Australian Cruising
Sail-World.com : Planning well advanced for Sydney International Boat Show
Planning well advanced for Sydney International Boat Show

SIBS, in case you don't recognise the initials, stands for Sydney International Boat Show and although it may seem to be some distance into the future, planning for the exhibition is well advanced.
The 2011 show is scheduled for five excitement-packed days, July 28 – August 1 and that's just 99 days away.
As usual, Australia's largest recreational boating extravaganza will make its home at its now traditional venue, Darling Harbour, which has played host to the show for the past 22-years.
The cavernous halls of the Darling Harbour Exhibition Centre will be packed with millions of dollars worth of boats, engines, marine electronics, fishing tackle, scuba and water ski equipment and every type of boating accessory imaginable.
Virtually alongside the centre, the Cockle Bay Marina will again be a show highlight with everything from sleek sport boats to world-circling megayachts on display on the largest floating marina to feature at an Australian boat show.
The Sydney International Boat Show is owned and organised by the Boating Industry Association (BIA) of NSW and has cemented itself as the nation's leading recreational boating exhibition, generally resulting in a multi-million dollar boost to the marine industry.
In excess of 350 exhibitors will be on hand to display their products and their services
to an estimated 80,000-plus show visitors.
The BIA will follow its tried and true show format of offering those show visitors entertainment and education; boating enthusiasts can check out all the new products at one single venue while those yet to become boating enthusiasts can learn about the boating lifestyle and its appeal.
Such is the level of entertainment and 'shows within the show' that have been organised by the BIA it is virtually impossible to see all the exhibition has to offer in a single day.
So far, the following attractions have been confirmed;
• The Nautilus Marine Insurance Clinic
• The Better Boating Lounge
• Daily Musto Fashion Parades
• The Walk of Fame (on the Cockle Bay Marina)
• Discover Boating Tours of Sydney Harbour
• Historic Boats Display
• The Photography Exhibit and Competition
• Club Marine Cooking Demonstrations
Knowing the BIA and do not be surprised if there's not more to come.
Domenic Genua, marketing and event manager of the BIA, is always striving for attractions that will broaden the show's appeal/\.
'Entertainment and education factors introduced to the show have come essentially as a result of visitor feedback which we monitor very closely,' he explained.
'However, the real 'heroes' of the show are the boats, big boats, small boats, sailboats, power boats, all manner of boats, for the Sydney International Boat Show's very essence of meaning is that it is the best place to see boats and to buy boats.
'Name a factor of recreational boating, be it cruising, water skiing, scuba diving, sport fishing, sailing, kayaking or canoeing, the Sydney International Boat Show will have it covered,' he added.
Mr Genua believes that in its Darling Harbour venue the Sydney International Boat Show has a location that is the envy of every other show in Australia.
'We are smack bang in the centre of the business hub of Australia's largest city, an easy downhill stroll from the Central Business District and set amongst some of the city's most popular attractions, including Star City Casino, IMAX, the Sydney Aquarium, The Sydney Wildlife Park and surrounded by restaurants that cater for every taste,' he declared.
The 2011 Sydney International Boat Show will open at 10am on Thursday, July 28; hours are 10am to 8pm daily (within the exhibition halls) and 10am to 6pm on the Cockle Bay Marina.

To coordinate project activities and share project data, the engineering and environmental services firm Golder Associates deployed Microsoft SharePoint 2010, centralized in its Seattle-area data center.
But despite installing WAN optimization appliances at every one of 160 global offices, it was taking way too long to download SharePoint pages in remote locations like Asia, Australia and South Africa, especially when they contained a lot of content. To Golder's frustration, the slow page loads were discouraging the use of SharePoint.

EconomyTaipei recognized for water-saving effortsWu Yang-lung, director of Taipei Water Department and Chen Wei-jen, deputy mayor of Taipei City Government, show off the IWA Project Innovation Award trophy July 3 in Singapore. (CNA)
A Taipei City household water conservation program will represent East Asia in a global competition on water management, according to the Taipei City Government July 3. The Taipei Water Department initiative has won out in the Marketing and Communication category in the latest edition of the International Water Association's Project Innovation Awards, ousting fellow competitors in the East Asia region including Busan, Seoul and Tokyo, according to the TWD. Since 2007, Taipei has reduced household water consumption 15 percent, from 263 liters to 224 liters per day, TWD Director Wu Yang-lung said. "Given that Taipei has a relatively low water price compared to neighboring cities in the East Asia region, this is quite a remarkable achievement," he added. Taipei's price of NT$8.21 (US$0.28) per metric ton is one-fifth that of Tokyo and half that of Singapore, sources said. As household consumption accounts for over 70 percent of the city's water use, the municipal government has introduced a variety of campaigns targeting families, including regular checkups for leakage, community competitions and educational programs at local schools. Taipei Deputy Mayor Chen Wei-jen, who together with Wu accepted the East Asia award in Singapore, said the city gets a lot of rainfall, but storage is a problem. "Under the extreme weather conditions we now face, if citizens don't conserve water, shortages could occur at any time." The city's program will be competing with other winning regional projects from Asia Pacific, Europe and West Asia, and North America for the Global Awards at the 2012 IWA World Water Congress in Busan, South Korea, in September.

Artists Come To The Rescue For Two Local Schools' Art Program With Public Auction Titled "ON A ROLL"
Friday, December 3rd, 2010The public art auction being held at the Stone Dragon Studio (Inside Art Gallery on Stone/Speedway)"ON A SMALL ROLL" during December was the idea developed by Moira Geoffrion, a U. of A. Fine Arts Professor. The concept refers to the fact that if one takes small steps creatively, that one can get "on a roll" and move towards creative and intellectual growth, and hopefully towards college studies in the arts.
Art teachers from Cholla High School and Pistor Middle School have art classes but do not have art rooms and very little funds for art supplies. This fundraising art auction is intended for these existing classes and for special workshops for local artists working with school kids. Several art students at Cholla are quite excited about this exhibition/fundraiser, and have donated art for this auction.
Several local professional artists, as well as art faculty and art students from the U. of A., and professional artists nationally and internationally, have donated art for this auction. This will be a great opportunity to buy some great art and help school programs that have had substantial cuts due to the poor economy.
This fundraising activity is a month-long silent auction to support the two Tucson school programs. The auction actually opened December 1, 2010 and will run though December 30th.The official opening reception will be Saturday December 4 from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm. Refreshments will be served. The closing reception will be December 30th from 4-7 pm. Winning bidders will pick up their art at that time and pay for it.
Winners not present will be notified by either phone or email.
AUCTION is open to the public. Bidders need to register for a bidding number at the gallery and will be given a Bid # to use on the Bid Sheets. Bidders can come by any time the studio gallery is open to check the bids sheets and place bids.
Location: Stone Dragon Studio (inside Art Gallery)
1122 N. Stone Ave. (N.E. corner of Stone/Speedway)
Tucson, AZ 85705 Phone: 520-624-7099
HOURS: Wednesday – Saturday 11:00 am – 4:00 pm.
NOTE: Gallery will not be open Friday December 24 or December 25.

When Rand McNally and USA Today announced they were searching for the Most Fun Small Town in the U.S., we immediately thought of ... well, us.
Not to be too full of ourselves, but over the past 65 years, we've pretty well figured out how to have...fun.
When Santa Claus was named a Finalist Town and we were notified that our pair of judges was a Mother/Daughter Team from Denver, it simply jingled our bells.
Traveling Jules & Joan came to see us last week. What a blast!
Joan was a great sport, valiantly trying to keep up with her energetic daughter.
She impressed us all by riding Voyage with Jules (who was delighted to learn she has great coaster hair) right after enjoying a Thanksgiving feast at our Plymouth Rock Cafe.
...and from Voyage, on to Wildebeest.
Here's their Santa Claus, Christmas in July video showing our two new friends enjoying all the fun our town offers:

Paula Patton Movies
Even though bright-eyed actress
Paula Patton
began performing as a little girl, putting plays in her own back yard, the shy young woman didn't realize she wanted a career onscreen for many years to come. In high school, she became involved in a PBS series that took young, aspiring filmmakers on a trip across the country to work on their own documentaries, and when
graduated high school, she continued to pursue her interest in working behind the camera by enrolling the film school at the University of Southern California. After graduation, she worked as a production assistant, nurturing her goal of producing her own movie, but something felt missing. Finally,
realized that her passion was to be on the other side of the camera, so she enrolled in acting classes and strove toward her new goal in full force.
Within a few years,

in the horror movie

When the mischievous antics of a precocious 12-year-old girl result in the outcome of the United States presidential election hinging on the vote of her apathetic, likable loser of a father, the man who thought that life had long since passed him by is reluctantly thrust into the national spotlight in this political-themed comedy starring Kevin Costner. Bud Johnson (Costner) is your typical American -- a simple man and loving father who never would have thought he had the power to change the world. Though when election day finally arrives and Bud prepares to cast his ballot, his overachieving daughter Molly proves to be the catalyst for a stunning series of events that place the fate of the free world in the hands of a man more comfortable slinging cases of beer -- her father. The two candidates are portrayed by Dennis Hopper and Kelsey Grammer, with Nathan Lane and Stanley Tucci as their campaign managers. George Lopez also stars as a local TV-station manager who has to deal with the political factions as they set up camp in the small town. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Kiefer Sutherland stars as an NYPD detective-turned-security guard who discovers something sinister lurking in the mirrors of a fire-damaged department store in Haute Tension writer/director Alexandre Aja's menacing study in the origins of evil. It's been just about a year since mercurial police detective Ben Carson (Sutherland) was suspended from the NYPD for the fatal shooting of an undercover officer, and ever since that fateful day he's been locked in a self-destructive spiral of anger and alcoholism. Increasingly isolated from his wife and kids, Ben spends most nights crashed-out at his sister Angela's (Amy Smart) apartment in Queens. But Ben hasn't given up hope just yet, and in order to get his life back together and prove that he's still capable of supporting his family he takes a job as the night watchman at the Mayflower department store. The Mayflower used to be a lavish symbol of inner-city prosperity, that is, until a raging inferno gutted the building while claiming numerous lives in the process. These days, the Mayflower is a scorched reminder of human misery, the ornate mirrors therein reflecting a suffering so profound that it begins to wear on Ben's already-fragile psyche. Not only that, but whatever force dwells behind the shimmering glass seems to have gained the power to alter reality as well.
After Ben gazes into the mirrors and sees a vision of himself being relentlessly tortured, he is horrified to experience violent convulsions, spontaneous bleeding, and frightening asphyxiation. And while his sister is always willing to lend a sympathetic ear, she chalks the anomalies up to an unusually potent mix of stress and anxiety. Unfortunately for Ben, his estranged wife, Amy (Paula Patton), isn't nearly as forgiving. A prosaic NYPD medical examiner who has seen her fair share of tragedy, Amy fears that Ben's erratic behavior could be placing their children in danger. Later, as Ben begins to draw connections between his increasingly gruesome visions and a former Mayflower security guard who vanished without a trace, he begins to suspect that an unimaginable evil is using the mirrors as a gateway into the real world, and that his family is in mortal danger from forces beyond their realm of understanding. Perhaps if he Ben can manage to convince Amy that their children's lives are at risk, he can summon the courage to face the greatest evil he has ever known. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Adrenaline loving director Tony Scott teams with iconic action producer Jerry Bruckheimer for this high flung sci-fi action thriller concerning a New Orleans based maverick ATF agent named Doug Carlin (Denzel Washington) who is brought in on a top secret government program to catch the terrorist (Jim Caviezel) responsible for a ferry bombing that kills hundreds. Able to do what most law enforcement officers only dream of, Carlin is now able to look back in time at the perpetrator's movements, and at the life of the innocent woman whose death would set the events into motion. Carlin's instincts tell him that something is amiss, however, and while the government agent who tapped him for the job (Val Kilmer) and the team of ultra-cool scientists who run the project (Adam Goldberg, Erika Alexander) tell him one story about the quantum physics behind this marvel of technology, the hotshot agent suspects that there is a greater power at their fingertips--one that might not just solve the crime at hand, but prevent it. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Damn, getting close to Jan. 9. After reading about sapphire's leaked specs for their upcoming non-reference card, Asus comes up with an overclocking feat featuring (yet again) an HD7970. This card really is an overclocking beast. The 28nm process really is going to make this card so competitive (My HD 5850 is gonna get replaced by one of these!). Anyways, can wait for Jan.9 and also Happy New Year to all TPU'ers out there. Here's the link for those who are interested http://www.legitreviews.com/news/12109/
Makes me wonder if I'm going to buy a reference card or wait for the higher clocked ones. Starting to think that Amd limited the stock clocks in preparation for Nvidia's high end Kepler. When Kepler arrives Amd and its partners will release cards with clocks maybe 1.3ghz and up even. Given the high overclocks attainable with the reference card without voltage tweaking, these stupendous speeds are achievable (given sufficient cooling). Hopefully those cards that has those clocks won't be cherry picked.
Considering the 1335 MHz Sapphire card rumour, this is killer. That's nearly 400 MHz over the "launch" cards. I think the last gen was around 1500 MHz on LN2? A 200 MHz bump under cold is pretty good.
Not really. There's a news article on the front page here. I don't ahve time to "research" rumours ATM.
Mutated cats are my thing According to Legitreviews the HD7950 would be released on Feb. instead of Jan. 9. I was hoping to get the HD7950 because you'll never know it may be unlockable just like the HD6950. That one would be a really sweet deal considering the performance increase you'll be getting. Well, wishful thinking I guess for now.
I think this means don't pay extra for factory oc'd versions, as you know they are oc'ing beasts. I wonder if any randomly picked 7970 card will oc the same as this on LN2?
Thats a new vantage single card WR according to HWBot. Quad GTX580's is only 75K (overall WR) wonder if a multi card setup could take that down. http://hwbot.org/submission/2221249...age___performance_geforce_gtx_580_48002_marks
Well, LN2 overclock score is pointless for a average user. Even watercooling is pretty rare for gaming. Sad but true, full-cover water block + good water loop is too darn expensive for average Joe. So we are back to overclocking with stock cooling and that always sucks, man - no mater what. There is no such thing as stable overclock with stock cooling. If there is - it will be 50MHz as always was, not big enough to worth mentioning.
Not only too expensive, but a lot of hassle. I had a decent water loop and all that stuff, including the case, is now in the garage gathering dust. It's just too damn much work. I like to play games, not spend my time under my desk tinkering around with the water loop and whatnot. I'm sure there are others like me.
Well, if you got the money full cover waterblock and 3x120mm radiator is the right way to overclock a GPU. Air coolers just don't cut. It doesn't matter how many heat pipes they have. They simply can't remove +200Watt heat fast enough . I have Accelero S1 and 2x120mm fans on my HD5870. It seams a great improvement over stock cooling, but actually that don't give me even 10MHz more overclock , than stock .
The stock cooling on the 5870's is not all that bad. Very loud when turned up but they do remove the heat rather well..
It turns out, that when you rump up the speed to 40-50% and above, fan bearings fails quickly. It is some chippo NTK fan, model FD9238H12S. Air cooling lacks the needed thermal capacity to accommodate sudden spikes in GPU activity, when it is operating at high load. Simply when the radiator is heated up it stops being responsive enough, where thermal capacity of a water loop is enormous. On air you can have moderate GPU temperature at 50C and in a split second - FPS spike, overheating and BSOD.
I disagree I have a cooler with 5 large heat-pipes and a very dense fin array and not only can I over-clock a lot more I can also run a lot more voltage through whilst keeping temperatures way below spec. My last 6870 could do 1ghz @ 1.3v on stock, it could do 1.1ghz same voltage with upgraded cooling or it could do 1ghz on the stock 1.175v That's a fair ole difference, especially the voltage requirement. This 6870 unfortunately is not as good an over clocker though : [ If you don't get much more of an over-clock with your upgraded cooling perhaps you should try lowering the voltage instead.
Radeon HD 7970 Quad-fire @ 1700Mhz http://translate.google.com/transla...-core-8000mhz-memory-speed-me-igro-azoto.html Intel Core 7 3960x @ 5642Mhz 3D Mark Vantage = P83761 3D Mark 11 = P32728 3D Mark 11 = X17432
every one of my cards have overclocked well, some like my 5870 that can reach 1.1Ghz at 1.4 volts and still run cool, and some like my X800GTO that has a custom BIOS. http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/AMD/HD_7970/31.html Every site got good clocking cards.

Mel Gibson Movies
Despite a thick Australian accent in some of his earlier films, actor
Mel Gibson
was born in Peeksill, NY, to Irish Catholic parents on January 3rd, 1956. One of eleven children,
didn't set foot in Australia until 1968, and only developed an Aussie accent after his classmates teased him for his American tongue.
Mel Gibson
's looks have certainly helped him develop a largely female following similar to the equally rugged
Harrison Ford
, but since his 1976 screen debut in
Summer City
has been recognized as a critical as well as physiological success.
Though he had, at one point, set his sights on journalism,
caught the acting bug by the time he had reached college age, and studied at the National Institute of Dramatic Art in Sydney, Australia, despite what he describes as a crippling ordeal with stage fright. Luckily, this was something he overcame relatively quickly --
was still a student when he filmed
Summer City
and it didn't take long before he had found work playing supporting roles for the South Australia Theatre Company after his graduation.
By 1979,
had already demonstrated a unique versatility. In the drama
, a then 22-year-old
played the role of a mildly retarded handy man well enough to win him a Sammy award -- one of the Australian entertainment industry's highest accolades -- while his leather clad portrayal of a post-apocalyptic cop in
Mad Max
helped the young actor gain popularity with a very different type of audience.
wouldn't become internationally famous, however, until after his performance in
Mad Max 2
(1981), one of the few sequels to have proved superior to its predecessor.
In 1983,
collaborated with director
Peter Weir
for the second time (though it was largely overlooked during the success of
Mad Max 2
starred in
's powerful WWI drama
in 1981) for
The Year of Living Dangerously
, in which he played a callous reporter responsible for covering a bloody Indonesian coup. Shortly afterwards,
made his Hollywood debut in
The Bounty
with Oscar-winner
Anthony Hopkins
, and starred opposite
Sissy Spacek
The River
during the same year. He would also star in
Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome
(1985) alongside singer
Tina Turner
After the third installment to the
Mad Max
took a two-year break, only to reappear opposite
Danny Glover
in director
Richard Donner
's smash hit
Lethal Weapon
. The role featured
as Martin Riggs, a volatile police officer reeling from the death of his wife, and cemented a spot as one of Hollywood's premier action stars. Rather than letting himself become typecast, however,
would surprise critics and audiences alike when he accepted the title role in
Franco Zeffirelli
(1990). Though his performance earned mixed reviews, he was applauded for taking on such a famously tragic script.
In the early '90s,
founded ICON Productions, and through it made his directorial debut with 1993's The Man Without a Face. The film, which also starred
as a horrifically burned teacher harboring a secret, achieved only middling box-office success, though it was considered a well-wrought effort for a first-time director.
would fare much better in 1994 when he rejoined
Richard Donner
in the movie adaptation of
; however, it would be another year before
's penchant for acting, directing, and producing was given its due. In 1995,
swept the Oscars with
, his epic account of 13th century Scottish leader William Wallace's lifelong struggle to forge an independent nation. Later that year, he lent his vocal talents -- surprising many with his ability to carry a tune -- for the part of John Smith in Disney's animated feature
Through the '90s,
's popularity and reputation continued to grow, thanks to such films as
(1996) and
Conspiracy Theory
(1997). In 1998,
further increased this popularity with the success of two films,
Lethal Weapon 4
. More success followed in 2000 due to the actor's lead role as an animated rooster in
Nick Park
Peter Lord
's hugely acclaimed
Chicken Run
, and to his work as the titular hero of
Roland Emmerich
's blockbuster period epic The Patriot (2000). After taking up arms in the battlefield of a more modern era in the Vietman drama
We Were Soldiers
in 2002,
would step in front of the cameras once more for Sixth Sense director
M. Night Shyamalan
's dramatic sci-fi thriller
(also 2002). The film starred
as a grieving patriarch whose rural existence was even further disturbed by the discovery of several crop circles on his property.
would return to more familiar territory in
Randall Wallace
We Were Soldiers
-- a 2002 war drama which found
in the role of Lt. Col. Hal Moore, commander of the First Battalion, Seventh Cavalry -- the same regiment so fatefully led by George Armstrong Custer. In 2003,
starred alongside
Robert Downey Jr.
Robin Wright-Penn
in a remake of
The Singing Detective
The year 2004 saw
return to the director's chair for
The Passion of The Christ
. Funded by 25 million of
's own dollars, the religious drama generated controversy amid cries of anti-Semitism. Despite the debates surrounding the film -- and the fact that all of the dialogue was spoken in Latin and Aramaic -- it nearly recouped its budget in the first day of release.
The actor stepped behind the camera again in 2006 with the Mayan tale Apocalypto and was preparing to product a TV movie about the Holocaust, but by this time, public attention was not pointed at Gibson's career choices. That summer, he was pulled over for drunk driving at which time he made extremely derogatory comments about Jewish people to the arresting officer. When word of Gibson's drunken, bigoted tirade made it to the press, the speculation of the actor's anti-Semitic leanings that had circulated because of the choices he'd made in his depiction of the crucifixion in Passion of the Christ seemed confirmed. Gibson's father being an admitted holocaust denier hadn't helped matters and now it seemed that no PR campaign could help. Gibson publicly apologized, expressed extreme regret for his comments, and checked himself into rehab. Still, the plug was pulled on Gibson's Holocaust project and the filmmaker's reputation was irreparably tarnished. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Created from footage captured during the filming of the PBS series Carrier, Another Day in Paradise explores the struggle waged by three men in various stages of fatherhood to serve their country while living and working in the harsh environment of an aircraft carrier, and constantly thinking of the loved ones they left behind. Doug Booher, Randy Brock, and Chris Altice are three of 5,000 sailors living onboard the USS Nimitz. Summoned from their families for a six-month deployment to the Persian Gulf, these men may perform disparate tasks yet they all have one thing in common -- they're all either parents, or expecting a child. By delving deep into the personal lives of all three, the filmmakers raise numerous questions about their work onboard the Nimitz, and the role of the Navy in times of war. A fighter pilot in the famed "Black Aces" squadron, Lt. Booher is attempting to balance his life and military career, no simple task for a man with a newborn back home. Meanwhile, tough-talking Gunnery Sergeant Brock repairs planes for the Marine squadron "The Red Devils" while pondering what kind of father he will be to the son who is born during his deployment. Abandoned at age three by his own parents, a pair of carnival workers, Sergeant Brock doesn't want to be an absent father. And while 21-year-old ordnance man Altice would rather be partying in a frat house than arming military jets for war, his responsibilities back home are about to take a giant leap; just before he left for the Persian Gulf, his new girlfriend revealed that she was pregnant. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Payback: Straight Up
Seven years after seeing his original vision butchered under studio interference as well as his star's, director Brian Helgeland finally was given the chance to piece together his director's cut under the name Payback: Straight Up. Along with reinstating the original third act, this version represents a return to the gritty world of '70s filmmaking that was the groundwork of the production up until Paramount got cold feet and ordered extensive reshoots. The story centers on Porter (Mel Gibson), a thief that is pulled into a heist by his old friend, Val (Brian De Palma regular Gregg Henry), who plans a double cross with Porter's wife, Lynn (Deborah Kara Unger) after showing her a photo of her husband in the arms of another girl (Maria Bello). As they're stealing $130,000 in laundered drug money from Chinese Triads, Lynn shoots Porter in the back and speeds away with Val and money in tow. What they didn't know is that Porter would come back looking for his cut, which has been used to pay off Val's mob debts so he could return to "The Syndicate." Helgeland, the screenwriter for L.A. Confidential and Mystic River, made his directing debut with this adaptation of the novel The Hunter by Donald E. Westlake writing under the pseudonym, Richard Stark. The same novel served as the basis for John Boorman's Point Blank starring Lee Marvin. This version excises Kris Kristofferson's performance entirely and features a new score by Scott Stambler. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, Rovi

As the foundation of the Mayan civilization begins to crumble, one man's previously idyllic existence is forever changed when he is chosen as a sacrifice needed to appease the gods in director Mel Gibson's mythic, end-times adventure. The Mayan kingdom is at the absolute height of opulence and power, but leaders are convinced that unless more temples are constructed and more human sacrifices made, the crops, and ultimately the people, will suffer. Jaguar Paw (Rudy Youngblood) is a peaceful hunter from a remote forest tribe whose life is about to be changed forever. When Jaguar Paw's village is raided and he is prepared as a sacrifice that the Mayan deities have demanded, the brave young hunter is forced to navigate a horrific new world of fear and oppression. Fearlessly determined to escape his captors and save his family from a harrowing demise, Jaguar Paw prepares to risk it all in one final, desperate attempt to preserve his dying way of life. However, few who have seen the sacrificial alter of the Mayans have managed to live to see another day. Now, in order to rescue his pregnant wife and young son, Jaguar Paw will have to elude the most powerful warriors of the Mayan kingdom while using his vast knowledge of the forest to turn the tables on those who would rather see him dead than set free. Inspired by such ancient Mayan texts as the Popul Vuh, Apocalypto marks a comprehensive collaboration between director Gibson, Cambridge-educated screenwriter Farhad Safinia, and world-renowned archeologist and Mayan culture expert Dr. Richard D. Hansen -- whose services as a special consultant on the film lent the production an unprecedented degree of historical accuracy. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Filmmaker Chris Payne explores the many factors that played into the ultimate failure of the electric car to catch on with consumers, even as gas prices began to skyrocket, in a thoughtful meditation on the increasingly important role that renewable energy plays in modern society. Introduced as a means of providing an alternative to increasing oil consumption and reducing pollution in 1996, the electric car was an all-but-forgotten memory only a decade later -- but why? Through interviews with consumer advocacy experts, automotive industry experts, and oil industry heavyweights, Payne paints a thought-provoking picture of a culture whose aversion to change and reliance on dwindling resources may be rooted in the financial concerns of a wealthy few, and may also be leading consumers down a troubling path. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Leonard Cohen is widely regarded as one of the finest and most influential poets and songwriters of his generation, a writer whose artful mélange of love, eros, and despair has earned him a passionate international following and the respect and admiration of artists ranging from R.E.M. to Johnny Cash. In 2005, music producer Hal Wilner staged an all-star tribute concert in Australia in which a handful of major artists offered their interpretations of Cohen's songs, including Nick Cave, Jarvis Cocker of Pulp, Rufus Wainwright, Beth Orton, Kate and Anna Mcgarrigle, and many more. Leonard Cohen I'm Your Man includes highlights from this concert and thoughts on Cohen and his work from the participants as well as an extensive interview with Leonard Cohen himself as he talks in detail about his life and his art. The film also includes a special performance of "Tower of Song," in which Cohen is accompanied by U2. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A pair of filmmakers explore the issues of faith in the 21st century during the shooting of a controversial retelling of the life of Jesus Christ in this documentary. Francesco Cabras and Alberto Molinari are documentarians who also work as actors, and the two men had small roles in Mel Gibson's film The Passion of the Christ. During the course of filming in Southern Italy, Cabras and Molinari brought a small camera crew to the set and conducted interviews with members of the cast and crew (including Gibson, Jim Caviezel, and Monica Bellucci) in which they asked a few simple yet revealing questions about faith. As actors, historical advisors, local extras, grips, and others ponder questions such as "Who is God to you?," "What happens after life?," and "If you were born on the other side of the world, would you have the same religion?," the subjects attempt to explain their own perspectives on faith and their personal relationship with the Lord as well as the circumstances that led them to their current beliefs. The Big Question received its North American premier at the 2004 AFI Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Mel Gibson's well-publicized production The Passion of the Christ concerns the last 12 hours in the life of Jesus of Nazareth. The dialogue is spoken in the ancient Aramaic language, along with Latin and Hebrew. In the Garden of Gethsemane near the Mount of Olives, Jesus (James Caviezel) is betrayed by Judas Iscariot (Luca Lionello). Jesus is condemned to death for blasphemy and brought before Pontius Pilate (Hristo Naumov Shopov), the Roman governor of Judea, for sentencing. The roaring crowd demand his death, so Pilate orders his crucifixion. Jesus is severely beaten and made to carry his cross up to Golgotha, the hill outside Jerusalem, where he is nailed to the cross. Romanian theatrical actress Maia Morgenstern plays Mary, Mother of God, and Italian superstar Monica Bellucci plays Mary Magdalene. Amid much controversy involving Gibson and various religious organizations, The Passion of the Christ received an international theatrical release in February of 2004. In March 2005, Gibson released an unrated version of the film, dubbed The Passion Recut, that eliminated five to six minutes of the more graphic scenes of flogging and crucifixion. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi

Following the smash hit The Sixth Sense (1999) and the under-performing follow-up Unbreakable (2000), directing phenom M. Night Shyamalan returns to the summer box office landscape that served as the backdrop for his cinematic breakthrough. In Signs, another paranormal outing for the writer-director, Shyamalan explores the eerie implications of a 500-foot crop circle that mysteriously appears on the Bucks County, PA farm of reverend Graham Hess (Mel Gibson). As Hess and his family (Joaquin Phoenix, Rory Culkin, Abigail Breslin) try to take stock of what the sign means, and how its message incorporates into their faith, they start to get the feeling they are not alone in the fields behind their house. Shyamalan re-teams with producers Frank Marshall, Sam Mercer and Kathleen Kennedy, and produces the project in association with his Blinding Edge Pictures banner and Touchstone Pictures. ~ Derek Armstrong, Rovi

Screenwriter Randall Wallace, a specialist in sweeping historical epics, steps behind the camera for this fact-based Vietnam War drama that reunites him with his Braveheart (1995) star Mel Gibson. Gibson is Lt. Col. Hal Moore, commander of the First Battalion, Seventh Cavalry, the same regiment fatefully led by George Armstrong Custer. As part of the Pleiku Campaign of late 1965, Moore is assigned to an action at Landing Zone X-Ray in the Drang Valley, an area that would come to be known as the "The Valley of Death." Moore soon finds himself and his men contained to an area about the size of a football field, surrounded by more than 2,000 enemy troops and engaged in the first major battle of the war. Heroism becomes the order of the day as men like Moore, chopper pilot Bruce Crandall (Greg Kinnear), and Lt. Henry Herrick (Marc Blucas) refuse to yield, in spite of heavy losses of life. The film co-stars Madeleine Stowe, Chris Klein, Keri Russell, and Sam Elliott. We Were Soldiers is based on the book We Were Soldiers Once...and Young by Lt. Gen. Harold G.

The Three Stooges
The comedy team that made the phrase "nyuk nyuk nyuk" part of the American vocabulary gets the full biographical treatment in this made-for-TV feature. The Three Stooges opens in 1959, as a TV executive tries to persuade Moe Howard (Paul Ben-Victor) to reunite with his former onscreen partners to publicize the television premiere of a package of Three Stooges classic comedy shorts. Howard then flashes back on his long and remarkable career, as vaudeville star Ted Healy (Marton Csokas) assembles Moe Howard, sibling Shemp Howard (John Kassir), and Larry Fine (Evan Handler) as "stooges" for his stage act. As Moe, Shemp, and Larry gain popularity, a jealous Healy forces them to strike out on their own, but after many grueling years on the road, Columbia Pictures head Harry Cohn (Linal Haft) offers them a chance to star in their own series of two-reel comedies. But Shemp, always stage-shy, backs out of the group, and his brother Jerome (Michael Chiklis) -- aka "Curly" -- takes over, and the Three Stooges become a sensation. However, success proves to be a bumpy road for the group, as a bad deal with Columbia prevents them from reaping the full benefits of their success, and a serious illness forces Curly to quit, bringing Shemp back into the act. Mel Gibson was an executive producer for this biopic, which first aired on ABC on April 24, 2000. Incidentally, this wasn't Michael Chiklis' first time playing an icon of American comedy; he portrayed John Belushi in the 1989 drama Wired. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Legendary filmmaker Wim Wenders returns to the screen with this loosely structured murder mystery. The Million Dollar Hotel unites Wender's obsession with cool music, lost souls, and American trash culture. Set in 2001, the film opens with Tom Tom (Jeremy Davies) taking a flying leap off the roof of the Million Dollar Hotel, an ironically titled dive in the seedy section of L.A. Told in an extended flashback, Tom Tom recounts the murder investigation of a down-and-out artist and son of a media mogul, Izzy Goldkiss (Tim Roth), who also fell off the hotel. FBI special agent Skinner (none other than Mel Gibson), sporting a neck brace, looks into the death only to discover that the building is teeming with weirdos and losers. There is Vivien (Amanda Plummer), who claims to be the fiancée of the rock star; Geronimo (Jimmy Smits), a huckster trying to make a buck by selling Izzy's abstract painting; Eloise (Milla Jovovich), a burned out prostitute with a passion for intellectual literature; and Dixie (Peter Stormare), who swears up and down that he is the fifth Beatle. As the film progresses, Skinner proves to be just as much of a freak as the hotel tenets -- he was born with a third arm that was surgically removed from his back. Just as in his Until the End of the World (1991), Wenders features a fantastic soundtrack including songs from Bono, Daniel Lanois, and Brian Eno. The Million Dollar Hotel opened the 2000 Berlin Film Festival. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

A man finds himself getting an unexpected crash course in the psychology of contemporary women in this romantic comedy. Nick Marshall (Mel Gibson) is a successful advertising executive living in Chicago who has long fancied himself a ladies' man, though he has precious little understanding of women beyond figuring out how to seduce them. One day, Nick receives a substantial electric shock in an accident in his bathroom; while he's not seriously injured, when he comes to, he discovers something remarkable has happened -- he can suddenly hear what women are thinking. At first, Nick finds himself learning all sorts of things he didn't want to know, but he also realizes how this can be used to his advantage -- especially after his old boss, Dan Wanamaker (Alan Alda) is replaced by a woman, Darcy Maguire (Helen Hunt). But Nick begins to feel differently about his unusual gift when he discovers Darcy is infatuated with him, and he finds himself falling for her. What Women Want also features Bette Midler as Nick's analyst, Delta Burke and Valerie Perrine as two of his co-workers, and Marisa Tomei as one of Nick's significant others. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Aardman Animations, the British clay-animation studio that created a cult sensation (and won three Academy awards) with its short subjects featuring Wallace and Gromit, presents its first feature film, a mixture of comedy and adventure. Mrs. Tweedy (voice of Miranda Richardson) operates a chicken farm, where most of the birds have resigned themselves to a short and uneventful life of producing eggs and ending up as the main course of someone's Sunday dinner. But when Rocky (voice of Mel Gibson), a rooster from America, arrives on the farm, things begin to change. Rocky soon finds romance with a hen named Ginger (voice of Julia Sawalha) who longs for a better life and has been trying to find a way out of the farm for some time; together they devise a plan to escape to freedom. However, Rocky and Ginger soon find themselves racing against the clock when Mrs. Tweedy decides it's time to turn the entire flock into chicken pies. Nick Park, director of the Wallace and Gromit shorts, co-directed Chicken Run with Peter Lord, who produced several Aardman projects and created animation for the TV series Pee-Wee's Playhouse. The voice cast also includes Jane Horrocks, Phil Daniels, and Timothy Spall. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Rising material costs, expensive truck fuel, increased hauling fees and diminishing revenues are literally putting Nodaway County between a rock and a hard place when it comes to graveling approximately 1,000 miles of rural roads.
South District Commissioner Robert Stiens — the County Commission's point man for transportation issues — said last week that the squeeze, precipitated by high rock prices and other factors, means the county and its 15 townships may soon be forced to look for new revenue sources.
"We're going to have to work together to solve this problem," said Stiens, who noted that one area quarry has raised its gravel price from $10 to $13 a ton. Other local suppliers are charging more as well, though the increases are smaller.
In an effort to get a handle on the problem, the commission plans to meet with representatives from Nodaway's 15 townships on March 20.
Though many town dwellers may think Nodaway County is responsible for maintaining gravel and dirt roads, that is only partly the case, since Nodaway is one of only 22 Missouri counties out of 114 still operating under the township system.
Subordinate to but separate from a county, townships are remnants of a time when most Americans grew crops and livestock for a living, and relatively isolated communities of small farmers took it upon themselves to keep roads open and bridges in good repair.
As has been the case for decades, township revenues come almost exclusively from local property taxes. In recent years however, those levies have maxed out against a 90-cent cap per $100 of assessed valuation, meaning that income stays flat while costs continue to rise.
Much of the burden has been assumed by the county, which currently pays 77.7 percent of the cost for maintenance gravel in each township, a formula that translates to $525 per mile of road for the county and $150 per mile as the township's share.
Given the number of gravel roads in what is geographically the state's fifth largest county, that is simply not enough money, Stiens said.
Current gravel costs mean Nodaway townships will spread between 42 and 50 tons of gravel per mile on their roads this spring and summer, which Stiens said is about half the amount needed to do the job right.
In addition to expensive rock, Stiens said the county is also receiving fewer transportation dollars from the state, because those funds are derived from gasoline taxes, and more and motorists are opting for energy efficient vehicles.
To regain some of the lost ground, townships have begun asking their voters to approve "rock bonds," a financing scheme requiring townships to pay back the borrowed money in three years.
That's not a completely satisfactory system, since there is no guarantee the bonds will pass, and the roads still need to be graveled regardless of what voters decide.
Page 2 of 2 - Nodaway is not the only county that's struggling to keep rural roads in passable condition, and some, including Atchison to the west and Andrew to the south, have implemented a countywide transportation sales tax.
Another possible source of new revenue is a proposal by the Missouri Legislature that would give voters a chance to approve a 1-cent statewide sales tax earmarked for transportation infrastructure. Proponents say such a tax would raise nearly $7.92 billion, 5 percent of which would flow back to the counties.
A third solution that no one really wants to think about for now is the path taken by the majority of Missouri counties — end the township system and increase revenues, meaning taxes, at the county level.
The commission has stopped short of calling for change that drastic, but Stiens admits it's something voters may have to confront someday.
"We've got to do something," he said.

This is a beautiful antique gate leg table
made out of walnut. First introduced in England
in the 16th century. The table top has a fixed section
and one or two hinged legs which when not
in use hang vertically. As such, a gate leg
is a subset of the type known as a drop leaf.
The Hinged section , or flap is supported
on pivoted legs joined at the top and bottom
by stretchers constituting a gate.
Large flaps had two supports, which had
the advantage of providing freer leg space
in the center. Typically the table legs are
supported by stretchers. The earliest
gate leg tables of the 16th and 17th
century were
typically made of oak.

"When people play Lara, they don't really project themselves into the character," says Crystal Dynamics' executive producer, Ron Rosenberg. "They're more like 'I want to protect her.' There's this sort of dynamic of 'I'm going to this adventure with her and trying to protect her.'" The new Lara is set to suffer in ways that the previous Lara never had to deal with, including attempted rape. "She is literally turned into a cornered animal," explained Rosenberg. "It's a huge step in her evolution: she's forced to either fight back or die."

You know, the weekend didn't really go in the general direction I wanted it to, but it was ok anyway.
For one thing, I think I have a bad filling, or something, as I had a bit of tooth pain going on. I don't have time to deal with it this week, so it can just stop for awhile.
Part of the reason is that my cable internet didn't get installed, as the feeder line is bad and needs to be replaced, so we are going to try again Wednesday. So that bit. Instead of downloading the internet, I somehow managed to end up at the Mall Of America buying Lego mini figs and food. The food wasn't Lego, in case that wasn't clear.
Sunday we cleaned. Lots. I sucked a bit of clove to calm down my tooth. Seriously, I don't want to deal with this now. Played some Old World Blues on Fallout New Vegas. Complained that it took too long to download on my DSL. Sighed.
It was a decent weekend, but it sure went sideways on me.
You go have a day.

There's a possibility I'll install a second SSD into my machine for dual boot into Windows 7 (for the sole reason that the hackintosh will beat the crap out of my gaming PC) and it would be useful if I could just leave the bridge installed for W7 use instead of having to remove it for OS X.

"Mitt Romney was the straw that broke the camel's back," said Chuck Suter, a Ron Paul supporter who organized events for the presidential campaign.
Suter, who supported Rand Paul throughout Ron Paul's presidential campaign, said that the Romney endorsement was incredibly difficult to defend. He said he took heat from outspoken Ron Paul supporters.
Suter said that Rand Paul's filibuster provided some vindication.
"What last night did for me was it affirmed everything that I had done even when it was hard for me to go out and defend Rand when he endorsed Romney," Suter said. "Last night was the shining jewel of what Rand Paul is all about, to play politics where his father may have not."
Hammered by conservatives on Twitter to #StandWithRand, a number of more establishment senators streamed into the Senate to relieve Paul of his speaking duties and support his cause.
They included Sen. Marco Rubio, who many see as the frontrunner for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination and someone who Ron Paul supporters view as anointed by the establishment.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, the personification of "establishment" to many Paul supporters, also took part.
To many Paul supporters, that sort of high-profile backing was icing on the cake.
"Everybody use to say there is no point in working with the GOP because of the mindset that there is no way that you can get Mitch McConnell and Marco Rubio to stand on the ... floor like that," Suter said. "Last night changed things."
And although Paul has said he won't make a decision about a 2016 race until next year, his prolonged filibuster has warmed the mood among once doubtful libertarians.
"I wouldn't mind if Rand Paul was president," said Bush, a voter who said he isn't sure he even support the idea of the presidency. "It would certainly be better than Marco Rubio or Mitt Romney or any of the other goons that the GOP will put up for the nomination."

"Welcome to the Club." That is what my uncle said to me after I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. It was not a club I wanted to join, but it was the way it was meant to be. At least I am in good company, my father, aunt and uncle are in the club with me. I hope that I will not have to share the phrase, "Welcome to the Club" with my children or nieces or nephews! That is why I want to raise funds for Type 1 Diabetes research -- to make sure the membership in this club does not increase!
I will be riding this July with my father. He was diagnosed in 1972, just after his 3rd birthday. Most kids that are diagnosed don't have family members with the disease, so they have no one who knows what it is like to live with diabetes. My father sympathizes with me when I am having a difficult time. Also, my father has been a great role model for me. He has taught me that diabetes is just something I have and have to take care of, but it is not something that is meant to prevent me from having a full active life. I am glad he will be riding with me so we can support each other.
I was diagnosed in February 2010. I was 9 years old. I had referred to myself as "almost diabetic" for a couple of years before my diagnosis. I knew I was "almost diabetic" because I had participated in study (partially funded by JDRF) that indicated I had 4 of the 5 auto-anitbodies that likely cause diabetes. So, it was only a matter of time before I was "totally diabetic".
My father and I thank you for you support in JDRF's efforts to find a cure for Type 1 Diabetes!

MURRAY, Ky. – Four University of Tennessee at Martin shooters set or tied five new career-highs on Saturday at the NCAA Qualifier held at the Pat Spurgin Rifle Range on the campus of Murray State University.
The mixed team compiled 4,587 points, firing 2,256 in smallbore and 2,331 in air rifle, tying fellow Ohio Valley Conference member Murray State in the event. OVC season champion Jacksonville State also competed in the event (4,664) while OVC member Columbus State, Memphis and Nebraska were set to compete on Sunday.
In smallbore, Steve Hahn led the mixed team with a score of 570. Jessica Cobb followed closely behind with a career-best score of 566, followed by Mark McClallen (562), Joe Barefoot (558) and Dana Maurizio (557).
Also competing as individuals for UT Martin was Kelly James (career-high 575), Jamie Arnett (career-best 563), Nikki Kroll (558, first 200 of the season in prone portion), Sean O'Brien (557), Jennifer Greeves (535) and Jacob Stolley (510).
Cobb and Maurizio each paced the Skyhawks in air rifle with an impressive score of 585, tying a career-high in that area for Maurizio. Hahn was just one point behind with his 584, while McClallen compiled 577 points. Barefoot rounded out the squad with his score of 566.
Arnett (career-best 576), Kroll (576), O'Brien (568), James (565), Jordan Goodwin (562) and Jordan Jensen (546) all competed as individuals for the Skyhawks.

See Skype being used in the workplace
We've just finished our first ever Skype for Business showcase. You can read about how [Skype For Business takes Lewis & Hickey architects into new world of Internet communications](http://about.skype.com/2007/01/skype_for_business_takes_lewis.html). Or even better you can watch the short video below to see the Lewis Hickey story first hand.
One thought on "See Skype being used in the workplace"
matienchi said 7 years ago
Honest opinion: Unspectacular!
The showcase is no more interesting than what I have seen from other VOIP providers.
I am a owner of a jewelery company in Taiwan and an avid user of Skype. I have a factory in Shenzhen and a showroom in Shanghai.
Skype has greatly reduced my telephone bills, of course, but telephones are much more reliable. I still use telephones for important calls.
The irreplaceable advantage of Skype for me is the video, for seeing objects and documents.
"Virtually bring my staff to my desk!" is what I do with Skype video.
I can convey my design concepts with 3D models, show hand sketches, and point out required improvements using skype video
Reversely, I can inspect product quality, check office environment, and audit invoices (there is no way of forging a document under a live camera).
The cost saved in couriering the samples is great, and the time saved is absolute.
I even started to give away specially made webcams to my clients as part of our customers service program. so they can show us samples and defective products.
I suppose skype video is not emphasised in your showcase, because most people associates video with "face-to-face meetings", which has no real added benefit in a conversation between two persons well acquainted with each other.
We may not care to see each other's faces, but are certainly interested in seeing things we want to show.
The link below is a demo video showing a webcam i commissioned. You will see how effective it is in conveying ideas to a remote staff.
I am selling the webcam to other jewelers, because we do not produce CAD drawings in our business. Seeing the actual model is critical.
However, I feel seeing actual objects or settings in real time should be very important for other businesses as well. I would be really happy if the real estate developer can show me on Skype video the progress of construction of a resort home I bought 90 km away.

I've heard Toru Tagawa perform the violin before at this same church and also just recently at a Christmas show at St. Agustine Cathedral, and he is a very talented musician. Don't miss this upcoming show.
