Focusing our attention on a species (Ardea herodias) as we endeavor to break the human powered flight distance record with ornithopters.
Janine Benyus says it succinctly. People need to come out of their silos and work together to see this next step in the human powered flight story happen. Unless some enormously generous benefactor steps forward with wads of cash, a team of steadfastly determined individuals with a diversity of talents and utter disregard for personal monetary gain is needed. Can that happen? We will see. Flight provides the shortest distance between two points. We are LONG past the point where technology gave us the gossamer condor. How far ahead is the takeoff of a human powered ornithopter that can fly more than 74 miles?

U.S. History classes will take time out of the regular schedule on September 17 for Constitution Day and at the end of the month for Freedom Week. During this week we will investigate the importance of America's Founding documents (e.g., Declaration of Independence/U.S. Constitution).

- How to Prevent Snacking Too Much
How to get control of six common snacking situations and how not to overeat.
- How to Prevent Forgetting a Name
We've all done it. Someone calls out your name as you're running errands and at the moment you turn to reply, your mind goes completely blank. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. You couldn't remember her name if your life depended on it, so you simply reply with a generic (and embarrassing), "Hi!" Here's how to never let it happen again.
- How to Prevent Back Pain at Work
Between phone calls, e-mails, and deadlines, who has time to sit up straight?
- How to Prevent Smelly Feet
Nothing ruins your entryway, date night, or a good pair of shoes like a stink. And once the smell starts, it's hard to keep it from invading the rest of your footwear. That's because even the most delicate shoes are a dark, sweaty breeding ground for odour-causing bacteria. You can't completely remove it, but you can control the stench. Before you lose another pair of pumps, try these expert tips for nipping smelly feet in the bud before it starts. So the next time a hostess says, "Would you mind taking your shoes off," you can do so in confidence
- How to Prevent Lower Back Pain
If you suffer from lower back pain, you're certainly not alone. According to the National Institutes of Health, back pain is the second most common neurological ailment in the U.S. (second to headaches), and Americans spend at least $50 billion a year on treating it
- How to Prevent Acne
Ugh. You're a grown woman - maybe even battling fine lines - and now...a pimple? Adult acne is increasingly common, but some easy steps can be taken to nip these spots in the bud before they show up on your face (and, let's be honest, ruin your mood)
- How to Prevent Hangnails
A nasty hangnail can make even picking up a pen a painful experience. Even if you get regular manicures, it seems that once they start, your only choice is to spend the next week with a band-aid and a furrowed brow
- How To Prevent Blisters
A bad case of blisters can put a dent in your stride, and high heels aren't the only culprits. Flats and workout sneakers can easily rub the wrong way, too, if they don't fit correctly. Follow these preventative measures to stay on your feet comfortably.
- How to Prevent a Cold
When it comes to colds, you know the drill. Once you have one, the best you can do is try to manage your symptoms, not cure it. So as your mother told you: Prevention really is the best medicine
- How to Prevent an Afternoon Slump
Lunch is over, your last sip of coffee was hours ago, and now your eyelids are starting to droop. Before you reach for a soda or head for the vending machines, wake up! There are better ways to beat an afternoon slump than a sugary treat you'll regret later. While most of us can't pause for a nap (and if you can, we're jealous!), here are a few little tips anyone can do to keep from feeling like a zombie until dinnertime
- Care for Cracked Lips
The best way to prevent chapped lips is to avoid conditions that cause them, says Dr. Andrew Weil. Unfortunately, those conditions are everywhere: cold weather and exposure to sun, dry air, and wind all make lips dry, cracked, or sore, as well as dehydration, nasal allergies, and breathing through your mouth. Certain medications, such as acne drugs, can cause chapped lips too. Counteract these environmental causes and restore moisture to your home and your body by drinking plenty of water and investing in a humidifier
- How to Prevent Yellow Teeth
Teeth aren't meant to be totally white—their natural colour is actually light yellow to light yellow-red. But as you age, your teeth tend to darken even more
- How to Prevent Memory Loss
10 steps to a better brain
- How to Prevent Headaches
Help Out Your Head
- How To Prevent Period Cramps
You might think of menstrual cramps as something you just have to put up with each month—kind of like your period itself. Good news: There are several easy ways to put a damper on cramps before they even start. If the fixes below don't put a dent in your discomfort, alert your doctor—your pain may be a sign of a more severe condition, like endometriosis.
- How To Prevent Heartburn
If you've ever had the unfortunate experience of heartburn—when food and stomach acid travel the wrong way, creating a burning sensation in your esophagus—you know that it's as miserable as it sounds. What heartburn can lead to is equally unpleasant, including fiery chest aches and halitosis. It's not pretty, but luckily, there's a lot you can do to prevent heartburn in the first place, with these easy tips.
- How to Prevent Hair Loss
We all lose plenty of strays every day, but if you've found more and more falling out in the shower or after brushing your hair, stop the cycle before it gets out of control
- How to Prevent Food Spoiling
So you went out of your way to load up on fresh fruits and veggies from the farmer's market only to find that three days later, it's all gone bad
- How to Prevent a Hangover
Hey, it happens. You weren't planning on that one cocktail turning into three (or five), but the next thing you know, you wake up with a headache that makes you wish you'd never been born. Your best bet—of course—is to not drink excessively. But for those times when it does happen, here's how to deal with it (and avoid it in the first place).
- How to Prevent Snoring
No woman likes the idea that she snores like a truck driver. But a lot of us do just that. In fact, it's been estimated that up to 50 percent of the US population snores at one time or another. And snoring is more than just a nuisance—it's been shown to disrupt the sleep of 90 million American adults and their partners. The good news is that lifestyle changes and medical advances can minimize the log sawing. Here's how.
- How to Prevent Bloating
Nothing's more frustrating than grabbing your favourite jeans and—eek!—they aren't even close to buttoning. But don't despair: The reason for your puffy belly may be bloat, not fat. In fact, one of the worst culprits for this problem—a slow digestive system—is common among women over age 40. The good news is that there are lots of simple tweaks that can counteract common bloat-inducers. Here's how to slim your silhouette.

Sergio Triana won after reading the most books in Whitfield County in 2001. Schools and individuals were chosen for the prizes based off how many books they had read for the year. Every winner received a cash prize.
However, Sergio Triana was missing one thing that kept him from getting it, until now. It was a program that started in the late 1990's where Beaulieu employees read to students in the surrounding counties. "We used to give away cash awards to the counties that read the most books and students that read the most books."In 2001 the company awarded the prize to then 8-year old, Sergio Triana, for being the top reader in Whitfield County."It's nervous, and it's a lot of pressure and I have a brother and a sister and I'm the biggest and I know I have to be a role model for them no matter what."But the 1-thousand dollar savings bond came with a catch. "One of the things the bonds required in those days was you had to give them a Social Security Number in order to get it."Something Sergio didn't have just yet. He was still going through the process to become an American citizen. "We committed to the fact that whenever he was able to get it taken care of, we would give him his award." And 13 years later, he was ready to accept."I went to my 3rd grade teacher to tell her about my legal status and she was the one who reminded me. That's your award, and you should write them a letter and reclaim it."It was a commitment the company was happy to keep, "We were thrilled to do that. It was just a great opportunity for us to think back to a really good time we really enjoyed it and to honor one of the best students that came through.""It was a long time, but I feel proud of myself and my family for what we've gone through."Sergio is now in his second year of college. He says he plans to put the money in the bank, and possibly invest it for the future.

I have used every brush cleaner known to man. Most of which contain harsh chemicals in them that destroy the natural hair of the brushes so I usually just end up using regular shampoo. That is until I tried The London Brush Company's Pure Goat Milk Solid Brush Cleaner a few months ago. I picked up a 1oz container at Nigel Beauty Emporium and was blown away by how clean and soft my brushes were. I am now on my 3rd container. This stuff is that good!
The creator of this wonderful product is accomplished makeup artist Sian Richards of The London Brush Company. These brushes are a staple in my makeup kit and are hand crafted in Great Britain. Sian has 22 years of experience as a movie makeup artist and you can check out her latest work in the new movie Cloud Atlas starring Halle Berry.
This brush cleaner is a MUST for any professional makeup artist or makeup aficionado. Pick yours up at www.londonbrushcompany.com

I've had the notion to build a new gun for a while, I finally came across a blank so against my better judgement I gave it a go.
I started out knowing I wanted a rear handle gun to sling a 50inch shaft, so I had the measurements figured out right away. I enlisted a not be mentioned professional gun builder that doesn't have enough time to finish his own guns let me borrow his tools and supervised so I didn't lose any fingers.
I can tell you for sure I did not turn out the artwork alot of the real gun builders on this site do but I think it will kill a fish or 2 and hopefully soon.
I chose not to pour a track as I dont think it is neccesary and didnt screw up the first run so didn't have to. I did epoxy coat the inside and lip of the track then sanded the gun to 320 grit and oiled the rest of the gun. I built it a little wider and shorter than most guns as in theory it should swing a little better but we'll see. I didn't cut the front for a band slot and will tie them in as needed unless it's to much of a pain.
Got the rest of the pieces from Ken Jones of Deathstick Spearguns and should kill a few fish with it tomor providing it doesn't hit the ground before I can see it.
Thanks for the help guys I'm pretty happy bout how it turned out. Dont worry Ken I wont steal any time and ideas from you while trying to profit behind your back. Thanks alot

Dark Horizon is a beautiful and easily accessible game that does justice to a genre, which has been woefully under-represented in recent times. For those of you who took great joy in dispatching Kilrathi in their droves then you will almost certainly find a welcome home among Dark Horizon's Mirk-infested stars. It even has the playability and the looks to draw in plenty of gamers who have never played a space-sim in their lives. This is a superb space-opera even if there are no big cats in sight.
Digital Chumps
In a nutshell, Dark Horizon is a deep and fun space combat game with a good dose of RPG that will easily appeal to fans of space and flight combat.
Game industry News (GiN)
What makes Dark Horizon work is that the little flaws in the combat engine are balanced out perfectly by the highly detailed world and strong plot, which is revealed to you in a variety of ways including background text, cut scenes, and even in-cockpit voice dialogue. It's one of those games that will hook you in and have you playing just one more mission to see what happens next. And of course that one more mission becomes one more and one more, until it's suddenly morning and you forgot to go to bed. Especially if you like space simulations, Dark Horizon is that good. I much prefer the "full freedom of exploration" type titles to the linear plot type ones, and even I found a good home in Dark Horizon's brooding, deep world.
Game Captain
Dark Horizon ist eine Neuauflage von Tarr Chronicles mit interessantem Prequel Plot, aber ansonsten eher marginalen Änderungen und Neuerungen. Das actionreiche Konzept macht zwar einigermaßen Spaß, aber die relativ kure Spieldauer und die wenig abwechslungsreichen Seek and Destroy Missionen bieten kaum Wiederspielbarkeitspotenzial bzw. Langzeitmotivation. Als nette Ballerei zwischendurch ist Dark Horizon durchaus zu empfehlen, aber Schwächen in der Steuerung und der nicht mehr ganz taufrischen Optik verbieten eine Topwertung.
Game Vortex
If you played the original The Tarr Chronicles, I think you would feel that this game is redemption on this original property, judging from what has been written about it. I had a good time, like I said, but with the repetitive missions and non-immersive story, I had to say that this was a fairly average game. It looks great, and is really well-balanced, keeping it from being lackluster. A little more time would have done this game some real good. A little more time to vary the missions and better explain the story could have made this a great game, instead of a good one. I am off to take down my flight toys. Guardian Wumpus out.
While Dark Horizon isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread, it is by no means a poor representation of the genre. If you're looking for something new and ground-breaking, don't expect it here. If you just want a good ole fashioned space sim, Dark Horizon fits the bill.
I am quite disappointed by the fact that the game felt so unpolished and crashed so much. The game really captured me sometimes, but I totally lost the continuity because of the crashes. By continually having to restart Dark Horizon, you have to replay big parts of a mission, which is boring and disrupts the story-telling aspect of the game. The game certainly has some good bits—like the dogfights, the rich story universe and some nice ship configuration options—but, in the end, these cannot make up for the sheer amount of game instability and incoherent storytelling. There is a big patch being released in the next few weeks though, and that might make the game a fun, but not fantastic, experience.
There's no doubt about it; Dark Horizon is flawed. From flat-out errors to those moments where you can't help but wonder what, exactly, the developer was thinking, the game feels almost unfinished. Ultimately, we'd like to see what Quazar could do if it joined forces with a high-end publisher/financier to iron out the wrinkles. However, if arcade space-shooting in often-spectacular environments appeals to you, and if going wild in the most complete garage facility ever constructed in outer space sounds like fun, you'll likely enjoy it despite its foibles.
gameZine (UK)
Anyway, as I've said, the combat is solid enough and you'll have a decent amount of fun when engaged in the skirmishes themselves. However, the tedious storyline means few players will be sitting down for extended sessions on DH – there is just no real impetus to continue. Load it up, do a mission, quit – that's what I found myself doing. The whole process is very disjointed, lacking any real coherent narrative. Unless you put in the effort to read all the text between missions, each one will mean very little. It just goes to show how important the cut-scenes in Wing Commander were, when you think about it. They provided an emotional link between the combat and the ongoing narrative. You did genuinely care whether Iceman or Maniac got killed in a mission, because they were real characters to you, not just a collection of words on a screen. I digress, though. Dark Horizon has everything you'd want from a space combat game – except a real reason to actually play it. A terrible shame.
GameStar (Germany)
Eine detailreiche Hintergrundgeschichte, Zwischensequenzen im Homeworld-Stil und das einfallsreiche Spiel mit tarnender Systemkühlung und dem Überhitzen der Laserwaffen verleihen Dark Horizon das Potenzial zum ordentlichen Wing Commander-Klon. Doch die Raumjägerhatz scheitert an Designmacken. Die dümmliche Kamikaze-KI nervt, der Schwierigkeitsgrad schwankt enorm, und zufällige Lasersounds irritieren.
PC Gameplay (Benelux)
Quazar Studios strooit een paar halfbakken nieuwigheden op een bedorven spelformule. Werp eens een blik op X3: Terran Conflict ...
This isn't enough to save Dark Horizon from feeling mediocre, however. It's a decent enough simulation, but the few extra features and an obscure storyline aren't enough to halt the feeling that you're following a well-worn formula. This isn't helped by the visuals: Dark Horizon doesn't look as if it's moved on from the days of Freespace 2, which is almost a decade old. Maybe a die-hard space combat fanatic could see Dark Horizon through to the end, but we were struggling to remain enthusiastic after just an hour.
Cheat Code Central
Dark Horizon is a game that should be seen, not heard. Whether it should be played depends on just how empty your life is.
The verdict here should be pretty obvious. For a simplistic shooter it's actually great. The space setting gives the graphics folks a real chance to shine, and they do - nebulas melt into deep space like oceans and explosions bloom in the night sky like daisies. You get to make your cruiser a serious hotrod, you get to relieve any stress work might be causing you - as a blow-stuff-up free-for-all it really works. For a game built on a battle system designed to be fun and simple, you have to wonder why the story's just so complex and grim. In the end, it turns out a lot like space: majestic and somber, but even emptier than air.
Perhaps the best choice is not to play the game at all. Dark Horizon is an undeniably subpar effort, although so few space dogfighting games are made for the PC today that it might still appear passable to anyone seeking to relive the Wing Commander/X-Wing/TIE Fighter era. But don't be fooled. Even with so few choices available in this genre today, this isn't a good game.
So, Dark Horizon isn't a horrible game. It's just not a very good one, either. While nothing about it is particularly offensive, it still absolutely fails to generate any interest in a genre that, in most people's eyes, stagnated a long time ago. Pretty visuals are always nice, but when they're shoved together with a confusing and poorly-told story and dull, dull, dull missions, they won't hold your attention for long. Take your money elsewhere, boys. This one's a turkey.
Adrenaline Vault, The (AVault)
Sadly, Dark Horizon is a disappointment in a lot of ways. Looking at the screenshots, you might be tempted to pick up a copy because the game is certainly pretty, but the frustrations that come with it are not worth the price. Fans searching for a game to come along and rescue the space fighter sim will have to keep looking.

I have gotten used to
coming home to be alone
I have gotten used to
not questioning where you go
and I have gotten used to
a short call to say hello
but I have not gotten used to
the way my heart feels ohh so low
I have leaned to be okay
with talking only briefly
our schedules don't match up at all
but someday you will see me
I have learned you never come
when you say you will
and I have learned not to expect
the actions said by you
I would like to be taken out
just once in a blue moon
I don't ask for much you see
just to be with you
I would like to lay one night
knowing you won't have to leave
I would like to wake up to
you sleeping next to me.
But no, you can't
not right now
maybe in a year
should I wait when my heart breaks?
every day I feel the tears
I am lonely and in love
with someone who loves me
or so I think,
but where oh where is he?

Richard Michael "Rik" Mayall (born 7 March 1958) is an English comedian, writer and actor. Mayall is best known for his comedy partnership with Adrian Edmondson, his over-the-top, energetic portrayal of characters and as a pioneer of alternative comedy in the early 1980s. He appeared in numerous sitcoms including The Young Ones, Blackadder, The New Statesman and Bottom and the big screen in comedy films Drop Dead Fred and Guest House Paradiso.
Mayall, the second of four children, was born in Harlow, Essex[1] to John and Gillian Mayall. He has an older brother, Anthony, and two younger sisters, Libby and Kate.[2] When Mayall was three years old, he and his parents — who taught drama — moved to Droitwich Spa, Worcestershire, where he spent the rest of his childhood and performed in his parents' plays. After attending The King's School, Worcester, Mayall went to the Victoria University of Manchester in 1976 to study drama, where he befriended his future comedy partner Ade Edmondson. He also met Ben Elton and Lise Mayer, with whom he later co-wrote The Young Ones.
Edmondson and Mayall gained their reputation at the Comedy Store, from 1980. The double act, "20th Century Coyote", became popular. Mayall also developed solo routines using characters such as Kevin Turvey and a pompous anarchist poet named Rick. This led to Edmondson and Mayall, along with Comedy Store compere Alexei Sayle and other upcoming comedians including Nigel Planer, Peter Richardson, French and Saunders, Arnold Brown and Pete Richens, to set up their own comedy club called "The Comic Strip" in the Raymond Revue Bar, a strip club. Mayall's popularity led to a regular slot for Kevin Turvey on "A Kick Up the Eighties," first broadcast in 1981. He appeared as "Rest Home" Ricky in Richard O'Brien's "Shock Treatment," sequel to "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." He played Dentonvale's resident attendant as the love interest to Nell Campbell's Nurse Ansalong.
Mayall's television appearances as Kevin Turvey in 1977 along with Johnathan PP Seller warranted a mockumentary based on the character entitled Kevin Turvey – The Man Behind The Green Door, broadcast in 1982. The previous year, he appeared in a bit role in An American Werewolf in London. His stage partnership with Edmondson continued, often appearing together as "The Dangerous Brothers", hapless daredevils whose hyper-violent antics foreshadowed their characters in Bottom. Mayall also made a cameo appearance in the 1983 gothic horror film, The Keep directed by Michael Mann. Channel 4 offered the Comic Strip group six short films, which became the Comic Strip Presents..., debuting on 2 November 1982. The series, which continued sporadically for many years, saw Mayall play a wide variety of roles. It was known for anti-establishment humour and for parodies such as Bad News on Tour, a spoof "rockumentary" starring Mayall, Richardson, Edmondson and Planer as a heavy metal band.
At the time The Comic Strip Presents... was negotiated, the BBC took an interest in The Young Ones, a sitcom written by Mayall and then-girlfriend Lise Mayer, in the same anarchic vein as Comic Strip. Ben Elton joined the writers. The series was commissioned and first broadcast in 1982, shortly before Comic Strip. Mayall played Rik, a pompous sociology student and Cliff Richard devotee. Despite the sitcom format, Mayall maintained his double-act with Edmondson, who starred as violent punk Vyvyan. Nigel Planer (as hippie Neil) and Christopher Ryan (as "Mike the cool person") also starred, with additional material written and performed by Alexei Sayle. The first series was successful and a second was commissioned in 1984. The show owed a comic debt to Spike Milligan, but Milligan was disapproving of Mayall, and once wrote: "Rik Mayall is putrid – absolutely vile. He thinks nose-picking is funny and farting and all that. He is the arsehole of British comedy." [3] In 1986 Rik Mayall played the Detective in the Video of Peter Gunn by Art Of Noise Featuring Duane Eddy.
Mayall continued to work on The Comic Strip films. He returned to standup, starring on Saturday Live — a British version of the American Saturday Night Live — first broadcast in 1985. He and Edmondson had a regular section as "The Dangerous Brothers", their earlier stage act. In 1985, Mayall debuted another comic creation. He had starred in the final episode of The Black Adder in 1983 as "Mad Gerald". He returned to play Lord Flashheart in the Blackadder II-episode entitled "Bells". A descendant of this character, Squadron Commander Flashheart, was in the Blackadder Goes Forth episode "Private Plane". In the same episode, he was reunited with Edmondson, who played German flying ace Baron von Richthofen the "Red Baron", in a scene where he comes to rescue Captain Blackadder from the Germans. Nearly a decade later, Mayall also appeared in Blackadder: Back & Forth as Robin Hood.
In 1986, Mayall joined with Planer, Edmondson and Elton to star in Filthy Rich & Catflap as Richie Rich in what was billed as a follow-up to The Young Ones. The idea of "Filthy Rich and Catflap" was in reaction to comments Jimmy Tarbuck made about the "Young Ones". The series primary focus was to highlight the "has been" status of light entertainment. While Mayall received positive critical reviews, viewing figures were poor and the series was never repeated on the BBC. In later years, release on video, DVD and repeats on UK TV found a following. Mayall suggested the series did not last because he was uncomfortable acting in an Elton project, when they had been co-writers on The Young Ones.[4] 1987 saw Mayall co-star with Edmondson in the ITV sit-com Hardwicke House. Due to adverse reaction of press and viewers, ITV withdrew the series after two episodes.[5] The same year, Mayall had a number one hit in the UK Singles charts when he and his co-stars from The Young Ones teamed with Cliff Richard to record "Living Doll" for the inaugural Comic Relief campaign. Mayall played Rick one last time in the stage show and has supported the Comic Relief cause ever since. He appeared on the children's television series Jackanory. His crazed portrayal of Roald Dahl's George's Marvellous Medicine proved memorable.[6] However, the BBC received complaints "with viewers claiming both story and presentation to be both dangerous and offensive.".[7]
In 1987, Mayall played fictional Conservative MP Alan Beresford B'Stard in the sitcom The New Statesman for Yorkshire Television, written by Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran. The character was a satire of Tory MPs in the United Kingdom in the 1980s and early 1990s. The programme ran for four series – incorporating two BBC specials – between 1987–94 and was a success critically and in ratings. In a similar vein to his appearance on Jackanory, in 1989, Mayall starred in a series of bit shows for ITV called Grim Tales, in which he narrated Grimm Brothers fairy tales while puppets acted the stories. In the early 1990s Mayall starred in humorous adverts for Nintendo games and consoles. With money from the ads, he bought his house in London which he calls "Nintendo Towers".
In 1991, Edmondson and Mayall co-starred in the West End production of Beckett's Waiting for Godot at the Queen's Theatre, with Mayall playing Vladimir, Edmondson as Estragon and Christopher Ryan as Lucky. Here they came up with the idea for Bottom, which they said was a cruder cousin to Waiting for Godot. Bottom was commissioned by the BBC and three series were shown between 1991–95. Mayall starred as "Richard 'Richie' Richard" alongside Edmondson's "Eddie Elizabeth Hitler". The series featured slapstick violence taken to new extremes. The series gained a strong cult following. In 1993, following the second series, Mayall and Edmondson decided to take a stage show version of the series on a national tour. Bottom: Live was a commercial success, filling large venues. Four additional stage shows were embarked upon in 1995, 1997, 2001 and 2003, each to great success. The violent natures of these shows saw both Edmondson and Mayall ending up in hospital at various points. A film version, Guest House Paradiso, was released in 1999. A fourth TV series was also written, but not commissioned by the BBC.
Mayall starred alongside Phoebe Cates in 1991's Drop Dead Fred as the eponymous character, a troublesome imaginary friend reappearing from a woman's childhood. He also appeared in Carry On Columbus (1992) with other alternative comedians. Mayall also provided the voice of the character Froglip, the leader of the goblins, in the 1992 animated film adaption of the 1872 children's tale, The Princess and the Goblin by George MacDonald. In 1993, he appeared in Rik Mayall Presents, three individual comedy dramas. Mayall's performances won a Best Comedy Performer award at that year's British Comedy Awards, and a second series of three was broadcast in early 1995. He provided the voice for Little Sod in Simon Brett's How to Be a Little Sod, written in 1991 and adapted as 10 consecutive episodes broadcast on the BBC in 1995. In the early 1990s, he auditioned for the roles of Banzai, Zazu and Timon in The Lion King. He was asked to audition by lyricist Tim Rice. The role of Zazu finally went to his Blackadder co-star Rowan Atkinson.
In 1995 Mayall co-starred in a production of the play Cell Mates, alongside Stephen Fry. Not long into the run, Fry had a nervous breakdown and fled to Belgium, where he remained for several days, and the play closed.[citation needed] In 2007, Mayall said of the incident: "You don't leave the trenches ... selfishness is one thing, being a cunt is another. I mustn't start that war again."[8] Edmondson poked fun at the event during their stage tours. In Bottom Live: The Big Number Two Tour, after Mayall gave mocking gestures to the audience and insulted their town in a silly voice, Edmondson said "Have you finished yet? It's just I'm beginning to understand why Stephen Fry fucked off." In Bottom Live 2003: Weapons Grade Y-Fronts Tour, after Richie accidentally fondles Eddie, he replies "I see why Stephen Fry left that play." Towards the end of Cell Mates Mayall revealed a replica gun – a prop from the play – to a passer-by in the street. He was cautioned over the incident. Mayall later conceded that this was "incredibly stupid, even by my standards".[9] Since 1999, Mayall was the voice of the black-headed seagull Kehaar in the first and the second series of the animated television programme Watership Down.
In 2000, Mayall lent his voice to the PlayStation and Windows PC video game Hogs of War. Also that year, Mayall appeared in the video production of Jesus Christ Superstar as King Herod. He joked in the "making of" documentary, which was included on the DVD release, that "the real reason why millions of people want to come and see this is because I'm in it! Me and Jesus!" In 2002, Mayall teamed up with Marks and Gran once more when he starred as Professor Adonis Cnut in the ITV sitcom, Believe Nothing. However, the sitcom failed to repeat the success of The New Statesman and lasted only one series. Following 2003's Bottom: Live tour, Bottom 5: Weapons Grade Y-Fronts, Mayall stated that he and Edmondson would return with another tour.[10] Shortly thereafter, however, Edmondson told the Daily Mail that he no longer wished to work on Bottom. This effectively dissolved their nearly 30-year partnership. Edmondson claimed they were "too old" to continue portraying the characters. Edmondson added that, since Mayall had recovered from his coma, he was slower on the uptake and it had become more difficult to work with him, as well as citing that due to taking medication, Mayall had been advised to stop drinking alcohol. However, Edmondson said that the pair remained very close friends.[11]
Mayall voiced Edwin in the BBC show Shoebox Zoo. He released an 'in-character' semi-fictionalised autobiography in September 2005 entitled Bigger than Hitler, Better than Christ (ISBN 0-00-720727-1). At the same time, he starred in a new series for ITV, All About George. Mayall reprised the role of Alan B'Stard in 2006 in the play The New Statesman 2006: Blair B'stard Project, written by Marks and Gran. By this time B'Stard had left the floundering Conservatives and become a Labour MP. Following a successful two-month run in London's West End at the Trafalgar Studios in 2007, a heavily re-written version toured theatres nationwide, with Marks and Gran constantly updating the script to keep it topical. However, Mayall succumbed to chronic fatigue and flu in May 2007, and withdrew from the show. Alan B'Stard was played by his understudy, Mike Sherman during his hiatus.
Mayall was cast as the poltergeist Peeves in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, the first of the Harry Potter films in 2001, although all of his scenes were cut from the film.[12] He claimed in his semi-autobiographical book "Bigger than Hitler, Better than Christ" that he had not been made aware that his scenes had been cut until the full film was officially unveiled at the premiere. He tells the story of this hiring/firing on his second website blog for his 2008 film, Evil Calls: The Raven. For Evil Calls, he shot his role as Winston the Butler in 2002, when the film was titled Alone in the Dark. The film was not completed until 2008 and was released under its new 'Evil Calls' title to distance itself from the Alone in the Dark computer game film. He may appear in a possible sequel. Mayall provides the voice of the Andrex puppy in the UK TV commercials for Andrex toilet paper, and also has a voice part in the UK Domestos cleaning product adverts.[13] He performs the voice of King Arthur in the children's television cartoon series King Arthur's Disasters, alongside Matt Lucas (Little Britain) who plays Merlin. Mayall also had a recurring role in the Channel Five remake of the lighthearted drama series, Minder.
In September 2009, Mayall played a supporting role in the British television programme Midsomer Murders, shown on ITV1 (and made by Meridian Broadcasting) as 'David Roper', a recovering party animal and tenuous friend of the families in and around Chettham Park House.
In April 2010, Motivation Records released[14] Mayall's England Football anthem 'Noble England' for the 2010 FIFA World Cup which he recorded with Coventry producer Dave Loughran.[15] On the track Mayall performs an adapted speech from Shakespeare's Henry V[16] In June 2010 the official BBC Match of the Day compilation CD (2010 Edition) was released by Sony/Universal featuring Noble England – Track 18, CD2.
In September 2010 an audio book, narrated by Mayall, Cutey and the Sofaguard was released by Digital Download. The book was written by Chris Wade and released by Wisdom Twins Books. In this same month Mayall played the voice of Roy's Dad and recorded 5 episodes of animation[17]
In November 2010, Mayall provided narrative for five different characters for CDs accompanying children's books published by Clickety Books. The books aid speech and language development by bombarding the child with troublesome sound targets. He recorded introductions and narratives for the titles.
On 5 March 2011, Mayall appeared on Let's Dance For Comic Relief in which he came on stage and attacked Ade Edmondson with a frying pan during his performance of The Dying Swan ballet. Edmondson mentioned backstage that it was the first time in eight years they've done something like that together and claimed Mayall had left his head with a small bump.
In April 2011, Mayall again revived the character of Alan B'Stard to make an appearance in a satirical television advertisement for the No2AV campaign prior to the 2011 voting reform referendum in the UK. The character is shown being elected under the alternative vote system, then using his newly gained position of power to renege on his campaign promises. In his personal life, Rik Mayall does not support the alternative vote. In May of the same year Mayall became the eponymous 'Bombardier' in a TV advertising campaign for Bombardier Bitter in the UK.[18] The adverts landed broadcaster UKTV Dave in trouble with Ofcom when they were found to breach the Ofcom code for linking alcohol with sexual attractiveness or success.[19]
On 23 August 2012 the BBC announced that Edmondson and Mayall's characters of Richie and Eddie would be returning in 2013 in Hooligan's Island, a television adaptation of their 1997 tour of the same name.[20]
In September 2012 Rik starred in The Last Hurrah; a six-episode, full-cast audio series that he also co-wrote with Craig Green and Dominic Vince.
On 15 October 2012 Ade Edmondson announced during an interview with BBC radio presenter Mark Powlett that the project was cancelled prior to production as he wished to pursue other interests.
In November 2012, Mayall narrated several children's books on the Me Books app such as The Getaway and Banana! by children's illustrator and author Ed Vere.
In October 2013 he appeared in Channel 4 sitcom Man Down, playing the father of the protagonist Greg Davies, although only 10 years older than Greg.
Since 1985 Mayall has been married to Scottish make-up artist Barbara Robbin, with whom he has three children: Rosie (born 1986), Sidney (born 1988) and Bonnie (born 18 September 1995). The couple met in 1981 while filming A Kick Up the Eighties and embarked on a secret affair which lasted until 1985. At the time, Mayall was in a long-term relationship with Lise Mayer. Upon finding out Mayer was pregnant, Mayall eloped to Barbados with Barbara Robbin. Mayer would later suffer a miscarriage.[21] Mayall maintains that, despite a longstanding feud, he and Mayer are now friends.[21]
On 9 April 1998, Mayall was injured after crashing a quad bike near his home in Devon.[22] Mayall's daughter Bonnie and her cousin had asked him to take them for a ride on the bike – a Christmas gift from his wife – but he refused due to rain, and went alone. Mayall's wife Barbara looked out the window and saw him lying on the ground with the bike. Believing he was joking she initially left him for a few minutes. He was in a coma for several days. Mayall was airlifted to Plymouth's Derriford Hospital, with two haematomas and a fractured skull. During the following 96 hours, Mayall was kept sedated to prevent movement which could cause pressure on his brain. His family was warned he could die or have brain damage.[23]
After five days doctors felt it safe to bring Mayall back to consciousness. In his 2005 spoof biography, Mayall claims he "rose from the dead". During Mayall's hospitalization, the Comic Strip special Four Men in a Car was broadcast for the first time. The film involves Mayall's character being hit by a car. Mayall and Edmondson have joked about this event in stage versions of Bottom, Edmondson quipping: 'If only I'd fixed those brakes properly', and Mayall referring to himself: 'You must know him, that tosser who fell off the Quad Bike'. The pair wrote the first draft of their feature film Guest House Paradiso while Mayall was hospitalised. They planned to co-direct but Edmondson took on the duties himself. Mayall returned to work with voice-over work. His first post-accident acting job was in the 1998 Jonathan Creek Christmas special, as DI Gideon Pryke.
In the 2005 poll the Comedians' Comedian, Mayall was voted among the top 50 comedy performers of all time.
In 2008, Mayall was awarded an honorary Doctor of Letters (DLitt) from the University of Exeter.[24]
In the 2010 poll "Top 100 Stand-Up Comedians", Mayall was placed 91.

Every year without fail,
You call me.
You know I don't celebrate Valentine's day,
Yet you still call me.
Every year,
You catch me off guard.
But this year,
I was ready,
And this year,
You didn't call me.
This year,
I spent my first Valentine's day without you.
Considering I don't even celebrate it,
I shouldn't care.
It shouldn't bother me this much,
But it does.
Probably because it was the first.

The main Khoresht used for making Loobia Polo is Khoreshte Loobia Sabz, which I have explained previously under Khoreshte Loobia Sabz (Green Bean Stew) . I will explain the steps for the Khoresht below as well. The main difference will be that the end product of the Khoreshte Loobia Sabz will be mixed in with the rice to cook.
Ingredients (serving for 4-6 people):
Cut green beans — I used half a bag of frozen cut green beans
Stew meat — used less than .5 lbs, you will want to chop the meat into little pieces
1 full tablespoon Tomato Paste — you can use more if you prefer
Limoo Amani (optional) — you can also use powdered limoo amani
Lemon juice
1 medium onion — finely chopped
1 1/2 to 2 cups water
3 to 3 1/2 cups rice –rinse the rice well until it is cleaned and then soak in water…add salt to the water you are soaking the rice in and set aside for awhile (or until the Khoresht (stew) is ready)
Potato (optional) — if you wish to have tahdig sibzamini (potato crispy slices) of your rice have cut slices of potato you
First wash your rice and soak it in water as mentioned in the ingredients section.
In a pot heat up some oil and add your chopped onions to it. Once the onion begin turning a golden color and becomes tender add your meat to the pot. Stir around the meat and then add turmeric, salt, and pepper. Add your green beans to the pot and allow them to fry a bit (if frozen you may have to fry it a bit longer for the ice to melt as well). Add water to the pot, followed by tomato paste and lemon juice (if you choose you can add limoo amani as well). Place the lid on the pot and allow the Khoresht to cook on a medium heat (approximately 1 hour). You will know the khoresht is ready when it has thickened a bit (less watery) and gives out oil.
Once the Khoreshte Loobia is ready in a different pot heat up water on high heat to prepare the rice. Once the water comes to a boil, pour out the water the rice has been soaking in and pour the rice into the pot. When the rice comes to a boil remove it from the heat before it overflows and use a strainer to empty the rice from the pot. In the same pot add some water ( 1/2 a cup) and some oil and place it back on the stove top (still on high heat). At this point if you wish to have tahdig sibzamini you can place cut potato slices on the bottom of the pot (wait till the oil is heated before doing so)…also if you wish to use potato slices be sure to add a bit more oil to the pot. Add half the rice into the pot then pour a layer of the Khoreshte Loobia onto the rice, then add the remaining rice and add any remaining Khoreshte Loobia on top. You can mix around the contents a bit and then place a towel over the lid of the pot and cover the pot. Once the steam begins escaping the pot you can turn the stove top heat to a low temperature. You may want to wait a bit longer before turning the heat to low if you are using potato slices. Let the Loobia Polo cook for 1 to 1 1/2 hours and then serve.
Here are some more pictures from Loobia Polo
3 Responses to "Loobia Polo (Green Bean Rice)"
Thanks for this recipe sites, I just had a few questions about flavorings.Does loobia polo
Green Beans and Rice have cumin, cinnamon, saffron, or lemon in any of the recipes?
HI, your loobia polo looks great. I just made it last night. The taste was very good, a lot of flavor ( I like to use cinnamon and advieh polo) and everybody liked it. I personally wasnt too happy for two reasons. first of all it didnt look as orange as yours. I wonder what should I put/add more to make it to this color. Also my rice was mooshi not doon like I liked it. The only thing I can think of is since I was making it for a lot of people and I only had one big pot, I had to use that one and that doesnt have the small hole to let the steam go out! could that be the reason and/or not taking the rice out earlier while boiling and waited too long to drain it?? Sorry I just want to make it perfect next time. thanx for your beautiful dishes.

KCH to host Open House May 14
Kane Community Hospital will host an Open House Friday, May 14, 1-4 p.m., during National Hospital Week.
During the event the public is invited to tour KCH's leading edge diagnostic imaging center. Don't miss the opportunity to see why so many call KCH a "hidden treasure."
Among the sites on tour at KCH's all-digital imaging center are the mammography suite, new MRI suite, and the modalities of KCH's Breast Health Center.
KCH will offer free Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) Screenings to those interested. An ABI is a simple non-invasive test that uses ultrasound to measure the ratio of the blood pressure in your ankle to that in your arm. This ratio may indicate a potential vascular problem.
Triple board certified radiologist Jamil Sarfraz, M.D. and Janet Brunner, Manager of the Center and Lab will be on hand with imaging staff to greet you and answer questions.
An educational exhibit on breast health will be featured on the tour. Cookies and punch will be served.
KCH's Diagnostic Imaging Center is the leading diagnostic center in the area. Along the tour you will see a high field, 1.5T short-bore MRI; multipurpose all-digital X-ray, fluoroscopy, chest system; dual-head nuclear medicine camera; digital mammography; ultrasound, full body bone densitometry; 32 slice CT (computed tomography); and stereotactic breast biopsy.
KCH also has a Picture Archiving Communication System (PACS) and additional diagnostic modalities located throughout the KCH health system including at the KCH Cardiac Lab, PET/CT at Hamot Medical Park in Johnsonburg, a service of KCH; and capsule endoscopy performed at Summit Medical Park by general surgeon Renato Simon, M.D.
Kane Community Hospital (KCH), an affiliate of Hamot Health Foundation, has served residents and guests of the Alleghenies for over 80 years. KCH is a 31-bed acute care hospital with a five-bed ICU, 24-hour Hamot physician-staffed ER, a system of five, hospital-based physician clinics in Kane, Mt. Jewett, Johnsonburg, Ridgway, Sheffield; a leading edge diagnostics center, cardiac rehab and fitness center, Hamot cardiac clinics, KCH Home Health, and KCH Rehabilitation Services. Learn more at www.kanehosp.com.
KCH's high field, short bore MRI being delivered to the MRI suite through a roof hatch at the Imaging Center in February will be one of the many diagnostic modalities on the tour.

Use Coffee Filters As Disposable Plates At Work
When we're eating on the go or at work we tend to nibble, requiring us to set our food down from time to time. But where? If you're not into making your own reusable pouch, try keeping a stash of coffee filters on hand to act as a plate, pastry holder or anything else that starts with the letter "p" — pizza anyone?
In an office environment it's quite often outside snacks are brought in. Instead of picking up a giant paper plate or paper towel, try using a coffee filter instead. They're lightweight, ridiculously inexpensive, and they catch crumbs, grease, pitch and seeds from any lunch snacks you might be munching on.
They also work great to hold foods when you're on the go, plus they dissolve easily in a landfill, so there's very little eco-guilt involved in the process. An added bonus is their ability to hold warm things (say a steamy egg and cheese biscuit) without them getting soggy.
Plus, if you run short of tea bags you can always staple up some loose leaf tea (because we all keep that in our desk drawers right?) and brew yourself an impromptu cup.

Yep-I've been known to use my share of these for that exact purpose. They are great for popcorn too!
Oooh! Thanks for the window wipes idea! I use filters to cover food in the microwave. I also use them as disposable "dishes"--Besides having nothing to wash (and carry back to the kitchen), they help me with portion control. So much better than eating out of the box!
When we watched movies in elementary school my teacher would bring in a huge bag of popcorn and dole it out to us on our individual coffee filters at our desks.
Thanks for bringing back such a sweet memory I had forgotten about. This is a great economical idea.
"They also work great to hold foods when you're on the go, plus they dissolve easily in a landfill, so there's very little eco-guilt involved in the process. "
Nothing dissolves readily in a landfill, that's part of their design: "Trash put in a landfill will stay there for a very long time. Inside a landfill, there is little oxygen and little moisture. Under these conditions, trash does not break down very rapidly. In fact, when old landfills have been excavated or sampled, 40-year-old newspapers have been found with easily readable print. Landfills are not designed to break down trash, merely to bury it. When a landfill closes, the site, especially the groundwater, must be monitored and maintained for up to 30 years!" (http://science.howstuffworks.com/landfill7.htm )
Gnomes will not come and turn your garbage into fairy-dust. Please stop making spurious claims about the environmental impact of disposable products. It's irresponsible.
I bought mine solely for the purpose of straining curdled milk for cheese, bacon grease, and frying oil. I love how they are so versatile. They are also great for creating a dome over splattering foods in the microwave. They won't melt like plastic wrap sometimes can, stay off of the food due to shape (unlike paper towels) and absorb grease much better.
Crap, I've really been betting on those landfill gnomes to take care of things too :(
Landfill gnomes!
I'll confess to having used paper towels as a substitute for coffee filters. The two items are surprisingly fungible.
Good idea!
Thanks for bringing up an important point MaryWynn. Too often I see people raving about degradable products that they are just sending off to the landfill. However, maybe Sarah's workplace has a separate receptacle for biodegradable waste, I've seen them around.
Coffee filters are a quick way to strain yogurt. Lay one open in a colander and fill with yogurt. It works like a charm.
Speaking of foods with a "P" - I once had a co-worker who ate a baked potato everyday out of a coffee filter. No butter, cheese, salt pepper. Just ate the potato like an apple, safely nestled in the coffee filter.
My mom used to give us potato chips in a coffee filter. we were bad at sharing...:)
