Discharged from service one month in due to chronic hay fever ("That's the worst kind!"), wimpy Marine Eddie Bracken is too ashamed to face the family - - especially as Dad died in World War One. Then a group of Guadalcanal vets usher him back home, where he's touted not only as a hero but as a frontrunner for mayor... You have to hand it to studio-era legend Preston Sturges: he sunk his satirist's scalpel into apple-pie patriotism while the US was at war and got Oscar-nommed (in the screenplay category) for his trouble. Maybe this doesn't quite hit the heights of The Lady Eve or Sullivan's Travels, but it's still thoroughbred Sturges, a whirlwind of whipsmart badinage and delicious slapstick (check out the glorious, tuneless chaos of the homecoming parade). Great turns, too, with the sheepishly sympathetic Bracken, love interest Ella Raines and a round-up of the director's regulars all battling for the honours.

Google Takes First Big Bite Into Rich Snippet Search With Recipes
Google worked with some of the larger providers of recipes — AllRecipes.com, Food Network, Epicurious and BettyCrocker.com content will be visible at launch — to ensure they were coding their content appropriately to be indexed. The new recipe search is likely to be both a boon and a curse for recipe sites — it allows people to more easily find the recipes they are looking for, but it may minimize the need to search or page through the sites themselves, potentially reducing pageviews on sites selling ad impressions.
The search giant turned its attention to recipes, Menzel said, because of the surprisingly large volume of searches — 1% — that seem to be aimed at finding recipes. "That's quite a large number of queries, so we were inspired to make that better," he added.
I wonder how this will affect the search return positions of our clients' recipes. Must make sure every recipe is properly coded.
I like food. I like data. This is making me so excited it's almost indecent. Yes, I get my jollies in strange ways.

Homemade Herbal Bath Salts | Henry Happened
Unfortunately, I don't have a bath in my house. Bummer. But my mum and dad have a hugebath at home and so I like to buy/make things to use when I go back for visits. Bath salts are great because they are cheap to make in bulk so you don't feel guilty for throwing big handfuls in! You can get Epsom, kosher and sea salt at most health food stores and even sometimes at the supermarket (though it will probably be much more expensive). When adding your scents, be careful not to go too overboard as it can make your bath slippery. And if you're going to add things like lavender, rose petals, etc. it may be wise to scoop them out before you let your bath out so you don't clog your system! But back to the nice stuff. Lavender is great for calming, as is chamomile. There is a absolutely amazing chart here on different essential oils, their properties, whether they are uplifting, calming, etc, even the best oils to combine with others. Try making some extra jars for gifts and you'll be popular forever!

Use a variety of colorful tomatoes, including red, yellow, orange, and green, to make this elegant dish more visually appealing. Serve as an appetizer or side dish, or pair it with a chilled soup, salad, and wine for a light meal.
Cooking Light JULY 2008
1. Preheat oven to 375°.
2. Coat 4 (6-ounce) custard cups or ramekins with cooking spray. Place 3 tablespoons flour in a medium bowl. Gradually add milk to bowl, stirring constantly with a whisk until blended. Add egg whites and eggs; stir well. Add Parmigiano-Reggiano, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper; stir well. Divide mixture evenly among prepared custard cups. Place custard cups in a 9-inch square baking pan; add hot water to the pan to a depth of 1 inch. Bake at 375° for 25 minutes or until puffy and set.
3. Combine tomato, dash of salt, and dash of pepper in a medium bowl. Loosen edges of flans with a knife or rubber spatula. Place a plate, upside down, on top of each cup; invert onto plates. Spoon 1/2 cup tomato mixture over each flan. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon basil.
Wine note: These scrumptious flans take much of their savoriness from the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Because the cheese has a nutty/salty flavor, it pairs well with an earthy light red. Traditionally, Chianti would fill this bill, but for a more modern twist, try a California pinot noir instead. Pinot is an all-around winner with most hard cheeses. A favorite: Saintsbury 2006 Pinot Noir from Carneros, California, about $35. —Karen MacNeil

Dessert Ideas
- gridder Jan 17, 2007 09:29 PM
I'm looking for a clever, low-fuss dessert (for 6 adults and 3 kids) to serve with homemade anise-almond biscotti that I make. The biscotti is chunky and substantial, but I was looking for something to serve with it. For dinner we are having an artichoke/mushroom lasagne and an astringent-y salad of some sort. Zabaglione seems a little fussy, and I'd prefer not to use raw eggs. I do happen to have a big honkin' bottle of Grand Marnier, if that sounds like something that could go in something.
Any ideas?
re: Andiereid
just what i was thinking as you posted it! Some good vanilla ice cream with grand marnier over top, and biscotti, for the kids, maybe crumble the biscotti onto the ice cream and leave off the Grand Marnier.
This Black Bottom Cappicino is really good. Serve it up in coffee cups with saucers and a biscotti on the side. It is fun too.
re: gridder
Have mercy, no! That would be great! Especially with homemade marshmallows! Just as good as ice cream!
Your biscotti sound wonderful - why not offer a very simple accompaniment like macerated fruit?
While you're assembling it, just set some fruit aside for the children then macerate the cut fruits in a few tablespoons of Grand Marnier combined with a little vanilla and honey. Citrus supremes are beautiful this way, or if you don't have the patience just peel your oranges with a knife and slice horizontally. We're able to get excellent sweet strawberries at our produce market and they are great this way. You can also use melon, peaches, blueberries, pineapple or really whatever looks good at the market.
I would suggest that you mix this up just before your guests arrive so that it will have enough (but not too much!) time to macerate.
re: gridder
Supremes are basically citrus segments with the membrane removed. I found the following blog that gives a nice demo to explain the technique.
How about orange sorbet with grand marnier? There's a recipe at the bottom for blood orange sorbet but the one right before sounds just up your alley because it's served w/ almond biscotti.
re: flipss
Chocolate mousse with Grand Marnier!
I second Kater about the citrus and will add that I always get raves from an embarrassingly simple dessert: a big bowl of segmented grapefruit. It's that nobody nowadays goes to the trouble so people perceive this as very special. It's not that much of a hassle---just put on some good music and use a sharp serrated knife to peel the grapefruit and remove all the membrane, trying to keep segments as intact as you can. The super-sweet Texas grapefruit are in season now, the Ruby Reds which don't even need sugar but of course you may want to sweeten according to your taste. Also, if your group includes children as well as adults, keep the liqueur on the side to be added by grownups. I remember the breakfast buffet at a very luxurious hotel in Argentina where perfect sweet pink grapefruit segments were piled in champagne glasses: really, really nice.
re: foiegras
If you're looking chocolate pudding, this is the best and easiest I've found - I swear it is the miracle dessert!
4 oz bittersweet chocolate, chopped (best if you use high-quality
chocolate - callebaut or ghiradelli)
1/2 cup sugar
2 tbsp corn starch
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 1/3 cup milk
1 tbsp butter
1/4 tsp vanilla
Combine all ingredients in a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat.
Stir occasionally until chocolate starts to melt, then use a whisk to
combine. Bring to a boil, whisking occasionally, and reduce heat to
low. Let boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat, whisk in butter and
vanilla. Serves 4.

It was a chaotic scene along Savannah's River Street over the weekend. Crews searched the waters for a man who reportedly jumped in, trying to end his life.
It turns out, the call was made up. Savannah- Chatham Metropolitan Police said false reports like these can potentially cost the city more than $10,000.
The SCMPD said there was a whole entourage looking for a man who had supposedly jumped into the river, including the Coast Guard, Savannah firefighters and EMS. They had helicopters in the air and boats in the water for about an hour and a half.
Police discovered that whoever made the 911 call was lying. SCMPD wants to remind people that making a false report and lying to police is a crime, especially in similar situations with a lot of rescue crews, because it could potentially jeopardize other real emergencies.
"We had nine officers who were out of position. If something happened in their beats or where they were supposed to be patrolling, then they would not have been around," said SCMPD PIO Julian Miller. "This means we would then have to bring someone from another location which adds to the response time."
Police said they are still investigating and trying to figure out who made the call.
They said they will continue to respond to all calls as if they are real, but if they turn out false, someone could face charges.

Getting the right point and shoot is as simple as determering what features pique your interest. After that, it's a question of finding a camera that can actually capture a solid image; good color, tones, and clarity are just some of the things to look for. Since we haven't had a hands on with Panasonic's DMC-SZ5, we're just gonna go ahead and assume it will meet the photographic needs of the general consumer market.
That being said, the SZ5 sports a 10x optical zoom, a 14.1-megapixel sensor, a 25mm ultra wide-angle LEICA DC VARIO-ELMAR lens, Panasonic's image processing engine Venus, intelligent iA, auto retouch, and probably a few other options to satiate those looking to take their photography beyond a simple point and click approach. But those features are hardly the reason we're all gitty about this point and shoot camera. The SZ5 rocks built-in WiFi so you can connect it directly to a smartphone running their compatible app. And while you'll surely be able to upload pics to the net on the fly, the real takeway here is that with the aforementioned Panasonic app you can control the SZ5 from across the room. So once you set up the SZ5 for a shot, you can preview the photo on your iPhone and then activate the camera's shutter. The Panasonic SZ5 also includes a 3-inch LCD, but keep in mind there is no viewfinder, and it can only records 720p video at 30fps.
Panasonic hasn't said when the SZ5 will ship, or for how much. But we do know it will be available in black or silver when it does.

You don't have a big pickup to tow your 6,000 lb. gooseneck trailer. A little careful, well thought out engineering can solve your problem.
Wouldn't you love to see how the trip went? Good chance he ended up doing some unintended off roading somewhere.
She's hitched up and ready to roll! Amazing how the extra weight smoothes out the ride. Needed to air up the rear tires a bit ('bout 160 psi).
Added some super heavy-duty chain for extra support on the tailgate, (note the 'Heavy-Duty 'S' hooks to attach the chain) Also paid-up for some BIG Number 5/16 sheet metal screws to attach the Reese hitch frame to the tailgate. Likely two more through the carpet into the floor pan inside. Yep, probably overkill, but didn't want the possibility of having an axerdent.
Most of the time was spent on the front porch whittling down that MASSIVE solid pine 4x4 to fit precisely down into the hole in the ball mount receiver.
Note also - The 14''x14'' piece of 3/8'' plywood on the underside of the tailgate to distribute the load more evenly and beef up that tailgate support.
The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.

I was given free samples by my stylist/colorist. I have baby fine hair that I have colored and highlighted in various shades of red and blonde every 2-3 months. This stuff is great! I started out using the volumizing shampoo and conditioner. I felt like I needed a little more moisture, so I switched to the moisturizing shampoo with the volumeizing conditioner and that was the perfect combo for me. Pure Beauty was having their liter sale, so I purchased a liter of each the shampoo and conditioner for $35 each--significatly cheaper than buying the regular bottles. Plus, you only need the smallest amount of product. I am forever in my stylists debt!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Just like the shampoo, I'm lovin' this conditioner! Boosts my hair and protects my color. I don't need much of either the 'poo or condtioner for it to work its magic for me. Love dis stuff!!!
Love. Pureology. Love it. I bought a liter apiece of the Volume shampoo and conditioner on EBay without ever having tried it, since I'd heard such raves, and I've not been disappointed. This conditioner has a lovely creamy texture, a pleasant floral scent, and makes my hair look great. What else do I want? Love it.
I purchased this conditioner (along with the matching shampoo) after I had my hair highlighted blond last week. The 250ml bottle costed $21.95 Canadian; my issue is that this bottle contains less product than the shampoo but still costs the same. For this reason, I'm trying to use as little conditioner as possible because I don't want to run out before I run out of shampoo. This is a pretty good conditioner; it is very light for my fine, thin, shoulder-length hair. I actually use this before I shampoo so I can have as much volume as possible; my hair is still conditioned and not dry at all when I do this. Would recommend this product in conjuction with the shampoo.
More reviews by want2agegracefully
Great volumizing conditioner, doesn't weigh hair down. (The corresponding shampoo is wonderful too!) Cost is high but it's worth it. Also tried their hydrate shampoo and conditioner, which were great as well. But I can see a noticable difference when using the volumizing line so I've stuck with that. I have long, slightly layered, dark brown color treated hair and this line gives it bounce & shine, feels really soft. Have tried a very small sample of their new Nanoworks shampoo and conditioner line (only had enough for two washes) and loved the results and fragrance so I'm working myself up to buy the bottles. Can you say cha'ching?!? But nothing beats feeling good about your hair so I'll spend the $$$.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is absolutely the best line I have ever tried in my life, and I have tried all of the salon brands and drugstore brands. Every one of these products is very concentrated, smells good and work well. You only need a tiny bit, about a nickel size of the shampoo. (Shampoo twice for best results.) For the conditioner, I only use about the size of a quarter. These shampoos and conditioners will feel totally different than the regular shampoos and conditioners. The shampoos dont have any sulfates in them, so they dont foam up like laundry detergent, because that is all sulfates are. The conditioners are not also loaded with silicones, so they dont feel as slippery, which is great because then the silicones dont build up in your hair. The products smell very natural. Some of the products take some getting use to, but it is well worth the results. I have tried the volume shampoo and conditioner, the hydrating shampoo and conditioner, reconstructor, colormax leave-in conditioner, shinemax and shine & control. I cant say which product I like the best because I love them all. Also, with this line, you can mix and match the shampoos and conditioners, and they will still work wonderfully together. I will continue to buy this, as it is like having the best line ever made for your hair. Lastly, dont be scared by the price. Since everything is so concentrated, it lasts a really, really, really long time. Remember you only need a TINY bit of it! Happy shopping :)
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Awesome! I work in a salon and have tried just about evey conditioner- Pureology is by FAR one of the best! It smells great, it's sulfate free, this stuff volumizes so well, and leaves my hair feeling like silk without weighing it down! The only downside is the price, but with this stuff a little bit goes a long way! :-) PLUS, my purple and blue highlights LAST AND LAST! :-)
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Eh. I have -length, layered, fine but thick, lowlighted hair and this really did nothing for it--no dramatic volume, no extra shine, no ease in styling--nothing. Definitely not worth the money for me. I suggest trying samples or small sample bottles before springing for this. I'll stick with my Mastey Frehair Light.
I had tried using this product with other shampoos, but it really works best with the Pureology shampoo. This conditioner does not weigh your hair down and it was easy to comb through once I got out of the shower. I love the scent and am very pleased with this product.
I have baby fine hair, that is also very thin. I have highlights put in every 3 months. I tried a sample of the Pureology Volume Shampoo and conditioner, and boy was I hooked! It completely changed the way my hair looks and feels. It not only prolongs my color and keeps it from fading, but it makes my hair so shiny and full of volume. I have tried so many volumizing products over the years, and they all seem to weigh my hair down or make it oily. This product does not do that at all. I went to Ebay and bought the Half Gallon (64oz) size of it for $55, it sounds steep, but the 10oz bottle is $20 so you get so much more for the money, and it lasts me half a year or more. Love it, love it, love it! I have also tried their root lifter and it is AWESOME!!!!

What I learned at summer camp.
Camp GLOW (Girls Leading our World) was an amazing experience of not only educating and empowering girls in a culturally appropriate way, but getting to know individuals on a level that only intense settings can provide.
On the flip-side of writing about all the changes in the campers, which were abundant and heartwarming, I decided to consider the week of Camp GLOW's impact on the staff/adults.
So here are the life lessons of Camp GLOW Grenada 2013:
- Have fun. This was a simple and fully embraced ideology. We were all playful and goofy, laughing often and without hesitation. A crash mat was dragged up to the staff room and one of the directors made a tent so we could all take naps under it. We taped up slightly inappropriate signs to make people smile in the moment when they wanted to cry out of frustration. Cuddling in the tent was encouraged for the sake of that benefit that can only come with kind human touch. This corner of fun was a highlight of the staff room.
- Eat well. The camp food was yummy but rich, and post-adolescent bodies can only take so much fried foods, chips, and cookies. So the directors made sure that fruits and veggies were in the menu daily. And they let us fit in healthy treats in the budget for staff meetings. They even let me help out on an impromptu taco night for the camp.
- Be flexible. This was the attribute that made the camp work fabulously overall. The directors modified things constantly to make the week run smoothly. They gave us breaks as we needed them, offered & took input with genuine attention, and rearranged schedules & activities to accommodate the inevitable last minute changes.
- Shake off the crap. Existing happily in a week long, 24-hour/day camp with 30 teenage girls and 25 adults who are all getting around 4 hours of sleep a night is a feat in and of itself. No one held grudges or stayed upset when the inevitable grumpiness or misunderstanding happened. People changed what they could and accepted what they couldn't: being understanding and adapting in a positive direction.
Camp GLOW 2013 provided empowerment and skills to allow these teenage girls to be more successful in the future… and did the same for the adults thanks to the incredible coordination and hard work of the camp directors, and staff who followed their lead.

Movie News
The Behind the Scenes Pic of the Day says the sun came out last night. He says it sang to him.
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with today's Behind the Scenes Pic!
Today's pic is obviously scanned from a magazine, so apologies in advance to whichever magazine I'm ripping this off from (don't sue me!), but damn is it a cool shot. And I kind of dig the out of a magazine feel. Seeing these awesome images with a big fold crease in the middle of 'em is what kicked off this BTS obsession with me in the first place.
Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters is pure magic. There's a melancholy ease to this movie that still has elements of the hungry Spielberg of Duel and Jaws, but with the added element of confidence; the kind only having the biggest film of all time can give you.
So confident he was that George Lucas was sure Close Encounters was going to out-gross Star Wars. As the story goes, Lucas bet a piece of Star Wars' profits against a piece of Close Encounter's profits that Star Wars would lose in the box office race of the two sci-fi films. We know how that turned out, but I bet you Spielberg was never happier to be out-performed before or since.
Anyway, happy Sunday and I hope you guy enjoy this magazine scan look at the climactic sequence of Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
Thanks to reader John Brown for sending the image along. Click for a nice big version! Enjoy!
Tomorrow's Behind the Scenes Pic is great at creating difficult situations.

Quint...re: JAWS anecdote
by justmyluck
I was at a local video retailer this weekend and they were playing JAWS on the store monitors. Some of the customers (well, the younger dudes) had hung around to watch. When Quint finally gets gobbled by Bruce, every single guy (except me) burst out in peels of laughter, and afterward commented to each other how even CGI couldn't save it. I suddenly realized that to today's audiences that moment is the equivalent of Bela Lugosi wrestling the rubber Octopus. So, I left, depressed, but with fond with memories of glorious rubber which once held audiences in sheer terror.

I still have that 'graphic novel', actually called a PHOTONOVEL, with the 400+ color frame enlargements (the spine is toast and all the pages are loose). Also have a CE3K adaption comic (and that one's cover is also toast). I had a 'making of' magazine, but it was mostly printed on newsprint and eventually got 'that smell', so I tossed it out. Though, I still have the 12-inch soundtrack vinyl with the 45 single of JW's main theme in a disco version..woo!

I've actually still got both books somewhere at my parent's place, along with my Makings Of Superman: The Movie, the 70s remake of King Kong, Dune and many others. All pretty in-depth from the days before tie-ins were just marketing cash grabs. I actually think they're all still in pretty good condition so I'll have to dig them out. I'd heard rumors of other photo novels but never actually saw any of them. My 5 year old self had always dreamed of a Raiders of the Lost Ark one.

I love this movie...
by tang126
It, along with a couple of others, is on my yearly "sit down and watch again" cycle. It's just amazing and captures a time and place so well. I love the humor (Dreyfuss has never been better) and the slow build throughout. Just a wonderful, enjoyable movie. For some reason, I've never really delved into the backstory or making of this movie like I have all my other favorites. So I honestly know next-to-nothing about any behind-the-scenes stuff or "making of" tidbits surrounding this movie. Maybe I'll just keep it that way so it's always fresh and unspoiled for me, and I only know what I see on the screen. Novel concept, huh? If Spielberg only made this and "Jaws", he'd be forever known and admired. Lucky for us, he had a "few more" in him. ;) And still does, IMO.

Photonovels were the bomb in the 70's!
by ufoclub1977
You had Close Encounters, Invasion of the Body Snatchers... and you had that deluxe large serious one for ALIEN. Was there one for Grease? video cassette players and rental movies becoming mainstream in the early 80's negated the need for photo-novels. But what about the little super-8 hand cranked viewers for kids!?? Those were so cool. They had ALIEN.

Spielberg's "War of The Worlds"
by SutureSelf

Just last night, Spielberg's "War of The Worlds" was on television. It was the first time I'd seen what I believe Spielberg described as his anti-Close Encounters since its theatrical run. I found myself absolutely engrossed in it, despite its being frequently and frustratingly broken by commercial breaks that seemed longer than the movie itself.

 I was so taken by how much better it was than than I'd remembered it being at first viewing that I looked up the Oscar nominees for 2006 (for movies released in 2005) to see whether Spielberg had garnered a Director's nomination. Interestingly, he had, but for "Munich." "War of The Worlds," however, has so many imaginative, stunning and virtuosic sequences, that the brilliance of that movie's direction can hardly be overstated.

From the emergence of the tripods sequence - in which rumblings give way to cracks in the street and escalate to extreme earthquake convulsions in the very fabric of the city and group curiosity becomes unease and then awe and finally unbridled panic as wholesale death spew from above - to the escape-from-the-city sequence, where the camera follows the minivan from above, swooping all around, paralleling its movement from the side, settling in in front of the vehicle for a time and finally soaring off in one of the most giddily exhilarating camera movements in all of cinema - to the extended basement sequence where Spielberg reprises his raptor-in-the-kitchen scene from "Jurassic Park," but this time elevating the sense of dread, confining it to the claustrophobic dank rather than the gleaming antisepsis of a well-lit kitchen - to the holding-basket sequence where Tom Cruise's Ray, grenades in hand, is pulled into an alien sphincter, this movie is a non-stop demonstration of absolute mastery. Even the more minor sequences - the plane crash, the flaming train, the ferry attack - are accomplished with such consummate skill and apparent effortlessness that that perhaps we've simply taken them for granted.

In addition to "Munich," the other Director nominees for that year were Bennett Miller for "Capote," Paul Haggis for"Crash," George Clooney (!) for "Good Night, and Good Luck" and the winner, Ang Lee for "Brokeback Mountain." Is there anyone in the AICN audience who, with the benefit of six-years' hindsight, would defend the superiority of all these directorial efforts above that of Spielberg for "War of The Worlds?" Of any of them?

bieber_fett & ufoclub1977 re: Fotonovels
by justmyluck
How many times does one get to discuss FOTONOVELS - the geeky sugar rush before home video?? :) I have mine all stored together, so this is easy to list: FOTONOVELS (4x7"): - CE3K/THE LORD OF THE RINGS/INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS/NIGHTWING/BUCK ROGERS (1979) BUCK ROGERS is unique because it is the only one with an order form for more FOTONOVELS (buy 3, get 1 free!): - GREASE/HEAVEN CAN WAIT/REVENGE OF THE PINK PANTHER/LOVE AT FIRST BITE/HAIR/THE CHAMP/ICE CASTLES/ROCKY I &II NIGHTWING is only interesting because there is a sticker to credit three screenwriters, when they had only credited one (lucky them). PHOTOSTORY (4x7"): These, like the MOVIE NOVEL, seem to have been shepherded by Richard J. Anobile: - BATTLESTAR GALACTICA/STAR TREK:TMP/STAR TREK II ST:TMP is probably the best-looking off all, and I must have thought so then, because there's two copies. The flip-side is STII, which seems to be the end of the line with no color, horrible exposure and a few images upside down. THE MOVIE NOVEL (8.5x11"): These are Anobile's over-sized versions: ALIEN OUTLAND Home video killed these frame-enlargement books swiftly. I think the only other type of frame capture books I picked-up in later years were for AKIRA and BATTLESHIP POTEMKIN. Happy hunting! --- ufoclub1977, I also loved those 8mm endless-loop cartridges that went in the crank-able viewers. I remember I had a STAR WARS, STAR TREK and Disney's LONESOME GHOSTS. For me, those loops broke very quickly - but at least they were designed to be cheap enough for kids to blow their allowance on.

My kids are 11 and 2 or 3 years ago I began introducing them to the movies of my childhood. We started with Ghostbusters and moved on to Jaws. Now whenever they have a sleep-over party, Jaws is the first movie they and their mates put on. They don't care about the effects, they just love the movie and get the same chills I did when I first saw it. Not all kids are the same.

War of the Worlds
by Tomarru
Theres just something about it that feels off, hollow, an inability to make you care perhaps. It's such a small movie and follows a set of the least likeable characters along their path to survival and manages to not have a single one of them killed off (kid runs off over the hill into battle cause he has ADD and somehow appears alive at the end all safe and sound). The set pieces are stunning, they are the saving grace of the movie, and the direction is unquestioned. The sound design is very well done aswell, but it is a purely technical movie, anything else is missing. It really feels like the thing was put together in a matter of weeks with the first script they found. It really needed to be a much grander experience, the characters needed to suffer and they needed to find a better ending, sure keep the "sick" angle, but don't have it happen in 3 seconds with no warning.

Wow..that brings back memories. I remember when the first ST photnovel was released; I thought that was the coolest thing ever. Pocket Books released 12 books from the TV series all in full color. By the time they got to TWOK, they were just trying to cash in on the ST name. If I remember correctly, the official reason for TWOK being in b&w was that Pocket didn't want to spend the extra money for color. One of my favorite photonovels: the pilot for "The Incredible Hulk" TV show. I had always hoped they would release more episodes from the show, but they didn't.

by jawsfan
SS did NOT want to shoot footage inside the mothership for the Special Edition. He wanted to go back and re-edit the film for a S.E. release. Columbia Pictures agreed to pay for it if and only if he would shoot new footage of the inside of the mothership. The studio execs were convinced that that was what audiences wanted to see.

by ufoclub1977
Do you mean the story of Star Wars? Cool. Hearing those sound effects and music cues at home was so cool. And it also showed how bad tv shows at the time compared in creative quality. Movies were so exclusive and special back then, because you could not get to that material outside of going to the theater. Those were the days when it took years before the movies were shown on tv. Seeing that HD resolution of a 35mm print (or 70mm) with film grain, and hearing stereo sound with bass rumble was really a magical thing to children in the 70's!

Richard Anobile, the photobook club guy also was an exponent of open marriage. http://www.amazon.com/Beyond-open-marriage-Richard-Anobile/dp/0894790293 Anobile also edited some very nice B & W photobooks for FRANKENSTEIN, the '31 DR. JEKYLL & MR. HYDE, PSYCHO, NINOTCHKA, THE MALTESE FALCON, THE GERERAL, STAGECOACH, CASABLANCA etc.

@ufoclub1977 Yeah, the photo novel guy
by v3d
Richard Anobile edited several photo novels. One day back in the early 80's I was flipping through the 3 or 4 tv channels we had back then, and stumbled on the Phil Donahue show. It was at the part where he was introducing the guests and the guy said his occupation was editing photo novels of movies. I had the ALIEN book and recognized the name. The topic was alternative marriages or swinging. Donahue was moving away from issue and political oriented shows to the more sensational. For those to young to remember Phil, he was the Oprah/Maury of his day, and really started that whole genre of talk show. Anyway, Anobile and his wife were/(are?) swingers and he said he was bisexual.

Excellent story telling
by RogueWarrior65
My favorite elements of the movie are those featuring the scientists investigating the close encounters. There is so much mystery to the scenes. Nothing is explained leaving you wondering about how all this research could be going on without the general public knowing about it. It make you want to go work with them.

The Legend of the Original First Turn Steakhouse
The original First Turn Restaurant and Lounge was founded in 1984 by Rick, Denise and
Lee Hilliard on US 92 near the Daytona Speedway. Based on a Stock Car Racing Theme
and being the home of the Charcoal Sizzlin Steak, soon many drivers and teams became
frequent visitors. In the Garcinia Cambogia fall of 1988 the original First Turn moved to its present location on
US 1 in Allendale, one mile south of the Port Orange Bridge. People from miles around
come to enjoy a famous Sizzlin Steak, a good time and racing memorabilia that has
created a history of early racing in the Daytona Area.

TEAMS: Atlanta Falcons, New York Jets, Arizona Cardinals, San Diego Chargers, New Orleans Saints
The time has come for the Atlanta Falcons to cut veteran RB Michael Turner after this season. After joining the Atlanta Falcons in 2008 as a free agent after backing up LaDainian Tomlinson with the San Diego Chargers, Turner posted a career high 1,699 rushing yards and 17 touchdowns. His career has been on the decline in subsequent years and it's time for the Falcons to part ways with Turner after this season. Turner, soon to be 31, is a big back at 250 pounds, and he now appears to be old and slow. He lacks explosiveness and appears to be indecisive in the backfield before making his cuts. Due to make $5.5 million in 2013, the Falcons need to release Turner and head in a new direction for 2013. Turner looked bad in limited pre-season play and still appears to be struggling this season. Heading into this season, the Falcons coaching staff stated that Turner would be limited on his carries this year in order to keep him fresh heading into post-season play. Turner has suffered a late ...

Lonely Hunter
April 4, 2014 | by Sadie Stein
"That's it!" someone exclaimed to her friend. "That's the place where they meet!" She was standing in front of an Upper West Side coffee shop that figures in a pivotal scene in the 1998 romantic comedy You've Got Mail. They snapped a picture, they went in; I guess it was their destination. It takes all kinds, of course, and New York is all about finding your own city within a city. Hadn't I passed a Friends bus tour in the West Village the week before?
I've always really disliked You've Got Mail, without being sure why. It's not just that it's twee and treacly, or feels dated. It's not merely that it's such a pale shadow of The Shop Around the Corner, the 1940 Ernst Lubitsch classic to which it is an ostensible homage. I remember seeing You've Got Mail when it came out and stalking out of the theater afterward, surrounded by my bemused high school friends, obscurely convinced that the filmmakers did not understand love. What I knew from love is unclear—I had never had anything resembling a relationship—but it's certainly true that something about the film got under my skin. And now I begin to see that this something was, and is, about loneliness. Read More »
Gurley Girls
August 28, 2012 | by Sybil Sage
I was one of the last to get in on the sexual revolution, letting the other virgins sprint out of the starting gate ahead of me. Though sex wasn't formally a competitive sport, in the sixties it could feel like a relay race with men and herpes being passed along by Team America. Cosmo girls were encouraged to be players—to experiment, seduce, and manipulate ... in no particular order. For seventy-five cents, we got monthly tips on being alluring and adventurous. Our coach was Helen Gurley Brown.
In those early days of Cosmopolitan, we ripped into each new issue to find out "How You Can Become a More Likeable, Secure, and Less Jittery Person ... and Change Your Life." You might think that, having read that, you would never need another self-help article, but Helen Gurley Brown had endless ways of tapping into our self-doubts while simultaneously giving us license to lust. Virtue was no longer a virtue. The shame connected to sex that our mothers had tattooed on our DNA was suddenly spun on its head by a woman who never had a daughter. And maybe that's why she made so free with recipes to heat up the bedroom, renovating what was done in bed the way Better Homes and Gardens had our bedrooms. We could now have orgasms along with mismatched bedside tables.
Even if we didn't manage to snag one of the Bachelors of the Month, we might consider other options after reading, say, "The Undiscovered Joys of Having a Chinese Lover," "Should You be Faithful to Somebody Else's Husband," "Buddy-Flirting—the Bold, New Way of Having Him Notice and Like You," "Foot Fetishes: The Trade Secrets of the Sexiest Ladies in History," and "When He Wants You to Make the Orgy." Married women, often overlooked, could learn "How to Get Our Husbands to Love Us Like a Mistress."

Nora Ephron's Potato-Chip Legacy
June 28, 2012 | by Matt Weinstock
In April The Believer declared Nora Ephron "the original Tina Fey." This week, an obituary on The Daily Beast said that she was bigger than Twain. Both superlatives gloss over the fact that Ephron's work was widely reviled (a Village Voice review of Bewitched even argued that "the Ephrons should have to sharecrop, for all the good they've done for the culture") and that, even for Ephron devotees, part of the charm of seeing her latest flick was wondering whether it'd be typical Burbank dung (Mixed Nuts! Michael!) or a piece of deathless Hollywood legend.
Ephron kept dice in her purse, was willing to "teach almost anyone how to play craps at a moment's notice," and her writing had a gambler's unevenness. The rambling digressiveness, along with the faint datedness, of her worldview only intensified your shock when Ephron arrived, seemingly by accident, at an incisive thought. Here she is in her 1983 roman à clef Heartburn, recounting a speech she often made while preparing Lillian Hellman's pot roast recipe:
I have no problem with her political persona, or with her insistence on making herself the centerpiece of most of the historical conflicts of the twentieth century; but it seems to me that she invented a romantic fantasy about her involvement with Dashiell Hammett that is every bit as unrealistic as the Doris Day movies feminists prefer to blame for society's unrealistic notions about romance … it occurred to me as I delivered [the speech] yet another time that I had always zipped through that part of the speech as if I had somehow managed to be invulnerable to the fantasy, as if I had somehow managed to escape from or rise above it simply as a result of having figured it out. I think you often have that sense when you write—that if you can spot something in yourself and set it down on paper, you're free of it.
As someone who was corn-fed on her movies as a child, the passage seems eerily prophetic. Seeing Ephron gab about "unrealistic notions about romance" in 1983 is rather like hearing those reports that the young L. Ron Hubbard told friends, "If you want to get rich, you start a religion"—and it hints at the nagging contradictions of Nora Ephron's life.

"Cute invitation for a boy baby shower, no specific theme. Love the color and size! The invitation was just perfect for what I was hosting and enjoyed by all who received."
"Beautiful invitation! Exceeded expectations! Tiny Prints is an awesome online site...fabulous selection, so easy to work with, excellent quality, well priced, quick execution and fast delivery. Highly recommend using Tiny Prints for all invitation and card needs."
"I brought these for my wife's baby shower and I got to say I'm impressed with the quality of the cards plus the RSVP service that comes with it."
"All of our guests loved these invitations! The umbrella design is lovely and sweet, but contemporary enough to not be old fashioned. I also chose it for it's vertical style. It is larger than the other cards and the turquoise background is perfect. The paper is a very nice quality too!"
"I was able to pick out from many designs just what I wanted as if I could design my own. I also like the free option of having an 'expert' edit the invitation."

I have a wmv file that I can only get audio. I cannot get the vedio to play. My spec is
wmv7.0, win 98se
any help appreciated
I have a Winxp Box that does the same thing, but its media player 10. the wmv file will play on any other pc but this one. Only difference Nvidia on other pc's and Ati radeon on the one that will not work.
use avicodec (http://avicodec.duby.info) to find out what codec you're missing (gspot can't read codec info in wmv files)
Tivo with a lifetime subrcsiption combined with WHS and the Tivo Publisher add-on and you cant go wrong.I know it's a large expense initially but you will save time and headaches later. We have had our WHS box for almost a year and the first tivo for 6 months. We loved how they played so well together that we got another tivo for the upstairs HDTV and we will never look back. No more noisy computers or game consoles running while we are trying to watch TV, Tivo and WHS are the cats @ss solution.Tivo also distibutes Tivo Desktop Plus just incase you want to transfer shows to computer or watch them on your ipod.All around a great solution.

NATICK, Mass. — Janice Mackedon, of Natick, has volunteered as a mentor for the John Andrew Mazie Memorial Foundation (JAMMF), a nonprofit organization that operates the Mazie Mentoring Program and is dedicated to transforming at-risk or disadvantaged youth into adults of promise.
Founded in 1998, the unique scholarship and mentoring program pairs high school students who are at-risk of not fulfilling their potential with adult mentors who can help them thrive. Youth are selected for the program by school officials. The mentors are all volunteers who motivate students to work toward a better future while empowering them to have trusting relationships with adults.
Mackedon was matched with Jaslyn Moreta, a sophomore at Framingham High School. For the next five semesters, the duo will work together to fulfill two community service requirements, set academic and career-oriented goals for the students, and research the college application process. They will meet at least eight hours each month to participate in Mazie sponsored and individual activities that will expose them to new social, cultural and educational experiences.
Mentors of the program help students to improve their academic standing, graduate from high school and experience earned success. In turn, mentors are often inspired by their mentees and find volunteering for the Mazie Mentoring Program to be a rewarding experience.
"Our volunteer mentors are the vital ingredients that make our program run successfully," says Founder and Executive Director Lowell Mazie. "Not only do they help students to achieve success, but, they often experience positive changes within themselves. Mentors report having improved listening skills and becoming more open to new ideas as a result of their participation. Overall, mentors find their experience to be a meaningful way to give back to the community."
In the last 16 years, the Mazie Mentoring Program has helped more than 500 young people go on to lead more fulfilled and successful lives. More than 90 percent of Mazie mentees graduate from high school and more than 70 percent go on to college or other post-secondary training programs.
Applications for new mentors are always being accepted. For more information, to donate or to become a mentor, visit www.mazie.org or contact Lowell Mazie, Executive Director at firstname.lastname@example.com.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (NEWS RELEASE) - WaterStep, a Louisville-based organization that works to save lives around the world with safe water, is issuing a call for donations to provide disaster relief to the Filipino victims of the Super Typhoon Haiyan, one of the most powerful storms ever recorded. For every $1,200 raised, one M-100 chlorine generator will be shipped to the Filipino Red Cross and any other organization, church group or individual with boots on the ground in The Philippines who will be trained on how to install and maintain the systems via WaterStep's new online distance learning program.
The M-100, which was developed with the help of volunteer engineers from General Electric (GE) and the Louisville Water Company, is currently deployed in more than 25 countries around the world including Brazil, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guatemala, Haiti, Pakistan, India, Iraq, Kenya and Uganda. The M-100 is a chlorine generator small enough to fit in a carry-on suitcase, yet powerful enough to provide safe water for thousands of people each day. It uses table salt and a 12-volt car battery, or solar panels, to simply and safely produce chlorine gas. When the gas is injected into contaminated water, it is highly effective in killing disease-causing pathogens and can produce up to 30,000 gallons of safe water each day.
Funds raised will cover the cost of the M-100 chlorinators and the shipping, as well as the online training program for the Red Cross and others. To donate, visit www.waterstep.org or call (502) 568-6342 and be sure to designate the contribution to the Philippines Typhoon Relief.
About WaterStep
WaterStep, headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) organization that works to fight the global water crisis by addressing the root causes of waterborne illness. By combining training and technology, WaterStep empowers ordinary people to provide safe, sustainable water and health and hygiene solutions to their own communities. Since 2001, WaterStep has improved the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in almost two dozen countries including Haiti, Kenya, India, the Dominican Republic, Pakistan, and Costa Rica.

Feary SongFeary Song
I heard the faeries dance one day
in a time long gone
they twirled joyously in the fray
singing their faeries song
And then i saw as i did watch
a man with eyes like fire
step foreword and begin to sway
to the ethereal choir
With skin like snow and hair spun gold
he drifted through the throng
the eyes of all who saw were his
humming that fearies song
After a time he stopped by chance
before the girl watching their play
and oddly asked her for a dance
bespelled, i joined the fray
twirling among the beings bright
mortal and Elvin king
by their magick, my heart took flight
and i began to sing
the words like honey on my lips
in language sweet our words combined
his beauty did bewitch my soul
no sweeter solstice could i find
the dancing grace of Hume and fey
twirled deep into the night
and his spell could only break when day
came shimmering into sight
At dawn they left, immortal fey
at the cockerels crow
i alone in the summer meadow lay
dreaming of tir na n
Tir Na NogBleeding with the sidhe
Can no one hear me
Crying with the tick of clock
Seeking out my Tir Na Nog
Tir Na Nog
Blessed land of agelessness
Bring me to you
To your shores of light
Graceless in my skin
Plead to be let in
Wanting my key to unlock
The way out; to Tir Na Nog
Tir Na Nog
Blessed land of fearlessness
Bring me to you
To your shores of night
Creeping through the shadows
I don't know what I can do
Have to find my way
To my land of dreams
Tir Na Nog
Fantasy so dear to me
Dreaming of you
Dreaming my reality
Dreaming of you
Can you see me, can you feel me
Losing you
Help me dream...
Tir Na NogTheres a place I want to go.
SIlver lines everything there.
FoRget the world I know.
WaNting, wishing, wondering,
If I cAn ever find a place I belong.
Oh I kNow I can never go unless,
Unless, nO, I will find a way to get there.
I do not belonG here.
I belong away, in an otherworld.

Above is the website URL that I use to start my search for Land Records on Family Search, the Latter Day Saints public website.
Mary Rhodes, Wellsville Town Historian, has supplied us with a guideline to use in researching land records for the county which begin in the year of the founding, 1806.
For Allegany County NY Land Records on Family Search:
Searching for deed records is actually very easy on Family Search. It requires a little prior knowledge of the site and a little patience.
Sign in to Familysearch.org This is a free site, but you must sign in.
After you have signed in – there is a box at the bottom of the page in the middle that says "Search" – click on that.
At "Discover Your Family History" – Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on "United States".
At "Historical Records Collection" there is a box on the left, scroll down to "New York" and click on that link.
You are now looking at all the databases for New York on Family Search.
For Deeds, scroll down to "New York Land Records"
There will be a link that says something like "Browse through 8,129,000 images – DON'T WORRY!!
Choose "Allegany"
Go down the list of records until you find either:
The land records are organized in Books or Volumes – but FIRST you need an index to know what book to look in.
Grantor Index 1807-1929 is for selling land
Grantee Index 1807-1929 is for buying land
The Grantee indexes are in several books: Grantee Index 1807-1929 A-C, D-G, H-L, M-P, Q-S and T-Z. Each book is organized alphabetically.
Now you must choose what index to look in – for an example I am using the name Brunshinham
Now it's a matter of hunting for the BRUSH names in the books – In the Grantee book it starts on page 307 (I hunted for it by typing guesses into the image number above the image on screen) This will require a bit of hunting and pecking. Remember that images comprise TWO pages, so you may have to drag the screen to the left to see the page on the right.
Scroll down the page and you can see the name Brushinham on the second page on the screen – use your mouse to navigate the screen.
In 1864 John Brushinham purchased property from John Greig by Trustee. The deed is in Liber (book) 67 on page 77. Its in Tract 2 of Range 7 in the PE Lot 47. The italicized stuff here is surveyor speak – it has to do with original surveys and original Land Grants. I think you are mostly interested in the ancestor, so the information you need now is just the book number and the page number. If your ancestor has a very common name (Smith, Green, Johnson – then use the Tract and Range to narrow down you search. Tract 2 in the MR or Morris Reserve refers to Wellsville.)
Once you have found all the Brushinghams you need to find on these pages and noted who they purchased land from and what book and number you will find it in – click on the word Allegany in the blue writing after Land Records to take you back to the page with the land deeds on it.
Scroll down to find "Deeds 1864-1865 Vol 67"
Now you have to hunt and peck again to find page 77. At the Image box, type in 77 and see where it takes you. If it takes you too high (the pages in each book are numbered) then type in 57 or another number, sometimes you only need to halve the page numbers (77/2 = page 38 or 39) and it should take you to a land deed. BUT KNOW that several books have sometimes been scanned together. They will still be in numeric order, but you need to be aware of what book you are in – the book or Liber number is at the top of each page normally.
Use the widget to the right to save your image to a file.

"MOSES VAN CAMPEN, A Tribute" Welcome to "Moses Van Campen ... In Tribute"
Launched in 2009, 200 hundred years after completing his home in Angelica, NY, MosesVanCampen.com was created "In Tribute" to Moses Van Campen (1757-1849). May it serve as an anthology of the countless artifacts written, published and preserved which help tell the life story and legacy of this truly remarkable man. May it inspire others to contribute to family, community and country; mirroring, even in some small way, the tremendous donations to the same by Moses Van Campen.
