There's a lot to be said for the clean, traditional look of a non-cutaway acoustic guitar. With our acoustic line we distill our guitars into their purest acoustic form: shapes and woods, without a cutaway or pickguard (though several pickguard options are offered at no extra charge), and with understated appointments. Standardizing the look across several series keeps the pricing consistent among gloss-finish models in the 5 through 8 Series, and between the satin-finish 3 and 4 Series. As a result, you can choose a guitar based on the right shape and wood combination, without the price variation that comes with different appointment packages. Choose from more than 30 6- and 12-string models, with the optional inclusion of our ES electronics on any model. Among the other distinctions: All Grand Concerts in the Acoustic 5 Series and higher feature slotted headstocks, and the Acoustic Koa Series comes with a premium appointment package.

Foundation Repair Methods for Dallas and Fort Worth Granite's proven foundation repair systems include:
Tunneling is commonly used by Granite Foundation Repair when the homeowner does not want interior pier installation to damage a floor covering such as marble or tile. The method is very effective. It enables the precise location and installation of piers without any interior disturbance. The tunnel is typically 3 x 3 feet with length necessary to reach interior pier locations. After the work the tunnel is backfilled with a suitable material. The steel pier, also called a steel piling is consistently the deepest driven pier providing the most foundation support.
In addition to piers, drainage correction systems including surface drains and French drains can also be provided to correct problem areas. Click here for extensive information on watering and drainage. Moving? See our Foundation Tips for buyers and sellers. To schedule a free evaluation or for telephone consultation call us now at 972-412-2171 or email us at email@example.com A closer look at foundation repair methods: Granite's foundation repair solutions are situation dependent, based upon the age and style of foundation and house as well as the soil conditions and goals of the property owner. Granite's steel pier provides the very best in long lasting foundation support with minimal impact on vegetation. Our robust steel pier is driven to solid rock or a hard load bearing strata at pressures of up to 6,000 PSI, and depths of as much as 80 feet. Time for foundation repair is typically 1 to 3 days. There are tens of thousands of steel pier installations in the Dallas Fort Worth area. The amount of repair time is dependent upon the depth to which the pier system must be driven. The depth to which the pier system penetrates to rock or rock-like strata is not normally limited by soil moisture or soil density.
Helical steel piers are another system used by Granite for house leveling. Bracket material is the same as for Granite's steel piers. The first shaft section has one or more helical plates. Each section of steel is augured into the ground using a rotary hydraulic drive system. Extensions of steel pipe are typically 60" long. Helical piers are typically driven to a pre-set load level to provide adequate depth to get below the zone of seasonal moisture variation. The rotary helical pier system's main advantage is that during installation no load is placed on the foundation, which makes it ideal for interior foundation repair. Helical piers will not normally achieve the depth of straight shaft pressed steel pilings. Pressed Concrete Pilings provide a fast, relatively clean solution when compared with drilled piers. The system consists of pressed concrete pilings topped with a pier cap, concrete spacer, and steel shims. The pressed concrete piling system requires a lot of lawn disruption when compared with steel piers. Typically, the hole required for this type of piling is twice that of a steel pier. The pre-cast 5000 PSI concrete pilings are mated with a steel bar. The pilings are hydraulically driven to refusal using an installation force of up to 5000 PSI. The exact force that can be attained is limited by the weight of the structures. Studies have shown that due to the soil mechanics of friction and compression, this system will attain a support strength of twice its installation force within one month after pier installation. The system consists of pressed concrete pilings topped with a pier cap, concrete or steel spacers, and shims. Pressed concrete pilings have been used to level tens of thousands of homes. Depth of the concrete piling system, and hence the ability to support the house, is dependent upon soil moisture and the extent of soil compression. When dry soil limits the depth, seasonal movement can occur and impact the stability of the foundation. Other processes used in foundation repairs: Drilled or Poured Concrete Piers: Holes are drilled to a depth of 9-12 feet below the surface, and then filled with reinforcing steel and concrete. The pier shown is commonly called a double 8, that is, twin 8 inch columns. Angular spacing of the two legs is typically 5-15 degrees. After allowing 4-7 days for the concrete to cure, the Poured concrete pier is topped with concrete spacers and shims as the house is leveled. This system may be used instead of steel piers when leveling the perimeter of pier and beam homes. The pier system used under the interior of a pier and beam home may be as simple as re-shimming existing posts or block and pad systems. Sometimes new poured concrete piers are installed on the surface of the ground. Steel shims are placed at the top of the pier to adjust the house level. Mud Jacking is commonly used to lift driveways and sidewalks and is less often used in concrete foundation repair. Mud jacking seldom provides satisfactory long term correction to foundation problems, since the process does not either reach down to the zone of seasonal soil stability or bedrock. In Dallas and Fort Worth, the seasonal zone of soil stability is normally considered to be at a depth of 10-12 feet below the surface. At this depth the soil moisture content remains relatively constant year around. Mud jacking does not address the foundation problems that arise from inadequate soil compaction. Most foundation companies will not provide a long term warranty for a foundation repair using mud jacking. Spread Footings were used in the past for slab foundation repairs and have been proven to be less than satisfactory. The footing is typically installed directly under the beam as a poured concrete slab measuring 3'x3'x3'. Practice has shown that since the footing is in the highly expansive 3-5 foot soil depth, it may contribute to foundation upheaval and further foundation problems. |

Good Morning, I'll go first in the Intoduction Forum
My name is BillA. Like many I started collecdting Lincoln cents in the mid 1950's. I tell people that I started collecting because my older brother did, and to be a properly annoying little brother I felt it was my duty. Since that time I branched out to all US "Presidential Protrait" series, assembling two sets of each coin, circulated as well as uncirculated. A lull in collecting for those child rearing years then I began to get back into my collections. I assembled a XF+ set of IHC's then started a date set of Large Cents.
Along the way I decided to focus on the copper coins I started with, and sold all the nickel through dollar sets. This allowed me to upgrade my Lincoln cent set, IHC's, and to complete a date set of Large Cents. I also began pursuing Two Cent pieces. Two of my two cent sets (circulation strike and proof) are ranked nicely in the NGC Registry. These are the only slabbed coins I own.
With my refocus on copper collecting I began to learn attribution and have spent many enjoyable hours thus engaged. I am a member of the EAC, ANA, MSNS, CWTS, Collectors Society, Numissociety.com, and am assisting in re-establishing a local coin club. Coin collecting allows me to participate in another hobby, that of photography. Here is one of my favorite token pictures.

The recently released first proposal from the UHSAA regarding another realignment has been made public by media outlets, and has some fans wondering what all the movement is about.
All four of the 5A regions are getting either a small facelift or a major overhaul, and some regions in 4A are getting new competition.
The biggest thing a lot of people in south Davis County are happy about is the proposed move to bring Viewmont High School back to Region 1, thereby placing the Davis/Viewmont rivalry back together.
The best thing about placing the Vikings with Davis, for fans, is it allows the rivalry to be relevant in more ways than one now. With both teams in the same region, there can't be any scheduling mishaps, non-region matchups, or any other type of conflict that could have put the rivalry on hold for an entire season.
While the two schools did meet in most sports last season, there were some difficulties among coaches to get each other scheduled for a non-region game in other sports. The rivals didn't play a baseball game in the spring, and a volleyball match wasn't on the docket this past Fall.
This is one of those local rivalries that changed a lot of people's attitudes when the two teams split regions last season. While the games were still relevant historically, with the two teams facing each other every single year with a lot of implications, it seemed to have carried less meaning this past season-plus.

Abstract: This paper is aimed at developing a geostatistical model to improve interpolated annual and monthly rainfall variation using remotely- sensed cold cloud duration (CCD) data as a background image. The data set consists of rainfall data from a network of 704 rain gauges in the Rufiji drainage basin in Tanzania. We found ordinary kriging to be a robust estimator due mainly to its inherent nature of including the non-stationary local mean during estimation. Parameter sensitivity analysis and examination of the residuals revealed that the parameter values of the variogram viz., the nugget effect, the range, sill value and maximum direction of continuity, as long as they are in acceptable ranges, and any different combination of these parameters, have low effect on model efficiency and accuracy. Rather, the use of remotely-sensed CCD data as a background image is found to improve the interpolation as compared to the estimation based on observed point rainfall data alone. The study revealed the improvement in terms of Nash–Sutcliffe model performance index (R2) by using CCD as external drift with kriging provided an R2 of 64.5% compared to the simple kriging and ordinary kriging, which performed with efficiency of 60.0% and 61.4%, respectively. For each case, parameter sensitivity analysis was conducted to investigate the effect of the change in the parameters on the model performance and the spatio-temporal interpolation results.

Common Problems while authoring in Reaper:
Make sure you name your track.
Place your notes in the right places.
- In the midi editor, click View -> Mode: Event List.
- With your cursor set at the beginning, right-click -> insert text event.
- Text = 'PART GUITAR', 'PART BASS', 'PART DRUMS', or 'PART VOCALS' and Type = Track Name. Click Ok.
Place expert notes in midi lanes 96-100. Hard, 84-88. Medium, 72-75. Easy, 60-62.
Well lately I've been rhyming and rhythming my way through charting music in Reaper. I thought I would inform others about what I encountered while the documentation and whatnot is still being worked on.
Song: Megadeth - Moto Psycho/Coming Home
Those are two Megadeth songs, which I conjoined in Reaper. If you have charted any custom songs in the past (FeedBack anyone?) you probably haven't had the advantage of a digital audio workstation like Reaper. This allowed me to append Coming Home's first cymbal/bass hit to the end of Moto Psycho's last measure before its fadeout, flawlessly.
Count-in: I used a conventional two half-notes, then four quarter notes in the beginning to get the 1---2---1-2-3-4 effect. Reaper seamlessly took my ride sample and with the bpm that I had set, made a satisfying count-in similar to what you find in Rock Band.
Syncing: Much, much, much better. I'll again compare it to FeedBack (dB), since it seems that's still the standard for most charters. In dB, you have a black line with Guitar Hero-style circular frets on top of that. You have to chart the note that starts in the middle of that line and in the center of the frets. However in Reaper, you time the chart by looking at nice, thin lines. And right at the beginning of that line, or midi note, is where the sound originates.
Previewing: For listening to the audio track, and basing notes from what you hear, Reaper lets you input your own playback rate, that can be, get this, less than .5! (girly scream!)
Drums: Since I don't yet have the free Rock Band plugins for Reaper, I am forced to memorize what midi lanes are what colors. This is mad easy though. I got the hang of it about one measure in. And again, the plugins will add the colors (source: creators.rockband.com video)
Events: Adding an event is about as easy as adding a note. Locate where you want to place an event on the midi track, switch to event list view. Presto.

NEW YORK (AP) — The latest chapter is about to unfold in a four-year-old copyright lawsuit over Google's ambitious book-scanning project.
Google Inc. and the publishers suing the company have until the end of Monday to come up with a new settlement. They have to address the Justice Department's antitrust objections to a previous agreement.
The case involves Google's plans to scan millions of books and make them searchable and available for purchase online. A proposed $125 million settlement would give Google digital rights to those works. But the government told a federal judge in New York that the agreement threatens to give Google the power to increase book prices and discourage competition.

Paul Thomas Anderson Movies
With his 1997 film
Boogie Nights
, then-27-year-old director
Paul Thomas Anderson
took his place on the list of Hollywood wunderkinds. A brash, ensemble-driven epic made as a tribute to the Los Angeles porn industry of the 1970s, the film was both an exploration of the industry and the '70s version of the American dream. Combining sharp humor, indelible poignancy, and painstaking detail,
Boogie Nights
was hailed by one critic as the first great film about the '70s to come out since the '70s. The wide acclaim surrounding it -- as well as Anderson's Best Screenplay Oscar nomination -- put Anderson at the forefront of young American filmmakers, establishing him as one of the most exciting talents to come along in years.
The son of voice actor
Ernie Anderson
, he was born in Studio City, California, on January 1, 1970. Growing up in the Valley, where the porn industry thrived during the '70s, Anderson became obsessed with porn movies at a young age. He had a greater fascination with the medium than he did with school; by all accounts a poor student, he was kicked out of the sixth grade for bad behavior. Always interested in becoming a filmmaker, Anderson made his first movie in high school, a 30-minute mockumentary entitled
Dirk Diggler
. Inspired by an article he had read on porn star John Holmes, Anderson's short -- about a porn star and his 13-inch penis -- would later become the inspiration for
Boogie Nights
After a brief stint as an English major at Emerson College and an even shorter stint at the New York University Film School, Anderson began his career as a production assistant on various TV movies, videos, and game shows in Los Angeles and New York. In 1992, he made Cigarettes & Coffee, a short with five vignettes set in a diner. After it was screened at the 1993 Sundance Festival, Hollywood came calling, and Anderson made his first full-length feature, Sydney -- retitled
Hard Eight
. Released in 1996, the making of the film -- a crime drama set in the world of gambling and prostitution -- proved disastrous for the director, who was fired by the film's production company and not allowed to release his own version of the movie until it had been selected for competition at Cannes.
Hard Eight
ultimately earned a fair number of positive notices, but went virtually unheard of by audiences.
During the troubling production of
Hard Eight
in 1995, Anderson began writing
Boogie Nights
as a way to retain a hold on his sanity. The great success that surrounded the film's release all but ensured that the writer/director would be spared the kind of problems that had marred his previous effort. The recipient of numerous honors, including three Oscar and two Golden Globe nominations,
Boogie Nights
was widely hailed as one of the best films of the year, if not the decade.
Anderson remained mum on what he would do next, but in 1999 he resurfaced with
. Like
Boogie Nights
, it was an ensemble film of epic length, and featured performances by such Anderson regulars as
Philip Seymour Hoffman
John C. Reilly
Philip Baker Hall
William H. Macy
, and
Julianne Moore
. Centered around themes of love, death, abandonment, and familial estrangement, it served up a lavish helping of the sort of sweeping narrative, visual flair, and off-kilter insight that Anderson had made his trademark. Critics responded in kind, once again praising Anderson's touch with actors, particularly his ability to evince a full-fledged supporting performance from the usually-plastic Tom Cruise. Though it turned up on a slew of 10-best lists and secured Oscar nods for Cruise, Aimee Mann's original song "Save Me", and Anderson's screenplay,
's three-hour-and-twenty-minute running time scared off audiences, and the film failed to break even
Boogie Nights
' $25 million tally.
Scaling back his worldview somewhat, Anderson spent part of the next year honing his comic skills in the most unlikely of places: on NBC's venerable sketch show Saturday Night Live. Tagging along for an episode that featured then-girlfriend Fiona Apple as musical guest, Anderson was tapped for his writing talents as well as for a couple of pre-filmed mock-documentary segments. The comedy bug took hold, and it wasn't long before the auteur would team up with SNL alum Adam Sandler for a high-concept, low-budget (by Sandler standards, at least) romantic comedy. An off-kilter fusion of '50s Technicolor musical, extortion thriller, and the real-life tale of one man's pudding compulsion, Punch-Drunk Love premiered at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival, nabbing its creator a tie for the Best Director prize (shared with the legendary South Korean filmmaker Im Kwon-Taek). Though its fall release in the States was accompanied by ecstatic reviews and careful marketing, Punch-Drunk failed to connect with audiences -- who were perhaps expecting a conventional Sandler comedy -- and petered out at the box office after a promising limited-release run.
Allegedly suffering from some burnout after the lack of response to Punch Drunk Love, Anderson took a job assisting one of his idols, Robert Altman, while he directed what would turn out to be his final film, A Prairie Home Companion. This process reinvigoratd him to some degree and Anderson returned to screens in 2007 with There Will Be Blood, a loose adaptation of Upton Sinclair's novel Oil. The story of an oilman (Daniel Day-Lewis) whose misanthropy and desire for success costs him his humanity opened to thunderous critical praise and was one of the two films to dominate the year end critics and industry awards. Anderson was cited for numerous writing and directing awards including Oscar nominations for each of those categories.
With the exception of welcoming his third child with significant other Maya Rudolph in 2011, Anderson kept a low-profile for a few years. However, rumors continued to swirl about his next project. Though there was talk of Robert Downey Jr. joining him for an adaptation of Thomas Pynchon's Inherent Vice, word came early in 2012 that The Master, a religious drama supposedly modeled in part on Scientology, would hit screens in October of that year starring his regular collaborator Philip Seymour Hoffman as a cult leader.

Paul Thomas Anderson's The Master stars Joaquin Phoenix as a psychologically damaged war veteran who finds himself working for Lancaster Dodd (Philip Seymour Hoffman), a charismatic figure building his own religion. As the alcoholic, self-destructive former soldier becomes more deeply involved with the leader of this cult-like organization, his natural instincts keep him from embracing his new position as strongly as others in the group would hope. The Master screened at the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

Writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson steps outside his contemporary world of dysfunctional Angelenos to explore a very different dysfunctional man -- an oil pioneer whose trailblazing spirit is equaled only by his murderous ambition. There Will Be Blood is Anderson's loose adaptation of the novel Oil! by Upton Sinclair, and it focuses its attentions on Daniel Plainview (Daniel Day-Lewis), a miner who happens upon black gold during a disastrous excavation that ends in a broken leg. Pulling himself up from the bowels of the earth, both literally and metaphorically, Plainview embarks on a systematic and steadfast approach to mastering the oil business. Using plain-spoken and straightforward language, Plainview launches a campaign to convince small-town property owners they should let him drill their land. Without him, they won't have the equipment to access the profit beneath their feet. He builds an empire this way -- and gradually becomes obsessed with the intrinsic value of power, growing increasingly irascible and paranoid in the process. Plainview meets his match in Eli Sunday (Paul Dano), a teenage preacher in the small California town of Little Boston, whose brother tipped Plainview off to the town's plentiful supply of untapped oil. To fully reap the benefits of the land, Plainview must suffer the opposing whims of this "prophet," whose legitimacy is questionable at best. And it's unclear if either man is prepared to pay the humiliating price the other wants to exact. There Will Be Blood features an anachronistic soundtrack by Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood, and it was shot in the same town where the James Dean epic Giant was filmed. ~ Derek Armstrong, Rovi

Add A Decade Under the Influence to top of Queue
In the late '60s, American culture experienced a period of change as the youth movement challenged conventional attitudes about politics, sex, drugs, and gender issues, while the advancement of the Vietnam War found many citizens questioning the actions and wisdom of their government for the first time. As American attitudes continued to evolve, so did the American film industry; as costly big-budget blockbusters nearly brought the major studios to the brink of collapse, smaller and more personal films such as Bonnie and Clyde, Easy Rider, and Five Easy Pieces demonstrated there was a ready audience for bold and challenging entertainment. As the '60s faded into the 1970s, American cinema moved into an exciting period of creativity and stylistic innovation, which led to such landmark films as The Godfather, MASH, The Last Picture Show, Shampoo, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Chinatown, and Taxi Driver, and new freedom for directors and screenwriters. Ironically, however, it was another pair of big-budget blockbusters directed by students of the new wave of filmmaking -- Jaws and Star Wars -- which brought the studios back to power and put an end to Hollywood's flirtation with offbeat creativity. A Decade Under the Influence is a documentary which explores the rise and fall of new American filmmaking in the 1970s, and features interviews with many of the key directors, screenwriters, and actors whose work typified the movement, including Francis Ford Coppola, Robert Altman, Martin Scorsese, Paul Schrader, Roger Corman, Dennis Hopper, Jon Voight, and Julie Christie. A Decade Under the Influence received its world premier at the 2003 Sundance Film Festival, and an expanded version of the film was later shown on the premium cable outlet The Independent Film Channel; the documentary was the final work of co-director Ted Demme, who died shortly before the film was completed. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Adam Sandler and Emily Watson star in Punch-Drunk Love, an odd romantic comedy from gifted young director Paul Thomas Anderson. Sandler plays Barry Egan, a shy sad-sack with a great deal of repressed anger that occasionally bursts forth in sudden violent outrages, who falls in love with Lena Leonard (Emily Watson), a co-worker of one of Barry's seven sisters. After calling a phone-sex line, Barry is extorted by bad-guy Dean Trumbell (Anderson regular Philip Seymour Hoffman), who eventually sends four goons to assault Barry and get the money. This film was screened in competition at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival, where Paul Thomas Anderson was named Best Director. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

Wadd: The Life & Times of John C. Holmes
Famous for his gargantuan anatomy, John Holmes led a bacchanalian high life surrounded by a bevy of beautiful porn starlets and a plethora of drugs. Veteran documentary director Cass Paley tells of the sordid and often bizarre rise and premature fall of Holmes, porn's most famous performer. Starting from his humble upbringing in the back woods of Ohio, the film chronicles Holmes' rise to fame from the notorious porn-noir
Johnny Wadd
series, to his 27 fan clubs and his reported $1500-a-day salary. Yet Paley is less interested in the sensational aspects of Holmes' debauched life than in exploring his character. Through interviews and clips from four of the most famous of his 2000 movies, a disturbing dark side emerges from his good old boy image. He had an abusive childhood, kept a wife secret from his porn colleagues for 20 years, pimped out his 15-year-old mistress for drug money, was questioned for his connection with a grisly mass murder, and eventually died of complications from AIDS. In the process, Paley paints a raucous portrait of the porn world during its '70s heyday. Wadd: The Life & Times of John C. Holmes was screened at the 1999 Toronto Film Festival and won the best documentary award at the 1999 South by Southwest Film Festival. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

Writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson followed his critical and commercial breakthrough Boogie Nights with this wildly ambitious story of lives intertwining on a single day in California's San Fernando Valley. Earl Partridge (Jason Robards), a successful producer of television game shows, left his wife when she contracted cancer to marry the younger and more beautiful Linda (Julianne Moore). Now, Earl has cancer himself, and Linda spends her day fetching medicines and trying to deal with the imminent death of her husband, whom she has only now come to love. Earl asks his nurse Phil (Philip Seymour Hoffman) to arrange a meeting with his estranged son, Frank Mackey (Tom Cruise), known for his self-help program "Seduce and Destroy," in which he preaches the importance of male sexual prowess; he cared for his mother after Earl left her, and he has no desire to see his father again. Earl's best-known show is hosted by Jimmy Gator (Philip Baker Hall), who also learns that he is dying. Jimmy's show pits bright adults against unusually smart kids; one of Jimmy's child contestants, Stanley (Jeremy Blackman), arrives late for a taping after being left stranded by his father Rick (Michael Bowen), who is supported by his more successful son. Meanwhile, Donnie Smith (William H. Macy), who was a champ on Jimmy's show as a child, is not having as much luck as an adult; he's just lost his job and needs to pay for some expensive dental work. Jimmy wants to reconcile with his estranged and emotionally fragile daughter Claudia (Melora Walters), who despises him and who will become involved with well-meaning police officer Jim Kurring (John C. Reilly), who has been desperately lonely since his divorce three years ago. Magnolia reunites much of the cast and crew of Boogie Nights and features eight original songs by singer/songwriter Aimee Mann and a musical score by Jon Brion. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

While set within the milieu of the Los Angeles adult film industry, Boogie Nights is less a film about pornography than the serio-comic story of a group of misfits, losers, and lost souls who are embraced by Jack Horner (Burt Reynolds), a director who makes "adult films, exotic motion pictures." In 1977, while hanging out at a disco, Jack spots Eddie (Mark Wahlberg), the new busboy at the club, and tells him he's convinced "there's something wonderful inside those jeans waiting to get out." Jack knows his business well and his expert eye has not betrayed him; Eddie is a pornographer's dream -- good looking, remarkably endowed, and willing and able to do as many takes as might be needed. The product of a woefully dysfunctional upbringing, Eddie is not terribly bright but is very ambitious and eager to prove he has a "special something" to share with the world. Eddie changes his name to Dirk Diggler and quickly becomes the biggest star in hardcore. Working alongside "Dirk" in Jack's films are Amber Waves (Julianne Moore), a porn actress who applies her misplaced maternal instincts to anyone who needs nurturing; Rollergirl (Heather Graham), a cheerful but blank-faced high school drop-out who never removes her roller skates; Reed Rothchild (John C. Reilly), a none-too-bright actor, aspiring magician, and failing songwriter; Buck (Don Cheadle), a black actor fascinated with cowboy iconography who wants to open a stereo shop; Scotty J (Philip Seymour Hoffman), a stocky and awkward soundman infatuated with Dirk; Little Bill (William H. Macy), Jack's assistant director, who has trouble dealing with his wife's brazen infidelity; and Colonel James (Robert Ridgely), Jack's backer, who has a weakness for young girls. In the brief, late-'70s moment when porn was chic and sex films seemed poised to break into the mainstream, Dirk becomes a star and Jack a respected name. But a few years later, drugs and pride have taken their toll on Dirk and many of his friends, while the advent of the VCR radically changes the adult movie business; Jack goes from being a "filmmaker" to manufacturing and wholesaling videocassettes, a wealthy but emotionally broken man. In his second film, wunderkind director Paul Thomas Anderson juggled a broad range of characters in a manner reminiscent of Robert Altman's ensemble films, making Boogie Nights a sad but funny story of a makeshift family of damaged people and what happens before and after their brief moment in the sun. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Before his commercial breakthrough with Boogie Nights (1997), writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson made this low-key drama. John (John C. Reilly), a half-bright loser stranded in Reno, is down to his last few bucks when Sydney (Phillip Baker Hall), taking pity on him, buys him breakfast and offers him a few tips on making money in the casinos. Two years later, John has become Sydney's partner, but his lack of common sense goes from problematic to dangerous when he falls in love with Clementine (Gwyneth Paltrow), a cocktail waitress who isn't above turning a few tricks when she needs to make money -- and isn't any brighter than John. Hall and Reilly, both first-rate character actors, are cast in rare leading roles, and Paltrow is cast strongly against type as a part-time prostitute with a serious lack of street smarts. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Facebook Inc.'s shares jumped Wednesday, posting its biggest one-day percentage gain since the social networking company went public in May.
Facebook /quotes/zigman/9962609/delayed/quotes/nls/fb FB +1.88% rose 7.7% to close at $20.93. The stock was still off 45% from its initial public offering price of $38. Read more about technology stocks.
Zuckerberg on Facebook's stock
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg gave his first interview since the IPO at TechCrunch Disrupt.
The rally was sparked by Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg's remarks Tuesday at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference in San Francisco, where he spoke optimistically about Facebook's ability to sell ads on mobile platforms.
Facebook's stock has taken a hit amid questions about its ability to compete in the mobile-ad market.
J.P. Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth maintained an overweight rating on Facebook saying: "We remain positive on Facebook as we expect advertising revenue to reaccelerate in the second half of 2012 and into 2013."
Still, some analysts were cautiously optimistic. Needham analyst Laura Martin kept a buy rating, but cut her price target to $25 from $40.
New problem: Motivating millionaires
While many Facebook employees stand to become millionaires after the IPO, the company has to find a way to keep them on staff.
• Facebook snaps up Lightbox staff
• Facebook market cap may top $100 billion
• 3 ways to play Facebook
• Extended coverage of the deal
"We continue to believe in the long-term option upside value of the Facebook global platform, especially for video and commerce applications, and the long-term economic upside associated with its 900 million users," she wrote.
But she also noted that Facebook, "with some of the smartest employees on planet Earth, has been slow to monetize consumers' rapid shift from desktop to mobile, compared with peers."
Evercore Partners Ken Sena also cut his price target to $23 from $34, writing in a note: "In spite of the stock's 50% slide since the IPO, we expect shares to remain volatile until U.S. traffic trends show signs of stability or more tangible signs of mobile progress become clear."
On Tuesday, Zuckerberg also said a Facebook team is working on a search platform, confirming speculation that the company plans to aggressively focus on that market in a direct challenge to rival Google Inc.
In a note, Jefferies analyst Brian Pitz said: "Overall, we see upside as Facebook users increasingly search for brands, places, and apps — inherently valuable commercially-oriented queries."
"But we won't get too excited until we hear more details, and we note the overlap with Google is low," he added. Shares of Google /quotes/zigman/93888/delayed/quotes/nls/goog GOOG +0.77% were trading down 1% at last check.

The public is invited to see Anita Moorjani speak about her near-death experience and cure from terminal cancer that astounded the medical profession around the world. This lecture by Mrs. Moorjani is part of a series of NDE presentations by the Tucson chapter of IANDS (International Association for Near Death Studies).
The presentation will take place at the Jewish Community Center in Tucson this Thursday, March 21 at 6:30 PM. The audience will be totally amazed to hear from someone that was in the final days of life in a condition hard to comprehend. After her Near-Death Experience she became completely cured and testifies that there is life after death.
In April 2002, Anita Moorjani was diagnosed with lymphoma and for four years struggled to fight the disease by exploring many potential cures. Some worked for a short while but eventually her organs started shutting down. After a few years at Stage 4b, her body stopped absorbing nutrients and her muscles wasted away until she could not walk and was wheel chair bound. Her head hung from her neck like an oversized bowling ball and she could not breathe without a portable oxygen tank that never left her side. Her husband stayed awake to make sure she did not stop breathing during the night.
During what was thought to be her final days alive she was rushed to the hospital. She had tumors the size of lemons throughout her lymphatic system from the base of her skull to below her abdomen. Her brain was filled with fluid as were her lungs. Her skin had developed lesions that were weeping with toxins. The doctors informed her family members that she would not be alive much longer after she dropped into a coma for over 30 hours. This is when she had her near-death experience that transformed her life forever.
When she came back to conscientiousness, she knew she would be healthy again. Within two weeks the doctors let her leave the hospital as she was totally cured with no evidence of cancer in her body. Medical professionals are astounded by this miraculous recovery.
Anita Moorjani was born in Singapore of Hindu parents from India, moved to Hong Kong at the age of two, and has lived in Hong Kong most of her life. As a result of her near-death experience, Anita speaks at conferences and events around the globe to share her insights. This is a unique opportunity for Tucsonans to hear of her amazing recovery and to hear the "why" she feels that she developed the cancer.
Her fascinating and moving near-death experience in early 2006 tremendously changed her perspective on life, and her work is now ingrained with the deep insights she gained while in the other realm. She shares much of her personal story and transformation in her bestselling book: Dying To Be Me: My Journey from Cancer, to Near Death, to True Healing.
This is a rare event for Tucson to have an opportunity to hear this extraordinary story from someone that faced death and experienced the knowledge there is life after death. Anita Moorjani will be available for book signings after the talk.
LOCATION: Jewish Community Center auditorium at 3800 E. River Rd.
DATE & TIME OF EVENT: Thursday, March 21,6:30 p.m. (Doors open at 5:30 p.m.)
ADMISSION: $5.00 – seats on a first come basis (come early).
For more info about the event:
This is an interview from the popular Dr. Wayne Dyer's blog. He is the person that brought Anita's story to the public for the first time.

Career Summary
After years working in the fashion industry and travelling Europe, North Africa and South America, I returned to Sydney to attend art school where I majored in fine art print-media. These studies included a stint at UCLA where I majored in drawing and performance studies.
Alongside regular exhibitions of my art I've educated at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney, held a regular arts program on Eastside Radio and spoken publicly on art (and other topics) for various outlets including ABC Radio, FBi and SBS News.

Research expertise
Jonathan is an early career researcher with a Masters in Visual Art from University of Sydney. Primary research involves visually expressing narratives gathered from personal, fabricated and public histories. The complexity examined in these artworks highlights theories of the neo-baroque, by writers such as Omar Calabrese.
A 2011 collaborative, inter disciplinary project between photo-media artist Jonathan James, Dr David Wills and wearables artist Dr Patricia Flanagan, was exhibited as part of WAM at Koo Ming Kown Gallery, Hong Kong. This project was intended as an example for students of the collaborative process and resulted with an artwork exploring the migratory artists context in new communities. The work engaged students, artists and the community, pedagogically, collaboratively and creatively.This has been followed in 2012 by a collaborative workshop, exhibition and conference at Hong Kong Baptist University titled Haptic Interface where Jonathan's work explored the links between old and new media.
"Print-media's response to Occupy Wall St" is the title of a paper delivered to "Art and Morality Conference" at University of Paris X - Nanterre. This paper explored contemporary print-media artists politicised but often unsophisticated responses to avant-garde politics. The outcome of this research questioned how this response might be one reason for prints tepid engagement in the contemporary art world despite its active engagement in community affairs. The research in this paper responded to ongoing research into print-media's historical role in fine art, contemporary art and current affairs.
In 2013 Jonathan will be delivering a series of lectures that explore the nexus of Art and Fashion at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney.

Creatively, I work artistically and commercially. My artworks attempt to visually link the complexity inherent in personal and public narratives through a range of mediums, primarily using photographic silk screen. Commercially I collaborate with Honi Ryan on fashion shoots, mining popular culture for a particular clothing label.
My theoretical research includes three areas. I look to theories around visual narratives in print-media. Recent papers have been delivered at Universite Paris X -Nanterre, on "Print-media's artistic response to the Occupy Wall St movement" and at Hong Kong Baptist University titled "Collaborations between old and new media." The second area of research revolves around the nexus between art and fashion. A series of lectures will be delivered at Sydney's Museum of Contemporary Art in May and June, 2013. The final area covers Print-media and requires keeping up to date information on the state of print-media in Australia and internationally.

'They didn't see a doctor here: Number one is the language, two is the transportation and three is it's too expensive,' said Amy Lee, nurse coordinator at the Pan Asian Volunteer Health Clinic in Silver Spring.
But all that's changed for the retired couple since the October opening of the clinic, which offers primary care, including physical exams and treatment for acute and chronic illness, to low-income, uninsured county residents. the clinic is open from 4 to 8 p.m. every Tuesday at the Dennis Avenue Health Center.
Although available to all residents, the clinic targets Asian Pacific American ethnics groups through such efforts as providing bilingual staff and information forms translated into Chinese. That means people such as Shu, 72, and Yu, 69, have a place to go where they can feel comfortable, said Lee, who translated for the couple during recent clinic visit.
For Yu, the "main thing is that everybody speaks the same language. The doctors see them in a way that they can express themselves," Lee said.
Overcoming the barriers of language and cost for low-income and uninsured Asian county residents was the driving force behind the clinic's creation. said Ling Cheung, its assistant director and a longtime advocate for Asian residents at the Chinese Culture and Community Service Center in Gaithersburg.
For years, Cheung said, she and others at the culture center have worked to educate Asian residents about county services that are available to them. Established in 1982, the nonprofit center provides activities and services for county residents and promotes understanding and appreciation of Chinese and Asian cultures. According to the 2000 Census, Montgomery County has about 99,000 Asian residents; they account for 11.3 percent of the county's population.
The clinic is a partnership of the culture center, which helps recruit volunteer doctors and clinic workers; the county department of Health and Human Services, which provides space and financial support; and Mobile Medical Care Inc. in Bethesda, which provides clinic management and referral services. MobileMed is a nonprofit organization that offers primary medical care to the low-income, uninsured, working poor and homeless through a network of 10 health clinics in the county,
"It's really a testimony to the goodwill of like-minded people to make if happen," said Robert L. Spector, executive director of MobileMed.
County Health Officer Ulder J.Tillman noted that the Pan Asian clinic is the latest step in the county's efforts to reach out "in a culturally sensitive manner to ethnic populations."
'I'm very enthusiastic that we have the launching of this clinic,' she said. 'We were pleased that a group wanted to address the health concerns of the Asian population.'
Although other health services are available to low income residents through the county and from organizations such as MobileMed, many Asians don't take advantage of them because of an inability to communicate, said Cheung and others.
Annie Chen, 41, of Silver spring can relate, Her mother, Mao Hua Wu, 65, was 'very excited' to hear about the clinic. She doesn't speak English and felt uncomfortable when visiting a doctor because she couldn't understand what was said.
'I have to be with her," Chen said. "Finally, there's someone to help her. She said, 'Oh my life is getting easier,' She is very happy."
The cost of health care also is an overriding issue for many of the people who visit the Pan Asian clinic. Clinic workers are trying hard to change traditional beliefs that one doesn't visit a doctor until very sick, which often means that the cure will be more expensive and take longer.
Samnang N. Wu, 50, who works as a county community service aide at the clinic, said she has seen a number of Asian residents who tell her that they can't afford medical care.
Recently, she said, a man who came to the clinic said he hadn't had the medicine that he needed for six months. "I said, 'Why don't you go see a doctor?' He said the doctor costs $100 or more. He had to think about food for his children first," said Wu, a native Cambodian.
"The clinic does not just save money, most importantly it saves lives. If people wait until they get very sick, sometimes they can't be saved in the emergency room," she said. "Number one, I want to get the message across that if you start to get sick, don't wait too long. Then the care will take longer, and that costs more."
The culmination of two years of planning, the clinic is based on a model established by MobileMed and its other clinics, which operate at facilities or in mobile vans through the county. Patients, who must show proof of residency and income, may pay from $20 to $60 for a visit, depending on income. No patients are denied service if they can't pay.
Clients are screened and treated for possible illnesses; many suffer from a such chronic conditions as hypertension, and diabetes, If necessary, patients are referred to area hospitals for lab tests, diagnostic radiology services of inpatient care.
In its first month, the Pan Asian clinic served 28 patients who were Chinese, Cambodian or Vietnamese. Currently, about 10 new patients are seen each week by a volunteer doctor, according to Yvonne Richards, 52, nurse administrator for the country's Tuberculosis Control, Refugee and Migrant Health Program.
Cheung is hoping to recruit more bilingual doctors so the clinic can accommodate more patients each week.
'We don't have enough doctors,' she said. 'If we can recruit more doctors, we can double the patients."
Spector, however, doesn't want to move too quickly to expand the clinic.
"We've deliberately chosen to grow the clinic slowly to make sure that we have our act together," he said. "We're forging new ground here, We want to make sure everything works."

Talk about trading places. Last month, Gil Na'amati finished his three-year stint of compulsory military service after serving in Israel's artillery corps and spending time operating in the West Bank. Now the 22-year-old kibbutznik is the poster boy for Palestinian grievances against Israel.
During a demonstration last week by Palestinians and Israeli left-wingers against Israel's West Bank security barrier, Na'amati was shot by soldiers, who until recently might have stood shoulder to shoulder with him at a checkpoint. An American activist also was lightly hurt in the clash.

Summer Totes from Young Artist-Designer
Filed under: Handbags
Francesca Joy's hand-painted canvas totes in megawatt primary colors are the must have this summer. Launched last February by artist Elise Francesca Fargnoli, the totes quickly became a cult item in Palm Beach. "My idea was to turn art into fashion," says Fargnoli. Her goal was to create a tote that looked bright and sunny, "something very original, but was also practical for the beach or the street." The bags are made in North Carolina and painted in the artist's studio in Pomfret, Connecticut. They are surprisingly practical and rugged. No worries if they catch a wave at the beach as the colors hold fast and don't chip.
It's not easy launching a new tote business that is for the most part "owned" by the big catalogs. As she had virtually no budget for PR, Fargnoli, who went to Pomfret and Mt. Holyoke, relied extensively on her "old boy" network which really came through for her. Next in her Francesca Joy ventures is a line of pillows and towels, more t-shirts, and of course, her signature summer season totes. Check out the website, www.francescajoypb.com for styles. You can place an order online at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 866-249-6768. Prices for the totes range from $80-$110.

Pima County partners achieve highest green rating on foreclosed home turned into duplex
Friday, November 30th, 2012Pima County's partnership with a local contractor and a nonprofit has created jobs and turned a vacant, foreclosed home into a duplex that achieved the "greenest" possible rating for energy and water efficiency – Emerald.
Two low-income families are moving in today.
"This is the only Emerald Certification awarded in the state of Arizona" for a renovation, said Shawn Andersen, project manager for the nonprofit Southern Arizona Land Trust (SALT).
With Andersen's project direction, the contractor converted the run-down house into a beautiful, safe and very energy-efficient home. "Everything in this house, from the roof to the foundation, has been constructed to save the resident money on their water and electric bills for many years to come," said Jerry Camp, the general contractor with JC Construction Inc. hired by SALT.
The property southeast of Valencia Road and South Sixth Avenue is one of dozens of vacant, foreclosed homes purchased and renovated for sale or rent through the Pima Neighborhood Investment Partnership (PNIP). Pima County received a $22 million Neighborhood Stabilization Program grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development in 2010 and is collaborating with the City of Tucson and seven local nonprofits to make foreclosed and vacant homes energy efficient, available and affordable in a target area generally south of 22nd Street.
SALT received $8 million and has purchased, renovated and rented over 52 homes to low-income families. The project has helped Camp keep his 15-year-old, family-owned construction business going through tough economic times.
"If it hadn't been for the grant money … I'd probably be running two or three guys," he said. "That's it. Now I've got 21 guys."
Camp is proud of his green building record. "I've got 42 Silvers, three Golds and an Emerald," he said about his housing rehabilitation work for the partnership and for the City.
He and Andersen worked closely with Amy Patze and Clayton Trevillyan in the County's and City's green building programs, respectively, to get the certificates.
The standards of the Regional Residential Green Building Program established by the City and County are comparable to the national LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) standards without the costly LEED fee for certification – a critical factor in affordable housing projects.
"People say that using Energy Star-rated materials, fixtures, bulbs, etc. increases the construction costs hundreds, even thousands, of dollars," Camp said. "It doesn't."
"There are many ways to find the required points to make the home energy efficient without spending an enormous amount of money," Andersen said. "Jerry and I have great model we have utilized on every one of our projects to maximize the energy efficiency while keeping construction costs to a minimum."
Turning the 2,400-square-foot, three-bedroom home with a grandmother's apartment into a duplex gave Andersen and Camp an opportunity to go for an Emerald Certificate because they had to completely gut all but the foundation slab, outside walls and roof. To create one 3-bedroom/2-bath unit and one 2-bedroom/1-bath unit, with a garage for each, they had to add 500 square feet, replumb the entire property to create two separate water and sewer systems, and rewire for all new electric to correct deficiencies and meet code.
The improvements that helped Andersen and Camp achieve the Emerald rating included:
- Replacing the home's swamp cooler with a heat pump for each unit.
- Increasing the insulation in the ceiling to R-30 and adding three layers of reflective roof coating.
- Water-efficient toilets, and sink and shower fixtures. "Many time people will only install new shower heads, for example," Camp said. "We actually go another step further and install new diverters. No matter what shower head you purchase and install, it's going to be "low flow."
- Installing ceramic tile floors instead of carpet.
- Double-pane windows with argon gas between the panes. "You can touch the window on the inside when it's 110 degrees outside and it's still the same temperature as it is in the house," Camp said.
- Energy-efficient light fixtures and ceiling fans. "The actual light fixture is low-wattage," Camp said. "You can use a 60 watt bulb, but it will still be energy efficient."
- Formaldehyde-free cabinets and paint free of volatile organic compounds.
- Drought-tolerant, low-water-use landscaping with rainwater retention and a high-efficiency irrigation system.
- All Energy Star-rated appliances.
Camp said his green building work for SALT and PNIP "has transformed how we work and think." He's hired an energy specialist to help achieve green building certifications, and together they're educating homeowners and construction workers about green technology. He started a nonprofit, Green & Healthy Homes Inc. (http://tucsongreenhealthyhomes.com), to raise funds to provide "a healthy living environment for low-income families, especially those with children and seniors."
Camp praises the Pima County One-Stop Career Center for helping him hire the local and lower-income workers the federal grant required.
"You know what's good about One-Stop?" Camp said, repeating his phone conversation with the center personnel. "'Hey, I need some guys.' 'How many do you need? What do you need?'
"You call them up. You send over your reference sheet. They set up a room and they set up all your appointments within a half hour. I sit in there at a desk and they bring them in. I mean wow! What an organization!"
Camp also hired "7, 8, 10 guys from the neighborhood."
"If they could do a couple more grants like this," he said, "I think they could really help the economy out a lot."

Activists: Syrian airstrikes kill 12 | |||||||||||||||||
BEIRUT (AP) -- Syrian government aircraft on Saturday pounded a rebel-held city in the country's northeast, killing at least 12 people including five children, activists said. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the air raids - seven strikes in total - hit the northeastern city of Raqqa early afternoon. Four women were among the dead and dozens of people were wounded, the Observatory said. Rebels captured Raqqa, the capital of the province of the same name, in March. It's the only major urban center to fall entirely under opposition control since the Syrian conflict began in March 2011. Rebels also control territory in the north and parts of Aleppo, Syria's largest city and its commercial center. President Bashar Assad's forces have relied heavily on air power in the last year to regain control of opposition-held territory, particularly in the north and along the border with Turkey. Last week, at least 50 people were reported killed in two helicopter attacks on a rebel-held town near Aleppo. Activists say airstrikes often precede government ground offensives. Assad's troops may be mounting a major operation to recapture territory and bolster its position ahead of peace talks planned for January in Geneva. Assad's control of Syria's skies is hampering rebels' efforts to hold on to territory they capture and administer it with any efficiency. Syrian conflict started as largely peaceful protests against Assad's rule. Over the past year, it turned into a full-fledged civil war in which at least 120,000 people have been killed, activists say. In western Syria, government troops backed by Hezbollah fighters were battling al-Qaida-linked rebels for control of a town located along the country's main north-south highway, according to the Observatory, which obtains its information from a network of activists on the ground. The road holds strategic value for both sides, and serves as a crucial link between the capital Damascus and northern Syria as well as government strongholds along the Mediterranean coast. The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons said this week it would consider using the highway to transport Syria's chemical weapons to the port of Latakia before they are taken out of the country for destruction. Saturday's clashes are concentrated around the town of Nabek. The section of the highway near the town has been closed for 18 days because of the heavy fighting, the Observatory said. © 2013 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

When I arrived, it had a sign outside saying it was full and closed. All lights off and no phone number to call. I had paid for my reservation. All other hotels in town were full, so I ended up sleeping on the street. Not cool. I would review their service and beds if I had had the opportunity to sleep that night. No thanks.

Navarre's balanced big-play offense outscored Pace's punishing but one-dimensional ground attack 28-19 Friday at Bennett C. Russell Stadium. The win was the host Raiders' first of 2013.
Navarre garnered more than 400 yards total offense evenly split between the run and pass. Alex Wattley and Derrick Smith had scoring runs of 63 and 62 yards, respectively, in the first quarter, and junior quarterback Matthew Webb threw a pair of touchdown passes, 13 yards to Dylan Main and 44 yards to senior wideout Gatlin Casey.

Question by : What are some pros and cons of buying my teenage girlfriend a sex toy?
My girlfriend has mentioned to me a few times that she would like me to get her a vibrator. My fear is that if i get her a vibrator will that in a way replace her 'drive' for my man parts? Please list pros and cons of me buying her this. Thanks! 10 Points to the person who lists the best realistic pros and cons
She is 15, masturbates regularly, and has borrowed bunny vibrators from other people.
Best answer:
Answer by Deacon
You get to watch
You get to help
if shes having trouble getting aroused for sex, you can use it to help put her in the mood
You have the satisfaction of knowing she isn't looking for another guy while your away
She secretly wants to use it on you
Women rarely replace a current bf with a toy unless they are uncaring in bed
If she not in the mood for full on sex, she might ask to let her use that instead of sex..even if you're ready to go
