Wow, you definitely don't have a life! Why would you even spend the time to come on Khloe's website, look at her pictures, and make an account just to leave some stupid comment? Why don't you do something useful with your time…like learning english and spelling properly. Get a life, you're ignorant!
sabrinabih | Posted on Jun 6th, 2011
you are the biggest sap ever! how stupid do you have to be to say the someone looks like a certain religion … especially a child? that's the best you can do? start talking nonsense about a child?!
and so far as your hating on Khloe goes … I have to agree with Kiralicious … u are such a loser that you made a profile just to take c*ap!
hahah and you know Kiley is all over Lamar because u watch the show and can't help it but feel anger and jealousy so u come online to make yourself feel better about your sad life and start hating on the amazing Khloe and Lamar!!

look how happy lamar looks and you khloe oh my goodness………love to see love! i tell you guys i can watch y'all all day. i want you guys to know something about marriage that u may or may not already know. you see marriage in hollywood and say wow can anyone make it last forever. well you know sometimes things just dont work out but i want you guys to keep in mind that marriage is a reflection of your relationship with God……..He loves you unconditionally(God) and you are to do the same with your partner. Holy matrimony…….faithfulness, integrity(1. vows one makes 2. God not relinquishing any purpose He set forth in the earth why some people may not understand suffering but its about knowledge—-knowing who you are!) which all encompasses God's attributes. Two becoming one as God said you leave and cleave and God desires you be one with Him……be holy for I am holy. I know, i know that word holy might scare you but see the correlation is all I ask. the rest is a process of surrendering and when i say process i mean process! Everyone has a God shaped hole in their heart only He can fill and when you're ready to be filled He WONT let you down. So happy to know your reading this and i love you with all my heart, smooches.~~~~Ephesians 5:31 and John 17:21-23~~~~

Alexa Woodward | Speck
in NYC
Alexa Woodward
2009 | Constant Clip Recordings
With the recent shuttering of the old Knitting Factory (which was actually the new Knitting Factory, relocated after the first one closed), I guess you officially, finally, can no longer refer to someone as a "downtown" musician. I've often heard that term in reference to New York musicians who aren't from here and don't sound like they live here now, so now that there's no "downtown" music scene (formally anyway), what do you call someone like Alexa Woodward – from Virginia and sounding something like a cool breeze set to music? Woodward's easygoing second album, Speck, sounds like a mildly psychedelic Gillian Welch in a self-imposed artist's retreat.
Too many local artists get in a studio and, for the first time, can finally overpower their songs with too many guitars, too many drums, too many harmonies. The resulting albums manage to overpower the songwriting and somehow pale in comparison to a solo acoustic performance. I am thrilled to say that Speck is not one of those albums. Populated almost entirely by Woodward's simple and compelling banjo and uniquely vibrating alto/soprano singing, the uncluttered arrangements complement the songs without burying the compelling elements of the live solo show. Opener "Speck" gets to about the two-minute mark with just voice and banjo, and then a single harmony, acoustic guitar, and singing saw unfold into the track out of nowhere. It's a neat trick – before the other instruments come in, the listener is almost fooled into thinking he or she is listening to somebody's paltry demo. Later, on "Jimmy," Woodward's banjo is accompanied by some super-tasteful mandolin and low-in-the-mix (like, Mazzy Star low-in-the-mix) string bass.
Lyrically, Woodward leans a little too close to coffeeshop, diary-entry confessionals for my taste. I feel like there's not as much going on in the narrative as there should be. I'd like to hear a little more about what life's like in the city from a new transplant, and I don't feel like she quite gets there. The glaring exception to this rule is on "Plants," in which Woodward describes what it's like to live in a house with twenty five roommates. The description of all the different roommates' various activities, keeping things moving in the house much like things keep moving out in the city, is a near-perfect convergence of the country-raised girl with the city-based performer. The tune climaxes with a joyous sing-along chorus that sounds like all roommates present just bashed into the room and started harmonizing while the recording was going on. And this is where Alexa Woodward, and Speck, ultimately succeed. By making an album that sounds like an impromtu show in your living room, Woodward has united the relaxed feeling of sitting on the porch with the econo-necessities of making an album in the city.

Class Assignments
Some of the new things at this school?
Miniature Laptops
Be able to carry these around with you anywhere!
An olympic size swimming pool
For the ultimate swimming experience.
A Buffet (Lunch)
You can order food special from the chefs or just eat at the salad bar, the sub bar, and the food buffet!
Comfortable chairs
With the padding on the back, and the bottom.
Online classes
Instead of waking up at the earliest of times, go on your mini laptop and take your classes online! All of the teachers have an online class except for gym and workshop.
Laptop Use
In the future because the main objective would be to provide a cleaner environment for years ahead, in the schools of the future, paper and pencil would no longer be needed to turn in assignments or projects. Laptops the size of a box of crayons would allow you to complete school assignments and take notes in an orderly, organized manner. Forgot a research paper at your house? There is no need to worry, because your tiny computer could easily send digital assignments to your teacher via e-mail. Imagine all of the trees we could save by reducing paper use, and what harm can simply sending an e-mail do? Old computers could simply be recycled when they become invaluable. Converting over totally to computers in the future can help for a brighter, greener world for many generations to come.

10 Geeky Halloween Costumes For Inveterate Procrastinators

What's with the name?

If Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar were to engage in a successful television phenomenon it would be a significant to return to television for both of them. Williams hasn't been a television regular since Mork & Mindy, and while Gellar recently graced screens in Ringer, the show was short lived. And that's what, according to Deadline, is happening.
Gellar is taking a stab at the female lead role in the pilot for Crazy Ones, a David E. Kelley-written-and-produced workplace comedy at CBS is preparing for Williams to star in.
Crazy Ones is set in the world of advertising and stars Williams as Simon (Williams), the brilliant head of an ad agency working alongside his daughter Sydney (Gellar), the agency's creative director.
No doubt the two have differing views on the industry due to differences of gender and age! Also there's the family dynamic! I kid, I kid. Robin Williams' return to television will be an interesting thing to observe even without the involvement of a Buffy alumn. I wouldn't say that Gellar is primarily known for her comedy chops, but then again, it would be hard to believe that she didn't pick up some deadpan snarking skills on a Whedon set.

WINSTON-SALEM, NC - The Myrtle Beach Pelicans, Class A-Advanced affiliate of the Texas Rangers, extended their season long winning streak to five Wednesday, beating the Winston-Salem Dash 8-4 at BB&T Ballpark.
The game was decided in the second inning when the Pelicans loaded the bases with no score and two outs. Teodoro Martinez came through to break the deadlock with a two run double to the leftfield corner.
Odubel Herrera then walked to reload the bases ahead of an infield single from Hanser Alberto to score two more runs for a 4-0 lead. It was 8-0 after a single from Brett Nicholas and an error to put Christian Villanueva on for the second time in the frame.
The six run inning is the most productive one of the season for Myrtle Beach, topping five runs, accomplished five times previously.
Myrtle Beach added two runs of insurance in the sixth when the first four batters hit against reliever Ryan Buch.
Winston-Salem did stage a late comeback, however, scoring three times in the sixth to move within four at 8-4. The Dash then stranded the bases loaded in both the seventh and eighth innings before being dispatched easily by closer Ben Rowen in the ninth.
Randol Rojas earned his team leading seventh win, going five innings and allowing one run. Jake Petricka fell to 4-5 with the loss. The save was Rowen's fifth.
Myrtle Beach has now won five straight games and is 11-3 to begin the second half. Luke Jackson throws for the Pelicans Thursday for a 7:00pm first pitch. For more information head online to MyrtleBeachPelicans.com.

An interesting article on USA Today reveals the political leanings of Google employees--overwhelmingly democratic--at least among those who are willing to put their money where their mouth is.
"Google employees gave $207,650 to federal candidates for last year's elections, up from just $250 in 2000 when it was still a start-up. And 98% went to Democrats, the biggest share among top tech donors, a new USA TODAY campaign finance analysis shows."

Edgar Rice Burroughs' classic tale of interplanetary adventure arrives on the big screen in this sweeping sci-fi spectacle marking the live-action debut of Oscar-winning director Andrew Stanton (Finding Nemo, WALL-E). Civil War veteran John Carter (Taylor Kitsch) was still haunted by the violence he witnessed on the battlefield when he inexplicably awoke on the distant planet of Barsoom (Mars). Upon learning that the inhabitants of Barsoom are bracing for a major conflict and that war appears inevitable, John finds out that love is a rare commodity on the Red Planet, and summons the courage to be the hero the Martians have been hoping for. Meanwhile, John falls under the spell of the enchanting Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins), who struggles to suppress her compassion in a society known for its warlike ways. Willem Dafoe, Samantha Morton, and Mark Strong co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Kathryn Bigelow and Mark Boal, the Academy Award-winning duo behind The Hurt Locker, reteam for this drama detailing the hunt for Osama bin Laden, which stars Oscar nominee Jessica Chastain as the intelligence expert who dedicated a decade of her life to tracking down the world's most wanted terrorist. In the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the CIA began interrogating suspected Al Qaeda agents across the globe in a bid to locate the elusive bin Laden. Upon arriving at a CIA black site and witnessing the brutal interrogation tactics firsthand, driven operative Maya (Chastain) aids her unpredictable colleague Dan (Jason Clarke) in gathering the intelligence that will help bring their target to justice. Over the course of the next decade, numerous false leads and dead ends make the search seem more futile than ever. Meanwhile, numerous suicide bombings across the Middle East and Europe hint that Al Qaeda won't go down without a fight. Then, just when it seems as if the trail of clues has finally dried up, an old piece of evidence leads Maya to a suspect who may work directly for the man charged with planning the worst act of terrorism ever committed on American soil. Joel Edgerton, Edgar Ramirez, Mark Strong, Chris Pratt, and James Gandolfini co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A paraplegic ex-marine finds a new life on the distant planet of Pandora, only to find himself battling humankind alongside the planet's indigenous Na'vi race in this ambitious digital 3D sci-fi epic from Academy Award-winning Titanic director James Cameron. The film, which marks Cameron's first dramatic feature since 1997's Titanic, follows Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), a war veteran who gets called to the depths of space to pick up the job of his slain twin brother for the scientific arm of a megacorporation looking to mine the planet of Pandora for a valued ore. Unfortunately the biggest deposit of the prized substance lies underneath the home of the Na'vi, a ten-foot-tall, blue-skinned native tribe who have been at war with the security arm of the company, lead by Col. Miles Quaritch (Stephen Lang). Because of the planet's hostile atmosphere, humans have genetically grown half-alien/half-human bodies which they can jack their consciousnesses into and explore the world in. Since Jake's brother already had an incredibly expensive Avatar grown for him, he's able to connect with it using the same DNA code and experience first-hand the joys of Pandora while giving the scientific team, led by Grace Augustine (Sigourney Weaver) and Norm Spellman (Joel David Moore), some well-needed protection against the planet's more hostile forces.
On a chance meeting after getting separated from his team, Jake's Avatar is rescued by Neytiri (Zoe Saldana), a Na'vi princess, who brings him into her tribe in order to give the humans a second chance at relating to this new environment. When word gets out of his increasing time with the alien species, Quaritch enlists Jake to do some reconnaissance for the company, as they'd like to persuade the tribe to move their home before taking more drastic measures to harness the treasure hidden below. Yet as Jake becomes one with the tribe and begins to understand the secrets of Pandora, his conscience is torn between his new adopted world and the wheelchair-bound one awaiting him when the psychic connection to his Avatar is broken. Soon battle lines are drawn and Jake needs to decide which side he will fight on when the time comes. The film was shot on the proprietary FUSION digital 3D cameras developed by Cameron in collaboration with Vince Pace, and offers a groundbreaking mix of live-action dramatic performances and computer-generated effects. The revolutionary motion-capture system created for the film allows the facial expressions of actors to be captured as a virtual camera system enables them to see what their computer-generated counterparts will be seeing in the film, and Peter Jackson's Oscar-winning Weta Digital visual-effects house supervises Avatar's complex special effects. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, Rovi

An ordinary man has to protect his children against alien invaders in this science fiction thriller, freely adapted from the classic story by H.G. Wells. Ray Ferrier (Tom Cruise) is a dockworker living in New Jersey, divorced from his first wife Mary Ann (Miranda Otto) and estranged from his two children Rachel and Robbie (Dakota Fanning and Justin Chatwin), of whom he has custody on weekends. On one such visitation, looking after the kids becomes a little more difficult when, after a series of strange lighting storms hit his neighborhood, Ray discovers that a fleet of death-ray robotic spaceships have emerged nearby, part of the first wave of an all-out alien invasion of the Earth. Transporting his children from New York to Boston in an attempt to find safety at Mary Ann's parents' house, Ray must learn to become the protector and provider he never was in marriage. Also starring Tim Robbins, War of the Worlds was directed by Steven Spielberg, who had been planning the project for years, but set it aside until a wave of "alien invasion" films (led by Independence Day) had run its course. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Much as Steven Spielberg followed 1993's special-effects blockbuster Jurassic Park with a far more downbeat and personal project later the same year, Schindler's List, in 2005 after tearing up the box office with War of the Worlds the director closed out the year with a powerful and thoughtful drama about the human costs of international terrorism. The 1972 Olympics in Munich, Germany, were supposed to be a peaceful gathering of outstanding athletes from around the world, but on September 5, the games took a sinister turn when eight masked Palestinian terrorists invaded the Olympic village, killing two Israeli athletes and abducting nine others. The kidnappers demanded safe passage out of Germany in addition to the release of Arab prisoners in Israeli and German prisons, but when they arrived at the Munich airport they were met by German police and military forces, and in the melee that followed, all nine hostages were killed. In the wake of the killings, the Israeli government gave Mossad, the nation's intelligence agency, a special assignment -- to track down and eliminate the Palestinians responsible for the death of the Israeli athletes. A young and idealistic Mossad agent (Eric Bana) is assigned to the four-man unit created to wipe out the Olympic terrorists, but while he believes in serving his country, as their bloody work goes on he begins to buckle under the weight of his work and wonders if he can morally justify his nation's acts of revenge. Munich also stars Geoffrey Rush, Daniel Craig, Mathieu Kassovitz, and Ciarán Hinds. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Homer's sprawling tale of love and war in ancient Greece comes to the screen in all its grandeur in this epic-scale adventure. In 1193 B.C., Paris, Prince of Troy (Orlando Bloom), has fallen in love; however, the beautiful woman who has beguiled him is Helen, Queen of Sparta (Diane Kruger), who is wed to King Menelaus (Brendan Gleeson). While Helen is hardly immune to Paris' charms, this doesn't blunt Menelaus' fury when Paris steals her away from him. Menelaus' brother Agamemnon (Brian Cox), the power-hungry king of the Mycenaeans, is eager to expand his empire through Troy to the lands of the Aegean Sea, and he uses Paris' romantic slight against Menelaus as an excuse to wage an all-out war against the great walled city. Priam, King of Troy (Peter O'Toole), summons his armies, led by Prince Hector (Eric Bana), to meet the onslaught of Agamemnon's forces, but while the great city has yet to yield in a battle, Agamemnon has a formidable ally -- Achilles (Brad Pitt), a mighty and seemingly unstoppable warrior whose presence could tip the scales in Agamemnon's favor. Sean Bean, Julie Christie, Saffron Burrows, and Rose Byrne highlight the film's supporting cast. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The second sequel to the 1984 sci-fi action classic, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines is the first film without the involvement of director James Cameron. Instead, Jonathan Mostow, the man behind Breakdown and U-571, has stepped in to fill the shoes left vacant by Cameron. In addition, the role of John Connor from the second film has been recast, with In the Bedroom's Nick Stahl taking over for Edward Furlong. Set ten years after the events of 1991's Terminator 2: Judgement Day, the film finds Connor living on the streets as a common laborer. Sarah Connor, his mother, has since died, and their efforts in the second film have not stopped the creation of SkyNet artificial intelligence network. As he will still become the leader of the human resistance, Connor is once again targeted by a Terminator sent from the future by SkyNet. This new Terminator, T-X (Kristanna Loken), is a female and is more powerful than any of her predecessors. To protect Connor, the human resistance sends a new T-101 (Arnold Schwarzenegger) back from the future. Also starring Claire Danes, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines had its world premiere when it showed out of competition at the 2003 Cannes Film Festival. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi

A popular video game comes to the screen with this big-budget adventure starring Angelina Jolie as a buxom heroine recalling equal parts Indiana Jones and James Bond. Jolie is Lara Croft, a proper British aristocrat groomed at schools for the children of the elite. Croft leads a double life, however, as an acquirer of lost antiquities through questionable means, highly trained in combat skills with the help of a robotic opponent called Simon. Despite her exciting profession and a life of wealth and breeding, Lara pines for her father, Lord Croft (Jon Voight), whose passing left her orphaned. On the eve of a celestial event that will also mark the anniversary of Lord Croft's death, Lara comes up against an ancient organization called the Illuminati, represented by the sinister Powell (Iain Glen), who's in pursuit of an ancient relic with power over time and even death itself. With the aid of her high-tech support team, Lara travels to some exotic locales in search of the artifact, including a foray into a decrepit Asian temple guarded by lethal stone apes and other creatures that spring to life. Filmed at various locations in Great Britain as well as Iceland and the Angkor Wat temples of Cambodia, Tomb Raider co-stars Noah Taylor, Chris Barrie, Daniel Craig, Rachel Appleton, Leslie Phillips, Mark Collie, and Julian Rhind-Tutt. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

A 19-hour 16th-century Chinese opera written by Tang Xianzu is curtailed to this two-hour video showcase of the poetic dance and performance artistry of the critically acclaimed piece as it was performed on stage. Narrator Robert Powell summarizes the ellipses left by the drastic cut in length, and an hour-long making-of documentary follows the narrative performance. The tale of a young apparition recrudescing to the earthly world for her true love, this expressive love story offers incredible visual interpretation of real-world barriers like parental disapproval and warring on the homefront. ~ Sarah Sloboda, Rovi

In the 1860's, industrialist Hugh Crain financed the construction of Hill House, a beautiful but forbidding mansion where Crain hoped to house a wife and children. However, Crain died an unexplained death at Hill House, and ever since tales have circulated that the mansion is haunted by evil spirits. 130 years later, Dr. David Marrow (Liam Neeson), long fascinated by the Hill House legend, brings three people there for what he tells them will be a study in sleep disorders. Theo (Catherine Zeta-Jones) is outwardly brave, but it soon becomes evident that Hill House's sinister reputation has her on edge. Luke (Owen Wilson) quickly finds himself wondering: if this is really about studying sleep, why bring everyone to a haunted house? And Nell (Lili Taylor) finds herself inexplicably drawn to the mansion, with a fascination that soon bears terrifying fruit as the true story of Hill House is revealed. The Haunting was directed by Jan de Bont; the screenplay was written by David Self and based on Shirley Jackson's novel The Haunting Of Hill House, which was also the basis for Robert Wise's 1963 film The Haunting, widely regarded as one of the screen's finest ghost stories. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Joe Dante directed this satirical action-comedy about talking tech toys accidentally juiced-up with military microchips. After the defense industry firm Globotech takes over a small toy company, Heartland Play Systems' CEO Gil Mars (Denis Leary) gives the green light to develop a new line of action figures, requesting an upgrade to more realistic figures from Heartland toy designers Larry Benson (Jay Mohr) and fumbling Irwin Wayfair (David Cross). Mars wants toys that act like the ones in TV commercials. The results are fierce fighting figures, the Commando Elite, programmed to seek out and destroy the kindly alien-like Gorgonites. In an effort to make the toys as natural as possible, Benson inserts Globotech's most powerful military computer chips. Meanwhile, in quiet Winslow Corners, Ohio, toy-store owner Stuart Abernathy (Kevin Dunn) and his 15-year-old son Alan (Gregory Smith) are stuck in a failing business, so when Heartland truckdriver Joe (Dick Miller) stops by with the Commando and Gorgonite toys, Alan is convinced they will be hot sellers, commenting, "Maybe this store will finally make a little money." With blistering blows to their blister packs, the Commandos burst out, receive orders from their leader Chip Hazard (voice of Tommy Lee Jones) and ready for an all-out assault on the Gorgonites. When the Gorgonite leader Archer (voice of Frank Langella) begins communicating with Alan, it causes the Commandos to perceive humans as another enemy, simply by their association with the "Gorgonite scum," so an attack on the Abernathy house begins. Unfortunately, the Gorgonites can offer only limited assistance, since they have been programmed to lose. The film combines animatronics, puppetry, and computer animation. The Commando Elite voices include surviving actors from Robert Aldrich's The Dirty Dozen (1967), while the Gorgonite voices reunited several This Is Spinal Tap (1983) cast members. A dedication to Phil Hartman (the voice of Phil Fimple) after the closing credits features a brief Hartman outtake. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

This Steven Spielberg-directed exploration into a long-ago episode in African-American history recounts the trial that followed the 1839 rebellion aboard the Spanish slave ship Amistad and captures the complex political maneuverings set in motion by the event. Filmed in New England and Puerto Rico, the 152-minute drama opens with a pre-credit sequence showing Cinque (Djimon Hounsou) and the other Africans in a violent takeover of the Amistad. Captured, they are imprisoned in New England where former slave Theodore Joadson (Morgan Freeman), viewing the rebels as "freedom fighters," approaches property lawyer Baldwin (Matthew McConaughey), who attempts to prove the Africans were "stolen goods" because they were kidnapped. Running for re-election, President Martin Van Buren (Nigel Hawthorne) overturns the lower court's decision in favor of the Africans. Former President John Quincy Adams (Anthony Hopkins) is reluctant to become involved, but when the case moves on to the Supreme Court, Adams stirs emotions with a powerful defense. The storyline occasionally cuts away to Spain where the young Queen Isabella (Anna Paquin) plays with dolls; she later debated the Amistad case with seven U.S. presidents. The character portrayed by Morgan Freeman is a fictional composite of several historical figures. For authentic speech, the Africans speak the Mende language, subtitled during some scenes but not others. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

Just when you'd think that scientists would realize dinosaurs and humans don't mix, along comes The Lost World: Jurassic Park to prove you wrong. In this sequel, John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) summons chaos theorist and onetime colleague Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) to his home with some startling information -- while nearly everything at his Jurassic Park had been destroyed, engineers were also operating a second site, where other dinosaurs, resurrected through DNA cloning technology, had been kept in hiding. Hammond has learned the dinosaurs on the second island are alive and well and even breeding; Hammond wants Malcolm to observe and document the reptiles before Hammond's financiers can get to them. Malcolm declares he had enough of the dinosaurs the first time out, but decides to make the trip when he finds out that his girlfriend, paleontologist Sarah Harding (Julianne Moore), is already there. However, Ian and Sarah aren't the only visitors expected on the island; a camera crew led by ecological activist Nick Van Owen (Vince Vaughn) is on the way, as is Roland Tembo (Pete Postlethwaite), a world-class wild game hunter who is supposed to round up the dinosaurs and who hopes to bag a prehistoric trophy for himself in the process. This sequel to Jurassic Park boasted even more impressive special effects than the first film, though the acting and screenplay aren't always at the same level. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Based on the popular cartoon character, this family-oriented "ghost story" is about a not-so-scary spirit who bonds with a little girl (Christina Ricci). The eternally irritable Ms. Carrigan (Cathy Moriarty) discovers that the only thing she's been left in her recently departed father's will is a rickety old house in New England. Naturally, the woman is furious about this, until her "close personal friend" and assistant, Dibbs (Eric Idle of Monty Python fame), discovers a secret message that a treasure may be concealed somewhere in the house. The two take off for Maine, only to learn that the house is haunted by Casper "the friendly ghost" and his three ghostly uncles Stinky, Stretch, and Fatso. After futilely recruiting an exorcist (Don Novello, more or less reviving his Father Guido Sarducci character from Saturday Night Live) and a "professional ghost exterminator" (Dan Aykroyd), she brings in a "ghost psychiatrist" (Bill Pullman) and his daughter Kat (Ricci). Innocently attracted to the young girl, Casper befriends Kat as they try to save the ghosts' home from the evil Carrigan. Eye-popping special effects highlight this magical story that touches (albeit lightly) on the theme of what lies at the heart of human desires. Clint Eastwood, Rodney Dangerfield, Mel Gibson and The Crypt Keeper (of Tales from the Crypt) all make cameos as apparitions in the mirror Bill Pullman looks into in the house. ~ Don Kaye, Rovi

The good (if not fully evolved) citizens of Bedrock make their way to the big screen in this live-action adaptation of the popular animated series of the 1960s. Fred Flintstone (John Goodman) and his best friend Barney Rubble (Rick Moranis) work together at the Slate and Company Rock Quarry. When Fred loans Barney some money that allows him and his wife Betty (Rosie O'Donnell) to adopt a child, Barney is looking for a way to show his gratitude. Barney thinks he's found one when the executives at Slate and Company announce that they're giving all their employees intelligence tests to help determine future promotions. When Barney switches his high-scoring test with Fred's, his plan works -- but not quite the way he had hoped: Fred is deemed executive material and given a big promotion, complete with a sexy secretary (Halle Berry) who makes his wife Wilma (Elizabeth Perkins) jealous, while Barney is soon out of a job and can't pay his bills. Bill Hanna and Joseph Barbara, who created the original television series, make cameo appearances here; Elizabeth Taylor gives a fine comic performance as Wilma's nagging mother, and Harvey Korman provides the voice of the Dictabird. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Steven Spielberg's phenomenally successful sci-fi adventure thriller is graced by state-of-the-art special effects from the team of Stan Winston, Phil Tippett and Michael Lantieri from George Lucas's Industrial Light & Magic. The film follows two dinosaur experts -- Dr. Alan Grant (Sam Neill) and Dr. Ellie Sattler Laura Dern) -- as they are invited by eccentric millionaire John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) to preview his new amusement park on an island off Costa Rica. By cloning DNA harvested from pre-historic insects, Hammond has been able to create living dinosaurs for his new Jurassic Park, an immense animal preserve housing real brachiosaurs, dilophosaurs, triceratops, velociraptors, and a Tyrannosaur Rex. Accompanied by cynical scientist Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum), who is obsessed with chaos theory, and Hammond's two grandchildren (Ariana Richards and Joseph Mazzello), they are sent on a tour through Hammond's new resort in computer controlled touring cars. But as a tropical storm hits the island, knocking out the power supply, and an unscrupulous employee (Wayne Knight) sabotages the system so that he can smuggle dinosaur embryos out of the park, the dinosaurs start to rage out of control. Grant then has to bring Hammond's grandchildren back to safety as the group is pursued by the gigantic man-eating beasts. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

I have this weird feeling that the coffin that is locked is the original doppelgänger or a mysterious sibling we don't know about.
I was sad about Jeremy, when he cut off that hybrid's head I thought he'd become a hybrid slayer or something. Going out for revenge on the hybrids, would have been interesting to watch. What Jeremy said to Tyler I believe got to him, he's lost Caroline and his friends because of Klaus. I read a spoiler somewhere that said Tyler will question Klaus when Klaus has a plan that could potentially hurt Caroline. The Delena kiss could have definitely come at a better time... Damon had just said that Stefan saved his life and then he kissed Elena. Just didn't feel right. It was sweet and it obviously meant something but I just think it could have come at a better time. I think next episode it would be good if we see more Tyler again, he's a very important character.
One more question... DOES ANYONE MISS ELIJAH AS MUCH AS I DO?
Best part was the DE lipscapades. I loathe shipping but I secretly view them as tv's most incredible couple. *runs and hides*
this was such a good way to start the 2012 TVD, i am happy for Delena, i am soryr for those who dint like it, "for those who doit it, all i have to say is build a bridge and get over it"
I am now squarely Delena. I'm sorry, its a tv show and I never felt Stelena like I feel Delena. Its called dynamic romantic chemistry. They had it WAY before Nina and Ian got together too. BTW to the few whining Stelena shippers talkin' bout "its only cuz they're together in real life"....Ever read the books? Lol. How about A book? ;)
Vampire lover the reason why I expected more from the DE kiss is that they've been building on this for way to long and teasing the poor DE fans for 2 1/2 seasons and I was like that's it. I'm sorry Damon may of showed passion but Elena was huh as usual. Also another reason why it wasn't so epic is that he tells her Stefan was saving his life and so Damon returns the favor by kissing Elena? Lol As for why Forwood kiss was more epic! Tyler kisses Caroline because of how much she cared for him and that she was willing to risk her life for him. Plus it came out of no where. Unlike the DE kiss was expected.
NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Delena sucks,Damon is such a jerk.Elena should be with Stefan. Bravo Vampire Diaries for the awful 3d season.You completely RUINED stefan and now he is a bad guy and you make damon good, Well done.I'm SO dissapointed.
@B...Stefan is acting that way because if you recall klaus made him turn of his humanity. Plus Stefan is pissed at Klaus so he wants revenge. He's is treating Elena so poorly because deep down he still cares for her and knows the beat way to protect her is to push her away an act like he doesn't care. Also, I don't know if you read the books, but Elena is constantly torn between the two Salvatore brothers and frequently kisses both and even shares blood with both. The writers of the show are just giving us a little more from tr books' plot. Don't worry...IMO the kiss won't lead anywhere. It will most likely be a one time thing for awhile.
Why is this show being compared BTVS, it wasn't created as a replacement, it was created when fangirls were high on hot, forbidden love, vampire shit. There's almost no comparison, except the vampires. Are all vampire shows just compared to BTVS?
Guysn there are always gonna be lovers and always be haters. My advice, if you disagree with Bored Now, just ignore him. People like him/her feed on all this attention you give them.As for me, loved me some Bonnie, delena kiss but was really sad that Jeremy had to leave. Torrey was a little disappointing as Meredith, but all in all great start. About the delena kiss, I don't know why people would expect their kiss to be as heated as forwood's since elena still has some feelings for stefan. I'm just hoping for a lot more DE kisses.
You just said everything I was thinking! Thank you for putting it into the right words.. I just hope the writers don't screw up any further

Network Appliance sues Sun over ZFS patent infringement - what this means for open source
Network Appliance just announced that it is suing Sun Microsystems for patent infringement related to Sun's ZFS technology. Dave Hitz, co-founder and executive vice president of NetApp, pinged me to notify me of the suit and referenced his blog. I'll be following up with Sun's position on the suit as soon as it becomes clear.
About 18 months ago, Sun's lawyers contacted NetApp with a list of patents they say we infringe, and requested that we pay them lots of money. We responded in two ways. First, we closely examined their list of patents. Second, we identified the patents in our portfolio that we believe Sun infringes.… Read more

Holidays Recipes
Masala Chai Eggnog Recipe
This weekend, in the spirit of the holidays, we wanted to make some eggnog. We've made eggnog and "soynog" so many times before that it seemed like time to mix it up a little. If you're a regular reader, you might know how much I love masala chai. I'm a weakling when it comes to caffeine but once in a while, especially when we have large family gatherings, we make loads of the fragrant chai and I just can't resist sipping a few cups. So why not combine the two?
Eggnog already has nutmeg, so adding the spices used in masala chai just enhances the flavor. The cardamom in particular really shines through. If you're adventurous (and not making this for kids), you could also spike it with a little rum or cognac.

Pumpkin Pain d'Epices Parfait Recipe
I made a pain d'epices last week and it most of it went very quickly. Pain d'epices translates to "spiced bread"; it's similar to gingerbread with the exception that no ginger is used. Also it's made with rye flour, honey and spices such as star anise, nutmeg, cinnamon and clove. I'll post the recipe for this moist bread next week. Tonight, I used the spiced bread remnants and made beautiful layered pumpkin cream parfaits for the holidays.
To complete the French dessert, I made it literally look "parfait" with a spun sugar decoration!

Foie Gras Poele with Granny Smith Apples
I love foie gras. I don't get to have it as much since moving to the States, but I received some from my very kind friend Steve over at The Milk Pail Market. And if you like this French delicacy, you will love what I accompanied it with. I sautéed diced Granny Smith apples in the rendered fat from the foie gras. It's a very simple dish but for sure will wow your Valentine if s/he likes refined French cuisine. My foie gras poêlé aux pommes Granny Smith is a delight.
The best part is that there are not a lot of ingredients involved in this dish. I simply used foie gras, Granny Smith apples, freshly pressed apple juice, apple cider vinegar and a little chicken stock. For a contrast of crunch you could add coarsely chopped hazelnuts with a drizzle of hazelnut oil as garnish. Toasted gingerbread would also make a great addition.

Foie Gras Creme Brulee Recipe (+Giveaway)
I've mentioned it in the past; even though it might raise some eyebrows, foie gras, or duck/goose liver, is my guilty pleasure. Maman would always serve this French delicacy during our holiday dinner. If you've never tasted foie gras before, it's like eating a piece of intensely flavored, semi-softened butter.
I got a lovely whole duck foie gras from The Milk Pail Market in Mountain View, CA. Instead of serving it as a main course (I'll publish a main course recipe soon), I added the foie gras to a savory custard and made crèmes brûlées. Obviously, this is not your ordinary vanilla flavored dessert crème brûlée. I made savory crème brulees in the past with ingredients like garlic, so this isn't exactly new territory for me. The result was amazing; foie gras and sweet flavors pair perfectly together. I added specks of foie gras to the custard as well as a large piece in the center of each ramekin. I also topped them with a larger chunk on top of the sugar crust as a reminder of the flavoring inside. I served the fancy starter with toasted bread so the foie gras could be spread onto the toasts.
This weekend giveaway is for Bay Area readers or people who are able to redeem their prize on site. The Milk Pail Market, which happens to be my favorite local market, is generously donating five $25 gift certificates. You could put this to good use and create a marvelous Christmas dinner for your loved ones. At any rate, I love this market; you can find a wide variety of cheeses, (check out the fromage blanc), French products such as Mamie Nova yogurts and tons of other European products as well. And don't forget to try their famous croissants! Be sure to stop by and discover these fabulous ingredients. The address is 2585 California Street, Mountain View, CA 94040. To participate to our giveaway, visit our 25 Days of Giveaways page and enter today. Good luck!

Easy Party Appetizers: Foie Gras Stuffed Prunes with Almond Tuiles
Foie gras stuffed dried plums are my guilty pleasure. The dried plums (prunes) are baked with maple syrup, and to enhance the texture and flavor, I add a pinch of fleur de sel and a sprinkle of crumbled almond tuile cookies. These little appetizers will definitely be served by the dozens during our New Year Eve's dinner.
I know this recipe might raise some eyebrows on several levels. I've always loved, perhaps worshipped, the French culinary delicacy called foie gras. If you've never tasted foie gras before, it's like eating a piece of intensely flavored, semi-softened butter. Some people think it's an abomination and constitutes cruelty to animals. I believe that in Chicago for a time there was even a ban on foie gras and that the sale and production of foie gras is still illegal in California.
The other thing you might find odd is that I chose to use prunes in an elegant appetizer. I was surprised to learn from Lulu that in America, prunes are marketed as digestive aids and have a rather negative stigma. That is not the case in France. Prunes are often served as a snack for children, and just yesterday I saw them on a fruit and cheese platter at the end of a lovely meal we had at my friend's home. They're now marketed in the U.S. as dried plums, not prunes, because there was so much negativity associated with prunes as a laxative.
I hope this recipe will inspire you to try new ingredients, or perhaps old ingredients in new ways.

As leaders on both sides of the Atlantic wrestle with the problems posed by the financial crisis, populations in advanced economies are increasingly restive.
Protests in Greece, the threat of a new wave of strikes in the UK, and vocal opposition to the US administration's attempts to solve the financial crisis have helped add to the feeling that all of the people are not happy any of the time.
"The feeling is that internationalism has really arrived at a price that's too high," Lord Malloch-Brown, former UN Deputy Secretary-General and author of The Unfinished Global Revolution, told CNBC at the "summer Davos" Dalian World Economic Forum conference Thursday.
"While elites struggle weakly to find a solution, public opinion is stridently going off in the opposite direction."

But by its very nature, Wolseley has little visibility of future trading. It looks like being a long haul, with no particular reason for any sharp improvement.
The shares have been ticking up over the past month and on approaching 14 times this years earnings, could be vulnerable to profit-taking. Too soon to chase says the Times.
Aberdeen Asset Management is now so large that even a small percentage movement in the size of its assets equates to the GDP of a small African country: in this case, as it happens, Chad. The shares have had a strong run, up almost a fifth since January. But they are tightly held, with Japans Mitsubishi holding 16.5% and Credit Suisse 21%. Aberdeen trades at a narrow discount to the sector. Hold says the Times.
Personal Group specialises in employee benefits, focusing mostly on blue- collar workers and its core products are voluntary ones, meaning that employees must opt in. The stock trades on multiples of under 12 times this year's forward earnings, and on under 11 times next year's. The yield goes from a tasty 6.9% for 2010 to 7.1% for next year. Can the company keep up the pace given the economic outlook? It's worth holding to find out, says the Independent.
After a protracted bid battle, Korea National Oil Corp (KNOC) has finally won control over Dana Petroleum. Investors can take up KNOCs offer or sell in the market at a 1p premium to get the cash immediately. Sell says the Telegraph.
International Ferro was cautious in its outlook statement, but said that the long-term demand for stainless steel was robust. Despite the strength of the rand and increasing energy costs, the Telegraph remains positive on the company. The shares are trading on a June 2011 earnings multiple of 10.4 based on current forecasts, falling to just 3.6 times in 2012. The shares remain a buy despite the falls says the Telegraph.

Empty restaurants sort of scare me. Last night I went with a friend to a new Italian restaurant in Los Angeles and it was empty, except for one other table. It made me uneasy.
Strange thoughts went through my mind. Is the food that bad? Is the service terrible? What's lurking behind the door to the kitchen? It was all sort of Hitchcock-like—I get sort of movie dramatic in La La. Or maybe it was because I was with a friend, James Orr, who is a movie director (and a wine collector).
Anyway, the service was pretty bad to say the least, and the decor had a sort of unfinished feel to it. The menu looked good, with lots of sophisticated and hearty Italian dishes, from starters of octopus carpaccio with tomatoes and tripe braised in a spicy tomato sauce with grilled polenta to main courses of roasted monkfish crusted with tomato and olives on a bed of sautéed eggplant and tomato to ricotta-, spinach- and black truffle-stuffed breast of guinea hen with glazed onion and winter vegetables.
We ate all those dishes and they were very, very good, as good as they might be at Valentino or many other high end Los Angeles Italian restaurants. But the food just didn't taste right in an empty restaurant. It's like going into an empty art gallery during an opening exhibition. It makes you wonder if you're the only fool in town.
Anyway, we weren't that foolish going to this restaurant, which will remain unnamed since it has only been open for a week. Prices were too high for the neighborhood, with starters from $10 to $19 and mains from $25 to $36. The wine list is reasonable in price, and we did find a bottle of the 2006 Wine of the Year: 2001 Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova.
It was $135 on the list, which isn't cheap, but apparently some retailers are selling it for more now. And we were splitting the bill, so we ordered it. Orr hadn't tried it before, and I told him that our friend James Laube had just blogged about it the same day—we couldn't let Laube have all the fun.
The wine was as fantastic as ever. It started off very perfumed with aromas of crushed cherries, dried flowers, minerals and hints of wood. The palate was tight and firm, yet balanced and silky. It evolved quickly in the glass generating a rich, round silky and delicious palate. Orr was impressed, commenting, "This is some wine."
I wasn't going to disagree! It just would have been nice if some other people in the restaurant were around to overhear our conversation.
Totv — La Quinta, CA — February 6, 2007 8:43pm ET
I'm opening a bottle of the Casanova di Neri in two weeks at a friends house. I can't wait to try it! We will also be having the 2004 Hundred Acre Ancient Way Shiraz, 2004 Alban Reva Syrah, and the 2003 Pahlmeyer Red. Should be a great evening! Have fun in La La James! Dustin.
Tom Benson — Bellevue, WA — February 6, 2007 10:58pm ET
James, You have given us some great blogs from your recent travels but I'm assuming you are soon heading back to Italy. It seems like it has been a while since you did an Italy travel guide. On our last trip to Tuscany your previous Spectrator travel tips were extremely helpful. We'll be traveling there again for a stay near Siena with a group of friends in 2008. It would be really great if you could do an update sometime this year? Regards, Tom
John Lin — TW — February 7, 2007 6:54am ET
James, I shared a bottle of '99 Casanova di Neri BdM Tenuta Nuova a few nights ago with a friend over dinner. It was so backward and tight throughout dinner. Only the next morning did the remaining 1/4 bottle started to produce a perfume of any significance! Definitely smelled and tasted better than 12hrs. ago! Is this typical of BdMs from this vintage?
Dan Jaworek — Chicago — February 7, 2007 9:03am ET
I know what you mean about the empty restaurant thing. I was out to dinner the other night with some people from DC. They wanted a "good Chicago steak". So we went to Mortons and it was empty except for one other table. You're right it just doesn't seem right. For some reason it lowers your expectations and makes you feel a little uncomfortable. Even if you know the food will be good, you feel like you missed the boat socially because its obvious that everyone is some place else. Its stupid but true. Dan J.
Troy Peterson — Burbank, CA — February 7, 2007 10:53am ET
Still not tooooo bad of an experience I see!
I'm with Tom Benson, off topic but sincerely in need of guidance on a trip to Italy later this year. From Venice to Siena to Rome to Capri, what 3 wine experiences shouldn't I miss?

James, Tom,I can't find the travel tips you mention anywhere. Can you point me to them? I'll be in Montalcino end of February, and sure would appreciate reading up first. Been there lots of times, but a few tips always come in handy. Thanks.
John Flaska — Laguna Niguel, CA — February 7, 2007 12:02pm ET
James, get out of the high priced areas and go have some great Italian food at Casa Bianca in Eagle Rock. The food is great, the pizza is the best, look for the old neon sign outside that says "Pizza Pie". You'll need to bring your own wine, unless you want to drink wine from a jug. JOHN
James Suckling — — February 7, 2007 4:44pm ET
Thanks John. I will try it. Andrew. If you find the story from the late 1990s on Montalcino, nothing has changed. It's all good. And Troy. All those cities are just cool to walk and hang. Go to Da Corvo restaurant in Venice and Pizzeria ?? in Capri. I love hanging in those places eating great food and drinking yummy wine. In Siena, sit outside and eat at Le Logge and drink the owner's Brunello.
James Suckling — — February 7, 2007 4:45pm ET
John. 1999 Brunellos are a bit tough. There tannins are coarser than the 1997s or 2001s. So, I would say that's it...
Tom Benson — Bellevue, WA — February 8, 2007 10:56am ET
Andrew, I found the article under the archives at http://www.winespectator.com/Wine/Archives/Issue_Index/0,1278,67,00.html It appears that there is also a Florence article back a few years earlier.
James Peterson — San Antonio, Texas — February 8, 2007 3:41pm ET
My wife and I visited Montalcino in Aug 2002 (stocking up on 1997s), and we stayed right on the edge of the walled city (Hotel Vecchia Oliviera - friendly mgt, good parking, and easy walk into the city). Our favorite place to eat in the city was Taverna Grappolo Blu (make a reservation). The best tour/tasting/lunch was at Castello Banfi (compliments of connections in the business). The funniest spur of the moment visit was to Lisini where the old Italian lady had me run my own credit card purchase. Spend some time perusing the small wine shops in the city. I found a magnum of the 1997 Altesino Montosoli at a very good price when everyone else was either out of it or had it overpriced (thanks to the WS 98). Montalcino was our favorite part of the Tuscany trip. A truly great place to visit. P.S. James, I found the Frescobaldi CastelGiocondo 2001 for about $25/btl here in Germany. Can you believe it? - Jim
Paul Murray — La Canada, CA — February 9, 2007 7:08pm ET
James, I have a bottle of the '95 Altesino Montosoli. When would you recommend cracking it open? Your original tasting notes said "best after 2004", but does that mean any time after 2004 won't improve the wine?
James Suckling — — February 9, 2007 7:18pm ET
I would give it a go whenever you wish but it should improve for another five to 10 years. Best after 2004 means that it's better not to try it until after 2004.
B Vedaa — June 9, 2007 5:22pm ET
It's June now. James, can you reveal the name of this "scary restaurant" in LA? I'll take my Casanova with me. Thanks!
