In Season 2 of the phenomenally popular sci-fi hit, Quinn (Jerry O'Connell, Crossing Jordan), Arturo (John Rhys-Davies, The Lord of the Rings trilogy), Wade (Sabrina Lloyd, Ed) and Rembrandt "Crying Man" Brown (Cleavant Derricks, World Traveler) come up against some of their trickiest foes yet, including a vicious group of aliens, greedy corporate raiders and the shocking double versions of themselves. As their slides take them to strange new dimensions and some that look eerily familiar, only one thing remains the same: their desire to go home. Join the foursome in all 13 thrilling episodes in this 4-disc collection as they search for a way to get back to where it all began.

|Indonesian civil societies Support for Bill C-300 on Corporate Accountability
One of the mining companies taking our attention is the nickel mining of PT. Inco. For more than 41 years, this company has mined Sorowako, South Sulawesi. During this operational phase, they come up with negative records, starting from emerging violence, land eviction, environmental degradation, labor exploitation and discrimination, protected forest mining, and has also blatantly violated the laws. Even though most of the stocks of PT. Inco had been released since 2007, these detrimental issues that indeed occurred in sites around PT. Inco mining have been started ever since they were owning most of the stocks for the previous 39 years.

This coming week, Sunday, May 20 through Saturday, May 26 is National Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Week. This year's theme is "EMS: Answering the Call. " According to the American College of Emergency Physicians, the coordinators of National EMS Week, this year's theme emphasizes the responsiveness of emergency medical services around the country, the importance of the national 9-1-1 emergency number system and the enthusiasm and dedication of the nation's 750,000 E MS providers. New Jersey is unique in that most of its first aid squads are volunteer and not supported with tax dollars. In New Jersey, there is a two-tiered system of c are for victims of sudden and serious illness or injury.
The first tier of the system is basic life support, provided by a community's local first aid or rescue squad. Locally, such services are ably provided by the dedicated men and women of the West Caldwell-based West Essex First Aid Squad, which services Caldwell, Essex Fells, Fairfield, North Caldwell and West Caldwell, and Roseland's own Roseland First Aid Squad. Let's not forget also our police departments who are often the first on the scene of an emergency and have, in fact, saved lives through the use of the automatic defibrillator to restore the heartbeat of a victim.
The second tier of the system is advance life support. These are the hospital-based mobile intensive care units (MICU) out of such places as Mountainside Hospital in Montclair, Saint Barnabas in Livingston and Chilton Memorial in Pompton Plains, staffed by paramedics who, in essence, bring the hospital's emergency department to the scene of an emergency. Paramedics are specially trained health car e providers who act as the eyes and the ears of the emergency room physician. They are trained to intervene immediately in the case of a life-threatening emergency.
We are, indeed, fortunate to have the services of these EMTs and paramedics available at the end of a 9-1-1 call.
Remember, though, that our first aid squads are staffed by volunteers. They are our friends and neighbors who give up their time to be there when someone is in need. The squads can only continue to operate if there's enough personnel to keep them going. In recent years, with more and more people working longer hours at their regular jobs, daytime squad members have been more difficult to come by. Anyone who has some time to contribute to their community would do well to consider volunteering to a first aid squad. Anyone who can is encouraged to answer that call.

In addition to product expansion, as consumer demand for online dating and matchmaking services has grown, new companies have entered the industry, says Moldvay.
IBISWorld estimates that the number of companies in the Dating Services industry increased at an average annual rate of 3.1% to 3,898 in the five years to 2013.
The Dating Services industry has performed well during the five years to 2013.
Revenue gains averaged 2.9% per year to reach $2.0 billion in 2013, with consumers increasingly turning to the internet to meet prospective dates.
"Industry firms that provide subscription-based membership, however, faced revenue declines during 2009 due to declining per capita disposable income levels during the recession," explains IBISWorld industry analyst Caitlin Moldvay.
"Fortunately, revenue has grown consistently throughout the remainder of the five-year period." In response to the increasing number of US adults with smartphone devices, companies introduced a bevy of new products, including i Phone, Android and Blackberry dating apps, as well as locations services that use global positioning system (GPS) technology to find other single people in a customer's vicinity.
In 2013 the Match Group generated worldwide sales of 788 million U.
The "Revenue" box shows the forecasted revenue development of the selected market (market segment, region) in million US dollars for each year.
Headquartered in Los Angeles, IBISWorld serves a range of business, professional service and government organizations through more than 10 locations worldwide.
This statistic gives information on the development of the mobile dating market revenue in the United States from 2009 to 201 with forecast until 2017.
In the past five years, some prominent acquisitions and partnerships have taken place, namely by IAC. The Dating Services industry can expect strong demand in the next five years.

Grove Press is a hardcover and paperback imprint of Grove Atlantic, Inc. Grove Press
was founded on Grove Street in New York's Greenwich Village in 1947. But its
true beginning came in 1951 when twenty-eight-year-old Barney Rossett, Jr.
bought the company and turned it into one of the most influential publishers of
the 1950s, 60s, and 70s. From the outset, Rossett took chances: Grove published
many of the Beats including William S. Burroughs, Jack Kerouac, and Allen
Ginsberg. In addition, Grove Press became the preeminent publisher of twentieth-century
drama in America, publishing the work of Samuel Beckett (Nobel Prize for
Literature 1969), Bertold Brecht, Eugene Ionesco, David Mamet (Pulitzer Prize
for Drama 1984), Harold Pinter (Nobel Prize for Literature 2005), Tom Stoppard,
and many more. The press also introduced to American audiences the work of
international authors such as Jorge Luis Borges, Mikhail Bulgakov, Marguerite
Duras, Jean Genet, Pablo Neruda, Octavio Paz (Nobel Prize for Literature 1990),
Kenzaburo Oe (Nobel Prize for Literature 1994), Elfriede Jelinek (Nobel Prize for
Literature 2004), Alain Robbe-Grillet, and Juan Rulfo. In the late 1950s and
early 1960s, Barney Rossett challenged the obscenity laws by publishing D. H.
Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover and then Henry Miller's Tropic of
Cancer. His landmark court victories changed the American cultural
landscape. Grove Press went on to publish literary erotic classics like The
Story of O and ground-breaking gay fiction like John Rechy's City of
Night, as well as the works of the Marquis de Sade. On the political front,
Grove Press published classics that include Franz Fanon's The Wretched of
the Earth, The Autobiography of Malcolm X, and Che Guevara's The
Bolivian Diary, among many other titles. In 1986, Barney Rosset sold the
company and the press became part of Grove Weidenfeld. In 1993 that company was
merged with Atlantic Monthly Press to form Grove Atlantic, Inc.
Since 1993, Grove Press has been both a hardcover and paperback imprint of Grove
Atlantic publishing fiction, drama, poetry, literature in translation, and
general nonfiction. Authors and titles include Jon Lee Anderson's Che
Guevara: A Revolutionary Life, Robert Olen Butler's A Good Scent from a Strange
Mountain (Pulitzer Prize for Literature 1993), Kiran Desai's Inheritance
of Loss (Man Booker Prize 2006), Richard Flanagan's Gould's Book of Fish
(Commonwealth Prize 2002), Ismail Kadare's The Siege, Jerzy Kosinski's Steps
(National Book Award 1969), Jacqueline Susann's Valley of the Dolls, Nick
McDonell's Twelve, Catherine Millet's The Sexual Life of Catherine M.,
Pascal Mercier's Night Train to Lisbon, Kay Ryan (Poet Laureate of the
United States 2008/9) as well as Antonio Lobo Antunes, Will Self, Barry Hannah,
Terry Southern, and many others.
This compelling new biography of the legendary mistress of King Louis XV of France offers a dramatic insight into the life of one of the most enchanting, powerful, and feared women to grace the world's stage. The critically acclaimed author of Philippe, duc d'Orléans, Christine Pevitt Algrant presents a new biography of the most famous of Louis XV's mistresses. From her modest beginnings in early-eighteenth-century Paris, to her reign as the undisputed mistress of Versailles, Madame de Pompadour traces the life of a truly remarkable, self-made woman whose astonishing rise confounded the most experienced and the most sophisticated of her contemporaries.Algrant weaves her richly textured manuscript with tremendous authority, setting the dramatic events that marked Madame de Pompadour's life against the defining moments of the times. Groomed from an early age to assume the role of a rich man's mistress, Jeanne-Antoinette Poisson underwent a number of transformationsfrom a halfhearted marriage to a Parisian tax collector to a lifelong involvement with the financial elite of Francebefore she captivated the king himself and was officially recognized as his maîtresse déclarée. Although accustomed to the king's extramarital relationships, the court was shocked at the sudden ascension of the low-born Mademoiselle Poisson. The newcomer, however, wasted no time, quickly establishing herself as the king's sole confidante and, ultimately, his indispensable partner in affairs of state.Algrant takes the reader into the farthest and most exclusive chambers at Versailles, allowing us to glimpse the resourcefulness and the determination with which the king's favorite deftly manipulated the factions at the court. She also illuminates Madame de Pompadour's influence across the artistic and political spectrum of the day, including her relationships with the leaders of the French Enlightenment: Voltaire, Rousseau, and Diderot. Evocative and insightful, Madame de Pompadour is a seductive portrait of one of the most fascinating and influential women of the age.

The unmanned Navy aircraft are going to be able to distinguish small pirate boats from other ships when an Office of Naval Research (ONR)-funded sensor begins airborne tests this summer.
The robocopter is called Multi-Mode Sensor Seeker (MMSS). That sensor is a mix of high-definition video cameras, mid-wave infrared sensors and laser-radar (LADAR) technology. It is going to be placed on a robotic helicopter called Fire Scout. Carrying advanced automatic target recognition software, the sensor prototype is going to allow Fire Scout to autonomously identify little boats on the water, reducing the workload of Sailors operating it from control stations aboard Navy vessels.
"Sailors who manage the robotic systems can become overloaded with data, often sifting through hours of streaming video searching for a single vessel," said Ken Heeke, program officer in ONR's Naval Air Warfare and Weapons Department. "The automatic target recognition software gives Fire Scout the ability to distinguish target boats in congested coastal waters using LADAR, and it sends that data to human operators, who can then analyze those ship in a 3-D picture."
Navy-developed target recognition algorithms aboard Fire Scout is going to exploit the 3-D data collected by the LADAR, utilizing a long-range, high-res, eye-safe laser. The software compares the 3-D imagery to ship templates or schematics stored in the system's memory.
"The 3-D data gives you a leg up on target identification," said Dean Cook, principal investigator for the MMSS program at Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD). "Infrared and visible video cameras produce 2-D pictures, and subjects in them can be difficult to automatically identify. With LADAR data, each pixel corresponds to a 3-D point in space, so the automatic target recognition algorithm can calculate the dimensions of an object and compare them to those in a database."
The algorithms have been successfully tested in shore-based systems against ships at sea. The software is being integrated into a BRITE Star II turret by a team from NAWCWD, Raytheon, FLIR Systems, BAE Systems and Utah State University for airborne testing aboard a manned test helicopter. The flight assessment is going to be conducted against groups of approximately seven small vessels in a military sea range off the California coast later this summer.

Canned Ghee: Pronounced with a hard "G" and silent "h" (like bee), ghee is clarified butter... that is, butter with the lactose and milk solids removed. This remarkable cooking oil requires no refrigeration and has an extremely long shelf life. Ghee is a pourable liquid at room temperature, and can be used in any type of cooking. It has easy-cooking properties, and its amazing taste enriches the flavors of both sweet and savory foods. It has an excellent aroma and is so flavorful that you can use a third to half less than you would of other cooking oils. Having a high burning point, it won't burn or smoke when sautéing or frying food. It can be used for barbecuing or in baking, replacing butter and oils. Each can contains 14 ounces.
Incredible shelf life: Finding storable oils can be difficult. Canola and olive oil, for example, have only a 1 to 3 year shelf life. Because it's canned and pasteurized right in the airtight can, ghee's shelf life is a minimum of 10 years (and likely longer). In other products, water is a major culprit in shortening shelf life; the moisture content of our ghee is less than 1% (compared to 8% for ordinary butter). Ghee keeps for months without refrigeration even after opening as long as you keep out all water and other contaminants; be sure to serve from the container only with a clean and DRY spoon each time. (Opened ghee may be refrigerated if you choose, but if you do, beware of allowing condensation to form on the container's inside rim where it can get into the ghee and cause spoilage.) Our canned ghee is stamped with the manufacturing date, but no expiration date because because it has passed the USDA test demonstrating it has a shelf life in excess of five years.
Health benefits: Ghee is healthful because it's 100% natural, containing no trans-fats, artificial ingredients or preservatives. It's also high in vitamin A and is lactose free. Ghee aids digestion and nutrient assimilation – unlike the empty calories from most oils. Though it's just becoming known among consumers in the U.S, ghee has been a chef's secret in the kitchens of health-conscious restaurants for years, and it's actually been used worldwide for millennia. Starting from fresh pasteurized cream, our ghee is produced in the USA.
You can't beat the rich, creamy, buttery taste of genuine butter. It's all there, plus extended shelf life, with ghee!

Infiniti named Tony Lewis as its new sales chief in the UK. In taking on the official title of Regional Director Europe North, Lewis takes over the position left by Angus Gray who will be transferred and will be given the responsibility of continuing growth in the network of European Infiniti Centres. Lewis' role will be a significant one as Infiniti shifts to the second phase of the launching in the UK.
The carmaker aims to expand its network coverage throughout the region after the brand's small but ideally executed debut in late 2009.
Lewis, 48 years sold, said that Infiniti's launch is a "textbook exercise" in presenting a new luxury brand. He said that the company has to move forward from the difficult economic period and make sure that it takes advantage of all the good work and then "really start" to have an impact in the UK.
Lewis said that the circumstances and conditions are right for this goal to be achieved, with its exclusive Infiniti Centres, its partnership with Formula One World Champions Red Bull Racing, and its expanding range of performance cars.
He said that he considers it "an amazing opportunity" to be working for Infiniti at this point in its European development. Lewis, who reports to Infiniti Europe Commercial Director Guillaume Pelletreau, is responsible for boosting the sales of the growing Infiniti lineup, concentrating on major Northern European markets like the UK.
Lewis reports to Guillaume Pelletreau, commercial director of Infiniti Europe and in charge of the sales drive of the Infiniti line-up expansion, focusing on major Northern European markets like the UK. The range of six models consists of coupes, saloons, convertibles plus crossovers and only recently has been extended in Europe by the introduction of new high performance V6 diesel engine variants and the M35h, among the most technologically advanced and high performance hybrid models.
Thus, it is not surprising that the Infiniti Europe sales are set to increase by 100% this year. Scheduled to arrive are a compact electric luxury vehicle, 4-cylinder power-driven cars as well a fast developing competitor luxury C-segment.
At present, there are four Infiniti Centers in the UK and two more are situated in Stockport and Leeds, which will start business in the latter part of the year. There are more planned for 2012. Lewis has another important mission, which is to further expand the network to more North European markets.
Formerly a British Army officer as well as a self-confessed car fanatic, Lewis started his motor industry profession with Ford and has dealt with both cars plus commercial vehicles. His latest position was as Nissan LCV's European Marketing and Sales Director.

Take a look at the very first promo video for Kollywood composer Harris Jayaraj's upcoming mega concert Harris On The Edge .The video starts off with a lonely dark hall being suddenly lit up from a divine light from up above from the very second, Harris puts his hand on the C note on his piano (uh….maybe it's a B ….but yeah he's got those light settings controlled well with those keys)
Harris soon starts to nod as if he doesn't want any more food, water or any another disturbing necessity being too occupied soaking in the sonic airwaves bursting out from his dear piano. One of the scenes seems really terrifying as we see the musician held up in a 45 degree angle with his piano surprisingly sticking to his thumbs (Ohhh! …Harris don't fall off the stage….whuuf ….the camera man just told us it was his new trick).Soon Harris regains his composure as he again starts nodding a "NO! NO!…. I don't want Coca Cola today I'll get drunk on music all day".(Yeah that's his next chartbuster number , courtesy Kollytalk ) The song in question quite befitting sounds a wonderful piano version of his 5-star KO hit Ennamo Yedho.(Harris we so wanted you to play one of those oldies…..even Nenjukkul Peidhidum would have done a great job…but anyway we still love the refreshing KO version)
Ayayayo we totally forgot da! The concert will be held at the famed Mayajaal Grounds,Chennai. Contact the number in the end of the video to book your tickets.

Can anyone tell me how to make a human voice sound like that at 1:59-2:03, approximately?
"The inner machinations of my mind are an enigma."
This video is a remix of sorts of a famous Spongebob episode.
It's made with a vocoder. Most comnercial DAWs have a suitable plugin included. In a nutshell, the process involves modulating a tonal sound, typically a synth pad, with either live or prerecorded speech. A quick search will point you to many good sources and tutorials.
Yup voice recorder plugin, I made some hilarious goat sounds synthed them into a track.
You can do it by using your voice recorder in a proper way.
Audacity has a free vocoder in it.

Please let me know if you have any comments/criticisms on the itinerary below...
We have 2 nights in Athens in mid-June. We are staying in Syntagma Square.
Day 1 --
Dinner and evening in Plaka area
Day 2 --
morning: Ancient Agora and related sites, Monastaraki flea market area
after lunch: Benaki Musuem and Kolonaki area
*** Can we fit in the Benaki before lunch? Just not sure how much time to allocate for these areas. We are late 40s couple traveling with four kids aged 19-23. Definitely interested in ancient history as well as art history, but more interested in highlights and won't want to meander too long in one place.***
Day 3 --
morning: temple of zeus, new acropolis museum, and acropolis
(leaving after lunch)
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Athens: Is this itinerary doable? Please advise
Please let me know if you have any comments/criticisms on the itinerary below...

I think it's doable, rushed, but you acknowledged that. Day 1 I'm not sure, others will comment.
The point I wanted to make is that you shou,d make time to see the changing of the guard at Parliament House. It's quite spectacular and I think you'll all enjoy it. From memory it's every hour on the hour.
Report Abuse
An evening in the Plaka area sounds great, make sure you go up to Anafiotika, which looks like a small Cycladic village in the middle of Athens, and offers a great view over the city.
As for dinner, locals avoid the restaurants of the Plaka for offering " touristy" food..
There are two excellent restauranst next to the Plaka that i'd like to recommend to you :
1. Trapezaria
their website is unfortunately only in Greek.
The food is excellent !!!!
2. Attikos Greek House
Great Greek cuisine, and one if the nicest terraces with panoramic view to the Acropolis and the Pilipappou Hill.
Your second day sounds good, but if you want to see the archaeological sites and monuments of this area, you won't have time to see also the Benaki Museum before lunch.
For Thisseion, the Museum of Kerameikos, the Roman Agora, the Ancient Agora etc you will need 1/2 day
There is a ticket that includes entrance to the following archaeological sites at the price of 12 Euro :
Acropolis of Athens, Ancient Agora of Athens, Archaeological Museum of Kerameikos, Hadrian's Library, Kerameikos, Museum of the Ancient Agora, North slope of Acropolis, Olympieio, Roman Agora of Athens, South Slope of Acropolis.
I am not sure why you want to visit the Benaki Museum ( which is an excellent Museum). From your itinerary it seems that this is your first time to Athens.
You could visit the National Archaeological Museum instead which is the most important Museum of it's kind in the world.
( i hope that by June it will have longer opening hours .
Your 3rd day looks Ok, just start with the Acropolis in the early morning. when it is more quiet and then continue to the New Acropolis Museum
Report Abuse
I loved the national archeological museum. If you don't have much time at least go to the sculpture wing which is filled with wonderful sculptures.

The correct link to the Attikos restaurant is :
( also this website is in Greek but you will see pictures of the amazing view )
Please visit also the official website of the Minstry of Culture with useful information about every Greek Museum, Archaeological site and Museum.
Report Abuse
I second ghattikos and cathies: the National Aarchelogic Museum is one of the best of the world.
Acropolis Museum, Acropolis, Ancient Agora and Thission are all close together, you may save time if you visit them the same day. If you like the Benaki museum, you may also be interested in the Byzantine Museum. And don't forget the Cycladic Museum, it's close to Syntagma.
But first of all, check the opening hours of all these sites:
Nice sandy beaches close to Athens: Varkiza, Vougliagmeni.
Report Abuse
neckervd they won't have any time for all that...
Have a look at their itinerary.
The New Acropolis Museum should best seen together with the Acropolis IMO.
Report Abuse
I hope you can squeeze in the Benaki Museum because it has a comprehensive collection of the history of Greece and is located in a lovely mansion. I don't think you can fit it in before lunch but it depends on how fast you can go through the other planned visits. As the above poster says, the Benaki is near the Byzantine and Cycladic Museums and you might want to visit them too.
Report Abuse
Thanks so much for all the responses.
First, I apologize... I should have mentioned this is not our first trip to Athens. It's actually our fourth. The problem is we usually only spend time in the Plaka area, visit the Acropolis, and spend time with our Greek relatives who live in Athens. We have previously been to the National Archaeological Museum and the New Acropolis Museum. We have been on Mt. Lykavitos and seen the changing of the guard. But we will visit the Acropolis and the New Acropolis Museum again because one member of our group has never been. We have never been to the other sites mentioned -- the Ancient Agora, Temple of Zeus, Benaki Museum.
Re: the BENAKI -- i was torn between this and Cycladic, but somehow settled on the Benaki. Hope that's the right decision, as we don't have time for both.
***I am wondering if there is a good AUDIO GUIDE, or if I should hire a guide to show us the highlights.
Thanks to several of you for all the great links with more informaiton and for the restaurant recommendations.
Clausar --
***where can i get one of those all inclusive 12€ tickets, and does it last for more than one day?
I am so grateful for your input!
Thank you!
Report Abuse
You can buy the combined ticket at the entrance of any of the sites. There you will have two options, either to buy an individual ticket just for this site, or the combined ticket.
I asked the employees at the entrance of the Acropolis how long the combined ticket is valid, they said 4 days.
Between the Benaki and the Goulandris Museum i would chose the first one, as it covers a quite long period of Greek history.
Report Abuse
Dina, the 12 euros you pay to get into the Acropolis is the combined ticket anyway! This is the only site you don't have the choice, it has to be the full ticket. The larger part on it is the Acropolis entrance ticket & attached are the smaller ones that can be used for any of the other sites, one will get torn off as you visit them.
I have joined in with suggestions on your identical thread on TA, but now see you have been up Lykabettus, so do consider Philapappou instead.
The Benaki: It is one of my favourites, I think I've been 6 or 7 times, I love the range of exhibits, especially clothing, the 2 complete rooms laid out & the farming tools, mainly because you don't get these in most other museums.
Report Abuse
As Dina will save the Acropolis for the last day of their Athens stay, she will have to ask for the combined ticket at the entrance of the first site that she will visit.
The New Acropolis Museum has a separate ticket that costs 5 Euros.
Report Abuse
Oops! See what you mean Clausar, if she sticks with itinerary order as it is, then yes, she will have to ask for the full ticket elsewhere
Report Abuse
That's great news about the multi-use ticket.
Sadly, i don't even know where Philapapou hill is -- so i will look that up tonight. thanks so much. it sounds beautiful.
what about the benaki -- is there an audio guide? should i consider hiring a guide?

RB FA 5 years ago
Daniel Thomas rushed just once for six yards in the Dolphins' Week 15 win over the Jaguars.
He played behind Lamar Miller for the second straight week. Thomas was a committee back with Reggie Bush around midseason, but he's being phased out of the offense now. We wonder if the 2011 second-round pick might be cut by the Dolphins this offseason. Thomas has no fantasy value for Week 16 versus Buffalo.

Wayne Kramer to Helm Film About Gangster Pretty Boy Floyd
by Ethan Anderton
June 25, 2010
Source: Risky Biz
Though many crime thrillers are simply slightly different variations on familiar stories about undercover or corrupt cops and the diabolical criminals they pursue, audiences usually can't get enough of them. Recently audiences went back in time with Public Enemies, the period crime thriller about John Dillinger played by Johnny Depp. Now Risky Biz reports that writer/director Wayne Kramer (The Cooler, Running Scared) will bring us the story of another infamous gangster from the past with Pretty Boy Floyd, a crime thriller focusing on Charles Arthur Floyd, a gangster whose crime wave swept across the Midwest in the 20s & 30s.
Written by Kevin Bernhardt, the story follows the criminal who became known as "The Robin Hood of the Cookson Hills" as he committed bank robbery, highway robbery and may have been involved in The Kansas City Massacre, a gunfight that resulted in the death of four police officers. While the death of any person is a tragic loss, especially those brave enough to wear the shield, to call that event a "massacre" kind of screams hyperbole. Either way, the story doesn't set out to glorify the life of crime as Kramer explains his approach:
"My approach is to bring 21st century style and energy to Kevin Bernhardt's meticulously researched screenplay without sacrificing the verisimilitude of the period or over-sensationalizing the characters themselves. At the heart of 'Pretty Boy Floyd' is a great love story about an outlaw on the run who can't stay away from the woman he loves, no matter how destructive the relationship is for both of them -- which ultimately leads to his demise."
Sounds a little too similar to Public Enemies (Channing Tatum portrayed Floyd in that flick), although I was never really sold on the poorly developed romance between Dillinger and Billie Frechette (Marion Cotillard) so maybe Kramer will get a better grasp on the love story. And I'm especially on board if he stays true to his intentions to avoid sensationalism and the glorification of the world of crime. I know an old film professor of mine who just wouldn't be very pleased if I didn't scrutinize a film based around organized crime or the mafia that adhered to all the cliches that usually cause frat boys to put up Scarface posters on their walls.
GoodFellas is one of those movies that approaches the life of crime with realism, complete with all the fear, paranoia and lack of sanity that comes with it. While hoping for a Scorsese caliber film is shooting for the moon, having enjoyed The Cooler quite a bit, I'm interested to see if Kramer can craft a similar film around a famous gangster from the past like Pretty Boy Floyd. After all, there's certainly no happy ending for Floyd anyway since he met his end in 1934 at only 30 years old. Do you guys like the sounds of this project?

What do you like about this page?
I too really like the tree and it's too big for a single page and the pics are too small and should be in color.
What do you dislike about this page?
The pics....too small & b/w with so much other color. Like Brittanie said, the b/w washes them out.
Any other comments?
I will lift the tree....someday. Think a double would work better, maybe crossing the crack with the large tree.

New Everything Everywhere CEO Olaf Swantee confirmed the Orange/T-Mobile joint venture's commitment to increasing the number of Everything Everywhere branded stores as he unveiled a new look management line-up on 1 September.
Swantee said the existing stores had a 25% greater footfall than the singly-branded stores. Customers liked having the choice of two sets of branded products in one location, he said.
Everything Everywhere did not respond immediately to queries regarding plans to rationalise the number of retail outlets.
Swantee said he was waiting for the results of a brand review, expected late next month, before deciding how to rationalise the T-Mobile and Orange brands.
A decision on staff levels and outlets is unlikely before then, Swantee indicated.
The boards of France Telecom and Deutsche Telekom, which own the joint venture, were fully behind that process, he said. 'It's more about execution than about integration now,' he said.
Swantee said the company's priorities now were to grow the number of contract customers and to retain customers.
Everything Everywhere reported in July that the number of contract customers had risen by 236,000, and that two-thirds of its contract customers were on 24-month contracts, up from 42% the year before.
He said Everything Everywhere's 13% churn rate was the lowest in the industry, and he wanted to lower it further.
He aimed to push profitability to 25%, he said. For the first half of 2011, Everything Everywhere reported margins of 20.2% on sales of £682m.

'I think it's destiny' - Paul Pogba anxious to justify world's most expensive player tag
Paul Pogba declared it was his destiny to return to Manchester United after he completed his €100m move from Juventus.
An announcement at 12.20am on Tuesday morning Irish time ended weeks of speculation surrounding Pogba's future, with an MUTV interview not far behind as Pogba was beaming with smiles as he spoke about his United comeback.
Pogba declared he had "no interest" in returning to United after he left the club following a contract dispute that led to his exit in 2012, but his tone has changed now that he is back as the club's new midfield general.
"I think it's destiny, I would say it's destiny," said Pogba in his first interview after he rejoined United.
"It looks like I went for a holiday and I came back home. I was meant to come back here. I feel this. I always had this United thing in my heart and that's why I came back. I'm happy, just happy.
"First my mum told me I would come back here and I told her, 'You never know, you'll see.' For myself as well it's a big challenge too, just to come back to where I came from, where I grew up, where I started. I didn't finish what I started here so I think I came here to finish it.
"There's no words, to be honest, there's no words I just came back to Carrington (United's training ground). It was like I'd just come back home. I just went for a holiday, looks like I went for a holiday. I've come back home, I'm happy and I see everyone, the same persons. It's just a great feeling, to be honest."
Pogba went on to claim he now intends to prove his worth as the world's most expensive player, as he prepares to make his second Premier League debut for United under the management of Jose Mourinho.
"The thing with me is I only think about the pitch. I want to do great, I want to be one of the best, I want to win titles, I want to achieve things and that's all," he continued. "That's why I came here, just to do this, to become one of the best and to win titles because I know this club has to win titles.
"This club is created to win titles, to win things, to win big things. I just focus on this and that's it. I'm just ready to go and work on that and just kill it."
Pogba added that he is returning to United as a better player, with the knowledge gained from his four years in Italy standing him in good stead for his second spell as a United player.
"I'm more experienced, I've won titles at Juventus. I've been playing with big players like when I started at Man United, of course," he added.
"I went to play somewhere else and I came back, I would say, as a person, as an adult. I would say with experience, with more games, so I think that's the difference."
Pogba will train with his United team-mates for the first time on Tuesday, with Mourinho set to decide whether he will play some role in Sunday's Premier League opener against Bournemouth.

Keynote speaker David Dockery, president of Union University in Jackson, Tenn., challenged the new leader to develop the characteristics the post would require.
HLGU Emeritus President Woodrow Burt was unable to attend, instead, sending a video greeting. Two former presidents, Larry Lewis, who served from 1981-1987, and Paul Brown, who had the position from 1987-1994, were present. Executive Director John Yeats represented the Missouri Baptist Convention, to which the institution relates.
Hannibal Mayor Roy Hark presented a proclamation, as did State Rep. Lindell Shumake (R-Hannibal) on behalf of the Missouri House. Shumake graduated in 1974, when HLGU was a two-year college.
A native of Asheville, N.C., Allen was senior vice president for administration and chief administrative officer for Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City until assuming the HLGU presidency on June 25.
He was an administrator at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary from 1993-2007, first as director of admissions and student recruitment, and then as assistant vice president for institutional advancement. He stepped up into the vice president post in 2005.
He is co-author of a chapter in Answering the Call: Examining God's Call to Christian Service, published by Midwestern. He also had articles published in The Midwestern, the seminary's journal, and taught courses.
His pastoral experience includes serving as pastor of Falls Baptist Church in Wake Forest, N.C., and as interim pastor for several North Carolina congregations.
Allen earned an undergraduate degree in history and religion from Duke University, where he also played football. He completed a master of divinity degree with biblical languages and a master of theology degree in ethics at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, and a doctor of education degree in higher education administration at North Carolina State University.
Allen's wife, Stacy, holds a bachelor of arts degree in English, a master of divinity and a master of arts degree in counseling. The couple has five children.

LONDON, July 28 (UPI) -- Nicole Kidman plans to live in London while filming "The Golden Compass," the first film for the Oscar-winning actress since she was married last month.
Kidman will be joined in England by her new husband, country music singer Keith Urban, when filming on the fantasy film begins in September, the Daily Mail reported.
"Compass" is based on the first book of author Phillip Pullman's "His Dark Materials" trilogy and will feature Kidman as a sinister socialite named Mrs. Coulter.
Representatives for the "Bewitched" actress spent the last two months working on the specifics of her contract, since director Chris Weitz and his fellow filmmakers hoped to have all the film's actors sign on for all three parts of the trilogy.
Joining Kidman on the London set will be young actress Dakota Blue Richards, who plays the film's heroine, British stage actress Clare Higgins, and -- possibly -- "The Da Vinci Code" actor Paul Bethany, the Mail said.

Defense officials expect "increasing pressure" in coming months to trim the Pentagon's $553 billion 2012 spending request, driven in part by an expected cut to its 2011 budget.
Hours after the House Appropriations Committee unveiled a $515 billion 2011 defense spending measure, Air Force Secretary Michael Donley acknowledged Tuesday that "a smaller baseline for 2011" will affect how much lawmakers give the Pentagon in 2012.
Defense officials "hope the 2011 budget" — which could be approved as soon as this week — "will help Congress know more about what 2012 will look like," Donley said during a breakfast sponsored by the Center for Media and Security.
The House Appropriations Committee on Monday provided a major clue to the size of the Pentagon's 2011 budget when it unveiled a $515 billion defense spending measure that could be approved this week along with a one-week stopgap for the rest of the federal government.
The appropriators are proposing a 2.9 percent cut from the Pentagon's base budget request of $549 billion for 2011.
The House panel's proposal would be a setback for Gates, who had pushed for $540 billion.
Since last October, the Defense Department — like other federal entities — has been funded at 2010 levels. In a statement, the Appropriations Committee noted its proposed 2011 defense budget would be a 1.5 percent increase over the 2010 funding level.
"This common-sense funding level strikes a balance between the need for valid reductions and the requirements of our military without jeopardizing our national defense or the protection of our troops," the committee statement said.
Rep. Buck McKeon (R-Calif.), the House Armed Services Committee chairman, told reporters Monday that House leaders have "promised" him they will bring a full-year 2011 Pentagon spending bill to the floor.
House Budget Committee Chairman Paul RyanPaul RyanGOP rep: Virginia defeat 'a referendum' on Trump administration After Texas shooting, lawmakers question whether military has systemic reporting problem Pence: Praying 'takes nothing away' from trying to figure out causes behind mass shooting MORE (R- Wis.) on Tuesday rolled out his much-anticipated 2012 federal budget, which proposes a $553 billion Pentagon budget. That is the same amount requested by the Obama administration.
"This budget rejects proposals to make deep, across-the-board cuts in funding for national defense," states Ryan's budget. "Instead, it reflects the $178 billion in savings identified by Defense Secretary Robert Gates." Around $78 billion of those "savings" was used by the administration for deficit-reduction efforts.
There are increasing signs that the House and Senate will soon send a full 2011 Pentagon spending bill to President Obama, sources say.
But it's not yet a done deal. That leaves Pentagon officials trying to prepare for a government shutdown.
Gates told lawmakers last week that his legal advisers have told him the U.S. military would continue to receive funding for the conflicts in which it is engaged.
Donley on Tuesday told reporters that Air Force and Pentagon officials continue internal deliberations about how they would handle a shutdown.
Under discussion are questions such as just what is an essential employee. Officials also are exploring "what to do with ... civilian and military personnel," Donley said.

On this trip I've eaten a good deal more fast food than I am used to. Foil wrapped burgers, small yogurt cups, ice cream bars in shrink wrap, ice cream bars in loose plastic wrappers, ice cream bars in loose foil wrappers, ice cream bars in composite wrappers, ice cream bars on sticks without wrappers, and ice cream sandwiches in folded foil wrappers, to name a few examples.
The result is that we often find ourselves stumped when it comes to deciding if the wrappers are recyclable. Ice-cream-bar packaging is just the tip of the iceberg. PET bottles, newspapers, and the other obviously recyclable items are accompanied by a great host of confusing little bits and pieces.
Ruby Reusable makes art out of pieces like these (bread bag clips, straw wrappers, straws themselves, twist ties, foil peel-off lids, with the list continuing on into a debris-laden infinity). But the point here is that recycling is confusing.
Looking for a little clarity, we visited with Nina Goodrich and Anne Bedarf, from GreenBlue, in Charlottesville, Virginia. GreenBlue is a non-profit that aims to help businesses be more sustainable.
One of GreenBlue's major projects has been to develop a recyclability reference called How2Recycle. Anne and Nina hope to solve some of the confusion around recycling with a standardized symbol that lets consumers know how to recycle the different components of a package.
Anne and Nina told us that their research has found that most consumers don't really know how to recycle the different parts of the packages they collect through their daily lives. You buy a box of cereal and you understand that you can put the box in the recycle bin, but what about the bag inside? Or, say you have an ice cream bar: the popsicle stick is wood and that's compostable, but what about the plastic wrapper it comes in?
The How2Recycle labels are intended to provide consumers with easy guidance as to how to recycle the items. In general, items bearing the Widely Recycled label can be placed in most recycle bins.
Businesses interested in placing the label on their products sign a license agreement with GreenBlue and pay a flat annual fee based on company size. GreenBlue conducts an analysis of their packaging and helps determine what labels are appropriate. GreenBlue has some pretty big supporters; companies like Costco, Target, ConAgra, Best Buy, and REI use the How2Recycle label.
Consumer confusion is clearly a problem for most recycling ventures. When we visited a recycling facility, the manager told us his biggest challenge was removing all the materials that cannot be recycled from the materials he has markets for. Recyclables increase in value when they are homogenous, clean, and come in large quantities.
Providing consumers with an easy to use system of directions not only increases the value of the products recycling facilities produce, but also reduces sorting expenses. We'll have to wait to see if GreenBlue's labels will catch on and if they will be capable of dispelling the confusion around the recyclability of the many materials used in packaging.

People struggle with MLM because they have no clue How To Recruit People.
If you want to know how to recruit more people to your business read this blog post.
There are 2 things you need to learn if you want to recruit more people to your network marketing business.
1. Learn how to ask better questions.
2. Learn how to generate leads online.
When you learn only these 2 things you will recruit more people. Many people think that selling products or recruiting is all about the Perfect pitch or super cool ads. Actually, it's not the case. If you want to sell more product and if you want to recruit more people you need to know how to ask better questions.
You don't sell products or business opportunity because it's cool and because it has a nice package. You can sell and recruit more by helping people solve their problems.
By asking better questions you find out what your prospects problems are and by providing a solution you sell your products or recruit them to your network marketing business.
Many people misunderstand lead generation by saying "I don't see people as a number. My business must be more personal". I do agree that people are not just a number to make a sell, but the question is "How are you gonna sell or recruit when you reach out all of your Warm market?". The powerful lead generation should work like this:
1. Generate Leads
2. Build a relationship with leads
3. Find their problems and provide a solution.
There are so many ways to generate leads online where you can generate leads Daily. Let me ask you this question:
What if you could have 20 people coming to you daily asking about your product or business opportunity? How would this impact your business?
Active prospecting where you reach out to people and talk about your amazing company is very important and no matter what you should keep doing it but it will be much easier to talk to someone who is already interested in business than just a random person from facebook or other social media right?
I connect with other entrepreneurs and network marketers on social media mostly to just build connections and to build relationships because I get leads daily from my blog and other sources. Even if you don't have a blog you still can generate leads daily, just don't overcomplicate the process.
You can watch Free Training Video about Lead Generation where you can learn exactly how to get 50+ Leads Daily.

IT WAS a decade of contrasts - the golden age of Hollywood and the Great Depression, an inter-war period when the whole world was changing.
The 1930s was also a time when more dream homes were constructed than have been built in any decade since. Many people became home-owners for the first time and four million houses were built during this building boom.
Dr Greg Stevenson, author of The 1930s Home said, "This was a fascinating decade of contrasts. The technological revolution, with wirelesses in most homes, and millions going to the cinema every week meant that people, even in remote rural areas, knew what the fashions of London, Paris and New York were. Those with money could experiment in the modern way of living."
These new homes adopted varied architectural styles, from sleek modernist villas to "Tudorbethan" semi-detached houses, and a host that blended the traditional and modern.
Dr Stevenson said, "Semi-detached houses became very fashionable, sometimes even more so than detached houses. Mortgages were widely available for the first time and furnishings were available on hire purchase.
"Department stores were flourishing and many people were buying their own furniture for the first time. In these stores they would see room settings with all the furniture laid out. You could choose anything from a mock Elizabethan or space-age modern interior."
Not only were these new homes different in that they were designed to house the changing family, but they also provided a variety of fantasy interiors and revolutionary technologies for their new owners. Many young couples moving into their newly built home in the 1930s were experiencing a new way of living, with all-electric kitchens, plumbed-in bathrooms and often a garden of their own.
"On the one hand we have an awful Depression in the industrial valleys of South Wales, and yet the rich were spending thousands on building flat-roofed modernist villas in coastal areas such as Borth, Barry and Baglan," said Greg.
The fixtures and fittings installed in 1930s homes were usually designed to complement the architectural style of the property, be it modern or traditional. For example, cast iron door furniture that had changed little in style since 1900 was still being fitted on traditional homes, yet modern styled houses were more likely to boast angular chromed latches and handles that reflected contemporary fashions.
Fireplaces on the ground floor of most new homes of the 1930s were still coal, and were typically fitted either with a modern tile or traditional oak surround.
Much thought was given to the way kitchens were laid out, with minimal walking distance between preparation, cooking and washing areas. As refrigerators were an expensive luxury item a larder would usually be provided.
For many people having a plumbed in bath and toilet indoors was a new luxury.
But although modern and Art Deco styles were available, most people hankered after the more traditional designs and opted for fake oak timbering in the living room and even fake oak wallpaper. Images of country cottages became popular on ceramics like Clarice Cliff's designs.
A small minority did go against the trend and constructed some fine examples of villas based on the latest continental designs. The remains of these can be seen in towns across Wales.
"I think the 1930s style is more popular than ever now. For years people have been ripping out original tiled fireplaces and changing the windows, and it is only recently that we have realised what we have lost. There is actually something quite wonderful about 1930s houses.
"I wrote The 1930s Home because although there are many books on great Art Deco houses there is very little on the modest 1930s home. Four million of these houses were built, and in many ways they still represent the typical British home. We may have failed to embrace modernism, but the romantic styling of our suburban semis will always provide the most homely of homes - a 'country cottage' with all mod cons."

"Most Nurses Don't Care Anymore"
About: University Hospital Aintree University Hospital Aintree Liverpool L9 7AL
Posted via NHS Choices
Anything else?
I say most, as some do care. But the majority have little interest in the patient as a person. My father was at one point left waiting to see a doctor, without being offered food, drink or even slippers for his cold feet!
On another ward, he was given something called a "flip flow" (I think), without being accessed if he could manage it himself. (He couldn't). He has poor mobility in his hands, and nobody noticed this. Again on this ward he was left sitting, with bare legs and no slippers. I had to ask for a blanket to cover his legs. We eventually managed to buy him some slippers (he didn't own a pair).
Also after soiling himself one night his dirty pjs had been put in a plastic bag in his locker ! Only to be discovered by my mother 2 days later ! Why weren't they taken away and either cleaned or burned, why weren't we informed that they were there (if we were meant to take them away). My mother mentioned to the nurse that maybe the locker would need a thorough cleaning, the nurse said "I suppose it does ". ! I could go on and on. But the main point I want to get across is that the nurses do not really care about people anymore. It is just a job. Avoid going into this hospital if at all possible, I know you don't have much choice. Think about taking out private health insurance. Its got me thinking thats for sure.
Response from University Hospital Aintree 4 years ago
We're very sorry to hear details of your father's experience, which is certainly not what we would expect our hospital to offer patients. We'd like to look into this further for you, but we'll need more details - could you please contact our Customer Services team at firstname.lastname@example.com or call them directly on 0151 529 3287

Music: The Look of Love: The Burt Bacharach Collection
You never hear that word anymore, do you? Hearth. But it sounds nice, like home. My latest CLP blog post on Eleventh Stack describes some books that evoke the comforts of home, one of my favorite places.
"I've always been the kind of person who enjoys staying home instead of traveling or going out a lot. This is why I've taken especially great care to make my home as vacation-like and comfortable as possible (slip-covered sofa, linen sheets, fluffy towels, etc.) with minimal possessions and clutter. I enjoy cooking, listening to music, reading, and writing–all activities conducive to a quiet, home environment. " Read more here.
