Does anyone know where I can rent a underwater case near belgium/netherlands. Or how much it cost to buy one?
While this does not help finding a housing, be sure to watch your camera temperature when enclosing an Epic/Scarlet in a sealed environment without any air circulation.
I am taking delivery of an EPIC housing this week and am located in france, I could make it available to you in Paris by friday. Email me via clay (at) haskellfilms (dot) com if your interested.
What housing is water cooled. Any pictures?
All housings are water cooled no? They go under water.
I personally would try deep x if i was going to buy.
It's great size. It's built by a underwater cinematographer and deep sea diver who is also an engineer. It's a very good price point. It uses nikonos lenses which can be interchanged underwater and are easy to buy and low cost. Also these lenses were built for underwater use.
The nikon lenses also mean no dome port is needed so the light refraction from the glass at angles means greater edge resolution.
"An air-corrected wide-angle lens behind a dome port, no matter how expensive, will always give lower edge resolution than a properly water-corrected lens. This is due to the introduction of chromatic aberration at the air-water boundary"
From: http://www.camerasunderwater.co.uk/nikonos
"Many Nikonos lenses, the "UW" series, were specifically designed for underwater use with water directly contacting the lens. It is said that, even to this day, no underwater camera system matches the Nikonos lenses for sharpness and color saturation underwater."
From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikonos
That's what i would buy.
Thanks Jason,
Yes, we have just released DeepX. It is the smallest housing for the Epic/Scarlet available. It is also the only housing that can resolve 5k underwater and the only one that does not introduce any distortions.
Hey Pawel, how much are you selling these for?
Hey Will,
They are $20k without the lens and $21k with a serviced Nikonos 15mm. They are now sold by Band Pro, Burbank.
The package includes titanium side handles and titanium bottom (or top, they fit either way) rails.
If you are quick, there is one listed on eBay that is still at the introductory price of $15,750 and, if you are really quick, I have one with me in LA now. I'm going back to Sydney tomorrow (Wednesday) late afternoon.
I had a pleasure diving with Bob Cranston and Peter Kragh off Catalina yesterday and Bob absolutely loves it. He said that this is what he wants to use for his Epic, which he took underwater for the first time inside the DeepX. He thinks it is the best housing for the Epic, so I'm obviously very happy to hear this coming from Bob.
Quite a bit of misinformation there...
Nikonos lenses aren't interchangeable underwater. (And no zoom lenses - so always stuck with a single focal length.)
You also fail to mention that the widest non-fisheye - the famous 15mm - is really a 20mm and has an angle of view of 94 degrees on full frame 36x24 mm 35mm SLR sized film but only 75 degrees on Epic 5K and only 63 degrees on 4K. (this is a very significant reason why you should consider keeping your epic and not swapping for a 4K only Scarlet). 94 degrees would be sufficient however even then it is not as wide as almost all modern (i.e. 1990s and later) professional underwater rigs where 100 to 110 degrees is common with rectilinear lenses.
You also should have put the whole quote for the "An air corrected..." quote, it paints a much different picture for digital photography:
Full quote:
"One of the principal advantages of the Nikonos system was the availability of water-corrected lenses, which (before the advent of software radial correction) always gave a higher resolution than an equivalent air-corrected lens mounted behind a port.
An air-corrected wide-angle lens behind a dome port, no matter how expensive, will always give lower edge resolution than a properly water-corrected lens. This is due to the introduction of chromatic aberration at the air-water boundary. If the camera is a digital camera however, or if the film is to be scanned, it is possible to correct for chromatic aberration using software. If software correction is applied, a good air-corrected lens can be turned into a good water-corrected lens, and results similar to or better than those obtained with UW-Nikkor lenses can easily be achieved."
And this quote may have been true a long time ago when it was written:
"Many Nikonos lenses, the "UW" series, were specifically designed for underwater use with water directly contacting the lens. It is said that, even to this day, no underwater camera system matches the Nikonos lenses for sharpness and color saturation underwater." and this part of your post "The nikon lenses also mean no dome port is needed" is misleading since the Nikonos 15 also uses a dome, with additional internal correction for the refocusing and aberrations. In fact the reason the actual 20mm lens is called a 15mm Nikonos is that when it was introduced decades ago there were almost always only flat ports - so they called it a 15mm since it was equivalent to a 15mm behind a flat port! But in the past 15 years or so (since the Nikonos died) there have been several fully corrected optics sold that approach or exceed the Nikonos 15 (Expensive, but not as much as a Deep-X). Since the overwhelming majority of professional underwater motion pictures were being shot with 2/3" or smaller sensors, it is only recently that those designs are being scaled up to work with the larger sensors in our Scarlets and Epics.
I know this is repetitious, but you and Pawel are also being repetitious in promotion to newcomers without adequately acknowledging the serious limitations of using lenses designed for a much larger format - in a medium (underwater) that demands getting as wide a field of view as you can reasonably get. In most situations the much greater color saturation and overall clarity you get with shooting with 90+ degree field of view and therefore through a shorter water column, will outweigh the increased sharpness on the edges that you might get with the Nikonos lens.

Hereford United cut ticket prices for Forest Green Rovers visit
11:00am Thursday 20th September 2012 in Sport By Richard Prime
HEREFORD United have cut ticket prices for next Tuesday's local derby with high-flying Forest Green Rovers.
But Bulls fans will first need to attend Saturday's home clash with Cambridge United as their ticket from the weekend's game will act as a money-off voucher.
"We are conscious that supporters have been travelling up and down the country following the team in a difficult financial climate," said chairman David Keyte .
"We have three occasions this season when a Saturday home game is followed by another on a Tuesday and we saw what happened the first time when the gate against Woking for the Tuesday night game dropped to under 1,500.
"We have very loyal supporters and this is a small gesture to them. We all need to stick together."
Adult prices are reduced by £6 and concession prices by £5 for the Forest Green match for those with vouchers.
Meanwhile, after two bad away defeats at Hyde and Dartford, boss Martin Foyle has received some welcome good news with striker Marlon Jackson fit for selection for Saturday.
"Marlon has been back in training for the last 10 days and is raring to go," he said.
The Bulls chief has, however, lost loan striker Tom Nichols, who has been recalled by Exeter City, and the non-contract arrangement with Tristan Plummer has ended. "I thought it was time to change the pack," said Foyle. "I've had a good look around now and have some irons in the fire. "But the attitude of the players is good; I just need some of the younger players to grow up more quickly than they might have done and take responsibility."
Michael Townsend (sore back) is still likely to be sidelined at the weekend but there is more encouraging news of Chris Carruthers (heel) and Simon Clist (ankle).
"The last three second-halves of matches have been very poor," admitted Foyle. "There were no real leaders on the pitch, which was a disappointment, so we have gone back to a total team ethic and looked at our shape and positional play."
The Hereford boss added: "All of the players have taken home a DVD of the game at Dartford to look at their performances."

Three Acclaimed Musicians to Perform Arias from Film, Monday, September 10
- 9-5-2012
Stillman College will hold a free faculty recital featuring opera arias heard in the movies Philadelphia, Moonstruck, Fatal Attraction and Diva. Three highly acclaimed musicians will perform in the program, which will be held on Monday, September 10, 7 p.m., in the Warner Presentation Room in the Wynn Fine Arts Center on the Stillman campus.
Soprano Luvada A. Harrison, who serves as Interim Chair and Associate Professor of Music at Stillman, will be accompanied by pianist Hye-Sook Jung, Assistant Professor of Music at Stillman. They will be joined by award winning tenor Roderick George, Associate Professor of Music at the University of Montevallo.
Dr. Jung has performed frequently on the Alabama Public Television series "The Pianists at Work," and is a past recipient of the Narramore Music Scholar Award. She was a winner of the Concerto and Aria competition, and was featured on Alabama Public Television performing a solo with the Huxford Symphony Orchestra. She has collaborated with numerous local, regional and international artists, and has performed in four cities in South Korea.
Dr. Harrison made her Carnegie Hall debt as a soloist with the Manhattan Philharmonic and her Lincoln Center debut in Alice Tully Hall with the New York Choral Society as the soprano soloist in Rossini's Stabat Mater. She performed off-Broadway as the opera singer in Prelude and Liebstod by Tony Award winner Terrence McNally. She also played Aida in the "Drama Queens" episode on HBO's hit series Sex in the City. She has performed with regional opera companies and symphony orchestras throughout the United States and Europe.
Dr. George holds a Doctor of Music degree in voice performance from the College of Music at The Florida State University, a Master of Music degree in Opera and Music Theater from Southern Illinois University (Carbondale), and undergraduate degrees in music and English from Stillman College. He received advanced training in opera at the American Institute of Musical Studies in Graz, Austria, and he was an artist in residence with Amarillo Opera and an apprentice artist with Des Moines Metro Opera. He has been a featured soloist in several orchestral concerts in Austria. He completed two concert tours of Spain and has been a featured artist in concerts with Opera Noire of New York for the Vineyard Playhouse African-American Festival of Theater and Music on Martha's Vineyard. A champion of the African American art song, Dr. George recently premiered Adolphus Hailstork's Four Romantic Love Songs for tenor and piano on poems of Dunbar at the 2012 African American Art Song Alliance Conference at the University of California, Irvine.
The recital is free and open to the public. For more information, contact email@example.com or email@example.com.

Of parents and children
There's been two famous, or rather, infamous sets of parents in the news recently.
On Thursday, Randy and Amy Loughner got a good look at what hell must look like as they had the chance to sit in a courtroom and listen to the victims of their son, Jared Loughner. In January 2011, Loughner shot and killed six people and injured 13 more, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.
At Thursday's sentencing, they sat behind their son, weeping as his victims spoke.

Oliver Platt Movies
A hulking character actor who brings new meaning to the concept of versatility,
Oliver Platt
has appeared in a dizzying array of films that make him instantly recognizable but not instantly placeable to the average filmgoer. Since making his screen debut as an oily Wall Street drone in
Mike Nichols
Working Girl
(1988), Platt has lent his talents to almost every conceivable genre, including period dramas, political comedies, children's films, and campy horror movies.
The son of a U.S. Ambassador, Platt was born in Windsor on January 12, 1960, Platt and his family soon moved to Washington, D.C. Thanks to his father's job, he had an exceptionally itinerant childhood. By the time he was 18, he had attended 12 different schools in places as diverse as Tokyo, the Middle East, and Colorado. Long interested in acting, Platt received a BA in drama from Boston's Tufts University; following graduation, he remained in Boston for three years to pursue his stage career. In 1986 he moved to New York, where he performed in a number of off-Broadway productions and had the lead in the 1989 Lincoln Center production of Ubu.
Following his screen debut in
Working Girl
, Platt began finding steady work in such films as
Married to the Mob
Postcards from the Edge
(1992) -- which featured him and future collaborator
Stanley Tucci
as puppy thieves -- and
Benny and Joon
(1993). He also proved himself adept at cheesy period drama in
The Three Musketeers
(1993), which cast him as Porthos, and at all-out comedy, as demonstrated by his turn as a struggling comic in
Funny Bones
(1995). Rarely cast as a leading man, Platt has always been visible in substantial supporting roles, equally comfortable at portraying nice guys, bad guys, and just flat out weird guys alike. As
Ashley Judd
's suitor in
Simon Birch
(1998), he was the straight man, while in The Impostors (1998), his second collaboration with Tucci (two years earlier he served as associate producer for the latter's
Big Night
), he again displayed his capacity for broad physical comedy as a struggling actor who finds himself a stowaway on an ocean liner. In
Dangerous Beauty
(1998), Platt was able to exercise his nasty side as a bitter nobleman-turned-religious zealot in 16th-century Venice; that same year, his capacity for exasperated quirkiness was displayed in
, which cast him as
Warren Beatty
's put-upon, coke-snorting campaign manager.
1999 proved to be a somewhat disappointing year for Platt, as two of his films,
Three to Tango
(which featured him as a gay architect) and the schlock-horror
Lake Placid
, which cast him as an idiosyncratic mythology expert, were both critical and commercial flops. A third film that year,
Bicentennial Man
-- in which Platt played the scientist who turns the titular robot (
Robin Williams
) into a man -- fared somewhat better. The following year, Platt's comic abilities were again on display in
Gun Shy
, in which he hammed it up as a bottom-rung mafioso with an overblown ego.
Fortunately for the workhorse actor, the 2000s seemed to prove the boost -- and exposure -- his sagging career needed. Earning back to back Emmy nominations in 2006 and 2007 for his performance opposite former Tufts University classmate Hank Azaria in the weekly dramedy Huff, Platt was also nominated for a Screen Actor's Guild Award for his turn as New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner in the TV mini-series The Bronk is Burning (2007). With 2008 came yet another Ammy nomination -- this time for his guest role on the hit FX series Nip/Tuck -- and in 2009 he appeared as Nathan Detroit in the Broadway revival of Guys and Dolls. Other notable television appearances from this phase of Platt's career included a recurring character on the seriocomic HBO series Bored to Death and a prominent role as the husband of a suburban housewife diagnosed with cancer in the Showtime comedy drama series The Big C. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

Set in the era before Professor Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr became mortal enemies as Professor X and Magneto, respectively, director Matthew Vaughn's X-Men: First Class follows the two former allies as they lead a powerful team of mutants on a mission to save the planet from nuclear annihilation. Charles (James McAvoy) and Erik (Michael Fassbender) were just young men when it began to appear as if the world was careening toward destruction. As the Doomsday Clock ticks faster toward midnight, the time comes to take action. Realizing they could use their unique powers to avert a global thermonuclear war during the Bay of Pigs crisis, the two powerful mutants launch an intense recruitment campaign with the support of Dr. Moira MacTaggert (Rose Byrne) and the CIA. Before long, Charles and Erik have assembled a crack team that includes Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), Banshee (Caleb Landry Jones), Beast (Nicholas Hoult), Angel (Zoe Kravitz), Havok (Lucas Till), and Darwin (Edi Gathegi). Meanwhile, the malevolent Sebastian Shaw (Kevin Bacon) plots to plunge the world into war with the help of villainous mutants Riptide (Alex Gonzalez), Azazel (Jason Flemyng), and Emma Frost (January Jones).

A family looking for some extra space gets drawn into a difficult relationship with the folks next door in this comedy drama from writer and director Nicole Holofcener. Kate (Catherine Keener) and Alex (Oliver Platt) are a couple living in New York City who run a successful store specializing in vintage furniture. Kate and Alex have a teenage daughter, Abby (Sarah Steele) and their apartment is starting to feel a bit small for the three of them; Kate and Alex own the unit next door to them, and once the flat becomes vacant, they plan to knock out a wall and take over the space. However, Andra (Ann Morgan Guilbert), their tenant, is an elderly woman with a poor disposition who doesn't seem eager to go anywhere soon, and it's occurred to Kate and Alex that they're probably going to have wait for her to die, since evicting her would be very awkward.

Zed (Black) and Oh (Cera) may lack in the skills that their chieftain is looking for, but they have plans to make it big. Zed has a gut feeling that God has "chosen" him, and so he leads his buddy on a trip through the unknown countryside in search of bigger and better things, bumping into several weird characters along the way -- like a feuding pair of brothers named Cain and Abel (David Cross and Paul Rudd). Unfortunately, their quest for greatness hits a few snags, like being sold into slavery, and later becoming the object of interest to a very amorous, very hairy high priest (Oliver Platt) in the opulent city of Sodom. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Chiwetel Ejiofor, Danny Glover, Amanda Peet, Thandie Newton, and Oliver Platt round out the cast of this end-of-the-world thriller co-scripted by the director and his 10,000 B.C. writer/composer, Harald Kloser. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Add Frost/Nixon to top of Queue
Hollywood heavyweight Ron Howard adapts playwright Peter Morgan's West End hit for the silver screen with this feature focusing on the 1977 television interviews between journalist David Frost (Michael Sheen) and former president Richard Nixon (Frank Langella). At the time Nixon sat down with Frost to discuss the sordid details that ultimately derailed his presidency, it had been three years since the former commander in chief had been forced out of office. The Watergate scandal was still fresh in everyone's minds, and Nixon had remained notoriously tight-lipped until he agreed to sit down with Frost. Nixon was certain that he could hold his own opposite the up-and-coming British broadcaster, and even Frost's own people weren't quite sure their boss was ready for such a high-profile interview. When the interview ultimately got under way and each man eschewed the typical posturing in favor of the simple truth, fans and critics on both sides were stunned by what they witnessed. Instead of Nixon stonewalling the interviewer as expected, or Frost lobbing softballs as the truth-seekers feared, what emerged was an unguardedly honest exchange between a man who had lost everything and another with everything to gain. In this film, viewers are treated to not only a recreation of that landmark interview, but a behind-the-scenes look at the power struggles that led up to it as well. Tim Bevan, Eric Fellner, and Brian Grazer team to produce a film adapted for the screen by original play author Morgan (The Queen and The Last King of Scotland). ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

As Season 5 begins, Christian (Julian McMahon) joins Sean (Dylan Walsh) in Los Angeles, where they soon discover they're pretty small fish in a very big plastic-surgery pond. Needing exposure for the practice, they hire a publicist (Lauren Hutton), who finds them work as medical advisers for the prime-time soap opera "Hearts & Scalpels." It doesn't pan out for Christian, but the opposite holds true for Sean, who begins wielding a scalpel on-screen after the show's star (Bradley Cooper) is fired in a sex scandal. Sean also dates his costar (Paula Marshall) and meets another publicist, Colleen Rose (Sharon Gless), on the set. Colleen takes an intense interest in him, but Julia (Joely Richardson), who arrives in L.A. from New York, has lost interest in him. She's also involved with someone else -- a woman named Olivia Lord (Portia de Rossi). Olivia's promiscuous and duplicitous teen daughter Eden (AnnaLynne McCord) immediately dislikes Julia. Eden also has a brief fling with Sean and ends up in a threesome with Kimber (Kelly Carlson) and Kimber's old porn boss Ram Peters (John Schneider). Kimber has left Matt (John Hensley), but they share custody of their daughter. Meanwhile, Liz (Roma Maffia) follows Christian and Sean from Miami, but leaves McNamara/Troy after a falling out with Christian. Her replacement, adventurous Theodora "Teddy" Rowe (Katee Sackhoff), a recreational anesthesia user, has an affair with Sean. And Dawn Budge (Rosie O'Donnell) finds herself at McNamara/Troy after being bitten by an eagle while hang gliding. She becomes romantically involved with "Hearts & Scalpels" executive producer Freddy Prune (Oliver Platt). And then there's Christian, who has his own issues. He gets sexually reacquainted with Julia and Gina Russo (Jessalyn Gilsig), his adopted son Wilber's sex-addicted mother. Then he faces a health crisis. ~ Paul Droesch, All Movie Guide

Much of the group responsible for MTV's The State -- including director/actor David Wain and performers Ken Marino, Kerri Kenney-Silver, and Joe Lo Truglio -- reunite for this outrageous, irreverent, and raunchy sketch comedy, which skewers the Ten Commandments. In the framing sequences, comedian Paul Rudd (who collaborated with much of the cast on Wet Hot American Summer and The Baxter) stands on a black stage with giant Biblical tablets projected behind him and promises to deliver ten mini-stories, each loosely based on one of the commandments, from "Thou Shalt Have No Other Gods Before Me" through "Thou Shalt Not Covet." For all of the storyteller's efforts, however, he is constantly, comically distracted by interferences, particularly those emanating from intrusions by his multiple girlfriends. The stories are nonetheless told one by one in short-film form, beginning with a sketch in which Stephen (Adam Brody) goes skydiving with his intended, Kelly (Winona Ryder), but forgets to wear his parachute and gets stuck in the mud, waist-deep, which draws gawkers, media, and in time, worshipers. Several of the subsequent stories consist of raunchy, jet-black riffs on sexual perversion, including one about a virginal librarian (Gretchen Mol) entangled in a sultry and messy affair with a Mexican, and another memorable bit about a nutty surgeon who plays a prank by burying a pair of scissors in a patient's stomach and is then sent to prison -- where he experiences brutal sexual abuse at the hands of other men. As an added bonus, the picture packs in a fully animated sequence, narrated by several crack-smokers, entitled "The Lying Rhino." ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Add The Bronx Is Burning to top of Queue
Filmed on location in New York and Connecticut, the ESPN miniseries The Bronx is Burning was a vivid (if not overly expensive) retelling of the New York Yankees' championship year of 1977. Heading the enormous cast of celebrity lookalikes were Oliver Platt as Yankees owner George Steinbrenner and John Turturro as team manager Billy Martin. The infamously volatile relationship between the two men was the heart of the series, with the prickly Martin curiously emerging as the hero of the piece. Setting the story in motion was the hiring of baseball superstar Reggie Jackson (Daniel Sunjata), the first of several measures taken by the Yanks to reclaim the World Series. To place the action at Yankee Stadium in proper historical context, much was made of the other events which kept the citizens of New YOrk on their collective toes in the summer of 1977, including the frantic search for the serial killer known as the "Son of Sam", the devastating power blackout, the fractious mayoral race, and the ongoing violence in the streets of the Bronx. The title of the series derived from the famous TV-news headline "Ladies and Gentlemen, the Bronx is Burning", which was also the title of the Jonathan Mahler novel upon which the show was based. The Bronx is Burning first roared into flame on July 10, 2007. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

History's most renowned ladies' man finally meets his match in this historical romance laced with comedy and adventure. In Venice in 1753, Giacomo Casanova (Heath Ledger) is a notorious playboy whose way with women goes too far when he's caught leaving the bedroom of a novice nun, and one of the leading prosecutors of the Inquisition, Pucci (Jeremy Irons), puts him on trial. The Doge (Tim McInnerny), Venice's political point man, is a friend of Casanova's and pulls strings to get him off the hook and allow him to stay in the city, but under one condition -- he must take a wife and remain faithful to her. Casanova sets his sights on Victoria (Natalie Dormer), a lovely young maiden who is obviously taken with the handsome ladykiller, but he's not the only one who wants her hand. Giovanni Bruni (Charlie Cox) is a young man who is very much in love with Victoria, and in order to move him out of the picture, Casanova challenges him to a duel. However, when Casanova is bested in swords in the challenge, he discovers he's actually been parrying with Giovanni's sister, Francesca (Sienna Miller). As Casanova gets to know Francesca, he discovers she's a gifted writer and a bright and independent woman as well as a good hand with a sword, and he comes to the realization that she's the woman he wants to take to the altar. However, Francesca has already been promised to the vain and chubby Papprizzio (Oliver Platt), a man she's never met, and she doesn't seem at all interested in the notorious Casanova. Casanova also stars Lena Olin, and Omid Djalili. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Two men on the run from the mob end up negotiating more than their share of obstacles along the way in this comedy drama from director Harold Ramis. Vic Cavanaugh (Billy Bob Thornton) and Charlie Arglist (John Cusack) are a pair of friends who work for Bill Gerard (Randy Quaid), a mobster with his finger in a number of illegal businesses. Vic runs a pornography distribution outfit for Bill, while Charlie is a lawyer who keeps Bill and his partners out of jail, and between them, Vic and Charlie have stolen over two million dollars in cash from Bill. On Christmas Eve, Vic and Charlie plan to make off with their money and escape Bill's clutches once and for all, but while Vic stays cool and collected, an increasingly nervous Charlie stops off at a topless bar to fortify his courage with a few drinks, and ends up causing a scene with Renata (Connie Nielsen), a dancer he's long had his eye on. It doesn't take long for word about Charlie to get back to Bill, who sends an enforcer out to track him down, but while Charlie tries to make tracks, he ends up having to look after his friend Pete (Oliver Platt), who is much more drunk than Charlie and even more inclined to make a nuisance of himself.

Add Kinsey to top of Queue
Alfred Kinsey was an entomologist who taught at Indiana University and had a keen interest in an area of human behavior that had seen little scholarly research -- human sexuality. While the courtship and reproductive patterns of animals had been carefully documented, Kinsey believed that most "established facts" about human sexual behavior were a matter of conjecture rather than research and that what most people said about their sex lives was not born out by the evidence (a subject that had personal resonance for him given the troubles he and his wife Clara Kinsey had in the early days of their marriage). After introducing a course in "Marriage" at Indiana University which offered frank and factual information on sex to students, Kinsey began an exhaustive series of interviews with a wide variety of people from all walks of life in order to find out the truth about sex practices in America. When he published Sexual Behavior and the Human Male in 1948, his findings were wildly controversial, indicating that most men had a wider variety of sexual experiences than most people imagined, including a number of practices commonly thought to be dangerous or perverted (including pre-marital sex, same-sex contacts, and masturbation). An even greater outcry greeted Kinsey's next volume, Sexual Behavior and the Human Female, which contradicted common notions than most women went into marriage sexually inexperienced. Kinsey is a film biography written and directed by Bill Condon which examines Kinsey's life and work from his strict childhood until his death in 1956. Liam Neeson plays Alfred Kinsey, and Laura Linney co-stars as Kinsey's wife and colleague Clara. John Lithgow highlights the supporting cast as Kinsey's repressed and moralistic father, while Chris O'Donnell, Peter Sarsgaard, and Timothy Hutton play members of Kinsey's research team and Tim Curry appears as an IU faculty member at odds with Kinsey's teachings. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A mother once neglected as child but possessed of a heart overflowing with love grows increasingly despondent as her beloved child begins to claim his independence in director Kevin Bacon's adaptation of Victoria Redel's best-selling novel. If loving too much were a crime, well-meaning but overbearing mother Emily (Kyra Sedgwick) would be spending life behind bars with no hope of parole. When Emily was a child, her parents were deeply in love with one another but tragically indifferent to their affection-starved daughter. Now a grown adult with a deep-rooted desire to bear a child, Emily goes to desperate lengths to conceive before eventually giving birth to an exceptionally gifted boy whom she names Paul. Emily's devotion to Paul burns brighter than a thousand suns as she creates a wondrous world of books, music, art, and games to share with her growing child, but her ever more desperate attempts to preserve the purity of their relationship reach a frantic fever pitch as a kindhearted local man opens his life to the pair and Paul prepares for his first year of school. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Add Huff: Season 01 to top of Queue
Up until the day that a 15-year-old patient committed suicide right in the middle of his office, prosperous L.A. psychiatrist Dr. Craig "Huff" Huffstodt (Hank Azaria) had been sublimely confident that his was the most secure and well-ordered of lives. But as he finds out in the course of Huff's first season on Showtime, our hero is the central figure in a bizarre, often incomprehensible real-life scenario festooned with hitherto untapped neuroses, sexual hang-ups, dysfunctional family members, and jaw-dropping plot convolutions. Just your typical, everyday midlife crisis. Inasmuch as the parents of his unfortunate teenage patient hold Huff responsible for the suicide, Huff's attorney, Russell Tupper (Oliver Platt), would seem to be the "go-to guy" whenever the going gets too rough. Unfortunately, despite his sympathy toward Huff's plight and his pithy words of wisdom, Tupper himself is an angst-ridden mess, as he proves via his weird behavior during a Medical Board hearing. There's worse in store for Tupper when his latest client turns out to be the hooker (Nichole Mercedes Robinson) with whom he'd previously enjoyed a spontaneous one-night orgy. As for Huff's self-absorbed mother, Izzy (Blythe Danner), she had never been a pillar of moral support before, and is even less of one now as she prepares to divorce Huff's long-estranged father, Ben (Robert Forster). Izzy's other son, Teddy (Andy Comeau), wouldn't have been of any help even if he hadn't gotten himself lost in the middle of a field trip. And Huff's own son, Byrd (Anton Yelchin), has begun messing around with illegal substances, much to the dismay of Huff's wife, Beth (Paget Brewster), who already has a big-time cross to bear in the form of the grave illness that is sapping the life from her mother, Madeleine (Swoosie Kurtz). And believe it or not, this litany of misfortune is often played for laughs -- successfully! Adding to Huff's burdens are the ravings of his bipolar patient Melody Coatar (Lara Flynn Boyle), and his brief flirtation with infidelity as he dallies with a sexy pharmaceutical rep. It's not for nothing that the series' holiday offering is titled "Christmas Is Ruined" -- just as the season finale, "Crazy Nuts & All Fucked Up" bears an appropriate moniker, given Huff's anguished response to his mom Izzy's post-menopausal love affair with...well, let's not give away the entire plot! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

WICHITA — The ever-popular Free State Brewing Co. in Lawrence is participating in the Midwest Beerfest Saturday and having a tasting at the Anchor that night, but that's not the exciting news for fans of the bar and its brew.
Starting Monday, four of Free State's beers will be available at liquor stores throughout the city.
Standard Beverage is distributing Free State's Wheat State Golden, Copperhead Pale Ale, Oatmeal Stout and Ad Astra Ale.
"Those are the ones that have been kind of our flagship beers since we opened 20 years ago," owner Chuck Magerl says. "Those have been the perennial favorites."
He started selling bottles in Lawrence in May. Magerl thought he'd be in the rest of the state by June, but it didn't work out.
"The response in Lawrence was so great . . . we didn't even tiptoe our way to Topeka till August."
In September, he made it to Johnson County stores.
"So this month we're finally making it into the Wichita market," he says.
The demand has been so high, it's been a much slower process than Magerl expected.
"There are certainly worse problems in this economy," he says. "We're grateful for that."
Magerl says there's incredible growth in the craft beer industry nationally and in Kansas. He also notes that Wichita is a great dining town.
"We're excited about Wichita," he says. "It's a big step for us."

Black Angus Steakhouse - Federal Way
Online Reservations
We had to ask for refills on all our drinks; they weren't monitored and our salads came prior to our appetizers. I know it was busy. Our waiter was very nice, however.
We had made early reservations so there weren't many patrons. No doubt that contributed to the quiet noise level. That said, the high backed booths really enhance the feeling of privacy and reduce the noise level. The food was very good, as was the service. The steaks and ribs were yummy! We will definitely make a return visit in the future, and would not hesitate to recommend it to friends.
We went for Mothers day and i loved it the sevice and food was Yummy & GREAT!!
The booths felt nice and secluded, sound was muted and easy to talk with your neighbor. The only thing I found a tad annoying was how many things the waiter will try to up charge you for. I can understand a appetizer get your drinks started question, but if I wanted to add Mushrooms that cost money. Still all in all the steak was perfect;y done, and the sides were solid.
Our family enjoyed a tastey dinner with a very attentive waitstaff, Even though the restaurant was busy on a Friday night, our waitress kept an eye out on our table. A water glass didn't get below half and made sure that our bar orders were correct, The food was served hot and in a timely manner. An overall pleasant evening.
We went to dinner on Friday, 06-07-2013 at the Federal Way Black Angus restaurant to commence a four-day celebration of our 40th Wedding Annioversary which is on Sunday, June 9th. The host/hostess/greeters were very congenial and courteous and even though we had a timed reservation, we only had to wait a couple of minutes to be seated at our table. "Katie" was our server and very polite and professional in her demeanor. We really enjoyed her attention. The food was GREAT. My wife had Filet Mignon and I had Salmon. All very well prepared. Thank you for a very pleasant evening.
Servers were very helpful and considerate of our needs. The food was served hot and full of taste.
Everything was fantastic from the service to the meal excellent Thanks
Busy holiday (Father's Day). We we're seated immediately after arrival, having made online reservations. Service was fast, food was served fast and steaks cooked perfectly as ordered. Excellent timely service. We were even able to use a coupon which saved 20% of bill. Very nice Father's Day restaurant choice.
The food was great. Service was good. I wish all the dinners came with a small dinner salad so you could get two veggies with your meal.
My fiance loves steak and it's never quite right when we go out to restaurants. He said this was the first place that it was done perfeclty. Thanks for making our date night special!
I'd had to make a quick arrangement for dinner with a visiting relative. I was able to make a quick reservation and also be assured that the selection and dinner would be good. My grand-nephew was not disappointed. We had an excellent visit, relaxed dining and fine food. Thx for a great job.
My husband and I wanted to celebrate his birthday. He wanted a nice steak. We headed to Black Angus. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. Our food was delicious. The corn on the cob side - highly recommended by our server - was wonderful! We are both grateful to Black Angus for helping us celebrate in style. It was a lovely evening :)
The 3 visits I've ever went to Black Angus were truly delightful. I can't get enough of that exquisite charbroiled taste of the open12oz. Sirloin steak smothered with onions n mushrooms, the best! The entire staff always smiling n friendly welcoming every guest in a waythat feels comfortably like old pals getting together to enjoy a great meal. No doubt I'd recommend all to go no matter the occasion, just go. Thanks for an awesome meal n exquisite service.
Good food,not great,but we didn't expect great food from this chain. A decent deal for the price. Service was very good, prompt and attentive.
We haven't had a steak like that in years. my husband got the special with the steak And 2kinds of shrimp and not only was the Steak perfect the shrimp was amazing! He loved the bacon wraped one. I got teriyaki steak it was again mouth Watering! Fantastic food! On the other had we will NOT be getting A drink again. Got a large Margarita (gold)? The glass was packed with ice and very little Drink. When we told waitress ( that's The way she makes it) she did offer to Pour more mix in it. Really? She said you Could of asked for little ice. Ok. Good to know After we just got the glass of ice for 11.00.
We had 2 nats flying around in are food. The is the only thing we did not like.
We all had a great time.Keith really liked the cookie & was very pleased with the Steak House in every aspect actually. Thank You all for a fun evening.
We ended up having a God time after moving around so much. Bhhh boyfriend ended his birthday dinner
We went to the restaurant to celebrate a job promotion with a coupon for the Campfire Feast. We had no problem showing our coupon and the waitress promptly took our order. the area where we sat was good and the manager had to come a couple of times to deliver our food because our waitress was helping other folks. However, our water got low and our waitress did not come back to ask if our meal was satisfactory or if we needed anything. Overall, I would still rate the experience a 4!!!
food wa great and service was great. thank you for the free steak dinner for my birthday enjoy a lot.
Had to wait awhile to get something to eat after we placed our order, but it was worth the wait, and the atmosphere made it able for easy conversation while we waited. The food was excellent with generous portions, and the waitress was very attentive in re-filling our drinks.
Stuart Anderson's is always a first choice for us when we are in an area where they are located. Our only disappoint was when they left Salem. Some of the best steak and lobster around!
This was a dinner to meet my sons future in laws.Dinner was excellent, and with a party of seven, was tucked away in a semi private part of the restaurant that was ideal for the occasion.
My wife and I don't dine out too much, but she wanted to go to BA for her birthday dinner. Both the food and the service were excellent! Thank you!
For the most part we usually take advantage of the "Campfire Dinner for Two" and we are never disappointed. With the sampler platter and the main course, there is plenty of great food to fill the average person with some left over. Most of the time the top sirloin is nice and thick and very tender but as with most restaurants you can get a tough one. The wait person is always friendly and take care to see that your needs are filled. The only negative might be finding a place to park at times. Overall the Black Angus is the place we go for all our special occasions and getting together with friends.
Our waitress was great to help us get gluten free items on the menu. She also accomodated me when after I ran my credit card I pulled out a gift card, so she had to rerun the transaction. She was so accomodating. Thanks
Love to go to the Federal Way Black Angus for a meal. The food is always great. The tall padded booths keeps the noise level to a minimum. The service was very good. I would recommend it to my Friends and Family.
Haven't been to Black Angus in quite some time but I remember the last experience being mediocre at best. This time was very different and quite nice. Nothing fancy, just really good tender steak, a lobster tail that wasn't over cooked and service that was very prompt and attentive, and I'm not even saying that because I'm from Portland and used to service that is generally abhorrent. Very good, I will return!
Food was good. I had ribs. The waitress kept our cups full and the food came at a good pace. Tried the new teriyaki steak app- not so great but the ribs made up for it.
This was the first time I visited the Black Angus restaurant. Being a restaurant chain, I had the perception that it would be something like a McDonald's upgrade. Wrong. Great place, great food and great service. Enjoyed the food and definitely will return.
We booked our reservation and requested Lisa. She is an excellent waitress. We just love her!!! We will be back:)
Seventieth birthday dinner for Grandma and family totaling eight. The food was very good, service excellent and the desert divine. We could not have designed it any better than the actual experience. I might add that the coupon saved us a total of $ 48.00. What more could we ask for or expect?
We celebrated our 56th wedding anniversary there. Had our favorite meals & took home a cheesecake for the special occasion.
Seated fasten a Friday night. All staff encountered were very friendly, helpful and down to earth. Food was typical, but combined with the timeliness and atmosphere, was more than adequate.
The servers were wonderful. Everyone received their order in a timely manner This is a great place for any celebration.
The steaks were delicious and cooked as requested, but the vegetables were especially well-prepared - just right!
We had a wonderful dining experience. The wait staff was friendly, courteous , and it didn't take a long time to get our food.
Great food and our server, Karen, was very friendly.
The service was excellent. This was Thanksgiving Day. Place was busy but was they where good at working the people to their table very quickly. We had there Thanksgiving Day meal. It was cook good. Food was nice and hot. Great pumpkin pie.! I would go back there again for Thanksgiving meal. Paul
This was the second year with did Thanksgiving at Black Angus. We go seated right away and the service was good. We ordered appetizers first and then are main meal. The food was hot and delicious! The atmosphere was good and so was the company at the table. We would recommend this restaurant as a great place to go for dinner or lunch.
Overall, it was a good experience. I think they were the only restaurant open on Thanksgiving in Federal Way so it was extremely crowded. We were seated 30 minutes after our reservation time, so most of the reservations must have shown up. The turkey was great, the salad pretty good and the pumpkin pie was too sweet. The timing was good. Often restaurants that serve Thanksgiving dinner bring the entree too soon because everything is pre-cooked. Our waiter obviously didn't want to be there and I had to ask for a water refill, which took too long but I realize holidays can be weird having been a server myself. The 2 older gentlemen who were managers seemed a bit apathetic. I'm sure nobody wanted to be working Thanksgiving.
The food was great for the price we paid. I will go there more often.
Helped us out with a reservation went the one we made at Stanford's fell though due to their incompetent staff.
This restaurant was fantastic. The food was good and generous portions. The wait staff was excellent, friendly but not over-friendly.
Wine list has a llot to be desired considering the price & quality of entrees. Very disappointed w/ choices & the quality. Did a tasting of 4 wines & were not happy with any. We ordered 3 1/2 oz prime ribs/ medium rare. Of the 3 entrees only one came med rare other 2 were med. food quality was good & we had waited too long & we were too hungry to send the food back. Our Caesar salads were the saving grace of the meal. They were EXCELLENT!
There was a group of 10 of us. I had made a reservation in advance and we waited maybe 5 minutes to get seated. They had 2 waitresses working with us. We were asked right away if we wanted appy's to start and drinks. We waited maybe 5 minutes before our appy's to arrive. We had joked because the parents of one of the boys had skipped over mac and cheese on the menu because they didn't want him to know about it or that would be all he ever eats until Granny noticed they had ommited it from him so she just happened to notice and proceeded to tell him so of course mac and cheese it was. The waitress was joking right along with us. It was a good time with good company and the service and waitresses were great.
Excellent Food, Excellent Service, Very good price (we used their coupon).
Service was excellent food was acceptable the steak my husband got was grissely and had a lot of fat
From the very beginning, we were greeted politely and courteously, seated quickly, and the wait staff was right on the money. The food was cooked as we asked and everything was great.

After I shampoo with this - even before I condition - I can really feel the difference with other shampoos. It does exactly what it says: silky and smooth hair!
Yasmina, Belgium
This shampoo(and the whole All Soft series) is best for thicker hair. It`s a very good shampoo, for dry, frizzy hair.
Christine, Norway
Great shampoo!!! My hair is coloured, dark, really long. I use a hair straightener every single day and recently it started to break. It was really dry and matte as well. This shampoo is amazing, my hair is super soft now
Aga, London
Love all Redken products. Gives my hair a lowely glow.

I love this shampoo, it works great with the conditioner too! My hair felt like straw after too much damage and this shampoo has revived it! Gorgeously soft and BRILLIANT shine, even feels good first thing in the morning before you even brush it, will never use anything else now!

Totally agree with the other reviews. I had a hairdresser commenting on how healthy my hair looked. I use this with the All Soft Conditioner. Two thumbs up.
Emma, London
Brilliant for very dry hair, gives dry brittle hair it's life back. Very soft and good condition.

I got the trial pack of this shampoo. I was really surprised that this shampoo really makes my hair soft and smooth. I definitely recommend it to everyone.
Yeung, Hong Kong
Following the start of going grey, I decided to go platinum. Needless to say, having my hair bleached was not going to be great for the condition of my hair. My hairdresser recommended All Soft right from the beginning. That was 3 years ago and I have never looked back. This product has looked after my hair wonderfully well and it always looks and feels great. No other product does the job!
Susan, London
Wow, this shampoo combined with the All Soft Conditioner is wonderful! Really does what it promises and my hair feels so soft and healthy after every wash. Wonderful scent too!
Anna-Stina, Finland
I like the smell of this one - it's sweet but at the same time natural and not overwhelming. Also, it does make my hair really soft, adds a bit of shine and moisturises my hair.
Vanja, Norway
This product does what it says on the tin. Protects hair from the harsh elements and makes it feel lovely and soft.
Melanie, East Anglia
Really does make your hair soft and gorgeous. Would definitely recommend.

Company executives, industry leaders and more on hand as Lincoln becomes one of the nation's first proprietary school networks to offer CNC career training.
WEST ORANGE, N.J., Oct. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Lincoln Educational Services Corporation (NASDAQ: LINC), a national leader in specialized technical training and a driving force in helping students turn their passion into professional success, celebrated the launch of its Computer Numerical Control (CNC) Machining and Manufacturing Technology program on Friday, October 4 at the Indianapolis, IN campus of Lincoln College of Technology. Lincoln executives were joined by industry partners, local employers, and students from local high schools to commemorate the launch and mark National Manufacturing Day 2013.

The event featured a ribbon-cutting ceremony, campus tours and machining demonstrations, and included the renaming of Lincoln's CNC Machining facility as the Hurco CNC Technology Center. Hurco Companies, Inc., a leading manufacturer of CNC equipment headquartered in Indianapolis, is providing the latest models of its machines for Lincoln's program.
"We are excited to unveil the Hurco CNC Technology Center, and for our students to have the opportunity to train on Hurco machines," says Lincoln's President and COO Scott Shaw. "Our CNC Machining program will prepare students to join a growing and desirable industry as entry-level CNC operators or set-up technicians in today's modern manufacturing facilities. Opportunities for trained CNC Machinists throughout Indiana are projected to increase 19% between 2010-2020*, making it one of the fastest-growing career fields in the state."
Among the guests in attendance was Brian Burton of the Indiana Manufacturers' Association. "It was an honor to have Mr. Burton and several other dignitaries with us today," says Todd Clark, Executive Director of Lincoln's Indianapolis campus. "We appreciate the support from the state of Indiana, the city of Indianapolis, the local Chamber of Commerce and its President and CEO Michael Huber, and our partners at Hurco. This will mean great things for the manufacturing industry and for our students-as many of them will have the opportunity to be considered for jobs with Hurco and its partners upon graduation."
Hurco's President Greg Volovic believes Lincoln can be a leading voice in changing the way manufacturing is viewed around the country. "Lincoln has the national reach to be an influential voice to educate the public about 21st century manufacturing in America, what it looks like, and why it is important," Volovic says. "Lincoln's commitment to applied education and their grasp on the role of technology in manufacturing helps create a quality program where students can attain the education they need in order to launch new careers in the manufacturing sector."
In addition to the day's ribbon-cutting ceremony, machining demonstrations and campus tours, attendees were also treated to a special guest appearance and autograph signing by Vinnie DiMartino, celebrated mechanic and machinist of Discovery Channel's "American Chopper" Series, and owner of DiMartino Motorsports.
Lincoln's first CNC Machining and Manufacturing Technology classes will start on November 21. The diploma program will prepare graduates to sit for Level 1 Certifications, which demonstrate mastery of machining materials, job planning and safety, MasterCAM software, and manufacturing processes such as CNC milling and turning.
Lincoln continues to seek out and establish new partnerships and programs around the country to bridge the skills gap between the abilities of the workforce and the needs of employers. The Indianapolis campus is a 185,000+ square foot facility that has been redesigned to include a 5,000-square foot CNC Machining and Manufacturing training area. The campus will offer certificate and diploma programs in CNC Machining and Manufacturing Technology, in addition to its current programs in Automotive, Diesel and Truck Technology, Collision Repair and Refinishing, and Electronics Systems Technology.
