Transformed into a vampire and entombed for 200 years after betraying vengeful witch Angelique Bouchard (Eva Green), 18th century fishing magnate Barnabas Collins (Johnny Depp) returns to Collinwood Manor in 1972, only to find his once proud estate in ruins and his family plagued by macabre secrets. It was the year 1752 when Barnabas' parents came to America to expand their business empire. But after establishing the thriving New England fishing town of Collinsport, the family experienced a series of misfortunes when Barnabas fell for the gorgeous Josette DuPres (Bella Heathcoate) and cast aside beautiful witch Angelique, who cursed him with eternal life and buried him deep in the earth. Returning home to Collinwood Manor after being dug up by a construction crew in 1972, Barnabas learns that Angelique has nearly driven his family out of business, and turned the townspeople against them. Determined matriarch Elizabeth Collins Stoddard (Michelle Pfeiffer) employs live-in psychiatrist Dr. Julia Hoffman (Helena Bonham Carter) and enchanting governess Victoria Winters (Heathcoate) to try and help young David Collins (Gully McGrath) get over the mysterious death of his beloved mother, but as Barnabas gets acquainted with his distant ancestors -- including Elizabeth's black-sheep brother Roger (Jonny Lee Miller) and headstrong teenage daughter Carolyn Stoddard (Chloe Moretz) -- their suffering weighs heavily on his shoulders. Later, when Angelique learns that Barnabas has returned on a mission to restore his family to its former glory and fallen for the radiant Victoria (who is actually Josette reincarnate), she vows to make his suffering unimaginable if he should dare refuse her once again. Jackie Earle Haley, Bella Heathcote, and Gulliver McGrath co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Writer/director John August ponders the metaphysical aspects of life and art in an episodic allegory that follows three artists as they embark on a soul searching journey of fate versus free will. When a troubled actor is placed under house arrest in "The Prisoner," his imagination begins to run wild due to the fact that his spirited publicist and cynical neighbor provide his only link to the outside world. Later, after the planes of reality fold in on themselves during the production of a Project Greenlight-style show which documents the filming of a popular sitcom in "Reality Television," "Knowing" follows a successful video game designer and his family as they become stranded in the middle of nowhere due to automotive issues. Ryan Reynolds, Hope Davis, and Melissa McCarthy star in a drama that peels back the layers of reality to ask whether or not mankind really has any control over his ultimate fate. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Director Tim Burton brings his unique vision and sensibility to Roald Dahl's classic children's story in this lavish screen interpretation. Willy Wonka (Johnny Depp) is the secretive and wildly imaginative man behind the world's most celebrated candy company, and while the Wonka factory is famously closed to visitors, the reclusive candy man decides to give five lucky children a chance to see the inside of his operation by placing "golden tickets" in five randomly selected chocolate bars. Charlie Bucket (Freddie Highmore), whose poor but loving family lives literally in the shadow of the Wonka factory, is lucky enough to obtain one of the tickets, and Charlie, escorted by his Grandpa Joe (David Kelly), is in for the ride of a lifetime as he tours the strange and remarkable world of Wonka with fellow winners, media-obsessed Mike Teavee (Jordan Fry), harsh and greedy Veruca Salt (Julia Winter), gluttonous Augustus Gloop (Philip Wiegratz), and ultra-competitive Violet Beauregarde (AnnaSophia Robb). Over the course of the day, some of the children will learn difficult lessons about themselves, and one will go on to become Wonka's new right hand. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory also stars Christopher Lee, James Fox, and Noah Taylor; the book was famously adapted to the screen before in 1971 under the title Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, with Gene Wilder as the eccentric candy tycoon. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Tim Burton returns to the dark but fanciful animated style of The Nightmare Before Christmas with this stop-motion black comedy. Victor (voice of Johnny Depp) lives in a small European village in the 19th century, where he is pledged to marry Victoria (voice of Emily Watson), a partnership arranged by their parents. The two only meet the day before their scheduled nuptials, and Victor performs disastrously in the wedding rehearsal. Later that evening, while he is walking through the woods and hopelessly practicing his vows, he puts Victoria's wedding band on what looks like a branch. Victor quickly discovers this was a big mistake; as it happens, he has put the ring on the skeletal finger of the enchanted Corpse Bride (voice of Helena Bonham Carter), who then whisks him off to a dark and mysterious netherworld where they are now married. Victor is frightened in the land of the dead, and even realizes that he has fallen in love with his true fiancée, Victoria, so he searches for a way back to his own world. Directed by Tim Burton in collaboration with animator Mike Johnson, Corpse Bride features a stellar voice cast, including Albert Finney, Christopher Lee, Richard E. Grant, Joanna Lumley, and Danny Elfman (who also composed the film's musical score). ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

For years, Brian Herzlinger has had a crush on a pretty girl. There's nothing so strange about that, or even that the girl in question is the famous actress Drew Barrymore. What is unusual is that Herzlinger decided to do something about it. Herzlinger was flat broke and out of work when he won 1,100 dollars on a game show, and decided it was time to make his dream come true -- and make a movie about it at the same time. Herzlinger and a friend bought a high-end video camera at an electronics store with a 30-day, "no questions asked" return policy, and with his 1,100-dollar bankroll, they set out to find a way to meet Drew Barrymore and have Brian take her out on a date before they ran out of cash and had to return the camera. My Date With Drew is the document of Herzlinger's struggle to live out a regular guy's dream. My Date With Drew won the Audience Award at the 2004 HBO Comedy Arts Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The three most glamorous and butt-kicking private detectives in the business are back and ready to take on bad guys in this sequel to the 2000 blockbuster screen adaptation of the once-popular television series. Dylan (Drew Barrymore), Natalie (Cameron Diaz), and Alex (Lucy Liu) are once again summoned to the office of their boss Charlie (voice of John Forsythe), where they're introduced to his new right-hand man Jimmy Bosley (Bernie Mac) and given their latest assignment. It seems a pair of rings have gone missing and need to be recovered, but this was no ordinary jewel heist -- the rings have been coded with special information that can be used to access a list of every person in the FBI's Witness Protection Program, and when a handful of protected informants are murdered, the Angels are brought in to help crack the case. As the women search for the culprits, they encounter Madison Lee (Demi Moore), one of Charlie's former agents who decided that the wrong side of the law pays better, and Seamus (Justin Theroux), who once dated Dylan and wants revenge for her decision to turn him over to the police. Luke Wilson and Matt LeBlanc return as (respectively) Natalie and Alex's love interests, as does Crispin Glover as the Thin Man; John Cleese, Robert Forster, and Eric Bogosian also appear in supporting roles. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

They're beautiful, they're brilliant, and they can kick your butt -- the most glamorous private eyes in the world are back in action in this big-screen adaptation of the popular '70s television series. Natalie (Cameron Diaz) is the smart but silly one, Dylan (Drew Barrymore) is the tough but fun-loving one, and Alex (Lucy Liu) is the classy but hard-as-nails one, and they work for a man named Charlie (voice of John Forsythe), who never meets his employees face to face. Along with their helper Bosley (Bill Murray), the Angels are sent into action when electronics genius Eric Knox (Sam Rockwell) is kidnapped, with the nefarious Roger Corwin (Tim Curry) as the prime suspect. But they soon learn even bigger danger is afoot -- the kidnappers have gotten their hands on Knox's latest invention, a system that can monitor voice communication from anywhere in the world, virtually ending the notion of private conversation. Charlie's Angels also stars Crispin Glover, Luke Wilson, Kelly Lynch, and Tom Green. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Director/cinematographer Doug Liman's third feature links together three edgy stories, all beginning in the same Los Angeles supermarket with an interconnected group of characters. Ronna (Sarah Polley) is a down-on-her-luck checkout girl who is sweet talked into taking an extra shift from her friend Simon (Desmond Askew) so he can go to Las Vegas. Ronna is then approached by two good-looking actors, Adam (Scott Wolf) and Zack (Jay Mohr), who want to buy drugs. Ronna, who needs money, plans to act as a go-between between the actors and a dealer friend of Simon's, Todd (Timothy Olyphant), until a cop named Burke (William Fichtner) enters the picture. Meanwhile, Simon is living it up in Vegas; in the course of a very wild night on the town, he manages to bed two women, accidentally steal a car with his good friend Marcus (Taye Diggs), and get thrown out of the best strip club in town, with more than a few people after him, especially when he leaves behind a credit card he borrowed from Todd. Once again back at the supermarket, Adam and Zack turn out to not be quite what they seemed, and their relationship with Burke and his wife Irene (Jane Krakowski) takes an unexpected turn as their evening becomes very, very complicated. Go, Liman's long-awaited follow-up to his indie hit Swingers, received its World Premiere at the 1999 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

text: Tips for Visiting Our average visit is 3-4 hours, but you can easily spend an entire day at the Zoo and still have more to see. Explore our interactive map. We have indoor and outdoor exhibits and are open all year long. It is a good idea to dress in layers as temperatures and wind conditions vary throughout the day as well as seasonally. On cooler days, you'll want a coat when visiting the Northern and Minnesota Trails. The animals are most active, and the crowds are smaller, early in the morning and later in the afternoon. Looking for some solitude? Fall and winter are less crowded than summer and spring, and the animals tend to be more curious about visitors when it is quiet and there are fewer people inside the buildings. School field trips are popular in April and May. If you're coming with a school group, plan your school's trip earlier in the year to avoid crowds. The Minnesota Zoo is a zoo for all seasons! Even when the weather is cold and nasty, the Tropics Trail and Discovery Bay are warm featuring animals from the Caribbean, South Pacific, and tropical rain forests. Don't forget your camera! Zoos are great for wildlife photography. Read our photo tips featuring advice that will help you take great pictures of your favorite animals and exhibits. Avoid ticket lines become a member and use the member only lanes for faster entry. Members lane open every day from Memorial Day - Labor Day. After Labor Day our members lane is only open on the week-ends. The Zoo is a great place to get exercise. Take your daily or weekly walk around the Zoo rather than around the block or the track at your gym. Keep an eye out for roving naturalists and volunteers, who are dressed in bright blue shirts. They often have "touch stations" and other things to look at and are always happy to share interesting information about the animals. Consider becoming a volunteer and share your own interest with others! Bring binoculars so you can see animals REALLY close up. For the safety of animals and guests, bare feet, bicycles, skateboards, rollerblades, and skates are not allowed inside the Zoo. Remember that all of the Zoo's animals are wild. Please don't feed any of the animals, or chase any of the naturally roaming animals. Check at the entrances when you arrive for announcements about new Zoo babies and other special events.

While the first "CheeriOats" were invented in 1941, the cereal in your bowl is actually part of a century-and-a-half tradition. Since 1856 the company now called General Mills has combined the best parts of nature and human innovation. Our mission is to nourish everyone by making lives healthier, easier and richer. General Mills is Nourishing Lives, Nourishing Communities, Nourishing the Future.
Our first mills were technological marvels, producing the finest flour of their day. Cheerios are also the product of inventive minds. It took months of trial and error to figure out how to "puff" the oats we used into a shape which, since then, has delivered good times and whole grain nutrition to lots of kids, adults and families. While the decision to use traditional ingredients could be called wisdom, today it's backed up by science. New revelations about the benefits of whole grain come up all time, and Cheerios.com is specially built to make them available in answers to your common questions. We keep making good stuff.

The Gas Grill Gourmet
by A. Cort Sinnes, with John Puscheck
It was great to find a barbecue cookbook that focuses on gas grills so you don't have to translate cooking times and temperatures from a charcoal grill recipe. The recipes are grouped by category (appetizers, type of meat, vegetables and vegetarian, side dishes, fruit and desserts) and each recipe has a little introduction. They are pretty simple, but there are no photos which is too bad. But the most important thing about a cookbook is whether the recipes are good and these are great! Some of our favorites are the salad Nicoise, skewered herbed potatoes, grilled fresh pineapple, and London broil with black bean and corn salsa. The book also includes information on grill safety, equipment and supplies, and how to use various types of wood chips to enhance your cooking.

The Wednesday Sisters: A Novel
by Meg Waite Clayton
Five women, wives of engineers, doctors and scientists who have relocated to California to further their careers, meet in the summer of 1968 at a Palo Alto children's playground. They start a reading group which soon changes to a writer's circle. Over the next 5 years marked by now-historical events such as moon landings and Miss America pageants, the women struggle to become published authors, all the time facing more mundane challenges of motherhood, marriage, cancer and career changes. For women who lived through the social upheavals of the 1960's and the early 1970's, this book will bring back memories; for those who came later, it will prompt discussion on issues now taken for granted, such as interracial marriage and women's participation in amateur sports.

Be Near Me : a Novel
by Andrew O'Hagan
Father David Anderton has lived an insulated life, sheltered from conflict and his own strongest feelings. An Oxford graduate, an intellectual and something of a connoisseur of wine and food, his life begins to change abruptly after he is sent to a poor working-class parish in Scotland. Here he encounters the rampant hostility of the locals. The loneliness of his life is tempered by his friendship with his housekeeper Mrs. Poole, blunt, loyal, and hungry for a taste of culture. He is also drawn to two wildly impulsive adolescents, who live in defiance of all order and authority. This attraction has grave consequences for the priest, but leads to the beginnings of self-knowledge and an opening to the world. This is a beautifully written and compelling novel.

Tomato Rhapsody : a Fable of Love, Lust and Forbidden Fruit
by Adam Schell
This extraordinary book could change your perception of tomatoes forever. Set in early 16th century Tuscany with the arrival of tomatoes to Italy from the New World, Tomato Rhapsody is indeed a fable, written in the form of a theatrical comedy which borders on bawdy farce. The many intriguing characters engage in lively dialogue and sometimes absurd activities amidst highly descriptive settings. The author puts a highly imaginative spin on both Italian history and culinary delights. This reader laughed out loud at least once every chapter and hopes that a film by the same title will be produced soon!

The Red Queen : a Transcultural Tragicomedy
by Margaret Drabble
Fascinating and mysterious 18th century Lady Hyegyong, lived as her status required, confined in women's apartments behind thick palace walls from the time of her marriage at age 10 to a Korean Crown Prince until her death at 80. But do not expect an neatly embroidered history based on her actual memoirs; listen instead to the Red Queen's ghost voice describing the strange and tragic events that transformed her life, as she reexamines them from the perspective of 200 years of intellectual exploration and questioning. In the second half of the novel we are introduced to Dr. Barbara Halliwell, puzzling over the anonymous gift of a translation of the original memoirs, received as she is preparing for a flight from Heathrow to Seoul, where she will present a research paper at a professional conference. Upon her arrival a comic confusion of luggage brings Barbara into contact with Dr. Oo, who is familiar with the princess' history, while her increasing desire to know more about the Red Queen attracts the interest of the conference's star attendee, Jan van Jost. From this point the two stories, one ancient, one modern, are deftly woven together around themes of beloved children, physical or spiritual entombment, survival after tragedy, immortality, an occurrence of magpies and the persistent longing for a article of red clothing.

Muqtada : Muqtada al-Sadr, the Shia revival, and the struggle for Iraq
by Cockburn, Patrick
Muqtada is a summary of the Shia's modern history and conflict in Iraq as is rooted with a mystery figure, a maverick, and a firebrand young cleric Muqtada Al-Sadar. Patrick Cockburn compiles an account of the Shia modern politics, religion, nationalism, and their conflict in Iraq. The author had a firsthand experience in the modern Iraqi political conflict including Saddam's brutality, the Shia suffering, and the destruction of Iraqi infrastructure. Mr. Cockburn's book is a collaboration of valuable interviews and direct contact with many Iraqi figures including Shia, Sunni, and Iraqi officials.
The book is not just a biography of Muqtada Al-Sadar, but details of his family's history and the Sadirist movement including the feud of Shia's leadership and their struggle with the Iraqi government and Baath party. Muqtada blended the Shia's cause with violence, assassinations, and anarchy. The young cleric seized the momentum to conquer by combining his family's name, assembling the poor with religious rhetoric and nationalism. He became a ruthless militiaman, but he successfully identified himself with the Mahdi army and his movement. Nevertheless, his rivals were many, al-Khoie, Sistani, & al-Hakim including the Sunni, and the middle class. Many saw him as a dangerous figure leading a mob of thieves and robbers and created bitter rivalries, a controversial figure, but a popular among the poor Shia fanatics.

The Ghost Brigades
by John Scalzi
A sequel to The Old Man's War followed by The Last Colony, The Ghost Brigades is a stand-alone book at the same time. In The Old Man's War the main character is an old man who received a new enhanced body that in combination with his wisdom and experience made him a great recruiter for Colonial Defense Forces (CDF). The Ghost Brigades is focused on a different type of soldiers that are created from the DNA of recruiters who died from natural causes. They are called Special Forces (or Ghost Brigades) and their minds are completely blank without consciousnesses of the DNA of former owners. They are adults without childhood and have to be trained in a special computerized way. Ghost Brigades troopers are used in the most difficult and cruel battles with aliens forces.
The book is easy to read and utterly optimistic. It goes beyond just military science fiction content by exploring some moral aspects of honesty and betrayal as well as organ harvesting practices, which help to extend mortal lives of living people nowadays. It is full of adventure and action.

My Lobotomy
by Howard Dully with Charles Fleming
In 1960 at age 12, Howard Dully became the youngest patient of Dr. Walter Freeman to receive a transorbital – or "ice pick" – lobotomy. What happens to Dully after the surgery is a life of skipping around to various foster families, halfway houses, juvenile hall, and even an insane asylum. Forty years after the lobotomy, as his father is living his final days, Dully decides he needs to know why this happened to him. What was the lobotomy for? Why did his family abandon him after the surgery? How much of an impact did this procedure have on the rest of his life? With the help of journalist Charles Fleming, Dully begins to look back at his life and investigate his family's history as well as the history of Dr. Walter Freeman, an unlicensed surgeon that may have performed as many as 40,000 lobotomies during his career.
Dully's story is shocking and inspiring. He takes the reader through his extremely dysfunctional childhood and an abusive stepmother who was the one that approved of the surgery. Dully and Fleming do an excellent job of weaving Dully's story with transcripts and letters from family and doctors as well as the story of Dr. Freeman's career. The last chapters of the story talk about Dully's adulthood and how he has been able to work through all of his struggles. My Lobotomy is the tragic story of an optimistic and brave person.

Zen and Now : on the Trail of Robert Pirsig and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance
by Mark Richardson
In 1968, Robert Pirsig and his son rode a motorcycle from Minneapolis to San Francisco in 12 days. Later, he wrote the groundbreaking Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance about their trip. Upon publication, it quickly became one of the important American books of the 20th century. In 2004, as a Zen pilgrim, Mark Richardson rode a motorcycle along the same route. He wrote this book, published in 2008 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Pirsig's original trip. There are 2 trips described in the book. The first trip involves the journey of the author and his attempts to be faithful to Pirsig's trip. The 2nd trip, interwoven with the first, is a biographical description of Pirsig's life and family before, during and after his trip. So, if you want to learn something about the man, his background, and his difficult personality that wasn't in the first book, then this is a good place to begin. In the Afterword, there are a few web links for more information. The book also contains a map of the trip which can be copied and folded into a copy of Zen and the Art, for the next time you read the book.

Promises I Made My Mother
by Sam Haskell
Sometimes, you may find it easier to listen to someone else's mother than your own. For one, you can always ignore her, and for another, her counsel may be worth your while. After all, see how her son, Sam Haskell, turned out. Sam Haskell may not be a household name, but his clientele needs no introduction – Ray Romano, Prince Edward of the U.K., Dolly Parton and many more. But this book is not about them (even though they get honorary mention). It is about the indelible imprint Sam's mother left on his life; and how he has kept faith with her. Sam Haskell grew up in Amory, Mississippi (pop. 7,000) and made his name in Beverley Hills, CA. He started in the mailroom and ended up as the Worldwide Head of Television at the renowned William Morris Agency. He credits his rise to the wisdom of his mother which he shares entertainingly with his readers in Promises I Made My Mother. This inspirational memoir has a bit of everything in it – small town intrigue, cosmopolitan machinations, human frailties, struggles, joys, sadness, drama. Peppered with sagacity and interesting anecdotes, mellifluously melding society column with words to live by, it is delightful reading that packs a powerful punch.

In addition, there are emotional parts in the book, including scenes of killing and death that are unforgettable. The Forever War is a reflection of war memories, democracy, justice, and equal rights for the people of Afghanistan and Iraq. It's the world of wars and the real story of brave American men and women.

The Vikings: A History
by Robert Ferguson
After reading this book, you'll know more about such famous (or infamous) Vikings, as Harald Bluetooth, Ragnar Hairy-Breeches and Ivar the Boneless. However, one thing that you won't know is exactly why the Vikings left their homeland in 793, to attack the monastery at Lindisfarne, in northern England, where they murdered defenseless monks, dug up the altars, and seized the treasures of the holy church. For the next three hundred years, more or less, the Vikings continued to plunder, torture, and carry into slavery, the terrified inhabitants of Britain and much of Europe. Robert Ferguson uses his knowledge and familiarity with the literary culture of Scandinavia, along with the latest archaeological discoveries and the evidence provided by picture stones, runes, ships and other objects scattered over northern Europe, to provide us with a modern portrait of the Viking age.

Students can choose to study to become music teachers in primary schools (G–student) or music ensemble and instrumental teachers (IE student). The IE-teacher is a part of the teacher training program for instrumentalists and singers. There are six different programs for IE-students, arranging/composition, classical music, pop/rock music, jazz music, folk music and eurhytmics. The IE-program is designed for students who desire to become music teachers in music schools, culture schools, gymnasium and folkhögskolor and other music schools outside the primary school.
The goal of the program is to provide students with the competency and skills necessary to teach music at the primary or secondary school level or within any other type of musical program. The Academy emphasizes the development of each student's individual skills and talents by utilizing his or her special abilities. In general, the Malmö Academy of Music strives to provide its students with the tools needed to succeed as a music teacher. The program is a complete teacher's education. That is why teaching skills and practical teaching experience are an integrated part of the program during the 4.5 years of study.
Students participate in determining both the course of study and curriculum. Besides the mandatory courses, students may choose between a wide variety of elective courses to suit their individual needs and preferences. The program has three main subject areas: music studies (i.e. ensemble playing, main instrument, theory, ear-training, music history,), teaching methodology, and practical teaching experience.
A number of distinguished guest teachers from many different countries are a central part of the studies at the Academy. Each year, students and faculty together determine the guest teacher who will participate in the program.
Students have a great amount of flexibility to determine their particular field of specialization.
All music students take their basic classes together, i.e. rock, pop, jazz, classical and folk music students take the same conducting, choir and music history classes. Each program has its own specialized course of study.
Classes within the program are given in a variety of forms such as private lessons, group lessons, seminars, lecturers, projects, thematic studies and individual study.
The program requires attendance and active participation in all courses. Different methods of examination are used for different courses. Each course is graded on a pass/fail basis. Students must pass all courses to complete the program. Any student who fails a course may appeal the teacher's decision.
Every term has courses in ensemble, main instrument, and different practical teaching elements – starting with the teaching of children then on up to adults and from individuals to groups.
See separate curriculum sheet for more details
Students seeking admission to the program must display a high level of technical instrumental or singing proficiency. Applicants must also be demonstrate the ability to:
• play a piece of music on the piano, guitar or accordion;
• sing a song (you may choose to be accompanied);
• sing a song accompanying yourself on your primary accompaniment instrument;
• sing and sight read sheet music;
• display your musical knowledge and proficiency in 3 different activities of your own choice;
• arrange music by composing a harmony and bass line to a selected melody, compose a melody to selected lyrics or complete a melody line;
• transcribe music played from a CD;
• apply music theory.
The program grants students a teaching degree after 4.5 years of full-time study.
270 ECTS are required for graduation.

Not that you would do any of these, but you can relate them to the Three Stooges: they're funny, fun, and always put smiles to your faces; but when you think about them, the first thought is, "Wow, really?"
Cover of The Three Stooges
These are three tax breaks that you might consider but not always go for –
Tax Break 1
Charitable Donations
It's hard to understand why you actually get a tax break just from donating stuff, but you do. Anything with value that you own — be it a car, stereo, even a house — can be deducted from your taxes if you donate it to an individual or company. The question is this — do you want to do that?
Tax Break 2
Buy a House
It's amazing to know that owning a house actually benefits your taxes — simply because owning a house stimulates the economy, particularly the housing industry. However, it's such a big responsibility to own a house — why not rent? So much simpler!
Tax Break 3
Adopt a Child
That may be the most outrageous one…. The situation, of course, has to be right for you! Not everyone wants a child in that manner, but if you happen to want a tax break and a child at the same time, maybe you'd consider adoption, thanks to the adoption tax credit.
Pretty Outrageous?
We think so. But that's America for you: the Land of "Outrageous Opportunity." A land where you can basically get money from nothing!

I disagree with RGB's equation rsh + anything = (difficulty)^2 I found that once kerberos is set up, using kerberized rsh is essentially invisible, therefore rsh + kerberos = difficulty which is a first-order relationship. If anything, setting up rsh is the most difficult one. Why? Since rsh is so insecure, the distro producers/vendors have created many hurdle you must hop to get it working (correct file and owner permissions, etc.) Ironic. - -- Prentice Bisbal Linux Software Support Specialist/System Administrator School of Natural Sciences Institute for Advanced Study Princeton, NJ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHtgoh2n4m8G8ypgARApKbAKDTM4dDBTbEsPGZ96ATimhh93akEACgqhfW XKuset0dI1xR9rAq3OY38fM= =KQGF -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

JGC, I don't see how this affects Howard, honestly.
Well, I wasn't suggesting that the signing of Hill affects Howard per se. What I was pondering was whether this signing of hill, is any indication of the FO's strategy regarding Howard. And for the record, I'm not saying it is THE evidence indicating their direction, but, just exhibit A perhaps.
Howard has, and can, played 38 minutes per game. Does it really make sense to sign a backup big to the tune of $4M per who will rarely make it on to the floor?
It's possible this signing is an indication of one of two things:
1) Their off the D12 train now, want to reduce Drew's minutes, and need to sign a capable backup player who can fill in minutes at center. A capable backup center is going to cost you so it's not something you invest in if your starting center is going to eat up all the playing time.
2) They're hedging their bets. PIck up Hill on a desirable contract. If we end up getting D12, Hill could be moved down the road as his contract is desirable. If D12 doesn't happen, you have the luxury of maximizing Drew's impact during the time he is on the court and keeping him fresh for the playoffs because you know have a capable backup big.
Let's say we had already acquired D12 for Drew. Do you think we still would have committed to Hill on this contract? Because I think if we already had D12, we would have just rostered Sacre or tried to find a vet min type player to back him up.

A federal report shows public high school graduation rates continue to improve as dropout rates decline in New York.
The U.S. Department of Education says there were 183,826 graduates in 2009-2010, an estimated 76-percent of the freshmen enrolled four years earlier. The rates were 87-percent for white students, 62 for African-Americans, 61 for Hispanics, 92 for Asians and 60 for Native Americans.
The statistics released Tuesday show the overall rate has improved steadily from 61-percent in 2002-2003.
The graduation rate was 78-percent nationally.
New York's dropout rate was 3.6-percent, compared to 3.4-percent nationally. The rate among white students was 1.7-percent, 6.5-percent for African-Americans, 5.4 for Hispanics, 2.4-for Asians and 5.6-for Native Americans.
The overall rate was 5.5-percent in 2002-2003.

BKE Stella Skinny Stretch Jean 2 2
Cute cute I really like these jeans, and they have held up well through washings. They stretch a bit...So maybe purchase a size smaller?Slightly low-waisted, but I find myself liking low waists as I have a small butt and hate things that are too high. Probably my favorite jeans I own.I have had some issues with stitching coming apart near the crotch...slightly annoying. February 18, 2013
Cute, good quality, but run big for Stellas Very cute, good quality. The color seems slightly darker in person than it does in picture. I have numerous pairs of Stellas all in the same size, but this particular pair runs a little big, and I was able to easily size down one size and they fit perfectly. January 14, 2013

A Romanian friend once told me that when the Red Army began overrunning Romania, whole villages of ethnic Germans committed suicide. My first reaction was, Wow, a whole village committing suicide. But then I asked him if maybe they were killed by the Red army or deported. He sort of looked at me with a blank stare, like that possibility never crossed his mind. He then said, no, its documented that they all committed suicide. I thought about asking him who and how did they document that, but I just dropped it. I just said that's amazing.
No matter, I somehow doubt there will be any international pressure to get to the truth about the killing or displacement of ethnic Germans.


text: Cryo-techniques and storageThe possibilities to store genetic material over very long periods through application of cryo-techniques and very low temperature storage represent extraordinarily valuable contribution to conservation and use of farm animal genetic resources. The techniques used for deep-freezing semen were developed around 1950 and rapidly became standard, playing a major role in the artificial insemination of cattle. The technique Artificial insemination using deep frozen semen represents by far the predominant method for breeding cattle, and is also used for sheep and increasing numbers of horses and other species. Deep freezing embryos was made possible by employing an improved technique during the 1980ŌĆÖs, when embryo transfer was also developed to become a routine method for breeding various domestic species, especially cattle. The technique used to deep-freeze genetic material and maintain good fertility is constantly being improved. Differences still exist among species regarding successful outcomes, but for many species [cattle, sheep, pig, goat, horse, poultry, rabbit, dog and fish (at least some species)] the techniques have become routine. Storing somatic cells represents an alternative technique, but has yet to be sufficiently developed so that it could serve as a secure basis to regenerate a breed in the same way that semen and embryos can be stored and used. This technique has tremendous potential however as evidenced by the results obtained with the sheep ŌĆśDollyŌĆÖ and additional subsequent examples. A further advantage of cryo-techniques is that semen can be sexed and sex determination of embryos is also possible. This can be of great importance in conservation efforts. Nordic use Cryo-conservation represents an active component in the conservation measures in all Nordic countries. In the case of cattle, it has been in operation almost since the technique was developed, commercial breeding organizations having stored semen doses long-term for all bulls used in breeding programmes. In addition to the security represented by a genebank, cryo-conservation provides a large, high quality biobank for research purposes. Different programmes also operate where semen is collected from a number of bulls of endangered breeds for use in breeding. Security/costs As a component of gene banking, cryo-stored material is often irreplaceable, requiring that storage is thoroughly secure. Because of this, many countries have chosen to split the physical storage (nitrogen containers and contents) between two or more locations to ensure that the genetic material is not lost even in the event of unexpected catastrophic events. Cryo-storage of genetic material is expensive and funds are often limited. In the Nordic countries the commercial breeding organizations take responsibility for most semen storage for the principal breeds and also usually fund activities concerning collection, deep freezing and storing genetic material of threatened breeds.

These are perfect for my 7 year old who loves to dress in style and still be comfortable. She loves the sparkling glitter and because the glitter is multi-colored, she can wear these high tops with just about any shirt she has. I would definitely recommend this to a friend.

54 miles NE of Orlando; 251 miles N of Miami; 78 miles S of Jacksonville
Daytona Beach is a town with many personalities. It is at once the self-proclaimed "World's Most Famous Beach" and "World Center of Racing," a mecca for
tattooed motorcyclists and pierced Spring Breakers (though it lost its Spring Break crown to Panama City Beach), and the home of a surprisingly good
art museum. Though the city and developers spent millions to turn the beachfront area (complete with the requisite T-shirt and souvenir shops) around the
famous Main Street Pier into Ocean Walk Village, a redevelopment area of shops, entertainment, and resort facilities, there's still something bleak about
Daytona's famous strip. Many of its '70s-style beachfront condos and hotels are badly in need of a face-lift. Thank goodness for Ponce Inlet, a scenic
fishing village that has seemingly remained impervious to development.
Racing fans, however, don't care what the place looks like. Daytona Beach has been a destination for them since the early 1900s, when "horseless
carriages" raced on the hard-packed sand beach. One thing is for sure: Daytonans still love their cars. Recent debate over the environmental impact of
unrestricted driving on the beach caused an uproar from citizens who couldn't imagine it any other way. As it worked out, they can still drive on the sand,
but not everywhere, and especially not in areas where sea turtles are nesting.
Today, hundreds of thousands of race enthusiasts come to the home of the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) for the Daytona
500, the Pepsi 400, and other races throughout the year.
Be sure to check the "Calendar of Events" to know when the town belongs to college students on Spring Break, thousands of leather-clad motorcycle buffs
during Bike Week (Mar) and Biketoberfest (Oct), or racing enthusiasts for big competitions. You won't be able to find a hotel room, drive the highways, or
enjoy a peaceful vacation when they're in town.
Now that you've learned more about this great destination with insights from Frommer's, you're ready to plan your own trip! With American Airlines flights and travel information, it's easy to do. In addition to helping you find the perfect flight, we're happy to help you learn more about things to do before you depart.

Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation in Bexley
Places in Bexley which are valuable for wildlife have been identified as Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINCs).
These sites have been identified following Government guidance on local wildlife sites, published by the Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (follow the link to the right). More detailed guidance on procedures for the identification of SINCs in London has been published by the Mayor of London. The latest version of this regional guidance can be found by following the link on the right.
SINCs are graded according to their importance. The top tier, Sites of Metropolitan Importance, are of value on a London-wide scale. Below these are Sites of Borough Importance (sub-divided into Grades 1 and 2) and Sites of Local Importance.
These sites receive protection from harmful development through policies in the London Plan and Bexley's UDP and Local Development Framework. A list of SINCs in Bexley, along with maps and site descriptions, can be found in the four PDF files on the right.

Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC) will deliver the Weekly Republican Address on Saturday, December 7, 2013. She will talk about the House's ongoing focus on jobs and securing fairness for all Americans hurting from the president's fundamentally-flawed health care law.
"Today's report includes positive signs that should discourage calls for more emergency government 'stimulus.' Instead, what our economy needs is more pro-growth solutions that get government out of the way."

Scientists may have hit upon a new means of predicting solar flares more than a day in advance, which hinges on a hypothesis dating back to 2006 that solar activity affects the rate of decay of radioactive materials on Earth. http://www.gizmag.com/radioactive-solar ... tem/23702/
I saw this in the news, thought it posed an interesting quandary, if proven to be true. Aren't our atomic clocks designed around rate of decay? How would this revelation change our need for accurate time? GPS? Scientific experiments based on that time?
