the declaration after years of debate, urging member states to adopt laws banning all forms of human cloning "inasmuch as they are incompatible with human dignity and the protection of human life." It was ratified by the General Assembly by a vote of 84 to 34, with 37 members abstaining.
Ruse also hailed the declaration's ban of therapeutic cloning, whose process requires killing an embryo and "treats human life as a commodity to be created for experimentation."
The UN declaration is expected to have a profound impact on human cloning debates around the world, including in the United States.

Andrew Bogut struggled in Friday's blowout loss with just one points and four rebounds, but still managed one steal and two blocks over 17 minutes.
This is the new reality with Bogut, who simply isn't the player he once was with the Bucks because of all of the injuries. It wasn't shocking to see that coming, but he still has value for his defensive statistics and he'll grab a few more boards on most nights.

Tagged: angular, gallery, image size
I want to create a gallery in a page, just like your template; http://kriesi.at/themes/angular/template-files/gallery/#!prettyPhoto
But when I have added images to slideshow (I used the option below the page editor) the page include the images in full size at the top of the page, with the gallery under.
I just want the gallery to be displayed (as your template), not the full size image.
– thanks,
When I installed the Nextgen Gallery plugin, the layout became just like your template. But I would like to use the default "Featured media" function that you provide with your theme…
Still no support? This is for the Angular theme…
To accomplish this you need to upload the images with the default uploader: http://cl.ly/FCWP
afterwards just add
to your content and the gallery should appear.
PS: please dont bump threads, the way our support queue works is that older posts get served first. Bumping a thread only pushes it to the end of the support queue ;)
The topic 'Gallery – just like your template' is closed to new replies.

Marking National Drinking Water Week, the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) unveiled a new consumer-education effort to inform consumers about the importance of water issues such as: the value of water service; how water is brought from the source to the tap; conservation tips; infrastructure improvements; and assistance available for low-income ratepayers.
The event in the Atrium of the Commonwealth Keystone Building also featured comments by Chairman Wendell F. Holland and Commissioner Kim Pizzingrilli; a presentation of a House Resolution for drinking water week by Rep. Carole Rubley (R-Chester/Montgomery); water-related demonstrations by water companies; and a portrayal of one of this country's founding fathers, Ben Franklin, who wrote some profound words about water -- "When the well is dry, we know the worth of water."
Also attending the event were fourth-grade students from the Saint Vincent School in Honesdale, Wayne County, and the Sacred Heart School in Havertown, Delaware County.
"National Drinking Water Week keeps with the PUC's focus on rates and reliability, so the Commission can protect the public interest and increase economic development," said Chairman Holland. "It is a public-private partnership among the Commission, water companies, other government agencies and water-related public interest associations. Together, we want to educate the public about how water service is regulated to provide safe, reliable drinking water at a reasonable price. We always need water. And we all need water.
"That is why we are marking National Drinking Water Week. And why the Commission is launching a new consumer-education effort to inform Pennsylvanians about water. We are also encouraging water utilities to establish special programs to help low-income ratepayers pay their water bill. It is important for consumers to contact their water company to learn about the programs available."
PUC Commissioner Pizzingrilli said, "Every fall, our Commission tells Pennsylvanians to 'Prepare Now' for winter, by giving consumers energy conservation tips. Today, we're asking you to 'Prepare Now for Summer' by conserving water whenever you can. In the summer, we tend to use more water. So here are a few tips to conserve over the coming months:
-- If you need to water your lawn, do so during the coolest part of the day, early morning or evening. Avoid watering on windy days and position the sprinkler to watering only the lawn or garden and avoid paved areas;
-- Use a soapy bucket of water to wash the car and rinse with a hose fitted with an automatic shut-off;
-- Use a broom to sweep clean pavements and driveways instead of hosing them clean;
-- Check your home plumbing for leaks and fix them promptly to help save water and money;
-- Take a shorter shower using a low-flow showerhead instead of taking a bath;
-- Turn off the faucet while brushing your teeth or shaving;
-- Use dishwashers and washing machines only with a full load; and
-- Install water-efficient appliances in your home."

All nonsense aside, the main reason we like sunglasses is because (a) they'll make us look good and (b) we get to admire all the great sights that summer brings us without looking like you're staring. Of course you can be caught if you stare in an overly leech-like manner but aside from that you're merely complimenting the other person's attractiveness. And hey, if they notice you in a good way – a guarantee if your glasses are this nice and you're not hideous to look at – it's the perfect opportunity to go over and talk to them. And yes, this topic is more important than talking about the design of the glasses. (Aplace)

This application is a tribute to this beloved character in america.
Ramón Gómez Valdés de Castillo (September 2, 1923 – August 9, 1988), often credited as Ramón Valdéz, was a Mexican actor of film and television best known for his portrayal of Don Ramón in the popular sitcom El Chavo del Ocho. Prior to becoming a television star, Valdés was an extra in many films.
At the age of two, his family moved to Ciudad Juárez, a northern border town where he and his brothers, Tin-Tan, and El Loco Valdés, polished their acting skills. The three brothers went on to become three of Latin America's most well known comedians. He was born in Mexico City. He was the uncle of Mexican pop singer Cristian Castro.
Valdés participated in more than 50 Mexican films, specializing in hyperactive underdog characters. He is most remembered, however, for playing Don Ramón in the hit television show El Chavo del Ocho. Show creator and main star Chespirito --Roberto Gómez Bolaños-- was a fan of Valdés, and thought Valdés would make a perfect fit to play Don Ramón, an unemployed widower with a daughter (Chilindrina, played by María Antonieta de las Nieves); a person who had romantic interest in him (Doña Clotilde, played by Angelines Fernández); and a neighbor who slapped him across the face on every show (Doña Florinda, played by Florinda Meza). El Chavo, played by Chespirito, would sometimes call Valdés' character "Ron Damón", transposing the initial letter of both words, as some children would do; as a result, Valdés' character was known by both monikers.
Valdés also appeared on Chespirito's other hit show, El Chapulín Colorado, usually as Chapulín's antagonist, the famous Tripaseca ("Dry Gut"). In some episodes, he portrayed a character named Super Sam, an English-speaking, money-thirsty superhero dressed as Superman, clearly mocking Uncle Sam and the relatively wealthy situation of United States, when compared to average Latin American countries, as well as criticizing the American colonialism. Valdés also played El Peterete, the original partner of El Chompiras in early versions of the Los caquitos sketches.
Both El Chavo and El Chapulín became major international hits across Latin America, Spain, the United States and other non-Spanish speaking countries, giving their entire cast international fame. Ramón Valdés was no exception, he would be identified as Don Ramón (or as "Ron Damón") at many different countries he visited.
In Brazil, where the beloved character/actor (as the show itself) is culted by the 80's and 90's generation as a vintage masterpiece, he was known as Seu Madruga instead (literally: Mr. Dawn, for Madruga is short for Madrugada (dawn), following the Portuguese dubbing for El Chavo del Ocho, which, in that country, is called simply Chaves.
In 1979, he left Chespirito, but he returned to television a few years later, with fellow Chavo del Ocho and Chapulín Colorado cast member Carlos Villagrán in Federrico, also known as ¡Ah Quė Kiko!. Federrico found little success, however, and Ramón Valdés returned to work with Chespirito for a brief time in 1981. Valdés and Villagrán were replaced by Raul "Chato" Padilla, a less experimented actor who played Jaimito The Postman in the remaining Chavo del Ocho episodes.
Valdés also owned a circus, participating in circus acts.

EvCC Receives $1.7 Million Student Success Grant
Press Release
Release Date: March 8, 2013
Contact: Heather Bennett, EvCC Executive Director of Resource Development, 425-388-9253; firstname.lastname@example.com
EvCC Receives $1.7 Million Student Success Grant
EVERETT, Wash. – Everett Community College is using a new $1.7 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education to help more students stay in school and graduate.
The five-year grant will enhance advising, help every student create an effective educational plan, increase scholarships for low-income students, fund faculty mentoring and technology training, provide industry-specific language skills training, strengthen retention efforts and support expansion of EvCC's web-based advising data portal.
"Everything we do is focused on student success. This grant enhances our ability to help students stay in college and earn their degree," said EvCC President David Beyer.
As part of the grant funding, the college is expanding its Pathways Center, which provides industry-specific language skills training and supports non-native English speakers interested in pursuing healthcare careers and foreign-trained healthcare professionals wanting to re-enter the field. The Center will now offer language skills and tutoring for ESL and at-risk students studying aviation maintenance and advanced manufacturing.
The grant also pays for a part-time development associate, who will raise money for scholarships and related educational expenses for low-income students. Funds collected locally will be matched, dollar for dollar, with federal funds.
The grant has allowed the college to hire a new director of advising, who will implement strategies to strengthen the experiences of new students. Those strategies include having students meet with an educational planner before their first quarter, connecting students with faculty advisors to develop a degree plan and encouraging students to complete a college success class.
Assistance and coaching of new faculty funded by the grant includes training in using the college's new online learning management system, Canvas, faculty peer mentoring and individual training and support.
The Title III-A Strengthening Institutions grant proposal was developed by EvCC's Student Success and Retention Committee and authored by the college's grant developer Carla Shafer.

Her passagemaking ability delivers best-in-class range, an easy 27 knot cruising speed, and a top speed well above 30.

As with our popular 52 express cruiser, the 68 offers one level liveability with 360 degree views and an unbroken main deck which joins helm, galley, saloon and afterdeck.

When it comes to movies, music, and other pop culture hits, I am usually a few decades behind. I most likely haven't heard of the latest and greatest TV show, nor recognize a line-up of fashionable young actors. Where books are concerned, however, I'm much more omnivorous, consuming modern-day titles along with well-established classics.
In fact, the best book I read this year was written in 1945. When I started reading "Nada" by Carmen Laforet, I temporarily vanished from 2013 and lost myself in a Barcelona as bleak as the title. I was riveted from the very beginning, gripped by the conniving schemes that eventually culminate in murder.
Just one more chapter, I promise!
The book centers around Andrea, a village girl eager to attend college in the big city. Her high hopes for the future are quickly dashed by the reality of feuding relatives and an impoverished existence. Her general disillusion with college peers, especially the cruel treatment of a former friend, exacerbates her increasingly grim outlook on life. As the sinister souls of her uncles make home life more and more unbearable, Andrea tries her best to distance herself from the family. However, when a friend gets tangled up in the same mess, Andrea becomes tethered to the situation, unable to tear herself away from unfolding horrors.
Several times I wondered, sweaty palms gripping the pages, if the main character would suddenly be struck down by the evil forces coursing their way through the novel. I would nervously remind myself that there was still a great deal left: it couldn't possibly make sense to kill off the protagonist now. This feeling of dread, of wondering what was lurking in the shadows, stayed with me all the way through the last chapter of the novel.
Some history
The author was only 23 when she wrote the book, and her work became a huge success. The book was the first to be honored with the Premio Nadal, a prestigious book award given to highlight up-and-coming authors. (As "Nada" was the first book to receive the prize, many people mistakenly believe that the prize takes its name from Laforet's work; however, it is really named in memory of Eugenio Nadal, a beloved editor for the magazine Destino.)
As you may have guessed, the work reflects the downtrodden spirit and disillusionment felt immediately following the Spanish Civil War. For this reason, perhaps, it struck quite the chord with readers. Even today, some consider "Nada" to be a cult classic. It has been compared to "Catcher in the Rye" for this reason, as well as the way both works deal with teenage coming-of-age search for the self.
As I read this book, I was surprised to find myself in a sort of underground club. Many co-workers would bound up to me excitedly when I took my copy out, bubbling over with enthusiasm for the work. (Those who hadn't read it hung their heads, saying it was on their to-read lists.) Even a stranger on the metro stopped to ask me if I was enjoying it, as it was her favorite novel!
Who would like this book?
Readers looking for books set in Barcelona or post-Civil War Spain. Anyone who has been jaded by adulthood. Anyone who wants a spine-tingling, dark read about the grim realities of life.
Is this book available in English?
Yes, it is. While I cannot comment on the English version, as I read it in the original Spanish, you can find the book here on Amazon.

The ''Prevent strategy'' is one part of a four-pronged counter-terrorism approach adopted in the wake of the July 7 bombings, and aims to counter militant Islamism by supporting mainstream Muslim groups which offer an alternative to extremism.
But the programme has been criticised by Muslims who fear it is being used to spy on their communities, and from other ethnic groups who believe that they are missing out on financial support by comparison. A parliamentary report in March warned that the emphasis on Muslims risked being ''stigmatising and potentially alienating''.
Theresa May, the Home Secretary, last month announced a review of the Prevent strategy overseen by the independent counter-terrorism reviewer Lord Carlile of Berriew.
And Lady Neville-Jones today said that it should focus much more narrowly on individuals who have been identified by their communities as being at risk of getting caught up in radicalism, such as Stockholm bomber Taimour Abdulwahab al-Abdaly, who had been thrown out of a Luton mosque for advocating violence but was not reported to the authorities.
She told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: ''Prevent doesn't do what we would like it to do, which is one of the reasons why we are looking at it.
''What it would do in an ideal world is be very focused and give resources to tackling the kind of case we have just seen in the Swedish episode, where an individual has gone from being a perfectly normal upright member of a community with nothing to hide to being someone who actually acts against his fellow citizens.
''That's a process of radicalisation and it is there that we need to focus the money, because it is a very small number of people but what they do is deadly.''
Lady Neville-Jones said that Government cash would be needed for the ''one-to-one, nitty-gritty process'' of intervention with individuals identified as being at risk of radicalisation, which could involve local councillors or other community leaders.
''It is resource-intensive and people-intensive and we have to have money to fund that kind of intervention. That's where the money needs to go. It shouldn't go on cohesion projects which make other communities feel jealous.''
She added: ''We have to bring about systems whereby intervention can take place with those individuals. That involves the local community being willing to tell the police or local authorities 'There is somebody here who needs help'.''
Labour's policy of multiculturalism was a ''mistaken route'' because it emphasised the differences between communities rather than bringing them together, said Lady Neville-Jones.
''We need to bring people together and not fund them separately but fund things that bring people out of their communities to meet each other.''
The response of Muslim communities to requests for help in identifying and preventing extremism was ''variable'', but they were becoming more aware of the risk of damage to their own standing as a result of individuals committing extremist violence, she said.
Mosques in the UK were now ''much more responsible than was once the case about not allowing violence to be preached within their walls'', she said, adding: ''What we need is for those individuals to be notified to police or local authorities.''

Dreams of a pay increase may be put on hold, but that doesn't mean giving up on the idea forever. Eventually, the economy will shake itself out of its doldrums, and employees will once again be in the position to negotiate robust raises.
In the meantime, lay the groundwork for a future raise:
- Do your job better than anyone has done it before.
- Don't ask co-workers to weigh in on whether you should be earning more. You may feel tempted. Don't.
- Ask for more work. Once you're skilled at handling your current workload, look for an extra project to tackle. Show that you can do more and others will think of you as the sort of flexible, talented, can-do person they need to keep.
- Do the work no one else wants to do. In every office there's a crummy project that everyone avoids. Volunteer to do it.
- Shine, even when things look uncertain or when layoffs lead to work pileups. "People never forget how you come across in extremis," Ben Dattner, an executive coach who consults to such companies as Pfizer and Goodyear, tells The Wall Street Journal. "If you can shine at this moment, you'll shine forever."

Every one knows play dough is fun. But is it therapeutic? Can playdough be used to teach skills to children with Autism? The answer is "Yes"! This colored squishy substance, does not just provide your child with opportunities to explore their creativity, but is also an important medium by which you can address various needs of your child.
Exploring uses of Play dough
You've played with it, created with it, now let's see how play dough can be used as a therapy tool:·
Sensory therapy:
- Kneading, rolling, punching, squeezing, flattening and raking the dough all provide proprioceptive sensation to your child. Thicker the dough, more the input your child receives.
- Adding scents and colors to the dough, provides olfactory and visual sensation.
- If your child finds the texture of the dough aversive, initially encourage play with a small amount of the dough. Place little amount on your child's hands and let them pull the dough off. Also encourage your child to roll the dough between their fingers, on the table or using both palms together. As your child becomes more comfortable, increase the amount of dough used in play. Make the dough coarser by adding rice/ sand to the mixture. Apply talcum powder/ oil on child's hands to prevent the dough from sticking.
- For a child who is on gluten free diet and has a tendency to taste all that he plays with gluten free play dough will be an ideal solution.
For stronger hands:
Play dough helps to improve fine motor functions like, strength, dexterity and coordination of hands.
- Along with proprioceptive input, kneading, rolling, puching, squeezing, flattening and raking the dough helps in improving the strength of hand muscles.
- Pinching the dough and rolling between the fingers also help in improving dexterous functions of the child's hands.
- Use of tools like scissors, play knives, presses, cutters, rolling pins help to improve bilateral coordination ( i.e: involving coordinated use of both hands in the tasks) of the hands.
Playdough can be used to facilitate learning in your child. You can use playdough to teach letters, numbers, shapes, colors and many more to your child. Here are some ways on how!
Talk to your child: A commentary will help your child in learning many concepts. Talking about what you are doing will help your child to learn many concept.Similarly ask your child various questions regarding the dough. Repeated asking and similar play will help the child to learn the colors/shapes.
Learning by doing: Some children learn better while doing/ or by using their hands to create. Teach them on how to make shapes, letters/ numbers. Use the play dough as a slate and draw on it to learn the same. This gives a better impression regarding the concept you were trying to teach to your child. Try telling your child to close their eyes and draw a letter/ number/ shape on the play dough (using his finger) . Now ask your child to guess what was drawn by them and see if your child has learnt the concept.
Mix and match: You can make learning fun by mixing and matching. For eg: you would like to teach your child colors and shapes, so make a shape using the decided color. The key to this play would be to talk continuously to your child. Similarly counting and shapes, make a certain number of shapes and ask your child to count them. You can make a certain letter and ask your child to pick a picture chart of an image which starts with that letter e.g "A for Apple".
Social skills:
Play using play dough will help your child to interact better with others. Your child may learn
Asking for needs: e.g a particular color of the dough/ a tool they need
Taking turns: when there are more people playing the child may have to wait his turn to use a particular tool
Sharing: by allowing others to play with their toys, or involving in a group game helps your child to learn how to share with others.
Play dough games:
Now that you know the benefits of play dough here are some games you can try out with your child
Theme based play: Own a restaurant, be a teacher a carpenter etc and create using play dough.
Making the longest snake: Roll out the play dough and see who can make the longest snake in the room
Play dough Puppets: Make puppets using the play dough and put on your own show. It can be enacting nursery rhymes, a scene from your household or a small story which your regularly tell your child.
Home made Play dough:
Now that you know how valuable play dough can be to therapy, be prepared. Always have a stash of play dough ready for use at all times. So visit this site to get a handy home made recipe for making play dough. The author has given ideas on adding on scents and colors to the dough which also gives a lot of sensory feedback to your child. A recipe for gluten free play dough is found here.

The bodies of those involved in the attack against an Egyptian police station in the Sinai were handed over to Egyptian authorities by Israel. Yet, until their identity is revealed, speculation regarding the nature and goals of the attack will abound. Although suspicion has fallen on the jihadists who have been hanging around the Sinai since the country's grip on security loosened, it is necessary to determine if these jihadists are locals who have benefited from Egyptian political developments and conspired with their counterparts in the Gaza Strip, or of the type that was deployed in Iraq to serve regional powers.
The attack has revealed a number of important facts concerning the Gaza-Egypt-Israel border triangle. First and foremost, it has shown that the area is the soft underbelly of the Sinai's security on both the Egyptian and Palestinian sides. This weakness allowed for the easy execution of such a bloody attack. Had they fled into the Egyptian desert instead of heading toward Israel, it is likely that a long time would have passed before they were arrested. However, after entering Israel, they were killed by an Israeli air strike targeting the vehicle that they had stolen from the Egyptian police station.
Secondly, this attack confirms that the Egyptian-Palestinian border is not only penetrated by those smuggling goods, but also by jihadists coming from Egypt seeking refuge in Gaza, and vice versa. Every time an attack takes place in the Sinai, whether against Egyptian forces or tourists, Cairo announces its suspicion that parties from Gaza were involved, just as it has done regarding this recent attack.
This fact had a direct impact on the Gaza siege, and led to the closing of border crossings and tunnels by Egypt, either by a direct decision on the part of the Egyptian authorities, or as a result of pressure from Israel, which has always claimed that perpetrators of attacks within Israel are entering from the Sinai.
In this regard, Israel is taking advantage of such attacks, using them as justification to push measures that serve the state's security vision for the border triangle. Israel has also used this opportunity to display its continuous readiness and military superiority. This comes at a time in which Egypt is showing an incomprehensible loosening of security in the Sinai, going against the limitations of the peace treaty.
However, the fact that Israel is the one who benefits politically from these terrorist attacks does not mean that security forces should not seek out the perpetrators. Through orchestrating these attacks, the perpetrators are serving Israeli interests by undermining Egyptian security and providing Israel with pretexts to justify the way it deals with Palestinians.
While the Egyptian military released a statement stressing that the perpetrators of the latest attack are terrorists who received help from Gaza, the Muslim Brotherhood, whose leader became president of Egypt, has accused the Israeli Mossad of being behind the attack. These allegations were made before any serious and credible investigation was conducted. The deposed government in the Gaza Strip has echoed the Brotherhood's position.
Although the Mossad does not hesitate to orchestrate killings, particularly when they serve Israeli interests, to hastily accuse the Mossad of being behind the latest attack in the Sinai is to overlook a number of facts relating to the prevailing situation in the peninsula.
These accusations draw the focus away from the identity of the actual perpetrators, in addition to impeding any official action to deal with this growing phenomenon, something that President Morsi vowed not to neglect.
On the other hand, the current political environment, in which Israel is affected by turmoil in Arab countries, is contributing to the promotion of extremism. This is particularly true in light of the new political climate in Egypt, in which the Brotherhood has a large influence on politics, and in the Gaza Strip, where a branch of the Brotherhood is ruling.

Santa Clara, CALIF. -- Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning will be in the spotlight Sunday at Super Bowl 50, but the Broncos' hopes could rest with two under-the-radar running backs who shared the workload this season.
Neither Ronnie Hillman nor C.J. Anderson cracked 1,000 yards rushing this season, but they combined to run for 1,583 yards and 12 touchdowns. Hillman rushed for a team-high 863 yards and seven TDs on 207 carries. Anderson carried 152 times for 720 yards and five scores.
The more yards Hillman and Anderson can gain on the ground, the better chance Manning will have to make plays in the passing game.
"Super important," Anderson said Tuesday of the Broncos' running game. "We just know that me and Ronnie, we have to be patient and pick our spots. When we get a chance to executive and make big plays, we have to take advantage of that.
"Sometimes we'll leave some runs out there throughout the season, but Sunday's not one of those times. If we got a chance to make a big play and change the game, that's something we got to do."
Hillman said it won't be easy running the ball against Carolina's rugged front seven.
They're a great front seven," Hillman said. "They hustle. You can't relax with them. You've got to be able to stay on your p's and q's and dot your i's with those guys. They have Pro Bowl players and great players at every level, so you definitely have to respect that."
Anderson, who grew up in the Bay Area and went to Cal, had two 100-yard rushing games during the regular season, and he gained 144 yards on 31 carries during playoff wins against Pittsburgh and New England. Hillman topped 100 yards four times in the regular season and has 54 rushing yards on 27 postseason carries.
Hillman said whoever has the "hot hand" will get most of the carries Sunday.
"When you've got two backs that are productive, it definitely helps," Hillman said. "C.J. does a great job. Dudes always be bouncing off of him. It's definitely a complementary backfield."
--Broncos defensive end Derek Wolf, who began the season with a suspension for using performance-enhancing drugs, is finishing with a flurry on the field with play that is very enhanced.
Wolfe, who served a four-game suspension to open the season, has contributed at least a half a sack in all but one game since week 11, showing why the Broncos gave him a four-year contract worth $36.7 million during the team's off week, courtesy of a first-round bye.
"You know it started off rough with the suspension and everything, but I am happy with the way it turned it," Wolf said Tuesday at the team's Super Bowl press conference. "We have one more game to win, that is all I am really concerned with."
He is especially proud that the Broncos have the No. 1 defense in the league.
"I think the whole team takes pride; it is not just the offense, or the defense, I mean. I think we all as a team take pride in being able to (not allow) points and give our offense chances."
Wolf acknowledges that any defense that lists DeMarcus Ware and Von Miller has a pretty good head start.
"Yeah, DeMarcus, there can't be enough said about him," Wolf said. "He is a great leader, tries to help young players get better. Any time you ever need anything he would help you. That is the kind of guy you want to help get a ring on his finger.
"Von ... is goofy and goofs around, jokes around, but when it is time for business he locks it in. He brings a different kind of energy, you know. You know his leadership is getting better and better every year. So I love playing with a guy like that."
Wolf points to Carolina quarterback Cam Newton as the biggest challenge for him in this game.
"I think we just stay after him. You got to wrap him up. He is a big guy, so you got to get your hands on him and hold on."
Wolf hopes to stop Newton from dancing, which he thinks is fine as long as it isn't against the Broncos.
"Hey, when you are doing well, you are going to dance. So everybody has to create their own brand, their own identity and be their self. So, go ahead, we are just going to do our best to make sure he isn't doing it on Sunday."
-- Broncos defensive end Malik Jackson was asked the difference between rushing New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and Carolina's big, mobile Cam Newton
"You have to take a different approach," he said, understating the situation. "Brady is not going to go too far too fast, but Cam can kind of take off and do things with his legs -- and you know he will as soon as he gets a chance.
"You definitely have got to make sure that if we're rushing just four, we've got to be able to keep them in front of us and make sure that nobody is rushing behind the passer and that we just open up lanes for them. It's definitely hard."
Jackson credits defensive coordinator Wade Phillips for allowing the players to be themselves.
"He lets us be our personality, he lets us be players, great players on the field," Jackson said. "He puts us in the right places to be and that's one of those things as a player you can ask for, so that's what I like him.
"I'm surprised about how energetic he is. When I first met him, it was one of those things like, 68, that's old, so it was one of those things. But he definitely keeps up with us. He definitely knows his music now and definitely knows what's going on and it's definitely cool to see him. I think we help keep him young, too, and help him just keep going, so it's definitely a great friendship."
--Carolina head coach Ron Rivera interviewed with the St. Louis Rams for their top coaching position in 2006. Rivera spent the previous three seasons as the defensive coordinator for the Chicago Bears -- a team he helped to win Super Bowl XX over the New England Patriots (46-10) in 1985 as a linebacker for the famed "Monsters of the Midway" defense.
The job eventually went to Scott Linehan, who had been offensive coordinator/wide receivers coach for Minnesota and Miami. Rivera would have inherited a team in major transition. As it turned out, Linehan was fired four games into the 2008 season after an 11-25 coaching record.
"Well, back then, I thought I was ready. In retrospect, when you look back at it, I've grown a lot on this job, so I might not have been ready looking at it now, from this perspective." Rivera said during a media session leading up to his team's first Super Bowl appearance since 2003 when they lost 32-29 to the New England Patriots.
"At the end of the day, they (St. Louis) decided to go with an offensive coach. It was their decision because at the time they felt they wanted to emulate what they had with the greatest show on turf. In hindsight, I might not have been ready for that."
Considering that many believed Rivera would be fired by Panthers owner Jerry Richardson after a 1-3 start in 2013, Rivera is happy he was allowed to prove himself as a leader of this team.
"All I can say is that I'm very fortunate to have an owner with a lot of patience," Rivera said.

Akshay Kumar had a fantastic last year with some big hits like Namastey London, Heyy Babyy, Bhool Bhulaiyaa and Welcome. While 2008 many not have begun on the right note for the 'Khiladi' Kumar, with Tashan failing at the B.O., Akki is not one to be worried. In fact, he is all set to prove that he is indeed the King of the B.O. with his next release Singh is Kinng. The film is produced by Vipul Shah and directed by Anees Bazmee.

I've purchased a few items from the brand recently through Spirit Beauty Lounge and bought a few eye shadows and cream blushes in the refill format. These refills are handy and allow me to pop them into my Z Palette. Also available are beautiful shiny metal cases, but since they are priced high, and since I love my free-form palettes, I've opted not to purchase those.
I kind of don't like the idea of powder to cream cross contamination, but I've put the cream pans far off into the corner. Is smart.
The absence of silicone seems to make the biggest impression on me formula wise. It's blendability comes from various waxes, butters and botanical oils. The Kjaer Weis cream blush takes a bit of warming under the fingertips to become a bit malleable and therefore more blendable. While I generally like the feel of fingertips for applying cream blushes, I think these do better when dabbed on with fingers and then using a dense brush to sheer out and blend. It doesn't have the easy slip of the new Chanel cream blushes nor of the Addiction cheek sticks.
They feel fantastic on the skin once applied. All the various emollient ingredients do a nice job keeping a soft dewy finish. In terms of lasting powers, I found both cream shades to perform about par for me, which is to say, not that long. Within 3 hours, the colors fade away into just a hint of what was originally applied. I suspect those of us with drier skins will love the formulation as well as expect a longer lasting time.
I found these colors surprisingly pigmented. Abundance is described on the Spirit Beauty Lounge website as a modern plummy taupe and Blossoming is described as a natural mauve.
I'm not sure what I was expecting when I chose Abundance, but I thought it would be more plummy.
I am working on posting on the three eye shadows I've purchased: Wisdom, Charmed and Pretty Purple in the next few days. Have you also used Kjaer Weis products? If so are you motivated by its natural heritage or because of the quality, esthetics and colors? I am in the latter camp.
I had to shove that kitty aside to take these pictures!

It's a great way to start off the new year and wipe away the mid-winter blues. Eloise loved the music and the Ukrainian dancers, her little feet could not lie 😉 The ice and snow carvings are a treat to see and I always love seeing the freezer races. On top of all that fun, I had a chance to showcase two of my prints at the festival's art gallery. The gallery gives local artists a great opportunity display their art 🙂
Here are the two prints hanging on the Gallery Wall.

A24 Really IS Pushing James Franco for a 'Spring Breakers' Oscar
by Alex Billington
October 10, 2013
Source: Twitter
Consider this sh*t! Oh yes, it's happening. The 2013 awards season is heating up and there's one underdog contender that might go all the way - James Franco as "Alien" in Harmony Korine's Spring Breakers. You heard right. A24 first released Spring Breakers in March this year and just posted a message on twitter: "We weren't joking. Consider this shit very seriously. James Franco for Best Supporting Actor." Attached is a brand new For Your Consideration ad they're placing. This is happening and I've confirmed they really are pushing Franco for a nomination, at least. Aside from Jared Leto in Dallas Buyers Club (who will probably win) the category is still open and there's no definitive nominees (except for Leto). But Franco has a chance?
Here's the newest For Your Consideration ad for James Franco as Alien, tweeted out by @A24Films today:
And here's the other initial FYC ad revealed in September to first start their awards push for James Franco:
As crazy as all this sounds, James Franco has risen to prominence recently and he does actually give a great performance in Spring Breakers. The film is much better than most expect and with the right support, he could get a nomination in the end. Way back in October of last year, after the film premiered at festivals, we ran a story about Annapurna Pictures considering releasing in 2012 in time to push Franco, but that was before A24 bought the film and set it for March 2013. Spring Breakers did quite well at the box office ($14 million in total) and got the attention of the real-life rapper that Franco is playing, which eventually lead to a lawsuit bringing even more attention to the film. Honestly, as crazy as this sounds at first, it would be fun and interesting to see Franco end up with a nomination. I hope it happens. "This is my fuckin' dream, y'all!"
