Which Body Lotion Is Best for You?
By Andrea Buginsky
Body lotion is great for keeping your skin soft and hydrated. No matter what time of year it is, your skin is exposed to elements that can dry it out and cause your skin to itch and flake. Body lotion is a great way to heal your dry, damaged skin and replenish it, but which lotion is right for you? It depends on what type of skin you have.
Dry Skin
If your skin is already naturally dry, then you'll want an extra moisture lotion, such as Nivea Body Daily Lotion Essentially Enriched for Very Dry, Rough Skin, $5.37, Walmart. It contains sea minerals, vitamin E, and almond oil to reduce dryness and re-hydrate your skin, giving you healthier, well-balanced skin.
Normal Skin
If you have normal skin that dries out when exposed to the elements, try a gentle daily moisturizer, such as Jergens Naturals Hydrating Daily Moisturizer, $4.97, Walmart. It's gentle enough to use every day and has natural ingredients to nourish and hydrate your skin.
Oily Skin
If your skin is oily, you'll need a moisturizer that can help soak up your skin's oil and not produce more, such as Olay Collections Purely Pristine Hand & Body Lotion, $5.97, Walmart. It's made with mineral crystals and seaweed extract to add moisture without adding extra oil to your skin.
Problematic Skin
If you suffer from skin ailments such as eczema or psoriasis, you'll want a stronger lotion that can heal your skin, such as Cortizone 10 Intensive Healing Lotion, $7.88, Walmart. By using it on a daily basis, it will help to not only heal your dry skin, but the itching and discomfort associated with these skin ailments too.
Once you find the best body lotion for your skin type, it's best to use it every day after your shower to maintain your skin's natural moisture and help keep it from drying out.

In a personal story segment tonight that George Soros funded drug policy alliance took out this full page ad yesterday and the New York Times.
And they argued for the legalization.
Of drugs.
-- want to stop police from locking up heroin and cocaine users despite the public safety threat that the users posed joining us now from New York.
Is the executive director of the drug policy alliance -- an ailment.
You can good to see is I think a lot of people watching us think OK -- -- -- the cat's out of the bag of marijuana.
And states out west Colorado.
Saying marijuana has not a criminal thing anymore are a lot of people haven't pot party's stance and -- the -- But I think apparel land and I think of cocaine is something very different parent when they think that someone should not -- tracks on our arms and it's much more addictive and much more dangerous so what is the point.
This full page advertisement and what's the goal here.
Well -- mean the real point was to show that.
First of all in Colorado and Washington you know these those ballot -- one with the overwhelming majorities 55% -- each state saying it's time to.
Legally regulate marijuana like alcohol rather than continuing with a failed -- -- policy.
Those -- by the way we're not pro pot votes right most of the people who voted for those initiatives don't smoke pot they don't want -- -- parties in the streets all the sort of stuff.
They want police to focus on real crime they don't want the criminals making the money they don't want the cops are resting on -- zillion people each year for this stuff they wanna see that tax revenue coming from this stuff so that's what's going on.
And that's like half of all Americans a little more now say it's time to legally regulate marijuana.
I'd -- probably more than half of all fox viewers feel the same way.
So it's about a responsible policy -- -- the drug war has gone too far.
And that would marijuana we have an opportunity take it out of the criminal justice system and legally regulated in control.
We'll have to do lay out O'Reilly Factor poll on that -- here -- really -- -- -- -- -- -- is -- -- yeah -- on the issue of of the addictive nature of -- and especially -- cocaine on as well.
The carnage that those drugs leave behind and I know alcohol is a terrible carnage for American families.
Across the board alcohol abuse but -- drug those drugs in particular Joseph Califano has written.
On how turning America into like de -- one big needle park where people are are you know -- exchanging needles and get a needle exchange program and some people aren't getting sick because they have clean needles and that's great.
But that this leads to other problems and acceptance of drug use among younger people and people who are already at risk.
Yeah what are -- trying to -- to be clear on this my organization drug policy alliance.
We're the leading one in the country advocating -- -- the drug war some of our members are libertarians who think we should legalize everything.
Most probably do not go that far and so my organization says we should reduce the role of the criminal long criminal justice system the system in this -- to try to be taken that this is out of the hands of the criminals trying to find ways to regulate this stuff.
But were not saying treat heroin a cocaine like alcohol and tobacco.
And the look look it this -- also.
Tobacco even heroin addicts data to back with the most addictive drug -- -- by all rights we could prohibit tobacco we might reduce the number of smokers right but we also know would have.
-- we create a vast black market we got tobacco Traficant he's we have ideal multi hundred billion dollar what we be filling the prisons with tobacco law violators and we still have tens of millions Americans smoking.
So the argument essentially is to say.
To the extent we can treat the issues -- on heroin and cocaine and methamphetamine as public health issues to the -- we can get serious about treating addiction not -- the criminal justice system but through that public health system.
That's a good idea look -- would Portugal's done the last eleven years they said we're not locking up anybody any -- for simple possession of a small out of the drug if they're not behind the wheel the car.
What's happened in Portugal knowing nothing drug use but they've reduced the rest reduce crime reduce age reduce overdoses so it's a sensible public health strategy that's the.
A lot of the Marlins Iran's to many people that a big failure big waste money but I ended up Portugal example might not be all that persuasive to people and yeah I know is -- -- or was -- all the -- -- everything that he -- -- access America is not -- to go for a lot of reasons and I -- the Portuguese and get me -- -- -- The policy still makes sense the fact of the matter what they're doing there would work here better than what we're doing here worked out what way we certainly need to change the lately capitalization no doubt about it mr.
-- great to see --

When mistakes are made it's often due to mistaken judgments based on information processed in the brain incorrectly. Marketers must read their audience and a company like Cisco must not over pay in their $1.2 billion bid for Meraki. Misreading your audience or overpaying for an acquisition is far too common. How do we make sure technology decisions today will have a positive impact on our tomorrow? By painting a crystal clear picture about the situation we are facing. Understanding Denial

Wage and Hour Division (WHD)
Press Releases
U.S. Department of Labor |
BRYSON CITY, N.C. -- The U.S. Department of Labor has recovered $29,850 for 25 employees of Old Mac's Package, Watering Trough and Riverside Grill in Bryson City following an investigation by the department's Wage and Hour Division, which found that employees had been improperly classified as exempt from the Fair Labor Standards Act and thereby denied compensation for all hours worked.
"Putting someone on salary does not automatically exempt him or her from coverage by the minimum wage and overtime compensation requirements of the FLSA. Employers need to carefully assess job duties and responsibilities when determining who may qualify as exempt from these rules," said Richard Blaylock, director of the Wage and Hour Division district office in Raleigh. "The Labor Department is committed to ensuring that workers receive the pay and benefits to which they are legally entitled and to level the playing field for employers that play by the rules."
After conducting interviews and reviewing personal records maintained by employees, an investigator determined that two employees had been improperly classified as FLSA-exempt managers, although they were unable to exercise hiring or firing authority. Additionally, nonexempt employees worked 48 to 72 hours a week but received a weekly salary, which resulted in them receiving less than the federal minimum wage based on the number of hours worked. Also, uniforms and other deductions were made from employees' pay, bringing their compensation farther below the required federal minimum wage for the hours worked.
The company will pay 25 employees $20,090 in back wages for failing to pay them overtime compensation when they worked more than 40 hours in a workweek. In addition, 21 of the 25 employees will receive $9,760 in back wages to compensate for having been paid below the federally required minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. The company has agreed to comply in the future with all provisions of the FLSA and not to make deductions from pay for uniforms or other business expenses when doing so would reduce employees' pay below the minimum wage or cut into earned overtime premium pay.
The FLSA requires that covered employees be paid at least the federal minimum wage of $7.25 for all hours worked, plus time and one-half their regular rates of pay, including commissions, bonuses and incentive pay, for hours worked beyond 40 per week.
This case was investigated by the Wage and Hour Division Raleigh District Office. More information is available by calling 919-790-2742. For information about the FLSA and other federal wage laws, call the division's toll-free helpline at 866-4US-WAGE (487-9243). Information is also available on the Internet at http://www.dol.gov/whd.
U.S. Department of Labor releases are accessible on the Internet at www.dol.gov. The information in this news release will be made available in alternate format (large print, Braille, audio tape or disc) from the COAST office upon request. Please specify which news release when placing your request at (202) 693-7828 or TTY (202) 693-7755. The Labor Department is committed to providing America's employers and employees with easy access to understandable information on how to comply with its laws and regulations.

Review: Quick Edits is a bare-bones photo editor that offers nothing new
Quick Edits is another free photo editing app that offers nothing new beyond the Aviary tools it has licensed for editing. The result is an ad-riddled app that is at-times slow and never offers anything more than what dozens of other free apps in the same category already offer. Unless you have no editing apps or need something very stripped down for a quick edit, there is little reason to download this app.
When you open Quick Edits for the first time, you'll find a few options for how to take and edit your images. Snap a new pic … Read more

text: For the past eight years, Mor Mor Rita has been the go-to label for beautiful groovy mothers like Maggie Gyllenhaal, Olya Thompson and Milla Jovovich, who dress their young daughters in clothes designed by Ryan Roche in her farmhouse in upstate New York. Last year, Roche (a mother of three) started designing for her grown-up pals: luscious little tops, silk slips and organic cotton trousers; pieces to wear on lazy Sundays in Sullivan County. For her third collection, she has collaborated with Thompson on graphic falcon imagery. ''A friend sent me a picture of a kestrel,'' Roche says, ''with a note that if I were a bird, I would be this one.'' Results include featherweight sweatshirts, cashmere fringed vests and high-waisted skirts in cotton-voile, all covered in intriguing renderings of the bird's plumage. (Prices range from $330, for this printed silk blouse, to $897, for this silk dress on Milla; go to stevenalan.com.) These are a neat spin on basics, by and for that agrarian-minded hipster who has made ''grunge'' relevant again.

Henry Winkler Movies
A graduate of the Yale School of Drama, American actor
Henry Winkler
, born October 30th, 1945, first appeared on Broadway and in films (Crazy Joe,
The Lords of Flatbush
[both 1974]) before making the guest-star rounds on TV sitcoms. He worked several times for MTM productions, appearing in such roles as
Valerie Harper
's date on Rhoda and a charming thief undergoing psychoanalysis on The Bob Newhart Show. In 1973, Winkler was selected among hundreds of candidates (including ex-Monkee
Micky Dolenz
) to play the small recurring role of Arthur "Fonzie" Fonzarelli, a leather-jacketed auto mechanic, on the new TV sitcom Happy Days. Though the series' stars were ostensibly
Ron Howard
Anson Williams
, and
Donny Most
, the bulk of the fan mail sent to Happy Days during its first season was addressed to "the Fonz." By the time the second season rolled around, Winkler was afforded second billing and a larger slice of screen time on each week's episode. Soon the more impressionable TV fans of America were parroting such Fonzie catchphrases as "Aaaaay" and "Sit on it!," while the nonplussed Winkler, who always regarded himself as a Dustin Hoffman-esque character actor, climbed to teen-idol status, complete with fan magazine interviews, posters, and Fonzie dolls. He also enjoyed a substantial salary boost, from 750 dollars per episode to (eventually) 80,000 dollars. At first, the off-stage Winkler could be as testy and sarcastic as his on-stage persona, but as Fonzie assumed "role model" proportions, the actor began comporting himself in as polite and agreeable a manner as possible. Accordingly, Fonzie became less of a Marlon Brando-type hoodlum and more of a basically goodhearted, moralistic young fellow who happened to be a motorcycle-racing dropout. By the time Happy Days ended in 1983 (by which time Winkler was elevated to top billing), Fonzie was a "drop-in," with a good job as a high school shop teacher and the possibility of a solid marriage. During his Happy Days heyday, Winkler was determined to prove he was capable of playing parts above and beyond Fonzie by taking film roles as far removed from his TV character: the troubled Vietnam vet in
(1977), the vainglorious actor-turned-wrestler in
The One and Only
(1981), a '30s-style Scrooge in
An American Christmas Carol
(1982), and the timorous morgue attendant in
Night Shift
(1983). Following the example of his Happy Days co-star
Ron Howard
, Winkler also began working his way into the production and direction end of the business. In addition, Winkler used his name value for the benefit of others, remaining active in charitable and political causes. After several years away from the camera, Winkler returned to acting in the 1991 TV-movie
Absolute Strangers
, playing the husband of a woman caught in the middle of a volatile pro-life/pro-choice argument. And in 1993,
Henry Winkler
starred in the brief TV sitcom
, portraying a bombastic Limbaugh-type conservative TV personality. Winkler appeared in Little Nicky (2006) and You Don't Mess With the Zohan (2008), both times playing himself. Winkler continued to take small roles and guest spots on television and film throughout the 2000s. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A highly unlikely crime helps bring together two brothers in this nostalgic comedy drama. Rocky Plumm (Owen Pearce) is a five-year-old boy growing up in a small Montana town in the mid-'60s. In Rocky's eyes, there's no star bigger or brighter than local kid's show host Happy Herb (Henry Winkler), who appears on TV weekday afternoons with his puppet friend Froggy Doo. When the Froggy Doo puppet is stolen, Happy Herb's show goes off the air until the doll can be found, which only adds to Rocky's unease as his folks (William Baldwin and Lisa Guerrero) struggle to salvage their clearly failing marriage. Rocky's big brother, Elliott (Chris J. Kelly), isn't especially concerned about Happy Herb's problems or the forced hiatus of Rocky's favorite show, but when Haley (Morgan Flynn), a pretty girl with a yen for detective stories, moves in next door, he suggests they join forces to help find Froggy Doo. Before long, the youthful sleuths find themselves crossing paths with a pair of federal agents (Peter Scolari and Rick Overton) and a growing list of suspects as they follow the thief's trail. A Plumm Summer was the first feature film from writer and director Caroline Zelder. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Clueless director Amy Heckerling returns to her position behind the camera for the first time in six years with this romantic comedy contrasting the age disparity romance of an older divorcée with the spring butterflies that her daughter experiences upon falling in love for the very first time. An aging professional (Michelle Pfeiffer) with little luck in love has finally found a fitting companion in the form of a much younger man (Paul Rudd). As her relationship threatens to move beyond something simply physical, her adolescent daughter (Saoirse Ronan) begins to wonder if the strange tingling sensation that she feels when she's in the company of a handsome local boy could possibly be the thing grown-ups refer to as "love." Of course anything is possible when Mother Nature (Tracey Ullman) is up to her old mischief, and with higher powers at play there's no telling what will come of the relationships experienced by these two love-starved souls. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A workaholic architect, frustrated in his job but determined to make a better life for his family, is bestowed with a powerful universal remote that allows him more control over his life than he ever knew possible in director Frank Coraci's high-concept fantasy comedy. On the surface, Michael Newman (Adam Sandler) seems to have it all, yet with all the demands forced upon him by his ungrateful boss (David Hasselhoff), Michael finds that setting aside time to spend with his loving wife, Donna (Kate Beckinsale), and two picture-perfect children, Ben (Joseph Castanon) and Samantha (Tatum McCann), has grown increasingly difficult. When a frustrating bout with the television remote leads the overworked husband and father to a nearby Bed, Bath & Beyond in search of a universal remote with the power to control all of his electronic devices, a curious peek into the back room leads Michael into the company of eccentric employee and talented inventor Morty (Christopher Walken). It seems that Morty has created a device that will not only allow Michael complete control over his television and stereo, but his entire life as well. As Michael discovers that the remarkable device has the power to muffle the barks of the family dog, zoom himself past an irritating quarrel with his wife, and even allow him to travel back and forth through time to different points in his life, the rush of being able to skip straight to the good parts in life soon leaves him feeling as if he's missing out on the total experience. Only when Michael begins to realize that the he has lost control of his life and the remote is now programming him does he finally learn that life is as much about the moments he'd rather forget as it is the moments he will always remember. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A washed-up actor finds an unlikely path back to the big screen in this offbeat family comedy. Bill Williams (Tom Arnold) is an actor whose career has gone into a severe tailspin ever since his brief fling with fame -- a supporting role in the Arnold Schwarzenegger vehicle True Lies. Sinking into a well of alcohol and depression, Williams unsuccessfully attempts suicide before his agent (Henry Winkler) tells him he's finally found a project for him. Aaron Roman (Eric Gores) is a teenager with cerebral palsy who loves action movies, especially True Lies. Aaron's father, Davis Roman (Joe Mantegna), is a very wealthy man -- so wealthy that, as a present for his son's 18th birthday, he's going to bankroll a professionally shot action movie which will star Aaron. Would Williams be willing to write and co-star in Aaron's birthday movie? Williams isn't so sure this is a great idea, even with a million-dollar payday, until he meets Aaron. Charmed by the kid's pluck and determination, Williams signs on for the world's most expensive home movie. Williams and producer Susan Mandeville (Linda Hamilton) hire Wayne's World director Penelope Spheeris to helm the project, and persuade bikini model Arielle Kebbel to appear as Aaron's love interest, but what started out as strictly a job-for-hire becomes something more as Williams and his fellow cast and crew members get to know their challenged young star. The Kid & I actually was written by co-star Tom Arnold, and Penelope Spheeris directed the film as well as playing herself. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Shaquille O'Neal also appear in cameo roles. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A young man is thrown into the center of the political and social tumult of the late '60s in this drama. It's 1968, and Ben Sweet (Nick Roth) is 18 years old and has just received his 1A draft classification. Ben does not want to go to Vietnam, and his father Sy (Henry Winkler) is understanding, though he believes Ben does have a responsibility to his country. As a compromise, Ben enrolls at the University of California in Berkeley, where he majors in economics but also hopes to indulge his interest in writing. Ben hasn't been in Berkeley long before his horizons are broadened by his childhood friend Mishkin (Sebastian Tillinger), who introduces him to marijuana and LSD, and Sadie (Laura Jordan), a classmate who takes him to bed for the first time. As Ben begins reconsidering the middle-class values he was raised with, he starts indulging his passion for playing guitar and joins a rock band with keyboard player Buddy (Wade Allain-Marcus) and drummer Blue (Tom Morello). Ben's political viewpoints also begin evolving when he meets campus radical Henry Wolf (Jake Newton), who believes a Marxist revolution is necessary in the United States -- and who steals Sadie away from him. On the rebound, Ben falls for Alice (Sarah Carter), the pretty blonde daughter of the college dean, but she bristles at his embrace of the counterculture as Ben becomes more deeply involved in music and politics. Ben's desire to write blossoms when he takes a class with Professor Hawkins (Bonnie Bedelia), a bohemian writing instructor who encourages him to explore his poetic side, but Ben's family are not entirely happy with the changes in his lifestyle. Nick Roth wrote and sang his own songs for Berkeley; he's also the son of director Bobby Roth. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A boy being punished for a crime he didn't commit learns there's more going on at a juvenile correctional facility than meets the eye in this comedy drama. Stanley Yelnats IV (Shia LaBeouf) is a teenager who has been told all his life that the men in the Yelnats family are cursed, thanks to a false promise his great, great grandfather made to a fortune teller. Given his frequent bad luck, and that which follows his father (Henry Winkler), Stanley has no trouble believing this. Stanley's bad luck hits a new low when a pair of sneakers literally falls out of the sky on him -- and turn out to be stolen. A judge sentences Stanley to a stay at Camp Green Lake, a juvenile correctional facility stuck in the middle of the desert, where he finds himself sharing a tent with a gang of misfits, including ringleader X-Ray (Brenden Jefferson), pushy Squid (Jake M. Smith), small but wiry Zero (Khleo Thomas), tough and stinky Armpit (Byron Cotton), paranoid ZigZag (Max Kasch), and thief-in-training Magnet (Miguel Castro). The Warden of Camp Green Lake (Sigourney Weaver) has her own ideas about rehabilitation, which consist of having the boys spend their days digging holes five feet deep under the desert sun. While well-mannered counselor Pendanski (Tim Blake Nelson) tries to help the boys however he can, Mr. Sir (Jon Voight), The Warden's right hand man, is a heartless creep who enjoys making Stanley and his friends suffer. Before long, Stanley wonders if there's a good reason why the Warden seems so curious about what (if anything) the boys find during their digging, and in time he suspects there's something they haven't been told which might be connected to the Yelnats family curse. Holes was based on the award-winning book for young people by Louis Sachar, who also wrote the film's screenplay. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Strange Days at Blake Holsey High [TV Series]
This weekend-morning fantasy series for kids largely took place in a sinister-looking prep school called Blake Holsey High. Because of the preponderance of curious phenomena that occurred within the walls of the school -- from spontaneously combustible desks to mysteriously disappearing freshmen -- the place was known as "Black Hole High" to its students. The individual episodes dealt with the efforts of five teenaged detectives, members all of the school's science clubs, to solve the various paranormal mysteries occurring on campus. The main characters included the analytical Josie (Emma Taylor Isherwood), the overachieving Corrine (Shadia Simmons), the popular but strangely secretive Vaughn (Robert Clark), precocious conspiracy theorist Lucas (Michael Seater), and the cheerfully geeky Marshall (Noah Reid). In keeping with the prosocial edicts of American network television, the series was careful to balance its science-fiction content with a healthy dose of science fact. Filmed at Auchmar Estate, a 150-year-old former monastery near Hamilton, Ontario, Strange Days at Blake Holsey High debuted October 5, 2002, as part of the three-hour Discovery Kids on NBC Saturday-morning programming block. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The youngest child of the family often has the most problems -- so why should things be different for the Prince of Darkness and his offspring? Satan (Harvey Keitel) is considering retirement, and is pondering which of his sons should take over the family business -- ambitious Adrian (Rhys Ifans), strapping Cassius (Tommy "Tiny" Lister Jr.), or Nicky (Adam Sandler), an accident-prone demon who prefers to stay in his room playing his favorite heavy metal tunes. When Satan decides to stay on for another 10,000 years, Adrian is outraged, and leaves Hell to go to New York, where he and Cassius attempt to round up enough souls to vote Satan out of power. Satan, understandably upset, sends Nicky to bring Adrian and Cassius back home, but Nicky finds life on Earth is more complicated than he expected. Things don't get any easier when he develops a crush on Valerie (Patricia Arquette), a good-hearted mortal woman. Little Nicky also features Michael McKean as a city official trying to put Nicky behind bars, Kevin Nealon as Hell's gatekeeper, Rodney Dangerfield as Satan's father, Robert Smigel as the voice of Beefy -- a talking dog who is Nicky's guide on earth, Allen Covert as Todd -- Nicky's new roommate, and Peter Dante and Jonathan Loughran as a pair of metalheads who dig Satan.

This Big Apple-based romantic comedy charts the tumultuous relationship between liberal arts student and budding chef Al (Freddie Prinze Jr.) and his first girlfriend, Imogen (Julia Stiles), a self-possessed freshman who wants to become an artist. After meeting in a bar, the pair jump into a giddy, passionate affair that's grown-up enough to include face time between the young lovers and Al's DJ mom and TV-chef dad (Henry Winkler). After a summer abroad, however, Imogen feels like the relationship is robbing her of her youth, and the couple must struggle with romantic and domestic growing pains. Meanwhile, their wacky friends -- who include porn stars (Selma Blair and Zak Orth), stoners (Rosario Dawson), a mullet-haired lunkhead (Shawn Hatosy), and a Jim Morrison look-alike named Jim Morrison (Ashton Kutcher) -- provide laughs, advice, and sexual temptation. The debut film from writer/director Kris Isacsson, the teen-themed Down to You marked a change of pace for normally grown-up Miramax Films. In addition to a slew of recent rock and pop, the film prominently features music from such downtown New York fixtures of the past decade as Deee-Lite ("Groove is in the Heart") and Cibo Matto ("Moonchild"). ~ Brian J.

Billy Burke plays a school bus driver in a small Texas town who becomes a Country and Western superstar overnight thanks to songs like "I Found Love At A Family Reunion" and his unique dancing skills; unfortunately, his dance style is the result of an injured foot, and Dill has to keep hurting himself to keep giving his audience what they want. The film includes cameo appearances from actual country stars (including Willie Nelson and LeAnn Rimes) and supporting performances from Jason Priestley and Henry Winkler; rocker Sheryl Crow contributed an original music score. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Ground Control follows the reluctant return to work of Jack Harris (Kiefer Sutherland), a retired air traffic controller who is still haunted by his role in a probably unavoidable plane crash that has left him guilt-ridden and professionally gun shy. When a Phoenix airport fighting budget cutbacks calls him in for emergency duty, he begins experiencing flashbacks to the night of the disaster, all while trying desperately not to lose concentration even for the single moment it would take to cause a fresh disaster. He is supported by a seasoned supervisor (Bruce McGill) but challenged by a cocky young controller (Robert Sean Leonard) who not so privately questions his mettle. All must put aside their differences and band together when stormy weather and failing equipment puts another flight in harm's way. The tension mounts as a resourceful mechanic (Henry Winkler) tries to paste together the outdated circuitry and give the skeleton crew technical support beyond their professional cunning. Ground Control also stars Kristy Swanson and Kelly McGillis. ~ Derek Armstrong, Rovi

As with his previous films, comedian Adam Sandler and writing partner Tim Herlihy have conceived a simple premise, character, and title, and peppered their creation with visual sight gags. The story concerns Bobby Boucher, a Louisiana-born-and-bred kid living in the swamps with his overbearing, alligator-eating mom (Kathy Bates). Bobby is a water boy for the local college football team, and a damn good one, even good at turning a deaf ear at the ridicule he gets from the players and coach (Jerry Reed). But when Bobby is fired from his job, he is forced to continue his water management skills at the rival college, a losing team with a washed-up coach (Happy Days' "The Fonz," Henry Winkler). It's here that the coach teaches Bobby to channel his anger, and he makes a surprising discovery. The water boy can tackle like no one he's ever seen. Forced to keep his football talents from his mom, Bobby soon joins the college as a student and learns that there's more to life than alligator stew. He even falls for a perky ex-con (Fairuza Balk) who teaches Bobby about the birds and the bees. As Bobby leads his team toward victory, they get an invitation to play in the annual Bourbon bowl against his old college rivals. Bobby must choose between the love of his ailing mother and the glory of the final game -- or maybe there's a way he can get both. ~ Arthur Borman, Rovi

David--would you speak a bit about your relationship with wine, how you and your Wine Director interact and procure your wines? Is it collaborative? As a chef, do you take more of the lead with wine selection--i.e. do you first create a dish and then try to choose the best wine match for it or the reverse--do you start with a wine and then build a dish around the wine? Or do you turn the whole thing over to him--you create the dish that best represents your thought and feeling and say to him--find a match?
Since your list isn't on your website--I'm curious how you feel Canadian vintners are doing, how well represented Okanagan wines are on your list and which are your current favorites? How well represented are the wines of Ontario and Niagara-on-the-Lake? Do you have an easier time procuring European and Australian wine than American wine from CA/OR/WA?

Reveal the Path movie in Boulder/Denver this week! Submitted by Kris Thompson on Mon, 06/04/2012 - 14:59 News Item: Boulder CyclingCycling VideoDenver CyclingUpdate - the review Last night my 11 yr son and I attended the 9pm movie after the sold out 7pm movie. I came into this movie without really any expectations as my only research into this movie was the trailer.... it was about bikes, did I need more? The show started off with some live music from one of the musicians on the soundtrack (which just last night is on iTunes) and we were also treated to another trailer of a river movie the same director is working on. The movie "Reveal the Path" started and instantly I was thrown into confusion as to what the plot was but who cares, it's about bikes. But in general you have 4 guys, riding to 5 parts of the world to see some spectacular sights, ride some great "trails" and experience different cultures. Their route follows like this, Scottland, Switzerland, Morocco, Nepal, Alaska. The intent of the ride was to explore through beauty your way of life, your path, or something like that. Lots of deep feeling talk on the back drop of some pretty amazing views that left me thinking like Liz Lemon and saying "I want to go there".

Chris Kennison writes the Critics Corner.
"Katy Perry Part of Me" is a rare and unique glimpse into the life, childhood, upbringing, ups and down and tag along journey for the concert tour of a lifetime for Katy Perry. In the capable hands of producers Brian Grazer and Ron Howard, this isn't just your ordinary run-of-the-mill documentary/concert video, this is a story and a behind the scenes insight like I've never seen before.
A few things grabbed me as the movie starts with the preparation of her monster first world tour. They start with the setup for her first concert and her associating with her crew, dancers and staff before going into the opening number. She treats the people around her like gold. The people she hires to do her costumes, makeup, manage her schedule and organize her life aren't industry people. They are her friends. They were ordinary, run-of-the-mill people who Katy worked with when she was a nobody and she kept them. She loves them, and they love her and that is the nuts and bolts of "Part of Me".
Katy Perry may consider herself the 'Pied Piper of Weirdness', but I would consider her the 'Pied Piper of Genuineness'. It is the heart of her success, because it is exactly what took her, after years of struggle, out from under record labels that told her who she "should" be. Millions of fans, literally overnight, took to her personality of being exactly who she is and fell in love with her. She is the voice of this generation. I don't doubt that. We live in a time where traditions and expectations are blending with freedom of expression and freedom of genuineness. Katy Perry quite simply stands for being proud of who you are and being loud and proud about it. This very thing has made her a mega star.
In the Summer of 2011, Katy Perry did what only one artist had ever done before. She had 5 number one hits from one album. Only Michael Jackson had ever done that before. She did this by not being Avril Lavigne, Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson or who ever else she was told to be like, she did this by being herself and with "Part of Me" you find out, that herself is something good and decent. Until her late teens, she was raised in a strict religious household. Even though she broke from that mold and had to pursue a path apart from her parents, she still finishes her shows looking to the sky and saying, "Thank you God."
Sure, some of what she brings to the stage is like Willy Wonka meets Wizard of Oz but the essence of genuineness that she embodies is no different back stage, with fans or on stage. She is always exactly who she says she is. Although as the toll of the tour begins to mount with personal heartbreaks, we see how she has established a persona with her fans and despite hardships, they come to expect it and she must deliver.
"Katy Perry Part of Me" is not just a concert/behind the scenes video. It goes into the heart of an extremely genuine overnight sensation that is tackling life, just like all of us. The best movies are the ones you walk out of still thinking about, wanting to talk about and maybe even discovering a life lesson or two. "Part of Me" is one of those movies. You come out of that movie feeling a genuine kinship with a celebrity who can never be described as 'typical'. There was a joy in her eyes and smile throughout most of the movie, but toward the end some of that was gone and you want to console her like a friend. That's just the way she makes you feel, like everybody else she comes in contact with.


text: You've seen the stories of Abraham, Joseph, and Moses -- and now the story of John the Apostle comes alive on the screen as never before as Richard Harris takes the role of the biblical figure in this effort from filmmaker Raffaele Mertes. In 90 A.D., the Roman emperor launches a fierce campaign against the Christians, and John is being held captive for his efforts to spread the gospel. When a young Christian named Irene arrives with hopes of visiting the last surviving witness of the Lord's passion, John entrusts her with a written record of his divine visions that will eventually form the Book of Revelations. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

@melonegg How much did you pay in customs, do you know what percentage it is? Thanks in advance.
I've never had to pay any customs charges when ordering clothing. Maybe it doesnt apply to certain stuff? With Only, I've only ever paid whatever the delivery charge is ($15 international shipping on orders under $70, and I think its something like $37 for orders over $70) and it always seems to get to me fine a few weeks later.

Thanks for the reply, that's good to know!
It usually works out cheaper anyway without deals than ordering from a UK store, plus if your order directly you get the extra stickers included in all orders.

Hey Tom,
I hadn't thought about grasshopper using rhinocommon, I read where David had rewritten it to rhinocommon but the light bulb never came on. I'm more or less wondering it they plan to have it be backwards compatible or not.
Hi Don,
The Geometry Gym plugins also use Rhino Common in v4 (but then require that Grasshopper is installed, not necessarily active). It uses a similar strategy to Grasshopper to load rhino common if it is not already. Note for obvious reasons not all v5 rhinocommon methods and attributes are available.
So far it's worked well for me. As the set of methods and attributes I use is not too large, I did write a wrapper so that I can still compile my code in Rhinocommon syntax against openNurbs or the old libraries without too many alterations.
Cheers, Jon
Hi Jon,
Thanks for the reply. It had been suggested to me since they had made Rhinocommon open source I might be able to compile my own .dll to handle my plug-in. At this point in my programming "career" I wouldn't have a clue how to do that.
Since the last plug-in I wrote was in RhinoCommon I gained a little insight into how the V4 SDK is structured. It probably wouldn't be too difficult to write the plugin against the V4 SDK. I just wasn't sure if that would be necessary or not. I'm hoping there is a SR10 released in conjunction with V5 that incorporates RhinoCommon to with V4.

We are asked this question often, so we are thankful for the opportunity to explain the differences.There are some important factors to consider when evaluating a pitching machine:
- The type of construction. BATA machines are made of solid steel.
- There are no sand-castings or plastic on the frames or stands.
- The motors and electronics. Permanent magnet DC motors and solid-state electronic controls.
- The wheels. As explained below, BATA wheels are the most effective design.
- Ease of use. BATA machines are simple to set up, easy to adjust, easy to transport.
- Capacity. We have machines suited for players of all levels, priced accordingly.
Accuracy- BATA machines are the only machines that use our unique Goodyear Rubber Soft Tread pitching wheels. Our Soft Tread wheels are solid, die-cast, flat-faced rubber treads, molded and vulcanized onto a machined aluminum core. The result is better accuracy, more speed, and better consistency than competitive brands.
Bottom line, BATA gives you more machine for your money!

Sazzi and its unique Toe Motion™ Footwear was inspired by the original pueblo-dwelling tribes of North America, the Anasazi. Ahead of their time, these people understood the advantages of multiple toe posts; their footwear featured two toe posts to stabilize their feet as they traversed the hardcore terrain of their native "Four Corners Canyon Lands."
The word Sazzi (spelling in kind) today translates as: "to be light and agile, yet strong, like a feather." Thus, Sazzi's patent-pending four-toe footwear strives to bring you into an active, light, and powerful state of being. Through incredible support and lateral stability, the modernized yet still long-standing toe design will help connect you to the earth, helping you be truly present within the environment.

Walton & Hersham boss Steve Baker demanded his players cut out the stupid mistakes ahead of this weekend's FA Cup clash with Horsham.
Following a 1-0 win at Corinthian Casuals on Saturday, the Swans went down 2-0 at home to Walton Casuals on Monday – a result Baker lays firmly at the feet of Steven Betancourt after the defender was sent off with the scores level.
The Swans have lost two out of six Ryman Division One South games, and in both games they were reduced to 10 men.
Now, with the financial rewards of the FA Cup preliminary round up for grabs, Baker wants no more foul ups.
"In the four games where we finished with 11 players, we've picked up 10 points and in the two games where we've had a man sent off, we've picked up none – you do the maths," he said.
"Against Walton Casuals we were much the better tea, but then Steven went in two-footed for no reason and had to be sent off.
"I don't know why he did it and it cost us the game. It was sweltering day and we'd played 48 hours earlier, so it could not have come at a worse time.
"I told him in the dressing room that he had let me, the staff and supporters down and that if it happened again, he would not play for us anymore.
"It's what I told Mark [McLeod] after he was sent off against Hythe. I am not talking about harsh sendings off or two yellow cards, I am talking about the stupid mistakes which we must eradicate if we're to do anything in the league."
Walton & Hersham host Horsham this weekend in the FA Cup.
