John Duigan Movies
John Duigan
first attracted attention with such low-budget films as
The Trespassers
(1976) and
Mouth to Mouth
(1978), which he also wrote and directed. These films were centered in Duigan's adopted homeland of Australia, but their theme of youthful alienation and confusion struck a universal chord. Duigan's
The Year My Voice Broke
(1988) is perhaps the best of his many explorations of the painful coming-of-age process; its sequel, the 1991
was similarly effective in its portrayal of disaffected teens in love.
Duigan also varied his subject matter with
(1989), a heartfelt but objective biography of controversial Salvadorian clergyman Oscar Romero, and
Wide Sargasso Sea
(1992), an adaptation of Jean Rhys' tale of madness and seduction. In 1994, Duigan won acclaim for
, a likably erotic story of artistic expression in the Australian Outback of the 1920s starring
Hugh Grant
Sam Neill
. After finding further critical--if not commercial--approval with films like
The Journey of August King
(1995) and
Lawn Dogs
(1997), Duigan reappeared in 1999 with
, the story of an autistic woman (
Elisabeth Shue
) who is revealed to be a genius following surgery to cure her of her mental affliction. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Parole Officer
British television comic Steve Coogan made his first bid for a big-screen career in this comedy, in which he plays Simon Garden, a singularly inept parole officer who has not had terribly good luck with his clients -- after many years on the job, only three of the former prisoners he's been looking after have avoided returning to a life of crime. Garden is transferred from his post in Blackpool to a new assignment in Manchester, and it isn't long before he finds himself in hot water. Garden happened to be on hand when Burton (Stephen Dellane), a crooked cop, murdered a drug dealer with whom he had been involved in a cocaine deal. Realizing he's in trouble, Burton rearranges the evidence so that Garden looks like the killer. A surveillance camera captured Burton's crime on tape, and now Garden must get his hands on the tape in order to clear his name. However, Burton has cleverly stashed the tape in a top security bank vault to keep it away from Garden, so the parole officer must stage a break-in to collect the evidence -- and he chooses as his accomplices George (Om Puri), Jeff (Steven Waddington), and Colin (Ben Miller), the three parolees who've stayed out of trouble until now. The Parole Officer also features Emma Williams as a former associate of Burton's who ends up helping out Garden, and cameos from Omar Sharif and Jenny Agutter. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A woman looking for a relaxing weekend instead finds her safety at stake in this psychological thriller. Chloe (Jessica Alba) is a famous model who is feeling stressed after a working trip to the U.S. -- where she'd been dogged by a persistent telephone stalker. While Chloe has a beau, she decides spontaneously to join Ned (Gary Love), a rock musician she's met, as he heads out to the British countryside for the weekend. Upon arrival, Chloe discovers that Ned already has guests -- washed-up rock star Stan (Iain Glen), his bickering wife Rachel (Jeanne Tripplehorn), their deaf-mute daughter Theresa (Mischa Barton), and nerdy hanger-on Gordon (Ewen Bremner). As the emotional chemistry of the visitors becomes volatile, Ned's wife arrives and most of the other guests take off, leaving Chloe alone with her host and his spouse. Chloe soon discovers that Ned and his friends have a disturbing hobby -- they like to bring women back to the house, drug them, and violate them while unconscious, leaving her to wonder if she's next for this treatment. Paranoid was written and directed by noted Australian filmmaker John Duigan. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Elisabeth Shue stars in this drama as Molly McKay, a mentally challenged woman who has suffered from autism since childhood. Institutionalized since the age of three, Molly is released at age 28 into the custody of her brother Buck (Aaron Eckhart), whom she hasn't seen since childhood. While Buck cares for his sister, she is in many ways a stranger to him, and he's having enough problems in his life at the moment. When Buck is told by doctors of a risky experimental surgery that could cure Molly, he gives his consent. The operation is a success, and Molly emerges with the emotional walls of autism removed, revealing her to be a genius. But the autistic personality's intense concentration remains, and Buck finds the new Molly nearly as challenging as the old one. Molly's supporting cast includes D.W. Moffett, Jill Hennessy, and Thomas Jane; it was the first credit for screenwriter Dick Christie. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A young girl finds friendship on the wrong side of the career tracks in this drama. Camelot Gardens is a "gated community" where wealthy people can purchase luxurious (if sterile) homes and a security force ensures that riffraff will be kept away from your door after nightfall. The Stockard family are new arrivals at Camelot Gardens; father Morton (Christopher McDonald) is a businessman who wants to go into politics, while mother Clare (Kathleen Quinlan) busies herself with affairs with younger men. Neither seems to have much time for their 10-year-old daughter Devon (Mischa Barton), who doesn't care for children her own age; Devon's uncle likes to entertain her with stories about a witch named Baba Yaga who lives in the forest, so one day she wanders into the nearby woods looking for Baba. Instead, she finds a trailer that's home to Trent (Sam Rockwell), a 20-something free spirit who scrapes together a living by mowing the lawns of Camelot Gardens. Devon and Trent both have physical and emotional scars to deal with, and they soon become friends and confidantes; however, Devon's parents become upset when they learn that their daughter's best friend is a grown man, particularly one who lives in a trailer and does lawn maintenance for a living. Lawn Dogs won awards at a number of international film festivals in 1997, including the Stockholm Film Festival, the Montreal World Film Festival, and the Catalonian International Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

This light romantic comedy follows the amorous backstage shenanigans of the cast and crew as they prepare to stage "The Hit Man," noted playwright Felix Webb's latest play. The trouble begins when director Humphrey Beal hires Felix's extramarital lover Hilary Rule as his leading lady. Working in such close proximity does nothing to help an already tense relationship made more shaky by Hilary's insistence that Felix leave his insecure wife Elena. When Humphrey hires hot, young movie star Robin Grange to play opposite Hilary, matters really heat up, especially after the handsome and perceptive young stud offers to seduce Elena so that Felix can have grounds to dump her. Unfortunately for Felix, this dreamy solution soon turns to a nightmare when Robin proves too irresistible. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

This drama chronicles the moral fortitude and courage of a simple North Carolina farmer in 1815. The trouble begins when the widowed farmer August King takes his wagon to a nearby town to get supplies and make the final payment on his land. He arrives to find the townsfolk quite agitated as two slaves have escaped from the estate of Olaf Singletary, the richest man in town. August had earlier seen the fleeing 17-year-old slave girl. That night, he is camped out and the starving runaway stumbles in. August is a good, highly-principled man and decides to ignore his own personal risk and help her. He conceals the fugitive from Olaf and his posse as he hurries back to the safety of his farm. Still despite his efforts, word leaks out that a traveler is harboring the slave and that he has a milk cow attached to the back of his wagon. To fool the pursuers, August kills his cow, and later as he is shooting some wild rapids he loses his new pig. Eventually, August comes upon Olaf and sees him capture the other slave and brutally chop him up because he is angry that the young slave girl, for whom he has a special reason for wanting back, isn't with him. By the time August makes it back to his home, almost everything he values has been lost or destroyed, but he has learned some valuable lessons about what is really important in life. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Sex, religion, and morality are the key ingredients in this Australian comedy set in the 1930s. Rev. Anthony Campion (Hugh Grant) is a liberal, forward-thinking Anglican priest who is sent on an unusual assignment. Norman Lindsay (Sam Neill) is a popular and highly controversial artist whose paintings often feature voluptuous nude women; his latest major exhibition is to feature a work called
The Crucified Venus
, which depicts a naked female impaled on a cross. Outraged, the Anglican Bishop of Sydney wants Campion to visit Lindsay and persuade him to remove the work from his show. Rev. Campion and his wife, Estella (Tara Fitzgerald), travel to Lindsay's Blue Mountain estate, where the artist is hard at work with a bevy of lovely nude models in tow, including Sheela (Elle MacPherson), Giddy (Portia de Rossi), and Pru (Kate Fischer). The Reverend is quietly appalled by the open sensuality of Lindsay's household, and Estella is mortified; they're even more upset when Lindsay calmly but firmly refuses to remove
The Crucified Venus
from his show. However, the longer the Campions stay with Lindsay in hopes of changing his mind, the more they find themselves drawn into the sensuous pleasures of his world. Sirens was based on an actual incident and Norman Lindsay was a real artist of the period (his life was depicted in the film Age of Consent, in which he was played by James Mason). But audiences were probably less interested in art and cultural history than in the opportunity to see supermodel Elle MacPherson appear undraped; she also gives a fine and charming comic performance, as do Hugh Grant and Tara Fitzgerald. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Wide Sargasso Sea
Director John Duigan brings Jean Rhys' difficult 1966 best-selling novel to the screen. It's a story meant to be a prequel to Charlotte Bronte's novel Jane Eyre, surmising what drove the first Mrs. Rochester mad in that novel. In Jamaica in the 1840s, slavery has been recently outlawed. Plantation owner Annette Cosway (Rachel Ward) has become so poor that she marries a rich, boorish Englishman whom she does not love. Her husband, Paul Mason (Michael York), is a sexist, racist tyrant who mistreats his servants and his wife. Paul flees to England after the servants and their countrymen revolt and burn down the mansion, killing Annette's young son. Annette goes insane and is consigned to the care of a servant. Her daughter Antoinette (Karina Lombard) is placed in a convent until she is old enough to inherit the property, but the inheritance depends on her marrying a proper husband. By previous arrangement, she marries Edward Rochester (Nathaniel Parker). At first they are lustily in love, but Rochester proves to be as elitist who is as disrespectful as Mason. Rochester has title to all of Antoinette's property, but he despises Jamaica and wants to return to England. He also fears the black magic of Christophene (Claudia Robinson), who mixes up a voodoo potion which ends up driving the couple farther apart. ~ Michael Betzold, Rovi

In El Salvador in the late '70s, the wealthy few rule the impoverished many. To maintain the status quo against peasant insurgents and labor organizations, the military regime brutalizes the populace, in particular, rebels who espouse Marxism. Assassinations, executions, and disappearances become commonplace. When the Vatican elevates conservative Oscar Arnulfo Romero (Raul Julia) to archbishop, the military rulers believe he will quiet the masses and the activist priests who support them. "Blessed are the peacemakers," he will preach. At first, that is precisely what he does. But when soldiers thwart voters, shoot indiscriminately into crowds, torture dissidents, and kill a dedicated priest and friend of Romero, the archbishop condemns the regime in radio messages, rebukes quisling bishops, and leads a peasant march into a church occupied by soldiers. He also insults and defies the El Salvadoran president (Harold Cannon), an iron-fisted general, who, ironically, has the same last name as the archbishop Romero, but is not related. The country by this time is in the throes of civil war. In 1980, when military death squads continue their reign of terror even though the government institutes so-called reforms, Romero continues to speak out, gaining international attention. The film then builds to its climax, a scene recreating the events of Monday, March 25, 1980, when Romero is saying mass for his recently deceased mother. Attendees include four men who have no intention of reciting
mea culpas
or receiving the Holy Eucharist. ~ Mike Cummings, Rovi

The Year My Voice Broke
The life of a teen in an isolated small town is the subject of Australian writer/director John Duigan's film, set in 1962 in New South Wales. Duigan's coming-of-age story has many familiar elements -- Danny Embling (Noah Taylor) discovers his sexual attraction to a childhood playmate (Leone Carmen as Freya), he undergoes the taunts of bullies at his school, rages against the narrow-minded views of his parents and many of the townspeople, and comes under the influence of a sympathetic adult (Bruce Spence as Jonah, a would-be writer who lives in an abandoned railroad car). The twist is that Danny's rival for Freya's affections, Trevor (Ben Mendelsohn), is a Jewish jock who becomes Danny's friend by standing up to the bullies and treating Freya with more respect than the other boys do. Duigan, who had been making films in Australia since the mid-'70s, broke through to U.S. audiences with this film and its sequel, Flirting, in which Noah Taylor reprises the lead role. ~ Tom Wiener, Rovi

One Night Stand
This is one of the more unusual films about a nuclear holocaust, nearly introspective in its focus on a handful of people in Sydney's world-famous opera house, finding ways to pass the time until the morning brings more news. The setting is New Year's Eve (in the middle of summer here), and some intimation of the immediate future surfaces in the form of reports on a major crisis in Europe and the aftermath of demonstrations against U.S. nuclear ships at harbor in Sydney. Sharon (Cassandra Delaney) and Eva (Saskia Post) are young teen roommates who are more interested in their own personal relationships than what is happening in distant Europe, and after meeting at the opera house where Sharon works, they are ready to go off to a New Year's party together. But before they can leave, a radio broadcast announces that nuclear bombs have been dropped in Europe and North America and also on U.S. targets in Australia. The announcer requests that people remain where they are, and the two shocked teenagers are at a loss as to how to cope. They are soon joined by an American soldier gone AWOL and a custodian who was busy working after the end of the evening's concert. The four isolated people explore the empty building, engage in conversation just to fill the time, and even distract themselves with a game of strip poker -- anything to avoid facing the possibility that this may be the last night of their lives. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Kim Krejus and Sonia Peat star as a couple of disenfranchised Australian teenagers. Unemployed and bored with their listless existence at home, the kids take to the streets. With barely a pause to consider the consequences, Krejus and Peat steal, lie, con and offer themselves sexually in order to stay alive. The cinematic virtues of Mouth to Mouth, director John Duigan's second feature film, have been somewhat obscured by the critical attention given Duigan's "breakthrough" 1988 feature The Year My Voice Broke. In addition to directing this fast-paced slice of street life, Duigan also produced and wrote the screenplay. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

We've reached the bottom of the barrel. The last weekend before Labor Day, and the official end of summer offered little than inspired excitement. I guess it's a fitting end to a summer of films that were about the weakest in recent memory -- maybe ever. Despite Inception's greatness, it can only do so much.
There were bright spots with Inception, Kick-Ass, Scott Pilgrim, The Other Guys and Piranha 3D (no, I'm not joking), but the best films I caught this summer hailed from Sweden, the meth-infested Ozarks, and the graffiti covered streets of Los Angeles -- indies and imports that Hollywood seems only to re-make or ignore.
And as summer circles the drain, we have Takers, the trailer for which I've been seeing for what seems like forever. I guess I decided a long time ago I wouldn't expect much (despite the presence of the great Idris Elba). That's more or less what I got.
Director John Luessenhop (with a trio of co-writers) decided he wanted to make a hip-hop Ocean's Eleven combined with the stylistic finger print of Michael Mann. If only what he had crafted were nearly as sophisticated, entertaining or unique as the influences he aims to dabble in.
Takers find its ensemble cast of players in the bank heist game (though unlike their Danny Ocean led forebears, they're just in it to live large). Gordon Jennings (Elba) is the cool, calm and collected leader of the group, which of course includes varying specialists. There's John Rahway (Paul Walker), sniper expert; A.J. (Hayden Christensen), the tech whiz; Jake Attica (Michael Ealy) is ... hell, I don't even remember, but he has a brother named Jesse (Chris Brown) who can run really fast.
The distinctions started to blur pretty quickly because the film feels like it was written by copying and pasting sample situations in Final Draft, though that doesn't excuse Christensen's hat (standing in for his personality).
After a big heist goes off successfully, the crew retreats to their high dollar hideout to count money and look suave. They get an unexpected visit from an old partner, Ghost (T.I., leaning heavily on the Snoop Dogg school of line delivery) who just got sprung from prison after years of keeping his mouth shut about the job he pulled with Jennings that put him there. He has a proposition for an armored truck heist. The only catch is they need to plan it and carry it off in less than a week.
Meanwhile an embattled detective, Jack Welles (Matt Dillion barely trying to care) is desperate to collar the arrogant and successful crew. He's your classic loner cop, Martin Riggs-type, just not nearly as interesting and not much helped by his ersatz partner Eddie (Jay Hernandez).
Anyway, drama ensues, revelations change everything, and worlds collide. Imagine those last two in Movie Guy Voice.
Takers was so tedious, derivative and bereft of any real substance, it really wasn't long before I was counting the reel changes waiting for the end of its ambient, meaningless stylishness.
The only real upside was a couple of the performances, particularly Idris Elba and Marianne Jean-Baptiste as Jennings' recovering addict sister, Naomi.
Paul Walker is also good as Rahway, though again he's not given much to do; he still capably embodies the role with his reliable charisma that more often than not gets wasted in films such as Takers.
But for every acting bright spot, there is an equal and opposite reaction that does as much to cancel out the good as any element of this flicks generic construction.
T.I. and Chris Brown try to coast on the attitude that Hayden Christensen is desperately looking for. They all come off like they are out of their league, though I'm not sure if fans of the music stars (or any hopeless Star Wars nerds) care too much about things like ability.
The script is a mish-mash of plot holes, contradictions and unbelievable situations that are of course woven with clichéd dialogue and a dearth of individuality.
When Ghost is paroled, none of his old cohorts seem to trust him despite the fact the guy did five years without squealing (though they are holding his money from the last job). No real reason is given for their distrust and despite it, they still break their one-year moratorium rule five minutes after they announce it to the audience and go in business with him. The film is so lazily written and dull, I'm surprised any of its incongruities stuck out enough to be memorable.
Director Luessenhop has created a decent looking film, but his attempts to generate Michael Mann-like visual ambience only draw attention to how empty and pastiche the whole thing feels. By the time the slo-mo climactic shoot out with some textbook Russian mobsters hit (as we all knew it would) my eyes had kind of glazed over as I went limp from the banality of it all.
Takers took something, all right. Life I won't get back.
No Low Notes
Earlier this year, I caught what would be Jeff Bridge's Golden Globe winning performance as Bad Blake in the utterly enjoyable Crazy Heart. When you see a turn like that, you have to assume accolades will be raining down come awards season, and I don't think I'll assume any differently for Robert Duvall (who had a cameo in Crazy Heart presumably because greatness can smell its own). He'll get nominated for this; Aaron Schneider's remarkably accomplished feature directorial debut Get Low.
Very loosely based on a somewhat true tale, Get Low plants us in the backwoods of Tennessee; the foreboding and eerie opening scene revealing a burning man escaping from a blazing house fire and disappearing into the inky night.
Later, in the waning 1930s, we meet Felix Bush (Duvall) a lonely hermit who lives in a cabin of his own construction with his pet mule in the middle of hundreds of acres of prime forest that he owns. The local kids, wanting to test the wrath of the much gossiped about old man, incur it by tossing rocks at his windows. He drives them off with no real consequences for the kids (probably a disappointment). Bush just wants to be left alone to cut fire wood and pay his penance.
When the local priest, Rev. Horton (Gerald McRaney), informs Bush of the passing of an acquaintance, Bush goes into town --engendering looks of curious hostility from the locals -- to visit Horton. But instead of coming for the funeral, Bush has a wad of money and an unusual request for his own interment.
Rebuffed, he is still overheard by Buddy Robinson (Lucas Black) an entry-level sales man under the employ of Frank Quinn (Bill Murray), the owner of the local funeral parlor. Business isn't what it should be, so Quinn takes Robinson out to Bush's cabin to make his first sale.
But Bush's wishes for his final repose are a little more complicated than his choice of casket. He wants Quinn to throw him a funeral party and invite everyone that has a story to tell about him -- meaning just about everyone in four counties. Not only that, but he wants to raffle off his hundreds of acres of prime woodland to anyone who can buy the $5 ticket. But the capper? He wants to be in attendance at his own funeral -- while still alive.
Get Low is a lovely, if sometimes cloying, blend of gallows humor and touching character study that is elevated by its performances, particularly Duvall and Murray. The film weaves those styles together, while it peels back the layers of Felix Bush's sad tale, revealing more and more about the nature of his solitude and his quest for redemption.
Distrust born when unanswered rumors multiply out of all reality underlines the theme that people never really know the truth about others, and sometimes not even themselves ("Gossip is the Devil's radio," as Bush says). It's a theme that rings true not only in its poignancy (and relevance) but also the skill with which it is delivered by the film's exceptional performances.
Aaron Schneider has crafted a tale filled with haunting mood, surprising humor, and a rich visual aesthetic that drips with period atmosphere (not surprising as he's spent most of his career as an apparently great cinematographer; that job handled here by the similarly talented David Boyd). His pacing is agile and the film, while considerate in its flow, never really bogs down or feels like it over stays its welcome. If there were ever a movie that felt like being warm and comfortable on a cold and rainy day, it's Get Low.
I can't heap enough praise on Duvall's consummate performance, except to pause for Bill Murray. He brings his trademark drier than Death Valley delivery and attention to subtle character detail (and a pleasing undercurrent of scoundrel) to Frank Quinn. Of course, they both have a script that gives them plenty of character depth to work with, but it's times like these when I wonder at how underrated Murray is at balancing his comedic chops with his dramatic ones.
Sissy Spacek was also strong as Mattie Darrow, an old flame from Bush's past, while Lucas Black gives a fine turn that totally made me forget about Legion. Fact is, I wouldn't change a thing about the casting. They're all a joy to watch.
The climax falters -- I was waiting for an uppercut that only grazed my chin -- but Get Low feels like a fine book that only exists on the screen. A slice of American Gothic rich with the dream like qualities of sibylline poetry.

They spent Thursday assembling the tents where spectators can enjoy beverages and stay warm.
The man-made ice rinks are also ready to host the Pond Hockey action, says Lisa Texido, associate brand manager with Labatt Blue...
"We've had the tent company down here all morning getting those tents set. We've had Pace Rinks here doing additional ice preps, making sure the layers are setting the way we need them to," Texido says.
Labatt Blue announced a week ago Friday that it was partnering with Pace Rinks to construct the man-made rinks because even though it hasn't been cold enough to freeze the ice on the lake, it has been cold enough to ensure the ice would stay solid in man-made rinks.
City of Buffalo crews have also been helping out with getting the lots ready, Texido says. As for the expected snow, she says they're ready to deal with it.
"I'd say the good news about the timing of the system that we're going to get is that it is Friday, so by Saturday morning, we'll have dealt with it," Texido says.
She says the city is prepared for additional salting, and crews from Pace Rinks will take care of any snow clearing that's necessary.

countries; China along will account for 30 percent of the increase. Meanwhile, China's share of world oil demand alone is expected to jump from 7.6 percent in 2004 to almost 11 percent in 2020, according to The Economist. India's share has also increased last year. Global oil consumption
increased at 3.4 percent, more than the typical annual growth rate of 1-2 percent. Most surveyed executives link escalating demand to the East Asian economic boom (in China, India and Pakistan). Respondents predict an increase in demand for all energy types, including a renewed focus on nuclear energy. Most survey respondents believe that booming demand will further strengthen calls for emission controls from consumers and governments. The stage where industry executives will face environmental challenges while simultaneously addressing the increased demand pressures has been labelled by a number of our respondents as a
period of "Sustainable Creativity" (Figure 1). This period will test the industry's inventiveness, its ability to reach out across regional and competitive lines and its ability to shape economic and social dialogue. previous | next

Maltese Falcon Designer's 1920s-Style Superyacht Inspired by JFK
Filed under: Yachts & Sailing
Ken Freivokh, designer of the famed Maltese Falcon, the world's largest, most high-tech, beautiful and costliest sailing yacht, has gone classic for his latest project, the 1920's-inspired superyacht Sycara IV (above). The 151-ft. luxury yacht, built by the Burger Boat Company in Wisconsin, is designed to cruise the Great Lakes in high style and is partly inspired by John F. Kennedy's yacht the Honey Fitz. The aluminum-bodied craft resembles a classic wooden motor yacht with a schooner bow and fantail hull. The Art Deco-inspired interior woodwork is a masterpiece of handcrafted mahogany and madrone burl, with ebony, sycamore and padouk accents highlighted with stainless steel details in scores of inlays and moldings. Lalique bathroom fixtures are the finishing Deco touch. Of course she's also equipped with every bit of state-of-the-art tech you'd expect in a modern superyacht.

Goal was to add fruit - 1st fruit breakfast then adding lunch etc... I dropped meat & became vegetarian then vegan w/n 2 months time, then juice feast for 30 days & banana island for 2 wks. Husband loved my results so much he wanted to join & we are restarting all over together this month. I didn't eat enough fruit 1st time around & didn't have any recipes to help with greens. I found FullyRawKristina, Rawfully Organic, Megan Elizabeth, & Terri Leventhal on YouTube & they have amazing advice & recipes. This time around we are just jumping in w/ both feet. Chonometer or something like that should help you iron out your calories. Hope that helps you...still a work in progress on our end.
Hey Candace nice to meet you! Ya we got another Northern Arizonan :)
I am always wanting to meet more Vegan's! I hope I can make it to the fruit-luck coming up :) Will have to convince my roommates to go too!
Hey! I tried raw food 02/11 but it was high fat raw vegan. My husband & I only lasted 2 weeks before we broke down & went back to a S.A.D. diet. I kept researching through the spring & most search reasults led me here. Intriqued I purched Dr. Grahams book 80/10/10 & started my transition slowly over the summer while I educated myself. Then at the end of summer I dove right in to Dr. Graham's recommendations for transitioning. I have chronic pancreatitis so my transition has been slower than one would normally do. I'm on my second day of "mono fruit island" & its been amazing so far...
You're welcome. I used to wish I had red hair. But even if I did dye it with henna, it wouldn't have passed with my thick black eyebrows. Therefore I went with another haircolour I love - black. I use a mixture of pure indigo and henna black. :)
I couldn't agree with you more, Candace. This community is my holy sanctuary. :) By the way, I really dig your hair - beautiful colour-combination! :)
The nurse that tells you about that obviously doesn't know her stuff and should stuff it - with fruit - because she is seriously undercarbed...
Greetings to the 30B and the AZ group, Candace. Beautiful little town, your Payson. I once got some killer apricots at your health food store. Bought the whole flat as a matter of fact :)

The Spider God's Bride brought Morten Braten's epic sword & sorcery collection to the Legend RPG, and we have since published the second book in his saga, Song of the Beast-Gods. Now stand by for his third masterpiece, Citadel Beyond the North Wind!
This is a true sandbox setting set within the world of Xoth. Players will travel to a land far to the north, past the black hills of Lamu and beyond the frozen moors of Tharag Thule. It is a dreary land of mist and thunder, and the white people of Yg have dwelt there since ancient times. Across this land, on towering hilltops and beside fog-shrouded lakes, stand somber granite castles, and therein dwell the princelings and tyrants of Yg with their countless thralls and slaves and subjects. The free men of Yg tremble when fools dare to utter the name of Arkanth Mal, for he is the greatest and oldest of the tyrants of this primeval land. He is the witch-king of Galuga, grand master of necromancy and alchemy...

Treasury 10-year yields touched the highest level in seven weeks amid speculation talks are progressing in Washington to resolve a budget showdown that threatens to send the economy into recession.
U.S. government securities pared losses before the Treasury sells $35 billion of five-year debt in the second of four note auctions this week totaling $113 billion. President Barack Obama, in talks yesterday with House Speaker John Boehner, lowered his tax revenue demand by $200 billion and offered to start tax-rate increases at $400,000 in income instead of $250,000.
"Treasuries are reacting to the continued progress on Washington negotiations," said Jim Vogel, head of agency-debt research at FTN Financial in Memphis, Tennessee. "Markets like the middle-ground tone being struck."
The benchmark 10-year yield was little changed at 1.78 percent at 9:06 a.m. New York time, according to Bloomberg Bond Trader prices. The yield touched 1.79 percent, the highest level since Oct. 26. The price of the 1.625 percent note due in November 2022 was 98 5/8.
The five-year note yield traded at 0.73 percent after earlier rising to 0.75 percent, the highest level since Nov. 6.
Bets Raised
Investors in Treasuries raised bets prices of the securities will drop, resulting in the most net-short positions in the week ended yesterday since June, according to a survey by JPMorgan Chase & Co.
The proportion of net shorts, or bets the securities will fall in value, was at six percentage points in the week ending yesterday, according to JPMorgan, up from four percentage points the week ended Dec. 10.
The percent of outright longs was steady at 15 percent, while the percent of outright shorts, or bets the securities will fall in value, rose to 21 percent, from 19 percent in the week ended Dec. 10, according to the survey. Investors cut neutral bets to 64 percent from 66 percent, the survey reported.
Yields rose earlier amid optimism on the budget talks in Washington. Obama's revised plan would raise $1.2 trillion in taxes in the next decade and cut $1.22 trillion in spending, said a person familiar with the talks. Obama would accept a new inflation yardstick that would reduce Social Security cost-of- living increases, according to the person, who sought anonymity.
Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor will give House Republicans an update on the negotiations today, said a leadership aide who requested anonymity.
More than $600 billion in tax increases and spending cuts will automatically start taking effect in January unless Congress acts. Failing to avert the fiscal cliff may push the economy in recession, according to the Congressional Budget Office.
The U.S. sold $35 billion of two-year notes yesterday. It will sell $29 billion of seven-year debt tomorrow and $14 billion of five-year Treasury Inflation Protected Securities on Dec. 20.
The five-year notes scheduled for sale yielded 0.76 percent in pre-auction trading, compared with 0.641 percent at the previous auction of the securities on Nov. 28.
Investors bid for 2.89 times the amount of available debt last month, compared with 2.73 times on Oct. 24.
Improved Performance
"Auction performance has improved in the five-year sector recently," Mikael Nilsson Rosell, an analyst at Barclays Plc in London wrote in an e-mailed report. The firm is one of 21 primary dealers obliged to bid in U.S. debt auctions. "Since dropping sharply in the second quarter, the bid-cover ratio has recovered."
The Federal Reserve will buy as much as $2.25 billion of Treasuries today maturing between February 2036 and November 2042 and sell as much as $8 billion of government debt due between June 2015 and November 2015, according to the New York Fed's website. The transactions are part of a program known as Operation Twist, under which the central bank replaces shorter- maturity notes in its holdings with longer-dated debt.
With that set to expire this month, the Fed will start to buy U.S. government bonds next year in an expansion of a round of so-called quantitative easing that doesn't involve selling shorter-term securities. Fed Bank of Dallas President Richard Fisher, scheduled to speak today, said last week that the central bank may never be able to exit its unprecedented bond- buying program.
U.S. gross domestic product expanded an annualized 2.8 percent in the three months ended Sept. 30, compared with the previously reported 2.7 percent growth, according to the median estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. The Commerce Department will release the updated figure on Dec. 20.

Listen to 103.3 fm WPRB on Wednesday, February 13th at 8:00 pm ET as Jon Solomon welcomes Ernest Jenning recording artist Trummors to the station for a live session.
The lovely, whispy duo of Anne Cunningham and David Lerner (formerly of Native Nod and Ted Leo & The Pharmacists) released their debut album "Over & Around The Clove" last year and Alternative Press wrote of it at the time:
"An album made for listening while you stare from your back porch (or apartment window) as the sun sets…the latest proof that the well of traditional American music is truly bottomless."
Here is a video for the record's title track.
You can see Trummors live on Valentines Day in Philadelphia at Kung Fu Necktie with Mary Lattimore, Fred Thomas and Morning River Band.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) _ Gasoline prices are on the rise and headed to a record in North Dakota.
North Dakota AAA spokesman Gene LaDoucer (luh-DOO-sur) says the average price of gas in the state could reach $4.15 per gallon, breaking the July 2008 record of $4.08.
A gallon of regular unleaded gas already is at $4.24 per gallon at some gas stations in the Bismarck-Mandan area. And North Dakota Petroleum Marketers Association President Mike Rud (rood) says some stations in Jamestown and Fargo have even run out of fuel.
LaDoucer says several large refineries that feed the region are down for maintenance or upgrades, and that a recent fire at a refinery in Minnesota also has contributed to the supply problems.

BREAKING NEWS: House Approves Budget Agreement, 332-94
Washington, DC Friday, November 18, 2011
On C-SPAN Radio' s historic Supreme Court Oral Argument this week: On November 30, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear the oral argument in "FAA v. Cooper"—a case about whether mental or emotional injuries count as actual damages, under the Privacy Act. On November 19th, on C-SPAN Radio's historic Supreme Court oral argument, a case cited in "FAA v. Cooper." From 1994: "Consolidated Rail Corporation, Petitioner v. James Gottshall and Alan Carlisle, Respondents."
Conrail employee James Gottshall saw fellow worker, Richard Johns die of a heart attack while on duty. Mr. Gottshall's boss postponed seeking medical assistance for Mr. Johns----insisted that the rest of the crew keep working---and left the body at the work site for the remainder of the work day. Shortly after Richard Johns's death, James Gottshall was admitted to a psychiatric institution—and he sued Conrail under the Federal Employers' Liability Act, or FELA, claiming Conrail exposed him to distressing circumstances which he claimed caused his illness. A District Court rejected the suit. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit reversed and found that Mr. Gottshall's injuries were "genuine and severe."
Conrail employee Alan Carlisle also filed a FELA action against Conrail, claming Conrail subjected him to unsafe working conditions, which caused him stress and lead to health problems. The Third Circuit affirmed the judgment for Mr. Carlisle, finding that the stress-related health problems were foreseeable to Conrail.
Listen to the courtroom recording of the oral argument in the 1994 case "Conrail v. Gotshall and Carlisle"--Saturday, November 19 at 6 pm ET on C-SPAN Radio: 90.1 FM in the Washington, DC area, online at Cspanradio.org and nationwide on XM Satellite Radio, channel 119.

Multiple times, Surdyka said she saw two men struggling on the ground, one on top of the other, but she couldn't discern who was on top because it was dark and rainy that night.
Prosecutor Bernie De La Rionda played for the jury the 911 call Surdyka made the night of shooting. On the recording, Surdyka is heard crying and becoming hysterical. The 911 operator stayed on the phone with her to calm her down.
Prosecutors also called Jeannee Manalo, another witness, to the stand Wednesday. Manalo testified that from her point of view inside her townhome, she could see two men struggling on the ground. She also said she believes Zimmerman was on top of Martin during the altercation and that she could see his hands moving.
During cross-examination, Manalo said photographs she saw on the news of a younger Martin support her view that Zimmerman was on top during the altercation. Defense attorney Mark O'Mara asked her if she had ever seen recent photos of Martin. She said no but maintained that based on the photographs, the bigger person was on top, and Zimmerman seemed to be the bigger person.
Before court recessed for the day, the defense told the judge it expects to need a couple more hours to question Martin's friend, Jeantel. Testimony is scheduled to resume at 9 a.m. ET on Thursday.

Hello Everyone,and Welcome to our new subscribers,
Its finally the time to reveal our NEW IPO ALERT!
Liberty Gold Corp (NASDAQ OTCBB: LBGO)
LBGO engages in the exploration of gold, silver, and other precious metals.
LBGO's ongoing property acquisition strategy targets regions with proven gold and silver resources and industry-friendly business environments.
The Alaska Project
LBGO holds a 60% interest in Moneyrock gold project covering approximately 2,560-acres located 80 miles southeast of Fairbanks, Alaska.
LBGO also holds interest in the Indian claims comprising 32 state claims; the Aurora claims, including 4 MTRSC state claims; and the Rainbow claims consisting of 4 MTRSC state claims located in Alaska.
This Alaska project is surrounded by major gold projects and production, including International Tower Hill's Livengood Project (resource estimate of 20.6 Moz gold) & Kingross Gold's Fort Knox mine (currently producing > $1M of gold equivalent per day).
The Arizona Project
LBGO holds a 100% interest in a claim block covering approximately 794-acre located in Arizona.
The Arizona project represents estimated resources of 8.09 million gold equivalent ounces. When including the discovery of indium, gallium and rare earth metals, total resources for blocked out, assayed and geologically inferred ore potentially amounts to $16.70 billion.
Demand For Gold Continues To Rise
Since the gold rally began in 2001, gold prices have been driven higher by an ever shifting combination of economic and market factors.
Despite a decade of continued rising prices, demand remains stronger while increasing across different sectors.
The US Geological Survey (USGS) estimates the breakdown of annual gold demand by sector in 2012 was 69% for jewelry and arts, 9% for electrical and electronics, and 22% for dental and other investment-related demand.
According to the World Gold Council (WGC), annual jewelry demand in 2010 was 17% higher than in 2009, reaching a record of $81 billion.
Meanwhile, annual demand for gold from the technology sector in 2010 was 12.4% higher than 2009, with demand soaring by 41% year-on-year in US dollar terms to a record $17 billion.
Since 2010 the price per troy ounce of gold has risen nearly 80%!
Growing Investment Demand For Gold
A significant source of gold supply was effectively removed from the market in 2010 due to central banks acting as net buyers of gold, a structural shift in the market that has not occurred in 21 years.
In terms of institutional and retail investment, the annual demand for gold in 2010 represented a 23% rise in value terms, up from $43 billion in 2009 to $52 billion.
Demand for physical bars in 2010 recorded an annual gain of 56%, and demand for gold ETFs and similar products represented 9% of total demand and total gold holdings at year's end of 2,175 tonnes worth $96 billion.
Expert Predictions
In a nationally televised CNBC interview, Peter Schiff an American businessman, investment broker, author and financial commentator predicted gold will see $5,000 per ounce.
In a separate televised interview, Rob McEwen, Chairman & CEO of US Gold and founder of Goldcorp, predicts a gold price $5,000 before gold peaks.
In yet another televised interview, Mike Maloney who is a renowned precious metals investors, serial entrepreneur, author, and a recognized historian on monetary history and economics predicted gold to reach $15,000 over the next 3 to 5 years.
Experts believe world instability which continues to rise & the continued financial bail outs of banks around the world will be a leading factor that sends gold to much higher prices in the years to come.
LBGO's stable of major gold and silver projects is well established, and thanks to an active approach to property acquisitions, Libery Gold's portfolio of significant assets continues to grow putting the company in perfect position to take advantage of the growing demand for gold across the world.
Make sure to put LBGO on your trading screens starting tomorrow morning because this exciting new company could bring the perfect profitable opportunity in the weeks ahead.
Happy Trading,

Pan-European multilateral trading facility (MTF) BATS Chi-X Europe has again extended its Spanish pricing promotion, after becoming the first alternative venue to grab over 5% equity market share in the country.
The promotion – which covers trading, clearing and settlement costs on the Chi-X Europe order book – will now run beyond its current end of June expiry date until the end of September.
Under the promotion, the rebate for passive executions in all IBEX 35 stocks will be 0.3 basis points, instead of the standard 0.2 bps. Participants that trade in excess of €200 million per calendar month will also have their gross central counterparty clearing fees and settlement costs (for a maximum of two settlements per stock) refunded for six selected securities.
The six stocks qualifying for the post-trade cost reduction comprise Banco Santander, BBVA, Iberdrola, Inditex, Repsol and Telefonica.
The promotion was first implemented in October 2011, before BATS Global Markets completed its acquisition of Chi-X Europe. The MTF accounted for 5.37% of trading in Spanish blue chip stocks last month.
Liquidity in Spanish stocks has taken longer to materialise that other European markets because of complex post-trade issues that previously required alternative venues to establish a relationship with the local central securities depository. While these restrictions have been lifted, settlement fees are higher for MTFs compared to the domestic exchange and the settlement cycle is longer in Spain compared to other European markets.

[News Scan, December 2001], Ed Regis confuses the threat of biological weapons to public health with their threat to national security," writes C. Allen Black of the University of Pittsburgh. "The fact that bioweapons are not likely to be used for mass destruction is of no comfort or even practical relevance when our government and the entire U.S. infrastructure is vulnerable to one or a few men that the police and government seem powerless to find or stop. Perhaps after the anthrax attack, there is no justification for mass vaccinations based on the public health threat. From now on, though, an oath of office should be preceded by vaccination."

These are the days when you don't mind your team not being at full-strength. Missing two of their top four singles players, the Camden High tennis team breezed to their eighth straight win by upending Sumter, 5-1, last Thursday in Sumter. The Bulldogs improved to 11-3 on the season heading into this afternoon 5 p.m. home pairing with Irmo. On Thursday, Roger Smoak's troops close the regular season with a road match at Wilson. As ...
For whatever reason, Camden has had more than its share of pitchers having to deal with first inning issues along with spells in which the defense has been the team's Achilles' heel.
Jake Ansley arrived at American Legion Park on Tuesday a bundle of nervous energy and with a sore right elbow.
Make it a four-peat. Camden wrapped up its fourth straight Region 6-AAA girls' soccer championship with a 3-0 road win at Hartsville Tuesday night. The Lady Bulldogs improved to 9-0 in conference play and 12-1 overall with their fifth consecutive shutout. For Hartsville, this was its second league loss this season, both coming to Camden. The Red Foxes had hoped to make the region race interesting, but CHS would have none of that. Sophomore goalkeeper ...
With storm clouds gathering and rain on the way, the Camden High tennis team could ill afford to waste any time in Tuesday's match at A.C. Flora.
The Camden High baseball team is honoring all KCRD T-Ball teams at tonight's 6:30 p.m. home game against Fairfield Central.
After having been postponed due to weather on its first try this season, the annual Camden High School Alumni Baseball Game will be played on Saturday, April 14.
Playing without starting third singles performer, Nelson Semple, the Camden High tennis team rolled into this week's spring break with a 4-2 win over Hartsville in a match played last Thursday at the CHS Athletic Complex.
After an uneven start to the season, the Camden High tennis team downed Wilson and Lugoff-Elgin on Monday and Tuesday, respectively, to extend their win streak to four matches with one more contest left before taking next week off for spring break.
When in doubt, stick to what you do best. Earlier this season, when they were having trouble scoring runs, the Camden baseball team stuck to their guns while not getting away from the fundamentals of offense. Staying true has proved beneficial as the Bulldogs went for double digits for the third time in what is now a five-game win streak after upending visiting Hartsville, 12-7, on a chilly Tuesday night contest at American Legion Park. ...
Jake Ansley belted Camden's first home run of the season in helping lead the Bulldogs to their sixth straight win in Wednesday's 4-2 non-region victory over visiting Dreher.
Two more victories extended the Camden High girls' soccer team's win streak to eight.
Not even a break from baseball for football last fall failed to slow down Jake Ansley. After a sizzling summer in which he led the Kershaw County American Legion baseball team in batting, the Camden High senior has picked up where he left off this spring for the Bulldogs. Friday night, Ansley shut out host Marlboro County, 6-0, with a complete game gem. To top it off, he added a two-run single in a four-run ...
Over the past few years, Darlington has given the Camden tennis team fits. Not so much this time around.
with a big effort, the senior gave the Bulldogs just what they wanted. Hough, a 6-foot-2 right-hander, went the distance on the mound as the visiting Bulldogs scored a run in the top of the seventh to break a 2-all tie and give them a 3-2 win over Crestwood Tuesday night. The victory gave Camden a 3-2 record in Region 6-AAA and a 5-5 overall mark. Hough went seven innings in which he scattered five ...
Avenging their only loss in three starts this season, the Camden boys basketball team handed host Lakewood a 52-42 defeat on Wednesday night in Sumter.
Camden High School senior Madison Grant and junior teammate Morgan Wilson were named to the 2013 All-Region 4-AAA Volleyball Team as selected by the conference's seven head coaches.
Camden High offensive tackle Mauric James was selected to play in the 2013 Touchstone Energy Cooperatives Bowl in Myrtle Beach on Saturday, Dec. 14.

Today is the deadline to register to vote in this year's elections on Nov. 3. Find details on the Hamilton County Board of Elections web site.
Here are voter registration contacts for other local counties:
A tri-partisan mix of Cincinnati City Council members are once again reaching across party lines to hold a joint fundraiser — and bragging quite a bit while doing it.
Democrat Jeff Berding, Republican Leslie Ghiz and Charterite Chris Bortz are holding a campaign fundraiser together on Oct. 7. The trio also held a joint fundraiser in 2007 and often receives campaigning advice from Jeff Cramerding, executive director of the Charter Committee, Cincinnati's de facto third political party.
CityBeat has been trying to confirm the hottest rumor swirling in political circles since last Thursday, but the information was already the talk of the town at today's annual AFL-CIO Labor Day Picnic at Coney Island: Local union leaders have rescinded their endorsement of Cincinnati City Councilman Jeff Berding, a Democratic incumbent.
He might not have won in November's Cincinnati City Council elections, but Kevin Flynn has scored a victory elsewhere.
Flynn, who ran unsuccessfully as a Charterite in the 2009 and 2011 council elections, has been selected as the president of the group that endorsed him. The Charter Committee of Greater Cincinnati announced today that Flynn has been elected president of the organization, taking over for Dawn Denno, who didn't seek reelection.
Flynn is a real-estate attorney from Mount Airy who also teaches at the University of Cincinnati's law school. He has been confined to a wheelchair since a serious automobile accident in 2002.
During his first campaign in 2009 Flynn placed 13th among 19 candidates in council elections. The top nine vote-getters are elected to the group.
Last year Flynn finished in 11th place — ahead of three incumbents who lost reelection — among 22 candidates.
Flynn is excited about the new position.
"When we see the high level of partisan politics in our national and state governments, I appreciate the independent, creative leadership Charter fosters in our city," he said in a prepared statement. "The Charter Committee will continue to focus on bringing the best governance to Cincinnati, including thoughtful changes to the city's Charter, and to support a budget and budget process which serves the best interests of the citizens of Cincinnati."
Formed in 1924, the Charter Committee helped end the corrupt political machine operated by "Boss" George Cox, a Republican who dominated City Hall and local politics, arranging tasks like fixing tax rates for friends and contributors.
Charter successfully pushed to create the city manager form of government, which was designed to depoliticize the daily administrative tasks of municipal government.

Freedom of Speech isn't the issue. The issue is that kids will be listening to these songs and playing them, and parents are (overly, some might say) sensitive about what kids listen to.
From that subset, someone will get the lovely idea to sue over a song not being family friendly.

Well, if it doesn't export, I don't think that would be the reason. Keep in mind that "Trapped Under Ice" doesn't export from GH:WT, and we already have a whole Metallic game anyway.
Licensing for exporting is a very strange thing. Like how Monsoon wasn't export-ready for RB1 EU, yet "Ready, Set, Go!" was released a while after the whole RB1 export scenario. Or how "Let's Dance" by David Bowie exports from Band Hero to Guitar Hero 5, but how "Fame" by David Bowie doesn't export from Guitar Hero 5 to Band Hero.

By Steve DeVane Staff writer
PINEHURST - The Village Council decided Wednesday to talk to a consultant about how best to manage growth in a 19-acre section of Pinehurst that was targeted for development nine years ago.
Council members agreed at a work session to ask Ian Colgan to come to their Nov. 13 meeting to discuss the area known as Village Place between the Village Center and the park where several government buildings are located.
Colgan oversees consulting services for Development Concepts Inc., a planning and development services firm in Indianapolis.
Council members decided to invite Colgan to their meeting after talking with Pat Corso, executive director of Moore County Partners in Progress. Corso said he had talked with Colgan about Moore County.
Colgan has worked with officials in Chapel Hill and Durham on projects there, Corso said. Colgan works on plans for development, then helps find developers to fit the projects, he said.
Bruce Gould, the village's senior planner, said Village Place, which was formerly called the NewCore area, was identified as an area for development in the village's 2003 Comprehensive Long Range Plan. A plan for development in the area was adopted in 2006, with revisions in 2008 and 2010.
The area has not changed much since 2006, Gould said.
In other action, the council amended an agreement with the U.S. Golf Association for use of village property during the 2014 U.S. Open tournaments.
The U.S. Open and U.S. Women's Open will be played on the No. 2 Course at Pinehurst Resort & Country Club in consecutive weeks in June 2014. It will be the first time two national championships have been played in consecutive weeks on the same course.
The Village Council amended a license agreement with the USGA during its work session Wednesday.
Village Manager Andy Wilkison said the amendment increases village property available to the USGA. The agreement says the USGA will pay the village $700,000 to use about 75 acres.
The USGA still has to approve the amendment.
Wilkison said agreement is similar to one the village and the USGA had in 2005, when the U.S. Open was last played in Pinehurst. The USGA paid the village about $466,000 then for the one-week tournament, he said. The association also contributed about $100,000 to the library and the arboretum in the village, he said.
Wilkison said the USGA will use several barns to store equipment months before the tournaments.
Some of the land will be used for parking. USGA officials expect as many as 400,000 people to attend the two tournaments.
