Okay, I bought three of these last time. They're fantastic! I've always told people, "I'll do that when pigs fly," so it fit my lifestyle. I bought one for me and one for each of my daughters. They're wonderful and work really well...plus, they're Gund. I'm not being facetious or obnoxious right now. I LOVE my flying pigs and so do my daughters! Plus, I paid a helluva lot more, from this same website.

I got a runt in my last litter of flying pigs, so thought that these pigs might give it a little extra lovin' and attention to pull it through.

Cincinnati, OH (Sports Network) - The Cincinnati Reds avoided arbitration with Mat Latos by agreeing to a two-year contract with the right-hander on Tuesday.
The deal is reportedly worth $11.5 million. Latos made $550,000 last season. Eligible for arbitration for the first time, he had asked for $4.7 million in arbitration and had been offered $4.15 million.
Latos went 14-4 with a 3.48 ERA in 33 starts last season, his first with the Reds. He threw two complete games back-to-back on June 25 and 30.
The 25-year-old is 41-33 with a 3.41 ERA in 105 career games with the Padres and Reds.
Homer Bailey is the only player left on Cincinnati's arbitration slate.

Public Safety has many different amenities on campus to help students feel safe. The first is the safety staff, which features Public Safety officers on patrol 24 hours a day. Another service is the emergency notification system which sends alerts to students and staff via e-mail and text messages. Plus, there are student desk receptionists that monitor who comes in and out of the residence halls during the evening hours. Whether a campus is set in an urban setting or in a rural one, there's always a chance that something can go wrong. The best way to stay safe on any campus is just to be smart and think before you do. One thing to remember is never walk alone in the dark. Campus escorts are available for walking to and from on-campus facilities at night.

The Melting Pot - Gaithersburg
Online Reservations
It took 10 minutes to be seated even though we had a reservation, took another 10 minutes for our waiter to get our first order, and another 10 minutes to get our drinks. Regardless, our waiter was professional and did a great job throughout the rest of our meal. We would come again.
Every time my family goes here its a special event! Its the perfect date nite, the perfect family night, the perfect celebration night. You just cant go wrong.
The atmosphere was perfect, food was amazing and the service was phenomenal. I would recommend this estblishment to any couple celebrating an occasion or for a small group of couples to have a kids free evening out.
I love that at the Melting Pot it is not just a meal but an experiance
Oh, my! My girlfriends and I haven't been to The Melting Pot in ages and when we discussed getting together to decide on Theatre season, I suggested we take advantage of the Ladies' Night Out!! It was such a fun night and I got there about 5 minutes late but just in time to partake in the first of two bottles of a yummy Cab Sav!!! Our waiter (I didn't get his name!) was sooooooooooo attentive and refreshed our memories on what was what. We never felt rushed and we were able to come to a quick decision on the 2013-2014 theatre season and indulge ourselves on the food. The hardest part of the evening was trying to decide on our chocolate fondue dessert!!!! All in all, it was a nice outing away from hubbys and kids!!!
My recently minted fiance and I went here the other night for our anniversary dinner. We got the 4 Course Experience for Two, with the 4 Cheese Appetizer, she had the Caesar and I had the Spinach-Mushroom salad. For the entree course, we got the bourgiougnion with the Classic--which was a tremendous amount of food. We had to cook up about half the meat and have it boxed to take home. For dessert, we had Cookies & Cream Marshmallow Dream, but substituted white chocolate for dark chocolate, which was fantastic. The restaurant also provided balloons and three chocolate covered strawberries for our enjoyment, waiting at the table when we arrived. The one downside was that they've switched from Granny Smith apples to pears, which are too mild.
I have wanted to go for a while but couldn't see paying over $100 for just a regular night out. My husband and I went for our anniversary and were thrilled by our experience. It is very dark so if you're not sure what you're planning to order by looking online beforehand, bring a small light/cell phone to help you out. Our waitress, Bethany (?) couldn't have been sweeter. She explained everything very well and made suggestions according to our likes. The portions were bigger than expected. I abhor wasting food and was able to take home enough leftovers to made another meal the next day. If we were not planning on saving room for dessert, I'm sure we could have eaten all but a few bites with no need to take home a box. No complaints here.
If you're looking for a dining experience, not just a meal, this is the place. My husband and I went here to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary. The tables are very private and the lighting was great, which helped to make the evening more romantic. For that reason, I would not recommend it for a 1st date. Definitely more for people you are comfortable with. We had the 4 course option, which was a lot of food. I had the Classic entree and my husband had the Cajun. It took us about 3 hours to get through our meal, but everything was delicious. The service here was also impeccable. One of the most polite and courteous staff I've encountered in a restaurant. We definitely plan on going back to try some of the other options.
While we know it's better suited for adult romantics, we took our daughter for her 10th birthday because we knew she'd love the all of the variety, tasks, etc. Very good and pleasant experience. The staff had everything right and made her feel special. Fondue takes a long time anyway; unfortunately, our very good waiter got bogged down between the entrée and dessert, so the experience was about 40 minutes too long. Luck of the draw. I recommend highly.
Went to Melting Pot on a Monday at 5pm. I had asked for the 3 rose package and on the table perfectly assembled was the rose and ballon vase. later the hostess came and took our picture and we left with it in frame. Our server Richard was spectacular. Explained everything and timed his "checking on us" perfectly. We had a great experience and would definitley dine again.
We had a wonderful dinner, as usual, at the Melting Pot.
The service was very good. The server explained everything really well and was attentive to our needs. The food experience was very unique and fun for the family. We thought the music was a bit obnoxious and loud. The music style was a "cheesy jazz" with a loud saxophone that pierced the ears. On occasion, the music would mellow out but it was too infrequent. The cost was relatively high.
Good place for "something different" - fondue in different courses. Great way to have a lingering conversation to catch up with friends or relatives - You can nibble, cook, nibble, easily for 2 or 3 hours without being hungry or feeling rushed. Cooking as you eat means no cold food! Our server offered additional small bowls of food so everyone was full without being stuffed. Long, slow, and easy. Our favorites were the cheddar cheese (swiss was very bland), coq au vin cooking method (some thought the bouillion was a tad salty) and the yin/yang chocolate. Our server was friendly and quite attentive without being obtrusive.
Victor, our server, was amazing. He went through everything so we'd understand the concept. He even brought out both salad dressings to try, which I'm glad he did because my first choice wasn't too great. He also made a lot of recommendations which were all good. The managers were also really cool, calm, and collected. I plan on returning.
The Melting Pot is an event for us. We celebrated our anniversary. We took our high school aged son along as well. It was a busy Saturday evening, but the staff still helped us feel special and well cared for. The food was good and we left satisfied.
The cheese and chocolate fondues were outstanding. My California salad was excellent. My husband's Caesar salad was average. We were not as impressed with the coq au vin cooking style for the entrées. It did nothing to complement the marinades. We used it for cooking the ravioli which was delicious We were there for restaurant week so the price of the 2 meals was less than what it usually costs. When we go again, I would order the ravioli as my entrée and skip the meat. All in all, we had an enjoyable experience.
Have never had a bad meal here. Out server Sarah was great. The meal pace was pleasant. They never rush you. We love fondue and enjoy a meal here about once a month. They had a great deal for restaurant week. Also I held a surprise party for my husband for his 50th birthday there. It is a great place to have a party with plenty of time to talk to your guests and enjoy a meal with them. The manager always stops by to make sure that everything is to your liking. It's great that they care so much about your dining experience.
excellent service and excellent food. Fun too to cook your own food!
Food was great and really liked the 1920's inspired cocktails! Our server, Victor, did a excellent job taking care of us.
We go here all the time for dinner and dessert bc my family loves the food and great service. However, this last time we went just for dessert for a special treat for my birthday and we noticed a definite difference in the service when we stated we were just going to do the dessert. While I understand that a typical family of four dinner here is around 150 and our dessert was only 60. We still expected the same treatment and friendliness that we usually receive. Overall wonderful food and chocolate as always though.
As a lot of people have mentioned, the waiting time for the food can be pretty lengthy. But the food was good. Nothing unique or special about it, but for the cooking styles and the fondue. Victor is a good waiter.
This is a pleasant restaurant for a special occasion. Fondue is a novelty that diners of all ages can enjoy. The price, however, is prohibitive. For what one is getting (good food, but not haute cuisine), a bill that can easily top $100 for 4 people is rather steep.
We went here to use our amazon local deal for a four course meal and it was delicious. We have been there before, so it wasn't new. I didn't really like the pork medallions that came with our entree, but it was better than the pasta that usually comes with these deals, so I guess I won't complain too much. Our fave cheese is the fiesta and my fave chocolate is the cookies and cream marshmallow dream. Delicious!
We were first time diners and our experience was terrific. Our server Cory was fantastic, he explained everything to us in great detail, he was even training a new server and our service was still awesome. The food was great!!!
Service was excellent. Our waiter knew about what he was talking about, was very personable, and kept checking up on how we were doing. Food was good. Wish we had slightly larger portions. The interior lighting was just slightly too dark for my taste and it was hard to see and admire the food. I liked that the tables were "hidden" into booths which provided for a more romantic and priate evening. Overall, great experience, great atmosphere, great service.
We enjoyed The Melting Pot once again, this being our second time for our anniversary once again. The food was great as usual, great service by our server Nicholas who was fantastic and I suggest the Mojo which was also suggested to us as a broth. I highly recommend!! Also, Opentable is a fantastic resource and very efficient!
We had such a pleasant time visiting the melting pot in Gaithersburg- our server was Victor he was very knowledgeable and so kind and patient with us -my husband and I weren't quite sure what we wanted to order since we are on a diet and we were very picky choosy -Victor were so helpful being suggestive & patient -thank you so much. we enjoyed ourselves so much.
The restaurant provides a quiet intimate setting. Each booth is set up so that you almost feel as though you are the only people in the restaurant. The ambiance is attractive and provides a somewhat hip sophisticated feel. Each time we've been there, the service has been exceptional, the wait staff are friendly and unobtrusive and the food always seems to arrive just on time without feeling rushed or wondering when the next course will arrive.
Not only did the food taste amazing, but it was also a lot of fun skewering each piece and dipping it in cheese or cooking it in the coq au vin. The dark chocolate fondue dessert was especially amazing. The restaurant was pretty empty when we went, but that's not surprising, as it was a Tuesday night. The only bit I didn't like as much was the horribly cheesy, endless romantic-themed music playing rather loudly through the otherwise quiet restaurant. Our waitress was really nice and funny. I really appreciated that she came back to check with us about the wine ordered, because she had heard an order for a $100 wine bottle when a $40 wine bottle had been ordered. So, she saved us $60 by double checking with us. Overall, a great meal.
Although it is a little pricey, the food was excellent and our server did the best job ever. He was very helpful and patient.
When we arrived, we were seated immediately. The booths are cozy and provide privacy and a very nice ambiance. The waitstaff was extremely patient and attentive and allowed us to leisurely talk and take our time. In fact, without realizing it, we were still working on the entree past closing time. Still, we were given the privacy and time to finish not only our entree but also our dessert and wine. Such an enjoyable evening and thank you to our wonderful waitress!
The food is always amazing, who doesn't love fondue, dipping wonderful items into cheese or chocolate!
We get to go out together very rarely, so on a night we had a sitter we ran to Melting Pot Gaithersburg, they had their Flappers, Fellas, and Fondue night and it was so much fun!! We have been to three different Melting Pot locations and this was the most creative!
My friends and I had a Living Social voucher for services, which was not valid on Saturday's. Though it was technically our fault for not reading the fine print, the staff went above and beyond in making our visit memorable and we are excited to return on Sun-Thurs to redeem our voucher for another wonderful meal!
Really enjoyed celebrating our anniversary at the MP. We arrived a little after 6 pm and expected to wait until 6:15 (our reservation time), that was not the case. We were sat down right away! Our waitress was superb in explaining the menu and how to order. She also gave us recommendations after learning that we were first timers at this restaurant - this was extremely helpful. We chose the 4 course meal, and I can honestly tell you, there was more than enough food. We left with our tummies full. And to conclude our experience, we left with 6 chocolate covered strawberries - just for registering to their club fondue! We truly had an amazing experience at the MP and will definitely be back!
Layout of the restaurant allows privacy for groups of 2/3, which I really liked - didn't have the bustle of a large open space, though there were areas that accommodated larger groups but even those areas weren't so large that you felt you were in a large area. Food was very tasty - my favorites were the herb crusted chicken breast and Angus beef, though the teriyaki sirloin wasn't far behind those. Had the four course experience, and every course was very generous sized. We had the Spinach Artichoke fondue and that was the best I've ever had, and our preference for dipping into the cheese fondue was the tortilla chips. Wine was a generous pour - came in a small carafe that accommodated almost two glasses of wine at other restaurants.
The food was good, plentiful etc. Our waitress was checking in often to be sure we didn't need anything. Mgr came by to ask if all was well, too. Food was good and timing was nice too. However I do have some comments. Timers are needed to discern which foods are done. PLUS, lighting needs to be improved! Dim lights impacted our ability to know status of cooked meats. Some closer lights (book lights?) could help see the foods we are to consume. Also labeling of meats [& sauces] would be useful. [maybe a "key" card for each - so we can be sure not to UNDERCOOK the pork products - but allow us to have medium rare meats] Finally, spices were FAR TOO Heavy-handed. Less pepper would be better.
The melting pot is pricey, but well worth is for a special occasion. We always get 4 courses and you can't go wrong with yummy cheese, a salad, meat fondue of your choice and chocolate.
I used a Living Social deal to experience their four course meal. It was a great experience. The food was great. I would only go for very special occasions because it is expensive. They also offer you more dippers (veggies, bread, dessert, etc.) which is nice. The cocktails are also very good.
Never a disappointment! Always a wonderful place w/ a great environment.
Loved it! Had a great time with my wife enjoying our eating/cooking experience. Food was delicious and just kept coming.
Melting Pot is our date night favorite. In a traditional restaurant my husband and I are in an out in an hour max, and that's with slow service. At Melting Pot we actually take the time to talk to one another as our food cooks on our table top. We call it a dinner experience versus going out to dinner. We are usually at the Melting Pot table for at least 2 hours engaged in good conversation and eating amazing food!
Arranged this for my wife's birthday and it couldn't have gone better, the table was set up with what I had ordered ahead of time, it was secluded, we had a fantastic waitress. Overall a fantastic experience and we would definately do it again.
This was our 23rd wedding anniversary, and I ordered the special occasion package which included chocolate covered strawberries, balloons, and a photo. I specifically asked if they could us white-chocolate instead of regular chocolate for the strawberries (my husband is allergic). They made the substitution even though we made the reservation only the afternoon of the dinner! The Melting Pot is a great romantic restaurant, because the booths are cozy and situated around the fondue pot where you dip or cook your food. The slower pace of dipping/cooking and eating encourages conversation. Great specials, fun drinks, extra "dippers" for dessert. It would be fun for a family if the kids were adventurous. We will go again!
Price level is high but certainly wonderful for a special occasion and worth the price.
VERY patient server. She did the best she could to make everyone happy. Explained all that she was doing along the way. Had been wanting to try this for a long time - glad we finally had a chance.
Food was very good, although there was not enough cheese to use all the dippers provided. The salads came after cheese fondue course, which was not what we preferred since we were only having cheese fondue, salads and chocolate fondue. Server was very nice, though.
No complaints at all. Food good, ambiance good. I was treated so I don't know the cost of the dinner. I have heard from other reviewers that the cost is high. I don't know myself.
I went with several co-workers for ladies night and to celebrate a couple of birthdays! It was a great time and great price! Cyrus was our waiter and he was fantastic! I look forward to going back!
Everything about our time at The Melting Pot was fantastic. The service was excellent and very helpful. If we needed something our server was usually around, but on the rare occasion that she wasn't there were other workers ready to get anything we needed. I couldn't eat at The Melting Pot constantly, but it's nice to indulge every once in a while for a special occasion or a celebration.

Skip swatching at your own risk
We were out to dinner last night and it was a bit breezy and cold. It was ideal for the Swarm of Bees sweater by Lisa Kereliuk in Reclaimed. Just the incentive I needed to cast-on and get started. It's a good thing I took the time to work the swatches.

The Exposition Universelle of 1889 was a World's Fair held in Paris, France from 6 May to 31 October 1889.
It was held during the year of the 100th anniversary of the storming of the Bastille, an event traditionally considered as the symbol for the beginning of the French Revolution. The fair included a reconstruction of the Bastille and its surrounding neighborhood, but with the interior courtyard covered with a blue ceiling decorated with fleur-de-lys and used as a ball room and gathering place.1
The 1889 Exposition covered a total area of 0.96 km², including the Champ de Mars, the Trocadéro, the quai d'Orsay, a part of the Seine and the Invalides esplanade. Transport around the Exposition was partly provided by a 3 kilometre (1.9 mi) 600 millimetre (2 ft 0 in) gauge railway by Decauville. It was claimed that the railway carried 6,342,446 visitors in just six months of operation. Some of the locomotives used on this line later saw service on the Chemins de Fer du Calvados.2
The main symbol of the Fair was the Eiffel Tower, which was completed in 1889, and served as the entrance arch to the Fair. The tower was constructed of wrought iron and was designed by Gustave Eiffel. The 1889 fair was built on the Champ de Mars in Paris, which had been the site of the earlier Paris Universal Exhibition of 1867, and would be the site of the 1900 exposition as well.
The fair marked the first time that visitors were allowed to go onto the yet unfinished Eiffel Tower. Though it was not yet completed, exhibition attendees were allowed to walk up to the second floor platform.3 Workers had worked through the night the day before the exhibition opened to complete the necessary construction needed to safely allow patrons to set foot upon the structure. When speaking of the dedicated workers, M. Salles, the son-in-law of Mr. Eiffel made the statement that "no soldier on the battle field deserved better mention than these humble toilers, who, will never go down in history." No one other than construction personnel were allowed higher than the second floor platform.3
An equally significant building constructed for the fair was the Galerie des machines, designed by architect Ferdinand Dutert and engineer Victor Contamin. It was reused at the exposition of 1900 and then destroyed in 1910. At 111 meters, the Galerie (or "Machinery Hall") spanned the longest interior space in the world at the time, using a system of hinged arches (like a series of bridge spans placed not end-to-end but parallel) made of steel or iron. The choice of construction material is controversial; the building was designed to be built with steel but was constructed in iron.
Volume 10 of Studies in the History of Civil Engineering: Structural Iron and Steel 1850-1900 (published by Ashgate Publishing Limited and edited by Robert Thorne in 2000), includes an article by John W. Stamper, The Galerie des Machines of the 1889 Paris world's fair. In it, Stamper claims that
The principal material of the building's structure was to have been steel, but the decision was made at the last minute to use iron instead. There is considerable confusion about this on the part of architectural historians, most of whom assume it was built of steel since that is what is mentioned by contemporary journalists before the opening of the fair. William Watson, an American engineer who wrote a thorough report on the fair after it closed states that the idea of using steel was abandoned "on the two-fold ground of expense and the necessity of hastening the execution of work. " The price of iron was about two-thirds that of steel in 1889….
There is an extensive and elaborate description of the Exposition's two famous buildings in the British journal Engineering (3 May 1889 issue) with illustrations. A follow-up report appears in the 14 June issue of Engineering with this summation:
... the exhibition will be famous for four distinctive features. In the first place, for its buildings, especially the Eiffel tower and the Machinery Hall; in the second place, for its Colonial Exhibition, which for the first time brings vividly to the appreciation of the Frenchmen that they are masters of lands beyond the sea; thirdly, it will be remembered for its great collection of war material, the most absorbing subject now-a-days, unfortunately, to governments if not to individuals; and fourthly, it will be remembered, and with good cause by many, for the extraordinary manner in which South American countries are represented. (p. 677)
The 28 June issue of Engineering also mentions a remarkable "Great Model of the Earth" created by Theodore Villard and Charles Cotard. There were unseasonal thunderstorms in Paris during that summer of 1889, causing some distress to the canopies and decoration of the exposition, as reported by the Engineering issues at that time.
The Exhibition included a building by the Paris architect Pierre-Henri Picq. This was an elaborate iron and glass structure decorated with ceramic tiles in a Byzantine-Egyptian-Romanesque style. After the Exposition the building was shipped to Fort de France and reassembled there, the work being completed by 1893. Known as the Schoelcher Library, initially it contained the 10,000 books that Victor Schoelcher had donated to the island. Today it houses over 250,000 books and an ethnographic museum, and stands as a tribute to the man it is named after who led the movement to abolish slavery in Martinique.
A "Negro village" (village nègre) where 400 people were displayed constituted the major attraction.4
Matching closely the opening day of the Exposition, the Opéra Comique premiered on 14 May 1889 with a work specially composed for that event: Jules Massenet's Esclarmonde (debuting American soprano Sybil Sanderson), attracting and entertaining crowds of visitors for the more than 50 evenings the Exposition lasted.
At the Exposition, the French composer Claude Debussy first heard Javanese gamelan music, performed by an ensemble from Java. This influenced some of his later compositions.
William Stroudley, locomotive superintendent of the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway died whilst at the exhibition, where he was exhibiting one of his locomotives. Heineken received the Grand Prix (English: Grand Prize) at the exposition.
Buffalo Bill recruited American sharpshooter Annie Oakley to rejoin his "Wild West Show" which performed for packed audiences throughout the Exposition. Other prominent visitors included the Prince of Wales (the future King Edward VII) and his wife, Princess Alexandra; artists James McNeill Whistler, Edvard Munch, Rosa Bonheur, Paul Gauguin and Vincent van Gogh; U.S. journalist and diplomat Whitelaw Reid; author Henry James; Filipino patriot Jose Rizal; and inventor Thomas Edison
A central attraction in the French section was the Imperial Diamond, at the time the largest brilliant in the world.5
- Expenses: 41,500,000 Francs
- Receipts: 49,500,000 Francs
- Visitors: 32,250,297
- Exhibitors: over 61,722, of which 55% were French

My favorite Birchbox product yet. My face feels much more moisturized without feeling oily and gross. The price seems really steep until you start using it and realize it will last a long time. I've had this for 4 months and have used 1/4 - 1/3 of the bottle. $40 for an entire year doesn't sound so bad to me.
Went on easy on the face and didn't leave any after residue. The smell is the best part of this product and leaves my face feeling healthy.
Once I got over my aversion to rubbing oil all over my face, I realized it was a really good moisturizer. Its not the best product I've ever tried (not a huge fan of the scent), but it is definitely good stuff. Seems kind of pricey for what you're getting, but it does work great.
I actually just received this product yesterday and I used it last night. It made my skin feel amazing! I hope it continues to do so. It's a bit pricy, but it seems like it will go a long way. My skin gets really dry in the morning and after showering, but this product seems to be working great so far! I definitely recommend it!
This oil is surprisingly nice. I thought that due to my oily skin this would possibly ruin my face and make me break out. However, it has actually helped it. It smells good and a little goes a long, long way.
I really liked the sample and i bought a full size version. I am using it daily but think i might want to use it less often as i got a zit and i think it is due to the use of the product. I really love the way it leaves my face feeling.
1. This product smells great, has a nice woodsy scent that isn't overpowering.
2. It keeps your face feeling great, moisturizes and nourishes your skin and also softens it.
3. It lasts a long time, you hardly need a lot to ale a difference.
This came in my first Birchbox and when the sample finally ran out, this became my first Birchbox purchase. It's a little different, but it feels great. It's oil, and you put it on your face, but it's not greasy at all. My skin just feels healthy and smooth.
stuff helped out my skin but I dont know if i would buy it at this price. I feel like i could just use other oils instead.
After reading the reviews, I went ahead an purchased the full size PLANT Face Oil (AO). I use it nightly. It absorbs easily, and I find my skin is not begging for moisture in the morning. I live in CA, and since I have received my shipment we have experienced some summer like days (90F), and autumn days (50F). Regardless of the season, I feel like this product will be a part of my kit.

Ten— The Spring, Defiled: Ingmar Bergman's Virgin Spring and Wes Craven's Last House on the Left
1. See Gerald Mast, A Short History of the Movies, 5th ed. (New York: Macmillan, 1992), 547. [BACK]
2. See Roger Ebert's Movie Home Companion, 1993 ed. (Kansas City: Andrews and McMeel, 1992); Leonard Maltin, ed., Leonard Maltin's TV Movies and Video Guide (New York: Signet, 1992); Steven H. Scheuer, Movies on TV (New York: Bantam, 1987). [BACK]
3. Unless a readaptation of a literary work refers to the previous adaptation(s) and not directly to the written source, the readaptation should not be considered a remake. Thus, Martin Scorsese's Cape Fear (1991) and Werner Herzog's Nosferatu: Phantom of the Night (1979) are remakes, but Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet (1996), or any other recent Shakespeare production is not. [BACK]
4. Ibid., 1254. [BACK]
5. A shocking variety show of vengeance, elaborately schemed and painstakingly executed, is one of Craven's trademarks, seen, for example, in A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), Deadly Friend (1986), and Shocker (1991). God left Craven's world, and left it without a blueprint; the revenge with shaving cream spread on the floor, invisible strings attached to murderous hammers, chain saws, short circuits, etc., is the only plan possible in the total chaos. [BACK]
6. Narrative, verbal, stylistic, casting, and other references to the source are precisely what should decisively distinguish a remake from a "rip-off" (Maltin). Thieves conceal and pretend to not have taken what they took—something that neither Wes Craven, nor any other true remaker, credited or uncredited, ever does. [BACK]
7. No one could claim the absence of differences between the classical and the pop culture for reasons other than polemical. Thus, for example, the authorship of the popular myth is more "anonymous" than that of the classical myth. Orestes continue
belongs to Aeschylus and 007 to . . . well, not exclusively Ian Fleming, but maybe because of this James Bond is even more mythical than Orestes. Myths emerge from the existential anonymity and, having passed the stage of individual expression, should lead back to anonymity, this time cultural. [BACK]
8. Between 1992 and 1995, several Hollywood remakes of the relatively recent European productions— Scent of a Woman ( Profumo di donna, Italy, 1975), Sommersby ( The Return of Martin Guerre, France, 1982), The Vanishing (Netherlands, 1988), Point of No Return ( Nikita, France, 1990), and my Father, the Hero ( Mon Père, le Héro, France 1992)—were released; several more are currently in production. While a short temporal gap is caused directly by the "exploitation" aspect of remaking a successful (or potentially commercial) feature, these remakes could not have been done if the source films did not originate overseas. A scenario in which Joe Dante, John Carpenter, or Walter Hill are remaking a Jim Jarmusch, a Jon Jost, or a Henry Jaglom picture yet remains in the realm of fantasy. break [BACK]

United States MilitaryPosted Tuesday, November 29, 2011, at 4:51 PM If it weren't for the United States military, there'd be NO United States of America . THE FINAL INSPECTION The Soldier stood and faced God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shining, Just as brightly as his brass.. 'Step forward now, Soldier, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek? To My Church have you been true?' The soldier squared his shoulders and said, 'No, Lord, I guess I ain't. Because those of us who carry guns, Can't always be a saint. I've had to work most Sundays, And at times my talk was tough. And sometimes I've been violent, Because the world is awfully rough. But, I never took a penny, That wasn't mine to keep... Though I worked a lot of overtime, When the bills got just too steep. And I never passed a cry for help, Though at times I shook with fear.. And sometimes, God, forgive me, I've wept unmanly tears. I know I don't deserve a place, Among the people here. They never wanted me around, Except to calm their fears If you've a place for me here, Lord, It needn't be so grand. I never expected or had too much, But if you don't, I'll understand. There was a silence all around the throne, Where the saints had often trod. As the Soldier waited quietly, For the judgment of his God. 'Step forward now, you Soldier, You've borne your burdens well. Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets, You've done your time in Heck.' (Had to change the last word) Author Unknown~ It's the Soldier, not the reporter, Who has given us the freedom of the press. It's the Soldier, not the poet, Who has given us the freedom of speech. It's the Soldier, not the politicians, That ensures our right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.. It's the Soldier who salutes the flag, Who serves beneath the flag, And whose coffin is draped by the flag. If you care to offer the smallest token of recognition and appreciation for the Military, Please pray for our men and women Who have served and are currently serving our country And pray for those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for freedom....

hey up everyone i really want the 172 lights on my cup..is it possible? cheers everyone!!! what other things would i have to buy rather than just the light units/bulbs themselves!!!
hey up everyone i really want the 172 lights on my cup..is it possible? cheers everyone!!! what other things would i have to buy rather than just the light units/bulbs themselves!!!
control unit packs on the back of the lamps, ring and i think phillips do HID/xenon conversion kits for about £500 that fit most cars and youll be able to swap it onto your next car when you sell the cup, have a look at their sites
bloody hell ..so i dont just fit the lights on then?
nope need them and control units may even be a different wiring harness too
need to have the washer jets on xenon lights to pass mot, so i have been led to believe anyway, check it out tho just in case i have been mis informed
xenon lights also have to automatically self adjust to the vehicle height to be legal so that would mean fitting front+rear level sensors and the wiring to headlamp adjustment moters.To put it to renault/172 standard spec you will possibly need-both headlights,ballast computers,height adjustment moters,the main vehicle wiring loom,front+rear height sensors,maybe a uch if it cant be reconfigured(the cup uch may be a lower spec)washer bottle,headlight washers and the pipework.
Cuppy, ever think you should have just bought a 172 to start off with?!
The Xenons are one thing I really wanted, was pissed when I discovered that they werent on the Cup!!
1 - You never bloody see em when driving
2 - Stanadard lights do the job perfectly well
3 - I think the lights on the cup are pretty white anyway, no?
1 - Yes you bloody do.. the light is 10x better and a nice white colour with a blue fringe.
2 - Until you have used xenons they do.
3 - No. Try xenons then you will see how yellow and dull normal headlights are.
1 - blinds people 10x more coming the other way
2 - standard lights are absolutely without a doubt fine on our roads
3 - i dont give a sh*t
4 - Are you gonna kick me off the site now?!
To get the zenons fitted is about £450~500 I looked into it when I got my car as the lighst arnt excellent you need a control module or something as well as the achual lights. Not sure if you need the washers jets though for them as how would they make them if Id asked for them on my Dynamic?.
Best ides would be to either get some or the performance bulbs from Halfords etc or eles find a crashed 172 and buy the lights and everything lese there connected to and try and make them fit.
_KDF the Cups lights are brilliant and there is no real need for the xenons, oh and they blind other road users thus causing danger to you and them.
You cant compare standard lights to Xenons. I was gobsmacked by how good they are. Far better than standard headlights. FACT!!!
sh*t sorry lads didnt want to start a sh*t storm
edde I had xenons fitted to my 2003 1.4 16v dynamique + from the factory and Ive got headlamp washers fitted to my bumper...looks nice
lol, every time i get in a car without xenons (even newer ones with decent lamps) i think dam these lights are total sh*te, non xenons will do if you have never had xenons but if youve had them youll never want to go back to anythin less than xenons
172loony you ever driven a Cup at night? If you have you will know there is no real need for him to spend 500£ to get them fitted they are just not worth it imho.

1 -Look im only stating the facts, I dont see how they can blind people as the are auto leveling.. although yes they are a lot brighter.
2 - If your happy with your lights then great, but I was only pointing out to the person that was thinking of changing what benifits he would see.
3 - Good for you, nice comeback
4 - Dont be so childish.
I wasnt keen on the xenons in my MK2 because:
1. The light was excellent, it just didnt shine far enough ahead.
2. People used to put their lights on full beam when mine were dipped. Pissed me off as I already couldnt see anything because of point 1.
Im happy with the dipped mk1 172 lights (although full beam does f**k all!)

Inverdoorn Game Reserve and Iziba Safari Lodge is situated in the dry heartland of South Africa – an entirely malaria-free, Big 5 game reserve. There are areas further north that are unfortunately not malaria-free; but Inverdoorn guarantees you a safari adventure with maximum comfort, in the full knowledge that you will leave as malaria-free and healthy as the day you arrived.
At Inverdoorn Game Reserve your comfort is paramount. While the climate and conditions of the Karoo ensure that you will be malaria-free, we further ensure ease and tranquility by providing mosquito nets and other repellents.
South Africa is one of the safest safari destinations in Africa. With ease of access to modern medical facilities, you can rest assured in the knowledge that professional medical assistance is on hand 24 hours a day.
Tap water is safe to drink in cities, but you may be more comfortable drinking bottled water in the rural areas. At Inverdoorn the tap water is safe to drink, but both options are available to you.
You should bring along sufficient water from the lodge on safari as there are no water points on the game reserve. Protection from the sun with a wide-brimmed hat and sun block is also recommended. The curio shop does stock both if you have forgotten to bring yours along.
If you want to avoid the possibility of contracting malaria, then you should choose Inverdoorn Game Reserve and Iziba Safari Lodge.
Amongst the wonders of Nature exists a splendid place situated in the magnificence of the vast open Karoo landscape, Inverdoorn Game Reserve & Iziba Safari Lodge. The 10 000 hectare property is a resourceful and stylish 'oasis' destination, only a 2.5-hour drive from Cape Town city centre.
Inverdoorn offers guests the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to really get to grips with a cheetah through its Exclusive Encounters package that allow guests to spend time interacting with the cheetahs through stroking, petting and giving the cheetahs water. Guests who opt for the five-star luxury accommodation packages automatically enjoy the one-on-one encounters while an optional extra package is available to other overnight guests and even day visitors.

Roslyn Municipal Court Local Court Rules Table of Rules Introduction LARLJ 2 Scope of Rules and Adoption Local Criminal Rules LCrRLJ 4.5 Pre-Trial Procedure LCrRLJ 7.2(f) Requirements for Chemical Dependency Assessments Local Rule of General Application LGR 17(a)(7) Facsimile Transmission Local Infraction Rules LIRLJ 3.5 Infraction Hearings Based on Written Statements LIRLJ 6.6(e) Request for Speed Measuring Device Expert LIRLJ 6.6(f) Public Access to Speed Measuring Device Certificates Forms Declaration Interpreter's Declaration LCrRLJ 4.5 Form 1 Stipulated Pre-Trial Statement of Readiness LCrRLJ 4.5 Form 2 Deferred Prosecution Findings of Fact,Conclusions of Law & Order LCrRLJ 4.5 Form 3 Stipulation for and Order for Stay of Proceedings LIRLJ 3.5 Form Defendant's Request for Decision on Written Statements LARLJ 2 SCOPE OF RULES AND ADOPTION (a) Effect of Local Rules. The provisions of the Local Rules are supplemental to the Rules for courts of Limited Jurisdiction, as adopted or hereafter amended by the Supreme Court of the State of Washington, and shall not be construed in conflict with them. (b) Scope. The Local Rules apply to all Courts in which a Upper Kittitas County District Court Judge is appointed or elected to sit, including but not limited to the Upper Kittitas County District Court, Cle Elum Municipal Court, and the Roslyn Municipal Court. (c) Adoption and Amendments. These Rules may be amended from time to time by the Roslyn Municipal Court Judge. (d) Prior Rules Repealed. All prior rules of the Roslyn Municipal Court are repealed upon the adoption of these Rules. (Adopted effective September 1, 2011) LCrRLJ 4.5 PRE-TRIAL PROCEDURE (A) Pre-Trial Hearings. All cases scheduled for jury trial shall be set by the clerk for a pre-trial hearing. The state or city prosecutor, defense counsel and the defendant shall attend the pre-trial hearing to consider such matters as will promote a fair and expeditious trial. Upon agreement that the discovery process has been completed to the satisfaction of the parties and that there are no other issues to be heard by the court at the scheduled pre- trial hearing, a stipulated pre-trial statement of readiness, substantially in the form set forth as "Form 1" below, may be filed by the parties. The filing of a stipulated pre-trial statement of readiness will serve to excuse counsel and the defendant from appearing at the scheduled pre-trial hearing. (B) Motions. All amendments to the charges, pleas or pre-trial motions shall be made prior to or at the time of the pre-trial hearing. Motions which should have been heard at a pretrial hearing shall not be considered at the time of trial unless the judge at the time of the pre-trial hearing expressly continues such motions to the time of trial. Absent good cause, motions for dismissal or suppression of evidence in criminal cases shall be in writing and shall be provided to the prosecutor or city attorney at least 24 hours before the pre-trial hearing. Motions which are lengthy, complex, or which require the presence of witnesses will be heard by the court at a subsequent 3.5/3.6 hearing calendar. (C) CrRLJ 3.5 Hearings. Pursuant to CrRLJ 3.5(a) all demands for hearing on the admissibility of confessions must be made no later than the pre-trial hearing. All motions filed pursuant to this rule shall be heard by the court at a subsequent 3.5/3.6 hearing calendar. (D) Deferred Prosecution - Time for Petition - Forms for Petition and Order. A petition for deferred prosecution shall be filed with the court at least seven days before the date set for trial but, upon written motion and affidavit establishing good cause for the delay and failure to comply with this rule, the court may waive this requirement subject to the defendant's reimbursement to the court of the witness fees and expenses due for subpoenaed witnesses who have appeared on the date set for trial. The petition for deferred prosecution shall substantially comply with CrRLJ 4.2(I). The proposed findings and order shall substantially comply with the form set forth as "Form 2" below. (E) Stays of Proceedings - Form of Order. In the event the parties enter into a stay of proceedings, the agreement between the parties shall be reduced to writing in a form which substantially complies with the form set forth as "Form 3" below. [Adopted effective September 1, 2011] Comments The purpose of these rules is to eliminate surprise and unnecessary delay and expense. While the purpose of these rules is not to create traps for the unwary, when a party's failure to follow these rules causes unnecessary extra expense to the opposing party, the inconvenienced party may apply to the court for the imposition of sanctions. The purpose of these sanctions is not to punish but rather to insure that the appropriate party is responsible for the predictable costs of unnecessary delay. Comment to section (A): The stipulated pre-trial statement of readiness was adopted by the court at the request of counsel who wanted to avoid the necessity of clients appearing at unproductive pre-trial hearings. Attorneys are encouraged to use the pre-trial statement of readiness to avoid the necessity of clients appearing when there are no pre-trial issues requiring his or her presence. Comment to section (B): The purpose of this section is to provide a predictable structure to the pre-trial motions process and to insure that the non-moving party has adequate time to prepare for the hearing. However, if counsel desire to avoid multiple hearings, the parties may agree to present evidence and argue pre-trial motions at the scheduled pre-trial hearing rather than following the procedure described by this rule. Comment to section (C): See the comments to section (B). Comment to section (D): See RCW 10.05.010. Comment to section (E): The stay of proceedings form set forth below is generally consistent with the forms currently in use in the Roslyn Municipal Court. In creating a uniform stay of proceedings form, it is not the court's intention to suggest what conditions should be part of an agreement between the parties. For example, if an agreement between the parties in a specific case does not include the defendant stipulating to the admissibility of the police reports, or a stipulation that the reports are sufficient to convict, the court expects the parties to line out that portion of the stay of proceedings form. LCrRLJ 7.2(f) REQUIREMENTS FOR CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY ASSESSMENTS When, as a part of a sentence or other disposition, a chemical dependency assessment is required, the alcohol/drug evaluator must be a certified Chemical Dependency Professional (CDP) or a CDP trainee (CDPT) under supervision of a CDP. The evaluator shall prepare a written report of the assessment that shall include a description of the steps taken to insure compliance with the requirements of WAC 388-805-310. The written report shall also include the following information: 1. A description of the sources used to establish the defendant's legal history. At a minimum, these sources must include a Defendant's Case History (DCH), a Washington Department of Licensing driver's record abstract, and police reports describing the current offense. The police reports shall contain, at a minimum, a description of the offense and the defendant's blood or breath alcohol level and any other drug levels at the time of arrest. 2. A description of sources used to document the defendant's history of alcohol and other drug treatment or education. At a minimum, these sources shall include any available drug/alcohol evaluations prepared by a CDP or CDPT concerning the defendant. The defendant shall notify the evaluator of any prior alcohol/drug evaluation and sign any releases necessary to make such alcohol/drug evaluations available to his or her current evaluating agency. 3. A description of the method used to notify the defendant of the assessment results. The defendant shall be supplied with a copy of his alcohol/drug evaluation along with any treatment/education recommendations made by the CDP or CDPT. If the assessment results are mailed to the defendant, the report shall state the address to which the assessment was mailed and the date of mailing. [Adopted effective September 1, 2011] LGR 17(a)(7) FACSIMILE TRANSMISSION The Roslyn Municipal Court will not accept for filing a facsimile transmission of any pleading or other document for which any other court rule or statute sets a filing time-limit or filing deadline. The court will accept facsimile transmissions of other documents, including judge's working copies of trial briefs or position statements. [Adopted effective September 1, 2011] LIRLJ 3.5 INFRACTION HEARINGS BASED ON WRITTEN STATEMENTS The court adopts IRLJ 3.5 and will, at the request of a defendant, decide infraction cases based on written statements. A defendant requesting the court to decide the case on written statements shall do so by completing a statement in substantially the following form: {see form LIRLJ 3.5 Form} [Adopted effective September 1, 2011] LIRLJ 6.6(e) REQUEST FOR SPEED MEASURING DEVICE EXPERT Request for Speed Measuring Device ("SMD") Expert. Defense requests to produce an electronic or laser SMD expert pursuant to IRLJ 6.6(b) shall be contained in a separate document clearly designated as a request for an SMD expert, served on the prosecuting authority with a conformed copy filed with the clerk of the court. If the charging law enforcement agency's SMD expert maintains a schedule for monthly appearances in the Roslyn Municipal Court, a request for an SMD expert shall be deemed by the court to be a request to set (or re-set) the hearing to a day scheduled for the agency's SMD expert. An SMD expert called as a witness by either party may testify by telephone; however, any party intending to elicit telephonic testimony from an SMD expert shall notify the court and the opposing party at least 5 days prior to the date set for the contested hearing. [Adopted effective September 1, 2011] Comments to Local Infraction Rule 6.6(e). LIR 6.6(e) is designed to address the problem of requests for SMD experts being "buried" within discovery requests or other documents filed in contested infraction cases. A request for an SMD expert which stands alone and is clearly identified as a request for an SMD expert will eliminate continuances for defendants who desire the presence of an SMD expert but who have not made their wish sufficiently clear to the prosecuting authority. Allowing SMD expert testimony by telephone serves to reduce costs incurred by law enforcement agencies as well as assisting defendants in presenting the testimony of their own SMD experts. LIRLJ 6.6(f) PUBLIC ACCESS TO SPEED MEASURING DEVICE CERTIFICATES Pursuant to IRLJ 6.6(d), the court maintains as public records any design and construction certifications for electronic speed measuring devices and laser speed measuring devices filed with the court.

LONDON—Most European stock markets notched solid gains on Friday, aided by a firmer U.S. market, but Spanish stocks slumped after a short-selling ban was lifted.
The Stoxx Europe 600 index added 0.3% to close at 288.20. It declined 0.5% on the week.
U.S. stocks rallied on Wall Street, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average briefly topping 14000 after Friday's much-anticipated jobs report.
"The underlying data showed employment is getting stronger and there seems to be a feeling that the glass is still half full and that nothing can weigh on the market at this moment," said Richard Perry, chief market strategist at Central Markets in London.
"Since the first trading day of 2013, investors have focused on the fact that the euro zone is not going to collapse in the near future, that U.S. data seem to be improving and that there's mass central-bank liquidity," he said.
However, Spain's IBEX 35 index lost 1.6% to 8225.20, and slumped 5.7% on the week. Shares of Banco Santander SAN.MC -1.45% Banco Santander S.A.

The broader European stock markets stayed in positive territory after data from the U.S. showed 157,000 more jobs were added to the economy in January, while the unemployment rate rose to 7.9% from 7.8%. Gains for December and November were revised sharply higher. Economists surveyed by MarketWatch expected an increase of 170,000 jobs last month, with unemployment dipping to 7.7%.
"The January numbers aren't majorly below expectation and the sharp upwards revision in the December data will be a fillip, but despite this there's every chance we'll see some of January's gains go up in smoke," said Marcus Bullus, trading director at MB Capital, in emailed comments.
"The bulls will argue that this minor reality shot could actually be what's needed to allow investors on the sidelines the dip they need to get in and set us up for a more positive year," he said.
Separately, a measure of U.S. manufacturing rose to the highest level since April.
Among national indexes, the FTSE 100 index gained 1.1% to 6347.24, giving it an increase of 1% on the week. Germany's DAX 30 index rose 0.7% to 7833.39, but shed 0.3% on a weekly basis. France's CAC 40 index rallied 1.1% to 3773.53, leaving it down 0.1% on the week.
The FTSE MIB index lost 0.7% to 17318.94, part of a 2.3% drop for the week.
